SERVING MISSION SINCE 1908

Seniors survey unveiled Kevin Mills

MISSION RECORD

Seniors have skills, training and experience, and the Mission Seniors Centre Association wants to tap into that gold mine of know-how.

A new survey has been created, with the help of The Mission Record, asking Mission residents aged 55 and over for information on their work experience, training and knowledge and their willingness to share it.

The association plans to build a database that can be used to help establish seniors-orientated programs and activities.

“We want to get an idea of what skills seniors have out there in the community,” explained Bob Ingram, president of the association.

“I’ve always believed there are a large number of seniors who have retired and they have carried with them a great deal of expertise.”

It could be in management, trades, medical or anything, he explained.

And because the survey is local, Ingram said the information will be used strictly for the benefit of seniors in the community.

“One of the things we are doing is committing to not share that database or that information with any other agency or organization.”

Genstar plans cancelled Carol Aun MISSION RECORD

Genstar Development Company has ended its development plans in Mission, putting all of its Silverdale property on the market.

More than 710 acres of Genstar-owned property is up for sale, along with 460 acres of land owned by Madison Development Corporation, listed as one package with Colliers International.

The property totals more than 40 per cent of the southwest Mission lands slated for urban development in 2004. The entire area, about 3,400 acres, was to be developed in phases over 40 years and would have increased Mission’s population by 33,000.

Genstar made a corporate decision to pull out of the development scene in B.C and will be clos-

ing its regional office in Burnaby, said Genstar president James Hammermeister, speaking from the company’s corporate headquarters in San Diego, California.

He explained the company has struggled in recent years to secure land for development in B.C. “Land holdings in the Lower Mainland are very fractured,” said Hammermeister, noting his company’s specialty is bringing large tracts of land to the development level.

He estimates it would take at least another two to five years before a development in Mission would be marketable, and there isn’t enough work in the area for the company to sustain a B.C. office until the project in Mission proceeds.

Hammermeister added Genstar would consider working with another partner to move the

With the operational changes at Genstar, Madison president Sam Grippo told The Record his company had to make some decisions as well.

Grippo said the Madison Group has expertise in commercial developments, not residential projects, and was relying on Genstar to take the lead on the venture.

Now Madison is coordinating with Genstar to offer the whole project for sale, said Grippo.

Mike Younie, Mission’s director of development services, said the developers have done extensive work to prepare the land for development and everything will still be in place if there are new owners.

Silverdale lands put up for sale District hopeful another developer will step in with new ideas FROM 1

development – it may even speed things up,” he said, suggesting another company may have new ideas and want to get things moving more quickly.

“There are all kinds of questions and ideas when land of that size changes hands.”

Mission’s economic development officer Stacey Crawford said the departure of Genstar is a loss to the community, but agreed change also presents an opportunity to re-evaluate the plan for the southwest area of Mission.

“We’ve had discussions for a number of years to make something happen, however (Genstar’s) priorities and areas of interest have appeared to change.”

Comprised of 48 legal parcels, the Silverdale lands will be marketed locally and internationally. An asking price has not been listed, and interested parties are being asked to suggest their own estimate as to the value of the land.

“It is one of the largest contiguous properties in B.C.,” said Morgan Dyer, senior vice-president of investment and land development with Colliers International, and sales agent for the property.

Dyer noted the prop-

In 2008, the Silverdale Neighbourhood One Plan, which included a village centre (above) was proposed as the first of many phases of development in Silverdale. erty is attractive because there is a neighbourhood plan in place that offers direction for development.

“Silverdale is the next largest land development area in the northeast sector (of the Lower Mainland),” said Dyer.

“This could be a gamechanger for Vancouver.”

The value of the land is difficult to determine.

While Mission Mayor Randy Hawes has said it could be worth more than $200 million dollars, local realtors and builders’ associations agree that an overall value is virtually impossible to assess.

“It totally depends on

subdivision potential and density,” said realtor Cal Crawford, adding that some of the land has high density potential.

He said one acre may have 12 units on it and another may have six so calculating the value is difficult.

Genstar and Madison Genstar has owned land in Silverdale since the 1970s, and assembled close to 1,300 acres, including Silvermere Island, in less than 10 years.

Madison began acquiring property in Silverdale in 1967. When it purchased 460 acres in Silverhill, the com-

pany coordinated with Genstar to develop a comprehensive plan for southwest Mission.

The lands were recognized for urban purposes in Mission’s Official Community Plan in 1978. Genstar and Madison initiated discussions with the District of Mission in 1997 to build in Silverdale.

After a lengthy public hearing, council approved an OCP change to redesignate about 3,400 acres of land in southwest Mission to urban residential in 2004.

The two companies financed extensive research such as geo-

technical and environmental studies.

They were to bring municipal water and sewer service to the area at a cost of close to $80 million, and a plan for the first phase of development was presented in 2008.

Neighbourhood One consisted of about 364 acres with 1,400 dwelling units and a village.

It was considered by the district to be the most environmentally conscious plan ever created in Mission with a large environmentally sensitive area and a network of trails.

In 2009, the district and the companies signed a 20-year Phased Development Agreement (PDA) to protect the developers from zoning changes in exchange for provid-

ing certain amenities to the district, such as parks and trails, lands for transit use and a community centre. Last year, amendments were made to the PDA to allow each developer to proceed with the project on an individual basis.

Younie said it may be “impossible” to determine how much time and money the district spent throughout the process so far, but all the costs associated with consultants and some district staffing costs were covered by the developers.

