No need for regional force, says Cooke DAN FERGUSON Times Reporter

There is no need for a regional police force in the Lower Mainland because one already exists, in the form of the integrated police units operated by RCMP and municipal police forces. That was the message of Supt. Derek Cooke, the officer in charge of the Langley RCMP detachment and his boss, assistant RCMP commissioner Norm Lipinski, who commands Metro Vancouver’s various Mountie detachments. Township councillors invited the RCMP to appear before council on Monday, March 4 to comment on the call for a regional police force in Metro Vancou-

ver that was made by Missing Women Inquiry commissioner Wally Oppal in December of last year. In a 1,450-page, four-volume report titled Forsaken, Oppal called on the province to create a Greater Vancouver police force after concluding a fractured, badly co-ordinated police response let serial killer Robert Pickton continue operating for years after he should have been caught. Cooke opened his presentation to council by asking councillors who supported the Oppal recommendation to raise their hands. No one did. Then Cooke went on to argue that, for all intents and purposes, there

already exists a regional force, consisting of integrated teams of RCMP and municipal police officers who investigate murders, carry out crash reconstructions and forensic investigations, share Supt. Derek police dog teams and operate a joint Cooke Emergency Response Team (ERT) that tackles especially hazardous situations. “I kind of wonder why we’re having this discussion [about a regional force],”

Call us first!

Cooke said. “We already have one.” Cooke said information sharing among the different RCMP detachments and police departments has substantially improved post-Pickton, with new technology that supplies near-instant alerts about criminal activity. He compared the Lower Mainland’s co-operative policing approach to other regional police forces in Ottawa, Los Angeles and New York City, where large urban areas are divided into individual precincts that look after local law enforcement, while regional forces pursue cross-boundary crime. continued, PAGE 6

DaN fergusoN Times Reporter

About 120 people turned out for a town hall-style meeting about a $5.4 billion proposed project that would twin the Trans Mountain pipeline that runs through Langley. The Wednesday night, March 6 event at the Langley campus of Kwantlen Polytechnic University was the ninth in a series of public awareness forums staged by a coalition of environmental groups since last July, including meetings in Vancouver, Maple Ridge, Chilliwack, Burnaby, Abbotsford and West Vancouver. A spokesman for one of the groups, Ben West, the tar sands director for the ForestEthics Advocacy Association, came armed with photos of burst oil pipelines in Kalamazoo in July of 2010 and Burnaby in 2007 “Spills happen on a regular basis,” West warned. “Is this a smart direction for us to go? I think the answer for B.C. is obvious.” West predicted the doubling of the pipeline will more than double tanker traffic because the second, newer line will be entirely for export. Another speaker, Michael Hale of the PIPE-UP Network, said his assessment shows the new pipeline will provide no more than 35 new jobs once construction is finished. The heavy tar from the oil sands is a heavier, more polluting kind of petroleum, Hale said after the meeting. “We’re really into an age of dirty oil,”

Hale said.

and less reliably at street level with traffic. The main downside of SkyTrain is the elevated guideway down Fraser Highway would be an eyesore, while BRT and LRT offer more scope to improve urban design. Surrey transit advocate Paul Hillsdon said SkyTrain on Fraser Highway would depend on neighbourhood acceptance of denser development — SkyTrain could bring high-rise towers, not just mid-rises, to Fleetwood and Clayton. BRT, which delivers the southern leg to South Surrey/White Rock in all options, does not simply mean adding more buses. A BRT line would run high-capacity articulated buses in their own dedicated lanes, with traffic priority — functioning much like a light rail system on rubber wheels instead of tracks. Surrey Councillor Barinder Rasode said council definitely wants light rail, not just express-bus BRT, on King George to den-

sify that corridor, in line with city plans. “We’ve been very clear that our option would be LRT, not just because of the cost but because it is less intrusive to the community,” Rasode said. Light rail passengers riding at street level would be more likely to stop and shop at Surrey businesses, she said, than an overhead SkyTrain whisking residents to other cities. “It’s about economic investment in our own city,” Rasode said. “We don’t want mass rapid transit running right out of the city every time. We don’t want people to just be transported straight out to Langley.” A cheaper option, at $1.68 billion, would run light rail on Fraser Highway to LangleyEESSand BRT on the King George and UDD IN INCCLLU 104 corridors.

An overhauled design for a new two-storey, heritage-style office complex for the western entrance to Fort Langley has won acceptance by Langley Township councillors. In January, a majority of Township councillors complained the exterior of the building plans for the 23100 block of 96 Avenue didn’t look old enough. On Monday, March 4, architect Gordon Klassen returned to council with a new old-style look that he said would be a better fit with Fort Langley.

Among the changes, Klassen switched to “heritage industrialtype glazing” to make the windows look older, added windows to the bottom floor and reduced the number of pillars, something a critical councillor Charlie Fox had complained were not appropriate for the era the building was supposed to be imitating. “We feel that we’ve addressed these issues,” Klassen said. The revised plans won an unanimous vote of support from council. “You’ve done an amazing job,” Fox said. “In a way, I’m glad I challenged you.” Councillor Michelle Sparrow called the project “beautiful.”

