Teen girl escapes abduction BY TYLER OLSEN tolsen@chilliwacktimes.com

A

nother potential child predator has struck. For the third time in just over a month, and the fifth time already this year, a man has tried to abduct a girl. The latest incident took place Saturday afternoon near the Vedder River Bridge. A 17-year-old girl was walking alone south of the bridge at about 2 p.m. when a man grabbed her from behind.

RCMP say no evidence to suggest a link to three previous abduction attempts in the past month After breaking free of the man’s grasp, the girl ran to a nearby home and called police. Police are now hoping the public can help with the investigation. RCMP spokesperson Cpl. LeaAnne Dunlop said drivers in the area must have seen the incident. Police are now hoping that those drivers will help them catch the

would-be abductor. The man is described as white, about 40 years old and at least sixfeet tall. He was unshaven, with dark brown hair three to four inches long. He wore a long-sleeve shirt and may be tied to an older green pickup truck seen in the area. “We do know that there is a number of witnesses who saw this that

have not yet spoken to police,” she said. “Their info is going to be very important to us. We need those people to come forward with that information, even if they think the info they have is very, very small.” Dunlop said that there is still no evidence to suggest any of the recent attempted abductions are linked. While the police have received tips

about past incidents, none have led to the identification of any of the men involved. The public should exercise caution when walking in public, said Dunlop. “We obviously are concerned about these incidents,” said Dunlop. “We need members of the community to be aware and be vigilant when they are out in the community.” She said people should not walk alone, nor with devices or headphones that may distract the user from their surroundings.

David Miller was working as a flagger on a Chilliwack road and had stopped traffic when the driver of an SUV told him he would run him over unless he moved out of the way. After being told to EB IRST wait, the man hit the First reported on gas. chilliwacktimes.com “If I hadn’t taken a bit of time to turn around, I probably would have been his hood ornament,” Miller told The Province. The vehicle sideswiped Miller, but the driver was quickly boxed-in by city truck drivers who saw the incident. Miller, meanwhile, sustained minor injuries.

Briefly Rude welcome for rock band Members of Nelson-based band Wassabi Collective left Chilliwack with a bitter taste in their mouths Sunday after being victimized by thieves. After playing a concert at Corky’s Irish Pub, the band retired to their hotel. The next morning, they woke up to find a window broken and several items missing. Police told the band that the van was one of several broken into that night, according to band manager Nicole Seaboyer. Sneakers and a purse with art supplies were stolen. DJ equipment and a bottle of wine in easy reach were left by the picky thieves. The band left Chilliwack that day. But not before posting a message on Facebook and Twitter. “Note to Chilliwack: did you really have to break into our van and bust our window?” The band wrote. “Bad start to the day, but on the bright side it is a beautiful sunny day. Whistler here we come!”

The “Big House” on the old Coqualeetza Site was demolished Monday morning. Long viewed by some as an eyesore, some wanted to see the 1894 house restored.

House no longer a home BY PAUL J. HENDERSON phenderson@chilliwacktimes.com

L

ong in a state of disrepair, the prominent house on Vedder Road on the Sto:lo Nation’s Coqualeetza Site was demolished Monday morning. Built in 1894, the “Big House,” as it is referred by the Coqualeetza Cultural Education Centre’s website, was originally constructed for the principal of the Coqualeetza residential school attended by First Nations from all over B.C. between 1886 and 1939. Many have considered the house an eyesore and at least some Sto:lo have spoken of the bad memories the house provokes given its history as part of the legacy of residential schools. But many others wanted the house restored and refurbished. Leqamel band member Patricia Kelly is one of those. She told the Times she had

proposed to Sto:lo Nation to purchase the house and move it, but she was ignored. “I was actually trying to stop the demolition and make a go of fixing the house up,” Kelly said Monday. “They just saw that old house as a headache. I said, ‘Let me take your headache away from you.’ It’s a beautiful landmark house. The house is fixable.” Kelly conceded it would have taken a lot to fix up, upwards of $100,000, but for her it was worth it. She said she and her partner Lothar Drews had the house assessed by a house moving company that told her it could withstand a short move. The plan was to move the house to what is currently an empty lot behind the Race Trac gas station, just metres from its current location. She said the price to move the house was $45,000 plus GST and her and Drews were willing to pay $100,000 to the Sto:lo Nation for the

building. Kelly said the Sto:lo Nation board decided to demolish the house two months ago. Since she found that out she has been trying to find out who to talk to about her proposal. She said her contacts with Sto:lo Nation president Joe Hall and executive director Willy Hall were fruitless and she does not understand why they would demolish such a historic building, especially since a proposal to purchase it was on the table. “The only piece of the puzzle that didn’t work was dealing with Sto:lo Nation,” she said. Joe Hall told the Times Monday that it was too bad, but Kelly’s proposal came in at “11th hour when the contract was all done.” Hall said they had reports the building was seriously deteriorating and even that some homeless individuals had broken in. He said that more than a decade ago he and others had worked to

convert the building to an interpretive centre, but that the interested parties could not come to an agreement. “At one point Sto:lo Nation offered to cover all the costs, but because of politics it never got off the ground.” The Coqualeetza Cultural Education Centre’s website has a page dedicated to the dream of restoring the “Big House.” After the residential school was shut down, the site became the Coqualeetza Tuberculosis Hospital in 1941 and the house was used by one of the doctors. In 1973, the Coqualeetza Cultural Education Centre began operations in the house. The “dream” of those at the education centre was to restore the house and create a new cultural centre. “The building is in serious condition but is not a hopeless cause,” the website says. “It can be restored and renovated.”

