Upset mayor says joining Abbotsford could be an option Kevin MILLS and Natasha JONES Black Press

A DIVISION OF CANACCORD GENUITY CORP., MEMBER – CANADIAN INVESTOR PROTECTION FUND

The Township of Langley should seriously consider pulling out of Metro Vancouver Regional District and TransLink, and think about closer ties with Abbotsford, Mayor Jack Froese said on Wednesday.

And Abbotsford Mayor Bruce Banman would welcome a chance to discuss a partnership with his neighbour to the west.

Abbotsford has been told by the province that it cannot leave the Fraser Valley Regional District, as requested. Instead, the city was given the option to stay with the FVRD or find other communities willing to join them to create a new regional district.

The Langley mayor’s statement has created an opportunity for discussion.

to Langley which, “has some rights to be unhappy with Metro.”

Banman feels it is his job to examine all the options available to Abbotsford. The only one he won’t examine is joining Metro.

“That’s not going to happen while I’m sitting in the chair.”

Another option, according to Banman, could be to make the FVRD bigger by adding Langley.

He wants to have a discussion, confirm the data and then hold a public forum to see what the communities want.

“I’m sure that the residents of Langley would be thrilled to reduce their gas tax by 17 cents a litre,” said Banman.

He said Mission would also be welcome to take part in the discussions.

There is nothing wrong with talking, he said. “It’s called planning.”

Video helps capture thief Teen arrested Tuesday and faces charges Vikki HOPES Abbotsford News

Abbotsford Police say video footage of a young man stealing tools from a home garage and urinating on the floor was crucial in his arrest Tuesday afternoon.

Const.

Ian MacDonald said the 17-year-old suspect was identified by people who viewed the surveillance video, which the victim placed online, and by those who saw still images of him on posters placed in the neighbourhood.

He was arrested as he was walking along Peardonville Road, and police then executed a search warrant of his home.

There, they found dozens of tools that homeowner Dana Mosher had reported as stolen in the theft last Wednesday at his home on Clearview Crescent.

MacDonald said

Video footage taken by a homeowner was instrumental in catching a thief who took tools from a garage. This video image has been altered because the suspect is a youth, whose identity is protected under the Youth Criminal Justice Act. police received several tips and viewed Facebook postings that named the teen, who lives only a few blocks from Mosher.

“People who are fa-

miliar with him and saw the video were calling him out.”

The video was compiled from footage that Mosher’s 15-yearold grandson helped

him retrieve from the surveillance camera installed in the garage.

The footage indicated that the thief made three separate trips,

taking a few items each time and returning a few minutes later to grab more.

On his last trip, the culprit urinated on the floor of the garage before loading items into his backpack.

Mosher estimated that the total value of the stolen items was at least $5,000.

Police returned all his tools late Tuesday evening. The only thing missing was a $20 stud finder.

“I’m thrilled to death. I’m glad I got everything back, and I’m glad he’s in custody,” Mosher said.

MacDonald said the teen has had about 50 previous interactions with police for petty crimes such as mischief and theft. He now faces break-andenter charges.

He cannot be named because he is a youth whose identity is protected under the Youth Criminal Justice Act.

Car, house bombing linked?

Incidents occurred three months apart Vikki HOPES Abbotsford News

Police say a recent car bombing in Abbotsford has possible links to a small explosion that occurred at a townhouse complex in December.

Const. Ian MacDonald said police have not been able to rule out that the two incidents are connected.

The most recent one took place on March 24, but details were released only this week. Police received calls at about 2 a.m. that a loud bang was heard in the 31600 block of Peardonville Road, in the parking lot of an apartment building.

Neighbours said the noise sounded like either a gunshot or a blown electrical transformer, but patrol officers were unable to track down the source.

About five hours later, a man called from the apartment complex to say the interior of his Honda Prelude had been burned.

Investigators determined that a small makeshift explosive device

had been set off inside the vehicle.

However, MacDonald said, because different people used the car, police have had difficulty determining the intended victim.

He said the explosive device used is similar to one that was set off Dec. 31 at a townhouse unit in Kinsmen Creekside Estates at 33295 Maclure Rd. In that incident, the device was detonated in the patio area at the back of the unit, causing some minor damage to the wall. Three people were in the residence at the time, but nobody was injured.

MacDonald said both cases involve several potential victims and some have connections to both addresses.

Some have had “criminal, negative police-type associations” but MacDonald said there did not appear to be gang connections.

