Manure dumping plan revealed in city documents Multiple departments involved in decision to deter homeless A4 Alex BUTLER Abbotsford News
Multiple managers at city hall were involved in or aware of a decision to dump chicken manure on a homeless camp on Gladys Avenue on June 4, internal documents show. Though city manager George Murray ultimately took the heat for the decision, assuming re-
sponsibility and declining to name any city staff involved, emails and documents obtained by The News through a freedom of information request implicate staff from several departments. The site, on Gladys Avenue across from the Salvation Army facility, had been the topic of emails between city staff, discussing ways to deal with the gathering of the city’s homeless
there. The ideas included removing brush cover, cutting down the large cedar at that site – sometimes known as the Happy Tree – or placing concrete rubble in the area. A June 3 email from the city’s urban forester Eric Fong – the subject of the email being “spreading chicken manure…” – to James Continued on A4

Providing stability for young lives Volunteers and donors make Cyrus House a reality Vikki HOPES Abbotsford News
L
es Talvio has long dreamed of providing a stable, supportive home for kids who have not had that in their lives. As the executive director of the Cyrus Centre drop-in facility for at-risk kids – many of whom are homeless – Talvio has heard some heart-breaking stories and has had to turn away far too many kids from the limited emergency-shelter beds that are provided there. Now, some of those kids will get to experience the home that Talvio has always imagined for them. Over the last six months, a group of dedicated volunteers and generous donors have been working to make Cyrus House a reality. Starting in September, the home – at a location in Abbotsford that Talvio wants to keep private – will provide a nurturing family environment to four kids at a time under the age of 19 who cannot live with their own families. A married couple has been hired as the “house parents” and will provide guidance, support and role modelling to youths who aren’t ready to live on their own. The selection process for the young tenants will begin at a later date. The pair will help the kids with things that parents typically teach

One of the key goals is to prepare them for independent living. Talvio said that for some of these kids, even sitting down as a group at the dining room table will be a new experience. He emphasized that no formal programs will be offered at the site. “They (the kids) will be loved and cared for and nurtured … and skills instilled in them. It’s going to be a family.

article that mentioned the project and the need for donations of materials and labour. Woods researched the work of Cyrus Centre and was shocked to learn about the number of kids living on Abbotsford’s streets. He wanted to help. Woods contacted everyone he could think to contribute to the renovations and, in the end, more than $200,000 worth of materials and labour were donated. He estimates that about 80 tradespeople and other volunteers contributed their time for tasks such as installing new floors, replacing all the doors and windows, patching walls, adding a fresh coat of paint, installing appliances and landscaping. Not one penny was charged to Cyrus Centre. Next up for the facility is a grand opening celebration on Wednesday, Aug. 21 at Creekside Centre, 35131 Straiton Rd., starting at 6:30 p.m. All the costs of the event – including food and entertainment – are being covered by the Klassen Foundation, so that all donations from the gala can go straight to Cyrus House.

Abbotsford officer to appear in Supreme Court Police department member to face 10 charges
After a brief appearance in the Supreme Court of B.C. on Monday morning, Abbotsford Police Const. Christopher Nicholson has been charged with six counts of obstructing justice, three counts of breach of trust and one count of unsafe storage of a firearm. Crown Counsel has decided to proceed by way of direct indictment to the Supreme Court of British Columbia. Nicholson has been released on an undertaking, pending his next scheduled
at the time Nicholson was charged in May that if the facts are proven to be true, he put the “lives and reputations of other police officers at risk.� “To the front-line officers, these are some of the most dangerous and highrisk entries that police officers undertake. “Executing search warrants with false/ misleading information puts many police officers in unnecessary danger,� he said.
The APD asked the VPD to conduct an investigation after two APD members informed an inspector of Nicholson’s alleged misconduct last July. Up to a dozen investigators were involved in the covert operation. Nicholson also allegedly conspired with a confidential informant to have drugs delivered to a residence and have other police officers conduct a search warrant soon after. Abbotsford Police Chief Bob Rich said
court appearance on Aug. 28 in Supreme Court. The charges were originally presented back in May, after an eight-month investigation that began when he allegedly leaked information to a drug dealer so that person could avoid arrest. He has been suspended from his job with the Abbotsford Police Department. The Vancouver Police Department (VPD) began the investigation last September.

