SERVING MISSION SINCE 1908

Police and hazard materials crews worked to clean up a major illegal drug lab in Mission last year at the cost of hundreds of thousands of dollars to the district.

Property owners targeted for drug operation clean-up District intends to bill owners of ecstasy lab property for nearly $150,000 Carol Aun MISSION RECORD

The District of Mission spent hundreds of thousands of dollars last fall to clean up a property near the corner of Glasgow Avenue and Horne Street that was used as a synthetic drug lab. Now, the district is hoping to recover some of the money and prevent similar incidents in the future with a new bylaw aimed at making property owners pay for such clean-ups.

“The bylaw is to recover costs from events directly related to controlled substance on the property,” said Fire Chief Larry Watkinson, who proposed the bylaw in light of the Sept. 6 incident, which was cited as one of the largest drug labs ever found in the Lower Mainland. Last September, Mission firefighters were called to a structure fire at 7191 Horne Street that was caused by a chemical reaction. The chemicals were located in a shed which was accessed from an alley

off of Glasgow Avenue, and was not connected or related to neighbouring businesses. Firefighters evacuated the building and called RCMP after recognizing products commonly used in clandestine drug labs. Nearby businesses were also evacuated and the fire was left to burn out on its own. According to the fire chief, emergency workers were exposed to a very hazardous and potentially explosive environment.

The personal protective equipment of initial crews that responded was ordered disposed of by Health Canada and the equipment was destroyed on-site. One firefighter was taken to hospital with minor skin burns. About a dozen different agencies, including a hazmat team from Abbotsford, Health Canda, the RCMP Clandestine Lab Team and Tervita, worked for days to dismantle the operation and identify the substances in more than 250

containers. Mounties later confirmed about 20 kilograms of suspected ecstasy was removed from the site. The investigation is ongoing and no charges have yet been laid, according to Mission RCMP Staff Sgt. Rob Dixon. The exact amount spent on putting out the fire and mitigating the hazard is unclear as costs such as wages are unknown, but Watkin-

Mission MLA accepted BCTF cheque Carol Aun MISSION RECORD

The president of the Mission Teachers Union was disappointed when he learned Maple Ridge-Mission Liberal MLA Marc Dalton cashed a cheque sent to him in error by the BC Teachers Federation. “I thought surely he would know better,” said Mark Bradshaw when he heard about it last week. All B.C. teachers who were teaching in 2013 to present received about $1,800 from the union as part of the strike settlement, said Bradshaw. On-call teachers received less, as did former teachers who moved into administrative roles. Dalton was a teacher, but has not been instructing since he was elected MLA in 2009. “He received his cheque by mistake, as did Don McRae (MLA for Comox Valley) on Vancouver Island,” Bradshaw added. “McRae noticed the mistake and returned it. He did the honourable thing.” McRae, a former teacher, had contacted the union after receiving his cheque to alert members to the error.

BCTF also discovered Dalton was sent the money in error after reviewing records and requested the funds be returned. Dalton said the $105 million government payout to the union was to deal with class size and composition issues dating back to 2002. “When I received the cheque over Christmas

… I assumed they knew what they were doing,” said Dalton. “I taught between 2002 to 2009 as a full-time teacher.” The union accepted the $105 million, and in exchange, agreed it will not file any retroactive grievances if the BCTF wins its pending court case against the government. The union has already won two judgments against

Victoria, which unilaterally stripped class size and composition language out of the collective agreement with teachers in 2002. Another judgment is expected this spring. Dalton, who is on a long-term leave of absence from his career as a teacher, said he has returned the money to the union and considers the mat-

Former teacher and war vet to be buried 30 years after death Carol Aun

MISSION RECORD

A Mission school teacher who died more than 30 years ago is being honoured by his students later this month. Walter Pickersgill was an English teacher in Mission. He was born on Jan. 24, 1909 and passed away June 27, 1981. His body was cremated in Mission, but his remains were never claimed. Sandy Maguire was saddened to see Pickersgill’s name listed in an ad for “Disposition of Unclaimed Cremated Remains” last November in this newspaper. She knew of only one Walter Pickersgill and did not hesitate to make arrangements to honour her high school English teacher. “My heart went out to him,” said Sandy, who was

only in his class for a year. Sandy, who graduated from Mission senior secondary in 1964, described him as a very quiet man who made an impression on many of his students. She remembers him walking up and down between the rows of desks in his classroom rattling the change in his pocket as he waited from someone to answer a question he had asked. He once caught Sandy drawing a caricature of him one day. “He stopped at my desk,” she recalled. “I didn’t know he was there, but it got very quiet. I looked over my left shoulder and he was standing there.” He didn’t comment on the picture, but politely asked her to pay attention. “He was one of my best teachers,” said Sandy. “He

