Jorin Clay Dann-Mills life was cut tragically short

A woman offers prayers and gifts as she visits the memorial site of local boy Jorin Clay Dann-Mills, who died tragically, after being struck by a commercial vehicle last Wednesday. An outpouring of support from the community has been staggering since the tragedy, as visitors placed toys, flowers and a sign that reads “all children go to heaven”at the 6th Avenue location.

A memorial has been erected in honour of the tragic passing of Jorin Clay Dann-Mills last week. Toys, gifts, flowers and prayers have been ongoing, since the tragedy occurred and as the mourning community of Hope, offers their respects to the boy and his family.

The community was shocked when Mills, aged 8, was hit by a commer-cial truck on 6th Avenue early last Wednesday afternoon.

BC ambulance promptly arrived on scene accompanied by General Duty officers, where Mills was found to be suffering from a series of life threatening injuries.

Mills was expediently transported to Fraser Canyon Hospital where he succumbed to trauma.

“No family should have to deal with something like this — I can only imagine the type of hell they are going through right now,” Staff Sergeant Karol Rehdner told The Hope Standard on scene. “We are still investigat-ing and have no further information at this time.”

According to police reports the driver is working with authorities dur-ing the ongoing investigation.

A candlelight vigil late Wednesday evening was the result of an out-pouring of community support to honour Mills and his parents Sharon Dann and Dan Mills — over one hundred people attended the rally, dem-onstrating the spirit of Hope in a crisis such as this one.

Shasta Beeckman a family member, who arranged the rally outside of Mills’ home, started a GoFundMe page, where people are currently being directed to raise funds for Mills’ parents.

“It’s devastating for the family and the community — no one should have to lose a child,” said Mayor Wilfried Vicktor. “Our thoughts and prayers are with them at this time.”

Mills will be missed by all who knew him and is survived by three sib-lings who include older sister Kayla, brother Brayden and his little sister Rosie. The family has requested that instead of flowers, a donation be made to Vancouver Children’s Hospital on behalf of Mills.

A celebration of life is scheduled to take place for Mills at 11 a.m. on Saturday, October 17 at the Hope Golf Club.

The Hemlock Resort Master Plan has been approved by the provincial govern-ment. This is one of the final hurdles the mountain’s management company, Berezan

Management, will have to climb in an attempt to revitalize the mountain. They started creating the massive plan seven years ago, after purchasing the assets out of foreclosure. The plan includes a sizeable expansion in both size and in operational seasons, with the hopes of making Hemlock

a viable, year round resort.While the average number of skiers in

2010 was about 1,150 a day, the hill hopes to one day see 13,440 skiers on the hill each day. Hemlock Resort announced the news on Facebook on Friday morning, posting a letter sent to owner Ralph Berezan from

the Ministry of Forest Lands and Natural Resource Operations.

“Hemlock Resort has addressed the con-cerns raised through the course of the review to FLNR’s satisfaction with amend-ments to the Master Plan and commit-ments that will be incorporated into the

Master Development Agreement,” the letter states. “In the coming months, our office will be working with you to finalize the new MDA which will replace your existing agreement for the resort.” The finaliza-tions will include work-ing with Sts’ailes on the establishment of a First Nation Woodland Licence over the Controlled Recreation Area, as well as support from the government in working with the Fraser Valley Regional District.

The letter, attrib-uted to Terry Pratt of the Mountain Resorts Branch, said the plan will bring “much-need-ed capital investment in recreational infrastruc-ture and all season tour-ism opportunities.”

Hemlock Resort con-gratulated management on securing the support of the government.

“After seven years of focused effort, working closely together with Sts’ailes and the BC Provincial Government in the development of a new Master Plan for Hemlock Resort, we are pleased to announce that we have cleared one of the final hurdles by secur-ing approval for the development plan,” the resort’s Facebook page reads. “This announce-ment brings Hemlock resort one step closer to becoming a year round playground in the Fraser Valley.”

Over those seven years, Berezan has reached out to residents in the small communi-ties that surround the mountain. They official-ly unveiled the master plan in 2010, when the review process began. In September 2013, they set up an open house in nearby Sts’ailes to meet with the public.The grand plan is that Hemlock Resort will one day stretch from the mountaintop, down to the shores of Harrison Lake. While the resort is small now, the surrounding area gives it great poten-tial, the master plan says. “At first glance, Hemlock’s physical attributes might be dis-missed as insubstantial when compared to the world’s great moun-tain resorts,” it reads. “As illustrated in this Master Plan, the oppor-tunities at Hemlock are very significant.”

