Rounding up and riding the RAM range 2014 RAM Roundup The full-size truck market is big business for automakers and a big deal for the businesses and people who depend on them. For almost five decades the Ford F-150 has been the best selling truck, with little chance they will lose that crown in the near future. What has been happening, over the last few years, is a strong shift from General Motors to RAM in terms of establishing the second best selling truck brand. The rise in RAM

GM too has recently released all-new Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra trucks but the initial sales response has been rather lacklustre.

Chances tries again for liquor primary Jennifer Feinberg The Progress It’s been about a year since Chances Chilliwack community gaming centre opened with all due fanfare on Young Road. Chilliwack Gaming Ltd./Chilliwack Chances reps will be making a case this Tuesday at city hall for why they should be granted a liquor primary licence. An information meeting is set for Nov. 5 to allow the public an opportunity to comment on the application. They tried and failed to get a revision to their existing food primary licence earlier this year. They wanted a clause that would allow gaming patrons to get up out of their seats and dance with a “public participation” clause. At the time, some local bar owners and members of council said it would be better if the Chances management went directly into an application for their liquor primary licence, instead of accepting any interim option. “We said absolutely, and that was always our long-term desire,” said Chuck Keeling, executive director of stakeholder relations for Great Canadian Gaming. As indicated in earlier press reports, they want to be seen as more than just a gambling venue. “We also want to underscore the entertainment aspect of what we do. And if people can’t dance to a band that’s playing, it’s a lost opportunity.” Right now there is no dancing permitted and minors are allowed to come in by a side entrance to the The Well dining room, which is not licensed to serve alcohol. “Why didn’t we open with this type of licensing? The property on Young Road is not currently designated under the OCP for a facility with liquor primary licensing. “If we were going to open when we did, we knew it had to be with a food primary licence,” said Keeling. How will it differ with liquor primary licensing? Continued: CHANCES/ p4

Students learn lessons of sacrifice Katie Bartel The Progress Three elderly men sat before a group of school-aged children, speaking to them of things their young minds could not fathom. They talked of playing soccer next to a minefield, of starving with nothing but a cup of cold, watery soup to sustain them. They told of sleeping in air-raid shelters, in slit trenches, and underneath vehicles in the jungle. Their audience was riveted, wide-eyed, with hands spearing the air and a bevy of questions ready to roll off their tongues as soon as the opportunity was granted.
“Were there tommy guns and old-fashioned cars?” “Did people get forced into the war if they didn’t want to go?” “What are the Germans like now?” “Did you ever get attacked by an animal?” For 13 years, the Canadian Forces Base Chilliwack Historical Society has been offering Canada Remembers presentations to Chilliwack schools, inviting classes into the Masonic Hall to tour the artifacts and listen to local veterans speak of their times in war and peacekeeping missions. Every year the program brings in more than 1,000 stu-
dents during the course of the week it runs. For CFB veteran Jim Harris, it’s personal. “When I was in Europe, I noticed the kids over there knew more about Canadian military history than our own students,” Harris said. “I wanted our students to know as much or more than what kids outside the country know. They’ve got a lovely, beautiful country here, they’re free, and they should know the reasons why, and what the price was that our Canadian soldiers, men and women, have paid.” On a brisk morning last week, students from Evans elementary listened to the
military tales of Pieter van der Maden, Harry Mayne, and Pat Johnston. van der Maden was just five years old, living in Holland, when the Second World War broke out. He went from having a house full of food to his mom having to ride into the city, on a bike with a flat tire, to sell her jewelry just so she could get a handful of potatoes for her children to eat. In 1944 – the “Hongerwinter” – van der Maden was nine years old and skin and bones. More often than not, the only sustenance available was a cup of ice-cold soup that was “90 per cent water.” Continued: STUDENTS/ p14

District sticks with drugs and alcohol policy for now Katie Bartel The Progress Chilliwack school district’s drugs and alcohol policy will remain as is, but that doesn’t mean changes aren’t coming down the pipe. At Tuesday’s board meeting, Chilliwack Board of Education approved to keep Policy 500, Drugs and Alcohol, as is at the recommendation of the Education Policy Advisory Committee. The committee, which has representation from trustees, administration, teachers, support staff, parents and students, felt students needed the boundaries outlined in the policy. “The students [on the committee] spoke very clearly and unanimously
in that we needed to maintain our position in this policy,” said trustee Doug McKay, who sits on the committee. The only trustee in opposition of the current policy was trustee Barry Neufeld. Neufeld, a former probation officer and restorative justice facilitator with the Ministry of Children and Family Development, said the policy is a disservice to a large portion of Chilliwack’s student body. “With all due respect to the students on this committee, I don’t really think they adequately represent the kids who are struggling and don’t feel connected to their community,” said Neufeld. “This policy is archaic, punitive,
Return to two-week spring break
and not worthy of a modern education system.” Neufeld said the policy, which encourages a drugs- and alcoholfree school environment, does more harm than good. “Students with addiction problems, they have a disease, they’re sick. When they’re going through troubling times, removing them from their friends and school environment will only make it worse,” he said. “If we’re really serious about wanting to increase graduation rates, then this policy is totally out of sync.” But policy is a belief statement, not a directive, said trustee McKay. Where changes may still occur is in the drugs and alcohol regulation,
which is a directive created by senior management and administration. Currently, that regulation is zero tolerance for secondary school students. Supt. Evelyn Novak told The Progress the drugs and alcohol regulation will undergo a review sometime in January or February, in which principals and vice principals will have an opportunity to provide input. She also said students and parents may also be surveyed. “We’re going to take a look at the research, what’s working and not working, how this fits with what we currently want to happen, and how we work with students,” said Novak.

MacAhonic new ED at Ann Davis
Katie Bartel Chilliwack students will once again be getting two weeks at spring break. But only for one year. Chilliwack Board of Education approved a temporary, two-week spring break for the 201415 school year. Following a parent survey earlier this year that had a majority of respondents in favour of two weeks over one, four out of five school trustees voted in favour of a two-week break. Trustee Doug McKay was the only trustee in opposition, while trustee Silvia Dyck was not in attendance. Trustee Heather Maahs applauded the motion, noting it was probably overdue given that parent surveys completed in the 2011-12 school year indicated Chilliwack parents were in favour of a two-week spring break then, yet the board continued with the one-week break. Trustee Barry Neufeld said it would put Chilliwack in line with other nearby school districts including Agassiz and Abbotsford. “I think this will increase staff morale and probably cut back on absenteeism,” said Neufeld. But trustee McKay said the one thing missing from the conversation was student education. “I haven’t heard one thing on how this might impact student achievement… not one word,” he said. “And that saddens me greatly.” The extended spring break will run from March 23 to April 2, with the addition of Good Friday being April 3. Support staff in the district have been assured they will not be financially impacted by the two-week break, however those details have not yet been determined. The decision to go two weeks is not a costsavings measure, said Supt. Evelyn Novak, but rather a cost-neutral option. The approval of the two-weeks is on a oneyear only basis. The board will review the option again next year.
was the impetus for the district taking a closer look at its drugs and alcohol policy and regulation. In September, 10 Grade 12 students at Sardis secondary were expelled for admitting to smoking marijuana while on a school-sanctioned soccer tournament. “I think because of the number of students at one time, because of the groups involved, it shone a light on the policy and regulation,” said Novak. “And we had feedback from parents and students. “We want to be responsive to our staff, as well as our community.”

