A Chilliwack man facescharges in connection totwo credit union robberieslast week.

Dwayne Kevin Tomren,45, of Chilliwack, has beencharged with two counts ofrobbery. He was also want-ed on a Canada-wide war-rant for breach of parole.

Last Thursday, a manentered the VanCity creditunion on Luckakuck Way,and passed a note demand-ing money to a teller. Theman left the scene on foot.

Shortly thereafter, a taxicompany called police totell them they had drovea man who fit the suspectdescription to the Chilli-wack Motor Inn.

“Had we not received thecall from the taxi service,he may still be at large,”said RCMP spokespersonConst. Tracy Wolbeck.

Police believe Tomren isresponsible for both theVanCity theft and the rob-bery of an Envision CreditUnion the previous day.

The word leadership getsthrown around a lot in mid-dle and high schools. Parents,teachers, community lead-

ers all hope to turn impressionableteenagers into good-hearted leadersrather than obedient followers.

They want, quite simply, to mouldyoung boys and girls into adults likeJoel Korytko.

Korytko is a graduate of the YouthLeadership Development programrun by the YMCA, which has recentlyawarded its Abundant Asset awardsto dozens of Chilliwack students whowill receive free club membershipsand a chance to join the long-run-ning program.

Since joining the program at age13, the program has had a dramaticeffect on Korytko’s life and his role inthe community.

Now a part-time camp director,YMCA swim instructor, jack-of-all-trades and full-time student, Korytkosays the program gave him the toolshe needs to not only succeed as anindividual, but to contribute to thewider world. Simply, it taught him tolead.

“The program made me into moreof a community-focused person,”said Korytko.

The leadership program doesn’tjust tell youth to lead, he says. Rath-er, it shows them how to do so, givesthem the tools and then throws themin over their heads and lets the youngleaders sink or swim. Leadership stu-dents can assist in swim and fitnessclasses and, eventually, learn to takea leading role in the classes. Youngerkids receive babysitter training whileolder youths learn CPR and first aid.

Participants take part in two hoursof classroom activity a week, and areencouraged to go beyond that andorganize their own events.

Korytko, for example, plannednumerous battle-of-the-band eventsand organized fundraising carwash-es. By the time he graduated from theprogram he was making presenta-tions to rooms full of adults about theYMCA’s theory of personal assets.

YMCA manager Shari West said theprogram gives many kids opportuni-ties they wouldn’t otherwise have.

“Often these kids want to be part ofthe leadership groups in schools andthere’s not enough space.”

She added that it is rewarding towatch young people progress throughthe program and put the skills theyhave learned to use.

“I’ve seen several kids who havegraduated the program, graduatedhigh school and come back.”

Korytko is one of those students. Hesaid putting teenagers in positions ofresponsibility is important, and givesyouths both the tools to lead and theself-belief needed to make a differ-ence.

“It actually shows them that theycan do it,” he said.

“I never had to make a presenta-tion, I never had to plan an event,[before the program] so how could Iknow I could do it?”

Students were nominated for theAbundant Asset awards by a teach-er and notified in June. They thenreceive a year-long membership thatentitles them to free membership andparticipation in the Youth Leadershipprogram. The program is also open toother YMCA youth members.

Th e Cu l t u s L a k e Pa rkBoard has appointed astaff member to deal with

bylaw transgressions in thepark.

Every year park patrol dealswith hundreds of calls in thebusiness district, residentialareas and in Sunnyside Camp-ground, and so staff memberKelsey Paul has been assignedthe task of dealing with bylawissues in the park, according toa press release issued Friday.

Paul will target parking, alco-hol being consumed in public,and animal control in the busi-ness and residential areas.

Park patrol reminds visitorsand residents to Cultus Lake topark in designated areas pro-vided for the activity that bringsthem to Cultus. There is nopublic parking in the residen-tial areas and the plaza is forcustomer parking only.

Visitors are asked to use thetwo pay-parking lots to avoidtickets or being towed. The $5charge for the two parking lotsis used to partially offset thecosts of maintaining publicareas.

