Far from just a Third World problem, human trafficking has hit close to home for Langley families MIRANDA GATHERCOLE
Times Reporter
K
Human trafficking is thought of as something that happens only in the world’s poorest countries, but as one Langley mother’s story shows, it’s a serious threat to Canadian youth as well. Miranda GATHERCOLE/ Langley Times
ris started to suspect that her daughter was getting into trouble when she was in Grade 9. Shelby, a straight A and B student at Langley Fine Arts School was suddenly failing her classes, skipping school and hanging out with the wrong crowd. She then began to run away from home to escape the rules of her parents, and would disappear for days at a time. But it wasn’t until a year later when Kris (not her real name) saw the ads on Craigslist that she was forced to admit the truth. Her daughter, age 15, was a victim of human trafficking. Drug-addicted and living on the streets of Surrey, Shelby (whose name has also been changed for her safety) was being forced, through organized crime, to prostitute herself to feed her habit and stay alive. “I realized what she was doing when I found the ads on Craigslist,” Kris said. “Before that we were wondering, because how does a 14-year-old survive on the streets? You hear of kids hopping from friend’s house to friend’s house on the couch, so I thought ‘she has lots of friends, she must be managing.’ But then when you see those ads, it’s in your face. There’s nothing you can do but admit how she is getting by.” Shelby is one of four kids adopted and fostered by Kris. Her birth mom was addicted to hard drugs during her pregnancy. The doctors made it clear that Shelby must never experiment with drugs because she had a high risk of becoming addicted. “She was doing great at the beginning of her Grade 9 year — playing three instruments at the fine arts school, getting A’s and B’s, and doing very well. Then she went and hooked up with the wrong kids, they lured her into experimenting with drugs, and misbehaviour and teenage rottenness,” Kris explained. Each time Shelby ran away, Kris filed a missing person’s report with the RCMP. On one occasion,

Shelby called and left a cell phone number. Kris Googled the number, looking for an address, but all that popped up were Craigslist ads with nude photos and price lists. “I think in the beginning it really was just regular teenage acting out, trying to find where she fits in the world. But then there are these predators out there willing to take advantage of these girls. She’d take off and sit on the streets with no money, no ID, no nothing, but they don’t care. And it’s all based on deception. In the ads it would say she was 19. She was only 15. These guys are just sick,” Kris said. According to RCMP, 800 to 1,200 people are trafficked in Canada annually. Internationally, that number jumps to and 800,000. This isn’t something that just happens in third world countries. This happens in our own backyards, says Langley resident Tara Teng, Miss Canada 2011 and an international speaker on human trafficking and exploitation. “We know that it happens in Thailand. We know that it happens in the Ivory Coast. But here in Langley? It doesn’t connect with what we think and the images that we see,” she said. “I go and speak at schools all the time and I can’t even count how many times a student will stay behind and linger till the end. She waits until all of her classmates leave, waits until her teachers leave, and then she will come up to me with a trembling voice and tears in her eyes saying ‘this happened to me, but I didn’t know what it was called.’ “To them it’s not ‘oh this is human trafficking’ or ‘oh this is forced prostitution.’ They don’t necessarily know the names for these things and because of that they don’t know how to reach out and get help.” The average age of entry into prostitution in Canada is 14 years of age, but kids as young as 11 and 12 are targeted for grooming. “It almost always starts with a young girl meeting a guy. And we think he’s this dark, brooding, Mafia-type guy but they don’t look like that. This is a nice, charming, handsome young man who is fun. She starts to get isolated from her family, from her friends and from her support network that really cares about her,” Teng said. The story tends to be the same, she said. continued, PAGE 12

No-show witness ordered to testify

Farm co-owner failed to appear at mushroom tragedy inquest MONIQUE TAMMINGA Times Reporter
A key witness who was a no-show at the Coroner’s Inquest into the deaths of three Langley mushroom farm workers was located by RCMP on Tuesday night. RCMP Sgt. Peter Thiessen said Thinh Huu Doan, who was part-owner of the now-bankrupt farm, was located in Langley and served documents compelling him to attend court on Wednesday. It isn’t known why Doan, who was subpoenaed weeks ago to testify, didn’t attend the Burnaby court room. “It will be for him to advise the coroner’s court why he did not appear,” said Thiessen. Doan plays a key role in the inquest, as he was the supervisor who oversaw two mushroom composting employees who unclogged the pipe containing the deadly gas that killed three men and severely brain damaged two others four years ago. Worker Ut Tran unbolted the pipe covering to get at a blockage and reached in with a screwdriver to clear the line. Then Tran said something about a strange smell. Doan says he told Tran to leave. But Tran took one step toward a ladder and fell, face down, into 16 inches of waste water at the bottom of the shed. The second man stayed with Tran, while Doan left the shed to get help. In the next few minutes, three other men would enter the shed and be overcome by the fumes. According to Thiessen, the presiding coroner Norm Leibel did not issue a warrant for Doan’s arrest. If Doan is a no-show on Wednesday, it will be up to Leibel to order an arrest warrant. On Tuesday, the lead investigator for WorkSafe BC testified that A-1 Mushroom was a dangerous place to work. The pump house the men died in was destined to be dangerous, given its poor design and confined space. Most of it was built without engineering consultation. Tran, 35, Han Pham, 47, and Chi Wai (Jimmy) Chan died on Sept. 5, 2008 while working at A-1 Mushroom Substratum Ltd. on 16 Avenue. Two other employees have been left with permanent brain damage. One survivor, Tchen Phan, is in a wheelchair and cannot hear, talk or walk . The other, Michael Phan, a Langley father of two, has been in a coma since the 2008 incident. Leibel and a jury will hear evidence from subpoenaed witnesses to determine the facts surrounding these deaths. Farm owner Ha Quan Truong was also expected to take the stand on Wednesday. The jury can not find any legal fault but can make recommendations to prevent future deaths from happening. The inquest is expected to continue until Tuesday.

