Children may leave district: chief Leq’a:mel chief is concerned about the possible closure of Deroche elementary BY JASON ROESSLE Mission Record
A local First Nations chief may tell her community to remove their children from Mission Public Schools if one of two rural sites being considered for closure shuts its doors. Leq’a:mel Chief Alice Thompson said her community is worried about the potential closure of Deroche and added if the school is merged with Dewdney elementary, she will ask her members to consider moving their kids out of the district altogether to attend either Chehalis or Seabird Island schools.
Trying to merge everyone into Dewdney would cause strife for the children, Thompson stated. As well, Dewdney is an older school undergoing seismic and heating system upgrades and Thompson thinks it odd to move kids from a relatively new school to the more aged site. An information meeting last Wednesday evening was held at Heritage Park school and introduced attendees from both rural schools to the school board’s recently released report which proposed potential closure of those sites. Jeanette Marriott, Durieu parent advisory council chair, said the meeting was informa-
tive but somewhat disappointing. The room was split into groups and asked to answer four questions provided by the school district on the quality of information presented, and if people had concerns about the data or the consultation process. “We were there to ask our own questions,” said Marriott. Each group was allowed to generate and ask two questions of Mission Public Schools and the answers are to be posted on the district’s See MEETINGS Page 4

CURB-SIDE PICK-UP
Dalton opts not to run First-term MLA decides to skip premiership race BY PHIL MELNYCHUK Black Press
The rookie MLA for Maple Ridge-Mission won’t be in the race to become the next Liberal leader and premier of B.C. “I’m not going to go for it,” Marc Dalton said. “I just feel, in the timeframe in the leadership, I couldn’t mount the campaign that I would want,” he added. “It’s not been an easy decision, to be truthful.” Dalton said last week he was considering entering the leadership contest and was fully aware of his weaknesses as candidate, one of them being his short time in office, only elected in spring 2009. “I clearly … understood it was going to be a long shot.” But just by entering the contest, he hoped to influence debate and possibly the selection of the winner. So far, George Abbott, Kevin Falcon, Moira Stillwell, Mike de Jong and Christy Clark have announced they want to be leader. The vote is being held by preferential ballot, so if he had been able to raise some support, that could
have been directed to his choice during the later rounds of voting. He also wanted to be a voice at the table to influence the debate and said he considered entering out of a sense of duty to bring forward different issues. The fact he’s sixth on the Fight HST’s list of MLAs for recall because of the Liberals’ passage of the HST also played a role. If next spring’s ccampaign is successfful, Dalton said he m may have only anoother six months in ooffice so he wanted tto raise issues while hhe could. Dalton For him, one of those is the violence and danger posed by organized crime’s marijuana-grow operations. He pointed out he brought the director of civil forfeiture to Maple Ridge last summer so police were aware of the powers under the act. Since then, there have been two local successful forfeitures of property related to the proceeds of crime. People are scared about the drug trade and having to live next to grow-ops, he added. “I am very concerned about the level of gang violence and its impact on public safety. One of my platforms, if I ran, was to make every effort to cut the number of
grow ops in three years.” Just as auto theft has been cut by targeted efforts, so too can grow operations. “I believe we can do this with grow ops and we can make our province a safer place.” The civil approach to dealing with crime is gaining greater acceptance, he said. “It’s happening. It’s starting to be used and I’d like to see that … starting to roll.” Dalton said the more people contesting for the leadership, the more voices there are in the campaign and the more people are involved, all of which is good for democracy. “It really is not about me,” he said. “What is the best thing I can do for my party, for the province.” The MLA also has other issues he’d like to have discussed as part of the leadership contest process, but didn’t want to reveal those yet. Nor would he say who he’s supporting for leader. “I think it would be better if I waited a bit and go from there.” He challenged a recent editorial questioning his possible candidacy and said his experience as a teacher and Salvation Army volunteer is precisely what does qualify him to be premier. “I’m not here to be popular. I’m not here for myself. I’m here for you guys,” he said.

