Hoopster hunts for Arctic-bound hockey gear By Jennifer Lang With the dinner time temperature at -27 C and falling on a mid-January night, and a blizzard in the forecast, the village of Arviat, Nunavut, isn’t exactly the first place that springs to mind when you think of basketball or soccer. But with all that snow and ice, it would seem like a natural fit for Canada’s national game — hockey. When Cloverdale sports ambassador Rick Gill returns to two villages in Nunavut next month, he hopes to bring along some spare hockey equipment South Fraser’s ONLY

In Africa, the program trains local coaches, builds courts, and runs practices and tournaments for children in communities hit by poverty, crime and HIV-AIDS. Gill and Hoops 4 Hope and Soccer 4 Hope program founder, New Yorker Mark Crandall, return first to Arviat on Feb. 15. Recently, a hockey coach in one of the two communities reached out to Gill, asking if he can collect some donated hockey equipment and bring it with

so kids there can play. Located high above the Arctic Circle, the communities of Arviat and Baker Lake are worlds away from the well-equipped gyms, sports fields and hockey rinks of Surrey. “We’re trying to outfit about 20 kids right now,” said Gill, the Canadian director of Hoops 4 Hope, a charity that uses basketball and other sports to help impoverished youth in South Africa — where he once played pro basketball — and Inuit communities in Canada’s Far North.

with him when he returns next month. There are no roads north from the mega malls and department stores of Winnipeg to Arviat, perched on the icy edge of Hudson’s Bay, or Baker Lake, which is a remote community further inland. Supplies and visitors like Gill must be flown in, usually in a prop plane from Winnipeg. Gill, who grew up in North Delta, has been to Nunavut twice each year for the past two years with Hoops 4 Hope and Hoops4Soccer, running twoweek camps for kids. “The kids there really enjoy
sport,” says Gill, “and they’re enthusiastic. They’re like kids anywhere in the world; they just want to play.” This year, the charity is setting up sustainable community programs that will continue on, and hopefully expand to other towns. “Initially we were just going up to introduce the program and do two-week camps to see if people liked it,” he said, explaining the idea’s grown from there. Last January, he decided he wanted to create a sustainable program “so the program keeps running after we leave.” Gill organized a Vancouverarea drive for sports equipment several years ago to help youth in
South Africa. If you can help track down gently-used hockey equipment for kids aged five to 14, or help with shipping expenses and storage until Feb. 15, please contact Gill by email at TheGills711@hotmail.com. All kinds of equipment is needed, including skates, helmets, neck guards, gloves, and padding. “I’m just going to take a couple of hockey bags [filled with donations] along,” he said, adding Excellent Ice in Surrey and Langley’s Sports Replay are also accepting donations but people should contact him first before dropping off equipment at those stores.

