Planned oil surge highlights tanker risksKinder Morgan Canada
announced this month that it will seek to twin its Trans Mountain Pipeline between northern Alberta and Burnaby. The twinning would mean a huge increase in the amount of crude that transits the pipeline, and in the number of oil tankers passing through local waters each year. This is the latest in a Black Press series looking at the logistics, risks, and politics involved.
Jeff NAGELBlack Press
The Everest Spirit, an oil tanker the length of two and a half football fields, nudges slowly under the Second Narrows Bridge.
In its bowels is enough crude oil to fill more than 30 Olympic swimming pools, loading it down so that it sits 13 metres deep in the water, close to the carefully prescribed maximum safe draft for the narrow, shallow channel.
The ship is one of 32 tankers that last year loaded crude from Burnaby’s Westridge terminal, the end of an 1,100-kilometre pipeline that runs from northern Alberta southwest across B.C. to the Pacific.
But Kinder Morgan, which owns the Trans Mountain Pipeline, has big plans to turn the current trickle of oil through Vancouver’s harbour into a gusher.
The company announced this spring it will seek approv-al to twin the pipeline and increase its current 300,000-barrel-per-day capacity to as
much as 850,000. Some would continue to flow to refineries in Burnaby and Washington State. But export oil bound for tankers is projected to soar from a current 80,000 barrels per day to as much as 550,000 if the project proceeds.
The number of tankers filling up in Burnaby could hit 360 in 2016, five times more than the record 69 crude tankers in 2010.
That prospect has alarmed environmentalists who worry the risk of a catastrophic spill is increasing and say Metro Vancouverites never signed on to become Alberta’s oil port.
“People are terrified about this,” said Georgia Strait Alliance executive director C h r i s t i a n n e Wilhelmson.
“If an accident happens, we live here. We’re going to lose our orcas. We’re going to lose our salmon. We’re going to lose our businesses that rely on a pristine environ-ment.
“It’s simply not worth the risk.”
The tankers move in the harbour with extensive safeguards.
The 249-metre Everest Spirit is harnessed to one tugboat in front of it and two tugs at the rear – together they have enough pulling power to keep the massive tanker on course no matter what might go wrong with its engines or steering.
Large loaded tankers must
be accompanied by three tugs from Westridge through the Second Narrows and past the Lions Gate Bridge to English Bay.
After that, tankers proceed unaccompanied southeast through the Strait of Georgia to Saturna Island. There they are met again by Vancouver Island-based tugs that accompany them through the currents of Boundary Pass and Haro Strait until they pass Race Rocks and reach the wider waters of Juan de Fuca Strait between Victoria
and Washington’s O l y m p i c Peninsula.
Agencies on both sides of the border watch for any deviation from the defined shipping lane, which largely follows the i n t e r n a t i o n a l boundary.
And a U.S. rescue tug based out of Neah
Bay can scramble if any ship loses power and drifts towards rocks or shoreline.
Many hands and eyes guide the boat on the bridge. The tankers are required to sail with two pilots – highly trained experts on local waters – in addition to the ship’s captain and naviga-tion officer. The pilots, who actually command the vessel, don’t depend on the ship’s instruments – they bring their own laptops for GPS navigation and charting.
One monitors instruments and calls out any deviations from the precision
course through the SecondNarrows, while the otheractually steers and monitorsother conditions, such aswind and current.
If one of the tugs failed,the other two – or even justone larger tug – could controlthe tanker and tow it tosafe anchorage, says PacificPilotage Authority presidentand CEO Kevin Obermeyer.
“It really is overkill,” hesaid. “But it’s overkill for agood reason.”
Other regulations alsoapply.
Tankers only move indaylight with a minimumof one mile visibility, at amaximum of six knots, andonly pass through the SecondNarrows at slack tide.
And loaded tankers havethe channel to themselves –all other ships must wait – allbut eliminating the risk ofcollision.
“The tankers are probablythe most protected speciesout there,” Obermeyer said.
Some of the rules stemfrom an incident in 1978,when the freighter JapanErica hit the Second Narrowsrailway bridge in heavy fog.Pilots train for disaster usingsimulators, but the pilotageauthority has also staged liveharbour tests to verify thattugs can indeed control anerrant tanker with an engineor rudder failure.
Unlike the single-hulledExxon Valdez, which spilledmore than 230,000 barrels offAlaska in 1989, all tankersloading here must be double-hulled.
That’s no panacea – double-hulled tankers have also

