Man missing from camp Worries mount since last sighting in Hope

Members of Abbotsford Fire Rescue Service use a sling and rope system to slowly pull a sedated Tinker out of the ditch into which she had fallen and could not escape on Wednesday afternoon on Bates Road. Story on A5. VIKKI HOPES Abbotsford News

TIM RUTHERFORD

Vikki HOPESAbbotsford News

Friends of an Abbotsford man who was last seen near a camping area in Hope on Aug. 24 says his disap-pearance is out of character, and they are concerned about what has happened to him.

Angie Korkowski, executive direc-tor of Joshua House recovery min-

istry in Abbotsford, says friends are worried that Tim Rutherford could have gone down an embankment or that he might have relapsed after eight years of being clean and sober.

They are trying to remain hopeful and not think about the worst-case scenario.

Hope RCMP issued a press release on Tuesday asking for the public’s

help in trying to locate Rutherford, 46.

He was last seen by a camp ranger on Sunday, Aug. 24 at about 1 p.m., when he was parked at the Jones Lake pull-out near the Highway 1 exit 153 in Hope.

Rutherford had been camping in the area, but none of his friends

Public input sought on regional bus plan

Campsite still set up with tent, personal items

Fraser Valley Express bus will connect Chilliwack, Abbotsford and Langley

or family have seen or heard from him since.

His vehicle, a 1998 hunter-green Ford Explorer with a sunroof and B.C. licence plate 542 WTP, has not been located.

Korkowski said Rutherford, whom she has known since 2006, had been a Joshua House staff member when he abruptly quit his job on July 28.

She said he seemed distraught at the time, and announced that he was going to go camping to get away and clear his head.

Korkowski said Rutherford camped at Rolley Lake in Mission for the first half of August before moving to the Jones Lake area.

He was in touch with friends every cou-

ple of days, and Korkowski said she last heard from him on Aug. 21.

Friends tried to reach him on his cell-phone after that, but their calls went to voicemail.

A worried Korkowski, accompanied by her husband and a friend, went searching for Rutherford on Friday, Aug. 29. They located his campsite, which was still set up with his tent, camp stove, and other personal items, but Rutherford and his vehicle were gone.

The trio could find no sign of him, and reported their concerns to police.

Korkowski said Rutherford loved to go 4x4ing in his SUV, and she is concerned that he might have had an accident, per-haps rolling down an embankment.

“It’s a scary place to think that he’s out there alone or hurt,” she said.

Korkowski said friends are also con-cerned that Rutherford might have re-lapsed and is afraid to face them, but she said they will support and help him if thatis the case.

“I just want to bring him home … I con-sider him like my little brother. It’s so sad that nobody has heard from him at all,” she said.

Rutherford is described as 5’1”, heavy-set, with shoulder-length brown hair, anda brown/red moustache. Anyone with in-formation is asked to contact the Hope RCMP at 604-869-7750 and reference Hopefile 2014-29457, or call Crime Stoppers at1-800-222-8477.

Pranav Arya studies at the Abbotsford Community Library next to his school, Abbotsford Senior Secondary, while teachers are on strike.

ALEX BUTLER Abbotsford News

School strike concerns

Student of International Baccalaureate worries

Alex BUTLER and Jeff NAGELAbbotsford News

Public classes are out, but Pranav Arya – a 16-year-old student heading into Grade 12 – was hard at work on school projects in the Abbotsford Community Library on Thursday.

His school, the neighbouring Abbotsford senior secondary, remains behind picket lines and it is still unclear when classes may begin.

Arya studies in the International Baccalaureate (IB) program, which assigns some work for the sum-mer months.

He is among many students who are growing con-cerned about missing class time.

Arya has an exam in May that is worth the major-ity of his grade, which will remain the same regard-less of how many days of school there are.

“Every day that I miss, other students are getting to work and learning.”

Arya said if the strike continues until October, he may have an issue, predicting that weekends and break will be effected to put in extra study time.

He wants to study engineering with a minor in business at the University of British Columbia and is worried about applications for scholarships.

“It will be more difficult to say what I’ve done in the last year, when other students across the coun-try haven’t been hindered by the strike.”

His involvement at school goes past high-level academics. He had hopes to start a debate team, but he is unable to talk to his teachers. The Key Club service group he’s a member of can’t meet.

Arya is on the football team, which is playing with the help of parents and community members, but he’s worried about cuts to the season and the im-pact on a championship drive.

Although Arya will stay involved with clubs, he wonders if Grade 9’s entering high school will be overwhelmed by a late start and less inclined to take on extracurriculars.

He continues to monitor the information coming from the government and the union.

“IB is about learning how to think about what you’re being told,” explained Ayra, saying it seems to him that both sides are putting blame on the other.

But he added that the province is comparing teachers to other workers in the public sector, in-stead of teachers around the country, and there is a need to place a higher level of respect on what teachers do.

