Spreading its Wings

Boil water warning lifted in Aldergrove DA N F E R G US ON Time s Re po rte r

ALY S S A O’DELL L an gley Tim es

Four-year-old Lila Hjerpe watches with aunt Dana Dunham as a young monarch butterfly beats its wings for the first time in the great outdoors after being released alongside hundreds of other butterflies at Krause Berry Farms and Estate Winery Saturday (July 5). The first annual community butterfly release raised funds for the Langley Lodge and Langley Hospice Society, with donations earmarked for the development of therapeutic recreation programming and expanded palliative care and grief support programs.

It is once again safe to drink the water in Aldergrove. On Monday afternoon, Fraser Health lifted a boil water advisory that had been in place since late Friday. Samples taken since the issuance of the precautionary boil water advisory on Friday showed that the system is clean and free of any traces of coliform. Two consecutive tests have since been taken, and both the Township of Langley and Fraser Health are satisfied that the water is safe to drink and use without first being boiled. A notice issued by the Township and the Fraser Health Authority on Friday said people should boil their drinking water for at least one minute before drinking because a “low level of coliform

bacteria was detected at a water sampling point in a local neighbourhood.” The advisory applied to the municipal water supply east of 260 Street and west of 276 Street and north of 24 Avenue and south of 36 Avenue. Further sampling and testing is being conducted, the advisory says. Fraser Health recommended people flush out all water fixtures for at least a minute, drain and flush all ice-making machines in refrigerators, and drain and re-fill hot water tanks set below 45 degrees Celsius. To make sure tap water was safe, it was recommended that it be brought to a rapid, rolling boil for at least one minute before using it for drinking, making infant formula and juices, cooking, brushing teeth, washing raw foods and making ice, the notice said.

Cloverdale murder suspect arrested in Langley D AN F ERGUSO N Ti me s Re po r t e r

A Langley man wanted in connection with a Cloverdale murder was captured in his home town Friday night, police said. Barry McQuarrie was arrested inside a residential garage without incident shortly before midnight by officers of the regional Integrated Homicide Investigation Team along with Langley RCMP, the Lower Mainland Emergency Response Team, RCMP helicopter Air One and a police dog team. Police said the owners of the house were

not connected to McQuarrie. IHIT said following his arrest, the 33-yearold McQuarrie was charged with first degree murder in the May death of Gregory Quesnelle, 32, originally from southern Ontario. On May 12, just before midnight, RCMP responded to a report of a man being shot at a home near 176 Street and 57 Avenue. Quesnelle was found injured in the townhome and was taken to hospital, where he died of his wounds. Shortly after police identified McQuar-

rie as a suspect, a man called CTV News claiming to be McQuarrie. He denied killing Quesnelle, but admitted they were at odds over a woman and he had pepper sprayed his rival in self-defence days before the murder. “I didn’t go back and kill him,” the man said. “I just want them [the police] to know I’m not armed and dangerous. I’m not trying to hurt anyone. I’m just trying to stay out of jail.” He said he planned on keeping his freedom as long as possible.

“I want to enjoy as much of the summer as I possibly can,” the man said. “When the time comes after the summer, maybe I’ll hand myself in.

Court records show he has a number aliases, including Nicholas Randell McQuarrie, Richard Laary, Barry Bayer, Bad Ass Barry, and just Badass. McQuarrie appeared in court on Monday. — with files from Kevin Diakiw and CTV News

One of the first Burlington Northern Santa Fe empty coal trains to use the Southern Railway of B.C. tracks through rural Langley passes by the Sperling siding at 240 Street on Monday morning. The trains will detour through Langley and Abbotsford for the next two months.

