Last weekend’s firing of the Cowichan school board fetched mixed reactions in Chilliwack.
Some called it bullying and undemocratic, while others said it was justified.
B.C. Education Minister George Abbott fired all nine trustees on the Cowichan school board on Sunday after the board elected to submit a $3.8 mil-lion deficit budget.
As per the School Act, legislated by the Ministry of Education, all school districts are required to submit balanced budgets.
The board was replaced by an unelected offi-cial – Mike McKay, superintendent of the Surrey School District – who could hold the position until end of term in 2014.
For Chilliwack school trustee Heather Maahs, the decision was black and white.
“Rules are rules,” Maahs said in an email to The Progress. “That’s what we teach students in school and that’s what needs to be adhered to by example. If one board chooses not to follow those rules, there are consequences that must take place regardless of whether or not a board believes it is taking a moral stand.”
However, Chilliwack District Parents’ Advisory Council president Gord Byers equated the firing to bullying.
“Basically they were told they had to make cuts or get fired,” said Byers. “But how many cuts were they going to have to make to balance that budget? And how was that going to affect student learning?
“These trustees were elected officials. They were trying to do the best for their school district.”
Chilliwack parent and former school trustee John Henry Harter said the dismissal should be concerning to all B.C. school boards.
“It’s completely undemocratic,” said Harter. “The fact they were not passing a balanced budget is a slim justification,” to fire them. “Yes, it was pro-vocative. Yes, they were trying to make point. But I think that’s their job to make a point if they feel education is suffering.
“What it says is you do as you’re told by the pro-vincial government, or you get fired.”
Further proof, Harter said, that trustees, despite being elected, are “government lackies.”

Chilliwack-Fraser Canyon MP Mark Strahl doesn’t think a city the size of Chilliwack should be split up as proposed by the federal electoral boundaries com-mission.
Greendale, Yarrow, Cultus Lake and about half of Sardis would move to the Abbotsford-Sumas federal riding, and a sparsely populated area around 100-Mile House would be added to Chilliwack-Fraser Canyon, if B.C.’s electoral map is redrawn as proposed.
“It’s a major change,” Strahl said Wednesday, making the riding one of the largest in B.C.
Every 10 years the map is redrawn based on a formula that divides the prov-ince’s population by an “electoral quo-tient” to determine the number of seats allocated in the House of Commons.
B.C. will get an additional six seats as a result of the redistribution.
But in Chilliwack, Strahl thinks the commission needs to focus less on meet-ing that population criteria, and more on holding communities of interest together.
“I think ideally where a city the size
of Chilliwack is under that (population) mark, if it’s possible, I think it should stay together. You shouldn’t be dividing a city of this size,” he said.
The average riding population in B.C. is 104,763.
But Strahl pointed out that he proposed boundary changes are “not set in stone.”
“I don’t think what you see today will be the final result,” he said.
According to the commission’s website, its main goal is to divide the province into electoral districts within 25 per cent of the

Chilliwack is moving closer to building a new methane extraction and landfill expansion project at the Bailey landfill site to reduce green-house gases.
Three of four compliant proponents were short-listed this week at city hall in a request for expressions of inter-est (RFEI) process for the Bailey Landfill Design-Build project.
Major renovations are planned for the $3.5 million project, including the expansion of the existing site on Bailey Road, and building a “landfill gas management system,” as well as a new leachate pump station, after the old one is decommissioned.
A series of pipes and wells will be installed in stages to collect the methane gas.
After approval by council Tuesday, the three firms will now be invited to submit design-build proposals in the upcoming request for proposals (RFP) stage. The three were chosen to move forward after being evalu-ated and ranked based on set criteria such as financial means and technical experience.
The selected teams include: Conestoga-Rovers & Associates (CRA)/Jacobs Brothers, Golder Construction Inc./Golder Associates Ltd., and Strohmaier’s Excavating Ltd./Sperling Hansen Associates.
The project cost was covered entirely by gas tax funds, and the province provided technical reviews to help expedite it. UBCM adminis-ters the tax fund in B.C., which the federal government funds nationally with $2 billion a year.
A trench network is going in at the site as part of the plan and that
will see methane gas drawn into a pipe and then burned off in a pro-cess called “flaring” with the goal of substantially cutting greenhouse gas emissions.
“The preferred proponent will be responsible for the operations and maintenance of the gas extraction system for a two year period to ensure compliance with the performance standards.
They will also be responsible for
maximizing the potential for earning carbon credits,” according to the staff report.
Following the submission of Design-Build RFP proposals from the three finalists, the evaluation com-mittee will review them and subse-quently recommend the next steps to council.
At this point equipment and instal-lation costs don’t make it financially viable to capture and re-use the meth-
ane that will be extracted, but former MLA Barry Penner said it was a “big step” for Chilliwack nonetheless to get the technology, when the announce-ment was made last December.
Chilliwack will become one of only eight communities in B.C. with the technological ability to flare methane gas at the landfill to reduce GHG emissions.

Family heirlooms valued at over $200,000 were stolen from a rural Yale Road property last month, and Chilliwack RCMP are looking for witnesses.
“Often in cases like this the monetary value is not what is impor-tant, it’s the sentimen-tal value that the goods hold,” RCMP Const. Tracy Wolbeck said.
“This family would like their property back, and we are looking for any witnesses that may have seen something on that night,” she said.
Sometime during the evening of June 22 or the early morning of June 23 thieves broke into a large garage on the unoccupied farm prop-erty. A large amount of antique china, a gold plate and a large Chinese stamp collec-tion were stolen, along with four large wooden crates filled with other items.
Anyone with infor-mation is asked to call the Chilliwack RCMP at 604-792-4611 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS.

Neon motel sign destroyed by fire
A fire in a motel’s neon sign was quickly extinguished by firefighters last Friday before it could do any damage to the building.
The flames had extended from the sign on the exterior of the second floor to the outside wall and up into the sof-fit and attic area of the building in the 46000-block Yale Road when firefighters arrived at about 9 p.m.
“Fire crews were able to douse the flames quickly from the exterior and then enter into the building to put out any fire in the attic, said Assistant Fire Chief Jeff Ullyot.
The motel rooms were not occupied at the time, and tenants of a detached building were allowed to return to their rooms.
Damage was limited to the outside wall of the building and some roof truss-es in the attic. The neon sign was fully consumed.
The cause of the fire is under inves-tigation, but it is not considered suspi-cious.

