Political sweep for CRMG BY JASON ROESSLE Mission Record

Mission residents swept out the mayor and nearly the entire council in a victory by the Citizens for Responsible Municipal Government (CRMG) slate on Nov. 19. Local business owner Ted Adlem replaced the two-term incumbent, earning 3,728 votes compared to James Atebe’s 2,465. Mike Gildersleeve took 827 votes, while Dan

Williamson tallied 343. CRMG came out with an early lead and held it throughout the ballot counting; the gap widened by a few hundred votes as each new polling station reported, and shortly after 8:30 p.m., Adlem was the winner. Jenny Stevens, also with CRMG, received the highest number of votes (3,720). Sitting at council with her now will be Dave Hensman (2,546), Jeff Jewell (2,843),

Tony Luck (2,956), Larry Nundal (2,946) and Nelson Tilbury (2,638). During his victory speech, a jubilant Adlem said that he “could not have dreamt we would have swept.” He went on to say that with this decisive victory, things will be changing in Mission, and then thanked all the supporters and volunteers. “I’m really excited about the

future of Mission,” said Hensman. “We figured we’d get all or nothing.” Atebe said that he has accepted the results. “At the moment I have to say that, while disappointed, I can’t question the community’s decision. I am proud of my record and I have left a very strong foundation for the community.” • The new council will be sworn in Dec. 5.

Utility rates to increase nearly 50 per cent by 2016 BY ADRIAN MACNAIR Mission Record

Taylor, Lissimore, Carter join local board of trustees Lone new electoral area director beats Bogstie for chair BY JASON ROESSLE AND ROBERT FREEMAN Mission Record

Half the board of school trustees has changed, as only Randy Cairns and Carol Hamilton return. Joining them at the Mission Public Schools’ table is Edie Lissimore and Jim Taylor. A longtime local teacher now retired, Taylor earned the highest number of votes with 3,450, with Hamilton coming second with 3,034. Lissimore earned 2,379 votes, and Cairns trailed with 2,293. “It’s an experience,” said Taylor, moments after the ballot counting ended. “Seeing both myself and Edie elected reflects a push for a more open and trustee-controlled board.” In the rural area, Shelley Carter won by 65 votes over Nick Field, with 204 to 139. Fraser Valley Regional District All but one of the seven electoral area incumbents at the Fraser Valley Regional District (FVRD) board were re-elected Saturday. But mayors from five communities — Abbotsford, Mission, Kent, Hope and Harrison Hot Springs — who sat at the regional board were not re-elected, meaning there’s going to be a fast education schedule as the new mayors are introduced to the complexities of regional government. “It’s going to be interesting,” said Dick Bogstie, long-time director in electoral area G (Hatzic Prairie/McConnell Creek) who lost his seat to

cchallenger Ray Boucher bby a vote of 129-87, acccording to the preliminnary results. “The learning curve ffor everybody is going to bbe huge,” Bogstie said. Bogstie Boucher was not available to comment on his victory Monday. Most incumbent area directors were returned with healthy majorities, except in the Chilliwack River Valley where challenger Taryn Dixon finished close behind incumbent David Lamson. Lamson was returned in area E (Chilliwack River Valley/Cultus Lake) by a vote of 172-148 over Dixon. Lloyd Forman was returned in area A (Boston Bar/North Bend) by a vote of 138-33 over Jim Fougere. Dennis Adamson was returned in area B (Yale/Sunshine Valley) by a vote of 104-68 over Andy Bishop. Wendy Bales was returned in area C (Lake Errock/Hemlock Valley) by a vote of 147-18-108, respectively, over Colin Faulkner and Mel Waardenburg. Bill Dickey was returned in area D (Popkum/Bridal Falls) by a vote of 152-59 over Michael Henshall. Al Stobbart was returned in area G (Deroche/Nicomen Island) by a vote of 153-49 over Lea Ricketts. Bogstie, who has been serving in elected office nearly continuously since he was a director at the Dewdney-Alouette Regional District three years before it merged in 1995 with two other regional districts to form the FVRD, said he’s looking forward now to finally getting around to his retirement. “I’ve been doing this a long time,” he said, about his position at the FVRD where he was also chairman of the community and regulatory services committee. “I’m looking forward to time for me,” he said.