Cabbie attacked, robbed BY TYLER OLSEN tolsen@chilliwacktimes.com

P

olice are searching for two men who assaulted a Chilliwack taxi driver and stole his cab and money early Friday. The driver picked up two men at a home in the 9300 block of Nowell Sreet and were driven to Margaret Avenue. There, the men punched the cab driver in the face, breaking his nose, and demanded money. The driver left the cab, while the men drove off in the taxi. The cab, belonging to Chilliwack Taxi, was later found on Yale Road by police. Dog services were called to the area but were unable to find the men. The 48-year-old cab driver, meanwhile, was taken to hospital and later released. Police hope the public can help identify the suspects in the case. One man was described as white, six-feet tall and between 22 and 25 years old. There was no description of the second man. Paul Johal, manager of Chilliwack Taxi, said the assault was actually one of two incidents Friday in which his drivers were robbed. Another theft took place at 6 a.m.

Friday morning, although Johal said the driver in that robbery was uninjured. “It is scary for the drivers,” Johal told the Times. He said his drivers are vulnerable, as they don’t know, when they pick up customers, who are legit law-abiding citizens and who are thieves. To remedy the situation, the city’s two taxi companies are in discussions to place cameras in cabs. Chilliwack Taxi has also installed a shield in one of the taxis. Hatchet attack A Chilliwack man is in hospital after being hit in the head with a hatchet. The 34-year-old victim is in stable condition. Police say a man broke into the man’s Victoria Avenue home Wednesday night. Police say the men knew each other and the police were not notified of the incident until Thursday night. Police subsequently arrested a 21-yearold Chilliwack man, who faced aggravated assault charges in court Monday. Police also recommended a psychological assessment be conducted.

She’s a courageous ‘work in progress’

Jenelle Schneider/PNG

Cindy Thomsen is the recipient of this year’s Courage to Come Back in the Medical Category. She lost all four limbs and much of the soft tissue of her face due to a rare blood-borne bacteria infection. mouth, lips, eyelashes—fell off. Since then she has learned to walk and dance using the prosthetics on her legs. She learned how to use the hooks on her arms as hands. She got used to being the client and not the home-care worker. Thomsen learned not to back down when she’s stared at. She once cracked up her parents by declaring, “I am from this planet, you know” to one gawker. And she’s learned the truth about

beauty, she says. “My arms and legs do not bother me. I’ve always really accepted them. “The hardest part for me is my face. I’ve had to force myself to get out. Once you do . . . you get to the realization that, ‘I don’t really give a s--t if someone still looks at me.’ “ Her friends and her family see her inner beauty, she says. “They see the person I am underneath, not the outward appearance.”

She considers herself a work in progress and, following numerous surgeries to reconstruct her nose, she will get new lips this summer. Thomsen is a certified peer visitor with the Amputee Coalition of Canada, is part of a Fraser Valley amputee support group and has told her story through the B.C. Burn Fund’s website. Since her amputations, Thomsen has twice contracted life-threatening pneumonia, once when she broke her hip last year and was on a ventilator for five days. Through the tough life lessons she’s remained sober—“gotten mad and gotten on”—and has been forced to be the best she can be. “Push yourself” is her mantra. “If it is possible for me, it is possible for others to just push yourself. Push yourself to your limit because otherwise you are going to be stagnant,” she says. “If you are an ordinary housewife cooking supper, push yourself to try a different recipe. Go beyond your normal day-to-day life. “Life is definitely precious.”

◗ Thomsen is one of six recipients of this year’s Courage to Come Back Awards. The awards recognize those who have overcome great adversity to help others. The recipients will be honoured at a gala dinner atVancouver’s Hyatt Regency Hotel on May 6.

n February 2006, Cindy Thomsen was an average, hard-working mom. Employed as a home-support worker in her hometown of Chilliwack, she was 48, living with her second husband, her son and three stepchildren. Like many moms, her days began with “getting up, cooking breakfast, doing lunches.” She had six years of sobriety under her feet, successfully battling an alcohol addiction that had begun about 18 years before, when she “crossed the invisible line between being a social drinker and being an alcoholic.” It was while in recovery that Thomsen met her second husband but, by 2006, after suffering a workplace injury, he had relapsed into drug and alcohol use. So when Thomsen began feeling extremely tired in early February that year, she put it down to the stresses many parents feel. There were marriage troubles, financial troubles and the daily grind of kids and work to get through. She could never have imagined what was just around the corner. On Feb. 19, 2006, she was so tired she couldn’t leave her bed. She remembers her husband nagging her to go to the hospital and she

insisting on having a bath beforehand. At Chilliwack General Hospital, she remembers being peppered with questions before she fell into a coma. Thomsen was gravely ill. She had somehow contracted an extremely rare strain of pneumonia called pneumococcal septicemia and her body had become septic, essentially poisoning her blood. Making matters much worse was her lack of a spleen, which filters toxins from the blood. It had been removed when she was 18 due to a benign tumour. Doctors filled her with antibiotics to fight the virus and, despite being given just a 10-per-cent chance to make it through the first night, suffering kidney failure and dangerously high fevers, she came out of the coma 10 days later. But the bacterial virus had taken a terrifying toll on her body. Called a “bacterial burn,” it had burned large parts of her face and the end of her legs and arms. They were black, as if torched with fire, and much of the tissue was dead. Thomsen was transferred to Vancouver General Hospital’s burn unit, but, once gangrene set in, the only option was to amputate her legs at mid-calf and her arms just below the elbow. Burned portions of her face—nose,