The Fraser River peaked higher and later than usual causing flooding in Chilliwack’s unprotected areas for the second year in a row.
A resident-built berm was successful at keeping the flood waters at bay until it failed when the river rose significantly toward the end of June, according to a staff report at council Tuesday.
“It looks like the threat of flooding is over, but the work starts now,” Coun. Jason Lum told The Progress.
“It’s important that we not wait until next spring to start working on this with senior levels of government.”
It has to be a collaborative effort to get the necessary flood protection upgrades done right, he underlined.
“No one level of government has all the resources. Everybody has a role to play,” he said.
The highest of two peaks reached on the Lower Fraser River in the past two weeks amounted to a one-in-20-year event, according to city staffer Tara Friesen, assistant manager of environmental services, during her update to council Tuesday.
The first big pulse of rainwater and snow-melt pushed the Mission gauge needle to the 6.38 metres on June 23-24, dropped and rose again to 6.25 metres last week.
“Water levels were not sufficient to create serious flooding inside the dike system,” she reported. “Unfortunately, there was substan-tial flooding outside the dike, in the Carey Point area.”
Other locations saw seepage related impacts, and “seepage naturally occurs” when water levels come up to this extent.
Mayor Sharon Gaetz said the receding waters are allowing everyone to breathe a sigh of relief. She praised and thanked staff for superlative efforts during the high-water season, and said some neighbours had brought coffee and baking to hard-working
crew members.“So thanks goes out to the community for
that. It shows we are a close community and we look after each other.”
After the staff report at the council meet-ing, Lum said council is working to lobby the province and other levels of government for “significant long-term planning” and funds to tackle river issues, he said.
Lum is the River Management Committee chair, as part of the Lower Mainland Local Government Association.
“We can’t just sit around waiting with our fingers crossed every year. People have had property damage and their livelihoods were impacted.
“It’s not just about dredging, diking or drainage. I think it’s going to take a combined effort to ensure people and property are not at risk when the river rises.”

Chilliwack MLA John Les joins the list of politicians, physicians and physical therapists unable to convince the Fraser Health Authority to revisit its decision to close the rehab unit at Chilliwack General Hospital.
Les met with FHA CEO Dr. Nigel Murray last week, but came away thinking the “some-what unbelievable” decision to close the $2.5 million unit that opened just six years ago is still firmly in place.
“In the most persuasive way I could, I tried to make the case (to Murray) that they should keep the rehab open, and I felt they were making a mistake,” Les said.
But Murray was “equally ada-mant,” Les added, that the FHA has “good evidence” from earlier pilot projects that the new model will be better for patients.
However, it was lack of consul-tation with hospital doctors and
community health care agencies, Les said, that most fed the uproar following the announcement that an outpatient service would replace the 20 hospital beds set aside at CGH for the rehab unit.
FHA officials were “at pains,” Les said, to tell him the lack of
consultation was the result of union protocols.
Officials at the Hospital Employees Union and the Health Sciences Association of B.C. have denied the assertion.

Opponents of Kinder Morgan’s plan to twin its oil pipeline through the Lower Mainland and Fraser Valley intend to use regulatory hearings over the business terms with oil customers as an arena to raise broader concerns.
And the Pipe Up Network based in the Fraser Valley will be stepping up to the plate, said spokes-man Michael Hale.
“We’re certainly going to seek representation at the hearings,” he told The Progress on Tuesday.
He also said Pipe Up will be holding a “series of town hall meetings” in the Chilliwack area in the next few weeks to hear residents’ concerns about the proposed expansion of the Trans Mountain pipeline owned by Kinder Morgan.
Company president Ian Anderson announced last Friday that Kinder Morgan has applied to the National Energy Board for approval of the tolls it will charge the nine major shippers who have signed on to 20-year contracts.
The toll hearings will precede later NEB hear-ings on the actual pipeline expansion, for which the company expects to file an NEB application in late 2013.
Anderson stressed that the toll hearings have nothing to do with the construction or the 1,150-kilometre route of the $4-billion pipeline from Edmonton, Alberta to Burnaby. Those mat-ters would be the subject of the 2013 application expected after environmental studies and commu-nity consultations.
But NDP associate natural resources critic Kennedy Stewart said the toll hearings offer an early chance for the public to have their say.
“It is the first time we’re going to start getting details about this pipeline,” he said. “It’s such a massive project we have to get involved at all stages.”
Hale wondered why the company is holding the toll hearings first, which set the rates that compa-nies will be charged for the oil products shipped through the Kinder Morgan pipeline, before the “twinning” project is approved.
“I wonder if they’re trying to present it as a fait accompli to the NEB,” he said.
Stewart said intervenors could ask the NEB to increase the toll rates Kinder Morgan will charge customers to provide extra insurance coverage against a pipeline breach or oil tanker spill.
Contamination of Chilliwack’s underground water aquifer is a major concern of the Pipe Up Network because of the “corrosion” of the pipeline they say is caused by the tar sands.
The Canadian Energy Pipeline Association says that tar sands - also called diluted bitumen - is “no more corrosive” than conventional crude, but Hale says Pipe Up research has found different informa-tion.

