Siberian smoke fades, U.S. fires may add to haze

■ S UMMERTIME C OOL D OWN

No air quality advisories issued for the region yet Jeff Nagel Black Press The phenomenon of smoke wafting here from wildfires in Siberia is no longer a significant factor behind hazy skies over the Fraser Valley, according to Metro Vancouver officials. Russian fires were blamed Monday by air quality officials for a near-doubling in fine particulate levels over the past weekend. The Air Quality Index was forecast to climb to four out of 10 on Wednesday in Chilliwack, posing a “moderate health risk.” “The situation is now changing,” Metro Vancouver spokesman Glenn Bohn said Wednesday. “The influence of smoke from the Asian fires has mostly ended. The concentrations of fine particulates have decreased.” But he said fires burning in Washington, Oregon, Idaho and California could send more smoke into B.C. in the days ahead, depending on the weather. So far Metro officials are watching conditions and haven’t yet issued any air quality advisories. Air quality experts recently unveiled a new website that rates air visibility at key sites around the Lower Mainland using a network of automated cameras. The ratings and images can be viewed at clearairbc.ca.

Mosquitoes arrive as water drops Robert Freeman The Progress Skeeters sucking the fun out of your outdoor activities now that the sun has finally shown its face in the Fraser Valley? Well, it’s too late to do anything about it, except take evasive measures: use insect repellent, wear long-sleeved light-coloured clothing, and avoid the dawn and dusk hours when mosquitoes are most active. Blame it all on the nearflood level of Fraser River

waters this year that washed over mosquito eggs laid in years past, and that seeped through dikes to reactivate breeding grounds all along the river. The river water is receding now, but the mosquitoes that survived a barrage of larviciding and reached adulthood are flying far and wide — five kilometres or more with a good breeze behind them — in search of a blood meal. The mosquitoes you are slapping away from your face today are about a quarter of

the way through their one- to two-month life cycle, meaning about six more weeks of aggravation. Unless the weather cooperates with a long, hot, dry spell and no more “pulses” of high water coming down the Fraser. “If it stays hot enough and dry enough they’ll die quicker,” said Dirk Lewis, a biologist at Morrow BioScience and the mosquito man for the Fraser Valley Regional District. Morrow has been battling skeeters in the Fraser Valley

since 1989. Since early April this year Morrow and a team of four assistants waded and paddled into swampy mosquito breeding grounds to apply a bacterial agent that kills the larvae before they reach adulthood and sprout wings. The team applied the larvicide — by hand and by helicopter — to 500 more hectares this year than in 2011, covering about 2,000 hectares in total throughout the Fraser Valley region.

Britco, Seabird Island Band sign jobs agreement Robert Freeman The Progress The Seabird Island Band has signed a jobs agreement with Britco, linking the growing Agassiz employer with students at Seabird College and clients at the Seabird Island employment centre. Eligible students can now get the work experience they need close to home to graduate from construction-related trades programs, and Britco gets a skilled labour pool right at its doorstep. “It’s a great opportunity for

First Nations students, and a natural for the company,” said Chris Gardner, Britco executive vice president. “We’ve made investing in education and training initiatives a key priority for us,” he said, to develop job skills needed by both native and non-native students as a shortage of skilled labour looms in B.C. The B.C. government says 80 per cent of the million jobs opening up in the province over the next 10-15 years will require post-secondary training. “We think a par tnership

like this is an innovative way to address that need,” Gardner said. Seabird Chief Clement Seymour said the goal of the partnership “is to increase the employability and employment rate of people in our community.” “We are proud to work with Britco to provide high-quality education and training opportunities for our members,” he said. Unlike other post-secondar y facilities, Seabird College offers highschool graduation programs for adults and training for a wide range of professions.

About 60 per cent of students living on First Nations reserves in Canada have not completed highschool compared to 17 per cent in the population at large. Diane Janzen, Seabird Island’s education manager, said the college is a long-held vision of band members to address that graduation statistic, and a growing part of the broader community. The college offers band members education and training without the need to leave the reserve, and additional “wrap-around services” like a job placement officer to help find employment.

■ S UN D ANCE

“This is the culmination of a dream that’s been going on for 50 years,” Janzen said. “The vision goes way back to a group of (Seabird Island) women in the ‘60s and ‘70s with their own vision for education,” she said, which was carried forward “by chiefs and councillors who have always valued education.” The college is also looking at working with B.C. Transit on becoming part of a new bus run between Agassiz and Hope. Continued: BRITCO/ p4

FPB audits company in Spotted Owl territory Robert Freeman The Progress An audit of forestry operations near Spotted Owl habitat in the Harrison Lake area was welcomed Wednesday by the Western Canada Wilderness Committee. But WCWC spokesman Joe Foy questioned how deep the study by

the Forest Practices Board would probe into activities by logging companies. “We’ve found from past FPB studies they are constrained by forestry laws,” Foy said. But then again, he added, other FPB studies have at time times revealed “useful” information. “They may uncover some inter-

esting things in the Harrison Lake area,” he said, like the impact of private power developments. A spokesperson for the FPB said the audit of the company - 606546 BC Ltd. - on Forest Licence A19202 was chosen at random and not as the result of any complaints. The har vesting occurred

near the community of Deroche, and around Chehalis Lake, the Sumallo River and the Silver River near Harrison Lake. Spotted owls are known to inhabit some of those areas, the FPB said in a news release announcing the audit.

