Judge reserves decision on Figueroa MONIQUE TAM M ING A Tim es R eport er
José Figueroa will have to wait a little bit longer to know whether a decision to deport him will be sent back to Immigration for a new review. The federal court in Vancouver was standing room only, packed with supporters of Figueroa and his family, while José listened in to the lengthy proceedings over the telephone. Outside, dozens of people held up banners in support of the Langley father of three. Figueroa sought sanctuary more than eight months ago, inside the Walnut Grove Lutheran Church, after the Canadian Border Service Agency issued an arrest warrant for him, ordering that he be deported back to El Salvador. Judge Richard Mosley reserved his decision about whether the Ministry of Citizenship and Immigration must take another look at exempting Figueroa from deportation on compassionate and humanitarian grounds. “I feel optimistic,” said Figueroa’s wife, Ivana, after the hearing. “I believe the judge will take into account our children in his decision.” She said moving back to El Salvador is not an option and the family will continue to fight to stay in Canada — their home. Figueroa’s lawyer Peter Edelmann argued that the original officer who denied Figueora permission to stay in Canada on compassionate grounds in 2010 didn’t have access to his entire file, which included two previous officers’ recommendations that he be able to stay in the country.

Surrey woman, 43, charged in bus attack MONIQUE TAMMINGA Times Reporter
A 43-year-old Surrey woman is in jail facing numerous charges after threatening a mother of three with a knife and then physically assaulting her two toddlers on board the 502 bus on Tuesday, May 20. The violent encounter included the suspect, Leah Susan MacKay, allegedly kicking the victim’s two-year-old in the back and throwing a drink in a baby’s face while the boy was in a stroller on a bus that stopped at Willowbrook Shopping Centre. The mother came to the defense of her children, punching the suspect while the bus was moving. The disturbing physical
altercation was videotaped and uploaded to YouTube by another passenger. Around 10:20 a.m., the 43-year-old suspect and the bus driver began arguing over non-payment of the fare. The suspect was swearing profusely, causing the mother of three along with other passengers to ask her to stop using that language. There were several children on the bus in addition to the victim’s own three children, said Langley RCMP. The suspect threatened to kill the mother and her children before throwing a drink at the youngest child, confirm police. The two women began to fight, with the mother punching the suspect repeatedly

and swearing profusely. The bus driver escorted the first woman from the bus. The mother also left, and began walking toward Willowbrook Shopping Centre with her children. That’s when the Surrey woman ran after the victim and produced a knife, knocked over the woman’s four-year-old daughter and kicked her other daughter, age two, in the back, said Cpl. Holly Marks. Once officers were called about the attack, the suspect’s description was broadcast to police in the area. A Surrey RCMP officer recognized the description as someone he had dealings with in the past, attended her home and arrest-
ed her. She was held in custody overnight and appeared in Surrey Provincial Court Wednesday afternoon. On Thursday, police announced that MacKay was charged with two counts of assault with a weapon, one count of assault, and one count of uttering threats. She was ordered kept in custody. She has been charged with two counts of assault, one count of assault with a weapon and one count of uttering threats. She remains in jail. The incident has attracted enormous public interest from near and far. A post of The Times’ story on Facebook had attracted more than 11,000 views, as of Monday.

BC SPCA to recommend cruelty charges against dog walker FR AN K B U C H O LT Z Tim e s Re po r t e r
The BC SPCA announced Monday it will be recommending charges of animal cruelty against a dog walker, after six dogs died in her care on May 13. Dubbed the “Brookswood Six” by many media outlets, the dogs were initially reported stolen from the Brookswood dog walking park by dog walker Emma Paulsen. After a massive search effort
and fundraising to assist in the search, on Sunday, May 18, she admitted that the dogs had died after being left in her vehicle on a hot day. At that time, she said that the dogs had died in Richmond. Their bodies were found in an Abbotsford ditch, before being reclaimed for the necropsies. The BC SPCA is still completing its report, which will be submitted to Crown counsel within the next few weeks.
Marcie Moriarty, chief prevention and enforcement officer for the BC SPCA, said enough evidence has been obtained in the investigation so far to warrant a recommendation for separate charges of animal cruelty for each of the six dogs under the Criminal Code of Canada. “Obviously the ultimate decision about whether or not charges will be laid rests with Crown counsel, but the preliminary necropsy results and other evidence gath-
ered in our investigation so far supports our recommendation,” said Moriarty. She said that the SPCA could not discuss further details of the case at this point, but would be submitting its full report to Crown counsel as quickly as possible. The BC SPCA investigates nearly 8,000 complaints of animal abuse and neglect each year, under provincial legislation that gives it the power to do so.