Green MLA on coal and controversy Tom
Fletcher
B.C. Views After climate scientist-turned-Green Party MLA Andrew Weaver had a taste of debate in the B.C. legislature, I asked him for his impressions on that and other issues.

The federal government says that when you add up what’s actually being used in North America, carbon emissions from coal are about 30 times more than from oil. Now we have a symbolic coal export ban in Vancouver, which doesn’t apply to Port Moody or Point Roberts or Prince Rupert. Do you think there’s any significance to this?

And I sense that the B.C. Liberals very much like our existence, as being not NDP. The reality is, we take as many Liberal votes, if not more. It’s because what it means to be ‘green’ has moved out of what the NDP view as green, which is a tree hugger.

Secrecy unjustified I congratulate city manager George Murray for taking steps to reduce city costs. His action is a breath of fresh air. I do, however, have some comments and questions. In an autocratic political system, citizens are expected to pay taxes, obey laws, and go about their private business. In a free and open system, citizens are also expected to ask questions and hold rulers accountable. This citizen has a question. Why have our city officials decided that taxpayers shall not be told whether certain departing senior staff members are receiving a severance? I believe we have a right to know. Here are my reasons: It’s our money. Officials can do with their own money as they please but we have a right to know what they do with our money. I’ve read that welfare recipients may develop a sense of entitlement; it seems that some city hall tenants have acquired that
disposition. Taxpayers have a right to know for which positions a precedent is being set. Is city hall saddling us with a new set of financial obligations? Complete accountability and transparency about major expenditures is essential to maintain citizens’ trust in city hall. There’s no justification for secrecy. This request does not involve someone else’s private affairs. The focus is on taxpayers’ money. If there is a contractual obligation to maintain secrecy, then we need to know. We, the taxpayers paying the largesse, can then insist that such an unnecessary promise shall not be included in any future contracts. Remember, city officials, whether you are elected or appointed, you are our employees, not we yours! John H. Redekop Abbotsford
Crows have unfair advantage Just read the letter from C. Perry in Bradner, and I totally agree that we need to start culling crows. Not only do they rip garbage bags apart and make a mess, in the last two years we have watched them raid a nest of hummingbirds and kill the babies and destroy robins’ eggs. They are ruthless predators. And for people who object by saying this is “nature,” I love nature too, but we have given the crows an
unfair advantage by providing them with limitless food supplies. Experts will tell you that any time an animal or bird has a surplus of food and living is good, they multiply faster. When times are bad, they die off. I’ve even seen them chase bald eagles away from nests the eagles are trying to build. Time to thin out the population. Debbie Mendini Abbotsford

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.

Airport is not a playground For years now some pilot with a stunt plane seems to have unlimited access to airspace over Abby airport. What he does is climb to a certain height, then roll over and come back down spiraling making a hell of a noise, especially pulling up. This goes on for at least an hour at a time. The prop plane is very noisy and must be controlled by a wannabe dive bomber pilot. Frankly I am fed up with it, and I am certain

many other residents around this PUBLIC owned airport are fed up also. Let him do his stuff further out of town, or find a small town airport, not our CITY in the country. What kind of pull does he/she have with city hall? This is unacceptable. One day his stressed aircraft may crash on a house. Airports are NOT playgrounds for the wealthy. Dennis Cook
Light shed on petition inaccuracies Well, it would seem that since the light was shed on the inaccuracies in the Abbotsford Downtown Business Association’s petition against the transition housing downtown, they have finally revised it to speak, mostly, the truth. Other than the one detail
about addictions counselling being invalid since the counsellors will be coming to these men to assist them, I am very glad that they are no longer hiding behind false information to disguise the blatant NIMBYism of their opposition. Thank you ADBA!

