An Abbotsford resolution demanding Health Canada hand over addresses of licensed medical marijuana growers was passed Wednesday by the Union of B.C. Municipalities convention in Whistler, despite opposition from some delegates over privacy concerns. The request – a repeat of past years’ – has B.C. cities wanting the information so they can mount inspections in the name of public safety. Cities fear unpermitted alterations, illegal rewiring and mould pose a risk not just to current residents but those who may in the future buy former grow-ops that aren’t remediated. “The safety of our residents and the safety of people buying these homes has to be paramount,” Abbotsford Mayor Bruce Banman told the convention.

Licensed medical marijuana home grows can be just as problematic in terms of fire and other safety hazards as illegal grow-ops, B.C. civic leaders say. The federal government is moving to a commercial mail order model of medical marijuana production, but that strategy is on hold pending court challenges from medical pot users. While Ottawa expects the legacy medical pot growers to voluntarily comply with the change and stop grow-

ing their own plants – if the new system is upheld – many cities doubt that will happen given the number of licensed users.

Banman said there are 829 licensed medical growers in Abbotsford and more than 900 – representing 20 per cent of the homes – in nearby Mission. “That’s a lot of glaucoma in my books,” said Banman, who has been a steady critic of the federal government’s refusal to identify the sites. He said there are just four Health Canada inspectors to check licensed medical home grows in all of western Canada, adding they could not inspect all of the licensed sites in Abbotsford alone if they were dedicated to his city for a year. Metchosin Coun. Moralea Milne said if the more than 1,700 licensed medical growers in Abbotsford-Mission

are an indication that “we should be legalizing that stuff if that many people are growing it.” Central Kootenay Regional District director Andy Shadrach agreed with calls for legalization and concerns around privacy. “On no other health issue do we go into people’s homes and say you’re not doing things right.” UBCM passed dozens of other resolutions Wednesday, including: - A Langley City call for the province develop a method to compensate cities for the time their firefighters spend on medical first responder calls that have increased as a result of provincial downgrading of ambulance response to lower priority 911 calls.

Cougar sightings down Vikki HOPES Abbotsford News

Reports of a cougar being spotted around Abbotsford have diminished and environment officials are hoping the animal has moved back into the wild. Don Stahl, a conservation officer with the B.C. Ministry of Environment, said a trap was set for the cougar for nine days earlier this month after four reports of it venturing into residential areas. The cat, which would have been euthanized, was not captured and the trap was removed. Stahl said after an Abbotsford News report was published about the four sightings, two more people came forward to say they had come across the cougar. The first four sightings to be reported had occurred Aug. 3 on Discovery Trail, Aug. 20 on Rathtrevor Court,

Sept. 4 in the area of Whatcom Road and Old Yale Road, and Sept. 9 near Batt and Bakstad roads. One of the two additional sightings took place Aug. 28 while a group was hiking in the dark, using headlamps, near the McKee lookout and Discovery Trail by Ledgeview Golf Course. The other sighting was about two weeks ago on a Sumas Mountain forest service road. Stahl said residents of the home of the Sept. 9 sighting had several of their backyard chickens killed and set up a video camera near their chicken coop but have not reported seeing the cougar again nor have any other sightings been called in. Stahl encourages anyone who spots a cougar to report it as soon as possible by calling 1-877-952-7277. He said conservation officers get up to 15 reports annually of cougar sightings here.

Abbotsford Homeowners Want to Know The Value of Their Home, But Are Afraid to Ask! Abbotsford – A hassle-free service allows homeowners to receive up to date real estate market information speciÀc to their home without having to meet with a real estate agent. Some homeowners are reluctant to meet with a realtor as they may only be in the early stages of planning a move or may not yet know if they will move. “Should we sell or stay? How much equity do we actually have?” Often these questions cannot be answered without knowing the current value of your home. Determining the value of your home is based largely on comparing your home to similar homes that have recently sold. This comparative approach should consider several factors – features of each home, location, neighbourhood, length of time on the market, etc. However, access to this type of information is generally re-

served for the real estate agents and their clients. This free service provides each homeowner with a Real Estate Market Update speciÀc to their property. This update includes detailed sales information of similar homes that have recently sold within the homeowner’s area, as well as the current listings. This data includes a photograph of each home, asking prices and selling prices, the number of days on the market, price reductions and a complete description of each home. To have a free Market Update sent to you, specially tailored for your home, call this 24 hour free recorded message at 1-800-251-4944, enter extension #4811. This hassle free, no obligation service is provided by Rod Poole of Landmark Realty Corp. You may also call Rod’s ofÀce directly at 604-309-6068.