Township considers split from Metro Vancouver
Dissatisfaction with transportation, service levels leads to talk of separation NATASHA JONES Times Reporter
No RapidBus to Lougheed SkyTrain station from the park and ride in Willoughby, and inadequate bus service, especially in Aldergrove. As one of the region’s high-growth areas, Langley deserves much more for the taxes residents pay for transportation and other Metro Vancouver services, say Township elected officials. Dissatisfaction with the regional and transportation authorities is a common refrain in Langley, and now Langley Township is saying enough is enough. After a lengthy debate on Monday evening, council backed Councillor Kim Richter’s motion “to explore the possibility and option” of forming a new Fraser Regional District. Neighbouring districts from Delta to Abbotsford, and those north of the Fraser River, will be invited to participate. Richter’s motion also seeks talks with the provincial government on the process to pull out of Metro Vancouver and

“I’m somewhat surprised at the speed this is going,” Ward said. Acknowledging councillors’ frustration, Ward said the issue “will make us look like fools if we don’t break away.” Councillor Steve Ferguson reminded council that the agreement with the regional district had originally been only for water and sewer, and he wondered if the motion went far enough. “Why don’t we form our own Langley regional district?” he said, suggesting that Langley could go
solo with its own police force, as well as sewer and water services. “It would cost us less,” Ferguson said. Richter said that “the time for action is now.” She added: “I’m tired of this Marie Antoinette attitude Metro Vancouver has towards Langley. We don’t want cake. We want bread ... and we are paying through the nose.” “Somebody needs to take the initiative. We have been hit so hard by Metro,” Richter said, calling the organization “a booming little empire in Burnaby that thinks it rules the empire. It doesn’t.”
Councillor Bev Dornan persuaded council not to limit the possibility of a merger only with municipalities south of the Fraser, as Richter’s motion had originally stated. Getting on with other regional partners “is what it’s all about,” said Councillor Bob Long. “it’s a very challenging situation that we all face,” he said. “Starting our own club may not be the answer.” With the observation that “the grass is not always greener on the other side,” Mayor Jack Froese commented that there is no harm in asking questions about a new regional alliance.

Guard changing as Cruise-In organizes MIRANDA GATHERCOLE Times Reporter
It’s a changing of the guard. Or as Eric Taylor, the new president-to-be of the Langley Good Times Cruise-In Society, jokingly puts it “the Fords are out and Chevys are in.” This will be the last year presiding president (and huge Ford fan) Riccardo Sestito runs the Cruise-In, before vice-president Taylor (owner of many Chevrolets) takes over. The annual car show, which was named one of the top 10 car shows in North America by Dennis Gage from the TV series My Classic Car, is returning to the streets of downtown Langley on Saturday, Sept. 8. Run completely by volunteers, the event raises tens of thousands of dollars for local charities every year. Taylor came on as a new Cruise-In director at the show’s return last year, but has been involved with the car show for many years, organizing the marketplace. He will begin to handle some of Sestito’s duties this year, before becoming president in 2013. But until the sun sets on the 2012 show, Sestito still has much work to do. Hosting an outdoor party for 100,000 people is no easy feat. And after the successful return of Cruise-In last year (in 2010 it was cancelled), the Cruise-In committee wants to make this year’s show even better. And as always, the organizers hope to beat their fundraising goal from last year and break the $100,000 mark. To date, they have managed to raise well over $1 million for local charities since the car show began in 1997. Last year, $86,000 was donated to the official Cruise-In charities Valley Therapeutic Equestrian Association, Langley Stroke Recovery and Langley Memorial Hospital Auxiliary. Car registration is now open and will run until August. The 2012 registration forms are available at the Chamber of Commerce office, 1-5761 Glover Rd. For more information, call the Chamber at 604-530-6656, visit the Langley Cruise-In Facebook page or visit www.langleycruise-in.com.

Lekstrom delivered
We need competition
ransportation Minister Blair Lekstrom has been as good as his word. When he first learned that transit fare evaders who received tickets did not have to pay them, he vowed the situation would change. He said if legislation was necessary, that’s what he would introduce. And he also said he would do so this spring, not leave it until some vague future date. He’s done all that and more. He’s made the ability to collect overdue fines retroactive for 10 years, and he has ensured that there are a multitude of ways to go after fare cheats — including ICBC renewals, collection agencies and even prohibitions from riding transit. Lekstrom has shown a rare ability to get things done in a forthright manner, without a lot of grand political posturing. This emphasis on results is impressive. This newspaper, and we suspect most Langley residents, totally support the emphasis in getting people to pay the fares they are supposed to pay. This will help the transit system, because those who don’t pay will no longer be seen as being above the law. They won’t discourage those who pay their fares and are responsible citizens. Last year, TransLink Police issued 57,000 fare evasion tickets. Only about 15 per cent were actually paid. Lekstrom estimates that an additional $4 million will be collected, and he says that money will eventually all come to TransLink. That means less urgency in raising taxes and fares, and it also means that riders actually pay for the top quality service they are getting. This will also help TransLink ease its way out of some of its current public relations problems. While TransLink still needs to commit to offering the rapid bus service over the new Port Mann Bridge which many Langley residents are counting on, this will give the agency some additional funds. Hopefully, a clear commitment to bring in the rapid bus service isn’t too far behind. Straight-talking cabinet ministers like Lekstrom are a breath of fresh air. The people of B.C. have been looking for leadership from the provincial government, and unfortunately, it only seems to come in fits and starts. This type of approach to a serious problem is needed in many other areas of government. Lekstrom has set a good example for other members of cabinet, as well as other levels of government.
irst they — the adults in charge — took away ribbons on Sports Day. Then they stopped keeping score in kids’ hockey games. Now Canada’s 56 national sports bodies want to take competition out of other youth games and focus on fun and skills rather than winning. For example, in Ontario they want to change soccer tournaments for players younger than eight to ‘festivals,’ in which no standings would be kept, no MVPs selected, no winners and losers. They even want to mix teams up. Sounds fun. Maybe next time Claude Giroux has a breakaway, he can shoot the puck at Henrik Lundqvist’s chest, then pat him on the head and say, ‘nice save.’ The greatest part of sports is competition, trying your best to win. Not at all costs; that’s why sports have rules. But why bother playing if you’re not trying to win? Friendships form out of a common interest, and a common goal, not shaking hands. That’s sportsmanship, and it already exists. Failure, making mistakes is how we learn — even if just how to cope with that. It breeds desire, builds character, and helps overcome adversity. This new national program, under the guidance of Sport Canada, is not wrong in wanting to focus on skills over winning. Everyone develops at a different rate. But natural ability and individual skill alone don’t win championships or medals. Determination is vital, fuelling the hours upon hours of practice required to perfect the skills necessary to succeed. Even then, intelligence, teamwork and tactics are key cogs, as are risk and luck, timing and circumstance. How do you breed those traits if you take competition out of the picture? Go to an elementary school at lunch hour and you won’t see them practising, but playing games. Ask them the score and the ones truly competing will tell you. Sports, like life, aren’t fair. They are about winning. —Maple Ridge News

