SERVING MISSION SINCE 1908

Majority of speakers want school changes

A total of 18 sports will be featured during the upcoming B.C. Winter Games, including alpine, freestyle, and cross-country skiing.

Jason Roessle ABBOTSFORD NEWS

Consolidating Missionâ€™s three high schools into one and leaving the other two buildings as middle schools was the preferred option for a number of speakers at Thursday nightâ€™s public information forum. About 200 people packed into the cafetorium at Heritage Park school to voice their opinions on whether Mission Public Schools should explore reconfiguring. Speakers were asked whether they wanted to maintain the status quo (three schools housing Grades 7-12) or separate the younger grades from the more senior students. Currently, the districtâ€™s school-withina-school model for Grades 7, 8 and 9, has proven unpopular with a number of parents since its inception in 2010. Several Mission teachers took the microphone at Thursdayâ€™s meeting â€” all with a similar message. â€œWe do not have enough courses now,â€? said Al Lafontaine, a teacher at Heritage Park. â€œWe are leading to an education death in our community.â€? A fellow Heritage Park teacher, Sandy Chambers, said sheâ€™s â€œtotally in favour of looking at a different model.â€? She said there are no higher level courses (advanced placement and honours) offered because there are not enough students. As well, athletically, if there were one high school, it would be much easier to field teams and find coaches. Scott Young, the district parent advisory council vice-chair, said he thinks more research needs to be done first. CONTINUED ON 03

Police investigate bomb threat at Christine Morrison school Alina KONEVSKI MISSION RECORD

A bomb threat closed Christine Morrison elementary school Tuesday. On Saturday, a passerby noticed the message on the back wall of the McRae Avenue facility and alerted the RCMP. Mission Public Schools’ district assis-

tant superintendent Randy Huth said the school was shut because the message was a “direct threat to the safety and well-being of staff and students. “We’re doing this in the best interest of students and staff and we’re going to err always on the side of safety,” said Huth. Although the district

would not reveal the exact content of the message, RCMP have confirmed that it was a bomb threat for Tuesday. School staff spent Remembrance Day Monday calling the parents of the 450 students in the kindergarten to Grade 6 French immersion school. The message has

been removed. Based on results of an RCMP investigation, the school returned to “business as usual” on Wednesday. A bomb profile dog was called out Nov. 12 and did not find anything suspicious. “The RCMP has just left and they have given the OK for students to come back to school

tomorrow,” said district school district superintendent Bill Fletcher on Tuesday afternoon. “They were just doing their last search to see if they could find anything in the school.” This is the first time that Christine Morrison has closed its doors as a result of such a threat, according to Huth.

Cat shot last week returns home Feline’s right hind leg had to be amputated Jason Roessle and Alina Konevski ABBOTSFORD NEWS

Twylla Walker’s cat, Two-Four, returned home Tuesday afternoon after spending a stressful few days at the veterinarian. Two-Four was shot on Nov. 5 in Mission by what is believed to be a .22-calibre rifle round. He had to have his right hind leg amputated and some of his intestines were removed. He has now been discharged from Cedar

Grove Animal Hospital. “We’re super elated that he actually made it through,” said Walker. Since last week, Walker has received calls from neighbours worried about their own cats and seeking updates on the case. The RCMP have opened a file, but there is no information on who may be responsible. When Two-Four returns to his home on Moore Avenue, there will be little moving

Customer appreciation sale downtown Nov. 21 Mission’s downtown merchants are hosting a customer appreciation sale next Thursday night, and are inviting residents to come down to First Avenue. According to Mission Downtown Business Association president Carlo Billinger, with the influx of new people to the community over the past number of years, many Missionites don’t realize the scope and breadth of what local merchants carry. “Everyone will have treats in their stores,” and some of the restaurants and retailers will be offering specials, said Billinger, who co-owns Rex Cox Men’s Wear. The annual event runs from 5 to 8 p.m. on Nov. 21.

around for him. He will be restricted to one room most of the time to prevent injuring himself. Walker will see how Two-Four adjusts for the first few weeks before determining if it is possible to outfit him with a mobility device. Up to last week, the vet bill was $2,600. Any donations can be made in Two-Four’s name at the vet’s office (102 - 32670 Lougheed Hwy.) or by calling 604820-8552.

“There are too many unanswered questions,” he said, including what would happen with staffing levels, programs, and busing. There were some who spoke in favour of the status quo. More than one speaker spoke about bullying, saying that some students need

Kick off this holiday season at the Junction Mall on Nov. 22 with the second annual Christmas tree lighting. Mission Community Service Society’s Christmas Bureau will officially kick off this year’s campaign at the event and everyone attending is encouraged to bring a non-perishable food donation to help the drive. “We invite everyone to come down to the Junction to get into the spirit of the holidays,” said Mr. Mike’s owner Renu Sidhu, who is coordinating the event. The tree will be lit at 6:30 p.m. and there will be contests and activities throughout the evening. Come dressed in your most hideous sweater and enter the Ugly Sweater Contest, or bring your sleuthing skills and join the scavenger hunt. There will also be a zone for kids, food, live music, and a chance to meet Santa beginning at 6 p.m.

