Former councillor’s computers seized BY CAROL AUN Mission Record

Former Mission councillor Ron Taylor had three computers inside his home seized by RCMP Monday night. Around 7 p.m., three Mounties, one from Mission, Surrey and Chilliwack, armed with a search warrant took the equipment to look for alleged leaks from Mission council.

Taylor says he knew the district had asked for an RCMP investigation months ago and wasn’t surprised when they showed up on his doorstep, but he still thinks the move was inappropriate. Mounties confirmed two search warrants were executed simultaneously on Monday, but wouldn’t reveal where the two properties were located or who was the complainant. Mission RCMP has been conducting investigations into a breach of trust and breach of the

Community Charter for a while now, said Cpl. Holly Marks. “Computers were seized from both residences,” she noted, adding the investigation is ongoing, and no criminal charges have been laid. Taylor has been vocal against the district’s See ACTION Page 4

Man hit by train will survive A 49-year-old Mission resident is expected to survive after he was hit by a train Monday night, just west of the Mission Hills shopping centre on the north side of the tracks. Around 8:40 p.m., the train conductor saw a man on the tracks and blew the whistle. The man, who appeared to be observing the train, didn’t move back far enough, said Sgt. Miriam Dickson, noting the train had slowed down to about 50 km/h as it passed. The victim has taken to Royal Columbian Hospital via air ambulance with broken bones and abdominal injuries.

New trails and storyboards are just a couple of the added features at FRHP BY CAROL AUN Mission Record

Fraser River Heritage Park is blossoming this spring with new trails, benches and scenery for visitors to enjoy. The 2.3 kilometre walking path around the park is complete and new garden beds and storyboards depicting the park’s history and features are now being placed along the route. The trail branches off in a couple of areas, leading walkers to either the pond at Heritage Park Centre, the grotto or Hatzic. There is also a natural riparian area by the new bridge and a kiosk at each entrance to the park with maps and information. There are 49 new trees planted in the 44-acre park, some are native to the area, but others, such as cherry blossoms and garry oaks, just give it a different look, said Don Brown, manager of the Mission Heritage Association, which operates the park. A few mature trees, an oak, copper beech and liquid amber, were donated in memory of Mission writer Kuldip Gill and planted near the north side of the park, along with a fig tree, provided by the Donatelli family last year. Next, Brown hopes to have the orchard restored. One was established when the resi-

dential school was operating, he said, noting the project has been contemplated since the FRHP was formed in 1985. “It’s been started a number of times, but didn’t go through because of a lack of funding.” Some apple, black walnut, pear and cherry trees from the original orchard are still there, and organizers have plans to seed and plant more. There is also a mulberry tree which bears delicious fruit, but it wasn’t one of the earlier trees. Crews finished grading the orchard recently and park volunteers hope to sow grass seeds and begin planting soon. This week the group received a $2,500 grant from the Home Depot Canada Foundation to purchase heritage trees. Brown predicts it will be a challenge bringing water to the area as there are no sprinklers are water lines running through that section of the park. Everything at FRHP is grown naturally, without pesticides, including the rose garden.

“I’m calling this a learning park,” noted Brown. “I want to bring people in to learn something.” Teachers can bring students here to show them where Mission started, or people can learn about the local wildlife, which the trees and vegetation will attract. “There’s a lot of work to be done ... but it will be a wonderful addition,” said Brown, who gives volunteers a lot of recognition for all the work they put in. “This is truly a community park we’re creating.” The park is located on Mary Street, just off Fifth Avenue.

Blackberry Kitchen Chef Kerry Martin and partner Laurel Exner of Kela Cuisine, Inc. have taken over the operations of the Blackberry Kitchen at the Norma Kenney House, serving homemade soups, salads, and sandwiches at lunch and tapas and dinner entrees after 4 p.m. There is also a good wine list, unique cocktails and simple, yet tasty desserts. While the menus feature a smattering of Martin’s creations, it also pays tribute to some traditions of the past, such as fresh scones with blackberry jam and pots of tea. This used to be a tea house for many years run by volunteers, said Martin who has brought in a specialty coffee machine for those who desire something different. The menu will change with the seasons, but the food will remain simple and delicious, said Martin.

