Heritage Park kids show support for teachers, decry education cuts BY NEIL CORBETT Mission Record

“Bring Back Books!” “Save Our Schools!” “Wasn’t Durieu Enough?” Those were some of the slogans on the signs high school student protestors held up as they demonstrated outside of Heritage Park Secondary on Thursday when classes ended for the day. They were protesting cutbacks in education, and rally organizers Clinton Large and Kylie Harmatuik said it was the prospect of losing eight Heritage teachers that most struck a chord with the students. Large explained that all teachers at the school without eight years of seniority were given layoff notices. Many will be hired back, but in the mean-

time they have no job security. “They are some of the best teachers in our school,” said Harmatuik. “They’re phenomenal.” The protestors received many honks of support from passing motorists, some adults grabbed a sign and joined the protest, and Large got the message across with a bullhorn, barking slogans like” “When I say teachers, you say stay!” They highlighted a serious issue in the Mission School District this year. Mike Trask, the bargaining chair for the Mission Teachers’ Union, said approximately 130 teachers across the district have been given layoff notices this year. Many, he concedes, will be hired back. However, in the past a teacher with even five years of seniority could reasonably expect their job would never be hit by the budget axe. “These students are right in saying there will

be a lot of dislocation or relocation around the district,” said Trask. “It’s a very, very uncertain time for teachers.” There are three factors impacting educators, Trask explained. First, Grade 7 classes will be shifted from elementary schools to the three secondary buildings for next year, as the district creates a middle school stream within the high school buildings. Second, vice-principals are being asked to spend more time in the classroom, displacing teachers. And third, enrollment is still in decline, by an estimated 100 students for next year. Many teachers will be shuffled to different positions in the district, and he estimated that a See PROTEST Page 2

“couple dozen” will lose their jobs. He said some who have been given layoff notices will find jobs in other communities, rather than live with the uncertainty in the Mission district. Trask said it is touching to hear student support for the Heritage teachers. “Teaching is all about the relationships you build,” he said. District superintendent Frank Dunham said there are staff changes every year, in every district in the province, as impacted by enrolment and government funding. He said having vice-principals in classrooms is being done as a budget saving. The restructuring involving Grade 7 students created more layoff notices than usual this year. “That creates anxiety until the process sorts itself out,” he said. “We’re very positive about our ability to retain staff.” Dunham estimated the total reduction in staff may be as small as 12 teachers. He denied that the student protest is

embarrassing for the district. “We want them to become critical thinkers, and future participants in our democratic society,” said Dunham. Large, Harmatuik and four other students attended the school district’s budget consultation meeting last Monday, and posed some tough questions to school district staff. They wanted to know why the district is still facing budget cutbacks – even after closing four elementary schools in the past three years to generate budget savings, including Durieu Elementary this year. Large said there was no satisfactory answer. “They’re really good at working around a question,” observed Harmatuik. Large said it is important for students to say “enough is enough.” Dunham wanted to reassure parents that the present disruption will be worthwhile. “It’s going to be positive in terms of creating better structures for student learning,” he said. “These are challenging times for all school districts, but everyone continues to do the best they can for kids.”

Key cutting equipment stolen from locksmith Four key cutting machines were stolen from a Mission Locksmith in the 32000 block of Lougheed Highway last week. The theft happened overnight on June 8, according to Mission RCMP, and items stolen included the machines used to cut keys and change locks, as well as about 240 black vehicle keys. The machines are portable, weighing between 30 and 40 pounds. Police say the suspects entered the business by breaking a glass door. The incident is still under investigation, and anyone with information about this crime is asked to call Mission RCMP at 604826-7161. If you want to remain anonymous, call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

Canada Post locks out workers Union says no notice given, ‘disappointed’ in employer BY CAROL AUN Mission Record

Canada Post locked out its unionized employees Tuesday after nearly two weeks of rotating strikes. This latest move comes just days after the corporation decreased mail delivery service from five days a week to three in urban areas. According to a Canada Post press release, mail volume has dropped by 50 per cent since the rotating strikes began, and the company’s losses are nearing $100 million. The employer says concerns about moving the mail while keeping employees and customers safe have also been raised. “We’re very disappointed in Canada Post,” said Canadian Union of Postal Workers local 740 president Cindy McDonnell. “They’ve essen-

tially shut down communication for everyone in Canada. A lot of people don’t have e-mail.”

The union wasn’t issued any warning at all, she continued, noting workers were told they had 10 minutes to

collect their belongings and get out of the building. It’s clear the corporation is hoping for a settlement

and wants the government to legislate employees back to work, added McDonnell. Canada Post says the two sides are far apart in contract talks after seven months, but McDonnell insists the union is willing to work with their employer to work it out. Main issues for the union include wages and changes to the sick leave plan. McDonnell said unionized workers want to be at work, and not inconvenience the public. In fact, the union would like to see an expansion of services, not a reduction. The union wants Canada Post to help combat mail theft by introducing door-to-door delivery service to homes which currently use community mail boxes. Mail theft is a problem in Mission, said McDonnell. On Tuesday, Canada Post workers in Mission set up an information rally outside the main office on First Avenue, receiving lots of support from passing motorists honking their horns and pedestrians walking by. Workers were out again Wednesday morning, after they were locked out.