TRAFFIC IMPACTS TO DEWDNEY TRUNK ROAD AND WILSON STREET November – December 2011 BC Hydro is replacing the spillway gates in the Blind Slough Dam at Stave Falls. Dewdney Trunk Road will be closed from 7:00 am November 30 through 6:00 pm December 2 to hoist two new gates over the side of the dam and into position. BC Hydro will be under-grounding a section of the power distribution line that currently runs along the east side of Wilson Street near the Ruskin Dam. For five weeks starting November 21, a single lane closure of Wilson Street will be required from 7:00 am to 5:00 pm to install the duct bank for the distribution line. Priority access will be provided for the school bus and emergency vehicles. Hayward Street over the Ruskin Dam will remain open during this time. We are sorry for the inconvenience this may cause and will complete the work as safely and efficiently as possible. We appreciate your patience during this work. Traffic control personnel will be on site.

Mission’s residential flat-rate water and sewer services will be increasing by as much as 50 per cent from 2010 levels by 2016, mainly due to large scheduled projects during that time. According to the district’s 2012 Community Report, water rates were $389 in 2010 and increased 15 per cent to $447 this year. Those rates will now increase five per cent in each of the following years until they reach $571 in 2016. Sewer services will face a similar hike, reaching $434 in 2016 from $309 in 2010, a 40 per cent increase. Flat-rate sewer services increased 10 per cent in 2011 to $340 and will increase five per cent a year until 2016. According to the district’s deputy director of finance, Kris Boland, it’s largely due to capital projects scheduled between now and 2016. Those projects are outlined in the Community Report, but not the source of funding. “There is a bit of a shortfall based on our projections in the DCCs (development cost charges), so the internal borrowing is going from the water capital reserve to the DCCs,” he said. Part of the rate increases for water and sewers are going to cover operating increases, such as increased salaries resulting from collective bargaining agreements with unionized workers, while a portion will go toward building up reserves, which will fund capital projects such as Norrish Creek water utilities, which will eat up nearly $1 mil-

lion next year, or the $2.1 million Gladwin Road transmission main. There are over a dozen projects scheduled for sewer utilities next year, all in the JAMES treatment plant project, ranging from $60,000 to the $2 million Stage VII upgrades. Boland said the municipality is also cushioning reserves because of the uncertainty about future water plans for the district, and how those may or may not fit in with Abbotsford. “We know something is going to have to happen, so it’s not a matter of dropping rates and giving that money back to everyone.” One of the major differences between the longterm outlook for water and sewer reserves is that water is being built up for large-scale projects, though what those might be are still undetermined. Water reserves are expected to dip to $5.6 million in 2012 before rising to $16.9 million by 2016. But sewer reserves will drop to $4.3 million in 2016 from $6.6 million budgeted for 2012, mainly due to the ongoing JAMES treatment project. “In terms of water and sewer, since we took over the system with Abbotsford, the capital plans have just mushroomed,” said Boland. “We’ve had very little time to plan for these huge projects.” Boland said many of the projects have been driven largely by Abbotsford’s rapid growth. He added while the district is saving reserves as it waits to see what water plans Abbotsford pursues, sewer utilities are localized and the cost projections going forward are foreseeable.

Anonymous commenting to end on Mission Record’s website For the last few years, as missioncityrecord.com and the Black Press family of websites have garnered more attention, some readers have raised concerns about one issue in particular — the fact we allow visitors to post anonymous comments. The policy has led to some unpleasant and mean-spirited postings. It’s also raised an inconsistency in our Black Press brand. Our community newspapers don’t print anonymous letters, yet we’ve allowed our websites to become a place where people can hide their identity while occasionally taking shots at one another. Starting Dec. 1, that policy will change. People will only be able to comment by using their Facebook account, which means their name, often even their photograph, will be linked to the statements they post. Missioncityrecord.com is not alone in making this shift. Several media companies, equally troubled by the vitriolic trend of anonymous comments, are turning to Facebook to power their website commenting. All of Black Press in B.C., Alberta and Washington State have