The program raised more than $4,800 for the bureau last year. The bureau hopes to raise $120,000 this year to help needy families, said coordinator Phil Hope. More than 1,600 people relied on the organizations to help make their holidays brighter last year. The main Christmas Bureau office is located at 32646 Logan Ave., but a second location at the Junction (old Blockbuster building) will be opened to accept donations too. Registrations are only being taken at the Junction from Nov. 19 to Dec. 6, said Hope. Cash donations as well as non-perishable food and new gifts are needed this time of year. Look for the orange trailer at special events, supplied by Prospect Equipment, to drop off your contributions, said Hope. The trailer is now parked at Save On Foods.

OPINION

6 The Mission Record Thursday, November 14, 2013

Published & printed by Black Press Ltd. at 33047 First Avenue, Mission V2V 1G2

Events colour our perception

It wasn’t a particularly good week for politicians in Canada. What began with the summary expulsion of three senators over their alleged misuse of taxpayer money last week, ended with a drunken rant from the admitted crack-smoking mayor of Canada’s largest city. The Senate scandal crawled to an uninspired end on Tuesday after dominating headlines for weeks. All but one Conservative senator voted to expel the three, but not before enough muck had been thrown to spatter both the upper and lower house. Aside from the allegation of spending impropriety and outright fraud, there were counter claims that the office of the Prime Minister knew more than it was saying. Adding to the debate were accusations the Conservatives were running roughshod over judicial process by expelling the senators before an official investigation into their conduct was complete. Stephen Harper, who evidently believes that what the prime minister giveth can be taken away, was unrepentant in his handling of the mess. At the Conservative annual convention in Calgary he rejected any and all criticism.

QUESTION OF THE WEEK

But just as Tory senators swung the axe, the story was bumped from the front page. It was replaced by the train wreck that is Rob Ford. After months of denying the existence of a video purporting to show the Toronto mayor smoking crack, the video emerged. The initial angry denials were soon replaced by an admission and an apology – lots of apologies. But no sooner had the late-night talk show hosts warmed up their monologues, another video emerged, this one showing Ford in an apparent drunken rage. More apologies. All this, of course, has little impact on Mission, except to fill the evening newscasts. But it does colour (or confirm) our perception of politics and public life. And that is unfortunate. The vast majority of people in public office are honourable and dedicated to the well being of their constituents. But like the plane that lands safely, the politicians and public servants who do their job well, never make the headlines. – Black Press

Untangling oil pipeline politics Tom Fletcher

B.C. Views VICTORIA – Reaction was swift and scattered after the “framework agreement” on new oil pipelines announced last week by B.C. Premier Christy Clark and Alberta Premier Alison Redford. First, here’s what it doesn’t mean. “B.C. blinked,” according to one Toronto commentator, based on the popular notion that B.C. gave up its claim to a share of Alberta’s resource royalties from heavy oil. Clark never made such a claim, so it would be difficult to give it up. Her often-repeated condition of a “fair share” of revenues from any new oil pipelines is purposely vague, but after repeated protests from Alberta, Clark clarified as far back as last June that provincial royalties are not on the table. There is no constitu-

tional way to make such a demand, a point Redford has made several times. NDP leader Adrian Dix and the usual chorus of professional protesters claimed that Clark flip-flopped, opposing the Enbridge Northern Gateway proposal before the election and then embracing it once she was re-elected. This is also inaccurate. Clark’s five conditions were set out before the May election, demanding approval by a federal environmental review, “world-leading” spill prevention and response capability on land and at sea, meeting legal requirements to consult and share benefits with aboriginal communities, and the undefined “fair share” for B.C. Clark said numerous times during the campaign that the conditions have not been met, and made pessimistic noises about Northern Gateway, but she very carefully did not campaign against it. The B.C. Liberal platform also endorsed a Kitimat-area oil refinery proposed by this newspaper’s owner, and Clark repeatedly referred to that sort of industrial expansion

as one of the potential “fair share” components for B.C. The B.C. Liberal government made its opposition to Northern Gateway “as currently proposed” official on May 31, two weeks after the election, in its final submission to the federal review panel. If Clark had wanted to jump on the anti-pipeline bandwagon for political gain, that move could have been made earlier. NDP environment critic Spencer Chandra Herbert said the B.C. government has taken the position that more oil will reach the West Coast, by rail if not by pipeline. I’m not sure if or when that claim was made, but it’s true that rail shipments are already permitted. Here’s what Redford and Clark agreed on. Redford accepts B.C.’s five conditions, provincial royalties excluded, and Clark endorsed Redford’s proposed “Canadian Energy Strategy,” which B.C. rejected last year. A draft of the strategy released last summer contains no specifics on how it would facilitate a pipeline project from Alberta to B.C. It talks about developing Canada’s en-

ergy reserves and at the same time somehow reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and promises a final version next spring. Oh, and Quebec refuses to participate. Ottawa has sole jurisdiction over inter-provincial projects such as Northern Gateway and the proposal by Kinder Morgan Canada to expand the 60-year-old Trans Mountain pipeline to Burnaby and refineries in Washington. If there is to be some extra revenue for B.C. from oil traffic, it could theoretically take the form of a toll on pipelines. Redford pointed out the problem with that idea in her speech to an energy forum in Vancouver last week. She noted that 42 per cent of B.C. natural gas is piped through Alberta to markets. If B.C. can toll Alberta oil, the same could be done with B.C. gas. None of B.C.’s five conditions has yet been met. Legally, they don’t have to be, except for the one about accommodating aboriginal title.