Dog owners are asked tokeep dogs on-leash, off thewharves and beaches, and topick up after pets. The parkboard reminds residents thereis a public dog swim area at theend of Sunnyside Boulevardand an off-leash park behindthe plaza.

The RCMP will work closelywith park patrol and bylawenforcement to ensure thatthere is no consumption ofalcohol in the public areas.

Paul will be responsible forall bylaw related concerns andfollow-up and can be reachedfrom 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Wednes-day through Sunday at 604-845-4018.

Gr a v e l r e m o v a lo p e r a t i o n s h a v ewrapped up for the

season on the Fraser River,but on the Vedder Riverremovals are set to beginJuly 15.

A t i t s l a s t m e e t i n g ,Chil l iwack city councila w a r d e d c o n t r a c t s t oUniversal Contracting toremove 36,700 cubic metresof gravel from two city-owned bars in the VedderRiver for flood protectionpurposes.

There is a total of 138,400c u b i c m e t re s o f g ra v e lproposed to be removedfrom eight si tes in theVedder River and VedderCanal at sites owned byChilliwack, Abbotsford andon Crown land this yearbetween July 15 and Sept.15.

In addition to the twoc o n t r a c t s a w a r d e d a tcouncil, a further 21,700of cubic metres will beremoved from CommunityBar, which is on city land.Because of required travelon portions of the westdike being upgraded in the

summer, the contract herewas negotiated directly withthe contractor at a price of$2 per cubic metre and isintended to be used for dikeupgrades.

Staff told council therewas only one response tothe tender to remove gravelfrom the other two sites thisyear.

Universal Contracting willpay 30 cents per cubic metrefor gravel from GreendaleBar and 65 cents per cubicmetre for Yarrow Bar.

“The local gravel supplycurrently exceeds demandand therefore interest in theVedder River material wasvery low,” the staff reportsaid.

The gravel removals in theVedder River are done everyeven-numbered year, ratherthan every year, to reducepotential impacts to pinksalmon.

At o n e Crow n s i t e a tRailway Bar, just east ofthe Southern Rail bridge,pedestr ian and vehicleaccess along the Rotary Trailwill be affected.

The public will be notifiedof any temporary accessrestrictions, according tothe staff report.

Residents who have complainedthis year about Fraser River grav-el trucks and the damage they

cause on Chilliwack roads are in formore next year.

The provincial government wants toremove up to 230,000 cubic metres ofgravel from local bars in the Fraser Riv-er and city council agreed to supportthe province’s 2011 gravel managementprogram at the July 5 meeting.

Long a controversial subject, gravelis of great value to the constructionindustry yet the provincial governmentand the city claim gravel removal isdone for flood protection only.

Some, including a hydraulic con-sultant hired by the Department ofFisheries and Oceans, have said gravelremoval has trivial impact on river lev-els. But for years other biologists andenvironmental organizations have crit-icized the gravel removals as nothingbut a “gravel grab,” claiming that fishspawning grounds are destroyed.

Coun. Diane Janzen was the lonevoice of opposition to a city of Chilli-wack staff recommendation Monday to

support the province’s gravel removalplans for 2011 from the Fraser River inlocations in Chilliwack.

Janzen pointed to an auditor gen-eral report from 2009 that upheld con-cerns from conservation groups whosay gravel removal has killed millionsof juvenile pink salmon and had donelittle to reduce flood risk.

“[I] spent some time on the auditorgeneral’s report that absolutely blast-ed the gravel removal program for notholding up its end of the deal,” shesaid. “What is the difference betweenhow they are managing the fisher-ies this year and how they plan nextyear?”

Assistant manager of environmentalservices Tara Friesen, who presentedthe staff report, didn’t have an answerand suggested Janzen’s question was forEmergency Management B.C. (EMBC).

As part of her presentation, Friesencalled gravel “management . . . a keycomponent of flood protection on theFraser River.”

EMBC is required to monitor thegravel removals, and this year a whitesturgeon sampling program was add-ed as a new requirement at a cost of$275,000.

Friesen said that during the two pre-vious gravel removal programs, cityroads suffered “considerable damage,”beyond EMBC’s budget to cover roadrepairs.