He’s hoping for a resolution that will put him back

Mitigating the impact

into a classroom soon. Kevin Godden, superintendent of Abbotsford

schools, said the district doesn’t yet have plans onhow to make up for lost time.

“It’s safe to say that we have to take some direc-tion from the ministry of education on this.”

He also said it’s important to consult with teachersto work out scheduling issues, but that cannot be done while they are on strike.

He said it is particularly important in order to as-sist students in Grades 10 to 12.

“They are at the end of their K-12 journey and the courses that they have to take, especially if theyhave some impact on their post-secondary educa-tion, we have to give some serious thought to how we will make up credits for those kids.”

But he added that teachers are dedicated to theirstudents. “I know they will do their best when thisis over to get on with it.”

Peter Fassbender, minister of education, told TheNews that ministry staff are working hard on plansto mitigate the impact of missed class time.

“I don’t have specifics. There are all kinds of op-tions – looking at extending the year, shortening Christmas, spring break… extending the days. Butright now there is no firm plan because our hope is that teach-ers would be willing to suspend their strike action while we try to get a negotiated and/or mediated settlement.”

B.C. Teachers’ Federation presi-dent Jim Iker ruled out a two-week truce the province proposed last week and is still offering.

“The government remains en-trenched and unwilling to be flexible,” he told re-porters. “We’re not suspending any strike right now.”

Fassbender has vowed the government won’tlegislate the teachers back to work, as it has severaltimes in the past.

The strike began with rotating walkouts in the spring and turned into a complete school shutdown in mid-June.

There were virtually no negotiations through thesummer until a last-minute effort at exploratorytalks led by mediator Vince Ready began last week.

Ready walked away last Saturday, declaring an im-passe with the two sides too far apart for mediation.

Provincial government negotiator Peter Cameronsaid the government is not interested in binding ar-bitration to settle the strike, as it would be empow-ering one person to force through a final decision that might be extremely costly. Nor, he said, is it theoptimum way to reach a result best for students inclassrooms or that the two sides can live with.

“The parties end up not really having made thehard decisions and owning the outcome,” Cameronsaid of arbitration.

BCTF vice-president Glen Hansman said the union“might be open” to arbitration but doesn’t expect in-terest from the province.

For upcoming graduates, Fassbender told TheNews he has been talking with advanced educationminister Amrik Virk, who he said “has been talking to universities as far as entry requirements andthose kinds of things and I’m sure we’ll find a wayto deal with that.”

Asked what he would do to end future labour strifebetween teachers and government, Fassbender toldThe News that involves having a longer-term agree-ment “so that we’re not always on the labour tread-mill, which we’ve been on for decades,” and setting up ways to work on contract issues on an ongoing basis and not simply at the next round of negotia-tions.

If those efforts were made, “I think we would findourselves working more in partnership on the fu-ture of education for every student in our system,rather than into this kind of standoff on the labour side.”

Horse pulled from muddy ditchAbbotsford firefighters come to the rescue


Tinker the mare had a bit of a fright on Wednesday afternoon, but she can thank members of Abbotsford Fire Rescue Service (AFRS) for turning her day around.

The horse fell into a ditch at Matway Farms – located at 4674 Bates Road, east of Townshipline Road – at about 1:45 p.m. on Wednesday.

Fire crews who ar-rived at the scene found Tinker in a water-filled ditch with her back legs wedged into the muddy bottom.

As they determined the best way to try to move her, the mare occasionally became agitated and thrashed around.

A wool blanket was placed over her head as a temporary measure.

“If they can’t see, it calms them down,” said Assistant Fire Chief Craig Bird at the scene.

A veterinarian was also called to the scene, and she administered a sedative to calm the

horse. Crews were then able

to position a sling sys-tem around Tinker. This was a challenge due to the horse’s weight and the way that she was positioned in the ditch.

About an hour later,

six firefighters were able to start slowly inching Tinker out of the ditch, using their strength and a rope system.

The horse was still se-dated as she emerged fully from the ditch,

and it was about an-other 20 minutes before she was alert.

A quick check from the veterinarian en-sured that Tinker had no broken bones, and she was able to stand and be led away as if

nothing untoward had taken place.

Bird said Abbotsford firefighters handle about one or two horse rescues a year.

“Over the course of our career, we do quite a few of them.”

Tinker, a mare that was rescued on Wednesday afternoon after getting stuck in a muddy ditch, becomes alert and ready to stand. She had been given a sedative to keep her calm while being pulled out.

QUESTION

OF THE WEEK

LAST WEEK, WE ASKED:

Should the B.C. government legislatestriking teachers back to work?

Do you approve of the B.C. government’s promise to use striking teachers’

salary savings to pay parents $40 per daytoward child daycare?

To answer, go to abbynews.com

232 responded:

YES: 50 % NO: 50 %

WebTalk

All I have heard is “reduce load/students and increase salary.” If any rational working person requested this

from their employer: “I wanna take on less responsibil-ity (a.k.a. less students) yet I demand a raise,” would be laughed at. Work a non-union job and see what the real

world is like for the rest of us that aren’t able to gang up on taxpayers in the name of “children.”