YOUR VIEWS ‘Entitlements’ are the social safety net Reading Tom Fletcher’s columns is bad for my blood pressure with his right-wing slant on just about everything. His latest column warning of the “Perils of an entitlement state” reads like something you’d find on Fox News or Glenn Beck. What he calls “entitlements,” according to the wonderful world of the Fraser Institute, is what the rest of us call the social safety net, universal medical, and

all the other things by which a modern, progressive, liberal democracy is defined. He praises Mark Milke who writes for those spin doctors who are devoted to bringing the same economic disasters to us that have ruined the American economy, brought about massive income disparities, and decimated the middle class. To say nothing about the loss of government oversight and regula-

tions which kept the corporations and chief executive officers in check. Or the great lie of prosperity through austerity. Oh, what a wonderful country we would have if only we listened to our betters on the right as Fletcher does. By all means, let’s turn back the clock to the good old days of a feudal economy under the twin evils of free trade and globalization and kiss our democracy goodbye.

Too many people do not understand the bond between animals, humans Re: Mission cat shot in Hatzic As beloved pet felines lose their lives or limbs because of some cowards’ bullets, the very unfortunate fact is, there likely would be far less animal abuse or slaying if far more people could appreciate the preciousness of animals, especially pets. Most notable is the close bonding that can exist between beloved pets and their human hosts. Tragically, while some humans make

these animals suffer, the former are ignoring the potential for symbiotic-like, physical and mental healing relationships that can exist between pets and their human hosts; bonds in which both parties benefit: e.g. lowering dangerously-high blood pressure in humans, and the tendency toward healthier lives for soothingly stroked, i.e. massaged, pet animals.

It’s not uncommon for neighbours who want to subdivide their property to collaborate and go through the development process together. A joint rezoning application would save property owners time and money as only one set of fees related to

the subdivision would be required. Costs to split up land could add up to tens of thousands of dollars, depending on the size of the property, as signs, engineering reports, and public hearings have to be accommodated. Dana and Debbie Roy chose to work with their neighbours after seeking advice from

district planners more than a year ago, however, they are doubting they made the right move after being told the district now requires a park fee with their application, which is about five per cent of their land value. Mission requires developers who are creating three or more

lots to make contributions to the district’s park land, or provide cash in lieu of it. “We were not informed that by being part of a larger group of lots, that we would be subject to a park fee, which we are now told will be $24,000,” said Debbie Roy in her CONTINUED ON 12

WHAT IS THE IMAGE OF GOD?

FROM 10

Some 2500 years ago, the Greek philosopher Xenophanes remarked that people are prone to making their gods in their own image. He noted that Ethiopians conceived their gods to be darkskinned with snub noses, while the Thracians made theirs red-haired and blue-eyed. Xenophanes quipped that if horses, oxen, and lions had hands and could produce works of art, their gods would no doubt be represented after their own kind. We moderns are perhaps less likely to think of God as having a physical body, but we are still prone to anthropomorphism (applying human forms or attributes to non-human things). In fact, even referring to God as He (or She) is a form of anthropomorphism. We fall prey to this mistake when we assume, perhaps unconsciously, that God shares our values. Instead, we should ask ourselves if we share God’s values and whether we have made a God that is basically a reflection of our values and ideals, or instead, struggled to make ourselves a reflection of God?

correspondence to the district. Had they known, she and her husband would have taken out their own subdivision application because they are only creating two lots by subdividing their Richards Avenue property. The Roys teamed up with two of their neighbours more than a year ago, and at that time, park land contributions were not required. “I still believe you get more by going through the process together,” said Mission’s deputy director of development services, Barclay Pitkethly, who suggested the couple can close the file and start again. After the Roys raised concerns about the park fee, Pitkethly adjusted the way it was being divided and reduced the Roys’ fee

to $14,000. The neighbour who would be gaining six lots would be picking up the extra amount. “We’ve brought the appraisal down as far as we could,” said the deputy director, who estimated the properties are worth $2.3 million. The district evaluates the land as a service to developers, however they can choose to get it appraised by another professional. Mission council did not consider waiving the park fee. “You have to take the good with the bad. The good is you’ve had a more efficient process, saved some money. The bad is you have to pay a park fee,” said Coun. Jenny Stevens. “The benefits of time and cost savings of doing it as a joint venture is greater than what the park fee is overall.”

Mission 2014 BC Winter Games

Creating a community legacy

n February 2014 the District of Mission will be hosting as many as 2,200 participants from across British Columbia as they arrive in our community to take part in the 27th BC Winter Games. This is the first time Mission has hosted a BC Games event and the community will rally over 2,500 volunteers in order to host athletes, coaches and officials. The Games, which will be held from February 20–23, 2014, will include participants in 18 sports. Most of the competitions will take place in Mission with some events in Hemlock, Whistler, the Township of Langley, Maple Ridge, and Abbotsford. Local volunteers make the Games happen – they are the driving force and heart and soul of the BC Games. From meal preparation, to transportation, to hospitality, and sport competitions, the enthusiasm and expertise of volunteers is what makes it all happen. Members of the

community are encouraged to volunteer and contribute to making the Games a memorable experience for the participating athletes, coaches, and officials. Generally there is close to one volunteer for every Games participant so that means we need over 2,200 volunteers for preGames and Games-time roles. In addition to the many volunteers who will be onsite at various venues in February 2014, a number of volunteers work for up to two years in advance of the Opening Ceremony in order to ensure the Games are a success. A communitybased Board of Directors was elected in the spring of 2012 and has been working to plan the Games ever since. The Board is led by a President and Vice President and includes 14 Directorates, dividing the tasks into like-areas. Liaisons from various community organizations also join the Board to provide support to the Games. The Directors lead teams of Com-

