The young bird was found by a group of fishermen a year ago along the Harrison Slough. She had two broken legs which healed incorrectly, and she also had open wounds on her chest as a result of her not being able to walk properly. The eagle was cared for and rehabilitated over the course of one year and was released back into the wild, close to where she was originally found.

Property crime increasing in district: Konarski BY CAROL AUN Mission Record

Property crime in Mission is rising, according to the RCMP’s third quarter statistics, but the types of property being hit is both positive and negative. The largest spike was in theft from vehicles at 63 per cent. From January to September in 2011, there were 322 reported cases, and 524 during the same time period in 2012.

Other increases were residential break-ins (25 per cent), other break-ins (26 per cent), and theft under $5,000 (17 per cent). Categories that have had a decrease in crime from January to September from 2011 to 2012 are business break-ins (-57 per cent), theft over $5,000 (-55 per cent), theft of motor vehicle (-44 per cent), and stolen property (-14 per cent). RCMP Insp. Richard Konarski says police are frustrated, and at the end of the year, depart-

ments in the Lower Mainland are supposed to have dropped five per cent in property crime, but Mission is going to opposite direction. The high number of thefts can’t be attributed to a single source, said Konarski, relaying information from Mission’s crime analyst that it’s simply a lot of people doing a lot of low-end thefts. This generally means thieves are flipping the stolen goods for drugs, said the inspector. The next step is to identify any frequent of-

fenders who could be contributing to the problem, he said. One of the most common items stolen out of a vehicle is a woman’s purse, said Konarski. Even if you are leaving your car for a minute, take your purse with you. The inspector has also seen packs with laptops left in vehicles and other valuables. Police will be increasing their presence in the community, and residents can also protect their belongings by securing valuable items and making sure they are out of sight.

Downtown planning now underway By Jason Roessle Mission Record

About 130 people attended Thursday night’s downtown planning session, marking the first step towards creating a plan to reshape the First Avenue area. An open house started off the night, where members of the public were able to read the storyboards and speak to some of the consultants and planners from HB Lanarac, the company tasked with formulating the plan. A brief presentation by project manager Joaquin Karakas explained some of the challenges, opportunities and realities of the plan. “Downtowns are the heart of the community and a source of local pride,” he noted. There needs to be a mix of uses, including housing, institutional, educational, and parks, all while attracting a combination of seniors and young adults to inhabit the area, said Karakas. The downtown is the “living room of the community, and a well designed downtown is important to protect the private investment” in the area, he continued. On the challenges side, Karakas said the perception of crime is a problem for all downtowns. “If people don’t feel safe, they won’t come,” he said. Also, the highway running through is a challenge, coupled with a lack of activity outside of regular business hours. “The downtown needs to be safe throughout the day,” Karakas said. More life can be brought down with more housing and pubs, for example. The project lead said there are lots of opportunities for the area, but one of the key problems is the underappreciation of the economic importance of downtown, and the overemphasis on beautification.

For the record In a Black Press editorial published in The Mission Record on Aug. 2, it was stated that a conditional sentence is commonly handed down by the courts for a conviction of viewing and/or distributing child pornography. In fact, The Criminal Code of Canada prohibits conditional sentences for convictions involving offences for which there is a minimum sentence. Since 2005, the Criminal Code has set minimum prison sentences for accessing and distributing child pornography. Black Press and The Record apologizes for the error. Furthermore, the editorial did not intend to suggest that government directly influences the judiciary.

What’s a charrette? It is an integrated, collaborative and timelimited design workshop where design professionals work together with district staff, council, public, and stakeholder representatives Karakas’ presentation dovetailed into a talk by Michael von Hausen, a planner and sustainable urban designer, who showed a number of slides designed to inspire the crowd for the workshop portion of the evening. Von Hausen has done six downtown plans in Canada, and said “most successful downtowns have incredible champions,” singling out Langley City Mayor Peter Fassbender as an example of someone who trumpeted his downtown and

to develop a number of preliminary design options. The condensed workshop is designed to quickly lead to creative outcomes that are well supported by participants. brought $200-million worth of investment within four years. “Sometimes people get consumed with limitations,” but the emphasis should be on creating downtown as a destination on an 18-hour basis that will draw in visitors from other communities, and includes three elements: social, environmental and economic. Successful downtowns generally are pedestrian oriented, said von Hausen, and include wide sidewalks that encourage strolling, as

well as free services such public washrooms, information kiosks, parking and wireless Internet zones. A dynamic, multi-use downtown needs to be fun, and a place for everyone, he said. Many small business owners feel threatened when big box retailers arrive, but von Hausen said many communities have successfully integrated the larger businesses by surrounding them with owner/operator stores. A big plus is making your space transformable, similar to how Rogers Arena could transition from a basketball court (when the Grizzlies were in Vancouver) to an icehockey rink within hours. Residents were split into five groups that spent about 90 minutes talking about different aspects of the downtown, and then relayed their thoughts to the larger group. There will be more opportunities for the public to comment and add input in the next number of months. The downtown plan, which is currently in the first of three phases, will use the information from the open house to frame discussions around how Mission’s area should look. In the second phase, the vision, principles and concept plan for the downtown will be created through a series of public and stakeholder workshops, including the downtown design charrette Jan. 16-17. (See box for additional information.) Based on phases one and two, a comprehensive plan will be developed that will include policies, guidelines and implementation strategies. Additionally, a mass e-mail list (downtown@mission.ca) has been compiled and receivers can suggest people to add, or forward the message, and the receiver can request to be included in future disseminations. This e-mail can also be used to send suggestions and feedback to consultants.

