Highway speeds revved up
CANADA DAY CELEBRATED
Limits raised on Hwy. 1 from Whatcom Road to Hope
A7 Thousands turn out in Abbotsford to observe the nation’s 147th birthday
Tom FLETCHER and Jason ROESSLE Black Press
Motorists driving between Abbotsford and Hope may now get there a little faster with a 10 km/h increase in the speed limit on Highway 1 between Whatcom Road (Exit 95) and Hope. The hike in the speed limit from 100 km/h to 110 on that stretch took effect Wednesday, and other increases around the province will be phased in over the summer. The province announced the changes as the result of a province-wide rural highway safety and speed review. Two Abbotsford trucking companies joined others in the region saying the change won’t alter how their vehicles operate on the highway. “We’re [electronically governed] to 100 km/h,” said James Skinner, operations manager for Langley Freight Lines, which has an office in Abbotsford. The increased safety risk and elevated fuel costs just aren’t worth increasing trucks’ speed, he explained. The company primarily serves the forest industry and sawmills, but hauls nearly anything from potash to cement and pipe. Skinner said if the trucks ran faster, they would have to pass on the costs to customers. “We wouldn’t even consider it. The time sensitivity is not worth the extra money.” Clearbrook Grain and Milling also said the new rules will not change how it runs its business. Chris Tarlier, operations manager, said the “loads are so local, that this won’t have a major effect.” Continued on A6

