SERVING MISSION SINCE 1908

Mission’s Marion Sharpe was dedicated to the community and was involved with numerous organizations. She passed away on Jan. 15 just shy of her 98th birthday.

‘She helped educate a community’ Family and friends celebrated nearly 100 years of Marion Sharpe Alina KONEVSKI MISSION RECORD

Marion Frances Sharpe was always a woman of strong will, even as a teenager. The story goes that the day after she turned 21, when she was legally allowed to get married without anyone’s permission, she left for Vancouver to wed her sweetheart of five years, Paul Sharpe. Marion was a proud Protestant, and when Paul’s mother – a devout Catholic – met the pair on the wedding day and insisted that Marion convert so that the marriage could take place at a Catholic church, Marion stood firm. “Mom didn’t, and she

wouldn’t, and she never did change her religion,” recounts son Steve. “I think they got married, if I remember, in the office in the back of the Catholic church. That was as good as she was going to get.” Marion Sharpe passed away Jan. 15, two days shy of her 98th birthday. Some of the people she affected over her near century of life came out to celebrate her during a service on Wednesday – exactly 77 years to the day after Marion and Paul married. Born Jan. 17, 1916 in Burnaby in the middle of the First World War, the eldest of five children, Marion moved to

Mission in 1920. She graduated from Mission Central school, as five of her six children did years later, and eventually became a librarian at

the local library didn’t have it. Later, through her decades of library service at the Mission public library, Marion selected books for children,

and watched them grow up to borrow books as adults. “She helped educate a community,” said Steve. Although she retired from the library in 1982, Marion continued to lead an active and involved life for another three decades. “She was very proud of her community and her community involvement,” said Steve. Marion was a charter member of the Historical Society, Friends of the Library, Lifetime Learning, Paths and Pathfinders, Hospice Society, Women’s Institute, Hospital Auxiliary, and the Old Age Pensioners. She believed in civic duty and was a regular letter-writer

Two councillors quit political slate Mission councillors Jeff Jewell and Jenny Stevens have resigned from the political slate under which all current councillors and the mayor were elected in 2011. They join Coun. Nelson Tilbury as independent councillors at the district table. Tilbury left the Citizens for Responsible Municipal Government (CRMG) in September 2011.

In a public statement, Jewell said that “recent issues have created considerable controversy and tension” at council. “Unfortunately, some of the major decisions and actions of some members have been incompatible with my personal values, and what I understood to be the values and commitment of CRMG … Stevens said that

recent conflict of interest allegations surrounding Coun. Dave Hensman have somewhat influenced her decision, but “are no more than the final straw. “When I joined the CRMG team, I did so in the belief that I had found a group of individuals who shared principles and values dear to my heart. Sadly, over the past few months, I have

been forced to the conclusion that this is not true of every individual within the group and that I cannot, therefore, go forward to the next election with the CRMG team … “ The Record received the statements just prior to deadline on Thursday.

Committee proposes youth resource centre in Mission Alina KONEVSKI MISSION RECORD

Local homeless youth have few resources in Mission, Barry McLeod told municipal council Jan. 20. They avoid places frequented by homeless adults, instead seeking help at youth centres in other cities. When they don’t find the help they need, they risk ending up in dangerous situations. The Mission Youth Homelessness Committee (MYHC) has been meeting for eight months to find a local solution. McLeod, a committee member, presented the idea to district councillors: open a youth resource centre in Mission. “Our kids are going to other communities to get help with something that maybe we need to be looking at providing ourselves,” he said. Twelve Mission youth stayed at Abbotsford’s Cyrus Centre in the last six months. Another four stayed at Iron Horse Youth Clinic in Maple Ridge last year,

while 17 Mission youth were turned away. Those without a stable home are spending nights camping, couch surfing, in drug houses, flop houses, and anywhere else they can find a place to sleep, according to McLeod. Because youth tend to remain hidden during annual homeless counts, exactly how many youth are on Mission’s streets is unknown. Estimates are anywhere between 12 and 25 people. “It changes all the time. But there are youth 18 and under living on the streets,” said McLeod, who is a youth worker with Mission Youth Unlimited. A 2011 homeless count by the Fraser Valley Regional District found 54 homeless people in Mission, down from 100 in 2008. This winter season, the Haven in the Hollow shelter in Mission is usually full, with 15 adult men and five women staying overnight. Another 10 have been staying on mats when the temperature

dips below zero overnight, as it did this past week. The MYHC surveyed local homeless youth to understand their top five needs. Number one was a place to get cleaned up, where youth could get a shower, because, as McLeod said, “the rest of life doesn’t work very well if you’re dirty.” Second was access to laundry and third was healthy, warm meals. Fourth was non-judgmental adults to talk to. “They actually want that, and that’s good news for youth workers. We are wanting to be there to help them, but they also want that kind of support from people in their community,” said McLeod. Shelter rounded out the list. As a first step, the committee wants to open a resource facility here to provide showers, laundry, meals,

