Weekend fire damages Fairfield home A Chilliwack family of five is without a home following a fire that broke out Sunday afternoon on Fairfield Island. The two adults and three children were not home at the time. Firefighters say the fire started just after 1p.m. in the two-storey home, located in the 10200 block of Kent Road. Firefighters entered the home, which was showing smoke when they arrived, to find the majority of the fire in the basement with fire extending up the walls into the attic. Firefighters managed to confine and extinguish the fire. There was extensive fire damage to the basement with smoke and water damage to the remainder of the house. There were no firefighter injuries. Emergency Social Services (ESS) responded to the scene and provided accommodation for the family. Cause of the fire is still under investigation but is considered accidental. A passer by had called 9-1-1 after seeing smoke coming out of the roof of the home. Wider sidewalks and outdoor seating could be in store for Mill Street in downtown Chilliwack.

Planning for an upgrade to Mill Street in downtown Chilliwack is well underway. It could become a one-way street by early 2014. The idea for an upgrade first emerged in 2007 during the early stages of the downtown planning process. It featured a more verdant vision of Mill Street with wider sidewalks and outdoor patios, as well as street trees.

But the design meant sacrificing the parking on one side of the street, which was seen as a red flag and of big concern to local merchants. Council approved a plan Tuesday to consult with affected business operators and owners over the details of option C, which offered the most onstreet parking spaces of the five options presented. “What we hope to do is develop a consultation package with facts and figures to help businesses understand what

is being proposed,” said Rod Sanderson, city manager of Transportation and Drainage. Option C features a switch from two-way traffic to oneway traffic going north, and it was chosen by a majority of the stakeholders who attended a meeting to consider the options. A few businesses did not select option C, including one that proposed an entirely new option. “Much of the impact will be one of perception,” said the city staffer, since one-way streets are both “effective and efficient.” They just take some getting used to, he added.

Local merchants and property owners also had input to offer on the construction timing, asking city officials to complete the upgrade during the January- March work window. “This period was selected to minimize business loss,” according to the staff report, “(and) stakeholders were advised and understood that this period comes with reduced construction efficiencies due to weather.” The costs of surfacing and underground work, at an estimated $510,000 are contained in the budget. jfeinberg@theprogress.com Twitter.com/chwkjourno

Newly minted MLAs ready to get down to business Alina Konevski The Progress

MLA-elect for Chilliwack, John Martin, has had just under two weeks to ponder his new role. While the longtime UFV criminologist waits for absentee ballots to be counted, he took a seat with The Progress to discuss Chilliwack’s future when it comes to healthcare, education, and the environment. The edited interview is below. vvv

As one of his last acts in office, former MLA for Chilliwack, John Les, confirmed that UFV will receive $1 million for a new agricultural research centre. What other funding can we expect for UFV, especially for research? There was a recognition that despite Chilliwack and the Fraser Valley being the agricultural breadbasket in the province, the educational component at the post-secondary level was somewhat lacking. And it’s not just here. In Western Canada, we really don’t have a world class, agricultural, post-secondary centre. Ontario has three alone. This is where it’s going to happen. Out in the Canada Education Park, that plan for the Agricultural School of Excellence, is world class. Nobody has a closer and longer connection to UFV than myself. There’s no institution that’s nearer and dearer to me than the University of the Fraser Valley, and I’ll always be an advocate and a champion for it. How will you ensure that Chilliwack’s healthcare services continue to expand in line with our growing population? The challenge is pretty straightforward. Our population is growing, and it’s growing older. And the pres-

sure on health services has been increasing with those changes in demographics. Obviously that’s something that requires an expansion of services. Funding has to be looked at...Healthcare spending makes up the lion’s share of the budget, and healthcare spending will continue to grow. My job as an MLA is to ensure that Chilliwack gets its fair share of that allocated budget. How do we overcome these funding challenges in healthcare?” We overcome it with the plan that Christy Clark got this government reelected on, and that is to grow the economy. There’s a number of ways to do that, but one in particular is to take advantage of the vast natural resources at our disposal. And in a safe and environmental manner, to be able to take advantage of the economic opportunities of our natural resources. If we don’t do those things, we’ll have trouble funding healthcare, education, frontline social services, infrastructure, and everything else. While growing the economy, how do we ensure our environment is protected? You follow the five-point plan that the premier laid out. For instance, with refineries or pipelines, we have to go

through the rigorous environmental assessment. In the case of an accident, we have to have world class responses for both land and marine. Nobody wants to rape the land. We all live here, we all have family, we’re all considerate of the next generation. That’s not a partisan issue. Does that five-point plan include royalties for B.C. In the instance where B.C. is simply being used as a thoroughfare, where an Alberta product is travelling across, because we would subsume the bulk of the environmental risk, obviously that has to be taken into account. That’s insurance...If B.C. is going to take its share — or its share and then some — of the risk, then it has to be in our interest. What changes in Chilliwack can people expect from you? I don’t really want to change a lot, because I am very happy — as obviously the voters in Chilliwack are very happy — with the representation they got from John Les and Barry Penner. I want to continue steering that course. I’m thrilled to be the MLA-elect. It’s an enormous responsibility, and I’m just thrilled until a couple more weeks go by, and it’s all official, and we can get down to work. v

