B.C. lake searched for missing Langley teens Monique TaMMinga Times Reporter

The RCMP dive team was working Monday to find any trace of two Langley teens, who went missing in Nicola Lake, near Merritt. Their canoe was located, overturned and partly submerged, in the lake early Monday morning. Merritt RCMP received a call around 10:30 p.m. on Sunday, April 21 about two boys who hadn’t come back at their expected time. The local teens, 18 and 17 years of age, had been camping at a family property at the north end of Nicola Lake. They were expected home by supper and when they hadn’t returned, the family contacted the RCMP. Merritt police officers went to the property and located all of their personal belongings still on scene, said Merritt RCMP Const. Tracy Dunsmore. A shoreline search was held throughout the night by Nicola Valley Search and Rescue. At 2 a.m. Monday morning three personal effects (ball cap, shoe and head lamp) were spotted on the shoreline. “It was eerie finding the headlamp, with the light still on,” said Chris Lepsoe, NVSAR volunteer. The local caretaker told police that he had seen the teens earlier that day but a canoe that was known to have been kept on the property was not accounted for. The shoreline search produced no results. However, at dawn the RCMP helicopter located a half submerged canoe near the north end of the lake, confirmed Dunsmore. The search continued all day Monday, and search and rescue officials continued to search the shoreline. The Times has been told that the two teens are students at Langley high schools, but that has yet to be confirmed. With files from the Merritt Herald

The RCMP dive team spent Monday on Nicola Lake, near Merritt searching for two Langley teenagers, aged 17 and 18, who were reported overdue the night before. Their overturned canoe was found at dawn.

Sex offender violates parole within minutes of release Monique TaMMinga Times Reporter

A convicted sex offender violated his parole minutes after his release in Langley. Graham Lackey, 46, was convicted in November 2011 of two charges of exposing his genitals to a person under the age of 16 and one charge of breaching his undertaking. The charges involved incidents in the Comox Valley. At that time, he was sentenced

to prison followed by two years probation after his release from jail. Lackey has an extensive criminal record with 37 convictions, including 17 which are sexrelated, and 12 where he failed to comply with conditions for offences dating back to 1989. Earlier this year, an officer in Langley RCMP’s Sex Crime Unit became aware he was going to be released from Fraser Regional Correction Centre and had announced his intention to live in Langley.

“This individual is a repeat offender with a history of sex offences, non-compliance with community supervision and potentially at a high risk to reoffend,” said Langley RCMP Const. Holly Marks. He is bound by the probation order until November 2013. There are several conditions on the order, including that he not consume any alcohol. Officers in Langley’s Street Enforcement Unit who are trained in surveillance attended Fraser

He has now been sentenced to an additional five months in jail, where he is currently residing. “Here in Langley we have a number of resources dedicated to targeting these prolific criminal offenders in a view to keep our community safe,” said Langley RCMP Supt. Derek Cooke. “I am very pleased we were able to resolve this matter as quickly as we did. “It truly speaks to the officers’ dedication and demonstrates the value of their efforts.”

He arrived in Langley at 1:51 p.m., was greeted by an acquaintance and the two immediately went to a nearby pub where Lackey ordered and consumed a beer at 2:15 p.m., said Marks. Lackey was arrested as he exited the pub and has been found guilty of breaching his probation.

Two community groups complain public opinion is being ignored Dan Ferguson Times Reporter

Four meetings and two adjournments later, the public hearings into the controversial redevelopment of land near Trinity Western University finally came to an end on Monday, April 15. There were only four speakers at the final hearing. The matter is expected to come back to Township council for a decision. All of them were against the proposal to amend the Rural Plan for the three properties at 7645 and 7679 Glover Road, and 22423 Labonte Cres. to create a “University District” of housing, along with some commercial development to serve the housing. Those who spoke were also opposed to the separate, related application to build 67 compact residential lots on the 153-acre Wall property, located at 22415 72 Ave., which is seen as part of the university’s vision to increase student and staff housing. Two community groups who boycotted the hearing created a stir during the afternoon session of council that preceded the public hearing. The Fort Langley Community Association and the Salmon River Enhancement Society sent letters to register their opposition to the Wall development proposal, saying they saw no point in sending representatives to participate in the April 15 public hearing because they believe council is ignoring community input. “We no longer feel that attending public hearings and having council ignore

Dan FERGUSON/Langley Times file photo

Trininty Western University sttudents chat on campus earlier this year. our input is a suitable investment of the time of volunteers who reap no monetary benefit for the many hours they have contributed to this community,” said Doug McFee, director of the Salmon River Enhancement Society, who emailed a copy of the letter to The Times. McFee cited council decisions on a number of issues as examples, including the Willoughby Forewest development, the Coulter Berry building, and the first version of the Wall and TWU public hearings. Connie Blundy, chair of the Fort Langley Community Association, made the same complaint in her email. “We have chosen to forward our position as a written submission so as not to spend our time lining up to speak to

the issue before council, given this council’s recent history of adjudicating recent submissions by largely ignoring the community input at public hearings,” Blundy said. Blundy cited the same projects McFee did. She said council decisions following public hearings “must demonstrate some congruence between the majority view and a predictable result.” Mayor Jack Froese and a majority of council objected to the letters, saying that just because the groups didn’t get their way doesn’t mean council was ignoring them. “I can’t speak for anyone else, but I certainly do listen,” Mayor Froese said. “It’s sad what they’re saying and abso-

