‘No sentence could ever bring Clare back’
NewsBytes
Mother gives victim impact statement in court Vikki HOPES Abbotsford News
The mom of five-yearold murder victim Clare Shelswell told a Washington State courtroom yesterday morning that she lives every day with the images of her daughter dying in her arms. Sarah Wilson of Abbotsford read a victim impact statement in Mason County Superior Court during the sentencing hearing for Peter James Wilson, 30. He was sentenced to 55 years in prison for the first-degree murder of his stepdaughter on June 27 during a family vacation in Lake Cushman, a recreational and camping area in Hoodsport, Wash. The sentence included two years for use of a deadly weapon – the kitchen knife he used to cut Clare’s throat. Prosecuting attorney Gary Burleson recommended a sentence of 50 to 60 years,

Sarah Wilson appeared at Friday’s sentencing hearing to read a victim impact statement to the court.
while Wilson’s lawyer, Ronald Sergi, recommended 44 years. Wilson did not qualify for the death sentence. Firstdegree murder in Washington State carries a minimum sentence of 20 to 26 years, but Burleson said the “aggravating circumstances” of the case had him seeking a longer sentence. Those factors included that the victim was particularly vulnerable and Wilson was in a position of trust. Burleson said Wilson will not be eligible for parole for 52 years, nor are there any early release options as there are in Canada. He said he did not know whether Wilson would fall under Canadian parole guidelines if he were to successfully apply to return to his home country. Burleson said the Mason County prosContinued on A7
Lifetime driving ban for speeder Motorcyclist pleads guilty Vikki HOPES Abbotsford News
A motorcyclist who raced through Abbotsford streets on Sept. 9, reaching estimated speeds of 170 km/h, has been sentenced to six months in jail and has been issued a lifetime driving prohibition under the Motor Vehicles Act. Derek VanSchaik, 25, of Mission pleaded guilty in Abbotsford provincial court on Wednesday. His conviction for dangerous operation of a motor vehicle came with an automatic three-year driving prohibition under the Criminal Code because it was his second such conviction. However, the superintendent of motor vehicles has the authority to issue a longer term if it is believed to be in the public’s interest.
Charges of operating a motor vehicle while disqualified were stayed against VanSchaik. He was arrested Sept. 9 after the Air 1 police helicopter tracked him heading along Highway 11 from Mission to Abbotsford. He hit excessive speeds, ran red lights and stop signs, and passed drivers on the shoulder. VanSchaik was arrested in the area of South Fraser Way and Bourquin Crescent after he intentionally dropped the Suzuki sports bike he was riding. He has an extensive criminal record – mainly in Abbotsford, Chilliwack and Mission – that includes previous convictions for dangerous driving, impaired driving and fleeing from police. He has also been convicted of breakand-enter, mischief, theft, uttering threats and carrying a weapon.

FINAL BUDGET MEETING The final public information meeting on the city of Abbotsford’s 2011 budget is scheduled for Oct. 28 at 7 p.m. in the Matsqui Centennial Auditorium (32315 South Fraser Way). The public is encouraged to attend, meet with city staff, provide input and ask questions on the new budget. For more information visit www.abbotsford.ca/budget2011
WATER MAIN WORK Abbotsford will spent just over $4 million to replace 5.6 km of watermain and 1.2 km of storm main. A contract was awarded to BD Hall Construction Corp. for the amount of $3,990,917 plus HST for the work. Each year the city replaces approximately five kilometres of old asbestos concrete (AC) mains as part of its commitment to renew old infrastructure. A total of 138 km of AC watermains are scheduled to be replaced in the next 10-15 years.
FERRIES SCRAPPED The two former Albion ferries that were replaced last year by the new Golden Ears Bridge will be sold for scrap. TransLink tried to sell the vessels for $1.1 million each but got no offers and only minimal interest from prospective buyers after posting them on Craigslist and marine industry websites. Officials expect the scrap value will only offset the labour and transportation costs of breaking up and removing the boats, which have been docked since mid-2009. The 150-foot 25-car ferries were built in 1972 and described as being in immaculate condition with new engines installed in the last few years. The last trip of the MV Kulleet and MV Klatawa was July 31, 2009 – a month after the tolled Golden Ears Bridge opened, providing a direct link between Langley and Maple Ridge.

