FVRD wants ‘observer status’ in ministry investigation Metro Vancouver ‘untrustworthy,’ says FVRD chair Gaetz Robert Freeman The Progress

The Fraser Valley Regional District is asking B.C.’s environment minister for a formal role in the investigation of “toxic” fly ash from an incinerator in Burnaby dumped at the Cache Creek landfill.

The request comes after tests showed toxic levels of leachable cadmium in the 1,800 tonnes of fly ash deposited at the landfill as far back as November, 2011, and an internal Metro Vancouver memo that appears to show the regional district tried to suppress the information.

The memo recommends a “reactive communications strategy” in which “Metro Vancouver will respond if this issue becomes public and there are interview requests from the news media.”

Talking points for Metro Vancouver officials suggested in the memo include: • the fly ash produced in the WTE process is collected instead of being released into the air; • cadmium is found throughout the waste stream and “stabilized” by the treatment of fly ash; • the Burnaby WTEF has consistently met the requirements for leachable cadmium for the past 12 years, and Metro Vancouver is investigating the cause of “these unusually elevated test results.”

• while leachable cadmium levels appears higher than allowed in Continued: XKJ/ pXx

The Progress More than 1,000 people lined up to try their luck as the doors officially opened at Chances Community Gaming Centre in Chilliwack Friday evening.

The line of people snaked through the parking lot as visitors waited for the ribbon to be cut on the sparkling new facility.

Music throbbed and elevated video screens flashed as the crowd grew.

Inside, Deputy Premier Rich Colman said the line up outside pointed to the success of the government’s initiative to modernize the gaming industry in B.C. “Obviously the people of this community have an appetite for responsible gaming,” he said.

Chilliwack Mayor Sharon Gaetz said the centre will not only provide entertainment to residents, but will also bring visitors to the community.

“It tells me we should be very proud of what’s going on in this spot.”

Rod Baker, president and CEO of Great Canadian Gaming, said the Chilliwack facility provides one less reason for people to take their money to the United States.

“Hopefully folks who have gone ‘across the line’ can find something now a little closer to home.”

Feds settle out-of-court with family of murdered inmate Robert Freeman The Progress

The family of Mountain prison inmate Jeremy Phillips, who was strangled to death by his cellmate, serial killer Michael Wayne MGray, reached an out-ofcourt settlement in May after filing a civil suit against the federal government.

But family lawyer Myer Rabin told The Progress last week he could not disclose the terms of the settlement because of a confidentiality clause.

“Hopefully, the process (of transferring maximum-

security prison inmates to lower-security) will change,” he said, in light of the BC coroner’s inquest last week and an internal investigation by the Correctional Service of Canada.

Rabin said the family was “reasonably happy” with the five recommendations made by the inquest jury, but Phillips’ mother “knows she will never get her son back, and nothing will ever change that.”

He said Phillips’ father died while he was in jail, and Jeremy wanted to be released to take care of his mother by taking a job as a

youth counsellor.

“He was planning on turning his life around,” Rabin said.

Phillips, 33, was strangled to death in his cell on Nov. 22, 2010, one week after McGray, 45, a self-proclaimed sociopath with an “urge” to kill, even while in prison, was transferred from Kent maximum-security in Agassiz to Phillips’ mediumsecurity cell at Mountain Institution nearby.

Rabin said Mountain officials were “not prepared to change” a waiting list for single-cell accommodations for McGray, but instead double-

bunked him with Phillips.

The jury is asking the CSC to authorize wardens to make exceptions to the wait list for single-cell accommodations in order to move a dangerous offender into them — and to make the change on a national level.

The jury also recommended that single-cell accommodation for all multiple killers become mandatory, “unless correctional service evidence and assessment determines that a shared accommodation is both safe and practical.”

McGray was assessed and approved for transfer,

but Rabin said officials only took into consideration his behaviour in the past year, not the psychiatric reports and the inmate’s own prior statements about his urge to kill.

“They took his word, hook, line and sinker,” Rabin said. “All they did was look at how he was in the last year.”

A spokesperson for the CSC said a review of all five recommendations is underway.

Sara Parkes said in an email to The Progress that the CSC takes the death of an inmate “very seriously,” and that the CSC voluntarily

Point reflects on being ‘Queens representative’ Roszan Holmen Black Press

His Honour Steven Point may look on his years in Victoria with satisfaction, but he’s up front that he won’t miss living in the stately Government House.

“This is fancy, but you’re also in a jail here,” he said with a chuckle. “The gates are locked and there’s security here all the time.”

After five years as B.C.’s 28th lieutenant governor, Point is eager to return to his home in Chilliwack with his wife, Her Honour Gwendolyn Point.

Over his term as the Queen’s representative in British Columbia, he’s accumulated “too much” mileage travelling to Chilliwack once or twice a month to visit family.

“It’s nice to go home,” he said. “Our grandchildren are there, all our kids are there.”

