Heavy rainfall washes out Township road LIMITED DAMAGE CAUSED BY WEEKEND STORMS M ON I QU E TA MMING A • Time s Re po rte r

BOAZ JOSEPH • Black Press

Jack Shields, 6, was among nine young pediatric oncology patients at Surrey Memorial Hospital (SMH) who got a chance to drive miniature electric Ferraris in front of the new Critical Care Tower on Sept. 22. The racetrack was provided by Friends of Ferrari, a charity that has also donated $5,000 to the Surrey Memorial Hospital Foundation. Shields, who lives in Langley, was diagnosed with a form of leukemia on March 11, and is receiving treatment at SMH and the BC Children’s Hospital.

The monsoon rains that drenched Langley on the weekend didn’t cause too many problems in Langley Township, but it did cause a washout in the 3100 block of 232 Street, said Township assistant fire chief Bruce Ferguson. “An existing storm pipe washed out in the storm,” said Township water resources engineer Meghan Lee. She said the storm pipe wasn’t part of the new infrastructure in the area, but is tied into the project. The road there was closed for much of the summer. It was again closed for part of the weekend, after the washout occurred. With the washout, more than three metres of asphalt crumbled away. The storm pipe was off on the shoulder, so that shoulder is in bad shape, she said.

The Township has been working on replacing a main culvert in the area as well as a slope stability and drainage project which is still underway. Township road works and engineering were busy Monday working on the road. The road is down to single-lane, alternating traffic. The hope is to have it reopened both ways by later this week. Lee said no vehicles were caught up in the flooding. At least one vehicle ended up in the ditch after hitting pooling water just off the 232 Street exit on Sunday night. But Langley did manage to avoid the power outages that hit the rest of Metro Vancouver. This was the second rainiest September since 2004, reports Environment Canada.

Brent Parent was in the B.C. Court of Appeal in Vancouver on Monday hoping to reduce his driving ban. Parent, 43, is appealing his 12-year driving ban which begins after he is released

from jail. His lawyer will argue that the ban is too long and will make it difficult for Parent to find work. In May 2012, a B.C. Supreme Court judge sentenced the Langley man to five and a half years behind bars and a 12-year driv-

Cops for Cancer gets rolling ENTHUSIASTIC CROWDS TURN OUT FOR TOUR DE VALLEY KICKOFF IN ALDERGROVE KU RT LA NG M A N N • B l a ck Press

Thunderous roars greeted the Cops for Cancer Tour de Valley team at two Aldergrove schools Thursday morning when the cyclists rolled into the school gyms. The good cheer and spirit the team brought to hundreds of youths was also tinged with bittersweet poignancy as the assemblies shared recollections of the children who lost their battles with childhood cancer alongside the stories of those who conquered the disease. Christopher Sperger was a seven-year-old Shortreed Elementary school student when he finally succumbed to his long battle with cancer six years ago. The tour’s first stop Thursday morning was at Shortreed, where the assembly commemorated the popular youngster’s memory. His mother, Theresa, presented each team member with a set of beads, in thanks for their support during his battle with cancer. Christopher had been a junior team member of the Tour de Valley and had thoroughly enjoyed accompanying the cyclists in one of the convoy vehicles. “It’s very emotional but a good emotion,” Theresa told Black Press. “After six years they still remember him, and share stories about him among themselves. As a mother, you can’t ask for more.” The team’s next stop was at Aldergrove Secondary, where the tour’s official opening ceremonies were held in front of the middle and high school students. Junior team member Emmily Eckert, 18, of White Rock, received rousing applause from the students as she talked about her eight-year involvement with Cops for Cancer. Her battle began with chemo at age five, but she has now been in remission for nine years. “I have been honoured to be part of the Cops for Cancer for eight years,” said Eckert. “They have brought hope and

The Cops For Cancer ride began Thursday morning in Langley. Officers from a variety of law enforcement agencies are spending eight days on the road to raise money for kids with cancer. joy into a difficult situation, have cheered my miracle, and I am grateful.” Cops for Cancer captain Chris Rosenberger, who serves with the Canadian Border Services

Agency in Aldergrove, also spoke of his own daughter, who was diagnosed with cancer at age two but is now in remission and is a happy little girl starting Kindergarten.

He thanked the high school for raising $800 for Cops for Cancer by logging 800 kms on stationary bikes and told the assembly that credit goes out to all youths who have supported the tour with fundraising: “It’s about kids helping other kids.” Assistant captain Trevor Sales, of Abbotsford City Police, said team volunteers had also shared the Camp Goodtimes experience with young cancer survivors: “It was an absolutely wonderful time; a place where they could be regular kids.” Since the B.C. run started on Vancouver Island in 1998, Cops for Cancer has expanded into four tours which have raised more than $25 million collectively to fund programs and research for children with cancer.

There have been growing successes in treatment, as currently 82 per cent of children survive their cancer battles. All of the Aldergrove schools also held their School Terry Fox Runs on Thursday, following the Cops for Cancer visit. The Cops for Cancer team passed through White Rock on Friday, Abbotsford on Saturday, Hope on Sunday, Chilliwack on Monday and Mission on Tuesday. They will then ride through Ladner, Tsawwassen, Surrey and North Delta on Wednesday, before returning to Abbotsford on Thursday and Friday. As of Thursday morning the Tour de Valley has raised more than $200,000 this year. Visit copsforcancer.ca to make a donation and to learn more.

Parent serving time in jail for ‘ruining people’s lives’ SILAS O’BRIEN RUN OVER AND KILLED IN 2008 From Page 1

Originally, Parent sought to have his sentence overturned and his conviction overturned as well. He filed his appeal with the Court of Appeal on June 4, 2012. After Parent was sentenced, O’Brien’s father Rodger spoke to the media, saying the sentence was what he expected. Parent has 64 driving convictions and five driving suspensions. O’Brien said at the time that he didn’t think Parent would appeal the sentence. In court, Parent said he was very sorry for “ruining a lot of people’s lives” but then asked that the judge not put him away for a “long time.” In the early morning hours of March 13, 2008, O’Brien, and his two best friends were on their way to a Seattle airport, looking forward to their first vacation together to Hawaii. Parent, who was driving a diesel Ford F350, became enraged when he thought that the Chevy Silverado O’Brien was riding in had deliberately flashed its high beams at him on 16 Avenue.

