House fire started around meter A trust fund has been set up to help the Mission family

MISSION CELEBRATES

BY ADRIAN MACNAIR Mission Record

A fire that originated around a smart meter has left two Mission families homeless and their possessions destroyed, but BC Hydro and the fire chief say the blaze was not caused by the meter. Burdock Street’s Trish Regan says the fire started June 15, a day after the new meter was installed. She was at work when the installer came to the home, and Trish’s daughter Kylina said the technician tried to install it three different ways before he left. “In terms of the fire, we can definitely confirm the origin of the fire. The burn patterns all originate where the housing for the smart meter sits. And quite clearly it’s not the smart meter,” said Mission Fire/Rescue Chief Ian Fitzpatrick. Fiona Taylor, BC Hydro project officer for the Smart Metering program, said the company replaces 35,000-45,000 meters every year of both old and smart meters, and have found what is termed “meter base failures” in 0.05 per cent of cases, which hydro claims is the cause of the Mission fire. The base is a homeowner asset usually installed by the original developer of the home to which an electricity company can connect, she explained. “We really feel for the customer. I mean, that’s a difficult situation, it’s pretty horrific, so we certainly appreciate that this is a stressful time,” said Taylor. Keith Anderson, BC Hydro’s director of deployment of the Smart Metering program, said the BC

Revellers came out in droves Sunday for the annual Canada Day event at Fraser River Heritage Park. PAGE 3

Hydro worker who installed the meter is considered a quality and experienced technician. He said the technician checked for any faulty wiring or other problems during installation but found none. Of the 1.35 million meters BC Hydro has installed, Anderson said technicians have discovered about 1,000 meter base failures. Of those, 11 were considered “significant electrical incidents,” and three resulted in smoke or fires, however the technician was on the scene during each of those times. Anderson said this is the first time a fire has started from a meter base failure after a smart meter install. The night of the fire, Trish was sleeping and Kylina was watching TV when she thought she heard firecrackers. She went outside and saw a fire creeping up the wall. Trish tried to put the fire out with

a garden hose, but the heat was too intense. The fire spread from the wall to the cars and the gasoline further fueled the flames. She wanted to move her cars from the side of the house but by that time electrical wires had fallen over the vehicles. She lost a Ford F-150, Jeep Grand Cherokee and a 1976 Land Cruiser as a result. The fire then moved to the garage and the attic, and eventually spread to her neighbours’ home, occupied by five people. At the height of the inferno, the flames were 65 feet high and spectators could feel the heat from 14 Avenue. The blow is doubly difficult for Trish, who lost her husband Kenneth two-and-a-half years ago in a car accident. She’s been living on the life insurance ever since, with her 20-year-old daughter and 18-year-old son, while making

extra money as a house and office cleaner. But her equipment was destroyed and she is now unable to work. Trish is now renting a house for $2,500 a month that’s being paid for by her insurance company. “I’ve been waiting patiently for BC Hydro to contact me and they haven’t.” Hydro’s Taylor said an employee checked to ensure the families were safe and put up in a hotel, but have had to wait for the investigation to end before contacting anyone. “All we can do is provide facts and provide the expertise that comes from our day jobs, which is providing safe and secure electricity to our customers,” said Taylor. A trust fund has been set up for the Regan family at Canada Trust. You can contact the family through the “Regan Family Fire Support” page on Facebook.

First glimpse at new federal riding for Mission BY ADRIAN MACNAIR Mission Record

The Federal Electoral Boundaries Commission for B.C. has redrawn the proposed federal riding for Mission-Matsqui, which will drop Pitt Meadows and most of Maple Ridge, and expand south into Abbotsford. The new boundaries would run from 240 Street in Maple Ridge, north to Alouette and Stave Lakes, then south to encompass Mission,

continuing into Abbotsford. Most of northern Abbotsford would be in the riding, including Sumas Mountain east from the Vedder River to Atkinson Road, Lower Sumas Mountain Road, north along Sumas Way, then continuing west along McClure Road to Mt. Lehman Road. The remainder of the city would be linked with Abbotsford-Sumas in another electoral riding. The population for

Mission-Matsqui is estimated to be 100,414, roughly within the ideal limit of 105,000 people per riding. These electoral ridings are draft proposals, which the public can now comment on and provide feedback during public hearings slated for fall. After the public’s views are considered, the commission will submit a report to the House of Commons, where MPs will provide feedback that will then be reviewed

by a parliamentary committee. A final report is then sent to the Chief Electoral Officer of Canada for preparation of a document called a representation order. This last step allows the new electoral map to be officially implemented, and used at the first general election called at least seven months after the order becomes law, likely in time for the 2015 general election. If an election is called be-

fore one year following adoption, the old system would be used. Every decade, Canada’s electoral boundaries are reviewed and redrawn to account for migration and population growth based on census figures. B.C. is set to get six new ridings as the boundaries are redrawn, with the number of MPs rising to 42 from 36. To learn more visit www.federal-redistribution.ca.