Stuck kitty Secondary suite fees approved New fees will unfairly target legal rescued suites, critics charge from toilet Dan Ferguson Times Reporter

Monique TaMMinga Times Reporter

We have all heard of firefighters rescuing cats from tree tops, but from a toilet may be a first. On Friday, around 5:15 p.m., Township fire crews were called out to a home in the 20400 block of 89 Avenue to rescue a cat stuck in a toilet. According to assistant fire chief Bruce Ferguson, firefighters were able to carefully remove the feline and return it into the care of the owners. Ferguson said it isn’t known how the cat became lodged in the toilet, but one could guess some flushing might have been involved. The cat didn’t need to be seen by a veterinarian, he said.

Township of Langley homeowners with secondary suites will have to pay as much as $580 a year under new regulations given final approval on Monday, March 4. Councillor Kim Richter cast the only vote against the fees.

“It will add an unnecessary and unfair burden on existing legal suites,” Richter said. It was the same complaint a number of homeowners made during earlier council meetings. The critics said the 1,000 homeowners who have properly registered their suites will be the first to pay, not the estimated 10,000 to 12,000 illegal secondary

suites in the Township. The exact amount billed will vary depending on whether a house is Kim connected Richter to municipal sewer and water services. Township staff estimate the suite fee could bring

Regional push ‘political’, says Froese

from PAGE 1

He said the different municipalities in the Lower Mainland are the equivalent of those precincts. The detachment head also took a few minutes to challenge critics who claim the RCMP are not well-suited for community policing because they take their orders from headquarters in Ottawa. “Ottawa has virtually nothing to do with day-to-day policing operations in Langley,” Cooke said. “My accountability is to the community.” Cooke said the RCMP offer certain advantages in cost and economies of scale. Ottawa covers a percentage of policing costs for municipalities, Cooke noted, and the RCMP as a large police force

can operate services like the Air One helicopters that benefit all police. The only municipal police department that doesn’t participate in the integrated teams with the RCMP is Vancouver, Cooke said. He was quick to add that the Mounties and VPD have a good working relationship. The VPD has been lobbying to run a regional police force, something Assistant Commissioner Lipinski said would offer no advantage over the current setup and would amount to recreating existing services. It comes down to cost and effectiveness, Lipinski said. “What are you going to gain and at what cost?” In response to questioning from council, Lipinski said the RCMP have been taking a lowkey approach to the regional

police debate, limited to presenting their side when specifically requested. “We would like to see the facts on the table,” Lipinski said. “We tend to shy away from getting into the weeds. We’re asked, we appear. “We give the facts for your consideration.” Mayor Jack Froese, a former VPD officer, agreed that communication between municipal police and the RCMP has improved since he retired from the department. “It’s a thousand-fold better,” Froese said. Froese went on to say he believes Langley is getting “good value for service” from the RCMP and dismissed the Oppal call for regional policing as “politically driven.”

Transit forum set for Aldergrove

Aldergrove man arrested in 2012 home invasion A 24-year-old Aldergrove man is in custody accused of a home invasion in West Vancouver last fall. On Oct. 28, 2012, West Vancouver Police were called to a home in the 2200 block of Haywood Avenue. A man inside the home told police he had been confronted by two suspects brandishing a gun. The victim’s hands were bound with plastic tie straps and several items were stolen from the home, said police.

At the time of the alleged home invasion, police had already received and were responding to complaints about two suspicious men claiming to be distributing pamphlets in the same block. Investigators subsequently determined the attack was not random. After an extensive investigation using a variety of techniques one suspect was identified and an arrest warrant was issued in early February.

Richard Wayne Heino was arrested by Abbotsford Police March 1, on the outstanding warrant. Crown Counsel has approved charges of unlawful confinement and use of an imitation firearm in the commission of an offence. Investigation to identify and arrest a second alleged suspect is ongoing, said West Van Police. Heino remains behind bars.

