Residents riled over proposed expansion BY ADRIAN MACNAIR Mission Record
A proposed gravel extraction project in Lake Errock that would expand current mining operations has frustrated some residents. Robert Muckle owns a cabin and a kilometre of waterfront property, and says the pit would be located too close to existing homes which are literally a stone’s throw away. Extraction already takes place on the cliffside known as Deroche Bench and is a visible scar on the lakefront, ruining the panoramic vista of Lake Errock, he said. “It’s certainly not that any of us are against gravel or gravel mining per se. It’s just that
when it’s happening right next door to your recreation property or your home, your principal property, it’s extremely disturbing,” he said, adding it’s excessive when so many other mines in the Fraser Valley already exist. But Abbotsford-Mission MLA Randy Hawes, a former minister of state for mining, says it’s an “unfortunate act of nature” that the highest quality aggregate happens to be located in Lake Errock. “It’s not a matter of saying, well, let’s put the gravel pits where we want.” Hawes says he understands the residents of Lake Errock are looking for a politician to come to their aid against the gravel mining companies, but politicians have no power to interfere
in the mining application process. “The day a politician starts to say, ‘you can’t permit that one because the people don’t want it,’ that’s the day that a politician could really say, ‘you can’t permit that one because my brother has a competing business.’” Walter Neufeld, president of the FVRD Citizens Association, says Hawes’ comments are typical in that nobody has taken the concerns of the community seriously. The benchmark for meeting acceptable conditions for the ministry of mines is so low that almost no applications are rejected, he said. SEE GRAVEL PAGE 3

plaguing dog walkers Traveling in groups will lessen chance of encounter BY CAROL AUN Mission Record
A group of dedicated canine walkers at an unofficial dog park, just outside Fraser River Heritage Park, want people and their pets to return to the area despite coyote sightings nearby. Friends Jo Catharell and Florence Graham say the area is usually busy with up to 30 walkers on any given morning around 9 a.m., but there were only a handful to be seen Friday. “A lot of people aren’t coming now because of the coyotes,” said Catharell, who has been walking her dogs Sephora and Savvy on the trail for four years. Graham added she doesn’t go around the field anymore. The women want to take back
the area from the coyotes and to do that, they say people need to return with their pooches. There have always been coyotes in the area, but the problem is worse this year, said Lisa, who didn’t want to give her last name. Lisa was confronted by a couple of the creatures last week and has heard of other dogs being attacked. “In the past, when [coyotes] see us, they would go back in the bush,” said Lisa. But the situation is different now. Catharell’s dog, Sephora, was bit by one of them two weeks ago. Sephora was rounding the corner when she spotted two coyotes, recalled Catharell. The dog began to chase them away, but one turned around and bit Sephora on her hind leg, before darting into the bush.
At what point will the coyotes go from targeting dogs to children, Lisa questioned. Don Brown, manager at Fraser River Heritage Park, says coyotes have frequented that area for years, but he has never seen any during the day inside the park boundaries. “Coyotes generally work in packs and are never alone,” said Sgt. Steve Jacobi with the Conservation Officer Service (COS), adding at this time of year, they are protecting their young. Coyotes are not dangerous to people, but they can get habituated and comfortable around people if there is food around. Jacobi has heard reports of coyotes following people, but the animals are likely looking for lunch. The officer reminded people to pick up their garbage and encouraged dog walkers
to keep their pets on a leash in suspect areas. He also suggested people to travel in groups as this lessens the chance of an encounter. If a coyote gets in a fight with a dog, one coyote won’t win, but the pack can destroy any dog regardless of size, Jacobi noted. The COS will investigate if they hear a coyote has attacked a person or pet. “We’ll call the complainant ... and in most cases, if we can find the offending coyote, the one that has caused the problem, we’ll try to call them out and destroy them,” said Jacobi. Coyotes will not get relocated because they are social animals and being out of their element would destroy them. To report a coyote encounter, call the COS at 1-877-9527277.
Coyote safety Wildlife encounters in a community like ours, which is bordered by large stretches of forests and natural habitat, are not surprising, and anyone venturing outside should be aware of the possibility. Coyotes can pose a risk to people, especially children, and pets, when they are provided with food sources outside of their natural habitat. The provincial Wildlife Act deems it an offence to feed dangerous wildlife, including coyotes, bears and cougars. If you are approached by a coyote take the following actions: • make yourself look as large as possible • wave your arms • shout at the coyote • throw sticks or stones in its direction • Don’t run or turn your back on the coyote, but slowly move to safety. For more information and coyote safety tips, please visit the provincial Ministry of Environment’s website at www.env.gov.bc.ca Source: District of Mission
Gravel pit decisions can not be made politically: Hawes FROM RESIDENTS PAGE 1
There was a public information meeting July 25 in Mission inviting residents to comment on a proposed quarry, but Neufeld said the ministry doesn’t take into consideration input from residents anyway. “There is one individual
who holds all the power. And that’s the chief mines inspector,” said Muckle, adding there isn’t enough being done to preserve the ecology and environment of Lake Errock. But Hawes said if local government were given overriding powers to block mines, then no municipal politicians would allow mining in their
communities since local residents would hold them responsible in elections. “You can’t make these decisions on a political basis,” he said, adding concerns from Lake Errock resident are largely based on self-interest and not ecology. Hawes has been working with the Fraser Valley Regional District since 2004 to enact
the Aggregate Pilot Project (APP), a regional bylaw application process governing aggregate operations that includes mining companies, municipalities, and the ministry of mines. If the APP goes ahead then local government bylaws pertaining to quarrying could be taken into consideration during the permit pro-
cess, said Hawes. But Muckle believes the APP is a “backroom document created by the aggregate industry” that still wouldn’t give local government the power to stop mining permits. “What the APP is doing is giving the aggregate industry carte blanche ability to rezone areas anywhere they please at
their own choosing,” he said, adding it can override local zoning bylaws such as Lake Errock’s resort-residential. A tri-colour mapping scheme is proposed under the APP where future gravel pits may be allowed, tolerated with restrictions, or banned from future expansion (though existing operations are grandfathered in).

