Road rage killer wants sentence overturned

Langley dispatch eavesdrops during robbery Young women arrested while trying to get away in a taxi

Brent Parent, convicted of the 2008 hit-and-run death of Silas O’Brien, has filed an appeal

Just when the O’Brien family thought they could move on from what has been a terrible nightmare since the unnecessary hit and run death of their son Silas, they now are dealing with news that Brent Parent has filed an appeal to his sentence. Parent not only wants his sentence overturned, he wants his conviction overturned as well for the 2008 hit and run death of 21-year-old Silas O’Brien. Parent, 43, filed an application with the Court of Appeal on June 4. He is currently Silas behind bars. O’Brien In May, a Supreme Court judge sentenced the Langley man to five and a half years behind bars and a 12-year driving ban. In front of a full courtroom in New Westminster, Judge Terence Schultes said he wanted to strike a balance between the Crown’s request to see Parent go away for eight years and the defense’s suggestion of three to four years. He also hoped that Parent would take advantage of anger management counselling that will be made available to him in jail. After Parent was sentenced, O’Brien’s father Rodger spoke to the media, saying the sentence was what he expected. Parent has 64 driving convictions and five driving suspensions. O’Brien said at the time that he didn’t think Parent would appeal the sentence.

Members of the Langley Gymnastics Foundation create a perfect pyramid at the Lift-Off to London celebration at the Langley Events Centre on Saturday. The event, which featured sports demonstrations, entertainment and athlete autographs, honoured the Fraser Valley athletes and coaches heading to the Summer Olympics in London.

A 19-year-old Langley woman and 25-year-old North Vancouver woman are facing robbery charges after a fairly violent robbery at a Willoughby tanning salon that was overheard by a Langley dispatch operator on Thursday. At around 4 p.m., two young women entered a tanning salon in the 8500 block of 200 Street and approached the receptionist. The women discussed the various tanning packages available and then they asked to see the tanning beds. After they viewed the beds, the two left the store. The receptionist felt their behavior was somewhat suspicious so she took some time to review the surveillance footage from the store and discovered one of the two women had shoplifted some earrings while standing at the front counter. The receptionist then called police to report the theft, said Langley RCMP. While on the phone, one of the two women reentered the store yelling and screaming, carrying a large knife above her head. continued, PAGE 4

165 Township employees making more than $75,000 MONIQUE TAMMINGA Times Reporter

While Township council grapples with receiving a double digit pay increase amidst a struggling world economy, municipal employees continue to see their wages climb. As required in the Financial Information Act, salaries that exceed $75,000 must be disclosed publicly.

Toews in City to talk policing

MONIQUE TAMMINGA Times Reporter

Langley City Mayor Peter Fassbender believes the RCMP will be more accountable for the bad apples in their ranks, with proposed changes to the RCMP Act. Federal Public Safety Minister Vic Toews was in Langley last week to discuss RCMP accountability. “He met with myself, Darryl Plecas, the head of the Police Complaints Commission and representatives for Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts,” said Fassbender. Plecas is the director of the centre for criminal justice research at the University of the Fraser Valley. “Toews was here to ask our opinion of the changes to legislation. My initial review shows that signing with the RCMP is a good thing.” He is confident that problem officers can be dealt with much quicker under the enhanced act. “Up until now, the RCMP Act has pre-

vented swift action,” he said. Shamed RCMP officer Monty Robinson is still on the RCMP payroll after being convicted for obstructing justice in a crash that killed a young motorcyclist. He is also facing a trial for committing perjury in the inquiry into the tasering death of Robert Dziekanski where he was the senior officer. Under the new Act, the RCMP commissioner will be able to get rid of bad apples, said Fassbender. “But with that, he needs to run a tight ship,” he urges. “Officers on the streets are doing a first class job, but where things can improve is in the management of the RCMP.” He believes the RCMP reputation has been damaged with female officers filing a sexual harassment class action lawsuit and recently the transfer of disgraced Edmonton Sgt. Don Ray to B.C. “Unless we make systemic changes, the public won’t change its perception.” Toews wanted B.C.’s opinion on Bill C-42,

the proposed Enhancing RCMP Accountability Act. Fassbender represented B.C. municipalities in contract talks with the RCMP and was criticized by a few mayors for the outcome, which was not what municipalities signed up for. Many mayors, including Watts, were outraged when it was found out that the RCMP didn’t disclose all the costs cities would incur with signing the new contract. There are still a few cities debating about not using the RCMP in the future for this reason. The concern mayors have repeated through the process is they are happy with the service RCMP officers provide, but the costs and accountability of the force is not manageable. One of those concerns is the cost of the new $1.2 billion E Division headquarters in Surrey. The headquarters will include a mess hall, which will allow officers to drink when they get off shift. It will be used for a variety of social events.

Fire could have damaged adjacent building NATASHA JONES Times Reporter

One side of a duplex that was only feet away from the MTF Price Matters store in Murrayville was heavily damaged by fire on Saturday. Both sides of the duplex, situated at

22617 Fraser Hwy., had been unoccupied for more than a year. The fire, which was noticed a few minutes before 7 p.m., was likely caused by someone who was trying to strip the building of wires, said Township fire department spokesman Bruce Ferguson. The culprits were not inside the duplex

when firefighters arrived, he said, adding that the building had been boarded up for some time. The west side of the duplex is only feet from the MTF building. “It is very close to MTF, and if it (fire) had got hold, it could have caused damage” to the discount grocery store, Ferguson said.

