Stone Temple Pilots bringing tour to Abby Stone Temple Pilots will be rocking the Abbotsford Entertainment & Sports Centre as they bring their Greatest Hits Tour to the venue on Sept. 17 at 8 p.m. Up and coming American rock band Crash Kings will open for STP. Since the moment they appeared on the scene in the early 1990s, Stone Temple Pilots dominated the decade from start to finish, racking up 15 singles on the Billboard Top Ten, winning a Best Hard Rock Performance Grammy Award in 1994 for Plush, and having five albums sell more than 35 million copies worldwide. STP has sustained commercial success, earning critical acclaim with each release and building a body of work that remains popular. The band quietly went their separate ways after the turnof-the-millennium release of Shangri-La Dee Da. In 2008, Stone Temple Pilots announced they’d be reuniting, with a major concert schedule, marking the first national tour for Stone Temple Pilots in almost eight years. Tickets for the Abbotsford show can be purchased online at abbotsfordcentre. ca, by telephone at 1-866-977-AESC (2372) or in person at the AESC box office. They can also be purchased at ticket outlets located at the Abbotsford or Matsqui recreation centres and Whatcom Wine & Spirits, beginning July 6 at 10 a.m.

Braun: Increases ‘out of line’ Higher city payroll called unsustainable
Kevin MILLS Abbotsford News
Thirty-one city employees saw their incomes increase by more than 10 per cent in 2011, costing taxpayers an additional $462,000. Last week, the city released a list of employees who earned more than $75,000. Of those 211 people, 89 earned more than $100,000. In total, Abbotsford’s employee payroll was more than $3.5 million higher in 2011 than in 2010. That’s equivalent to a municipal tax hike of about 3.5 per cent. The 2010 total payroll was $42.2 million. In 2011, it rose to $45.8 million – about 8.4 per cent. Abbotsford Coun. Henry Braun said that figure is “not realistic. “We can’t afford this,” he said, adding the world financial system has changed. He called the increase “unsustainable” and “out of line.” Unionized employees got a three per cent increase in 2011, and Braun said the overall figure should be closer to that level. He pointed to the city’s 1.6 per cent increase in municipal taxes this year, noting it wouldn’t

The bear facts Q There are an estimated 120,000 to 160,000 black bears in B.C. The population is greater today than it was in 1870. Q From 2004 to 2009, conservation officers in B.C. killed an average of 538 black bears and 37 grizzly bears each year due to real or perceived threats.
Readily available food such as garbage and bird feeders draw bears into residential areas. Public awareness and prevention measures on the North Shore have significantly reduced the number of bears being shot there.
Over-reaction to bears? Common myths challenged
Q Hunters take between 3,500 and 4,000 bears in B.C. each year. Q Black bear males are commonly between 60 kg and 125 kg (125 to 500 pounds. A cub’s birth weight is half a pound to one pound.

He initially faced three other charges – two counts of break and enter and one count of mischief – but those are expected to be stayed. Patillo is slated to return to Vancouver provincial court for sentencing on Aug. 14. To date, 301 criminal charges have been approved against 114 suspected rioters, and 26 have pleaded guilty.
Downtown to feature patios Kevin MILLS Abbotsford News
Patios will soon be a featured attraction in the downtown core, and visitors can get a sneak peek at how they will work during this weekend’s BerryBeat festival. Council recently approved a proposal to allow downtown restaurants and cafes to set up sidewalk patios, in an effort to create more
foot traffic. Tina Stewart, executive director of the Abbotsford Downtown Business Association, said the project, which has been in the works for about four years, should be ready to go by the end of July. City staff still have to establish the approval and licensing process to allow liquor and food services outside the establishments. Stewart said the idea first
came about because outdoor patios are allowed during the annual BerryBeat celebration. She anticipates Mitch Miller’s will be the first business to set up a patio, because they have run one during the last few festivals. Businesses will have to file papers with the city, and if they want to serve alcohol, will have to apply to have extensions to existing liquor licences.