Russian Red Rocambole Hardneck Garlic has a strong garlic flavour and a warm sweet aftertaste. This heirloom variety was brought to BC by Doukhobor immigrants from Russia in early 1900s. Rocamboles are revered by many to be the best tasting of all the garlics. In addition to its flavour, garlic is considered a health food that reduces cholesterol and blood pressure.

No traces of fentanyl in heroin Police plan to test more doses Vikki HOPES Abbotsford News
A heroin sample that the Abbotsford Police Department (APD) sent for testing has come back negative for fentanyl. But Const. Ian MacDonald said the possibility still exists that fentanyl is contained in other doses being sold or used in the community. Earlier this week, police warned that a potent form of heroin was believed to be responsible for a spike in heroin overdoses. As of last Thursday, there had been eight such cases – one of them fatal – since mid-May. MacDonald said the APD had recorded a 39 per cent increase in the last several weeks in the number of calls to assist at scenes with people in medical distress. Front-line officers had spoken with many people who were reporting severe reactions to heroin. It was suspected that fentanyl – which is 100 times more potent than morphine – could have been used as a cutting agent in the drugs being used locally. But although a sample obtained by the APD indicated a more potent form of heroin than would normally be sold in the streets, there was no trace of fentanyl. MacDonald said the recent overdoses draw
attention to the risks of using street drugs. “These drugs are not being made in pharma-
ceutical governmentstandard conditions … They are being made by drug dealers and drug

The glass display cases in the museum on McCallum Road in Abbotsford do not contain old artifacts or precious art pieces. There are no period costumes or photographs from eras past. This museum is all about teddy bears – a concept so unique to Canada that the site is believed to be the only one of its kind in the nation. The Bearga Museum was opened at the beginning of July by husband and wife Charlie Oh and Julie Ko of South Korea. Located at 2335
McCallum Rd., it features approximately 120 displays of hand-

If you’re considering going to UFV this fall, but haven’t applied yet, you should do so now. Most programs are accepting applications until July 26 to begin your studies this September. And if the program you want is full, you can still apply now for the January 2014 semester, or the program’s next available start date. But even if you miss applying by July 26, some programs will continue accepting applications for this September. These include: T Aboriginal Culture and Language Support diploma T Associate of Arts in Theatre T Bachelor of Arts in Adult Education T Bachelor of Arts in Global Development Studies T Data Analysis post-degree certificate T Early Childhood Education diploma in Special Needs T Early Childhood Education diploma in Infancy T Fashion Design diploma T Health Care Assistant certificate T Indigenous Arts certificate T Master of Arts, Criminal Justice T Modern Languages T Theatre Arts diploma T Developmental programs, including English as a Second Language (ESL), Adult Basic Education(ABE), and Workplace TASK. Vocational programs, trades, health sciences, continuing studies, aviation diploma, and agriculture programs use a continuous application process, and will continue to accept applications for the next intake with space available. Once again, UFV’s enrolment is expected to exceed the government-funded target this year. “UFV strives to offer the best undergraduate education in Canada, and it shows. Demand for a student seat at our institution is very high,” said Dr. Eric Davis, UFV Provost and Vice-President Academic. “We are committed to accepting as many students as is feasible, while ensuring they can receive the support services they may need, and can get into the courses they want in a timely manner.” “And in terms of student seats, we over-deliver,” added Davis. “We admit more students than we receive government funding for, but we keep that from exceeding 105 percent. In order to ensure UFV remains the first choice for post-secondary studies in the Fraser Valley, we cap admission for some of our programs to maintain a quality experience for students.” For more information on applying to UFV, visit ufv.ca/future-students.

