More land sales planned to fund pool ALDERGROVE REC. CENTRE PROJECT MAY BE DELAYED IF SURPLUS SITES FAIL TO SELL DA N F ERGUSO N Tim e s Re po r t e r

The Township of Langley is planning to sell more municipal land to help fund a new community centre, pool and ice arena in Aldergrove. If sales go as planned, The Times has been

told that construction on the five-acre site of the former Aldergrove Elementary School on Fraser Highway could begin as soon as 2015. But if they don’t, the start will have to be pushed back at least another year. A report being prepared by Township

staff for council has identified a number of sites that could be sold to cover the cost of the new facility. The location of the sites will not be made public until the report has been presented to council, but it’s hoped they will not generate the same kind of controversy that

occurred when the Township attempted to sell off nearly 50 acres of Township-owned land in 2012 to fund the Aldergrove facility. That drew immediate opposition and produced drawn-out and often-heated debates in council chambers. Continued Page 4

An air ambulance landed at Parkside Elementary on Tuesday afternoon after a 19-year-old man was stabbed in the back. The incident happened at around 2:15 p.m., Langley RCMP said a confrontation between two people resulted in one person being stabbed. Three ambulances, several fire trucks and police were at the scene. The school district is on spring break so there were no students at the Aldergrove school at the time of the assault.

A 19-year-old is in serious but stable condition after being stabbed in the back in an altercation in Aldergrove on Tuesday afternoon. Langley RCMP said everyone involved, including the victim, are

involved in street level drugs. Around 2:15 p.m. Langley RCMP were called to a church parking lot in the 3200 block of 272 Street where a 19-year-old man had been stabbed in the back near his vehicle, said Langley RCMP spokesperson Cpl. Holly Marks. “Very preliminary investigation

is now underway and police believe the victim was in his vehicle with four other associates when a second car arrived and one male exited. The suspect broke a window on the victim’s vehicle with a metal pipe (possibly a crowbar) resulting in the victim exiting his vehi-

cle. A confrontation resulted and the 19-year-old was stabbed in the back,” said Marks. “The suspect fled in his vehicle and BC Air Ambulance arrived to transport the stabbed male to hospital. He is currently in serious but stable condition. “The parties involved appear to

be known to each other and all have some level of involvement in street level drugs,” said Marks. Police will continue to investigate and attempts are currently being made to locate the suspect. The school district is on spring break so the building didn’t have any students there at the time.

248 St. overpass opens, for just for a few hours RESIDENTS WERE USING IT ON FRIDAY DA N F ERGUSO N Tim e s Re po r t e r

For a few hours on Friday (March 14), the brand-new 248 Street overpass was open to traffic. Then, it closed again, much to the irritation of some local residents who contacted The Times to complain. When asked for an explanation, the provincial Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure emailed an unsigned statement to The Times that said the overpass “was briefly opened on Friday for project construction vehicles, during which time motorists were also granted access.” The overpass was then shut down again because it is “an active construction site and remains closed during the final construction and clean-up phase” the statement went on to say.

The overpass is expected to open “in the coming weeks” the statement added. The new land bridge over the freeway is part of a $24 million project to make it easier for trucks to get on Highway 1 heading east by adding a third lane on the long hill between 232 and 264 Streets. A fact sheet posted by the provincial government says traffic volume on that stretch of the highway reaches up to 3,500 vehicles per hour in the afternoon peak period, with trucks making up more than 14 per cent of the daily volume. Traffic is increasing at about three per cent a year. As part of the widening work, crews demolished the aging overpass at 248 Street to build a new structure that meets modern earthquake standards and includes a “multi-use pathway.”

Three roads closed at night Three roads will be closed at night for work on the final stages of the 196 Street overpass project on the Langley Bypass. Plans call for evening shutdowns of Fraser Highway at Willowbrook Drive, Willowbrook Drive at 196 Street and 64 Avenue at 196 Street until the end of April. An unsigned March 10 memo from the Township of Langley engineering department to council said the proposed work would take place between 8 p.m. and 6

a.m. from March 24 until April 30, including weekends. The 196 Street crossing is one of three overpasses in Langley known as the “combo” project designed to get increasing numbers of vehicles over heavier train traffic. The other two are the 192 Street overpass and an east-west connector on 54 Avenue. All are scheduled to open later this year. The 196 overpass is all but complete, but the other two require more work.

A LY S S A O’ D E LL Langley Time s

When this photo was taken in February, there was still considerable work to be done on the 248 Street overpass. It is now far enough advanced that some traffic was able to use it on Friday, before it was closed again. The Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure says the new overpass over Highway 1 will open “in the coming weeks,” but no specific date has been given.

New tips come from second search MONIQUE TAMMING A Tim es Reporter

Con tributed ph oto

A second search in Derby Reach Regional Park on Saturday unearthed some new tips about the disappearance of 19-year-old Nicholas Hannon. The Walnut Grove man has not been seen since Feb. 26, and his abandoned car was found on Feb. 27 on McKinnon Crescent.

Langley RCMP are following up on new tips generated from last Saturday’s search for missing Walnut Grove resident Nicholas Hannon. On Saturday, police did another search of Derby Reach Regional Park where Hannon’s car was found parked at the gate Feb. 27. “Our main reason for doing another search in the area is that the snow had melted away,” said Langley RCMP spokesperson Cpl. Holly Marks. That search did generate some new tips that officers are currently following up on. “We’re following up on any and all tips we have received,” said Marks. An entire team is dedicated to the disappearance of Hannon, she said. “Right now it remains a mystery as to what happened to Nicholas,” said Marks. Hannon was last seen on the morning of Feb. 26 by his younger brother.

The 19-year-old was reported missing on Thursday, Feb. 27, after police found his vehicle abandoned at the dead end of McKinnon Crescent in the 10400 block area. RCMP said the car had been there since at least 7:30 that morning. Police seized the car to look for clues. Nicholas’ dad Craig believes someone had dumped the vehicle there. “We don’t have any inkling as to what has happened to him,” said Craig in an earlier interview. Nicholas’ cellphone has not been used, said Craig. Nicholas has no history of depression and his family said he was happy when they last saw him. He’s a homebody and doesn’t have a big circle of friends. Craig hired a man with tracking dogs to go through the park but that didn’t turn up any clues. Within days of Nicholas going missing, Craig offered a $10,000 reward for the safe return of his son. If you have any information about Nicholas Hannon, call Langley RCMP at 604-532-3200.

