CEPCO pulls pin as CBSA moves in for hundreds of pieces of Canadian military uniforms, weapons, artifacts and vehicles.

Sited in a building owned by the City of Chilliwack’s economic development arm, Chilliwack Economic Partners Corporation (CEPCO), the museum has been in operation

since it set up a temporary display in 2007. Prior to the closing of CFB Chilliwack in 1995, the building was home to the clothing stores on Petawawa Road near the trailhead at the Vedder Bridge, a place all new base arrivals first went to get their kit.

The temporary display became a

semi-permanent one as then CEPCO president John Jansen allowed the CMEC folks to use the otherwise empty building for the museum. The non-profit association of passionate military collectors paid no rent and the understanding always was that something permanent should be sought out.

The bigger surprise might be how long it took CEPCO to find paying tenants at the ever-expanding Canada Education Park. That new tenant is Canada Border Services Agency’s (CBSA) training program.

Eight years after the establishment of a popular military museum in an apt location on the grounds of the old CFB Chilliwack, the Canadian Military Education Centre (CMEC) Museum has a little over a month to move out.

man with a violent and extensive criminal history from Quebec to Chilliwack was handed a long-term offender designation along with a seven-year jail sentence in B.C. Supreme Court last week in connection with a 2012 home invasion.

A diminutive and stubble-faced Marc Cadieux, his right arm in a sling, actually nodded in acceptance or agreement when Justice Brian Joyce handed him the seven-year federal penitentiary term in court on Sept. 2.

That jail sentence, which EB IRST amounts to five First reported on years, 52 days after chilliwacktimes.com time served, will b e f o l l ow e d by 10 years of supervision by the courts thanks to the long-term supervision order.

One of the victims of the home invasion said she was “somewhat satisfied” with the sentence and hoped there would not be an appeal, which would further involve her family.

“I am extremely pleased he received the maximum amount of supervision on long-term status,” Belinda Robertson told the Times. “Effectively he will be supervised in some sort of manner

OUTof the

Alain and Marguerita Marchand sit with a portrait of their son, Bubbs a week before he would have turned 18.

I’m still waiting, there are so many people, the house is full. I didn’t need her to say anything.

The window was open a little bit and I could hear someone walking on the gravel.

You could tell it was the constable coming down the driveway.

She didn’t have to say anything.

- Marguerita Marchand

W

hen Marguerita and Alain Marchand received the official word that their 17-year-old son was gone, they already knew.

The couple had pieced it together on their own through gathered facts and intuition.

Why hadn’t Gregg (or Bubbs, as he was known) responded to a message asking if he would be at his girlfriend’s ultrasound appointment?

Usually he texted Marguerita back quickly, but at least a day had passed.

On the day of the ultrasound, the Marchands were running an errand when they were detoured around an apparent accident on the railway tracks near Evans and Ashwell roads.

Marguerita felt sick but kept it to herself.

When they contacted the RCMP, Bubbs and another boy were reported missing.

But when someone close to Bubbs told Marguerita the police had shown them a photo of her son’s bag and shoe, it was hard to hold out hope.

“I’ve never felt so sick in my life,” she said. “I felt

DARKNESS into light

like my heart was in my throat. I was praying to Bubbs and I could feel him come close.”

Marguerita lit a candle in their living room, and they waited the longest week of their lives at home in Seabird Island to hear the news from the police.

Found weapons under his bed Bubbs was Marguerita’s third child.

Photo & Story by

Greg Laychak He started to struggle with school in Grade 5 and by the next year he was being sent home frequently.

Marguerita adjusted his diet, first removing foods with sugar, then caffeine, then dyes.

As he got older Bubbs started walking around at all times of the night, not sleeping regularly.

And his older brother walked in on him once

when Bubbs was cutting himself.

Doctors and counsellors didn’t help, and Marguerita couldn’t get a diagnoses or funding for a son she was increasingly convinced was mentally ill.

Online research led Margeurita to believe her son was bipolar.

“Then in the last years, from ages 15 to 17, I noticed that he was being sleep deprived,” she said. “We were finding weapons in his room, under his bed, under his pillow.”

Sometimes they were kitchen knives, stolen from the drawers. Other stashes they found were made by Bubbs—implements created with nails, heavy bars and chains.

He had, in that span, finally been prescribed medication that helped stabilize his moods.

“When he was stabilized he was very artistic,” his step-father Alain said. “He was a very good artist, he got into carving.”

“His potential . . . he was looking towards becoming a professional cook.”

Bubbs became settled enough to go to school for a while, but he would get the feeling that he was better and would stop taking the pills.

And the decline was noticeable, Alain said.

Bubbs was open about being suicidal, voluntarily going to the hospital with Marguerita.

But after waiting he would tell staff what they { See LIGHT page A4 }

› News { LIGHT, from page A3 } wanted to hear, not the truth.

“How does a child begin to explain what they’re seeing and hearing?”

Marguerita asked. “I finally found out that he was scared of a man wearing black. He said he could never stay in one place for too long because that man would find him again.”

“He could never say who he was.”

After reviewing the train’s video footage the coroner told Marguerita that it wasn’t an accident, that Bubbs wasn’t under the influence of a substance and he hadn’t passed out on the tracks.

Instead, he was laying there, holding his bag tightly.

“It’s been really hard to accept his decision,” Marguerita said through tears.

‘Need to find a way to stop the dying’ really be strong?” she asks, emphasizing the participant-led quality of the research.

Answering that question will in turn help prevent suicides, according to Chan.