The missing billions

Change of attitude

ast week, a few billion dollars were thrown around by TransLink, Vancouver Mayor Gregor Robertson and others, in proposals for new rapid transit lines. Robertson doesn’t want to settle for $1.1 billion to extend rapid transit to UBC — he wants $3 billion to have an underground subway all the way along the busy Broadway corridor to a university that, for at least four months of the year, has few people on campus. TransLink doesn’t agree with Surrey’s idea of a light rail or rapid bus system along King George and Fraser Highways in Surrey (with the Fraser Highway line extending to Langley City). It wants SkyTrain, at a cost of $2.2 billion. Is it permissible to ask at least one question? Where exactly are all these billions going to come from? The federal government, which has contributed some funds to the building of transit lines in the past, is running a deficit. The Canadian economy, while not weak, isn’t exactly robust. Commodities, which have been responsible for much of Canada’s economic performance in the past, are weaker than they have been, and Alberta oil is having a tough time making its way to market. The provincial government claims it has a balanced budget but only by selling properties. It clearly has little extra money at present. As for TransLink, it can’t even afford to run the buses across the Port Mann Bridge at the level of service promised, let alone pay for any rapid transit expansion. It has proposed many new taxes, but all are opposed to a greater or lesser degree by overtaxed residents. Local governments won’t be putting money towards these rapid transit lines. Nor will developers pay large sums to expedite them, given a softening real estate market. Let’s put all these billions in context. At this point in time, there is no money to build any of these transit projects. Planning is great, but until there is a far better way for TransLink to raise money for capital projects, it is highly unlikely it will be taking part in any expansion of rapid transit in the Lower Mainland. Let’s remember just how difficult it was to nail down a way to raise funds to build a modest rapid transit extension to Coquitlam and Port Moody. It’s why we are paying 17 cents a litre in gas tax to TransLink. It’s easy to talk about billions of dollars. It’s much harder to find them.

riday was International Women’s Day. The theme for 2013 was Working Together: Engaging Men to End Violence against Women, a theme that touches the lives of people from all age groups, ethnic backgrounds and economic classes, female and male. Overall, crime rates in Canada are falling. However, statistics show violence against women remains a serious problem. Consider the following statistics from the Canadian Women’s Foundation: • On any given day in Canada, more than 3,000 women — along with their 2,500 children — are living in emergency shelter to escape domestic violence; • Every six days a woman in Canada is murdered by her boyfriend or husband; • More than 40,000 arrests annually are a direct result of domestic violence, or about 12 per cent of all Canadian violent crime; • About 67 per cent of all Canadians personally know at least one woman who has been sexually or physically assaulted; • In just one year, 427,000 women over the age of 15 in Canada reported they had been sexually assaulted. Only about 10 per cent are reported; and • About half of all Canadian women have experienced at least one incident of physical or sexual abuse since age 16. With statistics like these, it is fair to assume there is violence against women happening everywhere. Men have a vital role to play in ending violence against women. Much of it is about changing the attitudes of our peers. It is important to be a good role model, especially with children and young adults. Emphasize the importance of treating women and girls with respect. No one deserves to be a victim of abuse, physical violence or sexual assault. But they deserve to be helped. —Fernie Free Press (Black Press) The Langley Times is a member of the British Columbia Press Council, a self-regulatory body governing the province’s newspaper industry.

Concern about global warming is misplaced Editor: Here we go again. I see a bunch of sincere well-meaning kids protesting our lack of action on global warming. Just a few days ago, two new volcanoes erupted. What are we going to do, give these countries carbon credits? Global warming has become a religion,without solid facts to back it up. What are we going to do about it? Some people are so eager to increase the carbon tax, as if that is going to have any effect. All The

it will do is make our cost of living higher. It might make a lot of younger people feel better, but it will have absolutely no effect on the temperature of the earth. Can we make our air cleaner? Absolutely — but let’s ask ourselves a sensible question. Since the carbon tax has been assessed in B.C., has it improved the state of global warming, or just put more money in the hands of politicians to throw into some of their harebrained schemes?

Let’s quit getting the kids all hysterical. We do not have control over our climate, so there is very little we can do about it. “Do something,” some would scream. Do what? When somebody can tell me what we can do about volcanoes and forest fires, as well as India and China and their climate abuses, then I’ll listen to them about what’s coming from my tail pipe.

Cruise-In on board Editor: The best attended charity fundraiser in Western Canada, the Langley Good Times Cruise-In, is back. The event sports a recently-elected board of directors, with some new faces and many returning members. We would like to introduce the members of the board to the public, and we would like to encourage you to recognize them for their efforts. Feel free to offer the Cruise-In your constructive input and your moral and financial support. First, we have Riccardo Sestito, who has recently ended a seven-year run as president of the show, He will spend this year as past president. He has been involved in the show since the early days of the CruiseIn and is a long term member of the board. He works in the insurance industry locally and is raising a family in Langley. His expertise in insurance has been invaluable for the Cruise-In as risk manager, and has somehow given him incredible expertise in arranging for portable toilets. We are not sure how these relate, but welcome back Riccardo. I (Eric Taylor) am the new president. I’ve been involved with the Cruise-In for about seven years and was the vice-president last year, after serving the prior year on the board of directors. I work in the steel industry and have a family here in Langley. I’m new at the job of president and will be looking for the support of the experienced members of the board, who may be thinking “We really don’t know what good he will bring, but we have high hopes.” New vice-president is Martin Brown. He operates a local consulting and continued, PAGE 14