Letters are ‘fear mongering:’ Jewell By MaRia spitale-leisk Record contributor

Mission council was critical of some public feedback on the district’s 2013 budget, relating to fire department staffing levels. At Monday (Nov. 19) evening’s council meeting, Coun. Jeff Jewell spoke first during a discussion on the receipt of the comments, saying the pattern disturbs him. Jewell figured 21 out of the 28 resident submissions focused on one issue: increasing the number of full-time firefighters in the district. “What seems very clear to me is that we are being subjected to a coordinated campaign by the partisans of the fire department who want to see the expansion of the fire department,” said Jewell. “And they are doing this by a campaign of fear mongering to get citizens afraid that they are not safe.” Coun. Dave Hensman echoed councillor Jewell’s sentiments. “But I want to say as well to the writers of this creative writing exercise that we’re not stupid and

we see through the guise,” said Hensman. “And the community of Mission is not stupid either.” Capping off the discussion, Mayor Ted Adlem reflected on discussions he had with Mission Fire/ Rescue Service ahead of last year’s election. “I feel I made every effort to work with them, said Adlem. “However, recent activity leads me to believe that, to put it politely, I was kind of conned. So I wasn’t going to say this tonight, but I am going to say it: The full-time firefighting force in the District of Mission has lost the support of this mayor.” After the meeting, Adlem said the department didn’t like the zero per cent tax increase platform that his Citizens for Responsible Municipal Government slate ran in the election. “We’re talking about holding the line on spending and that doesn’t meet with their objectives of increasing their members,” said Adlem. Norm MacLeod, president of IAFF Local 4768, which represents full-time Mission firefighters,

said people were encouraged to send comments to council through a message on the union’s Facebook page. “It was actually my wording,” said MacLeod, of the duplicated messages sent to the district. “It was no way intended to be a letterwriting campaign.” The bottom line, said MacLeod, is the union’s goal of working with council and the municipality to improve fire protection. He referred to the Master Fire Plan developed in 2008 when Mission moved to a composite model, which has full-time and paid oncall firefighters. The plan was to hire four full-time firefighters annually over four years. Eight were hired between 2009-2010; now, they are calling for eight more. It’s about the ability to have a quicker response time, said MacLeod. Currently, evening fire calls are tackled by on-call firefighters. The extra eight full-time members would allow for a fully staffed hall at night.

Traditional school forum draws about 50 people Uniforms, accountability and respect top parents’ list By Jason Roessle Mission Record

About 100 “new” students would need to enrol in Mission school district to make a traditional elementary school financially viable, parents heard last Tuesday night. The acting district treasurer Wayne Jefferson, uttered the number after several parents asked what it would take, dollar-wise, to bring the idea to life. The board of school trustees held the public forum at Heritage Park Secondary School to get ideas from parents on what elements they would expect in a traditional elementary school. Uniforms were almost universally voiced, while high levels of accountability for actions, and enhanced respect shown towards students and teachers also making the top of the list. An Abbotsford Traditional school teacher spoke early in the evening and said the ideas of traditional schools should be adopted in all schools, as it would help “make kids the best students they can be.” A parents from the now-closed Durieu Elementary School, which ran a traditional model from 2008 until 2010, said support for the idea would be paramount to the plan’s success, as well as making busing available to the site from everywhere in the district. Trustees called for the forum after enrolment numbers were examined in September. Co-acting superintendent Randy Huth noted 172 students (including Summit Learning Centre) have withdrawn from the local school district. The majority, 105, moved out of province, but 42 migrated to an independent school. A lower number was seen at the secondary level, with 141 total withdrawals, and 86 moving to another province, with eight now attending an independent school. But some of the people present at the Nov. 13 forum said migrating Grade 7s into the high schools prompted parents to move their children elsewhere, and that the middle school model ought to be re-examined. A number of forum attendees also said there are too many parents who aren’t working hard enough at home to teach their children values, and that it isn’t teachers’ jobs to raise their students, but to educate them. Board chair Edie Heinrichs said after the meeting that the results from a survey currently circulating through the district will be cobbled together with feedback received last Tuesday, and another forum will likely be scheduled.

Birds of prey centre stage during annual festival By Maria Spitale-leiSk Record contributor

The eagle-to-human ratio was 1:1 for the main event of the annual Fraser Valley Bald Eagle Festival this past weekend, as 3,000 yellow-beaked birds of prey soared high above Harrison Mills. “Initial reports seem like we have smashed attendance records,” said FVBEF chair Jo-Anne Chadwick. A record number of eagles have returned to the area, eyeing the millions of spawning salmon at the mouth of the Fraser River. Historically, the highest eagle count occurs a few weeks after festival weekend, when temperatures up north dip below freezing and drive the raptors south in search of easy prey,

according to the FVBEF. For instance, noted bald eagle biologist David Hancock counted 7,362 eagles during an outing in December 2010. Chadwick is predicting a similar result for this season. “There is a lot of food [spawning salmon] in the river so it could be a banner year for eagles in the [Fraser] Valley,” said Chadwick. The eagle excitement continues for the next three weekends with featured region festivals. The skies above Harrison Mills will be in the spotlight from Nov. 30 to Dec. 2. Highlights include a photography workshop and Fraser River Safari eagle tours. Visit www.fvbef.ca for more information.

