Man dead in hit and run MONIQUE TAMMINGA Times Reporter
A pedestrian was struck and killed in a hit-and-run crash in the 19500 block of Langley Bypass early Wednesday morning. The victim of the fatal hit and run was a 37-yearold man, said Surrey RCMP Sgt. Drew Grainger. Police haven’t identified where he is from yet and still have to contact next of kin, he said. It was around 3 a.m., when a semi truck without a trailer travelling in the eastbound curb lane struck and killed the man in the 19500 block, near the Hampton Inn. The driver of the semi carried on. Grainger said it is too early in the investigation to know if the driver is aware he or she hit and killed someone. On Wednesday afternoon, police had located the semi truck. Witnesses report that the semi is an older model blue cab with silver on the back. Police said that part of the Bypass is a busy, commercial hub so it isn’t that uncommon for pedestrians, even at that time of the morning, to be there. “We are canvassing witnesses and will be reviewing the surveillance videos from neighbouring businesses,” said Grainger. The Langley Bypass was closed until around 8:15 a.m. while police investigated. B.C. Coroner Services is also investigating.

Court fight over Coulter Berry building Newly formed society seeks court order to prevent construction of Fort Langley building DAN FERGUSON Times Reporter
A court fight over construction of the Coulter Berry building in Fort Langley has pitted a newly-formed society against the Township of Langley. The Society of Fort Langley Residents for Sustainable Development is asking the B.C. Supreme Court to prevent construction of the three-storey mix of residential, office and retail
at the intersection of Glover Road and Mavis Avenue. The Township has responded by asking the court to throw the society lawsuit out and has applied to have its application to dismiss the matter heard by a judge in Chilliwack on Sept. 9. In court documents filed with the Chilliwack B.C. Supreme Court registry on July 8, the lawyer for the society maintains the Coulter Berry building violates the Township heritage
protection regulations because it is too big. If construction is allowed to proceed, the society petition says the Coulter Berry building would “unalterably and irreparably undermine the heritage policies for land located in the Heritage Conservation Area, to the detriment of the cultural and historical heritage of Fort Langley, contrary to law.” In a written response, filed Aug. 2, the Township lawyer says the Langley Township council has a “broad discretion” to approve variances from heritage guidelines. The Township petition goes
GIA CERTIFIED
on to argue the society lawsuit should be dismissed because the society “does not have a direct, personal interest” in the issue as defined by law and it waited too long, seven-and-a-half months after the project was approved, to apply for an injunction. The project was approved by Township council in November of last year after two evenings of sometimes-heated debate. It was a 7-1 vote with only Councillor David Davis opposed. Because the Coulter Berry property is located within the

Joint effort works in Surrey, but City crime stays high
MONIQUE TAMMINGA Times Reporter
A two-month long shared policing project dubbed LASTT (Langley and Surrey Target Team) has reduced crime in one area of western Langley and eastern Surrey by 30 per cent, said RCMP from the two detachments. As part of Langley RCMP’s crime reduction plan, efforts are constantly made to study crime trends and develop strategies to reduce it, said police spokesperson Cpl. Holly Marks. With that in mind, it became quickly apparent that an area stretching geographically from 176 Street to 204 Street, from Cloverdale and Langley City all the way north to Willoughby, Port Kells and
Clayton Heights, was experiencing high amounts of crime. In fact, stats were saying 72 crimes per week were happening just in this area alone. And those were the crimes being reported. At the beginning of May, a team of 19 officers were pulled together — two uniformed teams and one surveillance, working both day and night shifts. These included members of Surrey and Langley RCMP. The tactics used included covert and overt monitoring, identifying problem houses where offenders lived, highly visible patrols, aggressive street and curfew checks and face to face visits with business owners inside the target area, said police.
Over the course of the last two months, property crime rates within the target area dropped from an average of 72 per week to an average of 50 per week, representing a 30 per cent reduction. The reductions were most obvious in the area north of 72 Avenue, while the Langley City core south of the Langley Bypass remained static or increased slightly, said police. Langley’s efforts will continue through the summer months, particularly in the Langley City core area where crime seems to be persisting at the same level, said Marks. Statistics Canada’s recent crime rate report shows that Langley City’s crime rate is almost twice the B.C. average.
Girl falls two storeys
MONIQUE TAMMINGA Times Reporter
A three-year-old girl was airlifted to B.C. Children’s Hospital and was listed in serious condition after she fell from a second floor window of her Walnut Grove home on Tuesday afternoon. Around 3:30 p.m., the toddler allegedly fell from the window, landing on her head on the concrete below. Fire crews, who were the first to arrive at the home in the 9400 block of 213 Street, reported that she was conscious and breathing. On Wednesday, there was no update from the hospital on how she was doing, said Langley RCMP.

At press time,
Morrison had not responded to a Times request for comment. Meanwhile, scaffolding has gone up around the Coulter Berry site, but construction hasn’t started. Woodward said the delay isn’t due to the court action and he expects work will begin later this month once “a few more
technical details” have been worked out. “It [the Coulter Berry design] is a complicated zero-lot line development because of the extensive underground parkade,” Woodward said. “The petition has not affected progress whatsoever. We expect to get underway very soon.”

A 32-year-old Langley man charged in connection with a violent home invasion on June 27 was released on $75,000 bail. Derek Allenby was in Surrey Provincial Court on July 18 for a bail hearing. He is charged with forcible confinement, break and enter, assault and several breach charges in connection to the home invasion. He makes his next court appearance Nov. 8. Police believe the suspects were looking for the grow
operation or cash revenue from it. The legal grow op had been harvested and removed a week prior to the attack, said police at the time. Langley RCMP along with the Emergency Response Team and Air One descended on the 56-year-old woman’s home in the 24900 block of 72 Avenue after she called 911, saying she had been hit, tied up and her home ransacked. A couple of suspects managed to flee the scene, but Allenby was arrested near the scene. Allenby is a career criminal who has committed dozens of crimes over the past decade.
As recently as May 6, he was arrested in Langley, charged with break and enter, theft over $5,000 and possession of property obtained through crime. He was released that day on $200 bail. He was rearrested on May 30 for breaching his bail, but released again. In 2007, he was arrested in a high profile police chase caught on video. His arrest led to the seizure of numerous stolen vehicles and big construction equipment and containers on a Cloverdale property. At the time of his arrest in 2007, he had just been released from prison.
with the B.C. Supreme Court registry in Vancouver on July 26, the lawyer for Kuzyk says her client was a victim of “abusive and violent” behavior. The Kuzyk lawsuit says when she complained about her treatment and about similar abuse directed against another top university official, the university not only refused to investigate, but she was warned by one person against making a formal complaint. Kuzyk worked as executive assistant for at least three presidents of the university during her employment. Her lawsuit makes specific allegations against a number of people she says either commit-
ted the abuse or failed to stop it, including former interim university president John McKendry, university vice president of finance and administration Harry Gray and university associate vice-president, academic, Jane Fee. None of the allegations has been proven in court. Kuzyk is seeking unspecified financial compensation. Joanne Saunders, the university director of communications and marketing, issued a statement saying the institution “does not tolerate inappropriate action in the workplace. “These are very serious allegations and we intend to respond to them fully.”