Police seek assistance in identifying suspects Mission Mounties are asking for the public’s help in identifying two men who assaulted and robbed a 29-year-old deaf and mute Mission resident. Around 8 p.m. on May 8, two men approached the victim near the corner oof Second Av e n u e aand Weltton Street, punched hhim and sstole his scooter, Dickson said Sgt. Miriam Dickson. There were two witnesses in the incident who listed both suspects as native males between 17 to 21 years old, about 5’10,” with a slim build. One of the suspects had black hair with frosted tips and was wearing a black and white hoodie and black pants. The second suspect is described as having black hair and wearing dark-coloured clothing. The victim suffered minor injuries. Anyone with information about this incident, or who can help identify the two suspects involved, is encouraged to call Mission RCMP at 604-826-7161. If you want to remain anonymous, call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

from residents who believe their rights were violated by the searches. The B.C. Civil Liberties Association is supporting the court action, but as of Monday, the district says it has not been served. Mayor James Atebe called the incident a police matter and declined to offer any comments.

A recently paved section of Cedar Street will have to be refinished after tests determined the asphalt wasn’t adequately compacted. Grandview Blacktop Ltd. completed the roadwork between Seventh and Cherry Avenues, last October, but by Christ-

mas, potholes were developing. By late March, about 95 per cent of the surface between 10 Avenue and Cherry were showing problems. An engineering firm confirmed the road was failing, but no other projects undertaken by Grandview Blacktop were showing any of these problems, according to a report by Matt

Dunham, Mission’s operations manager. Representatives from Grandview Blacktop met with district staff and discovered a mechanical failure in the company’s lead roller used on the project. Grandview Blacktop has taken responsibility and will be repairing the road as soon as temperatures reach at least 10 degrees consistently.

Mission’s tax rate for the year has been finalized. On Monday, Mission council unanimously approved a 3.9 per cent tax increase, amounting to approximately $53 for the averaged assessed home in Mission worth $393,000. In addition to the property tax hikes, Mission homeowners will also be paying more for library taxes ($2.89) and utilities ($89.32). The rate was determined at a district administration and finance meeting in February. Council went through the budget line by line and found additional savings. Also, the downtown security cost will be funded through gaming grants instead of taxation and a second assistant fire chief and additional police officer will not be hired.

OPINION

Published and printed by Black Press Ltd. at Mission at 33047 First Ave., V2V 1G2

What an election One down, two more to go, elections that is, for the people of B.C. Despite a slow start, Monday’s federal election morphed into an interesting competition and redrew the political map. And what a night it was. Stephen Harper’s Conservatives are back in power, this time with a majority government after promising that they are focused on economic progress and stability. Time will tell whether that happens and whether the government can rule from the centre, which is where Canadian politics is based, and not lapse into a right-wing Albertan agenda over which some in the party are drooling. The importance of conveying that message of stability wasn’t lost on the candidates. The win “will bring stability that Canada needs for economic recovery,” said Conservative Mark Warawa after his fourth win in Langley. “It shows that people were really tired of elections and wanted stability,” said Conservative Randy Kamp after his fourth win in Pitt Meadows-Maple Ridge-Mission. The surprise this time around was the ascendence of the NDP, likely because of NDP boss Jack Layton’s work ethic. Recovering from hip surgery, fighting cancer, Layton limped to work every day despite his condition. That dedication and his cane, struck a note with many voters who fight their own struggles daily, (though without a parliamentary salary and pension.) Locally, the NDP focused on the environment and Kamp presumably listened and will take the message to Ottawa, that B.C.’s environment is never something to be trifled with. – Maple Ridge News

Populist HST ‘fix’ coming P

remier Christy Clark’s shifting position on the harmonized sales tax finally appears to have come to rest. Her government is preparing to “fix the HST,” and the terms of that fix will be made available before people mark their ballots in a mail-in vote in June, Clark told reporters at the legislature last week. There has been a flurry of activity on the HST in recent days, and a few things are becoming clear. Clark and Finance Minister Kevin Falcon are preparing to do what I’ve been saying for months the government must do — make a solemn vow to cut the HST rate to 11 per cent as soon as they can. A couple of other “familyfirst” exemptions may also be gleaned from the town halls, online surveys and polling that are currently going on. A well-known polling firm was in the field last week, asking not only about people’s impressions of their new premier and opposition

leader, but also their view after that. towards a reduction in the Here’s one reason why HST rate.

Some were still upset about the HST, while others had misconceptions about what costs it does and doesn’t increase, he said. And lifting the tax from bicycles was a popular choice. I continue to get e-mails from people who are misinformed about the HST. One reader said he is paying it on heating oil. I suggested he check his bill again, and there it was, a rebate for the seven-per-cent provincial portion. The GST applied before and it continues to apply now. These telephone town halls have gone a long way towards putting the discussion on a factual basis. Voters may yet be persuaded to keep the HST.

