‘Brutal attack’ leads to meth bust Three charged after woman tells police of sexual assault
BY TYLER OLSEN tolsen@chilliwacktimes.com
T
wo men and a woman are facing multiple assault charges in connection with what police describe as a “brutal attack” last week at an Aitken Road home where Mounties found a meth lab. Police say a distraught woman was spotted late last Thursday night in the Yale Road West area. The 32-year-old Surrey woman appeared to have been assaulted and was taken to hospital. The woman had just escaped the Aitken Road home, where police say she was held against her will and assaulted “in a manner that can
only be described as a brutal attack, which included weapons, threats, and physical abuse.” Charges laid also include sexual assault. Police arrested a man and a woman in downtown Chilliwack Friday evening and found the third man in the home that same night. In a storage container on the property, police found a lab they say was likely used to produce methamphetamine. No cooking was being done at the time of the EB IRST bust and RCMP s p o k e s p e r s o n First reported on Cpl. Lea-Anne chilliwacktimes.com Dunlop said no meth was found at the home. She said that when police busted the lab, one key ingredient that would have been needed to produce the drug was missing. The three people arrested all have extensive criminal backgrounds and links to the drug

Paperless future on city agenda BY PAUL J. HENDERSON phenderson@chilliwacktimes.com

Paul J. Henderson/TIMES
Stacks of Chilliwack city council agendas like this one accumulated by Times reporter Paul Henderson will be a thing of the past thanks to the new purchase of 17 Apple iPads.
n an effort to save time, money, trees, and to avoid some heavy lifting, city hall is about to go high-tech with the Apple iPad. Council agreed with a staff recommendation to move to electronic council packages on the popular new device in order to cut back on the thousands of sheets of paper used per year. Council agenda packages were an average of 320 pages in 2009. At an average of 29 meetings a year, staff calculate that, even with mostly double-sided copies, 156,600 sheets of paper are used per year involving just over 250,000 photocopy cycles. “It is anticipated that most of the paper used in council packages is ultimately recycled,” said the staff report prepared by direc-
Purchase of 17 Apple iPads means city will use 156,000 fewer sheets of paper tor of corporate services Robert Carnegie. Earlier this year, the number of council packages produced was reduced to 24 as the media were no longer given paper agendas and given digital versions only. At Monday’s meeting council approved the staff recommendation to purchase 17 iPads at $550 per unit. In a cost analysis, staff calculated the move would have a net savings of more than $8,000. The current practice of creating paper council packages for 29 meetings was estimated to cost $20,712.73—$1,760.30 in paper, $6,229.20 in photocopying expenses and $12,723.23 in labour. Staff estimated it took 11 hours of time per
meeting to create the packages. The paperless cost was estimated at $12,576.41—$9,350 in one-time cost for the iPads, $500 for the software and $2,726.41 in labour. However, in a note in the staff report, director of finance Chris Crosman pointed out to council that there is no actual net cash benefit because the employees who are paid to make the photocopies will continue as full-time employees. Councillors are currently issued PC laptop computers, but the recommendation suggested the iPads are considerably less expensive and when returned those laptops “can be redeployed in other applications.”

The trial of the alleged killers of Cody Gottschalk will be held in front of a judge, not a jury as the Times reported on Tuesday. The Times apologizes for the error. The trial begins Nov. 1. In our Sept. 7 story on local physician Mark MacKenzie, we mistakenly reported he was named B.C. Family Physician of the Year (FPOY) when in fact he was honoured with an Award of Excellence. The FPOY award will be announced in October.

experiencing something brand new.” But travelling has its challenges too, according to Einarsdottir. “The hardest part is carrying your life in a very small bag,” she said. “You only have a suitcase of stuff, and that’s all that identifies you as who you are.” Coming back to Chilliwack and the 11-acre hobby farm she’s called home since middle school is all the sweeter after a long trip. “It makes you appreciate home so much more,” she said. Einarsdottir’s travel-writing break with dohop.com came about a year and a half ago, when she was working on a master’s degree in nature tourism at the University of Iceland. The company had sent out an e-mail to the school looking for travellers interested in blogging their experiences for
espite recent troubles facing the provincial Liberals, Chilliwack MLA John Les isn’t exactly quivering in his boots over a recall campaign instigated by his opponent in the last election. Conservative party candidate Benjamin Besler created a Facebook group entitled “Recall John Les” on Sept. 3. As of Sept. 9 the group had 11 members. Besler describes the group as a “non-partisan group for the purpose of recalling John Les.” Last month the anti-HST campaign led by former premier Bill Vander Zalm announced it would begin recall campaigns against Liberal MLAs in mid-November. Some more vulnerable MLAs were first targeted, but given recent news that the government did have the HST on the agenda before the last election, Vander Zalm has said he will target Finance Minister Colin Hansen and Premier Gordon Campbell. When asked if this meant Besler would work on his own to unseat Les, he said he was unsure of Vander Zalm’s strategy. “I do know that I will be working with Fight HST as they are vital to the promotions of each individual recall campaign,” he told the Times via e-mail. “I am also welcoming any other

Chilliwack’s Katrin Einarsdottir chills with a troupe of Gentoo penguins in Antarctica during a trip earlier this year. The 23-year-old hopes to visit 200 countries by the time she turns 30.
200 before she’s 30 BY CORNELIA NAYLOR cnaylor@chilliwacktimes.com
Chilliwack native has lofty travel goal
ake an Icelandic dad and a Guyanese mom, and it’s not surprising if you come up with a globetrotting daughter. That’s the case with local world traveller Katrin Einarsdottir anyway. “You start in Iceland and Guyana, and then you want to see what’s in between,” she said in a Times interview during some time back in Chilliwack before setting off again on an Alaskan cruise and then a two-month tour of Central America. At age 23, the Sardis secondary grad has already been to 53 countries and her goal is to visit 200 before she turns 30. Toward that end, she even has an Icelandic flight search-engine website, dohop.com, sponsoring her travel blog and funding at least part of her travels. Not that Einarsdottir has ever let a lack of sponsorship keep her from seeing the world.
“I’ve just sort of always saved money for travels,” she said. “The money’s always being put in the bank for that next trip instead of a new car or rent.” Since catching the travel bug during a month-long homestay in Japan when she was just 15, Einarsdottir has earned travel money by working summer jobs—including acting and modelling in Vancouver and guiding horse tours in Iceland—between years at high school and university. Together with travel scholarships and, more recently, the money from dohop.com, it’s been enough to get her to all seven continents already. (Antarctica in January and February was the latest.) What draws her abroad is novelty. “Everything’s always new,” she said. “Every day you meet a new person or hear a new language or see a new place. It’s the constant novelty of seeing and

Zero. That’s the tax increase homeowners could expect from the District of Chilliwack in 1996. Chilliwack’s director of finance Phil Reeves said a lot of belt tightening and cost-saving measures were taken to reach the zero per cent goal. The 1996 budget was $13.9 million lower than the 1995 budget of $99 million with $7 million set aside for a recreation complex to be built in Sardis.