Once back, he hopes to resume his post as a provincial court judge – “Knock on wood,” he said, with another soft chuckle.

Among locals who got the chance to know him, Point has garnered a reputation for being warm, funny and downto-earth – and for being a great storyteller. He particularly had a knack for drawing in young people with tales from his own youth.

“Talking to kids is not easy,” he said at his office, before his departure ceremony Nov. 1 at the legislature. The best way to engage them is to talk about your own life and make sure you don’t come off as too important, he added.

“They ask all sorts of questions. They want to know if you sleep in a golden bed. It’s very funny.”

In particular, he inspired

took part in the inquest “to ensure that the issues were examined as thoroughly as possible.”

“While CSC has implemented significant changes to its operational procedures following the death of Mr. Phillips, CSC welcomes the recommendations the jury has offered,” she said.

But Parkes did not return a Progress call for a copy of the recommendations made in the internal investigation, and did not respond to the question of whether any disciplinary action was taken as a result of the CSC review.

aboriginal youth, as B.C.’s first aboriginal lieutenant governor.

“We get a lot of excitement when we get out to First Nations communities,” Point said. “I think it gives a lot of pride to the kids.”

The children also write him letters.

“His Honour personally responded to literally thousands of letters back of forth,” said Michael O’Connor, who got to know Point well as president of the Government House Foundation. “He takes the time to talk with everyone.”

The role took a bit of getting used to, however.

“I think it was unexpected when he was asked (to take the job) and he had to think about it. I think he was a bit apprehensive at first (but) I watched him become more relaxed in his role,” O’Connor said. “He is very engaging with people of all walks of life … and he makes everyone relax.”

Victoria MLA Carole James has attended many events with Point.

One of her favourite memories of him happened just a few months ago, during a ceremony dedicated to a new totem pole outside Government House.

“He saw that some of the little kids were having trouble seeing,” James said. “He said, ‘this event is about the future and supporting tradition, so I want to ask all the children to come on up to sit on the rocks …’ It was like watching the pied piper.”

When it came time to pull on the ropes to raise the totem pole, he invited the kids to join him in pulling.

“For me, that said it all,” James said. “He brought a human side to what can be seen as a reserved, formal position.”

VICTORIA – Wearing a kilt representing the clan of a Scottish ancestor, Lieutenant Governor Steven Point ended his five-year term Thursday with a unique ceremony at the B.C. legislature.

In the ornate rotunda now decorated by his hand-carved dugout canoe, B.C.’s first aboriginal Queen’s representative joined a choir and band to perform an original song he dedicated to the people of B.C. Premier Christy Clark presented Point and his wife Gwendolyn with gifts, and Point was visibly moved when presented with a hand-crafted guitar made in Kamloops. Clark praised the couple for their work during the past five years, including a partnership with Rotary Clubs on literacy in remote B.C. communities.

Clark recounted Point’s career, starting as a chief of his own First Nation, moved on to Grand Chief of the Sto:lo Tribal Council, earning two law degrees, becoming a provincial court judge, and serving as chief commissioner of the B.C. Treaty Commission before accepting Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s invitation to serve as Lieutenant Governor.

“He set out to be a role model for First Nations people, to inspire young people, and he has reached that goal,” Clark said.

Point praised Clark and said the country needs more women leaders, and also showed his penchant for humour.

“Well, it’s all over,” Point said. “I feel like Dorothy at the end of the Wizard of Oz. I’m going to go home now.”

Chilcotin rancher Judith Guichon wassworn in on Friday as B.C.’s 29th Lieutenant Governor.

CSC implemented ‘significant changes’

“

CSC from page 3 Parkes also did not elaborate on what “significant changes” have been made by the CSC. Gord Robertson, Pacific region president of the Union of Canadian Correctional Officers, was also unable to describe what those changes might be, but said “a more streamlined process” to assess inmates for double-bunking is in the works, but “not yet finalized.”

He said correctional officers don’t always have the complete history of transferred inmates, and may not have known the risk posed by McGray.

He said correctional officers often end up relying more on what other inmates tell them about a transferred prisoner, “which could be completely untrue.”

Phillips’ body was not discovered for some 12 hours

after he was killed, according to McGray’s story, but correctional officers are required to check inmates every half hour at night.

Robertson said Phillips was killed on one of the coldest nights in November, and covered with blankets “it’s difficult to tell if an inmate is breathing in the middle of the night.”

But he said correctional officers welcome “anything that will help us do our job, and make sure inmates are alive and well.”

“Ever ybody wants to improve this, and make it safer for inmates and staff,” he said.

News Regina man killed trying to outrun train Robert Jonathan Beaudry, a 25-year-old man from Regina, Saskatchewan, was identified by the BC Coroners Service Monday as the victim who was fatally struck by a train in Chilliwack Friday night.

