Court ruling welcomed by Sto:lo

■ R OLLOVER C RASH

Court decision on aboriginal title has local implications Jennifer Feinberg The Progress It’s going to be a game-changer in the struggle for aboriginal rights and title. A court case for aboriginal title that took almost 25 years for the Tsilhqot’in Nation of B.C. is going to have implications for First Nations in Chilliwack — as well as clear across the country. A historic ruling by the Supreme Court of Canada upholds the BC Supreme Court decision recognizing aboriginal title to huge tracts of land totalling almost 2,000 square km in the heart of the Tsilhquot’in territory, west of Williams Lake. Sto:lo leaders had similar reactions. Joe Hall, president of Sto:lo Nation Chiefs’ Council, took a break from treaty meetings to describe how he sees Supreme Court decision. “As you’d expect, we are very pleased with the decision,” he said. “In summary, the government has been told it can’t run roughshod over First Nations’ rights.” Sto:lo legal counsel is still scouring the 80-plus page decision for “pieces” they can implement in their ongoing treaty talks. “It came with a message that it’s time for governments to start following the Supreme Court rulings on aboriginal title, it’s time to go back and negotiate. It’s been made clear they need to consult, and then accommodate First Nations to resolve the issues,” Hall said. The court ruling has “tremendous” implications for current treaty discussions, and touches on a range of areas of interest to Sto:lo communities, including future resource development on their territories, Hall said. There are many projects and ventures put on hold, pending resolution of outstanding questions around aboriginal rights and title, he noted. Continued: COURT/ p5

An RCMP officer investigates the scene where a 20-year-old woman flipped her car while travelling southbound on Wiltshire Street, just south of Stevenson Road on Thursday. The woman was the only person in the Chevrolet Cavalier at the time. She was not seriously hurt, nor did she collide with anything else. Before the rollover happened, one witness said, the driver was sitting in her parked car about a hundred metres north. The woman then drove off and moments later the witness heard a crash. RCMP continue to investigate. JENNA HAUCK/ PROGRESS

Summer school pickets next: BCTF Tom Fletcher Black Press Teacher pickets will target locations where summer school is being carried out if they don’t have a settlement of their strike by June 30. BC Teachers’ Federation president Jim Iker announced that decision Wednesday, as he prepared for the first meeting with BC Public School Employers’ Association since a full-scale strike began June 17. The meeting has been characterized as “exploratory talks”

dealing with possible mediation. BCPSEA has applied to the Labour Relations Board for summer school offerings to be declared essential services, if they are “secondary remedial programs provided to students who have failed a secondary level course.” Summer programs for elementary school students, international students or secondary students trying to improve a passing grade would not be protected by an LRB order, meaning the majority of summer programs wouldn’t go ahead.

Iker said the union is also considering the plight of B.C.’s five modified calendar schools, which have three month-long breaks instead of the traditional summer vacation. They are in the middle of their final three-month term and are facing more disruption than other schools. BCPSEA has also applied for essential service protection so they can resume operation. Iker said if there is no deal by June 30, BCTF negotiators would be available to continue talks, rather than take the sum-

mer off as they have done in previous disputes. The two sides remain far apart on wages and benefits, with a long-running dispute over class size and special needs support levels going back to court this fall. Chilliwack school district, meanwhile, was holding a special board meeting Thursday evening to consider how it would handle facility rentals over the summer months.

Coho to take bigger hit during sockeye fishery Jeff Nagel Black Press Conservationists say a federally approved fishing plan sacrifices too many endangered coho salmon so fishing companies can catch more of an expected massive run of Fraser River sockeye this summer. The predicted bonanza of sockeye – 23 million with a chance it could be more than 70 million – means there’s intense pressure for fishermen to capitalize on the huge run. But if too many coho are caught in the nets along with sockeye, it could be a major setback for

Interior coho runs that were nearly wiped out in the late 1990s and had been gradually rebuilding. In past years, the Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) has limited that unintentional bycatch to three per cent of the incoming coho run – once that many coho were caught sockeye fisheries were usually halted to protect weaker runs. But DFO’s newly released plan more than quadruples that limit to a maximum 16 per cent of the coho run that can be killed this year by Canadian fishermen, not counting any bycatch by Americans. “It should be called an overfish-

ing plan,” said Watershed Watch Salmon Society biologist Aaron Hill, who accuses fishery managers of neglecting their duty to protect weak stocks. “The main reason this is happening is because of heavy lobbying from the fishing interests who want to be able to catch more sockeye.” A DFO letter to stakeholders says the changes will only be in effect for the 2014 season and was informed by an internal scientific review. But Hill contends there is no scientific consensus on the safety of the coho protection measures. Gord Sterritt, executive direc-

tor of the Upper Fraser Fisheries Conservation Alliance, which represents 23 First Nations from Williams Lake to the Fraser’s headwaters, said aboriginal stakeholders were prepared to accept some increase in allowed coho bycatch in recognition that this is “a unique year” but said DFO’s decision goes too far. “Basically they are opening the season on endangered species,” Sterritt said. “We’ve been in conservation mode trying to protect these stocks since 1998. We’ve seen some recovery in the last three years. But it’s still iffy.” Conservationists argue more

Loud aircraft in Chilliwack spurs debate, again Jennifer Feinberg The Progress Some don’t seem to mind the roar of aircraft twisting and soaring over Chilliwack, others can’t tolerate it. High performance planes doing practice runs over Chilliwack skies this week have garnered a few complaints into the Chilliwack airport management. Since pilot Dave ‘Super Dave’ Mathieson made the Chilliwack Airport his home base a couple of years ago, when summer rolls around, he starts conducting twice daily practice flights. The debate exploded on social media as commentators were divided over whether they could tolerate, or even enjoy the sound of high performance planes or not. Many said they loved the free show Super Dave is offering everyone for a few minutes a day, while others said they were quite disturbed by it. Chilliwack resident Bob Janzen called The Progress to say he doesn’t understand why Super Dave can’t do his manoeuvres and routines elsewhere — not over Chilliwack, for example. “I appreciate that he has to practice. My concern is the noise. Why can’t he fly 10 kilometres outside the city?” Janzen said his patio faces the hospital, and he’s concerned it could impact patients as well. “I phoned around but can’t seem to get any satisfaction about this.” But Ray Firkus of the Chilliwack Flight Fest Society said he hopes people will understand. Super Dave obtained all the necessary federal aviation permits to do these flights, and he has to practise regularly to keep them. “They might find it a little noisy, but this airport is a lot less congested than say the one in Vancouver. It’s just that the one

sockeye could be taken without putting coho at risk through increased use of selective in-river fisheries, which First Nations have practised for centuries. DFO spokesperson Michelle Imbeau said the higher permitted bycatch should still allow enough coho upriver to spawn to meet conservation recovery targets, based on an estimated run size of 50,000 coho. Hill singled out the Jim Pattison Group’s Canadian Fishing Co. (Canfisco) as a main lobbyist for looser coho safeguards. Continued: SALMON/ p7

in Chilliwack is in the middle of town.” It’s true there has been slightly more traffic in the skies over Chilliwack than usual lately. Super Dave and other pilots like him, and those in training have been flying in the skies over Chilliwack to get hours logged for safety reasons. Some are being assessed for air shows by competency evaluators. “These planes all sound so loud because they’re high performance planes,” he said. It’s a business incidentally for show pilots like Super Dave, not a hobby, as some have suggested. “It’s a matter of trying to practise their business craft and do it safely.” And only for 15 minutes at a time. He wants folks to understand that Super Dave can’t just go elsewhere to practise. The professional pilot uses the Chilliwack Airport runways as his specific training markers.

