Mission votes down HST Local voters follow provincial pattern BY ADRIAN MACNAIR Mission Record

The harmonized sales tax in British Columbia has been vanquished, thanks to a provincial referendum in which nearly 55 per cent voted to “extinguish” it. Just over 45 per cent voted “no” to repeal the HST and reinstate the PST and GST, with a combined 52 per cent of registered voters weighing in. According to results released by Elections BC, 54.63 per cent of 18,106 voters in the electoral riding of Abbotsford-Mission voted to keep the tax, while 55.8 per cent

of 19,219 voters in the electoral riding of Maple RidgeMission voted to get rid of it. Abbotsford-Mission MLA Randy Adlem Hawes said he doesn’t think regional disparities had anything to do with voting choice based on which party represents the riding. “I don’t read anything into any of that, it’s just people’s personal feelings about whether they think the tax was good or bad. “People look at their personal thing and they don’t look at the big picture, and unfortunately in B.C. this is going to impact business, and business is where jobs come from.”

But Mission bbusiness owner Ted Adlem, a forT mer director on the m bboard of the B.C. Restaurant and R Foodservices AssoF Billinger ciation, welcomed the news. “I would say the people have spoken, and had the government listened to begin with, they wouldn’t have put the people in a position where they had to speak,” he said. Adlem said the restaurant industry instantly saw between a seven and eight per cent reduction in sales when the HST was introduced. He also expressed skepticism at the suggestion that reverting to the PST would make B.C. less competitive, citing Alberta,

which doesn’t have the tax. Carlo Billinger, co-owner of Rex Cox Men’s Wear on First Avenue, was sorry to see the results. “The HST worked a little fairer for my business in the respect that everybody was paying the same tax,” he said, before adding he wasn’t surprised. He said people were understandably angry about the HST, not because of the tax but the way it was introduced. “They should have taken it off food, and haircuts and beauty products and kept it at 12 (per cent) just the way it was and I think people would have been more receptive to it.” Mission Regional Chamber of

Remove tax fast, states HST fighter BY PHIL MELNYCHUK Black Press

The people have spoken, now get moving on removing the HST — sooner than the March 31, 2013 deadline announced by Finance Minister Kevin Falcon on Friday. “They put it in as quickly as they did, they can take it out as fast as they did,” said Corisa Bell, who led the local FightHST campaign. “If they don’t do this, they’re done, it doesn’t matter when the election is. Hopefully, the government is honourable. If they don’t listen, this group will get together … and make sure they’re held accountable.” The harmonized sales tax went to down to solid defeat Friday as 55 per cent of the 1.6 million British Columbians who voted in the mail-in referendum voted yes, saying they wanted to extinguish the HST and return to the provincial sales tax and federal goods and service tax. Bell said waiting until 2013 is a stalling tactic done to appease big business and said Fight HST will be pushing to have the change done before that. “The honourable thing to do is to act on this quickly, and enough of this, the people have spoken.” Uncertainty will grow in the economy as people delay purchases, Bell added. She wants to buy a used car but wants to wait until the HST is cancelled so

she’ll only have to pay the seven per cent PST. She wants the old PST/GST regime to be returned exactly the way it was before the HST was implemented July

1, 2010. Falcon though said in a Friday news release he’d do just that. “I can assure British Columbians PST will not be applied to such items

as restaurant meals, haircuts, bikes and gym memberships — just as it was before the HST was introduced in B.C. We will work as quickly as we responsibly can to return to the PST. We have always been clear that, as the independent panel found, dismantling the B.C. HST and returning to the PST will take time to do properly,” Falcon said. He estimated that scrapping the HST will cost the province about $3 billion in the next few years. The B.C. government will have to borrow to pay back the $1.6 billion transition fund from the federal government, with a payment schedule to be negotiated with Ottawa. Bell said she wasn’t surprised by the results. “I’m happy with the result. It’s a good margin to win by.” At first, she thought the Yes side, for extinguishing the HST, would win by a landslide, but then when the government launched its campaign, the result became less certain. She added it’s also time for Liberal MLA Marc Dalton (Maple Ridge-Mission) to acknowledge the result. Dalton said he’ll do that. “We are totally committed to restoring the PST with the previous exemptions.” “It’s going to take some time to untangle the tax regulations to minimize the negative impact on the economy. “We are committed to responding to what the voters of B.C. made clear today.”

