Bylaw takes aim at propane cannons

Alex BUTLER

Abbotsford News

The city has taken “the only course of action we have left” to deal with the conflict created by propane cannons, with a bylaw that will allow enforcement of the Ministry of Agriculture guidelines for bird scare devices, said Mayor Henry Braun.

Braun told The News that council’s approval of the bylaw on Monday – which now requires

endorsement from the Ministry of Agriculture – will not please everyone, but is a first step to addressing the problem.

The use of cannons is protected by the provincial Right to Farm Act. The devices, which emit multiple loud blasts, are used by farmers to protect their crops from birds, but many neighbours object to the noise.

Last year, the previous council approved a bylaw with stricter

regulations than the current version, but it was denied by the ministry, which said the bylaw would effectively ban cannons on half the farms in Abbotsford.

While Braun said he recognizes some residents are unhappy the city didn’t push that approach, he said the previous attempt for harsh restrictions didn’t work and “we lost a whole year.”

“I understand the plight of those who have cannons right

next to their houses and I think with the bylaw we will see the complaints go down. That’s what happened to the Township (of Langley).”

The new bylaw, like the ministry guidelines, allows the devices to operate from 6:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. – or from sunrise to sunset, whichever is less – and for single-shot cannons to go off once per five minutes and multi-

Metro jacks Matsqui garbage tipping Community Skate! fee over Abbotsford objection Jeff NAGEL Black Press

The City of Abbotsford is protesting Metro Vancouver’s sudden decision to jack the garbage tipping fee for the Matsqui transfer station from $109 to $150 a tonne – a 38 per cent increase.

The Metro Vancouver board passed a bylaw Friday to impose the Matsqui increase while also cutting tipping fees to $80 a tonne for haulers that dump large loads at other Metro transfer stations.

Metro officials claim they need the higher rate to get cost-recovery at Matsqui because of the flow of garbage to private transfer stations in Abbotsford.

Friday’s vote by Metro politicians passed despite a last-minute plea from Abbotsford.

“The new proposed 38 per cent rate increase results in an unbudgeted cost to Abbotsford of $190,000 for 2015,” Abbotsford solid waste engineering manager Barry Azevedo told Metro’s board.

“The rate increase is unfair, non-transparent, without

The Metro Vancouver board passed a bylaw Friday to impose the Matsqui increase. consultation, with insufficient warning and not within the historic application of the agreement (between Abbotsford and Metro.)”

Azevedo said Abbotsford was blindsided by the surprise change in the tipping fee because Metro had last October passed a 2015 tipping fee bylaw with only a one per cent increase.

The City of Abbotsford

gave notice to Metro last fall it will stop using the Matsqui transfer station effective Nov. 1, 2015.

Azevedo said the “sudden detour” by Metro suggests the neighbouring regional district is “acting punitively and in bad faith” to punish Abbotsford for withdrawing from the transfer station agreement.

Besides the hit to

Abbotsford of $190,000 this year, Azevedo projects Metro will also drive away other users of the Matsqui transfer station with the sharply higher tipping fee, resulting in a loss this year to Metro of nearly $600,000.

Metro’s rate cut at its other transfer stations is aimed at stopping the outflow of garbage from Metro to Abbotsford transfer stations and then south to be dumped in the U.S. A major jump in outbound garbage in recent years has cut into the tipping fees Metro gets and the province last year blocked the regional district’s attempt to outlaw garbage exports.

Metro directors were critical of the provincial decision and the debate also touched on the risk of increased illegal dumping because of an increase in tipping fees for small loads dropped at other Metro transfer stations.

Opponents of Metro’s garbage waste-to-energy strategy claim Metro’s efforts to keep waste within that region is to ensure there’s fuel to feed a future new incinerator.

Home invasion on Victoria Street Two women taken to hospital with undisclosed injuries Vikki HOPES Abbotsford News

Two women were taken to hospital with undisclosed injuries on Friday following a reported home invasion.