Mayor’s pay raise challenged BRENDA ANDERSON Times Reporter
Should the acting mayor for the City of Langley receive the same salary boosts that the former mayor would have been entitled to, or should payment for the position be capped at its current level? The question became the centre of a heated debate on Wednesday evening ( July 31), when council met to elect an acting mayor to replace Mayor Peter Fassbender, who took a leave of absence last month to serve as MLA for SurreyFleetwood. It wasn’t the dollar figure that caused dissent among the City’s six remaining council members, however, but Councillor Dave Hall’s determination to speak about the municipality’s remuneration policies during the special meeting . Councillor Ted Schaffer was elected to the position, which he will carry out for the next 16 months. Prior to the vote, however, Hall introduced a motion to hold the acting mayor’s pay at the 2013 rate, for the entire 16 months remaining on the term. Hall argued that while the acting mayor should receive 100 per cent of the compensation due the mayor for 2013, they should not be eligible for a raise the following year, even if one is called for under the City’s council remuneration policy. “Some people may look at this appointment as not being worthy of 100 per cent of the mayor’s remuneration,” said Hall. He said it could be argued that at the beginning
of each three-year term, the workload is heavier, as strategic plans are being developed. Hall said that while he agreed that the acting mayor should receive the full amount of the salary due the mayor for the remainder of 2013, he couldn’t support a raise the following year when there is no way to determine how much it would be. “The public deserves to know what the acting mayor will make,” he said. Hall’s motion was defeated in a 5-1 vote. A subsequent motion put forward by Councillor Teri James called for the new acting mayor to receive the same 2013 salary as the former mayor would have received — again, prorated to July 31 — as well as be eligible for any pay bump that might occur in 2014. “I struggle with the idea of not paying our acting mayor what our existing mayor would make,” said James. “I believe the intention is for that person to step up and perform as the previous mayor would have . . . . If there had been a byelection, that individual would have received the same remuneration, no question.” According to figures provided by Hall at the meeting, the mayor’s base salary for 2013 is $78,345. In addition, he noted the mayor receives $500 for each mayor’s council meeting, in addition to receiving compensation for attending other meetings. One-third of the mayor’s pay is tax exempt. As is the case with many com-
munities in the Lower Mainland, the City of Langley’s remuneration policy is tied to the pay rates of councils in other Lower Mainland municipalities. “The remuneration policy is flawed,” said Hall. He acknowledged that while it was well intentioned when it was adopted in 2007, when the mayor was making in the neighbourhood of $44,000, the pay rate had risen at an unacceptable rate as a result. By 2013, the salary for the position had climbed by 77 per cent, he noted. “This is a council that has failed to address the compounding taxation in the City and, as a component of that, the rapidly escalating remuneration for the mayor,” said Hall. As Hall spoke, both during discussion of his own motion, as well as that of James, he was challenged by both James and deputy mayor Gayle Martin, who ruled his remarks out of order. “We are not here to discuss existing policy,” said James. “We’re not talking about how policy comes about,” said Martin. “We all know you don’t like the policy.” Hall argued that Martin had no right to call him out of order for discussing remuneration policy while the acting mayor’s pay was being set. He challenged the ruling, but his effort received no seconder and died. However, he continued to speak until Martin, speaking over of him, called the question on James’ motion. It passed in a 5-1 vote, with only Hall opposed.

Cougar caution
Leave dogs at home in hot weather
A
report of a cougar sighting on the Langley-Surrey boundary last week has people in that area concerned, as they should be. Cougars are quite capable of attacking animals and small children, and the area the cougar was seen in is within a block of a dense urban area, where many families reside. Cougar sightings in Langley are rare, but not uncommon. Cougars have been spotted on numerous occasions in areas of South Langley for generations, and rural properties near the U.S.-Canada border seem to be a favourite haunt. However, there have been very few sightings in the area where the latest report originates. That area is some distance from the Fraser River and has not been the reported haunt of large predators like cougars or bears for many years. However, last summer a bear was spotted and eventually killed in a Willoughby subdivision, just a short distance from where this cougar was seen. Members of larger wildlife species, including bears and cougars, seem to have been on the move more in recent years. This is likely due to increased human encroachment on wild areas, particularly north of the Fraser River. Forests and mountains in Coquitlam, Port Coquitlam, Maple Ridge and Port Moody have been urbanized, making way for homes, schools, apartments and shopping centres. The wild animals which have inhabited those areas have to go somewhere else. In some cases, they stay nearby, but some animals wander farther afield, looking for food and shelter. It is not at all surprising, but when they come face to face with members of the human species, there can be conflicts. In the case of bears, it is often over food. Bears love rotting fruit, garbage and almost anything else. Cougars tend to be more selective, but in some ways that is even more problematic. They are voracious predators and tend to seek out smaller and weaker prey. That means small animals, deer and, in some cases, smaller people. Children can be vulnerable to cougar attacks, and on Vancouver Island, where cougars abound, there are frequent reports of close encounters with the big cats. People who live in the area near the latest sighting need to be very cautious, and this applies particularly to children. Adults need to take extra care to supervise them at all times. If anyone does spot a cougar, they should let authorites know. The phone number is 1-800-663-9453.

ust about any information a person may hear can seem truer if they hear it often enough. Repetition works wonders. Repetition works wonders. The topic here is dogs and hot weather and here goes the the plea, once again (and it naturally goes double for children, where applicable). The short-form of this message would be to simply suggest dogs be left at home far more often than they are. We’re not formally linked with the SPCA, by the way, just interested in much of what it promotes. The longer form stresses the fact of how fast a vehicle heats up once the air conditioning goes off, how hot pavement can be for the feet of a pooch on a 30C+ day and how there’s no way a panting tongue alone can properly cool an animal sporting a thick fur coat. Sure this is all repeated every summer but, just like drinking-anddriving warnings, it’s well worth repeating if the lives of only one or two pets are spared or made more comfortable. One last thing: If you have your sheepdog or pug in the car with you during this hot weather and you really are only going to leave them for a minute or two, please try to be tolerant if someone takes you to task in a parking lot. It’s because they care. Hopefully they won’t go overboard. Then again, why not avoid any possible conflict and just leave the dog at home near the water dish? —Kamloops This Week (Black Press)

