Pot petition coming to Chilliwack Alina Konevski The Progress A group of Chilliwack residents are preparing for a massive street campaign to gather signatures in support of marijuana decriminalization. “I personally think we’re just misinformed...I don’t think it (marijuana’s) being illegal is justified,” said local volunteer coordinator Ceara Sinead Doyle. About 40 Chilliwack volunI think teers have so far signed on to a prothat we’re vincial campaign coming to an to gather 400,000 signatures, rep- understanding resenting 10 per now cent of B.C. voters. This would trigger ~ Ceara a provincial referendum in 2014 to Sinead Doyle decriminalize possession of small amounts of marijuana. The organizing group, Sensible B.C., wants the province to pass a so-called Sensible Policing Act, which will stop police from searching or arresting people in B.C. for small cases of possession. The group terms the amendment “sensible” because it would purportedly save police time and resources. Doyle believes there is “definitely” a strong pro-decriminalization undercurrent in Chilliwack. “I think that we’re coming to an understanding now. We’re not in the dark ages anymore. We have the internet. We can do our own research, instead of just believing the stuff you hear,” she said. Doyle has witnessed the beneficial side of light marijuana use, such as when her grandmother used pills derived from the main chemical in cannabis to manage pain related to ovarian cancer.

Forest fire threatens Harrison homes Jessica Peters Black Press
fire starting at the roadside of Rockwell Drive and likely caused by people, said Fire Chief Wayne Dyer. He added that afternoon south winds resulted in the fire being carried up towards the homes. Investigators from the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations and the District of Kent fire department will continue their investigation in the morning. About an hour after the fire started, the water bomber flew in and doused the flames with red retardant twice. Rockwell Drive was temporarily closed
off as the fire was being contained. Homeowners and campers converged in parking lots, on the docks, and in the road, all cut off from their homes and campsites. One woman worried whether her husband could secure the house, and if she could get her medication for the evening. Campers wondered whether they would be left to sleep in their vehicles in Harrison. One Agassiz man noted that the same side of the mountain burned back in the late ‘50s or early ‘60s, and that his father fought that fire.

Fire crews were back on the scene of a small forest fire along the edge of Harrison Lake Tuesday. The fire broke out just after 4 p.m. Monday, and was threatening at least four homes along Rockwell Drive, about one kilometre from the Village of Harrison. Fire crews quickly got the blaze under control, with a total of 17 firefighters on the ground, four engines and a tender, four helicopters with monsoon buckets and an airtanker
with retardant. The fire covered about .3 hectare, and on Monday evening was about 80 per cent contained. While a 24 hour fire watch was in place overnight, fire fighting operations were ceased overnight due to darkness. Tuesday morning, the District of Kent fire department is on scene with ground crews from Wildfire Management. Both the District and the Village fire departments responded to the fire, however, the fire is in the District of Kent. Preliminar y investigation points to the location of the

Fraser sockeye test fishing curtailed to conserve weak run Jeff Nagel Black Press Lower-than-hoped returns of Fraser River sockeye and dangerously hot water temperatures upstream have prompted fishery managers to curtail test fishing in a bid to let as many salmon spawn as possible. About 82,000 sockeye have already been caught through test fisheries and those salmon are sold to help offset the $1.4-million cost of the test program, which is critical to gauging the strength of incoming runs. Pacific Salmon Commission chief biologist Mike Lapointe said Wednesday about half of test fishing operations have now been cancelled.
And three seine boats that continue to test fish offshore are now ordered to release nearly all sockeye after counting them instead of harvesting them. “We’re trying to be good citizens and minimize our impact,” Lapointe said. Asked why test fishing wasn’t adjusted earlier, he said the commission acted quickly once it became apparent continued hot, dry weather would pose a major risk. “As soon as we knew we had a bad situation we acted as fast as we could,” Lapointe said. “Ideally, in perfect hindsight, it would have been nice if we could have stopped sooner but there was no way for us to anticipate that.” Although the test fishing pro-
gram is $200,000 short of the revenue to cover its expenses, Lapointe said conservation, not budget concerns, guided the timing of the decision. Sto:lo fishery advisor Ernie Crey said first nations have argued for catch-and-release test fishing for years, adding it would have reduced pressure on threatened Fraser stocks. “Far more fish would have been up the Fraser River in all the intervening years,” Crey said. “It’s better late than never. Finally they do the right thing at a time when fish runs are perilously low.” There’s been no commercial and sport fishing for Fraser sockeye this summer with no prospect for any unless the main summer run merely turns out to be late in
arriving. Lapointe said there are some signs that may be the case. But even then, deadly high river water temperatures of more than 21 degrees now threaten to kill up to 70 per cent of incoming sockeye before they can spawn, meaning many more must be allowed to swim upriver to compensate. “We’re expecting only on the order of a third of these fish to survive their journey up the Fraser to the spawning areas,” Lapointe said. As a result, he said, there’s a “significant risk” that no more sockeye may end up spawning this year than in the disastrous 2009 season that triggered the Cohen Inquiry. Sockeye run on a four-year
cycle, so the fish now migrating are the offspring of the 2009 run, and it had been hoped this would be the year that run started to rebuild. The main summer run of Fraser sockeye is estimated at two million and although Lapointe said that may climb it may not be enough. “We need a significantly larger run to get to any kind of harvestable surplus because the river conditions are so bad.” Aboriginal food fishing has also been halted after a catch of about 270,000 sockeye, mainly from the early summer and early Stuart components of the run that had come in a bit stronger than expected.

