Gravel plans shown to public Upcoming public meetings into the APP held locally BY JESSICA PETERS Black Press
The public is being invited to long-awaited information sessions on the Aggregate Pilot Project, a plan for gravel removal which critics say has been created without
public input. The plan covers the Fraser Valley Regional District, and if successful could become a blueprint for gravel mining practices around the province. The plan has been in the works for six years, under the direction of the minister of state for mines, a position held by AbbotsfordMission MLA Randy Hawes since 2009. FVRD says the project is guided by a committee comprised from
representatives from the Aggregate Producers of B.C., the cities of Abbotsford and Chilliwack, the districts of Kent, Hope and Mission, the ministry of energy, mines and petroleum resources, and the FVRD. Critics rallied at Harrison Mills Community Hall in early August, which included speeches from Rafe Mair, NDP federal candidate Gwen O’Mahoney and FVRD director Wendy Bales, among others. Filmmaker Damien Gillis showed
an audience there what river-based gravel mining operations look like, in a pre-production film on the subject. Gillis has been on the river, filming gravel removal and interviewing key people, including former DFO officers and reps from the FVSS and Friends of the CRV. He screened some raw footage of gravel truck traffic jams on Little Big Bar, and pieces of the interviews to date. See APP Page 3

Tenant for shopping centre not confirmed Wal-Mart is one potential client for shopping centre development BY CAROL AUN Mission Record
Gravel mining is a contentious issue in the Fraser Valley and the new Aggregate Pilot Project is being unveiled to the public this month. BLACK PRESS PHOTO
APP meeting Oct. 7 From GRAVEL Page 1
“If we continue to do this, we’re gonna lose it and it will all be gone forever,” said Chris Gadsen, with the FVSS. Gadsen is a lifelong fisherman and staunch supporter of the river, organizing river clean ups and advocating for the environment throughout the years. He says the “science is not there” to support gravel removal. Gravel removal is part of the province’s flood protection plan. Currently, Gillis says, gravel removal operators have to apply for a temporary permit, while the APP is being developed. In the meantime, “temporary, full-on mining operations” are
being carried out on the river. In a letter to the editor later in August, Hawes said that critics are incorrect in saying the government has been meeting “behind closed doors for five years without any impact studies or public input.” He wrote that after several costly legal battles with the gravel industry “the FVAPP was formed to bring local government, the provincial government, and the aggregate industry together to find a way to ensure that future gravel operations would take place where there was common agreement.” He also said the Fraser Valley Aggregate Pilot Project committee has included the input from locally-elected representatives.
But Bales, one of the elected representatives Hawes was referring to, said at the rally she also feels there hasn’t been enough public process. She also urged citizens to attend the upcoming meetings. While the preliminary planning has been limited to talks among politicians and planners, FVRD announced this week that four separate public information meetings would be held in October. Meetings are to be held in Deroche (Oct. 7), Chilliwack (Oct. 14), Mission (Oct. 20) and Hope (Oct. 27). A copy of the APP recommendation report is available at the FVRD offices and at www. fvrd.bc.ca.
There is little doubt the next large development in Mission’s commercial retail scene will be a big box next to the Springs Restaurant. The developer has received support from its neighbours, some residents and the local business community, and has already been given third reading from Mission council to proceed with its building plans. SmartCentres has not disclosed the names of the stores its working with to anchor the new shopping mall, but regardless of which one takes it, some are hoping it will help address the retail leakage and keep shoppers in the community. There have been rumours speculating which store will be landing, but only the marketplace will determine what will go in there, said Mission Chamber of Commerce president Helen Secco. “It’s not up to us,” she added. “We want to see our residents and businesses shop local.” Secco also noted the developers have received support from the business community throughout the process, even without identifying the main tenant. “Development is good when it’s done properly,” she said. The proposal is to build 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 parcels of land totaling about nine acres. The area is zoned for a commercial development. A couple of councillors, Mike Scudder and Jenny Stevens, were initially hesitant to proceed with the application without knowing what the anchor store would be, but they both voted the process forward last week. Scudder is attending the Union of B.C. Municipalities conference this week and could not be reached for comment, however, Stevens explained developers can’t sign a tenant until the building has been approved. “I would’ve like to know ... but without knowing, we can’t judge what effect it will have on the community. Everyone is assuming it’s a Wal-Mart, but we haven’t been told that.” “I don’t see a difference between one box store or another,” said Coun. Paul Horn. “It’s not council’s business to determine which business goes in.” But one thing is certain, it will be a big box store. “We’re losing a huge amount of retail dollars,” added Stevens, who doesn’t believe a store like Wal-Mart will be competing with downtown merchants because the markets are different, with the exception of Fields. Wal-Mart is just one of the large stores SmartCentres work with. Others include, but are not limited to Winners, Old Navy, Michaels, Costco, Best Buy/Future Shop, and the Home Depot. Once the development is built, it will generate $800,000 in tax dollars for the district, which will help diversify the tax base. “It’s the right development in the right area,” said Stevens. Council will consider final approval of the project once all the outstanding issues have been addressed.
Alleged Red Scorpions associate sentenced to 15 months Two men charged after police seized drugs and Red Scorpions paraphernalia from a Mission home just over a year ago have had their day in court. Mohamed Amarhoun, 28, and Michael O’Brien, 30, were charged with possession for the purpose of trafficking. On Thursday in Abbotsford provincial court, Amarhoun was sen-
tenced to 15 months in jail, while O’Brien’s charges were stayed. Crown counsel does not reveal the reasons for staying charges. Police seized $3,000, ammunition, four ounces of cocaine and a Red Scorpions jacket Aug. 27, 2009 after executing a warrant at a house in the 8400 block of Doerksen Drive. The bust involved the Abbotsford Police drug squad, pro-
vincial emergency response team and Mission RCMP. Abbotsford Police were involved because it was believed drug lines in the city were being supplied from the home. An Information to Obtain (ITO) a search warrant showed that Amarhoun had links to Dennis Karbovanec, who pleaded guilty to killing three people in the Surrey Six slayings.
Open late
for all your
The ITO said it was Amarhoun that Karbovanec called when he was arrested in October 2008 by Abbotsford Police while wanted on a warrant out of Mission. Karbovanec was stopped by police while driving his GMC Yukon near Matsqui Trail Park, and wanted the vehicle released to an associate. A search of the SUV uncovered a loaded handgun and silencer stashed
in a hidden compartment in the vehicle. Amarhoun and another man, Jeffrey Harvey, arrived on the scene, but police decided to impound the vehicle. Karbovanec is now serving a life sentence. Four other men – Jamie Bacon, Cody Haevischer, Matt Johnson and Mike Le – are still awaiting trial on first-degree murder charges in the Surrey Six killings.