Senate does offer some advantages Editor: Re: “Senate has no place in 21st century Canada,” (Gregory Thomas comment, The Times, Aug 1.) Thomas is misleading and/or misinformed when he calls for abolishing the Seenate simply because “Canada is a democracy.” There are different types of democracies and our founders intentionally set up Canada as a bicameral parliamentary democracy, not a unicameral one. Our founders were not scared of American “mob rule” as Thomas asserts, nor does he provide evidence that they were all in favour of slavery. (Thomas, by the way, cites newspapers, not the founders, in his assertion that Canada was mad for slavery and the Confederate army.) The founders argued that a bicameral
democracy with an unelected second chamber would provide the proper separation and check of powers to protect all the people, not just a majority of them. John A. Macdonald, during the founding debates, had this to say about what the Senate should look like: “It must be an independent house, having a free action of its own, for it is only valuable as being a regulating body, calmly considering the legislation initiated by the popular branch and preventing any hasty or ill-considered legislation which may come from that body, but it will never set itself in opposition against the deliberate and understood wishes of the people.” He also spoke against making it elected by the people, because then it would just be a duplicate popular
branch and beholden to popular opinion or political parties, defeating the purpose of being a check on the lower house. Most agreed with this idea, including Thomas Ryan, who said in the Canadian Legislative Council on Feb. 20, 1865: “[a] second chamber, constituted nearly in the same way as the lower chamber, would be wholly ineffectual to stop the current of legislation coming from that chamber.” You only have to look back a few years to see a prime example of the benefit of an unelected Senate that can act as a regulating body. In 2010, the House of Commons passed the Climate Change Accountability Act, which would have established crushing regulations to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to ridiculous targets.
Had the Senate not been in place to defeat the bill, that act would have hamstrung an already stagnant Canadian economy. (Incidentally, taxing emissions is also policy that the Canadian Taxpayers Federation has spoken out against.) Concern about senators’ spending habits, how they become senators, whether they need to own property or what era in which the Senate was established does not necessitate abolishing the Senate. Let’s address those issues without being short-sighted. Throwing away the principles of the democracy entrusted to us by our founding fathers would be a disastrous legacy to pass on to our children. Bryan Grim, Langley
Missing dog has had a lot of adventures with owner Editor: I am contacting you to ask if you would let the public know that Tess, my 16-year-old deaf border collie who went missing a little over a week ago. She went missing from Krause Berry Farm, where we live. I sing at the winery and drive the Percheron team there. She was spotted in Wagonwheel Crescent in the early part of last week. I know it’s just another dog story, but this is such a dear old girl who has had so many adventures. She and I survived going over a cliff in my car in 2002. She has flown up north with me to mining exploration camps in helicopters and tiny float planes. She’s chased bears out of camp. She has been in movies with me, visited preschools, psych wards and old folks’ homes and been on stage with me at the children’s festival in Vancouver. She has travelled to
school shows with me. I am also known as Clare de Lune. I’ve been a singer for children for years. I sang in many Langley schools and did various community performances in the 1990s. Tess is a tricolour border collie, and where other border collies would have white in their faces, she has grey mottled colouring which is called blue ticking, in a dog that isn’t a blue merle. She is in the small side and her fur is wavy. I have haunted the area where she was seen but she’s gone a bit wild I guess, and the lady who saw her couldn’t get near. She may have been picked up by someone who could have thought she was abandoned. I need your help to get the word out. Anyone with information can contact me at 604-338-6903. Clare Brett, Langley
Two men thanked for their assistance with wallet Editor: I would like to thank the man on the motorcycle, who was filling up at the gas station on 88 Avenue near 212 Street on Friday, July 26, and also the man in the big silver truck who raced after me as I drove away from the station, and spoke to me at the next stop light. Both of these gentlemen saved my bacon. I had placed my wallet on top of my car while gassing up and it popped off
when I turned back into traffic. When I sped back to the gas station, the decent fellow filling up his bike, who had witnessed the incident, had already picked up my wallet and scattered cards from the busy street and was walking back to finish gassing up. Both men saved me a lot of grief. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Susan Gleeson, Langley
A $53 million white elephant Editor: Re: Proposed Aldergrove rec centre. I have read The Times without comment for three years, but enough is enough. How can anyone justify a “planned” cost of $53 million for a pool/ arena project, for a community of less than 13,000 people. On a per capita basis, the cost runs to about $4,300 dollars per person — and that’s only if every inhabitant of Aldergrove were able to pay taxes. There is absolutely no business case for this project. Aldergrove is 37 miles east of VancouThe
ver. There are many other pools and arenas in between. I do not think that any right-thinking person would drive all the way to Aldergrove to use their facilities, given the many other alternatives in other communities closer to their homes. At $53 million, where is the money coming from? People, be careful for what you wish for, because this could be just the beginning of an expensive, underutilized, white elephant that will be enjoyed by the few. James Byard, Langley

Human beings at fault for cougar, bear encounters Editor: I’m sick and tired of people whining about cougar and bear sightings. These people moved into an area that was once their home. It was all forest and trees, where they could live and breed without us destroying their habitat. These poor animals are just trying to survive and feed their babies like any mother, human or animal, would do. It’s not the cougar’s fault that people
decided to buy a house in an area it used to call home, nor is it the bear and her cubs’ fault that people now live on Westwood Plateau and have them murdered because they destroyed their home. It’s not right that we don’t respect the native animals of the land, as we do the native humans. Shame on us. Jennifer Houseman, Langley
The supremacy of Quebec Editor: I was delighted and relieved to read the excellent letter (The Times, Aug. 6) by Chris Humphrey, in which he recalled the damage inflicted upon the majority of Canadians by the late Pierre Trudeau. He forced a minority language to have equal value as that spoken by the great majority. Not that there is anything wrong with speaking two languages, but that legislation has ensured that Quebecers have dominance in obtaining public service jobs and being admitted to the senior ranks of the military, in addition
to getting the lion’s share of tax dollars in their status as a “have-not” province. The young Trudeau, for all his curly hair and obvious charm, has stated that he is a Quebecer first. This statement has been glossed over by the Liberal hierarchy and now seems to be forgotten. However, if he is in power, I have no doubt that Justin Trudeau will ensure that Quebec will be the province that gains the most of everything from the Canadian federation. Mike Harvey, Langley

Revenue sharing works, but process stays fragile
T
he ceremonies have become common at the B.C. legislature. Government officials and aboriginal leaders gather to celebrate resource sharing agreements that allow economic development in areas that need employment but are hampered by a century of uncertainty and dispute over treaties, or lack thereof. This approach emerged a decade ago with forest agreements. The BC Liberal government bought back timber cutting licences from big forest firms and made them available for community forests and aboriginal communities who claimed the areas as their traditional territories. Recently the approach was extended to mining revenues and water licence fees paid by private power developers. These are substantial steps forward for the only province in Canada in treaty limbo. A 2010 sharing deal worth more than $30 million in royalties for the Mount Milligan copper-gold mine north of Prince George helped the McLeod Lake Indian Band recover from the pine beetle and forestry slump that devastated its business base. After many years of struggle, Mount Milligan expects to go into production this year. Another agreement with Kamloops-area communities shared revenues from an expanded Afton mine.

