Chambers join court challenge to five-year U.S. ‘expedited removals’

A provision that lets American border guards arbitrarily bar Canadians from entering the U.S. for at least five years is being targeted by B.C. business leaders who see it as a major threat to cross-border enterprise. The B.C. Chamber of Commerce has joined a lawsuit filed in the U.S. that aims to quash the socalled “expedited removal” process on behalf of local chambers. Allan Asaph, executive director of the Abbotsford Chamber, said expedited removal can cause Canadians crossing the border to be “summarily barred for a five-year period and have no recourse.” Typically, B.C. residents barred from entry under the provision have been deemed by U.S. border staff to have lied under questioning about the reason for their visit. Expedited removal consists of an automatic ban on entering the U.S. for either five years or for life and there’s no avenue for appeal to the courts. Asaph said the issues can often arise not from border-crossers telling lies, but from misunderstandings, confusion, or incomplete documentation. The fact that there is no way to appeal the decision, said Asaph, highlights the disparity of rules and regulaContinued on A4

Abby man faces fraud suit SFU alleges that almost $850,000 was obtained
Vikki HOPES Abbotsford News
NEW PATIENTS WELCOME!
Simon Fraser University (SFU) is suing an Abbotsford man who is alleged to have fraudulently obtained almost $850,000 from the university while he was the director of finance in the faculty of science. In the notice of civil claim filed in B.C. Supreme Court in Vancouver, SFU alleges that chartered accountant Siamak Saidi, 54, submitted and endorsed false invoices to the institution for supplies ordered from six companies for which he is listed as director. The claim states that SFU neither ordered nor received any of the supplies.
The institution alleges that Saidi, whose residence is listed in Abbotsford, used the misappropriated funds to purchase properties, make improvements to properties, and pay for mortgages. The court documents list three properties – in Belcarra, Burnaby and Abbotsford – as having allegedly benefited from the funds. Saidi was employed with SFU from June 2010 until he was terminated in January 2012 due to restructuring. A new manager noticed irregularities in Saidi’s recordkeeping, according to the court documents. An RCMP investigation led to Saidi being charged earlier this month with fraud over $5,000, theft over $5,000, forgery and using
a forged document. His next appearance in Vancouver provincial court on the criminal charges is scheduled for today (Thursday). Saidi is currently on leave from his position as manager of financial services with the Cultus Lake Park Board. The board released a statement, saying they had reviewed all their accounts and investments and found that no unauthorized transactions had taken place. The university is seeking total compensation of $846,926. An order has been granted to freeze Saidi’s assets, including the three properties in question. The allegations in the civil claim have not yet been proved in court nor has Saidi filed a response.

The university will cover 40 per cent of the $200,000 service, while students cover 60 percent through the $6.75 increase in fees.

An issue of ‘equality and fairness’ From A1
lations between Canada and the U.S. “The issue for us, particularly here in Abbotsford, is one of equality and fairness on both sides of the border.� Blaine lawyer Len Saunders said he’s seen perhaps one in 100 bans reversed by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) staff at the post where it was imposed, but beyond that recourse is virtually impossible. “The CBP officer is judge, jury and hangman,� Saunders said, who added he’s seen a case involving a retired Abbotsford
church minister who was regularly crossing the border to go to Lynden to cover for the local minister for three weeks. The first two times he merely said he was visiting the church when asked his reason for coming to the U.S. The third time he said he was covering for the colleague. Although the minister was being paid only a small per diem and didn’t consider himself to be working in the U.S., officers decided he’d lied to them the previous two trips and banned him for five years. “If they can give an expedited removal to a minister from Abbotsford, they can give
one to anyone,� Saunders said. Saunders also recounted a case where a B.C. resident with copies of his resume in his vehicle was barred after guards decided he was looking for work rather than vacationing. Bellingham immigration lawyer Greg Boos has filed a submission in a U.S. court on behalf of the B.C. chamber, the Whatcom County chamber and other stakeholders, explaining that the expedited removal process can be “pretty arbitrary in its application.� Boos said B.C. businesses with key staffers who service
equipment they’ve sold to American clients have been barred, causing chaos for the affected firms. “This has a chilling effect on cross-border trade and commerce,� Boos said, adding it’s open to abuse and discrimination. Asaph said that because Abbotsford has a high number of residents who cross the border on a regular basis, the issue is quite concerning. “The rules of international trade and travel can be complex sometimes, and we just don’t feel people should be penalized so harshly when there is a misunderstanding.�

