Shop teacher skeptical of ed minister’s assurance

Katie Bartel The Progress
Even though the B.C. Education Minister has admitted there are safety concerns in shop classes, his words rang hollow for a Chilliwack teacher who’s been pressing the school district and government to improve safety for more than three years now. In a back-to-school media conference call on Tuesday, when Minister George Abbott was asked about the growing concern of large class sizes for industrial education, he acknowledged the difficulties shop teachers face. Shops that were designed for no more than 24 students are running anywhere from 25 to 35. As well, in an environment that regularly operates heavy duty equipment, some classes also have additional untrained educational assistants in them, requiring even more teacher supervision. Abbott, who met with the BC Technology Education Association in January, said he’d like to see more shopspecific training for educational assistants, and said the size issue is something the ministry continues to look into. “I do think the technology association made some really good points to me and the ministry about safety in shop classes,” said Abbott. However, due to last year’s “heated” labour relations between the teachers’ federation and the ministry, he said conversations ceased, and the government has not yet moved ahead with any plans for improvement. For Eric Munshaw, Mt. Slesse middle school teacher, and member of the BC Technology Education Association, that’s not good enough. It’s not just a concern, it’s unsafe, he said. But unfortunately, “I think it will take an accident or two to really bring it to the surface.” Munshaw doesn’t believe improvements will be made until next year at the earliest.

Draft community plan for the Chilliwack River Valley, Cultus Lake, ready for public review Robert Freeman The Progress
A draft community plan for the Chilliwack River Valley area has some flaws that range from minor to major, according to some area residents. But there will be a public hearing Sept. 12 to hear about those perceived flaws, and a number of public information meetings before the draft plan goes back to the Fraser Valley Regional District board for approval. The draft plan was two years
in the making through a household survey, three open houses, 10 advisory planning committee meetings and a number of technical studies. If adopted, the plan will apply to the Chilliwack River Valley, Columbia Valley, and much of the land surrounding Cultus Lake. Electoral Area E is home to about 3,400 people, and a tourist destination for about two million campers, fishermen and outdoor enthusiasts who visit the area every year.
It’s that recreational use that is overshadowed by industrial interests in the draft plan, according to Glen Thompson, spokesman for the Friends of the Chilliwack River Valley. “What we are proposing, we’d like to balance the heavy industry use with recreational uses,” he said, with stronger language to that effect in the draft plan. He said some land-use designations in the draft appear to leave residents “exposed to weird situations” like a patch of river bed in the Agricultural

Land Reserve, which could be approved for a non-farm use like gravel mining. He also said more forest clearcuts could become more visible, if language in the draft isn’t tightened up. In a letter to the FVRD, the president of the Lindell Beach Resort Association said he is “adamantly opposed” to parts of the draft and would “vigorously challenge” them at the Sept. 12 public hearing.

Two FVRD directors making NDP nomination bids Robert Freeman The Progress
Wendy Bales and Dennis Adamson, electoral area directors at the Fraser Valley Regional District, are running for NDP nominations in Chilliwack and in Abbotsford-Mission. If Bales wins the nomination in Abbotsford-Mission, she could go toe-to-toe with B.C. Liberal MLA Randy Hawes, if he decides to run for re-election in the May 14 provincial election. Bales has been an outspoken critic of a regional gravel removal plan spearheaded by Hawes at the
Helmet saves scooter kid’s life: RCMP
FVRD. Adamson, also a critic of the gravel plan, could go toe-to-toe with Chilliwack MLA John Les, if Les decides to run for re-election. But both NDP nomination candidates, Bales from the Lake Errock area and Adamson from the Yale area, say they are not oneissue candidates and are familiar with the issues facing urban area residents. “I’ve been working hard on community issues, not just one thing, over the last decade, and not just in my neighbourhood, but in AbbyMission too,” Bales said. Bales was involved in the public
opposition that defeated a P3 water facility in Abbotsford, and now she is working to reverse the “downgrading” of the Mission hospital. “The hospital went from being one of the two best to being a shell of what it used to be,” she said. But Bales acknowledged she has an “uphill” battle for the NDP nomination as candidate Preet Rai has a head start in the campaign. Rai was vetted by the party executive in July while Bales is just starting that process. A third candidate, Lynn Perrin, stepped down Sunday as president of the NDP’s riding association in Abbotsford-Mission to make her
bid for the nomination. The challenge for the candidates now is to sign up as many new party members as they can to bring with them to the nomination meeting. No date has been set for that meeting. Kirsten Hauge, president of the Chilliwack riding association, could not be reached for comment on the status of the nomination race here. Although Adamson represents the Yale area at the FVRD board, the candidate said he is “very familiar” with the issues facing Chilliwack residents like the closure of the hospital rehab unit, and
the impact of waste-to-energy facilities under consideration by Metro Vancouver. Adamson said his involvement with political and day-to-day financial issues at the FVRD since 2008 has given him a wide range of experience, but now he wants to carry that forward to the provincial government level as MLA. “The policy stuff that drives our economy and decides our lifestyle is provincial,” he said. “I want to be in a position so I can help build a better world.” Neither Hawes nor Les have decided yet if they will run for reelection.

