Protest fails to sway votes STORIES BY JASON ROESSLE Mission Record

A hastily organized protest at municipal hall Monday night did nothing to sway councillors’ votes. Several members of the public were speaking against third reading to a zoning amendment bylaw for Fraser Valley Shopping Centres Ltd., as they fear it would pave the way to bring Wal-Mart to Mission. Council approved it unanimously. Smart Centres has not confirmed which business would be the anchor tenant in the 94,500 square foot building, but according to its website, its tenants include WalMart, Winners, Chapters, among others. The development would also see four smaller buildings on the site, ranging from 3,000 to 10,000 square feet. The entire site — situated between Mission Springs and Mission Autobody — is made up of four pieces of land totaling nine acres.

Dalton a recall target

Coun. Paul Horn spoke first, brushing aside concerns about the potential tenant by stating “If you don’t approve of a business, vote with your wallet,” and don’t shop there. He said a shopping centre is the best use for the land. It will bring jobs and be “an economic driver for the community.” Horn also refuted claims this type of development would hurt the downtown. Coun. Jenny Stevens next took the floor and said she understands some people are against the potential tenant but believes this will keep more people shopping in Mission and help staunch the $100 million flow of money out of this community from retail leakage. Mayor James Atebe said the area has been slated in the OCP as commercial for years, and that Mission is being “killed” by not providing what people want in terms of shopping experience.

The rookie politician is one of 18 Liberal MLAs being singled out for recall campaign BY PHIL MELNYCHUK Black Press

Forget about being named one of the top 25 MLAs targeted by Fight HST. MLA Marc Dalton never got on that list, but he’s part of a group that could be more deadly to his political career. Dalton is among 18 Liberal MLAs targeted in Fight HST’s SSurvivor-type strategy oof recalling provincial rreps. Fight HST leader Bill Vander Zalm announced V tthe strategy this week in what he calls the “MLA w Dalton Survivor Recall – Vote S them off the Island” campaign. Starting Nov. 15, and tackling one riding a month, Fight HST hopes to recall the Liberal MLAs and force byelections in those ridings. The campaign is in response to Premier Gordon Campbell’s recent announcement of a Sept. 24, 2011 referendum on the HST. The Fight HST group says that vote will not be binding on the government. Anti-HST organizer in Maple Ridge, Corisa Bell is confident she and her team can recall Dalton, who won

Motion pulled back An audible gasp of confusion was heard Monday in council chambers as Councillor Jenny Stevens withdrew a motion to rescind a motion impacting the Sturgeons on the Fraser

Meadowlands is moving closer to being approved after council gave the green light to second and third readings of the official community plan and zoning amending bylaws Monday night. Councillors Paul Horn and Danny Plecas voted against the readings mainly citing a desire to adhere to the current OCP. Horn stated he has “no doubt” about the plan, its esthetics or the people behind it, merely the area in which it is proposed. He added two things would have had to happen to sway his vote: a consensus with neighbours and that the project would have to abide by the current OCP. “This is not a question of a simple majority for me. I think the OCP is a promise to people,” he said. Plecas also acknowledged the visual attractiveness of the proposed 93-unit development, but noted he would rather see the site remain in keeping with the OCP. The rest of council disagreed. “This is the type of housing that’s needed in Mission,” said Coun. Heather Stewart as Meadowlands would be for residents 50 years and older. She was

Stevens said this would kill the project and made a motion to rescind it at the next meeting.

of a bylaw equal although they’re different under Robert’s Rules is what caused her to withdraw the motion. Meakin said Wednesday morning he’s still considering his position in Mission and would prefer to head to public hearing before committing the estimated $1.5 million needed to buy the land required. After last week’s district press release announcing it has no intention of purchasing the Meeker site, Meakin is still asking the receiver for a temporary use permit which would allow the project to continue.

also pleased with the attention paid to environmental values and the mix of housing types. “I’m going to support this because I think this community needs this type of development.” Coun. Jenny Stevens voted in favour of the readings because she also felt the development is in demand here, but did say she “would have been happier if it was in the Cedar Valley area.” Meadowlands would be located directly across Stave Lake Street from municipal hall, and the 20-acre site would offer housing for people 50 years and older in 57 strata lots, seven duplexes and two townhouse buildings with six units each, totaling 93 units. Ten area property owners are involved in the development and nine are subdividing the property on which they currently reside for the project. All plan to stay after Meadowlands in built. In June, developers presented the plan to more than 280 people at an information meeting at Hatzic secondary. A public hearing in late July saw those opposed stating it would be a beautiful development, but that the high-density housing did not fit in an area zoned for 0.88 acre rural lots. Those who spoke in favour appreciated the large community building, rain gardens and bike paths.

THE MISSION RECORD – THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 2010

A ‘heartwarming’ community event Celebration of Community and Illuminaria Lantern Festival a success by all accounts: organizers BY LORENE KEITCH Mission Record

Saturday’s Celebration of Community was a great success, according to organizers of the annual Mission event. “It went absolutely superbly,” said Marion Robinson, past chair of the Celebration of Community organizing team. “We were all frightened of the weather but the skies cleared up in time. Not only did the sun shine on the event but it shone on our hearts as well.” It is nearly impossible to do a head count at the annual event since it is a free event in a park and people come in from all directions to attend. So organizers usually look at the parking lots to assess how busy it is from one year to the next. And this year, said Robinson, the parking lots were full and the alleys leading up to the park too. She said that shows good community support for this fun festival and evidence that Missionites really do love to get together and celebrate what Mission means to locals. Every year the committee works to make the one-day event better than the year before, and Robinson feels that goal was certainly accomplished this year. Between the crowds of people that poured into Fraser River Heritage Park, the informative theme of agriculture, the new booths such as Experience the Fraser and the continued support of dozens of local service clubs, Robinson said they could not have asked for a better event. “The whole thing was heartwarming.” At the end of the afternoon, the Celebration of Community wrapped up and the Illuminaria Lantern Festival began. “It was brilliant,” Robinson recalled, describing the scene as approximately 2,000 people lit lanterns as dusk turned to darkness. The Celebration of Community commemorated its 10th annual event with the planting of the District of Mission’s forestry department’s four millionth tree, while the Illuminaria Lantern Festival marked 11 years last Saturday with an entertaining performance by Vancouver-based band Top City.