Up, up and away Ralph Smith, director of Orphaned Wildlife (OWL), releases Frank, a juvenile bald eagle, into the wild at Sandpiper Golf Resort last Wednesday morning after a four-month stay at the rehab centre for birds. Frank was one of 19 young eagles orphaned by his parents in the wild, and then later found and rehabilitated at the centre. The 19 eagles were cared for at OWL by foster parents, all of which are adult eagles who help feed the orphaned birds and teach them how to eat. The eagle release kicked off the annual Fraser Valley Bald Eagle Festival which took place Nov. 19-20 at various locations throughout the Valley. JENNA HAUCK PHOTO

Mission co-pilot passes away in Vancouver General Hospital The co-pilot who was in the Northern Thunderbird Air Beech King Air 100 that crashed in Richmond Oct. 27, succumbed to his injuries last Wednesday night at Vancouver General Hospital. Matt Robic, 26, was one of nine people aboard the plane when it suddenly plummeted onto a busy Richmond, B.C. roadway and burst into flames. That fire caused burns to 80 per cent of his body and killed 44-year-old North Vancouver pilot Luc Fortin. Robic had been in the Intensive Care Unit at Vancouver General Hospital since the incident. A statement released by Northern Thunderbird Airline said he

died surrounded by his girlfriend, parents, younger sister, grandparents and many extended family members and friends. “Matt was a strong, fit and vivacious young man just getting started in a career that he loved. He had recently moved from Mission, where he grew up, to Burnaby, where he and his partner Natalie had recently started a new home together. He was a quietly determined and professional colleague who had good humour and was a joy to work with.” The plane had only been in the air for roughly 15 minutes when an oil pressure indicator light came on. The plane turned to return to Vancouver International Airport

but lost control and crashed onto Russ Baker Way within a kilometre of the airport. The aircraft had been bound for Kelowna. There were seven passengers on Flight 204, along with Robic and Fortin, and all have since been treated and released from hospital. Robic had been working at the Prince George airline since last June and had roughly 1,400 flying hours. Friends and family of Robic had been planning a burger and brew fundraiser for his rehabilitation just before news of his death. A private memorial service will be held at a date and time to be announced.

OPINION

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

Council a true public service Another municipal election has come and gone, washing away those who lost the public trust and ushering in fresh new faces and ideas. Unlike provincial and federal politics, serving in local government is one of the few truly “public service” jobs left in politics. The wages for those who sit on the councils of small towns and cities all over B.C. are compensatory, at best. Nobody goes into civic politics to make a fortune. That’s what keeps politics at this level refreshingly honest. The people who go into local politics generally do so because of a love for where they live and a protective duty for their community, not to grab and hold onto power for selfish reasons. But not all who run for election become the elected. There are also the also-rans. Those parents and grandparents, community volunteers and local business leaders, who decided to put their lives on hold to appeal to a bolder vision for their town. Most of them are just like us. They pay their taxes, scrape by on a modest income, and split time between work and packing their kids in the car to rush off for extracurricular activities. Part of the attraction of municipal politics is that you can often look at a person running for council and say, “there, but for the grace of a regular sleeping routine, go I.”

Chilly climate for B.C. carbon plan

.C.’s carbon emission trading plan died last week at the age of four. No service was announced. The end came as the B.C. capital hosted politicians from neighbouring U.S. states and western provinces for their annual economic conference. Washington, Oregon, Montana, Utah, Arizona and New Mexico followed through with plans to withdraw from the Western Climate Initiative, leaving California, B.C., and theoretically Manitoba, Ontario and Quebec to come up with a trading system to put further costs on greenhouse gas emissions. Fossil fuel kingpins Alberta and Saskatchewan wanted nothing to do with the WCI from the beginning, when it set a goal of 15-percent reduction in emissions by 2020. This leaves B.C. as the only jurisdiction in North America with a carbon tax, and an emission reduction target twice as ambitious – 33 per cent by 2020. Because of that tax, all B.C.’s border states and provinces have an economic

emission trading system that would have levelled the North American playing field. Look for changes when Falcon tables his first budget in February. Does this mean B.C.’s climate strategy is dead? No. Delegates from U.S. states and Alberta gathered in front of the legislature to kick the tires on B.C.’s newest weapon, natural gas-powered vehicles. Garbage trucks, school buses and milk truck fleets have switched from diesel to natural gas, and thanks to its abundance and low price, they’re saving 50 per cent on fuel bills. The trucks and buses eliminate particulate pollution and reduce carbon emissions by 30 per cent compared to gasoline or diesel. Transportation Minister Blair Lekstrom says natural gas is being considered for BC Ferries, the largest public-sector emissions source of all, which is exempt from the carbon neutrality rule.

