From a proposed 31-home subdivision to a gravel pit. That’s the new direction Dean Hodgson is taking with his 80-acre parcel of land on Thomas Avenue and Cardinal Street in Steelhead.
Hodgson’s name is on the application put forward by H&H Contraction to the province’s Ministry of En-ergy, Mines and Natural Gas to convert the property into a sand and gravel pit.
“Our subdivision was al-ways plan A,” said Hodgson. “Gravel mining is one of our back up plans. Although at this time we have no firm plans to extract or transport gravel, we now need to seriously consider our other options.”
Mayor Ted Adlem said he’s not surprised by the applica-tion because Hodgson had indicated that a gravel and sand pit was an option for the property.

Bill Fletcher is the new super-intendent for the Mission Public School District.
Fletcher’s appointment took ef-fect on Jan. 24, about six months after working as the interim super-intendent.
Fletcher began his career in edu-cation in Mission in 1976 and has worked at numerous schools, such
as Dewdney, Ferndale and Silver-dale elementary schools. He taught at Cherry Hill from 1977 to 1980 and moved into an administrative role in 1980 as principal at Deroche.
Since then, Fletcher has worked in the administration department in both elementary and high schools.
While Fletcher served as acting superintendent, he continued to be
district principal of the Aboriginal Program.
“While maintaining this double role, Mr. Fletcher has initiated an examination of the district’s fiscal management, opened discussions on the formation of a traditional elementary school and started a dialogue about restructuring the district’s high school configura-
tion,” said Edie Heinrichs, Mission Public Schools board chair.
“The board is very pleased with Mr. Fletcher’s strong advocacy for positive change.”
Randy Huth remains the act-ing assistant superintendent, until further restructuring changes take place, likely later this week. Huth is also in charge of student services.
Fletcher named new MPSD
superintendent
District of Mission gets from the site has to be used to repair roads.
Cindy Diamond, co-chair-woman of the Steelhead Com-munity Association (SCA) said they were caught off guard when they learned of the application. She said SCA has attempted to get a hold of the plans for the mine from both the Mission li-brary, where they are supposed to
be filed for public viewing, and from Hodgson. She said they’ve had no luck with either.
“We really can’t speak on the plans one way or another until we’ve had a look at them,” said Diamond.
However, she said considering the community’s lack of appetite for a subdivision on the property, she doubts the idea for a gravel pit will be welcomed.
The 80-acre site is surrounded by rural residential properties and Diamond questions if it’s the
right place for a mining opera-tion.
Diamond is encouraging ev-eryone in the Steelhead com-munity to make their opinions known to government.
As part of the approval process, the ministry allows 30 days for anyone to submit their thoughts on the proposal.
They must either make writ-ten or e-mailed submissions to Al Hoffman, the chief inspector for the province, at [email protected].

More than 40 people crowded down-town streets Saturday, taking part in the first ever Cash Mob event in Mission.
With $20 in hand, the group met at the Olde Raverty Mall on First Avenue and filed into Murdoch’s Book Shoppe to spend their cash.
The idea of a cash mob is based on the flash mob concept, only this pro-motes socializing and supporting local businesses, explained Ronda Cush-nie, executive director for the Mis-sion Downtown Business Association, which organized the event. “Down-
town gets mobbed in a good way.”After the shopping trip, the crowd
enjoyed a cup of coffee and a treat at The Sweet Spot across the street.
“It’s a great way to meet people and make connections,” said Cushine, not-ing many people came alone for the experience. “There was trepidation at first, but in the end, everybody left as friends.”
The DBA will be coordinating a cash mob every month to promote shopping downtown. The stores visited will only be revealed on event day. The next cash mob is scheduled for Feb. 16. The meeting location is the walkway by Magnolia’s on First Avenue.