Anyone with information is asked to call the Abbotsford Police Department at 604-859-5225.

We’ve got Citizen helped Spring Fever! nab drunk driver BUY GET Police commendation received ONE

An Abbotsford man who helped snare an impaired driver earlier this year received a police commendation on Tuesday.

Owen Moore was recognized at the monthly police board meeting for his actions on Feb. 21 of this year.

On that day at about 7 p.m., Moore was traveling west on Highway 1 when he observed an erratic driver. He decided to follow the vehicle along the freeway and as it exited at Whatcom Road.

He called 911 on his cellphone, provided the licence plate of the vehicle and continued to follow the car as it swerved all over the road, hitting a median and some gas pumps at a service station.

The car also travelled through several restaurant parking lots, at times in the wrong direction.

Moore also witnessed the driver run a red light and a stop sign, narrowly miss-

QUESTION OF THE WEEK

Tool thief arrested

Is a regional partnership between Abbotsford and Langley worth pursuing?

The Youth Offender Act has to go, too many teens are committing adult crimes and they get away with it. When will the system ever learn? I am glad this kid was caught and that the guy got all of his tools back. I have been victimized so many times and no one has ever been caught. Car broken into, car stolen, house broken into, shed broken into twice and a near home invasion, which thankfully I woke up to. Time to change the system, instead of it being a criminal justice system how about making it a victims justice system, seems that the criminals have all the rights and we have none!

To answer, go to abbynews.com

LAST WEEK, WE ASKED:

Are you concerned by Kinder Morgan’s plan to increase pipeline capacity?

Sandy Bishop

196 RESPONDED:

That’s true. Actually the whole “ justice” system needs an enema.

YES: 44% NO: 56%

Clayton S. Bettschen

In the presence of the absence of order Andrew

Holota

On Point Funny how we all have our own sense of order, or absence thereof.

For instance, I live with two females who have highly developed concepts of order … in regard to certain things.

My daughter’s school binders are precisely labelled, filed and for all I know, cross-referenced and indexed.

Her homework scheduling is a matter of precise timing, and tactical and strategic planning.

Her closet is colour-coded, and clothes are racked by style and season. Before that all seems too bizarre for a young teen, her room itself often resembles the aftermath of a terrorist bombing.

My wife’s affairs are equally ordered.

I mean her work and day-to-day affairs, not the other ones. Not that I’m suggesting for a second that there any of those. But if there were, I’m sure they’d be well organized, too. Which

would explain why I don’t know about them. Not that I’m inferring in any way that there is anything I ought to know about.

I’m leaving that now, before I dig myself into a pit of domestic trouble so deep I can’t see daylight.

Anyway, the point I’m trying to illustrate is that both of the fine women in my life are highly structured, keenly ordered individuals.

My wife chases down crumbs in the kitchen with extreme prejudice. My daughter has her bathroom products arranged via a library decimal system.

So… here’s the thing. How does that explain the Tupperware? And let’s include the cookware while we’re at it.

First, a step back for a moment for context. We have a fair amount of Tupperware, not because I’m obsessed with the product, but because I use it a lot to store left-overs, lunches and easyto-prepare meals for our octogenarian moms.

You need to know I am an orderly person as well, especially in the kitchen, which is my culinary domain.

Mixing bowls in this drawer. Pots in that one. Pans and trays up there, gad-

gets and tools categorized, compartmentalized and placed perpendicular – here, here and here.

The Tupperware goes into two cupboards. Meal-sized on the left, according to the colour of the lids. Medium containers on the shelf below. Big storage buckets on the bottom. On the right, condiment cups, yogurt containers, and

Precision.

Continuity. The universe unfolding as it should. various sundry bits that fit in none of the types above.

You need a particular piece of Tupperware, your can close you eyes, reach in and grab it.

Precision. Continuity. The universe unfolding as it should.

Until … one of the girls empties the dishwasher.

Pots mixed with the mixing bowls.

Kitchen tools akimbo in the handiest

drawer. Can opener in with the cheese slicer. Turkey baster next to the electric mixer whisks.

A clear collapse of order.

And then there’s the Tupperware… utter madness. Absolute chaos.

Little with big. Big with medium.

Lids hastily shelved like an exploded deck of cards. Precarious towers of Tupperware, bunged in whatever space is available, with the door quickly shut, creating a boobytrap of cascading tubs to be unleashed by the next person to seek a container. That is almost always me.