David Lee

Maybe kids should be dropped off at the Parliament building in Victoria, and Christy Clark can take

care of them.Barbara Ohl

Once again the people in charge of our amazing teachers and amazing kids can’t act like adults and get

our kids in school.Nic Dyck

It‘s an embarrassment to know that B.C. has no public education as of now. Thanks BCTF, you have failed.

Union, government share blameI feel compelled to write concerning the teach-

ers’ strike and am appalled at the attitude of both the BCTF and the Liberal government.

The head of the BCTF can only be described as a total embarrassment for the teachers, as he has shown absolutely no interest in the education of our children, and from the reported demands he is completely unrealistic.

The attitude of the Liberal government shows they are putting their heads in the sand and show no leadership in ensuring the public educa-tion system operates as it is supposed to.

It is my view that strikes and/or lockouts in the public education system should be prohibited, and disputes of this nature settled by compul-sory mediation through an established mediator.

The education of our children should never be subjected to the greed of teachers or govern-ments.

In the present situation, the BCTF should show some positive leadership by directing members to return to work so that students will not be subject to irreparable harm.

(Jim Iker’s) failure to do so can only be de-scribed as an embarrassment.

That term also applies to the provincial govern-ment, which seems to willingly sit back and do nothing.

What the government should be doing is seek-ing assistance to resolve the issues either with the co-operation of the BCTF or otherwise.

This matter shows the BCTF should look for a new president, and the people in British Columbia should ensure the Liberals are not again re-elected in the next provincial election.

Unaware of issuesThe events of the

past four months or so have certainly shaken confidence in the edu-cation system and the mechanics in place to ensure students re-ceive a quality educa-tion in our province.

As a teacher, I’m con-stantly frustrated that various media stories must, by necessity, focus on specific ele-ments of the issue and therefore most stories tend to miss many of the important facts.

The more I read from the general public, I’m realize that the major-ity of people are not aware of all the issues at play.

First off, this bat-tle is really one that should be waged by our school trustees and parents. Instead, after years of erosion in the system, teach-ers have been forced to the front lines. Only recently have parents and trustees realized that they, too, need to be at the forefront of this battle.

Secondly, this is not a battle over wages and benefits. Well, not the way “benefits” would normally be classi-fied. The government views any demands for funding the system as teacher “benefits.” In other words, Johnny’s one-on-one time with a special needs teacher qualifies as a “benefit” to me. Not sure how this makes sense.

Lastly, composition issues have been an issue for over 15 years.

Teachers have made concessions in the past to ensure com-position language in our contracts, and the government of the day has illegally stripped this language. Any cur-rent proposal from the government to end the present strike includes language that would negate any court rul-ings that the Supreme Court of appeal may

dictate. Why would teachers negotiate away things the courts have ruled in their fa-vour?

Please, be in-formed. And recog-nize that your govern-ment is spending your tax dollars doing ev-erything it can (fight-ing court cases, pro-viding day care, etc) to avoid investing in pub-lic education.

Pioneer Tea honours long-time residentsMore than 70 long-time residents of Abbotsford

were honoured on Sunday afternoon at a specialevent held at Trethewey House.

The MSA Museum Society hosted a “Pioneer Tea”for long-term residents of Abbotsford whose fami-lies settled in the Matsqui-Sumas-Abbotsford areas as far back as the 1870s.

A special presentation was made by long-timeMatsqui prairie resident Ernie Poignant that had ev-eryone reflecting on Abbotsford’s early beginnings. Long-standing Valley resident Mayor Bruce Banman,who was raised in Chilliwack, officially welcomedthe pioneers and reflected on his family’s ties toVancouver.

Banman presented an award to 95-year-old Len Hoon, the oldest person in attendance. Coun. MoeGill presented an award to 93-year-old Cyril Holbrow, who was born and raised in Clayburn Village.

Pioneers, including former mayor George Ferguson, spent time reminiscing and reflecting on their past,telling stories of what it was like growing up andliving in the area.

Many of the families in attendance are featured in the MSA Museum’s book “Pioneer Families,” avail-able at the society’s office next to Trethewey House on Ware Street.

Long-time residents were recognized at a special tealast weekend.

Spikes in stolen HondasPolice report ‘unprecedented’ numbers


The Abbotsford Police Department (APD) is re-porting what it says is an unprecedented num-ber of Honda passenger vehicles being stolen in the city since July 1.

Const. Ian MacDonald said of the 102 passen-ger vehicles stolen in Abbotsford from July 1 to Sept. 2, 24 have been Hondas. This represents almost 24 per cent of all the vehicles stolen in Abbotsford during that time.

“These are unprec-edented numbers and percentages,” MacDonald said.

In the previous 64-day period, only two Honda passenger vehicles were stolen.