Both those immigration officers argued in 2002 and again in 2006 that his minimal affiliation with the FMLN wasn’t a security concern. Edelmann argued that the deciding immigration officer “paid lip service” to the issues at hand, including the 12 years the case stood open and that three children were born in Canada in that time, one of whom is autistic. At times, the judge struggled to understand the deciding officer’s decision to deny Figueroa an exemption. “Is there any evidence the FMLN is a listed terror organization?” asked Mosley. The lawyer for the Ministry of Citizenship and Immigration, Caroline Christiaens, replied ‘no.’ “The officer can’t simply say the FMLN is an organization that did terrorist attacks. The officer has to go beyond that to explain.” Mosley then questioned whether Canada would find all 100,000 members of the FMLN inadmissible to the country. She replied that “parliament has decided no exemptions.” Mosley noted that under those guidelines Nelson Mandela wouldn’t have been admissible to Canada, nor hundreds of thousands with him. “The evidence suggests to me he is not a security risk nor a criminal,” said Mosley,

Langley Community Farmers Market vendors are once again inviting you to “fill your basket and feed your soul.” The courtyard of Kwantlen Polytechnic University’s Langley campus was bustling on Wednesday afternoon, with the return of the annual farmers market. Vendors’ stands lined the central plaza, offering visitors a wide selection of locally-produced fare, from hearty breads and delicate pastries to gourmet cheeses, specialty meat products, chocolate, honey, jam, fragrant soap, plants and flowers and, of course, plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables. The market, which also features live entertainment each week, will be open every Wednesday afternoon — rain or shine— from 2 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. until early October. But opening day is always special, said Angie Quaale, president of the farmers market board. During a brief opening ceremony held amidst the stalls as eager shoppers went about their business, Quaale remarked that she is happy to see the market filled with “awesome vendors and food producers.” She praised the market’s new manager, Benedict Canale, for making that happen. A local farmers market offers shoppers the unique opportunity to learn everything there is to know about the food they choose to buy, eat and feed their families, she said. “Get to know (the vendors) and understand where your food comes from.” The farmers market is “one of the rites of spring,” said Jane Fee, principal of KPU’s Langley campus, as she welcomed the vendors and shoppers back to the university, where the market has been held ever since it began five years ago. “It’s a wonderful opportunity to showcase local produce, baking, arts and crafts,” she said. Speaking on behalf of the Township of Langley, Councillor Charlie Fox urged shoppers to give local growers and suppliers the support they need to continue their work. The agricultural land reserve makes up 78 per cent of the Township’s land mass, noted Fox. “This is what it’s all about.”

RCMP officer won’t be charged over order to civilian OFFICER ORDERED BYSTANDER TO STOP PERFORMING CPR ON MAN WHO LATER DIED No charges will be laid against a Langley RCMP officer who told a civilian to stop performing CPR on a man who had experienced a medical event while driving. The Criminal Justice Branch issued a written statement on Monday about the Sept. 22, 2013 incident, saying it “has concluded there is no substantial likelihood that the police officer who was subject to investigation would be convicted of any potential offence arising from the circumstances.� The Independent Investigations Office (IIO), the civilian agency that handles complaints against police, launched an investigation after one person complained the Langley officer ordered the civilian to stop
performing CPR on the driver. Shortly after 3 p.m. on Sept. 22, 2013, an adult male driver experienced a medical event and subsequently crashed his vehicle into a building on 204 Street in Langley. Around 3:15 p.m., a civilian witness began to administer Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) based on his own training as a Level 2 First Aid attendant, and on the directions of the B.C. Ambulance Service emergency operator. He was ordered to halt by a Langley RCMP officer who arrived on the scene, checked the driver’s neck for a pulse and assessed the driver’s breathing by placing his hand over the driver’s face.
“The available evidence indicates that the driver appeared to be breathing at the time the officer attended to him,� the statement said. “The officer instructed the civilian to stop performing CPR, and there was a disagreement between the officer and civilian as to whether CPR should be stopped.� The investigation found that the driver was without medical intervention for a period of approximately 20 to 90 seconds until firefighters arrived and commenced doing CPR. The driver was airlifted to hospital and declared dead at 4:41 pm. “The available evidence indicates that the officer believed the driver was breath-
e e r Fsunglasses
ing, based on his assessment of the patient’s vital signs, and that the officer believed firefighters were arriving at scene and should take over patient care from the civilian,� the statement said. “As the driver was believed to be breathing, the officer may have understood him to be “beginning to respond� which, from the officer’s training, is a basis for discontinuing CPR.� To charge the officer with “Impeding an attempt to save life,� a prosecutor “would have to prove that the officer, without reasonable cause, prevented or impeded, or attempted to prevent or impede, another person who was attempting to save a life.�

Greenhouse worker dies DA N FERGU SO N Tim e s Re po r t e r
An employee of a Langley greenhouse suffered a fatal head injury in an apparent fall from a ladder Thursday afternoon (May 22). It happened around 4 p.m. at
Glenwood Valley Farms, a 14.5 acre greenhouse operation, which grows cucumbers, eggplants and peppers in the 21100 block of 24 Avenue. The initial report by WorkSafe B.C. said the worker was discovered unresponsive at the bot-
tom of a ladder. The name, age and gender of the worker was not disclosed due to privacy regulations. The WorkSafe B.C. Fatal and Serious Injury Investigation Team is reviewing the incident.
Bait car suspect sought DA N FERGU SO N Tim e s Re po r t e r
Whoever the man caught on video is, he probably didn’t realize he was stealing from a bait car. Not until now, that is. Langley RCMP have released
a picture of the suspect who stole from a vehicle parked in the Brookswood area on May 19, taking a laptop and a handheld PlayStation game. Anyone with infor-
S U SP EC T
mation that would assist police with this investigation, is asked to call Langley RCMP at 604-532-3200. To remain anonymous, call CrimeStoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS.
Drug trafficking conviction upheld A “to do” note with the caretaker of a marijuana grow-op in Langley’s name on it was at the centre of a losing appeal in court on May 8. Christina Marie Black had been convicted of production and possession of marijuana for the purpose of trafficking, after being arrested at a growop on a Langley property her
fiance owned. The trial included evidence of the police search warrant finding marijuana, equipment and a “to do” note left for Black in one of the outbuildings containing the grow-op. Black was seen by officers leaving one of the buildings that housed a grow-op. In appeal court, Black ar-
gued that the note shouldn’t have been accepted as circumstantial evidence because the note was addressed to “Chrissy.” The judge took that to be Black. Three judges of the B.C. Court of Appeal agreed the note was acceptable as evidence, and Black’s conviction was upheld.

Langley students are out of school today, thanks to a rotating strike by teachers, as the contract dispute with the provincial government continues. This is unacceptable for everyone involved — students, teachers, parents, school districts and the provincial government. The two sides need to compromise far more than they have thus far. Teachers have some very legitimate concerns about the makeup of their classes and the extra demands being placed on them by continuing shifts in education policy. The government does have significant budgeting challenges, and teachers need to modify their wage demands significantly. Most importantly, both sides need to really focus on students, and not just pay lip service to the concept. Strikes, even of one day’s duration, impact education. The B.C. Teachers Federation has said there will be other rotating strikes, and this is simply unacceptable. Yet the province claims that depriving students of an education is not acceptable, but is prepared, through the employers’ association, to lock out teachers at the end of the school year. The association has issued a directive that limits student-teacher contact. This is no better. Education is more essential than it has ever been. The global nature of the economy means that B.C. students will be competing with students from all parts of the world as they leave the school system. They will be competing for spaces in post-secondary institutions, and for jobs. Holding up their progress, for months or even years, due to a labour dispute will do immeasurable damage to their future prospects.

Answer online at www.langleytimes.com
The recent pleasant temperatures in Greater Victoria have prompted many people to haul their bicycles out of the storage shed and put on a few extra kilometres. With Bike to Work Week upon us — it officially runs Monday to Sunday (May 26 to June 1) — now is the opportunity to test your stamina and your travel route into town from the West Shore. Colwood Councillor Judith Cullington, who regularly bikes down to city hall from her home, was cheerily on the losing end of the Greater Victoria Bike to Work Week commuter challenge on Wednesday against cyclist Randy Scott. The pair started from Colwood Corners and made their way to the Starbucks at Blanshard and Fort Streets downtown. Scott got there in a cool 24 minutes, edging Cullington by a few minutes. He was one of 17 cyclists, including a perfect threefor-three who started from the West Shore, who finished ahead of their driving counterparts. The drivers also had to find parking at the end of the route and only six won the race. The annual test is a way to show commuters heading downtown that if traffic tie-ups are your biggest complaint, jumping on the bike and cruisin’ down the Galloping Goose — if you live on the West Shore — is an option to consider. It’s a chance to have fun, get some exercise, save a few bucks or more on gas. This year’s 20th annual event will see more than 550 teams participating. No doubt more than a few individuals will make the switch and figure out ways to make cycling more a part of their daily routine. According to Victoria’s Vital Signs, 5.9 per cent of commuters did so on their bike in 2011, compared to 1.3 per cent nationally. Then again, we cycle more often because we can. For people using the Goose to get into town from the West Shore, why not give yourself a little pat on the back for taking a green and heathy initiative? A Bike to Work Week celebration station with goodies will be set up on Tuesday, May 27 from 4 to 6 p.m. on the trail, opposite the entrance to Royal Roads. You don’t have to be Ryder Hesjedal out there, just enjoy the fresh air and exercise. — Victoria News