Silvermere The first piece of Genstar-owned property in southwest Mission changed hands last year.

Westsea Properties picked up about 25 acres of property that fronts

Hayward Street about a year ago from Genstar and completed the sale of Silvermere Island and its lake earlier this year in January.

Previously, Genstar had come up with several proposals for the entire 350- acre property, including developing 70 acres while preserving 261 acres as the lake, and dedicating 12 acres as a park.

The Vancouver-based company is holding it for a syndicate of owners, said Bob Scragg, Westsea’s director of development who declined to reveal the number of people involved.

Scragg said the island “seemed like a nice investment,” but noted Mission has to decide what kind of development it wants first.

Hawes: ‘A new beginning’ Carol Aun MISSION RECORD

Mayor Randy Hawes hopes development in Silverdale will happen soon now that development companies Genstar and Madison have put their properties up for sale.

“I know they were not prepared to start building anything in the short run,” said Hawes, HAWES who is ambivalent about the companies’ move to offload more than 1,100 acres of land in southwest Mission.

“Genstar has been here for a long time. We have a relationship with them and I’m sorry it’s coming to an end, but I’m going to call it a new beginning.

Sometimes new beginnings are a good thing.”

Hawes has accepted that Genstar is exiting the B.C. market, but recognizes the work the company has done to prepare their lands in this community for development.

He said his council will keep an open mind and are amenable to any discussions a new owner may want to have.

“We’re going to be quite flexible,” said Hawes, adding another company may not want to start development with the neighbourhood proposal created more than seven years ago.

“If whoever buys it has a solid plan that makes sense, we will support it.”

Hawes knows there are some people opposed to the Silverdale development, but he promised, “a handful of people will not hold the process hostage

for the rest of the community.”

Hawes, who was serving as Mission’s MLA when Genstar and Madison went through the process to redesignate the land from rural to urban residential in the Official Community Plan, recalled “night after night of repetitive dribble.”

He said some of the speakers opposed to development were “highly insulting of Genstar, council, and anyone who supported development was belittled and berated.”

In the end, it sends a “terrible message” to anyone who wants to come to the District of Mission, Hawes noted.

“There is nobody that wants to destroy the environment. We all live here,” said Hawes.

“That property has been slated as the future of Mission for decades and it will be good to see something started there.”

More information needed about community mailboxes Carol Aun MISSION RECORD

Mission council is asking representatives from Canada Post Corporation (CPC) to discuss changes to this community’s door-todoor delivery service at an open public meeting on April 20.

Late last year Canada Post announced plans to eliminate door-todoor mail delivery in Mission in 2015. The change would affect 6,100 addresses. About 7,700 homes in the community already receive mail from a central location and when the conversion is complete, close to 99 per cent of residents will be served by community mailboxes (CMB).

CPC provided information about the change and sent out a survey to all affected residents in December 2014.

According to a report to council, based on the 1,276 responses received, mail security was the primary concern among residents (66 per cent). Eight per

NOW OPEN IN MISSION! Signs are being placed on lawns all around Mission in support of keeping door-toKEVIN MILLS PHOTO door mail delivery. cent said their main issue was accessibility.

Based on the input received, CPC listed six commitments to Mission residents: • CMBs will be placed in small sites close to homes • Special arrangements will be made for persons with disabilities and seniors with mobility challenges • Apartments and condos will still receive mail in their lobbies • CMBs will have secure and tamper-proof features • Locations selected will be a safe distance from the road, and close to street lighting

where possible • CMBs will have an anti-graffiti coating Despite the commitments, council believes there are still questions that have to be answered.

District staff is being consulted on where to place the CMBs, but the locations have not yet been selected.

“The public still has a lot of questions,” said Mayor Randy Hawes.

“Do people with accessibility issues … get mail delivered to their home? If a (CMB) is destroyed, do you have to drive to Abbotsford to pick up their mail?”

Coun. Pam Alexis

observed moves are being made for the change, but noted there is a “Save Doorto-Door” campaign underway.

“I’ve talked to a few posties and they say it’s not a done deal,” said Alexis.

Residents with concerns about mail delivery changes are encouraged to submit their questions to the district’s website, mission.ca. Council will try to have the points addressed when they meet with CPC. CPC is expected to begin the installation of new CMBs this summer.

QUESTION OF THE WEEK

Door-to-door discussions

Despite some public efforts to stop the change, Mission is scheduled to lose its door-to-door mail delivery beginning this summer.

Mission council’s request to meet with representatives from Canada Post is merely an opportunity to get clarification on how the new community mailbox system will be implemented and what the public can expect from the new service.

Canada Post has already begun its fiveyear plan to phase out door-to-door delivery.

If some members of the public think the proposed meeting will change anything, then they haven’t been paying attention to what has already gone on in the rest of the country.

Communities across Canada have been voicing concerns and objections to the new community mailbox program, to no avail.

In Calgary, one woman has a community mailbox placed on her lawn, just by

her kitchen window. She says that no one from Canada Post or the city consulted with her about the location, despite promises from Canada Post to do just that. She merely got a notice in the mail that it was being installed.

Mission council needs to prevent that kind of situation from happening here.

District staff is being consulted on where to place the new community mailboxes, but the locations have not been selected. Staff need to ensure that the locations chosen don’t negatively impact homeowners.

Other questions need answers as well.

What mail service will be provided for seniors or other people with limited mobility? What happens if the new mailbox is vandalized or robbed? Can mail be picked up at alternate locations?

