MLA could stay on Pitt council Doug Bing wouldn’t take municipal salary, though by M oni sha M ar t in s staff reporter
The MLA-elect for Maple Ridge-Pitt Meadows won’t collect two taxpayerfunded salaries if he stays on as a councillor for the city. Doug Bing hasn’t decided yet whether he’ll complete his third term as a member of Pitt Meadows council, but promised to forgo his salary – $24,780 in 2012 – if he does. “I have a problem with people double-dipping, especially if people are working for the public,” said Bing, comparing his situation to a person who retires from a job, then gets hired as a consultant. “To get two salaries doesn’t seem right.” As MLA, Bing will make a base salary of $101,859, which kicks in once he’s sworn in mid-June (retroactive to the date of election – May 14). Lynn O’Laughlin outside Ridge Meadows Hospital, from where her mother was transferred, she says, without her knowledge.

Mom vanishes from hospital bed Lynn O’Laughlin thought her mother had died
by Nei l Corbe tt staff reporter
Lynn O’Laughlin walked into Ridge Meadows Hospital to visit her elderly mother on May 15, but found her bed empty, the room cleared of all her things. Her first thought was that the 78-year-old, who had suffered from an infection, had passed away during the night. The first
people she spoke with at the hospital couldn’t answer what had happened to her. Finally, she learned that her mother had been transferred to Langley Memorial Hospital, one of five patients on the Path unit (Patient Assessment and Transition to Home) who had been part of the move. “To freak us out with that is horrible,” she said. “I thought mom had passed away. She had a fever before the move, and still wasn’t 100 per cent since her fall.” The Path ward is where patients

“How hard is it to pick up the phone and phone the families,” she asks. Asked why her mother would be moved, she was told that the beds were needed. O’Laughlin said her mom’s case worker told her that it is not his responsibility to phone families about such transfers. When she saw her mom, she found that she was still feverish. “When I found out that she had a fever when they transferred her, I couldn’t believe it,” said O’Laughlin. see Hospital, p10

go prior to going home or to a different facility. She had been in hospital six weeks, and on the Path unit for two. O’Laughlin complained that she should have been informed. Her mother has the onset of dementia, and the move would be a confusing trial for her. In any event, she would have been leaving the ward soon, scheduled to move into Willow Manor on June 1. O’Laughlin has power of attorney for her mother, and equates her role to the guardianship a parent has of a child, so she should have been called.

Former Maple Ridge mayor fights back Gordy Robson to file counterclaim against district over golf course by M o ni s ha M a r tin s staff reporter
A former Maple Ridge mayor who is being sued by the district for operating a golf course in violation of current zoning has pledged to recoup the losses he’s suffered as a result of the lawsuit. In a response filed Wednesday, Gordy and Mary Robson call for lawsuit to be dismissed with “costs.” The Robsons’ lawyer, Jonathan Baker, believes the district’s notice of claim constitutes “an abuse of public office.” “There’s no doubt about that,” said Gordy Robson. The civil suit, filed two weeks ago, alleges the Robsons are in contravention of a district bylaw and must permanently cease operating Heather Hills Golf Course. It seeks the removal of all golf-course related infrastructure, including the club house, tents, golf carts, as well as food and beverage services. Robson claims he’s already lost business because of the municipal lawsuit. B.C. Golf Magazine planned to feature Heather Hills, but called off an interview scheduled for this week. Two charity tournaments have also been cancelled. “It’s affecting business hugely. We’ve had about 100 calls asking if we are still open,” said Robson, who began constructing the golf course just before he became mayor in 2005. “Because the district chose to use civil court, now I have the right to sue each of them individually. There is a claim for damages coming and it’s going to be in the hundreds of thousands.” Located at Webster’s Corners on 117th Avenue, the property lies within the provincially protected Agricultural Land Reserve and is currently zoned one family rural residential under the district’s bylaw. The district sent a letter to the Robsons in February, asking them to voluntarily stop operating the golf course. The legal action is being pursued because the Robsons’ did not comply, said district lawyer
Colleen Flanagan/THE NEWS
The Robsons built Heather Hills Golf Course in 2005, just before Gordy became mayor. Reece Anderson. A statement of defence notes the district had an opportunity to clarify the property’s zoning in 2011, when the Robsons appealed to the B.C. Property Assessment Board after the golf course was reclassified from “farm class” to “outdoor recreational.” “They chose not to do Robson anything,” Robson said. The golf course is operated from spring through the end of summer as part of the nonprofit Heather Hills Farm Society. Today, the Robsons raise 27 sheep on the property and are testing a genetically modified species of blight-resistant hazelnuts they hope to eventually plant there. The wool from the sheep goes to local weavers. The animals are eventually sold for meat. Charities and church groups often use the golf course for fundraisers, with Robson estimating the society has raised more than $100,000 since Heather Hills opened.
The family also uses the land to promote farming, while using revenue generated from the golf course to support the non-profit society’s work with youth advocacy, sports and community groups. The “club house” the district wants removed is a tent structure, while the “food and beverage service” consists of a small bar fridge with pop and water, as well as an assortment of packaged nuts. Robson says he has no plans to stop operating the golf course. “The only thing they have wanted to talk about is discontinuing my operation,” he added. “I’ve got a million dollars in this, and besides, it’s a good thing.” It’s not the first time Robson has fought the District of Maple Ridge in court. Robson sued the district over the privatepublic-partnership downtown redevelopment project – which featured an office tower, library, arts centre and leisure centre. He won and the P3 agreement was declared illegal. The District of Maple Ridge, meanwhile, is defending its decision to settle the bylaw breach in court.
Mayor Ernie Daykin stressed court action is not being pursued for “political” or “personal” reasons. “It isn’t, [as] though, we just decided in February. We’ve been talking about it for a while,” he said, noting the decision to file a civil claim in Supreme Court was done after much discussion with legal counsel. “The zoning that he’s under does not permit a golf course. We have bylaws in place for a reason.” The district suggests the Robsons could apply for rezoning, a route they are not willing to take. “It’s would kill us if we rezone,” said Robson, who has a business license for agri-tourism. Rezoning would mean the property, currently assessed as “farm class,” would be taxed as a commercial venture and make Heather Hills too expensive to operate. “We couldn’t afford to maintain the property as it is. We have found a viable way to keep the land green forever,” Robson added. The owners of Hacker’s Haven, a Par 3 ninehole golf course on 240th Street, support the district’s civil suit. Hacker’s Haven was built on agricultural land, but its former owners applied to have the property rezoned before beginning construction. John and Helen Kastelein purchased the property in 1981. “When I bought it, it was already a golf course. But I know that the fellow that developed it, it took him five years to get permission for rezoning,” said John Kastelein, whose property is taxed as recreational commercial. “[Robson] just goes ahead and does it anyway.” Kastelein believes the district should have acted sooner, especially since Robson was working on the course while he was mayor. “To let him build it and close their eyes to the fact and now they’ve come heavy-handed down. “Gimme a break. It’s been a sore point for years,” he added. The district assures taxpayers the lawsuit won’t cost them millions. Maple Ridge budgets around $200,000 per year for legal issues. District spokesperson Fred Armstrong said if the municipality anticipates a civil claim, its finance department works that into the budget. “It won’t be an outrageous expenditure.”
Bing to meet with premier-elect for ‘job interview’ Bing from front
Bing ended the New Democratic Party’s eight-year hold on the riding by defeating Elizabeth Rosenau by 681 votes, according to preliminary results. Although Bing previously said he would resign his council seat, he is now waiting to discuss the matter with his council colleagues to determine the best course of action. On Wednesday, Bing and the new Liberal caucus gathered for an orientation, and he has a meeting scheduled with premier-elect Christy Clark on Monday. The meeting with Clark is “like a
job interview,” to help her figure out who to include her new cabinet. Following those meetings, Bing will have a clearer idea of his role in Victoria. “We have decided to wait until next week,” Bing said of the scheduled meeting with council. Meanwhile, he’s already scouting locations for his constituency office and plans to locate it on the west side of the riding. He’ll be reusing the furniture from outgoing NDP MLA Michael Sather’s office. Bing isn’t the only MLA-elect faced with the prospect of jug-
gling two jobs. A total of four sitting mayors and eight municipal councillors were elected to the Liberal team, an outcome that could trigger by-elections across the province, from Dawson Creek to Surrey. Some have already made up their minds. Surrey Coun. Marvin Hunt plans to stay on as long as he can do both jobs to avoid a by-election, which could cost the city as much as $800,000. Langley Mayor Peter Fassbender is giving up his seat, while Abbotsford Coun. Simon Gibson is doing the same, but waiting until January so he
won’t trigger a by-election. Pitt Meadows Mayor Deb Walters would prefer to see Bing stay on to avoid a byelection that will cost the city around $15,000. “We do have Bing to find out what’s happening and make a decision when we know more,” said Walters. If a by-election is held, Walters isn’t
worried that she will lose a crucial vote on council. “I’m happy to work with whoever gets elected, if we have a by-election. I’m not worried either way,” she added. Other MLA-elects weighing the prospects of two jobs are councillors Scott Hamilton (Delta), Greg Kyllo (Sicamous), Linda Larson (Oliver), Linda Reimer (Coquitlam), Jackie Tegart (Ashcroft) and mayors Jordan Sturdy (Pemberton), Mike Bernier (Dawson Creek) and Dan Ashton (Penticton). – with files from Black Press

