Kristan Arens looks on as Donna Mori takes a shot with an oversized basketball prior to the start of the Langley Walk in Fort Langley on Sunday. Despite the downpour, 520 people registered for this year’s walk, vying for titles in a range of categories. The winners were: Most walkers from an elementary school – Belmont Elementary; most walkers from a secondary school – Aldergrove Community Secondary; most walkers from an organization – Stepping Stone; most walkers from a family – Humberstone family and oldest walker — A. Myers, 87 years old.
Less than 48 hours after a ban on clear-cutting took effect, Langley Township staff began investigating an alleged violation of the new regulations. The ban in the Brookswood/Fernridge area was enacted on Tuesday night, (April 29), after council approved a bylaw that limits tree-cutting to eight trees or 20 per cent of trees on a property, whichever is less. On Thursday, May 1, multiple complaints were made about alleged clear-cutting on a property in the 20300 block of 27 Avenue, on the south side of 27 Avenue at the end of the road. A warning letter to the two registered owners of the property was drafted by Township staff Friday and delivered Monday. A visit by a Times reporter after the initial complaints were made found most of the trees on the 2.15 acre site had been taken down. Continued Page 6

Township has deal with union employees FOU R-YEAR CONTRACT REACHED DAN FER GUS ON Tim es Reporte r
DAN FER GUSON L an gley Tim es
Two people were injured, and several children were unharmed, in a serious two-vehicle collision at 56 Avenue and 264 Street, just north of Highway 1, on Tuesday evening. Charges are being looked into by Langley RCMP against the driver of a sports car that collided with a mini-van.
The Township of Langley and its unionized workers have negotiated a new contract. The four-year deal was ratified by Township council on Monday, May 5 following its acceptance by the 418 Township full-time, part-time employees and auxiliary employees, members of CUPE Local 403. The agreement comes after more than a year of negotiations and more than two years after the previous contract agreement expired. It provides a back-dated pay hike of 1.25 per cent in 2012 and 1.75 per cent in 2013, plus a pay raise of 1.75 per cent this year and two per cent in 2015. “This is a fair and equitable set-
tlement for both sides,” said Township Mayor Jack Froese. “We have reached a reasonable deal that is comparable with others within the region.” Local 403 president Paul Albrecht said the membership is “happy” that a settlement has been reached. “We’re two-and-a-half years in [to the new contract],” Albrecht said,” so we’ll be back at it in about a year.” The new pay rates take effect in June. The Township agreement adds a paid break for the new Family Day statutory holiday. Negotiations between the City of Langley and its unionized employees are continuing.
TransLink helps fund Driver hits van full of kids Fraser Hwy. widening WITNESS SEES HIM CARRY BEER TO RESTAURANT

A 32-year-old Abbotsford man who drove his car through a red light and hit a mini-van full of young children was witnessed crawling out of his mangled car afterwards, walking over to a fast food restaurant, with a 12pack of beer under his arm, to order a burger and call a taxi on Tuesday. Langley RCMP confirm alcohol and speed were factors when the white Nissan sports car the Abbotsford man was driving hit the van at a high rate of speed at the intersection of 264 Street and 56 Avenue, north of Highway 1, around 5:30 p.m. Surrey Leader reporter Evan Seal said he was at the McDonald’s when he heard the loud bang of the crash and smoke coming from the intersection. “You could hear the kids screaming and crying. There were
already people there helping. The woman driving was on the ground seizuring,” said Seal. While many witnesses were helping the kids and woman in the van, Seal watched the driver of the sports car crawl out his vehicle, via the roll-bar roof, and start collecting his belongings into a plastic bag. He then went back to his car, grabbed a 12-pack of beer and walked over to the fast food restaurant. Seal followed him. The driver was limping from a compound fracture to his leg. He was later taken to hospital with broken bones, said police. “He ordered himself a meal and called himself a taxi,” said Seal. Witnesses said the driver appeared extremely impaired and seemed oblivious to the fact that a bone was sticking out of his leg. The children in the van were checked out and are believed to

be all OK. The woman driver of the van was taken to hospital. She was treated for minor injuries and released. Another witness to the crash said he was making the exit to 264 Street just prior to the crash when the white Nissan passed him on the shoulder, travelling at speeds of up to 200 km/hr. Just making the curve, the vehicle then ran the light and hit the van. The witness said the impact was so hard, that the van was hit twice. Witnesses to the crash sent the taxi away. By then, Township firefighters were on scene and stayed with the bleeding man until police arrived. Both vehicles were towed from the scene and will be investigated by police. Witnesses who haven’t yet spoken to police are asked to call Langley RCMP at 604-532-3200.
WORK WILL BEGIN IN 2015 DAN FER GUS ON Tim es Reporte r
Work to widen the next stretch of Fraser Highway in Langley Township will likely begin next year. Plans call for expanding Fraser Highway between the 23300 and 23500 blocks to four lanes, including new bike lanes, sidewalks and other improvements. Estimated cost of the work is $3.6 million, with half coming from the Township and half coming from TransLink. The municipality and the transportation agency began putting money aside for the project last year, roughly a third of their share each year for three years until 2015. On Monday, TransLink announced it would be contributing $611,000 to the Fraser Highway project in 2014, part of more than $45 million in funding for road
projects across Metro Vancouver. TransLink also announced $32,000 in funding for new bike lanes on 32 Avenue in Aldergrove,from Highway 13 to 276 Street and on 276 Street from 32 Avenue to Fraser Highway. Another $35,000 will be spent on bike routes in the Willowbrook area along 203 Street, 202B Street, 66 Avenue, Willoughby Way, 197 Street, 68 Avenue and 197B Street. Including road maintenance and repair funding, the Township will get a total of $2 million from TransLink while the City of Langley will get $512,000 in 2014. A section of Fraser Highway was widened to four lanes between 228 and 232 Streets last year as part of a $5.9 million project jointly funded by the Township and TransLink that also realigned the 44 Avenue intersection.

Trees were cleared from a two-acre lot on 27 Avenue in Fernridge, starting on Thursday, May 1 — two days after Langley Township council passed an interim tree protection bylaw for the Brookswood-Fernridge area. The Township issued an order to stop work on the property and is now looking into charging the property owners under the new bylaw. The Times received numerous calls from members of the public about the tree-cutting. This photo was taken on Sunday, May 4. See story, page 1.

