SERVING MISSION SINCE 1908

Seniors targeted Retromania by ‘stranded motorist’ scam Two Mission residents fall victim Jason ROESSLE ABBOTSFORD NEWS

Mission’s Edith Veltin came home late last week after running some errands and noticed a car parked in front of her home. The vehicle’s hood was up, and the driver said his car’s radiator had overheated and needed some water. Veltin obliged and filled up a couple of jugs of water for the “stranded” motorist. In that short time span, the man stole Veltin’s purse, somehow deciphered her PIN number and made two $400 withdrawls. Earlier in the day, another Mission senior was also targeted by the same scam. The woman lives on Best Avenue, but requested anonymit. She said a couple and a child were parked in her lower driveway, claiming their radiator was dry and they needed water. She pointed them to the hose at the side of the house, but the man said he needed warm water. The senior, sympathizing with these people with a young child, went into her kitchen to fill some containers. Similar to the other incident, while the homeowner

was busy, the suspect stole the woman’s purse. These crimes are similar to ones reported late last year in Mission, Abbotsford and Chilliwack. Mission RCMP are aware of the situation, and said all incidents have occurred in residential neighbourhoods, and the victims are typically approached when they are returning home. The suspect claims car trouble, needing water for the radiator. The suspect often offers to help the victim carry groceries or other items and waits at the entrance of the residence while the target gets the requested water. Different descriptions have been provided for the suspect vehicle involved in each theft. Police caution people to be vigilant for suspicious activity and unfamiliar people hanging around their neighbourhood. Police also remind the public not to allow strangers into their homes and to keep their doors locked at all times. Anyone with information should call 604-826-7161. If you wish to remain anonymous call Crime Stoppers at 1-800222-8477.

Retromania at the Clarke Theatre Friday night drew nearly a full house. A number of tribute bands covered music from Fleetwood Mac, Rod Stewart and ABBA. The final performance of the evening was by ABBA tribute band Arrival. The Scandinavian ensemble was led by Wendy Gorrie and Tracy Masson. The group played a wide selection of ABBA hits, and surprised the audience with a medley of other classic rock tunes ending with ACDC’s You Shook Me All Night Long. BOB FRIESEN PHOTO

Barge fire left to burn itself out Marine environment has not been compromised, according to coast guard Carol Aun MISSION RECORD

The fire-damaged barge on the Fraser River in Silverdale is in stable condition and the water around it has not been harmed by hydrocarbons, according to Canadian Coast Guard (CCG) response specialist Randy Farrell. The fire, which broke out Monday afternoon, is still smouldering and will be left to burn out on its own. The barge belonged to a scrap metal recycling business, and contained free-floating waste oils (such as hydraulic, diesel or old engine oil), according to officials. The CCG, which are primarily concerned about potential pollution to the marine environment, have

The fire broke out around 3:30 p.m. on May 26. been monitoring the situation daily. “We would like to see it continue burning until all the hydrocarbons are burnt out,” explained Farrell, noting the barge

is not at risk of going down. Sinking the barge would create an environmental problem, said Mission Fire/Rescue Service duty chief Blaine Odenbach, who

met with CCG officials Wednesday. The Mission fire department responded to put out the fire originally, but care has now been transferred to federal

Rotating strikes to continue Carol Aun MISSION RECORD

The BC Teachers’ Federation (BCTF) has notified school districts it will continue rotating strikes around the province next week, as negotiations continue to settle their long-running dispute over pay and staffing levels. BCTF president Jim Iker notified the B.C. Public School Employers’ Association in a letter Wednesday afternoon. Mission teachers were off the job Monday as part of the BCTF’s job action plan, and will be striking again on Friday, June 6. “Teachers are basically sick and tired of abuse from the government over the years,” said Mission Teachers’ Union president Mark Bradshaw, who joined his colleagues on the picket lines throughout the day. Bradshaw said teachers don’t want to interrupt student learning, but are fighting for a contract that looks at class size and composition and a reasonable wage offer.

CAROL AUN PHOTO

Mission teachers formed picket lines outside schools and the school board office Monday as they stepped up their job action. The public has been supportive of teachers’ job action, said Bradshaw, noting some parents have brought coffee and treats to teachers picketing outside schools. The rotating strike will hit a different day next week so students are not missing the same classes. “Our job action has been approved by the Labour Relations Board in advance,” said Bradshaw. While teachers were back in the classroom on Tuesday, they were partially locked out by their employers. Teachers could not be

at school 45 minutes before or after school. Doors were also locked for teachers at recess and lunch times. “During the day there will be instruction, but teachers will be leaving schools at lunch hour,” Bradshaw explained. “Teachers that stay behind to offer extra help to students won’t be able to do that.” Iker said the lockout would disrupt graduation ceremonies, and sports, drama and clubs would be cancelled. The B.C. Public School Employers’ Association issued