“At about 11:30 p.m. on Nov. 2, Mr. Beaudry was traveling with friends in a taxi which had stopped

at a railway crossing at Young Road in Chilliwack to allow an oncoming, westbound CN train to pass,” Barb McClintock, at the Coroners Service, said in a statement.

“Mr. Beaudry exited the taxi and was struck by the train as he attempted to cross the railway on foot,” she said.

The Coroners Service contin-

ues to investigate the incident.

McClintock said Beaudry’s family has been notified, and on behalf of the family the Coroners Service is asking that the media to “respect their privacy at this difficult time.”

“The BC Coroners Service expresses its condolences to the family and friends of Mr. Beaudry,” she said.

FVRD voices ‘serious concerns’ over fly ash FVRD from Front July and August, the total cadmium in the fly ash during the same period is consistent with historic concentrations; • if additional testing shows the material at Cache Creek is not suitable for disposal, it will be relocated to a landfill that is permitted to receive it.

Richmond Mayor Malcolm Brodie, chair of Metro Vancouver’s Zero Waste Committee, said the memo “is what it is,” but he insisted the regional district is working “diligently” with the ministry to find out what happened and “we are dealing first and foremost with the problem and talking about it.”

“Metro Valley is every bit as concerned with air quality and pollution as anybody else,” he said.

“We are trying to get to the bottom of the situation and we will deal with it.”

But FVRD chair

Sharon Gaetz questioned the current testing protocols of the fly ash and “the trustworthiness of Metro Vancouver as a source of timely, reliable information related to test results and environmental impact” in light of the internal memo.

The FVRD is asking for formal “observer status” in the environment ministry’s investigation to “ensure that the FVRD is informed of the milestones and results of the review,” she said.

The FVRD raised the alarm about the elevated levels of cadmium found in the fly ash, which prompted Environment Minister Terry Lake to call for an investigation.

But Lake said in a news release that there is “nothing to indicate any risk whatsoever to human health or environmental safety.”

“This is a non-compliance issue, and ministry staff continue to work with Metro Vancouver to ensure all environmen-

tal standards are being met,” he said.

But Gaetz said the FVRD has “serious concerns” about the effect on workers handling the fly ash at both Burnaby and Cache Creek, as well as what may have come out of the stack in Burnaby and made its way to the Fraser Valley airshed.

“It is simply not good enough to investigate the non-compliance and testing irregularities,” she said. “We must have answers to the risks to human health and the environment.”

The FVRD is adamantly opposed to additional incineration facilities proposed by Metro Vancouver to deal with the waste it can’t recycle.

But Gaetz said scientists don’t agree on the environmental and health impacts of incineration and “the testing protocols are clearly unreliable and assurances from industry and Metro Vancouver are

essentially meaningless as this process continues to prove.”

“We will do whatever we can to get reliable information to the public,” she said.

According to an official at Wastech, which operates the landfill, the fly ash is collected in fabric bags that keep it from going up the incinerator stack as air pollution.

A process using phosphoric acid and water then chemically binds metals like cadmium to the ash so it’s unleachable and can’t later be washed by rain into the environment.

According to Metro, the total amount of cadmium in the fly ash hasn’t changed, so either the treatment process didn’t adequately bind the cadmium — making it more susceptible to leaching — or else faulty tests incorrectly showed high levels.

In 2006, Parliament unanimously passed the New Veterans Charter that changed the way injured soldiers are compensated. Instead of a lifetime pension, indexed to inflation, veterans injured after that year, or who had their injury diagnosed since then, would get a lump sump settlement.

Veterans Affairs champions the new system as “a more complete approach to helping our men and women injured in the line of duty,” offering them “real hope.”

But some injured veterans say otherwise.

They say Canadian soldiers injured in Afghanistan, and those suffering the lingering mental and emotional effects of their tour are getting substantially less support than they would have received with the former indexed pension. Many are having difficulty reintegrating into civilian life.

A study by Queen’s University last year concluded most disabled soldiers will receive only two-thirds the compensation under the New Veterans Charter than they would have received from the old Pension Act. Recently Canada’s Auditor-General criticized the Canadian Forces and Veterans Affairs for their shoddy treatment of injured veterans, saying the system to get them help is “complex, lengthy and challenging to navigate.”

Even in death, the indignities continue. A program that is supposed to contribute just over $3,600 to the funeral costs for destitute ex-soldiers has rejected more than two-thirds of funding requests since 2006. Even when approved, that money is still less than some social services departments will pay towards the burial of the homeless.

It’s one thing for Canada’s politicians to honour our veterans.

It’s another to treat them with honour. ~ Black Press

L OCALLY G LOBAL

War’s impact goes beyond human participants Earlier this year at the National Army Museum in London, U.K., a special exhibit War Horse: Fact & Fiction featured a curious box.

The walls on the inside of the box were mirrors, each one reflecting another. Placed inside the box were dozens of white, undefined cut-out horses. But as they reflected back and forth on the mirrors, the little cut-out horses multiplied into infinity.