Cheaper detox ahead BY TYLER OLSEN tolsen@chilliwacktimes.com
H
ealth officials say a new detox program may be able to treat as many drug and alcohol addicts as did the recently closed 10-bed detox unit at Chilliwack General Hospital, despite costing just as third as much. Fraser Health has launched a mobile detox and “daytox” program that will cater to treating addicts with stable home environments. The program officially kicked off on Aug. 30 and will cost about $300,000 per year. That compares to the $1.3 million cost of the closed detox unit. The new program offers daytime monitoring and support from nurses and doctors either at a patient’s home, or through a “daytox” program at Chilliwack General Hospital. Those requiring 24-hour care, or without stable homes, will still need to travel to Surrey for detox. But Sherry Mumford, Fraser Health Mental Health and Addiction Services’ director of clinical programs, says the program should address a vital need in Chilliwack. Mumford said the program hopes to serve between 300 and 400 patients over a 12-month period. That compares to the “400 or so” who were served by the old unit. And she says the new mobile component provides a service that was not previously offered. Mumford hopes the mobile aspect of the detox program—in which nurses and assistants visit recovering addicts in their homes—will entice previously underserved communities to enter detox. Those workers will help administer medicine and liaise with families. “The goal here is to reach target populations that don’t typically go to an in-patient withdrawal management bed,” said Mumford. “For
seniors who are reluctant to leave, don’t want to come into a strange bed, so services for folks like that. We’ve had tremendous buy-in out here in the Fraser East from the First Nations, aboriginal communities.” Mumford also said many of the people who filled the detox beds at the old unit were users of stimulants (like crack cocaine) who could have gone through the process in their own homes. “We want to utilize the beds we have more effectively,” she said. For those with less stable homes, the program will transport such patients to the detox facility in Surrey and also provide short-term accommodation for those who have completed detox but who are waiting for spots in residential treatment programs. “This model that we have out here is going to do a much better job of ensuring clients don’t fall through the cracks when they finish the program,” said Mumford. A key component of the program includes the daytox program, which is sort of an AntiAddiction 101 course. Participants complete modules, attend individual and group counselling sessions and learn how to live without drugs or alcohol. As for those concerned about whether the detox program can adequately address the needs of addicts in the Fraser Valley, Mumford asks for their patience. “It is one of the most comprehensive home and mobile detox programs in existence in this province,” she said. “I would say to them, give us a few months and see what we can do . . . let’s see who we can provide services to.” ◗ Referrals to the program can be made by prospective patients, family members, doctors or anybody else at 1-866-795-0600.

olice are reminding the public, and youths in particular, that even pellet guns can lead to weapons charges. On Tuesday, officers responded to reports of shots fired after a round from a pellet gun pierced the rear window of

a car being driven in the First Avenue Charles Street area. “Generally speaking, if something looks like a firearm you shouldn’t be using it in any way in a public area,” said RCMP spokesperson Cpl. Lea-Anne Dunlop. “You could be charged with firearm related offences even if it’s not a working firearm.”
The young person responsible for the incident has been found, but police are still deciding about what action to take. “I think sometimes people don’t think through what’s about to occur” when air and pellet guns are involved, Dunlop said. “We’ve had full complements of members attend calls that . . . were air gun or pellet guns, but we have to assume that it’s real.”
hilliwack has made the top 10 in a contest to find the best fishing town in the country. As voting proceeded, the city was a longshot for the title of “Ultimate Fishing Town” in the World Fishing Network’s online competition but when the top 10 were announced last week the city received one of four wild card spots. Voting began Aug. 17 and the country was broken into three regions: Ontario, West and Atlantic. The top two from each region plus four wildcards made the finals. Massive vote tallies from Dauphin, Man., and Port Alberni, B.C., left Chilliwack way out of the running for top two in the west. On Tuesday, the network announced the top 10 including the wildcards and Chilliwack made it in and now will have a chance for the $25,000 prize along with a 30-minute TV program made about the city’s fishing. As with the recent Canada
Monopoly board, Mayor Sharon Gaetz is encouraging local residents to vote and vote often. The city has even put a link to the online contest frontand-centre on its website. “Whether it’s our worldfamous Pacific salmon runs, steelhead fishing on the Vedder River, fishing for trout in a crystal clear mountain lake or the opportunity to catch and release a mighty Fraser River sturgeon, we believe Chilliwack offers anglers who visit here repeatedly from all over the world, a unique and diverse fishing experience set amongst our spectacular scenery,” said Brian Coombes, executive director of Tourism Chilliwack, in a press release issued last week before the top 10 was announced. Tourism Chilliwack’s website to promote local fishing, www.fishchilliwack.com, has also put a link to the contest on its homepage. Voting for the winner began Sept. 7 and runs until Sept. 28 at www.wfn.tv/ultimate-fishing-town. People can vote once every 12 hours from each unique e-mail address.