His experience in the rentals industry has him ultimately knowledgeable and well connected to put all the right things at hand for the Cruise-In committee to put the show in motion. As a special treat this year, we have Corinna Ulvild and her trophy husband Rich, both on our board. Corinna is the smiling face that you have all seen at the souvenir tent at Cruise-In for years and years. Her experience as an elementary school teacher will be beneficial in keeping board meetings in hand. Rich has also been a longterm supporter and volunteer at the Cruise-in, and served as the president before Riccardo Sestito’s term. He is in the mortgage industry and is very well-versed in promotion and sales. Together, Corinna and Rich have raised their family in North Langley and continue to reside there. We welcome Corinna to the board, and her presence will more than make up for the burden of having Rich, too. Those interested in helping out at this year’s show can contact me at Corveric@ me.com.

project management company, which specializes in providing solutions in people and project management. He has been involved with Cruise-In for three years, mostly looking after the marketplace, which is a challenging position. We are pleased to have a sharp mind like this on board, and we are sure that his management skills will be more than welcomed by the board. He is a resident of North Langley and certainly isn’t short of good ideas. Lori Watts, one of the originators of the Cruise-In, continues with the board. She has been involved since the first show, and we wouldn’t know what to do without her. Another local resident, she is a key person at the chamber of commerce in Langley. She arranges so many things behind the scenes that we really don’t even know what some of those things are. With her trusty Chuck in tow, Lori can be found organizing unsuspecting passersby into doing car show tasks. Audrey Stebanuk is another returning member who has such extensive experience in car shows that she could probably do most of this herself. Her husband, Gord, also

is deeply involved in CruiseIn. The two of them have been key to show day registration and getting all the registered cars staged and sent in waves to be parked in town. The Stebanuks are in the mobile welding and repairs business in Langley and have been into car shows for many years. We are very pleased that Audrey (and Gord, too) come back year after year. Dick Hooper is our director in charge of getting things done. His years of experience as a city electrician and his ‘get it done’ attitude inspire people around him to do just that: get things done. He has been retired for some years (we decline to say exactly how many, so we don’t make the cars on display seem like late models) and was honoured as Langley’s Citizen of the Year a few years back. He is deeply involved in the Rotary Club, and he seems to run on never-ending energy to help people. We should all aspire to be as good a citizen. Another new board member is Wayne Patterson. He has been responsible for the bangup job done the last couple of years of setting up and manning the barricades around town, to allow us to shut down the city for the show.

Director Brittany Bergevin Heads to Regina

“I hope I can make you all proud ” It is with a heavy heart that I have to inform you that I have sat at my last board meeting for the Otter Co-op this past week. However, the news is not all bad. I am currently preparing to depart to “The Pile of Bones” otherwise known as the city of Regina. I will be attending the RCMP training academy Depot, in hopes of graduating to become a police officer. It is going to be a difficult six months away from home, and it could potentially be longer, but I will perservere. I have enjoyed my time on the board as both a Junior Director and as an Elected Director. I hope that as the Junior Director I did that position justice, and I thank the board and the membership for giving me the chance to prove myself as an elected official. I know that I have gained much knowledge that I would not have been able to receive elsewhere. I have made countless friends in the

staff, board members, management, and others around the Cooperative system that I hope to maintain for a lifetime. Most importantly however, I have gained an appreciation for the Cooperative system as a way of doing business and life. One thing that I ask is that you continue to put faith in young people. Without being given that first chance, I know I would not be where I am today and I am grateful for that. The experience of being a director has given my life a quality that not many young people can attest to and I say thank you for that opportunity. I appreciate all that you have given me over the years and I hope that I will make you all proud. If I do end up somewhere other than the lower mainland, I hope that that town has a Co-op so that I can share my appreciation for the Co-operative values elsewhere.

Armstrong Feed Mill

A Great Addition to Otter Co-op Otter Co-op is pleased to announce that the purchase of Interior Dairysource Feed Mill is complete! As of March 7, 2013, Otter Co-op purchased the assets of Interior Dairysource in Armstrong, BC; and began operating as Otter at Armstrong on March 8th. This feed mill operation fits in well with Otter Co-op’s feed division, as feed is a major component of our business, selling in excess of $33 million dollars this past fiscal year. The mill at Armstrong in its current configuration has the capacity to produce approx 25,000 tonnes of feed per year. To put it into comparison, our feed mill operation in Aldergrove produces approx 65,000 tonnes of feed per year. Otter Feed Division currently sells to farm accounts and consumers in the Fraser Valley and Lower Mainland. And Otter also has a significant feed business with dealers and resellers all over BC, as well as to some dealers into Alberta. The purchase of the Armstrong facility will help increase capacity, as well as improve delivery efficiencies and offer us the opportunity to purchase ingredients more competitively with the increase in volume and access to rail. This is a great addition to Otter Co-op, and will reap benefits to the Co-op and our members for years to come!

If Yes, Otter Co-op Board of Directors is looking for you! Sense of Community, Business Acumen in helping direct a $170 million operation. If you are interested in running for the Otter Co-op Board of Directors you must have your Director Qualification Declaration signed by Wednesday, May 15, 5:00 pm to be eligible to run for a position at the May 29, 2013 Annual Meeting. Applications are available at the Administration Office. If you have any questions please call Merilee @ the Administration Office 604 607 6923.

