District plans for more Mounties Carol Aun MISSION RECORD

For the first time in almost 10 years, the district plans to expand the Mission police force.

Three more Mounties are expected to join the detachment, bringing the total number of officers funded by the district to 50.

The funding for additional officers are part of this year’s budget

exercise currently underway, but Mayor Randy Hawes said the decision, which may require a slight tax increase this year, has been made.

“It just has to be formalized in the budget,” said Hawes. “This council is adamant. We will hire (new officers).”

Mission has been approved for 50 officers for years, but has only

funded 47.

“We have not hired an officer in 10 years,” noted Hawes. “We’re well past due. I know there are enough problems in Mission and those officers are badly needed.”

Coun. Jim Hinds, who campaigned on improving public safety in the last election, agreed.

“The population has grown, and we need new police officers to

expand on what we have,” said Hinds. “We can’t keep putting this stuff off.”

Hinds noted the previous council chose to “save money” to pay down the debt, but he said underfunding safety isn’t the way to do it.

“It’s costing us money because of the amount of damage being done in town,” said Hinds, add-

ing the criminal activities taking place and the perception of them happening have a negative impact on the community. “We need to start doing proactive things for the whole community.”

Coun. Jenny Stevens, who was a member of the previous council, was the only member opposed to adding the cost of three officers to CONTINUED ON 3

New school focuses on the outdoors

Fifth site for Satnam Education Society of B.C. Carol Aun MISSION RECORD

Children will be encouraged to yell as loud as they want, get messy, and play outside at a new private school scheduled to open in Mission in September.

It will be the only outdoor-focused school in Mission for students in Kindergarten to Grade 7.

Operated by the Satnam Education Society of B.C., the Mission campus would be the group’s fifth site. There are already four Khalsa schools established in Surrey and a pre-school/daycare in Abbotsford, which is expected

to be a feeder school for Mission.

The Khalsa Centre has been running camps for children and adults of all ages since it purchased the former Paetzold Centre from the Salvation Army in Miracle Valley, east of Mission in 2011.

“We’ve given the property a lot of TLC,” said Sundeep Kaur Dhaliwal, a director with Khalsa School who has been running camps in B.C. for more than 22 years.

Help determine policing priorities for community Mission residents are being consulted to determine priorities for the local police force this year.

Mission RCMP will be hosting a policing forum on Feb. 19 from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Leisure Centre gym.

In the past, police have determined the priorities after study-

ing statistics and working with council.

“We’re taking it one step further this year by going to the community,” explained Mission RCMP Insp.

Ted De Jager. “We want to be collaborative. We want to know what the big issues are in town.”

The forum will feature an update on

crime trends in the community, a review of the Mission RCMP detachment’s Annual Performance Plan and an update on new initiatives to increase levels of service and co-ordination with community partners.

The evening will end with a panel discussion and an open ques-

tion period to raise concerns, offer suggestions, and a chance to meet with police officers and Mission detachment staff.

Staff from the Crime Prevention Office and volunteers will be out in force to display the full range of community crime prevention programs available.

Funding for three additional officers in the 2015 budget FROM 1

the budget.

“I voted against it because I felt three officers in one year is too many,” said Stevens.

According to a Police Resourcing Methodology study conducted by RCMP E Division in 2012, Mounties in Mission have less time to focus on police priorities and proactive duties, such as patrolling problem areas and crime prevention, compared to their counterparts in the rest of the Lower Mainland.

Officers here spend just 21 per cent of their time on those tasks, while the industry standard is 25 to 35 per cent.

“Calls for service for front line members have increased over the past three years, particularly with respect to mental health related calls and prolific offender related crimes,” said Mission Insp. Ted De Jager, noting the unallocated time his officers have remains below the industry standard.

In a report to council, De Jager wrote, “Pro-

lific offenders typically account for between 10 to 20 per cent of a community’s offender population, but are responsible for approximately 80 per cent of the crime.

It is for this reason that prolific offender management and support to those suffering from mental illness is a priority for this detachment.”

Currently, there is one officer focusing on mental health issues, and De Jager plans to create a prolific offender team with the additional three Mounties.

“The intent is to create a full-time team that focuses solely on prolific offenders,” said

De Jager, who hopes crime rates will fall once the team of about a half-dozen members are trained and established in their roles.

“They will be connected deeply with corrections, probation officers and Crown counsel to ensure prolific offenders are being managed correctly, to make sure they’re getting help to get out of their life of crime.”

If a prolific offender continues to commit crimes, police will make it clear to them they are being watched, said De Jager, adding prolific offenders may have mental health issues.

Mountie won’t be charged in connection with Highway 7 crash

By Tyler OLSEN ABBOTSFORD NEWS

An RCMP officer won’t face charges in connection with a motorcycle crash east of Deroche that left two people with injuries.

The crash of the motorcycle followed an attempt by a member of the Ridge Meadows RCMP Detachment to pull over a large group of motorcyclists west on Highway 7 on the afternoon of March 31, 2014, according to a report from the Independent Investigation Office

(IIIO), which investigates incidents involving police officers that lead to injuries or death.

The IIO said the officer was patrolling the highway “in relation to a group of motorcyclists involved in an event,” on the day in question.

The officer was following a group of 30 to 40 westbound riders when she saw the group “swarm” a vehicle and pass it on the right and left.

When she activated her lights and siren, vehicles travelling the other direction slowed

and an eastbound motorcycle lost control.

The male motorcylist and a female passenger “were dislodged from the motorcycle,” according to the report.

The motorcyclist sustained leg and shoulder fractures, while the passenger suffered “a minor abrasion injury.”

According to the officer, “it appeared that the operator of the oncoming motorcycle tried to go around a vehicle in front of him and pass into oncoming traffic, but had no place to go due to the large

group of other motorcyclists on the highway travelling toward him.”

