One person dead in Langley City fire Monique TaMMinga Times Reporter

Bruce FERGUSON/submitted photo

Firefighters rescue a woman trapped on her balcony after a fire broke out in the suite next to her on the second floor of a building at Rainbow Lodge in Langley City on Wednesday morning. One person died in the fire.

One person has died and several more have been taken to hospital — three in critical condition — following a fire at Langley City’s Rainbow Lodge on Wednesday morning. Several residents had to be rescued from their balconies after a fire broke out in a second storey unit of one of the buildings in the large complex. Flames quickly shot up to the third floor and roof and black smoke could be seen from several blocks away. The fire was contained to the two units but smoke and water damage is extensive. At least six units will not be livable for a while. The large Langley Lions subsidized housing complex is located at 203 Street and 54 Avenue. All City fire crews and trucks were out and Township fire halls were also called in to assist, as well as more than four ambulances and numerous paramedics. According to one second floor resident, he smelled smoke around 9:30 a.m. He tried to escape through his front door into the hallway, but the smoke was too thick. He went to his balcony, closed the glass door and waited for rescue. City firefighters came with a ladder and he climbed down. But one elderly woman whose suite is right next to the flames had to wait for firefighters to contain the blaze before she could be rescued. She was administered oxygen while she waited. Several residents were taken by stretcher to waiting ambulances to be treated for smoke inhalation. The cause of the fire isn’t known at this time.

Two seniors attacked in Douglas Park Pair punched, kicked after telling man not to urinate on walking path Monique TaMMinga Times Reporter

A nice walk after an Easter dinner turned terrifying for a senior man and a woman who were viciously beaten in Douglas Park in Langley City on Saturday night. Around 8:30 p.m., David Nor-

man, 63, was walking with a 65-year-old woman in Douglas Park when they came across a young man urinating on the sidewalk in front of them. “I told him he should go urinate in the bushes or use a bathroom,” said Norman. “He then decided he was going to kill me.”

25% OFF

The accused, a 23-year-old Langley man well known to police, is described by Norman to be 6’3” inches tall and 230 pounds. The attacker tried punching Norman but ended up tackling him to the ground, while another young man jumped in, kicking at Norman. He has bruising and swelling all over his arms and hands where he protected his face and head. He has been to the doctor and

had X-rays taken of his ribs. Norman’s female friend told the men she was calling police, and that’s when the attacker went after her, punching her in the head and trying to take her phone, Norman said. “This was unwarranted and completely out of control in a senior’s district. We want people to know it’s not safe to walk at Douglas Park.” Langley RCMP confirm that a group of males were out in

the area causing mischief, with the one involved in the attack also allegedly responsible for kicking off the side mirrors of three vehicles in the area, said police spokesman Const. Craig van Herk. Charges haven’t been approved by Crown yet but the accused is making his first court appearance this week on the matter. Norman said he plans to be there. Police haven’t arrested the other suspect.

Getting out the vote Preparing for the May 2013 general election in B.C. Dan Ferguson Times Reporter

In the last provincial election, just over half the eligible voters in B.C. actually marked a ballot. The 2009 election represented an all-time low for voter turnout, with roughly 1.7 million B.C. residents who could have voted and didn’t. This year could be better, if the various campaigns to improve voter turnout have the desired effect. Locally, the Greater Langley Chamber of Commerce aims to increase turnout in the two Langley ridings by at least five per cent. The chamber has been staging meet-the-leader events with the various provincial political parties to drum up interest. Elections BC, the independent agency that supervises the vote, has been conducting an enumeration of voters and updating the voters list. Over 1.9 million notices were mailed to residential addresses in B.C. asking people to register or update their voter information in time for the May 14 vote. Elections BC officials also set up voter registration desks

at shopping malls, community centres and campuses throughout the province. They conducted door-to-door visits in what are described as “ high mobility neighbourhoods” and new residential complexes and subdivisions. During the first part of April, Elections BC officials will be visiting long-term care facilities and homeless shelters in the province to provide voter registration and update services. People can use online voter registration at https://eregister.electionsbc.gov.bc.ca or by phoning Elections BC toll-free at 1-800-661-8683.

Who

can vote:

To vote in the May provincial election, a person has to be registered as a voter, a Canadian citizen, at least 18 years old on election day, live in the electoral district where the election is being held, and lived in B.C. for at least six months before voting day.