Lawsuit forces City to revise last year’s budget SHARE OF $2 MILLION JUDGMENT ON LAND EXP ROPRIATION WILL BE PAID FROM 2013 CA SINO PROCEEDS B REN D A AN D E R SO N Ti m e s Re po r t e r
A court decision ordering the City of Langley to pay more than $2 million for not properly compensating a local business when it expropriated land in 2005 has left the municipality rearranging its finances and one council member suggesting that more could have been done eight years ago to prevent the current situation. In January, the City learned it had been successfully sued by a property holding company for lost value of land which was expropriated by the City to build the 204 Street overpass across the Langley Bypass and CP Rail tracks. Following a trial in Supreme Court in New Westminster that ended on Oct. 3, a judge agreed with the plaintiff, Rockcliffe Estates, ruling that the City of Langley’s payment of about $800,000 didn’t appropriately compensate the company for a strip of land that was purchased to build the overpass. It has ordered the City and the province — who were 50-50 partners in the project — to pay an additional $2,026,360, including legal costs. Of that amount, roughly $700,000 is interest. The City is proposing to pay its share through transfer of $975,765 in unused 2013 casino proceeds as well as $18,640 from last year’s Capital Works Reserve. The provincial government has already contributed its portion — $1,016,560 — toward the amended project budget. Although its commitment is 50 per cent, the province is paying slightly more toward the assessed amount than the City because the figure includes costs incurred in 2012, after the province was last billed for its share, explained the City’s corporate officer Darrin Leite. Following an opportunity for public input on Monday night, council gave first, sec-
ond and third reading to a series of amendments to the municipality’s 2013 budget. The only member of the public to speak during the Committee of the Whole, Langley resident Paul Albrecht, commented that he was “perplexed” about how the City could have been so far out on its calculation of the acquisition price. Noting that he was not a member of council in 2005, when the decision was made, councillor Dave Hall suggested that a larger, dedicated contingency could have been set aside against a potential lawsuit, and that council should have been kept better informed about the issue. “I’m not against the settlement as it is. We’re obligated to deal with the matter as it’s been settled in court,” said Hall. “The difficulty is in the transparency of the process.” “It was not flagged, other than a single meeting after the court decision was reported in the local paper,” said Hall, adding the article published February was the first he’d heard about the ruling. “To get a handle on this, we need more timely information.” Earlier in the meeting, Hall suggested that council had not been notified about the suit through any of its quarterly, year-end or audit reports. “As council members, we’re trusted by the public to keep a handle on this,” he said. “How can I be prepared for an overrun of this magnitude if none of the financial overseers bring it to my attention?” The City’s CAO, Francis Cheung, challenged Hall’s assertion that council had not been kept informed, saying that updates had, in fact, been given during meetings which Hall had attended. “Staff made every effort to keep council informed,” he said. Councillor Gayle Martin, one of three sitting council members — along with
GAY LE MA RTIN
DAVE H A LL
current acting mayor Ted Schaffer and Jack Arnold — who were on council in 2005, said
it seemed clear that the sole purpose of Hall’s comments was to ‘throw those of us
(who were on council) under the bus.’ Council didn’t possess a crystal ball in 2005, she said. “How could we predict what a court would do?” Given the same situation, it’s unlikely they would do anything different, said Martin. “We could never have predicted this would happen eight years later.” Cheung said that the City had tried to negotiate with the property owners prior to expropriating the land and, later, to come to a settlement, but to no
avail. “It went to trial and, unfortunately, the judgment went against the City.” Rockcliffe Estates sued, claiming compensation for the value of land that was expropriated by the City, as well as for the reduction in market value of the surrounding lands it owns, where Scan Designs is located, and to adjoining property, plus interest and costs. Rockcliffe argued that the overpass has impeded sight lines and accessibility to Scan Design’s furni-
ture store. The judge agreed. “Langley itself was delinquent in updating its original assessment of Rockcliffe’s loss,” said Justice Bruce Greyell in his judgment. The amended 2013 capital improvement plan, which also included a further 11 projects — including allocating additional funds to a Fraser Highway curb project and Douglas Park Water Park — will likely go to final reading at the next council meeting on May 12.

There was a single-family house in the middle of the clearing, but it did not appear to be occupied. On Monday afternoon, Township council approved an enforcement policy that will see Township staff seek court injunctions to halt clear-cutting. The policy, drafted by Councillor Kim Richter, sets a fine of up to $500 per tree. It says the Township will “prosecute all violations of Interim Tree Clear-Cutting Bylaw 2014 No. 5071 for which staff feel there are reasonable and probable grounds of a conviction …” The cost of enforcement will be paid from Township “contingency accounts, reserves and surpluses … until adoption of the 2015 Budget.” The policy eliminates the requirement for written complaints about issues involving private property to allow people to report clear-cutting by telephone “as the need for expediency is required.” As well, it orders public notic-

es to be issued that the Township “intends to prosecute and seek injunctions and fines for up to $10,000 for infractions against the bylaw.” The Richter policy, seconded by Councillor Michelle Sparrow, was passed during council’s regular closed-door session held Monday afternoon (May 5). A statement issued by the Township on Tuesday, May 6, noted the clear-cutting bylaw only affects “properties in the geographic area outlined in the Brookswood/Fernridge Community Plan and does not apply to land within the Agricultural Land Reserve or land being used as a farm operation.” Trees can still be removed if they are blocking sight lines under the Township’s highway and traffic bylaw or if “they are in an area approved by provincial regulation for a septic field or water well.” Trees may also be removed for construction of a building if approved by a development permit, development variance permit, or building permit issued by the Township.

they are considered hazardous, as certified by an arborist, or in case of an emergency, if certification is provided to the Township engineering department within 30 days after the cutting. The interim ban on clear-cutting will remain in effect until a new official community plan has been prepared for Brookswood/Fernridge or a permanent tree protection bylaw is passed. Several residents of Brookswood have complained that some property owners have been clear-cutting their lots because they expected a proposed new official community plan would permit higher-density housing. However, the draft community plan was rejected by council after a marathon public hearing dominated by opponents. While many residents of Brookswood/Fernridge have supported a tree protection bylaw, many others do not, complaining that the regulation represents an unwarranted interference with private property rights.

Figueroa can’t attend his own judicial review hearing PETITION SEEKS PERMISSION FOR LAN GLE Y M AN TO V IEW PROCEEDINGS VIA SKYPE When Immigration Canada ruled Jose Figueroa deported back to El Salvador, the woman who wrote up the decision said he could parent via Skype. Now, the Langley father of three is being told that Skype is good enough for parenting but not an option for him to be able to participate in his own judicial review hearing in the Federal Courts in Vancouver May 26. Figueroa was forced to seek sanctuary in October 2013 at the Walnut Grove Lutheran Church after the Canadian Border Services Agency put out a warrant for his arrest. “I do have the right to see, hear what it
is said in the hearing; but I can’t leave the church without being placed into a detention centre. For this reason we have started a petition to the Federal Court to allow me [to] participate [in] my own judicial review via video conference from Walnut Grove Lutheran Church,” said Figueroa. A petition to the courts has been created online and Figueroa and his many supporters are hoping the community will sign it. More than 185 people have signed it so far, but Figueroa is hoping for more. “Signing the petition means a lot because it is people showing their democratic right to have their voices heard,” said Figueroa. It has been seven months since Figueroa sought sanctuary, not leaving the church
once since then. It has been four years since his deportation order was issued. Wednesday marked 17 years since Figueroa and his wife legally entered Canada. All three of their children were born here. “It has been stressful for all of us. There are so many frustrations. But I took sanctuary because it was my only option to see my family,” he said. Figueroa has been ordered deported because of his support as a university student of the FMLN during the civil war

in El Salvador. The FMLN are now the democratically-elected government in El Salvador. Despite the Federal Court granting Figueroa a temporary stay of the deportation on Oct. 29, 2013, the CBSA surveillance has continued and intensified, he said. As many as 14 clergy from various churches are planning to attend the judicial proceedings in support of Figueroa.

