Downtown plans include tech centre Alina Konevski

MISSION RECORD

Although the final tenants of the district’s new downtown building are still to be confirmed, officials have major plans for 7337 Welton Street – including creating a technological centre of excellence, housing the B.C. Winter Games, and potentially even moving some District of Mission functions to the building. The district purchased the approximate 11,000 sq. ft. building – central to the district’s downtown revitalization plan – for $1.95 million in December. Just an hour after officially taking possession of the former Buy-Low Foods building on Friday, Mayor Ted Adlem cut the red ribbon during an opening ceremony and staff, councillors, and members of the public wandered the spartan rooms and strategized how best to use them. Downtown business association board president Carlo Billinger congratulated the councillors on the purchase on Friday. “There’s a lot of talk in the past, but you guys are the first ones that actually made the difference ... It’s a courageous step to take, because you have to justify what you’re doing, and I believe … we can come up with a long-term plan that will show the people that this was a right decision to do. Great big thank you for stepping to the plate.” The first new tenant will be the B.C. Winter Games, which will stage its command centre in the front 5,266 sq. ft. space from next week through to the games themselves from Feb. 20 to 23. The building’s sole existing tenant, the Fraser Valley Child Development Centre, will remain in the back 3,000 sq. ft., out of which

the non-profit provides services to children with developmental needs. Other plans are less solidified, with district officials actively negotiating to bring exciting new tenants to the space. The first is to set up a technological centre of excellence in the front of the building. The centre – a brand new concept for Mission – would be an incubation facility for emerging information and communications technology (ICT) companies, where the companies would receive help from the non-profit Sumas Regional Consortium of High Tech in commercializing and marketing their products. A study by Mission’s Economic Development Select Committee identified ICT as a niche opportunity for the city a few years back. Tech companies are growing, have CARLO BILLINGER a low resource footprint, and provide high-paying jobs, explained Stacey Crawford, economic development officer with the District of Mission. At the same time, Mission provides a location that is more affordable than other tech enclaves in the Lower Mainland, such as Burnaby and Surrey, while being close enough to a major commercial centre, Vancouver. Crawford admits it is a leap of faith, but “we do believe we have the environment that these specialists tend to want to be around and live in, and we are taking advantage of that.” The district is in talks with Ray Szabada, president of i-Open Technologies and one of the pioneers behind the tech centre of excellence idea, to move his company to 7337 Welton St. as early as July. If the deal is

Political bloc splinters With three of seven Mission councillors off political slate, the value of the association is being questioned Alina Konevski MISSION RECORD

Last week, just nine months away from another municipal election, two Mission district councillors resigned from the political slate under which all councillors were elected in 2011. Couns. Jeff Jewell and Jenny Stevens have quit Citizens for Responsible Municipal Government (CRMG), following the precedent set by Coun. Nelson Tilbury when he left CRMG in September 2011. All current district councillors came to power under the banner of the CRMG. They pooled campaign resources and presented a united front to the electorate, which catapulted the individual candidates to victory. At the district council meeting on Feb. 3, Stevens spoke about how proud she was of this council’s accomplishments, and lamented the fracturing of the political association into which she put so much effort. The next district election is scheduled for this November. With three of seven councillors off the CRMG team, the councillors looking at re-election will need to decide their strategy. Tilbury believes that candidates are weaker running as independents. “By putting seven heads together, when you go out and campaign, you can have seven people campaign in seven places at once. You can have a fraction of the money spent on signs … on advertising. It becomes very powerful and very effective… To go into a thing like that, it’s

almost like discussions.” Coun. Tony putting yourLuck isn’t sure self up against that CRMG has a machine.

that while he was sad to see Jewell and Stevens resign, he sees no reason to question his own commitment to CRMG. Coun. Dave Hensman – who has been the subject of recent conflict of interest allegations, an issue that factored into both Stevens’ and Jewell’s resignations from CRMG – told the Record that CRMG remains strong and that there are already several potential replacement members identified. “This has not weakened the resolve of CRMG. This has simply strengthened it… There are many people in the District of Mission that believe in what we’re doing and great candidates that want to run with us and we’re excited about the future with those great candidates.” Mayor Ted Adlem could not be reached for comment.