I now approach the Tupperware cupboards as though they contain vials of nitroglycerine, or a rattlesnake. It doesn’t matter. Once the plastic landslide is unleashed, all that can be done is step back and watch.

And then… try to restore some harmony in the universe.

Little ones up on the left. Medium in the middle. Big on the bottom.

It’s all so simple, don’t you see?

It’s not just my house though. Sometimes, I look around and think, “The world has really got to get its Tuppeware in order.”

letters Erosion of moral standards

Re: A. Powell letter, “It’s about choice” in regard to lingerie football. Mr. Powell writes a very interesting letter about how Abbotsford should avoid trivial matters like lingerie football, and focus on bigger issues, because he argues “...it’s about the freedom of choice.”

It is not that lingerie football is evil in itself, but we must ask a very important question.

Why do people watch this sport?

I would have to argue that it is lust and selfindulgence that are the root cause. This sport also enforces the negative view that girls have to look a certain way to be accepted.

I agree with Mr. Powell when he says, “Stop and think about all the other moral issues that really do need addressing, such as the rise in crime in Abbotsford, shootings, drugs, grow-ops, rape.”

These issues need to be addressed, but what are the underlying issues that start these

horrible crimes?

In my opinion that is why lingerie football has become such a big issue in Abbotsford.

Freedom of choice is a good thing, but not all choices are good.

Should society allow lingerie football to hap-

letters Thanks for reducing costs Wow! The city fleets reduced story, by Kevin Mills, April 5, was a most welcome account of a transformed cost saving management at city hall.

This is exactly what so many people were hoping for. Sanity has finally arrived.

Yes, folks, the bright, cost-saving, mind of the city’s director of strategic planning and business improvement, Karen Sinclair, in joint effort with city staff ’s cost saving suggestions,

Insensitive What insensitivity to needy individuals is being shown to our less fortunate in this city. To ban panhandling shows a real lack of concern for some who have fallen on to hard times. I would rather be always on the giving end rather than on the begging end.

Shame on you, Abbotsford council members.

George Bochenek

was able to save the city nearly $2 million in operating costs by reducing 13 vehicles from the city hall fleet.

Along with numerous like-minded citizens, I wish to send kudos to each of you in this gallant effort of saving

taxpayers’ dollars.

Keep up the good work. We appreciate your dedication.

New library, new art

Abbotsford’s newest piece of art will be located in front of the public library being constructed as part of Abbotsford Collegiate Secondary.

The piece will be created by Vancouver sculptor Bruce Voyce and consists of a long metal pole, ending in the tip of a pen and surrounded at the top by swirls of circular metal poles. On these swirls are three pages with the Shakespearean quote “This above all: to thine own self be true” printed on them. The quote is from Hamlet.

At the base of the piece is a wheel that, when turned, moves the pages at the top in a circular motion.

The cost will be approximately $40,000.

The library is expected to be open in November 2012. A contest will soon be announced asking the public to help name the library, which will consists of 11,000 square feet of public space and 4,000 square foot of school library space.

Ball a finalist for prestigious prize BLG Award comes with $10,000 scholarship Gary AHUJA Black Press

Ben Ball is hoping to add one more award to his ever-expanding trophy case.

In March, the 22-year-old senior setter for the Trinity Western Spartans men’s volleyball team capped off his university career by leading his team to a second straight CIS national championship.

Ball overcame sickness at the tournament – he was confined to his hotel room bed between the quarter-finals and the semifinals – to win most valuable player honours.

He was also the Canada West and the CIS player of the year.

And on Wednesday morning, Ball was announced as a nominee for the BLG Awards, which recognize the top female and male athletes from CIS universities across the country.

“I always hoped for (a season like this) but I never really knew that it would actually happen,” Ball said during a conference call announcing the nominees. “This season has been a dream season for all of us.

“It was definitely a learning experience that finished well.”

The Spartans lost just a single match in league play and playoffs this past season, compiling an overall record of 24-1 against their Canadian competition.

As for what comes next for the graduating senior – who joined TWU after graduating from Abbotsford’s MEI Secondary – Ball said he’s not completely sure, but is planning

on winding down his playing days and getting into coaching.

The other male nominees are quarterback Kyle Quinlan of the McMaster football team, and a pair of hockey players, centre Andrew Clark of Acadia and defenceman Marc-Andre Dorion of McGill.

