Final chapter of storied career Retirement tea Feb. 15 from 2 to 4 p.m. BY TIM FITZGERALD Mission Record
As Chantel Waite packs her bags and bundles up her twoyear-old granddaughter Charlie Ellison at the end of Babytime at the Mission Library, she can’t
help but fight back tears. For the past 35 years Elspeth Bowers has channeled a lifelong passion for literacy into her career at the library. She is as recognizable figure at the library as the thousands of books that line the shelves. But like any great novel, it must come to an end. For Elspeth, Friday, Feb. 15 will mark the end of the chapter of her career at the Mission Library. Three-and-a-half
decades of sharing her passion for the written word will be punctuated with a retirement tea and social Friday afternoon from 2 to 4 p.m. at the library. For Waite, the idea of not seeing Elspeth’s face and hearing her voice once a week leaves her chocked with emotion. “She’s such an amazing person,” she said. “She’s an anchor for our week. She provides such a rich environment for parents and kids.
She’s enriched so many lives in the community. It’s so sad to know she’s leaving.” Nicole Milne and her six-mothold daughter Talia wave goodbye for one of the last times. The young mother also laments the community’s loss. “She has such a passion and love for our children that’s not seen very often,” noted Milne.

Mission’s Library’s Elspeth Bowers sings a song with six-month-old Talia during Baby Time. Bowers, the 2006 recipent of the B.C. Community Achievement Award for her work in literacy, is retiring from the Mission Library, Friday, Feb. 15 with a tea and social from 2 to 4 p.m.
Premier Christy Clark kicked off the pre-election legislature session Tuesday with a pledge to establish a new fund from natural gas exports to support social programs and pay down debt. The main purpose of the “British Columbia Prosperity Fund” will be to pay down debt, starting in 2017 when the first liquefied natural gas facilities begins to ship LNG for export from the northern coast to Asian markets. It will be funded by a tax on LNG exports, as well as gas producers’ corporate taxes and traditional natural gas royalty revenues. The new fund is patterned after Alberta’s Heritage Fund, set up in 1976 as a legacy for Alberta’s oil and gas revenues. The B.C. fund would receive an estimated $100 billion from LNG revenues over 30 years, based on an assumption of five LNG production facilities exporting gas from the KitimatPrince Rupert region. The plan was presented in the throne speech delivered Tuesday by Lieutenant Governor Judith Guichon, to open a four-week legislature session leading up to the May 14 provincial election. The key task for the B.C. Liberal government in that session is to pass legislation returning the provincial sales tax to B.C. effective April 1, and the speech hinted at relieving that tax as one use for the new fund. “Whether it is eliminating the provincial sales tax, or making long-term

Jepsen attends Grammys with two nominations BY JASON ROESSLE Black Press
Mission’s Carly Rae Jepsen graced the red carpet for the first time at the 55th annual Grammy Awards Sunday night, where she was nominated in two categories. The 27-year-old local songstress has had an incredibly successful year with her hit single Call Me Maybe, and has toured internationally, and won acco-
lades across the globe. Call Me Maybe was up for Song of the Year honours, against stiff competition which included The A Team, by Ed Sheeran, and Adorn by Miguel Pimentel. Fun’s We Are Young won the category. Jepsen was also in the running for Best Pop Solo Performance, alongside Kelly Clarkson, Katy Perry and Rihanna, but Adele, with Set Fire to the Rain, took the trophy.
Call Me Maybe earned top spot in the Canadian charts in 2012, and in the United States, the song climbed to number one on the Billboard Hot 100 and the Pop Songs chart. In addition, the massively popular tune is one of the best-selling digital singles of all time with more than 10 million copies sold. Jepsen was in Mission in December playing a free concert to local fans at the Clarke Theatre.

Forestry department made $621,000 profit in 2012 A significant increase in the number of trees harvested in the district has boosted the municipality’s bottom line. Mission’s forestry department recorded more than $621,000 in profits for 2012, according to a report present to council Feb. 4. The
profits come on the heels of an off year for the department. Mayor Ted Adlem said he admittedly was the first person to jump on forestry when it lost money. He said he wanted to thank the forestry management director Kim Allan of for the $800,000 turnaround.
Allan said the rise in profits were projected to come in around $411,000, but an unexpected sale of harvested trees, higher timber prices at the end of the fiscal year, and tighter controls on expenditures boosted the department’s fortunes. The forestry department is enter-
ing the final year of it’s five year forestry cycle and expects to scale back how many trees it will cut in 2013. According to the report, profits for 2013 are projected at $130,000. That would mean the district’s forestry reserve fund would sit at roughly $900,000.
While staff looks into where some of the reserve will be spent, an option being considered is paying down the best on the remaining financing of the forestry department’s excavator. Purchased at more than $430,000, the district still owes about $250,000.

