School district warns of trips

Four-year sentencefor fatal beating

Robert FREEMAN Black Press

Daniel Casgrain of Abbotsford was handcuffed and led out of court Thursday to begin a four-year prison term in connection with the 2008 beating death of his common-law spouse Hendrikje (Ricky) Priester.

But for tearful family and friends, who watched Casgrain’s every move until he was out of the courtroom, it was not enough.

“He should do way more time,” Priester’s sister Lucy said, after the sentencing in B.C. Supreme Court in Chilliwack. “The family has been under duress for four years – and that’s all he gets?”

Initially charged with murder after Priester’s death on March 24, 2008, Crown counsel reduced the charge to manslaughter on the evidence, and then Casgrain pleaded guilty to the lesser charge of aggravated assault.

Justice Catherine Bruce said in her sentencing Thursday that although Priester suffered four broken ribs and numerous abrasions and contu-sions during a drunken argument with Casgrain, there was no evidence the injuries directly caused the 52-year-old woman’s death.

However, Bruce said that Casgrain, 57, a chronic alcoholic, was aware of Priester’s “weakened condition” due to a heart condition yet continued beating her after she lost conscious-ness, showing a “callous disregard” for the woman he had lived with for four years.

The court previously heard that Casgrain repeatedly kicked Priester. He left her bleeding on the kitchen floor, and paramedics were not called until he telephoned family members the next morning.

“He could have saved her life,” Bruce said. “She didn’t deserve to die in such a brutal way.”

But the justice said she was bound by sentencing principles and case law to deliver a decision similar to others and proportionate to the offence.

Sentences for aggravated assault range from house arrest to six years, although the maximum for the offence is 14 years.

Bruce said the mitigating factors in Casgain’s case were his full con-fession to the police, his open apol-ogy to the family and the remorse he showed in his statement that “he would not have done this if he had been sober.”

But Bruce added that drunken-ness was also an aggravating factor because Casgrain should have known its effect on his temper, and Priester’s “helpless” state at the time and her reliance upon him.

Casgrain’s criminal record includes an earlier assault conviction in 1996, and 10 impaired driving charges, the last one in 2004.

The Abbotsford school district is warning par-ents of high school kids to be wary of non-sanc-tioned excursions being marketed to students.

Dave Stephen, the district’s manager of com-munications, said that every year around this time, businesses promote trips that take place during holiday times and weekends.

He said the trips are advertised as being “overseen (by company personnel) that includes Canadian high school teachers,” but Abbotsford school district staff are not officially part of these vacations.

The concern is the safety of the participating teens and whether they are properly monitored on the trip.

Stephen said another concern is the marketing approach which centres on recruiting a few Grade 11 and 12 students at each school to organize and sign up other

students.The school district first expressed concerns

about these excursions in 2010, when a group of students, including several from Abbotsford, travelled to the Dominican Republic over spring break. Guests at a hotel in which they were stay-ing reported that some of the kids were drinking alcohol and damaging property.

Any trip sanctioned by the school district requires approval from the board of education and follows a strict set of guidelines, including a

code of conduct and supervision levels.These trips also require parental permission forms to

be signed and information to be provided by the school. Stephen said parents who have concerns or questions

are welcome to contact their school administrators or district administration.

The family of Ricky Priester gathered outside of B.C. Supreme Court in Chilliwack at a previous court appearance for Daniel Casgrain. From left are Lucy Fairhurst and her husband Garrett; Priester’s mom, Ria Vanbaar; and Priester’s daughter, Diane Priester, holding a photo of her mom.

‘It’s been home’Neil CORBETTAbbotsford News

Malcolm Cleaves is 80 years old, but he will start looking for a new home in Kamloops or Penticton, rather than move into a “micro-apartment” to be built near Jubilee Park.

He’s among 41 Abbotsford seniors who will be losing their housing on Lynn Avenue, and many aren’t interested in the new low-income facility being built for them downtown on Braun Avenue, featuring 300-square-foot liv-ing quarters.

“I won’t stay with them. I’ll go someplace else,” he said.

The housing in the 33000 block of Lynn was originally built by Abbotsford Legion members in the 1950s for people like Cleaves – veterans with limited resources. The homes are duplexes and row houses. The suites are leased and maintained by the non-profit Lynnhaven Society. Over the past 60 years, as the number of veterans dwindled, the society’s mandate has adapted to include all low-income seniors.

Cleaves, an air force veteran, has lived at his modest unit for some 25 years.

“I lived in an apartment in Toronto, and I hated it,” he asserts. “I like a country-ish atmosphere, like it was when we came here.”

He said the new micro-apartments, with built-in furnishings, will not permit him to bring his own furniture, except for perhaps a few pieces.

“You’d probably get away with a chair and a milking stool. And that’s about it.”

Cleaves said much is being made about the

convenience of the micro-apartments, being close to downtown. He has had cancer treat-ment for his eye, and needs kidney dialysis twice a week. Lynnhaven’s walking distance to the hospital is more convenient for him.

But Cleaves doesn’t want a new apartment. He just wants a new roof. His unit has leaked for the past nine years.

“It’s been home,” he says of Lynnhaven. “I would stay here until I die.

“There comes a point in time when you should have a choice.”

His friend, Jean MacFarlane, has lived across the street from since the units were first built. The seniors were like grandparents to her children, she said. They sit together having coffee, putter in their small gardens, and take walks in the neighbourhood. They regularly check on each other, and she does the same.

She feels they are giving up a decent lifestyle for tiny apartment living in a less than desir-able area of downtown Abbotsford.

Although she won’t be moving there, she attended information meetings about the new micro-apartment project, along with her neighbours. She said some of them got emo-tional.

“They have said they won’t walk there (downtown),” she said. “They don’t feel safe.

“What they’re losing is heartbreaking.”Don Walsh has only been at the Lynn Avenue

housing for going on two years, but he is already attached.

“I got comfortable in here almost immedi-ately. We’re a little community in here.”

Don Walsh doesn’t want to leave his unit on Lynn Avenue to move into a micro-apartment that will not accom-modate his furniture, and says that is the common sentiment at the seniors’ community.