News Let the paving begin Local business Martens Asphalt Ltd. was selected as the contractor for the 2010 asphalt rehabilitation and shoulder paving works at the April 19 meeting of Chilliwack city council. Martens came in with the low bid of $1.7 million to complete as many as 28 projects over the year. A number of the planned projects, including shoulder paving on Boundary, Knight and Yale roads, are contingent on the city receiving provincial grants for part of the work through the Cycling Infrastructure Partnerships Program. The costliest single project outlined in the staff report is the $196,374.94 for Hope River Road rehabilitation between McSween and Camp River roads. ICBC’s road improvement program will offset some city costs for the work set to be done this year. Sto:lo health MOU The City of Chilliwack has entered into a partnership with Sto:lo Nation and the Fraser Health Authority “to build and strengthen collaborative relationships that work toward the improved health and wellness of aboriginal people.” The memorandum of understanding was signed

Council briefs in a ceremony on March 30 in Abbotsford, and was initiated at the invitation of the Sto:lo Nation. The agreement doesn’t require anything specific be done by the city, but rather the partnership “recognizes formally what’s essentially been happening all along,” according to acting mayor Chuck Stam. Transit agreement A fleet of “new” buses is the primary reason why the municipal share of the Chilliwack Transit System’s 2010/11 annual operating agreement is nearly $170,000 higher than last year’s. Council approved the $2 million agreement at the last meeting. City costs are partially offset by fares and advertising revenue. The staff report provided to council said the anticipated increase is primarily due to the replacement of the current buses that date from 1989 to 1999 with a fleet of 2006 Nova buses and an electronic fare box system. The fleet upgrade will add one extra bus to help ensure service during breakdowns.

Tyson-Stevenson sewer The bylaw to allow for the completion of the sewer project in the TysonStevenson area was given introduction and three readings at the last meeting of council. The $4 million infrastructure project will provide sewer service to replace septic fields for 442 properties in the Stevenson, South Sumas and Tyson areas in Sardis. Federal/provincial grants of $2.5 million paid for most of the project, with the city and property owners footing the rest of the bill. The city’s share of the project is $680,262.57 and the property owners’ is $787,948.98. Each property owner can choose to pay the $1,782.69 prior to end of this year, or an annual $167.69 will be added to the property tax bill each year for 15 years. The city is holding a public meeting at Sardis secondary on May 6 from 7 to 9 p.m. regarding the project. Abbott awarded At the April 19 meeting of Chilliwack city council, Cpl. Bruce Abbott was in attendance to be recognized and receive an award for his years of services on the city’s Transportation Advisory Committee. ◗ Compiled by Paul Henderson

‘Land mine’ not ‘gold mine’

BY PAUL J. HENDERSON phenderson@chilliwacktimes.com

O

pponents of a proposed gravel mine in the Chilliwack River Va l l e y h a v e s t e p p e d u p a campaign to try to stop the mine from getting provincial government approval. Southview Sorting Ltd. has made an application for a sand and gravel aggregate pit at Larson’s Bench, about 25 kilometres up Chilliwack Lake Road. A press release issued Monday by ecoLogic BC said the “huge gravel mine” will impact the river and hurt fishing, kayaking, camping and other tourist activities in the area. “It’s shocking to see they have got to the final stage of approval in a community that is largely unaware of what is taking place,” said Gwen O’Mahony, spokersperson for eco-Logic in a press release. O’Mahony is a former provincial NDP candidate and was recently named the federal NDP candidate for ChilliwackFraser Canyon. “Tourism and recreation businesses along the path of the gravel trucks will undoubtedly suffer from the dust and FLAGGER, from page 1 Police were called and the driver received tickets under the motor vehicle act for disobeying a flagman and for passing on the left. The tickets carry a combined fine of $355. RCMP spokesperson Cpl. Lea-Anne Dunlop said that the incident did not warrant criminal charges. “In order for criminal charges charges to be brought it has to be a fairly serious incident that occurred,” Dunlop told the Times. She noted that the victim declined help from ambulance attendants and said he would go to the hospital later for a routine check. “Whenever we have these incidents occur, it’s very serious,” she said. “We don’t went to see thse things happen. We want people to conduct themselves in a safe way through construction zones but there are charges under the motor vehic-

noise but the big dollars will be lost by businesses in the City of Chilliwack who benefit from tourists and fishermen attracted to the Chilliwack River Valley,” O’Mahony said. Eco-Logic BC officially launched www. stopthegravelpit.com on Monday, which links to a petition against the proposed gravel mine. On the website’s home page, the group says the Fraser Valley Regional District (FVRD) does not support the proposal. In an interview with the Times Monday, FVRD Area E director Dave Lamson said he did not want to flatly oppose any type of application that might create employment, but he does have concerns. “The main concerns are habitat and the amount being taken out,” Lamson said. The FVRD estimated as many as 94 gravel trucks would do round trips each day. “You get all these extra trucks running up and down the road every day, how about recreational users and bicycles and pedestrians?” Lamson asked. “Chilliwack Lake Road is quite narrow and needs to have its shoulders widened.” The application to the Ministry of

Energy, Mines and Petroleum Resources (MEMPR) comes as the region’s Fraser Valley Aggregate Pilot Project (FVAPP) has become stalled. Some have criticized the FVAPP as they say it will entrench the aggregate industry’s access. But if the FVAPP were in effect today, the area in question would be labelled a “red” zone and deemed unsuitable for gravel extraction. The FVRD board has submitted its concerns to the government regarding the need for consultation with residents and First Nations, and questions about traffic. Lamson said he has not heard back as an FVRD director, but he also outlined concerns to the government as a member of the Chilliwack River Action Committee and received an e-mail saying his concerns were being passed on to the Environment Ministry and the Department of Fisheries and Oceans. “There is a concern in the valley,” he said. “We’d prefer that area be left natural.” MEMPR operations manager for the region Maryann Bouffard deferred questions to media relations, but calls were not returned before going to press.