Seven derelict ships secured BY MONIQUE TAMMINGA Black Press

Join us for

Appreciation Day

OPEN HOUSE July 13th, 12pm to 3pM 34033 Lougheed Hwy

604-826-6914

A piling company hired by the province worked through the night on Thursday and into Friday morning to secure the former Queen of Sidney ferry and six other derelict ships moored at a Langley man’s waterfront property in Mission. Bridges, power transmission lines and the Fort Langley house boating community along the Fraser River were at risk if the seven rundown ships were to be pulled loose by floodwaters and swept downstream. B.C.’s Environment Minister, Terry Lake, intervened last Tuesday, issuing an emergency declaration to use special powers to deal with the improperly secured vessels, which include the dilapidated ferry. A marine expert had determined the vessels were at risk of breaking free of their moorings due to their poor condition, combined with high river flows and flood debris that could put more strain on mooring lines. The ferry and six other ships

are owned by Aldergrove resident Gerald Tapp and his brother Bob. The ferry was recently filmed for an episode of Canadian Pickers. Inside the ferry, the owners have filled the various decks with classic cars. “Five piles were driven on the forward part of the Queen of Sidney and on the other vessels ahead of her and on the river bank,” said Capt. Philip Nelson, who was contracted by the province to oversee the emergency job. “The five piles driven onto the ferry and on the river banks are 70 to 100 feet in length and were driven 35 feet into the riverbed and through two hard layers of bed rock, so they are very secure,” said Nelson. “We also attached steel mooring lines to the ferry, so I am very confident that the Queen of Sidney and the other vessels can withstand the rigours of this year’s freshet.” Nelson said they put new lines on the other vessels to reinforce the mooring already there. “So at this point in time we don’t see any difficulties with the Queen

of Sidney,” said Nelson. Environmental emergency response officer Ken Meeks said the one-in-40-year flood underway, the heavy debris already moving downstream and the additional vessels all tethered to the Queen of Sidney made the situation more dangerous than in past years. The seven vessels together weigh more than 7,000 tonnes, he said. Meeks said the province aims to recover costs of the emergency response from the Tapps. They also pose an environmental risk because of the potential presence of hazardous materials, physical damage to downstream habitat and the risk of secondary spills if one of the derelict ships hit another vessel in the river. Last summer, a BC Hydro transmission tower between Surrey and Coquitlam fell into the river, causing extensive power outages and forcing the closure of the Port Mann Bridge and other roads where highvoltage lines dangled dangerously close to cars. - with files from Jeff Nagel

PG murder victim had local connections YOUR EYES BY VIKKI HOPES Black Press

A man who was murdered in Prince George on Monday (June 23) has a criminal history mainly based in Mission and Abbotsford. Jordan Christian Reno, 22, was found dead on a property in the 4100 block of Knight Crescent in Prince George. An autopsy performed June 26 determined the cause of death, which has not been released, and the matter was deemed a homicide. Prince George RCMP said they believe this was a targeted incident, but would release no further details. The provincial court database indicates that Reno has a list of charges and convictions in Abbotsford and Mission from 2008 to 2011, as

w well as ffiles from F Fort St. JJohn in 22009. He also appeared Reno to have strong social connections in the Fraser Valley. Many of his “friends” listed on his Facebook profile are from Abbotsford, Mission and Chilliwack. Reno’s convictions in Mission run from 2008 to 2010 and include theft, break-and-enter, assaulting a police officer, resisting arrest, and numerous breaches of his parole and bail conditions. He was also convicted in January 2011 of a break-and-enter in Abbotsford. Reno’s other convictions — break-and-enter, resisting arrest and breaching his bail — oc-

curred in Fort St. John in October 2009. Most recently, Reno was in prison in Prince George, awaiting trial along with four other men in relation to the assault of 24 people at a beach party in the summer of 2010. Each of the men received 40 charges, including pointing a firearm, assault with a weapon, uttering threats, and assault causing bodily harm. Among the weapons they were accused of using were a handgun, baseball bats and two-

by-fours. Four of the men were acquitted, including Reno, who was released from jail in May. A mistrial was declared for the fifth man.

Anyone with information about Reno or his murder is asked to call the Prince George RCMP at 250-561-3300 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800222-8477.