No details have been released on the extent of the injuries incurred by the women, ages 38 and 64.

The incident took place at about 10:30 a.m. at a home in the 2600 block of Victoria Street, just north of Union Avenue.

Const. Ian MacDonald said on Monday that police are still trying to piece together all the details and are continuing to interview witnesses and examine evidence video footage, as well as evidence obtained at the

scene.

MacDonald said it is unclear how many suspects invaded the home, but witnesses have indicated there were “multiple.”

He said home invasions are typically targeted incidents, although there have been circumstances where the suspects invaded the wrong home.

MacDonald did not know whether that was the case in this incident. He said the home in question does not have a significant history with police.

The major crime unit is leading the investigation and is being assisted by forensic identification unit members and patrol re-

Businesses get chance to offer OCP input Workshop to be held Feb. 19 The Abbotsford business community will get to weigh in with its vision on the city’s long-term future next week.

Abbotsford, which is updating its Official Community Plan (OCP), will host a Business Stakeholder Workshop on Thursday, Feb. 19 from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Clearbrook Library (32320 George Ferguson Way).

The city has in-

vited members of the Abbotsford Chamber of Commerce, Abbotsford Downtown Business Association and the Fraser Valley IndoCanadian Business Association to meet with staff, who will share what they’ve learned about Abbotsford and listen to the ideas and opinions of representatives of the business sector.

“The current OCP was created in 2005 and pro-

vided for a certain degree of flexibility in how the city developed,” said Allan Asaph, executive director of the Abbotsford Chamber of Commerce.

“Since then, a lot has changed and the city needs to hear from its residents about what kind of city they want to live, work and play in.

The OCP review process is our way to have a meaningful role in the future of Abbotsford,”

Asaph added.

The city is also hosting a series of “road show

events”

during February and March to engage residents in the OPC review process and has created a survey to allow residents to share their vision for the future.

The survey is available at www.abbotsforward. metroquest.ca.

Construction job growth in Abby

Construction employment in Abbotsford was more than 20 per cent higher in January than during the same period in 2014, according to statistics from the Vancouver Regional Construction Association (VRCA).

The number of construction jobs grew to 11,400 in January 2015. While that number was up just slightly (0.9 per cent) from December, it was 22.6 per cent

above the January 2014 total.

The VRCA attributed the growth to residential construction projects in the city.

“Abbotsford’s growth points to opportunities for the construction sector,” VRCA president Fiona Famulak said in a news release. “Building permit activity, typically an indicator of future construction, increased across the region in 2014. We expect construction employ-

ment to strengthen later in 2015, as well.”

Famulak said moderate growth in the regional economy and low interest rates will support construction activity in 2015.

The increase was at odds with numbers elsewhere, as employment in Metro Vancouver dropped 1.1 per cent between December and January and was 14.5 per cent below figures from January of 2014.

Farmers will face fines for misuse From A1

ple-shot devices to shoot 11 times per hour with a break between noon and 3 p.m.

Abbotsford’s proposed bylaw would only allow the devices to be used when registered annually with the city and to have signage with the registration number of the site and a phone number for those who would like to report a violation. Farmers would also have to have a bird predation management plan that includes information about the farm, what bird control techniques they are using, and records of bird presence and propane cannon use, which must be submitted to the city on request.

Currently, when residents want to complain about cannon use, they are directed to the B.C. Blueberry Council, which employs liaison workers to try to address the issue – but a fine cannot be levied.

Other communities, such as Langley and Delta, have ministry-approved bylaws close to existing guidelines and which implement fines.

City clerk Bill Flitton said the bylaw gives the city a tool to encourage farmers operating outside the bylaws to gain

File photo

The new bylaw’s fines for misuse start at $200 for a first offence, $300 for a second, and $500 for third and subsequent offences. compliance, and to fine those that don’t follow the rules.