Primary prevention focuses on reaching kids before they are suspect of being suicidal.

The idea is to help inform youth about healthy relationships, something Marguerita said Bubbs struggled with and might have contributed to his choice.

The project also aims to look at what indigenous community brings to the process of prevention and how it can be supported.

“A lot of the literature talks about primary prevention in terms of culture, identity and cultural education,” Chan said.

“So we’re relying on that a little bit to see if that’s an approach that will work.”

After the initial research, the second phase of the project will develop “landbased” resilience strategies to help in achieving its aims.

These would include activities like working on the land, fishing, and telling stories through different platforms if community

feedback agrees.

The research group refers to it as an “indigenized” outward-bound approach.

Marguerita has joined the collaborative part of the team as they move toward the final phase of creating the pilot next year.

If successful, the project could be used as a model for other First Nations groups, unique in the circumstances that differentiate them from other groups in Canada.

“Suicide rates among aboriginal people are quite high,” Chan said. “Not only because of individual reasons that kids experience,

but because of the systemic issues that have gone on historically in aboriginal communities.”

These include the impact of generational effects from residential schools and land conflicts and treaties.

Breaking the cycle Both Marguerita and Alain remember a time in their own lives when tradition and a strong family core played a bigger part.

“When I was younger living on Seabird, it was like the world to us,” Alain said.

“We could go to Agassiz but we didn’t reach very far.”

Nowadays, Chilliwack

is easily within range for youth and Vancouver isn’t much further.

“There’s a bigger part of the outside world that’s mixing with our culture,” he added.

When he was young he would go to his great grandmother’s place just outside of Hope to go fishing.

All the branches of his family would meet there in the summers.

“I try to do my best to keep that culture, at least of fishing, alive with my kids and my nieces and nephews but it doesn’t go as far anymore,” he said.

As the Marchands heal from their loss of Bubbs, Marguerita and Alain have resolved to strengthen their

own family and the community as a whole.

“I see the breakdown of what the present day has done to our tradition, and we are working hard to break that cycle,” Alain said.

They see the value in the collaborative pilot project poised to begin at Seabird.

If successful, it could help prevent such high suicide rates for future First Nations generations.

After he passed, Bubbs’ daughter was born at the end of May. “I’ve had another chance to hold him through his little girl,” Marguerita said. ◗ See this story on chilliwacktimes.com for information about World Suicide Prevention Day events in Chilliwack.

Building a strategy In the space of a six month period during 2012 seven Sto:lo youths took their own lives.

When she learned of that startling fact, Leslie Bonshor, Director for Aboriginal Health for Fraser Health decided to take action.

“Something is desperately wrong with our youth and we need to find a way to stop the dying,” she said.

That year, she called together Aboriginal youth care and service providers throughout the region to form the Fraser Region Youth Suicide Prevention, Intervention and Postvention Collaborative (FRC).

Building on that group’s work, Fraser Health, the University of the Fraser Valley (UFV), Seabird Island First Nation and Sto:lo Nation have formed a partnership that has received a $99,000 grant from Canadian Institute for Health Research (CIHR), Pathways to Health Equity for Aboriginal Peoples.

The new collaborative will use the funds to support a project aimed at building a suicide resilience strategy for Fraser Valley First Nations youth, with the pilot set to launch in Seabird Island.

“What we’re going to do in the research process is to work with Sto:lo youth and ask them their opinions,” said Adrienne Chan, lead researcher of project and associate vice-president of research, engagement, and graduate studies at UFV. “And we’re going to work with the elders and the grandmothers and people in that community.

› News { CADIEUX, from page A1 } for the next 15 or more years. As a victim, I believe we always think more time is deserved, but we are bound by what the court decides and at the end of the day, at least they didn’t go without being discovered and charged, for that I am thankful.”

Around 11 p.m. on April 15, 2012, Robertson and her common-law spouse James McIsaac went to sleep in the couple’s Rosedale home.

Then, in the early hours of April 16, as her daughter slept upstairs in her room, Robertson awoke to see a man in a mask and dark clothing standing over her with a weapon of some kind in his raised arm.

What happened next traumatized the couple as McIsaac was beaten, Robertson was threatened with death and they were robbed by three men of approximately $50,000 in jewelry and cash.

Barring an appeal, which is unlikely, the sentencing hearing for Cadieux ends the more than twoyear legal process that began when co-conspirator David Ganaway was arrested, convicted and gave up his partners in crime, Cadieux and Steven Tkachuk.

Ganaway received a sentence of two years less a day and testified against Cadieux and Tkachuk at their 2014 trial. A fourth man who drove the men to the house was never charged.

On Aug. 22, 2014, Joyce sentenced Tkachuk to four years in jail. His lawyer Gurpreet Gill told the court Tkachuk was remorseful, he was duped into the crime thinking he was helping Cadieux pay off a debt, and he didn’t think anyone would be in the house.

IPL Q & A

Joined his father’s criminal gang Crown counsel Grant Lindsey suggested a guilty plea would have displayed actual remorse. And Joyce spurned the other arguments responding that helping someone commit a crime “counts for almost nothing” as a mitigating factor, and suggesting the thieves thought the house was empty made no sense since they wore masks and needed a safe to be opened.

Cadieux was described by all involved, his co-accused and his victims, as the leader and main assailant in the robbery.

After conviction, and because of his criminal record, the Crown sought a long-term offender designation.