The image, so simple, was a profound reminder that over eight million horses on all enemy sides died in the horrors of the First World War. This past Saturday, the Harper Government unveiled the Animals in War Dedication at Confederation Park in Ottawa.

The Dedication honours all the animals that ser ved alongside their human comrades in war. It couldn’t be more fitting or more appropriate.

Remember.

In 1917, a stray pit bull cross puppy wandered into the training grounds of the 102nd Infantry regiment where he was adopted by a private. Named Stubby, the little pit bull was smuggled to the front lines in Europe where he learned to warn troops in the trenches of imminent attacks.

He knew how to Margaret locate wounded soldiers and he EVANS managed to detain a German spy until reinforcements arrived.

In his 18 months of service, he earned the rank of Sergeant and became a war hero.

Remember.

GI Joe was an Army pigeon who received the People’s Dispensary for Sick Animals (PDSA) Dickin medal (war animals’ Victoria

Cross). In 20 minutes GI Joe made a 20-mile flight from the British 10th Army Headquarters to the front lines, carrying a message that arrived just in time to save the lives of 100 allied soldiers from being bombed by their own planes.

Remember.

Rob, a border collie with Special Air Services, was awarded the Dickin medal for his guarding and patrol duties in Italy, saving many of his human comrades from discovery. Rob made over 20 parachute descents.

Remember.

Simon the cat was awarded his medal for his devotion to duty aboard HMS Amethyst when it was shelled by Chinese Communist forces in 1949.

Despite his own injuries, he devoted his time to catching rats that threatened the crew’s shrinking rations.

European glow worms were

collected by the thousand and held in glass jars as soldiers huddled in the trenches. Their bioluminescence provided enough incandescent light for soldiers to read intelligence reports or battle maps.

During Canada’s war efforts, mules were used to carry supplies and artillery, horses hauled field guns and were used in battle, and dogs are still used as mine and IED detectors and in search and rescue missions.

Remember.

As Canadian John McCrae wrote the poem In Flanders Fields, he was deeply affected by the fighting and the terrible suffering. Distraught after the battle of Ypres, he would take long rides on his horse Bonfire with his faithful dog Bonneau by their side. When he died in January 1918 of pneumonia and meningitis, Bonfire led the funeral procession with McCrae’s

riding boots reversed in the stirrups. Bonneau walked as always alongside.

The National Army Museum’s War Horse exhibit, launched to coincide with the release of Steven Spielberg’s movie War Horse, honoured the dedication and sacrifice of all war horses. Canada’s Animals in War Dedication is a sobering reminder of the ultimate sacrifice countless millions of animals have made during the stark horrors of war.

Maybe that Dedication is our own mirror box for the millions of humans lost in conflict throughout time. Yet love endures in infinity for the fallen and for the countless animals that have followed us on the treacherous human journey, their hoof prints, their paw prints forever imprinted in the trenches of our soul.

Strahl urged to reconsider oil sands As my local representative in Ottawa, I am disappointed in your response to the peaceable demonstration held October 31 at your office facility on Vedder Road in Chilliwack B.C. (Note the Halloween theme, in keeping with the day’s festivities.)

Chilliwack is witnessing growing support for organized and critical evaluation of Tar Sands’ impact on our and others’ communities across B.C. - including: Kinder Morgan’s clandestine use of their existing pipeline for transport of Tar Sands oil, and plans to twin that pipeline and vastly increase transport of “dilbit” across B.C. lands; Enbridge’s proposed Northern Gateway pipeline which poses an even higher-volume risk level to that same pipeline issue; and vastly increased oil tanker traffic in our coastal waters, placing our communities and ecologies at great risk.

An email received today

from Chilliwack Mayor Sharon Gaetz confirmed City Hall’s inclusion in the areas of concern that particularly strike at the local level. Mayor Gaetz included reference to this webpage on the City website: http://chilliwack.com/main/ page.cfm?id=2140.

Anecdotal evidence of this support level in Chilliwack includes the hundreds of friendly waves, thumbs-up and honks from passing motorists during lunch-hour Oct.31 while we expressed our concerns outside your office. Yes, there were also one or two “birds” flipped at us as well – and we respect the right to hold and express all points of view (if not respecting the tactic used).

It is much more difficult for us to respect the viewpoint of our own Member of Parliament, not only declining the pre-event invitation to address the group but actually locking up the official MP office for Chilliwack

during that time. That was unacceptable, and I reproach you Mr. Strahl for that lack of accessibility and unwillingness to put your constituents ahead of Parliament Hill agenda.

Canadian citizens and B.C. residents that express concerns and oppose ill-considered and unchecked expansion of activities that pose risks such as Tar Sands oil are not “radicals” tr ying to “hijack” processes important to Canadians – as Natural Resources Minister Joe Oliver so inappropriately chose to state earlier this year. Here in B.C. polls indicate that residents who oppose pipeline and tanker traffic expansion are in the majority – and this includes many of your constituents Mr. Strahl. I urge you to reconsider your stance on this important issue, and to support the call for critical examination and due diligence in expansion proposals put forth by tar sands’ interests.