Students are merely pawns
Editor: This is an open letter to Premier Christy Clark and the B.C. Teachers Federation. The parents of B.C. have recently been informed that our public school teachers are going on rotating strikes, beginning May 26. This means that each school district will be on strike for an entire day, and consequently, many parents will be scrambling to find child care services to cover for this day of absence. Fortunately, I work from home and don’t have this extra worry when my son’s school in Langley goes on strike on Tuesday, May 27. BCTF president Jim Iker has recently stated that more strikes may take place, if nothing is settled by this week.
This ongoing battle between our government and teachers’ federation has one group of losers — our students. Of particular concern are the high school students who are gearing up for final exams. B.C. students have become mere chess pawns in this vicious game where neither side wishes to concede. And yet, both sides at this crucial point in time must make certain concessions in order to reach a resolution. So please, Premier Clark and President Iker of the BCTF, put on your thinking caps, and for the sake of our children, sit down and resolve this mess immediately. CARA DE ST. REMY, LANGLEY
Sound bites don’t do justice Editor: As a mother of four sons who were raised on public education, B.C.-style, and a special education teacher of 30 years, I believe I speak from an informed position on the current state of affairs in B.C. It is easy to lose sight of what is at stake when so much attention and energy is caught up in partial facts devoid of historical context, inflammatory rhetoric, and divisive strategy. Quite simply, public education is about democracy. It’s about tolerance, understanding, patience, equal opportunity, and community. These qualities are quickly eroding under the current conditions in schools. It’s kind of like the polar ice cap with global warming. I was walking the picket line on Monday because of this. I encounter, daily, the inequalities that our children face, and I work very hard to level the playing field. We teachers are burning out, folks. It is becoming increasingly difficult to inspire, to assure our kids that the world is navigable, that it holds
promise. Inequity, from the minute these children enter school, becomes their life narrative. They deserve better. They deserve resources, attention, care, and passionate teachers who are equipped to support them in their dreams. I’ll remind you that the B.C. Supreme Court affirmed this, in a recent court ruling. Government has chosen to appeal this. How many times and different ways must children’s rights be described before they get it? I speak from the heart-wrenching perspective of the front lines. I have countless tragic stories to share, but the main point is this: if you choose to inform yourself about the current state of affairs in public education in B.C. via sound bites and political rhetoric, you are like a blind man describing the elephant based on how the trunk feels in your hand. Join us on the picket line, and let’s talk. ELAINE KRISTIANSEN, MISSION
Anonymous tree advocate Editor: I openly advocate under my real identity for private property rights and freedoms, in this case to own and have control of our trees, part of our rural acreage land that we live and pay taxes on. Who is the elusive Anna R? She appears before council as a delegate with her video presentations, without revealing her name and address as everyone else must do. If you are a sincere advocate, you should have the courage to identify yourself rather than hiding behind a nom de plume. This raises questions and suspicions. Is she an imported and paid protest campaigner? Anti-progress advocate Ann-Michelle DeReus of urban Brookswood claims to be Anna R’s friend, defends her points and covers for her identity. Sorry, but this doesn’t cut it.
Councillor Bob Long said the images of a logging truck and a bird’s nest (from a different area) was convincing enough to flip-flop and vote against private property rights. So now we have a repressive bylaw with government-seized trees based on an elusive Power Point presenter who won’t give her full name and address. I doubt that Long would overreact to PETA images of cows being slaughtered, and limit the number of steaks Bob’s Bar N’ Grill can serve. I doubt that Councillor David Davis (Davistead Farms) would consent and vote to reduce his milk quota, based on some negative images of mad cow disease, but they have no problem limiting the number of trees we can selectively reduce.

The public transit needs of Langley and other communities south of the Fraser River boundary could be overlooked in the rush to develop a new regional transit plan for the Lower Mainland, Township councillors are complaining. Councillor Charlie Fox triggered an avalanche of complaints when he predicted the current planning process will give too much attention to the Vancouver campaign for another underground rapid transit line. “South of the Fraser is going to lose out to a subway on Broadway,” Fox said. The issue that provoked the Fox complaint and equally unhappy follow-up remarks from other council members was the presentation of a report on regional transit needs at the Monday, May 12 meeting. The report was generated by the city of Surrey for a TransLink’s mayors’ council which is trying to develop a transit funding proposal by a June 30 deadline set by the provincial government. The report makes it clear that there is a large transit gap between the north and south, with the north having 56 per cent of the population and 68 per cent of the bus funding, while the south with 31 per cent of the population gets just 19 per cent
of the bus money. The north has 68 kilometres of rapid transit tracks, while the south has just six kilometres, the report notes. For the purpose of the report, the north is defined as seven communities: Burnaby, Coquitlam, New Westminster, Port Coquitlam, Port Moody, Richmond and Vancouver, while the South consists of five communities: both Langleys, Surrey, White Rock and Delta. North shore communities, which make up another 13 per