HELD! BENCH$CRAFT OVER SOFA $599 LOVESEAT 569

“He’s got to hit those marks.” The pilot uses them as visual cues to aid in timing. It’s crucial to practise the rolls and hair-raising flips that require split-second timing. Aerobatic pilots also have to get their “g tolerance” or gravity tolerance built up every season to withstand the effects of the stupendous stunts. “It’s like any other muscle, if you don’t exercise it, you go downhill fast,” said Firkus. Super Dave has to stay in tiptop form to perform every year in air shows like the Chilliwack Flight Fest. “Air show performers take an inherent risk when they do an air show - but the public does not,” he explained. The pilots fly with a cap of 800 feet, which gives them an “aerobatic box” that keeps them 500 feet from the crowd. There’s also an economic argument to be made. Pilots like Mathieson purchase airport han-

gar space or get their planes serviced here and it means tens of thousands in spinoffs. One pilot coming in from Arizona will be spending $60,000 to get his plane worked on here, because he’ll be working with the local pilot. “These are just two outfits over the last two months. Dave is showcasing what we can do here in Chilliwack. If he wasn’t here, that business would go elsewhere.” The airport is actively trying to attract new business to Chilliwack. Magnum Management officials who manage the airport operations just set up a way for the public to communicate with them, since many were trying to phone in noise complaints.

Unionized health care workers have ratified a new five-year contract that brings B.C. closer to long-term labour peace in hospitals and care homes. The collective agreement reached earlier this month with 11 unions averted a possible strike by 47,000 health support workers, most of them represented by the Hospital Employees Union. It was approved by a 64.6 per cent vote in favour. The deal provides wage hikes of 5.5 per cent over five years and includes a cap on contracting out of 500 full-time equivalent positions. It also covers ambulance paramedics, with specific provisions related to their issues. HEU secretary-business manager Bonnie Pearson said the agreement provides some stability and certainty in a sector that’s been racked by privatization and restructuring. Union members had voted 96 per cent in favour of strike action in May. The agreement is within the limits of the province’s economic stability mandate, meaning health workers are eligible for further pay hikes if the province’s economy does better than forecast. “This agreement helps ensure sustainability, both in costs and service delivery,” said Michael Marchbank, president of the Health Employers Association of B.C. He said it also further integrates emergency health services into the broader health care system and paves the way for the province-wide implementation of a paramedicine program. The province now has similar longterm deals with 75,000 unionized health care workers.

Benefits Of Bamboo Flooring! Bamboo is an eco-friendly, highly renewable source of material which grows much faster than traditional hardwoods. Moso Bamboo is the primary species used for the manufacturing of flooring and it can grow up to 4’ per day and 75’ in 45 days. It takes about 3-5 years for Bamboo to reach maturity. Traditional hardwoods take 20-120 years to mature. Bamboo can be harvested without replanting and in a sustainably harvested forest only 20% of the forest is harvested annually allowing for 100% harvest in a 5 year period. Bamboo naturally needs no irrigation, no fertilizers and no pesticides as it has very few pests. Trillium Bamboo Flooring is certified to meet the standards of the Forest Stewardship Council for environmental and social responsibility.

The province has plugged a loophole that could have let new medical marijuana producers dodge most of their property tax bills by gaining farm tax status. They’re now excluded from the list of agricultural uses that qualify for the lower agricultural tax rate. Several Lower

Mainland cities had feared they might lose property tax revenue if new cannabis producers set up on industrial land and then ask B.C. Assessment to convert them to farm tax status. “There’s a collective sigh of relief among municipalities,” Maple Ridge Mayor Ernie Daykin said of the decision, which takes effect in 2015. The provincial gov-

ernment is also advising municipalities not to try to ban medical marijuana operators from the Agricultural Land Reserve, cautioning that they might face a court challenge. Several cities have passed bylaws allowing pot producers to operate only on industrial land, so the highly secure bunker-like buildings don’t effectively pave over productive farmland.

While the province views medical pot as a viable ALR use, it would not qualify for farm tax status there either, joining the ranks of gravel pits, wineries and other activities allowed in the ALR but denied the reduced tax rate. The federal government has so far issued five medical marijuana production licenses in B.C. to operators in Central

Before being hired as a swim instructor, she volunteered at the YMCA with child-minding and as a helper with swim lessons; she’s ben a camp counsellor; volunteered for the Rotary Club; and for the last two years, has been vice president on student council at Chilliwack secondary. She’s also an active member in the CSS Envirothon Club, a competitive soccer player, and a budding artist. “I think it was, honestly, my all-around volunteering,” she said. “Grades aren’t everything, they want to see a well-rounded person.

the urging of both her mother and sister, Rillera scrambled to write three essays, put together a resume, gather reference letters, and create a chart of all her extracurricular activities, employment and volunteering commitments. “I wasn’t actually going to apply, I honestly thought I wasn’t capable of being accepted into something like this,” she said. “I just thought that other people would probably have way better marks, way better extracurriculars, way better self confidence. I just didn’t think I was good enough.” Her family, her supporters, and Shad Valley all thought otherwise.

News DFO quadruples allowable kill of weak salmon runs SALMON from page 3 Canfisco vice-president Rob Morley said there’s broad support for the plan in the commercial and recreational fishing sectors. “In our view, the scientific analysis the department has done themselves shows the harvest at these levels are sustainable and don’t cause any conservation issues,” he said.