O World’s best twirlers N SITE! coming to Abby in ’15 About 1,000 competitors to gather at AESC
About 1,000 of the world’s best baton twirlers will head to Abbotsford for the 2015 World Baton Twirling Federation (WBTF) International Cup. The event will run from Aug. 5 to 9, 2015 at the Abbotsford Entertainment and Sport Centre (AESC). Dan Stefanson, executive director of Tourism Abbotsford, who led the preparation of the bid to host the international cup, states that “this will be one of the highest profile sporting events that Abbotsford has ever hosted.” Sandi Wiemers, president of the WBTF, said the organization just completed the 2013 international cup in Almere, Netherlands, stating that it was the largest group of competitors they had seen. “That is a testament to the growth of the sport of baton twirling around the world.” Athletes will be representing approximately 15 to 20 coun-
tries including Croatia, Japan, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands, Puerto Rico, Spain, Sweden, Slovenia, and the United States. The Canadian Baton Twirling Federation (CBTF) was awarded the bid to host the event last summer at the World Federation meetings. Jeff Johnson, CBTF president, said they pursued a number of cities to hold the event. “After months of research, negotiations and visits to potential sites, Abbotsford emerged as the true winner.” He added that “the top Canadian baton twirling athletes will be so proud to represent our country and compete to be world’s best on home soil.” The delegations from around the world will begin arriving in Abbotsford the first weekend of August for officials’ meetings and practice regiments of the competing teams leading up to the start of the event.
Abbotsford schools won’t see job action – yet Kevin MILLS and Tom FLETCHER Abbotsford News
Negotiations with unions representing more than 25,000 school support staff are back on next week, with a strike mandate already in place for B.C.’s 60 school districts as the new school year gets underway. However, Abbotsford students will not be impacted by the possible job action – at least not yet. Abbotsford school superintendent Kevin Godden explained the negotiations taking place are with clerical staff, custodians,
bus drivers and other support staff who are members of the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE). The Abbotsford school district’s support staff are members of the Teamsters Union. He said discussion between the Teamsters and the district have been delayed, but will eventually occur. “The pressing concerns that are out there about job action in the months of September and October really does not impact Abbotsford only because we are not a CUPE district.
“We are in the process of scheduling those meetings with them for later this fall,” said Godden. Education Minister Peter Fassbender said last week he is hopeful a settlement with CUPE staff can be achieved without picket lines disrupting classes. CUPE said staff haven’t had a raise in four years. The latest contract expired in June 2012 after a two-year wage freeze was imposed across the B.C. public service. CUPE is seeking raises of two per cent per year.

Fire destroys top floor of garage
A7
Blaze occurred when homeowners were away A fire broke out on Monday morning in a three-car garage at a home on McCallum Road, south of Huntingdon Road. The fire started around 8 a.m. and caused damage to the top floor of the garage, burning through the roof. Abbotsford police and fire rescue services responded to the incident. Assistant fire chief Jeff Adams said firefighters did a good job of managing the flames and stopping the spread of the fire, but damage to the top of the building was still extensive. “The whole upper floor is gone … the lower part of the shop seems to be pretty good.” Adams said it appears the owners are out of town and as far as firefighters knew, there was no one present at the time of the fire.

