Limit medicinal pot growers to rural zones: recommendation BY CAROL AUN

120 YEARS CELEBRATED

Mission Record

Council unanimously agreed Mission’s bylaws to prohibit agricultural use in industrial and commercial lands need to be enforced, but the debate about where to allow and how to regulate legal marijuana grow operations continues. Medical marijuana growers can hold either a licence to grow for personal use or one as a designated person growing for others; both are issued by Health Canada. In August, the Mission Chamber of Commerce raised safety concerns about growers using industrial/ commercial sites and urged council to uphold the district’s own bylaw. District staff suggested limiting medicinal marijuana growers to the rural and rural residential designated zones. Other conditions include having a building permit and regular safety inspections, producing the original licence indicating where, the number of allowable plants, the amount of dried marijuana allowed, and written consent from the land owner, if the property is rented. The plants also cannot be grown inside a family home. Mayor Ted Adlem was the lone supporter of the recommendation, while the rest of council opted to defer until more investigation is done. Coun. Larry Nundal questioned why someone growing tomatoes

with the same chemicals, wouldn’t be required to go through this process and said he didn’t have an issue with someone growing two or three marijuana plants in the urban areas for their personal use. “I want to make sure we’re not putting people in distress,” he said. Nundal also added, “We overreact right away without knowing the impact on the innocent.” Coun. Jenny Stevens said she had “considerable reservations” to allowing licensed marijuana grow ops in dense areas, but knows it’s not as simple as restricting it to a certain region. She suggested looking into the

two types of licences separately. “Part of my concern is compliance,” said Coun. Tony Luck. “There’s no point in doing all this if there is no compliance.” Adlem was opposed to the delay, warning his fellow council members they are actually deferring public safety. “This gives us some control,” said Adlem. According to district staff, of the roughly 380 licensed marijuana growers in Mission, only one or two have sought out building permits and had their facility inspected for safety. “One in three fires is related to

this,” said Adlem. “That’s a public safety issue.” Staff will research council’s suggestions and discuss the issue further with the politicians in a workshop at a later date. Ottawa is working on changes to the Medical Marijuana Access Regulation program and will be directing authorized users to buy from permitted commercial growers instead. At last week’s Union of B.C. Municipalities meeting, civic leaders voted to support the decriminalization of marijuana. See page 13 for more details on the UBCM resolution.

Ambassador program funding cut Budget reductions bring about 2,666 hours reduction BY CAROL AUN Mission Record

Funding for Mission’s Downtown Ambassador program has been reduced and the hours have been further cut. From Sept. 17 to the end of the year, two security guards will work four hours a day from Tuesday to Saturday with alternate

Thursdays off and no coverage for Sunday and Monday. One guard will be available one hour in the evenings to cover closing time at the library from Monday to Thursday. Service was already decreased in April and had to be reduced again in order to operate within the budget set by council. In 2011, the downtown security program budget was $83,169, but council wanted to decrease costs by $40,000 this year, leading to 2,666 hours less coverage. The program budget in 2013 is $51,539, with funds coming

At Monday night’s council meeting, Mayor Ted Adlem also asked staff to investigate whether the district would get more “value for the dollar” if it hired a designated bylaw enforcement officer for the downtown, rather than continue with the security guards. The officer would work varying hours to continue providing support for the library. Staff will compare the options, consult with the Downtown Business Association, and prepare a report to council.

Council supporting ALR subdivision BY CAROL AUN Mission Record

Most of council is supporting an application to subdivide a 14acre parcel of Agricultural Land Reserve (ALR) land in Silverdale, even though it does not meet requirements set out in Mission’s Official Community Plan (OCP). The OCP says ALR lands must be a minimum of 8.9 acres, but if the property located at 9479 Hayward St. is subdivided, each parcel would be 7.2 acres. The proposal is being brought forward by George Donatelli, who wants to split the land with his brother, Ralph. Currently, there is a small-scale hay production on the property that the subdivision would not affect.

The property has been held by the Donatellis since 1889 and the family doesn’t have any immediate plans to sell. The subdivision would allow the brothers to build a separate dwelling in the future and eventually provide properties for their children. “I’d like to see the Donatellis do this,” said Mayor Ted Adlem, who, like the rest of council, noted their respect for the pioneer family. District planners are recommending the applicants seek an OCP change first, then council can forward it to the Agricultural Land Commission (ALC) with their support. If the property doesn’t comply with the OCP, the ALC will not approve it, explained Barclay Pitkethly, Mission’s deputy director of development services.

He also warned if council amends the OCP, it would apply to all ALR properties in Mission, not just this application. “With respect to the Donatellis, I don’t think we can contemplate this based on who’s asking,” said Coun. Jenny Stevens. “We will be opening up a whole set of possibilities. I’m nervous about sending anything to the ALC west of Nelson.” Coun. Jeff Jewel asked if an exception could be made. “We’re not trying to change the guidelines; we want to support the application,” said Jewell. Because the land is in the ALR, the ALC will have the final word on whether it can be subdivided. Councillors Dave Hensman and Nelson Tilbury were absent from Monday’s meeting.

