Police suspect serial arsonistVikki HOPESAbbotsford News
A possible serial arsonist remains at large in Abbotsford, as investigators continue to look into five suspicious fires that occurred in less than 48 hours last week.
Abbotsford Police Const. Ian MacDonald said the cause of each of the fires will not likely be released at this time.
“We’re not going to jeopardize the investigation,” he said, adding that the details could serve as “hold-back information” that only the suspect would know.
MacDonald said investigators believe the five fires are the work of an arsonist or arsonists because they all occurred after midnight in a relatively small geographical area.
Two of the fires occurred early Friday morning, and the other three took place on Wednesday morning.
One of Friday morning’s fires took place in the 32200 block of Hillcrest Avenue, the same road on which a blaze destroyed a vacant home and garage on Wednesday.
The latest fire was also at an abandoned home and was reported by witnesses at about 12:30 a.m. The house suffered extensive damage to the basement.

Service (AFRS) and the Abbotsford Police Department (APD) were still at that location, another witness re-ported a fire in the car-port of a home in the 2400 block of Adelaide Street at 2:15 a.m.
A family of four and their neighbours had to be evacuated while that blaze was con-tained. Damage was mainly to the garage.
This was simi-lar to the scene on Wednesday morning, when a fire was set at the outside rear of the Red Apple Food Store on Marshall Road while seven people were in-side the residential units of the building. All escaped without in-jury.
In addition to that fire
and the one on Hillcrest Avenue on Wednesday, a small fire was set in a covered area of a bank in the 2500 block of Clearbrook Road.
MacDonald said the investigation into these incidents is currently the top priority for both the AFRS and APD.
“We are extreme-
ly concerned. The Marshall Road and Adelaide locations con-tained families, and clearly lives were at risk,” MacDonald said.
Anyone with informa-tion is asked to call the APD at 604-859-5225, text abbypd (222973) or call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
A blaze at a home on Adelaide Street was one of three that occurred in Abbotsford early Friday morning. KEVIN MACDONALD Abbotsford News

The city plans to create an arms-length economic development corporation that will focus on promoting and developing business in the community.
The proposal was approved by council last Monday, but some councillors remain concerned that such an organization would lack transparency, and the initiative has proceeded without public consultation.
The idea for the corporation was put forth by the mayor’s task force on economic prosperity, which worked since 2011 to find ways to improve the city’s prospects.
Coun. Henry Braun, who sat on the task force, said he has had “serious reservations” about the plan from the beginning.
Currently, Abbotsford’s economic development function operates internally and was previously included under the planning department.
In a report to council, deputy city manager Jake Rudolph explained that “numerous, if not most, cities have estab-lished development functions,” with positive impacts. Rudolph oversaw the implementation of an economic develop-ment corporation in Pitt Meadows while he served there as chief administrative officer.
Other communities in the region have economic development corporations, including Chilliwack and Surrey.
Chilliwack’s organization, the Chilliwack Economic Partners Corporation (CEPCO), has been incorporated as a private company since 1998. It has a 16- to 20-person board of directors, with private and public sector members, including the mayor, one councillor, the city’s chief administrative officer, as well as representation from the chamber of commerce, the University of the Fraser Valley and the community.
CEPCO provides services including working to obtain new lands for industry and commercial growth, co-ordinating investments
in Chilliwack, assisting in employee recruitment for businesses, and helping to obtain funding for employee training.
Rudolph said Abbotsford’s corporation would work with the business community to encourage business retention and expan-sion, as well as assist in attracting and facilitating new investment.
However, Braun said he’s still concerned that such an entity would provide adequate transparency.
“A corporation would be shielded from public scrutiny and accountability in a way that is not the same as if it was handled within local government,” he said, adding there has been a lack of
consultation with the public.Rudolph said the city would set out the provisions for
transparency, in which council would receive reports and consultation. They would also appoint a board of directors, which would include representation from council.
“In my experience, there hasn’t been that perception of a lack of transparency.”
Rudolph maintained a corporation would dedicate itself to the economic development of the municipality, not undertaking development projects.
Braun said he is all for making a profit to reduce taxes, but “we have not had a stellar history of making great decisions in some areas.”
He said the city needs to rebuild the trust of its taxpayers and residents, and “I do not see this as doing that.”
Mayor Bruce Banman said Braun’s concerns about transparency can be addressed as the corporation is created.
“I believe we need to get on this. We have been asleep at the wheel and allowing other cities to go by us as we sit here and try to figure out what model we’re going to do.”
The report states that the city has an economic development budget of $323,850, but staff have been advised that a budget of $550,000 to $750,000 would be industry norms for a city the size of Abbotsford. The budget will be reviewed as a part of the 2015 budget process.