Lodestar forums for parents Sessions address kids, drugs and gangs Vikki HOPES Abbotsford News
Abbotsford Police are holding the first in a series of information meetings for parents next Wednesday (Oct. 27) as part of the Operation Lodestar initiative, the latest in a series of police programs designed to keep kids away from drugs and gangs. The session, for parents of students at Robert Bateman
Secondary and Claybur n Middle School, begins at 7 p.m. at Bateman school. Const. Ian MacDonald said the series will include 12 sessions, enabling police to invite parents of all local schools. One will be open to the public and two will be conducted in both Punjabi and English. Operation Lodestar was preceded by
Operation Impact, Tarnish and Veritas, which involved posters, videos and inschool presentations aimed at students. Lodestar is the first one to focus on parents. It is complemented by a poster campaign featuring a young boy dressed in gangster and prison attire accompanied by the slogan, “When I grow up, I want to be just like Daddy.” MacDonald said the
forums will help educate parents about drugs and organized crime in the community and how they can steer their kids away from that lifestyle. Mayor George Peary, Police Chief Bob Rich, and Sgt. Mike Novakowski will deliver the message. M e a n w h i l e , MacDonald said Operation Lodestar is receiving strong support from the
business and education communities. The posters and fact sheets have been posted throughout the campuses of University of the Fraser Valley, Columbia Bible College, Summit Pacific Colle ge, and Sprott Shaw Community College. MacDonald said this is a great way to get the message out to current and future parents. He said the pro-
gram has also been supported by several local bars and restaurants. “Having the post-
ers in bars, we want people to contemplate (the issues) and we want to engage them in conversation.”
Environmental Assessment of the Proposed Bevan Avenue Wells Groundwater Supply Development Project Abbotsford BC
Open House and Invitation to Comment The City of Abbotsford (Proponent) is proposing to modify the Bevan Avenue Wells (proposed Project). The proposed Project would upgrade the pumping capacity of four Bevan Avenue Groundwater wells to increase the extraction rate to a maximum of 290 litres per second. The proposed Project is subject to review under British Columbia’s Environmental Assessment Act. The Proponent has now submitted its application (Application) to obtain an environmental assessment certificate which is required before any work can be undertaken on the proposed Project. In order to provide information to the public about the Application, and to receive comments from the public, the Environmental Assessment Office of British Columbia (EAO) invites the public to attend an Open House to be held: at: Matsqui Centennial Auditorium Foyer 32315 South Fraser Way Abbotsford on: November 3, 2010 from: 6:00 to 8:30 p.m. At 7:45 p.m. there will be a presentation by the EAO on the environmental assessment process with an opportunity to ask questions about the process. A second presentation will also be given by the Proponent in relation to the proposed Project. If you are unable to attend the Open House, you may still wish to make a written submission. There are 30 days for the submission of comments by the public in relation to the Application. The comment period will begin on October 27, 2010 and end on November 26, 2010. All comments received during this comment period will be considered. NOTE:
The intention of seeking public comments is to ensure that all potential effects – environmental, economic, social, heritage and health – that might result from the proposed Project are identified for consideration as part of the assessment process.

YMCA facility
Should the city pay $15 million to partner in a new YMCA facility?
If the YMCA wants to build a facility in Abbotsford let them pay the entire cost. We have recreation centres owned by the city and funded by taxpayers. The YMCA would be a private facility. Could the people responsible for managing our money please do so responsibly? How about paying down the debt of an under-utilized arena or provide a new pool for the northwest portion of the city?

LAST WEEK, WE ASKED:
Since when does the city have to pay to see if a company can afford to be here? Isn’t the YMCA going to be in competition with the city, offering the same services that the city offers with the MRC and ARC? Hailynuit
Do you believe the long gun registry should be abolished?
$198 million for Plan A, including debt servicing, and $2.6 million subsidy to date, excluding any other cost incurred over 25 years and a $500-million water/sewer bill looming. We should just claim bankruptcy! Nature

Seeking control in the digital world Andrew
Holota
On Point Here’s the scene: I’m sitting in my truck, at an intersection red light. On the corner island is a pedestrian, also waiting for the light to turn in his favour. He pushes the walk button. And then again. And again. And then he’s poking away at it in rapid pulse mode, with a 100-psi forefinger. It was everything I could do to resist rolling down the window and yell at the guy, “Hey! It doesn’t change any faster the more times you punch the button, you doofus!” But I kept my good counsel to myself, the lights finally cycled around, according to their timing settings, and he trundled across the street. As I drove off, I couldn’t help but
wonder if he felt as though his pathological persistence had actually paid off. I think there are people who do believe that the more you push a button, the more attention it pays to the one doing the pushing. You’ve seen them. The obsessivecompulsive button-pushers. They do the same thing with elevator controls. Some have it so bad, they also talk to the closed door or red light. Poke, poke, poke. “Come on, come on ... I’m waiting!” Poke, poke, poke. I want to grab these people by the shoulders, point to the light or elevator panel, and say, “Hello!? It’s a machine!” These are electronic devices. They do not operate with any sense of urgency. Think automated telephone customer service provided by major credit card companies. They are cold, heartless, mechanical things. They are programmed to do what they do. Sort of like Revenue Canada clerks. The guy I was watching at the intersection could have been having a heart attack and was trying to run to the hospital for help, and that crossing
light wouldn’t have cared any more or any less. It would not have cared at all. It cannot care. I would have cared, of course. Especially if the guy’s cardiovascular incident caused my red light to change to green quicker.
By communicating verbally with the device, we are giving it a spark of life, inviting it to emote, to give a darn. In that case, dude, push it again! Hey, we’re all in it for ourselves, right? Actually, there are all sorts of benign obsessive-compulsive behaviours in our increasingly digital world. How many times have you seen people talk to their computers? Maybe you even do it yourself. I suppose when you spend a major
portion of your life in front of a keyboard and monitor, it’s understandable that a personal relationship begins to develop with the device. Sort of like Stockholm Syndrome, except the “kidnapper” is a computer. After we program it – it programs us. I swear a lot at mine. The curser of the cursor, so to speak. Maybe we’re trying to hang on to the final vestiges of humanity, and feel as though we need to develop a rapport – adversarial or otherwise – with the glowing screen and memory cards. By communicating verbally to the device, we are giving it a spark of life, inviting it to emote, to give a darn. Or perhaps, it’s all not so sociologically complex. May we are just slowly going bonkers over our growing lack of control in our tech/mech world. The guy at the traffic light was merely expressing a frustrated, ancient instinct to dominate his environment. “I am man! I am poking! Obey!” That’s actually pretty depressing, isn’t it, little laptop ... laptop, are you listening?