Pubs are a good a place as any to teach kids how to behave To the editor; Re: “A minor issue with new pub rules,” Jan. 9 Brenda Anderson’s opinion piece on children not belonging in the pubs she likes to go to is the very unwelcoming, unloving, anti-life sentiment that is discouraging our world from being open to the wonderful gift of children and contributing Canada’s all-time-low fertility rate of 1.5 children per woman (we need 2.1 if we’re going to replace ourselves). Do we really want to join Japan, Italy, China, Spain, Germany and dozens of other countries contending with fertility rates well below replacement levels? Yes, kids are disruptive and distracting, but you were once one too, and the only way for any of us to learn how to behave like a grownup is to be offered opportunities to practise it, not to be relegated to Chuck E. Cheese and Go Bananas, like she’s suggesting. Pubs are just as good a place as any restaurant for families to practise good public behaviours. If she knew anything about children and families, she’d understand that children belong near the protective and teaching arms of their parents and should be welcome in all areas of society, not left at home with “a babysitter”. I’d far prefer to live in a child-loving culture who welcomes even their youngest members at all their parties, restaurants, and special events (i.e. South America, the Philippines), not a barren one that views children as a necessary inconvenience.
To the editor
Julie Lornie Langley
Too devoted To the editor; Too large a portion of Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s supporters unfortunately are his fellow theological devotees. I find it “unfortunate,” because that portion enables anti-science policies to be passed and enforced by his theologically-inclined MPs, whose fundamental Scriptural beliefs are essentially a threat to healthy, lifesustaining Canadian eco-systems. If Harper’s Biblical convictions are any indication, healthy and pristine Earthly eco-systems apparently are of no actual science based concern. For,
according to the Book of Revelation, Earth’s surface is to eventually, perhaps even imminently, be laid complete waste for a considerable period of time – if not permanently. It might all be true in the end, whenever that would be in the natural course of our planet and all of its life, but that’s certainly no excuse to insanely justify screwing the environment in advance. Mentality in translation, perchance: Why the hell worry about an unhealthy state of the planet’s environment – especially when there are so many jobs to be had? Frank G. Sterle, Jr. White Rock
The Other Door
I suppose some things hold true no matter what generation you’re in. My grandmother told my mother when she was young, that when a door closes another will be there to open, if you look for it. My mom lived her life that way and I guess it rubbed off on me a little. There seems to be a lot of gloom in the news today and December brings out the stress of forced happiness everywhere, and then January is the lonely month. It comes in so fast and there doesn’t seem to be anyone there to share joy with. Enough of this feeling sorry for myself, I went for a walk and ran into someone who was doing the same thing, trying to get rid of the January blues. We smiled at one another and I started feeling better so I smiled at a few more people and before I knew it that other door had opened. Opening that door is the beginning, you just have to be somewhere else and smile and that door will open for you, too. Keep on smiling and everyone wants to know what you’re up to and they open a few doors of their own. The old saying is true: “Laugh and the world laughs with you, cry and you cry alone.” Susie Francis

Cross-border shoppers face test if U.S. farm subsidies end By Jeff Nagel The days of cheap milk and cheese luring cross-border shoppers into Washington state may soon end if the U.S. government ends its long-standing practice of deeply subsidizing American farms. The U.S. Senate has so far blocked the renewal of subsidies, although wrangling continues toward a deal that would continue them at a reduced level. B.C. Dairy Association CEO Dave Eto said American farm subsidies are so “astounding” the price of milk south of the border would more than double if they were eliminated altogether. Eto isn’t expecting a complete end to subsidies, but thinks the debt-laden U.S. government will insist they be ratcheted down over time, pulling perhaps $4 billion out of the U.S. dairy industry over the next decade. “I definitely think the prices will go up,” he said.
A n y drop in the Canadian dollar against the U.S. greenb a c k would also make U.S. dairy products less attractive to crossborder shoppers, and rising international demand may also help push up U.S. milk prices. Most U.S. residents don’t enjoy the cheap prices B.C. residents get when they nip across the border to Blaine or Bellingham. Eto said aggressive pricing by retailers

close to the border to pull in Canadian shoppers means U.S. milk is sold below cost in those areas. He said an October price survey showed average supermarket prices of a gallon of milk was $4.05 in San Francisco and $4.89 in Portland, but dropped to $2.79 in Seattle and $2.50 in Bellingham. “For every dollar we spend in our communities, it has a five times rebound effect,” he said.
“We don’t give that enough credence.” Other observers doubt even more expensive U.S. milk will do much to dent the flow of shoppers heading south. “Milk is just a small sliver of the savings waiting down south,” said Jordan Bateman of the Canadian Taxpayers Federation. “Cheaper gas, consumer goods and flights make it highly unlikely that this will curb cross-border shopping.” Other free-market advocates say Ottawa should rip up the current supply management system in Canada and let milk prices float rather than be propped up. That would mean more price volatility but a better deal for consumers who now pay more than necessary, said Mark Milke, a senior fellow at the Fraser Institute. He said New Zealand’s system is a much better model and has resulted in a huge export-oriented dairy industry that now accounts for 40 per cent of world trade in dairy products.