Referendum stage set Federal gov’t approves B.C.’s twopoint drop in Harmonized Sales Tax BY TOM FLETCHER Black Press

IN BEAUTIFUL DOWNTOWN LANGLEY, BC CANADA

Pre-register at: The Langley Good Times Cruise-In Society is a registered Non Proﬁt Organization, supporting your local charities.

The federal government has changed regulations to allow a twopoint rate reduction for B.C.’s harmonized sales tax, and Canada Post has started delivering ballots to all regions outside the Lower Mainland. Delivery of three million voting packages for the HST referendum could be disrupted by postal workers’ rotating strikes across the country. HST ballots are scheduled to be sent Metro Vancouver and the Fraser Valley starting June 20. Voters who don’t receive a package in the mail by Friday, June 24 may call Elections BC

toll free at 1-800-6618683 to register or update their address. The deadline to request a voting package is midnight Friday, July 8. B.C. Finance Minister Kevin Falcon said a change to federal tax regulations commits the province to lower the HST rate if a majority of voters choose to stay with the HST. At B.C.’s request, the federal cabinet order lowers the provincial portion of HST

to six per cent on July 1, 2012 and to five per cent on July 1, 2014. The B.C. government has also offered transition payments to offset consumer costs for parents and seniors earning less than $40,000 a year. Each child under 18 or low-income senior would receive $175, but only if the HST survives the referendum. “We are confident British Columbians will agree that a 10 per cent

tax rate is better for B.C. families than the old 12 per cent PST and GST system and will vote ‘no’ in the referendum,” Falcon said. Businesses that have to charge customers an extra seven per cent tax on services and previously exempt items such as bicycles have struggled with the tax. Stephen Regan, president of the Tourism Association of B.C., said the industry can accept the HST once it is reduced to 11 per cent next year and 10 per cent in 2014. The HST adds seven per cent to event tickets and an array of labour services not previously covered by provincial sales tax. “Part of our challenge was that the impacts of the new harmonized tax were different for different parts of tourism both by business type and by location,” Regan said. “Hotel prices went down, the cost of restaurant meals went up, and businesses closer to Alberta, which does not have a provincial sales tax, were particularly sensitive to HST.”

Firefighters turn up the heat on work experience BY NEIL CORBETT Mission Record

Mission Fire Rescue and eight local high school students have set a new standard in work experience. When Mission Board of Education asked Mission Fire/Rescue if it would like to be involved in offering a work experience program for high school students, chief Ian Fitzpatrick and assistant chief Larry Watkinson decided it would have to be a lot more than simple job shadowing. They put together a curriculum that started with ropes and knots, graduated through the proper use of fire hoses and breathing apparatus, and ended with the kids attacking live fires. The students did 100 hours of training and onshift work. “We wanted to give these kids some tangible assets,” explained Watkinson. “They spent their entire spring break with us.” They needed turnout gear to fit the students (“They range from five-foot-nothing to six-foot-four,” said Watkinson) so they requested assistance from the provincial Justice Institute, which is responsible for firefighter and other emergency services training in B.C. Wayne Stevens, the director of fire and safety at the institute, said they were eager to help. “Larry did a fantastic job. He came with a very clear and fo-

cussed vision, and that’s what made it so easy for us to jump on board,” said Stevens. The work experience program culminated in a session at the Maple Ridge Fire Academy, a where professional firefighters train against live fires in controlled conditions. The students were in full gear, with breathing apparatus and water hoses, attacking simulated house fires and car fires. Stevens said they did an admirable job. “They were enthusiastic, and represented themselves, their schools and Mission Fire Rescue exceptionally well,” he said. “Sometimes we don’t give youth enough credit, but they were respectful and eager to learn.” Watkinson said the students touched on many of the aspects and skills of firefighting that people training for careers try to perfect during the three-month preemployment program offered by the Justice Institute. The eight students who took the program are almost all interested in careers in the field, and have been given a head start. “It (the program) gives the kids a very good understanding of what the job’s about,” said Watkinson. The students have been invited to continue their training, and can take part during regular practice nights with Mission’s full-time firefighters. One of the students, Catrina

Buerge, will be sponsored by Mission Fire/Rescue to attend a weeklong female firefighters training camp. Last Thursday, the fire group of firefighter cadets from Mission were honoured in a graduation ceremony at Firehall One. Watkinson wants the program to be even better for the next school year, but was pleased with the first effort. “I think we did pretty good,” he said. “We exposed them to what they can expect, and what firefighting is all about.” Stevens praised the “rigour and structure” of the Mission program, noting that students were training to recoqnized standards. “We’re already working on our side, to see how we can build on this,” Stevens said.