NDP leader Adrian Dix said the government’s focus on LNG development is at odds with its heavily advertised jobs plan, with little mention of forestry, mining, tourism, film and TV production or high technology. The government missed its natural gas revenue targets in a budget update six months ago, so projecting LNG revenues many years in the future is questionable at best, he said. The government estimates that if B.C.’s LNG mega-project develops as expected, and all of the fund’s revenues are directed to debt reduction, B.C.’s $56-billion debt could be paid off within a decade. The province currently pays about $2.5 billion a year in interest on the debt. There has been a rush of international investment interest in northeastern B.C.’s shale gas deposits. Companies include Mitsubishi Corp., Shell Canada, China National Petroleum Corporation and Petronas, a trans-national gas player owned by the government of Malaysia.

There’s a story behind every smile...
Elspeth Bowers of the Mission Library shares a laugh as two-year-old Charlie, left, and the rest of the moms and tots play during babytime last Tuesday. TIM FITZGERALD PHOTO
Bowers a ‘champion’ in Mission: MacLeod From CAREER Page 1
For Elspeth, the time to say goodbye is proving to be hard. As she reflects on her work over the years, she recalls fondly the countless encounters she’s had with those who have come to her and told her what a difference she’s made in her life. With a smile, she says it’s that recognition that’s been her driving force. “Living in the community where I work has really been a rich and wonderful experience,” she explains. “There’s these all teenagers and adults that all have this warm, fuzzy memories of me as the story lady. I can walk by a group of teens, doing their teen things, and one of them will inevitably say, ‘hey, you tell the greatest stories.’ That’s what’s satisfying to me. Knowing I’ve made a difference.” Elspeth says it’s amazing to reflect on her years, remember vividly reading to a child and now recognize that same face, all grown up, come through the library doors bringing their own children to story time. When she started her career, she did so because of her love children and their endless potential. The vital role that literacy plays in their lives meant so much to her, she notes. And as
time passed, it was this fuel that flamed her desire to continue to pass on the critical skills she has honed. “As the years have gone by and I kept on doing it, I realized that what I am offering these kids and their families is hugely important. Giving the gift of language, and words and stories, is way up there with food and love and shelter and all those basic things we give our children.” As she sets to retire, she says it’s the young faces she will miss most. But her retirement is one which she chose. She’s not being forced out the door, but rather leaving on her own terms. She says she wouldn’t want to be one of those people who stayed at her job too long, that her love for her work had been extinguished. So she looks forward to being able to focus on the other joys in her life. Her small farm and greenhouse house will garner more of her attention, but her work within the community will continue to grow. For Mission Library manager Teresa MacLeod, saying goodbye will prove to be difficult, but knowing Elspeth won’t be far away is comforting. “I have been witness to her dedication to libraries and literacy. Her story times weave an incredible magic with children
and their families and her stellar reputation for story time is widespread throughout the community,” says MacLeod. She said Elspeth’s dedication was rewarded with the B.C. Community Achievement Award in 2006. But what stands out most for MacLeod is not the awards or her ability to weave a compelling story, but rather it was that intimate knowledge of literature and recognizing the importance it plays in the lives of the children and teens she so passionately worked with. While patrons of the Mission library may be able to lean on the web to track down lists of great children and teen books, it’s Elspeth’s opinion that mattered most, said MacLeod. Children, parents, and teachers made sure they would consult with the self-described book junkie for what should be at the top of their list. “She constantly reads for her own pleasure, and as a result is able to advise library patrons of the latest and the best that literature has to offer to young people,” noted MacLeod. “She’s someone they trust.” Elspeth’s love of her work extends far beyond the Mission Library walls. She says she will continue to be an advocate for literacy in the community working with the literacy fair, the Riot of Reading in Mission.
MacLeod says it’s a program that may not have survived without Elspeth’s dedication and drive to organize the many volunteers and agencies involved. She will continue her dedication to the popular parentchild Mother Goose programs, as well as the Mission Literacy in Motion and Early Childhood Development programs. MacLeod says the Mission Library and the community as a whole will forever be a richer place because of her work. While she’s a little sad to see her go, she’s grateful for the contributions she’s made to the generations of people who’ve come to know and love her work. “Without fear of contradiction, I can say that Elspeth Bowers is a champion in the Mission area for her knowledge of books, her dedication, her love of story, her desire to connect kids with books, her advocacy for the library, and her fervent belief in literacy.” For Elspeth, her retirement is another chapter she looks forward to writing. “The community has given back to me in such a huge way, and for that I will forever be grateful. “But I’m still going to be out there. I may be retiring from the library, but my work in the community is far from over.”