His teaching was clear and precise and he stayed with you until you understood.” Sandy contacted Woodlawn Funeral Home and made arrangements to pick up the cremated

have been notified since and they have been trying to find the Pickersgill family. “He deserves a proper burial after all this time,” said Sandy, who discovered that her former teacher retired from

remains, often called “cremains,” later that day. A couple of days later, she found out a former school mate of hers also called the funeral home after she had done the same thing. A few other students

teaching in 1972 was also a war veteran. With the help of the funeral home, she connected with a representative of the Last Post Fund (LPF) to make the arrangements. According to its website, the LPF is financially supported by Veterans Affairs Canada and private donors, and its mission is to ensure veterans receive a dignified funeral, burial and military gravestone. “Mr. Pickersgill couldn’t be buried in the local legion plot (at Hatzic cemetery) because he wasn’t a member of any legion,” explained Sandy. “(The LPF) purchased a plot beside the legion (section), has paid for the urn and marker for the grave and will care for gravesite hereafter.” Sandy and her friends

don’t know why Pickersgill was out of touch with his family, but they have discovered he has connections in Newfoundland and are reaching out to relatives there. “Through searching, we’ve found so many cousins,” said Sandy, who noted her teacher was originally from Manitoba. “It would be so wonderful to have a family member at the graveside.” Sandy said she usually isn’t interested in history, but this experience has opened her eyes. She will be putting together a booklet with information about Walter Pickersgill and his life. “We will share as much information as we can,” said Sandy, who also hopes former students and colleagues will show up with stories of their own. Angelo Rea, general manager of Dignity Memorial Funeral Homes in the Fraser Valley, told The Record it is rare these days to have unclaimed cremated remains in a funeral home. In the past, the funeral arrangements were done in phases, but now funeral home directors work with families to make all the arrangements in the beginning. It is costly and a liability for any funeral home to keep cremains for a long period of time, he explained. “It is healthier for families too because the finality is dealt with.” The policy now is to house the cremains for up to 30 days. If the ashes are still not picked up, the funeral home will try to contact family members or executor before putting an advertisement in the local newspaper. Remains that are not claimed are interred in a common grave. Sandy said, “It’s an honour to be able to do this for Mr. Pickersgill, but it’s sad that he wasn’t provided this service 33 years ago.” The service for Walter Pickersgill will take place on Feb. 20 at 11 a.m. at Hatzic cemetery, followed by a gathering at the Mission Springs Restaurant.

Police continue to investigate drug lab incident FROM 1

son said $300,000 is not an unlikely figure. The proposed cost recovery bylaw, which has already received three readings by council, outlines the hourly rate of firefighters, police, district staff, and equipment in addition to what the district would charge back to bring in external agencies. A bill totalling $148,761.71 will be sent to numbered company, 0782550 B.C. Ltd, listed as the registered owner of 7191 Horne St. A similar bylaw was presented last year, but the previous council didn’t proceed because it feared the legislation would remind the community of the former highly controversial Public Safety Inspection Team. From 2008 until 2011, the district team conducted safety inspections on homes throughout the commu-

nity based on unusually high power use. Property owners who were suspected of housing a marjiuana grow operation, were charged $5,200. PSIT inspected 499 properties and identified 170 as being involved with a controlled substance. Many homeowners challenged the law before it was repealed in 2013. “This bylaw has nothing to do with going into people’s homes investigating grow ops,” said Mayor Randy Hawes, who noted the owners of the Horne Street property claimed to not know about the drug lab. “This has to do with those people causing the municipality costs and paying for it.” Hawes also criticized the previous council for its “passive” approach to grow ops, and said, “As a result, we’re the marijuana capital of Canada.” Watkinson believes

the proposed bylaw is strong and will hold up in court if ever challenged, especially if criminal charges are laid. “We will work closely with RCMP,” said Watkinson, adding under the bylaw, property owners will be billed when all the costs associated with cleaning up a controlled substance property are tallied. “It will be obvious there was criminal activity taking place.” The September incident was a huge eyeopener for the fire department, said Watkinson, noting there were no indications on the exterior of the building that something illegal was happening. As a result, local firefighters underwent more training for such incidents and educated Mission’s public works staff on how to identify synthetic drug labs when they are working around the community.