NEIL CORBETT Abbotsford News

Aging facility poses difficult situation for residents and Lynnhaven Society

Continued on A7


Developer hoping to set good precedentHe has a little larger unit. Originally

designed for a couple, he can fit his plush leather couch and chair inside the living room, in front of a big-screen television.

“I was told by the owners that they would be taking me out in a box – I would never have to look for another place to live.”

Walsh has Parkinson’s disease, and had a spinal fusion that gives him severe pain. He has bad falls. He said mov-ing into Lynnhaven taxed his limited financial and physical resources, and he doesn’t want to have to do it again. He talks to other residents who feel the same way.

“There are people in these places that just can’t move,” he asserts. “It’s unfair. Not a person in here wants to move.”

He too, feels that the buildings can be repaired, needing mainly new roofing and eavestroughs.

However, the plan is to be gone in 18 to 24 months.

With or without a micro-apartment development to replace them, the Lynnhaven Society’s aging units are only years away from being reduced to teardowns, in the opinion of the soci-ety’s administrator and the developer who has partnered with the society.

Leona Watts, secretary-manager, said the buildings were constructed eco-nomically, with minimal insulation, single-pane windows, and utilitarian building materials. Heating costs alone

are $30,000 per year for the 40 units, she said.

The 50-plus-year-old buildings need major work, including new windows, roofing, plumbing and electrical upgrades.

“How do you keep up with that, when you have 40 units and your average rent is $400 per month?”

The society’s plan is to swap its 2.5-hectare site on Lynn for the new Braun Avenue property and a down payment on two four-storey micro-suite buildings. They will carry a mortgage, paid by monthly rents limited to no more than $480.

The new buildings will offer a total of 64 apartments, for those aged 55 and older.

“Micro” may be an unattractive word for living accommodations, but the developer says the units are popular in Europe, and a similar development has been tried in Victoria.

David Algra, of Algra Brothers Developments, is a local builder who has recently been involved in the Garrison Crossing subdivision in Chilliwack. He has partnered with Lynnhaven on the $6.4-million project. He sees it as an innovative solution to housing low-income baby boomers.

“We’re going to run into a big issuehousing seniors in the next 10 to 15years,” Algra predicts.

He said Canada Mortgage and Housingand other government agencies arewatching this project.

“I hope we can set a good precedent.”His company has researched how to

maximize the 300 square feet of livingspace, with built-in furniture, two-burn-er stoves, narrower fridges and gener-ally smaller appliances. Algra said hisfloor plan will “live like” a 450-square-foot apartment.

Each of the units will be air con-ditioned, and contain laundry and adishwasher – amenities the residentsdon’t currently have.

There will be four large outside “liv-ing areas” for socializing, and raisedgardens. Each unit will also have acovered deck.

He hopes to begin construction in thisspring, pending city approval.

Looking at the aging units on LynnAvenue, with their dirt crawl spaces andleaking roofs, Algra said they do nothave a lot of life left in them.

“You have to modernize at some pointin time.”

Watts agrees.“If we do not do this, I will guess in

two to five years we will cease to exist.”She is already seeing the demand for

affordable seniors’ housing, and looksforward to getting rid of her year-longwaiting list.

“How do you tell a senior who is lowincome that they have to wait a year fora place?”

From A5

A concept image of one of the two 32-unit micro-suite buildings that will be built by the Lynnhaven Society in downtown Abbotsford.

When A.A. Murray started selling cars in 1926, gas-powered engines were making headway over steam-powered, and the Ford Model T was con-sidered the rst affordable American car.

Eighty- ve years later, much has changed for the Murray Auto Group, which has a branch in Abbotsford. But the commitment to fam-ily, integrity and quality has remained the same.

"There's lots of tradition, we're steeped in 85 years of history," says Rob Taylor of Murray Abbotsford. "At the same time, it's a fairly progressive group. We're al-

ways looking for new ideas, new products."

The original family is still part of the company, which has expanded from one location in Manitoba to more than 20 across the country. At recent meetings, A.A. Murray’s son Clair, who is now in his 80’s, was in attendance. Clair has four sons who are also active in the business.

Coincidental to this months’ 85th Anniver-sary celebrations, General Motors is launching two exciting new products - the Chevy Sonic and the Chevy Orlando. During the month of October, there will be special events around the

dealership as well as a group wide challenge to col-lectively sell 1,926 vehicles.

"So far, so good," says Taylor about the goal. "It's fairly competitive amongst the branches," adding the Abbotsford location is hold-ing its own in the challenge.

Murray GM's history in Abbotsford goes back to 2003, when the company bought the Hall Pontiac dealership on South Fraser Way. They expanded to their second location in the Ab-botsford Motorcade in 2007, merged the two operations together shortly after and have been in the Fraser Val-ley Automall ever since.

At the local dealership,

there are more than 80 staff members, ranging from high school students working part-time to sales consul-tants like Carl Bracewell, who has been selling cars in Abbotsford for more than 20 years.

The Murray Auto Group had been exclusive to Gen-

eral Motors until recently adding other manufacturer’s brands to the group. In Abbotsford they sell a wide range of vehicles with the highest volume coming from the popular Chevy Cruze and Chevy Equinox. The Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra are also a very

important part of the portfo-lio here in the Fraser Valley. And at Murray Abbotsford, trucks are a "very popular" choice for buyers, Taylor states. For more informa-tion on the new vehicles, or to check out the sales, head into Murray Abbotsford this month.

Murray GM celebrates 85 years

QUESTION OF THE WEEK

LAST WEEK, WE ASKED:

Do you feel adequately informed for the upcoming referendum on a P3

partnership for a new water supply?

Do you approve of the city dismantling homeless camps and referring occupants to services?

To answer, go to abbynews.com

173 RESPONDED:

Wake up and smell the water

Taking the temperature of voters and consumers is a highly refi ned science, if not a bit of an art, as well, due to the cre-ativity put into the information provided to the respondents, and the questions they’re asked.

The recent Angus Reid poll of 300 ran-domly chosen Abbotsford residents in regard to the upcoming P3 water project referendum is a case in point.

The survey was commissioned by the City of Abbotsford, ostensibly to plumb the depths of the public’s awareness and perception of what is a major civic issue.

It involves a mountain of tax dollars, and the complex question of private enterprise involvement in delivering such a crucial public service as water.

