Summer starts early for students MO N I Q U E TA M M I N G A Ti me s Re po r t e r
Summer vacation came abruptly for elementary and middle school students in Langley on Thursday. Teachers in Langley were on strike Friday, participated in the B.C.-wide BCTF scheduled study session on Monday and with hopes of a settlement now dashed from a weekend of negotiating, the B.C. Teachers Federation planned to be on a full-scale strike for the remainder of the school year, starting today (Tuesday). The board of education’s last meeting of the year, also tonight (Tuesday), has been changed to Langley City Hall, to respect the striking teachers. Langley School District said students at the elementary and middle school levels aren’t likely going to receive a report card and if they do, a condensed version may be mailed to them. The Labour Relations Board ruled and an Essential Service Order was sent to school districts Monday, indicating that final grades for Grade 12 students will be provided to administration. A subsequent plan for this information to be provided to stu-
dents and parents is now underway. The plans, once created, will be communicated to parents. The LRB is still addressing the remaining issue concerning the submission of marks for Grades 10 and 11 students. The Essential Services Order indicates that provincial examinations for Grades 10-12 will proceed as scheduled. District staff will be making arrangements to supervise provincial exams. The order indicates that students will be able to enter and exit the school property, as specific entrances will not be picketed. The school district is awaiting another Essential Services Order specific to support staff (including transportation). This information will be forwarded to families as it becomes available. Teachers were rallying outside Langley MLA Mary Polak’s office on Monday afternoon, following their earlier study session. Picketing is expected outside all school district facilities today (Tuesday). Support staff, who are members of the Canadian Union of Public Employees and recently agreed to a new contract, will be out of work while picketing takes place.
D A N FE R GUS ON Langley Time s
More than 60 teachers and supporters rallied outside the office of Langley MLA Mary Polak on Monday afternoon to protest the ongoing dispute between teachers and the provincial government. An agreement had not be reached as of Monday afternoon despite a full weekend of negotiating between the two sides.
Parent stages ‘walk in’ at Simonds Elementary GARY AH U J A Ti me s Re po r t e r
Brigitte MacNamara was given a half hour’s notice on Thursday that her daughter’s Grade 5 ceremony was being held that afternoon. “I showed up here in my work clothes, I almost missed it,” she said. This was an event that her daughter and the rest of the students at Simonds Elementary had been looking forward to for years. The ceremony sees each Grade 5 student receive a rose from a Kindergarten student, the Langley mom explained.
“They are disappointed,” MacNamara told the media outside the school on Friday morning. “They received a pencil, which is great … but the rose is very symbolic. “A pencil means nothing to these children, but the rose did.” With students around the province caught in the middle of the ongoing dispute between the B.C. Teachers’ Federation and the provincial government, MacNamara was prompted to take action. So on Friday morning, she crossed the teachers’ picket line outside Simonds Elementary and took her two school-aged

children inside. “This is not my picket line, I am not part of this union,” said MacNamara, who has two daughters —who are in Grades 3 and 5 — at the elementary school. “I know (teaching) is a hard job. “It does not affect me. What affects me is missing work, is my children not being in school. “There is a third party here, this is about the kids.” MacNamara showed up at about 8:45 a.m. and whisked her kids in through a side door at the elementary school, before coming out to speak to the media.

“Media attention is not what I am looking for,” she said. “I am just looking to find — hopefully with other people’s help — a solution to this. And until they do, I have to step in. I really do.” Friday was the last day of rotating strikes around the province, but the BCTF took a strike vote earlier in the week, with 86 per cent in favour of escalating job action. The BCTF issued 72-hour strike notice on June 12, with a full strike expected to begin today (Tuesday) if an agreement is not reached. On Monday afternoon, the fullscale strike looked like a certainty. Continued Page 7

Five and one-half years for causing two crashes MO N I Q U E TA M M I N G A Ti me s Re po r t e r
A 26-year-old Surrey man has been sentenced to five and one-half years in jail and a 10-year driving ban for swerving a stolen Ford F350 truck into oncoming traffic on Highway 10 near 192 Street, causing a horrific six-vehicle crash that left at least two victims with life-altering scars and injuries in 2009. Jason Brewer had pleaded guilty to two counts of criminal negligence causing bodily harm in New Westminster Supreme Court. On June 13, Judge Selwyn Romilly sentenced Brewer to four and one-half years for the crash, and one year for causing a police pursuit on Dec. 31, 2012 in Langley. With credit for time already served, he will be out in two and one-half years. He is also facing murder charges in the shooting death of a man in a Willoughby basement suite on Dec. 31, 2012. His trial for that is set for March 2015. At the time of the police pursuit he pleaded guilty to, he was prohibited from driving, on probation, and using a vehicle he wasn’t authorized to use. Crown had asked for four to five years for the crash. His defence lawyer was asking for three. The court learned that in November, 2009, Brewer had started a new job as a day labourer with a landscaping business. On Nov. 14, the landscaping company owner loaned the company Ford F350 truck to Brewer to get dinner for the crew. He never did. He admits to getting high all that night. The next day, at 3:19 p.m., Brewer, high on crack and pot, drove the stolen truck eastbound on Highway 10, west of 192 Street, driving at what he said was 140 km/h, when he swerved hard into oncoming traffic, hitting six vehicles with 13 occupants. The injuries the crash caused left at least
four people with lifelong problems. First he hit a Nissan Pathfinder, striking the driver’s side door. He then collided head-on with a GMC Jimmy. Inside the vehicle was a man and woman. The vehicle was so damaged, the Jaws of Life were used to get the pair out. Their injuries were life-threatening. The Ford F350 then became airborne, barrel rolling over three more vehicles before striking a lamp standard, causing live wires to come crashing down. Brewer sustained no injuries in the crash. He told at least two doctors that he tried to commit suicide that day. At one point, he had pleaded guilty to the crimes but then withdrew his pleas based on the fact that he now denied he was trying to kill himself. An appeals court judge allowed him to Langley Time s file pho to withdraw his pleas. In his trial, he ended up Jason Brewer deliberately caused this horrific six-vehicle crash on Highway 10 at 192 Street on Nov. 15, 2009, pleading guilty. and has now been sentenced to four and one-half years for his actions.