The district can’t stop the change from happening, but it should do everything it can to manage how the change occurs.

The meeting is a good first step.

YOUR VIEWS

Former councillors question budget Mission’s 2015 budget gives taxpayers a pretty clear picture of how a Randy Hawes council works; actually, how Hawes works a council to get what he wants. Hawes’ previous record as mayor proved he’s even more intent on spending increases than raising taxes, leaving a big bill for future councils and taxpayers. By contrast, the last council was committed to fiscal responsibility and paid down the debt by 65 per cent; most of Mission’s remaining $6.9 million debt is from the Leisure Centre.

It’s hardly surprising that Hawes’ 2015 budget raises taxes at double the rate of inflation, with an even greater increase in spending. What wasn’t clear was whether

the new council would rubber stamp Hawes’ priorities, or limit his spending.

Many reasonable questions should be considered.

Does Mission need more police, or might some of this budget be better spent addressing underlying social problems? Is this the right time to build new sports facilities, or should the Leisure Centre be paid off first?

And are these expenditures higher priority than a seniors’ centre, or downtown revitalization?

The supposed need for more police isn’t substantiated by RCMP statistics, as reported April 2014 by Inspector Richard Konarski. Even with Mission RCMP short-

New Patients Welcome!

staffed by five members (10 per cent below the funded level), property crimes in Mission were down by about 12 per cent and violent crimes down one per cent.

The new sports facilities will predictably cost more. Removing the $521,800 transfer to debt retirement is irresponsible, and spending the $413,200 interest (saved by the previous council) are one-time cashgrabs that will mean higher future taxes.

The $504,000 for “council flexibility” is entirely unjustified, looks like a slush fund, and should be eliminated to bring spending closer to the CPI rate of inflation.

Tony Luck and Jeff Jewell Mission

ELECTRIC FREE TOOTHBRUSH! Why is cat travesty allowed to continue?

I last made a delegation to Mission council seeking empathy for stray and feral cats in Mission. As a few councillors had not witnessed strays in their neighbourhood, it was felt no problem existed and a few questioned the estimated 3,000 stray and feral cats I suggested were in the District of Mission.

You might appreciate the astonishment a few weeks ago hearing Surrey had a problem of over 34,000 stray/feral cats, followed by Langley claiming 22,000 cats.

So, it does not take a rocket scientist to imagine Abbotsford

or Mission, with no progressive bylaw with breeder permit conditions nor adequate shelters, that 3,000 strays in Mission is reasonable to expect, with Abbotsford somewhere in between.

Mission pays over $250,000 for a dog pound but no cat control, beyond the vastly underfunded – approximately $22,000 – Fraser Valley Humane Society, lacking volunteers and adequate shelter space. In reality, it should be an estimated minimum $ 85,000 fee with a shared facility expanded to accommodate cats.

The major cause and solu-

tions of cat over-population, are an indifferent mayor and councillors, lack of a progressive spay, neuter, tattoo and breeder permit bylaw, with significant fines; a bylaw to reclassify owners to more appropriate guardian designations; and a “legislation supported by education” approach.

There is a lack of effective trap, neuter, release programs, due largely to under-funding; lack of foster guardians; and a lack of continual media public awareness campaigns.

There are irresponsible guardians who fail to provide

a caring home; instead neglect to have cats spayed or neutered to prevent unwanted litters, and throw the cat out at night to get pregnant, or worse, provide dinner for coyotes, often in most inclement weather. The time for compassion, and to overcome the indifference of leaders, has long past. There is no excuse today for such negligent care of companion animals, so the burning question exists: Why are you permitting this travesty to continue?

George F. Evens Mission

No simple answers to downtown issues I wish the Downtown Business Association well in trying to revitalize Main Street. It is the same fight that other communities have had to deal with after making the mistake of allowing Wal-Mart in.

There are solutions out there to make Main Street the hub of the community as it once was. Some will take time such as increasing the population density

in that area to provide a customer base within walking distance of the shops and offices. Many malls are themselves being rebuilt to include apartment towers just for the reason of providing readymade customers for their retail tenants.

But there are bigger problems which will be beyond solving unless we decide to take a very hard line on the very

real sources of decay.

Namely the addicts, homeless people, and their enablers.

Maple Ridge also embarked on an aggressive campaign to revitalize its downtown core but that hasn’t attracted a lot of the business traffic that was hoped for.

That can be laid at the foot of those enablers who have brought over 700 homeless and addicts into that area

despite the best efforts of community planners and local businesses.

So there`s the rub, how to move out the dregs of society and their enablers in order to attract new businesses to Main Street.

The enablers think they are doing good but they are just deceiving themselves although they will have their defenders.

The whole issue of what should be done to

deal with the homeless and/or addicts is beyond just one downtown business association to solve. But solve it we must as a province, even if that requires moving those people out of the area for their safety and ours and bringing in mandatory rehab for the addicts away from communities to separate them from the dealers.

The goal of the association is to create a new seniors’ centre in Mission.

A task force was struck several years ago and a report was sent to council recommending the construction of multi-generational centre that would serve the whole community, but would include specific spaces dedicated for seniors’ use.

Required features include a large meeting room that could be divided into three smaller rooms, a kitchen that offers a lunch program for seniors, but could also cater events held at the new centre, and a building that provides easy access.

“That’s what we would like to see built in Mission,” said Ingram.