Coun. Moe Gill objected, saying it puts extra work on blueberry growers. He had previously opposed a proposed $125 registration fee, which was removed from the new bylaw.

Coun. Patricia Ross asked why this new version of the bylaw removed the proposed registration fee of $125 per site, adding that Langley has a fee.

Flitton explained that he spoke with the manager of bylaw services in Langley and their fee can be considered a disincentive if the farmer doesn’t want to pay. He said if there is no fee it may encourage farmers to work with the city.

The bylaw also implements fines for misuse, starting at $200 for a first offence, $300 for a second, and rising to $500 for third and subsequent offences.

Council approved the bylaw with Couns. Gill and Les Barkman opposed.

Braun told The News the bylaw “gets us to first base.”

The Ministry of Agriculture has said it is open to considering modification of the provincial guidelines if the city has supporting data. Though Braun said a ban in the near future seems unlikely, he said residents who want the cannons gone need to address the issue with their MLAs. He added that the problem also comes down to the issue of starlings, the main predator on blueberry crops, and the city is studying that.

Council had previously looked to the Fraser Valley Regional District (FVRD) about the possibility of creating a regional program to manage starlings. The FVRD rejected the plan, citing concerns of costs, effectiveness, and pointing out that other jurisdictions have less of a starling problem than Abbotsford.

A city report on the potential for a starling trapping program will come before council in the future for consideration.

New Abbotsford councillor receives $127,000 severance from previous job

Phil MELNYCHUK Black Press

The cost to Maple Ridge taxpayers for the severance of departed economic development manager Sandy Blue was $127,038.

Blue was elected to Abbotsford council last November as part of the AbbotsfordFirst slate.

Maple Ridge Mayor Nicole Read made the announcement last week in a Facebook post on the Maple Ridge Council Watch page, saying she posted the amount as an example of the new council’s commitment to transparency.

“Further to council’s commitment to transparency, please know that the final severance amount paid to Sandy Blue in connection

with her termination was lot in the community and wished her the best. $127,038.30,” she said.

She said Blue has done a Blue running for election in

Abbotsford.

Bell questioned last September whether Blue would have the time to sit on Abbotsford council while managing Maple Ridge’s economic development.

Blue, though, said then she didn’t see any conflict.

As Maple Ridge’s manager of strategic economic initiatives, Blue made $107,676 in 2013. As one of eight councillors in Abbotsford, she’ll make about $37,500 a year, ($5,000 less than Maple Ridge councillors make.)

Blue had said her work schedules didn’t conflict.

Maple Ridge’s Monday morning council workshops, during which she sometimes gave presentations, start at 10 a.m., while Abbotsford committee meetings begin at 3 p.m.

Teacher admits misconduct, peace bond issued

Charges stayed against Tanner Cervo she was 14 to 19 when the misconduct took place, and her family said they were pleased with the outcome of the case.

Former Abbotsford teacher Robert (Tanner) Cervo “It’s been hell for everyone involved. It’s time to violated his position of trust in his misconduct move forward now,” the woman said. with a student, a judge said Friday in proceedings She said she agreed with the issuing of the peace that resulted in a peace bond being issued bond because it spared everyone the stress against Cervo. of a trial, which had no guaranteed outJudge Gregory Brown said in Abbotsford come, and Cervo had to sign documents provincial court that “boundaries were admitting to the facts. crossed” in Cervo’s behaviour.

Crown lawyer Sylvia Domaradzki told the court that the decision was made to proceed with a peace bond, rather than criminal charges, after “significant discussions” with all parties involved, including the 22-year-old complainant, who was a teen when the improprieties occurred. She cannot be named due to a publication ban that protects her identity.

Domaradzki said the discussions took into account the “weaknesses and strengths” of the Crown’s case, the viewpoints of the complainant and the circumstances of the accused.

“All of us approached this as a suitable resolution in this matter,” Domaradzki said.