The Mission Record Thursday, November 24, 2011 7

YOUR VIEWS Editor, The Record: I voted, so I have the right to complain. I did not vote for the CRMG slate. There are some on the slate I voted for, and some off the slate I voted for. I have an issue with slate-based politics at the local level. One of these issues was realized by this last election. The CRMG slate swept the council. CRMG claim they are like-minded individuals. From where will the alternatives and differing opinions come? Discussion in council could be non-existent as all members are of like-mind. It is often during debates that alternative solutions are developed. How will this council be held accountable if there is no opposition in the group? I remember when Gordon Campbell and the Liberals almost swept the province and he did not permit opposition funding to the NDP. The outcry was unbelievable. The concern was where would the opposition come from, and who will hold them accountable. How is the result of this most recent local election any different? Another concern is that we do not have a council which is even close to

representing the cultural, social, and ethnic composition of our community, nor is there representation of the differing voices which comprise our district. Unfortunately, it appears the political landscape has been permanently changed in Mission. Now in order to become involved and successful in it, one must belong to a political organization. It is much easier for a slate to get the vote out in their favour than it is for one independent. This will continue to exclude many capable individuals from volunteering in the future since they have little chance of overcoming the odds. Fresh ideas, ideas from outside the box will likely be lost since all now on council are of like-mind. At the same time, congratulations to CRMG for getting the vote out. The result is that everyone in Mission must step up and hold this council accountable. They have made many promises and together we must ensure they provide what has been promised. Opposition and healthy debate will not come from within this group. It must come from all of us. Rod Wiens Mission

72 HOUR ROAD CLOSURE— DEWDNEY TRUNK ROAD ACROSS STAVE FALLS/BLIND SLOUGH DAM BC Hydro is replacing the existing spillway gates in the Blind Slough Dam at Stave Falls. A full 72 hour road closure of Dewdney Trunk will be required from November 30 to December 2 to hoist two of the new gates over the side of the dam and into position. We recognize the inconvenience this may cause and will complete the work as safely and efﬁciently as possible. We appreciate your patience during this work. Trafﬁc control personnel will be on site. For more information about this project, visit bchydro.com/spillway, call BC Hydro Public Consultation & Stakeholder Relations at 604 623 4472/1 866 647 3334 or email stakeholderengagement@bchydro.com.

Bylaw suggested to CRMG Editor, The Record: For those who supported my campaign for council, thank you. Although I was not elected to council, I will be submitting a draft of the CTF Taxpayer Protection Bylaw for the new mayor and council for consideration. And

considering that Team CRMG emphasized their plan to address the high rate of taxes in our community, I hope they will welcome and implement the draft bylaw as part of their promise to reduce taxes. Lee Hanlon Mission

First-degree murder appeal is dismissed BY VIKKI HOPES Black Press

A Mission man had an appeal of his first-degree murder conviction dismissed in the B.C. Court of Appeal in Vancouver on Tuesday. Jamie Robert Kokotailo, 47, was convicted by a jury in August 2009 of fatally stabbing his wife, Lori Lynn Elaine Kokotailo on Dec. 1, 2002. It was his second trial, after his first conviction in 2005 was overturned and a new trial ordered. Kokotailo received an automatic life sentence with no parole eligibility for 25 years. At his latest appeal hearing, Kokotailo’s lawyer argued that the judge in the second trial failed to give proper instructions to the jury regarding the issue of intent. The judge in that trial said that “sane and sober persons intend the natural and probable consequences of their acts,” according to court documents.

“His [Kokotailo’s] principal argument is that such an instruction should not be given when an accused is unable to recall what his or her intention was at the relevant time.” Kokotailo has maintained that he was provoked by his wife and didn’t know what he was doing at the time of the stabbing. Lori was stabbed nine times in the bedroom of the couple’s Tanaka Terrace home in Mission. Portions of the incident were witnessed by two of her four daughters. Lori was killed the night she returned from Seattle, where she was having an affair that Kokotailo said he had found out about the day before through an e-mail he discovered. In his evidence, Kokotailo said he wanted the marriage to continue and did not intend to kill Lori. He said he began to choke her when she made insulting remarks that enraged him, and testified that his next memory was of getting up off the floor and seeing