Who’s Who in Mission

presented by

New minister here • Rev. Bowman is the new minister at Mission’s St. Andrew’s United Church. • He started his new posting Aug. 1. • Bowman was born in Ontario, grew up in Calgary and went to seminary in Vancouver at the School of Theology. • He was sent for his internship to Newfoundland. Then, he likes to say he either did something right or did something wrong there, because they sent him back there for a three-year Tim Bowman term for his first placement as a reverend. • He says one thing people should know about him is that he’s not the scary, stuffy minister people often picture in their heads and likes to study how the Bible applies to our lives today.

Rural zones get attention The Record has featured 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, five per cent of offenders are repeat offenders which make

up the bulk of need for service, and 20 per cent of calls are the ones that fall through the cracks in a traditional policing model. Zone officers try to address this 20 per cent. This week’s spotlight is on Const. Fred Ritchie, Zone D.

It is a hard job patrolling an area that stretches from the Agassiz border all the way to Shook Road in Mission, but for Const. Fred Ritchie, it is a challenge he willingly accepts. Ritchie is the new face to the Zone D beat, starting just this month as the rural patrolling officer for the largest of Mission’s four zones. Ritchie has been with the RCMP for more than seven years and says this latest posting is right up his alley. “I enjoy rural policing, there’s a lot of good work that can be done in those areas,” he said in a recent phone interview. Zone constables operate a little differently than general duty officers, allowing more chances to connect with people in an area and hopefully prevent crime, Ritchie explained. “We don’t just react to calls, we’re trying to take a proactive approach to the problems in the area as opposed to just catching somebody in the act.” By having an officer focus in on a specific zone, he or she will hopefully be able to assess concerns before they arise and deal

more directly with a small portion of the population doing the majority of crimes. “In talking to the public, the better they get to know us, the more information they may give us,” Ritchie said. “We may be able to find out who’s actually causing the problems and work at it from that angle.” Approximately five years ago, RCMP Insp. Pat Walsh tested the theory of doing preventative work by putting an officer in charge of the downtown area, assigning him to patrol the neighbourhood and get to know the people. The concept was an overnight success. Since then, three other zones have been set up for patrols. Zone A covers from Wren Street west to the Maple Ridge border and north

to Burma Road. Zone B encompasses downtown up to Seventh Avenue. Zone C is mostly residential and covers the area north of Third Avenue to Richards Avenue, and from Nelson Street in the west to Shook Road in the east. In Zone D, which includes areas like Lake Errock, Deroche, Sylvester Road and Sumas Mountain beside Abbotsford, Ritchie says problems include theft, abandoned stolen vehicles, and residents concerned about traffic — especially the large work trucks that barrel down the narrow rural roads. Ritchie is still learning the ins and outs of zone policing instead of general duty policing, and says he is still working on how to best oversee the whole zone. He has spent the last month meeting with community leaders and he tries to get out and around the zone in his patrol car on a regular basis. So far, he says, the response in this zone has been positive though he admits there will always be some challenges. “Unfortunately because it is such a large area and I am one constable, not everybody’s going to get 100 per cent of what they want. But I’ll give them 100 per cent of what I can.”

Singing artist’s way of giving back BY LORENE KEITCH Mission Record

Rob Hess suffers from an incurable form of cancer called follicular, non-Hodgkins lymphoma diffused large B cell with bone marrow involvement. It’s a mouthful for sure. But Hess does not let the disease get him down. He instead stays focused on the positive and uses his time to perform at fundraising events to help good causes. For Hess, singing is a way to give back, acknowledging how expensive cancer treatments are and that Canadians have contributed to that cost of treatment. “It’s my way of paying back,” he said. And he loves the opportunity to help out at all types of events, not just for cancer research but for any worthy cause that comes along in need of support. Hess writes songs and performs country music as well as gospel and other favourites like the Righteous Brothers hits or the song You Raise Me Up, an inspirational song made famous by crooner Josh Groban. Hess says it is great to see people supporting cancer fundraisers such as local RCMP Const. Carl Wellwood biking in the Tour de Valley fundraiser, or participants

who turn out for the Terry Fox Run. “Cancer touches everyone’s life,” he commented. “Statistically, if it hasn’t already touched your life, it will. Helping out is a great way to feel like you’re doing your part.” Of the Terry Fox Run in particular, Hess says if Terry Fox had not started what he did 30 years ago, Hess would probably not bbe alive today. His aaunt faced the same ttype of cancer many yyears ago and it ttook her life. Now, tthanks to research, H Hess is able to take Hess aan antibody that is not a cure but helps to contain his cancerous cells. “Without the research, I would be gone.” He puts into perspective why people should donate money for cancer research. “It’s not a way to help the people with cancer now. You’re doing it for your children and your grandchildren.” He figures the research funded now will help cure the cancers the next generation faces, a thought he keeps in mind every time he looks at his daughter. Hess has gone through aggres-