Brookswood horse vandalized yet again M ONIQUE TAMMINGA Times Reporter
Contr ib uted p hoto
Tattoo, the horse sculpture, was vandalized a second time before an unveiling Saturday.
After having its head chopped off and legs cut down by senseless vandals in a Brookswood spray park nearly a year ago, Tattoo, the horse sculpture, was supposed to be official unveiled again, wounds and all, on Saturday as part of Brookswood Days. The colourful sculpture, created by artist and retired Langley Fine Arts teacher Marilyn Dyer, was reinstalled by Township staff Friday afternoon. But overnight, vandals got to Tattoo
again, this time hacking his hooves off and leaving a graffiti tag spray painted on his body. Diane Gendron, of the Langley Arts Council, said she is profoundly disappointed. “The Langley Arts Council and the Brookswood Merchants put that beautiful sculpture at that very park so kids could enjoy it and it was to provide a sense of pride for the community,” said Gendron. “Sadly, there are members of the community who want only to destroy.”

“No Tattoo in the park for Brookswood Days, no happy celebration with Ella Little from the Brookswood Merchants, Marilyn Dyer, the artist who painted Tattoo, and author Ruthie Charles (who has created a book around the horse story), and no poster beside the horse explaining its value to the community,” she said. Despite the sculpture being vandalized again, everyone involved is determined not to let the culprits win. The sculpture will be out there for the public to enjoy at some time in the future, said Gendron. It is currently in storage.

Metro Vancouver mayors have voted to go to referendum on using carbon taxes and eventually road pricing to pay for an ambitious transit expansion that would bring more buses, new light rail lines in Surrey and a SkyTrain extension in Vancouver. Their newly-unveiled plan asks the province to reallocate $250 million in annual carbon taxes to TransLink — something the province immediately rejected — but the backup request is to create a new regional carbon tax charged only within Metro Vancouver. That would effectively force motorists and homeowners, as well as business and industry, to all pay more for the fuel and natural gas they burn. It also calls for tolls to replace the aging Pattullo Bridge, although that toll, along with those on other bridges such as the Port Mann and Golden Ears, could be reduced or replaced with a shift in several years to a system of region-wide road and bridge tolls. The road pricing system would take five to eight years to design, but mayors aim to reduce gas taxes by six cents per litre when it takes effect. Transportation Minister Todd Stone said there’s “no chance” the province will reallocate existing carbon taxes — which offset income taxes — but said he is willing to discuss an additional regional carbon tax as well as road pricing. The 10-year plan with $7.5 billion in capital spending would end a tussle by the region’s two biggest cities for new rapid transit dollars. Surrey would get priority for a new $2.1 billion “L Line” con-
necting Guildford, Surrey Centre and Newton by light rail trains, with a later light rail line running to Langley City via Fraser Highway. (For details of Langley transit improvements, see page 11). Vancouver would get a $2 billion extension of SkyTrain’s Millennium line running west on the Broadway corridor as far as Arbutus. A further extension to UBC could be considered later. Also resolved is a scrap between Surrey and New Westminster over the Pattullo replacement — the new bridge would be four lanes but expandable to six later. The package first requires tentative approval by the provincial government and then a yes vote by a majority of Metro residents in a referendum expected as early as spring 2015. Burnaby Mayor Derek Corrigan was the lone mayor to vote against the plan, while the mayors of Delta and Anmore were absent. Corrigan said he pushed for a more modest plan with better odds of success, but said others wanted to “go big” to ensure both Surrey and Vancouver got their new transit lines. “They went for virtually everything and I don’t think that’s going to be palatable to the majority of people,” Corrigan said, predicting there won’t be enough contributions coming from the provincial and federal governments. It’s assumed Victoria and Ottawa will each pay one-third of the cost of major projects, or $3.5 billion over a decade. “That’s a lot of money,” Stone said when asked by reporters if the package is affordable. The province previously pledged a third of major rapid transit projects as well as the
Pattullo Bridge, but Stone said it’s important to phase the work and added the offer is subject to a solid business plan and the province’s ability to afford contributions. He congratulated mayors for their work and said he believes a referendum is winnable. The province is already reviewing its tolling policy and Stone said road pricing is “likely where things are going in the long term.” An extra million new residents are expected to arrive over the next 25 years, along with 500,000 more cars, making today’s road congestion look minor without much improved transit to carry many more people, mayors said. “We need to make sure people have options to the automobile or we will be in gridlock,” Port Coquitlam Mayor Greg Moore said. Vancouver Mayor Gregor Robertson said the current freeze on funding has pushed transit service into decline and has “caused chaos” around the region. “I hate to raise taxes,” said Langley Township Mayor Jack Froese, but predicted residents will save time and money in the long run by investing in better transit now. The plan would generate $110 million per year in new funding initially, rising to $390 million a year by the end of the 10 years. It also forecasts TransLink will eventually collect an extra $500 million in extra transit fares annually as a result of increased ridership. Property taxes would continue to rise at the current rate of three per cent each year. Not proposed as part of the plan are other previously discussed taxes such as a vehicle levy or regional sales tax.
HORSE RACING INDUSTRY RALLIES FOLLOWING DEVASTATING FIRE The horse racing community has banded together to help the principals of JJJ Stables, owners of the 17 standardbreds that died in a massive barn fire in Langley, BC. In an effort to assist JJJ Stables and families impacted by the Langley barn fire, four Great Canadian Gaming Corporation racetrack facilities have initiated fund-raising plans as a show of support in the recovery process. The horses and equipment lost in the fire were uninsured. Hastings Racecourse in Vancouver, BC, Fraser Downs Racetrack in Surrey, BC, as well as Ontario-based Georgian Downs and Flamboro Downs will be collecting cash donations from Saturday, June 7 to Tuesday, June 17. Fraser Downs and Harness Racing BC will co-host a fundraising evening on Tuesday, June 17 at 6:30pm with a wine and cheese reception in the Homestretch at Fraser Downs (Min $20 donation). The evening will include a silent auction. Those wishing to contribute to the silent auction should deliver their items to the Fraser Downs reception desk prior to Sunday, June 15. All items collected will be on display in the Fraser Downs Atrium from Sunday, June 15 to Tuesday, June 17. For more information contact Fraser Downs Racetrack & Casino at 604.576.9141.