A feasibility study is being conducted, and hopefully will be complete before summer.

“The council has been very supportive of the idea,” said Ingram.

The association already has $500,000 put aside to go towards the capital cost of the project, plus another $500,000 in trust. The interest earned from the trust will be used for operating costs for the centre.

The money came from the Marilyn Boswick Memorial Fund.

There are approximately 9,000 seniors living in Mission, and the association currently has 120 members.

Intensity of rain factor in flood the intensity.

According to the Bradner Road weather station, the closest to Mission, 20.2 mm of rain fell on Friday and 35.1 mm on Saturday.

MacDonald called that a “reasonable amount” but nothing close to the March daily record of 73.6 mm The significant factor, according to MacDonald, was the rainfall rate, which he said typically causes the most impact.

Mission received 13.3 mm of rain between 5 and 6 a.m. on Saturday. That’s more than onethird of the total amount of precipitation that day. “‘That’s pretty significant.

You’re getting close to tropical

Kevin Mills MISSION RECORD

A massive amount of rain in a short period of time contributed significantly to Mission’s flooding problem on Saturday morning.

More than 12 homes in the McRae Avenue area were damaged by flooding and residents continue to clean up and assess the damage caused by water overflowing a clogged culvert.

And while it may not seem to have been an overly large amount of precipitation, Environment Canada meteorologist Matt MacDonald said it wasn’t the total rainfall amount that was impressive, rather it was

downpour type intensity.”

He said that high rate is a once in every five years occurrence.

“Culverts, streams and gutters only have a certain capacity and it just greatly exceeded that, I’m assuming,” said MacDonald regarding the flooding.

Mission Mayor Randy Hawes said he believes the culvert would have handled the water flow had it not been for a discarded Christmas tree and an old chair that were swept along and plugged the grate.

“It wasn’t a blockage because of negligence,” said Hawes, adding that all of the culverts were inspected in February.

Website reveals more about Mission escapee Justin Beddall BLACK PRESS

A posting on the Wanted by the RCMP website reveals more details about the fugitive inmate who escaped from a federal prison in Mission last August.

Norman Gilbert Riel slipped away from Mission Institution on Aug. 24, where he was last seen getting into a white Chevy Suburban. Police launched a manhunt for Riel but he managed to elude capture. His whereabout remains a mystery.

Riel was serving a life sentence for the second-degree murder of a Vancouver man who was fatally shot in the back of the head after four masked intruders brandishing weapons, one of them Riel, stormed his Vancouver apartment in 1994.

In the past, Riel has fled to the United States to avoid apprehension.

RIEL On the RCMP website, it states: “Riel has a lengthy history of living off the avails of prostitution and is likely to attend locations frequented by sex trade workers. It is believed that Riel’s family members will aid and enable him to avoid apprehension. Riel may be in the company of his wife and two unidentified males.”

The RCMP posting describes Riel as “a member of the West Coast Players gang and an associate to the Jamaican Posse gang. He has a number of affiliates in the United States (Las Vegas, Hawaii and Los Angeles) as well as contacts in the Mexican and South American drug cartels.”

More details about Riel from the site: Aliases: Paul Atkinson / James William Baldwin / Norman Gilbert Mayes / Eric J Stanger / Rodney Zimmerman.

Sex: Male Born: March 1973 Place of Birth: British Columbia Hair Colour: Brown Eye Colour: Brown Weight: 275 lbs / 125 kg Height: 5 ft 9 in / 175 cm Tattoos: -Left hip panther -Right shoulder panther Scars: - Right knuckles - Left forearm Riel is considered to be violent and should not be approached.

Ingram named to provincial council Kevin Mills MISSION RECORD

Bob Ingram has been chosen to serve on a new provincial council dealing with seniors’ issues.

The Mission resident is one of 30 people appointed by B.C.’s Seniors Advocate Isobel Mackenzie to sit as a key volunteer adviser to the advocate.

Ingram, who is the president of the Mission Seniors Centre Association, said the new role will be a little different from what he does now.

“It entails, I guess, becoming a lot more familiar with seniors’ issues as they fit into the provincial context, rather than just locally in Mission,” said Ingram.

He doesn’t think it will impact his current volunteer duties, saying it will “probably be a couple of meetings a year and some telephone conferences,” as well as report reading.

Ingram enjoys the work, saying he can’t just sit and do nothing.

“Retirement is a myth, if you want it to be.”

Mackenzie feels there is a lot of talent on the new council.

“The applications for this council were outstanding and it is inspiring to see so many seniors willing to offer their time to serve fellow seniors,” said Mackenzie.

“This is an exciting

new journey we are embarking upon and I am very fortunate that I will be guided in my work by actual seniors who can ensure their many perspectives are heard and considered.”

The appointed council members bring perspectives from a vari-

ety of backgrounds.

Among the group there are advisers with experience in social work, teaching, health care, business, and local government, to name a few. Advisers range in age from 65 to 85, and live in 26 municipalities in all regions of B.C.

Natural gas. Good for shaving expenses.

Mission's newest realty office offers a different kind of experience when it comes to purchasing property.

Heating water accounts for about 20 per cent of your home’s energy use. With natural gas rates at some of their lowest in a decade,1 a high-efficiency natural gas water heater can save up to $270 a year for a family of four, compared to an electric model.2 Rebates are also available.

The crew at Mission City Realty, which officially opens today, will work together to help clients reach their goals. That means there are no individual agents in the office, and potential purchasers can be served by anyone at Mission City Realty.