The one-year peace bond was approved by the judge and signed by Cervo under the grounds that Cervo’s actions caused the complainant “a fear of sexual assault.”

Cervo must now abide by several conditions, including no direct or indirect contact with the woman or her family.

Only bulletproofing needed is on my house Mark

Rushton On the

Other Hand It’s so warm in Prince George, during the ongoing Canada Winter Games in that city, they had to shut down the outdoor speed skating oval, and ship those athletes a few hundred miles north to Fort St. John, to an indoor oval.

And down here on the truly balmy coast, for the first time ever I had to cut my lawn in February. Truly unprecedented . . . the earliest I have ever fired up the mower was March 1, and it’s usually not until the middle of next month when the grass growth kicks in.

Not only is the green stuff pushing forth; magnolias are blooming in Vancouver, my plum trees are about to flower and the wood ducks that usually arrive in March were here on Feb. 4. Coastal ski hills, for

the most part are closed. Even Mt. Baker, which a few years ago recorded the world’s greatest snowfall, has all but a couple of runs completely devoid of snow.

While I’m certain many in the doom and gloom global warming community are busy declaring “we told ya so,” this early onset of spring weather has to be an anomaly – too warm too quick to be part of a trend. And who knows, March could come in like a lion (remember, the groundhogs predicted six more weeks of winter).

However, I’ll take 30 degrees C in the sunshine when I can. It’s so warm even the dog is stretched out in the shade. The west coast too is blessed with the Pacific Ocean, not the cold Atlantic that still has winter in store for the eastern seaboard.

If there’s a downside for me in this week’s weather it is that once mowed the lawn will require tending at least once a week, and that means a new lawn tractor to replace my old JD which is well past its best-before date.

So while a new ride for garden chores is in my future, there is one rig I won’t be

buying: a bulletproof, grenade-proof and land-mine resistant Lexus LX570 SUV. First of all it is against the law in British Columbia, unless you have a permit, to drive an armoured vehicle for pleasure.

Secondly, why on Earth unless you are a criminal (and who among them gets permits) would you want such a beast . . .

This early onset of spring weather has to be an anomaly – too warm too quick to be part of a trend. and beast it is with windows thicker than a hockey puck.

Built in Ontario by a company named INKAS Armoured, not only are these vehicles bulletproof, they come with handydandy options like smoke and road spike dispensing systems.

Okay, I must admit, it would be ‘fun’ to have thee features to discourage roadraged tailgaters on the freeway. But otherwise folks, who and why would anyone want or need this stuff?

Although the story I read didn’t clarify which options were chosen, the company that builds these urban tanks states that 65 per cent of sales are to the public sector. Which means 35 per cent are to individuals in the private sector: “celebrities” rock stars, athletes, CEOs and, as INKAS described them, “rebel billionaires!”

However, if you are so inclined and have far deeper pockets than I, you can have one built for a mere doubling of the price of your standard luxury ride (the Lexus mentioned above is available for roughly $175,000, without smoke or spike dispenser).

For me, the aspiration is held to a new John Deere. With it, the only ‘bulletproofing’ required would be for the house windows when the blades fling stones after inadvertently mowing a molehill. markrushton@abbynews.com 34375 Gladys Ave., Abbotsford, B.C. V2S 2H5

Time travel

After learning that BC Transit, Abbotsford, and Chilliwack have committed to fund a regional transit service to connect these communities to Langley, I have only this to say: Welcome back to the mid20th century!

From 1910 until 1950, Fraser Valley residents enjoyed a “Triple E” regional transit service; efficient, effective and electrified from Chilliwack to Vancouver on the interurban rail line operated by BC Electric, the predecessor of BC Hydro. In 1950, as our regional road network expanded and the automobile became common place, BC Electric bribed every municipality with a one-time payment of $40,000 to cancel the interurban and replace it with bus service.