sive chemotherapy and will have to undergo more down the road as well as transplants, but he is OK with that and copes by focusing on the positive. “You can’t do anything about the cancer — the cells do what the cells do,” he said. “So I prayed for grace. I’m not religious but I’m spiritual and I accept whatever comes my way.” And he tries to put his cancer into perspective as he lives with this disease. “Cancer’s a piece of cake compared to like Lou Gehrig’s or Parkinson’s — diseases that trap the mind in a body that no longer works,” Hess said. People who face medical issues like that are the real heroes. “They’re amazing. The resolution, the way they deal with it every day, and they’re trapped in a bed and they seem to be just so happy and beautiful. So I have really great champions.” It is obvious Hess is inspired by other people and he says people are what keeps him going on his down days. During chemotherapy treatments, his favourite days were when he got to go to the clinic and interact with other cancer patients. “They feed my spirit,” he said.

John Hebert, who ran Sunday from Mission to Chilliwack during the Terry Fox Run, lost three family members to cancer in the past and has raised $4,235 so far. This past Sunday’s local run saw 100 people show up and donations totaled $5,743, said organizer Craig Grant. BOB FRIESEN PHOTO

Pony up for a good cause BY LORENE KEITCH Mission Record

Don your cowboy duds and cap your crown with a Stetson hat for a westernthemed spaghetti fundraiser this Saturday. The funds will go towards the Heart of Mission Red Card program. According to Mission Community Services Society (MCSS), this program began as a way to help panhandlers. “Instead of worrying about giving them cash and having them go buy alcohol or drugs with it, you could say ‘If you’re hungry, take this card, go have something to eat, have a shower,’” explained MCSS’ Deana Moreau. “But it morphed into something much bigger for people on low income. At a $2 value, the card was worth well over $20.” When the Red Card program first began more than five years ago, it gave holders access to a wide range of products and services including a bus ticket, a bag of toiletries and a clothing voucher from the MCC Thrift Store. There was a free cup of coffee at the Bridge clubhouse,

a shower at the Friendship Centre, and a load of laundry at MCSS. But the big ticket item was a food voucher that came with the card. Community services covered the cost of the food voucher for each card. Unfortunately, said Moreau, it just got to be too much money for the non-profit agency to fund. They tried to recover costs by raising the price to $3 but it was not enough and they had to remove the

food voucher last year. At its peak there were approximately 100 to 120 people using the card on a monthly basis. Now with the food voucher gone, Moreau said there are less than a dozen people taking advantage of this program even though the value of the card is still “easily” $12. The goal of the spaghetti dinner fundraiser is to try and put some sort of food item back on the Red Card, Mission Coun.

Heather Stewart stated. Stewart, a member of the committee that oversees the program, said to put a food voucher back on the card they would need to raise approximately $20,000. “We don’t expect to get that at the dinner,” Stewart says. “But we’d like to get $5,000.” With $5,000, the committee hopes to at least include a coupon for a granola bar or piece of fruit. “We want to have some kind of snack available at the food centre,” she said, adding this would allow Mission’s homeless to connect with the centre’s homeless services. Stewart promises a fun evening complete with entertainment by local musician Rob Hess, a delicious dinner prepared by Chef Peter from Heritage Park school and his students and even a live auction. The spaghetti dinner takes place at St. Andrew’s Church hall on Grand Street, from 6:30 to 9 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 25. Tickets are $20, available at London Drugs, Mission Community Services, Murdoch’s Book Shoppe or the Gold Bin.

THE MISSION RECORD – THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 2010

OPINION

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

Best plan on Earth The decision to put B.C.’s still-fresh Harmonized Sales Tax to a vote next September means residents can expect another 12 months of back and forth. We get another year to cozy up with our new tax while the provincial government rolls out the list of consequences that await in case voters decide to end the relationship. The decision to make the HST’s future the subject of a referendum may show the BC Liberals have completely lost it or plan to execute the best public relations campaign on Earth. How else can one expect to garner more than 50 per cent of the vote in favour of a consumption tax that has angered so many people and impacted everything from school supplies to seniors’ care? Over the coming months, B.C. residents will get to discuss, debate and learn all about various forms of taxation and revenue generation policies until they’re blue in the face. The tax may be repealed, an agreement to refund the federal government’s $1.6-billion “sign-up bonus” may be crafted and the tax burden may be more equitably distributed. The entire saga may be remembered as one gigantic misunderstanding, a minor speed bump in the course of B.C.’s political history. At least that’s how any decent PR campaign would conclude. If the referendum question doesn’t ask voters how they feel about the process leading up to the HST’s implementation, residents of B.C. will be no better off. Given the $30 million tab to hold a referendum, we’ll be worse off and need more ways than ever of new ways to fill up provincial coffers. Voters will get a chance to speak on the underhanded manner in which the HST was thrust upon them in May 2013 — the date of the next provincial election. —Gulf Islands Driftwood