Chamber urges for ‘decisive’ strategy From MISSION Page 1

Favero said the chamber is looking forward to a decisive provincial tax strategy that is equitable for all British Columbians. “The Mission chamber’s position on the HST has been neither for nor against. We recognized that some members definitely benefitted and others were hit hard by the transition, certainly in the restaurant and tourism industry,” she said. Hawes said that many people saw an increase in tax at the cash register but might not have considered how it could benefit them down the road. “Every penny that came in from the carbon tax was put back out in tax reduction in other areas,” he said.

BY TOM FLETCHER Black Press

A work-to-rule campaign by public school teachers, set to begin on the first day of school, is only one dispute expected in education in the coming year. The B.C. Teachers’ Federation (BCTF) confirmed Wednesday it will file strike notice to take effect Tuesday morning. The BCTF says phase one will be to refuse administrative duties such as meeting with principals, supervising playgrounds and writing report cards. The union and the employers’ association are far apart on a range of issues, including salary and a list of benefit improvements sought by the BCTF. One major point in dispute is the meaning of a B.C. Supreme Court decision handed down this spring

on the government’s 2002 removal of class size and composition from teacher bargaining. BCTF president Susan Lambert says the decision means the government must add $336 million to the public school budget to guarantee a level of service. “Teachers are determined in this round of bargaining to regain those lost services, jobs and resources to meet students’ needs,” Lambert said. Education Minister George Abbott has repeatedly said any settlement must fit with the government’s “net zero” mandate that other public service unions have already accepted. Abbott said in an interview Wednesday that the BCTF is demanding “restoration of the world as it existed in 2001, and once that’s done, then they’ll start talking.” Abbott said the court does not prescribe an outcome, but gives the two sides a year to work out a compromise. On another long-running dispute, Abbott said he hopes to have amendments ready for the fall legislature session to revamp the B.C. College of Teachers. He said the

current system still allows teachers who have complaints against them to surrender their teaching certificate, avoid a disciplinary record, and then get reinstated to teach in a different district later on. A review of the college last year by Victoria lawyer Don Avison found that even teachers with criminal convictions, including one case of sexual assault of students and another of cocaine trafficking, were able to resume teaching. A bright spot for the new school year is the completion of B.C.’s full-day kindergarten project, which is now available provincewide. There are 37,000 kindergarten students expected to enrol in the program, after a $150 million investment in classrooms and an operating budget expanded to $345 million. Abbott said some parents were apprehensive about putting fiveyear-olds into a full-day school program, but the pilot program last year was well received. “It was remarkable how the kids embraced play-based learning that is a part of the kindergarten program,” he said.

OPINION

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

So now what? The defeat of the HST Friday doesn’t change one fact about B.C.’s finances: We’re still spending more money than we are bringing in. The HST hoped to address that. Not necessarily by increasing the amount of tax British Columbians pay, but by improving the economy by streamlining a clumsy and archaic provincial sales tax. A more active economy, the government contended, would mean more tax revenue. That argument failed to sway many. It was lost amid the shouts and accusations over the way the HST was introduced, and suspicion it would only benefit business. Chilliwack MLA Barry Penner aptly called Friday’s referendum defeat a “self-inflicted wound.” So deep was the anger that almost every economist and business leader failed to convince the public that tossing out the PST would enhance economic activity. Even the promise to reduce the tax was seen as a crass attempt to buy the public’s favour. If there is one consensus that can be drawn from the last few months it is that the PST is a deeply flawed tax. Business people, politicians and economists agree that because of the way it is applied, it stifles growth. The other reality is that the things we want our government to pay for — health care, education, transportation — all continue to cost more. Our options are simple: Spend less, or find ways to generate additional revenue. Premier Christy Clark has promised a Plan B. Let’s hope that plan involves a thorough and transparent discussion about ways we can improve our tax structure. If the PST is flawed, Friday’s HST defeat should not preclude our changing it. But let’s talk about it first. - The Chilliwack Progress

‘People’s victory’ to bring pain N DP leader Adrian Dix couldn’t contain his glee at the result of the harmonized sales tax referendum. He seemed positively giddy that the provincial budget will forgo $3 billion in revenue over the next few years, and clearly relishes the prospect of getting back to the legislature in October to resume his demands for more spending in every ministry of the B.C. government. He can start soon, standing in passionate solidarity with B.C.’s 40,000 public school teachers as they strike to press their demands for huge increases in salary and benefits that already exceed what most private sector workers will ever see. Bill Vander Zalm was thrilled too, beaming that famous smile as he climbed in his long black Mercedes to resume his comfortable retirement. He never expected to be able to leave the province in a mess one more time, but fate has been kind to him. He probably still believes he has helped the poor, as he claimed in his nonsensical rants against the HST.