Be road safe

We might be quickly closing in on the most wonderful time of the year, but with our dark and wet roads, it is also one of the most dangerous. This combination has already claimed the life of one Nanaimo resident this fall – a 28-year-old male cyclist died after a collision with a car on Wall Street Friday. As the Christmas season approaches, we find ourselves hustling in all directions. Normal work and family obligations become more complicated with the need to shop for presents and attend social events. Everything speeds up. Unfortunately, it is at a time when our roadways become the most dangerous. In dark and wet conditions, it is virtually impossible to see that pedestrian crossing the street in a marked crosswalk, or that cyclist moving toward you as you try to make a left-hand turn, or that deer running out from the ravine. But steps can be taken to not only be safer on the roads, but to also reduce the stress level of people on the move. Driving the speed limit is a good start. At 50 km/h, drivers can often react in time to a avoid an unexpected cyclist, pedestrian or animal. Making sure your tires are up to the job of winter driving also helps. Cyclists can reduce their risk by ensuring they are visible, and are in a position where drivers can see them by riding in a predictable manner. Even pedestrians can reduce accidents by crossing the street only when it is certain that drivers in both directions are aware of their intentions. Making smart decisions, like planning effectively and not drinking and driving, can also reduce risk and stress. - Nanaimo News-Bulletin

Reality check on teen suicide I

f you find Premier Christy Clark’s campaign against teen bullying to be superficial or even self-serving, I’ve got news for you. It’s potentially worse than that. With the greatest respect to the family of Amanda Todd, her tragic case isn’t representative of teen suicide any more than it is typical of highschool bullying. A clearer and more disturbing picture emerges from the latest report of B.C.’s Representative for Children and Youth, Mary Ellen TurpelLafond. It’s a survey of 89 child protection cases from 2007 to 2010, where 15 kids killed themselves and the rest inflicted serious self-injury, in some cases repeatedly. The word “bully” does not appear in the report. It speaks of domestic violence, physical and sexual abuse, addiction, and runaways targeted by street predators. Three quarters of the kids were removed from their homes to protect them from their parents. More than half are aboriginal. Its key conclusion is that shifting traumatized and mentally ill teens from institutional care to foster homes isn’t

working. Earnest but inadhour can wait months for equately trained foster parents the Ministry of Children and social workers can’t cope and Family Development to with kids who need diagnosis, arrange it.

Would you support the creation of a traditional elementary of the Week: school in Mission?

in remote communities. Turpel-Lafond says her latest figures show the child and youth mental health service has 476 staff, with 21 vacancies and a government-wide hiring freeze. And many of those are doing double duty as community service managers. Those managers don’t even have reliable data on case loads, she said. They just know they’re overwhelmed and many of the kids aren’t being reached. This is not about political blame. I can trace this problem back to when Grace McCarthy was children’s minister, and the NDP did no better. I’ve learned a bit about Riverview and Tranquille, asylums that were closed because of a modern belief that they were inhumane. At least they offered safety and medical care to even the most damaged people. Right now our enlightened, progressive society can’t even help most of the kids we know are at high risk.

YOUR VIEWS Displaced medicinal grows would move to residential areas

Editor, The Record: Re: Council pushes to keep medicinal grows out of industrial zones, Nov. 8 edition. Is NIMBYism rearing its ugly head in Mission again? The chamber of commerce appeared as a delegation to council asking for something to be done about medicinal grow ops locating in areas where its members have businesses, as these grow ops are perceived as being negative. Council is moving forward to carry out the chamber’s bidding. If successful, these grow ops will have to move to a residential neighbourhood where families with children will be at risk of all the negative things that are synonymous with grow ops, such as fires, grow rips, guard dogs, foul odours, etc. Yes, the chamber is carrying out its mandate by supporting its members. My question is, who is looking out for the safety and well being of the residential taxpayers who pay 75 per cent of the taxes to keep this town afloat? According to the council vote on the subject, only Councillor Nelson Tilbury appears concerned for the residential taxpayer. Who is running this town anyway? Is it the chamber of commerce that also directed council to create a new public relations position? Residents of Mission beware, there could be a grow op relocating to your neighbourhood soon. T.B.

Some things don’t need to run like a business Editor, The Record: I hope recent events like the scandalous lack of help to our cherished veterans from the Tories has put perspective right in front of Canadians eyes. Ever since the late 1970s, the public has been fed this notion that socialism is preventing you from achieving the so-called American dream, and many great strides have been undertaken to stop these “bleeding heart” socialistic ideas. It’s also at that time that we started hearing the “everything should be run like a business” mantra from the extreme right; an idiotic notion that is still commonly heard today and demonstrates the lack of thought put forward by those chanting it. Yet, when we hear of the government cutting pensions to the veterans, people are outraged. Why? Isn’t

this what we’ve been clamouring for? Government to run like a costsaving business? The economy is the only thing that matters, no? Truth is that government was never meant to make a profit; it’s meant to take care of things that shouldn’t need to make a profit, for the people. Our veterans are part of this and the fact that we are having this argument shows how low we have sunk following this right-wing rhetoric. We’ve chosen bottom line over humanity, and voted in a government who believes in that too. It’s high time for Canadians to get off their duffs and get involved in politics because our lifestyle is Trio Voronezh worth more than the next quarterly profit margins.