Teachers start job actionImpact of phase one won’t affect students, says district and union
Jason ROESSLEAbbotsford News
Phase one of teacher job action is expected to commence today (April 23), after the B.C. Teachers’ Federation (BCTF) is-sued 72-hour strike notice Monday.
This initial step in a three-phase plan will not impact stu-dents, according to Abbotsford school district superintendent Kevin Godden, a sentiment echoed by Abbotsford District Teachers’ Association (ADTA) president Doug Smuland.
Teachers will not perform non-essential duties, as deter-mined by the Labour Relations Board. This includes attending meetings and communication with management, in addition to supervision of students before and after school, during lunch hour and recess.
While this action does not add extra financial stress to the district, Godden said, “I’m very concerned about deploying people away from their duties” to ensure supervision.
This additional work slows down the operation of the busi-ness of running the district, he explained.
Teachers will continue to take attendance, mark and assess student work, complete report cards and volunteer for extra-
curricular activities, such as coaching, according to a letter that went out to parents April 22 from Godden.
Smuland said he hasn’t heard any negative feedback from parents via local teachers so far.
In addition to wage increases to bring B.C. teachers closer to parity with their counterparts across the country, he said one of the union’s most pressing concerns is class size.
Phase two of the BCTF plan is rotating one-day walkouts in districts around the province. Phase three, a full-scale strike, would require a second vote by members.
Support staff strike voteAbbotsford school district’s support staff have also voted
recently to strike, but so far, district administration has not received communication from Teamsters Local 31 as to when action may begin. The union is required to issue 72-hour no-tice.
Support staff include clerical, educational assistants, bus drivers, custodians and maintenance workers.
Comment from a representative of Local 31 was not avail-able by The News’ press deadline.
Camp cleanup ordered after arrestAlex BUTLER and Vikki HOPESAbbotsford News
The removal of the camp of a home-less man who was shot with non-lethal rounds during a po-lice incident in down-town Abbotsford last week has a local ad-vocate voicing con-cerns.
Last Wednesday, Abbotsford Police were called to the Abbotsford Food Bank on Essendene Avenue at about 2:15 p.m. after receiving a re-port of a distraught man waving a knife.
The man refused to com-ply with officers’ commands, Abbotsford Police spokesman Const. Ian MacDonald said at the time.
Police subdued the man using guns that fire beanbags and rubber bullets. He was taken to hospital for treat-ment, but was not seriously injured.
Colin Roy Roberts, 57, who goes by his middle name, has been charged with possess-ing a weapon for a danger-ous purpose, according to the provincial court database.
He was taken into custody and was slated to appear in Abbotsford provincial court Tuesday for a bail hearing.
In the days following, Ward Draper, an advocate for the homeless with 5 and 2 Ministries, was critical of how the city dealt with Roberts.
The homeless man oc-cupied an area close to Abbotsford Community Services (ACS) on Montvue Avenue for several months.
Draper said that following last Wednesday’s incident, various agencies includ-ing police, 5 and 2, ACS, the Salvation Army and a city councillor, began an email chain to determine what should happen with Roberts and his belongings while he was in hospital.
Draper said while plans were being worked out, a con-
tractor with no knowledge of the homeless community was hired by someone with the City of Abbotsford to clear out Roberts’ belongings. Draper said they threw out most of the items “except for a pile of scrap metal.”
Jake Rudolph, deputy city manager, said that discus-sions between city staff and service providers about how to address Roberts’ camp had been occurring long be-fore the police incident, in response to numerous com-plaints from the local busi-ness community.
After the man was taken into custody, the camp was left empty.
Rudolph said they received
reports that another individual had al-ready begun to re-move materials from the site.
He said a pub-lic works em-ployee went there on Saturday with a contractor and gave instructions to throw out some of the garbage piled on the street, and to re-move the rest of the items and take them to the city’s public works yard until they could be dealt with.
Rudolph said after the public works employee left, the contractors took more to the transfer station than what had been intend-ed.
Draper said the camp cleanup was undertaken de-spite last month’s formation of a task force to address concerns relating to the city’s homeless residents.
“We feel again that the city did not take the right course of action by neglecting ... to contact the necessary ser-vices, including the Salvation Army and such.”
Rudolph said the city made an effort to save Roberts’ things and what remains is in the public works yard.
This homeless camp, photographed earlier this year, was situated on Montvue Avenue for months before it was cleared on the weekend after the occupant was involved in a police incident.

An Abbotsford woman has pleaded guilty to seven of the 29 fraud and theft charges she faced after a crime spree that took place in 2011 and 2012.
Michelle Lee La Chapelle, 34, is sched-
uled for a sentencing hearing on July 14 in Abbotsford provincial court on two counts of theft, two counts of unauthorized use of credit card data and one count each of fraud, possession of a stolen credit card, and possession of proper-ty obtained by crime.
The other charges are
expected to be stayed.La Chapelle was
charged in September 2012 for offences dat-ing from November 2011 to August 2012.
Following her ar-rest, Abbotsford Police said she was accused of stealing wallets or purses and then using the credit cards in them – or the infor-
mation on the cards – to purchase items such as tires, elec-tronics and gift cards.
In one incident, she apparently snatched a toaster that was plugged in at a local recreation centre.
Police at the time were also looking into whether La Chapelle had links to more than
a dozen complaints about a woman in her 30s who approached people and claimed she needed cash for a medical emergency or other situations in-volving her child.
La Chapelle was charged after an
Abbotsford Police fraud investigator pieced to-gether several separate incidents and linked them to La Chapelle, using tools such as video surveillance.
La Chapelle has nu-merous prior convic-tions for offences such
as theft, fraud, posses-sion of stolen property, using a stolen credit card and breaching her probation.
In 2006, she receivingan 18-month condi-tional sentence (housearrest) for a robbery inNew Westminster.