lutely untrue,” Councillor Bob Long said. “Somebody should write to these folks and explain how the public hearing process works,” Long added. The mayor agreed. “They obviously don’t understand public hearings,” Froese said. Councillor Charlie Fox bristled at the tone of the letters, calling some of the comments “offensive.” Councillor Kim Richter said the writers were “angry” because they had come to council “en masse” only to have council go against their wishes. Councillor David Davis said the remarks were because the community groups were “annoyed and upset.” The last postponement of the TWU hearing was announced in February to allow further clarification of the Agricultural Land Commission (ALC) position on the proposal. A Jan. 30 letter from the ALC said the commission concerns “remain largely unchanged in that the [university district] bylaw still contemplates a use of land in the ALR that is not permitted under the Agricultural Land Commission Act …” An April 3 memo from the Lidstone and Company law firm said the Township had asked the firm to “explain the [Jan. 30] letter.” The one-page note from lawyer Don Lidstone said the Township was not asking the ALC for approval or consent, only comment on the proposal. Lidstone said even though the the university plan “expressly” says none of the farmland in the proposed district would remain agricultural and would not be changed without ALC permission, the commission “does not support” the proposal. Lidstone added the memo was “not a legal opinion, but merely a summary of the information available to the Township on [the] topic.”

Langley teenager has been Maternity ward theft missing since April 11

Savannah Pederson

Langley RCMP is seeking the assistance of the public to locate Savannah Pederson, a missing 15-year-old Langley City girl. She was last seen on Thursday, April 11 at a SkyTrain station in New Westminster. She has gone missing in

the past, however due to her age and the length of time she has not been seen, police are now asking for the public’s assistance. She is described as 5’4”, 161 pounds and heavy build. She may be wearing a sandy brown shoulderlength wig with greenish

blue contact lenses. She was last seen wearing camouflage pants, black and white Converse shoes and a white and tan hoody. Anyone with information that would assist police in locating Savannah Pederson is asked to call Langley RCMP at 604-532-3200.

Langley RCMP are hoping to arrest a thief who stole from a new mother’s room at the maternity ward at Langley Memorial Hospital on March 30. What should be a joyous occasion for parents was tarnished by a thief who came into their room and stole money and their iPad on March 30. Langley RCMP is releasing surveillance footage of a person of interest in hopes someone can identify her. See the picture at langleytimes.com. Anyone with information is asked to call Langley RCMP at 604-532-3200.

strangers claiming to be relatives. Langley RCMP have issued an arrest warrant for Richard Earl Rupert, a man whose habit of conning elderly people has earned him multiple convictions and the attention of police across the country, as well as stories by two television programs, the W5 newsmagazine and America’s Most Wanted. “We don’t think very highly of him,” said Langley RCMP Supt. Derek Cooke. Cooke estimates Rupert is a suspect in dozens, possibly hundreds of instances where elderly people have been tricked out of their money. Many of the cons took place in Eastern Canada, where Rupert is wanted on multiple warrants. “I think it’s very possible he’s still in the [Langley] area,” Cooke said. “There may be other victims out there.” RCMP have released an image of the suspect taken

by a security video camera at the Langley bank where Naef withdrew her money. Rupert is described as a 57-year-old white male, 5’5- 5’6 tall, 140 to 160 pounds, with hazel eyes, short receding greying, dirty blonde hair, a pockmarked face with a reddish complexion. He is wanted by a long list of police agencies in Ontario, B.C. and Alberta. The alleged offences include theft, robbery, break and enter, fraud, impersonation, being unlawfully in a dwelling house and attempted fraud. According to America’s Most Wanted, Rupert frequents bingo halls and stays in motels, bed and breakfasts, or hostels, always paying with cash.

Louise Naef told an RCMP news conference how a man pretending to be the son of a friend conned her out of $1,800. Below is a video image of the suspect.

Louise Naef said the man who conned her out of $1,800 convinced her he was the son of a friend from Calgary. Naef told a Langley RCMP news conference on Thursday that the man approached her as she was leaving a grocery store. “Oh, I’m waiting for you,” he said. The man told her he had a greeting for her from a friend outside B.C. “Guess who it is?” he said. She could only think of one person, who lived in Calgary. “Yes, in Calgary,” the man said when she asked. Then she told him the name of her friend and the man said that was the person. In fact, he was her friend’s son, he said, and he needed a little help. “He told me had problems on the Coquihalla and the car needed repairs,” Naef recalled. The man said he needed $1,800, and said his mother would repay her. In fact, he said. his mom would be in Langley the next day and would have the money. “He was very friendly to me,” Naef recalled. “Very kind.” So Naef went to her bank branch and withdrew the cash. When her friend from Calgary failed to show up the next day, she realized she’d been had. At first, she was angry at herself. Then she became determined to make sure other people wouldn’t have the same experience. The 92-year-old grandmother has enough financial resources that the loss of $1,800 won’t ruin her, she said. “It doesn’t harm me.” But other seniors might not be as well-off, and she wants them to beware of friendly