The sun’s glorious rays

t’s not hard to notice who’s been taking full advantage of the first tantalizing tastes of summer weather. They’re the people with the bright red glow on their arms, their legs, their nose, the back of their neck, the top of their head. Living in a northern climate where winter rain, snow and grey can dog us for half the year, we’ve developed a fine appreciation for warm sunny days. When it comes to the weather, it’s often feast or famine; after the famine of a dismal winter, we feast on the first rays of warm sunshine. But as with all good things like ice cream, you can have too much. Gorging on soft serve might give you an upset stomach, overindulging on sunshine can kill you. In 2009, more than 75,000 Canadians were diagnosed with non-melanoma skin cancer, and another 5,000 were diagnosed with melanoma. Skin cancer is the most common cancer diagnosed in Canadians. Our culture has come to value a healthy glow; it suggests a healthy lifestyle, especially among younger Canadians. But for those born in the 1990s, there’s a one-insix lifetime risk they’ll get skin cancer, while those born in the 1960s have only a one in 20 lifetime risk. Awareness campaigns are having some effect. A number of Lower Mainland high schools are promoting tanfree proms to discourage grads from hitting the beach or tanning salon prior to their big night. When the sun comes out and the temperature rises after weeks of dreary rain and cold, it’s often easy to forget just how strong those rays can be. Working too long in the garden, taking a hike, riding the bike or spending a lazy afternoon on the patio without protection from the sun can have consequences years down the road. So when the weatherman calls for glorious sunshine, remember to wear a hat, cover those arms with sleeves or slather on some sunscreen of SPF 30 or higher. A little prevention can mean a longer life. – Black Press

In each case, they violate zoning rules and hog services for personal benefit. And if you think they pay income or other taxes on their home businesses, I have a 1973 Pinto you might want to test-drive. The subject of used cars came up last week when NDP leader Adrian Dix belatedly launched his own anti-HST tour. Apparently he’s having second thoughts about letting Bill Vander Zalm set NDP tax policy based on a world government conspiracy theory. Dix’s first media event was staged in a Burnaby kitchen. The homeowner dismissed the $350 HST rebate he has been offered to offset costs such as summer camp for his two kids, saying that will be gone several times over if he buys a used car. This clearly implies that HST has been extended to used cars. This is the sort of claim that drives much of the rage against it, as people simply scan their bills for those hated three letters. There are signs that people understand their taxes better, however. An Angus Reid poll last week found that 58 per cent of British Columbians now prefer to pay taxes on their consumption rather than their income.

YOUR VIEWS Tourism group supports 10% HST vincial government has promised to reduce the HST by two per cent and is actively championing improvements to a federal visitor rebate program that will encourage foreign buyers to choose Canada and B.C. We now share the growing concern of the broader business community over the uncertainty and considerable financial difficulties that a move back to the old PSTGST system would create for B.C. Now is not the time to take a backwards course. A 10 per cent HST is the way forward for tourism in B.C.

Businesses closer to Alberta which does not have a provincial sales tax were particularly sensitive to HST. Like other concerned sectors of the B.C. economy, we noted decreased consumer confidence around the time HST was implemented in B.C. and Ontario in July 2010. This occurred in the early recovery period after a recession. We have been relieved to see that domestic consumer confidence has begun to trend in a positive direction.

The Ernest Jacobsen Rose Garden is blooming again at Fraser River Heritage Park and its caretakers are hoping a fundraiser later this month will keep it that way. The garden was established after Ernieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s death in 2001 when his family donated 300 rose bushes from his personal collection. The garden is located on the southern side of the parkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s administrative building. Ernie loved roses, said his wife, Rhona, who learned to help her husband look after all 700 bushes in their garden on Lawrence Lane. Ernie was a member of numerous rose societies around the world and won many awards for his efforts. Their home was even a tourist attraction, Rhona recalled. Ernieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s favourite was the alpine sunset â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a large, fragrant, apricotcoloured bloom. Six of these were donated to the park, but Rhona isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sure if there are any still standing. Rhona, who doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t drive, said she doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t

visit the roses as often as she would like to and about a year ago the garden fell apart. It wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t well maintained and many bushes dwindled away. It broke her heart to see Ernieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s precious roses struggling and eventually Sandra Zdunich came on board to help with the rose garden and other beds around the park. Zdunich worked in gardens for the past 20 years and also loved roses. She

Zdunich still works in the garden every morning and stays for as long as she needs to. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s peaceful there,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Every rose is like a piece of Rhonaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s husband.â&#x20AC;?

While the rose bushes are improving, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still a lot to do and donations are always needed. Zdunich would like to see new landscaping tiles, soil, replacement bushes, and a new pathway in the garden. The Ernest Jacobsen Rose Garden tea fundraiser will take place June 26 from 2 to 4 p.m. at Fraser River Heritage Park. There will be door prizes and draw prizes. Proceeds from the event will go toward the maintenance of the garden. Tickets are $10 each. For more information call 604-826-0277.

About 70 people gathered at the Mission Seniors Centre on Thursday, June 9 to celebrate its first anniversary. The building was filled with lively chatter as friends visited with one another, waiting for the official ceremonies to begin. Joyce and Nettie, who didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t provide their last names, are at the centre several times a week for activities, such as cards. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I try to come to as many things as I can,â&#x20AC;? said Joyce. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re fortunate to have this.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nice to see everyone here,â&#x20AC;?

Why Go To Vancouver

BY CAROL AUN Mission Record

This year’s Rockin’ River Music Festival will return the Mission Raceway Park in August. Organizers of the event wanted to move the event to the north side of the Lougheed Highway, just west of Nelson Street, but the proposal was rejected by the Agricultural Land Commission, which determines uses for farmland. The festival will take place Friday, Aug. 12 and Saturday, Aug. 13 and will run from 3 p.m. to 1 a.m., which is an hour later than in previous years. Organizers say the one-hour extension is needed because some of the headline acts will not take the stage until the sun has set. Lights and big screen are essential to their show, said Kenny Hess in a letter to the district.

