As Byron Smith walks past the slough on the 31-acre farm his family owns, a flock of geese takes angry flight, squawking into the air. Smith points to the place where Kinder Morgan is planning to run an oil pipeline, not far from the Salmon River. The ground underfoot is soaking wet. “This is a flood plain,” Smith says. “I don’t know how they’re [Kinder Morgan] going to manage it.” The pipeline is part of a plan to expand the capacity of the Trans Mountain Pipeline system that ships Alberta crude to the company’s Burrard Inlet oil terminal by building a second, larger line that would run beside the existing pipe most of the way, but diverting through farms like Smith’s to avoid built-up residential areas. Smith and his neighbours are fighting the proposal, warning a pipeline breach would be catastrophic. “It isn’t a question about if there is a spill, it’s when there is a spill,” Smith says. He thinks he and his neighbours have a reasonable chance of blocking the proposal based on the environmental impact, but that will only move the problem to another community because Kinder
Morgan will shift the line elsewhere. He believes the pipeline should not be built at all. “The people at each end of the pipeline are making money, but in between [there are few benefits for B.C.]” he says. “I really feel it is not a good business plan.” The 38-year-old married father of two grew up here and still lives on the 9100 block of 222 Street near Fort Langley, in a new house near his parents’ red brick home. He says he didn’t learn the much-discussed pipeline might be running through his backyard until this August. “We’re not in the room,” Smith says. “We’re not part of the conversation. And we were outraged.” Smith organized a Nov. 7 public community meeting on the pipeline that drew 100 people. At the meeting, Eoin Madden of Western Canada Wilderness Committee showed photos of the Enbridge oil spill in the Kalamazoo River in Michigan, and said Canada needs to follow the German lead and develop more wind, water and solar energy sources. Burnaby-Douglas NDP MP Kennedy Stewart, whose riding includes Kinder Morgan’s oil terminal, said a telephone poll of his constituents found 75 per cent opposed the twinContinued Page 4

A gathering to remember TH OUSANDS ATTEND MEMORIAL SERVICES FOR CANADA’S VETERANS DA N F ERGUSO N Tim e s Re po r t e r
Several thousand people attended the Remembrance Day services at the war memorial in Fort Langley on Sunday, Nov. 11. Piper Alexander Janzen led a procession of veterans with an honour guard of police and fire officers to the cenotaph. “We assemble here to honour those heroic men and women who made the supreme sacrifice to ensure that we, who survive, and generations to come, might live in peace and be free to pursue, within the bounds of decency, law and order, a way of life each one of us may choose,” said master of ceremonies
Warren Sommer. “Many others have died since their active day of service in wartime, and today we remember them too.” Among those present for the wreath laying ceremony were MP Mark Warawa, Langley Township Mayor Jack Froese, Township Councillor Grant Ward and Langley RCMP Supt. Derek Cooke. Members of the Fraser Blue vintage aircraft staged a fly-past. There were also large crowds at the Remembrance Day events in Aldergrove and Langley City. The flypast by Fraser Blues, who are based at Langley Airport, also flew over the other two Langley ceremonies.

ning of the pipeline. Stewart recently attended a National Energy Board public information session on the twinned pipeline in Edmonton. Nine such sessions were scheduled for the Lower Mainland, but he said they have all been cancelled. “They said too many people are interested in B.C.,” he said. Stewart will be setting up a website letbcdecide.ca to provide information about the pipeline plans. He expects Kinder Morgan to file a formal proposal to twin the pipeline on Dec, 16, and that will include the exact route it wishes to use. Liz McDowell of Conversations for Responsible Economic Development (CRED) said the pipeline will create no more than 50 to 70 permanent jobs in B.C., and contribute an average of $26.5 million in taxes each year to provincial and local governments. “The likelihood of an incident involving the pipeline is low,” she said. “If there is one, though, the consequences are catastrophic.” McDowell said the

Vehicle drives into Aldergrove community police station twice NO MOTIVE KNOWN FOR NOV. 11 INCIDENT INVOLVING JEEP Police don’t know the motive but they are looking for a man accused of driving his Jeep into the Aldergrove Community Police Office not once, but twice on Monday, Nov. 11. Around 12:30 p.m., Langley RCMP were called about a male driver that had just driven his older green Jeep Cherokee into the east side of the building, on Fraser Highway just west of 270 Street. The caller said the vehicle drove head
on into the building, then backed up and struck the building a second time, said Cpl. Holly Marks. The male driver is described as being in his 20s with black hair, no facial hair or glasses. He didn’t exit the vehicle, so no clothing description was obtained. The Cherokee was described as older with a push bar on the front. After the collision, a female joined the suspect in the vehicle and they
drove off. The impact caused a hole in the side of the brick building that ultimately caused further damage inside by pushing a stud wall and breaking the drywall. Damage is estimated between $2,500 and $3,000, said Marks. Police are working with ICBC to identify potential suspect vehicles. If you any information about this call Langley RCMP at 6045-532-3200.

Seniors Games logo unveiled When Adrian Brugge of Brugge Design was asked to create the logo for the 2014 BC Seniors Games, he had to consider an image that would reflect not only the 4,000 expected participants, but also the area which would play host to this world-class event. The participants, like the two Langleys where the Games will be held, have been around for a while, and both are proving that they still have a lot of vitality in them. Describing the logo, unveiled on Wednesday, Brugge says, “The wave of blue represents the Fraser River” — a tip of the hat to the river that gave birth to Langley and the province of B.C., two key participants in the Games. The river will also play a crucial role in several events, including dragon boat racing. The green figure moving across the red finish line represents the vital force that is found in the participants, and the “V” shape is a subtle reference to victory. In 2011, Langley already had a taste of what victory feels like when it experienced the rush of learning that it had been awarded the BC Seniors Games. Besides being a chance for athletes 55 and older to strut their stuff, the Games make a significant economic impact in the region. Athletes from across the province will descend on Langley from Sept. 9 to 13, bringing with them many support-

ive fans. They are expected to leave behind an estimated $2 million over the course of the Games, and attract extensive media coverage. Brugge says, “The sun represents both the province and the light within all of us that inspires others.” It also includes 12 rays representing the 12 regions of the province from which the participants will come. Encouraging a lifestyle that keeps seniors physically and socially active fits well with vision both Langley and the province have for their seniors. The Games will be a chance for athletes from across the province to demonstrate what it means to be a senior today. The BC Senior’s Games draws out not only the best in athletes, but also the best in the many volunteers who work together to create this event. Those who have had a sneak preview of the logo find the “V” shape also pays tribute to the spirit of volunteerism which is the very backbone of these Games. This event will mark the 27th anniversary of the BC Seniors Games. Organizers say that if the logo is any indication of what to expect, it looks like volunteers are gearing up to host the best Games yet. In recent years, Langley has also hosted the B.C. Summer Games and the B.C. Special Olympics.