Some of the early food crops growing in backyards are destined for the Chilliwack Salvation Army food bank. The first veggie drop-off of the year is set for Saturday afternoon at the Sunshine Community Garden, as part of the Plant A Row/Grow A Row program by Food Matters Chilliwack. Volunteer organizers say they aren’t expecting too much, with a slower start and cooler spring this year, so they pushed back the first drop-off/swap date to July 14 from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. New this year is the Sardis drop-off site, which is the Sunshine Community Garden, behind the Mathieson Centre at 45195 Wells Road. “The whole idea behind PARGAR is that people should feed their families first, but anyone with surplus can join us.” They can trade with other gardening enthusiasts in the Harvest Swap and/or drop off their PARGAR donations for washing and weighing. “We’ll probably see some cool weather crops ready like potatoes, beets, radishes, lettuce and kale,” said Alanna Clempson, PARGAR and gleaning coordinator. “But it’s hard to know what will be ready.” Coffee, water and juice will be available for the volunteer gardeners. The drop-offs will be held every two weeks until October 13. For more details go to foodmatterschilliwack.com/pargar/ jfeinberg@theprogress.com twitter.com/CHWKjourno

Experience trails to add Fraser’s north arm, Colony Farm FVRD is expected to spend the majority of its grant money on trail development. Jeff Nagel Black Press The proposed Experience the Fraser trail network through the Lower Mainland will add a leg down the north arm of the Fraser River between Richmond and

Vancouver. And existing trails along both sides of the Coquitlam River in Colony Farm Regional Park will also be designated part of Experience The Fraser. The revisions to the concept plan approved

by Metro Vancouver’s environment and parks committee are expected to be approved in late July. Gaetan Royer, Metro’s manager in charge of planning, environment and parks, said the extensions should add to the appeal of the trail network. Another concept plan revision emphasizes the importance of bridges to trail users who want to be able to cross the river to follow loop routes. Royer said Metro has ensured the draft terms of reference for rebuilding the Pattullo Bridge includes a reference to Experience the Fraser and the need to ensure good connections for pedestrians and cyclists no matter what final bridge configuration is determined. Experience The Fraser this spring received a $1 million grant, being split by Metro and the Fraser Valley Regional District (FVRD), to open new park land, improve access and continue building the Canyon To Coast trail, considered the backbone of the Experience plan. Much of Metro’s share is going to add more money for already planned park upgrades to the Mission Bridge day-use area in Matsqui Trail Regional Park and to open up a section of Surrey Bend Regional Park with a riverfront trail and day-use amenities. Metro is also devoting money to a canoe launch at Kanaka Creek Regional Park and interpretive sig-

nage along the New Westminster waterfront. The FVRD is expected to spend the majority of its grant money on trail development. The two regional districts are jointly working on a travelling exhibit, speakers’ bureau, signage standards. They also plan to place signs for Experience The Fraser’s first phase, including a 33-kilometre segment from Colony Farm to Fort Langley, as well as trail segments already developed in the FVRD. But some Metro directors have already been voicing concern that the ambitious trail network is long on talk and short on the much larger amounts of money that will be required to actually complete it. The regional board has been debating a freeze on parkland acquisition because its parks budget levy has been unable to keep pace with rising costs and land prices. Metro environment and parks committee chair Heather Deal said impressive Experience the Fraser projects will be underway soon. “Whether we get continued funding will be up to us, whether we do a good job of lobbying,” the Vancouver councillor said. “It will be a challenge. I think it will actually be easier now that we’ve got the north arm on with some large urban populations, with MLAs and MPs who represent them.”

Gardner said the July 11 agreement “really reflects the longstanding relationship and partnership” the company has with the Seabird Island Band. Britco, the second largest manufacturers of modular buildings in North America, has more than 200 employees at its “flagship” plant in Agassiz, and 10 per cent of those are First Nations. The company expanded its workforce by 40 per cent last year, and expects to expand by another 30-40 per cent this year, so students may find permanent jobs there. rfreeman@theprogress.com twitter.com/paperboy2

Police seize drugs and weapons from home Suspect had Chilliwack connection Vikki Hopes Black Press A 31-year-old man has been charged after police raided an Abbotsford home on last Tuesday night and seized drugs and weapons. Kerr y Douglas Russell is charged with three counts of possession for the purpose of trafficking. Const. Ian MacDonald said Russell was also arrested on outstanding weapons and drug warrants issued by police in New Westminster and Mission. Weapons charges in Tuesday’s bust are being considered. Officers executed a

search warrant at about 8:15 p.m. in the 3100 block of Old Clayburn Road. Upon arrival, Russell allegedly fled on foot from the property but was quickly apprehended. He and a 26-year-old female, who was present on the property, were arrested. Police seized two rifles, an imitation handgun, $8,100 cash, 22 grams of cocaine, 350 grams of bulk and packaged marijuana, and 41 ecstasy pills. The bust involved the Abbotsford Police’s drug enforcement unit assisted by the gang suppression unit and patrol division officers. MacDonald said a

seizure of this nature is usually indicative of someone who is involved in doling out product to dealers in a dial-a-dope operation. He said Russell has had about 30 previous interactions with police. He has only one prior conviction – for possession of a controlled sub-

stance in Abbotsford in 2004 – under the name “Kerry Russell,” but he has a string of charges and convictions under various aliases he uses, according to the provincial court database. These of fences occurred mainly in Abbotsford, Mission and Chilliwack. They

include convictions for possession for the purpose of trafficking, possession of counterfeit money, possession of a controlled substance, fleeing from police, using a stolen credit card, and breaching his bail and probation conditions.

These items were seized by Abbotsford Police during a bust on July 3. ABBOTSFORD POLICE DEPARTMENT

Pensions for retiring MLAs draws fire

Save up to $350.