Neighbour helps police after break-in An observant neighbour is being credited by police for helping them arrest two men who had broken into a Brookswood home moments beforehand last Tuesday afternoon (July 3). Around 2:30 p.m., a Brookswood resident called police to report a suspicious car parked in a neighbour’s driveway. Police arrived at the residence to find the home had been broken into and the vehicle had left. Another officer en route to the dispatched call caught sight of the suspect vehicle turning onto 212 Street from 40 Avenue. The vehicle was located abandoned a short time later on a property near 212 Street and 42 Avenue. Residents in this area told police the suspects were running southbound through Langley Fundamental Middle School yard and jumping the fence into the green space near 213 Street. Air Two and Lower Mainland Police Dog Services were able to attend and successfully tracked the two suspects as they were about to enter the yard of a home in the 4000 block of 213A Street. The two men, aged 42 and 44, both of Vancouver, were arrested and police will recommend charges of breaking and entering with intent. The road, 40 Avenue, was closed for less than 30 minutes during the pursuit of these men. “These two suspects were taken into custody as a direct result of police and community working together,” said Langley RCMP spokesperson Cpl. Holly Marks. She reminded good neighbours to take note of suspicious vehicles at odd times of day where they know no one should be home. “If you are going away for a longer period of time, make sure you tell your neighbours so they keep a closer eye on your property. Without that first call to police, this break and enter would likely have gone unnoticed until the homeowner returned at the end of the day,” she said. “This investigation serves as a tremendous example of how all our integrated services and community can work together to keep our neighbourhood safe,” Marks said.

Warrant out for McLean Langley RCMP has an arrest warrant for Keenan McLean, who is currently wanted for possession of a controlled substance for the purpose of trafficking. The warrant relates to an investigation by Langley drug section in March 2011. At that time, police Keenan allege McLean was McLean arrested with a large quantity of cocaine. Since that time he has failed to appear in court and is now wanted to answer to these allegations. McLean is 38 years old, approximately 5’11,” 160 pounds with short brown hair and blue eyes. Anyone with information that might assist in the location and arrest of McLean is asked to call Langley RCMP at 604-5323200. Should you need to remain anonymous, please call Crimestoppers at 1-800222-TIPS.

In court, Parent said he was very sorry for “ruining a lot of people’s lives” but then asked that the judge not put him away for a “long time.” “We would like to put this all behind us now,” said O’Brien of the court proceedings. He had hoped the sentence sent a message to Parent.

The O’Briens are suing Parent for the death of their son. That civil case has not yet gone through the courts. In the early morning hours of March 13, 2008, O’Brien, and his two best friends were on their way from Abbotsford to the Seattle airport, on their way to their first vacation in Hawaii. Parent, who was driving a diesel Ford F350, became enraged when he thought

She demanded the victim give her everything, including her own purse, phone and money from the till. Once the items had been turned over, the employee was ordered to the ground. The female robber ran from the store to her waiting friend and the two fled on foot, said Langley RCMP spokesperson Cpl. Holly Marks. Since the clerk was on the phone with Langley dispatch listening to the robbery take place, police were en route

immediately, said Marks. Dispatch operators called nearby businesses and provided them with descriptions of the two women, asking that they report to police if the two suspects were seen. A short time later police received a call from one of these businesses reporting they had seen two females matching the descriptions getting into a cab nearby. Dispatch made contact with the taxi company to find out the location of the cab, however the company

encountered a language barrier with their driver, said Marks. A Punjabi speaking Langley RCMP officer made contact directly with the driver and was able to obtain their location, unbeknownst to the driver’s occupants. Langley officers stopped the cab in the 18600 block of 88 Avenue in Surrey and two women were arrested without incident, said Marks. Shianne Halls, 19, of Langley and Ashli Sylvestre, 25, of North Vancouver both stand charged with one count

They were held in custody over the weekend and were scheduled to appear in court on Monday. “The apprehension of these two women can be directly attributed to the positive partnership between police and the business community,” said Marks. “Businesses watching out for each other and willing to report suspicious activity to police stops crime in its tracks, or in this case, in a taxi.”