Question langeytimes.com
Langley Township council may have been divided on an interim tree preservation bylaw for the Brookswood-Fernridge area, but the Township is not hesitating in taking steps to enforce the bylaw, which came into effect April 29. In some respects, it had little choice. Residents of the area have mobilized to a degree that is almost unprecedented, and are on the alert for any flagrant acts of mass tree-cutting. Last Thursday, The Times received three messages in one hour about one property on 27 Avenue which was being denuded of trees. The Township was also being inundated with calls. It issued a cease-and-desist order on Friday and is now looking into charging the owners of the property with breaking the bylaw. Maximum fine is $10,000. The clear-cutting did not begin until Thursday, two days after the bylaw passed. The owners of the property do not reside on the land in question, although it is quite likely they had heard about the potential for a tree-cutting bylaw, given the heated discussion over the Official Community Plan and the many instances of rampant tree-cutting in the area. These incidents seems to have increased quite substantially since concerns about the Official Community Plan were raised at open houses several months ago. When council rejected the OCP changes, tree-cutting seemed to rev into a higher gear. While such counter-reactions are not unusual, it was akin to waving a red flag at an already-enraged bull. Had property owners kept the chainsaws quiet, it is unlikely there would have been such a swift reaction. The issue of clear-cutting in an area such as Fernridge and Brookswood is much more than simply a property rights issue. Few would disagree that there are some magnificent tree specimens in the area, and that its wooded nature is one of its main attractions. Those property owners who simply ignore that, and cut down all the trees on their large properties, are the ones who brought on this bylaw. Their lack of consideration for others has led to government interference, and watchfulness and mistrust on the part of their neighbours. It’s the opposite of the community spirit that Langley is well-known for.

Should Langley school trustees get an 18 per cent increase in their salaries?
Answer online at www.langleytimes.com
New job description they
say
There’s a reason why we call them first responders. Police, firefighters and paramedics are the first people called when we need help. It used to be for fires, car accidents or falling from a
tree. But soon police, firefighters and paramedics are going to have to add ‘social worker’ to their job descriptions. When they’re walking or biking the beat, police are often the ones contacting social service providers for people in need, checking on vulnerable people to ensure they’re safe, and diffusing dangerous situations. It’s a specialized skill set that used to fall to case workers. As the provincial government closes facilities for people with mental illness, reduces services and resources, case loads for social workers increase and people simply fall through the cracks. Where the police used to be the last call, now they’re often the first. Care for people with mental illness, brain injury or developmental disabilities is complex. With fewer doctors available to take new patients, those high-maintenance clients are left calling crisis lines and walk-in clinics for stop-gap measures instead of a solution. Add in poverty, poor nutrition, barriers to housing and it doesn’t take long for someone barely getting by to suddenly end up in crisis. It takes a community to raise a child, but it also takes a community to ensure that our most vulnerable people are safe and cared for. That means access to food and nutrition, health care, adequate social services and affordable housing – not a jail cell. — Campbell River Mirror

Diluted bitumen defended
A collision of rights Editor: There have been many articles and comments lately, in your newspaper and others, dealing with Trinity Western University, its planned law school, and its covenant. Many of these articles have framed the issue as one of freedom of religion and association. It is clearly that, but it is also expressly about freedom against discrimination. The crux of the debate is about what happens when freedom of religion hits headlong against freedom of expression, and the right not to be subject to discrimination for some part of oneself that is central to one’s identity. This is the dichotomy. TWU’s covenant forbids one from engaging in sexual relations outside theirs (TWU’s) own definition of marriage. Homosexual sex between married spouses, or sex within a heterosexual or homosexual common-law union is prohibited, and grounds for expulsion from its planned law school, or any other of its existing faculties. The TWU definition of marriage is narrower than the current legal definition of marriage. A student can be legally married yet still be in a position where sex with one’s spouse violates the covenant, and risks expulsion. Many proponents of TWU’s covenant state that they, as a community, can hold any beliefs that they want. While this is true, their conduct must be consistent with the law. The issue here is not one group’s religious beliefs, the issue here is the conduct of an institution. How will the planned law school deal with a homosexual law student who has sexual relations with his or her lawful spouse, and how will the planned law school deal with a law student who has sex with his or her common-law partner? It is the conduct of the university and the application of the covenant to certain groups in our society that needs to be examined. Those in favour of a law school point to the 2001 TWU v. B.C. College of Teachers case as authority for the proposition that their covenant should be applicable to their planned law school. The holding in that case seems to give tacit approval to TWU’s future plans. The question now is whether the law as it was stated in 2001 still applies today. The evolution of gay rights has progressed rapidly in the past 13 years. The legal definition of spouse in this province has expanded over that time. The legal definition of marriage has expanded over the same period of time. Same-sex marriage was not legal at the time of the above 2001 Supreme Court decision, it now is. Parliament has since spoken on that issue. This leaves open the very serious question as to whether TWU’s covenant would receive the same treatment today by the Supreme Court of Canada, as it did 13 years ago. Rights evolve and change over time, leaving open the question of whether it is appropriate to discriminate against one group in the name of religious freedom, or any other freedom. TWU has the right to have these views. The question is how far can those views go when the institution’s application of those views affects the rights of others, and prevents others from being members of their community of higher learning, when those individuals may be otherwise qualified to be such members. TWU can believe anything it wants in the name of religious freedom but when its actions victimize a particular identifiable group, it must be much more careful. Law Societies of the various provinces seek not to regulate personal or institutional beliefs, but will and must regulate conduct. Such regulation is within the purview of their power. Ultimately it looks like the highest court in the land will be called upon to take a stand when these fundamental rights collide. There is, and must be, a fundamental distinction between belief and conduct. DAVID R. THOMPSON, LANGLEY
Editor: Re: Columns by David Black, (The Times, Apr. 24 and April 29). Continued safe marine and pipeline transport of hydrocarbons is in everybody’s interest, so Canadians can realize value for resources and oil producers can continue to deliver jobs and economic benefits. No one wants a spill of any product at any time. The performance track record over the past 50 years is good, but even still, work is ongoing to improve prevention and ensure producers, transportation companies and spill-responders have the best information available to manage products safely and make the best plans possible for response, containment and clean-up in the event of an incident. Black’s articles incorrectly suggested the Canadian oil industry is not interested in the proposed refinery project, and that transporting diluted bitumen is more risky than transporting other types of oil because of its chemical properties. Fact is, oil producers are seeking increased access to existing and new markets — in Canada, the United States and internationally — to satisfy market demand for increasing Canadian oil production. All options to achieve that goal are worthy of study. And diluted bitumen — oil sands bitumen diluted with natural gas liquids that allow it to flow — is no more dangerous than other types of crude oil. Chemically, there’s nothing about diluted bitumen the transportation system cannot be prepared to manage. Whether it moves by pipelines or tankers, diluted bitumen meets all the same speci-
fications and behaves the same as other crude oils. Oil floats on water if it has an API gravity above water’s 10 degree API gravity. Diluted bitumen has an API gravity of 20-22 degrees. Any type of oil spilled in water eventually “weathers” and can be driven below the surface by waves or currents. Diluted bitumen behaves the same way. There have been several scientific studies completed on diluted bitumen. Earlier this year, the federal government released a research study that demonstrated diluted bitumen floats on salt water — even after evaporation and exposure to light. The study was commissioned by Environment Canada, Fisheries and Oceans Canada and Natural Resources Canada as part of the government’s plan to implement a world-class prevention, preparedness and response regime for marine transportation. Results of the study will be used to inform spill responders and help guide more research. Our industry is focused on responsible development of Canada’s resources. We welcome transparency on our safety and environmental performance, based on sound science. As producers, we transport oil with care and attention at all times. We expect all transportation providers to deliver safe services in a responsible manner. GREG STRINGHAM, CANADIAN ASSOCIATION OF PETROLEUM PRODUCERS, CALGARY
Brenda Reddick was a hero Editor: An overflow crowd gathered at Brookswood Fire Hall No. 5 on Sunday, May 4 to pay tribute to Brenda Reddick, who died April 13 at age 53 of early-onset Alzheimer’s disease. Brenda beat cancer, but she couldn’t defeat the ravages of the cruellest dementia that kills at such a comparatively youthful age. The wife of longtime Langley firefighter Rick Reddick and mom of sons Keith and Brent was also “den mother” over the years to dozens of firefighters, who turned out in droves for the celebration of her courageous life. She was also the first honouree, in 2011-2012, of the very first local Walk for Memories, an annual fundraiser for the Alzheimer Society of B.C. that trod new territory at Aldergrove’s Athletic Park on Jan. 29, 2012. She bravely stepped forward to be the poster face of this event, despite reeling from the recent confirmation of early-onset Alzheimer’s — a disease that had already caused her father’s death and afflicted another family member. She did so, despite some reservations voiced by family and friends, because she wanted to raise the profile of the dementia campaign and show that it affects more than the (wrongly) stereotypical image of an