The city levies a 50-cent-per-cubicmetre fee on gravel operators but thisdoesn’t cover the total cost of damage.

Despite this cost to the city, Friesen’s

report concluded that failure to removethe gravel would require future dikeupgrades, which would cost more thanroad repairs.

Council agreed to support the prov-ince’s 2011 plan under three condi-tions: that the operator or the provincework with city to use routes that mini-mize damage, and that only highway-legal trucks be used on roads.

Coun. Pat Clark proposed the thirdcondition to send a report to EMBCafter the 2011 gravel removals on thedamage caused to local roads.

Janzen opposed the amendmentand the council move to support thegravel program because of uncertaintyover environmental impacts, but alsobecause of the lack of action to dealwith damage to roads.

“When I read words like ‘worktowards a long-term solution’ it makesme think we are not prepared to do athing,” she said.

The health region that includes Chilli-wack and Abbotsford was ranked nearthe bottom of a national study from the

University of Regina.Dr. Wallace Lockhart used statistics ranking

quality of care, access to services and patientsatisfaction to analyze 45 health regionsthroughout Canada.

He used health region report cards and,according to the university website, “rankingsare based on 19 comparable performanceindicators in the categories of quality, accessand patient satisfaction.”

In regions with more than 200,000 people,Fraser East, which includes Chilliwack and

Abbotsford, was ranked 28th out of 30. But thatwasn’t the worst in B.C. Fraser North, whichincludes Burnaby and New Westminster, wasranked 30th.Vancouver was ranked 27th.

Lockhart, a University of Regina accountingprofessor at the Paul J. Hill School of Business,used data from the 2010 Health IndicatorsReport (Canadian Institute for Health Informa-tion), the 2008 Canadian Community HealthSurvey (Statistics Canada), and Statistics Cana-da’s Hospital Standardized Mortality Ratio.

He said there are significant differences inhealth care across the country.

“No one region does terrible at everything oris the best at everything,” said Lockhart.

To analyze quality of care, Lockhart lookedat 10 measurements, including hysterectomyre-admission rates and in-hospital hip frac-tures.

He took six measurements to analyze accessto services, including waiting times for peoplewith broken hips or needing knee replace-ments.

And Lockhart looked at three measurementsof patient satisfaction, including physiciancare and hospital care.

Aman who held up the Cultus Lake PubFriday is still at large despite the effortsof police dog units and more than a

dozen officers.A man armed with a gun entered the pub

just before noon and demanded money,according to Mounties. The store owner ranout the back of the store and the suspectalso fled the scene, according to the RCMPpress release. Police did not say if anythingwas stolen.

Police dogs were called to the scene andfollowed a short track that ended at Karen

Drive. “It’s very possible that the suspectmay have then fled the area on a bike or in avehicle which is why the track came to suchan abrupt end,” said RCMP spokespersonConst. Tracy Wolbeck.

Roadblocks were created at the entranceof Columbia Valley Road but the suspectwas not found. The suspect is described asbetween five-foot-seven and five-foot-10,with a medium build. He wore a black T-shirtwith a white logo in the centre, along withwhite pants and a black baseball cap with adesert storm printed on it.

BY CORNELIA [email protected]

Tannis Anderson has beensetting two or three alarmsfor 3 a.m. every night forfour years, but she still

worries about not waking up intime to check her 13-year-old sonJamie’s blood sugar.

Jamie has a rare brain disease,and he developed diabetes at agethree because of medication hewas taking to treat it.

Along with the diabetes, whichis kept under control with sevenshots of insulin a day, swelling inJamie’s brain causes frequent sei-zures, short-term memory loss,autism-like behaviour and pain inhis shoulder andback that makeit hard for him tosleep.

“He has lots ofaches and painsthat bother him,”said Anderson,who is up moret h a n o n c e o nmost nights.

Fo r h e r, a n dfor most parentsof children withdevelopmental disabilities, takingcare of her son is a 24/7 job thatoften leaves her physically andemotionally exhausted.

“I don’t think about the futurevery much,” she said. “I just thinkabout getting through the day.”