VICTORIA – BC Ferries has begun its summer schedule, ramp-ing up sailings for the vacation season that is crucial to the fleet’s bottom line.
It’s been rough sailing for BC Ferries so far this year. The corpo-ration released its financial results in June, reporting a net loss of $16.5 million, compared to net earnings of $3.8 million the pre-vious year. Last year’s earnings were boosted by the sale of the former corporate headquarters for $9.3 million, preventing a loss there as well.
In the fiscal year that ended March 31, vehicle traffic was down 3.5 per cent and walk-on passen-gers were down 2.8 per cent. As a result, BC Ferries is forecasting a “small loss” for this year as well.
The spring “Coast Saver” sale has just ended. That’s a 37-per-cent discount offered Fridays through
Mondays, May 25 to June 25 on the major runs from the main-land to Victoria and Nanaimo. The
discounts allowed a foot passenger to cross for $9.95 and a car and driver for $39.95.
I asked BC Ferries CEO Mike Corrigan last week how the sale went. He didn’t have final figures yet, but he allowed that the boost in traffic was
“marginal.”It’s the second year that the
spring sale has been offered over weekends, when people are more likely to travel. But instead of gen-erating additional trips, Corrigan said the main effect has been to shift traffic from midweek to weekends.
One of the primary reasons for this spring’s poor performance is the lousy weather that kept people at home. Gasoline at $1.40 a litre is another big one. Hotels and other tourism services tell the same story.
Here’s another problem: student traffic on the ferries was down by a third this spring, because teachers cancelled field trips as part of their lengthy work-to-rule campaign.
The simplistic political debate about ferry service starts and ends with rising fares, with occasional fits of temper over executive sala-ries, and ignores the other factors. Just cut the fares and increase the taxpayer subsidy, say the NDP and their local echo chambers.
Of course, taxpayers are already pitching in an extra $80 million this year, bringing the subsidy to the ferries close to $200 million. That’s how Transportation Minister Blair
Lekstrom sweetened the pot as he unveiled new powers for B.C. Ferry Commissioner Gord Macatee to set service levels as well as regulate fares.
Macatee’s task now is to travel the coast and endure the demands of island dwellers who want the rest of us to subsidize their splen-did isolation. The proposition for them will boil down to this: You can pay more or you can have fewer sailings. And where the boat is a third full, you will have fewer sailings.
This consultation period is an opportunity to ask some hard questions. For instance, does Saltspring Island really need three ferry terminals? And why is there no passenger-only service?
Macatee’s term as commission-er started with a detailed review last year that pointed to some other ways to save serious money.
But CEO Corrigan says there are no quick fixes.
FortisBC has offered an $11 million incentive for conversion of marine vessels to natural gas, which would give the fleet signifi-cant relief from spiraling fuel costs. But a ferry conversion would take six months or more, and another vessel would be needed in the meantime.
Another promising suggestion is overhauling the ferry reserva-tion service, making reservations free and charging extra for those who just show up. Corrigan says a computer reservation overhaul is underway, but it will take three years.

Rough seas ahead for BC FerriesBC VIEWS
A little peace in B.C. public schools
Bill 22 was a hammer where a feather was needed but, thanks to some fancy footwork by mediator Charles Jago, the worst elements of Bill 22 have been rendered moot, an agreement has been reached and B.C.’s public school teachers and their employers will live to fight another day.
While BC Teachers’ Federation president Susan Lambert characterized the mediation process as a sham, labelled the pressure teachers were under as bullying and the agreement the best that could be achieved under duress, some modest improvements were gained, albeit not in wages. More importantly, the two-year contract ending in 2013 contains few if any of the concessions that had been demanded by the employers, the BC Public School Employers’ Association.
True, there are no improvements in class size and composition language, and the government chose to tighten the screws on teachers with Bill 22 by eliminating limits without giving teachers any of the control they sought in classroom organization. The government claims its $165-million Learning Improvement Fund will allay some of the concerns by putting more teachers and special education assistants in the classroom.
It’s unlikely teachers will be satisfied given their ongoing concerns about what they view as government attacks on their professionalism, autonomy, control over classroom organization and wages. Some of these issues will be addressed through the courts in the hopes that the judicial system will give teachers what the government will not while wages will remain a sticking point when negotiations resume.
For parents, the teachers’ agreement is a relief after months of uncertainty and anxiety, a three-day walk-out and withdrawal of teachers’ support for field trips and other volunteer activities.
But the relief will be short-lived unless the economy turns around, the government changes or it turns out that more money does make a difference to in the classroom — although there will never be enough cash to solve every issue.

Cancelled public question period causes more questions to be asked
I try to be a loyal Canadian consumer but it’s getting harder every day.
I’m not sure Canadian retailers understand that most people today start their research, relating to a significant purchase, using the Internet.
Personally I don’t cross the border to do casual shopping for things like gas, grocer-ies or clothing but I do check sources and
prices online and I try to buy North American made products and invariably prices in the U.S. are substantially lower.
Some recent exam-ples; I needed to replace the winch on the front of my garden tractor and discovered that the only North American made winch was available online and was carried by three local RV/ATV dealers. The price in the U.S. was $310 with free
shipping to Sumas. The lowest quote from local sources was just under $600.
On an appliance part, recently a local dealer quoted $87 plus $6 “to bring it in.” Dewaard and Bode in Bellingham ordered it, brought it in and sold it to me for $35.
The topper was yes-terday when I checked local suppliers for cement board and found two local sourc-
es at just over $20 per sheet. Lowes Home Improvement Centre in Bellingham currently have it in stock at just under $9 a sheet.
Now I thought we had a North American Free Trade agreement in place with both the U.S. and Mexico so how come the huge differ-ence in prices on North American produced goods?

Please make sure items are in good shape as a lot of the items should have gone to the dump. It takes people and money to get rid of your junk. Thank you.

At the start of what would have been public question period at a Cultus Lake Park Board regular meeting on June 27, the chair announced that public question period had been cancelled indefi-nitely as decided by the board in an earlier in-camera session.
This came as quite a shock to the residents who were onlook-ers at the board’s meeting as this is their key mechanism to ask the board important questions about the decisions they make on behalf of the residents and users. There was no explanation as to why question period was cancelled let alone why it was done behind closed doors.
Commissioner Sacha Peter later states in his blog, “Question period was suspended due to an in-camera motion by the board. Unfortunately, the rules and my oath of office prohibit me from saying how I voted on the matter or breaking confidentiality con-cerning this decision.”
A Cultus Lake bylaw states that
“the Board shall hold a 30-minute public participation period.”
Has the board actually changed a bylaw in-camera without having a first, second or third reading let alone public input? If the board has suspended open question period as the bylaw says there is to be one; are the board mem-bers who voted to do this in breach of Section 21 of the Park Act? If so are they going to follow their own rules?
Section 21 of the Cultus Lake Park Act states, “Every person who sits as a member of the Board… who commits a breach of the provisions of this Act or any of the bylaws of the Board, shall, be liable, on summary con-viction, to a fine not exceeding $50…”
These are just some of the questions I would like to ask the board but now there is no ques-tion period, I guess I cannot ask them in an open public forum.
One can only conclude that the reason for this cancellation
was that this board does not like being questioned in public. For years, public question period has been part of the board meet-ings as outlined in the board’s procedural bylaw and now this decision was made in-camera so that those voting to curtail public question period can hide how they voted.
This decision needs to be declassified and the voting results be made public.
I ask that all board members who participated in this vote to stand up and tell the public how they voted. Hiding behind closed doors “in-camera” shows those voting to have question period cut are not willing to stand before the voting public and say “yes, I voted to halt public question peri-od, and please keep this in mind when I run for re-election as I do not support public question peri-ods in an open meeting.”