elderly grandmother doddering gently into her final night. And what a difference she made. Thanks to Brenda’s courage and the support of her extended firefighting family, the first Walk for Memories raised $44,000, way beyond its organizers’ dreams. Thanks to Brenda’s bold first step, the Reddicks and that firefighting family have stayed with the Langley-Aldergrove-Abbotsford Walk through its second and third years, many ways to keep Brenda’s dream

That’s their job,” he said.“Brenda was a hero.” That she was. She may be gone from us but, thanks to continuing support for our Walk for Memories, her courage and determination will live on.

Change to education, trades training was overdue The B.C. government has rolled out its ambitious overhaul of the public education system, from Kindergarten to graduate school, much to the horror of its left-wing establishment. The formal title is B.C.’s Skills For Jobs Blueprint: Re-engineering Education and Training. It’s designed to dovetail with the Harper regime’s Canada Job Grant that requires employers to co-sponsor training spaces so they will hire the students at the end.
Elementary and middle school curriculum is being revised to increase emphasis on hands-on experience. High school and post-secondary skilled trades programs are getting more money, but it’s going to be shifted from under-performing programs that don’t lead to jobs. Premier Christy Clark took another swipe at the bias of B.C.’s system before heading to Malaysia, Singapore and Hong Kong on another liquefied natural gas sales trip. She

One of the key architects of this sweeping plan is Jessica McDonald, who shook up the public service while serving as Gordon Campbell’s deputy minister. Her report on trades training confirms what Campbell’s critics in the labour movement have long said: the government’s 10-year experiment with the Industry Training Authority is a rudderless mess. “Certain partners,
particularly organized labour, feel marginalized,” McDonald wrote. “Others, particularly employers and employers’ associations, do not feel heard within the system. Over the recent past, several new directions have been introduced such as de-regulation of trades and modular training that have caused strain because they were not fully inclusive during development, were seen to benefit single interests, and they impacted the whole system.” The ITA board is

being replaced, with union representation restored, and advisory councils from industrial employers will update their hiring needs. The B.C. Federation of Labour and the construction unions have all but abandoned the NDP after Adrian Dix’s disastrous pitch for urban anti-industry votes last year. B.C. Fed president Jim Sinclair was an early advocate for rescuing skilled trades from the second-class status they received in a culture fixated on university for two generations. That culture has created glaring problems. There are too many institutions offering the same courses. As with health care, block funding is handed out without any serious effort to measure the results. For many students, university has become an extension of adolescence, finding one’s self through philosophy or film studies. Employers get their share of blame from McDonald. Not only did they chop up trades training to make it cheaper to obtain, their preferred source of skilled workers has been to poach from other employers who paid to train them. Skills-based employment data will be made public for students to make career choices. Finally, students coming out of high school will have a way to assess what they can expect after $50,000 or more is spent on higher education. It’s about time.