The injured motorcyclist described a scene of “complete chaos,” with oncoming motorcycles “ripping by” in his own lane. He described an evasive maneuver that saw his motorcycle hit the road and slide into a minivan in front.

The IIO decision released Wednesday concluded there was “no substantial likelihood that the police officer would be convicted of any offence.”

Mission eyes anti-odour bylaw Carol Aun MISSION RECORD

Mission is following the lead of Langley Township to develop a bylaw which allows the district to fine producers of smelly marijuana grow operations.

District staff have been in discussions with lawyers and is expected to bring a report to council next month, according to Mike Younie, Mission's director of develop-

ment services.

"The bylaw would be very simple and prohibit odours that interfere with a person's ability to enjoy their own property," said Younie. "Offences would need to be documented by several nearby neighbours."

Council had directed staff to look into the issue last week.

"I think we need to take a look at it," said Mayor Randy Hawes,

who wanted to be able to add any fines related to the property onto the owner's taxes.

Younie suggested the odour should not be limited to marijuana.

In 2013, there were more than 700 Health Canada licensed marijuana grow operations in Mission, according to the district, which received the numbers after submitting a

freedom of information request.

Those licences were supposed to be phased out in favour of large commercial grow ops last April, but that has been held up by a Supreme Court challenge.

Last month, Langley Township approved a bylaw that allows the township to issue fines of $500 a day to operators of pungent grow ops.

Students of all faiths welcomed FROM 1

remain unchanged from when the Salvation Army operated an addiction treatment facility for men, but on the inside, walls have been patched and painted, and desks and chairs have been moved in to create a classroom setting for students. All the locks on dorm room doors have also been removed.

About 85 acres of the 160 acres have been turned into an organic blueberry farm, and activity areas, such as an archery wall, rock wall, paintball course, and zip lines have been added. There is also a high rope course and a low rope course, trails and camping areas.

Campers are expected to work together, develop a strong sense of personal identity, and treat everyone with respect.

Students at the new school will be expected to do the same.

The camps only run when schools are not

in session, and instead of having Mission property sit empty, Dhaliwal, who works as a lawyer when she’s not volunteering with the society, looked into creating a unique school.

While it is a Sikh private school, students of all faiths can be admitted, said Dhaliwal, noting Khalsa schools have an intense academic curriculum and place strong emphasis on physical activity and arts and culture.

“We follow the established B.C. curriculum.”

School days are a little longer in order to fit in a morning prayer session and a Punjabi language class and a traditional music class for everyone.

“Punjabi is one of the fastest growing languages in Mission,” said Dhaliwal, noting about 14 per cent of students that learn Punjabi in Surrey are not of Sikh heritage. “It’s an asset.”

By the time Khalsa school students are finished Grade 7, they should be in a position to challenge the Grade

12 provincial exam for Punjabi.

Dhaliwal can’t help but get a little excited when she imagines up to 100 children running around on the property and learning their lessons in an outdoor environment.

On the high ropes course, students can study physics by discussing angles of ropes and how much stretch is available, and on the low ropes course, they can learn team-building skills and pick up cultural lessons, she explained.

“They can learn social studies by doing it. We can visit the First Nations next door.”

Agricultural lessons will be taught in the blueberry field or apple orchard and students can study fish and tadpoles in science class at the small lake on site.

“The kids can talk and yell as loud as they want. They can get excited and be comfortable with who they are.”

Some classes, such as music and computer

science, will have to be taught indoors, but the goal is to spend at least 50 per cent of the school day outside, said Dhaliwal, who encourages kids to get to know the outdoors and learn by getting hands-on.

The classrooms will be small, with a maximum of 15 students in each one and school days run from 8:10 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.

All students will be bused in and have uni-

forms. There will also be a free tutoring program available after school for students who need extra help or want to get ahead.

About a dozen students have already registered to attend the school in September and 11 staff members have been hired.

QUESTION OF THE WEEK

Get your children vaccinated

Parents of babies and younger children have another job to put on their to-do list: get their child vaccinated.

But unlike the situation where dentists remind their patients every six months to get a teeth cleaning, there is no similar immunization reminder for parents except for those they set up for themselves. And this is a problem.

According to Fraser Health records, more than 30 per cent of children under two in the Fraser Health region, which includes Mission, are not up to date with recommended vaccinations against diseases such as measles, diphtheria, polio and Hepatitis B. Certainly, the health authority faces challenges from immunization foes who fear that vaccinations may be dangerous or that mandatory vaccinations violate their rights or religious principles.

But by far the biggest obstacle to greater participation rates is that people forget to get their child’s shots at 12 and 18 months. Once the parent returns to work or has another child, they can be too busy or distracted to make an appointment or they don’t understand how important it is.

The vaccinations are free but it’s up to parents to keep track of this information either

by mental notes, signing up for free text reminders or downloading the ImmunizeCA app to keep track.

By the time kids get into school, the process becomes easier because boosters are offered for children in Grades 6 and 9.

Therefore, parents of younger children have to be diligent on following through on this task. For that to happen, they need to know that missing out on the 12-month vaccination, which includes the first dose of the MMR [measles, mumps and rubella] vaccine to protect against measles, their children could be at risk for a serious disease and they could pass the illness on to other kids.

No one said raising a child would be easy and until a simpler way of immunizing nonschool-aged kids is found, parents must take on this responsibility themselves.

Mandatory immunization shouldn’t be necessary, but flat refusal by some to vaccinate their kids because of personal beliefs or fear of modern medicine invites consideration of such a measure by the majority of people who recognize and appreciate the importance of protecting their children against preventable diseases.

Do you think vaccinations against infectious diseases should be mandatory for children?