New Angus Reid opinion poll paints grim picture E

ven with a year to sell the harmonized sales tax to a disgruntled public, a wounded B.C. Liberal government looks to be going a bridge too far with its plan to put the tax to a referendum. Premier Gordon Campbell’s surprise decision to accept a simple majority vote in B.C.’s first-ever citizen initiative referendum makes it almost an impossible mission. Whatever the turnout, the notion that more than 50 per cent of voters will take the trouble to tick a box in favour of paying more taxes simply defies logic and history. A recent Angus Reid public opinion poll painted a grim picture of the current mood. It found that 68 per cent of people believed their personal budget was “moderately” or “severely” affected by the introduction of the HST on July 1. Mind you, 76 per cent of

those respondents thought taxes on basic groceries had gone up, 63 per cent thought their cellphone bills had gone up and 61 per cent believed adult clothing costs were up. The HST affects none of those things. It’s the information age. Nobody knows anything any more. Political polling numbers reflect the same misinformed anger. Every legally available government record To has been scoured for evidence that Campbell and Finance Minister Colin Hansen secretly planned the HST before last year’s election. None has been found. Their post-election decision to grab for the HST transition fund in a crumbling economy was hasty and clumsy,

but on the actual evidence, it wasn’t a lie. Some readers continue to heap scorn on me for pointing this out. I wish they could have seen Bill Vander Zalm’s latest performance, when he stomped out of the legislature committee meeting that chose the referendum route last week. Ranting for the TV cameras, Vander Zalm denounced the B.C. Liberal committee members m as liars too. What were their lies, one reporter asked. Vander Zalm could only sputter that Surrey-Tynehead MLA Dave Hayer had said he supported going to referendum because it’s a democratic choice. As for the NDP, it’s now even clearer that they’re just posturing against the HST

the way they did against the carbon tax. Their latest suggestion that Campbell should go cap in hand to the federal government, asking it to bail out B.C. by reversing the HST and forgiving the $1.6-billion transition fund, is a childish fantasy. NDP finance critic Bruce Ralston made another embarrassing admission last week. He and his colleagues collected signatures in support of Vander Zalm’s “HST Extinguishment Act,” without giving much thought to its demand that the tax be scrapped and every person in B.C. be paid back for their incremental sales tax costs. Ralston now admits it would be all but impossible to calculate, much less pay everyone’s refund. He suggested the refunds could be estimated for various income levels, and Ottawa could be SEE PREMIER PAGE 7

We, as part of the Mission Food Coalition, provide dinners for up to 80 people each Sunday. We have done so for over a decade. We rely on the generous donations of food and money from businesses, individuals and members of our church. We have five teams who alternate in donating their Sunday afternoons to prepare and serve food according to available resources. This year we applied to the Mission Community Foundation for financial help to enable us to carry on feeding the needy in our community. At this time of economic downturn, and consequent scarcity of resources, it was extremely magnanimous of the foundation to come to our aid and give us $1,000. With this kind of community support we can ensure that we can maintain this food service to the needy into the future where there will be no need for anyone in Mission to go hungry, as one of my homeless friends told me recently.

A fence would be required Editor, The Record: I agree with some of the comments made by Jeanette Smith in the Sept. 2 edition of The Record regarding Missionâ&#x20AC;&#x2DC;s suggestion for an off-leash dog park in Centennial Park. Come on! How many times do some shrubs and a number of signs ever manage to keep dogs in or out of anywhere? Wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t

a secure, durable (perhaps chain link) fence make more sense? A spring-loaded gate, opening inwards (to prevent clever dogs from nosing it open and careless owners from leaving it open) would also be a very good idea. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had senior dogs who had lost much of their ability to hear commands and it would have been wonderful to have a safe,

secure, fully fenced off-leash dog park for them to enjoy a bit of racing around and visiting with other dogs. Providing dogs with water, however, should always be the responsibility of the dog owner on any outing with their canine buddies as should the dog poop baggies carried in the pockets of all of us who pick up after

Combat weapons not needed Editor, The Record: The gun registry debate boils down to this: On the one side, the registry is understood to be a step towards curbing support for arms and militancy, and on the other, the registry is seen as interfering with benign activities like duck hunting. Firearm management is particularly difficult because our good neighbour to the south manufactures and distributes guns like bottled water â&#x20AC;&#x201D; including firearms that are not

appropriate for duck hunting or much else except combat. There is a real and pragmatic difference between a duck hunterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s shotgun and hand guns or automatic weapons. To sort out who has what kind of weapons where, the first thing to do is ask the public what they have. Interpreting the answer requires a database of â&#x20AC;&#x153;registeredâ&#x20AC;? firearms. Of course, such a registry does not solve the issue of the circulation of assault weapons but it is a step toward attempting

to distinguish between them and more benign firearms. We do not need combat weapons in the public domain. We can approach the problem in one of two ways. Either we proceed with facts or we act in ignorance and blindly hope we know truth from fiction. No gun registry means less facts and turns getting to the heart of the issue â&#x20AC;&#x201D; militancy and crime â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a more ignorant effort. Eugene Parks Victoria

Survivor strategy mocks recall process: Dalton From DALTON Page 1

Maple Ridge-Mission by only 68 votes — over NDP candidate Mike Bocking — in the 2009 election. “It’s going to be a lot of hard work, but we have a real strong team and we’re very dedicated and I know we will be successful,” said Bell.

“We’re going to work our hearts out.” Bell worked on the Maple Ridge campaign this spring to scrap the HST. With that as background, she’ll be asking for the voting list from the 2009 election and for the anti-HST petition sent into Elections B.C. this summer.

Currently, she has a team of 20 volunteers who’ve already met, but she’s expecting more to sign on. People are still angry about the new tax. “I firmly believe this is a way to make the rich, richer and the poor, poorer. I do not believe people are getting used to it.” Bell, who helps

run a family software business, said the HST is eating into businesses’ profits. “There are seniors starving right now because of this HST.” According to the Fight HST website, even though Premier Gordon Campbell promised to abide by the results of a referendum on the HST next September, he still can be overruled by the legislature, which could vote to keep the tax. That also leaves antiHST campaigners skeptical.