Mission Arts Council is wrapping up its 40th year with a celebration at the Clarke Theatre on Feb. 9.
It’ll be like a year re-view, said MAC execu-tive director Nancy Ar-cand about the event.
Highlights from the 40th year include the pirate-themed Children’s Festival, large Christ-mas Craft Market and the inaugural Halloween Haunted Mansion.
Mission Youth Arts Council (MYAC) was also created last year to encourage young artists to get involved and fol-low their creativity. The young artists played a key role in organizing the Haunted Mansion from making props to performing arts.
MAC was incorpo-rated in February 1972 and had in office inside the Leisure Centre before moving into its current location on First Avenue in 2000, said Arcand.
Since taking over the house, the group has es-tablished a gallery, which showcases numerous art-ists throughout the year, and a tea room to help raise some funds.
The Celebration of the Arts will begin at 6:30 p.m. and entertainment will start at 7 p.m. Back Door Slam, Alex Rake and the Leaves, Open-ing Nite Theatre, Trent Tinney, Serenata Sing-ers, Tangerine, Anwynn Studio and Cloggers and Doris Paterson are all scheduled to perform. MYAC is also organiz-ing a poetry slam.
There will also be a si-lent auction showcasing the arts, static displays and demonstrations by artists. In the cafeteria, there will be appies and wine tastings.
Zombies and pirates will be roaming around to promote the Children’s Festival and the Haunted House, added Arcand.
“We’re not just about flowers and trees.”
Tickets to the event are $20 for MAC members, and $25 for non-mem-bers. For more informa-tion, or to purchase tick-ets, call 604-826-0029 or e-mail [email protected].

The Mission Record Thursday, January 31, 2013 7
BY TIM FITZGERALDMission Record
As the debate around the production and use of medical marijuana con-tinues to smoulder across Canadian communities, the District of Mission is making a plea to the federal government to extinguish the growing number of grow-ops that are taking hold inside its borders.
Mayor Ted Adlem said he’s hoping a letter sent to federal Health Min-ister Leona Aglukkaq will put pressure on the government to live up
to its ob-l iga t ions to moni-tor and c o n t r o l m e d i c a l marijuana grow ops. The letter
was published in the Jan. 17, 2013 edition of the Mission Record. In the correspondence, Adlem points out there are an “exceptionally high number” of personal-use and designated produc-tion licences for medical marijuana within Mis-sion.
“The federal legis-lation suggested they would be doing inspec-tions and they have one inspector for Western Canada,” said the mayor to council last Monday night. “What we’re ex-pecting is that they hire a few more inspectors and actually do their job and inspect.”
He said the lack of in-spections makes a mock-ery of the government’s approach on the issue and causes safety risks to neighbourhoods housing the grow-ops.
As the current legisla-tion stands, patients can apply to Health Canada to take part in the Marijuana Medical Access Program. If accepted, patients can then purchase their pot from a government pro-ducer or grow at home.
However, new regula-tions set in place by Ag-lukkaq in mid-December have changed the guide-lines. Patients will no longer apply to Health Canada for medical mar-ijuana, and home pro-duction is being phased out. Marijuana produc-tion will be handed over to private producers.
Under the new rules, only facilities that meet
“strict security require-ments” will be able to produce marijuana for medical purposes, says the Health Canada web-site. It’s hoping this will make it easier for mu-nicipalities to pass zon-ing bylaws forcing the production outside of residential areas.
The new plans are set to be in place by the end of March 2014.
Adlem said until the federal government gets serious about the issue, changing the legislation will have little effect on what’s happening now.
Adlem added as far as the district is concerned, staff will monitor the commercial bylaws to ensure any grow-ops that set up in Mission will do so under strict guidelines.
District wants feds to inspect marijuana grow ops
to its ob-l iga t ions to moni-tor and c o n t r o l m e d i c a l marijuana grow ops. Adlem

Mission athletes receive awards
Two local athletes received top honours this past week.
Mission basketball star Teresa Gabriele, who most recently played in the 2012 Summer Olympics in London, will be inducted into the Basketball BC Hall of Fame on April 20.
Gabriele, a Heritage Park graduate, was part of Canada’s national team for 13 years, representing her country at two Olympics and at the World Championships and Pan Am Games. She played profes-sionally in Europe from 2002-2004.
Gabriele is one of six inductees this year.“This years remarkable group of induct-
eers represent not only individuals who have contributed significantly to our sport in B.C., but who also hold an impressive list of inter-national and Olympic achievements,” said Basketball BC president Diana Chan.
• Swimmer Brent Hayden, who will also be inducted in the BC Hall of Fame later this year, received the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee medal on Jan. 25 in Vancouver.
He competed in three Summer Olympics and returned with a bronze medal from London in 2012.
Hayden retired after the London Olym-pics, and is currently the record holder in the 50 metre, 100 metre and 200 metre freestyle events.
Geronimo Stilton greets two-year-old Kormac this past weekend at the Riot of Reading Family Literacy fair at Mission Central elementary school. Children also had the opportunity to meet Clifford the Big Red Dog and Great White Shark, and have their faces painted while enjoying stories. BOB FRIESEN PHOTO