a letter to the BCTF Sunday, saying Iker’s statements are incorrect, and there are no school district restrictions on extracurricular or volunteer activities. “If teachers withdraw from participation in extracurricular or volunteer activities, they do so at the encouragement of the union and by their own choice,” the letter states. Education Minister Peter Fassbender said Monday the government is looking for movement from the BCTF on its wage and benefit demands, but isn’t going to impose another contract extension on the union. The legislature adjourned for the summer on Thursday. “To rush to legislation is not where we’re going to go,” Fassbender said. “We want the BCTF to come to the table with a wage response that is reasonable and within the zone of other public-sector unions. We expect them to come with something that is affordable for taxpayers.” – with Tom Fletcher

officials as the barge is in federal territory. Firefighters battled the blaze for more than five hours on Monday, and stopped when it was unsafe to continue.

The barge could not handle the extra weight of water being used to put out the fire, and an excavator, which was on deck, also caught fire and fell through the upper

floor, according to a press release from the District of Mission. Other safety factors for firefighters were the unknown material on the barge and the confined spaces, said Odenbach. The onus is on the owner of the barge to put out the fire and clean up the damage, said Farrell. “The owner is responsible for maintaining a 24-hour fire watch until the fire is out.” Odenbach estimates the fire could smoulder for another few days. The burning barge is located on the south end of McLean Street off the Lougheed Highway, several hundred metres west of the former Queen of Sidney BC ferry, which is moored off Cooper Avenue.

Fire destroys barn on Shaw Mission firefighters responding to a report of a minor fire on Shaw Street Saturday instead found a barn fully engulfed by flames. According to Mission Fire/Rescue Service Chief Larry Watkinson, once firefighters arrived just before 8 a.m., the residents informed them that the barn was used as a marijuana grow operation. “We went to a defensive attack,”

he said, where no firefighters entered the structure. Mission RCMP spokesperson Sgt. Shaun Wright said “an unauthorized natural gas line had been used to power a large generator inside the barn. An illegal marijuana grow operation was located in the barn.” All three stations responded to the call, and the police investigation is continuing.

Fraser River level eyed Jason ROESSLE ABBOTSFORD NEWS

District officials are closely watching the Fraser River water level this week, which on Wednesday edged over 5.5 metres at the Mission gauge. “Coming into last week, the rainfall swelled the river,” said Mission Fire/ Rescue Service Chief Larry Watkinson, who noted the municipality’s emergency preparedness committee met last week to review the flood plan. The water gauge is located just below the Mission Bridge, and if it crests 5.5 metres, the team meets again if it is expected that the water will get to six metres. At six metres, the District of Mission’s emergency operations centre – located on the top floor of fire station

The coroner’s office is still working on identifying the human remains found near the Hayward Lake Recreational Site more than two weeks ago. Sometimes IDs can be made in as few as three days, but some cases can take years, said Barb McLintock, from the BC Coroners Service. She says her office is “getting closer” to determining who the remains belong to.

A 19-year-old was stabbed in the abdomen this past weekend at a house party in Dewdney. The incident happened in the 37500 block of Hawkins Pickle Road just before 2 a.m. Sunday morning. According to police, a birthday party with about 50 guests was planned, but

the event quickly doubled in size when it was put on social media. The victim was stabbed during an altercation, said Mission RCMP Sgt. Shaun Wright. “The victim suffered significant injuries and was transported to hospital where he underwent surgery.” The victim is now

recovering. Nobody has been arrested or charged in connection to the stabbing, however, police have identified several people of interest. Investigators are asking anyone who may have witnessed the event to call them at 604-826-7161.

QUESTION OF THE WEEK

‘Typical’ deserves examination

It would appear the District of Mission’s elected representatives and administration have put to rest the issue of an exodus of non-unionized staff over the past two years. According to a district report, 14 exempt staff members left their employment from 2012 to April of this year. Seven resigned, three retired, one went on long-term disability and three were terminated. Of the 14, nine were senior managers. In the three previous years, eight non-unionized employees departed, including three resignations and a termination. Mission Mayor Ted Adlem said the report shows that staff departures and vacancies are typical of turnover at the District of Mission. Coun. Dave Hensman called the issue an “induced crisis,” and was glad that “confusion” was cleared up. Despite voting a month ago to bring in an external consultant to review the staffing departures, other councillors also now seem content to move on. We will as well, with some final observations. It may be that the number of departures in the past two years are “typical” of turnover at the District of Mission.

However, that prevailing perspective does not address underlying causes and factors, nor does it ask whether the turnover is reflective of other communities. In a rudimentary comparison, The Record sought figures from several similarly sized cities. Port Moody reported losing four senior managers in the past two years and Vernon has lost one. In Penticton, about half a dozen exempt staff resigned or retired from their jobs in the past two years, including one senior manager. At 14, Mission had double the highest number of departures in that group, more than triple of Port Moody, and vastly outpaced Vernon’s one. In that context, “typical” may not be such a reassuring word. As articulated by some councillors, the depth of staff experience at city hall has been affected as a result of the departures. In addition to that concern is the work environment which these people left, and whether that has created a reputation which may pose hiring challenges in the future. It would seem those are non-typical questions worth examination.