Premier Christy Clark is planning a preelection cabinet shuffle as early as next week to replace SurreyCloverdale MLA Kevin Falcon and other ministers who are likely to leave. Falcon announced Wednesday he has stepped down as finance minister and won’t run in the 2013 election, because his wife is expecting a second child, at around the same time as the next B.C. budget is due. “Putting aside the timing associated with the newest addition to our family in February, I genuinely believe the premier requires a finance minister who will prepare a budget

A bike helmet saved the life of a 10-year-old who scootered out of his Promontory driveway into traffic late Monday, police say. “There is no doubt that his choice to wear his helmet that day saved his life,” RCMP Const. Tracy Wolbeck said. “He received an injury to his head that could have easily been fatal, if not for his helmet,” she said. Police responded to reports that a child had been hit by a vehicle at about 6 p.m. But upon arrival Wolbeck said the officers discovered the youngster was riding his scooter down the driveway of a condo complex when he entered the roadway and struck the side of a (moving) vehicle. Police are reminding parents not to place too much faith in helmets, which won’t offer much protection if not properly fitted. “A helmet that does not fit will not absorb the impact of a hit or a fall and could case serious injuries,” police said in a news release. “Please ensured that children not only have a helmet to wear, but that the helmet fits properly on their head.” Parents should also make sure their children are aware of the dangers and risks associated with riding their bikes, skateboard and scooters near traffic.

His 100th birthday party was organized by friend Doug Sprague. Just a few weeks ago, on Aug. 1, Patience gave his 44-year-old granddaughter, Shellene Van Der Beke, away on her wedding day.

Strange fish in Fraser not invasive carp Jeff Nagel Black Press
Unusual fish caught in the Fraser River near Lillooet and Lytton are common carp, not the highly invasive Asian silver carp that have infested some U.S. river systems.

fish caught so far are European or common carp. They’ve lived in some Interior lakes for decades, but it’s rare to see them in the mainstream Fraser. Aboriginal fishermen near Lillooet netted several carp recently. Watershed Watch Salmon Society executive director Craig Orr said he’d be concerned for the Fraser’s salmon stocks if Asian silver carp had arrived in the river. “They’re an extremely invasive
and destructive species,” he said. According to DFO, Asian silver carp compete for food with local fish, prey on their larvae and cause serious habitat damage. They’re also known for jumping out of the water – often right into motor boats – and can pose a hazard to boaters and water skiers. There’s a concerted effort underway in Ontario to keep invasive carp from the U.S. out of Canadian waters. B.C. banned the possession

New crackdown aims to curb distracted drivers Cellphone talking or texting third top crash cause after speeding, drinking Jeff Nagel Black Press
ICBC and police are revving up their campaign against distracted driving, saying it’s now the third leading cause of car crash fatalities in B.C. Enforcement is being stepped up for the Labour Day weekend and officers will be
checking for distracted drivers throughout September. The crackdown came as a new Ipsos Reid poll was released showing 40 per cent of cellphone owners admit they’ve recently used their hand-held phone while driving despite overwhelming acceptance distracted driving is risky, especially texting.
“The ability to connect with anyone at any time through our mobile phones has led to a serious problem on our roads,” Justice Minister Shirley Bond said. Police say many drivers try to hide their mobile devices from view by using them from their laps but officers will use a variety of tactics to bust them and hand out $167 fines.

and make taxation and spending measures that he or she will be prepared to defend in the upcoming election campaign.” Clark appointed Attorney General Shirley Bond as acting finance minister, but said it is a shortterm arrangement and a new cabinet lineup will be announced “in the coming days” to prepare for the May 2013 election. The second-place finisher in the 2011 B.C. Liberal Party leadership race, Falcon was appointed finance minister and deputy premier by Clark. He has overseen the windup of the harmonized sales tax, which battered the government’s popularity and pushed Gordon Campbell out of the premier’s office. Falcon’s current budget projects that the province will balance the books again after a string of deficits that was extended to this year by the repayment of a $1.6 billion transition fund from Ottawa for adopting the HST. After being rejected in a province-wide referendum, the tax comes to an end next spring, just as the province is preparing for a scheduled election in May of 2013. NDP finance critic Bruce Ralston questioned whether Falcon’s promised balanced budget can be delivered. Natural gas revenues have fallen with the price of gas this year, and Falcon’s planned sale of government assets may not come in time to generate the needed cash, Ralston said. Education Minister George Abbott, another leadership contender, said Tuesday he will soon make announcement about his political future as well. Energy Minister Rich Coleman’s future has also been the subject of speculation. In his resignation statement, Falcon praised Clark as a “great campaigner and communicator.” He wouldn’t rule out a return to politics at some point. Falcon was first elected MLA for SurreyCloverdale in the B.C. Liberal sweep of 2001. His first cabinet post was minister of state for deregulation, and he served as minister of health and transportation before moving to finance in March 2011.

