Council welcomes new staff sergeant

Hope council welcomed the new leader of the Hope RCMP at their regular council meeting, Monday, March 28. Staff Sergeant Suki Manj brings with him a wealth of experience and an appreciation for small communities. He officially takes over for retiring Staff Sergeant Dale Kjemhus in June. “Thank you mayor and council, I’m excited to come,” said Manj, who has most recently been in command of the plain-clothes investigation division of the Upper Fraser Val l ey re g iona l detachment. That position has given him prior insight into Hope’s

community policing office, working behind the scenes with local plain-clothes officers on major cases. “I am very much community oriented,” added Manj, already taking the time to meet with many community leaders in order to learn about the issues that most concern area residents. I think the public p e rc e p t i o n (of policing) is usually the same, and we as managers of the RCMP work to achieve balance between a community’s policing needs, an eager young force “looking for the world,” and the reality of a community’s fiscal restraints. “I am looking forward to the opportunity to lead such a young group of people,” said Manj. And although Manj has only been on the force for fifteen years, young officers will have the chance to glean a lot from his wealth of policing experience. After graduating from the RCMP training depot, the now Staff Sergeant was first posted to the Mission Detachment, moving up to the position of general investigator within a few years.

He then moved onto the Integrated National Security Enforcement Te a m (INSET) shortly after the 911 terrorist attacks in 2001. With INSET, Manj was trained in wire-tap applications, sur veillance, the development of information sources, and has worked with CSIS, the FBI and NCIS. He returned to the lower mainland as a supervising corporal with the Surrey detachment, also working with the Surrey serious crime section and as acting senior patrol NCO. He moved onto his position with the Upper Fraser Valley Detachment in 2007. “With two years of business management certification under his belt (prior to entering the RCMP), council is also confident that he appreciates the financial restraints the district is under,” said Mayor Laurie French. “I am looking forward to working with him.” Manj resides in Rosedale, with his wife, a Corporal with the Upper Fraser Valley Detachment, and their two children.

Only a sucker would pay their speeding ticket without a fight now. That’s the street wisdom circulating on web discussion forums where motorcycle and car enthusiasts trade tips on how to beat their traffic violation tickets in B.C.’s congested courts. They point to the case of Michael Podger. The Kelowna heavy equipment salesman was ticketed by police in November 2007 for making an illegal lane change without signalling. He disputed the ticket, but delays in the court system dragged the case until January of 2009, when Podger – representing himself – successfully persuaded a judge to toss out his ticket on the grounds that his right to justice within a reasonable time had been violated. Since then others – often repeat speeders – have been boning up on constitutional law to challenge their own tickets. If it takes longer than 10 months for their ticket dispute to be heard, they can make a strong case for a judicial stay of proceedings, citing Podger’s case and other rulings as precedent. It’s not necessarily a slam dunk. Challengers have to prove they were ready to proceed on each appearance date – in other words it was the system, not their own foot-dragging, to blame for the delay. They also have to show they suffered prejudice from the delay. The judge in Podger’s case agreed he experienced stress and was deprived of three days of pay when he took time off work to prepare his case and attend court. Podger was reluctant to be interviewed by Black Press, but said he’s used the delay argument several times to persuade authorities to cancel his traffic tickets. He’s also coached more than a dozen other motorists on how to use the case law. “Most of the time it gets stayed,” Podger said. “I’m the only one that’s had to go fight it that I know of.” Surrey lawyer Daryl

Brown, who gave him some advice, said Podger is far from the only driver beating tickets on the basis of unacceptable delays. “More people are becoming aware of the ability to make these arguments,” he said. “You’ve got guys who aren’t first-timers,” Brown added. “They’ve got a few tickets. And they’re looking at losing their licence if they get any more.” ••• The jam up of traffic tickets is just one more symptom of a court system in crisis in B.C. By 2010, an immense backlog of 58,000 disputed traffic tickets had built up. The Provincial Court of British Columbia, in its Justice Delayed report, blamed staff cuts at the ticket-processing centre in downtown Vancouver for the clog, because there aren’t enough employees to input the data and schedule dispute hearings. Officials at B.C.’s Ministry of Attorney General claim the problem is in decline, with the backlog easing to 52,000 tickets as of January 2011. But ICBC statistics show the number of traffic tickets being disputed has steadily crept up – from about 11 per cent up until 2007 to

