The food supply at the Abbotsford Food Bank is at the lowest point it has ever been for this time of year.

Executive director Dave Murray said the agency recently had to purchase $15,000 worth of food to restock the shelves.

He said donations were down during the last Christmas campaign, which usually collects enough non-perishable food to last for most of the year.

“We knew in February that we were going to be in trouble,” he said.

By June, the food bank’s supply of staples – includ-ing rice, canned vegetables and pasta – had run out.

But thanks to connections that Kayla Feenstra of Dragonlily Gardens had with farmers in the area, enough fresh produce was donated to last through the summer.

Now, with produce not being grown on a large scale in the colder months, the food bank is back to relying on canned goods.

An average increase of 100 families per month – the food bank currently serves about 4,000 people – has added a further burden on the agency.

An example of the drop in donations was the recent BC Thanksgiving Food Drive, in which items collected in Abbotsford stayed in the community.

Murray said about 16 palettes of food were donat-ed in 2012, compared to half that amount this year.

He said it’s difficult to pinpoint exactly why dona-tions are down, but a major event is in the works to help boost contributions for the holiday season.

The food bank is partnering with the Ramada Plaza and Conference Centre to host a toy drive on Friday, Nov. 29 from 6 to 9 a.m. The event will in-clude a buffet breakfast, Santa, and entertainment, Reba McEntire thrilled a crowd of about 4,000 fans at the Abbotsford Entertainment and Sports

Centre on Thursday night. The country music superstar was appearing here for the second time in three years.

More than 100 community members gathered at a pub-lic meeting to ask Abbotsford Community Services (ACS) and BC Housing about their proposal to build a 21-unit facility to house homeless men in the downtown core.

Concerned community mem-bers and supporters of the proj-ect all gathered at the Salvation Army Cascade Community Church on Wednesday evening to discuss the proposed low-barrier housing facility at 2408 Montvue Ave. – across from ACS.

Concerns were raised about the impact of the low-barrier, housing-first model – meaning the men would not have to be drug- or alcohol-free when enter-ing the facility – and the level of security that would be provided for the facility and the surround-ing community.

Rod Santiago, executive direc-tor of ACS, said the project gives the residents a chance to recover from being on the streets before addressing is-sues of addic-tion or mental health, where they can stay in the facility for up to two years.

Though the men will not be under curfew, Santiago said the site will have 24/7 supervision with a staff member present.

Santiago added that ACS’s pro-posal is only one piece of solv-ing the issue of homelessness in Abbotsford, but will provide a solution for 20 men at a time.

Questions were raised as to why the Abbotsford Downtown Business Association (ADBA), which has opposed the project since its announcement due to its proposed location within the city’s downtown C7 zone – which has a specific set of bylaws that prohibit supportive recovery use – was not on the panel.

ACS responded that the meet-ing was voluntarily organized to allow questions to ACS and the provincial agency BC Housing, who have partnered on the proj-ect.

Mitch Miller, who owns a res-taurant in the downtown core, said he remembers when issues like prostitution and homeless-

ness were prevalent downtown. Miller said he already experienc-es “eat-and-run” customers and is worried that could increase with more homeless people in the area. He said he is skeptical

about the pro-posal and the impact on his business and the safety of his staff, who often leave the restau-rant late in the evening.

K a t h y D o e r k s e n , an ACS staff member, said

if anything criminal occurred, police would be contacted. But for any issues between men in the facility and businesses down-town they would work together to make reparations or solve the conflict.

Jim Burkinshaw, an Abbotsford resident for 51 years, has seen the ups and downs of the down-town core. He said after speak-ing to businesses near a similar project in New Westminster that have not been negatively affect-ed by the addition of supportive housing, he is convinced the pro-posal would be a good addition in Abbotsford.

“I applaud what has gone on in the last decade for improving downtown and I don’t want to go back to the bad days ... which is why I support this proposal,” he said.

Paul MacLeod, president of the ADBA, said their organization shares the community’s con-cerns about homelessness, but the C7 zoning was designed over

a decade ago to give assurance and protection to small business owners to move into the formerly derelict downtown.

He asked how the ADBA can explain to their membership that the city will go back on its word and put supportive housing where they said it would never be built.

ACS and BC Housing were called on to address concerns on secu-rity and the impact to neighbour-ing homes and businesses, but community members also looked for answers from other sources.

Though members of the city and council were not part of the panel, Mayor Bruce Banman was called on to answer questions by Dr. Elizabeth Dow, director of the school of social work at the University of the Fraser Valley (UFV).

