Dead body was missing sex offender

BY TYLER OLSEN tolsen@chilliwacktimes.com

P

olice say a body found nearly two weeks ago near Progress Way is that of a convicted sex offender who walked away from a Chilliwack halfway house earlier this year.

Dental records have confirmed that the body belongs to Dale Edward Koenders. Police say they have completed their investigation and have found no evidence of foul play.

Grisly discovery by hiker at base of Chilliwack Mountain turns out to be fugitive Dale Koenders Koenders, 46, walked away from his day parole in Chilliwack on July 8. He had previously been convicted of a number of sexual assaults. In 1987 he sexually assaulted a 19-year-old woman at knifepoint in Chemainus, on Vancouver Island.

A Canada-wide warrant was

immediately issued, and in the immediate weeks following his disappearance, police believed Koenders to be living near South Fraser Way in Abbotsford, where several people reported seeing him.

In October, police on Vancouver Island warned the public in the North Cowichan Valley to be

on the lookout for Koenders, who had associates in the area.

But on Nov. 25, a hiker discovered Koenders’s body near a trail at the base of Chilliwack Mountain, near the intersection of Industrial Way and Progress Way. Mounties found identification for Koenders at the scene but were unable to positively identify the remains.

Police have now finished investigating the death and have notified next of kin. Another investigation is ongoing by the B.C. Coroner’s Office.

ust when you thought the living green principles had permeated every aspect of daily life, along comes organically-grown Christmas trees.

The Bees Knees Christmas Trees is a family-owned business growing on two farms in the Columbia Valley without the use of chemicals of any kind.

“We’re basically letting the trees do what they do best,” said owner Michelle Lemieux. “We’ve had one farm for seven years and the other for three or four and we’ve been growing organically with no inputs and no irrigation.”

Now these locally and organically grown Christmas trees are available in Chilliwack for the first time.

The trees are growing on one farm owned by Lemieux’s parents and another by her brother. When the family started to grow they were going to use conventional practices, but quickly turned away when they saw the chemical damage to the environment from pesticides, herbicides and fungicides.

Chris Janzen RCMP Victim Services were called in to help both the driver and the victim’s family, according to police.

While Mounties continue to investigate, Janzen figures that the sun, which was unobscured by clouds on Saturday, may have played a part in the accident.

“I think it was the sun that probably hit [the driver] in the eye or hit the windshield and he just didn’t see her.”

But he also believes that the size of the truck that struck her may have played a part in the women’s death (see letter to the editor on page 9).

“If this was a car, this would not have happened,” he said, noting that the bumper appeared to have struck the woman directly in the head. ◗ RCMP collision reconstruction officers have examined the scene and police have spoken to several witnesses, but anyone else who may have seen the collision is asked to call the RCMP at 604-792-4611.

‘When I kill, it’s a big high for me’ Space crunch meant serial killer had to be bunked with another inmate

BY BRIAN HUTCHINSON National Post

O

ne of Canada’s most heinous and prolific serial killers, Michael Wayne McGray warned he could murder again, even while in prison.

“Just because I’m locked up in segregation doesn’t mean I can’t kill somebody,” he told the National Post’s Graeme Hamilton a decade ago, while sitting inside a federal penitentiary in Renous, N.B. “I have a chance every day.”

Killing, he went on, is “almost a hunger. It’s something I need. I have to have that physical release. When I kill, it’s a big high for me.” The years passed.

Convicted of six murders, McGray was moved from prison to prison. Last year he wound up in B.C. He was most recently moved to a medium-security institution, of all places.

And one morning last week, McGray’s new cellmate in Mountain Institution in Agassiz was found dead.

The RCMP have confirmed that Jeremy Phillips, 33, was murdered.

His body was discovered inside the medium-security cell he shared with McGray in Mountain Institution. The same cell in which the pair had been locked up the previous night.

The Mounties cannot say if McGray is a suspect in their murder investigation; charges have still not been laid. But the police have concluded their work, says Cpl. Dale Carr, media spokesman for the RCMP’s Integrated Homicide Team, and they expect an “information package” will be forwarded early next week to the Criminal Justice Branch of B.C.’s Ministry of Attorney General. The Crown will then decide whether to lay a murder charge. One seems likely.

