Transcript of Mission City Record, January 13, 2016
The City of Abbotsford is still worried that the proposed twin-ning of the Trans Mountain Pipeline will cost taxpayers millions of dol-
lars, and it remains concerned that more needs to be done to prevent a third oil spill in Abbotsford.
In its written submissions deliv-ered to the National Energy Board (NEB) Tuesday, the city said that while it neither formally oppos-
es nor supports Kinder Morgan Canada’s proposal to expand its pipeline, it remains concerned about the cost to municipalities, as well as the company’s preparation and response to an oil spill.
The pipeline runs about 42 ki-
lometres through Abbotsford, and Kinder Morgan also operates a pump station and tank farm on Sumas Mountain. Kinder Morgan has proposed tripling the pipeline’s capacity to 890,000 barrels per day.
A standoff involving a man who threatened to blow up his house ended peaceful-ly Monday evening with Abbotsford police taking the individual to hospital for men-tal health treatment.
Around 5:30 p.m., police went to the man’s residence in the area of Mayfair Avenue and Cottage Lane after a report that he had threatened someone.
The 65-year-old man locked himself in, and threatened to use the furnace to blow up the house. Authorities shut off the gas supply.
Officers made contact with the man, and were commu-nicating with him for several hours.
Shortly after 10 p.m., near-by residents reported hearing loud bangs, but the standoff didn’t end until around 11:45 p.m.. The man was taken to hospital.
Pipeline company must do more: city
Police emergency response team members were at the scene of a standoff that ended peacefully Monday night.KEVIN MACDONALD Abbotsford News

An Abbotsford marijuana dispensary must stop selling pot and pot products, a Supreme Court justice ruled Monday in a case that tested the city’s right to deny such dispensaries business li-cences.
Justice Paul Walker found Weeds Glass & Gifts, on Clearbrook Road, required a business licence, which it was denied, in part because of a bylaw barring the use of city land to produce or sell mari-juana without explicit permission.
“This business was operating without a valid business licence and we are pleased that the judge has seen fit to uphold our bylaws in this matter,” Mayor Henry Braun said in a news release. “We expect that the operator of this business will abide by the court’s ruling.”
The store was one of three in Abbotsford operated by Don Briere, who had argued against the order to shut down the busi-
ness because “enforcing laws based on lies and misconception is a misuse of public funds.” He had cited a Supreme Court of Canada case that ruled medical marijuana should be available in edible forms.
In the ruling, Walker said Weeds Glass and Gifts can’t operate without a valid business licence or exemption, must stop
using its location in contravention of the city’s business licence bylaw, and must stop selling pot and pot products by Thursday.
But Briere told The News that he would appeal the ruling and contin-ue operations at his three Abbotsford stores.
“We’re going to appeal it and we’re going to continue to serve the people,” he said. “We’re kind of baffled as to why the city is taking this kind of stand.”
Medical marijuana is legal in Canada, but the only official distribution channel is through a mail-order process over-seen by Health Canada. “Compassion clubs” and dispensaries like Briere’s are
technically illegal, but the laws against them remain unenforced in many com-munities.
There has been no court rulings yet on Briere’s other two Abbotsford marijuana businesses – on George Ferguson Way and South Fraser Way.

Automatic shut-off needed, city arguesThe plan would also add a tank to the Sumas tank facility.
Earlier this year, a study commis-sioned by the cities of Abbotsford, Surrey, Coquitlam, and Burnaby, along with the Township of Langley, found that an ex-panded pipeline would cost the five mu-nicipalities more than $93 million over 50 years. Abbotsford would incur infra-structure costs of $17 million spread out over 50 years, according to the report.
While Kinder Morgan disputed parts of the report in its National Energy Board filings, the city remains confident in its key finding that municipalities will bear a financial cost from an expanded pipeline.
“Our city doesn’t want to bear any costs with the pipeline being constructed in Abbotsford,” said Phil Blaker, the city’s director of building and development en-gineering.
The municipalities say there is a “sub-stantial” time and money cost because it must obtain approval every time it works on infrastructure that cross-es the pipeline’s right of way and some projects also require changes to the pipeline. The report suggests that the present pipeline currently costs Abbotsford around $500,000 in additional expenses every year and an expanded pipeline would add around $336,000 in an-nual costs. To mitigate some of those con-cerns and costs, Abbotsford says it would like to reach an agreement with Kinder Morgan prior to construction, or to have the NEB order the company to take steps that will reduce local expenses.
The city also wants Kinder Morgan to
install more safety valves and increase protections against an oil spill.
There have been two oil spills in Abbotsford in the past 11 years. On July 15, 2005, around 210,000 litres of oil leaked from a section of buried pipe onto land near Ward Road; and on Jan. 24, 2012, around 90,000 litres of oil leaked from a
tank at the company’s Sumas tank facil-ity. In both cases, Kinder Morgan was criticized for its immediate response to the spill.
Kinder Morgan has taken steps to mitigate some of the concerns raised
since the most recent spill, fire chief Don Beer said Tuesday. This fall, the compa-ny brought an Oil Spill Contingency and Response (OSCAR) unit to Abbotsford, which had been a city request for years.
Abbotsford has asked that city first re-sponders be given access to the unit and training in order to speed up a spill re-sponse.
The city is also asking the National Energy Board to order Kinder Morgan to
add more valves to its pipeline and in-stall automatic shut-offs that will stop the flow of oil when a leak is detected.
It is also requesting the NEB to order Kinder Morgan to construct its pipeline through the Sandy Hill neighbourhood by directional drilling that will lessen the disruption to the area’s property owners. The company has already indi-cated that is how it plans to proceed in the area, but an NEB order would make that a requirement.
The city will deliver its oral submis-sion to the National Energy Board Jan. 29 in Burnaby.
■ ■ ■
On Monday, B.C. Environment Minister Mary Polak announced that
after discussions with Kinder Morgan and other companies, B.C.’s final sub-mission to the NEB continues to rec-ommend the pipeline expansion not be approved. But she said that is not the final word.
“We have been encouraged by the num-ber of government and industry leaders who have also taken up the challenge and accepted the need to proceed along our five conditions, but we have not at this time seen evidence in the NEB hearing process that those conditions can yet be met,” Polak said.
B.C.’s five conditions include NEB approv-al, “world-leading” land and marine spill prevention and response, meeting legal obligations to aboriginal communities, and an unspecified “fair share” of provincial benefits from any new heavy oil pipeline project.
Kinder Morgan is hoping for an NEB de-cision to recommend proceeding by May.