Interestingly, respondents were asked their opinion of a public/private part-nership not once, but three times.

Each question was preceded by a dif-

ferent information preamble, the fi rst stressing the transfer of construction risk to a private company, and the city’s retention of ownership and control over the water licence and infrastructure.

Combining “strongly” and “moder-ately agree,” the question garnered 62 per cent in favour of a P3 deal.

However, the second related question, which asked respondents how they would vote in a referendum that would allow the city to borrow up to $300 mil-lion over 25 years to develop Stave Lake as a new water source, and whether that should involve a public-private partner, received only 45 per cent favourable response.

Almost identical results were obtained for a third question, this time stressing that without a P3 arrangement, there would be water rate increases (men-tioned twice) and more water restric-tions and bans.

Despite the dire tone, the favourable responses hardly budged – only 47 per cent in support of a public-private part-nership.

The city interprets that to mean people are less concerned about money and more concerned about the availability of water.

I’m not sure I see it that way.Tell people the private sector will take

the risk, and the city maintains control, and private-public partnership doesn’t sound too bad at all.

Ask them if they approve spending up to $300 million, and support drops precipi-

tously, and it doesn’t get much better if you hold up the possibility of higher water rates.

That’s the problem with polls. They are often open to a wide range of interpreta-tion.

However, two things become rather apparent from this survey.

The city has a major marketing job to convince the public that the P3 approach is the way to go for a new water source. And you may well question whether the

city ought to be promoting one option over another at all.

But the mayor and council (with the exception of Coun. Patricia Ross) have made no secret that they consider $61 mil-lion in federal P3 funding to be attractive.

Hence, the city’s announcement of a $200,000 “education” campaign earlier this week.

The second factor that can be taken fromthe poll is the level of public awareness on this issue, which is very low. Despite extensive media coverage, only eight per cent of the respondents said they followed it closely. Another 33 per cent answered moderately closely.

That’s appalling, considering the huge amount of money involved, and the key public-versus-private debate.

I have to wonder, given the apparent high public interest and engagement in theannual deficit of the city-supported AHL Heat team, how much higher the aware-ness level of that issue would have been over the water questions, if compared by the pollsters.

Folks, if you’re amped up about spend-ing $1.3 million on hockey, you ought to be mighty interested in investing a few hundred million bucks for water.

YES: 87% NO: 13%

WebTalk

No private company should be in charge of our water. Nowhere in Canada is this the case. Why

Abbotsford? Maybe we should turn over all of our municipal responsibilities to a private company and

do away with politicians.

Kelly Foster

None of the comments here seem to be constructive, nor do they directly address the issue.

All I see is a lot of name-calling and ideological hate. I’m genuinely curious as to what is so bad about

this project, but not interested in just hearing that it’s bad over and over again, and this is just another

example of politicians screwing over the public, etc. Frank Pizzuto has stated: “At no point would a

private partner have any ability to set water rates or water standards, or sell any of our water. The City

of Abbotsford will always retain control over rates and water quality.”

If this is the case what is the issue?

Doing the P3 project mathSo do the math – as

only Abbotsford coun-cil can.

The Stave Lake proj-ect in the city’s Master Water Plan was to cost $209 million for a 200 million litre per day (MLD) plant.

Now, after consul-tants have laboured and charged hard for 18 months, there are two costs: $315 mil-lion for the traditional construction, and $291 million for the P3 construction for a 100 MLD plant. Both of the revised estimates would make this project more costly than others considered in the city’s plan.

It appears that P3 con-tractors are smarter and more efficient than traditional contractors. However, there is a problem. Comparisons have shown that the operational cost for the P3 project are $1 mil-lion per year higher than the owner oper-ated project.

Must be time to do an economic analysis and comparison and come up with a pres-ent value. Let’s project a $62-million grant for the P3 project. Now press the enter key, and lo and behold, the P3 project is the winner.

Looks very nice for the Abbotsford tax-payer, but guess where the $62 million is com-ing from? Right again, it comes from your federal tax pocket, but fortunately it is shared with a lot more people, so that should be easy to sell.

The city has embarked on its program to sell the Stave Lake water supply project to its citizens, and it did it

in fine style. First, a media event at one of the local greenhouses where the proponents, along with their group of a dozen paid young cheerleaders, tried to make the case that agriculture, as indeed the entire community, needs the water since we are quickly running out and there will be a shortage in just a few short years.

The problem with this argument is that very few agricultural operations actually use the city’s treated water because it is too costly, and secondly we are not running out of water. The city’s wells are producing more water than they did several years ago, and Norrish Creek and Cannell Lake are producing as much water as always.

The only way the pres-ent population could run out of water is if we ran out of rainfall – droughts are possible, but it is not likely that the Fraser Valley will turn into a desert.

Next up, the city decided to prepare the kickoff to its public relations campaign during a bylaw reading at a committee meeting of council to ensure the public can view, but not participate, in the debate. Indeed, one of the councillors commented that they have been elected by the public, and there-fore should be blindly trusted to make the $300 million decision on their own.

There are alterna-tives for the city’s future water supply which would cost the taxpayers less than a Stave Lake P3 project.

Abbotsord and Mission will not run out of water and the sky will not stop delivering rainfall if the vot-ers reject this thinly disguised bid, aided

by all three levels of government, to benefit not the local taxpayers, but large multinational P3 corporations.

Bacon drug trial beginsVikki HOPESAbbotsford News

The conspiracy trial of Jarrod Bacon and co-accused Wayne Scott began Wednesday in B.C. Supreme Court in Vancouver, but evidence will not be presented until at least next week.

In the meantime, lawyers from both sides are arguing over legal issues, including whether certain wiretap evidence obtained by police should be admissible.

Bacon and Scott have each been charged with one count of conspiracy to traffic in a controlled substance stemming from an undercover police sting, called E-Pintle, that targeted members of the Red Scorpions and UN gangs.

Police allege that Bacon, 28, and Scott, in his 50s, were working with the Red Scorpions at the time of their arrests in November 2009.

E-Pintle involved a team of undercover offi-cers posing as criminals who could import $3million of cocaine from Mexico to the LowerMainland. Police allege the two gangs eachdeposited $100,000 with the undercover opera-tors in exchange for bringing in 100 kilogramsof cocaine.