Higher education changing
I
t’s early September and for many people that means getting ready to start or return to university for another term. The malls and plazas are extra busy as students load up on supplies, new clothes and other items. For some students though, the ritual of gearing up for a new semester is quite different than in the past. More and more post secondary students are discovering and enrolling in online classes. These typically provide the option of tending to course work at a time that works best for the individual. For many, without the flexibility of online learning, pursuing an education would be near impossible. Sadly, higher education has not necessarily been available to some very capable people given their financial and family situations. Those who have their roots in rural areas have always been forced to move to pursue an education; something that is not always feasible. The flexibility of online learning is slowly eroding these obstacles. Online courses typically follow the regular 13 week semester but so long as one has access to the World Wide Web, students can complete the course requirements from anywhere and usually at any time of the day or night that suits them. Far from

Crime Matters being an easy alternative, online courses are typically just as rigorous, or even more so, than regular classroom based offerings. I’ve been building and teaching online courses in the School of Criminology and Criminal Justice at the University of the Fraser Valley for several semesters and am convinced this is the most significant innovation in education in the past 50 years. The reality is that young people have grown up communicating and acquiring information very differently than did previous generations. For them, the online learning environment is comfortable, familiar territory. Some of my students would never speak up in a regular classroom yet are completely at ease making thoughtful and informed contributions to online discussions. In the global community, online learning makes a powerful statement. I have had students taking courses who live in China, Japan, Australia, England, Switzerland, the U.S., Alberta
and from all over B.C. One student completed a course while backpacking in Central America. Another proudly boasted at length that he submitted his assignment from the renowned Senor Frog’s Restaurant and Bar in Cancun. He even uploaded a photo in case anyone in the class doubted his story. We shop, socialize, bank and do just about everything else online. Delivering legitimate and fully accredited university courses online was inevitable. Oh sure, there are some relics adamant that a quality education can only be delivered in a huge lecture hall by a spectacled professor wearing a vintage tweed blazer with elbow pads, scribbling on a chalk board. Mind you, there are also countless sociology faculties still worshipping Lenin, Mao and Castro. So we shouldn’t be overly concerned about the dinosaurs among us. Fortunately, most institutions of higher learning are embracing online learning rather than resisting it. And there’s something about being in Cancun in the middle of the semester that just sounds a bit too irresistible. ◗ John Martin is a criminologist at the University of the Fraser Valley and can be contacted at John.

abour Day was something of a dark and dismal day this year. The skies were leaden, and moderate to heavy rains drenched streets and dampened spirits, punctuating the end of a reasonably pleasant summer. It was suitable weather to mark a day devoted to celebrating labour and labourers in British Columbia, where the minimum wage has stagnated for a decade. B.C.’s $8 per hour minimum wage is now the lowest in Canada. Prince Edward Island offers a minimum of $8.70, and even the capitalist hotbed of Alberta sets the standard at $8.80. Remarkably, the provincial government crowed in a recent press release outlining its accomplishments on behalf of labour that “only 2.3 per cent of workers are collecting minimum wage or less.” What!? Where did that “or less” come from? Is there a minimum wage in B.C., or not? Even ignoring that “or less,” one could argue that the provincial government actually lowered B.C.’s minimum wage when it started allowing employers to pay as little as $6 per hour for young people entering the labour force. Another of the government’s proudly listed accomplishments is raising of the province’s average hourly wage for all workers by 25 per cent since 2001. That’s great for those who have been doing well, but it also represents a significant widening of the gap for the working poor stuck at or near the minimum. The 25 per cent (or more) raise that everyone else got would have represented $2 per hour for those at the bottom of the labour food chain. Labourers in B.C. are the third highest paid in Canada. Rationalizing the minimum wage to a similar level would raise us all.

Good time to pay attention Editor: Some may dismiss the following but, the only way for elected representation to be “just that” is for what is now massive, and used to be normal, voter turn out. It is now so important who we send to decide on our behalf know who we are and who we believe by the biggest numbers possible. Full votes remove hiding places by forcing consideration of common good over narrow interest costumed as abstract benefit. A suggestion: let all elections be on a Wednesday. “All” means local, provincial and Federal. An election Wednesday would be an otherwise Sunday equivalent. Of course this means everyone would have to give up a little bit. However, those portions or sectors of our society with the loudest objection would present a clear mirror of ‘what we may have lost.’ The stability we’ve lived over the last while didn’t start
easy. The economy, wealth and the extras we take for granted is brand new. Just begging for you to pay attention; now would be a great time. G.R.Watson Chilliwack
Taint of religion behind issue Editor: In regard to Ms. Anderson’s denial of birth control pills by her doctor; I’m very disappointed to hear that a so-called professional woman of science felt compelled to make her patient the victim of her superstitious beliefs. Birth control as well as abortion are legitimate medical practices in this country and are covered under our universal health care system; as such, every Canadian should have access to those services. In denying Ms. Anderson birth control, this doctor denied her the access she is entitled to. I believe that this doctor should be rebuked by the B.C. College of Physicians and Surgeons or at the very least be compelled to inform her patients of services that she will not render. If she can refuse a patient access to health care services with

deal). And deciding not to propagate should not condemn her to a sexless marriage. Psychologists have long agreed that regular sex in a marriage is a “natural” and healthy practice, which releases chemicals in the brain that improve bonding between couples and provide an overall sense of well-being. As for the “tragedy” of abortion some respondents have referred to; the greatest tragedy here is that it is still denied to women in some parts of the planet. Abortion is a medical boon to women with life-threatening or unplanned pregnancies and to our society as a whole. The real tragedy is the lack of access to sex education, contraception and abortion services vis-a-vis religious dogmas which condemn women to be bred at the behest of gods and their self-righteous followers. Is it any wonder that the most pious state in the U.S., Texas, also has the highest teen pregnancy rate? I support our Charter of Rights and Freedoms including the freedom to worship the religion of one’s choice. But with every right comes the responsibility to enjoy it without impeding the rights of others. And just as freedom of speech does not allow one to yell “fire” in a crowded theatre when there is no fire, so should freedom of religion not allow one to inflict it upon others in any place whether that place is your doorstep or your doctor’s office.

impunity then what is to stop another doctor refusing a female patient service because she isn’t wearing a burka or yet another from allowing a patient to die for want of a simple blood transfusion? It should also be made clear to doctors wishing to practice in this country that their services are to be offered in a secular manner without imposing their religion upon their patients. Oops! Now I’ve gone and done it. I’ve gone and poked the elephant in the room. Although some of the righteous responders supporting the doctor have couched it in terms such as “natural Law” or immorality, there is no mistaking the taint of religion in their ire. There isn’t sufficient space here to address all of them, however, to J. Kuester from Vancouver you may believe that your religion/cult created our morals and ethics but if history has shown us anything, it is that our morals and ethics have evolved and survived in spite of religions and not because of them. And what are we to assume of your ambiguous reference to natural law? Are we to stop wearing clothing now or using antibiotics to stop infections? And how about insulin? Does it offend your cult’s natural law? Should we allow diabetics to die because the treatment is not natural? Far from acting like an immoral animal, Ms. Anderson made a responsible and moral decision to not add another person to a planet that cannot support the 6.7 billion plus we presently have (apparently the God of the desert who ordered his fearful grovellers to “go forth and multiply” has reneged on the “. . . and He will provide” portion of the