Both of them still drive. Anne and Cornelius were neighbours while growing up in Saskatchewan. Their family farms were about two miles apart and Cornelius was good friends with Anne’s brother. After the young couple married, they moved to B.C. to look for work and settled in places like Burns Lake and Fort St. John before retiring in Mission. They farmed and had their own construction business of which Anne was secretary. They built their retirement house in Hatzic and moved there in 1990. “It doesn’t seem like 73 years,” said Anne about their marriage. “The time has gone by so fast.” Her husband agrees. “Life has been good — uncommonly good.” The secret to a long lasting marriage? Love and respect each other and keep an open mind. You won’t always see things the same, said Cornelius.

Three men have been arrested and charged in connection with the Nov. 6 robbery of Ben Moss Jewelers at Richmond Centre. Vancouver’s Ty Burgess, 29, Mission’s Shane Buckner, 36, and Coquitlam’s Keith Macdonald are facing robbery related charges after witnesses described to police how two men entered the mall, and then smashed the display cases at the jewelry store. The two men fled with an undisclosed amount of jewelry, but their attempts to flee the scene were

hamstrung. Once outside the mall, one of the suspects, who was carrying a gun, was unsuccessful in his attempt to carjack a vehicle. When the suspect tried to commandeer a second vehicle, the man was apprehended by bystanders. A scuffle ensued, and the suspect fired off a single shot, but nobody was injured. The man was held until police arrived. One of the Good Samaritans who apprehended one of the suspects was bitten by a suspect, and

received medical treatment. The suspect’s handgun was retrieved. Vancouver Police were able to locate and arrest two other suspects afterward. Burgess and Buckner have been charged with armed robbery and wearing a disguise with intent to commit an indictable offence. Macdonald is charged with armed robbery and possession of a prohibited or restricted firearm. The trio were scheduled to appear in Richmond provincial court Nov. 19.

Christmas Bureau doors now open By Carol aun Mission Record

Patient Testimonial

Ten years ago, I decided to have a dental implant rather than a bridge. Bridges can be hard to clean and can break down over time. I made an appointment with Dr. Lui and found the implant procedure virtually painless. My dental implant was problem free so, ﬁve years later, I had another implant placed by Dr. Lui. I have no discomfort, I can eat anything and the implants are easy to brush - just like normal teeth! I have complete conﬁdence in Dr. Lui. His rates are fair and I know he keeps up-to-date with the latest technology and equipment. I highly recommend Dr. Lui to anyone considering having tooth replacement with a dental implant.

Blanket Drive starts Nov. 23 On Nov. 23-24 the Blanket BC Society will be launching its fourth annual “Drive on the Line” campaign along the Canada Line. This is a two-day blanket drive where over 100 volunteers will be collecting warming donations from the public, including socks, scarves, mittens, toques, and blankets. Donations will then be divided up and distributed to over 50 shelters and organizations that work directly with society’s most impoverished individuals and families throughout the region. Last year the “Drive” successfully collected over 8,000 blankets and over 2,000 articles of clothing. The goal this year is to collect over

15,000 blankets, bringing Blanket BC to a total of 100,000 blankets collected to date. Gregory Ould, a Mission resident, is behind the blanket drive. While walking out of a movie theatre in downtown Vancouver on a chilly October night back in 2005, Ould noticed a man lying in an alcove at the side of a building and asked him if there was anything he could do to help. Ould was taken aback by what the man said: “I could use a blanket… to survive the night.” For more information on Blanket BC, visit blanketbc.org or sign up to be a 2012 Driveon-the-line volunteer at www.blanketbc.org/volunteer.html.

The Mission Community Services (MCS) Christmas Bureau doors were officially opened Friday at the Junction Mall. Nestled between Urban Planet and the dental office, organizers are hoping the high-profile location will be easy to find and elicit more donations. “I’m thrilled to be in a retail setting,” said MCS board chair Karen Laing, who remembers being a part of the annual program when she first moved to Mission more than 30 years ago. “The program has grown and developed.” This is our second year at this location, said MCS executive director Tony Lapointe, adding donations have dropped seven or eight per cent over the past year, but people are still stopping by to offer support. The majority of donations come in November and December, but the MCS food centre helps families year round. It takes hundreds of volunteers each year to

run the Christmas Bureau and its events, said coordinator Phil Hope, adding there is still time to get involved. The office is accepting registrations Monday to Friday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., and donations can be dropped off Monday to Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. We are accepting donations of non-perishable good and new gifts, said Hope. Tax receipts will also be given for any cash contributions. Events are also being organized throughout the community to benefit the Christmas Bureau, such as the Rotary Carol Festival Nov. 29 at the Clarke Theatre, the Candlelight Parade Dec. 7 through Mission’s downtown and Christmas at the Clarke benefit concert Dec. 19. The West Coast Express Santa Train will be running Dec. 8 and Dec. 15. Ride the train for free when you bring a new toy or gift donation to the Christmas Bureau. Check back here often for opportunities to support the Christmas Bureau. For more information about the Christmas Bureau, call 604-814-3333.