SOME INDICATORS OF A SYNTHETIC DRUG LAB ARE: • Red stains on windows • Multiple containers or large pails in the yard • Numerous burners or single stove-top cookers • Unique-looking glass containers, such as sphere shapes • Glass pots • Odours like cat urine or liquorice

Two businesses robbed

Two Mission businesses were robbed in the past week and police believe the incidents are related. On Saturday morning, a man walked into Magicuts at the Junction Mall around 11:30 a.m. and without alerting alerting the other customers in the salon, drew a knife and asked for cash from the till. The clerk said the man had taken money, but that he had apologized for any stress his actions caused. Police were called and Mounties deployed police dogs but were unable to track the robber. The suspect was white, about 5’10” and of a stocky build. He wore a black ball cap. Police are also looking for a suspect after an Esso gas station was robbed Wednesday morning.

AGRI-FOOD VENTURE ACCELERATION PROGRAM

A man entered the store at the corner of Dewdney Trunk Road and Stave Lake Street just before 8 a.m. and pointed a knife at the clerk. He received cash and cigarettes and fled in a beige or gold Nissan Maxima. The suspect is described as a Caucasian in his 30s with SUSPECT a medium build and light brown facial hair. He was about 5’10” tall, wearing a black hoodie with “Surrey What” white lettering on the back, and a baseball cap under his hood. Anyone with information is asked to call RCMP at 604-826-7191.

QUESTION OF THE WEEK Will you spend the day with your family on the designated holiday Monday?

Reminder for parents to behave

At first glance, the idea to ban parents from local hockey rinks may sound ridiculous. But the idea was floated recently when a Vancouver Island minor-hockey association announced they were considering banning people from the stands for an entire weekend, as a way to send a message to incorrigible parents and others who frequently yell at and berate referees, coaches and players. On second glance, it may just be a good idea. Because throughout the province – and no doubt elsewhere – there does seem to be a problem. Last week, Penticton parents ended up in fisticuffs with fans of an opposing team at a tournament in Salmon Arm. Earlier this month, a Burnaby hockey dad was given a conditional discharge and 12 months probation after threatening a nine-year-old minor hockey player. And last November, a restraining order was placed on a woman who was allegedly harassing the Kootenay Ice junior team, as well as the National Hockey League’s Detroit Red Wings, with regard to her sons’ hockey careers. Back in 2009, police were called to South

Surrey Arena – and a game cancelled – after fights broke out between supporters of a Semiahmoo midget team and a travelling squad from Montreal. More recently, Semiahmoo Minor Hockey launched a Respect in Sports program to curtail such behaviour, and many rinks throughout the Lower Mainland have codeof-conduct signs prominently displayed. Having a no-spectator weekend – or even simply bringing the idea of one to the forefront – would be considered a way to put things in perspective for parents, coaches, and others who frequent our arenas, football fields, gyms and soccer pitches. While competing in front of a supportive crowd can be rewarding in itself, the players, first and foremost, are out there to make friends and have fun playing a sport they love. It is considerably less fun, one would assume, when you have to embarrassingly hang your head because your parents are screaming from the stands or sidelines. For the sake of all involved, a friendly reminder now and then to keep it classy is never a bad thing.

B.C. teachers adapting, but not union Tom Fletcher

B.C. Views The B.C. education ministry put on a forum on the future of education last week, bringing together public and private school leaders with experts from around the world. I watched the proceedings via webcast from the Wosk Centre for Dialogue in Vancouver, which gives you a hint about the forces pressing in on our century-old industrial model of schooling. First up was Andreas Schleicher, on video link from his office in Paris, where he is director of education and skills for the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development. He began with the international problem of people coming out of university who can’t find jobs, amid a skills shortage. Schleicher said this is happening today because, “it’s not what you know but what you can do with what you know.” Some education systems are adapting better than others