MacNamara announced her intentions for the ‘walk-in’ on June 9 and invited other parents to drop off their children. One parent did bring her child to the school Friday morning. MacNamara was not instructing the students. “They are not under my care, they are under the administrators’ supervision,” she said. “I am just going to be there to make it a learning experience, and fun, and a great experience for all of us.” “She is not teaching a class,” said Ken Hoff, the Langley School District’s communications manager, prior to MacNamara’s arrival. “We have allowed her access to the library. “Much like during the school year, she is spending time with her children as a parent.” Her plan was to continue working on what her children have been studying. She also planned on making it as ‘normal’ a school day as she could, with breaks for recess and lunch. “I am fully aware of what

Teachers on the picket line did not speak to MacNamara or to the media.

It appears that school is over for the summer, as the full-fledged strike by members of the B.C. Teachers Federation is set to begin today (Tuesday). Here’s hoping that there will be a quick resolution to the strike, through hard and meaningful bargainining. Both sides in the dispute say they wish to reach a settlement — that’s what members of the public, and especially parents and students, wants as well. The longer the contract, the better, for that means more years of labour peace and more concentration on learning. High school students should be able to write their final exams, as that has been ruled an essential service by the Labour Relations Board. The fate of summer school remains up in the air. Hopefully, there will soon be word on what is happening on that front. This dispute has been hard on all involved, and the sooner it is over, the better.

Question langeytimes.com
The municipal elections are in far-off November. Local politicos are already thinking of them. The incumbent mayor in Cranbrook has already said he is running again, as is a Kimberley councillor. More will be announcing in the weeks to come. Incumbents and new candidates alike will come forward. Here are a few tips for candidates, rounded up by our news team. We’ve all been watching local politics for a long time, some of us longer than others. Having personally sat through hundreds, perhaps thousands, of hours of council meetings over the past 15 years, I’d like to dole out some free advice to those thinking of running. 1. Don’t run promising open government and better communication. How many candidates have we seen over the years making the promise that under their watch there will be a better flow of information from city hall to citizen? And yet when they get into office, they quickly realize it’s not as easy as it sounds. Sometimes there are legal reasons why a lot of information cannot be released. Sometimes there are other hurdles. 2. Don’t run for council thinking you’ll be popular. You won’t be. Not only will you not be popular, you will be accosted by phone, email and in person by citizens unhappy with taxes, potholes, taxes, sidewalks, taxes, arenas, taxes, snow removal and taxes. You will find that you can’t go out in public without someone bringing up something they are unhappy with and expecting you to fix it. 3. Don’t run if you are overly sensitive to criticism. You will be criticized. You will likely be called names. Developing a thick skin and a high tolerance for taking abuse, and not responding in a snippy manner, is a vital skill. Those in public service must maintain a calm about them in the face of some pretty nasty comments. It’s not all bad, but as is true almost everywhere, you hear more from angry people than those happy with you. 4 .Don’t run expecting to bring massive change. A local government can have very little effect on the overall economy, so don’t make any promises in that regard. Municipalities are not able to offer tax incentives to business. Certainly a city can do what it can to tempt business by promoting itself as a great place to live, but a local government’s job is to manage the budget and provide infrastructure and services to its citizens. In addition, individual mayors or councillors must work with other members of council in order to get anything done. Majority rules, compromise is the order of the day and change comes slowly. 4. Don’t run if you’ve never been to a council meeting or a budget meeting. If you can’t sit through three hours of bylaws and financial minutiae, this is not the job for you. Because there will be meetings. And more meetings. There is so much to learn about government process that many newly-elected councillors say it takes half the first term just to get up to speed. Have we scared you off yet? We hope not because municipalities rely on people who care and love their communities to step up and take on the often thankless job of mayor or councillor. — Carolyn Grant, Kimberley Daily Bulletin

Student pens open letter to BCTF president Editor: I’m a Grade 11 student at Walnut Grove Secondary. I’ve just heard news about the full scale strike and I am thoroughly disappointed in this, as it is students like me who are being affected the most. I’ve written an open letter to BCTF president Jim Iker, as I would like to balance the discussion so that the public (and Mr. Iker) can hear how this strike is affecting the students. And ultimately, isn’t it the students who matter in this whole ordeal? Dear Mr. Iker: I’ve read several open letters in the past weeks from members of your union to Premier Christy Clark. I thought it would only be fair for you to receive one as well, from the point of view that matters: from students. I would like to start off by saying I do not believe your union for one second when you say this whole ordeal is about “the kids.” The ones affected most by this are the students. As a Grade 11 student, all but two of my exams have been affected so far this year by the striking and lockout nonsense. I understand the government is the one initiating the lockouts, however it is also my understanding that this was a retaliatory measure to the job action “level 1” strike by the teachers. At the end of the day, it doesn’t mat-

The only thing that I rate representation of a job and thousands of other stumarket.