Ride underway after emotional send-off Junior team member Josh Ismirnioglou remembered Tyler OLSEN Abbotsford News

Twenty-two cyclists hit the road Thursday to begin the Cops for Cancer Tour de Valley after an emotional send-off at the school of a former junior team member. The 800-kilometre journey is raising money for pediatric cancer research and has already garnered hundreds of thousands of dollars in donations this year. The tour began Thursday morning at St. John Brebeuf secondary, where former junior team member Josh Ismirnioglou went to school. Ismirnioglou died last year at the age of 14 after a long battle with cancer, and at the time many Cops For Cancer riders attended his funeral in the St. John Brebeuf gym. On Thursday, the riders returned to a rousing ovation and spoke about the inspiration they drew

A Cops For Cancer rider gets his head shaved during the send-off for the Tour De Valley riders Thursday at St. John Brebeuf secondary. from Ismirnioglou and children like him, the names of whom adorn the bikes of the various riders. Team leader and Abbotsford Police Department Const. Trevor Sales spent time with Ismirnioglou and watched him battle cancer. Now, Ismirnioglou’s name is emblazoned on the forks of Sales’s bike. “The kids that we ride

for are very special to us and to be able to do this tour is a huge honour,” Sales told the students. “Some of them win [their battles with cancer], some of them don’t, but through it all they inspire us.” The riders received received special bead necklaces from junior team member and cancer survivors Liam Unger and Kayla Sloan.

Sales told students how many children with cancer enter a necklace program in which they get a bead for every treatment they receive. Many necklaces boast dozens of beads. The unbeaded necklaces given to riders are meant to inspire the cyclists on their ride. Three riders also had their heads shaved, to the raucous enjoyment

of the St. John Brebeuf students. The cyclists, including Sales, APD Consts. Jody Thomas and Daryl Young, and Canadian Border Services officer Frank Donaghy, will ride for eight days throughout the Lower Mainland and up to Boston Bar. Along the way, they will stop at schools and businesses to raise money and promote the cause. After a series of school appearances in Abbotsford Thursday, the cyclists head up the valley and the Fraser Canyon. They will return to Abbotsford and Mission on Monday. As the riders pedal their way through the valley, Sales said the appearances at schools and businesses energize the cyclists and keep them moving toward their goal. “It’s about the kids,” he said.

This empty propane car derailed from a siding in Matsqui on Tuesday morning.

Empty train car derails Tyler OLSEN

Car left track and rolled into ditch

Abbotsford News

An empty propane rail car that derailed from a siding in Matsqui early Tuesday morning has now been extracted from the ditch into which it rolled. The incident occurred while crews we re sw i t ch i n g cars, said Southern Railway of B.C. (SRY) director of community relations Singh Biln. Abbotsford fire crews responded, “performed a sniff test and left after concluding that there was no propane leaking.” The cause of the derailment is under investigation, but Biln said the car left the track at a safety derail device on a siding at around 3 a.m. Tuesday. “The safety derail device was effective in preventing [the car] from entering the mainline,” Biln said. A derail device is a metal instrument that locks onto a track and causes runaway cars to leave the railroad, rather than enter a mainline or

other active track. Although empty, the car was still considered a dangerous goods car, causing SRY to enact a special protocol for such incidents.

Overnight, cranes were used to hoist the car out of the ditch and onto a trailer. The car was then taken to a nearby lot in Matsqui, where officials flared off the

residual propane. Once flaring was complete, Biln said the company would decide whether to repair or scrap the car, with the latter outcome more likely.

Rapist charged with murder What is wrong with the system letting this horrific offender out? I just can’t fathom this! Valerie Webber Simms The laws need to change so that high risk offenders are not allowed out ever! Kelly Clayton He should have never been released now I wish he would fry. I have never been pro-death penalty until now. High risk to reoffend and he taunted the courts when he was sentenced that he would be back. Light him up. George Roux

Avoid a parking ticket Shame on you, Alliance Ticket Services, for not providing adequate and clear signage to inform drivers that they will be ticketed if they use your lot on Simon Avenue and are not visiting Galaxy Bowl, BC BIO Medical, Fraser Health Office or Valley Medical Imaging. I’ve parked in this location on three or four occasions in the past without realizing that those visits were okay because I unknowingly was visiting one of the four offices listed on your poorly marked sign. Not so today when I ventured to the Windermere Clinic. During the five minutes I was away, your

parking attendant had issued a ticket. I later learned that your parking attendant watches where people walk once they leave their vehicles and if it isn’t one of the four locations described, a ticket is immediately issued. This a warning for others who plan to visit Service Canada or any of the many medical offices located along Simon Avenue. Look for this poorly marked sign on the parking lot opposite Valley Medical Imaging and avoid a $43 ticket. J. McGill Abbotsford

Transit must be affordable Having a bus that connects Abbotsford to Chilliwack and Metro Vancouver is an important step forward in creating a regional transit network. However, when I look through the pricing of the proposed service I can’t help but wonder if the FVRD and BC Transit are trying to kill the service before it starts. The Fraser Valley Express has a suggested fare of $6 per ride regardless of distance. It will not allow transfers from

the Chilliwack, Abbotsford, or TransLink transit systems. This means a weekday trip from Sevenoaks Shopping Centre to Vancouver will cost the rider $13.75. The same trip via the 21 Aldergrove Connector and the 503 to the SkyTrain is only $7.75. A savings of $6 each way, or $12 for a round trip Presently, minimum wage in B.C. is at $10.25/hour before taxes. So we are asking low wage

earners to work approximately 90 minutes before they can afford to ride the Fraser Valley Express. And this doesn’t cover the extra fares from Abbotsford and TransLink buses. In order for transit to be effective, it must be affordable to use. And it has to be priced competitive to existing services. Ken Wuschke Abbotsford