Betty McClurg passes away at 80 Betty McClurg, longtime executive director of Langley Family Services, passed away on June 24 at the age of 80. She was a very active member of the Langley community in her 16 years as executive director of the social services agency, from 1980 to 1996. She championed additional social services in Langley as the community grew and was an advocate for people on limited incomes, new immigrants and children and youth. She was a lifelong social justice advocate. A longtime Surrey resident, she was elected to Surrey school board twice, serving from 1970 to 1974. She was elected as part of the For All

Surrey Team (FAST), a group of NDP members who banded together to seek election to Surrey council and Surrey school board. She was an honourary life member of the NDP. Her husband Ron, who passed away in 2008, was also a FAST candidate and together they worked on behalf of many candidates over the years. “She was always very involved in politics, and was campaign manager for the Surrey NDP campaigns on many occasions,” her son Steve said. “I learned everything I know about campaigns from my mother.” Steve went on to work with the NDP in a number of capacities. Betty McClurg also was a member of the

Universities Council and member of the board of Licensed Practical Nurses. She is survived by son Steve and his wife Sharon Kurtz, daughters Arlie (Rick Hastie) and Meredith (Don Keillor), three grand-

Three teens arrested after spate of car break-ins in Fort Langley area Three teens were arrested and one 17-year-old had the Mazda he was driving impounded, after people started calling police about young men hanging around parked vehicles in Fort Langley. At approximately 4 p.m. on Monday, July 2, Langley RCMP received a report of two men checking door handles of vehicles in the area of Billy Brown Road and Muench Trail in Fort Langley. Callers indicated the two men were likely associated with a black Mazda. Police arrived in the area and were able to quickly identify the vehicle, occupied by three men. Two of the individuals matched the description provided and the officer noticed a variety of items inside the vehicle. The driver, a 17-year-old from Surrey, who was suspected of consuming liquor was issued a 12-hour suspension and a number of violation tickets. The Mazda was impounded. The other two passengers were 18-year-olds from Langley. Police may also recommend charges relative to the stolen property once the investigation is complete, said Langley RCMP spokesperson Cpl. Holly Marks. Langley RCMP were able to return some property to local residents where a name or phone number was present on the item. But there are still a number of items not yet returned to their rightful owner, including: ❒ prescription glasses; ❒ compact discs; ❒ car cell phone chargers; ❒ Apple earbuds; ❒ a knife; ❒ golf balls; ❒ a measuring tape; and ❒ a variety of USB cords. Some of these items are pictured at langley. rcmp.ca.

Langley wildlife rescue society set to hold its annual fundraiser MONIQUE TAMMINGA Times Reporter

Critter Care volunteer intern Rick Kuijpers holds an emaciated coyote cub with care as he tries to give him liquid minerals and electrolytes through a syringe at Critter Care wildlife rehabilitation centre on Wednesday. The four-week-old cub came into the centre just a day before and his prognosis doesn’t look good, said Kuijpers.

Fawns and young raccoons are among the orphaned wildlife that have found sanctuary at Critter Care Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre in South Langley. Visitors this weekend will also be able to see a young sea otter. The two-day open house fundraiser will include live entertainment and fun activities for children.

Massive Sale Any Tree, Any Size

Cash donations, paper products, plastic bags gratefully accepted This year 16 bear cubs were released back to the wild. While the centre is closed to the public most of the year, Critter Care opens its gates to the public for two days this Saturday and Sunday, July 14 and 15, offering a unique opportunity to see a working rehabilitation centre up close and personal, including viewing the hilarious antics of baby raccoons, fawns, sea otters and more from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. each day. There is plenty of entertainment for young and old as well. The work at Critter Care is never-ending. Much like with a newborn, most babies need to be bottle fed every two hours if they come in very young. Last week, two otters came in from Maple Ridge at only a week old. They will be bottle fed until 12 weeks, when they will start to swim and eat fish. As The Times was interviewing Critter Care founder Gail Martin, a conservation officer dropped off an orphaned fawn. She was quickly checked over

and introduced to the other two fawns in the deer enclosure. One of those deer, Fae was rescued at Brae Island two weeks ago. Flooding separated the young fawn from her mother. She was abandoned. She has mange but intern Lisa Kril has been treating her with an antiparasitic and it’s almost all gone. she said. All three will be ready to be re-released to the wild in late August. Located in South Langley’s Campbell Valley Park, the centre takes in hundreds of native mammals a year, including fawns, beaver, sea otters, coyotes, raccoons, skunks, bobcats, squirrels and bear cubs. Gail Martin, executive director and founder, began taking in orphaned raccoons in the 1980s. Now the centre is run by a collective of volunteers and interns. Run on donations, the funds raised from the open house and donations go to purchasing things like specialized baby formula for the busy spring and

summer baby seasons. This formula costs the society $25,000 a year and can’t be bought in Canada. Formula, vaccines, medical supplies and specialized foods — like fish for the otters — cost Critter Care around $60,000 per year. Critter Care has been taking in orphaned bears since 2004, returning more than 75 bruins back to the wild so far. The public is invited to come out for a guided tour of the animals and enjoy live entertainment from Paws-2-Dance, First Nations drummer, dancer and storyteller Randy Tait as well as lots of fun for the kids including jump castle, dunk tank, pony rides, face painting and visits with Township firefighters and their fire truck or RCMP officers and their patrol car. Critter Care is always happy to accept paper products like paper towels and toilet paper and large plastic bags. Critter Care is located at 481 216 St.