But about compensation than anything else.
Another fact to refute the claim that it isn’t about the money is that the BCTF strike would continue through the summer, cancelling summer school, while the government has stated they will not be performing any lockouts during the summer. I would like an explanation as to why I am not afforded the opportunity to take a course in the summer if I voluntarily choose to. I plan on retaking a course to get a higher grade in the summer session this year. I hope to apply to some top universities next year, and I want to have the best marks that I can. Is the BCTF going to refuse me this option? Will I be forced to attend my second or third choice school, just because I did poorly on two tests during my Grade 11 year? Sure, it is my own fault for not getting an excellent mark on the first attempt, but there is a reason UBC, SFU and every other B.C. institution will take your highest grade attempt for your GPA calculation. It’s because they want to reward ambitious students who want to do their absolute best. I just ask that you let me do my absolute best, Mr. Iker. BRANDON SOUTHERN, WALNUT GROVE SECONDARY CLASS OF 2015
Let’s hear reason for lockout Cancelling bathing program Editor: To Board of Education trustees — thank you for all you do for public education in Langley. Your effort is commendable. Second, in an open letter to this newspaper and posted on the district website, could you outline specifically what our teachers in our community are not doing that warrants your partial lockout, a deduction of 10 per cent of their pay and their full lockout at secondary school for three days and elementary for one day at the end of June. The 10 per cent has already been deduct-
ed from teachers paycheques, so there must be specific reasons for this. Without specific reasons, people might begin to conclude that the trustees we elected are simply following a BCPSEA demand designed to be vindictive, and to provoke and inflame the dispute with teachers. Many may start to think that our trustees no longer represent the opinions of the local community. Your rationale for this treatment is important, as we consider who to vote for in November. B. MCCLOY, LANGLEY
Giving up pay for a cause Editor: I am giving up my fourth day of pay today (Monday), because I believe in better quality education for children in British Columbia. Some people think that teachers are using students as pawns, keeping them out of school so that we can fight for higher salary.
The reality is, I won’t have enough money to pay for my July rent. I am a single mother with two children. I am a teacher in Langley, resident of Surrey. TRACEY CLAYTON, SURREY
causes hardship for many Editor: Imagine yourself with an illness that won’t permit you to clean your body. You cannot get into a bathtub or shower. You cannot use a soft cloth to bathe yourself because even that gentle pressure will make you bleed. Up until now, there was a solution run by Fraser Health called The Bathing Program but now it has been cancelled abruptly. This program which had one’s body submersed into warm water by means of a chair on a pulley, enabling the patient to cleanse themselves by means of soapy water that was then replaced with fresh water to rinse of the cleansing residue. The cost to the patient was $10, plus the cost of transportation to and from the facility. Fraser Health gave no reason for the
discontinuation of this vital bathing program such as cost, nor did it suggest an increase in price. No, there was just a terse statement stating the program was finished. Can you imagine yourself being one of these hapless patients with a body gradually starting to stink and turning into a breeding ground for infection? These are the physical aspects of the discontinuation of this vital service. Can you possibly understand the mental anguish if you found yourself in this dreadful state? How would you feel if a loved one had to suffer this depravation? Something must be done to rectify this appalling state of affairs immediately. MIKE HARVEY, LANGLEY

Transit improvements for Langley FR AN K B U CH O LT Z Tim e s Re po r t e r
Langley would benefit from proposed transit improvements outlined by the Mayors’ Council on Regional Transportation on Thursday. The biggest improvement would be a B-Line express bus between Langley City and the SkyTrain line in Surrey on the route of the current 502 bus. It would offer frequent service and have a smaller number of stops. Within 12 years, an LRT line is proposed to run on the same route, from Surrey City
Centre to Langley City. A B-Line bus is also proposed to run between Langley City and the new Evergreen Line at Coquitlam Centre, across the Golden Ears Bridge. It would also connect to West Coast Express. The mayors’ plan calls for an expansion of that service as well. The plan also calls for a new tolled four-lane Pattullo Bridge, meaning the three river crossings closest to Langley will all be tolled. There would be improvements to the Langley City and Willowbrook transit exchang-
es and new bus service in both Willoughby and Brookswood. The plan calls for 11 new B-Line express bus routes, covering 200 kilometres; a 25 per cent increase in bus service, with many more routes getting frequent service of every 15 minutes and a 30 per cent boost in HandyDart service. Langley Township Mayor Jack Froese said “This will be a huge step towards easing congestion, protecting the environment, and providing better transportation options for our growing region.”
Transit costs already the highest DA N FERGU SO N Tim e s Re po r t e r
Metro Vancouver residents pay the most for public transit among the three largest metropolitan areas in Canada. Statistics generated by TransLink, the regional transportation authority, show people in the Lower Mainland area pay over $100 a year more than their counterparts in the Toronto and Montreal metropolitan areas when all transit-related vehicle fees, hydro levies, parking taxes, fuel taxes and property taxes are added together. It’s a gap of more than 20 per cent. The figures show the larger a metropolitan area is, the less householders pay for public transit. In the Toronto area, with over 5.5 million residents, the annu-
al cost per household is $406. In metropolitan Montreal, with 3.8 million people, it’s $425. In Metro Vancouver, with 2.3 million people, the annual combined cost is $533. The numbers were generated in response to a request by Langley Councillor Kim Richter, following a May report by the Canadian Taxpayers Federation (CTF) that showed drivers in Vancouver, Victoria and Montreal paid the highest gas taxes in the country. At the time, the CTF report complained that the gas taxes were being used to subsidize public transit, calling the practice “an inherently unfair tax scheme when the people who use public transit the least (or not at all) are the ones subsidizing it the most heavily.”
Richter requested a breakdown of the costs compared with other cities. The TransLink numbers, provided to The Times by Richter, show that roughly half of the transit funding in Metro Vancouver comes from gas taxes, about 10 times more than in Toronto and roughly five times more than in Montreal. In Toronto, most of the transit funding, about 90 per cent, is raised through property taxes, while in Montreal, about half the transit funding comes from property taxes, with another third coming from vehicle fees. TransLink said some of the difference between Metro Vancouver and the other two regions is due to the fact the local authority also collects money to fund major roads and four bridges.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have found that adults are consuming 15 per cent of their calories from sugars added to foods during processing. Moreover, just drinking one 12-oz. soda each day can increase your cardiovascular risk by 30 per cent. Many studies have also linked the consumption of added sugar in the diet to the development of diabetes, high blood pressure and obesity. Read your labels – and try to keep your added sugars to less than 10 per cent of your calories. Many people argue that the cholesterol that comes from the diet is less important than the cholesterol your body manufacturers, when it comes to cardiovascular disease. That said, there are foods you can consume which will actually help fight the cholesterol in your system. Oats and beans supply soluble fibre, associated with lowering those bad LDLs. Fatty fish (such as salmon) and nuts (such as walnuts) also help, as well has foods with added sterols and stanols. Improving your cholesterol levels can be assisted with simple, healthy dietary changes. The information labels on foods are a big help. Take note of the fat content and