However, recall petitioners will have a tougher job than they did getting signatures from 10 per cent of registered voters for the initiative petition to scrap the HST. To recall an MLA and force a byelection, canvassers will have only 60 days to collect signatures from 40 per cent of the people on the 2009 voters’ list. Dalton, though, thinks the Survivor strategy is making a mockery out of the recall process. “It’s a serious thing.

Some local parents are upset with new busing fees which Mission Public Schools says are required to cover costs. “Funding from the government, generally speaking, and for transportation specifically, does not cover our transportation costs,” said school district secretary treasurer Roy Daykin. “There is a gap and, historically, the district was able to absorb that from other sources. “But because of funding challenges, it’s become more difficult and our board of education decided that all students who use transportation as opposed to those who are just courtesy riders previously will pay fees.” Courtesy riders are those who live within the district walk limits; four kilometres for students from kindergarten to Grade 7, and 4.8 kilometres for students from Grades 8 to 12. Last year, only students within designated walk limits paid while the others rode free. The uptake for busing this year is similar to past years, said Daykin, with approximately 1,050 elementary and secondary students utilizing the system. “It’s down a little bit

possibly, but it is comparable to previous years,” he said, attributing the small decrease more to declining enrolment than to the new fees. The new rule means a one-student family pays $200 per year to ride the bus. If two children from the same family ride the cost goes up to $320, and if there are three or more siblings it is capped at $400. Daykin said the new policy puts Mission more in line with other districts. Abbotsford charges $300 for each student who lives within the walk limit. This jumps to $500 for two siblings, and the school district charges $535 per student for attendance to a school of choice such as traditional, French immersion or integrated arts. Students who live outside the walk limits still ride the bus for free. Mission parent of three

Melinda Matlak is now faced with a $400 bill as her kids take the bus to and from school. While unhappy with the charges she registered her kids for the service last spring when it was announced because the district stated if a child did not have a bus pass the first day of school, they would not be getting on the bus. The family lives in Deroche so city transit is out of the question as is walking since she does not want her kids on the busy Lougheed highway. “But I just wanted to pay and get my kid registered because if I didn’t, my kids wouldn’t be picked up in September.” Daykin admitted there has been backlash to the new fees. “We have had some parents who are upset, obviously, because we’re moving from a system where they rode for free to one where they’re no

longer riding for free,” Daykin said. “But I think, generally speaking, once you spend a little bit of time with them, they’re respectful of the decisions that had to be made.” But Maria Hedderson, Mission Teachers’ Union president, said the changes have done more than just upset parents, they have resulted in a loss of a teacher. She said because both Chehalis and Seabird Island schools provide free busing and a hot lunch, some families opted to send their children there instead of paying to go to Deroche elementary. Chehalis school principal Bill Dietrich argued the reason his school is bringing in about 30 students from west of Chehalis is not because of the free busing but because of the small class sizes, the innovative programs and the very low adult to student ratio. Hedderson said some parents did not realize they could apply for reduced fees and opted instead to send their children elsewhere. The district provided an opportunity for parents who had financial difficulties. Daykin said parents could talk to their child’s principal who could then decide on a case-by-case basis if a family’s fees should be reduced.

New impaired penalties already catch local drivers BY TOM FLETCHER Black Press

Canada’s toughest penalties for impaired driving and excessive speeding took effect across B.C. on Monday. As of Sept. 20, police have the option of imposing an immediate penalty on anyone who fails a roadside breath test. Instead of issuing a 24-hour suspension, police will have the option to impose a 90-day driving ban, a $500 fine and impound the vehicle for 30 days. The fee for reinstating a suspended licence increased from $100 to $250, and drivers will also be billed $700 for towing and 30 days of vehicle impoundment. Failing a roadside test will also mean mandatory participation in B.C.’s “responsible driver program” at a cost of $1,420. The changes mean one failed roadside test could cost a driver $3,750 before driving again, and that is before any criminal code charges and suspensions that may also result. Local RCMP have found residents coming into the detachment lately to complain that now they cannot even have one drink. But Mission RCMP Sgt. Miriam Dickson stressed that the law itself has not changed since the 1970s. “It’s not a tougher law, it’s just tougher fines and enforcement penalties,” said Dickson. A blood alcohol reading in the “warn” range between 0.05 and 0.08 per cent will now result in a three-day driving ban, a $200 “administrative penalty” and another $250 fee to have a driver’s licence reinstated. Drivers will also have their car impounded for three days and be billed for towing and storage instead of the previous 24-hour suspension. A second test in the “warn” range within five years carries a seven-day suspension and possible vehicle impoundment, and penalties totaling $550. A third means the vehicle is impounded for 30 days, along with $650 in penalties and a mandatory responsible driver program and an alcoholsensing ignition interlock for a year. Dickson said RCMP found that of the drivers issued a 24-hour driving suspension, 40 per cent were caught reoffending. Local traffic enforcement officers were out

last weekend and, almost immediately after the new enforcement penalties came into effect, they had caught their first offender.