Ann Davis Transition Society has a new director. ADTS board members spent months painstakingly seeking a new executive director to replace longtime ADTS head Bobbi Jacob, who is retiring after 18 years in the role. “We are delighted to announce today that following a comprehensive hiring process that attracted a strong pool of candidates, the board has chosen Patti MacAhonic as its new executive director,” said ADTS board chair Kathy Clement. Patti MacAhonic has lived in Chilliwack for more than 20 years, and has a MBA and a bachelor of Adult Education from UFV. “She brings a wealth of management experience, with stellar leadership and proven fund development skills,” added Clement. Patti has held the position of executive director for several organizations including Chilliwack Chamber of Commerce and BC Wildlife Federation, as well as the B.C. Brain Injury Association and AgassizHarrison Community Services. Patti rose to some prominence while lobbying for legislative changes to benefit survivors of workplace accidents. She was instrumental in finally getting B.C’s Bill C37 passed in 2003. She also made headlines in town earlier this year when she ran for provincial election under the B.C. New Democratic Party banner against criminologist John Martin. Patti said she is excited taking on this new challenge and the chance to assist in taking the organization to the next level.

School district surplus explained Katie Bartel The Progress The deficit of the Chilliwack school district’s unrestricted reserves wasn’t as significant as was initially thought. A clarification on the school district’s surplus balance was explained at Tuesday’s board meeting following concern raised at the previous meet-
ing regarding the “disappearance� of more than $800,000 since June from the unrestricted reserves. At the last finance committee meeting held in June, the school district’s preliminary estimates showed approximately $1.3 million in unrestricted reser ves, $500,000 of which would be going to
the final implementation of the district-wide technology upgrade. However, in the final audit released earlier this month, that reserve fund had depleted to $532,768. But those estimates were just estimates. The amended budget, approved by the board on June 25, included a $700,000

operating deficit for the 201213 school year, which left the actual surplus at $655,268 as of June 30. That means the difference between the figures presented in June and the figures that were presented at the final audit is $122,500 – not $800,000.

is routine in U.S. grocery stores. But Yap is proposing a less convenient model, a “store within a store” that would have separate space and staff for alcohol purchases. He said the number of outlets could be restricted to the current level, with some existing private or public liquor stores moved into grocery stores. The Liquor Control Board of Ontario has announced a similar pilot project, with 10 “express” stores to offer limited selection inside or next to grocery stores. Nova Scotia also has government liquor stores located in grocery stores. When the B.C. consultation began in September, Yap noted that beer, wine and spirits are already sold in rural grocery stores. He was critical of the U.S. model, saying it could lead to increased health and safety issues from increased consumption, as well as law enforcement problems. B.C.’s medical health officers have called for a freeze or reduction to the number of private retailers, a $3 minimum price for bar drinks and higher prices for drinks with more alcohol content to deter over-consumption. The Alliance of Beverage Licencees, representing pubs, bars and private liquor stores in B.C., isn’t happy with the idea. ABLE BC executive director Ian Baillie said the province already has more than 1,400 government and private liquor stores. “The government also needs to consider what the impact of allowing large grocery chains to sell liquor will be on the thousands of jobs and millions of dollars of income that are provided by the current system,” Baillie said.

Cost of major B.C. quake pegged at $75 billion Jeff Nagel Black Press Damage to southwestern B.C. buildings, roads, pipelines and other critical infrastructure could hit $75 billion in a major earthquake, according to a new study. The 345-page report commissioned by the Insurance Bureau of Canada modelled a 9.0-magnitude subduction zone earthquake well off the west coast of Vancouver Island and Washington State. The strongest ground shaking and damage levels would be on the western side of Vancouver Island closest to the epicentre. But the report projects more overall damage in Victoria due to its many older, vulnerable buildings, as well as in the Lower Mainland from moderate shaking because of the sheer number of buildings and infrastructure at risk. The modeling forecasts a high shaking intensity in areas such as Delta, Richmond and Victoria, causing extensive damage to unreinforced masonry buildings, including partial collapse. A large area of Sur rey, Bur naby, Coquitlam and Vancouver Island would experience the second-highest level of shaking intensity, significantly damaging poorly built buildings and causing slight to moderate damage to better structures. The report says lowlands with risky soil types could see significant damage from ground liquefaction, causing buildings to settle, tilt or slide. “Liquefaction damage is expected in Delta, Richmond and por tions of Bur naby, Sur rey, Port Coquitlam, Pitt Meadows, Maple Ridge and Abbotsford

due to the loose granular sediments, high water table, and long duration ground shaking.� It also cautions ground failure from liquefaction can also have a “great impact� on roads, freeways, bridges and buried pipelines. Some dikes around the Fraser River delta area may also be affected, compromising their ability to prevent flooding if a tsunami wave also arrives at high tide. Most low-rise residential buildings in Richmond are expected to face moderate damage, as well as government buildings around Richmond City Hall, it says. The report predicts some roads will be damaged and impassable, water supply and other buried services will be compromised and drivers should expect many bridges to be temporarily closed, if only for a few hours to check for damage that may be slight in most cases. V a n c o u v e r International Airport would likely be cut off by road in the first few days due to the shutdown of access bridges. And road travel between Vancouver or Richmond and suburbs to the east and south is also expected to be impaired, the
on in damaged areas. IBC president Don Forgeron said Canada is unprepared for such a disaster and said the bureau is launching a national conversation on how better to prepare. “If a mega-earthquake should strike in a densely populated area, insurance alone will not pay for all the damage,� he said. “Governments and consumers have a role to play.� While the report focused on a subduction zone mega-quake, it didn’t look at the risks of smaller, shallower quakes that seismologists say could also cause severe damage if they strike closer to populated areas. The report includes detailed maps of projected shaking intensity and damage outcomes in Metro Vancouver and Greater Victoria.
report says. The study predicts a resulting tsunami would cause the greatest damage from flooding along the west coast of Vancouver Island, but waves of up to one metre above normal could also reach some Metro Vancouver shorelines. The repor t says some residential buildings in west Richmond could experience substantial tsunami damage. Ear thquaketriggered landslides are a high risk along par ts of western Vancouver Island, it says. And the findings suggest firefighters in Victoria and Metro Vancouver will battle intense local fires, possibly spreading from block to block. Those fires may not ignite immediately, but later, as power transmission is restored and electricity is turned back

An appetite for reform There is irony in the fact that this weekend’s Conservative party convention is being held at the fountainhead of Senate reform, while at the same time the Upper House remains mired in controversy of historic proportion. It was in Calgary that an erstwhile young leader of the Reform Party found his most sympathetic ear for a reformed Senate. Preston Manning didn’t just want to change it, he promised to reinvent it as “equal, elected and effective.” There was appetite for change. The Senate was far from equal, Manning said, particularly when a province like New Brunswick was allowed 10 senators (one for every 75,000 citizens), while Alberta had only six (one for every 661,000). And it was hardly effective. Rather than generating meaningful work, it was a retirement home for party supporters and failed politicians. (And if that argument was easy to make in the late 1980s, it was easier a decade later when it was learned Senator Andy Thompson was in fact living in Mexico and showing up in Ottawa just long enough to punch his Senate timecard.) As for elected, Alberta warmed to that notion immediately, becoming the first (and only) province to elect the person the provincial government would then recommend to the prime minister for