Conservatives, NDP debate trade deal with China By Phil Melnychuk Black Press

The new trade pact just signed with China will let Canada compete globally and create jobs at home, the local MP says in defence of the deal. “It establishes a clear set of rules under which investments are made and under which investment disputes are resolved,” Randy Kamp says in a submission to The News. He adds that Canadian businesses will no longer have to rely on the Chi-

nese legal system to have their disputes resolved. Besides, Canada is now part of a group including New Zealand, Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium and Japan, who have all signed investment treaties with China on similar or less favourable terms, says the representative for Pitt Meadows-Maple Ridge-Mission. “This is very classic Randy Kamp,” said NDPer Elizabeth Rosenau. “By making a statement like that [other

countries have signed similar agreements], he’s relying on people’s ignorance to believe it.” Who has the time to research that, she asked. Rosenau says the Foreign Investment Promotion and Protection Agreement, soon to be ratified, is proof that the Conservative policy of low corporate taxes isn’t working. Companies are not investing those tax savings in the Canadian economy and Canada is allowing that money to be invested

“in an economy where people are treated pretty close to being slaves.” She adds that the government’s “free market fundamentalism” is “absurd” when it allows stated-owned companies from Communist countries to take over control of resources. “I think that our federal government should have an energy strategy that ensures that our resources will be used to meet the needs of our own citizens well into the future.”

Rosenau is also concerned about the agreement allowing Chinese companies to sue the government if regulations interfere with profits, pointing out that’s happened in some European countries, costing millions in taxpayer dollars. She says the Conservatives have been gutting environmental protection laws so that if a future government tried to strengthen the laws on the environment, the Foreign Investment Pro-

motion and Protection Agreement would prevent that. “We’re going to be held for ransom by them because we’re not going to be able to change them. They’re attempting to govern far beyond their mandate in an area that is very dear to the rest of us.” Kamp, though, says the agreement does not “restrict Canada’s ability to regulate and legislate in areas such as the environment, culture, safety, health and conservation”

– but he does not cite references to substantiate that. And he says the agreement is the first that China has signed that “expressly includes language on transparency of dispute settlement proceedings.” Kamp said it’s “Canada’s long-standing policy that all dispute resolution should be open to the public and that the submissions by the parties be made available to the public.” But he doesn’t say if where in the agreement or how it ensures that public dispute resolution will take place. He only says that decisions of arbitration panels would be made public. According to Article 26 of FIPA, tribunal hearings will follow those set out by the UN Commission on International Trade Law, which says hearings will take place in secret, unless the parties agree otherwise. He points out that Canada also will be able to review foreign investments under the Investment Canada Act to ensure they provide a net benefit to Canadians. Under the treaty, “Chinese investors in Canada must obey all of the laws and regulations of Canada, just as any Canadian must.” Kamp said the CanadaChina FIPA was tabled on Sept. 26, prior to its formal ratification. The Conservatives first introduced that policy, requiring treaties to be table in the House for 21 days before ratification, he pointed out. Since then, Opposition parties have been given four “Opposition days,” when they can debate issues of their own choosing. But the NDP and Liberals haven’t done so, he said. Rosenau said Conservative-dominated committees in Ottawa make that difficult to do because often discussion goes behind closed doors, and the Opposition didn’t have enough time to react to huge amounts of legislation. There hasn’t been a good public discussion about the deal, she said, and that people need time to digest such legislation, she added. The Canada-China FIPA negotiation has been completed and agreement reached, but hasn’t yet received cabinet approval and has yet to come into force.

Tourism generates estimated one in $6 in Mission For some, a dream job would be a vacation planner — for themselves! Vacationing in B.C. can take so many forms that it would indeed be a full-time job. The tourism and hospitality industry is an extremely diverse industry with over 400 different occupations — including occupations that lead to longer-term careers, as well as those that fit well for those seeking parttime work, like students or older workers who are not yet ready to retire. British Columbia’s tourism industry will be a leader in provincial job growth as businesses look to fill 101,000 new job openings by 2020, according to a study of labour demand and supply by go2, the B.C. tourism industry’s human resource association. The Tourism Labour Market Strategy, released in the spring of 2012 by go2, sets out the plan to recruit, retain and train the workers needed to keep pace with the growth projected for the industry. Nearly half of the 101,000 openings will be new jobs created by the tourism industry across the province, adding 44,220 more jobs to the provincial workforce by 2020. The other approximately 57,000 openings are due to replacements (i.e. retirements). “The labour strategy co-ordinated by go2 is a key pillar of industry growth in the province. Without it, we simply wouldn’t have the skilled workers in place to deliver the visitor experience throughout B.C.,” says Lana Denoni, chair of TIABC, the Tourism Industry Association of British Columbia. British Columbia’s location, bordered by the Rocky Mountains on

the east and the Pacific Ocean on the west, makes it unique within Canada. Its mountain and coastal scenery, opportunities for summer sailing, winter skiing, and other activities such as fishing or sightseeing in coastal or inland waters or experiencing our vibrant cities all make us a world-class destination. Tourism helps to diversify our economy and also brings new community services to permanent residents. B.C.’s tourism and hospitality industry is now the single largest “primary resource industry” in the province, generating an annual real GDP of more than $6.4 billion in 2010, ahead of forestry, mining, oil and gas extraction, and agriculture. Tourism and hospitality generated $13.4 billion in annual revenue in 2010. Overall, between 2004 and 2010, industry revenues grew by a total of 25.5 per cent, representing an average annual growth rate of 4.2 per cent. According to the Mission Regional Chamber of Commerce, tourism here has shifted significantly over the last 10 years. While it is still estimated that one in every $6 generated in the local economy over the summer is generated by