Dow said that communities never have enough resources to deal with social problems and Abbotsford needs to look to higher levels of government. She asked Banman if he would consider bringing in other lev-els of government and make Abbotsford a leader in addressing homelessness.

Banman took to the micro-phone, saying that is what he has already been trying to do, adding that solving homelessness is a “monumental task.”

“How you tackle this is one bed and one room at a time,” but said the big issue becomes how to do it and where to put it.

Banman said a lot of people have placed the issue of home-lessness and mental health on the city, when they don’t have the expertise to address the prob-lems without the help of other

groups. He added that the home-less people themselves have to be part of their solution and ready to ask for help, in addition to find-ing other partners.

“It requires the province, it re-quires the federal government, it requires faith-based groups… Everybody has to get together.”

Banman declined to answer further questions from the audi-ence.

Burkinshaw returned to the mi-crophone, pointing out that the province was present in the form of BC Housing, which would con-tribute the $2.4 million capital investment, plus over $200,000

a year in operating fees to theproject.

Naomi Brunemeyer, of BCHousing, said that in othercommunities that work withBC Housing, cities donate theland. After completing two ofthree projects of BC Housing’sagreement with Abbotsford oncity land – the Christine LambResidence and George SchmidtCentre – the third project hadto be chosen with an organiza-tion that owned property in thedowntown.

“We selected, in partnershipwith the City of Abbotsford, thisproject, knowing the site, know-ing the location, and knowing thefact that it needed to be rezoned.”

Though the possibility of find-ing another location has beenproposed, both ACS and BCHousing say a feasible alterna-tive has yet to be presented.

Santiago said he is concernedabout the prospect of choos-ing an alternative site, only toexperience the same situationof other groups and residentscalling for the project to be re-located.

Darryl Plecas, the newly-electedMLA for Abbotsford South, an-nounced at the meeting UFV willhost a panel called EverybodyWins: Positive and AffordableSolutions to Abbotsford’sHomeless Challenge in the lec-ture theatre on Nov. 15 from 7 to9 p.m.

A lineup of residents and community leaders wait for their chance to ask questions about Abbotsford Community Services’ proposal to create a 21-unit facility to house homeless men in the downtown core.

Charges laid in Honduras murder

Fourth gunpoint robbery in 22 days

Tim Vallee of Abbotsford killed one year ago

Convenience store latest target in spree

Vikki HOPESAbbotsford News

A man accused of fatally shooting Tim Vallee of Abbotsford while he was vaca-tioning in Honduras a year ago has been arrested and charged.

The Bay Islands Voice – on the is-land of Roatan – is reporting that Roger Natividad Ruiz Avila, 23, was arrested on the mainland last week after having been at large since the killing on Oct. 17, 2012.

He is now being held in prison awaiting trial on charges of aggravat-ed robbery and “simple homicide.” The homi-cide charge carries a sentence of 15 to 20 years.

Co-accused Eon Carter Stewart, 30, of Roatan was arrest-

ed the day after the murder and was charged with having driven the vehicle used in the fatal armed robbery.

He has reportedly been in custody ever since, awaiting trial.

Vallee, whose full name is Themy Alexandre Vallee-Apostolakis, 34, was nearing the end of a 10-day vacation on Roatan at the time of the murder.

He had been drinking in a bar and, when the establishment closed at mid-night, he and a group of people he had befriended went in search of an after-hours facility.

A cab driver told them about a spot known as La Cueva, located in Coxen Hole, an isolated area not frequented by tourists.

Vallee did not like the place after they arrived, and the group decided to leave.

It is alleged that Avila had been drink-ing in the same bar and followed Vallee and his companions out to the park-ing lot. There, he and Stewart allegedly boarded a white pickup and drove up beside Vallee.

Avila allegedly got out of the vehicle, pointed a gun at Vallee and demanded his iPhone and cash. He is then accused of shooting Vallee in the head.

Vallee was taken to hospital, where he died about two hours later.

A warrant was issued for Avila’s arrest.

Vallee, who was a conservation officer with the Department of Fisheries and Oceans, has been mourned by family and friends in Abbotsford and Quebec.

Vallee had moved to Abbotsford from Montreal about two years before the killing.

Shortly after the murder, his team-mates from the close-knit Sports Zone Boltz men’s hockey team in Abbotsford sported patches with Vallee’s initials, “TV,” in memory of their friend.