appointment to the Senate. The dream of Senate reform has softened as Manning’s Reform party morphed into the present-day Conservative Party. But with Manning’s former policy advisor Stephen Harper at the helm, it remains a popular topic. Indeed, Harper’s latest attempt was shot down last week by the Quebec Court of Appeal. The ruling confirmed one of the most difficult aspects of Senate Reform; that significant change would mean either garnering support from seven provinces (containing half the country’s population), or reopening the constitution – something few politicians have any desire to do. Which leaves the squalid little display we’ve been witnessing in Ottawa. The latest word is that a vote to expel Senators Duffy, Wallin and Brazeau likely won’t happen until after the Conservative convention this weekend. That will mean the 3,000 delegates expected will have plenty of opportunity to weigh in on the topic. Some will undoubtedly question Harper’s ham-fisted handling of the affair. But another narrative likely to emerge will have the familiarity of an old friend: That the Senate is an antiquated and obsolete institution, and that the public has a renewed appetite for change. ~ Greg Knill, Chilliwack Progress
B.C. V IEWS
Book reveals perils of an ‘entitlement state’ VICTORIA – With the B.C. and federal governments once again struggling to climb out of deep operating deficits, it’s a good time for the release of Mark Milke’s book Tax Me, I’m Canadian. An update of the same title published 12 years ago, the book retains the history of taxes in Canada, detailing how Canada’s tax system was initially built to mimic the United States system in the late 19th century. Beyond the history, it is mostly new material. Included are chapters on the global meltdown of 2009, the surge of pension liabilities as the baby boomers retire and the flawed logic behind the “Occupy” and “Idle No More” protests. Some readers will immediately note that Milke works for the Fraser Institute and was previously B.C. director of the Canadian Taxpayers’ Federation. But the
book is not just an argument for cutting taxes. It also dismantles persistent myths that income taxes are illegal, and launches a broadside on what Milke calls “Canada’s corporate welfare carnival.” Many people will be able to identify some top names in the government subsidy Tom game: Bombardier, FLETCHER General Motors, even poor old Rolls Royce Canada. Some will also be well aware that our supposedly tight-fisted Conservative federal government has continued to pour out “regional development” and other funds to every part of the country. But I did not know that Industry Canada grants were handed out to pizza parlours (including the
remote pizza-starved village of Kamloops), or to help open gas stations or convenience stores in Kelowna, Vernon and Chilliwack. Milke makes a useful point for B.C. about royalty rates for timber, natural gas and other resources. They are resource rents, and if they are too high the tenants will move out. Reducing them isn’t a subsidy, especially if it leads to big revenue gains as B.C.’s unconventional shale gas incentives have done. On the Occupy movement: The infamous “one per cent,” who in Canada earn $250,000 a year or more, earned 10 per cent of all income and paid 20 per cent of all taxes in 2010. The bottom 73 per cent of tax filers paid just 17 per cent of all taxes. About a third paid no tax at all. On Idle No More: When Attawapiskat Chief Teresa Spence played to the Ottawa media with

The Chilliwack
Progress
her soup strike, former Liberal leader Bob Rae suggested a nearby diamond mine should share more revenue. Milke omits the substantial support and employment that mine provides, and glosses over the misguided blockades that disrupted that and other job-creating enterprises. But he does detail the disastrous effects of passive resource wealth bestowed on impoverished aboriginal communities, and contrasts it with the success stories of reserves that build their own enterprises through hard work. On public sector pensions: Milke notes that historically, public employees traded higher wages for better benefits and job security. Now their wages are generally higher, and taxpayers have to cover their personal pension contributions (as a portion of those wages) as well as the employer contributions, plus the “defined
benefit” payout, which has to be subsidized far beyond what the pension fund can support. On the debt-financed welfare state, there are memorable observations, like this one: “For the record, the generous Quebec welfare state and its ostensibly more progressive model are paid for in part with the taxes of other Canadians; Quebec is merely the North American equivalent of Greece.” The recent B.C. political crisis over adoption of the harmonized sales tax showed that there is too much emotion and too little knowledge about how taxes work. This book is a step towards addressing that. Tom Fletcher is legislature reporter and columnist for Black Press and BCLocalNews.com Twitter:@tomfletcherbc E-mail: tfletcher@blackpress.ca

Commuter rail is better than bus There is no argument that our two communities badly need connecting public transit. The count of 27,200 daily trips is a bit shocking to read. Buses are a great short term solution but very costly compared to another solution that’s ready to be developed right now. I’m talking about the unused passenger designated rail line that runs right into the very heart of both communities, crossing major roads and local transit lines, as well as going through Yarrow and nearby Greendale. That’s right, we have designated passenger rail ready to go between Abby and the Wack. You drive over those rails every day on Vedder and Evans Road.
All thats needed is development of passenger stations and parking, and a few road crossing upgrades, and purchase of the train(s). It’s been proven that (at grade, not Skytrain) light rail is the most cost effective transit system in the world that can pay for itself over time! (www.railforthevalley.com) Yes the initial first time cost for this will be very expensive. But compared to buses, light rail lasts for many decades with much lower long term upkeep and operating costs. Trains can also run in all kinds of weather including snow and when the highway is blocked. Electric light rail systems aren’t held hostage by fuel
costs, and they’re also great for our environment. One train can move many people with one driver, and trains almost always run on time! There are many benefits to developing the rail line between our two communities. I haven’t even touched on the health issues, universal access, and economic growth benefits to local small businesses that surrounds rail stations. Why our councillors are not seriously considering light rail is a mystery. Light rail should be tabled as the best way to building a sophisticated and permanent solution to our congested and dangerous highway! Robbin Yager,

Washington DC 9 days,
‘We all have something to give’ As I sat listening to some soft soothing music my mind reflected back on the weekend’s activities, my eyes welled up with tears. There I was, this past Saturday, walking out of the clothing closet at Ruth & Naomi’s empty handed, not being able to provide the homeless with socks or coats as they left the shelter at 6:45 a.m.; I felt helpless as they exited to face the rain and the
cold. My logic said to me you’re only one small person, you can’t make a difference! My heart on the other hand spoke volumes; you can and will make a difference. Your voice will be heard by many. Chilliwack, let’s open the eyes of our hearts, let’s open our arms to the real problems we face in this community; poverty, homelessness, and addiction.
It’s not our place to judge, but indeed to help our fellow citizens. As a former homeless recovered addict I am proof that kindness, and the backing of this community can make a miracle happen in the lives of people that want to change. We all have something to give. If every single person in this community gave just one dollar, one jacket, one hoodie, one pair of socks, or one blan-
ket, could you imagine the impact this would have. This act of generosity would show people that we don’t just flap our gums, but in fact we walk the talk. Will you open the eyes of your heart? Will you help me help those people not walk out of our shelter empty handed next time they ask? Please allow my one small voice to be heard. Tracey Chamberlain
Quiz Night brightens the night Remember the foggy October 25th? It was grey when in late afternoon the volunteers of The Friends of the Library entered the building to set up for Quiz Night. Everyone worked hard to get ready in time for that very special evening! Special it was! Under the guidance of our emcee Community Librarian Smitty Miller the participants got in the spirit of “it’s only a game”! Everyone searched their trivia knowledge
to remember authors, spelling, animals, famous twins, singers – and we did sing too. The competition for the “Smarty Pants Awards” was friendly in a cut-throat way. Each of you left with a book, some lucky ones had a gift basket under their arm, all had a smile. The Friends also have a big smile as Quiz Night generated over $2,300. It will be returned to the community through our libraries.
Did you look up at the sky as you went out? It was clear!!!! WE did that because nothing could stay gloomy under the cheerful and warm atmosphere that we generated. To each participant, to the merchants who donated to fill gift baskets, to my super-duper volunteers: “Thank You”. Claire Bouchard. President Friends of the Library

Are your tires ready for winter roads? Tom Fletcher Black Press Some “all season” tires are good enough for winter roads in B.C., but not all of them. That’s one reason why Transportation Minister Todd Stone has added the topic of tires to a provincial review of highway safety that includes speed limits. “It’s been almost 40 years since the current definition of a winter tire was actually changed, and tire technology has advanced dramatically, particularly over the last five to 10 years,” Stone said Tuesday. With the popularity of all-season tires and all-wheel-drive vehicles, Stone said there is some confusion about what is acceptable for requirements that took effect
Oct. 1 on routes that have winter conditions. Those routes have signs advising drivers to use winter tires or carry chains, and police may turn drivers away if they are not properly equipped. True winter tires have a symbol of a mountain and snowflake on the sidewall. All-season tires with the “M+S” mark to indicate traction in mud and snow are also permissible, but all tires must have a minimum tread depth of 3.5 mm. A quick test can be done using a dime. Point Her Majesty’s head downward and insert the dime in the tire tread. If the top of the head remains visible, the tire is too worn to qualify for winter conditions. Drivers have a choice of investing in
new tires or buying a set of chains. The transportation ministry has a website at www.th.gov.bc.ca/ SeasonalDriving/win-
ter_chains.html that includes maps of routes affected by winter restrictions, and tips on how to use tire chains.