15 per cent in 2010. More than 75,000 violations were disputed last year – 20 per cent more than five years earlier. They add to the pressure on traffic courts, where Justices of the Peace (JPs) hear most challenges, and also to a lesser degree to the caseload of regular provincial court judges, who must hear any challenges based on delay because JPs can’t rule on constitutional matters. “The ministry is aware of the backlog and is considering its options for ways to reduce it,” said attorney general ministry spokesperson Linda Mueller. More staff to enter tickets and schedule hearings would help, she said, but staffing priority goes to the areas of greatest need – criminal cases and serious civil or family law cases. ICBC officials note more than 60 per cent of tickets disputed are upheld in court, although that’s down from 68 per cent found guilty five years ago. And when ticket challengers win, B.C. municipalities lose out. Cities get $63 million a year in traffic fine revenues shared by the province to help with policing costs. Surrey alone receives $5.9 million annually. •••

It’s not just traffic ticket dodgers who might otherwise take their lumps and pay up who are emboldened by delays in the system. Accused criminals and the defence lawyers who represent them increasingly see a good chance to quash cases based on delay, particularly when they see their trial date set 16-plus months away and stacked with multiple other trials on the same day. There’s less incentive to plead guilty – even when the case against the accused looks air-tight – or accept an early plea bargain offer from Crown unless it’s attractive. The Justice Delayed report warned the growing case backlog and lengthening delays mean defence lawyers are more motivated to proceed to trial because of the potential for charges to get thrown out over delay and, if the case does go to trial, it becomes harder to prove older allegations as witnesses become harder to round up or their memories fade. “The best defence here is to set the thing for trial,” said Samiran Lakshman, president of the B.C. Crown Counsel Association. “Why would you plead guilty in that environment? That same type of analysis and advice is being provided across the province.” Fewer cases being resolved early mean even more pressure is piled on a system already creaking under intense backlogs. “It’s a bit of a catch-22 for the system,” Surrey defence lawyer Marvin Stern said. “The system starts using its resources in hearing these delay applications.” Stern said delays have worsened over the past year. He sometimes shows up to court in Surrey to find his client is one of four trials slated to go ahead in the same courtroom that day. Prosecutors then must decide which trial will proceed and adjourn the rest. That can mean another trial date – sometimes the third one to be set – 20 months or more after charges were laid, a time period that provides strong grounds for dismissal. To avoid that outcome, prosecutors may offer a better plea bargain. Continued on pg. 8

WALMART CORRECTION NOTICE

New operator awarded contract for municipal campsite The Hope Standard

Hope council has awarded the contract for operation of the district-owned Coquihalla campsite to Holiday Trails and Resorts. The major recreational campsite company owns or operates campsites throughout British Columbia, Alberta and Washington State. Locally, they own and operate the new Sunshine

Valley RV Resort, as wells as Camperland RV resort in Bridal Falls. “One of the assets they bring with them is a huge marketing capacity,” said Mayor Laurie French. And “they are talking about bringing our campground up to some pretty high standards.” Council has granted the company a 10-year operating contract, with the company’s promise of investing $150,000 in capital improvements, including upgrades to the

washrooms and other facilities. The company will also continue to pay the taxes on the property of approximately $9,000 per year. “We are hoping that in the future the business will build to include higher revenues to the district through profit sharing,” said French, who insisted that the final contact, currently under development, contains a re-evaluation clause and a requirement to submit yearly financial statements.

The campsite is expected to retain its BC Parks natural style, offering the company’s membership and the public an alternative to their more formally set out RV parks, added French. Although the Holiday Trails is membership driven private company, the Coquihalla Campground will remain a public facility, assures French. The Coquihalla Campground will be managed by Hope resident Mike Barker.