MPSD needs to start talking about NLCs

strongly suggested that any consideration for potential school closure be accompanied by the immediate onset of planning” to continue developing neighbourhood learning centres (NLC) in Mission. Mission Public Schools has been using elements of NLCs in local institutions for many years, such as the West Height Inclusive Neighbourhood and StrongStart. The school district is also currently working with Fraser Valley Aboriginal Children and Family Services Society and the Ministry of Children and Families to provide services at Central elementary. But he does admit concrete action on this
website. Durieu’s main bone of contention is that the school has been working to brand itself as a traditional school, a title it earned in 2006. “Our enrolment went up with the traditional title,” she added, but unfortunately, the PAC says the school’s uniqueness has not been promoted sufficiently by the school board resulting in less enrolment.
BY JASON ROESSLE Mission Record
It’s time to start talking about enhancing services in east Mission, according to the local superintendent of schools. During Frank Dunham’s report to the board of trustees last month — where it was announced Durieu and Deroche elementary schools may face closure — he noted building a new facility or adding to an existing structure should be explored. “We need to start [talking] now and have a vision for the neighbourhood,” said Dunham. “It doesn’t hurt to investigate this now.” The superintendent’s report notes, “It is
plan will need to wait until the board decides whether or not to close the two rural schools, a decision slated to be made by February 2011. It is expected that all school districts are moving towards this inclusive approach to plan the use of new school space and including elements of Neighbourhood Learning Centres in all major renovations, new and replacement schools, according to the government NLC website. NLC schools may include many services, such as child-care programs, office space, health clinics, sports programs, seniors’ centres or family resource centres.

Search continues for Bowe BY CAROL AUN Mission Record
No signs of missing 21-year-old Josh Bowe have been found after a week of searching. Mission Search and Rescue as well as friends and neighbours of the Silverdale resident scoured the area from Mission to Deroche last week and along the railway tracks, said Arlene Fredeen, who has been looking after Bowe since he was 11 years old. He has been missing since Nov. 19. “There were lots of people looking for him,” said Fredeen. Bowe’s grandmother, Hope, is also anxiously awaiting any news. Her neighbours, who have JOSH BOWE known her grandson since he was four years old were out almost every day last week calling for him. “They’ve walked through Deroche and parts of the slough,” said Hope, who is housebound and doesn’t get out often. “They’ve found nothing. It’s like he just disappeared ... I can’t believe nobody’s seen him.” Hope notes Josh is outdoor savvy and believes he will be found safely. “I have to be hopeful,” she said. “The other choice is unthinkable.” Bowe was last seen in Deroche, and Hope says that’s as far as he goes. Family and friends are concerned about the missing man because he has trouble with his short term memory and he is known to frequently walk the train tracks from Mission to Deroche. Bowe is described as Caucasian, about 6’0” tall and very thin. He has brown eyes, long, bushy auburn hair and wears glasses. He was likely wearing a dark winter jacket, hi-top army-style boots and dark-coloured pants when he went missing. Anyone with information on Bowe’s whereabouts is asked to call Mission RCMP at 604826-7161. If you want to remain anonymous, please call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

Cautionary “horse on road” signs will be up on Stave Lake Road near the Mission Horse Club as soon as possible. Mission council unanimously approved the request Monday night without sending it to the district’s traffic safety committee for review. “That would be an unnecessary step,” said Coun. Paul Horn. “It seems to be a straight forward issue with some urgency,” added Coun. Jenny Stevens, who also suggested staff identify other areas in the community where the signs would be beneficial. While Rosalie Turcotte, treasurer of the Mission Horse Club, is pleased with council’s quick response, she hopes the signs will be educational as well as cautionary. There are some great signs in Langley around Campbell Valley Park, explained Turcotte. “They’re not just a caution sign, there’s an explanation underneath about why people need to be cautious.” People who are not used to being around horses don’t know that when horses are scared, their instinct is to flee — that’s dangerous for both the

THE MISSION RECORD – THURSDAY, DECEMBER 9, 2010
OPINION
Published and printed by Black Press Ltd. at Mission at 33047 First Ave., V2V 1G2
Leaders did right Politics in B.C. has always been a take-no-prisoners bloodsport. For proof, one need look no further than the bookend resignations of Gordon Campbell and Carole James. Neither wanted to give up their posts as Liberal and NDP leaders; both were almost forced out by a small band of dissidents and provincial polling that suggested they had outstayed their welcome. The two deserve credit for showing leadership where it was needed by stepping down early enough in the election cycle for the two parties to rebuild, and the province benefited from both their strengths. Campbell was innovative and made some great leaps forward in acknowledging climate change and the steps needed to reverse it; James was collaborative and willing to reach out to sectors not usually friends of NDP, such as small business. But both faced challenges from insiders who felt a new brand was necessary for the parties to revive before the May 2013 election. James was criticized for being dull, unimaginative and slow to take advantage of Liberal gaffes; Campbell was denounced as out of touch and dictatorial. In the end, both leaders faced the impossible task of trying to win over critics and reunite their parties. In the final analysis, some may say Carole James was as much a victim of the harmonized sales tax decision as Gordon Campbell. James failed to gain mileage from this much-hated public policy compared to Bill Vander Zalm, who managed to revive his reputation. While he fed the media a daily diet of blistering attacks against the HST, James offered a less exciting but possibly more realistic option to renegotiate the deal. She could hardly be heard over the din. Now, B.C. voters will finally have their say on the HST and a new political era. But don’t expect politics in Lotusland to get any less nasty. – The Tri-City News