in brief
Beware of prank callers The RCMP is warning Lower Mainlanders of a male prank caller phoning into businesses claiming to be with the police or fire de-
partment. The purpose of him calling is to “test” the fire suppression system. When the caller is on the line, he threatens to impose a fine should the business not conduct the test. In testing the system, he requests the business to pull the fire alarm, which in turn sets off the sprinkler system causing thousands of dollars in damages. Police are urging people not to respond to anyone over the phone should they ask an individual to conduct this test. The RCMP is asking anyone to call the appropriate emergency number anytime they are witness to suspicious behaviour.
Organizers are hoping movie lovers will be in the mood to exceed those numbers this year. Voting for the love-themed movies is underway at Clova’s Facebook page, which can be found by typing Clova Cinema into the Facebook search field.

Artists are invited to participate in the Silver Screen Classics competition and Exhibition, which begins in February. Categories include paintings on paper, drawing, mixed media and printmaking, photography and digital art. Prizes are $200, $150, $100 and $50. The entry fee is $10 per piece, with a maximum of three per artist. Works must be unframed, and precisely 18 by 24 inches. The deadline for entries is Jan. 31. More information and entry forms are available at 604-594-2700, info@artscouncilofsurrey.ca or http://bit.ly/1m3kWyq.

By Ursula Maxwell-Lewis The invitation read: “Book release party event for Everything’s Coming Up Clover! by Dora Preston.” Vancouver writer Ruth Kozak was listed as the event host at Renaissance Books Store in New Westminster. Being a sucker for used-book stores, emerging authors, British humour, and sunny Sunday afternoon jaunts, I set off in search of an interview. Upon arrival there were two surprises. First: Dora Preston wasn’t coming. She passed away two years ago. Second: Dora’s gone, but she sure isn’t forgotten. Thanks to her daughter, Glenys Preston Blackburn, and Ann Westlake, a Ladner editor, Dora’s dream of Ursula Maxwell-Lewis publishing her book, Everything’s Coming Up Clover! is now a reality. The storyline, her dedicated fans told me, reminded them of Dora in disguise. Clover Rayton, a feisty senior with a wicked sense of humour, decides to retaliate when her four children have her “incarcerated in an old folks home” Her tell-all diary will, she vows, pay them back when the world reads it. She’ll go, she decides, but not quietly. Clover, who sounds remarkably like Dora, according to those who knew her, documented one
The heart of Clayton Everything your family needs ... and more
hilarious escapade after another. Honeystone Mansion was clearly in for a rude awakening when dauntless Dora marched over their Vancouver doorstep. “I won’t make it easy for them,” she vowed. And she didn’t. Thanks to Dora Preston’s irrepressible Yorkshire wit, wisdom, and writing talent, Clover could easily star in a British sitcom, or onstage with the Vancouver Arts Club. In between readings and visitors singing Dora’s praises to me, Kozak tells me she first met Dora in 1989 “When I stepped into the washroom a woman came in singing in a most lovely voice,” she recalls. “I wondered who this happy person was. When I went into the West End Writer’s meeting, there she was. It was Dora!” For ten years Dora, a popular care aide and advocate for seniors, crafted cantankerous Clover’s escapades based on observations, experiences and an irrepressible sense of fun. Eventually, when diagnosed with terminal cancer, Dora confessed to her daughter that she regretted that her manuscript remained unpublished. Assisted by Writer’s Cramp Editing Consultants, Glynis proudly made it happen. In January, Ann Westlake selected it as winner of the Fourth Annual Editor’s Pick Writing Contest Award. In Them Days, a new book written by Ontario senior Isobel Warren, also arrived this month. For those who recall tales of Canadian farm life, I’d recommend it.