mittee Chairs each responsible for specific aspects of planning and staging the Games. In all there are over 100 Chairs. Each volunteer Director and Chair is committed to ensure that the community comes together in a celebration of pride and that participants have an unforgettable experience. The BC Winter Games is a significant event for Mission and will have an estimated economic impact to our community of over $1.8 million. The Games are supported by provincial Corporate and Funding Partners but, the support of local businesses is key to the success of the Games. Businesses can become involved through the Friends of the Games program which has a range of contribution levels for both cash and gifts-in-kind. “One of our greatest expenses is food for the athletes.” states Friends of the Games Director, Grant Mottershead. “Contributions to provide healthy snacks

for athletes and volunteers are being sought. There are many other areas that local businesses can support, ranging from office equipment and supplies, decorations, and infrastructure needs.” Support the community of Mission and be part of making the Games an amazing experience for British Columbia’s young athletes. Your contribution will help make this an experience that will last a lifetime for participants – the Games can be a springboard for athletes, coaches, and officials as they move on to higher levels of competition, as well as providing a memorable experience for organizers and volunteers. You will also be helping to create a legacy in sport, recreation, and culture for the District of Mission. Contact the Friends of the Games Directorate to learn more about how you can support the Games at 778-879-0710 or FOG2014@bcwintergames.ca or visit us at www.bcwintergames.org.

That is a question that will be asked many times as we move into the spring of next year. Why will it be asked? Well for the many people who have chosen to be involved in the exciting opportunity that the Mission 2014 Winter Games offers; they will be asking if you took part in some way in the premier event that drew province wide attention to Mission. I know many people who became more taken with an event after it had passed by simply because of the buzz and glow it had generated but at the time they didn’t take the opportunity to be involved. Don’t miss out on your chance to help create the best Winter Games and to really help enhance the image that Mission has both inside and outside our boundaries. Please go to www.bcgames.org to volunteer or to become a financial supporter or provider for our 2014 BC Winter Games! Shop local, spend local, eat local, enjoy local! Pay It Forward is back. In support of all business in our District and the Christmas Bureau, the Chamber has brought back this highly successful promotion launched last year. With over 40,000 receipts turned in 2012 that represented holiday spending at local businesses, a donation of $4,863 was made to the Mission Christmas Bureau. We are pleased to have the support of BC Hydro, Prospera, Vancity and TD to help make this year’s program another huge success and who knows; maybe we will hit the 60,000 receipts mark this year! Lend your voice to advocating for business in Mission... be part of your Chamber of Commerce!

Sean Melia PRESIDENT

Pay It Forward… Shop Local is Back! Mission business plans on thanking shoppers again this year for choosing to shop local. As we go into the holiday season, the Mission Regional Chamber of Commerce would like to thank you on behalf of Mission business by paying it forward. For every receipt that customers send us or drop in one of the marked boxes at local retailers between November 22 and December 15, the Chamber will donate 5¢ to the Mission Christmas Bureau. Last year the program raised $4,863 for the Mission Christmas Bureau that

helped more than 700 families during the holiday season. When you shop at a locally owned retailer your always pay it forward as $73 of every $100 spent stays in the community. Shop at a large chain, still $47 remains in the community through wages and additional purchasing. Those dollars then circulate in the community 75 times. The simple act of shopping in Mission provides continual community benefit that lasts throughout the year. During the holiday season, we encourage you to visit local businesses

and pay it forward. Ask for a copy of your receipt or gift receipt, and drop it into one of the many boxes around town or at the Chamber Offices at 34033 Lougheed Highway. Feel free to blank out the amounts. Businesses encourage your customers to submit receipts by making up a box for collection and displaying the Pay It Forward Sticker. This program is open to all businesses in Mission. Final results will be revealed at the Chamber’s Christmas Luncheon on December 19. So support your community this holiday season by shopping local!

Natural Reflextions: Head-to-toe customer satisfaction By Kathleen Rake , Click Media Works “We owe our success to our clients,” said Carol Bisgard, owner of Natural Reflextions Day Spa on Horne Street in Mission. Bisgard opened her business in 2003, originally providing reflexology and massage services. But that changed quickly. “We listened to our clients. They really liked what we were doing, but they wanted more. So we obliged them,” said Bisgard. Today a long list of esthetic services for men and women – from pedicures and manicures, to waxing, facials and more – complements the therapeutic massage and reflexology treatments on the Natural Reflextions menu. “In 2009 we expanded our original premises so we could provide more services to more people. Now we have seven treatment rooms and a central lounge area,” she added. This year, Bisgard, along with co-owner and husband Ken Bisgard, office manager Susan Kirchmayer, spa manager Dianna Palma, and seven professional staff members celebrate

November 14 Speed Networking AM Place: ABC Restaurant

Natural Reflextions’ 10th anniversary. “This industry, like most others, experiences low and high cycles,” said Palma. “During both slow and busy times, we try to have enough staff on to accommodate walk-ins and last-minute bookings. We know how busy people are these days and we want to make sure all clients get the services they want, as conveniently as possible.” But it’s not just a matter of enough staff. According to Palma, the staff at Natural Reflextions is “trained, professional and committed to providing a thoughtful, relaxing and client-centered experience.” One piece of advice for people wanting to start their own businesses: “Research,” said Bisgard. “Research before you start so you don’t have to learn the hard way. The Mission Chamber is a great resource.” Natural Reflextions is wheelchair accessible and open to serve clients six days a week, with extended hours on Wednesdays and Thursdays.