resources, and connections. McLeod noted that the Cyrus Centre started much the same way, first opening as a resource centre before offering beds. Down the line, the committee wants to offer extreme weather emergency shelter spaces, a shortterm shelter and youth housing options. There are various community resources for the homeless

in Mission, such as meals, support groups, and counselling from the Mission Friendship Centre and Hope Central. The latter, for instance, feeds 40–60 people at each of its 12 weekly meals. “But the issue is, a lot of the youth won’t go where the adults are because there’s risk

for them to be hanging around older homeless people,” said McLeod. The committee’s idea for a dedicated youth-centric facility has several member agencies interested, including Mission Community Services, Ministry of Children and Family Development, Mission Friendship Centre, Youth Unlimited, and Fraser House

Society, according to McLeod. Cyrus Centre likes the idea, while various churches have offered support. McLeod and the committee will also eventually need support from district council and staff, as well as the business community and service clubs. Funding will come from grants, donations, gifts in-kind, and fundraisers.

Foundation gives grant to Zajac Ranch

THE JOY OF READING

A $600 grant from Mission Community Foundation will help Zajac Ranch for Children to fund its composting initiative. A Japanese Bokashi composting system has been implemented at the ranch – located on the shores of Stave Lake in northern Mission – which is compact, easy to implement and returns all composted organic material to the ground,

resulting in healthier more nutrient-rich soil, according to a press release. With less organic material going into solid waste bins, fewer loads are taken to the landfill. The Zajac Ranch allows children and young adults with chronic, life-threatening and debilitating conditions to have a summer camp experience.

Mission gymnast Skulstad aims for gold Dan KINVIG ABBOTSFORD NEWS

Tamara Skulstad, pondering the opportunity to participate in the BC Winter Games in her hometown, doesn’t mince words when asked about her goals. “To win,” she says, without missing a beat. Based on her recent results, gymnast Skulstad, 10, has every reason to dream of climbing to the top step of the podium at the Games, which run Feb. 20-23 in Mission. In 2013, won allaround gold in the Level 4 tyro division at the B.C. championships, and followed that up with all-around silver at the Western Canadians.

the Winter Games team, Skulstad won the Level 4 all-around while posting the top scores on all four apparatuses – vault, uneven bars, beam and floor. “As a coach, I don’t like to jinx anything,” said Shallon Heinzig, one of Skulstad’s coaches at Abbotsford’s Twisters Gymnastics Club, assessing her medal chances at the BC Games. “But she won the trials by almost five points, which is kind of crazy. It’s a huge margin, and she won every single event. “She was the youngest athlete at the trial, and she could very well be one of the youngest athletes at the Games.” Skulstad is among a group of eight gymnasts

who train at Twisters who qualified for the Games. Ella Palmer and Brienna Gaspar join her on the girls side, while Kristofer Unipan, Wyatt Lavers, Francois Barnard, Brogan Neufeld and DJ Tarbaj qualified on the boys side. Skulstad and Unipan both hail from Mission, and they’re part of a five-athlete contingent from the Games’ host city. The other three Mission athletes who will be competing are speed skaters Janie Green, Shivani Bahadur and Adam Holtby. All athletes, including those from Mission, are staying at local schools during the Games – an immersive element which Heinzig believes adds to the athletes’

Heinzig noted that for her girls, this will be their taste of a multi-day competition. “It’s very good for our girls, because they’re so young,” she said. “It opens their eyes and gets them excited about what could come in the future, and motivates them to try to move on and get better and better.” The final participant numbers are in for the 2014 BC Winter Games. 1,343 athletes will be in attendance, and there will be an additional 530 coaches, supervisors and officials involved.

Help the most vulnerable

QUESTION OF THE WEEK

Due to the difficulty of tracking homeless, a rough estimate has between 12 and 25 youth living on our streets. This should not be. Abbotsford has the successful Cyrus Centre, which also started as a resource facility for youth, and eventually expanded to offering beds. With any new program comes an associated price tag, but with a longterm financial benefit as well, since the homeless are a significant draw on public health and social services. In his presentation to council, McLeod said municipal, service club and community support will be required in the future if the centre is created. We hope this is something residents can support. While oft said, it still remains true: Children are our future. If we as a district believe this, then having youth living on our streets in unacceptable. If we intervene early enough in a troubled young person’s life, perhaps that will be the turning point to keep them from descending further down a dark path that has so often left people broken and hollow.