The provincial gov-ernment has replaced Fraser Health board chair David Mitchell as it continues a probe into budget overruns at B.C.’s biggest health authority.
Wynne Powell, the longtime chair of the Provincial Health Services Authority, will take over on an interim basis.
The move comes more than five months into a strategic and op-erational review ordered into Fraser by the prov-ince as a result of its recurring failure to stay within its budget alloca-tions. Fraser has been receiving six per cent a year budget increases in recent years – more than 4.8 per cent at other B.C. health regions – with the health min-ister saying that’s out of line with the region’s population increases of 1.3 per cent annually.
The large number of older residents in the region are expected to intensify pressure on Fraser’s budget.

CELEBRATING VAISAKHI
TRACY MCDONALD Vibrant Photos
An Abbotsford woman will hold her annual free South Asian feast on Saturday, April 26 in recognition of the Sikh celebration Vaisakhi.
Gurdip Dhaliwal will hold the luncheon starting at 11:30 a.m. at the Salvation Army’s Centre
of Hope at 34081 Gladys Ave., and it will take place until the food runs out.
Dhaliwal first began serving the feast – free to anyone in the community – on New Year’s Day in 2007. But a drop in at-tendance at the 2012 luncheon
prompted Dhaliwal to recon-sider the timing last year, andshe moved the event to April.
She cooks and serves the en-tire meal – including samosas, curried chick peas, vegetablesand rice pudding – with the help of family and friends.

MMBC opponents prepare for court fight
Jeff NAGELBlack Press
Business opponents of Multi Material BC (MMBC) are planning a court challenge to re-verse the takeover of B.C.’s curbside recycling system by the steward-ship agency.
They continue to urge the provincial govern-ment to freeze the new MMBC system before it takes effect May 19, but are also laying the groundwork for a legal battle.
Kelvin McCulloch, CEO of the Buckerfield’s chain of farm supply stores, is urging other businesses to sign and submit their MMBC con-tract but then give no-tice to the government that they won’t pay fees or otherwise cooperate with the new system to collect packaging and printed paper.
McCulloch intends to gather opt-out letters from numerous busi-nesses across B.C. and deliver them to the prov-ince. If the MMBC rollout continues, he said, they will argue in court that the MMBC contracts were invalid and they were coerced to join the government-created re-cycling monopoly.
“We’re fairly confi-dent at this point it will be struck down,” McCulloch said. “No company in their right mind would sign that contract of their own free will.”
The province contends MMBC is voluntary and
various industries could instead form their own separate waste-collect-ing organization.
That option is not practical or reasonable, McCulloch said.
“The suggestion that we are able to launch or own stewardship program independent of MMBC is a sham.”
The MMBC program aims to transfer recy-cling costs from mu-nicipal taxpayers to the producers who generate packaging and printed paper, while collecting more containers and material types than before. But many busi-nesses argue they’re un-fairly compelled to pay far higher fees than a similar system run in Ontario.
Critics say MMBC’s three-member interim board is controlled by executives with mul-tinational firms like Unilever and Proctor and Gamble who have manipulated the launch of the new program to their benefit rather than the interests of most B.C. businesses.
Questioned by the NDP last week, Environment Minister Mary Polak said she expects a more representative 15-mem-ber permanent board to be named soon after MMBC’s launch.
A new advisory coun-cil was also recently unveiled by MMBC with reps from several B.C. business groups, but critics say it has no real power.