Four chances to see local candidates

Four candidates’ meetings will take place in the next two weeks, in the run-up to the May 14 provincial election. Greater Langley Chamber of Commerce and Fraser Valley Real Estate Board are hosting the first two. There is one for each riding, and there is no cost. The first, for Fort LangleyAldergrove candidates, takes place from 7 to 9 p.m. on Wednesday, April 24, at the banquet hall at Langley Events Centre, 7888 200 Street. The following night (Thursday, April 25), the Langley candidates’ meeting takes place, from 7 to 9 p.m. It will be held at Kwantlen Polytechnic University auditorium, 20901 Langley Bypass. The Kwantlen

lot is usually a pay parking lot, but parking will be free that evening. On Tuesday, April 30, Langley Teachers Association will host a meeting for candidates in both ridings, and the public is invited. It takes place from from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the Langley Seniors Resource Center, 20605 51B Ave. It will also be sponsored by PIPE UP Network, Kwantlen Student Association and Coalition of Child Care Advocates of B.C. On Wednesday, May 1, CARP and South Fraser OnTrax are co-hosting a meeting at Langley Township hall, for candidates in both Langley ridings. There will be a chance to meet candidates beginning at 6 p.m.,

with a media power panel asking question of candidates from 7 to 9 p.m. Members of the panel are Frank Bucholtz, editor of The Times; Bob Groeneveld, editor of the Langley Advance, and Fort Langley resident Mark Forsythe, host of CBC Radio’s B.C. Almanac program. This non-partisan debate is open to the public. More than 700 members of both hosting organizations will also be informed of the debate and invited to attend and participate. This is the first-ever Langley debate that will include candidates from both the Langley provincial ridings at the same time and conducted entirely by a local media panel.

Responding to terrorism

We must hold them accountable

T

he Boston Marathon bombing garnered a tremendous amount of public and media attention last week, largely because of where the attack occurred and the subsequent intense hunt for the two suspects. The hunt became even more intense on Friday, when virtually the entire city of Boston and its immediate neighbours were shut down as police narrowed the search for the one remaining suspect. As the search narrowed, both Canadian and American TV channels were focusing on every step, even though there was little to report. At about 8 p.m. Boston time, police knew where the remaining suspect was and after a short time, he was arrested and taken to hospital, where he remains in serious condition. The activities in Boston have again focused attention on acts of terrorism, and it appears this was such an act. The older suspect, who was killed early Friday morning during a shootout with police, was an ethnic Chechnyan who had recently spent six months there. According to a number of reports, he had become more of a fundamentalist Muslim in recent years. His younger brother is the wounded suspect. On Monday, we learned that two suspects were plotting to blow up a Via Rail train in Eastern Canada. The plan was linked to al-Qaeda. The two separate events show that there are people in both Canada and the U.S. who believe that committing acts of terror is a good use of their time and resources. The question is, how best do we as a society respond to this? The answer is not simply to bring in more and more laws. Restricting citizens’ rights actually lets the terrorists win. There are significant anti-terrorism laws in place, and they help police uncover many of these incidents before they take place. There is no question that they are necessary. In Boston, one of the most important tools allowing police to narrow the field of suspects was surveillance video from a nearby department store. Such surveillance cameras should not be a problem for people going about their business in a law-abiding way. More such video cameras in public places may be necessary. As citizens, we should be able to move about freely and not be subject to arrest for no reason. More surveillance videos may make that a reality, while inhibiting terrorists.

he 2013 provincial election will be one of the most important in a generation. Of course, we say this for every election — to no avail. Last time around, in the 2009 provincial election, only about 50 per cent of voters bothered to cast a vote. Who is to blame and will things be any different this year? It’s hard to say. Is it negative advertising that turns people off? BC NDP leader Adrian Dix says so and has promised a more positive campaign. Is it helplessness and apathy that keep people away from the polls? Many people simply don’t connect with government. BC Liberal leader Christy Clark has tried to be a populist (pandering?) premier, appealing to the hockey mom vote, but has failed to attract women’s support, pundits say. Why? Clearly there is a disconnect and the media may have contributed to this malaise by blowing every little incident out of proportion. As in the story of the boy who cried wolf, many voters simply tune out after a while, yet, sadly, when there is a real issue, such as lack of funding for transit, many eligible voters simply don’t see the connection between their vote and government policy. Instead, they leave the field to special interest groups — business, unions, lobbyists — to hijack the results. The truth is that politicians will only be accountable if we hold them accountable. We have a right to toss any of them out if they don’t do what they promised. Voters need to pay attention to what politicians say and they need to find out who they are. —New Westminster News Leader (Black Press)

Trudeau’s Health care assertions challenged thoughtful response Where are NeW GPS?

Editor: In Tuesday’s candidate debate (The Times, April 18), Rich Coleman stated that while B.C. puts 45 cents of every tax dollar into health care, it gets the best patient outcomes in the country. What is he talking about? Just this month, Fifth Estate reported that, with the assistance of five of Canada’s medical evaluation experts, they had graded hundreds of Canadian hospitals. The grading included patient outcomes. Not one hospital in B.C. made it into the top two grades of A+ or A. However, we were well-represented in the lowest grade, which was a D. Only nine hospitals in Canada received this failing mark. Five out of the nine (55 per cent) were from B.C. — VGH, UBC, Burnaby, Surrey Memorial, and Maple Ridge. In February of this year, the ministry of health reported that, despite an expenditure of almost $2 million to recruit foreign doctors to meet the doctor shortage, they were still 400 doctors short to meet the needs of the health authorities and hospitals alone. This is without accounting for the shortage where we, the public, feels the shortage most — in community clinics and doctors’ offices. In March, we heard a lot about the GPforME program, which commits $132.4 million to result in a family doctor for every British Columbian by 2015. Of this, $40 million is going to be spent research-