There have been no complaints in the two years since the event has come to Mission, and council unanimously granted the request. Main acts at the festival this year will include country rock stars Travis Tritt, Lonestar, Sawyer Brown and Julian Austin. “The lineup for this year’s festival is really impressive,” said Hess. “These acts are some of country’s best stage performers and they will not disappoint this summer.” Reserved and general admission tickets, as well as reserved camping, for Rockin’ River Music Festival can now be purchased online at rockinriver.com.

Since the 1930s, the Ruskin Dam and Generating Station has provided a clean and reliable supply of electricity to homes and businesses in BC. After more than 80 years of service, the facility is in need of an upgrade. BC Hydro is planning a major investment to the Ruskin facility to improve seismic performance and replace the original powerhouse equipment which is in poor condition and becoming increasingly unreliable.

More information on the project and a copy of the draft Environmental Management Plan is available on line at bchydro.com/ruskin.

For 50 years, BC Hydro has been providing clean, reliable electricity to our customers. Today we are planning for the next 50 years by investing in new projects, upgrading existing facilities and working with our customers to conserve energy through Power Smart.

Province to expand anti-bullying program Premier Christy Clark announced the expansion in B.C. of an anti-bullying program at Burnaby’s Morley elementary school Monday.

The internationallyrecognized Roots of Empathy program, will be expanded into about 360 kindergarten classrooms across the province this

year. The Seeds of Empathy program, which focuses on teaching children aged four and five, will also expand into 22 preschools or child cares

in 2011-2012. The programs will be co-funded by the Ministry of Children and Family Development and the Ministry of Education

I promised to provide programs to students that teach them core values like respect, kindness and empathy,” said Clark in a press release. “The Roots of Empathy program delivers on that promise and helps teach young children how to act towards each other. Bullying has no place in our schools and parents deserve to know their children are safe in school.” The Roots of Empathy program actively promotes respectful and kind behaviour and addresses aggressive behaviours such as bullying, harassment, violence and intimidation. It brings a family with a

young infant and volunteers into an elementary classroom 27 times over the school year. Students are coached to observe the baby’s development, celebrate milestones, interact with the baby and learn about an infant’s needs and unique temperament. “Research tells us that the thousands of B.C. children who receive the program will bully less, be more cooperative, caring and kind,” said Mary Gordon, who founded Roots of Empathy in 1996. “This investment in children’s social and emotional development is an investment in a more caring, peaceful and civil society.

Rents, vacancy rates edge up BY JEFF NAGEL Black Press

Rents edged up 2.6 per cent in Metro Vancouver over the past year, according to the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corp. The average rent for a two-bedroom apartment climbed to $1,181 in April, up from $1,150 a year before. Further east in the Fraser Valley, Abbotsford-area rents climbed 1.9 per cent from $783 to $797. The provincial average rose 2.1 per cent from $983 to $1,015, CMHC reported. While prices are up slightly, the latest rental market survey found it’s somewhat easier to find a unit. Vacancy rates in Metro Vancouver increased from 2.2 to 2.8 per cent and from 3.1 to 3.7 per cent province wide. There was no change in 6.6 per cent vacancy rate in Abbotsford. CMHC economist Carol Frketich said the rental unit supply rose as tenants in purpose-built apartment buildings bought their own homes or moved into secondary suites or investor-owned condos not covered under the survey.

Cedar construction update The District of Mission would like to thank the public for its patience during the completion of the Cedar Street upgrade project. This project started last year with funding help from the federal government’s Canada’s Economic Action Plan – Infrastructure Stimulus Plan, which provided money for municipal construction-ready infrastructure projects. This meant that the District of Mission could upgrade Cedar Street between Cherry Avenue and Tunbridge Avenue and receive one-third of the funding from the federal government, one-third from the provincial government and one-third of the funding from our own budget. The total funding for the project was $3.8 million. The Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure announced it would be extending the deadline for completion of projects, as there were still many around the province that had experienced delays. The deadline was been extended until Oct. 31, 2011. Unfortunately, the completion of our project has been delayed because of two issues which were beyond the district’s control. The greatest delay has been trying to organize utility companies (Telus, Shaw, and BC Hydro’s distribution and transmission departments) to come and remove their poles from inside the roadway. The last Telus pole was finally removed from the roadway last week.

The final layer of pavement was not planned to be put down until the final pole had been moved so that holes were not left in the final product. The second setback has been the cold winter and a rainy spring. In order to have a quality paving job, the weather needs to be over 10 degrees during the day and in the evening. Since the weather is improving, the final layer of pavement will be laid down soon. This project has also come in under budget, and with permission of the federal and provincial governments additional projects have now been added to the scope of the work. A detention pond is being built to its maximum permanent capacity between Egglestone and Tunbridge, and a design has been completed for the upgrade of the Tunbridge/Cedar intersection. The tender for the construction of this intersection upgrade is proposed to go out shortly. If the tenders come in within budget, then this work can commence. Cedar, between Cherry and Tunbridge Avenues, is expected to have its final layer of asphalt put down within two weeks. We also expect all the work to be completed by mid July. This includes the road markings being painted and the signal light at the intersection of Cedar Street and Egglestone Avenue being energized. Again, the District of Mission thanks you for your patience.

