INSPECTION FEE CHALLENGED Residents ask that the district’s $5,200 fee be dropped, after inspection of properties with high hydro use finds problems. PAGE 3

Mission Institution will be getting a $15 million addition, expanding the federal medium security facility by 96 units. Stockwell Day, the president of the Treasury Board, was on site at the prison Monday morning to make the announcement. He said the Conservative government’s tough-on-crime approach will mean prisoners spend more time in jail, referring specifically to Bill C-25, the Truth in Sentencing Act. It came into effect in February, and reduces the amount of credit prisoners can receive for

spending time in remand – ending a longstanding practice of courts counting two days in remand as equivalent to one day in prison. Day said the 96 additional prison spaces will be used to protect society, make communities safer and rehabilitate offenders. It is part of $2 billion in Corrections expansion budgeted over the next five years, which will build 2,700 beds in mens and womens corrections facilities across Canada. “We have done what we believe the people of Canada are asking us to do,” said Day. Warden Diane Knopf said the medium security institution was built in 1975 to hold 228 prisoners, but with double bunking presently

houses 274. The 96 new units should be operational by October 2013. Knopf said the expansion will bring an additional 30 jobs, including security staff, case management workers and program providers. Mayor James Atebe and Chamber of Commerce manager Michelle Favero both spoke at the announcement, thanking the government for the funding and noting it will help stimulate the local economy. Mission Institution is one of 10 federal prisons in the province. Expansion began last October with a 96-bed unit at Kent Maximum Security in Agassiz

Businesses support new strip mall BY

CAROL AUN

Mission Record

Local businesses and residents are shopping for a new strip mall and they hope Mission council will be buying into it too. Nearly everyone who spoke at the public hearing and more than a dozen written submissions supported the development Monday night. Neighbouring businesses, such as the Mission Springs Restaurant and Fraser Valley Building Supplies noted some traffic details still have to be finalized, but the applicant, Fraser Valley Shopping Centres, have been working with them. The proposed development is located between the Mission Springs Restaurant and Mission Auto Body in the 31900 block of the Lougheed Highway. The aim is to construct a 94,500 square foot anchor store and four smaller buildings ranging in size from 3,000 to 10,000 sq. ft. The entire site is made up of four pieces of land totaling nine acres. Two of the four parcels are already zoned for such a development, and the other two pieces need to be rezoned to accommodate the use. “The representatives of Smart Centres have included Fraser Valley Building Supplies early on and have been sensitive to our traffic needs,” said store owner Dave Nick. Jeff Devins, who owns two of the four properties the developer needs for the project, reminded council he wanted to build a storage facility at that location a couple of years ago, but was told the land is prime commercial space, not suitable for just storage. “We looked for someone to do this, to keep retail dol-

lars in the community,” said Devins. “This proposal is everything that was requested of us.” Michelle Favero spoke not as the chamber manager or on behalf of businesses, but as a resident and mother of three active daughters. She estimates she spends $18,000 in other communities every year, despite her desire to support local businesses. “I try to shop local,” she said, but the lack of outlets for sporting equipment and fashion choices have forced her to take her family elsewhere. The only speaker opposed to the development was Tracy Lyster, speaking on behalf of Citizens Against Urban Sprawl Society. “We support well planned development on the waterfront that would decrease car usage, help revitalize downtown and promote small businesses,” said Lyster. “The idea that too many shopping centres can interfere with the waterfront is a concern.” Lyster also speculated on what the anchor store would be and noted some negative impacts big box stores have on small communities. A few other speakers, including former councillor Ron Taylor disagreed with a consultants report which suggests supporting a power centre, or big box mall, in an area outside the waterfront, would affect the rate of build out. “This doesn’t compete with the waterfront,” said Taylor, adding “Any centre at the waterfront is a long way away.” The developers plan to build the project in phases, and to find occupants for the buildings as soon as possible. Council will review the information received Monday night and consider moving the project forward at a later date.

Challenging PSIT fees BY

CAROL AUN

Mission Record

Property owners facing a $5,200 bill after having their property examined by the district’s Public Safety Inspection Team (PSIT) are learning it’s not easy getting the fee overturned or even reduced. Five landowners over the past few weeks tried to convince council to eliminate the fees after they remediated their properties. Everyone described the burden of the bill, but after reviewing each case, council only asked for one file to be looked into further and assess whether or not the charge could be reduced. In all the cases, there was an unusually high hydro consumption at the homes and inspectors found evidence of a grow op. However, Mayor James Atebe noted the district isn’t going after homes with marijuana grow ops, it is dealing with safe power usage. In every case when PSIT posted an inspection notice at the home, the power consumption was reduced significantly the next day. “We’re preventing fires with this program,” said Atebe. If the inspection team finds no faults with the building, they do not levy an inspection fee. Last week the team entered four homes and found legitimate uses for the high power consumption. The property owners didn’t receive a bill. But that’s not always the case. For

for all your

example, the power usage in a home in the 33100 block of Cherry Avenue was reduced from 83.2 kilowatts per day to 26 kw/day when the notice was posted. Investigators also found the gas vent had been modified, plant remnants and mould on the premises. Power usage in the 7300 block of Catherwood Street was reduced from 161 kw/day to 62 kw/day after the notice was posted. An active bypass was found on the property as well as grow op equipment, plant remnants, and a strong marijuana smell. Owners of the property located in the 33000 block of Cardinal Avenue might be the only ones to get a break because the landlord convinced council he was diligent in checking on the house, which was used as a rental unit. Hydro consumption was reduced by more than half after the notice was posted and inspectors found open wiring in the crawl space, disconnected wires in the electrical panel, mould and some plant remnants. Both the landlord and his wife are on disability, but they visit the home at least once every two months and didn’t notice anything out of the ordinary until PSIT visited the home on June 11, 2010. The tenant, who was terminally ill with cancer, had been renting the home for three years, and the landlords had developed a “close relationship” with him. “This isn’t an easy decision,” said Coun. Paul Horn, who initiated the re-