Hemlock Resort plan gets a solid green light

Designing the u shot each year

can be quite dif cult and sometimes

the result is less than perfect. Last

year’s u shot was one of those.

This year the vaccine will be a

better match for the circulating

viruses. These vaccines are

never 100% effective but even at

50-60%, they give pretty good odds

for not getting the u.

As pharmacists, we are often

asked if it’s OK to get the u shot

when one has a cold. Colds and

other minor illnesses do not affect

the vaccine’s effectiveness. Just

a reminder: it does take about two

weeks for our bodies to develop

antibodies against the u.

Advances in healthcare are slow

and steady and we often forget what

our ancestors had to deal with. For

example, in the early 20th century,

one in seven children died before

the age of 2 and deaths during

childbirth were quite common.

Polio, smallpox and measles were

the case of many child deaths.

Today, these diseases has virtually

disappeared.

Ibuprofen is a pain-reliever and

anti-in ammatory drug that is

available without prescription.

Health Canada has issued a

warning of the increased risk of

heart attack and stroke with high

doses of ibuprofen. High doses

means amounts over 1200 mg per

day.

Don’t hesitate to ask questions

that will help you get the most out

of your medications. Use the

ElectionMission-Matsqui candidates speak

Kevin MillsBlack Press

Topics ranged from missing aboriginal women to help for veter-ans, and disabled programs to infrastructure. A question from the audience regarding road repair for Lillooet, led to a brief debate on infrastructure: Liberal candidate Jati Sidhu said his party will spend $125 billion on infrastructure, and the party is “committed to build new roads, build new bridges and build new schools.”

Conservative candidate Brad Vis said the Conservatives have invested $3.5 billion in infrastructure funding in B.C.

“We’ve made record investments in this program and all of you see that day to day.”

He cited the Port Mann Bridge, Alex Fraser Bridge and improvements to the Sea to Sky Highway and the Mission Bridge as examples.

When asked about his stance on holding an inquiry to investi-gate missing aboriginal women, NDP candidate Dennis Adamson told the crowd his party was in support of the process.

“We said that within 100 days of being elected, we would start that inquiry. It’s about time.”

Arthur Green, of the Green Party, said his party fully supports the findings of the truth and reconciliation commission.

“The Green Party will implement those findings and will stand with First Nations governments,” he said, adding the Greens will call for an immediate national inquiry for murdered and missing indigenous women. Sidhu said domestic violence is five times higher among aboriginal women, and over the past decade, thou-sands have gone missing. He said the Harper government has been “putting a blind eye on it.”

“We, the Liberal Party, within the first 90 days of government, we will call for a national inquiry.”

When asked what his party would do to help programs for the disabled, Vis said working with those with disabilities was one of his passions.

“The biggest thing that people with disabilities in the community are saying is we want a place to work, we want to feel dignified.”

He wants to work with local businesses to make sure more peo-ple are employed. Vis also said his party promotes trade and educa-tion, and noted the government has made new programs for loan forgiveness for people in trades and announced it will provide loan forgiveness for all First Nations looking to enter the medical field.

Wyatt Scott, an independent candidate, remarked that he likes to listen to election promises, adding parties tend to throw money at special interest groups.

He said voters have to look at the entire four-year term, add-ing the current government hasn’t diversified. He said the Fraser Canyon has so many resources, it’s perfect for diversification.

“We have an opportunity to start building the green sector. B.C. is lacking right now in the green sector.”

He believes the technology and trades sector will flourish if that course is taken. Green agreed.

“We in the Green Party believe that the greatest economic cata-lyst that the world will ever see will be the transfer from fossil fuels to clean renewable energy,” said Green.

Adamson said the NDP would immediately raise the minimum wage to $15 an hour. “That will get some money moving around the economy.” But Vis said that move will only apply to one per cent of the population – federally regulated telecommunication workers.

“There will be no new minimum wage because that is a pro-vincial responsibility. The federal government has no constitu-tional authority to say there will be a new minimum wage,” said Vis. When asked about the legalization of marijuana, Scott said he felt pot is more accessible to children than alcohol.

“You can go to any playground and you can get marijuana. There’s a reason for that – it’s a black market item.”

He said criminals are profiting from marijuana, and it’s a “no-brainer” to take the drug off the streets, regulate it and put the money in government coffers.