12 The Mission Record Thursday, January 31, 2013
Like a bad reality show about a dysfunctional family, B.C. School
Wars has lurched to life again for the 2013 election.
Coming soon to bill-boards and buses across the province: staged pictures of sad-faced kids crammed into dirty classrooms by a heart-less government.
It doesn’t even matter which government. This rit-ual combat went on through Social Credit and NDP gov-ernments too.
Premier Christy Clark opened the new season with her promised pitch to restruc-ture bargaining. It suggested splitting up bargaining into traditional wage and benefit talks, and a separate table and fund for classroom size and support.
Cast in her familiar role of the sullen, rebellious teen-ager, BCTF president Susan Lambert staged a news con-ference to distort and mock the government’s offer.
A 10-year deal if we give up bargaining wages and classroom conditions? “Lu-dicrous.”
What’s ludicrous is her characterization of a formula to link teacher pay to nurses,
post-secondary faculty and other government workers. Nurses are renowned for get-ting raises when no one else does, so this should be an opportunity for these power-ful unions to co-ordinate.
But the BCTF can’t get along with other unions any more than it can negotiate with any discern-ible competence.
Lambert falsely claimed there was no consultation on the proposal. This reminded me how she low-balled the costs of her union’s demands by hun-dreds of millions during what passed for negotiations in last year’s strike season.
Behind the scenes, the BCTF executive and the school district bargaining agent had just settled on a mutual costing model. What this means is the school dis-tricts, which have to make payroll and balance budgets, have convinced the BCTF to stop misrepresenting costs. I’ll believe that when I see it.
Before Education Minister
Don McRae had even spo-ken, BCTF vice-president Glen Hansman was growling his reply on Twitter: See you in court. That message pre-sumably also goes for pre-mier-in-waiting Adrian Dix, unless he replaces the hated B.C. Liberals in May, then quickly kneels before the
BCTF and extends the key to the pro-vincial treasury.
Two generations of British Colum-bians have been bullied by this bad drama, since Bill Vander Zalm de-cided an industrial union bargaining structure was just the ticket for public schools.
Students are taught by example, if not by blatant propaganda in
classrooms, that all problems are solved by demanding more money from the gov-ernment. After this condi-tioning, older students are sometimes pressed into ser-vice as union pickets.
There’s your Social Jus-tice class, kids. Sorry about those sports teams and field
trips, but we need those as bargaining chips to get more paid leave time.
To state the obvious, Clark and McRae staged this as a pre-election event to frame the issue. They knew their effort would be greeted as a declaration of war.
The main reason the BCTF agreed to a contract exten-sion with a wage freeze last year? It wasn’t the blindingly obvious fact that every other public sector union had al-ready taken two zeroes. It was strictly tactics.
The delay sets up the latest rematch of these old war-riors in the spring election. The plan is to get the dreaded B.C. Liberals out and then start working over the weaker, more union-dependent NDP.
That’s who caved in earlier and gave the BCTF broad control over staffing levels, the proverbial key to the treasury.
Along with basic math and economics, a point the BCTF seems unable to grasp is that its strategy is self-defeating. Those sad kids are making more and more parents seek a better deal.
Share your ideas at town hall meetingsWe often complain about governnents and the
way they are running our lives. Whether it’s over the dinner table or at a party, political debates often get heated and we groan about how our daily lives are impacted.
Municipal governments and the decisions local councils make affect us every day, from the new shopping centre to a condensed housing develop-ment in a neighbourhood.
Maybe you are worried about safety in the com-munity, or that there aren’t enough trails and parks to enjoy. Maybe you have ideas on how to im-prove Mission.
Who do you talk to and how do you get politi-cians to listen?
Mission council is making it easy for residents in this community to be heard. There are three town hall meetings being planned and no agenda.
This is your opportunity to tell the government what you think and discuss your concerns/sugges-tions.
Mark your calendars. The meetings will be on April 25, Sept. 12 and Dec. 12 at municipal hall. All meetings will begin at 7 p.m.
Residents are being given plenty of notice the adjust their schedules. Plan to attend at least one of these meetings to learn about your community, and maybe even meet some neighbours and the men and women who are running this town.
Bring your concerns and sugggestions. Or sing their praises if you like the way things are.
This is your chance to be heard.

