there are huge benefits to having a long-term family doctor, particularly for the elderly, or people with chronic health issues. Family doctors can help provide better outcomes for patients, with lower costs to the health care system.

However, he said the number of doctors accepting new patients “shifts on a week-by-week basis.”

The College of Physicians and Surgeons of B.C. has an online search engine to find doctors who are taking new patients. Sidorak said at one point she was given an information sheet which pointed her to the website.

A search turned up the names of four physicians, but as Sidorak called, she was repeatedly told those doctors weren’t accepting patients. Zajcew said the site is “well-intentioned, but unfortunately, it is not kept current.” There is no organi-

fter multiple attempts to see a doctor to deal with the blisters forming under the cast on her six-yearold daughter’s arm, Julie Sidorak ended up using a clean sock and baby powder to try to fix the problem herself. She would have preferred to consult a professional, but staff at the emergency room where the cast was applied said she would have to go to her family doctor. That’s a major problem though, because almost a year after moving to Abbotsford from Calgary and looking for a family doctor, Sidorak still can’t find one.

ER staff suggested she go to a walk-in clinic, noting one which is equipped to deal with casts. Sidorak called. Despite an opening time of 9 a.m., she was told there was no doctor until after 1 p.m. That afternoon, she headed to the clinic with her family.

When they arrived, there was a note posted on the door. “Closed due to a lack of doctors.”

■■■■ Sidorak is far from unique in her search for a physician. About one in five people in Abbotsford do not have a family doctor. Five years ago, the former health minister promised that everyone in B.C. needing a family doctor would have one by 2015. In 2013, the government, in partnership with Doctors of BC, expanded a pilot program called A GP For Me province-wide, in order to try and make that a reality.

A GP For Me is designed to increase the capacity of the primary health care system, through efforts established by the local division of family practice, specifically geared to that community.

One of the main stated goals is to connect every patients who wants a family doctor, with one. In April of this year, Health Minister ALEX BUTLER Abbotsford News Terry Lake said in the legislature that while 20 per cent of Albertans Julie Sidorak is among 5,000 to 6,000 people in Abbotsford who are having or recently had a and 25 per cent of Quebecers don’t difficult time finding a family doctor. have a family doctor, that number is only 16 per cent in B.C., adding zation charged with the role of connecting patients and docthat the A GP for Me program has made significant strides. tors, which is why the Abbotsford Division of Family Practice The Abbotsford Division of Family Practice, a non-profit hopes to create such a system.

decided to stay. The same program that brought him to the community is a great recruitment tool for other young doctors, he said, as it creates “net-new” doctors, says Zajcew, meaning it doesn’t take a doctor out of another community to fill a vacancy here. With more doctors set to retire, Boparai said there needs to be more succession planning.

“Really, we need to have new doctors to take over practices – and there is a shortage of new doctors to do that.”

In addition to med school grads, Zajcew said they need to work more proactively with doctors who have some interest in relocating to Abbotsford. Zajcew said there are expressions of interest provincially, nationally and internationally, and “we feel we can do a better job of landing those.

“To keep our heads above water, we need to be recruiting about five to six physicians a year,” said Zajcew.

The remainder involves filling out paperwork, forms, and completing other administrative duties. Looking for efficiencies is one way of addressing the pressure on a GP’s time.

However, Cavers said what that report overlooked was the aging demographic of baby boomers. Now, age-related issues have hit patients who increasingly need treatment for chronic illnesses at the same time that doctors are slowing down as they near retirement.

More young doctors now have spouses who also have careers, and doctors are not working the same number of hours, and therefore are not putting in the same number of work years in return for their training. The younger generation is “more interested in having a better work/life balance,” and not working 60hour weeks like older doctors Dr. Bill Cavers, past-president of the Doctors of did, he suggestBC, notes significant changes in factors creating ed.

OF THE WEEK

Teen lured to hotel

Would you be in favour of a coalition government?

I swear to god....this kind of stuff is taking over the news. It’s sickening. Maybe one day we’ll all live in a world where we can open our newsfeed or go outside and not read/worry about pedophiles taking over our city. It’s revolting.

YES: 40 % NO: 60 %

Urban society slides into helplessness Tom Fletcher

B.C. Views Of all the immature, ignorant whining that came out of the recent power failure in the Lower Mainland, one example summed up the decline of our urban culture for me.

It wasn’t the people who flooded 9-1-1 with calls demanding to know when their power would be restored, or complaining about their freezers. It wasn’t those on Twitter insisting BC Hydro pay for food that went bad.

It was another social media moment.

With part of his community without electricity for a third day, Coquitlam Mayor Richard Stewart went to his Facebook page, which has a wide following.