Where

to vote:

Registered voters should receive a “Where to Vote” card in the mail. They can also visit www. elections.bc.ca online or phone toll-free 1-800-661-8683. The voting place will be open between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m., Pacific time. If you can’t vote on election

day, there is an advance poll on the Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday of the week before election day. Information about advance voting sites can be found on the yellow “Where to Vote” card or online. There are also measures to allow absentee voting by people unable to attend their home location on election day. To vote by absentee voting, visit the voting place that is most convenient for you. If it happens to be in the same electoral district where you live, you will vote with an ordinary ballot. If it isn’t the same district, a write-in ballot is used that has a blank space instead of candidate names and you write the name of your preferred candidate or registered political party on the ballot. And there are options available to people who expect to be out of the province on voting day, or have a physical disability, illness, or injury which prevents them from visiting a voting place, or simply can’t get to a voting place for reasons out of their control, like bad weather. The District Electoral Officer also has the discretion to send a mobile voting team for eligible voters who are in hospital, a mental health facility, a continued, PAGE 4

Celebrities join sexual abuse survivor for poker tourney Monique TaMMinga Times Reporter

Andy Bhatti has come a long way from a $1,000 a day heroin habit and a life of crime. In fact, the Langley resident has completely turned his life around, has been clean for seven years and is in the thick of organizing the Men of Hope poker tournament to raise funds for male survivors of sexual abuse. The tournament is set for this Saturday, April 6 at the Aldergrove Legion. The

tournament has nearly sold out, with several celebrity players scheduled to play, including Vancouver Canucks alumnus Gino Odjick and Chicago Blackhawks alumnus Steve Passmore. Players can put a bounty on their heads to knock them out and receive a signed plaque for their efforts, said Bhatti. Among the celebrities confirmed to be there are Hockey Hall of Famer Johnny Bower and John Craighead, along with TV stars Graham Wardle of Heartland and Nathaniel Arcand of North of 60 and

Heartland. There is also going to be a band playing and the Canucks game will be on. Bhatti has been working hard to get everything organized, including getting sponsors and accumulating an impressive list of door prizes, raffle and auction items including flights to anywhere in North America, a customized eight-person poker table, golf, signed guitars and much more. Shoppers Drug Mart gave a large number of gift baskets.

“It’s been amazing how much support I’ve received,” he said. Langley residents don’t have to play in the tournament to be a part of the event. For a $10 donation, doors will open to the public from 4:30 to 5:30 p.m. for everyone to meet the players and get signed pictures and autographs. The public can also put their name in for prizes and raffle draws, of which there are many. continued, PAGE 4

Cycling trip is next step in Bhatti’s fundraising efforts from PAGE 3

Bhatti’s story of being sexually abused by a Big Brother he was paired up with as a 10-year-old boy was featured in The Times in January. “Since the article came out, random people have been donating to the cause. It’s been really good,” he said. Bhatti decided to come forward with his story, no matter how difficult, because he wants to bring awareness and get people talking about male sexual abuse, a crime that is happening to more than one in five boys in Canada, he said. Bhatti was sexually abused for four years by his thenBig Brother, who was in his late 20s. The abuse turned the once innocent little boy into an angry young man who dropped out of sports, failed all his classes, got into fights and was smoking pot by age 11. He was a full-blown heroin addict by 16. One of his many mug shots shows Bhatti at the age of 20, looking 40, with drug scabs. At the time, he weighed 90 pounds. He had spent as much time inside a jail cell as out. In his own words, he had become “a monster.” He told no one of the sexual abuse. He carried on a life of crime and addiction until he was 27 when the police came knocking on his door — not to arrest him but to ask him if he, too, had been abused by the man who ruined his

His molester had gone on to sexually abuse two more young boys. In 2008, Joseph Douglas Baker pleaded guilty to nine counts of sexually assaulting and inviting sexual touching involving three children under the age of 14. Baker served his time and is out of jail now. “I wonder what I could have become if I had never met him,” said Bhatti. So it has become Bhatti’s mission to help the society that helped him so much and also to get people talking openly about sexual abuse. Bhatti isn’t stopping here. He is cycling from Vernon, where the two other boys were abused, to Vancouver in July

to raise additional funds and awareness. All the proceeds from the tournament and any money donated will go to the B.C. Society for Male Survivors of Sexual Abuse which offers group therapy sessions, counselling and a network of support. The society is severely underfunded. Donations via cheques can also be made to the B.C. Society for Male Survivors of Sexual Abuse or go to any VanCity where an account has been set up as well.