Back-to-school labour disputes Tom
Fletcher
B.C. Views Another school year dawns in B.C., with the prospect of disruptive labour disputes. First up are 27,000 support staff, in a legal strike position. These are the teacher aides, custodians, bus drivers and crossing guards. Most are members of the Canadian Union of Public Employees, with a few Teamsters and other locals scattered around the 60 school districts. Public discussion about these disputes usually focuses on wage increases, which CUPE members in schools haven’t seen for four years. Their current deals expired more than a year ago, after they were subject to the same two-year wage freeze imposed on the rest of government. The B.C. government moved from the post-recession wage freeze to a system they call “co-operative gains,” where raises must be financed by savings in other areas of the operation. Only two provincial em-
ployee groups have yet to do this: school support staff and teachers. (Education Minister Peter Fassbender confirmed last week that teacher raises will be funded by extra transfers from the provincial treasury as they try to get a long-term deal. But that’s a topic for another day.) CUPE, the largest union in the country, has a sophisticated media campaign to generate public sympathy. We are repeatedly reminded not only that the last raise was 2009, but that the “average” pay is a mere $24,000 a year. If that number is accurate, it reflects a large number of part-timers. Let’s look at a few provisions CUPE doesn’t talk about, on behalf of those selfemployed taxpayers who have no paid holidays, no employer pension or benefits and no paid overtime, but are expected to help pay all of the above to government workers.
The 60 contracts have many variations, but core elements are the same. In the Central Okanagan school district, the starting CUPE wage rate is $17.37 an hour. The top rate is $26.59, or $28.78 for workers who qualify for a “trades adjustment.” All contracts have rigid seniority and “bumping” clauses to ensure that new employees absorb any reductions in working hours. From a taxpayers’ perspective, this leads to the maximum number of employees making the highest wages. Overtime in Central Okanagan is time and a half for the first two hours, and double time after that. Contracts also include the provision that unscheduled overtime is subject to a four-hour minimum. It’s amazing how often an unexpected hour of work can arise when it’s paid at quadruple time. The Surrey school district contract details how even “spare board” employees are to be enrolled in the municipal pen-
Given the growing gap between public and private employment benefits, finding savings is reasonable.
sion plan, a defined-benefit system most private-sector employees can only dream about. Then there are paid sick days. The Canadian Taxpayers’ Federation reports that the average B.C. private sector worker took 7.4 sick days last year. The public sector average was 12. The Surrey contract details the windfall of unused sick days that must be paid out to employees who retire as early as age 55. The maximum is 150 days, for a lavish perk only available to employees hired before July 1, 1996. Even so, we’ll be paying these bonuses out for years to come. It goes on and on. Six weeks’ paid vacation after 20 years, with an extra day added for every year after that. There are many little things, such as a $60 “swimsuit allowance” for teacher aides who take part in swimming instruction. This is not to devalue the work done by these people. It is to suggest that given the growing gap between public and private employment benefits, finding savings is reasonable.

Development encroaches on space of wildlife Re: “Bear climbs fence, attacks dog in Auguston area,” The News, Aug. 27 Wow! Frightening situation for both pup and owner and I am ever so glad that neither are seriously hurt. No fiercer thing out there than a momma bear protecting her cubs. I have a fear here and it’s quite a big one. I fear that, if this momma “interacts” with anyone else in the next short while that she, and her cubs, will suffer a dire consequence, possibly as severe as being killed to protect the humans. I need to ask, why? I have lived in Abbotsford for 10 years now and I watch as we build more and more homes up the
mountainside and into space that, up until now, has been the domain of bears like this momma and her cubs. We build, we buy, and we live in this space and then get upset when the wildlife visits our backyard, upset enough to end the lives of these animals who are only trying to make the best of what we are leaving them. My advice to those building, buying, and living on these properties is simple. Be prepared to share your space with the wildlife and take the necessary precautions to be safe. Or better yet, stop building.

Road Closure Notice — Gallagher Road
Paper Egg Carton Disposal
Intention to Dispose of City Lands
Gallagher Road, from Beharrell Road to Little Street, will be closed to through traffic due to a culvert replacement at Page Creek. A full road closure will be implemented from Monday, September 16, 2013 to Friday, October 4, 2013. The construction schedule is weather dependent.
Due to a recent change by the recycled paper processing market, please place all paper egg cartons and cardboard egg cartons in your curbside compostable collection and NOT in your curbside recycling. The paper fibre contained in these egg cartons is lower quality than regular paper and cardboard, and lowers the recyclability of the final paper product.

Grandparents’ scam returns Elderly man sends $2,500 to caller
The “grandparents’ scam” has resurfaced in Abbotsford, resulting in a 73-year-old man being defrauded of $2,500. Abbotsford Police Const. Ian MacDonald said the man received a call last Thursday from a woman claiming to be his granddaughter. The woman claimed she had been in a drunkdriving crash in Quebec and needed money to repair her vehicle. The man then wired her the cash. The scam has been widely reported across Canada and has cropped up in Abbotsford on occasion. In 2010, four local women lost between $2,000 and $4,800 each, and a man was scammed out of $9,000 the following year. MacDonald said police continue to receive complaints about the scam, although most do not involve any money being sent.