There he pleaded with residents to stop phoning city hall to demand that a local big-box supermarket provide milk and eggs. Power had been restored at the store only a few hours before, in the dead of night, and it’s safe to assume that all stores were working flat out to restock

perishables.

Where do people get the notion that city hall, or whatever all-powerful nanny state they imagine, controls grocery stores?

How do they conclude that in the midst of the worst electrical grid failure on record, BC Hydro is going to address their personal situation above all others?

Vancouver broadcast media weren’t much better. Their big focus was that BC Hydro’s website crashed, so people couldn’t call it up on their smartphones and find out instantly when their power would be back on.

Some even questioned why wireless power meters didn’t help. Perhaps these were the same journalists who fed the tinfoil-hat superstition about their signals.

The facts should be known by now.

After an extremely dry spring and summer, a high wind shattered trees and took down more wires and poles than BC Hydro had ever coped with before. Further damage was done within areas that were already blacked out, leaving overtaxed technicians unable to accurately assess the full extent of it.

In Coquitlam and elsewhere, poles were down in areas too rain-saturated for heavy

repair trucks to reach. Yes, there were some too-optimistic repair estimates given out, in response to the constant screeching for instant answers.

About 15 years ago I experienced my worst power outage in the Fraser Valley.

In a semi-rural area with little backup

Where do people get the notion that city hall, or whatever all-powerful nanny state they imagine, controls grocery stores?

grid capacity (since greatly improved), my family went three days without power.

This was in winter, due to wind and freezing rain followed by snow and cold.

Trickles of water kept pipes from freezing, and the gas stove provided a bit of heat.

I heard no complaints about the crews struggling around the clock with the dangerous job of repair. Media coverage was mostly adult supervised.

Megastorm madness isn’t an isolated case.

A couple of weeks before that, a temporary construction bump on the Lion’s Gate Bridge deck caused panic and rage.

Aggravated by a couple of accidents on the alternate route, and fed by hysterical media, drivers of West Van luxury cars were white-knuckled.

Traffic choked the region that recently declined to pay a bit more for road improvements. In both cases, people outside Lotus Land were muttering: Welcome to our world.

This is pertinent to the federal election.

Are you competent to save for your retirement with RRSPs and a tax-free savings account, or do you need the government to do it for you, by force?

Are you capable of managing your own child care, or should the nanny state create a hugely subsidized system, which has already failed in Quebec, from coast to coast?

Are you ready for the day when the machine stops?

Sounds ‘just not ready’ I received Jati Sidhu’s campaign flyer in the mail today. What a textbook exercise in muddled thinking!

He attempts to list six points where the “Harper Plan Has Failed.” I noticed his first knock on Harper—“A New Recession” is essentially the same reason (but in different words) as his fourth point, “Rising Unemployment.” To make matters worse, he has to bend the facts to support his position. He quotes the June unemployment report – in September. Why not the most recent August one? Because unlike June when the economy lost 6,500 jobs, August showed Canada had gained 12,000 jobs. Oh, and by the way, those gains were of 54,000 full-time jobs versus a loss of 42,000 part-time jobs. So a 12,000 gain is massively understating the case.

Jati then makes another point which, again, he conveniently counts twice. Harper “Can’t Balance the Budget” and Canada has “Skyrocketing Debt.” The only way to get into debt is to run an unbalanced budget. The problem here is that some voters like myself actually remember the political climate in Canada in the months leading up to the global financial crisis of 2008. Harper was then planning not to run deficits but had to under threat of a Liberal and NDP coalition to throw him out to do just that. So the deficits can be laid at the feet of the Liberals, not the Conservatives. Go on Google and look it up yourself.

Finally we come to my two favourite, utterly contradictory points: “Using Children for Politics” (…like Justin Trudeau would never do that!) and “Working for the Rich.” In the former we’re told that because the Conservative’s childcare benefit is taxable, those in high tax brackets will be “giving a lot” of it back. But in the very next point we’re told that “Stephen Harper’s priority is a $2-billion tax break for the rich.”

So, let me get this straight: Harper’s bad because the rich will have to pay taxes … and he’s also bad because they won’t pay taxes. It’s truly hard to argue with that logic.

Sounds “just not ready” to me.

Local organizations mobilize for refugee crisis Tyler Olsen Abbotsford News

As refugees continue to flee their homelands in numbers not seen since the Second World War, Abbotsford Community Services (ACS) and Mennonite Central Committee (MCC) are gearing up to provide whatever help is needed to settle those who may come to Canada in the coming months.

The global refugee crisis – in which millions of people displaced by fighting in Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya and elsewhere – has made headlines in recent weeks. Spurred in large part by a horrifying photo showing a toddler who died during an attempted sea crossing, federal political parties have indicated a desire to expedite the arrival of refugees in Canada.