SLOW DOWN
A number of people that read this article on a regular basis will contact me either by phone or email and ask questions about their vehicle, some just want to be reassured about something, others have ideas they think would be good for a future article. I enjoy talking to you all and encourage you to keep it up, I like that part of the job as I tend to learn quite a bit about people. One of the most common topics of conversation around the old Westside “Hot stove” is the amount of uptight, got to get there in a hurry no matter how many people I cut off, drivers! These road warriors are hard to ignore when you’re looking out our office window at Lougheed Hwy. Seems us old timers are more experienced with the consequences of driving with little to no regard for the rules of the road or the safety of the other people on it. This is a problem that touches everyone, as we all know someone who is guilty of driving like an idiot, they’re everywhere. You know the type, they think if there are two lanes and you’re in the left lane doing the speed limit that you’re in fact restricting their self-proclaimed right to break the law and speed. Your impeding traffic flow by doing the speed limit and it is you that are wrong, it is they the speeders that the road was built for and you had better get out of the way. It’s referred to as Road Rage, I refer to it as the spoiled brat syndrome or the me, myself and I attitude. I have gathered my data on this group sitting in my perch high above most traffic in my pickup truck, and sitting in my office located just east of the intersection of Lougheed and 207th. It’s no surprise to me that we’re dealing with mostly young, aggressive males, and some females too. What is surprising is seeing this problem creep up into the middle age drivers as well. I too was a member of this fraternity until I finally grew up or grew old, whichever you want to believe. The point is everybody eventually grows up and starts driving responsibly, the problem lies in the statistics. Too many people are dying or are left seriously injured while waiting for these road warriors to slow down, use their turn signals and drive with respect. What can we do about it? Keep hounding the people that we know that drive this way, and it wouldn’t hurt to write down the odd licence number while you’re at it. Well time to get down off this soap box and get back to my toolbox. I know two people that are cursing me right now, but they’re both good guys, both the same age and both will soon round that corner into maturity. I just hope they live that long. Got a car problem, feel free to give us a call.
Maple Ridge man stranded in Edmonton hospital Injured in boating crash in Fort St. John by Ne i l Corbet t staff reporter
A Maple Ridge man who is still recovering from lifethreatening injuries was discharged from an Alberta hospital with no way to get home. Alain Bourdeau had been taking a vocational course in northern B.C., at Northern Lights College in Fort St. John. After class on May 9, he and an instructor were doing some recreational boating on the Peace River when their boat slammed into a stump. Bourdeau was taken to hospital in Fort Saint John, but was transferred by air ambulance to the University of Alberta Hospital in Edmonton. He could barely breath, and was found to have multiple broken ribs, a punctured lung and a collapsed lung. When his wife, Linda Findlay, flew from Maple Ridge to be with him, she found him with a breathing tube and other tubes in his chest. He spent eight days in intensive care. As he started to recover from the accident, Findlay asked how they would get home, and says she was assured that he would be transferred to a B.C. hospital, closer to home.

Alain Bourdeau was transferred by helicopter to the University of Alberta Hospital. But they were shocked when, on Wednesday, he was discharged from hospital, without the benefit of a transfer. He cannot fly, because his lung injuries cannot take the altitude – he could only go by air in a helicopter. Findlay was faced with a 26-hour bus ride, and a weakened husband who could only hobble about a block, with the benefit of a walker. She determined to stay an extra day in an outpatient’s residence. She hoped he could regain some
strength. “Because we’re out of province, we can’t get a wheelchair, a walker or even a cane,” she said. However, he woke up Thursday morning in extreme pain, his bandages soaked in blood, and she took him back to the hospital emergency ward. CTV News Edmonton covered their plight on their Wednesday evening broadcast. Findlay said the public should be made aware of this gap in the health care system.
Thank you.

“It might not help us, but maybe it will help the next guy.” She said Bourdeau was taking a vocational rehabilitation program in oil and gas field operation, scheduled to wrap up June 4, but that too has been interrupted. His income has been cut off, and she has missed a mortgage payment dealing with their situation. “He’s pretty depressed,” she said. What she wants is a hospital transfer. “We’re stuck in the middle.” Alberta Health Services released this statement: “We treat patients from other provinces just as we would treat any patient – with the most appropriate care and treatment possible, to ensure the best outcome possible. That is our commitment to any patient, whether they be from Alberta, B.C., Saskatchewan, etc. “When a patient has been discharged, it is their responsibility to then make arrangements to return home. We encourage patients to make arrangements with family and friends for travel back to their home. “If a patient needs followup care in another hospital, whether it be in Alberta or another province, transport will be provided for that patient. The cost will be recouped from the patient’s home province.”