Alina Konevski The Progress

Less than two weeks since the election, and MLA-elect for Chilliwack-Hope Laurie Throness is already fielding requests for support from the community. The former Chief of Staff for Chuck Strahl will officially take the reins after all the ballots are counted, sometime in June. “Ever ything is brand new, we’re all feeling our way in this,” said Throness. The Progress sat down with Throness to find out what Chilliwack can expect under his leadership. Here is the edited interview. vvv

The lack of mass public transit connecting Chilliwack to other municipalities has long been a challenge. What will you do about this?” It’s a developing situation, because public transit is a function of population, and so even in Vancouver, where they have a population of over three million people and they give about $232 million rides per year, they struggle with funding their system. There are all sorts of problems with that. We can’t expect that this will be an easy situation...As the population in the Valley grows, I think we can expect

more public transit. Why aren’t we taking better advantage of available provincial transit funding? I’m not sure. And that’s one of the things I want to investigate. The Chilliwack school district’s $56 million capital plan was recently put on ‘high priority’ by the Ministry of Education, but no funding has been committed. How will you push for continued funding to the district? Chilliwack has been extremely well-served by the Ministry in the past. And you look at Rosedale Traditional school, you look at UFV campus, you look at upgrades to schools here, you look at the new senior high school. I think we can trust that the Ministry will continue to serve as well, as it has in the past. We have a great history here, and we hope to continue that. The Chilliwack hospital is one of the most congested in the province, according to B.C. emergency doctors. Fraser Health can be inaccessible for residents, and many will visit local MLAs for support. What’s your plan for improving healthcare in Chilliwack? The plan for healthcare is to continue prioritizing it on a provincial basis. Locally, we’ve just added a

new emergency unit that is second to none in the province...Perhaps any congestion in the emergency ward is a reflection of the very fine service that we offer. With respect to the Fraser Health Authority, I think it could use some work on its communications and as MLA, I would want to transmit that message, which I think was pretty clearly given in the last couple of months on the chlorination issue. And what about getting a dialysis unit for Chilliwack? A year ago, I said that I would ask the Minister of Health for some kind of assessment of the needs in the area. We recognize that there can’t be a dialysis clinic in every town of B.C., but I promise that I would go to the Minister of Health and ask for a reassessment. I will do that. What we want to do is to compare the services that are provided to other population bases, and to make sure that we are treated on an equal footing. When residents come to your office with a problem, what can they expect from you? They’re going to be greeted with a service-oriented office, and an office that is eager to help with their problems, and to negotiate their way through the provincial public service. Already I’m being asked to help on a number of different issues. So I’ve already begun the job. I’m a hard worker, I’m ser vice-oriented...I’m a problem solver, and I intend to apply those skills and that energy to the people of Chilliwack-Hope.

Dix staying on as B.C. NDP leader

Tom Fletcher Black Press

Adrian Dix is staying on as B.C. NDP leader while the party reviews its performance in the May 14 election and prepares for four more years in opposition. Dix didn’t specify a time frame for the election post-mortem, but said he will work to prepare the NDP opposition to hold the government to its election commitments. “I assure you this review will spare nothing and no one, least of all me,” Dix told a news conference in Vancouver Wednesday. “It must address the strategy and tactics we employed in the elec-

SINCE 1973

tion, and it must examine the fundamental question of who we are as a party and our relationship with the people of B.C.” Dix took responsibility for mishandling a campaign that began with the NDP expecting a strong majority government after four years of turmoil in B.C. Liberal ranks over the harmonized sales tax and other issues. He singled out as a significant error his surprise mid-campaign decision to turn against the proposal to expand the Trans-Mountain oil pipeline that runs from northern Alberta to Burnaby and Washington state. Dix expressed no regret for avoiding negative advertising, although he

STOREWIDE CLEARANCE ON NOW!

was targeted by a long string of ads questioning his personal integrity and competence. He stood by his choice as an attempt to engage more voters, but the campaign didn’t deliver a significant increase in the 51 per cent participation rate of the 2009 vote. “I don’t believe last week’s results are the end of positive politics in B.C.,” Dix said. “The answer to the Liberals’ populist, right-wing playbook is not to simply adopt it.” Instead of pushing Premier Christy Clark out of the job, the NDP ended up down three seats to 33 and the B.C. Liberals increased their majority to 50 seats.

