Order of B.C.
Awards go to a man who
helped build Richmond, and
one who put it on the map
by Matthew Hoekstra
Staff Reporter
Richmond developer and philanthropist Milan Ilich
and Olympic CEO John Furlong are among those who will
be awarded the Order of B.C., the province announced
Friday.
The award recognizes excellence and achievements of
British Columbians, and is the highest honour awarded
by the provincial government.
Ilich, a longtime Richmond resident, has built infra-
structure across the province, has advanced professional
and amateur sports and supported numerous charitable
causes over the years.
Furlong is one of Canada’s most influential sport leaders
and the man behind the team that organized and delivered
the 2010 Olympic Winter Games.

Forest fires bring

hazy skies to region
by Jeff Nagel
Black Press
Smoke wafting here from
Interior forest fires has triggered
an air quality advisory for Metro
Vancouver and the Fraser Valley
Regional District.
Laurie Bates-Frymel, air qual-
ity planner with Metro Vancouver,
said air quality has deteriorated
due to smoke from wildfires to the
north and east.
Elevated levels of fine soot have
been detected at monitoring sta-
tions across the Lower Mainland,
particularly around Hope,
Chilliwack and Abbotsford.
“Because the particulate mat-
ter concentrations are elevated in
the eastern regions of the Fraser
Valley, we believe it’s coming down
the valley from Whistler and the
Interior fires,” Bates-Frymel said.
Some smoke is coming down the
Harrison Lake valley from the Jade
Mountain fire, she added.
The advisory was issued at 3 p.m.
Wednesday.
By then, Bates-Frymel said,
showers in the forecast and more
atmospheric mixing should bring
improvement – barring worsening
fire activity.
“Things are somewhat uncertain
when it comes to forest fires, so
we’ll keep our eyes on the skies.”
For current Air Quality Health
Index readings see www.bcairqual-
ity.com/readings/
Residents are advised they can
reduce their exposure by avoiding
strenuous outdoor activities.
Infants, the elderly and those
with underlying conditions like
heart or lung disease are consid-
ered most at risk.
Anyone with symptoms like chest
discomfort, shortness of breath,
coughing and wheezing is advised
to follow a health care provider’s
advice.

An inquiry into the decline of sock-

The commission suggests pre-

questions: What is your vision for
the sustainability of Fraser sock-

future of Fraser sockeye; what are

Lock out thieves this summer
Summer is here and police are issu-
ing tips to help residents avoid being
victims of thieves.
“Thieves like the sunny weather just
as much as anyone else and will take
advantage of open doors & windows”
says Cpl. Sherrdean Turley of the Rich-
mond RCMP.
Richmond RCMP would like to pro-
vide the community with a few tips to
assist in making homes less attractive
to thieves and more safe in general:
•Store valuables out of sight, pref-
erably in a safety deposit box or per-
sonal safe. Having items left on the
counters or on dressers visible from
the outside attracts attention.
•Have a top quality dead bolt in-
stalled on your doors and keep them
locked even when you are at home. If
you are renting, insist that a top qual-
ity dead bolt be installed.
•Secure all sliding windows and
patio doors with anti-lift or anti-slide
devices.
•Lock your doors and close your
windows even if you will be out for
only a short period of time.
•Install a peep hole in your door
that has a wide angled view and don’t
leave notes on your door indicating
that you’re out.
•If you are planning on going away
on holidays invite a trusted neigh-
bour or close friend to park on your
driveway so it appears that someone
is home. Ask this person to collect
any newspapers or flyers that may
appear on your doorstep and discon-
tinue your paper delivery until you
return. Have your mail brought in as
well. Placing timers on your radio and
interior lights will also make people
believe that someone is inside.
•Install motion sensor lights on the
exterior of your home and check to
see that these lights are functioning
properly on a regular basis. The exte-
rior lighting of your home should also
be maintained.
Richmond RCMP would like to en-
courage the community to be vigilant
for any suspicious activity in your
neighborhood. To report suspicious
activity, call Richmond RCMP at 604-
278-1212 or 911 if it is an emergency.
music festival goes
Sunday in Steveston
by Matthew Hoekstra
Staff Reporter
Chanel Stasiuk is honest, if noth-
ing else.
Last summer, she performed at
country music’s biggest show-
case in Western Canada—Merritt
Mountain Music Festival—before
headliner Kenny Chesney took to
the stage. The 15-year-old doesn’t
take long to describe the feeling of
playing the same venue as some
of her country music idols.
“Terrifying,” she says, in an inter-
view outside the Gulf of Georgia
Cannery, where she performs
Sunday. “But it was also really
cool, and I learned so much just by
watching them.”
Stasiuk is one of six acts sched-
uled to perform at the third annual