The cost of housing

Enjoy the sunshine, wisely

H

ousing sales are steady in the Fraser Valley, even as they seem to be in a bit more of a decline in Metro Vancouver. That’s the story of June real estate sales from the two real estate boards — Fraser Valley, which covers Langley, and Greater Vancouver. Declines in sales activity and prices are more marked in Greater Vancouver, but as neighbourhoods and Lower Mainland cities are so different, it is hard to paint with too broad a brush. However, there are a few basic trends which seem to be emerging. One is that, despite low interest rates, people seem to be unwilling to pay any more for housing. Prices have been going up and up for the past decade, and are now at the point where many working people simply can’t afford to buy. This applies in single-family residential neighbourhoods in Langley just as much as it does on the west side of Vancouver. Another trend is an inability to qualify for a mortgage. The federal government has tightened up the amortization period for homes requiring Canada Mortgage and Housing mortgage insurance — it is now 25 years. Even with low interest rates, that means bigger monthly payments. When prices are high, and most people aren’t seeing wage increases, that means some people simply can’t get into the market. A third trend is more intangible, but nonetheless valid. People have a sense that the economy isn’t doing nearly as well as it could, and even positive economic news does not entice them to go out and borrow a great deal of money. Home construction, renovation, real estate sales and businesses catering to homeowners together account for a huge portion of Langley economic activity. Any significant downturn in housing construction and sales will have a major effect on many people in Langley — even those who are not in the market for a new house. It should be the goal of governments at all levels to make home ownership as easy as possible for as many people as possible. People who own their homes have a real and tangible stake in their community, and this in turns fosters a better sense of community and more involvement with others. If lower prices help more people to eventually buy homes, that’s a good thing.

lthough it failed to come in time for the Canada Day long weekend, and at times it appeared it was never coming, summer appears to have finally made its way to the Okanagan after all. After suffering through twice the usual amount of rain in June, not to mention lower-than-average temperatures and flooding concerns, many of us will be rushing to area lakes and parks this weekend to begin the summer fun on the run. And that’s understandable, not to mention partly why we live in the Okanagan. Enjoy. But as we soak up that formerly AWOL thing called the sun, we would be wise to keep safety in mind. And that begins with not rushing so much, possibly thinking that summer was so delayed and lasts such a short time that we better enjoy it while it lasts. Traffic is bound to be up as sunseekers find their way out of their cocoons and onto area highways, so obey speed limits and patience is always a virtue when it comes to driving in the Okanagan. Pack the sunscreen for your pasty, white skin and you also might need some mosquito spray as well, due to high water this year. And, of course, be wary of fastmoving creeks and rivers, especially with children, and boaters need to control their wake during these highwater times. Not to mention watch for a higher amount of debris in the area lakes due to increased water levels detaching branches and logs from the shorelines. Certainly get outside and enjoy all the Okanagan has to offer on a sunny weekend. We all deserve it for surviving such a dreary spring.

Coyotes have taken over territory Editor: Re: “Share the planet with wildlife,” (letter, The Times, July 3). The letter writer’s heart is in the right place, but not her brains. The young lady who complained that we have invaded the coyotes’ territory should do some research before speaking.

The coyote was originally an animal of the Mexican desert and, beginning about one century ago, began expanding its range north, west and east. It is now on the Atlantic as well as Pacific coast. I can remember when the first of them appeared in Fraser Valley, and the people who

shouted “impossible” at that time. Good luck to them but, unlike your correspondent (whom you should have corrected), I say “Greetings, Stranger.” El hombre lobo. Paul St. Pierre, Langley

Mary BOCKES/submitted photo

Four young coyotes play in Langley City.

Teachers stand up for more education funding Editor: I am writing regarding the insulting “We Say” editorial of July 3, regarding the B.C. Public School Employers Assocdiation/B.C. Teachers Federation agreement. The editorial failed to outline any of the issues that are important not only to educators, but to the public. It characterized the dispute as about “demands for exorbitant wage increases and time off for the flimsiest of reasons,” and completely omitted the fact that government has taken $3.3 billion out of education over the last decade, resulting in severe underfunding and lack of services for our most vulnerable students. Being robbed of the right to bargain class size and composition was the linchpin of the dispute for teachers, but since the BCTF was never allowed to put the issue on the table,

the issue was seemingly invisible to the public. Ironically, the dispute was only ever centered around wages in the eyes of the media, with every newscast echoing “15 per cent demand,” when in fact it was an opening bargaining position that was dropped back in the early winter when the BCTF announced it was willing to move on all issues on the bargaining table. The government refused to make any similar concessions and instead proceeded with legislating rather than negotiating through Bill 22. The editorial paints the government as being only at fault for letting “this dispute drag on for far too long,” as though it would be advisable for a government to have more powers than denying its citizens the right to bargain or strike.