view. “The landlord did everything he could. It’s clear to me they tried to accommodate someone going through some difficulties.” Coun. Mike Scudder was concerned about creating a sliding scale. The fees are based on the average amount of time it takes the team to work on a file, Fire Chief Ian Fitzpatrick told The Record. “There’s quite a bit of work that goes into it.” The team collects data, checks the background of the property, posts the notice, inspects the property and reinspects it again when the property has been remediated. “Our team of inspectors is very conservative in how they go about it.” A fire inspector, building inspector and electrical inspector go into each home and all three have to come to the same conclusion. Property owners get an invoice and if they don’t pay it, it will be added to their property tax bill. The program is designed to be revenue neutral, not burdening other taxpayers. The district is also working with the Fraser Valley Real Estate board to try to protect prospective homebuyers from purchasing property that could be hazardous. If the home owner doesn’t rectify the problems found by inspectors, it will be registered on the land title, and removed only when a final inspection is passed. In the two years that PSIT has been working, no fees have been overturned.

Busted in poppy field Local man caught in opium bust A 24-year-old Mission resident is facing charges in connection with an opium poppy plant bust in Chilliwack on Monday, Aug. 23. The Mission resident and a 31-year-old Abbotsford resident were tending to the crop when Mounties arrived with a search warrant on the seven-acre field. The more than 60,000 plants were in various stages of growth and police are calling it the largest crop of its kind found in Canada. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a significant seizure,â&#x20AC;?

said Cpl. Kurt Bosnell of the Chilliwack RCMP drug section. Investigators believe the opium was being grown to produce a substance known as doda. The opium powder is made by grinding the dried seed pod of the opium poppy into a fine powder. It is often taken with tea or hot water, and produces a quick high followed by a sense of well being. While the use of doda is a new trend in opium consumption, its

use appears to be primarily localized within certain South Asian communities. The property was being leased and the owner was not involved, according to police. A local farmer was contracted to help eradicate the crop and ensure the plants donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t reproduce next spring. The two suspects are facing charges of production of a controlled substance and possession for the purpose of trafficking a controlled substance. They are scheduled to appear in court next on Dec. 14,

Fishermanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s body found The body of the missing fisherman from North Delta was found last Thursday near Mission. That was two days after he slipped into the river near Old Orchard Road in Chilliwack, and was taken by the current. Police say the deceased was confirmed to be Randy Garrecht

of North Delta. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our thoughts remain with his family and friends at this difficult time,â&#x20AC;? said Cpl. Lea-Anne Dunlop. The search had been ongoing for more than two days when the discovery was made in the Fraser River near Mission.

Garrecht had been presumed drowned after he slipped from the rocks into the fast moving water without a life jacket. His friend jumped into the water in an attempt to save him, and had to be pulled from the water by a nearby boater.

Sockeye run leaps again to 34 million ‘We’re right at the breaking point’ BY JEFF

NAGEL

Black Press

Fishery managers have again upped their count of the Fraser River sockeye run, this time to 34 million. Tuesday’s increase of an estimated four million additional salmon was the third revision of the count in a week by the Pacific Salmon Commission. The stunning run is now three times what had been projected in advance and more than 20 times as many fish as returned in the last two catastrophic years, which sparked a federal inquiry that soon gets underway. “I’ve never seen anything like it,” said Glen Browning, a former commercial fisherman living in South Surrey. He was angling for sockeye on the Fraser near Agassiz Monday evening with five other friends. “We caught 12 fish in about two hours,” he said. “You could feel them going by your legs.” The record return – the largest since 1913 – was upgraded because the num-

ber of late-running sockeye destined for Shuswap Lake area of the watershed continues to climb. Another 12-hour opening for Fraser River gillnetters was announced for Thursday starting at 7 a.m., in addition to a similar opening Wednesday. Fish processors continue to struggle to keep up. “We’re right at the breaking point,” said Mike Denike of Surrey-based Sundance Seafood Ltd. “Everything’s full. All the totes are being used. The ice houses are pumping out the ice as fast as they can. It’s tense.” One fisherman he works with caught 5,000 sockeye in a single 24-hour opening, Denike said. “It’s encouraging the fish are back – that puts the sustainability issue to rest a little bit. I sure hope it continues.” Many fishermen are also selling direct to the public at docks along the Fraser, rather than dealing with the declining prices offered by brokers.

Charity work Mission RCMP Const. Carl Wellwood lived on this scissor lift, parked at The Junction, for 48 hours recently. He raised $6,000 for the Canadian Cancer Society, and is also raising awareness of the upcoming Tour de Valley cycle fundraiser. During that event, emergency services personnel from around the Valley will undertake a marathon cycling event to benefit the Cancer Society. It will run from Sept. 23 to Oct. 1. BOB FRIESEN PHOTO

ICBC trims basic insurance rates 2.4 per cent cut the first in a decade BY JEFF

NAGEL

Black Press

Motorists will get a modest break on basic auto insurance premiums after years of fat profits for the Insurance Corporation of B.C. The public auto insurer has been ordered to reduce basic rates 2.4 per

cent effective Nov. 1. It’s a deeper cut than the 1.9 per cent ICBC had proposed because regulators at the B.C. Utilities Commission (BCUC) decided expenses were lower than expected, leaving room to lop off another half point. “They crunched the numbers and came up with a slightly different calculation,” ICBC president and CEO Jon Schubert said in an interview. “It’s the first time we’ve been able to reduce basic rates in more than a decade.” Less frequent claims and better driving weather are the main reasons for the reduced expenses, even though average claim costs continue to climb, especially for injury crashes.