As for change at the local detachment, Dickson explained these new policies will make it easier for RCMP in terms of the amount of paper-

work. As the penalties are coming directly from the provincial level, everything from disputing a claim to sending off the driver’s licences is dealt

with through the motor vehicle branch instead of the local detachment. Dickson is sure these stricter rules will lead to a decrease in incidents of

drunk driving in Mission given the cost for drivers to get back on the road and the amount of time a driver will be suspended. She tells residents to

expect the traffic enforcement unit to be out in full force over the coming weeks. - With files from Lorene Keitch

Chambers meet at first valley biz summit BY GARY AHUJA Black Press

An unfair tax burden on businesses, regional transportation issues, mobile licensing for municipalities, restoring the business vote and development permit time lines were the topics of discussion at a recently held Fraser Valley Business Summit. Members of five different chambers of commerce were on hand Friday afternoon at the Coast Hotel and Convention Centre in Langley for the first annual summit. The presidents of the five respective chambers — Greater Langley, Abbotsford, Chilliwack, Mission and Maple Ridge/ Pitt Meadows — each spoke on a separate topic of concern to the business community, sharing their thoughts with the municipal and provincial politi-

cians on hand. Development permit time lines was discussed by Mission Regional Chamber of Commerce president Helen Secco. With no oversight from the provincial government, local governments have the chance to withhold approvals until the applicant agrees to take on costs that may or may not be related to the specific project application.

Variances from municipality to municipality cause confusion for the applicants. The result is additional costs and delays. B.C. and Quebec are the only provinces which do not have legislated mechanisms and protections which address these concerns. And in uncertain economic times, the provincial government needs to take action to ensure that the potential

for development opportunities and the rights of applicants are protected, she said. Abbotsford Chamber of Commerce president Pat Sapielak spoke on the ever-increasing tax burden faced by business owners. The crux of the presentation was the concern certain local governments were subsidizing residential taxpayers by unfairly

burdening businesses with property tax levies far in excess of the services they utilize. “While we appreciate the challenges faced by local governments with limited resources, raising those revenues by increasing costs to business is an unsustainable solution,” she said. While owning a home is the best investment, Sapielak said the downside is the property tax is based on the value of the property, not the business owners’ ability to pay. The solution is a cap on how much a business should have to pay in tax. Without that businesses will pay substantially more than a residential property owner and there becomes a risk of the businesses closing down or relocating. “We can’t afford to have our businesses leave our municipalities and

We can smooth out FINE LINES AND WRINKLES.

our province,” Sapielak said. Some of the recommendations included developing a more sustainable tax structure related to the taxpayers’ ability to pay and establishing some mechanism which would allow for the review of local government taxation to ensure accountability. Another presentation focused on copying a pilot project in the Okanagan-Similikameen area from 2008, which proved so successful, it has since been extended. Milt Kruger, the Greater Langley Chamber of Commerce president, shared an example of a plumbing company in Langley which needed a dozen licenses in order to work in the surrounding municipalities, since they were being called out to jobs outside of Langley and therefore were not licensed to work. Compare that to a business like Kruger’s, On Line Collision. Since

customers bring their vehicles to him, he only requires the one license. The results from that pilot project showed there was an increase of 750 to 1,000 licenses issued in the region. That translated into an increase of $160,000$200,000 in revenue for those municipalities in that one year alone. The project allowed businesses — contractors, trade businesses, photographers, caterers, etc. — to operate across participating boundaries with just a single license. This also benefited municipal governments as it lowered administrative costs to process one license and increased revenue due to more businesses deciding to acquire mobile licenses. The goal is to develop a mobile license program, first for the Fraser Valley, and then later on, for the entire province. - Read the full story at www.missioncityrecord. com under the Business section.

The Mission World Community Film Festival is back for another year, running at Heritage Park school Oct. 1-3. Featuring more than 30 documentaries, the three-day film fest is intended to bring issues to the forefront such as the plight of salmon, the power of community action, the ethics of oil and the loss of land. The films look at challenges in faraway lands and issues that directly affect Missionites. Organizer Elena Edwards says this event is intended to open up to the local community issues relevant to our lives which she hopes people will learn to care about and act upon. She was first inspired to bring the film festival to Mission last year after feeling frustrated at all the issues out there that so few people seem to know about. “This came up as the perfect

means to let people know what’s going on in their own communities and around the world and give them a chance to get involved,” Edwards said. She sees Mission as the ideal place to bring to light the issues that matter as this city grows beyond its rural roots. Besides the films, the festival also includes a community bazaar. Groups such as Amnesty International, the Wild Salmon Circle and Zero Waste Vancouver will be on hand to show people the activism happening locally and across the world. Edwards wants to see people connect with organizations and get involved instead of just watching the films and remaining passive to the problems she sees around us. Edwards herself has passionately taken on the cause of B.C.’s wild salmon, an issue near and dear to her heart which is why she organized the films and discussion groups for Oct. 1 with the theme In Praise of Wild Salmon. The Friday night event will include two films; the first is a documentary that follows a crusader as she seeks to save wild Pacific salmon, while the other explores

the problems caused by open net cage salmon farms. Guest speakers for the opening night include representatives from across B.C. all working to protect the river and the fish that live in them. Saturday’s flicks centre around the theme Anthology of Awakening, with films taking a look at crude oil flowing under the feet of a desperate people in Africa, a study of our culture’s addiction to violence and environmental exploitation, and a look at why we need to recognize our connection to ecology in literature and our lives, among others. Sunday’s series is titled “What’s Mined is Ours” and includes a film about a proposed mining project in B.C. and how a remote mountain village in Ecuador resisted a mining company’s encroachment on their land. For full details, schedules and film descriptions, see www.missionfilmfestival.ca or call 604-8265937. Weekend festival passes are available at Shopper’s Drug Mart in Mission as well as Murdoch’s Books. A weekend pass is $30/ adults and $15/students or those on low income. Day passes are also available at varying prices.