Neighbourhood beautifies boulevard Dina Place given funding Abbotsford residents have beautified their boulevard after receiving $900 as part of a neighbourhood matching fund. The boulevard project, which the group called “something beautiful is happening here,” was proposed by the Dina Place neighbourhood in 2012, and residents gathered community donations to make their plans a reality. Dina Place is located off of Old Yale Road near Delair Park. The objective of the project was to plant and landscape the street front, turning an eyesore into a beautiful sight, and to help residents get to know each other through a group effort to better their neighbourhood. The residents enjoyed the project and meeting other neighbours so much that they are about to take on the other side of the boulevard. They will clean up the right side of their boulevard by September and celebrate with a block party barbecue. For neighbourhoods interested in submitting a project for the neighbourhood matching fund or with questions regarding the program, call 604859-3134.

Garden art show Great Hearing Starts Here!
Our hearing screenings are free, fast and state-of-the-art. Suspect you have a hearing loss? Come to Beltone. It could simply be earwax. But, if we do detect a loss, you’ll be amazed at the difference today’s new hearing aids make.
TAKE THE HEARING SELF CHECK Do you have trouble hearing and understanding conversations? Do you find yourself asking others to repeat themselves?
The Untamed Garden Studio (located at 8561 Bradner Rd. in Glen Valley) is hosting the annual Art In The Untamed Garden Show and Sale on Sept. 14-15 from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. The show is held outdoors.

The event allows visitors to wander through the gardens while taking in various forms of artwork, whether it is pottery, painting, photography, weaving, quilting, glass works, jewelry and more. Visitors will have a chance to meet the artists and purchase a piece of original artwork. There will be demonstrations to enjoy as well as live music. There are a number of local businesses planning activities for visitors. Tanglebank Nursery will be having garden tours, Mount Lehman Winery and Fort Winery will feature wine tasting, Cranberries Naturally will be providing some product sampling, and the Glen Valley Organic Farm will have farm tours and gate sales. Check the Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/events/155913001238644/?fref=ts) for more information or email info@untamedgarden.com.
Does it seem as though people are mumbling? Do family and friends complain that you play the T.V. too loudly? Is it hard to hear women and children’s voices?
If you answered “YES” to any of the above questions, it’s time to book a hearing test.

More liquor stores may sell cold beer and wine Latest policy reform rankles private store owners
Jeff NAGEL Black Press
Another liquor policy reform being eyed by the province would allow more government liquor stores to sell cold beer and wine, which has long been the domain of private stores. Ten government stores already sell some refrigerated products but the province will now test the waters for a major expansion. Walk-in beer and wine “cold rooms” will open at the end of September at three stores in Burnaby, Duncan and Salmon Arm. That’s the first stage of a pilot project that will add four more walk-in beer and wine refrigeration coolers at existing stores in Oliver, Osoyoos, Mill Bay and Grand Forks later in the fall. The province wants feedback on the idea as part of its already-launched Liquor Policy Review, along with several other proposals for reform. The concept may be in for a rough ride from the organization representing private liquor stores.

The Alliance of Beverage Licensees of B.C. called the move a surprise and said it would throw private outlets and government stores into more direct competition. John Yap, the parliamentary secretary for the liquor policy review, said all other Canadian provinces offer refrigeration in most, if not all, of their government liquor stores. “This is another area where we think B.C. is lagging behind other jurisdictions,” Yap said. “Refrigeration units seem to be very popular with customers, but the public and industry will now have the opportunity to give us feedback on whether this is something they would like to see on a larger scale around the province.” Other potential reforms being explored include licensing farmers’ markets and spas to serve alcohol and letting under-aged children have lunch at a pub with their parents during the day. Public consultations run until Oct. 31 and a website for comments is to launch next month.

THE ENVISION CONCERT IN THE PARK SERIES
A group of University of the Fraser Valley (UFV) students spent the last days of their summer vacation collecting donations for the Abbotsford Food Bank, which they hope will be only the beginning of their community contributions. Navneet Dhaliwal and Ravneet Gill are beginning their first year at the University of the Fraser Valley. Maninder Gill, is a third-year UFV student, and Gurinderpal Gill, is a second year student. They recently created a group called Youth Engaging Youth, which will team up with organizations such as the Abbotsford Police Department and local schools to help get local young people engaged. With school out and the project still in its infancy, they decided to do the first project on their own. “We heard that the food bank was lacking

They canvassed their friends and family members for donations, then bought food to donate. Once classes start, they hope to work with young students to run food drives in local schools. Maninder Gill said the goal is to help young students make good choices and instil good values at a young age.
“We know that not all kids have the same support that we have.” The group is supported by the Khalsa Diwan Society, which helps them organize their projects. Jaskarn Singh, a member of the society, said they are looking for more members – motivated young people of university age – to help with Youth Engaging Youth. For more information, call Maninder at 778292-2113 or Navneet at 604-832-1053.