Books for Breakfast began eleven (11) years ago as an idea at a few schools. It has grown into a reality at all of our elementary schools and we, as educators and community members, have worked collaboratively to share ideas and strategies on how best to support young children in becoming lovers of language and books. It truly has been a “grass roots” project, borne from the idea that we truly can make a difference when we work together as a community to “raise readers” in Mission.

Conservation officers have received close to 380 calls from Mission residents about bears in their neighbourhood this year. They’re not just in the rural areas anymore; they’re venturing further into town, said Jennifer Meier, Mission’s environmental coordinator. Bears have been spotted around municipal hall and even Centennial park. Officials have created a map pinpointing the locations bears have been seen. There are some clusters, but the pins are across the district. Councillor Paul Horn, who lives in Silverdale, expects to see bears around this time of year as they are getting ready to hibernate, but even he notes they are coming out more than ever. “I’ve seen more than one bear,” said Horn, who started noticing their presence in May. “I go up and down Gunn Road regularly and the last eight times there, I’ve seen a bear seven times.”

Female bears and their babies hide in the greenbelt during the day and come out at night in search of food, said Horn. The creatures have knocked down his fence, pushed over his garbage and compost heap. There is a huge berry patch and a number of fruit trees at the back of his property and Horn is careful to clean up the fruit that has fallen to discourage bears from rummaging around his property. There used to be an anthill near the back of Horn’s property and he says the only good thing the bears have done is rip it apart. Horn is following advice from conservation officers and the district to help keep bears away from his home. He keeps the fence around his property in good repair, regardless of how many times he’s had to do it, he only puts vegetation in the compost and he keeps his garbage indoors until collection day. “The easier we make it for them, the more they’ll come in,” he said. The most important thing, says Horn, is not to “freak out.” If you see a bear around your home, go inside,” he advised. “He doesn’t want anything to do with you either.” People are overreacting when they take out their firearms because that’s when someone’s going to get hurt, he said. The councillor has heard his neighbours say they want to trap and relocate the bears, but conversation officers will only do that if it’s a mother with her cubs. “If you call a conversation officer, they will [likely] kill the bear.” About six bears have been put down by conservation officers this year — more than any other year. For more information about bears in your neighbourhood, visit www.bearaware.bc.ca. Tips around the home: Q Do not put out your garbage and compost materials until the morning of collection. Q Pick up fallen fruit promptly and feed your pets indoors. Bird feeders can attract a hungry bear, so remove them between April and November. Q Keep barbecues clean. Q Put only fruit and vegetable scraps in your backyard composter.

New e-mail policy will Parent input needed muzzle council: Stevens for internal review BY JASON ROESSLE Mission Record
A new council-approved policy restricting the type and tenor of e-mails between councillors and the public raised the ire of two local politicians. Couns. Jenny Stevens and Danny Plecas voted against the new document calling it a way to muzzle councillors. “I don’t want to be restricted,” Stevens voiced. She blatantly refused to follow the dictates of
tthe policy with the eexception of not ddiscussing in-cameera items, or those bbetween public hhearing and third rreading. Stevens The policy asks councillors to refrain from “opinions on projects, proposals or municipal business” in e-mails between each other and reminds politicians all e-mails are public correspondence. Mayor James Atebe said “com-
mon sense will guide us” and the document is in place to ensure councillors “can’t have a private conversation that the public can’t see.” Coun. Heather Stewart picked up on Atebe’s comments noting if online conversations aren’t limited “then we’re having in-camera discussions.” “If passed, council will be muzzled,” Stevens interjected, asking how having meetings over coffee or telephone conversations are any different. “It seems the only risk is the public finding out.”
The Treasure Hunt Starts Thursday September 30th
BY JASON ROESSLE Mission Record
Mission Public Schools wants parents’ opinions on any changes required to the student services department. Project manager, Randy Huth, also director of students services for MPSD, is undertaking the internal review alongside former long-time Mission administrator and teacher George Connolly. The parent consultation, scheduled for Oct. 6 at Heritage Park Secondary School from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m., is one of a handful of meetings going on throughout October. Also invited to targeted focus groups are elementary and
secondary teaching staff and education assistants. According to Huth, the review aims to ask what’s working well, the challenges that exist and what improvements can be made to helping local special needs students. Huth said the review will study and analyze the information gathered from the meetings, school visits and surveys (which are available at www.mpsd. ca). Following this, Connolly and the student services advisory committee will go through the data and make recommendations to the district and file a draft report for the January 2011 board of education meeting.
Oppal probes Pickton investigation Former B.C. Attorney-General Wally Oppal will head the Missing Women Commission of Inquiry to probe how police failed to catch serial killer Robert Pickton far sooner. The inquiry will focus on a five-year period starting Jan. 23, 1997 – when a woman escaped from the Port Coquitlam pig farm after nearly dying in a bloody knife fight with Pickton. He was arrested but released and several more women disappeared between then and his 2002 arrest.
Police investigations by the Vancouver Police Department and RCMP will be probed during that time, according to B.C. Attorney-General Mike De Jong, as well as prosecutors’ 1998 decision to drop attempted murder and assault charges against Pickton for the 1997 incident. A series of tips over the years pointed to Pickton as the potential serial killer suspected of preying on drug-addicted women in Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside.