Langley Time s file photo

Brent Parent and his wife arrived at the New Westminster courthouse during the course of his trial in the 2008 death of Abbotsford resident Silas O’Brien. Parent is appealing a 12-year driving ban. The judge said Parent refused to let them pass, causing the pickup carrying O’Brien and his friends off the road and into a ditch. Parent then returned to

the scene, where he swerved towards the young men who were standing on the shoulder of the road, striking and killing O’Brien.

It appears no one was injured after a traffic light was knocked over on to a car stopped at the intersection of Glover Road and the Bypass on Monday morning. Langley RCMP said the semi somehow lost control while headed north on Glover Road, driving over the meridian and the traffic light at the intersection. The crash snarled traffic for a few hours.

Suspect sought in BMO robbery Langley RCMP is seeking the assistance of the public to identify a man believed to be responsible for a robbery at the Bank of Montreal in north Langley on July 30. Around 10 a.m., a man approached a teller and produced a note demanding money. The teller turned over a significant amount of cash and the suspect fled the bank, said police. No

weapon was produced and no injuries were sustained during the robbery. The suspect is described as Caucasian, approximately 5’8”, 150 lbs., wearing along sleeve white shirt with the logo ‘SEAN JOHN’ and a black baseball cap with a New York Yankees logo.

ICBC vigorously denies claims made by lawyer INSUR AN CE C OMPANY NEEDS DETAILS BUT WILLING TO HELP COUPLE FR ANK BU C H O LT Z â&#x20AC;˘ Tim e s E di t o r

ICBC is vigorously denying claims by a lawyer in the Sept. 26 edition of The Times that it is unwilling to help a couple badly hurt in a crash on Saturday morning (Sept. 21). The Crown corporation says lawyer Wes

Mussio is incorrect in stating that ICBC is refusing to pay up-front for any of the medical bills incurred by Brandon Gullickson and Cassy Dryden. ICBC also questions his statement that his law firm had to pay for a halo brace needed for Drydenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s broken neck.

It says that should not require any payment, as that would be part of medical treatment. Spokesman Adam Grossman said ICBC would â&#x20AC;&#x153;be taking stern (legal) action against him (Mussio) for his commentsâ&#x20AC;? to The Times. Grossman said that

ICBC first heard about the 2 a.m. Saturday crash at Fraser Highway and 176 Street in Surrey on Monday, when a claim was made. The claimant, whose identity he is unsure of, stated that Gullickson was driving his car, hit a parked car and

pushed it into another. This is at odds with what The Times was told, that Gullickson was actually trying to jump start a stalled vehicle, when his parked vehicle was hit from behind. Grossman said ICBC knew little else about the crash until

FREE

Thanksgiving Turkey!*

the initial Times story appeared online late Tuesday. Mussioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s comments, made to The Times Wednesday morning, are untrue because ICBC has not refused to pay for anything. Mussio hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even talked to ICBC, Grossman said, when responding to the comments the lawyer made. The insurance company had placed two calls to the lawyerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office, which had not been returned as of late Wednesday afternoon. Its rehab co-ordinator had also asked for, but not yet not received, information from Royal Columbian Hospital, where the two are recuperating. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The injuries they (Gullickson and Mussio) suffered are incredibly tragic,â&#x20AC;? Grossman said.

He added that if Gullickson was indeed helping to jump-start a car, he would not be an at-fault driver, and would be considered to have been struck by the car as a pedestrian. Dryden is now out of hospital recovering at her auntâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s home. Gullickson is still in hospital and is expected to go into surgery on Tuesday (today). Both have a long road to recovery but are doing remarkably better than at first hoped, said Drydenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s aunt Patsy Davis. Davis has opened a community fund for the couple at Bank of Montreal in Langley. The account can be found under Cassy Dryden and Brandon Gullickson â&#x20AC;&#x201D; account 8964-842. There is also a Facebook page in their names.

An Abbotsford man involved in an unusual stand-off with police in Aldergrove last July was sentenced to probation in Surrey Provincial Court on Tuesday, Sept 24. Charles Raymond Charlton, 35, had been charged with carrying a concealed weapon, unauthorized possession of a firearm, and possession of a prohibited weapon with ammunition. In sentencing, all the charges against him were dropped except the one count of possession of a weapon. For that he received probation and a firearms ban. It was on July 13, 2012, Langley RCMP received a call at about 6 a.m. that a man with a handgun was in a home in the 3000 block of 271 Street. One man was immediately arrested at the scene, as a second man came out of a duplex wearing a camouflage hooded jacket and latex gloves, said police. RCMP say the suspect did not respond to police commands and attempted to re-enter the home, not realizing that the door had locked behind him. He then fled on foot and tried to get into a neighbouring residence. Officers had drawn their guns and were about 30 feet away from the suspect when he reached under his jacket to pull something out, said police at the time. Police demanded that he stop and raise his hands, but he did not comply. He then pulled out a semi-automatic handgun and threw it about 40 feet away. He was arrested, and a search revealed that a holster was located on his belt, along with tie straps in his pocket.

Thief steals, dumps bait car It’s not how it usually goes, but a thief managed to steal a bait car and dump it in Langley City before police could catch up to him. Now Mounties are hoping the public can help identify the man believed to responsible for the theft. The suspect allegedly stole the vehicle from the Langley City area just before 4 a.m. on Aug. 16. The vehicle was abandoned at the intersection of 206 Street and 53A Avenue a short time later. Normally, once a bait car is taken, police are able to deactivate its engine when it’s safe