One of the major causes of home fires, especially during the winter, is leaving burning candles unattended.
It is easy to forget that such a calming artifact is an open flame that can reach 1,400C. Most candle fires begin in the bedroom with a mattress or bedding cited as the first item to ignite. During the holidays, when more people use candles precariously too close to decorations, furniture and plastics are cited as the first items in the home to catch fire from a lit candle.
Statistics reveal that the most common causes of fire are:
• leaving candles unattended• candles located too close to
burnable objects• falling asleep while a candle
is lit• using candles for light• candles knocked over by
children, pets or sudden drafts
Safety Tips• extinguish candles when
leaving the room or going to sleep
• keep lit candles away from items that can catch fire such as toys, clothing, books, curtains, and paper decorations
• place candles in sturdy, burn-resistant containers that won’t tip over and are big enough to collect dripping wax
• don’t place lit candles near windows where blinds or
curtains may close or blow over them
• don’t use candles in high traffic areas where children or pets could knock them over
• never let candles burn out completely. Extinguish them when they get to within two inches of the holder or decorative material
• never leave children or pets alone in a room with lit candles
• do not allow older children to light candles in their bedrooms. A forgotten candle or an accident is all it takes to start a fire
For fire safety questions you can call the Fire/Rescue Service weekdays at 604-820-3794, or check www.mission.ca/fire.

During the smoke testing, field crews blow air and non-toxic smoke into the sanitary sewer system and monitor where smoke escapes.
The District of Mission’s contractor, ABC Pipe Cleaning Service Ltd., will deliver to all effected businesses and residences a notification brochure 48 hours prior to the testing. If you do not receive a notification then your area will not be covered under this program.
For further information please contact the District of Mission Engineering Department at 604-820-3736 or visit the District of Mission website, www.mission.ca for detailed information and the boundary area where the smoke testing will be performed.

The District of Mission is preparing to host a delegation of visitors from our sister city of Oyama, Japan over the 2013 Canada Day weekend.
The invitation has been sent by Mayor Ted Adlem for a delegation of Oyama residents and officials visit between June 28 and July 5, 2013.
This important visit will serve to return the remarkable hospitality that was offered to Mission’s 2009 delegation to Oyama, in which the gift of a locally carved house post was presented and installed at the Oyama Cultural Centre.
Our past Mission delegations have been billeted in the homes of our sister city’s citizens and exposed to rich intercultural experiences. Strong bonds of friendship have developed between our two communities over the years, and the upcoming visit of the Oyama delegation will bring with it, a gift for Mission citizens, a Friendship Bell.
Mission International Cultural Association (MICA) will organize and coordinate the visit of some 30 Oyama delegates with input provided by the District of Mission. Much work needs to be done in preparing for this visit, so it’s all hands on deck.
Members of the public are invited to attend the MICA 2013 Oyama delegation planning meeting on Thursday, Feb. 21 in the District of Mission council chambers.
It will only take about an hour of your time and anyone interested in helping plan or host the event is encouraged to attend.
We are inviting the citizens of Mission
to come forward and help in extending the best of Mission’s renowned hospitality to our guests. We want them to enjoy the full flavour of Mission, and be immersed in a true Canadian cultural experience over the Canada Day weekend, enriched by sharing our homes and our time with them.
Please consider having a delegate billeted in your home,
or offering your time in hosting our guests in various planned activities. Check out our Facebook
page (search Mission International Cultural Association) to learn more.
If you are interested in taking part please contact Kelly Ridley at 604-820-3705 or Cory Cassel at [email protected].
Help welcome Oyama visitors
A delegation from Oyama, Japan, will be presenting a Friendship Bell to Mission.