NDP leader Adrian Dix says he will prepare to face the B.C. Liberal government when the legislature reopens later this year. Black Press files

During Chilliwack Middle School’s history, students have sung in glee club, have become cadets to support the war effort, and have enjoyed a gradual slackening of the dress code. Cars went up in price from their $650 tag in 1920, an acre of land by the school grounds is no longer $125, and the school’s name changed at least thrice. CMS opened in 1913. To celebrate its one hundred year anniversary, the school invites residents to trek through the ages Tuesday night in a carefully staged open house. With research help from the Chilliwack Museum and Archives, the school has also printed a full-colour, fifty-page commemorative booklet tracking the school and its students through the decades, in an effort to help modern students place themselves on the continuum of time. “I wanted to engage the students in the past using their historical imagination so that they would connect, and it would have relevance with them,” said teacher Janet Crawford. “I want them to connect their identity, who they are now, with the Chilliwack of the Bonanza era, from about the 1910 to

1914 in particular.” Crawford focused her research on the pre-1950 era, primarily using The Progress newspaper articles, but also old photographs and report cards. She found that school life was profoundly different back then. Agriculture had a powerful role, and Grade 10 students would take as many as 10 ag courses. The extra-curricular potato club had students discussing how to best grow spuds. Nearly ever ybody had a garden, either on school grounds or at private homes, and students grew all kinds of hearty vegetables, raised dairy cows and sows, and even youngsters had flower gardens. In one ancient photo, an endless row of tractors lines Wellington Avenue. Chilliwack’s roots are in a strong sense

of community. When an item was lost or found, it would be returned to the post office or the Royal Bank. The newspaper ran stories on whose flowers came in first, or where the school principal was spending the weekend. “And it wasn’t seen as nosy. It was seen as pride in the community, and attachment. And everybody knew everybody’s business, not for the nosy factor, but for the building of a nation,” said Crawford. During the war years, life was much tougher. Even CMS yearbooks were bare bones, as the school’s primary effort was to raise money for the Allies. Cadets became mandatory in 1941-42, and all students learned drills and morse code.

News Chilliwack middle hosts open house Tuesday CMS from page 4 records manage at the Chilliwack Museum and Archives, found several CMS alumni who went on to do great things. Dorothy Kostrzewa was the first Chinese-Canadian woman elected to political office. Sharon Gaetz is the current city mayor. Homer Thompson was a world-renowned archeologist. And the architect of CMS, Thomas Hooper, is a great-great-great-great uncle of two current students. “I wanted to generate conversation

in families. We’re hoping to make intergenerational connections, because then you better understand your identity,” said Crawford. On the eve of May 28, CMS will open its doors to guide visitors through the school’s history. All 100 yearbooks will be on display in one room. Another classroom will feature vintage team sport sweaters and cheerleading uniforms. Yet other rooms will demonstrate the most modern side of CMS’s history, its new educational technology, such as touchscreen Smart Boards, and the robotics program.

Finally, Chilliwack resident Hennie Drenton-Regoczi will perform snippets of her one-woman play, “Droning of Bombers,” about how she and her family sheltered people escaping the Second World War near the German border. The play ran last year at the UFV Theatre department. The festivities at CMS are freely open to the public, from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Tuesday night. Copies of the commemorative booklet will be on sale for a discounted $10. akonevski@theprogress.com twitter.com/alinakonevski

Pointsof View

Thursday, May 23, 2013 The Chilliwack Progress

The Chilliwack Progress is published by Black Press Group Ltd., every Tuesday and Thursday at 45860 Spadina Ave., Chilliwack. The Progress is a member of the Canadian Circulation’s Audit Board, Canadian Community Newspaper Association, British Columbia and Yukon Community Newspaper Association and B.C. Press Council.

Killing EFI shows lack of vision The decision by the Chilliwack School Board to reject early French immersion is short-sighted and fails to meet the growing educational needs and expectations of the community. In a split decision last week, the board cited increased costs as the reason behind its denial of the program. With one trustee on medical leave and another choosing not to vote, a recommendation to implement the program by 2014 fell to a 3-2 vote. Parents were right to be disappointed. They have worked for more than two years to demonstrate the need and rally support for the program. Indeed, the school district’s own survey, done by an outside consultant, indicated 82 per cent parental support for early French immersion. Chilliwack already offers late French immersion, which starts at Grade 6. However, there is strong evidence that earlier introduction gives students better abilities as they move forward. And it’s not just their language skills that are improved. “Study after study has shown the cognitive benefits of leaning an additional language,” said Glyn Lewis executive director with Canadian Parents for French BC & Yukon.