President’s Message:

Spring is fast approaching! One only needs to see the wonderful display of garden seeds, seed potatoes, patio furniture and barbeques to get the feeling. This also means that summer will come quickly. As our General Manager alludes to in his Dorothy Anderson message, Otter Co-op has had another Board President great year, and we just keep growing and growing. March 2, 2013, marked our year-end with sales of just over $167 Million. As our Co-op is a member/owner of Federated Co-operatives Ltd., we are now in the #8 position of the 234 Co-ops, mostly in Western Canada, under the Cooperative Retailing System umbrella. We are very fortunate that Otter Co-op is very diversified as we have many different business units, such as Food, Hardware, Family Fashions, Pharmacy, Feed, and Petroleum, which includes our 5 Gas Bars and Bulk Petroleum. As well, our management team is always on the lookout for new opportunities that might work within our Co-op System. You, our members, can let us know if you think of anything we are missing. That is how our Pharmacy within the Retail Centre came into being. Just recently, five of our Directors had the opportunity to attend the Federated Co-operatives Limited (FCL) Annual General Meeting held in Saskatoon. Senior Leadership Team Vice-Presidents updated us on the various departments that made up their $8.8 billion of sales in their last fiscal year. Of this amount, $527 million will be allocated to the 234 member Co-ops as patronage refunds on their 2012 purchases from FCL. This then makes up a portion of the Patronage Dividends that we pay out to you, our members, every September. As is always the case, FCL keeps the whole Co-op Retailing System updated and in turn emphasizing our “YOU’RE AT HOME HERE” tagline. Training of our staff (and Directors) is constantly happening at Otter Co-op. This is where our Co-op brand characteristics come in: FRIENDLY, TRUSTING, CARING, HONEST, PROUD, SUCCESSFUL, AUTHENTIC, and KNOWLEDGEABLE … coming straight from the book and we mean it. Enjoy the coming months and remember “YOU’RE AT HOME HERE”. We are the hosts, you are the guests. We look forward to seeing you at the Co-op.

Congratulations to all our Winners!

March 2, 2013 marked the end of our fiscal year here at Otter Co-op, and what a grand way to end our 90th Year Anniversary! With strong community support from our members and shoppers, Otter achieved a new record for sales this past year, ending at $167,116,529; Jack Nicholson which is a 7.9% increase over the previous General Manager record set last year of $154,919,309. Fantastic results made possible by our dedicated team of directors and staff at Otter, as well as you, our loyal shoppers. I am very proud of our team and these results, especially given the past year of increased local competition, and competing with additional cross border shopping challenges. March 2013 also marks the expansion of Otter Co-op’s successful Feed Division, as we complete the purchase of a feed mill operation in Armstrong, British Columbia. As of March 7th, the Interior Dairysource Feed Mill is now part of the Otter Co-op Feed operation, and fits in well with our position as a provincial feed company. Otter Co-op currently enjoys sales of our products to well in excess of 150 feed dealers throughout British Columbia, and there were many synergies between our two mills that made this a great marketing, sales and bottom line addition to our company. We are excited that this operation will bring bottom line savings to the feed operation immediately, as well as operational savings through improved purchasing opportunities on commodities that we currently use in our Aldergrove operation. Other expansion projects currently in the works include our planned gas bar and convenience store on Highway 11 between Abbotsford and Mission; and a new cardlock, bulk plant, gas bar and convenience store in Chilliwack on Lickman Road. We continue to work through the Department of Fisheries and Oceans for our project on Highway 11, and are planning to break ground on our Chilliwack site later this year. These projects both fit in well with our plan for continued growth and success of our organization, adding additional sales and profits into the Coop. Your board and management and staff continue on a track record of fiscal responsibility balanced with sound marketing objectives, to ensure that we have continuous development and growth of our employees and the Co-op. I love that someone said Otter Co-op is rooted in history, is relevant and revered today, and positioned for tomorrow. It’s great to see what we’ve achieved this past year, and we are excited and looking forward to another record breaking year in the twelve months ahead of us. Our Annual Meeting is set for May 29th, be sure and mark your calendar to come out and hear the results achieved in each division this past year, as well as the exciting plans for the future. See you at the Co-op!

Saskatoon Saskatchewan March 1-4/2013 Susan Dodd Otter Co-Op Director

As a new director I was able to attend this meeting as a delegate for Otter Co-op. I learnt that no matter the size of the Co-op, challenges of the future will affect us all. Technology is an area that is growing at lightning speed, and Federated Co-op is making great strides to insure that every Co-op will embrace these changes. It was amazing to meet other delegates from all over western Canada who had similar concerns to us here at Otter. The big box stores are everywhere and we need to evolve, but not forget our roots. The co-op brand and the re-branding of some of our products, with commitment to quality, will create value for our members and community. On Sunday evening we had the opportunity to hear keynote speaker Mark Tewksbury (former Canadian