letters Heartened by crime forum Family law corrupt The Abbotsford City Hall Crime Forum, held on the third anniversary of the Surry Six killings on Oct 19, was a tremendous moral booster and enlightening to say the least. It was heartwarming to listen to the statements of Abbotsford Police Chief Bob Rich as he explained some of the failures in the present judiciary and the positive actions he has taken at various levels for the safe-keeping of Abbotsford residents. It was touching to watch the aging retired Provincial Court Judge Wallace Craig’s genuine sorrow as he watched a once well run judiciary drifting off into a gathering ruled by mostly modern-thinking, gutless judges, whose judgments do not deter criminal actions. “Most of the judges with a backbone are dust to dust by now”, he sighed. Steve Brown, brother-in-law to murdered
Abby resident Ed Shellenberg, organized the forum. His remarks about restorative justice met with hostile reaction, and rightfully so. Restorative justice for youth is one of the best things ever. Records prove the Abbotsford Restorative organization is one of the very best in Canada. Please keep up the good work. I left the meeting with a sincere knowledge that, there is hope to upgrade the present shaky judiciary into a well-functioning and fair justice system, that will meet the needs of a modern day society. This will happen as long as people like Bob Ritchie, Judge Craig, the Steve Browns, a caring Mayor George Peary and an active Restorative Justice organization keep plugging away at it all. Somehow, I have no doubt that they will do exactly that. Gertie Pool
Save our ‘choice school’
When I watched closures of other B.C. schools on the news in the past, I could never understand what the big deal was, why all the emotion. If I were an outsider to the currently proposed Dunach closure, I’m sure I would still not understand, or care. But this time I am not an outsider; my family is stuck in the middle of it. I am not a numbers and statistics sort of person, I am an emotional and passionate sort of person. Therefore I feel the need to reach out to the public and beg them to understand the “heart and soul” of Dunach Elementary, and why Dunach families are fighting so hard to keep our school open. Choosing a school for our children was not a simple “go
to the catchment school” decision. For us, choosing a school is about choosing a community, a lifestyle, a certain level of respect and acceptance, an extended family with which we will be deeply involved with as our children grow. Other parents who send their children to “choice schools” would understand this. However, our “choice school” was not “traditional” or “fine arts” or even “private school.” We found a school where parents and staff are deeply connected with high respect for each other, and that in turn shows in the level of respect and acceptance between the teacher-student relationship, and the student-student relationship. In the board’s report, they stated “From an enrolment stand-
There is a culture of corruption in Canadian family law today. Our contract to honour Canadian families and protect our children is breached on a daily basis by child protection agents, duty and legal aid counsellors and the divorce judges who referee family proceedings. A strong family can only take root in a community that meets everyone’s needs. Any courthouse between Chilliwack and Vancouver routinely abuses fathers and their children with consequences for us all that last generations. I want to challenge Canada’s interpretation of Section 7 of the Charter which claims we all have a right to life, liberty and security of person on the basis of New Brunswick v G.(J). 1999. In that child protection case, a
point, Dunach Elementary is no longer viable as a catchment school...”, “...as there are fewer families with young children living in the area.” In Abbotsford, we are given the choice to live where we desire, and send our kids to the school we desire. However, this freedom is taken away from us in the above quotes. Most Dunach families would love to live in the catchment area, but who of us can afford it? Eighty per cent of Dunach students are out-of-catchment, some coming from as far as Chilliwack and Mission. That should say something. Do not take our “choice school” away from us. Leanne Hilderman
judge ruled that taking a parent away from a child is such a physical and psychological trauma for both the parent and the child that the state should offer a free legal aid lawyer to the parent for the trial. I think that’s a bad idea because legal aid lawyers are abusive. But taking a parent away from a child without cause is physically and psychologically traumatic for a child of any age. Taking a parent away from a child without cause during the brief period of childhood is a greater evil. Any judge who wants to take a father away from children should be forced to call that proceeding a child protection hearing with a six-month review period. Kevin Pedersen