The Chilliwack

Progress

R AESIDE

Lewis was commenting on the need for more funding to help school districts like Chilliwack introduce early French immersion. For too many school districts, he says, those start up costs are a deterrent. Money was an obvious factor in Chilliwack’s decision. Trustees were told it would cost the district an additional $1 million a year to offer French immersion. There was concern that the district, which already faces a $200,000 deficit this year, would have to cut other programs to make it work. But money should not be the sole factor shaping educational priorities in Chilliwack. It is important. But that bottomline thinking too often jeopardizes programs that help us produce wellrounded and accomplished graduates. Rather than an additional cost, early French immersion should be seen as an investment in local educational programing that will attract and retain students. Instead of telling parents why it can’t be done, the board should be asking how the district can add an important program of choice that will meet the diverse needs of a growing and progressive community. But that would take vision. Greg Knill, Chilliwack Progress

Polarized politics a costly system in B.C.

VICTORIA – One benefit of the surprising fourth term for the B.C. Liberal Party is that the provincial government won’t be subjected to another big, expensive ideological remake. Taxpayers are spared a bill of millions in severance pay for deputy ministers and other senior staff who would be purged in large numbers in the left-right lurch that has defined B.C. politics for a generation. BC Ferries will continue as an arms-length operation, with ferry commissioner Gord Macatee in charge of service levels as well as fare caps. The service rationalization that the government set out in the past year will continue. The NDP platform vowed to “position BC Ferries as an integral part of B.C.’s transportation infrastructure.” Freely translated, that means “suck BC Ferries back into government,” as one of their stri-

dent supporters likes to say. That would conceal the growth of the subsidy and facilitate the kind of political and union interference that resulted in the current structure. There will be no $10 million rehash of the BC Rail sale and subsequent seven-year trial, to enrich elite lawyers Tom once again. The NDP promFLETCHER ised an inquiry for strictly political reasons, to drag their opponents through the scandal one more time. It was not a prelude to “nationalizing” the province’s train service, dream scenarios of the NDP provincial council notwithstanding. Costly legal confrontations over development projects have

been avoided. The Jumbo Glacier Resort proponents finally won a 20-year fight for permits, and the NDP promised to take them away. A larger ideological battle over private power contracts has also been avoided. The B.C. Liberals have been caught by a sudden shift in power markets caused by cheap, abundant natural gas, but the billions in commitments to independent power producers isn’t the fiasco that critics have described. If all those privately developed run-of-river hydro projects were owned and operated by BC Hydro, the Crown corporation would have to staff them and maintain them all for the next 40 years. There are differing views about the future demand for electricity in B.C., but it can only rise with industry and population growth. A decade of federal and provincial work to end duplication of environmental assessment won’t

be undone. NDP leader Adrian Dix’s promise for “made in B.C.” reviews was a strategy to choke resource projects to death under endless procedure, which may yet be the fate the Jumbo resort. We will have a Seniors’ Advocate office, but it won’t be staffed up to duplicate the Ombudsperson’s role of taking complaints. That’s good, since the Ombudsperson has become ineffective, labouring for years over a massive seniors’ report with so many recommendations it sank like a stone. We have 85 seniors’ advocates now. They’re called MLAs, and they definitely take complaints. They have staffed offices in their home communities and in Victoria. When they’re not doing political work that everyone denies is going on in constituency offices, those office staffers try to help people through the labyrinth of seniors’

at-home and institutional care. A new seniors’ advocate can offer advice at the management level to help the health care system evolve, but only elected politicians are positioned to tell individuals they can’t have what they are demanding. The government should be adding more direct services, not more bureaucrats. There will be many arguments about the failure of the NDP to win against an unpopular B.C. Liberal government that is still weighed down by the harmonized sales tax and other heavy baggage. This election could be the beginning of the end for the old left-right model for B.C. politics.

Chlorination better than alternative Re: Chlorination I see from the continuing agitation that the City of Chilliwack is still not appreciative of the water chlorination programme. Twenty years ago my fiveyear-old grandson contracted an e.coli infection and developed haemolytic uraemic syndrome (commonly known as “hamburger disease”). He was airlifted to the Children’s Hospital in Vancouver where my daughter

was told they didn’t expect him to live through the night. After weeks of daily kidney dialysis and blood transfusions he eventually recovered, but was followed by the doctors for years to ensure he had no permanent kidney damage. He was one of the lucky ones. The water is Chilliwack has been chlorinated to prevent this happening to your child but are the citizens of Chilliwack appre-

ciative of the work of our public health authorities? I have seen so much antichlorination propaganda that I feel it is time that you should stop the grumbling and be grateful to modern science and our health authorities who work to protect our lives and those of our children.