Man sentenced for Townline Hill drug traffickingVishal Bajaj receives 18 months in prison
A young man’s substance use and accu-mulating drug debts led him to become immersed in a lifestyle that hurt the community, according to details present-ed Friday in a court sentencing hearing.
Vishal Bajaj, 27, was sentenced in Abbotsford provincial court to 18 months in prison for three counts of possession for the purpose of trafficking, to which he had previously pleaded guilty. Six other identical counts were stayed, as was one count of breaching his bail conditions.
He was given just over five months’ credit for time already served, leaving him with another 13 months of jail time.
Police previously identified Bajaj as among those involved in the ongoing Townline Hill conflict, which involves two groups of young men battling over drug turf in west Abbotsford.
The conflict has resulted in several drive-by shootings and two killings – Harwin Baringh, 18, who was shot in his vehicle on Sparrow Drive in October 2014, and Ping Shun Ao, 74, who was struck by a stray bullet intended for his next-door neighbour on Promontory Court on Sept. 2, 2014.
Defence lawyer David Silverman told
the court that Bajaj, the youngest of five, was pulled into a criminal lifestyle after his father’s death.
He was 17 at the time, and clashed with his oldest brother, who became head of the household.
Bajaj moved out on his own and worked at construction and restaurant jobs before turning to drugs and then to trafficking to support his habit.
“He really had no significant means of support (and) was struggling; simply sur-viving day to day,” Silverman said.
He described Bajaj, whose only other prior conviction was a driving offence, as “very unsophisticated” in his unlawful activities.
“This is not a person who is a hard-ened, drug-dealing criminal. At best, he is an amateur – and not a very good one, in my opinion,” Silverman said.
Bajaj was arrested and charged by po-lice on three separate occasions last year after police watched him selling drugs at his residence and from vehicles at vari-ous locations around Abbotsford.
He was first charged in May following a drug transaction in the area of Upper Maclure Road and Mallard Street. Another man, Iqbal Kular, was also charged, and is still before the courts.
Bajaj was again arrested on Sept. 8 after
police executed a search warrant at his residence in the 30700 block of Sandpiper Drive.
His third arrest was just eight days later, when he and another man, Kuldeep Gill, were arrested in the Safeway parking lot in the 27500 block of Fraser Highway in Aldergrove. Charges against Gill have been stayed.
In all three instances, police discovered cocaine, heroin and meth, as well as drug paraphernalia, cellphones, cash, and “scoresheets” to keep track of drug tabs.
Silverman said the quantity of drugs was “not huge,” amounting to a value of about $600 in each case.
The Crown recommended that Bajaj serve a sentence of 18 months, while Silverman suggested a range of 12 to 18 months would be more appropriate.
Judge Steven Point decided on the high-est end of that range, saying that al-though the drug quantities were “moder-ate,” Bajaj continued to traffic even after his first and second arrests.
He was also critical of the types of drugs being sold, saying they are “highly addictive drugs, damaging to individu-als.”
“Of all the enterprises out there, this is one of the worst in terms of its negative impacts on society,” Point said.

Mission crash takes life of Abby manRCMP asking for witnesses to come forward
One man is dead and another is under arrest after a motor vehicle accident in Mission on Saturday morning.
Mission RCMP are asking for assistance from witnesses regarding the collision which killed an Abbotsford man.
At approximately 9 a.m. on Jan. 9, the RCMP responded to a call of a collision on Lougheed Highway. The accident occurred several kilometres west of the Silver Creek industrial park, between Chester Street and Nelson Street.
A black 2015 Dodge Ram Crew Cab pickup with two occupants was traveling eastbound to-wards Mission when it sudden-ly crossed the centreline and struck a white 2012 Chevrolet van in the oncoming lane.
The lone occupant of the van,
an Abbotsford man in his 60s, was killed.
It is believed that marijuana use was a contributing factor to this incident. The driver of the Dodge truck, a 25-year-old Abbotsford resident, was arrest-ed.
Staff Sgt. Rob Dixon said the investigation is continuing and a charge of impaired driving causing death will likely be rec-ommended by police. Until that time, the name of the driver will not be released to the public. The victim’s name has also not been released.
“We are encouraging anyone with any information to come forward,” said Dixon.
If you were in the area when the accident occurred and ob-served the driving behaviour of either vehicle involved prior to the collision, call police at 604-820-3540.
A fatal two-car collision occurred on Highway 7 (Lougheed Highway) in the area between Chester Street and Nelson Street on Saturday morning.