FIRE DAMAGEAT DUPLEX
An Abbotsford duplex suffered extensive fire damage Tuesday morning, and the cause has not yet been determined. AbbotsfordFire Rescue Service responded to the scene at 2552 Minter St. at about 6:30 a.m. Crews arrived to find heavy smoke coming from the unit at the rear of the structure. The lone resident had escaped from the home and was transported to hospital for treatment of smoke inhalation. Assistant Fire Chief Dave Rivett said the blaze was quickly brought under control, but the home suffered about $100,000 in damages. The incident is still under investigation.
ESCAPED BLAZEResidents of a house on Blue Jay Street in Abbotsford escaped unharmed from a fire early Thursday morning after being awakened by smoke detectors. Abbotsford Fire Rescue Service responded to the fire at about 5 a.m. When crews arrived, heavy smoke was coming from the top floor and flames could be seen from the back. Assistant Fire Chief Jeff Adams said the fact the tenants got out safely is an example of why every home should have working smoke detectors. “This alerted them at the early stages there was something wrong, and they woke up and they got out.”

Vikki HOPESAbbotsford News
A former Abbotsford teacher was sentenced to a 60-day jail term on Wednesday for what the judge referred to as a “gross lapse of judgment” in sending sexual text messages to a student.
Martin Careen will serve his sentence over a 48-hour period when he is in the Lower Mainland, so he can continue to work.
Careen, 52, is no longer permitted to teach, and has been employed as an office worker for an Alberta construc-tion company. He spends two weeks out of town and one week at home.
Justice Terence Schultes also ruled that Careen, who was convicted last July of invitation to sexual touching (sexual exploitation), will be
on probation during his time out of prison and for one year following the completion of his sentence.
A conviction for sexual exploi-tation carries a minimum 45-day jail term.
Crown counsel had recommended Careen serve nine to 12 months, while defence had suggested a sentence of 45 to 90 days.
Careen was a teacher at St. John Brebeuf Regional Secondary – a private Catholic school – when he had a text conversation with a female student, then 17, in the late evening and early morning of Jan. 27 and 28, 2009.
At first, the texts addressed an upcoming history exam and other school work, but they became sexual in nature.
In his ruling in B.C. Supreme
Court in New Westminster, Schultes said Careen’s sentence should be on the lighter end for such an offence because the texts in question were sent over a brief overnight period and were not ongoing.
He cited psychological assessments that indicat-ed Careen was at a low risk to re-offend, adding he believed the convic-tion itself had been enough of a deterrent.
“He has lost a career that has meant every-thing to him and in which he made an ongoing significant contribu-
tion,” Schultes said. Also weighing in Careen’s
favour was his “sterling char-acter,” Schultes said, referring to the 36 letters of support filed by parents, students, colleagues and his wife of more than 20 years.
However, Schultes said the offence was serious because Careen was in a position of trust at the time of the text exchange and his actions nega-tively impacted the victim. In her victim impact statement read last week during Careen’s sentencing hearing, the girl said she had been vilified by others who accused her of lying about the incident to police.
Schultes said Careen had made a “deliberate effort” to compose and send the messag-es.
“The language with which he addressed the student was deeply offensive.”
Among Careen’s conditions of his probation are that he not volunteer or work with girls under the age of 18 and that he complete any counselling recommended by his probation officer. This could include a sex offender treatment program.
CAREEN
Former teacher will serve sentence intermittently
“I have to miss out on a lot of things most kids don’t even have to think about, because of someone else’s deci-sion to go out with a gun that night,” she said.
“I miss him every single day... I don’t want anyone to have to go through what I’m going through.”
Two things about Chris Whitmee are certain: he loved his daughter, and he loved cars.
The day Lexus was born, she was given the name Chanelle. As Chris held the day-old child, while he was looking out the hospi-tal window, a Lexus pulled up.
That moment, her name was changed forever.
Three years ago, Chris Whitmee walked into the washroom at a club in Cloverdale followed by a gangster with a gun.
“It’s hard, because I know if he wasn’t
there that night he would probably still be with us,” Lexus said. “It’s hard to think that something could have changed my whole life.”
Heather Brecht said her daughter wakes up in the morning and carries on like Chris is still here. One of the toughest things she had to do was tell Lexus that death is final.
Police have several persons of interest in the case, but are looking for anyone with information, even if they believe it to be insignificant, to come forward.
Anyone with information is asked to call the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team tipline at 1-877-551-IHIT (4448) or by email at [email protected]. To remain anonymous,
call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 or leave a tip on solvecrime.ca.