On Tuesday, Premier Christy Clark announced the province would provide $1 million to help settle refu-

Refugees and migrants, packed aboard a fishing boat in the hope of reaching Submitted Europe, are pictured moments before being rescued by the Italian navy. gees in B.C.. That money would be distributed to local organizations like ACS, which already provides services and assistance to around 50 refugees in the city.

ACS community connections co-ordinator Andrea Dykshoorn said staff members have al-

ready fielded inquiries by locals inquiring about sponsoring or helping refugees who might be coming to Abbotsford.

Manpreet Grewal, ACS’s director of multicultural and immigrant integration services, said the organization is already planning for

language services that would be needed by newly arriving refugees.

“We will build our capacity,” she said. “Once we have the idea of the number of people that we’re going to receive, then it will be more formalized.”

‘This crosses belief or faith lines’ The organization will draw on experience learned from helping dozens of Kosovar refugees settle in the area in the late 1990s. A total of 71 people came to Abbotsford at that time, with most remaining in the area afterwards, and others following them in subsequent years.

Meanwhile, the Mennonite Central Committee is in the midst of its largest response in its history, and has spent $31 million in the last year and a half to help refugees around the globe.

And as that work continues in those areas of the world where people are fleeing to and from, the organization is also asking its members to open both their wallets and their doors.

“Assisting refugees either here in Canada, settling them, or assisting them in place is core to what MCC does,” said Ron Ratzlaff, the organization’s interim communications director.

The organization focuses its efforts in areas around the world where it has a long-established presence on the ground. Here in Abbotsford, where it has its B.C. headquarters, staff work to provide support and find sponsors for those refugees on approved lists to move to Canada.

Last week, the organization sent out an urgent appeal to member churches asking members to pray and consider donating or sponsoring refugees.

Jennifer Mpungu, MCC’s refugee assistance program co-ordinator, said she has already had numerous inquiries from locals hoping to help.

“We have had extraordinary support from people calling me, writing emails,” she said.

She noted that the need to help refugees around the world is nothing new, despite the recent in-

crease in media attention. The current crisis has been building for years, and Mpungu and Ratzlaff hope the issue remains at the fore of people’s minds, even if media coverage subsides.

“My hope is that now there has been all this support … that people realize that it is not only Syria,” she said, noting there are already refugees in need of sponsors from several other countries. “This tragedy should not be in vain.”

ACS and MCC will be working together, and with other local organizations, to line up sponsors.

Churches have already shown an interest, but the issue cuts across faith and cultural lines.

“This is not limited to our traditional contituency,” Ratzlaff said.

“This crosses belief or faith lines. You’ve got various kinds of interfaith groups looking to assist and we’re more than happy to work with them.”

Refugees overseas can be sponsored in Canada either by the federal government or, as has been the trend in recent years, by private organizations and groups. While those can be religious or community organizations like MCC or ACS, individuals can form their own groups of as few as five people. Sponsors are asked to support refugees, financially and otherwise, for their first year in Canada.

Those looking to help, can donate money to MCC’s efforts at MCCCanada.ca. For information about sponsoring or providing other assistance to refugees, contact Mpungu at 604-850-6639 or jennifermpungu@mccbc.ca. S Staff at ACS can also answer questions about assistance; contact Andrea Dykshoorn, at 604-2173055, or Dardane Shushka, at 604-859-7681, extension 237.

Board reduces costs after ‘disappointing year’ Vikki Hopes Abbotsford News

The board of Abbotsford Agrifair announced Wednesday that it has not renewed the contract of general manager Pamela Brenner.

President Ernie Silveri thanked Brenner, who first became the GM in 2007, for her “many years of loyalty” to the association.

“She is an amazing person and an outstanding administrator,” he said.

Silveri said the “difficult decision” was made in order to reduce expenses – Brenner’s salary is about $68,000 – after Agifair, which ran from July 31 to Aug. 3, experienced “anoth-

er disappointing year” due to extreme weather conditions.

He said the event has experienced severe heat the last three years that has impacted attendance, which tallied 41,553 in 2013, 37,276 in 2014, and 35,883 this year.

Silveri said he didn’t yet know the financial deficit for this year’s fair, but expects to have that figure in the next day or two.

Each year from 2011 to 2014, Agrifair has received a $90,000 grant from the city, and Silveri said the board will ask for the same amount later this year.

In 2011, the fair ended with a deficit of $25,000, but almost

broke even the following year, when it lost about $7,000.

In 2013, the fair recorded an $11,000 profit, but was again in the red last year, when its losses amounted to almost $16,000.