Guilty plea in daycare assaults Latif Hamad Tata in custody since Dec. staff reporter
A Maple Ridge man accused of sexually abusing children who attended his wife’s daycare has pleaded guilty to a several charges. Latif Hamad Tata faces four counts each of sexual interference of a person under 16, invitation to sexual touching and sexual assault. He entered pleas to all 12 charges in Port Coquitlam Provincial Court on Wednesday. His lawyer, John Cheevers, did not return a call to comment on the reasons behind Tata’s plea. Neither did Crown Counsel. Tata has been in custody since he was arrested in December. His wife ran Shining Stars Daycare on 122nd Avenue until the allegations against her husband surfaced. The business should not be confused with Shining Stars Montessori Daycare and Preschool in east Maple Ridge. Police allege the young victims were assaulted while at the Tata daycare, which was run out of the basement in the family home. The daycare has since closed and the house has been sold. Tata is scheduled to return to Port Coquitlam Provincial Court in June to fix a date for a sentencing hearing.

Order of priority Doug Bing was elected MLA in Maple RidgePitt Meadows last week. The Liberal candidate and Pitt Meadows councillor defeated Elizabeth Rosenau of the NDP by close to 700 votes. Those in the riding west of 200th Street who cast a ballot for Bing did so expecting another vote in short order, a byeletion to elect a replacement for him on Pitt Meadows council. But the third-term councillor has yet to decide if he will resign from his municipal responsibilities, which is odd. Surely there are others in the city capable and willing to take on the part-time job. There is no reason for Bing to remain on council other than other members don’t want to risk losing another Liberal hand in the air. Members of both Pitt Meadows and Maple Ridge councils were visible Liberals during the provincial election. Maple Ridge Coun. Cheryl Ashlie was Bing’s campaign manager. Pitt Meadows Mayor Deb Walters visited Bing’s campaign office on election night, as did Maple Ridge Mayor Ernie Daykin and other members of both councils. Bing served Pitt Meadows well on council, and no doubt will continue to do so for Maple Ridge-Pitt Meadows as MLA. But that is his job now. Voters didn’t elect a part-time MLA. It pays a full-time salary – more than $100,000 a year – and a pension. The job of councillor pays a bit as well, although Bing has said he’d forgo that salary if he stays on council. That’s seems honourable, but it’s not the point. The learning curve of a new MLA is steep, as former NDP representative Michael Sather said when first elected. Bing will have to adjust, and serve his constituents in Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows on provincial matters – not municipal ones. Such issues could come into conflict, no? If Bing had informed voters of his intention to remain on council, would they have elected him? If he wanted to stay on Pitt Meadows council, he shouldn’t have run for a seat in Victoria. Bing needs to get his priorities straight. – The News

Why I’ve never owned a new car “... people who give cars a name and gender hesitate to replace them” – Jesse Chandler, psychology department, University of Michigan.
J
esse Chandler calls these folks “anthropomorphists” – people who subscribe human attributes to Along the Fraser inanimate objects Jack Emberly they think of as close friends. My pal Neil calls a moth-eaten sweater ‘Paul Bunyan.’ He wears it exclusively around the house since his wife threatened to burn Paul the next time she caught him outside. Another friend has a ceramic elephant named, ‘Sabu’ (Jungle Book), and Bill, a hockey nut, has sunk into ‘Gretzky,’ his broken-down couch, for decades. I’m an anthropomorphist with cars. ‘Nancy’ was my blue ’53 Ford Prefect sedan. She delivered me faithfully to classes at UBC until a friend’s thoughtless act sent her to the wrecker. We were returning from summer jobs at Barkerville at the end of a hot August. Nancy desperately needed time to cool down. John couldn’t wait. He filled her radiator. I can still hear the horrible cracking when cold creek water split Nancy’s engine block in half. I haven’t spoken to John since. Anthropomorphists are loyal to the end. That’s why I’ve never owned a new car. I extend the life of old ones – friends – with parts unearthed at dealerships, or grave yards called auto wreckers. I made a search recently for my father-inlaw’s brown ’91 Buick Park Avenue, a gift
before he passed away. Dad was an antropomorphist who had a name for the car, but kept it to himself. I call the Buick ‘Parker.’ In its day, he was a luxury car - automatic windows, leather interior, stereo CD. Last month, Parker and I set off to Dewey Griffin Buick in Bellingham to pick up an emergency brake release cable after Parker’s snapped. “Out of stock,” GM in Coquitlam told me. “None in Canada.” My search of wreckers had also been fruitless. I paid one in Coquitlam $80 for a cable, only to discover later, it was frayed. Stave Falls Auto near Mission offered hope. It had a Park Avenue, but “George” thought the brake cable was broken. In Chilliwack, the wrecker had a ’91 Buick “somewhere” in a sea of faceless corpses, but wouldn’t remove the cable, even for a fee. At Griffin GMC, “Joe,” the parts guy, went out of his way to get Parker back on the road. “One in Texas,” Joe exuded, after searching his data base. “Only one on the continental U.S. Here’s their website and part number.” At GMC Texas you enter your name, email, phone, make, model, part number, and state and zip code. B.C. and my postal code were repeatedly rejected, but a patient, GMC Texas was helpful. It gave an example – Montana, and a real zip code. I entered, Washington, and invented a zip similar to the one at Griffin GMC. It was worth a try. Texas had my phone number. Maybe it would call. When I was beginning to think I’d never safely leave Parker on a hill again, it did. The caller display announced, “Texas.” “Need a brake release cable? “ asked the part’s guy. “I got one. Wanna pick ’er up?” “I live in B.C.”
“Where’s ’at, pardner?” “Canada.” “Don’t deliver ta Canada.” “Can you send it to Griffin Buick GMC, Bellingham?” “If they phone, and ask me.” Joe was happy to oblige, and excited when he phoned to say the cable was in. I know Parker was, too. On the way south, his engine hummed to the upscale beat of a Billy Joel tune full of freedom and hope. “We’re all being carried along by the river of dreams,” Billy sang as I tapped on the wheel, and Parker glided down Interstate 5 at 80 mph. He would have done 95 if I’d let him loose. At Griffin GM, Joe firmly shook my hand, then came out to admire Parker. “You know, Joe,” I said, “he also needs horn caps.” They’re the crescent shaped pieces on each side of the steering wheel – inside the air bag assembly. One of Parker’s had snapped off. “I’ll check my data base,” said Joe. “One in Oakland,” he reported cheerfully. “Call ya, when it’s in.” A week later he did. “Sorry, Oakland doesn’t have one after all. None in the U.S.” I remembered Stave Falls had a ’91 Park Avenue. The cable might be broken, but what about the horn caps? I drove over. “Rich,” the lot man, found the car, and gladly removed the parts. Wrong color, but who cares? “Brake cable seems okay, too,” Rich said. “Want it?” “It’s good to have a spare,” I told Parker as we headed home to the sound of Willy Nelson singing, “On the road again.” Thanks Rich, George, and Roy at MinitTune – from antropomorphists – for what you do for us and all the cars we’ve loved, before.

The News/letters Lucky to live in Maple Ridge Editor, The News: Re: Recycling program out of date (Letters, May 22). I just finished entertaining myself reading letters to the editor. From the letter from Cheryl Zandbergen, I learned about the frustrating and time-consuming problems of sorting the recycling things. Personally, I have no problem with it, since I have a plastic box for the newspapers and four large plasticbags: one for flattened-out cartons, one for glass containers, one for tins, and one for plastic containers. Once a weak the recycling truck comes by and the workers are good enough to put the empty box on top of the empty bags to prevent them from blowing away. As for food scraps, they go through the Garburator. All in all, it works fine, and is certainly a whole lot better than the years we used to bring everything to the dump. As for the long letter of Armand Tavish, why too many things to enumerate are amiss with the good City of Pitt Meadows, one would count oneself fortunate to live in Maple Ridge.