Post-secondary ‘re-engineering’ begins Tom Fletcher

B.C. Views Premier Christy Clark’s push to “re-engineer” the B.C. education system is moving ahead aggressively in B.C.’s 25 post-secondary institutions.

One of the first tasks for Andrew Wilkinson in his new role as advanced education minister was to outline the shift in operating grants for colleges and universities to in-demand occupations. By 2017, a quarter of the money for post-secondary institutions will be directed to areas where labour force surveys forecast a need.

This was greeted with some alarm when it was announced last year. Simon Fraser University president Andrew Petter at first downplayed the coming skills shortage as “relatively small” and warned against pushing post-secondary institutions into a “zero sum battle for dollars.”

Petter has since come on board, as his

approving comments were featured in the ministry’s Jan. 26 news release detailing the shift. He and others have been assured that in spite of Clark’s rhetoric, suggesting trades training is in and university is out, the news for SFU and other universities isn’t all that bleak.

Wilkinson is completing a province-wide tour of all post-secondary institutions this week, and I reached him at his visit to Thompson Rivers University in Kamloops.

“The response to this has generally been pretty good, because the students are putting this pressure on institutions themselves,” he said. “Some of the institutions are … shrinking things like teacher education and putting more effort into the science-based, quantitative fields that are often related to these in-demand occupations.”

The surplus of teacher graduates has been noticeable for some time, but that’s largely a function of oversupply in urban areas. In the Cariboo, for example, teaching jobs are projected to have the highest number of openings by 2022, followed by nursing and retail and wholesale trade managers. Then come heavy-duty mechanics and electricians, but also paraprofessional jobs in legal, social,

community and educational services.

Province-wide, it’s part of a broader demographic shift to fewer children and more retirees. In fact, the government started this

The news for SFU and other universities isn’t all that bleak. targeted funding a decade ago with health care, forcing universities to produce more doctors, nurses, lab techs and so forth.

The retiring baby boom is expected to account for more than half of the openings in the next decade, which will expand the skills demand across most fields, beyond the trades training for the anticipated liquefied natural gas industry and other high-demand industrial areas such as truck driving.

Wilkinson notes that of the ministry’s $1.9 billion budget, about 60 per cent goes into

general post-secondary education, for introductory courses that students take when they are seeking a career path, through undergraduate studies to professions.

“So I think the idea that we’re going to somehow minimize or diminish funding in that general education, arts and science category is just not true,” he said.

Key to this shift is measuring the performance of courses offered at colleges, universities and technical schools. Each year, the ministry surveys about 30,000 graduates to find out whether their studies helped them find a related job.

The results are available on a website that breaks them out by institution and general study area. To find it, do a web search for “BC student outcomes” and select the “executive dashboard” to check the results for courses and schools in your region.

The site provides charts showing the percentage of students who land relevant jobs.

Not surprisingly, it tends to be higher for technical programs and lower for fine arts.

It also shows grads’ average wages, a sobering but useful bit of information for high school students and their parents. tfletcher@blackpress.ca

YOUR VIEWS

Denying the amazing discoveries of science Anti-vaxxers are found in various forms, yet they have the common trait of being cognitively disconnected from reality. They have taken as a truth that personal beliefs trump science and that is simply absurd.

There’s no debate as the science and benefits of vaccines have been proven beyond any doubt except to that noisy minority who have mistakenly believed that ignorance has merit.

Vaccinations must be made mandatory straight across the board. Every single objection to vaccinations has been answered by people who actually know

what they are talking about. Vaccination is not just a personal choice so let’s get over ourselves shall we.

One source of the anti-vaccine mob are the fundamentalist churches such as the one out in Chilliwack that was ground zero in our own outbreak of measles last year. The Bible is not a science book. Despite what people might claim about the Bible, it is totally irrelevant to the argument that all children be vaccinated. To argue otherwise would be to defend a form of child abuse and to deny all the amazing discoveries of modern medicine.

If society truly wants

Irrational to invest in new fossil fuel sources

The sad news that Hemlock Resort has given up any hope of opening for this ski season, and the seemingly endless string of “pineapple expresses,” are warnings of the kind of events we can expect as a consequence of climate change.

While it is true that any particular weather event cannot be ascribed to global warming, it is becoming clearer that human activity has caused the weather dice to become loaded in favour of extreme weather events and changing patterns.

We have done this by burning fossil fuels and changing the composition of our atmosphere.

At 400 ppm, CO2 the greenhouse effect is now stronger than it has been for millions of years. Even if we were able to turn off all fossil fuel burning tomorrow, global warming would continue until CO2 levels returned to a more typical 250-300 ppm which would take decades.

The most hard-core environmentalists recognize that an immediate shutdown of fossil fuel consumption

is neither practical nor desirable, but they would be right to question why we continue to invest in expanding our fossil fuel infrastructure rather than building our renewable capacity.

With our understanding of the harm we are doing and the cost of adaptation to a changing climate, it seems irrational that we would invest in new sources of fossil fuels and the infrastructure needed so we can burn it.

Typewriter manufacturers in the early years of computers didn’t build more typewriter factories, they changed to products appropriate for the computer age or went out of business.

As the heirs to the Rockefeller fortune, built on Standard Oil, have been able to divest from fossil fuel, surely it is time for the fossil fuel corporations to change their business model and move into renewables.

If this were to happen maybe there would still be some hope for the climate, and Hemlock as a ski resort.

Neil Smith Mission

to protect children then both the run-ofthe-mill anti-vaxxers, and those that put misguided religious faith ahead of proven science, must not continue to be given the deference that they now enjoy out of some misguided sense of political correctness.

More than 30 per cent of Fraser babies not fully vaccinated Jeff Nagel

BLACK PRESS

33118 B, First Avenue, Mission (beside Royal Bank) • 604-287-2910

You are invited to the Mission Early Years Centre

Open House Feb. 18, 2015 11 am to 2 pm 33570 11th Avenue in Windebank Elementary Refreshments will be served.