Preparation has begun for the 30th Candlelight Parade which is a great vehicle for local businesses to get noticed at the beginning of the holiday season. “The parade is the largest nighttime one held in BC,” notes parade chair, Cal Crawford. “It takes many volunteers and of course the support of our sponsors to achieve its ongoing success.” With an average annual attendance of 14,000 over the last 5 years, the Mission parade is one of the largest. Families come from as far as Washington State, Vancouver and Hope to watch this down home celebration of the Christmas season wind down 1st Avenue from Horne to Park. The parade is a great opportunity

“T

he most wonderful time of the year” is fast approaching and it would not be complete without the Mission Regional Chamber of Commerce Candlelight Parade. Mission held Christmas Parades on a Saturday afternoon for decades, until the decision to move it to an evening production was made in 1984. With bright light displays illuminating the crowds and festive music playing, the magic was created and we now host the largest nighttime parade in British Columbia. Today the event draws in crowds in excess of 14,000, with more than 75 participating floats. Initially started by local business, they took the opportunity to host the event as a “thank you” to residents for supporting them throughout the year. It was also the ideal time to raise awareness and support for the Mission Christmas Bureau and to this day

volunteers walk the parade route collecting non-perishable goods. With floats run and sponsored by companies, they were soon joined by local schools, sports teams and community groups, showing the overwhelming community spirit that remains Mission’s signature today. The route has changed little over the years and still runs along 1st Avenue from Horne to Park. This year for the 30th anniversary of the nighttime parade the Mission Chamber will add an additional theme, the BC Winter Games. To celebrate Mission hosting the upcoming sporting event this February 20th-23rd, floats have been asked to also highlight the 18 sports featured, which include skiing, karate, hockey and archery as well as their holiday spirit. So, mark the date! Come get your first glimpse of Santa on Friday December 6 at 7:30pm – see you there!

Welcome to the driver’s seat

Established in 1902, Cadillac is one of the oldest luxury brands, and continues to be General Motors’ flagship in terms of refinement and technology. Zack Spencer

Question

Cadillac in the rear-view mirror of the European premium brands 2014 Cadillac CTS One auto trend that shows little sign of waning is the move towards more luxury or premium cars by manufacturers and consumers alike. As baby boomers age, they have earned the nicer things in life, and the offspring of baby boomers are getting used to the finer things in life, so more automakers are moving upscale. The Europeans do luxury and performance better than most and the Japanese luxury brands have been putting in their time to becoming a real force. But long before the Japanese, there have always been the American luxury brands, with many firsts in features and technology. Established in 1902, Cadillac is one of the oldest, along with Mercedes-Benz, and continues to be General Motors’ flagship in terms of refinement and technology. Looks The smaller Cadillac ATS was released a year ago and went on to win the North American Car of the Year award. General Motors has taken that platform and elongated it to produce the lightest mid-sized car in its class. It’s a full 173kg lighter than the benchmark BMW 5-Series it competes against, and 34kg lighter than the outgoing car. A lighter car, made of

Verdict The price of the CTS ranges from about $51,000 for the base model to $66,000 for the top premium trim level. The Vsport, high performance model is priced at almost $75,000. The Cadillac CTS is not an inexpensive car, but it offers many features like standard heated and vented leather seats, Bose stereo and push button start even on the base model. Compared to some of the other mid-sized luxury sedans it is less expensive, plus it is a worthy car for any driving enthusiast.

Truck tires tread lightly in the snow ‘‘

Remember that your four-wheel drive vehicle may help you get going quicker than other vehicles but it won’t help you stop any faster..

’’

Ian Harwood

The temperature is starting to drop, the leaves are clogging up the streets and snow is beginning to fall in parts in parts of B.C. Driving in the winter season brings challenges no matter which part of the province you call home. My remarks are aimed chiefly at truck owners but the message is common for all: driver and vehicles must be equally prepared. In winter, braking and stopping vehicles of all kinds is perhaps

where most of us get into trouble. The tires play a critical role in stopping the vehicle, and so they need even more care and attention than in the other seasons. Most SUVs have a passenger car tire classification with M+S stamped on the sidewall, for Mud and Snow and are considered all- season tires. If it is not, your vehicle must be fitted with tires suitable for any type of climate, even the most severe ones. In winter the pressure of the tire must also be controlled more frequently. This is because a reduction of the outside temperature causes a contraction of the air inside the tire, accelerating the normal and gradual pressure loss process by a value around 1-2 PSI for each 5° C decrease in temperature. Contrary to popular opinion, a lower inflation pressure than normal does not improve tire traction on snow. It makes them much more prone to damage. Always remember that in any season and with any

temperature, insufficient pressure is always the main cause of tire damage. Use brakes carefully. Brake early. Brake correctly. It takes more time and distance to stop in icy conditions. Watch for slippery bridge decks, even when the rest of the pavement is in good condition. Bridge decks will ice up sooner than the pavement. Do not use the cruise con-

trol in winter conditions. Even roads that appear clear can have sudden slippery spots and the short touch of your brakes to deactivate the cruise control feature can cause you to lose control of your vehicle. Don’t get overconfident in your 4x4 vehicle. Remember that your four-wheel drive vehicle may help you get going quicker than

other vehicles but it won’t help you stop any faster. Besides, many 4x4 vehicles are heavier than passenger vehicles and actually may take longer to stop. And don’t bank on your 4x4’s traction. Your 4x4 can lose traction as quickly as a two-wheel drive vehicle. If your vehicle is equipped with anti-lock brakes, do not pump them in attempting to stop. The right way

is to steer into the skid while applying the brake pedal evenly. Look farther ahead in traffic than you normally do. Actions by cars and trucks

will alert you quicker to problems and give you a split second extra time to react safely. ian.harwood@drivewaybc.ca