$1 million this year on a detailed technical study of the Aldergrove project that will include a more exact cost estimate. Council also set a tentative $37.5 million budget for facility construction the year after. One of the known sites being sold to help fund the recreation centre is a proposal to develop 19 acres of land into 61 residential lots in Aldergrove. The site near 28 Avenue and 276 Street used to be a sewage treatment plant that was decommissioned in the late 1990s. Though there has been some opposition to the proposal, all but one member of council voted for the development. The overall cost of the Aldergrove rec centre took a jump in July of last year when a consultant’s report to council warned the Township of Langley would either have to find another $15

As a result, one section, McLellan Forest West, was taken off the market a few months after the sale plans were made public. The remaining forested property, the Gray Pit Lands, stayed on the market until Trinity Western University bought it for a nature reserve with the assistance of a $2.5 million donation from the family of the late Thomas Blaauw. (See related story, page 6). The information about the plan to sell off more municipal land identified as surplus was released by the Township in response to a Times query on Tuesday. Township staff are also searching for other sources of money, including grants from provincial and federal governments. Council approved spending

million or start cutting features. BTY Group of Vancouver put the cost of constructing a community centre with a new three-storey aquatic centre and two-storey ice arena at $50.3 million, more than the $35.5 million “spending envelope� approved by council. Township staff have also identified another $3 million in “off-site� costs connected with upgrading roads, water and sewer connections to accommodate the new centre. The new estimates were made after council decided to build a larger pool than the four-lane, 25-metre “short course� pool recommended by staff. At the time, an “Aquatic Needs Assessment� report by another consultant said the decision to go from four to six lanes would add $600,000 to $1 million to the cost.

A wooded 25-acre parcel of land in Glen Valley was officially dedicated as McLellan Forest Natural Park on Monday, March 3. The park is named for pioneer Fred McLellan who came to Langley from Cape Breton.

New Township park named after Glen Valley pioneer

WHY WEAR READING GLASSES?

A newly created municipal park has been named after a pioneer who lived off the land in Glen Valley. Over 25 acres of wooded land on 84 Avenue between 252 and 254 Streets was officially named McLellan Forest Natural Park by Langley Township council. Mayor Jack Froese made the announcement at council’s March 3 meeting. “This place holds special significance for many of our residents and it is fitting that it be named after the man and the family who first called the area home,” he said. “This is a community that values its history and heritage, and we are pleased that John F. McLellan’s name and the contributions he made to Langley will be

commemorated in this park.” Born in Scottsville, Cape Breton, Nova Scotia in 1860, John Fred McLellan moved west in 1878. He helped build many of the community’s roads and bridges in the early days of Langley. The McLellan farm was located near 256 (Coghlan) Street and River Road. McLellan died on July 2, 1940 at the age of 80 years, but his descendants continued to farm in the area as well as fishing the Fraser River. His great-great grandson, Greg McLellan, still lives in Glen Valley, and provided the Township with written and anecdotal family history. McLellan Forest Natural Park had previously been known as

McLellan Forest West. It was one of two Glen Valley properties that were put up for sale by Township council in 2012 to help fund a new community centre in Aldergrove. The result was a public backlash that saw council abandon the notion and vote in the fall of 2013 to preserve McLellan Forest as a municipal natural park. The second Glen Valley property, known as the Gray Pit Lands, was purchased by Trinity Western University for use as a conservation area thanks to a generous donation by Ann Blaauw and her family. The property was named after Ann’s late husband Thomas and will be preserved for public use, education, and research.

The resignation of Finance Minister Jim Flaherty on Tuesday is a pivotal moment for the Conservative government of Prime Minister Stephen Harper. Flaherty has been the only finance minister Harper has had, since he became prime minister in January, 2006. A former Ontario finance minister, he has developed a reputation for being careful with taxpayers’ dollars, seeking ways to save them money (a reduction in the GST and Tax Free Savings Accounts being two examples) and paying down the debt as soon as possible. In many ways, he resembles Paul Martin, who was one of Canada’s most successful finance ministers and did a great deal to keep the government of Jean Chretien in power. Unlike Martin, Flaherty is moving beyond federal politics. Martin coveted Chretien’s job and the struggle between them did a great deal of damage to the government and the Liberal Party. Harper does not have a lot of ministers or backbenchers who could replace Flaherty. He has chosen Joe Oliver, the 73-year-old natural resources minister, to take over. Clearly, his tenure will not be as long as Flaherty’s. Oliver does have a lot of experience in the financial industry, and is a competent minister. He should be able to take the government into the October, 2015 election. He does not have the experience of overseeing the massive spending of a large government body. However, he can use the tools Flaherty has handed over, and present a balanced budget in the next fiscal year. That will be a plus for a government going into the election. Economic competence is one of the Conservative government’s core strengths, and is vital for a finance minister.

Question langeytimes.com

of the week

Do you agree with the court decision saying Langley Township has rezoning authority, not Metro Vancouver?

Answer online at www.langleytimes.com

A court ruling in Langley last week could have implications for municipalities across the province. And considering what’s happening in Qualicum Beach, the decision is relevant for this region right now. According to reports in our sister paper, The Langley Times, the Township of Langley won a court battle last week against the Metro Vancouver regional authority over who has final say over development planning. While the specific details are available through court documents and at www.langleytimes.com, suffice to say it boils down to this: a judge has ruled a regional growth strategy is only “guidelines expressing policy” and not enforceable laws. In her written decision, B.C. Supreme Court Justice Neena Sharma said regional districts like Metro or, presumably, the Regional District of Nanaimo, “does not have superiority over land use management within the boundaries of a municipality.” The Town of Qualicum Beach is currently engaged in a debate about this very thing, ie. the weight of regional district edicts like regional growth strategies and urban containment boundaries. The court ruling last week in Langley will be welcome news for those in Qualicum Beach who believe the town, through its elected officials and staff, should determine what happens re: development within its boundaries. It will be unwelcome news for those who have favoured an extra level of scrutiny by another level of government. It’s logical to ensure a process where one municipality lets another know what they are doing, especially in regard to developments near each other’s borders. Water, sewer and other environmental concerns do not respect man-made lines on a map. There should be consultation — that’s what good neighbours do. However, the decisions of a duly elected council in one municipality (provided they are lawful and respectful of environmental concerns) should not be overridden or burdened by the laws of another municipality. The people of Qualicum Beach did not elect a Nanaimo or Cedar councillor to make decisions about Qualicum Beach. We will watch with interest in the weeks and months ahead what effect, if any, this court decision will have on the debate in Qualicum Beach. — Parksville-Qualicum Beach News

Use gas in B.C. Editor: In your article “Hard work to grow the economy is necessary,” (The Times, March 11), you discuss the hopes of MLA Rich Coleman to get LNG plants up and running in our province. You state “It’s important for taxpayers that he succeed, because the tax and fee burden on B.C. residents is getting to be a little over the top.” I agree about the tax burden, but if Coleman is successful we will be in the same boat as Alberta. The Alberta heritage fund is all but gone. Their debt is worse than ours and getting worse by the day. The fact is that their hydrocarbon industry is costing the people of Alberta a bundle. They pay high taxes to subsidize the oil and gas companies. After all these years of pumping oil and sweating it out of sand, one would think that the people of Alberta would be on easy street. Will the Liberal government do it any different? I don’t think so. We will pay a bundle to build those LNG plants, then have sell the gas into a market saturated with LNG suppliers. The entire world knows about shale fracking and soon countries that are now gas buyers will not be. This won’t be too far into the future. They will be LNG suppliers, competing against us. The world gas price will fall until no one makes any money. The time will come when we will give gas away just to keep a pipeline in operation and for some meagre employment. Now what do we do with a couple of LNG plants and no market for the gas they compress? The best thing this government could do would be to sell natural gas to B.C. industry for the cost of transportation, and bring industry to our province. The largest cost to industry is energy. With our surplus gas we can defray those high energy costs. The same holds true for our residents. Very cheap gas will reduce the cost of home heating, cooking and transportation. And at the same time give our atmosphere a break. If we use our natural gas correctly we won’t need more hydro dams. The cheapest way to produce hydrogen is from natural gas. JOHN WINTER, LANGLEY