month. Alternatives Funeral & Cremation Service in partnership with Until We Meet Again Pet Memorial and Cremation Centre is inviting animal lovers and those who helped in the search for the dogs to join in a day of support, cruelty awareness and healing for the families of the six dogs that died on May 13. The B.C. SPCA has since found enough evidence to recommend animal cruelty charges against the accused dog walker Emma Paulsen. Cruelty investigations manager Marcie Moriarty confirmed that the report was going to be sent to Crown counsel last week. The necropsies done on all six dogs showed that the dogs died of heat stroke, she said. The Day to Heel will be held on Sunday, June 22 at 2 p.m. in Spirit Square at Douglas Park in Langley City. “A Day to Heel is being held first and foremost to honour the dogs and the owners to whom they were a much-loved member of the family,” said Lawrence Little, organizer and owner of Alternative Funeral. “In addition, this commemorative event is being held to express thanks to the Pet Finders organization and all those who expended enormous efforts in an attempt to locate the missing dogs. We wanted to thank the residents of Langley that gave so much of their time searching for the pets.” Little explained that as an animal lover he felt deeply impacted by this tragedy and wanted to do something. He has invited the dog owners and the owners of Pet Finders. On that fateful day the dogs died, Paulsen claimed the dogs were stolen from the back of her pick up when she was at the Brookswood off leash dog park. Nearly a week later, after numerous searches and pleas by the owners and Paulsen herself, Pet Finders’ owners got her to confess that the dogs died and she dumped them in a ditch in Abbotsford that day. “It’s a day of support for the families who have lost their beloved companions, and an opportunity to heighten awareness of animal cruelty laws,” said Kevin Woronchak, owner of Until We Meet Again.

Come and try the Thai Restaurant that everyone is talking about! Deep Fried Ice Cream
Our Famous Pad Thai Spicy Calamari
Ban Chok Dee mainly from Central Thailand but Ban Chok Dee features dishes from all four regions of Thailand. The cooks each have more than 20 years of experience and, in fact, have had their own restaurants in Thailand. Under Parinya’s direction, they offer up some amazing dishes. Because each dish is prepared fresh, you can advise your server if you require peanut-free, gluten-free or vegetarian options. It stands to reason that a Thai restaurant should serve authentic Thai food, but this is not always the case. Because of the significance of food in Thailand’s national culture, Thailand’s Department of International Trade promotion has established the Thai Select program to certify restaurants that meet set guidelines for taste, service and atmosphere. Ban Chok Dee is one of only 14 Thai restaurants in western Canada to receive the Thai Select designation, ensuring that your meal will be an authentic culinary and cultural experience. Parinya, her husband and two children, have lived in Langley for seven years and first opened Ban Chok Dee in 2009 as a cozy, 46-seat restaurant. About two years ago, Ban Chok Dee moved to its present location at 20563 Douglas Crescent with seating for up to 120 guests.
With the larger location, there is enough room to host Thai cooking classes (usually on the patio). Parinya and her assistants will teach you how to prepare four authentic Thai dishes. Class sizes typically range from six to eight people, and each student is provided with fresh ingredients and a work station complete with stove and utensils. You will be guided through each step in the recipe (booklets included), starting with an explanation of how the ingredients work in the dish. The next class on June 28 is already sold out, but check their website for upcoming classes. The restaurant has a full bar and a good sized wine list. Parinya also has a fun wine finds list with an ever changing wine selection. Ban Chok Dee accommodates private parties and has a full catering service as well. They can bring the food to you or can even go to your location and do all the cooking and serving on-site. Before you visit, check out their website at www. BanChokDee.com to see the full menu, information about the restaurant and more. Like them on Facebook and check out their event photos to keep up with various promotions and special events. So the next time you’re in the mood for some authentic Thai cuisine, visit Ban Chok Dee. Don’t hesitate to give them a try, your taste buds will thank you!