Chain of events leads to fatal motorcyclist crash
RCMP were on scene at a fatal motorcycle collision on Highway 1 near Annis Road in Chilliwack Tuesday where a 72-year-old man from Pitt Meadows died. JENNA HAUCK/ PROGRESS
A 72-year-old Pitt Meadows man is dead after a Tuesday morning motorcycle accident on Highway No. 1 in Chilliwack. RCMP had been called to a single vehicle accident 90 minutes earlier at the Annis Road overpass. A truck loaded with salmon had gone out of control and rolled. The two people inside, a man and a woman, got out and ran away. While RCMP used police dogs to search the nearby cornfields, eastbound traffic backed up two kilometres toward Chilliwack. The man on the motorbike slammed on the brakes when he saw the stopped traffic. But he lost control, fell off and slid at high speed
into a Ford SUV. He died at the scene. At this point, weather and road conditions have been ruled out as causes of the accident, leaving traffic conditions, speed, mechanical defects and driver inattention as possible culprits. Thus far, the man and woman from the first accident have not been found. “We’re fairly confident we know who the male is, though we’ve yet to confirm our suspicion,” he noted. “If it is in fact that individual who was operating that vehicle, he is believed to be a prohibited driver.” Witnesses to either accident who haven’t spoken to police can call Cst. Peter Ostrom at 604-702-4039.
Chilliwack not hit Ralph Goodale coming to Party in the Park by software breach Jennifer Feinberg The Progress
City of Chilliwack was not one of the B.C. municipalities hit recently by a software security breach. A pre-authorized payment system by Adobe had its security compromised in the Cities of Abbotsford, Victoria, Maple Ridge, Oak Bay and District of West Vancouver. Although Chilliwack does rely on the same software vendor for some of these services, they were not affected in this instance, said officials. Cities that employ the payment system were told to check with their banks and credit unions for evidence of problems. The breach was on July 22, and repairs have been made since.

The Liberal Party of Canada has its sights set on Chilliwack. First it was Liberal leader hopeful Justin Trudeau striding and flashing his smile through the streets of downtown last November. Now Liberal MP Ralph Goodale, a former finance minister and deputy leader of the Opposition in the House of Commons, is planning to attend Party in the Park in Central Community Park on August 23. “All across the country there is growing momentum around Justin Trudeau and the Liberal Party,” Goodale said in a

phone interview with The Progress, from his constituency office in Wascana, Sask. The veteran MP was first elected to the House when he was 24, and he was named Canada’s first-ever “Parliamentarian of the Year” by his peers in 2006. Officials with the Chilliwack-Fraser Canyon Riding Association were the ones who invited Goodale to Chilliwack this summer. In terms of why he decided to accept the offer and travel to Chilliwack, Goodale replied that summer “is always a good time” to get out and meet people. “The only real timing consideration here is that it’s the first time it turned out to be possible for me to come to Chilliwack,” he said.

There will be no formal agenda, he emphasized, as he visits Chilliwack’s popular Friday night event, Party in the Park. Part of the trip is to show that Liberals aren’t always pigeonholing Western Canadian voters. “I will be doing a lot of listening,” he said. “That’s my objective.” The party is feeling hopeful. “Obviously we’ve gone through a difficult series of elections in recent years, and the party has worked hard on renewal. “This has culminated in three things: better organizational structures across the country; much better fundraising and financing capacity; and the selection of Continued: GOODALE/ p6

It now looks like this year’s total Fraser River run will fall well short of the forecast of roughly 4.6 million but better than the 1.6 million return of 2009 when more than 10 million were expected. There may be commercial, aboriginal and sport fishing for Fraser pink salmon – which are expected to arrive strongly in September – but that could also be reined in if there’s a risk of late-running sockeye being caught as a bycatch.

Breaking new ground in housing Jennifer Feinberg The Progress It’s a new condo development that will change the housing landscape for retirees — in Chilliwack and across the province. Ground was broken last Saturday on the Englewood Courtyard project, located on a 2.75 acre property on Keith Wilson Road. The first phase will see construction of a $10.5 million apartment building with 40 units, set to become the tallest wood-frame structure in Chilliwack at five storeys, specifically crafted for baby boomers. “We are thrilled to be breaking ground for our Englewood Courtyard project and proud to partner with both the B.C. government and SAFERhome Standards Society to create homes that will meet the changing needs of homeowners as they age,� said Mark Perry of Englewood Courtyard Management before the groundbreaking ceremony. He offered facts and figures, floating the notion that two groups of B.C. baby boomers will be looking to downsize, buy up, and free equity in the next 15 years or so. The younger cohort has existing mortgages, while the older group of boomers has free and clear title to their homes worth an estimated $88 billion dollars in B.C., Perry noted. So it’s only logical to start building housing stock with all of this in mind, he told the crowd. “In seeing these population demographics it is ever apparent that we, as developers, should build products that buyers of today and in the future will want,� Perry said. “It makes no sense at all to build a condo building with the wrong design for the baby boomer of the future.�
The number of 65- to 74-year-olds in the B.C. by 2027 will rise 69 per cent — from 191,000 to 322,000 people. The groundbreaking event was also an opportunity to announce a pilot research project, between the BC Housing’s Homeowner Protection Of fice, SAFERhome Standards Society and the developer, looking at the true costs and benefits of the 19-point list of universal design elements set to be used in Englewood Courtyard construction. “Universal design� is geared to planning for changing lifestyles and accessibility needs, such as installing lower light switches, no thresholds and wider doorways, which make it easier for seniors to age in place. One feature focuses on a high-tech solution, linking phone lines, video and computer systems. But most importantly many of the standards don’t cost anything extra to implement and install if they’re incorporated into the initial design from the get-go. “Universal design is about everyone,� said SAFERhome standards executive director Patrick Simpson in the release. “It’s a way of keeping children safer, a way of more easily having grandparents live or visit at home, and a way to age in place with dignity. “Universal design creates more inclusive communities and supports inter-generational living.� It’s a first research project of its kind for the non-profit SAFERhome Standards Society, which together with Englewood Courtyard developers, will be incorporating the universal standards into the multi-unit residential complex. The province through HPO is providing $93,600 to cover SAFERhome inspection and certifica-
stages of life.� The research study connected with the Englewood project will be completed and published in 2015. For more on affordable housing in B.C., visit: www.bchousing.org or www.hpo.bc.ca  To learn more about the 19 universal design standards: www.saferhomesociety.com
tion costs for all 156 units. “Making homes more accessible for those who wish to age in place is an important step in helping B.C. residents remain independent in the community,� said Chilliwack MLA John Martin. “Our government will continue to seek out and support innovative solutions that meet the diverse housing needs of British Columbians at all