Special sensors to probe diesel exhaust pollution A specialized roadside system will test diesel pollution from trucks, buses and other heavyduty vehicles over the next three months to help guide future initiatives to curb emissions. Infrared and ultraviolet beams from a parked test trailer pass through the
exhaust plume of heavy trucks as they pass and data is read by a detector across the road. The province’s AirCare program is slated to be dismantled for regular vehicles by the end of 2014, but the government held out the possibility it may be replaced by a bolstered
program targeting truck pollution, which currently is subject to only mobile tests through the AirCare On Road program. “This study is a good first step to help us gain better understanding of diesel emissions from the transportation sector in the Lower Mainland, and

Metro Vancouver, which is responsible for air quality in the region, has also begun a non-road diesel emission reduction program, which charges fees on older heavily polluting machinery, such as excavators and forklifts, while offering owners incentives to upgrade or replace them. “Now it’s time to find ways to reduce emissions from on-road vehicles too,� said Metro environment committee chair Heather Deal. “These trucks and buses travel through our communities, close to places where we live, work and play.� The province is a partner with Metro Vancouver, the Fraser Valley Regional District and Port Metro Vancouver in the new roadside emission test program, slated to cost $130,000.

Record check trend draws privacy warning Some info searches tap PRIME police database BY JEFF NAGEL Black Press
B.C. Privacy Commissioner Elizabeth Denham is warning both the provincial government and private sector employers are making too much use of criminal record checks. She issued an investigation report recommending the province limit its use of checks, which are used to vet prospective employees and re-screen some existing staff. “I’m concerned about the societal trend towards increased employmentrelated records checks without clear evidence as
to their benefit in safeguarding the workplace,” Denham said. Record checks are important tools in hiring staff who will work with vulnerable adults or children or wield great spending or data-access powers, she said. But in some cases, she said, government conducts ongoing or multiple criminal record checks on the same employee, adding that shouldn’t happen without a justifiable reason. Denham also wants the province to report publicly on its use of record checks. B.C. Civil Liberties Association executive director David Eby said the problem is not just criminal record checks but broader police information checks that also pull in data recorded in the PRIME-BC police database. Most of the B.C. popu-
lation is in PRIME — often as witnesses, 911 callers or other contacts in a police investigation — and some are recorded as having had “adverse contact” with police. That designation can spell rejection for a job applicant or prospective tenant who agrees to a request for a police information search, Eby said. “It’s completely at the discretion of the police and it’s incredibly overused,” Eby said of the “adverse contact” designation in the database. The box can be checked for someone who was insistent on their rights in dealing with police, he said, or even in cases where someone attempts suicide and their family or friends call police. “This database was never meant to be used to prevent people from getting apartments or job opportunities,” Eby said.
“But it’s become a database for employers, landlords and schools. It’s got this creeping functionality to it that needs to be reined in.” The over-reliance on checks is also unfortunate in cases where people who do have a criminal past are now trying to change their path, he added. “Often people have stopped using drugs and are trying to clean up their lives and get back to work,” he said. “They’re being frustrated by this.” Denham’s report said adverse contact designations are not court-tested and the use of police information checks by employers is much more privacy invasive and difficult to justify in comparison to criminal record checks. She recommended B.C. public agencies not use police information checks.