tourism, measuring impact has become more difficult as many of the tourism activities are not related to events or attractions. As a tourist destination, visitors come to Mission on day trips for the outdoor experience. The many trails for hiking, off-roading and camping are increasingly being used by those who live in Metro Vancouver. The development of the Stave Lake Interpretive Forest will offer opportunity to benefit from its use as well as provide some measurement of use. Mission Raceway and festivals such as this past weekend’s Bald Eagle Festival continue to attract those outside of the Lower Mainland to the area. Estimates of more than 10,000 visitors attend the many national races at the track. Mission also continues to be a significant launch point for sports fishing on the Fraser river, internationally renowned for sturgeon and salmon. The economy has impacted the number of visitors to the area, the chamber noted. Visitor statistics tracked at the Info Centre have shown a decline since the 2008 high of 11,085. This decline is equivalent across the Lower Mainland of about 22 per cent. Inter-

estingly while there are less European and American visitors, the number

of visitors from B.C. has increased. The provincial government’s Gaining the Edge: A Five-Year Strategy for Tourism in British Columbia targets revenue growth of five per cent a year that will top $18 billion in tourism spending by 2016. The fastest growing sectors for tourism job growth over the next decade are expected to be recreation and entertainment and travel services. There are an estimated 17,943 tourism-related businesses across the

province, employing about 260,000 workers, or 10.8 per cent of B.C.’s total labour force of 2.4 million people. More than 80 per cent of tourism’s new job openings are projected to come in food and beverage services (43,410 openings), recreation and entertainment (20,530 openings) and the accommodation sector (18,920 openings). “After several years of slow labour growth, the tourism industry is poised to expand,” said Arlene Keis, chief ex-

ecutive officer of go2. “Labour shortages are already being felt in places like Northern B.C., the Thompson Okanagan and in the Rockies regions. By 2016, the crunch will be more acute throughout the province.” “The tourism industry often provides people with their important first job and sets them on their career path,” said Keis. “Tourism is also the largest employer of youth, with one in four British Columbians under the age of 24 working in the industry.

Numerous jobs in tech sector in British Columbia British Columbia has a ready source of jobs and careers in technology and education programs need to keep up with that demand. John Leech, executive director of the Applied Science Technologists and Technicians of BC said, “Every system we rely on — water, roads and transportation, telecommunications and Internet, hydro and natural gas, environment, health, forestry, and many more — utilizes engineering and applied science technology professionals working in the background. B.C.’s telecom and IT, animation and many other sectors produce new careers every month.” ASTTBC has more than 10,000 members currently working in thousands of careers available to graduates of two-year diploma programs available at the British Columbia Institute of Technology and other B.C. colleges and institutes. “Our members enjoy rewarding, well-paid and often recessionproof careers in public service and the private sector alike,” Leech

states. “For huge numbers of young men and women, technology is the answer. In B.C. and across Canada, technology permeates every workplace and job. We need to get capable students involved and engaged in applied sciences and head off workforce shortages by building a B.C. science and technology culture.” Leech calls on government for renewed efforts to build student skills and confidence in math and science programming. “We especially need to interest young students in science and how things work,” Leech says. “Young students use technology every day — smart phones, iPads and computers. They play video games, even build robots.” In Mission, the WorkBC office to clients on April 2, 2012 and is readily accessible and actively serving local residents though the its main at #209-33123 First Ave. The WorkBC office can assist anyone searching for work, including employment in

the above-mentioned fields, said Klaus Werner, chair of Fraser Valley Employment and Support Services which holds the contract for WorkBC services in Mission. Leech lauds the recent “Year of Science” program that encouraged students toward so-called “STEM” subjects — science, technology, engineering and math. Citing the recent $6-million B.C. campaign to encourage careers in trades, Leech urges a similar effort to build awareness of engineering technology education and careers. BC Technology Industries Association employers like Telus and BC Hydro and many smaller technology-rich companies say the single most important position they now struggle to fill is specialty technician/technologist. Even the Canadian Council of Chief Executives expressed concern that only 37 per cent of 16- to 18-yearolds were interested in taking even one postsecondary course in sciences, according to a recent Angus Reid survey.

INTERIOR TO LOWER MAINLAND TRANSMISSION PROJECT

Leech says the opportunities for those seeking work in the technology field are considerable given a wave of retirements of presentgeneration B.C. technology professionals that is already underway. “Half of our membership is now middle-aged at 45-plus, and 22 per cent are over age 55,” he said. “Every region of B.C. shows growing demand,” Leech concluded. “New twoyear technology diploma programs are still needed in the north and central B.C. However, young people are investing to travel so they can earn the necessary tech qualifications.” It would appear their investment is a smart move, as it will result in a broad range of career opportunities. Industries in all regions of B.C. support programs for local trainees to fill engineering and applied science technologist, technician and technical specialist positions. • Mission WorkBC also is the starting point for job seekers wanting traditional employment options but is also here to assist those considering self employment options as well. WorkBC’s overall goal is to assist people to successfully achieve employment or to connect residents with others in the community who may assist them in developing meaningful connections within the community such as volunteer opportunities and networking. Work BC will assist residents wanting to find small part time employment opportunities or assist a person to successfully transition them from unemployment to employment and from one employment opportunity to another as well as needed. Full-time secondary or post-secondary students and Individuals who are not Canadian citizens or permanent residents are welcome to access the Self-Serve Resources.