Are Canadians getting ripped off?
The officers and staff of Griffin Investigation and Security Services would like to take this opportunity to say thank you to all the local residents who assisted us during the flood emergency last week.
Bringing water, pop, and coffee to our security profes-sionals who were tasked with working long hours at the various locations made our job easier and for that, thank you. Your support did not go unnoticed.

average population, but it can exceed that guideline “to deal with extraordinary cir-cumstances.”
Strahl said he will be talking to the commission about his concern over the proposed removal of a part of Sardis and other communities whose history is
closely linked with Chilliwack’s.He said it appears Chilliwack was “squeezed” as the commissioners worked toward the middle of the province from the “hard boundar-ies” of the Pacific Ocean and the Alberta border.
Public hearings will be held this fall before the proposed boundary changes go back to the commission and to fed-eral politicians for comment before a final
report is made in the spring of 2013.No public hearing is scheduled for
Chilliwack, but an Abbotsford hearing is scheduled for Sept. 19 at the Ramada Plaza & Conference Centre starting at 7 p.m.
When the Chilliwack-Fraser Canyon riding was created in 2003 it added a sig-nificant area to the former Fraser Valley East riding represented by MP Chuck Strahl, the current MP’s father.

Dr. Murray declined an interview request this week from The
Progress. A spokesman said Murray could not publicly discuss his conversation with the MLA.
“I can tell you that there has been no change to the imple-mentation plans for the rehab program recon-figuration at CGH since we last spoke,” Roy Thorpe-Dorward said.
“Hopefully, in a few months we can report back on a successful transition and have some positive stories to share about clients who have benefitted from the new outpatient rehab program,” he said.
A task force has been formed to consult with hospital doctors and community care agen-cies on the best way to implement the new outpatient service.
In an earlier news release, FHA officials said the outpatient rehab program — called the Rehabilitation Early Discharge initiative
(REDi) — has proven successful at four other hospitals in the region.
Patients go home an average of nine to 11 days sooner under the program, yet achieve the same, or better, lev-els of recovery, FHA officials said. Rehab patients are also “hap-pier and improve faster” at home, they said.
Patients in the Fraser Valley still needing hos-pital-based rehab will now go to the regional hospital in Abbotsford.
The concern has been that patients returning to CGH take up acute care beds because of inadequate community or home supports, and transportation issues for outpatients and for fami-lies to visit in-patients in Abbotsford.

Central elementary’s Super Science Club won’t be affected by provincial funding cuts, but Chilliwack’s annual Community Science Celebration will.
For three years, Science World has collaborated with the University of the Fraser Valley and Chilliwack and Abbotsford school districts to run the Community Science Celebration, a week of free events that show-cased hands-on science outreach activities in
the two communities.But last week, that
event was terminated when the B.C. govern-ment cut provincial funding for Science World programs.
Ora Steyn, execu-tive director of UFV International, and for-mer acting dean of sci-ences, was saddened by the news.
“This was a really important event for us because there’s a fair-ly large contingent of people that simply can-not afford to go into Vancouver on a regular basis,” said Steyn. “It will certainly hurt what
we do and can do in the valley.”
Science World started offering the Community Science Celebration in the Fraser Valley dur-ing the 2010 Olympics when it realized resi-dents in Chilliwack and Abbotsford weren’t taking advantage of their services at the Vancouver facility.
“This was about mak-ing science cool, rel-evant, current, and to show that it’s not just for eggheads,” said Pauline Finn, vice president of community engage-ment at Science World.
“Ultimately, it’s the families and kids in the community, those we’re trying to spark an inter-est in, who are going to lose out.”
Steyn worries the elimination of the pro-gram will also hurt local interest in the sciences.
In the last few years
UFV has experienced a surge of students apply-ing to get into the bach-elor of science program, which has had a full stu-dent roster for the past two years.
“It’s sad that we can’t carry on with that momentum,” said Steyn. “Quite likely that will be affected.”
However, not all Science World pro-grams in Chilliwack have been chopped.
The Super Science Club at Central elemen-tary, which is another collaboration between Science World, UFV and the Chilliwack school district, will not be cut. Because the club is fund-ed by the school district and community partner-ships, and facilitated by UFV student volunteers, it was not affected by the provincial funding cuts.

The National Resources Defense Council says in a 2011 report that diluted bitu-men “is more likely to cause corrosion in the pipelines through which it flows, as well as in the tankers that carry it through marine ecosystems.”
Despite the “chemi-cal corrosion and physi-cal abrasion” caused by diluted bitumen, the Council said in the report, the NEB “does not distinguish between
conventional crude and diluted bitumen when setting minimum stan-dards for oil pipelines.”
Kinder Morgan insists that pipelines are the safest way to transport large vol-umes of oil product, but opponents point to a list of pipeline failures, including a massive tar sands pipeline rup-ture that spilled three-million litres of oil into Michigan’s Kalamazoo River in 2010.
The company respon-sible, Alberta-based Enbridge, estimates it will cost more than $700 million for the clean-up, which continues to this day.

Beans are one of the really healthy veggies, containing vitamins A, B and C, calcium, phosphorous, iron, lots of fibre, and they have only 31 calories per cup! Not only that but amino acids and folic acid are released as we digest them, helping in the development of red blood cells, the nervous sys-tem and diges-tion. You didn’t know they were this good for you, did you?
There are three types of beans: the snap types (the green and yellow varieties we all grow); green shelling beans (like broad beans); and the dry shell varieties (like the kidney types). Most popular, of course, are the snap types, both bush and pole. This, however, has not always been the case. For centuries, snap beans (referring to the snap-ping sound they make when broken) were not that well liked because the seam along the pod was rather tough, hence the name ‘string’ bean. We have to thank Calvin Keeny, a New Yorker whose breeding efforts resulted in the first really tasty and tender ‘string-less’ bean - Burpee’s ‘Stringless Green Pod’. Introduced in 1898, this bean helped Calvin become known as ‘The Father of the Stringless Bean’. What a title! The ‘Tender Green’ variety, which we still see on racks today, was intro-duced in 1925. It wasn’t until 1962 that the fabu-lous ‘Bush Blue Lake’ was developed. It is still one of the top varieties today and is both fla-vourful and tender.
Good pole beans arrived even earlier with the introduction of ‘Kentucky Wonder’ in 1877 by the Ferry-Morse Seed Company. A cross between ‘Kentucky Wonder’ and ‘Blue Lake’ resulted in a 1991 All American Selection, ‘Kentucky Blue’, one of the best pole varieties today.
Beans, by the way, are not hybrids. They
are produced as open pollinated crops in Northwestern USA. All beans are legumes, like peas, and fix nitrogen in the soil as they grow, making them an impor-tant nutrient crop.
Now that beans have earned the rec-ognition they deserve, we need to be a lit-tle more creative in how we grow them. They make wonderful container plants in limited space gardens, but be innovative. You need a pot the
size of a traditional half barrel. Make an eight foot teepee with three to five bamboo canes, plant the seeds at the base of the canes and watch the pole beans grow. For a much more beautiful effect, alternate your favourite flavourful vari-eties with some beauti-ful red flowered ‘Scarlet Runner’ beans. You might also plant some bush types around the base, blending your favourite green bush, yellow wax and the pur-ple ‘Royal Burgundy’. You can have it all – flavour, variety, a longer harvest period and lots of colour!
Speaking of inno-vation, why not make your garden a show-piece with trellises, pyramids, archways and pergolas planted with various climb-ing beans and other vegetable vines. I love the vegetable garden at Longwood Gardens in Pennsylvania where they make kids huts out of willow and use beans to smother these little hideaways with colour, shade and ready made snacks!
Beans are one of the easiest vegetables to grow, but the weather needs to be good and warm before they are planted. Consistent night temperatures of 55 to 60˚F (13-16˚C) are the minimum for beans to grow instead of rot-ting. Gently push the seed about 1½ inches (2-3cm) into the soil and space bush beans about