Another Abbotsford busi-ness has been robbed at gunpoint, marking the fourth such incident in the city in 22 days.

The latest robbery took place just before 5:30 p.m. last Tuesday at a conve-nience store in the 2100 block of McKenzie Road.

A lone man brandishing a handgun confronted a 21-year-old female employ-ee and demanded cash.

After obtaining money, he ran away southbound on McKenzie Road.

The culprit is described as Caucasian and 5’ 6” with a stocky build.

The man was wearing a grey hoodie with the hood pulled around his face and had a red-and-white ban-dana covering the lower part of his face.

He wore a baseball cap under the hood, sunglasses, light-coloured plaid shorts, light-coloured gloves, and black-and-white running

shoes.Abbotsford Police Const.

Ian MacDonald said there are similarities to this inci-dent and the three previous robberies.

“In all of these incidents, a lone suspect has entered a business with a firearm in hand and wearing a hoodie

with a bandana covering his face,” he said.

“The businesses have had minimal staff and, to this point, no customers in the premises when the suspect commits the robbery.”

MacDonald said despite the fact a lone suspect en-ters the premises, it does

not rule out the possibil-ity that others are involved in the robberies by waiting nearby in a getaway vehicle.

He encourages business owners to “elevate their rob-bery awareness and security practices,” and ensure that video surveillance is opera-tional.

MacDonald said the public is urged to report any suspi-cious activity in and around businesses.

The previous three robber-ies occurred Oct. 3 at a pizza restaurant in the 30400 block of Bluedridge Drive, Sept. 30 at a Subway restau-rant in the 31900 block of South Fraser Way, and Sept. 16 at a McDonald’s in the 3200 block of Mt. Lehman Road.

Anyone with informa-tion is asked to con-tact the Abbotsford Police Department at 604-859-5225, text abbypd (222973) or call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

Tim Vallee of Abbotsford was killed in Honduras last year. Charges have now been laid against the accused shooter.

City to redraftzoning bylaw

Alex BUTLERAbbotsford News

Abbotsford will redraft its “outdated” zoningbylaw to simplify the current system and make iteasier for city staff and property owners to makechanges to properties.

The city has awarded a contract of $175,000 toUrban Systems Limited (USL) to draft the city acompletely new zoning bylaw.

When the District of Matsqui and the Districtof Abbotsford amalgamated in the mid-’90s, thezoning bylaws were merged into one. Accordingto a staff report, the bylaws, dating back to 1985and 1979, didn’t reflect the realities of the newAbbotsford, and pose many challenges for staffand property owners.

The report states the existing bylaw createsadditional workload by using staff time and com-plicating zoning decisions made by council, anda new bylaw would streamline many decisions.

USL will draft the rewrite, as staff have con-cerns about the complexity of the task. The workwill be funded through the gas tax agreementwith three levels of government, which supplies the city with about $3 million each year.

The draft bylaw will eventually go to publicconsultation and is scheduled to be completedby May 2014.

Less than one month since the campus shuttle bus launched, University of the Fraser Valley students have agreed to return to referendum to significantly expand service.

Already the new Campus Connector shuttle service completes over 1,200 passenger trips weekly via its two buses.

In fact, it is so popular that the bus fills up at some point every day – especially the early morn-ing services – and students are left stranded, according to Student Union Society president Shane Potter. For example, there were 22 stu-dents turned away during the week Sept. 16–20.

The Student Union Society will soon launch a referendum to fund one additional bus Monday to Thursday, later runs on Friday on existing buses, and initiate a summer semester shuttle.

Students already pay $6.75 fee annually for the Campus Connector through their student fees.

They will have to nearly triple that to $17.75 an-nually to fund the service expansion.

“This call for more demand, it comes right out of the students. I get emailed, called, and Tweeted, and Facebooked every single day with students that are relying upon the service to get from one campus to another,” said Potter.

He added that students from other municipali-ties, such as Langley and Surrey, are also arriv-ing in Abbotsford and relying on the Campus Connector to get to the Chilliwack campus.

According to Jody Gordon, vice-president of student services, it took Kwantlen Polytechnic University more than 18 months to reach UFV’s ridership figures when Kwantlen introduced its own shuttle bus to move students between the Langley and Surrey campuses.

UFV’s Campus Connector was approved as a

one-year pilot project by the university start-ing Sept. 3. If students support an expansion of service next month, that would be a strong mes-sage to the administration that students want to extend the shuttle service beyond its first year, said Gordon.