It’s a matter of taste. Chilliwack Healthier Community Stewardship Council (HCSC) needs some help of a design nature, and is reaching out to members of the community. The council is in the midst of choosing a brand-new logo, as it moves forward to improve Chilliwack and the health of all its residents. Last month the council shortlisted two finalists in a contest that challenged local graphic designers to create a fitting logo. HCSC members voted Oct. 22 to choose between the two, but it was too close to call. So the council is asking residents to pitch in and cast their votes to help decide which image will represent the HCSC and its initiatives in the months and years ahead. Vote at http://www.chilliwack.com/main/page. cfm?id=2353 through Friday, Nov. 8, with the winning logo announced later in the month. Does your great room, kitchen or outdoor living area need a makeover? Describe what you would do… get votes & WIN!

Byelection
Dan Coulter
Ben Besler
Corey Neyrinck
Rob Stelmaschuk
Karen Jarvis:
Trustee hopefuls discuss the ‘key issue’ facing district Katie Bartel The Progress Six candidates, five different views. The Chilliwack Progress posed one question to all candidates running in the Nov. 30 school trustee byelection, and received five responses. The question: What is the key issue facing Chilliwack school district in the coming year? The answers: Dan Coulter: Completion rates for secondary schools in Chilliwack are roughly 72 per cent – a full ten points lower than the provincial average. That means over one quarter of Chilliwack high school students don’t finish their schooling and receive their
diploma. Two years ago, completion rates for aboriginal students was 45 per cent. That’s just unacceptable. Chilliwack needs to build programs that equip all students to succeed in the workforce and in life. Expanding pre-apprenticeship programs that lead to real credentials in trades that students want to learn will help keep students engaged throughout their studies, and give them a leg up once they graduate. Leaving behind 25 per cent of all of Chilliwack’s students and over 50 per cent of all aboriginal students is a serious failure of leadership. Ben Besler: I believe the key issue facing the school district this year, is balancing the budget. By law, the school board must balance the budget despite a few
unexpected strains this year. As a small business owner, I understand the need to keep a high quality of service within budgetary constraints. If we can encourage an efficient and positive approach to service delivery, we can increase effectiveness in helping our children reach their greatest potential. Rob Stelmaschuk: Have funds available to cover any pay increases for teachers and school employees. Find out how much budgeting is available provincially and locally. Corey Neyrinck: The fact the board can’t get along. Spending $25,000 on a consultant to pretty much tell them how to get along. To me, that’s the biggest issue they’re going to be going through
for this next year. Are they actually going to be following up with the suggestions that were given by that consultant? I’ve never actually seen what he said, so I don’t know what the accountability is for the board on that giant chunk of money that they spent. If I get elected, I’d be the youngest trustee on that board. I’d bring a younger perspective, a younger voice to the table. Karen Jarvis: With a 2010-2015 Strategic Plan in place and a three year District Achievement Contract set until 2014, we need to ensure that we are following the plan and the contract. If we aren’t, then I would say that would be a key issue in the district. According to the Strategic Plan we are to aim for every student
to be prepared for opportunities beyond graduation. Our motto is - Partners in Learning and our beliefs are that student literacy, academic achievement and social development are fundamental to everything we do. We also believe in a safe caring equitable, accountable and collaborative learning and working environment. The working and learning environment should be that way for everybody. Communicate with the partner groups and work on the goals set before us. Relationship building is important for success of the larger group. I must listen to the issues at hand and then through collaboration work on the areas of the Strategic Plan and the District Achievement Contract that need improvement. The plans are in place, we need to follow them .

Progress Jennifer
Feinberg
Don’t miss this classic comedy flight
Romantic appreciation for Nature, Life and Love Jennifer Feinberg The Progress The Saturday night concert will take the audience on a musical voyage of discovery. Chilliwack Metropolitan Orchestra presents Nature, Life and Love on Nov. 2 at the Chilliwack Cultural Centre, with revealing narration by Maestro Johan Louwersheimer. Many years ago when he was studying for his doctorate, Maestro Louwersheimer decided to create the Discovery Concert series in which he would offer lively, narrative commentaries on the various composers in between songs. The idea was to reconnect the audience of all ages with intricate and lovely classical music — and it worked. “The idea here is to offer some
ideas about the composers to mull over as they listen to the music,” he said. “I always wanted to explore that discovery idea here.” The Nov. 2 concert will present music by Brahms, Schumann and in the second half, three overtures by Dvorak. To the audience’s ear, the Maestro’s symphonic selections may sound very different from one another. “But they are actually very connected,” he says. “You will see the audience learning a little about the interplay of the music, as well as the influence the composers had on each other, and the appreciation they had for one another.” Back in the day, Schumann recognized Brahms’ talent and willingly assisted the young composer, who in turn later recipro-
cated for Dvorak. So there was some friendly, mutual appreciation, as well as some competition going on. An interesting tidbit about Dvorak, and his three Cycle of Overtures, is that the overtures, as listed in the program of very first performance, were called Nature, Life and Love, and that is why this CMO concert is so named. Principal cellist with the CMO, Benjamin Louwersheimer will be once again be the featured soloist for the Schumann Cello Concerto Op 129 in A Minor. “Once you’ve heard it, you become aware of its beauty and eventually fall in love with it.” It’s a little understood concerto, but he says the opening movement is very lush, rich and thought-provoking. “It’s like some food or fine

art, you grow to appreciate them over time. Serious art is always like that.” It breaks away from typical composition in that there is no standard break in the middle section, he says. “That’s why I call this approach to music one of discovery. We’re trying to create an awareness and a love.” Last year when the CMO put on a Viennese themed concert, the Maestro offered some choice details through narration. “The feedback was really positive,” he says. “That’s what got me thinking.” Chilliwack Metropolitan Orchestra Nature, Life and Love on Nov. 2, 7:30 p.m. at the Chilliwack Cultural Centre, Tickets $25/$15 at box office, or call 604-391-SHOW (7469)

Fasten your seat belts for a skyhigh comedy when the Chilliwack Arts & Cultural Centre Society presents the Arts Club’s production of Boeing, Boeing on Tuesday, November 5. Taking flight in the main theatre at The Cultural Centre, this frothy farce will leave you aching from laughter. A perfect addition to the Theatre Series at The Centre, Boeing Boeing tells the story of Bernard, a successful architect in the swinging 60s who is even more successful with the ladies. In fact, he juggles the hearts of three airline hostesses who jet in and out of his groovy bachelor pad in Paris: Gloria, Gabriella, and Gretchen—also known as “America,” “Italy,” and “Germany”. But when Boeing introduces a swifter jet, Bernard’s precise romantic timetable goes hysterically off course and turbulence looms on the horizon. Written in 1960 by French playwright March Camoletti, Boeing Boeing is listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as the planet’s most performed French play. In 2008, the Broadway revival won two Tony Awards; Best Revival of a Play and Best Leading Actor. “The simple answer is that the structure of this farce puts the characters in comic situations that remain ludicrously funny today,” says director David Mackay. “For all our incredible social and technological advancements made over the past 50 years, a good farce can exemplify that quality in human nature that for every step forward there’s a banana peel to take us two steps back.” Boeing, Boeing on Tuesday, November 5 at the centre.