LAST WEEK WE ASKED: Do you believe a mandatory high school course on the history of residential schools is necessary? Here’s how you responded:

Yes 54% No 46%

Are our public schools racist? Tom Fletcher

B.C. Views Last week’s column on the proposal to add a mandatory high school course on the effects of Canada’s aboriginal residential school policy attracted a range of responses – some of which are printable. I referred to comments made by B.C. Teachers’ Federation vice-president Glen Hansman at a 2012 aboriginal education conference, where he insisted that “racism is the norm in public schools – still today” because of a colonial perspective that remains ingrained in our culture. Aboriginal education has been built into social studies curriculum for years. It’s come a long way from my high school days, where Mr. Spillers, my Grade 8 English teacher, assigned us an essay proposing solutions to Canada’s “Indian problem.” That was 1972, and it was the only time the subject came up. My lone aboriginal

classmate wasn’t around by then. I never saw him again after we graduated from our rural elementary school. How are things now? I received a thoughtful letter from a young woman who graduated from high school in the Okanagan last year. She writes: “The idea that information about residential schools is not presented to students is entirely incorrect. The social studies curriculum that I went through included a large emphasis on First Nations culture and post-European colonization history. “First Nations studies began in elementary school and continued to the last mandatory social studies course in Grade 11. I can say with no hesitation that if anything, I have been informed too often about the residential schools, and the horrendous things that occurred there. “If aboriginal culture courses are poorly attended, I would be inclined to suggest that it is because students are tired of being taught the same limited perspective over and over, and, if of European descent, being made to feel somehow responsible for all possible troubles plaguing First Nations today.” Another reply I’d like to share is from Keith

Thor Carlson, editor of the Stó:lo Nation historical atlas I referred to last week. Carlson is now a history professor at the University of Saskatchewan, specializing in the Salish people of B.C. and the Métis of Northern Saskatchewan. He writes:

Aboriginal education has been built into social studies curriculum for years “We do need to teach the history of the First Peoples of this country in our schools, and we do need to keep vigilant about the racism that continues to haunt the hallways and classrooms where our children learn. “Of course aboriginal history should never be reduced to victim history, and with the Stó:lo atlas we sought to show the complexity of aboriginal history, and we sought to show that not only are there aboriginal people in Canada’s history, but that Canada is in aborig-

inal peoples’ histories. “There were times in the past when aboriginal people were victimized (residential schools being a tragic example), and there were times when aboriginal people showed great agency (retaining the masked dance, and continuing to fish salmon, for example). “Knowing that native society was not a Utopia when Europeans arrived does not take away from the importance of learning about the full history of aboriginal people and their relationship with Canadian society. “And of course, as Ernie Crey has reminded me many times, let’s never forget that native rights are not based on race. Rather, they are rights based on prior occupation. And let’s also not forget that it is British and Canadian law that recognizes aboriginal peoples’ inherent rights. “Let’s teach good history to our youth so they can understand the complex relationship between settler society and aboriginal society. Through knowledge comes understanding and through understanding can come reconciliation.” Tom Fletcher is legislative reporter and columnist for Black Press and BCLocalnews.com tfletcher@blackpress.ca

YOUR VIEWS

Mission bicycle shop makes for smooth ride I’m sure it’s no secret to residents of Mission, but as visitors we just learned about an incredible shop with an incredible owner behind it. I was with a group of friends over the May long weekend – six ambitious women who are riding their bikes across Canada. I and some of their family members were driving

alongside for the first couple days as they departed Victoria and headed east. Day two was planned as a relatively flat 100 kilometres from Whonnock to Hope, when shortly past Mission, Kelly’s bike chain broke. We quickly scooped up her and her gear, along with another biker, off the side of the Lougheed Highway. On a holiday

Monday we had little hope that a bike shop would be open and had started making plans to delay the journey by a day. But a chance Google search put us on the line with Wenting’s Cycle and Mountain Shop in Mission. Bruce Wenting answered the phone and told us to see him right away. Waiting outside the

North Railway Avenue store-front, the broken chain took all of 10 minutes to fix. But the cycle guru wasn’t done. As it turns out, we’d struck the unlikely fortune of crossing paths with a bike mechanic of the Canadian national team. He asked Kelly to sit on her bike and inquired about her comfort riding so far. An hour and a half

later, her bike was transformed. Settings changed, angles altered, disassembled and reassembled. It was a completely different piece of machinery. He then took the next bike and made one or two alterations there. Both riders were very grateful for the improvements. But the other four in the group had already ridden ahead en route

to Hope. Not a problem, said Bruce. He was headed there that night to hear Canadian Olympian Clara Hughes give a presentation. She too is riding her bike across Canada, raising awareness about mental health issues. Just hours later, with tool kit in tow, Bruce met the team in Hope and had examined and altered four more bikes.