legAl right to vote:

Under Section 74 of the Election Act a person is entitled to four consecutive hours off from work between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m. on voting day if they are an eligible voter. It is up to your employer to decide when during the day you can take this time off, but they are not allowed to deduct pay or penalize you for taking the time. There is an exception, however — a person is not entitled to take time off if their place of work is so remote that it would be unreasonable to try and reach a voting place during voting hours. Violating section 74 could see an employer fined up to $10,000 or jailed up to one year, or both. Alleged violations of the Act should be reported in writing to the Chief Electoral Officer.

voter iD:

By law, voters must prove their identity and residential address in order to receive a ballot or register to vote. Acceptable types of identification and information are documents issued by the Government of B.C. or Canada that contain the voter’s name, photograph and residential address, like as a B.C. driver’s licence, B.C. Identification Card (BCID), B.C. Services Card, a Certificate

of Indian Status, or two documents that contain the voter’s name. At least one of the documents must also contain the voter’s residential address. Other acceptable government-issued identity documents include a healthcare card, birth certificate, Social Insurance Card, passport, citizenship document/certificate, Old Age Security identification card, Canadian Forces identification, firearm acquisition certificate, firearm possession and acquisition licence, Veterans Affairs Canada health care identification card or Correctional Service Canada offender identification card. A vote may also use a property tax assessment, income tax assessment notice, government cheque, government cheque stub, statement of employment insurance benefits paid, Canada Child Tax benefit statement, statement of Canada Pension Plan benefits and a statement of Old Age Security. Some school, college or university-issued documents can be used such as an admissions letter, report card, transcript, residence acceptance, tuition/fees statement or student card. A voter may also present a Provincial Where to Vote card, bank credit card or statement, residential lease or mortgage statement, insurance statement, public transportation pass, utility bill, membership card, hospital bracelet or document or personal cheque. Someone who has none of the above can be vouched for by a voter in their electoral district who does have the necessary ID, a direct family member or someone with legal authority to make personal care decisions for the voter.

Langley MP Mark Warawa has lost his appeal of a House of Commons subcommittee decision, which prevents his private member’s motion on sex selection practices from proceeding to the House of Commons for a vote. The subcommittee ruled two weeks ago that the motion was “non voteable.” Warawa appealed that decision to the House standing committee on procedure and house affairs (PROC). On Thursday (March 28), Warawa was told that his appeal had been rejected

The Langley MP, who has been working on the motion for much of the past year, was disappointed, and is now mulling his options. “I have three options. I can accept the decision of PROC, appeal to the House, or introduce another motion or bill,” said Warawa. “I want to make sure that I take time to consider what is best for the issue of discrimination against women and girls.” The United Nations estimates that 200 million women and girls are missing due to gendercide, and stated: “Renewed and concerted efforts are needed by governments and civil society to address the

Kim Snow has been helping out Langley’s less fortunate for more than a decade. While she was away for Easter weekend, three teenagers stepped in for her to make sure a family enjoyed the holiday too. This Easter, while Snow took a much deserved holiday, she received an email from a mom and her two kids who had no Easter dinner. Three young Langley men, including her son, decided to help. Using the new Kimz Angels delivery truck that was donated by B&B Contracting Group, the three teens delivered a full dinner to the family. “I’m so proud of these boys,” said Snow. The angels’ work never stops. Back from her short vacation, Snow’s angels were delivering much-needed juice boxes, granola bars, soups and more groceries to schools in Langley. Steve Stew of B&B has been one of Kim’s angels for some time now, and worked hard to get her a pick-up truck so that bigger items could be delivered to those in need. “Before the Angel truck, I was always asking people for the use of their truck