THE MISSION RECORD – THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 2010
OPINION
Published and printed by Black Press Ltd. at Mission at 33047 First Ave., V2V 1G2
Socializing curtailed Cash? Check. Keys? Check. Cellphone? Check. A safe ride home? People heading out for a night on the town or dinner with friends will need to plan for transportation if they intend to imbibe. The government’s tougher drinking driving laws, which kicked in Monday, not only put the boots to drivers with blood alcohol readings over .08 but also take aim at those in the .05 to .08 range, who can lose their car for three days and face a $200 fine. Ouch. Yes, but these tougher laws are needed. Something has to be done to prevent the needless deaths of people like four-year old Alexa Middelaer, who was killed by a drunk driver in 2008. But are they enough? Will they work? And will they only affect the people who were likely to follow the old rules more than the scofflaws? Certainly, these rules will stop law-abiding citizens from having a second glass of wine at dinner. Many will just stay home to avoid the embarrassment of having their car impounded for blood-alcohol readings that are less than the legal limit. Who wants to take the chance? These individuals are likely to curtail their socializing rather than go out, because taking the bus at night is a hassle in the suburbs and cab fare is costly. More people staying at home is not necessarily a bad thing if it cuts down on needless deaths. But there are some who question whether these tougher laws will stop hard-core drunk drivers who have nothing to lose. Many already have multiple offences stacked up against them. In the meantime, socializing over a drink is about to go the way of the dinosaur, because the work involved in getting home makes dinner out the fun equivalent of a visit to the dentist. —Tri-City News

Politics dominate talks on the Peace River dam S
cientist-activist David Suzuki was billed as the keynote speaker at a recent rally at the B.C. legislature to oppose construction of Site C, a third hydroelectric dam on the Peace River. Suzuki did not appear, so I wasn’t able to determine how he would square his presumed opposition with his furious advocacy for greenhouse gas reduction. In April, his foundation responded to the B.C. government’s announcement that it would proceed to the environmental assessment stage on Site C with a series of recommendations. Those included further environmental assessment (now underway), a province-wide study of B.C.’s renewable energy plans and review of the social and cultural impacts on the Treaty 8 First Nations in the region. The Treaty 8 group, funded by Indian and Northern
Affairs Canada, participated in a 15-month study of the project. The rally marked their determination to reject it. Roland Willson, chief of the West Moberly First Nations, described a hidden agenda to develop the huge Horn River natural gas deposit in B.C.’s northeast corner. “They say it’s for 500,000 homes, but the day after they announced Site C, they announced a To power line going up to the Horn River,” Willson told the rally. “That gas is going to go to the Alberta tar sands and devastate the Alberta tar sands area and the First Nations people that live over there. “It’s going to go to dirty coal in our area. It’s going to go to California where they
need to turn on their air conditioning because they’re too lazy to open windows down there.” B.C. Green Party leader Jane Sterk agreed. “I think it’s about opening up the Horn River gas basin and the tar sands,” Sterk told me. “And secondly, it’s about trying to create the myth that we’re selling green power to the U.S.” The B.C. Green Party opposes all new hydro dem velopment. Sterk advocates wind and solar power, precisely the kind of intermittent sources Site C would facilitate by providing steady backup power. No one mentioned the planned gas pipeline and port facility to export liquefied gas from Kitimat, where it would displace dirtier fuels

in South Korea and elsewhere, or the proposed new gas processing plant near Dawson Creek that will burn gas to generate its power because there isn’t enough hydro power to supply it. Coal mines continue to be developed in northeastern B.C., and without hydro supplies available, they’ll buy it from dirtier sources. NDP energy critic John Horgan, on record for years as supporting the clear engineering case for Site C, received a warm welcome. He called for a scientific and economic, rather than emotional or political decision on the project. Treaty 8 regional chief Liz Logan warned of mercury in fish as a result of the dam. That’s the kind of claim seized upon by environmental campaigners such as the Wilderness Committee and