Seamus McGrath runs a promotion company and record label to champion local punk and rock music. music. McGrath runs Not Yer Buddy, an Abbotsfordbased promotion company and record label. McGrath said that although Abbotsford already has a supportive music community, his goal is to provide an outlet for the type of musicians who struggle to get exposure – punk and rock bands. “The bands that play punk rock, and garage rock and metal, they don’t have outlets here,” he said. “(We’re trying) to create a sustainable environment for those bands.” McGrath started out organizing concerts in local homes, putting a special emphasis on making sure the events were safe and not attended by police. After moving to Abbotsford in 1997, McGrath understood that the underground music scene in Abbotsford was as-

sociated with violence. But, he wanted to create a space for people to enjoy their music without any threat. “I just wanted a safe, music-rich environment for my friends.” In November 2011, he organized the first show under the Not Yer Buddy title in a local home. “Our goal was to do responsible house shows – shows where the cops didn’t show up.” Eventually, he wanted to legitimize the concerts and bring them into a bar setting. McGrath struck a deal with Gator’s Pub on Essendene Avenue to start hosting performances on the weekends. He now runs concerts about every two weeks on Fridays at Gator’s, and also organizes concerts in Vancouver. Though he strives to bring bands from other cities into Abbotsford, he emphasizes promoting local talent, which he says also helps to draw in local fans. McGrath’s efforts are aided by his wife and friends who volunteer their time to help organize, take tickets at the door, and ensure a controlled event. Without their help, McGrath said it wouldn’t be possible to run the events and properly pay the bands who perform. To support the promotion outfit financially, McGrath sells merchandize and operates as a record label, releasing albums and compilations with music from local bands. McGrath said the second compilation he made sold out in two months. For more information and concert schedules, visit facebook.com/Not. Yer.Buddy or http:// not-yer-buddy-records. bandcamp.com/.

Marking 70 years of Abbotsford’s aviation history Michael DESMAZES News Contributor

fourth and final school sponsored by the Vancouver Air Training Co. Ltd. The VATC was set up by the Aero Club of British Columbia under the guidance of the RCAF to train fledgling pilots for the Second World War. Abbotsford was one

between August and September of that year including the three remaining hangars, the Abbotsford Flying Club building and two others. Several hundred pilots were trained at 24 EFTS. However only a few of them would see active service in this war. This was due to the fact that by mid-1944 the BCATP had a huge surplus of trained pilots and the Air Force could afford to be selective. Records show at least one Abbotsford graduate was decorated for service in Burma flying his Dakota transport over the hump to supply the British Army. A second Abbotsford graduate would hold the distinction of taking part in flying Canada’s first jet fighters (Vampires) from
Canada to Germany as part of Canada’s NATO commitments in 1951. This same pilot took part in the 300 plane Coronation flypast in 1953. At the height of operations at No. 24, EFTS had 100 PT-23 Cornell trainers flying in and
out of Abbotsford’s Aerodrome. The civilian staff of over 200 maintained the aircraft and the Aerodrome and as a result of the VATC’s management, 24 EFTS had become one of the most efficiently run schools in Canada. Research to date
shows at least eight of Abbotsford’s former Cornell aircraft are still registered in the United States. No small miracle when one considers that the Cornell is a wood and fabric covered aircraft that was manufactured some 70 years ago.