Lights on in one office

Better at math

oliticians on all sides of the provincial House are busy campaigning for the May 14 election, even though the official election period does not begin until late this month. Meanwhile, over in Victoria, at least one office hasn’t turned out the lights while waiting for voters’ decision. The office of the auditor-general, which until late May is under the auspices of outgoing auditor-general John Doyle, is working harder than ever to let B.C. residents know how well or poorly government agencies have been spending their tax dollars. In recent weeks, Doyle has issued reports on carbon credits, the process used to select SkyTrain for the Evergreen Line transit extension, governance of school districts, the air ambulance service and financial management within the legislature. His office has also done a followup report, looking at a number of past audits and seeing how various organizations are doing in meeting auditor-general recommendations. One of these is School District 35, which became involved with the auditor-general after it reported a $13 million accumulated debt which arose from poor financial management in a number of areas. Doyle’s office is doing so much right now because he wants to have outstanding matters cleared off his desk, as he returns to his native Australia to take a similar job in Victoria. However, his look at so many areas of government spending is commendable, for it highlights a very important part of governance that is frequently ignored by politicians, commentators and the public. Politicians promise new programs, and certain groups and individuals apply pressure for these programs. But when they are put in place, is the money used to run them spent wisely? In the case of Pacific Carbon Trust, it seems almost certain that is not the case. The carbon trust has skimmed operating money from schools and hospitals for no good purpose. We all pay a lot of taxes. Many of the programs which government runs are reasonably efficient, but others are not, and there is insufficient accountability in the spending of tax dollars. Thankfully, the auditor-general is still asking hard questions, checking over the books and issuing tough and controversial reports. He’s looking out for taxpayers. Whether anyone else is remains to be seen.

ver the Easter long weekend, thousands of bargain-hungry Lower Mainland residents fled Arizona-like temperatures here in search of good deals south of the border. With the Canadian dollar hovering near par, premium outlet stores likely scooped up hardearned Canuck bucks that had been exchanged for U.S. greenbacks. This is nothing new. Cross-border shopping tends to rise and fall with the exchange rate — and dipped appreciably when the loonie was low between the early 1990s and 2003. For the most part, the federal government has taken a hands-off approach, netting millions in customs duties and foregoing millions from people who bring items across but don’t declare or are within their legal limits. Reducing tariffs is seen as one way to make Canadian retailers more competitive. Some fiddling has already taken place, with a reduction in imports for sporting gear and baby clothes. But many worry a corresponding increase in tariffs on a number of countries that used to get a break because their economies were small and struggling now no longer do. China was one such country. It’s true tightening that loophole may hike consumer prices three per cent in the short-term until importers can cut better deals. But it’s hard to justify this special deal for a country like China. Canada needs to strengthen its own manufacturing industry to become more diversified and, to this end, the government has cut import duties on manufacturing equipment while ending deals for competing countries. What can Canadians do to help support our economy, which pays for health care, social services and infrastructure? They can do a better job at math for one. As Target shoppers are starting to find out in Ontario, it’s more expensive to do business here. The big U.S. retailer’s prices north of the border reflect that. Then, when they head south, they can add travel time, border lineups, the cost of gas, food and accommodation to their so-called savings, and see if they still come out ahead. —Tri-City News The Langley Times is a member of the British Columbia Press Council, a self-regulatory body governing the province’s newspaper industry.

Kitimat refinery good for B.C. Editor: I first heard of the concept of a kitoimat refionery from David Black a number of years ago. At the time, I was skeptical of its chances. My initially negative attitude was based mainly on my experience of 10 years service on the board of directors of Imperial Oil. Since I was accustomed to the discussion of petroleum economics centred in Calgary, I saw no need for a refinery in Kitimat. That attitude was based on the fact that there had not been a new refinery built in North America in many years. And any needed increase in petroleum production was achieved by expansion of existing refineries throughout North America. But after my service with Imperial Oil, I went on to serve four years at Canfor, which led to my nine visits to China in search of lumber markets. My exposure to the phenomenal expansion of China’s economy opened my eyes to the true merit of the Kitimat refinery concept. It made me realize that it would not be just another refinery relying on the North America market, but rather a refinery that would supply the vast appetite of China for petroleum products. The challenge will be to draw the attention of Asian investors who would see the value to this investment. It appears that Black, after many years of effort, is nearing an agreement that could provide the vast capital infusion needed to make this refinery initiative a reality. The appetite for oil products for all Asia will continue to grow, and the Kitimat refinery is ideally situated to take advantage. Asian countries, especially China, are very interested in securing a sustainable supply of resources that will flow freely without undue trade barriers