Some of Cadieux’s prior convictions recounted by Joyce in court Sept. 2: four for robbery, two uttering threats, 16 break and enter, 11 theft, four possession of the proceeds of crime, one dangerous driving, three for narcotics and 15 breaches.

He was also convicted in 1998 of conspiracy to commit murder when he was in a criminal gang in Quebec.

In that case, he was ordered by the gang to kill someone who supposedly had $200,000 in a safe. He didn’t want to and fled, but was arrested for another theft then convicted of the conspiracy and sentenced to 58 months in jail.

Here in Chilliwack in 2013, Cadieux was sentenced to a year in jail after he tried to steal an ATM from the Shell on Eagle Landing while dressed as a police officer.

In handing down the sentence,

including the long-term offender designation, Joyce found there was a “reasonable possibility” that such a long period of federal parole, which would put Cadieux into his 60s, could be enough to rehabilitate the man.

Cadieux was described by two psychiatrists as a moderate to high risk to reoffend violently. He suffers from substance abuse problems, borderline personality disorder and various other conditions.

In outlining Cadieux’s childhood, Joyce told the court how he struggled in foster care then finally met his father when he was 18. That father was the head of a criminal gang in Quebec, a gang Cadieux would later join.

Cadieux later fathered a child with the daughter of his step-mother who he lived with. A week after he was banished from the home by his father he was shot. Cadieux suspected his father of the attempted murder but he did not co-operate with the investigation.

He later came out to B.C., settled in the Brittania Beach area and his life of crime continued.

After sentencing the man to more than five more years in jail followed by 10 years of court-ordered supervision, Joyce addressed Cadieux directly: “I have imposed a stern sentence. I believe the sentence is justified, but it is not imposed without feeling or compassion.”

Joyce told Cadieux that when things get tough in the years ahead, that he should remain focused on his daughter with whom he wants to retain a relationship.

Q: I have noticed that my skin is looking dull and I even have some sun spots that have appeared. What can I do?

A: Over the years sun damage causes us to have broken capillaries and sun spots which can make us look 10 years older. We have various ways to improve skin texture and tone.

We can start by using a combination of physician grade treatment products which include Vitamin A, hydroquinone and sunblock as well as IPL (Intense Pulsed Light). Usually 3 – 5 treatments are necessary.

If you are interested in a more aggressive treatment we can combine physician grade products, IPL and Fraxel laser – the combination will enhance each others results.

You will need to continue protecting yourself from the sun and use sunblocks, hats and sunglasses to maintain the results.

Military history could be lost

◗ Publisher

C

hilliwack’s past and present is steeped in farming.

Over at the Atchelitz Threshermen’s Association’s pioneer village near Heritage Park that agricultural history is on full show with antique tractors and displays of all kinds connected to agriculture.

Chilliwack also has a rich military history made evident each Nov. 11 when hundreds of veterans, active service personnel and supporters come out to pay respects.

And Chilliwack’s military history is on display at the Canadian Military Education Centre Museum in Canada Education Park.

But as of Monday, that museum will close its doors and, unless a last minute solution is found, all the displays will be dismantled. All that military paraphernalia, memorabilia, weapons, vehicles and uniforms will be dispersed out to its owners where it likely will mostly sit in basements, attics, garages and barns. Out of sight and mind.

That is too bad and we hope that some person or some organization with a piece of property and a building can come to the rescue of the museum.

It wouldn’t just be a shame to lose this place of discovery and learning for people young and old it would be a tragedy. We need to save this museum.

Chilliwack’s history is in there.

f I want to make my daughter laugh in a group of other people I ask her to say “tree” in French.

Her “arbre” with a perfect rolling second “r” is said in a way that puts even her French-Canadian mother to shame.

But the make-her-laugh part comes when she then orders me to say it.

“Say ‘arbre,’” she’ll say with a smile.

I indulge her and either say “arb” or fumble out the pronunciation as if I have mayonnaise-coated marbles in my mouth.

Embarrassing but worth it to get a chuckle out of her. My five-year-old little girl who can pronounce French words near perfectly. OK, like many parents, I may exaggerate my children’s abilities, but there is a reason she can pronounce French so well: She was in the first Kindergarten group of early French immersion students in the Chilliwack school district last year.

She and about 30 of her peers started Grade 1 this week along with a group of Grade 2s and a new batch of Kindergarteners.

French immersion is growing. French immersion is immensely popular.

There were 497 students in French immersion in Chilliwack in the 2014/15 school year accounting for just 3.83 per

PAUL J. HENDERSON @peejayaitch cent of the district, according to BC Ministry of Education statistics.

But those same stats show that over the past six years, overall enrolment in Chilliwack went down by 1,043 students (7.44 per cent) while French immersion enrolment increased by, don’t get excited, 15 students (3.11 per cent).

These numbers come from a Canadian Parents for French, a parent-led organization dedicated to promoting immersion for all. The email I received illustrated the Chilliwack numbers and appeared to be the press release equivalent of a form letter, written broadly then tailored to every community with accompanying statistics.

“We believe French programs are popular in Chilliwack because they are widely recognized by parents as providing young students with the tools and experiences that will enrich their lives and help them prepare for the future,” said Patti Holm, president of Canadian Parents for French (CPF) BC & Yukon in

the missive.

Provincewide the numbers tell a similar story. Total school enrolment in the last decade was down from 599,492 in 2005 to 552,788 last year. But enrolment in French immersion went from 38,008 in 2005 to 50,308 last year.

Since enrolment in Chilliwack increased by just 15 students in the year that early French immersion started, that means enrolment must have actually decreased at the middle school level.