Published and printed by Black Press Limited 34375 Gladys Avenue, Abbotsford
‘Greatest threat to the B.C. environment in our lifetime’My name is David Black. I am the major-
ity owner of Black Press, the company that owns this newspaper.
This is the first of two columns addressing what I see as the greatest threat to the B.C. environment in our lifetime. I am a reason-ably sensible and conservative business-man, not an alarmist. All of the information in this column can be confirmed from public sources.
The oil industry wants to export Alberta bitumen to Asia via tankers. Under no circumstances should we allow that to happen. A bitumen spill at sea could destroy our coast-line, together with the fish and wild-life that depend on it, for hundreds of years.
Bitumen, even if it is diluted, does not float in sea water if there is sediment present. This has been proven many times, most recently in a thorough Environment Canada study published on Nov. 30, 2013. Page 51 of the study provides graphic evidence of sunken bitumen. Given that there is an abundance of sediment along the B.C. coast, the bitumen will sink rapidly and there will be little chance of re-covering any of it if there is a spill.
By Northern Gateway’s own admission the likelihood of a bitumen spill at sea is over
10 per cent over the next 50 years. Others say it is much higher. We are in agreement with the position taken by the coastal First Nations that even the slightest risk of a spill of bitumen at sea is unacceptable.
The grounding of the Exxon Valdez in Alaska in 1989 is often held up as an ex-ample of how bad an oil spill at sea can be,
however, a spill of bitumen would be much worse. The Exxon Valdez carried light crude and lost 250,000 barrels, one-eighth of a tanker load. The light oil floated and could be removed from the beaches.
Even so, after four years of work with up to 11,000 workers and 1,400 boats involved, less than 10 per cent of it was recovered. Roughly 200,000 birds and many kinds of other wild-life were killed. Approximately 1,300
miles of shoreline were affected and the fishery has yet to fully recover.
Bitumen is very different. It would harden up on shore and much of it would sink to the bottom, making it unrecoverable and killing virtually everything with which it came in contact. Imagine if we lost a full tanker load.
Some say that, with GPS-based navigation and double hulls, spills such as Exxon Valdez are not possible today. They are wrong.
Double hulls do not prevent hull fracture if there is a collision at speed, only if there is a gentle scrape. As for the GPS claim, most marine accidents are caused by human in-attention, not by a lack of knowledge about position. All ships carried systems to indi-cate their location before GPS came along. The Exxon Valdez crew could have glanced
at their instruments to determine their loca-tion but they didn’t – neither did the crew on the Queen of the North.
Marine disasters regularly occur, and a quick search of the Internet shows human error is most often the problem. Undoubtedly, there will be many more ma-rine accidents in future. Our grandchildren will not thank us if we willingly risk the destruction of the B.C. coast on our watch.
Fortunately, there is a solution that is ben-eficial for all concerned: all we have to do is
build a refinery at Kitimat. I am promotingand backing this solution.The refinery willconvert the bitumen to gasoline, diesel andjet fuel which float and evaporate if they arespilled. Often, little or no spill remediation isrequired. These refined fuels simply do notcause the habitat destruction of convention-al or synthetic crude oil, or anywhere nearthe devastation caused by bitumen.
The second part of this opinion piecewill run in the next issue. It will discussthe enormous value-add benefits and en-vironmental advantages of a modern greenrefinery. The pipeline from Alberta and thetanker fleet to export the refined fuels willalso be considered.
Let me declare my biases. I am for creatingthousands of good permanent jobs in B.C. Iam for creating billions of new tax dollarsfor government coffers. I am for reducingthe planet’s greenhouse gas emissions. I amfor building an oil pipeline that will neverleak. I am for building a modern tanker fleetthat carries only refined fuels that float andevaporate if spilled. I am against shippingbitumen in tankers.
If you agree that we should not put bitu-men in tankers, please contact your localMP and say so. The Canadian governmentmakes a decision on this next month.
David Black
Abbotsford’s ill-fated initiative to bring profes-sion hockey to this city is over, to the disappoint-ment of fans, but the relief of many taxpayers.
Five years into the 10-year agreement with the AHL Heat, the contract has been severed with a $5.5-million buyout. That brings the investment of local taxpayers’ money in this deal to nearly $13 million, including the 2013-14 season’s loss which the city is obligated to cover. The city’s contract with the Heat guaranteed the team $5.7 million in an annual supply fee, with any shortfall coming out of the public purse.
Over the first half of that agreement, the Heat saw more than $7 million in deficits, and were on course to rack up another $11 million in red ink over the next five years.
Faced with that prospect, the city negotiated an end to the financial hemorraghing. Make no mis-take – the Calgary Flames were not going to pack up their affiliate AHL team without compensa-tion for a half-fulfilled contract.
With the exception of the mayor and one coun-cillor, this is the same council that signed the original Heat deal. Voters have been exceedingly patient, considering that all of those incumbents were re-elected in 2011. Four of the current coun-cillors were part of the civic government that
brought the three projects of Plan A into existence in 2009, including the entertainment centre.
Was it wise to build a 7,000-seat arena in Abbotsford? Hindsight strongly suggests no, but the council of the day, and a small majority of vot-ers, believed otherwise. And then came the reality of securing an anchor tenant to fill those seats on a consistent basis. What followed was a highly controversial deal based on dreamy or desperate optimism, in which public money was committed to put a pro hockey team on the ice.
What remains is a top-notch facility, which has drawn world-class shows and performers. However, it now lacks a major tenant, and has a track record of $2-million annual losses, which may increase without the revenue generated by a hockey team. The loan incurred to build it costs $4 million annually to service – over the next 20 years.
Last week, the mayor vowed any new tenant would be revenue-positive, without taxpayer sup-port. Politically, it’s impossible to imagine other-wise. The rest of the “new” plan for the centre, featuring a name change, increased community access, and an openness to any new hockey team overtures, is uninspiring.
The Heat debacle is over – the arena challenge remains.
Arena challenge remains
A bitumen spill at sea could destroy our coastline, together with the fish and wildlife that depend on it...