Besides coho, some weak runs of sockeye that return to Cultus Lake, Pitt Lake, Bowron Lake and Taseko Lake could also be at greater risk in a summer of heavy fishing for the abundant sockeye runs. The sockeye now migrating back to B.C. from the north Pacific are the spawn of the massive 2010 run when 30 million unexpectedly returned. Last year’s return

of four million sockeye was more typical of recent years,

R AESIDE

July 1 is Canada’s 147th birthday. This country now has a lengthy history as an independent nation. For most of the past 147 years, Canada has been respectful of other countries and of its wide variety of people, who come from widely disparate backgrounds and traditions. There are some significant exceptions however, which must be stated up front. Canada has done a generally poor job in maintaining good relations with the aboriginal people who were here before any immigrants came from offshore. It is only in recent years that more Canadians have started to appreciate the unique perspective that First Nations people bring to this country. Here in B.C., where we have a wide variety of very different First Nations groups, most of whom have no treaties, First Nations issues are front and centre, as was demonstrated on Thursday by a Supreme Court of Canada decision on aboriginal title, brought forward by the Tsilhqot’in Nation. The other blot on our history comes in the treatment of Asians, particularly the Japanese during the Second World War. While there have been apologies and financial settlements, that aspect of our history is a shameful one — as were the discriminatory tactics used to keep out prospective immigrants from China and India. What Canada does do well, however, is to learn from our past mistakes. This country has always been a grouping of very different people. In 1867, it was the aboriginal people, those of French background, and those of British background. Since that time, people came to help populate the wide-open spaces in the country, and they have come from all over the world. At first, most came from Europe and the United States. There were also early settlers of Chinese and Japanese backgrounds. In the past 50 years, the doors have been opened wider for people from all over. Together, these diverse peoples have forged a country respectful of religions, traditions and cultures; committed to fight injustices; economically strong and well-positioned — and one of the best places in the world to live. Happy Birthday, Canada. ~ Black Press

L OCALLY G LOBAL

Dysfunctional education relationship needs to be fixed Few labour disputes have been as bitter and as entrenched as the standoff between the British Columbia Teachers Federation and the provincial government. With millions of dollars separating the chance of a deal before month’s end, even the #1 go-to guy Vince Ready said thanks but no thanks to helping them resolve the mess. While BCTF is looking for a plan B mediator, thoughts are that mediation at this state of the game won’t yield a deal. Meanwhile, kids and parents are caught in the middle worrying about grades, report cards and the assurance that summer school will be open for those needing/wanting to take extra courses or upgrade their marks in anticipation of making their course-load lighter next school year. I hate to say, assuming there is one.

Searching for an answer, Mike Lombardi, vice-chair of the Vancouver School Board floated the idea on Wednesday of appointing an industrial inquiry commissioner to bring the parties together. Apparently, another teacher’s dispute was resolved that way back in 2005. The commissioner, Lombardi said, would have Margaret the power to make binding public EVANS recommendations to be put before the two sides. With nothing else in sight, why not? Just about everyone is fed up with this fight. It’s become, quite frankly, dysfunctional. And with this school year winding down, the provincial government has

applied to the Labour Relations Board to have summer school designated an essential service, forcing striking teachers to teach remedial courses to high school students. Half of the province’s school districts run summer schools and some 50,000 students take advantage of them not only to improve their grades but to get ahead of the curve. Some of them are international students needing special programs but the province is focusing on the remedial level to get essential service status. But if that flies and summer school is deemed ‘essential’, why isn’t school essential? After all, according to the UN Declaration of the Rights of the Children, every child has the fundamental right to an education. It’s pretty harsh that the BCTF has already decided to picket summer school

facilities should they be up and running. That’s a pretty brutal way of punishing students trying to get ahead. According to Minister of Education Peter Fassbender, the union’s wage and benefit demands alone are more than twice what other unions have settled for. And other contract demands have pushed the two parties millions of dollars apart. The province is in a strong position. It is years away from another election, having won a majority last year, and they are sticking to the balanced budget mandate. The teachers aren’t the only unionized workforce to be dealt with. The province has settled with other unions in which public sector workers have agreed to a modest 5.5 per cent raise over five years compared to the teachers’ demand for an 8 per cent raise with a hefty $5,000

signing bonus. Never mind the millions attached to class size and composition. The province won’t ink a deal in which teachers get way more than anyone else. While the traditional school year has wound down schools on the alternate, year-round calendar are really getting hit as their year doesn’t finish until the end of July. With no settlement, those students could miss six weeks of school, which is totally unacceptable. The province and the BCTF are at a stalemate in a long, bitter 12 year fight and it seems the public are equally divided. In a recent Insights West poll commissioned by CTV News, households with children in public school supported the teachers 46 per cent while 47 per cent supported the government. This mess has to be settled.

Local trustees ‘abdicating’ their role After reading Katie Bartel’s recent story about the fraudulent report cards that teachers are being forced to “okay.” I feel it is time to ask the SD 33 “leaders” to end their silence. (Teachers call report card plan ‘unethical’, Progress, June 25.) To the Chilliwack school district trustees, superintendent, and administrators I ask; When the Supreme Court justice found, for the second time, that the BC Liberal government was violating our teachers rights you said nothing. You did nothing. When the government told teachers they were locked out at lunch, for 45 minutes before school and for 45 minutes after school you did nothing. You said nothing. When the same government used this “partial” lockout as a way to dock teachers’ pay by 10 per cent, you did nothing. You said nothing. During this assault on teachers’ rights and education as a whole, the administrators have kept quiet and did not see their pay cut by 10 per cent. When the government then told teachers that despite the lockout, and the pay cut, they should still be doing

all the volunteer work they do for no pay, you remained silent and implemented the pay cut. Then, the kicker, when the LRB insisted high school teachers sign off on inaccurate, and in many cases likely false, grades, you did nothing. You said nothing. Why the silence? Need I remind you that you work for Chilliwack school district, and by extension the community, not the Liberal government? Trustees, you are in charge of SD 33 not the provincial government. The trustees are responsible for the improvement of student achievement in the school district. With your silence you are complicit in the decline of specialist teachers in this district. With your silence you are saying it is okay for the government to violate teachers’ constitutional rights. With your silence you are saying it is not a problem to take away teachers’ pay and demand they do the same amount of work. With your silence you are all contradicting what each and every one of you said during election time - that you would stand up and speak up for public education. I am not suggesting you

have to agree with the teachers’ bargaining position. I am stating that you have been far too silent for far too long on the government cuts, the denigration of teachers as a profession, the violation of rights, the government ads that misrepresent the teachers’ position. You are supposed to be the local voice of education in this community. Yet you are silent. If you agree with the government, say so. If you disagree, say so. If it is somewhere in between and you have a different take on the current crisis, say so. It is not just this past few weeks but the months and months that this has dragged on. In your silence you have abdicated any leadership role you claim to have. You have abdicated your roles as the community’s voice in public education. You have simply stood by, mute, silent, during the largest education crisis in British Columbia in this century. I am assuming none of you will be seeking re-election as all you could promise us is your silence in the face of adversity. John-Henry Harter Chilliwack