Teachers vote to ratify contract Members of the B.C. Teachers’ Federation have ratified a two-year agreement with B.C.’s school districts by a 75 per cent margin. Turnout for the vote was only 52 per cent, with 21,044 teachers casting ballots. In Mission, local teachers’ union president Mark Bradshaw said that 177 out of 323 educators voted last week. The agreement is for two years, one of which has passed with a lengthy work-to-rule campaign

OPINION

Published and printed by Black Press Ltd. at Mission at 33047 First Ave., V2V 1G2

Good to be cautious Apples have a long-standing reputation as a healthy food. An apple a day keeps the doctor away, as Benjamin Franklin is said to have put it. But the Frankenstein complex has an equally long, if not longer history. That’s the nickname given to the fear that man’s messing around with the building blocks of life will eventually create something that will destroy humanity. Bring the two together and you’ve got a problem. It’s hard to blame the B.C. Fruit Growers for their concern that the introduction of a genetically modified apple could ruin the reputation of B.C.’s Okanagan as a source of high-quality healthy fruit. And while Neal Carter, whose company has used gene modification to create a non-browning apple, certainly has his eye on the commercial return while extolling the benefits of his Arctic apples, there is one benefit that stands out. Take away the browning, and the vitamins and anti-oxidants stay. So, on one hand, we have growers wanting to preserve the reputation of their product as a healthy food and on the other we have an apple that retains its nutritional value for longer. Anyone see some common ground here? Consider too that growers have been practising genetic modification for centuries, albeit by the much slower selection and grafting methods. Caution is a good thing, especially when it comes to monkeying with genes. Extensive testing, too, is a good thing. But allowing caution to grow into an unreasoning fear is never a good thing. If turning off an enzyme can preserve the best aspects of an apple, it shouldn’t be thrown away on account of ancient fear. - Kelowna Capital News

Rough seas ahead for BC Ferries B C Ferries has begun its summer schedule, ramping up sailings for the vacation season that is crucial to the fleet’s bottom line. It’s been rough sailing for BC Ferries so far this year. The corporation released its financial results in June, reporting a net loss of $16.5 million, compared to net earnings of $3.8 million the previous year. Last year’s earnings were boosted by the sale of the former corporate headquarters for $9.3 million, preventing a loss there as well. In the fiscal year that ended March 31, vehicle traffic was down 3.5 per cent and walkon passengers were down 2.8 per cent. As a result, BC Ferries is forecasting a “small loss” for this year as well. The spring “Coast Saver” sale has just ended. That’s a 37-per-cent discount offered Fridays through Mondays, May 25 to June 25 on the major runs from the mainland to Victoria and Nanaimo. The discounts allowed a foot passenger to cross for $9.95 and a car and driver for $39.95. I asked BC Ferries CEO

Mike Corrigan last week how the sale went. He didn’t have final figures yet, but he allowed that the boost in traffic was “marginal.” It’s the second year that the spring sale has been offered over weekends, when people are more likely to travel. But instead of generating additional trips, Corrigan said the main effect has been to shift traffic from midweek to weekends. One of the primary reasons for this spring’s poor performance is the lousy weather that kept people at home. Gasoline To at $1.40 a litre is another big one. Hotels and other tourism services tell the same story. Here’s another problem: student traffic on the ferries was down by a third this spring, because teachers cancelled field trips as part of their lengthy work-to-rule campaign. The simplistic political debate about ferry service starts

and ends with rising fares, with occasional fits of temper over executive salaries, and ignores the other factors. Just cut the fares and increase the taxpayer subsidy, say the NDP and their local echo chambers. Of course, taxpayers are already pitching in an extra $80 million this year, bringing the subsidy to the ferries close to $200 million. That’s how Transportation Minister Blair Lekstrom sweetened the pot as he unveiled new powers for B.C. Ferry Commissioner Gord Macatee to set service levels m as well as regulate fares. Macatee’s task now is to travel the coast and endure the demands of island dwellers who want the rest of us to subsidize their splendid isolation. The proposition for them will boil down to this: You can pay more or you can have fewer sailings. And where the boat is a third full, you will have fewer sailings.

B.C. Views

Fletcher

This consultation period is an opportunity to ask some hard questions. For instance, does Saltspring Island really need three ferry terminals? And why is there no passenger-only service? Macatee’s term as commissioner started with a detailed review last year that pointed to some other ways to save serious money. But CEO Corrigan says there are no quick fixes. FortisBC has offered an $11 million incentive for conversion of marine vessels to natural gas, which would give the fleet significant relief from spiraling fuel costs. But a ferry conversion would take six months or more, and another vessel would be needed in the meantime. Another promising suggestion is overhauling the ferry reservation service, making reservations free and charging extra for those who just show up. Corrigan says a computer reservation overhaul is underway, but it will take three years.