“We can enhance education, health care and whatever else we want.” Vis said under the Conservatives, funding for health care has increased every year. “We have promised the Canadian public that by the end of the decade there will be $40 billion in transfers to provinces.”

Green said a mental health and homeless strategy is one of the main platforms for his party, noting that homelessness and mental health often go hand in hand.

“We found it’s more economical to deal with homelessness than it is to ignore it.”

He is promoting a housing-first strategy, which focuses on first getting the homeless into shelter and then dealing with the issues that put them on the streets. Sidhu, when asked about supporting veterans, said the current government has failed Canada’s military personnel, and the Liberals will “ensure that our veterans and their families have nothing less than the best of care and support from a grateful nation.” He said a quarter of the veteran affairs staff were cut since 2008. Vis said his party has made some mistakes, but believes the new veterans affairs minister has made “some excel-lent changes to address some of the misgivings.” While debate was civil for most of the night, some of the candidates became heated as the night went on. Scott continued to promote the benefit of voting independent, saying party politicians are told how to vote by their leaders. “There’s nothing democratic about that.”

He said he would represent the community, rather than a party. Scott also took an apparent shot at NDP candidate Adamson,who struggled to answer some questions.

“Some of us up here don’t even know our own party policy,” said Scott. Adamson, who is a Fraser Valley Regional District director, admitted to not knowing all the NDP policies, but said, “I’ve been spending the last seven years actually governing. I’m not sitting around in a rock shop watching politics, talking to people about it. I’m actually doing it.” Scott owns a rock shop in downtown Mission. Vis joined in the debate, saying Scott, as an independent, wouldn’t sit on any committees, and would be in the back of the room, speak-ing less and having less opportunity to do things.

He then turned his attention to the NDP candidate, noting he was audited in 2012-13 for $28,000 in expenditures related to travel.

“That was like going across Canada back and forth six times, and that was for representing 720 people in the community of Yale and surrounding areas,” said Vis.

Adamson defended himself saying, “We were all audited and it was found that there was no wrongdoing whatsoever.”

Elaine Wismer of the Marxist-Leninist Party was invited, but did not attend the all-candidates meting.

Several yes or no questions were asked of all candidates includ-ing: If elected would you support continued funding of the CBC?

All said yes.

Young girl addresses homeless issue at debate Election

Jessica PetersThe Progress

A young girl named Cadence stepped up to the microphone last Wednesday, facing the full panel of six federal election candidates.

She had waited a half hour to reach the microphone, and it will be years before she will be old enough to mark a ballot. Neither of these things stopped her from addressing what she sees as the biggest problem in Chilliwack — homelessness.

As was the rule with everyone stepping up to the microphone at the All Candidates Debate at the Chilliwack Cultural Centre, she had to address just one candidate. She chose the NDP's Seonaigh MacPherson, and asked what could be done better at the Yale Road overpass near McDonald's.

MacPherson then asked the child what she would want to do about the problem.

"I have to walk by them on my way to the Leisure Centre," she said. "The fence doesn't help. They're still there, you know. They're still there."

While someone on the panel noted that it's more of a city problem, federal funding was given to 15 communities to deal with homeless-ness — but not Chilliwack.

After asking the young girl what she would do about the problem, MacPherson then explained the NDP's housing strategy.

Green Party candidate Thomas Cheney took the question on as well, saying that it would cost less to house the homeless than to allow them to live on the streets.

"The City of Chilliwack's approach is heartless," he said. "It's an embarrassment to the community."

But that was about as hyperlocal as the questions got in the two and half hour debate.

Most of the questioning — from the microphone but also taken via Twitter and delivered by moderator Paul Henderson — focused on national issues such as the economy, terrorism, daycare policies, Canada Post, and the Trans-Pacific Partnership deal.

Liberal candidate Louie DeJaeger pointed out that "nobody is going to know what's in that deal (TPP) until after the election."

Cheney, who has a minor in economics, said that free trade has not proven itself in the past and that jobs will be lost if the 12-country trade deal goes through.

Dorothy-Jean O'Donnell, the perennial Marxist Leninist candidate, spoke up about the trade deal, too. Trade deals only benefit investors, not middle class families and farmers, she said. Canada is already run-ning an "extreme trade deficit," she added.

"Our imports are outpacing our exports. We're allowing imports to flood our marketplace."

Several people asked about international arms deals, and ques-tioned Conservative candidate Mark Strahl on his government's role

in Syria. "There's a reason we're participating in bombing," Strahl said, and

that reason is ISIL. "They torture and behead children. They rape and kill women," he

said, and then record it and "brag about it" by sending those images around the world, encouraging more hate.