Inaccurate claims about spills Editor: I commend your team on the excellent and largely accurate threepart series Oil & Water, regarding the potential increase in crude oil tankers in Vancouver harbour. Unfortunately, the second part examining the effects of a spill contained numerous unchallenged errors by interviewees. Firstly, Rex Weyler’s claim that bitumen hitting the water separates into gases and creates a toxic cloud is sheer fiction. If he meant diluted bitumen (“dilbit”), it is still a misleading statement, in my opinion. Some of the light diluent will evaporate, but it is harmful only if people stay in the area downwind for some time. Significant exposure can cause nausea, headaches, and respiratory problems, and people may need to leave the area, depending on the situation. Over a few days, the fumes dissipate. Like table salt, which is toxic above certain limits, it’s all about the dose. As to the threat of toluene and benzene, their concentration in dilbit is less than one per cent, or one-thirtieth of that in the gasoline you pour into your lawn mower. The oil sinks to the bottom, Weyler claims. Some heavy crudes such as Mexican Maya may sink to the bottom of a fresh water body, but typical Canadian bitumen should not in either fresh water (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency conclusion), or especially in our denser salt water. However, the final result depends on the crudes shipped, and a turbulent fresh water river could cause such problems. Weyler says he based his $40 billion number for an oil spill cleanup “here” by comparing our situation to somebody’s
billion for cleanup and estimated $50 billion compensation (excludcleanup cost for the ing punitive damages) BP offshore oil rig in an extremely cold blowout in the Gulf of and remote area with Mexico. He might as no initial cleanup well compare it to the capability. In my view, cost of a space shuttle Weyler’s $40 billion flight; it’s total apples claim is ridiculous. and oranges.

Teachers do not have to volunteer Editor: There are those upset with teachers for not continuing extra-curricular activities, concluding that those who want to be considered professional need to to do so. Let us follow this logic. Is your doctor any less professional because he or she refuses to make volunteer house calls after office hours? Is your lawyer any less professional because he or she won’t give you free legal advice well after they should be home? How about that mechanic — less professional if they don’t come over and fix your car for free on a Sunday afternoon. Why are teachers less professional if they don’t give of their own free time? What about those teachers who are like many of us, doing volunteer service away from our jobs. Are they any less professional? The
So why has volunteering at schools become the professional standard for teachers? What it has become is the dumping ground for our society? They have had to take on what society no longer is prepared to do. We are told that, without teachers volunteering, kids will not play sports, get hefty scholarships, exercise, participate in theatre, experience camp-outs, graduation parties, cruises, trips overseas, or visits to the parliament buildings. Many businesses will go broke if a teacher doesn’t give up his weekend away from his family. Many kids will go hungry and have no clothing to wear if teachers don’t volunteer. These used to be jobs of parents and other community volunteers. Maybe we should rethink this volunteer gig. Instead of demanding that
teachers give countless hours outside of teaching, we should thank them for the time they do volunteer for us. While the government has chosen to demonize these people, maybe society should just be thankful for what we get, feel guilty to be expecting more, and then expect more from ourselves. Volunteer service does not define a teacher as a professional, any more than it defines the rest of us. This is their way to give back to society as members of our community, and giving back to society is not the sole domain of teachers. You and I could do the same. What are you doing after school on Friday or this weekend? Want to look after 30 kids? Bruce McCloy, Langley
Mystery on 44 Avenue Editor: Mysterious happenings on 44 Avenue in Langley need a solution. My friends own a pleasant five-acre holding. They own a llama, two cats and until a couple of days ago, 18 productive chickens. Now the mystery. The chickens had been allowed the freedom to roam the property, which they did with clucking joy and happy scratching. When the owners awoke to what they expected to be a normal day they found, to their horror, that only four chickens remained. Their immediate and sad conclusion was that a pack of coyotes had been in action. They searched the premises. No remains, no blood and nothing at all but 14 piles of neatly plucked feathers. To my knowledge, no animal painstakingly plucks dead birds before devouring them or stealthily taking them to their lair. A human thief? Very unlikely, as nobody in their right mind is going to chase chickens in total darkness, catch them and painstakingly pluck them prior to leaving. It defies the logic of the owners and certainly befuddles my little brain. What is the answer to this mystery? Mike Harvey, Langley
Looks like an RV park Editor: There are two sides to every story. Al Balogh (The Times, May1) is obviously very upset that he is no longer able to park his RV in his own driveway. I ask him to put himself in my situation. I have not been able to see anything out of my living room window but my neighbour’s RV for over four years. I live in a beautiful subdivision called Derby Hills, but many times this area looks more like an RV park. Some of the homeowners have complied with the new bylaw, but many have not. I do agree with him in that it should be only the Township which is responsible for enforcing the bylaw. It should not rely on neighbours making written complaints about each other. Shame on bylaw enforcement for driving by other offenders in Balogh’s area, and targeting only his home. Janice Valach, Langley
Hall letter strikes chord Editor: Beverly Hall’s letter to the editor (The Times, May 3) pretty much hit the nail on the head for me. I agree fully with most of her points. All the politicians are concerned about is their generous pensions. The corporations are concerned with maximum profits at all and any cost. The environment has taken a back seat to profit. Greed has taken over and it’s not leaving any time soon. I just feel sorry for the next generation that’s inheriting all of this. Stuart Smith, Walnut Grove The Times welcomes letters to the editor.