OPINION

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

Time to face reality

The group representing local governments throughout the province has become the latest to call for the end to a war that there is no hope of winning. “For too long our communities have borne the brunt of the harmful consequences of cannabis prohibition, from increased gang violence on our streets to enormous costs of enforcing a thoroughly discredited policy,” said John Ranns, the mayor of Metchosin, which brought forward the resolution calling for the decriminalization of cannabis that was endorsed at last week’s Union of B.C. Municipalities convention. At first glance, you could be forgiven for asking yourself: What have these guys been smoking? The issue of marijuana decriminalization is clearly something that falls under the jurisdiction of the federal government. But on further reflection it becomes apparent that it is communities, both large and small, that feel the sting of the rising bloodshed and squandered resources caused by Canada’s failed drug policies. And B.C.’s municipal leaders are not alone. Dr. Evan Wood, professor of medicine at the University of B.C., called the UBCM resolution a “symbolic gesture” in the bid to stop a trade in which $2.7 billion annually goes to organized crime. “Prohibition has not achieved its stated objectives to reduce the demand for and supply of cannabis. Instead, current laws have resulted in negative social and economic consequences at the municipal and provincial level,” said Wood, the founder of Stop the Violence B.C., a coalition of academic, legal, law enforcement and health experts campaigning to reform cannabis laws. Prime Minister Stephen Harper has made it clear that he has no desire to change or amend the marijuana laws. But that can’t stop B.C.’s civic leaders from doing what they believe is best for the communities they serve. - Kelowna Capital News

Leaders spin contest ends in a tie

he Union of B.C. Municipalities convention is the political event of the year for B.C. party leaders, especially heading into a provincial election. Up first was NDP leader Adrian Dix, who drew a large crowd of local politicians last week for the traditional earlymorning spot that follows a long evening of receptions. In contrast to his debut last year, a typical litany of political attacks on the B.C. Liberals, Dix declared he would take the high road. And perhaps mindful of Carole James’ downfall after her content-free speech to the 2010 UBCM convention, Dix set out policies. He told delegates an NDP government would restore local authority over Metro Vancouver transit (no more toothless “mayor’s council”) and mountain resorts (no more Jumbo ski resort permits issued over local objections). Dix would also let communities decide if they want public-private partnerships for large construction projects. (Federal Heritage Minister James Moore later noted that if communities or provinces

Are you in favour with cutting the Downtown Ambassador of the Week: budget?

less of who is governing in Victoria or Ottawa. It includes some of the most staggeringly expensive road building in Canada, in the Kicking Horse Pass, a short section that could require two tunnels and up to 12 more bridges. Clark also announced a long-range plan to replace the George Massey tunnel under the Fraser River. It will likely be a bridge, because the tunnel is a bottleneck not only for Highway 99, but also for large ships going up-river. This is another project that will proceed eventually, and there is no specific financial commitment yet. I haven’t found any outright false claims in Clark’s presentation, just the kind of creative accounting and blacktop politics familiar to B.C. voters. As always, I’m pleased to hear from people with specific corrections. For now, call it a tie. Neither speech represents a proud moment for our provincial leadership.

More civility needed Public park fight at council meetings reflects poorly Editor, The Record: On Sept. 17 at the Mission council meeting, it was depressing and appalling to witness the verbal abuse directed at Terry Mortimer, who was merely trying to question some points pertaining to an item on that evening’s agenda. It appears quite clear Mayor Ted Adlem intends to have question period axed, as do the majority of councillors, who demonstrated their intent by hastily cutting off question period whilst Mr. Mortimer was speaking. As not one councillor, nor the CAO or deputy CAO even tried to remonstrate the mayor’s bullying, anyone would conclude that they were either complicit in this or abjectly accepting it. The rules of council proceedings appear to be elastic and inequitable, evidenced by allowing Coun. Dave Hensman to challenge Mr. Mortimer for shopping at Wal-Mart, even though that business was

never on the agenda, and further reinforced by permitting another speaker to just make a statement. Obviously, favoured people receive preferential treatment. Mayor and council were in agreement to go forward, in principle, with a new position of citizen engagement. What is wrong with open and honest dialogue with all department heads? The unpublicized introduction of the webcast is an example of poor communication. What happened on Sept. 17 was the direct antithesis of engaging public participation, and displayed utter disdain for the democratic process. Jeanette Smith Silverhill Editor’s note: According to council procedures bylaw, council meetings adjourn at 9:30 p.m. unless two-thirds of members vote otherwise. On Sept. 17, council chose not to extend the meeting to accommodate question period.