This is the “people’s victory” that Dix crowed about. B.C. and the rest of the country are entering a perilous time where retired people outnumber the young and pension plans, private and public, grow increasingly fragile. And in classic babyboomer style, our political response is self-centred and unrealistic. An efficient tax system that ends the advantage given to services over goods, while raising revenue to lift up the poorest people, is now a dirty word. To Any kind of meaningful tax reform will be politically radioactive for years to come. Resource industries, the movie business and other private sector job generators can now plan for a significant B.C. disadvantage in 2013. Ontario can celebrate. Meanwhile, demand for government services to take care of the great grey blob that is my generation can only soar. It’s not just old people out-

numbering the young. I mentioned a while back that Canada has already passed another significant milestone. Statistics Canada reported in May on the people fortunate enough to have employer-supported pension plans in addition to government pension. And it turns out that 2010 was the first year in the country’s history where more public sector workers enjoyed this benefit than private sector workers. Author Mark Steyn talks about this problem in relation to the troubles m in Europe. He refers to the “Government Party,” which is the ever-growing public sector, and the “Dependency Party,” which is everyone on pensions and welfare. When those two “parties” constitute a majority, they can force the government to satisfy their demands without regard to economic reality. This is what has happened in Greece. It is very close to happening in other European countries, and today B.C. is a

step closer to it. When the verdict came in on the HST referendum, Finance Minister Kevin Falcon talked about going around to consult the public on how to reinstate the provincial sales tax. He vowed that B.C. will somehow still balance its budget in two years, and seemed to leave the door open to some minor modifications of the sales tax system. Premier Christy Clark quickly shut that door. It would be “disrespectful” to do anything other than bring back the post-war PST in all its rustic beauty, with the little boutique exemptions like bicycles and Toyota Priuses that have been attached by politicians over the years. Self-employed business people can now look forward to collecting and remitting two separate taxes again. There will be a cost to this “people’s victory.” It will involve reducing public services, raising taxes or both.

Homeless fed through community’s donations, efforts Editor, The Record: On Aug. 20, family and friends gathered together in memory of Jozsef Csaszar and hosted a barbecue for the homeless and hungry. Anyone struggling or needing a free meal was welcome. There was a great turn out and this event was a wonderful experience for those attending, as well as those cooking, and we all met new friends. I would like to thank all the family and friends who attended and donated food and time all day. We would like to thank the Mission Legion Branch #57 for allowing us to use their tent. Also a big thank you goes out to Save On Foods, Real Canadian Superstore and Safeway for their gift card donations which help tremendously with food as well as McDonalds for providing the ice, and Pete’s Place Pizza. This was a wonderful experience for everyone that attended, a great way for the community to get together and to do something great. This started as an idea from a wonderful young man named Joe Csaszar. Thank you, Joe, for teaching us that giving is far better than receiving. You would have been proud of this event! Nick, Angela, Daniel and Julianna Csaszar Mission