Report card ruling ‘a travesty’ I laughed when I saw the LRB ruling about Grade 10 and 11 marks last Friday, because I thought it would be a logistical nightmare that couldn’t happen. Imagine my incredulity today when I find out it is happening. Parents and everyone concerned with education today should be informed about the process that has been put in place. Currently marks are being generated for all Gr. 10 and 11 students by district administration. Teachers have been advised that the mark generated will be based on the last report mark in the BCESIS marking system. Teachers will then have 48 hours to

visit the local Teacher’s Association office to review and modify these marks. Keeping in mind that this mark will be on Gr. 10 and 11 students’ high school transcripts, there are a number of issues with this process: • Many teachers do not use BCESIS for generating marks, but only to record final term and report card marks. Therefore, for many students their final mark will be the mark they received on the April report card. This may mean some students fail or have lower marks, even if they have since completed work to bring their mark up. • When teachers review these marks,

they must do so without records that are in the schools. Somehow teachers are supposed to remember how well up to 120 students did in their courses over the last semester. A fabricated mark like this has no evidence behind it – it goes against every principle of quality student assessment. • The School Act sets out the requirements for teachers related to curriculum and grading. We are required to teach and assess all the prescribed learning outcomes (PLOs) for our courses. A mark generated based on the April report is only based on about half the PLOs for a course – it negates two months of time and

effort students have put into learning, as well as breaks a legal statute. When parents receive report cards for these students, they will need to scrutinize them carefully, as the marks were not likely generated by their child’s teachers. I would urge parents and others to contact their school trustees and school district administration about the travesty this process makes of student evaluation. Contact the Ministry of Education and your MLA as well, asking why there has been so little consideration for the integrity of student evaluation in this LRB ruling and in which it is being carried out.

Family Place Parenting

ters t a M

A year ago, while Daisy was pregnant and attending the Better Beginnings prenatal nutrition program, a friend invited Daisy to Downtown Family Place. Daisy was facing an absolutely difficult time and welcomed the physical and emotional supports from Family Place with relief. Daisy enjoyed the comfy couch, coffee and tea and especially the hot cup of soup when she was short on finances. On Wednesday evenings from 5:00-7:00 the whole family can share a simple dinner of soup and bread, followed with a fun playtime afterwards. “I come with my son, now 8 months old, and we take a load off and relax. The staff and volunteers are knowledgeable and warm, creating a comfortable space. It’s conveniently close to where we live and everyone knows my name.” “Staff teach everyone about child development and parenting in ways that make it easy to learn. Family Place is absolutely fantastic! I appreciate this service and am glad CCS continues to offer it.” Family Places offer friendly parent support and child development activities in a FREE play-based drop-in program for parents or caregivers and their children ages 0-6. Family Places are found across Canada (www.frpbc.ca) and are open 12 months a year. Contact Sherry Sinclair at sinclairs@comserv.bc.ca or 604-793-7205.

Four simple ways to makeover your favourite recipe Last week one of our regular clients indulged in a serving of Jambalaya from Boston Pizza the night before. She loves Jambalaya- she loves the textures, the spices, and the combination of flavours. I fully agree that food is meant to be enjoyed- but if you are also trying to improve your health, the less often you eat out, the better. According to the online nutrition information, a full order of Jambalaya at Boston Pizza has 1350 calories, almost the same number of calories someone needs in an entire day. Fortunately, with a few savvy substitutions, and a search for healthier recipes, you can make

your favourite dishes at home, for a fraction of the calories (and cost!). Enjoy the foods you love and still feel good when your meal is done. Here are Tanja four ways to give SHAW your favourite dish a healthy makeover without sacrificing taste. Recipe Makeover #1: Add more veggies. Veggies are rich in flavor, fibre, and nutrients, yet low in calories. By pumping up the meal with veggies, you will increase the nutritional profile of

a meal while cutting back on the total number of calories. Try pureeing veggies and adding them to sauces. You can also swap starches for vegetables. Try enjoying your pasta sauce over a bed of roasted spaghetti squash, or your stir-fry over ‘riced’ cauliflower. Cauliflower can also make a great substitute for mashed potatoes. Recipe Makeover #2: Swap some of the ingredients for healthier options. For example, swap white pasta for whole grain noodles, white rice for brown rice. When cooking with meat, choose leaner cuts of meat. Recipe Makeover #3: Cut back on calorie-dense ingredients. Go

light on the higher calorie ingredients such as oil, cream, butter, cheese, and fatty condiments like mayo. Trust me, you and your waistline won’t miss the extra fat. Also go light on the salt; we generally get more than enough sodium in our diet.

Recipe Makeover #4: Go big on flavour. Instead of sugary sauces and condiments, use herbs and spices to enhance the flavor your dishes. Before making your favourite dish, look for ways to make the recipe a little bit healthier. By making a few simple changes you can transform almost any recipe into a dish that nourishes your body and your soul. Tanja Shaw is the owner of Ascend Fitness Inc., a private training studio.

African children sing for freedom The African Children’s Choir is performing at Chilliwack Alliance Church on July 13. Katie Bartel The Progress Their charming smiles, talented voices, and bright eyes show only one piece of their story. Next month, a group of African children will be performing at Chilliwack Alliance Church as part of the African Children’s Choir. The colourful concert promises to boast a range of children’s songs, as well as traditional, spiritual and contemporary African music, an assortment of ethnic instrumentation, cultural dancing, hand clapping, and more. Their spirit is no doubt astonishing. “When you see these children perform, when you see their smiles, their energy, their enthusiasm and their thirst for life, you’re kind of amazed at just how much hope they have,” said tour leader Nate Longstaff. All from war-torn Uganda, these children, ranging in age from nine to 11 years old, have experienced more devastation in their young lives than most in the Western World could fathom. They’ve lost parents, had to leave their homes, have lived in squalor and fear, have been denied education. “The background of where they come from is very, very difficult,” said Longstaff. And yet, “they are beacons of hope.” The African Children’s Choir was established in 1984, when humanitarian Ray Barnett, of White Rock, saw first hand the devastation and sorrows of Africa on a missions trip. He also witnessed the beauty and hope sung from the mouths of the native children. It was those voices that pushed him towards making a change. Barnett could have developed a program, like many others, that showed the poverty, starvation, injustice, disease and violence displayed every day in African countries, but he felt the world was becoming fatigued by the depress-

ing images. Instead, Barnett created the Children’s Choir with the purpose of making a meaningful difference one child at a time. Working with parent organization, Music for Life, the African Children’s Choir raises funds for schools and universities. It provides free education for every child in the choir, as well as others savaged by war and poverty. It also takes literacy and music education programs to villages where there aren’t any schools, and provides HIV/Aids education as well. Operating now for 30 years, it works in seven African countries and has helped over 200,000 peo-

ple. Several of the choir children over the years, who started in the slums, have become pillars in their communities – doctors, lawyers, journalists, teachers, engineers – all because of the African Children’s Choir. The choirs have performed before presidents, heads of state, and most recently the Queen of England. They’ve also sung alongside Paul McCartney, Annie Lennox, Keith Urban, and Mariah Carey. This tour is the 41st choir. “These children are ambassadors for their brothers and sisters,” said Longstaff. “It is tremendous to be able to

be a part of the growth of these children. When they first came on tour, they were very shy, very tentative, unsure of the experiences, wary of adults because of the treatments they’ve had.” And now, “They are growing physically, spiritually, they’re developing their characters and are really coming out of their shell. They’re flourishing. “It’s incredible, it really is.” And their performances, Longstaff said, will capture even the toughest of hearts. “I have seen every shape, size, colour, loud, quiet, I have met them all while on tour, and everyone comes away with a very

similar response,” said Longstaff. “It inspires hope. You come away from a performance like this with a different perspective on life – that is one of the tremendous things about the touring choir.” The African Children’s Choir is performing at Chilliwack Alliance Church on Sunday, July 13 at 6:30 p.m. The concert is free admission. A free-will offering will be taken at the performance to support African Children’s Choir programs, such as education, care, relief and development programs. kbartel@theprogress.com twitter.com/schoolscribe33