Doyle will be missed
The B.C. Auditor-General, John Doyle, will not accept an extension to his term, as offered by a legislative committee which initially said it did not want to renew his contract. He has instead accepted an appointment as auditor-general of the Australian state of Victoria. Doyle has rubbed the Liberal government the wrong way on many occasions. One such Liberal was MLA Eric Foster, whose expenses in regards to renovations of his constituency office in Vernon were not properly accounted for. The building was owned by his constituency assistant’s husband, and even though Foster was being audited, he chaired the committee which recommended Doyle not be re-appointed. Another area where Doyle dismayed the government was in looking into the $6 million in legal expenses paid by the government after Dave Basi and Bob Virk agreed to plead guilty in the B.C. Rail case. Not only was this reimbursement against government policy, it came about in mid-trial, just as former finance minister Gary Collins was set to testify. While B.C. Supreme Court has ruled that Doyle cannot have access to the detailed expenses billed by Basi and Virk’s lawyers, this information will come out eventually — perhaps through a public inquiry, which other political parties have pledged to call, should the Liberals be defeated in the May election. Doyle said Tuesday that he was prepared to stay in B.C. for a full second term of six years. However, the committee only offered him two more years, after prodding from the premier, and he wasn’t prepared to take that, given how political the entire issue had become. An auditor-general is expected to ask thorough questions and act as an advocate for taxpayers. Doyle has done that very well, and he will be sorely missed. - Langley Times

Independent MLAs have a dream

magine a province where party leaders are chosen in an independently supervised vote, with 12-year-olds, dead people and pets prevented from voting. Imagine a province where roving gangs of influenceseekers aren’t allowed to join multiple parties, and the rule is actually enforced. One where corporations and unions have to advertise in their own name instead of financing political parties and then disclosing millions in donations months after the election is over. Imagine a province where elections are held based on audited financial statements, not a collection of election promises that will be dismissed as a work of fiction by the new regime if the incumbent party is defeated.

hopes for one fundamental reform, moving B.C.’s set election date from the spring to the fall. This would take a simple amendment. The idea is for the government to table the annual budget, present the audited public accounts for the previous year, then have an election that rests on tested financial statements and initial results for the current forecast. Both the BC Liberal Party and the NDP have expressed support for this idea. The independents suggest that this brief three-week legislative session is a good time to do it, so the next government can implement it. I asked Mike de Jong, the BC Liberal finance minister and house leader, if he would consider it. He allowed that it is interesting, but it’s not contemplated for the pre-election session. That will be dominated by returning the provincial sales tax, and the usual jousting over untested spending and revenue proposals.

Living wage would deliver positive change for families Editor, The Record: Re: Rai running for NDP in May election, Jan. 10 edition. As an Abbotsford school trustee, I’m sure Preet Rai is well aware that the Liberal government’s chronic underfunding of education has adversely impacted children in this province. Locally, we’ve experienced school closings, cuts in programs, fewer secondary level course offerings, etc. because school trustees must wrestle with the problem of balancing a budget that does not receive enough money to adequately meet children’s needs. Despite its claims otherwise, the current government has not made
educating our children a priority. While it is true that B.C. schools are experiencing a decline in enrolment, it is the government’s failure to plan for such fluctuation that has created the current crisis in education. By using a funding formula based on enrolment, the government sets up a condition whereby the quality of a child’s education depends on the number of students going through the system at the same time. Whichever party wins the May election, it is time the government re-thinks how it funds education; the new government should engage in long-term planning that takes into account the inevitable ebbs and

flows of student numbers. Just as I hope Mr. Rai will use his experience as a school trustee to highlight educational issues during his campaign, I think he should also draw attention to the fact that B.C. has one of the highest numbers of children living in poverty in Canada. Mr. Rai wishes to deliver positive “change for families in our community.” Ensuring people receive, at the very least, a living wage is a good place to start. It is inexcusable that we have children coming to school experiencing food and housing insecurities. Kate Ross Mission

Long commutes can have a negative effect on marriages Editor, The Record: As Mission is a bedroom community and about three-quarters of us commute out of town for work, does long distance commuting affect your marriage? And if so, how? Studies conducted worldwide suggest the longer the commute, the poorer the marriage. The rate of divorce increases significantly as the length of the commute increases. Findings report a 45/40 ratio, a 45-minute commute (one-way) correlates with a 40 per cent increase of divorce. It was also found that the probability of divorce happening occurs within the first five years of commuting. The largest of these studies conducted to date used data from more than two million spouses in Sweden between 1995-2005. Applying these find-
ings to our community is quite upsetting since a large percentage of us commute great distances to work. The reasons for having to commute vary. Most of us simply want to live the suburban dream. The trend in our community is that young couples purchase homes as they are affordable, and Mission provides an opportunity to have a larger house, and more property than in the GVRD area. The average Missionite spends about two full days a month driving to and from work. One must not forget, the further we drive the fatter we get, the lonelier we become, the more stressed we are, the more socially isolated we become and the more pain our bodies endure. Also, being sedentary for long periods of time, we don’t have time or energy to look after our children properly, let
alone ourselves and our overall quality of life is decreased. One has to prioritize what is important to them when choosing to reside in a bedroom community like ours if they commute long distances to work. If having a healthy marriage is near the top of your list, you must consciously choose to work on it and yourself to be more spiritually, emotionally and mentally balanced to make your marriage work. Just to clarify, I love where I live, I love my life, and I wouldn’t choose to call home anywhere else. I feel compelled as a member of our community to create awareness around the effects of long-distance commuting to work has. It’s important to highlight the social consequences that commuting entails. For instance, how are children affect-