new party leader.� Momentum is leading to a “new sense of purpose and direction,� Goodale says. “The party is getting excited about the prospects for the next election.� Canadians will be heading to the polls in 2015, which gives would-be Liberal candidates time to get well prepared to run. “There is a really good mood,� he says. “People have decided they would like to see change; see something positive and constructive.� “I think people are looking at Mr. Trudeau and the Liberal Party with a fresh openness, optimism and hope that we can build a better government.� They’re out for paradigm-changing political reform “so democracy
becomes genuine,� Goodale says. That includes not having candidates appointed to represent the party, but rather working to build strong, viable, grass-roots constituency organizations, that will be functioning well in every riding. The leader wants the expenses of all MPs to be published every quarter. “That is a timely topic right now,� he says. But changing the rules of the House of Commons might take some time, he reckons. “The Liberal Party is going to start doing that on a volunteer basis.� They want to cut the partisan “whipping� in the House. “We have concluded that it is not always necessary,� Goodale offers, adding they want to allow MPs to think for themselves, vote

Some of the ideas he’s talking about include limiting the use of omnibus bills, and looking to put more power and authority in the hands of the MPs, as opposed to solely the Prime Minister’s office, as well as more parliamentary control over government spending.

Time to reform Senate
The Chilliwack
Progress
R AESIDE
The latest revelation from the ongoing Senate expense scandal is that Saskatchewan Senator Pamela Wallin will likely be asked to repay about $120,000 in expenses. This comes as a result of an external audit of her expenses, which in about two years were more than $300,000. While Prime Minister Stephen Harper has worked to try and reform the Senate from within since winning power in 2006, it is clear that this institution just doesn’t get it. It is notable that two of the most profligate senators in the spending department, Wallin and Mike Duffy, were longtime TV journalists who regularly reported on numerous scandals in Ottawa. They join two other senators, Mac Harb and Patrick Brazeau, in showing Canadians how out of touch the Senate is with the real folks who pay taxes to support this kind of behaviour. All but Harb were appointed by Harper. Harper’s government has now asked the Supreme Court of Canada to rule on just how Senate reform can proceed, as the institution is mandated in the constitution and thus is very hard to change. But it clearly has a lot of institutional problems which are deep-rooted. If there were a national referendum on abolition of the Senate, it would likely pass in each province. But provinces don’t give up powers easily, and all it would take is one province decide against abolition and the institution would remain. The Senate is badly in need of radical reform. Perhaps a first step would be to limit senators’ expenses to a modest maximum amount which would cover real expenses run up in the course of their duties, such as travel to meetings and modest accommodations when out of town. The Conservatives have a majority in the Senate, thanks to a raft of appointments from Harper. If the government wants to truly do something to remove at least some of the stench from the Senate, it must act swiftly to show the public that it takes misappropriations of public money seriously. Otherwise, the Senate scandal will be a potent factor in the next federal election, and the outrage by many members of the public won’t be good news for the governing party. ~ Black Press

Get ready for another round of liquor reforms VICTORIA – The B.C. Liberal government is ordering up another round of liquor regulation changes, looking for ways to make life easier for businesses and customers without aggravating the health and social problems associated with alcohol. Discussions with B.C.’s 10,000 liquor licence holders have identified a few problems that should be fixed. Going into a consultation phase that runs to October, the government is looking for answers to a few obvious questions, such as why it takes a pub or bar up to a year to get a licence. Another question: why can a family with under-aged children go into a licensed restaurant for lunch, but can’t go to a pub and place the exact same food and drink order? This should be allowed, perhaps until the traditional 5 p.m. “happy hour” when the pub reverts to

adults-only. A couple of suggestions have come out of the healthy growth of B.C. wine, craft beer and distillery operations. Look for new licence opportunities for farmers’ markets to sell local beverages along with the produce and preserves. Letters inviting Tom suggestions from FLETCHER existing licence holders have gone out, and Richmond-Steveston MLA John Yap will be meeting this fall with industry groups, local governments, police, health and social policy organizations and First Nations in the fall. A website will be put up in September so members of the public can have their say. Here’s my
suggestion to start things off. Recent incidents involving socalled “party buses” shone a light on this growing industry, The sudden death of a 16-year-old on a party bus outing in Surrey in February turned out not to be alcohol-related, but to no one’s surprise, open liquor was found aboard the bus. Open liquor isn’t allowed in any vehicle, but perhaps a new kind of special event licence could be created for party buses. They have been viewed mainly as part of the solution to impaired driving, and the situation isn’t much different from a supervised event on a boat. Here’s another suggestion. Gourmet cooking classes are becoming popular, with customers preparing and then enjoying their meals. Why not license these establishments, at least so people can bring their own wine for din-
ner? Both the B.C. Liberals and NDP have advocated for easing the archaic rules on inter-provincial trade in wine. B.C. lifted its restrictions on mail-order wine and has urged other provinces to follow suit. There are a couple of reasons why this Prohibition-era structure persists. Liquor sales are a cash cow for provincial governments, and every case of wine brought in from elsewhere is lost profit for the provincial wholesale monopoly. Then there is the local industry lobby that would rather not add to its competition. Premier Christy Clark pressed this point at the recent premiers’ meeting in Ontario wine country, bringing in the maximum amount of B.C. wine allowed under Ontario rules and urging free trade in Canadian wine.