If you want to characterize the dispute accurately, you must include the fact that the B.C. Supreme Court itself has ruled that the government has acted unconstitutionally towards teachers. It was given a year to fix the situation and to allow teachers to once again be allowed to discuss class size and composition, and that year has come and gone with no effort on the government’s part to abide by the Supreme Court decision. The conditions that affect teachers affect students and families too. I am disappointed in The Times. People should care what happens to public education and stand up for it, rather than vilify the people who actually do. G. Myles, Langley

Editor: The welcome but unexpected contract settlement reached with the B.C. Teachers Federation means parents can now breathe a small sigh of relief for the coming school year. However, with a provincial election less than a year away, it’s fair to wonder what Adrian Dix and the NDP would have done, or would do, if they were in government and negotiating with the BCTF. Unfortunately, Dix and the NDP appear to have taken a vow of perpetual silence on this subject (and on many others as well) and Dix has repeatedly refused to say what the NDP would have done, or would do, BCTF-wise. This is poor form for a political leader because it doesn’t provide the pub-

lic with any way to gauge the merits of the approach an NDP government under Dix would take. Fortunately, the not-so-distant past provides us with a pretty good idea how Dix would likely go about negotiating a BCTF contract, because when he was NDP Premier Glen Clark’s Chief of Staff in the dying days of the NDP regime of the late 1990s, Dix helped orchestrate a notoriously one-sided “sweetheart” deal with the BCTF. Although the contract was sold to the public as a fiscally restrained 0-0-2 settlement, the arithmetic of the contract terms yielded a very different 11 per cent total, once the province’s school district administrators crunched the

numbers. The real cost of Dix’s 0-0-2 BCTF contract amounted to an additional $1.3 billion (in 1990s dollars) for B.C. taxpayers and it lead to the now famous headline, “NDP math: 0+0+2=11.” So while parents, students and school staff look forward to a relatively normal school year this coming fall, we should also take some time to reflect on the lessons of history and the wonky NDP math that nearly sank this province. And after that it’s time for Dix to break his vow of silence and let the public in on whatever it is he’s got hidden up his sleeve for us this time around. Mike Taylor, Port Moody

Cull of predators is needed Editor: All predators must be controlled. Baby rats don’t look cute, so humans have less problem with their demise. Crows, like coyotes, have now multiplied in Langley municipality and need to be culled. Crows spread disease and coyotes only have humans to control them. As long as large tracts of bush are scraped clean of natural growth without any restrictions, the wildlife must move on to survive. Farmers fight to keep predators from their livestock, but developers and municipal authorities don’t notice the problem. Could we not return to controlled shoots and trapping, done by responsible, experienced people? Frances Steinfeld, Aldergrove

Good way BCTF contract of 1990s hints at Dix policy to move traffic

Glen Valley forest needs to be preserved Editor: In Glen Valley, the Township of Langley owns 21 acres on 84 Avenue at 254 Street. This is a unique stand of “old growth” forest. It has recently come to our attention that this valuable natural resource is now for sale by the municipality, in order to realize some profit for the community. Surely this would be most unwise in this day when our woodland areas should be protected for the health and benefit of future generations. The

We have been assured that there are many other less important areas that may be sold with far less impact on the whole community. This forest is a dense wood of century-old evergreens, including Douglas fir and hemlock, with little or no deciduous growth. It would be a great shame to cut down any of these trees for any reason whatsoever and would certainly bring a general outcry if it were made public to the media.

Headlines would say “Langley Township cuts down 100-year-old old growth forest.” Better to say “Langley Township saves forest ‘giants’.” We hope the Township will not consider selling this particular property, but retain it for posterity and for its continuing contribution to the environment. These beautiful trees should be part of our heritage inventory. Bays Blackhall, Langley

Editor: I hope people would take the time to read the factual data that’s available on roundabouts. We are not reinventing the wheel here. These have been designed and used all over the world for centuries. They are a cost-effective method to calm traffic, move it efficiently, and save energy, all the while saving lives. Yes, the real upside is that we have created a very safe intersection that will reduce loss of life. If ICBC is kicking in money to advance history on these upgrades, you know they are reducing accidents and insurance payouts.

Bill Marr marks 95th birthday

FRANK BUCHOLTZ Times Reporter

William Lloyd Marr, known to his many friends as Bill, marked his 95th birthday on Thursday with a group of 70 friends and family members at Adrian’s at the Airport in Langley. It was a fitting location, as he is a Langley pioneer with a deep and abiding knowledge of Langley. He also spent more than 40 years as a pilot. His father, Dr. Benjamin Marr, was Langley’s first resident doctor, who settled in Fort Langley. His mother was born in Fort Langley, and her parents and grandparents settled there. Bill Marr was born in England on July 4, 1917, but his official birth date is July 5, as his father insisted that he didn’t want his son born on the 4th of July, U.S. Independence Day. His father was in the Canadian Expeditionary Force in the First World War at the time. The Marrs returned to Fort Langley after the war, and Bill grew up and attended school there. He attended Langley High School and the University of B.C., but cut his education short in 1939 when Adolf Hit-

He enlisted on Sept. 3, 1939, a week before Canada officially was at war. In 1940, he switched over to the Royal Canadian Air Force, doing some training at Boundary Bay and Saskatoon. He received his wings and became an instructor for other potential pilots, in Moncton and Trenton, Ontario. He met his wife Etta in Moncton and they have been married for 71 years. They have a son and a daughter, eight grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren. He was posted overseas in 1942 and spent

most of his time on Mosquito aircraft for Fighter Command. He was discharged in 1945 and returned to Canada to join TransCanada Airlines. He was a pilot for the airline, which became Air Canada, until retiring at 60 in 1977. For much of that time, he lived in Toronto and flew trans-Atlantic flights to Europe, in jet aircraft after 1962. He accumulated a total of 28,500 flying hours. He also flew out of Vancouver to London on the polar route. He has been active in Langley Heritage

Society, Langley Rotary Club, the VALTAC transportation group and served as president of the Abbotsford Airshow.