Abbotsford Police were involved in the arrest of a full-patch member of the Hells Angels on Wednesday morning in Aldergrove.
Const. Ian MacDonald said the department’s drug enforcement unit executed a search warrant at about 7 a.m. in the 27000 block of 28 A Avenue. They seized almost one kilogram of cocaine and $26,000 in cash, stashed in dresser drawers.
MacDonald said the street value of the drugs is estimated at $45,000.
A 50-year-old man was arrested and faces charges of possession for the purposes of trafficking. He cannot be named until charges are laid.
Assisting in the search were members of the Abbotsford Police’s gang suppression unit, the Combined Forces Special Enforcement Unit’s outlaw motorcycle gang unit, and the Lower Mainland Emergency Response Team.
MacDonald said the man is a member of the White Rock chapter of the Hells Angels, and Abbotsford Police began investigating him due to his activities in the community, although he doesn’t reside here.
“The mandate of our gang suppression unit and drug unit are to deal with people who live in Abbotsford and deal in gangs and drugs, or who ply their trade in Abbotsford,” he said.
MacDonald said although the man has had “negative police interaction” in the past, he was not known for any other recent criminal activity.
The White Rock chapter of the Hells Angels has links to the fatal shooting of Jonathan Bacon of Abbotsford last summer in Kelowna.
Member Larry Amero was with Bacon at the time and was seriously injured in the incident, according to media reports.

Million-barrel tankers may be comingbreached and spilled – but it’s another improvement shipping defenders point to as evidence the times have changed.
Indeed, through most of B.C.’s century-long history of safely moving oil on water, tankers did not have the benefit of tugs, pilots or modern navigational aids like GPS.
That trend is borne out in worldwide tanker accident statis-tics, which show spills in the 2000s released about a quarter as much oil as they did in the two previous decades and about one twelfth as much as the 1970s.
“I would say it’s extremely safe,” Obermeyer said. “Can I say we would never have an accident? No, I can’t say that.”
BIGGER, DEEPER
So far, the largest tankers loading at Westridge are Afraxmax class tankers like the Everest Spirit, which have a maximum capacity of 650,000 barrels.
In practice, they have been loaded to no more than 80 per cent full due to the draft limit – how deep they can sit in the water without coming too close to the seabed in the Second Narrows.
Previously, tankers were allowed to load to 12.5 metres, but in 2010 the Pacific Pilotage Authority increased the draft limit to 13.5 metres.
Ships haven’t yet loaded to that full depth – they’ve held back at around 13 metres to date – but they’re expected to start going all the way later this spring,
allowing more oil to be carried.
Still bigger ships may come if Kinder Morgan twins the pipeline. The company has indicated it may seek permission to use giant Suezmax tankers that carry up to one million barrels – half again as much as Aframax tankers.
The Second Narrows would have to be dredged deeper to accommodate them and shipping authori-ties say all the other tanker safety require-ments would have to be reviewed and possibly
strengthened.Switching to the
bigger capacity of Suezmax would be more efficient, cutting a shipper’s cost by about $1.50 a barrel.
A former tanker captain himself, Leclerc says there are plenty of waterways in the world that are narrower but heavily used by tankers.
Gibraltar sees more tankers each day than the Second Narrows does in a year, he said.
“What we have here is really the leading edge in terms of safety
and security,” he said.
BEYOND THE HARBOUR
There are other potential danger points along the tanker route.
A Pacific States/B.C. Oil Spill Task Force report in 2011 said there are risks associ-ated with anchorages in the Gulf Islands where tankers might hole up during a storm. It notes a bulk carrier in 2009 dragged anchor in high winds and was blown onto a rocky reef near Mayne
Island.“No oil was spilled,
but the risk was high,” it said.
Capital Regional District director Mike Hicks argues there’s a serious risk of a collision at the western entrance to Juan de Fuca Strait, where ships converge in a narrower lane and local pilots are not required. He
says any spill there would be disastrous to Swiftsure Bank, an area rich in sea life.
The task force report says much has been done to reduce oil spill risks by authorities on both sides of the border.
But it says more is still required to improve interna-tional coordination of spill responses.
B.C. Chamber ofCommerce presidentJohn Winter saidhe’s seen nothing yetto justify opposingKinder Morgan’splan for expanded oilexports.
“The track recordis excellent,” he said.“Most of the peopleopposed to it neverknew there wastanker traffic in thefirst place.”