More than 30 per cent of infants in the Fraser Health region are not getting vaccinated on schedule and public health officials say that rate of non-compliance is a concern.

Fraser statistics show 69 per cent of two-year-olds are up to date on the standard recommended vaccinations against diseases such as diptheria, measles, polio and Hepatitis B. That’s short of the region’s current target of at least 73 per cent and a goal of more than 80 per cent immunized by 2017. The province has a target of 90 per cent by 2023.

Medical health officer Dr. Michelle Murti doesn’t think the statistics reflect a dangerous level of ideological opposition to vaccinations.

She said 94 per cent of new parents in the region start their kids’ vaccinations at the two-month mark but many then fail to keep them up, perhaps losing track after they return to work.

“They do start but then life gets busy and we see significant drop-off over that two year schedule, especially at the 12- and 18-month points,” Murti said.

Nor is the phenomenon new.

Fraser’s immunization rates for twoyear-olds have hovered around the same level for the past five years, ranging from a low of 61 per cent in early 2010 to a high of 72 per cent in the spring of 2012.

Murti said she believes the rates are similar for B.C. as a whole and not unique to the Fraser region.

The health author-

ity recently released its statistics, she said, in an attempt to “capitalize” on public interest in the measles outbreak linked to Disneyland in the U.S. Fraser got more calls from parents wanting vaccinations in the wake of the Disneyland outbreak than during the local measles outbreak last year that was centred on Chilliwack.

Murti said the immunization rates are quite consistent across the Fraser region, with minor exceptions.

“We do know we have pockets of communities, especially in the Fraser East area, where we have low rates due to personal objection to immunizations,” she said.

Surrey’s Guildford and Cloverdale neighbourhoods, on the other hand, are a bit higher than the regional average.

Murti thinks technology can help parents keep track of their kids’ immunization schedules and boost rates over time.

She said parents can sign up for free text message reminders of when their baby needs to return for boosters or download a free smartphone app to record and follow the vaccination schedule.

There’s also a free child health passport that can be obtained from public health offices or downloaded online.

Links to all three resources, as well as immunization schedules and more information, can be found at fraserhealth.ca/ immunize.

Murti said it’s also important for newcomers to B.C. to transfer their health records so their immunizations are on file here.

Resident hunter protest pays off

By Tom Fletcher

The changes affect bull elk and either-sex elk permits on Vancouver Island, moose in the Thompson and Omineca regions, bison in the Peace region and bighorn sheep and grizzly bear in the Kootenays.

“I made slight revisions to the hunts for moose, bighorn sheep, grizzly bear, Roosevelt elk and bison to address the concerns I heard after the decision was released,” Thomson said.

There are 34 limited-entry hunts in the province that are divided between resident hunters and guide-outfitters, who typically guide clients from the U.S. and Europe. Resident hunters enter a regional lottery for the available opportunities.

BLACK PRESS

The B.C. government has adjusted its plan to give guide-outfitters and their non-resident clients a greater share of big-game hunting permits, after protests from resident hunters around the province.

When the plan was announced in December, the government calculated that it represented a shift of 168 animals in limited-entry hunt areas from resident hunters to guide-outfitters. After listening to the protests, Forests Minister Steve Thomson announced Friday that is being adjusted to a shift of about 60 animals to guide-outfitters.

Allocated hunting opportunities represent about eight per cent of the 45,700 big-game animals taken by hunters each year in B.C. In most areas, hunters can purchase a tag for each species that has an open season.

Thomson announced the policy change after more than 10 years of consultation with guide-outfitters and the B.C. Wildlife Federation and local rod and gun clubs that represent resident hunters.

He defended the shift to assist guide-outfitters as a trade-off that prevented them from using unoccupied guide territories around the province.

Those areas are now left to resident hunters.

Bighorn sheep in the Kootenays are among the restricted hunting species in dispute between resident hunters and guide-outfitters.

In Mission, it is projected that the demographic of residents aged 50 to 70 will see the greatest increase over the next decade, according to FVREB. “As realtors, we understand the importance of home and having the amenities and means to meet the needs of those who live there,” said Ray Werger, FVREB president.

“This donation will go directly towards helping our clients and reaching our vision of innovative health care for seniors in the Fraser Valley,” said Elizabeth Findlay, director of residential care in Fraser Health.

The FVREB represents more than 2,700 realtors who live and work in the communities of Mission, Abbotsford, Langley, North Delta, Surrey, and White Rock.

The Fraser Valley Health Care Foundation in Mission received a $5,000 boost from the Fraser Valley Real Estate Board this month.

The money will be used to help furnish The Residence with up-to-date health care equipment and other comforts for residents.

The facility, which opened last year, is operated by Fraser Health and provides support to seniors with complex care needs and dementia, and patients suffering from brain injuries.

“The money comes from our board’s charitable donation fund,” said Michael Gleboff, communications co-ordinator for the FVREB. “Every year whenever possible, the board, on behalf of our members, strives to support important causes and organizations to better the quality of life in our

DON’T DO ’T LET T YOUR O MISTAKES CRUSH YOU We all make mistakes, and sometimes these mistakes are big ones which adversely affect ourselves and the ones we love. It is often easier to live with mistakes that affect only ourselves than those which hurt the ones we love. But we should not allow ourselves to be crushed by our mistakes. We really should pick ourselves up, do what we can to alleviate the damage that we may have caused, and get on with our lives.

In fact, we should really have a mindset that plans on making mistakes. Not in the sense of actually trying to do something wrong, but in the sense that because we are human, we know that we will err and that our errors may sometimes be costly and painful. Our favorite cup will someday be broken, because we, or someone else, will drop it. Most car crashes are caused by driver error, and we can wallow in our guilt after an accident, or we can “dust ourselves off,” and move on with our life. I’m not suggesting that we be callous about our mistakes. A certain amount of guilt and remorse is appropriate, but it is important that we not wallow in self-pity precisely because that attitude makes it more difficult to help those we may have harmed.