Strong Canadian Wealth Management HeritageCanaccord Wealth Management’s business focus is on meeting the changing
investment needs of our clients from the creation of wealth, through to preservation of wealth, and ultimately to the transfer of wealth (estate planning). Our clients know they can bank on the independent investment advice that we’ll offer.
The Chilliwack Chamber of Commerce, working on behalf of our member businesses, is committed to making a positive contribution to our community, where we live, work and play, and to the global community of which we are all a part of.
As we near the 110th year of our organization and refl ect on our participation as a long-time community member and the “voice of business”, there is much to be proud of. The Chilliwack Chamber of Commerce is one of the oldest Chambers of Commerce in the province of BC, and is widely respected as a part of the larger whole of the BC and Canadian Chambers of Commerce. We work collaboratively with local and provincial government, bringing forward concerns of business in a formalized process such as our policy development, and informally in
many areas as common issues arise.The Chamber structure is membership
driven with an elected voluntary board who in turn hire staff to run the operations end of Chamber Business. There are many business owners and past owners who have served on the Chamber board in many capacities volunteering many hours of their time to make a positive difference to our business community and our community as a whole.
We have a beautiful community in which we live, and the Chamber has been a leader in the Triple Bottom Line approach (people, planet and profi t) demonstrating responsible corporate citizenship as we continue to move forward into a challenging future. We need to be mindful and work together, ensuring we take into account all three of these important bottom line factors in our decision making to ensure our
community’s resources, business competitiveness, economic health and standard of living is available to future community members. We are responsible and accountable to our future generations for leaving a legacy of another 100 plus years that includes a future standard of living that we can be proud of.
For information on the Chamber of Commerce, including membership and/or sponsorship and events such as our luncheons, Connections events, Business Conference and Business Excellence Awards please check our website at www.chilliwackchamber.com, email [email protected] or call 604-793-4323.

Home&Garden3 to 4 inches (8-10cm) apart. You don’t need a lot of plants to get a great crop, usually a quarter or half a packet will do. Repeated plantings every two or three weeks will give you
continuous cropping. I sow my last crop about mid-July and enjoy beans well into October. Many growers are now producing them in pots, saving you about three weeks of growing time – a good idea this year because of the nasty spring weather.
If summer drought becomes a problem, beans are a smart crop because all they need is one inch of water per week. All water-ing should be done early in the day to keep the foliage dry at night. Don’t harvest or work around beans when
it’s wet for fear of spread-ing a fungus-like rust. Beans are also light feeders. If you have enriched the soil with well rotted manures and quality compost, they will require little else. I told you they were easy!
It’s best to harvest snap
beans when the pods are just starting to plump up and are four to five inches long. Lima beans should be picked when the pods are really puffy but before the seeds yellow. Be care-ful when harvesting beans to cut or pick the pods off
without destroying the main stems. If you stop harvest-ing, most beans will stop producing, so keep picking!
So grow some beans and get healthy, enjoy great fla-vours and add lots of colour both in your cooking and on the vine.

Jennifer FeinbergThe Progress
Awakenings is an original one-act play opening July 11 in the Rotary Hall at the Chilliwack Cultural Centre.
This is “locally grown” theatre that takes the audience to the very “edge,” director Emily Hamel prom-ises.
The piece has a distinct dreamlike quality, and the show’s transforma-tive tagline is: “You change your heart by changing your life.”
It’s about confronting one’s past and examining some the key rela-tionships.
Seven local writers have been workshopping Awakenings since January of this year, meeting weekly to bounce ideas off one another.
“It was a really interesting experi-ence to see the story develop this way,” says Hamel who also edited
the play. “Each writer initially took on a character and wrote a mono-logue. We then wrote small scenes to weave those stories
together.” Here is Hamel’s description of
the Awakenings’ plot: “The storyline follows Ainslin, an environmental lawyer who has let her work over-shadow her personal life.
“She slips into a dream and must confront some personal demons in order to wake up.”
There’s a reckoning offered as the piece progresses, and it makes for a strong redemptive element in the play.
While captured inside her dream state, Ainslin encounters a few faces from her real life, including her estranged sister, a nosy neighbor, her ex-husband, and a zany psychia-trist. Each person she meets brings her closer to the reality of what she’s
there to learn. Writers who worked collabora-
tively on the piece include Dudley Cox, Ross Biondolillo, Nancy Guitar, Richard Ogilvie, Haley Smith, Ralph Jones, and Emily Hamel.
Players’ Guild members got in on the creative process as well.
“We had two read-throughs of the script open to Players’ Guild Members. It was great to get their feedback after each read-through.”
Once the show was cast and in rehearsals, the collaboration with Guild Members continued. Local photographer and videogra-pher Sarah Sovereign and Matthew Hawkins were invited to work with the cast to create poster images and a video promo for the show.
Check out the mood-evoking video footage they shot. It’s dreamy, non-linear and has cool dry ice effects. Perfect ways to get a traditional audi-
ence ready to suspend disbelief.“The play is really quirky,” says
Hamel.“Ainslin is stuck in a dream, and
things get a little weird. I wanted the promotions to reflect the unique mood of the show, and I think the promos have really captured that mood.”
The video promo can be seen on the Players Guild website, alongside Sarah Sovereign’s photographs at www.playersguild.ca/awakenings
Some language and mature con-tent, so audience members should be 16+.
Awakenings, July 11-14, in the Rotary studio hall of the Cultural Centre, tickets $15 by calling 604.391.SHOW, or at the Chilliwack Cultural Centre’s website. Show times are 7:30 p.m. weeknights and 2 p.m. on July 14 and 15.
Awakenings has distinct dreamlike quality
Experience cultural enrichment in Harrison Hot Springs during the 34th Annual Harrison Festival of the Arts.
Here are some highlights for the first weekend, July 6 to July 8.
The special opening concert on Friday is blues diva Shakura S’Aida who wins audiences over with her emotionally powerful songs.
The Evening Concert Series con-tinues July 7 with a performance by Markus James & the Wassonrai.
American bluesman James visited Mali, West Africa many times, where he has written and recorded Blues-influenced music with traditional Malian musicians.
On July 8, one of the brightest young talents to emerge in Cajun, Creole and Zydeco music over the last decade, Cedric Watson and Bijou Creole will get the dance party started. Watson is based in South Louisiana and has immersed himself in French music and language.
Evening Concerts are the only ticketed events at the Harrison Festival and often sell out, say orga-nizers. More at www.harrisonfesti-val.com or call the Festival Office at 604-796-3664.