Community Doug Hamilton honored for leadership in founding of Fraser Valley College Few people alive today have as long an association with Fraser Valley College as Doug Hamilton. Hamilton, a retired agrologist who turns 90 on July 3, was the first chair of the Fraser Valley College board, or council as it was called then, in 1974. But even before that, he played an integral role in the creation of a college in the Valley. For his dedication to education and leadership in the early days of Fraser Valley College, Hamilton received an honorary Doctor of Laws degree from the University of the Fraser Valley at its recent Convocation ceremony. As UFV celebrates its 40th anniversary and sends more than 2,100 new graduates out in the world this year, it can be difficult to imagine a time when the Fraser Valley didn’t have a public university, or even a college. But until April 1974, that was the case. People who wanted to get a postsecondary education had to move away. Groups of concerned citizens worked together on several occasions throughout the 1960s and ’70s to lobby for a college, but early efforts were unsuccessful. In the 1970s, Hamilton worked for the BC Ministry of Agriculture and was also a member of the Abbotsford school board. In 1973, he was elected chair of the steering committee that worked as part of the provincial government-appointed task force looking at the feasibility of establishing a college in the Fraser Valley. Representatives of all the local school districts also took part in the steering committee. “We held meetings all over the Fraser Valley, explaining the concept of a community college and looking for community support,” Doug recalls. “I also travelled to Ottawa to see the MP to sell him on the concept. We visited colleges in Prince George and Nanaimo and BCIT to look at the different models of education out there. “Many of us strongly believed that local kids shouldn’t have to leave home for their first or second year of university, and that they should have the opportunity to ease into post-secondary slowly while living at home.” In his professional life Hamilton’s job as an agriculture extension special-

Doug Hamilton received an honorary Doctor of Laws degree from the University of the Fraser Valley.

ist came with a mandate of providing guidance, continuing education, and advice to farmers in the egg industry. Thus he served as an educator within the field of agriculture in our communities even before there was a Fraser Valley College or any formal agricultural education programs. “Given my professional background in agriculture and the Valley’s strong agricultural sector, I also believed that whatever type of college we created needed a strong agricultural component.” The task force recommended the establishment of a college in the Fraser Valley. In fact in its summary report in 1973, members noted that they considered that the case was so strong that their task was not to justify the provision of the service, but rather to suggest the appropriate means to provide it. When government permission was granted to hold a plebiscite to gauge the support of local taxpayers, the task force went into high gear with a publicity campaign to convince the public to come out and vote in favour of a college. In the end, 89 percent of voters supported a college. Once the provincial government made the proclamation that created Fraser Valley College on April 4, 1974, five senior employees of local school districts (Eric Woodroff, Betty Urquhart, Frank Dolman, Roy Craven, and Bill Sharp) were seconded to work on planning the college at a frenzied pace, as it was to open five months later in September. The first college council (later called board of governors) was appointed on April 23, 1974 with Hamilton as the chair. He

also led the search for a college principal. “After careful consideration, we decided that Dr. Larry Blake was the person we needed to lead the new college, as he had considerable experience in starting up colleges in the United States,” Hamilton recalls. Hamilton and the rest of the board were also involved in hiring the first deans, and thus had a significant influence on establishing the early culture at Fraser Valley College. He served as board chair until 1979. Dick Bate, one of the founding deans of Fraser Valley College, was happy to support Hamilton’s nomination for an honorary degree. “I first met Doug Hamilton in January 1975 when I became Dean of Instruction at Fraser Valley College. Our initial meeting included the newly established board and the initial senior administration. The excitement and optimism in that group was contagious as we discussed the challenges faced by the Board. Building an institution from the ground up was a daunting task but I had the good fortune to observe Doug’s leadership as board chair and knew we were in good hands. We all learned a great deal from him and I believe it was he who set the correct tone so necessary for the effectiveness of the board then and for future boards. “Doug was a passionate supporter of FVC. His commitment to build a future on a strong foundation, and his positive approach with people was in my view a vital and critical contribution to the ongoing success of FVC, UCFV and UFV,” Bate added. “Doug is very much a product of the Fraser Valley. He

took great pride in his professional work for the Ministry of Agriculture as poultry specialist and humorously described himself as the ‘Valley Chicken Man’. He strongly believed that local people, both recent high school graduates and returning adults, should have an opportunity to acquire a post-secondary education in the Fraser Valley. In many ways he was ahead of his time.” Almost 40 years later, Hamilton is amazed at the growth that has occurred at the little instant college in the Fraser Valley that he helped to found. Some of his children and grandchildren have been students, and his granddaughter Samantha Hamilton will receive her Bachelor of Science degree at the same ceremony at which he is being honoured. “I am so very honoured by this recognition, and very proud to have played a role in ensuring that Fraser Valley youth were able to obtain an education close to home,” says Hamilton. In addition to a lengthy career in the agricultural sector and his volunteer time with the Fraser Valley College Council and Abbotsford school board, Hamilton was a leader of Trinity Memorial United Church in Abbotsford, and a member of the Abbotsford Lions Club. He is also a veteran of the Second World War, having served in the Canadian Navy from 1941–45. He has family roots in the Fraser Valley dating back to the 1920s, and recalls with fondness visiting his uncle’s farmhouse in Rosedale (which is still standing today) as a boy in the 1930s.

Community Tele-workshop connects caregivers with support Struggling with the challenges of providing care to someone with dementia from a distance? Chilliwack family caregivers can get help from a free tele-workshop offered by the non-profit Alzheimer Society of B.C. Called Long Distance Caregiving, the Tuesday, July 15 tele-workshop offers strategies to better cope with the situation, including assessing needs, identifying resources, maximizing visits and sharing responsibilities with others. More than 70,000 people in the province - many of them in the local area -- live with dementia, and that number is increasing dramatically as the population ages. The tele-workshop starts at 7 p.m. Connecting to the sessions is as easy as phoning toll-free 1-866-994-7745, then entering pass code 1122333 when prompted, or visiting momentum. adobeconnect.com/alzheimerbc and entering as a Guest to listen to and view the presentation online at the same time. Tele-workshops are learning sessions designed for family caregivers, but are also open to healthcare providers. Recognizing that many caregivers are unable to attend in-person workshops, the sessions can be accessed by telephone and online (optional). Participants can ask questions and share with others who are in similar situations. For more information about other upcoming tele-workshops or to view shortened recordings of past sessions go to www.alzheimerbc.org/We-CanHelp/Telephone-Workshops.aspx. For more information on Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias, which affect one in 11 Canadians over the age of 65, visit the Society website at www. alzheimerbc.org.