After several weeks of testimony in Chilliwack Supreme Court, a second trial for an Abbotsford man originally convicted of attempted murder has resulted in a hung jury. Jurors could not reach a decision in the case of Clay Paul Reeves, first convicted in 2008. A mistrial was declared last Friday. Reeves, 46, next appears in court Oct. 25. His lawyer, Jim Blazina, said it is now up to Crown counsel to determine the next step. Options can include setting a date for a new trial based on the original charges, proceeding with amended charges, or dropping the charges altogether. Crown counsel Carolyn Lawlor said all parties involved will be consulted before a decision is reached on the next step. “We’re still considering what our options are and where we’ll go from there,” she said. Reeves was found guilty in December 2008 for

the attempted murder of John Baird. He was sentenced to 16 years, but was given double credit for time already served, leaving him with 12 years in prison. Baird was found in the 33900 block of McConnell Road on Jan. 15, 2008, after police received reports of gunshots and a man screaming. Baird had been shot six times, suffering wounds to his abdomen, arms, legs and wrist. Testimony at the first trial revealed both Reeves and Baird were involved with drugs, and the victim owed Reeves between $100 and $150. Reeves never admitted to shooting Baird, and the weapon involved was never recovered. A decision issued by the B.C. Court of Appeal in February of this year found the judge in the first trial erred by giving undue weight to a witness statement identifying Reeves as the shooter. The conviction was set aside and a new trial was ordered. Crown counsel did not oppose the new trial, which began last month.

Tougher driving rules snag 1,700 motorists Jeff NAGEL Black Press
More than 1,400 drivers have been nailed with tougher penalties for impaired driving and another 435 have had their vehicles impounded for excessive speeding in the first 20 days of B.C.’s historic crackdown on dangerous driving. Of the drivers sanctioned for driving with a blood-alcohol content of 0.05 or above, 1,239 had their vehicles impounded but in most cases those drivers had blown readings higher than 0.08. In the Lower Mainland, 254 drivers got immediate threeday roadside prohibitions and 363 got 90-day prohibitions between Sept. 20 and Oct. 10. Besides losing their licence and car, motorists face costs of $600 to $4,000 to get back on the road. Speeders caught at 40 kilometres or more above the limit can be impounded for seven days – 30 days on a second offence or 60 days for subsequent violations within two years. Nearly 200 of the excessive speeders were caught in the Lower Mainland. Nearly 20,000 tickets – more than 3,000 a month – have also been handed out provincewide to drivers using cellphones or other handheld devices since a new distracted driving law came into effect Feb. 1. The new statistics came as Vancouver Police Union president Tom Stamatakis warned the steppedup impaired enfor-
cement is eating up police officers’ time waiting for tow trucks and taxis to arrive. Solicitor General Mike de Jong said the number of drivers penalized is “alarming” but he defended the tougher administrative sanctions. “The overwhelming response I have received from peace officers across the province is receptiveness and enthusiasm for the ability and the
Local blitz In early September, Abbotsford has had a total of 45 immediate roadside prohibitions (IRP) over two weekends. Const. Ian MacDonald said that on each weekend – Sept. 25 and 26, and Oct. 2 and 3 – officers came face-toface with about 500 drivers. There were only a few instances where the officers needed to use a roadside screening device, but in 40 per cent of those cases, the result was either a warning or a fail.
option of using a new tool,” he said. De Jong said he doubts the administrative penalties will prove to be onerous for police, noting they might delay an officer 15 to 30 minutes up front, but avoid the need for a full impaired driving investigation that consumes hours that night and potentially days of court time later on. Officers previously issued up to 40,000
24-hour roadside suspensions a year to drivers in the “warn range” of 0.05 to 0.08. According to the public safety ministry, drivers in the warn range are seven times more likely on average to be in a fatal crash than if they have no alcohol in their body. Three impoundments within five years now also force a driver to take a responsible driving course and use an ignition interlock device for a year after ttheir ban is lifted. The rules have b been a new blow to restaurants because many patrons now are unsure whether tthe drink or two they p previously enjoyed dining out now puts tthem at risk. “The public doesn’t understand what 0.05 means now,” said Ian Tostenson, president and CEO of tthe B.C. Restaurants and Foodservices A Association. He estimated restaurants have seen sales drop 10 to 20 per cent in recent months, but attributed that to the combined impact of tthe economy, the HST and the impaired driving crackdown. It’s been easier for downtown Vancouver restaurants, which have more clientele who don’t need to drive, but Tostenson said it’s significantly worse in more suburban areas of the Lower Mainland and rural parts of B.C. Many restaurants are working, in some cases together, to find new ways to get patrons home safely without driving, he said, and some
establishments are starting to offer more low-alcohol drinks.