Soil dumping bylaw passes NEW REGULATIONS DON’T GO FAR ENOUGH, CRITIC TELLS COUNCIL IN MARCH D AN F ERGUSO N Ti me s Re po r t e r
New rules to control landfills in Langley Township have been approved by council despite a less-than-enthusiastic assessment by a community activist who lobbied for a stricter alternative. Under the newly-amended bylaw and related policy, large soil deposit and removal applications must go through a petition process that allows owners of properties near a fill site to express support or opposition. Offenders face a fine and possible prison time, up to a maximum of $10,000 or three months in jail, or both. The policy and bylaw were put together with input from concerned residents, developers and law firm Bull Housser and Tupper. Before councillors voted to give final approval to the proposed regulations, it heard from Kevin Mitchell, speaking for a citizens’ group which he said spent “literally hundreds of hours” reviewing the issue. Mitchell said the new regulations are “seriously flawed,” only “marginally stronger” with “minimal penalties” for people who dump fill without a permit. Among his objections, Mitchell said the new regulations don’t require people applying for a dumping permit to provide a technical justification when they apply, something he called a “blatant omission.” Mitchell said the Township should use a waste transfer station to dispose of fill from construction sites and other excavations to fix what he described as a legacy of “poorly run fill sites” in Langley. Councillors Kim Richter and David Davis thought the Mitchell idea deserved study, but they couldn’t convince the rest of council to delay the vote until Township staff had a chance to review the notion. Known for his involvement in a campaign to limit the use of propane cannon noisemakers by local berry farms, Mitchell
New bylaw is seriously flawed . . marginally stronger. KEVIN MITCHELL
ran as an independent against incumbent Liberal MLA Rich Coleman in the 2013 provincial election, where the challenger finished last in a field of five. In an interview at the time, Mitchell said that while the cannon issue “was the impetus” behind his decision to run as an independent, his concerns also included dumping of landfill material and better management of development. In a written press release issued following the council vote approving the new landfill rules, Township soil enforcement officer Paul Albrecht said the revised bylaw “strikes a balance between giving residents input into proposals that may impact the neighbourhood and the broader community, while still providing an opportunity for a land owner to initiate a proposal that may improve their property.” The new regulations cover non-farm use soil deposit and removal applications. Fill proposals for land on protected farmland within the Agricultural Land Reserve (ALR) in Langley will still require approval of the provincial Agricultural Land Commission (ALC). “It is important that residents who wish to deposit on or remove soil from their property attain a permit from the Township,” Albrecht said. “We strongly encourage residents to contact the Township for information related to the bylaw and policy prior to initiating such work.” Over a three-year period, more than 100 applications were made for fill sites in Langley. Many residents have complained about illegal dumping, where ponds have been filled
in and setback requirements haven’t been respected. Albrecht said resi-
dents who suspect illegal dumping or excavating should call the Township Soil Hotline at 604532-7349 or the operations centre at 604-532-7300. For more information about soil deposit and removal within the township, visit tol. ca/soils. — with files from Black Press

Board OK’s Uplands Montessori expansion MO N I Q U E TA M M I N G A Ti m e s Re po r t e r
To cheers and clapping from around 20 parents in the audience, Langley board of education agreed to expand Uplands Montessori program from K to Grade 6. Uplands is the only public school in Langley offering Montessori. There are several private schools offering the individualized learning program. “It’s a hidden gem in our dis-
trict,” said Claire list for KindergarGuy, assistant suten with 44 chilperintendent of dren registered schools who gave for September at a presentation Uplands.

three empty classrooms. However, expanding the program to Grade 6, (it used to only go to Grade 5) will increase the population, Guy said. Montessori offers individualized learning, hands on, with teachers acting as facilitators not standing up in front of a class teaching. A global curriculum is taught and students are put in mutli-age groupings of three years, with the older students mentoring the young.
“But, because of the three year groupings, students were leaving the school and going back into private schools to finish the grouping to Grade 6,” said Guy. This year marks the 10th anniversary of the program at Uplands. The board will review the success and costs of expanding it to Grade 6 with a report back from staff next spring. Staff are also looking into expanding the Montessori program to Grade 7 and 8.
Kids Can Help approaching $60,000 With just a few weeks remaining until the B.C. Children’s Hospital Miracle Weekend telethon, a group of Langley youth are fast approaching their goal of raising $20,000. To do so, the Kids Can Help team has a pair of events scheduled for May. They will be hosting a fundraiser at the Great Escape in Langley (20645 Langley Bypass). The event will be held on May 12 from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. Tickets cost $21 and that includes admission, two activity choices — out of Air Trek, 3D mini-golf, and Laser Tag — a small drink and a choice of either pizza or a hot dog. There will also be a raffle, door prizes and a 50/50 draw. The group is also planning a coin drive at the Langley Wal-Mart later this month and the Kids Can Help team is approaching $60,000 raised since they began five years ago. It has been a bit of a different year for the Kids Can Help team as they have watched one of their own, Amy DeWolff, battle bone cancer. “Since Amy was diagnosed with cancer and watching (her) go through her treatment, it has taught me more about friendship, bravery, teamwork and what the Kids Can Help team is doing is even more important than ever,” said Thomas. DeWolff still attends most of the group’s meetings when she is able to and is feeling strong enough.

Councillor Charlie Fox said groups that get Township financial support should acknowledge the donation or lose the money.
NONPROFITS W ILL NOT BE REQ UIR ED TO PUB LIC LY ACKNOWLE DGE TOWNSHIP FIN AN CIA L SUPPO RT DA N F ERGUSO N Tim e s Re po r t e r
Langley Township council has rejected a proposed rule that would have required non-profit groups receiving Township of Langley grants to acknowledge the financial support or risk losing the money. It was the idea of Councillor Charlie Fox, who also wanted a better look at the groups’ behind-the-scenes activities. The groups should be required to acknowledge the financial support by “displaying the Township logo and appropriate wording” Fox argued, and also be required to list their current executive on their website, to invite Township council to their annual general
meetings and to provide a written record of the meeting that includes a financial statement. If a group doesn’t, they should be denied funding, Fox said. On Monday (April 14), a majority of council voted against the proposed new rules, with Councillor Kim Richter calling them “mean-spirited” and “vindictive.” Fox defended his proposal, saying when the Township gives money out, it should insist on accountability. Council then approved $357,725 in grants to non-profit organizations, including 79 community grants totaling $189,400 and 10 capital improvement grants totaling $63,825.

Blair Whitmarsh has joined the race for a Langley Township councillor’s seat in the November elections. Whitmarsh, Dean of the School of Human Kinetics and Athletics at Trinity Western University, first came to Langley as a student at Trinity 30 years ago and has many involvements in the community outside the university. He has been involved through youth soccer and Christian Life Assembly, and as part of his role at TWU, worked closely with the Township in the building of the Langley Events Centre. The facility is used extensively by TWU and has hosted national university athletic championships. He told The Times he brings his abilities as an educator, senior administrator, and mental skills coach to the table, coupled with his passion for the community. The theme for his campaign is “Working Together for Langley,” which signals his belief that all citizens of Langley should have a voice in the future shaping of the community. “A primary task of council is to raise community involvement so that Langley can continue to be a place that we are all proud of and want to raise our families,” said Whitmarsh. “We must

Her story is one of tragedy, personal health issues and broken dreams. It is also one of unimaginable courage and perseverance. While Patti Tubbs may no longer be able to saddle up and ride like she used to, the 48-year-old single mother surviving on a $900 disability pension, recently rode off into the sunset with a pretty nice award. The Abbotsford resident, who makes ends meet by delivering pizza and occasionally selling one of her racing-related photos at Hastings Racecourse, was honoured with the 2013 Jockey Club of Canada Sovereign Award in the photography media category presented in Toronto on April 11. Her winning entry — a candid shot of muddy-faced veteran jockey, Frank Fuentes, heading back to the winner’s circle after a victory at Hastings Racecourse — captures a frozen moment of victory. It’s a feeling Patti, herself, is still digesting. “I was absolutely shocked when I heard my name announced,” said Patti, who has been entering that particular awards category for the past three years and has been following Fuentes around for the past year to get her ‘perfect’ shot. “I did think the photo was one of my best ones, but winning was something I never expected. I still can’t really believe it.” The man in front of the lens is a big fan of the winning portrait, she adds. “Frank loved it — that pic just says I love my job, even in the mud. He has been a really good sport about letting me follow him around.” Despite being born without a hip socket, Patti