ing how to solve the family doctor problem. The rest is earmarked for additional and increased fees for already-practicing doctors. Not one cent is being spent to hire new family doctors or to fund residency positions to train medical graduates who must work under a licensed doctor for two years before becoming fully-licensed family doctors. We also heard about a new incentive program where B.C. doctors are being offered $100,000 to relocate to specified under-serviced communities for three years. I am a lawyer. There have been years when there were no qualified lawyers available for hire. I didn’t spend a bunch of money researching what to do. I didn’t throw money away trying to entice lawyers to leave the firms where they were working. I hired articling students. They had to be supervised for a year, but they worked hard, and within one year, my problem was solved. There are approximately 700 Canadians, of which about 100 are from British Columbia, who studied medicine overseas who are ready, willing, and able to work. B.C. is the only province that doesn’t allow these new doctors to apply for residency positions for more than a year after they graduate. So these young doctors go to other provinces and other countries to

work. A number of these new doctors are from Bella Coola, Terrace, Port Alberni, Cranbrook, and other communities which are identified as underserviced in the $100,000 incentive program. Rich Medical residents work Coleman as much as 80 hours per week. They get paid $50,000 per year. In two years, for $100,000 per new medical graduate (the cost is more than offset by the work they do), plus administrative costs, we would have fully-qualified family doctors who could serve our province for more than 40 years. Instead, Coleman’s government pays $100,000 to entice a doctor away from a community in which he is needed, to go somewhere else for three years. Huh? The BC Liberal government has been saying since 2008 that it will unlock the bureaucratic barriers and provide funding so that we do not lose this valuable resource. It hasn’t happened. Instead, the government is spending hundreds of millions of dollars to solve the doctor shortage without hiring one single doctor. A GP for me by 2015? I think not.

Rosemary Pawliuk, Langley

Average citizens pay price for NDP government Editor: Early polling does not look good for the BC Liberal government, as voters appear eager to have their tantrum and send them packing. A new NDP government should not construe this as a mandate to start engineering its vision of a utopian paradise in B.C. Voters’ dubious desire for integrity in government, financial or otherwise, won’t be delivered by the NDP. Adrian Dix is renowned for his craftiness with altering an official document in abetting

another B.C. NDP premier’s violation of conflict of interest laws. Apparently two wrongs can make a right in the NDP paradigm. Entrusting the stewardship of the B.C. economy to the NDP is the formula for becoming a have-not province again. Just before the election campaign began, the party was forthright in laying out its platform, with its intentions to tax and spend, and to run budget deficits. This has been followed up by daily campaign trail promises to pilfer more and more hard

earned money from the peoples’ pockets. Hopefully, the centre-right coalition can get its act together more quickly this time around, and the NDP’s term and damage can be limited to four years. The elite of the B.C. business community and the power brokers of the BC Liberal Party who installed Christy Clark are wellpositioned to endure an NDP government, but the average citizens of B.C are not. Tim Opper, Langley

Marijuana should not be grown in residences Editor: Dave Hall is the only councillor opposed to completely prohibiting the cultivation of marijuana within Langley City. As of March 31, 2014, all Health Canadaissued licenses to produce medicinal marijuana will expire. After that time, the production of marijuana will be confined to secure and closely-monitored commercial locations. Hall suggested (The Times, Apr. 18) that production needs to be as close to the customer as possible. These customers will The

be purchasing their product in a safe and secure way through pharmacists or mail. Hall also suggested that growing marijuana is an indoor activity, adding “it is easier to make an indoor operation secure.” As a neighbour to homes where marijuara is cultivated, why should I have to invest a single extra dollar to protect my house and family from their decision to grow within their homes? Growers grow to earn money. They are

not harvesting and donating out of the kindness of their hearts for free. They are profiting. Let them do it right. If marijuana is being produced for legitimate medical reasons, it should be grown, harvested, and distributed in a safe, regulated and professional manner. Mass cultivation of marijuana does not belong in residential homes. T. Condon, Langley

Editor: Rather than spout the apparently only “acceptable” reply to the emotionally and politically charged topic of the Boston Marathon terrorist bombing, (if I may sarcastically translate — “We’ll give ’em a fair trial – then we’ll hang ’em”), brand-new federal Liberal leader Justin Trudeau blew me away with a totally-unexpected, very rare and thoughtful reply. Asked what he thought about the piping-hot topic while he was being interviewed by CBC’s Peter Mansbridge, young Trudeau had the admirable courage to suggest that society must look beyond violent persons’ atrocious acts. He suggested looking more at the violent offenders’ motivation(s) for committing the acts, however abhorrent, and therefore possibly learn how to prevent future offences of the kind. He apparently finds it all too obvious to state the ad nauseum trial-and-punishmentif-convicted scripted verse. He offered the amazing concept that, if we want to prevent such horrific violent crime, rather than just react to it — as does PM Stephen Harper (with an NDP MP apparently safely agreeing with Harper) — society desperately needs to meaningfully and progressively consider all potential causes of such terrible crimes. Nonetheless, contemporary society’s general mentality is to mostly react according to the criminal acts themselves, and to basically disregard possible noteworthy motives for those acts. Such knowledge that could perhaps prevent future monstrous conduct. Frank G. Sterle, Jr., White Rock The Times welcomes letters to the editor.