Since the CPF also reports that provincewide dropout from French immersion is highest between Grade 7 and Grade 8, that’s likely the case locally.

The problem in B.C. is a lack of teachers and the CPF urge post-secondary institutions and immigration authorities to address the “serious shortage.”

Beyond the statistics, what’s clear is that interest in French immersion in the province is on the rise.

And there is good reason. Studies have shown that bilingual students perform better on cognitive tests than English-only students.

One theory is that being bilingual means both languages are engaged in a parallel way in the brain at all times, which gives students, everyone really, a cognitive edge.

When a French immersion student or anyone who is bilingual says “tree,” they think “arbre” at the same time (whether they can pronounce it or not).

Twice as much brain activity, in a way.

When the issue of French immersion comes up, some say we should teach Mandarin instead if we want global citizens. But, breaking news, it isn’t always about commerce. Sometimes it’s just about education. Learning to learn.

Learning to think. Also about becoming global citizens if not global consumers and, better yet, better Canadians in a nation where we do indeed have two official languages.

I, myself, did not go through French immersion but I took classes through high school. And I know one expression better than any other: “Je ne parle pas Francais.” That doesn’t serve me particularly well, however, since saying “I don’t speak your language” in that language can be confusing. But if you hear my accent, you’ll understand.

Does it matter if our children learn French? Maybe not. It’s not life or death, but it should be encouraged to help children both cognitively and culturally.

And if an arbre falls in the forest and no one hears me talk about it, mercifully, it doesn’t make a sound.

How many voices does it take to change things? Just our own. If every voter phoned and emailed the politicians about their objection to signs and ads, they would know they have to do something different than mudslinging on television and promoting themselves on signs.

The ability to change election campaigns is in our hands, as the voters. Since this is a long campaign, we have the time to make our democracy responsible to us.

It is time for each of us to storm the campaign offices of our riding candidates, demanding to talk with every candidate face to face. It’s up to us to meet them head on with some basic questions: like, “Show me your record while in office?

Searching for best candidate for your vote is hard work

re we, as the eligible voters, victims of political candidates, leaders and parties in election campaigns?

Do we say that politicians will do anything to get elected, and then forget their election promises?

Do we complain that we are forced to vote for candidates that we describe as, “one is as bad as another?”

If input equals output, do we get the very candidates and leaders that we deserve? Perhaps we as voters only want to label most candidates and leaders as self-serving hucksters that we cannot trust.

Complaining about our politicians does not mean we have done our civic duty. Voters elect the politicians into office. Politicians are not some plague that no one voted into office. We can either vote for who we feel is the best candidate in our opinion, or step up and become a candidate ourselves.

Perhaps we prefer to criticize the person leading, rather than to be the leader, and have people blaming us for the way we lead.

Wondering what to do with Styrofoam?

How often were you present for the sessions of parliament? What will you do in office if elected? Are your loyalties to your party or to those who elect you?”

Now candidate campaign offices have the party faithful and loyal workers, but what is missing is crowds of concerned undecided voters wanting hard answers of the candidates. Why should candidates spend their time giving easy words to the faithful, when it is we the voters who need to discern their qualifications, motives and ambitions if elected?

I believe the candidates have everything to fear if crowds of voters began to show candidates they are in a genuine search for the best candidate for their votes. It will cost us time and effort on our part.

We the voters must let the political candidates and leaders know they are not representing themselves, and that we the voters will decide their fate. ◗ Raymond Maher is a freelance writer and columnist and new resident of Chilliwack. He is retired pastor and public school teacher.

Overcoming fear through faith

BY REG TOEWS Greendale MB Church

T

here is a lot of fear in this world. There are fears about the economy and what it might mean for my job. There are fears of the future—will I have enough money to retire when I want to.

There are fears about being in small spaces. And many other fears that we have labels for.

All of these fears can control us and cause us to have unhealthy responses, which can really mess up our lives. Fears can debilitate us so that we can’t or don’t act in a positive way in handling problems. Many people turn to habitual behaviors, which harm them and the people they love.

Last month I was privileged and honoured to attend a friend’s 14-year cake at an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting. For those who may not know what this means, it recognizes and celebrates 14 years of sobriety.

As my friend shared about their life, one of the major fac-

tors was the desire to be liked and the fear that people didn’t or wouldn’t like them. They had turned to alcohol and other harmful behaviours to cope with the fear of being rejected or disliked.

This person was able to find hope and freedom through the AA groups that they attended and by recognizing that they needed a Higher Power acknowledging that Jesus was their Higher Power.

Fear can bring us to that place of powerlessness where we are stuck in a cycle of poor choices

or where we just can’t seem to move at all. Often we feel powerless to do anything about our fears. We can’t do anything about them and we need help to find a way to overcome our fears.

Jesus informs us that, “I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.” (John 10:10) A full life would be one that is lived without fear but with faith.

This faith must to be placed in One who is greater than I am.

If I only have myself to depend on then I won’t be able to overcome my fears and the behav-

iors that come out of them. I will still stuck in a cycle of fear.

The apostle Paul was a man just like all of us. Even he had fears. He wrote in 1 Corinthians 10:13, “No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it.”

Often we think that we are the only one who are struggling, however that is just not true.

There are many who struggle with the same fears that we have. Putting your faith in a God who is faithful is a positive first step toward success in overcoming our fears. A second step is to find a group of people who recognize that they need a higher power and who are walking the same journey together supporting each other. ◗ Reg Toews is lead pastor at Greendale MB Church.