The female nominees are Tyson Beukeboom (St. Francis Xavier

rugby), Ann-Sophie Bettez (McGill hockey), Jacey Murphy (Guelph rugby) and Robyn Pendleton (UBC field hockey).

The winners, one male and one female, will be announced on April 30 at the Jack Singer Concert Hall in Calgary. It will be broadcast on TSN on May 26. Both winners receive a $10,000 postgraduate scholarship.

Unfortunately, most calls aren’t from prospective buyers, but rather from every real estate agent in town who will start to hound you for your listing.

After all, without the proper information, selling a home isn’t easy. Perhaps you’ve had your home on the market for several months with no offers from qualiÀed buyers.

ALLERGIES Do you suffer from allergies?

Introducing

Burning, itchy, watery eyes and nose, sneezing, runny nose and other symptoms.

Homeopathy is a natural medicine with a long term solution for allergies.

With a homeopathic treatment allergies gradually reduce until they are no problem.

Individually selected remedies are used in the treatment to improve your over all health.

While the substance is usually harmless, a slight malfunction in your immune system causes it to react anyway.

With homeopathic treatment we address the immune system, the cause of the allergy symptoms.

An allergy occurs when your immune system overreacts to a substance in your body or in your environment.

Antihistamines only address the symptoms of the malfunction in your immune system, therefore work only short term and with side effects.

Book your appointment in the month of April and bring in this ad to receive $20 OFF your first consultation fee. Homeopathic remedies are included in the consultation fee.

Mark your calendars and come for a FREE informational talk on Homeopathic Medicine at the Mission Library on April 24th at 6:30pm - 8:30pm to get your questions answered.

which complements a fantastic great shooting touch. As Manny grows physically he has the ability to have a solid university career.”

Dulay will join his Tamanawis teammate Rav Dhaliwal with the Cascades next season. Dhaliwal, a 6’8” centre, signed with UFV last month, along with shooting guard Max Neuman of Maple Ridge and forward Luke Morris of Mission.

All four players have been selected for the B.C. high school basketball all-star game, which tips off at 3 p.m. this Saturday at UBC. “The Cascades program is competing at a high level, and I am excited to begin my journey with the coaching staff and players,” said Dulay, who was a first team all-star at the AAA Fraser Valley tournament. “They have high standards and it fits well with the high standards I have for myself.”

Mouat shooting guard Mackenzie Thompson is making the leap to the PacWest next season with CBC.

FLYER IN EFFECT APR. 20 - APR. 26, 2012

tag you’re it.

The PacWest basketball season doesn’t tip off for another six months, but Dave Martens feels he’s already ahead of the game.

It was one year ago this week that Martens was announced as the new head coach of the Columbia Bible College men’s basketball team.

But recruiting season was already well underway at that point, and Martens had to scramble put together a roster for the 2011-12 season.

In the end, the youthful Bearcats took their lumps in the PacWest, posting a 1-15 record.

Heading into Martens’s sophomore campaign at the helm, the fact he’s been able to get a running start at recruiting season bodes well. This week, he secured commitments from a pair of promising perimeter players – Mackenzie Thompson of Abbotsford’s W.J. Mouat Secondary, and Taylor Friesen out of Winnipeg’s Vincent Massey Collegiate.

“We’re already leaps and bounds ahead of where we were last year,” said Martens, noting that the Bearcats are building on a solid core of returnees, led by all-star point guard Kevin Ford.

Thompson, a 6’3” shooting guard, matured into a solid contributor for Mouat last season.

“He brings a lot of the intangibles that we think we were missing a bit this year,” Martens said. “He has a confident yet humble demeanor. He really understands his role in the game and what he has to offer, and he does those things well.

“We’re looking for him to be aggressive offensively, to get in the paint and score, but he also . . . gets on the floor after loose balls, he tips passes, he gets after rebounds at both ends.”

Kayla Klim, a goalkeeper from Burnaby, and Sam Ricker, a defender from Delta, will join the Cascades this fall, and Giesbrecht believes they’ll make an immediate impact.

“Not only are Kayla and Sam both exceptional soccer players, they both possess the quality of character and desire for success that we look for,” said Giesbrecht, whose team won the Canada West title and a national bronze medal in 2010, but missed the playoffs last season. “They will both thrive at UFV.”

Come home to natural gas Natural gas offers comfort, convenience and value Your home is perhaps your most important investment. It costs money to maintain it, and needs energy to run it. By choosing the right energy for the right use, you can maximize energy efficiency and value for your energy dollars.