Take time to celebrate your kids and concerts, ect., why is it that we don’t have one special day to say thank you to our children? To thank them for putting up with our busy lives, to thank them for understanding us as we have had to learn and grow along with them. I think we as parents need to slow down for one day and reflect on how our children have changed our lives, how they have brought us joy and laughter along with tears and how they have helped us grow as human beings. Our children have taught us patience, love, understanding and unconditional love, we need to celebrate this as parents and be proud of the good kids we

Fraser Valley Talent Show was excellent Had the pleasure of going to the Fraser Valley Talent Show. It was a well-attended event in a beautiful venue. I have been to many talent shows over the years and this one stood out as excellent in

terms of organization and talent. Loved seeing the old fellas playing harmonica, but what especially impressed me was the depth and skill of the many and varied dance acts. Holy moly! Never have I seen

better from so many, so young. I was glad not to be a judge. Top to bottom, the show was fun. Well done. Gerry Bonshor

I want to take a moment to ask each and every parent to make one day on your calendar every year a day to celebrate and thank your children for loving you, for forgiving you for your faults, for trying their hardest to make you proud, for putting a smile on your face even when you don’t feel like smiling for hugging you when you need it and for understanding that we as parents are not perfect. Our children are our future, our children are a product of ourselves, our children are our greatest blessing, our children make us proud so why not celebrate that.

As a mother I was happily surprised by my son (who could not be here) on Mother’s Day with a picture of himself and the children of Tytoo Gardens Children’s Orphanage in Haiti, holding a homemade sign wishing me a Happy Mothers day It got me thinking: Why is it that we don’t celebrate a day just for children? In today’s society, where all we seem to hear is the bad things about today’s youth, why do we not celebrate the beauty and goodness in our children? In a new and ever changing world of two parents having to work and being busy and having to miss soccer games, baseball,

Agassiz RCMP are asking for help to identify a suspect in a brazen robbery. Around 4 p.m. Friday, the victim was riding an electric wheelchair on Morrow Road, east of Highway Nine. The suspect ran up from behind, grabbed her purse and tried to take off. The victim held onto her purse long enough to be pulled from her wheelchair and hit her head on the sidewalk, suffering a brief seizure as a result. She saw several vehicles in the area at the time. “We believe that somebody witnessed this horrible act,” said investigator Cst. Bruce Johnson. “We are reaching out to the public for information to apprehend the person who carried out this despicable act and bring closure to the victim.” Anyone with info is asked to call Agassiz RCMP Cpl. Dwayne Farlin at 604-798-5416 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 (TIPS).

NEW!

The Upper Fraser Valley Regional Detachment of the RCMP has eight new auxiliary constables on board. A graduation ceremony was held last Thursday at the drill hall of the Pacific Region Training Center. Tanya Bezemer, Jennifer Dueck, Terr y Hartwick, Kristy Hutchinson, Gage McLaren, Devon Remington, Logan Ullyot and Kyle Vandermeer received their badges from Office in Charge Deanne Burleigh. They worked hard to earn those badges, completing 180 hours of courses in law, police sciences, defensive use-of-force tactics and crime prevention techniques. They join an established group of 25 veteran auxiliary constables, and they’ll now be required to log 160 hours of volunteer time, including ridealongs with regular members and other crime prevention initiatives.

Chilliwack RCMP are looking for information after two English bulldogs went missing from a home in the 6500 block of Payne Road. Police suspect dogs – kept in a closed kennel in the back yard of the rural property – were taken. The owner noticed the dogs were missing last Thursday at around 11 a.m. The two dogs, threeyear-old Oliver and seven-month-old Piper (father and daughter), have a friendly disposition and can be identified by microchip. “Oliver and Piper are valued pets and we would love to reunite them with their family” said Cpl. Len vanNieuwenhuizen. The Chilliwack RCMP are actively investigating this matter and are canvassing the general public for information. Any one

He has a highly recognizable face to fans of comedic storytelling. Writer, producer, and actor Brent Butt was spotted on the Chilliwack campus of UFV when he was shooting, No Clue, the mystery thriller he wrote and co-starred in last year. Butt plays a guy who falls into the role of a detective to solve a murder. “It went well,” he tells The Progress over the phone from his Vancouver office. “I’m super happy with how it turned out.” The UFV building was transformed into a high-tech gaming company headquarters. “You’ll recognize it. Visually it’s a very interesting building and it looks very good on film.” This week the former Corner Gas star is on his way back to town to headline the Chilliwack Cultural Centre in a standup comedy show on May 24. Butt has always honed his standup chops, and his style he describes as “conversational.” It’s the only kind of word that fits. “A friend of mine years ago said my comedy was like having coffee with a friend.” The first time he ever saw a standup comic, he knew it was right for him. Standup comedy has changed stylistically over the years since he started slinging jokes in the late 1980s. “I guess it’s cyclical. I’m noticing a real trend in one-liner style comics coming up now. “When I when started it was all one-liners. Then it was observational comedy, and then it was all about storytelling.” But in the end, all that matters is that a comic is authentic. “I never worried about chasing trends,” he said. “I do what I do. If it’s authentic, the audience will buy it.” He comes by it honestly. As the youngest of seven children, growing up in the Saskatchewan farm town,