There were 37 such vehicles stolen in all of 2013, but so far in 2014, a total of 41 Hondas have been swiped, MacDonald said. This represents an increase of 32 per cent.

MacDonald said the majority of stolen Hondas are pre-2004 models, before immo-bilizers and anti-theft devices were commonly built into vehicles.

He said thefts have occurred across Abbotsford, but in the last two weeks have been concentrated in an area between Marshall Road and South Fraser

Way and between Gladwin and Clearbrook.

Some of the Hondas stolen from Abbotsford have been recovered in other communities and most likely were used in the commission of other offences, MacDonald said.

He said the crime spike could indicate that a particular per-son – or people – who is proficient with steal-ing Hondas has recently begun living in, or fre-quenting, the commu-

nity.A crime spike can

occur, for example, when an offender has been released from pris-on.

MacDonald said po-lice have stepped up enforcement in the tar-geted areas and have added extra monitor-ing by the Abbotsford Citizens’ Patrol and re-serve constables.

Officers have also been approaching Honda owners to inform them of the spree and to in-

form them that the APD is offering free anti-theft devices to Abbotsford registered owners of pre-2004 Hondas.

Those interested can drop by the community policing office at #105 34194 Marshall Rd. with their registration docu-ments.

Anyone with informa-tion about auto theft is asked to contact the APD at 604-859-5225, text 222973 (abbypd) or call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

A police-generated map shows the location of recent thefts of Hondas, which have soared this summer.

Council has approved a budget amendment to reflect a $5.5-mil-lion payment to the Abbotsford Heat.

Once the anchor ten-ant of the Abbotsford Entertainment and Sports Centre – now re-named the Abbotsford Centre – the Calgary Flames-affiliated team’s contract was terminat-ed in April when Mayor Bruce Banman an-nounced the city would pay the team to end the remaining five years of the 10-year supply fee agreement signed in 2009.

A city report says the one-time payment was made from the city’s 2014 unappropriated re-serves and will not have an impact on property tax.

19-year-old runs for seat

Raymond Kobes has announced plans to seek a seat at the council table in the November civic election.

The 19-year-old stu-dent at the University of the Fraser Valley is currently working on a degree in busi-ness with an ex-tended minor in French.

Kobes said he is running in part to help “ r e p r e s e n t the youth and young adults that are preva-lent in Abbotsford,” add-ing that he plans to do this with a conservative financial approach.

The lifelong Abbotsford resident sits on the parks, recreation and culture commis-sion, is an organizer for the Jam in Jubilee sum-mer concert series and

a member of other local organizations.

He lists on his website the importance of youth representation, ac-countability and trans-parency in city council, keeping the city “both environmentally friend-

ly while keeping it a economical-ly inviting city,” and allowing small entrepre-neurs and busi-ness owners to “be free and able to work here in A b b o t s f o r d , growing and

promoting their busi-nesses.”

Kobes said he in-tents to build support through direct commu-nication and people can expect him to “knock on their doors in the com-ing months in order to build a relationship with them.”

The Value of a Musical EducationTen benefits of playinga musical instrument1. Early musical training helps develop

the brain. Especially in the areas of language, reasoning, spacial intelli-gence and problem solving. Students who study music are more successful in school and score higher grades not only in math, but also in the lan-guage arts and comprehension. High quality music study can result in up to 20% improvement in test scores.

2. Students of music learn teamwork skills and self-discipline. Playing in a band or orchestra requires stu-dents to listen, to work together for a harmonious product, and individual practice time where they perfect their own part.

3. Music provides children with a means of self-expression. This abil-ity to express what you feel through art often results in improved self-es-teem.

4. The study of music teaches perse-verance and improves memory. New research suggests that regularly playing an instrument changes the shape and power of the brain. When you realize that it is only through repetition that you can master the music, you learn the power of perseverance.

5. Playing an instrument enhances coordination. The art of playing requires hand-eye coordination. The musician has to convert the musical notes on a page to specifi c motor patterns, while adding breathing and rhythm and expression to the mix.

6. The arts teach empathy towards peo-ple from other cultures by introduc-ing art from other times and cultures. In addition, musicians learn to com-municate with others and cooperate in making music together.

7. Students of music learn craftsman-ship as they study how the details are painstakingly put together, and what constitutes good work.

8. Music performance teaches young people to conquer fear and take risks. By performing in front of others, stu-dents learn their own potential and how to overcome anxiety. This mental toughness contributes to mental health and self-confi dence.

9. Those who study music have long-term health benefi ts. Not only does music study improve IQ in children, but music therapy can help peo-ple recover from strokes, and help treat neurological disorders such as stuttering, autism and Parkinson’s disease. Music training has also been shown to delay the onset of demen-tia.

10. New research is demonstrating that learning to play an instrument leads to changes in a child’s brain that makes it more likely they will reach their full cognitive and academ-ic potential. Neuroscientists are demonstrating through the use of Magnetic Resonance Imaging that participating in musical activities stimulates a whole network of brain areas. This brain workout leads to improved structure and function through a process called neuroplas-ticity – in which the brain creates new neural pathways and connections.