Scrap carbon trust, NDP leader says Tom FleTcher Black Press

NDP leader Adrian Dix chose Earth Day to announce his party’s plan to “dissolve” the Pacific Carbon Trust, and put carbon offset payments from government operations back into energy efficiency projects. Schools, hospitals and Crown corporations would still pay millions for emissions from their fossil fuel use, Dix announced Monday in Kamloops. The NDP would also redirect $120 million from the carbon tax on fuels “to fight climate change in both urban and rural areas,” Dix said. The carbon tax is currently at $30 a tonne of carbon dioxide emissions, which adds seven cents to the cost of a litre of gasoline and comparable amounts to other fuels. The legislation requires it to be “revenue neutral” to the government through reduced income tax rates, so the NDP redirection implies that those rates may increase. The Pacific Carbon Trust was criticized in March report from B.C. Auditor General John Doyle, who found the largest two recipients of

carbon credits were not “credible” carbon offsets. A forest preserve in the Kootenays and an EnCana Corp. gas flaring reduction program had already been established without the $6 million in payments from the Pacific Carbon Trust. B.C. universities paid $4.46 million into the Pacific Carbon Trust in 2011. B.C.’s 60 school districts paid a total of $5.36 million the same year, and the province’s six health authorities paid $5.79 million. The B.C. Liberals’ “carbon neutral government” project has been controversial from the start in 2008. Facing criticism about taking money from cash-strapped schools and giving it to profitable corporations, the government agreed this year to put school district payments in a fund they can apply to for energy-saving upgrades. The NDP would extend that approach to the entire program.

alzheimer’s is a growing concern these days for the aging, but steps can be taken to reduce the risk of developing it – and the sooner you start, the better the effect. Watch your weight. Maintaining a healthy weight and, specifically, a smaller waistline are beneficial. eat wholesome, healthy foods, avoiding processed foods. Keep your blood pressure, blood sugar and cholesterol in check and exercise regularly. one of the greatest concerns of those dealing with alzheimer’s or dementia, whether the patient or the caregiver, is the that of the patient losing the independence that comes with driving. one of the best gauges is observing overall behaviour; is the patient exhibiting poor judgment, inattentiveness, clumsiness or slow reactions? and, be sure to handle the situation with tact and respect. For years we have been told that keeping the brain active (doing puzzles, for example) is important to stave off alzheimer’s and dementia, but, now, three separate studies are highlighting exercise as the key

Premier eyes toll cut, insists voters can veto transit funding Port Mann Bridge relief could come from LNG fund, Clark says Jeff Nagel Black Press

Premier Christy Clark is dangling the possibility of an early reduction in tolls on the Port Mann Bridge while contradicting her transportation minister’s claim a referendum on TransLink funding would raise taxes for transit one way or another. In a Black Press interview Friday, Clark said a planned Prosperity Fund, raised from expected liquefied natural gas royalties, can be used to pay down not just the provincial debt, but also the Port Mann/Highway 1 project debt, allowing an early cut in tolls. “As we can afford to, we want to reduce those tolls,” Clark said. “Once we’ve paid off the debt on the Port Mann Bridge, those tolls can go down pretty substantially.” Asked how that squares with past statements that funds benefitting Metro Vancouverites must be raised within

On the Liberals’ promise to replace the Massey Tunnel, Clark wouldn’t say if the new bridge or tunnel will be tolled. “I don’t know what it will look like at the end,” she said. “But the provincial tolling policy will apply.” That policy is the one that allows tolls only on new infrastructure and only when there’s a free reasonable alternative. Currently the Pattullo Bridge is the free alternative to the Port Mann, but critics say the concept would become ridiculous if either a rebuilt Pattullo or Deas crossing is tolled as well. Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts has repeatedly called for “fair tolling” reforms and all Metro Vancouver mayors want a hard look at road pricing. The provincial policy bars such changes and the premier said she has no plans to alter it. “This whole idea… that we should be putting a toll on just about every road, just about every bridge, whether it’s new, whether it’s old – I just don’t agree with that,” Clark said. “I don’t agree that people should be paying tolls on infrastructure that was built 30, 40 years ago.”

COMMUNITY EVENTS CLEAN UP LANGLEY DAY

Saturday, April 27, 2013 from 9:00am – 2:00pm

Langley goes fifty shades of green KRISTYL CLARK Times Contributor

Municipalities throughout the province have been taking eco-friendly steps towards building a sustainable future – the Langleys are no exception. The township and city have been rolling up their proverbial sleeves and doing whatever it takes to decrease their carbon footprint and reduce the amount of waste that ends up in landfills. While the township and city have differing tactics for accomplishing their ‘ go green’ goals, both have been successful in rallying the community together to reduce, reuse and recycle through the Green Can Program. Here is a look at what they’re doing to protect the future generations and keep the Langleys a desirable, beautiful place to live, work and play: TOWNSHIP OF LANGLEY Protecting the environment for the health of the community and the enjoyment of future generations is a major priority for the township. In May of 2011, the township launched a new addition to its ‘green’ initiative – The Green Can Program. The Green Can program provides residents with an easy and convenient way to compost food scraps, soiled paper and yard trimmings. With the cost of garbage disposal on the rise and the cost of composting food scraps and yard waste significantly less, and better for the environment, the program allows the township to save money while contributing to a more sustainable future. Debbie Fleming, the township’s solid

waste coordinator, says that in just two years since it started, the program has already had tremendous success. “With the Green Can program, township residents diverted 7,884 tons of food scraps and yard trimmings from the landfill,” she said, also noting that last year, Green Can tonnage increased by 16 per cent and garbage decreased by six per cent. “We are definitely on the right track. As with anything, it will take time for the program to grow to its full potential, but our residents are doing a great job!” While most township residents have embraced the Green Can program – approximately 20,000 Township households benefit from the service – there are still some who are hesitant. “Most were excited about the program and felt good about reducing the amount of garbage they are setting out,” said Fleming. “As with any new program there was a bit of a learning curve and some concerns that we’ve worked to address; however participation in the program is increasing as more and more people are getting in the habit and accepting Green Can/ composting as part of their everyday routine.” CITY OF LANGLEY In January, the City also introduced climbed on board the Green Can Program – a transition that Langley City director of engineering, parks and environment Gary Vleig says has been embraced by residents.