Bicycle route signage

PAY IT

Recently the District of Mission implemented a bicycle route plan which included signage and road stencils on a number of roads around the municipality. The project evolved when Mission Municipal Council adopted a Parks, Trails and Bicycle Master Plan in 2009. The purpose of the plan was to provide direction to the district for the management of the trails, parks, and outdoor recreation systems over the next 15 years. This plan was developed by a consultant with significant public consultation and input. The bicycle route portion of the plan was completed by a sub-consultant with expertise in this specific field and in consultation with local cyclists, including members of the Bicycle Planning Advisory Committee a plan was developed for the municipality. The bicycle route plan identified the need for a link between Mission’s core and Hatzic, through Fraser River Heritage Park and the adjacent Crown land. This was the basis for the district’s successful application for a LocalMotion grant, along with two other smaller grants. These grants were used to build the new trail system in and around Fraser River Heritage Park. The budget for the project was $1.2 million, with over $900,000 coming from the three noted grant programs. The district share of approximately $300,000 came from gaming revenue. The trail project was completed under budget. The district contacted the province to determine if they wanted the surplus funding returned. The province indicated that they would prefer to see the funds used in our community, but that any additional work would still need to meet the objectives of promoting active transportation (cycling) and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Thus, all parties agreed that the natural extension of the project to establish the full

bicycle route was the best option. The goals of the bicycle route plan are to increase bicycle trips and to improve safety for cyclists in Mission. The signage and road stencils were specified in our tender document as laid out in the bicycle route plan by the consultant. They are meant to alert motorists to the possibility of cyclists on the specified roads, and to attract cyclists to those roads in the hope that they are safer to travel. It was council’s goal to see the plan become reality through the use of these grants funds, and that cyclists will feel much safer when travelling through and around Mission.

Mission TrainBus service changes

On June 20 there will be a reduction in TrainBus service in Mission. The TrainBus has been in operation since 1999 to supplement the West Coast Express rail service by following the West Coast Express (WCE) route and stopping at all the stations along the line during weekdays. In 2008, the TrainBus began offering three round trips from Mission on Saturdays and two on Sundays. The new schedule has cancelled three of the seven weekday TrainBus trips.

These are the westbound 9:27 a.m. TrainBus #1 departing from Mission and the eastbound TrainBus #1 and #4 departing from Vancouver. Mission will continue to receive service from the 10:27 a.m. westbound TrainBus #2, as well as eastbound service from TrainBuses #2, #3 and #5 which leave Vancouver at 1:25 p.m., 7 p.m. and 8 p.m. respectively during weekdays. This schedule will continue to give regular WCE customers the option to

head downtown later in the morning and return home earlier or stay later after the train service is finished. The Saturday, Sunday and holiday TrainBuses have also been cancelled. Mission and Translink decided to cancel the weekend service based on low fare revenue from low ridership and the need to focus available funding on TrainBus’ main role of supplementing WCE weekday commuter services. These changes will not affect the West Coast Express commuter rail service.

PSIT review on June 27 On Jan. 24, District of Mission council voted to defer the Public Safety Inspection program in Mission as a result of concerns raised by the public. During this time, council directed staff to undertake a comprehensive review of the program. The program remains deferred indefinitely. The District of Mission has completed the review of approximately 70 open Public Safety Inspection property files. A general summary of the open file review will be presented to council on June 27, 2011 beginning at 7:30 p.m. in the council chambers at Municipal Hall.

Some even use a garage door opener from the car to get inside. Chilliwack UFV instructor Ken Pugh has been pressing ICBC to act.

BY JEFF NAGEL Black Press

ICBC officials say theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll look at loosening the requirement to keep auto insurance papers in the vehicle â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a rule some owners say leaves them vulnerable to home burglars.

He says crooks going for the car-home breakin combo target vehicles likely to be parked for hours at places like movie theatres, trail heads and churches. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sometimes they even slash the tires so the owners canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get home quickly,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got it down to an art.â&#x20AC;? That threat could be eliminated, Pugh said, if ICBC let owners keep their original car insur-

ance papers at home and use a photocopy in the vehicle with the address blacked out if theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re stopped by police. So far, ICBC officials maintain originals must stay with the vehicle and it would take provincial legislation to change that rule. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re taking a look at what can be done to address these concerns,â&#x20AC;? ICBC spokesperson Kathy Taylor said.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sometimes a quick fix to a process is possible, but we want to exercise due diligence to make sure we wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be creating any larger issues.â&#x20AC;? Meanwhile, ICBC recommends storing the originals in a hidden panel or secure storage box in the vehicle or else taking them with you when youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re away from your car. But carrying a sheaf of insurance documents is

impractical, said Pugh. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d need a manpurse,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A walletâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not big enough.â&#x20AC;? And he doubts any hiding place inside a vehicle would be thief-proof. He argues B.C. could simply follow the lead of Saskatchewan, which provides a wallet-sized card for proof of insurance and allows drivers to keep the original documents at home. â&#x20AC;&#x153;ICBC has been very

slow to react to this,â&#x20AC;? he said, adding he has neighbours who are afraid to leave their homes after a flurry of break-ins. The auto insurer doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem to care if criminals target homes, he said, but added the provincial government should if itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s serious about public safety and protecting families. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is an outdated procedure that is no longer in the interests of public safety.â&#x20AC;? Pugh wants Public Safety Minister Shirley Bond to intervene and is also asking B.C.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Information and Privacy Commissioner to investigate and potentially order ICBC to change its policy. The RCMP publicly cautioned motorists this spring against leaving identifying documents such as insurance in vehicles, most recently after a flurry of thefts from the homes of church-goers in Abbotsford. RCMP E Division spokesperson Sgt. Rob Vermeulen said itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s likely rare that burglars target homes using insurance paperwork, but added itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wise to take precautions. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our advice would not be to leave the documents in the vehicle,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Carry them with you.â&#x20AC;? A thief stopped by police in a stolen vehicle would also be unable to produce documents and pass himself off as a legitimate operator, he added.