Abbotsford Whaler’s Swim Meet
Good Neighbour Project
The Abbotsford Whalers will be hosting their Annual Regional Swim Meet, Saturday, July 14 and Sunday, July 15 at Centennial Outdoor Pool. Please note that Centennial Outdoor Pool is closed to the public during this time and the site will be very busy with campers and spectators.
In 2010, the City of Abbotsford proudly announced the Good Neighbour Project. Under this project, Bylaw Enforcement Of¿cers pro-actively enforce bylaws that regulate the appearance of private property and the use of street boulevards. This is an important initiative which supports the City’s Crime Reduction Strategy and a Strategic Goal to build a safer, healthier and more inclusive community.
Bradner Town Hall Meeting Mayor Bruce Banman and Members of Council invite Bradner area residents to a Town Hall meeting on Tuesday July 10th from 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm at Bradner Hall, located at 5305 Bradner Road. The City will provide short overviews of the Uplands Drainage matter and the Gloucester industrial development application. The Mayor will then host a question and answer session.

Matsqui Slough Bridge Closure Riverside Street The City of Abbotsford appointed Surespan Construction Ltd. to replace the Matsqui Slough Bridge. To facilitate the bridge replacement and to address safety concerns during construction, Riverside Street will be fully closed at the immediate bridge location from July 3, 2012 to August 31, 2012. Detour signs will be posted to direct trafÂżc to alternate routes. Riverside Street will re-open to single-lane, alternating trafÂżc from September 1, 2012 until project completion, which is anticipated for October 31, 2012. Your understanding and cooperation are appreciated. Please direct inquiries to Amer Nawaz, Project Manager, at 604-864-5514 or anawaz@abbotsford.ca.
We wish to thank all those who supported this initiative and did their part to beautify the City of Abbotsford. To date, Bylaw Enforcement Of¿cers have handled more than 1800 matters, involving such things as: • unsightly/overgrown yards; • buildup of rubbish; • unlicensed vehicles; • parking violations on boulevards. Improving the appearance of the City bene¿ts everyone. Please have a look at your yard and surrounding area, to see if any improvements are needed. Remember, motor vehicles should be parked in driveways or on parking pads, not on the lawn or in landscaped areas. Unlicensed motor vehicles are not allowed on the street, including the area between your property line and the roadway. You are allowed one unlicensed vehicle on your property, provided it is not a wrecked vehicle.
Stewart said any patio where alcohol is served will also have to install railings to “contain� the area. The time limit being discussed on serving alcohol is 10 p.m. The decision to establish patios is another step in the ongoing revitalization of the area. If all goes well, Stewart feels 10 new patios will be operating by the end of the summer.

‘Hazing’ bears in Whistler If bears are conditioned to come into residential neighbourhoods by food, negative reinforcement may teach them they are going to get a bad time whenever they stray from their proper place in the wild. The Whistler RCMP detachment is called to deal with a bear on approximately a weekly basis, and Sgt. Eric Rochette explained their “hazing” policy. Every police cruiser in Whistler is equipped with a bear kit, which includes a handgun that looks like a starter pistol, but can be used to fire bear bangers and screechers. In most cases, the loud noise will frighten a bear away. Next, officers can escalate to bean bag guns, or rubber bullets, which are fired out of a shotgun. The rubber bullets can actually be lethal at close range, or easily cause serious injury to the animal, and officers are trained in what is a safe distance to use this method. These more punitive actions virtually always result in the bear running away. Bears are territorial, and will sometimes
return to a neighbourhood despite police hazing. When they do, the Conservation Officer Service will attempt to trap and relocate the bears. If a bear must be put down, and Rochette clarified that is always a last resort, the officer will use a shotgun loaded with slugs. Rochette said with this weapon it is possible to humanely kill a bear with one shot. That was necessary after a bear swatted a 55-year-old man sitting in his hot tub in Whistler on June 3, causing injury. It is unknown what caused the attack, which made headlines across the country, but Bear Aware officials noted that hot tub covers give off a scent that is similar to an ant’s nest. That may be what brought the bear into the man’s yard. Shooting bears can be controversial, but Rochette said the people of Whistler realize their police force has a game plan for dealing with these animals. “People will have questions, but the officers are well trained here,” he said.