Perpetual driving self-betterment: Because you’re worth it

’’

Alexandra Straub

B.C. racecar driver Cherie Storms told me she was taking an advanced driver training course to appease her father’s wishes. She’d been putting it off since teenagedom. That said, her father is an accomplished racecar driver and a proficient motorist, so you could argue it was an inevitability. But she had to find the desire in herself first. What followed, even she didn’t think would happen. She recently took home the championship title for the B Spec series in her Mazda2 for the 2013 race season. She grew up in a motorsports household but it wasn’t until she actually got behind the wheel at the driving course that her mindset changed. “I was just overwhelmed with all of the technical aspects that it takes to be a good driver,” she stated. It’s like what my grade 12 math teacher always said, “Math is not a spectator sport.” There was even a poster on the cubicle wall to remind us. The same thing goes for driving. Except there’s no poster in the cubicle for that!

Every time you get behind the wheel of a vehicle, there’s a possibility you can change your life or the lives of others....

We need to be an active participant, not a wallflower. Anyone who has taken advanced driving courses will know exactly what Cherie is talking about. It’s not just about knowing how to shift gears on a manual transmission without jerking the car, or parallel parking your sedan without curbing the rims. Driving is so much more. I understand that this mode of transportation is a necessity for many. And it’s something done out of convenience rather than love. Kind of like laundry or grouting the bathroom floor tiles. Then again, for others, it’s a passion. Myself included. Taking a specialized course, whether it’s a track day or a race school isn’t just for wannabe racers. It’s for everyone. And we can all learn if we have an open mind. We read to keep our mind sharp. We walk/run/work out to keep our bodies active. We sleep to keep our bodies functioning. Why should driving be any different? Why shouldn’t we actively engage in making ourselves better drivers? Every time you get behind the wheel of a vehicle, there’s a possibility you can change your life or the lives of others. We might not think too much about it, but operating a vehicle is a huge responsibility. Poor driving habits, not shoulder checking, not using your signals, driving in the left lane when you’re not passing are minor details in the grand scheme of things, but have a large impact. It’s never too late to refresh the basics and then pick up a few new good habits. For example, if you look at any of the top athletes in their sport, they’re training most

consecutive Formula1 world championship. Sure, he gets a break, but he’s constantly training to be faster and stronger. In another interview, I chatted with Izod Indy racecar driver Simona de Silvestro. She tells me that there’s really no such thing as an “off-season.” She says she trains all year long. In fact, she trains harder when she’s not always behind the wheel of a car to prepare for the upcoming races. If the pros do it, we should to. Some of the most fun I’ve had behind the wheel of a car has been at a driving school. Whether it was the three-day racing school at the Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca with the Skip Barber program, or a track day at the Mission Raceway with Morrisport Advanced Driving, or even a track program close to you, it’s a win-win. If we’re all safer drivers then the chances of accidents are minimized and we can keep our vehicles dent-free longer. And avoid going through insurance claims. The few hundred dollars it takes to enrol is of infinite worth in the long run. Alexandra.straub@drivewaybc.ca Twitter.com/cargirlsgarage

Winner of the Week

Vernon resident Rodney Knopp is our first Question of the Week Winner. We asked readers to tell us about a favourite car from the past and Rodney had no hesitation in nominating his old Fiat.

“In 1978 when I was in high school in Kamloops I owned a 1972 Fiat 2-door sedan,” Rodney explained. “I was keen on a girl in school, and one day she asked me for a ride. While driving and chatting, the muffler fell off the car. She laughed and ducked down so as not to be seen by anyone. “I dropped her off and she laughed some more as I drove away, as loud as the car could be without a muffler.” Young Rodney figured that was that but . . . “Catherine and I are now in our 30th year of marriage and still love how the car connected us!”

Welcome

Drives-U-Crazy Solid line lunacy It seems to me that few people know when it is permissible to turn left across a solid centre line. If you can make the turn without hindering people behind you that is fine but if you can’t – drive drive

on because it’s the law. I live near a hospital and see people break this rule daily, allowing cars to stack up behind while they wait for a clearance in traffic to complete their turn. What drives-u-crazy. kmorgan@blackpress.ca

automatically adjust to a driving situation. An optional air suspension was also available with an electronic damping system. The E350 (coupe or sedan) is powered by a 3.5 litre V6 with 268 hp and 258 lb-ft of torque. The E550 (coupe or sedan) has a 5.5 litre