The City of Abbotsford will close down the homeless protest camp
on Gladys Avenue.“We intend to pro-
ceed to closure of the Gladys camp,” said Jake Rudolph, deputy city
manager. “It’s coming. ”He made the com-
ments at a recent local meeting of the BC/Yukon Association of Drug War
Survivors (DWS), an ac-tivist group advocating for the homeless.
In December, Mayor Henry Braun said the
camp would be dis-mantled sometime around mid-January, once the temporary winter homeless shelter
on Riverside Road was opened and the city re-vised its parks bylaw to comply with the October B.C. Supreme Court
ruling giving homeless people the right to sleep in some public places outdoors.
The shelter opened on Dec. 21, and the parks bylaw is currently being revised.
The court ruling said homeless people have a right to sleep overnight in public spaces if there isn’t anywhere else for them to go, and they can temporarily erect shel-ters or tents, but they must take them down in the morning so they don’t get in the way of others.
The city considers the Gladys camp to be out-side the court ruling be-cause it’s on a city road right-of-way, not a park.
But the lawyer who represented the home-less in court disagrees.
“Other public plac-es were also includ-ed … not only parks,” said DJ Larkin of Pivot Legal Society. “The city is taking a very limited view of what the ruling means.”
The court case began after a group of increas-ingly politicized home-less activists were oust-ed from Jubilee Park in 2013 – a move that sub-sequently spawned the protest camp at Gladys.
The camp has shrunk in footprint since December, but a core group of about 10 res-idents remain. The Riverside shelter, which has been at, or close to, its capacity of 40 peo-ple since New Year’s Eve, wouldn’t be able to take them all. According to local outreach leaders, the DWS and camp res-idents interviewed by The News, the Gladys occupants don’t want to go to Riverside, and they distrust shelters in gen-eral for a variety of rea-sons, including privacy and keeping belongings secure.
Rudolph said, “There are parks where the judge has ruled people can stay overnight,” he said. “We’re trying to find solutions.”
If the city’s interpreta-tion of the court ruling falls too far shy of where Larkin and her clients think it should be, she said there’s a possibility of going back to court.
“It’s up to the city now,” said Larkin.

Police release video about relational violenceGoal is to open discussion about ‘hard topic’
The Abbotsford Police Department (APD) hopes the release of a new video will get young people talking about relationship violence.
The production, called Reveal’ution, pre-miered Tuesday morning during a special showing at W. J. Mouat Secondary, whose stu-dents acted in the video.
The 15-minute film depicts a high school girl involved in a relationship with a boy, whose controlling and abusive behaviour frightens and traumatizes her.
It also shows their friends and how they react to the situation by speaking up and becoming involved.
Abbotsford Police Det. Tonya Dupuis, who works in the domestic violence unit (DVU), said the idea for the production began about a year ago.
“This is a hard topic … It’s heavy and there’s not a good way to do it … but we realized we’re not talking about this enough,” she said.
Dupuis said it’s important for young people to know and understand what a healthy rela-tionship is like and what should and shouldn’t be tolerated.
She said she hopes the film becomes a start-ing point for easier discussions on the topic.
“We want your generation to stand up and say, ‘Enough is enough, and we don’t tolerate relationship violence of any kind,’ ” Dupuis told
the audience attending the screening.She encouraged anyone facing such issues,
or who knows someone who is, to reach out to someone they trust, whether it’s a parent, a counsellor, a police officer or otherwise.
“If we stand by and do nothing, they I think we have a problem.”
Police Chief Bob Rich said it’s estimated that one in four women will be victims of some form of domestic violence in their lifetime.
“The police investigate every night another instance of domestic violence, but that rep-resents just a small percentage of what is really happening,” he said in reference to the number of unreported incidents.
Rich said addressing relationship violence is similar to the tactic the APD has taken with its ongoing presentations about gang involve-ment – trying to get to kids before it happens to them.
He said the DVU regularly holds “respectful relationship” presentations with Grade 10 to 12 students, and the new video will now be included in those discussions.
“It’s our shot at it, rather than doing nothing,” Rich said.
Reveal’ution was created and produced by FireCanvas Productions.
The video can be viewed on the APD’s YouTube channel at youtube.com/user/abbypd. Limited DVD copies are also available through the Abbotsford Police Department.

Published by Black Press Ltd. 34375 Gladys Avenue, Abbotsford. B.C.
Social media gets a bad rap a lot of the time. Often it deserves it.
Critics don’t have to look far for evidence of its – and our – failings. Sites offer a grand showcase of narcissism and misinforma-tion, not to mention a whole host of other negative attributes, including greed, para-noia and racism.
Social media is an easy mark and an easy scapegoat – but really it’s only as good or bad as the people who post things on it.
And many of those individuals are good, basically decent people. Their greatest crime is using social media to share the occasional laugh, a thought-provoking ar-ticle or two, a chunk of positive philosophy, a cute critter or some other thing of beauty – whether shaped by nature, or the hand and eye of an artist.
Sometimes it’s even a vehicle for empa-thy and public spirit – evidence that people haven’t lost their basic, human connec-tion, for all our obsession with technology.
Take the case of a father and daugh-ter from Saskatoon en route to Victoria who lost almost all their belongings when someone stole their rented U-Haul truck
and trailer in South Surrey just before New Year’s Eve.
When their plight was posted on so-cial media, many responded positively by sharing the post. They felt for the family in its predicament – identified with how it would feel to lose everything in the middle of a momentous, and no doubt stressful, household move.
Mainstream media took notice, circu-lating the appeal for information on the missing truck and trailer.
And good came of all the attention. An Abbotsford resident noticed a U-Haul truck apparently abandoned in a parking lot and called police. It turned out to be the miss-ing truck, and while most of the family’s possessions were gone, some irreplaceable photos and other mementos – including urns of family members – were recovered.
It’s worth remembering that something positive can come of the current fascina-tion with social media – particularly the next time we’re tempted to decry it for emphasizing our lack of connection and empathy.
– Black Press