Man dies after setting fire, barricading self in closet MONIQUE TAMMINGA Tim es Reporter
C URTIS KRE KL AU Special to th e Tim es
City of Langley fire crews work to extinguish a blaze at an apartment complex at 5375 204 St. on Saturday night. A 38-year-old man died in hospital following the fire, which he apparently started before barricading himself in a bedroom closet. The fire was contained to the bedroom of the first-floor unit.
A 38-year-old Langley man has died after starting a fire in his apartment bedroom and barricading himself in his closet on Saturday night. Around 10:20 p.m., Langley City fire crews were called to Brighton apartments at 5375 204 St. for a fire on the first floor. Once they arrived, it was quickly upgraded to a second alarm and 25 firefighters worked quickly to put out the flames, after hearing from residents that a man had trapped
himself inside, said fire chief Rory Thompson. “We had reports that someone had barricaded themselves inside the suite so one crew went in. The front door was open, however the door into the bedroom was barricaded and they had to force their way in,” said Thompson. “They put out the fire in the bedroom and found the victim inside a closet. He was in cardiac arrest.” The victim was rushed to Royal Columbian Hospital where
he was suffering from severe smoke inhalation. He passed away in hospital the next day. Meanwhile, all the residents of Brighton Apartments were evacuated and Emergency Services set up a retreat centre at St. Joseph’s Church. “Our fire crews did a great job of confining the fire to the bedroom. “No other suites were damaged in the fire and residents were allowed back into their homes that evening,” said Pete Methot, assistant fire chief.
Suspicious package turns FURNITURE & MATTRESS STORE out to be a false alarm About a dozen houses were evacuated around Glover Road and Rawlison Crescent near Fort Langley, after a suspicious package was found in the woods near the homes on Tuesday afternoon. The suspicious package, thought to be an explosive device, turned out to be nothing of consequence, confirmed Langley RCMP spokesperson Cpl. Holly Marks. The Explosives Disposal Unit attended and assessed the package, said Marks.
“They advise there is nothing of concern. Residents are returning to their homes and the road has been re-opened to traffic,” she said. The homes were evacuated out of precaution around 2 p.m. The package was discovered by a lawn maintenance crew who called police. Langley RCMP also had Rawlison Crescent blocked to traffic between 232 and 240 Streets causing traffic problems. That was re-opened at 4:15 p.m.

Question langeytimes.com
The turnout at the three local Remembrance Day ceremonies this year was gratifying to organizers and to the veterans and current members of the military who attended. Turnout has been on a steady increase over the past 10 years, as the number of veterans in attendance falls. While at one time there was a large number of Second World War veterans at each Remembrance Day event, the youngest of them are now in their late 80s. They will not be with us all that much longer. One factor that helps to increase the attendance is good gathering places. Langley City found this out the hard way, when the Legion branch on 56 Avenue and Eastleigh Crescent was sold. There had been a large amount of space to gather around the cenotaph there, but at the new branch down the street, space was very limited. A Remembrance Day service was held there, but there were a number of problems — not the least of which was how to accommodate the crowd. The City, to its credit, stepped in and decided to locate a new cenotaph at Douglas Park. This has proved to be an excellent place for the community to gather, and Remembrance Day services held there have been well-attended. The Aldergrove Legion has a large parking lot, and in addition the westbound lanes of Fraser Highway in front of the branch are closed during the service. This means that large crowds can easily gather around the cenotaph and take in the service. The Fort Langley ceremony at the cenotaph started off as a smaller gathering, but has grown substantially. While the cemetery it is located in is quite large, the day may be coming when it will be hard to accommodate all who wish to attend. The organizers of the Fort Langley event may want to give some thought as to how they will be able to accommodate a larger crowd than the one in attendance Monday, which they say was likely the largest crowd ever. All of these are good problems to have. It is clear that citizens of Langley are keeping the faith with those who died in past military conflicts. They are remembering.

Answer online at www.langleytimes.com
Embarrassing issue they
In a community as rich in human generosity as Sooke is, it is startling to learn of the plight of so many of our disadvantaged. They are the ones we don’t see in our day-to-day travels around the town. They are the ones sleeping under bridges and in the bush. They are the truly poor. It doesn’t matter what got them there or what they did, what matters is that they are among us. There are many options for them to get a meal or a hot cup of coffee, but what is missing is some sort of housing for those who are homeless. They may not want to be in an apartment or a room somewhere. What this province needs to do is to acknowledge that we have a serious problem and do something about it. There are communities who have tackled the problem and come up with micro-housing for their homeless. If local councils across the province were to insist that developers pay an “amenity” for a certain number of homeless “shelters” depending on the size of their proposal, we could have the problem licked. This doesn’t mean the homeless are housed on the development, it means money goes into a housing budget which is supported by all levels of government. It wouldn’t be a tent city, but it could be a block of micro-units in a place which would be suitable to this sort of “alternate” community. There has to come a time when food banks, homeless shelters in church basements and soup kitchens cease to exist. We are among the wealthiest countries in the world and we should be embarrassed that we cannot or will not look after our most vulnerable. Our priorities are skewed and we need to examine them. Most people on the street don’t choose that life, they are forced into it through unfortunate circumstance. There are many who are only one pay cheque away from the same fate. What would you do? Who would help you? How can you help? — Sooke Mirror