B.C. band Mother Mother is touring the country and will be in Mission on Dec. 12.
The group will be pro-moting their new album, The Sticks, released just this month.
The Juno-nominated quintet will begin their trip on the East Coast, starting in Halifax, and will gradually make their way out west. Hannah Georgas will be their special guest.
The Sticks follows a whirlwind year of near constant touring in support of their previ-ous album Eureka, and features a collection of 14 new songs includ-
ing the addictive first single Let’s Fall In Love, currently sitting at num-ber two nationally on the Modern Rock radio chart.
The band’s ascent from an acoustic folk trio tour-ing the open mics of their hometown (Quadra Island), to an interna-tionally revered alterna-tive pop/rock five-piece touring the clubs, the-aters and event centers of North America and Europe, not only dem-onstrates just how far they’ve come but has also blazed the trail for what’s to follow. Featuring the multi-talented line up of Ryan Guldemond (vo-
cals/guitar), Molly Gul-demond (vocals/synth), Jasmin Parkin (vocals/keys), Jeremy Page (bass/horns) and Ali Sia-dat (percussion/electron-ics), Mother Mother’s unique blend of clever lyrics, stunning vocals, quirky arrangements and a multi-dimensional sound both on stage and in the studio has amassed the group a reputation that has brought about their celebration as indie darlings, all the while endearing to the main-stream.
Mother Mother will be playing at the Clarke The-atre on Dec. 12. Tickets at Ticketmaster.ca.
Help ring in the fes-tive season and support your local food bank and Mission Commu-nity Services Christmas Bureau by attending Mission Rotary Club’s annual Christmas Carol Festival held at the Clarke Theatre Nov. 29 at 7 p.m.
This year’s festi-val features Deroche, Dewdney, and Cherry Hill elementary schools, Heritage Park Second-ary and Valley Christian School.
Also performing are Joy Vox Community Choir, the Fraser Valley Stage Society and the Chilliwack Symphony Chorus.
Admission is by dona-tion to the Food Bank and Christmas Bureau and Rotarians will be on hand in the lobby to assist Phil Hope from Mission Community Services in collecting the items. This event has a long history in Mission and has a sing-a-long portion at the end of the program which for many marks the beginning of the Christmas season in our community. For fur-ther information please call Rotarian Pam Alexis at 604-302-2005.

B.C. band Mother Mother is touring the country and will be in Mission on Dec. 12.
The group will be pro-moting their new album, The Sticks, released just this month.
The Juno-nominated quintet will begin their trip on the East Coast, starting in Halifax, and will gradually make their way out west. Hannah Georgas will be their special guest.
The Sticks follows a whirlwind year of near constant touring in support of their previ-ous album Eureka, and features a collection of 14 new songs includ-
ing the addictive first single Let’s Fall In Love, currently sitting at num-ber two nationally on the Modern Rock radio chart.
The band’s ascent from an acoustic folk trio tour-ing the open mics of their hometown (Quadra Island), to an interna-tionally revered alterna-tive pop/rock five-piece touring the clubs, the-aters and event centers of North America and Europe, not only dem-onstrates just how far they’ve come but has also blazed the trail for what’s to follow. Featuring the multi-talented line up of Ryan Guldemond (vo-
cals/guitar), Molly Gul-demond (vocals/synth), Jasmin Parkin (vocals/keys), Jeremy Page (bass/horns) and Ali Sia-dat (percussion/electron-ics), Mother Mother’s unique blend of clever lyrics, stunning vocals, quirky arrangements and a multi-dimensional sound both on stage and in the studio has amassed the group a reputation that has brought about their celebration as indie darlings, all the while endearing to the main-stream.
Mother Mother will be playing at the Clarke The-atre on Dec. 12. Tickets at Ticketmaster.ca.
Help ring in the fes-tive season and support your local food bank and Mission Commu-nity Services Christmas Bureau by attending Mission Rotary Club’s annual Christmas Carol Festival held at the Clarke Theatre Nov. 29 at 7 p.m.
This year’s festi-val features Deroche, Dewdney, and Cherry Hill elementary schools, Heritage Park Second-ary and Valley Christian School.
Also performing are Joy Vox Community Choir, the Fraser Valley Stage Society and the Chilliwack Symphony Chorus.
Admission is by dona-tion to the Food Bank and Christmas Bureau and Rotarians will be on hand in the lobby to assist Phil Hope from Mission Community Services in collecting the items. This event has a long history in Mission and has a sing-a-long portion at the end of the program which for many marks the beginning of the Christmas season in our community. For fur-ther information please call Rotarian Pam Alexis at 604-302-2005.