All drains lead to fish 10,000 more storm drains need yellow fish markers in Langley In the past three years, 1,674 storm drains have been marked with a yellow fish emblem by volunteers from the Langley Environmental Partners Society, as part of the annual storm drain marking challenge. There are still more to be done — almost 10,000 more, said Kim Greenwood, LEPS’ special projects co-ordinator. “We may be suffering from our own success,” Greenwood said. “People recognize the meaning of the yellow fish painted beside drains, but not all drains have been painted. There is a misconception that an unpainted drain does not lead to fish habitat, but in fact an unpainted storm drain simply means volunteers have not marked it yet. ” Leaks from vehicles, soap suds from washing cars, cigarette butts and soft drink straws, lawn fertilizers and pesticides are some of the forms of pollution that get washed into storm drains by rain, which drains directly into local creeks and rivers. “The highest concentration of pollution comes after a dry spell, because all of the contaminants that have been sitting for that time are all washed into the drains together,” Greenwood said. The cumulative effect of this

Health Matters

Recent headlines have highlighted the push to ban the use of tanning beds for those under 18 years old, but tanning beds pose a risk for everyone. While they reduce the amount of burning UVB rays, they have more of the cancer-causing UVA rays than ordinary sunlight! A new study out of Harvard is showing that women aged 25-36 who use tanning beds seven times per year have a 73 per cent increased risk of developing skin cancer. A lot of people think that slowly building up a “base tan” will provide sun protection and reduce the need for sunscreen. However, according to the Canadian Skin Cancer Foundation, “tanned skin is damaged skin” and any damaged skin can lead to skin cancer. A base tan can, at best, provide the equivalent of SPF 2-3 – significantly lower than the recommended SPF 30. At that minimal benefit, it’s just not worth the risk. Have you ever thought of getting a tattoo? How about a medical tattoo? There is a growing trend to permanently ink medical information onto our

they continued to loot Canadian heritage sites. Nesteroff was inspired by Barlee’s work, and traced his lonely mission to restore the ghost town of Sandon, “the mining capital of the Silvery Slocan.” Barlee bought a surviving block of buildings in an effort to make Sandon another Barkerville, but heavy snow collapsed them. As tourism minister, Barlee found money to build replicas, and construction began on three. But Barlee lost his Penticton seat to Bill Barisoff in the 1996 election, and today only half-built shells remain. “He was still selling Sandon’s restoration as an economic saviour for the region when he ran for federal office in 2000,” Nesteroff writes. “But by then he was ridiculed for it, and finished a distant second.” Barlee’s 1972 Canada West profile of the boomtown of Hedley would resonate in his career as an NDP MLA and cabinet minister in the 1990s. Hedley’s Nickel Plate and Mascot mines produced fortunes in gold, silver and copper before they played out, and Barlee led the fight to preserve their history. Today you can tour the Mascot mine, a proud historical site with a spectacular climb up the rock face that serves as the Grouse Grind of the B.C. desert. I first discovered Barlee as a reporter at the Kelowna Capital News in the early 1980s, when he did a weekly history show on CHBC television called Gold Trails and Ghost Towns. A bare-bones studio affair with tales and artifacts displayed for host Mike Roberts, the show lasted a decade. Barlee didn’t lack courage, quitting a teaching career in Trail and Penticton in 1969 to start his magazine. On subscription fees and a few classified ads, he built a life’s work that allowed him to walk the boardwalks of history and the halls of power.

"You can really see their true personalities when they are out in the store because they are not sitting scared in a cage," said Sara. "You can really get to know who they are."

Also available in store are a holistic variety of products including items for the dental health of your pet.

They work hard to create great relationships with their customers and their customer's pets. "We help our customers solve problems for the long term, not just short term solutions," Sara said. "I am a huge believer that we try to find out your true needs and don't sell you something you don't need. We always look at all of the different options." The staff at Harvey's Pet Food and Supplies is well trained and are also avid pet lovers themselves. They feel like their

customer's pets are an extension of their own families. Many of the staff are very much involved in the extracurricular activities of their pets and Sara fondly describes some of her staff as the soccer moms of the dog world. For example, Chanone Sanders of Canine Harmony offers puppy classes and skill building after hours at Harvey's.

cats through their special in-store cat adoption program. Each cat is given free range throughout the store, rather than being cooped up in a cage all day.

Along with a large selection of dog and cat supplies, there is a section in the store that caters to birds, fish and small animals. Nikki, the store's manager, is an expert in helping the little critters and can provide any advice needed on their care.

Come into Harvey's today and discover the difference in knowledge and service that will make both you and your four-legged friend happy.

"You can really see their true personalities when they are out in the store because they are not sitting scared in a cage," said Sara. "You can really get to know who they are."