Association, when talks with the B.C. Teachers’ Federation resume in September. Fassbender’s announcement surprised school trustees around the province. He said he spoke to or left messages for trustees on the BCPSEA executive before making the announcement in Vancouver Wednesday, July 31. The move is to meet a demand of the B.C. Teachers’ Federation to bargain directly with the B.C. government, Fassbender said. The government also intends to eliminate essential services rules that keep schools open with minimum staff during strikes.
Direct bargaining with teachers
Black Press
The B.C. government is pressing ahead with its goal of a 10-year agreement with B.C. teachers, appointing a “public administrator” to replace school trustees on the board of their provincial bargaining agency. Education Minister Peter Fassbender said the change is temporary, and the B.C. Public School Employers’ Association will continue to play an important role in talks with teachers and support staff. BCPSEA will be under the direction of Michael Marchbank, CEO of the Hospital Employers’
Fassbender denied the suggestion he is setting up a “showdown” with teachers that would shut down schools and turn the public against unions. The structural change is needed to achieve the stability for students and parents promised by Premier Christy Clark, he said. “It’s not about pitting them against us,” Fassbender said. “It’s about finding a new road map where we can achieve that goal.” Jim Iker, who is the new BCTF president, said Thursday his union isn’t opposed to a long-term settlement, as long as more resources are there to improve classroom conditions.

Sidewalk repairs prove expensive DAN FERGUSON Times Reporter
It will cost the Township of Langley $250,000 to fix four sidewalks that have gone without proper maintenance because of budget-cutting, a report to council estimates. The July 22 memo from engineering operations manager Terry Veer says tree roots are creating uneven and potentially hazardous sidewalks in the 21900 block of 48 Avenue, 208 Street from 90 to 93 Avenue, 272 Street from 28 to 29 Avenue and Fraser Highway from 264 to 265 Street. That represents about 1.1 kilometres of sidewalk that needs work to eliminate “trip hazards and associated liabilities” the report states. Veer says temporary repairs have been carried out using $50,000 from the existing road maintenance budget ,because council eliminated a $56,000-a-year sidewalk repair and maintenance fund in 2011. That has meant the “deferral of other anticipated [road] projects,” the report says.
Langley Township photo
A sidewalk in the 21900 block of 48 Avenue in Murrayville required $13,000 in repairs because of upheavals caused by tree roots. A report for Langley Township council estimates that $250,000 is needed for sidewalk repairs. The repair to just one of the sidewalks on 48 Avenue cost $13,000, council was told. More than just the four sidewalks are deteriorating, the report warned, saying the lack of funding “… has led to a decrease to the overall condition of our sidewalks and walkways and an ever increasing amount of defects are

showing up on our sidewalks and walkways …” In addition to the $250,000 to fix the four sidewalks, the Veer report also calls on council to restore the annual sidewalk maintenance budget and increase it to $75,000. Council has voted to have the funding considered during the 2014 budget process.

Call for Township campaign against knotweed rejected Not enough resources to fight invasive plant, council told DAN FERGUSON Times Reporter
The Township of Langley has a plan to fight invasive plants, but it doesn’t cover private property. A July 22 report to council by environmental co-ordinator Justin St. Andrassy said the Township “has neither the resources nor jurisdiction necessary to effectively to effectively remove invasive species from private lands.� The report was a response to resident Joe Cindrich, who sounded a warning about the spread of Japanese knotweed in Langley Township at a June 10 council meeting. Cindrich said he has been fighting a frustrating battle on his Langley acreage with the hard-to-kill plant that
can punch holes in concrete and pavement. The St. Andrassy report noted the Township adopted a 10-year Invasive Species Control Strategy in 2007 that aims to reduce infestations of knotweed and five other invasive plants, Giant hogweed, Himalayan balsam, Ivy, Purple loosestrife and Tansy ragwort. However, the program is limited to Township parks and land managed by the engineering department, such as road allowances and drainage right-of-ways. There is a policy that forbids using Township crews on private land, St. Andrassy said, and even if it was allowed in order to fight the invading plants it would be “unfeasible, sporadic and ineffective.� “Any contemplated invasive species control program on private property would have a significant impact on Township resources and would be difficult to achieve an effective level of management due to the hurdles associated with co-ordination, completion of works

Joe Cindrich brought some samples of Knotweed to a Langley Township council meeting to argue for a program to eradicate the invasive species.

Council endorsed the report and the recommended participation in a regional campaign. Councillor Kim Richter was the only member who voted no, arguing something more should be done to aid property owners battling the plants. “Basically it [the report] is saying we can’t help you,� Richter said. Councillor Charlie Fox said there may be some steps the Township can take to assist private landowners, such as making it easier for residents to obtain landfill permits to bury the invading plants to eradicate them.
on hundreds of properties (or more) across the municipality and private property access permissions,� St. Andrassy said. He added provincial law requires “all land occupiers to control designated noxious plants within said properties.� St. Andrassy recommended education and outreach programs instead, calling them “the most effective and most appropriate tool.� The report also called for working with other municipalities and the Metro Vancouver authority to develop a regional strategy to contain the problem.

Lions offer potentially life saving donation Cash donated to purchase three portable defibrillators
SHAUGHNESSY CONCOURS D ELEGANCE
VANDUSEN BOTANICAL GARDEN
VANCOUVER BC
BRENDA ANDERSON Times Reporter
The City of Langley’s efforts to make its public buildings safer places to be got a shot in the arm on July 22, when they received a nearly $4,500 donation to put toward potentially lifesaving AED devices. Langley Lions president Paul Keeris presented a $4,473 cheque for the purchase of three automated external defibrillators. The donation will also cover the cost of cases, instruction in their use and signage, noted Keeris, adding it is up to the City to choose appropriate locations for the devices. “It’s a wonderful donation you’ve made,” deputy mayor Gayle Martin told the Lions Club members who attended the meeting for the presentation. “It could save a life and we appreciate it.” Discussion around installing the portable defibrillators in the City’s public buildings began months ago as council discussed where they would go, what kind of training would be needed and how their installation could affect the City’s liability. The municipality has earmarked five locations for the AEDs: Al Anderson Pool, Douglas Recreation Centre, City Hall, the municipal operations centre and Timms Community Centre. The City has also received a request from the Langley Senior Resources Centre to have one installed in the facility, said Councillor Dave

Hall. Hall gave a notice of motion on July 22, indicating he would ask staff to report on the status of the five sites where the AEDs would be installed and to investigate the funding for addition of an AED at seniors centre. There is also potential funding for another AED, indicated City CAO Francis Cheung. Staff have had preliminary discussions with the Heart and Stroke Foundation, he said. No final decision has been made, he said. But now that the City knows the Lions are providing funding for three defibrillators, that discussion can move forward.