Silveri said the board of directors is “regrouping and restructuring” in time to have the year-end financials completed and presented to its membership at the association’s annual general meeting in early November.

“Following this, the newly elected board of directors will begin the process of reshaping the 100-plus-year-old community event and ensuring Agrifair’s future,” Silveri added.

Drug bust results in charges Police say suspect involved in ongoing Townline Hill conflict Vikki Hopes Abbotsford News

A man who police say is involved in the ongoing Townline Hill conflict in west Abbotsford is facing a series of drug charges.

Vishal Bajaj, 26, was arrested at a residence in the 30700 block of Sandpiper Drive at about 8 p.m.

on Tuesday after the Abbotsford Police emergency response team, with the gang and drug unit, executed a search warrant.

Const.

Ian MacDonald said officers seized cash, cocaine, crack cocaine, heroin and methamphetamine from the home.

Bajaj has since been charged with three counts of possession for the purpose of trafficking (cocaine, heroin and meth).

He is also still before the courts for identical charges from May 13, when he was arrested in a vehicle in the area of Upper Maclure Road and Mallard Street.

Report concluded on fatal December longboard collision

A second man, Iqbal Kular, was also charged with three counts of possession for the purpose of trafficking in relation to that incident.

Bajaj is now under court-ordered conditions that require he adhere to a curfew from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m.

He is also prohibited from possessing weapons, alcohol, drugs and cellphones.

He is next scheduled to appear in Abbotsford provincial court on Oct. 8 on both sets of drug charges.

Police encourage anyone who sees Bajaj breaching his conditions to call them at 604-859-5225 or text abbypd (222973).

MacDonald said police had previously identified Bajaj as an individual involved in the Townline Hill conflict, which has involved two groups of young men, and he was specifically targeted by the gang and drug unit.

The conflict first began with dozens of incidents of mischief, assault, vandalism and assault but has escalated to include several shootings.

Last Wednesday, innocent victim Ping Shun Ao, 74, was killed when he was struck by a stray bullet intended for the next-door neighbours’ car and home on Promontory Court.

The area on Sandpiper Drive where Bajaj was arrested on Tuesday was also the scene of a shooting on Aug. 17, although MacDonald wouldn’t confirm whether the shots were fired at that particular residence.

In that incident, residents reported hearing shots, and police arrived to find several shell casings on the road. Officers soon discovered that a 23-yearold man had shown up in hospital with a gunshot wound to his leg.

That shooting came just 11 days after another one that had occurred in the 30500 block of Sandpiper Drive. No one was injured in that incident,

but a 2013 Volkswagen parked in a driveway had been struck by several bullets.

MacDonald said the violence on Sandpiper Drive prompted police to recently hold a meeting with about 60 residents.

He said many of them expressed concerns about troubling behaviour they had seen – such as groups of young men gathering and drug dealing – but they had not reported it, thinking that the incidents were minor and they would be bothering police.

MacDonald said the citizens were encouraged to report any and all such matters.

IIO says officer might have committed MVA offence Vikki Hopes Abbotsford News

The Independent Investigations Office (IIO) has determined that an off-duty Abbotsford Police officer may have committed an offence under the Motor Vehicle Act when he was involved in a collision that killed a 14-year-old longboarder last December.

The IIO announced yesterday that it has completed its investigation into the incident and has made a report to the Criminal Justice Branch (CJB).

The collision that resulted in the death of Marcus Larabie took place at about 6:15 p.m. on Dec. 26, 2014 in the intersection of Bourquin Crescent West and Mill Lake Road, near the Bourquin bus exchange.

The IIO has concluded that Marcus was riding a longboard or skateboard westbound when he was struck by a southbound 2009 Mazda 3 driven by an off-duty officer who had just finished a shift and had a green light at the time.

The teen was airlifted to hospital, where he died just before midnight.

The IIO, which investigates matters involving officer-related incidents of

death or serious harm, determined that alcohol was not a factor in the collision.

The IIO has spent the last several months gathering information, including interviewing witnesses and securing evidence and video footage.

Abbotsford Police Department (APD) collision reconstructionists also performed numerous tests and calculations based on evidence obtained at the scene.

The IIO’s acting chief civilian director has now forwarded the file to the CJB, indicating that it is believed the officer might have committed an offence under the Motor Vehicle Act. It is now up to Crown counsel to determine what, if any, charges should be laid, taking into consideration whether there is a “substantial likelihood of conviction” and whether a prosecution is in the public’s best interest.

Depending on the infraction, the officer could receive a ticket or fine or face no repercussions.

The IIO emphasizes that its threshold to refer this case to the CJB is lower than it would be for other law enforcement agencies.