Tom Fletcher Black Press VICTORIA – Veteran B.C. Liberal MLA Murray Coell has added his name to the list of politicians retiring from the B.C. legislature, as the Canadian Taxpayers’ Federation renewed its criticism of the MLA pension plan. Coell, MLA for Saanich North and the Islands since 1996, announced Wednesday he will not stand for re-election next spring. Surrey-Tynehead MLA Dave Hayer announced the same decision earlier this week, joining Burnaby-Lougheed MLA Harry Bloy, Vancouver-Fraserview MLA Kash Heed and Kamloops-North Thompson MLA Kevin Krueger in retirement from the B.C. Liberal caucus effective May 2013. On the NDP side, New Westminster MLA Dawn Black and Maple Ridge-Pitt Meadows MLA Mike Sather have indicated they will complete their current terms and retire. More retirements are expected in both parties. Canadian Taxpayers’ Federation B.C. director Jordan Bateman used Hayer’s departure as an example of what the CTF calls gold-plated pension payouts available since the MLA plan was reinstated in 2007. The CTF calculates that Hayer will

The Ice Age played an important role in Finland’s geography. It is a country of thousands of lakes and islands and the eroding effects of the glaciers left the Ana Finnish MACEDO landscape mostly flat, with few hills and even fewer mountains. Most of the country is covered by forests of pine, spruce and birch trees, making it the largest forested area in Europe. For this reason, it is the largest wood producer on that continent. “Canada is very similar to my country so it feels quite like home. The only difference is that we don’t have mountains in Finland like you have here. The mountains are just so impressive here in Canada,” said Mimmi Pekurinen, a Finnish Tourism student who is working in Chilliwack for the summer.

That’s probably going to mean a mosquito control bill approaching $290,000 this year, about 10 per cent more than the $260,000 expended last year, said George Murray, the FVRD’s CEO. The Fraser’s annual spring freshet is always followed by a wave of marauding mosquitoes, and there are more when the river is running high like this year. Lewis said complicating mosquito control this year was the seepage through dikes that created new “pockets” of unseen stagnant water perfect for breeding grounds. Stacey Barker, the FVRD’s manager of environmental services, said “more new sites were found than ever before.” “We spent more time than we ever have in past years trying to monitor the emergence of mosquitoes on the islands within the Fraser River,” she said. And with the density of mosquito larvae in these pockets topping 1,000 per cup of water, even with a 90 per cent kill rate, she said, “there’s still a lot of mosquitoes out there.” Lewis said with the river water receding now, it’s unlikely that any active breeding grounds remain, so further larviciding is pointless. But residents who come across pools of standing water are urged to call the FVRD’s hotline at 1-888-

733-2333 or email the FVRD at mosquitoes@ fvrd.bc.ca so potential breeding grounds can be mapped for mosquito control in future years. You can also follow Lewis and the mosquito control team on Twitter @morrowmosquito or find them on Facebook at facebook.com/morrowmosquito.

Taxpayer’s Federation blast pensions PENSION from p5 likely collect $47,600 the year he turns 65, increasing to $62,900 a year by the time he is 80 due to inflation protection. Coell served in several cabinet posts, most recently as labour minister after the 2009 election. Since pensions are based on an MLA’s highest three earning years, Bateman calculates that Coell’s pension will kick in at $89,000 a year. The CTF says taxpayers contribute $4 for each dollar paid by politicians. MLAs must serve six years to be eligible. If defeated before then, they get a 15-month severance. The return of the pension plan for B.C. MLAs was overshadowed by steep pay increases they voted for themselves

in 2007. The B.C. Liberal government adopted the recommendations of an independent committee that increased base pay for a backbench MLA 29 per cent to $98,000, with automatic cost-ofliving increases that bring the current base pay to nearly $102,000. In response to public pressure, the previous MLA pension plan was scrapped by former NDP premier Mike Harcourt in 1996. A group retirement savings plan was set up that matched MLA contributions dollar for dollar, a system the CTF says was fair. The 2007 return of the indexed, defined-benefit pension was originally opposed by the NDP, but former leader Carole James reversed her position and supported it after pressure from caucus members.

Changing market Housing sales are steady in the Fraser Valley, even as they seem to be on a bit more of a decline in Metro Vancouver. However, with cities in the region so different, it is hard to paint with too broad a brush. Nonetheless, there are a few trends which seem to be emerging. One is that, despite low interest rates, people seem to be unwilling to pay any more for housing. Prices have been going up and up for the past decade, and are now at the point where many working people simply can’t afford to buy. Another trend is an inability to qualify for a mortgage. The federal government has tightened up the amortization period for homes requiring Canada Mortgage and Housing mortgage insurance — it is now 25 years. Even with low interest rates, that means bigger monthly payments. When prices are high, and most people aren’t seeing wage increases, that means some people simply can’t get into the market. A third trend is more intangible, but nonetheless valid. People have a sense that the economy isn’t doing nearly as well as it could, and even positive economic news does not entice them to go out and borrow a great deal of money. Home construction, renovation, real estate sales and businesses catering to homeowners together account for a huge portion of local economic activity. Any significant downturn in housing construction and sales will have a major effect on many people here — even those who are not in the market for a new house. It should be the goal of all governments to make home ownership as easy as possible for as many people as possible. People who own their homes have a tangible stake in their neighbourhoods, and this in turns fosters a better sense of community and more involvement with others. If lower prices help more people to eventually buy homes, that’s a good thing. ~ Black Press

