It's outdated. His wife passed away not too long ago.

Val and his wife now live on 20 peaceful acres a few miles north of Port Alberni.
“We first came to the Alberni Valley in 1958 because Renate’s parents had moved here. We liked what we saw and visited Vancouver Island summer after summer with children and then grandchildren, finally retiring to this acreage. It’s a wonderful area with easy access to oceans and back country. I cherish my friends in Port Alberni and feel thoroughly at home here. I have travelled a lot, but Port Alberni is special.”
The couple have geese, chickens and rabbits (for the pot) and three dogs, while a neighbour uses most of their meadowland to graze beef cattle. They also have multitudinous European vines and Val makes about 200 bottles of wine a year. They grow their own fruit and vegetables: peas, beans, potatoes, garlic, leeks, cucumber, quince and pears.
The measure of a man is not how much power he has, it's how he wields it.