homeland. There are eight teddy bear museums in Korea, including the one they previously operated there in Young-wol. “It’s really popular. People like it. What do you have in your mind when you think about a teddy bear? It’s like a friend,” Oh said. Their interest began about 15 years ago. Ko was looking for a hobby and began taking classes in the art of teddy-bear making. She had an aptitude for the craft and was soon teaching classes of her own. About 10 years ago, she began collecting bears from other artists from places such as the U.S., Scotland, Germany, Belgium, South Africa and even Canada. By 2010, the collection was so large that the couple had enough to open their own “museum” and Oh quit his job as a private school English teacher. He acknowledges that teddy bears are an unusual business for a grown man. “They suppose I’m a mad man … I like it,” he laughs. The couple’s two sons, ages 15 and 18, moved to Abbotsford as part of the international student program in 2009, and Ko joined them 18 months ago. Oh followed at the beginning of this year, and the teddy bear collection was not far behind. For more information, visit bearga.com.

Outlets outpace electric car purchases But increase in infrastructure may be necessary to encourage use
Alex BUTLER Abbotsford News
Four electric cars were registered in Abbotsford as of Dec. 31, 2012, according to ICBC – but the city has far more places than that to charge them. According to www. plugshare.com, a website that helps electric car owners find places to plug in, there are
charging stations at Highstreet Shopping Centre, the University of the Fraser Valley (UFV), Tim Horton’s on Sumas Way, Abbotsford Nissan, the UFV Flight School, and Abbotsford Senior Secondary School – each operated by the associated location. But the number of charging stations must increase before many
people will consider the switch to electric cars, according to Dr. Denver Nixon, a postdoctoral fellow in the department of geography at the University of the Fraser Valley. Nixon, who has studied a psychological perspective of transportation, said a lack of available chargers can discourage people from considering electric cars
due to anxiety of being caught with no place to recharge. He said this can lead to people opting to using gas-fuelled vehicles, or relying on hybrid vehicles. The newly rebuilt Abbotsford Senior Secondary School has a total of 12 charging stations available onsite – four at the school entrance, four at the Abbotsford Arts Centre entrance, and four near the Abbotsford Community Library entrance. The charging units were included in the construction costs for the new school and funded by the ministry of education. The stations were required for the school to meet the Gold Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) standard. Dave Stephen, manager of communications for the Abbotsford
ALEX BUTLER Abbotsford News
Twelve electric charging units are available for use at Abbotsford Senior Secondary School. School District, said the school has had minimal requests to have the charging stations activated – to date there have only been two during school hours. But despite the loca-
tion’s preparations for an influx of electric vehicles, the spots remain unoccupied – at least for electric cars. Despite the parking spots being clearly marked for electric

vehicles only, Stephen said there has been one complaint by the driver of an electric car who wanted to access a charging unit and couldn’t because gaspowered cars had taken the spaces. But all across the province, the amount of places to plug in has been increasing. Tim Hortons has put six charging stations in locations across B.C., including the one in Abbotsford, which were supported by B.C.’s Community Charging Infrastructure Fund (CCIF). In 2012, the government announced a $2.74-million contribution to the CCIF, which will build 570 charging stations across the province. In January, the province announced $1.3 million to install 13 fast-charging stations, which can charge a vehicle in under an hour.

Legal-Ease
We’ve all heard stories about the “fine print” on consumer transactions and other legal documents. Over the years, I have had many clients ask me about the enforceability of something they have signed. On the other side of the coin, I also get asked if a document that a client has prepared himself is valid and enforceable. Whatever the document may be, a number of factors need to be taken into account to ensure it serves the purpose that the parties intend. Clarity is the most important thing when trying to interpret or create an enforceable agreement. One very common type of legal document is a “waiver” or “release” that is used to protect one party against liability to another party. If you participate in out-