"We have a responsibility to protect the innocent," he said. "That is what we are doing here."

But that explanation didn't fly with all the candidates, least of all Libertarian Alexander Johnson.

"Don't believe the fear mongering," he told the audience. "Bring our troops back here we are not creating enemies around the world."

MacPherson said Canada has no place fighting in areas like Syria. "We have interfered in areas we don't really understand," she said,

and DeJaeger noted that what Canada needs is "more peacekeepers." Strahl also heard several complaints that he's not been accessible

as the elected MP over the past term, both from people at the micro-phone and from fellow candidates.

He was absent at recent all candidates debate held by the Sto:lo Nation, and won't be attending the UFV student-led debate.

"You are the aboriginal parliamentary secretary, and you didn't even have the guts to show up!" DeJaeger said, loudly and over applause from the audience.

Lisa Morry asked what he could bring to the community if he were elected but Conservatives failed to form a majority.

He noted that he helped fight for supply management during the TPP negotiations, has worked with local farmers "with onerous red tape," and helped secure funding for infrastructure on major projects in the riding.

Later in the evening, he noted to another person at the microphone that the job of MP means spending about 22 or 23 weeks at work in Ottawa, which pulls them away from their communities.

"No matter who gets elected, that's the reality," he said. The Chilliwack-Hope riding is becoming smaller with this election,

and he hopes that his presence will be felt more in those communities if re-elected, he said.

The provincial government has provided $29,560 to local Parent Advisory Councils (PACs) and the District Parent Advisory Committee (DPAC) in the Fraser-Cascades School District to help support student activi-ties outside of the classroom.

The funds will be used to enhance the student experience through extracurricular activities. These grants cover various costs, including sporting equipment, musical instru-ments, playground equipment and field trips. “Parent Advisory Councils are made up of

dedicated individuals that contribute to the education experience,” Chilliwack-Hope MLA Laurie Throness said. “The gaming grant funds supports students and ensures they have access to extra-curricular activities.” The parent-run councils help ensure B.C.’s children have access to activities that ensure the development of a well-rounded educational background.

Overall, nearly $11.1 million has been deliv-ered to over 1,400 PACs and DPACs through-out British Columbia for the 2015-16 school year. The funding is through the provincial

government’s community gaming grant pro-grams. Local PACs receive $20 per student, while DPACs receive a flat rate of $2,500. The grant funds must remain under the manage-ment and control of those that receive them.

Funds cannot be used for, or transferred to, curricular purposes or to schools or school districts or their activities or programs. The provincial government distributes $135 million annually in community gaming grants to ben-efit over 5,000 local organizations representing virtually every community in the province.

The luscious green grass, raging rivers, the calm gentle breeze, spar-kling oceans, mighty mountains and tall trees. Canada is more than a country, it’s a home. It’s a home to you and me and all the animals that roam. It’s the place I’ve grown up in, and the place I’ll stay till I’m old and gone.

I’ve met my best friend here, celebrated 12 birthdays here, and took my first steps. Here in Canada, you can have the opportunity to do anything! Swim, run, dance, learn, laugh and just be you.

Canada has a lot to be proud of – like the Canadian Flag, Flanders Fields, Terry Fox, eagles, beavers, hockey, the landscape, cultures, National Anthem, freedom and all Canadians.

More than ten million square miles of land surrounded by three oceans, Canada has a population of a mere thirty-two million people. It is a safe place, where laughter and excitement fill the air. Who would want to live anywhere else?

When I think about Canada, I think about today, the past and my future. My past has been an amazing 12 years with making new friends, trying new things and discovering the world around me.

Today I am having an awesome time expressing my feelings about Canada and how it makes me – me! It makes me feel confident and safe and that builds personality and dreams.

For the future, I am preparing for the twists and turns, good times and bad, and anything that comes my way. I am planning on doing something to give back to Canada.

The more I think about it the more I come to have great respect for my country. Canada is fair, kind and offers support to every person. It is affordable and has great education programs. I mean in some countries girls are not even allowed to go to school or show any of their face except for their eyes. I think I have an amazing life with funny good-hearted friends, loving family and safe environment.

I know I still have a long time to decide what I want to be but I know it must be something that will contribute.

There are many people that make Canada a proud country and I would like to be one of them. A doctor, nurse, firefighter, police officer, mother, Olympian, teacher, farmer, Military and so much more. They are who Canada is.