On a holiday Monday. At 9 p.m. Out of town. The team is now well on its way to reaching the goal of St. John’s for Aug. 18. They’ll have countless stories by the time they’re done. But I doubt they’ll forget about the kindness, generosity and cycling passion they found in Mission, B.C. Samantha Garvey Kamloops

Demands are reasonable Budget should reflect true cost A long time ago I saw a large banner with the headline, “What we want for ourselves, we want for others.” Those words froze me in a paralyzing cognitive dissonance. I wanted a lot for myself, but did I want the same for others? Categorically ‘no’ was the answer that had me so tied up in my uncomfortable thoughts of greed and selfishness. Am I really a person that doesn’t want good things for others? For me, this was a “coming to Jesus moment.” I soon realized that all my past griping about what others deserve or don’t deserve was carefully cloaked in my “screw you, I’m OK, Jack” mentality. Studies show that we compare our income to our neighbours and not the millionaires who live in their own gated community far from the struggling family of Joe and Jane Lunch-bucket. Since then I matured and found good reasons to want my neighbours to do well, but I didn’t have to change my selfish thinking. I realized that it serves my interests when my neighbours do well. When they are able to achieve the “good life,” I can expect less crime on my property; more education, therefore, I get better service where they are employed; my house value stays high due to my neighbours maintaining their property; and more consumers with disposable income equals a better economy, so my children can be employed one day with their small business. That said, when a million-dollar hockey player does well, my benefits

are very few. I don’t live beside male millionaires who knock a rubber disc around with a piece of curved wood to earn millions of dollars; however, I have a school teacher as one of my neighbours. Additionally to the previously listed reasons on how I personally benefit when my neighbours do well, there are an infinite number of reasons specifically for my neighbours who teach children. In reviewing what the teachers are asking for, I find that not only is it fair, but their interests are virtually identical to my interests as a parent, i.e. smaller class sizes,

etc. It seems to me that this fight between our teacher-neighbours and Christy Clark’s government is much bigger than my inconvenience in finding childcare during a strike. I want the best, most talented, most intelligent people chasing education careers, and so should you. If that means that millionaire men who whack rubber discs around, or bounce a rubber ball, or whack a little white ball on grass for a living have to pay slightly higher taxes, I’m good with that. Greg Engh, Mission

An open letter to school trustees in this province: I’m a teacher, but more importantly a parent living and working in Mission. I am writing to encourage you to reject your school districts’ current budget for the upcoming school year. Do not approve the budget, but instead, submit a budget that adequately reflects the cost of running a school district. In doing so, I know there is a possibility of being fired and replaced by an appointed government official. However, I truly believe this needs to be done in order to send a message to this government, that their current funding formula for education is not working, and that you do not accept their funding for your school district.

Also, it is an election year for school trustees. If you were to stand up for education, stand up for your local children and families of your communities and lost your job because of it, well, you would earn my outright respect and loyalty, not to mention the respect and admiration of thousands of members of your community. Please do not be afraid of this government. Instead, think of the thousands of students who you are standing up and fighting for. Think of their families, think of their futures. I implore you to submit a budget that addresses class size, composition and increased support for special needs students. More and more teachers are being laid off, more and more programs are being cut, and each

year, trustees and school board staff must sit down and discuss where to make more cuts. For 12 long years, school districts have had to manage with smaller, shrinking budgets to the point where there is nothing virtually left to cut. The entire system starts to break down, and it’s the children, the youth of your communities who suffer. Now, before you, is an opportunity to send a message to this government that their funding is not okay with you. You do not accept their level of funding and are not approving of it. I fully appreciate how difficult a task it must be to deliver a balanced budget working with the constraints you are bound by, but it must be challenged. Scott Susin, Mission

Aboriginal artists visiting libraries Celebrate National Aboriginal History Month at local libraries in June. Two aboriginal artists in residence, Darlene Allison and Jay Havens, will visit various Fraser Valley Regional Library locations, including ones in Abbotsford and Mission, to showcase their craft, chat with the public and present programs to registered groups. A member of the Sandy Bay Ojibway

First Nation, Allison is a self-taught artist who has been creating art for more than 35 years. She is a skilled artist, painter, and sculptor, however, she has focused much of her passion the past 14 years on carving. Using alabasters and soap stones, some of which she gathered herself from B.C. mountains, Allison will demonstrate carving. She will be at Abbotsford Commu-

nity Library on June 20 and Mission Library on June 24. A descendant of the Haudenosaunee Mohawk Nation, Jay Havens is an interdisciplinary artist working in the fields of visual arts, mural making and scenography. Much of his work examines stories and the ways in which they can be told visually to act as communicators between cultures. Using local materials,

culture, narrative, and Bunraku – traditional Japanese style puppets – as inspiration, Havens will share the art of visual storytelling as he crafts a fivefoot puppet that will take two people to articulate. Havens will be at Mission Library on June 6. All appearances are scheduled from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. For more information, visit www.fvrl.ca/aboriginalartist.php.