What’s the plan and how to get there? Editor, The Record: I live in Mission and have high hopes for the future of this community, but lately it seems we don’t have a road map to the future, evident in the way Mission council is conducting business in recent weeks. I read about the ongoing saga with the waterfront development in the Sturgeons on the Fraser proposal, where it seems there is strong support everywhere but within council. Then I read about the Smart Centres development that is rumored to be anchored by Wal-Mart — met by
grassroots opposition from Mission residents — but third reading of the proposal was unanimously approved by council. I read about the Meadowlands development that will provide housing for residents 50 years of age or older, it was approved by council for second and third reading, but it doesn’t align with the official community plan (OCP). Finally, in downtown Mission, I read about another cheque cashing store opening up. Now I don’t have enough information to know whether or not the Sturgeons development is fundamentally flawed, or if Wal-Mart is a
good thing for Mission. It’s just that it appears our council, who I believe are smart people invested in working for this community’s future, are making what seem to be ad-hoc decisions under pressure, blaming media and local organizers for making them look bad. Frankly, if it continues to look and feel like small town politics, then it probably is. If we have a plan that has a vision, that builds our future, then let’s see it, if not, then let’s help our council in focusing their energy there. If we have a thoughtful plan, then we make the work easier, decisions are made more simply and transpar-
ently by aligning with that plan. Stakeholders now spend time in the collaborative effort of developing a future plan, not trying to win an ad-hoc decision riddled with selfinterest. I see a Mission with a downtown core full of artisans, antiques, bookstores, boutiques — and fewer pawn shops. Why couldn’t we be that destination on “the scenic Hwy. 7 nestled on the banks of the Fraser River?” I see malls that aren’t strip developments that cast fluorescent glares over neighborhoods, rather they are developments where stores and res-
Local citizens not informed of plan Editor, The Record: Mission council has sunk to a new low by denying citizens the right to comment on whether or not they want a Wal-Mart on Lougheed near Wren. In addition to its very controversial business practices, WalMart’s forays into communities always provokes discussion and debate. Instead of allowing the public
to debate the Wal-Mart issue, a public hearing for Fraser Valley Shopping Centre was quietly held Aug. 30, a time when many citizens are on holiday and families are busy preparing for back to school. No mention was made that Wal-Mart would potentially be the anchor store to the centre in either the public hearing notice or the background staff report.
The report only stated that depending on which big box moves to the site, there could be impacts to our local businesses. Now that the opportunity for public comment is over, council finally admits the mystery store is likely Wal-Mart and unanimously passed third reading approval Sept. 20 claiming that the “majority of the community” wants it.
How can they know what the community wants when we were never informed of the plan? Clearly, Mission council’s desperation for development at any cost now includes deceptive tactics designed to deny citizens their right to an open, transparent, and democratic process. Tracy Lyster CAUSS
Tactics reminiscent of HST introduction Editor, The Record: I would like to join other Mission residents in expressing absolute dismay at Mission council’s recent decision that appears to have opened the way for Wal-Mart to move into our community. Frankly, the tactics feel so much like the sleazy way in which the HST was introduced provincially
by the Campbell government, that I can’t help but hope there is a similar backlash by the citizens of this community. I don’t blame the developer, as I am sure they followed the protocols; but it is very clear that there were no particular efforts made by council to assist community awareness of the possibilities of a tenant such as
Wal-Mart. It seems self-serving for council to suggest this will result in an increase in the community tax base, when historical evidence is irrefutable that the presence of Wal-Mart virtually always results in the closure of many other local business, all of which also pay taxes. And the presence of such a store virtu-
Good service still alive and well Editor, The Record: Customer service is still very much at the forefront of businesses in Mission. On Sunday afternoon at around 4:10 p.m. I found something lodged in my tire which caused it to go flat. I was lucky enough to get my van to the Esso station on Seventh Avenue and Hurd Street and used the air, but after noticing that it was still hissing asked inside if they could help me find a garage that was open. Immediately the gentleman working there came outside to see, offering support and the possibility that it could be fixed. But after investigation suggested taking my van to Mission Automotive just by Dairy Queen. We quickly looked up their number in the Yellow Pages but saw they closed at 4 p.m. Deciding that there would be nothing to lose, I called the number and Mani answered. After
explaining the problem he simply said, “Drive it over, we will fix it for you.” By the time I arrived it was nearly 4:20 p.m. I opened the door to find a man smiling at me, of course, Mani. He and his guys fixed the problem with smiles and the helpful reassurance that all would be okay. Customer service at its best is sometimes hard to find, but for Mani and his team at Mission Automotive they have excelled and created a new level of service. I hope there are more service managers like Mani in this town and that people living here remember to shout about them so we are all reminded that customer service is what makes the difference. In the meantime, thank you Mani, for helping me last Sunday. Debbie Powell Mission
ally spells the doom for existing community core business areas. Mission was a community with a centre. Increasingly, the council seems bent on turning Mission into yet more Fraser Valley sprawl, all of which is most effectively reached only by automobile. Don Chapman Mission
taurants are connected with pedestrian walkways, full of green spaces, beautifully illuminated, connected to the river, vibrant with life and colour. We could market ourselves by being home to farmers’ markets, world-class sport fishing, river adventure, waterfront boardwalks, high-end waterview housing developments, country estates, quaint affordable neighbourhoods, all bolstered by employment in small diversified industries. Where’s that plan and what are we doing today to get there? Lance MacDonald Mission
Politics the only item up for debate From POLITICS Page 6
Sierra Club of B.C., that helped organize this rally. It’s true that flooding vegetation promotes bacteria that bring naturally occurring mercury into the food chain. It’s also true this declines as the vegetation decays, as a 2008 study of whitefish and bull trout in the Peace River tends to confirm. It’s also true mercury occurs in fish all over the world, and in terms of actual mercury concentrations, Logan and others in the region should be more concerned about canned tuna purchased at grocery stores in Fort St. John. But you won’t hear much about climate change or science in this debate. It’s all about the politics.

This Plan is currently at 95% Completion. When completed, the Master Plan will deďŹ ne the capital program at the JAMES Plant (at an estimated cost of $294 million) for the next 25 years. Various infrastructure improvements at the JAMES Plant are required to meet the growth of the community. Asset renewals are also required to ensure the Plant maintains the current level of services. The infrastructure required by growth will be paid for by DCC and asset renewal items will be paid for by user fees. The Abbotsford / Mission Water and Sewer Commission will hold two Open Houses, from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m., on: • Wednesday, September 15, 2010, at the Abbotsford Exhibition Park, Ag-Rec Gallery, located at 32470 Haida Drive; and • Wednesday, October 6, 2010, at the Mission Leisure Centre (Multi Purpose Room 1), located at 7650 Grand Street The purpose of the Open Houses is to provide information on the development of the JAMES Plant Wastewater Master Plan and to gather feedback from the community. For more information, please contact Rob Isaac, Director of Wastewater and Asset Management, at 604-864-5514 or risaac@abbotsford.ca.