Campers at the Weaver Lake Campground were briefly evacuated on Saturday night while RCMP worked to contain a fire. The fire broke out in the Agassiz area campground at about 11 p.m. on August 25. Campground hosts were the first responders, keeping the fire down with their fire extinguishers and shovels. Police arrived and evacuated the campground. They fought the fire for about half an hour, until firefighters arrived on scene with a water truck. The fire kept reigniting, RCMP said, and quickly covered the area. The fire had the “potential for destruction,” said Cst. Tracy Wolbeck. “The quick thinking and action on the part of the campground hosts prevented the spread of what could have been a large forest fire,” said Cst. Tracy Wolbeck. “We would like to thank the campground hosts as well as the campers at the campground for their cooperation with this incident.” Police are unsure what may have started the fire but speculate it could have been a propane tank left close to the fire. There were no injuries as a result of the fire.

OCP public hearing set for Sept. 12
“ ”
Shop teacher cites safety concerns Safety from Front “The problem is all the class lists have already been made, all the teaching assignments are made, we’re starting next week with stuff that really can’t be changed easily through the school year,” said Munshaw. “I’d be gobsmacked if they made a change partway through the school year. It would take weeks to set up, teaching loads would have to be redistributed, it would be a nightmare.” Munshaw questions if he’ll see improvements before the end of his teaching career. “My spidey sense tells me nothing will happen until the election in the spring,” he said. “There may be a change in philosophy with a change in government, who knows. In the meantime, I expect numbers will continue to build. “For me, if it doesn’t change this year, it will be the end of my career I think. I just feel like I’m charging at windmills here.”

A price to pay for cross-border shopping
The Chilliwack
Progress
R aeside
Canadian consumers are heading south for an overnight stay and shopping to take advantage of new cross-border allowances and the high dollar. Cross-border trips in June, the first month the higher exemptions took effect, were up to levels not seen since 1972. Way back then, the dollar was also above par, and gas prices were also low. Taking a trip to the U.S. was a breeze. It seems many are willing to spend the time in border line-ups and pay for the extra gas to save about 14 per cent on many items. They also want to have access to a wider variety in clothing and other consumables. The downside is that local retailers are taking a hit, and when they do, they cut back on new hires and those much-hated taxes (which pay for health, education and other important programs) take a hit, as well. Retailers in border communities like Surrey, Langley and Abbotsford are particularly hard-hit. Canadians are understandably looking for bargains. But there may come a time when the lure of cheaper U.S. products will come back and haunt them. A long-term decline in retail jobs and declining tax revenue can do some major damage to the B.C. economy. Tax shortfalls must be made up somewhere, so that means everyone (including crossborder shoppers) will pay more. With fewer jobs, it will be that much harder to pay those added taxes. More likely though, as the U.S. economy rebounds as housing sales are cautiously expected to do, the loonie will eventually drop in value. This will greatly diminish the advantage of shopping down south. ~ Black Press
B.C. V iews
Studying projects to death in British Columbia VICTORIA – NDP leader Adrian Dix has announced that one of his first acts as premier would be to withdraw B.C. from the joint review of the Enbridge pipeline proposal from Alberta to Kitimat. The two-year federal-led review will be mostly done by next May, but Dix proposes to start a new provincial assessment to examine at the B.C. portion. He doesn’t know how much it would cost, and under questioning he all but admitted the intention is to study the pipeline to death. Fresh from a summer tour of the pipeline route to reaffirm solidarity with its opponents, Dix is hardly in a position to consider anything but maximum resistance. As Premier Christy Clark did in her showdown with Alberta over benefits, Dix hinted that provincial permits for river and wildlife crossings would be made as expensive as possible, if not refused.

The same fate awaits the Kinder Morgan plan to twin the existing Trans-Mountain oil pipeline to Burnaby. Dix left the impression that he would undo the years of work that have gone into bringing some rational sense to environmental approvals that can be, and have been, dragged out for Tom years. The B.C. hearFletcher ings would provide another platform for opponents, and more complaints to justify refusal at the provincial level, to go along with court cases and direct-action protests. Speaking of which, the frontal assault by agitators at the federal Enbridge hearings has mostly petered out. After 4,000-odd people were signed up to speak, most
didn’t bother, and some hearings were cancelled. Apparently slacktivists such as “Jonathan L. Seagull” and “Cave Man” didn’t make it out of their Vancouver basement suites to tell the panel oil is bad. Professional environmentalists are now wringing their hands over Ottawa’s decision to leave smallerscale reviews to the province. This means, for example, that there won’t be a duplicate federal review of the urgently needed refit of the John Hart Dam on the Campbell River. One reader suggested that environmental pioneer Roderick HaigBrown is still spinning in his grave over the damming of this legendary salmon river. Perhaps, but that was in 1947. Does it make sense today to lard pointless bureaucracy onto a reconstruction that replaces wooden pipes and provides earthquake protection, without expand-
ing river impact? NDP environment critic Rob Fleming hammered away at the B.C. Liberals about this in the spring, reminding them that Auditor General John Doyle had exposed a lack of resources in the B.C. Environmental Assessment Office, even before Ottawa’s changes. Fleming makes it sound like a huge new burden has been dumped on B.C. False. Provincial assessment already must be done with the participation of Fisheries and Oceans Canada, Transport Canada, the provincial ministries of natural resources and energy and mines, and of course aboriginal communities. This is why it’s so long and expensive. And don’t be fooled into believing that a federal review would go out and count the tadpoles and caribou again. It’s only the desk jobs that have proliferated.