he B.C. NDP has ramped up its opposition to the proposed Northern Gateway oil pipeline. First the party formalized objections already expressed by NDP MLAs who have spoken at hearings held by the federal review panel along the B.C. coast. Leader Adrian Dix sent an 11-page letter to the panel, then launched an attack on the B.C. Liberal government in the legislature that emphasized the letter’s top objection. Why doesn’t Premier Christy Clark stand up to Ottawa and protest the abandonment of the long-standing “moratorium and exclusion zone” on oil tankers off B.C.’s north coast, Dix and NDP energy critic Rob Fleming demanded.

dent of environmental response for the Canadian Coast Guard Pacific Region. The 1972 moratorium “wouldn’t apply to vessels coming into Canadian ports like Kitimat,” Rodden told The Globe and Mail at the time. The Coast Guard would be the agency legally required to enforce such a tanker ban, if one existed. As I’ve mentioned before, there are legitimate arguments against the Northern Gateway proposal. This hippyfantasy tanker moratorium isn’t one of them. Then there is the hypocrisy and pro-U.S. bias that is so clearly evident in the manipulated B.C. debate. The Northern Gateway pipeline would generate as many as 350 tanker trips each year to and from Kitimat. More than twice that many tankers already sail each year through the Strait of Juan de Fuca, past the Gulf and San Juan Islands. Many are heading to refinery complexes at March Point and Cherry Point in Washington. These supertankers can be seen sailing past Victoria most days. Strangely, this U.S. crude traffic excites no protests. Some of the smaller tankers come in to fill up from the TransMountain pipeline in Burnaby, whose operator is preparing a bid for expansion. This attracts protests organized by people paid to oppose Alberta “tar sands” oil. Where do urban protesters think we get the gasoline and diesel fuel sold at B.C. filling stations? Do they think it’s all made at the little Chevron refinery in Burnaby, the last remnant of refining capacity in southern B.C.? We could use a serious debate about how B.C. handles petroleum. Instead, we see factually inaccurate claims promoted by U.S. interests to attack Canadian crude only. Our opposition politicians and media mostly just go along for the ride.

Bakken gets standing ovation NATASHA JONES
remarked. “He must have left a lasting impression.” Bakken, who was a lawyer with Lindsay Kenney when he was hired by the municipality in December, 1996, has worked with four mayors: John Scholtens, Kurt Alberts, Rick Green, and Froese. Froese calculated that in 15 years as the Township’s CEO, Bakken must have spent more than 700 Monday evenings at council meetings.

Township administrator Mark Bakken received a standing ovation from council on Monday, after Mayor Jack Froese announced that he had been recognized with a Canadian Association of Municipal Administrators (CAMA) award. It recognizes his 15 years as the Township’s top bureaucrat. Bakken actually began his career at the Township when working as a summer student, between 1978 and 1981. “Staff at operations still remember him as a student,” Froese

Central Gordon plans revealed NATASHA JONES Times Reporter
Township planners anticipate that the next stage of expansion in Willoughby will provide 2,000 dwelling units that will draw 4,300 people. Planners have been working on Central Gordon Estates for four years. The newest Willoughby neighbourhood is bordered on the west by 202A/202B Streets, 73A and 72 Avenues on the north, approximately 205 Street to the east, and 68 Avenue to the south. On Monday, May 7, council gave first three readings of a bylaw amending the Official Community Plan. A public hearing will be necessary, although a date for that has not yet been set. The plan provides for a variety of housing, which would include low density (one unit per acre), townhouses and apartments, and higher density single family homes of up to eight per acre. Five percent of single family houses and 10 percent of apartments will be adapted for seniors and the disabled. Although there are no schools within the Central Gordon Estates boundaries, Langley School District staff
have indicated that existing and planned schools in the area will accommodate the anticipated influx of students. According to a report to council, the
vision for the neighbourhood is based on creating a walkable centre at the core of the neighbourhood which will be the “traffic calmed” intersection of 204 Street and 70
Avenue. The walkable neighbourhood will provide easy access to commercial services, environmental areas and transportation nodes.

“They didn’t have a solid, healthy support network. They ended up in a relationship and the guy took advantage of them. “And when you look at it, human trafficking is a couple steps more extreme than a domestic violence situation. It’s just the most extreme you can get with that.” Danny Ferguson, a youth worker with Langley Youth Unlimited, works on the front lines with kids at risk and has seen firsthand youth in Langley being recruited into the sex trade. In one case, a young girl told Ferguson that her boyfriend, who had previously bought her many gifts, suddenly presented her with a bill for $10,000 for everything he had ever bought her. Her only way to pay it back, her boyfriend told her, was to work as an escort for him. “Every kid that we work with is at risk. It doesn’t matter if they come from a family
with a lot of money or if their parents are successful. It doesn’t matter if their needs are met in a physical way. There’s a social poverty where these kids are struggling for friendships and relationships,” Ferguson said. “These recruiters, they understand the physical aspect of this. They target kids with social needs, with emotional needs, who need love and acceptance. “And what’s scary is the pimps that work in Surrey and Vancouver will hire boys who are around the same age, 17 and 18, and then get them to enrol in schools in the Valley. And their whole objective is to get girlfriends and slowly recruit them into this lifestyle.” There is no minimum sentencing for human trafficking in Canada, and it was not included in the Criminal Code until 2005. Since then, there have been nine human

needs long-term solutions and we’re definitely running slow,” she said. “But at least the conversation is starting to happen.” Kris is still trying desperately to find her daughter, who turns 19 this year. Last she heard Shelby was working in the Newton area of Surrey, but that could change overnight. Shelby calls home on occasion, but every time Kris begins to ask too many questions the line is immediately disconnected. “She still won’t disclose where she is, because, of course, if I send anyone looking for her it puts her at risk,” Kris said. “At one point she had said to me ‘you’ve got to get the police off my back because they are going to move me out of province.’ “Literally, if they don’t behave, they will move them to Toronto, they’ll move them wherever.” “She has told me about being threatened with guns and being threatened with being moved and all kinds of things. She told me that they were once holding her in the bathtub because she didn’t bring home enough money. This is just a kid. Even now, she’s only 18. “The worst thing is every time you hear there’s been a body found I’m always thinking ‘was it a male or female?’ And I go through this every time. You’re always worried, is she going to do the wrong thing or say the wrong thing? And then they’re going to be done with her.” ••• There is hope. After Teng and fellow Langley abolitionist Todd Hauptman hosted the event “Wake Up: A Night Against Exploitation” at Township Hall in January, a special task force was created to form an action plan for combating human trafficking at a local level. Made up of Teng, Ferguson, Hauptman, Langley Township Councillor Michelle Sparrow, Langley school Trustee Megan Dykeman and other members of Langley Youth Unlimited and the community, the task force released the final draft of their action plan to

And that’s the primary goal when moving forward with this Langley action plan. The ultimate goal would be to have a trafficked-proof community that has zero tolerance for human trafficking,” ‘Kris’ mother of a sex trade worker she said. According to the task force, the first step to combating working document which will change over human trafficking is educating the public. time, Hauptman said. “We need to talk “Because human about this more.