She has nine years’ experience in economic development including two years as business development lead at the Abbotsford International Airport. Sandy has earned certified economic development accreditation from the International Economic Development Council and accredited business communicator from the International Association of Business Communicators. As well, she holds Canadian ecoBLUE nomic development certification from the Economic Developers Association of Canada and University of Waterloo.

Blue was previously nominated for the YWCA Women of Distinction Award. She serves on the Urban Developers Institute Fraser Valley Committee, and is a frequent presenter to audiences including the recent Fraser Valley Economic Summit. “Enhanced economic growth strategies and better management of our many assets will lead to numerous benefits for our community and help solve the city’s long-term debt challenges.” AbbotsfordFIRST includes four other previously announced candidates Ross Siemens, Kelly Chahal, Vince Dimanno and Brenda Falk.

Cartoonist donates $8,300 to Canuck Place Long-time cartoonist and Abbotsford historian Ernie Poignant recently donated more than $8,000 to Canuck Place Children’s Hospice in Abbotsford. The funds were collected through the sale of the book Poignant Moments, a 48-page, magazine-style publication filled with Poignant’s cartoons. The book was released in 2012 and showcases everything from his first cartoon, drawn in 1937, to his latest works. Poignant, 95, presented a cheque of $8,350 on Sept. 19 to Canuck Place, located on the Dave

All five players suited up for the Junior Cascades this past summer, after having previously played together on the B.C. U15 team. “It started an off-court and an on-court bond really early, so that when we do get to UFV, our relationship off the court will translate into success really quickly,” Claggett said.

Traditionally, most elite high school basketball players decide their post-secondary destinations in the spring, and signing this talented crew so early in the school year is a huge coup for Cascades coach Al Tuchscherer. “From a recruiting standpoint, it doesn’t get any better than that – getting kids to commit early,” he said. “It shows where our program

Turtles euthanized due to overcrowding Reptile rescue can no longer adopt certain turtles to the public Alex BUTLER Abbotsford News

About 50 turtles were euthanized last week after a local reptile rescue was told it could no longer adopt the redeared sliders out to the public. Mike Hopcraft, owner

and operator of The Reptile Guy’s Rescue and Education Centre, takes in unwanted or injured reptiles and for some time has struggled with large numbers of surrendered turtles. Last year, Hopcraft urged Abbotsford city

council to restrict the sale of turtles under four inches long, hoping that would stop pet stores from buying large number of red-eared sliders, which eventually grow to about a foot long. Hopcraft said often people will surrender

them to the facility, or release them into local ponds where they are outnumbering native species like the endangered Western Painted Turtle. Council voted down the proposal. But now, Hopcraft says the province has stopped the facility from adopting the turtles out to people who are ready to take care of them. He said the red-eared sliders are restricted under the provincial wildlife act. He has received conflicting information from the ministry of environment about what can be done with the turtles, but said he’s been told that he cannot adopt them out. “They’ve been sold in pet stores forever, and all of a sudden, they’ve started enforcing these laws that have apparently been there forever. Now there are a whole lot of turtles that are paying the price.” A spokesperson for the ministry provided infor-

mation saying that redeared sliders are considered wildlife under the Wildlife Act and that in most circumstances it is an offence to traffic or sell the animals. It is also an offence to transport, release, export or import live red-eared sliders without a permit and people are encouraged not to keep them as pets. Hopcraft’s facility has a pond with a limit of 75 turtles in order to keep it clean. Currently, there are 105, and 21 were euthanized in January. He said despite the fact that 50 more turtles have been euthanized, “we’ll replace those 50 by the end of the year.” Hopcraft said he agrees that red-eared sliders shouldn’t be sold, but now he has to deal with the consequences of them being for sale. He is trying to raise $25,000 for a bigger building that could also accommodate more turtles, but he said even with an increase capac-

Hopcraft said unfortunately, there is no end in sight for this problem, as turtles can live for around 40 years. Hopcraft said it is difficult for him to hold the animals while they are euthanized, but he

has been left with no choice. “I’m here to help them, not to kill them.” He said that he wants to warn people to take care when they take in an animal and make sure they can commit to its care. For more, visit thereptileguy.ca.