Canada Lands seeks input on development Jennifer Feinberg

Chilliwack is invited to have a hand in the design of a mixed development on a 50-acre

parcel of land near the Vedder River, east of Peach Road.

An open house is set for Wednesday, Nov. 7, to allow Canada Lands Company to collect

feedback from the public on their early design ideas.

They’re also seeking name suggestions for the new development.

One of their stellar successes in the community, Garrison Crossing, an awardwinning mixed development on the former Chilliwack militar y base, is virtually complete.

So the latest parcel in the southeast corner, bordered by Peach Road, the river, and Canada Education Park, and residences, is next up on the CLC drawing board.

It could become of the greenest developments in the city in terms of environmental sustainability, and that was part of the vision a decade ago. Now green construction is more mainstream, and

is often used as a selling point, especially as energy costs continue to rise.

Whereas with Garrison Crossing the proud military history was carefully commemorated and woven into the design, the name, layout, and theme of the new development have yet to be determined.

“We’re not presenting the plan as a fait accompli,” said Randy Fasan, urban design and planning director for CLC. There will be a range of residential forms from multi-family housing, to single homes, as well as town homes, and apartments. But the boundaries can change.

“It’s going to be a mix and it will vary depending on what we hear from folks at the open house.

Typical wait times for those requiring cataract surgery are less than two months at Chilliwack General Hospital.

Peach from page 8 “We’re at the cartoon stage in a sense. We can turn it into whatever we collectively would like to see.”

In fact if residents show up in a tizzy about something, those concerns will likely be addressed at another open house event.

Canada Lands is not alone in its commitment to seeking public input, Fasan added.

“There are a number of developers across North American who do this. We’re humble enough to say we just can’t dream it up all on our own.

“It’s the citizens of Chilliwack who know where and what they want to live in.”

Witnesses sought in assault Chilliwack RCMP are looking for witnesses to a “serious assault” that took place in downtown Chilliwack just after midnight Friday.

Police said the 18-year-old victim was in the Nowell Street area at about 1 a.m. when a “brief scuffle” took place with the suspect.

“This is a very serious assault and we are looking for any witnesses who may have been in the downtown area during this time,” RCMP Const.

Tracy Wolbeck said.

The victim was in hospital in stable condition on Friday.

Anyone with information about this incident is asked to call the Chilliwack RCMP at 604-792-4611 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS.

About 23 per cent of B.C. teens have been victims of cyber-bullying, according to a new survey of parents.

The online poll of 504 B.C. adults by West-6S Marketing found widespread concern about cyber-bullying, with 89 per cent very or somewhat concerned.

Eight per cent of adults surveyed also said they’ve been cyberbullied and that rose to 12 per cent among heavy users of Facebook or Twitter.

More mainstream use of social media means cyber-bullying is becoming more widespread and not just limited to online chat rooms, according to 6S Marketing president Chris Breikss.

“Considering the speed of social media and its availability – through smart phones, tablets – harassment has become inescapable,” he said. ~ Black Press

Adopt-A-Family provides Christmas for families For more than 20 years, the program has helped spread a little Christmas joy Jenna Hauck The Progress

Christmas is about families and giving; it’s about caring and thinking of others.

This year the Chilliwack Salvation Army is asking the community to do just that and sponsor a family as part of its Adopt-AFamily program.

“Adopt-A-Family is a program that allows individuals or companies in Chilliwack to sponsor a needy family,” says Tina Ortutay, program coordinator. “They provide food and gifts, plus a $25 turkey voucher. They provide Christmas for that family.”

People and companies can sponsor families of different sizes and/or multiple families. A family with one child costs approximately $160 to sponsor, families with two children are $200, three are $245, and four or more are $285 and up.

The Salvation Army will provide sponsors with a family profile, kids’ ages, gift suggestions, and a list of food items. The sponsors are then responsible for purchasing the food and gifts, making a $25 donation for the turkey voucher, and bringing the items to the Salvation Army Church on Dec. 17, 18 or 19.

Anyone who wants to sponsor a family is welcome to do so. No one will be turned away.

The program has been in Chilliwack for more than 20 years and each year hundreds of families are sponsored. Last year it was a total of 238 families, and this year they are hoping to help out 250 families. The majority of the sponsors are corporate, but at least one third are individuals or families.

Every year the local Salvation

Tina Ortutay, coordinator for the Salvation Army’s Adopt-A-Family program, is encouraging people and businesses to take part in the program and help out needy families by buying gifts and food this Christmas season. JENNA HAUCK/ PROGRESS

Army gives out 1,700 Christmas food hampers containing everything needed for a holiday dinner.