Man charged after hotel stay with 13-year-old A man from Newport News, Va., has been arrested and charged after renting a hotel room in Abbotsford and staying overnight there with a 13-yearold girl.

Abbotsford Police

Const. Ian MacDonald said the teen and the man first met over social media in July of this year.

He said the two exchanged numerous texts and began a “very concerning but distant

relationship.”

MacDonald said the man suggested the pair meet in person and on Sept. 5 he travelled to Seattle and then to Abbotsford, where he rented a hotel room.

Abbotsford Homeowners Want to Know The Value of Their Home, But Are Afraid to Ask! Abbotsford – A hassle-free service allows homeowners to receive up to date real estate market information speciÀc to their home without having to meet with a real estate agent.

Some homeowners are reluctant to meet with a realtor as they may only be in the early stages of planning a move or may not yet know if they will move. “Should we sell or stay? How much equity do we actually have?” Often these questions cannot be answered without knowing the current value of your home.

Determining the value of your home is based largely on comparing your home to similar homes that have recently sold.

This comparative approach should consider several factors – features of each home, location, neighbourhood, length of time on the market, etc. However, access to this type of information is generally re-

served for the real estate agents and their clients.

This free service provides each homeowner with a Real Estate Market Update speciÀc to their property. This update includes detailed sales information of similar homes that have recently sold within the homeowner’s area, as well as the current listings. This data includes a photograph of each home, asking prices and selling prices, the number of days on the market, price reductions and a complete description of each home.

To have a free Market Update sent to you, specially tailored for your home, call this 24 hour free recorded message at 1-800-251-4944, enter extension #4811.

This hassle free, no obligation service is provided by Rod Poole of Landmark Realty Corp. You may also call Rod’s ofÀce directly at 604-309-6068.

girl met with the man, and the two stayed overnight in the hotel.

The teen left the next morning and contacted her guardian, who then notified the Abbotsford Police Department (APD).

Officers arrested the man outside the hotel on Sunday, Sept. 6.

Joshua Michael Napoli, 33, has been charged w i t h sexual assault against a child, child NAPOLI luring a n d sexual interference.

MacDonald said the incident serves as a reminder for all parents to be aware of their children’s online activities and to be familiar with their kids’ friends and whereabouts at all times.

Napoli has been remanded in custody.

Cukes recalled from stores Unwrapped field cucumbers are being recalled by major B.C. grocery outlets due to possible salmonella contamination.

Safeway recalled its bulk-sold field cucumbers Sunday, along with in-store products bought on or before Sept. 6 that contained them, such as salads, vegetable trays, sushi and sandwiches.

That recall was expanded Tuesday to include field cucumbers sold in or before Sept.

4 by the Overwaitea Food Group through its Save On Foods, PriceSmart, Coopers Foods, Overwaitea and Freson Brothers outlets.

There are no known cases of illness in Canada, according to the Canadian Food Inspection Agency.

The Canadian recalls came in response to a recall by a California producer and may be linked to an outbreak in the U.S., the CFIA said.

Recalled products are to be thrown out or returned to the store.

S a l m o n e l l a contaminated food may not look or smell spoiled but can still make people sick.

Young children, pregnant women, the elderly and people with weakened immune systems may contract serious and sometimes deadly infections.

Healthy people may get short-term symptoms such as fever, headache, vomiting, nausea, abdominal cramps and diarrhea.

Education grant available Families have three years, or until the child’s ninth birthday, to apply Parents are being reminded about a provincial grant for post-secondary education and training.

To be eligible for the $1,200, children must be born in 2007 or later.

Families have three years, or until the day

before the child’s ninth birthday, to submit an application for the grant.

In Abbotsford, parents can go into Coast Capital

Savings Credit Union, Envision Financial, Khalsa Credit Union and Prospera Credit Union to kick-start their savings

for their children’s future.

No matching or additional contributions are required to access the $1,200. Even a small amount of savings in an RESP increases the likelihood that a child will continue their studies after high school.

“Starting at a young age, children can watch their education savings grow,” Abbotsford-South MLA Darryl Plecas said.

“This grant will make sure kids have access to the training and education they need to take advantage of B.C.’s strong economy. “ With the $1,200 grant and an investment of $50 a month, savings could grow to $12,000 (based on a 3.5 per cent annual growth rate).

Growth of funds will depend on the amount invested and actual returns.

The one-time grant of $1,200 per eligible child will be deposited into a Registered Education Savings Plan (RESP) upon approval of the application.

The local event takes place Saturday, Sept. 12 from 10 a.m. to noon at Mill Lake Park near the water park.

The purpose is to bring attention to “the need for respectful care in childbirth,” organizers say.