Coal trains begin detours FRAN K B U CH O LT Z Ti m e s Re po r t e r

Empty coal trains have started rumbling through rural Langley and into downtown Abbotsford, due to construction in Washington. Two or three trains per day, each more than two kilometres long, are making their way through Langley and Abbotsford on the lightly-used Southern Railway of B.C. tracks. Representatives of both Southern Railway (SRY), which owns the former interurban tracks through eastern Langley and Abbotsford, and Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway (BNSF) confirmed talks between the two companies several weeks ago. A test run took place on Thursday, and full operations began on Monday. An empty BNSF coal train entered the west end of the SRY line at EXPIRES

232 Street about 10 a.m. Monday, and was in the United States before 12 p.m. “The plan in place will be for BNSF to reroute empty coal traffic from Roberts Bank through Abbotsford down to Sumas,” BNSF spokesperson Gus Melonas said. He said the detour plan is expected to last for 65 days. “Safety is the number one priority,” he said. BNSF is upgrading tracks and replacing two bridges between the border and Burlington, Wash. The trains normally run south from Roberts Bank, through White Rock, and enter the United States at the Peace Arch border crossing. Melonas said the trains would be around two kilometres long. They are limited to a maximum of 24 km/h through downtown Abbotsford, and double that in rural

east of the new 232 Street overpass, and climb a steep grade to traverse an area of farms, before travelling through the Gloucester Industrial Park, Bradner and Mount Lehman. The tracks then descend a steep grade to the Matsqui Prairie area of Abbotsford. The tracks then pass through an industrial area of Abbotsford and its downtown, before coming to the junction point with another BNSF line at the Canada-U.S. border. The BNSF route to Sumas is occasionally suggested as an alternative to tracks along the waterfront at White Rock and Ocean Park in South Surrey. The mayors of both White Rock and Surrey have called for removal of the tracks from the waterfront area. — with files from Tyler Olsen, Abbotsford News

Invasion charges A 35-year-old Langley man and 30-yearold Abbotsford man have been charged in a year-old violent home invasion and robbery, where the pair allegedly pretended to be police officers. On July 1, 2013, three people broke into a home in the 9800-block of Whalley Boulevard, announcing they were police. They threatened to shoot one of the residents during the break-in, and while no firearm was produced, they struck the resident with a crowbar. They made off with several items from the home, including jewelry, cellphones, a laptop and electronic equipment. Charges have now been laid against Abbotsford’s David Fitzpatrick, 30. He was charged with two counts of robbery, two counts of assault with a weapon and two counts of break and enter with intent. Langley’s Joseph Anthony Francis, 35, was arrested at a Surrey SkyTrain Station by Coquitlam RCMP and charged with the same offences.

areas, according to J. Singh Biln, SRY’s director of community relations. Biln said the trains should be able to clear Abbotsford’s railroad crossings within the federally mandated five-minute time limit. Currently, SRY runs one daily train on a return trip through downtown Abbotsford. In rural Langley, there is usually one return trip a day as well. BNSF has been hauling an increasing volume of coal from U.S. mines to Roberts Bank, and is involved in a controversial plan to build a coal transloading facility at Fraser Surrey Docks, which has prompted plenty of opposition from neighbouring residents and groups fighting climate change. The SRY tracks leave the main line to and from Roberts Bank at Livingstone, just

A 22-year-old Langley man was taken to hospital after he crashed his car into a power pole and median, closing Fraser Highway westbound at 216 Street on Monday morning. Initial investigation by police reveal that around 11:15 a.m., the man was driving at what they suspect was an excessive rate of speed westbound down Hospital Hill on Fraser Highway near 216 Street, when he lost control of his vehicle. His vehicle first hit the median then bounced into a power pole, causing major damage and a power outage that stretched throughout Murrayville and down into Langley City on Fraser Highway. Initial reports from police indicate the driver wasn’t seriously injured in the crash and was taken to Langley Memorial Hospital. Fortunately, an off-duty paramedic happened upon the collision almost immediately and provided first aid to the driver. Police expect to provide an update on the driver’s condition. The power was restored to some residents and businesses soon after the crash, but Fraser Highway westbound remained closed Monday afternoon. Langley RCMP were recommending motorists avoid the area. There was clean up to do from the crash scene, and BC Hydro is working on replacing the pole. Anyone who witnessed the crash and hasn’t spoken to police is asked to call 604-532-3200.