“If the Christmas hamper program wasn’t supported by community, it would cost us up to $70,000,” says Ian Pratt, community ministries coordinator for Chilliwack Salvation Army.

“The Adopt-A-Family program helps the Salvation Army out because it helps to remove some of the financial burden of the 1,700 hampers,” says Ortutay.

All of the families who apply, and qualify, for a Christmas hamper then go through a filter-

ing process for Adopt-A-Family.

The Sally Ann figures out which families have not been previously sponsored and will match as many needy families with sponsors as best they can.

Anyone applying for a Christmas hamper (individuals and families) must fill out an application form at Christmas Central, located at 45892 Wellington Ave. (entrance is through the back door, off the courthouse parking lot). The application process begins Tuesday, Nov. 13 and ends Friday, Dec. 7. Hours are Monday to Saturdays from 10 a.m.

to 3 p.m. (closed noon to 1 p.m.).

Applicants must provide proof of income, proof of residence in Chilliwack, picture ID for applicant, and Care Cards for every member of their household.

Shortly after the Dec. 7 application deadline, sponsors are given the necessary info on the family they have been matched with.

“We try to get as much info as possible from the applicant,” says Ortutay.

The more info they have — such as how many kids are in the family, what the ages of the kids are, what they like, and what their

favourite colours are — the easier it is for the sponsors to shop for gifts geared towards that family.

Some of the people working at the Salvation Army take part in Adopt-A-Family themselves, and since they know some of the clients firsthand, both the sponsors and the applicants remain anonymous.

“The people who receive the hampers deserve their privacy, as do the sponsors,” says Ortutay.

“Putting anonymity on both sides brings out the true meaning of Christmas.”

‘I want someone to have Christmas,’ says sponsor Christmas from page 13 One sponsor and her husband have been taking part in Adopt-A-

Family for more than 10 years. For them, it’s their way of providing Christmas to another family now that their

children have left the house.

“Working here (at the Salvation Army), you see people who really need

stuff. I don’t buy for my kids anymore because they’re grown up, but I’m still a mom and Christmas is big for us.

I want someone to have Christmas,” says the anonymous sponsor.

Not everyone can afford to adopt a fam-

ily, but people can help in other ways such as donating money and food for the hundreds of Christmas hampers.

Sit back, relax and care for your community.

If people would like to participate in the AdoptA-Family program, but cannot afford to adopt a family, there’s another option — the Top-Up program.

“We always need the top-ups, like gift cards, toys, and extra food,” says Pratt.

These items are added to the Adopt-A-Family hampers in case a sponsor forgets an item or is short on gifts or food.

And although it’s a lot of work — for more than two months the Salvation Army is focussed almost entirely on Christmas — Ortutay says it’s worth it.

“All the work leading up to it, when the families start coming in weeping and thanking us, makes everything worth while,” she says.

Those interested in sponsoring a family can call the Salvation Army Care and Share Centre at 604-792-0001 and get an application form faxed to them. A downloadable version of the form is also available at www.salvationarmychilliwack.ca. photo@theprogress.com twitter.com/PhotoJennalism

Two more Chilliwack men have been charged for taking part in a brutal home invasion in east Chilliwack last April.

And Chilliwack RCMP investigators believe there may be more involved in the April 16 incident in which one occupant of the home was sent to hospital.

Police said details of the case cannot be released because of a court-ordered publication ban.

Newly-charged are Marc Cadieux, 41, and Steve Tkachuk, 44, both from Chilliwack. They are charged with break and enter with the intent to commit an indictable offense, robbery, assault causing bodily harm and disguising their faces with the intent to commit an offence.

Both men remain in custody, and have separate court dates this week, Cadieux on Nov. 5 and Tkachuk on Nov. 6 Charged earlier, David Ganaway 29, also from Chilliwack, returns to court Nov. 20 to fix a date for trial.

“The persistent efforts of the Chilliwack RCMP Serious Crime Unit have resulted in charges against the three men,” RCMP Const. Tracy Wolbeck said in a news release.

She said investigators believe there were other people involved in this crime, and are continuing to investigate “until all possible leads have been explored and exhausted.”

Anyone with information about the incident is asked to call the Chilliwack RCMP at 604-792-4611 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS.

NYDA REALTY #1 - 7300 Vedder Rd.

Many Realtors receive listings from individuals who originally thought they had sold their home themselves.

Sellers who try to sell their own home learn the hard way that it is not easy, and keeping it sold and getting to the closing table is even more difficult. There are many pitfalls involved in selling your own home.

First, face-to-face negotiations are difficult, even when the buyer really wants the house. Then there is the paperwork.

For sale by owner contracts rarely cover all of the legal requirements regarding disclosure laws, creating loopholes which could allow a buyer with cold feet to back out at the last minute. When you have finally come to an agreement, how can you be sure that your buyers will find competent professionals to handle their loan and complete the closing?