QUESTION OF THE WEEK
LAST WEEK, WE ASKED:
Do you agree with council’s decision to give Ledgeview Golf Course $115,000 in assistance?
Is five and a half years in prison a just sentence in Brent
Parent’s road rage trial?
To answer, go to abbynews.com
186 RESPONDED:
Strange artifacts linger in the lexicon
While chatting with someone the other day, I used the expression, “The world is your oyster.”
I stopped and thought: What the heck does that mean?
For that matter, why would anyone compare a shellfi sh to being in control of one’s destiny?
Why not a turnip, or a can of sliced peaches?
I mean, is “The world is your Dunge-ness crab” any less ridiculous than oysters?
Who comes up with this stuff? Maybe an oyster farmer?
Is he the same guy who coined “happy as a clam?” How could he tell?
Buried in wet sand your entire exis-tence... what’s happy about that?
As you can tell, it got me to thinking about other silly phrases that have made their way into the English lan-
guage.Some of them have faded away, but I
still hear “once in a blue moon.”Now I don’t know about you, but I’ve
never seen a blue moon. Not ever. In fact, I don’t think that’s even possible. So how can there be a “once” if there’s no such thing?
Wouldn’t that be “never in a blue moon?”
No less confusing is “over the moon.” Now, I understand being delighted, or ecstatic, but how that relates to a voyage into space just beats me. And actually, that should be around the moon, as any astronaut who has done so can tell you.
More nonsensical though is “pie in the sky,” which is used to describe unre-alistic thinking. Apparently, it hasn’t occurred to anyone that the expression itself is pretty out there...
“Burning the midnight oil” is another ancient saying that still crops up in conversation.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe the invention of the electric light bulb and electrical power grids pretty much replaced oil lamps about oh, a century ago, give or take a few decades.
But there’s that old expression, still
being used to express working late.Same with “fi ghting hammer and
tongs.”Violent confrontation is still pretty
much in vogue these days, but with hammer and tongs? Aren’t those black-smithing tools? Who do you know who even has a pair of tongs, other than per-haps the stainless steel kitchen version?
Back off, Jack, or you’ll feel the bite of my rubberized vegetable servers!
Oooh, there’s a threat!“Raining cats and dogs” is still oft
heard, and it’s just plain weird.Somehow, somewhere, someone
decided to equate falling droplets of water with plummeting pets.
Clearly, this person was drunk as a
skunk.And where skunks get liquor, I can’t
imagine. Wouldn’t they be asked for ID?
You’d think someone else would haveimmediately challenged the cat/dog precipitation comparison.
“Dude, you’re out of your mind. Shutup. It’s just raining really hard, OK?”
But no, apparently no one thought to question the insanity of this remark. We just continued to parrot it to this day.
And speaking of days, the more con-temporary expression “at the end of the day,” makes me crazy.
What does that actually mean?Nothing, really, but it’s absolutely
ubiquitous.Corporate policies, projects, objec-
tives and all sorts of miscellaneous proclamations and observations are based upon this vague point in the Earth’s rotational cycle.
At the end of the day, some day soon, I’d like to see this phrase go away. All day, every day.
In the meantime, I’ll just keep on keeping on.
If you know what I mean.
YES: 8% NO: 92%

I live in the neighbourhood, and I very much want the fi rst three fl oors to be commercial. Having access to something as simple as a coffee shop that’s walk-ing distance from my home is extremely desirable.
Any opportunity to walk in this neighbourhood instead of having to battle traffi c up to the commer-cial corridor of South Fraser Way is great with me!

Abbotsford is growing. It’s a city, not “a city in the country.” People need to quit this half measures bull. We have all the growing pains of a town turning into
a city and we are experiencing an accelerated rate of growth. See the big picture here. We can’t stay
small forever, so let’s stop pretending and embrace the future of our city. Abbotsford has been living in
denial of itself for well over a decade.Ricky McBride
I just want this now so that all those lovely trees weren’t cut down for nothing.