‘Following their noses’ From A5
Grizzly bears are more aggressive, but they were wiped out in the Fraser Valley by early settlers, and generally are no closer than Squamish and the Fraser Canyon. Macquisten is a member of the North Shore Black Bear Network, a group of citizens who became concerned when 39 bears were killed in their community in one year. “People were really bothered by that,” he said, and they formed a group to educate the public in 1999. Christine Miller handles public education for the group, and said its activities include driving neighbourhoods looking for homes where garbage has been put out the night before pickup. They will then send these residents education material about attractants, and how they could face fines for leaving them out. They have sent information to 1,450 homes in the past 12 months. “It has had a huge impact, but it’s labour intensive,” she said. Last year, only 12 bears were shot on the North Shore. Public education is the key, and she believes the Abbotsford Mission Bear Aware program will eventually be effective. Because bird feeders are a problem in Abbotsford, she advises people to get rid of the long feeding tubes. Replace them with
bird baths, and “just put a few spoonfuls of high quality feed out, when they’re there to watch the birds.” She said bird feeders will also bring rats, and therefore coyotes, leading to more wildlife conflicts. Miller blames bear conflicts on humans, rather than the young bears that typically
find themselves in trouble. “They’re just finding their way, and following their noses.” Macquisten hopes the increase in bear visits to urban backyards in future causes less fear. “Think of bears as more of a nuisance than a threat,” he advises. “That’s the realization the people
of North Vancouver have come to.” Abbotsford Police Const. Ian MacDonald said bear sightings continue to be common. Officers responded to six such reports over the long weekend and were able to scare off the bear in each case. For more information visit bearaware.bc.ca

QUESTION
Murder of former Abbotsford man
OF THE WEEK
Should ferry rates be increased to reduce public subsidization?
Jordan’s destiny was mapped out for him before he was born. He was a victim of prenatal alcohol abuse and his tragic dysfunction was cemented by years of abuse. What was done to Jordan was criminal, and he was failed by a system that showed him no justice for his pain and suffering. He was born into a cycle of abuse and did not have the intellect to escape. I hope his tortured soul is at peace now ...there were many things to look past to see his huge heart and devotion to those he loved, I saw past the criminal, remembered the frightened little boy. He was my foster son, and as much as he grieved me many a time, there was much to love about Jordan. Noreen Wideman

LAST WEEK, WE ASKED:
Do you support the decision by police to kill a bear wandering around homes?
So true, Noni. Through no fault of their own, FAS kids have been “sentenced” to a life of desperately wanting to fit in, struggling to deal with their disability – an invisible disability – in a world where people judge quickly and harshly without always knowing someone’s story. Susan Lees Trenholm

Rough seas ahead for BC Ferries Tom
Fletcher
B.C. Views BC Ferries has begun its summer schedule, ramping up sailings for the vacation season that is crucial to the fleet’s bottom line. It’s been rough sailing for BC Ferries so far this year. The corporation released its financial results in June, reporting a net loss of $16.5 million, compared to net earnings of $3.8 million the previous year. Last year’s earnings were boosted by the sale of the former corporate headquarters for $9.3 million, preventing a loss there as well. In the fiscal year that ended March 31, vehicle traffic was down 3.5 per cent and walk-on passengers were down 2.8 per cent. As a result, BC Ferries is forecasting a “small loss” for this year as well. The spring “Coast Saver” sale has just ended. That’s a 37-per-cent discount offered Fridays through Mondays, May 25 to June 25 on the major runs from the
mainland to Victoria and Nanaimo. The discounts allowed a foot passenger to cross for $9.95 and a car and driver for $39.95. I asked BC Ferries CEO Mike Corrigan last week how the sale went. He didn’t have final figures yet, but he allowed that the boost in traffic was “marginal.” It’s the second year that the spring sale has been offered over weekends, when people are more likely to travel. But instead of generating additional trips, Corrigan said the main effect has been to shift traffic from midweek to weekends. One of the primary reasons for this spring’s poor performance is the lousy weather that kept people at home. Gasoline at $1.40 a litre is another big one. Hotels and other tourism services tell the same story. Here’s another problem: student traffic on the ferries was down by a third this spring, because teachers cancelled field trips as part of their lengthy work-torule campaign. The simplistic political debate about ferry service starts and ends with rising fares, with occasional fits of temper over executive salaries, and ignores the other factors. Just cut the fares and increase
the taxpayer subsidy, say the NDP and their local echo chambers. Of course, taxpayers are already pitching in an extra $80 million this year, bringing the subsidy to the ferries close to $200 million. That’s how Transportation Minister Blair Lekstrom sweetened
One of the primary reasons for this spring’s poor performance is the lousy weather... the pot as he unveiled new powers for B.C. Ferry Commissioner Gord Macatee to set service levels as well as regulate fares. Macatee’s task now is to travel the coast and endure the demands of island dwellers who want the rest of us to subsidize their splendid isolation. The proposition for them will boil down to this: You can pay more or you can have fewer sailings. And where the boat is a
third full, you will have fewer sailings. This consultation period is an opportunity to ask some hard questions. For instance, does Saltspring Island really need three ferry terminals? And why is there no passenger-only service? Macatee’s term as commissioner started with a detailed review last year that pointed to some other ways to save serious money. But CEO Corrigan says there are no quick fixes. FortisBC has offered an $11 million incentive for conversion of marine vessels to natural gas, which would give the fleet significant relief from spiraling fuel costs. But a ferry conversion would take six months or more, and another vessel would be needed in the meantime. Another promising suggestion is overhauling the ferry reservation service, making reservations free and charging extra for those who just show up. Corrigan says a computer reservation overhaul is underway, but it will take three years. Tom Fletcher is legislative reporter and columnist for Black Press and BCLocalnews.com tfletcher@blackpress.ca