As a mother of two children, this sort of information is something that I want to be acutely aware of,” Dykeman said. “We need to bring awareness to teachers of warning signs to look for if there is a problem and bring awareness to students at an age appropriate level. How can better education on this problem happen within the school district?” Ferguson has visited many Grade 7 classrooms throughout Langley to discuss what the issues of human trafficking are and its potential dangers. His biggest shock was the number of kids who already knew about it. “Raising awareness is the best thing we can do with kids, but also with their families.

from their families, if you see tension between parents, what’s happening there is that the kid is intentionally being separated from them. A lot of these families are loving and caring, and they want to take care of their kids. But their kids never tell them about their problems,” he said. Parents such as Kris want the public to realize that there are real faces to prostitution and real families that are battling to cope with it. Kris still has two boys living at home, both of whom have special needs. Trying to describe to them where their sister has gone has been heartbreaking. “My boys both know what’s going on. It’s been explained to them, but we don’t talk about it a lot. They miss their sister, but we focus more on the fact that she has an addiction problem more than on the prostitution because I really don’t think that is something that they can grasp,” she said. “These girls aren’t kids without faces. I think a lot of people think that kids who do this don’t have homes to go to; they don’t have families who care, but that’s not the truth. And I think in a lot of cases the kids are told by these recruiters that their families don’t want them back, or they’re dirty, which makes it even harder for them to take a moment and say ‘hey, I do have a family that loves me and cares about me and wants to help me.’ “Hopefully (the task force) will make a difference and will help some kids. But something definitely needs to be done.” Trying to change people’s perceptions of prostitution is one of the foremost issues when it comes to abolishing human trafficking, Teng says. “When you’re talking about prostitution, automatically all these misleading stereotypes pop up. It is taboo. You see it as, ‘oh they’re just dirty hookers.’ They made bad choices, they want to be here, it’s their fault. They don’t get our sympathy. They are the lowest of the low. They’re doing this the easy way. We just dismiss them. We don’t stop to wonder what their stories might be,” she said. “I think that is one really positive shift that has happened over the last 10 years is that we are starting to see them as human beings, and they have stories, and families, and backgrounds and there is a reason why they got there.” Kris still believes there’s a chance that her daughter can escape and rebuild her life. “I just hope for brighter days. I hope that at some point in time she will be able to turn her life around and make better choices. She’s young so there is still a lot of time to do that,” she said. “It’s not going to be an easy lifestyle to pull yourself out of, but I think it can be done. If the support is there and she is not just written off as some junkie adult who couldn’t care less.” For more on Teng’s initiatives, visit her website www.tarateng.wordpress.com.

Family fun day benefits playground There will be a family fun day at North Otter Elementary on Saturday, May 12. All money raised will go towards building a new playground. The school’s PAC is hoping to replace part of the playground that was lost last year to a new drop-off zone. PAC member Jackie Godin is one of the organizers who said there is a need for a proper playground for the more than 200 students who attend North Otter. The event takes place from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at 5370 248 Street. There is free admission. Among the events are a First World War plane replica, fire and police demonstrations including forensic lab, games for every kid, race car display, tons of entertainment, 25 vendors, raffle for prizes like barbecues and a swing set. Live entertainment includes singer Carolyn Stewart and Studio One dancers on stage. There will also be food samples, tons of free goodies including a treat for every game kids play, which includes everything from laser tag to “booger wars,” balloon pops, fishing, and more put on by Games 2 U. The playground is not just for students. It is for all the other children who come to their older siblings’ baseball or soccer games and want to play on a playground. “This playground needs to be safe for every kid,” Godin said. The PAC would also like to see what it can do about the septic box near the playground, which can have a pretty powerful odour on warmer, breezy days.

Canada Day event faces shortfall, seeking sponsors Despite an almost $16,000 shortfall, Langley Canada Day organizers are vowing to keep the Langley Canada Day festival going this year. Early in this year’s planning stages, a shortfall was carried over from last year. An application to BC Gaming was made in the hopes that the shortfall could be alleviated. Due to an error in the application, the society was turned down for funding. In addition, the overall grants for this year were lowered and community sponsors haven’t stepped up with cash. The event is highly supported by inkind sponsorship and organizers are grateful for this, but it needs to pay fees for field entertainment, hire rides and games and pay for onstage entertainment. This requires cash. Organizers knew about the shortfall, but it is the loss of the $10,000 gaming grant which may lead to either a shortened first day (June 30). There is a possibility the first day may be eliminated altogether. “Last year, the festival fell short by $15,387.92 and we had hoped to make it up this year. But unless we get some significant sponsorship, it won’t happen and acts will have to be dropped. “We will have to make cuts as and we aren’t ruling out eliminating one day. We are one of the only two-day Canada Day events in Western Canada,” said board chair Travis Strain. Sponsors are being sought and the call is out for any amount of financial support. Organizers hope that some businesses will issue a challenge to outdo each other in donations. Two local businesses have already stepped up and are challenging other small businesses to do the same. “Many people don’t realize that this is how the festival is supported. Langley Canada Day is not kept alive by government money, but by support from local businesses in the form of both financial and in-kind donations,” added Strain. “Because Canada Day falls on a weekend, it has ramped up the costs,” said Matthew Fearn, a local accountant who is the society’s volunteer treasurer.
Ordinary citizens are being called upon to help out as well. “The public is able to assist by giving a cash donation. Our society is able to issue
tax receipts due to having a Revenue Canada Charitable Number, so there is a benefit to donating,” Fearn said. Organizers want to clear up the mis-
conception thatsome people have. They believe the festival is run by government or paid staff. “This is completely untrue”, said Lilianne
Fuller, media director for the event. “The entire board is made up of volunteers and there is no compensation of any sort for the hours that goes into
planning, organizing and executing a festival of this magnitude.” As more than 50,000 people attended klast year, the board would like to keep the long-
standing two-day format. For more information on how you can help, contact Strain or vicepresident Cheryl Tallman at 604-522-6232.