as the value of merely passing on facts has declined. He said these days, almost any student can pass any multiple-choice test if they have a smartphone. The question for parents is what to do “if you want your child to be smarter than a smartphone.” The OECD runs international testing that consistently ranks schools in B.C. and Canada among the best in the world, and Schleicher described how that testing has evolved to keep up. But our progress in the past 10 years has tended to be slower than some Asian countries, despite B.C. being on the “high end of investment” in education. He warned against the trap of the industrial school model, “pouring money in” to “do more of the same.” Some of the best results emerging from a decade of digitally-driven globalization have been achieved through innovations that were financed through bigger class sizes, Schleicher said. This was too much for one B.C. Teachers’ Federation representative in the audience, who introduced herself as someone who spent the last transformational decade working for the union, not in a classroom.

She disputed the OECD’s financial calculations, lecturing some of the world’s top economists that based on “spending power,” B.C. schools are cash starved.

It’s not what you know, but what you can do with what you know. She followed this with the laundry list of BCTF demands that hasn’t changed in 40 years – smaller classes, more prep time, more money. The keynote speaker was Yong Zhao, University of Oregon professor of educational measurement, who gave a highly entertaining critique of standardized testing and creativity-crushing drills of the basics. (You can find a video archive here.) Yong sparked a lively discussion about the need for foundation skills, which he and oth-

ers agreed remain vital to success. The issue seems to be how to instil those basics while avoiding the disengagement of students who see school as irrelevant to their lives. Education Minister Peter Fassbender announced at the forum that the province is about to unveil new curriculum that moves toward individual learning for all students. And he said there will be a series of experiments conducted at yet-to-be-identified B.C. schools to pioneer new models of learning. BCTF president Jim Iker sat stoically through the proceedings, where speakers described integrating community groups and businesses directly with schools. That’s underway here, with trades training in particular. Iker’s record on adaptation is clear from his own career. The only school where he actually taught was in the northwest B.C. village of Topley, and it closed in 2010 due to a long-term decline in rural students. By 2001, Iker had left the classroom to work for the Burns Lake teacher union local, which the BCTF continues to staff eight years after that school district and others disappeared through amalgamation. tfletcher@blackpress.ca

YOUR VIEWS Reading riot Opposed to project on Hatzic Bench News that (developers) Jason Tiegin and Gary Toor have set their sights on bringing a high density development to the Hatzic Bench hasn`t been received exactly with open arms by homeowners who will be adversely effected by it. Just because a developer wants to build on a specific piece of land doesn’t mean that he is owed that right. Not by the people already near it or by our mayor and council. This particular project can only be stopped by a loud outcry against it by residents of the Hatzic Bench who do not want a high density development on the old Ferncliff property.

What’s proposed has already been done around Mission and has turned entire neighbourhoods into glorified parking lots on any given Sunday afternoon. I’m appealing directly to residents of The Hatzic Bench to email the mayor and council members directly with your opposition to seeing a high-density elephant being dumped in the middle of a great place to live. I’`s only your voice that can make a difference before the rubber stamping starts happening and by then it will be too late. Robert T. Rock Mission

MISSION RECORD

Neighbours helping neighbours is one way to describe the work being done by Mission Community Foundation (MCF). “We try to make a difference in the community by giving grants and scholarships to worthy causes,” said Mike Miles, MCF board chair. Anyone can donate to one of MCF’s 80-plus funds, or create their own to leave a legacy. “A lot of people come up with a start-up fund, but it doesn’t get capitalized until it reaches $10,000,” explained Peter Robson, a board director. “Only after it’s capitalized does it get dispersed.” Some people contribute monthly, while others give a large lump sum or make a bequest in their will. The money entrusted to the foundation is invested and only the interest accrued is dispersed. The principle is never touched. “The money that comes in stays in Mission,” added Robson, noting the non-profit organization uses less than two per cent of donations for administrative costs. Since the MCF was created in 1987, it has distributed $1 million

in scholarships to more than 875 students, and has given more than $433,000 in grants for community projects. Currently, the foundation has $3.7 million in assets. Every year Mission high school students benefit from scholarships and bursaries, and outstanding math and science middle school students are honoured. Recognizing students is