Myriad key social issues exist in Mission, as they do in cities across British Columbia, each calling for attention from the public and decision-makers. Helping the homeless is among them. In recent years there have been steps taken in Mission to help out vulnerable citizens. The Haven in the Hollow first-stage facility on Logan Avenue is an excellent initial effort to aid those who have chosen to try to pull themselves out of a downward spiral. Rivendell, the second-stage housing facility which occupies the former Grand Street Lodge, is another step forward in helping people ready to make changes in their lives. But Mission’s homeless people aren’t merely those 19 years and older – many are still teenagers and they face an extra set of challenges. Barry McLeod is a member of the Mission Youth Homelessness Committee. He spoke to District of Mission council recently and broached the idea of opening a youth resource centre here. It’s an idea we believe has considerable merit.

LAST WEEK WE ASKED: Would you support a two-week school spring break? Here’s how you responded:

Tug of war for transportation taxes Tom Fletcher

B.C. Views Premier Christy Clark has set off a storm of protest by imposing a referendum on new Lower Mainland transportation improvements, timed with the province-wide municipal elections on Nov. 15. Even if you don’t live in Metro Vancouver, you’re not immune from this long-running saga. Provincial and federal governments use your tax dollars for the big stuff, including the SkyTrain Canada Line to Vancouver airport and the South Fraser Perimeter Road, a new truck route to port facilities at Tsawwassen. Clark has promised a bridge replacement for the George Massey tunnel under the Fraser River, which may or may not be tolled like the Port Mann bridge. The patchwork of Lower Mainland tolls is a growing political liability for the B.C. Liberal government, and if further tolls are avoided, major works else-

where in the province may be delayed as the budget is eaten up by the big cities. Clark announced the Massey tunnel replacement in a September 2012 speech to the Union of B.C. Municipalities. In the same speech, she also pledged to complete the four-laning of the last 240 km of the Trans-Canada Highway from Kamloops to the Alberta border. That’s one of the most mountainous stretches of highway in Canada, and the province’s cost was estimated at the time to be $650 million over 10 years. Time will tell if that promise is kept. Transportation Minister Todd Stone inherited the mess left behind by former minister Kevin Falcon, who took transit authority away from Metro Vancouver politicians. He appointed a board of experts and set up a toothless “mayors’ council” to rubber-stamp their decisions, after forcing through the Canada Line ahead of a long-promised transit extension to the east. Local politicians wrangled for years over that eastern extension. They finally settled on surface light rail, only to be overruled by the province, which wanted the vastly more expensive SkyTrain. The latest rebuke to the mayors’ council

was when they decided not to proceed with a costly new electronic fare card system. Falcon reversed that one after taking a junket to London and falling in love with their “Oyster card” subway system. All the glitches from

Clark has made it clear there is no going back from a November referendum on new regional transportation financing tools ... TransLink’s new “Compass card” program will be encountered this summer, just before those mayors go to the polls to face voter wrath. Speaking of reversals, Stone is now demanding the mayors come up with their list of priorities for new projects. They are expected to believe their choices won’t be over-

ruled again. Stone correctly notes that Vancouver wants SkyTrain on Broadway, Surrey wants new surface light rail, and other Lower Mainland communities want new road and bridge works. Local governments have a long history of parochial squabbling, getting their pet projects done and then suddenly developing the urge to rein in spending once it’s time to dig deep for their neighbours. Lower Mainland taxpayers are weary and confused by all this reorganizing and in-fighting. Many likely believe that it is their regional government that has imposed the Port Mann bridge tolls, when in fact that is a provincial highway project over which they had no say. Clark has made it clear there is no going back from a November referendum on new regional transportation financing tools, a promise explicit in the B.C. Liberal election platform. She hopes it will increase the dismal voter turnout for local votes. If it does that, it may be worth it. Right now, civic elections are dismal affairs, with voter turnout and awareness of local issues drifting from bad to worse.

YOUR VIEWS Homeless youth need safe environment for recovery After attending a public information meeting Jan. 14, I was compelled by the suggestion of a fellow attendee to take some form of action; hence this letter. Before I do that I want to thank Barry McLeod for the invitation and information he shared with us. After the meeting, I asked myself a few questions and put them to the reader. Did you have a warm

meal last night? Did you have a warm shower before getting into your warm bed? Did you have a warm and friendly chat with a loved one before you fell into slumberland? Did you know that there are children in our community that do not have these simple pleasures or amenities in life? I am blessed with a warm and wonderful life. These vulnerable youth live on our

streets, cold, lonely and hungry. They are often invisible and forgotten – they are homeless. Many have come from broken, abusive homes, either having been forced out or simply ran away too frightened to return. Mission does not currently have an emergency shelter for these vulnerable members of our society. They need a safe, loving environment

for recovery and to learn life skills to enable them a rich

life. They say it takes a community to raise a child.