Lester
rights to sue should you suffer injury by virtue of your participation. For example, a person who signs up for a river rafting excursion may be asked to sign a waiver of liability before being allowed to participate. Alternatively, the consumer may be issued a ticket that contains fine
print, often on the back side, that limits or eliminates the liability of the operator of the activity. The key question is in what circumstances do you give up your right to sue if you are injured. It’s not necessarily a question of how badly you may be injured, or how dangerous the activity may be; it’s always a question of whether you understood or ought to have understood what you were getting yourself into by signing the agreement or by agreeing to participate in the activity. A person may complain “I had no choice. They wouldn’t let me participate if I didn’t sign.” Unfortunately, that doesn’t help the average consumer. That is the bargain you enter into when you sign up for a recreational activity. Either you waive
your right to sue or the operator can refuse to allow you to participate. The courts in British Columbia have made it clear that a consumer cannot claim duress or undue influence when he wishes to engage in an inherently risky recreational activity that is controlled or operated by another. The courts have also been clear that it is not unfair for an operator to require a release or waiver as a condition of participation. There are a couple of important qualifiers to this general rule. First, children (in B.C., a person under the age of 19) cannot be bound by waivers, whether signed by themselves or their parents. Second, if the exclusion or waiver is found on the back of a ticket that has not been signed, the question be-
comes whether the participant knew or ought to have known of the limitations imposed by the service provider. This often turns upon a question of whether the language of the waiver or exclusion was reasonably brought to the attention of the participant. That is why you will often see signs at kiosks and service desks urging people to read the fine print and be aware that the operator assumes no liability. Sometimes the particular wording or language of a waiver may not be suitable or applicable for the nature of the injury or the quality of supervision or direction provided. It goes without saying that this subject can be a legal minefield. If you are involved in such a situation, or if you are considering providing services to the general
public, it’s always important to remember to seek legal advice to determine your rights and obligations. Doug is a partner with RDM Lawyers LLP. He

By the end of the year, Metro is to make public a short list of the five additional sites it would option for purchase. The regional board aims to pick a winning proponent and final site (or sites – it has not yet ruled out multiple plants) by 2015. Metro last week approved the site selection criteria. Most of the weight (55 per cent) is to be put on environmental and social factors – air pollution, health risks, water quality impacts, greenhouse gas emissions from waste hauling, proximity to existing and future energy customers, land zoning and compatibility with surrounding uses.

Fees cut in half for cat adoptions
Any Vaccine Dog or Cat
Rabbits are also included in SPCA promotion
The BC SPCA is holding a special promotion featuring halfprice adult cat adoption fees from July 18 to 31 in response to the overwhelming number of felines in care at its shelters. Currently there are 743 adult cats being cared for at SPCA facilities across the province. There are currently 25 cats and kittens in the Abbotsford shelter, as well as 30 in foster care and a waiting list of 25 to come into the facility. “The BC SPCA takes in more than 15,000 homeless felines each year and right now our shelters are filled to capacity,” said Bob Busch, general manager of operations for the BC SPCA. “We always see an influx of animals at our shelters during the summer season and this year is no exception.” He said the BC SPCA’s average cost to care for a cat during its stay is $784, much higher than the actual adoption fee. Costs include vaccinations, spaying or neutering, an identification tattoo or microchip, preventive treatment for internal
and external parasites, any medical care or rehabilitation required, daily welfare monitoring, sheltering and feeding. While the goal of the promotion is to find loving homes for as many adult cats as possible, all the usual adoption criteria will apply. “We want to make sure that the animals are a right fit for their new home and that their needs will be met,” Busch said.
The promotion also includes 50 per cent off rabbit adoption fees to help find homes for the 80 rabbits currently in BC SPCA care. Busch said the majority of these rabbits have each spent more than 100 days in shelters. For more details on the cat adoption promotion, visit your local SPCA branch or go online to spca. bc.ca/halfpricelove. The Abbotsford shelter is located at 34312 Industrial Way.