Auxiliary RCMP ofﬁcer spots wire thief suspect in action Two Hope residents may be facing theft charges thanks to an alert off-duty auxiliary RCMP member. The auxiliary officer was driving through the Yale tunnel, on Wednesday, March 30, when they “noticed a

male on foot in the tunnel ripping away wire,” said Const. Tracy Wolbeck. RCMP members were able to pull over a vehicle matching the auxiliary officer’s description on Highway 1.

A “duffle bag containing wire was found a short distance from the tunnel,” added Wolbeck. “Theft of wire is becoming a real problem in the community,” said Wolbeck. “This is a good example of

the hard work the police are putting into stopping this type of crime.” The names, of the 41 year-old male and the 33 year-old male suspects, were not released, pending charges.

News Adamson eyes NDP nomination in Chilliwack-Hope By Robert Freeman Black Press

Dennis Adamson, electoral area director for Yale at the Fraser Valley Regional District, has announced he’s seeking the New Democratic Party’s nomination in the provincial Chilliwack-Hope riding. Adamson has been an outspoken advocate for Chilliwack residents opposed to “conflict gravel” operations in the region, the

same constituency as Chilliwack River Valley resident Glen Thompson is counting on to support his bid for the NDP nomination. While Thompson has also been an outspoken critic of gravel removal operations, Adamson said he believes that he has the government experience to make a difference as MLA, if he wins the NDP nomination and goes on to take the riding currently held by BC Liberal MLA Barry Penner.

“I just feel I’m qualified (to run for provincial elected office) … and I love it. I think I’ve found my calling.” Dennis Adamson FVRD Area B director “The fact is I’ve had some experience doing the job as electoral area director, with a $13-million budget to look after,” he said. Adamson said he sits on 13 FVRD committees, including the Hope airpark and recreation

commissions and the Fraser Valley Treaty Commission, “and I’ve spent the last three years serving the people.” In that time, Adamson said he’s travelled some 34,000 kilometres around the region,

and spent “countless hours” pouring over government documents. A former volunteer firefighter, and member of the Yale Ratepayers’ Association, Adamson said he wasn’t politically active until

he ran for election in Area B, but since then he has “taken the job seriously.” “I’ve made some tough choices, because it was the right thing to do, because it was in the best interests of the people,” he said. Adamson said he’s also been unafraid to speak out on behalf of residents, fighting for cellphone coverage in the Yale area, and saving taxpayers thousands of dollars each for geo-technical studies

for needed dike work. “In the short time I’ve been elected, I’ve accomplished a great deal for my area,” he said. “I’m just an everyday working guy,” Adamson said, and he looks for “common sense” solutions to problems faced by residents. “I just feel I’m qualified (to run for provincial elected office) … and I love it,” he said, about his bid for the nomination. “I think I’ve found my calling.”

Think about it Chris Bryan Black Press The election pundits will tell you it’s a real chance to decide who runs the show in Ottawa. After years of minority government, the Tories could finally pull it off and get the keys to the car and a full tank of gas. The rhetoric in coming weeks could get intense, and it will be hard to fathom the truth in it all. Will the Tories really put half of us in jail and give the other half high-powered rifles to protect ourselves? Is Michael Ignatieff really a Russian spy? Is Jack Layton really Ted Turner? So many webs to untangle. But who cares? Elections come and go like dashed Stanley Cup dreams around these parts. It’s like watching the rain through your window at work. Don’t worry, you’ll get another chance to enjoy it on the weekend. Elections aren’t worth noting at all. Most people should just hit the couch that first Monday in May, watch Dancing with the Stars, maybe tune into the news later to see who won this time. Getting up and hoofing it to the polling station? No way. Better to spend that energy elsewhere, like trying to fathom the great features on that shiny iPhone or removing that ugly stain from the toilet bowl. Leave it to those suckers who keep voting year after year. Just think how much responsibility those masochists willingly bear on their shoulders.