What if structural problems are discovered or property boundary problems are revealed?

It takes a lot more than a “For Sale” sign in the front yard and advertising to get a listing sold. When Realtors sell a house, sometimes they have to “sell” it again and again before the contract is actually signed by the buyers and sellers.

Many things have to occur before the closing. The house must be “sold” to the buyers’ relatives, the home inspector, the appraiser, and other experts. The buyers must secure a mortgage. Sometime during the process, the buyers may

go through a serious case of “buyers’ remorse” and consider backing out of the transaction. Since the transaction could potentially fall through at any step in the process, you will find the services of a professional Realtor invaluable. They continue to present the house in the best light possible and use professional skills to solve any problems that may arise.

No matter what phase the market is in, it is always important to price your home competitively. The first step is to call a Realtor and ask for a market analysis. Your Realtor will look at recent sales of comparable homes in your area and give you information about other properties that are currently on the market. By comparing the size, location and condition of your home with the competition, your Realtor will help you determine what to ask for your home. The price is based on market conditions, comparable sales, and years of experience in the marketplace. Even in an active market, an inflated price may frighten prospective buyers away. A house that is overpriced can take additional weeks, probably months, to sell, and the final sale price may even be lower than if the sellers had started out more realistically.

Many changes can occur in a real estate transaction between the initial meeting of the minds and the completion of the sale. This is where having a real estate professional to handle the sale makes a big difference.

Chilliwack is not my hometown, but it feels like it is. I was born in Tisdale, Saskatchewan and spent most of my growing up on a dairy farm. After graduation I moved to Calgary for 15 years, then my husband was transferred to the coast and we made our home in Surrey.

I moved out here as a single mom with my three kids almost 12 years ago. We loved Chilliwack immediately and my family has had a very happy life here.

So I feel like I’m well qualified to work with new people coming to the area, as well as those who have been here forever, because I believe in this city. I think I’ve found a little piece of paradise and the wisest people know this to be true. Give me a call anytime for your complimentary market evaluation or if you know someone moving to town, pass along my name, because Chilliwack is my hometown now.

“(The Premier) has to come to the Queen because it’s the Queen’s money.”

Prorogation is a good example of that power. Two weeks ago, Ontario Lt.-Gov. David Onley faced criticism for agreeing to prorogue parliament at the request of outgoing Premier Dalton McGuinty.

Point wouldn’t comment on Onley’s decision, but said, “If the lieutenant governor has to make a tough decision, he doesn’t have anybody to talk to – not even the Queen.” He called it a heavy responsibility.

“When you step into these shoes, the buck stops here.”

You can’t comment on education,” he said. “The programs that you can be involved in have to be outside the political arena, so I decided to do literacy, which is a pretty neutral kind of thing.”

While Point has not been free to speak his mind on political issues he has held political power.

It’s a role Canadians don’t understand well, said Point.

On top of attending ceremonies and hosting dignitaries, the lieutenant governor holds real power, he said.

“Most people are unaware that the government cannot introduce its own money bills,” he said.

GOV from page 3

Point also accomplished many good deeds for the province during his appointment.

Chief among them is his literacy program.

“That’s worked out to be a great thing,” Point said. The program started by bringing books out to communities, but as more partners came on board, it expanded to bring whole libraries to towns with no road access.

Settling on literacy was a bit of a process of elimination for Point.

As the Queen’s representative, “you can’t comment on poverty.

Grizzlies end season with win

The GW Graham junior varsity football squad held up their end of the bargain last Wednesday, edging the visiting Pitt Meadows Marauders 14-12 to keep their playoff hopes alive.

But they needed help, and a game going on at the exact same time sealed their fate. The Mission Roadrunners throttled the Samuel Robertson Titans 42-0 to leave both Mission and GWG with 4-2 records.

The Roadrunners got the playoff nod through the head-tohead tiebreaker, with Mission beating GWG 24-0 in week one of the AA season.

A disappointing end to an otherwise successful first season for Laurie Smith and his Grizzlies.

GWG ran off four straight wins to end the season, giving them plenty to build on for 2013.

The Pitt Meadows win was far from an artistic triumph, but it highlighted the team’s ability to gut things out in crunch time.

The Grizzlies looked set for an easy day when they scored on their very first offensive possession.

Starting from their own seven yard line, the GWG offence marched the ball into Marauder territor y and capped the drive with a Terrell Sparvier to Jordan Breuker touchdown toss.

Making his first start at quarterback, Sparvier rolled left and found Breuker uncovered down the left sideline.

The convert failed, but GWG had a 6-0 lead.

The Grizzlies got their second major late in the second quarter on another nice offensive drive.

Sparvier chewed up the biggest chuck of yardage on a spectacu-

lar run.

The diminutive pivot scrambled right and found several Marauders waiting.

Escaping their grasp, Sparvier reversed field and found space down the left side, gaining 23 yards before they finally brought him down.