Now here we are 65 years later congratulating ourselves on the “achievement” of creating a bus link from downtown Chilliwack to Langley’s new park and ride. According to the information released on this new service, it will take approximately 80 minutes to travel the entire route. Once at the Langley park and ride, passengers can transfer to an express bus to the Braid Street SkyTrain station and travel to downtown Vancouver. TransLink says this trip will take between 60 and 70 minutes for a total travel time of approximately 150 minutes or two and a half hours.

The interurban train made this trip in three hours with no transfers. Congratulations everyone, it has taken us 65 years to shave 30 minutes off of the trip between Chilliwack and Vancouver.

Please excuse me for containing my enthusiasm as I believe this is merely another temporary effort to establish a viable regional transit service.

We continue to waste a permanent asset – the Southern Railway line from Chilliwack to the rest of the Lower Mainland. With some political will, good planning, sound engineering and a fraction of the cost of any of the new rail services that are being planned for our region, Fraser Valley residents could once again enjoy a reliable transit service to Abby, Langley and beyond. Let’s make a real, permanent commitment to a Fraser Valley regional transit service, not just another bus run that’s as temporary as the stroke of politician’s pen.

Welcome back to 1950, everyone; enjoy the ride while it lasts.

Don Davis, Chilliwack

Margaret Stenersen rallies for Greta Thousands raised as students belt out Frozen songs Tyler OLSEN Abbotsford News

Students at Margaret Stenersen elementary celebrated Valentine’s Day in a unique way this year: by singing songs from the movie Frozen for their absent schoolmate Greta Loewen, who is receiving treatment for a rare form of bone cancer and whose favourite movie is the Disney hit.

Instead of holding a traditional Valentine’s Day, the school declared Friday ‘“Love Greta Day,” and each class made a special poster for five-year-old Greta.

Vice-president Erica Hopkins said parents of Stenersen students approached the school with the idea.

“We thought it would be very good … to do a fundraiser that hits really close to home,” Hopkins said.

Both the fundraiser and the event was a success, with students singing the hit “Let it Go” at full volume.

The rousing rendition prompted Hopkins to tell the students: “I know when we send that video to Greta, her heart is going to be filled with so much happiness and love.”

‘Challenge of Parenthood’ presented Part of Shared Learning conference “The Challenge of Parenthood in the 21st Century” is the title of a presentation on Thursday, Feb. 19 as part of the Abbotsford school district’s annual Shared Learning conference.

The session is open to parents and guardians and starts at 6 p.m. at the Abbotsford Arts Centre, 2329 Crescent Way. The free presentation will serve as an introduction to “selfregulation,” a growing concept in schools around the world.

Presenters will be Mike McKay, director of the Canadian Self-Regulation Initiative (CSRI), and Keli Anderson, president and CEO of the Institute of Families for Child and Youth

Mental Health.

They will examine: What are the stressors for children and parents in this century? What are home and school factors which impact children’s health? How do we help our children become calm, alert and ready to

learn?

There will also be a free Community Programming and Services Showcase from 5 to 6 p.m., when representatives from child-serving community organizations will be on hand to provide information about their programs

and services.

The evening is jointly presented by the school district and the District Parent Advisory.

Pre-registration is required to ensure tickets at http:// sharedlearningconference.com/parentconference/.

The Abbotsford Police Department (APD) is trying to find a man who reportedly committed a lewd act on the patio of a woman’s apartment.

The incident took place Friday, Feb. 6 at 7:50 p.m. at an apartment building in central Abbotsford near Clearbrook Road and George Ferguson Way. Const. Ian MacDonald said a young woman on the ground floor heard her dog barking, prompting her to look out her sliding glass door.

She saw a man masturbating on her patio and turned on the patio light, scaring the suspect away.

Members of the APD patrol division and forensic identification unit attended the scene.

The suspect, who was wearing dark clothing, has not been located and is described as taller than six feet and possibly Caucasian.

MacDonald said the APD is encouraging citizens to report suspicious activity and to elevate their personal and residential security.