Pipeline of little benefit to B.C.
JAC K WIL L IAMS ON
Reader Jack Williamson makes a comment about Remembrance Day in words and in this line drawing.
Government hypocrisy Editor: As I left the wonderful and well-done Remembrance Day ceremony in Fort Langley, and after watching our Conservative MP lay a wreath, three things popped into my mind. One was how wonderful
the fly-past was, another was the word “hypocrisy” and the other was an image which I have tried to reproduce here (see above). JACK WILLIAMSON, FORT LANGLEY
Numbers are growing Editor: As one of the volunteers involved in the planning and presentation of Fort Langley’s annual Remembrance Day service, I continue to marvel at the number and diversity of people who gather around Langley’s cenotaphs every Nov. 11. People continue to come in ever-increasing numbers, and although the ranks of the veterans may be thinning, the number of young people attending and participating in these services is growing. This
gives us hope that the sacrifices of an older generation of Canadian servicemen and women will not be forgotten. On behalf of the organizing committee, I would like to thank The Times for its coverage of this season of remembrance. I would also like to extend our gratitude to all those who helped to make our service successful once again. WARREN SOMMER, CHAIR, FORT LANGLEY REMEMBRANCE DAY COMMITTEE
Editor: If you check on Alberta’s finances, you will be shocked. It turns out with all their gas and oil income, the government is still mounting up billions of dollars in deficit. If oil money worked the way we are told it does, they government should have massive surpluses. This is under a Conservative government. In my view, as long as you allow governments to have deficit financing, that is what you will get. Alberta has long been lucky enough to avoid a PST, but the present trend appears to be doing that by changing the former Heritage Fund to heritage debt. The Fraser Institute has reported on the downward spiral. Small wonder the Alberta premier is unwilling to share any oil revenues with B.C. Her province is going broke and it is about time someone owned up to the fact. Their premier calls it the bitumen bubble and explains that without massive increases in bitumen export, Alberta is in trouble. Others suggest a more responsible stewardship of provincial finances would have the same effect. Christy Clark and the B.C. government should stay the course on careful spending and be extremely careful when dealing with huge multinational companies who promise big profits which, by design,
they plan to keep for themselves rather than share with the taxpayers of B.C. The chances of spills along the proposed Kinder Morgan pipeline is 100 per cent, if the past performance of the Trans Mountain pipeline is examined. The only thing one can hope for is that spills will remain relatively small, infrequent, and occur in the least ecologically sensitive areas. While no one can say for sure that we will have a large spill, neither can anyone guarantee we will not. The technology to minimize spills has improved but it is nowhere close to foolproof. Bitumen is a relatively new substance with properties different from conventional oil, making it more difficult to contain or remove, especially in water. It is recognized that at this point pipelines are safer than other means of transport, but it still does not ensure that disasters will not occur. One of the reasons not to build on the floodplain is that in a natural disaster, such as an earthquake or flood, massive amounts of bitumen could be released into the groundwater supply, the Salmon River and downstream into the Fraser River. Fish kills would be inevitable. Agricultural production in the fertile valley would be curtailed and
the economic impact on the village of Fort Langley would be massive. Any economic benefits from the proposed pipeline in our community are small and will be mostly only during construction, while the potential for economic losses will remain for the life of the pipeline. It is hoped these issues will be carefully weighed before we give in to the demands of large foreign companies. I recognize that B.C. needs fossil fuels to sustain our way of life at present. The proposed pipeline does nothing to ensure a constant supply of oil for B.C. consumption, but rather will simply transport it from Canada to other countries. While we may become much less dependent on carbon fuels in the future, we should ensure that the present pipeline through our community will supply our needs until we can substitute reasonable alternatives. It appears that Kinder Morgan is much more interested in foreign markets than protecting the needs of B.C. It is imperative that the people and the government of B.C. make sure the interests of British Columbians are served before any outside pressure group, no matter how well-financed or politically connected. GARY SMITH, FORT LANGLEY
Should Nov. 11 actually be a holiday? Editor: The Times’ Nov. 12 edition carried a brilliant condemnation of the thousands of British Columbians who, rather than honouring our Canadian war dead, fled across the U.S. border in line-ups that often reached two hours in length. Columnist Jeff Nagel is to be admired for his patriotic condemnation of those who would rather save a dollar than participate in honour-
ing those who laid down their lives in numerous wars, which provided the freedom we now enjoy. Although a great many patriotic Canadians set aside Nov. 11 as a day of remembrance, an equal number simply view the day as one that can save them a few bucks and give them an extra day of leisure. I wonder if we should adopt the British system of remembrance?
They celebrate this day on the closest Sunday to Nov. 11, with no extra holiday given. If the majority of Canadians see no value in honouring our veterans who gave their lives, sight or limbs so that we can all be free, why give those who wish to fill the coffers of U.S. retailers an extra day to do so? MIKE HARVEY, LANGLEY
Remembrance Day gives reader some hope Editor: I attended the Remembrance Day parade and ceremony in downtown Langley. I am grateful to live in freedom. I am grateful to the ones who fought for that freedom. I am so very grateful that there is still hope for this country. Why is there still hope? Because at
those ceremonies, God was not ignored. We prayed and we sang. We sang to God who is “our help in ages past, our hope for years to come.” There are those who want to take God out of our national anthem completely. I’m sure those same people would object to the prayers
and the song at that ceremony. But if those people succeed, hope for our country will be lost. Lest we forget the ones who fought for us and our country. Lest we forget the one who made us and our world. LORNA HESSELS, SURREY

Identity theft becoming a big concern for Langley RCMP MO N I Q U E TA M M I N G A Ti m e s Re po r t e r
Langley RCMP auxiliary constables have been busy knocking on hundreds of doors of potential identity theft victims.
“Our auxiliary officers knocked on anywhere from 300 to 500 doors where the home owner may have been a victim of identity theft through mail theft,” said police spokesper-
son Cpl. Holly Marks. The residents were given an information package about identity theft and what to do about it. This measure was taken after Langley
RCMP had to put out a warning about the high levels of mailbox theft taking place. Police said in one day, 18 mailboxes were pried open and mail taken. “We have one unit
working almost around the clock on this,” said Marks last week. “We are also working with other jurisdictions like Surrey and Maple Ridge because they are being hammered

with the same problem right now.” Marks said police are making some progress in their investigation, but warn that people still need to pick up their mail as quickly as they can each day. Langley resident Linda-Ann Bowling, who had her vehicle broken into at Aldergrove Park last month, with all her identity taken, just got a call from a Langley RCMP constable informing her that community mailbox was broken into. He told her that he was in possession of a cheque made out to her that had been stolen from her mailbox. Police told her that the identity theft unit in Langley is sifting through hundreds of pieces of stolen mail.
On Oct. 25, police found an abandoned vehicle smashed into a power pole. It was filled with thousands of pieces of stolen mail in Brookswood. The stolen truck was found in the 3200 block of 200 Street. The driver fled the scene. Police found a large quantity of stolen mail that had been taken from all over Langley and parts of Surrey. At that time, police warned residents who are victims of mail theft to monitor their bank and credit card amounts looking for suspicious activity. Police said they had notified Canada Post about the increased mail theft. Canada Post has not returned calls from The Times.