YOUR VIEWS Signs are not a deterrent Editor, The Record: We live in the northwest sector of Hurd Street and Holiday Avenue and have had a four-legged visitor to our door the last few weeks. The first time it was wandering down our front walkway past the house around 5 a.m., the time my wife goes out the door to jump into her car to go down to the train. The next time was around 9:30 a.m. and it came up and looked in the front window. It took off up the street once the dog went berserk. Young kids are usually playing out in the street at this time of day. Around 5:30 p.m. last Friday, I was standing on my front porch,

and lo and behold, sauntering down the road coming from Hurd was the bear again. It rounded the corner and disappeared into the yard four doors up the street. Another night, about 9:30, it came into the backyard, looked into our bedroom window, then wandered over to the deck at the opposite end of house. When I went down to the dining room, all the lights were on, and I could not see any bear, then it quietly appeared from around the corner looking in the patio door. I backed off, then went into the family room, and promptly called 911, who in turn gave me the conservation number to call. They

just simply said they would have their local officers look into this. There appears to be no concern for the citizens of Mission in this populated area. What if someone was walking home from an outing somewhere tonight? What if the kids were out playing on their bicycles? What is it going to take to get someone off their butt in Mission to deal with the wildlife that comes calling? Bear Aware signs are OK to alert people to be diligent, but they are not a deterrent. Does someone’s child have to be mauled? Hello out there, is anyone listening? Ron Wilkes Mission

We’re invading bears’ territory Editor, The Record: An open letter to council: I came home from work recently to find my empty waste container labeled with a finger-pointing sticker telling me I have attracted bears to my home. This was likely placed by someone as qualified in wildlife management and understanding as I am in nuclear physics. I should add this sticker was stating among other things that the waste should be in a secure container. This sticker was placed upon a container the district has provided

to me. This container was placed at curbside at the request of the same district in front of the home where such containers have been placed for over 50 years. I want to see the bears live happy and healthy in the woods around my home, but that is the part of the equation not being discussed. The woods are being cut down to accommodate the voracious appetite of tax hungry-councils and real estate speculators who believe they have not enough income unless they plow under another 10 acres

Brent Caughy Mission

Editor, The Record: While I applaud the contribution of our MLA Randy Hawes at resolving the traffic problems on First Avenue, reducing the speed limit to 30 km/h is only half a solution. North Railway Avenue is a part of the Mission downtown business area, therefore, should have a 30 km/h limit as well. Driving North Railway Avenue from the Bellevue to the corner of Horne Street and Railway at 50 km/h takes an average of 46 seconds. Covering the same course at 30 km/h took 112 seconds. Life as we know it will not come to an end by adding 66 seconds. Businesses on North Railway Avenue should be able to operate on equal footing. A reduction to 30 km/h would allow people the time to see the businesses that are there with more than a side glance and not stopping for fear of getting pushed along by a

large truck barrelling down on them. Regarding the two-way traffic proposal, we cannot go back to the future. Traffic volumes, new traffic lighting costs and many other adjustments make the existing oneway streets the most cost-effective arrangement. North Railway Avenue is offered as a sacrifice to two-way traffic, regardless of the impact on the existing and future businesses. If the city and province wants business growth on North Railway Avenue, speed limit reduction should be implemented. Dropping limits on both First and North Railway will only require a change in signage, and for a time, additional indicators of the changes, as well as increased enforcement. If the budget allows, perhaps a traffic camera installation midway might slow things down too. Frank Tonge Mission

The planned Experience The Fraser trail network â€” slated to run through Mission â€” and other pledged upgrades to regional parks may be in jeopardy because Metro Vancouver is too cash-strapped to pursue them all. The regional district board has been advised by staff to declare an 18month moratorium on the acquisition of new parkland while they reconsider how to finance the regional parks system and keep up with the demands of a growing population. Surrey Coun. Barbara Steele said thereâ€™s tremendous pressure to develop the Experience the Fraser trails along the length of the Fraser River in the Lower Mainland and Fraser Valley. â€œThere are huge expectations from Hope to Squamish and beyond and now thereâ€™s no money to do it,â€? she said after Metroâ€™s environment and parks commit-

tee was briefed on how park demands have outstripped funding. â€œWe canâ€™t do the Experience The Fraser with Metro Vancouver leading the way if Metro Vancouver doesnâ€™t have any money.â€? The challenge is Metro allocates just $3.7 million a year to buy new parkland, an amount that has remained almost unchanged for 20 years while the price of real estate has soared dramatically. Metro officials have a list of 210 target properties worth an estimated $600 million theyâ€™d like to buy that would add 3,000 hectares of new parks or major expansions to existing parks. They have a second list of 341 other parcels considered key missing pieces to existing parks that span 2,500 hectares and are worth an estimated $500 million. Spread out over 30 years, that $1.1 billion in proposed acquisitions would require an annual acquisition fund of $37 million a year â€” 10 times the current amount.