Olympic swimmer) talk about how business is similar to sports. He spoke about envisioning success, working towards that goal and having the commitment to become a winner, no matter where you are on the team. The bar is constantly being raised and by using the power of example we can inspire excellence in others. Taking control of our destiny by investing in our future with marketing strategies and training of the next generation, Co-op's can continue on the path of growth, and retain the values that are important to us all. “At Co-op you're at home here” Respectfully submitted, Susan Dodd OTTER CO-OP DIRECTOR

Bold as brass at Kwantlen Brenda anderson Times Reporter

Erin Cebula, Spokesperson

When it comes to musical showcases, there’s always been a certain ‘something’ about a piano’s elegant grace and those distinctly haunting melodies that only stringed instruments can produce. But is it really fair to let keys and strings have all the attention? This weekend, brass will get its chance to shine, as Kwantlen Polytechnic University’s music department presents its second annual brass concert featuring both student and professional musicians — one that promises to be heavy on the horns. Two groups — Kwantlen Brass Ensemble and Touch of Brass — will take the stage at KPU’s Langley auditorium on Friday, March 15. Tom Shorthouse, a KPU music instructor and director of both ensembles, said the idea for the brass concert flowed from a similar effort in Vancouver. Through the years, UBC has held an annual brass festival which has been well attended, Shorthouse explained. “We thought we’d try to mirror that in the Fraser Valley, with a smaller performance and perhaps add a masterclass.” Introduced last year as Brass Blast, the show will include pieces that are both familiar and brand new to audiences. Among the pieces the KPU ensemble is scheduled to perform is a work titled Akrobrasstics — an original composition in three movements by Vancouver’s Fred Stride, who is himself a former trumpet player. “It’s virtuosic and very accessible, very approachable, melodic and showy,” said Shorthouse. Also on the program will be excerpts from the opera Carmen and the Hungarian March from Faust. The audience can also look forward to hearing “mass brass” when all 22-instruments from both ensembles join together in song at the end of the concert. But there will be time to single out a performer or two, as well. Will Broverman, a second-year KPU student and graduate of Walnut Grove Secondary, will be featured on bass trombone during a performance of Henry Mancini’s Days of Wine and Roses. Broverman, a performance major, is one of two KPU music students —

From left: Nicholas Robson, Justin Bury, Will Broverman and instructor Tom Shorthouse will perform during the upcoming brass concert at Kwantlen Polytechnic University. The March 15 concert will feature performances by the Kwantlen Brass Ensemble and A Touch of Brass. along with Langley Fine Arts School graduate Nicholas Robson — who have been accepted as first alternates to the National Youth Orchestra of Canada. “It’s a huge accomplishment,” said Kwantlen music instructor Dr. Wayne Jeffery. The 19-year-old Boverman, who is currently a member of both the Vancouver Academy Symphony Orchestra and the Fraser Valley Wind Ensemble, hopes to attend McGill University in Montreal, with the goal of eventually winning a full-time job with a professional orchestra. That’s one reason this concert is held each year, said Jeffery.

It gives up-and-coming young musicians a glimpse at the opportunities that exist for them once they leave high school by allowing the younger generation of students to hear both the university group and a professional ensemble perform. The other goal of the concert, he said, is to bring brass ensemble music to the valley and — equally important — to draw people to Kwantlen to hear the young musicians perform. To accomplish that, Jeffery has enlisted the four students in the KPU’s Business of Music class. Third year music students Marya MacAulay, Josie Ohl, Mark Armstrong

and Josh Denny-Keys have been tasked with designing posters and handling publicity to help get word out about the event.

Social justice activist to turn Langley Upside Down Shane Claiborne is bringing his revolutionary Upside Down Kingdom Tour to Langley on Thursday, March 14. “True compassion is more than flinging a coin to a beggar,” says Claiborne. “It comes to see that a system that produces beggars needs to be repaved.” The American-born activist writes and speaks about peacemaking, social justice, and Jesus. He is the leader of The Simple Way in Philadelphia, and his work has been

featured in Fox News, Esquire, SPIN magazine, The Wall Street Journal, NPR and CNN. The social justice evangelist is currently on an eight-city Canadian tour. According to a recent report by First Call B.C., the province has the secondhighest rate of child poverty in the country. Claiborne believes that faith should be rooted in action, and he brings this challenge to cities across the country.

The tour is in support of the Langley Christian Leaders Network and charity World Vision. Attendees will have the opportunity to sponsor children on site. Claiborne will be speaking at Southgate Church in Langley City at 7:30 p.m. on March 14. Tickets are $10 each, and can be purchased at www.ticketwindow.ca. For more information about Claiborne’s work, see churches.worldvision.ca/upsidedownkingdom