Did big media buy B.C. election? Editor, The News: Re: System is broken (News Views, May 22). The News editorial claims the electoral system is broken. Really, what was your first clue? The fact that only 50 per cent of voters bothered to vote? Maybe you should take a little responsibility for that fact, the constant barrage of dirty tricks, multi-millions of dollars of attack ads, slander, character assassination, outrageous lies, deception, misinformation, propaganda, the bending and breaking many of our laws and expenditure of public funds to bribe votes using public employees to do Liberal election work on the public dime, the media’s total bias toward the B.C. Liberals for less than honest or honourable reasons. Let’s call a spade a spade. The owner of the News, David Black, has about the most serious conflict of interest imaginable with his refinery – a pretty well done deal with the election of the B.C. Liberals. Another point made in this editorial is that the present electoral system is an archaic joke. Well, as I remember, it was this same big media that fought against the STV,
I live the good life to be the
best teammate, friend and mother I can be.
THE NEWS/files
Mr. Black’s refinery proposal is a done deal with election of B.C. Liberals. using the same tired, sick tactics we just witnessed for this election to defeat the STV. So once again the media has to take much of the blame for what, for all intents and purposes, is a dictatorship, which is more to the advantage of big money and the people who own and control big media. The people of B.C. will continue to be brainwashed and deceived by the likes of Tom Fletcher in
these right-wing rags, telling us we should not be interested in justice, that it is too expensive and the people of B.C. do not really need to know whether the people in power in this province are criminals or not. And why do we really need to know if development projects will destroy our environment? Really, Mr. Fletcher? You do not even have to write a column.
All we have to do to know your position on any subject is just imagine the most extreme ultraright-wing position on any subject and that is invariably your position. Your insightful comment on the beginning of the end for the old left-right model for B.C. politics is so you. But it is nothing new. It is a very old evil, called dictatorship. The truth is that you, Mr. Black and your big media, big money cohorts bought, thus own this election and, respectively, this government, so you are responsible for every mistake, corruption, insult and injury, not to mention damage that is done to the province of B.C., and it’s people, and ultimately the economy. Not that you care about that, as long as you get your pound of flesh. The fact is that the wealthier and more powerful the corporate media giants have become, the poorer the prospects for participatory democracy and the chance that these big money, big media monopolies’ best interests would be in the people’s best interest is highly improbable.

Senate has to change soon: MP ‘Controversy is hurting party morale’ by Ph i l M e lnych uk staff reporter
The controversy regarding Conservative Sen. Mike Duffy’s expense claims is hurting morale within the party, so improvements are needed, says local MP Randy Kamp. Actually, the Senate has to change soon, or it could disappear, Kamp added, and changes to unelected upper house are already underway. A ruling from the Supreme Court of Canada on reforming the nonelected body in the next year could make the body a little more palatable to the public. The government introduced a bill in 2011, the Senate Reform Act, proposing to limit senators’ terms to nine years and allowing for appointment of senators who’ve been elected in their own provinces. The bill reached second reading before being referred to the courts. “We think that’s constitutional, but the Supreme Court is going to rule on that,” Kamp said. The court also could comment on the option of abolishing the Senate, he added. Efforts also are now underway to reform Senate fiscal management. Kamp agreed the controversy over Duffy’s expense claims, paid by Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s chief of staff Nigel Wright, who recently resigned, has hurt the Conservatives. The only way to remove Duffy from the Senate, who’s resigned from the Conservative caucus, is if he was persuaded to resign. Kamp’s colleague in Coquitlam, Heritage Minister James Moore, has called on Duffy to step down, but Kamp wouldn’t go that far. “It think that’s a decision he’s going to have to make.”

‘I apologize to her even now’ Hospital from front
T:14”
She has asked Fraser Health Authority for a formal response to her complaints, and has been advised that could take as long as 40 days. O’Laughlin said there are other patients at Ridge Meadows Hospital who are more stable, who have no family around them, and asked why they could not be moved. “It’s been very stressful for mom, and for all of us,” she said. “Why was she moved? I just don’t get it.” O’Laughlin returned to Ridge Meadows Hospital on Saturday to complain about the situation, and try to have her mother returned to her hometown hospital. She was told it would be impossible. She walked over to her mom’s former room, and found the three beds still sitting empty. Then, on Thursday, she heard from a physician caring for her mother, who found that the urinary tract infection she had been suffering from was linked to a kidney problem. Her mom has been moved back to a medical

ward in Langley. O’Laughlin wonders why the abdomen scan that revealed the kidney problem was not done in Maple Ridge, and said she will no longer be seeking care at Ridge Meadows Hospital. Asked about this case, Fraser Health spokesperson Tasleem Juma responded that stable patients, as recommended by doctors, are sometimes transferred out of a hospital if there is an issue of capacity. The normal procedure is to notify the family where they will be transferred, and when. “Unfortunately, in this particular case, there was a miscommunication and the family was not notified,” said Juma. “Staff apologized to her [O’Laughlin], and I apologize to her even now.” She said complaints can be made to Fraser Health’s patient care and quality office, and this helps inform changes to the patient-centered model of care.

tor, and get a broad education. Bondar was in school for 12 years, has four degrees, and was the first neurologist in space. It was a “fantastic” meeting, and Bondar’s advice suited Richardson well. She is a french immersion student, who is excited to attend the University of Ottawa because it is one of two places in Canada where she can obtain a sciences degree in French. She won an entrance scholarship, valued at $26,000, to the university, then also won a prestigious $60,000 Schulich Leadership Scholarship. Those are for students studying science, technology, engineering and mathematics, and only 40 are awarded across Canada.

ven among high school graduates with big ambitions, Magdalena Richardson stands out as someone who’s shooting for the stars – literally. The Maple Ridge secondary Grade 12 student wants to be an astronaut. That’s a little like saying you plan to become Prime Minister, and Richardson admits when she says it, “I get quite a few chuckles. But she can talk quite authoritatively on the topic. And, her science education has been launched by $86,000 in academic scholarships from the University of Ottawa. Richardson has been inspired by Canadian astronauts. She heard Chris Hadfield, the first Canadian to walk in space, speak at the American Academy for Advancement of Science Conference in Vancouver. And she met Marc Garneau at Science World – Richardson is part of a group called Future Science Leaders at Science World – “a group for keener kids who are interested in the sciences.” She was struck by how genuine the Canadian spacemen are, and how they love their career. She has always been the student who approaches a teacher after class to talk a little more about an interesting subject, and she went up to the men after their speeches. Garneau, the first Canadian in space and a participant in space shuttle missions, left an impression. He told her that looking at Earth from space changes one’s perspective in a way that can’t be put into words. “The adventurist side of me really loved that, and the poetic side of me really loved that,” she said. “I want to know what that’s like.” They inspired her to follow their career trajectory. She also met Roberta Bondar, Canada’s first female astronaut. Having at that point decided her future was in space, Richardson asked for advice for “a lowly high school student who wants to be an astronaut.” Bondar gave Richardson an interesting and encouraging response – study languages, because it’s important to be a strong communica-
Petals, which is a support to women and children. At school, she is the captain of the debate team and part of the environmental club. She was part of a mock United Nations exercise in Vancouver, and despite being saddled with representing Iraq, she came away with an outstanding delegate certificate. Richardson also loves music, playing French horn in classical band and Alto Sax in the jazz band. She and some friends started a folk rock band called Papineau and the Patriots, in which she pounds on the drums, and can bust out the accordion – she taught herself the latter. “We just play at each others barbecues,” she said. Still, it’s part of an impressive resumé. Ottawa is going to be a big adventure. “I was born in Maple Ridge hospital, and spent my whole life in Maple Ridge,” she said. “It’ll be nice even to experience a real Canadian winter, where it’s not just rain.” She said all the change that’s coming this September hasn’t really hit home, but has reflected on what a financial burden has been lifted off her family. “There were tears in my household when we found out I had this scholarship.”