Editor, The Record: I wanted to say thanks to Prospera Credit Union for the Cinema Under the Stars movie E.T. I brought my cousin so she could see how cool it is to watch a movie outdoors and how awesome Mission is. Around the beginning of the movie a man had his laptop open on his lap. Another gentleman came up and asked him to close it but when he didn’t the second man closed the laptop without permission and then they started fighting and swearing. This was embarrassing because my cousin probably thinks Mission is a dangerous place now. She seemed scared because she was very close to the men. I hope that both men are sorry about swearing and fighting in front of children. I still think Mission is a good and beautiful place to live. Joseph, age 10 Mission

No details yet on money promised for Mission school BY TOM FLETCHER Black Press

Premier Christy Clark announced $207 million worth of accelerated capital projects, including roadworks, school and hospital improvements in her speech to close the Union of B.C. Municipalities convention Friday. Clark said accelerated projects will be announced in the weeks ahead, including school improvements in Nanaimo, Campbell River, Houston, Surrey, Richmond, Mission, Maple Ridge and West Vancouver. “These are new projects that we can get started this year, but this capital investment is not new money,” Clark told a

Victoria convention hall packed with local politicians. “It is money we have saved from pinching our pennies, and I am very proud of that.” According to Maple Ridge-Mission MLA, details are scarce on what the local money is for. He also did not know when an announcement specifying those details would happen. Clark also pledged the four-laning the last 240 km of the Trans-Canada Highway from Kamloops to the Alberta border, a project expected to cost $650 million over the next 10 years. The commitment adds $509 million to the existing B.C. budget of $141 million over three years, with federal cost sharing to be negotiated.

Neil arrested BY MONISHA MARTINS Black Press

A Maple Ridge man convicted of sex offences in Thailand was arrested at Vancouver International Airport on Friday, according to police. Christopher Paul Neil, 37, was returning to Canada from Bangkok where he was imprisoned for the past five years after being found guilty of sexually abusing young boys. The RCMP’s Integrated Child Exploitation unit obtained a warrant for Neil’s arrest under a rarely used section of the Criminal Code that’s designed to protect the public before a criminal offence has been committed. Police allege Neil’s actions cause fear of sexual offences to persons under the age of 16. “Christopher Neil has no criminal record in Canada, but his actions in other countries were such that police

felt important to have him appear in front of a court so any public safety concerns can be addressed,” said Cpl. Mat. Van Laer. Neil was the subject of an international manhunt in 2007 after Interpol unscrambled digitally swirled images of him engaging in sexual acts with young boys. After the Interpol warrant was issued, Neil fled from South Korea, where he was teaching English, to Thailand. Neil attended the Seminary of Christ the King in Mission from 1995 to 1999 and received a B.C. independent teaching certificate in 2000. He volunteered at St. Patrick’s Catholic School in Maple Ridge in 2000 and 2001 and was a substitute teacher at Arch Bishop Carney in Port Coquitlam for five days in April and May of 2007. There are no allegations of abuse against him while he was teaching in B.C.

I made an appointment with Dr. Lui and found the implant procedure virtually painless. My dental implant was problem free so, five years later, I had another implant placed by Dr. Lui. I have no discomfort, I can eat anything and the implants are easy to brush - just like normal teeth!

Every September, Shoppers Drug Mart® stores across Canada set up a Tree of Life in support of women’s health, with 100% of all proceeds going directly to women’s health initiatives in your community. Over the years, you’ve contributed over $17 million and we’re hoping you’ll help us make a difference again this year.

I have complete confidence in Dr. Lui. His rates are fair and I know he keeps up-to-date with the latest technology and equipment. I highly recommend Dr. Lui to anyone considering having tooth replacement with a dental implant. Dorothy Lee, Retired teacher

Neil arrested A convicted pedophile from Maple Ridge, who was arrested last week when he landed in Canada after serving time in a Thai prison, remains behind bars for now, but could be released later this week. Christopher Paul Neil appeared in Richmond Provincial Court on Monday and consented to remain in custody until Wednesday, when a bail hearing is scheduled. Police arrested the 37-year-old former teacher at Vancouver airport on Friday, when he returned to Canada from Thailand, where he spent five years in prison for sexually abusing young boys. The RCMP’s Integrated Child Exploitation unit obtained a warrant for Neil’s arrest under a rarely used section of the Criminal Code that’s designed to protect the public before a criminal offence is committed. Police allege Neil’s actions cause fear of sexual offences to persons under the age of 16. Crown will be applying

HIGHWAY

DL# 8166

for a Section 810 peace bond, which is a preventative court order that could include conditions that prohibit Neil from accessing the Internet or being near children. Neil could be released on bail before a peace bond is imposed. Neil was the subject of an international manhunt in 2007 after Interpol unscrambled digitally swirled images of him molesting young boys. After the Interpol warrant was issued, Neil fled from South Korea, where he was teaching English, to Thailand. Neil attended the Seminary of Christ the King in Mission from 1995 to 1999 and received a B.C. independent teaching certificate in 2000. He volunteered at St. Patrick’s Catholic School in Maple Ridge in 2000 and 2001 and was a substitute teacher at Arch Bishop Carney in Port Coquitlam for five days in April and May of 2007. There are no allegations of abuse against him while he was teaching in B.C.