like surprises with taxes, regulations or tariffs. Canada has a good reputation as a free trade country which can be relied on as a dependable source of supply. Now is a very opportune time Jim Shepard to attract the vast investment needed to make the Kitimat refinery go ahead. Black, with his years of dilligence, deserves our appreciation for displaying the foresight and courage to invest his time, money and reputation to help bring along this huge initiative. The positive merits of the Kitimat refinery are so profound that this project is really beyond any political persuasion. Any and all supporters of the NDP, Liberal, Conservative or even Green parties should see the tremendous benefits that would come to B.C. with this project. This initiative will involve the investment of many billions of dollars. That’s for sure. It’s hard for any of us to visualize a million, let alone a billion, of anything. So let’s look at the “on the ground” facts of such an undertaking for all of us in B.C. Let’s start with the big picture. When it comes to the benefits of a petroleum cycle from well exploration to the gas station, the jurisdiction that hosts the refining process enjoys a huge portion of the value addition to the raw material. For the Kitimat project, that would mean several thousand mostly trade union jobs for the multi-year term of the construction phase. It would also mean the creation of over 3,000 permanent jobs for the oper-

ation and supply support of the refinery when running. This refinery would be processing 175 million barrels per year, which means the tax revenue which could go toward health care, education, vital services for the disabled and elderly would be immense. But job creation and tax revenue is not the only desirable feature of the project. It also would provide much lower risk to the marine environment. The shipments out of the refinery would be finished product like aviation fuel, gasoline and diesel These products, if ever spilt, would be much less impactful on the marine environment. They would also be transported in smaller ships. I know there are those on both sides of the political aisle that address this as a political issue. And I would disagree with them. This is a project that can be attractive to people of all political stripes. Trade unions would see a significant increase in jobs and memberships. Hospitals and schools across the province would see an improvement in government funding. Business activity, especially in challenged northwest B.C., would be very positively impacted. And those with a concern for the threat of marine spills would see a significantly reduced exposure for the environment. Based on the huge positive impact this initiative could have on B.C., I think the question should not be “if we want it,” but rather “how can we help make sure that the petroleum world sees this as an attractive way to invest billions of shareholder capital.” Jim Shepard, Vancouver

Idle No More needs an inspirational leader Editor: Disparaging remarks about First Nations people in a letter to the editor which was published (and then apologetically retracted) by a Vancouver Island newspaper ignited an anger-fuelled controversy that swept across Canada like a wind-driven prairie fire. Inappropriate words and misdirected anger can both have unpredictable consequences. The Idle No More movement needs to harness the untapped energy and goodwill that exists in Canada. The movement is in dire need of an inspira-

Corruption and mismanagement don’t only occur in large cities like Montreal; corruption and mismanagement occur in various forms almost everywhere. Alcohol and drugs only offer short-term selfdestructive escapes. First Nations people can improve their future prospects by joining together to help each other and by sharing their knowledge, skills, compassion and dreams. They must also hold their leaders accountable. Lloyd Atkins, Vernon

Editor: There is enough electricity for cars, but not enough for people. How ironic is the picture of our mayor touting a plug-in for electric cars when he and his council cannot or will not find enough funds to buy defibrillators for the five City public facilities. We are told that, each year, 2,000 people in British Columbia could have been saved by their timely use, yet it seems the City of Langley would rather supply free electricity for a handful of electric-powered vehicles. The priority is obviously on the news clip that unveiling a free plug provides, rather than actual need. If council had its priorities right, it would be far more concerned about the well-being of its citizens and taxpayers, rather than the tawdry picture opportunity geared more toward a public relations image, rather than something meaningful and substantial. Shame on Langley City council. Don Woode, Langley City

Birds of a feather Editor: The front page story is headlined “Premier focuses on the future,” (The Times, March 26). What else can she say? She can’t focus on the past — not with that Liberal record. I also noted in the column “From The Editor,” the headline “Clark draws plenty of interest,” followed by “Local politicians show up in droves on Monday.” All I can say is “birds of a feather, stick together.” John Winter, Langley

Thanks For help Editor: I’d like to thank the RCMP officers, the unknown lady and staff of Starbucks for rendering their assistance and care after I injured myself in the parking lot on Thursday in Langley. It is reasuring to know there are such caring people in our community. P. Jones, Langley

Polak, Bains both set to talk TransLink reform with mayors Jeff Nagel Black Press