nominated her for the award. “I had a lot of competition,” said Rowley, who is an apprentice at Mission Auto Body and Towing. Rowley has already passed all her courses and is now finishing up the required hours of work to be a ticketed journeyperson. She will be using the $500 scholarship money to help pay for her education. Rowley, who was born and raised in Mission, admitted she didn’t fully know what she was getting herself into when she first enrolled in the trade. “I was unsure, but it’s been positive,” said Rowley. “My passion for it grew.” Rowley has worked as an apprentice painter and preparation worker for the past two years and hopes to eventually specialize in custom paint jobs for vehicles and bikes. “She’s very motivated,” said Wally Duperon, owner of Mission Auto Body and Towing. “It’s hard to find people with her determination.”

Mission athletes excel at Valley track meet Local athletes fared well at the recent Fraser Valley high school track and field championships in Coquitlam, highlighted by triple-medal performances from Adam Lambert and Jesse Walker. Lambert, from Hatzic Secondary, excelled in the throwing events, winning gold in the senior boys discus and hammer, and adding a bronze in shot put. Mission Secondary’s Walker took silver in the senior boys 110-metre hurdles and long jump, and bronze in the 100m. Jojo Calverly and Michael Lambert, both of Hatzic, climbed to the top step of the podium – Calverly earned gold in the Grade 8 girls 400m hurdles and bronze in the 800m, while Lambert won the junior boys high jump. Bryce MacKenzie notched a silver medal in the Grade 8 boys high jump, and Parmvir Sandhu of Mission Secondary took bronze in the senior boys discus. The provincial track and field championships run this week at Langley’s McLeod Athletic Park.

It is sadly ironic that almost all of the major causes of death today are related to lifestyle or behavior choices. A hundred years ago, most people died from infections or accidents, and there was little that most people could do to prevent their deaths. While infection still makes the list of the leading causes of death, the others are all related to lifestyle or behavior choices. According to the American Medical Association, the leading causes of death are related to the following: tobacco use, poor diet/ physical inactivity, alcohol consumption, infection, toxic agents, motor vehicle accidents, firearms, sexual behavior, and illicit use of drugs. (JAMA, March 10, 2004Vol. 291, No. 10) And although we certainly can’t stave off death indefinitely, we can prolong our lives by doing some relatively simple things like not smoking, eating a balanced diet, exercising regularly, wearing seat belts and not driving too fast, not engaging in risky sexual behaviors, and not using illicit drugs or consuming too much alcohol. This isn’t “rocket science,” and it isn’t “breaking news” either. Many of us too easily rationalize our unhealthy behavior, but the bottom line is really about being grateful to God for the precious gift of life and choosing a lifestyle that protects and enhances that gift. Are we good stewards of God’s gift, or does our lifestyle reflect ingratitude toward God’s gift of life? “Do not be deceived; God is not mocked, for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap.” R.S.V.

The Cycling4Diversity (C4D) team recently finished its four-day journey (May 20-23) from Mission to Mission. The team of a dozen or so C4D team members visited 20 schools in 15 cities, spreading the message of being inclusive throughout the Lower Mainland to thousands of students to celebrate Cycling 4 Diversity Week in B.C. (May 18-24). The team of riders left Mission on the morning of May 20 from the Mission Friendship Centre, where they were

gifted with a bandana and pray ties ceremony for blessings. Overall, the ride was smooth, but challenging nevertheless in trying to reach the schools in the scheduled times. The team completed an average of five to six schools per day including elementary, middle and secondary. The message was well received and our team was encouraged and welcomed to return in the future. Some mayors and council members even pedalled with us or met our team at the

SPRING CLEAN-UP 2014 was a GREAT success!

During this week, members encouraged students to make a special effort and develop inter-cultural relations with fellow students and break any conceived barriers that may exist in schools, neighbourhoods or workplaces. Letâ€™s face it, racism still exists, unfortunately, and cultural isolation is a growing issue in some of our communities. C4D member and Abbotsford Coun.