Man to stand trial for 2012 murder staff reporter
A man accused of murdering another and dumping his body in a Maple Ridge field will face a trial in B.C. Supreme Court. A preliminary inquiry for Adam Deboo concluded last week in Port Coquitlam Provincial Court with a judge ruling there was enough evidence to justify a trial. The evidence presented during the preliminary inquiry is protected by a publication ban. Police allege Deboo killed 26-year-old Brandon Howson on Jan. 31 2012 in Pitt Meadows. Howson’s body was discovered by a passerby around 10:30 a.m., lying face down in a cranberry field at the end of 224th Street, by 144th Avenue.
$1,000 fine and a yearlong recognizance. He was also charged with assault in 2004 for an incident in Squamish. He pleaded guilty and received a $500 fine and yearlong peace bond.
Tricycle stolen Ridge Meadows RCMP are looking for a custom-built tricycle that was stolen from Maple Ridge secondary on Saturday.

Thank you for your patronage! It has been our pleasure to serve the Maple Ridge area these past years. We look forward to see you in our Maple Ridge location for this event.
A resident of Maple Ridge, Deboo, 34, has been in custody since February 2012 when he was charged with second-degree murder. Howson was known to police and awaiting trial on drug trafficking charges at the time of his death. An autopsy conducted on Howson revealed he was attacked with an “edged weapon.” Deboo had just been charged with two counts of assault causing bodily harm and one of assault in connection with incidents in Mission when he was charged with Howson’s murder. He was also facing one count of breaching bail and obstructing a peace officer at Spences Bridge. Deboo pleaded guilty in 2009 to a charge of inflicting injury on a person and received a

son’s bicycle,” said Cpl. Alanna Dunlop. “This dramatically limits the young person’s ability to move about our community freely, and puts a burden on the bike’s owner, as this is very expensive to replace. We are appealing to our citizens to help us in finding this bike so this person will once again be able to be independent.” • Anyone with information about the theft is asked to call Ridge Meadows RCMP 604-463-6251, or Maple Ridge Secondary School at 604-4634175.
Trees recovered Two men pulling, by bikes, a trailer loaded with cedar trees were arrested by police early Wednesday for theft. The men were stopped around 6 a.m. after Ridge Meadows RCMP received a call about “suspicious” people near an industrial area. Officers patrolled the area and found two men on bicycles, pulling a trailer loaded with cedar hedge trees. The men were arrested and the trees were seized by police “This fully illustrates how your police work with all citizens to solve and reduce incidents of crime,” said Cpl. Alanna Dunlop. “We’re sure the owner of these trees will be very grateful to get them back. The two suspects are known to Ridge Meadows RCMP, and both will have to appear in court to answer to this theft.” The men were released on a promise to appear in court. • Anyone with information about theft is asked to call RCMP at 604-463-6251.

Information Meeting
Hammond Stadium Playfield Reconstruction
by Phil M elnyc h u k staff reporter
S
ometimes when you’re young, there’s a bit of a learning curve when picking up a new skill, such as the realization your hands get dirty when you garden. Or the realization that nice flowers and delicious vegetables can spring from tiny seeds almost the size of grains of salt. The discoveries were made at Thursday’s tryout of Maple Ridge’s newest community garden, the Intergenerational Garden, where kindergarten kids from Eric Langton planted petunias, peppers, carrots, kale, lettuce, beans and strawberries in a corner lot at Edge Street and 121st Avenue. “They couldn’t visualize these tiny little seeds growing to be a flower. She was quite amazed to see these tiny seeds,” said John Williams, one of the senior volunteers who is trying to pass on

B.C. drivers going south for cheap gas Staying for other U.S. deals: CTF by J eff Nagel Black Press
Metro Vancouver drivers pay 34 cents a litre more for gas than their Washington State counterparts because of higher taxes here. And the Canadian Taxpayers Federation says the tax gap is drawing more B.C. motorists south, adding to the growing problem of cross-border shopping. “Canadians are voting with their cars and wallets,” said CTF B.C. director Jordan Bateman. “We are stalling our own economic growth with these high gas taxes – not only do they increase the cost of every good and service moved in our

Canadians made 15.4 million trips into Whatcom County last year, the most since 1997 – a statistic Bateman pointed to as evidence of growing cross-border shopping. He likens discount gas to a “gateway drug” that gets Canadians hooked on other cheaper deals available in the U.S. Cheaper dairy prod-

ucts, groceries and consumer goods are all popular buys for drivers heading south to gas up anyway, Bateman said. He called for the elimination of the 6.67 cent per litre carbon tax and the federal GST, which is applied not only on the gas but on top of the other taxes as well. TransLink also gets 17 cents in tax on every litre of gas sold in Metro Vancouver. Gas prices jumped this month to just under $1.50 per litre, close to an all-time record.
ICBC stresses cycling safety ICBC is urging drivers and cyclists to take care as more riders take to the roads with the approach of summer weather. More than 600 cyclists are injured and four die each year in the Lower Mainland in the peak cycling period of May to October. Across B.C. close to 150 cyclists are injured in each of those months, on average. “As a cyclist, I never assume drivers can see me and use multiple lights on the front and rear of my bike,” said ICBC director of road safety John Dickinson. “When I’m driving, I give cyclists plenty of room so they’re able to react to the unexpected – such as a car door suddenly opening into their path.” According to ICBC stats for 2012, the top spot for crashes involving cyclists in Metro Vancouver is the south end of the Burrard Street bridge, followed by other busy intersections in east Vancouver or downtown along Burrard Street. The urge to bike gets a push each year with Bike To Work Week promotions May 27 to June 2. Bike helmet use is required by law and prevents up to 85 per cent of serious injuries. Riders are urged to position themselves where other drivers can easily see them. Always shoulder check and hand signal well in advance of any turn. Drivers are reminded they must yield to cyclists the same as other vehicles.