Today I went for a few items at a food store. It just about floored me. The prices had jumped so high.
I truly can’t see how families will manage. Pensioners like my-
self are going to have a terrible time to eat healthy.
The time has come for front yards to be turned into gardens. Years ago in Toronto, most family commu-
nites had front yards full of veggies. We need to take care of ourselves.
It’s so sad houses go so high that only out-siders can afford them.
Harper counted on
oil so badly that now we are in a mess.
You never put all your eggs into one bas-ket. He did. Now we pay for it.

On Jan. 5, my wife and I were at a doc-tor’s appointment on Allwood Street.
We completed, we headed across South Fraser Way on our scooters to the mall for lunch and a bit of shopping before taking a taxi home.
But in the middle of the street, my wife lost her balance and fell to
the ground.Immediately, people
came rushing over to help. I heard one lady say how to lift her.
Now in all this ex-citement, we forgot to thank those wonderful folks.
Even the cars at the intersection waited for us to pass them before they moved.
Thanks again, all you
folks.We’re really blessed
to live in Abbotsford
where people do care for each other.

McCabe loses appeal of BCSC decisionBanned from capital markets, ordered to pay $4.3 million
An Abbotsford man has lost his appeal into a decision that found him guilty of contravening the B.C. Securities Act and or-dered him to pay back $4.3 million.
A panel of the B.C. Court of Appeal ruled on Friday (Jan. 8) that the decision made by the B.C. Securities Commission (BCSC) in July 2014 should be upheld.
McCabe sought the appeal on the basis that the BCSC did not have jurisdiction to sanction him for mis-conduct.
McCabe, 31, was per-manently banned from B.C.’s capital markets in January 2015 for publishing false stock reports in the monthly Elite Stock Report.
BCSC records at the time indicated that McCabe researched stocks, using publicly available information such as websites and
news releases, and, if he thought they had a shot at being prof-itable, he would write about them in his newsletter.
The Elite Stock Report was distributed only by direct unsolic-ited mail in the U.S.
A BCSC panel found that between October 2009 and July 2010, McCabe published “greatly misleading reports” about three companies in order to inflate their stock price.
McCabe argued that because the Elite Stock Report was published and mailed in the U.S., there was no trading or exchange of affect-ed securities in B.C.
The BCSC main-tained that it had ju-risdiction over McCabe because he is a B.C. resident and it was his “authorship of the misrepresentations” that contravened the B.C. Securities Act.
The three judges on the Court of Appeal
panel were in agree-ment that the BCSC
was within its juris-diction to punish
McCabe, saying he wrote some of the tout
sheets from his home in Abbotsford and was
paid in B.C. for his ser-vices.

This piece by Lyndal Osborne is titled Shoalwan: River through Fire, River of Ice. Barbara Zeigler photo
The Reach Gallery Museum (32388 Veterans Way) launch-es its winter exhibi-tions with a free public opening reception on Thursday, Jan. 21 at 7 p.m.
A Terrible Beauty: Edward Burtynsky in Dialogue with Emily Carr presents a selec-tion of works by this renowned Toronto pho-tographer in conversa-tion with paintings and drawings by one of B.C.’s most popular artists.
Though working in different media and over 50 years apart, these artists share a deep concern for their environment and the impact of human activ-ities on the land.
The exhibition is or-ganized and circulated by the Vancouver Art Gallery and curated by its senior curator, Bruce Grenville, who will pres-ent a curator’s talk on April 7.
The Reach also pres-ents Alberta artist Lyndal Osborne’s instal-lation Shoalwan: River Through Fire, River of Ice.
The work consists of 7,500 glass jars, com-bined with thousands of materials gathered from the shores of two rivers on opposite sides of the globe.
The scale of the exhi-bition and the variety of its elements serve to illustrate the biological diversity of each river while also bearing wit-ness to the pervasive imprint of human ac-tivity.
The artist will also be on hand to give a talk and tour of her exhibi-tion on Friday, Jan. 22 at 7 p.m.
Adrift in the Same Pond, the most recent body of work by Langley artist Edith Krause, is a collection of hu-man-scale woodcut prints of plankton and life-sized prints of peo-ple swimming.
The juxtaposition im-plies a sense of equality in terms of ecological importance and under-scores the significance of the tiny plankton to our global ecosystem.
The prints are com-plemented by a digital component featuring
video loops of humans and plankton in aquatic environments.
In Hidden Harmonies, Chilliwack artist Ross Bollerup uses his obser-vations of the humble lifeforms – starlings,
moles, bees and rabbits – that exist in the cracks and crevices of our lives.
His process reflects the complicated, and often unnoticed, com-positions that surround us every day.
The new exhibitions will be on view until April 10, except Ross Bollerup’s, which runs until March 6.