Police not behind flaggers le act for that purpose.” But Andre Mongeon of A&D Flagging Services doesn’t see things that way. Mongeon said Miller refused to be taken to hospital because he didn’t want to leave before a replacement flagger arrived. Mongeon said he later personally drove Miller to the hospital, where the 25-year-old flagger was told to take a week off from work by a doctor. Mongeon said Miller’s wrist is swollen, and that his shoulders and back are hurt to the point of not being able to open the trunk of his car. “We do wish there were other charges brought because the amount that was ticketed—it makes me angry because is that all somebody’s life is worth?” asked Mongeon. “I wish there were stricter laws and I

wish that sometimes the police would come out and reinforce them once in a while. We’re not saying every day or every job but just to get out there and maybe get a radar gun and start showing these people that the police are behind the flaggers because right now, I don’t believe they are.” Mongeon hopes that, by speaking out and talking about the risks flaggers endure, the driving public will show them more caution on roadways. “We all just want to go home at night, just like everyone else,” he said. “Just because our job is outside and we are directing traffic doesn’t mean we wake up every morning thinking, hmmm, how can I inconvenience this driver today. We’re all out there to do a job.”

◗ Opinion

Time to scrap a bad idea A recently proposed piece of legislation to address repeat youth offenders, particularly those engaged in extreme violence, is one of the most common sense proposals to come along in quite some time. Bill-C5, also known as Sebastien’s Law, in recognition of 19-year-old Sebastien Lacasse, who was senselessly murdered at a house party in 2004, would finally hold the most violent youth accountable for their actions. Obviously the bill has a long way to go before it becomes law. Some of its components are controversial and sure to meet with resistance from the usual crew of appeasers and apologists. Among other things, the legislation would provide mechanisms to keep repeat, violent offenders off the street while awaiting trial and strengthen sentencing provisions to permit sentences that are proportionate to the severity of the crime. It would also ensure adult sentences are considered for youth aged 14 and older who commit the most serious offences—including murder and sexual assault. But the least discussed piece of Bill-C-5 is the one I’m particularly pleased to see. It would require courts to consider lifting the publication ban on identifying young offenders convicted of violent offences. The idea of prohibiting the naming of juvenile delinquents was a noble one half a century ago. It was founded on the notion that identifying a young criminal could create a powerful stigma that would make it more difficult

JOHN MARTIN

Crime Matters for the youth to carry on with his life. Consequently, media has long been banned from naming young offenders. But it’s a hopeless concept in the digital age. Anyone with an Internet connection can easily track down the identity of the accused in high-profile cases. The names of youth scooped up by the police and being held in custody are plastered all over Facebook and other social networking sites. The World Wide Web opened up the barn doors quite some time ago and it is futile to think an archaic law can shield the identities of young offenders in this day and age. But more important, why do we even want to do so anymore? There is absolutely no evidence whatsoever that the public identification of young offenders impedes reintegration or rehabilitation. Conversely, we know that shaming and public condemnation are effective tools in addressing youthful criminality—as evidenced by the success of various restorative justice initiatives. It is ludicrous that the ChilliwackTimes can report an elderly woman being swarmed and beaten by three young thugs but must protect their privacy while doing so. I’m not advocating humiliating a

kid for a one-time incident of poor judgment. But there is no basis to continually shield the identity of persistent, repeat offenders who laugh their way in and out of court. All this gag law does is protect the reputation of the offender’s parents. Who knows? Maybe a little bit of public humiliation would smarten up a lot of neglectful, irresponsible parents who don’t have a clue or care what types of shenanigans their kids are getting into at two in the morning. At the very least, the name of a violent offender, regardless of age, should absolutely be published when it would aid in the protection of society. Those who continually insist we must forever protect the identities of young offenders are quick to point out that crime is at an all time low so there’s no need to crack down. To this, I say BS. True; some types of crime have moderately decreased. Overall though, crime is much higher than it was 45 years ago. And one category that is increasing all the time is youth violent offences. The kid glove approach, however well meaning, has not worked. Anyone who suggests otherwise is in denial. Bill-C-5 is a big step in the right direction. Eliminating the carte blanche right to anonymity for repeat, violent youth is thoughtful and responsible social policy. It would be so gratifying to see voters direct their wrath at any Member of Parliament who attempts to block or water down this legislation. ◗ John Martin is a criminologist at the University of the FraserValley.

he new bridge going in at Fraser Highway across the Nicomekl River is not like the one that was built almost half a century ago. Instead of simply driving creosotetreated pilings into the mud, the new bridge must be carefully sited to avoid damaging the stream. Workers will try not to wipe out salmon habitat. The bridge infrastructure will even have plants growing on it. All of this adds to the cost of the bridge, a cost shared by every taxpayer in Chilliwack, and across B.C. and Canada. Over the past 50 or 60 years, governments have slowly changed regulations and laws, almost always after vigorous prodding from active citizens. Where are the results of this flurry of green (well, greener) lawmaking? They’re all around us, visible and invisible at the same time. It’s in the air, which is no longer polluted by leaded gasoline. It’s in the water, which has been protected from a host of pollutants, from PCBs to lead-acid batteries, to paint. When you turn on a taxpayer-subsidized energy-efficient light bulb, you’re helping put off the day when we need another power plant. Governments love to tout roads and bridges, stadiums and new schools. What they can’t advertise as well is the invisible infrastructure that has been put together by activists, streamkeepers, and better regulations. There are few places where one can point and say “There, that’s the result of all the money you spent.” Yet it’s there, in the salmon streams not plowed under, in the stands of trees left undisturbed, in the birdcalls outside your door. It goes without saying that more could have been done, and more must be done in the future, but our green infrastructure is worth a few dollars.