Back in prison
Abbotsford gets the good life.
Federici has his statutory release revoked again Vikki HOPES Abbotsford News
A man described as a “high risk to re-offend” and who was wanted on a Canada-wide warrant in July has now had his statutory release revoked for the second time. Frank Joseph Federici, 33, is suspected to have been connected to the theft of a vehicle and the possible shoplifting of computers in July of this year, according to National Parole Board (NPB) documents. The documents say Federici was stopped by police on July 22 in a car that had the igniFEDERICI tion punched out, and he was in the company of a person who had run away from a store security officer. No charges were laid and he was instructed by his parole officer to return to the halfway house in which he was living at the time. Federici did not return to the facility in Chilliwack, and a warrant was issued. He was arrested on July 31 in a city which the NPB documents do not identify. His most recent statutory release was re-
voked on Oct. 5. The NPB documents say his case management team (CMT) believes he continues to require “a high degree of supervision and structure.” The CMT concluded that Federici’s risk in the community had increased to an “unmanageable level.” Federici was previously sentenced to 14 years for manslaughter in connection to a 1998 botched home invasion in Abbotsford in which he stabbed Ted Charles Green 11 times. Co-accused Bernard Barton was also sentenced to 14 years. He was released the first time in November 2007 because he had served two-thirds of his sentence and was required by law to be set free. The release was revoked in June 2008 after he admitted to his involvement in drug trafficking, leaving his supervision area and violating a parole condition to abstain from drugs and alcohol. He was released again in May of this year because he had served two-thirds of the time remaining on his sentence. His next statutory release date is estimated to be in March 2011. Conditions imposed upon his release include residing in a halfway house, going to counselling, and not to associate with any people involved in criminal activity or substance use.

Halloween a trying time for pets

Halloween is blessedly uneventful at the Chortyk household. My canine collection – Bob the Labrador, Calleigh the poodle and Sam the shih tzu – are strangely oblivious to the fireworks that punctuate the night sky, displaying none of the anxious behaviour that some of my colleagues report about their dogs on All Hallows’ Eve. One co-worker confined her dog to a separate room last year so that she would be free to answer the door to trick-or-treaters. Spooked by the incessant door-knocking and the odd burst of fireworks outside, the dog chewed the back of a bedroom door until her teeth and gums were bloody. A year earlier, the same dog worked herself into a shuddering frenzy inside her crate. There was

Paw Prints no damage done, but it took hours for the pet to recover from the frightening experience. For many animals, cats included, Halloween is an exceptionally trying time. There are strange people in the neighbourhood and constant traffic at the door, and for several days before and sometimes even after Halloween, fireworks pound the air outside. This can cause animals to panic, putting both pets and people at risk. But with a little preparation,
WORDS TO LIVE BY. . . Cool, trendy, inspirational jewelery.
Halloween doesn’t have to be scary. Here are a few tips to keep your furry friends safe. Keep pets inside: Pets who are inside have fewer opportunities to confront trick-or-treaters. Keep them in a separate room where they can’t hear the doorbell or doorknocking. Turning on a radio or television in the room is a great way to mask any sounds your pet could find distressing. Provide plenty of toys so that their isolation isn’t mistaken for punishment. Think about disabling your doorbell for the night, or, if your trick-or-treaters come in concentrated bursts, wait at the door and greet them before they have a chance to knock. Identification: Make sure your pet is wearing identification. Dogs and cats may try to run away if they feel threatened. Clear, current identification is your best chance to have them returned to you. It’s not OK to say it’s OK: Avoid consoling your pets by saying things like, “it’s OK” or “don’t be scared” in a soft or sympathetic voice. This only reinforces the fearful behaviour and makes your pet think you’re scared, too. Instead, speak in an upbeat manner. Don’t feed treats: Candy can

Keep treats well away from Fluffy and Fido. Visit spca.bc.ca for more information on Halloween pet safety. Lorie Chortyk is the general manager of community relations for the BC SPCA.

Students petition for transit link in Valley University of the Fraser Valley students want a public transit link between Abbotsford and Chilliwack, and on Nov. 1 they plan to take that request to the streets. Members of the UFV Students for Sustainability and the Student Union Society will fill a bus and travel from UFV’s Abbotsford campus, to Chilliwack City Hall and then back to Abbotsford City Hall. As part of the trip a transit support petition, containing more than 5,000 signatures, will be presented to local politicians. “We are asking our elected leaders if they will commit to work towards better inter-municipal public transportation
in the short term so that our communities can develop and grow in a sustainable way,” says petition organizer Daniel van der Kroon. “We really don’t care if it’s a bus,

a train, or a UFO. But there’s enough people driving that route every day that a mass transit option that people know about has to be viable.” According to the
for
organizers of the petition, 17,300 trips are made from Chilliwack to Abbotsford or Mission each day. And 14,800 trips leave Abbotsford destined for Chilliwack.