‘Fence’ gets six-year sentence VIKKI H O P E S Bl ack Pre s s
A Surrey man who was caught with hundreds of stolen items in a motel room on Glover Road in 2012 has been sentenced to six years in jail. Prolific offender Dave Yaroslawsky, 31, was sentenced on Nov. 1 in B.C. Supreme Court in New Westminster. He was given 18 months’ credit for the time he has served since his arrest, leaving about another four and a half years of his sentence. Of the 58 charges he was facing, Yaroslawsky previously pleaded guilty to 32 counts related to items stolen mainly from homes in Langley, Abbotsford, Surrey, Hope and Chilliwack in early 2012. The offences for which he was convicted included 23 counts of possessing stolen property, six counts of possessing stolen ID, two weapons charges, and one count of using a stolen credit card.
Yaroslawsky did not plead guilty to any of the multiple break-and-enter charges he faced, saying he was a “fence” for the stolen property and was not involved in the break-ins. Yaroslawsky and his co-accused Ivan Logan Johnson of New Westminster were arrested in March 2012 at the Super 8 Motel on Glover Road in Langley, after police received a report about a suspicious man who had checked in to a room. When police arrived, they found a Chevy Blazer in the parking lot that matched the description of a vehicle used in a Chilliwack robbery. Yaroslawsky and Johnson then became involved in a twohour standoff with police before surrendering. Searches of the Chevy and the hotel room turned up numerous items that were found to be connected to several home break-ins. Police also searched a storage locker in Aldergrove for which
they had found a rental agreement in the Chevy. Among the items seized by police were televisions, cameras, computers, iPods and other electronics; car and house keys; three guns; jewelry; cash; prescription drugs; and various forms of ID, including passports, Care Cards, social insurance cards, and credit cards. Yaroslawsky was also caught on video surveillance at a gas station using a bank card just hours after it had been stolen and on which he had purchased more than $1,200 in goods. At Yaroslawky’s sentencing hearing in August, the court hear that he has a criminal history dating back to 1995 — when he was 13 — and has 46 prior convictions for crimes such as assault, break and enter, drug possession and trafficking. Johnson, 34, of New Westminster was sentenced in September to two years in prison after pleading guilty to several stolen-property offences.

ond minibike weaving in and out of traffic earlier that day. The operator of the minibike will be charged with failing to yield, operating without insurance and driving contrary to restrictions with no adult supervisor. His friend, a 16-year-old Langley boy, was charged with driving contrary to restrictions.

Here’s what Redford and Clark agreed on. Redford accepts B.C.’s five conditions, provincial royalties excluded, and Clark endorsed Redford’s proposed “Canadian Energy Strategy,” which B.C. rejected last year. A draft of the strategy released last summer contains no specifics on how it would facilitate a pipeline project from Alberta to B.C. It talks about developing Canada’s energy reserves and at the same time somehow reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and promises a final version next spring. Oh, and Quebec refuses to participate. Ottawa has sole jurisdiction over inter-provincial projects such as Northern Gateway and the proposal by Kinder Morgan Canada to expand the 60-yearold Trans Mountain pipeline to Burnaby and refineries in Washington. If there is to be some extra revenue for B.C. from oil traffic, it could theoretically take the form of a toll on pipelines. Redford pointed out the problem with that idea in her speech to an energy forum in Vancouver last week. She noted that 42 per cent of B.C. natural gas is piped through Alberta to markets. If B.C. can toll Alberta oil, the same could be done with B.C. gas. None of B.C.’s five conditions has yet been met. Legally, they don’t have to be, except for the one about accommodating aboriginal title.

Township fire dept. honoured Firefighters are committed to keeping people, property, and the environment safe. But they do more than just respond to emergencies. The extra effort they make has earned Langley Township firefighters a very special honour. The Bill Grindlay Department of the Year Award was presented to the Township fire department by Muscular Dystrophy Canada on Oct. 26. The award is presented to a fire department that has demonstrated overall excellence throughout the past year through fundraising, public awareness, and service. “We are thrilled with this award,” said Township fire chief Stephen Gamble. “This department is lucky to have so many men and women who are committed to their community. They are serious about giving back to others and we are proud to support Muscular Dystrophy Canada.” Muscular dystrophy is the name for a group of over 150 neuromuscular disorders that are characterized by the weakening and wasting away of the muscles that control body movement. For some people, the disorder is fatal. There is currently no cure. Each year, Township firefighters volunteer to help improve quality of life for those living with muscular dystrophy by conducting a boot drive at local businesses. Since 1994, they

Langley Community Music School’s annual faculty benefit concert takes place Sunday, Nov. 17 at 3 p.m. Proceeds from the concert will go toward the LCMS scholarship and bursary program. “We are very fortunate to have so many performing artists on faculty that are willing to generously donate their performances to benefit the students,” says LCMS principal Susan Magnusson. “The theme this year is Amici e Ricordi – Friends and Memories, and it’s extra special as it honours two recently retired faculty members — Caroline Janos and Carolyn Twiest.” The afternoon promises to be an eclectic mix of performances and performers, ranging from classical to jazz. Performers will include cellists Ian Hampton and Joel Stobbe, violinist Yuri Zaidenberg, pianists Jean Brown and Bernard Duerksen and many more. Tickets are available at the Langley Community Music School box office at 604-534-2848 for $20 adults, and $10 students. A family pass is also available for $60 (two parents and their children). The Rose Gellert Hall is located at 4899 207 St.

A new cellphone service provider could not convince Langley Township council to support a third tower near a local school. But Wind Mobile was able to get support for another tower in a commercial district. The company, which started in Toronto and Calgary in 2009, has grown to become Canada’s fourth largest cellphone service provider. Wind wants to build two towers in the Township. One, 50 metres high, would go up at 21765 Telegraph Trail beside two other cell phone towers owned by Telus and Rogers on agricultural land about 300 metres from the École des Voyageurs school in Walnut Grove. The other 40-metre tall tower would go up in a mostly commercial neighbourhood zoned for light industrial purposes at 9497 201 Street. The Oct. 21 public hearing on the proposed towers was dominated by opponents of the Telegraph Trail tower, many of them parents of children who attend École des Voyageurs who worry about the possible health impact of a third tower. One of the parents, Cara de St. Remy said there were troubling signs suggesting the impact of the two towers already installed near the school. “The treetops are dying,” St. Remy said. “I’m not sure if I want my son continuing in a school with two towers.” There were six speakers, all

against. Wind spokesman Robert Thompson then told the hearing the company tried to get space for its antenna on the existing Rogers and Telus towers near the school, but the rival firms wouldn’t let them locate high enough on the towers. It also tried to get space on an existing Telus tower in the light industrial neighbourhood and got the same refusal to let them co-locate high enough. Thompson said tests show the impact of radio waves from the cell towers will be minimal. “These are very small wattage,” Thompson said. “You’re probably getting stronger voltage from [the broadcast antenna on] your phone, putting it to your ear.”