Because of dwindling voter turnout, each one of their votes carries a weight that is actually much more significant. They’re not just voting for themselves, they’re voting on behalf of others too. Poor sods. Think about it. Suddenly, every patsy who follows the issues, gets to know the candidates and forces himself to make a decision has found himself forced to carry the weight of four. Suckers. I suppose we could ease the load on these blokes and sheilas, and follow the path of Australia. Force everyone to vote. Make it the law. There’d be 100 per cent turnout and every half-wit could reach his own decision, employing his mind-making-up technology of choice. One potato, two potato. Spin the bottle. Pin the tail on the donkey. Maybe that’s why Down Under these wise folks are called the “donkey vote.” For now, my advice to you non-voters out there is to watch out. Habitual voters will try to foist their burden on you by using guilt. They’ll talk about how privileged we are to have the vote in the first place, pointing to our free society—they might even mention the world wars. If you don’t want to vote, don’t bother. As for me, I’m only too happy to do it for you.

Opinion

All a B.C. government can do is create conditions that help or hinder economic growth. And there is little doubt that NDP governments of the 1990s hindered it, with taxes that caused miners to flee, choking forest regulations to appease urban environmentalists, and infantile tantrums aimed at both the Canadian and U.S. governments. Dix’s Vancouver Island rival John Horgan also wants to take back the 1990s. He claims a list of NDP accomplishments: the Agricultural Land Reserve, B.C. Transit, the Columbia Basin Trust, the B.C. Ambulance Service. Alas, B.C. Transit is more properly attributed to B.C.’s greatest-ever socialist, W.A.C. Bennett. The ALR and ambulance service were hurried projects of the Dave Barrett regime of the early 1970s, and the ambulance service stands today as a symbol of the hazards of unionized government monopolies. The Columbia Basin Trust was a Harcourt-era accomplishment, and it’s a worthwhile effort to share the benefits of the dams on the Columbia River with the region. But the important question for B.C. voters today is, what would the next NDP government do? Would there be a Peace Basin Trust along with the Site C dam? Not that I’ve heard of. Today’s NDP has no coherent energy policy, just pandering to knee-jerk opposition to Site C, recanted opposition to the carbon tax and some neo-Marxist claptrap that all power projects are evil

unless they’re shackled to a unionized government monopoly. The NDP candidates’ recent health care debate featured promises to roll back the contracted-out health care support jobs, reconstructing the small portion of the unionized health monopoly broken up by the Campbell government. NDP front-runner Mike Farnworth also scorned the “rethermed” hospital food that is part of the desperate effort to rein in health care costs. Candidates mused about bringing in fresh local food for hospital patients, which sounds nice but can only add costs. The health care crisis is bad and getting worse. If all the NDP can do is whine about “Tim Hortons medicine” and wave an organic carrot, I suspect Tommy Douglas wouldn’t be impressed. As this column noted in January, the B.C. NDP constitution remains explicitly opposed to profit and explicitly in favour of a state-controlled command economy. Harcourt and Carole James both tried to ease the party out of that rut, as Tony Blair did with the UK Labour Party. Both were dumped. Now the NDP strains to look ahead, but sees only the past.

Many voices, along many paths Special Contributor

April 10 - 16th marks National Victims of Crime Week, providing us with an opportunity to recognize and listen to those who have been victimized. The theme this year is “Many Voices, Many Paths” which reflects the real experience of those who are affected by crime. Each person’s experience is unique and the impact that on that person can vary from anger and irritation at the inconvenience to extreme trauma. It is important that we understand that each person will deal with things in their own way and in their own time. Our past life experiences, and the meaning we attach to crime, may influence how it will affect us. My goal is to strengthen peoples’ ability to cope in a positive and meaningful way. This week is a time to bring forward a greater awareness and understanding of the many experiences of people who have been victims of a crime or other tragedy. Simply listening to your neighbour or friend without passing judgement on how they have dealt with their experience or loss is a great first step. This starts building an understanding of how we all deal individually with difficult experiences. The criminal

Some key examples of this are: UÊ LiÌÌiÀÊ ÃiÀÛ ViÃÊ Ì Ê victims of domestic violence and a more consistent charging policy when an accused is arrested; UÊ Ã«iV v i`Ê À } ÌÃÊ v ÀÊ victims in the province entrenched within the B.C.