The Toronto media drank it up, aghast that they were barred from ordering the latest Naramata Bench tipples directly. No movement so far from the Ontario government, in a province that has done well developing its own wine industry. The B.C. government will no doubt be lobbied again to allow beer and wine sales in grocery and convenience stores. Our politicians show little interest in that, which is understandable. The B.C. Liberals don’t want to upset the private liquor stores they have nurtured for a decade, and the NDP would never risk annoying the government liquor store union. There are more creative ways to liberalize alcohol sales. Tom Fletcher is legislative reporter and columnist for Black Press and BCLocalnews.com tfletcher@blackpress.ca

One-lane roundabouts are safer gated them as the circles are new here. At about 11 a.m. on Friday, Aug. 9 my husband and I were heading north on Evans to Eagle Landing. As we were going round the circle about to go onto the north part of Evans a CVSE van and a truck entered from Yale on the right, the lane to turn right immediately onto Evans, the CVSE van went straight on to Yale right in front of us. As we know this is a problem area
we are watchful and my husband was able to stop. My point is yes traffic circles are new and here to stay, but they are hard for the young drivers, new drivers and persons who are on the road every day, as well as the older drivers. Why do they have to be two lanes and dangerous for drivers, bikers, and walkers, why can’t they be one lane and safer for everyone? Vicki Lamb
Humans must respect wildlife Concerning the article about the cougar at Cultus Lake (Bullet ends cougar threat, Progress, Aug. 6). I realize you only report the news. I would like to express my disgust at the way in which you chose to display this story. This has got to be one of the more grotesque displays of inappropriate action toward wildlife I have seen in quite some time. I mean really, did you have to publish the carcass in trash bags on the tailgate of a truck? How can a cub terrorize hikers? By being curious as to what is in their territory? Why did the officials feel the need to kill this crea-
ture? Makes no sense to me. People continue to invade wildlife territories and then freak out when they actually encounter these creatures. This really could have and should have been handled in a much wiser way. We have a responsibility to protect and maintain their natural habitats. Humans do not own this planet nor do we have sole power over all of creation. Destruction of life to ensure profits is wrong on so many levels. Certainly there were other options available to deal with these sightings and visual encounters.
Where does the killing of wildlife stop? What’s next; to hunt down and kill the rest of the family of cougars? What if I came into your home and decided I did not like the way you looked at me and decided to end your life? Why do so many people put society and profit above life? Perhaps you should run another story on the rights of life for all creation. If you go into the wilderness you should expect to encounter wildlife. All should be prepared and willing to share this planet with all life forms. All of creation deserves the lives they are given. Mankind
needs to stop playing God and work on trying to fix and reverse the negative impact we have wrought upon this planet. This is the only one we have and we must care for it and all its inhabitants. To continue on our current path only leads to total devastation of this planet and all life that dwells upon it. Including the human animal. All life is precious and should be appreciated and protected. Seriously when will the human animal wake up and realize what we are doing to this planet and all that dwells on it? Stop the insanity. Dee Warren, Tennessee
Idiot behaviour puts others at risk Tonight, Tuesday 13th August, a segment on the TV news profiled a cyclist on Vancouver Island who was seriously injured after some idiot(s) strung electric wire across a well-used road. The unsuspecting cyclist was thrown from his cycle resulting in injuries which left him hospitalized. A few days ago my and husband and I were returning home, when, too late stop, we ran into a
cord tied from one tree to another across the bend on Hillcrest situated on the Little Mountain area of Chilliwack. Luckily we just had a scare but are very concerned about other habitants and visitors to our normally quiet streets. There is a senior citizen who regularly cycles up and down our little mountain and I shudder to think what damage would occur to this active person.
We have skateboarders who have fun riding their boards in this area and I am convinced these youths are not the culprits. These particular youths are polite and considerate to residents. Whoever these idiots are, I should ask that they reconsider their asinine actions before a serious accident takes place. Michael and Sylvia White

Something in the wind with Shannon Goldsmith Shannon Goldsmith has a day job and it keeps her rather busy but even in her down time, she’s hard at work. As the conductor of the newly established Cascadia Wind Ensemble, she’s well established and has the experience and passion to propel the group forward. Shannon is well respected in her field and as one of her ensemble members puts it, “She’s an interesting lady and very talented. Her track record is impressive and I find her a treat to work with. There’s a lot more to directing than waving the baton. She has to review scores, choose those that will be playable by the ensemble Ana while still providing a MACEDO bit of a challenge, and choose those that will provide a wide repertoire that will appeal to the public; a mix of classical, pop, Broadway, marches and even a touch of jazz or ragtime. Shannon seems to be able to bring it all together nicely.” Originally from Regina, Shannon was very active in that city’s music community, something that began when she was just a youngster. Her father and mother as well as her extended family weren’t particularly musical though they nurtured and supported her artistic flair. Her father worked for the J.I. Case
Company, a company that manufactured agricultural equipment. While her mother stayed at home for a time, she also worked as a school teacher and was also involved in realestate. When Shannon was around six, her parents encouraged their only child to take piano lessons and she has never looked back. “They presented it to me as an opportunity and as soon as I started playing, I loved it,” she chuckled. When Shannon hit the sixth grade, an age when children in the Regina school system began taking instrumental programs, she had a decision to make. “I had resolved to play the flute, something that every girl my age wanted to do. Then I looked and there were 40 girls in the flute line. I ended up deciding to play the French horn. I didn’t know much about it back then but I took a chance and ended up loving it,” she enthused. Shannon also continued to take piano lessons until she graduated from high school. After graduating, she went on to receive a bachelor of science degree with high honours in chemistry from the University of Regina. “I loved my music but I wanted to get a degree. I knew that I would always have my music and I could do it as an evening hobby,” she said. With her degree in hand, Shannon began working as a research chemist for a potash mining company
“...a voice that sounds like it saw creation and followed the devil down to hell...” “...Byrnes is a veritable national treasure, and if you like the blues you should know about him...” “Cross-breeding of soul and country, which recalls Otis Redding or Percy Sledge...” “...a modern twist on the blues tradition...backed by killer band, dominated by soulful vocals...”