I look forward to working with other volunteers to make a

difference. Ernestine O’Rourke Mission

Welcome Welcom me to the driver’s seat

Durango is yet another example of what Chrysler is doing right. I enjoyed my entire time with it and so did the rest of the family. Zack Spencer

Question

One bad Durango in a good way The 2014 Dodge Durango test truck was the perfect Christmas treat. This is the perfect kind of vehicle to have when you need to cart around extra kids and family from events like skating parties to Christmas dinners to anything else that needs getting done over the festive season. With three rows of seats and seating for six or seven passengers, the Durango is a large comfortable vehicle for any large family or a family of four that needs to take extra people to soccer or hockey practice. The Durango tester was the top of line Citadel model with a beautiful two-tine interior, large polished wheels and classy looking grille. It was not fitted with winter tires but we had no skiing plans, plus all Durango models come with AWD as standard equipment. Looks I can’t remember the last time a large SUV turned heads but this model had passersby, friends, and family all taking notice. Several neighbours commented on the stylish “racetrack” rear light bar that has migrated from the Dodge Dart and Charger sedans to this big SUV for 2014. Because of standard AWD and other packaging changes, the starting price is higher than direct competitors, the Ford Explorer or Nissan Pathfinder. Both those vehicles have a base model that starts around $30,000, the Durango, in contrast, starts at $39,995 and tops out at $51,995. This Citadel model, with options, is over $60,000. The base model comes nicely equipped with 18-inch wheels, keyless entry and

I tried my hand at this but never its legs on the open road that number really mastered it. The biggest selling would have been much better. Handling point for the Durango is the amount of space it offers over three rows for 6 or 7 passengers. My youngest son loved climbing into the third row and could actually stretch out. I even tried it out and can report that adults have plenty of room in any seat. The Citadel model came equipped with a stunning two-tone interior featuring black carpets and tan seats. This contrast won over my wife who wouldn’t have looked twice at a Durango but after the first week she admitted how much she enjoyed the experience. If you

Verdict This latest Durango is yet another example of what Chrysler is doing right. It is loaded with the latest technology, has a class leading 8-speed automatic, attitude and room to spare. I enjoyed my entire time with it and so did the rest of the family, we even gave it a name, “The Badongo” I don’t know why, but it really is one Bad Durango. If I can read the tea leaves for a moment, I would bet the EcoDiesel will be coming to the Durango, hopefully sooner rather then better.

Predictions of Hybrid extinction are premature ‘‘

Hybrid vehicles have never been more affordable and certainly well worth consideration, if you’re thinking about buying a new vehicle.

’’

Bob McHugh

Tesla CEO Elon Musk recently equated hybrid vehicles to early amphibians that hopped out of the oceans, learned to survive on land and eventually disappeared. Ironically, if the electric vehicle (EV) evolved in a similar way, Tesla (an exclusively EV company) wouldn’t exist right now

and this would probably be in a vibrant Hybrid Age! Despite the early birth of production EV, hybrid (HEV) and now plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) sales continue to rise, new models continue to arrive and at least three all-new PHEVs are expected later this year. An HEV functions just like, or similar to, a conventional gas-engine vehicle, from a driver/ owner perspective. It consumes substantially less fuel, especially in an urban environment, and a regenerative braking system can greatly extend the life of brake friction pads. A PHEV increases the energy saving, money saving, and greenhouse gas reducing advantages by tapping into an electrical source and pulling relatively inexpensive electrical power off

the main grid. It then uses this energy to go further on electrical power alone. How far depends primarily on the capacity (size) of its storage battery, but also on the drive system, the terrain and weather conditions and how the PHEV is driven. Lugging around a bigger battery obviously increases

the weight of a PHEV and it takes up either passenger cabin or more likely trunk cargo space. The latest lithium-ion battery packs are lighter and more compact, but the space sacrifice is something that a prospec-

tive owner must be willing to live with. Hybrid owner feedback is generally very positive and the fuel savings can be substantial. That said, you generally pay a premium for this technology, but that gap is rapidly narrowing. Last year, GM slashed $5,000 off the price of its popular Chevrolet Volt, the best selling PHEV on the market. While GM marketing promotes the Volt as an “extended range” electric vehicle, as its road wheels are always driven by an electric motor, it’s still classified as a PHEV. A small on-board gas engine generates electricity, when necessary. The new Honda Accord Hybrid (a HEV) further blurs the differences between HEV and PHEV, as it uses the same two-motor powertrain used in the Accord