Silver sweet for Sidhu, KerrAbby athletes star at Youth

OlympicsDan KINVIGAbbotsford News

Abbotsford’s Amrit Sidhu and the Canadian men’s field hockey teammates were the Cardiac Kids of the re-cent Youth Olympics in Nanjing, China, win-ning a silver medal in the most dramatic way possible.

Canada isn’t a tradi-tional field hockey pow-erhouse – most of the time, it’s a major feat just to qualify for big international events.

But playing the new Hockey5s version of the sport, Sidhu’s squad saw each of its three playoff games go to a shootout.

“By the time the third shootout came, I was like, ‘This is ridicu-lous,’” Sidhu said with a chuckle. “But it shows our ability to overcome adversity.”

Team Canada went 2-2 in the round robin, with wins over South Africa (5-1) and Bangladesh (4-1), and losses to Spain (6-3) and Australia (5-2). But it was in the playoff rounds that things got really interesting.

In the quarter-finals, Canada and Pakistan were tied 7-7 after regu-lation time, necessitat-ing a shootout which Canada won 3-2. In the semis, they met unde-feated Spain, and once again went to a shoot-out with the score tied

Abbotsford’s Amrit Sidhu was the Canadian field hockey team’s leading scorer at the Youth Olympics in China. His squad won a silver medal.

Cascades’ home games move back to Abbotsford

Dan KINVIGAbbotsford News

The University of the Fraser Valley soccer teams are coming home to Abbotsford.

After playing their home games at Chilliwack’s Exhibition Field for the past two seasons, the Cascades’ home pitch for the 2014 campaign will be Panther Field, the all-weather turf facil-ity at Abbotsford Senior

Secondary.The initial move to

Chilliwack was to allowUFV to play evening home games, whichmade it easier for themmarket to youth soccerteams who often playgames of their own on Saturday afternoons. The team’s previous home, Bateman Park,didn’t have lights on the field, thus evening games weren’t a pos-sibility.

Connor MacMillan and the UFV soccer teams host theirhome openers on Sunday vs. UBC.

Home openers SundayPanther Field, though,

is lit, and offers the best of both worlds to the Cascades.

“It’s good to be back home,” said UFV wom-en’s soccer coach Rob Giesbrecht.

“It makes more sense

to be closer to our main campus for the parentsand family and friendsof the players, and we’re trying to work positiverelationships with the local club (AbbotsfordMagnuson Ford SC).”

The Cascades open the Canada West regu-lar season this weekend – they visit the TrinityWestern Spartans on Friday (women 5 p.m.,men 7 p.m.) and hostthe UBC Thunderbirds on Sunday (women 12p.m., men 2 p.m.).

Both teams are rankedsixth in the Canada Westcoaches’ poll to start theseason.

Alan Errington’s men’s squad is coming off a breakthrough 2013 cam-paign – they earnedtheir first playoff berthin eight Canada Westseasons, and won theCW bronze medal.

“I think getting in there gives us a bit morebelief, and it’s certainlyhelped us in the recruit-ing process,” Errington said. “We’ve had moreplayers wanting to cometo UFV than ever before. I look at the squad, and it’s the strongest we’veever had.”

Keeper Mark Village, a second team CanadaWest all-star in 2012, isbattling a concussionand may not be availablefor opening weekend,but Errington feels goodabout his goalie depth with Arturo Ortiz of Mexico and rookie AlexSkrzeta of Coquitlam.

In the midfield, Errington is unveiling the program’s first-everrecruits from England, Harry Owen and Mason Thompson.

Up front, returnee James Najman will be relied upon for goal-scoring, while the likesof Ravi Singh and ColtonO’Neill anchor a solid back line.

The UFV women’ssquad is also coming off a playoff berth in 2013, though they were eliminated in the quar-ter-finals by the AlbertaPandas, and Giesbrechtbelieves the team is ca-pable of a step forward this season.

Kara Delwo, who hasexcelled in the pre-season after undergoing ACL surgery last year, and sophomore Carley Radomski lead the wayin the midfield, while rookie striker Monika Levarsky should make an instant impact.

The defence boasts solid veterans in Jade Palm, Dayle Jeras and Tristan Corneil, whilekeeper Kayla Klim is coming off a su-perb summer with the Seattle Sounders of theW-League.

‘An amazing journey’ to Youth Olympics podium4-4. They completed the upset with a 6-5 tri-umph in the shootout, with Sidhu notching the winner.

Canada met Australia in the final, and were trailing 3-1 with less than three minutes left in the third period. But Sidhu scored twice to force a shootout – the tying goal coming with just five seconds left – and then opened the skills competition with a goal. Australia, though, rallied to win it 3-2.

“We felt like we won the gold medal, because of how we bonded as a team and all the adver-sity we went through,” Sidhu said. “We weren’t sad. It was an amazing journey.