Veterans being given the shaft Editor: Mr. Strahl: I sincerly hope that you are pleased with yourself and the rest of the Conservative Party members. I realize that come December 2010 you will be qualified to receive your overpaid pension, which I might add, has just been increased by 10 per cent at the time of a recession. I, for one, will definitely be pushing for your non-election in the Chilliwack area, which I might add has several thousand retired military members residing. Your church may not be enough to get you elected in the next election. I think that 20 per cent of your paycheque should be allotted to the retired veterans that are living on the poverty line. Also, our socalled “fair” Prime Minister might have a bit of a hard time getting re-elected in his Alberta riding as there are many poverty-torn retired veterans in Calgary alone. Please refrain from sending me your stupid questionnaires, asking the very foolish question “Is The Government On The Right Track,” it is a complete waste of money and time. To show my respect for it, mine goes directly into the recycling box.

No thank you once again for helping to defeat Bill C-210. It is too bad that you are now too old to put on a uniform and do a few tours in Afghanistan to know what it feels like being shot at with bullets, instead of words. I really hope that you can enjoy your retirement years, I am sure that I wouldn’t if I had on my conscience what, hopefully you will have on yours. Peter J. Lawn retired soldier

Private schools save us money Editor: I am surprised that unthinking people feel independent schools steal money from the public school system. The government realizes, however, what a bargain these schools are. Imagine getting a home or a car at half price. That is what our school system is getting. If funding for these schools were withdrawn, immediately the district would need space for another 2,000 students. And don’t forget, the parents who use the independent school system still pay full taxes. Who is subsidizing whom? Al Kosub Chilliwack

Stand up to school bullies Editor: Hello, I’m a student at Mount Slesse Middle School. On April 14 we had a Pink Day or anti-bullying day. This day started when a Grade 9 boy at Central Kings Rural High School in the small community of Cambridge wore a pink polo shirt on his first day of school. Bullies harassed the boy, called him a homosexual for wearing pink and threatened to beat him up. When two Grade 12 students —David Shepherd and Travis Price—heard about this, they went to a nearby discount store and bought 50 pink shirts, including tank tops, to wear to school the next day. They did this because they wanted to stand up for the Grade 9 student, and to send a message that it was not OK to bully. Our school is trying to stop bullying and bring awareness that this is serious and not a joke. But what made this anti-bullying day really perfect was the appearance of These Kids Wear Crowns, Chilliwack’s own rising band. Clearly they thought this assembly was important enough to take time off work, or cancel their commitments they had for that day. These Kids Wear Crowns came to support us with what we are trying to stand up for and that is trying to stop bullying. Rielly Lancaster Leadership 9 Mount Slesse Middle School

PUBLIC NOTICE

Editor: Once in a while, thankfully not that often, you receive and publish a letter from someone who really, really dislikes me. I never take such letters too personally, since a functioning democracy needs both opposition and support to work well. Generally I just take my political lumps and turn the page ever hopeful that other voters will continue to find reason to support me. However, when the letter-writer starts cropping up regularly, and fills his column-inches with screeds of misinformation rather than simply opinion I think it’s necessary to intervene and correct the record. Mr. Hodge wrote that none of our government’s Economic Action Plan was spent in our riding. Well, here are a few projects just in Chilliwack alone: • $3 million for the University of the Fraser Valley to develop the Canada Education Park; • $6.75 million for the construction of the Stò:lo Resource Centre; • Over $100,000 for the Lickman Road- Phase 2 project. Thankfully there are many others projects in Chilliwack and throughout the rest of the riding such as $1.7 million for highway resurfacing through Yale. A more exhaustive list can be found online at www. actionplan.gc.ca. Mr. Hodge can check out what’s been spent in our riding—or any other—on that site, or he could contact my office and we would be happy to help him. On his other complaints, that I enjoyed “my front-row Olympic seats” and spent $100,000 to mail information to voters, I can only repeat the facts. I didn’t go to a single Olympic event, didn’t ask for or receive any free tickets, but sure enjoyed cheering our athletes from the comfort of my living room furniture. Not exactly the front row seats Mr. Hodge imagines. I was fortunate enough to celebrate with thousands of other residents when the Torch Relay stopped in Chilliwack. The quarterly newsletter I send around costs approximately 10 cents per copy. Not free, that’s true, but well worth it if it stimulates political discussion. As always, tech-savvy read-

Get more than you give Medical aide workers see better side of Sierra Leone BY TYLER OLSEN tolsen@chilliwacktimes.com