Vacant house destroyed A house set to be demolished burned to the ground on Janzen Avenue off Cedar Street early Monday morning. Mission Fire/Rescue was dispatched around 4 a.m., and according to Asst. Chief Larry Watkinson, the structure was fully ablaze when crews arrived, but the fire was brought under control within minutes. The fire originated in the fireplace, where an investigation uncovered someone had been burning wood and other items. Here, fire prevention officer Capt. Mike Schmidt surveys the damage.

Medical pot controls demanded Cross-border cash drain debated The cash drain on local businesses from crossborder shopping inspired one UBCM resolution that generated debate. Castlegar council proposed a resolution to lobby the federal government to rescind its recent loosening of overnight duty free limits, which significantly increased the value of goods Canadians can bring back

after trips of at least 24 hours. “The federal government is encouraging us to go across the border and increase our spending,” Castlegar Coun. Dan Rye said. But the motion was defeated after Creston Coun. Wesly Graham opposed it and said Ottawa should simply tighten the current lax collection of duties and taxes by Canadian border guards.

Cities push B.C.-wide shark fin ban UBCM delegates voted by a wide margin to ask

the province to outlaw the possession or sale of shark fins that Chinese restaurants turn into coveted bowls of shark fin soup. Activists have been going from city to city in Metro Vancouver convincing councils to impose local bans but North Vancouver City Coun. Craig Keating said a provincial ban is preferable, along with a federally imposed ban on shark fin imports.

B.C. civic leaders have called for tighter controls on Health Canada-licensed medical marijuana growers, citing public safety and nuisance issues. The vote came during the same Union of B.C. Municipalities convention that saw delegates vote to support decriminalization of marijuana. “We need to find a way to know where these are so we can provide some regulatory control,” North Cowichan regional district director Al Siebring said. He said most busts of pot grow-ops turn out to be licensed by Health Canada but are growing “far, far more” than permitted and are increasingly linked to organized crime. The Surrey-sponsored resolution calls on the federal government to force medical pot growers to first get a municipal permit or licence showing the grow site complies with local bylaws and electrical, fire, health, building and safety regulations. It’s the first time UBCM has actually approved the demand. It came to the convention floor in the previous two years but was tabled each time amid concerns from some civic leaders that a crackdown would breach growers’ privacy and reduce medical marijuana access. Ottawa is already moving to phase out the current individual licences to grow medical pot and instead direct authorized users to buy from permitted commercial growers. Senior B.C. Conservative minister James Moore said UBCM’s other vote on marijuana – to decriminalize it – won’t sway the federal government. “We’re elected on a platform that very explicitly said we are not interested in legalizing marijuana.”

WHAT’S

at your

Graphic and Digital Design program head Karin Jager speaks to students about an upcoming project.

Graphic and Digital Design program

brings creative energy to UFV Mission

new type of student is bringing a new kind of energy to the Mission campus of the University of the Fraser Valley this fall. UFV has launched a Graphic and Digital Design program at its Mission site, located in the Heritage Park Centre. It’s technically a re-launch, as the program has been on hiatus for a decade, but with all the changes in the design industry in that time, it’s like a brand-new program. And thanks to a $500,000 contribution from the District of Mission, the program has four state-of-the-art dedicated classrooms and labs from which to run the program. “We’re incredibly thankful for the fi nancial support from the district,” says Karin Jager, who

has been hired as the founding program head for the revitalized program. “We’ve been able to develop sustainable labs based on industry standards.” Students come in with their own Macbook Pro laptops complete with the Adobe Creative Suite, and UFV provides a working environment that models professional studios — students have access to the entire Adobe font library, a production studio with colour printing, giant Thunderbolt displays to hook their laptops up to, a photo studio, a drawing and painting studio, computer servers, and lab support. “There is a huge learning curve with technology and software and the laptops enable unlimited access to tools. And they will serve the students well when they

graduate and start their careers or continue their studies,” says Jager. Jager, who has considerable experience in the field of graphic design education through her previous work at Capilano University and her role as national vice president for education of the Society of Graphic Designers of Canada (GDC), is excited about being in on the ground floor of developing a new program and curriculum. She also brings current practical experience to the job, through her own graphic design consultancy. The two-year, 60-credit Graphic and Digital Design diploma provides students with a foundation of design skills, from which they will go on to learn about digital design for print and web. They study illustration,