The Phillips murder has shocked prison authorities, and it has appalled even inmates. Recently, McGray was transferred from maximum-security segregation at Kent Institution, to the less-restrictive confines of Mountain Institution, a medium-security pen next door.

Mountain is described by Correctional Services Canada as “a programfocused institution, where inmates must have steady jobs and take part in constructive leisure activities.”

According to one inmate serving time at Kent, McGray, 45, is a feared convict whose reputation preceded his arrival. He was moved to Kent last year after stints in eastern Canadian prisons. He made an immediate

impression on residents of Kent’s MUnit, a segregated block with singleperson cells inhabited mainly by other convicted killers.

“Everyone walked on egg shells around him,” the inmate said in a phone interview Thursday. “I had heard about the guy and the six murders, but I didn’t know he was stonecold. How he got moved over to Mountain is beyond me. I’ve been trying to get a transfer there for years and I didn’t kill six people.”

Perhaps the only downside to such a transfer might be the living arrangement; most Mountain inmates share a cell. None do in Kent. It’s preferred to have a private cell. Prior to his transfer, the inmate said, McGray made a fuss. He made it clear he did not want a roommate.

Prison authorities had to have heard McGray’s alleged threats, the inmate insisted. Yet he was moved from Kent to the more lax Mountain prison, where three-quarters of its cells have two bunks.

It’s believed that McGray landed in a cell originally meant for one inmate; however, a second bunk was installed due to a space crunch. It was there that McCray met Jeremy Phillips.

According to Corrections Canada and court documents, Phillips was a career criminal serving a six-year, nine-month sentence for aggravated assault and conspiring to commit an indictable offence. After a soured drug deal in March, 2006, he attacked a

ayor Sharon Gaetz and council approved a new policy at Monday’s meeting that they hope will never need to be used.

The whistle blower protection policy was jointly developed by the city and CUPE Local 458, the union that represents city staff, and was approved unanimously by council.

The policy lays out the process by which a city employee may make a formal report of an allegation of serious misconduct.

“This should give some confidence to people that when they bring forward a report it will be treated with confidentiality,” Gaetz told the Times. “They will be protected against retaliation and everyone in our corporate culture will understand that.”

The “serious misconduct” covered in the policy includes, among other things, misappropriation of funds, fraud, embezzlement or the manipulation of accounting records.

man with a baseball bat and fractured his skull.

The assault occurred in Moncton, N.B., and by strange coincidence just a few blocks from the address where, eight years earlier, McGray stabbed to death Joan Hicks-Sparks, 48, and murdered her daughter Nina, 11.

Citing restrictions placed on them by the federal Privacy Act, Corrections Canada officials will say little about their inmate McGray, nor will they discuss why he was moved from prison to prison and then into a medium security institution, where he shared a cell, briefly, with Jeremy Phillips, now deceased.

They will only point to written Corrections Canada policy, a Commissioner’s Directive that outlines“inmate placement criteria” in the event it becomes “necessary to accommodate two inmate in a cell.”

According to the directive, decisions to place one offender with another must be recorded, “along with the results of the assessment.” Even if such a record was made in this case, prison officials would still not release it. The public won’t know on what basis McGray was deemed compatible with Phillips.

He seemed compatible with no one, recalled the inmate who walked the same block with the killer at Kent. “[McGray] showed no patience for anyone at all and people stayed away from him,” he said Thursday.“Someone screwed the pooch bad on this one.”

Raw deal says milk producer

PARADE FRONT ROW SEATS

BY PAUL J. HENDERSON phenderson@chilliwacktimes.com

C

hilliwack dairy farmer Alice Jongerden has been found in contempt of court for her continued distribution of raw milk in violation of a court injunction.

Jongerden says the ruling has put her out of business, but the shareholders still own the herd of Jersey cows, and they are producing today.

“What is produced is the personal property of the people who own the cows, and they are taking possession of their property, despite the ruling putting me out of business,” she told the Times via e-mail.

Jongerden stopped working on Home on the Range because of the contempt charge. Raw milk advocate Michael Schmidt from Ontario stepped in to take over the dairy, which has been renamed Our Milk.