YOUR VIEWS

Do Missionites want Kindness to dog appreciated expansion of prisons? Editor, The Record: The Conservative government plans on spending approximately $77.5 million to expand existing correctional facilities in the Fraser Valley. This is in keeping with Bill C-25, the Truth in Sentencing Act. This initiative and the accompanying injection of convicted criminals will undoubtedly impact our community in one way or another. Details from The Mission Record in September and December 2010 indicated that 96 additional cells will be added to Mission Institution, and 50 will be added to Ferndale. The statistics from the articles indicate that Mission Institution was designed to hold 228 inmates, and currently holds around 274 due to some double-bunking. Ferndale can house up to 166 inmates presently. Stockwell Day, the president of the Treasury Board, was at Mission Institution in September to announce the expansion. Mayor James Atebe spoke at the event thanking the government for the funding. He noted that it would help stimulate the local economy. Perhaps the mayor and the Correctional Service of Canada should ask

Editor, The Record: On Sunday, May 1, while coming down from the Hope area to visit family and friends we made a pit stop at the Superstore. When Elspeth went in to pick up last minute items, I took my dog, Apollo, out of his crate to stretch and piddle. Unfortunately, some careless person (shame on you) had smashed a beer bottle in the bushes where Apollo had relieved himself, resulting in a

Mission residents whether we want to expand those facilities. The lack of public consultation is rather disturbing from my point of view; if there was any dialogue, I’m not aware of it. Personally, I’m not thrilled about the prospect, and I don’t share the mayor’s enthusiasm. I can think of better ways to help stimulate the local economy. Both Ferndale and Mission Institutions are sitting on prime real estate with new subdivisions in close proximity. I was hoping these jails would eventually be phased out and the land put to better use. A well-designed residential and retail project on the former prison grounds could most certainly stimulate the local economy, thereby compensating, in large part, for the loss in tax revenue. Ask yourselves: Does Mission necessarily have to be a prison town, or is it possible that this part of the world could evolve into something else? Remember when New Westminster had the B.C. Pen? Look what’s there now. I’d take that any day. Giles Corey Mission

slashed paw. To all you wonderful Earth angels who took time out of your busy lives to tend Apollo, I was so very humbled and touched by the care and compassion you so freely gave to Apollo and myself. You kept me grounded. God bless each and every one of you, including Elspeth and extended family members Irene and Petr our vet, Susan, and the kind staff members of the Superstore.

Update on Apollo: He was quite relieved to have his sock finally removed Wednesday evening and I’m happy to report he is back to his usual jubilant, life-is-full-ofsunshine self. To the person who was so thoughtless with his/her beer bottle: Couldn’t you walk the extra 15 paces to the trash bin? It could have been a lot more tragic. Deborah and Apollo Bowers Hope

Rate increases are needed FWDABC removes 60K pounds of waste to maintain infrastructure Editor, The Record: BC Hydro rates are reportedly going up by about 27 per cent over the next three years. The latest upgrading project announced by BC Hydro is an upgrade to the Ruskin Dam and Powerhouse near Mission. It’s going to cost nearly a billion dollars. I completely understand why these upgrades are needed and I support BC Hydro in doing so. Postponing this investment in upgrades has only led to artificially low hydro rates, which have not reflected the true cost of the electricity we use. Trudy Gordon Burnaby

Editor, The Record: A great big thank you is due to the Four Wheel Drive association of BC who organized a clean up of the forests on the east side of Stave Lake on Earth Day. Fun in BC is one of those groups who, along with 110 volunteers, helped pull 60,000 lb. of steel and waste out of the bush. Way to go! Thanks to all who participated. C. Delainey Maple Ridge

Editor, The Record: As I look out the window on yet another cold, rainy day, I take solace in the fact that I am able to visit one of my newly discovered places here in Mission. Being a senior can present many challenges such as financial, physical or transportation issues. There is, however, a place that eases some of those challenges. One of my favourite places to visit within the park is the path that leads to the bridge. The bridge itself is made of stones gathered from the area and is a work of art. I find myself spending time there on my favourite bench, listening to the water, birds and most of all, I the children and dogs. Another path in the park leads to the bandstand where all summer long on Wednesday and Friday evenings there are many talented musicians playing for us, entertaining old and young alike.

Mission Record

The local seniors centre association has put out a survey to poll its members in advance of a meeting with the municipality later this month. We’re aiming for between 50 and 100 completed forms, said Frank Sleigh, Mission Seniors Centre Association (MSCA) president. There have been several surveys done over the years, but Sleigh noted it’s “important we update it periodically,” and that the District of Mission’s top planner, with whom the association is meeting May 25, wants the “most up to date information.”