victim to have face to face contact and for the offender to make a meaningful apology and amends to the victim or community for their crime. The Victim Services program which serves the Hope/Boston Bar area provides a wide range of services to those who have been a victim of a crime and other types of serious incidents such as motor vehicle accidents and suicide. We will help any person who has been impacted by crime and needs assistance in getting through the initial trauma and wants information on their individual case and on their rights as a case proceeds through the justice system. Where possible we encourage people to take the steps they feel capable of in order to empower them to take greater control, but we also understand the difficulty of being involved in the criminal justice system and how frustrating and confusing it can be. We are there to assist at those times. This week is a time to remember that all victims have the right to support and we can help this along by simply listening to their needs. Having a voice is often a first step to being understood and affecting change. The Hope/Boston Bar Victim Services program will be setting up information tables on Wednesday, April 13 at Boston Bar Family Place, from 11 - 1 p.m., and at the Hope Public Library, from 2:30 - 4:30 p.m.. Please join us

for an informal time to share your experiences and your ideas on what can be done to improve services for victims. Where do we need to make change and how can we make Hope a better place to live. In addition we will have Victims of Crime lapel pins for

sale, which honour the experiences of crime victims. Marianne Brueckert is the Victim Services program manager for the Hope Community Police Office and the Boston Bar Neighbourhood Liaison Office.

Editor: The Standard While our first Hope For Kids Charity Children’s Swap Meet was not too successful in numbers, it was successful in the numbers of businesses and people able to connect and interact with one another. And it did raise some money for the Children’s Hospital as intended. Lemon Tree Events and the Hope Eagles co-sponsored this event to kick off hopefully the start of many Children’s Swap Meets.

Many suspects also pay a price for court delays, says defence Continued from pg. 2 Stern gives the example of someone charged with impaired driving and driving with a blood-alcohol level over 0.08 where another trial date adjournment will mean the case will almost certainly be tossed. “They may accept a plea bargain to a charge under the Motor Vehicle Act of driving without due care and attention,” he said. The driver pays a $368 fine and gets six penalty points but avoids a possible jail term, a criminal record, a one-year driving prohibition, mandatory safe driving course

and required use of an ignition interlock system. “It’s a huge advantage to the client,” Stern said. “When the courts are overbooked, Crown are more likely to do that.” Paul Pearson, a criminal defence lawyer in Victoria and local spokesman for the Canadian Bar Association, said long delays harden the defence bargaining stance. But he rejects suggestions defence lawyers and accused criminals are rubbing their hands in glee over court delays and how they can exploit long waits.

“Most people charged with criminal offences stress about that every single day,” Pearson said. “It’s by far the worst thing going on in their life. And they want an answer – yes or no, guilty or not guilty – sooner rather than later.” Lawyers usually aren’t paid more money when they have to make many court appearances, he said, and they must be ready for trial on repeated occasions. “The thousands of people waiting for their trials are agonizing, losing sleep, literally having nightmares every night about the process,” Pearson said.

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Truthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; in TV

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Full Houseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; star offers lesson in new teleďŹ lm By Sheila Busteed TV Media â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;TRUTHâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; IN TV: Fans can look forward to ending this week with a blast from the past when â&#x20AC;&#x153;Full Houseâ&#x20AC;? alum Candace Cameron Bure leads the cast of a new familyfriendly telefilm. Former â&#x20AC;&#x153;JAGâ&#x20AC;? star David James Elliott will join her in â&#x20AC;&#x153;Truth Be Told,â&#x20AC;? scheduled to air this Saturday, April 16, on Fox. Cameron Bure, who gained international fame as D.J. Tanner in â&#x20AC;&#x153;Full House,â&#x20AC;? will star as Annie Morgan in this new project. As Coloradoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top marriage counsellor, Annie lives a bit of an ironic life, considering that sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s never been married and tends to ignore the advice she gives her clients. As a promoter of living by the motto â&#x20AC;&#x153;honesty is the best policy,â&#x20AC;? Annie finds herself in an awkward position when invited to a media mogulâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ranch to discuss the possibility of her getting her own radio advice show. She thinks that being single will ruin her chances, so she convinces an old college friend, Mark Crane (played by Elliott), to pose as her husband for the weekend. Mark is a widower with two teenaged children, so the pair couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t possibly come from more different circumstances. However, as she grows closer to Mark and his family, she begins to understand that coming clean is the best thing to do. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What I really like about â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Truth Be Toldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; is that many of us can relate to Annie at some point in our lives and have ultimately learned that telling the truth is always the