NDP as Monty Python sketch I n their classic movie Life of Brian, the British comedy troupe Monty Python spoofs a crumbling Roman Empire and its disorganized enemies. Among those foes is the People’s Front for Judea, determined to bring the empire down and free its victims. Alas, it finds itself locked in a bitter rivalry with a splinter group calling itself the Judean People’s Front. The huddling, oppressed Judeans themselves aren’t much helped by their constant, pointless in-fighting. The resemblance to today’s B.C. political scene is striking. Emperor Gordon the Green is marking his final days. Plotters in his own Senate have sheathed their knives only now that he has agreed to speed his chariot to the exit. His taxes have so enraged the peasantry, there are fears that only his Convention Coliseum and Great Road to Whistler will be left to mark his reign. And what does the opposition do, even as the torches and pitchforks of a people’s militia clear a broad path to the throne? It finds itself

Our Province Our Future has a discussion paper that ends with a series of important questions, such as “What can be done to generate a shift toward high value-added production?” There are lots of questions, but I didn’t find any answers. The Baker’s Dozen split with James began with the expulsion of Cariboo North MLA Bob Simpson. His crime was to say that seven years into her leadership, James offers few ideas. Gordon Campbell’s problem was having too many ideas. His record for cabinet reorganizations alone should stand for all time. The NDP still looks like a front group for public-sector unions and not much else.

Donations would save FVHS Hydro should not hand out contracts to private businesses Editor, The Record: Re: Humane society doors may close, Nov. 25 edition. Staff and Volunteers at the Fraser Valley Humane Society work tirelessly caring for abandoned cats and finding new homes for them. Need a good gift idea for someone this Christmas? Why not make a donation in their name to the FVHS? Your friends and family will likely appreciate that far more than some tie or bath soap that will sit gathering dust in the closet. Give something that really matters and get a tax receipt, too! There are well over 30,000 people in Mission. If just 500 people gave $20 each that would raise $10,000 for the care of these cats. Think of how many cats could be saved if we all gave just a little! Every donation counts. Cathy Hamm Mission
Editor, The Record: I am continually appalled by the forage of private industry into publicly-owned assets such as rivers, land, etc. Again an article in The Mission Record Nov. 25, 2010 indicates that our publicly owned BC Hydro has taken it upon themselves to award contracts to private corporations to go around the province and construct whatever they deem necessary on pristine fish-bearing rivers, in order to produce power. There is no question that this is one way to produce power but there other ways as well. However, publicly

Neglect perceived to be perpetuated Editor, The Record: The rallying call, “Unity in challenging times” goes to all progressive seniors who are poised to create a “seniors renaissance” in Mission. Seniors must speak in one strong united voice for all to commence meaningful dialogue. I joined Mission Seniors Centre Association and served a year on the board because I knew I could help, wanted to help and how better than from the inside. For nearly a year a topic on the monthly MSCA executive agenda was,
“when will the seniors activity sign be affixed on the building?” Then one day, nearly a year to the day, there it was. This token gesture implied the building was a designated seniors activity centre but in fact, council decided to rename the building “Mission Community Activity Centre” and this sign merely implied seniors continued as one tenant. So, having decided to ignore the retained consultant’s recommendation to designate the complete building as a seniors activity centre, council arbitrarily de-
cides to give them a bone in the form of a partially furnished lounge, some kitchen renovations, add a stove and replace the dishwasher. The MSCA board have no pro-active plans, rather it will be “to consolidate activities to demonstrate need” over the next year or so. This is totally unacceptable to many seniors. Anything less than designating the facility a seniors activity centre, seven days per week, at the discretion and use of a seniors governance committee, is perceived to perpetuate neglect.