Financial logic should guide decisionsCongratulations to
city elders for finally making the no-brain-er decision to extract taxpayers from fur-ther Abbotsford Heat-related financial pain.
As we have learned, history often repeats itself.
Hoping not to re-peat decisions made by those who, through their naive, star-struck visions of glory refused
to ensure a profes-sional business plan including adequate market research, let’s be a little more “prac-tical” when in future spending (investing?) taxpayers’ money.
To those councillors who originally so en-thusiastically promot-ed and approved bring-ing the Abbotsford Heat into our community, please consider even
for a few moments comments made by Jordan Bateman, B.C. director of the Canadian Taxpayers Federation, that $12.7 million could have pro-vided citizens “a lot of cops; that’s a lot of road repairs; that’s a lot of sewer and water infra-structure that could have been built.”
Go gamble your own money in local casinos
if you wish, but you had no right to play with taxpayer dollars!
Sitting city council-lors, it’s nice that you occasionally allow emotions to shapeyour thinking, but please don’t allow them to overrule fi-nancial logic when re-sponsible for spendingother people’s money.
Tony JonesAbbotsford

Re: Happy now with Heat loss? April 18 edition.
Mr. Fankhanel writes regarding the departure of the Abbotsford Heat, “This was our team representing Abbotsford and we should all have been on board supporting this team.”
The men on this team were never “our team.”
They are called hockey players. These players are from all over the country. The Calgary Flames are called “the owners.” The owners buy, sell and trade the players, at will.
Abbotsford council had absolutely no business tying our tax dollars into subsidizing the private business ven-tures of either the local owners, or the Calgary Flames.
Nor was it legal to consign the taxpayers to a contract beyond five years.
The only sad thing about their de-parture is that they are taking $5.5 million more with them. What a sad state of leadership in our city.
Gerda PeacheyAbbotsford
As we prepare to wave good-bye to the Heat from AbbotsfordAirport for thelast time, myonly regret isthat the emptyseats on the plane are not filled with thecouncil memberswho voted “yes”in the first place.

Give it up for hungerFood bank hosts team challenge and auction
The Abbotsford Food Bank holds its first Give it Up for Hunger event from May 5 to 9 to promote awareness of hunger in the community, and to raise funds to meet that need.
The event offers two ways for businesses and individuals to participate.
One is the Give it Up Team Challenge, a contest in which local businesses are encour-aged to form teams and get creative with what they can give up for a week in order to raise money for the food bank.
Teams will compete against each other to see who can raise the most money, with the winning team receiving a trophy and prizes.
The other way to participate is through the Abbotsford Food Bank Online Auction.
During the week of May 5 to 9, donated items and services will be auctioned off online, with all proceeds going to the food bank.
More items are still needed to make the auction a success.
The Abbotsford Food Bank helps more than 3,000 people each month, 1,200 of whom are children.
The agency provides $2.5 million worth of food to the community each year and runs all of its programs – such as Basics for Babies, Blessings in a Backpack, a dental clin-ic, a soccer camp, emergen-cy food, and the Christmas
Bureau – on an $800,000 bud-get solely dependent on dona-tions.
”Though the need is con-stant, during the spring andsummer months our dona-tions run dangerously low. Weare hoping this event can bol-ster our monetary and fooddonations as well as increaseawareness of the need in ourcommunity year-round,” saidDave Murray, food bank direc-tor.
Visit abbotsfordfoodbank.com/giveitupforhungerevent/ for details on how to sign upa team or donate an auctionitem.

Compost program increases waste
diversion to 67%Additional 5,400 tonnes of garbage
kept out of landfills last year
Alex BUTLERAbbotsford News
Abbotsford’s curb-side collection pro-gram diverted 67 per cent of waste last year compared to 43 per cent in 2012 – saving an additional 5,400 tonnes from the land-fill.
In January 2013, the city implemented a new program of col-lecting organic waste weekly, along with re-cycling and reducing garbage pick-up to bi-weekly.
The program also led to a higher operat-ing surplus – $345,000 – compared to 2012, when the city had a surplus of $144,000.
Any additional di-version from garbage to compostables and recycling in 2014 will result in additional savings to the city.
But staff notes that there are upcoming changes that could impact the city’s pro-gram.
The city opted out of the new provin-cial plan for Multi-Material BC (MMBC), which aims to make producers pay for packaging and print-ed paper and would assume responsibil-ity for curbside pick-up in communities. But with the program beginning opera-tion province-wide in
May, the city could enter into an agree-ment with MMBC in the future, impacting Abbotsford’s waste collection.
As the city oppos-es Metro Vancouver’s plans to build another waste-to-energy gar-bage incinerator, the city will look to find alternatives to using the Metro Vancouver Matsqui Transfer Station. This will help the city avoid the sig-nificant increase in Metro tipping fees which are scheduled to start next year and ensure the city’s money is not contrib-uting to the incinera-tor plan.
The city is also cur-rently conducting consultations with food services, pro-cessing businesses and multi-family properties for a food-waste diversion plan, which could signifi-cantly impact waste diversion.
Jim Gordon, the city’s manager of en-gineering and region-al utilities, explained that staff are now working to include apartments and busi-nesses, “so we can gradually push our diversion up and up so the discussion of burning garbage isn’t even relevant any-more.”