best choice,â&#x20AC;? said Cameron Bure. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a touching movie that the entire family will enjoy and will be a great life lesson for kids of all ages.â&#x20AC;? STARRY CEMENT SHRINE: Some of the greatest actors in the history of Hollywood have flocked to Graumanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Chinese Theatre over the decades to enshrine their signatures and handprints in the concrete of the buildingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s forecourt. Charlie Chaplin, Shirley Temple, Judy Garland, Marilyn Monroe, John Wayne, Sidney Poitier, Jack Nicholson, Clint Eastwood, Tom Hanks, Johnny Depp -- theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re all there. But classic film fans may notice a rather significant name is absent from the list -- but not for long. After decades in the industry, Peter Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Toole will finally make his mark, and Turner Classic Movies (TCM) will be there to honour the occasion. The â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lawrence of Arabiaâ&#x20AC;? starâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cement ceremony will take place on Saturday, April 30, as one of the highlights of the TCM Classic Film Festival. Leading into the event, TCM host Robert Osborne will sit down with Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Toole on Friday, April 29, for a live interview with the star in front of festival attendees, which will be broadcast later on the network. When asked about the honour, Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Toole quipped in a release: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Caught at last. Forensics will have my dabs forever.â&#x20AC;? That Friday will also feature a special TCM airing of 1964â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Becket,â&#x20AC;? for which Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Toole received his second of eight Oscar nominations. In the historical epic, the star portrays Englandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s King Henry II, a character he revisited for 1968â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Lion in Winter,â&#x20AC;? which earned him another Oscar nod. Period pieces tend to flatter Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Tooleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s classic stage style, which shows through in his performances in â&#x20AC;&#x153;Caligulaâ&#x20AC;? (1979), â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Last Emperorâ&#x20AC;? (1987) and â&#x20AC;&#x153;Troyâ&#x20AC;? (2004), as well as the TV series â&#x20AC;&#x153;Masada,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Casanovaâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Tudors.â&#x20AC;? Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also well known for his performances in â&#x20AC;&#x153;Goodbye, Mr. Chipsâ&#x20AC;? (1969), â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Stunt Manâ&#x20AC;? (1980), â&#x20AC;&#x153;My Favorite Yearâ&#x20AC;? (1982) and â&#x20AC;&#x153;Venusâ&#x20AC;? (2006). Candace Cameron Bure will return to television in â&#x20AC;&#x153;Truth Be Toldâ&#x20AC;?

Spring is finally here and with it comes the province-wide presentation of Arts and Culture Week, April 10 - 16. This celebration, sponsored by the Assembly of BC Arts Councils, continues to promote arts and cultural activities throughout the province. The Hope & District Arts Council has organized a week filled with a variety of arts related events focussing on displays and workshops. Drop into the Backroom at the Hope Arts Gallery where Hope resident George Sauvé is displaying his stone carvings and Raku sculptures along with a variety of art work by Jenny Wolpert. The Backroom show runs from April 1 - 28 . The gallery will be featuring ‘Altered Art Works’, a collection of altered books and chairs by local artists. These imaginative works are created from recycled and found items and range from being functional to totally whimsical. Also showing is a display of original native clothing designed by First Nations artist Linda Kay Peters. On Sunday, April 10 from 1:00 – 3:00 p.m., children are invited to attend ‘Energy Angels’ and a second ‘surprise’ puppet show presented by ‘Positively Puppets’ at The Art Machine.