The guest editorial on this page, from our sister newspaper serving Coquitlam and the other (four) cities in the Tri-Cities area, makes some excellent points about the challenge of getting rookie local politicians up to speed. There is lots of information to absorb when you’re part of a local council, particularly in large and growing municipalities. But that’s why there are seminars for newly-elected councillors — to learn how to manage this overflow of information and juggle it with other duties. Four-year terms for councillors will not solve this problem. Instead, what four-year terms will do is further entrench councillors so that they are rarely, if ever, thrown out of office. In Langley Township, no councillor seeking re-election has lost since 2005. Meanwhile, in the same period, two mayors have lost re-election bids. The longer that councillors stay in office, the less they listen to local residents. While there are exceptions, most become very comfortable with the information they are fed by top managers in their cities, and sympathize less and less with residents who have a problem with specific aspects of city administration. In terms of saving money, it would be very interesting to study how much money was saved when B.C. went from two-year terms to three years, in the late 1980s. It is almost certain that no money was saved at all. Council members in recent years have regularly raised their own wages by percentages people in the private esctor can only dream about. If there are actual savings from holding one less election over a 12-year period, it‘s a safe bet that the savings will end up in the form of larger council paychecks. What citizens truly crave is council responsibility, and that has nothing to do with the length of the term.

they

A number of interesting motions and discussions arose from last week’s annual Union of B.C. Municipalities convention, including a proposal calling for extending terms of office for mayors and city councillors from three years to four. Bring it on. Anyone who has regularly watched municipal politicians in action or has served on such a board knows the avalanche of information the newest members must absorb. On top of learning the history of past decisions and choices to create the proper context for making good decisions, rookies must try to memorize the process and learn how best to work within those confines to be the most effective. In our estimation, it takes between one and two years minimum for an elected official to reasonably understand how to do the job. Therefore, this only leaves about one year of a three-year term where they’re sufficiently proficient to best represent the people who put them into office. Extending a term by another year will give residents better bang for their tax buck, reduce election costs and council turnover, and put municipalities in sync with provincial elections. This timing would aid in limiting the costs some municipalities have had to accrue once a current mayor or councillor wins a provincial election, which, obviously, triggers costly byelections, such as the one about to happen in Coquitlam to the tune of around $140,000. The proposal passed with a 60 per cent approval rate, with one rural delegate stating the idea came from “professional politicians” in the Lower Mainland, where pay is higher. While that may be true, it doesn’t change the fact that this is an idea whose time may have come and it should be pushed forwarded as soon as possible. And it’s not as though there isn’t precedent for this in Canada. If such a plan is enacted, B.C. would fall in step with every other province except for the Yukon, Northwest Territories and Nunavut. Overall, we would be better served by having longer terms, both in terms of effectiveness of politicians and money saved by having fewer elections. — Tri-City News

Clear-cutting unnecessary

Cannabis rules compared to alcohol

PARKS SHOULD ALLOW FOR MIX OF USES

Editor: When prohibition first ended, alcohol was sold in liquor stores in controlled environments and served in bars under restrictions placed on entry by age. Period. Have you had the freedom of personal human rights to enjoy an alcoholic beverage without fear of arrest either privately in your own home, in public or even in another country? As time went by, alcohol consumption and domestic brewing laws were relaxed and now anyone without any regulation or licence can brew their own beer or wine in the privacy of their own home. They can also consume it there with their friends, provided everyone is responsible with the care and consumption of the alcohol and the law. Substitute cannabis for alcohol. I say that basic personal human rights are being infringed upon — rights already being afforded to alcohol consumers. This drags out this issue of cannabis consumption to the detriment of everyone involved, by instigating a segregation of human rights. We were allowed to cultivate our own herb. Under new medical marijuana rules, beginning April 1, 2014, we will not be allowed to have the same right we enjoyed.We will again watch our neighbours brew their spirits unhindered — in our faces, so to speak. Will this mean that I will need to ask for alcohol consumers to stop brewing their own domestic spirits in the privacy of their own homes because I don’t also have these rights as a cannabis consumer? Why the double standard? Cannabis — just like alcohol — is a pastime. It is a way to relax. Just like tobacco consumption. What do smokers say? I need a cigarette to relax. Beer brewers want more selection and everyone says it’s for personal enjoyment. If cannabis is decriminalized in the United States, then anyone that puffs for relaxation (even Justin Trudeau) should not be kept from entering into the U.S. from Canada. The world is becoming more aware of the practical uses of cannabis as consumers, and we as a whole world do not believe it should be a criminal act to cultivate or consume it. Once cannabis is decriminalized, the criminal element will be removed because it won’t be hard to get anymore — just like alcohol. Alcohol is allowed to be transported across the borders and is taxed. Cultivators and consumers will be responsible and regulated by law, as is the case with every product on the market today. Why is there a separate distinction for cannabis when all that is required is equality to alcohol consumers. Anyone whom has consumed alcohol and consumed cannabis can find no real distinction between the two. Comparatively they are the same. I want the re-institution of my basic personal human rights to consume and cultivate cannabis. KAREN MACK, COLD LAKE, ALBERTA

Editor: Re: South East Yorkson neighbourhood park site. Does it make any sense to clearcut a site of all mature trees to “make” a new park? Do you consider a soccer field and a park one and the same? Apparently Langley Township thinks so. In just one afternoon this summer, all of the mature trees were clearcut in this “ future park site “ to make way for two soccer fields. Until this summer, there had been a beautiful walkway lined with mature trees and frequented by wildlife, including an eagle and an owl, on this site. With all the media attention on tree cutting, particularly in our neighbouring jurisdiction of Surrey, where there have been many news stories with residents up in arms about destruction of trees, it surprises me that Langley demonstrates no hesitation in just mowing them all down.

And, because two soccer fields must be squeezed into this small site — despite several other field locations within a few blocks radius — there is no room left for anything else that might be considered parklike here. Residents of this area were all charged a hefty premium by builders, for homes backing on to this “future park site”. While it is certainly easier to plan a site starting from a clean slate, surely a balance could be struck between maintaining some of the existing environment and incorporating new elements, if any care was taken in the planning. I challenge the Township to use greater thoughtfulness in planning for new areas and strongly urge Langley to reconsider the plan for this site. NICOLE QUILTY, LANGLEY

Intersection sees too many crashes Editor: Once again, there was another accident at the corner of 62 Avenue and 202 Street. There are many such crashes involving vehicles exiting parking lots between 200 and 208 Streets It is about time that Langley does something about this corner. Every month there is a new accident. If the City doesn’t start accepting responsibility for the design flaw of this area of town, then it deserves to be in court.

To anyone who has had an accident on 62 Avenue and 202 Street, take Langley to court over the design flaw so they will have to react to the continuous problem this intersection has caused. DEEN HANNEM, LANGLEY Editor’s note — The intersection mentioned in the letter is on the border between Langley City and Langley Township.