The needs of seniors are not a few hours per day, as loneliness is 24 hours. One must place the needs and concept of an activity centre in context and from the perspective of seniors. They should be able to drop by any time, seven days per week, to have a snack, watch some TV, play a few games, undertake some hobbies and crafts, attend a scheduled health clinic and other activities. They could maybe tend a small gar-
den outside or sit on a bench in a garden and watch birds. But this cannot be achieved under existing, limited conditions of use. Many seniors would like to enjoy the activity centre in their lifetime. I say shame on our council for failing to recognize seniors who built Mission, by at long last, giving them the building to use as an activity centre. George F. Evens Mission

owned resources such as fish-bearing rivers or waterways of any kind, must not be contracted out for development by private corporations, whose ultimate aim is to produce monetary benefits. First of all, if producing power on run-of-river facilities is a moneymaking venture, why on earth is BC Hydro not capable of doing the job on behalf of citizens? Just what is the problem with those in charge of BC Hydro who see nothing wrong with giving contracts to private business so they can go around our province building structures which may or may not cause casualties to fish and other wildlife? According to the mentioned article at the beginning of this letter, the comments by Graham Horn, the vicepresident of one of the
run-of-river firms that have been awarded contracts by BC Hydro, are chilling indeed. When asked if their company is altering the natural course of waterways or whether it affects salmon habitat. The answer was “yes” to both questions, “but they will try to avoid it ... and compensate for it...” This situation is unacceptable. BC Hydro officials should do the job required from within our publicly owned facility, and not hand out contracts to numerous private firms whose main purpose is to make a profit when selling the energy produced back to BC Hydro. We must not continue to destroy our shrinking natural public assets so that private business can make a profit. Lila Rauh Mission

THE MISSION RECORD – THURSDAY, DECEMBER 9, 2010
No sign car was speeding Donations being collected for family From SIGNS Page 5
When you’re driving down a road and you see a horse, slow down and give a wide berth when possible, she advised. Turcotte, who drives her horse and carriage often says everyone needs to share the road. “I have had everything horrible done to me by motorists,” she said. “I’ve had people go past me so close and so fast if I leaned out of my buggy I can touch the car.” Turcotte says she’s lucky her horse is traffic safe, but motorists can’t
tell if a horse is used to being on the road or not. “I’ve done a lot of work on the road with my horse,” but even a seasoned horse can be scared. Turcotte added while it is important for motorists to take note, horse riders also have a responsibility to be safe as well. “When we’re riding on the road, there are rules we follow too.” Horse riders should always ride the same direction as traffic, wear a safety vest, and Turcotte even has a slow moving vehicle sign on the back
of her carriage. “There’s responsibility on both sides. Riders have to be responsible for their horse, themselves and others on the road.” The call for signs was initiated by Laurie Sherman after one of the horses she boarded was recently killed when it unexpectedly ran out of the riding ring and onto the road where it was fatally hit by a large vehicle. There was no indication the driver was speeding and the incident is still under investigation.
Santa Train
Pulls for a Great Cause
A 28-year-old Mission father was killed last Thursday morning at a condo development in Coal Harbour after being hit by a concrete form. Dan Martens was a carpenter and had been employed in
commercial level construction for nearly a decade. He leaves behind his wife Tamara and their four children. Project general contractor Ledcor closed the work site at Three Harbour Green while
WorkSafeBC investigated and said it would conduct its own internal review as well. Donations are being collected and information can be found at www.svcc.ca. A Facebook page in his memory has also started.
Gardens policy to be drafted From SECOND Page 5
goals set. Some of the food is donated to the food bank, and some is sold at the Mission City Farmers Market with proceeds going to friends and family of homicide victims, said Edmunds-Flett. It was at the Soapbox Community Garden where EdmundsFlett met the Second and James site property owners. They live in Vancouver and have offered to “donate the [use of the] land to the district which would sublease it to LINC for the garden,” she explained. “The only thing is when it’s time for [the owners] to develop, we would remove the garden.”
Edmunds-Flett asked the municipality for the same amenities it provides for the Soapbox Community Garden, such as a water source, electricity and fencing, when she addressed council Monday evening. She also asked council to develop a community garden policy and offered to help. While council was receptive to the idea of a second community garden, members were cautious about using private property. “I like the concept very much, but I’m concerned about permissive taxes,” said Coun. Jenny Stevens. “While the soapbox garden is on municipal land, this is private land being lent to you, not
given to you. I’d be very leery of extending the permissive tax exemption because you’re enabling someone to avoid paying taxes on land that will be developed.” When the district grants a tax exemption, the cost is passed on to other residents, Stevens added. Regardless of whether or not a tax exemption is granted, Edmunds-Flett says LINC, a nonprofit organization, will still issue a tax receipt to the property owners equivalent to rental costs. Council directed district staff to work with LINC on the feasibility of creating a garden on the property in question and will work on drafting a community gardens policy.