Rounding up and riding the RAM range 2014 RAM Roundup The full-size truck market is big business for automakers and a big deal for the businesses and people who depend on them. For almost five decades the Ford F-150 has been the best selling truck, with little chance they will lose that crown in the near future. What has been happening, over the last few years, is a strong shift from General Motors to RAM in terms of establishing the second best selling truck brand. The rise in RAM popularity can be traced back to a few key changes over the last several years, from muscular styling to class-leading interiors, a refined ride, plus engine and
transmission advancements. While GM was selling the same trucks year after year, RAM moved forward and has been rewarded handsomely. GM too has recently released all-new Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra trucks but the initial sales response has been rather lacklustre. I drove the 2014 RAM model range recently, on a beautiful fall day, just outside of Toronto. The “RAM Roundup” was a great opportunity to get my hands on these new trucks well before they arrive at BC dealerships. Looks A big part of the RAM brand success has been built on the sturdy

Ross Bentley coaching upcoming young US racer Colin Braun.
I keep hearing TV F1 commentary teams talking about the perfect race in relation to the now four-time world champion Sebastian Vettel. As I watched the German driver for Infiniti-Red Bull race team take the checkered flag in India on Sunday, the repeated reference to his perfect race reminded me of another open-wheel racer. Back in the early 1990s, Vancouver Indy racer Ross Bentley strived for what he called the ‘Perfect Drive’, not on the track but on the roads of B.C. Ross, now coaching race drivers and street drivers in Washington state, always told me that he found the racetrack a safer place to drive. On the track he pretty much knew what other drivers were going to do, whereas drivers on the street were very unpredictable. And I was reminded of that the other morning when a young driver whizzed by me in the curb lane, then cut in front and crossed two more lanes to turn left at an intersection just a block ahead. Of course, he didn’t signal when he got there either! Ross devised a little game that he played every day while travelling to and from work across town. The Perfect Drive Concept was designed to help drivers concentrate and I can’t help it would a great game for us all to play some 20 years on from when he first outlined the idea to me. “The idea is to drive smoothly at a constant speed with minimal braking,� explains Ross, who tells me he still tries to achieve the Perfect Drive daily.
starting at
“To do so, you must anticipate light changes and ease off when you approach a stale green. You have to slow in such a way that if your passengers had their eyes closed they wouldn’t be aware of the exact point you stopped.� Keeping a healthy distance between your car and the one you are following is key. Others do cut into the space but they disappear as fast as they arrive. And even if you ease off to open it up the gap again, Ross figured if even 10 cars did that to you and stayed during the average trip you might lose a minute in travel time. “The Perfect Drive can be ruined by others so I try to figure out what crazy things they might do and adjust accordingly. If I have to brake jerkily in anticipation of the other driver’s move, I don’t deduct any points!� However, if you hold up traffic or disrupt the flow then you deduct points. If you can let somebody in smoothly or provide an opportunity for somebody else to turn then you’re assisting the flow so he figured that was worth a few bonus points.� “The Perfect Drive can be different for everybody and you can work out your own scoring technique. I keep it simple and figure if I drop four points then that was nowhere near the Perfect Drive. I love his final comment: “Oh, and if you drop a point halfway through, you don’t give up and drive the rest of the way like a jerk.� Give it a try, it’s fun.

RAM is rugged for work and luxurious for play continued from page 17
(Ford is looking dated but look for an all-new F-150 in 2015). The centre console can be equipped with an 8.3-inch Uconnect communications and entertainment screen. In addition, there is a large 7-inch screen behind the steering wheel for fully customizable instant information readouts. The dash and seats can be trimmed in leather typically found in luxury cars not long ago. What many RAM buyers might find different is the rotary dial on the dash that changes the 8-speed automatic transmission, 6-speed automatics still get the centre console shifter. This is something that started recently in high-end cars like Jaguar and Range Rover but is now found in RAM. It takes about a day to adjust to the new shift position but after a while the driver forgets. Drive The biggest change for 2014 includes the first diesel engine found in a light duty 1500 pickup truck. This is an Italian designed engine that has been used extensively in Europe in Jeep products like the Grand Cherokee. With 420 lb.-ft. or torque, this new “EcoDiesel� has the same output as Ford’s Ecoboost but not the same towing capacity. Rated at 9200 lbs. this truck will be perfect for buyers
Look for the new EcoDiesel RAMs arriving in January of 2014. who want impressive fuel economy and good towing capacity; a balance of usability and thriftiness. This engine has not been rated yet for fuel economy but thanks to a standard 8-speed automatic transmission; this new EcoDiesel is going to get better numbers than the already classleading gasoline V6 RAM. Look for the new EcoDiesel RAMs arriving in January of 2014. On the heavy duty side there is also an all-new engine in the form of a 6.4L Hemi V8. The old 5.7L was not a perfect match for gasoline truck buyers but RAM hopes this 429 lb.-ft. engine will attract more buyers. Verdict As competitive as the car business is, the truck side is nuclear. Truck buyers take their trucks very seriously and the people building them do too. It takes
ZACK SPENCER
dynamite to get a loyal truck owner to change brands but RAM has done a good job of blasting the competition. Most of this success has been thanks to constant improvements instead of waiting years to update their rigs. With a new diesel engine in the 1500 to an all-new gasoline engine in the heavyduty trucks, matched to sophisticated transmissions, improved suspensions and cabins, it is no wonder why RAM is on an upward swing. The Lowdown Power: 3.6L V6, 3.0L V6 turbo diesel, 5.7L V8. 6.4L V8 and 6.7L diesel Price range: $19,995-$36,495 base prices. The diesel option adds around $4,500 zack.spencer@ddrivewayBC.ca

alloy wheels, electronic stability control, traction control, rear disc brakes and a strut tower brace. It was also the only version with a 5-speed automatic option. On the inside, this Corolla is roomier than the previous generation, with more shoulder room, legroom and trunk storage space. A tilt/ telescoping steering column was standard on all trim levels and it came with two glove boxes, as seemingly past owners had complained about a lack of cabin storage space. Almost all Corolla models
Most Corolla models come with a 1.8-litre (132-horsepower) engine and the base versions came with a smooth-shifting five-speed manual with a light, easy to operate clutch. A four speed automatic was the optional transmission and fuel economy is excellent, with a 7.5/5.6 L/100 km city/ highway rating. The sporty Corolla XRS (originally $21,925) offered a bigger engine, better brakes and tires plus other stuff. Powered by a 2.4-litre (158-horsepower) engine it came with 17-inch tires on

and consumer confidence in this compact car is reflected in used prices. Ironically, from a used car buyer perspective, it may also be its biggest drawback ... good luck with finding a good used Toyota Corolla at a bargain price. The 2009 Corolla came in CE, S, LE and XRS trim levels. The highline Corolla LE (originally $21,495) added power windows and locks, climate control air conditioning, a 4-speed automatic transmission, a wood-grain interior trim package, a push-button keyless start system and more.