ABBOTSFORD’S ACTIVE ADULTS A local monthly guide to events, resources and services for active adults

October 2014

Working for a positive impact Stan Petersen likes to stay active while working and volunteering in Abbotsford. the Abbotsford School District for 34 years, he says retirement has brought other excitement, including his work as a school trustee and his involvement in a variety of committees. In fact, he is involved in so GOLDEN SERVICE FOR THE many initiatives it GOLDEN GENERATION would nearly take this page to mention them all. Some of those include serving as chair of the Abbotsford Sports Hall of Fame Selection Committee, 604-309-0540 and Hands Up for John@JohnCorrie.Com the Community, a www.JohnCorrie.com group of Abbotsford citizens who LITTLE OAK REALTY organize community events and doFREE EVALUATIONS CALL JOHN

While Stan Petersen considers himself to be “fairly north” of 55, that hasn’t caused him to stop doing what he loves. After working as an educator in

nate all proceeds to local agencies. He is the vice-president of the Abbotsford Youth Commission, and is on the organizing committee of both the Abbotsford Police City Basketball Tournament, and the AbbyFest Multicultural Society. If that wasn’t enough to fill up his time, he is also on the education committee for Heart to Heart Haiti, a charity based in Abbotsford that helps provide education, food and access to health services for children living in poverty. This January he will travel to Haiti for the 12th time. And that is only scratching the surface of Petersen’s involvement in the community, excluding his personal activities. So how does he manage to do it all? “You cannot work with youth and not maintain a youthful attitude,” he

says. “I remain active playing masters basketball, tennis, floor hockey, and the occasional golf game. Also, as a new grandpa I get to spend lots of time with my granddaughter, and that definitely keeps me going.” Petersen considers Abbotsford a great place to work, live and raise a family. It is through his volunteer work that he is able to give back to a community that has brought him so much joy, as well as allowed him to interact with like-minded people who also aim to have a positive impact. It was here where he met his wife, and put his kids through school. “I appreciate the diversity of our community, our gorgeous natural setting, and the growing number of opportunities available to all who live in Abbotsford,” says Petersen, who isn’t done seizing those oppor-

tunities himself. “I would love the privilege of serving as an Abbotsford school trustee for at least one more term. I would like to see our work in Haiti grow and continue to show the success that we have seen over the last several years. I would also like to stay in playing shape to be able to continue playing masters basketball and compete in the World Masters Games in Auckland in 2017.” For Petersen, the key to a happy, healthy life is to stay active in both mind and body, and to have a purpose in doing so. “I have found that being involved in community and volunteer events gives me both purpose and satisfaction,” he says. “I enjoy every day that I can be with family and with friends, and any day that I can make a positive contribution to others.”

Donâ€™t catch a cold How many times did you hear your parents say, â€œPut a jacket on or you will catch a coldâ€?? We know from Dr. Chris Vallee science that we donâ€™t actually get viruses from cold weather, but in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), cold is still a concern. On a chilly day, the wind can weaken our immune system by bringing the cold into our bodies. So wearing a jacket or sweater in colder seasons is a very smart thing to do. It also can be called preventive medicine, as we are making sure the body stays in balance and does not have to work overtime to stay warm. Less stress in the body means a stronger immune system. Western medicine looks at a common cold as a virus that one catches and which triggers our immune system, resulting in symptoms such as headaches, running nose, and fevers. TCM explains that being cold puts our immune system under stress because the body has too much cold energy. So how do we treat this? We add warmth and try to restore balance in the body. It can be just that simple. A western folk

Easy ways to improve memory Everyone forgets things from time to time. Periodically forgetting where you left your keys is likely not indicative of a bad memory. But some people find themselves forgetting things more frequently, a troubling development for those who can’t explain their sudden loss of memory. Memory loss is often considered to go hand-in-hand with aging. As a person ages, conventional wisdom suggests memory will begin to fade. But sometimes memory loss has nothing to do with aging, and a lot to do with a brain that isn’t sharp because of an unhealthy lifestyle. The following are a few ways men and women can improve their memory. Q Get some sleep. Men and women who aren’t getting enough sleep can almost certainly blame that lack of shut-eye for at least some of their memory loss. When you don’t get enough sleep, your brain’s ability to think critically, solve problems and even be creative is compromised considerably. In addition, research has shown that memory-enhancing activities occur during the deepest stages of sleep, further highlighting the importance of getting a full night of interruption-free rest. Q Hit the gym. Exercise is another activity that can improve memory.

ciently, emphasizing planning ahead or even vowing to stop procrastinating. Other ways to manage stress include making time to relax and recognizing that you have limits while seeking the help of others.