Bacon and Scott were arrested in Abbotsford,as were alleged UN Gang members NicholasChristopher Wester, 32, and Daryl RobertJohnson, 33.

Douglas Edward Vanalstine, 51, who policesaid was the UN leader at the time, was arrestedin the Okanagan.

The trial for Wester, Johnson and Vanalstine– all charged with conspiracy and possessionfor the purpose of trafficking – is scheduled tobegin June 11, 2012 in Vancouver.

‘Man purse’ filled with cocaineVikki HOPESAbbotsford News

A “man purse” filled with cocaine resulted in Abbotsford Police, with assistance from Port Mann Highway Patrol, arresting a 37-year-old Coquitlam man on Tuesday night.

Const . Ian

MacDonald said a Honda Accord in west Abbotsford caught the attention of plainclothes officers with the Abbotsford Police’s drug enforce-ment unit, and they began following the vehicle as it entered Highway 1 and headed west.

The Abbotsford

officers then noti-fied RCMP to assist with pulling over the vehicle. Port Mann Highway Patrol responded, and offi-cers from both juris-dictions stopped the car on Highway 1 near 152 Street in Surrey at about 5:45 p.m.

As the driver exited the vehicle, the satchel

that was on his lap fellto the ground. It con-tained almost a poundand a half of cocaine,MacDonald said.

The man was arrest-ed and is expected toappear in Abbotsfordprovincial court today(Wednesday) to facecharges of possessionfor the the purposesof trafficking. Hisname has not yet beenreleased.

MacDonald saidpolice are continu-ing to investigate theman’s backgroundand any criminalconnections he mighthave.

Make a difference for farm animals in OctoberMahatma Gandhi’s

birthday on Oct. 2 is observed by coun-tries around the globe as World Farm Animals Day.

In honour of the man who promoted peace, harmony and the humane treat-ment of all living things, World Farm Animals Day is a time for us to reflect on how we treat the animals with whom we share our planet.

To mark this occa-sion, the BC SPCA urges individuals to take action this month to help im-prove the lives of the millions of farm animals raised in Canada each year:

Choose SPCA Certified products.

Not only are you taking the animals’ well-being into con-sideration, you are supporting local farmers who make animal welfare a pri-

ority. A product with an SPCA Certified label comes from a farm that follows wel-fare standards set out by the BC SPCA and is assessed by a third-p a r t y i n s p e c -tor. More than two m i l l i o n f a r m a n i m a l s have been raised ac-c o r d i n g to SPCA Certified s t a n -d a r d s since the program’s launch in 2002. A list of SPCA Certified producers and retailers is avail-able at spcacertified.ca;

Buy cage-free eggs – ideally SPCA Certified.

Types of cage-free eggs include certified organic, free run and free range. Download

the SPCA’s fact-sheet on hen-laying eggs to learn more about how hens are raised in Canada;

Request humane products.

If your l o c a l g r o c e r d o e s n ’ t c u r r e n t -ly stock S P C A Certified products, download a custom-er request form (sp-c a c e r t i -f i e d . c a )

to give to the store’s manager;

Sign up for FarmSense.

The BC SPCA’s bi-monthly email news-letter about farm animal welfare news, events and research;

Help us speak for the animals

Add your voice to one or more of the

SPCA’s farm animal campaigns;

Support farm ani-mal welfare initia-tives. The BC SPCA is the only SPCA in Canada with a depart-ment specializing in farm animal welfare and is a national leader in programs that promote better lives for millions of farm animals. Your support can help us save lives.

October is also the month when witches, ghosts and goblins make an appearance at your door.

While Halloween is fun for trick or treat-ers, the constant ring-ing of the doorbell, the unfamiliar sight of strangers in cos-tume and loud noises from fireworks can be extremely stress-ful for many pets.

Be sure to keep your pets inside, prefer-ably in a quiet room as far away from the

front door as possible and check to make sure that your pet’s identification is up to date in the event that they become spooked and some-how escape.

Also, be sure to keep candy away from your pets, es-pecially chocolate, which contains theo-bromine, an ingredi-ent which is toxic to dogs and cats.

Spring never came and Summer was late

When it arrived the weather was great

Sweet summer corn and time at the lake

Now thoughts are turning to a Turkey bake

The great bird is roasting, the smell is divine

While Dad and his brothers sample the wine

Mouths are all watering as dinner draws near

What is truly important becomes very clear

Not shopping, not food, not football and beer

It’s friends and family and those we hold dear

To our Families, Friends and Clients

Happy Thanksgiving!

T ucked away on Montvue Avenue, Creekside Country Home Décor is a

whimsical pearl of a store that shouldn’t be missed when strolling through Down-town Abbotsford: the ambiance, the smell of candles and handmade soaps, the sight of fanciful objects for every room of your house, and the feeling that you are in a meticulously decorated cottage home. Off in the corner, you will fi nd the fl ower cooler belonging to Sweetnothings Floral Design. It is fi lled with the most amazing arrange-ments you will ever set your eyes upon; several of which are cupcakes. That’s right, cupcakes in the fl ower cooler. Not edible, rather they are made entirely out of fl owers, and are labeled “Flower Cup-cakes by Sweetnothings Floral Design”. Julie Swanberg, the creator, says, “If there’s anyone to blame for this girl loving blooms...it would have to be my Dad. He’s been putting little bouquets of fl owers into my hands for as long as I can remember.”Her fi rst job, at 15, was sweeping fl oors and cutting stems in a fl oral shop. Later, she worked and trained in Whistler Village for 10 years with designers from all over the world. She was in her glory; working with people at the most signifi cant mo-ments in their lives. After a hiatus to raise her children, Julie and her family moved to Abbotsford where Julie found the doors for a new venture begin to open. Grocery shopping one day, she saw the cute little cupcake papers that now adorn her Flow-er Cupcakes. The talent buried for years by diapers and kids’ homework quickly emerged…she had an idea!Julie is determined to maintain prices that allow everyone the ability to give the gift of fl owers. She uses local growers and is unwavering in her unique and personal approach to fl oral design. That is evident not only in her beautiful cupcakes but in everything in that fl ower cooler in Creek-side Country Home Décor. The next time you need fl owers, or you are looking to brighten someone’s day with a dash of sunshine, you won’t fi nd any more unique and affordable fl owers in the Lower Main-land than those by Sweetnothings Floral Design in Downtown Abbotsford.