Last week, the Fraser Valley Regional District green-lighted a BC Transit express bus to connect Chilliwack, Abbotsford and Langley potentially as early as September 2014.

The planned express bus will not have an im-mediate impact on the UFV shuttle. When an operational start date is confirmed, UFV will reassess its own shuttle service.

SUS member students will vote online in the final week of October on the proposal to expand the Campus Connector shuttle service.

UFV Student Union Society president Shane Potter sits on the new UFV Campus Connector shuttle bus during its inaugural run.

Not just a bell that could be tolling for thee

On the front of a Vancouver daily last week, the headline screamed “TOLL THEM ALL?” in question to a call by various mu-nicipalities, and I’m sure a pile of bike rid-ers throughout Metro Vancouver, to toll all bridges and roads in the region.

All well and good I say, so long as the cy-clists pay the same toll as motor vehicles. After all, their use of road infrastructure is equal to that of a car, albeit with a consid-erably lighter footprint.

However, the motorist and all commer-cial and service vehicles which supply food and other products, already pay a hefty premium to use Metro’s roads and bridges – more than 45 cents per litre in fuel taxes alone.

However, I’m not here to battle bicycle use (I think our fall/winter/spring weather does that nicely enough), rather I ques-

tion why motorists are singled out as the seemingly only source of revenue to pro-vide rapid transit.

If I want a new car or truck, I have to buy it, and pay for its operation. Thus, should not transit users be required to pony up the funds necessary – spread over count-less years, based on “affordable” fares – to provide their rides?

If you want transit then you should be willing, or required as drivers are through gas taxes, to pay a rider fee that contrib-utes not only to the operation, but acquisi-tion, of the transit vehicles.

After all, drivers are already contributing for something they’re not using, so why shouldn’t those actually using transit pay a substantial fee as well?

The argument of course, is that the aim of transit is to get people out of cars. For many that works when there is transit available.

Back almost half a century ago, I lived in Vancouver’s West End. I had a car, and it stayed parked most of the time because it was quicker, easier and far cheaper to ei-ther walk, take a cab or ride the bus. Most trips were no more than a few blocks, and finding a parking spot on the street was

then, and still is today, akin to locating the proverbial needle in a haystack.

Let’s also be clear, I’m not against tolls or transit. I don’t mind contributing to the new Port Mann (though fortunately I rare-ly cross it), and I do remember tolls on the Lion’s Gate and (then) Deas Island Tunnel.

And for anyone who has travelled to the

central Interior, who can forget the $10 tab to cross the Coquihalla.

What I have learned, and Surrey/New Westminster is learning on the Patullo Bridge, is that people will do their damned-est to avoid paying tolls.

The Coq is a prime example, where often you would see four-wheelers pull off at the

Falls Lake exit, traverse the pipeline route and, circuitously, bypass the toll booths.

On the southeast side, enterprising driv-ers with time to spare could also divert well before the Great Bear Snowshed onto the long abandoned KVR right-of-way and eventually emerge at Coquihalla Lakes just north of the toll plaza.

A long, arduous but extremely scenic way of tax avoidance. How do I know?

Because I took both routes on a num-ber of occasions, not so much because I couldn’t afford the fee but as a matter of principle. Back then, I didn’t value time as much as I do now. And by the way, both routes are still there though they were gated or made impassable not too long after the toll avoidance antics were real-ized.

The point however, is that people will try to circumnavigate tolling stations, which means that all those well-meaning, but money-grabbing, Metro municipal politi-cians who want “tolls on everything” may find their residential streets clogged with frustrated commuters who already be-lieve they are contributing enough “to the greater good.”

On the list of things humans need to lead a happy life, surely a well mani-cured, green lawn must be near the very bottom.

Yet, here we are, more than 50 years after Rachel Carson stunned the world with the publication of her book, Silent Spring, and the use of cosmetic pesti-cides continues.

Earlier this month, the B.C. Liberal government trumpeted changes to the rules regulating the use of cosmetic pesticides.

The bottom line is the changes still permit the use of those pesticides.

Why allow the use of cosmetic pesti-cides?

For a province brimming with green, weed-free, pest-free lawns?

Why ban the use of cosmetic pesti-cides?

Because the evidence is mounting that the use of pesticides, including herbi-cides can increase the risk of cancer,

from leukemia and lymphomas to brain cancer, lung cancer, kidney cancer and a few more.