they entertained each other. A lot. And his parents and siblings were very funny themselves. “If I could ever make any of them laugh, that was the high-water mark.” Along the way, Brent won four Canadian Comedy Awards for Best Male Stand-up (2001), Best Male TV Performance (Corner Gas, 2004, 2005) and Best Writing - TV Series (Corner Gas, 2004). Butt was also honoured with the Comedy Network Sir Peter Ustinov Award at the World Television Festival (2008). Past honourees are the likes of John Cleese, Bob Newhart, John Candy and Eugene Levy. The affable star is making his transition to the big screen with No Clue. The process is almost complete. It was the first movie project his production company has ever taken on. “It was a scary thing going into it,” he admits. “But it’s been both exciting and fun.” He co-stars with Amy Smart in the movie, directed by Carl Bessai. It was shot in Vancouver, Chilliwack and Squamish. “It’s a classic whodunit murder mystery. It’s going to be true to the genre. We didn’t want any zany, goofy comedy. “It’s true to the film noir detective story. It just turns out funny because the guy ends up in funny situations. But everything else in real and gritty and it works.” He got to see the finished product last week with the sound, pictures, editing, colour correction and blending complete. All the movie making elements are finally in place. “It’s nice when you can sit back and see how others will be looking at a film. You never know how it’s going to work until it’s all put together.” Now it’s onto getting the distribution lined up. So that’s done. What’s left to do? “I want to write a novel, and I want to write and produce a play. Those are the last two ticks on my to-do list.” He writes a lot. Continued: BUTT/ p22

Scene&Heard Former Corner Gas star Brent Butt returns to Chilliwack BUTT from page 19

“It’s a process I don’t like very much. But when I’m not writing, I want to get back at it.” But it’s so labour intensive and it’s like

“bashing your head” against the wall. “I love finishing a project,” he said. “But then I get some more stupid ideas and I’m back in my office writing them down.”

He’d like to work with director Adam McKay someday. “I like the idea of working with a director who understands comedy as much or better than I do. In my work, I’ve

always been in charge of the funny. I oversee it. But I love the idea of working with someone like Adam who is a good visual storyteller, but who is also hilarious and knows everything about

comedy.” For more information about Butt go to www. brentbutt.com. Rock.It Boy Entertainment presents Brent Butt, Friday, May 24 at the Chilliwack

Time to tune up before heading out to the garden Tune Up from page 26 garden. As you warm up, you can ease into the heavier tasks. Avoid bending over Getting down on your knees in the dirt instead of bending over puts much less stress on your back and spine. Wear kneepads for added comfort, or kneel on a folded towel. If you must bend over, limit the time spent in this position. Take stretch breaks regularly. To stretch, stand up, place your hands on your lower back and arch back slightly. Change positions often Staying in one position for too long can lead to strain on certain muscles and joints. Similarly, doing the same repetitive task for too long, such as shoveling or raking, can also cause soreness. To save your body, change positions frequently. When raking, or doing similar tasks, switch hands regularly to balance the muscles in your body. Also, take frequent breaks to give your muscles some rest. Injuries are less likely to occur when you’re fresh and not fatigued. Recruit those muscles! When lifting, carrying, shoveling, raking, squatting, and any other movement you do in the garden, activate your muscles to prevent injuries. For example, if you’re about to lift something heavy, recruit your abdominals by drawing your naval toward your spine before you lift. The muscles surrounding your spine can help prevent back injuries- but only if they are turned on. Use good form Just like in the gym, form is important in the garden. To lift an object, bend at the knees in either a squat position, or by kneeling on one leg. Carry objects close to your body to avoid excess load on your lower back. If you need to tackle a heavy object, ask someone to help you. When trimming, raking or digging, use your legs to move your body instead of bending and twisting at the waist. Finally, keep those well-trained abdominal muscles engaged to prevent back injuries. Be sun savvy While the warm sun is a welcomed change from our long

Posture problems Most golfers address the ball with either a curved upper back or an excessive curvature in the lower back, writes Jennifer Greggain

Sardis secondary school super fan Tyler Dyck helped the basketball Falcons soar to provincials for the first time in school history, energizing the team with support from the stands. JENNA HAUCK/ PROGRESS

Green Guy leads Falcon fans For the third year in a row, the Chilliwack Progress and Sardis secondary school’s Grade 10 honours english class have partnered up for the ‘Let’s Get Published’ project. Guided by teacher Brad Geary, students write sportsrelated articles, with the best ones getting published in the Progress sports section.