All I know is Canada is my heart and home and always will be.I am proud to be called Canadian.

Lauren Lowe, age 12Black Press

There was a flurry of excitement in the B.C. legislature last week, as Delta South independent MLA Vicki Huntington released documents sug-gesting that a multina-tional manufacturing company continued to buy up B.C. farms for carbon offsets after they said last June they would stop. False alarm, as it

turns out. Agriculture Minister Norm Letnick clarified that three more farms in the Peace and Cariboo region had indeed been bought, but the company was merely following legal advice to close deals on farms that it had already agreed to purchase.

The company, British-based cleaning product and pharmaceutical maker Reckitt Benckiser (RB) confirmed this. A company official reiterated that its program to buy farms and replant them with trees is suspended.

By the time the B.C. government became

aware of this global public relations scheme, thanks to the work of NDP MLA Lana Popham and others, about 10,000 hectares of farm-land was already planted with seedlings. RB initially said they were buying up abandoned and unproductive farms, but local government officials disputed that.

RB soon realized that undermining already precarious farming communities was going to provide the opposite of the green publicity they sought, at least in B.C. The company told me it is now looking to switch its carbon offset program to replanting forest areas depleted by pine beetle and fire.

I’ll believe that when I see it, but on the face of it, this sounds almost as questionable as converting farmland back to forests. Pine forests need fire to regenerate, so fires have been part of the regeneration of the ecosys-tem since the retreat of the last Ice Age.

Beetle-kill areas are already coming back, and they were never completely denuded in any case, so the notion of manual plant-ing these areas seems impractical. Most are now criss-crossed with deadfall and all but

impassible.Another situation that received little public

attention was a report issued late this summer by the B.C. Forest Practices Board about forest stewardship plans.

The board reviewed 43 stewardship plans from all regions of B.C., prepared as required under provincial law by forest tenure holders on Crown land. They are ideally supposed to deal with things like where roads go and how streams are protected.

This is the management system put in place in 2003, when the B.C. Liberal government changed its approach to forest management. Gone was the NDP’s infamous seven-volume “Forest Practices Code,” which attempted to micromanage every detail of a timber licence, right down to inspecting for litter left at a log-ging site.

In came “results-based” forest management, where licence holders had to produce a plan showing stream protection and other values. The Forest Practices Board has found these plans often aren’t good for much, although results are generally good when they follow

up with on-the-ground audits of actual timber harvest areas.

The investigation found that many of the plans cover “vast and overlapping areas of the province, and were written using legal lan-guage that makes them very difficult for public understanding or review.” Little has changed since a similar finding in 2006.

During that time, the forests ministry was turned into Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations, with greatly increased responsibility over wildlife, mining, gas drill-ing and so on.

Columbia River-Revelstoke MLA Norm Macdonald, who traveled the province as NDP forests critic in recent years, says the problem now is there just aren’t enough people on the ground to assess what’s going on in our huge expanse of Crown land.

Meanwhile the city media covers profes-sional protesters issuing demands about the Walbran Valley.

“Let’s wait and see,” said townspeople in Ursula Hegi’s magnificent novel, Stones from the River, about a fictitious German town before and during World War II. Many townspeople saw some immediate benefits of the Nazi regime, and preferred not to look, as civil rights were gradually taken from them. “They didn’t know that they were giving their power away, and they didn’t know that by the time the Nazi regime would become bloated and mon-strous with that power, it would be too dangerous for the people to reclaim that power,” writes Hegi.

In Canada, we still live in a democracy; together we do have power in this election. So please consider this list of actions by our current Conservative government. They are not Nazis, but these Conservative actions are alarmingly against democracy, and against civil rights.

1. The Conservatives, supported by the Liberals, passed Bill C-51, the Anti-Terrorism Act. C-51 gives government power to call a very wide range of activities a security threat. A threat to physical safety is one thing, but C-51 says threats to economic and financial security can be terrorism! Even peaceful protests can be called a security threat. The gov-ernment can now easily find ways to charge people it doesn’t agree with.

C-51 seriously violates our privacy. All government offices can now share information with any other government offices. For example, Health Canada and Revenue Canada can share your information with the RCMP.

CSIS is Canada’s spy agency and not accountable to parliament. Before, CSIS could only collect information. C-51 lets CSIS arrest and question people, in secret.

They didn’t justify that C-51 is needed. Terrorism crimes are already included in the criminal code!