But officials fear a jump in interest rates coupled with older owners opting to sell may soon result in a surge of target properties going on the market, increasing the temptation to buy parkland lest it be snapped up for development. Gaetan Royer, Metroâ€™s manager in charge of planning, environment and parks, said parks acquisition is severely underfunded, forcing the region to either downsize its plan or find more money. â€œAt this rate of spending itâ€™s going to take 300 years to get to where the plan says weâ€™re going to be in 30 years,â€? he said. Royer recommended staff continue work to buy some missing pieces for existing parks from the second list, but shelve all other acquisitions until a major review is finished that prioritizes target properties. Metroâ€™s environment and parks committee hasnâ€™t yet approved the proposed moratorium â€“ directors said they need more time to consider the implications.

An outdoor summer camp for youth interested in hunting and outdoor skills has been taking place at Mission District Rod and Gun Club this week. The day camp has been sold out for weeks, according to Gregg Rogers, MDRGCâ€™s director of youth and family services, with 21 kids ranging in age from 12 to 16 years old attending. â€œItâ€™s part and parcel of what is a rapidly growing segment [women and children] of hunting,â€? he said. Demand has been growing nationally for more programs that include the

whole family, but the local club has been hosting these day camps for more than 20 years. The week-long event imparts basic outdoor survival skills, and allows attendees to take the government-certified Conservation Outdoor Recreation Education (CORE) course and Canadian Firearms Safety Course. While the youth get certified, it doesnâ€™t kick in until they turn 18. Map and compass training, a hatchery tour and archery round out the campâ€™s offerings. Parents are encouraged to come watch, and for more information, visit www.missionrodandgun.com.

Communities in Bloom Communities Bert Pulles, The Mole in Bloom Canada Day in Mission, Man, aka TM Mole Control, has lived and worked in Mission for 25 years. He and wife Gracey believe Mission to be â€œâ€Śthe H th best place to live.â€? For years, The Mole Man has given back to the community in which he has so much pride. Communities in Bloom, therefore, has provided an excellent conduit for his volunteer spirit. As Co-Chair and then Chair of the Communities in Bloom Society, Bert has been the power behind the groupâ€™s fund raising and special project activities.

Stewart

Bert has also made strong connections within the gardening community and has appeared on tv or radio with other experts such as Brian Minter, Shell Busey and Wim Vander Zalm. The Mole Manâ€™s skill in attracting local supporters to the C in B cause is also significant. For example, Cal and Lee Adams of Tim Hortonâ€™s in Mission, already supporting events like

Helping out The Sasquatch Lions Club handed out thousands of dollars in donations at its June 6 annual dinner, including $2,000 to North Fraser Fire Department. The money has gone towards purchasing a new automatic external defibrillator (AED), a training dummy, and vehicle extrication equipment. Accepting the money from club secretary Lloyd McKimmon (centre) is Deputy Chief Curtis Stevens (left) and Fire Chief Steve Howell (right). This donation was part of $33,750 distributed throughout the Dewdney/Deroche community.

An award-winning garden hosting only plants indigenous to this area was unveiled June 20 at Mission Central Elementary School. The plot drew in many community members, school officials and First Nations volunteers over the course of several months. A power point presentation in the school gym chronicled everyone’s efforts to bring the garden to life, and started off the afternoon. Aboriginal liaison worker for Mission Public Schools Wayne Martin explained the vision for the site, which was to have a place of contemplation, and invite elders to speak about the medicinal, ceremonial and nutritional values of the plants, as well as learn about water conservation and soil erosion. A plaque was presented that afternoon in honour of ceremonial chief Paul Stanley, who helped create the garden, but passed away before it was finished. The plaque also honours all people who attended St. Mary’s Residential School, and the children of Central. The garden earned second place in the national Jack Layton Awards in the youth action in sustainability category. Central’s garden was among 300 entries vying for top spot. Martin presented school principal Brian Barber with the award during the ceremonies.

The EPRA is a not-for-profit extended producer responsibility association. It was set up by the

Where Return-It comes in: Encorp Pacific (Canada) runs the Return-It Electronics™ program. They have been contracted by EPRA to manage the electronics stewardship program.