We try to make a difference in the community by giving grants and scholarships to worthy causes. MIKE MILES one of the things MCF office manager Michelle Gauthier is most proud of. “Anyone can apply for a bursary or scholarship,” she said, pointing out there are specific funds for certain areas of study. For example, the Vic and Hilda Hollister Fund has scholarships for students pursuing studies in science and engineering; the Ralph Babuik Fund provides scholarships for candidates studying a career in the trades; and the Clint Lobb Shake and Shingle

Industry Fund provides financial assistance to students in the aviation or forestry fields. The Margaret Erskine Bursary Fund, created in 1988, is the foundation’s oldest fund. It provides financial support to students in the fields of athletics, education, music, the arts, or sciences. Every year, the top math and science students in Grade 7 and 8 in the Mission School Dis-

trict are recognized for their achievement at the G.W. Cooke Awards. The fund was established in 1992 by Bill and Shirley Walker, who were longtime friends of George Willoughby Cooke. According to MCF history, Cooke worked for many years on steamships and at the Herman sawmill, and extended many kindnesses to the Walkers, which they never forgot. Friendship and kindness are also factors in receiving this award, said Gauthier, who notes school principals make

recommendations on who should receive the award. “The kids who win a G.W. Cooke award in middle school usually win one (bursary or scholarship) in high school,” she added. Miles, who became involved after his son won a scholarship from MCF, said the foundation tries to keep in touch with local graduates. “When we give scholarships to students, they give back,” said Miles. “We don’t want them to forget about us … It’s gratifying to see them succeed.” “Some of these kids really blow us away,” said Robson, noting students who apply for scholarship are interviewed by the MCF board. The board also reviews applications for various community grants. There are grants for arts, sports, and environmental causes, just to name a few, said Gauthier. There are currently 11 board members at MCF. Each members serves a four-year term, which can be renewed, but the member must retire after eight years. A list of funds managed by MCF is available on its website. To make a donation, or for more information, visit missioncommunityfoundation.org or call 604-826-5322.

Job opportunities coming to North Fraser Communities in the North Fraser region, including Mission, will be bursting with job opportunities over the next decade, according to a Labour Market Partnership study commissioned by Invest North Fraser and funded by the provincial government. The $111,000 study took six months and laid out labour market opportunities in the agriculture/forestry, tourism, manufacturing, education and advanced technology sectors of the region, which also includes Pitt Meadows and Maple Ridge.

Special Occasion Licenses

Community Groups wishing to hold beer gardens at their Community Groups wishing to hold beer gardens at their special events in 2015 are required to apply for a Special Occasion License. Groups must have approval from the District of Mission in order to obtain a license.

The License Application form is available from the administration office at the Mission Leisure Centre.

“The three communities that banded together and took part in this study will benefit for years to come,” said Maple Ridge-Mission MLA Marc Dalton. “This report lays out the blueprint for prosperity and employment in five vital sectors in the North Fraser region.” Nearly 500 employers took part in the North Fraser labour market survey to delve into job vacancies, workforce profile (age, retirements) and training needs.

The study also offered recommendations for workforce attraction, and training and skills development.

A Mission woman is hoping to bring more than just her tireless energy to at-risk youth in Colombia when she visits on a volunteering trip in June. Upon completing her kinesiology degree at the University of the Fraser Valley this spring, Kaitlyn Singh plans to head to South America to tour Peru and then volunteer at a sports program in Cartagena, Colombia. But beyond participating in a sports development program for youth in the coastal Colombian city, the Mission secondary grad of 2010 wants to make a lasting

contribution to the charities she’s working with. To do so, Singh is raising money, and has set a target of $1,500, which she hopes to use to purchase athletic equipment for the organizations. “I love travel and I love to help out,” Singh said. Working through International Volunteer Headquarters, Singh has arranged to volunteer with a program that aims to help children and youth in foster homes or who are dealing with addictions. The program run by Emerging Voices tries to use sports – primarily soccer – to give the children a safe outlet beyond the world of

gangs and drugs. “It’s teaching health promotion and the benefits of health. “That is completely in my alley. I love sport and I love fitness and health and I also like working with kids so it was my calling,” said Singh, who played volleyball and basketball in high school. She even joined a competitive jump rope team. The program mainly has just soccer balls, but Singh wants to raise funds to purchase more equipment – including footballs, basketballs and uniforms – in Colombia, in collaboration with the program’s co-ordinators. Her efforts have

already netted $200 in donations. “They would love to introduce basketball and football down there, because they have the soccer balls already,” Singh said. “As limited as their equipment is, it would be fun and good for them to have other games.” In Cartagena, Singh will be conducting classes as well as setting up and running games for the youth involved. The aim, she said, is to get the kids “outside of the negative realm they’re in.” To donate, visit missioncityrecord.com and click on the 4Good button.