Although Jamie’s disease is veryrare, Anderson’s challenges as acaregiver are not, and last year theChilliwack Society for CommunityLiving (CSCL) launched a programcalled Respitality to give parentslike her a break.

A partnership between CSCL andfour local hotels (Chilliwack Com-fort Inn, the Royal Hotel, Rowena’sInn on the River and Harrison HotSprings Resort and Spa), the pro-gram provides the families of chil-

dren and adults with disabilities afree night’s hotel getaway.

Like traditional respite care, itgives families a break from thedemands of care but with the add-ed bonus of an often much-neededchange of scenery.

“I don’t do holidays,” said Ander-son. “It’s very difficult to go anywhere because Jamie has seizuresall the time. We sometimes travelto visit a relative, but that’s usuallyexhausting.”

Andersen took her first Respital-ity stay at the Harrison Hot SpringsResort with her 15-year-old daugh-ter Sydney in April.

As a single mom whose full-timecaregiving duties prevent her fromworking outside the home, it’s not

something shecould have afford-ed on her own,especially sincet h e h o t e l a l s othrew in a freedinner and buffetbreakfast.

“ Y o u c o m eh o m e a n d yo ufeel like you’vehad a holiday,”said Anderson ofher Respital i ty

stay. “It gives you more energy toface whatever’s coming.”

For Harrison Hot Springs Resortdirector of marketing Ian Maw, get-ting involved just seemed right.

“As soon as I heard about it, Ithought this was something thatwe could do easily,” he said. “I havethe product that can help some ofthese folks out who just don’t getthe opportunity to get away andhave a moment for themselves.”

Hotels involved in the programprovide rooms during off-peakdays and seasons.

While they still incur someexpense even when they are notturning away other business, Mawsaid it’s well worth it.

“It’s about the contribution to the

community,” he said, “especiallywhen you think about some of thechallenges these families have interms of needing a break.”

Those challenges aren’t limited toparents.

Because caring for a child or adultwith developmental disabilities isoften all consuming, parents strug-gle to find extra energy and time toinvest in their other children.

“It’s taken its toll on them,” saidmother of three Donna Turenne ofher 16-year-old daughter Caslyn and13-year-old son Landon.

Turenne’soldestdaughter,Camille,18, has a severe type of epilepsyaccompanied by developmental dis-abilities.

When she was younger, frequentdaily seizures threatened her life andcreated a lot of stress in the family.

Caslyn still remembers the feel-ing of separation at age three whenher mom had to stay in the hospi-tal with Camille for a month and ahalf.

Like a lot of kids, she wentthrough a resentful stage in her ear-ly teens, but over time she and herbrother have developed a maturityand empathy beyond their years.

“They have a different outlook onlife,” said Turenne.

Last week, thanks to Respitality,Turenne got to lavish some undi-vided attention on her daughter forher 16th birthday by taking her anda friend for a night at the HarrisonHot Springs Resort.

“It’s a treat getting out and beingable to spend this time,” saidTurenne.

Marriage is another relationshipthat tends to take a backseat infamilies of children and adults withdevelopmental disabilities.

Add in the stress and anxiety overhealth complications that oftenaccompany developmental disabil-ities, and it’s a strain many relation-ships don’t survive.

“They say it either makes orbreaks a marriage having a childwith a disability, and unfortunatelyit was the breaker,” said ChristineCookson of her own experienceafter her youngest daughter Miawas born with Jacobson’s Syn-drome, a genetic disorder a littlelike Down Syndrome.

A single mother of four whoworks full time, Cookson has had tolearn—with some help from coun-sellors—how important it is to takecare of herself as well as her chil-dren.

“If you don’t, you’re no good toanybody,” she said.

For her, Respitality was an oppor-tunity to put that wisdom in to prac-tice, and in February, she booked anight off with her significant other atRowena’s Inn on the River.

“It was quiet and peaceful,” shesaid. “It was wonderful.”

Police are investigatingat least a dozen shotsfired at a Chilliwack

apartment early Mondaymorning.

RCMP shut down EdwardsStreet between Kipp andSpadina avenues for severalhours Monday as they inves-tigated the shooting, whichleft at least a dozen bulletholes in the balcony windowof a third-floor apartment inthe 9300 block of EdwardsStreet.