“It’s our customers’ smart driving that really allows us to do this,” Schubert said. ICBC will have to cut much further, Schubert however, to get basic rates back down to 2005 levels – increases in 2006 and 2007 raised basic premiums nearly 10 per cent. ICBC recorded another $232 million in net earnings for the first half of this year, the latest in a long string of hefty profits. And the provincial government this year moved to tap some of the cash ICBC generates to pay down B.C.’s deficit.

It ordered ICBC to hand over $487 million from its reserves and set aside similar dividends for Victoria in future years. Canadian Taxpayers Federation spokesperson Maureen Bader said rates should be cut even further so there’s less surplus money left for the province to raid. “There’s no way the average driver should have to be subsidizing the govenment’s pet projects like the B.C. Place roof and green energy subsidies,” she said. But Schubert said payments to the province are unrelated to basic rates, because they are paid out of profits made on the optional side of ICBC’s business. Basic rates are regulated by the

BCUC because they are compulsory for all motorists and no private insurers compete with ICBC to provide the service. Optional rates, where there is competition, is unregulated. ICBC cut optional rates 3.3 per cent last year and dropped them 17 per cent over the past five years. Some industry observers have also questioned the need for ICBC’s large $3.1-billion reserve account. Schubert said it’s appropriate and noted ICBC’s reserve ratio is less than the industry average. “All insurance companies carry a certain amount of capital to make sure we’re able to meet our obligations and protect our customers from rate shock,” he said.

OPINION

The politics of the gun registry

he political posturing over a private member’s bill on the infamous long gun registry is a classic example of how the federal government is not working, at least partially because of perpetual minority governments. A bill which would lead to the abolition of the registry is set to come to a vote later this next month. The Conservatives are rallying behind the bill, sponsored by one of their Manitoba MPs. The Liberals, even though eight of their MPs voted for the bill at an earlier stage, are being “whipped” into voting against it by their leader, Michael Ignatieff. The NDP is leaving it up to individual MPs to vote as they choose. Several plan to support the bill — perhaps as many as 12, mostly from rural ridings, where the gun registry is seen as a heavy-handed bureaucracy that wastes money and does little to catch criminals. All Bloc Quebecois MPs plan to vote against the bill — somewhat surprisingly, as many Bloc MPs represent rural ridings where the registry is as unpopular as it is in other rural parts of Canada. The registry remains very unpopular with those who actually get caught up in its bureaucracy, and can’t see the point in filling out forms and spending money to register guns, which they use as tools in everyday life. NDP leader Jack Layton, who plans to vote against the bill, is suggesting that there needs to be more compromise. He says the registry has some good points, but it is foolish to make failure to register guns a criminal offence. Layton actually appears to have listened to the genuine concerns that many people have with this unwieldy government program. It is important to note a few of crucial facts — facts which are often glossed over by the Liberals, who brought in the registry. First, no criminal will ever register a gun. Second, all legal handguns in Canada have been registered since the 1930s. Third, handguns are used in almost all crimes committed with guns. Fourth, almost all handguns used in those crimes are smuggled into Canada from the U.S. While police chiefs support the registry, knowing that it is a tool which gives them some additional information, its practical applications are very limited, and do nothing to stem the flow of guns into the hands of criminals.

Mine deals a breakthrough C

hief Derek Orr spoke with a new confidence when he visited the B.C. legislature last week to sign a ground-breaking deal to share provincial taxes from a mine development. Two summers ago when I met him at the McLeod Lake reserve north of Prince George, he was newly elected, looking younger than his 35 years and unused to speeches and media interviews. The prosperous logging and construction businesses the McLeod Lake Indian Band had built were struggling, and things would soon get worse. For years the nearby mill town of Mackenzie was the poster child for a declining B.C. forest industry, but now the region is back on a roll. To Sawmills and the pulp mill have started up again, construction for coal mines, gas development and wind farms is booming, and for the first time, the Crown would share its mining revenues in recognition of clearly demonstrated aboriginal title. The pine beetle and the U.S.-led market collapse took its toll, Orr noted at the signing ceremony. “We had to cut budgets by over 44 per cent, $3 million within our organization,” he said. “But I’m happy to say

we’re on the upswing again, and our future is bright.” McLeod Lake gets an estimated $3438 million share of B.C. resource royalties during the life of the Mt. Milligan copper-gold project. The B.C. government signed a second deal last week with two aboriginal communities near Kamloops to expand the dormant Afton Mine, giving them a one-third share, good for another $30 million. The standard government approach has been to grapple with resource sharing in treaty negotiations, or leave the problem to the private sector. Investors had to design projects, undertake huge environmental assessments and negotiate training, employment and infrastructure deals with aboriginal communities. m Mt. Milligan’s developers have been at it for a decade, and they still have a competing claim from the Nak’azdli Band near Fort St. James to deal with. Minister of State for Mines Randy Hawes says the door is open to similar tax-sharing talks with the Nak’azdli, but warns that the size of a group and strength of its territorial claim can vary widely. The Afton and Mt. Milligan mine deals were apparently what Energy and