Save downtown library for clubsAn open letter to Mayor Bruce
Banman and the Abbotsford Council.
We have been having some conversations with the Abbotsford Arts Council about the possibility of sharing the Abbotsford downtown library building among possibly three different clubs.
The building has heritage value, and many fond memories for people who made so much use of that library.
We ask that you not tear it down, because this building, no longer needed by the Fraser Valley Regional Library, would be a really great place for possi-bly three (or even more) clubs to find a home.
The Rock and Gem Club is grateful to be able to meet at the
Kariton House, but at times the space is not quite adequate.
More importantly, we would like to have a locked area where the cutting, grinding and polish-ing equipment could be housed, as well as serving as a meeting room for up to some 50 people.
The club has many skilled crafts people who would be happy to pass on their skills to both young and old in our community.
Our members will teach jewelry making, cabochons, silversmith-ing and mineral education.
Currently we do not have a clubhouse adequate for these activities.
So pleas add our voice to the other groups who ask that you keep the library for the use of local clubs.

Admiring green bus fleetThe city of Windsor, Ont. is becoming the
first city in North America to put long-range, all-electric transit buses on its roads.
Congratulations are owed to them for doing this. It’s a great thing to see it happening.
However, I would have thought that an eco-friendly transit first like this would have happened right here in B.C.
In B.C., all-electric buses would be powered almost exclusively by electricity from clean, renewable hydro and wind sources.
Not so in Ontario, where they’re struggling to
wean themselves off coal-fired electricity.Don’t get me wrong – when cleaner natural
gas buses replaced many of the dirty diesel buses on our roads a number of years ago, it was a welcome step in the direction of improv-ing our air quality and reducing pollution.
But now that long-range, all-electric buses (free from overhead trolley wires) are becom-ing a reality, wouldn’t they be a great addition to B.C.’s transit bus fleet?

Council sees U-District visionCouncil has reviewed its vision for its the
University District (U-District) surrounding the University of the Fraser Valley.
McCallum, King and McKenzie Roads are the focus of the development plan. Council was presented Monday night with numerous “before” photos and “after” artist conceptions, which will be used to market the region to developers.
Urbanics Consultants were retained to provide a market analysis for the project and have given a projection of the amount of new commer-cial, institutional, applied research/business park and residential development that could be expected in the area over the next 30 years.
“This strategic location will provide substan-tial opportunities for commercial development, residential development, employment and university expansion in the future,” said Mayor Bruce Banman in a press release. “It’s important that we put plans in place now so that develop-ment in the U District aligns with the strategic vision of the area.”
“Do we have a handle on the infrastructure that’s gong to be needed to service all of this?” asked Coun. Henry Braun, noting that developers should pay for those services – not taxpayers.
Expensive leakIn other council news, Kamaljit Kaur appeared
before council asking that the city forgive a $29,000 water bill, accumulated after her Montrose Avenue industrial property flooded in
November and December.City policy is to not adjust bills for properties
that are not occupied by the owner.City staff noted the leak was losing water
at a rate of 45 gallons per minute. City crewseventually discovered the problem, and shut offwater to the vacant building.
Councillors deferred the matter, to answerquestions about her communications with staffabout the November bill, and whether she shouldhave been able to spot the leak during a visit tothe property – as staff did. Kaur said she visitedthe building, which has been vacant for fivemonths and is up for sale, on a weekly basis.
Night haulingCouncil addressed night hauling on Lower
Sumas Mountain Road, from the four quarrieson the gravel truck route.
“It worked fairly well last year, and we did notget any complaints,” noted manager of engine-ering Jim Gordon, adding that the quarries ontop of the mountain will not be used at night.
Council gave him the authority to approvenight hauling requests. This was done becausein the past council approval was required, couldtake two or three weeks, and Sumas Mountainaggregate producers were not able to respondto Ministry of Transportation requests fornight hauling in a timely manner. They lostbusiness opportunities created by the GatewayProject.