For we all make many mistakes, and if any one makes no mistakes in what he says he is a perfect man, able to bridle the whole body also.

Book showcases the growth of shake and shingle industry The cedar business built this town: author Tyler OLSEN ABBOTSFORD NEWS

Although building methods and trends have changed over the years, Mission remains the “cedar shake and shingle capital of the world,” according to a new book that traces the industry’s long history in the community.

Written and compiled by Lynne Christensen of the Mission-based Cedar Shake and Shingle Bureau to mark a century since the region’s producers joined forces to market their products together, the book traces the industry’s past from its roots on the banks of the Fraser through its heyday in the middle of the 20th century, to present day.

Christensen said the business was key to Mission’s growth as a community.

“It built this town,” she said. Along with the berry industry, “it was shake and shingle mills that really got this town going.”

Much of the book, titled Celebrating 100 Years 1915-2015: A History of the Cedar Shake and Shingle Bureau, focuses on how the bureau has sold its products over the years. But it also profiles several local families that built thriving businesses in the Mission area and which continue to leave a mark.

The Lobb, Klassen, Wiens, Meeker and

Watkins families are all profiled.

Mission’s proximity both to the Fraser River and key sources of fibre allowed it to thrive as a shake and shingle hub, as did the people behind the saws.

“It almost brings a tear to your eye when you realize how hard these people have worked,” Christensen said. “I

have so much respect for families that have done three, four or five generations of hard work.”

While the industry has consolidated, Christensen said it remains “one of the few industries that haven’t been entirely automated.

“This is a craftsman’s skill,” she continued. “They found out how to do it really well in the beginning and they’ve maintained it.”

The book shows how the industry promoted itself and expanded during the Second World War, its shift during “The Groovy 1970s and Beyond” and efforts to overcome more recent challenges.

The bulk of the material comes from the bureau’s voluminous archives.

Upon her discovery of all the material, Christensen said she felt it important that the information – and the industry’s history and changing – received the attention it was due.

“I thought, ‘My goodness, no one really has taken the time to preserve the legacy,’ “ she said “It’s important that people know what this industry accomplished.”

To order the book, contact the bureau at 604-820-7700 or info@cedarbureau. com.

Hemlock Resort has cancelled the 2014/2015 ski season.

The resort made the announcement last week after the forecast still showed no snow for the next two weeks.

The decision falls hard on the local hill, which has been anxiously watching the skies since November.

“When you rely on what falls from the sky, you take the punches that Mother Nature gives you,” said Samuel Hicks, director of operations and human resource manager at Hemlock Resort. “At the end of the day, there’s no snow on the ground.”

The hill had its biggest snowpack in mid-November.

Since then, warm Pacific air flow has melted the accumulation with consistent rain and temperatures in the double digits. In a press release, the resort stated “warmer than average temperatures, heavy rain and negligible snow” led to the “regretful conclusion” to suspend operations for the balance of the season.

Hemlock Resort on Wednesday, Feb. 4.

With a set closing date of April 4 and no snow forecast in the next 14 days, the ownership group made the decision to “stop losing money on a daily basis,” explains Hicks.

Even if the snow did mag-

ically appear, staffing would be an issue now. The resort hired approximately 100 parttime staff, many of whom had already left the hill for other work.

“If we did open our doors,

we wouldn’t have the staff to turn the chairs,” states Hicks.

Hemlock announced they will honour the 2014/2015 Seasons Pass holders for the 2015/2016 season, regardless of any potential price increases.

“We’ve received great accolades from people for going above and beyond,” Hicks told Black Press, since every pass buyer signs a contract absolving the resort of responsibility for poor conditions.

Hicks says the closure does not change the future of Hemlock Resort.

“Our ownership group knows what they are doing and this is all part of the business.”

Last year, the mountain had poor conditions early on but managed to get enough snow for a late opening on Jan. 16.

In its 30 years of operation, there has only been one other time Hemlock failed to open, in 2004.

Former SFU basketball star Joby McKenzie will be joining her father in the Basketball BC Hall of Fame.

On Friday, chairperson John Buis announced this year’s inductees, which include “people and teams who have done extraordinary things for our sport, for our province and in many case for Canada.”

McKenzie was a key member of the SFU Clan’s women’s basketball team from 1994-98 that won four consecutive conference titles and appeared in the national championships four times. She was also a member of the 1998 Canadian national team.

Joby joins her dad Ken McKenzie, who was inducted in 2008.

“I was very surprised and very honoured to hear that I was being inducted into the Hall of Fame.

I share this honour with some good friends as well as with my Dad, which is the best part. I feel lucky to walk in my Dad’s footprints,” said McKenzie, who is now an executive member of LifeLabs Medical Laboratory Services in Toronto. “I really share this award with my parents for all of their support and encouragement over the years as well as two exceptional coaches: Allison McNeill and Bruce Langford. These years were such a special time in my life.”

Joby is a graduate

adversity and tragedy in a unifying effort to save lives.

“We’re doing something very different with this production in that we’re taking away all the trappings of a normal theatre production to bring sharper focus on the characters and their incredible accounts of 9/11,” said Hildebrandt.

“We’re performing it in the Great Hall of The Reach Gallery and Museum, and will be done with minimal costuming and sets, and under work-lights rather than fancy stage lighting.

The production should feel more like we’re in a make-shift incident command post than a theatre.”