2014 Honda Accord Hybrid Plug-in Hybrid (a PHEV edition that’s currently only sold in selected markets). At speeds under 80 km/h the road wheels are driven by an electric motor and its Atkinson cycle gas engine is only used to generate electrical power, when needed. The current list price for an Accord EX-L is $29,455 and the Accord Hybrid starts at $29,590, which is only $135 more. The top-line Accord Touring V6 sells for $35,400 and the Touring edition of Accord Hybrid is $35,690, just an extra $290. The price differential is almost non-existent. Choosing HEV or PHEV

boils-down to whether an owner can take full advantage of the plug-in electrical storage feature and normal driving commutes are within the electric-only

speed and distance range of the PHEV. A low-speed urban driving commute allowing the PHEV to be charged at home overnight and topped-up again while at work, during the day,

would be an ideal scenario. While the popularity of hybrid vehicles continues to grow, barring a sudden spike in the price of oil/ gasoline, a meteoric rise in the popularity of alternatives to the old reliable gas engine vehicle is unlikely. Then again, who knows what the future, or the next twist in evolution, will bring. Hybrid vehicles have never been more affordable and certainly well worth consideration, if you’re thinking about buying a new vehicle. bob.mchugh@drivewaybc.ca

The redesigned 2011 Grand Cherokee was still unmistakably a Jeep, even though it came with an all-new chassis and body. It was offered with an impressively wide range of

basic hardware choices that included three 4x4 systems, an optional Quadra-Lift air suspension system and two engines. The standard engine is a 3.6-litre Pentastar V6 and other than some early production line glitches, (see

recalls) it’s a pretty reliable, fuel efficient modern unit. A big improvement on the previous 3.7 V6, the 3.6 V6 features 24-valves and variable valve timing and can produce 290 horsepower and 260 lb.-ft. of torque. And fuel economy is rated

at: 13.0/8.9 L/100 km (city/ highway). That’s considerably better than the optional 5.7-litre V8 Hemi engine, which is rated at 15.7 L/100 km in the city and 10.6 L/100 km on the highway. The pulling power (390 lb-ft of torque)

This was optional on the Laredo X, Limited and Overland and adds an electronic limited-slip differential that can concentrate up to 100 per cent of drive to a single wheel. It also comes with Hill Descent Control and Hill Start Assist systems. The optional (Quadra Lift) air suspension can lower or raise (to a maximum of 27 cm) the ride height.

No significant changes were made for the 2013 model year and the big news for 2014 is the introduction of a diesel engine edition plus a new 8-speed automatic transmission. The iconic Jeep brand’s popular premium luxury utility vehicle, the Grand Cherokee has been around for more than twenty years.

In addition to being a more rigid platform, the new chassis gave Grand Cherokee a 13 cm longer wheelbase and a new independent rear suspension. High-speed handling and highway ride comfort, particularly for rear seat passengers, was noticeably improved.

Versatile Sienna is a minivan in name only Ian Harwood

The Toyota Sienna has evolved and adapted to a changing market continuously since its introduction in 1998. Looks: The Sienna van has a very familiar front end. Look no further than the Toyota Venza where it not only shares the same face but also the same platform. In fact, this platform is used in the Highlander, RAV4, and Camry. This new look is attracting buyers that in the past would not see themselves driving a minivan. When I drove it, I felt as if I was driving a crossover, lots of room and power. I like the LED taillights, very bright and easy to see. The optional power sliding doors have retractable windows and are larger making it easier for getting in and out. They are controlled by a push of a button on the key fob.

In The Cab: There is plenty of leg room for the driver and front passenger. Unlike previous Sienna vans where the driver’s seat would only go back so far and taller people ended up with their knees up around the steering wheel. This version is fully adjustable with a longer and wider seat cushion that can make drivers of any size comfortable. The second row has captain’s chairs that have a one touch walk-in feature and the third row is a 60/40 split, with a one-touch stow mechanism that folds seats flat for storage. The XLE Limited comes with a multi-panel moon roof that features two independently controlled sunroofs. The front is a tilt and slide, while the rear just slides. Safety first: There are seven standard airbags, including dual stage front and seat mounted side airbags for driver and

front passenger, plus a new driver side knee airbag. Side curtain airbags cover the entire length of the van. Power: Power is provided by a 3.5 Litre V6, aluminum block, with 266 horsepower and 245 lb ft of torque. The transmission is a six-speed automatic with lock up torque convertor and a transmission cooler. Allwheel drive models include Bridgestone run flat tires. Pump frequency: V6 FWD 11.5/8.1L (city/highway) V6 AWD 12.8/9.0L (city/highway) Warranty support: Basic 60,000 km/ 36 months Powertrain 100,000 km/ 60 months Corrosion Perforation Unlimited km Roadworthy: I had the opportunity to drive this vehicle out to Abbotsford a few times and I was impressed with the handling.

have a lot of body motion and this one did not. Power was there to pass and with the driver seat further back it felt more relaxing. The area behind the third row has a large space for the seats to fold into and when the seats are up, it provides tons of space for storage. Verdict: I like the improved styling in this vehicle and the roomy interior. Although there is enough power to move this vehicle along very well, I did notice the transmission constantly shifting down looking for more power when fully loaded with 7 passengers.