UFV soccer teams kick off season
Women working to overcome injuries, men aiming for first playoff berth Dan KINVIG Abbotsford News
Rob Giesbrecht and the University of the Fraser Valley women’s soccer team are about to embark on a brand new Canada West regular season, but the Cascades bench boss could be forgiven if it all felt like dÊjà vu. For the second straight year, knee injuries are wreaking havoc on the UFV midfield. In 2012, before the Cascades’ first regular season game was even in the books, stars Mackenzie Shopland and Chelsea Steffen were lost for the season with torn anterior cruciate ligaments. The UFV side, hobbled though it was, still managed to nail down a playoff berth, finishing seventh in Canada West at 6-5-1, but they were bounced in the first round by the second-seeded Victoria Vikes. Fast forward to last month, and during preseason practices, starting midfielders Shopland and Kara Delwo both went down with knee injuries. The good news is, neither injury appears

Nevertheless, it’s an obstacle to be overcome as the Cascades

Currie conquers Death Race Completed a 125-kilometre course through Rocky Mountains in under 24 hours Dan KINVIG Abbotsford News
According to the Canadian Death Race website, no one has actually died while participating in the grueling endurance event. But given the course specifics, if you’re able to traverse the entire distance and live to tell about it, you’ve accomplished something. The race, held annually in Grande Cache, Alta. on the edge of the Canadian Rockies, features a 125-kilometre course, and runners have a 24-hour time limit to reach the finish line. “The town is at 4,000 feet, and you go over three peaks that are between 6,500 and 7,000 feet,” explained Brock Currie, a 34-yearold science teacher at Abbotsford Traditional Secondary who has run the Canadian Death Race twice in the last three years. “It’s all trail running, pretty much – there’s just a little bit that’s on the road.” Currie first caught the running bug four years ago when he ran his first marathon – his sister convincing him on a Tuesday to run an event on Sunday of the same week. In 2011, he and his brother-in-law Jeremy Spainhour decided to take on something a little more intense, and settled on the Grande Cache event. As it turned out, they had bitten off more than they could chew. A nagging knee injury forced Spainhour out of the race, and Currie didn’t drink enough water, got dehydrated and cramped up. He too failed to finish. Two years later, the duo took another crack at it, and this time they got the job done. “Once I got to the summit in the fourth stage, around 80k in, I knew I was going to make it,” Currie said. “You could see the town way in the distance. I knew I had 45k more to go, but a lot of it was downhill.” In 2011, Currie and Spainhour had purchased two victory cigars in anticipation of
finishing the race, but they went unlit as the moment never materi-
alized. Two years later, as they approached the finish line, Currie

The Abbotsford Heat added some depth up front last week, signing Steve Begin and Carter Bancks to one-year AHL contracts. Heat fans are familiar with Bancks, who has spent three full seasons with the club. The 24-year-old’s most productive offensive season was in 201011, when he posted 19 points in 29 games before being sidelined due to a concussion. The gritty forward also missed time due to injury each of the two subsequent seasons, suiting up for 55 games in 2011-12 and 59 in 2012-13. He made his NHL debut at the tail end of last season, playing two games with the Calgary
Carter Bancks Flames. Begin represents a veteran presence in what is shaping up to be a youthful Heat roster. The 35-year-old has 524 NHL games under his belt with the Flames, Montreal Canadiens, Dallas Stars, Boston Bruins and Nashville Predators. He suited up for 36 games with Calgary last season, notching four goals and four assists.

Men’s squad battling in nation’s toughest division From A28
weird things happen sometimes.” Giesbrecht feels better-equipped to deal with injury-related adversity this season. After graduating a huge chunk of 2010’s title-winning team, the UFV roster the last two years has been populated largely by youngsters. Those players have gained valuable experience, and that bodes well. Key returnees include reigning team MVP Carly Neeson, who will be moving from her natural striker spot to midfield while Shopland and Delwo are absent, and keeper Kayla Klim, who spent the summer with the W-League’s Dayton (Ohio) Dutch Lions. Rookie midfielder Carley Radomski, a former Canada U17 team player and a product of the Whitecaps Girls Elite program, is expected to make an immediate impact. “We had to completely rebuild the program, and I think we’ve done it – we’ve got a good team here,” Giesbrecht said. “We want to be one of the top four teams so we can host a playoff game and get to the Canada West Final Four. And once you’re there, you might as well plan on winning the thing and going to nationals. “That one banner hanging up there in our gym is looking a bit lonely. We’d like to hang one up there beside it.” • On the men’s side, Canada West’s Pacific Division in arguably the toughest in the nation, housing traditional powerhouses UBC, Trinity Western and UVic. With only three playoff spots up for grabs in the division, it’s easy to see why the UFV men are still seeking their first-ever post-season berth heading into their eighth Canada West campaign. Cascades coach Alan Errington views defending national champ UBC as the clear favourite again in 2013, but believes his side has what it takes to overtake one (or both) of the other two teams and finally taste the playoffs.
“UVic and Trinity, we’re as good as them if not better,” asserted Errington, whose team went 5-5-4 and missed the post-season by a single point in 2012. “That’s what we’ve got
to shoot for. “It’s a good challenge, because it’s always great games against the two of them,” he added. “It’s sometimes not the best team that wins, it’s the one with
the most passion and desire. They’re real derby games – there’s more to it than just the game of football between us and Trinity, and UVic as well.” Errington welcomes
defenders Ravi Singh and Sahib Phagura. Keeper Mark Village, a second team Canada West all-star last year, also returns. • The UFV soccer teams open the regu-
back a veteran-laden roster which includes the three O’Neill brothers (defenders Colton and Trevor, and midfielder Connor), strikers Justin Sekhon and Dalibor Plavsic, and
lar season this Friday at their home pitch, Chilliwack’s Exhibition Field. The women kick things off vs. UNBC at 5 p.m., followed by the men vs. Trinity Western at 7:15 p.m.