In Ontario, Schmidt was charged with 19 counts related to his distribution of raw milk from his farm in a similar cowshare to Home on the Range. He beat all 19 charges in court last year.

Because Jongerden ceased all production of raw milk products since the judge ordered her to do so in September, she will not face any punishment for the contempt.

“As long as that remains the case, Ms. Jongerden will have purged her contempt and there should be no need for the matter to proceed to consideration of a penalty,” concluded B.C. Supreme Court Justice Nathan Smith.

The distribution of raw, unpasteur ized milk for human consumption is prohibited in B.C. by the Public Health Act. Jo n g e rd e n a n d m a n y people who enjoy raw milk, which they believe is healthier than pasteurized milk, hoped to get around the law by starting a co-op with 20 cows and consuming the raw milk.

In March, a judge agreed w i t h t h e Fra s e r He a l t h Authority that the practice should be stopped and issued an injunction to stop the distribution of raw milk.

Jongerden sought to get around the order by placing a label on the product reading: “Not for human consumption.” But Justice Smith found that was not good enough and Jongerden knew the same people who were consuming the raw milk before the injunction were consuming it after the order was made.

Jongerden said she is disappointed with the ruling because the court did not factor in all the information.

Gravel opponents defending OCP

BY PAUL J. HENDERSON phenderson@chilliwacktimes.com

Y

arrow residents opposed to a proposed gravel mine operation on Vedder Mountain Road say the City of Chilliwack is giving the project the go-ahead behind their backs.

But the city is simply following normal municipal procedure and has not received any rezoning application yet, according to Mayor Sharon Gaetz.

Victor Froese and Walter Raupach, who live near a property owned by Brian Kirkness, owner of Kirkness Pacific Holdings and Western Explosives, have been researching the Kirkness application to build a conveyor system from his gravel quarry on Parmenter Road that would bring rock down the north side of Vedder Mountain to stockpile and load into trucks.

Froese and Raupach have formed the Vedder Mountain Preservation

Group to fight the proposal.

The application is currently in the hands of the provincial government, but would require rezoning by the city because both the Vedder Mountain Road properties are in the city.

Neighbours of the steep properties in Yarrow say excavating the required 127,000 cubic metres of material to create a flat site will be a mining project all its own.

The two properties were sold to Kirkness by the city after being zoned RSV1 (GSA) because of a landslide that destroyed a home in 1999. GSA stands for “geologically sensitive area” and restricts any construction or development on the property.

In a meeting with the Times, Froese outlined his concern that Gaetz and city staff are using semantics to dissuade inquiries into the proposal.

“We are having to defend the official community plan (OCP) because we have lost the confidence in the mayor

and council to defend the OCP.” In a letter dated Aug. 12, Mayor Sharon Gaetz told Raupach the city had not yet “received an application for the zoning of the properties in question.”

This is true but it took a freedom of information request to find out the city did receive a request to comment on the application from the Integrated Land Management Bureau on Feb. 25. The city was asked to check one of four boxes: “approval recommended,” “interests unaffected by proposed use,” “approval recommended subject to conditions” or “approval not recommended.”

At a town hall meeting in Yarrow on Oct. 28, Coun. Ken Huttema told residents “The city commented [to the Ministry of Energy and Mines] that it would not conform to zoning or the OCP so it would have to go through a public consultation process.”

In the response to the province, city staff checked“approval recommended

Gaetz told the Times that no matter the merits of a project, staff would never check the “approval not recommended” box because that would be a political decision.

“The biggest thing for readers and people living in Yarrow to know, is if the province approves it, then after that it comes to the city,” she said. “A process is a process is a process.”

As far as defending the OCP is concerned, Gaetz said it is a “living and breathing document.”

Froese said he and others suspect the application for the conveyor system is just a smokescreen for future residential development. In the application to the Ministry of Energy and Mines, under proposed end land use, “forest land and residential” was entered.

Firefighters kept busy Marijuana plants go up in smoke in Agassiz home

BY TYLER OLSEN tolsen@chilliwacktimes.com

A

gassiz fire chief Wayne Dyer is pointing his finger at a marijuana grow operation after being called to fight a late-night fire on Humphry Road Saturday.