28 YEARSEXPERIENCE!
Langley resident Kirsten Brazier’s goal for the new year is a lofty one. She aims to make sure 2,500 females fly for the first time.
Last year, Brazier’s “The Sky’s No Limit – Girls Fly Too” event at Abbotsford International Airport saw 1,700 females take their first flights.
“It’s my passion to inspire more females to get into the avia-tion world. This work is so important, for the past few years I have set aside my own pro-fessional flying career in order to bring these special events to thou-sands with the end goal of improving gender di-versity in aviation, aero-space, marine and de-
fence,” said Brazier. She has started a GoFundMe account under GirlsFly2 to help cover the costs associated with organiz-ing such a large-scale event.
More than 15,000 peo-ple are expected to de-
scend on the Abbotsford International Airport on March 12 and 13 for the free Girls Fly Too event, the world’s largest avi-ation outreach show of its kind. She holds three world records for the event.
For two days, 10 heli-copters will take first-time fliers up in the sky. The hope, said Brazier, is to get females excited about careers in avia-tion.
“This year is even big-ger and better. I’ve invit-ed the Navy this year, the bomb disposal unit will bring a robot and a bomb suit. RCMP tacti-cal team will be there too,” she said.
“The event takes a hands-on approach to capture the attention of a missing female demo-graphic,” she points out.
There are only around 1,300 female profes-sional pilots in Canada, compared to 23,000 male pilots. The num-bers are even more dismal in aircraft engi-neering and mechanics. In the Canadian Armed Forces, fewer than three per cent of top com-mand positions are held by women.
It’s these low numbers that have irked Brazier since she started flying 23 years ago.
In 2012, while fly-ing helicopters at Yellowknife she got permission from her boss to host a day to fly young women, in an effort to see them bitten by the flying bug. With help, she flew around 200 females.
She brought it to her hometown of Langley in 2014, home to many of her most dedicated vol-unteers. It was a huge success there but out-grew the landing strips. Last year, she moved it to Abbotsford, home of the Abbotsford Airshow.

Campaign provides organ donor awarenessAt age 72, some might
assume Abbotsford resident Jerry Brown is embracing retirement – however, they’d be wrong.
Rather than hitting the golf links, Brown is happily immersed in his busy financial ca-reer while also spend-ing quality time with his wife, children and grandchildren, all thanks to the kidney transplant he received 17 years ago.
“Based on the condition I was in going into surgery, I only had three or four months left to live. The organ transplant gave me a second shot at life,” Brown said. “It allowed me the opportunity to be with my family for many more years. I’m blessed, without ques-tion.”
A passionate advo-cate for organ donation through BC Transplant, Brown was surprised when he was asked to speak with customer
service representatives at the Service BC centre in Chilliwack.
He hadn’t realized that Service BC and BC Transplant are partners in a unique awareness campaign designed to provide Service BC cli-ents with information on organ donation and encourage them to register their decision
to become an organ donor on-site or online.
“I didn’t know what to expect when I walked into the Service BC office. However, I went away so impressed by the enthusi-
asm of this group and their commitment to the partnership with BC Transplant,” Brown said. “The Chilliwack Service BC office is doing an in-credible job of sharing information and en-couraging people to reg-ister their decision.”
During the meeting, Brown shared his per-sonal experiences as a transplant recipient with Chilliwack Service
BC staff. Customer ser-vice representatives Braden Adams and Tara Green were both deeply moved by Brown’s story.
“It was really eye-opening to meet someone who, prior to receiving a kidney transplant, was basi-cally on his death bed,” Adams said. “Hearing about Jerry’s experience first-hand and realizing how grim it must be for people who are waiting for that phone call for a donor organ that might never come was really powerful.”
Service BC staff were struck by Brown’s as-sertion that one organ donor can potentially save up to eight lives.
“His visit was very motivating. It empow-ered us to realize we are making a difference with individuals in our community,” Green said. “Prior to meeting Jerry, asking someone to fill out a BC Transplant form didn’t have as much of an impact as it does now. Jerry’s story put a face on the pro-gram and gave us some-thing important and
personal to reflect on.”Both Adams and
Green are even more mindful of how many B.C. residents wrongly believe they are organ donors, based on their
decision to donate many years ago.
“Many of the people we speak with have an old sticker on their Care Card or their driver’s li-cence that they think
makes them an organ donor. We are there to tell them that that is no longer the case. They must re-register with BC Transplant,” Green said.
All 62 Service BC
centres can now pro-vide information on organ donation and help residents register. Registration can also be done at transplant.bc.ca/