The event is being hosted by the Improving Birth organization, which serves as an advocacy group to support mothers in accessing the “highest quality information about their care, and in helping them to find providers who practice evidence-based, respectful care,” according to its website.

Balzer flying high with Surrey Eagles MEI grad set to call his first BCHL game in Surrey on Friday Ben Lypka Abbotsford News

It might be hockey night in Surrey but it’ll have a lot of Abbotsford flavour.

Aspiring broadcast journalist Kyle Balzer signed on the dotted line to be the new play-by-play broadcaster of the BCHL’s Surrey Eagles earlier this summer and he’s ready for Friday’s start of the season after a wealth of experience covering Abbotsford sports.

The 2010 MEI grad had been told for years that he had a voice for radio and shortly after graduating he acted upon it.

“I guess you could say I’ve always liked having a microphone in front of me,” he said. “Once I realized that I still wanted to be involved in sports because I didn’t make a lot of teams, I knew that I could use this skill I discovered and apply it to a career in broadcasting.”

Balzer took several media and communications courses at UFV and eventually hooked up with the Cascade student newspaper and the campus radio station. His work achieved high praise, as he won the 2014 National Campus and Community Radio Association Award for Best Sports Program with co-hosts Aaron Levy and Tyler Dyck.

“UFV as a whole helped me learn how to work in the business aspect of sports broadcasting,” he said. “I recommend UFV for everyone because they do provide the same opportunities as any other big-name school would offer.”

He also scored a position as communications intern for the Abbotsford Heat in 2013. He worked alongside the team’s play-by-play broadcaster compiling stat packages,

I guess you could say I’ve always liked having a mic in front of me Balzer

Submitted photo

Abbotsford’s Kyle Balzer rocks the mic during his time as a communications intern with the Abbotsford Heat in 2013. He starts as the Surrey Eagles’ play-by-play man on Friday

crafting media releases and helping out on game day.

“The greatest lesson I learned with the Heat is to take any opportunity that comes my way and to make it my own,” he said.

Balzer graduates from the broadcast and online journalism program at BCIT next June, and said the commute from Abbotsford to Burnaby is long but it’s been worth it.

“BCIT has certainly provided a lot of opportunity for me to improve and expand my horizons as a broadcast journalist,” he said. “It doesn’t matter what program you’re in; the school allows everyone to apply their skills and their talents to a real-world scenario.”

His new role with the Eagles sees him cover every home game in South Surrey, with the potential to follow the team on the road if his schedule allows it.

“I’m very excited to call my first-ever BCHL season with one of the most recognized franchises in the league,” he said. “Knowing that I could be calling players that could play in college or the NHL one of these days is incredible. I’m still trying to let it sink in, but once I put on that headset, I’ll definitely be ready to be the best that I can be.”

Local hockey fans might recognize Balzer from his time as the PA announcer for the Abbotsford Pilots.

His brother Joel Balzer captains the team this year. He said the strong Abbotsford sports community helped develop his passion for sports.

“I’m just humbled to be where I am right now with the support of my family and friends,” he said. “I always tell people I’m from Abbotsford because I’ve been privileged to grow up here and be a part of the sports community for as long as I have been.”

Balzer kicks off his BCHL run on Friday when the Eagles host the Langley Rivermen. For more information on the team, visit surreyeagles.ca.

2391 Crescent Way, Abbotsford (NEAR ABBEY ARTS CENTRE)

10:00am – 3:00pm As Canadian citizens, we enjoy many freedoms and advantages including governing laws that protect and support the rights of innocent victims of domestic violence and child abuse.

Sadly, however, those laws do not apply to the Juhasz family.

Marianna Juhasz and her two sons, Patrik (16) and Tamas (12) fled their home in Hungary in 2010 to escape

further violence and abuse of her youngest child at the hands of his father. They came to Canada and have been the personification of what it is to be Canadian; friendly, hard working, honest and kind. Marianna maintained 3 jobs just to make ends meet.

Her boys were good students who embraced the extra-curricular activities including football and the family flourished. After recently being de-

nied refugee status, they were issued a deportation notice and informed they would have to return to Hungary. Facing arrest and corruption in both police and child services in their home country, they were left with no alternative but to ask for sanctuary at Walnut Grove Lutheran Church in Langley until refugee status can be granted through humanitarian appeal.

Although they strive to hold onto hope, life in the confines of 4 walls has taken a toll on their spirits. Funds are desperately needed to continue the support for this wonderful family.

Any donation, big or small, would be extremely helpful. If monetary assistance isn’t an option, a donation of your time in the way of a personal visit with the Juhasz family would be greatly appreciated.