“Locking doors and windows and leaving exterior lights on are good basic security steps,” he said.

Anyone with information about the incident is asked to call the Abbotsford Police Department at 604-859-5225, text abbypd (222973) or call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

Taylor cut at Pebble Beach

The back nine at Spyglass Hill sank Abbotsford golfer Nick Taylor’s chances at last weekend’s AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am. Taylor was even par through the opening three rounds on the tournament’s three different courses, missing the cut of minus-six.

Taylor’s otherwise-solid weekend was marred by four bogeys and a double-bogey on holes 10 through 18 at Spyglass Hill in his first round.

Fellow Abbotsford golfer Adam Hadwin didn’t play in the tournament.

Both golfers will be back in action Thursday at the Northern Trust Open in Pacific Palisades, Calif. The tournament, at Riviera Country Club, boasts a $6.7 million purse.

Pilots face Kodiaks in first round

Alex JOEHL

Contributor

The Abbotsford Pilots won their final regular season game Friday, defeating the Langley Knights 5-3.

However, with a win by Mission City Saturday evening, the Outlaws took the third seed in the Harold Brittain Conference, forcing the Pilots to face the top-ranked Aldergrove Kodiaks in the first round of the Pacific Junior Hockey League playoffs, beginning Tuesday.

Abbotsford (21-210-2) was just 9-150 since New Year’s day and won just five of their final 16 games, dropping from first-place in the conference down to the final playoff position, with only the Ridge Meadows Flames finishing on the outside.

However, Friday’s victory showed head coach Jim Cowden some good things.

The team got goal scoring from a variety of places, and also had some solid goaltending from Jacob Crawford, who made 28 saves for his first win since Jan. 10. “We were all hoping for that and he played well,� said Cowden. “So going in, he’ll be our guy.�

Abby tallies came from Cole Methorst, Devan Vander Wyk, Colton Cowden, Kolten Grieve and affiliate player Brett Clayton. “We were kind of forced to look at him because we’re either last or second last in goals-for,� said Cowden. “Goalsagainst is good, we’re top-three or -four there, but we needed to figure out a way to generate our secondary scoring. Bringing him in makes it a little more balanced between the two lines.�

Bradley King also was put in the line-up, picking up an assist in his first game after two years away from the club.

After a scoreless first period, the Knights opened the scoring 94 seconds into the second. Hayden Smer sent the puck down low where Levi De Waal tipped the puck over to Dylan McCann at the side of the net, who backhanded a shot past Crawford.

About two minutes

JOHN MORROW Abbotsford News

The Abbotsford Pilots defeated Langley 5-3 on Friday night in their final game of the regular season. later, the Pilots got on the board. Grieve skated to the top of the face-off circle and unleashed a wrist shot with Colton Cowden screening, giving him 16 goals – and a teamleading 46 points – on the season.

The visiting Knights scored shorthanded at 10:55 when Carson Rose blew past two defenders and beat Crawford five-hole to give them the lead.

However, on that same power play the Pilots again knotted it up.

D e f e n c e m a n Arshdeep Shergill chased the puck in the corner and fed it to Mitch Plevy, who

centred it for Clayton in the slot. The affiliate player’s hard wrist shot beat Nickolas Trenciansky glove side for the Abbotsford native’s first PJHL goal in his fourth junior game.

Abbotsford took its first lead of the game at 12:52, when Trent Huitema’s shot from the blue line was redirected by Vander Wyk. But just 11 second later, the game was again even, when Alex Kalau deked to his backhand and scored five-hole. “We played well,� said Cowden. “We went up and then we battled back. They tied it off the face-

off but we continued to push forward. [The negatives] are simply things we can work on.�

The final goal of the period went to Abbotsford, when Colton Cowden stepped into a slap shot at 16:35, giving the home side a 4-3 lead heading into the second intermission.