Recycle outdated electronics at depot Do you have an old TV or computer monitor that you don’t know what to do with it? Some items do not lend themselves for curbside collection, but are still recyclable. Electronic waste, such as computers, TVs, monitors, fax machines, printers, cables, scanners and laptops can be dropped off at the Mission Recycling Depot, located at 7229 Mershon St. (across from the West Coast Express parking lot). The depot also accepts fluorescent light tubes and compact fluorescent bulbs, paint, some pesticides and old gasoline every day of the year. For limits and details on what’s acceptable, please check your garbage collection calendar or visit productcare.org/ BC-Paint-Program or call the Recycling

Hotline at 1-800-6674321. The depot is open seven days a week from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., and there is no drop-off charge. Scrap metal items, such as hot water tanks, metal siding, fencing, barbecues, appliances, lawnmowers and bicycles, may be dropped off at the Mission Recycling Depot or the Mission

Landfill at 32000 Dewdney Trunk Rd. free of charge. Please note that fridges and freezers are only accepted at the Mission landfill, due to the need for freon removal. Tires are accepted at the landfill at a charge. The landfill is open seven days a week from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. except statutory holidays.

Ice, snow could halt garbage collection While the snow has not begun to fall, the winter weather is just around the corner. The District of Mission wants to remind residents that manoeuvering garbage trucks down narrow streets and steep slopes on icy roads can be a daunting task, not only putting garbage collectors, but other road users, at risk. Even if roads appear clear, snow banks may prevent collection vehicles from pulling off to the side, creating hazards for motorists and pedestrians. Cancelled garbage collections as a result of winter road conditions undoubtedly present an inconvenience to residents,

8:00 a.m.

Pursuant to Section 92 of the Community Charter, a council must state, by resolution passed in a public meeting, the fact that the meeting or part of the meeting is to be closed and the basis under the applicable subsection of Section 90 on which it is to be closed. Municipal Council will hold a Regular Council Meeting on December 3, 2012 at 2:00 p.m. for the sole purpose of going into a closed council meeting in the Conference Room at Mission Municipal Hall, 8645 Stave Lake Street, Mission, BC. Please note that this schedule will be updated weekly.

but are sometimes necessary to ensure everyone’s safety. If your garbage was left at the curbside due to road conditions, please check www.mission.ca or call municipal hall. Should collection be postponed until the following week, please bring your garbage, compost and recyclables back inside to avoid attracting wildlife. Instead of the usual two, you will be allowed to set out two garbage bins and two garbage bags (maximum 80-litre capacity and 20 kg weight each) on your regular collection day the following week. If your garbage, recyclables or compost were the only materials missed on your street,

please verify they were at the curb by 8 a.m., that they were visible and accessible, and that they met all weight and size specifications. Worksafe BC regulations stipulate that bags and containers must not exceed 20 kg in weight or 80 L in volume. Non-conforming materials should have received a sticker, explaining why pickup was suspended. If materials were left behind for no apparent reason, please phone the collection contractor directly at 604-8206487. For further information please contact the district’s engineering department at 604-820-3736.

Bring a bag and clean up after dog in parks The District of Mission is encouraging dog owners to help keep our parks clean by bringing surplus bags from home to pick up and dispose of their dog’s waste. Over the next month or two, the dog bag dispensers will be altered to accept bags from home. This helps

in two ways. First it re-uses surplus bags. Second, it reduces the cost of purchasing bags for the dispensers. District of Mission Dog Licensing and Animal Control and Impounding Bylaw No. 1782-1988 requires dog owners to pick up their dog’s waste and dispose of it in the

containers provided. The end result is a clean park that all can enjoy. The district appreciates your cooperation. For further information or comments please contact Kerry Bysouth, manager of parks and facilities at 604-8205356.

To Row The oaRs oR UnfURl The sails Our journey through life is sometimes described as a boat ride. Sometimes we take an active role in that ride, steering the boat or rowing the oars. Other times, we take a more passive role, unfurling the sails and letting the wind pull us along. There are times in life when we must be active to get what we want; a rowboat won’t go very far on calm water without someone working the oars. But there are times in life when we really don’t have much control over things, and we can just go with the flow. But even then, we need to make sure we are facing in the right direction. A strong wind may make our journey a lot easier, but only if the boat is pointing in the right direction. We are all on a journey to the heart of God. Sometimes we need to take the oars in our hands and row. Other times, we just need to unfurl our sails and catch the wind of God. But in either case, we need to be heading in the right direction. Fortunately, God has implanted in us a moral compass, our conscience, which lets us know whether we are on the right track or not. We should pay attention to what our moral compass is telling us, follow it with integrity, and row the oars or unfurl the sails, as the situation demands.