As you might expect, the 2.0L engine gets better fuel economy, but the difference is minimal and both can run on regular grade fuel. All the latest driver-assist technologies are available with MKC including, adaptive cruise control, a collision warning system, blind-sport alert, cross-traffic alert and park assist, with a unique new wrinkle... park-out assist. This added feature can now autonomously steer that MKC out of that tight parallel parking spot into which it put the MKC!

Question of the Week Bob McHugh in his review of the Lincoln MKC reveals there is a new technology called “park out assist” which gets your vehicle out of the tight parking sport that the “park assist” shoehorned you into! Is this kind of technology in danger of diminishing a driver’s control skills? Go to DrivewayCanada.ca to submit your answer. QUESTION

OF THE WEEK!

Safety Tip: As the summer BBQ season and Canada Day celebrations kick off, it’s important to remember how deadly of a combination drinking and driving can be. Arrange for a designated driver or use other options to get home safely.

They are Miata mates for life Stowe, Vermont – Despite the relatively early call time, a group of almost 100 Mazda Miata/MX-5 drivers/passengers gathers for the morning’s meeting. The weather is looking

favourable even though the a.m. envelops the crowd with its chilliness. It’s not raining though. That’s a good sign. Tour organizer and former Trillium Miata Club president, Gary Svoboda, talks about

the day’s journey, addresses some basic housekeeping rules, makes some jokes and engages in witty banter with a group of excited Miata enthusiasts. Everyone is ready to hit the

roads of Vermont in their tiny, drop top, two-doors. Everything from first generations Miatas, to the latest and greatest rear-wheel drive roadsters line the gravel parking lot of our home base, also

known as the Stowehof Inn. Stowe, VT’s claim to fame is as a ski destination. Currently, its claim to fame is the 46 Mazdas that drove in from Ontario and are congregating for their annual tour.

Each May long weekend, a group of club members look forward to the event. It’s been going for over 20 years and hasn’t disappointed. The crowd gets rowdier by the minute so go-time is just

Regardless of background, profession, or preference in exterior colour, few vehicles in the world bring people together as strongly as Mazda’s MX-5.

around the corner. The meeting wraps up; we branch into our respective groups and fire up the engines. As honorary members for the event, my co-pilot – aka my mother Zsuzsanna Straub – and I get behind the wheel of our MX-5. Within moments, we’re topless. The car. Not us! Seven vehicles comprise a group, including a leader and a sweeper. We’re comfortably nestled in the bosom of the pack. Our job is to enjoy ourselves, as well as give the MX-5 a little bit of room to romp free. It’s hard not to smile on the undulating roads of Vermont, which are lined with trees, houses, fields and topped off with a bovine scent! Then there is what is called “The Notch.” A mountain road where emaciated limbs of indigenous trees look like they’re reaching out and trying to touch the cars. Boulders are scattered and the path is paved around it. The intermittent obstacles would likely be the outcome of two Greek gods having a rock fight. You would have to have superhuman strength to move them. The sinuous and slender road is a hoot to drive through especially with no one in front of you. The occasional crackling on the CB radios frequently is overpowered by instructions from the leader. Like a mother duck summoning her young, we followed in order. We stuck together and took in some breathtaking scenery of New England. Scenery aside, what was the most interesting to breathe in was the enthusiasm and energy of the Miata owners. Liz Burns has “Miatatude” stickered across her windshield. Miata earrings dangle from her ears as she professes her love of her emerald beauty. Another owner decided to turn his conventional doors into ones that open up not out. At breakfast, lunch and dinner, they regale each other continued on page 37

The 2014 Honda Odyssey is ready to take you on your next big messy adventure with the kids and it can help you clean up too. The van features the world’s first in-car vacuum system called the HondaVac. It comes complete with a replaceable filter, canister bag, nozzle accessories, and a hose capable of reaching the front seats. I feel a family email coming on. My sister-in-law Cristina has an Odyssey van and has been transporting a full size shop vac and leaf blower around for years. My two nieces make quite a mess, unlike my tidy offspring. Just kidding. But before we get into an interior clean-up, let’s cast an eye over the vehicle’s exterior looks. It has a stylish hood that sweeps down towards the grille. The headlights are angled up and back giving the profile a sculpted look. Honda refers to the overall design as a lightning bolt. Not only does it provide an exclusive appearance, but also adds increased visibility for third row passengers. Very nice interior, everything laid out nicely. So many bells and whistles you almost would want to run through a checklist before driving. Eight-passenger seating with a total passenger volume of 4,887 litres, whatever, that means. And all those passengers get thirsty so Honda put in 15 cup holders. The third row is a onemotion 60/40 split ‘Magic’ seat that can accommodate three passengers and still leave 1,087 litres of cargo volume – that’s room for a lot of slushies for later in the journey. The second row is a 3 mode seating with fold down center console. Driver and front passenger seats are captain’s chairs that are very comfortable. My tester included a leather wrapped steering wheel with audio controls, channel selector, cruise control, and handsfree telephone button. The instrument panel is easier to read, thanks to a little tweaks by the engineers. Satellite-linked Navigation screen with trilingual voice recognition, 3D map and FM traffic is

also available that uses GPS technology and a 60GB hard drive based operating system that provides the driver with turn-by-turn voice guidance to their chosen destination. The screen also is used for the back-up camera that offers three different views, normal view, wide angle, and top down.

A $5 donation will not only get each person a delicious breakfast of pancakes, sausages and eggs, it also includes a fire hall and truck tour. Funds raised from this event will go toward the Chilliwack Fire Fighters’ $75,000 pledge to the new Burn Fund Centre to be built by the BC Professional Fire Fighters’ Burn Fund at in Vancouver.