Grow-op ag land ban denied Province won’t allow farm tax for new grow-ops on ALR Alex BUTLER Abbotsford News
Commercial marijuana grow-ops could come to Abbotsford despite efforts to keep them outside city limits after the province rejected the city’s proposed bylaw to ban grows from the Agricultural Land Reserve (ALR). Abbotsford has passed bylaws to keep the new federal system of legal grow-ops off industrial and residential land. The city is one of four B.C. communities that sought a ban in the ALR, but received a letter from the province denying the request. In a news release last week, the province cautioned cities with plans to ban marijuana producers on agricultural land that they might face constitutional challenges by prohibiting the new system from the ALR. The province also announced that mari-
juana producers are now excluded from the list of agricultural uses that qualify for the lower farm tax rate, much like gravel pits and wineries. A City of Abbotsford news release explains that while the city will not lose property tax revenues from grow-ops, the decision doesn’t address other potential issues such as public safety, fire protection, infrastructure servicing and more. City manager George Murray said the city is consulting legal counsel to understand the decision and the impact on how municipalities can regulate grow-ops in their communities. A report on how the decision will impact Abbotsford will come to city council in the coming weeks. Several cities have passed bylaws allowing pot producers to operate only on industrial land, so the buildings don’t effectively pave over productive farmland.
The federal government has so far issued five medical marijuana production licenses in B.C., to operators in Central Saanich, Maple Ridge, Whistler, Nanaimo and Spallumcheen, while hundreds of other applications are under consideration. In Abbotsford, a company has applied for a business licence to establish a legal growop on ALR land on Vye Rd. near Upper Sumas Elementary School. Council decided on March 31 to hold the application for 90 days, which is allowed if an application is in conflict with a bylaw that is in preparation. Though commercial grows are being established, the federal government’s shift to commercial growers remains under a legal cloud, awaiting a constitutional challenge launched by Abbotsford lawyer John Conroy on behalf of authorized growers who want to continue home production.
‘Powerful evidence’ in murder case Prosecutor begins closing arguments in Surrey Six trial
Vikki HOPES Abbotsford News
A “powerful body of circumstantial evidence” proves that Cody Haevischer and Matthew Johnston are guilty of killing six people in a Surrey apartment tower, the Crown stated during the first day of closing submissions at the Surrey Six trial on Wednesday. Prosecutor Mark Levitz, speaking in B.C. Supreme Court in Vancouver, said Haevischer and Johnston are guilty of conspiracy to kill rival drug leader Corey Lal, and of the first-degree murder of Lal and five others on Oct. 19, 2007. Included in the slaughter were two innocent victims – fireplace repairman Ed Schellenberg, 55, of Abbotsford, and Christopher Mohan, 22, who lived across the hall from suite 1505, the scene of the mass killing in the Balmoral Tower in Surrey. The three other victims – Michael Lal, Eddie Narong and Ryan Bartolomeo – had gang and drug connections. Levitz said the evidence presented by 73 witnesses and 80 days of testimony proves, in part, that the two accused killed Lal as a gesture of loyalty to their fellow gang members. “Haevischer and Johnston participated in this because they were Red Scorpion members ... They were obliged to assist ... even though they might not have known Corey Lal or had any individual personal (animosity) against him,” he said. The Crown’s submission to Justice Catherine Wedge encompassed five volumes, with 10 chapters to be presented in court this week. Defence submissions are expected to start next week. Levitz referred to the volumes as the Crown’s “roadmap” of the case, including what he said are 30 points of fact. Levitz stated the killings were initiated
VIKKI HOPES Abbotsford News
Eileen Mohan’s son was one of two innocent victims, also including Abbotsford’s Ed Schellenberg. by Jamie Bacon who, along with Michael Le, was co-leader of the Red Scorpions at the time. Le had initially gone on trial with Haevischer and Johnston last September, but pleaded guilty in November to conspiracy to murder Corey Lal. He then became a star witness for the Crown. Levitz said Bacon had a “beef” with Corey Lal, whose group was infringing on the Red Scorpions’ drug-trafficking operations, which they wanted to expand from Surrey into Abbotsford, Mission and Maple Ridge. Bacon had ordered Lal to pay a $100,000 “tax,” and when Lal didn’t pay, Bacon wanted him killed, Levitz said. “If nothing was done, it would make the Red Scorpions look weak,” Levitz said, adding that the gang fostered a reputation for intimidation and violence. He said Haevischer and Johnston, along
with a third man, who can only be identified as Person X, agreed to do the hit on Lal, and the other five were killed to eliminate witnesses. Person X previously pleaded guilty to second-degree murder in the case and is serving a life sentence, but did not testify at the trial. Another witness, who can only be identified as Person Y and who is serving a life sentence for two unrelated murders, testified that he was involved in the plan to kill Lal. He also testified to the roles that Haevischer and Johnston allegedly played. Levitz said this testimony, among others, and evidence that includes cellphone records and video surveillance in and around the Balmoral Tower on the day of the killings proves that the two accused are guilty. He said the killings were “planned and deliberate executions.” Evidence at the trial showed that two guns were used and 19 rounds were fired. The six men were shot either in their backs and/or the backs or sides of their heads. They were then placed in two groups of three. Speaking outside of the courthouse, Eileen Mohan, the mom of victim Christopher Mohan, said the trial has been “very emotional,” but she has been there every day to represent her son and hope that justice will prevail. “I don’t want another family to go through this and another child to be taken like this,” she said. Closing submissions are expected to last through next week. The judge is not expected to issue her verdict until the fall. Bacon will be tried separately on one count each of conspiracy to commit murder and first-degree murder. He was living in Abbotsford at the time of his arrest. Another man, Sophon Sek, is also awaiting trial – on a charge of manslaughter – in the case.