Five all-candidate meetings now set

Question 5 In the last federal election less than 60 per cent of eligible voters cast a ballot in Chilliwack-Fraser Canyon. This lack of engagement is often coupled with the sentiment that an individual’s vote doesn’t count. How do you as a candidate encourage these eligible voters to engage? And how would you as MP reform or defend our current democratic electoral process?

Thomas Cheney The high level of voter disengagement is a symptom of an electoral system that does not fairly count votes.

In the old Chilliwack-Fraser Canyon riding, 40 per cent of the votes went to parties other than the Conservatives.

These voters have received effectively no representation. To solve this, we need proportional representation.

In terms of engaging non-voters, the squeaky wheel gets the grease.

For example, youth vote in far fewer numbers than seniors. Is it any surprise that post-secondary education has been dramatically cut in contrast to health care? Power belongs to the people who show up.

The second problem is that MPs are increasingly powerless. The real decisions are made by the party leaders. That is why more free votes by MPs are so important. The Green Party believes that an MP’s job is to represent their constituents.

Louis De Jaeger Many Canadians are not on the voters list when they turn 18. We will work with interested provinces and territories, and support Elections Canada to register young Canadians as a part of the school curriculum.

Elections are the cornerstone of representative democracy. I believe it is vital that we make our electoral system more civil and ideas-based, rath-

er than an overly partisan process.

The Conservatives have changed our election laws to make it harder to vote, easier for parties to cheat, and more difficult to catch rule breakers.

As part of a national engagement process, we are committed to ensuring 2015 is the last election conducted under first-past-the-post voting system. Reform measures such as ranked ballots, proportional representation, mandatory voting, and online voting are fully and fairly studied and considered. We will remove the muzzle on the Chief Electoral Officer and ensure Elections Canada has the tools and mandate to encourage more Canadians to vote.

Alexander Johnson I think the idea is that people are comfortable with life—we live a very high quality, comparative to the world. I think that Canadian citizens aren’t interested in politics because they don’t see alternative options.

They are given pizza, which has a lot of variety but is the same food.

Whether it’s pepperoni or ham and pineapple, it’s still pizza. I think we are fed up with this doughy product and we want another choice. It doesn’t mean we will pick it, but we want to hear about soups and fruits and hamburgers. The Libertarian Party is dedicated to removing federal bureaucracy and allowing Canadians from all different corners to work together with municipal and provincial governments to create the kind of society they want to live in. A non-vote is powerful but a vote for a fringe party is greater.

Like the arrival of the Green Party, the more diverse choices we have comes with more ability to hear alternative ideas.

That’s why I’m proud of Tom Mulcair’s commitment to introduce proportional representation in Canada.

As a New Democrat, I’m committed to growing democracy by encouraging voting, consulting with the people, and representing their interests in Ottawa. In contrast, Stephen Harper’s autocratic style muzzles his MPs, while changes to the Elections Act make it harder for some citizens to vote.

Democracy is about more than just voting; it’s about participating in community and engaging the people. Candidates need to inspire voters. I’ve written blogs and letters and addressed organizations.

I’ve been going door-to-door since last December, visiting neighbourhoods throughout Chilliwack-Hope to understand the diverse interests of voters. I consult community groups and their leaders, and I visit schools to encourage students to think about the democratic process at an early age.

Mark Strahl Whether it’s through parents modeling the importance of voting to their children, encouraging our family and friends to vote, or governments providing more voting opportunities and ensuring that voters have all of the information they need to cast a ballot, we all have a role to play in increasing voter turnout.

To encourage more Canadians to vote, our Conservative government brought forward a number of reforms including: an additional advanced voting day and more advertising of basic voting information like where, when and what ID to bring when you vote.

To ensure every British Columbian vote counts, thanks to our government, BC has six additional seats in the House of Commons after this election to more closely represent the province’s share of Canada’s population. Unfortunately, the NDP and Liberals opposed this.

What is the Calcium Paradox?

W hy are so many Canadians plagued by a lack of calcium in their bones (osteoporosis) yet suffer from excess calcium in their arteries (atherosclerosis)?

G

olf is a challenging sport for most people who put on a pair of spikes and shoulder their clubs for Greg Laychak/TIMES

Valerie Beebe with her clubs at Kinkora Golf Course where she does most of her teaching.

He supported his wife emotionally and also suggested she become a golf instructor, at a time when Beebe didn’t have faith in herself.

Certified in figure skating, artistic gymnastics, and almost qualified to coach rhythmic gymnastics (“in a former life”), she had always taught sports but she felt her golf game wasn’t good enough.

Ross convinced her to take the certification course and despite more health complications impeding her exam, Beebe became certified as an associate member of the Canadian Golf Teachers Federation (CGTF).

She taught for over 10 years in that capacity before eventually becoming a fully certified instructor in the CGTF, and now she aims to fulfill her dreams of helping more than the juniors she has consistently worked with over the years.

“My specialty is to work with people who have disabilities,” Beebe says. “Not like my own but those who have mobility issues.”

She has watched, with interest, Garth McCreedy a wheelchair golf-

er who hit a hole-in-one at Chilliwack’s Kinkora Golf Course in May. And Beebe recently returned from the 2015 Canadian Open Blind and Visually Impaired Golf Championships in Creston.

“You’re inspired by people who have less mobility than yourself and I think we feed off each other,” she says. “My junior golfers . . . they see Garth out on the golf course and they see him hit the ball and they’re amazed. They’re inspired by it.”

