Hundreds of illegal grow ops predicted Mayor says municipalities will be dealing with fallout from changes to medical marijuana licensing Carol Aun MISSION RECORD

Mayor Ted Adlem believes there will be hundreds of illegal marijuana grow operations in Mission next year when the federal government phases out individual medical pot licences. “It’s our biggest issue,” said Adlem, as he prepares for the week-long Union of B.C. Municipalities convention from Sept. 16-20 where he will meet with his counterparts and provincial government representatives. Earlier this year, Ottawa announced plans to eliminate home licences, and instead have medical pot grown and distributed by

highly regulated, secure commercial operators. The plan is expected to be launched in April 2014. “As I see it, the federal government’s idea of transition is that all these nice people currently with licences are going to quit and transition into the new system where you’ll have it mailed to you,” said Adlem. “I don’t think that will happen.” Municipalities will be left with the responsibility to clean it up, Adlem predicted, noting the addresses of current licensed growers are confidential and only the feds have that information. “They won’t provide the information to municipal-

“We shouldn’t have to pay for changing the system.” Adlem will be meeting with B.C.’s minister of justice and attorney general Suzanne Anton to discuss the issue.

Mission RCMP Insp. Richard Konarski agrees there will be a lot of uncertainty, and notes it’s a challenge every community in Canada will face. Other issues Adlem and Mission councillors will be addressing with provincial representatives are upgrading Florence Lake Service Road on the west side of Stave Lake, and turning N. Railway Avenue into the official provincial highway through Mission, while handing First Avenue back to the district. The province has already committed $5 million towards road improvements on the west side of Stave Lake, but Mission hasn’t re-

ceived any funding yet. It needs to get on the budget radar soon, so the Tim Horton Children’s Foundation can open its camp at the former Boulder Bay youth correction camp in 2017, said Adlem. The gravel road is in good shape up to the Zajac Ranch, but the 12 kilometres of road north of that needs to be improved. Taking highway traffic off First Avenue is critical to Mission’s downtown revitalization plan as it would eliminate the bottleneck at First Avenue and Murray Street and save commuters time.

Jepsen’s hacker apologizes Vikki Hopes and Monique Tamminga BLACK PRESS

The father of the man who hacked into Mission singer Carly Rae Jepsen’s e-mail and social media accounts is standing behind his son. Christopher David Long, 25, was in Abbotsford provincial court last Friday for a sentencing hearing. “We all make mistakes and I know that Chris is extremely regretful for what has occurred,” said Long’s father Bob Long, who is a long-time Langley Township councillor. “He gave a sincere apology in the courtroom and his family are committed to love him, stand by him and support him as he grows through this difficult time in his life.” Long pleaded guilty in May of this year to possession of stolen property and mischief to data.

Crown counsel Rob Macgowan is recommending a four-month conditional sentence (house arrest) followed by one year probation. Defence lawyer Martin Finch asked Judge Jill Rounthwaite to consider a conditional discharge.

“It was scary. It was really scary,” said Jordi Ashworth of the incidents that occurred in early 2012. At the time of the offences, Jepsen and Ashworth were living together in Vancouver. Ashworth, who often

It was scary. It was really scary. JORDI ASHWORTH Rounthwaite has reserved her decision until Friday, Sept. 13. Jepsen’s former boyfriend, who was at the sentencing hearing, said he and the pop superstar lived in fear when they discovered that someone had hacked her email and social media accounts and gained access to materials that included two “highly personal” photos.

monitored Jepsen’s social media and email accounts at her request, discovered that some of the passwords had been changed in early March 2012. Vulgar postings were made on Jepsen’s Facebook and Instagram accounts. On March 22, Jepsen, who was on tour, discovered she could no longer make or receive calls on her cellphone, and she

received a series of calls from a blocked number. The worried couple reported the issues to the Vancouver Police Department, which launched a four-month investigation. This included Ashworth communicating via email with the then-unknown hacker. In one exchange, the hacker wrote, “Stop trying to take this account back. I am extremely capable of doing many things so leave it at that.” Police identified a suspect in July after fake online images and a phony sex tape were released online. Officers were able to trace the sender’s IP address to Long’s residence in Abbotsford. He then confessed to police. It was determined that Long registered an email account that had previously been used by Jepsen but was inactive.

Christopher Long, accompanied by his lawyers, conceals his face from media as he VIKKI HOPES PHOTO leaves Abbotsford provincial court on Friday. He then used that account to gain access to her current email and password, which led to him accessing the passwords to her social media sites, including Twitter, Facebook and Instagram. Long downloaded material from Jepsen’s email account that included her recording contract, tour schedule, two song recordings

and several photos, including two between her and Ashworth that were of a “sensitive and highly personal nature,” according to Macgowan. Long, using a newly created email account and an alias, then sent the two photos to TMZ – a celebrity gossip website and television series – suggesting possibly selling them. He also contacted a

phone company to have Jepsen’s cellphone number changed. Macgowan said Jepsen and Ashworth lived in fear because they did not know whether the hacker intended to harm them or to damage Jepsen’s career. “(The) sense of violation and invasion of privacy … cannot be understated,” Macgowan said.

Fatal ATV crash Complaint by former district employee

A 30-year-old Mission man was killed in an ATV accident on Sunday, six kilometres east of the Portia exit on Highway 5. Hope RCMP received a 911 call at about 3:30 p.m. regarding an ATV driver going over an 80-foot embankment and rolling over. The man’s 29-year-old brother was a passenger on the ATV, but managed to jump off prior to the accident. Hope Search and Rescue attended the scene to help recover the body of the deceased. The B.C. Coroner’s Office was also in attendance. The incident is currently under investigation by Hope RCMP, with assistance from the Lower Mainland District Integrated Collision Analysis and Reconstruction Service. The name of the deceased man will not be released until next of kin have been notified.

dismissed by Human Rights Tribunal Carol Aun MISSION RECORD

The Human Rights Tribunal (HRT) has dismissed a case involving a former District of Mission employee who alleged he was terminated because of a mental disability.

ed confidential, unauthorized emails and made unauthorized purchases for personal use. Along with its response, the district also filed an application to the HRT to dismiss the complaint, to which Amato did not respond. Amato launched a grievance with the district in June 2012, alleging inappropriate actions and discriminatory comments by his supervisor. Gipps and Bekkering began a confidential investigation process, but before it was completed, Amato sent an email on Aug. 5, 2012 to all district employees about his complaint, along with addition-

In his written judgment, tribunal chair Bernd Walter noted that Amato took a medical leave of absence from April 17 to May 3, 2012 and from Aug. 16, 2012 until Oct. 15, without advising the respondents of any physical or mental disability. According to the sworn affidavits by Gipps and Bekkering, Amato admitted to making unauthorized purchases, and didn’t show up to meet with

Amato was served a termination letter on Oct. 12, 2012. “When the respondents attempted to meet with Mr. Amato to discuss his conduct and return to work, he failed to attend and sought to extend his absence without medical justification,” wrote Walter. In a decision released Aug. 26, Walter dismissed the complaint, concluding that Amato’s complaint “has no reasonable prospect of success.”