CANCER FUNDRAISER Canadian Cancer Society volunteers, like Denyse, will be selling daffodils this weekend in Mission and other communities. The sales raise funds and support Canadians living with cancer.

Reaching for the stars Brian Antonson predicts there will be star parties on the deck of the Rotary Observatory and Space Science Centre at Heritage Park by summer.

“We need about another $100,000 to fully finish the building for a space science centre, but the observation deck is almost done and can hold 100 star-gazers at a time,” said Antonson.

With a $100,000 grant from the province and $20,000 from the Rotary Club of Mission, along with donations in lieu, the building is standing and the siding is going up. The railings around the observatory are now completed. There is the matter of stairs to the deck, but Antonson is optimistic those will be completed soon.

Now he is turning his attention to buying the powerful dome telescope.

The Rotary Club of Mission has already raised a substantial amount of the money for the telescope through its fall gala,

and hope to add to that with a Star Gazer fundraiser on March 28 at All Saints Anglican Church.

There will be an irish stew, a curried vegetarian dish, desserts and music by Retro Fire throughout the evening. Tickets are $35 each and can be purchased at Earthtacular Rock and Gem on First Avenue or by phoning 604-768-9600.

Antonson has been working with Craig Breckenridge, a renowned telescope-maker who has offered to design the telescope free of charge and work with a BC fabricator who will provide a “very good price” for his work. Antonson expects building the telescope will cost $20,000 to $25,000.

“Right now, Breckenridge is designing a telescope for placement in Hawaii worth $1.5 billion. Imagine Rogers Arena with the top turning, and you have an idea of the scope of telescopes Breckenridge designs,” he said.

THE SPRING OF LIFE After the long cold night of winter, spring comes as the year’s dawn. In the midst of winter, it seems as if life is literally being pulled back into the Earth, receding from the surface of our planet.

But each year spring inevitably arrives, and life surges once again, bursting out from the tips of trees and the earth itself in vibrant greens and yellows that can only signal that life is waxing once again. Life on earth has a rhythm to it, a pulsing cycle of waxing and waning tides. The sun rises; the sun sets. The sap rises; the sap falls.

Flowers bloom and flowers fade. We inhale and we exhale. Growth and decay, like our breathing and the beating of our hearts, is a surge of life, and then a receding of life. Perhaps what we love about spring is that we can literally see and feel the surge of life. The earth is again coming back to life, and as a part of nature, we feel once again that bloom of youth which adds zest and vigor to our own lives. Spring is the season for those who love life. Thank God for making each of us a part of this beautiful cycle of life.

For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven: a time to be born, and a time to die.

District Update THIS IS OUR MISSION In the Spotlight

Parks, Recreation & Culture

Water Main Cleaning

Tuesday is Family FUN Night at the Mission Leisure Centre

Water main cleaning is a key component of maintaining water quality. Annually the District of Mission cleans approximately 20% of the water system mains. Cleaning is achieved by inserting disinfected bullet shaped foam swabs into the water main via a fire hydrant and then allowing the water pressure to push the swabs through the main scrubbing the pipe sidewalls to a fire hydrant at the end of the main where the swabs and the scoured debris are flushed out of the water main.

It is extremely important residents not open their taps during the cleaning times because they can draw into their plumbing debris laden water, which is unsuitable for drinking and will plug your household screens.

The cleaning schedule is being updated daily at mission.ca.

Heavy rains slow fishing CONTRIBUTOR

“There is no comparison, none at all, between sitting with your rod in a shallop, in one of the low. Marshy lagoons of the south, surrounded by huge alligators sunning themselves lazily upon the blackened logs that float the turbid water, whose sluggish surface is not unfrequently rippled by darting of deadly moccasin hissing past you – and trading the verdant banks of some beautiful, rippling brook in New England; gurgling and leaping in its course to the ocean, with its cool retreat for its watery tenant, under melancholy boughs, or amid the still water of an eddying pool.”

This passage of antibass sentiment was submitted, by an anonymous correspondent, to and published by, the Turf Register in March of 1831.”

Species prejudice has manifested its self in many forms from the very beginning of North American sport fishing. All

species have all been maligned, and in many locations, at some point in our history, by different sects of the sport fishing community of North America.

Personally, I believe each species and its fans are due respect and appreciation for the sport they offer. It is a large continent and there is room for all the species we pursue for sport; prejudges should be allowed no quarter.

The Report: Fishing on our Lower Mainland lakes is fair. The recent heavy rains have slowed the bite considerably; watch the barometer and focus on upward trends. For wet fly fishing try: Bloodworm, Chironomid, Wooly Bugger, Doc Spratley, Halfback, Micro Leach, Six Pack, Souboo, or Baggy Shrimp.

T Our Lower Mainland bass and panfish waters are slow. For bass try: Wooly Bugger, Big Black, Dolly Whacker, Clouser’s Deep Minnow, Lefty’s

Deceiver, Dragon Nymph, Foam Frog, Chernobyl Ant, or Popper.

For panfish try: Micro Leach, Bloodworm, Chironomid, Wooly Bugger, Dolly Whacker, Tied Down Minnow, Black Gnat, or Tom Thumb.

T The Fraser River is fair to good for cutthroat and dolly varden. For cutthroat try: Rolled Muddler, Eggo, Chez Nymph, Big Black, Black Stonefly Nymph, or Micro Leach. For dolly varden try: large, size 4 to 1, Eggo, Zonker, Dolly Whacker, Clouser’s Deep Minnow, or Lefty’s Deceiver.