Good hearing, poor comprehension? The number of people who can hear well, but can’t understand what’s being said, is increasing. This is most evident in conversations and watching television. A newlydeveloped hearing chip is designed to restore speech comprehension without being noticeable in the ear. A lot of people have poor comprehension, though they actually still hear well. It becomes noticeable in conversation, watching television and asking family to repeat what’s been said. A potential cause can be undetected loss in the high-frequency range. This means the sensory cells in the cochlea that hear high-range sounds are damaged as a result of circulatory disorders, diabetes, sudden hearing loss or workplace noise. Hearing loss in the highfrequency range makes speech sound muffled and unclear. The person with hearing loss mixes up, or can no longer hear, consonants like s, f, t, k, h and g. Speech comprehension is particularly impaired when there is background noise or when television programs have background music. The dilemma is that people with hearing loss in the high-frequency range do not

They can hear deep tones with no issue, and often put difficulty understanding speech down to unclear pronunciation. However, the time soon comes when problems with comprehension become annoying. A new hearing chip has been developed.

and speech comprehension analysis is done. Where inner-ear damage is present, a software program analyzes the difference relative to normal hearing. These values are then input into the new Venture hearing chip in the Audéo V, which precisely takes into account and balances the frequency range of the person being tested. The test phase in particular is designed to clarify how speech comprehension can be improved in various situations and what role a new technology called “Autosense OS” plays. The chip recognizes where the person being spoken to is located and amplifies only his or her voice, while ambient noise is lowered and the optimum hearing programs are seamlessly adjusted. Thanks to several synchronous microphones, the hearing system can detect sound in all directions and select the direction that speech is coming from within milliseconds. According to Swiss researchers, this significantly augments speech comprehension, especially in conversation.

Physical illness, a broken relationship, an assault by a total stranger – any one of these situations could send a person into a deep depression. When you consider that Shayna Davison experienced all three events in the course of a year, it’s nothing short of a miracle that she not only survived them but has become a stronger, healthier person; this despite the fact that she lives with bi-polar and anxiety disorders. Davison credits much of her success to a good relationship with a supportive psychiatrist. She also credits the staff and members at Centennial Place with giving her the support and strength she needed to face these difficulties. “Centennial Place is amazing,” Davison says. “From the minute I walked in, I knew it was different. I received a warm welcome. People

Brandi Matheson and Shayna Davison practise mindfulness meditation at Centennial Place – a clubhouse in Mission that supports people towards mental wellness. ANGELIKA DAWSON PHOTO are so genuine in their concern for you. It feels like your second home.” Located in Mission, Centennial Place is a program of Communitas Supportive Care Society that supports those living with mental wellness challenges by providing a safe, nurturing environment for its members. The clubhouse also offers activities and workshops. One of the first groups that

Davison attended was called Mindful Based Stress Reduction, which teaches techniques for mental wellness. “Mindfulness-based classes, which include meditation and yoga, have become one of the most popular things we offer,” says Brandi Matheson, who manages Centennial Place and facilitates such groups. “A good portion of those who are

referred to us are people who have expressed an interest in such groups and 75 per cent of these are people living with anxiety and depression.” Matheson says that in the 12 years she’s worked for Communitas she has never found anything more accessible or effective than mindfulness and meditation in helping her clients. “It affects them physically, mentally and spiritually. Anyone can do this, that’s what’s so great about it.” While mindfulness, meditation and yoga are taught separately, all focus on calming the mind by focusing on breath. For example, when Davison goes for a walk, she does so mindfully. She focuses on breathing deeply, aware of the sensation of the cool air entering her body. She pays attention CONTINUED ON 17

to the sounds around her, and the feel of the ground as she takes each step. Deep breathing is calming and focusing her mind at such a specific level brings a deeper awareness to what’s happening inside her and around her. “It’s being connected with yourself,” Davison says. “It’s not about changing or trying to manipulate any of that but simply an awareness that grounds you.” For Davison, mind-

writes poetry to help her process feelings and emotions. She’s made physical changes too. Last spring, she ended up in hospital with severe stomach pains and discovered that she was not digesting her food properly. She made the decision to quit junk food and start eating healthy. That decision, paired with daily exercise, has resulted in significant weight loss: Davison has lost 120 pounds since last spring. She walks up to two hours each day and her diet includes real,