Local dance academy expands Fraser Valley Academy of Dance students take a leap to the top BY CAROL AUN

Roger Potter hosts Acoustic

The Fraser Valley Academy of Dance is expanding its studio on First Avenue after being here just three years. Owners John and Carolyne Carney knew they wanted more space from the moment the school doors opened. The question had been where and when. Now with more than 300 students and the space next door available, the time has come. The pair admitted they had reservations about the downtown location when they first moved to Mission because they worried about the children’s safety at night, but the situation has improved with the street ambassador program and now they’re happy to be staying. “It’s a character building and it’s hard to leave,” said Carolyn, noting classes currently run from 3:30 p.m. to 9 p.m., and hopefully with an extra classroom, everyone can finish earlier. The new space is almost as big as studio A, and more spacious because it doesn’t have a pole in the centre. A spring floor will have to be built, bars installed and a sound system put in, said John, who expects the third studio will be ready for classes in September. A mix of classes will be using room, such as jazz, hip hop, and a range of ballet. Other parts of the building will be renovated too in the process. The front office will be moved and the entrance and waiting will be opened and

Open Mic at the Historic Dewdney Pub, 8 p.m. The pub is located off Highway 7, east of Mission. Watch for the signs. For more info call 604-826-4762.

• JUNE 24 TO JUNE 25: Fraser Valley Academy of Dance annual school performances at the Clarke Theatre. The senior show takes place on June 24 and the junior show takes place on June 25. For tickets and info call the school at 604-826-0097.

expanded. Televisions will be installed, giving waiting parents an opportunity to watch their children in class. “It can be crowded here when you have two groups coming and going,” said Carolyn. The studio expansion is coming just in time as the school adds another class to its lineup. The Pre-Professional Dance Academy begins in Sep-

tember with students coming from Port Coquitlam, Langley, Abbotsford and Maple Ridge. “It’s an intensive program concentrating on classical ballet for serious students contemplating a career in dance,” stated John. Students audition for the program then arrange with their school to finish their academics in the morning and train at FVAD in the afternoon. There will also be specialized classes for boys. “This gives them the opportunity to train for 20 hours a week,” Carolyne noted. “The more hours you have, the better you get,” John said, adding the dancers will also learn about music appreciation, dance history, and health and nutrition. FVAD has already produced some impressive dancers, such as Maria Weiss, who has been accepted into the SFU dance degree program, and Mikayla Petty, who has been accepted into the world-famous Rambert School of Ballet and Contemporary Dance in London, England. John trained and taught at Rambert School and says having one of his students attending is particularly meaningful for him. Petty, 17, will be enrolled in a three-year fulltime program. The school is small, accepting less than 40 students each year, but one of the world’s best. About 90 percent of Rambert graduates go on to dance professionally around the world. All students at FVAD are now preparing for the annual school performances, taking place June 24-25. The senior school show will be held Friday, June 24 from 7:30 to 9:30 and the junior school show will be on Saturday, June 25 from 2 to 4 p.m. Both performances will happen at the Clarke Theatre. Tickets to the show are now on sale for $16/ adult, and $13/senior or student. For more information about FVAD, call 604826-0097 or e-mail info@fvad.ca.

What’s Happening in Mission

POSITIVE ILLUSIONS

A realistic conception of oneself is sometimes considered a hallmark of the mentally healthy person. A person with low self-esteem is someone who devalues themself, or who has a deflated sense of self. Likewise, it is possible to have an inflated sense of self, and we all know how insufferable it is to be around those who think they are better, wiser, funnier, or more likable than they really are. Some people’s view of themselves is thus inflated, while others have a deflated sense of self. Most of us have areas of our lives where we are seemingly oblivious to our faults. Current psychological research suggests that there may be some benefit to positive illusions, both about ourselves and others. These positive illusions become selffulfilling prophecies. That is, we become the people we think we are, and others live up to or down to, the expectations we have of them. So, we should think positively about ourselves and others, and strive to live up to our own expectations. We are bound to give thanks to God always for you, brethren, as is fitting, because your faith is growing SonRock Kids Camp abundantly, and the Vacation Bible love of every one of School you for one another is St. Paul’s increasing.