By rejecting conscience, certain persons have made shipwreck of their faith. R.S.V. 1 Timothy 1: 19

Author conquers own fears Record contributor

Brian Robinson’s wildest childhood dream came true last week: the book he wrote is now available for checkout at his old elementary school library in Mission. Rewind the clock to some 25-odd years ago — and you find Robinson roaming the hallways at West Heights Elementary School. Inside his backpack are creased notebook doodlings of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Transformers. The amateur animator soon began writing little stories about central characters in his own life, namely his tabby cat. “I would staple the pages together,” recalls Robinson, from his home in Coquitlam. “I even talked to the librarian at West Heights [elementary] about how to get [my books] into the library.” The artist of his class, Robinson went on to study computer animation in college. Highprofile gigs with Electronic Arts and local film studios soon followed. Robinson was in heaven. All the while, an unrelenting pounding in his head would routinely show up unannounced — chronic migraines, inhibiting Robinson from concentrating on his work. After a valiant effort trying to ignore the colossal headaches, it eventually sidelined him from ani-

mation. “That’s the career I always wanted to do,” says Robinson. “It was hard to step away from.” Now, with nothing but time on his hands, another nagging surfaced: that long-lost goal of becoming a published author. The storyline played out right in front of him every night when Robinson would put his daughter Brienna to bed. “If her closet door was open she would say that her clothes looked like monsters,” explains Robinson. In order to help Brienna conquer her fears, her dad would have to get past his own apprehensions about self-publishing. The words and illustrations were committed to Robinson’s laptop during pitstops on his way back to Vancouver from Quebec. At one point there was a tornado — the dark clouds providing ominous inspiration for a story about a monster. Every so often he would check in with Brienna for quality control. The monster he was 3D modelling on his computer had to be the perfect combination of scary and goofy. Robinson later illustrated ‘Manfred’ the monster by hand, to further challenge himself. “I’m trying to teach myself that if I face my own fears that they are not going to be as bad as I think they are,” he says. That mantra appears in

his now-published children’s’ book, “Manfred Under the Bed.” “For a fear that you face is a fear that you beat. You face that big fear; crush it under your feet.” Manfred is portrayed as a wide-mouthed monster with sharp teeth and matted fur that smells of burnt tires — juxtaposed by a doe-eyed, pyjamaclad Brienna clinging to her teddy bear. Life came full circle for Robinson when he returned to West Heights

last week to read to the West Heights students. Another fear of his was conquered that day. “Any kind of public speaking that I have done in front of adults I get nervous; butterflies in my stomach,” says Robinson. “These kids were just so accepting. They said ‘wow he wrote a book and now he is reading to it us.’” Manfred Under the Bed is available through amazon.ca and Robinson’s website at brianrobinson.com.

Former Mission resident Brian Robinson was at West Heights elementary last week reading to a class. He also donated a copy of his book to the school library. SUBMITTED PHOTO

Mission’s junior varsity and varsity teams have made it to the final four of the provincial championships. The JVs dropped South Kamloops in Kamloops 55-14 last weekend, and jumped out to an early 14-0 lead after a 56-yard touchdown pass from Jesse Walker to Inderpreet Herr, and a 15-yard run by Walker. By the half, the Mission Secondary School Roadrunners were up 27-14, with TDs from Bryce Fillion and Walker. According to coach John Kapty, the boys started to completely dominate both offensively and defensively in the second half of the game, with three touchdowns from Fillion on rushes of four, 40 and 85 yards, plus a touchdown catch from Danny Jung. On defense, Dayton Robertson had two interceptions and eight

tackles, while Peter Kulba had 13 tackles. “South Kamloops was a tough team. I was happy the way we stuck with our game plan, and finally in the second half, we were able to open it up,” said Kapty. The JVs played a semi-final match yesterday at 3 p.m. at Burnaby Lakes. They play John Barsby from Nanaimo, the team the Roadrunners have played in the finals for the past two consecutive years. “We have a lot of respect for Barsby. It’s going to be a challenge,” said Kapty.

Varsity The senior football team is meeting with equal success, defeating the western AA conference champion Windsor Dukes 21-7 last Saturday at UBC. “It was a great bend-but-don’tbreak defensive effort against

Windsor,” said coach Kevin Watrin. “They were very well prepared for us, fortunately we were able to make enough to come out with the victory and advance to the semi-final against Ballenas.” Evan Horton, Arjun Bhogal and Kevin Wiens racked up 11, seven and six tackles, respectively, on the defensive side of the equation, while Wiens and Horton also racked up high numbers on the rushing front. Wiens ran for 102 yards with two touchdowns, and Horton scrambled for 173 yards. Wayde Carpenter made two catches for 20 yards, Jesse Walker had one for 24, and Dylan Melbourne-Kinney snagged one for 17 yards. The Roadrunners play their semi-final game this coming Saturday, again at UBC, against Ballenas.

Dog adoption drive on now until end of December A dog adoption drives is running until the end of the year. Between January and June of this year, 20 dogs were brought into the SAINTS (Senior Animals In Need Today Society) shelter, but only five were adopted.

SAINTS works with animals that are often unadoptable due to their specialized physical and medical needs. The society provides living end-of-life care for these animals. Many go to SAINTS from other pounds where they were to be euthanized.

The Pedigree Adoption Drive kicked off Sept. 19, and the pet food company has donated $5,000 to the society to help with food, medical expenses and operating costs. Funds for the program come from a portion of proceeds from the sale of each specially

marked Pedigree dry dog food. For more information on the adoption drive and adopting a dog, visit mypedigree.ca/adoption. For information on SAINTS, visit saintsrescue.ca.

The entertainment and games planned for the evening make it the perfect place to host a staff Christmas part. Tickets are only $75 a person or $500 for a table of eight.