Patti Tubbs’ photo of muddy-faced Hastings Racecourse jockey Frank Fuentes earned the Aldergrove woman a national award. managed to work as a youngster in the barns at Hastings Racecourse for her mother Maureen, a respected trainer in a small stable. Patti’s father Gerry and brother Chris were outriders. It was 1999 when things turned upside down in the Tubbs’ family. Maureen was driving her minivan to work from their farm in Aldergrove when a speeding car ran a red light at Cassiar and Hastings Street, just minutes away from the racetrack. Maureen died at the scene. “It was a really tough time,” recalled Patti of the accident that turned her entire world upside

Tubbs, left, was accompanied by her daughter Amanda when she went to Toronto to accept her award. down. “I was struggling both emotionally and physically. I had 37 surgeries, 34 of them on my legs. I simply couldn’t continue doing physical work at the racetrack anymore but there was no way I was going to give up the life I loved, being around horses and the people in the industry.” Rather than abandon the race track, which has been a second home for Patti for most of her life, she discovered a whole new appreciation for the horses and the people in the industry behind the lens of her daughter’s unused camera.
“I bought a camera for my daughter (Amanda)— she wanted to take photography at school,” she said. “It didn’t pan out, so I picked it up and started snapping shots during morning workouts and eventually trainers, owners, jockeys, grooms and hot walkers began supporting me by purchasing them.” Gerry, who was watching online from his home at 100 Mile house, was the first to call and congratulate her on her victory. “My dad was jumping up and down and scared his dog,” she laughed. “He was really proud of me…. I think we were both crying, I don’t remember.” Joining Patti in person at the awards dinner was Amanda, 20, who works as a server for Boston Pizza in Aldergrove. The two made the 3,300-km trip from Vancouver to Toronto — it was only the second time the two had ever been on an airplane. To help the women make the trek, a horse owner who doesn’t wish to be identified donated the airfare for Patti, while other contributions from Hastings horsemen helped cover hotel and food costs. “It was so nice to have her there with me — she is my best friend,” said Patti. “It wouldn’t have happened without so many of my friends at Hastings helping out with the funding.” In addition to the award, a race on opening day at Hastings Racecourse last Sunday (April 26) has been designated in her name. “We all want Patti to know how proud we are of her accomplishments,” said Hastings Racecourse general manager Darren MacDonald. “Patti is the first photographer from Western Canada to win a Sovereign Award and the first female winner since 1985.” Not having her own mother around to help celebrate her accomplishment, hasn’t been easy for Patti. However, she takes comfort in knowing she’d be delighted. “She would have given me a big hug and cried with me… I know she’d be very proud.”

Living in Harmony in Richmond with Townline By Kerry Vital
Incredible value, an amazing location and gorgeous homes combine in perfect balance at Harmony, a condominium project in Richmond from Townline Homes. “One of the major selling features of Harmony is its extremely central location,” says Chris Colbeck, vice-president of sales and marketing for Townline. “Owners will be within easy walking distance of Richmond Centre, dozens of
restaurants, elementary and secondary schools, several parks, and the Brighouse SkyTrain Station. Yet, we’re off the flight path and away from heavy traffic, so it’s more peaceful and less congested.” The interiors are luxurious in their own right, with beautiful kitchens featuring stainless-steel appliances, quartz countertops and square-edge flat-panel cabinetry, and relaxing bathrooms with an oversized soaker tub and hand-set large-format polished porcelain floor tiles.
Homeowners will have several amenities on-site, including a 15,000-square-foot landscaped rooftop with a trellised zen garden, children’s play area, barbecue area and gated dog run, among many other things. Other amenities include a lounge with kitchenette, a games area and a fitness room. For more information, visit www.harmonyrichmond, stop by the discovery centre at 7180 No. 3 Road or call 604-278-3939.
NEW HOME DEVELOPMENT
Submitted photos
StreetSide Developments’ South Point Walk will be just steps from South Point Exchange and High Street, making it extremely convenient. Among the beautiful features in the homes are wide-plank laminate flooring, stainless-steel appliances and recessed pot lighting in the kitchen.
Beauty and convenience at South Point Walk By Kerry Vital
Curb appeal and a fantastic neighbourhood are just two of the many reasons why South Point Walk, built by StreetSide Developments, is garnering serious buzz in South Surrey. “This is such a great, unique location,” says Vanessa Isler, marketing and sales manager for Streetside, a division of Qualico. “It’s an urban feel in a suburban location.” South Point Walk is just steps from shopping and dining at South Point Exchange, as well as the boutiques at High Street. “There will be a walking path directly from South Point Walk to High Street,” says Isler. Homeowners will also have easy access to the U.S. border and Highway 99. Schools, golf courses and other leisure and recreation opportunities are also just minutes away. The convenient location is artfully woven into a beautifully landscaped enclave. “There’s a lot of accessibility here,” Isler says. “It’s a nice balance.” The first phase at South Point Walk will include 42 condominium homes, ranging
from 689 to 1,090 square feet. Every home includes a dedicated home office or flex/work space. Buyers will be able to take possession of their new home in November. The second phase, with 76 condos and 30 townhomes, will be released later. The exterior is distinctive and welcoming, with West Coast contemporary architecture featuring bold roof lines, cedar shingles, arched brick accents and large timber brackets, and large balconies. Ground floor homes have spacious patios and direct access to green space. “StreetSide, working with Gannon Ross Designs, has really gone above and beyond on the finishings,” says Isler. “There are nine-foot ceilings on all four floors; usually you would only see them on the ground or top floor homes. They really add to the airiness of the space.” A gourmet kitchen features classic shakerstyle cabinetry and a solid eased square-edge Quartzite countertop with a full-height ceramic tile backsplash. Stainless-steel appliances are complemented by a custom backsplash accent behind the range in either solid slab granite or marble mosaic tile. The custom-designed kitchen island in some homes is a masterstroke of convenience, and recessed pot lighting and undercabinet task lighting perfectly illuminates the space. Wide-plank laminate flooring is included throughout the main living areas, with lush
cut and loop carpeting in the bedrooms. Bathrooms are straight out of a spa, with solid slab granite or Quartzite countertops and undermount basin sinks. The ensuite features contemporary flat panel cabinetry, infloor heating and a hand-set ceramic tile tub or shower surround with marble tile accent. The second bathroom, where applicable, has shaker-style cabinetry and a deep soaker tub.
Homeowners at South Point Walk will have the use of a community garden, outdoor barbecue area and a trellised seating area with gas firepit. Inside, amenities include a fitness room and a social lounge with kitchenette. Homes start at $233,900. For more information, visit www.southpointwalk. ca, call 604-560-3238 or email sales@ southpointwalk.ca.