Nuggets from Bill Barlee’s gold pan VICTORIA – Shortly after word came of the death of B.C. historian and politician Bill Barlee, my wife searched through her seemingly endless trove of B.C. books and produced half a dozen of his original self-published quarterlies, known as Canada West magazine. The earliest one is Winter 1970, where the publisher’s note advises that subscription rates were increasing 20 cents per year to $2.95. Subscriptions were up to more than 1,600 and counter sales were increasing, but costs were also up and Barlee refused to accept either display advertising or U.S. subscriptions. The only colour pages in the issue are high-quality prints of four majestic paintings commissioned for the magazine. Irvine Adams’ scenes of sacred aboriginal sites in the Okanagan-Similkameen include The Gateway to Inkameep, where Barlee remarks: “Today

that stream which once teemed with redfish no longer surrenders its once-valued harvest and the perimeter of the desert is gradually being eroded by man’s questionable progress.” With the typography of Old West wanted posters, Barlee provided tightly sourced accounts of B.C.’s legends. Tom “Lost gold mine FLETCHER at Pitt Lake” analyzes and adds to earlier accounts that begin with an aboriginal miner known as Slumach, who would periodically arrive in New Westminster to squander a small fortune in gold, then disappear up the remote tidal lake. Slumach was hanged for murder in 1891 and in the next 70 years, 11 more

men would die trying to find his secret. A scientist as well as a storyteller, Barlee concluded that the area’s geology is wrong and the fabled gold-laden creek “probably does not exist.” A passion for prospecting runs through the magazines, and hints at Barlee’s aversion to treasureseeking Americans. They overran B.C. in historic waves to take gold, and according to Nelson Star reporter Greg Nesteroff, Barlee believed they continued to loot Canadian heritage sites. Nesteroff was inspired by Barlee’s work, and traced his lonely mission to restore the ghost town of Sandon, “the mining capital of the Silvery Slocan.” Barlee bought a surviving block of buildings in an effort to make Sandon another Barkerville, but heavy snow collapsed them. As tourism minister, Barlee found money to build replicas, and con-

struction began on three. But Barlee lost his Penticton seat to Bill Barisoff in the 1996 election, and today only half-built shells remain. “He was still selling Sandon’s restoration as an economic saviour for the region when he ran for federal office in 2000,” Nesteroff writes. “But by then he was ridiculed for it, and finished a distant second.” Barlee’s 1972 Canada West profile of the boomtown of Hedley would resonate in his career as an NDP MLA and cabinet minister in the 1990s. Hedley’s Nickel Plate and Mascot mines produced fortunes in gold, silver and copper before they played out, and Barlee led the fight to preserve their history. Today you can tour the Mascot mine, a proud historical site with a spectacular climb up the rock face that serves as the Grouse Grind of

the B.C. desert. I first discovered Barlee as a reporter at the Kelowna Capital News in the early 1980s, when he did a weekly history show on CHBC television called Gold Trails and Ghost Towns. A barebones studio affair with tales and artifacts displayed for host Mike Roberts, the show lasted a decade. Barlee didn’t lack courage, quitting a teaching career in Trail and Penticton in 1969 to start his magazine. On subscription fees and a few classified ads, he built a life’s work that allowed him to walk the boardwalks of history and the halls of power.

Solar power in Chilliwack? After watching an episode of the Rick Mercer Report the other night I have come to the conclusion our government in this province is really just blind to opportunity or just ignorant. When will our government start funding solar panels on houses like Pure Energy does back in Ontario? When I see David Suzuki and Mike Holmes endorsing green projects like this, I wonder, when will somebody finally get off their backside and initiate a program like it in Chilliwack? Wouldn’t it be nice to harness solar power and reduce our foot-

print in the environment. Why not produce our own electricity and sell it back to BC Hydro? When will people tell the local and provincial governments to smarten up and bring things like this to our community? Why is it that in a lot of ways our local and provincial governments seem to sit on the fence and wait to see what happens or just give themselves raises in their pay and pensions and bury their heads in the sand when in comes to being initiators and not imitators. I realize Chilliwack has gone through a bit of a growth spurt in

the last decade but our response to this has been sub-par at best. Road conditions are poor in most parts of town, transit service is severely lacking and other than the taxes continuing to go up, the services continue to decline. This city needs to have people at the helm that really fight to get programs that benefit the city and help us move ahead of other municipalities. Lets get moving on this and other projects and let the other municipalities follow us into the future.

Are Canadians getting ripped off? I try to be a loyal Canadian consumer but it’s getting harder every day. I’m not sure Canadian retailers understand that most people today start their research, relating to a significant purchase, using the internet. Personally I don’t cross the border to do casual shopping for things like gas, groceries or clothing but I do check sources and

prices on-line and I try to buy North American made products and invariably prices in the U.S. are substantially lower. Some recent examples; I needed to replace the winch on the front of my garden tractor and discovered that the only North American made winch was available on-line and was carried by three local RV/ATV dealers. The price in

the U.S. was $310 with free shipping to Sumas. The lowest quote from local sources was just under $600.00. On an appliance part recently a local dealer quoted $87 plus $6 “to bring it in.” Dewaard and Bode in Bellingham ordered it, brought it in and sold it to me for $35. The topper was yesterday when I checked local suppliers for cement board and found two local

sources at just over $20 per sheet. Lowes Home Improvement Centre in Bellingham currently have it in stock at just under $9 a sheet. Now I thought we had a North American Free Trade agreement in place with both the U.S. and Mexico so how come the huge difference in prices on North American produced goods ? J F Fleck

NDP and ‘wonky math’ Transit The welcome but unexpected contract settlement reached with the BCTF means BC parents can now breathe a small sigh of relief for the coming school year. However, with a provincial election less than a year away, it’s fair to wonder what Adrian Dix and the NDP would have done, or would do, if they were in government and negotiating with the BCTF. Unfortunately, Adrian Dix and the NDP appear to have taken a vow of silence on this subject. Fortunately, the not so distant past provides us with an idea how Adrian Dix would likely go about negotiating a BCTF contract, because when he was NDP Premier Glen Clark’s chief of staff in the dying days of the NDP regime of the late 1990s, Dix helped orchestrate a notoriously

one-sided “sweetheart” deal with the BCTF. Although the contract was sold to the public as a fiscally restrained 0-0-2 settlement, the arithmetic of the contract terms yielded a very different 11% total once the province’s school district administrators crunched the numbers. The real cost of Dix’s 0-0-2 BCTF contract amounted to an additional $1.3 billion (in 1990s dollars) for BC taxpayers and it lead to the now famous headline, “NDP math: 0+0+2=11.” So while parents, students and school staff look forward to a relatively normal school year this coming fall, we should reflect on the lessons of history and the wonky NDP math that nearly sank this province.