Mines Minister Bill Bennett was referring to when I spoke to him in late July about the prospects for the Prosperity gold-copper mine near Williams Lake. Bennett promised a public offer to area aboriginal communities for revenue sharing in the Prosperity mine. This provoked a swift and negative response from the Tsilhqot’in National Government, the regional group that has battled in court for years to declare that the Crown has no title to the region their ancestors fought and died for in the Chilcotin War of the 1860s. The federal cabinet is considering a final decision on a Crown permit for the Prosperity mine, in another logging region that will feel the effects of beetle kill for decades. At worst, the situation looks as if it could slip into another Oka or Gustafson Lake confrontation. After many years of following agonizingly slow treaty negotiations, and listening to the constant drumbeat of grievances from groups such as the Union of B.C. Indian Chiefs, I’m pleased to add McLeod Lake to B.C. aboriginal success stories at Westbank, Osoyoos, Klahoose, Tsawwassen, Maa-Nulth and others who have put the past behind them. Orr plans to put mining revenues in a trust fund for health, education, culture and Sekani language teaching. Sometimes putting the past behind you is the only way to preserve it. tfletcher@blackpress.ca

uestion of the Week:

YOUR VIEWS Wanting better for downtown Mission Editor, The Record; In trying to stem the decline of a downtown core, we have added another cheque-cashing store in Mission. We used to have a bakery downtown. We used to have a video store. Still more recently a Home Hardware. They are gone, but in moves pawn shops and the aforementionned. Any further decline will bring adult entertainment, in my opinion. We used to have in Mission’s downtown a theatre. There was a drive-in burger joint. I went there as a teen.

Up the road from there a car dealership closed its doors. We even had a full service hospital. It’s not like people aren’t moving to Mission – why else would they be widening the Cedar Valley Connector to four lanes? That’s about the only progress Mission has made in recent years. Heck, even pan handlers and drug addiction is tolerated. I yearn for betterment in Mission, in this next upswing in the economy. Art Walker Mission

THE MISSION RECORD – THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 2, 2010

Off-leash park opportunities Editor, The Record; As the $5,200 inspection fee levied against numerous alleged violators of Missions “Controlled Substance Property Bylaw’ will amount to a windfall for the district, why should the monies not be used to finance at “relatively minimal cost,” the $7,000 slated to establish an offleash dog park in Centennial park. However, after witnessing staff and council discussing the off-leash area I’m wondering if some of the evidence from the grow-ops is stored in municipal hall and getting into the circulation vents. The boundary of the unfenced area is to be established by shrubbery and signage! What are the liability risks if an illiterate dog fails to read or just ignores the signage and runs

into traffic? After taking more deep breaths from the ventilation, one councillor requested a rehydration facility, while another councillor suggested that for future off-leash areas there be separated areas for big and little canines. To look on the positive side, the district could turn this into a “make work project” for the Parks Department, with economic spinoffs.

Province will need new power sources Editor, The Record; It was not more two or three years ago that the media was filled with stories about the coming age of electric vehicles. Scores of reports at the time spoke of designs for electric vehicles sitting on drawing boards and of early prototypes undergoing testing in the lab as technical hurdles were being overcome. Fast forward to the present and it seems what were once electric

dreams are now showing up in communities everywhere for real world road testing. This is very good news because it’s a sign that production models can’t be far behind. The question I have, though, is where all the electricity to power these electric vehicles is going to come from? All of the electricity produced in this province is currently spoken for and we are reportedly

TO MY PATIENTS I regret to inform that I will be retiring and closing my practice as of February, 2011.

We would like to thank you all for giving us the opportunity to deliver medical care. Yours truly, A.K. MEHRA, M.D.

importing a fair amount of electricity to fill the gap between production and demand. When a couple hundred thousand electric vehicles hit the streets of British Columbia’s urban areas will we be ready with a suitable supply of clean, non-emitting electricity or will we be caught off guard and find

ourselves having to import even more coal-fired electricity from outside this province to keep these clean electric vehicles running? If the transition to electric vehicles in this province is going to be successful we need make certain we have the clean electricity needed to power this revolution.

If we don’t, we will be defeating the whole purpose of having electric vehicles and perpetuating our dependence on fossil fuels instead of finally getting ahead of the game. Yolanda Lora Vilchis Surrey

Is there anyone on staff to fit into this category, or would the position need to be outsourced? There are definitely opportunities waiting to be seized, including selling dog treats, canine paraphernalia and etiquette pamphlets. For the budding entrepreneurs, do not hesitate to get on the ground floor of this venture. Then once this mini industry is in place, what do you think the cat owners will say? Will common sense, which is not too common these days, prevail? Jeanette Smith Silverhill

THE MISSION RECORD – THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 2, 2010

Cal Crawford The “GO TO” Realtor with over 30 years of experience.

Zoning in on residential areas The Record is featuring the beat constables in each of Mission’s four policing zones. According to police statistics, about 75 per cent of all calls are handled by frontline workers known as general duty members. About five per cent of offenders are repeat offenders, and they make up the bulk of need for service. Some 20 per cent of calls

are from recurring problems that may not be addressed well in a traditional policing model. Zone officers try to address this 20 per cent. Two weeks ago we presented the idea and purpose behind this policing method and introduced constables in Zone A and Zone B. This week’s spotlight is on Const. Dean Caughy in Zone C.

Mission Record

Const. Dean Caughy is the first police officer overseeing an area known as Zone C on the RCMP policing map in Mission. Zone C is mostly residential neighbourhoods and encompasses the area north of Third Avenue to Richards Street, and from Nelson Street in the west to Shook Road in the east. This was the last zone to have a constable dedicated to it, and Caughy, who began the position in April, is already making a difference. When he started the position, there were a number of dumpster fires being investigated, and the big file naturally landed on his desk. “It turned into quite an investigation,” said Caughy, noting many sections worked and collaborated on the case. “I was the file coordinator on that. I was tasked with taking all the evidence, putting it together and forwarding it to Crown.” Now there are charges, ranging from arson to mischief and theft, pending on four youths. Caughy didn’t get to ease into his position, but it earned him valuable experiences

Now, Caughy is focussing on other areas, and some problems aren’t as visible. Zone C is a large area and “I try to get to as many places as I can on every shift, but it’s not always possible.” Caughy will follow up on problem areas and with people reporting suspicious activity in their neighbourhood. He relies on residents keeping an eye on their neighbourhood to let him know what’s going on. Some people will even keep a log, giving the zone constable something to follow. There are some regular clients Caughy has come to know, but he notes the problem areas or hot spots often move from one part of town to another. It’s a challenge keeping up with all the activity, but he knows that’s what he signed up for. “I’d like to make sure everyone in Mission who are experiencing problems get some resolution,” said Caughy, noting not every problem is solved with a charge. Sometimes it’s enough when people know police are concerned about their behaviour. “Success can be measured in different ways. Our overall goal is to reduce crime.”