Transportation Minister Mary Polak is pledging ongoing meetings with Metro Vancouver mayors to craft reforms to TransLink’s governance system following the release of a review of possible options. She said she has already acknowledged the need for greater accountability and a bigger role for Metro Vancouver mayors. “You need to have elected representation for a body that is going to levy taxes and fees,” Polak said. “There has to be a democratically elected body that’s governing that. How do you do that appropriately? I don’t think we’ve yet found the perfect answer anywhere.” Putting TransLink under the auspices of Metro Vancouver may not necessarily be ideal, she said, noting her Township of Langley constituents regularly complain about how they’re served by the regional district. Polak said she doesn’t have a

preferred model in mind, adding she doesn’t want to pre-judge discussions to come with the mayors. The province had previously offered the mayors’ council chair and vice-chair two seats on the TransLink board of directors. Mayors rejected that offer of reform as inadequate. “Neither side has locked itself into a position,” Polak said. “I’ve attempted to reopen the discussion… I feel we’re making progress.” She rejected suggestions the province’s previous restructuring of TransLink and shift to an appointed board in 2008 was a mistake. “With previous iterations of TransLink there were incredible difficulties, particularly with managing some of the finances,” she said. The NDP have repeatedly promised to put elected local representatives back in charge of TransLink. Transportation critic Harry Bains said an NDP government would also first consult mayors before deciding on a new model.

Bains says transit needs most urgent south of the Fraser Aldergrove Star

The BC NDP’s transportation critic says Lower Mainland public transportation needs major upgrades and that the most urgent needs are in the Metro Vancouver area south of the Fraser River. “South of Fraser transit would be my

first choice, then (replacement of the aging) Patullo bridge,” said Harry Bains, the MLA for SurreyNewton. Bains was speaking at a public forum hosted by the Fort Langley-Aldergrove NDP in Aldergrove on Saturday. Local NDP candidate Shane Dyson also spoke, and the meeting

was chaired by the constituency president, Brian Harder. There were about two dozen people present and questions were taken from the floor. Bains said there were merits to the various options being considered by the TransLink board, which include

“But here the most telling conversation is always about transit; how it is near impossible to get to appointments in the next town.” Questions and remarks from the audience covered a gamut of subjects, from the merits of various technologies to the revival of the old Interurban rail line. While there was disagreement on the subjects, almost everyone seemed to concur that south of the Fraser received less then its fair share of transit services. Bains said that south of the Fraser receives one hour of service to the 1.9 hours received north of the Fraser, adding that, “82 per cent of the trips made south of the Fraser remain south of the Fraser.”

It’s spring and that means busy baby season for Critter Care rehabilitation centre who take in injured and orphaned wildlife. “Baby season has started early this year,” said Critter Care founder Gail Martin. “We are busy repairing some of the enclosures, getting them

ready.” Special formula is being brought in for the babies, which include raccoons, bears, fawn, beaver, otter, squirrels and more. The five bear cubs they have are awake and eating, getting ready for their release back to the wild in May. The formula alone costs around $10,000 per year. Then there is the medication for the injured or sick animals.

That’s why Martin is urging those who have a love for B.C.’s wildlife to buy a ticket to their 14th annual dinner and auction on Saturday, April 27 at the Langley Seniors’ Centre. The event includes a no-host bar and dinner, as well as door prizes including a sunset flight over the Gulf Islands, live and silent auction, games and more. Tickets are $55 at 604-5302054.

Since December 2001, B.C. has added over 430,000 jobs (August 2012), 75 per cent of which are full-time positions. Today, we have record levels of employment in the province. Between 2001 and 2011 43,800 net jobs for youth were created compared to only 1,600 net jobs for youth between 1991 and 2001.

COMMITMENT TO SERVICE Premier Christy Clark’s focus on job creation began one day with the creation of the new Ministry of Jobs, Tourism and Innovation - to focus government’s efforts to support industry to create jobs. Her Jobs Plan is all about building the foundation - training for the skills required - and encouraging the investment that’s needed to grow the economy. Government has a choice. It can fund services by growing the economy or by increasing taxes. Christy Clark’s choice is clear.

While a damning audit of B.C.’s Pacific Carbon Trust focused on carbon offset spending in far-flung corners of the province, public money from school and hospital budgets also fed projects across the Lower Mainland. And a leading critic of the made-in-B.C. carbon offset strategy says the legitimacy of the local projects is just as questionable as the Darkwoods and Encana offsets B.C.’s Auditor General decided were not credible. Bob Simpson, the independent MLA for Cariboo North, says in most cases the recipients either had already decided to spend on upgrades to reduce greenhouse gas emissions before carbon offsets were offered, or likely would have done so in any event. Greenhouses in the Fraser Valley were among the recipients — Quiks Farm in Black Press file photo Chilliwack, Randhawa Farms in Abbots- The Lafarge cement plant in Richmond is among a number of businesses to ford, Sun Select Farms in Delta and Lang- receive carbon offset money.