A philanthropic fashion line that takes aim at bullying is be-coming a sensation.
The “Accept Me” logo which adorns clothing and accesso-ries started as a ker-
nel in Kim Radons’s mind last summer on her Aldergrove farm and has since grown to take the Grammy Awards stage in Los Angeles on Feb. 15.
“I started this brand because I firmly be-lieve we should all be
accepted for ‘who I am, how I look, whom I love, and what I be-lieve.’ Individually ,we desire acceptance, yet we are falling short in the reciprocation department,” says Radons, a former long-time Abbotsford res-
ident.She had been deal-
ing with some “pro-foundly painful” is-sues around her work as a children’s advo-cate.
“Then at the end of June it hit me. We need one platform –
acceptance – and it takes care of all of that bullying, racism, and negativity in the world.”
Radons had the idea for a logo and called on an artist friend in Quebec, Colleen Reich, to come up with the
final logo design. It de-picts a person break-ing through the barri-ers of marginalization.
The T-shirts, sterling silver necklaces and jewelry are currently only available on the website acceptme.ca, although Radons is
working on getting it into stores as well.
To that end she got a big break when the 58th annual Grammy Awards accepted her bid to have the Accept Me products included in their swag bags.
“I thought it was a long shot, but I wrote the smallest pitch to the Grammy Awards and got the quickest response. Within 15 minutes they called me and said they loved the message.”
Support of Accept Me-branded merchan-dise enables the or-ganization to provide funds to s e l e c t c h a r i -ties that s h a r e t h e i r primary goal of empow-e r i n g positive growth in the lives of at-risk youth.
Accept Me supports the work of two or-ganizations, Bullying Ends Here and Boys Club Network.
Their websites are bullyingendshere.ca and boysclubnetwork.com.
“Acceptance is not just something that happens; it is a life-long choice that re-quires one to be con-sistent and constant in their practice of compassion and em-pathy. Together we can share this simple yet powerful message.”

The 56th annual Snowball Classic bas-ketball tournament is back at Abbotsford Senior Secondary today (Wednesday), with a total of 12 teams bat-tling it out.
The school’s head coach, Prentice Lenz, said it should be anoth-er great year.
“We have some phe-nomenal teams in this year’s tournament at all levels,” he said. “It’s going to be a really fun environment.”
This is the 11th year Lenz has been involved with the event, and he said it wouldn’t be pos-sible without help from the school and the com-munity.
“From the school’s standpoint, it’s amazing the support we get from the students, staff and administration,” he said. “It’s a great opportunity to host something like this, and the Abby com-munity loves basketball and have been very gra-cious at attending – it really makes it special that the gym is always full. The kids just love coming here.”
Tournament orga-nizers once again are bringing in a top team from the United States, and this year’s visitors are New York’s Mount Vernon Knights.
“I think we’re the only tournament in B.C. that does something like this,” Lenz said, about the American teams. “People like to come out and watch these kids play. Fairfax was incred-ible last year and Mount Vernon should be great too.”
Lenz pointed out that there is also a strong contingent from B.C. at the tournament. The number-one ranked Kelowna Owls are
playing, along with top 10 teams Winston Churchill and Walnut Grove.
“I don’t think Kelowna has lost to a Canadian team yet this year,” he said, pointing out the Owls have also toppled some American teams. “Kelowna is fantas-tic, but Churchill and Walnut Grove are both really good. Yale and Mouat from here have also been playing excep-tionally well.”
As for his team, Lenz said the Panthers are there to learn and com-pete. Chase Claypool is the Panthers’ key player, but Lenz said he’d like to see some of his younger talent step up too.
“Chase is the only re-turning person from last year who played signifi-cant minutes for us,” he said. “We have lots of new players, and this is a great environment for them to test themselves.”

Pilots earn three of
four pointsThe Abbotsford Pilots
continued their hot run, picking up three of a possible four points in a pair of games against the Ridge Meadows Flames on Friday and Saturday.
Abbotsford trav-eled to Maple Ridge on Friday, and started
out strong by building a 3-1 lead after the first period. Hayden Guilderson, Kenessary Kylyshbek and Cole Methorst all tallied for the Pilots.
However, the Flames kept chipping away, eventually tying the game at three at 6:14 of the third period. Ridge Meadows then scored at 3:28 of overtime to earn the 4-3 win.
Abbotsford outshot the Flames 42-34.
The two teams met again at the MSA Arena in Abbotsford on Saturday, and the Pilots had revenge on their mind.
Abbotsford jumped out to a three-goal lead in the first period, and then added four more in the second. The Pilots scored one more time in the third, be-fore the Flames scored a pair of late goals. The 8-2 win is the goal total Abbotsford has scored this season.
Jackson Waniek (three), Kevin Allen (two), Mateo Toledo, Kellan Lavallee and Guilderson all scored for the Pilots. All but three players dressed for Abbotsford record-ed a point.
Abbotsford’s record now stands at 22 wins, 10 losses, one tie and two overtime losses. They dropped out of first place after the weekend, with the Mission City Outlaws leapfrogging them in the Harold Brittain conference.
The club next hosts the Langley Knights on Friday. Face-off is set for 7:30 p.m. at MSA Arena.