A study by Bassil et al., published in 2007 in the Canadian Family Physician, reviewed the scientific literature on the potential effects of pesticides on human health.

Based on the review, the authors rec-ommended a reduction in the use of pesticides, and based on the results of the study, the Ontario College of Family Physicians recommended everyone, es-pecially children and pregnant women reduce exposure to pesticides.

The Union of B.C. Municipalities, led by then mayor of Kamloops, Terry Lake, passed a resolution supporting a ban on the sale and use of cosmetic pesticides.

Today, Lake is minister of the environ-ment. What happened to the vision? What happened to the conviction?

Silent spring, silent minister.– Black Press

Problem with pesticides

After all, drivers are already contributing for some-thing they’re not using, so why shouldn’t those actually using transit pay a substantial fee as well?

Why are we worryingRe: “Science loses ground to superstition,” (B.C.

Views, Oct. 2.) – It’s truly bewildering to see such a headline above yet even more of Tom Fletcher’s demagoguery towards David Suzuki – one who’s an ardent believer and follower of actual science.

If it’s actual science that Fletcher seeks, why does he conveniently overlook the blatant anti-science thinking and frightening policy of his bird-of-a-feather Prime Minister Stephen Harper?

As one who’s spent some early years consuming fundamentalist Christian preaching and teaching, it’s clear that such theology does not at all concern itself with a healthy, pristine Earth eco-system. For, according to the Book of Revelations, Earth is to eventually be laid complete waste for a consider-able period of time – if not permanently.

So, really, why worry about an unhealthy state of the planet’s environment?

Little Free Library arrivesAn Abbotsford mom has successfully crowd-funded her project Alina KONEVSKIAbbotsford News

Jacqueline Ashby’s home is sunny, modest, and welcom-ing. Walking in to her small liv-ing room by the big window, one could think that the East Abbotsford mom has many more kids than just the one. Every wall and surface is designed with the child’s learning brain in mind, from child-height bookshelves to drawing boards to alphabet fridge magnets.

It’s Ashby’s love of encourag-ing learning and her commu-nity spirit that has motivated her to campaign for a Little Free Library in Abbotsford.

“It promotes literacy. It en-courages a sense of community. A lot of people on the street still don’t know each other. It gets people out and talking to one another,” said Ashby, who holds a doctorate in education from Simon Fraser University.

A Little Free Library is gen-erally a small wooden box perched within the communi-ty, full of books that residents can borrow for free. There’s no sign-out process, no maximum check-out time.

Ashby launched an on-

line fundraising campaign on Kickstarter to fund the $325 project. When the bidding closed on Oct. 9, 2013, a total of 61 backers gave Ashby $791, over double her initial goal.

This is the first such library for the Fraser Valley. The other closest is in Surrey. There are eight LFLs scattered across B.C., and over 10,000 globally.

The support Ashby received online was similarly globalized. Money flowed in from like-minded people from all over Canada and the U.S., and as far

as France, Germany, and Israel.“It’s been overwhelming

to get that kind of support. I know I wasn’t asking for a lot of money, but it meant a lot to me to see that people believed in an idea that I believed in as well,” said Ashby.

With the funds, Ashby is pur-chasing materials to build and install the structure on her front lawn in the serene resi-dential neighbourhood in the hills of Sumas mountain. She is planning for an official launch party in December.

Jacqueline Ashby has crafted her living room into a welcoming learning environment for her three-year-old son.

Board of education revises policiesNew manual up for approval on Oct. 22

The Abbotsford board of edu-cation is inviting public com-ment on a revised set of policies and administrative procedures that will be considered for ap-proval at the next board meet-ing on Oct. 22.

These policies address such things as the student code of conduct, school catchment areas, the naming of school district facilities, and school closures.

They will replace the existing policy manual, which has been in place for several years.

The policies are accompanied by a new set of administra-

tive procedures – for example, for the roles of trustees and the board of education – which have been de-veloped under the authority of Supt. Kevin Godden.

Board chair Cindy Schafer said the new structure “will better position the board to fulfill (our) vision for the dis-trict.

“Our board believes that the primary focus of a school

district is to improve student learning,” she said.

The board of education beganthe process in 2009 to review itsgovernance structure.

This included a complete re-view and reconsideration ofthe policy structure currently in place.

Public comment on the newpolicies and administrative pro-cedures is invited at the schooldistrict website, sd34.bc.ca.

The matter will be on theagenda for the meeting on Oct.22, starting at 7 p.m. at theschool board office, 2790 TimsSt.