Two dozen firefighters—21 from Agassiz and three from Popkum—battled the blaze, which started just before midnight on Saturday night in a single-family home.

“There was fire coming out everywhere by the time our guys got there,” said Dyer.

After the blaze was extinguished early Sunday morning, a preliminary investigation revealed grow-op equipment. All the plants were destroyed in the fire.

Dyer said the fire appears to have started on the side of the house where power entered the home.

“It could have been a malfunction in the grow-op equipment,” said Dyer. “They probably had some sort of a bypass.”

Dyer said nobody was home at the time of the fire and nobody seems to have been living in the house, although people had been seen at the home earlier that day and dogs were a common sight on the property.

Shed fire considered suspicious Chilliwack firefighters knocked down a shed fire before it could spread to an adjacent carport or house Saturday afternoon in

the 9000 block of Sunset Drive.

Firefighters arrived at the shed around 12:30 p.m. Fire damage was limited to the shed, although the carport and house suffered minor smoke damage.

The shed was used by a two-storey residential house that functioned as a group home for young people, according to fire officials. Only two caregivers were on the site at the time of the fire. They alerted authorities and managed to leave the house with no injuries.

The fire is considered suspicious and the Chilliwack Fire Department and RCMP are investigating the cause.

Fell asleep with smoke and lit couch on fire A Chilliwack man was injured in an early morning fire that started Saturday morning after the man fell asleep while smoking.

Firefighters from two halls responded to a single-family house in the 9600 block of Skrhelam Crescent after an alert neighbour had reported seeing a fire inside the home.

Firefighters entered the smoke-filled home and found the lone occupant on the second floor. He was suffering from smoke inhalation and second-degree burns to one of his legs.

The man was evacuated from the house while firefighters found the fire in a secondfloor couch.

Early indications are that the man fell asleep on the couch while smoking. He awoke to the sound of his smoke alarm and tried to extinguish the fire using an extinguisher and pot of water.

While fire damage was limited to the house, the rest of the building sustained smoke damage.

◗ Opinion

Unintended obfuscation?

W

e like to think we live in an open society where residents are provided with all the information we need.

But sometimes finding out what is going on is like pulling teeth and it takes amateur investigation techniques.

Part of my job is to alternately wade through an information avalanche and search desperately in an information void, but residents shouldn’t have to do this.

Currently some residents in Yarrow have their collective knickers in knots because of a quarry operator’s proposal to build a gravel conveyor belt system down the north face of Vedder Mountain to some properties on Vedder Mountain Road. This project requires various levels of government approval.

Yarrow resident Victor Froese has been on the forefront of the battle to stop this particular project, which could basically turn a large piece of land into a gravel pit in his otherwise bucolic neighbourhood. Froese and some neighbours heard about this proposal by accident, went up to the Parmenter Road quarry and, with the help of a telephoto lens, spotted a sign the owner was required to post on the property, far behind a fence.

The owner didn’t do anything wrong; he did what was required to do even though that meant, in practice, telling no one about the

PAUL J. HENDERSON

SimplyA Musing application. The sign was moved down to the properties in Yarrow that will actually be affected by the proposal and outrage continues to rise.

But even if the provincial government approves the project, the city has to rezone the properties and amend the official community plan—something that triggers a public hearing.

Of course, by the time the proposal comes to city council for a public hearing, it is mostly too late for the public to find out what is really going on.

“A process is a process is a process,” Mayor Sharon Gaetz told me Monday when I suggested the cards were really stacked against the public in this regard.

But Froese and his neighbour Walter Raupach have been determined, and have gone so far as to make freedom of information requests to find out where the project is at.

At the newspaper, we are used to being led down the garden path either with distraction, misinformation or simply with language, so the persistence of

Froese and Raupach is admirable.

As Froese knows, quite often dealing with government bodies is less about getting answers and more about knowing what to ask.

Earlier this year after I spoke to one of the Empress owners about selling the building to the city, I called CEPCO to ask president John Jansen about it.

“Has CEPCO bought the Empress?” I asked.