ture their first installment of $30,000 toward their $75,000 donation goal. To date, Chilliwack firefighters have been joined by 26 other professional firefighter locals throughout the province for total firefighter contributions totaling just over $1.3 million. “We’ve seen firsthand that helping with accommodation for burn and trauma survivors and their families can be one of the most significant contributions to

help survivors physically and emotionally recover and live a full life,” says Mike Hurley, president of the Burn Fund. “We’re so grateful that the firefighters in Chilliwack have shown such leadership in helping us meet this critical need.” The province is experiencing a critical shortfall in accommodation for burn and trauma patients and their family caregivers, organizers say. Patients’ health may be compromised when they have

to return home sooner than medically advised or live in accommodations not suited to recovery from a burn or trauma. Each year almost 700 children and adults from across the province are admitted to the BCPFF Burn, Plastic and Trauma Unit at Vancouver General Hospital and BC Children’s Hospital suffering serious trauma. Cases from outside the Lower Mainland make up 27 per cent of cases, and 60 per cent of those are paying for private

sector accommodation for an average of eight weeks. The new $13.1 million Burn Fund Centre will provide eight shortterm stay units to meet the critical shortfall in appropriate accommodation for burn and trauma patients and their family caregivers. The Centre will also house the offices of the BC Professional Fire Fighters Association and Burn Fund and include ground floor retail space to help fund the ongoing operation

of the building. The Burn Fund has secured 85% of necessary funding and is currently in the midst of a capital campaign. “Nobody plans to be a burn survivor,” points out Lisa Lacamell, executive director of the Burn Fund, “but when it happens, your family’s life is turned inside out in a matter of seconds. With our contributions to research, patient care, survivor support and prevention we’re trying to give British Columbians their best

chance, the Burn Fund Centre is the missing piece of that legacy.” The BC Professional Fire Fighters’ Burn Fund has been providing prevention and survivor support programs, and funding medical care, training and research to the people of British Columbia and the Yukon for almost four decades. The Burn Fund’s vision is built by more than 3,800 professional fire fighters from fifty-three communities in British Columbia and the Yukon.

Shif i your focus Shifting f You need to spend more time thinking about what you’re doing, and less on how you’re going to do it, writes Jennifer Greggain In today’s column, Chilliwack Golf Academy instructor Jennifer Greggain talks about the importance of proper club selection.

Chiefs face Kings to start season

The Chilliwack Chiefs will open the 2014-15 BCHL season against the Powell River Kings. The schedule for the league’s Bauer BCHL

Showcase was released Wednesday. Chilliwack’s Prospera Centre is the host venue for a third straight year, with 16 teams playing 16 games over three days. Day one has Vernon versus Cowichan Valley, Salmon Arm versus Langley, Coquitlam versus West Kelowna and Penticton versus Surrey. The new look Chiefs get at it Sept. 20 at 7

p.m., taking on the Kings on Prospera’s main rink. Their second Showcase game is the next night, at 7 p.m. versus Merritt. Results from Showcase games count in the regular season standings. The first two Showcases drew strong attendance from both National Hockey League and NCAA scouts. “The Showcase has

proven to be a popular event for both people looking for talent and also our teams and players,” said BCHL communications director Brent Mutis. “The chance for scouts to see all players under one roof in one weekend is extremely valuable and the City of Chilliwack has been an ideal host for this event each of the last two years.” See bchl.ca for more info.

The annual Optimist Fred Wellsby Junior Divot Golf Tournament tees off next week, with the first of five rounds taking place Wednesday at Chilliwack’s Kinkora Golf Course. Open to golfers ages 15 and under, the tournament runs over two weeks at six local courses. After the opening round, golfers move on to Abbotsford’s Fraser Glen Golf Course on July 3. Round three is at Chilliwack’s Cheam Mountain Golf Course on July 7. Round four is at the Cultus Lake Golf Club on July 8 and round five is at Abbotsford’s Valley Golf Centre on July 9. The Championship Invitational is July 10 at a course to be announced.

Over the last few years, there has been a lot of research done on ‘peak performance’ and the ideal mental state when performing a skill in all sports. This research has stated that players, when playing their best, are focusing externally rather than internally. This means that to achieve peak performance on the golf course, players should shift their focus to things such as their target and intended shot shape, and away from technical thoughts such as their swing plane and body movements. To describe this focus shift to students, I explain that when on the golf course, you need to spend more time thinking about ‘what’ yyou’re ou’re going to do, and less on ‘how’ you’re going to do it. There is a time and place to focus on swing technique and making swing changes. But on the golf course is not the time to do it. I learned this the hard way myself. I was not on the LPGA Tour at the time, but qualified for the 2004 US Women’s Open. Immediately after the qualifier I started playing poorly. I had three weeks to prepare for The Open, but the more I tried, the worse I played. So I did what most players do when w hen they play poorly, I turned to desperation. I spent hours on the range trying to find a swing that I could trust. I tried every swing thought I had ever used but couldn’t find anything that produced good shots. Although I was excited to play in the Open, I was terrified about playing badly. It got so bad that during the practice round at the US Open site, I shanked a ball into the grand stand. I was mortified to say the least. I will never forget what hap-

pened next. The night before the first round I decided to clear my y head of everything, and focus simply on my target for everyy shot. I gave up trying to control my swing. I had never truly done this before in a tournament. It was a huge risk. I already felt like myy swing was out of my control as I was playing badly, but to then give up control and trust my swing? Needless to say, it was a veryy difficult thing to do. I went on to play one of the bestt tournaments I had every played up to that point in my career. I made my first cut in an LPGA A event as a qualifier, then did the same the following week at the Canadian Women’s Open. Then for the first time in myy career I made it through Q-school to earn my first year of LPGA A status. Out of everything I have everyy learned about golf, that nightt before the US Women’s Open was one of the most clarifying moments in my career. I had experienced the shift away from focusing internally on technical thoughts, and shifted my focus externally to my target and trusting my swing. Does this mean you should never work on improving yourr swing? Absolutely not. But when I playing a round on the course, no matter what you are currently trying to change in your swing, put it in your back k pocket for those 18 holes and trust your swing.

Howse hoping for career revival

Former Chilliwack Bruin Ryan Howse will play hockey again this fall, a year after he walked away from the game. The Prince George native has signed with the Stockton Thunder of the ECHL, a minor-pro circuit. Howse, a former third round draft pick of the National Hockey Leagueâ€™s Calgar y Flames, last played during the 2012-13 season. He split 40 games between the ECHLâ€™s Utah Grizzlies and American Hockey Leagueâ€™s Abbotsford Heat, then didnâ€™t show up for Calgaryâ€™s rookie fitness testing and physicals. He told the team his

heart wasnâ€™t into hockey, and the Flames released him. Signing with Stockton gives Howse the chance to revive his career playing alongside a couple of old rivals. When he played for Chilliwack, Howse often clashed with Vancouver Giants Garet Hunt and James Henry. Both are with the Thunder, and in fact Hunt captains the team. Once upon a time, Howse was Chilliwackâ€™s first ever bantam draft pick and enjoyed a spectacular Western Hockey League career. In 262 games he sniped 140 goals. But he has only eight goals and 19 points in 79 minor pro games.