HAYWARD LAKE RECREATION SITE: PARKING GUIDELINES Hayward Lake is one of the most popular BC Hydro recreation sites in the province. We encourage the public to enjoy the area, and be familiar with the parking policies. They’re in place to ensure public safety and emergency access.

Why does BC Hydro limit parking access? BC Hydro limits visitor parking to ensure emergency vehicles have access to the site. Long line-ups can block Dewdney Trunk Road in Mission and access into the park.

Take the

heat

In cooperation with the Mission RCMP who have policing authority for the area, BC Hydro does not permit line-ups outside the gate because the line-ups impact emergency access. What is the policy? Once the parking lot is full, the gate is closed until enough spaces are available to handle visitor capacity for the rest of the day. Parking lots may have a number of spaces available while the gates are still closed. Other non-BC Hydro regional parks in the Lower Mainland have similar policies.

BBQ ROASTED HALF CHICKEN DINNER

Why can’t the public drop-off and pick-up people inside the gate? Drop-offs and pick-ups also cause line-ups, preventing emergency access to the park. Public safety is a priority for BC Hydro.

This latest round of funding is providing 814 groups in B.C. with about $24.9 million in community gaming grants. In April, the province combined two gaming grant programs, bingo affiliation and direct access, into the Community Gaming Grant program. In total, the government has budgeted $120 million for gaming grants in 2010-2011. The grants fund organizations that support people in need, public safety, youth arts and sports, education and parent and district advisory councils.

Tips for a smooth start to school As Mission parents count down the days until their children return to school on Sept. 7, here are some tips they should consider to make sure their kids start the year on the right foot, as recommended by the province’s Ministry of

Education. Primary Students: Q Confirm what time school will start on the first day. Q If your children are going to a new school, check with the school to see what information

or identification will be required on registration day. Q Get your children used to the back-toschool routine before the first day of school by having them shift to their school bedtime and wake-up routine a week before school begins. Q Have your children choose their outfits the night before the first day to help start the morning calmly and efficiently. Q Find out how your child’s teacher communicates with parents and take advantage of the opportunities available. Q Get involved in the school community. Contact your local board of education or the Parent Advisory Council at your child’s school for volunteer opportunities.

Intermediate/Middle Students: Q Review your children’s class schedules with them to ensure all of their classes are correct. Q Help your children figure out a plan for getting to class on time, especially if classes are at opposite ends of the building. Q If your children are going to a new school, encourage them to check out the school before their first day. Have them locate the gym, library, cafeteria and their classrooms to get them acquainted with the facilities. Q Talk to your children about the upcoming school year; be positive and remind them of the friends they will meet, the new things they will learn and the fun they will have. Q Continue to be involved in the school community as this is a great way to get to know

your children’s teachers and other parents. Secondary Students: Q If your teenagers are going to a new school, have them arrange a visit to learn where to find their classrooms, the gym, the library and the cafeteria so they will feel more comfortable on their first day. Q Encourage your teenagers to review their schedules and make an appointment with a school counsellor if there are any conflicts or mistakes. Q Have them practise the combination on their locks to ensure they know the combination and that the locks work properly. Q Work with your child, their teacher and principal to ensure courses, programs and graduation requirements are being met. Q Continue to be involved in the school community.

Literacy the key Literacy is not only one of the key goals of education, but it is also a critical requirement for your child’s success in school, and in life. Be interested in what your children are learning. Help relate what they are learning to the real world. Stay involved. Be sure that your children are meeting their requirements. Know your child’s school, the principal and especially your child’s teachers. For children in grades one to four, it is important to let your children see you read, and set aside time each day for family reading. Read street signs. Ask your children to read to you while you prepare a meal. Get your children excited about reading by taking turns reading pages or acting out characters. Talk to your children about what they read. Ask them questions that require them to read between the lines and think about what they have just read. This will help improve their reading comprehension. Help your children get a library card and take weekly trips with them to the library. For middle school students, set up a daily homework routine. Designate a homework area away from distractions like the television and Internet, and with adequate lighting and supplies. When it is time for your children to do their homework, reinforce strong study habits by also doing yours: balance your chequebook, pay your bills or immerse yourself in a book. Let your children read comic books in their spare time because comics can encourage positive reading habits and can play a role in improving literacy. Help your children identify difficult and easy homework tasks and get them to tackle the most difficult subjects first. For secondary students, encourage them to take 20 minutes each night to

read over their notes from that day, or rewrite them using colours to highlight important information so they retain it longer. Encourage your teenagers to explore magazines and websites on subjects

Make time for books and reading with your child. It is also important to let your children see that you value reading materials.

that interest them to keep them reading. Keep an assignment calendar on the fridge for quick reference of due dates, exams and how they fit with other activities.