The first Music and More event of the summer season was Wednesday, in a new location for 2012.
It’s shifted from Central Community Park back to the spot behind the Chilliwack library at Salish Park.
“We’ve been doing this for 25 years,” said Rod Hudson, of the Chilliwack Community
Arts Council. The popular outdoor
entertainment series features an hour-long event at 12 p.m. followed by live entertainment at 7 p.m. every Wednesday for the duration of the series.
“It’s a great way to spend a lunch hour or a casual evening. Don’t forget to bring a lawn chair,” said Hudson.
The afternoon ses-sions are presented by the Association of Community Programmers, while the nights are care of the Academy of Music and the Arts Council.

■ FABER DRIVE THIS FRIDAY
By Ana MacedoProgress Contributor
For the last three years, Debbie Garcia has been the president of the Chilliwack Riding Club (CRC). As a competi-tor, she turns up to win. “That’s the reason that you compete. I’m always trying to do my best but if I lose, I accept it and try to improve for the next time. Competition is great, don’t get me wrong but I’m involved in the organization to make a difference, par-ticularly with youth. We need to give kids the tools that they need to be successful in life,” she said passionately.
Debbie’s passion and drive, although an inherited trait, is also the result of her upbringing. A week after she was born, Debbie was adopt-ed by a loving family. She always knew that she was adopted and it didn’t bother her; she was happy and well adjusted. “I grew up all over the place since my dad was in the air force. We even lived in Germany for a time and eventually returned to Edmonton, as this was our last posting,” she said.
Her father left the military after 20 years of service and decided
to homestead in Buick Creek, a small, rural, farming area about 50 miles from Fort St. John. “By the time that we moved up there, I was already in Grade 8 and the small school house was only an elementary school with about 15 kids which meant that I had to travel to Fort St. John for my entire secondary school career. We were bussed there and lived in a dorm five days a week. The girls were in the bottom dorms and the boys on the top. We had our usual shenani-gans but we became our own little family,” she explained.
The family farm was
very rustic and reminis-cent of the pioneer days. “We only had electricity. There was no running water so we had to haul it in and in the winter, because things froze over, we had to melt the snow. We took a com-munal bath; little kids would go first, then the older ones and finally mom and dad. We had to conserve on water because it was a chore having to haul it in. Oh yeah, this is the way that it was,” she chucked.
Debbie developed a love of horses while living on the farm. “I used to run around with a piece of bark in my mouth as if it were a
bit,” she laughed. Then a friend gave her a horse and they began to orga-nize mini gymkhanas. “We didn’t have horse trailers and had to ride to the event. We had to make sure that every-thing timed out so that we were back home in time,” she laughed.
Although Debbie had always dreamed of becoming a nurse, her desire was put on the back burner and a year after graduating, she married. “My husband, Tom, was seven years older than I was and was working in the oil fields. He had a horrible accident on the job and became a paraplegic as a result. Back then, Fort St. John was not very wheelchair accessible, especially in the winter when there was so much snow.” Tom ended up at GF Strong Rehabilitation Centre in Vancouver and eventually reconnected with a friend who had relocated to Chilliwack. “We came out here and decided that it was a bet-ter place to be given his condition and bought a house in Harrison,” she said. The couple and their young daugh-ter settled in the area but eventually Tom and Debbie separated and he decided to head back up to Fort St. John.
Debbie started up a dog grooming business but realized that it wasn’t enough. She needed

something more in her life and resolved that she was going to become a nurse, something that had been her life-long dream. “I was actually going to move back up north to take nursing but decided to take it here instead.” She enrolled at UFV, graduated from the program and has been nursing for the last 19 years. “I’m in the rehab department now at Chilliwack General Hospital but I’ve worked in basically every depart-ment,” she said.
It was while Debbie’s nursing career was set to begin that she ended up connecting with her biological mother and her extended fam-ily. “My daughter had developed asthma and my adoptive mother wrote to the adoption agency because she felt that it was important to know about my bio-logical families’ medical history.” This set things in motion and soon, Debbie was connected to a larger family. “My biological mother had developed breast can-cer and she wanted to make amends, so it was perfect timing. We got along so well and became so close. We were so much alike,” she smiled. After bat-tling cancer for many years, her biological mother succumbed to the disease and it was Debbie that nursed her to the end. “So many people fear death but you know, there is something so special about it too. There are a lot of special moments that happen through the
process,” she reflected. A year after her biologi-cal mother passed away from breast cancer, her adoptive mother died of lung cancer.
After a time, Debbie re-married and had two sons with husband, Rob. “My love of horses was rekindled when Rob and I bought prop-erty. George McCallum, who was known as Ol’ Pony George, gave us a pony way back when and it just took off from
there,” she chuckled. After her biological
mother passed away, Debbie started up the first Fraser Valley drag-on boat team. “I start-
ed the Spirit Abreast Dragon Boat team and coached them for seven years. I also coached other teams but eventu-ally it was time for me to
pass the responsibility on to someone else. The team is still going strong and I’m pleased about that.” Her focus and goal for now, remains the
CRC. “I retrain and find homes for many horses and I help kids by giv-ing them a chance. I’ve given horses to kids and watched them improve
and grow. It’s impor-tant for me to encour-age youth and that’s the focus for me at this moment. It’s all about the kids.”