There weren’t just two levels of duplicate review, but three. Earlier in their mandate, the B.C. Liberals exempted major projects such as mines and energy generation from local government control, citing the “provincial interest” similar to the federal authority over projects that cross provincial borders. I agree with the NDP that B.C. environmental assessment needs more resources, in particular to do the follow-up on approved projects, as called for by the auditor general. Forest management needs more money too. All the more reason not to waste resources on political gestures.

down over the next two years. As a result, the administrative functions that are handled by the ASU in Chilliwack will be consolidated in other centres. While this is a difficult situation for those affected, our government received a strong mandate to return to a balanced budget in the medium term and we are delivering on that commitment by finding necessary efficiencies in government spending across all government departments and agencies, including the Canadian Forces. I have been advised that no decisions have been made as to how many positions will be affected at the ASU at this time.
Green drop off appreciated There is a community minded company that deals in supplying gravel, soil etc. located on Promontory Road. They offer free green drop off as a courtesy to the citizens of Chilliwack. This, however, will probably not be available in the near future because no matter how many signs, how many times individuals are told, “only green material”, the employees there have to spend their valuable time removing other garbage such as bricks, tar paper or whatever from this
area. I don’t have green pick up and ways of stockpiling my green ‘stuff’ until I have a load big enough to justify going to the regular dump, so this was a great service where I could pop in with 3-4 bags of green stuff and deposit them there. Thank you, to the ones who cannot abide by the rules and now we all must suffer the consequences of your actions. Great! Eileen Molnar
doesn’t worry about oil spills as cleanup cost is just a fraction of generated income. Last year BP, for example, was asked by the US government to pay another 7 billion dollars for the 2010 oil catastrophe in the gulf region. That same year BP made a whopping 27 billion dollars in profits alone. To those people who have lived through the horrors of an oil spill, one Bible verse must ring very true: “The love of money is a root of all kinds of evil.” (1 Timothy 6:10) Mario C.

Ha nds - IPL a nd F illers Question:
I have noticed that as I have aged, my hands are looking thin and bony and are covered brown spots. What can I do to feel more confident using my hands? – Sheila W., Mission
Answer:
When it comes to revealing ones true age, the hands speak volumes. Most of us pay close attention to our faces in the terms of sun protection and skin care. In general the hands are an area that we tend to neglect. We have two wonderful procedures to give you confidence and more youthful hands. Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) does wonders to rid the hands of brown pigmentation. Within 2 to 3 sessions patients will notice a remarkable improvement. The fat in the hands begins to degenerate with age. Couple that with sun damage and collagen loss the skin thins out and you have more visible bones and veins. Fillers are then used to plump up the hands. Patients have instant gratification that is long lasting. Fillers can also provide continued improvement due to their ability to stimulate collagen. A good hand cream and sunblock will help to maintain the great results! – Dr. Marianna Snyman

tion of such a pipeline, once construction is finished, business is quickly scaled down to basic maintenance. How Enbridge runs their maintenance programs, however, has obviously caused many raised eyebrows following the news of ruptured pipelines and inadequately serviced equipment. Any amount of money generated through such a project could never pay for the damage done by an oil spill, and the horrifying effects on our beautiful B.C. environment and its people would be felt for many generations.

government’s inaction concerning unreasonably high gas prices (i.e. price gouging) when oil companies generate billions in profits, speaks for itself. The carrot dangled in front of politicians’ noses by Enbridge and Kinder Morgan, who promise to create thousands of jobs through their oil pipeline venture, is nothing else than a timebomb and also works as a litmus test of our elected leaders’ loyalty to the people of British Columbia. Although it is true that many jobs would be created for the construc-

Those receiving affected letters are not necessarily losing their jobs. All efforts will be made to ensure any job reductions are attained through attrition. Finally, I have heard numerous concerns from your readers who believe that I am purchasing the full colour, full page ads regarding the ASU that are running in the local papers. Readers can rest assured that these ads are part of campaign funded by the Union of National Defence Employees (UNDE) and the Public Service Alliance of Canada (PSAC) and that I have nothing to do with them.
Oil pipelines are time bombs When thinking of oil companies and their executives, I am always reminded of the comic figure with dollar signs on his eyeballs. There are three types of organizations who are driven by a seemingly un-quenchable thirst for money. One of them, of course, is so called organized crime—next are large corporations such as BIG oil, and then there are our various levels of government. When it comes to tax-revenue, politicians are easily seduced by large corporations, to the point that even illegal activities are conveniently ignored. Our