Buyers from nearly every city in the region have been looking to purchase one of the homes there. The village has shopping, dining, community events and amenities right outside your front door, including Winners, Town Shoes, Everything Wine and Thrifty Foods. You’ll also be
able to fit in a workout at the Steve Nash Sports Club. “People fall in love with the village,” Woolley says. “It’s what sets Morgan Crossing apart.” Homes at Morgan Crossing start at $275,900 including GST and transition taxes for a two-bedroom suite.

really positive.” The project will encompass three buildings and over 500 homes. Over 30 homes were sold last month. The one-, two- and three-bedroom homes are spacious and inviting, with floorplans ranging from 465 to over 2,000 square feet. “These floorplans make sense to a wide range of people,” says Sprowson, adding that buyers so far have included downsizers and young couples looking to move away from renting or their starter home. “These homes are really efficient,” Sprowson says. “There’s no wasted space.” Some of the features you’ll find in your new home include stainless-steel appliances, solid engineered quartz countertops and a full-height marble mosaic backsplash in the kitchen. The modern kitchen cabinetry includes high-gloss solid white lacquer upper

cabinets and horizontal-grain real wood veneer lower cabinets, all built in Canada. The soaker tub in the bathroom is made for spa-like relaxation, complemented by the natural stone porcelain tile flooring, solid marble countertops and European frameless glass shower enclosure. You’ll find laminate flooring throughout the main living areas, with low-profile soft touch broadloom carpeting in the bedrooms. When you’re in the mood for some time outdoors, you’ll love the expansive outdoor patio or balcony in your new home. The amenities are some of the most amazing things about River Park Place. Among them you’ll find a yoga mezzanine, fully equipped fitness centre, dog-wash station, media room and training court with space to play basketball or badminton. “These are little things that make sense,”
Sprowson says. “We picked up the concept of a whole home, taken all of those things you’re looking for and put them into some form of amenity at River Park Place. You don’t expect to get that in a condo.” For the next several week, River Park Place will be holding weekend events that celebrate all those amenities. The next one, a three-onthree basketball scrimmage, will take place on Aug. 10 at the River Park Place sales centre. “Intracorp is fielding a team,” Sprowson laughs. “The old guys are going to get schooled!” There will be a grilling exhibition on Aug. 17 and daylight yoga on Aug. 24. The Oval Village neighbourhood has been rapidly growing since the end of the 2010 Winter Olympic Games, and River Park Place is perfectly situated to take advantage of everything the neighbourhood has to offer. “Our buyers are really starting to appreciate the evolution of the area,” Sprowson says. “This is the number-one neighbourhood in Richmond.” Buyers will have access to transit via the Canada Line just minutes away, as well as the Vancouver International Airport, the Richmond dyke trails and all of the shopping, dining and leisure activities in the area. T&T Supermarket will open its doors nearby, as well as medical, dental and banking services. Homes at River Park Place start at $229,900.

[defined by]: the desire to live in a place animated by people rather than things HOWEVER YOU DEFINE COMMUNITY, WE CALL IT AN EASY WAY TO MEET AND CONNECT WITH YOUR NEIGHBOURS. It’s just one of the many reasons residents love calling Morgan Crossing home. It could be at the chalk art festival on Main Street (see below!), or one of the many other events, like movie nights in the summer or resident parties. How about chatting with fellow dog owners at the Morgan Crossing Dog Park, or meeting during a class or workout at Steve Nash Sports Club. Or just hanging out at the coffee shops and restaurants, at a wine tasting at Everything Wine, or on a bench on Main Street. You’ll see and meet lots of the people who live and work at Morgan Crossing… and maybe even ask out your cute neighbour, Amy. Because loving where you live should be about more than just loving your stunning condo (though we have lots of those too!).

Join the “cash mob” Aug. 13 North Langley bloggers continue on their quest to connect their community MONIQUE TAMMINGA Times Reporter
We’ve all seen or heard of a flash mob, but now the founders of “My North Langley” are going to do their first “Cash Mob” on Tuesday, Aug. 13. The idea is to “mob” a chosen small business with cash to help them out and to foster goodwill with fellow business owners. My North Langley founders Michael Thorne and Tyler McClendon have been promoting the idea over all levels of social media, in hopes a big group from north Langley will gather. They are asking everybody to meet at 5:30 p.m. at North Langley Paint and Decorating where they will announce the business they are going to “mob.”
Donations of cash can be minimal. It is the thought that is important. “We plan on doing a “Mob” each quarter and will continue to ask for people to nominate recipients,” said Thorne. “We have had so much success at Christmas with our “Fans” sponsoring numerous families that we were looking for more opportunities for events like this.” Thorne says it is a great way for neighbours to meet each other, have some fun and support local businesses. They asked followers of My North Langley to nominate a small business that has been involved with giving back to the community or who has gone that extra mile or who may be struggling at this time for whatever

Making sense of insurance
Corolla S with moonroof shown
Let’s be honest, insurance can be confusing. There are hundreds of providers, types and levels of insurance — often with specific requirements that can make or break the policy. For the small business owner, knowing which insurance is a must-have and which they can do without can seem like a shot in the dark. “For many small business owners, understanding business insurance can feel like an impossible task,” said Myrna Palleschi, commercial insurance account manager at Envision Insurance. “It can seem overwhelming deciding what you need and what you don’t, causing some to skip the process altogether. Here are the must-haves that I always suggest to my business members, and a few key tips that may reduce insurance costs as well.”

Must have: Business interruption insurance or loss of income insurance “Every business, regardless of size, needs business interruption insurance or loss of income insurance,” said Palleschi. “Small businesses, especially, have a harder time recovering after a loss, and they’re more likely to close after a major loss has occurred. Should an unexpected loss or event force you to close your doors, business interruption insurance or loss of income insurance can replace lost revenue, profit, and may pay expenses to allow you to resume business more quickly.” Consider insurance for payroll “Similar to business interruption insurance, payroll insurance offers funds to pay your employees, as well as yourself, while your business recovers from an unexpected event,” suggested Palleschi. “Payroll insurance also helps ensure that your employees don’t look for work elsewhere, and can save you the expense of hiring and training new staff.” You are not immune from lawsuits “All businesses have some level of risk for a lawsuit,” cautioned Palleschi. “These can result from many things, such as negligence causing bodily injury or property damage due to everyday operations. That’s why it’s important to have commercial general liability coverage in place. Should a lawsuit occur, your insurers have the legal expertise to help launch a defense and assist in covering the costs as well.” Reduce the cost through loss prevention “Loss prevention provides the best line of defense and often comes with the added bonus of decreased insurance premiums,” sharedPalleschi. · Install approved sprinklers, intruder alarms and fire alarms · Secure all doors, windows and skylights · Secure storage and other low-traffic areas.