“No,” he said flatly.

The truth, he reluctantly told me, was that the sale had not quite yet been finalized. If asked if the sun was going to rise the next morning I assume he would have said “No comment.”

The truly cynical might suggest bureaucratic language and processes are intentionally designed to obfuscate and confuse so as to not cause too many questions.

But mostly the information that people want is simply buried layers of bureaucracy and it takes community members like Froese to dig it up. No one is intentionally trying to confuse us at city hall or at the provincial government.

The plan he is opposed to is a long way from seeing the light of day and may never come to city hall for a rezoning.

But if it does, unlike most residents who show up at public hearings wondering what’s going on, he’s got as much or more information than the politicians.

So they’ll have to listen, right?

ith provincial NDP leader Carole James announcing her resignation Monday morning, both parties in the British Columbia legislature now lack leaders.

We couldn’t be happier, we suspect others may feel the same, and we hope our federal politicos take notice.

Here in B.C., the various Liberal leadership hopefuls are launching their campaigns and floating new ideas and new plans. Indeed, with several candidates promising to hike the minimum wage, it seems like real progress is coming our way (although one wonders how certain candidates can brag about their track record and influence in the legislature, while proposing new policies that they didn’t implement when they supposedly had the power). Soon the NDP will do the same.

Hopefully the feds will follow suit.

Stephen Harper is tired. He’s the only leader the Conservative Party has ever had and his stranglehold on the party isn’t conducive to the development of new ideas and new personalities.

Michael Ignatieff is newer to the game; he hasn’t even gone through an election cycle. But it feels like he’s been around forever, chiefly because—despite his academic bona fides—he hasn’t brought any new ideas to the Liberal party.

Jack Layton has been sporting a moustache in Parliament before it was cool.

Even though we doubt a new NDP leader will make much of a difference for that party, Layton’s departure would give upand-coming left wingers a reason to pitch new ideas and test their mettle.

As for Gilles Duceppe, we have no problem with him. We want his separatist ideology to continue to stagnate and soil.

Plus, for a guy who wants to break up this country, he often seems to be the most reasonable fella in Parliament.

But we hope the other three leaders—or their party caucuses, at least—take a cue from the farewells of Gordon Campbell and Carole James.

Ideas and leaders are borne not out of complacency, but out of competition.

Leadership conventions test both politicians and the ideas they espouse, and determine which are fit drive a province or country into the coming years.

We’re about to have a pair in British Columbia. Here’s one bandwagon we hope the federal parties will jump on.

Letters

Get big trucks off road Editor: The letter that I am about to write will undoubtedly be graphic and hard to hear, but it needs to be said. For that reason I hope that you will consider printing my letter/ plea/warning so that others may benefit from what I have just witnessed.

Imagine living to be 80 or 90 years old. Wow, what an accomplishment. Can you image how different the world would look compared to when you were younger, how many things had been invented or discovered and how many near death experiences you had lived through (but you don’t tell the grandkids about some of them, of course).

Now image that on one beautiful, sunny, crisp December day you go out to get some milk from the corner store. You load up your walker, you grab your wallet and you shuffle your way over to the store. You take your time because you don’t have much else to do that day, and besides, you are enjoying the beautiful winter air and glorious scenery.

But today is your last day on earth; you will take your last breath in the next couple of hours. Why? Because as you walked home, slowly scuffing your feet through the crosswalk, a driver failed to notice you there. Your walker becomes wedged underneath as you bounce off of the vehicle and on to the ground.

After 90 years, your life comes to an end and your milk slowly runs down the asphalt and into the drain.

I wish I had made this story up, I really do, but unfortunately this is how I will remember the Christmas of

2010.

Why am I sharing this story with you Chilliwack? Because it is time to wake up and take a cold, hard look at what you are driving. That big monster truck in your driveway (aka: full-size pick-up) that you need may be the reason that someone loses their grandma next Christmas.

Had the driver in this weekend’s accident been driving a normal person vehicle (let’s say a car, minivan, SUV, etc.) we would likely be talking about a broken leg or hip, not a crushed skull.