Editor: R. Gains letter in the Sept. 7 Chilliwack Times was right on. I hope more voters in Chilliwack re-read this letter. We folks in Greendale, who went through the recent flood, have the same hopeless feeling about our Chilliwack plutocracy. They can use our taxpayer money to buy 43 or so homes sliding down a hill (which they said is not the city’s fault—ya think?) for $18 million but when asked when they are going to protect the 1,000-plus families here in Greendale/Yarrow and area from flooding, for the same amount, we got nothing but moronic grins from our beloved elected councillors and confused officials. The report on the reasons behind the flood, much like the money spent on current transit problems, for consultant reports costing hundreds of thousands of dollars, are then ignored by our current elected motley crew. The same elected few that don’t ride transit and did not have their houses flooded. How the chosen few who were sliding down a hill (maybe related?) got their $18 million, is a wonder to many of us taxpayers. You know, maybe it’s time for Greendale/Yarrow to secede from Chilliwack, (Sardis you can come with us too), we surely could not get any less services from transit or flood control. And hey Ken, we just may put you in as our mayor, or maybe not, many don’t want your type representing us ever again. This, Ken, is your cue to give us “the smile” and jump on the #8 bus route to city hall to do whatever you are paid to do, for a change. G. Glassel Soon to be a Director of

Would Jesus burn the Qur’an?
BY SHAWN VANDOP Promontory Community Church
I
’m baffled, embarrassed and downright disgusted. Why is it that there’s always some crazy Christian who espouses some silly idea or action thinking they represent God? I’m talking about 58-year-old Pastor Terry Jones from Florida who believes burning the Qur’an on Sept. 11 will bring some form of redemption for the 2001 attacks on the New York Twin Towers. This, of course, is ludicrous. What he’s really doing is painting his convictions on the canvas of
his own stupidity. He may get his 15 minutes of fame but in the process will give thousands of people another reason to write off God and Christianity. So, let me just say, what Mr. Jones is proposing is not what Jesus had in mind. I’ll admit Christianity and Islam do not see eye to eye. Our beliefs about God and salvation are very different, yet our disagreements should never lead to hatred. Jesus told us to “love our enemies” (Luke 6:27-36) and he didn’t just pay lip service to this command—he actually practised it. Even at the end of his life while

hanging on a Roman cross he extended grace and forgiveness to those that put him there (Luke 23:34). The thing about Jesus is that, because he knew who he was and what he believed, he was able to confidently challenge others about what they believed without relegating to “name calling” or acts of bigotry. Jesus knew the difference between agreement and acceptance. Most people don’t. All too often we figure that by accepting someone we are endorsing everything about them. But it is possible to accept someone without agreeing with them. I do it with
my kids all the time. There’s not a day that goes by where we agree on how much computer time they can have or how late they can stay out or whether or not their chores are an option. We disagree, but our disagreement does not impact my acceptance of them. I can still love them and accept them even though we don’t see things the same way. That is what Jesus modelled and expects from those who would claim to be his followers. We don’t have to agree but we do have to love. We can challenge, dialogue and even debate but we must do it with an attitude of openness.

Jesus told us that the greatest commandment is to love God and love others (Mark 12:29-31). He did not leave the option for us to love only those who think, act and believe like we do. So that begs the question that I think Mr. Jones and all of us need to ask in this situation, “Would Jesus burn the Qur’an or would he love his Muslim neighbours?’ How you answer that question will tell the world exactly what you know or don’t know about Jesus. ◗ Shawn is the pastor of Promontory Community Church.You can connect with him at shawn@ mypcc.ca.

Gwynne Vaughn Park gets courthouse granite
M
ayor Sharon Gaetz was at Gwynne Vaughan Park on Thursday with members of the Chilliwack Foundation and the Gwynne Vaughan Park Society to point out some changes under way at the popular Fairfield Island park. Nearly completed improvements will help to increase the profile of the green space on Hope River Road and Williams Road, according to the city. A new entrance sign and stairs will welcome park users into the formal garden of the park. The stairs used in the project are granite slab stairs salvaged from the old
downtown post office. The improvements are part of a co-operative project between the Chilliwack Foundation, the Gwynne Vaughan Park Society and the city. The work, valued at approximately $48,000, will be completed by local contractors this fall. Established in 1993, the park consists of 6.8 acres of lawns, gardens and a heritage orchard, all surrounding a heritage house built in 1896. It contains a large number of heritage and specimen trees, a wide variety of heritage shrubs and roses, and a large formal perennial border.