In better days, Ryan Howse scored a lot of goals with the Western Hockey Leagueâ€™s Chilliwack Bruins. Now, heâ€™s trying to resurrect his career in the ECHL. JENNA HAUCK/ PROGRESS FILE

Ball-hockey fundraiser in Hope Barry Stewart, Black Press

Popular former Chilliwack Bruin Cody Smuk was diagnosed with cancer in mid-May and is now undergoing chemotherapy treatments in his home province of Saskatchewan. JENNA HAUCK/ PROGRESS FILE

Tough times for ex-Bruin Former Chilliwack Bruin Cody Smuk is facing a battle tougher than any he ever had on the ice. Smuk was diagnosed with testicular cancer in mid-May and since then a tumour has been found in his lung. He started chemotherapy treatments June 16. To help offset the cost of treatment, which includes not being able

to work over the summer, a fund-raising page has been set up at www. gofundme.com/codysmuk Smuk was a gritty bottom-six type for the Bruins who played 132 regular season games for the franchise. Fans will best remember the Saskatoon native for a one-punch demolition of Kyle Beach during a game between Smuk’s Bruins

and Beach’s Everett Silvertips. Smuk went on to play for the Lethbridge Hurricanes and Moose Jaw Hurricanes, then spent four years with the University of Saskatchewan Huskies.

Kevin Misumi went to the University of British Columbia for his first year of science studies — and came back with an idea for a charity fundraiser. He’s hoping it will be the first of many ALS charity ball hockey tournaments in Hope. “At UBC, one of the students organized a ball hockey tournament for a different cause,” Misumi said. “I thought I could do the same in Hope.” Misumi is working on pipeline maintenance this summer but has used his spare time to bring together eight teams for the event, which will run throughout the day on Saturday, at the Memorial Park sport court. He also has pulled together an impressive number of local sponsors who have given cash, such as Nestlé Waters, McDonalds and Panago, or supplied prizes for raffles, such as Kimchi restaurant and Valley Helicopters. “The community has really been good,” said the Hope secondary 2013 grad. “Buy & Save is donating hot

dogs and condiments for the event and the rec centre is letting us use the hockey nets, tables and hopefully the (portable) scoreboard,” said Misumi. “And Envision is lending us their tent for the day.” He anticipates more donations to come in from the business community to help with the barbecue and raffle draw. Players pay a $10 entry fee for the three-game guarantee tournament that will kick off at 10 a.m. and close at around 7 p.m. with a championship match between the top teams from the A and B sides. Throughout the day, barbecue and beverage sales will generate further funds for the cause, with proceeds going to ALS Canada. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, often known as “Lou Gehrig’s disease,” is a debilitating degenerative disease of the nervous system that slowly kills the affected person. Misumi has known two Hope residents that succumbed to ALS. “I decided to organize this event specifically for Janice Carrat and Ronald Young,” he said. “Janice was one of my mom’s good friends, so I saw

her quite a bit, growing up. She was always there to point me in the right direction and give me a reality check when I needed one.” Carrat passed away in 2009 at the age of 53. Her sister Shari is donating the banner for the event, which will be attached to the court fencing. “Ron was the middle brother of Randy, Darren, Tim and Dave Young,” said Misumi. “When I started working at Canyon Shell in 2012, he’d always stop in and he’d come and see my hockey games. Although I had only known him a few short years, he proved to me how much better a good laugh could make you feel.” “The disease progressed really quickly for him,” added Misumi. Young died in August of 2013. Like Carrat, he was only 53 years old. Young’s brother Randy is supplying all of the team T-shirts for the tournament, which will be officiated by Blake Deschenes of Hope and Austin MacGregor of Chilliwack. The public is welcome to come and add their community spirit to the event.

5-09F CF1

Chilliwack’s Brad Clapp struggled in his third PGA Tour Canada tournament, missing the cut at the Syncrude Boreal Open. The tourney was held last weekend in Fort McMurray, AB. Clapp had an up-anddown opening round

that included birdies on the fifth, eighth, 10th and 16th holes. But he bogied the second, sixth and ninth holes and had a disastrous 15th, carding a six on the par three hole. Clapp finished round one with a two-over-par 74 and his struggles

worsened on day two. Clapp bogied five of the first nine holes, ending the day with a fiveover-par 77. His two day total of 151 was well off the cut-line of 143, leaving him on the outside for rounds three and four. American Joel

Dahmen won the tournament and the $27,000 first place prize. The next tour stop is the SIGA Dakota Dunes Open, running July 3-6 at the Dakota Dunes Golf Links in Saskatoon. Get info at pgatour. com/canada/en_ us.html

OBITUARIES

Celebrating Lives With Dignity Frail Elizabeth, May (Betty) 1923-2014

Elizabeth Frail (nee Spry) passed away peacefully at Heritage Village, June 3, 2014 at the age of 91. She was born in Three Rivers, Quebec to English immigrant parents but grew up in Montreal. She there met a young soldier, John Frail, whom she married in 1947. An Armed Forces family, they lived in Montreal, Nova Scotia, and Ottawa. After retirement they sold real estate for ten years in Ottawa. For the following decade they spent winters in Florida. While in Ontario and the Maritimes they built family cottages where they spent time canoeing and enjoying the quiet of nature. They moved to Chilliwack from Ottawa ten years ago. Both Betty and John were active in church activities, as well as biking, skating, and walking. Both were avid readers. Betty and John were married 66 years when John passed away in 2013, also at age 91. They had raised 4 children Ken (Janice), Diane (Ken), Gary (Danielle) and James (Elizabeth), 8 grandchildren and 6 great- grandchildren. They were often referred to as a couple ‘Betty and John’. It was decided most appropriate to have a joint memorial service and burial in Centreville, Nova Scotia in the beautiful Annapolis valley that they so loved. The date for this service is to be decided. The family wishes to extend their thanks for the thoughtful care she received from the staff of the Rosedale neighbourhood of Heritage.

KEEN Ralph Darby Ralph Darby Keen passed away June 18, 2014 in Chilliwack, BC after a long battle with Parkinson’s Disease. Ralph will be dearly missed by Mary Keen, his wife of 61 years, daughters – Sukoshi Fahey, Sherri Bellah, and Brenda Keen and husband Ryan Anderson, along with grandson Jeremy Fahey and wife Melissa, granddaughters Tamara and Tania Straiton, and great grandchildren Jordan and Justine Fahey, Kado Straiton and Ralph’s sister, Sharon Keen. His brother, Raymond Keen, passed away several years before. November 10, 1931, Catherine and Dennis Keen welcomed their first son, Ralph Darby, into the world. Ralph grew up in Jasper and graduated from Jasper High with honors. He attended Royal Military College where he forged many lifelong friends. Mary Driver caught his eye and as soon as he graduated, they were married in the little white church in the Rockies. Ralph joined the Royal Canadian Engineers in 1953 and was posted to Korea for a year. In 1955 Ralph graduated with a Civil engineering degree from UBC. The next 25 years of military career took Ralph and family on a series of postings across Canada, Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. During his Kenyan assignment Ralph climbed to the top of Mt. Kilimanjaro. Retiring from the military in 1980 the family moved to various locations in BC and settled in Chilliwack where Ralph worked for the District of Chilliwack until retirement in 1996. Over the years Ralph indulged in favourite pastimes – fly fishing, squash, karate, and serving the communities in many volunteer roles. His love of a good joke and his dry sense of humour made him beloved by family and friends. Ralph lived his life with truth, duty, and valour. A celebration of his life will be held later in July.