Mission firefighters doused a house fire at this Hurd Street residence Monday night, the same home police entered in mid-November executing a search warrant and found weapons and an explosive device. RECORD FILE PHOTO
Hurd Street home burns A fire broke out in a house in which Mission RCMP found weapons and an explosive device in mid-November. Mission Fire/Rescue Service responded to a structure fire call shortly after 11 p.m. Monday in the 7400 block of Hurd Street. The fire was contained to one room and firefighters were on scene for just over two hours.
When Mounties and the regional Emergency Response Team executed a search warrant in the home on Nov. 15 after someone reported an assault and theft, four people were taken into custody, including the homeowner. Police found firearms, knives, swords a small amount of drugs and an explosive device that was not live.

Resource Society now runs Victim Services BY CAROL AUN Mission Record
The Women’s Resource Society of the Fraser Valley (WRSFV) is the new contractor overseeing operations for Victim Ser-
vices. It’s business as usual, said Pamela Wallis, WRSFV executive director, about the volunteerbased organization. WRSFV has been managing Victim Services
(VS) since Oct. 1 when it took over the contract from Mission Community Services Society, which announced earlier this year it didn’t have the resources to manage the program.
Need extra cash for Christmas?
“Our work is about supporting victims, mostly women and children, but we support males from time to time,” said Wallis. “This is similar work to what we’re already doing.” VS is jointly funded by the provincial government and District of Mission. The provincial government made sure the new contractors understood what had to be done and made the transition as easy as possible, said Wallis. The District of Mission has also been supportive. When MCSS pulled out, it left the program without a

there late at night when an accident has happened or during the day looking after workplace incidents. In 2009-10, VS worked 156 active files, looked after 367 clients and contributed 11,247 volunteer hours. We get about 10-15 calls each month, said VS coordinator Gina Lehmberg. Volunteers get called out by the RCMP and work in teams of two. Sometimes providing practical assistance can be as simple as driving a client to a friend’s house or shelter, and other times, in more serious cases, they will go to the hospital and help with legal arrangements. VS volunteers are trained to deal with a range of situations from sudden deaths to crime victims. They offer help and support to people distraught, vulnerable and in shock and stay with the victim until the case closes. The volunteers will make referrals to other agencies, if necessary, or lead clients through a court process. They are trained extensively, undergoing a sixmonth course and passing detailed background checks. The next training program starts in January, said Lehmberg.

After thrilling the crowd at the Candlelight Parade Friday night (see page 14) he also made an appearance Saturday at Fraser Valley Humane Society’s pet photo shoot (above left) and the following day rode Mission’s antique fire engine to the Norma Kenney House at the Fraser River Heritage Park. While at the park he visited with the children and listened to their Christmas wishes. BOB FRIESEN PHOTOS

THE MISSION RECORD – THURSDAY, DECEMBER 9, 2010
Once rescued, suspect handcuffed and arrested O nce again, I am dismayed that a resident of this community has attracted the attention of violent criminals and has left us — the police — picking
up the pieces, and you — the taxpayer — paying the bills. In the early morning hours of Monday, Nov. 29, we responded to a call for assistance from
a residence located in a rural area of Mission. On attendance our officers walked into an armed robbery/home invasion in progress. Our people quickly
apprehended one suspect but a number of others fled, discarding loaded firearms in their flight from police. Efforts to apprehend them at that time were not success-
ful. After the homeowner was rescued and freed from his restraints, we then arrested him for the illegal drug operation ongoing in his residence.
There are violent people who arm themselves and who are prepared to take extreme measures to take whatever they want from others. I understand that and

as police officers we stand ready to intervene in the protection of our citizens. But what I don’t understand is how some people think they can pply their rrisky crimiinal trade while w eexpecting eemergency rrespondWalsh eers to put their lives at risk to protect them. Those responders include firefighters and paramedics, as well as police. The people who seek profit by illegally trafficking in cannabis not only put others at risk but they are also costing the taxpayer a significant amount of money. In addition to being offenders, those people also become victims. Much police time and money is spent conducting robbery, aggravated assault and homicide investigations as a byproduct of their criminal greed and enterprise. For this reason alone, those involved in the criminal drug trade can expect us to continue to investigate their activities to the full extent of the law. So don’t be surprised when after having rescued someone from armed invaders, that we then arrest and prosecute that person. Insp. Pat L. Walsh is the officer in charge of Mission RCMP detachment.