Natural gas is a good choice for heating, whether it’s hot water for a shower or warmth from the furnace or fireplace. It’s also great for barbecuing burgers on the patio. And, with the variety of stylish natural gas appliances and rebates available, upgrading your appliances to natural gas is more affordable. Find energy efficiency rebates that meet your needs at fortisbc.com/offers.

Natural gas makes your summers seem endless A natural gas barbecue never runs out of fuel. If you have a natural gas patio heater or fire pit, you can stay outside long after summer‘s over. And when that blustery storm hits, you can stay warm and well fed with a natural gas fireplace and range.

Both will continue working during a power outage.

For comfort, convenience and value balance your home’s energy mix with natural gas. Visit fortisbc.com/savingenergy to watch our video on how natural gas fits into your everyday life.

Choices to fit your life Stylish, convenient natural gas appliances increase the comfort of your home, indoors and out. Find out more about energy efficient appliances at fortisbc.com/gasappliances.

Furnaces and boilers Heating systems provide even warmth and comfort throughout the home.

Cooktops, ovens and ranges Chefs prefer natural gas for instant heat, a variable flame and precise temperature control.

Barbecues With a quick connect you’ll never lift a propane tank or worry about running out of fuel.

Dryers Natural gas dryers heat up instantly and dry your clothes with gentle warmth for fewer wrinkles.

Fireplaces Fireplaces provide ambience and cosy warmth. An outdoor fireplace, firepit or patio heater can extend those summer evenings.

Let energy saving start with a rebate

Backup power A natural gas generator can power your lights, electronics and refrigerator during a power outage.

Water heaters Storage tank water heaters heat water faster than electric models. On-demand water heaters save space and heat water only as needed.

Making a house a perfect home for Ben With the help of Harald Koehn, a local family now has a home that fits everyone

By Maggie Calloway Imagine if you will a family of five kids, one with spina bifida, and two adults all living in a 2,400-square-foot rancher which has seen, shall we say, better days. The imagination runs rampant thinking of long, dark, rainy winter weekends with high-energy kids trapped inside.

Koehn turns a Langley residence into a dream home kk from page 26 needs, both now and into the future, were integral to the design, this needed to be a home in the real sense of the word.

“The bones of the house were basically good so it was a smooth transition,” Koehn says.

“We were able to create what they were looking for within the new 4,400 square feet. The old house was not energy-efficient and none of the family had privacy. The difference for the family is life-changing.”

The project took a year to complete.

There were many different things at play in the renovation. One was Ben’s mobility, but the house was inefficient in many ways, and there was also a need for the new house to meet the needs of the family while the children were still at home and, if the parents wish, to age in place.

Built in a style similar to houses seen in Whistler, the home now includes a great room, dining room and kitchen combination.

“You get a great feeling of space, and the connection to the outside, through the three sets of French doors, flows naturally. There is a large patio with a pool and hot tub off the great room and no lip or step so Ben can come and go at will,” Koehn says.

The house was stripped completely inside and out. The centre of the home was opened up to create the great room and dining room using a timber frame structure, creating soaring fourteen-foot ceilings. The garage stayed as it was but a new bedroom wing was added which gave the family two large bedrooms, a bathroom and a laundry room.

“Our climate is so rainy and grey for a lot of the year we maximized the opportunity

BUILDING? RENOVATING? REPAIRING?

to bring in as much light as possible,” Koehn says. “We used distressed oak throughout the great room and dining room ... The kitchen works perfectly for everyone including Ben. There are a couple of areas especially for Ben; a lowered sink area and a bar fridge for cold snacks and at the end of the kitchen island there is a separate lower counter. We also placed the microwave lower so Ben can help himself.”

There is a contained suite of around 400 square feet for Ben including a bedroom and bathroom. The bathroom vanity is lower, there is a jetted tub, and the separate shower is large with no sill. The whole floor of the bathroom has a special membrane under the tile which channels water into the drainage system. In addition the floor is electrically heated so any

water will dry up quickly.

“On the ceiling there is a track system with a lift so Ben can go right from the bathroom through to his bed which again will add to independence,” Koehn says. “The bedroom is multipurpose with the bed, storage and then another little area where, when Ben gets older, they can put in a sofa and chairs; it’s set up with TV, so he can entertain his friends.