Interest is fickle Editor: Public hearings go on for three days regarding the Brookswood/Fernridge Community Plan, then the Coulter Berry hearing dragged on for three more nights, with no apparent end in sight during the first two days last week. It would be nice if Mayor Jack Froese could rake ’em in on Township budget night, when typically only a dozen citizens show up. Then the remaining thousands do nothing but complain when their tax bill comes in. K. ANDERSON, LANGLEY

D A N FE R GUS ON Langley Time s

Developer Eric Woodward listens to the audience during an open house on the Coulter Berry building, held in February at Fort Langley Community Hall.

Fort’s heritage is under threat Editor: In the history of B.C., Fort Langley, the “first capital,” is recognized as a much-treasured historic site. Fort Langley in common parlance is understood to refer to the stockade itself and the village that surrounds it. Wikipedia (the free online encyclopedia) presents Fort Langley well and concisely and a quick read would bring you in full touch with this historic jewel within our Township. A quick read of the local papers, however, would bring you in touch with the fact that our history is imminently threatened with destruction. It is time for every person in the Township to take notice, sit up, stand up and speak up. What is not covered in the previously-mentioned article is the fact that, for decades, the tireless volunteers of the Heritage Society and their supporters have worked to preserve the integrity of the Fort Langley experience. It is a fact that, in 2004, the then-mayor Kurt Alberts and councillors Howie Vickberg, Steve Ferguson, Kim Richter and Bob Long moved to further strengthen the bylaws, strengthening the wording so that the wording was clear and unequivocal. That these efforts were successful is recorded in the Wikipedia article: “Many new buildings in the area have been constructed in Fort Langley in the past few decades. All new buildings must follow strict style guidelines to match the heritage appearance. Additionally, there are no franchises permitted in the village and this has raised its profile as a tourist and independent retail destination, with hundreds of thousands of annual visitors.” Here is the first why? A development proposal was put forward by a developer to place a large, three-storey building on the corner of Glover and Mavis. Given that every

other developer before him has read over the existing guidelines and either decided to conform and proceed or move on, this one did not. Why? The second why has to leave every thinking person perplexed. The previously mentioned mayor and council members who so vigorously moved to protect and preserve the village are now demonstrating complete support for the developer (except for Long), and have been joined by Councillors Grant Ward, Bev Dornan and Michelle Sparrow. Councillor David Davis has been against the proposal from the beginning. Long’s position is not clear. The photographs said it all, as white-helmeted council members and the current mayor, shovels in hand, promoted the developer and the development — before it was ever issued a building permit. The Township was taken to court and was subsequently presented with a ruling that the project could not legally continue. Our elected officials were, knowingly, breaking their own laws. The third why. Given this ruling, the Township’s elected representatives have now decided to change the laws and guidelines hat have applied to everyone else, except this one developer. At the marathon, three-night public hearing, one woman, taking the pro-development position, asked why we were complaining about the three storeys. “Given a few years, they will all be that high, so you won’t even notice,” she said. I think that says it all. I. MCKAIG, LANGLEY

A Langley woman who police say purposely drove the wrong way down Highway 1 in Abbotsford Sunday morning was taken to hospital to undergo a psychological assessment. The 36-year-old woman was driving a blue Volkswagen Beetle and crashed head-on with a car being driven by a 29-yearold Abbotsford man. RCMP Insp. Tim Shields said the woman was travelling east in the westbound lanes of the freeway when the crash took place under the Mt. Lehman overpass just before 9 a.m. “There is every indication that the …. woman driving the Beetle was aware of what she was doing at the time of the collision. Witnesses state the Beetle did not swerve to avoid the collision,” Shields said. The woman sustained minor injuries, while the man suffered a broken femur and injuries to his knees.

Frustration over school site fees B REN D A AND E R SO N Ti me s Re po r t e r

Six months after the Langley School District announced plans to more than double school site acquisition fees (SSAC) charged to developers, some Langley City council members are still searching for an ear to hear their concerns about the dramatic increase. On Monday night, council debated its next step in opposing the new fee structure, after receiving a copy of a letter from Education Minister (and former City mayor) Peter Fassbender to Wendy Johnson, chair of the Langley Board of Education. In it, Fassbender rejected the City’s request that separate school site acquisition charges be established for the City and the Township. The reason for the ministry’s decision, Fassbender wrote, is that objections raised by the City did not meet the necessary criteria spelled out in the Local Government Act, because they did not indicate a proposed eligible school site requirement to which it objects, nor the reasons for the objection. Under the current proposal, once implemented, the charges assessed to developers for single family dwellings would rise immediately from $354 to $737, while fees for townhouses and condos would jump to $590 per unit, from the current $283. The school district came up with the new figures last year, after it hired Urban Systems Limited to look into how much Langley charges the development community, and learned it has been charging significantly less than neighbouring municipalities. The City has argued that because it is growing at a much slower rate than the Township, it should not be assessed at the same rate for acquiring property on which to build new schools. The 10-year projected growth in the number of students in the City is just 370, compared to more than 8,000 in the Township. And while there may potentially be a need for a new high school in the City, a specific location hasn’t yet been nailed down. “Of course we didn’t specify where, because we’re not sure where any school sites would be. We have an idea,” said Councillor Gayle Martin. During multiple meetings with the school district, the City lacked some necessary informa-

tion, said Councillor Dave Hall. The former chair of the Langley School Board and retired teacher joined acting mayor Ted Schaffer in meeting with the board of education after learning about the fee hike last September. At those meetings, the City representatives were never told they had to address specific sites, Hall said. Council members were also under the impression that if the City rejected the school district’s assessment, the issue would be sent to mediation. However that option was also quashed by Fassbender, even though Johnson sent a letter to the ministry of education, requesting that a facilitator be appointed. A staff report prepared by Gerald Minchuk, the City’s director of development services, and endorsed by CAO Francis Cheung, recommended that the City take no further action on the issue, noting that any legal recourse would be both time consuming and costly. Hall vehemently disagreed with the suggestion. “Staff’s position was to simply walk away. I believe we need to proceed along a course of calling into question the way the (province) has treated us,” said Hall. “To simply walk away is not good enough.” According to Cheung, pursuing legal action could cost as much as $30,000. A vote to seek an opinion from the provincial ombudsman failed in a 3-3 tie, with Councillors Martin, Teri James and Rosemary Wallace opposed, while Hall’s motion to seek resolution through legal channels failed to find a seconder and died. “To clarify, we’re not going to the ombudsperson and we’re not seeking a legal opinion, we’re only sending a letter. Is that where we’re at?” asked Hall. “Yes,” replied Schaffer. “That’s disappointing,” said Hall. Responding to the charge that the City had not been adequately consulted about the increase, Johnson said that Langley School District secretary-treasurer, David Green, and the consultant did “the best job possible” in consulting with the City. “We did a lot of work in that area to answer their questions,” she said.