As well, dozens of people cross the age boundary into senior territory each year and their perspective is valuable too, he continued. The four-page document asks respondents their vision for a seniors centre, potential funding structures, interim options, and other questions. Currently, the MSCA shares space with other community groups at the 10 Avenue and Taulbut Street facility, previously known as the Playstation. There is work being done to secure a building exclusively for seniors, said Sleigh, however, “council is just being careful with public money.” The president acknowledged some of its membership is more demanding and wants action now, but noted “it just takes time to get things going.” The activity centre’s

bills are covered by the municipality, and if seniors move into their own building, all the associated costs would follow. “We would find ourselves in a fundraising morass,” Sleigh posited. Surveys are available at the centre between 9:30 a.m. and 3:30 p.m., Monday to Friday. Some have also been dropped at Cedarbrooke Chateau

and Carrington House. They must be completed and returned to the centre by May 16. More members sought The MSCA stands at approximately 60 members, but more seniors are welcome to join the fold. The group regularly meets for activities and events each month, based out of the activity centre.

Report card only small part Smile with new conďŹ conďŹ denc dence ce of a schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s story: Dunham New Patients Welcome!

BY JASON ROESSLE Mission Record

The annual Fraser Institute (FI) report card on secondary schools was released Sunday and ranks the local educational sites between 5.5 and 4.6 out of 10 overall. The ever-controversial ranking system provides tables showing how well schools performed in academics for the previous five years. The instituteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s website says the document can be used by parents, teachers and administrators to help choose a school, or improve curriculum. Mission Public Schools Supt. Frank Dunham said this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s results are less relevant than before. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Given that students in Grade 12 are no longer required to write

provincial exams to gain admission to post-secondary institutions, fewer students are writing them,â&#x20AC;? he said. The average exam mark is one of seven figures used by the institute to formulate a schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s score. Also included are the percentage of exams failed, school versus exam mark difference, the English gender gap, math gender gap, graduation rate and delayed advancement rate. But this is only a small part of a schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s story, said Dunham. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Data reported by the Fraser Institute provides a very limited view of the work being done in schools and does not account for the rich experiences provided by the arts, athletics, apprenticeships and other programs,â&#x20AC;? he noted. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Despite its limitations,

we will be discussing the FI information with principals as we plan our improvement efforts for next year.â&#x20AC;? Local rankings: Hatzic Overall: 5.5/10 Average exam mark: 66.2% Percentage of exams failed: 8.7% Heritage Park Overall: 5.2/10 Average exam mark: 64.6% Percentage of exams failed: 11.4% Mission Overall: 4.6/10 Average exam mark: 64.2% Percentage of exams failed: 12.9%

Trio of apartment buildings proposed for First, Wardrop

KG PAI

A proposal to build three apartment buildings with commercial retail space just west of downtown will be the subject of a May 24 public hearing. The development, which will be built in three phases, is located at the corner of First Avenue and Wardrop Street. The project would include 163 residential units and about 842 sq. metres of commercial space. The developer, Perspective Investments Ltd., also plans to incorporate some live-work units, where a store’s owner can live above the business. Mission council didn’t have any ob-

jections proceeding with the next steps, but had some concerns about the type of businesses proposed. Both Couns. Paul Horn and Terry Gidda questioned whether or not second-hand stores would be a good fit, and Horn was also uncertain about allowing a dry cleaner in a residential building. “We’ve always wanted a mixeduse development,” said Mayor James Atebe, advising the rest of council to keep an open mind. “The options are there for comment and now the proponent can address them.” The public hearing will take place inside council chambers May 24 at 6:30 p.m.

Salmon advocates say federal fisheries staff in B.C. should be shielded from planned government cuts to avoid compromising potential recommendations of the inquiry underway into the collapse of Fraser River sockeye. The planned cuts announced last month aim to carve nearly $57 million out of the Department of Fisheries and Oceans budget over the next couple of years.

evidence on the state of the fishery for months and may well hand down findings next year that call for new initiatives – and increased spending – to improve salmon science, habitat protection and fishery monitoring. “It will make a mockery of the inquiry to make those cuts,” he said. “Don’t start swinging the axe until Justice Cohen comes down with his findings. It makes no sense.” Crey spoke out after the Fraser sockeye inquiry heard evidence showing habitat protection efforts on which sockeye depend are already in deep trouble because of past cutbacks and policy changes. One exhibit tabled was an internal note penned a couple of years ago by a Kamloop-based DFO habitat and enforcement manager who bluntly outlined the challenges. “We can’t keep up,” Jason Hwang said in the