Tania Dyck,

Sardis secondary We’re green! We’re white! We’re Falcon dynamite! Sardis Falcons! Sardis Falcons! For the first time in the Sardis secondary school history, the senior boys basketball team went to provincials. They made school history in the spring, finishing eighth at the year-end tournament. In the process, they captivated all who came out to

see their games, not only with their superior playing but also by the actions of their enthusiastic fans. The team was accompanied to provincials by several diehard fans, with the school sending several fan buses throughout the weekend. Filled to the brim, the buses contained members of the school’s famous drum line and several screaming fans, including a very excited Tyler Dyck, one of Sardis’ very own green men. Tyler followed the team throughout the season. He first appeared at one of their tournaments, and kept coming back with a growing entourage. Sardis had never before seen a fan like him, one who did whatever possible to pump up fans. From banging on plastic water jugs until they broke to yelling at the other team through a megaphone, Tyler stopped at nothing. The only thing that came close to curbing his enthusiasm was a sharp admonishment from a Sardis teacher to put his shirt back on. As his theatrics increased, so did the number of fans coming out to cheer. Some showed up simply for the chance to see Tyler make a fool out himself. Others wandered into the gym to see what the fuss was about, and got

swept up in the thrill of the game. By the time the Falcons earned their spot in provincials, their games were being attended by upwards of 200 spectators. While the team moved closer to the game that would launch them into provincials, their fan base continued to evolve. And with it, their outfits. The stands became a sea of green and white as fans dug through their closets and made trips to various thrift stores around Chilliwack. Face paint, pom-poms, and hard-hats adorned various fans as they cheered on their boys, but once again Tyler exceeded all others when it came to how far he would go to pump up the crowds. As the season neared a close, his outfit consisted of a full-body green spandex suit, a green hat and necklace, Sardis sunglasses and a calf-length fur coat. Two green suits were purchased as a way to promote school spirit at an upcoming assembly. Afterwards, Tyler adopted the suit into his wardrobe and has since worn it to several school functions. While he admits rap artist Macklemore inspired the faux fur coat, he did buy it two weeks before the ‘Thrift Shop’ music video even came out. The coat had been origi-

nally purchased because he thought it was a good deal when he spotted it at Value Village for $20. Word of the team’s invite to provincials was met with great fanfare at the school. A pep rally was organized and band teacher Bruno Gagnon began organizing fan buses to transport the students out to the Langley Events Centre. The team played four games total, winning two and losing two. Sardis fans faithfully cheered on their boys through the highs and lows of the tournament. Tyler led the fans in cheers inspired by the Vancouver Whitecap Southsiders, earning the attention of the announcers and other officials. Their enthusiasm provoked members of teams not playing to cheer for Sardis’ opposition, simply because they felt bad that the other team and its supporters were being intimated by the wholehearted support of Sardis fans. After the final Falcon game, tournament officials awarded the School Spirit award to the Sardis fans. They were deemed the loudest and proudest, going above and beyond the call of duty to let everyone know that they appreciated their players win or lose. Sardis fans proved they had the most school spirit in the province, simply by being ‘falcon awesome.’

Does your golf swing feel shorter and more limited than it used to? Do you find lower back pain developing when you swing? For students who describe these symptoms, I first check their golf posture. Ideally, every golfer will set up in a neutral spine position, with very little curvature in the back. However, most golfers address the ball with either a curved upper back, or with excessive curvature in the lower back. Both positions will dramatically affect the swing, and can even cause injury. For golfers who set up with a curved upper back, this is called a ‘C-Spine’ posture, and directly affects rotation of your thoracic spine (T-Spine). If you have limited rotation in your T-Spine, you will create compensations in your golf swing. Either you have a very short backswing and have thus lost distance. Or, you have broken down the extension in your back swing to try and make your golf swing feel bigger. This compensation often leads to inconsistent ball striking, also known as the dreaded topped shot. On the other hand, for those golfers who set up with excessive curvature in the lower back, this is called an ‘S-Spine’ posture, which is one of the leading causes of lower back pain in the swing. If you have noticed any of these symptoms happening in your game, take a few minutes to check your posture. Take your golf set up in front of a mirror, and turn to the side. Do you have a neutral spine, or do you notice any excessive curvature in your upper or lower back? If you notice a C-Spine posture, there are exercises and drills you can do to improve this position. First, invest in a six-inch foam roller, which can be found in most stores that carry exercise equipment. Place the roller on the ground, lie down with your back on

the roller, feet flat on the ground and hands behind your head. Roll up and down the roller from the middle of the back to the upper back, for approximately two minutes. Then, do some rotational drills. One of my favourites is called the ‘Open Book.’ For this exercise, lie on your side with your knees slightly bent and your arms pointed straight out to the side. Rotate your top arm across your body as far back as you can, while keeping your knees on the ground. You should feel a stretch across your chest as your arm gets closer to the ground. For those with an S-Posture set up, you will want to strengthen your core muscles. One exercise to help you with this is to lie on the ground with your knees bent, and feet flat on the floor. Now, tilt your pelvis so that the arch in your lower back is touching the floor. Imagine you are ‘crushing’ the ground with your lower back. Raise your right leg off the ground and hold for five seconds, then repeat with the left leg. Do this several times on each side, but be sure to not let your lower back arch. After you have done these exercises, return to the mirror and try to achieve a more neutralspine position. If possible, when you go practice at your local driving range, try to find a stall with a mirror so you can check for good posture before every swing.