News Pot activists want referendum Doyle is now looking for more volunteers to collect signatures in Chilliwack, and emphasizes that those interested need not necessarily go door-knocking. “If they have a network of people that they know supporting it, then they could sign up as a canvasser and then just get their friends and family to sign. Because it helps a lot.” In an effort to rally canvassers and supporters, the founder of Sensible B.C. is stopping in Chilliwack during his provincial tour. Dana Larsen will be at Evergreen Hall’s Minto Room (9291 Corbould Street) at 5 p.m. on Sunday, Aug. 18.

Elections B.C. granted approval in principle for the petition drive. Sensible B.C. is using the same voter initiative system that forced the repeal of the harmonized sales tax in B.C. The group will have 90 days starting Sept. 9 to collect signatures from 10 per cent of registered provincial voters in each of B.C.’s 85 electoral districts. If that target is met, a provincewide vote would be held on the proposed law. Individuals and groups have until Aug. 12 to register with Elections BC to oppose the initiative by advertising and collecting signatures against the initiative.

Perspectives
Making Chilliwack a better city for future generations serves as president and CEO of the National Institute for Families for Child and Youth Mental Health. Keli’s passion for this cause comes
from having a son with significant mental health challenges. Her dedicated efforts have been instrumental in creating awareness and change regarding children’s mental health in our province and the country. Her Eryn talk was WICKER engaging, honest, insightful and forthcoming. She spoke of the grassroots of the organizations she founded, their movement and their accomplishments. She also extended accolades to MCFD and CYMH in the Fraser region and updated the audience on her son, who was 10 years old when she started and has since graduated high school and moved on to college. A few key phrases, concepts, and insights stood out for me as I listened to Keli that morning: • Families are experts on themselves. Without their expertise we couldn’t do our jobs, so they need to be valued, listened to and included in the care path. • It’s not about blame, it’s about being family smart – and considering the practices that make us family smart: engage, involve, collaborate, empower. • Parents and family members should have an equal voice in their child’s care. • We need to build confidence in families – our job is to make sure parents and families can do their jobs; our job is NOT to do their job. • The system of care is a navigation nightmare. If we mapped every family’s journey through the system we would see multiple points of entry, including many missed opportunities. How do we make that easier and how do we let each door be the right door? • Families don’t fail; our supports and plans fail. When families are given what they need, almost every one of them can succeed. • There has been much progress over the past 13 years regarding the inclusion of families

August is a very important transitional time in our vegetable gardens. Some vegetables are still maturing, but many others have finished completely, leaving gaps here and there that could Brian still produce MINTER a few crops. In the Lower Mainland and the Valley, fast crops like lettuce, brassicas, peas, beans, radishes, swiss chard and beets can easily go in now, especially from started crops or transplants, for harvesting from September through next March and beyond. In southwestern BC, our vegetable gardens can be producing twelve months a year, and even in some colder parts of the province, selective planting can be done. Potted perennial vegetables, like horseradish, Jerusalem artichokes and rhubarb, can be planted now. Perennial herbs like mint, parsley, chives, marjoram and oregano can also be planted for some late fall and early spring additions to your culinary dishes. September is also the best time to plant garlic for next year. For some delicious spinach-like greens, swiss chard can be planted now. Once established, it will tolerate a fair bit of cold before it either freezes or goes dormant. The same is true of spinach. ‘Perennial Spinach’, which is actually a chard, and West Coast Seeds’ ‘Bloomsdale Savoy’ are two varieties that can be used in 45 days. There is even time for some root crops like beets. In the worst case scenario, all you will get are the greens, but even they are delicious. Varieties like ‘Winterkeeper Lutz’, for example, mature in 34 days - now that is quick! Lettuce is, by far, the most popular of greens, and seeded now, almost any variety of leaf lettuce will do just fine. The ‘Butter Crunch’ type matures in about 60 days, while the loose leaf varieties, like ‘Black

SENIORS HOUSING INFORMATION NIGHT
Spawning channels to be restored along Hopedale Slough Salmon spawning restoration efforts will be underway along the Hopedale Slough by Fraser Valley Watersheds Coalition next week in Yarrow. The watersheds group and its partners will be enhancing and restoring salmon spawning and rearing channels from Aug. 19-28. The goal is extending the length of a spawning channel to provide more aquatic habitat and sustained fresh water to salmon and the downstream reaches of this waterway, which is key dur-
ing hot, dry summer months. “This restoration will involve the use of heavy equipment and machinery,” said spokesperson Natashia Cox. “The Vedder South trail will still be open to the public so trail users are advised to read the caution signs and keep their distance from machinery during this time.” In the fall FVWC will be replanting this stream channel with native vegetation. Volunteer community members are needed to help plant and protect trees

and shrubs and enhance the area for wildlife. If you are interested in learning more about the restoration and/or volunteering for the replanting event, and/or who we are - please contact Natashia Cox at natashia@fvwc.ca or Rachel Drennan at Rachel@fvwc.ca. “We thank everyone for their support as we all work together to create Healthy Watersheds and Healthy Communities across the Fraser Valley.” More at www.fvwc.ca
Do you have an elderly relative who is requiring Seniors Housing or Care? Are YOU considering moving into a Seniors Complex? This evening will provide information and opportunity to ask questions about levels of care available in our community. Representatives from various care levels and Fraser Health Authority will be present. Please RSVP to 604.703.2112 with your name, phone number and level of care you are most interested in by Aug. 16.