First Avenue traffic needs some calming Editor, The Record: A couple of days this past week, I sat at the Sweet Shop Café on First Avenue (good eats, by the way), all the while gazing out the window listening to the drone voice of a fellow writer across the table from me preaching about religion and politics. My mind slipped away, gazing out the window watching the trucks pass by. I saw a tandem dump truck, a logging truck, another tandem dump truck, a tractor trailer carrying large steel pipes, but then the trucks’ speed caught my attention as they were passing by at about three-minute intervals or less. They sure couldn’t stop on a dime if a youngster darted out between a couple of parked cars. Thinking back 20 years when we first moved to Mission, traffic was lighter, the population less, and yet there was a better variety of stores and venues. It seemed the volume of traffic on the highway and the street was much more aware of each other. The speed was not there and the pedestrians looked both ways before crossing, even the ones that crossed in the middle of the street. If I were a big rig truck driver, I would dread the thought of those three blocks on First Avenue and want to get through that section as quickly as I could. Vehicles trying to turn onto First from a side street is a daunting task and very difficult due to obstructions of parked cars and being on a hillside, let alone pedestrian crosswalks on every corner. Cars pull out without even seeing you and the pedestrians who don’t even look crossing the street now will cross anywhere. No wonder the downtown association is having their problems trying to bring the street back to life like it was in the past. You’ve got to get rid of the big trucks on First or slow them down, make it easier to turn onto First from the side streets, and control pedestrian crossings before there is a major accident. Suggestions of a new bypass around downtown seem to be out of the question for council, and the big rig drivers travelling west who try to turn to go over the bridge to the existing bypass experience a nightmare. So what is the answer? Stoplights? Speed bumps? What is it going to take? The money spent on those ridiculous bicycle lanes markings could have gone a long ways in rectifying the First Avenue problem. Ron Wilkes Mission

Dog park fencing questioned Editor, The Record: Maple Ridge has a dog park that is completely fenced in with a gate. Owners can bring their pooches with the peace of mind that their dog will be enclosed safely. It has gates and wire fencing. Envious, I have been wishing for the same in Mission. While there are dog parks Centennial

Park and Heritage Park, neither are fenced. However, the other day I noticed the Centennial dog park area was being fenced. After a closer look, I realized the district used split-wood fencing, usually used for cattle. The fenced dog park has multiple gaps and there are no gates. It will only be of use to owners whose dogs cannot fit

through the fence or dogs that are trained to a tee. This will not be useful to myself as my dog is only 10 pounds. While he is still in his late puppy stages and does listen fairly well, if a squirrel happened to catch his attention, he would be off in no time, under the fence and possibly into oncoming traffic.

I’m sure I am not the only dog owner that would have the same problem. While I appreciate that the District of Mission has finally fenced this area, I wonder why this type of fencing was chosen. I will not be able to bring my dog there and have peace of mind for his safety. Sarah Bennett Mission

Muni auditor-general would be helpful Editor, The Record: Municipalities have not been generally receptive to the concept of a provincially appointed municipal auditor-general. I understand their hesitation as I know that at both the federal and the provincial levels auditors-general have produced reports from time to time that are embarrassing to government. At the same time, these reports are often instructive, helpful in correcting flaws, and in curbing wasteful spending. Value for money audits can be particularly revealing and rather than being

something to fear, I believe should be embraced for their instructional possibilities. Consider, for example, the bike route signage in Mission. Bicycles painted on roads all over the city where no actual bike lanes exist with sign posts at every painted road marking. I have not met anyone who understands why these were put in place nor sees the usefulness of them. We have been told that they did not cost the district anything as they were paid for with a surplus from a provincial grant to build a trail around Heritage

Event name change disrespectful to outlying residents of Mission Editor, The Record: I notice from two stories in the Aug. 18 issue of The Mission Record that the former Celebration of Community is now called Celebrate Mission. Isn’t that a bit of a slap in the face to those of us in the Fraser Valley Regional District, immediately adjacent to the east side of Mission? Most of us shop in Mission, use the library, the medical facilities and entertainments and more, and

also spend most of our volunteering hours in Mission. Didn’t this occur to anyone when the name change was suggested? First, the newspaper went from being the Fraser Valley Record to the Mission Record, now the name change for this event. I am beginning to get a feeling of not being wanted! Shirley Wiesehahn Mission

Park. The last time I checked provincial, federal, and municipal funding came from the same pockets. It just seems to me that a value for money audit on this project alone might bring home the realization that no government spending comes without cost to the taxpayer. I am pretty sure that there are plenty of other needs in Mission that could have produced better value for money than the bike route/non-bike lane signage. Randy Hawes Abbotsford-Mission MLA

Bike signs welcomed Editor, The Record: I am taking this opportunity to offer my wholehearted support to our mayor and council for promoting cycling in the community with the recently established bike routes and accompanying signage. Hopefully, the signs and pavement logos will remind all road users that under the Motor Vehicle Act, bicycles are vehicles and that those who ride them have the same rights and obligations as motorists. Finally, kudos to everyone involved in the planning and implementation of this very low cost, but reasonably effective cycling infrastructure. Alex Johnson Mission