7 Habits of Highly Effective People. He referred to Habit 5: Seek First to Understand, Then to Be Understood. This relates to our overall message â€“ that if we all took a moment to listen or reach out to some one, that is one way of clearing up any stereotypes or misconception that may exist, between different cultural groups. We all have biases and sometimes through discussions like these, people may take the time to change any past behaviours through reflection. The team visited four schools in the Abbotsford/Mission area on May 20, which included Mission Secondary, Silverdale Elementary, Matsqui Elementary and Dasmesh Punjabi School. Abbotsford Coun. Dave Loewen said: â€œThe four-day, 22-school Cycling4Diversity trip was my first, and it didnâ€™t disappoint. The welcome we received wherever we went was genuinely open and warm. I came away from that experience believing that an authentic awareness existed that our message was not only needed, but that adherence to the message was essential for the creation of a more peaceful world. â€œIt was my impression that the students we spoke to, particularly in the Greater Vancouver area, already have a grasp of this, and that my generation has much to learn from the younger generation. I observed that they are more fortunate than I was at their age, in that my school was all white, while the cultural diversity thatÂ existsÂ today contrasts sharply. â€œNeedless to say, our message bears repeating many times, and I trust I will have more opportunities to participate in this worthwhile initiative.â€? Other members from the local area were: Anne-Marie Sjoden, Norm MacLeod, Bob Soltis, Randy Cairns, Elizabeth Lloyd and Anoop Tatlay. The C4D team is being recognized with a Community Service Award at the District of Mission annual awards event. Ken Herar writes monthly for the Abbotsford News on diversity issues.

Hatzic Elementary School student Keanna Peters will be competing in the provincial Heritage Fair next month. Peters’ project on “My Bannock Family” is one of 60 entries that will be on display in Kamloops from June 29 to July 3. This is the second year a heritage fair has been held in Mission and the first time a local student will be participating at the provincial level. Peters, a Grade 5 student, won first place in the Aboriginal Culture category at the 18th annual Fraser Valley Regional Heritage Fair last month before being selected to move on to the next level this week. Twenty-three Hatzic elementary students entered the regional event and earned five of the 25 awards given out. “Students were judged on their project display, oral presentation and their ability to share what they have learned through the research of their chosen topic,” said Cindy Rowell, Fraser Valley Regional Heritage Fair coordinator. Other Mission students who placed first in their category are Jillian Quick for her 1948 Flood project in the Family History category; Katherine Weither for her Bush Flying project in the Transportation and Communication category; Kayden Scott for his Canadian Floods project in the Provincial Stories category; and Kota Clarkson for her Road Building in Mission project in the Life Time Learner category. “The Regional Heritage Fair is part of a national initiative to encourage youth to celebrate Canada’s history and heritage,” said Rowell.

Judges Work Underway Last year’s Customer Experience Award recipient, Cherry Lane Scrapbook Shoppe, admits they were nervous of the judging process of the Awards. “I was happy to hear that they Chamber has simplified it to make it easier for businesses to participate. So when they asked if I would be willing to serve as a judge, I jumped in.” notes Leanne Payne. Using input from past nominees and making sure to keep it simple so businesses don’t feel overwhelmed with the opportunity; the Mission Chamber has streamlined the judging process. “Nominees only have to answer a quick questionnaire based on the award they were nominated for and provide some materials which allow the Chamber to promote their nomination.” comments Michelle Favero, Chamber Executive Director. The questionnaires provide information for the five judges who critique each nominee against the award criteria and assign them a grade. The final grade plus the community vote that ended May 19 determines the winner. “Winning this award was important for our business. It gave our team confidence and solidified the direction we had chosen as a business model.” states Payne. “I am looking forward to sharing this opportunity with another deserving local business.”

Look for the Nominated stickers around town to note this year’s Business Excellence nominees.

AWARDS CELEBRATE THE BEST OF IN MISSION Each year the Mission Regional Chamber of Commerce celebrates innovative and exceptional businesses in our community.

headroom and some room to stretch out either piloting or co-piloting the Micra. Under hard acceleration, primarily from the 4-speed automatic, the Micra is quite vocal. You can really hear the engine noise intrude the cabin. It’s not a performance machine like the Nissan GT-R, where you want to hear as much ruckus as you can. However, when cruising at highway speeds – without the lead foot acceleration – my driving partner and I noticed how quiet the cabin is. Wind noise is kept at bay and it’s serene. Furthermore, it was an incredibly blustery day when we took these pint-sized four-doors out. Needless to say, you could feel the swagger of the car at highway speeds. But in its defense, larger vehicles felt the wrath of Mother Nature’s blow, too.

While very affordable, the Micra isn’t “cheap” in execution. Even the knobs on the roll down windows have a soft touch to them. And there are metallic accents to break up the otherwise bland black interior. I certainly wasn’t disappointed when captaining the Micra. Even though that might sound like a backhanded compliment, it’s not. As far as small cars go, it’s functional, funky and has great value. Whether you’re looking for a vehicle that gets you from point A to B – minus all the options – or said vehicle with a few extras, the 2015 Micra might be the car for you. Summed up, the Micra is affordable transportation with amiable drivability, an easy-on-the eyes interior and overall a bubbly personality.

driveway Taking the stress out of towing a trailer By Ian Harwood

Camping season is almost upon us and it will soon be time to take that trailer out for some fun times. But is it fun for the driver?