Film crews have returned to south Aldergrove to begin the work on the second season of the A&E series, Bates Motel, only this time the house on the hill will have a real roof. The 13-ton roof was built and lifted atop the facade last week. The first season’s exterior shots used computer generated images to provide the roof, while the interior shots were filmed on a set elsewhere in the Fraser Valley. The Bates Motel in front of the house is used for both exterior and interior filming. The hit series is a prequel to the 1960 Alfred Hitchcock horror film, “Psycho” (based on Robert Bloch’s novel). *******

Cohee set to soar with Redhawks Walnut Grove’s Jadon Cohee commits to Seattle University
GARY AHUJA Times Sports
Jadon Cohee’s game is going south, but that’s a good thing. Cohee has verbally committed to attend Seattle University and join the Redhawks basketball program beginning September 2014. He is entering Grade 12 at Walnut Grove Secondary next month. The 17-year-old announced his decision via Twitter last week and then formally announced the decision on Tuesday afternoon in the gym at Walnut Grove Secondary in front of his family, friends and teammates. “It was the right fit,” Cohee explained about his decision. “I have had a really good bond with the coach for a while.” “And I thought playing for a point guard would be really good for me to maximize my potential,” Cohee added, referring to Seattle Redhawks coach Cameron Dollar, a former UCLA point guard. A couple of other factors for Cohee were the fact the Redhawks roster already boasts a pair of B.C. players — Vancouver’s Manroop Clair and Emerson Murray — and the fact Seattle is just a few hours away from home. The next NCAA signing period is in November, which is when Cohee could sign his National Letter of Intent to attend the university. Until the school receives that signed document, they are not permitted to comment on Cohee. For his part, Cohee is glad to have the recruiting process over with.

Photo above: Walnut Grove’s Jadon Cohee drives the ball to the hoop during the B.C. high school AAA championship game against White Rock Christian Academy, earning touranment MVP honours as the Gators won the title ; Right: Cohee, who enters Grade 12 at Walnut Grove, has verbally committed to attend Seattle University. “It was really stressful,” he said. “I would be on the phone for an hour every day talking to coaches. “It was humbling, but it really got frustrating after a while.” Cohee said he had interest from about 15 schools and he received two verbal offers. He could have waited to see if more offers came in, but was sold on Seattle. Both his high school coach — Walnut Grove’s George Bergen — and his summer travel team coach — Drive Basketball Academy’s Pasha Bains — said the Redhawks are getting a good one in Cohee. “They are getting a very versatile and athletic combo guard,” Bergen said. “And they are getting a team player. One of his best qualities is he always includes his teammates and loves his teammates.”
“They are getting one of the best B.C. high school players of all time, in my opinion, and a proven winner,” said Bains. “A real determined, focused kid who is going to be successful just because he has so much passion for the game.” Cohee played for the senior Gators team when he was in Grade 10, earning a provincial first team all-star in helping the team finish second at the B.C. high school AAA championship. And last season, he was named a first team all-star again and the tournament’s most valuable player as the Gators won the championship. “He is already so decorated and accomplished but I think the best is yet to come,” Bains said. “You always knew he was going to be a good player once he grew into his body.” Cohee has been attending

Drive for the past five years. “He has really good size (six-foot-four) at the point guard position and he almost plays like he is on ice when he does some of his moves, he is that smooth,” Bains said. “And mentally, he is more determined and focused than any kid we have ever had and I think that is why he has been so successful.” Cohee has played basketball since he was about five years old, following his father Mike, into the game. The elder Cohee played Canadian university basketball, helping Concordia win the national championship in 1990. Jadon Cohee was first featured in the Langley Times in a June 2007 article, when he was 10. In that story, he stated then that his goal was to earn a NCAA scholarship.

“I was always confident I would achieve this if I worked hard and that is what I have been doing,” he said. “It has basically been my dream since I was a little kid, but this is only the beginning.” He still has his eye on winning one more provincial championship with Walnut Grove before he embarks on his Division 1 career in Seattle. “Any time one of the Canadian boys gets a Division 1 school scholarship opportunity, that is a huge accomplishment,” Bergen said. “And he is going where he will get an opportunity with an up-and-coming program.” Cohee added that without the support of his parents, Mike and Christine, and his coaches, none of this would have been possible. “They have always been there for me,” he said.

MIRANDA GATHERCOLE Times Reporter
It was back in 1963 when the Flippers swim club made their first splash in Langley waters. Then just a small club teaching local kids how to swim, fifty years later the Langley Flippers have much to boast about. With 90 members in the club this year, and several alumni that have made it to the national, international and Olympic levels, their competitive programs are renowned in the Fraser Valley. Just this past weekend, 13 gold medals were captured by Flippers and several records were broken at the 2013 regional championships, which the Flippers hosted at Al Anderson Memorial Pool. William Karpan took gold in the Division 5 100m IM, 100m breaststroke and 50m freestyle, and also took silver in the 50m butterfly. He was awarded the Division 5 boys aggregate award for his accomplishments. Division 8 swimmer Chelsey Salli set new meet records while winning gold in the 100m breaststroke, 50m butterfly, 100m backstroke and 200m IM. In the “O” 2 Category, Emily Halijian took gold in the 100m freestyle, 200m IM and 100m butterfly and set regional meet records in both freestyle and IM. Meghan Hum won gold in the 50m freestyle and 50m fly, silver in 200m IM and bronze in the 100m butterfly. The Division 8 girls medley relay team, made up of Flippers Meghan Hum, Emily Halajian, Chelsey Salli and Rachelle Salli, also shattered the previous event record by 10 seconds.
It’s the club’s belief in promoting the “personal best” in everyone that helps make their swimmers so successful, (title) said Lainie McCartney. McCartney is a parent of a club member and also sits on the executive board. “The swim club provides a great opportunity for kids to make friends, share the spirit of a team environment, and improve fitness,” she said. “The club continues to strive to teach the swimmers to master the basic skills of swimming — a skill that will last a lifetime.” Operating as a not-for-profit run by volunteers and parents, the club offers four different programs — learn to swim, little flippers, speed swimming and water polo. During the season, which runs from May to August, swimmers ages four and up receive coaching on freestyle, butterfly,
breaststroke, backstroke and diving from a block. Having kids in the program herself, McCartney has seen first hand how competitive swimming can impact their lives. “Not everyone will win the race but it is through team spirit, commitment and the mentoring that a team environment provides that swimmers can achieve their own accomplishments, and that is a huge reward for a young swimmer,” she said. “Whether you are four-yearsold or a swimming parent, there are plenty of reasons to celebrate the Langley Flippers. “It’s a sport that the entire family can participate in. Many Flipper parents are also members and swim with the club. Physical fitness and the lifelong skill of swimming is promoted by the club and its continued success, generation after generation — it’s worth celebrating.”