Three local residents star in The Matchmaker Three Mission residents are being featured in Gallery 7 Theatre and Performing Arts production of The Matchmaker, which is running until June 25 at MEI theatre in Abbotsford. Kim Larson stars as Minnie Faye, Kenzie Hall plays Barnaby Tucker, and Glen Kask is Joe Scanlon in this Thornton Wilder play. “The Matchmaker is a farce with real heart. The characters, and the adventures they embark on, are great fun,” explains Gallery 7 Theatre’s artistic director, Ken Hildebrandt. “I think this production will be an outstanding way to celebrate the arrival of summer.” Horace Vandergelder, a shrewd and wealthy merchant, has decided to get married. Securing the services of a matchmaker, Vandergelder entrusts his Yonkers shop to the care of his clerks while he heads to New York City in search of love. Tired of their mundane lives and longing for romance, the clerks close up shop and embark on their own adventure to the city. Things really get complicated when they nearly run head-long in to their blustery boss in the city streets. A series of hilarious episodes of hide-and-seek ensue in this farcical adventure that inspired the smashhit Broadway musical, Hello Dolly! The cast of The Matchmaker is made up of talented performers from across the Lower Mainland and Fraser Valley. Actor, director, film coach and Maple Ridge resident, Annette Reilly, returns to direct The Matchmaker, having directed last season’s runaway hit production, Pride and Prejudice. The Matchmaker runs June 16 - 18 and 23 - 25 at 7:30 p.m. with additional discounted matinees on June 11 and June 18 at 2 p.m. at the MEI Auditorium, 4081 Clearbrook Road, Abbotsford. Tickets for evening performances are $16/adults; $14/senior (65+) and students; $13 for groups of 10 or more; and $9 for children 12 and under. Tickets for matinee performances are $12 for general admission and $9 for children 12 and under. Tickets are available by calling 604-852-3701 or 1-800-665-8828.

Children’s festival At the Children’s Festival (clockwise from above), on Sunday at Fraser River Heritage Park, Ashleigh Broder waves after conquering the climbing wall; The Jester Mike Battie performs on stilts; The Smylie family, Bob and Amy with their children Douglas and Ariel, represented the Society for Creative Anachronism, and Angela Brown, the Ta Daa Lady, leads a “Storytime” parade. BOB FRIESEN PHOTOS

Twilight concerts continue in park The Envision Twilight Concert Series presents the Abbotsford Concert Band on Friday, June 17 at Fraser River Heritage Park. The Abbotsford Concert Band has been a part of the music community in the Fraser Valley for 50 years, playing a wide assortment of music from marches to dance music to symphonic festival pieces. They have played at festivals, concerts, parades, and just about any event where music can lift the heart. The band currently has about 40 members with ages ranging from teens to 80s. The band started in 1960 with eight young musicians and grew to over 60 members in the first year. In 1965, an adult band that had been playing as a small group amalgamated with the junior band, forming the nucleus of the Abbotsford Concert Band. They performed regular summer concerts at Jubilee Park and also traveled as musical ambassadors, playing in parades and concerts across B.C., Alberta, Washington and further, including Expo 86 and Expo 74. Currently, the band performs in over a dozen engagements each year, from community events and fundraisers to festivals and concerts. The Art in the Park program features glass blown beadwork and jewelry from Ania Kyte; Gina Esche’s natural way to body wellness;

and beaded jewelry from Betty Sandmark. The Envision Twilight Concert Series welcomes Heritage Park Secondary School Jazz Band back to Fraser River Heritage Park on Wednesday, June 22 from 7 to 8 p.m. Heritage Park’s music program has a history of success at provincial, national and even international events.

HPSS Jazz Band has represented the school very well at various concerts and events throughout the year, and will be playing a wide variety of big band arrangements, ranging from 1950s era swing to current alternative rock. Their show will make for a high energy, fun night at the park. The Art in the Park program features Betty Sandmark’s beaded jewelry and a craft workshop with

Salt Lane Studio. Bring a lawn chair or blanket and come to the park. The Log Cabin Café and the Blackberry Kitchen are open. Admission is free but donations are encouraged. Your support along with the generous contributions of sponsors will ensure that theseries continues. For more information call the Fraser River Heritage Park at 604826-0277.

Early bird tickets available for MFMF The 24th annual Mission Folk Music Festival will feature great music from Northern Europe and the North Atlantic, with artists coming from Ireland, Scotland, Norway, Denmark and Belgium. The festival will also feature outstanding music from Kyrgyzstan, Mongolia and Spain, as well as from across Canada and the U.S. With a focus on traditional and new-traditional music, there’s Celtic music, great singer-songwriters, Sami music, a little bit of Louisiana lilt, hot banjos and straight-ahead world music. The full lineup of performers is available at www.missionfolkmusicfestival.ca. This year, the festival presents The Church of the Blues in partnership with the Historic Dewdney Pub, with 25 blues players from the local Mission-Abbotsford scene and from across the Lower Mainland, plus visits from the great Jim Bynres, the Crow Quill Night Owls and others. Early bird tickets to the festival are available until June 30 at Shoppers Drug Mart in Mission, Tom Lee Music in Abbotsford, or by calling 604-826-5937 or 1-866-494-FOLK. Three-day passes are $85/adult, $55/senior and $50/youth (age 1319). Weekend passes for children ages five to 12 are $10 each. Camping is available for $30 for the weekend.

Congratulations Class of ’11! Did you know that you can get the best public university education in the province right here in the Fraser Valley? In the Globe and Mail Canadian University Report 2011, UFV earned the most ‘A range’ grades for any public post-secondary institution of any size in BC. This is the third year in a row UFV has received excellent grades in this report. Pick up some prerequisite courses, do some upgrading, get started on a degree or diploma program, or begin a specialty program this fall. Unsure of your direction? Call and connect with an educational advisor to discuss your options, or email advising@ufv.ca. Concerned about the financing? UFV helps disburse about $12 million each year in student financial assistance. Not sure you have the time? In many cases, you can study full-time, part-time, or online... whatever fits your schedule.