National honour for APD officersTwo Abbotsford Police officers were
recently honoured in Ottawa with the Order of Merit of the Police Forces.
Deputy Chief Rick Lucy and Sgt. Mike Novakowski were among officers across Canada who received the award from Gov.-Gen. David Johnston in recognition of their contributions to policing and the community.
Lucy, a 29-year veteran of the Abbotsford Police Department (APD), played a vital role in the formation of the Municipal Integrated Emergency Response Team, which saw four partner agencies combine resources to combat crime.
He also established a property crime reduction unit, oversaw the creation of the gang suppression unit, and introduced CompStat (computer statistics) and crime analysis to the APD.
Lucy has been involved in community activities as a director for the board of Special Olympics BC, provincial director and current chair of the BC Law Enforcement Torch Run, and an executive member of the Abbotsford Youth Commission.
Novakowski, a 22-year veteran of the APD, created the “In Service: 10-8” newsletter 11 years ago to help inform officers of the constantly evolving areas of case law and legal rulings.
He is also known for his tireless work in anti-gang initiatives through a series of posters, videos, and school presentations. The “Operation” series includes Tarnish, Impact, Veritas, Lodestar, Reclamation and Acorn.
The posters and videos have been viewed by thousands and have been used by police and other agencies across North America.

Mariners sink T-Wolves in Fraser Valley final
Dan KINVIGAbbotsford News
One of B.C.’s great high school rugby rivalries recorded another hard-hitting chapter on Thursday, as the Earl Marriott Mariners edged the Robert Bateman Timberwolves 7-0 in the Fraser Valley AAA boys title game.
The South Surrey-based Mariners broke through for the lone points of the game late in the first half, as Ian McMaster got in for a try and Quentin Wilms booted the convert.
The T-Wolves had their chances, particu-larly in the first half when they ventured deep into Marriott ter-ritory on several occa-sions, but they couldn’t push the ball across.
“Both teams played exceptionally well,” Bateman coach Dave Chambers said. “You can’t get any closer than this. It was a tre-mendous game.”
This group of Bateman and Marriott seniors have been bat-tling for Fraser Valley
supremacy for quite some time. Two years ago, the Mariners edged the T-Wolves in overtime of the Valley Grade 10 final, and the teams split their regular-season games this year.
The intensity of Thursday’s game reached a boiling point in the second half with a minor melee in front of the Bateman bench, but it amounted
to nothing more than pushing and shoving.
“It’s great to be a part of,” Chambers said of the rivalry. “We’ve got two quality programs, and their coaching staff has the same philosophy as ours. We just get stuck into each other on the field, and it’s really good.”
In earlier action, the Yale Lions clinched the Valley bronze medal in dominating fashion,
blasting Semiahmoo59-22. Spencer Millerled the scoring paradewith a pair of tries,while Akash Deokicked seven converts.
The Lions are on a five-game win streak, andcoach Doug Primrosefeels his youthful Grade11-laden squad has a lotof momentum headinginto the provincials.
“We’re hoping topeak at the right time,”he said.
The Bateman Timberwolves had a tough time breaking through the Marriottdefence in the Fraser Valley championship game on Thursday.

Abbotsford - Divorce is rarely easy and often means a lot of dif cult decisions. One of the most important decisions is what to do about the house.
In the midst of the heavy emotional and nancial turmoil, what you need most is some non-emotion-al, straightforward, speci c information and an-swers. Once you know how a divorce affects your home, your mortgage and taxes, critical decisions are easier. Neutral, third party information can help you make logical, rather than emotional, decisions.
Probably the rst decision is whether you want to continue living in the house. Will the familiar surroundings bring you comfort and emotional security, or unpleasant memories? Do you want to minimize change by staying where you are, or sell your home and move to a new place that offers a new start? Only you can answer those questions, but there will almost certainly be some nancial
repercussions to your decision process. What can you afford? Can you manage the old house on your new budget? Is re nancing possible? Or is it better to sell and buy? How much house can you buy on your new budget? To help you know what questions you should ask and how to arrive at the right answer for your speci c situation, a FREE special report has been prepared by industry experts entitled “Divorce: What You Need to Know About Your House, Your Mortgage and Taxes”.
To order a FREE Special Report, visit www.CostlyHousingMistakes.com or to hear a brief recorded message about how to order your FREE copy of this report, call toll-free 1-800-478-1805 and enter 1009.