Municipal spending growth tracked

Tom FLETCHERBlack Press

VANCOUVER – With municipal elec-tions approaching in November, B.C. business groups are renewing their pres-sure on contenders to

slow the rapid growth of local government spending.

The Canadian Federation of Independent Business has asked mayors and councillors attend-ing the Union of B.C.

Municipalities conven-tion to sign a “taxpayer pledge” that calls on them to hold operat-ing expense growth down to the combined increase in population and inflation, and nar-row the gap between property tax rates for business and residen-tial properties.

The CFIB calculates that B.C.’s municipal operating spending rose nearly 58 per cent between 2000 and 2008, twice as fast as popu-lation and inflation grew.

Sechelt Mayor Darren Inkster signed the taxpayer pledge Wednesday, as did Port Moody councillor Diana Dilworth and Coquitlam council-lor Linda Reimer. Coquitlam council can-didates Terry O’Neill and Andy Shen also stepped up, along with Vancouver mayoral candidate Suzanne Anton and three con-tenders for Vancouver council seats.

Shachi Kurl, theB.C. director of theCFIB, said the initialresponse is good, con-sidering her groupwas told not a singleincumbent wouldpublicly support thepledge. She’s hopingcandidates for munici-pal office will carrythe taxpayer pledgemessage into theircampaigns.

The UBCM executiveissued its own analysisthis spring, rebuttingseveral years of CFIBclaims that municipalspending is out ofcontrol. The UBCManalysis points to ris-ing police, firefightingand recreation costs, aswell as those imposedby senior governmentssuch as paying for car-bon offsets.

Colwood Mayor DaveSaunders also signedthe pledge, althoughhe isn’t seeking re-election. He said thetax targets are similarto what his councilhas accomplished bythis year, and he wouldhave signed the pledgeif he was running inNovember.

Unionized munici-pal workers have tolook at the state ofthe economy and seeif their wage demandsare holding back thegrowth of their com-munity’s business taxbase, Saunders said inan interview.

“The private sectorcan’t expect a cost ofliving pay increaseevery year, so I don’tthink it’s fair in rela-tion to union or pri-vate to say one’s goingto get it but not theother,” he said.

Joining the CFIB inthis year’s push forspending restraintis the IndependentContractors andBusiness Association.The ICBA produceda report detailing asimilarly steep risein municipal fees forconstruction, linkingit to union contractsthat feature pay andperks well beyond theprivate sector averageof recent years.

ICBA presidentPhil Hochstein said“gold plated” unioncontracts with wageincreases beyond infla-tion and benefits suchas cash payouts forunused sick days are akey driver of costs.

Are you in favour of the City of Abbotsford developing a new water supply source at Stave Lake (consisting of a water intake in Stave Lake, a pump station, a water treatment plant and a water transmission line from the Stave Lake to the City of Abbotsford) to ensure that the current and long term water needs of the City of Abbotsford are met by:

the City entering into a partnering agreement with a private sector partner that will design, build, partially finance and operate a water supply and distribution system from Stave Lake for up to thirty (30) years, incurring a maximum capital cost and liability to the City of TWO HUNDRED AND NINETY-ONE MILLION DOLLARS ($291,000,000)

of which up to $61,000,000 will be paid for through a federal contribution; and

Abbotsford City Council adopting Bylaw NO. 2105-2011, “Stave Lake Water System Loan Authorization Bylaw, 2011” to authorize the borrowing by the City of the remaining TWO HUNDRED AND THIRTY MILLION DOLLARS ($230,000,000), for up to thirty (30) years, for the capital cost of constructing the water supply and distribution system from Stave Lake?

Two languages, one friendshipMelissa WELSHContributor

One Abbotsford family will have some

special French flavour this Thanksgiving holiday.

Melanie Kneisky, a student from France, has been staying with the family of Alexandra Johnson for just over two months.

Both teens are part of an exchange pro-gram run by French institution Organisme de Sejours Educatifs Francais (OSEF).

Alexandra, who at-tends Yale secondary, is the only Abbotsford student participating with OSEF this fall.

The two Grade 11 students have found that while discovering new cultures and sur-roundings, sometimes the best of friendships are formed.

The two girls de-scribe their bond be-tween bursts of laugh-ter.

“I don’t feel home-sick, because I feel like this is my own home here,” Melanie says.

With a few, some-times humorous, dif-ferences.

Sitting in the kitch-en, Melanie laughs at the jingle coming from the dryer, indicating the clothes are done. She’s never heard it before.

Just like she never tasted peanut but-ter before coming to Canada.

“They put it on toast,” she says in dis-belief. “Oh, I don’t like it.”

Alexandra’s mom Daphne mentions that the program coordi-nators described two stereotypes of French students – they hate peanut butter but are addicted to Nutella; and their rooms are immaculately kept.

While the first state-ment is true – with Melanie going through an entire jar of Nutella in only four days – the latter is not.

Melanie’s laissez-fair approach to her bedroom may be due to the fact that Daphne has focused on treat-ing her like family in-stead of a guest..

The contrast in cul-tures has resulted in some adjustments for both Melanie and the Johnson clan.

The most apparent

is food – not the type, but the quantity, and time it takes to eat.

While students at Yale Secondary have 40 minutes to gather their lunch, eat and head back for class, Melanie says that back home in Belfort, France, lunch is an hour minimum.

“At lunch we eat a lot. We have one plate, one little thing like that and one dessert,” Melanie says, gestur-ing with her hands to indicate generous portions.

“So, we need time.”At her school, can-

tina supervisors will not let students leave before a half-hour has passed, to prevent eat-ing too fast.

Daphne notes how at home, Melanie has had to adjust to the fact that Canadians usually only eat one large meal a day, for dinner, and that there isn’t always dessert afterwards.

What does follow, however, are some interesting conversa-tions.

Learning about the Canadian government has been something Melanie has enjoyed, and often she and the family will talk about the political differenc-es between this prov-ince and her country.