Telling the story. Oh, how we love to tell those tails. It has been a big part of fishing since time began. Endless volumes of literature, both hard and softcover, have been written on this subject. Many of us from the gray-haired crowd can recall our early days when warmed by a fire, we stared into the shadows of our imagination, as our mentors regaled us with tales of adventure. We listened intently Je as our personal prophets told of what was and could be ours, if we would take up our rods and believe. Today, a concern is often raised, that not enough young people are entering into or taking up our sport. Perhaps the fault is ours for not looking past ourselves, and not following the directive of those who taught us, to inspire adventure in a new generation.

The University of the Fraser Valley Cascades were beaten Saturday by the Trinity Western University Spartans, 3-0, in Langley. The Cascades CWUAA regular season record falls to 1-3-0 for three points and the Cascades have dropped three straight league games. The weekend game started out very exciting with the young, less experienced Cascades staying even with the more experienced Spartans. The majority of the first half was played in the middle of the park with both teams controlling play at different times. The Cascades did a great job in the first half of containing the fast outside wingers for TWU, every time they attempted to make a run down the wings, UFV’s defense was able

to contain them and prevent breakaways. In the second half the more experienced Spartans came out strong and put pressure on UFV’s defense. The pressure paid off as TWU opened the scoring at the 54 minute mark by Cardin Davis. The Cascades were able to composed themselves after the nine minute run by TWU and mount an attack on TWU’s defense but were unable to finish on several great shots, the best attempt was by Mission’s Josh Atebe whose header off a cross from Juan Pablo More Perea, also from Mission, hit the crossbar midway through the half. The Spartans were able to put the game away with two late goals at the 85th and 90th minutes of play.

Wear pink to Sunday’s game The Mission Icebreakers will be adding a lighter hue to their lines this fall to support the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation’s CIBC Run for the Cure. The Icebreakers, along with the Abbotsford Pilots, Aldergrove Kodiaks, Langley Chiefs and Abbotsford Heat, will sport pink skate laces and pink hockey tape as they take on their opponents for Pink Power Play nights in September and October, and invite their fans to wear pink as well. The Icebreakers host Pink Power Play night this

Sunday, Sept. 26. The Abbotsford-Fraser Valley Run Committee hopes that pink skate laces and stick tape on Fraser Valley’s hockey heroes will help raise awareness and run registrations for the Oct. 3 fundraising event. “It’s exciting to have so many teams in the Fraser Valley area support the breast cancer cause,” says Shelley Cameron, volunteer run codirector. In Abbotsford, the run starts at 10 a.m. at Concord Pacific Place.

Dream homes deserve a dream location The Alary family is welcoming potential residents to Missionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s newest and most prestigious developments called Oyama Estates on Saturday, Sept. 25. Located just south of the Sports Park and nestled along the tranquil banks of Silverdale Creek, this beautiful and unique development protects the environmentally sensitive corridor of the creek and celebrates Missionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sister city relationship with Oyama, Japan. The entire site is 69 acres, but 47 acres will be donated to the district and used as parkland. The remaining land will be used to create 22 lots at least .88 acres in size. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a beautiful piece of property and it needs to be preserved,â&#x20AC;? said Daren Alary, speaking on behalf of the Alary family. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We felt that the property needed to be kept in as close to its natural state as possible and the only way we could accomplish this was to minimize the amount of homes on the property and maintain as much foliage as possible.â&#x20AC;? The entrance to Oyama Estates will be graced with rows of Japanese cherry blossom trees and two big boulders, one on each side of the street. A plaque will be placed on each, one with â&#x20AC;&#x153;Oyama Estatesâ&#x20AC;?, and the other with Japanese characters meaning â&#x20AC;&#x153;Friendshipâ&#x20AC;?and a note explaining the two citiesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; relationship.

September 25, 3 pm to 6 pm Come explore Oyama Estates, everyone welcome!

0ZBNB 4USFFU t www.oyamaestates.ca The Alary family looks forward to meeting you.

This isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a cookie cutter subdivision. Each lot is unique because of the natural slopes, but the Japanese theme will remain throughout. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Most back onto greenspace and ravines that form part of the parkland that was donated,â&#x20AC;? said Daren. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I envision many people building homes with big decks overlooking the creek, sipping their coffee and listening to the babbling creek and the birds. With the parkland donation, nobody will ever build behind these homes. This will become a protected area.â&#x20AC;? The property has been in the Alary family since the 1970s. Darenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s father purchased it after falling in love with the creek and ravine that runs through it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My father thought the propertyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s location was good and the overall feel was extremely unique. He felt it was like a forest in the middle of town, yet so close to all the amenities.â&#x20AC;? The Alary family hopes you feel the same. They believe those purchasing these lots to build their dream home deserve a dream location too.

47 acres will be donated to the District as parkland.

Downie and The Grand Bounce Tragically Hip frontman builds on solo career with latest album BY NEIL CORBETT

concert at the Clarke Theatre. Doors open at

Black Press

7 p.m., show starts at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are

Gord Downie is on the phone from Toronto. In Pearson International Airport, just about to board a plane for Vancouver, the frontman for the Tragically Hip calls ahead to talk about his Saturday show in Mission. He is coming west to promote his latest solo project The Grand Bounce with his “other” band, the Country of Miracles. Mission is one of the smaller stops on the tour, joining Vancouver, Victoria and Vernon as the B.C. concerts. But fans who were at the Hip’s concert in Abbotsford last year know Downie doesn’t adjust his show for smaller audiences. Every time out, he brings it. “My idols are Howling Wolf and Johnny Cash and James Brown,” he said. “Use it up, and don’t save a thing for later.” After decades of putting on “howling” eclectic performances that don’t betray a trace of anxiety, he’ll still be nervous going onstage at the Clarke Theatre.