Daily physical exercise increases the amount of oxygen that gets to your brain while reducing the risk for certain disorders, including diabetes and cardiovascular disease, both of which can lead to memory loss. Q Manage stress effectively. Stress has a host of negative side effects, not the least of which is its impact on your memory. Chronic stress that goes untreated can destroy brain cells and damage the region of the brain that deals with the formation of new memories as well as the retrieval of older memories. Numerous studies have shown that men and women cite their career as their primary source of stress. Since quitting your job is likely not an option, find ways to manage your stress more effectively. This may mean finding a way to make the most of your time, be it working more effi-

Q Make some dietary changes. Diet can also have an impact on memory. What you eat is fuel for both your body and your brain, and a poor diet can have a negative impact on your memory. Be sure to include omega-3 fatty acids, sources of which include salmon, tuna and other cold water fatty fish, in your diet. Research has shown that omega-3 fatty acids, which can also be found in walnuts, can boost brain power and possibly reduce your risk for Alzheimer’s disease. A diet high in saturated fat, which is found in red meat, whole milk, butter and cheese, has been found to have a negative impact on memory. Research has shown that such a diet increases a person’s risk of developing dementia while impairing an individual’s ability to concentrate and remember things. Loss of memory is often a momentary lapse, but those who find themselves becoming more and more forgetful can take steps to improve their memory and their quality of life.

BALL a CALL?

Human Connection â€“ the Loneliness Solution I recently became aware of an advertising campaign by the United Way. They said â€œLonely seniors die sooner â€“ do something about it.â€? Sharon Simpson My way of doing something about it is to write a bit about it and provide some direction and hope. I overheard a conversation recently. One elderly woman was lamenting the f recent losses in her life, including the loss of her vision and her driverâ€™s license. She had recently moved into an independent living apartment and was grieving the loss of her own home. She asked another elderly woman if this grief was a shared experience. The second woman replied, â€œWell, I spent two years all alone in my home with no one to talk to, so moving into a community of people has become my saving grace.â€? Loneliness. Psychologists say that it is not a natural condition â€“ itâ€™s a symptom, like physical pain that signals something is not right. Itâ€™s different from depression in that lonely people are seeking social connection while depression craves social isolation. When my daughter was in elementary school, we had an annual â€œGrandparents Appreciation Lunchâ€?. The principal asked how many students had grandparents living in their home. One or two hands went up. Next, he asked how many of the grandparents shared

a home with their grandparents when they were children. Almost every grandparentâ€™s hand went up. What a difference! In two generations, our culture has changed from an intergenerational family home to many singular generations living independently. Living alone is certainly one of our cultureâ€™s visible signals of success, upward mobility and affluence. Loneliness can come by surprise. Seniors can spend most of their lives with strong social connections and suddenly find that they are faced with loneliness and the challenge of finding new connections. What can you do about loneliness? 1. Tell someone that you are lonely.

Loneliness is a curable condition, but there is only one cure â€“ human connection. It will take courage for you to approach someone for help. Pick a safe member of your family or church and share your situation. 2. Participate in a community for as long as it is possible - particularly a community that has multiple generations involved. A church is a multi-generational community. Take the initiative to sit on a pew with people from another generation. Initiate a conversation each week and forge a new friendship. 3. Spend money to ensure that you can participate. You may have to take a taxi to get to church and that can be

expensive. Consider it the cost of a prescription against loneliness. 4. Take the initiative with your grandchildren. Do you only see your grandchildren at family dinners? Why not invite each grandchild to spend time with you one-on-one? Grandchildrenâ€™s lives are full of interesting new activities, thoughts and friendships. Their friendship will be a God-send to you now and in the years to come. 5. Get help with your hearing. Loss of hearing is a major reason that people isolate themselves from others. If you canâ€™t understand what othersâ€™ are saying, you canâ€™t engage in the conversation. If you already have a hearing aide and are still struggling, take a class in

â€œspeech reading (lip, face, context)â€? or buy an assisted listening device to enhance your ability to hear. The longer you wait to get a hearing aide, the longer it will take your brain to adjust to hearing certain sounds again. 6. Explore community living. Your large empty home will never be the answer to your loneliness. People are the answer. Connection is the answer â€“ and there are abundant daily connections with staff and residents in an independent living apartment building. Seniors who live in community find that they eat more wholesome food, are less prone to depression and have more daily conversations and connections. Are you lonely? Today is the day to do something about it. There are people who care and communities that are set up to increase connections for seniors. Donâ€™t suffer another day. Sharon Simpson is the Director of Communications and Marketing at Menno Place, a seniorâ€™s campus-of-care located in Abbotsford.

Delay dementiaâ€”could hearing aids be the answer? Seniors who have untreated hearing loss may be at an increased risk for developing dementia, a loss of brain function that can affect memory, thinking, ODQJXDJH MXGJPHQW DQG EHKDYLRU 7KLV LV WKH ÂżQGLQJ of a study conducted by researchers from the Division of Otology at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. The study included 639 people whose hearing and

Researchers found that study participants who had hearing loss at WKH EHJLQQLQJ RI WKH VWXG\ ZHUH VLJQLÂżFDQWO\ PRUH likely to develop dementia by the end of the study. How might hearing loss and dementia be connected? Investigators arenâ€™t sure, but they think a common pathology may underlie both conditions, or possibly

mystery, Penny begins breaking all the rules and finally tries to escape, but what she uncovers is far more devastating than she could have imagined. Johnson said the book is expected to be released early next year, and it will be available in most major bookstores. She said The Boundary took her four years to write, and she had four publisher rejections before being accepted by Lodestone, whose U.S./ Canada headquarters is in Blue Ridge Summit, Pennsylvania. The following two books in the triology follow the friends’ journey, spanning five years. The series is aimed at 13- to 17-year-olds. Johnson was born in Huntington in the UK and lived in Ottawa for a few years before moving to Abbotsford nearly five years ago. She is a Grade 11 student at Robert Bateman secondary and hopes to study for a bachelor of arts in English when she graduates.