Legal view: Strong chance conflict application would fail Three councillors maintain review was incomplete and question remains unresolved MISSION RECORD

A legal opinion obtained by the District of Mission regarding recent conflict of interest allegations surrounding Coun. Dave Hensman concluded that the case of a conflict was not clear and obvious, and that there was a very strong chance that an application to resolve the matter in B.C. Supreme Court would fail. Hensman and Mayor Ted Adlem have referenced the legal opinion – a summary of which was released Monday at council – when explaining why they voted against sending the issue to B.C. Supreme Court on Jan. 20. Coun. Nelson Tilbury has alleged that Hensman was in a conflict of interest on two occasions in December. First, when he voted on the district’s purchase of 7337 Welton St. while holding a lease to another downtown property. And second, when he participated in a discussion about changing the permitted uses in the downtown core to include churches, while serving as pastor for a local faith group. In a summation of the legal opinion, the district’s chief administrative officer Ken Bjorgaard wrote in a letter to council that “there are no facts that show the district’s purchase of the downtown prop-

erty has changed the values in the downtown core or affected the profitability of Coun. Hensman’s business. “The case law on this point is clear, and says that there must be facts to support an allegation of conflict of interest: it cannot be based on speculation or suspicion,” Bjorgaard’s letter stated. On the second matter, the legal opinion was that Hensman “might be perceived to be in a conflict of interest because he is a pastor,” Bjorgaard wrote. However, the opinion concluded that Hensman’s explanation of

the matter – that he merely pointed out an inconsistency in the definitions of “cultural assembly use” in a staff report about permitted downtown uses – “would likely be accepted by a court as falling within the defence of ‘inadvertence and an error in judgment made in good faith’ set out in section 101(3) of the Community Charter.” At the Feb. 3 council meeting, Couns. Jeff Jewell, Jenny Stevens, and Tilbury challenged the legal opinion because they did not know what evidence was provided to the

lawyer. Jewell said it was an “incomplete review of the case,” while Stevens said she could not give the opinion “real weight.” “The lawyers received no supporting information because no investigation took place. The lawyers correctly stated the legal opinion based on the information received. If the lawyer receives no information, then the legal opinion would be flawed,” said Tilbury, who initially alleged on Jan. 6 that Hensman was in a conflict. Tilbury said that the legal opinion was

HOME MADE MEALS AWAY FROM HOME Fresh, local ingredients.

designed to “make the events insignificant” when they are not. Stevens maintained that the allegation of a conflict of interest has not been resolved. Coun. Larry Nundal – who voted alongside Hensman and Adlem in rejecting a motion to

send the allegation to B.C. Supreme Court – defended Hensman. “First of all, the councillor has a lease with a first right of refusal (to purchase). And to me, if property values are going to go up, it would appear that he’s going to have to pay more for

the property. I don’t see where that’s in anybody’s interest…” Nundal noted that were the public so concerned about the matter, it only takes 10 citizens to form a group that can present the case to the Supreme Court.

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

QUESTION OF THE WEEK

Judgment costly to taxpayers Nothing else in the lengthy ruling, other than a suggestion that cabinet documents back up this assertion, offers any proof. Those cabinet documents have not been released, but were used as evidence in the trial. The class size and composition provisions were inserted in a contract imposed by the former NDP government on school boards. They had resisted, fearing that the rigid guidelines would make it very difficult to properly staff classrooms. In fact, what happened is that classrooms which were one student over the limit were sometimes split in two, or the extra student was transported to another school. While this certainly benefited teachers, its impact on students was questionable. There is no doubt that if classes are too large, it has an impact on how students learn. And the number of special needs students in a classroom must be at a manageable level. But hard and fast limits, imposed by a judge, will be costly to taxpayers, and have limited benefit for students. – Black Press

A court decision last week awarding the B.C. Teachers Federation $2 million in damages, and ordering a return to class size and composition provisions in a teachers’ contract from almost 15 years ago, is almost certain to lead to political strife. Some estimates suggest the cost of the judgment to taxpayers could total $1 billion. If that indeed is the case, the provincial government had to appeal. The ruling by B.C. Supreme Court Justice Susan Griffin speculated (because there is no hard evidence on the record, due to cabinet confidentiality) that the provincial government deliberately stalled on renegotiating the class size and composition provisions with the BCTF in 2011. Griffin was the author of an earlier court ruling calling for new legislation within a year. In her ruling, she stated “(Negotiators’) strategy was to put such pressure on the union that it would provoke a strike by the union. The government representatives thought this would give government the opportunity to gain political support for imposing legislation on the union.”

End this bloody B.C. school war Tom Fletcher

B.C. Views There are two reasons why the B.C. government must appeal the latest court ruling that damns its conduct, assesses damages of $2 million plus lawyer bills and appears to hand the B.C. Teachers’ Federation the keys to the treasury. The first is practical politics. The legislature reopens Feb. 11, ironically right after Family Day. An appeal will give rookie Education Minister Peter Fassbender the cover he will need during the daily 30 minutes of sniper fire that is Question Period. Rise. “It’s before the courts, Madam Speaker.” Sit. Even the trigger-happy Premier Christy Clark will be staying in her trench, after the bleeding wound she received from Justice Susan Griffin last week. The second reason is practical economics. The 2014 budget has gone to press. Gov-