Judge orders Chysyk not to enter Mission BY ADRIAN MACNAIR Mission Record
The man police say is responsible for a oneman crime wave of about 90 thefts from vehicles in the district over a sixweek time period has been ordered not to visit Mission by a judge. Dylan Chysyk, 23, has been in and out of prison for breaking into cars and stealing various items to feed his drug habit, garnering the full attention of Mission RCMP Insp. Richard Konarski. “He’s a huge problem for our community,” he said, adding local police now recognize Chysyk on sight. Almost by coincidence,
Mission’s Dylan Chysyk, 23, has been banned from the District of Mission as per a judge’s order. RCMP PHOTO
he was picked up by police the same night Konarski mentioned Chysyk was a problem during his presentation of Mission
RCMP’s quarterly report to municipal council last month. Having recently been released back onto the streets after a two-week stint in jail, a resident reported somebody suspiciously peering into cars around 2 a.m. on July 18. When police responded, they found Chysyk lurking about, a violation of his probation. A judge has since released Chysyk under stricter conditions, including an order to visit a drug rehabilitation facility in Langley, and not enter the District of Mission municipal boundaries. Konarski said Chysyk
now has an opportunity to get some treatment and turn his life around. Residents need to realize that criminals often look for the easiest opportunities, and locking vehicles and removing valuables from sight is the best deterrent to would-be thieves, said Konarski. “The hardest thing about crime prevention is that until it actually affects you, you don’t think about it.” Crime prevention is also a partnership with other agencies, such as frontline workers in poverty reduction, drug and alcohol counselling, and the fire department, he said.

OPINION
Published and printed by Black Press Ltd. at Mission at 33047 First Ave., V2V 1G2
Uneven sentences Canada’s crime rate is at a 30-year low, but despite this good news story, people still feel the justice system is too lax on criminals. Recent sentencings, like that of shamed senior RCMP officer Monty Robinson, give credence to people’s cries of foul. For obstructing justice in the hit-and-run death of Orion Hutchinson, he received a small conditional sentence and a temporary curfew. This is in contrast to the sentencing of the Stanley Cup rioters. But in comparison, most child pornography convictions rarely receive jail time. A conditional sentence is the most common sentence for the crime, even if the perpetrator is not just looking at child porn but distributing it. Convicted pedophiles usually do see the inside of a jail cell, but sentences range and usually aren’t longer than two years — nothing in comparison to the lifetime conviction they have inflicted on their victims. It is particularly troubling that in this study on crime rates, the offence which saw the largest increase was child pornography, which jumped 40 per cent in 2011 from 2010, say police. The judicial system doesn’t appear to take sexual crimes against children as seriously as it does rioters or even tax evaders. The provincial government wanted to send a strong message that those who riot will pay for the crime they committed. The message was heard loud and clear by our judges who by B.C. judicial standards, are handing down harsh sentences. If our government can carry that kind of weight and influence with the provincial judicial system in sending a message of deterrence for rioting, can it not send an even stronger message to protect our children from predators? - Langley Times

Reflecting on a bit of excess W
e hit a significant milestone in the house not long ago. We ran out of tinfoil. Now, you ask, what the heck kind of a milestone is that? Well, it is in the sense that we have not run out of tinfoil for the past 10 years. That is to say, in terms of the same roll of tinfoil... I’ve run out of time. I’ve run out of patience. I’ve run out of sunny optimism. I’ve even run out of things to say. But I’ve never run out of tinfoil. That’s because we had more tinfoil than patience, time, optimism, and most everything else – thanks to a big box warehouse store that sells massive quantities of everyday stuff. My wife – generally a minimalist in most respects – ventured in there about a decade ago, and was overcome by the bigness of it all. She temporarily lost her mind. She came home with enormous quantities of dish soap, toilet paper, canned mushroom soup, shampoo, and one immense roll of tinfoil.
That thing was at least two feet wide, and long enough to ... well, last 10 years. There was enough tinfoil on that tube to make protective anti-alien-ray hats for 500 whackos. Instead, it wrapped 500 roast chickens and barbecued salmon. And thus, a long legacy came to an end (puns intended). I’m not big on mega-quantity purchasing. That’s not too surprising, I suppose, considering our small family of three. Oh, I get the And cost savings attraction. A box of Cheerios the size of a Smart Car is cheaper than 20 normal boxes of Cheerios. And a whole lot less packaging, too. That’s definitely a good thing. But then there you are, a small family stuck with all that cereal. Or that 45-gallon drum of shampoo. Now you have to use it every morning of every
day, for as long as it takes to use it all up. I like variety. Who wants to see and smell the same shampoo for 1,295 days? It’s sort of like eating the same thing for dinner for months on end. Which is something you can also do if you buy an entire skid of Can ‘o’ Goo pasta. That only makes sense if you’re feeding an army of children with undeveloped tastebuds. And there it is – mega-sized purchasing does work for mega-sized rew families. But it doesn’t explain the stationery supplies. Who could possibly need 36 (plus one more as a bonus!) ballpoint pens? For that matter, who uses pens anymore? Certainly not for writing letters! Grocery lists, maybe. Imagine how many grocery lists you could write with 36 ballpoint pens. But if you shop at the
Guest Column
Holota
mega-warehouse, then you probably only do a halfdozen grocery lists a year, since you buy enough supplies in one go to last two months. Maybe it’s just me. I like going shopping every weekend, poking around the aisles, buying the bits and pieces I need ... or don’t need. And if I don’t need them, why would I want 24 of the same thing? I think this part of the world has become a bit obsessed with the “bigger and more is better” concept. We’ve become so acquainted with excess that it doesn’t even seem excessive any longer. In fact, we welcome opportunities to supersize the excess. A visit to a Third World country would do us all good. I am going to miss that big old roll of tinfoil though. I never did get around to make myself a protective anti-alien-ray hat. Andrew Holota is the editor of The Abbotsford News, a sister publication of The Mission Record.