her holding a diving knife. A struggle ensued, and Kokotailo said he then recalled seeing blood everywhere. He admitted stabbing her, but that he did not remember doing so. The Crown alleged that Kokotailo had known about the affair for several days prior to the incident, and had planned the murder. Duct tape, a baseball bat and the murder weapon found in the bedroom were pointed to as evidence of his intentions. A first-degree murder conviction requires proof that planning and deliberation were involved in the killing. The three-judge appeal court panel were in agreement that the trial judge did not err in his instructions to the jury, and the appeal should be dismissed. “Based on the charge as a whole, the jury would not have been left in any doubt that it was required to consider all of the evidence,” said Justice David Frankel in the written ruling.

OCEAN BREEZE WELCOMES CAROL FREEMAN TO OUR AGENCY

604-746-0406 www.oceanbreezeholidays.com m 32535 Downes Rd, Abbotsford

The District of Mission has sent a letter to the prime minister requesting that future funding be given equal consideration between P3 (private-public partnership) and non-P3 infrastructure projects. But although the letter is dated Nov. 15, the decision to send it was made over two months ago at a Sept. 6 council meeting following a presentation by Water Watch Mission-Abbotsford (WWMA). Janet Chalmers, a WWMA member, said that was an error made by municipal workers and that outgoing Mayor James Atebe was apologetic about the delay. “It got lost in the shuffle somehow,” she said. Mission had already opted out of the Stave Lake water project back in April when Abbotsford said they would be pursuing P3 funding from PPP Canada, a federal agency created to provide up to 25 per cent of funding to public projects working within a P3 agreement. Abbotsford voted to reject the P3 portion of the project by 74 per cent on Saturday during a municipal referendum. Atebe said it wouldn’t be appropriate to comment on the democratic choice of Abbotsford, but would say the two municipalities will have to work together to determine their future water needs.

Chalmers said WWMA will now encourage the incoming mayors of both Mission and Abbotsford to jointly lobby the federal government to fund a non-P3 water solution. “That is primarily what the vote ‘no’ was. We’re not saying no water [project], we’re saying go back and get money that has no strings attached for the operation of the water,” she said. Atebe said the letter to the federal government was mainly a reminder that municipalities depend on funding from senior levels of government, and that pushing P3 didn’t make the process fair. “In the past we’ve had grants that didn’t put conditions of P3. When you’re limited to just one option you are literally compelling every municipality to use that option,” he said. But Chalmers added Mission is “back to square one” had Abbotsford kept its part of the bargain to begin with and not tried to go it alone. Chalmers said WWMA isn’t strictly opposed to future P3 options in public infrastructure projects, particularly in the design and build stage, but they don’t want a private company operating a public asset. Atebe said there are some public projects where a P3 can make sense, such as dealing with road projects like the Port Mann or Golden Ears bridges. But water is not one of those projects, said Atebe.

Operation Red Nose for MissionAbbotsford begins this weekend, providing a sober designated driver for people who have had a little too much holiday cheer. The free service, which relies on donations and volunteers, allows an inebriated person to call and have two or more ORN volunteers show up in a car. One volunteer drives the customer’s car home while the second one trails in the ORN vehicle. It’s a safe means of getting home in one piece without leaving the car behind. ORN Mission-Abbotsford is being run by PacificSport Fraser Valley, the organization to first bring the program to B.C. 16 years ago. Since then, 11 more programs have been formed to bring ORN to over 25 other communities in the province. ORN is the annual fundraiser for PacificSport and donations are used to

develop and deliver sport programs and services throughout the Fraser Valley. Half of all donations go directly to regional high-performance athletes in the form of travel and performance grants twice yearly. Last year ORN Mission-Abbotsford provided 842 safe rides home totalling 24,000 kilometres, according to coordinator Christine Scott in Abbotsford.