A veteran journalist, creative writing teacher, and co-founder of the Travel Media Association of Canada, Isobel injured her leg last summer. The subsequent forced-inactivity generated time to allow her to craft the novel. Set in a post-First World War rural community, Isobel chose Julianna Chandler, a city doctor’s daughter, as the linchpin for her well-crafted tale of the era’s mindsets, morals and misunderstandings. Dramatic and insightful, the story highlights what - at the time - were provocative views on women’s roles, rights, medicine and politics. The reader is expertly lured into the lives of this diverse community. Pathos, drama, historical detail, and the occasional hint of humour, brings these characters alive. URSULA MAXWELL-LEWIS Chances are, some will be familiar from your Host writer Ruth Kozak reads excerpts from Everything’s Coming Up Clover! own family sagas.

The first couple of months of the year is the time to execute our new year resolutions, to refresh our bodies and elevate our vitality, yet one of the most common complaints that we hear from our clients DR. HENRY CHENG at this time of the year is “low energy levels�. Of course, many of them have medical reasons for this. Many more, however, simply cannot garner enough energy to accomplish their daily chores. We have a few tips to rectify this. EXERCISE: One needs to make time for regular exercise. Exercise stimulates the mitochondria of your body’s cells to burn fuel to generate energy. Exercise also augments the production of serotonin and endorphin for mood and alertness. Some of our clients say, “I’m too tired to do any exercise.� Well, there are ways to help break the vicious cycle. Taking “Arnicare Sport� or our own “Sport Tablets� can make unaccustomed exercise less painful, increase endurance, and speed recovery. “Endura� is great during exercise as well as in recovery, while just a few sips of “Lucozade� can provide instant energy. EAT WISELY: Never eat more than what you need. Large meals induce outpouring of insulin and reactive hypoglycemia. Most should eat less meat and more veggies. Foods from plant sources not only have less harmful fats, but also have more fibre and minerals. You do need a bit of meat, though, since certain vitamins (eg. Vit.B-12) are only
available from animal sources. Moderation is key. Animal fats should be avoided all together. MANAGE STRESS: Share your troubles and achievements with people around you. Forgive people who have done you wrong. Accept your own shortcomings and those of people around you. Connect more with people who make you happy and excited. Make time for recreation. Pick-up a hobby, something that will segregate your mind from your daily troubles. Do not take on responsibilities that you cannot manage. Learn when and what to give up. “Sleep Tonight� and �Nervoheel� can be of great benefit in reducing stress and anxiety. MANAGE YOUR TIME: Prioritize and organize your chores. Give up those that are less important, keeping in mind that you cannot win them all. Delegate as much as possible; share duties with your family and friends. Avoid putting off assignments or other forms of procrastination. Do not allow interruptions to occur. Sometimes, multitasking will actually slow you down; do things one at a time. Do not let TV, the internet, or social media consume your life; set time for it and stick to it. “Bach Flower Remedies� and other homeopathics could help with focus and obsessiveness. AVOID TOXINS: Do not smoke. We feel so strongly about this that we have not sold cigarettes at Cloverdale Pharmasave since 1990, and are an active participant in the BC Government’s subsidized smoking cessation program. Do not have more than 2 alcoholic drinks a day. Cut down on caffeine (coffee, tea, colas). Note that even green tea contains caffeine. Chamomile, ginger, cranberry teas
are better choices. If you have been relying on caffeine or other stimulant drugs for energy, you should replace them with natural substitutes (see #6 below). SUPPLEMENT YOUR DIET: If you consistently eat a healthy and balanced diet, you do not need a multi-vitamin supplement. Caffeine or ephedrine can be replaced with natural stimulants like Alfalfa Tonic and Ginseng Royal Jelly.