Emergency officials appreciated Editor: At the time of the accident on Sept. 23, at 204 Street and 62 Avenue, I was at the Emergency Veterinary Clinic next door. From inside the clinic, I watched the fire, police and paramedics work with speed and calm professionalism. The fact that the air ambulance was on site within a very short time was incredibly impressive. We forget to thank

the people who work on our behalf every day to keep us safe, and to serve us in times of crisis. I wanted to take this opportunity to thank the hard -working, dedicated men and women out there who are so often take for granted. Please know that you are appreciated. WENDY LEPPER, LANGLEY

Trees cut down while birds nesting LACK OF TREE PRESERVATION BYLAW IN TOWNSHIP Editor: It is devastating to hear of tree cutting going on in the Fernridge/Brookswood area. I thought the Township had some kind of tree preservation bylaw? Maybe the new owner of the 198 Street property was following the example of Langley City? There were 28 mature trees (30 to 40 years old minimum) taken down off five properties this spring, near the nesting time for the local birds. The whole street heard the cries from the birds. It was for an approved townhouse complex. Construction is finally underway in September. The demolition of the houses and trees probably only

took one to two months maximum. Why did they have to do it at or near nesting time? When I asked the City how the trees were going to be replaced, I was told that the complex had a budget of $100,000 for landscaping (which I think could include brick pavers). It’s a spit in a puddle, if they are trying to replace those trees. I thought as a country,we are obligated to the world to reduce our carbon imprint? Langley is not doing a great job.

Residents and shoppers in downtown Langley City will likely be seeing more bus traffic and a whole new configuration of streets and intersections in the coming years. The City of Langley has endorsed a proposal by TransLink to relocate and expand the downtown bus loop from its current Logan Avenue location to a parcel of land between Cascades Casino and 203 Street. Jeff Busby gave council a detailed presentation of TransLink’s preferred new design at its Sept. 23 meeting, explaining that the plan calls for the extension of 203A Street from Logan Avenue through to Fraser Highway. Currently, 203A Street feeds into the Cascades Casino parking lot. The expansion will take the road between the casino and a piece of property owned by Langley Concrete and Tile, which is currently being used to store vehicles for sale. Once complete, the transit hub would

The overall design calls for a bus mall on the southern extension of 203A Street, with a transit plaza area on the west side of the mall, a preserved rightof-way for a future rapid transit station and “pocket plazas” at the new intersection of 203A Street and Fraser Highway. In addition to the extension of 203A Street,

the recommended exchange concept also requires the extension of Industrial Avenue eastward to 203A Street and two new signalized intersections at 203 Street/ Industrial Avenue and 203A Street/Fraser Highway. Meanwhile, 56 Avenue south of Fraser Highway would terminate in a cul-de-sac to remove the conflicting Fraser Highway intersection. By endorsing the Downtown Langley

Hall questions parking provisions at bus loop From Page 10

Councillor Dave Hall questioned how practical the downtown location will be for commuting drivers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I see where people will get on the buses. How will they get there? Are there parking provisions?â&#x20AC;? asked Hall. Busby replied that the City bus loop is expected to be used primarily by people changing buses and pedestrian traffic, while the Willowbrook hub will be more geared toward drivers using the system as part of their commute. There is also a park-and-ride in Walnut Grove for commuters who choose to take a bus into Vancouver. However, Busby added, there is nothing to prevent landowners from providing parking in the area surrounding the Langley City exchange. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It could well be a cash cow to anyone who wants to provide parking,â&#x20AC;?

$13.5 Million Deficit Retired Two Years Early

views

The approval of the 2012-2013 financial statements by the Board of Education at the regular meeting means that the $13.5 million deficit has been retired two years ahead of schedule. The deficit was discovered in the 2009-2010 budget year and the Ministry of Education originally approved a repayment plan that included payments of $3.375 million over four years, beginning in the 2011-2012 school year. The financial statements not only show that the deficit has been retired but also that the District has a surplus moving forward.

Students at Shortreed Community Elementary School combine fun with a cause at this year’s Terry Fox School Run.

Terry Fox Run Shortreed Community Elementary School was one of many Langley schools that joined thousands of others across the country on National Terry Fox School Run Day September 26th. After a warm-up and presentation on Terry Fox, students enjoyed a beautiful sunny afternoon circling the school field supporting Terry’s dream: a world without cancer.

Board of Education Chair Wendy Johnson is appreciative of the hard work and dedication of everyone in the District that has allowed for the accelerated repayment of the deficit. Superintendent Suzanne Hoffman commended the finance department for their excellent work and the efforts of those in schools and sites in working through the fiscal challenges.

A special prosecutor has been appointed to assess possible charges related to the B.C. Liberal Party’s ethnic voter outreach efforts last year. The RCMP and the criminal justice branch revealed Thursday that they are investigating a complaint of possible violations of the Election Act made in August. NDP leader Adrian Dix then announced that he made the complaint in a letter to police. Vancouver lawyer David Butcher has been appointed to assess the potential for charges arising out of former B.C. government staffers’ plans to use government resources to build support for the B.C. Liberal Party before the May election. Dix said in a statement the complaint related to allegations the NDP made in the legislature in July. Documents released after the election included an email from former government staffer Brian Bonney suggesting that a contractor be offered

a job to keep her from releasing damaging information. Bonney left his government communications job days before a draft version of the ethnic outreach plan was leaked to the NDP in February. Clark’s former deputy chief of staff, who distributed the plan, resigned along with another staffer, and Richmond-Steveston MLA John Yap quit his cabinet post as minister of state for multiculturalism. Clark’s spokesman Ben Chin said Thursday the government will “cooperate fully” with the investigation. A review of the plan by senior public servants found that Bonney’s conduct and the hiring of a contractor to do political work were “serious breaches” of the government employees’ oath. The plan focused on arranging government events for immigrant communities, and collecting lists of potential supporters for use by the BC Liberal Party in the election.