T The Vedder River is slow to fair. Try GP, Squamish Poacher, Polar Shrimp, Popsicle, Big black, Flat Black, Eggo, or Black Stonefly Nymph.

T The Harrison River is fair for rainbow, and cutthroat. For rainbow try: Rolled Muddler, Zulu, Eggo, Chez Nymph, Big Black, Black Stone Nymph, Micro Leach.

It’s do or die tonight for the Mission Outlaws. The local junior B hockey squad has lost three straight playoff games and now face elimination entering tonight’s contest against the North Vancouver Wolf Pack.

The Outlaws, who won the first two games of the Pacific Junior Hockey League championship, are now down three games to two and must win at

home in order to force a seventh and deciding match.

On Tuesday night, Mission travelled to North Vancouver and came out on the short end of a 5-2 score.

The Wolf Pack came out strong, jumping to a 2-0 lead. Late in the second period, Mission’s Nicholas Thompson found the back of the net to narrow the lead to 2-1 The Outlaws Bryce Pisiak tied the game up at two, but that was all the offence the locals

could muster. The Wolf Pack scored three in a row to put the game away.

Friday’s 11-5 loss was one the Mission squad would like to have back. The locals charged out to a 4-1 lead in the first period and it looked like it could be easy sailing the rest of the way.

However, the Wolf Pack had other ideas.

At the midway point of the second period, with Mission leading 5-2, North Vancouver began the comeback,

scoring nine goals in a row.

Mission goals were scored by Ryan Sharma with two, Ram Brar, David McGowan and Bryce Pisiak.

On Saturday, the Outlaws were back on home ice, but fell 7-2.

Tonight’s game starts at 6:45 p.m. at the Mission Leisure Centre.

If the Outlaws win, the seventh and deciding game will take place on Saturday night at 7:15 p.m. at the North Shore Winter Club.

Dawgs bring home hardware The Mission Mud Dawgs field lacrosse club finished the season by winning three medals at the boys provincial field lacrosse championships.

The U-14 Mission Mud Dawgs field lacrosse squad celebrate their bronze medal victory at the provincial championships.

SUBMITTED PHOTO boys jumped out to a 4-1 lead. However, the powerhouse from Richmond showed why they were unbeaten, as they came back to win the final 8-5.

Nathan Mckeigan was named game MVP and was also selected as the MVP of the tournament

in the U-16 age group.

Q The surprise medal came in the U-14 tier 1 division where the Mission boys entered the tournament as the lowest seed. In the opening game they tied the top-ranked New Westminster Salmonbellies 3-3 in what was

an amazing defensive effort. They followed that up with a victory over number-six seeded Pacific Rim, which put the locals into the semifinals.

The boys lost the semifinal game to Ridge Meadows and then bounced back in

“Barry MacDonald envisions an inclusive classroom where boys feel at home; where their rambunctious energy is accepted; where their rebelliousness is channeled into inquiry and exploration. Without compromising gains made by girls, a Boys Smarts approach to schooling responds empathically to the needs of boys so that they can better realize their learning potential.”

Mission Seniors Living 55 Plus Seventy-six year old Lazar Buhalo works on his upper body strength with personal trainer Reese Wonnacott. Buhalo decided to work out after chemotherapy left him with nerve damage in his legs.

Never too old to exercise

Kevin Mills

MISSION RECORD

Don’t tell Lazar Buhalo that working out is a game for the young.

The 76-year-old Mission man has been exercising with a personal trainer for the past six months and he’s feeling better than he has in years.

But it wasn’t an easy road to get to the gym.

Buhalo had been diagnosed with colon cancer and had to undergo chemo and radiation therapy.

“Afterwards there was quite a bit of nerve damage, particularly in my legs.”

After going to specialists in neurology and circulation issues, Buhalo said there was nothing left they could do for him.

“It got to the point that I couldn’t walk more than 30 metres.”

Frustrating for a man who still loved to go canoeing. He was forced to rig a pulley system to get himself

in and out of his canoe because his legs couldn’t hold him.

Being forced to sit all the time just made his circulation issues worse and caused him more pain.

He became more and more frustrated until he happened to drive by a sandwich board sign advertising a personal trainer.

“I thought well, we’ve tried everything else let’s give this one a try.”

That’s when he met Reese Wonnacott and Buhalo’s life started to change.

“I came in and talked to Reese about what the problem was and he set up a particular program, just to work on my legs.”

After eight months of being “almost crippled” Buhalo said he was ready to give it a try.

Two months later, his legs were functioning again, to the point that he could resume walking.

“I walk about a kilometre a day now.”

After showing such positive results, Buhalo decided to start working on his upper body as well.

Wonnacott, who runs ProFormance Fitness in Mission, said from the moment Buhalo came in, he knew he could help him.

“Everybody has their own ailments and issues and he seemed eager so I was happy to work with him.

He had already taken the first step, just walking through the door. That’s always the hardest part.”

Wonnacott put together a program that took into account his client’s health issues, goals and age.

“It started off pretty simple. You just have to get somebody moving.”

He started Buhalo with footwork drills to move his feet and regain control of each step. Then moved on to speed and agility and improving range of motion.