“People call it a mira-cle (for Canada to win field hockey silver), but I realized that it’s not. It’s a lot of work ethic, and doing the little things right. It’s the little de-tails that people don’t see that add up to win games like that.”

Sidhu, a 17-year-old Rick Hansen Secondary grad who is embark-ing on his first year of engineering studies at the University of the Fraser Valley, was Team Canada’s top goal-scorer with nine in regulation and four in shootouts.

Fellow Abbotsford native Lauren Kerr also

brought h o m e a silver m e d a l f r o m Nanjing, finishing s e c o n d – also to

Australia – in the wom-en’s rugby sevens tour-nament.

For the 18-year-old Robert Bateman Secondary grad, even getting to the Youth Olympics was an adven-ture. The manager of the Canadian rugby team had Kerr’s travel visas, and was supposed to pass that paperwork on to her when she caught a connecting flight out of Vancouver with the rest of the team. But the incoming flight was de-layed, and by the time it landed, it was too late for Kerr to retrieve her visa, clear security and get on the plane. So while the rest of the squad got on the flight to China, Kerr was left at the Vancouver airport.

“I for sure panicked,” Kerr recounted with a chuckle. “My parents had gone two days be-fore me . . . so I didn’t have anyone to call. I wasn’t really sure what

to do.”Kerr ended up catch-

ing a flight the next day, and was able to quick-ly get into the swing of things at the Youth Olympics.

Team Canada dropped its first game 24-10 to host China, but then

caught fire, beating the U.S., Spain and Tunisia in pool play and topping China 26-19 in a semifi-nal rematch.

In the final, Canada fell 38-10 to Australia.

“I wish we had won that game so bad,” said Kerr, who is starting her

freshman year at the University of Victoria and will play rugby for the Vikes. “But being in that final was amazing.

“The fact you can get a Youth Olympic medal playing rugby – and hopefully the Olympics one day, fingers crossed

– is really exciting.” Wrestlers Austin

Gurm and Mickey Khehira rounded out the Abbotsford content at the Youth Olympics, and their outcomes were remarkably simi-lar.

Gurm, going into

Grade 11 at Abby Traditional, competed in the 76 kg free style division and won one of his three matches in his qualification pool. He capped his Youth Olympics run with a 4-0 loss to Ayoub Barraj of Tunisia in the fifth-sixth

placing match.Khehira, a senior-to-be

a W.J. Mouat Secondarywho competed in the 85kg Greco-Roman class, likewise went 1-2 inqualification pool actionand lost his fifth-sixthplacing match (4-0 to India’s Shri Pal).

DrivewayCanada.ca | Welcome to the driver’s seat

The Yukon is GMC Yukon territoryIt’s hard to believe but GMC has never held a vehicle launch for the Yukon full-sized SUV in the Yukon Territory, until now. Media from across Canada landed in Whitehorse and travelled around the territory recently in the all-new 2015 GMC Yukon model, ending up in the famous gold rush time capsule of Dawson City. From the wooden sidewalks to the gravel covered streets, this preserved part of history looks and feels much the way it would when gold was first discovered in 1896. The Yukon is also a great test for this big truck because of the immense stretches of unpopulated roads with smooth sections, potholes and loose gravel. The Yukon has it all, including spectacular vistas, wide-open space and spectacular scenery. Spending three days behind the wheel made me realize what a good job GMC has done with this truck, from fuel economy to creature comforts.

LooksLast year, GM introduced the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra full-size pickup trucks. In fact, the Silver-ado won the North American Truck of the Year and the GMC Sierra won the AJAC truck of the year. With a solid basis, the engineers then went about building the full-sized SUVs based on the truck chassis. They include the Chevrolet Suburban and Tahoe, the GMC Yukon and Denali, plus the Cadillac Escalade. These represent a huge profit centre for General Motors and they needed to get them right. The GMC Yukon is the most popular of the bunch with one-in-three full-sized SUV buyers choosing the Yukon, which is opposite to the United States where the Chevrolet trucks dominate. The top Yukon Denali model traditionally represents about 35 per cent of all Yukon sales but in the first few months of sales, it has captured more than 60 per cent.

Inside The long wheelbase model is an im-posing truck and a favourite of large families that need the third row of seating, plus a functional cargo area. The more popular short wheelbase offers a lot of room as well but when the third row of seats is employed the cargo area is diminished. On all but the base model, the second and third row of seats can be folded and store electronically. The Denali is exceptionally well equipped and shows great attention to detail, with the aluminum trim around the radio and heat controls, leather seating with French stitching. What the GMC Yukon offers over the Cadillac cousin is a simpler dashboard layout with traditional rotary knobs and buttons,

whereas the Cadillac has moved to touch sensitive panels that take time to master.