Mission Record
Perfection. It’s not often an entire season can be summed up in one word, but for the Mission Roadrunners, that one word works. The junior varsity football squad completed its perfect, no-loss season with a 33-8 rout over the John Barsby Bulldogs in the AA provincial finals Saturday. “It was a physical game and we managed to break a couple big ones which really turned the tide,” said coach John Kapty. It was a handful of big plays that made the difference. The game was sitting at 14-8 for Mission at halftime at Empire Field, but the second half started with the Roadrunners returning two interceptions the length of the field for touchdowns. “All year that’s how our offence has worked. We’re a speed team and we just
look to try to get those big plays,” said Kapty. The ecstatic coach said game-planning also played a factor. “They don’t have a lot of tricks on their offence. They’re big and strong and they come at you and that’s sort of the challenge. “We knew what they were going to do, it was just a matter of can we match their toughness and stop it.” Kevin Wiens, Mission’s quarterback, was named the game’s most valuable player and Kapty was all praises for his team leader. “He’s got track-star speed. As a coach, I say when in doubt, give it to the fast kid.” Wiens rushed for 110 yards and put up two touchdowns on offense, with seven tackles and an 80-yard interception return touchdown while playing defense. Mitchell MacAulay scored on a 65yard kickoff return touchdown, answering immediately to the only Bars-
by score. “When they got that two-point convert to go ahead 8-7, it was the first time we had trailed all season long,” noted Kapty. “Mitchell’s touchdown was a huge play to get us back the momentum immediately.” Defensive end Nicholas Jacobse was named the game’s top lineman with three tackles and 2.5 sacks. Running back/ linebacker Evan Horton was named top back in the game, rushing for 81 yards on offense and scoring on a 58-yard interception return defensively. Horton also had six tackles. “We’ve been a big play team all year, and today four of our touchdowns came from more than 50 yards out,” said Kapty. He said his team’s results, along with the varsity’s second place finish provincially and the Grade 8 team making it to the semi-finals proves Mission secondary is, after eight years, proving it has put together a top-class football program.
Midget Mission Niners lose in finals to Victoria After placing seventh in league standings, then trouncing two tough teams, the Niners made it to the finals BY JASON ROESSLE Mission Record
They were never expected to get far this year. But the midget Mission Niners kept plugging away week after week until they found themselves in the provincial finals last weekend against the number-eight ranked Victoria Spar-
tans, ultimately losing to the Island, 24-20. After being panned at the start of the season, the seventh-ranked squad climbed to the top and fought back from the rough beginning to stack some big wins against tough teams, said coach Brent Fairweather. “We had our ups and downs,” he admitted about the season, including some personnel
changes, “but we managed to come together as a team.” The Mission team fought the Spartans Sunday in Langley at McLeod Stadium and after putting a touchdown on the board first, the Victoria group hammered back taking a 17-7 lead at the half. The Niners scored once more but it was Spartans quarterback Mike Dumesnil’s 55-yard
connection with Croby Stewart that sealed Mission’s fate and earned Victoria its first provincial title since 2000. “It was a real close one and we were probably the favourites,” said Fairweather. “We did a lot of great and right things ... but we didn’t get our bounces. “They’re still champions in my mind.”

Seating begins at 6:30 p.m.
and as the audience begins to fill the theatre, for the next 25 minutes they will be treated to the sounds of the renowned 25-piece Abbotsford Concert Band, under the direction of Shannon Goldsmith. At 7 p.m. the lights will go down and the show takes off. Making their first appearance at the event, Mission’s own Joy Vox Community Choir, directed by Liisa Nes-

Hercules opens Enjoy the Winter Harmony this week at ONT For its fourth year running, Opening Nite Theatre Society, Mission’s own community theatre, is proud to present this year’s Christmas pantomime, Hercules. If you aren’t familiar with the term pantomime, don’t worry, you are not alone, and no, it doesn’t have those odd clowns that can’t speak. A pantomime is a British theatre tradition held during the holiday season; they are kid-friendly but far from kid-exclusive as people of all ages are sure to get a thrill from this ridiculous foray into the impossible. Written and directed by Opening Nite’s talented Camille Knight, Hercules the Panto tells the tale of, you guessed it, Hercules and his friends, Perseus and Princess Ambrosia, as they struggle to thwart the dastardly plans of the evil Medusa who is being backed by the equally evil, though not as ugly, Fairy Naughty. Hercules’ first attempt to stop the snake-headed villain meets with disastrous results and provokes
Hercules into isolation on the Island of Myth-fits, where he finds a three-eyed Cyclops, a backwards centaur and an Oracle who smells the future. With the world’s population being turned to stone by the enterprising Fairy Naughty and Medusa at an alarming rate, Fairy Nice arrives and convinces Perseus and Princess Ambrosia they must find Hercules in order to save the world. The show features a wide assortment of crazy characters played by a wide assortment of talented actors.