This was the response from one homeowner when he realized his smoke detectors were expired, incorrectly located and …. Disconnected ! I understand how easy it may be to forget about that small, inconspicuous safety device up there on the ceiling. But the importance of properly installed, functioning, smoke detectors in every home can not be stressed enough. That’s why my technicians often make a point of reminding homeowners of some important facts: • Smoke detectors that are nearing 10 years old must be replaced, as they are no longer considered reliable. • A fire can double in size every 30 seconds, therefore the window of time for a successful escape may be less than three minutes. • Most residential fire fatalities occur at night when the smoke and gasses from a fire dulls the senses and may actually put you into a deeper sleep. • Interconnected smoke detectors with a battery back-up (in case of power-loss) that are hard-wired into your home’s electrical system are the best option, and will greatly increase your chances of surviving a house fire.

The $250-million price tag to run the JAMES sewer treatment plant will not create an immediate drain on city coffers. The figure, contained in the JAMES (Joint Abbotsford Mission Environmental Systems) master plan, is based on a 20-year period. While the city does have to budget for the expenditures, there is no need for cash up front. “We don’t have the money just sitting there,” said Judy Lewis, Abbotsford’s chief financial officer. While the master plan identifies the total amount needed, funds are required and spent on a year-byyear basis. “You have to remember, it’s an expenditure plan.” To explain it in simpler terms, Lewis used the example of planning to run a household for the next 20 years. “If you take out a mortgage, how much are you putting on a down payment?” she asked. Other factors that need to be planned, include what payments you make each month, what source
of income is coming in? How much do you borrow? Are there other expenditures? “You don’t need it all up front,” she said. But in the end, all of the money will be spent. The question is where will it come from. “Some will likely be borrowed,” said Lewis. Other sources of income that can be used to fund the plant include federal and provincial grants, development cost charges and user fees. Sewer user fees are scheduled to rise by 10 per cent next year and each of the following four years. The average home in Abbotsford pays $225 a year for sewer services. That will increase to about $250 in 2011. The high cost of running the plant is due mostly to asset replacement. Under the Public Sector Accounting Board regulations, municipalities need to keep track of tangible capital assets and budget the cost for replacing those assets. The cost of the JAMES Plant will be shared between the cities of Abbotsford and Mission at a ratio of approximately 80/20.

Bidders line up to build biofuel plant Organic food waste to power vehicles Jeff NAGEL Black Press
Metro Vancouver has no shortage of potential business partners who want to build a new organic biofuel plant in Surrey that will turn food waste into energy. Thirteen firms are in the running and they’re to be winnowed down to a short list by the end of the year ahead of a formal request for proposals call. The plant will take 80,000 tonnes of household food waste per year – including kitchen scraps, egg shells, paper towels and pizza boxes – that would be ground up into a slurry and digested to produce vehicle-grade fuel. The resulting natural gas could be used to power local waste and recycling trucks. The plant will be adjacent to the existing Surrey transfer station in northeast Surrey, near 192 Street and 98A Avenue and could be open by late 2012, according to City of Surrey deputy operations manager Rob Costanzo. He’s confident smell won’t be a problem for the plant. “The odour issue is almost non-existent,” Costanzo said, noting a similar organic biofuel plant in Sweden is located next door to a Burger King restaurant. Prospective bidders are proposing a variety
of technologies, including various forms of wet or dry digestion as well as gasification, he said. Any residual material would likely be composted at a different site. Metro already contracts with Fraser Richmond Soil and Fibre in east Richmond to make compost out of part of the region’s organic waste. The organics plant would serve not just Surrey but potentially nearby cities and commercial supermarkets and restaurants. If the Surrey pilot project is a success, more Metro Vancouver biofuel plants could spring up around the region, helping the region meet its aim of eliminating all food waste and other organics from the waste stream and increasing the recycling rate to at least 70 per cent. A significant amount of garbage going to landfills is organic waste, which festers and creates methane that can escape and add to climate change. Surrey has agreed to sell Metro Vancouver the land for the biofuel plant. But the property first must be rezoned from light industrial to heavy industrial, Costanzo said. He said an open house to inform area residents about the project is also being planned for Saturday, Nov. 6. (Details to be posted at www.surrey.ca.) Surrey and other cities around the region are also moving to collect organic waste from all homes, following the lead of Port Coquitlam, which was the first to implement full organics pickup.