Green Car Journal has awarded the all-new Cadillac ELR electrified luxury coupe its 2014 Green Car Technology Award for the Regen on Demand system. The technology allows the driver to use paddle shifters on the steering wheel to temporarily regenerate energy and store it as electricity in the battery pack for later use. “Putting regenerative braking at the driver’s fingertips supports the ELR’s 340-mile total driving range while also adding a fun-to-drive element to the premium luxury coupe,” said Jim Vurpillat, director of emerging markets at Cadillac. Powering the ELR is a combination of pure electric drive and an efficient, range-extending 1.4L gasoline-powered electric generator. A T-shaped, 16.5 kWh lithium-ion battery pack is located along the centerline of the vehicle, between the front and rear wheels to make the most of weight distribution. kmorgan@blackpress.ca

DrivesU-Crazy Roundabout rebels My peeve is people who “crash” through a roundabout, writes reader John Haygarth. Approaching one, you slow down and look left. If someone is already in, let them continue. Do not cut them off as many do here in Penticton. Before reaching your exit, you signal right to let others know they can enter. They are a great way to filter traffic different ways without traffic lights and if used correctly can actually speed up your trip. What drives-u-crazy? kmorgan@blackpress.ca

Viewed through the lens of the past 40 or 50 years, our favourite classic TV shows seem to have been full of great classic cars. Of course, they were all just new cars then and their presence on our favourite shows was no accident. It was the dawn of the product-placement era, and cars were by far the choicest products to embed in shows like “Green Acres” and “Bewitched.” In those days, the Big Three got near-exclusive sponsorships on the shows plus a credit at the end. Here are some favourite shows and the brand of cars they featured:

• “The Rockford Files”: One of the last great private-eye shows, former big-screen star James Garner played slick Jim Rockford to perfection. And while Rockford almost never used a gun, he did use a gold Pontiac Firebird on a regular basis. Frequent continuity errors meant that Rockford could be seen driving several different years of mid-’70s Firebirds in one scene. • “Green Acres”: One of the trio of CBS’s hit “rural shows,” along with “Petticoat Junction” and “The Beverly Hillbillies,” “Green Acres” was a Ford show, and the cars that received most of the screen time were a series of 1965-67 Lincoln Continental convertibles driven by cranky Oliver Douglas (played by Eddie Albert). • “Charlie’s Angels”: Every adolescent boy’s favourite show was also a Ford show for most of its run. Two of the Angels drove a Mustang II — Farrah Fawcett’s character, Jill, drove what passed for a Cobra in those days — and ironically, the brainy Angel, Sabrina, actually drove a Pinto. • “The Beverly Hillbillies”: The Hillbillies was a comparatively rare Mopar show – The Chrysler Corporation supplied the vehicles. The snobby Drysdales, a drove a Dodge Coronet or a Plymouth Fury convertible. • “Bewitched”: For most of its run, “Bewitched” was proudly pro-Chevy,

OUR HEAVENLY TREASURES

Our moods sometime seem as fleeting as the wind; here one moment and gone the next. We can be in a good mood one minute only to find ourselves feeling sour or blue shortly thereafter. Fortunately, the bad moods usually pass just as quickly as they come. Some psychologists theorize that moods are related to our stockpile of resources, and that while our resources are growing, we tend to be in good moods, whereas dwindling resources can trigger bad moods. On this view, when our circle of friends is growing, our investments are making money, and the sun is shining on our crops, we tend to be in positive moods; but, when our friends leave us, our bank accounts dwindle, and the sun is nowhere to be seen, we are more likely to be in a bad mood. So what can we do to deliver us from our bad moods? Be productive. Do some housework, exercise, work on neglected or damaged relationships, and take stock of our material and spiritual resources. And perhaps most important of all, remember that our most valuable treasure is stored in heaven. So, don’t neglect your relationship with God. In the final accounting, our bank account won’t matter nearly as much as our relationship with God.

The contractor has obtained the necessary provincial and municipal permits and will comply with all regulations. A key requirement is that the contractor does not conduct burning unless the venting index is “good”. This ensures proper air movement exists to minimize smoke impacts to people in the vicinity of the burning.

The 247 kilometre, 500 kilovolt transmission line currently under construction will expand the capacity of the system that brings power to businesses and homes in the Lower Mainland and Vancouver Island.

