Th e Upper Fraser Val-ley RCMP are remind-ing residents to be alert when asked for money at their door or over the phone.

Chilliwack RCMP has received about 15 complaints of a man showing up at homes asking for money. Agas-siz RCMP also received a complaint of the same nature on Dec. 18. Ac-cording to police, the

man reports that he needs a ride to the hos-pital and money to pay for various things, in-cluding the ambulance or to get a vehicle out of impound.

“Th is person is con-tinuing to use the good nature of people and taking advantage of the season of giving and us-ing this as an opportu-nity to get money from people and steal other

items,” said Const. Ash-ley St. Germaine.

Th e man is described as Caucasian, in his mid-to-late 20s, and about 5’9” with dark hair and a slim build.

Police said the follow-ing steps can be taken to protect yourself from a potential scam:

If you don’t feel comfortable opening the door for someone, at any time of day, don’t

We often hear stories about the good and bad effects about consuming coffee. One idea that hasn’t been scienti cally proven but looks retrospectively at large groups of people worldwide.There is a link between drinking coffee and reducing the risk of type 2 diabetes. It doesn’t seem to matter if the coffee is decaf or not but it is recommended that the coffee be drunk with little or no sugar and milk.

E-cigarettes are not legal in Canada but in countries where they are, there has been a signi cant increase in the number

of youth who have never smoked start to use this new device. This group was almost twice as likely to start smoking regular cigarettes than those who never used e-cigarettes. That’s a concern to health professionals because nicotine is an addictive drug and can have adverse effects on the adolescent brain.

There has been much in the media lately about vitamins and whether they are worth the money. One supplement that is worth it is the one to help minimize age-related macular degeneration (AMD). AMD can

lead to blindness, but good

scienti c studies have show that

formulas containing zinc, lutein

and other products can help

prevent this serious eye problem.

Our pharmacists can clarify which

is the best combination.

There are thousands of different

vitamin formulations on the

market in North America. How

can you tell which is right for you?

That’s our job as your pharmacist

and we’ll be happy to help you

with accurate information to take

some of the guesswork out of

this very popular subject.

Senior Mustangs fall to alumni teamsBarry StewartHope Standard

Over 100 spectators were in the stands for the annual Hope Sec-ondary alumni games last Thursday evening.

Some were parents of the grads — a few with grandkids in tow — coming back to the gym where they’d spent many hours cheering on their sons or daughters. Oth-ers were parents, sib-lings or friends of the current players. All were out to support the school’s basket-ball program and have some pre-Christmas fun.

Madison Kuhn, who graduated last year, was the event orga-nizer.

“I was thrilled with how the games went,” she said.

“We raised $600 which will be divided between the senior

boys and girls basket-ball teams, and will help to pay for tourna-ment costs.”

Spectators were in-vited to make cash donations at the entry door and that’s where most of the funds were raised — but there was also a toonie toss dur-ing the intermission, which raised another $170.

Local businesses were generous with the prizes they offered, said Kuhn.

Participants were given identifying stick-ers for their toonies and they tossed, rolled or slid their coins to-ward the prize cones. Closest coins were the winners.

“It’s always fun to have the alumni — and now I am one — play against the currents teams,” added Kuhn.

“It gives a good op-portunity for the se-

nior teams to practice some of their plays in a setting that is fun, and gives the alumni a good chance to get together and support our teams. This was a great event and we hope it will continue to grow and expand in years to come.”

Senior girls’ coach — and Madison’s dad — Jeff Kuhn said he felt it was a very suc-cessful night… despite ending up on the lower end of a lopsided score in the women’s game.

“I told my girls that everyone was going to play, so get out there and have fun.

“We wanted to give the community a fun experience and contribute to a good feel for basketball in the community. My girls just love playing against their teacher and vice-principal, Tammy Nazarchuk.”

Nazarchuk played for HSS in the 1980s and she contributed six points in Thurs-day’s game, as did teammates Taylor Kjemhus, and 2014 grad Jaimie Peters. Jaclyn McNicol netted eight points and Han-nah Jarvis set the pace with a dozen from the floor.