Go Wandering with TWU artists Working in partnership with the Langley Centennial Museum, Trinity Western University’s School of the Arts, Media and Culture (SAMC) presents the 2013 graduating students’ art show, In Wandering. The exhibit traces the artists’ journeys as they question meaning, inter-subjectivity, identity, depression, the Second Self (the digital social and psychological identity), and impact on the environment. An art and design and psychology major, Dan Hurst uses a non-traditional medium, human hair, to explore two systems of knowing — mythic and scientific. By juxtaposing these two systems in his work, he explores the odd concurrence of making meaning from remnants. “Knowledge is connecting the dots,” said Hurst. He hopes that his work will “cultivate dialogue by revealing connections that may have been previously unexplored.” For the students, In Wandering is the pinnacle of fouryears of hard work, investigation, and academic study. It is

Art and design, and psychology major, Dan Hurst preps his work for the In Wandering exhibit, opening March 26. a showcase of their breadth of work and growth as artists. “I am seeking to navigate the tragic and ironic relationship between the beauty of the sky and human interference”, said art and design major Su Jung Park. She uses pastel and graphite to explore the chemical consequences revealed in the sky. “We live in a developed country, yet even now, we still

destroy the nature given to us,” said Park. In Wandering runs March 26 to April 27 at Langley Centennial Museum, 9135 King St. Fort Langley. Opening reception is March 26 from 6:30 p.m. to 9 p.m. Presented as part of TWU’s Festival of the Arts, Media and Culture. Visit www.twu.ca/samc or www.langleymuseum.org.

Health Matters

Beans, beans – they’re good for your heart! Now research says they are also good for diabetes! Beans were studied against whole wheat products as part of a low GI diet for people with type 2 diabetes and those who consumed the beans had much improved blood sugar levels as well as reduced blood pressure – further benefit for the heart in addition to the cholesterolreducing effects of the soluble fibre. Can type 2 diabetes be cured? Although longthought-of as a progressive condition that is managed, not cured, new evidence of partial and even complete remission has emerged. The successful study participants, who averaged having diabetes for five years, engaged in strict diet & exercise regimens and the relapse rate was low! Obviously, preventing diabetes in the first place would be best, but this is promising news. People who spend a lot of timing sitting are at an increased risk of developing diabetes – even if they are meeting the established physical activity

The solution? Break Pharmacist, BSc up long periods of sitting, and introduce less sedentary activities. Physical activity is strong medicine against diabetes, but it’s important to ensure you aren’t harming yourself in the process. Get the okay from your doctor before beginning a program and ensure you are spreading your activity through the week (listen-up, weekend warriors!). Check your blood glucose before you start and have a snack if it’s below 5.5 mmol/L then check again 30 minutes later to ensure it’s stable.

Remember the Titans: South Kam wins again South Kamloops defeats Brookswood to win second straight B.C. senior girls title Gary ahuja Times Sports

The twin towers of the South Kamloops Titans were too much for the Brookswood Bobcats. The Titans scored a 59-49 victory on Saturday at the Langley Events Centre, in the championship final of the senior girls B.C. AAA provincial championships. It was the second straight provincial title for South Kamloops. Brookswood was fourth at the 2012 tournament. Emma Wolfram scored 16 points, while grabbing 18 rebounds and swatting away seven shots. Wolfram tied the tournament record with 32 blocked shots over the four games. She finished the tournament with an average of 14.5 points, nearly 18 rebounds, and eight blocked shots per game. Maya Olynyk chipped in with 15 points and a dozen boards, as well as four steals. Wolfram won both most valuable player honours as well as the tournament’s most outstanding defender. She was also the South Kamloops player of the game in the final. Olynyk was a first-team all-star as was Brookswood’s Sydney Williams. Williams was also the Bobcats player of the game in the defeat, scoring a game-high 17 points to go along with seven rebounds, five steals and four assists. Williams also hit four threepointers. “One hundred per cent credit

to the kids,” said Titans coach Ken Olynyk. “Last year, we weren’t expected to win, but this year, we were the favourites. “They came out to pretty much Brookswood’s backyard and won.” South Kamloops lost just one game all season against Canadian competition, and that was against Brookswood back in early December during a tournament. This was the fourth meeting between the two teams, with South Kam winning three times. “They are a tough team,” said Brookswood coach Neil Brown. “They can get out and guard you hard because they have (Emma) Wolfram in the post. If you beat your man, you have to beat her next and that is a hard thing to do.” The Bobcats were also crushed in the rebounding department, as the Titans hauled down 66 boards, including 29 on the offensive end. Brookswood had just 37 rebounds. Brown did call into question the officiating. “We need them to call fouls and they weren’t going to call fouls tonight,” he said. The Titans had just eight fouls while Brookswood was whistled for 18.