Players deliver ‘special moment’ Fusion display sportsmanship in helping fallen opponent They may have lost the gold medal match at the provincial championships, but the Fraser Valley Fusion 97 fastpitch team left a lasting impression thanks to a wonderful display of sportsmanship earlier in the tournament. The Fusion fell 7-0 to the Delta Heat 97 in the championship final of the U16 A provincials, which were held at Victoria’s Helmcken Park at the end of July. During the team’s playoff game against Surrey — when a loss would have dashed their chances of winning
a medal — an opposing player hit a three-run home run to tie the game. But while rounding first base, she twisted her ankle and by the time she got to third base, was in serious pain. Because she was already on the base paths, it was too late for a pinch runner and any assistance from a coach or trainer would have resulted in her being called out. And that is when the Fusion players took over. Remembering a similar story from an NCAA game a few years back when an opposing team carried a player home, the Fusion players went up and picked up the player and helped her cross home plate for the tying run with the fans cheering them on. “It was awesome,” said
Fusion coach Gord O’Grady. “They did it completely on their own; they knew it was the right thing to do (and) it was a very special moment I won’t ever forget.” The Fusion would go on to win the game 9-7, as well as one more game against the Surrey Storm 98 to make it to the semifinals. And in that game, Fraser Valley played “the game of their lives” in upsetting the top-seed White Rock Renegades 97 2-0 with a great defensive performance. But playing their 10th game in three days against a wellrested Delta squad proved too much as the Fusion fell 7-0. Fraser Valley had gone 3-1 in the round robin to place fourth and advance to the playoff round. Altogether, the team went 7-3 at provincials.
Blaze earn all-star honours The Langley Blaze were well represented on the 2013 B.C. Premier Baseball League all-conference rosters. The U18 baseball team placed three players on the first team and another four on the second team. Outfielders Mitchell Robinson and Shoma Sasaki and catcher Luke Horanski earned first team honours while infielders Michael Dagg and Griffen Andreychuk and pitchers Liam Stroud and Kyle Ross were on the second team. Ross was also named the rookie of the year after going 9-1 with a 1.68 earned run average. Stroud was 6-2 with a 1.76 ERA. Dagg (.385), Sasaki (.373), Horanski (.370) and
Robinson (.369) finished second, third, fourth and fifth, respectively, in the league. Andreychuk (.355) wasn’t far behind at seventh. Tyler O’Neill and Brayden Bouchey were also honoured for significant accomplishments. O’Neill was the highest drafted Canadian in the MLB Draft, going in the third round to Seattle, while Bouchey threw a pair of no-hitters. Prior to getting drafted and turning pro, O’Neill was hitting .587 with eight home runs and 49 RBIs in 19 games. He would have won both titles had he played enough games. Bouchey finished the season 8-0 with a 1.24 ERA.

o you own a business In Langley? Do you depend on a business in Langley to support your lifestyle? Do you live in one of the Langleys and enjoy the benefits of the community?
If you said yes to any of these questions, then you want to circle September 7th, 2013 on your calendar. This will be your opportunity to help to promote the area with the help of hundreds of other people and with the assistance and encouragement of the city council. We will host a show that day that will bring about four times as many visitors to the city as we have residents. That is the day to get out and both enjoy and promote your community to those visitors. The city will spend considerable effort and resources to assist a host of volunteers and sponsors as well as the businesses of the city to create a show that is second to none in size and value to your community. That event is the Langley Cruise-In. While many think of this as a car show (with solid reasoning behind their conclusion, I might add) businesses in Langley need to view it as a showcase of their community. There will be about 100,000 visitors to the city that day. The downtown core will be converted to pedestrian friendly for the day so people can walk the streets and have a first hand look at what we have to offer as a city. There will be buzz of excitement in the air, there will be eye-candy parked
along the streets to keep all ages of people agog, and there will be things to do and see on that day that will not be available to see for another year. Do your thing to get involved in promoting Langley and invite some extra people to come see what we have to offer that day. The future of our area requires growth, and the electricity will be in the air anyway, so don’t let the energy of the day go to waste. The volunteers who run the Langley Good Times Cruise-In are a wonderful bunch. They come out to meetings starting in December and carry on right through October with the wrap up. They give of their time and energy continually. Do you know any of these people? Is there anything that you can do that may assist them? Have you resources available that could help them to organize and pull off this car-show more easily or at a lower cost? As it is a charity fund raiser, we are always on the lookout for people and companies that are willing to contribute cash or valuable services that we would otherwise need to purchase. Our mandate is to find the most cost effective way of putting on a high quality show while raising the most money possible. If you have resources or cash available to contribute, please contact us at langley@langleycruise-in.com to let us know and we will contact you very soon.

Blaze rally to down Sun Devils for B.C. title
CHRISTIAN J. STEWART
Island Sports News
The Langley Senior Blaze have done it again, capturing their second consecutive B.C. provincial senior men’s baseball championship. Langley was facing the Kamloops Sun Devils on Monday afternoon at Victoria’s Lambrick Park. Langley had advanced straight to the championship game after a 4-0 round robin record. The Sun Devils won 4-3 but since the playoffs were a double knockout format, one more game was needed. And twice Kamloops led in the climactic game, going ahead 4-1 and 5-4, but Langley rallied both times to win 8-5. “It feels great to come through with the win,” said Blaze coach Dave Daichuk. “It was a tough grind (but) our boys battled hard and we got our hits and scored our runs when we
needed to, especially in that sixth inning today.” In that inning, the Sun Devils scored once to go ahead 5-4 and had the bases loaded with one out. But Jesse Peters induced a ground ball force out at home and then a fly out to escape the jam. Joe Germaine tied the game with a solo home run — his second of the game — to start the bottom of the sixth and that was a sign of things to come. Zach Mihic got on base with a double and then scored on Graig Merritt’s two-out double for Langley’s first lead, 6-5. And Scott Webster would put the final nail in the coffin with a two-run blast to make it 8-5. Any chance of a comeback was snuffed out as reliever Shawn Schaefer retired the side in order in the seventh to close the game out. Mike Krische also had an RBI single while Clayton Howell had a sacrifice fly. The team’s other run