Sports Peewee Blues knock off last year’s champion Abbotsford The Peewee Blue Giants knocked off the defending provincial champion Abbotsford Falcons 34-19 to open their season in style last weekend. Wyatt Uzick had 15 carries for 193 yards and two touchdowns while Gabe Mannes carried the ball 13 times for 149 yards and another pair of scores, including a 100-yard scamper in the second half. Spencer Breslin’s sevenyard touchdown catch in the second quarter gave the Blue Giants a lead they would not surrender while Emilio Pineda, in his debut at running back, had very workmanlike numbers with four carries for 29 yards. The Giants were running on all cylinders, including special teams, as both Gabe Mannes and Aaron Guliker recovered onside kicks. Defensively the Giants were led by Michael Lengert and Tyler Kermode. Lengert had five tackles and three sacks in one half of football while Kermode was all over the field making touchdown-saving tackles. Taj Sidhu and Reese Smith both recovered fumbles for the Giants while Owen Eyres and Adam Phillips were solid at corner. The Giants take on the Mission Niners at home this Saturday. JB Blues push Falcons to the edge . . . and leave with a tie The Junior Bantam Blue Giants played their game of the year on week one as they played the Abbotsford Falcons to a controversial 30-30 tie after a hard-fought game on both sides of the ball. Running back Tyler Sprott carried the load for the Giants with tough
Giants briefs running inside while quarterback Hunter Larocque threw a 40-yard strike to put the Giants in scoring position with less than a minute to play. The Giants moved the ball down to the twoyard line with seconds to play, but Sprott, who is also the Giants’ kicker, suffered a serious ankle sprain on the ensuing play and was forced out of the game. Without a kicker, the Giants attempted to run the convert in, but came up short, according to the referees. And while a replay clearly showed the convert as successful, without any review in minor football, the Giants had to be content with the tie. Linebacker Tristan Davis and defensive tackle Chris Derksen led the way for an aggressive Giants defence while linebacker Lane Levesque and corner Conner Moore had several highlight reel tackles on Abbotsford’s running back phenom Chase Claypool. The Giants take on the Mission Niners this Saturday at Townsend Park. JB Reds trample Meadow Ridge as Walsh scored three TDs The Chilliwack JB Red Giants opened their regular season with a convincing 40-6 win over Meadow Ridge. Treyvon Walsh had a spectacular game scoring three touchdowns, including a 50-yard touchdown reception courtesy of quarterback Kirkland Kennedy. Walsh also kicked two extra
points, had a 35-yard punt return and rounded out his day by recovering an onside kick. Cory Armstrong had another impressive offensive day, rushing for over 160 yards and twice reaching the end zone. On defence, Nashon Douglas was a force, recording two sacks and several solid tackles. Ben Pretty, Emerson Harvey, Duncan McCracken and Thijs Duinveld also provided a spark on defence while Noah Toews recorded his second interception of the season late in the game to help seal the victory for the Red Giants. Midget team shows why they are defending champs Chilliwack Giants Midget team opened their defence of their provincial championship title with a dominating 36-6 win over the North Surrey Bears. Running backs Brad Esau, Steven Porcina and Josh Hayden were all standouts in this contest while quarterback Cody Parray was in complete control of the offence. On the defence, defensive end Cole Herrmann led the way and made life miserable for North Surrey all night. The Midgets play their next game Sunday against the Cloverdale Bengals in Cloverdale. Atom Blues drop two despite fighting tooth and nail The Chilliwack Giants Atom Blues took a lickin’ but kept on ticking in dropping their opening two games of the season. The Blues fell 54-6 to the Abbotsford Falcons Saturday but showed heart in battling on and clawing points out of the game.
#300-45860 Cheam Ave. Chilliwack, BC V2P 1N6
Despite being asked if they wanted to let the clock run in the second half, the Blues fought on sparked by efforts from those like linewoman Kaylee Rogers. The defence held the Abbotsford offence at their own five-yard line late in the game. That key stop was followed by a massive 95yard-run by Andrew Locke for the Giants sole touchdown. On Sunday, Locke showed his ability on the other side of the ball, making four solo tackles and five assisted tackles as a linebacker. Coach Sean Dalls called Locke his “iron-man” as the Giants held the Meadow Ridge Blue Falcons to just 12 points. Michael Martin also played well as the Giants kept the game close but were unable to put points on the board as they fell 12-0.

Bantams dethrone Knights by showing they won’t quit The Chilliwack Giants Bantams opened their season with a 21-13 victory over the Meadow Ridge Knights Saturday. Meadow Ridge took a 6-0 lead into the second half but Chilliwack busted the game open thanks to a 40-yard pass-and-run touchdown by Mike Gregory. Wide receiver Filip Horak and Connor Herrmann added touchdowns to lead the Giants to victory. A key interception by safety Maleek Irons helped seal the win. “It was a very exciting game,” said coach Tom Rutledge. “I am proud of the boys. They didn’t quit and came out in the second half full of energy and excitement.” ◗ Compiled by staff

this spring’s bantam draft. The Bruins signed Clay Spencer, who was chosen 29th overall in the draft, and Luke Harrison, who was chosen 51st, to standard WHL education contracts. Spencer scored 30 goals and added 36 assists in 33 games last season with Lethbridge of the Alberta Bantam Hockey League last year. Harrison spent last year with the Westside Bantam Tier 2 team. “We’re really pleased to have these two players join our organization,” said Bruins general manager and head coach Marc Habscheid. “They performed well throughout camp and we look forward to seeing them improve throughout the coming season.” The 15-year-olds are eligible to play no more than five games each for the Bruins over the coming season. First-round draft pick Kennan Kanzig was signed in June.

A
Michigan tournament for National Hockey League prospects next week will have a distinctively Chilliwackian flavour. Roman Horak, a New York Rangers draft pick, will join up with undrafted Bruins captain Brandon Manning, who secured an invite from the Rangers to the annual Traverse City Prospects Tournament, which beings on Saturday in Traverse City, Mich. But the pair won’t be the only Bruins in Michigan this weekend. After taking on prospects from the Columbus Blue Jackets organization on Saturday, Horak and Manning will face off against a couple of old friends on Sunday. On that day, the Rangers will face Carolina Hurricanes prospects, including Hurricane draft pick (and Bruins defenceman) Tyler Stahl and tournament invitee Chris Collins. Dylen McKinlay, meanwhile, will suit
up for the Minnesota Wild prospects. The Wild square off with the Hurricanes Saturday, the Blue Jackets Sunday and the Rangers on Tuesday. Two other Bruins are also headed to NHL camps, although neither of their teams are sending a squad to the Traverse City tournament. Ryan Howe will participate in the Calgary Flames’ training camp, while Kevin Sundher will do the same with the Buffalo Sabres.