“Everything seems to have progressed well. I’ve been impressed CONTINUED ON 24

The perfect crib hand

GERHARD VAN ROSEN PHOTO

Kevin Mills MISSION RECORD

RICHARD LEPINSKY

INTRODUCTION Richard is 60 years old. He was born and raised in Winnipeg as a hockey kid and started playing drums at the age of 11. In 1991, Richard and Aline’s son Nathan died at the age of 15, due to respiratory complications. After visiting a friend in Victoria, they moved to that city in 1997. During that time, he was the chapter leader for a bereaved parents group called The Compassionate Friends (TCF) for 10 years. About two years ago, Richard picked up the ukulele after being inspired by watching “The Mighty Uke” documentary. He had been a member of Rotary Clubs in Winnipeg and Victoria. In August 2013, they moved to Mission to be closer to new grandchildren here, and celebrated their 40th wedding anniversary in 2014.

VOLUNTEER Since moving to Mission, Richard joined the Rotary Midday Club where he volunteers for club projects and serves on club committees. He has started a new bereaved parent chapter in town, TCF Mission. The group meets on the second Monday of each month from 7 to 9 p.m., at the Hospice office on Hillcrest Avenue. In 2013, Richard started the Mission Ukulele Circle that meets Wednesday afternoons from 1:30 to 3:30 p.m. at the St. Andrews Place Hall.

KEEPING ACTIVE Richard tries to either walk or bike four times per week. He has recently joined a three-member neighbourhood rock band playing the drums, called Retro Fire. He also composes and records music, posting some on YouTube.

Search his name on YouTube to find his channel.

“Life is good, so I try to give back, and pass on what I know.”

SAVINGS DAY at Mission Canadian Tire First Tuesday of every month

It took more than 80 years, but Joan Finch was finally dealt the perfect crib hand.

The 92-year-old Mission resident was playing crib last week at the Château on Seventh Ave. when all the right cards came her way.

She was dealt the jack of diamonds and three fives and had the five of diamonds come up on the deck. That makes a score of 29, the highest score possible in the game.

When she saw her perfect hand, she had to pause for a moment.

“It didn’t register what it was,” she said with a laugh.

When she put her cards down to show the other players, their reaction was swift.

“They all went berserk.”

The players were making such a noise that Finch’s son Keith came running towards the table.

“He thought I was having a row with the other people.”

Keith said he heard the shouting and thought something was wrong.

However, once he got to the table, he realized what had happened.

“I wasn’t sure it was Mom who got it, I knew it was her table,” he said.

Scoring a 29 hand is a rare feat. Any-

one familiar with a crib board knows the significance of the number. Many boards are even shaped like a 29.

Joan said she doesn’t know anyone who has had one, except for her son, who did the feat about 14 years ago.

While happy with the hand, she believes it was all just luck.

“Well, it’s not skill when you have the cards in your hand.”

Of course, now she’d like to repeat the feat, but the odds are long indeed.

“It’s a once in a lifetime really,” said Keith.

Still she’s enjoying her brief experience with fame as all the other players are constantly asking her about it.

She plays crib three times a week.

with him. He’s really powered through,” said Wonnacott.

As a personal trainer, Wonnacott knows the benefits of remaining active and tries to promote it.

“It’s about quality of life. What kind of life do you want to be living? How long do you want to live it?”

He said he trains a lot of people in

their retirement years and “they see the benefit.”

Buhalo is now a believer. He still works out three days a week and plans to continue.

“I’m 76 so I figure I should go for another 10 years with a personal trainer.”

And when he’s not working out, he’s happy to go out on the water in his canoe, with no need of a pulley.

Why We Bought at Cedar Valley Manor Testimonials from two Cedar Valley Manor owners: Don Olds

Val Saunders

We have condo dwelling friends who have had to deal with failed balconies and huge repair bills, shoddy maintenance, and real property values below their original investment! No thanks. Neither do we want our home’s equity spent on rent and nor do we want to gamble on getting a decent landlord.

Cedar Valley Manor was the answer to my question: “When I give up my own home, where am I going to go?” I wanted to move early enough in my aging years to make my own decision as to where I wanted to live. When I heard that MASH was building apartments with seniors first and foremost in their plans I knew I had to investigate. ..

It has been a few months since we moved to Cedar Valley Manor in Mission. We look out at lawns we don’t have to cut, trees we don’t have to prune, gutters we don’t have to unclog and driveways we don’t have to shovel!

What more could I have wanted? – I am cozy, have space, ample storage, and was able to bring all that I will ever need from my home to here. Yes I found the place for me. It was a great move.

LIKE PUZZLES? THEN YOU’LL LOVE SUDOKU! This mind-bending puzzle will have you hooked from the moment you square off.

HOW IT WORKS: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a Sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle.

Golf Sportwagon scores a hole in one ‘‘

The smooth power, along with the good feedback to the driver, plus the well-insulated cabin reminds us why this car has won so many awards.

’’

Zack Spencer

SELL

The latest seventh generation Volkswagen Golf has been a huge hit, winning the World Car of the Year award, along with the North American Car of the Year and several other titles.

The effort and billions of dollars, VW invested in its small car platform, called MQB, is at the core of this success. This lighter, yet stronger platform is so flexible the Volkswagen Group has plans to use it for dozens of vehicles throughout the many brands it builds. The benefit to the consumer

is a vehicle that is lighter, can use a smaller, more efficient engine and, with huge economies of scale, VW can lower the price.

The Golf hatchback along with the sportier GTI is available in the market now and very soon the Sportwagon (station wagon), built on the same successful platform, will arrive.