been observing the hearings, said the testimony confirms what environmental groups have long believed – salmon protection is taking a back seat to the demands of industry and business. “Government appears to be further streamlining how easy it is to develop around salmon habitat,” Orr said. “We think it should be tougher.” He was referring to the DFO’s Environmental Process Modernization Plan (EPMP), which an internal department report tabled last week said was opposed by staff who felt it lowered the bar on habitat protection and primarily aimed to speed economic development. “It takes DFO more out of the picture and puts consultants in on okaying development,” Orr said. “We just think that’s the wrong way to go.” Georgia Strait Alliance executive director Christianne Wilhelmson added DFO largely refuses to prosecute habitat offenders, because of the time and cost involved. “If somebody dumps toxins into the environment, it’s not the time for a nice letter and a warning not to do it any more,” she said. The judicial inquiry was called after the collapse of the 2009 sockeye run, when just over a million fish returned, about a tenth the expected number. A huge return last year is thought by many experts to be an anomaly in a long-term decline.

note, in which he cited “huge” amounts of development in the Thompson, Okanagan, Nicola and Shuswap regions and long backlogs to examine proposals for possible habitat threats. “We are not able to pursue smaller occurrences that in the past we have pursued and prosecuted.” Regulatory streamlining, a poorly coordinated referral system and staff cuts have reduced DFO capacity to respond, his note said, resulting in an overall failure to achieve the department’s policy of no net loss of fish habitat where developers must compensate for any damage they do. “Our staff are very disillusioned that the department is not doing more to address this.” Hwang’s note also warned logging in the Interior had increased massively to salvage timber killed by mountain pine beetles. “We are totally disengaged from operational forestry,” he wrote. “We don’t have a handle on what is going on, and are not providing any meaningful guidance on what we would like to see for fish.” A report on habitat enforcement tabled with the inquiry showed the number of patrols, sites checked and violations observed plunged at least 75 per cent each after DFO staff cuts were imposed in 2005.

Parking fees dropped at Rolley Lake Parking fees have been lifted from 41 provincial parks around B.C., including Missionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Rolley Lake, and the provincial government will make up the $650,000 annual revenue in the environment ministry budget. Premier Christy Clark and Environment Minister Terry Lake made the announcement last week at Mt. Seymour Provincial Park in North Vancouver, to mark the 100th anniversary of the B.C. parks system. The parking fees have been

unpopular since they were introduced in the first term of the B.C. Liberal government. The environment ministry says they brought in about $1 million a year, of which $350,000 went to general revenue with the rest going to fund park upkeep. Lake also announced a $500,000 community legacy fund that will accept applications from communities to make improvements to their local parks. Up to $20,000 will be provided to selected proj-

ects for trail upgrades and other improvements. NDP environment critic Rob Fleming said the removal of parking fees is long overdue. Fleming called the legacy fund â&#x20AC;&#x153;a drop in the bucketâ&#x20AC;? compared to a $10 million reduction in the budget for operating parks. There are only 10 full-time park rangers left in the province, and volunteer organizations are getting burned out from doing trail work not funded by the province, he said.

Fire safety: Learn what to do if there is a fire in your apartment building Learn what to do if a fire happens in your building. This is the best way to protect yourself and those around you. This is general advice for tenants or owners of building that are three storeys high or more. If you live in a building with fewer than three storeys, talk to your superintendent or landlord and work out a personal fire safety plan. Do it now! Every fire is different. You must act quickly when you hear the alarm or discover a fire. You must always protect yourself from smoke. Remember, most people die from smoke, not fire. Here is what to do: • If there is a fire in your apartment Tell everyone in your apartment to leave, close all doors behind you, pull the fire alarm on your floor and yell fire, leave the building using the nearest stairway, call the fire department when you are safe and meet the firefighters at the front entrance and tell them the fire’s location. • Where you hear the fire alarm - to go or to stay … the decision is yours Most of the time, the best thing to do in a fire is leave the building as soon as possible. But in some cases you may not be able to leave and you may have to stay in your apartment. In either case you must act quickly. No matter what your

decision you must protect yourself from the smoke. • If you decide to leave the building Check the door to your apartment. If smoke is entering from around the door, do not open it. Protect yourself from smoke inside your apartment as described later. If there is no smoke, brace yourself and open the door a little. If you see smoke or feel heat, close the door quickly and protect yourself. If the corridor is clear, take your keys, lock your door, and go to the nearest stairway. • Do not use the elevator Open the nearest stairway door carefully. If there is no smoke, use the stairway to leave the building. If there is smoke, do not enter. Close the door. Go to another stairway and open the door carefully. If there is no smoke here, use this stairway to leave the building. If there is smoke, do not enter. If there are other stairways, try them. If there are not, return to your apartment and protect yourself from smoke. • When you are inside the stairway If you find smoke on your way down the stairs leave that stairway as soon as you can. Use another stairway if it is clear of smoke. If you can’t use any stairway, return to your apartment if you can, or