Zoo theme ‘a lot of fun’ Calvin Dyck brings Carnival of Animals concert to the Abbey Arts Centre
JOHN MORROW The Abbotsford News
Rachel Bae (left), Rebecca Bill and Lorena Bate will be part of the Carnival of Animals, as will kangaroo Nadia Bojczuk.
Kevin MILLS Abbotsford News
Close your eyes and picture an elephant in your mind! Large, heavy, slowly moving forward. Now what kind of music compliments that image? If you thought bass, you’d be right. The Carnival of the Animals is the latest concert being presented by Abbotsford’s Calvin Dyck. It is a classic portrait of traditional zoo animals, written by Saint-Saens in 1886, for two pianos and an orchestra. However the Abbotsford version of the show will feature 14 local pianists, each pair taking a turn playing a movement. In addition to the original zoo animals, this carnival will feature some Canadian content including a moose, a loon, a skunk and – a lawyer. “It’s going to be a lot of fun. Especially some of the Canadian animals. The loon is just the origi-
nally swan music, but upside down,” explained Dyck. Known for his yearly musical variety shows called Songs, Strings and Steps, Dyck, a violinist, is no stranger to the Carnival of Animals. “We’ve done it before, in 2002.” Dyck decided to bring it back for several reasons. “It appealed to me because of the variety. They are all little, short movements. Each about two minutes long.” That makes the carnival suitable for an evening show and a special school show. “I want the piece to excite the kids and I like the idea of involving 14 people (pianists) from the community.” While the carnival show is shorter and less complex than his usually projects, Dyck still plans to incorporate more than just music. There will be costumes, poetry and humour intermingled with the music.
The program also includes the classic story Ferdinand the Bull, the Brandenburg Concerto #3 featuring the Abbotsford Youth Orchestra. Dyck is also working with Abbotsford Integrated School of the Arts and various students are providing poems, art and dance to enhance the performance. “You won’t see 180 people on stage, but there will still be plenty to see.” He said he enjoys involving the community in his shows, it allows people to take ownership of the project and, more practically, it keeps costs down. “I can’t afford to hire all professional musicians. This way we still have high quality with low costs. We are still able to do shows like this because we have a lot of local support,” said Dyck. The Carnival of the Animals takes place Oct. 28 at 7 p.m. at the Abbey Arts Centre Tickets are available at King’s Music (604-8535996) or at the door.

The wild and crazy musical comedy that won a helmet full of Tony awards when it was first presented on the Broadway stage to rave reviews in 1962. With music by Stephen Sondheim and book by Burt Shevelove and Larry Gelbart “Forum” displays all the elements of a true farce: broad, physical comedy, stock comic characters, puns, mistaken identities, and satirical comments on social class. It tells the story of a Roman slave named Pseudolus and his attempts to win his freedom by helping his young master woo the girl next door. It is directed by Ian

Remembering the Boys Musical revue of war years set for Remembrance Day Ten singers and dancers and a hot jazz combo will present some of the best music from the war years at Matsqui Centennial Auditorium on Nov. 11-13. The show is timely. This year marks the centenary of the Canadian Navy, and the 65th anniversary of Victory in Europe Day and the liberation of the Netherlands. This revue features 35 songs that were popular during the two world wars – songs that have maintained their popularity, not only because of the songs themselves, but also because of the memories attached to them. They will include Over There, Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy, White Cliffs of Dover, We’ll Meet Again and many other favourites. Video footage from the wars will also be included. The show is a tribute to the men and women
of the armed forces who served their countries during the two World Wars, and to their families and friends. It will also acknowledge the contributions of Canadians during many conflicts over the past 60 years. “Remembering the Boys” is presented by Fraser Valley Stage, a non-profit community theatre group comprised of volunteer actors, singers, dancers and other assorted arts and crafts people who share a passion for live theatre. Tickets are available at Prospera Credit Union (West Oaks location) The Reach, or online through the Fraser Valley Stage website at: www.fraservalleystage.com. Tickets are $18 for adults and $15 for students and seniors.

Reach offers Vistas from the CPR The Reach Gallery Museum is presenting the new art exhibit Vistas: Artists on the Canadian Pacific Railway. Organized and circulated by the Glenbow
Museum in Calgary and guest-curated by well-known Canadian art historian and curator Roger Boulet, Vistas features a body of artwork that was the first to reveal the
Canadian West as a majestic and aweinspiring destination. To mark the Vistas opening, CPR presented The Reach with an archives legacy gift to celebrate the 125th

anniversary of the last spike. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In honor of our connected history, we are donating unique items from our extensive collection of vintage memorabilia to a number of the museums and historical societies that play a vital role in sharing Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s diverse history and culture,â&#x20AC;&#x153; said CP president and CEO Fred Green.
Images expressing the CPRâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vision of a sprawling new Canada are featured in Vistas. It offers 95 artworks and photographs from the permanent collections of the Glenbow Museum, Beaverbrook Art Gallery, Brooklyn Museum, Art Gallery of Greater Victoria, Montreal Museum of Fine Arts, Art Gallery of Alberta and from other public and pri-
vate collections in Canada and the U.S. The exhibition has historic relevance to the region, as the development of Abbotsford was stimulated by the building of the CP line from Mission to Sumas, Wash. in 1891. Intersecting the only roadway through the valley, the Old Yale Road, the railway station at that crossing became the site for the
Village of Abbotsford. One visitor to Vistas will get a chance to experience the majestic Rockies first-hand. ViaRail has donated a prize of return trip for two from Vancouver to Jasper (value $4,100). Entry forms for the draw are available at The Reach during the exhibition, which runs until Jan. 9. The winning entry will be drawn on Jan. 10.