Focus on multi-housing development A traffic light is not needed at that intersection, according to a traffic engineer’s report which looked at the traffic patterns, however, the road will be widened and configured to accommodate a light in the future.

Carol Aun MISSION RECORD

More housing options will be available in Mission as Focus Architecture Inc builds 70 new housing units on the Cedar Valley Connector (CVC). The new 8.06-acre development at 32588 and 32688 Cedar Valley Connector would consist of numerous types of housing on fee simple lots including: compact single family, multi-family row house with coach houses or bonus room accessed from a lane, multi-family two-storey row houses with attached garages accessed from the street, and multi-family three-storey row houses with attached garages. A public hearing last week identified traffic flow on the connector as the main concern. The subject property is just south of Briskham Street and calls for a left turn lane from CVC into the development and a left turn merging lane coming out. The pedestrian-controlled street light currently at Briskham would be relocated to line up with the road going into the development.

Traffic is horrific. People don’t slow down DANNY PLECAS “Traffic is horrific,” said former councillor Danny Plecas, referring to the steep slope and the curve in the road. “People don’t slow down.” Plecas believes the developer should install a traffic light. Kenny Braich, whose family lost the two pieces of land in a foreclosure, also owns land adjacent to the property on the south side. He questioned how the district would provide access to his property when he decides to develop. His family

Survey results pending 600 residents participated in budget exercise Carol Aun MISSION RECORD

Mission council will soon have another tool to use when they craft next year’s municipal budget. The month-long It’s Your Budget survey, put together by the district to engage the community in the process, has now closed and the feedback is being analyzed. It’s too soon to tell what the top priorities are, said Jennifer Kinneman, Mission’s manager of civic engagement, who plans to have the results ready for council at the Sept. 25 meeting. More than 600 residents participated in the survey, which ran the month of August. “I’m not sure what we were expecting,” said Kinneman, noting this is the first time the district has engaged the public through a budget survey. “Given this was our first attempt, we had nothing to compare it to.” Some people who filled out the survey were very thoughtful in their responses and

council can read all the comments in an upcoming staff report, Kinneman added. Council has set a zero per cent tax increase for 2014, and wanted to hear from the public about which services and programs should be considered a priority. Last year the district only heard from 29 people about the budget. If you’ve missed the survey, there is still an opportunity for you to let council know your thoughts at the official public consultation meeting in November. “They can still provide written comment or come out to the meeting,” said Kinneman. “There are plenty of ways to get involved still.” Another way is to visit the Ask the Taxman section of the It’s Your Business page at mission.ca. Residents can pose questions about the budget or budget process and someone from the finance department will respond.

lots are currently accessed on Fraser Crescent. He told council under the same rules today, he could put 900 homes on his property, and suggested a municipal road be built to connect the properties. District staff pointed out the two properties proposed for development can only be accessed on the CVC, and because of the grades on the land, it would not be possible to build a municipal road to the top of the connector from Fraser. While Braich’s suggestion of another 900 homes in the area caught some councillors’ attention, Mayor Ted Adlem said the district will not build 900 units at once. “It won’t happen in my lifetime and it won’t happen in yours.” Adlem, who lives in a 69-unit housing complex, convinced most of the councillors that traffic from the proposed developed would not be an issue. “There’s no such thing as traffic with 70 units,” he said, noting he has never had a problem coming out of his complex. Councillors Nelson Tilbury and Jeff Jewell voted against third reading, while Coun. Larry Nundal was absent.

Disc golf course proposed Carol Aun MISSION RECORD

Centennial park could soon be home to Mission’s first disc golf course. Mission residents Mark Klassen, Gregory Beck, and Brad Henderson, president of the Fraser Valley Disc Golf Club, spoke to council about building a course for one of North America’s fastest growing sports. There are more than 30,000 courses in North America, with 50 in B.C., most of which were installed by municipalities as a recreational facility, explained Klassen. Henderson has helped build numerous courses and organized tournaments. The closest course to Mission, he says, is on Thornhill in Maple Ridge. Disc golf is similar to golf, but with modified

Revisiting Riverview Hospital

QUESTION OF THE WEEK Did you take part in the district’s budget survey?

A push to re-open Riverview Hospital will be made at the Union of B.C. Municipalities convention taking place in Vancouver Sept. 16 to 20. Maple Ridge council has indicated it will bring forward a resolution to re-open the psychiatric hospital, saying that closing it in the early 1990s – opting instead to help those with severe mental illness in their own communities – has resulted in “unacceptably poor outcomes for the most needy citizens.” It also has resulted in severe social and financial burdens on local governments. In the 1990s, the provincial government chose to switch gears on how to care for people with severe mental illness. Those living at Riverview were going to live within their own communities and be supported through housing and other social services. Community mental health facilities were built in several communities for long-term stays. The problem is there are far too few beds to meet the demand. An “institution” to house the mentally ill conjures up visions of One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest and the painfully outdated Riverview model was, rightfully, phased out. But the reality is that when it closed many people were pushed out without proper support. Far too many who were living at Riverview now find themselves on the Downtown Eastside. Others moved back to their hometowns, where many have ended up homeless, often self-medicating with illegal drugs. Police resources are over-burdened dealing with the severely mentally ill. Too many jail cells are housing the mentally ill. The system is overwhelmed and in the end it is our entire society which suffers. - Langley Times