Looks One could be forgiven for not noticing the major changes in this 2015 model but that is the way VW likes to do things-keep the exterior looking

familiar, yet radically update the things that are less obvious. The one thing that should get any buyer’s attention is the new starting price of $22,495, which is roughly $1,100 less than the last model. In addition, the base model gets standard 15-inch alloy wheels, heated seats, Bluetooth and a backup camera for a total of $2,000 of additional value. The Sportwagon is sold as the base Trendline, the middle $24,695 Comfortline and the $30,495 Highline, with a $1,400

premium for an automatic transmission and $2,300 more for a TDI diesel engine.

Inside This Sportwagon is a true sport utility vehicle. It has the lower, sportier stance of a car coupled with a huge cargo area that would put most small crossovers to shame. The front seats are heated and the rear seats split and

Drive What can’t be seen but is instantly obvious when driving is the new 170hp 1.8L turbocharged base engine, that is so much more advanced and responsive, compared to the old, less efficient 5-cylinder in the previous model. This engine has superb mid-range torque and it runs on less expensive regular fuel.

It’s efficient too, using 9.5L/100km in the city

fold. The remainder of the cabin is the same as the regular Golf family, with front and rear passenger dimensions the same except for rear passenger headroom, which makes way for the beautiful panoramic sunroof. The dash has high quality switches and dials and even the base model is fitted with a 14.7cm (5.8-inch) radio screen that doubles as a backup camera. This screen size is a bit on the small side but VW will increase the size slightly when the 2016

Smart sport utility vehicle needs a try

and 6.6L on the highway.

The optional diesel, with 150hp, but more importantly, 236 lb.-ft. of torque is only marginally more efficient, rated at 7.7L city and 5.4L on the highway. Considering this engine is $2,300 more expensive, the new turbo gasoline engine will certainly be a sensible choice for drivers that don’t pile on the kms.

The gasoline engine gets a 5-speed manual or a 6-speed automatic; the diesel gets a 6-speed manual or the high-tech duel clutch automatic.

It’s too bad both engines are not offered with the TDI’s transmissions.

Great news for VW fans, waiting for all wheel drive (AWD), the 2017 model will arrive with AWD in the Sportwagon and that technology should spread to the rest of the Golf line.

Verdict Volkswagen held the launch event for this Sportwagon in Texas, hoping for beautiful sunny weather but we were treated to pouring rain.

With the wipers plugging away and the radio on, this latest Golf feels all grown up, almost “Audi Light”. The smooth power, along with the good feedback to the driver, plus the well-insulated cabin reminds us why this car has won so many awards. The Sportwagon takes all the goodness of the hatchback and shares it in a slightly longer and more useful package. If you are in the market for a small sport utility, give this truly sporty utility a try.

EVANS Gladys Florence Oct. 23, 1936 ~ March 22, 2015

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our mother at Abbotsford Regional Hospital with family by her side. Mom was 78 years old.

She will be forever missed and lovingly remembered by her children: Gina (Allen) Helmer, Rick (Cathlene) Evans, Teresa (James) Stevenson and daughter-in-law Kathy; her grandchildren Luke, David, Melissa, Ashley, Rachel and Rebecca and other family and friends. Gladys was predeceased by her sons Rod and Jeff and grandson Benjamin.

Mom was always up for a “Tim’s” coffee or some fun at the casino. She was an avid reader, adored her Toy Pomeranian, enjoyed crafts and found pleasure in nature but most of all loved her family.

As per mom’s wish there will be no service. In lieu of flowers the family asks for you to do a random act of kindness.

PAWSON, Dorothy March 1, 1925 - March 20, 2015 It is with great sadness that the family of Dorothy Evangeline Pawson (nee Carlson) announces her sudden but quiet passing on March 20, 2015 at the age of 90.

Dorothy was born on March 1, 1925 in Rainy River, Ontario.

As a teen her family moved to Surrey, BC where she attended high school at Queen Elizabeth Secondary.

In 1946, she married Allan Pawson in St. Helen’s Church and began life as a wife and mother. Dorothy and Al raised their 5 children on 129 St among wonderful neighbours and friends, many of whom attended her 90th birthday party last month. Upon Al’s retirement from longshoring, they moved to “the farm” in Mission and spent 25+ years enjoying life in “god’s country” which they shared with their children, grandchildren and many of the great-grandchildren too. Many memorable summers and Christmas’s were spent together in that wonderful place.

Dorothy was generous of heart, giving many hours of volunteer service to her community well into her senior years as well as donations to charities that mattered to her and her family. She was also a keen card player, bingo and yahtzee enthusiast and lover of sweets - all of which she enjoyed partaking in with her grandchildren.

Dorothy moved to Langley and spent her last years close to her family, enjoying vacations and time with friends. She attended Christmas concerts, hockey & soccer games, birthday parties and grad ceremonies watching her great grandchildren grow up. She was a huge fan of large family gatherings and especially enjoyed summertime parties at Cultus Lake with everyone. Dorothy was a cheerful, fun loving woman until the end. Predeceased by her husband in 2003, she will be greatly missed by her brother Bill and sisters Delores and Bea, children Phyllis, Linda, Nancy, Alana (Ray) & David (Denise), 10 grandchildren & their spouses and 17 greatgrandchildren. She will be remembered by many extended family members and friends.

A celebration of life will be held on Friday March 27, 2pm at Murrayville Hall (21667 48th Ave) in Langley. In lieu of flowers and in memory of Dorothy’s giving nature, please make a donation to a charity of your choice.