Jepsen helps B.C. band
B.C. country band Me & Mae have released a new single, co-written by Mission’s Carly Rae Jepsen. Shawn Meehan and Jacky Mae are a country project influenced by everything from Johnny Cash to Dolly Parton. Before Jepsen hit it big with “Call Me Maybe”, Meehan, who had been giving Jepsen guitar lessons, asked Jepsen to lend a hand in writing the song “Love me Leave Me Lonely,” and she agreed. Me & Mae are heading out on a small British Columbia tour this summer, and will perform in Abbotsford at Agrifair on Saturday, Aug. 3.

CELEBRATING OVER
25 YEARS IN ABBOTSFORD
For the third year, The Abbotsford Entertainment Centre donated the proceeds from lunch at the Touch A Truck event to Holmberg House and Matthew’s House. The event provided a great opportunity to display information about the services that Abbotsford Hospice Society provides to our community. Additionally featured was the need for the first adult hospice residence in Abbotsford. This adult Hospice, Holmberg House, is currently under construction on Marshall Road and the west side of the hospital. The campaign goal of 12 million is well underway with 5 million needed to complete the project.
While families toured all of the very special trucks and equipment, they were also able to take home a teddy bear from Abbotsford Hospice Society.

Like television’s Sesame Street, each production features timeless lessons for all ages. Through the razzledazzle of this Broadwayquality musical production, children learn about patience, acceptance and teamwork. Adults will appreciate the hightech stagecraft, cleverly written scripts, and music they’ll recognize and enjoy sharing with children, such as “The Hustle,” “You Should Be Dancing” and “Rockin’ Robin.” The show features nearly two dozen songs, including classics that children will love to sing along with such as “C Is for Cookie” and “The Alphabet Song.” Tickets for the Abbotsford shows can be purchased online at www.abbotsfordcentre. ca by telephone at 1-866977-2372 or in person at the AESC Box Office. Tickets go on sale Aug. 2 at 10 a.m.

Elmo is coming back to Abbotsford in December and he’s bringing his Sesame Street pals with him. Elmo Makes Music features Elmo, Abby Cadabby, Big Bird and all their Sesame Street friends on stage to share their love of music in this Sesame Street Live presentation at the Abbotsford Entertainment and Sports Centre. The shows take place Dec. 14-15. Jenny, an enthusiastic new music teacher, arrives on Sesame Street only to discover that her instruments are missing. Jenny’s new Muppet friends quickly come to the rescue and discover ‘instruments’ they never knew existed – rubber duckies, trash can lids and even cookie jars. Elmo and friends teach children that everyone can make and enjoy beautiful music together.

Toews to coach Abby rugby club Dan KINVIG Abbotsford News
The Abbotsford Rugby Football Club didn’t have to look far to find a new head coach for its men’s program. Harry Toews, a longtime ARFC member who suited up for the club as recently as the provincial Division 1 final in May, is taking on the role. He replaces Jason Young, who served as head coach the past three years and is stepping down due to work commitments. Toews, 41, boasts a wealth of international experience – he’s played for the Canadian senior men’s national team, and for a trio of pro clubs in England. Carlos Navarrete, a member of the ARFC executive, called Toews “the perfect candidate.” “He’s born and bred Abbotsford Rugby Club, and as far as being qualified, he’s played at an extremely high level,” Navarrete noted. “When he applied, he quickly rose to the top of the pile.” The Abby men’s program has been bouncing back and forth be-
tween the CDI Premier League, the province’s most competitive rugby circuit, and Div. 1 in recent years. Abbotsford spent 2010-11 and 2011-12 in the Premier League, but were relegated after finishing 1-13 the latter season. The club regrouped to fashion a memorable 2012-13 campaign, putting teams into the provincial men’s Div. 1, Div. 2 and Div. 3 finals, with the Div. 2 squad claiming the title. Abbotsford has a youthful player pool, with an average age of 23. Top Premier League squads are generally five or six years older than that, on average. Toews said the ARFC is probably two or three years away from making a Premier return. His vision is to help the youngsters develop by providing a solid structure of play. “There’s a lot of good athletes, but the rugby experience and knowledge, that is still to be developed in my opinion,” he said. “It’s a challenge I look forward to.”