Marijuana activist Tim Felger has a new location in Mission for his store, which he concedes is “DaKine with a new name.� DaKine was his Abbotsford store, which he was forced to vacate after a rental dispute with his onetime business partner. The new location is in a second storey storefront at the corner of Horne and North Railway. He expects it to be open by the end of this week. He said the store will carry
convenience items, “munchies,� bongs and glassware, T-shirts and novelties. The name of the new store will be Dasbhang, which he explains combines the German word for “it’s� with the Punjabi word for “cannabis.� Felger said the new store will also be the site of his political office, as he plans to run for district council next year. So does his girlfriend and business partner. “Both Amanda [Deschamp] and I are planning on running for political office,� said Felger. He said they are motivated by
the district allowing commercial development which he says will take customers and investors away from the First Avenue business district. “[Mayor James] Atebe has set the stage for downtown to be gutted economically,� said Felger, who ran for the Mission mayor’s chair in 2005. Felger tried to open a store in another Mission location, but moved after numerous complaints about an alleged marijuana smell led to frequent visits from the RCMP and a search by a municipal safety inspector.
ICBC moves to pare optional rates again ICBC will cut its optional auto insurance premiums by an average of three per cent. The cut is in addition to a 2.4 per cent basic rate reduction approved by regulators. Both reductions take effect Nov. 1 and hand back a combined $80 million to customers, according to ICBC president and CEO Jon Schubert. He said ICBC optional premi-
ums have fallen 20 per cent over the past six years as a result of less frequent crashes. “Our customers’ smart driving decisions and our multi-million dollar investments in road safety and auto crime prevention have had a significant and positive impact,� Schubert said. Optional rates, where ICBC faces competition with private in-
surers, have come down much faster than basic premiums, where the Crown corporation holds a monopoly. The basic rate cut is the first in 10 years and still leaves the compulsory coverage costs well above 2005 levels due to rate hikes in 2006 and 2007. ICBC remains highly profitable and is being treated as a revenue source by the B.C. government.

CVMC celebrates 70 years Cedar Valley Mennonite is hosting a series of events in October
T
his fall Mission’s Cedar Valley Mennonite Church will be celebrating its 70th anniversary with three weeks of special events aimed at celebrating the present, honouring the past and excitedly anticipating the future. The celebration is one of the outcomes of the 20/20 visioning exercise the church undertook a year ago. At that time surveys were taken, focus group meetings held and the congregation consulted in a series of meetings. This fall new initiatives will be launched while still remembering the journey made by those who pioneered the church here. The first Sunday in October will feature a salute to all the things Cedar Valley is already doing as a church community. There will be a lunch after church and displays from every ministry group represented by members of the congregation. There are approximately 70 groups and activities associated with the church right now. On Oct. 9 there will be an old-fashioned tea and hymn-sing, starting at 2 p.m. The second Sunday in October (Oct. 10) will be a Home Coming Sunday. That’s the Thanksgiving weekend so anyone who has ever been associated with CVMC can travel to Mission for worship and fellowship. The day will start with a pancake breakfast before the 9 a.m. service. Special speakers and musicians connected with CVMC’s past will honour what God has accomplished in the 70 years that CVMC has served Mission. The morning service starts at 10:15 a.m. Events on Oct. 17

CVMC history Following the destruction of the First World War, the cruelty of the Depression and a new war raging throughout Europe
pacifist refugees, who followed the teachings of 16th century reformer Menno Simons, these outcasts made their way to the safe haven of Canada and the Fraser Valley. By 1940 a dozen German-speaking families, isolated by reliance on an “enemy” language and a religious belief that they should be set aside from the politics of the world, banded together to form a Mennonite church in the rural Ferndale area north of Mission City. The United Mennonite Church met in a small one-room
building on Ferndale Road, on the property of the first pastor, Rev. Abram J. Pankratz. The congregation grew and by 1951 built a new building on Cedar Valley Road. The new church was built with volunteer labour and no debt. Until the sanctuary was completed in 1953 all activities took place in the church basement. The name was changed to Cedar Valley Mennonite Church to reflect the building’s new location. Pastor Ed Goerzen began serving the congregation in 1965 as its first paid clergy and gradually shifted from a German to English-language ministry, for the first time opening the way for non-German-speaking people to become part of the church. The church thrived with its new outreach and by 1975 a new 700-seat sanctuary was completed. Today CVMC church has three full-time pastors: a lead, youth and a family ministry pastor. Church members volunteer in dozens of activities throughout the community and the church facility is used for many church ministries as well as for local and international projects. The church is located at 32840 Janzen Ave. Call 604-826-2445 for more information.

More ammo for light rail service through Valley Report argues new line can be started for $492 million BY JEFF NAGEL Black Press
A new Chilliwack-to-Surrey light rail line could whisk passengers from deep in the Fraser Valley to the existing SkyTrain system in 90 minutes, according to a new study commissioned by groups campaigning for the project. The report, by U.K.-based consultant David Cockle on behalf of Rail For The Valley, estimates an initial service running every 20 to 30 minutes on existing tracks could be launched with diesel-electric trains for $492 million. It could be later upgraded to a no-emission electric system for a further $115 million. Cockle called the proposal “very viable” with trains running 80 to 100 km/h between 18 stops along the 98-kilometre route. The line would fulfill a long-held dream to reinstate a modern version of the B.C. Electric interurban rail service to Chilliwack that was shut down 60 years ago. “When the Fraser Valley passenger service was suspended in 1950 there were less than 80,000 people living throughout the Valley,” Cockle said. “Today, one million people live in Valley communities, with 1.5 million projected by 2031.” Rail For The Valley spokesman John Vissers said concerns about air quality, climate change and rising gas prices are fuelling demand for an alternative to driving long distances. “We can now prove from an engineering and marketing perspective that you can run light rail at speeds comparable to driving your car from community to community across the Fraser Valley,” Vissers said. “We want our train back.” Neither the province nor TransLink has so far shown much interest in using the historic corridor, both in the past citing concerns transit service could See AREA Page 12