Other subjects have proved difficult. Melanie had to trans-fer out of psychology because she could not keep up due to the dense reading mate-rial.

Language issues are something Alexandra may experience trav-elling to France in January for her three-month stay.

A French-immersion student up until Grade 9, Alexandra will be exposed to a new ver-sion of French, rather than the Quebecois she was taught.

Melanie’s history teacher classified it as the French Parisians spoke 200 years ago, most likely preserved because Quebec is sandwiched between E n g l i s h - s p e a k i n g provinces.

Meanwhile, other observations are made.

Everything else is bigger here, Melanie says, like the houses and even the cities.

After a shopping ex-cursion to downtown Vancouver, Melanie

said she could not live in the city.

While she may go to Paris to have fun, at home there is one street in town lined with stores.

“It is impossible to lose yourself there.”

But there are other things in the Lower Mainland that she has fallen in love with – one being the abun-dance of trees.

To Melanie, driving between cities here is like driving between forests, because trees are everywhere.

It is not like that in France, she says.

“There’s something about the colour of

the leaves with the sun coming through. I love it,” Melanie said. The maple tree is her favourite.

The exchange has been one of the best experiences of her life, Melanie says.

And while she has enjoyed the beautiful landscape B.C. has to offer, it is the friend-ship with Alexandra and her family that has made the trip so memorable.

That relationship is what both girls say they’ll be thankful for this holiday weekend.

It will be the first Thanksgiving Melanie will experience.

It’s that time of year again.

It’s getting dark early, it’s

raining more often and foggy

patches are here, there and

sometimes everywhere. All of

which negatively affect driving

conditions. But paying attention

to the changing weather and

using a little seasonal road

sense, helps prevent crashes

and injuries that could negatively

affect your auto insurance rates.

Practice safe

driving in adverse

weather and

remember what

to expect in the

days ahead.

When driving on

wet roads after

a prolonged dry

spell, oil on the road

tends to rise to the

surface, making for

extra slippery conditions, so be

extra cautious and slow down.

Roads that are slick with rain

can cause cars to hydroplane if

they are travelling too fast and

need to brake suddenly.

But no matter how carefully

you drive, it’s impossible to

avoid a crash if you can’t see

the road ahead. Remember

to change your windshield

wipers regularly, before their

effectiveness is reduced.

Likewise, check to see that

your vehicle’s A/C is functioning

properly and can quickly

defrost or defog windows. Keep

a combination snow-brush/

squeegee/scraper in the car

to take care of the hard stuff

like ice, frost and snow on your

windows before you drive away.

At 2 a.m. Sunday, November

6, Daylight Savings Time comes

to an end. Setting clocks back

one hour brings darkness

earlier and makes it more

difficult to see the pedestrians

and cyclists who share the road

with you. According to ICBC,

this time change is known to be

followed by an increase in the

number of crashes and injuries

on B.C. roads. So be safe and

consider driving with headlights

on, because many daytime

running lights

don’t automatically

illuminate the tail

lights.

Most important

of all, Monday

October 31 is

when thousands

of little ghosts

and goblins will

be out swarming

our streets and

neighbourhoods in search of

Halloween tricks and treats.

Most will be too young and

excited to think about road

safety and the earlier onset of

darkness. Though most children

are accompanied by adults, kids

are unpredictable, and it’s up to

drivers to stay alert for any that

may dart into traffic.

Being aware of the impending

weather and driving accordingly

will enhance the safety of all

road users during the change of

seasons. A change of season

may also mean a change in

your auto insurance needs. Visit

your local BCAA Sales Centre

to ensure you are prepared

with the right coverage for the

coming months.

Take advantage of Fire Prevention Week and learn more about how you can protect yourself and your family in the event of a fire.

• FARM SERVICES • PLUMBING SUPPLIES• HEATING & SHEET METAL• IRRIGATION EQUIPMENT

The theme of this year’s Fire Preven-tion Week, Oct. 9-15, is “Protect Your Family From Fire.”

This year, the campaign is all about keeping you, your family, and your community safer from fi re. This is an excellent time for families to ensure their household is prepared, ensuring lives are saved if fi re occurs.

Did You Know?Most fatal fi res take place

at night, while you and your family are asleep - when seconds can make the differ-ence between life and death. If you have one or more working smoke alarms in your home, you increase your chances of surviving a fi re! Smoke alarms are inexpen-sive, easy to install and are also required by law within all homes – smoke alarms are your fi rst line of defense.

Secondly…When fi re strikes, there is no time

to think! Take time now to create a home fi re escape plan. Show two ways out of every room and identify a family meeting place away from the home.

Practice your home fi re drill with the entire family during Fire Pre-vention Week. Wednesday, Oct. 12 is “The Great Canadian Fire Drill” where all residents of British Colum-bia are encouraged to practice their home fi re safety plan.

Please remember:• Working smoke alarms can save

your life

• Never remove batteries from smoke alarms

• Make fi re safety a priority in your home

• Prepare and practice a fi re safety plan

Citizens of Abbotsford continue to be blessed with dedicated fi re rescue service members including those be-longing to the International Association of Firefi ghters, Canadian Union of Public Employees, Auxiliary Fire-fi ghter Division and Man-agement Team who always put the fi re service fi rst and

are making a difference in the com-munity.

On behalf of the Abbotsford Fire Rescue Service I wish to thank you, the citizens of Abbotsford, for your continued support of the Abbotsford Fire Rescue Service and urge each of you and your families to practice fi re safety.

Please visit your local fi re hall open house Oct. 12 from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. and enjoy Fire Prevention Week activities. Contact our fi re prevention staff at 604-853-3566 for more de-tailed information about protecting your home.

Be fi re safe!

Members of the Abbotsford Fire Rescue Service joined the Abbotsford Police in an hon-our guard that took part in the 10th annual ceremony of remembrance for those who perished in the Sept. 11 attacks on the World Trade Centre. The ceremony was held at the Sumas border crossing, involving emergency responders from Canada and the U.S.

Candles provide great warmth and ambience to any home. It is easy to forget that an open fl ame that can reach 1,400 C. Most candle fi res begin in the bedroom – with a mattress or bedding cited as the fi rst item to ignite – except during the holidays, when more people use candles precariously close to decorations. Furniture and plastics are also cited as the fi rst items in a home to catch fi re from a lit candle.