“People don’t usually react well to change, but given the take up we’ve seen, the community has responded overwhelmingly in favour,” said Vleig of the program that has resulted in a decrease garbage tonnage by 42 per cent and green waste tonnage up over 110 per cent since its launch. “We are very thankful to the residents of the city for taking on the program because it’s the right thing for the environment and for helping the city to manage its costs.” Similar to the township program, it adds kitchen food scraps to the list of waste materials that can be recovered from household garbage, which are disposed of in Green Cans along with yard waste. In a letter to city residents, City Mayor Peter Fassbender noted that keeping organic materials out of landfill has a bigger impact on the environment than many realize. “What you may not know is that organic waste materials we have around our homes, specifically kitchen food scraps and yard green waste make up 30 to 40 per cent of our household garbage,” he said. “By adding these materials to the list of things that cannot be disposed of in garbage, we are taking a big step in increasing the amount of waste materials that we keep out of landfill.”

Businesses, community groups, families, and individuals are asked to participate in a community wide cleanup! This second annual event will help beautify Langley, provide a way for residents to be involved in the community in celebration of Earth Day, build community spirit and a sense of ownership while directly improving the Township of Langley.

GOGREEN FortisBC supports the environment in both operations and services offered. Tom Loski Times Contributor

Earth Day is celebrated annually April 22 with events held across the globe to demonstrate support for protecting the environment. FortisBC recognizes that sound environmental practices make good business sense and that’s why the company is committed to delivering safe, reliable energy in an environmentally responsible way to all of the communities we serve. We look for ways to support the environment in our operations and with services that we provide to our customers. One simple way customers can help the environment is to consider our paperless billing option, a fast and simple way to save paper and ultimately our forests. When customers go paperless, their bill is delivered directly to their email address as a PDF file attached to the email. The eBill service is a fast, easy and environmentally friendly way for customers to access both their electricity and natural gas bill. Another simple way customers can look at reducing their carbon footprint is through rebates and financial incentives offered as part of our PowerSense and Energy Efficiency and Conservation programs. . Through FortisBC’s PowerSense programs, electricity customers saved an estimated 32 million kilowatt hours of electricity in 2012. The PowerSense programs helps customers conserve energy and get the most out of their energy dollar by providing both financial incentives and advice on energy efficient technologies and practices.

In 2012, FortisBC’s natural gas Energy Efficiency and Conservation programs helped residential, commercial and industrial customers save more than 360,000 gigajoules of natural gas, enough energy to heat some 4,100 homes in one year. Renewable natural gas is a B.C.-made, carbon neutral energy source. The methane gas used to produce renewable natural gas comes from organic waste found at local landfills and farms. Instead of escaping into the atmosphere as a harmful greenhouse gas, it’s captured, cleaned and added to our pipeline, giving our customers a renewable energy source. For about $5 more per month on their natural gas bill, customers can designate 10 per cent of their natural gas use as renewable. We’ll then inject an equivalent amount into our system. To date, more than 60 businesses and close to 3,800 residential customers have signed up to be part of the renewable natural gas program. Helping customers conserve energy is one of the most cost effective ways for us to meet future needs. And by making thoughtful energy choices — whether it’s switching to paperless billing, installing energy efficient lighting or upgrading to a high-efficiency natural gas furnace — you’re supporting the environment. Tom Loski is the vice president of customer service at FortisBC.

GOGREEN Environmental Education Begins in the Classroom Kristyl ClarK Times Contributor

When it comes to saving the Earth, there is no shortage of superheroes throughout the Langley School District. From elementary and high school students to teachers and staff, plenty of hands are helping steer the new three-stream recycling program towards a greener future. The program, launched in January of 2012, comes hot off the heels of a successful pilot at Fort Langley Elementary and Walnut Grove Secondary. Instead of throwing away trash in traditional garbage bins, students and teachers are now disposing trash in green bins for food scraps and organic waste, blue bins for recyclables, and black bins for everything else. With waste collection tipping fees expected to rise, the program will avoid future increases in school district costs as well as educate students on environmental awareness. Currently, 84 per cent of schools are active participants, according to Saeideh Riseh, the Langley School District’s master of clean energy engineering. “Some of them are going above and beyond the requirement for the program – Others are still doing the best they can to fully implement the program and educate it to their students and staff,” she noted. Douglas Park Community School students and teachers have had no problem embracing the new program – the school already had a similar waste-sorting system in place, which was initiated four-and-a-half years ago by two of its teachers. “Recycling is a pretty big deal around here,” said Ralph Bereska, principal of the Langley City school, who recently played the role of a soft plastics fairy in a skit for students about protecting the planet. “We have recycling rangers – students from

various grades – who help out and separate the garbage into the proper bins... The students really get after each other if they see someone putting something in the wrong container.” Along with the basics like reading, writing and arithmetic, Bereska says educating students on the importance of recycling is vital. “We have more and more packaging than ever before and the problem is we are running out of places to put it. It’s good for kids to know the situation won’t get better and for kids to see we take pride in the appearance of our school and playground.” Out in the Township of Langley, Fort Langley Elementary – one of the program’s pilot schools – has also been going above and beyond the call of duty to protect the planet. “Our youngsters are very keen and are always looking for new ways to help the environment,” said Fort Langley Elementary Principal Phillis Giovani, who notes the task doesn’t have to be a bore. “We are really having a fun time with it with all kinds of events like our ‘Litterless Lunch Challenge,’ cell phone and battery drives, as well as participating in the Beauty and Bath Brigade. We’ll also be helping clean up the streets for Pitch-In Canada.” Giovani also stressed the importance of environmental awareness at an early age. “We have to take care of our Earth and teach our children to do it so they can take care it we are gone – they are going to inherit our world.” Langley Fundamental Middle Secondary School has also been active on educating students and raising awareness about recycling. They have several plans in the works for Earth Week, such as having recycle boxes for collecting: glasses, phones, CDs, etc., as well as Turning Lights Off day, promoting reusable water bottles and having related friendly competitions.