go into any corridor and bang on apartment doors until you find a place to take shelter. Never go to the roof. Smoke usually rises to the top of the stairway. Doors opening onto the roof are locked and you could be trapped. Remember, wherever you are, if there is smoke, crawl low under it. • If you remain in your apartment You must protect yourself from smoke. Stay in your apartment until you are rescued or until you are told to leave. This may take a long time. Do not try to leave your apartment a long time after the alarm has sounded. The longer you wait, the more risk there is that heavy smoke will have spread into stairways and corridors. Your chances of survival are less. Keep smoke from entering your apartment by using duct tape to seal cracks around the door and place wet towels at the bottom. Seal vents or air ducts the same way. If smoke enters your apartment telephone the fire department. If you don’t have a balcony, go to the most smoke-free room, close the door and seal it with tape and towels. Open the window for fresh air and show your rescuers where you are by hanging a sheet from the window or balcony. Keep low to the floor where the air is cleaner and listen for instructions from authorities.

Paul Gipps DEPUTY CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER Dated at Mission, BC this 9th day of May, 2011.

A four-day cycling expedition May 18-21 from Mission to Victoria will showcase the need for harmonious cultural diversity in the area, and advocate Ken Herar will lead his team for some 200 kilometres. The trip, dubbed Cycling for Diversity, celebrates the United Nations World Day for Cultural Diversity for Dialogue and Development (May 21), and shines the spotlight on the area’s diverse ethnic populations and the need for inclusive communities. Herar and his small group of riders are planning stops in Mission, Abbotsford, Langley, Surrey, New Westminster, Burnaby, Vancouver, Richmond and Victoria with various elementary and high school classroom visits, civic celebrations and meetings with civic leaders. During the trek, Herar will be riding a Devinci Oslo Hybrid road bike loaned from Wentings Cycle and Mountain Shop in Mission. Herar hopes to raise funds to purchase the bike and donate it to someone in need. On the first day of the trip, the Cycling for Diversity team visits Griner Park in Mission at 8:15 a.m. for a diversity tree planting. The tree is a ginko biloba, an evergreen native to China which has potential medicinal properties. The District of Mission has also declared May 16 to 21 as Cultural Diversity Week. From Griner Park the squad will make five stops at Mission schools and the Mission Friendship Centre where they will share in discussions about diversity and the cycling trip. Details of the rest of the trip can be obtained by calling Ken Herar at 604-615-2499. Interested riders can also contact him. The trip concludes in Victoria at the Legislature. An ongoing journal of the daily activities will be posted on the Cycling for Diversity Facebook page or @RickRake on Twitter. Donations for the bike Herar will be riding can be made to Envision Financial, account #4577128 (Mission branch). Ride supporters include Canada Safeway, Envision Financial, Mission Rotary Club, Fraser Valley Indo-Canadian Business Association, Peter Warkentin,

UPCOMING Online coupons – the new Chamber Events way to market your business What is the hottest new e-commerce model that has an increasing market share that millions of users choose to receive on their phone, in their inbox or as a RSS feed? Virtual couponing. As a concept, couponing is nothing new, the spin for the consumer is that they choose to receive them and if they are interested, purchase the product in advance of receipt. While couponing has always appealed to the bargain shopper, studies show that it doesn’t build consumer loyalty. It is just a tool that gets them in the door, where the work to build a relationship starts. Whether it is the opportunity to up-sell or wow the consumer with exceptional customer service, any business needs to understand that this type of advertising doesn’t build customer base. SpeciÄcally, experts agree couponing should not be used as the sole method of advertising or promotion, but as part of an integrated strategy of brand awareness.

Still the online coupon concept clearly is a way to drive trafÄc to your business, with participating businesses seeing signiÄcant interest in the market. Key points to remember: limit the number available, creating supply and demand; recognize in advance that most sites require at least a 50 per cent discount so make sure you have enough margin. There are hundreds of sites that reÅect localized areas like the Lower Mainland or target speciÄc market bases like golf or small business. Be sure to ask what the demographics are for your area. Be aware where they are located physically as well as virtually. Local products include BCDailyDeals.com and Swarmjam.com. Both sites offer additional services as part of the program that may include print ads in the market area and online ads in addition to the mass e-mails and website. The Black Press Media group’s BCDailyDeals.com launched in October of

2010 by Black Press Digital, the online division of Black Press Ltd. They are a local company located in the Lower Mainland, and have ofÄces and reps across the province. They support local businesses, and for them that doesn’t mean just Vancouver. Their product is also posted on BC Local Newsgroup webpages as well www. bcdailydeals.com.