At the end of August, every parent counts down the days until life returns to its normal rhythms. Their kids, going into a new school or a new grade, harbour two thoughts: Who will be my teacher and will I like him or her? Blame George Bernard Shaw for the trepidation, although few of today’s students would recognize the name of the 1925 winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature. He is responsible for the favourite saying of school critics: “He who can, does. He who cannot, teaches.” Such an attitude from a childless man should be dismissed out of hand. He never packed a school lunch, never was the helper dad in Grade 1, and never watched his child struggle with the vagaries of the English language, over which he was a master. Yet Shaw’s words echo down to this day, and such attitudes show an abysmal lack of interest or an astounding ignorance about the role of schools in general and teachers in particular. Ask a chief executive, a politician, a famous person of any age who their greatest influences were, and likely as not, the answer will be a teacher. Who lit the spark of achievement and excellence? Who willed them to succeed? Right after parents will come a teacher. Today’s graduates are sometimes characterized as the worst educated in the history of western civilization. They don’t know the date of the Battle of Hastings, can’t remember Newton’s Laws of Motion, and they can’t spell without a computer spell-check program. Such statements about the abysmal state of our education system are rarely challenged. Yet they are dead wrong. Consider the plethora of tear-jerking films about teachers and the influence that one good teacher can have on a generation of young people. From the 1939 movie, Goodbye Mr. See TEACHERS Page 15

Chips starring Robert Donat as Charles Chipping, to the 1995 Mr. Holland’s Opus starring Richard Dreyfuss as Glenn Holland. Good teachers set our children on a path of personal achievement unhampered by the teacher’s own prejudices and influences; the very best release their students into a world of thinking and decision-making equipped to make

up their own minds, not parrot that of the teacher or parent. I say this in hindsight and having had such teachers. Anytime I feel moved to rant about bad teachers, I remember what Shaw failed to add to his arch observance that those who can, do and those who can’t, teach. He forgot the third sentence: those who can do neither, write about it. Catherine Ford is a columnist with Troy Media

The Dub coming to Mission Mission Minor Hockey to benefit from Saturday’s pre-season WHL contest BY

NEIL CORBETT

Mission Record

Western Hockey League pre-season action arrives in Mission on Saturday, as the Fraser Valley’s home team, the Chilliwack Bruins, host one of the league’s most storied franchises in the Kamloops Blazers. It’s good news for hockey fans in Mission, and great news for Mission Minor Hockey, which will host the event, and keep the gate proceeds. Bruins public relations man Jacob Bestebroer said fans should not underestimate the entertainment value of pre-season WHL hockey, as talented youngsters work hard to impress Major Junior coaches. What’s more, the two teams will play in Chase on Friday night, so there there will be

grudges outstanding and scores to settle. The Bruins are expected to be a handful this year. The franchise is coming off its best season, just a game under .500 last year. And they have four kids who have been drafted by NHL teams: Ryan Howse (Calgary Flames), Kevin Sundher (Buffalo Sabres), Dylen McKinlay (Minnesota Wild) and Tyler Stahl (Carolina Hurricanes). Howse was the team’s leading scorer last year with 47 goals and 72 points in 72 games, while Sunder was also dangerous with 25 goals and 61 points. McKinley is a Valley boy, from Langley, and scored 20 goals with his 43 points. Stahl is a rugged defenceman who had 146 penalty minutes. Game time is 7 p.m. at the Mission Leisure Centre.

The Mission Roadrunners are going south for an immersion in Southern California football culture. The varsity squad is ranked fourth provincially, the highest pre-season ranking enjoyed by the resurgent Roadrunners football program so far. This is partially due to the strong showing the junior varsity squad turned in last season. Under the leadership of head coach Danny Jakobs (who has now moved up to assist Kevin Watrin with the varsity team) the 1009 JV squad went undefeated only to lose in the provincial championship game. “It is nice to be considered among the AA football elite teams,” Watrin admits, “but it is early and we need to play some games to prove ourselves.” The Mission Roadrunners Varsity Team had strong showings in both the University of Washington and Big Kahuna seven-on-seven tournaments during the summer. The squad won the consolation side in both tournaments, which featured many outstanding teams from Washington State and B.C. A number of boys also turned some heads at both U.S. and Canadian camps this summer. Tanner Pearce earned a coveted spot on Team B.C., a provincial all-star team, and travelled to compete in Nova Scotia where Team B.C. finished third. He will be the starting quarterback for the Roadrunners. The varsity team is in California for a little sun and a lot of football from Aug. 31 to Sept. 5. The team will be practicing daily at a local

high school as well as attending a large “Friday Night Lights” high school game, and an NCAA football game featuring San Diego State University. They will be playing a game against a perennial powerhouse, St. Margaret’s Episcopal School, in San Juan Capistrano on Sept. 4. It should prove to be a tough preseason test for Watrin’s crew. Coaches Watrin, Jakobs along with former CFL and NFL player and lineman coach Larry Clarkson are looking forward to the opportunity to improve as a team and bond together. The varsity’s first home game is Sept. 10 at 3:45 p.m. against Holy Cross, a strong AAA team. The JV team will be led by coaches John Kapty, Glen Roberts, Mike Schneider and Ray Jung. After defeating the Windsor Dukes in the spring scrimmage and advancing to the provincial championship game last year, expectations are high for the Roadrunners. “We are excited about this season,” Kapty said, “and we plan to continue the JV success from the spring and last season. Although we have sent quite a few players to the varsity team, this group is hungry to prove themselves.” The JV team kicks off at Mission Secondary on Sept. 8 at 3:45 p.m. The grade eight team will be led by coaches Brent Thompson, Mike Miller, Darren Chezzi, and MSS graduate Nathan Reist. They look forward to returning to the provincial finals after earning a spot there in two out of the last three seasons.