WATER RESTRICTIONS MAY 1 - SEPTEMBER 30
Trustees not following a union-first agenda Editor, The Record: Re: Put Mission students first, July 26 edition. As an English teacher, I’m always on the lookout for good examples of irony. Randy Hawes’ recent letter certainly abounds with incongruous remarks. First and foremost is his suggestion that Mission’s current school trustees are acting against students’ best interests by downsizing upper management at the School board office. Considering the financial crisis the board is experiencing is largely due to chronic underfunding by his Liberal government, Mr. Hawes’ provocative language is laughable. Or, rather, it would be if the consequences in the classroom weren’t so serious. Perhaps I missed it, but I don’t recall Mr. Hawes protesting the closing of schools in our community, or the laying-off of teachers and support staff, or the overcrowding of special needs students in regular classrooms. Why is he speaking out now on behalf of
redundant board administrators? Could it be that he is the one guilty of a hidden agenda, rather than the trustees he accuses? Mr. Hawes is well aware of the fact that school boards cannot run a deficit. By cutting administrative positions that do not directly impact students, our trustees offer the district the best operating plan for a challenging financial time. Just as teachers and support staff, individuals who actually work with children, are having to do more with less — due to cutbacks made in previous years — it is now necessary for upper management to find a way to do the same. Our trustees are not following a union first agenda, as Mr. Hawes claims. Eighty-five members of the Mission Teachers’ Union were laid off this spring. You may well imagine how upsetting this was for the affected teachers. We still do not know how many of these teachers will be re-shuffled into positions and how

many have actually lost employment with MPSD. I do believe Mr. Hawes is overstating his case when he declares that the new board stripped the superintendent of his power to make administrative decisions. It is my understanding that the trustees told the superintendent how much had to be cut from the budget and then left it to him to decide how to accomplish the savings. Mr. Hawes also errs when he claims only two administrators remain at the school board office. I know there to be at least four. Hopefully, the superintendent and his team can adjust to the harsh reality shared by all of us working within the B.C. educational system. As educators we must pull together to do the best we can for the children under our care despite the funding shortfalls inflicted upon us by the indifferent Liberal government Mr. Hawes represents.

The Mission Record Thursday, August 2, 2012 9
Difference between ignoring and considering recommendations Editor, The Record: Re: Previous council was penny wise, pound foolish, July 26. It isn’t often that a sitting councillor chooses to lash out through the opinion pages of local media, but apparently former councillor Paul Horn’s letter struck a nerve with Dave Hensman. Perhaps he should be forgiven, as the last week hasn’t been particularly kind to the CRMG (Citizens for Responsible Municipal Government). First, their much-anticipated core review did nothing but shine a very bright spotlight on the foundation of sand upon which the new council built their election campaign and strategic plan. This was followed up in short-order by council member(s) throwing the community into turmoil by bashing a very respected senior staff member in public for doing nothing more, nor less, than providing value-added service within their existing budget and mandate. Now, on top of a good drubbing here in this forum by a cross-section of the public, the CRMG and Mr. Hensman in particular, are having their rather selective interpretation of events challenged by those who have been paying close attention to what is actually being said and done by this council. Not the kind of “transparency” I suspect Mr. Hensman would have chosen at this juncture. No matter, it is clear from his letter that Mr. Hensman will continue to cling
to the myths that the Mission Messenger extolled and will continue to spin anything that can be used to cast the former council in role of “bad guy.” It should be noted, however, that there is a very real difference between “ignoring” staff recommendations and “considering” them in the fullness of the larger context of a municipal budget. Mr. Hensman will learn this over the next year or so. He will also learn the realities of local governance, such as the very real economic cost of alienating the district workforce and the cost of clinging to the myth of “doing more with less.” Only through economic diversification of the tax-base will council “do more,” a fact that former councillor Horn and the rest of the previous council understood very well, and took very large steps to address. The fruits of those labours, in the form of increased retail/commercial tax flow into the city coffers via the development strategies and efforts of those of us who came before, will be the “income growth” or “pennies” that Mr. Hensman and company now have at their disposal. It remains to be seen whether they can rise above the rhetoric and justifications for their recent behaviours and start governing. The initial signs are not encouraging. Mike Scudder Mission Editor’s note: Mr. Scudder is a former Mission councillor and was not re-elected this past November.