Blues society first show April 26
Jason ROESSLEAbbotsford News
A group of blues music lovers have formed a society in hopes of bringing more live acts to the region.
The Fraser Valley Blues Society (FVBS) is hosting its first show April 26 at Abbotsford’s Eagles Hall, which will feature the musi-cal talents of the internationally known Harpdog Brown Band.
The Saturday night event will serve as a launch for the band’s new CD, What It Is. The band features the talents of frontman Harpdog Brown, John R Hunter (drums), Jordan Edmonds (guitar) and George Fenn (bass).
Brown, who legally changed his name to Harpdog last summer, is 52, and sings and plays the blues harp. The music has been de-scribed as similar to 1950s Chicago blues.
Harpdog has released six CDs. In 1995, his Home is Where The Harp Is won the Muddy Award for the best Northwest Blues Release of the year. Also that year, that CD was nominated for a Juno for the Best Blues Release in Canada.
Teamed up with Graham Guest on piano, the CD Naturally was voted the number one Canadian
Blues Album of 2011 by The BlindLemon Survey.
The FVBS came together this pastDecember, said Mac MacDonald,one of the founders.
He said the core group foundeach other “going to blues festi-vals here and around the Pacific Northwest. We’re just very inter-ested in the genre.”
There are few venues for liveblues in the Fraser Valley, said MacDonald, and the society hopesto change that, as well as interestyounger people in that style of music.
In keeping with engaging youth,the FVBS has partnered with the Devon Clifford Music Foundation,and will be raising funds for that organization, which formed in2010 and provides an opportunity to pursue music for youth who might not otherwise be able.
Society memberships will be forsale at the show.
Tickets to the April 26 show are$20 and are available at the Eagles Hall (33868 Essendene Ave.) or by calling 604-850-3653 or 604-615-1300. The doors open at 7 p.m.,and the show runs from 8 p.m. tomidnight.

Human trafficking addressed at
upcoming meetingHuman trafficking is the fastest-growing and
most lucrative criminal enterprise in Canada, ac-cording to a group dedicated to battling it, and an event on April 26 in Abbotsford aims to heightenawareness to the issue.
“It is estimated that traffickers in Canada makean average of $280,000 per year per victim be-cause demand is so high for trafficked women,” said Joy Smith, of the Joy Smith Foundation.
A breakfast meeting, which starts at 8:30 a.m.,will happen at Garden Park Towers on Clearbrook Road, and will feature talks from Smith and Abbotsford Police Department Chief Bob Rich.
Smith was a former teacher in Winnipeg and is now known across Canada as an anti-human trafficking advocate. The Kildonan-St. Paul MPpresented Bill C-268 in 2010 to the CanadianParliament, which was adopted. This created a new criminal offence for child trafficking withtough minimum sentences.
Tickets to the breakfast can be purchased byvisiting joysmithfoundation.com or by calling Brad Vis at 778-808-9602.

Craft beer expands in ValleyJason ROESSLEAbbotsford News
The sweeping popu-larity of craft beer isn’t just confined to down-town Vancouver.
Beer has been having a renaissance for the past number of years across North America, with more and more consumers choosing to seek out and pur-chase the beverage from smaller companies.
The market has been dominated for decades by the massive compa-nies.
That, much to the joy of nascent and veteran beer geeks, is changing.
No longer is beer con-sidered to just be a pale yellow lager. Customers can now get pale, India pale, Belgian wheat, marzen, Oktoberfest, Scotch and a host of other beers with origins around the planet at dozens of liquor retail-ers in the Fraser Valley and Lower Mainland.
More than 20 new breweries have started up in the region in the past two years, and this fast-paced growth shows little sign of slow-ing.
Abbotsford’s Tim Brown would agree.
A professional brewer for the past 15 years and former head brewer at Mission Springs, Brown has recently completed his first bottled batch
of beer out of his new Townline Road busi-ness, Surlie Brewing.
He opened the doors Oct. 2, and has been installing thousands of dollars of stainless steel brew kettles, fermenters and other sundry pieces of brewing operations. His first beer to mar-ket is a Belgian-style pale ale, called Solitaire, similar to a Chimay, and ringing in at 6.5 per cent
alcohol by volume.The dark brown ale
exhibits a dried fruitaroma and is unfiltered,which means some yeast sediment will bepresent at the bottom of each bottle, a hallmark of many craft beers nowavailable on shelves. Brown has packagedhis creations in 650 mlbottles called bombers.
And the local marketis showing enough posi-tive growth signs thatexisting breweries are growing.
At the MissionSprings, renovationsare currently underwayat the brewpub that in-clude eight outdoor fer-mentation chambers, a22-metric tonne grainsilo, an automated bot-tling line, and more. “It’s an exciting time to be inthe industry,” said brew-master Kevin Winter.
Surlie Brewing’s Tim Brown stands by some of his new beer making equipment athis new operation on Townline Road.

The interest in craft beer is definitely growing, he said.
“We’re expanding from a brewpub with a little brewery, to a brewery with a restaurant,” Winter noted with a laugh.
The principal driver of the Springs’ growth is the business’s recent foray into bar ownership in Korea. The Springs currently has two taphouses in South Korea.
“It’s going so well we’re looking at opening more.”Winter says the local craft beer scene still has
room to grow.“I don’t think we’re at the point of saturation. The
more competition creates more demand.”