ernment lawyers told the court that retroactively returning to 2001 classroom rules could cost $500 million, an estimate Griffin dismissed as “speculative.” It could include compensation to retired teachers for earnings they gave up. This retroactive lump would be on top of the ongoing costs, running to hundreds of millions more as 60 school districts try to reassemble the world of 2002. This union victory began when the Supreme Court of Canada invented a constitutional right to collective bargaining in 2007, based on “freedom of association” in the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. The BCTF is piggy-backing on that landmark decision, in favour of the Hospital Employees’ Union, after Gordon Campbell ran roughshod over their sweetheart contract from the Glen Clark years. That one was settled for $85 million, including retroactive payments. In case there are parents and taxpayers who still believe that all would be calm had the NDP won the 2013 election, allow me to put that to rest. NDP leader Adrian Dix took to his Facebook page a couple of days after last week’s

ruling, joining calls for an apology from Clark. That would be for what Justice Griffin characterized as deliberately provoking a strike to build public support for the latest

Both sides need to cease fire. of a long line of settlements imposed on teachers. Within minutes, Dix received this caustic response from Tara Ehrcke, president of the Greater Victoria teachers’ union. “But where was the NDP during the election campaign?” Ehrcke asked Dix. “You committed a measly $100 million – a third of what it will take to restore class sizes and less than the [NDP] platform in 2009, and only pocket change more than the Liberals’ Learning Improvement Fund of $75 million.” Note the mindset of this prominent member of the radical fringe that controls the BCTF. “A measly $100 million.” An extra $25

million? “Pocket change.” This is the same union boss who demanded that hundreds of teachers be hired this week, so reorganizing current classes in the middle of the school year to make them smaller by one or two students. Parents and students would endure yet another major disruption of the public school system. And who needs an increase in rural ambulance service or drug and alcohol treatment for street kids. Let’s get those teacher-librarians back in schools, and slightly reduce class sizes to offset declining enrolment! No government, B.C. Liberal, NDP or Green Party, can let its unions control their own payroll, just as no private company can. That goes double for this union, which had its own obvious role in provoking an illegal strike in 2012. It made outrageous benefit demands and cancelled extra-curriculars for months before it even specified its wage demand. Bargaining, if you can call it that, resumes this week. Both sides need to cease fire. Tom Fletcher is legislative reporter and columnist for Black Press and BCLocalnews.com tfletcher@blackpress.ca

ife gets busy sometimes and spending time with loved ones can become difficult. Family Day, taking place Feb. 10, is the perfect reason to gather the family and take in some of British Columbia’s best attractions. Start with Big White Ski Resort, just outside of Kelowna. “There’s something for everyone here,” says Katie Balkwill, regional sales manager for Big White Ski Resort. “We’re Canada’s largest ski-in ski-out resort. Anywhere you wake up, you’ll be on the slopes, and the quality of our snow is amazing.” Black Press readers can enter to win a weekend for four (two adults and two children under 18) at Big White Ski Resort, ights with lift passes and two nights side accommodation in a slopeside rmahotel room. For more information, visit your local Black Press n paper’s website and click on the contests link. n Big White is about more than skiing and snowboarding though. Balkwill also notes that they have an ice-climbingg tower, fireworks every Saturday night overr ny the huge outdoor skating rink and many other activities for the whole family. On Feb. 10, B.C. residents will bee able to purchase a single-day lift tickoket for 50 per cent off. If you’re lookh ing for a weekend getaway, British Columbians can book any two consecutive nights and two days of skiing, and Big White will give you the third night and third day of skiing at half-price, valid between Feb. 7 and Feb. 13. The Lower Mainland is home to plenty of family-friendly outdoor spots, including Granville Island, numerous beaches and parks. If it’s indoor fun you’re looking for, attractions such as the H.R. MacMillan Space Centre, the Museum of Vancouver, Science World at the Telus World of Science, the Vancouver Aquarium and the Vancouver Art Gallery should all be tops on your list.

Outdoor activities are also plentiful in B.C. Capilano Suspension Bridge Park is one of Vancouver’s most well-known attractions, with its famous suspension bridge, Treetops Adventure, Cliffwalk and other places to explore. The North Shore mountains all offer a variety of activities, including skiing, snowboarding, snowshoeing and tobogganing, or you can go a bit farther afield to visit Whistler Blackcomb. On B.C. Family Day, lift tickets at many participating ski areas will be offered to B.C. residents at 50 per cent off. For more information and the list of participating resorts, visit www.skicanada. org. B.C. has more than 850 parks and natural areas to hike in, including Vancouver Island’s West Coast Trail. Provincial parks are often host to several hiking trails, or check out the Sunshine Coast Trail or Juan de Fuca Marine Trail.