Two charged after Sunday shooting MO N I Q U E TA M M I N G A Ti me s Re po r t e r

A Surrey man and woman are facing a number of charges relating to a shooting in Walnut Grove on Sunday afternoon. Christopher Carl Agin, 29, and Rosemary Souriyavong, 24, were to appear in Surrey Provincial Court on Wednesday. Both are charged with robbery with a firearm and break and enter. Agin is facing a charge of discharging a firearm with intent, aggravated assault, assault causing bodily harm and possession of a restricted firearm. They have been in custody since their arrest on Sunday.

A third suspect, a 22-year-old Surrey man was arrested and released. Police are expected to forward charges against him too. Police were called to a property in the 8300 block of 216 Street after gunfire was heard. A licensed medicinal marijuana grow operation was found on the property as was one person who had been shot and another assaulted. A foot chase of the suspects travelled into a quiet Walnut Grove subdivision, where arrests were made with help from police dog services and the Emergency Response Team. The grow-op was the likely target of the suspects who are all known to police. A gun was also seized.

‘Spread kindness and positivity,’ says mother of Amanda Todd CAROL TODD, WHOSE DAUGHTER COMMITTED SUICIDE AFTER BEING BULLIED, SPEAKS IN LANGLEY A LY S S A O ’ D E L L Tim e s Re po r t e r

Carol Todd spoke to children and teens in Langley on Saturday, urging them to be strong and kind and to make the world better. age and confidence to recognize and protect themselves against bullying.

The power to stop the cycle of bullying is in the hands of those who know firsthand how damaging it can be, one anti-bullying advocate told a group of Langley children gathered at Langley Christian Middle and High School Saturday. “You guys are the ones who are going to make the world a better place,” said Carol Todd. Todd has been advocating for an end to bullying since her daughter, Amanda, took her own life in October 2012, after posting a video online explaining how she suffered at the hands of bullies. “You guys, as kids, are going to grow up to be the next set of adults,” said Todd. “We want to make sure that your kids and you – when you’re in your teenage (years) and your adulthood – that the world is a safer place for you.” Todd spoke to a group of attentive Langley children at the free Kidz ‘n Power Bullying Prevention seminar, the third bullying prevention session put on by Rahn’s Black Belt Academy in Langley. The program looks to empower kids with the cour-

“We don’t want to give bullies the attention that they want, because it’s negative attention. We want to give the attention to people who are doing random acts of kindness or intentional acts of kindness,” she said. “It’s things like that that make the world a kinder place.” Todd passed out pink bracelets with Amanda’s name and the words “stay strong” printed beside a small snowflake. “Snowflakes aren’t alike, and they’re really delicate and they’re fragile,” Todd told the audience. “When you think about everybody that’s on this world, we’re all fragile, we’re all our own person.” “There’s really nobody like you in the whole wide world,” explained Todd, encouraging kids to be strong and own their individuality. She also encouraged kids to stand up for themselves and others who are being bullied, recognizing when someone is treating them badly and removing themselves from that situation while confiding in a trusted adult. “We have to stay strong, we have to stand up and we have to be heard,” Todd said.

The BC Government is proposing to offload the province’s world-class recycling programs, run by local municipalities, to an association led by big multi-national corporations. The idea is that we’ll get a better, more efficient program that costs taxpayers less.

Currently, BC homeowners only pay, on average, $35 a year for curbside recycling. Under the proposed regime, you’ll pay more. Every time you bring home a pizza, buy toilet paper,

Unfortunately, what we’ll really end up with is anyone’s guess.

How much more? Well, nobody’s saying.

The association isn’t guaranteeing that we’ll get a better program, or even one as good as the current Blue Box program already in place. Since the association is led by big businesses outside of BC, many of whom are not even headquartered in Canada, one could presume that profits will come before environmental stewardship. They usually do. They also won’t guarantee that there won’t be any job cuts here in BC.

Here’s the only thing anyone does know: we already have a Blue Box program that works, is efficient, managed locally and puts the BC environment first. So why is the BC government flipping a coin, bringing in a questionable recycling program that some of our local elected officials are already calling a “scam?”

And how is this supposed to make things better for BC?

or pretty much anything else that comes in a package, businesses will be passing their increased costs on to you.

It’s time to contact Premier Clark and ask her.

What’s going on here?

Construction workers look at the scene of the collapse of a parkade being built as part of a new condominium complex in the 20200 block of 66 Avenue. The accident took place Monday afternoon.

Three escape injury as parkade collapses CONDOS UNDER CONSTRUCTION DAN FER GUSON Tim es Reporter

A parkade collapsed Monday afternoon (March 17) at a construction project in Langley Township, while three workers were standing on top. Construction crews were pouring a concrete slab for the parkade at a new condomonium complex on 66 Avenue near 203 Street around 3 p.m. when the supporting formwork gave way, WorkSafe B.C. reported. The safety agency said one worker managed to hang on to some con-

crete reinforcing rods, while the other two rode the collapsing slab as it sagged more than 10 feet. All three men managed to escape without injury, WorkSafe B.C. spokesperson Ally Skinner-Reynolds told The Times. “It was a miracle that no one was hurt,” Skinner-Reynolds said, “because we’ve seen people die [in similar accidents].” A WorkSafe engineer was to be on site Tuesday to investigate the cause of the collapse and to determine when work could safely resume.

Clay Construction was recently named Custom Home Builder of the Year at the Georgie Awards, which recognize the best in B.C.’s residential construction industry.

Clay Construction named Best Custom Home Builder in B.C. By Kerry Vital

Clay Construction was recently announced the winner of the Grand Georgie Award for Custom Home Builder of the Year, recognizing their exceptional home-building and commitment to their business. The

awards are handed out by the Canadian Home Builders’ Association of B.C., and honour the best in B.C.’s residential construction industry. “We are highly honoured to win this prestigious award,” says owner Larry Clay. “We’re proud to be a Greater Vancouver Home Builders’ Association member, and we believe that our client-centred approach allows us to focus on what is important to our customers.” In a competitive and sophisticated marketplace, Clay Construction looks for ways to distinguish themselves. Their clients are successful business owners and leaders in their respective fields who demand the best. The Clay Construction team’s goal is to successfully fulfill their clients’ expectations,

which involve clear communication, agreed-upon expectations, and consistent weekly reports. “Knowing where the project is financially at all times is crucial.” says Clay. “Clay Construction is founded on the principles of integrity, professionalism, quality, and transparency.” As part of their commitment to customer service, Clay and his team implement building practices that few custom home builders emulate. A detailed catalogue of pictures, moisture checks of the framing, and a detailed warranty binder are just three of the thirty items noted on their website where Clay Construction is unrivaled. They’re proud to share important practices on building a better home that will out-perform others.