Sixty Five Years of Marriage Built On Family Jim Mc G re g o r
Pam and Austin Brown of Langley will be celebrating sixty-five years of marriage on June 30th of this year. “I remember June 30,1949 as being a very nice summer day,” recalls Pam. “We were married in Christ Church Cathedral in Vancouver and then had a small reception afterwards.” Vancouver was their first meeting place. “We met roller skating at the Vancouver Roller Bowl,” smiles Austin. “Roller skating was a regular outing twice a week. I was a better skater but we got to know each other well and found we had a lot of common interests.” “We spent a lot of time at Kits beach and swimming at Kits pool and we both enjoyed being active and outdoors,” says Pam. “We were 19 and 22 when we were married and

since 1980
we had gone together for about two and a half years, so we knew each other pretty well.” Pam was originally born in Belfast, Ireland. “We had a large family there and those were very tough years. In 1935, my sister and I were sent to Canada, which was common back then. We arrived in Duncan at the Fairbridge Farm School, a residential school for underprivileged British children, where I stayed from age 8 until I was 16.” “I did quite well there,” explains Pam. “We received a good education and I played on a championship basketball team. It was a better life for me than I would have had in Belfast.” “When I got out, I went to work as a domestic for Mr. and Mrs. Nelson in Vancouver, working in their home, babysitting and doing house work. Mrs. Nelson was also Irish and I was treated well. Recently I connected with their daughter, Madeline Nelson who is ten years younger than me, but have become close friends again.” Pam eventually worked for Sears part time for twenty-two years, the last seven as the full time manager of their catalogue department in New Westminster. Austin was born in Edmonton and eventually made his way with his Mother and two sisters to Vancouver. After Grade 10 he went to Van. Tech. and learned a sheet metal trade that landed him a job with Boeing which lasted only until the war ended. After a short stint in Logging he finished his apprenticeship in plumbing. “I worked for Barr Anderson Plumbing for awhile then went north to Kemano. I was there for sixteen months

and built up a pretty good bank account. We got to come home on a regular basis and it’s no coincidence the births of my two youngest coincide with those visits home.” Eventually Austin became a plumbing inspector for the City Of Burnaby, taught night school courses and retired after thirty-one years as the Chief Plumbing Inspector. Over the years, the couple have kept active and since moving next to Newlands Golf Course in Langley twenty-four years ago, they have been avid golfers. “I don’t play much anymore,” says Austin. “A shoulder injury has ended my golfing which is too bad. I have four holes in one and Pam has five so I guess I won’t catch her now.” Pam speaks proudly of her family. “We have three children , Gail, Lynn and Jim, three grandkids and three and a half great grandchildren. Family has always been important to us and has kept us close all these years. Sports has been at the center of our family, the Burnaby Winter Club was a second home to us. We are always supportive of our children and theirs and they are always there for us.” When asked to give advice, Austin says, “Keep out of each other’s way, be practical and look after yourselves.” Pam thinks today’s young people start with too much. “Take your time, you don’t need it all at once.” “We’ve had rough times like everyone but we have survived and moved on,” shares Pam. Austin recalls, “A brought a buddy home for dinner one night when we both been at the pub too long. When he left, Pam came in with her coat on, her suitcase packed and said she wouldn’t put up with that behavior and she was leaving. Fortunately for me she didn’t drive and she was scared of the dogs barking down the street so she came back. But I got the message.” Listening to them politely share their conversations and views on a long marriage, it’s easy to see why they have enjoyed each other’s company for so long. Pam and Austin will be celebrating their sixty-fifth anniversary at home in Langley with their family.

Who said retirement living couldn’t be fun?
Silver Secrets: Focus on Food L ilian n e Fuller
Once I turned 55, the most important thing in life for me became food. It’s something I think about all the time and I don’t go hungry very often. I’m lucky because my husband Topher enjoys cooking and is a wonderful cook. Me, not so much. Many years ago when we first got married, I cooked him breakfast. He took a bite and said; “Please don’t ever do that again,” So I didn’t. These days the best things I can make are reservations. But with me

being a starving writer and Topher being on a pension, it’s important for us to make our dining out dollar stretch. Here are a few silver secrets I’ve discovered and want to share with you. One of the best deals in town for a nice sit down breakfast is the Morning Glory Café. Located on the one way section of downtown Langley this restaurant has been a fixture for a long time. This is because the food is great and the service exceptional. There are lots of items for the whole family and for seniors the restaurant offers

Every Thursday is Senior’s Day for those of us who are 55+. From 2 until 10, you’ll get 15% off any item on the menu. We’ve enjoyed dinner there and have always found the food was delicious and the large portions make it a good value for the money. Denny’s are located at 201-8855-202 Street. Phone number is 604-888-6073. For food and camaraderie, look no further than the Aldergrove Veterans & Senior’s Society.

Lunch is served at noon and if you become a member (only $12.00 per year) you can have your meal for a dollar less. There’s more to the Aldergrove Veterans & Seniors Society than food so call 604-856-3271 for information. Another silver secret is the Food and Friends Program coordinated by Langley Meals On Wheels. The program is
Tuesday, June 17, 2014 21
offered at numerous locations. For the very affordable price of $5 seniors and older adults can meet for a nutritious meal, enjoy some good company and listen to an informative speaker. Bob’s Bar & Grill in Aldergrove loves the Food & Friends Program so much that they host a meal every week instead of every month. Call Langley Meals on Wheels at 604-533-1679 for details and summer locations. Lastly, if going out for meals isn’t your thing and you like to cook there’s an affordable option available if you live in Langley City. A monthly program offered through the City of Langley and the Langley Seniors Resources Centre is the Healthy Living Bags Program. Seniors can pre-order a large bag of produce and fruit for only $5. You can order as many bags as you wish and depending on the season, you’ll find apples, pears, potatoes, cucumbers and much more. Also included in the bag are recipes, nutritional tips and ideas for healthy eating. This is a monthly program and only available for residents of Langley City. Call the Langley Senior’s Resource Centre at 604-530-3020 for more information. I love to eat and Topher loves to cook so we get along great in the kitchen. Now if I could figure out a way to avoid doing the dishes.