2. The Conservatives’ new voter ID rules make it more difficult to vote for tens of thou-sands of Canadians. Aboriginal people, students, seniors in care homes and homeless

people are especially unlikely to be able to vote when they get to the polls. We don’t need these rules — voter fraud is not a problem in Canada.

3. The Conservatives dismissed over 2000 government scientists in the last five years. Conservatives cut or eliminated hundreds of programs that monitored things like smoke-stack emissions, food inspections, oil spills, water quality, and climate change.

4. In 2012, this government began cutting $115 million from CBC, our precious public broadcasting station. Other stations’ first priority is to make money, but CBC by law must serve Canadians. With further cuts this year, there is risk we could lose CBC.

5. In 2012, the Conservative government used a 443 page budget bill to reduce the pub-lic’s ability to take part in environment decisions, weaken rules for projects like pipelines, eliminate protection of fish habitat, weaken the Canada Labour Code and change many other laws and policies.

6. Using the budget bill that way kept Parliament from asking questions and debating all those changes.

7. The Federal Conservatives passed Bill S-6, which gives the Minister of Aboriginal Affairs in Ottawa power to direct the Yukon’s environmental assessment process. Bill S-6 also means changes to existing projects won’t get assessed. But the rules for Yukon environ-mental assessment are part of the Umbrella Final Agreement signed by Yukon First Nations, Yukon and Canada.

8. Canada’s census information is now much less useful for making laws that are based on facts, because the Conservatives made the Census Long Form optional.

Let’s NOT wait and see where these Conservative actions might be headed. Laws can be repealed, cut funding can be restored. Let’s think and vote!

Moral crisis a real problemI submit that the real moral crisis in the world

today is the mental apathy (aka "indifference") and spinelessness of millions of citizens who wallow in it. Mentally lazy and spineless people get conned, used and exploited, all while supporting and even being so ill-advised as to thank those who con, use and exploit them.

On the other hand, who can harshly blame those of them who are pre-occupied with using all their energy and meager resources to barely stay alive. Excluding some First Nations communities and inner city areas where grass roots people are barely staying alive, this is not as big an issue in North America and Europe as it is in other places of the world. We have tables of plenty, especially here in Canada. The greedy, wealthy, clever, selfish and influential dine on the very best at it.

The poor and discouraged wait aside, scram-bling and even begging for the left overs and

crumbs dropped or even thrown to them from the tables. It appears the current Catholic Pope, who was recently in the USA addressed this moral crisis. Ignoring him - while putting on the façade that they were not ignoring him – remain the greedy, wealthy, clever, selfish and influential.

Equally as disturbing are those recipients of crumbs thrown their way; those who have sold their souls in order to become comfortable based on the crumbs – even in relatively small ways – or who badly want to be so (aka “immoral wanna-bees.”) They cuddle up to and mimic their crumb-dropping masters while mentally and physically remain indifferent by distancing themselves from the poor. Is the term social-economic climbers or yuppies or even hypocrites too kind to describe them?

Syria: Shattered and stunnedAn old man sat among

the ruins of his fam-ily’s bombed-out home, clutching his dead grand-daughter’s favourite toy. Tears trickled down his cheeks. His vacant eyes stared blankly at the doll’s smiling face. The old man began rocking back and forth and then spoke in a hoarse whis-per. “Once upon a time children laughed and played; fragrant flowers

grew in lush gardens; and birds ushered in each new day with their songs. For years Syrians have been dehumanized by death and destruction; numbed by pain and suffering; and crushed by fear and despair. Our children’s dreams have been bru-tally snatched away by the ruthless agents of igno-rance, intolerance and greed. Why, God? Tell me why?” The old man sat

motionless for a long time waiting for an answer. Finally, he struggled to his feet, stared up into the sky

and shouted, “Why must it be like this?”

Do Harper’s Conservatives Help Seniors?

• March 31, 2015 marked the one-year anniversary of the death of the National Health Accord.

• The Harper government is eliminating the equalization portion of the Canada Health Transfer (CHT) and replacing it with an equal per capita transfer. It is estimated that this will create a funding gap for the have-not provinces of $16.5 billion over the next 5 years. The only province to benefi t from this change is Alberta.

• The share of federal transfers in health spending is set to fall from the current level of 20% to below 12%.

• Government estimates show that nearly 250,000 Canadian seniors will lose their poverty-preventing GIS each year by 2030.

• Canada remains one of the few G7 nations that do not have a national dementia strategy.