Hadwin feeling good about his game heading into Canadian Open he gets it in the hole. “I think that’s kind of the person that I needed to see at that time – not necessarily go technical or anything like that. Because my swing was good, it was just out of rhythm.”
A quick 15-minute session with Schulz ignited a hot streak which has seen Hadwin register back-to-back top10 finishes on the Web. com Tour. He finished in solo fifth place at the United Leasing Championship in Indiana, then tied for seventh at the Utah Championship the following week. Those results rocketed him from 99th on the tour’s money list to his current position in 53rd, with earnings of just shy of $65,000. Beyond the powwow w i t h Schulz, Hadwin s a i d h e ’ s coming into eve n t s with “a HADWIN little bit better demeanor.” “Before, I was extremely frustrated with the way things were going,” he said. “I wasn’t in my sharpest frame of mind to play my best golf. I think that’s changed quite a bit. “I feel much more comfortable with my game right now – I actually know where the golf ball is going, which is nice. Everything seems to be firing on all cylinders.” All of this is to say that Hadwin is riding a wave of confidence heading into the RBC Canadian Open this week. He’s been granted an exemption to the PGA Tour event, which runs Thursday through Sunday at Glen Abbey Golf Club in Oakville, Ont. The Canadian Open has become a special event for Hadwin, who is making his fourth appearance. He won the Rivermead Cup as the low Canadian in both 2010 and 2011, and thrilled local golf fans by contending for the title in 2011 at Vancouver’s Shaughnessy Golf and Country Club, ultimately finishing fourth. Walking up the 18th fairway during the final round two years ago, Hadwin received an amazing ovation from the Shaughnessy gallery – an experience he rates as one of the highlights not only of his golf career, but of his life. “It was an unbelievable feeling to have that support, and to play like I did,” he said. “I look forward to getting up there (to Glen Abbey) and hopefully recreating what I did in 2011.”
Recepticons win flag football title Vancouver teams dominated at the fourth annual Western Canadian Flag Football Championships (WCFFC), held last weekend at Exhibition Park. The Vancouver Recepticons rolled to the title in the Top Flight division, beating the Vancouver Cobras 40-20. Billy Greene, former UBC quarterback and winner of the 2011 Hec Crighton Award as the most outstanding Canadian university football player, was named offensive MVP. The Open division final was also an all-Vancouver affair, as the Vancouver Villains thumped the Vancouver Irish 36-6. Two Abbotsford teams participated in the tournament – the Fraser Valley Touch Football League all-stars fell to the Vancouver Moose in the Top Flight quarter-finals, while the Abbotsford Ram Rods fell short of the Top Flight playoffs. “The tournament was phenomenal,” said organizer Scott Beadell. “We’ve never had weather like this, where it was nice both days.” Beadell was heartened by the generosity shown by the win-

TRADE UP TO B.C.’S #1-SELLING CROSSOVER. ^
Breen among four Heat players to sign new contracts The Calgary Flames have been busy over the past week, signing past and future members of the Abbotsford Heat to new contracts. The signing spree began last Thursday, as defenceman Chris Breen, the Heat’s all-time leader in regular season games played (204), inked a one-year, two-way (NHL/AHL) deal. The Flames followed by announcing similar one-year, two-way contracts for Heat alumni Mark Cundari, Lance Bouma and Paul Byron, along with the signing of draftee Patrick Sieloff. Cundari, a blueliner acquired in a trade this past spring that saw Jay Bouwmeester head to the St. Louis Blues, played two games in Abbotsford after the trade, register-

ing three assists. He was recalled for a four-game stint with the Flames to end the season. Bouma, a rambunctious left winger, has spent the past three seasons mainly with the Heat, but he was sidelined for the vast majority of 2012-13 after severely spraining the ACL and MCL in his right knee. He got into just three games prior to the injury, posting one goal. Byron, a small (5’10”), speedy centre, also battled injuries last season, notching six goals and nine assists in 38 games with the Heat. Additionally, the Flames inked Sieloff, their second-round draft choice in 2012, to a three-year, twoway entry-level contract.