First, and most importantly, I have been assured by Minister of National Defence, Peter Mackay, that the Canadian Forces will continue to maintain a permanent presence in Chilliwack at the current location as some personnel transition elsewhere to meet emerging needs.

to be removed from his $240,000-a-year consulting job. NDP house leader John Horgan called for the second year of MacMinn’s consulting contract to be terminated, and asked if taxpayers are paying him for his car, club memberships or pension in addition to extending his salary. MacMinn stepped down last year after 54 years as a legislative clerk, the longest term in Commonwealth history. He served as chief clerk from 1993 until last year, when he agreed to make way for his long-time assistant Craig James. Horgan said the succession took place without consulting the official opposition, and was “orchestrated” by MacMinn to include the consulting arrangement that extended his salary and benefits for two years. He said committee members don’t know what MacMinn is supposed to do as a consultant, but public accounts show he was paid $250,000 plus $22,000 in travel expenses last year. B.C. Liberal members of the committee agreed Tuesday to review MacMinn’s position, once a report is prepared on his duties. ~ Black Press

Normally, at that time, campers would have been in their cabins getting ready for dinner. But that day, it was decided they’d spend an extra half hour down at the beach. “They have no idea why they did that, it was just something they decided to do,” said Andres.

Hibiscus brings touch of the tropics to Chilliwack gardens
N in ow yo av ur ail ar ab ea le
Move over Hawaii, we’ve got our own beautiful hibiscus to light up our summer gardens. Perhaps one of the most under-used summer flowering shrub is the hardy Hibiscus syriacus althaea or Rose of
Sharon. It has been cultivated in England since the 16th century, but it is only over the past few years that, because of today’s many new varieties, it has become a more mainstream plant. Hardy to zone six,
and possibly some high zone fives, it is one of the few flowering shrubs that opens in succession from July through to October. Once the hydrangeas finish, there is a distinct lack of garden colour from flowering shrubs,
and that’s why these plants are so important. Hibiscus are generally the last flowering shrub to show leaves in spring but they more than make up for it by being the last hurrah in the fall garden. Hibiscus can be
somewhat difficult to get established. They need full sun or just a touch of shade and a little tender loving care to get going and to perform their best. Hibiscus grow just fine in a wide variety of well drained soils,

Feinberg
Al Stewart at Heron Reserve fundraiser Jennifer Feinberg The Progress
Tech N9ne brings back its urban edge The Progress
Tech N9ne is bringing back his hardcore hiphop to Chilliwack with an all-ages show in Evergreen Hall on Sept. 8. With signature face paint and give-it-all-you-got attitude, he doesn’t mind the title as one of the hardest working showmen in rap. He’s been described as ‘bizarre hardcore’ and his lyrics definitely require a parental advisory. Tech N9ne, born Aaron Yates, is co-founder of Strange Music, an indie label. But with a million records sold, tons of collaborations, his music on TV, in video games and movies, he’s become a force to be reckoned with in the underground hip hop world. Last year he did about 200 shows, and his mantra is: “We will not rest until the whole world knows our story.” The Progress caught up with him before he heads out on his Live in Canada tour, and later in the season to Europe. Tech N9ne openly discusses
artistic freedom, his favourite foods and even reveals something personal that people don’t know about him. Here’s how the Q&A went recently: You completely sold out our Evergreen Hall in Chilliwack last year with your last show. What are you going to do this year? What am I not going to do? I would like to share my thoughts with the rest of the world, in a cluster*** of wildness. Why make your show an all-ages event? I think if you keep it young, your song is always strong. I learned that from old song called Street Life. So what else is up this fall? I’m heading out to do 24 shows across Canada. Then I’m going to finish my album in October and then fly to Europe in November to do 36 shows. Have you named the new CD yet? Yeah, but I can’t tell anyone yet. I like to keep things a little secretive. I really don’t know where I’m going yet. I just want it to take me.
I know the album really is bigger than ever musically, and it has weird sounds all throughout it. I won’t say what kind. Are you really the hardest working showman in hiphop? You routinely do more than 100 minutes on stage. That show alone is a workout. I lose so much weight on the tour. But then I come home and Kansas City has so many food spots, whether it’s my favourites like barbecue or Italian food. How important is the energy coming off the crowd? You once said you felt when you were younger, you would have either become a gangbanger or a psychiatrist. Do you still feel like you can sometimes be your fans’ shrink? As they’re sad, as they’re mad, as they’re confused, we’re all a little confused. That’s what I enjoy the most. I have energy and I show it off to my fans. When I’m up there, nervous and hoping I don’t stumble, I start to tap in to all the people smiling at me, and the energy they’re putting out. Just the idea that I can bring so much hap-
smile of the week
piness, that feels so positive to me. What’s it like being on tour with Madchild and Krizz and all those guests? You must like collaborating. I really do, man. I like mashups. When you work together with two or more brains - it’s like crazy and creative. Something you wouldn’t expect often comes up. Of course, your lyrics and show come with a parental advisory due to the explicit nature. Is all that swearing really necessary? I have to be able to say what I want to say. I don’t use curse words because I don’t have any other words to use. I say what I want. I write what I want. I do what I want. As long as I’m not mean to people, or hurting any babies, I’m good. Tell us something we don’t know. I used to have anxiety attacks on stage. I want to do well, but my lyrics are so intricate. My body used to shake but I learned how to stop it. I know that my fans know all the music and all the words. I worry that if I stumble they’ll hear it.