Sockeye salmon have returned to their spawning grounds in numbers not seen since 1913. BLACK PRESS PHOTO

Huge run a credit to conservation efforts F

or everything there is a season, a time to be quiet and a time to speak. The last warm days of summer are heralded in farming communities as the time of the harvest. Here in British Columbia the harvest many look forward to is not a crop. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a species of fish, the pacific salmon and the chief of these salmon: the sockeye. This year we have the largest return of these prized fish since 1913 when railroads made the Fraser Riverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hellâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Gate impassable. The abundant return is a credit to the conservation efforts of all parties, both private and industrial based, working toward restoring these fish to Je historic levels. Will the abundance continue on in future years? It depends on the motivations of the user groups who share the waters and water sheds where these fish live. Will government policy cater to the greed of a few, or will it cater to the interest of all. I, for one, have the hope and confidence that just decisions will prevail.

Campfire ban lifted Campfires are now permitted throughout the Coastal Fire Centre due to a decreased risk of wildfires. The ban was dropped on Sept. 1. Although campfires, fireworks and Tiki torches are now permitted, open fires of any other description remain prohibited, including burning barrels. The rescinding of the campfire ban applies to all BC Parks, Crown and private lands and the District of Mission is also following suit. “People can have camp fires and fires in their backyard fire pits,” said Fire Chief Ian Fitzpatrick, who also continues to caution people to be careful around fires any time of the year. And if you’re using your backyard fire pit to cook or keep warm, remember to be respectful of your neighbours when it comes to smoke, he added. Campfires must not be larger than 0.5 meters wide or 0.5 meters tall. Anyone who lights a campfire must have a hand tool such as a shovel, or at least eight litres of water nearby to fully extinguish it. Never leave a campfire unattended, and make sure ashes are

completely cold to the touch before leaving the area. Should a wildfire occur as a result of recklessness, a person can be fined up to $1 million or spend three years in prison and be ordered to pay all firefighting and associated costs. To report a wildfire or unattended campfire call *5555 on your cell or tollfree 1-800-663-5555. For more information visit www.bcwildfire.ca.

Good things growing in community gardens At 7:30 this morning, I had a good look, despite the fenced enclosure, at the Soapbox Community Garden. Those aphid-fighting marigolds were the first

clue that the garden participants are dedicated to organic gardening. The entire area effectively demonstrates companion gardening, with gladiolus and even a few geraniums

sharing space with the veggies. The grassy areas provide that third space feeling – and certainly a tranquil spot at 7:30 a.m. This early morning trip was what we in Rotary

call a “make-up” event. Yes, I missed last week’s open house due to a scheduling conflict and have been trying to make amends since then. The District of Mission

has provided the land for the Garden for $1 per year since 1993. In that year the Mission Environmental Society founded the Mission Soapbox Community Organic Garden

and the Parks Department continues to lend support whenever possible. Community gardens are an important element of food security, and Mission citizens – local government and volunteers – need to do some catchup in this activity; we are falling behind community gardening efforts in other Canadian cities. For example, since 2005 Victoria has had a community gardens policy, which could be a good example for Mission to examine (www.victoria. ca). The Long-term Inmates Now in the Community Society (LINC) now operates the Soapbox Community Garden. Along with managing the garden and providing maintenance of the garden’s communal areas, LINC donates a portion of the vegetables grown in its plots to the local food bank and food centre. Sherry EdmundsFlett and Glen Flett are leading volunteer efforts at the garden, and this included the open house. Glen reported an attendance of 40 to 50 visitors, who also witnessed a dedication of the garden to the late Terry Cox, an “avid gardener” as the garden’s commemorative sign indicates, and former University of the Fraser Valley instructor. At the dedication ceremony, Sherry read from text provided by Terry’s friend, Catherine Nelson: “Working in his garden made time slow down and the mad worka-day world quiet... He found solace in the making of it... His legacy to the garden is about community, connecting and the human spirit.” For individuals and for the entire community, these gardens have innumerable and farreaching benefits. The Mission City Farmers Market does its part to encourage local gardening, and provides space at minimal cost to “back yard” fruit and vegetable vendors. Outdoor markets continue until September 25, and three indoor markets are scheduled from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at All Saints Hall on Second and James for Nov. 6, Jan. 29, and April 2. Vendors are advised to book early for spaces. Heather Stewart is a volunteer with the Mission City Farmers Market.

Reel on the River will begins its fourth season with an Argentinean thriller called The Secret in Their Eyes. The movie is in Spanish with English subtitles and it has already received rave reviews after it was released last year. It was the winner of the Best Foreign Language Film category at the Academy Awards. The Secret in their Eyes is about Benjamin Esposito who starts to write a novel about an unsolved case from his past after he retires. The case still haunts him and as he tries to come up with an ending, he makes a startling discovery. There are also two comedies being presented

this season, both from the U.S.A., a drama from Norway and a documentary from Canada, China and the U.K. A synopsis of each movie and when it is playing is listed below. Reel on the River aims to bring Canadian, foreign and independent films to Mission. “Choosing films is always the hardest part,” said Bev James, one of the founders of Reel on the River, now in its third season. “There are only four of us... but we all have personal biases.” There are many movies to choose from and so few showings each season. However, the four friends agree on trying to find something for everyone. “It’s not easy coming up with a cross-section,” said James. “There are a lot of good films.” Reel on the River is a local non-profit orga-

nization. Any leftover funds is donated to the Culture Kids Fund, giving disadvantaged children a chance to explore and experience the arts. The fund is administered by the Parks, Rec and Cultural department. All the films are provided by Film Circuit and the Toronto International Film Festival. A series pass for all five films is $35, and tickets at the door are $10 for each film. All screenings take place on Mondays at 7:30 p.m. at the SilverCity at the Junction. Series passes are on sale at Shoppers Drug Mart and Murdoch’s Book Shoppe in Mission and at The Reach in Abbotsford.