Lords reconvene for anniversary Junior hockey team was ‘centrepiece’ of community
MIRANDA GATHERCOLE Times Reporter
It’s been several decades since Ron Livingston has been to a junior hockey game. After he sold the Langley Lords BCJHL team in 1977, he never did make it back to watch them play again. But the impact the former Lords general manager made on the league in Langley forty years ago continues to be seen today. Now operating as the Langley Rivermen in the BCHL, it was by chance that the Lords came to Langley in the first place. Livingston and his good friend Gil Lundihn originally ran a development team in Kerrisdale for the Vancouver Nationals, which played out of the Pacific Coliseum. However, when the World Hockey Association was started and took over the Coliseum rink, the Nationals moved to Kamloops and became the Kamloops Chiefs in the Western Hockey League. It was at that time in 1973 that Livingston and Lundihn decided to “try out this junior hockey” and move their team to Langley to play at the brand new Civic Centre rink (now called the George Preston Recreation Centre). With Livingston as the GM and Lundihn as the head coach, the Lords were a tough sell to Langley residents at first. No one wanted to pay to watch junior hockey. In the summer months leading up to the Lords’ first season, they rented out the building on the corner of Fraser Highway and 56 Avenue (where Old Yale Bistro is located today) to promote the new team. The only income they had for the Lords was from ticket sales and ads in their programs, so it was important to get the community on board. Running a junior hockey club is very expensive,” Livingston said. Everything is supplied to the players and the equipment for junior players costs the
same as it does for the pros. In a recent conversation with past player Larry Playfair, who was drafted by the Buffalo Sabres, Livingston was amused to hear that the players all thought he and Lundihn were rich. “Larry said to me, ‘I always thought you and Gil were rich,’” Livingston said. “’You had all these people in the stands and they were buying tickets. Then I got involved in junior hockey as an owner, and it’s a money pit. There’s no end to it.’” The first season for the Langley Lords started in September 1973, but the Civic Centre wasn’t completed until December. That meant all of the first games and practices had to be played out of town and Livingston and Lundihn had no income in the first half of the season. But luckily for them, Langley quickly fell in love with the Lords. With only a movie theatre and a drive-in offering entertainment to residents, junior hockey became a centre piece of the community, Livingston said. They would get 800 to 900 fans every home game, which created a real buzz in the 1,400 seat Civic Centre. “One thing Gil and I prided ourselves in is that when we sold the hockey club we didn’t owe a cent to anyone,” Livingston said. “I live in Langley, Gil lived in Langley, and you can’t owe $10,000 to someone and walk past their store everyday. We would not have allowed that to happen, we would have borrowed money to pay them back if we had to.” Many of their players also went on to lead very successful hockey careers. About 99 per cent of their players were drafted, Livingston recalled. They didn’t necessarily make it to the big leagues, but they were given an opportunity to try, he said. That includes players like Playfair, Barry Beck and Ryan Walter, who all had
long NHL careers. Walter won a Stanley Cup with Montreal. “For many of the kids it was their first time away from home — many coming from communities like Fort St. James or Smithers,” Livingston said. It was important to help them excel in hockey, but it was equally important to inspire the kids to do well in school and in life away from the ice rink. “Junior hockey was an opportunity for young fellows to
improve their hockey skills and hopefully make the pros,” Livingston said. “But on the other end, for the people who run junior hockey clubs, we’re there for the kids — to help them excel in whatever endeavors they do.” ••••• Many past Lords players and their families were in Langley on Sunday (Aug. 4) at a 40th anniversary celebration party at Livingston’s home.

On the surface, the victory looks great: Langley Rams 69 Westshore Rebels 10. “Don’t get me wrong, I love a win, no matter by how many points,” said Rams coach Ted Kirby. “It looks like a big win, and it is, but what I have to take away is we have to get better in all three facets of the game.” He was talking about the Rams’ win on Saturday at McLeod Park, which improved the team to 2-0 in the B.C. Junior Football Conference. “Our offence was great and our defence was relentless,” he said. The only bone of contention Kirby had was penalties: Langley committed 18 infractions for 167 yards. Even worse, it nullified three touchdowns. “The penalties? That is unacceptable,” he said. “That is not the kind of team I want us to be. We need to work to make that a

By halftime, it was 56-3 and the Rams were resting starters on both sides of the ball. Quarterback Jahlani Gilbert-Knorren
had another big game, throwing for three touchdowns — a 15-yarder and a 53-yarder to Dan English and 97-yarder to Malcolm Williams — as well as running for one, from 19 yards. Kyle Albertini (47 yards) and Nathan Lund (24 yards) both scored rushing
touchdowns. The defence also got into the act as Nathan Shepherd returned a fumble 17 yards for a score and Ben Sharpe scored on a 75-yard interception return. The Rams play Aug. 10 at Caledonia Park against the 1-1 Vancouver Island (VI) Raiders.

Helena Elizabeth McMann passed peacefully into the presence of her Lord on July 31, 2013 in Langley, B.C. Born in Langham, Sask., Helena spent most of her adult life on Vancouver Island before moving to Langley in 2011.

It is with deep sadness and heavy hearts that we say goodbye to our dear friend Bob, born 1945 in Vancouver, passed over July 20th, 2013 at home with Lynda at his side. Bob was a local businessman, automotive technician by trade, since 1973 with Langley Texaco, Murrayville Esso and then Murrayville Automotive. Bob was Langley's oldest teenager, self-proclaimed, known for his infectious laugh, late night Friday night wind-downs at his shop, motor home road trips at the drop of a hat, late night concerts full blast of The Eagles, Elvis and Fleetwood Mac. He loved hot-rods, fast cars of which started at a young age on 216th St. hill with soap boxes, loved to see and give a "smoke show", loved to rebuild old broken abandoned and injured cars, had a heavy foot at times, more so in his younger years and of course was called by his first name by the local authorities. He was a social butterfly, friend to all and loved by all who were fortunate enough to know him. He loved camping and fishing at the Coquihalla Lakes, his favorite spot, was known for his leaky rubber dingy, floppy fishing hat, dragging a huge Ford fender trying to catch the trout that were wondering what the heck that was floating in our lake, loved motorcycles and dirt biking. He loved to watch the cooking channels for ideas for Sunday "appys" - some not so good when recipes were altered by Bob. He was King of "Beaver Flats" as he called it, sitting on his rock in the middle of the cul de sac just pondering life. Bob loved "his people" as he called us all. Bob was predeceased by his son Jeff in 2005. He will be greatly missed by his families, many close, dear and true friends and all that had the chance to get to know Bob. No service at Bob's request, just "a toast to life". Thank you to all of Bob’s loyal families, the Bakkers, Jesiaks, and Stewarts and dear friends who over the past year have given their love and support. We will miss you Bob, as you say you were "JUST DRIVING BY".