SPONSOR OF THE MONTH

Selected for the Emmy Bag >M ilsean Shoppe, a local family run chocolate company was honoured to be included in the Emmy Gift Bags this year in NYC on October 1st, 2013.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s quite an honour to be selected as only 30 products are chosen each year and there are a total of 800 gift bags. This sweet company is owned and operated by Maureen and Rob Robinson, who have been making chocolate confections together for the past 21 years. Their signature chocolate is a decadent, old world butter crunch that Maureen perfected from an old Irish family recipe. It is made with Fraser Valley butter, Demerara sugar, almonds, and Belgian Chocolate.

They have numerous awards to their name [i.e. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Best New Productâ&#x20AC;? 1992 Canadian Gift & Tableware Assoc., â&#x20AC;&#x153;Best New Productâ&#x20AC;? 1995, Canadian Fine Food Association] and their Demerara Butter Crunch has gone to the White House (during the Clinton administration). It has been sold across Canada in over 2,000 specialty gift stores since 1992. In 2002, Rob and Maureen purchased the old fire hall in their small town of Aldergrove, where they now do all their manufacturing and have an oldworld cafĂŠ & gift shoppe in the front. They create decadent desserts and healthy light fare using a multitude of ingredients like organic spelt, organic quinoa, alternative milks (rice, coconut, almond). All the items in their cabinet have complete ingredient listings so those with allergies, gluten free, or vegan can easily find what they need. Their signature espresso is organic and fair trade and they offer over 75 teas from around the world. Maureen is currently working on some new healthy additions to the menu that are exclusively â&#x20AC;&#x153;rawâ&#x20AC;?.

I would like to extend our thanks to everyone who responded to our â&#x20AC;&#x153;Call for Volunteersâ&#x20AC;?.

ttember Dinnner Meetiing we presented her w with a gift on behalf of the membbership and extended our best w wishes. A As you may hhave noted iin the local papers, the issue of derelict or abandoned buildings has recently been on the agenda of both the City and Township Council Meetings. The current Community Charter only allows councils to regulate and impose prohibitions for derelict buildings in very specific situations, such as health, safety or the protection of persons or property. These derelict buildings are a concern for the business community, as they can negatively impact the economic, social and cultural development of a community. At the BC Chamber meeting in May, our delegates supported the passing of a resolution calling for changes to the Community Charter, which would more clearly define what constitutes a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;derelictâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; property as

well as, provide municipalities enhanced ability to introduce policies, which would motivate owners of derelict properties to improve and maintain such properties. We strongly support the City and Townshipâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s recent attention to this issue, and we will continue to pursue changes at the provincial level in conjunction with the BC Chamber. A group of Board members and our Executive Director are attending the Canadian Chamber AGM in Kelowna to present policies and seek the support of the delegates with respect to increased Transparency in Credit Card Fees and the introduction of a National Integrated Crime Reduction Strategy. We will report back to the members after the conference. October is Small Business Month in British Columbia to provide an opportunity to recognize and celebrate the contribution of small business on the local, provincial and national economy. We will host the Annual Celebration of Excellence to recognize outstanding businesses and business people in the Langleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s. We hope you will join us at the celebration to congratulate them on their success and thank them for their contributions. Kristine Simpson, President

COFFEE HOUSE WITH DRIVE-THRU REPLACED BY RETAIL, PATIO SPACE BR END A A ND E R S O N • Tim e s Re por t e r

A Fraser Highway property which had been earmarked for construction of a popular coffee house was back before Langley City council on Monday, Sept. 23, with a proposed new look and new purpose. The parcel of land at 20112 Fraser Highway was slated to become the first Wired Monk in Langley to offer drive thru service, after a presentation was made to council in March, 2012. However, Bruce Olson, the owner of the roughly 10,000 square foot lot, located between Mr. Lube and Kostas Greek restaurant, appeared before council on Monday night to present a new design, which calls for a 3,000 square foot, single-storey structure featuring an outdoor patio area. Unlike the Wired Monk proposal, the current design does not call for a drive thru. During their discussion about the property in early 2012, council members expressed concern about the idling vehicles and long queues that tend to accompany them. The new design, by PJ Lovick Architect Ltd., raised a different question for council. The west wall of the proposed building is a large, windowless expanse, which Councillor Dave Hall suggested might prove tempting to

graffiti artists. Olson told council his concern is not so much with potential vandalism, saying graffiti is relatively easy to manage if it’s removed right away. “There are chemicals and stuff you can buy. Graffiti’s not that big a problem if you get at it right away,” he said. His experience has been that if graffiti is cleaned up immediately, eventually taggers will give up and move on. Olson also indicated that he’d met with the Langley Arts Council to discuss the possibility of public art to deter vandalism. The bigger problem, Olson said, is with homeless people camping behind the lot, where there is currently a wooden fence, trees and shrubbery, separating the empty lot from a back lane on its south side. “I want to remove the fence to allow (traffic to) exit through the back alley and help keep traffic off Fraser Highway,” said Olson. Olson said the encampments have created a mess, which includes discarded needles. “I want to clean all that up, open that up, install better lighting.” No indication was given of what type of business or businesses would occupy the building. Council gave its initial stamp of approval to the project at the meeting. No one from the public chose to speak about the proposal.

A sure sign fall is here is the annual Heritage Apple Day in Derby Reach Regional Park. This year, it is taking place on Saturday, Oct. 5 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Some of the apple trees, like the Wolf River apple tree, date back to the late 1850s, the era of the gold rush along the Fraser River. This free event offers lots of family fun, with farm chores for the little ones, old-fashioned games for the older kids, and apple tasting, pruning demonstrations, historic orchard tours and interpreters telling tales of ghosts under the trees. The Langley Community Music School fiddlers will be there to delight the crowd, while apple experts and arbourists will be there too. Â Even the coffee and doughnuts are free, thanks to Tim Hortons. Â Locally grown heritage apple trees and apple pies, either whole or by the slice, will be for sale too.