More than 30 million Corollas had already been produced when an all-new a tenth-generation 2009 Toyota Corolla hit the streets with a new body and chassis, increased interior space, more power and a revised suspension system. It isn’t about what a Corolla does, it’s about what a Corolla doesn’t do – stop working. In fact, Corolla could be a substitute for the word ‘durable’ in the dictionary. While the competition has certainly made great strides to improved product quality, Corolla is still the benchmark

What women want when shopping for a vehicle vehicle sparkling on your driveway. In fact, you can’t really avoid it unless you’re buying through a private sale. There’s still a stigma associ-
case, and with designs of vehicles these days. Comfort in the car buying process: The dealership experience plays a huge role in having that brand new
ated with car salespeople. Some say that as a woman, walking into a dealership has an automatic disadvantage. That’s changing. Most dealerships have female
sales staff on the floor in case you’re more comfortable in that environment. No matter how good the product, if there’s discomfort or pressure in the buying
process, can sour the sale. If that’s the case, there are always other options. The product is the same regardless of where you buy it from, it’s really the human
element that can make or break the deal. Though, the women I worked with all had wonderful experiences. alexandra.straub@drivewaybc.ca

Women are a huge driving force (pardon the pun) in the car-buying world. Studies show that around 60 per cent of new vehicles purchases are made by women. While many hubbies would love a hot, little sports car, perhaps it’s not always ideal for, you know, life. Buying a vehicle is considered to be the second biggest purchase someone can make. The first is your home. So when someone says it’s not a big deal – it is. Not only is it a long-term decision, but a financially significant one as well. Leading up to the 2013 Vancouver International Auto Show, I had the privilege of assisting six women with their new car purchases. They gave me a budget and a list of “needs and wants” and then we went to the drawing board. Here are a few of the top things I observed. Price: Budgets are very important to everyone. And sticking to it was even more important for the women I worked with. Yes, there are always temptations to get a few extra bells and whistles, and if you can work it into your bottom line, that’s ideal. But the navigation package or premium sound system wasn’t a must-have. Warranties: Additional warranties were paramount. For those not leasing and swapping vehicles every four years, having the extra bit of protection from wear and tear was something they wanted to accommodate in their budgets, especially those who drive frequently. Safety: Looks are great but it is the safety features women are after. There’s a lot of technology out there. Sometimes it is even overwhelming. But things like airbags, ABS, traction control and even backup cameras (for the larger vehicles) were high on the priority list. Interior capacity/hatch: Cargo volume is subjective in the sense where not everyone needs as much as the other. But when it was in the top three of “needs” sometimes thinking outside of the box was necessary. Sacrificing looks for functionality, again, is something that often happens. That said, it is not always the

Thermafrax™ QUESTION: What is Thermafrax™?
ANSWER: Thermafrax™ treatment is a revolutionary combination of 2 gold standard treatments; Thermage™ and Fraxel™. This treatment produces skin tightening plus skin rejuvenating. Doing them together creates even better results! These are non- surgical treatments and they help correct the most significant signs of aging: sagging skin, wrinkles, skin texture and pigmentation. The Thermage™ portion of the treatment uses radio frequency to safely heat the deeper layers of our skin which in turn stimulates existing collagen. The Fraxel™ laser uses pinpoint laser beams that penetrate beneath the skins surface to eliminate damaged skin cells and stimulates the body’s natural healing process. – Dr. Marianna Snyman

Set your fitness goals for success
Did you move into the area recently?
time since you were in college. It might mean taking the first step and calling a fitness coach to get help. It might mean increasing the intensity of your current routine, or changing it up altogether. If you are comfortable, you are no longer progressing. 3. Tanja Your body is SHAW not different. Many people carry the belief that something will not work for them because their body, or circumstance is different. Sometimes this belief system is affirmed by years of yo-yo dieting and the weight loss/ weight gain cycle. Sure, a 20 year old male looking to increase muscle mass will need a slightly different program than a 45 year old woman wanting to lose 10 pounds, or a 95 year old man wanting to maintain his mobility, but the
same principles apply. Everybody needs to do resistance training, mobility training, and some sort of workout that elevates heart rate. Everybody needs to have variety in their program to keep progressing and to prevent boredom. Everybody needs to follow basic principles of nutrition to get results. Everybody needs to progress their workouts to keep getting results. Everybody needs a support system to achieve long-term success. 4. Know what you want. Set a goal. Usually the motivation for behaviour change starts as a result-based goal, such as ‘I want to lose 10 pounds’. While these result, or outcome goals are the driving forces to seek change, it’s the action-based goals that will get you there. There are a few reasons why you should focus on action goals versus result goals. Action-goals allow you to be 100% in control your success. With a goal such as “I will lose
10 pounds by October 1�, your result is largely out of your control. You don’t know exactly how your body will respond to an exercise or eating plan. Perhaps you do all the right things, but you only lose three pounds. Because you didn’t reach your goal, you may be discouraged and give up, despite making many healthy choices and making progress. In contrast, an action focus, such as “I will go for a walk after supper three evenings a week� or “I will eat my dinner mindfully each day and track my food in my online food journal everyday�, allows you to experience success regardless of the number on the scale or the tape measure. 5. Know WHY you want what you want. Why do you want to workout? Why do you want to lose weight? Dennis Waitley wrote ‘if the why is strong enough, the how is not a problem’. Write down a list of 10-20 reasons (or more) why you want to achieve your goal. How will you feel when you

I thrive on growth, in both my personal life, and as a fitness professional. Nearly everything I learn in my growth as a fitness professional can be applied to any growth or change. Whether growth is as a person, in business or in your heath and fitness journey, the same ‘success principles’ apply. Today I’m going to share these success principles with you, and show you how it can be applied to your success in fitness. 1. Personal Responsibility This is a big one. You could blame your genetics, your family, your work, your commute, or your dog for the way you are, but this will accomplish nothing. Most people have barriers to fitting in exercise and eating right- even the slim and fit people. Very few are gifted with rapid fast metabolisms allowing them to eat whatever they want. If you want to change, you must take responsibility of YOU. Every possible problem or barrier has a solution- YOU decide if you’re going to find that solution. 2. Have courage to step outside your comfort zone If you want to change, you need to do something different than what you are doing right now, and sometimes that can be scary. Sometimes that can mean getting out and starting an exercise program for the first

According to many scholars, All Hallows’ Eve is a Christianized feast initially influenced by Celtic harvest, and festivals of the dead with possible pagan roots, particularly the Gaelic Samhain. Other scholars maintain that it originated independently of Samhain and has solely Christian roots.
Don’t let the fall season keep As the fall toys with us this October it is a perfect time to play in the outdoors. Two weeks ago I thought we had seen the last of T-shirt weather as the snowline dropped below Elk Mountain, and I was unpacking my ski gear in anticipation for snowfall in the mountains.
That program seems to have been put on hold for the time being, however I am not complaining that we have been given another couple weeks of beautiful sunshine to help tide us over as the days continue to shorten. Many people find that the fall season sucks their
desire to get into the outdoors as the limbo between summer and winter sets in. I believe quite the opposite, and it would seem that I am not alone in this sentiment as a number of avid outdoor lovers are still plying their craft in our grand backyard. Cultus Lake is still
Jack-o-Lantern Development of artifacts and symbols associated with Halloween formed over time. Jack-o-lanterns are traditionally carried by guisers on All Hallows’ Eve in order to frighten evil spirits. There is a popular Irish Christian folktale associated with the jack-o’lantern, which in lore, is said to represent a “soul who has been denied entry into both heaven and hell.”

you trapped inside INSIDE from page 30 seasons in the same day; as one gains elevation they can watch the seasonal calendar shift before their eyes. A tip I would like to pass on, which may seem obvious to some and novel to others, is that often times it is possible to climb above the clouds! On a dreary fall day when the rain seem to simply seep from the air, coming from no particular direction but rather from all sides at once, there is still hope for sunshine. On many of these days, of which Chilliwack is known to have a few, that band of clouds that can so easily
changes our moods, is not more than a few hundred meters thick. This means that when everyone else is getting depressed on the valley floor you can be getting an October tan in the alpine! This is even more exciting when the temperatures shift a few degrees colder and that rain is now turning to snow half way up the mountainsides. Remember to strap on your skis or snowshoes and head to the mountains and find some sunshine and powder above the clouds; for I attest there is no more suiting of a remedy for the rainy day blues than a bluebird day
above the clouds on a blanket of pristine coastal snow. (A free avalanche awareness seminar is being hosted at Sardis Secondary by Mt.