To learn more about this advertising concept and Änd out if it would work for your business, attend the Chamber luncheon May 19 at Rockwell’s Chapel Room. Go to www. missionchamber.bc.ca to register. Remember to nominate local businesses who go above and beyond at www.missionchamber. bc.ca

Anatomy of a crash In the recent Westwood Motorcycle Racing Club’s race at Mission Raceway Park, two riders were involved in a serious crash that required one to be airlifted from the scene.

As depicted in this series of photos, the #23 motorcycle low-sided, leaving no room for #49 to go anywhere except over the fallen rider. The rider of the #23 machine was taken to hospital via air ambulance, and as of press time, a representative of WMRC was unable to provide an update on the injuries sustained to both individuals. The next race will be May 21 and 22. For more race photos visit www.thumphoto.com. PHOTOS THUMPHOTO PHOTOGRAPHY LTD.

SCCBC celebrates 60th birthday this weekend The Sports Car Club of B.C. (SCCBC) celebrates its 60th anniversary May 14-15, with two full days of competition at Mission Raceway Park (MRP). The weekend’s action features the second round of the Confederation of Autosport Car Clubs (CACC) 2011 championship, along with race two of the Westcoast Sportscar Championship (WSC). The SCCBC started hosting road racing in 1950 on temporary circuits at both Abbotsford and Bellingham airports before opening Westwood Racing Circuit in Coquitlam in 1959. SCCBC brought road racing to the streets of Vancouver in cooperation with the Molson Indy races from 1990 to 2004. Once Westwood closed in 1990 to make way for urban development, the club partnered with the B.C. Custom Car Association to build a road circuit in conjunction with the drag strip at MRP, where a full calendar of competition has been in place since 1991. This weekend the gates open at 9 a.m., and parking, grandstand seating and paddock access is all included in the ticket price, which is $5 on Saturday, $10 on Sunday, or $25 per car load. MRP’s road course is a nine-turn, 1.5 mile long track incorporating high speed and slow turns, along with a lengthy front straight. For more information visit www.sccbc.net.

Two drafted into WHL BY JASON ROESSLE Mission Record

A pair of Mission Minor Hockey players were drafted into the Western Hockey League last week. Michal Holub and Landyn Hickmott will be plying their trade with the Seattle Thunderbirds and the Saskatoon Blades, respectively, come next year. The two have played together for the past three

years, and Holub admitted to being surprised at getting drafted 49th overall in the third round. “I was thinking fifth or sixth [round],” he said. But he was certain he would be chosen as 16 teams had approached him before last Thursday’s draft. The right winger said he’s pleased to be going to Seattle, which finished fifth in their conference last season, as its a bit closer to home and

he likes the city. Holub, who turned 15 on draft day, has NHL aspirations and has been playing the national sport for the past six years. “I hit hard, I have decent hands, win the battles in the corners and have good energy,” said the six foot, 170pound player about his best attributes. Landyn Hickmott, the second of his family to take his game to the next level behind

older brother Jordan, was the Blades top pick, as management used their first two picks for player trades. “I’m pretty excited,” he said. “The team came first in the conference last year, and there are two players from the Canada World Junior team.” The strong two-way forward stands 5’11” at 165 pounds and said he was prepared to go to any team, as getting drafted to any WHL team was going to involve moving.

Bicycle road race on Saturday Road racing is making a return to Mission after a near 20-year absence. Cycling fans across the region are gearing up for the May 15 event, which will see competitive racers throw a leg over their bicycles for a 5.5 km course that has its start/finish at the Sports Park on Kenney Road. “This is a wickedly steep, wickedly fast course,” said Geoff Oram, one of the race directors, and member of Phoenix Velo Cycling Club, who noted each lap will see cyclists climbing 500 feet. The male Category 1 and 2 competitors will do 15 laps, while the women will complete 12. The course runs long Kenney to Israel Avenue, up Nelson Street to Tyler Street, then back south into a sharp righthander up Wren, back to the Sports Park. “It’s a 14 per cent grade up Wren,” said Bruce Wenting, co-race director and owner of Mission’s Wenting’s Cycle and Mountain Shop. “[The racers] will be flat out to stop and to straight up [Wren]. This breaks up the race quite severely. “It’ll be very exciting.” For more information on the races and the cycling club, visit phoenixvelo.com, or visit its Facebook page.