A year past and a year in the making was the focus of the 46th Annual General Meeting of Chilliwack Community Services. Close to 60 members, staff and guests attended the meeting on June 26, 2012 held at the Best Western Rainbow Country Inn. Outgoing president, Alex McAulay, recalled the past year as a year of refl ection and a year of repositioning to ready the organization to meet opportunities and challenges head on. Annual budget has reached $6.9 million. Payroll now sits at 120 employees. Active volunteer registration is over 250 individuals. Services are offered at seven CCS operated facilities, in addition to numerous satellite program locations. In preparation for a new strategic plan, a visionary exercise helped paint a broad picture of the direction CCS will aspire to over the next 10-15 years, and from that a new plan evolved defi ning steps to be taken through to 2014.
Following a “meet and greet’ reception, MLA Gwen O’Mahoney brought greetings from the Chilliwack-Hope constituency offi ce, annual report was presented, fi nancial statements were accepted, and Board Directors were elected. Eight staff with 10, 15, 20 and 25 years of consecutive service were recognized for their commitment and contributions to the organization.

addition of Karin Massar as the new Fund Development Offi cer. She recently relocated to the Fraser Valley from Barrie, Ontario and is excited to continue her work in fundraising and resource development.

Frozen Four and Fenway for Chilliwack kidEric J. Welsh,The Progress
For the first time in two years, Nolan Julseth-White is back home.
And the Chilliwack kid is loving it.
The 24-year-old has returned to take part in Chilliwack Chiefs Alumni Week festivities.
He’ll suit up in tomor-row night’s Alumni Game at Prospera Centre (7 p.m., time and date triple verified) and he’ll tee off Saturday in the Alumni Golf Tournament at Cultus Lake Golf Course.
He’ll have some fun, share some laughs with for-mer teammates and reflect on a hockey journey that has taken him to the other side of the continent.
It’s been a wild ride for Julseth-White since he left the Langley Chiefs after the 2007-08 season, and 2011-12 provided plenty to talk about.
“The biggest thing was getting to play hockey at Fenway Park (Boston),” said Julseth-White, who played at Major League Baseball’s old-est stadium in mid-January in the NCAA answer to the National Hockey League’s Winter Classics.
Julseth-White’s Union College Dutchmen faced Harvard in Frozen Fenway 2012.
“It was special for a lot of the guys,” he said. “Dressing in the clubhouse the Boston Red Sox use and walking out onto that field. It was amazing.”
The big blueliner cap-tained his Dutchmen to a 2-0 win in what was, truthfully, a sloppy game. But the game itself was secondary to the experience.
“From the clubhouse to the field is a very long hall-way, maybe 40 yards long,” Julseth-White explained. “And then you go up five steps and see all the fans. We had a lot of Union College fans braving the cold and wind. When I got on the ice, snow was blowing every-where and a gust of wind almost knocked me over my first turn around the net.”
Frozen Fenway helped
launch the Dutchmen into a spectacular second half of the season.
Julseth-White’s crew soared to the top of the ECAC standings at 14-4-4.
They swept the Rensselaer Engineers 2-0 in a best-of-three quarter final, then dis-patched the Colgate Raiders and Harvard Crimson to take the ECAC title.
“The semi-final and final were played at the Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, an old theatre with a ton of his-tory,” Julseth-White said of another once-in-a-lifetime experience. “Winning the ECAC championship was pretty special because it was the first in our school’s histo-ry. We had lots of fans there. In the hotel, there were casi-nos everywhere, so it was a pretty fun time.”
The ride carried on to the East Regionals and wins over Michigan State (sorry Harvey Smyl) and UMass Lowell.
By season’s end, Julseth-White’s crew had a ticket to the NCAA’s Frozen Four tournament.
“We had to pinch our-selves and re-focus, and once we got down to Tampa, the media coverage was unlike any I’ve never experienced before,” he said. “We played in front of 20,000 people against Ferris State and lost 3-1 in a real defensive strug-gle. And that was it. A real abrupt end to the season. It’s overwhelming when you win 10 or so in a row and you feel it’s never going to end. But with a one game knockout, there’s no chance to redeem yourself.”
But the end result shouldn’t diminish what his team accomplished, and how far the Dutchmen came during Julseth-White’s four years in Boston.
In his freshman year of 2008-09, Union College went an underwhelming 9-11-2 and seemed worlds away from contending status.
But the improvement was steady.
Third place at 12-6-4 in 2009-10.
First place at 17-3-2 in 2010-11.
Then the breakthrough.
“Being captain of this year’s team was the proud-est moment of my hockey career,” Julseth-White said. “Before this season, Union College never had draft picks or NHL guys. This sea-son, my roommate, Jeremy Welsh, signed with Carolina and played against Florida the next night. We had two guys picked in the NHL entry draft and we had about seven or eight guys going to development camps.”
Julseth-White’s own hock-ey career is at a crossroads now as he moves on with life after Union College. The next step is right around the
corner, though he doesn’t know yet what it will be.
“I’m just training and wait-ing out this week,” he said. “I’ve had a few phone calls from minor pro teams. I’d like to play in the American Hockey League or East Coast Hockey League, and my agent is working on a two-way deal for me. But I’ve still got lots of work to do. Pauly (Chiefs assistant coach Paul Nicolls) is put-ting me through the ropes.”
The Alumni Weekend will provide a welcome respite.
“I’m excited to see all the old guys,” Julseth-White said. “Mainly the guys I played
with like Riley Emmerson. Sheldon Lee, Josh Lunden, Kyle MacKinnon and the Hunt brothers. But I’m look-ing forward to hanging out with some of the ex-Chiefs I never played with too.”
Julseth-White was still wearing a Chiefs jersey in 2006-07, when junior A was forced out of Chilliwack to make way for the Western Hockey League.
He’s pleased to come back now and see the world the way he figures it was always meant to be.
“I played two years for the Chilliwack Chiefs at Prospera and when we had
to move to Langley it was disheartening,” he said. “I followed the Chiefs in the old coliseum and it was such a special experience for me to play at home. Having them back now is great for the city, and I know that Chilliwack loves its hockey.”
The Alumni Game takes place on the secondary sheet at Prospera Centre.
Tickets are $5 apiece.There are still spots open
for Saturday’s Alumni Golf Tournament, at a cost of $75 per player.
To get more info, contact the Chiefs office at 604-392-4433.