The Fraser Valley Humane Society’s (FVHS) financial struggles continue, but demands for their assistance have not abated. Celia Durst, FVHS executive director, said

COMMUNITIES IN N BLOOM Communities in Bloom’s mandate is not only to focus on beautifying the community but also includes creating a sustainable environment. Mission has many environmental initiatives including a Recycling Program. Mission recycles using bluebags. Residents are not required to sort their recycling. All recyclables are put in the same bluebag and placed out with your compost and garbage on your curb side collection day. Recyclables should also be clean and dry when placed in the bluebag as they are hand sorted by the Recycling Program staff. Acceptable Bluebag Recyclables include: •Newspaper •Cardboard

two recent cases are a prime example of what the volunteer-run and donation-funded organization regularly sees. Monet, a grey female kitten, was found on North Railway Street in a large plastic pail with the lid shut, and no air holes drilled through. And she wasn’t alone. The mother and six kittens were inside, but by the time the bucket was discovered, the matriarch had died, and over the ensuing weeks, the rest of the cats passed away, save Monet. She likely has brain and heart damage from the lack of oxygen, said Durst, noting she will be adopted by the person who’s currently fostering the curious kitty. A black male kitten found in the Sisto’s Liquor Store parking lot needed to have his tail amputated, because it appears someone swung him around by his tail, said Durst. Felix came through the delicate surgery fine, and will likely make a solid recovery. He will be adopted by the woman who found him, Durst added. The FVHS needs about $7,000 monthly to be comfortable, and this doesn’t include emergency veterinary bills. If not for the public’s and vets’ generosity, the society would be in dire straits, she said. If you are interested in helping, go to fraservalleyhumanesociety.com, or call 604-820-2977.

The local Christian school has relocated from its home on Cherry Avenue to a new, temporary site on Dewdney Trunk Road. ADRIAN MACNAIR PHOTO

Valley Christian moves BY ADRIAN MACNAIR Mission Record

Valley Christian School has moved from its location at Cedar Street and Cherry Avenue up the road to Cedar and Dewdney Trunk Road right beside the MusiKids Childcare Centre. Paul Burns, chairman of Val-

leyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s board of directors, said some people have mistakenly assumed the school closed down, but portable classrooms are already set up in the new locale and are ready to accept students when class begins in two weeks. The portables are only a temporary home, Burns added. The school has purchased a lot on Cedar

just north of Tunbridge Avenue, and will pursue constructing a permanent building on that site pending approval from the municipality. Burns said the move was necessary because their five-year lease expired and the buildings at the old school are now being demolished. Valley Christian has about 100 students enrolled for September.

Layton condolence book at MPâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office in Maple Ridge Conservative member of parliament Randy Kamp set aside politics Thursday by announcing his office will keep a book of condolences for people to sign which will be given the family of NDP Leader Jack Layton. The MP for Pitt Meadows-Maple RidgeMission praised Laytonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;tireless, passionate commitment to the things in which he believedâ&#x20AC;? and offered his â&#x20AC;&#x153;heartfelt sympathyâ&#x20AC;? to Laytonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wife Olivia, his family, his colleagues

Witnesses are sought The Abbotsford Police Department (APD) is wanting to hear from two men who assisted at the scene of a fatal collision in Agassiz July 12. The APD is continuing to investigate the crash in which a Chilliwack RCMP cruiser collided with a Mustang occupied by 20-year-old driver Steve Genberg of Mission and a 19-year-old male passenger. Genberg died in hospital July 18. Genberg was reportedly leading a convoy of four or five vehicles en route to Harrison Hot Springs, travelling along Lougheed Highway near Bodnar Road when the crash occurred at about 11 p.m. Const. Ian MacDonald said two men in a red or burgundy sedan assisted at the crash scene, but left before investigators were able to interview them or get their names. It is believed that one or both of them were volunteer firefighters on their way from Agassiz to Vancouver. One of the men mentioned he had family from Yugoslavia, and the other indicated he was a mortgage broker, MacDonald said. He said it is believed the menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vehicle might have been passed by the police car a few moments before the crash. MacDonald said neither man has since come forward to share information with police. He said they might be from out of town, or believe they have nothing to add to the investigation. Anyone with information about the two men is asked to contact the APD at 604-859-5225.