To Row The oaRs oR UnfURl The sails
Our journey through life is sometimes described as a boat ride. Sometimes we take an active role in that ride, steering the boat or rowing the oars. Other times, we take a more passive role, unfurling the sails and letting the wind pull us along. There are times in life when we must be active to get what we want; a rowboat won’t go very far on calm water without someone working the oars. But there are times in life when we really don’t have much control over things, and we can just go with the flow. But even then, we need to make sure we are facing in the right direction. A strong wind may make our journey a lot easier, but only if the boat is pointing in the right direction. We are all on a journey to the heart of God. Sometimes we need to take the oars in our hands and row. Other times, we just need to unfurl our sails and catch the wind of God. But in either case, we need to be heading in the right direction. Fortunately, God has implanted in us a moral compass, our conscience, which lets us know whether we are on the right track or not. We should pay attention to what our moral compass is telling us, follow it with integrity, and row the oars or unfurl the sails, as the situation demands.
By rejecting conscience, certain persons have made shipwreck of their faith.

GET OVER IT!It goes without saying, but I’ll say it anyway: “we have all made mistakes.” As Alexander Pope so aptly put it: “To err is human, to forgive, divine.” We should remember this the next time we make a mistake. Most certainly, we must learn from our mistakes, and hopefully not continue to repeat them, but we should also forgive ourselves. While it can be hard enough to forgive others for their mistakes, it can sometimes feel almost impossible to forgive ourselves. We sometimes cannot bring ourselves to forgive something we’ve done, and we may punish and harangue ourselves for years, or even decades, over youthful indiscretions. In addition, some of us may not be able to forget the sins of our past. And although that may prevent us from repeating them, we must be charitable and forgive ourselves, just as we should forgive others. So, we should make a real effort in the coming days and weeks to forgive the offenses of others as well as our own. Sometimes, it helps to just forget about them; that is, to try to put them out of our mind and stop repeatedly mulling over them. One of the reasons we use the phrase “forgive and forget” is because sometimes that is the only way to forgive, i.e., by forgetting. But far better, and more divine, is to be able to forgive even while remembering the offense. So, we should let go of those unforgiving, vindictive, shameful feelings about the past, and get over it! Corrie ten Boom, who survived incarceration in a Nazi prison camp said, “Forgiveness is to set a prisoner free, and to realize that the prisoner was you.”Judge not, and you will not be judged; condemn
not, and you will not be condemned; forgive, and you will be forgiven...

The District of Mis-sion has scheduled a set of town hall meetings on Thursdays.
Residents can come to municipal hall council chambers on April 25, Sept. 12 and Dec. 12, 2013 to discuss concerns and share ideas with Mayor Ted Adlem and council.
Councillor Larry Nundal said he doesn’t want council setting the agenda for the meetings, but rather let the resi-
dents come with topics in mind.
“My feeling is it should be the public who brings anything forward. Any discussion should be
coming from the floor, not from us to the floor,” said Nundal.
Coun. Jenny Stevens agreed. She said this is one council meeting
where she hopes she won’t see an agenda.
“This is an open invi-tation from council, for the public to come and talk to council and staff
and raise any topic they want to,” said Stevens. “The agenda belongs to the people.”
All town hall meetings will begin at 7 p.m.
Town Hall meetings planned
The District of Mission relying on the kindness of strangers in dealing with an eyesore on Cedar Street.
Council voted to 4-3 to solicit the help of local gardening groups to clean up the storm-water detention pond on Cedar Street.
District staff had rec-ommended spending $8,500 to install green screening inserts on the side with the pond as well planting about 20 trees to improve the area. The district would then clean up the rest of the area north and south of the pond once properties in that area are developed.
Coun. Jenny Stevens said she would rather see if a local garden group had any ideas to improve the area.
“Frankly, if we’ve got $8,500 to spend on get-ting rid of an eyesore and improving things, quite honestly I think we could benefit the com-munity more by spend-ing it downtown,” said Stevens
However, to say the district doesn’t have the money is not entirely ac-curate, said coun. Dave Hensman.
He said the more than $129,000 that is current-ly in the district’s tree planting account is there specifically for these types of projects.
“We want to beautify and improve our commu-nity. That’s why we’re here, folks,” said Hens-man. “So let’s move for-ward and beautify Mis-sion, and if it’s one lot at a time, bring me the next ugly one on your list and let’s look at that one too.”
Stevens, along with councillors Nelson Til-bury, Larry Nundal, and Jeff Jewel carried the motion to approach the local gardening groups.