“I asked Hannah ‘Where was that game when you were in Grade 12?’ and she just laughed!” said coach Kuhn.

In the men’s game, the grads got off to a quick start, giving them a 10-point lead

that they would need at the end. Linden Wil-lock, 2010 grad, led the way for the men with 13 points — but senior Mustang Blake Deschenes was on fire, scoring 16 points… 12 of them from outside the 3-point line.

Deschenes and Ma-nee Warren (10 points) helped the Mustangs win the next two quar-ters but the grads got back on track to seal the win at 42-30.

Senior boys’ coach, Jake Giles, had some time on the court with his squad during the game and said he was really happy with their effort.

“The guys are learn-ing to play with confi-dence, which is what we need.”

The boys travel to Barriere for a tourna-ment on Jan. 9 and 10, then host a nine-team Hoopfest on the Jan. 16-17 weekend.

Hope 4 Hunger launchedKerrie-Ann Schoenit Hope Standard

A new initiative has been launched in Hope to help eradicate hunger.

Tanya Prest founded Hope 4 Hunger, a non-profi t organization, to support Th e Joshua Project and local schools.

“I’m a single mom and the Josh-ua Project has fed us, helped us and supported us in our long journey,” she said. “I just decided that I want-ed to do something for them. It’s important to me since they’ve done so much for us.”

Prest is raising money for her cause through monthly meals on the third Saturday of every month. It’s an opportunity for people to come together for a meal, volunteer or make a donation. Th e fi rst meal, a chilli and hot dog lunch, was held on Dec. 20 at Northwest Harvest Church. Th e next one will take place on Jan. 24.

Prest’s goal is to raise $10,000 to donate to the Joshua Project as well as feed 2,000 children a hot lunch by the end of 2015. In addition to

donations from monthly meals, she’s hoping to raise funds through Hope for Hunger t-shirt sales. She’s currently looking for donations to help pay for the fi rst batch of t-shirts, which will be sold for $10 each.

“People are hungry all the time, not just at the holidays,” said Prest, who has volunteered for Th e Josh-

ua Project and seen fi rst-hand theneed in Hope. “One meal changesthe way a person thinks, feels, itchanges their attitude, it changesthe way they work. It’s a simplething and it doesn’t cost much.”

Re: Nisga’a prove their critics wrong (B.C. Views, Dec. 4).

Tom Fletcher seems to have had an epiphany that’s led to his urging acceptance of Supreme Court of Canada rulings which enabled the cre-ation by the Nisga’a Na-tion of (Fletcher’s words) “a parallel state” in B.C.

Fletcher may never have learned “that two wrongs don’t make a right.”

Th e fi rst long-standing wrong at issue is the sorry treatment of aboriginals in both B.C. and across Canada. Despite sig-nifi cant improvements over recent years, more remains to be done. Th e second wrong is that the Supreme Court of Cana-da now enables a new lay-er of government in B.C.

What’s been created is a “landed gentry” of sorts who’ve in eff ect received authority to exercise sov-ereign powers, and they now plan to establish multiple export-enabling LNG terminals on the B.C. coast.

B.C. taxpayers will fol-

low such developments with interest, particularly if there is no parallel com-mitment by the Nisga’a to assume increasing re-sponsibility for both fed-eral and provincial gov-ernment services as their “parallel state” business plans prove profi table. Th e old adage that “there’s only one taxpayer” could, with Nisga’a concurrence remain a truism.

It’s based on the real-ization that whether for services provided by lo-cal, provincial or federal governments, most voters and elected leaders have long recognized that it’s the voting taxpayer who, over time, determines both government fund-ing levels and program

priorities.Unanswered ques-

tions include: Will this aboriginal “parallel state” acknowledge a responsi-bility to – within its antici-pated capability – partici-pate as a fully functional entity within our national federation? Will it fund a portion of the many pro-vincial and federal gov-ernment services it now receives? Will it commit to creating and fund-ing its self-determined unique government ser-vice programs? Historical antipathy between First Nation, local, provincial and federal agencies indi-cates a need for strong but fl exible leadership at all four governmental levels. In seeking a comprehen-

sive governmental rebal-ancing, we’ll hopefullyavoid historically basedemotional rhetoric sup-porting retributive ratio-nale if we’re to minimizecostly, confrontationalnegotiations.