Running back Tristan Davis got the touchdown on a welldesigned draw play, rumbling 21 yards up the gut to put GWG up 12-0.

Breuker added the convert and the Grizzlies led 14-0 at the half.

A dif ferent Marauder team came to play in the second half, and they made life very difficult for the home side.

Pitt Meadows shut down the GWG offence and the Marauder offence started moving the ball.

Late in the third quarter, Pitt Meadows quar terback Jake Schuster led his team on an 81 yard scoring drive.

The drive ended with bowling ball running back Dalton

Hebblethwaite pounding in from six yards out.

Same story on the next Marauder drive.

Starting at their own 40, Pitt Meadows moved the ball into the shadow of the GWG goal-posts.

On second and goal from the six, Hebblethwaite was hit at the line but would not go down. He kept his legs churning until he was in the endzone.

The Marauders went for the two point convert and the tie, but failed, leaving the score at 14-12.

With time running out, Pitt Meadows made one final charge.

From their own 29 yard line, the Maurauders drove downfield, twice converting on fourh down.

From the 18 yard line, Schuster dropped back to pass and found Diego Pineda in his face.

The paniced pivot tossed the ball blindly, and Ryan Trottier came down with the interception.

Game over.

Season over.

The University of the Fraser Valley Cascades women’s basketball team defeated the Mount Royal University Cougars, 79-49, sweeping the two-game weekend series, in Calgary, Alberta.

The Cascades,

ranked number three in the CIS top ten poll, start the season 2-0 and will host the University of the Victoria Vikes, on Friday, in their home opener.

UFV downed the Cougars 71-49 Friday night and continued to dominate in the rematch. The Cascades led by six after one quarter and used stingy defence to hold MRU to 25 first half points.

UFV continued the clampdown in the third quarter, holding the Royals to just eight points.

The Cascade offence was efficient, shooting 50 per cent from the floor.

“I liked our balance, tonight, and particularly in the third quarter when we did a good job of sharing the ball and finding the open man,” said UFV head coach Al Tuchscherer. “When we play that way, we are difficult to stop.”

Chilliwack’s Sarah Wierks led the Cascades with a game high 13 points and nine rebounds.

Cour tney Bar tel (Chilliwack), Kayli

Sartori (Chilliwack) and Aieisha Luyken (Mission) all had 12 points as UFV spread the scoring out.

Nicole Wierks (Chilliwack) led all Cascades with 10 total rebounds, and UFV outrebounded MRU 48 to 31.

“Mount Royal is tough and athletic and they are going to be a tough team to play against in the near future,” said Tuchscherer.

UFV is in its seventh season as a member of Canada West and the CIS.

family. In 1957 Mom began working for the McKinnon family on the Standard Dairy Farm, and in 1960 she earned her Dairy Short Course, and Pasteurizer Operator ticket.

Mom worked in the dairy processing milk until the High Arrow Dam and the planned flooding of the Columbia Valley forced a switch. Standard Dairy then began carrying Dairyland milk products, and the operation moved to Nichol Road two years later. Mom delivered milk to commercial businesses for a handful of years and will be remembered as the woman who zipped around town in her yellow milk truck and Dairyland uniform. McGregor’s Motor Inn was the recipient of Mom’s hard work and dedication for a number of years. Whether she was the Dining Room Hostess, serving drinks in the lounge, or booking rooms at the hotel front desk, Mom ran a tight ship and put up with no Tom-foolery!

In the early 70’s Mom switched careers again and went to work for Jake-Jay Holdings(Jim, Jack, and Bill McKinnon) as the Office Administration person. Mom worked there for close to twenty years before retiring in the early 90’s. In 1983 Mom was awarded the Employee of the Year Award.

Retirement brought gardening, travel, family visits, and a time in Mom’s life when

she was able to relax and have fun. She golfed, bowled, crossstitched, knit, and maintained a beautiful yard and gardens.

And told stories. If there was anything you wanted to know about the town or its people, you could just ask Mom. After Jimmy’s death in 2005 Mom turned her work skills and energy to the Hospital Auxiliary Thrift Store; it was truly a God-send.

A Celebration of Mom’s life took place at the Revelstoke Seniors’ Centre on Saturday, November 3, 2012.

We would like to thank Diane and Gary Wiege for their tremendous friendship and support to Mom, especially in this past year. Thank you also to ‘all the women and men at the Thrift Store’ where Mom spent so many hours; she shared many tales of the ‘store’ and of you with us. A heart-felt thanks to Dr. Sara Brown for her compassion and attentiveness to our Mom as she navigated this last part of her life. Your care will always be remembered. Thanks as well for all the kindness and support from the medical staff here in Revelstoke and elsewhere.

A fund has been established to install a memorial bench, to be placed overlooking the Pioneer McKinnon Farm. To make a donation, please send to Revelstoke City Hall, in memory of Joan Adair.