Tilt-Up concrete construction has become a preferred method of construction for many types of buildings. Combining the compressive strength of concrete and the tensile strength of steel re-bar, concrete tilt-up construction provides an attractive, durable building solution, lending to many different architectural styles and building applications.

Swing West Contractors Ltd.is experienced in the construction

of many of these, including:

Two decades of history celebrated at BatemanAn appearance by the school’s name-

On Sept. 27, Robert Bateman – the famed wildlife artist and naturalist – was at the Exbury Avenue high school for a series of assemblies with students as part of a two-decade education cel-

ebration. “It was really motivational for our

kids,” said Linda Pollastretti, the school’s vice-principal. “The kids were talking about it all afternoon.”

The following day, hundreds of alum-ni and community supporters visited Bateman Secondary for tours of the facility, alumni basketball and rugby

games, and a barbecue. In the evening, there was a dance and silent auction in support of the school’s outdoor class-room.

Health worker nominated as a ‘champion’An Abbotsford man is a finalist for the

Everyday Champion Award presented by the BC Patient Safety and Quality Council.

Bas Kervel is the manager of facilities and housekeeping at Abbotsford’s Menno Place, which cares for 700 residents.

No jail time for driver in fatal crashFined $2,000 and handed 18-month driving prohibition

Alina KONEVSKIAbbotsford News

A Mission man who rear-ended another ve-hicle, resulting in the death of two people, will not see jail time.

Steven Lineker, 36, was recently sentenced in Abbotsford provincial court to a $2,000 fine and an 18-month driv-ing prohibition.

On Oct. 16, 2010, Lineker rear-ended a Chevy Cavalier on Lougheed Highway, be-tween Manson Street and Dewdney Trunk Road. The Cavalier had stopped to make a left turn. The vehicle ended up being pushed into the opposite lane, where it collided with a Mazda Protege.

Anthony Shaves, 33, the driver of the Mazda, was killed, as was Lenore Hopkins, 76, the passenger of the Chevy. The driver of the Chevy survived after spending months in a coma in hospital.

Crown counsel Wayne Norris argued at the sentencing hearing on Sept. 20, 2013 that Lineker was distracted. He said phone records indicated that Lineker used his cellphone three times in the few minutes surrounding the collision.

Defence lawyer David Forsyth argued that Lineker was using a legal hands-free Bluetooth device for

the calls, and the last call occurred more than one minute before the crash.

Norris had recom-mended a jail term of four to six months, a $2,000 fine, and a four-year driving prohibi-tion.

The defence had rec-ommended a fine, a driving suspension, and probation, acknowledg-ing that if the judge felt a jail term was in order, then 10 to 21 days would be sufficient.

Norris said the judge’s sentence of a $2,000 fine and an 18-month driving ban is appropri-ate given the evidence presented.

Lineker was initial-ly charged with two counts of dangerous driving causing death and one count of dan-gerous driving caus-ing bodily harm. He pleaded guilty earlier this year, after his trial had begun, to the lesser charge of driving with-out due care and atten-tion.

“There is a distinction between ‘dangerous driving,’ and ‘driving without due care and attention.’ The ‘danger-ous driving’ has a much greater mental element to it,” said Norris.

“In this case, the evi-dence disclosed that he was simply being inat-tentive. We started out with charging him ‘dan-gerous driving causing death,’ but as trial pro-

ceeded, the evidence simply did not unfold as we had anticipated.”

The result of this mat-ter is in keeping with similar cases not only in B.C., but across the country, said Norris.

“It’s very few cases where jail is actually given for this kind of offence.”

Lineker declined to address the court when offered the opportu-nity to do so by judge Gregory Brown be-fore the sentence was passed.

Hopkins, who was fondly known through-out the community as “Ma,” helped start the Fraser Valley Toy Run

in 1987 and played a vital role in its success over the next 23 years. She was killed the day before the 24th annual run, but the event pro-ceeded in her memory.

Shaves had purchased a home with his girl-friend not long before the crash, and the two planned to marry.

THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW before you call any electrician

To ensure you are contacting the right electrician, consider this...

Call today!Abbotsford 604-857-8890 Mission 604-826-8810

r TM www.bluecrest.net.

51 Focused or Filler: Most electricians prefer new construction or big projects and consider

home renovations and repairs an interruption to their day. At Blue Crest Electric we focus on the homeowner. We love home renovations and take great pride in our installations. Our broad scope of knowledge and experience means that troubleshooting and problem solving are our specialty.