Brock Currie, a 34-year-old science teacher at Abbotsford Traditional Secondary, completed the 125-km “Death Race” in Grande Cache, Alta.
‘A relief’ to finish race
From A29
up and crossed the line together, in 66th and 67th places in a time of just over 21 hours and 42 minutes. “It was a relief [to finish], but we were so excited,” he said. Most of the field participated as part of relay teams, but of the athletes who attempted the entire course solo, only 148 of 371 (40 per
cent) completed it. Having conquered the Canadian Death Race once, Currie isn’t sure whether he’d try it again. “I don’t know if I’d do this exact one,” he said. “My wife hates the training – I probably ran 25 marathon distances this year, and it’s so time-consuming. I’d like to try an Ironman triathlon next.”

ABBY FEST
Fraser Valley Watercolour Society focus of exhibit The Abbotsford Arts Council will present a new show at the Kariton Art Gallery called Treasures. The exhibit features works by members of the Fraser Valley Watercolour Society and offers a wide range of traditional watercolour paintings as well as experimental paintings done in mixed media. Non-perishable food donations for the Abbotsford Food Bank will be accepted at the Kariton Art Gallery throughout the exhibition. Started in 1989, the Fraser Valley Watercolour Society has become an integral part of the Abbotsford community. The society now has a membership of approximately 45 artists. Society members share a love of the arts and offer mutual support and encouragement as they paint and enjoy art together. Offering a wide variety of styles and subject matter, the members of the FVWS regularly display original art works. Many of the members’ paintings are inspired by local scenery, and local interest in the artwork of the society has heightened the enthusiasm and enhanced the creativity of its members. Treasures will run from Sept. 20 to Oct. 22 at the Kariton Art Gallery, located in Mill Lake Park at 2387 Ware St. The gallery’s hours are Tuesday to Friday from noon to 5 p.m., and Saturday to Sunday from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. The artists will be present at an opening reception on Sunday, Sept. 22, from 1-4 p.m. For additional information, please contact the Abbotsford

Barry Delaney, senior vice-president, business development, at First West Credit Union and a long-time Abbotsford resident, is the new chair of the University of the Fraser Valley (UFV)

A38 Abbotsford News Thursday, September 5, 2013
Delaney elected chair of UFV board of governors well as UFV chancellor Brian Minter and president and vice-chancellor Mark Evered. “UFV’s greatest strength is our people, and that includes our board members, both
past and present. I would like to acknowledge the many contributions of outgoing chair Larry Stinson, and I look forward to the excellent leadership from the board continuing with new chair Barry Delaney,” said Evered. “We are very fortunate to have such a talented and dedicated group of individuals who volunteer their personal time to serve on the university’s board. They provide us with invaluable guidance in achieving our goals of educational excellence and leadership in the development of the Fraser Valley.” Delaney has been a member of the UFV board of governors since January 2012. Previously, he was connected to the university as a member and then as chair of the UCFV Foundation, which managed fundraising efforts before that function was integrated into UFV’s University Advancement office. While serving on the foundation, he was part of the Friends of UCFV, a commu n i t y group t h a t lobbied DELANEY successfully for university status for the former universitycollege. Delaney is excited about the future of UFV and the possibilities that are ahead for the university. “It really is a jewel within the Fraser Valley and a leader within Canada in so many areas. The university is a major employer in our region, a community leader, and it provides educational opportunities for so many students.” Delaney added, “I love that UFV has a mandate to provide the best undergraduate education in Canada. It is exciting to be associated with an organization that operates and plans on such an ambitious scale nationally. “As part of the board at UFV, it’s our responsibility to help find new and innovative ways to close the gap between government funding and the increasing costs of running a university.”