changes come short I fully agree with Owen Delane regarding changes to transit published in The Progress July 10 edition. As one who uses the system I am upset as I can see what these changes have done to the seniors who are the ones that use the transit the most. Also, they never addressed the fact that there are no buses on holidays so therefore we are unable to join in any celebrations that are held. Wake up council and see what a farce the new transit changes are.

In June, Sardis secondary’s 2012 grad class had its commencement ceremony in Chilliwack. Everyone wore the same thing: a black gown and a black mortarboard. But their footwear was a different story. From fluorescent pink stilettos, to old skate shoes, to cowboys boots, they had it all. And because the only thing that’s different about high school grads’ outfits on commencement day is their footwear, it was the shoes that spoke for each graduate’s personality. See a slide show of dozens of their shoes online at theprogress.com/lifestyles. JENNA HAUCK/ PROGRESS

Unionized ICBC workers have begun an overtime ban as part of job action aimed at spurring the auto insurer to give ground in contract talks. The ban began July 6 and follows a Labour Relations Board ruling that found ICBC was bargaining in bad faith by refusing to discuss wages and benefits until a provincial review of the corporation concludes. The two sides are expected to resume negotiations later this month. COPE 378 issued 72-hour strike notice in June but union leaders indicated they would ramp up job action very slowly, in an effort to pressure the government without affecting drivers.

When Mimmi is not welcoming tourists to our area or directing them to their next big adventure, she enjoys going on adventures of her own. “I really like to go out and discover new things. I also enjoy reading, music, sports, church and I love to bake. I like to bake what we

Party Friday with The Matinée and more

The 34th annual Harrison Festival of the Arts closes this weekend with some amazing acts featuring Blues, Gospel, First Nations, African and more culture. Chilliwack’s own Inez is performing Friday and Saturday on the beach. JENNA HAUCK/ PROGRESS FILE

Inez hits Harrison beach this weekend tion to the family. Inez is still floating off the huge energy gained from playing Aboriginal Day Live before 40,000 people in Winnipeg. “It’s one of the biggest events of the year in Indian Country.” The show aired on APTN on June 23 and a whopping 300,000 viewers tuned in. “I think that was my biggest show,” she enthused. She had to disclose she was pregnant before APTN hired her because she knew she’d be six and a half months along. They asked her if she thought she could do it. “I told them, ‘I’m not handicapped, I’m just pregnant!’ Fact is I started my career a few years ago when I was seven months pregnant, so I thought, what’s stopping me now?”

Actually it all fits in with her day job which encourages young mothers to concentrate on fitness and nutrition and self-care. When she’s not a busy community health nurse for Sto:lo Nation, she’s jetsetting around the continent performing music inspired by her culture, or giving motivational talks. “I travel by plane everywhere else, it’s nice to perform in B.C.,” she says. She’s working on her next album, which she says will be “geared to the direction I really want to go in.” It will be happy, upbeat and dance-oriented — and as usual it will reflect her pride in her aboriginal cultural traditions. “I write who I am,” says Inez. “One of my upcoming singles is, Electric 49.

“So it’s about a party but 49er means a powwow party. It’s who I am and who I come from.” The Harrison Festival of the Arts closes out this weekend with some amazing acts featuring Blues, Gospel, First Nations, African and more culture. Cellist Kevin Fox has keen ability as an instrumentalist, singer, composer/arranger, performer and songwriter. These chops offered him passage to work with the likes of Justin Bieber and Kathleen Edwards, recording with artists as diverse as Raine Maida and Celine Dion, and touring extensively with musicians ranging from Chantal Kreviazuk and Steven Page to Tom Cochrane and Olivia Newton-John.

She and blues-folk guitarist Jason Burnstick will be doing acoustic sets on Friday at 3 p.m. and Saturday at 1 p.m. at the 34th annual Harrison Festival of the Arts, and the second weekend of diverse Beach Stage acts. “I’m so excited to play Harrison,” said Inez from her home in Chilliwack. “It’s a great opportunity to connect with locals.” It’s been a while since she played on home turf. “But I think this might be my last gig before I give birth.” She has another eight weeks before her and son, Zane and husband, Otis welcome another addi-

Vancouver five-piece band The Matinée brings some rocking alt-country licks to Party in the Park, as the headliner this Friday night. Their live act is described “as a long established uproar of stomping, clapping, and blazing chops,” on their bio. “The songs were already formidable enough to lodge themselves in local radio playlists (and beyond: “$50”, “Mama”, “Let Her Go”). “On top of that, the band had emerged as the kind of outfit that could swing between the Merritt Mountain Music Festival and the hipster ground zero of Vancouver’s Biltmore Cabaret without breaking a sweat. The Party in the Park entertainment will also showcase country sensation AJ Woodworth, and harmonizing sister act from Langley, Robyn and Ryleigh Gillespie.

The duo performed in Vancouver during the Winter Olympics, have played Merritt and competed in the recent Langley Has Talent competition.