THE MISSION RECORD – THURSDAY, DECEMBER 9, 2010
What’s Happening in Mission
WORK WITH DEVOTION There is an old story, perhaps apocryphal, about an architect asking the workmen at a cathedral what they were doing. With tired voices, most replied that they were mixing mortar, moving supplies, or setting bricks; however, one young man enthusiastically replied that he was building a cathedral. What a difference it makes when we see our work in the context of something bigger and much nobler. Although we may euphemistically just be mixing mortar that is an integral part of building the cathedral. When St. Francis was a young man and was struggling over what to do with his life, he had a conversation experience while praying in an old church. He heard God tell him to rebuild “My church,” and taking this message literally, he set to work repairing the decrepit old church. Before long, others joined him in the work and decided to follow his charismatic example of trying to live the gospel as literally as possible. Only then, did it become clear that the noble work of rebuilding this small church was part of the larger work of rebuilding the spiritual church. Creation is the ongoing work of God in the world, and we are all called to be coworkers in this great work. So, whatever you do for a living, realize that it is part of a much larger project than it might first appear. It is larger than mixing mortar, or even than building a church. Indeed it is even larger than rebuilding the spiritual church of God; for we are all engaged in the ongoing work of creation itself. Whatever your task, work heartily, as serving the Lord and not men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward... R.S.V. Colossians 3: 23-24

Our Town opens at Mission secondary tonight One of the most renowned and performed plays in America’s history is being performed by Mission secondary’s drama department. Our Town by Thornton Wilder is a timeless piece with three acts which walk us through the daily lives of a precious community, much like our own, introducing us to its young and old, and inviting us to embrace their human condition. Set at the turn of the 20th century, Wilder’s message prevails: Take the time to stop and smell the roses; Life is precious and its tenuousness escapes us when we take it for granted. The show stars Grade 12 student Alex Rake as the stage manager and Krystal Mark as Emily Webb, around whom the story revolves. Rake’s role is an ambitious part with a lot of memorization, but he has been involved with the drama department since Grade 9 and looks forward to putting on a good show. Rake is also a talented musician who received an honourable mention in the recent high school singer/songwriter contest on CBC. Mark has also been involved with drama since Grade 9 and has performed in past productions. She is coupled with Grade 11 actor Brandon Lordin, who plays George Gibbs, her boyfriend and eventually her husband. Lordin is a faithful member of the drama team and is most notable as a Shakespearean actor in Mission’s spring productions. Some supporting actors in the show are Piper MacLeod as the mother of George, Derrick Hall as her husband Dr. Gibbs, and Caroline Doyle and Peter Dale as Emily’s parents. Our Town is being performed Dec. 9, 10 and 11 at Mission secondary’s studio theatre. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. and the show starts at 7 p.m. Tickets are only $5 each and available by calling 604-826-7191. Tickets will also be sold at the door subject to availability.