Arabian nights Langley Fundamental Middle and Secondary School presents Aladdin Jr. from April 25 to May 4

H

Magic carpet, Genie and the rest of the LFMSS cast are ready to welcome audiences to their performances of Aladdin Jr. beginning on April 25.

submitted photo

eeere’s Genie! Langley Fundamental Middle and Secondary School’s three wishes are being granted as they present Disney’s Aladdin Jr. this week. The first wish is that a cast of Grade 6 to 12 students would prepare a dynamic, fun-filled drama suitable for all ages. The second, that a whole army of volunteers could come together to present something beyond their wildest imaginings. And third, that the crowds would come to enjoy their show. So far, two of these wishes have been granted and you are invited to help grant the third wish by attending Aladdin. Originally one of the tales of the Arabian 1001 Nights, the Disney stage adaptation tells the story of a ‘street rat’ Aladdin who meets Princess Jasmine and unrealistically hopes to win her affection. He is thrown in to a cave where, upon rubbing the magic lamp, a genie appears and offers to grant him three wishes. Wishing to be a prince so he can woo the princess he is transformed in to Prince Ali. The evil villain Jafar and his parrot sidekick, Iago, scheme to take over the kingdom from the Sultan and marry his daughter

Jasmine against her will. “Once again, I am really impressed with how our community can work together to stage a show that is of such high quality,” said the play’s producer, Steve Thompson. “Watching our parent and community volunteers direct the singing and acting has been very fulfilling.” “We’ve seen regular everyday students transform into evil royal Viziers, squawking parrots, magic carpets that dance, and crazy comical genies,” added director Dianna Fast. “We couldn’t have picked a more exciting and fun musical to perform. The characters in Aladdin are hilarious and larger than life.” Diyana Ramdour, who performs the role of Jasmine, describes her character as “an exuberant young woman who wants to explore the ‘real world’ beyond her sheltered palace life to find her one true love. “I think many girls in our audience are going to relate to her. Definitely.” Meanwhile, Nathan Stein is embracing his character’s evil streak. “Playing a villain like Jafar is fantastic,” he said. “I get to scheme diabolical plans with a parrot and then sing about it. “There’s also the cape. You haven’t lived until you’ve worn a cape.” The show runs at Langley Fundamental Middle and Secondary School, 21250 42 Ave., Thursday to Saturday evenings at 7 p.m. with a Saturday matinee at 1 p.m. April 25 to April 27 and May 2 to May 4. Tickets are $12 for adults or $10 for seniors 65-plus or children 12 and under. Book your tickets online at www. aladdinmusical.ca or call the box office at 778-775-8843. Tickets may be purchased at the school during box office hours or held for pick up and payment up to 30 minutes before the show.

Langley residents really seem to be digging community gardens

I

n the good old days, everyone gardened. Often it was a matter of survival. Over time, dirt under the fingernails went out of fashion. I’m happy to announce that digging in the dirt is in style again. The renewed interest in gardening comes at a time when many of us live in places where gardening is not an option. Many have little or no yard space. Community gardens have been developed to address this modern challenge. The basic idea is to set up garden plots that community members can lease. Gardeners plant seeds in spring, tend their plants all summer and then harvest their own fresh produce. At Trinity Western University, a small group of students lead by the environmental club president, Trish Buhler got the idea to start a community garden. In the spring of 2009 they broke ground, planting a seed that would grow an awful lot over the next four seasons. According to Chris Hall, the garden logistics manager, the garden has grown in many ways since the spring of 2009. “The garden provides a place where even folks like me with relatively little experience have a chance to try their hand at growing their own food.” Yet the garden has been about much more than just growing vegetables. “People bring their kids here and the kids really enjoy helping their parents out,” Hall continued. “Instead of playing video games at home, these kids are outside getting in touch with nature.”

DAvID CLEMENTS There are also social aspects. Hall shared that at times during the summer, gardeners would linger far longer than they needed in order to accomplish their weeding and watering. Why be so hasty to leave a bucolic site like this on a sunny summer

evening, when you can hang out and chat with your fellow gardeners? The community garden is becoming a community unto itself. And the TWU community garden is only one of many in the Langley area. LEPS manages community gardens in Walnut Grove and Murrayville and many other community gardens operate in the Langley area and beyond. I was at the dedication of another