In November of 2008 I was diagnosed with MS. I knew that as a wife and a mother of two young children, letting this diagnosis defeat me was not an option. I’m a fighter. So, I chose to fight and find a way to help make a difference. Erika Enns, Team Captain, Team Vitala

Season ticket holders wait and wonder By Eric Welsh Black Press

Grant Ullyot has been a season ticket holder from the beginning, so the red flags were easy for him to see. Every year at this time, the Chilliwack Bruins would be in contact to make sure he was planning to renew his tickets. If he was at all hesitant, their sales staff would reassure him that the on-ice product was getting better, the ticket package was outstanding and he would not regret signing on for another year. And he did. Happily, Ullyot occupied a Grant Ullyot seat at Prospera Centre from Chilliwack’s inaugural season of 2006-07 to this year. But three weeks ago, having heard nothing from the Bruins sales staff, he wandered down to the team’s office to order his 2011-12 tickets. “And he said he wouldn’t take the order,” Ullyot explained. “He said he had to wait until they were printed, and I said, ‘What do you mean? You take the order, you print the tickets and we pick them up before the start of the season.’ And he said, ‘No. It’s going to be a little different this year. I’ll give you a call and let you know.’” Ullyot already had a bad feeling in his stomach from the last home playoff

game. Walking out of the arena after a loss to Spokane, he and a friend were talking about next year’s Bruins. Ryan Howse wasn’t going to be back, nor was Brandon Manning. Kevin Sundher was good and Brandon Magee looked promising. “We were having a great conversation when all of a sudden this voice from behind us says, ‘It doesn’t matter Grant, the team’s gone goodbye.’ In the dark I couldn’t see who it was, but once we got into some light I saw it was Clint Hames. That was troubling for me and I’m really teed off now that the ownership group has pulled the plug.” At the time, it was

easier to laugh it off and hope for the best. But now, with the sale and relocation of the team to Victoria a virtual certainty, Ullyot is struggling to come to grips with how it happened. “Victoria once had a good WHL team and they let it go because they couldn’t support it,” he said. “It wasn’t much of an arena that they played in, but there wasn’t much of a following for that team either. So it surprises me that the league would be so willing to accept that team again. I find it rather disheartening to say the least. But when you get into these types of deals, money talks and everything else takes a back seat.”

team in Victoria. By choosing to remain silent on the matter the WHL brings their credibility as a league into question. If they can treat Chilliwack in such a cavalier fashion, then other WHL cities need to beware.” Ullyot acknowledged Chilliwack’s own failure to draw crowds, a major factor in the league’s willingness to move the franchise. In particular, he took note of the crowds for the recent playoff games, 2962 for game one and 3217 for game two. “That was the absolute (rhymes with pits) for a playoff crowd in Chilliwack,” Ullyot said. “Attendance usually jumps in the playoffs, but it sure didn’t jump here.”

He’s far from the only one to feel the sting of betrayal. “One would think the owners would have had the common courtesy to inform and explain to their long term supporters of their decision to sell the team and relocate it to another city,” said Bruins fans Dean and Betty Johnson in a letter to the editor. “Even more disturbing is the WHL Board of Governors’ role in removing the Bruins from Chilliwack knowing full well that there is a buyer prepared to keep the team here. It opens the door to the speculation that there was a prior mutual agreement between the league and the Bruins ownership to place a

Which raises the question, was this ever a Western Hockey League market? Ullyot is unsure, but if another one set up shop in Chilliwack he knows he would be back in line to support it. “Would I? Definitely,” he said without hesitation. “And I’d like to think other people would too. What bothered me was when I read that the team didn’t contribute anything to the community. Are you kidding me? You couldn’t ask for more. They go to schools and read books and all that stuff. Reading that really bothered me.” The fallback option if another WHL team can’t be secured, which seems a long shot, is the return of junior A. The Chiefs had a long and distinguished run in Chilliwack before the Bruins arrived to shove them out of town. Ullyot could see himself supporting a BCHL franchise if all else fails. “There’s a big difference in the calibre of play and players,” Ullyot acknowledged. “In the WHL you watch the future of the NHL. It’s a faster game. I can’t think of anyone on the Chiefs who could skate as well at No. 9 (Tyler Johnson) for Spokane, or for that matter No. 9 for Chilliwack (Sundher). The Chiefs would be a fall-back position, and I know they averaged 3,000 or so fans per game the last time they were here. But I don’t know if they’d draw as well the second time around.”