“Every build has its own unique challenges,” says Clay. Their projects have included: large luxury estate homes on acreages, house and laneways built concurrently in re-emerging Vancouver neighbourhoods, a wheelchairaccessible R2000 house, and a split-lot project resulting in a couple of narrow homes with astonishing spaciousness. Furthermore, they have completed a wide spectrum of architecturally diverse homes from modern to Craftsman. Give them a set of plans and they will bring the home to life. Additionally, they will provide a detailed budget, scope and specifications before they move one stone. They believe that quality and peace of mind is something you should be able to depend on! Clients are guaranteed a homebuilding experience that is collaborative and enjoyable; something that Clay prides himself on. “I love what I do, and I love knowing my company is an award-winning leader in the industry,” he says. For more information, visit their website at www.clayconstruction.ca.

OP

Bright&Open Mason&Green by Polygon is the start of something new. With input from homeowners and people like you, we designed a new generation of two and three bedroom townhomes from the side-by-side parking garage on up. The result is open floorplans with more light, more living space, more storage, a main-floor powder room, and a way of life that feels just right. The result is Mason&Green.

Trio of awards for Wolfe Mazda

Twenty-five years ago, Wolfe Mazda opened its doors in Langley surrounded by fields and just six other car dealers. A quarter of a decade later the location is at the heart of the Langley Bypass auto hub. It welcomed top level executives from Mazda Canada and the company’s corporate headquarters in Hiroshima to Langley on Saturday to present Wolfe Mazda Langley with three awards to honour their achievements in sales and customer satisfaction. “It means much more than just just the hardware standing here,” said Kory Koreeda, president and CEO of Mazda Canada, of the awards. He credited dealership general manager Mike Hacquard for much of the success that has positioned the location as the number one Mazda dealership in the province by volume. “In general, for us, it’s all about customer experience, to be honest. He (Hacquard) is the benchmark for us.” Koreeda was joined at Wolfe’s Langley Bypass location by Akira Marumoto, Mazda’s executive vice president, alongside other high level Mazda Canada dele-

Real estate sales up from 2013 The British Columbia Real Estate Association (BCREA) reports that a total of 5,578 residential sales were recorded by the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) in February, up 24.9 per cent from February 2013. Total sales dollar volume was $3.4 billion, an increase of 43.1 per cent compared to a year ago. The average

MLS residential price in the province rose to $611,688, up 15.4 per cent from the same period last year. “Consumer demand was much stronger in February compared to a year ago, but edged lower compared to January,� said Cameron Muir, BCREA chief economist. “Weak employment growth in

2013 has limited home sales so far this year to long-term average levels.� “Record low mortgage interest rates and population growth continue to underpin the housing market and most regions of the province are at or near balanced market conditions,� added Muir.

Perseverance pays off for Rodriguez GARY AH U J A Ti me s Spo r t s

How many people would be motivated enough to spend their summer break working out with a personal trainer while having one foot in a cast? Would they spend more than a year away from the game, rehabilitating a wonky ankle just to return to the game they love? For Christian Rodriguez, it was an easy decision to make. “I was so eager to get back that I was trying to rush everything,” admitted Rodriguez. “I still had my cast on and … I really tried to rush things to get ready for September.” Rodriguez is a 21-year-old firstyear forward with the Trinity Western Spartans hockey team. His problems began in the 2012/13 hockey season with the Swan Valley Stampeders of the Manitoba Junior Hockey League. A badly sprained right ankle in an exhibition game kept him on the sidelines for more than a week and when he tried to return to the line-up, it was obvious all was not well as he struggled to skate with his ankle heavily bandaged. Rest did not help, so Rodriguez returned home to North Delta and after an examination was done on his ankle, he was diagnosed with a torn ligament, another that was stretched and one that was partially torn. Through it all, he kept trying to play, but to no avail. “It was honestly the toughest year of my life,” he said. “When you hit the ice, you shouldn’t worry about your foot hurting or your balance. You should just be out there playing.” “It got to the point where I was re-tying my skate every single shift just to get the stability that I needed on the one foot,” Rodriguez added. “When it came to the point that I knew my season was over and I needed the surgery, it was really tough.” As a 20-year-old, Rodriguez was in his final season of junior eligibility. His original plan on returning

Ankle problems kept Christian Rodriguez away from hockey for more than a year and made him appreciate his love for the game even more. from Manitoba was to re-join the North Delta Devils, the team he had played two and a half seasons with in the Pacific Junior Hockey League. But the team was going through a transition to new ownership and new coaches. There was an opportunity to join the Richmond Sockeyes — who went on to win the PJHL championship and the Cyclone Taylor Cup as provincial champs — but he was forced to pass on it knowing that he wasn’t physically able to help the team how he wanted to. “When it came to that point and I knew my season was over

and I needed surgery, it was really tough,” he said. “It was my last year (of junior), it is the year guys look forward to.” Rodriguez had plans to continue playing hockey at the university level, so missing a full season wasn’t ideal. “Once I got hurt, I didn’t know if any school would take me at that point,” he admitted. There was as six month wait to get the surgery done and finally in June, doctors performed reconstructive surgery on his ankle. The timetable he was given was a four to five month rehab period. “I was so eager to get back that I

was trying to rush everything,” he said. “I still had my cast on and I was walking even before I had it off.” A high school friend who now worked as a personal trainer, Jamie Wolff, would help him workout as Rodriguez dealt with his limited mobility. But despite all his efforts — and feeling better — he was not ready for the Spartans first semester. The biggest problem was that the two screws doctors inserted between his fibula and tibia would not be removed until December and they were restricting his skating ability.

“It was heartbreaking to know that I would miss half the season when I had worked so hard to be ready to get back,” he said. There would be no ‘woe-is-me’ for Rodriguez however, as he continued working towards his goal. “He loves the game and wanted to get back in the line-up as quick as he could,” said Spartans coach Barret Kropf. “He stayed teachable throughout the whole process, spent the extra time he needed in the gym and the film room, and stuff like that.” Rodriguez’ perseverance paid off as he joined the Spartans for actual game action in January. He finished the season with a pair of goals in nine games in a fourthline role. At the end of the regular season last month, Kropf didn’t plan on having Rodriguez in the line-up for the post-season but the forward forced his hand. “He just worked so hard in practice that I couldn’t leave him off the roster,” Kropf said. “He is a guy that is aggressive and tenacious in the corners and not afraid to get in there and retrieve the puck. “(And) he is a sponge, he wants to learn,” Kropf said For his part, Rodriguez is just happy to be back on the ice. “I really wanted to play and help the team, regardless of what role I was playing,” he said. “But all of that is so minor compared to what has happened over the last year. “I don’t think I will ever take for granted being able to play hockey anymore.” “I even tell that to my teammates — things may be difficult but at least they have their health and all they have to do is keep working hard.”