Beebe sees the potential of golf to help anyone from an elderly individual recovering from a stroke to those who have lost their sight.

Her long term goal is to work with Special Olympics athletes and others with intellectual disabilities.

The fact that her husband builds and modifies golf clubs situates the Beebes to help most aspiring golfers who have challenges.

It’s her sister though, who especially motivates Beebe.

A former skater and marathon runner, Laurie Chatigny also has { See BEEBE, page A14 }

This is known as the “calcium paradox”. Medical research has established the connection between these two health conditions. Vitamin K is a group of vitamins long known for their role in blood clotting. It had always been thought that deficiencies of vitamin K were rare.

Clinical studies however, show that vitamin K deficiency in bone and in blood vessels exists in many healthy adults. At the same time the discovery of vitamin K-dependent proteins in bones, has revealed this vitamin’s most important function,

it has a critical role in the development of bones, and it acts as a regulator of calcium to your tissue.

Vitamin K is essential for strong bones, and it promotes heart health.

Vitamin K guides calcium to areas of the body where it is needed, such as your skeleton, and bones and away from areas where it could have a negative effect, such as the arteries and cardiovascular system.

For most people, diet alone will not help them meet their daily requirement of vitamin K2.

Natural Factors Vitamin K2 is an easy and essential source of this important nutrient.

18 holes.

Valerie Beebe is no stranger to difficulties, and her long path to becoming a certified golf instructor is riddled with obstacles she has had to overcome to achieve her goals.

Next week, as a part of the MS Golf Challenge at the Northview Golf & Country Club in Surrey Beebe will present her story and discuss why it’s important for the community to come together to put an end to multiple sclerosis.

“It’s a life-long journey for me,” says the 56-year-old who was diagnosed with MS when she was 40.

Beebe has also had epilepsy since she was 25 so she has, in her words, “a double-whammy.”

“It seems like all the odds are stacked against me but I don’t see it that way,” she says. “I believe strongly that when one door closes, another one will open. You don’t know when the door will open, you don’t know what door will open, but you’re going to go through it.”

With her life completely in order previous to Beebe’s MS diagnosis, it felt like the rug of reality was completely pulled out from under her.

The door that opened for Beebe was presented by her husband Ross, a golf club builder.

› Sports Brendan Dillon won the First Class Waste Inc. Fraser Valley Open tournament over the weekend in three rounds that saw action on The Falls, Chilliwack and Sandpiper golf courses.

Dillon (68-67-70--205) of the Vancouver Golf Club finished at 10-under for the $3,000 top purse, six strokes better than second place Brayden Eriksen (70-72-69--211) from Pheasant Glen Golf Club. Dillon’s first round eagle at Chilliwack Golf Club and a five-birdie round two at The Falls put him well ahead of the pack from the start

“You have to be inspired because each step she takes is a marathon,” says Valerie.

So she has named her new teaching venture K10 Accessible Golf, after Laurie’s nickname K10.

Like Valerie her sister is hard at work, defying the disease by training hard at a neural gym to convince her brain and body to co-operate again.

“Having a disease—I don’t care what disease it is—you have to learn to be tough,” she says. “You have to be strong, you have to find positives in every negative. I can’t stress that enough.” ◗ On Sept. 14, Valerie joins more than

on their free guided sturgeon fishing trip on the Fraser River courtesy of Wilkens and his Big Valley Sport Fishing business. Cathcart landed a 60-inch sturgeon during the trip. Sign language interpreter Rhys McCormick was on hand to help everyone communicate during the outing. “Catching my first sturgeon was an amazing experience,” said Cathcart through McCormick. “And having an interpreter on the boat made everything smooth. I think that there should be more opportunities like this for deaf people.”

But it’s not just the facilities near the locker room that have changed for the division-winning club at home in Prospera Centre.

Bowen, slated to be an alternate captain, had indicated he was going to stay but went to the Moose Jaw Warriors earlier than expected.

And Potomak also said he would be returning to the Chiefs bench but instead decided that due to injuries he was going to stop playing.

“Those were two really good players, and that happens,” said head coach Jason Tatarnic. “Now it presents opportunity for someone else.”

One of those players, defender Austin Adam, comes from a season with Moose Jaw to join the Chiefs.

Of the eight players the team recruited in mid-May from the Connecticut Wolf Pack, the only one who didn’t make it to Chilliwack was Eric Benshadle who elected to go to the USHL training camp instead.

He is replaced by Tommy Dunleavy, a forward and captain from the USHS’s Brunswick School in Greenwich Connecticut, who led his team in goals and total points last season (25G, 25A, 51TP).

Talking with the rest of the returnees, the captain said there’s still a sore spot from their playoff elimination.

“Especially when we get to that round robin, if we

players, the vets are led by their captain Jordan Kawaguchi.

“A lot of them are older than me which is a bit weird,” said the 18-yearold Abbotsford native.

“But already I feel like they listen to me and we understand each other.”

Everyone on the team is encouraged to speak up if they have something to say so teammates can learn from each other, Kawaguchi said.

“It’s crazy, we’ve been here maybe two weeks

And the rest of the Wolf Pack are already interacting and forming a bond with the rest of the team, according to Tatarnic.

“They all played at different prep schools but then they would come together to play for the split season,” he said. “I think they were all excited to play with each other for a full season, so that was part of the appeal.”

With the five incoming Pack forwards sticking together on two lines, that leaves Zach Giuttari joining the defensive squad and Matteo Esposito in net.