I urge everyone in Chilliwack to take notice of the amount of giant, oversized, and lifted-up trucks on our city streets. Why? Why do you need to drive these ridiculous machines? Are you all farmers? Do you feel safer in a truck? Does it make you feel important/cool/macho?

If do need a big truck for farming or working, then use it for farming or working, not driving around through the city.

To those of you who choose to drive a big truck: Please walk out to your driveway or garage and stand in front of your vehicle. Where does your

head line up with the truck?

Now go and get your kid, your grandpa, your partner or your daughter to stand in front of the truck and you go sit in the driver’s seat…remember that image.

I hope this letter urges some, even one, of you to stop and look at the additional risk you are placing all of us in by choosing to drive a big truck. Do you really need it?

Do you? Really? I doubt it!

Sports Lunachick offence explodes The Chilliwack Lunachicks showed little rust on the weekend in Aldergrove as they exploded for four goals in each half on route to an 80 demolition of the Legendary 29ers.

Janelle Cavanaugh scored twice and set up five others while Andrea Feaver scored three goals and an assist. KJ Williams and Sandy Champ each scored and assisted on goals and Helena Paul chipped in with a nice head-

Jock scraps er goal in the second half.

Champ had a particularly strong game playing midfield as she started many of the Lunachick attacks.

Penalties prove golden For the second weekend in a row, the U15 Girls Strikers

played in a Cup game. The Strikers won 2-1 on penalties to finish second in their group.

Facing the North Shore Scorpions, who had won both of their games, the Strikers needed to win to have a chance at a berth in the next round.

The Scorpions struck first, as scorpions can, and tallied six minutes into the game on a shot from outside the 18 that sailed just over the outstretched fingers of

Chilliwack keeper Samantha Chand.

This seemed to bring the Strikers to life as they took charge of the field position and ball possession, dominating the play. The Strikers’ strikers managed to break through the North Shore defence on a number occasions, but could not find the back of the net and the first half ended with the visitors leading one to nil.

The second half saw the Chilliwack squad take full

charge of the game. Just two minutes in, a pass sent into the six-yard-box by Rhiannon Dunphy saw a scramble for the ball, that resulted in Haley Mainse tipping back to midfielder, Brett Karcioglu, who in turn, smacked it through a maze of legs into the corner of the net.

Chilliwack continued to press throughout the half but couldn’t capitalize on their chances and the game ended in a 1-1 draw, which meant another penalty kick

situation.

Unlike last week, when the Strikers needed only four shooters, this one was quite different as it took 13 rounds of shooters to determine the outcome of this match.

Chand came through for Chilliwack stopping 11 of the 13 shots she faced and scored one of her own. Emma Haagensen also scored two to help the Strikers outscore the Scorpions 3-2 in the skill competition.

Peewees provincial champs

Football Giants make history with 28-12 win over Coquitlam

T

he Chilliwack Peewee Blue Giants made history Sunday by winning Chilliwack Minor Football’s first-ever peewee provincial championship.

The Giants beat the previously unbeaten Coquitlam Wildcats 28-13 to take home the trophy.

The Giants were led by running back Emilio Pineda, who carried the ball 24 times for 161 yards and a touchdown and was awarded most sportsmanlike player. Game MVP Ethan Mastin had 10 carries for 42 yards and two touchdowns plus a vital onside kick recovery.

In 13 games the Wildcats had allowed only 60 points. They had shut out their last four opponents but on Saturday, they couldn’t stop the Giants’ simple running attack, which was unstoppable behind the capable blocking of Mastin, Gabe Mannes, Wyatt Uzick, Spencer Breslin and receivers Noah Thiessen, Terry Richely and Mason

Hartskamp. Mannes also had eight carries for 76 yards and a touchdown.

The offensive line, including Jake Troyan, Michael Lengert, Devan Voss, Gaven Streifel, Reese Smith, Taj Sidhu, Jaren Lengert, Gibson Hardie and Noah Chand played its best game yet, opening great holes for the Giants backs.

“I am glad that our blockers had their best game the last game of the season,” noted offensive coach Andy Uzick. “It was like wave after wave of blue jerseys clearing a path for Emilio.”