Bantams bomb Courtney Raiders
The Chilliwack bantam Giants won a laugher of a game last weekend, demolishing the Courtney Raiders 51-6. The minor football game was played in Courtney, and the Giants had their offence rolling from the opening snap. Trey Isaac was the playmaker, catching two touchdown tosses, running in another and booting a field goal. Nathan Jennings ran the ball well and scored his first TD. Cam Lampart, Warren Rogers and Kayl Graydon also found the endzone, with Graydon scoring on an 85 yard kickoff return. Quarterback Gabe Olivares directed the
offence. “We definitely spread the ball around, hoping to give everyone an opportunity to score,” said Chilliwack head coach Mike Derksen. Defensively, the Giants allowed just six Raider first downs. Linebackers Karan Deol and AJ Sagrott helped plug up the middle, with help from linemen Chris Derksen and Nat Oenema. The bantams have now won four straight games, evening their record at 4-4. They have a playoff berth wrapped up as they head into a Sunday road game versus the Victoria Spartans. ● The peewee Red Giants faced the unbeaten Mission 9ers in a playoff preview. Costly turnovers put the Giants into an early 32-0 hole. After a late second quarter timeout, the Chilliwack boys finally began to execute their game plan. Two long passes set
the table for speedster Coleman Hughes, who lugged the ball on a 50 yard run to the Mission one yard line. With just enough time for one play before the half, fullback Logan Buchwitz drove the ball across the line for a TD. It was the first points allowed by Mission all season. Chilliwack held strong in the second half, possibly sowing seeds of doubt as they look ahead to a rematch in two weeks time. Strong defensive performances were turned in by Michael Hopwood, Brycen Hines, Braedon and Jacob Dyck. Jacob Beadreau and Jacob Brown were offensive standouts. ● The atom White Giants beat the Mission 9ers 37-16 in an impressive road effort. Kai Manning, Jake Sondervang and Dayton Roger led a stout Chilliwack D. Chilliwack’s offense
excelled with touchdowns by Jackson Visser, Austin Wegener, Vincent Branauer and Trent Cote. Kole Muth added a convert run. Chilliwack plays its final regular season game against Meadow Ridge Blue this weekend. ● The atom Blue Giants faced unbeaten Meadow Ridge Gold, dropping a 20-0 decision. Running back DJ Stephens was a bright spot on offence, following the blocking of Sebastian Gonzalez and Matthew Phillips. Cohen KercherForeman did a great job at center. On defence, cornerbacks Nathan Pickles, Kenyan Reid and Jared Rahnborn shut down the Gold passing game. Linebackers Raiden Mastin and Theo Smith made tackles all over the field. The Blue Giants play their final regular season game Saturday morning, hosting the Mission 9ers at Townsend Park.

Two wins in three games last weekend for the Chilliwack Chiefs, but more importantly the team played three of their best games of the season. Strangely their best game of the weekend may have been Friday’s 2-1 loss to Cowichan. But they were nearly as good in wins over Surrey (3-2) and Coquitlam (4-3) as well. w ell. The loss came on Friday and I wondered what effect losing that game would have on the team. They played extremely well in that game and to lose it had to be another blow to their confidence. Fortunately they didn’t have much time to dwell on it and the next night they came out and it was obvious from the get go that they had shaken off the previous night’s loss. You can see signs of this team taking steps in the right direction. Head coach Harvey Smyl has changed up the line combinations quite a bit through the first six weeks of the season but the line of Austin Plevy, Blake Gober and Zach Diamantoni is playing like a legitimate first line now. I think they have a chance to stick together for a while. I also really liked the play of Mathieu Tibbet and Andrew A ndrew Silard last weekend. Both are big and can skate well w ell and they used those attributes to their advantage both in the offensive zone and defensively, especially on the penalty kill. As bad as things looked a few weeks ago for this team, prior to last night’s game against Langley they were
four points out of a playofff spot with two games in hand. Another busy three games in three days for the Chiefs this weekend, including a pairr of home games. Friday night the Merrittt Centennials are here forr Western Night, brought to you by Country West Supply. I expect to see you all in yourr best Western garb. The Cents are always a hard working team and I reckon the Cents will be hankerin’ for a win. Keep an eye out for No. 16 Gavin Gould. He’s the younger brotherr of former Chief Malcolm. He’s in his first BCHL season and is off to a great start with six goals and seven assists in 19 games. Saturday the Chiefs are in Merritt. If their arena isn’t the toughest to play in, it’s rightt at the top. It’s roughly the size of a shoebox and really y gives the Cents an advantage over teams not used to playing in such tight confines. The Chiefs wrap up the weekend with a home game on Sunday versus the Alberni Valley Bulldogs. The Dogs have really y struggled this season winning just three of their first 19 games. They enter the weekend looking for their firstt road win of the season. They’ll get two cracks att that before Sunday, visiting Coquitlam Friday and Surreyy Saturday. As is the case with all Sunday home games, fans are welcome to join the Chiefs players on the ice for a skate right after the game. jb@chilliwackchiefs.net
BCHL skaters make their mark Ten BCHL skaters are among the 22 junior A stars selected to represent Canada West at the World Junior A Challenge. The final roster was announced Tuesday.

Cascade shooters struggle at Honda Way tournament Dan Kinvig, Black Press Scanning the box score following Saturday’s exhibition game vs. the Brock Badgers, University of the Fraser Valley women’s basketball coach Al Tuchscherer saw a lot of what he termed “ugly stats.” The Cascades shot the ball dreadfully, connecting on just 23 per cent of their attempts from the field, and turned the ball over 24 times. But at the bottom of the stat sheet was a set of numbers which reflected better on UFV: 49-47, the final score of their victory over their St. Catharines, Ont. opponent. “We’re a long, long way from where we need to be,” noted Tuchscherer, whose team has legitimate CIS national championship aspirations this season. “But this was an elite team that’s probably going to be top-five in the country, and to hold them to 47 points and find a way to win, that’s a positive thing.” Sarah Wierks (17 points, 12 rebounds), Aieisha Luyken (10 points) and Kayli Sartori (10 points) led the way for UFV in the Brock game, which marked their second win of the weekend at the Honda Way Classic preseason tourney. They also defeated UBC-Okanagan 72-56 on Friday behind 13 points apiece from Wierks and Sartori. The UFV men faced a pair of PacWest college
squads at the Honda Way event, edging the Capilano Blues 61-57 on Friday behind 15 points from Klaus Figueredo
before falling 84-79 to the Langara Falcons on Saturday despite 20 points from Kevon Parchment.
“We need to learn to finish games as a team,” said Cascades coach Adam Friesen, whose squad led Langara by
10 points heading into the fourth quarter but let it slip away. • The UFV basketball