From Great People toGreat Performance


Our Position on Stave Lake:Mayor Peary“All of us, every day use water. It is without a doubt, the single most important resource in our lives and yet we live in the privileged position of hardly ever needing to think about it. For our community, that situation has changed. As early as 2016, we are facing a serious threat to our ability to supply Abbotsford with sufficient amounts of water. It is up to all of us today to ensure that our water supply remains safe, constant and abundant. By supporting the Stave Lake Project, we will address water supply concerns for ourselves, for our children, and for our grandchildren.”

John Smith “Maintaining a reliable water supply for Abbotsford is an issue that none of us can afford to ignore. By 2016, without a new water source, we will be facing some serious challenges as a community including impacts to our economy, our families and our livelihoods. Developing Stave Lake as a P3 project ensures we have an affordable, economically stable solution to this issue. “

Dave Loewen“Ensuring that we maintain an adequate water supply is vital to the continued economic prosperity of Abbotsford. Developing Stave Lake will provide our community with the safety and security for fire protection, basic water supply and growth that we require. Without this new water source, we will place our community in serious jeopardy.”

Simon Gibson“Developing Stave Lake as our new water source is the most cost effective and sustainable way for us to ensure that our residents have a secure water supply that will support them today and far into the future. If Abbotsford is unsuccessful in providing a stable water supply, we will effectively diminish our community’s ability to be successful.”

Bill MacGregor“It is vitally important that Abbotsford have an adequate water supply that meets the needs of all residents. By developing Stave Lake, we will be able to ensure that Abbotsford has a clean, safe and ample supply of water for generations to come.”

Les Barkman“Our citizens and our businesses rely on having a good, clean and safe water supply every day. By developing Stave Lake as our new water source, we will be able to continue to support our community in carrying out the daily activities that we currently take for granted.”

Moe Gill“An adequate supply of clean water is critical for our community; for residents, farms, businesses and institutions. By developing a new source at Stave Lake, we will continue to ensure that clean, safe and reliable water is available for everyone in Abbotsford.”

Lynne Harris“The need for water is universal and we cannot sustain our community without it. It is critical that we take every step necessary to ensure our water supply is sufficient to meet our needs. Stave Lake provides us with the best opportunity of securing a long term, safe, and plentiful water source for Abbotsford.”

Bearcats dreaming big

Dan KINVIGAbbotsford News

It’s been nearly seven months since the Columbia Bible College men’s volley-ball team won the na-tional championship, but it still feels a little bit surreal to head coach Rocky Olfert.

“I don’t think we’ll maybe realize what we’ve done until later in our lives, just what kind of feat that was,” Olfert marveled on Tuesday, as his team prepared to embark on the 2011-12 cam-paign.

Olfert’s lingering shock could be for-given, in light of the fact the Bearcats’ run to the Canadian Collegiate Athletic Association title kind of materialized out of nowhere.

CBC’s Cinderella run began in the provin-cial semifinals, when they upset a Douglas College Royals squad which had beaten them in all three pre-vious meetings dur-ing the regular sea-son. The win gave the Bearcats a wild card berth to nationals.

Then at the na-tional tourney in Sherbrooke, Que., the sixth-seeded CBC

squad knocked off the top three teams – No. 3 Sherbrooke, No. 2 Briercrest, and No. 1 UBC-Okanagan – en route to clinching the gold medal.

This year, the Bearcats already know they’ll be playing at nationals – they’re hosting the event from March 8-10, and they’re determined to put up a spirited de-fence of their title at home.

“It definitely gives us confidence, knowing what we can do,” said sophomore left side Will Quiring, reflect-ing on last season’s ac-complishments. “But at the same time, we don’t want to be look-ing back. We want to be looking forward. We have a long, long ways to go before na-tionals.”

Under different cir-cumstances, players like Quiring and set-ter Jason Warkentin might not be suiting up for the Bearcats this fall.

Quiring, a Saskatoon, Sask. native, had sev-eral scholarship of-fers from Canadian Interuniversity Sport (CIS) programs after earning MVP honours

Cascades athletic director departsDan KINVIGAbbotsford News

The University of the Fraser Valley

and Cascades ath-letic director Rick Nickelchok are part-ing ways.

The circum-stances surrounding Nickelchok’s depar-ture aren’t entirely

clear. A brief press release issued by the university on Wednesday stated that

Nickelchok “has left UFV to pursue other opportunities.”

A UFV spokesper-

son declined further comment, stating that it’s university policy not to speak publicly

on personnel issues. Nickelchok, like-

wise, declined com-ment when contactedby The News.

Chris Bertram,head of UFV’s kine-siology and physicaleducation departmentand the coach of theCascades men’s golft e a m , w i l l serve as interim athletic director.

“ A t t h i s point, all we know is, Rick is off pursu-ing other things, andwe’re wishing him allthe best and thankinghim for the time he’sgiven to the program,”Bertram said.

“I’m fairly up to speedwith the workings ofthe department, andwhat the immediateresponsibilities andpriorities are. Really,all I’m trying to doright now is ensurethat the disruptionto the program isminimized and all thecoaches and student-athletes are able tocarry on with theirbusiness of preparingfor their seasons.”

In terms of a timelinefor securing a new ath-letic director, Bertramsaid the university isdoing a review of thejob description.

“There’s somethought there might bea bit of a reworking ofthe roles of that par-ticular position,” hesaid. “Once that’s beendetermined, there willbe a search commenc-ing immediately.”

Nickelchok hadserved as Cascadesathletic director sinceJuly of 2007, when hewas hired away froma similar position atBrandon University.

Grewal, Moedt lead Cascades past ’Cats

The University of the Fraser Valley men’s basketball team took it to the Columbia Bible College Bearcats in preseason action, thumping their crosstown rivals 88-33 in exhibition action on Wednesday eve-ning at Columbia Place.

The favoured CIS squad opened the game on an 11-0 run and never looked back, out-rebounding their PACWest col-lege foe 51-37 en route to the victory.

Kyle Grewal and Jasper Moedt – both returning to the Cascades lineup this fall after sitting out with torn ACLs last season – led the way in the scoring column.