POWER LINE TREE PRUNING AND HAZARD TREE REMOVALS – LANGLEY When: May 7, 2012 to October 19, 2012 Time: 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Miranda GATHERCOLE/Langley Times
Kwantlen First Nations Brandon Gabriel puts the first splashes of paint on his handcrafted canoe. The images he has drawn tell the story of how the Kwantlen people were created.
Trees are a significant cause of power interruptions. Contact between trees and power lines can also create a severe danger.
Here and Now here next week
Over the next few months we will be pruning and removing trees in the Langley area. Boundaries: North: Highway 1 East: 240th Street South: Fraser Highway West: Glover Road
Kwantlen art exhibit opens Tuesday at museum nel made entirely from Stanley Park cedar that fell during the great winter storm of 2006. The canoe, painted by Gabriel, will be given a proper name at the exhibit’s opening reception. Atkins’ oil paintings also depict the community of the Kwantlen people. Many of her paintings express the Kwantlen’s journey of life and the sacredness of precious resources. Her Salmon painting represents the importance of the salmon industry to Kwantlen people. Here and Now: Contemporary Kwantlen First Nations Art, opens on Tuesday, May 15, 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. The evening’s celebrations will include a full salmon dinner, a blanketing ceremony, and a traditional canoe blessing, which will be the first of its kind for the Kwantlen First Nation in 100 years.
Trees are pruned using the best arboriculture (tree care) practices. Skilled workers employed by BC Hydro are trained in both electrical safety and tree care. Only correct and proper techniques are used to eliminate any safety hazards. For more information about our current work or other vegetation management practices, please call Derek Brown, your area coordinator of Vegetation Maintenance, at 604 854-8466. 3477
The talents of Kwantlen First Nation artists will be in the spotlight when the Langley Centennial Museum presents its newest exhibit, Here and Now: Contemporary Kwantlen First Nations Art. Featuring the work of Brandon Gabriel and Phyllis Atkins, the exhibit will highlight the connection between Kwantlen First Nation’s past and present. Works in the exhibit will explore the diverse methods and inspirations of both artists, and many pieces have particular significance for the entire Kwantlen First Nation. One of the most substantial pieces will be a 25-foot canoe. Over the years, the canoe has travelled down many waterways. It has recently undergone refurbishments, including a new frame, seating, and gun-

Garden party at Fort Gallery Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s almost time to get Up Close and Personal with artists Susan J. Falk and Tony Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Regan. The artists, whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve known one another and worked together for the past 18 years, are sharing wall space inside the Fort Gallery for the next three weeks to present a joint exhibit of their original work. Falk, who met Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Regan, a White Rock artist, through a drawing group and then took classes from him, canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t say enough about her colleagueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fun loving persona and generosity of spirit. â&#x20AC;&#x153;His time and devotion as a teacher, I learned a lot from him. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very nuturing,â&#x20AC;? said Falk. Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Reganâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s section of the exhibit, titled Back to the Garden may refer to the Garden of Eden â&#x20AC;&#x201D; but heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s presented it with a bit of a twist. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am constantly drawing small figures walking, standing, sitting â&#x20AC;&#x201D; male and female. I noticed that the male and female together remind me of
Rhodo Vase by Tony Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Regan the centuries old paintings of Adam and Eve,â&#x20AC;? writes Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Regan, in an artistâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s statement. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Once I started seeing them this way, I couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t shake the image â&#x20AC;&#x201D; so, have you ever wondered what a flamenco dancing Eve would look like? Or a body
building Adam? â&#x20AC;&#x153;All the Adams and all the Eves are actually just of the blossoms of our species, so what would a vase full of Adams or a vase full of Eves look like? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Come and find out.â&#x20AC;? The painters will share wall space inside the small gallery for the next three weeks. Falk, who is known for working on a grand scale, will display a 60â&#x20AC;? x 72â&#x20AC;? piece titled Scarlet Reflections â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a self portrait of the artist with her dog. It will be flanked by a pair of slightly smaller 8â&#x20AC;? x 10â&#x20AC;? plein air pieces. The Up Close and Personal/ Back to the Garden exhibit will hang from May 9 to 27 inside the gallery at 9048 Glover Rd. with an artistsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; reception and opening on Thursday, May 10, from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. Falk will also sell $5 cards and $20 posters of her original artwork, with proceeds going to Big Brothers, Big Sisters of Langley.

‘Our favourite day of the year’ Award honours volunteer spirit Music, food samples, discounts and prizes offered as part of World Fair Trade Day Ten Thousand Villages and Fair Trade organizations around the world invite young and old to join in World Fair Trade Day (WFTD) activities on Saturday, May 12. This year, for the first time, Ten Thousand Villages stores across Canada will be partnering with Canadian Fair Trade Network affiliates to create even greater awareness of Fair Trade. WFTD is an opportunity for adults and children to discover a
world of handicrafts, sample Fair Trade food, play games and hear music at Ten Thousand Villages stores across the country. Store staff, made up largely of volunteers, will be on hand to answer questions and tell stories. “This is our favourite day of the year,” said Olga Nickel, manager of Ten Thousand Villages at 20525 Fraser Hwy. “From people new to Fair Trade to long-time supporters, everyone will have a good time.”
Musician Sam Alviar will perform at 1 p.m., samples of ethnic food, a grand prize draw and special discounts. Ten Thousand Villages, which began in 1946 as one woman’s volunteer project to provide craft sales for women in rural Puerto Rico, has since grown into North America’s largest and oldest Fair Trade organization. Decades of experience working directly with producer groups have reinforced the message that paying fair wages and treating people with honesty, transparency and respect makes a real difference and will continue to do so for generations to come.