Abbotsford News
Zeon Gray was tempted by offers to play professionally in Europe this season, but decided in late August to return to the University of the Fraser Valley.
Gray gets the point Point guard mulled pro offers, but returned to his Cascades family Dan KINVIG Abbotsford News
In conversation, Zeon Gray is apt to draw basketball-related analogies. Attempting to explain what it was like growing up in South Central Los Angeles, an area notorious for its gang violence, the University of the Fraser Valley point guard leans on the game that has taken him far away from there. “It’s like basketball,” he said. “You have to keep your head on a swivel, because you don’t know what’s around the corner.” *** That’s a skill all good point guards have mas-
tered, and Gray is a good point guard. When the 24-year-old blazes up the court, with some hapless opponent in his wake, he’s not staring at the ball. His eyes are up, surveying the scene, evaluating all his options. That mentality nearly drew Gray away from UFV this past summer. After earning Canada West first team all-star honours in his first season with the Cascades, Gray had two concrete offers to play professionally in Europe – one from a team in Hungary, another from Austria. Gray wasn’t being offered
NBA dollars (or Euros) by any stretch of the imagination, but it was still an opportunity to make a living playing the game he loved. And that was tantalizing. With the school year looming, Gray still wasn’t sure whether he’d be coming back to Abbotsford. His absence was conspicuous as the Cascades hit the hardwood for mid-August exhibition games against NCAA foes San Diego and Idaho State. Ultimately, the deci-
sion came down to money versus family. Yes, family. That’s how strongly he feels about his Cascades teammates, and the entire UFV community. “I feel like in one year, UFV really took me in and treated me like their own,” Gray says. “I wasn’t ready to break that bond yet.” *** Family is a recurring theme in the fascinating basketball journey that led Gray to Abbotsford. He learned the game from his uncle, Sean McFarland,

who started him on dribbling drills when he was six years old. “He’d never let me shoot,” Gray recalled with a chuckle. “He’d just make me dribble – stare at a wall, stare at a tree, and just dribble. “He always said I’d appreciate it some day, but I’d be so furious as a kid.” Gray’s greatest asset is his competitiveness – an utter lack of fear. Gray says he got that from his mother, Renee Smith. “She was a single parent, and I saw her struggle and constantly compete to survive, compete to stay alive,” he said. “She did
whatever it took. She was the epitome of hard work. I saw her work multiple odd jobs and sacrifice. “She told me, ‘Stay hungry. Don’t let anyone take anything away from you.’ And that’s like basketball. Either you get it done, or somebody else will.” *** Gang activity in South Central was brought to the cultural forefront in the late ’80s and early ’90s by rap albums like N.W.A.’s “Straight Outta Compton” and movies like Boyz n the Hood. “We have our bright spots, but it is what it is,” Continued on A27

HUSKIES FALL A spirited rally fell short for the Abbotsford Middle School Grade 8 football team, as they lost 16-10 to the Earl Marriott Mariners. Grayson Marquardt dove in for a major in the waning minutes, and Chase Claypool supplied the two-point convert, but the Mariners held on for the win. The rest of the Huskies scoring came courtesy of Alex Pongracz, who tackled a Marriott ball carrier for a safety. Offensive linemen Michael Sabourin and Teis Heemskerk also had strong games for Abby Middle.

Angelo Rea B.Th., M.T.S. Area Manager DIGNITY FUNERAL HOMES
We have heard “do “don’t sweat the small stuff”. I have learned not to stress. “Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to your life? . . . Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. All of us are busy. We sometimes over-extend ourselves. This is not healthy. We take on too much. Yet, we forget that stress does not contribute to the length of our days. We need to enjoy life. We need to appreciate life and be thankful. We need to relax and rest. Rest allows us to re-energize ourselves to appreciate the small things in life. People who worry are consumed with fear and find it difficult to trust
anyone. Planning for tomorrow is time well spent; worrying about tomorrow is a waste of time. We need to make this day count. My mamma died suddenly. My friend took his life at age of 12. My sister passed away at age 58. I can go on and on. What matters most in life is that you appreciate and value yourself and others. Why wait till tomorrow when you can do something today. Why stress and be anxious? I have seen much in 43 years and one thing that I do know is that time is moving on. My encouragement to you is to be at peace. Tomorrow may never come. We have today to stop and smell the roses.