Bu Budd ddin ing equestrians or cowboys might enjoy a Budding d at one off B.C.’s ’ ranches, h whether h h it’s ’ a traill ride weekend trip in B.C.’s Interior or a day trip just outside of Metro Vancouver. In Northern B.C., climbing and caving can take place all year-round at one of the local mountain ranges. Guided tours are often available to show you some truly beautiful scenery, from glaciers to frozen waterfalls. Dog-sledding, cross-country skiing and snowshoeing are also great pursuits to try. The Southern and Northern Gulf Islands are just a ferry ride away from the mainland, and can open up a brand-new world of hiking, cycling and other outdoor activities.

Stó:lo language joins regular curriculum inal. Halq’eméylem, the traditional language of the Stó:lo people, will become a regular class subject for all of the school’s kindergarten to Grade 6 students starting this month. The 30-45 minute classes, led by teacher Peter Lindley, will be on Mondays and Fridays during regular class time, and families and community members are welcome to participate as well. “We feel often it was the relatives that were in the residential school, and they weren’t able to pass down that language, and so we feel this is an opportunity

to regain some of that for these families,” said McLeod. During a naming ceremony at Deroche on Tuesday, where Lindley gave students and staff a Halq’eméylem translation of their English names, he spoke about what an achievement it was just to find common linguistic ground. Halq’eméylem dialects vary widely, with people from Chehalis to Chilliwack to Coquitlam all speaking different versions.

Feedback from parents on the language classes has been overwhelmingly positive, with many approaching Deroche staff to express how glad and excited they were that Halq’eméylem is finally coming to the school. McLeod compared the compulsory second language instruction to students having a mandatory French class in other school districts. “We do have 30 per cent of the population that is non-aborigi-

nal, but again, learning a second language is great. Learning structures of language, learning syntax … are excellent,” she said. McLeod sees the move as another important step towards building trust and reconciliation in Mission. “There’s a lot of history in our First Nations people that a lot of time people want to brush under, but we’re always in a position of building trust among our families,” said McLeod.

signed, it would mean an immediate injection of a couple of dozen employees into the downtown. Another vision for 7337 Welton St. is to establish a small university campus in part of the building, ideally with the University of the Fraser Valley. “They (UFV) are very favourable in looking at making a campus downtown,” said Mayor Ted Adlem at the town hall on Jan. 30. A more longer-term idea is relocating some District of Mission functions to the downtown. “I think probably members of council that are here would agree with me that it might be a cool idea to have a District of Mission presence ... so that we can actually say, ‘We’re really downtown and we want to do something,’” said Adlem on Friday.

The ILM project is a new 247 kilometre 500 kilovolt transmission line between Merritt and Coquitlam that will expand the electrical system so that BC Hydro can continue to deliver clean and reliable energy to homes and businesses in the Lower Mainland and Vancouver Island.

Man approaches two women at mall Police are investigating two reports of a suspicious man approaching women at the Junction Mall Jan. 26. Shortly before 9 p.m., Mounties received a call from a woman in the mall parking lot. She reported she was in her vehicle when an unknown man came up to the car and motioned with his hand that he wanted her cellphone. She refused, then he tapped on the window with a dark object, which the female thought was a handgun, and proceeded to drive away, said Mission RCMP. Police were notified of a second incident a few minutes later. In this occurrence, a woman was parking when a man approached her door and said he had an emerg ency and needed to use her cellphone. After she said no, the man tried the door handle. No threat was made, said Wright, and the man then ran off. The man is described as standing between 5’8” to 6’0” with a heavy build, wearing a white and black jacket, a black toque or balaclava and carrying a black umbrella. Woman charged with robbery with a firearm A woman is in custody following an armed robbery Friday afternoon on Grand Street. Around 3 p.m. Jan. 31, a woman walked into Stiletto Hair Studio, approached the counter and pointed what appeared to be a black handgun at a customer and an employee and demanded money. The suspect reached

into the till and found no cash, then tried to take a customer’s purse which led to a brief struggle, said Mission RCMP. The suspect got away with an iPhone and left the gun behind, which police later discovered was a painted toy. A police dog

found a suspect a short distance from the studio, lying in the bushes. She was arrested and remanded into custody. Mission resident Amanda Bermingham, 23, was charged with robbery with a firearm. At the time of her arrest, Bermingham

was wanted on an outstanding warrant in Ontario for 19 offences related to property crimes and failing to comply with court orders. If you have information about either of these matters, call 604-826-7161, or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

Patient Testimonial

Prior to being a patient with Dr’s Surdhar and Lui, I’d have described myself as an “apprehensive” patient. The one that wishes the upcoming circled date on the calendar was past. After a few procedures with the dentists at Bridgeview Dental I can happily say that I no longer dread the upcoming appointments and look forward to seeing the friendly dental team and having my dental work done. Even a recent extraction and implant that followed was without discomfort. I feel confident in the treatment they provide me knowing they keep up with what’s new in the dental field with their continuing education and study club participation. Heather

Carriers campaign to stop Canada Post service cuts Alina Konevski MISSION RECORD

The national fight to keep Canada Post’s (CP) tradition of doorto-door mail delivery arrived in Mission last Wednesday afternoon. Four letter carriers, current and retired, stood in front of the First Avenue post office asking residents to sign a petition calling on the federal government to reverse the cuts to CP services. The petition is organized by the Canadian Union of Postal Workers. Within a few hours, 47 signatures were col-

lected. CP is fazing out home delivery over the next five years, opting for community mailboxes instead. The Crown corporation will also require 8,000 fewer postal workers, which it will lose by attrition, and it will raise the price of stamps. The reforms are expected to save money after CP reported a loss before tax of $129 million for the third quarter of 2013. Although demand for parcel mail has grown, it has not overcome declines in letter mail.