“Fuel-switching in the cement sector is a business-as-usual practice,” Simpson said. “They’re all scrambling to try to get their energy costs down. It calls into question whether it’s a legitimate offset project.” He said nobody appears to be monitoring Lafarge to ensure the cement plant actually burns the agreed amount of wood. The Pacific Carbon Trust viewed its stable of projects in terms of verifiable greenhouse gas emission reductions that could be sold to government agencies or other buyers that needed to buy offsets. But while the trust paid businesses to burn wood waste instead of natural gas in the name of fighting climate change, its calculations didn’t consider whether local air pollution might suffer as a result, which concerned air quality advocates. “Off of wood waste you get ash,” Simpson noted. “You don’t get high particulate content off of natural gas. You’re trying to substitute one questionable practice for another.” Other recipients included B.C. Transit, which bought hydrogen fuel cell buses for Whistler, and TransLink, which bought electric trolleys and hybrid buses. In both cases, the Pacific Carbon Trust embraced them as offsets long after the transit agencies decided to spend the money. Canadian Taxpayers Federation B.C. director Jordan Bateman said he doesn’t really care whether the offsets are credible or not, the entire logic of the push to carbon-neutral government is flawed. “You’re trying to buy absolution with tax dollars,” Bateman said. “How do you blame a hospital for polluting? All they’re doing is heating a facility and sterilizing tools to save lives.”

Last year, music majors in the School of Arts, Media and Culture at Trinity Western University competed to have a composition written especially for them by their dean, David Squires. Fourth-year harpist Esther Cannon was the winner, and the result is Wave After Wave, a concerto for harp and orchestra premiering April 5 and 6 as part of TWU’s Festival of the Arts, Media and Culture. Squires, who lives in Abbotsford, wrote the piece during a sabbatical leave in 2012. It is his seventh collaboration with university student performers, and the second concerto to feature a student. “When musicians work with a living composer who’s right in front of them, they can ask you why you wrote the piece a certain way, and you can make changes as you go,” said Squires. “That’s what music is — a living thing that exists between a composer, performer, and audience.” This co-creation suits Squires well, as his passion lies in not only teaching music to students but also experiencing it with them. “Composing music is a wonderful and mysterious process: you’re not always in control of the piece,” he said. “Sometimes you put the notes on the page and dictate what they do; other times you find that, because of the nature of those notes, they ask for a certain treatment, and you have to listen to that. The piece speaks back to you.” The title of the piece was inspired by the island of Iona, a Celtic community and centre of Christian missionary activity in Scotland from the seventh century onwards.

Having traveled there in recent years, Squires was also inspired by its landscape. “I was impressed with how bleak the island is; the shores are constantly being beaten by wind and wave. But when the sun comes out on white sandy beaches beneath clear blue skies, it becomes a hauntingly gorgeous place,” he said. Squires describes Wave After Wave as evoking several images. It speaks to the shores of this tiny island, the wave-after-wave of missionary efforts that originated there, and even waves of tourists and pilgrims who visit in modern times. “It also works really well with how the harp, in particular, is played. There is an ebb and flow in the music I’ve written for Esther,” he explained. Cannon, a Langley resident and experienced solo harpist, was thrilled to win the competition and especially values her time playing with the orchestra. “It’s excellent for a musician’s development because you learn to work as a team,” she said. • Wave After Wave, will be featured in two orchestral performances this week: Friday, April 5 at Good Shepherd Lutheran Church in Langley, and Saturday, April 6 at Peace Lutheran Church in Abbotsford. The full program, shared between the university’s Orchestra and Concert Band, features music ranging from Vaughan Williams and Copland to Gershwin and Tchaikovsky. Both performances begin at 7:30 p.m. Admission is by donation ($10 suggested). More information is available at twu.ca/samc.

Top photo: Team BC’s Heather Sinclair (left) and Megan Daniels sweep during the finals of the 2013 Optimist International U18 curling championships at the George Preston Recreation Centre against Team Alberta. The match came down to an extra end and a measurement (photo below), with Team BC winning by a half an inch or so, to take the final 3-2.