DriveThe Yukon is offered with two engine choices, the 5.3L 355hp V8 in the base SLE and middle SLT Yukon models and the 6.2L V8 in the Denali. This 6.2L engine is also used in the Escalade. There are several reasons to consider the Denali over the base 5.3L engine. The first is the inclusion of the magnetic ride control system that is also available in the Escalade. This sys-tem adapts the suspension up to 100 times per second and performed well on a variety of road surfaces in the Yukon. The second is a noise cancelling system that pumps sound waves through the Denali’s stereo system to help eliminate unwanted road and engine noise. The third reason is the mighty 6.2L engine with 420hp and 460 lb.-ft. of torque. Because this engine and the 5.3L have direct injection, variable value tim-ing and most importantly, cylinder management, the

V8 can switch off half of the eight cylinders and lean off the fuel mixture to reduce fuel consumption. With more than 1,000 km driven at a range of speeds, the real world consumption was 12L/100 km, close to the 11.4L/100 km official highway rating with the 6.2L engine. All the current Yukon models are equipped with a 6-speed automatic but the 6.2L engines will get an 8-speed this fall, with the 5.3L following next year. AWD is standard on all but the base model and these trucks can tow up to 3856 kg.VerdictThe Yukon is winner on all trim levels. I could find no fault but it is pricey. Starting at $51,800 for the SLE or $60,960 for the SLT and $75,540 for the Denali, this isn’t a cheap prospect. However, the Denali offers most of the same features as the more expensive Cadillac Escalade but is more use-friendly and less expensive.

If you’re driving to Hell, what kind of car would you want to be in?An SUV? A sports car? One that if you never come back, at least your missing person’s report would list you last seen: “in something fast, flashy and awesome?”When my driving partner and I stumbled upon Hell, Michigan, or at least the sign that directed us that way, we were in the all-new, 2015 Hyundai Sonata; a sedan that is now seven generations strong.We had air conditioning in case it got really hot and directions via the navigation system in case we wanted to go to Hell and back and lost our way. And com-fortable seats in case the crossing of the River Styx was long and arduous. Furthermore, we had the power to get us out of there if we needed to leave in a hurry.Okay, enough about Hell and back to the car… for 2015, the Sonata gives you two engine options; both of which have been revised for the seventh generation.The first is a peppy 2.4L, 4-cylinder with 185 horsepower and 178 lb-ft of torque.Then there’s the spir-ited, optional, 2.0-litre twin-scroll turbocharged four-cylinder engine with 245 horsepower and 260 lb-ft of torque. Both engine variants are linked with a 6-speed automatic trans-mission.There’s a lot going on with Hyundai’s mid-size sedan. It’s built with an all-new chassis, which equates to a more comfortable ride, better handling and an overall improvement in NVH (Noise, Vibrations, Harshness.) To test that out, we took it to the streets of Ann Arbor in Michigan, as well as the backcountry roads that have sweeping corners and tight turns.The first thing I noticed was how much better the han-dling was, especially when you have it in sport mode. The 2015 Sonata gives the driver a choice of three

drive modes. These modes work together with the se-dan’s engine, transmission, and Motor-Driven Power Steering (MDPS) to suit different driver preferences. In sport, powertrain responsiveness and heavier steering weight are both increased. The steering weight definitely comes in handy on the twisty parts of the road. In normal mode, steering isn’t as re-sponsive but better suited for urban environments. And if you’re in a fuel saving mood, pop the car into eco mode. This softens throttle response and recalibrates transmission response so you get the most out of your tank. Speaking of steering, Hyun-dai mentions, “The 2015 Sonata’s steering wheel features an irregular shape with increased rim thick-ness and ergonomic grip

rests. These subtle changes ensure more of the steering wheel surface remains in contact with the driver’s hands. In turn, the vehicle offers enhanced steering system feel, especially at high speed.”I’d agree with this. My fingers were comfortably placed at 9 and 3 o’clock and felt pretty good there.But it’s not just the driving modes and steering wheel that make the Sonata as popular as it is. The 2015 comes with all new styling inside and outside.Let’s start with the cabin, since the driver will spend more time looking at a centre stack than they will the front, hexagonal grille.Featuring even higher qual-ity materials than before, it’s softer to the touch and the layout is optimized for the driver. Placement of the buttons and switches in the Sonata was paramount and was a major focus for designers and engineers.On the outside, you’ll see a family resemblance to the Sonata’s big brother, the Genesis.

The character line is more pronounced, yet the cumulative look is more sophisticated and mature.It’s a tough segment to be in. When you have frontrunners like the Toy-ota Camry, Honda Accord, Mazda6 and more, it can get pretty heated. But the Sonata remains cool and collected and has the goods to keep up with the best of them. The 2015 Hyundai Sonata has a starting MSRP of $23,999. The top of the line Sport 2.0T Ultimate has an MSRP of $34,799.Visit www.hyundaicanada.com for more [email protected]

Driving to Hell and back Super-duper luxury cars and classy fashion

2015 Hyundai Sonata.

Canada’s most valuable collection of supercars and luxury brands rolls into Van-couver’s VanDusen Botanical Garden this weekend.The fifth Luxury and Su-percar Weekend will again showcase the crème de la crème of cars and also daz-zle with fashion and art on the Great Lawn. This event has grown as a spectacle each year and is now the talk of the town among auto aficionados.The wide selection of luxury cars includes examples of Lamborghini, Pagani, McLar-en, Bugatti, Ferrari, Jaguar, Rolls Royce, Bentley, Aston Martin, BMW, Cadillac, Lincoln and Mustang.