cent of the population, were not included. To catch up with the north, the Surrey report says south of the Fraser needs to double the number of buses and quadruple the amount of rapid transit trackage. Fox felt the report ought to use stronger language to underline the disparity in transit service. Councillor Kim Richter said the report didn’t address specific Langley needs. “I don’t see the benefit [to
Langley in endorsing it],” Richter said. Councillor Steve Ferguson proposed a “council of councils” summit meeting of south of the Fraser communities to present a united front on transit. Ferguson said without a south-of-the-Fraser united front, the population imbalance will continue to mean transit projects for the north will get priority at the expense of the south. “Count the heads,” Ferguson said. “They [north of the Fraser communities] are going to have the majority of the votes.” Councillor Michelle Sparrow said without a united front of south-of-the-Fraser communities, she was “very concerned that our voice in Langley won’t be represented.” “If we aren’t united on this, our voices are going to be lost,” Sparrow added. Mayor Jack Froese said other mayors on this side of the Fraser have told him a co-ordinated position would help, but the tight schedule for the report may not allow enough time for a summit. “We’re kind of at the eleventh hour,” Froese said. “The deadline the minister gave us has been very short.” Council voted unanimously to poll other south of the Fraser communities about arranging a transit summit.

Higher TransLink taxes ahead, says taxpayers’ group POLL OUTLINES VARYING TAX OPTIONS BELIEVED TO BE UNDER CONSIDERATION JEFF NAGEL Black Press
Anti-tax activists aren’t waiting for an expected June release of proposed new fees or taxes to fund TransLink expansion. Canadian Taxpayers Federation (CTF) B.C. director Jordan Bateman says polling on potential options suggests Metro Vancouver mayors will go to referendum on multiple new revenue sources that could cost the typical household hundreds of dollars more each year. He issued a news release estimating the combined increases at $595 per year. In an interview, however, Bateman backtracked from that estimate, which assumed all sources under discussion would be fully used. “We don’t expect them to come forward wanting all of those tools,” Bateman said, adding the aim was to make residents aware of the possible impact of each individual source when a proposed package is unveiled. An Angus Reid online poll that Bateman
takes as evidence of what’s to come discusses a $75 per year vehicle levy, a new 0.5 per cent carbon tax in Metro, a 0.5 per cent regional sales tax for TransLink and road/bridge tolls of less than $1 per trip, as well as further increases in property taxes and transit fares. TransLink, Metro Vancouver and the mayors’ council all say they weren’t behind the poll. Mayors have indicated they will propose just a couple of new sources, not the entire menu, and they’ve consistently said road pricing is a longer-term idea that could not be on the ballot of a referendum expected by mid-2015. TransLink strategic planning vice-president Bob Paddon said the CTF’s estimate that the region’s average household already pays $1,060 annually to TransLink is way too high. The actual figure is about $605, according to Paddon, who said the CTF wrongly counted all property tax revenue as coming from residential homeowners when a
big chunk of it – $145 million population will grow by an– comes from businesses. other million over then next Paddon said taxes paid to 25 years. TransLink make up less than “If we want a livable region 10 per cent of total household we need to invest in a worldspending on transportation, class transit system,” said Coonce the cost of vehicles and quitlam Mayor Richard Stewfuel are taken into account. art. “Contributing to TransLink “The alternative to propernot only benefits those who ly funding transit is an enoruse transit, but it eases the mous increase in property pressures of congestion and taxes to pay for bigger roads. contributes to the livability of Because no one wants congesour region,” he said. tion.” Metro board chair Greg JORDAN BATEMAN Bateman continues to opMoore said Bateman “should pose any more money for consider using his time more TransLink and said he hopes constructively and offer solutions to this the mayors’ delay in making an announceregion, instead of cheap press releases that ment means they’re split on what to do. do nothing.” “There’s no magic taxes that aren’t goThere’s strong support among Metro ing to cost some group or most taxpayers mayors for the need to raise more money more money,” Bateman said. “We don’t befor transit, as well as road projects like re- lieve in giving pyromaniacs more matches. placing the Pattullo Bridge, in light of ex- TransLink burns through enough of our isting congestion and projections Metro’s money already.”