Also available in store are a holistic variety of products including items for the dental health of your pet. Up to 70 per cent of dogs have dental problems by the age of three, which many times can lead to more severe health issues later in life. This is why Harvey's believes it is vital to keep your pet's teeth as healthy as the rest of their body. The same goes for how you reward your pet, too. Harvey's has a large selection of treats to keep your pet happy and healthy. From natural treats to those that are grain-free, hypo-allergenic, organic and low-protein, there is something available to suit any pet's diet needs. Harvey's is also very involved in the community. Harvey's staff support many animal related charities including LAPS (Langley Animals Protection Society), C.A.R.E.S. and S.A.R.S. They have also found new homes for hundreds of

Challenger Baseball inspires Miracle Field GARY AHUJA Times Sports

At first, Ledell Kendall was reluctant to sign her son up for Langley Baseball’s Challenger Baseball program. Since the program incorporates kids of all ages to play on one team, she wasn’t sure how her son, Francis, would react. Francis has autism, and moebius syndrome, a rare neurological disorder which leaves those with the condition unable to make any facial movements or move their eyes, as well as affecting their vision. But she signed him up. “We knew that he lacked the fine and gross motor skills to do regular baseball,” she explained. “We were looking for something he could do, which was a typical sport, but still be safe. “And something that was fun and not competitive.” So Ledell and her husband Adam signed him up for Challenger Baseball. Challenger Baseball is for children and youth who have cognitive or physical disabilities. The program allows them to play the sport in a non-competitive environment. Each player is assisted by a ‘buddy’ who assists them on the field. It allows the players a chance to enjoy the full benefits of the sport, but structured to their abilities. This was four years ago, and Francis, now 9, loves playing the sport. Francis’ favourite position is back-catcher, he says, explaining that without him standing behind home plate, there would be no one to throw the ball back to the pitcher. The Kendalls are happy too. “He was very excited, especially when he got to wear a uniform,” Ledell said. They love what being in some semblance of an organized sport does for their son. “It improved his social skills because he is able to talk to his friends about baseball,” she said. “And it improved his running, his attention span, everything. “It helped him mature and grown so he is more in line with his peers.” “For Francis, because of his condition, it provides structure and rules that he has to abide by,” said Adam. “Making him keep up with the responsibilities.” The Kendall’s would recommend other families to sign their children up. “Some people think with Challenger baseball, you have to be in a wheelchair, or missing a limb,” Ledell said. “It is if you are unable to cope with a regular baseball team. It allows everybody to participate because it is inclusive.” •••••• A few weeks ago (June 23), Langley’s City Park hosted the Challenger Baseball Jamboree, with a couple of hundred of kids taking part. This was the biggest Challenger provincial

event to date. And work is underway for even bigger and better things. Thanks to the efforts of the four local Rotary clubs — Rotary Club of Langley Central, Rotary Club of Langley, Rotary Club of Langley Sunrise and the Aldergrove Rotary Club — work is underway to create a Miracle Field. The permanent field will be designed specifically for kids with disabilities and will cost between $300,000 and $400,000 to complete. Between the two local baseball organizations that offer Challenger Baseball — Langley Baseball and North Langley Diamond Sports — there are currently about 50 to 60 players in the program. The potential site of the Miracle Field is Milner Park. The field would be switched to artificial turf, and be made wheelchair accessible. “Nothing sticking up, nothing for the kids to trip over,” explained Langley Baseball’s Dan McLaren, who was approached by the Rotary clubs about the project. “We are well underway,” said Mike Brown, the past-president of the Rotary Club of Langley Central, who is spearheading the project. “We are coming along, it is just a matter of getting things moving; there is so much you have to get in place.” Construction on the first Miracle League Field began in 1999 and there are now 250 Miracle League organizations across the United States. There is also one in Australia and one in Canada, back east in Ontario. Brown said the goal is to have the Langley field completed within the next two years. David Leavers, the Township of Langley’s director of recreation, culture and parks, confirmed that the Township has been approached about using Milner Park as the site of the field.

Thanks to the Challenger Baseball program, Francis Kendall, who has autism and moebius syndrome, has been able to play baseball for four years. With help from the four Rotary Clubs of Langley, Challenger Baseball will soon have a permanent Miracle Field for their 50 to 60 players.

Volleyball players bound for BC Summer Games It’ll be an exciting moment for three Langley volleyball players who are heading to the BC Summer Games because of their exceptional indoor volleyball skills. Nicole Chevrier, Emma Kastelein and Avery Heppell all made the Zone 3 indoor volleyball team for the upcoming BC Summer Games hosted in Surrey this July — not just because they are all six feet tall, but because they are some of the most skilled players in the zone. All three live and attend school in Langley, with Chevrier and Kastelein entering grade 10 this September and Heppell entering grade 9. The girls were selected during a grueling multi-session tryout that went on for almost two weeks. About 55 elite players from Langley, Surrey, Abbotsford, White Rock, Coquitlam, Maple Ridge, Port Moody and several other areas attended the 15U tryouts for Zone 3 — a zone that is home to the top six teams in BC and home to many of BC’s best players, so the competition was very strong. In the end the big group was narrowed down to 14 players that included these three Langley girls. All three play as middles on the court and are known for big blocks and powerful hits at the net. They also play beach volleyball, two versus two in the sand, and play for their high schools each fall, providing them with

added training in the off-season period from their competitive club teams. All three have played on the same team in the past but last year, for a variety of reasons, they played on different teams. This had them staring through the net and battling each other as competitors but now they get to play together again, and they’re all excited to do so. Volleyball runs in the family for the girls who all have family members also achieving volleyball success at their respective ages — from being MVPs to making university teams and everything in between. The next step for them is striving to win a medal at the Summer Games. But they also have bigger, long-term goals — they all want to win a provincial championship, maybe a national title, play volleyball at university, and perhaps one day play for the women’s national team. Big goals, but they certainly have the height, drive and skill