Deroche resident Angel Hoare, who organized the Mission campaign and whose carrier route skirts the district, is concerned the cuts will mean seniors will have difficulty accessing their mail if it’s not home-delivered. She also notes community mailboxes are not secure enough, and that the community aspect of home delivery is taken away.

“If I don’t see a couple of seniors on my route, for instance, I will knock on their door and say, ‘You OK, Mr. Brown? I haven’t seen you in a couple of days.’ … You’re part of the community,” said Hoare. The campaigners argue that CP is in much better financial shape than perceived, and that it has made a profit in 17 of the last 18 years.

From right: Deroche letter carrier Angel Hoare, Port Coquitlam carrier Elaina Zogas, and two retired carriers collect signatures in Mission to protest cuts to Canada Post services. ALINA KONEVSKI PHOTO “There’s no reason for any of these cuts. If the government is serious about their job creation plan, they should be

looking at extending door-to-door service to people who are getting their mail from community mailboxes,” said

campaigner and Maple Ridge resident Ed Nicholles, who retired from 32 years as a carrier with CP.

MODESTY IN AN IMMODEST WORLD

WAS $44,000

NOW

We live in a world that is immodest in so many ways. Some athletes and performers boast immodestly of their skill and prowess in ways which would make the humbler athletes and performers of bygone eras blush. But, we are also immodest in a more literal and physical way, that is, by how much of our bodies we put on display. A hundred years ago, ladies and gentlemen considered it unseemly if they were not covered almost literally from the neck down. Now it seems that necklines and waistlines have plunged to the point where very little is left to the imagination. We seem to have no shame about displaying body parts that just a generation ago would have been mortifying. We should consider what it means to live and dress modestly in an immodest world. In the midst of others flaunting their bodies and screaming from the rooftops how great they are, a modest person will truly stand out as a moral exemplar.

A Mission couple are finalists in the It’s My Wedding contest in which voting ends on Saturday. Mission’s Abigail Shakespeare and Sarah Woodland have been together since 2011 and they believe they’re one of the only same-sex couples to have made it to the finals in this type of competition, which relies on votes through Facebook to capture the $75,000 grand prize. As of The Record’s press deadline, Abigail and Sarah were in second place out of five couples, with 7,251 votes. The first place couple, Chantelle (who

was born in Mission) and Matt, currently has 11,677. The couple met in the summer of 2011 and the relationship quickly grew to the point where Sarah proposed to Abigail Dec. 31, 2012 during a trip to Big White in Kelowna. They entered the contest during the It’s My Wedding event Jan. 4-5 at Tradex. The grand prize includes a dress, venue, DJ and other items coming from event sponsors. You can vote via facebook.com/itsmyweddingfv. Voting runs until Feb. 8 at midnight and you can vote once per day.

Mission school district struggles to raise six-year completion rates Alina KONEVSKI MISSION RECORD

SO FT BA LL .M Y

At the same time, the Grade 7 reading and numeracy test scores have been declining for five years. Grade 10 students are also scoring below provincial average on English, science, and math. Fletcher noted that the three new programs created last year – the Fraserview Learning Centre, the District Elementary Inclusive Support Program, the District Social Development Program – are seeing success in supporting vulnerable learners. “We continue to be encouraged by the positive trends seen in the diminishing achievement gap between our aboriginal and non-aboriginal learners in many

areas as well as the consistently strong results for all students in many areas,” Fletcher noted in the report. “We are encouraged by our Grade 7 to Grade 8 transition. Despite some modest gains in results in areas of literacy and numeracy, the data indicates a need to continue to focus on our Grade 9 to Grade 12 transitions as well as supporting our secondary students on their path to graduation.”

The Mission school district is making headway on raising the proportion of aboriginal students that graduate high school, but overall six-year graduation levels are stagnant. In his annual report on achievement released in January, superintendent Bill Fletcher indicated the six-year completion rate for aboriginal students rose by 15 per cent in four years, to 68 per cent in 2012-13, nine points above the provincial average. There are also significant improvements in completion rates for students with special needs as well as those with

behavioural difficulties. About half of students with behavioural disabilities graduate high school, higher than the provincial average. Over the last two years, the district launched several programs to support vulnerable students, including hiring a counselling team and behavioural specialists. However, 77 per cent of Mission students are completing school, a figure below the 84 per cent provincial average and one that has not improved noticeably in five years. Grade 4 reading levels have improved, and reached the provincial average for the 2012-13 year.