If you or someone you know is experiencing hearing loss Ears Hearing Clinics located on the corner of 56th Avenue and Salt Lane should be your first choice to have a hearing test. When you are feeling out of the loop with your family and friends because of untreated hearing loss the world can be a very lonely place. Untreated hearing loss can lead to a person experiencing a sense of disconnection and this can lead to depression. Owned and operated by Kim Galick, Ears Hearing Clinics is a full service audiology clinic. The clinic IM provides free hearing tests, hearing aids and hearing protection. For the past 18 years, Galick has been a Registered Hearing Instrument Specialist with the College of Speech and Hearing Professionals of BC. Kim and her team provide exceptional hearing health care on a professional and personal basis to each patient. “I take pride with the service we give to our patient’s hearing health needs which also includes their family member’s needs as well,” said Galick.
Galick has a great appreciation for seniors and Langley’s veterans hold a special place in her heart. Ears Hearing Clinics is hosting the second annual “Ears Hearing Langley 50+ Lifestyle Expo”. Because the event falls on the 70th anniversary of D Day (Allies invasion of Normandy) there will be special tributes to Langley’s veterans. The event will take place on Friday, June 6th at the Coast Hotel and Convention Centre and will be from 10:00 a.m. until 3:00 p.m. A special ceremony will take place at 10:30 with a ALICK piper to open the event. Local veterans have been invited to come and participate in the service. The keynote speaker will be the ever popular Dr. Art Hister who will speak about health issues. Numerous exhibitors will be on hand with lots of products and services. Admission is free but participants are asked to pick up their tickets at Ears Hearing Langley.

a normal part of a person’s overall health maintenance. Just as you have your eyes tested annually your hearing should be tested as well. A yearly checkup will ensure that hearing loss is identified and corrected before it leads to other health problems. As people age hearing loss becomes more prevalent so depending on the outcome of the test results Galick does recommends annual to bi-annual checkups. This is most important if the test results show some degree of hearing loss. But rest assured the staff at Ears Hearing Langley will be honest with you. Honesty and integrity are the backbone of Ears Hearing Langley. Guaranteed. If a hearing aid is required you will be given honest information that will suit your individual hearing needs. “My colleagues and friends know that the only products I would recommend to my patients are products that I would feel comfortable recommending to my own parents or grandparents. Our patients are treated like members of the family the moment they step through our doors.”, said Galick. “When a hearing aid is recommended we take several things into consideration such as one’s lifestyle, dexterity requirements and budget,” she added.

Mangia! THE ITALIAN SUPPER CLUB IS OFFERING POP-UP DINNERS IN STUNNING VANCOUVER AND LANGLEY LOCALES AS WELL AS COOKING CLASSES IN PRIVATE HOMES M O N I Q U E TA M M I N G A Times Re po r t e r
Good food is at the heart of every Italian home, where families gather around the table for hours at a time. That’s evident in a scene in the popular 2003 movie Under the Tuscan Sun, which features a large dinner party, held in the middle of an olive grove, with young and old sharing in food, wine and laughter. It’s this quintessential expression of the Italian lifestyle, including weekends spent with the whole family, centered around food that a Fort Langley couple hopes to recreate in the Lower Mainland. A couple months ago, Tanya and Uli Larosa created the Italian Supper Club, to offer authentic cooking classes and dinner parties in people’s homes. The couple who have two boys, aged nine months and three years, were inspired to start the supper club after their picky toddler fell in love with home-made pasta. Having to make it every day, they thought why not bring these simple recipes to people around Metro Vancouver. Since opening, they’ve been booked solid every weekend. Now, to celebrate the Italian food experience, the couple are offering La Dolce Vita — pop-up dinners in two locations in Langley and one in Vancouver during the month of June. You can’t buy tickets, you have to win to be included in the intimate outdoor dinner party, where a dozen strangers will gather under the stars, while Uli cooks an authentic Italian three-course meal in front of them. “We’ll have candles lit and music, the settings will be stunning and the evenings promise to be magical. We are really excited to do this,” said Uli. The dates for the pop-up dinners in Langley are June 7 and 20. Another will be held in Vancouver on June 27. To get a seat at one of the pop-up din-