Police received a 911 call

of shots fired about 4:30 a.m.,according to RCMP spokes-person Const. Tracy Wolbeck.No one was injured, she said.

While police are releasinglittle information and won’tsay exactly how many shotswere fired or with what typeof gun, Wolbeck did say thatthe residents of the unit tar-geted were known to police.

“We don’t believe this to bea random act, we believe thatit was targeted,” she said.

No arrests have yet beenmade.

Real estate sales are down andhousing starts are up, puttingChilliwack squarely in a buyer’s

market.There were 151 single family homes

sold in June with an average sale priceof $362,000, down from 171 in Mayand 165 in June 2009.

Total residential sales for Junedropped to 224 from May’s 248 homesales. Total sale are down from a yearago, when 250 were sold in June 2009,the first month of recovery after theeconomic downturn.

While the implementation of theHarmonized Sales Tax (HST) has little

effect in Chilliwack, the Chilliwackand Distr ict Real Estate Board(CADREB) has blamed lower sales onHST uncertainty.

“The truth is, as the majority ofhomes for sale in Chilliwack and areaare under the HST threshold, it onlyminimally affects the price, if at all,”said CADREB president Kyle Hislop.

HST is only applied to new homesover $525,000. The average price ofa home in Chilliwack dropped from$352,000 to $344,000, according toHislop.

Sales typically slow down in summerand despite new lending rules thatmay keep some first-time homebuyersout of the market, CADREB says themarket is good for buying.

“Combined with continued lowinterest rates, it is an excellent time toshop for a first home, a move-up or aninvestment property,” Hislop said in apress release.

The B.C. Real Estate Association’s(BCREA) second quarter housingforecast suggests an improvingeconomy may counter-balance someof the erosion in affordability causedby higher mortgage interest ratesand tighter lending rules. The BCREAalso suggests stronger economicand employment growth in 2011 willbolster housing demand and pushhome sales higher.

BCREA predicts a 2.9-per-centincrease in sales for 2010 to 2,340 totalsales up from 2,274 in 2009.

Being a stay-at-home momof young children is a low-ego job.

It’s not something a lot ofmoms talk about—they’re usual-ly drowned out by the oohs andaahs of people telling them whata great thing motherhood is, howspecial, how wonderful.

It’s hard to get a word in edge-wise about what it feels like to besuddenly thrust into a role wheresomeone else’s needs comebefore your own 24/7.

It would be one thing if infantsand toddlers expressed theirgratitude, but mothers have toteach them that too.

If they want something—“Useyour words, sweetie.”

When they get something—“What do you say, honey?”

Day in and day out, stay-at-home mothers and young chil-dren grind away at one another.

In a few years, if the momis still standing, the child willlaunch into the world a decenthuman being who knows how tosay “please” and “thank you.”

The mom, for her part, emergesfrom the experience foreverchanged, knowing what it meansto love another human being andfully expecting nothing in return.

It’s ennobling, it’s cosmic, butit’s not easy.

For mothers of kids with devel-opmental disabilities, this allseems doubly true.

They, however, are caughtbetween a rock and a hard placewhen it comes to making the restof us understand.

On the one hand, if they arecompletely honest about howdifficult it is to care for a child (oradult) with developmental dis-abilities—how disruptive to “nor-mal” family life, how exhausting,how isolating, how taxing to theself esteem—the rest of us mightonly be able to see how hard andburdensome their lives are andnot the deeper rewards.

On the other hand, if theydon’t talk about the challenges ofcaring for a child with develop-mental disabilities, they becomemore and more isolated.

Talking to some of these moms

about the Chilliwack Society forCommunity Living’s Respitalityprogram, it seems to me most ofthem opt for isolation becauseit’s just too hard to explain theircomplicated lives to the uniniti-ated. (See story pg. 6.)

Without a bit of probing, theyare reluctant to talk about beingsleep-deprived, about the tolltheir caregiving duties take ontheir relationships with their otherchildren or about how they rarelyentertain at home or go out.