Those Lazy, Hazy, Crazy Days of Summer When Nat King Cole sang about the “lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer,” by ‘crazy’ he meant ‘crazy great’. This summer has been ‘crazy’. ‘ Crazy good’ locally: crashes way down on the new Seato-Sky highway and also down across the province. But just plain old ‘crazy not great’ internationally.
THE ROAD RULES
In early August, in Cedric Hughes Switzerland, a Swedish motorist driving a $230,000 Mercedes was caught by a ‘new generation’ speed camera on the A12 highway between Bern and Lausanne travelling at close to 290 kmh. Swiss speeding fines are a function of the motorist’s income and the vehicle’s speed. This motorist is facing the highest possible penalty of 300 days of fines at $3,533 per day, which at $1,060,000 totals the world’s biggest speeding fine. Also in early August, the American Automobile Association released a study in which two-thirds of the dog owners surveyed said they routinely drive while cradling pets in their laps or “perching [them...] on their chests.” Unrestrained pets inside moving vehicles are a hazard. They are distracting, they can become lethal projectiles, and if they survive a crash, they can be a hazard to emergency-responders. About 40 per cent of Americans own dogs. Only 17 per cent of the survey respondents said they use a petrestraint system. In short, we now know that pets are a major distraction for a significant number of drivers. The reporting of the death of a two-yearold Ontario boy in Houston, Texas from excessive heat exposure on August 19th after being forgotten for two hours in a sweltering vehicle also disclosed that eight other children have died in Texas due to
excessive heat in the past two months. One of these children, a two-year-old in an elderly woman’s care wandered outside and locked himself in an abandoned vehicle where he was found five hours later.
Janette Fennell of the non-profit organization Kids and Cars says the invention of the airbag Barrister & Solicitor has led to a marked increase in child deaths due to excessive heat. “Because children can no longer sit in front seats due to risk of ...airbag detonation, parents are more likely to forget their children are seated behind them.” She notes that nothing has been designed to compensate for this important change. “A simple technological reminder,” she said, “could save hundreds of children’s lives.” In late August, a Calgary story contradicted what we like to think about the Canadian character. A surveillance video captured first a crash on a freeway ramp only minutes from a Calgary hospital, and then car after car driving past without stopping to help the injured driver, ultimately pronounced dead at the scene. The police reported no “endless list of calls to 911.” People didn’t call and people didn’t stop. ...And finally there was the traffic jam on the Beijing-Tibet expressway: 100 kilometers long and lasting nine days with individual drivers caught for as long as three days. A spokesman for the Beijing Traffic Management Bureau reportedly said the backup was due to “insufficient traffic capacity ... caused by maintenance construction.” Cedric Hughes L.L.B.

hilliwack police seized crack cocaine, ecstasy and packaging indicative of drug dealing from a Southlands Drive home Wednesday. Mounties also seized scales, as well as a 22-calibre handgun and a crossbow from the home, which is located in the 46000 block of Southlands Drive, just off of Young Road. Three people arrested at the house have been released as police continue their investigation.
This was not the first time police had visited the home. In 2008, police busted a marijuana grow-op in the house. RCMP spokesperson Cpl. LeaAnne Dunlop said the presence of weapons in the home wasn’t surprising. “We often find when we conduct an investigation into drugs that weapons are present,” she said. “Taking these weapons off the street is a benefit to our community.”
METH, from page 1 trade, according to police. The three appeared in court Tuesday to face multiple charges. Dunlop could not say if there are any ties to organized crime. Jorg Rautenberg, 45, of Surrey, is charged with assault causing bodily harm, assault with a weapon, assault, uttering threats, unlawful confinement, sexual assault, possession of a prohibited firearm and knowingly possessing a firearm without a licence. Vernon Hill, 40, and Snjezana Rajcic, 41, both of Chilliwack,
Lab found in shipping container have been charged with assault causing bodily harm, assault with a weapon, uttering threats and unlawful confinement. All three have been remanded in custody and are scheduled to appear again in court on Friday. The lab, which was found in a shipping container, was dismantled but, because it was close to a slough, police have notified Department of Fisheries and Oceans and Provincial Emergency Program officials about the
potential environmental impact. It is not known if any chemicals made it to the water. Dunlop credited a woman who spotted the victim for sparking the investigation. “In incidents like this sometimes the victim may have their own reluctance to talk to police directly, sometimes we’re never notified, so we’re very thankful that the member of the public did do the right thing and come forward with this information.”

147 countries left TRAVEL, from page 3 the website, and she was a natural fit. With 147 countries still to visit in the next seven years, she’ll definitely have plenty of material. “Politically there aren’t even 200 countries,” she said, “but that’s because places like Greenland are still politically Denmark, but I count Greenland as its own place.” (Yes, she’s been to Greenland.) Going by politics and geography, Einarsdottir figures there are actually 206 “countries,” but there are some she’ll probably be giving a miss—like politically impenetrable North Korea, remote South Pacific Vanuatu or the downright deadly Democratic Republic of Congo. Her mom is already skittish enough about her travels.
“She’s always a little worried, but she’s supportive, and my dad thinks it’s great,” said Einarsdottir.“But they’re always just parents. They worry about my safety a lot because it’s hard to travel alone as a female depending on where you are, and I’m often in places with no Internet or no phones.” It may not always be easy, but one goal of Einarsdottir’s blog is to show would-be female travellers it can be done. And what will she do once she’s proved her point? “When I’m 30, I think I’ll want to maybe settle down and meet a guy and do the other things you’re supposed to do in life,” she said. “But between now and then I just want to be totally independent travelling.” ◗ To read all about Einarsdottir’s travels, visit katrin. dohop.com or follow her on twitter at katrinsif.

Producer Lenard Stanga explains: “While it’s Grandpa Trollson’s 200th birthday, he does not want to come out of his tree stump because he is afraid he does not have anything to offer anymore. But in the end he realizes he is a great storyteller. The Trollsons is about valuing the culture growing older and what people have to offer.” The Trollsons have been entertaining audiences since 1995, travelling to festivals and special