and friends. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He could be tenacious but I always found respectful, even though we disagreed on a lot of things,â&#x20AC;? said Kamp. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I admired his hard work. He is going to be missed in the House of Commons.â&#x20AC;? Layton succumbed to cancer on Monday at age 61. Layton had fought

prostate cancer since 2010, but in July announced he faced a second, undisclosed cancer. People are encouraged to drop by Kampâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office at 22720 Lougheed Hwy. to sign the book. Kamp will take the book to Ottawa and present it to Laytonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s family when Parliament resumes in September.

Big City Soul was formed this January, comprised of members of various top Vancouver area bands, including six members of the former Top City band. The group boasts a grooving rhythm section, a dynamic horn section, and two lead singers. Musical influences include Stevie Wonder, Chicago, Blood Sweat & Tears, Aretha Franklin, and Etta James. With a set list that may include such raucous favourites as Dancing in the Streets, Doin’ it Right, I Feel Good, and Mustang Sally, you can bet there will be dancing.

Delivering Motown and soul music, this group is bursting with personality and energy. Their motto is “there ain’t no party like a Big City party” so they invite one and all to finish up this season’s Twilight series with a bang. Big City Soul is Connie Ballendine and Terry Raible on vocals, Chris Georgas on keyboards, Johan Worst on bass, Ken Abel on baritone sax, Michael Toth on guitar, Steve Webb on drums, Terry Linburg on tenor sax, and Adrian Smith on trumpet.

SOMETIMES LOVING OTHERS IS DIFFICULT Although loving those around us is sometimes easy, at other times it may seem almost impossible. When we are feeling good and our friends and family are treating us well, loving them is easy and affords no great credit to us. But when others treat us poorly, especially when they do things that we consider unforgivable, loving them can be extremely difficult. However, when we are able to love them under these trying circumstances, it is a credit to our goodness and a true reflection of God’s unconditional love. When thinking only of how good it feels to love and be loved, we may mistakenly be tempted to think that loving others is easy. We should remember that loving others, especially those who hate us or do us harm, can sometimes be very difficult. It may be the hardest thing that we are called upon to do. God’s commandment to love our neighbor is something that we should strive to do on a daily basis. The greatest love is that which loves when love seems truly impossible.

statutory right-ofways (SRWs) over private properties for the purpose of either underground infrastructure, such as water pipes, or above ground works such as pathways, trails or walkways. People who own properties in these situations sometimes question who is responsible for upkeep. In general, as the property is owned privately, it is the property owners’ responsibility to maintain the SRW surface just as they

would any other part of their property. The district has the right to enter the property if there is necessary maintenance needed of the specified infrastructure, but it is the owners’ responsibility to maintain the surface unless otherwise noted on the SRW document registered at Land Titles. If you’re not sure if you have a SRW on your property you can check the district webmap system at www.mission.ca or by calling 604-820-3736.

Protect yourself with electrical fire safety precautions If a fuse blows or a circuit breaker trips often, find out why and correct the problem. Replace fuses with the correct amp rating for the circuit they protect; never replace a fuse with a higher rated fuse. If the problem continues, call an electrician. • Only plug one heatproducing appliance into an outlet at a time. Buy only appliances that have the label of a recognized testing laboratory. • Replace cracked and damaged electrical cords. Pinching cords against walls or furniture or running them under carpets or across doorways can cause fire. Use extension cords for temporary wiring only. • Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for plugging an appliance into a receptacle outlet. Avoid overloading outlets. Plug only one high-wattage appliance into each receptacle outlet at a time. Consider having additional circuits or receptacles added by a qualified electrician. • If an appliance is malfunctioning unplug it if it is safe to do so. If necessary, cut off power by unscrewing a fuse or turn off the breaker. • Arc-fault circuit interrupters (AFCls) are a new kind of circuit breaker that shut off electricity when a dangerous condition occurs. Consider

having them installed in your home. Use a qualified electrician. • Ground-fault circuit interrupters (GFCls) reduce the risk of shock. GFCls shut off an electrical circuit when it becomes a shock hazard.