It wasn’t easy stopping Brookswood Bobcats star Aislinn Konig, but the MEI Eagles senior girls basketball team did a better job than any-one else at the Eagles Invitational tournament final on Saturday.
Konig, a North Carolina State Wolfpack recruit, was dominant all tournament long, but MEI held the Bobcats to 74 points – the lowest offensive total of the tournament for the pro-vincially ranked num-ber-two Langley squad.
The Bobcats set the tone early, jumping out to a 11-0 lead, and the Eagles never recovered. MEI trailed 42-14 at the half, but head coach Samantha Hawkes was pleased with her young team’s efforts against Brookswood and their tournament overall.
“We set a defen-sive goal to keep them under 80 points and they scored 74,” she said. “Our main focus real-ly was to try and lower their scoring average.”
Brookswood advanced to the tournament final with a 104-48 win over Vernon on Friday and a 96-56 win over Kelowna on Saturday morning. The Eagles posted a 59-43 win over South Kamloops on Friday and a 66-50 win over Handsworth on Saturday morning.
Eagles guard Taylor Cousins led the way with 13 points in Friday’s game, and Hawkes said she and Julia Weiss were key parts to the team’s success.
“They stepped up big for us, especially against Handsworth,” she said. “They’re our leaders and most experienced play-ers and we need that as a young team.”
Hawkes said the win against Handsworth was huge, as the Royals are ranked ninth in the province and the Eagles were an honourable mention heading into this weekend.
“We feel a lot more legitimate because we beat a top-10 team and we proved we can com-pete with the best in the province,” she said. “This weekend was a big turning point for us, I feel like we’re heading in the direction we want to go.”
The senior girls next compete at the Top Ten tournament in
Coquitlam this week-end.
Also on the girls side was the Mouat Hawks, who lost 68-48 to Kelowna on Friday, lost 70-66 to Vernon on Saturday morning and beat South Kamloops 90-53 on Saturday after-noon to place seventh.
The MEI senior boys-
basketball team also had a good weekend, win-ning all three games at the Eagles tournament. The boys opened with a 50-47 win over Bodwell on Friday afternoon, and then bested New Westminster 73-46 on Friday evening.
The boys closed the tournament with a
75-60 win over Burnaby Central. The Eagles were the only team at the four-team tournament to go undefeated. They next compete at the Snowball Classic tournament at Abbotsford Senior Secondary. The Eagles open the tournament on Thursday at 9:30 a.m. against St. George’s.

CBC teams shut out on Vancouver IslandVancouver Island
wasn’t too friendly to the CBC Bearcats teams over the weekend, with all four teams failing to pick up a victory in eight
combined games.The men’s basketball
team came closest on Saturday, losing 81-76 to the Camosun Chargers. The Bearcats had a 44-36 lead at the half, but were
then outscored 25-12 in the third quarter. Si Woo Youn had 23 points and Elijan Calhoun chipped in with 22. Umbori Watson added 16 points and nine rebounds.
The club also lost 104-71 to Vancouver Island University on Friday, with Watson scoring a team-high 14 points.
The men’s team is in seventh place in the Pacwest, with one win and eight losses.
The women’s bas-ketball team fell 80-51
to VIU on Friday, with Harvina Kaler contrib-uting with 14 points. The Bearcats also lost 71-57 to the Chargers on Saturday, as Kaler again led the way with 19 points.
The women’s team sits sixth in the Pacwest, with three wins and six
losses.It was more of the
same for the volleyball teams, as the men lost in straight sets twice to VIU, while the women lost 3-0 on Friday, and then 3-1 on Saturday to VIU.
Both the men’s and women’s volleyball
teams are in seventh place in the Pacwest.
The basketball teams continue on the road on Friday, as they travel to North Vancouver to take on the Capilano Blues. The volleyball teams head back to Vancouver Island on Friday, for games against the Chargers.

Marshall,Canada fall short
Abbotsford volleyball player Steve Marshall and his Team Canada teammates will have to keep fighting in order to qualify for the 2016 Olympic Summer Games.
Canada’s hopes for qualifying early were dashed, after losing in straight sets (25-15, 25-21, 25-21) to Cuba in Edmonton on Sunday night.
A win against Cuba would have clinched a spot at the Olympics in the sport for Canada, something that the team hasn’t achieved since 1992.
Canada, ranked 10th in the world, was the pre-tournament favou-rite, and beat Mexico on Friday and Puerto Rico on Saturday. The win sends Cuba, ranked 15th in the world, to the 2016 Games in Rio de Janeiro.
Canada’s Olympic hopes are still alive, as its second-place finish in the competition sees the squad advance to a second-chance tourna-ment in Japan in May.
Marshall spent four seasons with the Trinity Western University Spartans and won a Canadian Interuniversity Sport championship in 2012, before signing a con-tract with Poland’s Transfer Bydgoszcz in the summer of 2014.
He caught the eye of Team Canada shortly after and began play-ing for the red and white internation-ally. After one year in Poland, Marshall joined Germany’s SVG Lüneburg for the 2015-16 campaign. He also earned a bronze medal as a part of Team Canada at the Pan-Am Games this past July.

integralaw.ca | 604.859.7187
Today’s families come in all shapes and sizes. Many couples may have children from previous relationships, and may not realize the importance of a Will in ensuring those they care about are treated fairly. Others may not realize that after two years in a marriage-like relationship, a partner becomes a spouse and gains signifi -cant inheritance rights.
Under the Wills, Estates and Suc-cession Act, special rights are given to spouses, as well as natural and adopt-ed children (but not step children), in-cluding the rights to inheritance when there is no Will, or to challenge a Will.
Sadly, after the death a parent, the relationship between children and their step parent sometimes deterio-rates.
To avoid a ‘Cinderella’ situation, couples can put in place clear and unequivocal language in their Wills that on the death of one, the other is bound to include the step children in their Will. This is important if a cou-ple owns a home together or plans on giving much of their estate to their spouse. Trust agreements can allow a spouse to remain in the family res-
idence, with the proceeds of the sale distributed as an inheritance. Proper estate planning for blended fami-lies involves planning for incapacity. Families should discuss who should be making key medical and fi nancial decisions.
I sometime recommend giving a spouse and children joint authority. For instance, a medical representa-tion agreement may require the whole family’s input regarding end of life or care home choices.
Similarly, if one spouse brings ex-tensive assets into a relationship, they may want to name both their spouse and a child as joint Power of Attor-neys, with the power to make gifts or pay support to the other spouse. That way both the spouse and child will have a say over which assets may be sold, while ensuring the spouse are cared for.
Whether it is incapacity planning, inheritance, or prenuptial/cohabi-tation agreements, the whole family benefi ts from communication and a written down estate plan.