A longtime Mission volunteer has taken up acting with a featured role in an upcoming presentation by a new dinner theatre company in Whonnock. Glen Kask will appear in Theatre in the Country’s comedy Noises Off for a four-week run, which started Jan. 23. Theatre in the Country came about last year through the work of a group of dedicated thespians who are passionate about bringing quality theatre to the Fraser Valley. Kask has lived in Mission for more than 30 years and jumped at the chance to perform at the dinner theatre, located in the former Whonnock elementary school on 272 Street in Maple Ridge. Since he retired from a career in teaching and journalism, he has performed with Gallery 7 in Abbotsford and Opening Nite Theatre at the Clarke Theatre in Mission. Kask still remains active as a community volunteer, serving on several boards and committees as well as volunteering at blood donor clinics, litter clean-up events and other community projects. For the past two years, Kask has revived the Taste of the Arts in Mission, an intimate evening featuring published authors, music performances and art displays. Several years ago, he established the Glen Kask Theatrical Legacy Fund with the Mission Community Foundation to provide funding assistance to theatre groups in the community. In his current role in Noises Off, Kask faces the daunting challenge of playing an aging actor who keeps forgetting his lines. The show is a boisterous comedy in the fine tradition of British farce. Tickets start at $25 and can be purchased at theatreinthecountry.com or by calling 604-259-9737.

In loving memory of Dr. MICHAEL STANLEY BALE, who died peacefully the evening of January 24, 2014. He had been diagnosed with Pulmonary Fibrosis and remained resilient throughout.

They moved to Aldergrove in 1961 and in 1967 they rented their first farm in Matsqui. After 3 years, they purchased their own farm in Sumas Prairie where they farmed until 1981.

DEVELOPMENT OF A PEST MANAGEMENT PLAN 9850-25-2014

The Fraser Valley Regional District (FVRD) is renewing its approval under the Integrated Pest Management Act for activities, including the use of pesticides, involved in its Nuisance Mosquito Control Program. These activities are conducted under the guidance of a Pest Management Plan (PMP), which is being developed by the FVRD for the 20142019 mosquito seasons. The majority of nuisance mosquitoes in the FVRD breed along the banks of the Fraser River and its tributaries where seasonal flooding and seepage results in substantial mosquito breeding habitat particularly in years of high river levels. Standing waters within the FVRD that are prone to seasonal flooding will be treated between May – July using bacterial larvicides with the active ingredients Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis (Bti) or Bacillus sphaericus (Bsph). Both Bti (trade names Aquabac 200G, Vectobac 200G, or Vectobac 1200L) and Bsph (trade name Vectolex CG) are registered for use in Canada, are target specific to nuisance mosquito larvae, are non-toxic, and are environmentally safe. These proposed pesticides will be applied by either hand or by helicopter to mosquito larvae development sites on nonprivate lands or on owner-approved private lands throughout the FVRD. A person wishing to contribute information about a proposed treatment site, relevant to the development of the PMP, may send copies of the information to the applicant at the address below within 30 days of the publication of this notice.

MISSION SENIORS A monthly guide to events, resources and services for Mission Seniors

Winter Games depend on volunteers of all ages

he BC Winter Games are a major undertaking that can only happen if thousands of community members stand behind them, supporting the 1,344 young athletes as they compete in 18 different sports. Approximately 1,500 volunteers have registered to help out so far, and Mission Games president Brian Antonson says that at least another 500 are needed. “We got a big push now to get lastminute people in.” The Games run Feb. 20-23 at various venues across the Fraser Valley, including Hemlock Resort. Opening and closing ceremonies are at Mission Raceway Park. Most athletes are aged nine to 17. A volunteer could be someone who has three hours to spare on a Friday afternoon, or someone who is free for whole days in a row. “We welcome all people. If you have one day, or one shift, or can be there all BC Winter Games president Brian Antonson said about 1,500 people have registered to volunteer for the Feb. 20-23 event, but more are needed.

Many ways people can help with Games Continued from previous page. four days, great,” said Antonson. In the final push, there are several volunteer posts that particularly need filling. One is drivers of courtesy cars. Also, dorm hosts on sixhour long shifts are needed to keep watch over the participants’ living quarters. “It’s very controlled, very secure,” said Antonson. There is also a need in food services, everything from cleaning tables to food preparation. Food safe training is required for prep. Finally, volunteers are needed for marshalling and hosting services to guide people in and out of the ceremony, and be available

to help with whatever tasks come up during the event itself. “We need people to work in all those kinds of things … just to be there and experience part of the aura of the Games, the spirit of the games. Standing in a parking lot and showing somebody where the last two parking spaces are is not necessarily romantic, but it’s part of the team that makes the whole thing work,” he said. Antonson, a volunteer himself in his role as president of the Games just three years after retirement, is a firm believer in staying active through volunteering. “I think that there is so

much out there to do, that anybody who says, ‘I don’t know what to do,’ is not trying. All you have to do is look at the clubs and groups and associations and things that need help,” he said. “I haven’t had time yet to be bored, because I have had a lot of things to do.” To people who say they lack special talents, Antonson replies: “Well, can you lift things? Can you write things? Can you give an opinion? What did you used to do? What are the talents you can transfer laterally to doing something today? Why not contribute for as long as you can.” To volunteer for the 2014 BC Winter Games, register online at www.bcgames.org.