• Tamper-resistant receptacles have shutters that close off the slots of the receptacle. These receptacles are important in making a home a safe place for children. • Keep ladders away from overhead power

lines including the electrical service into your home. Never touch a power line. Stay at a safe distance - you could be electrocuted. Report downed power lines to authorities. Some power lines are underground.

Call your local authority regarding digging. In homes with small children, install tamper-resistant receptacles. If receptacles or switches feel warm shut off the circuit and have

them checked by an electrician. Do not place cloth over a light bulb to diffuse or soften the light. Buying a low wattage or soft white or pastel light bulb can help achieve this effect

without a fire hazard. Use light bulbs that match the recommended wattage on the lamp or fixture. Call a qualified electrician or landlord if you have recurring problems.

Mission boxers earn unanimous decision wins in Seattle tourney Cody Brown and Sean McIntosh each earned another win in their records at a recent boxing tournament in Seattle, Wash. Cody Brown, 14, fought Bryant Ayala from Oregonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Chief Cornerstone Boxing. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We knew that this was going to be a tough fight for Cody because Bryant came in with over 100 fights compared to Codyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 34,â&#x20AC;? said Mission Boxing Club coach Dale Gatin. Ayala came out in the first round very aggressively, trying to work the body. Brown had an excellent defense, said Gatin, and was able to counter Ayala with a straight right hand. In the second round they both stood

toe-to-toe and traded combinations, but by the third, Brownâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s conditioning paid off and he was able to back Ayala up with his jab and right-hand left hook. Brown won the unanimous decision. Sean McIntosh, 18, fought Jeremy McCleary from Seattle. McCleary had 64 fights compared to Seanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 25 fights. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We knew that Jeremy was a brawler, and so we used Seanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s height to advantage and he kept Jeremy away with his long reach and excellent defensive skills,â&#x20AC;? Gatin related. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sean was able to counterpunch Jeremy ... scoring a lot of points.â&#x20AC;? McIntosh went on to win an easy unanimous decision.

Whether it sports a cartoon superhero like Batman, pop star Miley Cyrus or is covered in band logo patches, a backpack can be the ultimate way for students to express their unique personality. While style is surely detrimental to little tykes, tweens and teens, safety should also play a deciding factor in the purchase of a brand new backpack. When it comes to backpack safety, most people tend to think about injuries caused by a heavy backpack or one worn improperly. However, there are other dangers associated with backpacks and caution should be used. Backpacks come in all shapes and sizes and can be a handy tool for students or adults. When worn correctly, with weight evenly distributed across the back and shoulders, backpacks can be safer and more effective than using a purse or briefcase. But many people wear overly loaded backpacks slung over one shoulder, which can pose problems with posture and lead to back issues. In addition to the physical strain backpacks can cause, they can be a danger in other ways. Many people fail to recognize how much space a backpack can take up. Entering the tight quarters of a school bus or commuting on a train or bus means a bulky backpack can knock into other people. If that backpack is full

of heavy, cumbersome books or even a laptop computer, an inadvertent bump by the pack can cause injuries. Also, backpacks taken off and placed in bus aisles can be a tripping hazard. Students also can be injured if a heavy pack falls on them. Children tucking backpacks into lockers or classroom cubbies may find that they slide out and hit another classmate. Backpacks change the way individuals walk. Because the person is carrying around extra weight, he or she may lose balance or trip and fall, especially when going down steps. And donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t overload a backpack. Carry only what is necessary. If too many books are the issue, parents should talk to the school administrators and teachers to reach a happy medium regarding textbook usage. When on the bus, safely store the backpack on a lap or under the seat.

Help kids develop healthy lifestyle Students are more likely to succeed if they are healthy and active. With families preparing for the start of school, here are some tips to encourage healthy eating and an active lifestyle: Primary students: • Include a variety of fruits and vegetables in your children’s

snacks and lunches every day. • Have your children help you pack their lunches, so they can learn to make healthy choices early on. • Help your children learn about and understand Canada’s Food Guide. • To encourage fitness take family walks with your children and,

if possible, walk them to school. • Introduce your children to active games they can play on their own, like hopscotch or jumping rope. When more children are around, introduce tag, soccer or baseball. See LIMIT Page g 22