“We purposely went out to add some skill,” Tatarnic said of this season’s recruiting efforts. “But we wanted to be a team that played a little bit more physical, a bit more sandpaper.”

He added that he thinks they’ve accomplished that goal, providing a bit more skill, edge and grit to this year’s Chiefs roster while maintaining their ability to be high-paced and offensive on the ice.

Though Tatarnic said he doesn’t believe a less physical squad last year resulted in their round robin elimination, he said it doesn’t hurt a team to have that edge if they want to go further in the playoffs.

For the six players carrying the memory of a Penticton loss leading to their elimination from the playoffs last season, their first Bauer BCHL Showcase game this year will give them an opportunity to exact revenge.

This season promises to be a challenge in their own Mainland division as well, Tatarnic said.

The newest BCHL team, the Wenatchee Wild displayed what they had to offer last Friday for the 2015/16 season. They were the only team to beat the Chiefs in exhibition play (4-0).

And even Surrey, a team that only won nine games last season has made considerable improvements this year, ma k i n g Ma i n l a n d “a tough division.”

So that makes the returning six Chiefs all the more valuable.

“They’ve been through it,” Tatarnic said. “They know what we expect a s c o a c h e s a n d h ow we practise and how we play.” Taking on the responsibility of communicating the nuances of the Chiefs to incoming

Organic collection coming KELMOR B.C. Licenced Home A

n audit conducted five years ago found that 43.5 per cent of the contents of the waste picked up by City of Chilliwack garbage crews is food matter.

And since a further 2.4 per cent was yard waste and 12.5 per cent recyclables, that means just 41.6 per cent of garbage collected is actually garbage.

A bit of a laggard in the Lower Mainland and across Canada, the city is finally set to start curbside organic material collection, but not until 2017 and only at single family homes.

The program, long touted by many local residents, has multiple benefits, including less odour generation, attractants for wildlife and greenhouse gases.

City council received a report from staff at its last meeting, after which Coun. Jason Lum asked if there was not a way to move up organic waste diversion sooner.

“Everybody I talk to is surprised that we are not already removing organics from our curbside,” Lum

said.

Indeed, Abbotsford, Langley, Surrey and all of Metro Vancouver have organic waste pickup programs in place. Toronto established its green bin program, which includes apartments and townhouses, in 2002.

Manager of environmental services Tara Friesen told Lum it would be hard to speed things up because the city does not yet have a facility set to take the material. There is also the fact that the current contract is set to end in 2017, with a new contract to start May 1, 2017.

The organics collection program will mean slightly higher costs to residents, but just how high will depend on a number of factors: will the city use manual collection or an automated system; will collection be weekly or bi-weekly for recycling and residual garbage.

Friesen said residents currently pay $16.04 per month for garbage and recycling collection, or $25.55 for garbage, recycling and yard trimmings. There will, however, be efficiencies realized as yard trimmings will become part of a stan-

dard service along with the organics collection.

To compare, Abbotsford residents pay $18.33 per month for garbage, recycling and organics collection.

This includes weekly organics and recycling collection, and bi-weekly garbage pickup using a manual crew.

The city is hosting a consultation meeting and public outreach to give information and receive feedback on the options the city has to consider.

On Sept. 12 the city will have an information booth at the Cottonwood Mall from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. A townhall meeting is scheduled for Sept. 17 from 7 to 9 p.m. at Sardis Library. There will also be booths at the Terry Fox Run on Sept. 20 from 7:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., and on BC Rivers Day Adopt a River Cleanup at the Chilliwack Fish and Game Club on Sept. 27 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Full detail on the program are available at www.chilliwack.com/ organics and there is a survey residents can fill out with the chance to win an iPad.

same deeply rooted trunk.

Despite its humble homemade origins, One World begins another chapter in the quest of this multi-tasking artist, composer and producer. To create the disc’s emotive melodies, fluid grooves and rich sonic tapestries, Cook incorporated technology more than ever before. The result is a perfect meshing of the personal hybridized stylings of Jesse himself with modern instruments in a modern context.

Cook’s vast and varied catalogue has earned 11 Juno nominations including three in 2001 of which he was awarded Best Instrumental Album for 2000’s Free Fall. To date, five of eight albums have earned Gold Record status and two others Platinum.

or Jesse Cook, music has been a journey, both sonically and literally.

After two decades of crisscrossing the world in his restless pursuit of inspiration, innovation and collaboration, this virtuoso changed course for his ninth studio album One World.

Rather than exotic locales, he stayed home in his studio.

Rather than a foreign legion of performers, he relied on his own devices. And rather than exploring myriad cul-de-sacs of music he united them. The album pivots between worlds—past and future, familiar and fresh, acoustic and electronic—redefined by technology just like every element of modern life.

The album cover, depicting a vast, ancient tree, personifies the content. We are all part of just one world and all music represents branches of a tree all joined to the

CHILLIWACK TIMES

Thursday, September 10, 2015 A25

› Showtime

ozzini’s welcomes multiaward winning musician David Gogo and David Roy Parsons to their stage Sept. 18.

Gogo’s groove-fueled blend of blues and rock is the basis for a singular and storied music career. His songs have been featured in film and television and are regularly played on blues radio programs the world over.

He has earned numerous Canadian blues accolades, including five JUNO nominations, a Western Canadian Music Award, a CBC Saturday Night Blues Award, and multiple Maple Blues Awards. He has 30 years of performing and hundreds of thousands of tour miles under his belt.