visual arts, interactive design, dynamic media (motion graphics and animation), and communication design. “By the time the students graduate they will likely choose one or two of these areas to specialize in,” Jager notes. “They will be able to enter the industry in junior positions, or may choose to continue their education at the undergraduate degree level.” They will be prepared to work for a company or organization as a junior graphic designer, or set themselves for freelance work in the creative industry. Jager and her students are enjoying the warm welcome being extended by the Mission campus and community. “We’ve been well-embraced here in Mission, and it is a beautiful campus and facility.” A month into their studies, the students have completed two big projects in Jager’s courses: a digital wallpaper screens where they explored elements and principles of design, and a second — a ‘zine’ about Fraser River Heritage Park where they learned about the design process. They are also taking visual arts and digital software courses from other instructors. “I am very inspired by the students and the new GDD program,” says Jager. “Many different styles and approaches emerged from these two projects. The students are energetic and engaged, and each student sees things in a different way.”

Thanks District of Mission

— this program would not be possible without your generous support!

firepreventionweek OCTOBER 7 - 13TH, 2012

The Canadian Association of Fire Chiefs (CAFC) along with fire departments and primary and pre-school teachers across the country, have introduced a new tool to help kids and families be better prepared in case of fire: cute and fuzzy bunny rabbits. “Have Two Ways Out” is this year’s theme for Fire Prevention Week, which runs Oct. 7-13. The theme builds on rabbits’ instinct to always have at least two exits from their underground homes leading to safety. Fire Chief Stephen Gamble, president of the CAFC, says families who create and practise an escape plan to-

gether, with two ways out of every room if possible, have a better chance of escaping during a real fire emergency. A special website (safeathome.ca/twowaysout) is now live where families can print a home escape plan template. Families who register the completion of their plan on line are rewarded with a “Have Two Ways Out” certificate and the chance to win over $10,000 in prizes including Kidde escape ladders, smoke and carbon monoxide alarms. Teachers can also register their classrooms for a chance to win Domino’s Pizza Parties, and more.

Annual fair Oct. 14 at fire station one BY JASON ROESSLE Mission Record

The annual Fire and Life Safety Fair takes place Oct. 14 from 1 to 4 p.m. Fire station one on Seventh Avenue will be transformed into a site for family entertainment, safety information, and vehicle displays. The ever-popular Junior Firefighter Challenge has been modified slightly this year, but kids will still get the chance to run an obstacle course that includes running, crawling and dragging fire hose. According to Asst. Fire Chief Larry Watkinson, the department will be offering information on how to safely manage a fire on the kitchen

stove, and firefighters will be demonstrating how they perform balcony rescues with

their ladder truck. The RCMP will bring its rollover demonstration ma-

chine which vividly shows the importance of fastening your seatbelt, a vehicle extrication demo is scheduled, and representatives from the B.C. Ambulance Service, Mission Search and Rescue, and a number of other groups will be on hand to talk to the public. Kids can take an online fire quiz (mission.ca/firecontest) and they will be entered into a contest to win Fire Chief for a Day. The lucky winner gets a ride to school in a fire truck, and firefighters and the fire chief will bring pizza to the child’s class for everyone. The winner also gets to go to a council meeting and be recognized by mayor and council.

Get the right smoke Only a working smoke alarm can save your life! alarm for situation FIRE PREVENTION WEEK OCT. 7-14

Smoke alarms save lives “Fall back” to smart home safety As most Canadians turn back the clocks on November 4, here are some timely smoke and carbon monoxide (CO) safety tips: • When you change your clocks, test your smoke arlam. • You have less than three minutes to escape a fire. So when smoke alarms sound, everyone must know what to do and where to go. Having and practising an escape plan is essential. • Install one smoke alarm on every storey and outside bedrooms. Install inside bedrooms if you sleep with doors closed. • Ensure all smoke alarms are fully powered. Never take out batteries or remove an alarm from ceiling due to a false alarm. • If your home has any fuel-burning devices such as a gas furnace, gas water heater, gas appliances, or an attached garage or carport, install at least one CSAapproved carbon monoxide outside all sleeping areas. One per storey is recommended.

• Replace smoke alarms every 10 years, and CO alarms every 7-10 years (depending on manufacturer) whether battery operated or hardwired into your home’s electrical system. Carbon monoxide is colourless, odourless and tasteless. So without a CO alarm, humans cannot detect its presence. Despite the average home having several potential sources of the deadly gas, studies show that nearly 60 per cent of Canadians have not installed a CO alarm. In addition to being impossible to detect, CO also has another nefarious trait. Symptoms of carbon monoxide exposure mimic the flu, without the fever. It is routinely responsible for thousands of clinic and hospital visits each year, and is commonly misdiagnosed. Prolonged or extreme exposure causes nausea, dizziness, confusion, the loss of physical mobility, brain damage and ultimately, death. More home safety resources can be found on the www. safeathome.ca web site.