Also part of the provincial changes are new 120 km/h limits on three remote stretches of divided four-lane highway. The new maximum applies to the Coquihalla Highway from Hope to Kamloops, the Okanagan Connector (Highway 97C) from Aspen Grove to Peachland and Highway 19 from Parksville to Campbell River. The Coquihalla sections get new 120 km/h signs this week, and more changes will roll out this summer as sign crews put up new limits. In all, 35 sections of rural provincial highway totalling 1,300 km are getting higher speed limits. Transportation Minister Todd Stone said limits are being raised where traffic studies show the vast majority of traffic is already going faster than the posted limit. A pilot project will test variable speed limits depending on volume and weather conditions. Digital signs that can display different limits will be tested on sections of the TransCanada, Coquihalla and Sea-to-Sky highways. The Sea-to-Sky Highway gets an increase from 80 to 90 km/h from Horseshoe Bay to Squamish. Other increases are 80 to 100 km/h on Highway 3 from Manning Park West to Allison Pass, 90 to 100 km/h from Revelstoke to Golden and 100 to 110 km/h on Highway 97C from Merritt to Aspen Grove. RCMP opposed increasing speed limits on rural highways. ICBC representatives also expressed safety concerns, and will monitor areas with higher limits to see if the severity of crashes increases. Ministry statistics show the number of serious crashes on provincial highways has decreased 28 per cent since 2003, from a combination of improved vehicle technology, driver education and enforcement.

breeder after it was learned that Winston had been born with several congenital diseases, the most serious of which resulted in narrow vertebrae that disrupt the messages Winston’s brain sends to his feet. Winston can still walk, but he’s not the most co-ordinated of dogs. He also has hip dysplasia and trouble breathing. After his adoption, one of Horvat’s co-workers would frequently dog-sit Winston. That co-worker had children with their own health problems who grew to love the awkward-looking creature. “They kind of related to him because they both had diseases,” Horvat said. That bond, and the happiness the children got from Winston, spurred Horvat to get involved with Pets & Friends, a non-profit organization that matches animals and their owners with medical patients and facilities. Studies show that dogs decrease stress among patients of all ages, and Winston is just one of nine therapy dogs that visits ARH on a regular basis (St. John Ambulance also provides therapy dogs). Hospital patients are even permitted to bring pets into the building, provided they are calm and won’t trigger allergies among nearby patients. “Winston works well because he’s funny-looking and he’s friendly, and he’s small enough that he can crawl on the bed with them,” said Horvat. Susie Clark, a child life specialist at the ward who works to match Winston with kids who would enjoy his presence, agreed. “There’s something about the unconditional love and that playful nature that dogs have that fits them,” Clark said. “They can talk about their own dogs or the dogs that they know instead of thinking about the IV pole or what test is coming up next.”
ith an awkward gait, a bunched-up nose, and an overly long tongue that rarely retracts into his mouth, four-year-old Winston isn’t going to ever win any beauty pageants. But in Abbotsford Regional Hospital’s pediatrics ward, Shelley Horvat’s awkward-looking pug is a superstar. “He’s famous in here!” a nurse had explained to onlookers as Winston nonchalantly strolled past the reception desk Friday morning. Soon after, he was perched across the legs of Christina Lawton, a 17-year-old patient with a low platelet count visiting the ward as an outpatient since April. Winston’s presence was a bonus – a nice way to pass the time as she waited to begin her treatment. For younger patients, Winston can bring moments of joy, calm and exuberance to a scary and difficult moment in their young lives. That doesn’t make him unique among animals, but Winston seems to have a special appeal, said Horvat, a vet at Fraser Valley Animal Hospital who volunteers her and Winston’s time once a week. Winston has been visiting the ward since the start of the year, but already Horvat has seen the remarkable effect her little pug can have. She tells the story of one boy who woke up on Winston’s regularly scheduled visiting day asking about the imminent arrival of his four-legged friend. On Winston’s previous visit, the boy had smiled for the first time since he was admitted to the hospital, his mother told Horvat. Some kids may see a bit of themselves in Winston, who has dealt with his own health issues since birth.