Rampage wins gold Mission Rampage took gold at last weekend’s tournament at Softball City. The Pepsi House Games competition saw the pee wee Mission team fight through a condensed round robin to meet the Langley Dougies in the final, which the Rampage took 15-2. The first game pitted the Cloverdale Chaos against the local girls. Jordyn Tubbs scored a two RBI homerun while Paige Kleindienst hit two runs with a triple. Kyla Borchert was game MVP in the 12-1 victory. The Rampage were down eight players in the game against Fleetwood Thunder, and lost 6-1, with Emily Shurey taking MVP honours. Going into the Sunday playoff round, Rampage were seeded in third, but got off to powerful start by mercying the SSWR Blitz 10-1. The girls faced Fleetwood again, but this time stifled the Thunder 7-5, propelling the Rampage into the gold medal round. Mission outscored the opposition 45-15 in five games.

Mission Folk Music Festival (MFMF) Society is debuting its unique tunable dance floor this week, and to celebrate the occasion, Matt Gordon, Boris Sichon, Jennie Bice, festival director Francis Xavier, and the Gallus Brothers will be performing in The Well Tempered Dance Floor on May 13 at St. Joseph’s church hall. Gordon, a musician and dancer, is also the master carver who built the dance box, commissioned by MFMF. It’s comprised of three resonator boxes held together in a frame with an industrial quality flooring on the surface. There are mechanisms underneath to tune the floor, giving every inch of it a different sound. “Once you know where the tones are, you can play a tune,” explained the carver. Three people can dance on the four-foot by eightfoot box comfortable, but eight people could fit on it in a circus act, said Gordon, who designed the surface to be an instrument as much as a box to jump on. “Several factors had to be considered,” he said. “How it felt to dance on, how it looked to the audience, and the sound.” Gordon also had to create something that would be portable, easy to set up, and kid-friendly. “It’s the only one like it as far as I know,” noted Gordon, who worked on the project for two months. “It’s nice to see something like this take shape,” said Xavier, who had been thinking about the project for 10 years. Xavier saw a prototype that lodged into the floor which Gordon built, and since then he thought it ought to be something the local festival should include. “The festival has always had an interest in dance, and we try to include it and feature it,” he explained. Gordon and Xavier connected again recently and Gordon played at MFMF for the first time last year.

Gordon will be returning to the festival this year. Although he plays the fiddle, harmonica and hambone, Gordon will be the resident dancer, and putting on workshops and performances. Gordon started out as a wood carver and has been dancing for 25 years. He finds a way to work his life around both passions. He has worked with the Fiddle Puppet dancers and was part of the cast of the London production of Riverdance, where he had a solo, and his woodworking skills h a v e brought him to Africa, Ireland and across North America. Friday’s night’s performance will take place at 8 p.m. Doors open at 7:30 p.m. Tickets can be purchased in advance for $18 each at Murdoch’s Book Shoppe on First Avenue or online at www.missionfolkmusicfestival.ca. Tickets will also be available for $20 each at the door. Tickets are $10 for kids age 17 and under. All proceeds from the event will support the 24th annual Mission Folk Music Festival in July. For more information e-mail mfmfs@look. ca or call 604-820-0088.

The month of May is a special month, the epitome of Spring, and a vivid reminder of the power of life. In the month of May, new life seemingly bursts forth from every conceivable crevice. Buds peak out on the boughs of almost every tree, while the fields literally explode with new growth. Eggs that have been carefully kept warm are now new hatchlings squawking for food, and their food wiggles out of the recently thawed ground after each gentle rain in the form of fresh worms. Nature has a way of providing for its denizens, and the month of May reminds us, as perhaps no other month can, that life is indomitable; it keeps coming back, no matter what. However, even though life is hardy and resilient, it should not blind us to the fact that it can also be fragile. A toxic chemical spill can kill thousands of God’s creatures, and it is obvious to most of us that human activity can sometimes have a deleterious effect on nature. That God gave us dominion over the animals should not be construed as the right to do whatever we please with nature. The concept of dominion is essentially modeled on the concept of lordship or kingship, and we would certainly not consider a king to be a good sovereign if he harmed his subjects for no other reason than his good pleasure. In the same way, we should be good stewards of the natural environment, and take care of it so that it will continue to take care of us. Let us make man in our image, after our likeness; and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth. R.S.V. Genesis 1:26

Janelle has been with Canadian Tire Mission a little over a year and started off in our Parts Dept. When she’s not at work you will Änd Janelle hiking and enjoying the great outdoors with her puppy “Tucker”. At the store you will Änd Janelle going quickly down aisles putting stock away or hanging out in our Nursery cleaning and freshening up all our annuals. Come in and see our Garden Dept. and you will see Janelle’s smiling face especially when the sun is shining.