604.287.8277

Your Voice for a Healthier Community

ew Year’s resolutions and the end of the holiday season mark a time of renewed focus on health for many individuals. However, sometimes in our focus on nutrition, physical activity and smoking behaviours, we can forget that where we work, live and play also influence our health. My Health My Community also provides an opportunity for Mission residents to help improve the health of our community by identifying what health supports are needed in our neighbourhoods. A joint project of Fraser Health, Vancouver Coastal Health and UBC, a survey asks questions ranging from whether or not we have safe places to walk and play, to how easy it is to access fruits and vegetables in our neighbourhood, to whether we feel a sense of connectedness or belonging. The District of Mission has also been working with Fraser Health to promote the survey through linking the survey on

its website. The municipality’s support has been crucial. At this time individuals and organizations are asked to also spread the word and to consider including field surveyors in their public events. They can bring paper copies of the survey in English, Punjabi and Mandarin for those who prefer this option or who may require some assistance. This New Year’s, we hope Mission residents will resolve to not only improve their own individual health, but also the health of their community. Anyone who completes the survey has 10 chances to win an iPad. The survey and more information can be found at www. myhealthmycommunity.org. Contact Anne Todd at 604-217-3111 or anne. todd@fraserhealth.ca if you are aware of an event that would be suitable for the field surveyors to attend. The deadline to complete the survey in March 31, 2014.

The B.C. Pensioners’ and Seniors’ Organization promotes all matters pertaining to the welfare of the elder citizens of B.C. It presents resolutions to various levels of government and its agencies on issues that have been voted on and passed by members at the annual convention. The B.C. Pensioners’ and Seniors’ Organization is concerned with all aspects of seniors’ lives, including pensions, taxation, finances, health issues, home support, medicare and Pharmacare, housing and rental issues, social safety, abuse, neglect, fair treatment and loneliness. At the annual conventions, members discuss and vote on the resolutions submitted by branches throughout B.C. They also elect members of the provincial board at these conventions. In May 1946, Mission OAPO, Branch #28 obtained its Charter. In August 1946, the first milestone for Branch #28 was to work with other OAPO groups and the western provincial governments to get an increase in pensions, which had started at $20 in 1927 and was still only at $30. Within a year, after much hard work by many people, it had risen to $75. In 1956, the OAPO Branch #28 helped to get Pleasantview started and in 1957 hosted its first OAPO convention. We, the BCOAPO, are affiliated with COSCO (Council of Senior Citizens Organization).

Meet ... Brian Antonson “I admit to being a Pollyanna. I always look for the best in people.” Brian Antonson

INTRODUCTION

Although Brian has technically left the work force, he may be as busy now as he ever was. The retired radio broadcaster and BCIT instructor has taken the helm of the 2014 BC Winter Games in his hometown of Mission, a volunteer position that has him coordinating more than 2,000 other volunteers, as well as the minute logistics of getting the large event off the ground. Brian and wife Sue have lived in Mission for 40 years. They have a son and a daughter, two grandchildren, and a dog named Sassy.

VOLUNTEER At 65 years old, Brian has become entrenched in Mission through his decades of community involvement. Apart from his current presidency of the 2014 BC Winter Games, Brian is a past chair of Community Futures in Mission. He has also been deeply involved in protecting Mission’s heritage, and was part of the crew that saved Heritage Park from development. He remains a board member with the Mission Heritage Association. Alongside his brother, Brian has written a book, entitled Slumach’s Gold: In Search of a Legend, about a lost Canadian gold mine with gold nuggets “the size of walnuts.”

KEEPING ACTIVE The self-professed eternal optimist hasn’t yet had time to be bored during retirement. The Games keep him busy, and when they’re over, he is sure to find the next project around the corner.

Dental Implants gave us a confident smile

This couple have something to smile about. They used to wear dentures, which caused discomfort, an inability to eat many foods and a lack of conÀdence when it came to smiling and talking. Now they enjoy the freedom of NobelSmile dental implants, which are as close to natural teeth as you can get. People who lose a tooth want to replace it with something permanent, says Dr. Lui, instead of something they have to remove. “Once you give someone new, permanent teeth, you can see their personality shine through again.”

“Whether you have a single tooth, several teeth or everyone of them missing...we can help.”