It was not enough to convince most councillors. Kim Richter said the concerns about the Telegraph Trail cell tower raised by residents were valid “given the fact there [would be] three of them, they’re very close together and they’re too close to the school.” Councillor Bob Long agreed, saying “we’ve already got two towers there. A third one is just ludicrous.” Mayor Jack Froese said the towers were needed to meet growing demand for cell service in Langley. “We need to be able to use this new technology,” Froese said. “[If we block the towers] we will be doing the vast majority Continued Page 17

Foodbank efforts exceeded goal

For a first time fundraiser, Holeshot Motorsports is ecstatic with the results, so much so they plan to make their Service for the Needy food bank fundraiser an annual event. Given the staff at Holeshot felt they had plenty to be thankful for in the month of October, they decided to donate a meal to the Langley FoodBbank for every motorcycle or ATV that had service work done. “We were able to donate 369 meals which exceeded our goal of 300 meals,� said Alan Dekleer, sales and marketing representative for Holeshot. “We owe it to the efforts of the motorcycle community, who rallied behind our cause. Also, to the British Columbia Motorcycle Drill team who helped with a substantial donation.� A lot of non-perishable food was also donated and has gone to the food bank, he said.

extra $25 million – money Lake said will be found from the core operations of the health ministry, not raided from other health regions. The review comes after unionized nurses said understaffed emergency rooms are packed at hospitals across the region, in addition to the newly opened ER at Surrey Memorial. Fraser Health officials have also grappled with other high-profile incidents in recent weeks, including the case of a 90-year-old blind woman sent home after midnight via taxi from Delta Hospital. Lake said the review won’t examine such incidents and he denied claims the system is in chaos, calling hospital congestion nothing new. Fraser is the province’s fastest growing health region, with a large number of older residents who are expected to put great demand on health budgets in the

Health Minister Terry Lake has ordered a strategic and operational review of Fraser Health to help contain rising costs and deal with persistent hospital congestion. The health region is B.C.’s largest – it consumes $2.5 billion a year on behalf of 1.6 million residents – but it’s running over budget once again this year and Lake said it will require another infusion of extra money to meet patient demand. The Fraser region population has grown by 1.3 per cent a year over the past three years and the authority has received budget increases averaging six per cent a year – more than the 4.8 per

cent average for other health regions. Despite that, Fraser went one per cent over budget last year – the third year in a row it’s failed to stay within its allocation. “That doesn’t add up for us,” Lake said. “Fraser has not been able to manage the budget targets and we want to understand why.” He said continued budget hikes of five to seven per cent can’t continue either. “We’ve been very clear that we need to bend the cost curve down on increases in health because it’s simply not sustainable.” It’s too soon to say how far Fraser will overshoot this year’s budget but another one per cent overrun would take an

years ahead. Lake said the review doesn’t mean he wants service cuts but a wide search for solutions, including how spending is balanced between acute care in hospitals versus preventative primary care that can keep people healthier and avoid admissions. “The answer to every problem is not more money,” he said. One option to be examined is a possible boundary change for the health region. The Fraser and Vancouver Coastal health authorities already jointly procure many services and supplies in an effort to control costs, but Lake hinted more might come. “Does it make sense to have the boundary where it is?” Lake asked, noting there have been no changes since the health authorities were set up 12 years ago. Fraser Health’s board will submit a new three-year plan next spring to start in the 2014-15 fiscal year and will also submit a revised version of this year’s fiscal plan to address the expected overrun. Lake will appoint officials from his own ministry, the finance ministry and various health regions to the strategic review committee to work with Fraser Health in examining its

Health Minister Terry Lake has ordered a review of Fraser Health in response to rising service costs and persistent hospital congestion. current operations and identifying priority areas for action by next May. The new three-year plan is to identify service targets, operational and financial objectives and outline how Fraser Health’s programming and structure can help achieve them. Lake insisted he still has confidence in Fraser’s leadership. Fraser Health board chair David Mitchell said the board welcomes the chance to work with other health experts in a “collaborative and constructive” search for best practices.

NDP health critic Judy Darcy said Fraser Health has run with too few beds and staff for years, creating systemic problems and routinely overflowing ERs. “Because of the underfunding we’ve seen a whole series of cuts as well as this crisis in emergency rooms that’s getting worse,” she said. She questioned where the review team will look for savings. “What is it they’re going to cut?” Darcy asked. “We’re already seeing cuts that are pretty damaging, to mental health in particular.”

NEW HOME DEVELOPMENT
Three ďŹ nalists chosen for RenoMe! With FortisBC contest By Kerry Vital
Three British Columbia residents are getting the chance to win $10,000 towards a room makeover with natural gas after being chosen as a finalist in the RenoMe! with FortisBC contest. Over 150 entries were received from all over the province, but the final three were narrowed down to Gayle Curtis of Maple Ridge for her kitchen, Melissa Tolsma of Nanaimo for her outdoor space and Wendy Frose of Chilliwack for her great room. Designer Sarah Gallop of Sarah Gallop Design Inc. (SGDI) has taken on the outdoor space project, while SGDIâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Stephanie Malhas will design the great room, and Susanne Doise of Sensitive Design will handle the kitchen. In the next phase of the contest, the three finalists will receive renderings of their space from their designer, and then readers will vote on which one deserves the makeover the most. The room with the most votes will win $10,000 towards their renovation, while the second and third-place finalists will receive $2,000 each. Doise has consulted with Curtis, and has provided a rendering of how she thinks the kitchen could look once itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s renovated. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The kitchen is in bad shape,â&#x20AC;? says Doise. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I want to give her a better flow between the work spaces and the rest of the room.â&#x20AC;? Curtis calls her kitchen disgusting, gross and old, and says sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tired of burning everything she cooks due to a bad stove, so Doise will be incorporating natural gas in the kitchen with a Viking dual-fuel gas range. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a very simple way to use natural gas,â&#x20AC;? she says. Gas cooktops have long been popular with professional
chefs for their even cooking, precise temperature control and instant heat. Homeowners have increasingly been choosing them for their new and renovated kitchens alike. One of the concerns with the room is the lack of space. In order to combat this, Doise has suggested a movable butcher block island that can be pushed into the pantry wall to open up the space. She notes that currently, you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even open the refrigerator without bumping into the existing counter, and opening the dishwasher blocks you from doing anything else in the kitchen. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I want to bring in more light as well,â&#x20AC;? she says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It will look more friendly and inviting.â&#x20AC;? She also plans to incorporate an area for the homeowners to work and study. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I want to make it multifunctional,â&#x20AC;? she says. Doise has considered the ownerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tastes as well, and would incorporate her likes and dislikes into the final design. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I want to make her happy,â&#x20AC;? she says. Malhas is similarly excited about her great room project. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People live in their space for so long that they get used to it and have trouble visualizing changing it,â&#x20AC;? she says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have that emotional connection to it so I can see the potential in the room and suggest ways to fix it.â&#x20AC;? The current room is the main living area for Froseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s family, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in dire need of an update. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Any time I can get into wood panelling is good,â&#x20AC;? laughs Malhas. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It will definitely be gone.â&#x20AC;? One of the biggest issues with the room is the current wood-burning fireplace, which isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t centred in the room and makes for awkward

more energy-efficient and more convenient for homeowners. You no longer have to worry about power outages, since the fireplace doesn’t run on electricity, and there is no more waiting for your fireplace to heat up, since natural gas is available at the push of a button. There