Langley Jr. Thunder pumped in five powerplay goals and added a shorthanded tally on the way to an 11-9 upset win Thursday over the Coquitlam Jr. Adanacs in a B.C. Junior A lacrosse league battle at Langley Events Centre. The loss was only the fourth in 19 games for the first-place Jr. A’s, who are clinging to a one-point margin over the New Westminster Jr. Salmonbellies with two regular-season games remaining. Delta Islanders are just two points behind Coquitlam in third spot, while the Thunder concluded the campaign in fourth spot. PoCo Saints sit fifth with one game to go. After the teams were deadlocked 3-3 after the first period, the Thunder took control by outscoring the Jr. A’s 5-2 in the second, including three markers with the man advantage. Coquitlam was whistled for 28 penalty minutes compared with 16 for the Thunder. Ben McIntosh zipped in four goals, including two shorthanded, and added three assists for the Jr. A’s, while Matthew Dinsdale also collected seven points on three goals and four helpers. Reid Reinholdt and Cole Shafer also struck net for Coquitlam, who got three assists apiece from Robert Church and Conner Buchanan. Langley was led by three-goal performances from Colton Dow and Nick Stone.

A baker’s dozen for white-hot Jr. Blaze letic Park to battle the White Rock Junior Tritons. •••••• The Mayhem got the best of the Langley Xtreme in the championship finals of the Lower Mainland Cup in Vancouver. Missing two key players, the Langley Xtreme 2001 rep B softball team dropped a 19-10 decision to the Chilliwack Mayhem. Langley had defeated Chilliwack 18-10 during round robin play. The Xtreme also beat the Vancouver Wildcats 11-3

Langley’s 13th straight win improved the U16 baseball team to a league-best 26-5. They lead the secondplace North Shore Junior Twins by five games. Justin Lawrence and Colin McMaster both delivered RBIs in the Blaze’s three-run third inning. The Cardinals struck for one run in the first inning and then forced extras with two runs in the bottom of the seventh. Langley is back in action tomorrow (July 11) when they visit South Surrey Ath-

It took 11 innings, but the Langley Junior Blaze stretched their winning streak to a baker’s dozen. Andre Pelletier got on board because of an error, he stole second base and then advanced to third on a wild pitch. And Eric Broatch then promptly singled him home for the go-ahead run. Steven Young then retired the side in the bottom of the inning for the 4-3 win over the host Abbotsford Junior Cardinals on July 4 at Delair Park.

A STEP BACK IN TIME,

AND INTO THE FUTURE

F

or many of the buyers who have discovered Englewood Village in Chilliwack, the friendly neighbourhood reflects a step back in time: a time when you could buy a spacious new home in a fabulous location starting at $229,900. For others, the Village represents a step into the future of contemporary design and comforts in a one-of-a-kind adult lifestyle community. Shelly, a recent buyer, is in the former camp. “We’ve made so many new friends, it feels like we’ve stepped back to a simpler day when you’d stop to chat with your neighbors or out for an evening walk, enjoying the local coffee shop,” she said. Coniston Developments and Greyfriars Realty, the developers of Englewood Village, have taken great care to craft a community for all stages of adult life. The location on Keith Wilson Road is ideal. The Village is surrounded by majestic mountains and is virtually a nine-iron from great golfing, yet mere minutes from the lake,

shopping, health services and Chilliwack’s best restaurants. And Englewood pampers with luxury, carefree living. Each home boasts state of-the-art amenities, with spacious designs that blend the best of old-world craftsmanship with ultra-modern technology and materials. With six unique designs of single family and attached residences to choose from, buyers are certain to find the perfect home. A gated village, Englewood is the perfect place for you to enjoy an active lifestyle with the views of Mount Cheam. Cheam is the northern most peak of the Skagit Range of the North Cascades Mountains and a fitting backdrop for such a premier development. Every Englewood Village home investment is backed by Coniston’s 25-years of building experience and The Travelers Guarantee Company of Canada’s 10-year Warranty. The comprehensive 2-5-10 Home Warranty Certificate is the strongest construction defect insurance in Canada, and provides new home buyers with

security and peace of mind. If you are considering selling your existing home before purchasing at Englewood Village, Greyfriars Realty can help with its exclusive homeowners Trade Program. This is a unique trade policy that allows you to buy now and sell after with an ironclad price guarantee. Take the gamble out of selling your home. (Visit www. greyfriarsrealty.com for complete information.) Englewood Village has four showhomes open seven days a week, from 12 noon to 5 p.m. at 45750 Keith Wilson Road, Chilliwack.