ed by growing up with one or both parents commuting long distances to work and how marriages suffer as a result. I believe as a community we must demand decent paying jobs and more of them be created in this district. Artur Gryz Mission

Owners should pick up dog waste Editor, The Record: I am concerned about the number of vehicles which bring one to five dogs to the Heritage Park and Grotto area daily. Some of these dogs are taken off their leashes and allowed to run free. Persons who are bringing not only one or two, but up to five dogs to the area should be made responsible for cleaning up after their animals and assuring they remain

within their designated trail area. I personally have yet to see even one of the dog owners carrying a bag, although I am certain there are some responsible people who do clean up. As for the rest, I must assume that their animal’s droppings are left where they fall. I have recently observed that there were no less than 10 and perhaps more dogs which were
wandering in the direction of the Blackberry Restaurant, and for the most part, are allowed to run free. There are at least 100 or more dogs that normally come to the park on a daily basis. I have been advised that there are dog feces all over the grounds, and I am certain this is not a pleasant experience for those that are encountering this as they walk in the park.
Vehicles bringing these dogs park next to the Mews all along Seventh Avenue, and take up the majority of the parking spaces, some of which should be available to persons who come to visit residents of that large complex. I would like to see resident parking only signs in this area, and also at least 14 visitor spots, and public parking when special events are taking

Column was well written Editor, The Record: Re: Inconvenient truth, Jan. 17, 2013 edition Congratulations to Tom Fletcher on his well-considered and clear thoughts on the environment and the need for a viable Canadian resource-based economy. The high standard of living of Canadians was built on resource extraction and the sales of those resources into the world markets. Moreover, our continued health and wealth depends on us doing more of the same in the most environmentally responsible way. If we look at the origin of the oilsands, we must agree that it is nothing more than a millionyear-old natural oil spill, caused by the formation of the Rocky Mountains. As a modern nation, we would be negligent if we did not clean it up and use the hydrocarbons to build a new economy with alternate and improved energy sources. Thanks again, Tom, for your clarity and let’s all work towards maintaining a health environment. Gord McIvor Mission

No reversal on smart meters, Coleman insists But it’s unclear what happens after ‘re-education’ effort BY JEFF NAGEL Black Press
Energy Minister Rich Coleman says smart meters won’t be forced into homes over the next few months but he denied reports the province has reversed its policy and will let objectors opt out of having the wireless devices. “We’re going back to talk to our customers,” he said. “We’ll not force any customer to take a meter.” Coleman said he believes most smart meter opponents will ultimately agree to take them after they talk to BC Hydro reps. But exactly what will happen to holdouts who resist to the end is unclear. Coleman said the next steps would be decided after “some re-education” and an effort to work with objectors in a “respectful” way. “[We’ll] see how many at the end of maybe two or three months we have left and then we’ll have a conversation about where we go from here,” he said. Asked whether the meters will ultimately be mandatory, Coleman said: “I’m not going to make that decision until I see the results of the next couple of months. “Out of respect for our customers, we go through that first without coming with whatever program would come later.” BC Hydro officials said earlier this week they will take more

without permission in households who oppose them. Coleman had also
indicated that in an earlier op-ed piece. NDP energy critic John
Horgan accused the Liberals of making a muddled attempt to neutralize the contentious issue ahead of the provincial election. “They want to reduce the amount of frustration they find in communities right across B.C.,” Horgan said. He said the attempt to punt the issue to after the May 14 vote has only confused the public, adding MLA offices have been “swamped by concerned citizens who want answers.” For months, wireless meter opponents have posted notices and in some cases built cages or
other structures around their old analog meters to keep Hydro contractors from converting them. But those who didn’t take such steps and now have a smart meter won’t be allowed to switch back — no matter how the province ultimately handles the final holdouts. “We can’t remove a smart meter once it has been installed because they are now standard operating equipment like utility poles and power lines,” BC Hydro spokesman Greg Alexis said in an e-mailed statement. “Also, the old meters are being recycled and are no