I am in control of my health and through meditation and mindfulness, I’ve been able to get through these stressful events without having to be hospitalized,” she says. “That wouldn’t have been true even a year ago. I’ve gone a whole calendar year without being hospitalized for mental health issues.” Davison has also taken control in other areas of her life, making significant changes that have affected her overall health and wellness. She journals and

fulness and meditation have been so effective that she’s been able to reduce her medication and in some cases even eliminate it. Instead of reaching for a pill, she now takes time in stressful situations to breathe deeply, close her eyes and focus. This practice helped her get through a period of time when her relationship with her daughter was broken. It also made the difference when she was the victim of assault at a park in Abbotsford last fall. “I have realized that

whole foods. “Now, when I crave a cookie or a bag of chips, I go for a walk instead,” she says. Weekly yoga practice has helped her to tune in to her body and has given her a greater sense of her own physical presence and her ability to move. Davison acknowledges that she is on a journey but going back to her old ways is simply not an option anymore. When asked what the future holds, she struggles to articulate that. “I don’t really think of

the future. Mindfulness has taught me to be in the present,” she says. “I want to be genuine, open and honest about who I am. I want to continue to get to know myself.” Together with her commitment to mindfulness and meditation, she says that she has become a better person. “I am living now, truly

enjoying life and not just surviving or going through the motions. I’m learning to love myself and have compassion for myself,” she says. “All these changes have helped me to find myself and I’m loving what I’m finding!” For more information about Centennial Place, visit http://www.centennialplacemission.ca/

Seeing images of Earth from space can induce a variety of powerful feelings, from awe over its beauty to fear over its apparent fragility. Ours is a living, breathing planet and at least so far, we haven’t found any others where life occurs. Seeing pictures of the Earth from outer space is one thing; actually seeing the Earth from outer space is almost invariably a life-changing experience. Consider what various astronauts have said about their view of our planet from space. James Irwin remarked “That beautiful, warm, living object looked so fragile, so delicate, that if you touched it with a finger it would crumble and fall apart. Seeing this has to change a man, has to make a man appreciate the creation of God and the love of God.” Edgar Mitchell observed “Suddenly, from behind the rim of the moon, in long, slow-motion moments of immense majesty, there emerges a sparkling blue and white jewel . . . rising gradually like a small pearl in a thick sea of black mystery. It takes more than a moment to fully realize this is Earth . . . home.” Mitchell says elsewhere that “My view of our planet was a glimpse of divinity.” Finally, consider what Taylor Wang felt upon seeing Earth from space: “A Chinese tale tells of some men sent to harm a young girl who, upon seeing her beauty, become her protectors rather than her violators. That’s how I felt seeing the Earth for the first time. I could not help but love and cherish her.” Earth is our home and is entrusted to us for its protection.

is a little vague and has a notchy engagement feel, but I did like the cue ball style shift leaver. While official fuel economy numbers were not available, Jeep is expecting a combined fuel rating of about 8.1 L/100km, which would be excellent. The 4x4 versions of Renegade also feature a unique disconnecting rear axle feature that should provide fuel economy numbers that are close to the 4x2 versions. Tek-Tonic is what Jeep designers dubbed the Renegade’s funky yet functional interior. The Wrangler theme is also evident inside and includes the requisite passenger grab handle. It’s a softer, more comfortable Jeep people place with practical features such as the fold-forward front-passenger seat and a removable, reversible and height-adjustable cargo floor panel. Renegade is also tall folk friendly with oodles of headroom, so they could even wear a hat. A minor tall-roof drawback was noted, however, when I tried to reach for a distant sun visor above the upright windshield. Jeep claims Renegade has up to 70 standard and available safety and security features. There are seven standard air bags, including a driver’s knee air bag. On top of that you can layer an impressive list of optional active safety features that includes Forward Collision Warning with Active Braking, Lane Departure Warning, Blind-spot Monitoring, Rear Cross Path detection, ParkView and a Rear Backup Camera. The all-new 2015 Jeep Renegade is in a word…how you say…Stupendo!