He inspired each of us as he faced every new day with positive optimism. He was born in Vancouver in 1939 to parents Helen and Francis Hutchinson. By age 15, he was working on fishing boats along the B.C. coast, starting a lifelong love of the sea. He pursued a job with Seaspan, earning the title of Captain on ocean hauling tugboats, working as far as the Suez Canal, North Sea, Mexico and Arctic Ocean. Cam was predeceased by his parents, his adoptive parents (Marjorie and Harold Harper), and his two brothers, Robert and Jack. Cameron is survived by his wife of 51 years, Helen Hutchinson (nee Erdman), his sons Brad (Grace) and Len (Crystal), as well as his grandchildren Crissy, Alyssa, Mike, Damien, Andrew, Jeremy, and great-granddaughter Roxana. Cam’s stories, his smile, and sense of humor will be dearly missed by all. No service by request. Donations in his memory to the MS Society appreciated.
HANSOM, Gordon William Jan. 7, 1949 - July 16, 2013 Gord - A husband, dad, papa, son, brother, and friend to so many passed away on Tuesday, July 16th 2013. Gord was a loving and devoted husband to Donna, a kind and gentle father to Marla and Kyle, and a compassionate genuine friend. Gord loved camping, dirt biking, fishing, hunting, and anything outdoors. He shared these passions with his family and friends. A heartfelt thank you for the kind and compassionate care he received at Abbotsford Regional Hospital. A Celebration of Gords’ Life will be held at 1:30pm on August 13, 2013 at the Bradner Hall, 5305 Bradner Rd In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Holmberg House at 604-852-2456 or online at: abbotsfordhospice.org/donate
SIEBERT, Martin On July 19th, 2013 Martin Siebert joined his son Anthony in heaven. Born in the Netherlands, it was not until he moved to Canada that he found the love of his life, Corrine Timmer. While enjoying raising their two daughters they filled their life with home renovations, crazy inventions, and elaborate gardens. Although he faced many trials, his love and commitment to his family and his faith never failed. He will be sorely missed. A Memorial Service will be held on Monday, July 29, 2013 at 2:00 pm at Immanuel Covenant Reformed Church, 35063 Page Road, Abbotsford, BC, with Rev. Steven Swets officiating. Tributes and condolences may be left at:
Amy Rybak, born November 21, 1993, died in a fatal car accident early early on July 14, 2013 at the age of 19. She was a beloved daughter, a loving sister and mentor, an admirable granddaughter, a valued girlfriend, as well as a cherished friend to many. She had a bright future as a culinary colleague and held great plans for herself in the years to come. Though she lives on in our memory she will be greatly missed. A celebration of Amy’s life will be held on Monday, July 29, at 3:00 pm at Cascade Community Church 35190 Delair Rd., in Abbotsford. In lieu of flowers a contribution towards the funeral expenses or to the BCSPCA would be appreciated. Online condolences to the family may be made to: www.wiebeandjeskefh.com

THE APARTMENTS AT MENNO PLACE
RARE OPPORTUNITY - 2 BEDROOM AVAILABLE
Crossing the Bar By Alfred, Lord Tennyson Sunset and evening star, And one clear call for me! And may there be no moaning of the bar, When I put out to sea, But such a tide as moving seems asleep, Too full for sound and foam, When that which drew from out the boundless deep Turns again home. Twilight and evening bell, And after that the dark! And may there be no sadness of farewell, When I embark; For tho’ from out our bourne of Time and Place The flood may bear me far, I hope to see my Pilot face to face When I have crost the bar.