Drinking Water Week: May 4 –10 How well do you know your drinking water? Where does your drinking water come from? In Township communities, about half comes from our local groundwater supplies and the other half is supplied by the Coquitlam watershed. How much water does the Township use each year? Township residents and businesses use 12.8 million cubic metres of water every year! That’s equivalent to filling 5,120 Olympic sized swimming pools. Which room in the house typically uses the most water? About 65 per cent of water used in our homes is in bathrooms (showers, baths, toilets). For more information on how to conserve and protect your drinking water and become more Water Wise, visit tol.ca/waterwise.

The
The final Langley Township council vote on the revised Coulter Berry project took less than a minute. It was approved at the Township council meeting last week (April 28) with councillors David Davis and Bob Long opposed. Work on the controversial Fort Langley building had actually resumed the previous week, under a site servicing permit that was granted before work stopped last year. That permit covers preparation work like drilling geothermal wells under the parkade and completing excavation and shoring, The excavated site became known as the “heritage hole” after a judge ruled the building was improperly approved by a variance allowing it to exceed size limits for the area, and ruled a rezoning was required. After a public hearing that lasted three days, council voted to approve the necessary rezoning and a modified, slightly smaller version of the building.

Body shops honoured Tire collection part of grand opening celebration at OK Tire
PRESTIGIOUS AWARDS FOR PAIR OF LANGLEY AUTO BODY SHOPS A pair of Langley auto body shops have been recognized for their outstanding customer service. On Line Collision Ltd. and Craftsman Collision Langley both received the prestigious AutocheX Premier Achiever Awards last week. AutocheX is a third party company that measures customer satisfaction levels for body shops through surveys. Altogether, 15 ICBC facilities were among those who achieved customer satisfaction scores in the top five per cent of the thousands of participating shops
Since it began in 1991, 65 million tires have been collected as part of Tire Stewardship BC’s Tire Round Up program. And all those tires are then recycled with the rubber used for items such as athletic tracks, synthetic turf fields, garden pavers, walkways, playgrounds and much more. And on Saturday, local residents can bring any old tires
across North America. Scores are based on key award criteria such as the shop’s ability to keep customers informed, complete repairs on time and provide efficient, safe and quality repairs. “We’re proud that 15 of our collision repair partners have been recognized for the excellent service they provide to customers through the 2013 AutocheX awards,� said Brian Jarvis, ICBC’s vice president of claims. “Providing good customer service is a priority for ICBC and we’re pleased that these shops share the same values, while also providing safe, high-quality repairs.�
that may be cluttering up their property to the OK Tire in Walnut Grove (19926 96 Ave.) as part of the program. The program offers a free disposal option for consumers. Approximately 37,000 tonnes of scrap tires are collected annually, which is equivalent to about one car tire per person. The round-up is part of the grand opening celebration at

Bond increased by competitive nature
CHARLENE JANZEN AND HER DAUGHTER TAYLOR MAY HAVE A CLOSE RELATIONSHIP, BUT ALL BETS ARE OFF WHEN THE RACE STARTS GARY AH U J A Ti m e s Spo r t s
Like most mothers and their daughters, there is a close bond between Taylor Janzen and her mother, Charlene. “We have a really good relationship,” explained Taylor. “I would call my mom my best friend, she is always there to provide me support and is someone I can talk to.” The pair have been training together for the past year and a half, and along with father/husband Andrew Janzen, the trio ran the Vancouver Sun Run on April 27. It was Taylor’s first time doing the famed run, while Charlene has done it about four times. And the pair started together, but with thousands of runners pounding the pavement, they became separated.
And this is where the mother/daughter bond turns from love and friendship to a little bit of competitive fire. “That was kind of a bummer (that we got separated) because we are both pretty competitive,” admitted Taylor. “And it was one of those things were I really wanted to beat her. “That is just both of our competitive natures.” Mom agrees. “We run a lot together, although she is the one who has improved a lot and I am always scared she is going to beat me,” said Charlene with a laugh. “But it will definitely happen.” Taylor, who turns 18 this summer, was second in the female 16 to 18 division with a time of 42:45. There were 2,018 runners in her category. Charlene, who is 41,
was seventh in the female 40 to 44 division with a time of 41:30. This was out of 1,249 runners. “She was going to try and keep up with me and I knew she would be close, but with that amount of people, you don’t know,” Charlene said. The pair train about five times a week and — schedule-permitting — run together two or three times. That included last Friday (May 2) a Pro-D day for Taylor, who decided to take advantage of a day off school to get up at 6 a.m. to go on a run with her mother. Taylor is set to graduate from Langley Fundamental next month and plans to study nursing at Trinity Western University. And with her daughter set to move out, Charlene has enjoyed the increased bond

forged between the pair as they train together. “We are pretty close, but it is a real privilege that she actually wants to run with me,” Charlene said, “We have always been pretty close, but I definitely think running has brought us closer,” Taylor added. “It has been a lot of fun running with her and being outside is always nice.” Prior to taking up running, Taylor spent 10 years competing competitively with Langley’s Flip City Gymnastics. She then focused on volleyball, both at the high school level and the club level with Altruista Volleyball Club. Both mother and daughter have competed locally with the Langley Train Run Series and with runs through Peninsula Runners and the New Year’s Resolution Run. Taylor said she loves the adrenalin rush from competing at a race. The pair will now switch their focus to training for the Lulu Lemon SeaWheeze half marathon at the end of August. A half marathon is on Taylor’s bucket list, and she also said that one day she hopes to complete the Boston Marathon, something her mom did in 2012. As they do every year on Mother’s Day, the Janzen family — which also includes 22-yearold Alex, a high level competitive rower — will go on a hike, or something outdoors.

Stafford Skyhawks’ Ehsher Washington is wrapped up by an Abbotsford Huskies tackler during Grade 8 boys playoff action at Stafford Middle School last week (May 1). The Skyhawks won the game 35-26 behind three tries from Andrew Schwartz, who was named man of the match. Stafford plays in Abbotsford today (Thursday) against the Fraser Falcons in the Upper Fraser Valley championship game. They will also host an opening round game of the Fraser Valley championships at Stafford on May 13.
Pearse wins Wheeler
Anastasia Pearse won both a gold medal as well as the 2014 Wheeler Award at the National Christian College Athletic Association championships in Rome, Georgia. The three-day meet was held at Shorter University. The Wheeler Award is presented for excellence in academics and athletics as well as possessing a Christian character on and off the track. Pearse, who has a 3.75 GPA, is the director of the Crestwell Leadership Camp, which is a camp focused on mentoring young women to understand their potential and to help them develop into leaders and role
models. She helps co-ordinate the team of leaders who are involved and leads in promoting and building the camp’s programs. She also recently got her bus driver’s license so she can be a volunteer driver for Redeemer Pacific College. She helps drive students to church and coordinates trips for students to conferences, while also helping to connect the college to the community. Pearse is also on the organizing committee for an upcoming service trip to Ethiopia, which will include a number of athletes from the TWU track and field teams. Continued Page 38