Chilliwack author to read at The Book Man Another award-winning author will be gracing The Book Man’s much-loved, dog-eared stacks. Local author Annie Daylon will be reading from her new book, Passages: A Collection of Short Stories, on Saturday, July 14 at 2 p.m. The fictional tales include a man’s journey from middle-class to homeless; a young women’s regrets of the day; the passage of life; and more – all with a Canadian backdrop. Daylon, a retired teacher, is channeling her love of reading and her skills as an educator in this second career as an author. Her venture into short fiction began as a break from the marathon of writing her first novel, Maggie of the Marshes, which was released on Kindle in 2010. Daylon’s stories, which range from heartwarming to horrifying, have appeared in literary magazines across North America. Daylon was born in Newfoundland, but now resides in Chilliwack and is a member of the Chilliwack Writers’ Group. After attending Mount Allison University in New Brunswick, the University of Manitoba, and and the University of British Columbia where she earned a masters’ degree in education, Daylon spent 30 years teaching before venturing into authorhood. For more information on the author, visit her website at www.anniedaylon.com. Copies of Passages can be purchased after the reading for $10.

you normally workout daily, don’t stress about a few extra days of rest. When I go away, I give myself ‘double points’ for a workout. For example, if I usually go for an hour-long workout, I give myself the same credit for a 30-minute sweat session. 3. Plan ahead. Keeping fit on Tanja your vacation SHAW starts when you are still at home. Pack your runners or walking shoes, and some workout clothes. If you like listening to music, pack your music player and earphones. Plan what type of workout you’ll be doing on vacation. For example, you can research if there are gyms near where you’ll be staying, or a good place to go for a run. 4. Workout in the morning. From personal experience, choosing to exercise first thing in the morning greatly increases the chances you’ll get the workout done. Getting your workout done in the morning frees up the rest of the day for relaxing on the beach or family outings. 5. For the most part, stick to your regular eating habits. There seems to be endless opportunities to eat while on vacation- starting with the complimentary pop, chips and cookies offered on your flight. If you don’t regularly drink soda at 7 a.m. in the morning, don’t drink one on your early morning flight just because it’s there. Be mindful of the foods you eat, and the portions you consumecalories add up quickly! When you choose to indulge in food, choose wisely and thoroughly enjoy your meal! 6. Plan your meals. If you’re staying with relatives, offer to go grocery shopping so you can pick up a few healthy snacks, or help with meal planning. If you’re eating at Continued: FITNESS/ p33

Chilliwack is not my hometown, but it feels like it is. I was born in Tisdale, Saskatchewan and spent most of my growing up on a dairy farm. After graduation I moved to Calgary for 15 years, then my husband was transferred to the coast and we made our home in Surrey. I moved out here as a single mom with my three kids almost 12 years ago. We loved Chilliwack immediately and my family has had a very happy life here. So I feel like I’m well qualiﬁed to work with new people coming to the area, as well as those who have been here forever, because I believe in this city. I think I’ve found a little piece of paradise and the wisest people know this to be true. Give me a call anytime for your complimentary market evaluation or if you know someone moving to town, pass along my name, because Chilliwack is my hometown now.

The Mission... The Vision... An Enduring Purpose... A Future Focus... Who Am I... My Promise... These words begin to describe how I differ for the norm. I have spent the past 16 years in the Sales, Marketing, and Advertising field. It is this background that gives me a unique perspective of how a home should be marketed. Are you tired of leaving messages that aren’t being returned? Do you find it annoying when the homes advertised in the newspapers are not as they seem? Wouldn’t it be nice to work with someone who understands your point of view? Nothing puts a bigger smile on my face than having satisfied clients whom I have helped to reach their real estate goals. I provide you with the highest degree of professional service excellence and customer satisfaction that is “TOUGH to BEAT.” I am Mike DellaFortuna, and it would be my pleasure to help you.

Your Realtor’s job is to find the perfect home, in the right location and with all of the amenities you want - and at the right price. However, you may have questions about the structure and condition of the home and it may not be perfect. A home inspection is the best place to get answers to your questions. There are companies that specialize in inspecting new and used homes. Most sellers allow a reasonable amount of time to have the property inspected after the purchase agreement is agreed upon and prior to closing. It is wise to have a home inspection, even if the house is new or everything appears to be in perfect condition. You should have a structural inspector go over the house from the foundation to the roof so that you can make an informed decision. A structural expert can give you crucial information about the plumbing, wiring, heating and air conditioning systems. He will check the roof, give you an indication of the condition of the appliances, and inform you about replacement or repairs. The inspector can also show you where the water cut-off valve and circuit breakers or fuse box are located. The inspector won’t pass or flunk a house based on what he finds, but will go over the house thoroughly to help you understand what it is you are buying. If there are any serious problems, and if they are reflected in the price, your

inspector can give you an idea of how much the repairs may cost. If there are surprises, you will have the opportunity to re-open negotiations with the sellers before you commit to the purchase. What if your ‘perfect’ house isn’t really perfect after all? Its ‘Old World’ charm extends to the heating and plumbing systems and the roof leaks when it rains. What should you do? Your strategy should depend on several things. Did you know about the problems when you made your offer? Did the sellers build some room into the asking price with the understanding that their house was a handyman’s dream? Most inspections turn up at least a few items that need attention, but they can occasionally reveal major defects. The inspection clause in your contract has a time limit. If you really like the house, you should consider renegotiating with the sellers. Your Realtor can advise you about how to include an inspection in your offer to purchase and give you the names of inspectors in your area. The purchase of a home is a major investment, and the cost of an inspection is well worth the peace of mind it provides.