IN MEMORIAM GIFTS

John was born in the small farming community of Zehner, SK. After completing most of his education by correspondence, he embarked on a teaching career starting in a one room school in Saskatchewan. He moved to Hope in 1952 where he met his wife Helen. In 1959 they were married, and raised 6 children, all of whom experienced having their father as Principal of C. E. Barry School before he retired in 1986. John was dedicated to his church and community, serving almost 60 years with the Hope Lions Club. In addition to serving on the executive of the Knights of Columbus, he participated in the church finance committee, and was a frequent reader during services. John was also dedicated to his family. He encouraged his children and grandchildren in their studies and interests, and shared his love of music with them all. His quick smile and hearty laugh will be missed. John was predeceased by his parents John and Amelia (Molly) Fuchs and his son Bryan. John is survived by his wife Helen; children Maureen (Ken), Alfred, Katherine, Jennifer (Ken), and Janet (Rick); and grandchildren Sean, Shannon, Alexandra and Maggie. John will also be missed by his brother Alfred and sisters Mary and Alma and their families. A Mass of Christian Burial was celebrated on Friday, April 1, 2011 at Our Lady of Good Hope Roman Catholic Church, Hope, BC. A donation to the charity of your choice would be greatly appreciated.

Following a full and active life as a husband, father, grandfather and loyal friend to so many, Fred passed away peacefully surrounded by his family in his 78th year on March 31, 2011. The eighth of thirteen children, Frederick (Fredolin) Pfenniger was born in 1934 in Buttisholz, Switzerland. At 22 Fred followed his heart which landed him in Canada, working in Kitimat, B.C. In 1959 he moved to Seattle, where he was employed for 15 years at the DariGold Cheese Factory. During that time, Fred was an active member of the Swiss Singing Society in Seattle, and Swiss Wrestling Club in Tacoma. In 1967, Fred married Elisabeth Muller (Kussnacht, Switzerland) in Seattle, and quickly started a family. In 1974 this young family of six moved to Boston Bar, B.C. where they established the Fraser Canyon Mobile Home Park Ltd. over the next 23 years. Fred was first, and foremost, a family man and instilled a physical lifestyle in his children. Memories of summer hiking, swimming, camping trips and winter ski trips, especially to Manning Park. Fred was respected by all those who came in contact with him. He volunteered his expertise and countless hours within the Canyon Alpine Improvement District, making the Alpine District a better place to live. One of Fred’s pet projects was the 42 foot high lighted “Alpine Cross”. Fred got a group of enthusiastic volunteers together and in May of 1992 the cross was standing. Today, you can see that cross on the mountain top above the Canyon Alpine District. To his family, he was their rock, inspiration and role model. Fred leaves behind his loving wife Elisabeth of 44 years and his children, Peter (Dawn), Paul, Freddy (Lydia) and Monica (Roberto) and his six grandchildren. The “Celebration of Fred’s Life” will be held on April 14, 2011 at 1 pm at the Cascade Gymnasium, 35190 Delair Rd., Abbotsford. In lieu of flowers donations to your favourite charity in memory of Fred would be greatly appreciated.

MCPHEDRAN, Peter A. Pete McPhedran passed away on March 31, 2011 at the age of 79. He was predeceased by his parents Norman and Olive McPhedran. Pete is survived by his loving family, wife, Yvonne, children; Neil (Shirley), Gordon (Kathy) and Cathy (Chris) and grandchildren; Kaley, Christopher (Kim) and Dylan. Pete was a resident of Hope for the last 51 years and was a teacher at Hope Secondary School for 27 years. Pete was devoted to his dearly loved family and always had a story to share. He enjoyed good food, good drink and a good time. A Celebration of the Life and Times of Pete McPhedran will be held at the Hope Golf and Country Club on April 7, 2011 at 2 pm. In lieu of flowers, donations to the Fraser Hope Lodge, Diabetes Association or the Alzheimer’s Association in Pete’s memory would be appreciated. The family would like to thank Dr. Botha, the wonderful caring staff at Fraser Hope Lodge and all their friends and family for their support.