If you would like to donate in person or through our Go Fund Me site: gofundme.com/gjw2zo, or volunteer (time or resources) please email Brenda at bgolden@morguard.com.

Pilots renewing rivarly with Kodiaks Abbotsford opens season against team that eliminated them Abbotsford News

The Abbotsford Pilots return to the rink on Friday and have an opportunity to exact a little revenge for last season.

Abbotsford was bounced in the 2014-

15 playoffs last year in the first round in seven games by the Aldergrove Kodiaks, and the Pilots get a chance for some payback at the club’s home opener.

The Pilots battled back from a 3-1 series deficit last season only

to fall in the seventh and decisive game. The Kodiaks went on to lose in the next round to the Mission City Outlaws.

Forwards Kolten Grieve and Brady Lawlor, the Pilots’ top two scorers last season return to the club for

2015-16. Grieve, returning goaltender Jacob Crawford and returning defenseman Kellan Lavallee all were named all-stars last year and are expected to play key roles on the club in 2015-16. Other returning players include: Devon Becker, Phillip Gauthier, Joel Balzer, Cole Methorst, Mitchell Plevy, Lucian Serban, Alexander Methorst, and Hayden Guilderson.

Abbotsford went undefeated in five exhibition games earlier this year, posting three wins over the Langley Knights and playing the Princeton Posse to a tie.

The Pilots’ regular home night is Friday’s for 2015-16, with the puck dropping at the MSA Arena at 7:30 p.m. on most nights. This Friday’s game features an opening ceremonies and a celebration

to kick off the new season. The team hits the road on Saturday and travels to North Vancouver to battle the Wolf Pack.

The next big event on the Pilots’ calendar is the 16th annual Gary Graber and Richard Newton Memorial Fishing Derby. It runs on Oct. 17 to 18 at Tamihi Campground on Vedder River. Visit abbotsfordpilots.com for more information.

Mortensen posts first AAA win Abbotsford pitcher excels in AAA, looks to earn AA title Abbotsford’s Jared Mortensen had little in common with Kevin Costner - until now.

The Tampa Rays product suited up for the Durham Bulls, the same team featured in the popular baseball movie Bull Durham – only Mortensen did something Costner never did, which was shut out the opposition Mortensen blanked the Norfolk Tides 6-0 in the Bulls finale on Sept. 7 to finish a perfect two wins and no losses in his pair of AAA starts this season.

He worked his way out of a bases-loaded, noout jam in the third and struck out seven in the win.

The strong summer isn’t over yet for the Abbotsford Cardinals alum, who returns to the AA Montgomery Biscuits for the team’s playoff run in the Southern League. The Biscuits take on the Chattanooga Outlooks in a best of five in the semi-final starting on Sept. 10, with the South League finals occurring later this month.

Mortensen has compiled a record of seven wins and five losses, with an ERA of 3.78 and a WHIP of 1.22 in 24 appearances for the Biscuits this season. He continues his upward momentum in baseball’s minor leagues, after starting 2014 in Single-A with the Charlotte Stone Crabs of the Florida State League.

Earlier this summer, Mortensen helped lead Team Canada to a gold medal win in baseball at the PanAm Games in Toronto.

The Canadian team won the medal in July with a 7-6 win over the United States.

He’s scheduled to pitch in game five of the semi-final, if necessary.

Mortensen and the Biscuits are looking for Montgomery’s first league title since 2007.

UFV soccer back on the pitch Women’s, men’s teams kick off Canada West season Ben Lypka Abbotsford News

The UFV Cascades women’s soccer team returns to the pitch on Friday, looking to build on a fourth place in Canada last year.

UFV hosts the Victoria Vikes on Friday at 4 p.m., and the UBC Thunderbirds on Saturday at 6:15 p.m., with both games at Panther Field at Abbotsford Senior Secondary.

The Cascades fell 1-0 to the Thunderbirds in an exhibition game last week, after UFV scored wins in September and August over SFU, Concordia University, Pacific University and Corban University.

Much of last year’s fourth-place team returns for 2015, including Canada West Student-Athlete Community Service award winning goalkeeper Kayla Klim and 2014 Canada West second team all-star forward Monika Levarsky.

The women only lost to three teams last year: TWU, Laval and Ottawa – the three teams that placed above them nationally. The

THE ABBOTSFORD ARTS COUNCIL PRESENTS

Cascades enter the 2015 season ranked seventh nationally.

For the men, there’s a new face leading the charge but it’s one familiar to fans and players.

Former Cascades assistant coach Tom Lowndes takes the reins over the men’s team in 2015 after serving under previous head coach Alan Herrington for the past two seasons. Herrington retired in March after 11 years running the men’s program.