It’s been 30 years since Charlotte Diamond first stepped onto a stage and began delighting children and adults alike with her catchy original songs. Each time she plays Octopus (Slippery Fish), The Laundry or I Am a Pizza, the Richmond-based performer is accustomed to looking out over the crowd and seeing her young audience singing along with their favourite songs. Even the ones who are too small to know all the words will try to gesture along with the sign language that she incorporates into her act, she said. It’s been happening that way for three decades, and still, entertaining children holds the same shine for Diamond that it did when she was just starting out. Perhaps it’s not too surprising, since her chosen career was inspired all those years ago, by the time she spent singing to her own sons, Matthew and Tom. Today, as the grandmother of two boys — aged seven and four — she has a new source from which to draw her energy and inspiration. “Maybe that’s why I’m so active at this age,” she said. “Experience makes it easy to do shows . . . . Now I’m introducing new songs that I’m developing with my grandsons. When I’m on stage, I’m definitely enjoying myself. “It is amazing how fulfilling my music career has been and how the music continues with each new generation.” This Saturday (June 21) Diamond will step onto the stage in Langley for the first time in several years, with a performance at Walnut Grove Family Day celebrations. “This is the busiest I think I’ve ever been,” said Diamond, who performs all over Canada and the U.S. and has even done shows in Costa Rica. She also has a new board book coming out for small children. Titled Slippery Fish, it is illustrated by a Hawaiian artist. However busy she is, Diamond will always make time for smaller, local events like Walnut Grove Family Day. “At the 30-year mark of my career, I like to do community events. I think they’re so important,” she said, acknowledging Kim Wishinski of Kids in the Grove, who is sponsoring Diamond’s performance. The Langley woman’s uncle, Bob Wishinski, who has since passed away, played keyboard in Diamond’s Hug Bug Band. These days, her own son, Matthew Diamond, now 38, joins her on stage, playing electric guitar and singing back-up vocals and harmonies. “He’s very captivating on stage,” said Diamond. And his presence is something that

On Saturday, June 21, children’s entertainer Charlotte Diamond returns to Langley for the first time in several years, with a performance at the Walnut Grove Family Day celebration. She will take the stage with her Hug Bug Band at 11:30 a.m. appeals to the parents in the crowd, who are of a similar age. “They’ll pick up on some of the goofy things Matt does. He’s always pulling tricks on mom,” she chuckled. In addition to entertaining, Diamond, a former middle school teacher, remains dedicated to educating children through her music. Her song, Leave the World a Little Bit Better, for example, is less about making her audience giggle than it is about helping them to understand their role in making the world a cleaner, kinder place. For Diamond, that also means doing her small part, to draw the world together with song. She had the opportunity to just do that
on three separate trips to Costa Rica, in 1997, ’98 and 2001 — visits which were facilitated by Unicef, the First Lady of the U.S. and the Canadian Embassy. With the help of a friend in Mexico, Diamond, who also performs in French, translated some of her songs into Spanish. “That was so fun, working with preschoolers and with adults and whole families. “I think that cemented my confidence that I could perform and record in Spanish,” she said. Whether she’s playing in Central America or a Spanish speaking area of the U.S., Diamond is tickled when her young audience starts singing Soy Una Pizza (I Am a Pizza) or Todo El Mundo Come Banana (All the Na-
tions Like Banana) with her. “They need to know to be proud of their language,” she said. “And wherever we come from, we need to be proud of our language.” The third annual Walnut Grove Family Day celebration takes place on June 21, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Walnut Grove Community Park, 8919 Walnut Grove Dr. Diamond takes the stage at 11:30 a.m. In addition to Diamond’s performance, there will be entertainment by local talent Bird Dawg, Cambree Lovesy, Kristal Barret and Mike Steen. Other activities will include games for all ages, Remax balloon and bouncy castle, pony rides, petting zoo, clowns, face painting, bingo and plenty of food.

Kids dig history? Send them to camp at the museum PIONEER PASTIMES, JUNIOR ARCHEOLOGY AMONG ACTIVITIES OFFERED THIS SUMMER Some old-fashioned fun designed to entertain and educate kids will be offered this summer when the Langley Centennial Museum offers a series of day camps. The camps, which are for children of various ages and interests, run June 30 to late August at the museum, located at 9135 King St. in Fort Langley. “Our museum camps are a great way for parents to provide their children with fun and educational experiences over the summer,” said Township of Langley Cultural Services Manager Peter Tulumello. “Learning gained through exploration and fun activities almost always remains in the minds of children longer than other learning experiences do.” Focused on arts, culture, heritage, and fun, the museum’s summer schedule
launches with Pioneer Pastimes. This camp takes children back in time to when their great grandparents were young. Back then, having summer fun meant hiking, exploring, berry picking, helping mom in the kitchen, making stuff from scraps of materials and paper, and playing old fashioned games. The Pioneer Pastimes camp is for children aged six through 10 and includes a visit to the Fort Langley National Historic Site and a trip to a local fruit farm. History themed summer activities are also offered for eight to 12-year-olds in the Diggin’ Around Archeology camp. Kids can learn about archeological digs, treasure hunting, and more while exploring nearby sites and locations. The camp — which is for kids who aren’t

afraid of dirty fingernails or dusty, grassstained clothing — runs Aug. 18 to 22, and fills up fast. A preschool version of this camp called Little Diggers will also be offered from Aug. 11 to Aug. 15. Planes, Trains, and Automobiles returns this year for children aged 6 to 10. An exploration of the world of travel over the past century, the camp includes visits to Langley Regional Airport, the Museum of Flight, the CN Train Station Museum, and the BC Farm Machinery Museum. The museum will also offer several fun activities that will allow youngsters to unleash their imaginations and enjoy a little healthy competition. Youth between the ages of 10 and 14 can participate in a Reality TV Camp where Survivor meets the

Youth theatre camp sign-up on now Young aspiring actors, 10 to 15 years old, are invited to register now for a nine-day theatre camp in August. Bard in the Valley, the Langley Players and the City of Langley are joining forces again this summer to create this opportunity for Langley’s youth. Up to 15 young people will be introduced to improv theatre techniques and games, plot development, script writing, costume designing, makeup application, set design, set construction and set decorating, stage managing, production team building and back stage cooperation. The camp will be held at the Langley Playhouse, so the young actors will have the thrill of presenting a show on the Playhouse stage for their friends and family on the final Friday evening.