THE MISSION RECORD – THURSDAY, DECEMBER 9, 2010
The Mission Chamber of Commerce
Reduction strategies: Is the investment working? Mission RCMP jurisdiction
I
n 2006, the Mission RCMP, under the leadership of Insp. Pat L. Walsh, undertook a crime reduction strategy that has been successful despite the increasing demands of a growing population. Using Sir Robert Peel’s principles as a framework for delivery, the Mission detachment is based on a proactive concentration in three areas: crime causation, high crime areas and habitual offenders. Noting that most crime can be attributed to the same five per cent of repeat offenders, the RCMP is strategic in allocation of resources to further their model. In 2009, a civilian crime analyst was added to the team to further pinpoint hot spots of activity for a targeted approach in identifying high crime zones. Once identified, the beat cops play an integral part by narrowing the suspects involved. The goal is to be effective in charging those responsible for the bulk of crime in Mission. It can be argued crime statistics can be subjective however, Walsh is clear that the ability to tackle more ongoing issues that create arrest results impacts the crime statistics in a positive way. Since the implementation, reported incidents are in decline while arrests are up. Criminal code offenses show a decline of 38 per cent since 2004 in the re-
gional profile produced by the Ministry of Public Safety and Solicitor General of BC. While drug offenses in the statistics are up, this can be accounted for by an increased arrest rate. Walsh believes the beat constables factor largely into this success. Mission is broken into four regions: west of Wren (A), Downtown (B), residential above Third Avenue and Hatzic (C) and the provincial area east of Shook Road (D). Each region has its specific issues and endemic problems that the beat constables understand and can identify easily. Given demographic growth and the need to meet minimum strengths, the RCMP detachment just meets required staffing to maintain its strategic plan. The provincial agreement with the RCMP is set to be negotiated next year for renewal in 2012. The outcome of the negotiation will impact the municipal policing budget. Discussion over the next months will be highly politicized given the provincial political landscape. It will be important to understand this topic, its impact on the municipal budget and the value we place on living in a civil society. Walsh will be speaking at the Dec. 16 Chamber luncheon with regard to the crime reduction strategy as well as other hot policing topics. Contact Angel at 604-826-6914 to reserve your seat.

Mission Restorative Resolutions Now Recruiting Volunteers!!! At this time of year we are often reminded of the fundamental values we all hold dear such as harmony, connection, mattering, belonging, giving, and sharing.
Information on PSIT In May of 2006, the province amended the Safety Standards Act to allow local governments to request electrical consumption information from BC Hydro. Excessive hydro consumption is often an indicator of a serious safety hazard. Only properties that exceed a specific threshold of hydro

use are reviewed. The information can then be used by municipalities to proactively deal with potential risks identified through the inspection process. This is the foundation upon which a municipal public safety inspection team (PSIT) in Mission operates. It should
be noted that there are a number of municipalities with a PSIT. The District of Mission adopted a Controlled Substance Property Bylaw which sets out the framework under which its public safety inspection team operates. The PSIT team consists of a fire inspector,

building inspector and electrician, and is supported by two office staff. Once the hydro consumption data has been obtained properties with potential electrical safety concerns are identified. Research of municipal and provincial records is conducted to ascertain any legitimate explanation for the excessive hydro use. If no information is found which would account for the high consumption, the registered owner, and tenant where applicable, are contacted by PSIT and a public safety inspection is scheduled. During the inspection, any electrical system deficiencies are noted as well as any contravention of the Building Code, Fire Services Act or other applicable legislation related to the health, safety and protection of persons or property. Where the inspectors determine that a property is in contravention of the Controlled Substance Property bylaw, an inspection fee of $4,900 plus an administration fee of $300 is charged. Inspectors also have the discretion in serious cases to place a “Do Not Occupy” order on the property which prohibits persons from occupying the dwelling. Inspectors may also request that BC Hydro disconnect power to the property where, in the inspectors’ opinion, an imminent fire or safety hazard exists. The owner will be required to remediate any deficiencies noted as a result of the inspection and to call for a final inspection to show that the required work has been completed and that the property has been fully remediated. By charging these inspection fees, the program is able to run without funding from municipal taxation. The inspection fees collected are used to fund the program and are not used as a revenue source for the district. The district’s fees are similar in amount to a number of other municipalities.

THE MISSION RECORD – THURSDAY, DECEMBER 9, 2010
Update: Cedar Street between Cherry and Tunbridge The Cedar Street road widening project is currently under construction and road closures will continue until first lift of asphalt paving is in place. The road closures have been required to ensure public safety due to various potential hazards including open excavations, exposed streetlight bases in the road centerline, power poles in travelling lanes, and active utility company operations. The first lift of pavement will be in place as soon as we have two to three days of temperature above zero and no heavy rain. The contractor is on a standby for these weather conditions. Once the first lift of pavement is placed,
then the median will be poured which will take another two to three days work after which will allow us to open to lanes traffic. Hopefully given the weather condition we will have two lanes open to traffic by Dec. 10. Cold temperatures have delayed the installation of concrete and asphalt as the air must be above zero and the ground must be frost free prior to placement. Underground storm, water and sanitary works have been installed and are currently functioning, curbs on both sides have been installed, and the road base is in place. BC Hydro transmission poles
relocation (west side) is complete. New power poles (east side) are
installed however the transfer of service from old poles to the new
poles are still to be completed, and Telus and Shaw services