The fifth annual Afternoon in Paradiso takes place on Sunday, Sept. 28 from 2 to 5 p.m. at the Phoenix Lounge (33780 King Rd.). The event is a fundraiser for the B.C. Cancer Foundation and includes wine and food sampling, auctions and entertainment. Last year, Afternoon in Paradiso raised $40,000, which went toward the purchase of a gastroscope to enable oncologists to deliver radiation treatment to esophageal cancer patients. Funds raised at this year’s event are for research projects at the BC Cancer Agency’s Abbotsford centre. For information and tickets, call Rachel at 604-851-4736 or email rmitchell@bccancer. bc.ca. Tickets can also be ordered online by searching “Paradiso” under the “upcoming events” link at bccancerfoundation.com

It’s hard to believe that Abby Fest is right around the corner. Actually, it starts tomorrow morning (Saturday, Sept. 27) and runs from 10 a.m. – 8 p.m. at the Agri Fair Building. It’s in its seventh year. The event features all-day entertainment, a beer garden, multicultural food trucks, and more than 60 booths highlighting every facet of our community. The festival attracts more than 4,000 visitors each year. It’s always fun for all ages. For those who may struggle with the acceptance of diversity, this is a great venue to challenge yourself and learn about the people and organizations that exist in our community. Diversity is simply about people and that is what Abby Fest is simply about. After shaking so many hands and having amazing conversations, I always walk away so fulfilled every time I attend this event. Preet Rai, a school trustee in Abbotsford and one of the organizers of Abby Fest, said, “We have so much multicultural talent in our community and Abby Fest features this talent through its colourful dances and mouthwatering multicultural cuisine. The festival is a relaxing way to enjoy the diversity of our beautiful city with family and friends.” I recently had a friend who contacted me about how she wanted her son to learn more about diversity. I met for coffee with Sabrina and her son Erik, and I gave him a Cycling4Diversity shirt and explained to him what it meant. He was thrilled to have one and shared the message with his friends

and classmates. For those who have young children, this is a great opportunity to open their minds to different things that exist in our com-

munity. All it takes is just one amazing moment to change a growing mind forever. This y e a r, Cycling4Diversity

Foundation will be having a dunk tank at the event and we encourage everyone come out and take down a few members. Come and get some-

one wet in the name of diversity. C4D executive coordinator Anne-Marie Sjoden said, “After great success with the ride this past

spring and the many other events like the dunk tank at Mission Fest, we decided to bring it back again to Abby Fest for everyone’s enjoyment.”

INTERIOR TO LOWER MAINLAND TRANSMISSION PROJECT CONSTRUCTION UPDATE BC Hydro’s contractors for the Interior to Lower Mainland Transmission Project will be burning wood debris piles on BC Hydro’s right-of-way this fall and winter. The contractor has obtained the necessary provincial and municipal permits and will comply with all regulations for this work. This work is very weather dependent and may need to start and stop over several months until completion. A key requirement is that the contractor does not conduct burning unless the venting index is “good”. This ensures proper air movement exists to minimize smoke impacts to people in the vicinity of the burning.

Country superstar Alan Jackson returned to Abbotsford Tuesday night for a good time. The music legend provided fans with an intimate concert, offering insight into his life and songwriting ideas. With 35 No. 1 country singles, fans were treated to 25 years of hits which included everything from his debut song “Here in the Real World” to “Chattahoochee,” “Pop a Top,” and “Five O’Clock Somewhere.” Cheering fans counted down with a clock on large video screens to bring Jackson on stage. His silhouette appeared behind a white curtain, which dropped as he kicked off the show with “Good Time.” “It’s good to see you all tonight. It’s a nice crowd here,” said Jackson following his opening performance at the Abbotsford Centre. “People love real country music, so that’s what we’re going to play tonight. I know it’s only a Tuesday night, but y’all feel like a Friday night crowd.” With steel guitar and fiddle woven into every

nice to me. I thank you all for all the support.” Jackson then performed a song recorded with the Zac Brown Band, “As She’s Walking Away.” He closed his set with the hit “Where I Come From,” which featured a video montage of Abbotsford playing on the multiscreen backdrop while he performed. Fans cheered loudly when images of Castle Fun Park, Townhall Public House, Tim Horton’s, Essendene Avenue, Finnegan’s Pub, and logos of local sports teams appeared on the screens. After Jackson left the stage, the crowd continued to cheer until he returned to close the night with a cover of “Mercury Blues.” In the middle of the song, he took time to sign several autographs for fans in front of the stage who lifted up everything from shirts and posters to cowboy hats and boots.