Celebrate the 10th Anniversary of the Great Blue Heron Nature Reserve in style with a Gala Dinner and a concert by singer-songwriter Al Stewart at the Minter Gardens Conservatory on Sept. 7. The glittering gala is the Nature Reserve’s major fundraiser and only 200 tickets are available, says spokesperson Janet Hutchison. There are so many fundraisers and galas out there to support, the Al Stewart organizers wanted to do something a little different. “The reason why we chose a concert is we wanted to make it a really fun evening.” Al Stewart is best known for the folkrock hit, Year of the Cat, and always puts on an enjoyable show. There’s a lot to be thankful for and celebrate the accomplishments of the Chilliwack not-for-profit organization. “We’ve had a lot of community support.” It’s helped them to offer a range of free public nature programs, environmental education and the restoration of the habitat at the site. “Ten years seems long but it is really just a beginning,” says Hutchison. “We’ve grown a lot and we really wanted to celebrate where we’ve come, and where we’re going, and we want to share that with the community.” The events starts with a welcome and bar at 6 p.m., with buffet dinner at 7 p.m. and the concert at 8 p.m. See more at www.alstewart.com/ home.html Tickets are $125 through Paypal, or call 604-823-6603 or herons@shawbiz.ca The dinner and concert will be held in the Minter Gardens Conservatory 52892 Bunker Road, Rosedale.

Some days, has it ever occurred to you that hospitality has become a luxury? To me, true hospitality is an attitude of service that comes naturally to some while others must learn it. For Nancy Barker, hospitality was something that appeared to be fun and taking the practice to the next level, it became an ever developing career. Nancy’s parents left
their native Scotland and immigrated to Chicago in the mid-50s where her father had been hired by the gas industry. “Dad had received his gas works degree in Scotland and after the war ended, my parents wanted to leave Europe. Dad had the opportunity of either working in South Africa or Chicago and they chose Chicago,” she said. Two years later,
they moved to Vancouver since her father had been hired as the chief engineer for Inland Gas which is now known as Fortis. As a youngster, Nancy enjoyed sports and was into baseball, lacrosse, soccer and long distance running. Her father had always intended that Nancy should be either a nurse or a teacher. One of her aunts had worked with

up a hotel you need to be prepared to do anything and everything and that’s exactly what I did. It’s so inspiring being part of an opening team,” she enthused. Nancy routinely put in 14-hour days. It was a demanding job but one that offered her the ability to gain a lot of technical knowledge; a know-how that catapulted her into the position of catering manager at the Four Seasons Hotel, three years later. Wanting to move up in the industry, she decided to move quite literally across the street from the Waterfront. “The Delta Hotel was purchased and it was being changed to the Metropolitan Hotel. The focus was to be not so much on the hotel itself but on the restaurant which was to be known as Diva at the Met. I became the Director of Catering and had the opportunity to work with an amazing group of people in the hospitality industry. I left my position in 2001 when my husband and I
had decided to move to Chilliwack,” she said. Shortly after moving to Chilliwack, Nancy began commuting to a teaching position at BCIT. Five years ago, she left BCIT for UFV where she’s the instructor of the hospitality/event planning course.
In her down time, Nancy enjoys gardening and her three German shepherds. In 2006, after one of her dogs died and she was recovering from a dangerous, horse riding accident, Nancy took up sheep herding. “For me and for my dog, who
had watched the other one die, this is when we began to heal physically and mentally. It’s a mentally challenging sport and more challenging than it looks. Aside from competing, I am now teaching it and it’s something that I really enjoy.”

Today we celebrate the economic and social contributions of our workers.
Celebrated on the first Monday in September since the 1880s, Labour Day in Canada can be traced to a worker’s strike that took place in April of 1872. The Toronto Typographical Union was at the center of the Toronto Trades Assembly’s first significant demonstration for worker’s rights. Typographical Union workers, who were breaking the law at the time by simply being members of a trade union, went on strike to campaign for a nine-hour work day, only to witness two dozen of their union leaders be imprisoned. A parade was staged to show support for the union’s workers as well as its imprisoned leaders. Another parade was scheduled for September, and Canadian Prime Minister Sir John McDonald eventually promised to repeal Canada’s anti-union laws. Originally celebrated in the spring, Canadian Labour Day is now celebrated on the same