One mom told me she didn’twant to give the impression herdaughter with developmentaldisabilities was a burden to her,that her daughter often remindsher about what life is really allabout.

I think most mothers canrelate to that—all kids remind usof what life is really all about.

But, frankly, I also think it’sOK for moms, whether theirkids have disabilities or not, toacknowledge the load they carryand be allowed to put it downonce in a while.

So I say kudos to the hotels thathave stepped forward throughthe Respitality program to pro-vide a free night’s getaway forfamilies of kids with disabilities.

Should beraising ourown MDsW

hile the high number of newdoctors in the province isrefreshing news, there’s stillmore that needs to be done to

address the critical shortage of physicians.The B.C. Medical Association states

there are 250,000 British Columbians thatdo not have a family doctor. That’s fright-ening.

And to make matters worse, many doc-tors are within five years of retiring, so thedemand will increase unless we do some-thing fast.

The association says that to maintainthe status quo we need 400 new doctorseach year, yet we only graduate 256 newmedical students annually.

Meanwhile, hundreds of foreign-traineddoctors are not being used because theyhave to redo their residencies since theircredentials aren’t recognized here. Thenumber of residency positions for them atSt. Paul’s Hospital is a meagre 18.

In 2009, B.C. had 488 new doctors—great news—and the jump was largelybecause the provincial government hadenough foresight to increase the numberof medical seats over the past few years.More seats means more doctors graduat-ing.

But adding more seats is a costly endea-vour, and it takes several years beforethose students are ready to practise. B.C.has actively recruited doctors from othercountries, the U.S and the U.K. for exam-ple, because it’s cheaper than paying formore medical seats.

Ideally, we should be raising our owndoctors in B.C. and doing more to get theforeign-trained doctors who are alreadyhere into our system.

And while expanding the number ofmedical seats further may be costly now,the long-term benefits include betterhealth care for British Columbians, a cropof physicians more likely to stay here andless reliance on recruiting from abroadwhen many countries are struggling withtheir own doctor shortages.

Editor:Regarding the remarks of

Mayor Sharon Gaetz andCoun. Diane Janzen andthose of previous mayorsand councils about transit:

They are very parochialand short-sighted. They donot see the big valley picture(which includes Abbotsford,Langley and a large portionof Surrey) that has a needof a future light rail servicefor the south side our FraserValley.

Mayor and council couldand should show more posi-tives than negatives to thelight rail concept for Chilli-wack plus the other areas tobe involved.

Yes, it’s not part of the cityof Chilliwack’s mandate.Yes, Chilliwack doesn’t havemoney for light transit. Yes,the provincial and federalgovernments are broke. Yes,demographics indicate thatthere aren’t the numbers tosupport a transit system to-day. So what?

All that does not meanthat planning for for alight rail system should beignored or delayed.

Cooperation with all par-ties involved should agreeon the need and the basicsystem but not get bogged-down with the details fornow. It’s too early for that.

Promote the need of alight rail system for the Fra-ser Valley. Get with it.

Advise the approximatelytwo million souls west of uswho and where we are andthe need for valley publictransportation that doesn’texist today. Apply pressureon the public and officialsto gain their approval to theneed and to the system pro-posed.

On Oct. 3, 1910 theVancouver to ChilliwackInterurban arrived—onehundred years ago thisOctober. Who is doing any-thing about that? Do notwait until Oct.1 to wake up.

Fred LawrenceChilliwack

Olsen trying tobuild red credEditor:

Wow, that was an amazingcolumn promoting the ideathat we should have to begthe government for every-thing. A week ago the Timespromoted gun prohibition-ism too.

It sounds like Mr. Olsen istrying to build his red credwith something straight outof poli sci and criminologyfrom Ryerson and SFU. Isuggest that the Times doan experiment and operatefor a month under the samekind of rules as the gun laws.I think a better crime fightingidea would be to round up allthose 850 known gang mem-bers in the valley mentionedin the news recently.

I just spoke with a manwhose adult sister recentlylearned a hard lesson aboutbeing the unarmed andunarmoured victim of acriminal attack and he saidhe was surprised that she hastaken steps to be prepared.He shouldn’t be if he thinksshe can learn from her mis-takes. She is just lucky to livewhere she can do so, even ifothers disapprove.