Analysis was undertaken on almost 50,000 fires that occurred in Alberta, British Columbia, and Ontario over a 5-year period involving 663 fatalities. The findings demonstrated that the death rate per 1,000 fires in the absence of a present, functioning smoke alarm was 74% greater than when a functioning smoke alarm was present.

Thanksgiving turkey fires cause for concern at 9-1-1 centre E -Comm’s fire dispatch team is warning families to be mindful of their turkey cooking during Thanksgiving weekend. “A turkey isn’t something you typically see on a list of household fire hazards, but we get 9-1-1 calls about ovens going up in flames all the time,” says Corey Kelso, E-Comm fire dispatcher. “The result can be devastating if you’re not careful every time you have something cooking for an extended period of time.”

E-Comm has received some odd calls to 9-1-1 before – including someone wanting to know how long to cook a turkey – but a turkey fire is no joke. In fact, it is a leading cause of spikes in 9-1-1 calls over the holidays. “A flame in your oven can start easily and escalate quickly,” says Kelso. “Oil drippings through a thin tinfoil turkey pan or bits of leftover food residue inside your oven are extremely flammable in a high temperature setting.”

Many fatal fires start at night Investigations into home fire deaths very often find that a smoke alarm did not sound. It may have been disconnected or not in working order. The batteries may have been dead, or someone may have taken them out. Smoke alone won’t necessarily wake you up. In fact, the fumes could put you into an even deeper sleep. Often, victims never wake up. Se-

niors will often need assistance from family members to put safety measures into place. As well, family members are in the best position to reinforce the precautions necessary to help their loved ones prevent or respond to a fire. Focus on these six priorities to help aging family members protect themselves against fire in the home.

■ INSTALL smoke alarms inside every bedroom, outside each sleeping area and on every level of the home, including the basement. ■ Larger homes may need ADDITIONAL smoke alarms to provide enough protection. ■ For the best protection, INTERCONNECT all smoke alarms so when one sounds they all sound. ■ An IONIZATION smoke alarm is generally more responsive to flaming fires and a PHOTOELECTRIC smoke alarm is generally more responsive to smoldering fires. For the best protection, both types of alarms or combination ionization and photoelectric alarms (also known as dual sensor alarms) are recommended. ■ Smoke alarms should be INSTALLED away from the kitchen to prevent false alarms. Generally, they should be at least 10 feet (3 meters) from a cooking appliance. ■ REPLACE all smoke alarms when they are 10 years old.

Smoke alarms are not all the same. By choosing the correct technology you can keep your family safe and reduce those annoying false alarms when you cook or shower. Photoelectric smoke alarms are a good choice near kitchens or in areas adjacent to bathrooms, say fire safety experts. Their sensors are best at detecting slow smouldering fires — which means you will have fewer false alarms caused by burnt toast or shower steam. Ionization smoke alarms are good for general living areas, as their sensors are best at detecting fastflaming fires. Fire departments say that having both types of alarms installed in your home, or a combination with both types of sensors, provides the best protection. More information as well as fire safety tips can be found online at www.safeathome.ca. Carbon monoxide leaks an increased threat as cold weather arrives That extra nip in the fall air provides a reminder that increased vigilance is required to protect your family from carbon monoxide, known as the “silent killer.” For one Ontario man, it is an especially stark reminder. In late 2008 John Gignac, a retired firefighter, lost his niece, her husband and their two children to carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning. A blocked chimney vent forced the deadly gas from their gas fireplace back into their home. After his family tragedy, Gignac established the Hawkins-Gignac Foundation for CO Education and spends his retirement imploring others to protect themselves from CO with one simple step: installing a CSAapproved carbon monoxide alarm. Carbon monoxide is colourless, odourless and tasteless. So without a CO alarm,

humans cannot detect its presence. Despite the average home having several potential sources of the deadly gas, studies show that nearly 60 per cent of Canadians have not installed a CO alarm. “Over the past four years I have spoken to dozens of groups and hundreds of people and the comments are almost always the same,” Gignac says. “People tell me they don’t need a carbon monoxide alarm because they have electric heat. But when I ask them if they have a gas appliance or water heater, or a wood-burning or gas fireplace, or a garage or carport attached to their house, they all get a horrified look on their face. Because any one of those can be a source of CO and their families have been at risk for years.” In addition to being impossible to detect, CO also has another nefarious trait. Symptoms of carbon monoxide exposure mimic the flu, without the fever. It is routinely responsible for thousands of clinic and hospital visits each year, and is commonly misdiagnosed. Prolonged or extreme exposure causes nausea, dizziness, confusion, the loss of physical mobility, brain damage and ultimately, death. Gignac offers these four CO safety steps: • Have a licensed inspector check heating systems and other fuelburning appliances, including fireplaces, every year. • Install one CSAapproved CO alarm on each storey of your home and outside all sleeping areas. • Check outside to make sure all exhaust flues and vents are not obstructed. • Replace CO alarms every 7-10 years depending on the manufacturer, whether battery operated or hardwired. More safety tips are available online at www. endthesilence.ca.