Congrats & Merchants have heart Daryl Jenessa
I recently started a fundraiser to sponsor three low-income grads with their prom. I approached Abbotsford Collegiate, and they supplied me with the names of the grads in need. I am pleased to say Abbotsford merchants have a heart. With support from family and friends, fundraising with hotdog sales, garage sales and burger-and-beer nights, we raised enough to purchase the dresses and suits and cover the grad fees for six local students. Abbotsford businesses supplied donations of money, door prizes and local services. All dresses and suits were purchased locally. Hopefully, we can continue this fundraiser in the future. Each grad has personally thanked me, and told me how this experience has brightened their lives and their futures. Thank you again for your support. Carolin Belyea

Clayburn celebrates heritage Clayburn Village will celebrate its history with Heritage Day and a heritage house tour on Sunday, July 15. The tour will showcase eight private homes and two community buildings. These include homes designed by architect Samuel Maclure, and include clinker brick homes, a village store, artisan shops, the original schoolhouse, a country church, diverse decorating styles and cottage gardens. Free events for the family include village and brick factory site tours, vendor booths, artisans, vintage cars, old-fashioned children’s games and a vintage fashion show. Clayburn Village is B.C.’s first company town and one of its oldest historic villages. Though it has evolved over time, it is still a thriving, close-knit community. The village is located at the foot of Sumas Mountain, east of the Abbotsford-Mission Highway. It owes its existence to a seam of highquality fire clay that was discovered late in the last century. John Charles Maclure, the brother of the renowned architect Samuel Maclure, founded the company in 1905. While the village is part of the City of Abbotsford, it is in part administered by the Clayburn Village Community Society, which promotes community spirit with recreational, cultural and athletic endeavours; the educational value of local history; and the preservation of heritage sites. Tickets for the house tours are $25 and will be available at the event. For more information about Heritage Day, email clayburnday@ hotmail.com.

Schmidt set for London Abbotsford soccer star going to Olympics
Neil CORBETT Abbotsford News
Some of the biggest games of Sophie Schmidt’s soccer career are ahead of her, as the Abbotsford woman gets set for the 2012 Olympic Games in London later this month. If all the pomp and ceremony of the Games can be a distraction to an athlete, Schmidt expects the veteran Canadian side to be more focused than most.
Sophie Schmidt is on the Canadian Olympic soccer team. “We’re familiar with each other. We have so much experience, and for a lot of us it’s our
second go-around in the Olympics.� She was in Beijing in 2008, and Schmidt has 74 caps at just 24 years of age. She enters this Olympics as one of the leaders on the pitch, an all-around midfielder, and she relishes the attacking role she has been given by coach John Herdman. “I love going forward with the ball at my feet,� she said. She looks for opportunities to shoot,