• The Conservatives have decided that people should not retire at 65, so they are moving the age of eligibility for Old Age Security (OAS) and the Guaranteed Income Supplement (GIS) to 67.

• They have increased the discount on the Canada Pension Plan if you take it before 65, as a means to keep people working longer.

• You used to have to be in Canada 10 years to be eligible for OAS. In the last budget bill, they changed this to 20 years.

A Liberal government is committed to an immediate $3 billion investment, over the next four years, in home care.

We will also reduce the costs of prescription medication and increase availability of mental health services.

We will also help lift hundreds of thousands of seniors out of poverty by immediately boosting the Guaranteed Income Supplement for single low-income seniors by 10%.

We will also restore the eligibility age for Old Age Security and the Guaranteed Income Supplement to 65, putting an average of $13,000 into the pockets of the lowest income Canadians each year, as they become seniors.

Because many seniors live on fi xed incomes, we will introduce a new Seniors Price Index to make sure that Old Age Security and the Guaranteed Income Supplement benefi ts keep up with seniors’ actual rising costs.

We will also make the Compassionate Care Benefi t more fl exible and easier to access, so that those who are caring for seriously ill family members – not just family members who are at risk of death – can access 6 months of benefi ts.

We will prioritize investments in affordable housing and seniors’ facilities, build more new housing units and refurbish old ones, give support to municipalities to maintain rent-geared-to-income subsidies in co-ops.

We will encourage the construction of new rental housing by removing all GST on new capital investments in affordable rental housing. This will provide $125 million per year in tax incentives to grow and renovate the supply of rental housing across Canada.

We will modernize the existing Home Buyers’ Plan to allow Canadians impacted by sud-den and signifi cant life changes to buy a house without tax penalty. This will ease the bur-den on Canadians facing the death of a spouse, or a decision to accommodate an elderly family member.

By 2030, seniors will number more than 9 million and make up about 25 per cent of the population.

Going above and beyond the call of duty for one local doctor

Erin KnutsonHope Standard

Esteemed Dr. Joshua Greggain recently won the Fraser Health Above and Beyond Award (Service Delivery Excellence) for his outstanding contri-bution to improving healthcare in Hope and the Fraser Canyon.

“There were unique challenges and opportunities when I started my full time practice in 2007 at a rural hospital — there were challenging times and we had to be creative,”

Dr. Joshua Greggain told The Hope Standard of the trajectory of his success over the past few years at the Fraser Canyon Hospital.

According to Greggain, physicians practice rural generalism out here, and have to be prepared for a host of circumstances and situations specific to an isolated setting.

“There are inherent risks and you have to do cer-tain things in care of patients,” said Greggain. “You have to act — you have to be able do things you’re not comfortable with for that patient,” he said. “If a heart needs to be shocked — you do it, and that takes courage.”

Passionate about his work, Greggain has been acknowledged by peers and contemporaries for the excellent service he provides to the community. With his ground breaking initiatives and the reten-tion of a phenomenal team of ten local physicians, Greggain has been delivering quality care to the rural communities he serves, while addressing the shortage of doctors.

Greggain has embarked on a tireless journey to deal with the lack of physicians here, by creating an inspiring environment, where professionals can work together, persevere, be inspired and commit to exceeding the standard of care the industry currently provides to its patients.

“It’s about creating better care and providing care that’s exceptional in a community this size,” he said.

The lively and humorous Greggain, told The Hope Standard that one of his biggest challenges was attracting talent to a smaller community, so it was key for him to create an impactful environment where interns and physicians, regardless of future plans to stay in the community can grow, learn and thrive.

“This type of environment sends out the message that Hope has a program attractive to doctors,” said Greggain.Implementing a strong leadership model, Greggain has been instrumental in attracting fam-ily physicians, International Medical Graduates and locums to Hope and surrounding areas, while provid-ing comprehensive care, 24 hours a day at the Fraser Canyon Hospital.

“It’s about stability and we have a strong core group who are willing and available to go above and beyond — we have a group of people who are committed, people who want to stay for the passion of it,” he said.

Because of its unique location on a major highway crossroads the Fraser Canyon Hospital has been indispensable to patients in the area. Having extra hands on board at the Hospital has improved the patient to physician ratio, while ensuring a higher quality of life for the practitioners (who can often be at risk of burnout with the ongoing problem of physi-cian shortages across Canada.)