There’s still time to apply today and start in September 2011.

‘Savour each word’ in summer reading club The Summer Reading Club at the Mission Community Library continues to be a family affair. Preschoolers, kids, teens and adults alike are invited to join in this year’s fun beginning in June. Summer Reading Club reaches over 85,000 children and families in the province every summer and is sponsored by the British Columbia Library Association, with funding assistance from the Public Library Services Branch, Ministry of Education and your local public library. This year’s theme, “Savour Each Word!” encourages kids and teens to gobble up some good reads during the summer months. Participants who join this free summer program will receive a colourful reading record and bookmark to get started on a summer filled with delicious reading experiences. Kids may collect stickers as they reach their reading goals, and reading club members may receive a coveted Summer Reading Club medal in recognition of their achievements. Preschoolers will be presented with a ribbon for their efforts as members of the Read–To-Me portion of the club. Throughout July and August, families can take part in the many Summer Reading Club programs and contests being offered at the library. This province-wide program encourages children to read over the summer holidays in order to maintain and develop their reading skills. Studies show that voluntary reading and read-aloud experiences are the top factors in establishing strong, successful reading habits. Teens who join the Teen Reading Club have the opportunity to win one of six prizes – netbook computers, digital camcorders and eBook readers. Participants may also choose to take part in the online Teen Reading Club, www. teensrc.ca, an interactive website that invites club members to write book reviews, engage in group discussions and win prizes.

And not to be left out, adults are once again being offered their own reading club. This year, adults can “Read for Luck” during the Adult Summer Reading Club and receive a simple reading record to keep track of their summer reading experiences, the opportunity to win some prizes, and best of all, fortune cookies stuffed with literacy quotations. For more information drop by or call the Mission Library at 604826-6610.

When Brent Hayden was asked which swim club he would like to shoot a commercial with, and bestow with boxes of free swimming merchandise for the kids, it was a no-brainer. So, on Thursday afternoon, as the Mission Marlins were finishing up practice, they got a visit from the club’s favourite son. They all knew him on sight, and excited screams echoed through the Leisure Centre when Hayden walked onto the pool deck. Even a four-year-old, who has only been a Marlin for about a month, pointed to the mural of Hayden painted on the wall, and asked if that was him. The kids held a mini-meet, racing against the Olympian who is their icon. And the 2007 world champion freestyler mingled with them and talked to them like he was still a Mission Marlin. Hayden was with the club from 1989 to 1999. “He’s a big role model to the club – really inspirational,” said 16-year-old Kiefer Ziefflie, who has been a Marlin for 12 years. Swimoutlet is an online retailer that uses this publicity model in the U.S., bringing high-profile Team USA swimmers together with youngsters. In the next week or two they will begin shipping directly to customers in Canada. They approached the high-profile Hayden about participating in an event in Canada. He lives in Vancouver and trains at UBC, but his first thought was of his old club. “I was: ‘You’ve got to have the Mission Marlins involved in this,” he smiled, after handing out bags with goggles, towels ad other Swimoutlet merchandise to the kids, signed autographs, and spent time with the kids. “It was straight-up fun,” he said. He also talks to the kids about reaching their goals. “Each and every one of them has the potential to do something great.” It was a break in the routine for Hayden, who is getting ready for his next meet. That will be the Santa Clara International Invitational, where he will face one of the most successful swimmers of all time in American Michael Phelps. Hayden beat him in 2009, and says “I’m hoping to do that again.” He said he is healthy, feeling good, and working toward the World Aquatics Championships on July 16-31 in Shanghai, China, and ultimately another Olympics appearance in the 2012 Games in London. The promotional video that was shot in Mission will be seen on the swimoutlet.com website in four to six weeks.

Roadrunners football wins pair against Windsor The Mission Secondary football program had a successful spring camp by taking both scrimmage games from Windsor Secondary. After their most successful fall to date in 2010, in which they won the double A junior varsity provincial championship, and the varsity team made it to the semi-finals, the Roadrunners were looking to pick up where they left off in 2010. The MSS JV team defeated Windsor’s JV

team 16-12 in a hard-fought game on the brand new artificial field at Windsor secondary. Touchdowns were scored by Emmanuel Obasohan and Jesse Walker on a pass from Evan Horton. Horton was also a standout on defence, leading the team with 13 tackles. After the JV game, the varsity Roadrunners defeated the Dukes 76-20. The rushing attack was balanced between running backs Jesse Forcier (six carries for 101

yards and three touchdowns), Brenden Atkinson (90 yards and two touchdowns on six rushes), Parker Johston (79 yards and a touchdowns on seven carries), and QB Kevin Weins (five runs for 37 yards). Weins completed an efficient 14 of 16 passing attempts for 206 yards and three touchdowns. He also hit receivers on four two-point converts. Passing touchdowns were scored by Rhys Parry on a pass from Gr. 9 backup QB Evan

Horton, and by Kristjan Jakobs and Daniel Ordyzuk. Defensively, the Roadrunners were paced Zac Chamberland, Kyle Gautier, Hyatt Smith and Cam Purdy. The Roadrunners will begin their ninth campaign on Sept. 2 when they travel to Washington State to take on North Kitsap, and coach Kevin Watrin said the team is excited about the potential for a very successful 2011 football season.