Welcome to the driver’s seat

Honda knows how to make a good, solid car—and for 2014—things just got a little more interesting. Zack Spencer

Visit the 2014 Honda Civic gallery at DrivewayBC.ca

From rather ordinary to rather extraordinary Tampa, Florida – Being the best at something is an achievement, and doing it repeatedly is impressive. The Honda Civic’s 16-year streak as the best selling passenger car in Canada is nothing short of astounding. For the introduction the 2014 Civic, Honda chose usually sunny and hot Tampa, to introduce their latest update. It was sunny but anything from hot, with overnight temperatures near freezing. Honda has been improving the Civic continuously since the 7th generation model was introduced as a 2012 model. Last year, for 2013, they updated the styling, handling and interior of the 2013 model and now for 2014 they are at it again. Looks The styling focus for 2014 is on the coupe. Roughly 15 per cent of all Civics are sold as a coupe, the most dominant player in the small coupe market. Last year, this sedan received updates to the front and rear styling to help make it look more upscale and sophisticated, and this year the coupe gets a similar update to the front and back, but the changes are meant to provide a sportier look with a bit more aggression. The most aggressive version of both

the sedan and coupe is the SI model that gets an even more forceful grille and front bumper design plus a rear spoiler and lower air diffuser. Wheel sizes have also changed with the regular coupe receiving 16-inch wheels, up from 15-inches, and the SI now bumps the size from 17-inches to 18-inches.

addition, the front seats are very supportive and the steering wheel is low and small for a racy feel. What is new for both the sedan and this coupe is the introduction of Display Audio system that is available From fuel on the EX and Touring economy to reliability, models. This is a large iPad-like touch-screen resale value, cost design that lets the driver of ownership and access many functions Inside sportiness the 2014 from the radio to apps One of the reasons that Honda Civic is a good that piggyback off your the Civic is the best iPhone. (No Android apps selling car in Canada is choice yet but they are working the practical, yet sporty Zack Spencer on this.) This taps into the interior in both the sedan power of your phone, in and coupe. Many people, the big screen, with full including me, didn’t integration. I liked the speed and funcinitially like the split dash with the tion of the design but really missed a speedometer on the top and the tarotary dial to adjust the volume over a chometer on the bottom, but over time touch screen volume design. Yes, there this design has proven to be a winner. is a volume control on the steering I was wrong.

economy. The small one is the exhaust system has been adjusted in both the sedan and coupe to let the engine breath better, improving horsepower slightly from 140hp to 143hp. The big change is the introduction of an inhouse continuously variable transmission (CVT), replacing the old 5-speed automatic. This actually makes this little car more drivable and might be the best CVT on the market. The car snaps away from a stop and cruises with ease on the highway, with quick changes

in the gear ratio that helps mimic a conventional automatic design. In addition, there is a sport mode and paddle shifters on the steering wheel to help liven things up. Honda has done a first rate job here and their efforts have been rewarded with a six per cent improvement in city fuel economy and an overall drop from 6.2L/100km combined to 6.0L, something very hard to do with such a small car. The driving dynamics of the Civic has always been very good due to a fully independent suspension and willing engine. The 143hp is a nice match for this car and the CVT is a great complement. The 5-speed manual is a blast to drive but it could use a 6th gear on the highway, as the high-revving engine can get noisy. The steering is crisp and the car overall instills a high level of confidence. Verdict Honda admits that their Civic might not be the top choice in every reason to buy a compact car but they are near the top in all categories. From fuel economy to reliability, resale value, cost of ownership and sportiness this car is a good choice. The many improvements made to the car over the past three-model-years, has taken the Civic from rather ordinary to rather extraordinary. They know how to make a good, solid, reliable car and for 2014 things just a little bit more interesting. The Lowdown Power: 1.8L 4-cylinder with 143hp or 2.4L with 205hp Fill-up: 6.7L/5.0L/100km (city/highway) Sticker price: $15,690-$26,655