Building a home to suit the whole family

“BUT THE HANDYMAN SAID HE COULD DO IT” My technicians hear this comment frequently when making repairs. This tells me that homeowners are not aware of some very important information.

Electrical is a federally and provincially regulated profession. This means that it is illegal for anyone, other than a licensed electrical contractor, to provide and charge you for electrical installations, renovations and almost all repairs.

The Canadian Electrical Code, which is updated every 3 years, has very specific rules and installation requirements that must be strictly followed to ensure a safe installation or repair.

The risk of fire, personal injury and loss increases when:

x Electrical work is not done by a certified electrician who performs circuit load calculations and follows the most recent Electrical Code requirements.

x Correct procedures, techniques and products are not used for electrical installations and repairs.

x Questionable work is not inspected and corrected by a trained professional.

x Electrical systems are neglected and not checked regularly for deterioration and wear.

kk from page 27

Entrusting any part of the electrical system to a handyman, because he may be familiar with construction is like allowing the janitor to remove your appendix just because he works in the hospital.

Since the BC Safety Authority demands such a high level of skill and experience to make changes to any electrical system, homeowners are wise to expect and demand the same.

An Electrical Contractor employs certified electricians and apprentices to install or repair electrical systems following the Canadian Electrical Code requirements. He must carry the proper licensing, insurance policies and bonds to protect the customer. His electricians and apprentices must be covered by a Workers Compensation (WCB) insurance policy, otherwise the homeowner is held responsible for any injuries occurring on their property. Only the electrical contractor (not a handyman or any electrician) can purchase the electrical permit required for electrical work.

Homeowners should request to see proof of all the above before any electrical work begins.

Keep your home and family safe.

Call Blue Crest Electric Ltd. Entrusting your electrical repairs, installations and renovations to a professional, just makes good sense.

Your Satisfaction Guaranteed . . . 100% All work quoted in advance and performed by back-ground checked, drug-tested, qualified electrical professionals.

tion for giving us a grant under their ‘accessible housing program’ to help with the part of the renovation that affected Ben. We really appreciate the help they gave us.

“I want anyone who is building a new home or renovating to realize it’s not that hard to include little things that make it accessible. If they end up in a wheelchair after surgery or need a walker ... they need at least

The door to the outside from his bedroom is automated by pushing a button, again to lend independence. Everything has been thought through to give as much accessibility and independence as possible.”

The brilliance of this home is, even with the necessity of building in accessibility, nothing looks or feels contrived or institutional. Steve Riley of S.P. Riley Residential Design and Koehn worked hard to make sure that didn’t happen.

“Steve Riley did a fabulous job both on the original design and making the necessary adjustments as the job progressed... He was very critical in making this project work,” says Koehn.

The exterior of the home is dramatic but also subtle. The sidewalks change elevation seamlessly and complement the home; this was done by building up the terrain so that the ramps become pathways.

Darlene is the mother of this large brood.

The new house is perfect for Ben and his family, with “It was so important to build a upgrades meant just for him such as exterior ramps, a home that worked for the whole lowered counter and sink in the kitchen and his own family. A lot of thought and dedicated bedroom and bathroom. planning went into every bit of Martin Knowles photos the house,” she says. “We wanted one entrance they can use to get into the to get it right because we plan house. Simple things such as making doors on being here for a long time. Ben is a full wide enough or planning for an elevator are member of the family and now he is able to easy to do when building but difficult to accompletely participate in family life. I would commodate after the fact.” like to acknowledge the Vancouver Founda-

Millwork: a quick update If you are considering a whole house renovation or would just like to make over a room or two, high-level millwork would make a stunning addition.

Chris Maurer and Paulo Ribeiro are partners in Swift Sure Milling and Mouldings in Surrey.

Ribeiro was the original owner and, after meeting Maurer during his work in the forestry business, asked him to consider joining him in the growing new venture.

Originally the partners

started off as just a milling company surfacing material for Upper Canada Forestry Products, but both knew they wanted to expand into custom mouldings to really service the building industry with highend product delivered on time and on budget.

A huge dream of both partners was to bring in a Heian, a one-of-a-kind machine with twin 5 x 10 cables and 31 inches of bed travel and the “magical” two rotary axes.

“We do a lot of special custom work for builders and con-

tractors, primarily the millwork industry who are doing work on big projects like the pub at the new convention centre, BC Place, restaurants. Bigger scale projects,” Maurer says, adding, “For people who are renovating a heritage house or who need crown moulding that is no longer produced, we can take a sample, scan it, make custom knives and reproduce any kind of profile. No matter when it was made or how intricate the design, we can match it and once it’s installed you can’t tell the difference.”