She also plans to give the The space is currently only usable in the warmer months, so she’s hoping to be able to use it yearround if she wins the contest. Among the ideas Gallop has for the yard is a hot tub with an arbor above it. “That will give them a little bit of coverage and privacy,” she says, adding that the hot tub will be heated by natural gas. Gallop also plans to include an outdoor kitchen with natural gas barbecue and a natural gas firepit. A natural gas hot tub is a great idea for homeowners, with its consistent, fast heat and automatic safety shut-off controls for added peace of mind. Swimming pools can also be heated by natural gas. FortisBC notes that a natural gas barbecue can be extremely convenient for homeowners looking for fuel on demand, Sarah Gallop rendering as you’ll never have to deal Sarah Gallop of Sarah Gallop Design Inc. has envisioned an outdoor space with a natural gas hot tub, natural gas barbecue and with running out of propane natural gas firepit for Melissa Tolsma of Nanaimo. or charcoal. It also allows you to cook with different temperatures at the same time and control the heat more easily. It also burns cleaner than other fuel sources, making it good for the environment as well. FortisBC offers a energy calculator that will help you compare the cost of fuel sources and their energy efficiency, demonstrating that natural gas is the most affordable choice for homeowners. Find it at www. fortisbc.com/energycalculator. FortisBC natural gas customers are also continuing to benefit from some of the lowest prices in a decade, at under $4 per gigajoule. Firepits are becoming increasingly popular in outdoor spaces, especially for those who want to use their outdoor space Susanne Doise rendering for more than just the summer Susanne Doise of Sensitive Design is aiming to give Gayle Curtis more work space in her cramped kitchen, as well as including a months.

Gallop’s design features several levels to define the different spaces in the yard. “The space looked disconnected before,” she says. “This gives (Tolsma) different zones in the yard while still being connected.” It also makes the space transition a bit better between the casual entertaining area, the hot tub and the rest of the yard. “It’s a pretty straightforward renovation,” Gallop says. “The homeowner will be very happy with it.” To vote, visit your local Black Press paper’s website and click on the Contests link.

Browns Social House coming to Langley City SITE OF FORMER COZA RESTAURANT WILL BE SECOND LANGLEY LOCATION
MONIQUE TAMMINGA L an gley Tim es
Crews remove the decorative stonework from the exterior of the former Coza restaurant on 200 Street. The business will re-open as Browns Social House.
K R ISTYL CLAR K Tim es con tributor
A new dining destination will soon be popping up on the Langley landscape — one that offers a unique alfresco experience to patrons. On Oct. 21, Langley City Council gave Gustavson Wylie Architect Inc. the green light to develop a Browns Social House Restaurant on the corner of 200 Street and 62 Avenue. The existing building was previously occupied by Coza Restaurant and has since been divided into two new tenant spaces — the western portion of the building is proposed to be the new location of the restaurant, occupying 6,140 square feet. Based in Vancouver, Browns Restaurant Group was founded in 2003 by entrepreneur and innovator Scott Morrison. “This will be Mr. Scott Morrison’s corporate location and his training and flagship facility, which is what we’re very excited about — I know Browns is excited about coming into Langley with that presence,” said Ron Baron, an architect with GWA ,of the casual dining restaurant/pub crossover concept, which opened its first franchise in North Vancouver back in 2004. Gustavson Wylie Architect Inc. requested variances to the exterior side and rear back of the building that includes a 1,142 square-foot patio addition. “The existing patio is very introverted in that it had a large cedar hedge running
along 200 Street – this proposal is to open that up to make it more visually apparent and accessible to express the energy of the restaurant,” said Baron of the four-season room that shields patrons from the elements and traffic noise. Aside from the outdoor space, the variance also permits for a 490 square foot garbage/recycling addition as well as an alteration to the sidewalks to make the restaurant “more accessible” to patrons. Although the intention is for all vehicular and pedestrian access to remain as exists, Baron noted a new pedestrian access point is proposed off 200 Street as an additional entry to the proposed Browns Social House. A new wheelchair letdown is also being provided from the parking lot at the building frontage closer to the existing handicap parking stall. In keeping with the Browns Social House branding, the new building will also have updated exterior finishes such as: architectural decorative block, new stone cladding, new patio glazing, new storefront windows, new sliding window system, decorative canopy and ornate lighting fixtures. The new building will be Langley’s second location – a Browns Social House is also situated in Walnut Grove at 20159 88 Ave. For more information about Browns Social House, visit www.brownsrestaurantgroup.com.

langley events centre Coming Events
Langley Township is full of wildlife habitat and people share the area with animals including bears, cougars, and coyotes. Residents throughout Langley need not be continually on alert, but action can be taken to deter wild animals if they are spotted in your area. Parents should teach children what to do if they encounter these animals, especially if they play by themselves in areas that wildlife frequent or have been seen in the past. To help people coexist with creatures that are simply trying to survive but can be dangerous if provoked, the following information is offered:
Bears: During the winter months, bears are in hibernation and do not interact with humans for three or four months.
Cougars: can have kittens throughout the year and family groups can be seen at any time. Cougars survive on natural food sources found in the wild, primarily deer. Cougar attacks on humans are highly unlikely. However, if you encounter a cougar, do not run. Pick children up immediately and talk to the cougar in a confident voice. Act big by waving sticks and branches, and back away slowly while still facing the cougar. If it attacks, fight back.
Coyotes: have the largest population of potentially dangerous wildlife in the area and can be seen year round, even in residential areas. Family groups have been regularly seen around Langley. Coyotes are bold and easily lose their natural fear of people. Never feed a coyote. If you encounter a coyote, scare it off by making loud noise or throwing something at it to make it afraid. Never ignore a coyote. If it continues to approach, do not run. Maintain eye contact, pick up small pets or children, and slowly move to an area of increased activity.