Auditions will be held on Feb. 17 at 6:30 p.m. at Huntington Station, 100-34595 Third Ave. in Abbotsford. Call-back auditions will be held on Feb. 21 and rehearsals will start the week of March 9. The production will be directed by Carissa Boynton, who last directed productions of Tuesdays with Morrie and The Foreigner for the theatre.

The Alzheimer Society of B.C. in Abbotsford and Mission is hosting a “What is Dementia, Anyway?” workshop on Monday, Feb. 16.

The free workshop is open to people caring for a person with dementia or anyone interested in learning about the topic.

Topics covered include: the warning signs, current research on the causes and cures, and programs offered by the Alzheimer Society.

The session runs from 9:30 to 11:30 a.m. at Mission Seniors’ Activity Centre, at 33100 10th Ave. Registration is required by calling Jude Weir at 604-859-3889.

teen gold coins were also hidden and those who found them and turned them in received prizes. The Pennier family won the grand prize – a basket of treats from Save On Foods.

Participants also competed in collecting the most litter in the areas they were assigned. “…our winner for this challenge was Cam-

eron Keenan,” said Kristin Parsons, executive director of Mission Adopt-A-Block Society.

“This little guy went above and beyond, filling his mom’s jeep with many bags of litter, even venturing out to other areas of town that needed some clean-up.”

It took an hour for most families to com-

plete the hunt, but many spent extra time in their areas.

“This was a great chance for families to learn about the amazing parks, creeks, trails, and amenities that Mission has to offer and help tidy them up as a family, creating a sense of civic pride,” added Parsons.

MAC and MFMF Society receive grants BC Arts Council awards funds to museums, festivals, artists and more Two Mission arts groups received funding from the BC Arts Council to support their work this year.

Mission Arts Council received a $12,149 grant, while the Mission Folk Music Festival Society received $15,000.

More than $6.9 million was provided to 277 artists, museums and arts organizations

in 97 B.C. communities this year.

These most recent awards are a result of applications examined by the BC Arts Council’s independent peer-review process between Nov. 1, 2014 and Jan. 31, 2015.

The funding is part of the $24 million provided to the BC Arts Council by the B.C. govern-

ment to support the province’s arts and culture sector in 20142015.

“This public investment helps foster and promote the creation and enjoyment of the arts for the benefit of all,” noted Stan Hamilton, chair of BC Arts Council.

“Arts and culture are key building blocks for creative and vibrant

communities and they are essential to our quality of life and competitiveness,” said Community, Sport and Cultural Development Minister Coralee Oakes. “The arts and culture sector is a significant contributor to our provincial economy and is vital in the promotion of British Columbia as a prime location to visit,

work, live and invest.”

Last year, council approved in excess of 1,000 grants in more than 200 communities in every region of the province.

Since 2001, the provincial government has provided more than half a billion dollars for arts and culture in B.C.

Business Excellence Awards

Calling ALL businesses!! It’s that time of year where we want to start recognizing the wealth of businesses in our neighborhood that have highlighted innovation, exceptional customer care, support our local community or that entrepreneurial spirit.

All you need to qualify: Operate a business in Mission BC and receive one nomination in any of the following categories: THE BIG BANG – An established business that continues to have a strong presence by developing or creating new business programs, platforms and opportunities while continuing to be a contributor to the local community.

The 2014 winner - Prospera Credit Union, a financial education institution providing a full range of financial services delivered by an enthusiastic group of dedicated and highly educated staff. The business has evolved from a basic deposit and lending institution with a desire to meet expressed needs of its members to one that is now focused on providing personalized financial education to each of its members. To do this they employee a group of educated professionals, in all aspects of loans, mortgages, financial planning and insurance.

POWER OF SMALL - An emerging or existing innovative small business that exemplifies entrepreneurial spirit and vision with new products, services or process.

The 2014 winner - English Tarts Baking & Co. - a 20- seat tea room (restaurant) on First Ave in downtown Mission. Ruth Janes and Beth Lane are partners in this business that make simple yet sophisticated meals, traditional British style baking and a selection of teas and coffee. They also provide catering services and fill special orders for customers.

Their business venture began with a small stall at the Mission City Farmers Market where

It is with great anticipation that I really look forward to another “growing season” whether it be flowers, crops, businesses or as individuals.

There are a great many reasons to celebrate the past year at the Chamber and to project forward in anticipation of an improving economic environment.

To say goodbye to some staff and to welcome others in and to give them our full support.

Mission Regional Chamber of Commerce is a hub that can connect you to resources on the north side of the Fraser Valley. We want businesses to thrive in Mission. Through connections, support and advocacy, we work to grow businesses in the region.

Do you know that 70 percent of our member businesses have 5 employees or loss? Membership numbers in the Chamber are stable and while some business has moved on an equal number are coming in. The value the Chamber

adds to and for business is growing along with the membership.

Nominate Me launched last week for the 2015 Business Excellence Awards.

Nominate a business who continues to innovate, has a local focus, makes a difference to our community and give their customers exceptional service.

Don’t forget the nominations are open to ALL businesses not just chamber members.

We have a strong foundation at the Chamber which is complemented by a Board with a passion for Mission and its business community. We are moving into the election of board members in March. I would encourage and welcome any member to join with the Board as it continues to develop programs for the benefit of all businesses in Mission.

What’s On! Mission publisher Cory Cassel outside The Stage at the old Bellevue Hotel in Mission where he will be producing everything from theme parties to drag queen shows. Cassel is the 2014 recipient of the Mission Chamber’s Local Focus Award..

Spotlight on Excellence: Cassel’s passion for building community built on foundation of publishing, entertainment Rick Rake

CLICK MEDIA WORKS

Cory Cassel’s passion is building community. Through his work as publisher of What’s On! Mission Magazine, principal at Cory Cassel Productions, and events manager for The Stage at the old Bellevue Hotel, he always offers the public something different and exciting.