They also host in-home authentic Italian dinner parties. ners, all you have to do is go to their Facebook page, ‘Like’ them and answer a question related to Italian culture. So far, they are revealing only one of the pop-up dinner party locations. On June 7, they will host guests at Langley’s Backyard Vineyards — where people will eat and drink among the vines. Since beginning their new venture together, they couple has entertained in homes across Metro Vancouver, from Yaletown to Abbotsford.
Café Classico season closes with a night of jazz
Concerts Café Classico’s season concludes on May 30, with a Night Jazz Café of well known songs and and jazz standards performed by Alisia Lyne, voice, Jodi Proznick, bass, Jillian Lebeck, piano and Jimmy D. Lane, guitar. Pre-concert coffee and commentary, held by LCMS artistic director of concerts Elizabeth Bergmann, is at 7 p.m. followed by the concert at 8 p.m.
Because traditional Italian suppers involve the whole family, kids are encouraged to be there. “We have kids, so we are flexible about times,” said Tanya. They like to keep the dinners fairly intimate, with a minimum of six but capping it at 14 people. The Larosas arrive at your home with the menu, ingredients and the Italian chef. They cook with you and your guests, who will enjoy such classic Italian dishes as
“Alisia is a musician who has extensive experience in singing a colourful mix of genres from jazz to new pop to country to her own compositions,” said Bergmann. “She is bringing with her a first class group of versatile musicians who will be performing an incredible variety of repertoire of jazz standards, pop songs and musical hits. Tunes by some of the jazz
gnocchi, focaccia bread and tiramisu, all made from scratch. The Larosas do all the dishes, so the homeowner can sit back and enjoy. “With pasta, we start with local flour and eggs and a pasta machine,” said Uli. “Everyone gets a chance to roll out their own pasta. It can be very therapeutic.” At one recent dinner, it was all men and they loved making the pasta. “We have reports that they were making gnocchi the next night,” said Tanya. “There is this perception that Italian food is too difficult, but it’s so easy and fast,” said Tanya, who calls herself Uli’s “humble assistant.” “It is home cooking using very few ingredients with very simple recipes,” said Uli. “Even biscotti is easy to make.” “All the recipes are in my head,” said Uli. “They are my mom’s recipes passed on to her children.” Tanya said Uli’s sister, who lives in Calabria, Italy, is a fabulous cook and they have been at her table many times, sitting around, eating for hours. “She is very happy we are doing this. We are always Skyping about food. Just the other day we were doing cannelloni and she was saying add a bit of red wine and it was delicious,” he said. What’s most popular about the Italian Supper Club cooking classes is their simplicity. “People find it hard to believe recipes can have just five ingredients,” said Uli. For Uli, who was raised in the southern Italian region of Calabria — the toe of the boot — the Italian way of life is all he knows. He’s only lived in Langley for two years. His family home has lemon, orange and olive groves. His dad makes his own olive oil and limoncelo. “You can see Sicily from the beach beside our home. It would be a fantastic venue to bring visitors,” said Uli. In fact, the couple are planning a culinary tour of Italy in June 2015. They are heading back to Uli’s family home this summer to map out places to take people. Uli will cook a meal in his family orchard and it will be filmed and posted on their Facebook page, to give visitors an idea of what they can expect. To that end, they are now launching Friday Italiano — with espresso take-out menus, delivering picnics to offices, homes and whereever the food needs to go. Check out theitaliansupperclub.ca for more or call 604-753-7337.

The Papercuts, from Langley Fundamental Elementary, are the proud winners of the Langley Library Challenge portion of the Reading Link Challenge. The Reading Link Challenge program, which promotes “the sport of reading,” involves teams of six students each from schools across the Lower Mainland. All teams read the same six books and then compete to see which team recalls the most about the books. Western Conservatory of Music (Langley) piano student, Jeongsoo Doo, received the highest mark in B.C. on his Grade 10 Royal Conservatory of Music exam, with 97 per cent. He was presented with a $300 scholarship from the RCM Alumni Association at the Shadbolt Centre for the Arts on April 27. He performed the Allemande and Gigue from the French Suite No. 5 by J.S. Bach as well as Graceful Ghost Rag by William Bolcom. With some police support, Nicomekl Elementary School students (L to R) Mike, Jamie and Madison were handing out hand-made “Think of Me” cards on April 24, to drivers outside the Langley school on 53 Avenue at 200 Street. The ICBC-sponsored campaign aims to promote better behaviour in school zones by drivers.

A group of youths, all 14-year-olds from a North Langley church group, along with three leaders, David Clement and TWU student Jennifer Rumley, pose for a photo during a work bee on Salt Spring Island.
Fearsome green force of 14-year-olds Around the campfire the night before, my son Luke spoke words of encouragement to the group of 14-year-olds in his North Langley Community Church youth group. He talked about how we often hear about environmental problems in the news, but seldom get to do something about them. Tomorrow was their big chance. We were on Salt Spring Island in early May. A light drizzle fell as we got out of the vans near the summit of Mt. Maxwell. Back in 2009 an accidental fire had burned on Maxwell. Since fire is historically very important in the Garry oak ecosystems we study, I’d jumped on the chance to set up some research plots. Now the study was finished, these energetic 14-year-olds had the job of cleaning up my ecological research toys. Under a permit from BC Parks, I had set up 24 plots to see how deer grazing affected vegetation after a fire. In 2010, Trinity Western students working for me had fenced off 12 of these four-metre by four-metre plots with two