F

or much of the illinformed world, the mention of Sierra Leone conjures up images of hacked off limbs, child soldiers and blood diamonds. But for a trio of Chilliwack medical workers who recently returned from the West African nation, the country is a sign of hope, progress and humanity. Shandalin Marks, Shannon Lapsley and Adam Green spent a week in the Sierra Leone city of Bo providing first-world medical care to a third-world populace. Marks and Lapsley are both registered nurses while Green is an ambulance paramedic. They travelled to Africa with Lighthouse Medical Missions, a Christian organization that provides medical care in several African nations. In interviews with the Times, Marks, Green and Lapsley all said their medical contributions were repaid many times by the people they treated. “You do get out of them way more than you give,” said Lapsley. Marks said that the sheer happiness of the Sierra Leoneans, despite their poverty, is inspiring and exhilarating. “They have community,” she said. “They don’t have things but they have faith. They’re happy people. “There’s so much happing there. People have so much

The war ended early this decade and in the years since, the country has held fair elections and has drawn praise for its rebuilding efforts. For Marks, this year’s trip was her third to the country. She first visited the country in 2004 and marvels about the progress that has been made. She pointed to the potholed dirt road that once connected Bo to the capital, Freetown, but which now resembles the Trans-Canada Highway. The team provided medical aid and treated outpatient maladies and sicknesses like malaria and typhoid. The trip was Green’s first to the region. “It was incredible,” he said. “The best way to describe this trip is it was empowering because you were going

there to help a nation not as a hand out, but because they wanted our assistance.” Like Marks, he was impressed by the advances being made and by the people of Sierra Leone. “It’s incredible to see that amount of change that’s going on,” he told the Times. He was particularly impressed by Sierra Leonean emigrants who are now returning to rebuild their nation. And as a paramedic who deals with sick and injured patients on a daily basis, Green was impressed with the stoic resolve of the people. “We’re dealing with people who have had a headache for two years,” he said. They were grateful for any medical help they could receive, even if they had to walk for two days to get it. “It was refreshing to see that when we reached out our hand, you would get a smile in return.” Already Green, along with Lapsley, are planning trips to Cameroon later this year and a return visit to Sierra Leone in 2011. “It was a trip that I would do every year,” said Green.

f the scrimmage at the conclusion of the Chilliwack Huskers spring camp is any indication, coach Luke Acheson will have one heck of a defence for the upcoming British Columbia Football Conference season.

“The new players are so excited to be on board,” she said. “The team seemed to gel so well. “The team is just fired up for the season.” Luke Acheson and the rest of the Chilliwack Huskers coaching staff were joined by several guest coaches, including Saskatchewan Roughriders punter Jamie Boreham.

The Green team squeaked out a 7-0 victory in the scrimmage, which concluded two days of high-tempo practices and team-building. Acheson and his crew surveyed some 80 prospective and returning players at the camp. Club vice-president Teri Tamon said she was excited for the new season and the new crop of footballers.

Point finishes special canoe project

BY BILL CLEVERLEY Victoria Times Colonist

A

s he paddled toward the Ross Bay shore in a canoe he had carved, sheer joy was written all over Lt.-Gov. Steven Point’s face. He grinned widely as he punched his fists skyward. After months of carving, the Chilliwack-born Point, B.C.’s first aboriginal lieutenant governor, officially launched a canoe recently from the same beach where he found the log from which it was made. It was a ceremony marked by the story of the canoe and traditional blessings, chants and drumming. “It was a great, great feeling,” Point told reporters of his brief paddle. “When you work so hard on a project like this, to see it come to completion is just an amazing feeling. There’s gratitude and happiness. It’s a great honour to paddle this canoe.” Point carved the canoe with help from celebrated First Nations master carver Chief Tony Hunt, working in an old garage behind Government House. Hunt, who watched Point paddle out about 10 metres and back, said it was a pleasure to work on the project, a reflection of the area’s traditions from 50 to 100 years ago. “To see it finally put in the water was quite emotional. It brings back so many memories of the past,” he said.

Steven Point, Lieutenant Governor of British Columbia, launches the Shxwtitostel canoe down at Ross Bay in Victoria recently. The traditional First Nations ceremony is at the same location where the Lieutenant Governor first found the log from which the canoe is carved. The launch of the shovel-nosed river canoe is the culmination of over 13 months of work by the Lieutenant Governor and renowned artist Chief Tony Hunt. The working river canoe has the shovel nose, eyes, scales and

tail of the legendary monster in Chilliwack’s Cultus Lake, which

Chilliwack

aboriginal people called Slahkum. The sides of the canoe are engraved

with Point’s father’s crest. He named the canoe Shxwtitöstel, which means a safe place to cross the river. “The idea of this unity canoe project is diversity and reconciliation for while I’m lieutenant governor,” Point said. “We’re trying to create a better understanding amongst all people to help them understand that we’re really in the same canoe. No matter where you’re from, we just have to try to paddle together—try to work together. That’s the meaning of that name.” It’s the style of canoe that would have been used by First Nations to hunt in lakes and streams. Using a fire lit in a pit at the bow, the hunter would hide behind a blind and spear fish that were attracted to the light. Point had no difficulty maneuvering the canoe. “I’ve been paddling all my life. My brother brought me up in a canoe, so I’m not afraid of the water,” he said. About 60 people watched and listened to the story of the canoe before watching it set out to sea. Point says he plans to donate the canoe to the province. “It’s going to go on a journey now. We’re giving this to the people of British Columbia. “ We’re presenting it to the government of B.C. as a gift to them from me and Tony.”