Area mayors lobbying for light rail over SkyTrain From MORE Page 11
interfere with freight hauling and that other potential rapid transit routes in the Valley might serve
more people. Advocates like Vissers note the price tag is a big advantage compared to building all-new tracks – especially when stacked against pricier SkyTrain
technology. The study estimates the cost of a phase one startup at just $5 million per kilometre, compared to the almost $130 million per kilometre it will cost
to build the $1.4-billion 11-kilometre Evergreen Line to Coquitlam. They also argue the province’s retention of free passenger rights on the corridor ensures railways cannot simply deny the dream out of concern they might make less money due to slowed freight service. “BC Hydro wisely retained the rights to passenger service and now we have an opportunity to capitalize on that,” Vissers said. The proposed route includes 10 main stations and eight more basic tram stops. The study also contemplates possible spurs connecting Chilliwack to Rosedale as well as Surrey to Richmond and
potentially on to Vancouver. Passing loops would allow freight and passenger trains to pass, but Cockle’s study assumes most freight trains would be required to run at night only. “You don’t have to do any major track reconstruction,” Rail For the Valley researcher Malcolm Johnston said. He said there’s potential to use tram-trains that could operate on both the existing rail corridor through the valley plus possible new tram routes within local cities. That would open up the potential for the same rail cars to turn off and head along King George Boulevard in Surrey someday, or up 200

Street from Langley to Maple Ridge. “It’s do-able,” Johnston said. “It just takes political will.” Advocates will plead their case with local cities, TransLink and provincial government officials in the weeks ahead. Meanwhile, the provincial government continues to keep the lid on the results of its own long-promised strategic review of Fraser Valley transit expansion options, including the existing rail corridor. A transportation ministry spokesman said the findings could be released this fall. Several area mayors are lobbying for light rail rather than SkyTrain technology for any rapid
transit extension through Surrey to ensure a broader reach of the service.

THE MISSION RECORD – THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 2010
Contentious advisers dropped BY JEFF NAGEL Black Press
A controversial panel of scientific advisers will no longer guide the Cohen Commission as it begins detailed hearings this fall into the decline of Fraser River sockeye salmon. Critics including Conservative MP John Cummins (Richmond-Delta East) had lambasted the six-member panel as stacked with experts closely tied to the federal fisheries department. He said they were inappropriately positioned to exert influence on the commission from the sidelines, when they should be called to testify about their own roles in helping manage the fishery. The commission headed by retired Justice Bruce Cohen has now scrapped the panel and instead contracted researchers to prepare a series of 12 scientific reports that will be subject to a process of peer review. Commission counsel Brian Wallace said the panel is no longer required even though its members “performed their advisory role in a completely independent, professional manner in the best interest of the commission.� The projects include research into the effects of: disease and parasites; predators; climate change; contaminants from pulp mills, sewage and other sources; salm-
on farms; changes in marine ecology; and human impacts on habitat in the lower Fraser and Strait of Georgia. Researchers were picked based on their professional and academic credentials and their experience and expertise with Fraser sockeye or ecosystems, Wallace said. Their findings will be presented at inquiry hearings this winter, where they can be questioned. Final reports are due Jan. 31. Cummins, however, is not satisfied with the change, noting some
researchers chosen are again proving to be ones with extensive links to DFO that may not be best at ferreting out the truth, particularly if it makes the department look bad. He points to the hiring of Bert Ionson, a former DFO media spokesman and aboriginal fisheries manager, to examine DFO’s science and management activities related to Fraser sockeye. Cummins questions the choice because of Ionson’s long working relationship with the department.

“It is akin to giving the fox a contract to explain the management and disappearance of the chickens,� he said. “I don’t understand what it is about conflict that Cohen doesn’t get.� Cummins also accuses the commission of deviating too far from its terms of reference by organizing a “scientific show-and-tell by DFO toadies� when it is supposed to focus more on the department’s management. Evidentiary hearings begin Oct. 25 at the Vancouver federal courthouse.

THE MISSION RECORD – THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 2010
Dinner tickets available
Stream clean-up sheds d’Herbomez of garbage Local volunteers came out last Saturday morning and helped remove hundreds of pounds of garbage from a Mission creek. The annual Adopt-A-Block stream clean-up happened at d’Herbomez Creek and members of the society as well as those from SAINTS and Rotary attended and pulled out enough old car seats, metal scraps and assorted trash to
fill a pick-up truck. According to Laura Cameron, AdoptA-Block coordinator, an integral piece to completing the work was a $750 grant from Van City Credit Union. The money went to cover costs such as buying waders for clean-ups, purchasing gloves, garbage bags and paying for a driver to haul the trash away, she said.

Businesses support 4-H BY LORENE KEITCH Mission Record
The Mission 4-H Club wrapped up another successful season recently with its final show at Vancouver’s PNE. For the 17 members of the beef club, the 4-H season begins with buying a steer and raising it to be market-ready. Club members attend three different shows to present their animals for judging, said Christine Poss, a mother to two 4-H beef club members and a former 4-H member herself. By the time the PNE opens, the steers must be ready to sell at a live auction. The cows are sold “on the hoof,” explained Poss, which means they are sold by the pound for the entire animal instead of by the cut of meat. This policy leads to more expensive purchases for buyers since they have to buy parts of the steer they will not use such as the brain and hooves. And through the years since Poss was in 4-H herself, she finds it is harder and harder to find buyers. “Because of tightened up food control, a lot of the larger companies that used to buy steers don’t anymore,” she said. However, she is proud of the fact that
businesses in Mission step up every year to support the local 4-H club by coming to the auction and buying a steer or two. Despite the increased food regulations, there are still companies willing to spend good money on a quality steer, she commented. Mission 4-H beef club leader Dean Spady told The Record that part of the club member’s job in raising a steer is to find a buyer. He says between his own four children, they probably collectively send out 30 letters and go to at least as many businesses to promote the auction and encourage buyers to come bid on a steer. He, too, sees great support in the community for this small but thriving club. “The support here is great,” he said. “Anybody can buy a steer but it takes two people to make a sale and that’s what we teach our kids — to market themselves and their steer.” Poss loves what the 4-H club has taught her children and is glad her two sons are following in her 4-H footsteps. “It’s a community within itself and it’s very family oriented,” she said. “It teaches morals, values, learning how to win and how to lose graciously, and it keeps them off the streets in the summer.”