A key member of the Langley Rams offensive line and one of the team’s top running backs have earned invites to the B.C. Lions rookie camp later this month. Offensive lineman Anthony Daley and running back Nathan Lund will take part in the camp in Kamloops from May 28 to 30. Daley, a six-foot-three, 279-pound centre was added to the Lions’ practice roster as a territorial exempt junior last July. This allowed him to practice with the Canadian Football League club while practising and playing for the Rams. The 20-year-old from Winnipeg still has two years of junior football eligibility remaining and in 2013 earned all-Canadian honours. He has also won the B.C. Football Conference’s top offensive lineman award for two consecutive seasons. Lund, who just turned 19, is coming off a great first season with Langley.
Lund, a five-foot-11, 180-pound running back had an outstanding rookie season for the Rams junior football program in 2013 as he led the conference with an average of 10.6 yards a carry. He finished with 699 yards and seven touchdowns on 66 carries. He was also a returner on special teams, finishing with 205 yards on 20 punt returns and 10 kick-off returns for 316 yards and a touchdown. He attended Centennial Secondary and is entering his second season of junior football, which is for players 18 to 22. The Rams main camp begins July 2 and they open the season at home on July 26 against the VI (Vancouver Island) Raiders in a rematch of the 2013 Cullen Cup BCFC championship game. ••• Two former members of the Rams were also in the news after getting selected in the CFL draft on May 13.
The Toronto Argonauts picked Surrey’s Jas Dhillon in the third round (21st overall). The 25-year-old played for the Rams from 2007 to 2009 and then for the University of Regina Rams in 2010. Dhillon returned to junior football with Langley in 2011 before playing last season for the UBC Thunderbirds. Until 2013, Dhillon played on the defensive line before UBC switched him to the offensive line. And the Montreal Alouettes selected former Rams kicker Nick Boyd in the fifth round (43rd overall) out of the University of Manitoba. The 25-year-old was second in the Canada West conference in punting last season with a 42.0 average and hit nine of his 13 field goal attempts. The North Vancouver native played for the Rams in 2009 and 2010 before joining the Manitoba Bisons program.

When Erin Saunders told her classmates in Grade 1 that she played hockey on a girls team, the boys in her class said they didn’t believe her. So on “Wear Your Favourite Hockey Jersey” day at school, she proudly wore her Langley Lightning Girls Ice Hockey jersey. Erin is now in Grade 5 and loves playing hockey more than ever, thanks to her great coaches and the strong friendships she has developed with her teammates. Ruby Graber, Grade 4, decided to play hockey this past season as a goalie. “You make a lot of friendships, have lots of fun, and learn how to respect your opponents whether you won or they won,”she said. “This was my first year playing hockey and we did well as a team because we worked hard together, understood each other, and played for each other.” “I find it surprising how many parents aren’t aware that Langley offers a hockey program for girls,” said Erin’s mom, Hilary. The Langley Girls Ice Hockey Association has been doing this for many years, and this season marks its 20th year. To celebrate this milestone and to encourage more girls to play Canada’s national sport, the Langley Girls Ice Hockey Association is holding a free, Come Try Hockey event on Saturday, May 31 from noon to 1:30 p.m. at Sportsplex ice rink, 20165 91A Ave. All girls aged five to 17 who would like to play hockey are invited. Skates will be provided and some helmets are available, but bring a bicycle/ skateboard helmet and a hockey stick, if you have one. If you would like more information about Come Try Hockey, e-mail dumpitin@hotmail.com. The Langley Girls Ice Hockey Association (LGIHA) currently has over 100 female hockey players, eight teams, and is run by many dedicated parent volunteers and coaches. “The 20th anniversary of the organization is

New players receive a $50 discount and registration fees have been waived for female goalies with full equipment (Atom and older). Visit www.langleylightninggirlshockey.com for more.

Players from three Aldergrove Minor Baseball Tadpole teams received tips from senior members of the Langley Blaze on May 13 at Aldergrove Athletic Park.
Players from three Aldergrove Minor Baseball Tadpole teams, including the Blue Jays, Green Machine and Green Hornets, each received an hour’s one-on-one time with members of the Langley Blaze and Junior National teams on May 13 at Aldergrove Athletic Park. The senior men volunteered their time to individually assist the appreciative eight to nine-year-old players with their batting, catching and pitching skills at their regular Tuesday night practices. The Tadpole teams only play home games at this level and the games are Thursdays and Saturdays at the local ball parks.

Henry will be deeply missed and remembered by his wife of 60 years Bertha and children Joe, Liz (Louis), Henry (Laura), Patty (Rod), Joan (Tim), Carolyn (Doug), Glenda (Pauli), and George, as well as 13 grandchildren and 6 great grandchildren. Henry immigrated to Canada from Switzerland in 1956 with Bertha at his side and became and remained a very proud and thankful Canadian, living a life of hard work, accomplishments and joy, surrounded always by family, friends, and visitors whether at their early homes in Mission and Richmond, the family farm in Glen Valley, the trapline at Silver River, or at his beloved Woodjam Ranch in Horsefly, BC. Prayers will be offered on Wednesday, May 28th at 7pm and funeral mass will be celebrated at 11:00 am on Thursday, May 29th at St’s Joachim and Ann Church at 2823-273rd St. Aldergrove, BC.