Big numbers for Langley food drive On Sept. 21, the BC Thanksgiving Food Drive (BCTFD) collected an estimated 402,000 pounds of food for 50 local food banks throughout the province. In Langley, the BCTFD event included more than 260 volunteers providing over 775 hours of service to the community. They were able to visit several

hundreds of homes and collected more than 14,400 pounds of non-perishable food for the Langley Food Bank. Excited by the amount of aid given, Langley Food Bank executive director George Vandergugten remarked, â&#x20AC;&#x153;We appreciate receiving much-needed contributions from the commu-

Trav+Ash+cats+dogs A PAIR OF PHOTOGRAPHERS TRAIN THEIR LENSES ON LANGLEY’S HOMELESS PETS A: I was actually searching online for our wedding photographer when I discovered work that just absolutely blew my mind, like everything from Sarah + Chris Rhoads. I didn’t know that photography could be so beautiful while being so sincere and a little unconventional. I became obsessed and later gave myself the permission to make my own impactful photographs.

B RE ND A A ND E R S O N

Local animal lovers will know them best as Trav+Ash — a pair of Lower Mainland blogger-photographers who have made it their personal mission to help Langley’s shelter cats and dogs find permanent, loving homes. By photographing some of the cutest furry faces the Langley Animal Protection Society has to offer and posting them online for the community to see, the White Rock couple have been drawing attention to the plight of dozens of animals at risk of living out the remainder of their lives in the shelter. Since Travis and Ashley Schulz began volunteering their time and artistic talents with LAPS, their images have melted hearts and helped some of the Patti Dale Animal Shelter’s most difficult-to-place inhabitants connect with caring humans. “We love them,” said Jayne Nelson, manager of animal welfare at the Patti Dale animal shelter. Trav+Ash first came to the shelter’s attention a few years ago, when they donated a photography package for a fundraising gala. Then, a little over a year ago, the pair returned to offer their services, photographing the dogs and cats. “Little did we know how talented they were,” said Nelson. The photos are beautiful, and they definitely attract people’s attention, she said. “That’s all we can ask for. Allowing the dogs’ and cats’ personalities to shine through in the images, that’s what it’s really about. “They’re so creative and so tuned in to the animals,” Nelson said. “They’re lovely together. And they’re so genuine and kind — to people and to animals — you just want to be around them.” Travis, 26 and Ashley, 25 met around the time they were finishing high school. Since then, the couple have lived in Chilliwack and now call White Rock home. Their images can be found on the LAPS Facebook page, on the couple’s blog at travandashblog.com and on Petfinder.com. The Times caught up with them recently to learn a bit about the couple and find out what drives them to donate their time and creative energy to helping shelter animals. Langley Times: Maybe begin by telling us a bit about yourselves. Travis (T): I’m passionate about doing anything that makes me feel alive. That includes art of all

A s h l ey S C H U L Z P h ot o

Travis Schulz, of Trav+Ash Blog says hello to Wilma, during a photo shoot at LAPS’ Patti Dale Animal Shelter. Travis and his wife, Ashley, are professional photographers who donate their time to the shelter to highlight the dozens of cats and dogs awaiting adoption. kinds, specifically photography. Also, spending time with Ash, with animals, in nature, exploring, getting my adrenaline pumping. Ashley (A): I treasure quiet moments, filled with love. I spend most of my time trying to see in new ways, looking for the magic that’s really everywhere. I love to tell heartfelt stories, especially with the medium of photography. I like to surround myself with animals and I enjoy being in an organic element of some kind like a forest or by the water.

LT: How did you two meet? A: We went to different high schools (Trav attended Walnut Grove Secondary and I went to Brookswood Secondary). A mutual friend was trying to hook us up and we talked online for awhile, but we didn’t meet face to face until right around graduation. We actually ran into each other totally unplanned. I was caught off guard and well, I fell for him immediately.

LT: How, when and why did you get started taking photos? A: I started playing around with the art of photography around 2009. I decided to explore it in a deeper, more impactful way around 2011, which is when Trav’s curiousity was spiked and we joined forces. T: Once I realized that I could draw real, raw emotion out of people. I had an epiphany that I didn’t have to take photos the way that everybody else takes photos.

LT: You specialize in wedding photography. Is that an area you’d aimed for from the outset, did it take that turn on its own or is it just that it’s the most effective way to make a living as a photographer? Do you branch out from that area much, aside from the animal photos? T: We certainly love the beauty of weddings and the sentiments around them, but we have found a deeper love for lifestyle work and we’re actually turning our focus in that direction. A: What we love about lifestyle sessions is that we get to be explorers of the intimate, of who people really are and the connection they share. It is absolutely thrilling to evoke emotion and to document real memories. And actually, volunteering at LAPS has hugely impacted what we want to photograph, too. We love every minute of our time spent with homeless animals and especially when we get to witness deep connections between humans and animals. Lately, we’ve been recognizing a need to photograph these special bonds. We both strongly believe that memories are the best thing we’ll ever have. LT: Talk a bit about Trav+Ash Blog — why did you start a blog as opposed to a more traditional website. T: The blog is a lot more personal and that’s the point of all of this for us. We want our subjects to cherish photographs that show who they really are — silly, weird, deep, whatever that may be. If we want sincerity from others, then we want to give that too. So, I think the blog says, “This is us. For real.” We want our blog to be a megaphone for us to tell true stories of people and animals. We want to be a little unexpected, to show people what they don’t realize they’re missing out on. And of course, a tool where we can continue to help save animals. LT: How and why did you become involved with LAPS? A: When we moved into our Continued Page 30

From Page 29

first place, the first thing we got before we even had any furniture, was our sweet dog, Marley, who we adopted in 2008. We were so excited to rescue a dog and we really just drove to the first animal shelter that we saw which was LAPS. Marley had been through a life of abandonment. Yet, he was so incredible and he showed us so much love. In a tragic turn of events, Marley passed from a horrible accident a few months after we adopted him. He so quickly became our everything and that just really broke me. But I made a promise to him that I would do everything I could to help other animals like him. LT: What is it about LAPS that convinced you to donate your time and artistic energy to their cause? T: With starting up our blog this past January, we just realized that we had this tool right at our fingertips to help animals. Choosing LAPS to work with was a no brainer. The whole adoption process with Marley was very educational and positive. The trainers help discarded animals become more adoptable, they seek the right match when placing an animal, and every staff member and volunteer is so kind and supportive. A: Plus, LAPS united us with Marley and that’s something we’ll always be thankful for. LT: Do you have any pets now? T: We have two dogs, Soda and Pickles. And a cat named Crackers.