Hadwin, Canucks join forcesAbbotsford golfer
Adam Hadwin has landed a contract with the Vancouver Canucks.
To be clear, it’s not to play hockey. Rather, Hadwin has struck a promotional partner-ship with the local NHL team which will see the 24-year-old golfer display the Canucks logo on his apparel and participate in Canucks for Kids Fund chari-table events where his schedule allows.
“Adam embodies a number of quali-ties we value at our organization, from his competitive drive, to his commitment to professional success, to his connection to
British Columbia,” Canucks chief operat-ing officer Victor de Bonis stated in a press release. “Adam’s partnership with the Canucks extends into the community realm, allowing us to further support local charities in innovative ways.”
Hadwin staged a breakthrough season in 2011, when he appeared in and made the cut in five PGA Tour events – U.S. Open, RBC Canadian Open, Frys.com Open, McGladrey Classic and the Greenbrier Classic – and earned $440,752.
His performance at the Canadian Open at Vancouver’s Shaughnessy Golf
and Country Club captured the attention of a nation of golf fans – he was in contention for the title, before finishing fourth.
Hadwin is a regular on the Nationwide Tour this season, where he’s made the cut in six of eight events thus far and has earned $44,838.
“It is a great honour to partner with my favourite profes-sional sports team, the Vancouver Canucks,” Hadwin said. “This is a very exciting time in my professional golf career and I look forward to sharing it with the Canucks organization and their fans everywhere.”

Funding research key to helpfuture, children, grandchildren
Over the years, the Strelaeff’s have lost family members to cancer, and the full magnitude of the disease became very dear to them when Mona Strelaeff was di-agnosed at age 48 with breast cancer.
“At fi rst the diagnosis was quite posi-tive; the growth in my breast was small. But four months into my chemotherapy, I felt ill and ended up in the hospital. It had metastasized to my lungs.”
Mona was prescribed a new aggressive treatment and four months in she had an-other CT scan that revealed the cancer had disappeared.
“I had been given my life back,” says Mona, “It was a year of intense therapy, radiation, chemotherapy, surgery—the whole nine yards. That was nine years ago. Today I feel absolutely excellent.”
The experience led Mona and her hus-band to consider a planned gift in sup-port of future cancer research. She says,
“We’ve been supporting the BC Cancer Foundation for 10 years now and will be for the rest of our days because we made sure that our estate plans include a be-quest to the BC Cancer Foundation.”
Mona’s biggest concern is funding re-search because she believes it’s the key to help the future, her children and her grandchildren.
“It means so much because this is a legacy we leave behind. To give and help others is something I’ve tried to teach my family and I know it will benefi t them and everyone else,” she says.
BC Cancer Foundation staff are always available to answer your questions and provide information about including a gift in your will.
Evelyn McKenzie was known to her children as a ‘fun mom’ – warm, loving, kind and jovial – a good refl ection of the family she herself was raised in. Evelyn and her husband Ken, moved to Cloverdale from Saskatchewan, and Evelyn continued her teaching career that had been birthed in a one room prairie school.
Both she and Ken valued education and saw this as a priority for each of their own children. They believed in do-ing whatever it took to help their children gain an education, since education is the key to having a means of fi nancial sup-port and independence.
Her years as a teacher were highlight-ed with her special drawings created as teaching aids – always something unique for days such as Valentine’s, Thanksgiv-ing and Christmas. Evelyn made sure that each and every child she taught felt special, and in later years former stu-dents were known to acknowledge her with appreciation… “Mrs. McKenzie?
Do you remember me – you were my Grade 1 teacher!”
As one of life’s natural givers, Eve-lyn’s legacy now gives to the students of UFV’s Teacher Education Program. Two awards help students reach their goals as a teacher, by recognizing both gift-ed teaching ability, and fi nancial need. Daughters Bonnie, Heather, and Jean are thrilled that these awards will make a positive and encouraging difference in the lives of students enrolled in the Teacher Education Program.
Evelyn’s legacy was established through life insurance policies. Life in-surance is a simple way in which to plan one’s giving, and various options such as designating the university as owner and benefi ciary, can save taxes today, during one’s life and upon passing. Ex-isting or new insurance policies may be donated for relatively little or no cash outlay, yet the impact upon student’s lives (and consequently the communi-ties they serve) can be signifi cant.

Not only was Jordyn able to get the care that she needed, but our family received support as well, which helped us take better care of Jordyn and enjoy the time we had with her.