Killer driver gets two years in jail BY MONIQUE TAMMINGA Black Press
A driver who killed one of his young passengers and injured three others in a horrific crash in 2007 on 0 Avenue in Langley was sentenced to two years in jail last Thursday. Antonio Santini, 32, was also sentenced to 18 months probation and faces a five-year driving ban after he gets out of jail. He has to pay a victim surcharge and was
ordered to provide the courts with a DNA sample. The crash killed 17-year-old Mission resident Renee Newson. In January, Santini, who is also from Mission, pleaded guilty to dangerous driving causing death and two charges of dangerous driving causing bodily harm back in B.C. Supreme Court in New Westminster. At the time of the deadly crash, Santini, then 27, offered to take Newson, who was an
acquaintance of his, and her friends out and drive them around. The crash occurred when Santini’s 2002 Chevrolet Cavalier sedan, traveling west bound on 0 Avenue at a high rate of speed, lost control on a speed hump, sending the car airborne, shearing off a utility pole, rolling several times and coming to rest upside-down in the middle of Boundary Road, on the U.S. side of the border. Newson was ejected
from her vehicle and ended up in a ditch on the U.S. side of the road. It’s believed she was wearing a seatbelt and the impact of the crash also dislodged and ejected the car’s seat. A friend of Newson’s told Black Press back in 2007, that her father saw the Cavalier after the crash and said there was nothing left of it. It’s unknown what injuries Santini suffered. Police attributed the accident to excessive

speed. The other girls in the car suffered various degrees of non-lifethreatening injuries. The court also learned that Santini had been in another collision following this crash. It isn’t known why it took five years for the case to go through the courts.

B.C. doctors approve new funding deal amid protest Faction opposed latest division of medical cash BY JEFF NAGEL Black Press
B.C. doctors have voted to ratify a new four-year master agreement with the province. The B.C. Medical Association said the deal provides $100 million to continue and expand medical programs until 2014 as well as a “modest� lift in doctors’ fees to cover their overhead costs. The fee increase is 0.5 per cent in each of the next two years and would be renegotiated for the final two years of
the agreement. It also expands various incentives for family practice doctors to develop care plans for complex care, chronic disease and mental health patients and to increase access to family doctors. But the 92 per cent vote in favour is being contested by a faction of physicians who don’t like how the pot of medical funding is being divided. Those opposed say the outcome is illegitimate because most members didn’t vote and a further 3,000 to 4,000 nonBCMA members couldn’t vote. Dr. Zafar Essak said the agreement will expand the health care bureaucracy and muzzle doctors, who will be barred from speaking up for patients without approval of government officials.
“Most doctors are fed up and want to hold the government and the BCMA accountable for the current crisis in our health care system,� Essak said. Also unhappy is the B.C. Anesthesiologists’ Society, which campaigned for higher pay for its members and went to the brink of a service withdrawal this spring to try to win the right to bargain separately from the BCMA. BCAS executive director Dr. Roland Orfaly said wait lists have grown longer despite greatly increased funding funnelled through the BCMA — now more than $3.6 billion a year. “It’s been a colossal failure at the taxpayers’ expense and simply pouring more money into a dysfunctional BCMA process is not going to make the problem
go away,� he said. BCMA officials contend specialist groups like the anesthesiologists, who got much more rapid fee increases than most doctors in past years, are simply irked because their pay is no longer rising as fast under the latest apportionment between physician groups. “They’ve had quite a few increases,� BCMA president Dr. Shelley Ross said. “In tough economic times you’re not going to get as much as you want.� She said anesthesiologists also benefit from one key gain negotiated in the new deal — an extra $20 million to recruit and retain specialists. Ross said spending of that money will be overseen by independent arbitrators, not the BCMA.