Getting your kids back into nature

Keeping your home safe from thieves this summer

Keep your trash away from bears

In this electronic age, more and more children are drawn away from the natural environment and towards video games and other electronic entertainment. Richard Louv, author of the thoughtprovoking book Last Child in the Woods – Saving our Children from Nature-Deficit Disorder, explores the disconnect between the lack of nature in our kid’s lives and some disturbing trends such as childhood obesity, attention disorders and depression. It also can lead to a lack of respect for our natural world (littering and damaging ecosystems). Fortunately, one thing Mission does not lack is access to nature! The Mission Municipal Forest is roughly 26 times the size of Stanley Park, with numerous trails and quiet logging roads that you can explore on foot. In just minutes, you can be surrounded by beautiful forests and babbling brooks. This year each elementary school students will receive a Mission Trails Challenge – Trail Passport in their year-end school package. The Trail Passport showcases five trails for you to explore with your family. Each trail will have a unique yellow trail code sign placed somewhere along the trail. Try to visit as many as you can over the summer. When you visit each trail over the summer, enter the trail code on the passport, fill in your contact information and submit to one of the four designated drop-off locations to receive a congratulatory certificate. All entries received will be placed in a draw for prizes. The Trails Challenge is open to everyone. Download your passport and more information from www.mission.ca. See the Spring/Summer leisure guide www. mission.ca/leisureguide to sign up for a guided hike on July 11 on the Stave Dam Interpretation Trail for only $2 (limited number of spots available – recommended for ages six years and up. Difficulty: 1.6 km - Moderate with strenuous sections). It’s all in our nature so get outside and take a hike!

Make this summer a fun and safe one for you and your family by taking some precautions.

Bear sightings are up at this time of year because bears are out and about looking for one thing only – food. Garbage, compost and even recyclables are strong attractants for bears. The majority of calls received by the provincial Conservation Officer Service are about bears getting into human waste materials. Bears that are reported as a hazard are then trapped and destroyed. They are not relocated, as is often assumed. By far the best way to prevent bear conflicts is to not provide a food source for the bears in the first place. Other things that will attract bears are pet food left outside, bird feeders, dirty barbecues, badly managed backyard composts, fallen fruit, outside freezers and petroleum products. The district’s bylaws require that garbage, compost and recycling be set out only on the morning of collection, not the night before. In 2011, seven bears were shot in residential areas of Mission. Let’s make 2012 a better year for everyone. For more information on how to coexist with bears, call the Bear Aware Coordinator at 604820-3795 or visit www.bearaware.bc.ca. If you do encounter an aggressive bear, call a Conservation Officer at 1-877-952-7277.

Don’t be a target of property crime Every summer police see an increase in thefts in seasonal recreational areas. Property left in driveways, carports, backyards, or out at your summer properties are prime targets for thieves. Items such as boat motors, boats and trailers, personal water craft (Jet Ski’s), dirt bikes, motorbikes, scooters, and ATV’s should be stored and secured properly. Many summer seasonal recreation items are portable, and valuable and are popular with thieves. • Do not store items on trailers. • Clean out your garage so you can use it to store your valuable items inside. • Purchase a trailer lock that cannot be cut by bolt cutters. • If you are away from your seasonal property for an extended period of time ensure it is well locked, windows are secured, and valuable items are removed. • Check your property periodically or make

The B.C. Government and Service Employees Union launched strike action Tuesday with a one-day walkout at liquor distribution warehouses in Vancouver, Victoria and Kamloops. BCGEU chief negotiator David Vipond said the strike action is to protest the B.C. govern-

ment’s plan to sell off the three warehouses as well as back the union’s demands. The union rejected an offer of a two per cent wage increase this year and another 1.5 per cent next year, and is seeking about six per cent over two years after three years without a raise. Finance Minister Kevin Falcon responded to the union’s strike vote by suggesting the

SUMMERTIME Summertime means putting away the heavier clothing and looking forward to short sleeves and warmer weather. Some of the things that I enjoy about summer are the longer hours of daylight, washing my car in the backyard, cutting the grass, talking to the neighbors and just being outside enjoying the pleasant weather. The summer months can be sweltering at times, but, all and all, it usually is a pleasant time of the year. As one gets older, it seems that the summers get shorter. They say that time is relative, and the older we get, the faster time appears to go. Keeping this in mind, we should plan to enjoy all that the summer has to offer: go on some picnics; plan a few trips; go swimming; play some golf or tennis. The Bible tells us that everything that God has created is good; nothing is to be rejected, and everything is to be received with a prayer of thanks (1 Timothy 4:4). We thank God for summer, and for all the seasons of the year, and we ask His blessing and peace on all of us.