Curing a community cash crunch Tom Fletcher

B.C. Views Local politicians from across B.C. are in Vancouver Sept. 16 to 20 to take part in the annual Union of B.C. Municipalities convention. There will be trivia reported as news, such as the cost of hotels. Suggestions to license mobility scooters or lower speed limits to 40 km/h, dreamed up in Vancouver Island retirement locales, will be rejected by delegates from the rest of the province. Serious discussion will revolve around a report by a UBCM executive committee to reshape the financial relationship between the province and local governments. If this proposal gets the support it deserves, Premier Christy Clark’s government will be asked to undo a couple of decades of political meddling in that relationship. One problem for local governments is that they depend on property tax, a stable source of revenue but one that has no re-

lationship to the property owner’s ability to pay. It tends to load costs onto lower-income groups such as seniors and renters. Economic growth results mainly in increased corporate and personal income tax revenues as well as sales taxes, which aren’t shared with local governments. One key proposal is to return to a system of revenue sharing grants introduced by the Social Credit government in the 1980s. They were funded by one point each from personal and corporate income tax and six per cent of sales, fuel and resource tax revenues, thus increasing in years when provincial revenues were strong. The UBCM proposal is to put a share of provincial revenues into an infrastructure bank, to be distributed by the organization on a more stable basis. Saanich Mayor Frank Leonard, one of the authors of the report, uses a basketball analogy to describe the current system of federal-provincial grants for road and bridge projects. It’s a “jump ball,” where communities have to apply to a fund when it’s offered and then see who gets it. Even if a community wins the jump ball, they may find themselves with costs inflated by a hot construction market and an arbitrary deadline to get the job done. Then there are new regulations imposed

by senior governments. The most dramatic example these days is a 2020 federal deadline for Greater Victoria to construct landbased sewage treatment. Even with federal and provincial cost sharing, this project is

The UBCM proposal is to put a share of provincial revenues into an infrastructure bank going to land heavily on property tax bills, including those of pensioners and poor renters who will have it passed on to them. Leonard points to another arbitrary system, provincial facilities that pay grants in lieu of property taxes. Saanich is home to the University of Victoria, a community of 25,000 people that needs water and sewer service, as well as police and fire protection. Saanich gets an annual

Cariboo Regional District chair Al Richmond, co-chair of the UBCM committee, is concerned about new water and flood protection legislation the province is preparing to impose. His district and others like it have thousands of kilometres of riverfront, with relatively few property owners. Interior communities also want BC Hydro to pay something for power lines, as is now being done with some aboriginal territories. Local politicians will be expecting a sympathetic ear from the new version of the B.C. Liberal government. Former Quesnel councillor Coralee Oakes is the new community, sport and cultural development minister, with direct responsibility for local government issues.

Traffic on Cedar Connector must be slowed Editor, The Record: Is it going to take someone getting killed before something is done to slow down the traffic on the Cedar Connector? Probably. And doing something after the fact isnâ€™t good enough for me or for anyone who has travelled that section of road and lived to tell the tale.

In the past two weeks there have been serious accidents on the Connector, one of which involved a good friend of mine, which only makes me all the more angry at the idiots who think that that section of road is their own personal raceway. Sure, the traffic slows down when the police are there with their

radar equipment but obviously they canâ€™t be there every day. So it should be a no-brainer that rumble strips are placed at the intersection between the two malls. And not just a few, either. Place them up and down that strip of road so no one gets a head of steam up, as it is way too easy to let gravity, distracted drivers,

and self-centered jerks reach lift-off speeds. If the bike riders donâ€™t like those strips then there are plenty of other hills that they can use. For now itâ€™s just me saying please do something about that stretch of road before itâ€™s one of your friends getting hurt. Robert T. Rock Mission

Animal control should be in all areas Editor, The Record: Re: Dog attack victim wants animal control boundaries expanded, Aug. 29 edition. This article shocked me. How could there be no animal control in certain areas? And why canâ€™t they confirm that

the dog who attacked Mr. Hare and his dogs, has been dealt with? It makes me think that nothing has happened. I am appalled. I know this area. My children sometimes walk their grandparentsâ€™ dogs there. What if it was

my boys who were attacked? Nothing would be done? I hope that the people in this community can work together to expand these boundaries and that they are careful walking their dogs. Can you imagine

the repercussions it will have if the community were to hear about this dog attacking again, knowing that this recent attack was very public, and that another attack could have been prevented? Erica Frick

The soapbox derby will take place this weekend on Stave Lake Street.

FILE PHOTO

Soapbox derby will run this Saturday Stave Lake Street will be closed all day for the annual event Carol Aun MISSION RECORD

Racers will be zooming down Stave Lake Street this Saturday as the Mission Soapbox Derby returns. The event was originally scheduled for August, but wet roads forced organizers to cancel and reschedule it for Sept. 14. Another rain delay would cancel this year’s event. So far there are 55 registered cars, but Mis-

sion and District Soapbox Derby Association president Remco Bergman suspects there will be a few more racers who will want to sign up at the last minute. We’re prepared for that, he said, noting there is room. “If you want to register still, you have to come down at 7 a.m.,” he stressed. Registered racers are expected to be at the race site at 7:30 a.m. to check in

and prepare for the event. Stave Lake Street will be closed between Seventh and Best Avenues from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. Opening ceremonies will begin at 9 a.m. and the first cars will roll down the hill at around 9:15 a.m. Community policing volunteers will be out with their radar guns to check how fast the cars are going. About 30 races will be completed before the

group breaks for lunch at noon. The second half of the competition will resume at 12:30 p.m. and the awards ceremony happens at 4 p.m. There will also be a pudding-eating contest, a hot dog-eating contest, as well as a martial arts demonstration, said Bergman. For more information about the event or road closures, visit missionsoapbox.com.

Patient Testimonial

Millions of Canadians will be remembering Terry Fox this month as they participate in the annual run to raise funds and awareness for cancer research. Locally, the run will take place Sunday, Sept. 15 at Fraser River Heritage Park. Mission run organizer Craig Grant says the new location will be safer for participants and will not disrupt

traffic. In addition to walking and running, the path is also suitable for bicycles, wheelchairs and strollers. Dogs on leashes are can also join in. Runners can choose from a 5 km trek (one loop) around the park or 10 km (two loops). Grant, who has been organizing the event for the past six years with the Rotary Club, says he continues to enjoy the role because it’s for a good cause.