CMHA heading for Human Rights Tribunal headache Eric J. Welsh, The Progress Chilliwack’s Minor Hockey Association has a big problem on its hands. An internal battle over female hockey fees has escalated dramatically, with two local parents registering a formal complaint with the BC Human Rights Tribunal. That complaint has been accepted and a letter has been mailed to CMHA demanding a response. The ball is now rolling on a process that threatens to put CMHA on the map, not for hockey excellence but for gender discrimination. Julia Lakey and Karen Esau launched the HRT complaint on behalf of their hockey playing daughters. At the heart of the matter is CMHA’s decision to charge higher fees to females who choose to play on femaleonly teams. “We’re paying the $660 everyone else pays plus an extra $183,” Lakey said in a Tuesday talk with the Progress. “It doesn’t matter what excuses they come up with. You cannot charge girls more than boys.” CMHA’s position is that higher fees are necessary to offset the higher costs of running the female program. With fewer players to draw from, each female team has between 10 and 12 skaters. Most of the male teams have between 14 and 18 skaters. If 12 females pay $660 in registration fees at the start of the season, they will contribute $7,290 to the CMHA coffers. If 18 males pay $660 in registration fees at the start of the season, they will contribute $11,880. Even adding the extra $183 per skater on the female side only generates another $2,196, leaving the female team’s revenue at $9,486. If ice fees are equal for both teams (ice time costs can vary based on time slots), then CMHA’s case is clear from a pure business standpoint. But Lakey said it’s got to be more about common

sense than dollars and cents. “Hockey’s expensive as it is, and adding that extra cost is only discouraging girls from joining,” Lakey said. “I have a 17-year-old son who plays hockey too, and all the parents on his team agree it doesn’t make any sense. Players within the same association shouldn’t be charged more.” CMHA says females who don’t want to pay the higher fee have the option of playing on a boys team. “Sure, they don’t pay the extra fee, but where’s the comfort level in that?” Lakey questioned. “The one girl on my son’s team goes into her own change room, which isn’t very nice, and otherwise gets to spend a small amount of time before and after games bonding with her team. Beyond that, boys are often more aggressive, and the game isn’t enjoyable.” Lakey and her co-complainant, Karen Esau, have what they believe is a ridiculously simple solution — charge an equal fee to everyone. “Obviously rep players pay more because they get more, prime ice time and things like that,” Lakey said. “But at the house level, there’s no reason all atom-aged, and peewee-aged and bantamaged players shouldn’t pay X amount across the board.” Lakey said she and Esau opted for the Human Rights Tribunal route when it became obvious CMHA wasn’t going to alter its policy. CMHA did survey its members in December/ January, presenting the entire membership with a choice between higher female fees and equal fees for all. “In regards to the proposed new policy regarding smaller teams (less than 16 players), which will directly affect the female divisions, which proposal do you support?” the survey asked. Option 1 - Only the smaller teams (such as female divisions) will pay the additional cost on a per team basis. Option 2 - All registrants will pay for and share the

additional cost of the smaller teams (such as the female division). CMHA hasn’t released the results of that survey. “They won’t divulge the results of it other than to say it was pretty even,” Lakey noted. “I’ve talked to a lot of people about this, and I’ve only heard one person say, ‘Why should I pay more if I don’t have girls?’” The HRT process will result in a resolution of some sort. The question is, will it be achieved the easy way or the hard way? BC Human Rights Tribunal spokesperson Steve Adamson offered to explain the HRT processes while also declining to confirm or deny the existence of a complaint from Lakey and Esau. The easy way would seem to have the two sides sitting down to hammer out a medi-

ated settlement. “We offer a process where one of our members or a contractor will help sort things out without a hearing,” Adamson said. If CMHA has no interest in a settlement, they can apply for an application to dismiss. “It can be approached in a whole variety of ways, but it all comes down to the other side having no case,” Adamson said. CMHA’s odds of success would seem low. Adamson said one third of the complaints HRT sees are rejected in the screening process. Lakey and Esau have cleared that first hurdle, which means their complaint has met some sort of HRT criteria. “If all else fails, the two parties move on to the hearing stage, which can take anywhere from one to five

days depending on the nature of the complaint, how many witnesses there are and how complicated the evidence is,” Adamson continued. “It’s a courtroomlike setting with one of our appointed tribunal members making the final decision. And ultimately, any orders made are enforceable in the BC Supreme Court.” Lakey does not want to see the complaint get to the hearing stage, although she and Esau said they’ll be prepared if it does. “If they opt for a settlement hearing, that would be better,” she said. “If it goes to a hearing, we’ll do our research. And we’re looking into representation right now, because there’s that saying that anyone who attempts to represent himself in a court of law has a fool for a client.” If the HRT process goes

the distance, it will be a long distance. Adamson said they’re booking hearings into 2013. Lakey said the wait will be worth it if they get what they want. “It’s not even for us right now, but for the future and a systemic resolution that makes it fair for everyone,” she said. CMHA president David Soltys was contacted for this story, and had this to say. “CMHA received the details of the complaint on Tuesday July 10, 2012. The board of directors will meet within the next thirty days to review the details of the complaint and decide on the best course of action,” he said. “We will release a statement after we have had the opportunity to meet but until then we will not be making any public comments on the issue.” sports@theprogress.com