A: We’re in the process of rebranding our blog towards our focus of lifestyle and animal photography, and we’re excited to announce that Soda, Pickles and Crackers are going to have their own little blog features so everyone can learn more about who they are and the important roles they play in our lives. LT: How much time do you spend at the shelter in a given month? T: We go every second weekend. Depending on how many new animals need to be photographed and how much time we can give, we’re there anywhere between three and seven hours at a time. LT: How has working with the animal models challenged you as compared to the human variety? T: We have to find different ways to communicate. An animal, especially in a shelter environment, isn’t going to necessarily listen to direction the same as a human would. A: I think there are more similarities than not. No matter if we’re photographing a person or an animal, we have to first build trust and get our subject comfortable with the situation. And just like people, dogs and cats each have individual personalities which requires us to discover different incentives that make that unique creature respond. Just like people, some animals are energetic while others are scared, guarded or slow to warm up. LT: What are some of the perks of working with animals vs. people? T: Well obviously, they’re cute

and cuddly. Most times, when you take a dog or a cat out to play, they’re just so stoked to be with you in that moment, totally present. A: There’s just this totally free feeling I have around animals. I can completely let my walls come down and not feel self conscious or not good enough. LT: What are you trying to convey in these photos? What stories are you trying to tell? T: We’re trying to give you a glimpse into who these creatures honestly are. A: Our hope is that you will see the essence of their souls through their photos and feel inclined to help that animal out in some way. LT: Any favourite four legged models so far? T: The big, misunderstood and misjudged dogs. A: I always favour the underdog … the black dogs and cats, the ‘bully’ breeds, the seniors, the injured or sick, the scared animals that require more patience. My heart goes out to the ones that the majority of us overlook. Gertie, the recently adopted senior pit bull was a long time favourite of mine. LT: Obvious question, but I have to ask it… What do you hope your photos will accomplish? T: Remind people every day what they have. Inspire people to be closer, live fuller, to love louder. A: Everything Trav just said. Plus the desire to adopt an incredible dog or cat instead of buying one.

You & The Law

PRESENTS Your New Commercial Lease Deal: Some Pointers Have you found a great property to lease for your office, store or industrial business? Here are some pointers to help you save money and get the best deal. Don’t be too quick to jump into rent and other negotiations with the landlord’s rep or listing agent. Consider engaging your own tenant’s rep to vet your options and help cut the deal. Most major real estate brokerage firms have agents specializing in commercial leasing. An expert tenant’s agent with good negotiating skills will add value for you. He or she has access to computerized, broadbased current market information you don’t, such as the landlord’s competition, upcoming vacancies, going market rental rates and tenant inducements. Remember that your lease is a key business asset (and obligation). It may also be important to a future buyer of your business, who will likely want to take over your lease. After initial negotiations, the landlord’s rep will likely give you a so-called “standard” document, summarizing the key business terms of your proposed lease. Usually only a short few pages, it may be called a “Standard Offer to Lease” or “Standard Agreement to Lease.” But don’t be fooled by the word “standard.” Landlords often tailor-make these documents (as well as their much longer leases) to protect the landlord’s interests; they may be “standard” only for the particular landlord and property. So don’t be rushed into signing on the dotted line. Once there’s a valid agreement to lease, it’s a binding contract with significant legal implications. Also, the document may have a supposed “boiler-plate” clause that obliges the tenant to sign the landlord’s standard form of lease agreement, to be provided later. Agreeing to this is definitely a bad idea. Many landlord “standard” leases are completely one-sided documents that no right-thinking tenant would

ever agree to. If you accept it sight unseen, you will have needlessly compromised your ability to negotiate changes that would make the lease more balanced. You should therefore see your lawyer before signing your initial offer to lease. After review, your lawyer can help clarify and nail down any uncertain, unclear and sometimes even inconsistent provisions in it. Uncertainty as to important terms could jeopardize your lease deal altogether. Your discussions may also bring to light new points that may lead to an improved deal with the landlord. For example, perhaps your landlord will accept a time limit on any required personal guarantees, or agree to make it easier for you to transfer (“assign”) the lease to a future buyer of your business, by agreeing to act reasonably in providing consent to such transfer. You might also propose exclusivity for the type of business you operate; limits on annual increases in certain shared expenses; lease renewal rights/options; expansion (or contraction) rights for your space as your business grows (or shrinks); restrictions on the landlord’s ability to relocate you to other premises; the right to register your lease at the land title office; and more – it all depends on your offer document and particular situation. Your lawyer will also put in the document that the landlord’s “standard” form of lease is subject to review and approval by you or your lawyer before you have to sign it. Bottom line? See your lawyer before you sign any papers about your lease deal, or if you encounter problems under your lease arrangements afterwards.

SAMC Theatre unveils a season of love and laughter It’s a season of love and laughter onstage at Trinity Western University’s School of the Arts, Media + Culture (SAMC). From the popular student festival showcasing brand new work, to theatre classics from Shakespeare and Shaw, there is something to entertain everyone. The season opens with George Bernard Shaw’s You Never Can Tell, running Oct. 22 to Nov. 2. Directed by Lloyd Arnett, this classic satire is set in Victorian England where a far-from-traditional family turns a quiet seaside resort topsy-turvy. As sparks fly between the eldest daughter and her womanizing dentist, the family’s longlost father appears with some plans of his own. It wouldn’t be a family vacation without a few fireworks. TWU 2012 alumna Becky MacDormand returns to direct Beth Henley’s sassy Pulitzer Prize winner, Crimes of the Heart. Playing Nov. 19 to 30, the show is quirky Southern comedy at its best. In this irreverent ride through a small town, three very different sisters are reunited by a surprising turn of events. Their poignant story offers plenty of laughter for anyone who’s ever loved and lost … or had a family. SAMC’s popular student-run festival, New Generations, kicks off the New Year with an explosion of short plays. A fast and funny showcase featuring the next generation of playwrights and directors, this is a weeklong smorgasbord of inspiring theatrical talent. Tickets are known to sell out, so mark your calendars for Jan. 28 to Feb. 1. One of Shakespeare’s most beloved romantic comedies,

Team U.S.A.’s Sean Rooney (left to right), William Priddy and Erik Shoji celebrate during their 3-0 victory over Team Canada in the gold medal match at the 2013 NORCECA men’s volleyball Continental championships at the Langley Events Centre on Saturday night. The week-long event featured nine countries competing for the gold medal.