Icebreakers snag first win of the season BY JASON ROESSLE Mission Record
It was an up and down weekend for the local junior B hockey squad as the Mission Icebreakers won their first game of the season Saturday, then dropped a contest the next afternoon. Head coach Craig Sherbaty was understandably pleased with his squad’s performance against the Squamish Wolf Pack. “The guys played great from the net out,” he said. The Icebreakers set the tone early with two unanswered goals in the first period, followed by a see-saw battle in the second. Sherbaty said the local team hung it out there again in the third and controlled the pace of the period, ending with a 5-3 win. “That’s how the boys should have played,” he noted. “It was a very convincing win.” A trio of injured players is hindering the Icebreakers, Sherbaty admitted, stating the team was “going to be a little
short” for the next stretch until they’re back to full strength. The Saturday game didn’t see the Mission bus roll back into town until 11 p.m. which definitely had an effect on the Sunday afternoon home game against the top-ranked North Delta Devils. “We battled hard for two periods,” he explained, but exhaustion caught up and wound up handing the Icebreakers the loss, putting their season record at 1-6. The team is working on foundations and the players are working to memorize the set plays established by the coaching staff, said Sherbaty. A couple of new players — forward Chris Kaplanchuk and goalie Lukas Simpson — are coming to Mission from the Interior and Sherbaty is excited to add them to the roster. The Icebreakers lost to the Delta Icehawks Tuesday, 3-4 and play again Oct. 2 and then again at home Sunday, Oct. 3 versus the Delta Icehawks.
Mission’s Keagan Hunter handles the puck after a face-off win on Sunday afternoon in the home game against the North Delta Devils. The Icebreakers lost the match, 7-3. The Mission Icebreakers are going to be skating with the public tonight (Sept. 30) between 6:30 and 8 p.m. Come down and meet the players. BOB FRIESEN PHOTO

Niners teams win one, lose two at home The Mission Niners football teams played a series of games Saturday at home, showcasing the local squads gridiron prowess. The midget level players saw the Niners face off against the Richmond Black during the sunny, warm day at Heritage Park Secondary School. No score was kept for this game. In the bantam division, the Meadow Ridge Knights came to Mission and took victory away from the local team, 16-8. The back and forth action in the junior bantam game made for exciting watching as the Niners went on to beat Meadow Ridge 40-36 after an incredible effort from Bryce Fillion, who scored six touchdowns for 355 yards, including a 65-yard kickoff return for six points. The defence held its own and controlled the field well in the fourth quarter. The Niners atoms also faced the Meadow Ridge team and lost 34-13.

THE MISSION RECORD – THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 2010
Opening night gala theme is wild salmon Wild Salmon is the theme for the Oct. 1 event and features Dr. Alexandra Morton, Rex Weyler and Chief Marilyn Baptiste issuing a shared statement. She has also helped organize a trip down the Fraser River called Paddle for Wild Salmon. Twelve voyageur canoes will travel from Hope to Vancouver Oct. 20-25, with a stop in Mission scheduled near the Mission Bridge Oct. 21. The event was spawned after a successful paddle trip last May that went from Hope to Victoria to protest salmon feedlots in the ocean. To keep the momentum going, Edwards decided there needed to be another event to send the message out that wild salmon need to be protected. She and more than 100 paddlers will make the Hope to Vancouver journey with a final stop at the Cohen Commission Oct. 25 in Vancouver.

Mission’s Elena Edwards is not just passionate about Pacific wild salmon — she is determined to save what she sees as a vital part of this province. “For me the salmon tie into so many things. Anyone who’s fighting for forest preservation, for clean water, for the health of our oceans, for habitat protection — all of these things tie into the salmon,” she said. “The salmon really are an iconic symbol for B.C.” She loves that salmon are a wild and free food source and stated, “We need to do everything we can to preserve that.” In light of her passion, Edwards organized films and discussion at this weekend’s World Community Film Festival on the iconic fish for the Friday night opening gala. In Praise of
While this year had an historic run of 34 million salmon, Edwards stated that does not mean concerns can now be cast aside. “The bottom line is that the same techniques and methods that were used to estimate the shocking run of 2009 were the same ones used to guess this run, and it was way off both times,” she said. For full details, schedules and film descriptions, see www.missionfilmfestival.ca or call 604-826-5937. 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.