Not yet at saturation point, says Winter

Participants high-lighted a number of positive features of the school district, and chief among them were: quality of teachers andstaff, good communi-cation between schooland home, a focus onreading, and access tocomputers and technol-ogy.
The top skills thatparticipants felt young people needed for suc-cessful futures were:communication skills, accountability and per-sonal responsibility,problem-solving skills,academic basics andrespect.
“We have been care-fully reviewing thefeedback, and have abetter understanding of how we can continue toenhance the education-al experience we pro-vide for students,” said Cindy Schafer, chair of the board of education.
“This feedback is vitalto the ongoing work of our board’s strategicplan. It is reaffirming tohave many of the ideasprovided align with the six major themes of ourcurrent strategic plan.”

Second-best in the WestHost Pilots fall to Nitehawks in Keystone finalDan KINVIGAbbotsford News
To win a champion-ship, you need to be able to absorb your op-ponent’s best shot and keeping pressing for-ward.
That’s exactly what the Beaver Valley Nitehawks did on Sunday after-noon, as they beat the host Abbotsford Pilots 5-1 in the Keystone Cup title game.
The Pilots, seeking their second Western Canadian junior B hockey championship in three seasons, began the contest with a pur-pose – they’d lost 10-2 to Beaver Valley in their opening game of the round robin, and after winning their next four games en route to the final, were motivated to give a better account of themselves.
Playing before a near-capacity crowd at Abbotsford Recreation
Centre, they started like they’d been shot out of a cannon. Forward Brady Lawlor, in particular, was a heat-seeking missile, dishing out punishment on every shift.
But the Nitehawks persisted – after a score-
less opening frame, they struck twice in the sec-ond, then pulled away in the third to clinch gold.
“It wasn’t a lack of ef-fort on our part,” noted Pilots forward Jarrett Martin, who scored his team’s lone goal. “We gave it our all, it was just some bad bounces.
“They’re a good, skilled team – any time you mess up, it’s in the back of your net.”
The pace and physi-cality in the first period were exceptional, and both goalies came up with some terrific saves to keep it scoreless.
Nitehawks netmind-er Brett Clark stoned
Martin on a breakaway,and at the other end,Abby’s William Latimercame up with a sensa-tional series of stops asBeaver Valley buzzedaround his net during apower play.
The Nitehawks broke the ice at 4:04 of the second – Braden Fullerstole the puck from Pilots blueliner Ryan Parmar and shovelled itto Sam Swanson, whobeat Latimer with a highblocker-side wrist shot.
Lawlor had a coupleof excellent chancesto knot the score, butClark stoned him ona one-timer from the

Heat poised for playoffsBegin chase for Calder Cup at home vs. Grand Rapids
Dan KINVIGAbbotsford News
The final edition of the Abbotsford Heat also happens to be the best.
The Heat respond-ed to last week’s an-nouncement that they’ll be moving out of town at season’s end by going undefeated on a three-games-in-three-nights road trip to wrap up the regular-season schedule.
They began the jaunt with victories over the San Antonio Rampage on Thursday (3-1) and Friday (3-0), and capped it off with a 4-3 win over the first-place Texas Stars on Saturday.
Those results got the Heat to 43 victories on the season, which represents a new team record. The previous mark of 42 wins had been set in 2011-12.
Abbotsford (43-25-8, 94 points) also locked up fifth place in the Western Conference, and they’ll face the defending Calder Cup champion Grand Rapids Griffins, the No. 4 seed, in the first round of the playoffs.
They open the best-of-five series at home this week with Friday and Saturday games (7 p.m. both nights, Abbotsford Centre). The Detroit Red Wings affil-iate hosts the balance of the series – Game 3
goes Wednesday, April 30, with Games 4 and 5 (if necessary) running May 2-3.
“We’ve got a lot of confidence coming off that road trip,” Heat forward Max Reinhart said. “It’s huge, getting momentum going into the playoffs.”
Last week’s ac-tion was highlighted by milestones for Reinhart, Emile Poirier and Doug Carr.
Sophomore pro Reinhart notched five points (one goal, four assists) on the trip to establish a new team record for single-sea-son points. Reinhart finished with 21 goals and 42 assists for 63 points in 66 games, moving past Krys Kolanos, who set the previous mark in 2011-
12 with 30 goals and 31 assists for 61 points in just 47 games.
Poirier, a first-round draft choice by the Calgary Flames (22nd overall) in 2013, joined the Heat last week after his junior sea-son with the Gatineau Olympiques of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League ended. He authored a smash-ing pro debut, scoring
a goal in his first game on Friday, and for an encore, he posted three points (one goal, two assists) in Saturday’s win over Texas.
Backup goalie Carr, who signed with the Heat three weeks ago out of the University of Massachusetts Lowell, earned his first pro win in memorable fashion via a 27-save shutout of the Rampage on Friday.
In his AHL debut last Friday, Emile Poirier slipped the puck past San Antonio Rampage goalie Scott Clemmensen for his first goal as a pro.