Four cases of measles confirmed, more suspected in Fraser Health Jeff Nagel BLACK PRESS

A measles outbreak in the Fraser Health region has prompted a broader warning to residents and health professionals to be on the lookout for the disease. Public health officials say four confirmed cases of measles have turned up in Burnaby, Surrey, Abbotsford and Chilliwack and several more patients have symptoms consistent with measles. Fraser Health is investigating to see if the cases are linked. So far there’s no known source of exposure to measles – most infections are normally from travel to another country. “These people haven’t travelled so we really have no idea where they picked it up from,” said medical health officer Dr. Michelle Murti, adding the new cases are unrelated to each other. All the recent cases were either unimmunized, incompletely immunized, or didn’t know their immunization status, she said. Anyone born after 1956 should have two doses of measles-containing vaccine, although many have had just one or none at all. The new cases in Burnaby and Surrey each had one vaccination, which Murti said underscores the case for getting two doses. Advice and vaccinations are being offered to anyone who may have been in contact with those infected, and anyone who is unsure about their measles immunization can get the vaccine for free from doctors, clinics and some pharmacies.

There were three cases on Bowen Island or Whistler in June. And in August Fraser Health warned that a measles-infected visitor to Abbotsford Regional Hospital exposed about 60 women and newborns in a post-natal unit. The disease is most serious for infants, who die at a rate of one for every 3,000 infections in developed countries. It’s much worse in the third world, which accounts for most of the 150,000 annual measles deaths worldwide.

Corrosion is the #1 cause of brake component failure. Corrosion can pit the metal bores of the master cylinder, and ABS components. Just like engine oil, coolant and transmission fluid, brake fluid “wears” over time. Not only does brake fluid wear, but the internal brake components also wear, producing “sludge”. This leaves the brake system vulnerable to corrosion and compromise.

A ban on anonymous contributions in municipal elections is among the reforms the provincial government is pledging to have in place the next time local voters go to the polls to elect councils in November of 2014. Details on the changes are to be spelled out in a white paper next month. But Community, Sport and Cultural Development Minister Coralee Oakes said additional changes will also require disclosure and registration of third-party advertisers in local government elections. Sponsorship information will also be mandatory on all election advertising, and campaign finance disclosures will have to be filed within 90 days, instead of 120 days. Limits on campaign spending for candidates, organizations and third-party advertisers are also coming, but they will be held back for implementation for the 2017 elections in order to allow more time for consultations. The province is also

expected to push municipal campaigns up one month, to run in the third week of October starting in 2017. Oakes said the changes will improve transparency and accountability, calling them the most significant modernization of local election legislation in nearly two decades. The changes will apply to elections for municipalities, regional districts, park boards, the Islands Trust and boards of education. Union of B.C. Municipalities president Mary Sjostrom said she’s pleased with the commitment and said the government’s phased approach should ensure the changes work well for the full range of B.C. communities. NDP local government critic Selina Robinson was critical of the delay to impose a campaign spending cap and said she’s not sure why the province needs more time and a white paper to act. “What have they been doing?” she asked, adding six different ministers have had a combined six years to deliver reforms sought by UBCM.

A driving force for change NEW FLIGHTS! Local band Faber Drive raises $5,000 for orphanage in Thailand Carol Aun MISSION RECORD

Dave Faber and his band Faber Drive might have touched the hearts of his family and friends last week at a private concert, but his music affected the souls of nearly 30 children at an orphanage in Thailand. “It was mostly my wife’s idea,” said Faber, who held the concert at a family home in rural Mission. “She’s the one who organized and set up the whole thing. I helped out as best I could.” As Faber Drive rocked the benefit concert, their 200 supporters opened up their wallets and the group raised more than $5,000 for the Baan Burk Faa Orphanage. “It was for a good cause,” said Faber, who used the opportunity to teach his three children, Isaiah, Faith, and Patience about helping other people in need.

Dave Faber, frontman for local band, Faber Drive, recently played a fundraiser concert in Mission. BOB FRIESEN PHOTO His children also took the stage, performing in a band called Dutch Blitz, and 14-yearold Izzi belted out his first single, I’m A Geek, which was recently released and available on iTunes.

wrote together called Chocolate Milk. This is the second benefit concert hosted by Faber Drive. The first took place two years ago to help purchase a water well in Africa. Faber learned about the orphanage through a friend, and members

from the church to which they belong also spoke about going to Thailand to help. The orphanage is run by a woman and her husband and your heart breaks to hear about something like that, said Faber. He told The Record his wife, Ricarda, has plans to organize a similar concert in another two years, but isn’t sure if it would get any larger or if it would be open to his other fans. Faber Drive fans who want to see the band live might not have to wait too long. The band recently released Too Little Too Late, featuring Simple Plan’s Pierre Bouvier, from their newest album Lost in Paradise and will be shooting a video soon. Faber Drive’s latest work is available on iTunes. For more information about the band, visit faberdrive.com.

drivers are four times likelier to crash when talking on a hand-held phone while driving and 23 times more likely to be in a crash if texting. Enforcement by officers handing out $167 fines will be stepped up throughout September, according to police. And officials kicked off the campaign Thursday using a simulator to show the effect of distractions on a driver. â€œDriving is a complex task that requires your full attention,â€? ICBC interim president Mark Blucher said. â€œWhen youâ€™re distracted behind the wheel your reaction time is significantly reduced. Distracted driving is a common cause of rear-end crashes and injuries â€” there is no safe following distance when your mind is not on the road.â€? A 2012 survey for ICBC found B.C. motorists consider texting while driving to be just as risky as drinking and driving, yet 40 per cent of those who own cellphones admit theyâ€™ve used a hand-held phone while driving. ICBC says its statistics count use of communications or video equipment among the sources of driver distraction, along with driver inattention and other sources of internal or external distraction.

Val Gervais won a triple crown at the Mission Tennis Club’s Year End Tournament over the Labour Day weekend. Gervais and her partner, Mark Gervais, defended their mixed doubles title Saturday by defeating Brandon Wood and Tanis Sanford, 6-0, 6-1. Gervais, a perennial favourite, teamed up with Jane Thorup to take the women’s doubles title the next day by beating Tanis Sanford and Florence Colquhuon, 6-1, 6-0. Gervais also claimed the women’s title in a marathon with long rallies against a determined Sanford, who eventually fell 6-2, 6-2. Winning all three events is a feat that does not happen often, said Mark Gervais, tennis club organizer. The team of Wood and Ian Mackenzie were down early in the men’s doubles final, but managed to come back strong to win 6-3, 6-4. Wood retained his men’s singles title after his opponent, Ken Herar, had to retire from the match after only completing two games. The tennis club thanks all the local businesses and the district’s parks and recreation department for supporting the tournament, said Gervais. The Mission Tennis Club will continue to play throughout the early fall. For more information call Mark at 604-826-2586.