Towing a trailer may be one of the most stressful driving situations for many truck owners. For one thing, it is not easy to manoeuvre around corners and change

lanes with that extra length behind your truck. Backing up also can be challenging and towing up a steep hill can be tough on your truck. Whether you tow a

boat, car, snowmobiles, or motorcycles, custom truck accessories can make towing less nerve-wracking. Don’t Tow Too Much Weight

weight and tongue weight it can handle. Tongue weight is the downward force exerted on the hitch ball by the trailer coupler. In most cases, it is about 10 to

Pulling too much weight can be very dangerous. Check your owner’s manual to find your vehicle’s towing capacity, including the maximum gross trailer

15 per cent of gross trailer weight. Tongue weight of up to 300 pounds can be measured on a household scale by resting the trailer coupler on the scale and placing the scale on a box so that the coupler is at its normal towing height. The trailer must be fully loaded and level. Use the Right Hitch and Other Equipment Just as each vehicle has a maximum towing capacity so too does each trailer hitch, hitch ball, ball mount and safety chain. To tow safely, you need to make sure every component you use is ready to handle the weight of your fully loaded trailer. Remember, your towing capacity is equal to the capacity of the weakest link in the system. Choosing a Trailer Hitch All trailer hitches feature a class rating, as well as a weight rating, so be sure the hitch can accommodate the loaded trailer. For instance, Reese Class 2 ($159) hitches have a maximum-rated capacity of 350 pounds tongue weight and 3,500 pounds gross trailer weight. Class IV ($175) receiver-style hitches have a maximum capacity of 1,200 pounds tongue weight and 12,000 pounds gross trailer continued on page 23

weight. If you need more towing capacity than the traditional receiver-style weight distributing hitch, then you need to step up to a fifth-wheel or gooseneck hitch. Prices start at $650. Choosing A Hitch Ball If you have a drawbar-style hitch, the hitch ball usually is built right in. But if you have a receiver-style hitch, you’ll need to choose your own hitch ball. Like vehicles and trailer hitches, hitch balls also are assigned a maximum tongue weight and gross trailer weight rating.

2014 GMC 3500HD. Hitch balls are made from a variety of materials, and some are available in a choice of finishes, including chrome. They cost is $12 to $14. The hitch ball diameter must be the same diameter as the trailer coupler (1 7/8 inches, 2 inches or 2 5/16 inches). The shank diameter of the hitch ball should be the same as the hole diameter in the ball mount. The shank length should be long enough to allow at least two threads to be visible when the hitch ball is installed and the nut completely tightened. Load Your Trailer Properly Rule of thumb is roughly two-thirds (60 to 66 percent) of the gross load weight should be positioned toward the front half of the trailer. Place large or heavy objects on the trailer first. Tie these objects down securely and from several angles to ensure they do not shift. Pack remaining items in a manner that maintains balance of the trailer. Once the trailer is loaded, double-check the positioning and stability of the cargo. Better safe than sorry. ian.harwood@drivewaybc.ca

IN MEMORIAM

In Loving Memory of our Mom & Grandma Joan Kern (Roth) May 16, 1942 ~ May 30, 2011

God gave us a wonderful Mother to love a lifetime through, Our Mother encouraged us in everything we did. Our Mother was so many people blended into one, a source of inspiration she was happy and full of fun. Our Mother heard our every word she listened with her heart. Her mastery of Motherhood was a very special art. Our Mother shared and always cared she thought of others first and she loved us just like always even when we were at our worst. Our Mother brought such happiness with the kindness that she gave and created a good example with the life she lived. We only had one Mother to look up to and to praise, and no one else in all the world could match her loving ways. Trevor & Dana, Michelle & Chris, Rhonda & Mark, Bobbi

Numerous activities are being planned in celebration of Seniors Week in Mission. Festivities kick off Friday, May 30 with an informative session about senior’s issues with B.C.’s seniors advocate Isobel Mackenzie. Mackenzie was named B.C.’s first senior’s advocate in March. The role of the Office of the Seniors Advocate is to monitor seniors’ services, promote awareness and work collaboratively with seniors, families, policymakers, service providers, and others to identify solutions to systemic issues and make recommendations to government on ways to improve care for the aging population. Mackenzie will give a 45 minute presentation and be available afterwards to answer questions, said Bob Ingram, president of the Mission Seniors Activity Centre. “The featured speaker is an important event for the community,” said Ian