day as Labor Day in the United States. Also similar to the U.S. Labor Day, post offices and many businesses are closed on Labour Day, as are schools and other educational establishments. The similarities between the two holidays don’t end there, as many Canadians take advantage of the Labour Day weekend to enjoy one last summer getaway, or enjoy a picnic or barbecue with family and friends. Also, fairs, festivals – like the Chilliwack Bluegrass Festival at Heritage Park this weekend – and fireworks displays are
common throughout the country on Labour Day weekend. Football also plays a big role in Labour Day weekend events, both here and in the U.S. The long weekend is typically the opening weekend for many college football teams in the U.S. While in Canada, the Labour Day Classic is played over the Labour Day weekend and features the CFL rivals squaring off against one another. The competing teams do not change from year to year, making this a Labour Day tradition Canadian football fans greatly enjoy annually.

important legislature to impact workers in the following century. Union pioneers petitioned their employers for a reduction in the number of hours worked - asking that their workweek be reduced to six, 9-hour days. They formed an organization dubbed the Nine Hours Movement and argued that reducing working hours would benefit both workers and society as more time would be spent with family and community. Employers scoffed at their claims and rejected their demands. At the time it was a crime to be member of a union in Canada yet in a
The rights that workers have today such as a 40hour work week, minimum wage, parental leave and paid holidays were hard fought for in times when labourers had few benefits, no voice and worked in perilous conditions. Many of the protections and rights that today’s employees have exist because of unions. Labour Day is celebrated on the first Monday of every September and this year on September 3 it will be in a show of solidarity for working people across the country and beyond. The origins of this national holiday are rooted in the history of the Canadian labour movement that began in the time of Prime Minister Sir John A. Macdonald. From a bold stand by a group of Ontario printers in May of 1872 grew the most

courageous act of defiance, the Toronto Typographical Union went on strike to secure the nine-hour workday. A parade was held which drew some 10,000 spectators. The workers went on strike. Many lost their job and were forced to relocate. Their employers brought in replacement workers and used this so called ‘conspiracy’ to have 24 members of the movement arrested and jailed. SEPT 3 On June 14, 1872 Macdonald passed the Trade Union Act that legalized union activity, freed the workers and endeared him to the working class. The Toronto printers strike paved the way for unions across North America to demand a 54hour workweek. Canadian trade unionists have ever since, celebrated this day that has been set aside to honor ‘those who labour.’ The first Labour Day parade was held in Winnipeg in 1894, and was two miles long. Today approximately 30 percent of BC’s workforce is covered by a collective agreement. As Labour Day has evolved it remains a day of celebration, solidarity, speeches and recreation. The issues facing workers have also evolved. Today’s labour unions negotiate on behalf of a changing workforce in an ever-evolving workplace. British Columbians have different challenges to deal with, whether it is record-high housing prices, increasing levels of debt and living longer. Minimum wage, overtime, working conditions for farmworkers, health and safety and access to affordable daycare are all important labour issues. This Labour Day, take a moment to reflect on the history and significance of the day.

Newcomer brings size and skill to Chiefs It is often said that a team’s best recruiters are its players. If you treat them right and run things the right way, word will get around. Ryan Donohoe is the perfect example. The 20-year-old was born and raised in Peterborough, Ontario. Chilliwack Chiefs goaltender Mitch Gillam was his best bud. Gillam came west to play junior A hockey last season and never let Donohoe hear the end of it. “You’ve got to come to Chilliwack,” Gillam said, hounding his friend at every opportunity. Donohoe gave it only passing thought until the offseason, when circumstances forced him to consider alternatives. “I was traded from Peterborough (the OJHL Stars) to Wellington (the Dukes) about halfway through last year,” Donohoe explained. “My rights were supposed to go back to Peterborough after the season was done, but that never happened. The Lindsay Muskies bought the Stars and my rights went to Lindsay.” Donohoe didn’t have much interest in relocated to Lindsay, a small little town about 40 minutes from home. “There’s not much going on there,” Donohoe said. Gillam’s sales-pitch kept going through his head. “Every time we hung
out he pushed it, the building and the fans and the coaches. He kind of made it sound like a no-brainer,” Donohoe laughed. “I played four years in Ontario and figured it was time for something different. The BCHL has a rep as a highly scouted league with a lot more skill, and I can tell that’s true just from the exhibition games I’ve played.” Donohoe’s biggest transition isn’t on the ice, where his six-footone frame and soft hands will help him make an immediate impact. Off the ice, he’s got a whole lot more to get used to, and he’s happy to have his best friend helping him to get settled in. “I’m really close to my family and my friends, so that’s the hardest thing I’ve got to deal with right now,” Donohoe said. “And I don’t even have internet right now. But all the guys have been really nice and really made me feel welcome. Can’t ask for much more than that.” Donohoe and the Chiefs are in exhibition action this weekend. Chilliwack visits the Surrey Eagles Friday night, and hosts Surrey Saturday night at Prospera Centre. Puck drop is 7 p.m. It’s all in preparation for the following weekend’s BCHL Showcase, and you can see the full schedule to the right of this story.