The fifth annual Rockin’ River Music Fest is returning to the Mission Raceway Park this week. But this year, the stage and campsite are three times larger than in 2012. “It’s probably the biggest festival that’s ever come to the Lower Mainland,� said Kenny Hess, coowner of Rockin’ River Productions, and himself an acclaimed coun-

try and western musician performing at the festival. “They’re going to hear some of the best country music in the world.� On the roster is multiGrammy award winning artist Brad Paisley, whose latest album, Wheelhouse, deputed at number one on Billboard’s Top Country Albums chart. If even a fraction of Paisley’s two million Twitter followers show up at Rockin’ River, Hess will be right about this being the Lower Mainland’s biggest show ever. And Paisley is just the start of a sensational line-up. “This is the first year we’ve really stepped up and drawn from the ‘A’ pool. We’ve taken frontline artists,� said Hess. The party cowboys, Big & Rich, are set to deliver their signature original and electric show. Chris Young represents the next generation in country music talent. Emerson Drive will show exactly why they’ve been collecting music awards and nominations like matchboxes. And kicking off the festival on Thursday, Aug. 15, is none other than Trooper, one of Canada’s top-selling bands of all time. There are more than a dozen other big names and up-and-comers set to light up the festival. Hess is expecting 30,000 people over the weekend. Attendance has exploded, doubling every year since inception. The festival has received reservations from as far as Florida, Hawaii, the Yukon, and Newfoundland and Labrador. But Hess would still love to see more locals as Rockin’ River becomes a mainstay in the district. Hess has ramped up the production in anticipation of a huge uptake in audience numbers. This year’s massive stage is like a five-storey building, he says. That’s in line with Hess’ “if you build it, they will come� mentality. Full festival schedule and ticket info is at rockinriverfest.com.

Taking charge of mental health
Canada’s Tribute to
PERSPECTIVES from page 18 in their own care. Keli shared that she highlights the accomplishments of the Fraser region throughout her talks across the county. She is particularly proud of her role in creating National Child and Youth Mental Health day (May 7th). Nothing about us, without us (nihil de nobis, sine nobis) – a slogan used to communicate the idea that no policy should be decided by any representative without the full and direct participation of members of the group(s) affected by that policy. Originally stemming from the persons with physical disabilities movement, it is now widespread across groups that are often thought to be marginalized, including those with invisible disabilities such as mental health concerns. Makes sense in theory and in practice.

Amanda, Call Centre Trainer, Rogers Moncton, NB
It takes a lot to get world-class cellphone service in a country this big. I doubt Americans will bother with cities like mine. I believe communities like the Monctons of Canada should get the same technology as the big cities do. That way, my neighbours can be as productive and as plugged in as people in any other part of the country. It makes me proud. It’s a very Canadian thing. But I hear the government is inviting a giant U.S. cellphone company to Canada. What will this mean for smaller towns in Canada? I’m afraid it’s bad. Will this giant U.S. company virtually ignore small communities like mine and focus on big cities? That’s where all the money is, right? You know, when smaller towns and cities are left behind, it doesn’t just hurt me and my neighbours — it hurts the whole country. All we want is for it to be fair for Canadians. Ottawa should close the loopholes.

Home&Garden August important month for winter vegetables
NOW SHOWING
DESPICABLE ME 2 (G) CLOSED CAPTIONED FRI-SUN,TUE 12:10; MON,WED-THURS 2:35
OPEN TO ALL FAMILIES
Winter cauliflower, like ‘Galleon’ and cabbage, like ‘January King’, will mature in February if planted now. ‘Purple Sprouting’ and ‘Rudolph’ broccoli are other winter favourites. Many folks also transplant the late ‘Lacinato’(Black Tuscan), ‘Winterbor’ and ‘Redbor’ kale at this time of year. Winter hardy leeks can go in now as well, to round out your winter gardens. Today there is an excellent selection of winter veggies both from seed and transplants. You will probably not have enough empty spaces to plant all these wonderful fall and winter vegetables, but give some a try. When the weather cools down and all the tomatoes, peas, beans and peppers are gone, just think what you can look forward to - your own fresh taste of fall and winter.

adventure are with this newfound advantage over historical norms. Speed records on most established trails and large alpine summits have been shattered by ultra-lighters and this has simply helped to fuel the trend. Ultra light equipment enthusiasts, or ultra-lighters, have quickly proliferated the backcountry and are leading the demand for an even more aggressive equipment development race. Some people might scoff at the person striding past them on the west coast trail wearing nothing but spandex and a mesh vest and stuffing energy gel into their mouth to keep from collapsing, however this may just be the future of hiking. I must admit that I was one of the scoffers who rolled my eyes at things like cutting a toothbrush in half to save weight, however my tune has begun to change as I have taken a closer look at the ultralight idea. Why do we carry more weight than we have to? And is it totally necessary to cook a hot meal while camping or is the trade off of eight or nine less pounds in your pack worth it to simply eat granola bars on your next outing. These are the ideas that I began to explore and I surprised myself with the conclusions that I came to. There is an overwhelming amount of research that, notsurprisingly, points to the idea that the less weight that we load ourselves down with, the fewer injuries we will sustain, as well as the faster and farther we will be able to go. So without compromising an undue amount of comfort, enjoyment and safety, the next time you set out on the trail maybe try shaving your weight down and taking the bare minimum in equipment and clothing; you never know, you might just like it. Perhaps you too will call yourself an ultra-lighter before the summer is finished. Sam Waddington is the owner of Mt. Waddington’s Outdoors: equipping you for rock, water, snow, sand, wind and anything else the outdoors can throw at you!