When Allana and Amanda Purcell walked to the outdoor altar July 19 at Fraser River Heritage Park, the twins realized a lifelong dream of getting married together. Allana married her boyfriend of 15 years, Jason Thiessen, while Amanda (Mandy) married Scott Shellop, whom she’s been with for two years. Allana says Scott proposed to Mandy last Christmas and that got the ball rolling. “It was stirring in my mind for about a month and so I asked Jason if he wanted to marry me,” said Allana, laughing at the thought of the role reversal. It might seem strange to some people to think of sharing the spotlight of their wedding day with another couple, but that wasn’t the case with the twins. “Mandy and I have always dreamt that it would be so cool to have a double wedding and get married at the same time,” she said, adding she wasn’t sure it was ever going to happen. Mandy said they “butted sisterly heads” a few times on the

wedding plans but the plan finally came together. At first she was surprised when Allana approached her with the idea because she’d been with Jason for so long she figured they didn’t want to ever get married. “But she said, ‘no, I will if we do it together,’” said Mandy. That was when the memories of the plans they’d made as 10-year-olds playing with Barbies came rushing back. The two turned 38 on July 26, following up their wedding day with their first birthday as married women. Getting married at the park, just below the Grotto of Our Lady
of Lourdes, also gave the twins a perfect chance to stay close to the Mission Folk Music Festival, which began on their wedding night. Though they live across the river in Abbotsford now, the two have been volunteering at the festival for the past 12 years. After the wedding party, they crawled into a tent to prepare for the three-day music festival. The twins had family turnout from Mission and Abbotsford, but also from Skookumchuck, a First Nations reserve near Pemberton on the Sunshine Coast. To honour their aboriginal heritage they wore a few symbols along with their wedding dresses.

Soggy roots not required Give plants the right amount of water. Many problems with shrubs, hedges and perennials result from over-watering. Before you water, check the soil to a depth of 10cm to 15cm. If it is moist, it is not necessary to add more water. A healthy lawn only needs 1 inch of water a week and that includes rainfall! Properly watering your landscape can result in significant water savings. To sign up for a free irrigation or landscape assessment call 604-864-5514.

VPD investigating reports Jepsen’s computer hacked Pop star Carly Rae Jepsen has reportedly been hacked and nude photographs stolen from her computer. According to paparazzi entertainment tab-
loid TMZ, the "Call Me Maybe" star contacted the Vancouver Police Department in March to report the theft. The VPD is trying to help Jepsen find a man
accused of hacking into her computer, who later attempted to sell them to the media. VPD spokesperson Const. Lindsey Houghton said the investigation is
moving to a phase where charges may soon be laid. Police say a male suspect from outside Vancouver has been identified.
Although no pictures of her have surfaced on the Internet, the 26-year-old took to Twitter to deny reports of a pixellated video claiming to be a sex tape involving Jepsen:
“Crazy morning. Discovered that someone put up a sex tape claiming to be me. Ridiculous. Obviously not me,” she wrote July 23. Jepsen, originally from

Bball team must win Friday In a very tight contest from start to finish, Canada was unable to knock off the eighth-ranked French team, as Canada’s late fourth quarter comeback fell short, 64-60 Wednesday morning. The loss puts Canada’s basketball record to 1-2 in the London Olympics, and forces the team into a position where they must win Friday’s game against FIBA Americas zone rival, Brazil. The Canadians need this win to put them into the group B quarter-finals. Canada was led by Hamilton’s Shona Thorburn who was able to follow up her solid performance versus Great
Britain on Monday by scoring a game-high 17 points, while recording four rebounds and three assists in the loss to France. Natalie Achonwa (Guelph, ON) scored 14 points and grabbed a game-high eight rebounds in the game. Mission’s Kim Smith netted eight points, while point guard Teresa Gabriele was kept to zero. France came out from the opening whistle ready to go, as they quickly grabbed the lead from Canada and opened the game on an 11-4 run. The game began with both teams not allowing many easy baskets, as both teams defensive intensity
was turned up. Canada closed the opening quarter on an 8-2 run and ended the frame down 13-12. In the second quarter, France went on a small run, but Canada was able to bounce back with a quick five-point swing which cut the deficit to 23-21. To begin the second half of play, both Canada and France kept the game close, until France was able to pull away with a seven-point lead. Late in the quarter, Canada was able to cut the deficit to two points by the end of the quarter. France entered the final frame with a slim
42-40 lead. France was able to extend their lead to seven points with 0:53 left in the quarter. Canada didn’t go down without a fight and gave France a scare late in the game. Canada was able to cut the lead to a one possession game 62-60 with 0:09 seconds, but France connected on key freethrows down the stretch and finished the game with the 64-60 victory.