Fine-tune the flop If you need to hit a highlofted flop shot, you have not used the entire green effectively, writes Jennifer Greggain In my column a few weeks ago, I addressed one of the shots I enjoy teaching the most, the classic chip and run shot. I received a lot of great feedback from this column, so I will now introduce a follow up to the chip and run shot, and discuss how to hit a high-lofted chip shot, AKA the ‘flop’ shot. Before I begin a lesson on the flop shot, I walk the student to an area of the practice hole with little green to work with, requiring a high lofted shot with as little roll as possible. I then state boldly to the student, “You should not be here!” Although students are surprised when I first say this, they quickly understand that we are talking about course strategy. One of the things great players have in common is that they don’t short-side themselves. If you put yourself into a situation where you need to hit a high-lofted flop shot, you have not used the entire green effectively. Now, on to the lesson. To successfully execute a flop shot, you must have the proper set up. Choose your highest lofted wedge, and ‘open’ the club face and your stance. If you don’t have at least a 56 degree sand wedge or lob wedge, now is the time to get one. Set up with the golf ball in the middle or slightly forward of your stance, and shift your weight to 75 per cent on your front foot. This pre-shifting forward allows your swing to be slightly steeper, and easier to ‘trap’ the ball and hit high shots. Now, unlike the chip and run shot, you will need to use your wrists. Take your swing back primarily with your shoulders, but through impact let your hands ‘slice’ under the ball and let your wrists naturally release. Be sure to still trap the ball in a downward motion, and avoid ‘scooping’ the ball up. To practice this, be sure to strike the ground in your practice swings, and not just sweep the top of the grass. The hardest part to teach about the flop shot is ‘feel.’ You will want to keep your shoulders, body and hands completely relaxed to let your wrists naturally release. If you are still having difficulty with the flop shot, I like to explain it with this simple analogy. Imagine you are in a water balloon tossing contest with a partner. As the game progresses, you step farther from one another. You know that if you throw the ball too hard, the balloon will burst in your partner’s hands. If you don’t throw it far enough, it will break on the ground at their feet. You must lob the balloon in the air with a smooth, deliberate tempo and soft hands. Try beginning your practice session by softly lobbing some golf balls in the air, with as little roll as possible. Then start hitting some chip shots with the same soft feel. My bottom line advice on the flop shot is to completely commit to the shot. The key is to remain assertive enough while still keeping a nice soft feel in your hands. Jennifer teaches golf to adults and juniors at the Chilliwack Golf Academy. She played professionally on tour for over 10 years, including 2 years on the LPGA. She was also named the 2010 CN Canadian Women’s Tour Low Teaching Pro of the Year. She can be contacted at 604-7989805, or at Jennifer@chilliwackgolf.com

In the hunt Chilliwack’s U-21 Pacific Coast League men travelled to the Interior last weekend for two must-win games. Needing points to keep their playoff hopes alive, Chilliwack invaded Penticton’s Kings Park Saturday for a game against the woeful Pinnacles. Chilliwack led 1-0 at halftime on a shot by striker Zenow Renaerts, who buried his fourth of the season. The locals kept the pressure on in the second half and put the game away when Jordan Leib struck for a late goal. The final was 2-0, sending Chilliwack on to Kamloops and a Sunday matchup with the unbeaten Heat. Playing in 35-plus degree temperatures at Thompson Rivers University’s Hillside Stadium, Chilliwack fell behind early. Kamloops led 1-0 within 10 minutes, but Chilliwack quickly equalized on a goal by striker Connor MacMillan. Hauled

down in the 18 yard box, he calmly converted the penalty shot for his eighth of the season. Chilliwack took the lead moments later when MacMillan volleyed a Renaerts cross to midfielder Dawson Lindahl, who beat the Kamloops keeper to put his squad up 2-1. But Kamloops didn’t let the lead stand for long. Two quick goals but the Heat up 3-2 at the half, and they added another late in the game to make the final 4-2. The three points Chilliwack (4-4-3) earned moved them into fifth place, one point behind the Mid Isle Highlanders (5-4-1). The team has one regular season home game remaining, July 21 at Townsend Park (2 p.m.) versus West Van FC.

Trent, Brock and Larissa Cote have been sharing three routes of The Progress to south Sardis residents for nearly a year. The eight-year-old twins and ten-year-old big brother make Tuesday and Thursday after-school time into a bit of a competition to see if they can break an earlier set time record.

If you fit into one of these categories and have not been contacted by Welcome Wagon, please call... Carol 604-858-4662 3-09F WW6

Brock's initiative for getting a paper route was to save up for a computer. Now that he has purchased one, he has set his sights on a backpacking trip through Europe when he turns 16. While most of what they earn is put into a savings account, Larissa is putting some of her money towards hair accessories and nail polish. Trent is saving for more Skylanders and other computer games.

ANGLICAN

William Sanders passed away peacefully on July 3, 2012 at the Chilliwack General Hospi- SANDERS tal at the age of 90 years. He was born in Winnipeg, Manitoba on January 5th 1922 in the dead of a prairie winter. That cold start to life no doubt was a great start in building his strong will to survive. He was a Veteran of the Second World War and one of the fortunate to ﬁnd a wife from the Netherlands while in active service. He was an intelligent man who prided himself in keeping up with current affairs whether it was politics, sports or ﬁnance he had an opinion on the subjects and would not be ashamed to speak his mind. He enjoyed watching all the sports but he was particularly keen on Football. Had he not injured his back after the war he would have loved to pursue the game but unable to play he did the next best thing and became a keen arm chair quarter back. He had a love for the Okanagan, Penticton in particular where he ended up living for most of his retirement years. He was sadly predeceased by his loving wife Hester (Keeman), Feb 14th 2004. He will be lovingly remembered by his eldest son Ted and grandchildren Natalie, Virginia, Victoria and Veronica, daughter Lorraine (Mick) and granddaughter Michelle (Dean) and great grandson Shayle, son Al (Joyce) and grandchildren, Carey (Mason) and great grandson Ryden, and grandsons Chad & Christopher (Nicole) and son Edward (Shelley) and step granddaughters Anastasia and Angela (Adam) and step great grandson’s Isaac & Carter. He lived a long and healthy life and is now resting in peace. A private family memorial will be held. Woodlawn Mt. Cheam Funeral Home 45865 Hocking Avenue, Chilliwack, BC V2P 1B5 (604) 793.4555