The Wildcats opened the scoring with a long touchdown pass in the second quarter and the Giants responded just before halftime. With the score 7-6 for the Wildcats at the half, head coach Laurie Smith told the Giants to continue their physical play.

“I knew we would wear them down eventually—that Coquitlam team has never been hit that hard. I attribute our physical play to our trip to Nebraska,” said Smith, referring to a seasonopening pair of games in the United States when the Giants ran into two very physical football teams. “Our kids learned what it means to play physical football thanks to the beating we took in August.”

The defence was led by defensive end Michael Lengert, who notched

eight tackles and a sack. Linebacker Uzick had six tackles and a sack while outside linebackers Mannes and Breslin had three tackles each. Corners Evan McCracken and Adam Phillips had another outstanding game containing the outside run, with two tackles each. Linebacker Pineda also had four tackles and a sack while Safety Ethan Mastin recorded three tackles including a touchdown-saving tackle in the fourth quarter on a long pass.

Sureet Pabbi, Jaren Lengert and Jake Troyan applied constant pressure from their defensive line positions, each recording two tackles while defensive halfback Brendan Piegsa almost had an interception and successfully covered the Wildcats deep threat for most of the game.

Linebackers Colin Campbell and Austin Kardux also had a tackle each and were able to apply tremendous pressure on the Wildcats quarterback.

Overall, the defence limited Coquitlam to just 13 points, which was unsual for a team that averaged over 30 points per game.

The 2010 Giants became the first Chilliwack peewee team to win the provincial championship, joining only the 1998 junior bantam Giants and the 2001 and 2009 midget Giants as Chilliwack provincial champions.

Great third period BRUINS, from page 11 Bruins goaltender Lucas Gore for his 24th goal of the year and what would turn out to be the winning goal.

Gore stood his own in the third and gave his team a chance to win with several saves, including a sparkling denial of Jordan Martinook.

But Chilliwack could only muster six shots in the final period as Hay and company coasted to the milestone victory.

The team’s have now split all four of their games this season, with the home squad winning each one.

The Bruins would have liked to recreate their third-period effort from the previous night against Kelowna.

Chilliwack trailed 2-0 heading into the third period despite another strong second stanza. It was teddy bear night at Prospera Centre and the crowd was waiting for a reason to litter the ice with stuffed animals.

Their captain, Brandon Manning, gave them a couple.

Manning’s point shot 1:45 into the third period led to the long-awaited barrage of bears, which will be donated to Chilliwack Community Services. Manning took a

Letters Staples does good deed

LETTERS, from page 9 time, enjoying a few drinks and driving home, has now become a criminal offence.

Unless you have an abundance of money to rent a cab or limo, a person must stay home as the taxi bill is more than your meal or bar tab.

Yes I have driven home over .08 in the last 40 some years that I have had my licence and boy was I careful not to speed, run red lights for fear of getting charged.

I became a more careful

12071175

Letters driver at .08 than I probably was sober. Why? Because a responsible person would do exactly that. I needed my licence to get to work, drive my children to sports, go shopping, etc.

Keith Nerbas Chilliwack

Editor: Yesterday, I attended one of the regular lunch gettogethers for Chilliwack Senior Peer Counsellors, a group I do volunteer work for.

The purpose of the luncheon is to socialize with the other volunteers. During our get-together, we were all given the opportunity to have our name

drawn for a one of a dozen or so prizes. These prizes were donated by the local Staples store.

Some of them were large, some of them small, however, the generosity of the folks at Staples did not escape me. What a wonderful opportunity for a local business to give back to the community. Giving to those people who give many hours of their time, volunteering to help others.

None of us in the Peer Counsellors group expect to

be rewarded for our volunteer work. Our reward is in giving to the people we visit and/or counsel who are either alone, or need some friendship/counselling, etc.

Chilliwack Senior Peer Counsellors is a non-profit organization which provides a free service to local seniors who require either a visitor to enjoy a game of cards or cup of tea, or counselling from a trained volunteer. They are always looking for volunteers, and provide free training (see

their website at www.webcpsc.com, or phone them at 604-793-7204).

Again, my sincere thanks to Staples for recognizing our volunteer efforts.