Border battle for gold goes in favour of U.S. GARY AH U J A • T i m e s S p o r t s

Despite having the backing of the home crowd, Canada could not pull off the storybook ending, falling in straight sets to the United States. The two teams were playing in the gold medal match at the 2013 NORCECA men’s volleyball Continental championships, which concluded on Saturday night at the Langley Events Centre. NORCECA is made up of teams from North America, Central America and Caribbean regions of the International Volleyball Federation (FIVB). “It feels unbelievably good,” said U.S. coach John Speraw. “The goal was to win and we knew it would be a challenge because Canada has been playing some good volleyball. “At the end of the day, the most important tournament we play in, besides the

Olympics themselves, is the NORCECA tournament. “For us to come in here and win like we did is a wonderful achievement for our program.” The Canadians best chance came in the opening set as they held a 19-16 advantage, but the Americans — ranked first in NORCECA and fifth in the FIVB world rankings — rallied to tie the score at 21. The teams traded points to 23-23 before the U.S. scored the final two to win 25-23. Canada struggled to get their offence going after that first set as Gord Perrin and Dallas Soonias were held to seven kills apiece. And the team’s game plan changed after losing captain Fred Winters with an ankle injury, which affected their passing game. And that gave the American side momentum for the rest of the way as they won set two 25-20 and took the third set

25-14. The U.S. were led by tournament MVP Matt Anderson, who had an impressive final game with 14 kills and three aces. The Canadians — who had relied on their blocking game in winning their three matches without dropping a set en route to the championship final — had no answer for Anderson. The U.S. also out-blocked their Canadian counterparts 10-6. “I am more disappointed in how we played,” said coach Glenn Hoag. “We committed too many unforced errors. At this level, you can’t do that.” With the victory, the U.S. qualified for the FIVB Grand Champions Cup, which will be held in Japan in November. In the end, it was another learning experience for the Canadians, who had a big summer, knocking off the second-ranked Russian side — the defending Olympic

gold medalists — and climbing from 18th to 11th in the FIVB rankings. Canada was ranked third in NORCECA, but upset No. 2 Cuba in the semifinals on Friday night. Cuba then defeated Puerto Rico 3-2 (27-29,25-27,25-20,27-15,15-12) in the bronze medal match. Canada’s Rudy Verhoeff had a great return to Langley, winning the tournament’s top blocker award and also earning all-star accolades. Verhoeff played at Trinity Western University, helping the Spartans win CIS national championships in both 2011 and 2012. And while it has been a great few months for the program, he said the players are disappointed. “Obviously we are disappointed,” Verhoeff said. “Our goal was to win so to come up short is tough.” See more on page 38.

Long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFAs) have shown many benefits. They were already known to be critical to the development of infant brain and nerve tissue, but recent research is showing that effects persist beyond the structural growth period. Although there are no IQ differences, at age six, children exposed to LC-PUFAs processed information more quickly. Fortunately, they are found in breast milk and most infant formulas! Kids. Electronics. Inseparable â&#x20AC;&#x201C; right? And yet, we think we must separate them to get those kids moving. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s for their own good, right? Maybe not.

Aldergrove is now 5-1-0-0, good for top spot in the junior B Pacific Junior Hockey League. Ryan Simpson and Joshua Pollock put the Kodiaks ahead 2-0 in the first period and Stephen Ryan scored twice in the second period. Sandwiched in between was a goal from Port Moodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Sammy Zeinab. And the Panthers scored twice more in the third, both off the stick of Daniel Delbianco and they fired another 16 shots

on goal, but Cole MacInnes was up to the challenge. The goaltender finished with 38 saves on the night. With his two goals, Ryan leads the league with eight goals through the first six games of the season. Up next for Aldergrove is a home game against the Mission City Outlaws tomorrow (Wednesday).

Standing room only at LEC for gold medal game GARY A H U J A • Ti m e s Spo r t s

More than 10,000 fans — including standing room only in

the arena bowl for the final — flocked to the Langley Events Centre over the course of the week for the NORCECA men’s volleyball Continental championships.

“It was really exciting to see the full house that we had for the gold medal match,” said Hugh Wong, an international relations officer for Volleyball

Canada. He is also a vice-president and executive committee member for NORCECA and a member of the board administration for the international volleyball federation (FIVB). “We rarely see events at the NORCECA level that went as well as what occurred there. “The organization and operation of the event was excellent.” “I thought the Langley Events Centre did a great job in executing the event,” he added. The United States defeated Canada 3-0 (2523,25-20,25-14) to win the gold medal. Capacity in the arena bowl at the Langley Events Centre is 3,900 and once all the suites are factored in, total capacity is 5,276.

There were 4,097 fans on hand for the gold medal game and a total of 10,527 over the six days. Having Canada in the final “helped the energy in the building” said Jared Harman, the LEC’s director of business development. “Everything went awesome; it was a real fun week for everybody.” “The volleyball community was fantastic in helping support the event.” Wong said Volleyball Canada is still waiting on final numbers — such as how many people watched via webcast — before they can establish if the tournament met expectations. But early indications are that all went well.

“As the week went on, we could see the spectator base building, so we are pleased with that,” he said. “In terms of the organization of the event, the gold medal match, the exposure that the sport got in this part in Canada, all those things that are very very important to Volleyball Canada, I think it was a most successful event.” As for future events — the LEC also hosted the U23 men’s volleyball Continental Cup in September 2012 — Wong said this venue would be considered as host once again. “We have an obligation to host events right across the country (but) when an event comes up for the west, Langley will always

be foremost in our minds.” He did say that the LEC could potentially host some Volleyball Canada national events. “It is a marquee venue for some of our national events,” Wong said. “That is an option as well.” Coaches and players were also impressed. “It was a great atmosphere and a great venue,” said American coach John Speraw. Rudy Verhoeff, a middle on Team Canada — and former member of the Trinity Western Spartans squad — said it was a special feeling, playing for his country on home soil. “It was very special and an experience that I may never get again.”