astroadvice ARIES - Mar 21/Apr 20 Aries, you don’t always have the answers when it comes to your romantic relationship, but that’s alright. There are no rule books for this type of thing; you learn as you go. TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21 Taurus, your life has been relatively tranquil. However, you have been itching to do something fun and adventurous to turn things around. This could be the week for that. GEMINI - May 22/Jun 21 You may find that one of your coworkers is more critical of your work than usual, Gemini. Don’t take it the wrong way,

as constructive criticism can be a good thing. CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22 Cancer, things have calmed down considerably in your life. This week presents a good opportunity to take a trip that is geared entirely around your interests. LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23 Leo, remain modest about your personal and professional accomplishments this week. Now is not the time to show off. Be humble in your conversations. VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22 Virgo, as inviting as a situation may look, appearances can be deceiving.

LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23 Libra, this week you need to be extra cautious if you are in the middle of any business dealings. All it can take is the slightest misstep to turn everything around. SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22 Scorpio, things beyond your control may be contributing to sour feelings this week. Look at the bright side of any situation and you can probably find a solution that works.

CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20 Try to get outside as much as possible this week, Capricorn. The fresh air and sunshine can do wonders for your mood. Plus, you can get in some exercise. AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18 Do not follow the examples of others when they act irrationally to a certain situation, Aquarius. Although it can be difficult, you need to take the high road. PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20 Take a chance and express all of your goals and hopes this week, Pisces. Others may be surprised at what you have to say.

She is survived by her son Donald (Denise), her grandsons Justin and Lucas (Jesse), long-time and dearest friends Bert & Lorna Perry, and her constant canine compassion â€“ Sadie.

Obituaries FORTIN Joy Gertrude

nee Abrams Joy peacefully passed away surrounded by family and friends in Chilliwack on FORTIN May 20, 2013 at the age of 87 years old. She was born on April 22, 1926 in New Westminster, B.C. Joy is predeceased by her husband Laurence Fortin and her brothers, Stan, Ralph and Howard Abrams. She is survived by her brother Don Abrams, children Diane (Don) Catt, Charlie (Cecelia) Fortin, Jeff (Shauna) Fortin, grandchildren Sarah (Sebastien), Jenna (Justin), Stephen, Daniel (Stefanie), Graham, Sean and Catherine, great grandchildren Emilie and Elise, sistersin-law Yvonne (Lou) Hamel and Delphine Fortin and dear friend Nancy Royal. Whenever visiting Joy in sunny Sardis youâ€™d be promptly offered one of her famous peanut butter and marshmallow squares, slice of home-made pumpkin pie or a warm cup of tea (unless youâ€™d prefer Ovaltine). While you caught up, she might have put on some big band music. Perhaps something musician Laurence performed for Joy when the two first met. If you faintly heard CKNW 980 outside her door, no need to knock, Joy was probably at Cultus Lake. Maybe out for a swim, game of cribbage or stroll to Sunnyside. One of Joyâ€™s mottoâ€™s was to â€œtravel when youâ€™re youngâ€? and she did just that with her family and close friends that created many wonderful memories over the years. She has the slides to prove it. The family is thankful for the exceptional care from Dr. Mark MacKenzie, as well as the staff at Valley Haven and Hampton House. A Celebration of Life will be held at 1:30 pm on Thursday, May 30, 2013 at Carmen United Church, 7258 Vedder Road Chilliwack. A Reception to follow the Service in the church hall. In Lieu of flowers, please make donations to the Canadian Cancer Society or to Carmen United Church.

August 14, 1942 â€“ May 13, 2013 It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved Normand. He died ST-DENIS at Chilliwack General Hospital in his 70th year after a courageous battle with lung cancer. He was born August 14, 1942 to Marcel and Germaine (nee Demers) and spent the early part of his life in MontrĂŠal, QuĂŠbec. Normand is survived by his loving wife of 50 years, Louise Dorris, his daughter Caroline (Bert) Odegard and his two grandchildren StĂŠphanie and Marc-AndrĂŠ, all residents of Chilliwack. He is also survived by his siblings Denys, Lise and AndrĂŠe St-Denis of QuĂŠbec. Norm graduated from Les Hautes Ă‰tudes Commercial (HEC) of MontrĂŠal as a professional accountant, but his passion was always sales. He was dedicated to providing excellent customer service in all of his many endeavours. He was also passionate about gardening, which he continued to enjoy right up to the end. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him. A celebration of Normandâ€™s life will be held at the Chilliwack Best Western Inn on May 26th from 1:00pm to 4:00pm. In lieu of flowers, donations to the Canadian Cancer Society in Normandâ€™s name would be greatly appreciated.