Act of sportsmanship nets Fraser Valley team Musial Award Gary Ahuja BLACK PRESS

It was the right thing to do. That is all that was going through the minds of Shannon Chick, Kristan Rodrigues and Shae Domitruk. This was back in late July, during a playoff game in the provincial championships be-

tween the Fraser Valley Fusion 97 fastpitch team and the Surrey Storm 97 at Victoria’s Helmcken Park. Mission’s Julia Harris plays on the regional team. The Storm’s Raelyn Radovich had just belted a three-run home run over the centre-field fence, which tied the game. But while she was

rounding first base, Radovich suffered a knee injury. She limped her way around second base and then third, but the pain became too much to bear and she collapsed. Since she had rounded third base and was between third and home, she could not stop and call for a pinch runner. And if

a teammate or coach was to help her, she would be called out. That was when the trio sprung into action. Chick, Rodrigues and Domitruk, hoisted the fallen Radovich up and carried her to home plate so she could tag the base for the tying run. “If one of our girls happened (to get hurt)

This week we welcome the sponsorship of the Mission City Record. The Record joins the dozens of Communities in Bloom sponsors that are the key to our continuing efforts to make Mission even more livable and beautiful. It has been a beautiful summer, hasn’t it! Some of us have had the opportunity to travel—near and far (I will never forget Fogo Island, Newfoundland/Labrador)! Others have focussed on gardening, volunteering or hosting family visits. Since moving to Edwards Estates, I have appreciated glimpses of so many family groups enjoying one another’s company this summer—either strolling on Seventh Avenue, heading to the Leisure Centre, or arriving at our condo complex to visit granny, grandpa or other relatives. Now autumn is near. We have summer memories, but there is a new bustle about: parents, students and teachers settle into new routines while gardeners move from planting to harvesting or tidying up shrubs and garden beds.

In the years before beginning my teaching career in Gladstone, Manitoba, I dreaded autumn. My attitude changed during my weekend trips to and from Gladstone and Brandon. Why had I taken so long to appreciate the brilliant autumn colours and aroma of smoldering piles of garden leaves?! The Communities in Bloom volunteers are not quite ready for autumn. Next week, the 2013 Beautify Mission program concludes with streetscape evaluations. You are invited to be sure that YOUR streetscape, whether a business, non-profit organization site or residence, is tidy and attractive. Local judges will leave notices with those rating high on judges’ criteria. We will recognize winners in this column and at our next annual meeting. Meanwhile, please visit our Facebook page for BC Days photos by Catherine Simmons.

kind of happened,” said Domitruk. “I felt bad for her, she totally deserved the home run so we picked her up and carried her home,” Rodrigues said. The Fusion went on to win that game and eventually finished second at provincials. But something bigger than winning the silver medal also happened

to the team of 16-yearold girls. “We are always on the look out for extraordinary stories of sportsmanship,” explained Marc Schreiber, the vice-president of the St. Louis Sports Commission. While the organization does accept CONTINUED ON 21

nominations, most often they will select the award recipients through their own research. “We decide on the stories that we think rise to the level of deserving to be honoured at the event,” Schreiber said. “And sure enough, we found what was printed in the Langley Times online,” he said The Fusion will receive the Musial Award on Nov. 9 in St. Louis, Missouri. Named for the late St. Louis Cardinals’ Hall of Famer Stan Musial, the annual event recognized the greatest moments and stories of sportsmanship. The award was formerly known as the National Sportsmanship Award and has been presented since 1999. The Fusion will be the first recipient from outside the United States, Schreiber said. “In recognition of the team’s extraordinary character and selflessness, we have selected the Fusion to be honored,” it said in email informing to the Fusion of their honour. “The remarkable on-field gesture by your team reflects the remarkable acts of sportsmanship we strive to highlight and that personify the class and character embodied by Stan the Man.” Stan the Man was the late Musial’s nickname. The award will be presented by two for-

mer members of the Central Washington softball team who in 2008 did the same with a fallen opponent, in a video that went viral. “We did not expect this,” said Chick. “It means a lot to us as team,” Rodrigues said about getting the award. The Fusion are hop-

ing to raise enough money to send all 12 players and three coaches to St. Louis for the ceremony. Right now, airfare and accommodation is provided for just two people. “Hopefully we can raise enough for all 15 of us to go receive the award,” said coach

Gord O’Grady. “It is not really a two-person award, it is a team award.” The estimated cost for a ticket to St. Louis is about $800 per person, so multiply that by 13 and it is $10,000 just for the airfare. The various Fusion teams are holding tryouts in the upcoming

week and the focus will then shift to fundraising. Anyone wanting to help can donate online at www.langleysoftball.com/Langley-Fastball-Online-Store.aspx. And for donations greater than $300, the Fusion will display company logos on their team banner.

As long as the training fills deficiencies and gaps identified in your training plan that you create with your regional training coordinator and counts as a general business skill, then there is a good chance it is offered by this program. Examples of courses include: Leadership/Management training Marketing and sales Social media Computer skills (e.g. Word, Excel, Simply Accounting, Photoshop etc.) Bookkeeping WHAT IS THE APPLICATION PROCESS AND HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE? The first step is to review the eligibility checklist. If it appears that you may be eligible, complete the online application form. If you are approved, (a five working day process maximum), a training coordinator will contact you and work with you to create a training plan with two or more viable training options. Once you have chosen your training, the training coordinator will also assist you in enrolling for your chosen course(s). HOW IS MY TRAINING PAID FOR? The BC Chamber of Commerce handles payment for all eligible training funded through the MBT program. Your training coordinator will assist you with enrolment, but you will not need to pay for the training and be reimbursed, receive a cheque from the government, or any other payment system. It is all dealt with by the BC Chamber of Commerce. So what’s stopping you? Take advantage of the support and get the education you need to grow your business.