An outreach initiative started by Greggain in Boston Bar has put the Fraser Canyon on the map in terms of new strategies and medical technologies to address gaps in local health care — a satellite clinic in Anderson Creek is the first of its kind and rep-resents a careful collaboration between Boston Bar, First Nations, Chilliwack Division of Family Practice, Fraser Health and Health Canada. Public, mental and primary health care services are also available through a state of the art telehealth and video-health service that offers a life line to isolated patients.

The telehealth unit located at the Fraser Canyon Clinic on Wallace Street is as simple as hooking up the link, and through a live teleconference, patients from surrounding areas like Boston Bar can receive first rate care with physicians in Hope.

“Telehealth is the way of the future — it’s a way to bridge the gap geographically, while addressing socioeconomic issues and providing a once a week outreach in Boston Bar,” said Greggain.

Dr. Joshua Greggain (centre) practices his real life super hero pose, as he competed at a tough mudder competition for Multiple Sclerosis in Chilliwack.

SportsHeading up the creek on cue

Barry StewartHope Standard

The fall run of kokanee salmon should be heading up the creeks on the east side of Kawkawa Lake.

These are a version of sock-eye salmon, which have lost the urge to spend part of their time in the ocean. Like its sea-run cousin, the kokanee’s body takes on a red colour when spawning and the head turns dark green. Males develop a bigger jaw and humped back.

Locals have known about the Kawkawa kokanees for many years but few, perhaps, are aware that the lake has another species of Pacific salmon that has lost its wan-derlust and is happy to live full-time in the lake.

Coho.If you’ve ever caught a spot-

ted fish in Kawkawa Lake that you know wasn’t a cutthroat or rainbow trout, it probably was a non-anadromous or “land-locked” coho, says Nick Basok of Rosedale.

Basok spent 25 years as a fish culturist at the Fraser Valley Trout hatchery in Abbotsford before retiring and taking on a job at Chilliwack Dart and Tackle. He continues to serve as a public advisor for the Freshwater Fisheries Society of BC.

“I first fished Kawkawa in 1961 with my dad,” said Basok on Monday. “The lake at that time was stocked with rain-bow and they actually grew quite large — two to three pounds — and there was a good amount of kokanee also.

“I believe the stocking was halted in the late 60's or early 70's and that eventually the rainbow disappeared and the kokanee became the domi-nant preference for fishery.

The coastal cutthroat that are present in the lake are probably derivatives from some sea-run cutthroat that at one time made their way into the lake and started a residualized population that has leveled off to what the lake can support.”

After the mature kokanee have spawned and died off, sea-run coho and chum can be seen in small numbers in the east-side creeks. It’s these sea-run coho that Basok believes have started a resident species.

“When coho go through lakes to spawn, their smolts spend their first year in the lake before going to the ocean — but there’s always that 10 per cent that want to stay there,” he

said. “It happens in Cultus Lake, too.“I think they have formed their own popu-

lation in Kawkawa Lake — male and female. The numbers are so high, at least half the size of the kokanee population,” he estimates.

And these aren’t sea-run smolts, which Basok estimates are 15 to 20 grams when they leave the lake to migrate to the ocean. These resident coho would fit nicely in a frying pan. Problem is you might be on shaky legal ground to keep them, says Basok.

“Coho retention in the lake is a gray area, as there are no regulations that I know of keep-ing them in a lake rather than in a river, where all wild coho must be released.”

The gray area comes from the fact that

these coho have no interest in going to the ocean, where they come under the realm of federal fisheries.

Basok’s photo of a kokanee and lake-based coho showed a clear difference.

“The kokanee is more tuna-shaped and is silver but the coho has solid spots from one end to the other and on the tail,” explained Basok. “I have always told people to release the coho, just to be sure they don’t get fined.”

“Anglers who have tried them, thinking that they were trout or kokanee said they were great tasting. The kokanee are also amazing table fare regardless if you pan fry, bake, bar-becue or smoke them,” said Basok.

“It’s the best kokanee fishery in the Lower

Mainland — by far,” he added. “It’s a wild system that works so well, we don’t want to fool with it.

“The creeks on the far side are perfect for spawning. They’re spring-fed, with a constant flow and there’s not a lot of development out there.

“There’s also tons of zooplankton in the lake. You need that for kokanee.”

If we can observe resident coho spawning in the creeks in November and December, we’ll know more about this unusual popula-tion.

Basok has many tips on fishing the lake, which will be shared next spring after the annual December to February closure.

An avid fishermen displays the specimen of a resident coho salmon at Kawkawa Lake. The coho is known for its spots from head to tail.