God has given me a love for people Looki ng Bac k by Brad Warner
I
don’t know when I first became a skeptic as a child. I do, however, remember at around the age of eight attending my maternal grandfather’s funeral. My paternal grandmother said, “Your grandfather has gone to a better place. He’s gone to be with God in heaven”. I responded matter-of-factly: “There is no God and there is no heaven.” I remember graduating from high school as an atheist. I simply didn’t believe that any sort or type of god existed. I did well in school and I believed that intelligent people are atheists. And I believed that Christians were stupid and the bible was a book of fables and stories. I wasn’t
interested in what religion offered. But I had a good friend who I had known since the beginning of high school. I knew he went to church, but we never talked about it. In fact, I avoided the subject. And much to my displeasure, he invited me to church a couple of months before graduation. I was terrified to go. I had seen various religious people on TV and, frankly, they scared me. Some still do. It was a couple of months before I entered university. I had only been to a church for a couple of funerals and weddings my entire life. But because of a friendship, I decided I would check it out. And before the service, I was given a bible. We read something from the Old Testament. I am not even sure where it was from,STARTING perhaps from G Isaiah. Something inside me clicked. I

had never personally investigated the claims of Christ or any other religion. And I decided I would be open enough to check this out. This was a couple of months before I started SFU. I began a two-year search. Gradually over time I became convinced that God existed, that Jesus was more than a man, and that my real need was forgiveness and transformation. I came to believe that my purpose in life was a relationship with Him. Looking back, I now believe that God changed my life. One fairly obvious way is that I once was skeptical, but now I’m convinced. One surprising way that God has changed my life is that God has given me a love for people that I didn’t have before, especially for bchonda.com the skeptics out there.

Monday to Sunday To meet the demand for electricity and improved reliability, BC Hydro will be making upgrades to the electrical system along Dewdney Trunk Road—from 232nd Street to the Stave Falls Dam.
0%
To help minimise impacts, the project has been divided into two phases:
Financing
Phase 1: 272nd Street to Stave Falls Dam •
May 21, 2013 to October 31, 2013
•
9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
Phase 2: 232nd Street to 272nd Street •
May 27, 2013 to October 31, 2013
•
7:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. while crews work from 232nd Street to 240th Street
•
9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. while crews work from 240th Street to 272nd Street
28.4 Horsepower
Multiple crews will work concurrently in multiple locations along Dewdney Trunk Road as they replace several utility poles and upgrade electrical equipment. This work will require flaggers to direct vehicles around the bucket trucks, which may cause temporary traffic delays.
Separate forward and reverse pedals on the uncluttered platform are easy to operate and offer infinite ground speeds. Increasing engine speed is as simple as pushing the pedal. We also moved the brake pedals to the left side of the platform for ease in using the steering brakes. Call today!
BC Hydro recognizes the inconvenience this work may cause and we will strive to complete the work as quickly and safely as possible. If you have any questions or would like more information about this project, please contact BC Hydro at 1 866 647 3334. 3869

‘Gold-plated’ pensions a balm for B.C. election losers Retireees, defeated MLAs to share $26 million in payouts by Jef f Nage l Black Press
A long list of departing MLAs – both Liberals and New Democrats – are now in line for lucrative pensions, whether they retired voluntarily or were defeated at the polls. The Canadian Taxpayers Federation esti-
mates the total payouts to MLAs who didn’t win or seek re-election could top $26 million. The government injects $4 for every dollar politicians contribute, and the resulting pensions are also inflation adjusted. “The MLA pension payout ATM is spitting out cash at a rate taxpayers can only dream of,” CTF B.C. director Jordan Bateman said. “A dozen former MLAs will soon join the million-dollar pension club – while most of us
are scraping together every nickel we can find for our own retirements.” Departing NDP MLAs in the Lower Mainland and their estimated payouts to age 80 include: SurreyFleetwood NDP MLA Jagrup Brar ($555,000), Delta North NDP MLA Guy Gentner ($500,000), CoquitlamMaillardville’s Diane Thorne ($461,000) and Pitt Meadows-Maple Ridge MLA Michael Sather ($490,000). Several others, including
Port Moody-Coquitlam by-election winner Joe Trasolini, get nothing because they have less than the six years of service required to qualify. Outgoing Liberal MLAs include: Gordon Campbell in Vancouver-Point Grey ($1.7 million), Colin Hansen in Vancouver-Quilchena ($1.54 million), Barry Penner in Chilliwack-Hope ($1.35 million), Kevin Falcon in Surrey-Cloverdale ($1.09 million), Randy Hawes in Abbotsford-
MAKE YARD WORK
Mission ($847,000), Harry Bloy in BurnabyLougheed ($720,000), Chilliwack’s John Les ($835,000), SurreyTynehead’s Dave Hayer ($824,000) and Joan McIntyre in West Vancouver-Sea to Sky ($568,000). Defeated Abbotsford independent John Van Dongen, who served for years as a B.C. Liberal, exits with a pension valued at $1.48 million. First-year payouts range from $30,000 to as much as $98,000 in Campbell’s case.
Exiting MLAs also get up to 15 months of severance at the $101,859 MLA annual salary and includes a top-up if the politician takes a job at less than six figures. They’re also eligible for up to $9,000 in “training” funds. “Not only do these MLAs receive overly generous pensions, they get a severance package and training money,” Bateman said. “Taxpayers are on the hook for millions just to transition these politicians back to the real
world.” He noted the B.C. Liberals ran against “gold-plated” pensions in 1996 and then NDP premier Glen Clark brought in a fairer, dollar-for-dollar system. But the Liberals in 2007 brought back ultra-generous pensions and let MLAs buy back missing years of service. The CTF didn’t include Premier Christy Clark in its calculation, but says if she doesn’t get a seat elsewhere her lifetime pension would be $1.03 million.
Kinder Morgan pipeline clears hurdle
&
to those still underway on Enbridge’s proposed Northern Gateway pipeline. “The decision reinforces the market support for our expansion plans and it provides us the necessary economic certainty to proceed,” Kinder Morgan Canada president Ian Anderson said in a statement. The NEB decision ruled Kinder Morgan’s rates are just and reasonable, rejecting complaints of oil firms that argued the pipeline company would reap excessive profits. A second decision is also expected soon from the NEB on an application by Chevron for priority access to oil from the pipeline to supply its Burnaby refinery.

Kinder Morgan Canada has cleared one hurdle on the way to building a proposed second pipeline to carry Alberta oil sands crude through B.C. to Burrard Inlet. The National Energy Board has approved the company’s commercial tolling application, the rate structure it intends to charge oil companies to use the expanded Trans Mountain pipeline. It’s not an approval to begin construction. A formal proposal to build the pipeline is expected to be filed by Kinder Morgan later this year, triggering public hearings similar

Paige is working on leading a healthier life and wants to continue this with the Kin’s Green Fighters challenge.
I have precisely fifteen full days until the challenge is officially over. I would love to win. But when I compare myself with some other challengers, I fear that won’t be the case. The thing is, I’m still working really hard for ME! I brought my skipping rope with me this weekend, and in total did almost 700 skips! We went on two fast, steep, and deliciously muddy bike rides. I helped gather and place a bunch of giant rocks for a garden. I ate as healthy as I could, but still indulged with birthday cake, French toast, beer and wine. Hey! Why not? I wasn’t about to turn down Gewurztraminer in a hot tub, surrounded by peace and beautiful mountains! Monday afternoon when the sun came out, I was quickly baring skin and trying to get D! Finally, I was able to hold and feed a beautiful 6 week old baby, and play with two hilarious little toddlers. Today its back to a regular routine of work, zumba, dinner, dishes, in that order! I might go paddling tomorrow night, but as much as I’m a true west coast woman, I am getting tired of the rain! I forecast a workout with weights indoors!