In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, always give thanks for everything to God the Father. Good News Bible Ephesians 5:20 St. Paul’s Presbyterian Church http://pccweb.ca/stpauls-mission

wage offer could be withdrawn. The government describes its current negotiating mandate as “co-operative gains,” where pay increases must be financed by cost reductions in work arrangement. Vipond said the BCGEU’s proposal to raise revenue by opening more government liquor stores on Sundays was rejected. When the plan to sell liquor distribution operations was revealed in February’s budget, the union was told its jobs would be protected in the transition to a private operator if the Sunday opening proposal was withdrawn, he said. The BCGEU also represents deputy sheriffs, provincial jail staff, child protection social workers, forestry and forest firefighting staff. The union has not indicated what the next strike action may be, but has vowed not to interfere with any public safety or emergency service duties. Another union proposal was to expand the duties of deputy sheriffs from court security to include traffic enforcement. That was also rejected with no explanation, Vipond said. “We can put three deputy sheriffs on the street for the price of two RCMP [officers],” he said. “They tried it in Alberta, and it was so successful they doubled the crew doing it in just a few months.”

Renaissance woman Marina Parapini a bronze academic medalist at UFV

Dewdney’s Marina Parapini was honoured June 15. SUBMITTED PHOTO

When Marina Parapini was told she had won the Governor General’s bronze medal at UFV, she had no idea what that meant. A quick Google search soon told her that it meant she had the highest GPA amongst those completing a two-year diploma at UFV — something that was both an honour and a surprise. “It was exciting, but completely unexpected,” says Parapini, a Dewd-

ney resident, who completed both her business administration diploma and bachelor of arts in English and business this year. “I finished most of the diploma a while ago,” she explains, “and just finished the last couple of credits this year.” This medal is the culmination of a five-year journey for Parapini, which didn’t always go as planned. She started at UFV with the intent to

focus purely on business, but eventually switched to an English major with a business minor. “I’ve always loved how different disciplines work together if you care to look for the connections,” she says. “It was that connection and that human aspect that drew me to English from business.” Probably the highlight of her degree, Parapini says, was the chance to spend a year abroad —

one semester in France and one in Italy. The year abroad, she says, really helped her grow as a person in a couple of ways. Studying in Italy and learning to speak Italian really helped her connect with her roots, since that’s where her father grew up and Italian is his first language. But, as Parapini says, seeing the world from the other side of the ocean really drew a lot of business principles into focus. “It really clarified the cross-cultural aspects of business,” she explains. “There are a lot of differences that you don’t understand until you get out of the valley.” And it made living in the valley again that much sweeter for Parapini. “About halfway through my degree, I was pretty convinced I never wanted to go to school again,” Parapini says with a laugh. “It sucks, being half-finished and half-unfinished. I actually left for Europe when I was feeling the most disillusioned, and I came back feeling totally recharged.” “We live in such a beautiful area,” she adds, “and travelling really hammered that home for me.” Other than the opportunity to travel abroad, Parapini says that she’ll always cherish the relationship she built with many of her professors. With such small class sizes, there were several moments where profes-

sors were able to take her aside and help her along. And despite the fact that she’s officially completed both BA and diploma after five long years, Parapini doesn’t plan to stop attending university. After taking a chemistry class to complete her lab science credit, Parapini was fascinated and took another. And another. She’s currently completing a chemistry course at UFV over the summer, and then she’ll be off to UBC in the fall, where she’s been accepted into the Bachelor of Science program. Eventually Parapini sees herself working in the health industry or with an organization like Doctors Without Borders, as a combination of all her passions. She stresses the importance trying classes outside of her major had on her academic path, and recommends all UFV students to do the same. “I probably wouldn’t have touched the business program if I’d gone straight into English,” she confesses, “but it’s been beyond helpful to see the connections that can be drawn between disciplines. Every student should take classes outside their major and their narrow interests, because everything works together.” Parapini received the Governor General’s bronze medal (as well as her BA and diploma) at UFV’s Convocation ceremonies at the Abbotsford Sports and Entertainment Centre on June 15.

Outlaws racing at Mission this weekend BY DEAN MURDOCH Contributor

The outlaws are in town. One of the most exciting classes in drag racing will invade Mission Raceway this weekend. Outlaw pro mods will blast down the quartermile at speeds in excess of 230 mph with times bordering on five seconds. The outlaw moniker comes from the rules,

or lack thereof, in what is the quickest and fastest full-bodied class in drag racing. The rules are very simple: anything goes. Blowers, turbos, nitrous and engines as big as 900 cubic inches. The pro mod class has evolved into one of the most exciting in the sport because of the variety and unpredictability of these 3,000-plus HP cars. One of the top drivers on the west coast, Cali-

fornia’s Mike Maggio, will have the target on his back as the favourite. He has run the quickest elapsed time (ET) on the west coast, turning in a 5.766 seconds last fall at Las Vegas. He is a multiple event winner in the PSCA and WCOPM series, and is looking forward to competing in Canada for the first time. Rod Burbage, another California driver, is the defending West Coast