Teleworkshop helps residents improve brain health, from comfort of homes Aging British Columbians are fearful of dementia but people can live well with the disease with the right care and support, says the Alzheimer Society of B.C. More than 70,000 people in the province many of them in the local area - live with dementia, and that number is increasing dramatically as the population ages. To help families, the Society runs free tele-workshops. Heads Up: An Introduction to Brain Health, runs on Wednesday, June 4. It looks at Alzheimerâ€™s disease and how it impacts the brain, the latest research on reducing your risk for dementia, and everyday tips for improving HSA 66 Hedge Trimmer & HLA 65 Long-Reach Trimmer

brain health. It is designed for people with dementia, their caregivers and the general public. The tele-workshop starts at 7 p.m. Connecting to the sessions is as easy as phoning toll-free 1-866-994-7745, then entering pass code 1122333 when prompted and visiting momentum.adobeconnect.com/ alzheimerbc and entering as a Guest to view the presentation online. Tele-workshops are learning sessions designed for family caregivers, but are also open to health-care providers. Recognizing that many caregivers are unable to attend in-

person workshops, the sessions can be accessed by telephone and online (optional). At the end of the tele-workshop, participants have an opportunity to ask questions and share with others who are in similar situations. For more information about other upcoming tele-workshops or to view shortened recordings of past sessions go to www. alzheimerbc.org/We-Can-Help/TelephoneWorkshops.aspx. For more information on Alzheimerâ€™s disease and other dementias, which affect one in 11 Canadians over the age of 65, visit the Society website at www.alzheimerbc.org.

Mission Seniors Activity Centre presents

Sweetwater

Sweetwater, a versatile husband and wife duo, will be performing at an Afternoon Dance during Seniors Week at the Mission Seniors Activity Centre. Bill and Marie play a wide range of music together, including rock classics, country, and Latin ballroom. Their music is popular with all ages, and they will even alter their music to encourage audiences to sing along and dance. Marie is the lead singer with an energetic stage presence. Bill plays the guitar, banjo, keyboards, provides some vocals and arranges the synth background. They have a full band sound and their set up includes stage lighting. Bill and Marie have been married for 33 years and have been playing music together for more than 20. It started as an informal hobby when the couple semi-retired and moved to the Fraser Valley from Vancouver, but they soon started to get serious about. “Bill was always in a band,” said Marie, who was encouraged by her husband to keep singing. “He’s a musician. I’ve always loved music, but I never dreamed I’d be performing in public.” Bill and Marie have performed throughout the Lower Mainland, Vancouver Island and B.C. Interior. Mission’s Afternoon Dance takes place Thursday, June 5 from 1 to 4 p.m. at the Mission Seniors Activity Centre, 33100 10 Ave. Tickets are $5 each and refreshments will be provided. To order your tickets, call Jean or Doug at 604814-2188. For more information visit www.sweetwaterduo.com.

The Mission Record Friday, May 30, 2014 B7

Life Lease Housing: a New Housing Option for Mission Kate Mancer, one of Canada’s most respected authorities in the seniors housing field, and the author of The Future of Seniors Housing: Planning, Building and Operating Successful Seniors Housing Projects, became an instant fan of life lease when she first learned about the model 15 years ago. At that time she was working on a major report for Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) called Alternate Tenure Arrangements. CMHC is Canada’s national housing agency. One of the alternate arrangements Kate studied was life lease. She travelled across the country visiting a number of life lease projects talking to the managers, the residents and the non-profit societies that ran them. “That’s what gave me the life lease bug because I could see how well they worked and how happy the people were who lived in them,” says Kate, a consultant with

Vancouver-based Terra Lumina Life Lease, now working with the Mission Association for Seniors Housing (MASH) on Cedar Valley Manor, a life lease nearing completion at 8358 Cedar Street in Mission. Kate adds: “All of the research that’s been done on life lease shows that the degree of satisfaction is off the charts. People love living in them, partly because of their trust in the community based nonprofits, like MASH, that sponsor and manage life lease projects. It’s also because of the simplicity, the safety and the security that living in a life lease provides.” Buyers at Cedar Valley Manor have a 30 year lease which is registered on title. When they choose to move, they give 60 days’ notice and get 95% of their money back. Several of the buyers at Cedar Valley Manor have chosen to move there on the advice of their financial planners who value the life lease model for its security and its liquidity.

And of course in the case of Cedar Valley Manor, the very attractive unit designs and the high quality of construction don’t hurt either. “It’s all built to a really high quality because it’s MASH that is the owner of the building and will be maintaining it throughout its lifespan. It’s in their interest to build a quality building right from the outset.” Here’s the conclusion of another report published by CMHC in

2007. That report is called An Examination of Life Lease Housing Issues “Everyone in all 15 focus groups indicated that they would purchase a life lease unit again or advise a friend to purchase. Residents indicated that they were extremely happy in their choice of housing.”

These people have something to smile about. They used to wear dentures, which caused discomfort, an inability to eat many foods and a lack of conÀdence when it came to smiling and talking.

“

Dental Implants gave us a confident smile Now they enjoy the freedom of NobelSmile dental implants, which are as close to natural teeth as you can get. People who lose a tooth want to replace it with something permanent, says Dr. Lui, instead of something they have to remove. “Once you give someone new, permanent teeth, you can see their personality shine through again.”

“Whether you have a single tooth, several teeth or everyone of them missing...we can help.”