Express have Rivermen on the ropes A pair of third-period goals snapped a 3-3 tie and have the Coquitlam Express one victory away from eliminating the Langley Rivermen. The teams were tied at three in game four of the BCHL Mainland Division best-of-seven finals at Coquitlam’s Poirier Sports and Leisure Centre on Tuesday night (March 18). And Canon Pieper scored 31 seconds into the third period and Marc Biega struck for his second of the night — on the game’s only power play with 3:19 to play — to give the Express a 5-3 victory and a commanding three games to one series

lead. Game five of the series is March 20 at the Langley Events Centre with the Rivermen hoping to stave off elimination. Should Langley win, game six would be Friday (March 21) back in Coquitlam. If necessary, game seven would be at the LEC on Saturday (March 22). The Express struck first in game four with Jackson Cressey opening the scoring at 7:06. But the Rivermen scored twice be-

fore intermission with both Chris Forney and Matt Ustaski finding the back of the net. Biega’s first of the night tied the game at two early in the second and Rivermen captain Mitch McLain restored the one-goal lead five minutes later. But a few minutes after that, Ryan Rosenthal netted the tying goal for the Express. Ustaski (one goal, one assist) and Jakob Reichert (two assists) both had multi-point games for the Riv-

Dylan Allan puts his 14-year-old quarter horse Dodger through his paces on Sunday morning at the Thunderbird Equestrian Show Park. Allan, who is a competitive rider despite being legally blind, was participating in a demonstration by Pacific Riding For Developing Abilities of Langley. The show park hosted a country market on the weekend.

With the score tied at six in the final period of the third and deciding game, Okanagan Rockets’ Jake Kryski scored on a penalty shot to give his team a 7-6 victory and a 2-1 series victory over the visiting Valley West Hawks. The teams were playing at Kelowna’s Capital News Centre in the B.C. Major Midget Hockey League’s semifinal series. The Hawks lost despite out-scoring the Rockets a combined 1615 over the three games, all of which were played in Kelowna. The Rockets won game one 5-4 before the Hawks doubled them up 6-3 to stay alive in game two. Kryski scored on a penalty shot with 4:34 to play for what turned out to be the deciding goal of the series. Matt Bradley scored four times in the loss while Mitch Newsome had two goals. Bradley paced the Hawks all weekend long with six goals and nine points.

Langley, which dropped the first two games of the series on home ice, had gotten back in the series after a 28-save shut-out performance from Brock Crossthwaite in game three on Monday night in Coquitlam. In that game, Reichert scored on the opening shift and the team never looked back on their way to the 5-0 victory. Reichert, Kevan Kilistoff and Austin Azurdia finished with a goal and an assist apiece while James Robinson chipped in with a pair of assists. Will Cook and McLain had the other goals.

Three teams in Cup hunt Langley United booked itself a spot in the Pakenham Cup finals. The men’s Premier soccer team scored twice in the second half to prevail 3-1 over Aldergrove United in the semifinals on Saturday at Willoughby Community Park. Langley United controlled the first half and were rewarded when Mitchell Rohla sent a corner kick towards the goal and Andre Costa headed the ball home in the 25th minute. The score stayed that way — thanks to some key saves from Langley goalkeeper Colton Keam — until the 54th minute when Aldergrove was awarded a penalty kick and evened the game up. “Aldergrove continued with high pressure to about the 60-minute mark, when we regained our composure and momentum and continued where we left off in the first half,” said coach Rob Keam.

The team went ahead 2-1 at that point when Rohla capped off some excellent combination play of at least eight passes. And in the 78th minute, Rohla sent a free kick to Paul Ballard who made it 3-1. The other semifinal, which was also played at Willoughby Community Park, saw the PMO Lordco Gunners edge Abbotsford Magnusson Ford United 2-1. The two teams will play for the Pakenham Cup on March 29 at the Port Moody Town Centre. Game time is 4 p.m. The Pakenham Cup has been presented to the top Fraser Valley men’s soccer team since 1909 — except for 1915 to 1920, during the war years. Langley teams have won the Cup six times, most recently in 2012. The two teams also meet tomorrow (Friday) in the semifinals of the Soccer City Cup. •••••

Two other Langley United men’s teams have also advanced to their respective Cup finals. Langley United Dynamo defeated the Aldergrove United Red Devils 4-3. Dynamo was up 2-0 but fell behind 3-2 in the semifinals before Cameron Whitters forced overtime with a last-minute goal. After neither team scored in overtime, Langley won 4-3 in penalty kicks thanks to a pair of big saves from goalkeeper Bryan Roman. They will play Westcoast FC United in the President’s Cup final on March 29 at the Port Moody Town Centre at noon. And Langley United’s U21 team will play for the Cup against the PMO Lordco Gunners, also on March 29 at 9:45 p.m. at Port Moody Town Centre. Langley won thanks to a 4-1 semifinal victory over North Coquitlam United.

Four goals from Andrew Shook helped the Yellow Jackets capture the White Rock Challenge Cup. The Yellow Jackets faced off against Sonitrol on March 9 at Centennial Arena in White Rock, prevailing 6-5. It is the first time in seven

years the Yellow Jackets — a team of teachers and principals from Langley, Surrey and White Rock — have won the Cup. Three times the Yellow Jackets went ahead by a goal, but each time Sonitrol would tie things up. But Shook’s fourth of the night put the team ahead to

stay. Darien Russell picked up four assists in the victory while Rob Blair had a goal and two assists. James Blair also picked up a pair of helpers. The Yellow Jackets play in the White Rock Senior Hockey League.

Skyhawks, ’Cats win openers The Stafford Skyhawks have begun their rugby season in a dominating fashion as they won the Grade 8 boys title at the Langley 7s district tournament. It was held at R.E. Mountain Secondary on March 7. Meeka Gay picked up most valuable player honours. The Skyhawks then switched their focus back to 15-a-side rugby, winning an exhibition game over the Mountain Eagles 48-17 and then prevailing in their regular season opener, Abbotsford’s Chief Dan George. ••••• The Brookswood Bobcats senior girls rugby team scored a 20-5 victory over Elgin Park on March 12 on the ’Cats home field. The Bobcats defence was smothering, not allowing the visitors out of their half for the first 20 minutes. Nicole Taleon was especially impressive both with her tackling and some outstanding runs with the ball. Elise Cluney scored two tries, while Natalie Nguyen and Nadia Anthea had a try apeice for Brookswood in the victory.

Trinity Western’s Jackson representing Canada in Uganda Trinity Western Spartans cross-country and track and field athlete Alison Jackson is off to Uganda where she will represent Canada at the 2014 world university cross-country championships. She qualified for the event by finishing fifth at the 2013 Canadian Interuniversity Sport cross-country championships in the fall. She also won Canada West gold as the top finisher in the conference.

“I’m thrilled to represent both Canada and Trinity Western,” said Jackson. “For me, athletic-wise, it’s been a gift from God that my efforts can translate into a spot on this team. That doesn’t happen for everyone but my success has come because of just continuing to push myself and train hard every day.