James golden once again GARY AHUJA Times Sports
While it may seem like old hat, winning the gold medal year after year, it is just as exhilarating winning a fourth time as it was that first year. That is according to Langley’s Tracy James, who keeps adding to her gold medal collection. The 26-year-old helped Team Canada win gold at the International Cheer Union (ICU) world cheerleading championships in Orlando, Fla. The competition was April 27. James was competing in the co-ed elite category as Canada was up against 15 other countries. New Zealand and Chile rounded out the top three. “It was such an amazing experience,” James said, adding that the support the Canadian team received helped make a big difference. “It was so incredible to walk out on the world stage and see the stands filled with proud Canadian supporters all wearing red and screaming for our team. “The feeling of winning gold is just as exhilarating every year. “You put so much into every routine and the competition gets harder every year so when Canada is called up for the gold, you can’t help but feel an overwhelming sense of accomplishment.” James was one of just five returning veterans who have been on the 24-person squad since the first year.The team has eight females and 16 males, made up of athletes from across Canada. “Our success comes from countless hours of practice before and during our training camp,” James said. “Everyone trains harder every year because we know it is not an easy task to stay on top, especially while other countries continue to improve and push the limits of the sport.” Tryouts were held at the beginning of February, with the team named within a few weeks. The team members reconvened in Toronto on April 18 and trained six or seven hours a day for the next week, all in preparation of a two and a half minute routine. James, who during her competitive days was a member of the Langley Gymnastics Foundation before turning to coaching, has returned to gymnastics after a year hiatus spent working on the cheerleading TV show Hellcats as a stunt double. James, who still lives in Langley, is now coaching at Cloverdale’s Splitz Gymnastics, while also completing her bachelor of business administration, majoring in human resources, at Kwantlen Polytechnic University.

Centaurs off to world championships GARY AHUJA Times Sports
When Nathan Beveridge and Robert Perovich opened Hybrid Athletics last year, their goal was to create a family atmosphere at the Langley gym. And judging by what they saw in Richmond at the Canada West CrossFit regional championships last month, they have to be pleased with their early results. “Everyone here has
bought in as a family and that is what our vision was,” Beveridge explained. “It has come to fruition. “It is cool to see everyone come together.” At the Richmond Olympic Oval two weeks ago (April 27-29), about 30 or 40 gym members showed up to cheer on the CrossFit Fraser Valley Centaurs, who placed second at the Canada West regional event, earning a spot to the world championships this July in California.
Teams consist of three men and three women — and two spares — who compete in the sport. CrossFit is a fitness program designed around real day activities. How it works is that the competitors are given a workout — which changes each time — and are timed in how long it takes to complete. Beveridge describes it as the sport of fitness. Richmond was one of 17 regional sites around the

The Langley United U14 Silver team came up one goal short in their quest for a Coastal Cup championship. The boys soccer squad was on the short end of a 3-2 score against Surrey FC Barca on Saturday in Richmond in the Coastal B Cup championship game. Langley opened the scoring when Riley Peters headed home a cross from Zach Pilch 10 minutes into the game,
but Barca responded with a pair of breakaway goals to take a 2-1 lead at the half. After the lead was extended to 3-1, Pilch converted a Trevor Miller cross to pull Langley within a goal, but they could not notch the equalizer. “We had the goalie scrambling, but we just couldn’t get the tying goal,” lamented coach Rich Smallwood.

Trozzo tops at Kenney Classic Golfer takes top spot at MJT event Jackson Trozzo won the boys’ 13 and under division by six strokes at the Maple Leaf Junior Golf Tour’s Lindsay Kenney Classic over the weekend. The two-day golf tournament was held at Pitt Meadows’ Swan-e-Set Bay Resort. The 13-year-old Trozzo trailed by three strokes after a rain-soaked opening round, but just like the weather turned around on Sunday for some sunny skies, so too did Trozzo,
who bounced back with a solid second round to win by six. In the boys’ 14-16 division, another Langley golfer, 16-yearold Simon Blaker, finished two strokes back of top spot, finishing with a 154. Both golfers play out of Redwoods Golf Course. Courtney’s Logan Yanick — who won the 14-16 division — and Blaker both earned international exemptions for the prestigious East Aurora International Junior Masters in New York, and a a U.S. junior amateur regional qualifier of their choice. Blaker also won the skills award.
Other top result for Langley golfers included Hazelmere Golf Club’s Jesse Reichelt finishing fifth in the boys’ 17-19 division with a 164 while Ryan Saran was eighth with a 173. Redwoods’ Jordan Nielson was 11th. Reichelt also won the long drive competition. In the boys’ 14-6 group, Redwoods golfers Hoon Lee and Greg Webster were tied for 15th and 19th, respectively. Two other Redwoods golfers, Euna Han and Rene Cheng were seventh and eighth, respectively, in the girls’ division.

The Langley Blaze scored runs in every inning as they hammered the visiting North Delta Blue Jays 11-1. The victory, which came on Tuesday night at McLeod Park, was the U18 baseball teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s eighth straight win as they improved to 15-4 in the B.C. Premier Baseball League. The Blaze put up four runs in the first inning and that was more than enough for starting pitcher Marc Andre Habec, who allowed just one run on two hits, while striking out five in four innings of work.

Jr. Blaze sweep Victoria In one game the Langley Junior Blaze showed off their offensive prowess, while in the other, they displayed great pitching and defence. And the end result in both was the same: victories for the U18 Junior Premier Baseball League team. At 8-2, Langley holds a one-game lead in the league. The Jr. Blaze were hosting the Victoria Jr. Mariners on Saturday at McLeod Park. In the opener, Langley trailed 5-2 heading into the bottom of the fifth inning, but struck for seven runs to win 9-5. They took game two by a 2-0 score behind a complete game shutout from pitcher Kyle Ross. Eric Broatch drove in two runs in each of the two games, while Justin Lawrence and Andre Pelletier also had two RBIs in the opener.

should be a powerful offensive force on the right side. Bull scored 30 goals and 57 points last season. One of the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new acquisitions, Matt Messenger, is already paying dividends, as he scored four goals in the loss to the Islanders. Langley should also be helped by three rookies who are making the jump from the intermediate Thunder squad. Brett Dobray led the B.C. Intermediate A League in 2011 and will add scoring punch from the leftside. He already has five goals and seven points in the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s two games.