The men hit the road to start the season, visiting the UBCO Heat on Saturday and the TRU Wolfpack on Sunday. Both games kick off at 2 p.m.

The team placed third in the Pacific Division and fell to the Vikes in the Canada West quarter-finals. Key players returning for 2015 include Canada West first team all-star defender Colton O’Neill and UFV rookie athlete of the year for 2014 Tammer Byrne.

The men’s road games can be viewed online at canadawest.tv.

UFV occupies onethird of the building’s footprint and student-focused services including Advising and the Career Centre are located there.

UFV president Mark

Evered said the new SUB will inspire creativity and collaboration.

“I have no doubt that this will become the academic social centre of our Abbotsford campus, the kind of setting that almost demands creative conversation and collaboration.”

The building was financed on a costshared basis with UFV students contributing $10 million in funding through a $35 per semester fee and the university providing the balance of funding.

Craig Toews, UFV executive director of campus planning and resource development, said other universities are looking with interest into the innovative self-financing model for the project, which was achieved without government funding and with UFV not incurring debt.

The SUB is located at the southwest corner of the campus, just west of the Envision Athletic Centre.

One of the questions I get asked the most is, Should I sell first or should I find what I want to buy first? I believe in most years it is best to put your place on the market to sell first and then casually look and place an offer when you have an offer.

But this year things are a little different. The market is about the busiest it’s been in a decade and clean, well priced homes are selling almost immediately and often with multiple offers.

So my suggestion this year has often been, to buy a place first with a bit further away closing date and then, providing you have a fairly saleable property, put your place on the market anticipating a probably quick sale. To find out if this strategy would work in your situation give me a call and we can discuss it.

Acoustic duo J.D. Miner, featuring Darryl Klassen and Chad Joiner, perform at the Envision Financial Concert Submitted in the Park series this Saturday.

Concert in the Park wraps up

The final performance in the Envision Financial Concert in the Park series takes place this Saturday, Sept. 12 at the Kariton Art Gallery stage (2387 Ware St.) in Mill Lake Park.

The third annual Walk of Hope takes place this Sunday, Sept. 13 in Abbotsford, at Ellwood Park (31580 Maclure Rd.), with registration at 9 a.m. and the walk at 10 a.m.

Guest speaker will be Abbotsford Coun. Brenda Falk. There will also be various prizes, including Vancouver Canucks tickets and a hair salon gift card. The Walk of Hope raises money to battle ovarian cancer, which is not usually caught until it is in the late stages and has spread within the pelvis and abdomen.

More than 2,600 women in Canada are diagnosed with ovarian cancer each year, and more than 1,700 die from the disease. The Abbotsford committee has a goal each year to help save one family.

Chair Navreen Toor lost her mom to the disease in 2009 after a five-year battle, and she is among those striving for early detection to help prevent other families from going through similar situations.

PNE DANCERS

New directors for United Way United Way Fraser Valley has invited five members of its campaign committee to join its board of directors.

Frank Dunham, the former superintendent of the Mission school district, is returning to the United Way board after a short break.

New to the board are Lara Holtby of KPMG, George Dalal of the TD Bank Group, Lindsay Babineau of Canadian Western Bank, and Heather Johnson of Prospera Credit Union.

Johnson is also taking over the role as campaign chair from Robin Marshall, also from Prospera, who led last year’s record-breaking campaign.

Johnson has had a lead position on cabinet for a number of years. “I am pleased to help make a difference in the local Fraser Valley community,� she said. “By assisting the United Way, I am able to focus on one organization that supports important priority areas and many local agencies.�

Board president Tamara Van den Brink of RBC said she is “thrilled to be gaining some incredible people, with so much experience, to the board.� “These individuals are already extremely dedicated to making our communities a better place to live; we will all benefit by having their input at a board level.�

Though no trip to PEI would be complete without purchasing an Anne of Green Gables hat, which included her signature red, braided locks. Then wearing it for almost the rest of the adventure and having almost everyone take it for a spin.

I always thought I could pull off being a redhead. Then again, maybe not.

Whether it was the whale spotting while aboard the Confederation Ferry (from PEI to Nova Scotia), or jumping for joy when meeting the world’s largest lobster in Shediac, NB, or just taking a scenic run along the St. John river in Fredericton, NB, I wouldn’t say I’m a veteran when it comes to the lay of the land in the Atlantic provinces, but the next time I go, it won’t be my first rodeo.

And if the 2016 Subaru Forester is my steer, I’m heading in the right direction.

With or without crying kids.

The 2016 Forester 2.5i has a starting MSRP of $25,995 (excluding delivery and taxes.) The 2.0XT starts at $33,495 (excluding delivery and taxes.)