Chilliwack’s Gabe Dekany shot a three-over-par 59 to take the low-gross and over-all title at Tuesday’s Fred Wellsby Junior Divot Tour stop.
The second of six rounds was played
at the Cheam Golf Course in Chilliwack. Undaunted by rain-soaked greens, Dekany birdied the 15th, 16th and 17th holes to secure the win.
Chilliwack’s Mitch Janzen (72) and
Zach Loewen (76) finished fifth and sixth in the low-gross race.
Chilliwack’s Lynden Knodel shot a low-gross 64 to place second in the 10-12 year old division.
Three birdies help Dekany to Junior Divot win

The Chilliwack Chiefs are done for the season, but assistant coach Paul Nicolls remains very busy. In his latest bi-weekly column, the Xceed Training owner/operator talks about eating right to improve performance.
If you’re like most athletes you inevitably will find yourself standing in front of an open fridge or cupboard trying to figure out what to eat in order to play your best.
Your body needs a significant array of nutri-ents before and after a work out – complex car-bohydrates, protein, fat, vitamins and minerals. Lacking any of these could negatively impact performance.
A pre-exercise meal should be built around the intake of adequate carbohydrates and fluids. Most athletes will benefit from increasing their carbohydrate intake slightly during the three days prior to their event.
Eat a good-sized meal three to four hours prior to the event, one that is higher in carbohy-drates and lower in fats than other meals. Light carbohydrate snacks like crackers, bananas or bread could also be consumed before exercis-ing. Drink eight to 16 ounces of fluid with the pre-game meal and the same two hours prior to the event.
Avoid consuming large quantities of fruits and vegetables. These foods (particularly the cabbage family) can lead to gastric distension and stress.
A post-exercise meal should consist of car-bohydrate-rich foods and beverages, to help replenish the glycogen lost during the activity and prepare the muscles for their next activity. Replace the sodium and potassium lost during activity with lightly-salted foods along with fruits and vegetables. Replenish fluids that have been lost by replacing each pound lost during compe-tition with one pint (two cups) of fluid. The best post-exercise beverage should have a 4:1 ratio of carbohydrates to protein.
Let’s examine a typical game-day meal plan, keeping in mind that these choices aren’t set in stone and everybody will have certain foods that work better for them.
The essential point is to find quality base ingredients while avoiding refined sugars and processed foods.
Aim for organic dairy and meats over the processed varieties.
For breakfast try Greek yogurt, berries (choose whichever variety you like), Muesli or granola with almonds, flax and walnuts
For a snack try an apple with almond butterFor lunch, maybe a chicken breast or vegetar-
ian alternative (like hard-boiled eggs), brown rice or whole grain pasta with sauce or garden salad with olive oil, lemon juice and hemp seeds sprinkled on top. Peppers, broccoli, carrots, cau-liflower, or green beans are nutritious options and one piece of medium-sized fruit like an apple, pear, peach, or plum is good.
For another snack, try trail mix (with sunflow-er seeds, pumpkin seeds, hemp seeds, raisins, and coconut shavings).
Have dinner two or three hours before your game and try steel-cut oatmeal with raisins, chia seeds and banana. A recovery shake (immedi-ately after the game) might include high qual-ity spring water with a splash of coconut water, Greek yogurt , berries and mangoes.
For a post-game meal, try one chicken breast, one sweet potato, green salad (look for spinach and kale) with olive oil and lemon juice with sea salt as a dressing
By consuming frequent balanced meals, you optimize your energy levels and help your body to recover and build during rest. Maybe you’re already successfully following this approach. If not, why not give it a shot?
The power of foodYour body needs a significant array of nutrients before and after a work-out, writes Paul Nicolls
Chilliwack’s Pacific Coast Soccer League U-21 men are back in action this weekend, hit-ting the road for games against Penticton and Kamloops.
Chilliwack comes into the weekend unbeaten in three, riding particu-larly high after a 3-0 win over Richmond’s TSS Academy June 27.
Chilliwack got a sur-prisingly stiff test from
the winless squad. TSS came out firing and forced Chilliwack keep-er Jackie Tang to make several early stops. His best came at the 10 minute mark, diving to stop a free kick that appeared labeled for the back of the net.
Chilliwack got on track and opened the scoring late in the first half when striker Zenow Renaerts nailed a free
kick from 18 yards out.Needing a win to stay
alive in the playoff hunt, Connor MacMillan set up forward Scott Delcourt to double the Chilliwack lead early in the second half.
MacMillan struck for one of his own minutes later to wrap up the scoring. The goal was MacMillan’s seventh of the season, leaving him one off the PCSL scor-
ing lead. S i x t h - p l a c e
Chilliwack (3-3-3) faces fifth place Penticton (4-3-2) Saturday before tackling the unbeaten Kamloops Heat (5-0-2) on Sunday.

Obituaries✞BAKKEN
Alice JoyceAlice Joyce
Bakken, born May 13, 1932 passed away at the age 80 years, on Mon-day June 25, 2012. Known to us as mom and to others as Joyce.
Wife of her late husband, Alf Bakken, she will be very sadly missed by her children: Gordon, Beverly, Darrell and Jenny, her brother Donald, her grand daughter Lea and many nieces and nephews. She was raised in Columbia Valley (far-end of Cultus Lake, BC) on the original 1888 homestead of the Kosikar family.
In Columbia Valley where she resided on part of her family heritage homestead on 30 acres; there Joyce and Alf proudly operated the family Campsite, Kosba Place Camp-site since 1970. Many people from all over the world would come to the resort and would crave Joyce’s entertainment as she was always a spectacular host.
Joyce was a Ladies Auxil-iary member of the Royal Ca-nadian Legion since 1966 (46 years), she was also a member of the Colour Party, as Alf Bak-ken (her deceased husband) was a World War II Veteran, they would proudly march to-gether carrying the fl ags.
The stories she shared and social entertainment was loved by all. She enjoyed the family band where she could dance and play the spoons all night long. She was an amaz-ing family cook, and her door was always open to friends and neighbours.
Her smile and laughter will be remembered forever and after. Her heart and love will remain until we meet again.
BENSONEarl Robert
Earl Robert Benson passed away peaceful-ly on June 30, 2012 at Chilli-wack Hospital at the age of 83. Earl was a for-mer Canadian Airlines pilot for many years and enjoyed travelling.