Defence may win championships, but a little bit of offence is still needed for a team to be successful. That is what is ailing the Vancouver Stealth right now as they fell to 3-8 and remain in last place in the National Lacrosse League’s West Division. The Stealth were in Edmonton at Rexall Place on March 8 and for the second time this season, they came up one goal short of handing the Rush their first loss off the season. Edmonton improved to 9-0, becoming the first NLL team to ever start a season with that record. And the problem is a lack of offence, specifically from the leftside of the Stealth offence. “We got one goal out of the whole left-side of our offence and that hurt,” said Stealth coach Chris Hall. “On the left-side, we had one goal on 15 shots; that is horrible.” “We should be up close to the 20 per cent range,” he explained. “The good shooters are over 20 per cent and the decent shooters are around 20 per cent, maybe just under. But one-for-15, that’s (less than) seven per cent, which is incredibly low.” After the Rush scored the first three goals, the Stealth battled

back to tie the game at four at half-time and they led 8-7 after three quarters. But Edmonton scored three of the four goals in the final period to remain unbeaten. The Stealth power play was 0-4, and their defence out-scored the offence 5-4. “And in spite of that, we we lost 10-9 in a really tightly-battled game,” Hall said. “I thought our effort was very good and our goaltending was good and our defence was good, but we can’t put the ball in the net. It’s frustrating. “Clearly the struggle is to put the ball in the net.” The Rush also beat Vancouver 9-8 earlier this season, a game in which the Stealth led 7-2 at the half. Vancouver has one win in their past eight games. Mike Grimes and Rhys Duch both scored twice while Tyler Digby had a goal and three assists. Brett Bucktooth, Tyler Garrison, Nick Weiss and Jamie Lincoln had the other goals. Lincoln was playing his first game for the Stealth and provided the lone goal from the left-side. He replaced Lewis Ratcliff in the line-up as the long-time veteran was a healthy scratch. “It is a razor thin edge between winning and losing in this league

and we have had our injury woes and suspension woes, and those are costly in this league when there are so many one-goal games in this league and there is so little difference amongst all the teams,” Hall said. “Things have to be right and you have to be injury-free and hope that people are performing to the best of their capabilities, and right now, we have had our share of bad luck but we have also had our share of underperformance. Now we have ourselves in a hole.” The team hosts the Calgary Roughnecks on Friday (March 21) at the Langley Events Centre. Game time is 8 p.m. ••••• The Stealth did not make any moves at Tuesday’s league trade deadline, but a Langley player is on the move. Kyle Belton was traded from the Toronto Rock along with second and fourth round picks in the 2014 draft for Philadelphia Wings goaltender Brandon Miller. Belton was a 2012 third round pick of the Rock. In parts of two seasons with the NLL club, the 27-year-old forward has three goals, seven points and has gathered 86 loose balls in 21 games. A product of the Langley Minor Lacrosse Association, he plays senior A in the summers with the Langley Thunder.

The model year 2014 is already in full swing for Chevrolet as it rolls its products into the Vancouver International Auto Show. Many of the new and revamped products are already in dealerships so let’s take a look at what’s especially notable for this year. Cruze Diesel The popular selling compact from Chevrolet, the Cruz, now comes in an even more efficient setup: the Cruze Diesel. While the diesel model was launched last summer, it bears a 2014 designation. Under its hood is a 2.0L turbo-diesel that packs in 151 horsepower and 264 lb.-ft torque. Yes, it has that much torque and is most impressive. According to Chevrolet, it has a 0-96 km/h (60 mph) performance of 8.6 seconds, “which is better than the Volkswagen Jetta TDI automatic and competitive with German diesel cars that dominate the North American market.” In addition to that, it

For example, there’s now a fuel-saving start-stop technology added to the standard model, rear knee room improved by 1.25 inches (31.7 mm) and chassis and suspension developments enhance drive experience.

Camaro Z/28 For those diehard track day fans who have been waiting for an even more performance inspired Camaro, the wait is over. Almost. For 2014, the Z/28 makes its debut. All 2014 Camaro models feature a revised exterior design that integrates high-performance aerodynamics for more efficient cooling and stability at high speeds. However, the new Camaro Z/28 adds features like a full aerodynamics package that creates downforce at speed, which helps make it the most track-capable offering in Camaro’s history. Alongside its aerodynamic prowess, under its hood is a mechanical wonder. Its 7.0L, LS7 V8 hand-assembled engine was co-developed with Corvette Racing to make it as potent as possible. Its monster engine produces an estimated 500 horsepower and 470 lb-ft of torque. With those figures on paper, don’t expect amazing fuel results! And just like it takes an experienced driver to put it through its paces, your bank account will most likely need to be seasoned, too! It has an MSRP of $77,400. If you get to the show, all the GM brands, including Chevrolet, are well-represented.

The 2015 Mustang is now going to be sold around the world and developed as part of the “One Ford” approach to making cars they can share in every market. This means the Mustang will be sold, for the first time, with right hand drive for countries like the UK, Australia and Japan. The stance of the new Mustang is lower, wider and more muscular, with the wheels pushed out to provide better stability. The fastback has a steeper rake and a bigger trapezoidal grille has enhanced the shark nose design. Initially the Mustang will be sold as a coupe and convertible with the base and GT trim, the higher performance models will come later. Inside is another clean-sheet design, featuring real aluminum switches and dials, with two large gauges behind the steering wheel. The interior looks more upscale than any Mustang before. Under the hood the GT trim continues with the 5.0L V8 with improved valves and cylinders helping to pump out over 420hp. The base 3.7L V6 is also carried over but now with 300hp. The big news is the introduction of a 2.3L turbocharged EcoBoost 4-cylinder with an estimated 300hp and 300 lb.-ft. of torque. For years, the criticism has been the lack of independent rear suspension in the Mustang but this is no longer the case. A fully independent rear suspension will help get all the power down to the ground from all three engines plus provide improved handling. Ford is hoping with this new platform and available engines, this new model will provide as many thrills as any German sports model and for less money. Pricing has not been finalized but expect it to be in line with existing 2014 Mustang pricing. Ford is doing well here in Canada and with all-new products; it will have a good chance of staying number one. zack.spencer@drivewaybcca

In addition, the frame is made of thinner, lighter and stronger high-tensile steel that combined with the body, produces the weight savings. This is an industry first, and a revolutionary approach to building trucks. In addition to a lighter body, the engineers have developed two new engines to compliment the existing 3.5L EcoBoost turbocharged V6 model and 5.0L normally aspirated V8 engine. The first is a new 3.5L V6 engine, replacing the outgoing 3.7L model base engine. With a lighter truck, a smaller engine can do the work. A smaller 2.7L turbocharged EcoBoost V6 is also going to be introduced with an auto start-stop function that switches off the engine when the truck is sitting still. Official fuel economy ratings have not been released but Ford executives tell me they hope to have best in class gasoline fuel economy. Other enhancements to the F-150 include a new stepladder that integrates into the tailgate. Ford was the first to have this feature but it has been improved for 2015. The rear tailgate also has a softopen feature that prevents the tailgate from slamming down, plus a light switch near the back of the truck to illuminate the bed with new LED lights. The second vehicle that will have a big impact for Ford, but is more of an image car, is the all-new 2015 Mustang. Interestingly, about 25 percent of all Mustangs are sold here in British Columbia, so this is a big deal for us.