Grewal scored a game-high 17 points, while Moedt chipped in with 14.

First-year guard Kevin Ford led the Bearcats with 16 points.

The Cascades hosted Quest University on

Thursday evening, but that result

was unavail-able at press

time. They continue the preseason on Oct. 13, when they host

the Northern Alberta Institute of Technology at Sardis Secondary (8 p.m. start).

Up next for the CBC men’s hoop-sters is a home-court date with Northwest Indian College on Oct. 13 at 7 p.m.

Mackenzie Shopland and Sahib Phagura have been named the University of the Fraser Valley athletes of the week.

Shopland, a rookie midfielder with the Cascades women's soccer team, helped

her squad to a 2-0 win over Lethbridge on Saturday and was named player of the match in UFV's 1-0 loss to Calgary on Sunday.

Phagura, a first-year defender from Abbotsford, was a

strong presence for the UFV men's squad during a scoreless draw with Victoria on Saturday. For his efforts, Phagura earned his second player of the match honour of the sea-son.

Soccer stars Shopland, Phagura honoured by UFV

CBC primed to host v-ball nationalsat nationals.

Warkentin, meanwhile, is in the intercultural studies pro-gram at CBC, and is supposed to be overseas on an eight-month missionary internship this year.

But for both players, the lure of defending the champi-

onship at home was too entic-ing to pass up.

“This is my hometown, and it’s our school,” explained Warkentin, a Mennonite Educational Institute grad. “I thought this is the right place to be this year. Seeing this gym packed, it’s going to be awesome.”

The PACWest volleyball

regular season opens nextweekend. The CBC teams playa doubleheader at CapilanoUniversity on Friday andSaturday, while their coun-terparts from the Universityof the Fraser Valley are atDouglas College.

Abby side battles breeze

Ben Cummings of the Robert Bateman junior football team out-runs the Samuel Robertson Technical Titans defence to the end zone during the T-Wolves’ 48-0 victory on Wednesday. Running backs Cummings and Austin Zacher had big games in the win, while Christian Pedersen had an interception for a touchdown and Tanner Friesen recorded two fumble recoveries.

into the box in the 65th minute."The wind was blowing the whole game,

and it was a great equalizer," Mariners headcoach Alan Errington said. "It's hard to playwhen the ball is being blown down the fieldthe whole time.

"But we played quite well, really. There wasnever a danger of getting scored on."

After blowing out the New Brunswick squadto open the national tourney, Errington felt itwas good for his team to weather a close gameagainst PEI.

"If we'd gone in and won 5-0 today, I thinkwe might have been a bit cocky," he said. "Butnow we've only won 1-0, and it's a bit of areality check. It reinforces that we can't takeanything for granted. We've got to performevery game."

The Mariners continue pool play againstManitoba on Friday and against Quebec onSaturday. The winners of each of the twopools move on to the title game on Monday.

ABRAM TILITZKY

Abram Tilitzky was born on September 9, 1920 in Einlage, Russia, the youngest of seven children, to Gerhard and Elisabeth (Giesbrecht) Tilitzky. He passed into the presence of his Lord on October 04, 2011 at the Abbotsford Regional Hospital.At the age of 5 Abram left Russia and arrived in Canada with his widowed mother and his siblings at the Port of Quebec aboard the Montclair. The family settled near the town of Herbert, Saskatche-wan where Abram attended school and as a young man, together with his brothers and sisters, helped to support his mother by working on nearby farms.At the age of 19 he met the love of his life, Susan Harder, at the local Mennonite Church and together they forged a bond that was to last for over 70 years. Following a fi ve year courtship they were married on June 25, 1944 in Herbert Saskatchewan. Always a hard worker Abram supported his wife and grow-ing family by whatever means possible and at the same time used his love for music and his amazing bass voice to serve God in the church and on radio singing in a male quartet. In 1950 together, with his wife and two small children, he moved to BC and settled in Clearbrook where with his talent in sales, that he had developed selling door to door in Saskatchewan, he had no trouble fi nding work. In 1954, together with his wife Susan, he opened Abe’s Furniture and Appliances. In BC the family grew to eight; three daughters and three sons. His love for people and his unmatched generosity left a legacy that is still spoken of today. Abe leaves behind Susan, his loving wife of 67 years; daughters Sharon Funk (Len); Susan Falk (Jack); Beverly Johnston (Robert); sons Paul Tilitzky (Florinda Clifford); Michael Tilitzky (Marion Syme); and Richard Tilitzky (Vicki). He also leaves behind twelve grandchildren; Sherry Redekop, Len Funk Jr., Stephanie Konrad, Michele Gingras, Jacqueline Block, Andrea Fikkert, Janine Neufeld, Clarance Tilitzky, Liam Tilitzky, Amy Tilitzky, Jason Tilitzky, and Jodi Tilitzky; eighteen great-grand-children and three great-great-grandchildren. Abram was predeceased by both of his parents and all of his siblings. Memorial Service will be held at 2:00 pm on October 11, 2011 at Level Ground, (formerly West Abbotsford Church), 31216 King Road, Abbotsford BC.

“Your Communi ty Funera l Homes That Care”www.digni tymemoria l .com

I had many conversations with my father during my time at home. My father wanted to take the place of his daughter. He told me that he was experiencing a lot of problems. He said that Dio (God) better come and take him fi rst before He comes and takes any of his daughters. My father was in denial. He was battling the fact that his child was going to die before him. When death takes place, reality sets in. A new chapter begins in our life.

Death is a painful experience but it exists. It leaves a vacuum in our life. We experience the pain of grief. The physical separation of our loved one brings suffering and many of us are not prepared to face this reality. Every day, we prepare ourselves to live but

we seldom prepare ourselves to die. Yet, it could happen to anyone of us. My father just thought that this would not happen to him.

He had a hard life growing up. He worked hard, he provided for his family, he treated his fellow man with respect, and he retired comfortably. But, my father had no control over his daughter’s situation. How could it be that his daughter is dying? She was only 58. It was his fi rstborn child.

As we communicated with each other, I had to impress upon him that Pat was dying and there was no cure except death itself. I had hope for eternal life and he had hope for continued life on earth.