The sedan also comes in a high-performance AMG 63 edition with a 6.2-litre V8 that makes 518 horsepower and 465 lb.-ft. of torque. All three engines are mated to a 7-speed automatic transmission and drive goes to the rear wheels of the Coupe and to all four wheels of the Sedan. The rear-drive 3.5L V6 gets best fuel economy at 11.9 L/100/km in the city and 7.6 L/100/km on the highway. The 6.2L V8 is the gas guzzler, with a city/highway rating of 16.5/10.2 L/100/ km. All three engines also prefer premium fuel. A standard Dynamic Handling package also allows the driver choose a sporty-set-up at the touch of a button. This changes the continuously variable damping, the speed-sensitive power steering (with variable centering), ESP/ASR (traction control), accelerator response, and speed of

automatic gear changes. New active safety innovations included Attention Assist, which is a driver drowsiness monitor, PreSafe, which is preventative occupant protection system, Adaptive High Beam Assist, which automatically dims headlight high beams, and an automatic emergency braking system called Distronic Plus. Attention Assist is a warning system that can sense a drop in driver attention level. It continuously monitors more than 70 different driver performance parameters, such as erratic steering behaviour, and will signal when it’s time for the driver to take a break. Four new E-Class models were added for the 2011 model year: an E350 4MATIC station wagon, E350 BlueTEC diesel sedan, and two convertibles, the E350 cabriolet and E550 cabriolet. At highway cruising speeds you can barely hear the E350 BlueTEC diesel

engine, throttle response is fast (for a diesel) and pulling power (398 lb ft of torque from 1600 to 2400 rpm) is phenomenal. Engine upgrades followed in 2012. The E350 4MATIC got a direct-injection 3.5-litre V6. The E550 4MATIC got a 4.6-litre bi-turbo V8 and the E63 AMG got a 5.5-litre bi-turbo V8. All models also receive a revised transmission, electric power steering and LED license plates. Even though owner costs tend to be higher than average, the E-Class made Consumer Reports’ ‘Recommended list of cars to buy and the E350 BlueTEC was singled out for special praise. If style, comfort and safety top your auto “wish list”, and you’ve got the money, consider the remarkable Mercedes-Benz E-Class. bob.mchugh@drivewaybc.ca

A complete mechanical check should always be performed by a reliable auto technician prior to purchase.

Recalls on the 2010 to 2012 MercedesBenz E-Class: 2010/2011: The power steering assist system may fail due to the loss of power steering fluid from a fitting on a high-pressure power steering line. Dealers will inspect, tighten the fitting and, if necessary, replace an O-ring seal. 2011: Rear window privacy glass may not conform to Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 205 Glazing Materials. Dealers will replace the affected windows.

2011: Diesel fuel may leak from a fuel heater o-ring seal, on the fuel filter assembly, in vehicles equipped with a diesel engine. Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the diesel fuel filter assembly. 2012: The right side window curtain airbag may have been manufactured incorrectly and, as a result, could deflate more quickly than intended following deployment. Dealers will replace the right side window curtain airbag.

But he and his wife Catherine have the last laugh when they open up their hydro bill. “I think the last bill was just a few dollars more than the one we got before we bought the car in July so that’s inexpensive driving,” said Knowles. “I work out at the airport and so I travel about 10 kilometres each way every day. I never let the battery go below 20 percent but I still find I can sometimes go four days before I plug it in overnight.” In the summer, Knowles said he can easily get up to the 160 km range on a single charge but knows the Vancouver Island winter will take that down to around 120 as the wipers and heater take their energy toll. “We moved from Ladner

I can tell you that early Japanese cars are becoming much sought after so let’s look at some that are still affordable, if you can find a survivor or rust free example. If you still have one of the

Investing in collector car futures Looking into my automotive crystal ball, I see a number of reasonably priced Japanese cars with the potential to go up in value, not down. And while you wait for their price to rise these collector cars of the future should give you endless driving pleasure – that is until you sell! Now to be fair, I’ve not always been right so there’s a caution. In 1973, I recall talking to a man, who had just returned to the UK from Australia. He told me about a car called a Honda Civic, which would make a Mini look ridiculous in compari-

the Japanese Lotus Elan. Unlike the thoroughbred and somewhat finicky Lotus engine, the Miata’s four-cylinder, twin-cam, four-valvesper cylinder engine is very reliable. In an eight-year production run, 430,000 first generation Miatas were built. This rock solid, rear-wheel-drive sports car does not rattle or shake like most convertibles. The soft top can be raised and lowered effortlessly with just one hand. The Japanese engineers tried out more than 100 different exhaust systems until they achieved the sound they desired to make it sound like a British sports car. Pay $5,500 - $9,000.

1990-99 Toyota MR2:

The second generation MR2 was larger and weighed (160 to 180 kg) more than its square predecessor. The body styling was now much more streamlined; if you use your imagination, it has a resemblance to both the Ferrari 348 and the Ferrari F355. Because of this, the new MR2 was labeled by some as “The poor man’s Ferrari”. If you purchase the turbocharged version, you might feel like you are driving a Ferrari! Pay $5,250 - $7,000

1971-73 Datsun 240Z:

An early Datsun 240Z or event a 260Z from a dry climate such as California or Arizona, one that you can still see and count the spot welds on the quarter panel rear wheel arches is a car to snap up. These Ferrari 275 GTB lookalikes have a magnificent overhead-cam, straight six-cylinder engine and independent rear suspension. Consequently they are fast and handle very well. Parts are also still readily available. Pay $7,250 - $21,000.

1993-95 Mazda RX-7:

The twin sequential turbocharged RX-7 is a model that has generally been overlooked by many. The 1.3-litre Wankel engine screams and behaves like a motorcycle with its 8,000 rpm red-line. With 255hp it is a sports car without compromise, unfortunately also not many buyers! Mazda had priced this model out of the market. If you can find a mechanic familiar with rotary engines and want to have some fun, this is the model to consider, definitely one-step up from the Miata. Pay $10,500 - $18,000

Springs opens second Korean location Just four months after opening a Springs Tap House in South Korea, the company is expanding its presence in the country. The Mission Springs Brewing Company opened its first Seoul location in the Itaweon district in June 2013. It is now opening a second brewery in Seoul’s Cheongdam area, where Mission craft brews come straight to Korean consumers.