Outlaw champion and has a number of five-second runs under his belt. A couple Canadian drivers will also have a say in who will be the champion come Sunday. First is Calgary’s Joe Delehay. He made the first five second run in western Canada, and wants to keep the trophy here, and has won at Mission before. Mission’s own Jay Syvertsen will debut his

new 1957 Chevy. He made a couple early test runs and the potential for five seconds is there. Another brand new car is the RH Race Cars/Lowe Down racing 70.5 Camaro. Agassiz’s Trevor Lowe is one of the winningest drivers in the northwest and Ryan Hinrichsen builds one of the best cars

in North America. The combination could be lethal to the competition. Another half-dozen locals and south-based cars will also challenge for the race title Sunday afternoon. The Canadian Pro Street open their season this weekend as well and the Canada West Doorslammers are in the

middle of their eight-race series. It will be a doorcar extravaganza. Qualifying starts Saturday at 5 p.m. and ends at 10 p.m. Final eliminations on Sunday begin at noon. As always kids under 12 are free. Go to missionraceway.com for info or speedzonemagazine.com for all the results.

Jack Gregson (Major Ret’d) died peacefully in his home at 92 years of age surrounded by his family. Born and educated in Victoria, he joined the Canadian Scottish Regiment prior to WWII. Served overseas during the war. Returned to Victoria and joined Canada Customs. Met and married his loving wife Jackie at the Canadian Scottish Officer’s Mess. He left Victoria with Canada Customs and worked throughout BC, and finished his career while living in Abbotsford. In Abbotsford he served the community volunteering on the Hospital Board, The Abbotsford Air Show Committee and the Rotary Club. He moved back home to Victoria in 2003. Survived by Jackie, his wife of 61 years, children David (Dianne), Maggie (Al), Eric (Lorna), Pam (Royce), Joan (Larry). He enjoyed his 10 grandchildren and 3 great grand-daughters. Family Memorial to follow. In lieu of flowers remembrances may be made to a charity of your choice. Condolences at: remembering.ca “The Scotch is Gone It’s Time to go Home”

To our Precious Daughter and Sister Kristine (Kristy) Petronella Tolsma March 21, 1998 July 6th, 2004 You have gone... To where earth turns into Heaven And a golden paradise you did find Although we are happy For your peacefulness You are missed by those you left behind We share grief, disbelief and sorrow Wondering “How can this be?” Yet, we are thankful for the memories That will sustain us, until we meet in Eternity. Love, Dad, Mom and your brothers and sisters

After a long stay in hospital David passed way at Mission Memorial Hospital on June 25th, 2012. He was a strong person, very optimistic and fought his illness to the end until his strength and body could no longer endure. Throughout his life he met and touched many people’s lives, family and friends as we all do. People liked and loved him; he was always happy, most of the time easy going. He seemed to have a smile and perhaps a joke or two to tell. The one thing he loved to do was cook and many that knew him shared this time with fine food and drink. David was predeceased by his loving wife Elizabeth Lukiv (nee Kallai) on October 12th, 1996 and now with his passing they have been reunited in heaven. He is survived by his two sons Bryant and Lorne and daughter Sharon and their families. Together, David and Elizabeth are now watchful over the 6 grandchildren and 16 great grandchildren they have left behind. He will be missed, remembered and loved by all. The family also wish at this time to thank all the staff at Mission Memorial Hospital, Ridge Meadow’s Rehab, Abbotsford and Surrey Rehab for all the care given to David. A special thanks to Dr. Nemanishen, who looked after dad for a very long time, (he got his wings Dr. Nem). Also we thank the staff at Hillcrest Clinic for setting appointments and Dr. De Klerk, Dr. Wong and Dr. Jackson for being there when Dr. Nemanishen wasn’t. At this time we would also like to give a special thank you to the staff and friends at The Cedars where David was loved and lovingly called home. Every time he was in hospital he could hardly wait to go back. Each one of you became like family. As David would say, “I’ll catch you when I see you” and “I am doing the best I can”. The family will always remember the loving care you have shown to our father, grandfather and great grandfather, David.

OBITUARIES

MATIATION Joseph Aged 91 years passed away peacefully at Pleasant View Care Home on June 28, 2012. He will be sadly missed by his companion Leona Goertz, his son Douglas Matiation, grandchildren Nathan, Joshua and Brian, many nieces and nephews and Leona’s close knit family as well as many relatives and friends. He is predeceased by his wife Francis of 40 years and son Darryn. There will be a Graveside Service at Hazelwood Cemetery in Abbotsford BC at a later date. In Lieu of flowers donations can be made to the charity of your choice. The family wishes to thank all the staff at Pleasant View Care Home for their kind and thoughtful care given to Joe.