Speed limit changes Speed is not, nor was it ever the actual issue, but it sure does pull in lots of revenue. They should be ticketing left lane zombies, people who think they have to pull into the left lane just because there is an overpass approaching, people who slow down to merge, etc. If everyone went 150 it wouldn’t hurt anyone (assuming safe, good car, alert capable driver, and good weather) but if people do stupid stuff at 80, people die. John Hartman Great, now we will have people in the left lane doing 140 km/h coming up on rolling roadblocks created by pockets of drivers in the right lane doing 86 km/h. Jason Ennis I’m all into the higher speed limit but shocked to see it was the Whatcom stretch to Hope! I commute it a few times a day! Missy Michelle Drysdale

Take action on bird scare devices
I am writing once again as the berry season is upon us. For years, there has been lots of talk surrounding the use of ABSDs (Audible Bird Scare Devices) within the city. There’s been talk of a stricter bylaw to enforce the use of these devices; trapping and alternative methods to these devices; hours and hours of meetings and time put into this; but in the end, nothing has changed, nothing has been physically done. It’s all just been talking about doing things. My family has been farming here since 1942. Never, ever, in all those years, have we ever used such invasive methods of farming. We value our neighbours’ health and our own. ABSDs seriously decrease the quality of life and health of those living around us. I know that all of you are aware of the health reports that speak of how unhealthy it is for people to be exposed to ABSDs.
This summer, for the first time ever, I’m going to be going to school in July and August, completing my post-degree studies. I honestly don’t know how I’m going to get through it. The farms surrounding us all use propane cannons and orchard pistols. It works out to shots going off multiple times within one minute. It’s a war zone. I don’t know how I’m going to be able to study or write. I know from past summers that there is little hope of being able to concentrate with blasts going off that make you jump each time. Something needs to be done. Something needs to change. All levels of government, municipal and provincial, together with the BC Blueberry Council and berry growers, are equally responsible to see that farming practices used are friendly to the community. A. Howard, Abbotsford
The public coffers are not flush
My state of nausea with the ongoing bleating of the “give the teachers what they want” saga has forced me to add my own bleating. I think the main question which should be asked is will all those demanded raises really improve the education of the children? I think not. I do think it is a tactic always used to bamboozle the heart but not reach the logical mind of all non-teachers. I am in no way against people being appropriately compensated for the work they perform. On the contrary. How do you feel/think when someone is protected by a union and they are totally inef-
fective in their job, especially the teaching of your children? Should they automatically benefit? Are you really bedazzled by the results of the present education method? The semi-literacy of too many children, for example. Maybe it is not the small percentage of poor teachers who are at fault. Maybe it is the system that pushes the kids ahead even when they don’t have a clue what is going on. All workers would like to have not only the salary, but also the copious benefits the teachers presently receive, even without the increases.
Maybe, we as a caring society could get our heads together in order to come up with ways that the city, the province and Ottawa could eliminate the always-present waste from the revenue we provide for them so that the teachers, and everyone else, would be able to receive their (reasonable) desires. Until we do that, maybe the deserving teachers, and all other unions in the near future, could hold back in their demands as most of the citizenry are forced to do. At present, the coffers do not appear to be flush. Simone Najat Greine

of his final projects in the graphic and digital design program. He took a quartet of his homebrew – a blonde ale crafted under the name High Seas Brewing Co. – and scripted his resume onto the cardboard bottle holder. The packaging reads: “Visually pleasing, smooth and elegant with a bit of a wild side … and I’m not just talking about the beer.” “I got an A,” he said with a laugh. Better still, his gamble worked, as Gleason’s ResumAle scored him a job with a Vancouverbased digital marketing agency called Techtone. While Gleason put photos of his work online in February, just last week the Abbotsford resident’s project went viral online. He’s been interviewed by Yahoo, ABC News, The Huffington Post, Design Taxi, Laughing Squid, Daily Mail UK and more. He just returned from a quick trip to Seattle, Wash., where he did an interview on Fox News. “It’s just been crazy,” he said. Gleason isn’t sure why his project suddenly went viral, but he assumes it could be based on his belief that “standard paper resumes” might not be the best bet, especially for those interested in the creative fields. “[The paper ones] can just get thrown in a pile,” he noted. Gleason was part of UFV’s first graphic and digital design classes, and graduated in early June. Previous to his UFV experience, he also spent six months doing an internship at the Abbotsford News in the creative services department.