Dine and dress for diversity Get ready for an intercultural event this summer, sponsored by the Mission International Cultural Association (MICA). In the interest of promoting intercultural awareness and fundraising for intercultural events, MICA aims to showcase the diversity of cultures in our community. In the past months, MICA has organized supper and entertainment events — a Japanese night with proceeds sent to our sister city, Oyama, to assist in the Great Japan Earthquake Relief; a Ukrainian night to assist in the Horn of Africa Famine Relief; and most recently, a spaghetti supper — a joint effort with the local Rotary Club to fundraise for upcoming events. Now MICA is planning an event to recognize the international cultural diversity within our own community. On Saturday, Aug. 18 MICA will present Dress and Dine for
Diversity. This will be a special evening of international food, art, entertainment and style. Guests are encouraged to dress in traditional clothing from their home countries, and join in tasting traditional foods from Africa, Japan, India, the Mediterranean, Europe and First Nations. Add to this, taiko drummers, Bhangra dancers and other cultural entertainments, as well as a live art auction, and you can expect a gala evening. So please mark your calendars for Dine and Dress for Diversity, on Saturday, Aug. 18 from 7:30 p.m. at the Cedarbrooke Chateau, 32331 Seventh Ave. in Mission. Tickets are $50 per person, and available from Murdoch’s Books, Mission Community Services, and Mission Municipal Hall. Donations and sponsorships are most welcome. For further information, please call Pam Alexis at 604-302-2005.
Getting kids back to nature 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 thought provoking book titled Last Child in the Woods – Saving our Children from Nature-Deficit Disorder, explores the disconnect between the lack of nature in our kids’ 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 student will have received 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 (Click on Mission Trails Challenge 2012). At this link you’ll also find maps to the location of each trailhead, some interesting trail features, safety info on bears and cougars, and trail etiquette. It’s all in our nature so get outside and take a hike.

Since the last Transportation Master Plan in 1996, Mission has experienced a period of sustained moderate growth. According to Census Canada, Missions 2011 population is about 36,500 and estimated to be approximately 55,000 by 2035. The district now requires the review and evaluation of the existing transportation system to determine overall transportation needs over the next 25 years. The Transportation Master Plan will identify what road upgrades are required to meet current and future growth needs, pedestrian and cyclist needs and improve movement of goods for businesses. Further public
consultation will take place once the study is underway however your input now can help better to focus the study at the outset. Copies of the questionnaire are also available at the municipal hall in the engineering department. • The survey will remain open until Friday, Oct. 14, 2012. The participants’ inputs will be reviewed for inclusion in the district’s study. • Visit the online survey at www. Mission.ca to have your say how Mission should improve its road and transportation systems. • Your participation is very much appreciated!

Superstars rockin in Mission The biggest country music festival in the Fraser Valley kicks off this Thursday at Mission Raceway Park. Headlining this year’s show are superstars like Randy Bachman, George Canyon, Dwight Yoakam and Blue Rodeo. The legendary Randy Bachman is always a fan favourite. The veteran rock and roller has been in the music industry for more than four decades, beginning with The Guess Who. The talented singer, songwriter, performer and producer has over 110 gold and platinum albums/single awards from around the world. Nove Scotia-born George Canyon rose to fame in 2004 on USA Network’s Nashville Star. Now with two Junos and a handful of Canadian Country Music Awards, Canyon is doing what he loves. He has sold over 300,000 albums and is using his influences to support Canadian troops in Afghanistan and find a cure for Type 1 Diabetes. Yoakham is a Kentucky native who has sold more than 25 million albums worldwide. He has 12 gold and nine platinum or multi-platinum albums. Yoakham also has two Grammys in his collection.
Blue Rodeo is arguably Canada’s most popular roots rock band, and has become a favourite to see live. Blue Rodeo emerged in the 1980s and has won numerous accolades and awards including seven Junos and a key to Toronto (the band’s hometown). Other acts in the weekend lineup include Vancouver’s Ridley Bent, Pitt Meadow’s Araon Pritchett, 2010 Canadian Country Music Association Female Vocalist of the Year Victoria Banks, and Mission favourite, Kenny Hess. “This year’s Rockin’ River is easily the biggest and best we’ve ever put together,” said Hess, the festival’s organizer and one of its performers. “The talent Rockin’ River Fest has this year promises festival-goers one of the best times they’ll have all year.” Tickets for the pre-festival party on Thursday are $35, and general admission for single day tickets are $85 on Friday and Saturday. A three-day pass is $155. Reserved seating tickets range from $105 to $120 for one day and $175 to $210 for a threeday pass.