Commercial seiners and gillnetters will initially

“We’ve objected to the opening until there’s a

Watch Salmon Society executive director Craig Orr.
Sto:lo fishery adviser Ernie Crey said he’s also
concerned DFO is moving too fast to let com-
mercial boats take sockeye, particularly given
the notorious inaccuracy of preseason forecasts
in recent years.
“These things worry me,” he said. “I don’t see
what the problem would have been to hold off for
three or four more days to see what’s happening
to the summer run before jumping in the water.”
Federal salmon policy generally means aborigi-
nal bands along the Fraser also get to catch
salmon to sell when there’s enough sockeye to
allow general commercial openings.
The economic opportunity fisheries are in addition

Honours well
deserved
S
ince the inception of the Order of B.C. in
1989, 287 British Columbians have been
honoured with the distinction.
Now 15 more deserving residents of our province
will receive the award. Among them are two truly
worthy gentlemen: Milan Ilich and John Furlong.
It’s a rare and special individual who gives back as
much as Milan Ilich.
For years, he has generously helped to support
various community projects. A $1 million dona-
tion from the Maureen and Milan Ilich Foundation
kicked off a fundraising campaign in 2007 that led
to the Richmond Hospital acquiring a new Magnetic
Resonance Imaging machine and CT scanner, both
located inside the medical imaging centre named in
their honour.
But Ilich’s generosity dates back much further. For
years he has supported the arts, sports and other
worthwhile endeavours. In 1988 he helped to save
pro soccer by purchasing the Vancouver Whitecaps,
then a member of the Canadian Soccer League. He
later helped to bring the Western Hockey League
back to Vancouver by investing in the Giants.
Through all his philanthropic work, Ilich has always
retained a humble nature and doesn’t overlook the
little guys. His foundation recently gifted the fami-
lies left homeless due to a Knightsbridge townhouse
fire $15,000.
Ilich’s nature of giving back isn’t lost on Furlong.
Here’s a man who cared so much about his commu-
nity, province and country, that he brought the sec-
ond biggest sporting event in the world to town.
Furlong has a passion for athletics and a passion
for building positive communities through a can-do

Washing the car is best
done at home
Editor:
Re: “Car wash vs. garden hose,”
Andrea Phillpotts, July 31.
Ah, that often quoted and ex-
aggerated 110 gallons of water
wasted washing your vehicle at
home. At five to 10 gallons per
minute with the average hose and
nozzle, that works out to some-
thing between 11 and 22 minutes
of spraying with the hose, which
the average home car wash would
come nowhere to use.
I have never seen anyone wash
their vehicle without a shutoff
nozzle, so I really cannot agree
with the 110-gallon statement.
Let’s tally it up using 7.5 gallons
per minute:
•2 gallons for the bucket with the
biodegradable soap;
•7.5 gallons to wet the whole
vehicle down (one minute, even
though it takes me less time);
•7.5 gallons to rinse the upper
part of the vehicle after soaping
with a sponge;
•7.5 gallons to rinse the lower
part of the vehicle as the washing
is complete.
Seems to me that totals up 24.5
gallons, a far cry from the 110 gal-
lons Andrea quotes, and falls about
in the middle of the amount of wa-
ter she quotes for the car washes.
And of course the water left in the

Transit fare gates need to go in sooner
Editor:
In 2009, 24,000 people were caught
riding the transit system without hav-
ing paid their fares, including 550 fare
cheats on the Canada Line in its first five
months of service.
These are appalling statistics, espe-
cially when you consider these are only
the people caught during the rare occa-
sion of a TransLink fare check. I hear

Thankfully, in part to that consistent
pressure, TransLink will install turnstiles
on all rapid transit lines by the spring of
2013, spurred on by funding from the
B.C. government. But 2013 is still a long

Among other proposed “improvements” at
South Arm Park, construction of a lighted two-

addition to nightly basketball, the facility will be
used for ball hockey and outdoor concerts.
I was approached while walking in South Arm Park
by Eve Rollet de Darantes, who is heading up the
petition to stop the proposed changes in the park. I
was pleased to sign on. The “new vision” for South
Arm Park is to include additional lighting, more jog-

artificial turf. The project is a stark example of urban

but bustling organization.
The Youth Education,
Employment and Empowerment
Services, known fondly as Y.E.S.,
is a complimentary program for
newcomers to Canada who are
between the ages of 15 and 25.
The year-old program has grown
consistently and is currently in its
third intake of participants.
What can young immi-
grants expect to find at Y.E.S.?
Participants commit to a full-time
program for 18 weeks. They
receive employment training, go
on cultural excursions and learn
about post-secondary options.
The 18-week program is funded
entirely by the provincial govern-
ment’s Welcome BC initiative; it
is absolutely free for participants.
Youth who need the extra English
language support are encouraged
to attend an extra hour long ESL
class each morning.