he aging Ruskin Powerhouse will soon be behind scaffolding as BC Hydro begins a six-year project to upgrade the facility. But before the work got underway, media were given the opportunity to tour the powerhouse last week and take a final look at the building in its original 1930s form. “Unlike other modern day projects, we have unique architecture and we will try to expand on it,” said Boyd Mason, project manager. The powerhouse was constructed in the 1930s in an art deco style, and expanded in the 1950s. The powerhouse will undergo seismic upgrades and be restored and enhanced. “It will be quite beautiful,” predicts Mason, noting when it’s completed, the building will be a lot cleaner, and some of the windows will be filled in to strengthen the shearing ability of the structure. “We’re doing this to withstand a one in 10,000 year earthquake,” the project manager

Currently some functions in the control room can be accessed remotely, but after it’s finished, everything will run from the Fraser Valley Operations Centre. Crews will only access the control room in special circumstances, said Mason. Discussions are still ongoing about the fate of the light bulb and other heritage pieces, but BC Hydro promises they will be saved, said Dobrowolski. There are four stages to the $718 million project, with the powerhouse upgrades being the most expensive. All the equipment inside the powerhouse will be replaced, including the turbines and generators. Work is currently being done on the right abutment to stabilize the soil, which will resist the impact of a large earthquake. The two other stages are dam and water intake upgrades, and relocating the switchyard from the top of the powerhouse to the left bank hill behind it. There will not be any service interruptions while the project is happening and all the work is expected to be finished by 2018.

The generators and cranes will be replaced as part of the renovations. The first generator was installed in the early 1930s.

Carbon monoxide safety for the winter It is important to install a carbon monoxide detector in your home. However, carbon monoxide detectors do not replace the need for prevention through yearly maintenanceand inspection of heating systems and appliances. Smoke inhalation from fires is the most common form of carbon monoxide poisoning. Cigarette smoke and vehicle exhaust are the most common sources of regular carbon monoxide exposure. There must be an adequate supply of air for complete burning or combustion, or an excessive amount of carbon monoxide will accumulate indoors. Ensure that your wood stove or fireplace is not competing – for long periods of time – with your clothes dryer, kitchen, bathroom and attic vent fans, central vacuum cleaners and kitchen

barbecues, which exhaust air from the home and so starve the furnace or the fireplace of oxygen. Proper venting of fuel-burning appliances to the outside is also essential to prevent collection of carbon monoxide gas inside buildings. Never insulate or try to seal up a drafty hood, wind cap or exhaust vent on any natural gas appliance (furnace, water heater, range, dryer, space heater or fireplace). Keep all

Mission will hold its fourth fall Connect Event on Thursday, Oct. 11 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at All Saints Church at the corner of Second Avenue and James Street. Members of the community are committed to finding solutions for all of our members. Some of us have, at times, found ourselves in situations of need. This can look like empty cupboards, a disconnect to resources or even homelessness. Our goal is to create connections with people that will improve their quality of life. Mission Connect is an opportunity for community members of all backgrounds to gather and celebrate the diversity of our community through services to vulnerable individuals and families as well as creating working networks between service providers. Connect Events are coordinated twice annually (October and April) through the Outreach Network, a working group under the District of Mission’s Social Development

fuel-burning equipment free of lint, dust and trash. Don’t store anything close to the equipment that could restrict air circulation. Do a visual inspection of the equipment to look for signs of equipment problems, such as soot on a fireplace face, water collecting near a burner or rusted venting. If even a small doubt exists, have the equipment inspected by a qualified technician. Periodically check vent pipes between gas appliances and the chimney for corrosion or rust. Equipment that uses natural gas should show a clear blue flame—a yellow or orange flame may indicate a problem. If a problem appears, call a qualified technician. Ensure a source of fresh air is available, for an example an open window or flue, when operating a woodburning fireplace.