2 Appointments: Most electricians don’t make actual appointments. Instead, they say something like, “I’ll be there Tuesday” or “some time next week”. Meanwhile you waste a lot of time waiting, wondering if you should risk going out in case he should show up. When you call Blue Crest Electric for an appointment, we arrange for our actual arrival time so you can go about your day with the least amount of inconvenience, and we keep our appointments. Guaranteed.

3 Invoice Overload: This is what happens when you get a ‘ball-park estimate’ or are charged for ‘time & material’ and the electrician gets paid more the longer he takes to complete the job. At Blue Crest Electric we take exception to this practice. We show you the guaranteed exact amount you’ll pay before the project begins. In most cases we will even provide several cost options so you can choose what is right for your budget.

4 Don’t have the parts: Other electricians do not stock their trucks like we do. This usually results in 2, 3 or even 4 trips before your problem is fi xed and is all added to the time charged on your invoice. Blue Crest Electric trucks are stocked with more parts so we can fi x your problem the fi rst time.

5 Guarantees: Ask other electricians if they guarantee their work, and for how long, and you’re likely to get a blank stare or you should be informed of their ‘concrete guarantee’ which lasts as long as they are standing on your concrete driveway. At Blue Crest Electric, your satisfaction is 111% guaranteed. If you’re unhappy with our work for any reason, we’ll redo it. Free. We want you to be more than just 100% satisfi ed. We want you to tell your friends good things about us.

ALL WORK PERFORMED TO YOUR COMPLETE SATISFACTION BY RELIABLE, TRAINED AND EXPERIENCED ELECTRICAL PROFESSIONALS.

Solid start for Heat at homeBerra’s brilliance highlights weekend set vs. Admirals

Dan KINVIGAbbotsford News

The Abbotsford Heat’s first home-ice action of the regular season was

highlighted by a terrific goaltending duel, and Reto Berra more than held up his end of the bargain.

The 26-year-old Swiss netminder went save-for-save with Magnus Hellberg, his counter-part in the Milwaukee Admirals’ crease, and helped the hosts earn three of a possible four points at the Abbotsford Entertainment and Sports Centre.

Berra got the bet-ter of Hellberg and the Admirals on Friday, backstopping the Heat to a 3-2 overtime victory.

But Hellberg got his re-venge on Saturday, lead-ing Milwaukee to a 2-1 shootout win and a split of the weekend series.

“Reto was outstand-ing,” Heat centre Brett Olson summarized. “He made some saves that he probably shouldn’t

have made, and he made the saves he was supposed to make. With that combination, it’s a great thing.”

In Friday’s win, Berra was supported by big-time plays from rookie forwards Turner Elson and Corban Knight.

With the Heat trailing

1-0, Elson scored his first goal as a pro with 4.6 seconds left in the sec-ond period on a terrific hustle play.

After the teams ex-changed goals in the third, Knight notched the OT winner.

The Heat hit the road this week for three

games in three days– Friday and Saturdayat the Oklahoma CityBarons, and Sundayat the Texas Stars. Thenext home dates are Oct.25-26 vs. the Lake ErieMonsters.For more coverage, visit the Heat Central page at

Backups step to forefront

Bateman’s Swanberg, Mouat’s Dodd star on gridiron

Dan KINVIGAbbotsford News

“The Replacements” was the title of a football comedy starring Keanu Reeves, but it could also double as the theme of the weekend for two of Abbotsford’s senior high school football teams.

On Friday, the Bateman T-Wolves lost star running back Ben Cummings to injury in the second quarter of their crosstown clash with the Abby Senior Panthers. But in his ab-sence, Talus Swanberg stepped up, racking up 130 rush yards to spark a 20-6 triumph.

“He had some big shoes to fill, and I think he did an excel-lent job,” said Bateman coach Alfred Brathwaite, whose squad also got TDs from Tanner Friesen (2) and Daniel Mills to overcome a determined Panthers team. “And our defence played an excel-lent game.”

It was similar story

across town at W.J. Mouat Secondary, where the Hawks were missing their own elite rusher on Saturday vs. Rutland – Maleek Irons was away on a family vacation.

But Jacob Dodd picked up the slack, rushing for four TDs and adding a fifth major on a pass from QB Hunter Struthers.

“He’s been a very good outside linebacker for us . . . but he got the oppor-tunity to play both ways vs. Rutland, and he did an outstanding job,” said Mouat coach Denis Kelly, whose team also got big games from Manpreet Chhina (120 rush yards, one TD) and Jake Firlotte (55-yard interception re-turn for a TD).