There are those who saythat Canadians shouldn’thave freedoms not given inother countries, but we haveto remember that most ofthe world lives under dicta-torships, theocracies, obses-sive regulation, communismand rulers-for-life.

Recently, I read a commen-tary about the debate overfreedom here and I have toagree with the writer sayingthat it is better to have highstandards of desire for free-dom. It’s really sad to see thedestruction in this countrysince the revolution hit.

Mr. O. FrostChilliwack

Best view oftenfrom high horseEditor:

In response to Sylvia Com-merford’s comments (Times,July 9)on the language issue.

The neat thing about beingon a high horse Sylvia is thatyou tend to get a broaderview of the world or, in thiscase, of the country.

Sylvia maintains that if thecourts in Quebec aren’t bilin-gual why should Canadiancourts be? A simple answermight be because we are abilingual nation. What Syl-via has forgotten is that thecourt system she is referringto is provincial and the Surê-té de Quebec is a provincialpolice force.

Quebec is a French prov-ince, not a bilingual one. Iwould not expect the pro-vincial courthouse in Chilli-wack to provide services inFrench as B.C. is an Englishprovince, nor would I expectBarry Penner or John Les tobe fluent in French.

The original premise of myargument (Times, July 6) wasthat it was a federal mem-ber of Parliament’s officewhich had sent out a ques-tion regarding the validity of

requiring Canada’s (federal)Supreme Court justices to bebilingual. In this case, whena federal office queries thenecessity of conforming tothe country’s bilingual status,it is not a question of tit fortat between two disparateprovincial institutions.

Sylvia, get a wider scopeon the world and join me fora ride.

Kirsten HaugeChilliwack

A reluctantmulticulturalistEditor:

Never realized that Van-couver had a large Frenchspeaking population. Chi-nese, German, English . . .but French? Perhaps it’sthe Vancouver south of theborder.

Really unfortunate we can’troll back the time to the daysof Wilfred Laurier, who said,“we have room for but oneflag, the Canadian flag. Wehave room for but one lan-guage, the English languageand one loyalty, loyalty to theCanadian people.”

I realize, of course, we havematured since then in com-passion, intelligence, etc. allrolled into the all-encom-passing multiculturalism.How fortunate indeed. Whatmore can be said?

Solms CoutinhoChilliwack

Opening Partywas fantasticEditor:

What a time was had byall. Downtown Chilliwack’sParty in the Park on Fridayevenings is truly a familyaffair—little ones dancingand everyone smiling, yousee people you haven’t seenin years.

There’s something for all.Activities for the kids, lots ofgiveaways (hint: brush upon your Bruins trivia) anda proper night market witha great selection of yummyfood and cool stuff.

Seasoned professionalmusician and my long-timefriend Trevor McDonald issorting the entertainmentand keeping the evenings onschedule. I only caught the

last three bands and every-one raved about the ones Imissed. I won’t be late nextweek.

I’m so glad I finally gotthe opportunity to hearPardon My Striptease. Theywere fantastic. Loved seeingformer mayor Clint Hamesplaying roadie.

The closing act was localparty band Full Tilt who hadthe crowd up and rockin’right to the end at 10 p.m.The fun didn’t end withgreat restaurants just stepsaway (T.G.I.F. – Thank Grin-gos It’s Friday).

I hope the Rotarians arepleased. This wonderfulevent couldn’t be happen-ing without their invaluablecontribution of the parkitself.

See y’all downtown.Wendy Power

Chilliwack

Don’t poisonMother EarthEditor:

The possibility of a waste-to-energy (WTE) plantbeing built in Gold River forMetro Vancouver to ship itsgarbage to is being consid-ered, providing jobs and taxrevenue locally as an incen-tive. I read that Covanta hasoffered to build a WTE plantfree which should be a cluethat there is more to WTEthan meets the eye.