More than 1.74 million smart meters have so far been installed province-wide, pointing to a penetration rate of at least 93 per cent, with a combination of holdouts and accepting customers still to go. Horgan said an NDP government would ask the B.C. Utilities Commission to advise on how best to deal with households who refuse the new meters.

presented the 2013 property assessment report to council last week. Assessments are based on properties’ market values as of July 1 each year, said Shah. A final look is taken Oct. 31 to see if there have been zoning changes, or any new construction or upgrades. In Mission, overall values for 2013 remained relatively flat. Stratas have seen values range from a two per cent drop in some areas while increasing in
value by two per cent in others. Single-family dwellings weren’t far off, dropping between one per cent to rising by three per cent, based on location. Both commercial and industrial land rose by as much as five per cent in Mission, while land under development remained static. In total, property values for residential homes in 2013 sits at $4.57 billion, up from $4.51 billion in 2012. Business proper-
ties also jumped in 2013, up to $398 million in assessments, compared to $376.6 million in 2012. Overall, Shah said values in the district rose $800,000 from 2012 to $5.08 billion. “We’re an organization that’s very open,” said Shah, noting that anyone can get access to their own property assessment and compare it to those in the neighbourhood.

Electricity surplus costly, NDP says BY TOM FLETCHER Black Press
BC Hydro stands to lose $1 billion over the next four years by selling surplus power at a loss, NDP energy critic John Horgan said Monday. Horgan renewed the NDP’s long-standing criticism of the B.C. Liberal government’s push for electricity self-sufficiency, and its requirement that all new clean energy sources be privately developed. Long-term purchase contracts signed under that policy mean BC Hydro can expect to lose more than $1 billion by 2015, Horgan said at a news conference at the legislature. He based his calculations on documents BC Hydro released when it filed its application last week for an environmental assessment for the proposed Site C dam on the Peace River. The environmental impact statement for the dam shows an expected surplus of 5,200 gigawatt-hours for 2013 and similar surpluses out to 2015. Horgan said the current information suggests BC Hydro will have a surplus for the next 10 years. “We’re purchasing at $94 a megawatt-hour, and we can sell it for $37 a megawatt-hour [on the spot market],” Horgan said. “The net difference being $57 per megawatthour for power we do not need, power that BC Hydro was forced to purchase because of aggressive B.C. Liberal energy policy.” Energy Minister Rich Coleman said Horgan is using a “snapshot” of today’s low spot market and extending the same demand and prices far into the future. The province has numerous mine projects underway or seeking approval, and liquefied natural gas export proposals are proliferating in northern B.C. that are also likely to increase demand for electricity, he said. Coleman said the North American electricity market has likely reached bottom, with the U.S. using its own cheap natural gas to generate electricity and still suffering a slow economy with low power demand. BC Hydro’s Powerex division continues to buy and sell power, using

dam capacity to effectively store power and sell it when prices are higher. Coleman said Powerex stands to make $200 million this fiscal year on electricity trading. One of B.C.’s moneymakers is wind power produced with U.S. government subsidies. Wind power can’t be stored, so Powerex buys excess power at a nominal cost and uses it while storing water in BC Hydro dams.

Priestley best impromptu speaker in province Mission Toastmaster Jo Priestley was named the best impromptu speaker in the province and was awarded a trophy for winning the District 21 (provincial level) Table Topics contest recently. The trophy was presented by District 21 Lt. Governor Education and Training Darren Frew. Priestley earned the provincial distinction after going through many levels and defeating nine contestants from more than 280 clubs along the way. Table Topics are impromptu speeches, about a minute or two in length, on a surprise topic. Priestley describes it as “just talking,” and says practising this kind of dialogue allows her to be more comfortable in her business dealings with clients.

What’s What’s Happening Happening in Mission in Mission
DON’T BE A GROUCH. Our attitude and the way we treat others affects the people around us and also influences our own outlook on life. Being nasty or grouchy serves no purpose and will not make our day any better or our tasks any easier. Being a grouch is just being mean, and no one wants to be around a mean person. Someone that develops a positive attitude and a pleasant personality usually has a more enjoyable and contented life. We realize that someone’s personality is normally developed and formed at an early age; however, being aware of our negative inclinations can help us to be better, more positive people. Being assertive is quite different from being mean and nasty. In the Bible, Jesus was assertive, but He was never nasty, mean or obnoxious. God loves His people, and everything that He does is because of His great love for all mankind. When we smile and show a gentler attitude, we reflect God’s love and things just seem to go better.
As God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. N.I.V. Colossians 3:12

INTENSIVE CORE FRENCH INFORMATION NIGHT
Intensive Core French is a second language teaching approach in which French is taught intensively for most of the day over five months throughout the Grade 6 year. The students in the program receive about 80% of their instruction in French during the first half of the year and 20% in French during the second half of the year. The remaining curricula (except for Mathematics) are “compressed” into the second half of the year. This optional program offers an alternative method of Core French Instruction for Grade 6 students.
This is not a French Immersion program but rather an alternative language acquisition program for those students interested in building their language skills more rapidly.
In Today’s World Bilingualism is an Asset
• Don’t miss your chance, space is limited! Registration will begin on Wednesday, February 20th, 2013 for students entering Grade Six in September 2013. • Intensive Core French is part of the Public School system. • Parents do not need French language knowledge or background. • There is no cost to participate. • Learning French as a second language opens many great opportunities such as travel, public speaking, French entertainers and much more. • Increases abilities to learn further languages.