Mission BPW honours Yu and Macdonald this year

Sharon Syrette will present a radiostyle broadcast of anecdotes and lessons from local women who pursued the only two accepted careers for women in the early 20th century — teacher and nurse — at the Mission Business and Professional Women’s Women (BPW) of the Year event. Syrette will tell stories from the arrival of the Sisters of St. Anne at St. Mary’s Indian Residential School in the 1860s, to Mary Ann Tretheway’s days as CPR nurse in the 1890s, midwife Etsu Hashizume’s delivery of over 100 Japanese babies, First World War army nurse Constance Dempster’s experiences, and the post-war role of the Women’s Auxiliary in the effort to build the Mission Memorial Hospital. In education, hundreds of young

women started their working lives as teachers, but most, like Edith Catherwood, had to leave when they married. Christine Morrison, the first woman principal in the district, stayed single and had a life-long career in education. On Oct. 10, the Mission BPW will honour two outstanding women, Marilyn Macdonald and Teresa Yu who represent, in a modern way, the thousands who pursued the “respectable” careers of teacher and nurse. Tickets are $60 and still available by contacting Pam Alexis at 604-3022005. The awards dinner will be held at the Cedarbrooke Chateau at 7 p.m. Proceeds will provide bursaries for Mission women pursuing post-secondary education.

ONTS season opens with Blithe Spirit this month Opening Nite Theatre Society is opening its sixth season with Blithe Spirit, one Noel Coward’s best known works. This ghost story comedy can be described as a metaphysical malarkey peppered with razor-

sharp wit and humour. This season opener is a refreshingly hilarious take on life, love, and the problems of coming back from the afterlife. Writer Charles Candomine is a suave and urbane man with good

GIVE THANKS

We all are taught at an early age to say “please” and “thank you,” and once we are old enough to pray, we are taught to extend these gracious words to God. Young children learn to thank God for their parents, their siblings, and for all of the other blessings bestowed on them. But, it can be difficult to explain to children, or adults for that matter, how and why we should be thankful for everything. In the First Epistle of Paul to the Thessalonians we are told to “Rejoice always, pray constantly, and give thanks in all circumstances” (1 Thessalonians 5: 16-18). Perhaps Paul’s point here is that just as we can choose to pray or not to pray, and indeed even pray without ceasing by keeping an internal dialogue going with God, we can choose to rejoice and to give thanks at all times. Giving thanks is more about choosing to have a thankful attitude than it is about explicitly saying, “thank you” to God. And just as we can strive to maintain a constant internal dialogue with God, so too can we remain ever thankful in our outlook and attitude. Of course, we must realize that being thankful is more about our subjective attitude than the objective external circumstances of our lives.

O give thanks unto the Lord, for He is good: for His mercy endureth for ever. K.J.V. Psalm 107:1

looks and a quick mind. His wife, the beautiful but flighty Elvira, dies laughing at a young age. Grief stricken but never one to be defeated by circumstance, Charles moves on. It’s seven years later, and Charles has re-married. With his more cerebral second wife, Ruth, and their friends, the Bradmans, Charles hosts a dinner party with the local loopy medium as guest of honour. Charles is hoping for some good material for his next book. Instead, he gets his first wife back. Now a more ethereal beauty than before, and visible only to Charles, Elvira proceeds to cause all sorts of trouble for Charles, Ruth, and Madame Arcati, who really never expected an actual manifestation. This improbable farce stars local actors Brent Boutilier and Kathy Yewell as Charles and Ruth Condomine, and features Cara Thomson as Elvira and newcomer Norma Rushton as the loopy and mercurial medium Madame Arcati. Blithe Spirit opens Oct. 19 and runs Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m. and Sundays at 2 p.m. until Nov. 19. Tickets are $12 each and available at Murdoch’s Book Shoppe on First Avenue or at the door. Opening Nite Theatre is located across from the West Coast Express Station at 33223 N. Railway Ave. in downtown Mission. For more information visit openingnitetheatresociety.tripod.com.

Adopt a dog drive on now A dog adoption drives starts this week in Mission, and runs until the end of the year. Between January and June of this year, 20 dogs were brought into the SAINTS (Senior Animals In Need Today Society) shelter, but only five were adopted. SAINTS works with animals that are often unadoptable due to their specialized physical and medical needs. The society provides living end-of-life care for these animals. Many go to SAINTS from other pounds where they were to be euthanized. The Pedigree Adoption Drive kicked off Sept. 19, and the pet food company has donated $5,000 to the society to help with food, medical expenses and operating costs. Funds for the program come from a portion of proceeds from the sale of each specially marked Pedigree dry dog food. For more information on the adoption drive and adopting a dog, visit mypedigree. ca/adoption. For information on SAINTS, visit saintsrescue.ca.

Buy a Mars bar, help Leisure Centre Mission Leisure Centre’s ice rink is one of five across Canada that will earn funds through purchases of specially marked Mars candy bars. The Play Your Part campaign is underway, and when you buy a Mars, then

receive up to a maximum of $20,000 towards hockey-related improvements and renovations. The Leisure Centre is used by minor hockey, lacrosse and ball hockey players, and in 2014 will play host to the

B.C. Winter Games. Any money derived from the campaign will be put towards replacing the arena’s score clock, which is more than 15 years old, and has recently become unreliable, according to a press release.