Are rural readers mathematically challenged? Fellow reader Dave Rush wonders, he writes: “I have never been able to understand why people living outside urban areas usually drive less fuel-efficient vehicles. When forced to travel greater distances, why do North Americans choose vehicles that guzzle more fuel?” I am convinced that our math skills or transportation logic is impaired. Do you have an explanation for him? And what drives-u-crazy?

Chrysler’s dark days are over

2014 Dodge Charger.

BOB McHUGH

These days, there’s always something new and interesting to see at a Chrysler auto show product display. Big and small it’s got’em all. – There’s a super-cute little Fiat that can run forever on a litre of fuel over here and a big, brawny heavy-duty Ram 2500 Laramie Longhorn Diesel that can pull a mountain over there. Then there’s value-packed Dodge, go-anywhere Jeep and those top-line Chrysler brand products, including the sleek new (2015) 200 sedan. Gear-heads will, of course, be gathered around the SRT Viper, which reportedly can transport occupants to 100 km/h in less than four seconds. On the business side, Chrysler Canada recently recorded fifty consecutive months of year-over-year sales growth, which is the longest period of continuous market improvement in the company’s history. Globally, 2013 was another great year for parent company Chrysler Group LLC, which reported a year-end net income of $2.8 billion, up from $1.7 billion the previous year. So far, in 2014, the sales growth story continues with award winning new vehicles and there are more new products in the pipeline. The radically redesigned Jeep Cherokee was recently voted 2014 Canadian Utility Vehicle of the Year, by members of the Automobile Journalists Association of Canada (AJAC) and has already achieved best ever midsize SUV sales results for Jeep. Cherokee is the first Jeep built on a body plat-

form co-developed with corporate partner Fiat S.p.A. The base engine is a fuel-efficient 2.4-litre Tigershark MultiAir 4-cylinder engine and there’s an optional new 3.2-litre Pentastar V6 engine. Other engineering highlights include a nine-speed automatic transmission and a new Jeep Selec-Terrain traction control system with up to five customized drive modes. This year the redesigned Jeep Grand Cherokee is offered with a new 3.0-litre EcoDiesel V6 engine option, which is expected to deliver best-in-class fuel economy, a driving range in excess of 1,100 km and towing capability up to 3357 kg (7,400 lb). A new eight-speed automatic transmission comes with all powertrains. Grand Cherokee also offers three 4x4 systems and a QuadraLift air suspension. Led by the Ram 1500, Motor Trend magazine’s Truck of Year for the second year in a row and the only half-ton with a diesel engine option, Ram is now the second-best selling vehicle in Canada. Chrysler separated its Dodge brand and created the distinct standalone Ram brand to concentrate on core truck customers and offers a range of vehicles that includes pickup trucks, vans, cab/chassis platforms and commercial products, The Fiat brand is a relative newcomer to the Chrysler family and is sold through selected Chrysler dealers. A recent surge in sales was led primarily by the introduction of a new Fiat 500L. Expanding the size and appeal of the diminutive

Cinquecento (Fiat 500) and offering 42 per cent more interior space plus seating for five, the new 500L is a contemporary and uniquely Italian styling package. If big, bold, and powerful is more your style,

the Dodge Charger is a rear-drive, full size sedan with power to match its muscular styling. A new Redline Package comes with 20-inch black chrome wheels, Beats Audio and an upgraded 300 horsepower, 3.6-litre

Pentastar V6 engine. If that’s not enough, there’s a new R/T edition comes with a 370 hp HEMI V8 engine. The best selling minivan of all time, Dodge Grand Caravan is the definitive family transporter. It now only comes with a Pentastar 3.5 litre V6 engine - no gutless base engine here - linked to a 6-speed automatic transmission. A new “Blacktop” package includes a black gloss front grille and headlamp treatments plus black polished aluminum wheels, giving it a more sinister appearance. The already mentioned 2015 Chrysler 200 is a redesigned mid-size sedan for those who have earned the right to enjoy some luxury and those extra frills, yet still demand value for money. The 200’s

Confessions of a Curber My next vehicle came from a used car wholesaler*. There was nothing wrong with it, but he couldn’t find a dealer who wanted it. I gladly took it off his hands. How hip was I? I had a new source of newer vehicles that would come right to me. “Two-year-old car for sale. No previous accident history reported, only 35,000km on it. Call with offer.” Shortly after, I got a call from a young man. His car had just broken down, and he needed a new one fast. He agreed to meet me at the local construction site where he worked. He was just finishing up his lunch when I arrived. He was wearing his construction uniform and I immediately noticed his tired eyes. I felt bad for the poor fellow, and I was glad that I was selling him a reliable vehicle. He didn’t need another headache on top of everything. I even knocked $500 off the price I wanted. It was a smooth edd happy h and transaction. The guy looke looked ely forr all the help. I thanked me immensely beamed back at him. Around 5:00 a.m. the next morning, I got a ructioon worker, yelling so call. It was the construction ely understand u loudly that I could barely him. ” he said over and over “THEY TOOK IT AWAY,” !” again. “REPOSSESSED!” I hung up on him and triedd to make sense of ld th he car be taken the situation. Why would the he night? n Who’s away in the middle of the “they”? ad a lien on it. Liens. Of course. The car ha had ell on a lot. The bank That’s why it wouldn’t sell must have seized it due to an unpaid balance. idnn’t want to get As before, I panicked. I didn’t w. SSure, I sold him the involved in this right now. seed to know it had car, but how was I supposed

a lien on it? I realized the wholesaler* had scammed me! If that fellow had asked for a CarProof history report or even a provincial lien search, I’d be the one screaming. Over the next several hours, I kept letting my phone go to voicemail – I couldn’t bear speaking to the young man. I knew I had to switch phones again. I felt a bit ashamed. But I needed to be selfish about this. At this point, the best thing for me was cash. And lots of it. *Wholesaler – Vehicle sellers may call themselves auto brokers or wholesalers to sound legitimate and cheaper. But if they’re selling to private buyers, they must be licensed as a dealer. Like any curber - an individual posing as a private seller but selling vehicles as a business – wholesalers and brokers offer none of the protection the law provides for purchases from a Vehicle Sales Authority licensed dealer. Walt learned that lesson, sson, but his buyer paid the price.

“They took it away,” he said over and over gain. “REPOSSESSED!” again.

exterior front-end design is apparently the new

chassis. At the LA auto show about six years ago, the lights were turned out at an abandoned Chrysler display during the press preview days. It was both ominous and sad to see, as behind closed doors a once great company was struggling to survive. The dark days are over.