Smith, Wiens UBC-bound Coach not surprised by players’ success BY TIM FITZGERALD Mission Record
A pair of Mission gridiron greats are changing their feathers come September. Offensive standouts Kevin Wiens and Hyatt Smith are taking their game to the University of British Columbia Thunderbirds after signing letters of intent recently. Both players contemplated a number of options, including heading to Kingston, Ont. to play for the Golden Gales at Queens University and taking the NCAA route through Simon Fraser, but settled on UBC after lengthy consideration. The pair said continuing to be able to play together after their success in Mission was one of the leading factors in making the choice. “It’s going to be great heading to school with Kevin,” said Smith. “I think it will make the transition easier and I can’t wait to get going.” Smith, who played wide receiver for the Roadrunners, is coming of a torn ACL that cost him most of his senior year. After surgery in December, the focus has been on rehabbing his knee and hitting the books. While football has a storied tradition at UBC, academics always come first. That was also a leading factor in where the two decided to continue Final their education.

“It was definitely a combination of athletics and being able to get a great education,” said Smith. “I was really impressed with the campus.” While Smith works his way back to health — doctors estimate he’ll be healed up by June — Wiens has been working on his game south of the border. He joined the top provincial football prospects on Team B.C. for a road trip in early January to Texas for two exhibition games. Team B.C. faced a squad of European allstars and a highly anticipated match against the U.S. Wiens, who along with Smith won backto-back provincial titles in Grades 10 and 11, said while Team B.C. was confident going into the game against their European counterparts, the same can’t be said when they were lining up against the Americans. “Things went pretty much as we expected
against Europe,” noted Wiens, who recorded an interception in Team BC’s 49-14 thrashing of the overseas’s team. “But when it was time to play against the States, you get a little bit worried.” Wiens had every right to be nervous. Not only were they playing against the U.S., they were playing in the great state of Texas, where the only thing more popular than football is, well, more football. There are more than 1,300 high school football facilities in the Lone Star State, 10 of them seating 16,000plus. Playing in Texas, in his mind, was a completely different animal. That is, until the contest started. “Once the game got underway, that nervousness went away. We played really well and showed we could compete,” said Wiens. So much so that Team BC completed its own proverbial football clinic, trouncing their American counterparts 38-18.

“It’s a huge boost of confidence,” said Wiens, who helped lead his team to the provincial finals in 2012, losing to South Delta 31-14. The success of both players is no surprise to Roadrunners head coach Kevin Watrin. He said the pair put in the hard work needed to take their game to the next level, both on the field and in the classroom. With long days of travel on game days, school work has to fit into the schedule when it can. He said their success is shared with the team’s coaching staff and the commitment of teachers who put in the extra time helping student athletes meet their educational goals. “This confirms what we preach at the school,” said Watrin. “We want to win on the field but we strive for success in the classroom. It’s testament to all the hard work by the boys and the teachers who give up their time to make sure students succeed academically as well.”

NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING DISTRICT OF MISSION DISTRICT OF MISSION NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING
Keep dogs on leash The municipality often receives calls from concerned citizens regarding dogs running lose, either on our neighbourhoods or in our parks. We thought it might be helpful to review the bylaws with regard to care and control of dogs. To that end, the following excerpts are provided from our bylaws. Bylaw No. 217-1972 “A Bylaw to Regulate the Use of Parks within the District of Mission” states that “no person shall allow, suffer or permit any animal to enter into or upon any park or to run at large in any park. This section shall not apply to persons leading their animals by a leash and restricting the travels of their animals to pathways.” It also includes that no person shall suffer or permit: • any dog or large animal owned, possessed or harboured by him to run at large or to trespass in or upon any private lands or premises; • any dog owned, possessed or harboured by him to be on a highway or any public place unless such dog is on a leash and is under the control of a person who is competent to control the dog;
• any large animal owned, possessed or harboured by him to run, stray or trespass on any highway, or public place or to grace on unfenced land unless it is securely tethered. The owner of every dog shall, at all times when such dog is not on a leash and under the control of a person who is competent to control the dog, keep such dog securely confined on the premises owned or controlled by the owner by keeping the dog indoors, within a fenced area sufficient to prevent the escape of the dog or securely tethered in such a manner as to prevent the dog from leaving the premises.” The municipality provides contract animal control and bylaw enforcement services however available resources do not allow for these services 24 hours-a-day, seven days-a-week. It is incumbent on every dog owner to obey the bylaws related to their responsibilities, and to consider the rights of others. Mission Animal Control hours are 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., seven days-a-week, excluding statutory holidays and can be reached by calling 604-826-4496.
Gas station fire safety Most of us, on a regular basis, will take our vehicles to a local gas station to fill up, unaware of all the safety features that have been installed to minimize the risk of fire or explosion. Despite this, accidents or carelessness while fueling vehicles does result in fires. The B.C. Fire Code addresses many of the safety issues, but ultimately the customer is responsible for their own safety. Education and understanding are
the best weapons in fire prevention. Here are some fire facts to think about the next time you are fueling your vehicle. The key to fire safety in gas stations is to eliminate all ignition sources. Do not smoke, not even inside the vehicle while fueling. Leave the ignition completely off, including the radio. shut off cellphones and pagers and when filling containers make sure they are approved for use as a gas container.
Be sure to fill them on the ground, not in the vehicle and not in the back of a pick up because it could create a static charge, especially when filling nonconductive containers made of plastic. Just a few moments of forethought is a great investment in your safety. For any fire questions you can contact Mission Fire/ Rescue Service at 604-820-3794, or visit website www.mission. ca/fire.

Ensure Rot Pot and garbage set out by 8 a.m. Residents using their Rot Pots to divert food waste continue to make a
huge difference in how much waste is trucked to the landfill. Thank you for
keeping up the effort and reducing greenhouse gases along the way. With
colder weather and sometimes freezing conditions, food waste may stick to the inside of the Rot Pot. Please remember to place several sheets of crumpled up newspaper at the bottom of the bin, as
well as between layers of food waste to make it easier for materials to slide out. Your curbside collection crew is servicing an average of 1,840 households each day of the week, and trying to make the job
easier is only fair. Rot Pots are not bear-proof, so please also remember to always store your Rot Pot inside a shed, your garage, basement or bear-proof bin. Bear season may not be quite upon us, but
March is just around the corner, when bears will start to actively look for food. Set out your Rot Pot, as well as garbage and recycling by 8 a.m. on the morning of your collection day, and not the night before.

MASH and Cedar Valley Manor are working with Kate Mancer of Terra Lumina Life Lease to develop the project. Mancer is Canada’s foremost authority on life lease housing and the author of a book entitled The Future of Seniors Housing: Planning, Building and Operating Successful Seniors’ Housing Projects. “Life lease is the perfect mechanism for harnessing the energy and commitment of the nonprofit sector to develop and operate housing for seniors that provides a very high quality of life for its residents,” notes Mancer. Cedar Valley Manor is not unique given the hundreds of life lease projects throughout Canada. One of the biggest in the country is located in Surrey (Elim Village). They are popu-

lar because they work so well. Put simply, it is a cross between owning and renting. A non-profit sponsor owns the buildings, which is paid for by the people moving in. When they move out, they get 95 per cent of their money back. In the meantime, the building is managed by the nonprofit organization. In a recent research publica-
tion, Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation reported that every single life lease resident involved in the study was “extremely happy with their choice of housing.” What makes Cedar Valley Manor unique is that it will also be a “virtual retirement community,” a phenomenon that has grown quickly in the U.S. over the last decade.
Virtual retirement communities aren’t places — they are organizations that exist to provide services to their members. Services can range from advice on navigating the health system to finding appropriate volunteer opportunities to transportation. Cedar Valley Manor Connect will enable almost everyone to live there happily for the
remainder of their lives. Recent census stats indicate there are 10,093 people over the age of 55 now living in Mission. In 2036, it is estimated that there will be 19,913. With limited housing opportunities for this demographic; Mission will need to shift to meet this growing need. Over 70 per cent of the 55-plus population in
Mission lives in a single family house — in Abbotsford, that number declines to 40 per cent. Abbotsford has successfully developed 55-plus housing for more than a decade; in fact, there are two life leases from which to choose. Maple Ridge also has two life lease projects, although waiting lists in both communities are long, up to 12 years in some cases. Here, options are limited for those 55-plus looking to downsize, making Cedar Valley Manor a viable project. The economic impact of the building will also be significant. The last multi-storey residential project to open was The Mews in 2007. Cedar Valley Manor will provide 42 units and an estimated $67,000 in annual municipal tax revenue. Moreover, the contractor is interested in using local trades and suppliers. On average, every $1 of construction equals $2 of economic impact in a community, so Cedar Valley Manor will be of greater benefit to all in Mission. With a few more presales, construction on this innovative housing project will begin giving Mission’s 55-plus population an alternate choice for their housing need.