UFV women’s basketball team gets early commitments from blue-chip high schoolers Dan KINVIG Abbotsford News

“National championship.” That’s the first thing out of Taylor Claggett’s mouth – without missing a beat – when asked what she and four of her closest friends are capable of accomplishing together over the course of their five-year careers with the University of the Fraser Valley women’s basketball team. The other four blue-chip high school seniors who recently signed with the

Cascades – Amanda Thompson, Kate Head and twin sisters Alicia and Cierra Roufosse – quickly chime in in agreement. This is their shared dream. “I think we’ll have a lot of ups and downs getting there,” Cierra Roufosse says, “but as long as we stick together and motivate each other, it’s definitely a possibility.” Indeed, while winning Canadian Interuniversity Sport (CIS) gold is a lofty goal, it’s not far-fetched when Continued on A38

Sports In Brief

Martial arts medalists Athletes from Abbotsford’s Genesis Martial Arts and Fitness excelled at the American National JiuJitsu Championship, held recently in Los Angeles. Jason Gagnon celebrated back-to-back championships, winning the brown belt adult featherweight division for the second straight year. Jason Tiegen also made a trip to the top step of the podium, taking gold in the blue belt masters 3 super heavyweight division. Silver medalists from the local club included Steve McLaughlin (white belt, masters 2 middle heavy), Aman Sidhu (white belt adult featherweight) and Lloyd Handy (blue belt masters 3 heavy), while Clayton Rutherford (purple belt adult super heavy) brought home a bronze medal.

Hockey marathon Earlier this month, 64 hockey players came together to play 10 straight hours of hockey, and combined to raise upwards of $74,000 for a pair of non-profit organizations. The 10th annual Hockey Marathon of Hope, held at Centre Ice in Abbotsford, featured an appearance by former Vancouver Canuck Darcy Rota, and a conversation via phone with Canadian hockey legend Paul Henderson, who scored the gamewinning goal in the 1972 Summit Series against the Soviet Union. Participants were asked to raise at least $1,000 each towards the event's charitable causes – Doing Family Right, a Christian ministry to strengthen families, and the Imani Orphan Care Foundation, which operates facilities in Kenya – and they combined to set a new single-year record for total funds raised. Organizers expressed appreciation to the players, volunteers and sponsors.

Haslam, Rustulka victorious at zone golf tournament Val Haslam’s round of 78 was good for first place in the women’s division, while Grace Rustulka shot 84 to win the senior women’s title. Nathan Bahnman turned in a terrific effort in the junior men’s category, finishing second (round of 79), while Brian Bates (75) was third in the men’s division and Paul Kerbrat (77) was third in the senior men’s

event. The Ledgeview crew also combined to tie for first place in the team event with Mission Golf and Country Club. That competition is decided by combining the three lowest individual scores for each club, including one women’s score, and the local trio of Bates, Kerbrat and Haslam shot a combined score of 230.

and I watched him head back towards the river. I

continued on the road for another 10 minutes and around a tight corner, still

thinking about the bear when all of a sudden I see

a big patch of black sprinting in front of my truck. I eased up on the throttle

and watched another bear running down the road. He was quite scared so I gave him lots of room. He jumped off the road and down a steep hill taking out several small trees on the way down. I felt a little sorry for him having to do that. I couldn’t see him anymore but I was sure he was okay. The idea of fishing was suddenly less appealing.

MT. LEHMAN RD

One nice hot sunny day in August found me in the Upper Squamish valley, four wheeling and fishing along the river. Nothing out of the ordinary happened until a fish and wildlife officer pulled up next to my truck, walked over to the river bank to ask me how the fishing was going. I showed him one Dolly Varden trout that was about 12 lbs. and told him I hadn’t had a bite for the past hour. He smiled, wished me good luck and warned me to be careful, as there has been bears in the area including a grizzly. I smiled and said thanks. Two minutes after he left, I was looking over my shoulder every thirty seconds. I decided to pack up and try somewhere else. I climbed back into my truck and proceeded down the road. The conditions were very dusty and the narrow logging road was covered in a heavy coating of dust. A short way up the road I felt a sneeze coming on. I pulled over and proceeded to sneeze. The vehicle windows were down and it was loud enough to echo through the dust covered tall grass to the left of me. To my surprise, a black bear stood up in the tall grass. He must have been two metres tall judging from the height of my truck. The massive bear strained to see through the dust and make out where the noise came from, lifting his noise in an attempt to pick up my scent. I watched him for about a minute although

it seemed like an hour had past. As quickly as he popped up, he was down again and out of sight. I wanted to make sure he was gone before I moved on, so I gave a toot on my horn. Up goes the massive bear again looking around. He was a lot closer this time, so I laid into the horn and revved up my engine. At first he continued to stand tall but soon realized it wasn’t worth the effort to continue. He darted off