The camp will be led by Loryn LeGear. LeGear has an associates diploma for performing arts, as well as extensive drama experience and delivery of youth drama camps throughout the Fraser Valley. Dates: • Tuesday, Aug. 5 to Friday, Aug. 8, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. • Monday, Aug. 11 to Thursday, Aug. 14, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. • Friday, Aug. 15, noon to 8 p.m. Show time: • Friday, Aug. 15, 7 p.m. to 8 p.m. followed by a Celebration of Success Cost: $100 for each participant (discounted fees will be offered if required).

In brief: pictures of worth and thousands of words People and Places Random strangers and remote locations. These are the common threads of Bill and Alexandra Edmonds’ art. Both of the artists, whose work will be on display at the Fort Gallery, beginning on Wednesday, June 18 have taken notable journeys — one into the unchartered territories of social chat sites, the other into physically inaccessible areas. The resulting images vary in mood and atmosphere, illustrating the lack of human connection and the bleakness of isolation. The public is invited to explore “People and Places,” during an opening reception at the Fort Gallery on Saturday, June 21, from 7 p.m to 9 p.m. The show runs from Wednesday June 18 to Sunday, July 6. Gallery hours are noon to 5 p.m., Wednesday to Sunday, at 9048 Glover Road, Fort Langley. For more information, visit fortgallery.ca.
Call to Artists The sixth annual Langley Art Studio Tour is in the planning stages and will take place Sept. 20-21 and 27-28. This year, the tour will focus more on working studios. Visitors on the tour will see the artists’ working spaces and the various creative processes, as well as be able to chat with the artists. All studios are indoors, so weather is not a factor. Demonstration times at various studios will be noted in the guide map available online and at a variety of locations about a month before the tour dates. The tour will include a variety of new and returning artists, featuring pastels, watercolour paintings, coloured pencil drawings and of course oil and acrylic paintings to mixed media, pottery, glass works and hopefully more. As well, artists who do not have a studio

You & The Law his move and there was no guarantee they would. He also faced a potential $400,000 legal liability related to his business in an unresolved customer law suit. Though Ralph earned about $200,000 (and Ann made over $40,000 in dividend income) a year, the couple had little house equity and few other assets. So a great deal turned on how a “book of business” (and the potential related debt) should be treated.
Here, Ralph (all names changed) and Ann had started living together in 1993. They got married in 2000 and split up in 2009. They had one child under four and another less than a year old when they broke up. Ralph worked at a brokerage firm as a financial adviser and had such a “book of business” at the time of the split. When he first got into the investment business, he bought a retiring adviser’s book of business for $175,000. When he moved to his new firm in 2004, about 88 per cent of his previous clients came along, though that wasn’t a condition of

The appeal court pointed out that a book of business may represent the most significant asset when a marriage breaks up. If it isn’t treated as property and a family asset, the spouse who built it up could sell it shortly after the break-up and keep all the money. Investment firms put a value on a new hire’s book of business (though the court wasn’t told here exactly how that’s calculated). And Ralph had paid for a book of business when he started out. The court decided that a book of business is property like “goodwill,” in this case to be shared equally between Ralph and Ann (along with the related potential debt). There are other occupations – like real estate agents, mortgage brokers, lawyers – where a book of business may come into play when divvying up family property. And while the court dealt with this thorny question under the pre-2013 law, its approach in this case will no doubt have an influence under the new law too.
A just-released decision by our B.C. appeal court had to grapple with that question.

PRESENTS Is a book of business family property?
Take a financial advisor who works at a brokerage firm. She looks after other people’s money and over the years builds relationships with her customers. If she decides to move to another firm, some of them (maybe most) will move their accounts and go with her. But of course they don’t have to, and the old firm may try to hang on to them. Good customer relationships are obviously valuable – but can personal connections like that be called property?

When married couples split up, they have to deal with how to divide their property (like a house or RRSPs bought during the marriage) and debts. Often, one spouse stays home and raises the children while the other builds up a business. The new B.C. law that came into effect in March, 2013 (the Family Law Act) makes clear that a business or an interest in a business, owned by one spouse when the couple splits, is also family property – so it’s an asset that has to be divided up. But what exactly counts as property?

Warriors down Stars in overtime They needed overtime, but the Warriors are champions of Valley Ball Hockey Association’s pup division after defeating the Valley Stars 2-1. The game was one of six VBHA division finals played at the George Preston Recreation Centre on Saturday (June 14), with the winners extending their season by advancing to their respective provincial championships. The Warriors were up against a tough foe in the Stars, who were unbeaten in the playoff round and held an impressive 17 goals for compared to just four goals against. The Warriors had gone unbeaten during the regular season but lost to the Snipers 8-3 in the playoff round. Given another shot against the same team two days later in the semifinals, the Warriors booked a ticket in the finals with a 4-3 win. “We learned our lesson and knew we had to come up with something new,” said coach Craig McDougall. “The boys worked so