Clerical error hands Huskers a win Size Si doesn ddoesn’t’t matter If you can’t beat ‘em on the field, beat ‘em in the boardroom? That’s not a sentiment Valley Husker head coach Tyson St. James would subscribe to, but it worked in his favour this week. The BC Football Conference overturned his team’s week one result, giving the Huskers an unexpected win over the Okanagan Sun. On the field, the Sun smacked the Huskers 65-10 July 27 at the Apple
Bowl in Kelowna. The Huskers are now being credited with a 1-0 win. The reason? The Sun apparently registered and dressed an inelligible player. Curtis Kelly suited up that day. The Ontario native played for the Hamilton Hurricanes of the Ontario Football Conference in 2012, and was never granted his requested release. Therefore, he was
still ‘property’ of the Hurricanes. According to rule 4.2 (b), “Should the player be ruled ineligible due to a major breech of eligibility rules (overage, suspension, unregistered and/ or other similar situation) the offending team shall be subject to a fine not to exceed $3,000 and forfeit game/s in which the ineligible player is on their roster.” The Sun do have the option of appealing the
decision. In the meantime, the Huskers suddenly find themselves ‘undefeated’ at 2-0-1, good for second place in the six team circuit. The Sun slip to 2-1 and third place. “It was a decision not taken lightly by the BCFC,” said league president Gord Johnson. “We are working with the CJFL on ways to prevent such situations in the future.” See bcjuniorfootball.ca
Research on the physiology of the golf swing has helped instructors greatly in recent years, writes Jennifer Greggain The game of golf is full of counter-intuitive notions. One of these is to achieve more distance by over-swinging in the back stroke One school of thought, that was taught decades ago, defined the perfect backswing as parallel to the ground at the top of the swing. However, most players are not able to properly achieve this position, and will w ill therefore make compensations that are inefficient. These T hese compensations will cause loss of distance and accuracy. Research on the physiology of the golf swing has helped instructors greatly in recent years. Therefore, the size of a golfer’s backswing should be defined by how much rotation they are able to make. This T his position is different for every player, based on their physical make up. When a player is not able to reach a ‘parallel’ position at the top of their swing I often see some inefficient compensations. One example of this is a loss of extension in the back swing. This creates a false illusion of rotation. If a player reaches their maximum rotation, then continues to try to bring the club back farther, a player will often break down their extension in the back swing. The shoulders stop rotating; the arms break down creating a swing that tricks the golfer into believing it will be more powerful. In reality they are causing inefficiency.
Unbeaten Huskers tackle struggling Raiders If ever there is a good time to play the Vancouver Island Raiders, this would seem to be it for Chilliwack’s Valley Huskers. The Huskers (2-0-1) visit Nanaimo on Saturday to take on an uncharacteristically struggling Raider squad. VI sits at 1-2 three weeks into the BC Football Conference season. They beat the Westshore Rebels 35-10 in week one. Since then, they’ve lost to the Okanagan Sun (173) and Langley Rams (3628). They’re a cranky bunch, but wideout Whitman Tomusiak saw good things against the Rams, the defending Cullen Cup champions. “I think a lot of people maybe thought we were going to come out and
get crushed and we certainly didn’t,” he told the Nanaimo News Bulletin. “Everyone’s got to relax. I know there are huge expectations for this team just off its history. But this is the youngest team we’ve ever had. We’ve just got to let the season go on, let these guys learn a bit.” Huskers head coach Tyson St. James has seen some good and bad from his team through three weeks. They got crushed by a very good Sun team in week one. They’re coming off back-to-back games against the Kamloops Broncos, a 29-29 tie at home and a 33-30 win on the road. The win was a bit ugly. For the second straight week the Huskers let the Broncos overcome a fourth quarter deficit,
before finally sealing the deal. “Overall, I thought we did well. We took the game in hand in the first half, and in the second half we let it slip through our fingers again,” St. James said. “We have to fix that, but I know the real team is the one that pulled out the win in the end.” Penalties didn’t help the cause for either side. Chilliwack committed an astounding 25 fouls for 247 yards. Kamloops was nearly as giving, with 24 fouls for 220 yards. “I played for 20 years, including a few in the CFL, and I don’t remember seeing anything like that,” St. James said about the flagfest. “At the same time, it’s a testament to our team that we won in those circumstances.”
The Husker offence, stats wise, had a poor game, generating just 222 net yards. But, St. James thought his team fixed one problem that had dogged them through the first two weeks. “One of our goals going in was to capitalize in the red zone, and we did that,” he said. “I tell the players not to look at the stats, and I’ll give up some numbers in exchange for touchdowns.” Still, he knows his team will have to move the ball far more efficiently against the Raiders. “They are still a very good team and it’ll take everything we’ve got,” he said. “They’ve been one of the top teams over the last decade, and this is a big challenge to see what we’ve got.”
Chilliwack’s Mitchell Thiessen took his first bantam boys division title at the most recent Maple Leaf Junior Golf Tour stop. Thiessen edged Langley’s Willis Lee with a birdie on the second playoff at the Hazelmere Golf and Tennis Club in Surrey. The 14-year-old was fourth after one round, trailing Lee by three strokes after firing a six-over-par 78 on the 6,081 yard course. But he caught fire in the second round. While Lee shot a two-over-par 74, Thiessen carded a one-under par 71 that included birdies on the second, eighth and ninth holes. Thiessen also walked away with the Closest to the Pin and the Comeback awards. The last multi-day MJT event in BC is the Prodigy Series at Predator Ridge Golf Resort, Aug 26-27.
Another example of this is when players lose theirr posture in their backswing by changing their spine angle and ‘stand up’ in the backswing. This is commonly called ‘lifting your head’ in the swing. Again, this creates the illusion of more powerr because the golf swing feels bigger and more powerful. In actuality, this golfer is creating an inefficient golff swing delivering inconsistentt ball-striking. Therefore, the most efficient, and powerful backswing for every player should be defined when rotation off the shoulders is achieved. Your hands should be as far away from your body as possible, allowing for maximum extension. Your arms and wrists should be set to 90 degrees. If you therefore need to shorten your backswing to achieve these positions, that is just fine. You will not lose distance by shortening your backswing. The next time you are on the range practicing yourr swing, double check thatt you are maintaining efficient, powerful positions in yourr backswing.