I
t was a long way from The Hip. It probably wasn’t even hip. But Gord Downie apparently continued a love affair with his fans in Mission on Saturday night, with the band The Country of Miracles.” Judging by the middle agedness of the crowd, it’s been a long tryst. In the comparatively intimate setting of the Clarke Theatre, the audience could make comments and the musician best known as the front man for the Tragically Hip
would respond. “Gord! You rock buddy!” yelled one woman. “I’m tryin’ sister,” he answered. “Gord you’re an (expletive) genius,” declared one appreciative member of the crowd. He was apparently misquoting from Downie being called a “totally sweet genius” in the national press during recent reviews of the album he is promoting, The Grand Bounce, which is his third solo effort with Country of Miracles. He got his growl on for a few songs, but this was mostly an understated Gord Downie, with
plain black shirt and jeans. In the close confines of the Clarke, the audience didn’t need a big-screen backdrop, like The Hip had at Abbotsford Entertainment and Sports Centre last summer, to see beads of sweat running off his face and tendons standing out along his neck. In fact, the backdrop was from a projector Downie had on stage, and he would create images using colour films, graphics like apples on a string, and constellations of stars. “Doing his crafts,” is how one nearby audience member described the eccentric Canadian icon’s patient and precise construction of
these scenes. After doing one, he might pause to unscrew the lid of a Thermos, and have a drink of something that was probably wholesome. Then it was into the next song. That’s what they came for, and Downie’s devotees were apparently not disappointed. When he left after the second set, the audience members got up out of their seats, moving toward the stage, and pounding on it until Downie eventually came out and played a three-song encore. Then he left them, on the line “Insomniacs of the world, goodnight.”

directed and acted in a local film production of one of her stage plays, A Quiet Apprehension which was reworked for the big screen and shot in Mission this past summer. It is currently in the editing stage where it is being edited for the independent film festival circuit and

As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you; abide in my love. If you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s commandments and abide in His love. These things I have spoken to you, that your joy may be full (John 15:9-11). These encouraging verses from the Holy Bible should be beneficial in helping us build a deeper relationship with God, and allow us to stay in His love. At times, the daily happenings of our busy world may cause us to forget about God’s love, and this may cause us to separate ourselves from Him. Having a good prayer life and asking God for His help in everything we do will strengthen our relationship with Him. We should try to recognize all of the daily blessings that come our way, and also accept any disappointments without grumbling or complaining. Problems, or even disasters, should be a means to help us grow in God’s love, we abide in Him and our joy may be full. If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask whatever you will, and it shall be done for you. R.S.V. John 15:7

Fire and Life Safety Fair now moved to Sunday afternoon M
ission Fire/Rescue Service is celebrating Fire Prevention Week with a variety of activities at its annual Fire and Life Safety Fair. The popular event has moved from the regular Tuesday night event to being held on Sunday afternoon, Oct. 3. It runs from 2 to 4 p.m. at fire station one, located at 33330 Seventh Ave. “We’re pretty excited about changing it to a Sunday,” said Assistant Chief Larry Watkinson. “It will be a fun day learning about fire safety.” In surveys conducted after last year’s event, a common complaint was the lateness of the event on Tuesdays. Some parents would forfeit attending because it was too dark to comfortably head down to the fire hall, said Watkinson. Besides the regular assortment of fire apparatus, representatives from other local emergency services — such as BC Ambulance Service, RCMP, Mission Search and Rescue — will be on hand to show off their skills and abilities.

The Fire Safety House is returning to Mission for the annual fair. SUBMITTED PHOTO
Following are some of the highlights of this fun family activity: Fire Safety House The Fire Safety House is an educational vehicle designed to teach school age children fire safety in the home. The house is a scaled-down replica of a typical house and is equipped with a smoke alarm, artificial smoke machine, and strobe lights to simulate a real fire. Firefighters are able to show children how to escape from a burning house by either exiting through windows or crawling on the floor. Children are given the opportunity to practise escape methods under the observation of

firefighters. After many volunteer hours generously donated by local firefighters and donations from Mission businesses, the house was completed in 1993 and has been used extensively to teach fire safety to children throughout the district. In recent years the house was donated to Harrison Fire Department which in turn, has loaned it back to Mission for this year’s fair. Rollover simulator The RCMP is bringing its rollover simulator to this year’s event to showcase the importance of wearing a seatbelt. (See story next page) Games for kids Interactive games and fun activities will be set up, including fire safety bingo, a junior firefighter challenge and a spot to practice dialing 911.

The veteran RCMP officer is an accident reconstructionist and has worked in the traffic section for the past decade, seeing his fair share of incidents. Despite the years of messaging to wear a seatbelt, Hilliard says some continue to ignore the warnings. Admittedly, there have been rare occurrences where Hilliard has seen not wearing the belt has saved a life, but the overwhelming majority of cases point to the benefits of the exercise.

The RCMP’s rollover simulator will be in place throughout the event, which runs Oct. 3 from 2 to 4 p.m. and demonstrates the importance of fastening your seat belt each time you enter a vehicle.

he annual Fire and Life Safety Fair is providing Mission Fire/ Rescue Service another opportunity to promote the importance of working smoke alarms in the home, according to the assistant fire chief. The Oct. 3 event — switched to a Sunday afternoon rather than the traditional Tuesday night time slot — has a smoke alarm theme in 2010, explained Assistant Chief Larry Watkinson, which dovetails well with the local fire department’s focus this year on the life-saving devices. “Smoke alarms are truly a sound you can live with,” he said, “and if we convince even a single household to install or ensure their alarms are working, we’ll have accomplished our goal.” Mission firefighters have been going door-to-door throughout the community to ensure residents are as fire safe as can be and that everyone has working smoke alarms, he continued. “During this year’s campaign, Mission Fire/Rescue is committed to this and if a resident did not have a battery or a working smoke alarm, they were provided with one to ensure they are protected.”

Smoke alarms provide that extra time families need to escape if there’s a fire. MISSION FIRE RESCUE PHOTO
To date, firefighters have visited just under 200 homes, said Watkinson, and 11 per cent were unprotected (had no working smoke alarm), while 12 per cent had functional alarms and extinguishers. The campaign was started after changes to the BC Fire Code earlier this year that now require every home, hotel or motel room constructed pre1979 to have smoke alarms installed. Owners of older buildings can use battery-operated alarms, and these should be installed on every level of the home and outside sleeping areas.