This year’s Canadian Concours d’Elegance classes include 100th anniversary of Maserati, 50 years of Mus-tang, 50 years of Jensen, 50 years of Sunbeam Tigers, the British Invasion, American Supercars, Modified Luxury and Modified Supercars, Chromes and Fins, Off Road Luxury, 50 years of Chevelle and GTO, Italian Supercars, Restomod, and Pre-First World War (Brass Era).Look out for the Pagani Huayra, which is powered by a 720-horsepower twin tur-bo engine, the fastest car to go around the BBC TV pro-gram Top Gear’s test track. Also worthy of a lingering look will be the P1 McLaren, one of only seven in Can-ada; a 2015 Lamborghini

Huracan LP 610-4, making its debut here; a 2014 Rolls Royce Ghost Majestic Horse Edition, and a 2015 BMW i8, the new electric luxury car.Those with racing in their blood should enjoy the 2015 GT Speed, the fastest Bent-ley ever produced, very rare Weissach Porsche 917K, a Saleen S7R race car, a 1933 Alfa Romeo 6C 1750 GS 6th Series, which is a winner of the Gold Cup at the Concor-so d’Eleganza Villa d’Este in Italy, a 1957 Maserati 200 Si once owned by Franco Cornacchia & Carroll Shelby and one of only 28 built. Also expected are a 1937 Bugatti type 57 and a 1964 revision Buick Riviera ‘Ridler Award Winner’.It’s not all about cars

though. A partnership with Oakridge Centre has produced a fashion pavilion which will stage six shows throughout the weekend – three each day. ‘Casual El-egance’ will be the focus of the first show of the day on the runway at 1 p.m. then ‘Seasonal Silhouettes’ at 2 p.m. and ‘Fashion Forward’ at 3 p.m. Single day tickets are $50 and VIP tickets (19+), which include lunch and adult beverages, are $100 per person, per day.

All-new pony car set to hit the highwayThe all-new 2015 Ford Mustang is now in production and Driveway will be at the much anticipated pony car’s launch next month in California.It goes on sale here later this year, then for the first time in its 50-year history the Mustang will be exported to more than 120 countries next year. The addition of a right-hand-drive Mustang to Ford’s global vehicle lineup will allow the iconic pony car to be exported to more than 25 right-hand-drive markets around the world, including the United Kingdom, Australia and South Africa.Ford boasts that the sixth generation Mustang sets new performance and

dynamics benchmarks for the brand with excellent handling, more precise steering control and enhanced ride comfort. “Mustang is and will continue to be an automotive icon,” said Joe Hinrichs, Ford president of The Americas. “Expanding its availability globally affords our customers around the world the oppor-tunity to have a true firsthand Mustang experience – one unlike any other.”In April, Ford celebrated the 50th anniversary of the original Mustang. In commemoration of this, each 2015 model carry a badge on the instrument panel that includes the galloping pony logo and the words “Mustang – Since 1964.”Mustang’s impact goes well beyond the

more than 9.2 million cars sold in its 50 years of continuous production. It has featured thousands of times in film,

television, music and video games and is the most-liked vehicle on Facebook, with close to eight million likes.

Though the car has been redesigned from the ground up it retains key design elements – including the long sculpted hood and short rear deck – but in a contemporary style.There are more power options available; a 3.7-litre V6 and an all-new 2.3-litre EcoBoost engine join the upgraded V8. The Mustang GT continues with the latest edition of the throaty 5.0-litre V8 – now featuring upgraded valvetrain, new intake manifold and improved cylin-der heads – that yields 435 horsepower and 400 lb.-ft. of torque.The Mustang 2.3-liter EcoBoost engine uses direct injection, variable cam timing and a twin-scroll turbocharger to deliver the performance Mustang drivers expect

with an output of 310 horsepower and 320 lb.-ft. of torque.The new version features all-new front and rear suspension systems. At the front, a new perimeter subframe helps to stiffen the structure while reducing mass, providing a better foundation for more predictable wheel control that benefits handling, steering and ride.At the rear is an all-new integral-link independent suspension. Geometry, springs, dampers and bushings are all specially tuned for this high-perfor-mance application. New aluminum rear knuckles help reduce unsprung mass for improved ride and handling.Prices will be fixed closer to launch.

Going camping, geo-caching, and sitting by the campfi re with his family and friends and of course “Buzz” - his fi rst and foremost best friend, were his favorite past times. After his dad’s passing he said to his mother, “Family is not always blood related - it is for everyone whom you care for and who cares for you.