Bernie and Red are back at Fraser River Heritage Park for the Envision Twilight Concert Series on Friday, Aug. 3 from 7 to 8 p.m. Bernie and Red’s humour is based on husband and wife situations and the joys and challenges of marriage and family life. Bernie is the straight man who lets fly with one liners, but Red is the one who holds centre stage most of the time. Red is brash, outspoken, a little outrageous at times, and very funny. She also has a great voice, and her musical numbers are integral to the act. Bernie and Red have performed all over the world – from Alaska to Panama, from China to Singapore, and every state and province in North America. The concert partner for this evening is Cedarbrooke Chateau.
FIVE TYPES OF PRAYER There is no limit to the kinds of prayer which are possible, since prayer is any genuine attempt to communicate with God, but there are five types of prayer which seem to be virtually universal. The first type of prayer is the prayer of thanks. Many of the faithful start and end each day by thanking God, and there is always something to be thankful for, including our very existence. The second type of prayer is the prayer of confession or contrition, where we confess our sins to God. This is often framed in terms of what we have done wrong or what we have failed to do, and should include improper or unkind thoughts, and true remorse. A third type of prayer is the prayer of petition, the prayer which asks for God’s help. These prayers are sometimes thought unnecessary, since God presumably knows better than we do what we need, but it certainly feels right to ask God for help. A fourth prayer is the prayer of praise, where we extol or exalt God, typically for his goodness, power, or wisdom. The last type of prayer, which is often overlooked because it is more akin to meditation than to prayer, is when we simply feel ourselves in the presence of God who cares for and about us. The sense that there is a Supreme Being who is not indifferent to our suffering should become a way of being in the world, and something which we should strive for constantly.

may even be joined on one or two songs by her famous father. Also performing is Tyler Whelan. Born in Fort McMurray, Whelan was introduced at a young age to the world of music. Writing his own songs since he could play a chord, and playing since he could hold an instrument, it was only natural that Whelan should pursue his love of music. He connected with Johnny Gasparic of The Poverty Plainsman, an audio engineer, for his first solo album. With the help of Don Jorgensen, Brian Kelly, and Brad Johnson, the album Oldschool came to life. Shortly after the CD release, Whelan was introduced to fellow country musician Kenny Hess, who would ultimately become a friend and mentor. The concert partner for this evening is Rockin’ on the River Music Festival. “Envision has been proud to support the Envision Twilight Concert Series for the past 12 years,” says Carol Hamilton, branch manager at Envision Financial’s Mission location. The Art in the Park program continues with a variety of visual artists presenting their work each evening of Twilight. Bring a lawn chair or blanket for a fun evening at the park. The Blackberry Kitchen and The Log Cabin Café are open. Envision Twilight Concerts are a community, free-by-donation series. For more information call 604-826-0277.

REIMER, Peter P July 11, 1922 - July 29, 2012 It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our dear father, grandfather and great grandfather. He entered into the presence of the Lord Jesus at the age of 90 years. Peter was born in Blumenort, Siberia and immigrated to Canada with his family in 1926. In 1937, the Reimer family moved to Abbotsford and in 1947 Peter purchased a dairy farm on Harris Road, Matsqui. He married Stella Giesbrecht on February 8, 1948. A few months later they were forced out of their home by the flooding of the Fraser River. Peter and Stella continued on the farm until his retirement in 1978 when they moved to Abbotsford. Peter enjoyed working with his hands and often used his carpentry skills to volunteer for his church and community and in later years, turning it into a hobby, building chairs, tables and hope chests for his grandchildren and MCC. He is survived by his wife, Stella; five children, Sharon (Ben) Loewen, Luella (Dave) Thiessen, Doug (Glenda), Peter (Mariane), Shirley (Konrad) Golbeck; 22 grandchildren, 51 great grandchildren; sisters, Katherine Rempel, Mary Reimer, and many relatives and friends. He was predeceased by a great granddaughter Leah Stobbe. Visitation will be held Tuesday, August 7 from 7:30 - 9:00 pm at Woodlawn Funeral Home, 2310 Clearbrook Rd. A graveside service will be held on Wednesday, August 8 at 10:30a.m. at Maclure Road Mennonite Cemetery followed by a Memorial Service at Clearbrook MB Church, 2719 Clearbrook Road, Abbotsford at 1:00 p.m. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in his memory to the Gideons.

REGISTER NOW! In September, 220 adventurers took on the 2011 Innovative Fitness Canuck Place Adventure Challenge. Racers kayaked the calm waters of Deep Cove and Cultus Lake then set off on mountain or road bikes, before returning to tackle the trails on foot and racing back to finish to the cheers of onlookers.

While challenging themselves, each of the participants was reminded of the daily challenges of Canuck Place children. All of the racers raised the minimum of $1000 for Canuck Place—and many exceeded it—raising a record $285,000! An event such as this is the sum of many parts and we look forward to our 2012 event, aiming to incorporate what we have learned into an even better experience. We particularly want to thank our most generous and committed sponsors, for embracing our mission and helping to surpass our expectations. You help us to “embrace life”. We sincerely thank all the participants, donors, sponsors and volunteers for supporting Canuck Place with such immense spirit and enthusiasm! We look forward to another exciting year ahead!