Picture this: You’re a teenager with a driver’s licence, your wealthy parents have left you alone for the day and there has just been a huge snowfall. Turns out, they decided to take the SUV, and the Porsche Carrera 4S is sitting all by its lonesome in the garage. All your friends are busy so you’ll need to make your own fun today. But how? The key to this stellar coupe, which generally remains under armoured guard, somehow surfaces. Then you hear a voice calling your name. You look around and wonder if you’re imagining things or if the milk you drank for breakfast had expired. You look down and the key fob is speaking to you. Through its German accent you decipher words like, “traction control off,” “sliding sideways,” “car control,” and the best of all, “you

won’t get in trouble.” Then giddiness overcomes your body. Your eyes widen. Your smile is uncontrollable. Before you know it you’re nestled cozily in the heated sport driver’s seat, looking where you want to go and having the time of your life; sliding sideways on a snow and ice track in a $140,000 sports car. Life is wunderbar. The best part about this teenage dream is that it’s not a teenage dream. It’s a reality. For those wanting to learn car control on a designated ice/snow track, it’s entirely possible thanks to Porsche’s Camp4 training school. The track’s location is less than a couple of hours outside of Montreal, Quebec at Mecaglisse. It’s a playground for the German automaker’s rear-wheel drive 911 Carrera S and Cayman, along with the all-wheel drive 911 Carrera 4S. You’ll have the opportunity

Whether you are learning how to control over and understeer on the oval, or learning how to appropriately kick the back end out by blipping the throttle at the slalom, chances are, you’ll have a grin on your face the whole time. And if you spin out, you just keep going. The program commences with a driver’s briefing and drivers are introduced to their instructors. Proper seating position is explained and then it’s time to hit the track. Exercises are done with two people to each car, and each Porsche is equipped with radios that are linked together.

originated in Finland in 1996 and has since been executed around the world. It’s hard to believe how much you can learn in such a short amount of time. And how much your face will hurt afterwards! That’s not even because of subzero temperatures. The cost of Camp4 is $5,195 (plus applicable taxes.) That includes three nights accommodation at The Esterel Suites & Spa (a luxury hotel in a nearby area) two full days of driving and all your meals and transfers from the track. As I said, even if you mess up, you keep going. And no, you won’t get in trouble for having fun. It’s part of the learning experience.

pointers while they observe what’s going on. Sometimes you get praise. Sometimes you get constructive criticism. It’s just part of the process. Two major points that were stressed in any of the exercises were: look where you want to go not where you are going and the tires can only do one job at a time. The latter means that if you are trying to brake and turn in tandem, chances are you won’t have the maximum amount of traction, and therefore, you can upset the balance of the car and possibly not execute the manoeuvre you were trying to do. Even if you do make a mistake, you just dust off the snow and try again. The Camp4 program

Light emitting diode (LED) lights are slowly taking over the automotive industry. These lights are made from extremely small semiconductor diodes that are capable of creating bright light. They work very similarly to standard lights but instead of a filament, an LED creates light using nothing but the movement of electricity along the path of its semiconductor. As the electrons stream across the semiconductor, they create electromagnetic radiation. Some forms of this electromagnetic radiation can take the form of light. LED lights are becoming increasing popular these days on trucks. Gone are the days of putting the highest wattage sealed beam lamps you could find, often referred to as airplane landing lights, on your bumper or

these lights cost $219. E-series lights are LED light bars that come in various lengths. The 4” E-series light is available in a flood or spot pattern that has an amp draw of 1.18 and a life span over 50,000 hours. Cost is $258. The 6” E-series light is available in a flood, spot, or a combo. It also has a 50,000-plus hours life span and draws 1.77 amps. For some serious amount of light, there are the 30”, 40” and 50” light bars that have an unbreakable polycarbonate lens and are available in a spot, flood, or a combo. The 50” light bar gives off enough light to reach distances of 1,497 metres. Prices range from $1,099 to $1,759. Finding a place to mount them to your truck can pose a challenge. There are some vehicle-specific brackets but generally, you have to get

also popular on the big and small screen. Here are five fine examples. 1. 1973 Ford F-250 (“The Blues Brothers”): After stiffing the proprietor of Bob’s Country Bunker on

a huge bar tab, Jake and Elwood Blues take off in the Bluesmobile with “The Good Ole Boys” — the country and western act that they’d impersonated at said bar — in hot pursuit.

(“Green Acres”): The muchloved CBS comedy featured a then-new red 1967 Ford Bronco as the official vehicle of scatter-brained county agent Hank Kimball, usually seen driven around Hooterville and the Douglas farm (minus doors and top). For most of its run, “Green Acres” was sponsored by the Ford Motor Company, so the Bronco’s frequent appearances were no surprise. 3. 1972 Chevrolet C-10 (“Dazed and Confused”): The 1993 Richard Linklater high school cult classic that was set in the mid-1970s featured what appeared to be a 1972 Chevy C-10 pickup in Cheyenne trim. It was driven by paddle-wielding upper-classman Benny O’Donnell (played by Cole Hauser), who freshmen encountered at their peril.

4. 1999 Ford F-150 SVT Lightning (“The Fast and the Furious”): Lead actor Paul Walker drove this very special Ford pickup. Produced by Ford’s Special Vehicles Team, the 1999 Lightning featured a supercharged 5.4-litre V-8 that produced 360 hp. It was used as a parts getter in the first of the Fast and Furious movies. 5. 1973 Ford F-100 (“The Dukes of Hazzard”): Yeah, it’s a shock, there were pickup trucks featured in the “Dukes of Hazzard.” Uncle Jesse always seemed to have a semi-ratty white Ford pickup. Most of the time it was a ’73 F-100 but in early episodes, he could be seen with a 1968 Ford stepside pickup and in later ones, a late 1970s F-250.