OBITUARIES
Glasmann Nancy (Rodewalt)
A Community Memorial Service will be held in memory of Rev. Doug Ireland on Saturday, November 2, 2013 11:00 a.m. at Chilliwack United Church, 45835 Spadina Ave., Chilliwack. Refreshments to follow.
With sadness we announce that Peter Mills of Chilliwack, BC, has passed away at the age of 84. He was predeceased by wife Jocelyn (2009), brothers Ken (1985) and David (2005). He is survived by children Richard (Carol), Catherine (Edmund) and Barbara (Michael); grandchildren Steven (Tanya), Nathan, Emma, David, Daniel, Sierra and first great-grandchild Joshua; sisters-in-law Louise (Cliff ) and Joan; many cousins, nephews and nieces in Canada and England. Peter and his MILLS older brothers Ken and David, were born and raised in the village of Uley, in Gloucestershire, England. At the age of 10, his family and childhood were impacted by the hardships of war. When the war ended in 1945, 16-year-old Peter left home to join the Royal Air Force as an apprentice mechanic at RAF Halton. He served 9 years before purchasing early leave to find civilian employment with the Bristol Aeroplane Company. In 1955 he moved to Canada and was hired by Canadian Pacific Airlines at Vancouver International Airport. At this time he also met his first and only girlfriend Jocelyn. Since he found the right girl on the first try, they were wed on April 2, 1957. In 1960 they bought a home and moved from Vancouver to the community of Delta, where they raised their children Richard, Cathy and Barbara. In 1962, Jocelyn contracted the polio virus and nearly died. Despite polio and numerous other health challenges, they continued to embrace life. In 1963, Peter attended night school to obtain his vocational instructor certificate. In September of 1964, he was accepted to teach Aircraft Maintenance with the British Columbia Vocational School in Burnaby (PVI/BCIT). Over the years, some of his contributions included innovative teaching methods, curriculum development, program expansions, aircraft donation campaigns and facility upgrades. He established friendships with many colleagues and former students alike. After 30 years of teaching many hundreds of students, “Chief Instructor, Pete Mills” retired. Within months, he and Jocelyn sold their Delta home and moved to their Chilliwack River vacation property. This was a special time which they shared together, until Jocelyn’s death in 2009. After many years as Jocelyn’s care-giver, Peter’s own health began to decline. His daughter Cathy moved in and took on the duties of care-giver and visitor hostess. As Peter always had a love for England, he invested in numerous trips to visit the family of his roots. He developed an especially close friendship with his nephew Brian, sharing numerous travel adventures in both Canada and Europe, and tech-talk Skype-chats. His signature accessory was a short, HB pencil sticking out of his shirt pocket; he was always ready to sketch a plan or make a note. Peter was always busy, whether with his camera club buds, learning or buying the latest gadget, planning a project, or enjoying the view with family and friends. He had an inventor’s mind, an instructor’s heart, loved children, music, nature, photography and videography. He was a generous man, with a strong sense of duty, compassion and care. We loved him and we miss him. An informal celebration honouring the lives of both Peter and Jocelyn will take place on their anniversary, April 2, 2014. Open house refreshments will start at 1 pm at their Chilliwack home. A portion of the celebration will be outdoors, please dress accordingly. Flowers or gifts gratefully declined in favour of an equivalent donation to the Chilliwack Hospital & Health Care Foundation.

It is with great sadness, we announce the passing of our husband, father, grandfather and great-grandfather, Ralph Norrish. Ralph passed away suddenly on the 23rd of October at Royal Columbian Hospital in New Westminster at the age of 88. Ralph was born August 3rd, 1925 on the family farm in Saskatchewan, the 6th of 8 children. He was born to Jean and Albert “Ernie” Norrish. He moved with his family to Chilliwack in 1934. It would be here that would always be called home. In 1941, Ralph quit school to work at the Vancouver Shipyard building landing barges. He continued to hone his skills by helping to build an airport in Port Hardy as a carpenter’s apprentice. Ralph then joined the Royal Canadian Air Force in 1943, where he trained as an air gunner and was posted to Mon Joli, QC. Shortly after, he was transferred to the Air Force Reserve in 1945. Ralph was an active business man involved in various endeavours throughout his life. He owned and operated Norrish Bros. Construction with his brother, Wes, as well as a building supply business. Other businesses included Central Sand and Gravel in Prince George during the late 1950s. At this time, Ralph was also involved in real estate. When Central Sand and Gravel was sold, the brothers purchased Robertson Bros Ready-Mix. The business became Cascade Tru-Mix, offering ready-mix concrete, masonry supplies and coal. Eventually, property on Tower Road was developed for the business. The original Cascade Tru-Mix site in downtown Chilliwack was redeveloped as commercial property and it still remains in the family. In his spare time, his hobbies included curling, woodworking, travel, and gardening. Ralph always had an avid interest in aviation and trains. Ralph will be remembered for his generosity and thoughtfulness; his love of all things sweet including Freda’s pies and Jennifer’s shortbread; his subtle, witty sense of humour and his persistently optimistic and determined attitude. Ralph was predeceased by his wife Margaret in 1991, as well as his parents and four siblings, Aubrey, Jean, Ruth, and Irene. He will be sadly missed by his three brothers, Wesley, Harold, and Albert, the numerous nieces and nephews, and many family members and friends around the world. Ralph leaves behind his beloved wife of more than 20 years, Freda Atkinson, her children Steven (René), Stuart (Rose), Bryan (Arlene), David (Ingrid) and their families. Ralph is survived by his son, Don, grandson, Richard (Cara), granddaughter Jennifer (Brian) and great-granddaughter Aria. A memorial service will be held at 1 pm on Saturday, November 2nd at Woodlawn Mt. Cheam Funeral Home, 45865 Hocking Ave, Chilliwack, BC. Online condolences may be offered at www.woodlawn-mtcheam.ca.

It is with great sadness that the family of Nancy Glasmann announces her passing on October 16th, 2013 after a short battle with cancer less than two weeks after her 59th birthday. She was born on October 5, 1954 in Edmonton, Alberta the youngest in a family of 3 children to Van and Rose Rodewalt. Nancy had a very unique childhood due to the fact that her father was a rancher who specialized in breeding high quality horses including Thoroughbreds, Arabians and Appaloosas. She and her older siblings Vance and Darcy Lea learned to ride horseback at a very young age and spent many happy days at “the ranch.” She graduated from Victoria Composite High School, Edmonton in 1972. The following year she attended the Museum Art School in Portland to study Graphic Design. Nancy married in 1977 and was blessed by the birth of her son Kelly a year later. A native of Alberta, she moved to Chilliwack in 1980 in order to be closer to her parents who had retired here. After the death of her mother in 1992 she resolved to take care of her beloved father, which she did lovingly until his death in 2012. She was a loving mother and grand-mother, a very skilled artist who loved to sketch and paint in oils and watercolors. She loved animals, especially cats and horses. Nancy went back to college at the age of 50 to become a Community Support Worker and graduated with honors in 2007. She enjoyed her career as a caregiver, until July 2013 when health problems forced her into early retirement. She is pre-deceased by her father, Van, and her mother, Rose. She very much enjoyed her family and is survived by sister Darcy (Jim), brother Vance (Susan), ex-husband Peter, son Kelly (Karina) and grand-daughter Kezaira. No service by deceased’s request.

They were married at St. Mary’s Church in Chilliwack and soon after started a family in the area. Yvonne was a nurse in the Chilliwack hospital for many years. John and Yvonne spent the majority of their lives in Agassiz where they raised their family and created many cherishable memories. Yvonne was predeceased by her husband of 49 years, John Joe. She leaves behind her children Sue (Mark), Bernadette (Frank), Christine (Mike), Steve (Lori), Michael (Tracey), Pauline (Bill), as well as numerous grandchildren, great grandchildren and her beloved dog Tara.