Cassel, recognized for the local impact of his glossy and online event, entertainment and leisure magazine, is the Mission Regional Chamber of Commerce 2014 Local Focus Business Excellence Award recipient. Cassel became publisher of the five-year-old publication in September 2013.

“To win the award gave me a feeling of validation. I finally felt like I was actually a business person. My nominations before came when I was an employee at Mission Community Services and the Bank of Montreal,” he said.

“The magazine is a success because we worked very hard at creating buy-in in the community. We started out by reaching out to the non-profits, giving them a platform to get their message out. We did that by sponsoring space in the magazine, not by giving it away.”

Now Cassel’s database includes some 200 people who make things happen in Mission.

But Cassel isn’t resting on his laurels. He relocated to Mission, plans to expand his magazine into two other communities and wants to build a publication for the LGBT community.

An invitation by The Stage and Mission Springs owners Brock Rodgers and Ken Brookes for him to bring new life to the events-only venue is seen by Cassel as a golden opportunity.

Look for murder mysteries, drag queen shows, and theme parties like you’ve never seen before: www.WhatsOnMission.ca.

Are You Practicing Business Excellence?

Business Excellence is not just about winning awards. It might be nice to have the recognition and the award on the wall, but business excellence is also a process to make your company perform better - to be more profitable.

There are lots of models for Business Excellence, with flow diagrams and self assessment questionnaires, which might seem a bit theoretical and academic for the small business owner, but thinking about business excellence can be a useful approach to improve how your company actually does business.

Some of the areas the excellence models make you think about are leadership, planning, your process management, staff, the customer experience, and

your supplier/partner focus. Think about it, are you practicing business excellence? The models are designed to help you ask the right questions, but they rely on the business owner to figure out how to be excellent.

Changing how a business operates is not an easy process, but you should always be thinking about other ways to work, and thinking about whether they improve any part of the model. Next time you do business with a company that seems to get business excellence right think about the parts of the model they have mastered.

Business excellence is actually an old concept that started in the industrial revolution when a growing manufacturing sector needed to

ensure standardization and quality control. It has evolved into a business performance model that any business can use. The EFQM model defines business excellence as; “The relentless pursuit of continuous improvement in both an organization’s results and the way in which they are achieved” It does sound a bit excessive, but it also works. And good luck to all you potential business excellence nominees.

ucts like the Grand Cherokee. With 420 lb.-ft. or torque, this new “EcoDiesel” has the same output as Ford’s Ecoboost but not the same towing capacity. Rated at 9200 lbs. this truck will be perfect for buyers who want impressive fuel economy and good towing capacity; a balance of usability and thriftiness. This engine has not been rated yet for fuel economy but, thanks to a standard 8-speed automatic transmission, the new EcoDiesel is going to get better numbers than the already class-leading gasoline V6 RAM. Having driven both the Jeep Grand Cherokee diesel and this RAM, I find the gearing and attitude of the RAM much more dynamic and actually inspiring to drive. In real world driving situations, this big luxurious truck can actually return fuel economy of 10L/100km without babying the engine.

Kelowna’s Monster Jam driver Cam McQueen hopes his Northern Nightmare truck will give the Grave Digger bad dreams on February 28.

That’s when the World Freestyle Champion will steer his Maple Leaf themed truck into a head-to-head battle at BC Place Stadium with the powerhouse of the circuit.

“Vancouver is my home show, I have lots of family and friends planning to attend so I want to do well,” says the determined 36-year-old man.

“We built a brand new chassis so I can go bigger in freestyle and be a much better contender in racing.”

The car-crushing monster truck action featuring 12 trucks gets under way at 7 p.m. Monster Jam royalty Tom Meents, the 11-time World Champion driver of Max-D; will be in the lineup and Scarlet Bandit returns after a 12-year hiatus.

Die-hard fans can enjoy the Party in the Pits preshow experience from 2 p.m. Regular tickets range from $25 to $50 and some children’s tickets are available for $10 each at Ticketmaster. All Access Pass packages are $125 and Pit Passes $10. More info at monsterjam.com. .com.

Verdict RAM has seen huge sales growth over the last few years due to constant improvements instead of waiting years to update its rigs. It started with dynamic exterior design, followed by class leading interior, then an 8-speed automatic and now a Diesel. There is even an off-road ready RAM, just shown in Detroit, due to arrive called the Rebel. The RAM EcoDiesel has been selling very well and Chrysler claims they will put this truck up against the new aluminum F-150 for top dog in the fuel economy race. Good times to be looking for a truck.

All-wheel-drive fun and then some

by Alexandra Straub

The 2015 Subaru XV Crosstrek, Forester and Outback have no problem showing the snow who is the boss.

They don’t even break a sweat if you’re commuting on surfaces that yield minimal traction or when putting the Subaru Symmetrical AWD system through its paces on a winter off-road course.

SELL US YOUR UN-WANTED

VEHICLE!

WE PAY

Let’s take a moment to talk about what makes Subaru’s system so potent in the snow or on slippery surfaces. To start, Subaru designed its AWD system for perfect balance. The boxer engine, transmission, and differentials create a symmetrical layout left to right. This increases stability in every situation, as there is less weight transfer from side to side.

Also, unlike the competitors, each vehicle is designed from the ground up to have a symmetrical AWD system as a standard feature. This makes the chassis and powertrain a harmonious match. Other competitors

often start with a 2WD system and add AWD to the same chassis.

It’s that kind of symmetry and engineering that instills confidence in Subaru owners.

More than 96 percent of Subaru vehicles sold in the last 10 years are still on the road today.

The symmetry allows for predictable and stable power delivery to each wheel, which was apparent in my test drive. With the traction control (VDC) on, you might experience a little bit of slippage if you go into a corner too hot.

But within moments, you’ll have your back end back where it should be.