To Lewis, square dancing is an inherently social pastime. “You’re formed up into four couples in a square,” he said, “and you get to know those people very well and rely on them to be where you want them to be.” But social benefits aren’t the only reason square dancing is being celebrated next week; the provincial proclamation
also cites health benefits like stress relief and the development of flexibility, strength and co-ordination. That’s something Rose-Ann found when she first took up dancing with her husband 10 years ago. “Our caller says that a good night of square dancing is probably the equivalent of four kilometres of walking,” she said. The Rhythm Reelers— about 70 members strong— hold dances at Atchelitz Hall every Monday night (except holidays) at 7:30 p.m. Although the club tends

he Naden Band of Maritime Forces Pacific, Canada’s Pacific Naval Fleet Band, will perform Sailors and Songs, a musical tribute to the Canadian Naval Centennial in Chilliwack on Sept. 21. Inspired by the Meet the Navy musical review produced during the Second World War, the Sailors and Songs musical repertoire covers: the birth of Canada’s navy; its early success through World War I; its coming of age as the third largest navy in the world during the battles of the Atlantic and St. Lawrence River in the Second World War; standing on guard through the Cold War; current operations on behalf of Canada; and meeting the challenges of the future on Canada’s three ocean frontiers. The program includes selections by guest vocalists Stephanie Greaves and Ken Lavig-
ne of Victoria. Greaves is an accomplished popular singer well known in Victoria and the Lower Mainland. A lyrical tenor, Lavigne made his Carnegie Hall debut in New York City last year. Vintage photography enhances a musical program that will satisfy a variety of musical tastes. Proceeds will support the Canadian Naval Veterans’ Association. Sailors and Songs is a musical voyage through 100 years of Canadian naval service with music representing the founding of the navy to current operations.

q u a re d a n c i n g h a s been called “friendship set to music” and aptly too. At the end of the Second World War, the friendly folk dance was an olive branch American troops brought with them to vanquished foes like Germany and Japan, and square dancing is still popular in those countries today. Closer to home, the downhome dance has a tradition of bringing people together too, from sweaty-palmed teenagers in high school gym classes to retirees in local clubs. That’s one of the reasons the provincial government has declared next week, Sept. 11 to 19, Square and Round Dance Awareness Week. “Square and round dancing allows dancers to meet and enjoy the company of people from all walks of life,” reads the proclamation. In Chilliwack, the merits of square dancing are already well known, but local square dancer Trev Lewis still thinks a special week is a good idea. “It gets people out,” he said, “and it encourages people who may have dropped out of square dancing for one reason or another to come back
to attract a more mature set, Lewis said last year’s dances drew a few university-aged dancers as well. “We try to make it fun for them and try to include them,” said Lewis, “so there’s not just a bunch of old gray hairs hanging around.” To attract new members young and old, the club offers teaching classes and invites newcomers to their first two nights of square dancing free. (Usually each dance costs $6 to cover the cost of hall rentals, callers and refreshments.) Once they hit the dance floor, though, veterans and newcomers alike can expect to be put through the paces by the club’s energetic caller as he calls out moves for them to follow. “If he has an older set of people, he’ll tune it down quite a bit,” said Lewis, “but if he has a younger set of people and they’re all gung-ho, he’ll just keep cranking it up, and you go faster and faster.”

Our club meetings are held at our hall situated on Hope River Road, every second and fourth Thursday of the month at 7 p.m. During the summer, the club enjoyed a time of fellowship and fun at our club picnic held at our hall on Hope River Road and some good laughs “dunking” our President Glen in our Dunk Tank! Lion Robert organized a “Toy Workshop”. For 3 days in August, The BC Wooden Toy Makers Society and Lions taught 19 kids some working skills, as they made their own toy. We also trained two Lady Lions, Vi & Christian. We thank them for their help as well as Wally & Al (Toy Society Elves) & Lions Hank, Robert, & Bill. At the same time, we finished 30 toys for Community Services. This project also raised $90.00 for Ann Davis Society & Chilliwack Safety Village. We all had a good time. Come out to Chilliwack Ford, Sept. 9, 10, & 11th for our BBQ Hot Dog Fundraiser with all donations received going to the YMCA. This is part of Chilliwack Fords annual Car Sale Blowout. Put your name in for the free car auction!

Fond memories linger every day, Remembrance keeps them near.

Excellent running order, but tempermental in cold weather. Without a doubt, this is the most dependable model ever made. If you see this exceptional antique, wish him Happy Birthday.

I feel a warmth around me like your presence is so near, And I close my eyes to visualize your face when you were here, I endure the times we spent together and they are locked inside my heart, For as long as I have memories we will never be apart, Even though we cannot speak no more my voice is always there, Because every night I go to sleep I have you in my prayer. ...one year closer to you ...missing you every moment ...loving you always. All my love, Karen xoxo

July 17, 1924 ~ September 4, 2010
We have just lost a great, great man! Cliff (Joe to his brothers and sister), left Ossome Acres very suddenly last Sunday at the age of 59. Cliff was the strong silent type, the man behind the scenes, the man you could always count on to get the job done, the husband, the father, the grandfather, the friend and our Rock of Gibraltar. We will all miss him very, very much. Cliff was born in Aldergrove and worked on the family dairy farm until the age of 16. When the family moved to Abbotsford, Cliff graduated from Abbotsford Senior High, then worked at different jobs before settling into a career with Corrections Canada. Cliff worked as a Corrections Officer for 28 years and at the age of 50 retired to come home and look after the family farm (Ossome Acres). Cliff has been involved with the Camp River Hall Board since marrying June and moving to Chilliwack and has served as Treasurer for approximately 20 years. A very generous man, Cliff donated blood 115 times and even in his passing, was able to donate many of his organs to the BC Transplant Society, where he continued to give to others. Cliff is survived by his wife June (they recently celebrated their 30th Anniversary), his sons Aaron (Noella), Darryl (Tanya, granddaughters Cesily and Felicity), Ryan and Tyson, his mother Audra Oss, sister Darlene, brothers Arne, Merv and Lorne (Cathy), and father-in-law Norm Standeven. Pre deceased by his fathers Nels, brother Dennis and mother-in-law Joyce Standeven. The family would like to thank all the health care professionals who cared for Cliff; the paramedics and the doctors and nurses at Chilliwack Hospital and Royal Columbian Hospital. You were sensitive, compassionate and provided the best care to a very loved man. We would also like to thank our family and friends, you know who you are. We thank you for your prayers, phone calls, visits, flowers and all the wonderful food you have provided. The funeral service will be held on Thrusday, September 16 at 2:00 pm at Henderson’s Funeral home in Chilliwack 45901 Victoria Avenue with a reception immediately following at the Camp River Hall at 50246 Camp River Road, Rosedale. In lieu of flowers please send donations to the Canadian Red Cross, the BC Transplant Society or the charity of your choice.