Sports
Cheam Vaulters excel at nationals Chilliwack’s Cheam Vaulters won several titles at the Canadian Equestrian Vaulting Championship, held in Ponoka, Alberta. Clubs from BC, Alberta and Saskatchewan competed, with titles awarded for national, western Canadian and prairie provincial champions. BC’s provincial champions will be selected at a separate event in September. Cheam head coach, Alisa Schmidt-Anema placed second in the high division, winning the reserve national championship award.
She had help from her horse, a Percheron mare named Rose, and her lunger, Josh Anema. At the Western Canadian championship level, Schmidt-Anema and teammate Darla Ricka won the regional award for their pas de deux (pairs) performance. Their horse was a Percheron cross gelding named Cetoma, and Ali McKitrick did the lunging. A Western Canada award was also presented to a composite team of athletes from BC clubs, including several members of the
Cheam vaulters. Ricka, Bartley Dyck, Hannah Campbell and Katie Pavicic represented the local club. Two Chilliwack men were named Western Canadian men’s champions, with Haigen Pavan and Dyck placing 1-2 in that division. Several Cheam Vaulters competed in open classes. All athletes perform in two separate classes – compulsory exercises and a freestyle routine. The average of these two classes determines their final overall placing. The youngest Cheam
vaulter, Jake Campbell, performed in the ‘FUNdamentals’ demonstration class. In the competitive walk class for U-10 vaulters, Sam Kennedy was second in freestyle and third overall. Two Cheam Vaulters competed in beginning canter for the first time. Pavicic placed fifth, with Campbell close behind in sixth. At the advanced canter level, Cassie Sponchia placed fourth overall and Abigale Wynberg was fifth. Cheam’s Team Radiance performed their spectacular free-
style routine as a demonstration. Vaulters were McKitrick, Sponchia, Schmit-Anema, Wynberg, Pavan, Ricka and Kennedy. The Cheam Vaulters is one of Canada’s oldest and largest vaulting clubs. This month it moves to a new permanent home in Greendale which will allow for expansion of its program. Several new classes are planned for recreational and competitive vaulters of all ages (including adults). Email equestrianvaulting@yahoo.ca for more info.
BCHL sends five referees to school Hockey players haven’t been the only ones training for the BCHL season to come. Budding referees and linesmen are also taking part in intense physical and mental training to make sure they’re ready for the opening
puck drop. This year, the BCHL board of governors created scholarship opportunities for select young officials in B.C. to attend two of the best summer officiating camps there are. The West Coast Prep Referee Camp in Port Alberni and the Steve Kozari School of Officiating in Penticton offer elite training for young officials looking to move up the ranks. The five recipients of the BCHL scholarships
were Hasret Sidhu, Jordan Wood, Matt Caillet, Tyler Goudal, and Jonah Lachapelle. “Just like players in our league prepare in the off-season, our officials are expected to focus on their training and come into the season in great condition,” said BCHL director of officiating Derek Adams. “We place a high degree of accountability on our guys to work hard in the gym over the summer to ensure they come into
the season in great shape.” The West Coast and Kozari camps provide young officials with the technical and physical tools to run a game the right way and open doors to increasingly advanced levels of hockey. “These particular schools are excellent training grounds for young officials because they offer them the ability to learn the trade by officiating games in front of NHL officials
like Brad Lazarowich, Steve Kozari and Kyle Ryman,” Adams noted. “Also as important, they provide these young officials the opportunity to be scouted and hired by the BCHL. The camps have an excellent off-ice training component that delivers instruction on such things as rules, game management, positioning, and on-ice presence, which are all very important parts of being an on-ice official in junior hockey.”
Former Chilliwack Spartan swimmer Brent Hayden will be inducted into the BC Sports Hall of Fame Sept. 19. Hayden will attend the Banquet of Champions in the West Building of the Vancouver Convention Centre. See bcsportshalloffame.com for more info.

Good Sport of the week!
Wedel takes on world The Progress Chilliwack’s Shannon Wedel enjoyed the experience of a lifetime, traveling to Torino, Italy Aug. 2-11 for the World Masters Games. The 35-year-old Sardis secondary school grad competed in women’s fastpitch softball, winning silver as part of the Vancouver Meralomas. “It was an awesome experience, with parades in the streets and the citizens cheering us on,” she said. “It was my first Italian experience, and they all had signs in their store windows welcoming us. There were 20,000-25,000 athletes there.” Wedel used to play fastpitch in Vancouver, and the Meralomas asked her to join their World Masters entry in January. In Italy, they found themselves playing in a fiveteam competitive junior women’s division with the Alberta Wild, Redcliffe Rockets (Australia), Southerns Masters 35 (Australia) and Lentini’s Softball (Italy). “We went unbeaten in round-robin play, with eight wins and a tie (2-2 versus the
Southerns),” Wedel said. “We beat Lentini’s twice in roundrobin, but they beat us 11-10 in the final. So it was a little bittersweet.” Wedel and her teammates explored the city and watched other events. “The oldest competitor was a 94-year-old women in swimming, and we heard the 1972 Russian basketball team was there as well,” Wedel said. “We had free transit, so we could go anywhere. We saw a lot of the Olympic buildings they made for the 2006 Winter Olympics, and we got into all the museums for free.” The experience was so wonderful that Wedel is already scheming for four years from now, when the WMG will be held in Auckland, New Zealand. “There’s a lot of women I played fastpitch with in Chilliwack when I was growing up,” she said. “And they’re all getting into that 35+ age level now. So we’re already trying to figure out whether we’ve got enough to send a Chilliwack team to the next one.” Check torino2013wmg.org for more info.