2015 Subaru XV Crosstrek.

Yes, it’s a little bit of a killjoy if you’re honing your skills to qualify for a driver’s seat in WRC, but for 99.9 percent of the owners, it’s a saving grace.

Subaru’s active systems do their best to keep the driver and its passengers feeling relaxed and

calm behind the wheel.

Such was the case as the temperatures in Quebec plummeted below -15C. The frigid yet abundantly sunny day seemed like a perfect pair for taking the aforementioned Subarus for a test.

Starting the day with the XV Crosstrek, which has an MSRP of $24,995, was a treat. This lighton-its-feet crossover has charm and character. Even with the available CVT transmission, it’s pleasant to drive and has the

ingredients to make it a desirable all-season kind of vehicle.

Next came the Forester.

At a starting MSRP of $25,995, this five-passenger Subaru has some great qualities. Its high seating position elevates the driver to have a great field of vision and the roomy interior and excellent cargo capacity off 974L (seats up), or 2,115 L (seats down) sure fits a lot of stuff inside.

Lastly, and my favourite of the batch, was the

all-new 2015 Outback ($27,995.)

Maybe it’s because I love wagons, or the fact that there’s an impressive 1,005 litres of cargo space behind the rear seats (2,075L with them folded), or that you can get it with a 6-speed manual. It’s a very well-balanced vehicle, not to mention comfortable and quiet too.

Both the Forester and Outback have a little something extra, too. The CVT equipped models feature X-Mode, a system that further helps you gain more traction in low traction environments, and comes with hill descent control.

All of these great cars come with 220 mm of ground clearance, meaning you can save your money on a snow shovel!

Okay, that’s not entirely true, but that ground clearance allows you to trek deeper off the beaten path if that’s what you’re into.

Throughout the day’s activities, whether it was engaging the X-Mode system while stopped in the middle of a snowy incline, or allowing the hill descent control to work its magic descending that same snowy mound, one thing is certain: Subaru builds a strong product.

One might argue that they’re a little behind when it comes to styling and aesthetics. But not everyone needs the prettiest SUV on the market or one that is the most tech-savvy when it comes to infotainment.

The pillars on which these cars are built are the fundamental blocks that allow their owners to put their faith in them and have a blast while doing it.

Anyone who has purchased a car has faced an overwhelming list of features on the window sticker.

Over the years, there have been some imaginative features offered right from the dealership. Here are five of the more interesting examples.

Lightning Rods Shifter – 1984 Oldsmobile Hurst: The perfect option for any automotive enthusiast who just can’t get enough levers, the Lightning Rods shifter walks a very strange line between a typical automatic and a full ratchet shifter. As goofy as it may look, Lightning Rods have no problem putting the power to the ground.

Swivel Seats – 1975 Chevrolet Laguna S3: It’s a wonder that more cars weren’t offered with swivelling seats, seeing as those troublesome stationary seats are always such a bother to get in and out of. While the swivel seat was designed for easy egress, an added benefit is that your vinyl won’t wear out nearly as quickly.

Swivel seats were found in the 1975 Chevrolet Laguna S3.

Highway Hi-Fi record player – 1957 Chrysler 300: The Highway Hi-Fi did its best to stop the needle scratching your precious 45s. Not only is there a generous amount of suspension built into the record player, but the pressure placed on the needle was known to prematurely wear records out.

Rim Blow Steering Wheel – 1969 Ford Mustang Boss 429: In a time before road rage, Ford, AMC, Chrysler, and GM all thought it would be much better to get rid of the pesky horn button and just have drivers squeeze the wheel. One major defect of the Rim Blow was shrinkage, which caused the horn to sound all the time!

‘His-and-Hers’ Shifter (Hurst Dual/Gate) – 1969 Oldsmobile Hurst 442: One of the more sexist options to be offered on a car (to date), the Hurst Dual/Gate

Cal Edward Harris passed away suddenly but peacefully at his home on January 2, 2015. Cal was the eldest of five children born to Dave and Shirley Harris in 1957.

He was raised and educated in Thunder Bay, ON and in 1979 joined the Air Force to begin a long and successful career keeping his beloved CF 18’s flying. As a proud member of the 410 Squadron he was stationed in Cold Lake, AB and Baden-Soellingen, Germany. He was a Gulf War Veteran and saw active duty in Qatar. Upon returning to Cold Lake he retired from the Air Force and moved to Abbotsford where he began employment with Cascade Aerospace. He was a very talented aircraft mechanic who took great pride in his work. A soft spoken quiet man with an infectious laugh, he had many friends who loved him. Cal had a passion for drums, CCR, cats and 1974 Camaros.

Predeceased by his parents, Cal is survived by his daughter Heather of Edmonton, AB, her mother Susan of Cold Lake, sisters Kim Radl, LeeAnn Muzzin, brothers Shawn of Thunder Bay, ON, and David of Brookes, AB, as well many nieces, nephews and cousins across the country. A Service of Remembrance will be held on Friday, February 13, 2015 at 5:00 pm at Woodlawn Funeral Home, 2310 Clearbrook Road, Abbotsford.

SLEIGH Francis John Jan. 4, 1925 ~ Dec. 18, 2014

Francis (sometimes known as Frank) was born in London, and grew up in Worcester Park, Surrey, England. During WW2 he served in the Fleet Air Arm for three years. A talented artist, he then became a qualified architect. He married Daphne Swan in 1950 and they emigrated to Canada in 1957. After six years in North Vancouver they opted for the rural life, living first in Maple Ridge and later in Deroche. Francis had a keen interest in history and civic affairs. He served a term on Mission Council and ten years as director for Lake Errock.

He held office in various historical associations, and after retirement was a prominent spokesperson for seniors’ issues. He passed away in the Mission Hospital just short of his 90th birthday. A private interment in the Hatzic Cemetery.