The Chamber fosters member and business advocacy. We provide members with networking, group benefits and affordable marketing and advertising opportunities and most importantly a voice as a collective group. I invite you to join the 450-plus other businesses in the Mission region who recognize the value of membership in the chamber network. The benefits of membership can best be conveyed to you when you meet our new member services co-ordinator, Raj Saran. Raj joins the Chamber team with a varied educational background in business management, psychology and political science. This is complimented by experience in trade show and business marketing as well as event and project management. As you can see Raj has great credentials and experience. We are counting on Raj to be a strong contributor to the Chamber team as she shares the mission, vision and values of the Chamber. Raj looks forward to engaging with each of our members over time. Of course you can stop by the Chamber and say hello in the meantime. One of the tools available to members to help gain exposure that Raj would like to talk to you about is the Chamber Business Track newsletter section in the Mission Record. There is great value to you as a member in participating in the marketing opportunity as the Record reaches virtually everyone in Mission and immediate area in addition to exposure on the Chamber web site. Please join me in welcoming Raj to the Chamber team!

Eva Poulson offers the key to a good home-buying experience

September 12 Annual Golf Tournament Place: Cedar Ridge Golf Course Time: Shotgun start at Noon Book your Foursome!

By Kathleen Rake For more than 25 years, Eva Poulson has been helping people find the right mortgage. And because Eva is a TD mobile mortgage specialist, she is available to help her clients in their homes or offices and outside normal banking hours – evenings and weekends included. Eva loves serving first-time home buyers. “There is so much for them to learn,” she said, “and I get to share in their excitement when everything comes together.”

EVA POULSON

She makes sure they understand all their options and guides them through their choices. “But it’s not just the young people or first-timers who need extra help,” explained Eva. “Sometimes people in their 70s (and up) need help securing or re-financing a mortgage. Often these people hesitate to ask for help because they’re embarrassed or they’ve been told they won’t be eligible, when indeed they are.” Eva is happy to help people whether they are buying a home or consolidating debt by refinancing their existing home. Every person Eva serves is a “high value client.” She says, “Everyone deserves to have a good experience when buying a home, they should surround themselves with people who understand their situation and can provide good advice.” Over the years, Eva has supported her communities by volunteering.

cently provided her time and expertise to support the Abbotsford Canuck Place Children’s Hospice and Mission Regional Chamber of Commerce Business Excellence Awards. As a long-standing Mission Regional Chamber of Commerce member, Eva finds great benefit in the networking opportunities. “I enjoy meeting new

people and getting to know and like them. The Chamber makes it easy.” “For me, business is not about just the money,” said Eva. “It’s about doing the right things for people.” For more information about finding the right mortgage for you, contact Eva at 604-854-0337 or eva.poulson@ td.com.

he original Mission Visitor Centre was built in St. Mary’s Park in 1973. Moving from its 10-year home in the Bellevue lobby, a locally built A-frame was constructed on the new site for summer use. By 1988 its location on the scenic Highway 7 made it so popular with visitors, it became a year-round facility, accommodating up to five staff during the busier months. Many Mission students learned to give directions at the VIC. With no heat, little space and a leaky roof, it was woefully inadequate as the Chamber of Commerce office and the initial focal point for visitors to Mission. In 1994, Chamber members began formulating a plan for a new venue. A building committee formed and by 2001 the dedication of the team finally paid off. Partnerships with the District of Mission, Chamber members and the community ensured

120 YEARS STRONG

Visitor Information Centre celebrates its 40th birthday! construction of a new building. Creating visual impact for tourists and a hub for local business, the cedar building reflects the forestry heritage of Mission. Built with local supplies, the ground-breaking ceremony was held at 34033 Lougheed Highway, on May 30, 2001. Officially opening its doors seven months later, the Visitor & Business Information Centre welcomes thousands of guests each year, with a wealth of information on local events, attractions, hiking trails and shopping. For those looking to travel beyond Mission’s reach, there are also guides for the rest of B.C. Local artisan and Mission-branded goods are also available, along with plenty of information on the business community. So next time you drive along the Lougheed Highway and admire the hand-carved house post, stop in and see all that Mission can offer you!

Rock musician Dallas Smith is bringing his country stylings to the Clarke Theatre Sept. 27. Smith, a 10-year veteran and front man for Default has stepped over to the world of country music and will be promoting his debut album, Jumped Right In, in Mission. There have been five top 10 singles so far, Nothing But Summer, What Kinda Love, Jumped Right In, Somebody Somewhere, and If it Gets Where You Wanna Go. To Smith, country music has always been about the special com-

bination of voice and song. “I’ve always chosen and written songs with challenging vocals that I love to sing,” said Smith. Smith will be joined by special guest The Matinee, a band whose five members have known each other since high school. Eager to colour outside the lines, the band finds itself in the rare position of being welcome at both rural festivals and the urban hipster ground zero of your choice. After years of roadwork and growth, The Matinee delivers an explosive live show re-

nowned for its uproar of stomping, clapping, and blazing chops. The concert is presented by Rock.It Boy Entertainment and Country 107.1. Tickets to the Friday, Sept.27 show are $32.50 each and available at all Ticketmaster locations, online at www.ticketmaster.ca, or by calling 1-885-985-5000. Doors open at 7 p.m. and the show starts at 7:30 p.m. The Clarke Theatre is located at 33700 Prentis Ave. For more information about Dallas Smith visit dallassmithmusic.com.

A 90-day countdown began Monday for a petition drive to force the effective legalization of simple possession of marijuana in B.C. Volunteers for Sensible B.C., led by long-time drug legalization advocate Dana Larsen, have until Dec. 5 to collect more than 400,000 signatures. Using the same law that forced repeal of the harmonized sales tax, the petition to trigger a province-wide referendum needs support from 10 per cent of registered voters in each of B.C.’s 85 electoral districts. Larsen has proposed that B.C. go around the federal prohibition with a “Sensible Policing Act” that would disallow the use of B.C. police resources to prosecute simple possession of small amounts of pot by adults. Marijuana possession cases still account for 60 per cent of drug violation reports to police in B.C., according to Statistics Canada figures from 2012. But the number of cases declined 10 per cent from 2011. There were 25,432 police-reported incidents of all types of drug offences in B.C. last year, a 7.4 per cent decline from 2011. Marijuana trafficking cases declined more than 20 per cent to 1,006 incidents, and importation and exportation of marijuana declined by 40 per cent. Marijuana growing cases declined 4.6 per cent, following a 28.6 per cent drop in 2011.