Behind every work zone cone is a worker in a vulnerable position. Each cone stands for someone’s father, mother, son, or daughter. That’s why it’s important to know that thousands of people working by the roadside in B.C. are counting on you to slow down and drive with care when approaching a “Cone Zone.“ ConeZoneBC.com
and to get the ball to captain Christine Sinclair, who has netted 134 goals for Canada. They have been placed in a tough group of four for the Olympics. Only two teams will advance, and also in the group is Japan, which won the World Cup last summer and enters the Olympic tournament ranked third. Canada opens against Japan on July 25. Also in the group is Sweden, a squad ranked fourth in the tour nament, but Schmidt said the Canadians have played them even in recent years. The only reprieve for Canada might be 65th-ranked South Africa. Schmidt said the Canadian women, who are themselves ranked seventh, are only thinking about gold. “You’ve got to beat the best teams to win a medal,� she said. “We’re going out there with a mindset to win.� The Canadian women are out to erase the memories of last summer’s World Cup in Germany, where they were dispatched with an 0-3 record, having been outscored 7-1. They finished second in the CONCACAF qualifying tournament with the silver medal, but lost to the top-ranked U.S. squad 4-0 in the final. On Saturday they faced the U.S. powerhouse one last time before the Olympics, in a friendly match in Salt Lake City. The result was a 2-1 U.S. win.

CELEBRATE AT BERRYBEAT FESTIVAL JULY 7TH AND 8TH in Historic Downtown Abbotsford sford Story provided by the Abbotsford Downtown Business Association ociation
T
he question comes up every year at Berrybeat Festival; why the name? Why Berrybeat? We
all are quite aware that there are few berries that make an appearance at the festival. Having only been with the Downtown for two festivals, I have wondered the same thing. This year, I wanted the answer to that question, so I did some digging into the history of the Berrybeat Festival. Our wonderful community of Abbotsford is known as the Berry Capital of Canada, and that’s where the celebration began 31 years ago. The merchants and members of Historic Downtown Abbotsford wanted a time to celebrate the bounty of berries our community is blessed with

Federal riding changes for Mission/Abby The Federal Electoral Boundaries Commission for B.C. has redrawn the proposed federal riding for MissionMatsqui, which will drop Pitt Meadows and most of Maple Ridge, and expand south into Abbotsford. The new boundaries would run from 240 Street in Maple Ridge, north to Alouette and Stave Lakes, then south to encompass Mission, continu-
ing into Abbotsford. Most of northern Abbotsford would be in the riding, including Sumas Mountain east from the Vedder River to Atkinson Road, Lower Sumas Mountain Road, north along Sumas Way, then continuing west along Maclure Road to Mt. Lehman Road. The remainder of the city would be linked with Abbotsford-Sumas in
another electoral riding. These electoral ridings are draft proposals, which the public can now comment on and provide feedback during public hearings slated for fall. The local meeting will be held at the Ramada Plaza & Conference Centre, 36035 North Parallel Road, on Wednesday, Sept. 19 at 7 p.m.

Saturday July 7, 2012 6 - 8 PM
Coalmont Right now traffic on the Port Mann Bridge can get backed up for miles. But thankfully, the new bridge is opening soon. It has more lanes and that means less congestion, less stress and less time stuck in traffic. In fact, it could save you up to an hour a day. To learn more, visit portmannbridge.ca

Lonesome concert
TIRED OF LOW RETURNS?
Highrise Lonesome comes to Mission on Friday, July 6 from 7 to 8 p.m. as part of the Envision Twilight Concert Series at Fraser River Heritage Park. The members of Highrise Lonesome are city dwellers steeped in the classic sounds of bluegrass. Although they may make brief detours into the side streets of old-time and roots music, they always return to bluegrass. Sparkling vocals are a major part of the sound, with the harmonies of Sue Malcolm and Vic Smyth as the centrepiece. Malcolm sings lead and harmony in a warm, natural style and also plays guitar and clawhammer banjo. Smyth brings great energy to his mandolin playing and lead and harmony vocals. His clear baritone shines on solos and blends on harmonies. Don Fraser adds his inventive dobro stylings, from bluegrass and country to swing standards and gypsy jazz. Jay Buckwold has added his banjo skills to a variety of West Coast bluegrass bands. Making good use of his razor-sharp wit,

Progress
REGISTER NOW! In September, 220 adventurers took on the 2011 Innovative Fitness Canuck Place Adventure Challenge. Racers kayaked the calm waters of Deep Cove and Cultus Lake then set off on mountain or road bikes, before returning to tackle the trails on foot and racing back to finish to the cheers of onlookers. While challenging themselves, each of the participants was reminded of the daily challenges of Canuck Place children. All of the racers raised the minimum of $1000 for Canuck Place—and many exceeded it—raising a record $285,000! An event such as this is the sum of many parts and we look forward to our 2012 event, aiming to incorporate what we have learned into an even better experience. We particularly want to thank our most generous and committed sponsors, for embracing our mission and helping to surpass our expectations. You help us to “embrace life”.