Blaze burn Blue Jays Two RBIs apiece from Justin Lawrence, Liam Wyatt and Andre Pelletier helped the Langley Blaze to a 14th straight win as they pounded the visiting North Delta Blue Jays 9-2. The two U18 B.C. Premier Baseball League teams were playing at McLeod Park on Tuesday evening with Langley improving to a league-best 14-1 while the Blue Jays fell to a league-worst 1-8 record. Wyatt finished with four hits —
All-stars for Comets
including a pair of doubles — and three runs scored. On the mound, Jonathan Keltie went five innings, allowing two runs and striking out four. Kristjan Storrie and Cooper Misic each tossed a perfect inning of relief with a strikeout apiece. Up next for the Blaze is a weekend trip to Victoria. The team plays a doubleheader against the Mariners (8-2) on May 10 and two more against the Eagles (6-4) on May 11.
Zach Mihic and Aaron Dick have landed spots on the North Star Athletic Association allconference baseball team. The Langley duo — who played with the Langley Blaze Premier program — are junior baseball players with the Mayville State Comets in North Dakota. Mihic hit .298 with eight doubles and 31 RBIs and an on-base percentage of .411 this past season. He also won a Gold Glove at the catcher position. Dick went 10-1 with an earned run average of 2.44 and his 10 victories had him tied for eighth in the country among NAIA baseball teams.
0-3 start for Jr. Thunder Goal-scoring continues to be a problem for the Langley Junior Thunder. The Thunder dropped their third straight game to start the B.C. Junior A Lacrosse League season, falling 15-4 to the New Westminster Junior
Salmonbellies (3-0) on Tuesday night at Queen’s Park Arena in New West. Langley has scored just a dozen goals in their first three games. Brett Dobray scored a pair of goals in the losing effort while Tyler Rutherford and
James Rahe had the other scores. Rahe finished with four points. The Thunder are back in action tonight (Thursday) when they host the Burnaby Junior Lakers (0-2). Game time is 8 p.m. at the Langley Events Centre.

DRIVING MADE EASIER
OF THE WEEK:
Then we bypassed Kelowna and headed for Beaverdell, admiring the evidence of the now defunct historic Kettle Valley railway. Then the chilling hail hit but a single glass of beer at Rock Creek restored us us. We weaved our way north along the valley, through wine country, to Penticton. “Piece of cake,” said George the next day as he looked at the route to Hope. The winding back road trail to Princeton was a joy but the last stretch home was not. First, we were hit by snow, then hail that numbed our faces as we descended from Manning Park. I thought I had made a significant anatomical discovery when it appeared that the icy wind blasting up my right nostril seemed to exit through my left ear. Of course, it could have been the hole in the left side of my helmet. There was one other little challenge. The panel failed so I had to peer at my handheld GPS to figure out what speed we were doing then shout at the top of my voice when George exceeded the posted limit. We made it safe and sound. “Next year, Sid?” “I’ll get back to you, George.” keith.morgan@drivewaybc.ca

It might cost you a few extra dollars to run a bike’s VIN through a trusted database but can save you multiple headaches in the end. It will show if the bike has been in any reported accidents and detail the damage. It’ll also show if there is money owing on the bike or if it was reported stolen. Keep in mind, if the bike is from out of the country, the record likely won’t show. When I went to buy my first bike, I had my heart set on a beautiful Yamaha R6. It looked brand new and perfect. The seller said it had never been in any accidents and had all original parts. I left thinking that the next day I’d be riding this beauty home. However, I paid my $20 (at
the time) and found out the bike had been in two accidents with damage costs of more than $3,000. If you’re buying through a dealership, they might even have the bike’s history on hand for you. It never hurts to double check. The Myth of Displacements Many new riders like to set a cap on the cc displacement they’re willing to get for their first bike. I had a reader write me asking what he should get. He’s 6’2”, 220 pounds and had long limbs. He didn’t want anything higher than a 250cc though. I asked him why. He said he wanted something manageable for his first bike. With long arms and legs, a 250cc bike wasn’t going to fit him! Or vice versa. I told
him to look at cruisers, like the Harley-Davidson Sportster, Honda Shadow, Suzuki Boulevard S40, Yamaha Bolt. They might have a higher displacement but they’re going to be easy to manage and work much better with his body. What did he buy? A used 2006 Honda Shadow 750cc. And he loves it. I recommend buying a bike that you are comfortable on, both physically and mentally. Test Rides Private sellers won’t generally let you test ride, but ask. Dealers are more open to this, especially with newer models because they have demo fleets.
Mechanical Inspection If you’re buying used, and you are this close to making the decision, before you go to the bank and give up your savings, spend an extra $100-$200 to get a motorcycle mechanic to look at your potential purchase. Private sellers will generally ride the bike down to a location of your choice and let the mechanic work their magic. The mechanic will then let you know what things might need to be worked on in the near or distant future. If the seller thinks it’s too much work, then it’s your call if you want to continue to work with them. I wouldn’t buy a bike without knowing what I’m getting into. alexandra.straub@drivewaybc.ca

CHALMERS, Bill May 27, 1943 - May 2, 2014. It is with sadness that we announce the passing of William Thomas (Bill) Chalmers and yet it is a joy to celebrate the wonderful life of an extraordinary man who will be dearly missed. We admire the courage with which he faced his battle with cancer over the past 2.5 years - he truly made the best of his life during this time. Bill always enjoyed hiking, nature, his dogs, exotic plants, his garden, the sweet peas and of course his dear friends, his sisters and their families. Bill grew up in Point Grey, Vancouver. As a teen he received a scholarship with the air cadets to get his pilots license and won numerous awards at school. Graduating from UBC with a BSc and going on to share his passions, Bill moved out to the Fraser Valley in the 1980s and started his business: Western Biologicals. He was admired and respected in the fields of biochemistry and mushroom propagation and education and was a member of the Vancouver Mycological Society. Bill enjoyed travel and adventure: he drove to Central America in the old family car in the 1960’s and traveled again throughout his life to the USA, Vietnam, Taiwan, South America, Peru and China. His most recent trip was to Phoenix, Arizona to explore the botanical diversity of the desert. He was always available to help others with their problems - he cared deeply about his friends, family and community. Bill also made substantial donations to the BC Cancer Society, Surrey Memorial Hospital and the Air Cadets. A Celebration of Life Memorial Tea will be held this Saturday, May 10, 2014, 1-3pm with a formal time to share tributes and stories - at 2pm. Coghlan Community Hall: 6795-256th Street, Aldergrove All are welcome. Contact Carolyn at 604-856-3339 or elizabethbeeds@gmail.com for more info.