Keep pet food inside. Garbage is the biggest attraction for bears so keep it secure and inaccessible to wildlife. Do not leave garbage cans
out overnight: keep them in the house, a locked garage, or secured outbuilding that cannot be broken into by large, smart bears. Put them out only on the morning of collection. If you are worried about odour, keep garbage in the freezer until collection day. Feel free to use bird feeders in the winter months. Birds need nutrition from seeds during this time of year, and the bird food will not attract bears, as they are away hibernating.
In Agricultural Areas: Protect your investment by keeping fences secure and free of damage that predators can use for access. Coyotes burrow, so ensure surrounding netting goes deep into the ground. Be vigilant with livestock and keep them secure. Farm animals are usually killed at night, so bring them inside in the evening. It is an offence to attract wildlife into a residential neighbourhood. Those who do not take steps to deter bears and other wild creatures can face a fine of up to $575.

Tackling Langley’s litter is a big challenge COUNCIL R ES PO NDS TO RESIDENT’S COMPLAINT W ITH STRATEGY REVIEW D AN F ERGUSO N Ti me s Re po r t e r
A Langley resident’s frustration with illegal dumping has led to a wide-ranging review of Township littering policies. The $50,000 review was approved by council on Oct. 21 based on a report by Township infrastructure assets and solid waste manager Harb Chohan, who said a comprehensive strategy is needed to combat the growing problem of illicit dumping and littering in Langley. The report was ordered after Lynette Walker appeared before a February meeting to ask council to create a consistent strategy for removing garbage from Township roadsides and ditches. Walker said the southeast section of the Township, where she lives, has become a dumping ground. “It is anything but beautiful,” Walker said. The Chohan report shows reported incidents of litter and illegal dumping in Langley Township have risen 14 per cent since last year, with over 1,000 expected this year. Litter is defined in the report as small unwanted items “that are not disposed of in an appropriate manner” while illegal dumping consists of large items like mattresses, building materials and gar-
bage bags. In 2012, cleaning up the various messes cost the Township $400,000.
The report predicts cleanup costs will rise because more people are expected to use ditches and vacant ru-
ral lots to avoid paying higher landfill fees and get around tighter restrictions on the types of trash a dump will
take. The current approach, one that focuses on fines to deter dumping, was criticized in the report
as “reactive, dealing with the litter once it is already there.” The report called for a prevention strategy that includes public
education, especially for young people. “Fostering a sense of community pride is esContinued Page 40

New illegal dumping strategy will take 12 months From Page 39
sential to litter prevention,” Chohan wrote. “If citizens feel a sense of obligation to keep their community clean, they are more
likely to respond positively to anti-littering messages and volunteer clean-up opportunities.” The report noted that once garbage is on the ground, studies show
it tends to attract more litter. As proposed, the “Litter and Illegal Dumping Management Strategy” would have “three pillars”: 1. Education of the
public to discourage dumping. 2. Infrastructure that includes bins, signage and maintenance to encourage proper disposal. 3. Enforcement that
would include “active monitoring and patrolling by staff.” It’s expected the strategy will take about 12 months to develop. The vote approv-
ing the initiative was unanimous (councillor Bev Dornan was absent). “I think this is exactly what’s needed,” councillor Charlie Fox said. Councillor Bob Long said he would like to see quicker litter pickups like he’s observed south of the border. “In the States, everything is so clean,” Long said. “And we just don’t seem to have that.” Councillor David Davis said it was a shame
a strategy is needed. “It’s unfortunate that we have to get after people for dumping things,” Davis said. Walker was pleased by what she termed the “genuine response” by the Township to her presentation. “I’m satisfied that it was taken seriously” Walker told the Times. “They’re going to try to do something about it.” Walker said she will wait and see how it all plays out before she does any celebrating.

The expansion meant it needed a bigger facility, so the business moved into a new 10,000 square facility at 9522 200 St. which is at the corner of 96 Avenue and 200 Street. They actually made the move back in the spring, but held their official grand opening on Oct. 30 with close to 170 people turning out for the celebration. Driving Force has been in the area since 2007 and branch manager Moe Wetzel said this is exactly where they want to be. “We chose the Langley area — primarily Walnut Grove — because we see this area continuing to grow over the next several years,” he said. “We wanted to be in North Langley, that was our focus.” The previous location was just next door as Driving Force shared space with Hino Central — another company it owns — which is a medium duty truck dealership. “Our business grew where we grew our rental fleet,” Wetzel said. “Now we are able to offer vehicle sales and rentals.” In addition to the new office, the staff has increased from three employees to 20, he said. Driving Force has been in operation since 1978 and now has 20 locations across Western Canada. Driving Force founder and president Jeff Polovick was at the grand opening celebration. “We were confident that by becoming the onestop shop for rentals, sales or leasing for all makes and models, and by giving the best possible service, we would continue to grow and improve,” he said. “That’s what we have been doing for the last 35 years.” ••• Driving Force also presented a cheque for $1,500 to the Langley Food Bank at their grand opening.

Members of the TWU Spartans women’s soccer team hoist the Gladys Bean trophy following their gold medal 1-0 win over the Montreal Carabins at the University of Toronto’s Varsity Centre Saturday night. The win marks the fifth time the Spartans have won the title.
TWU women reign supreme . . . again The Trinity Western Spartans notched a record-tying fifth national title with a 1-0 victory over the Montreal Carabins in the gold-medal final of the 27th CIS women’s soccer championship, Sunday evening at the University of Toronto’s Varsity Centre. It marks the fifth time in program history, all in the past decade, that the Spartans have hoisted the Gladys Bean Trophy, and the second time they have defeated the Carabins at Varsity Centre for the title. The two teams met in the championship finale the last time U of T hosted in 2009, when Trinity Western edged the Carabins 1-0 (4-2 PK) for the crown. “Credit to Montreal, they defended extremely well,” said Graham Roxburgh, in his 15th season as the Spartans head coach.
“They created a lot of just fantastic.” problems for us that “We think Vaneswe were struggling to sa is one of the best deal with.