I
would like to thank those who nominated me, and I would like to thank our mayor and council for naming me, the District of Mission’s Citizen of the Year. This is an incredible distinction, that I am surprised and flattered by. Having grown up in Mission and having chosen to return in order to continue my father’s law practice, I have watched so many others donate their time and effort to the development and benefit of our community. I could not have imagined that one day I would be acknowledged in this way, as a member of this esteemed league of community builders. This is truly an honour and I thank you so much! The Citizen of the Year award has been granted to me in recognition of the work I have done in celebrating, promoting and badgering all three levels of government about the incredible value of the Fraser River to both our community and our region. As President of the Chamber, I was proud to stand at the BC Chamber AGM and speak to the policy we developed that will see the Fraser brought back to its use as a sustainable transportation route. Following much collaboration and education, we are beginning to see both our federal and provincial governments actively work together to resolve short-term barriers and to develop longer-term programs for our river’s maintenance. As I round out my presidency, I see the value in how this role allowed me to do the work for which I am being recognized. For supporting the community work we are able to achieve at the Chamber, I thank you! Elyssa Lockhart PRESIDENT

Business built around family By Kathleen Rake Click Media Works

n 2000, Michelle and Mike Norman opened Wine Kitz in Mission’s Junction Shopping Centre, with an eye to build a business that could include the whole family. Fast forward to 2005 and you find their family business bursting at the seams and ready to make a move to new facilities on London Avenue. Daughter Robyn Norman recently joined the team and today you find Michelle and
Robyn responsible for looking after all aspects of the business. “People come to us from all over the Fraser Valley,” said Michelle. “They are mostly from Mission, but some come from as far away as Chilliwack to work with us. They become our friends.” Customers at Wine Kitz can choose from five levels of wine-making kits: Ultra Premium, Premium, Value, Specialty and Limited Release. Less common varietal wines such as Petit Verdot and Brunello are offered on
a limited basis and varietal wines considered the signature of a region — Pinot Noir from New Zealand, and Shiraz from Australia, for example — are available more often. Many red, white or rosé varietal and blended-wine kits are available all year. “Our customers like the range of products they can make here. We have kits that take four, five or eight weeks,” shared Robyn. “We help our customers select the kind of wine and length of aging that will suit them and the wine
best. Everyone’s different.” In addition to the grape wine you can make every day, specialty seasonal wines, fruit wines and products like portand sherry-style wine kits are available. If you need advice about aging, decanting, etc., you get that, too. Wine Kitz is located at #133111 London Ave. It is open Tuesday to Friday, 9:30 a.m. to 6 p.m., and Saturday, 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Call 604-826-9529 or visit WineKitz.com for more information.

120 YEARS CELEBRATED
BusinessTRACK
Free land, tax exemptions and we’ll build your factory
I
n celebration of the Mission Regional Chamber of Commerce 120th year, a part of the Chamber’s story will be told on this page each month. We hope to capture how innovation, entrepreneurship and resiliency have shaped our district. You could say it all began with the “Great Sale of Mission City” back in 1891. Early land developers, Mr. F.S. Timberlake, Mr. L.H Mershon and Mr. J.W. Horne (street names we are all familiar with today) saw Mission’s potential and staged the event; attracting around 1,000
people who travelled by rail and two chartered steamboats, with the intention of purchasing property. Mission was dubbed as the “New York” of the west coast, with train terminus, docks and steamboat passage. Two years later, in 1893, the Mission Board of Trade was incorporated, following on the heels of Mission City’s incorporation. The fourth board of trade in B.C. to be given Queen’s Assent by the Canadian government; Mr. Harry Brown French was elected as its first president.
One of its first roles was to create an enticing package of incentives for business, which included free land, water, power and tax exemptions. As if all this wasn’t enough, they also offered to construct the factories, mills and commercial buildings for those that took them up on the offer. As a result, many new businesses moved to Mission, including the still present Mission City News (now known as The Mission Record). This was the beginning of the Chamber’s role in economic development of the region.

HAPPY THOUGHTS
I’m Helen Tingley on my 80th birthday, 2012 and I went ice skating! I haven’t skated for 48 years, since my son was two, he’s now 50! It was at Silverdale Lake that froze over in Mission, BC where I skated with my son, Wayne, in my arms and pulled him in a box with a rope. It was fun for my son, he enjoyed it and so did I! My friends from St. Mary’s Church choir, Chilliwack, came and watched me skate. I plan to go again, never too old to have fun! And to top it off I got a letter from the Queen for my 80th birthday which was very touching. I thank God for all this happening to me. He has really blessed me and took care of me because I pray a lot! Thank you God.