domestication has changed cats relatively little. Like their wild relatives, they have evolved as predators to stalk, chase, pounce on and bite their prey. Playing “keep-away” games with
your cat provides rewarding outlets for this instinctual hunting behaviour. Move a wand toy through the air to mimic flying prey swooping down or along the floor to simulate ground
While they may not need long walks in the park, cats require interaction and stimulation – just like dogs do – to stay mentally and physically healthy. The indoor environment can be a monotonous one. Cats who are bored or frustrated may display stress-related behaviours such as redirected aggression or over-grooming. The indoor lifestyle can be sedentary as well; inactive cats may be at risk of obesity, diabetes, arthritis and South Fraser’s ONLY

Similarly, tossing around a small toy such as a ball or fake mouse can trigger her predatory instincts. For additional stimulation, you can involve food in daily playtime too. Fooddispensing toys, such as balls that drop kibble as they roll, are effective in instigating play. Some even allow you to modify

Ryan said all RCMP officers are going to have bad days. “It’s just the law of averages. But does that mean the whole system is broken? No.” One of the goals of writing his book was to inform those thinking about a career in policing about the realities of the profession and to help families understand what their loved ones deal with. “It’s a great career if you go into it with the right attitude,” Ryan said. “You need the physical capabilities of a young person with the wisdom of a senior.” For more information about Souls Behind the Badge visit www.wayneryanbook.ca

By Evan Seal At a well-kept home on a quiet tree-lined street in Newton, Wayne Ryan remembers seeing the bunches of balloons hanging inside the house, which was decorated with various ribbons and signs celebrating the birthday of a sixyear-old girl. There was an upright vacuum cleaner in the kitchen and the body of a young mother was laying on the floor. As he made his way to the second floor of the Wayne Ryan house, Ryan followed a small trail of blood that ended at a closed bedroom door. Opening the door, he remembers seeing a young girl wearing a beautiful party dress lying face up in the middle of her room. She had been stabbed multiple times – so hard the knife handle had left an imprint in her chest. The images from that day are indelibly imprinted in Ryan’s mind, making him unable to attend a birthday party to this day without reliving the visions. Ryan is a 19-year veteran of the Surrey RCMP and yet the memories from that day have never faded. Following the arrest of the murderer – a family friend of the victims’ – Ryan’s job was to pick him up in Coquitlam and bring him to Surrey for a full interview. “I had many years as a hostage negotiator and interviewer, but I lost it that day. I had to use every ounce of energy to leave the interview room” after the suspect showed no remorse, Ryan said. “I could have probably executed him and gone for dinner that night feeling no remorse myself. That was a failure on my part. That really affected me. You learn you’re human.” After having a small article published in the RCMP Veterans’ Association newsletter about life as a police officer, Ryan decided he wanted to tell some of the real life stories about working in law enforcement and the emotional toll it often takes on members and their families. Souls Behind the Badge is an emotional and often raw account of life wearing the uniform of Canada’s national police force. “I wanted to put a human face to the uniform,” Ryan said, “to write about the human aspect of policing and the effect some of the things have on officers.” Police officers are expected to guard their feelings on the job, and many find the transition between work and home life quite difficult. Referring to actual cases, Ryan guides the reader through many of his own experiences as well as those of his colleagues. “In the book I try to talk about the emotional, professional and personal challenges of policing and I try to use real-life police stories to support that,” he said. Dispelling the Hollywood view of policing was challenging. “The public has this perception of not only what they think the police are like, but what they want them to be,” said Ryan, adding the scrutiny can be extreme. “I always tell people, ‘everything you say and do as a police officer, expect it to be on the six o’clock news’.” Keeping the peace has always been a priority for Ryan, “but some laws just have to be (enforced),” he said. Maintaining an even keel is paramount. In one shift an officer may find himself having to inform the parents of a 17-year-old girl that their daughter has just been killed by a drunk driver, and then a few hours later, he is arresting an impaired driver at the roadside. Emotions can’t take over, Ryan said. “I’ll often look back at some of my own failures and say I didn’t handle that the best way.”