Greening our schools and children April 22 is Earth Day, a national environmental event to foster and celebrate environmental respect, action and behaviour change that lessens our impact on the earth.

Neil CORBETT Abbotsford News

When the Rotary Club of AbbotsfordMatsqui hosted its first annual Abbotsford Environmental Leadership Awards, one of the first organizations to be acknowledged was the Abbotsford school district.

Under the leadership of Tom Louie, the director of facilities, and Rick Walker, manager of energy conservation, the district is taking an innovative approach to running energy-efficient schools.

In the process, they hope to bring along a generation of students with a keen environmental conscience.

Louie explains most school districts take advantage of Hydro and government energy conservation initiatives, getting grants to put in energy-efficient lighting and other projects. He calls this the “low hanging fruit.” But the Abbotsford district aims higher.

The school district operates 2.5 million square feet of buildings, so even small savings at each classroom begin to add up

SUBMITTED PHOTO

Tom Louie (centre) accepts an environmental leadership award from Rotary Club of Abbotsford-Matsqui president Matt Robinson and Rotarian Marie van Dalfsen in February. quickly.

“There’s a huge multiplier effect,” he said.

The district is doing large, highly visible, award-winning projects such as the computer lab at Abbotsford Middle School, which is completely off the province’s hydro grid and is powered by solar power and a wind turbine. When the sun isn’t shining and the wind isn’t blowing, there is a stationary bike so that a stu-

dent can hop on and still power the computers using youthful kinetic energy.

The district has also tried to harness students’ energy for conservation.

Walker estimates it costs “about a buck an hour” to light a classroom. Harnessing that “multiplier effect” to save a few bucks at each school could have a big impact across 2.5 million square feet of facilities. An education program has kids turning out lights whenever a classroom is not in use, powering down their computers, and even training them to read the school hydro meter – so they can chart their conservation themselves.

There is an incentive program that sees schools given $1,000 if they can drop their hydro use by five per cent, $2,000 for 10 per cent, and a big prize for the top school each year. The district gave its schools $45,000 in the first year.

However, the resulting savings have been impressive – the district’s hydro usage has dropped 18 per cent over three years. It has been enough to get BC Hydro’s attention, and garnered the district an award.

With a hydro budget of approximately $1.1 million, the district can share its savings with schools and still be ahead of the game.

And, Louie points out, the kids are learning lessons that will serve them well outside of school.

“They take what they are learning back home,” he points out.

He said without a great buy-in by teachers, the conservation program would not be possible.

Louie and Walker have been at the forefront of turning the new Abbotsford Collegiate into a model green school.

Rather than gas, it will be heated using groundwater from wells sunk on-site and a heat pump system. The same water pumps will be used to irrigate the playing fields.

The building has been designed to maximize natural lighting with shafts through the school and reflective surfaces. Occupancy sensors will control light and air conditioning. There will be an interpretive sign system throughout the school to educate students as to the many energy-saving features.

“This is a showcase school,” said Louie.

“Rick and I call it an energy campus.”

To do the project, Louie and Walker had to prove that it could be done for the same funding as a traditional school.

Louie and Walker don’t appear to be socalled “tree hugger,” environmentalists who get stereotyped. They are both engineers, and approach conservation from that mindset.

“It’s a business model,” said Louie. “It just makes good business sense – why not build a school that is more efficient?”

Area Manager DIGNITY FUNERAL HOMES

APPLY NOW!!!

The life of a funeral director can be stressful. Everyday someone in this universe dies. It is not a good feeling to experience the death of a loved one.

Sometimes we want life to fast forward and imagine that the worse has never happened.

Death has a sting to it and has many metaphors associated with it. Therefore, a funeral director can be seen in a different light.

Television does not always depict the best description of a funeral director. Funeral directors work countless hours, give of themselves, and have a large amount of responsibility.

A funeral director only has one opportunity to make things right for a family.

Many details are involved with a funeral arrangement. Families put their care and trust in a funeral director. We have the honour of taking care of someone’s loved one. Providing service means putting the needs of others first. Being emphatic and compassionate to people who are hurting can influence individuals towards healing.

The choice of a funeral director is important to a family. We can add value to someone’s experience by providing a seamless experience through his or her loss.