Consumers and businesses in BC have an environmentally sound recycling option. You can drop off your electronic products at designated Collection Sites throughout the province without charge. Since EPRA’s program began in 2007, more than 75,000 metric tonnes of unwanted electronics have been recycled. That’s over 75,000 metric tonnes that did not end up in our landfills and were not exported illegally to become someone else’s problem. Who runs the program? The EPRA is a not-for-profit extended producer responsibility association. It was set up by the
Where Return-It comes in: Encorp Pacific (Canada) runs the Return-It Electronics™ program. They have been contracted by EPRA to manage the electronics stewardship program.

These items are broken down using various manual and mechanical processes. Products such as batteries and mercury lamps, which require special processing to recover materials, are removed. The

remaining products are separated into their individual components for recovery. Through a variety of refining and smelting processes, the materials reclaimed from unwanted electronics are used as raw materials in the manufacturing of new products.

will not be landfilled or illegally exported. You can drop off any of the acceptable products at designated Return-It Electronics Collection Sites without charge and be assured they will be recycled responsibly.

OBITUARIES
LUKIV David
GREGSON John Edward 1919 ~ 2012 Jack Gregson (Major Ret’d) died peacefully in his home at 92 years of age surrounded by his family. Born and educated in Victoria, he joined the Canadian Scottish Regiment prior to WWII. Served overseas during the war. Returned to Victoria and joined Canada Customs. Met and married his loving wife Jackie at the Canadian Scottish Officer’s Mess. He left Victoria with Canada Customs and worked throughout BC, and finished his career while living in Abbotsford. In Abbotsford he served the community volunteering on the Hospital Board, The Abbotsford Air Show Committee and the Rotary Club. He moved back home to Victoria in 2003. Survived by Jackie, his wife of 61 years, children David (Dianne), Maggie (Al), Eric (Lorna), Pam (Royce), Joan (Larry). He enjoyed his 10 grandchildren and 3 great grand-daughters. Family Memorial to follow. In lieu of flowers remembrances may be made to a charity of your choice. Condolences at: remembering.ca “The Scotch is Gone It’s Time to go Home�
After a long stay in hospital David passed way at Mission Memorial Hospital on June 25th, 2012. He was a strong person, very optimistic and fought his illness to the end until his strength and body could no longer endure. Throughout his life he met and touched many people’s lives, family and friends as we all do. People liked and loved him; he was always happy, most of the time easy going. He seemed to have a smile and perhaps a joke or two to tell. The one thing he loved to do was cook and many that knew him shared this time with fine food and drink. David was predeceased by his loving wife Elizabeth Lukiv (nee Kallai) on October 12th, 1996 and now with his passing they have been reunited in heaven. He is survived by his two sons Bryant and Lorne and daughter Sharon and their families. Together, David and Elizabeth are now watchful over the 6 grandchildren and 16 great grandchildren they have left behind. He will be missed, remembered and loved by all. The family also wish at this time to thank all the staff at Mission Memorial Hospital, Ridge Meadow’s Rehab, Abbotsford and Surrey Rehab for all the care given to David. A special thanks to Dr. Nemanishen, who looked after dad for a very long time, (he got his wings Dr. Nem). Also we thank the staff at Hillcrest Clinic for setting appointments and Dr. De Klerk, Dr. Wong and Dr. Jackson for being there when Dr. Nemanishen wasn’t. At this time we would also like to give a special thank you to the staff and friends at The Cedars where David was loved and lovingly called home. Every time he was in hospital he could hardly wait to go back. Each one of you became like family. As David would say, “I’ll catch you when I see you� and “I am doing the best I can�. The family will always remember the loving care you have shown to our father, grandfather and great grandfather, David.