I like every gig. I feel like I’m the luckiest guy on Earth, but if someone said we were cancelled, I’d be relieved. – Gord Downie

“I like every gig. I feel like I’m the luckiest guy on Earth, but if someone said we were cancelled, I’d be relieved. “Expression is an important thing, and I don’t take it lightly.” He did two earlier solo projects, Coke Machine Glow in 2001, and Battle of the Nudes in 2003, both also with Country of Miracles. Seven years later, there’s another. He said he simply enjoys the process, keeping active, the company of his friends in the music business, and the work. “It’s restlessness, tirelessness, indefatigability... “For lack of education, it’s all I know how to do,” he said, although most PhDs don’t trot out words like “indefatigability” in casual conversation. Downie doesn’t like to compare his music now to what he has done in the past, or to his work with The Hip. He’ll leave that to the reviewers. And it’s tough music to classify. Rock radio stations have lots of time for The East Wind, the first single from The Grand Bounce. He and his Miracle band have played summer festivals at folk, country, rock and jazz shows. “And we didn’t entirely belong in any of them,” he said.

Laugh your face off Hold on to your hats! The Panic Squad comedy improv team is back in town, and once again, they’ve brought some friends. Panic Squad, an internationally touring comedy improv team based out of the Pacific Northwest, is helping Gallery 7 Theatre kick off their

Gord Downie played with the Tragically Hip in Abbotsford last summer. He returns to the valley this Saturday with a solo show at the Clarke Theatre in Mission. FILE PHOTO

He saw every kind of reaction, from “kids just loving it,” to “two index fingers planted firmly in two ears.” Some musicians, even rock gods, are content to play their classics, resting on their laurels and giving their audiences the music they love. Downie keeps producing, and his art keeps evolving, until he is a long way from New Orleans is Sinking. The change in his music, he says, is “glacial, but constant.” “It goes slowly, and it’s not stopping. I’m not driving that, it’s driving me.” He said he just tries to be a better person, and

“a better family member, first and foremost.” “I’m not changing for change’s sake. The changes [in music] are a reflection of changes in my life.” After the four B.C. shows, he will also play five cities in Alberta, Saskatoon, and finally Winnipeg on Oct. 7 before returning east. He will play 11 shows in just 16 days. Indefatigable indeed. Given an opportunity to say something to his Fraser Valley audience, he offers: “Come to the show. Check out the glacier.” Tickets for Saturday’s show at the Clarke Theatre are available through Ticketmaster.ca.

20th anniversary theatre season Sept. 24 with an evening of zany fun friends, family and even your grandma, can enjoy. “We love having the Panic Squad open our season each year,” exclaimed Ken Hildebrandt, Gallery 7 Theatre’s artistic director. “They’re a great bunch of guys, they’re extremely dedicated and professional, and they put on one hilarious show. Last season’s show was very

nearly sold-out.” The 90-minute Panic Squad & Friends show runs one night only on Friday, Sept. 24, at 7:30 p.m. at the MEI Theatre, 4081 Clearbrook Rd., Abbotsford. Tickets are $16/adults, $14/seniors and students, $13 for groups (10+) and $9 for children (12 and under) and can be purchased through the House of James at 2743 Emerson St., Abbotsford or by calling 604-852-3701.

THE MISSION RECORD â&#x20AC;&#x201C; THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 2010

Fall gala fundraiser The Opening Nite Theatre in Mission is hosting an Autumn Gala fundraiser Saturday, Oct. 2. The focus of this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gala is two-fold: firstly, to raise money for the rental of uniforms for the theatreâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s popular annual production of â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;To the Front and Backâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, a war time tribute to our soldiers then and now, written by local playwrights Camille Atebe and Rose Bennett. And secondly to re-vamp some of our antiquated production equipment. Camille Atebe, the chief cook and bottle washer of the theatre and local working actor herself, has just directed and acted in a local film production of one of her stage plays, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;A Quiet Apprehensionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; which was re-worked for the big screen and shot here in Mission this past summer. It is currently in the editing stage where it is being edited for the independent film festival circuit and also as a pilot for a regular weekly TV series centered in Mission. This is a vibrant and talented group of folks so come on out and meet us for â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;A Night at the Theatreâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, ONTS annual Autumn Gala.

EVERYDAY INCIVILITIES Although one can consider himself a kind and decent person, what others think of us is equally or more important than how we think of ourselves. Interestingly, other people can have a more accurate view of us than we do. Our self-image is partly comprised of how we see ourselves reflected in the eyes of others. People are mostly kind and decent, but may fall into incivility when they have to deal with particular people, problems or situations. Many of us may often fail to treat others with kindness and consideration in the simple everyday activities such as driving, shopping or running errands. In extreme cases, people may so dislike having to deal with the Motor Vehicle Bureau or the IRS for example that they are resigned to mistreating the employees who work there. Surely we should take a lesson from Jesus, who treated even tax collectorsâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;who were more despised in Jesusâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; day than our own â&#x20AC;&#x201C; with kindness and respect. And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sake hath forgiven you. K.J.V. Ephesians 4:32