The CIS all-Canadian striker scored two goals in leading the Spartans to a 3-0 win over the OUA champion Laurier Golden Hawks in Thursday’s quarter-final match and shares the tournament lead in scoring with Laval’s Léa Chastenay-Joseph. Trinity Western maintains a perfect 5-0 standing in national final appearances and ties UBC’s record of five CIS titles with the victory. Overall, the Canada West has claimed 15, which accounts for over half, while the AUS and OUA have earned the title five and seven times, respectively, in the 27-year history of the CIS women’s soccer championship. In search of the RSEQ’s first women’s soccer national title, Montreal earns their third silver medal in as many CIS gold-medal
match appearances, all in the last five seasons. The Quebec champions end their season with an outstanding 15-2-2 record. The Spartans landed a pair of players on the Canadian Interuniversity Sport all-star teams.
ALL-STARS Vanessa Kovacs was named a first team all-star while Krista Gommeringer was selected a second team all-star. The pair were honoured at the CIS all-Canadian banquet on Nov. 6 in Toronto. In 2012, Gommeringer was the Canada West rookie of the year and both a CIS and Canada West first team all-star. Kovacs, a third-year midfielder, was also a CIS tournament allstar last season as the Spartans won the national championship.

Two Rams earn awards
SECOND YEAR PLAYERS ARE NAMED Two members of the Langley Rams have earned all-Canadian awards. Anthony Daley, who plays on the offensive line, and Evan Foster, who is on the defensive line, were both named all-stars by the Canadian Junior Football League. Each was recognized for a second straight year. Daley, a 20-year-old from Winnipeg, has spent time all season practising with the CFL’s B.C. Lions as one of their territorial players. He still has two years of junior eligibility remaining.
Foster, a 22-year-old from Chilliwack, was in his final season of junior football. And the defensive tackle made it a season to remember, setting a new CJFL record with 16 quarterback sacks. The previous Canadian record was 15 while the B.C. Football Conference record was 12.5. Foster also had 15 tackles, two fumble recoveries, one interception and one touchdown. And he was named the BCFC defensive player of the year and is a nominee for the CJFL defensive player of the year.

Question
Cadillac in the rear-view mirror of the European premium brands 2014 Cadillac CTS One auto trend that shows little sign of waning is the move towards more luxury or premium cars by manufacturers and consumers alike. As baby boomers age, they have earned the nicer things in life, and the offspring of baby boomers are getting used to the finer things in life, so more automakers are moving upscale. The Europeans do luxury and performance better than most and the Japanese luxury brands have been putting in their time to becoming a real force. But long before the Japanese, there have always been the American luxury brands, with many firsts in features and technology. Established in 1902, Cadillac is one of the oldest, along with Mercedes-Benz, and continues to be General Motors’ flagship in terms of refinement and technology. Looks The smaller Cadillac ATS was released a year ago and went on to win the North American Car of the Year award. General Motors has taken that platform and elongated it to produce the lightest mid-sized car in its class. It’s a full 173kg lighter than the benchmark BMW 5-Series it competes against, and 34kg lighter than the outgoing car. A lighter car, made of

Verdict The price of the CTS ranges from about $51,000 for the base model to $66,000 for the top premium trim level. The Vsport, high performance model is priced at almost $75,000. The Cadillac CTS is not an inexpensive car, but it offers many features like standard heated and vented leather seats, Bose stereo and push button start even on the base model. Compared to some of the other mid-sized luxury sedans it is less expensive, plus it is a worthy car for any driving enthusiast.

Taking a specialized course, whether it’s a track day or a race school isn’t just for wannabe racers. It’s for everyone. And we can all learn if we have an open mind. We read to keep our mind sharp. We walk/run/ work out to keep our bodies active. We sleep to keep our bodies functioning. Why should driving be any different? Why shouldn’t we actively engage in making ourselves better drivers? Every time you get behind the wheel of a vehicle, there’s a possibility you can change your life or the lives of others. We might not think too much about it, but operating a vehicle is a huge responsibility. Poor driving habits, not shoulder checking, not using your signals, driving in the left lane when you’re not passing are minor details in the grand scheme of things, but have a large impact. It’s never too late to refresh the basics and then pick up a few new good habits. For example, if you look at any of the top athletes in their sport, they’re training most of the time. They’re trying to perfect their craft,
even when they’re at the top of it. I doubt Sebastian Vettel slums around in his down time, even after winning his fourth consecutive Formula1 world championship. Sure, he gets a break, but he’s constantly training to be faster and stronger. In another interview, I chatted with Izod Indy racecar driver Simona de Silvestro. She tells me that there’s really no such thing as an “off-season.” She says she trains all year long. In fact, she trains harder when she’s not always behind the wheel of a car to prepare for the upcoming races. If the pros do it, we should to. Some of the most fun I’ve had behind the wheel of a car has been at a driving school. Whether it was the three-day racing school at the Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca with the Skip Barber program, or a track day at the Mission Raceway with Morrisport Advanced Driving, or even a track program close to you, it’s a win-win. If we’re all safer drivers then the chances of accidents are minimized and we can keep our vehicles dent-free longer. And avoid going through insurance claims. The few hundred dollars it takes to enrol is of infinite worth in the long run. Alexandra.straub@drivewaybc.ca Twitter.com/cargirlsgarage

The E550 (coupe or sedan) has a 5.5 litre V8 that can generate 382 hp and 391 lb-ft of torque. The sedan also comes in a high-performance AMG 63 edition with a 6.2-litre V8 that makes 518 horsepower and 465 lb.-ft. of torque. All three engines are mated to a 7-speed automatic transmission and drive goes to the rear wheels of the Coupe and to all four wheels of the Sedan. The reardrive 3.5L V6 gets best fuel economy at 11.9 L/100/ km in the city and 7.6 L/100/km on the highway. The 6.2L V8 is the gas guzzler, with a city/highway rating of 16.5/10.2 L/100/km. All three engines also prefer premium fuel. A standard Dynamic Handling package also allows the driver choose a sporty-set-up at the touch of a button. This changes the continuously variable damping, the speed-sensitive power steering (with variable centering), ESP/ASR (traction control), accelerator response, and speed of automatic gear changes. New active safety innovations included Attention Assist, which is a driver drowsiness monitor, Pre-Safe, which is preventative occupant protection system, 2012 ACURA Adaptive High Beam Assist, which automatically dims headlight high beams, and an automatic emergency RDX AWD braking system called Distronic Plus.

IN MEMORIAM
In Remembrance of
BLAIR SCOTT BORLAND Who passed away at age 37 on November 15th 2012 Do not stand at my grave and sigh I’m not there, I did not die. I am the blossoms on the apple trees I am the roar of the raging seas I am the hawk shrieking in flight I am the twinkling stars at night, I am the sparkle on virgin snow I am the gentle winds that blow I am the loons haunting call, I am the oak tree standing tall By quiet waters my God is near I am the swift up-springing deer, Do not stand at my grave and mourn I’m not there, I’ve been reborn.
Always in our hearts, love Mom, Pops, Gina & Shae