Picked up tonnes of garbage

P

articipants in this year’s annual Pegleg Gravel Bar cleanup just before Earth Day helped remove eight tonnes of garbage from the banks of the Fraser River. The April 18 event led by local company Woodtone and Fraser Riverkeeper had a large turnout and was a big success, according to organizers. The cleanup in 2008 resulted in four tonnes of waste recovered while last year’s cleanup removed 11 tonnes. No large items such as vehicles were recovered this year, but the 100 volunteers picked up 3.6 tonnes of garbage and 1.5 tonnes of scrap metal.

In an interview after the event, Woodtone’s Chris Young said, “The Fraser River is a critical part of our eco-system and of our province’s economy. By helping clean it up each year, we can ensure that it continues to provide value to everybody (and everything) using the river.” Other businesses that supported this great cause included: Rotz Disposal, Waste Services Inc., United Tool Rental, Valley Tank, City of Chilliwack, The Preserved Seed, The Chilliwack Water Store, Watson Gloves, Fortin’s Home Hardware, Pro-Fab Manufacturing and Tim Horton’s.

Garage sale raising funds for Yarrow mission group

M

any people think of Mexico only as a tourist destination, but for 27 people fromYarrow, Mexico is also an opportunity to make a difference for one family by building them a home. Members of the Yarrow Alliance Church are heading to San Quintin, Mexico on July 5 to build a small bungalow type home for a family that is currently living in a make-shift shelter. In addition to the home, the volunteers will also will do mission outreach work including making crafts and playing sports and games with the children in the area, serving a lunch for the community, visiting a migrant work camp and, if they raise enough funds, donating items such as tarps, food, sleeping bags and blankets to other needy families. This is the fifth year the group has gone to the northern Baja area of Mexico, an area where thousands of migrant workers have travelled to work in the produce fields with nothing but what they could carry on their backs. “Most of these people have travelled here from southern Mexico with their families to work and they are forced to survive on very little pay,” Yarrow Alliance Pastor Dwayne Toews said. “They are often promised good paying jobs and opportunities and they usually end up living in migrant work camps in deplorable conditions where there is no sewage system, no running water and they buy their water and store it in barrels.” He added that in past trips they noticed a disturbing trend that many of the children don’t go to school because as soon as they can work, they are out in the fields. Children too young to do manual labour, as young as five and six, stay in the camps and take care of the

babies. It has become a desperate cycle of poverty that these people will have a tough time escaping without help. One way to provide these families with a future is to get them out of the camps and provide them a home where they can safely raise their children. Without the burden of always worrying or trying to scrape together materials and money for proper shelter, the hope is that families may be able to afford to send their children to school and feel safer and more secure and be healthier. The homes are about 20- by 24-foot woodframed buildings with a concrete foundation and floors. The size of the family and how much money the Yarrow group raises will also dictate any extras the Mexican family may be able to receive such as a separate kitchen, a new latrine, solar panels and household items over and above the bare necessities. “Every year when we go down we are surprised at what conditions they are living in. Last year the family was living in a shack built from wire, wood and cardboard,” said Scott Block, one of the organizers for this year’s trip. ◗While the group has been actively fundraising since before Christmas, their annual Garage Sale fundraiser will be held on May 1 at the Yarrow Alliance Church. The huge sale from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. will also include a car wash, show and shine, pancake breakfast and barbecue lunch. All of the funds raised will go to building and outfitting the house. If you have items you’d like to donate you can drop them off at the Yarrow Alliance Church 42479 Yarrow Central Rd., from April 27 to April 30 between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m.

Paddle for wild salmon lands at Cheam Beach

R

esearcher and wild salmon advocate Alexandra Morton’s campaign to protect the species will include a 10day Paddle for Wild Salmon down the Fraser River, starting April 28 in Hope at 9 a.m. The voyage will end in Sidney on May 7, when the paddlers will meet up with Morton, and deliver their message and petitions to Victoria the next day. Mo r t o n i s a b i o l o g i s t w h o w a n t s West Coast fish farms closed. She has documented the negative effects of the sea lice gauntlet formed by fish farms, and is walking from the north end of Vancouver Island to Sidney to raise awareness of the issue. In a significant development, her lawsuit against fish farm company Marine Harvest Canada Inc. was taken up by Ottawa last week. Supporter Elena Edwards of Mission points out that wild salmon have decreased at an alarming rate on the Fraser, which last year was number four on B.C.’s endangered rivers list, due in part to waste from industrial, agricultural and residential development in the region. “It is for these reasons that the Paddle for Wild Salmon emerged as a means to raise awareness to the plight of the wild salmon, to remind people who live along the river that we must care for this incredible river,

not contaminate it, and to encourage people to support Alexandra Morton’s brave quest to say to fish farms, ‘Get Out!’, ” said Edwards. Chief Ron John of Chawathil will be present at the Hope launch on April 28, with Sto:lo Nation members. That night, the Cheam Indian Band will provide night of entertainment with songs, dancers and stories by the river on Cheam Beach and in their longhouse. On April 29, the paddlers will be sent off with a salmon ceremony, and will make their next stop at Island 22. They are expected to land at the Mission boat launch later that day, at about 5:30 p.m., where they will be greeted by people with signed petitions and the Mission RCMP boat. The paddlers are asking communities along the Fraser River to show their support by signing and circulating the petition asking for the removal of fish farms, and to show up with the signed petition at one of the many stopping points along the river. On May 7, the paddlers plan to cross the Strait of Georgia with a support boat provided by Conservative MP John Cummins and Sto:lo advocate Ernie Crey, who will cross the strait with the paddlers. All stops along the river ,as well as places where other experienced paddlers can join the paddle, can be found on the Facebook events page Fraser River Paddle for Wild Salmon, Foolish April Fish website, and Salmon are Sacred website. ◗ To download or sign a petiton, or more on Morton’s campaign, see salmonaresacred. org.