Clockwise from top: South Kamloops Titans’ Maya Olynyk (right) and Emma Wolfram share a hug following their team’s 59-49 victory over the Brookswood Bobcats in the senior girls AAA provincial basketball final at the Langley Events Centre on Saturday; the Brookswood Bobcats fans also picked up the tournament’s team spirit award; and Brookswood’s Sydney Williams scored a game-high 17 points and was named a first team all-star. game plan. We were fortunate, we made some shots when it counted.” The second half was much more even with South Kamloops extending the lead by two points, to 43-33. Brookswood did cut the lead to as few as six points in the fourth quarter, but the Titans hit their foul shots down the stretch to win 59-49. This was the smallest margin of victory in the team’s four games. They opened with a 101-18 win over Mount Baker, beat Riverside 84-44 in the quarter-finals and then defeated Oak Bay 58-32 in the semifinals. Brookswood opened with a 72-51 win over Claremont, rallied to beat Argyle 71-60 and then

knocked off Maple Ridge 63-49 in the semifinals. Maple Ridge had defeated the Bobcats two weeks earlier in the Fraser Valley finals. Tayla Jackson (second-team all-star) had 10 points and six rebounds, as well as a blocked shot for the ’ Cats against the Titans, while her teammates Jessie Brown and Lindsay Wand had 12 and 10 points, respectively. Brown was also a first-team all-star. It was the last games for Williams, Wand and Dani Potesta. Wand was injured for much of the season, but was able to battle back and play well down the stretch. Potesta missed much of the season with a viral illness.

As for Williams, the coach called her the heart and soul of the team. “If some of the kids worked just half as hard as she does, we might have won,” Brown said. Williams is off to Kamloops next season on scholarship to play for the Thompson Rivers WolfPack, where she will play for former Bobcats coach Scott Reeves. And Olynyk gave credit to Reeves, who founded the Young Guns program when he moved to Kamloops, pointing out that the Titans players all came through the program. ••••• The Brookswood Bobcats fans won the team spirit award.

March Madness could be coming to LEC Gary ahuja Times Sports

If everything goes according to plan, it really could prove to be March Madness at the Langley Events Centre. The four-year-old facility, which is currently undergoing expansion, is attempting to host eight provincial basketball tournaments in a three-week span. Over the weekend, the LEC was granted the right to host the B.C. junior boys and girls provincial tournaments. Both tournaments will have their championship finals on March 1. Currently, the two events are invitational events and not sanctioned by B.C. School Sports. But that is just the tip of the iceberg. The LEC, which already has contracts to host the AAA senior boys and senior girls provincial tournaments, is attempting to

bring four more championships to the Fraser Valley. Under the plan, the Single A, AA and AAA senior boys tournaments would run concurrently, and wrap up with the championship finals on March 8. And then the following week, the senior girls AA and AAA tournaments, as well as the newly-created AAAA senior boys’ events would be held at the LEC, with the championship finals slated for March 15. The girls tournaments would run in the gymnasium while the boys event would be held on the arena floor. The respective commissions for the two sports have submitted proposed resolutions to B.C. School Sports. B.C. School Sports will decide by April 12 which resolutions will be carried forward and voted on at their annual general meeting on May 4.

Kodiaks work overtime, lead series 3-1 over Pilots

KURT LANGMANN Black Press

The Aldergrove Kodiaks’ mighty defenceman Stefan

Gonzales has been an outstanding asset for the junior hockey team all season but he’s also contributing more than his share to the play-

offs run. On Sunday night Gonzales netted the game four winning goal over the Abbotsford Pilots in double-over-

time to put the Kodiaks up 3-1 in the semifinals. It followed Friday’s double-overtime win in which Kodiak Brandon Dolby scored

the winner at 7:58 in the second overtime, to end the game at 5-4. The Pilots had opened the series with an 8-1 bruising of the

Kodiaks on March 5, however, the Kodiaks evened it up with a 4-2 win the next night. The Pilots now face the daunting challenge

of having to win all three of the potential remaining games in the series, while the Kodiaks just need one more win. Gonzales was also named the best defenceman at the Pacific Junior Hockey League’s year-end awards last week. He scored 13 goals and added 30 assists in 44 games for the Kodiaks, finishing the season as the highest-scoring blue-liner in the league. In addition, Kodiaks coach Ron Johnson was named coach of the year. Aldergrove looks to finish off the series tonight (Tuesday) when the teams return to MSA Arena. A Pilots victory will shift the series back to Aldergrove Arena for game six tomorrow (Wednesday).

Stewart an all-star Brittany Stewart capped off her university career in style, helping the Fraser Valley Cascades win gold at the Canadian Colleges Athletic Association national volleyball championships. Stewart, a Walnut Grove graduate and fifth-year libero and captain for the Cascades, was a first-team all-star at nationals, which were held in Vermilion, Alta. Fraser Valley defeated the host Lakeland Rustlers 3-0 (25-12,25-10,25-20) in the gold medal match on Saturday. The Cascades finished the season 24-2.

New coach needed for Spartans The search is on for the next head coach of the Trinity Western Spartans hockey team as the university had opted not to renew the expiring contract of Dwayne Lowdermilk. Lowdermilk was behind the bench for the past three seasons, including this past year when the team went 6-14-0-2 and missed the post-season. That first year, the team was called the Titans, but they adopted the Spartans moniker when they transitioned from a club program at Trinity Western to a varsity program. They have been part of the BCIHL since 2006. For more information on the position, contact Carol Hofer, assistant director of athletics administration, at hofer@twu.ca.