Coho to take bigger hit during sockeye fishery Jeff NAGEL Black Press
Conservationists say a federally approved fishing plan sacrifices too many endangered coho salmon so fishing companies can catch more of an expected massive run of Fraser River sockeye this summer. The predicted bonanza of sockeye – 23 million with a chance it could be more than 70 million – means there’s intense pressure for fishermen to capitalize on the huge run. But if too many coho are caught in the nets along with sockeye, it could be a major setback for Interior coho runs that were nearly wiped out in the late 1990s and had been gradually rebuilding. In past years, the Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) has limited that unintentional bycatch to three per cent of the incoming coho run – once that many coho were caught sockeye fisheries were usually halted to protect weaker runs. But DFO’s newly released plan more than quadruples that limit to a maximum 16 per cent of the coho run that can be killed this year by Canadian fishermen, not counting any bycatch by Americans. “It should be called an overfishing plan,”
said Watershed Watch Salmon Society biologist Aaron Hill, who accuses fishery managers of neglecting their duty to protect weak stocks. “The main reason this is happening is because of heavy lobbying from the fishing interests who want to be able to catch more sockeye.” A DFO letter to stakeholders says the changes will only be in effect for the 2014 season and was informed by an internal scientific review. But Hill contends there is no scientific consensus on the safety of the coho protection measures. Gord Sterritt, executive director of the Upper Fraser Fisheries Conservation Alliance, which represents 23 First Nations from Williams Lake to the Fraser’s headwaters, said aboriginal stakeholders were prepared to accept some increase in allowed coho bycatch in recognition that this is “a unique year” but said DFO’s decision goes too far. “Basically they are opening the season on endangered species,” Sterritt said. “We’ve been in conservation mode trying to protect these stocks since 1998. We’ve seen some recovery in the last three years. But it’s still iffy.”

TYLER OLSEN Abbotsford News
Abbotsford’s Lauren Kerr has been named to Canada’s women’s rugby sevens team for the upcoming Youth Olympic Games in Nanjing, China. She was the only player chosen from British Columbia.

The sun is beaming down, the mercury is edging toward 30 C and Lauren Kerr is standing in the middle of an empty field practicing her kick. The Robert Bateman secondary grad’s plans to try out for provincial and regional rugby squads this summer have been scuttled. Instead, she’s training six days a week, usually for upwards of four hours at a time. It’s not exactly how Kerr envisioned herself
exam/xrays/cleaning
spending her first month after high school, but her intensive training regimen comes with a big payoff. Kerr, 18, found out last week that she will be heading to China in August as part of Canada’s women’s rugby sevens squad at the Youth Olympic Games. She is the lone British Columbia player to make the team. With rugby making its debut at the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro, the youth team is a key stepping stone toward selection

Aiming for the Olympics From A16
for Canada’s women’s rugby squads in 2016 and especially 2020. So Kerr, a scrum half/first receiver who started the game four years ago at the behest of her brother Devon, was more than a little excited to learn of her selection by email. “I just melted,� she said. “I was amazed. I can’t express the feeling. I started to cry.� So too did her parents Leslie and Ray, who will join their daughter in Nanjing. Kerr hadn’t liked her chances at wearing the Maple Leaf during two selection camps for the squad. Canada’s women’s rugby program is strong, having qualified for the Youth Olympics by finishing second at the Women’s Rugby Sevens World Cup. “I didn’t think I had a shot,� she said. “From my point of view, the other girls had so much talent.� But so did Kerr, apparently. She captained Bateman’s 15-a-side squad this year but found herself on the sidelines for the bulk of the provincial championship game after separating her shoulder in the Fraser Valley final. The shoulder’s back in tip-top shape now, but Kerr won’t be playing locally or provincially in order to stay healthy for the national team. Her selection is indicative of Kerr’s skill, but it’s also a testament to her inner drive, said Bateman coach Jen Ross. “She is extremely determined and hard-working, but what sets her apart is her love of the sport,� Ross said. And while rugby is known as a hard-hitting, fast-paced sport for uber-athletes, it’s the nuanced parts of the game that appeal most to Kerr. As a ball-distributing scrum-half, Kerr sounds like a chess grandmaster as she explains her love for rugby. “There’s a lot of thinking involved,� said Kerr. “During the game, I have to know my next move two moves ahead, before I can complete the first one.� Kerr doesn’t just enjoy thinking rugby. She likes thinking about thinking; she plans on studying psychology at the University of Victoria and will also likely suit up for the university’s rugby squad. With Canada’s women rugby team based nearby, she’ll be in a perfect spot to build upon her reputation as one of the country’s best young players. But that’s in the future. Today and tomorrow and the next day are about working out in the gym, practicing the fundamentals, and getting ready for China. “The work doesn’t stop,� she said. “You’ve got to keep going.�

Hignell captains Canada to upset Tyler OLSEN Abbotsford News

Jason Hignell carries the ball during the 2014 Rugby League Commonwealth Championships in Scotland.
Yale Secondary grad Jason Hignell and his Canadian teammates made a big splash last weekend at the 2014 Rugby League Commonwealth Championships in Scotland. The Hignell-captained Canadian squad didn’t only knock off rugby su-
perpowers England and South Africa, they did so playing a game with a completely different set of rules than they were used to. Rugby union is the most popular form of the game and dominant in Canada. The Scotland tournament was the first time most of the Canadians, including Hignell, played rugby league.
There are a number of differences between league and union rugby. For one, the ball must be turned over to the other side after the offensive team’s ball carriers are tackled six times. “We thought we’d get walked all over,” Hignell said. But the Canadians had surprisingly little trouble adapting to league, which Hignell FIDO STORES

for the semifinals. The Canadians eventually ran out of gas, falling 20-0 to Australia in the semifinal and then losing 20-4 to Wales in the third-place game. But those defeats didn’t taint Hignell’s experience though. “It’s every kid’s dream who plays rugby to play against England and South Africa and the Pacific Islands of the world,” he said “To have that opportunity when I’m 17 to put a Maple Leaf on, I still can’t believe what happened.”
said is actually simpler than rugby union. “To come from a rugby union background and do so well at the tournament, and to beat England and South Africa in our first two rugby league matches is unheard of,” said Hignell, who played with a broken bone in his hand – an injury suffered during Yale’s playoff drive. The Canadians trounced England 24-4 in their first game and followed that victory with a 24-16 win over South Africa to qualify

Aiming for the Olympics From A16
for Canada’s women’s rugby squads in 2016 and especially 2020. So Kerr, a scrum half/first receiver who started the game four years ago at the behest of her brother Devon, was more than a little excited to learn of her selection by email. “I just melted,� she said. “I was amazed. I can’t express the feeling. I started to cry.� So too did her parents Leslie and Ray, who will join their daughter in Nanjing. Kerr hadn’t liked her chances at wearing the Maple Leaf during two selection camps for the squad. Canada’s women’s rugby program is strong, having qualified for the Youth Olympics by finishing second at the Women’s Rugby Sevens World Cup. “I didn’t think I had a shot,� she said. “From my point of view, the other girls had so much talent.� But so did Kerr, apparently. She captained Bateman’s 15-a-side squad this year but found herself on the sidelines for the bulk of the provincial championship game after separating her shoulder in the Fraser Valley final. The shoulder’s back in tip-top shape now, but Kerr won’t be playing locally or provincially in order to stay healthy for the national team. Her selection is indicative of Kerr’s skill, but it’s also a testament to her inner drive, said Bateman coach Jen Ross. “She is extremely determined and hard-working, but what sets her apart is her love of the sport,� Ross said. And while rugby is known as a hard-hitting, fast-paced sport for uber-athletes, it’s the nuanced parts of the game that appeal most to Kerr. As a ball-distributing scrum-half, Kerr sounds like a chess grandmaster as she explains her love for rugby. “There’s a lot of thinking involved,� said Kerr. “During the game, I have to know my next move two moves ahead, before I can complete the first one.� Kerr doesn’t just enjoy thinking rugby. She likes thinking about thinking; she plans on studying psychology at the University of Victoria and will also likely suit up for the university’s rugby squad. With Canada’s women rugby team based nearby, she’ll be in a perfect spot to build upon her reputation as one of the country’s best young players. But that’s in the future. Today and tomorrow and the next day are about working out in the gym, practicing the fundamentals, and getting ready for China. “The work doesn’t stop,� she said. “You’ve got to keep going.�

TYLER OLSEN Abbotsford News
Abbotsford’s Lauren Kerr has been named to Canada’s women’s rugby sevens team for the upcoming Youth Olympic Games in Nanjing, China. She was the only player chosen from British Columbia.

The sun is beaming down, the mercury is edging toward 30 C and Lauren Kerr is standing in the middle of an empty field practicing her kick. The Robert Bateman secondary grad’s plans to try out for provincial and regional rugby squads this summer have been scuttled. Instead, she’s training six days a week, usually for upwards of four hours at a time. It’s not exactly how Kerr envisioned herself
exam/xrays/cleaning
spending her first month after high school, but her intensive training regimen comes with a big payoff. Kerr, 18, found out last week that she will be heading to China in August as part of Canada’s women’s rugby sevens squad at the Youth Olympic Games. She is the lone British Columbia player to make the team. With rugby making its debut at the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro, the youth team is a key stepping stone toward selection

Day camps at The Reach Full- and half-day sessions available for July and August camps are for ages six to 12. These include At the Art Cart Masterpieces, where kids will try art-making techniques only available in The Reach professional studio and create a group masterpiece that will be auctioned off to the public at a Reach fundraiser in September. The Art of Tinkering camp takes place from July 28 to Aug. 1, when participants will test, experiment and get involved in projects that demonstrate how art-making connects with science, math, writing and history. The History is Alive! camp-
The Reach Gallery Museum Abbotsford has added two more half-day camps to its summer lineup. One of these camps is Little Creators for ages three to five, running July 7 to 11 from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. This camp helps kids use age-appropriate materials and tools that are used daily in the art world. The other camp is The Book as Art for ages 13 to 17, running July 7 to 11 from 1 to 3 p.m. Participants will explore how artists use books as art objects. Full-day camps at The Reach run from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. and
ers will be out in the community from Aug. 11 to 15 to learn about Abbotsford in its early days. Long-time cartoonist and Abbotsford historian Ernie Poignant will share some of his work from decades as early as the 1930s and 1940s. Campers will engage in storytelling, illustration, and bringing back old traditions. For more information or to register for any of the camps, visit The Reach at 32388 Veterans Way or visit thereach. ca and click on “children and families” and then “camps at the reach.”

seats are supportive and comfortable. The rear seats too are comfy and slide for and aft for more cargo storage. When placed in the normal position, the legroom isn’t ample but on par with others in this class. Connecting to the Cherokee is a snap with the optional 8.4-inch Uconnect system that pairs with smartphone in seconds, is very quick between commands, and has nice looking graphics. The base screen is five inches but has many of the same functionality. Behind the steering wheel, inside the instrument cluster, is another programmable screen for all the information the driver needs frequently. Drive The base 2.4L 4-cylinder with 184hp is the base engine on all trim levels. For just $1,300 any Cherokee can be equipped with the optional 3.2L V6 engine – making the walk up to this 271hp engine within reach for many buyers. In addition, this is the very first application of a 9-speed automatic anywhere in the auto industry, providing improved fuel economy and drivability. Having a chance to drive both the 4-cylinder and V6 models with the all-new 9-speed automatic, I’m torn. The V6 is the engine of choice for towing, steep mountain

