The snow has been falling at Manning Park Resort, prompting one of the earliest openings on record.

Manning Park opens early Weekend opening marks one of the earliest on record Manning Park Resort is opening alpine ski operations this weekend, one of the earliest on record, and they’ve just announced an Opening Weekend Special. They will take $10 off your day pass if you bring non-perishable items for donation to the Food Bank when you purchase your lift ticket. General Manager Mike Barker expressed how excited he is to get people on the snow and also notes the importance of contributing to community in a meaningful way during a difficult time of year. Mike says, “It’s a win-win situa-

tion!” Manning Park Resort is opening with a peak snow depth of 116cm of all-natural, organic snow. The mountain has great coverage across all runs, and with another 10 cm of the good stuff that just fell last night, skiers and snowboarders are more than ready to go. Lifts in operation will be the Orange Chair and Handle Tow and updates will be available on their website regarding operations. Low season accommodation rates are also still in effect until

Chilliwack-Hope MP Mark Strahl was one of five Conservative MPs to make the shadow cabinet picked by interim leader of the Official Opposition, Rona Ambrose. Strahl was named Opposition critic for Fisheries and Oceans, and the Coast Guard last week. “I think it was a good fit for me, and for the MP of this riding, particularly with the Fraser River running through it,” said Strahl. “Plus we’re close to the Pacific Coast.” Fishing and aboriginal issues intersected quite a lot, he noted, in his previous role as parliamentary secretary for Aboriginal Affairs. “My experience in that role will serve me well,” Strahl said. He looks forward to the new role. “It’s a great opportunity and I was pleased to get the call.” In terms of priorities, it should be on conservation for DFO, Strahl said. “We want our precious salmon resource to be there for our children and grandchildren,” he said. It’s key for First Nations, and for local businesses that depend on the recreational fishing sector, particularly the sockeye runs. But the priority should also be ensuring that DFO operates with “common sense,” concentrating more on the Fraser River than farmers’ ditches in the Fraser Valley, for example, he said.