Chilliwack natives in last weekend’s Subaru Ironman Canada race in Penticton turned in a mixed bag of results. Some good. Some not so good and some right in the middle. As chronicled in Tuesday’s sports section, Anthony Toth did very well, finishing
fourth overall. His training partner, Scott Curry, wasn’t quite so fortunate. Curry looked good early, posting the third fastest swim time at 54 minutes and 16 seconds — a full three minutes faster than Toth. Curry posted the fastest bike time in the

influence of hockey in Canada. Donatelli said there were 850 speedskaters when he first began in the sport, and that number is the same today. All these successes, and the nearly five decades of volunteer work saw Donatelli earn Speed Skating Canada’s Coaches Award of Excellence for 2012. “I just love working with kids. It’s very gratifying,” he said. Donatelli coaches about 35 children currently, and says he’s unsure when he’ll retire. “I’m just going year by year,” he said.

A speedskating pioneer with a Sardis connection was recently honoured by the national association for his 46 years of service to the sport as a coach. Sardis Fliers coach George Donatelli didn’t learn to skate until he was 30 years old. But that didn’t stop him from getting his children, James and Eden, into the sport shortly after the Mission Leisure Centre was constructed in the 1970s. Eden, almost two years
younger than her brother, took to the sport immediately. “She put herself in [speedskating],” he recalled with a gentle chuckle, and everyone could see she had the makings of an exceptional athlete and was setting Canadian records in short order. Eden went on to compete in the world championships in Montreal at 16 years old, winning a gold medal in the 500 m. She went on to win silver and bronze medals at the 1988 Calgary Olympics, plus a host of honours at numerous international and national competitions. She was inducted into

Ounce of prevention Every successful sports organization understands the value of using a foam roller, writes Paul Nicolls
The Chilliwack Chiefs are about to start another season, and assistant coach Paul Nicolls remains very busy. In his final bi-weekly column of 2012, the Xceed Training owner/operator talks about the many benefits of sports to children. Prehabbing is a term coined for exercises that can assist in injury prevention. Prehabbing, in theory, helps correct physical issues created by life or lifestyle away from the gym or playing field. Let’s say you find yourself in the following situation. You spend hours every day hunched over a computer. Over time this causes your shoulders to roll forward and tighten. That’s bad enough, but now let’s say you go out and try to play tennis. Since your shoulders are already tight, they lack stability and range of motion. Your body has a knack for compensating, however, and you end up using more of your elbows when you swing the racquet. That, combined with poor joint alignment caused by poor posture at work, produces a nasty case of tennis elbow or perhaps a rotator cuff issue. To reduce the possibility of impending injury from such a scenario you might prehab. Every successful professional sports organization and athletic performance training company understands the value of using a foam roller for prehabbing to ‘self-massage’ the body prior to dynamic warm-up or sports competition. These rollers have become so popular that it would be difficult to enter any major college weight room without encountering them. Many of the Chilliwack Chiefs will roll on the foam rollers before practice or games. Research has proven that they are an effective tool for ‘self myofascial release,’ a term used to describe the self massage of the fascial system. This system is likened to a flexible skeleton that connects the top of your head to the tips of your toes to everything else. Fascia, a thin layer of tissue weaves its way around every organ, muscle and tendon in the body. With prehab rolling, you’ll loosen the muscles supporting your upper back and shoulder rotators. You’ll feel the positive difference in every aspect of your life. So when should you do it? Prehab rolling should be done before and after workouts or games. You can do it at home when you wake up in the morning or at any point during your workout, but it’s best performed near the start of a training session. Many of these movements take no more than five to eight minutes. You owe it to yourself to find the time — it’s one of the best investments you can make in your long term health. In conclusion, if you use a foam roller only to rehab injured muscles, you’re not getting the most out of it. A roller—which looks like a firm log—can be a valuable part of a healthy runner’s warmup and cool down routine,” says Michael Clark, a physical therapist and CEO of the National Academy of Sports Medicine. Rolling improves circulation, gets the body ready for a workout and helps it recover afterward. And because rolling breaks down knots that limit range of motion, it preps muscles for stretching. As a final thought, muscular performance is not improved solely with your workouts, but in conjunction with proper nutrition, stretching, rest and prehab.

X deeply aware that an adventure is in store. Take some time to prepare your mind and body. LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23 Libra, no one will know who you truly are unless you share a few secrets. You don’t have to give everything away, but allow others in by sharing some personal information.

SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21 Sagittarius, when a past conflict resurfaces this week, push it aside because that is ancient history. It is better to focus on the positive things that are in store for you.

But this is what you have to do for lessons to be learned. AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18 Your eyes are bigger than your stomach at work this week, Aquarius. Delegate some tasks so everything goes smoothly and your project is completed on time. PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20 Learning from your weaknesses can help you to grow stronger, Pisces. Accept a challenge that is presented this week, even if it scares you.