Cancer June 21-July 22: This week starts with a romantic mood (Sunday) – and it’s a clue for the future, as a major romantic theme plays for you now through next January. If you’re single, this could have wedding bells attached. Two types of delays end early this week: the setbacks and mistakes in travel, communications and bitty details over the last several weeks,and the deeper,more subtle but powerful delays in relationships, marriage, partnership, opportunity and negotiations (since April). These resume forward motion. A lucky legal, travel, educational, love or cultural event (or “start”) is imminent! Leo July 23-Aug. 22: Something will either be solved, end, or begin this week. (Gee, that was an easy prediction!) This occurs in your spheres of sexual intimacy, mutual financial resources, investments/debt, deep health, or “detective work.” (These are actually the same sphere – it’s the place of deep drives, your “engine room.”) An ally or enemy is involved. And the actual “event” is sudden, lucky, perhaps unexpected. (Lucky, but not necessarily monetarily: the exhilaration here is from freedom.) Many delays end now, especially in earnings, possessions, home, real estate and employment. Don’t look back! Virgo Aug. 23-Sept. 22: Your energy, charisma and effectiveness hit a yearly high. Delays end. (You might still feel indecisive, but the cure for this is to act – action creates its own decisiveness.) A new start, or the sudden solution to an old problem, or the sudden return of an old situation, occurs – it involves marriage or a partnership, an opportunity, relocation, fame, dealings with the public, negotiations, litigation, competition, or similar relationship dealings. A fivemonth delay in romantic, creative, speculative or child-oriented ventures also ends now. Thursday/ Friday contain nice clues about this.

Tim Stephens' Astral Reflections Aries March 21 - April 19: It’s your last week (well, 10 days) of work, drudgery and health concerns. Recent delays and mistakes ebb, giving you the freedom to charge ahead. Quickly tackle past due and new jobs. Next week will begin a month of opportunity, negotiation or wrestling with a challenge – you’ll want to be free of the chains of chores. Your sexual, financial and “deep health” zones grow more and more important – and generally lucky – now into December. This can lead to a lustful affair, an investment or settlement – all of which open lifestyle doorways. Love is a (the!) “source of health.” Taurus April 20-May 20: Romantic, creative, child-oriented and pleasure delays end. Act fast – you only have 10 days to win someone’s heart, or make your creative mark. (Of course there will be other opportunities down the road. In fact, you’ve just started a four-month run of social luck, flirtations and popularity – and light romance, if you’re single. But “light” contrasts with the present deep influence.) Sunday promotes partnerships (be diplomatic). Sex, secrets and high finance Monday to Wednesday: caution flags fly. Mellow wisdom, love Wednesday-Friday. A big (social) surprise Saturday! Gemini May 21-June 20: This week offers a sudden breakthrough in career, prestige and worldly position, or with a parent, boss or authority figure. A legal, publishing, educational or far-travel project might be involved – so might a partner, a fight or a negotiation (even potential fame). Hope, pray, have faith! Delays at home and in general end now – more subtly, elusive but quietly crushing delays (since April) in sexual, health and financial zones also end. You’ll feel more effective. The 10 days ahead feature your domestic scene, real estate, kids, security: charge ahead here, especially Friday.

Sept. 12 - Sept. 18
Libra Sept. 23-Oct. 22: A breakthrough or new start might occur in employment, machinery or health zones. (Perhaps Saturday late afternoon/supper hour – a good time to chase such things.) You’ve attracted attention, obvious or not, for the last five weeks. Now that romantic wave subsides. But your chances for sensual satisfaction (e.g., a casual affair) actually increase, now to December. Keep your eye on the long-term: 2011 through 2012 will bring partnership excitement on a level you haven’t seen for at least seven years. Delays end in law, education, publishing and travel, real estate, home and family. Scorpio Oct. 23-Nov. 21: A former love or creative, speculative or child-oriented situation could return – perhaps with a bang that launches a new beginning. Delays are over in social, political, organizational, entertainment and planning activities. Also, a quiet general feeling of indecision or slowness, affecting you since last April, dissolves now. Your energy stays nicely high Sunday onward. A wish could come true this week! Your sexual and romantic magnetism are climbing, will surge through December. Chase money Monday/Tuesday. Travel, call people Thursday/Friday. Be domestic, with family Saturday. Sagittarius Nov. 22-Dec. 21: Be ambitious – delays, barriers and mistakes are over. (Indecision lingers, but that can be solved by action. Do what makes you feel cheerful or optimistic – these are always, all life, your signal of the correct choice.) Spend Sunday resting. Tackle the world when your energy and charisma leap upward Monday through Wednesday morning. (Your home situation might interfere with your career for four months – choose career Wednesday, home later. Your family, property, security “start anew” this week in a lucky, freeing way!) Chase money, not friends, Thursday/Friday. Saturday’s lively!
Capricorn Dec. 22-Jan. 19: Delays end in legal, intellectual, far travel, publishing, insurance, cultural and love spheres. Chase one or more of these now, without delay. Delays also end in a more subtle, halfsensed area: within yourself, in your compass, your choices about your future – once again, you can steer your life. (At least until next April, when the spring/ summer brings the same subtle indecision. This pattern will hold for some years. Knowing this can save you wasted effort.) Past weeks mixed lust with career. Now to January, light romance, social flirtations arrive! Grab success Thursday/Friday. Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 18: Delays end in sexual, financial,deephealthandlifestyleareas–makechoices in these during the next 10 days. This decade and next, each spring/summer brings quiet, unannounced delays or hold-ups to your career zone, usually from head office or a government agency. Now these delays lift – until next April. Time to act! A new monetary or earnings picture comes this week. But it’s “back to the future” somehow – a repeat/evolvement of a former situation. A romantic or heightened intellectual interest ebbs – instead, to December, “romance” enters your career zone: take care! Pisces Feb. 19-March 20: The accent remains on relationships, opportunities, negotiation, contracts, agreements and possible clashes. But now the future comes in – delays, indecision and faces from the past ebb, and valid new meetings, opportunities arrive. A wish might come true in this area Wednesday to Friday! More deeply, you finally will begin to seek, plan and visualize your future (and your social contacts) without dithering about the ethics or wisdom of this or that. The rest of 2010 lifts your love/romance prospects – and career luck! (Perhaps suddenly – overnight.) August/September’s “lust” fades. timstephens@shaw.ca • Reading: 416-686-5014