While the air pollutants area major concern there is stillnot much said about the ashresidue which is said to bebetween 10 and 30 per cent.To give you an idea of whatthat would look like: If Cov-anta should choose to builda plant capable of processing40,000 tons per year the ashresidue would be enough tocover over 1,000 acres a footdeep over a 25-year contractat 30 per cent residue. Insome European countriesthat ash is considered haz-ardous waste and has to belandfilled accordingly. If wedivert 70 per cent throughreduce re use and recycle the30 per cent residue wouldnot be hazardous waste.

Should a WTE plant quali-fy as an Independent PowerProducer (IPP) under theLiberals green power plan Iwould assume that if (dueto environmental concerns)the plant was ordered closedsome authority would beexpected to compensateCovanta for the cost of theirplant and the loss of incomefrom the power it wouldhave produced by the end ofits contract.

While humans may thinkthat they come from theirmother’s womb we are allproducts of Mother Earth.How long do you think wecan get away with poisoningour mother?

Chilliwack’s Sardis Slammers Squirt Cfastpitch team claimed second placein the province Sunday at the Provin-

cial Championships in Vernon.The Slammers fell 18-3 in the final to the

Cloverdale Tsunami after a scorching hotweekend in the Okanagan.

The Slammers rolled through the roundrobin, winning all four games, and also tri-umphed in their first two playoff games. Aloss forced the Slammers to play—and win—a semifinal to earn a berth in the final.

There, the Slammers ran into a red-hotCloverdale pitcher.

“We probably had the best team there,”said Slammers coach Mo Fournier on Mon-day.

“We just ran out of gas.”Playing in a stifling heat that reached

towards the 40C mark, the Slammers repre-sented Chilliwack well, said Fournier.

“They all played really, really well.”The provincials consisted of 16 teams of

girls aged 10, 11 and 12 from across B.C.

BY TYLER [email protected]

Reversing a legacy of losing won’t beeasy, but new Chilliwack Huskers coachLuke Acheson is confident that a focus

on players will help turn around a programthat has made the B.C. Football Conferenceplayoffs just once in the last seven years.

The Huskers wrapped up training campSunday and will spend this week gearing upfor an exhibition game on Saturday againstthe Surrey Rams (7 p.m., Exhibition Field).

This will be Acheson’s first game at thehelm of the Huskers; he served as offensiveline co-ordinator last year before taking overco-coaching duties when then-head coachHowie Zaron resigned with three games left inthe year.

“I’m trying to do just about everythingdifferent,” Acheson told the Times. “I thinkfrom last year you have to do a lot of thingsdifferently.”

On the field and off, Acheson said the goalis to key on players and make them feel athome.

“It’s all about caring for the athletes andputting the athletes first,” he said.

That means providing top-notch coaching,personal support and, crucially, by beingcomfortable with having players move on tothe college ranks.

Acheson said it’s important that recruitssee the Huskers as a stepping stone towardscollege, even if that means having playersleave before their BCFC eligibility ends.

“It’s a bit of a two-sided coin,” he said. “Bytrying to push guys onto university you reallycan only have an athlete playing for two years. . . so he can’t play for you until he’s 22. Usuallyyou only get that athlete until he’s 20. Butgetting the message out there that we reallycare for our kids and that we’re doing what’sbest for athletes, that’s going to bring some ofthe better athletes here.

“We’re going to have a higher turnover but Ithink we’ll have more of the better athletes orhighly-touted prospects come here.”

On the field, the club is using a new offensivescheme aimed at simplifying playcalling.Off the field, the non-profit organization hasrecruited a new squad of volunteers whohope to make the players feel comfortable inChilliwack and find them part-time jobs.

The aim is to run the program partly like abusiness, and partly like a good universityprogram. Already, Acheson is happy with thisyear’s class of recruits and he says the teamhas been building chemistry ever since theclub’s spring camp.

“They’re competing hard,” he said. “We’restarting to come together as a team.”

He said he is confident that his squad cansurprise some teams that have taken winsagainst the Huskers for granted in the past.

“Our goal is to surprise people. Nobody

is counting on the Chilliwack Huskers ondoing anything,” he said. “Our goal is towork hard everyday, get better everyday and,by the end of the season, we’ll be where weneed to be.”