Outlaws hope youth Whatâ€™s Happening movement yields wins in Mission

Junior B hockey club hosts home opener Thursday Dan KINVIG ABBOTSFORD NEWS

Preseason games donâ€™t technically count in the standings, but a 4-1 record in exhibition play has given the Mission City Outlaws a dose of optimism and momentum heading into the regular season. â€œI think itâ€™s been a good measuring stick for us,â€? head coach Brad Veitch enthused. â€œIt doesnâ€™t obviously mean a whole lot (in terms of the standings), except for the fact that a lot of our young guys showed theyâ€™re ready to play in the league, which is important for us.â€? Indeed, the local junior B hockey clubâ€™s roster is characterized by youth. Thatâ€™s by design â€“Â Veitch, who took over the head coaching reins with just over a month to go in the 2012-13 season, said the development of youngsters is a huge part of his philosophy. â€œA goal of this club going forward is to move as many kids on to the next level (junior A and WHL) as possible,â€? he said. â€œWeâ€™ve gone young for that reason. We had some opportunities to get some older guys, but we wanted young guys who have the drive to get better. â€œWeâ€™re going to be a team to watch for the junior A scouts and the WHL scouts, because we are going to be young and talented.â€? The Outlaws will start the season with at least 12 rookies on the roster, but they have a solid core of veterans. Last yearâ€™s top forward line, comprised of left winger David McGowan, centre Cameron Bertsch and right winger Jonathan Philley, returns intact. Wearing the captainâ€™s C will be defenceman Dakota Klassen, the teamâ€™s lone third-year returning player. â€œWeâ€™re looking for a big season out of him,â€? Veitch said. â€œHeâ€™s battled some injuries his first two years, but we really think he can be a dominant player in our league. Heâ€™s a shutdown defenceman with a big shot.â€?

Klassen is a veteran presence on an otherwise youthful blueline crew, featuring a collection of promising 17-year-old rookies in Kyle Baron, Holden Wilkerson, Tristan Dundas, Issiah Piers and Brock Padgham whom Veitch believes have â€œa big future in hockey.â€? In goal, the Outlaws have William Latimer, who was acquired in a trade after serving as the backup goalie with the Western Canadian junior B champion Richmond Sockeyes last season. Competing with him for playing time is 15-year-old Jeffrey Veitch, the coachâ€™s son. Veitch said his squad is aiming to post a .500 record or better this season, which sounds like a modest goal until you consider that Missionâ€™s Pacific Junior Hockey League franchise has yet to post

a .500 record since arriving in town for the 2006-07 campaign. â€œWeâ€™re really trying to get into the community, and losing just makes it tough â€“Â nobody wants to come out and support a losing team,â€? Veitch noted. â€œWhat Iâ€™ve noticed in the years Iâ€™ve been involved in Mission Minor Hockey is, Mission players are going and playing in other locations in the same level. Iâ€™m really focused on keeping the local kids at home, and not automatically having them opt for Abbotsford or Aldergrove.â€? The Outlaws host their home opener vs. the North Delta Devils this Thursday at 7:15 p.m. at the Mission Leisure Centre. The majority of the clubâ€™s home games run on Thursday nights with the same 7:15 p.m. start time.

INTERNAL VERSUS EXTERNAL RELIGION The gospels frequently protest against the external manifestation of religion, whether it is the Pharisees wearing broad phylacteries or the public expression of loud and pompous prayer. One could argue that the development of religion from the Old to the New Testament moves in the direction of internalizing religious acts which originally had a primarily ritualistic or external function. In the oldest books of the Old Testament, we frequently witness acts of â€œexternalâ€? religion, such as public sacrifices and public prayer, whereas the later prophets such as Isaiah and Jeremiah stress the internal experience of religion, the religion of the heart. Christianity completes this movement, with Jesus stressing that ultimately God is mainly concerned only with what is in our hearts â€” compassion and love. It may be impossible, and even inappropriate, to completely disregard the external side of religion, since whether they be in the form of a physical object such as a cross or in the form of a ritual, such as a baptism. We should remember that ultimately it is the internal experience of religion that gives it meaning and value, and we should be careful to avoid getting caught up in its external manifestations. Beware of the scribes, who like to go about in long robes, and love salutations in the market places â€Ś and for a pretense make long prayers. R.S.V. Luke 20:46-47 Galatians 5:1

Five-year bans from entering U.S. under legal challenge Jeff Nagel BLACK PRESS

A provision that lets American border guards arbitrarily bar Canadians from entering the U.S. for at least five years is under fire from B.C. business leaders who see it as a major threat to cross-border enterprise. The B.C. Chamber of Commerce has joined a lawsuit filed in the U.S. that aims to quash the so-called â€œexpedited removalâ€? process. Typically, B.C. residents barred from entry under the provision have been deemed by U.S. border staff to have lied under questioning about the reason for their visit. â€œIt seems like itâ€™s pretty arbitrary in its application,â€? said Bellingham immigration lawyer Greg Boos, who has filed a submission in a U.S. court on behalf of the B.C. chamber, the Whatcom County chamber and other stakeholders. Expedited removal consists of an automatic ban on entering the U.S. for either five years or for life and thereâ€™s no avenue for appeal to the courts. Boos said B.C. businesses with key staffers who service equipment theyâ€™ve sold to American clients have been barred, causing chaos for the affected firms. â€œIf it was applied to the CEO of a B.C. company doing business in the United States, it would be disastrous for that company,â€? he said. Boos said bans on B.C. residents through

the provision have been sporadic so far, but there have been signs its use will grow. Some â€œhard coreâ€? border guards use it more than others, he said, and one in Blaine boasted about denying more Canadians entry than any other staffer. â€œThis has a chilling effect on cross-border trade and commerce,â€? Boos said, adding itâ€™s open to abuse and discrimination. Heâ€™s confident the legal challenge should succeed because the U.S. enabling regulations indicate Canadian non-immigrants arenâ€™t to be subjected to expedited removal. The only problem, he said, is persuading the U.S. ninth circuit court of appeals that it has the jurisdiction to rule that border staff are overstepping their powers. Oral arguments were held last week but a ruling isnâ€™t expected for six to nine months. Blaine lawyer Len Saunders said heâ€™s seen perhaps one in 100 bans reversed by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CPB) staff at the post where it was imposed, but beyond that recourse is virtually impossible. â€œThe CPB officer is judge, jury and hangman,â€? Saunders said. Heâ€™s seen a case where a B.C. resident with copies of his resume in his vehicle was barred after guards decided he was looking for work rather than vacationing. â€œUsually it happens because they think the person is coming down