Forgotten heroes of fall colour Keeps your garden looking fresh and vibrant in autumn The long beautiful summer has been great for enjoying our patios and gardens, but it has taken its toll on some of our annuals and perennials. To keep our gardens looking fresh and vibrant, it’s hard to beat the fantastic perennial rudbeckias, like ‘Goldstrum’, ‘Early Bird Gold’ and their many new cousins. One of the best new compact versions is the amazing R. ‘Little Goldstar’ that slips in easily with annuals to reinforce late summer colour. The many coreopsis
varieties, like ‘Zagreb’ and C. grandiflora, have a no quit habit, and when joined by the new red flowering varieties, like C. ‘Big Bang Mercury Rising,’ it fills out the colour range. The perennial geranium ‘Rozanne’, with its non-stop blue flowers, gives a no quit performance as well and just flows colour until frost, no matter what the weather brings. If these varieties are not in your garden, now’s a great time to pop them in. The forgotten heContinued on A40

ON AVERAGE, YOUR BRAKE FLUID SHOULD BE FLUSHED AND REPLACED EVERY 36 MONTHS
BRAKE FLUID FLUSH
Corrosion is the #1 cause of brake component failure. Corrosion can pit the metal bores of the master cylinder, and ABS components. Just like engine oil, coolant and transmission fluid, brake fluid “wears” over time. Not only does brake fluid wear, but the internal brake components also wear, producing “sludge”. This leaves the brake system vulnerable to corrosion and compromise.

roes of fall colour, however, are the delightful Japanese anemones. Growing from 2-4 ft. (.61.2m), they can be used almost anywhere in the landscape in sun or shade and can be enjoyed as individual plants or used in mass plantings as a ground cover. Anemones will be significantly taller in the shade as they stretch for a bit of light but will still provide powerful colour. Their hardiness is rated to at least zone 5 or lower and honestly flower from late July well into October and even November.
Brian
Minter Gardening They come in shades of pink and white and in both double and single flower forms. Singles tolerate the fall rains far better, but both are very resilient. This year for the very first time, there are more compact varieties of anemones, enabling them to fit nicely into foreground plantings and containers. From Blooms Perennials in England, there are three wonderful new varieties that grow only 16 inches (40cm) tall and about 20 inches (50cm) wide. A ‘Pretty Lady Emily’ has 2½-3 inch clear pink blooms with a bright yellow centre. It’s very full and busy. A ‘Pretty Lady Susan’ has 2 inch deep pink single flowers with a nice yellow centre. It too is full and busy. A ‘Pretty Lady Diana’ is one of the most attractive with 2 inch single pink flowers with contrasting darker petals for a slight bi-colour effect and again with yellow centres. Other breeders are developing more compact Japanese anemones, and you’ll see quite a selection next year. For now, the ‘Lady’ series is a very welcome addition to our late summer and fall gardens. They love moisture, especially in dry locations, so water well to keep that colour going into late October.

She was born in Botha, Alberta to Fred and Sophia Wischoff. The family moved to BC and resided in Mt. Lehman and Abbotsford. She was a long term resident before she moved to Tsawwassen, BC 9 years ago to be near family. Predeceased by husband Ted Gallvitz (1987); grand daughter Allison Simpson (1991); 1 sister and 3 brothers. Her remaining older sister, Anne, who was born 1 day earlier, 3 years apart, passed away 14 hours later in Ladner, BC.

At this time, Martha’s children would like to extend their gratitude to all extended family members, friends and especially the KinVillage Assisted Living and the KinVillage Care Home health professionals who gave Martha excellent care while showing her family loving and compassionate understanding along with Doctor Park who cared for her during her last 9 years. A special Thank You to her dedicated friend Marilyn Carter, who remained faithful throughout her later years. The Memorial Service will be held on Friday, September 6, 1:30 PM at the Trinity Lutheran Church, 3845 Gladwin Road, Abbotsford, BC with a reception celebrating her life after. Interment will be at the Abbotsford Hazelwood Cemetery immediately after the service, where she will rest alongside her husband Ted.