Gogo has played on stage with Johnny Winter, B.B. King, Otis Rush, Albert Collins and Bo Diddley. He has opened for George Thorogood, ZZ Top, The Tragically Hip, Buddy Guy, Charles Bradley, Robert Cray, and Jimmy Vaughan among many others. Gogo can swap road stories for as long as you can listen.

Vicksburg Call is Gogo’s 14th release and is poised to add even more acclaim to his already impressive inventory. Undoubtedly a rockin’ blues album, it was recorded at Rick Salt’s brand new studio in Gogo’s hometown of Nanaimo.

Gogo has recorded several albums with Salt, and the new studio has a live, intimate atmosphere, which yielded an overall grittier sound with lots of feeling. The new album also has more of a “band feel” to it than previous albums, making the songs

Scott Doubt photo

David Gogo, along with fellow muscian David Roy Parsons, plays Bozzini’s Sept. 18. feel more like the live show.

Additionally, Gogo was inspired to make use of a wider range of guitars from his extensive collection and experimented with his newly acquired Gibson Les Paul and a Martin D35 that had him playing and writing outside of his usual approach.

Known as a savvy interpreter, Gogo uses his sophisticated ear to select cover songs that complement his originals. On Vicksburg Call Gogo imparts his unique take on Neil Young’s “The Loner,” Stephen Stills’ “Jet Set (Sigh),” and Annie Lennox’s “Why,” with the help of his great

backing band, featuring Bill Hicks on drums and Jay Stevens on bass.

“There’s A Hole” features heartfelt harmonica playing from The Harpoonist and The Axe Murderer’s Shawn Hall and a Gogo original, “Fooling Myself,” gets an extra boost from Savoy Brown founder Kim Simmonds.

David Roy Parsons (the Roy is to avoid confusion with the various other David Parsons—you’d be surprised) is a singer, a songwriter and an all round interesting human being. Born in 1971 and mainly raised in Ottawa, he is now getting ready to depart after a dozen years in Vancouver to dwell in Nelson.

With four CDs to his credit, he is not only one of the more interesting writers on the current Vancouver neo-folk songwriting scene but also a man with an uncommon story to tell; a story that is only abstractly revealed in his songs. Parsons was born with hemophilia, his blood lacks Factor 8, a clotting agent. This means that from infancy he has had painful hemorrhages, one of which, at the age of five, was a brain hemorrhage.

He went from being right handed to left handed. He also walks and talks with a wobble. It gives him a different perspective from most performers on what makes a successful show.

“When I go through a show without dropping my pick I think it is a brilliant show,” he says. ◗ Tickets are $15 at Bozzini’s or call 604-792-0744 to reserve. Show at 9:30 p.m. with doors open at 8 p.m.

Edel plays Acoustic Emporium

Victoria’s Mike Edel plays the Acoustic Emporium Sept. 11. Doors open at 7 p.m. with tickets costing $10. Edel’s sophmore release, entitled India/Seattle, feels like a story on it’s own. Part of growing a little bit older, a little bit wiser is the awareness that comes inside growing spaces. Nearing thirty, on the exhaust of a brutal four year touring schedule, Edel settled inside these spaces to create his finest work yet.

There’s a quiet here, even in the literal spaces in the record that speak loudly.

OBITUARIES

Mary Froese went quietly into the arms of her precious Jesus on August 26, 2015 at Cascade Hospice, Chilliwack at the age of 88.

Mary, our Grandma Honey, your Auntie Mary, was born February 3, 1927, in Drake Saskatchewan. That same year the family moved to Dunrae, Manitoba where they lived for 12 years. In 1939 Mary’s family; parents, Henry and Katharina Ratzlaff along with siblings Hank, Anne, Jake, Peter, Tina, Lydia and Ernie, moved to Yarrow BC. In December 1942 Grandma Honey married Grandpa Eddie (A.J. ‘Ed’) Froese. Together they had one son Harold “Cactus” Froese.

Throughout her adult life Auntie Mary served others; volunteering at Red Cross, helping refugees, and teaching Sunday School for 50+ years at Chilliwack Alliance Church. Mary worked first at Cascade Foods in Yarrow, then Clearbrook Frozen Foods and finally at P & E Builders in Chilliwack. She had many adventures with Ed and “Young Street Vocal Band”, singing on radio and in the church choir. She loved her prayer groups, her beautiful yard and her very precious neighbors, family and friends. Grandma Honey cherished her many trips to California to see her family – especially her five great grandsons. Mary’s greatest legacy is that she was a prayer warrior, always remembering her family, friends and those in need.

Mary Froese (Grandma Honey, Auntie Mary) is lovingly remembered by her son Harold Froese and his wife Claudia; grandchildren Stacy Froese Borchardt and her sons Drew, Mitch and Luke Borchardt and Leslie Froese Loewen, husband Scott and their sons Evan and Max Loewen; her siblings and their families and her many friends she thought of as her “adopted” family, both here and in California. Mary was predeceased by her husband A.J. “Ed” Froese and brothers Jake and Hank Ratzlaff.

A Celebration of Life Service will be held at 11:00 am on Friday, September 18, 2015 at Chilliwack Alliance Church, 8700 Young Rd, Chilliwack.

The family extends a special “Thank You” to the very special staff at Cascade Hospice for their gentle care and compassion. Memorial donations may be made in Mary’s name to Chilliwack Alliance Church designated to Children’s Ministries.

Online condolences may be offered at www.woodlawn-mtcheam.ca