to do something other than what they claim.â€? Saunders recounts another case involving a retired Abbotsford church minister who was regularly crossing the border to go to Lyndon to cover for the local minister for three weeks. The first two times he merely said he was visiting the church

when asked his reason for coming to the U.S. The third time he said he was covering for the colleague. Although the minister was being paid only a small per diem and didnâ€™t consider himself to be working in the U.S., CPB officers decided heâ€™d lied to them the previous two trips and banned him for five

years. â€œIf they can give an expedited removal to a minister from Abbotsford, they can give one to anyone,â€? Saunders said. A higher profile victim was Chad Rook, a Vancouver actor who has appeared in TV series such as â€œSupernatural.â€? He was slapped

with a five-year ban in January after a ninehour interrogation at the Peace Arch border crossing. Rook was on his way to Los Angeles to meet entertainment industry contacts and to visit friends and vacation. He initially neglected to mention the business side of his trip and was accused of changing

his story and trying to illegally work in the U.S. â€œThis draconian regime flies in the face of open borders and Canadaâ€™s long-standing friendship and trading relationship with our neighbours to the south,â€? B.C. Chamber of Commerce president John Winter said. â€œThese harsh border rules need to be fixed.â€?

Gardening

Over the next two seasons, when the weather turns cooler and wetter with shorter hours of daylight, wouldn’t it be wonderful to brighten up your patio with some great colour? Enhancing our patios with colourful containers is easier than you may think. You just need a different strategy for fall and winter. First: the containers. Terracotta in our climate is not the best for winter. Well-fired, quality pots with a lacquer finish are usually fine, but most inexpensive clay absorbs moisture and is more susceptible to cracking and chipping in winter. Wellfired ceramics are fine as are zinc, resin and well made plastic containers. As a rule of thumb, the larger the container, the better the plants do, simply because of the larger soil mass. For a nicer look, try grouping the planters together, and if you can, varying the heights. Soil is a key issue in fall and winter. Open, porous, well-drained soil is a must. Regular potting soils hold too much moisture that tends to rot roots. Your best bet is to get a quality potting soil and add a third measure of bark mulch. This is essentially a nursery mix which is ideal for all fall and winter plants. Most hardy plants will thrive in containers over winter, and with cooler temperatures will need minimal maintenance. They will, however, need to be kept moist, especially if the containers are under eaves. The main winter issue is the degree of cold temperatures. Hardy plants in winter containers will do nicely down to about -8°C. Lower than that, they need protection. The easiest shelter is to simply create a

B.C. has emerged from one of its sunnier summers in recent years with a below-average number of forest fires. As of Sept. 1, the B.C. government’s wildfire management branch record 1,687 reported wildfires for the season, compared to an average year of nearly 2,000 fires. This year’s fires burned a total of 11,434 hectares, far less than the average damage of more than 130,000 hectares. Wet weather returned with school to large parts of the province, after a sunny summer that saw several dry-weather records set. For the first time since records were kept, Vancouver airport recorded no rain for the entire month of July. The number of reported fires so far this year is slightly higher than the total for last year, but the total area burned in 2012 was nearly 10 times greater. The province spent $133 million on firefighting last year, a total that should be much lower when the bills are added up for 2013. Open burning remains banned for the Southeast Fire Centre region until as late as Sept. 20. Campfire bans were lifted Aug. 26 for the Kamloops and Coastal Fire Centre regions. Despite public information campaigns and open burning restrictions, provincial statistics continue to show about 40 per cent of wildfires are human caused, with most of the rest sparked by lightning.

Jack passed away about 6:00 am on September 1, 2013. He was diagnosed just two weeks earlier with liver cancer. He is pre-deceased by his brother Bill and sisters Janie and Eleanor (Pogie). He is survived by his partner of 49 years Jim Lorenzen, his brother Jim and wife Di as well as numerous nieces and nephews. It seems from this early photo his aspiration was to be a cowboy, perhaps because his grandfather was the first U.S. Marshall in the Oregon Territory. By his expression it did not last long and at age 13 he took up skating. He became a principal skater in the Ice Follies and “Holiday on Ice” and was said to get the Khrushchev salary when he was invited to skate at the American base in Garmish, Germany. Jack spent two years in the American Airforce and thereafter became a pro and taught in various places in the States before moving to Vancouver where he taught figure skating for many years at the Forum. In 1969 he and Jim began to raise Arabian horses and had many champions over the next 34 years as “Black Tent Arabians”. There will be a Celebration of Life on Saturday September 21, 2013 from 1:00 pm - 5:00 pm at Jack and Jim’s home 32069 Trembath Ave., Mission, BC. Bring your memories.

One of Missions finest character homes. This home was built in 1911 according to BC Assessment and has always been in the same family. The outside bricks were transported from Ontario at the builders request and the inside, even though in need of love, has all of the charm. This home could be easily converted back to a full single residence with living area down & bedrooms up. The attic space would make a great studio or bedroom. All this history comes with a large 10370 sq.ft. double lot and a wonderful view!

Nice curb appeal in this older 3 bdrm home! Home is in need of some TLC and is ideal for the handyman or a young family looking for a home willing to work sweat equity. Living facilities are up with a wood F/P in the living room, and dining room has sliding glass door leading to an enclosed glass deck and steps down to a semi private fenced back yard. Downstairs has a rec room, bedroom and laundry facilities with a 3 piece bathroom, utility room and a large separate storage area. Great investment!!

*These are approximate savings based on the difference between annual natural gas and electricity costs for space and water heating of a 2,300 square-foot house with average insulation and four occupants in the FortisBC Lower Mainland service area. Calculation compared standard-efﬁciency natural gas furnace and large storage tank water heater with electric furnace and equivalent water heater and is based on FortisBC natural gas rates as of May 2013 ($9.35/GJ) and electricity rates in the service area identiﬁed (Tier 1 and 2: $0.071 and $0.109 per kWh). Actual savings may vary. Savings do not include potential rebates and/or incentives.