runs and longer distance driving. The flip side is that the 4-cylinder is a very good in-city commuter and the lighter engine helps this Cherokee to corner, brake and manouevre better. The 9-speed automatic shifts quickly and smoothly, in fact I forgot it had so many cogs but it does improve fuel economy with a highway rating of 6.4L/100km with the 4-cylinder and 7.0L with the V6. Most Canadians will opt for the AWD versions thanks to our winter conditions, but here too there are more choices. Jeep has included three AWD systems. The first is a called Active Drive 1 with a selectable drive mode called Select-Terrain, for automatic, snow, mud and sand settings. The second is called Active Drive 2 and offers a two-speed mode for low speed crawling. The most aggressive system is Active Drive Lock, which comes in the off-road purpose-built Cherokee called Trailhawk. The Trailhawk is a ‘real’ Jeep; this is thanks to a locking rear differential and a host of electronic aids. The most impressive feature is the low speed crawling mode for both up and down hill tasks. Therefore, Jeep purists, yes there is a Cherokee for you. Verdict This new Cherokee is off to a fantastic start. Sales are strong and the sharp design is bringing in buyers, not shoving them away. The 2014 Cherokee could not be further away from the last model; this is a thoroughly modern SUV with go-anywhere capability and aroundtown refinement that needs to be experienced.

Chrysler 200 similar but better than its predecessor by Bob McHugh
The Chrysler 200 was introduced for the 2011 model year and replaced the outgoing Sebring. It’s available as a mid-sized sedan, with coupe-like styling and a roomy interior,
as a hard or soft top convertible with two doors and four seats. The 200 is based on the same chassis as the outgoing Sebring but came with revised suspension geometry, stiffer body mounts, a raised roll centre, new sway bars and a wider rear track to improve both its ride and handling. There were also extensive upgrades to reduce cabin noise and these included acoustic lamination of the front door
windows and windshield. The 2011 edition of the 200 came in base LX, Touring, Limited and top-line S trim levels. The base engine is a 173-horsepower, 2.4-litre, 16-valve four-cylinder. A carry-over engine from Sebring, it provides good low-end torque, decent fuel economy and is mated with a reliable four-speed automatic. City/ highway fuel economy is 9.9/6.7 L/100km. Even the LX edition of the 200 comes with a very good equipment
package that includes a tilt and telescoping steering wheel, four-wheel disc brakes with an anti-lock system, remote keyless entry with a security alarm, power windows, locks and mirrors (heated) and air conditioning. The optional and newer 3.6-litre (Pentastar) V6 was a powertrain offering that came with a six-speed automatic. A quieter and smoother performer than the four-cylinder, this V6

space in the trunk. The hard-top, on the other hand, can provide a quieter cabin for occupants while driving and it’s more secure when parked. Active safety improved with the addition of both electronic stability control and traction control systems as standard equipment in all editions for the 2012 model year. Otherwise, the 200 was unchanged. Some new paint choices were added for the 2013 model year, but other than that the 200 was again unchanged. The 200 comes with an up-to-date complete passive safety package and its crash safety test ratings have been top-notch, both for the sedan and the convertible. In fact, the sedan achieved “Top Safety Pick” status with the IIHS (Insurance Institute for Highway Safety). Consumer Reports rates the 200 as “below average” for predicted reliability, “above average” for owner satisfaction and “average” for owner costs. Used prices are reasonable, from a buyer perspective, and there appears to be a good supply of sedans, but not too many convertibles, out there for sale. The Limited trim level visually adds 18-inch polished aluminum wheels, dual exhaust tailpipes, and inside upgrades include leather-faced seats. Like most Chrysler products the 200 offers high content and value, and it’s a good-looking car. bob.mchugh@drivewaybc.ca

Our hearts ache constantly for the wonderful man that God gave us and we grieve daily the loss of him as if it were yesterday. Words cannot express how our hearts feel, how lost we feel without him and how empty the space is that our beloved left. Our comfort is in knowing he is rejoicing with Jesus and that we will see his smiling face once again.