Strong start for UFV v-ballThe UFV Cascades
men’s and women’s volleyball teams came out of the Christmas break hot, winning three of four games
against the Camosun Chargers.
The women opened on Friday with a three-set sweep (25-18, 25-23, 25-18). The Cascades fell behind 6-0 early in set two,
only to battle back and draw even at 17 to rally late and win. The third set saw UFV jump out to a 20-12 lead, and cruise to the win.
“It’s a great way to
start off the second half of the season,” said women’s team head coach Mike Gilray. “I thought our passing today was the best it’s been all year.

We also did a good job shutting down their best hitter Michelle Zygmunt (UFV and Mouat grad).”
The women continued their strong play on Saturday, disposing of the Chargers in four sets (25-18, 19-25, 25-20, 25-22). Gilray said it was a better effort for his club on Saturday.
“The thing that made it exciting for us was we played such a better volleyball game (than on Friday),” he said. “It was nice to pull out the win last night, but if you look at the stats, it was a sloppy game for both sides – low percentages hitting, bad passing stats. We had a much more consistent game today.”
The pair of wins improve the women to a record of six wins and eight losses on the Pacwest season.
The men also had a strong weekend, pushing the undefeated Camosun Chargers to the brink on Friday, and then handing the Chargers their first loss of the season on Saturday.
UFV went to a fifth and deciding set with Camosun on Friday, and had an 8-6 lead in set five, before falling 15-12 in the final frame. Camosun won 3-2 (23-25, 25-21, 21-25, 25-22, 15-12), and it was the second time this sea-son that the Cascades lost in five sets to the Chargers.
However, that would change on Saturday, as UFV got over the hump and handed the Chargers their first loss (21-25, 26-24, 25-22, 19-25, 15-9) of the season.
“This gives us huge momen-tum and confidence going forward,” said Cascades head coach Kyle Donen. “This is just one game in the second se-mester, and we know if we can string a few more like that to-gether, it’ll mean more when it comes to the playoffs and everything else. For us to beat that team, and to do it the way we did, it’ll mean a lot for these guys.”
The win moves the Cascades’ record to eight wins and six losses, and they sit third in the Pacwest.
Both the men’s and the women’s teams hit the road starting on Friday, when they travel to Nanaimo to take on the Vancouver Island University Mariners.
The next home game for the teams is on Jan. 30, when the College of the Rockies Avalanche come to Abbotsford.

All around the world, students and parents are drawn towards the International Baccalaureate Diploma program for its rigour, its focus on critical thinking, and its preparation for post-secondary study. Over the past many years, The University of British Columbia has been a top international destination for IB students. Since 2003, UBC has conducted numerous studies on how IB students perform in university, evaluating IB student success both inside and outside of the classroom. The results of these studies have shaped UBC’s IB Diploma student recruitment practices and admission policies.
Parents of current and prospective IB Diploma students are invited to attend this information session with Andrew Arida, Associate Registrar and Director of Student Recruitment and Undergraduate Admissions at The University of British Columbia. Andrew will provide an overview of ten years’ worth of research on IB student performance at UBC along with a summary of IB-related research from other universities around the world.

GOERTZENHilda María (Janzen)
Hilda María (Janzen) Goertzen was born on December 28, 1949, in Buenos Aires, Argentina. At the age of eleven, she immigrated with her mother to Wembley, Alberta. Five years later, she, her mother and step-father moved to Chilliwack, BC. There she met Peter Goertzen, who would be-come the love of her life. They were married in 1969 and moved to Winnipeg, where she began to raise her family. The next two decades brought them to Water-loo, Ontario, back to Chilliwack, and to southern Manitoba again.
During these years, she was very involved in the arts. In music, she helped establish the Chilliwack Music Academy, sang in various choirs and ensembles, and conducted children’s choirs. Other artistic endeavours included pottery, calligraphy, folk art, knitting, photography and painting. In 1987, Hilda and her family settled in the Fraser Valley where she began to paint seriously. She also taught piano and voice lessons, explored family history, wrote stories, poetry and songs and, with Peter, developed a passion for travel. From her Rosedale home, she loved to careen through the local countryside on her bicycle. She was always aware of the colours and beauty around her, so prominent in her paintings, her photos and the clothes she wore. For all her inter-ests, her family, friends and unassuming faith were dearest to her. After a fi ve-year battle with lymphoma, Hilda died peacefully at the Cascade Hospice in Chilliwack on Tuesday, January 5, 2016 at the age of sixty-six. She was the loving wife of Peter for forty-six years and mother of Andrea (Byron) and Michael, and grandmother of Zachary and Caleb and sister of Juan. She was predeceased by her parents Johann and Katharina Janzen, step-father Cornie Janzen, and sister Erica Klassen. A celebration of Hilda’s life will be held at Eden Mennonite Church, 46551 Chilliwack Central Road, Chilliwack, on Friday, January 15, 2016 at 2:30 pm, viewing at 11:30 at the church and internment at 1:00 pm at the Chilliwack Cemetery (Little Mountain). In lieu of fl owers, memorial donations can be given to the Mennonite Historical Society of BC or Mennonite Central Committee.