Richard and Helen Randle retired to live in Abbotsford in the late 90s after years of crisscrossing the country.
Richard served in the Armed Forces for 35 years taking them to every province in the country except PEI and Newfoundland and also two tours with NATO – one in Germany and one with the UN in Gaza.
Helen’s teaching took her from one room classrooms in rural communities to city classrooms in Kingston, Winnipeg, Ottawa and two years in West Germany where she met and married Richard in 1957.
After retiring from the Armed Forces, Richard worked as a fi nancial services offi cer with the DFO. Abbotsford became home for Helen and Richard where they shared their love of classical music were able to put down roots in one place.
When they were working with their In-vestment Advisor Randy Hurd, CIBC Wood Gundy, in 1999, they includes plans to support the causes that mattered most to them. The path they chose to realize their goal was to purchase a term insur-ance policy that also included an invest-ment component and fund it with money that CRA required they take out of their
RIFF account. They were fortunate that this was money they didn’t actually need to support them.
They established the Richard and Hel-en Randle Endowment Fund with the Abbotsford Community Foundation and arranged that their fund would be the ben-efi ciary of the proceeds from their insur-ance. The premium payments of $25,000 earned them a tax receipt for that amount annually which they could use to offset in-come. When making their plans they de-cided that the income from their endow-ment fund would be used to support the Abbotsford Symphony, Abbotsford Hos-pital, Fraser Valley Regional Library and to fund programs and facilities benefi ting Seniors.
In 2010, after the death of her husband, Helen moved to a small town near Ottawa and today, at the age of 87, she contin-ues to be active as a volunteer teaching Grade 3 students two mornings a week.
As retirees who used Senior’s and hos-pital services, they expressed their grati-tude by including them as recipients of some of the income their fund will gener-ate every year, in perpetuity. What pleased them both about their decision to support
their adopted community of Abbotsford, using insurance, Hurd said, was that by investing a relatively small amount after the tax credit is taken into account, they were able to create a signifi cant endow-ment that will support the causes they care about the most in Abbotsford.

e.Rising river levels resulting from warmer weather and melting snow have triggered the hatching of mosquito larvae and the beginning of the Fraser Valley Regional District’s (FVRD) nuisance mosquito control season.
The FVRD has been monitoring, mapping, and treating new and known mosquito development sites. Sites are treated with a non-toxic bacterial larvicide that specifically targets the mosquito in its larval stage before it can fly. These efforts will continue throughout the mosquito season.
Residents are reminded to eliminate sources of standing water around their properties from things like old tires or clogged gutters as these can become potential mosquito breeding habitat. For tips on how to limit mosquito bites please visit www.fvrd.bc.ca. Health Related Questions?

It is with deep sadness and heavy hearts that the family of Bridie Howarth announce her passing at 81 years. Mom was born in Dunrea, Manitoba, the oldest of 10 children with whom she enjoyed farm life. Feeding livestock, gardening, housekeeping, childcare and making meals kept her and her sisters busy and would serve her well as she became a wife and mother herself after meeting and marrying Dad in August 1949. Six girls and one boy would come along to complete the family. Mom loved baking, canning, sewing and dancing in her younger years and bowling, watching the Canucks and Blue Jays games, bookkeeping, travel-ling and family gatherings in her later years. She was a founding member of the Fraternal Order of Eagles in Abbotsford, holding every position but one including becoming Provincial Madam President. Being part of the FOE brought her much joy as she helped give to the community, attended meetings and conferences and made many friends locally and within many others chapters. Pre- deceased by her husband, Norman, three siblings and grandson, Bryce, she is sur-vived by her children, Sharon (Doug) Enns, Doug (Elaine) Howarth, Brenda Ritchie, Debra (Calvin) Vanderveen, Kathleen (Ray) Van Staalduinen, Janice Howarth (Ken), Denise (Len) Smit, 11 grandchildren, 10 great grandchildren, 6 siblings, and many friends. We will all miss her beautiful smile, her joy of life and the next adven-ture, her charming, sweet disposition and her encour-agement, but most of all, her love. As her kids we have all lost our greatest cheerleader. We love you Mom and are glad your suffering is over. Thank you so much to all the nurses, care aids doctors and staff who cared for mom and made her time at Abbotsford Regional Hospital as com-fortable as possible. She ap-preciated you all so much and so do we. A Memorial Service will be held Wednesday, May 23, 1:00 PM at Henderson’s Fraser Valley Funeral Home, 34537 Marshall Road with a luncheon to follow at the Fraternal Order of Eagles Hall, 33868 Essendene Avenue. In lieu of fl owers, donations to the ALS Society would be appreciated.Tributes and condolences may be left at:www.hendersonsabbotsfordfunerals.com