Varsity and JVs battle in semi-finals The Mission Secondary School varsity Roadrunners will be in semi-final action this Saturday at UBC’s Thunderbird stadium after blasting past South Delta 37-8, Nov. 19. Running back Jesse Forcier got Mission on the board in the first quarter with a 22-yard run, and the team kept South Delta scoreless until the final quarter. In the second, Kristjan Jakobs caught a 28-yard pass from Kevin Wiens, and Brenden Atkinson rushed for 10, both for touchdowns. Eric Diguistini kicked a field goal in the third, and in the final quarter of play, Atkinson scored on a six-yard rush, and Rhys Perry returned an interception 60 yards for six points. Defensively, said coach Kevin Watrin, Zac Chamberland lead with eight tackles, Daniel Orydzuk tallied seven, and Jakobs and Alex McCall racked five each. AA Provincial All-Stars Surpassing last year’s effort, seven Roadrunners have been selected as AA Provincial All-Stars. “These esteemed awards are the fruit of the Roadrunners’ hard work on and off the field since Grade 8,” said Watrin. In addition to these provincial all stars, many other talented players have been instrumental in the team’s success, he said, including the strong athletic play of Grade

11 quarterback Kevin Wiens, who is currently fourth in the province in passing yards (1,316). “Individual recognition is great, but first and foremost it is a team game, and we are focused on team accomplishments,” noted Watrin. Here are this year’s allstars: • Jesse Forcier: AA offensive MVP • Tom Clarkson: offensive lineman • Zac Chamberland: offensive lineman • Brenden Atkinson: running back • Hadley Gwyn: defensive back • Alex McCall: defensive lineman • Rhys Parry: defensive lineman. Junior varsity The Roadrunners’ junior varsity team continues to climb the ranks in step with their older brothers. The JVs played Carson Graham last night (Nov. 23) at Burnaby Lakes in the semifinal provincial match, and results were not known by The Record’s press time. Last Friday, the JVs defeated Handsworth secondary 35-6 to earn the right to face Carson. The team has already captured the conference title again this year, and is aiming to repeat its provincial win two years in a row.

Make a fly box for the angler on your list

ave you looked at a calendar lately? There is just over a month of shopping days left before Christmas, so I am putting the steelhead flies on hold for awhile, while I render some gift suggestions. Let’s begin with hand-crafted ideas: A wooden fly box is a welcome gift and not hard to assemble. To make one compile two, 2.5 cm by 20 cm strips of three mm thick strips of balsa wood; two, 2.5 cm by 10 cm strips of three mm thick strips of balsa wood; two,

10.6 cm by 20 cm pieces of two mm thick balsa wood; one, 2 cm by 9 cm section of piano hinge, and wood glue. Glue the balsa strips together to form a 10 by 20 cm rectangle. Then glue the 10.6 by 20 cm pieces to the rectangle, one on each side, to form a top and bottom. This should give you one solid box. Cut the box in half, down the center of the balsa wood sides. Join the two halves with the piano hinge. Line the inside of the box with closed cell foam.

Decorate the outside of the box with folk art and a coat of lacquer. Finish it off with a selection of your favourite flies and you are sure to please. A high-volume fly case can be made with an old brief case and some sheets of closed cell foam. Remove the lining and inner compartments, and replace them with a layer of closed cell foam. Decorate the outside of the case with fishing decals and load the inside with productive flies. - Submitted by Jeff Weltz

Sometimes it just doesn’t feel like Christmas until you hear your favourite carols and get to sing merrily along. Next Wednesday, Nov. 30, at 7 p.m. you’ll get that chance as the Mission Rotary Club hosts its annual Christmas Carol Festival at the Clarke Theatre with proceeds going to charity. This year’s festival features carol-singing from Deroche Elementary, Hatzic Elementary, Joy Vox Community Choir, ESR Elementary, Heritage Park Secondary, Hatzic Secondary, West Heights Elementary and Cherry Hill Elementary.

Matthew Good plays at the Clarke tomorrow night One of British Columbia’s most well-known recording artists, Matthew Good, will be performing for one-night only at the Clarke Theatre tomorrow at 7:30 p.m. Good is on a 37-date tour to promote his newest album Lights Of Endangered Species, his sixth solo album since he parted ways with the popular Matthew Good band in 2002. Reviews have described this album as a distinct departure from the likes of Born Losers and Last Parade, but is nevertheless stark and passionate and has resonated with fans of his music. Opening for Good is Vancouver’s Daniel Wesley, who has become popular on the west coast music scene in the past couple of years. Wesley just completed a three-province tour of Canada with KO and Rebel Emergency before joining Good. Wesley is promoting his fifth studio album, Easy Livin’. Two singles, Head Outta Water and Hello Britain continue to get good radio play. Wesley is most well-known for his 2007 breakout single Oooh Ohh (Sing and Dance album) which mixes a mellow rock-reggae sound that distinguishes his music. Tickets for Good and Wesley are available at all Ticketmaster locations, by phone 1-885-985-5000 or at www.ticketmaster.ca. Doors open at 7 p.m. and the show starts at 7:30.