CASHBACK
Plenty of transit fare evaders who get caught and ticketed are still refusing to pay their fines, despite the introduction of a beefed-up enforcement system eight months ago. As of April 30, 21,444 transit riders have been given $173 fines for failing to pay the full fare and about 5,000 of them or 23 per cent have paid their ticket. TransLink spokesman Derek Zabel said nearly 8,000 tickets, or 37 per cent, have now been sent to collection agencies. Another 1,463 or seven per cent have been forwarded to ICBC so driver’s licence or insurance renewals can be denied until the fines to TransLink are paid. He said nine per cent of tickets are disputed and no action has been taken on close to a quarter of the tickets issued, because they’re still within the 90 days allowed for payment. Zabel noted the rate of tickets being paid is up somewhat, from 16 per cent in past years and 20 per cent as of the end of February, but added it may be still too soon to draw conclusions. The provincial government last year gave TransLink new powers to enforce payment of unpaid fare evasion tickets. For years TransLink had been toothless, with no real way to make cheaters pay tickets. Fare evasion fines now go up $40 if they’re not paid within six months and they go up $100 if unpaid after a year. Transit Police have said they are checking more passengers but catching fewer fare evaders, suggesting more people are paying fares to ride SkyTrain in the first place, rather than cheating.

‘Everything Vancouver has to offer’
Mixed-use housing comes to Dunbar Local developer Omicron is bringing the first mixed-use housing project since 2008 to the Dunbar neighbourhood with their 5555 Dunbar project, a collection of one-, two- and three-bedroom homes in a variety of floorplans. Located right next door to the Blaq Sheep Coffee House and Bistro and close to any other amenity you can possibly imagine, from restaurants to community centres to shopping to education and beyond, 5555 Dunbar is perfectly situated. “It has everything that Vancouver has to offer,” says Scott Brown, senior vice-president of residential and
commercial marketing services at Colliers International Marketing. “5555 Dunbar feels like single-family living and (the homes are) larger than you’d find downtown.” On June 1, the neighbourhood will host a block party to welcome 5555 Dunbar to the neighbourhood. Among the entertainment and activities will be an urban market, muralist, golfing station, live band and a barbecue, along with many others. The barbecue will be by donation, with all proceeds donated to the Vancouver Food Bank. Homes start at $349,000. For more information, visit www.5555dunbar. com or call 604-568-7551.
homeownership,” Paukkunen says. The Westbank name has been a huge part of the interest in 188 Keefer already. “The developments speak for themselves,” says Paukkunen. “They have incredible attention to detail and the quality is evident.” Past Westbank projects include Living Shangri-La Vancouver, Coal Harbour’s Shaw Tower and the Fairmont Pacific Rim. They are also
involved in the redevelopment of the iconic Woodward’s property in downtown Vancouver. Sales will begin soon, Paukkunen says, and the presentation centre at the corner of Main Street and Keefer Street is slated to open in the near future. Homes start at $239,900 for a one-bedroom and $399,900 for a two-bedroom. To register for more information, visit www.188keefer.com or call 604-620-2018.
‘Location is really an advantage’
Achievable living at Westbank’s 188 Keefer By Kerry Vital
Vancouver’s historic Chinatown is welcoming a newcomer to its midst with Westbank’s 188 Keefer, a stunning addition to a community already known for its friendly atmosphere. “This is an amenity-rich neighbourhood that’s poised for tremendous growth,” says Alexa Paukkunen, sales and marketing director for Magnum Projects. “Chinatown has such a storied heritage.” With restaurants, cultural activities and shopping right on your doorstep, living at 188 Keefer gives you a downtown Vancouver experience without being right in the hustle and bustle. “The location is really an advantage,” says Paukkunen. The one- and two-bedroom homes will feature spacious floorplans ranging from approximately 460 to over 1,000 square feet. Retail space will be located on the ground floor of the 17-storey building, with 156 homes in total. Two different levels of interior specifications are available, divided into tower and podium homes depending on which floor you purchase on. The podium homes up to the ninth floor will include polished granite countertops, premium plank vinyl flooring and stainless-steel appliances, among several other beautiful features, while the tower homes will feature engineered hardwood flooring, Miele and Blomberg stainless-steel appliances and Corian countertops. Tower homes are located on the upper floors. No matter where in the building

This is an amenity-rich neighbourhood that’s poised for tremendous growth,” says Alexa Paukkunen, sales and marketing director for Magnum Projects. you purchase, you’ll find amazing panoramic views of the downtown Vancouver skyline, B.C. Place and the North Shore Mountains. A concrete feature wall will be included on the tower that will be home to a public art installation by Vancouver artist Ron Terada. In the building, homeowners will find nearly 4,000 square feet of amenity space, including a huge outdoor terrace, indoor lounge and fitness facility. The outdoor space will include a children’s play area, urban garden plots, outdoor barbecue, fireplace and seating area, while the indoor lounge will feature a large living room seating area, flatscreen TV, kitchen space and a dining room perfect for entertaining. “This is a unique opportunity to be able to afford a home in a unique community,” Paukkunen says. “It’s an achievable price point and an achievable downpayment option.” Indeed, buyers are able to own at 188 Keefer with just five per cent down, something that is rarely seen in the Lower Mainland’s housing market. “We want to minimize the (financial) threshold to get people into

K is for Kalmia, flavour of the week H
aving lived through the 1970s, I can honestly say that it was great fun, but a pretty tacky decade as far as style was concerned – which is why we don’t see green shag carpet, Ford Pintos and threeinch high-heel boots for men anymore, although I have to admit Gardening Mike Lascelle that I didn’t mind being a few inches taller back in the day. Plants are much the same: they go in and out of style with the flavour of the week landscape designs, such as English cottage, Alba garden and formal modern. But, occasionally, a shrub can miss the boat altogether and never really enjoy the fickle favour of the gardening public, languishing instead on the fringes of botanical gardens or being used occasionally in adventurous home landscapes. I think Mountain Laurel or Kalmia latifolia is one such notable shrub, and the reason I believe that many people avoid it is because it is absolutely spectacular in bloom, and some gardeners have assumed that such beauty is either tender or difficult to grow. Nothing could be further from the truth. This member of the Ericaceae family likes the same growing conditions as rhododendrons and is hardy to Zone 5, meaning that it can thrive in the coldest parts of the Fraser Valley. It is native to eastern North America and is often