Newly retired from his career in Argentina’s criminal court, Benjamin Esposito begins writing a novel about a case from his past that continues to haunt him.

Get Low

Country: USA Language: English Rating: Folk Tale/Comedy, NR Date playing: Oct. 4, 2010 An audience favourite at the 2009 Toronto International Film Festival, American legend Robert Duvall returns to the screen in this poignant and surprisingly insightful folk tale about pain, guilt, loss and how it’s never too late to earn a little friendship and forgiveness. For 40 years Felix (Duvall) has lived as a hermit in the Tennessee backwoods until one day he walks into the local funeral parlour and announces to the undertaker that he is there to plan his own funeral. Based on a true story from the Depression era, Get Low has the feel of classic American westerns both old and new.

Last Train Home

Country: Canada/China/U.K. Language: Mandarin with English subtitles Rating: Documentary, PG Date playing: Oct. 18, 2010 An award-winner at several documentary festivals, Last Train Home tells the story of Chinese migrant factory workers who leave their rural homes in search of a better life for their children. Sixteen years ago the Zhangs abandoned their young children to find work in the city, consoled by the hope that their wages would lift their children into a better life. But in bitter irony, the Zhangs’ hopes for the future are undone by their very absence. This emotionally engaging debut film navigates through the stark and difficult choices of a society caught between old ways and new realities.

Max Manus

Country: Norway Language: Norwegian with English subtitles Rating: Drama, 14A Date playing: Nov. 1, 2010 Max Manus recounts the life of one of Europe’s most celebrated resistance fighters. Initially he volunteers to fight alongside the Finnish forces in their battle against Russia. Shortly afterwards, his beloved Norway is invaded by Nazi Germany and quickly occupied. Max Manus and his friends start a small rebel cell, committing sabotage and distributing leaflets denouncing the Nazi presence. Their group is captured and Manus escapes, later to be recruited by a resistance movement run out of London. This is Norway’s biggest domestic hit in more than a decade.

The Kids are All Right

Country: USA Language: English Rating: Comedy, 14A Date playing: Nov. 15, 2010 The Kids are All Right centres on the mid-life parenting crisis of a long-time lesbian couple (Annette Bening and Julianne Moore) whose lives are turned upside down when the anonymous “father” of their two teenage children unexpectedly enters their lives. The sperm donor “father” is a free-spirited bachelor who is happy to meet his offspring; however, one of the teenagers’ parents is not convinced this is a good idea. The new father is invited to their home. The result is a hilarious and generous portrait of the churning tensions within every family.

THE MISSION RECORD – THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 2, 2010

What’s Happening in Mission

ANGELS NEED OUR HELP Life sometimes seems like a battle, both in the small affairs of daily life as well as in the bigger, more significant ones. In the battle of good over evil, it doesn’t always seem like the good guys win. Maybe in the long run they do, but in the meantime, the good guys need all the help they can get. To make matters worse, the “bad guys” sometimes seem to have better marketing. Evil can look very attractive, while virtue and goodness look like the proverbial “homely stepchild” that nobody wants. We really do need to join the struggle and give the angels some help. Think of all the unresolved social evils in the world: hunger, poverty, war, illiteracy, and myriad forms of injustice. We should appeal to the “better angels of our nature” to help us in this struggle, as we should be ready and willing to help the angels as they fight the glorious fight. God wants and needs our help in this fight, and every good act that we do makes the world a better place. So put on God’s armor now! Then when the evil day comes, you will be able to resist the enemy’s attacks…

Finding bears in our neighbourhoods It’s a fact: bears live in our neighbourhoods. While we may enjoy the occasional glimpse from a safe distance, inviting bears into our backyards can create serious hazards, both for people and for bears. With a growing bear population and residential developments advancing further into bear habitat, it is everyone’s responsibility to make sure that bears and people stay at a safe distance from each other. One person’s bad habits can create problems for a whole neighbourhood. Bears that have become habituated to human smells and garbage are a hazard and are often destroyed. Help them out by

not luring them into close contact with humans. To avoid unwanted encounters with bears, store your garbage in a bear-resistant garbage container in a secure building. Do not put out your garbage and compost materials until the morning of collection. Pick up fallen fruit promptly and feed your pets indoors. Even bird feeders can attract a hungry bear, so remove them between April and November and stretch piano wire at least three metres off the ground to hang them in the winter. The smell of petroleum also attracts bears. Ensure that all rubber, tarpaper, paint, turpentine, kerosene and charcoal fluids are put away and keep barbeques clean. If you have a backyard composter, add only small amounts of fruit and vegetable scraps at a time and immediately mix

tice, most bears will leave the area to avoid conflict. If you do encounter a bear, stay calm and speak to it in a calm, firm voice to let him know you are a person. A mother with cubs may “bluff” charge at you, if she perceives you as a threat to her young, but will likely stop short of actual contact. If

seeping into your home. With increased costs for home heating, people are once again installing wood burning heaters and stoves. Wood burning can lead to a build-up of creosote on the chimney lining, and increase the threat of a chimney fire. The chimney should be cleaned at least annually by a qualified contractor, and may require more frequent cleaning based on your level of use. Carbon monoxide poisoning is a particular threat in energy efficient homes, because they are constructed to be airtight. Carbon monoxide detectors are a good idea, but it is also advisable to ensure that your bedroom windows are left slightly open for improved ventilation. Gas fireplaces, and gas or oil furnaces, should also be serviced and cleaned annually, to ensure that they are safe and operating at maximum efficiency. This will not only help ensure your safety, but will also help to reduce the cost of heating by using less fuel.