In other action, the Rick Hansen Hurricanes beat Pitt Meadows 23-7.

Devin DaCosta rushed for 149 yards and a TD on 20 carries, while Alex Ho threw a TD pass to Ricky Bhadesh and ran for a score himself. Brad Atkinson paced the de-fence with seven tackles.

Cascades celebrate top students

Last week, the University of the Fraser Valley honoured 19 Cascades athletes who achieved Academic All-Canadian standards during the 2012-13 season.

Academic All-Canadians achieve a minimum 80 per cent average in their studies.

The Cascades women’s volleyball team won the President’s Shield, emblematic of the varsity squad with the highest GPA, for the fourth time in the six-year history of the award. The team combined for a 3.16 grade point average, proving that academic and athletic excellence is not an either/or proposition – they also won the CCAA national championship.

Academic All-Canadians included Mallory Donen and Brittany Stewart (women’s volley-ball); Nicole Wierks, Sarah Wierks and Tessa Hart (women’s basketball); Danika Snook, Alanna Blumhagen and Kayla Klim (wom-en’s soccer); Koby Byrne, Kree Byrne, Craig Robinson and Sahib Phagura (men’s soccer); Trevor Nickel (men’s volleyball); and Emmett Campbell, Hayden Averill, Lukasz Grabowski, Genevieve St. Martin, Bethany Tait and Stefanie Schoenberger (rowing).

The UBC Thunderbirds edged the Trinity Western Spartans in a five-set thriller in CIS men’s volleyball exhibition action last Thursday at Yale Secondary.

The game featured a pair of Yale grads in UBC’s Ian Perry and TWU’s Brad Kufske, along with MEI product Tyler Koslowsky of the Spartans.

Trinity Western looked to be in control after winning the second and third sets, but UBC bounced back to win the next two and claim the match (25-18, 15-25, 24-26, 25-19, 15-10).

The Eugene Reimer Ravens dropped a hard-fought 24-14 decision to the G.W. Graham Grizzlies of Chilliwack in Grade 8 football action last week.

The Ravens built a 14-0 lead at halftime behind a pair of touchdowns by Anthony Pham, while Arvin Sharma notched a two-point convert, but the Grizzlies rallied after the break. Pham and Sharma picked up player of the game awards for offence and defence, respectively, while Tanveer Kaler was the top lineman.

A youth curling team from the Abbotsford Curling Club won three of its first four matches in the Optimist Junior Interclub Curling League.

The local squad, featuring Talor Mykle-Winkler, Megan Bourassa, Natasha Cummings and Erica Nangle, and coached by Michelle Baratelli, won their first two games on Sept. 30, and split their matches in the second date of the Optimist league season on Oct. 6.

UNDERSTANDING THE 7 DEGREE DIFFERENCEThanks to their special compound, winter tires offer the elasticity required to ensure maximum grip throughout the cold season, regardless of the road conditions. Summer tires can become hard when the temperatures fall below 7 degrees Celsius, thereby losing the fl exibility needed to build up suffi cient grip for braking, starting off, and cornering. Because of their greater suppleness in the cold, winter tires are able to interlock with the asphalt, snow, and ice, even at lower temperatures.

WALDMANNHans

Dr. Hans Waldmann passed away peacefully on Monday, October 7, 2013 with his beloved family by his side. Dad was born in Stettin, Germany in 1920. He moved to Canada in 1952 and went on to become a Radiologist and was the Chief Radiologist at the Westcoast General Hospital in Port Alberni for many years. He also practiced in Comox, Parksville, Cumber-land and Campbell River. Dad was a passionate animal lover for the 92 years he was alive. Throughout his life, he would always take the time to help or save an animal, including stopping on the highway to rescue a German shepherd that someone had thrown out of a truck. Dad leaves behind many people who loved him dearly including his loving wife of 53 years, Mary Ann; his daughters, Claire (Gary) Conrad, Carol (Eric Picard) Waldmann; and his four grandchildren: Caitlin, Carolyn, Kira and Dmitri. His wonderful sense of humour, warm heart and generous spirit will be sadly missed. We love you and will miss you every day Dad. Rest in peace. Donations can be made to the SPCA at http://support.spca.bc.ca/goto/ Hans_Waldmann.Tributes and condolences may be left at:www.hendersonsabbotsfordfunerals.com