Not too late to realize that convertible dream

D Cab SR5 MODEL SHOWN

TUNDRA by Bob McHugh

Buy now and park it until next spring! With cooler weather ahead, fall can be an opportune time to snag a great deal on that dream-ride convertible you’ve always wanted to own, like the soft-top edition of Chevrolet Camaro. Chevrolet introduced an all-new Camaro Coupe for the 2010 model year and the Camaro Convertible followed a year later. While it shares many similar styling details, this modern day rebirth of Camaro is

longer and wider than the celebrated original ‘67, of the “muscle car” era. Big wheels (18-inch to massive 21-inch rim sizes) are an important design feature of new Camaro and it’s a little taller. The 2011 Camaro Convertible was offered in just LT and SS trim levels. The LT comes with a lightweight and powerful “LFX” 3.6-litre V6 engine. It can generate 323 horsepower and is mated to either a six-speed manual transmission or a six-speed automatic. Revised and more realistic new fuel economy (auto) ratings are 12.9 L/100km in city and 8.1 L/100km on highway. A potent 6.2-litre V8 engine (from the Corvette) lies Continued on page 29

Fun with a softtop

under the hood of Camaro SS. When paired with a sixspeed manual it’s tuned to pump out 425 horsepower. A 400 horsepower edition of this same engine (with more low-speed torque and a fuel saving cylinder deactivation system) is paired with a six-speed automatic transmission. The revised fuel rating for Camaro SS (auto) is 14.9 L/100km in city and 9.5 L/100km on highway. There is a key engineering difference between Chevrolet’s Camaro and, its nemesis, the Ford Mustang. While both vehicles send gobs of engine power to the rear wheels, Mustang has a rigid rear axle and Camaro has a more sophisticated independent link system with half-shafts and coil springs attached to an isolated sub-frame. In theory, Camaro should be a better riding and handling sports car but that debate rolls on. A limited edition high-performance Camaro ZL1 arrived in 2012. It came with a supercharged 6.2-litre V8 engine that can produce an outrageous 580 horsepower … and it has obvious collector car potential. A special 45th Anniversary Package was also offered that year. Other than some packing revisions and new colour choices, there were no significant changes to the 2013 or the 2014 model year editions of Camaro. While it may be hard to find practical reasons to buy a sports car like Camaro, it did make it on the Consumer Reports list of “recommended” good, reliable cars to buy. A Camaro Convertible is also even less practical and more expensive than the Coupe. Then again, it’s a hoot to drive, especially with the top down! bob.mchugh@drivewaybc.ca Check out some of the reasons why Nissan is

WATSON MARTIN

Betty

Frances Margaret May “Marjorie” (nee Costen) 1917 ~ 2014

It is with sorrow we must announce the quiet passing of Betty Watson on September 14th, 2014 at Tabor Home in Abbotsford, at the age of 94. Betty was much loved and will be greatly missed by all who knew her. Her family includes locals Tina and Gerry Jensen, Diane Gilbraith, and Terence Gilbraith; as well as daughters Coral and Pearl in England; plus many grandchildren and great grandchildren, nieces and nephews in BC, Washington, Nevada, Alberta, England, and Australia. Betty was predeceased by Jess, her adoring husband of 34 years in 1989; and by her 7 younger siblings. The family would like to extend heartfelt thanks to the staff of Tabor Home for their loving care of Betty during the last years of her life. A private family Celebration of Life will be held in Langley. In memoriam donations can be made to the Breast Cancer Foundation, Tabor Home Society or the charity of your choice.

After a long and meaningful life, our dear mother and grandmother passed away peacefully in her sleep on September 22 in her 97th year. She will be lovingly remembered by her five children, Lois (George) Gray, Sharon (John) Sutherland, Murray Martin, Esther (David) Robins, Graham (Wendy) Martin, fourteen grandchildren, and nine great-grandchildren, as well as her two sisters-inlaw, Betty Costen and Annie Martin, and many nieces and nephews. She was predeceased by her husband, Jake, and brothers, Ray and Don Costen. Mom was born in Boissevain, Manitoba in 1917 and raised in villages in southeast Manitoba. She moved to Ottawa during WWII to work for the government. There she met our dad, Jacob M. Martin, married, and raised our family. At the same time, she supported his dedicated work as owner and manager of Scripture Bookstore. Mom taught us the value of walking with God, the importance of a good work ethic, and the joy of living for others. She modeled stoicism and faith. Even through the months of her final illness, she showed acceptance, patience, and grace. Our family wishes to thank Dr. Ken Dueck of Abbotsford for the patient and loving care he gave to our mother over the last many years, and Dr. Peter Barnsdale of Mission who supervised Mom’s care when she moved to The Residence in Mission in April. A heartfelt thank you also goes to the staff at TRiM, especially the Stave Falls neighborhood, who lovingly cared for Mom in the frailty of her last months. A tribute to Mom’s life will be held in Ottawa on October 4. “Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning.” Psalms 30:5 We’ll see you in the morning, Mom!