The home fans get their first chance to catch a glimpse of the Langley Junior Thunder lacrosse team. The Thunder host the Port Coquitlam Saints tonight (Thursday, May 10) at the Langley Events Centre. Game time is 8 p.m. Langley is off to an 0-2 start to the B.C.

Despite being one of the leagueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s youngest squads, the Jr. Thunder qualified for the postseason in 2011 for the first time in six years and they return largely the same squad, losing only three players to graduation. Reegan Comeault, who led the Jr. Thunder last year and was third in league scoring, is expected to rejoin the team once he is done his freshman season at Ohio State. Comeault had 89 points in just 21 games in 2011. So is Brandon Bull, currently with Canisius College in Buffalo, who

CAR CARE & REPAIR Kia launches K9, its all-new flagship sedan Kia’s all-new luxury flagship sedan, the K9, has gone on sale in Korea, introducing Kia to an entirely new segment of the global automotive market. The new rearwheel drive will be launched in a number of key overseas markets starting in the fourth quarter of 2012. With a 5,090 mm overall length and 3,045 mm wheelbase, K9 offers generous front and rear occupant space. Overall width and height are 1,900 mm and 1,490 mm, respectively, which creates a spacious cabin environment. Initially, K9 will be available in some overseas markets powered by an upgraded 290 hp Lambda V6 3.8-litre MPI engine, with a 334 hp 3.8-litre GDI engine joining the global engine line-up next year. The all-new sedan will premiere a range of ad-
vanced luxury features and technologies, including fully adaptive all-LED headlamps, Lane Departure Warning
System (LDWS), radar-based Blind-Spot Detection (BSD), a 17-speaker Lexicon (by Harman) sound system, Smart
Cruise Control (SCC) and an Around-View Monitor (AVM) with four cameras. Every K9 comes with Kia’s all-new eight-speed automatic transmission. The wide spread of gear ratios guarantees brisk acceleration and high-speed refinement, while shift-by-wire (SBW) technology with a joystick control delivers fast, smooth gear changes.

Community feel important when choosing a home
Feeling at home in a low-rise building When you’re looking for a home, feeling welcome in the community is often a big part of the puzzle. While high-rise architecture is popular, perhaps a low-rise development might be just what you’re looking for. “People find comfort in the smaller scale,” says Andrew Emmerson of GBL Architects. “That’s not to say there won’t still be high-rises ... but (low-rises) feel more homey to some.” One of the positive things about living in a smaller development is that you can more easily get to know your neighbours. “You’re sharing amenities with 50 instead of 500,” Emmerson says. “Low-
rise buildings are more personable in that regard.” That idea is being tested with Collection 45, an exclusive development that features 45 studio, one- and twobedroom suites on six floors in the Mount Pleasant area of Vancouver, with the bottom floor holding commercial space. “It’s not your typical cookie-cutter development,” says Emmerson. The neighbourhood is a blend of historic and modern, with restaurants, shopping and recreation all within walking distance. For more information, visit collection45.com or call 604-569-1555.
lend an incredible sense of space and elegance to every home, while the bathrooms are made for relaxation. His-and-hers sinks, glass shower stalls and hand-set tile flooring all combine to make for what really is the perfect bathroom. They also include some special features that are sure to impress, such as a powder room on the main floor and two parking spaces with every home. “Many of our buyers have been asking for a bathroom on the main level,” says Kasahara. “We were able to achieve that in all of these floorplans,
and expect it to be a huge selling feature here at Bishop Creek.” The private garages on every home feature a bonus room off of them, which Kasahara says can be used as extra storage space or a media room. “We call it the ‘Man Cave’,” he says, adding that it’s “the perfect space for a big-screen TV, couch and bar fridge.” The townhomes are built in a Craftsman style, with wood and brick accents and plenty of outdoor space, including private decks and patios. The development itself includes a landscaped park with a playground, and is bordered by the Bishop Creek itself and Harold Bishop Elementary School. The location also offers easy access to Highway 1. The sales centre will open this summer, and buyers will be able to take possession before the next school year starts. Homes at Bishop Creek start in the mid $300,000s. For more information, visit www.bluetreehomes.ca or call 604588-0005.

Finding the perfect home easy at Bishop Creek by Kerry Vital
Bluetree Homes prides itself on being “your friendly neighbourhood builder,” and with their newest development, Bluetree Homes at Bishop Creek, they’re continuing to create a reputation for beautiful homes suitable for any homeowner. “We don’t just build homes; we promise to build your trust, answer your questions and make buying your home relaxed and stress-free,” says Bluetree general manager of sales and marketing Yosh Kasahara. “We aim to deliver an exceptional home-buying experience, from start to finish, and provide the outstanding homeowner care that our company is so well-known for.” Lead by ParkLane Homes’ Chief Operating Officer Ben Taddei, Bluetree is aiming to set the standard for great home-buying experiences. ParkLane
has over 30 years of experience in the home-building market, and was recently the recipient of eight 2012 Greater Vancouver Home Builders’ Association Ovation Awards for excellence in new home design. The 56 townhomes at Bishop Creek come in a variety of two- and threebedroom floorplans, ranging from 1,528 to 1,709 square feet. Located just minutes from Guildford Town Centre, homeowners are able to live in a quiet family-friendly neighbourhood while still being close to everyday amenities. Surrounded by parkland, the homes at Bishop Creek are full of the beautiful amenities that Bluetree is known for, including stone countertops complemented by a hand-set tile backsplash, stainless-steel appliances and shaker-style wood cabinetry with brushed nickel hardware in the kitchen. The nine-foot ceilings and laminate hardwood flooring on the main floor
“
We don’t just build homes; we promise to build your trust, answer your questions and make buying your home relaxed and stress-free,” says Bluetree general manager of sales and marketing Yosh Kashara.