In B.C., our oft en-en-vied Canadian culturalmosaic is at risk of be-coming a dysfunctionaland tattered societal quilt.

Hunters protest new regulationsTom FletcherBlack Press

As B.C. hunters packed rooms to protest regu-lations giving guide-outfitters and their out-of-province clients a larger share of big-game per-mits, the provincial government argues that the shift is being exaggerated.

The latest increase in the share of guide per-mits to hunt moose, grizzly bear and other re-stricted animals in limited-entry hunting areas of B.C. totals 618 “hunting opportunities” across the province per year, says a statement from the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations. Based on the success rate of hunts for different species, “this model represents a transfer of approximately 186 animals from resi-dents to guides.”

The B.C. Wildlife Federation’s estimate that the wild game allocation policy could result in 5,000 fewer hunting permits for resident hunters under limited entry hunting rules is “not accu-rate,” the ministry says.

Forests Minister Steve Thomson said in an in-terview he made the decision on the latest alloca-tion after a long consultation where the BCWF and the Guide Outfitters Association of B.C. couldn’t agree.

The decision was to provide certainty for guide businesses, but also took away guides’ rights to pool regional game allotments and hunt in va-cant guiding territories.

“There are arguments over the number, de-pending on which base you use, and I expect those arguments will continue,” Thomson said. “At the end of the day we all want the same thing, which is healthy wildlife populations.”

BCWF hosted hunter meetings in Kelowna and Langley last week, and spokesman Jesse Ze-man said hunters were lined up out the door in Langley. He said the latest changes are part of a longer-term shift going back more than a decade that has seen a loss of harvest share for resident hunters.

B.C. hunters are concerned that the share re-served for guide-outfitters is now higher than anywhere else in North America. Under the lat-est policy, that share is 20 per cent for elk, 20 or 25 per cent for moose depending on the restrict-ed region, 35 per cent for mountain goat, and 40 per cent for grizzly bears.

Open season areas for moose and other ani-mals remain in the southern Interior and north-east, where anyone can buy a license and tag to hunt. Abundant species such as mule deer, white-tail deer and black bear have no hunting quotas in any part of B.C.

Zeman said for prized species such as Roos-evelt elk on Vancouver Island, winning a resident tag in the lottery is rare enough to be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. As hunter numbers rebound, they increasingly face the choice to aim for another species, drive long distances to an unrestricted region, or hire a guide.

The latest changes include returning Kootenay bighorn sheep to a general open season for guid-ed hunting. The restriction that only full-curl rams can be hunted remains in place.

Thomson said the population will be closely watched, and harvest limits returned if neces-sary. Zeman said the BCWF is concerned that this iconic Rocky Mountain trophy could once again be over-hunted.

The popularity of hunting in B.C. continues to increase, from about 81,000 licences issued in 2003 to more than 100,000 last year, which means more resident hunters are losers in re-gional hunting lotteries.

BCWF compiled statistics for moose, the most popular big-game target. Moose populations have declined in some areas while both appli-cations from resident hunters and the share re-served for guides has risen.

In 2005 there were 56,000 applications for moose, with only one out of five successful. By 2013, there were nearly 67,000 would-be resident moose hunters, 54,000 of whom were refused a moose tag.

News

Moose are the most sought-after species for hunters in B.C., with harvest restricted by a lottery in most regions. Hunting is increasing in popularity after a long period of decline.

Everyday without youSince you had to go

It’s like summer without sunshineand winter without snow.

I wish I could talk to youThere’s so much I would say

Life has changed so much,since you went away.

I miss the bond between usand miss your kind support

You’re in my mind and in my heartAnd every Christmas thoughtI’ll always feel you close to me

and though you’re far from sightI’ll search for you among the stars that shine

on Christmas night.

Missing you at Christmas, Mom

Love Bonnie