(From left) Kalmia latifolia ‘Olympic Fire’ and Kalmia latifolia ‘Minuet.’ recommended for partial shade exposures, although I have seen it produce spectacular flower displays in full sun parking strips, such as the one behind our local Red Robin restaurant, where I photographed the ‘Olympic Fire’ Kalmia shown above. The other growing necessity is acidic soil with even moisture. Given these basic requirements, Kalmias will produce abun-
dant late spring to summer bloom clusters worthy of any garden. Personally, I would even grow this evergreen shrub just for the flower buds, as these are cone-shaped and highly ribbed with many being bicolored, giving them a bonbon-like appearance. The buds open to pink, white or rose coloured flowers, some with eye-catching maroon spotting or banding, such as ‘Bullseye’ and ‘Car-
ousel’. Young plants can a little brittle (so keep the Golden Retrievers at bay) and take a few years to establish, but are usually flowering well in their third or fourth year. While the native species can reach heights of three metres, most Kalmia cultivars are about 1.5 to 1.75 m high after 10 years. The glossy dark green leaves are lance-shaped and often slightly twisted, reaching about 13 cm in length – although dwarf cultivars have smaller scale foliage. Quite a few dwarf or miniature varieties are available and a few common choices include ‘Little Linda’ (0.6-0.9m high/red buds with pink flowers), ‘Elf ’ (0.6-0.9m high/white flowers) and ‘Minuet’ (0.9m high/white flowers with a contrasting burgundy-red band). These can be easily trained into informal flowering hedges that have the additional benefit of being reliably evergreen. Larger specimens work well as solitary features and are happy in the company of other acid-loving plants, such as Rhododendron, Pieris and Camellia. ‘Peppermint’ is one of the better new introductions with highly textured pale pink buds that open to pure white flowers with a fireworks-like burst of dark burgundy accenting the center and it is well worth looking for. As for the rest, you can try visiting your local garden centre to see what they have in stock or preview Mountain Laurel varieties on my plant selection website (www. mikesgardentop5plants.wordpress.com).

Garibaldi club learning on the fly by Nei l Corbe tt staff reporter
F
or most teens, the fly-fishing club is something they learned about only in theory, while flipping through their dad’s high school yearbook. But Maple Ridge, surrounded by rivers and lakes and Tom Sawyer environs, is either a last bastion of the nostalgic fly-fishing club, or at the forefront of a resurgence in a classic high school extra-curricular activity. Maple Ridge, Pitt Meadows, Westview and Garibaldi secondary schools all have fly-fishing clubs. But the poster boys for high school fly fishing are at Garibaldi. The Fraser Valley Fly Fishing championships were held at the Fraser Valley Trout Hatchery in Abbotsford recently, and Garibaldi won it for the sixth straight time. Nick Malchuk caught 41 fish in about two hours as the top angler, and Travis Dougall was second in the longest cast competition at 52.8 feet. Malchuck has become an accomplished angler. “I really enjoy it, and like spending time fishing,” said Malchuk. He has learned a lot from his father Darcy out on Alouette Lake and other local bodies of water, but the club was his first experience tying flies. Malchuk might get shut out on a river, but never on a lake. “I tend to catch a lot of fish.” “It’s a good learning experience,” said Dougall of the team. “It’s entertaining, and if you’re not into sports, you can go into the fishing club.” Last year, two kids from the program went on to fish for the Canadian Junior Fly Fishing Team, and Jason Gemperle and Arthur Olesiak were part of a competition in Lucon, France. Livio Gubert runs the club. He fires it up at the end of January, and runs it until a

Travis Dougall ties a fly. He’s part of the successful Garibaldi group, seen as a template for fly-fishing clubs around the province. year-end trip on Mother’s Day weekend. The kids tie flies once a week. They learned the simpler flies to start with, like the wooly bugger – which is supposed to look like a leech to the piscine eye. For the first year, he just wants the students to get comfortable with the tools of the trade. They have to be able to finish a fly so that it doesn’t fall apart on the second cast. He also wants them to look at a fly and know what food source it is mimicking, and how it would be put together. Then, they head onto the school field, or into the gym on a rainy day, and practise their casting techniques. The key to the club’s success, however, is doing the real thing – getting the kids out fishing.
“It feels pretty cool to create a fly and then fool a fish into thinking it’s the real thing,” said Gubert. As they get more advanced, Gubert and his assistant Joe Kravjanski teach them how to read water, looking for areas where birds might be feeding on an insect hatch – and understanding that the fish will be there, too. They teach the kids to find dropoffs in lakes, which are also a good place to find fish. By the time they are accomplished anglers, they will be able to take their fly-tying gear out in the field, catch a fish, pump its stomach to see what they are feeding on, and then tie a fly to mimic their food source. The club has assembled a lot of gear, with the generous assistance of local business
Hatch Match’r Fly and Tackle. They have waders, float tubes, fins, rods and nets. Mike Gass, who is the outreach coordinator for the Freshwater Fisheries Society of B.C., said his group is working toward a provincial fly-fishing championship. The society, which stocks lakes across the province, sees fishing as a great activity, and one that students can continue throughout their lifetime. It promotes environmental stewardship, physical activity and is social. It’s also a great family sport. The average angler in B.C. is a man in his 40s, and Gass would like to see that demographic broaden, and getting high school programs running is a way to do that. He asserts that the Garibaldi program, with its field
trips and support by a local fly and tackle shop, is the model club. “We’re hoping to use it as a template to spread around the province,” he said. “It’s really important that we teach the next generation to get out there.” Where would Gass take a young angler ensure they catch some fish? Locally, Whonnock and Rolley Lakes are both stocked with rainbow trout, and have catchable fish over 12 inches. They are among more than 200 lakes stocked from the Fraser Valley Trout Hatchery in Abbotsford, paid for through the sales of fish licences. Alouette Lake also has an excellent kokanee fishery, but anglers will need a boat to get out and troll for them.

There were eight teams from four different leagues. For the second straight year, the Lower Mainland Baseball Association’s Richmond Athletics emerged with a hard-fought win over the Howe Sound Cannons of the North Shore Men’s League. “The steady improvement in both tournament organization and in the calibre of teams entering the event is ensuring a very bright future for this tournament and for Maple Ridge baseball” said Taylor.

received a question from a reader about the potential problems middle-aged people may face if they try to run. The reader asks if one should run if you have arthritis, cartilage damage or other ailments. Is it better to lose weight first with non-impact exercises and then start running after? Is jogging enough to build bone density? Knee joint problems are fairly common because the knee and lower limb absorb a great deal of body weight when we walk, climb stairs or run. In fact, when you run each leg can sustain up to eight times one’s body weight. That means 1,600 pounds of force for a 200-pound person. If you are concerned about the status of your knees, it’s best to get it assessed and have the proper rehabilitation program set up. However, as far as the question of arthritis goes there are a few important points to note. Osteoarthritis and joint degeneration is a natural process of aging. People are often shocked to find out that a joint or their spinal x-ray shows degenerative joints. But arthritis or degeneration does not necessarily mean you will have pain or be debilitated. In fact, as far as the spine goes, the majority of people with pain-free backs have at least some degeneration in their spinal joints and some of them can have a surprising amount, and yet

OBITUARIES PUDDLE D (Duck) Children’s Ctr
Passed away in his 87th year after a brief period of illness. We remember him with affection for his vigour, ingenuity, and indefatigable determination to complete any project started. In his years as the owner of Westwood TV, and with other Chamber of Commerce members, he participated in the early efforts to establish the Poco Trail along the Coquitlam River. After a life of hard work he brought the same energy to his retirement and was able to windsurf, swim, and dance well into his senior years. His children, Robert (Irene), Glen (Sue), Gordon (Eileen) & Brigitte, and grandchildren, Alex, Kristen, Adam, & Jessica were beside him and admired his ability to remain very much himself in his final days. He leaves behind a brother, Karl, and extended family in Germany. Hans was predeceased by our loving mother / grandmother, Ann. A gathering of family and friends will be held at a future date. Donations can be made to BC Heart & Stroke or to Eagle Ridge Hospital Foundation. Condolences may be send to www.mapleridgefuneral.ca