B.C. ekes out narrow victory in finals Times Sports

In the end, Sarah Daniels did not mind the dramatic finish. Up 2-1 in the eighth end of the finals at the Optimist International U18 curling championships, Daniels was one shot away from victory in the gold medal match against Team Alberta. But her shot came up just short, allowing Alberta to steal a point and force a ninth and deciding end at the Langley Curling Club on Sunday afternoon. Daniels did not make that same mistake twice, as she was able to throw away her last rock and allow the officials to measure the distance between B.C’s rock and Alberta’s rock. The B.C. rock was about a half inch closer to the button, giving them a 3-2 victory.

“My last shot in the eighth end, I was so sure that I had it,” a smiling Daniels said afterwards. The missed shot left the B.C. team visibly shaken, but they were able to regroup to finish things off. “We are just really supportive of each other,” said Daniels, the team’s skip. “We knew we could get through this; we just had to get one (point).” Just the fact the team was in the finals was an accomplishment in their minds. The B.C. rink — which curls out of the Delta Thistle Curling Club — consists of Daniels, her sister Megan (third), Megan Bourassa (second) and Heather Sinclair (lead). Sarah Daniels is 13 while the other three are 16. “We didn’t think

But they beat 5-0 Saskatchewan

’Caps hammer Spartans 6-1 The Trinity Western Spartans men’s soccer team had a tough go Tuesday afternoon at UBC’s Thunderbird Stadium against the Whitecaps FC Reserves. The Spartans fell behind 5-0 after the first 45 minutes before matching the ’Caps 1-1 in the second half to make the final 6-1 for Vancouver. “They probably had (the best) first half of their season and probably our worst,” commented TWU head coach Pat Rohla. “We were better in the second half and were able to match them, but it was not a bright day for us. But we shall carry on. Having an off day against a professional team does not result in a good outcome.” The final 45 minutes also proved to be more equal, as

both teams had a number of chances to increase their tally. And after the ’Caps made it 6-0, Spencer Schmidt finally got the Spartans on the board. The loss comes on the heels of a 2-1 victory last Friday night against the visiting Gonzaga Bulldogs at Rogers Field. Despite facing plenty of pressure from the Bulldogs throughout the contest, the Spartans did just enough to get the victory as goals from Rhys Volkenant and Jarvis Ambaka proved to be all they would need. “I thought it was the most shallow 2-1 win we’ve ever had,” Rohla said. “I thought the score flattered us to be honest. But nonetheless, if you don’t play well and still get a result, that’s a

good sign.” Volkenant was the first to get the Spartans on the board as he converted a Jordan Whitehead cross from a corner. The Spartans Ambaka then got what would be the winning goal when he finished a wellbuilt play, which was instigated from the back by Kalem Scott. After an impressive individual run, Scott connected with Nico Verseveldt in the midfield, who kept the play moving forward before giving it right back to a streaking Scott, who broke through Gonzaga’s back line and fed the ball to Ambaka. Last year’s leading scorer made no mistake, burying his chance with a one-touch finish. Gonzaga hit two posts in the game and came close on a number of other occasions.

Kosterman MVP as Warriors crowned champs A pair of Langley athletes were honoured for their performance at the 2013 junior western regional wheelchair basketball tournament in Prince George. Fort Langley’s Jack Kosterman was named the tournament’s most valuable player after leading the B.C. Warriors to a 21-18 gold medal victory over Saskatchewan. The 14-year-old was the tournament’s high scorer, helping his team finish 8-0. And Langley’s Justin Johnson, 22, was named a tournament all-star. Having only been involved in the sport for three years, he was recently named to the U23 Canadian men’s junior national team. That team won gold at the Americas Zone Qualification Tournament in Mexico last month. The 3-on-3 tournament featured the top junior aged athletes from B.C., Alberta and Saskatchewan. The tournament wrapped up on March 24. ••••• While the junior A hockey season may be over, fans of the Langley Rivermen can get their fix of watching the team’s potential stars of the future this weekend. The Rivermen are

hosting an evaluation camp at the Langley Events Centre. It begins Friday (April 5) and goes through until Sunday. A few of the team’s returning players — Matt Ustaski, Mitch McLain and Jakob Reichert — will also take part. The scrimmages run from 1 p.m. to 6:45 p.m. on the first day, 9 a.m. to 8:45 p.m. on Saturday, and 9 a.m. to 2:45 p.m. on Sunday. It will wrap up with a prospects all-star game on Sunday at 5 p.m. It is free for spectators. •••••