The Pilots roundedout the scoring at 5:05 of the third. Plevy drove to the net, and Methorst buried his rebound for his 10th of the year.

The best-of-seven playoff series begins with games Tuesday and Wednesday in Aldergrove. Both games start at 7:15 p.m.

Game 3 is Friday at MSA Arena and Game 4 goes Saturday at MSA Arena. Both games are a 7:30 p.m. start.

If necessary, Game 5 takes place Wednesday, Feb. 25, at Aldergrove, starting at 7:15 p.m. and Game 6 goes Friday, Feb. 27 at Abbotsford at 7:30 p.m.

Game 7 (TBD) will be played at Aldergrove at 7:30 p.m.

expert, a groundskeeper, and a missionary. He was a man of action, always finding ways to keep busy and moreover, help others. When he wasn’t serving abroad, he was very involved in the life of his church. He used the proceeds of his work to fund many Christian endeavours, many of which took him and Lorna to a variety of third world countries together.

Among the organizations he served with are Camp Kawkawa, Disciple Making International, Operation Mobilization, and Gleanings for the Hungry, the latter being the organization he was with when he passed away in Dinuba, California.

Throughout his life, he had a love for motorcycles and airplanes and anything that had a motor (he owned 33 motorcycles in his life). But increasingly, relationships were what counted in his life. His family meant the world to Harvey, and he was known for beginning many of his stories with descriptions of his kids and grandkids. Above all, Harvey was a follower of Jesus, and was passionate about sharing the good news of God’s grace that he had experienced himself.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Gleanings for the Hungry (www.gleanings. org) or Camp Kawkawa (www. kawkawa.com).

Memorial service to be held at 2pm, Friday, February 20th at Heritage Alliance Church.

WALKER, Wynn William Wynn passed away at age 67 after a courageous 14 month battle with pancreatic cancer. He passed away peacefully in his home on February 12, 2015 surrounded by his family. Born on March 18, 1947 in New Westminster, BC to Mildred and James Walker, Wynn was the eldest of 3 children. At the age of 6, Wynn began to cultivate his entrepreneurial spirit by selling berries at the side of the road. During his teen years he attended Killarney secondary school and worked at Douglas plywood mill on Annacis Island. In 1969 Wynn operated a salvage mill on Burn Road in Burnaby, B.C and then in 1974 bought a small sawmill in Ruskin B.C. Over the past 40 years, the business has grown to include 3 mills known today as The Waldun Group which is known worldwide as one of the most successful cedar shake & shingle manufacturers. Wynn realized his dream to see the business grow and spent much of his life dedicated to the business. Wynn spent over 50 years enjoying the beach at Boundary Bay and Point Roberts where he as a boy, spent every summer - and would then grow up to watch his boys enjoy the beach and explore the clay cliffs.

Wynn enjoyed taking “quick” day trips and had a love for classic cars. He loved to swim and putter in his vegetable garden. He will always be remembered for his spectacular light display every christmas. Wynn is survived by his mother Mildred Walker and his loving wife, Tracey Walker, brothers: Brett (Marcia) Walker and Tipp (Colleen) Walker. His legacy will live on through his children, Clayton (Anita) Walker, Curtis (Loni) Walker, Colin (Rebecca) Walker, step-daughter Jessica (Tyler) Wierzioch, his 11 grandchildren: Jacob, Paige, Anika, Nolan, Carter, Kash, Westin, Kate, Klade, Johanna, and Emma as well as his two nieces: Holly and Hillary Walker. The family would like to thank Dr. Shuel and the palliative care nursing team that provided exceptional support to allow Wynn to stay in his home. Donations can be made to the cancer society in Wynn’s memory. In lieu of flowers, we ask that you take a moment to hug your child, grandchild or friend. Memorial service will be held Saturday February 28, 2015 at 1pm at Cedar Valley Mennonite Church, Mission B.C. Condolences may be sent to the family by visiting www.bakerviewcrematorium.com