Second gen Mazda3 was a zoom-zoom hit with Canadians and on TV Mazda3 2010 to 2013 The new generation Mazda3 launched in 2010 was an immediate hit with Canadian compact car buyers. The car, available as a sedan or five-door hatchback, is a nicely proportioned car with curvy styling lines, more defined front fenders and a distinctive (happy face) front air take. The zoom-zoom mind-set may not be used in the advertising today but it is still very much alive at Mazda and my enthusiastic assessment following a first drive was that it was the most refined compact car I’ve ever driven. This generation Mazda3 initially came in three trim levels GX, GS and GT. There’s also a high-performance edition called Mazdaspeed3. A hood scoop, which directs air flow to a turbocharged engine intercooler, gives the Madaspeed3 a more distinctive frontal appearance. Regardless of price, trim or potency, core elements of this ‘3’ are its light yet rock-solid body platform, combined with a sport-minded engineering theme. Its lighter and stiffer chassis has more highstrength steel and other enhancements to reduce body flex and combined with suspension changes the result is a tighter and better handling car. The GX and GS trim levels come with a 148-horsepower 2.0-litre engine that provides a nice balance of power and fuel economy, which is 8.1/5.9 L/100 km (city/highway). The GT comes with a 2.5-litre that can deliver 167 horsepower and it gets 9.2/6.8 L/100 km (city/highway). Mazda3, which was first launched in 2003, has been consistently one of the best selling cars in Canada and the Mazdaspeed3 variant typically accounts for less than two per cent of sales. That certainly makes it a harder car to find on the used car market and while prices generally tend to be premium they also vary considerably depending on condition and history. This generation Mazdaspeed3 is a more refined

high-performer. It offers a more controlled unleashing of power from its turbocharged engine, yet it is still an extremely fast car. Changes to its driveshafts were designed to reduce torque steer (which still exists) and a torque-sensing limited-slip differential was added to the drivetrain. Mazda claims a top speed of 250 km/h and zero to100 km/h time of 6.1 seconds. Engine output (263-horsepower) is the same as the 2009, however it provides a more progressive release of torque that peeks at 3000 rpm and 280 lb-ft of torque is available. Its fuel consumption rate is also faster at 11.5/8.0 L/100 km (city/highway). Inside there’s enough room for four, maybe five, adults provided those up front are willing to share leg room. There’s more cargo room in the hatchback, however, the added security offered by the sedan’s trunk might be preferred and used prices tend to be lower. The only significant change in 2011 was the inclusion

of electronic stability and traction control as standard on all models. The 2012 model year brought the introduction of Mazda’s “Skyactiv” performance and fuel-saving technologies, offered initially on the mid-range GS trim line. A direct-injected 2.0L engine is mated to either a special 6-speed manual or a 6-speed automatic

transmission. It also got a mild exterior and interior restyling job that included an updated (subdued happy-face) front grille. Mazda3 is highly rated by Consumer Reports for dependability, offers great value for the money and can certainly be one of the better buys on the used car market.

TILBURY

Joyce Winona Dittaro (nee Murray) Joyce passed away peacefully on February 3, 2014, at the age of 89. She is survived by her brother Bruce Murray, her daughters Wendy and Christine, and son David, plus numerous grandchildren, greatgrandchildren, nieces, nephews and a large extended family. Joyce was predeceased by her eldest daughter Patricia Jill and her husbands Enzo Dittaro and Larry Tilbury. Joyce was a loving, independent and determined friend to many, as demonstrated by her years of volunteer work with local community talent shows, her work with the Canadian Legion and her friendship to all those around her. Proficient and talented at the piano, Joyce often accompanied Klondike Kate during Edmonton’s Klondike Days celebrations. She and husband Enzo and their small band of musicians also entertained dance crowds for many years. Joyce enjoyed sewing, she loved a good joke, an occasional pint with friends or family, and throughout her life she could always find the good in people she knew or met. Favorite topics of discussion included: Toronto Blue-Jays, the latest novel she had read and televised legal trials (yes, especially O.J.)! Joyce was proud to have lived in Fort Frances, Thunder Bay, Edmonton, Innisfail and Abbotsford. She could call all them home. We would like to thank the staff at Menno Home for their care and compassion; as well as the heart-warming support offered by family and friends. As per Joyce’s wish she has gifted her physical remains to research and asks that if any desire to please donate to Alzheimer’s Society of Canada www.giving.med. ubc.ca or University of British Columbia Research www. alzheimer.ca/en. We know she sends all of you her love!