You & The Law

PRESENTS Employee fired after lured away from good job Luring an employee away from their previous job can cost the employer more if the employee is later wrongfully fired. Consider two recent cases from BC’s Court of Appeal. Ronald J had a good job as a regional truck manager at a transport company. He was responsible for some 200 to 250 employees, administered a $35 million budget, and reported directly to the vice-president. He earned $75,000 a year, took eight weeks of annual holidays, and had the use of a company vehicle. This all came to an end, however, when another truck dealership in the same city enticed him to come work for them instead. The idea was that Ronald would become the city branch manager, after first gaining experience as a salesman. He’d earn $100,000 a year once he became manager, which he thought would occur within several months. But he’d start off at $4,700 a month. Unfortunately, the new truck dealership became unhappy with his performance and Ronald was never promoted. Almost four years later, he was told his salary structure would change to $2,000 a month plus commission and one of the owners would become branch manager instead. He quit as a result of being effectively let go, and sued the truck dealership for wrongful dismissal. The court considered how much “notice” Ronald should have been given. If an employee is wrongfully dismissed, he or she is entitled to “reasonable notice” or a severance amount equal to this notice period. A very rough guideline is one month’s notice for each year worked (to a maximum of around 24 months). In Ronald’s case, he had only worked at the truck dealership for four years, so four months’ severance would otherwise have been appropriate. But many factors must be looked at when determining a severance amount – including whether the employee was lured away from

another job. Said the court: “…it would be unfair to fix the notice period on the basis of [Ronald’s] years of employment with the defendant. The fact is that the plaintiff was induced to leave a senior position… [where] he had worked for 21 years… The circumstances of this case are such that the notice period should be at the very high end of the range, namely 24 months.” Ronald’s income was $66,000 at the time, so his judgment was for $132,000 (minus the amount he earned during the 24-month period). In the other case, Bruce G had worked for a stock brokerage firm for 13 years, earning between $250,000 and $300,000, when he was recruited by an investment firm. He was told he’d be a candidate for sales manager and his position at the firm would be secure. Later, he was also dissuaded from accepting a competing job elsewhere. But when the investment firm was reorganized some five years later, Bruce was let go. The BC Court of Appeal increased his notice from 12 months to 13 months, partly because Bruce was “induced to leave secure employment on the representation of job security at his new firm.” This increase was important because it entitled him to share in the firm’s IPO offering which happened during this last month. He received judgment for over $425,000, plus participation in the IPO share offering. Other factors in addition to inducement are also considered when determining fair compensation if wrongfully fired. For advice, consult your lawyer.

Canadians have a rich history of volunteering and community involvement. More than 13.3 million Canadian volunteers are everywhere on the front lines of all of our community services – community health care, heritage

and arts, maintenance of green space, disaster relief, volunteer fire-fighting, coaching your son or daughter's ball team – the list is endless. The work of the volunteer is essential. National Volunteer Week (NVW) pays tribute to the millions of

Canadian volunteers who donate their time and energy. NVW is the biggest celebration of volunteers and volunteerism this country has and Volunteer Canada is taking the lead on the celebrations again this year. National Volunteer Week,

April 21-27, is an opportunity to thank and celebrate the incredible contributions by volunteers. The next time you meet a volunteer, take the time to thank them for their time and express to them how much you appreciate their efforts.

Versatile Mayorga helped put Walnut Grove Gators over the top Gary ahuja Times Sports

Moving across the country can be hard enough for a teenager, but imagine being an elite basketball player and you are leaving one of the province’s top teams. That was the situation Josh Mayorga found himself in last summer. Mayorga was a key player on the H.B. Beal senior boys basketball team, which was a provincial semifinalist in his Grade 11 year. But instead of preparing for his senior season and another crack at the gold medal, Mayorga was readying for a move west from London, Ont. to B.C. “I thought it would be worse (leaving) but my coaches here and my teammates made it really easy,” Mayorga explained. “They were really welcoming. It wasn’t hard at all.” Mayorga spent part of the summer emailing back and forth with Walnut Grove Gators coach George Bergen, his soon-to-be coach. And after arriving in Langley, one of the first things he did was check out his new team training. So what were his first impressions? “They reminded me a lot of Beal,” he said. “And I thought it would be a good spot for me to fit in.” But Mayorga, who turns 18 on May 1, did more than just fit in. “I think he was kind of shy and felt out the ropes a little bit but he fit in fairly quickly,” Bergen said. “Part of that is his personality, he is just a real good guy.” The other reason Mayorga fit in so well with the Gators was the fact he had game. “( Josh) is an outstanding rebounder; he is a very good defender on bigs in the post and he can really pass the ball,” Bergen said. “And he has excellent hands: he can do a lot of things because his hands are quick and gets a lot of deflections and steals. And he can block shots. “He has got a real good feel for the game.” Mayorga played a key role in helping the Gators get over the hump. In 2012, Walnut Grove lost by a single point in the finals of the B.C. AAA boys basketball finals to the Terry Fox Ravens. But this year, the team capped off their season with a 59-53 victory over the White Rock Christian Warriors in the provincial championship final. “What stood out about Josh, besides his abilities, were his poise, his confidence and his calmness,” Bergen said. “He just played calm in many respects, never really got flustered by a lot of things that happen.” Over the four games, Mayorga averaged nearly 13 points, 10.5 rebounds, three steals and 1.5 assists per game en route to being named a tournament first team all-star.

Gary AHUJA/Langley Times

Walnut Grove’s Josh Mayorga shoots over top of White Rock Christian Academy’s Vartan Tanielian during the Fraser Valley championship final. The Gators won this game 73-64 and then were victorious 59-53 two weeks later in the provincial championship finals over the same Warriors squad. He was also named MVP for his team at the BC Boys Basketball All-Star game, held Sunday night at the Langley Events Centre. Mayorga prides himself on his ability to contribute in more ways than one. “A little bit of everything,” he described about his game. “I like to be as versatile as I can and do what the coaches ask of me. “Do my best at whatever I have to do.” He credits his older brother, Arnold, for helping

hone his game. Despite the five-year age gap, the two had some heated battles on the court. “He never took it easy on me,” Mayorga said about his older brother. “(Arnold) was older and stronger and better. Then you play competition your age, and things get a little easier.” With his high school playing days behind him, Mayorga is hoping to stay in the game at a university in B.C.