What’s Happening Xmas in Mission

THE GOODNESS OF GOD God’s goodness to each of us is demonstrated through the many blessings that we receive from Him each day. Unfortunately, we may not always be aware of His goodness because we are too involved with all the concerns and the activities of the day. However, an unexpected meeting of a neighbor or friend, a telephone call from a loved one, or a warm compliment from another, are all little gifts that reflect how much our Heavenly Father loves us. Our physical and mental health, as well as our spiritual well-being, can all be attributed to God’s goodness. And God’s way of reminding us of how much we need Him. God cares for us, and being mindful of His goodness helps to strengthen us, especially when we are faced with the more difficult conditions in our lives. And, when we are faced with hard times, God’s never-ending love will help us grow and draw closer to Him. Being a positive person and seeing God’s goodness in our lives is a blessing, and He asks nothing in return, except our love, faith and trust in Him.

Your questions about the Cultural Commission calls for nominations district get answered includes description of call, location and officers available to respond. These MWTs are also used to query persons and vehicles, when conducting roadside checks, and is a tracking system that identifies where officers are at any given time – the information is critical. Problem: When officers were attending calls for service and shutting off their vehicles, they found that upon restarting their vehicles to respond to the next dispatched call, the MWT’s were

not rebooting. To avoid delays in responding to persons calling for help and ensure officer safety, officers were leaving the police vehicles running. Response: Mission RCMP approached District of Mission Fleet Services to identify the problem and offer potential solutions to address this issue. Fleet Services personnel determined the original battery installed in the police vehicles were not able to withstand the power consumption from the combined use

of the police radio, emergency lights and Mobile Work Station for extended periods of time. As a result, an extra battery pack is currently being installed in each vehicle to increase the amount of time it can be turned off with the ability for the officer to continue to use the police radio, the MWT and have emergency lights activated. This solution has resulted in the elimination of vehicle idling and reduced fuel consumption. Thank you for your question!

Tips on keeping your Help home warm and safe a kitty The winter season is the worst season for fire in Canada. That is why all Canadians must be mindful of the importance of fire prevention and safety. During the winter, we must heat our homes, most of our meals are prepared and eaten indoors, and our clothing is dried indoors as well. Winter Safety Tips Heating appliances such as space heaters should not have anything combustible close by and need at least 1 meter (3 feet) of space around them. Inspect the electrical cord attached. If it overheats you have a fire hazard. Keep children away from them. Electrical and heating systems can fail and become fire hazards. Ensure they are checked regularly by a professional, especially prior to winter season, especially when

fireplaces, heaters, and appliances and other electrical equipment are in maximum use. If even a small doubt exists about any appliance/equipment that you use, do not hesitate to contact a qualified technician. It may save your life, and the lives of your loved ones. Fireplace Safety A fireplace becomes dangerous when accumulated tar or creosote catches fire or from uncontrolled burning or overfuelling. Other causes of fireplace-related fire are substandard design or installation and lack of safety precautions. • Open the damper before lighting the fire, and keep it open until the ashes are cool enough to touch. • Ensure the fire is completely out before going to bed or leaving the house.

• Do not store combustible materials such as paper or wood too close to the fireplace. • Use a screen in front of the fireplace opening to protect children and to prevent embers from escaping and igniting carpets, etc. • Never leave children alone near a fireplace. • Use dry, wellseasoned wood in small amounts. • Have chimneys cleaned and serviced at regular intervals by a professional. • Never overload your fireplace. • Never use charcoal started fluids, gasoline or accelerants to start fires. • When using artificial logs, burn only one at a time and following instructions on the wrapping. • Always place the ashes in a metal container and take them outside the house.

Russ was predeceased by his father, Dave Bergen and brother, Gene Bergen. Russ was born in Rosthern, SK and spent the majority of his life living and working in the province.

The family would like to give a heartfelt thank-you to all the staff at Menno Hospital for their wonderful, compassionate care during the past four and half years.