“It’s a very busy time for everyone involved,” said co-owner Brock Rodgers in a release. “We are exporting and serving craft beer that we manufacture right here in Mission.” Rodgers owns Mission Springs with Santino Sortino. They recently tripled their manufacturing capacity in order to keep up with demand and are currently installing new kegging, canning and bottling lines.

“The acceptance and success of these facilities in Korea has far exceeded our expectations and we look forward to opening more, leading to increased imports from Canada,” said Rodgers. Demand for craft beer is growing and small breweries are proliferating in B.C. Kevin Winter, Springs’ head brewer, has seen a surge in demand for products. “I’m over the moon

at the tremendous success that we’ve been able to generate,” said Winter. “South Korea has fully embraced the craft beer movement and Mission Springs Brewing Company is proud to be there.” When Seoul’s Museum of Modern Contemporary Art opens its cafe on Nov. 13, the Mission Springs Brewing Company will be featured as the craft beer of choice.

Celtic tunes at next Coffee House concert Amy Stephen will be performing original and Celtic tunes at the Mission Coffee House Concert Series Nov. 16. Expect to hear accordion, harp and piano, vocal and percussion and be prepared to listen, sing along and enjoy yourself during this great evening of music. Playing traditional Celtic music has been one of Stephen’s lifelong passions. Growing up in western Canada, surrounded by Scottish bagpipes on one side

and four-part harmony around the piano with the family on the other side, she naturally grew to learn and love Celtic songs and tunes, as well as instruments. Stephen often performs solo singing gigs while accompanying herself on the harp, however she also plays accordion and pennywhistle with other celtic musicians. She is a popular performer and studio musician and has played on many concert and

recording projects. A co-founder of Canada’s internationally acclaimed Celtic funk band, Mad Pudding, she toured with that group for over 10 years across North America and Europe. The band released four CDs of original and traditional music between 1994-2000. Stephen has more recently released four Celtic-influenced recording: “And Then It Pours” (a mixtures of original and traditional music), “A West

Coast Carol” (Christmas songs sung and played on harp, piano and flutes), “Among the Sanctuaries” (spiritual songs from various faith traditions), and “In the Heather.” The concert will be held at a new venue, the Clarke Theatre cafetorium, located in Heritage Park Centre at 33700 Prentis Ave. Open stage with Kitchen Sync starts at 7 p.m., and Stephen performs at 8 p.m. Admission is $5.

A documentary about an intergenerational dance project filmed in Mission is making its debut at UFV’s Abbotsford campus. For six months in 2012, UFV researchers studied the benefits for both children and care-home residents involved in an intergenerational dance program for the Pleasant View Dance Project. The research team tested residents for physiological and cognitive benefits and interviewed children to explore their experience and attitudes towards their elderly dance partners. The film will be shown Friday, Nov. 29 at 6:30 pm inside the UFV Abbotsford campus lecture theatre (B101). RSVP is not necessary to this public event See the trailer here: http:// goo.gl/NhiR7f.

Big saves by goalie Jeffrey Veitch lifted the Mission Outlaws to a 4-4 tie with the Aldergrove Kodiaks and earned him the game’s first star on Nov. 6 at Aldergrove Arena. The Kodiaks outshot the Outlaws 60-31, but all but four shots were denied by Veitch. And after a wild first 40 minutes which saw each team score four times, neither could net the winner in the third period or overtime. Mission had raced out to a 2-0 lead with goals from Bryce Pisiak and Cameron Bertsch, but the Kodiaks responded with three straight to close out the first period. Kenny Prato, Elvis Jansons and Jonathan Philley scored in a 4:28 span. The second period saw Outlaws goals from Eddie Lalonde and Bertsch while Joshua Cronin replied for the Kodiaks.

Mission Roadrunners coach Kevin Watrin called it the best game he’s ever seen Jesse Walker play, and it’s hard to dispute that notion. Walker, the Roadrunners’ Grade 11 speedster, dominated on both sides of the ball, accounting for four touchdowns in Mission’s 33-7 win over Ballenas last Saturday to open the provincial AA football playoffs. Playing on the artificial turf field at Abbotsford’s W.J. Mouat Secondary, Walker racked up 125 rushing yards and two TDs on the ground, caught a scoring pass from Evan Horton en route to another 116 yards receiving, and also hauled in two interceptions on defence, one of which he returned to the end zone. The Roadrunners, ranked No. 3 in AA, move on to face the Frank Hurt Hornets of Surrey in the B.C. quarter-finals this Friday. Kickoff is at 7 p.m. at W.J. Mouat.

IN MEMORIAM

In Remembrance of

BLAIR SCOTT BORLAND Who passed away at age 37 on November 15th 2012 Do not stand at my grave and sigh I’m not there, I did not die. I am the blossoms on the apple trees I am the roar of the raging seas I am the hawk shrieking in flight I am the twinkling stars at night, I am the sparkle on virgin snow I am the gentle winds that blow I am the loons haunting call, I am the oak tree standing tall By quiet waters my God is near I am the swift up-springing deer, Do not stand at my grave and mourn I’m not there, I’ve been reborn.

Always in our hearts, love Mom, Pops, Gina & Shae