Timberwolves win Valley sevens titleThe Robert Bateman
Timberwolves rode a stout de-fence and an MVP performance from Gavin Rowell to the first Fraser Valley senior boys rugby sevens title in school history.
The T-Wolves knocked off Queen Elizabeth 35-14 and Elgin Park 21-19 during round-rob-in play, and cruised past R.E. Mountain 40-12 in the semifi-nals. That set up a date with arch-rival Earl Marriott of Surrey in the title game, and Bateman dominated en route to a 31-5
triumph.Rowell racked up five tries
and 14 conversions throughout the tournament, while Slayter Tonnesen and Talus Swanberg notched three tries apiece. Tanner Friesen and Christian Pedersen turned in notable ef-forts on defence.
The T-Wolves advance to the provincial sevens championship April 26-27 at UBC’s Wolfson Fields, and participate in the Abbotsford high school sevens tourney May 2.
hashmarks, and he missed the net on a
breakaway later on.Beaver Valley doubled
the lead on a Taylor
Stafford goal, and ex-panded it to 5-0 in the third on tallies from
Riley Brandt, Keanan Patershuk and Fraser Stang.
Martin got Abby on the board with 2:59 left, whacking home a re-bound to spoil Clark’s shutout bid.
Clark earned tourna-ment MVP honours, though, after making 32 saves in the final.
Dallas Calvin of the Nitehawks took home the top forward prize after leading the tour-ney in scoring (six goals and eight assists in six games), and the top de-fenceman award went to Abby’s Austin Edwards.
Pilots coach Jim Cowden expressed pride in his team’s effort.
“I thought we playedextremely well,” he said.
“They (the Nitehawks)are a good team, and you’ve got to take your hat off to them. Theyplay hard, they play forkeeps, and they battle.”
The BlackfaldsWranglers claimed the bronze medal, edg-ing the Thunder Bay Northern Hawks 4-3.
Pilots owner/general manager Jack Goesonwas pleased with how the tournament was re-ceived and with the con-tributions from his smallarmy of volunteers.
“It went really well,” he said. “We got lots of good comments aboutour hospitality.”

Cards rally to earn split vs. A’sThe Abbotsford
Cardinals split a home doubleheader vs. the Okanagan Athletics on Sunday.
The A's won the opener 1-0, as pitch-er Trevor Lofstrom turned in six and one-third innings of shut-out baseball to out-du-el Abby's Alex Gibbons, who surrendered just the one run over seven innings.
In the second game of the day, the Cards
staged a rally in the top of the seventh inning to salvage a split. Trailing 2-0, they racked up four runs, highlighted by a Jae Kim single to drive in the two go-ahead runs.
The Cardinals (4-1) are off to a ter-rific start to the B.C. Premier Baseball League season, and their next home game is Thursday (7 p.m., DeLair Park) vs. the Vancouver Cannons.

VERDONK, BettyApril 10th, 2014
Alice Elizabeth Brown was born in Vancouver, BC during a war-time blackout on De-cember 11, 1941 to Mary Ross (Sue) Harvie and Claude John Angus Brown, who was serv-ing in the Royal Canadian na-vy. After release from service, “Brownie” joined Trans Moun-tain Pipeline, and the family lived in Edmonton, Edson, Stony Plain, and Jasper before settling in Abbotsford. Betty learned from these moves to love mountains with fi erce weather, close to prairies, preferably with a river running through them; and when she arrived in Abbotsford in 1959 she found Sumas Prairie, which to her was “absolute heaven”. After graduating from Ab-botsford Senior High School, she took secretarial training at Vancouver Vocational Insti-tute, then joined BC’s Depart-ment of Social Welfare and subsequently the Royal Bank. On September 7th, 1963 she married Jim Verdonk, a Sumas Prairie dairy farmer from a large Dutch family. She was advised to “never learn to milk a cow; to learn to cook, to make cheese, and to grow vegetables”. She did. When Jim moved to Mis-sion to start a panir plant, Bet-ty joined the RCMP’s Victims Services program as a volun-teer. Her enthusiasm for the Women’s Institute, Victims Services, her Sumas Prairie Wives Luncheon Club, and the wild weather of Sumas Prairie never died. She was predeceased by her husband Jim, and is sur-vived by her sister Claudia of Abbotsford, her son David of Ridgecrest Dairies of Mission; and her son Steven of Canal Farms of Abbotsford, his wife Wendy Smorenburg Verdonk, and granddaughter Katelyn Daisy Mary Verdonk. Betty’s last wish was to die surrounded by laughter and to not be in pain. The staff and volunteers of Christine Morri-son Hospice made her last wish come true and her family sends their deepest thanks. Betty asked for a special thank you to the executive committee of the HotDog Club, Janet and Jeff Bryan. In lieu of fl owers, please send a donation to the Chris-tine Morrison Hospice. A celebration of Betty’s life will be held at the Rancho, 35110 DeLair Road on Satur-day, May 3rd, 2014.