Obituaries SONMOR, John ‘Jack’ Barry

Born Dec 4, 1950 passed away peacefully after his battle with cancer on April 6th, 2010 with his family by his side and listening to his favorite music. Jack was born in Saskatoon, SK., predeceased by his beloved dog Jett. Jack is survived by his loving mother Lillian, father Fredrick (Gladys), wife Linda, brother Fred (favorite sister-in-law Brigitte), sister Lynn, son Jonathan, daughters Cher & Kim, son in-laws Crosby & O.J., grandsons (Phoenix, Samuel, Pharoah, Thorin, Greye & Hayden), brother & sister in-laws, nieces & nephews - and special people he has both renewed or gained friendships with throughout his journey including friends Mary, Carmen, Thuriasamy, Erin, Al & Olive. Over the years, Jack also had a special extended family from B.C. to Saskatchewan that in his own words stated ‘I feel bad that there are too many that I am unable to reach that have helped me with their kindness & I have too little time - I just want them all to know how much I appreciate them.’ Jack was a social person who thoroughly enjoyed keeping active throughout his life up to his very last days. Jack had a real love for dogs, which started as a young child, other interests and passions that Jack had were running, rock climbing & repelling, boxing, chess, wood carving, chocolate and more importantly his great love & devotion towards his dear mother (who’s nightly talks lended much support to Jack during his final days). Jack was known by most for his humour, shock value, sincerity & honesty in telling of his own life stories. Jack had a niche for meeting friends easily and on every occasion possible as he was just easy to like & easier to love. In lieu of flowers a donation in memory of Jack could be made to the BC Cancer Agency, your local shelter or the SPCA. Jack would encourage those unable to donate, to hold your mother/children close to your heart, reach out to those you love, & to ensure you volunteer to assist those less fortunate. Great thoughts of appreciation to Valleyhaven Guest House exceptional staff & nurses (special thanks to nurse Corinne), Dr.Moseaco & the Boyle McCauley Health Centre of Edmonton (for their compassion & empathy), Hospice workers (Leadyl & Matthew), Dr.Bull, Tom M., Andrea M., Cindy N., Cathy C., Pastor Martin & Wayne Newman. Jack’s family will be forever grateful for their kindness & those that assisted to allow Jack to feel at home & die with dignity. A celebration of life will take place Father’s Day weekend for Jack’s immediate family & close friends as per his expressed wishes for an outdoor gathering to enjoy the first days of summer with laughter and great stories. - ‘ I know where I’m going and I know the truth, and I don’t have to be what you want me to be. I’m free to be what I want. ‘ - Muhammad Ali. We love you dad xoxo.

YOUNG, Robert (Bob) John February 10, 1923 ~ April 19, 2010

Robert (Bob) John Young of 230 Savage Farm Dr., Ithaca, NY passed away with his family around him on April 19, 2010. Bob is survived by his wife of nearly sixty years, Greta, his son Kenneth and his wife Madeline, of Ithaca, and his daughter Donna and her husband Don, of Binghamton. Also, his sisters Dorothy Crockatt and family, Toronto and Jean Mitchell and family, Chilliwack, BC, and brothers-in-law, Allan Milne and family, and Wesley Milne, Victoria, BC. Bob was born in Calgary, Alberta, Canada February 10, 1923. He was the son of Kate and Harold Young, growing up on a dairy farm in Chilliwack, BC, Canada, becoming a self-made horseman working the farm. After graduating from High School he enlisted in the Royal Canadian Air Force, first as an engine mechanic and later as a Radio Navigator. He was discharged in 1945 with the rank of Flying Officer. After the war, he attended the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, BC, graduating with a BSA honors in 1950, earning the Wilfred Sader Gold Medal for being first in his class. In the summer of 1950, Bob married Greta Milne and they moved east to Ithaca NY where Bob enrolled in the graduate school at Cornell University, receiving his PhD in 1953. After graduating, they moved to Toronto, ON, Canada where Bob had a research position at the Banting and Best Department of Medical Research at the University of Toronto. In 1956, the family, now four in number, moved to Glenview, Illinois where Bob had a research position with International Minerals and Chemical Corporation. Two years later they moved to Cincinnati, Ohio, where Bob was employed in the research division of the Proctor and Gamble Co. In early 1960, Bob was offered a faculty position in the College of Agriculture at Cornell University and Ithaca became their permanent home for the next 50 years. Bob was appointed Chairman of the Department of Poultry Science in 1965 and twelve years later, he was made Chairman of the Department of Animal Science, a position he held until his retirement in 1983. He was also appointed Associate Director of Research and Associate Dean of Agriculture each for one year after his retirement. During his entire academic career, he was always the advocate of the students, above all else. In 2008, Bob was presented with the Distinguished Alumni Award from UBC for outstanding service. Bob was an avid Cornell hockey and basketball fan and enjoyed woodworking, sailing and gardening in his spare time. The programs of the College plus frequent trips to British Columbia gave the family many opportunities to travel. These included a sabbatical leave in Greece and Sweden, and Vancouver, BC, plus visits to friends in Holland, Germany, Switzerland and England and heading up two tours of Kenya, Africa. Professional assignments abroad took Bob to Argentina, Brazil, Japan and China. There will be no calling hours. A memorial service will be held at Kendal of Ithaca on May 1 at 2:00pm. In lieu of flowers, contributions can be made to the charity of choice.