The B.C. Court of Appeal has overturned a Supreme Court decision that halted work on the controversial Coulter Berry building in Fort Langley. In a unanimous written ruling released Thursday (July 3), a three-judge panel said the Township of Langley council acted properly when it approved construction of the three-storey building that is bigger than the maximum size allowed in the heritage conservation area of downtown Fort Langley. Chilliwack Supreme Court Justice Joel Groves said the Township had exceeded a Township bylaw, which allows council to “vary” the restrictions on buildings in a conservation area by approving a heritage alteration permit, on the condition that the “the use or density of use may not be varied.” Groves ruled in favour of the Fort Langley Residents for Sustainable Development and against the Township on Oct. 25, 2013, halting the construction. Groves said instead of using a permit, council should have altered the zoning of the site through the usual process of public hearings. A majority of council voted to appeal the Groves decision, while at the same time moving to resume construction by adopting his suggestion of rezoning the land. Work on the project resumed after council approved

the change to a higher density earlier this year, following a public hearing that lasted three nights. That hearing and rezoning was not legally required, according to the appeal court decision, which said the bylaw governing heritage density in Langley covers residential buildings in a given area “but it is silent on the density of commercial uses in that space.” Mayor Jack Froese called the ruling “very, very, very reassuring.” If the decision had been allowed to stand, Froese said it would have set a precedent that would have limited the ability of all B.C. municipalities to manage development. “It’s important that decisions like this be made by elected councils, not the courts,” Froese said. Froese was unable to say how much the legal battle cost the Township. Coulter Berry builder Eric Woodward called the court battle “a pointless, sad chapter in Fort Langley’s history.” “The court challenge really hurt the construction contractors and their families, the merchants, and Fort Langley as a whole more than me,” Woodward said in an emailed response to a Times query. “I never doubted that the original heritage alteration permit process was the correct one,” Woodward went on to say. “I always felt Justice Groves made a mistake, with a hasty,

emotional decision from the bench.” Woodward said the appeal court ruling also addresses those critics who claimed he and council were breaking the law. “It certainly is great to have that clearly contradicted by the Court of Appeal, where they seemed to consider the nuance and implications of their actions much more seriously,” Woodward said. A written statement issued by the Society of Fort Langley Residents For Sustainable Development expressed disappointment. “This should be of concern to all those interested in the protection of a Heritage Conservation Area for future generations,” the society statement, released by Harold Whittell, said. “We were hoping common sense would prevail,” Whittell said. “Leaving this power [to decide density] solely in the hands of an elected three-year council seems dangerous to the overall intention of the declaration of a Heritage Conservation Area.” Whittell said the society would continue to work to preserve the heritage conservation area in Fort Langley “for the benefit and enjoyment of future generations.” “It is sad that the hard work of so many over the years can be forever altered by so few, so quickly,” Whittell said.

Yorkson parking report blasted

THREE-SOME THREE E-S SOME DAY DAYS S AT POTTE POTTERS

A report that declares there is enough available parking in the Yorkson neighbourhood of Willoughby was called “a waste of taxpayers’ money” by two spokespersons for a resident’s association at the June 23 Langley Township council meeting. Levy Manuel and Ashish Kapoor were responding to a report by Township transportation engineering manager Paul Cordeiro which said the results of a Township-funded survey “indicate that overall, there is sufficient parking through the community.” Manuel said the study focused on available parking for residents when it should have concentrated on the issue that concerns most people in Yorkson, a lack of parking spaces for friends and family. “The primary focus [for us] is visitor parking, not residential,” Manuel said. Kapoor, a data analyst, said the findings of the Township-funded survey were “basically, not reliable” because the company hired by the Township only spent six hours collecting information; three hours on a weekday and another three hours on a weekend. As a result, the margin of error is more than 55 per cent, meaning the conclusions of the survey “can’t be trusted,” Kapoor said. “I think that’s just a waste of

Ashish Kapoor and Levy Manuel told Township council a survey of the parking problem in their neighbourhood was a waste of taxpayers’ money. taxpayers’ money,” Kapoor said. Cordeiro defended the survey, saying it shows there is space to accommodate visitors to Yorkson. “There is parking available on driveways,” Cordeiro said. “For whatever reason, people are choosing not to use the substantial parking space in their driveways.” Councillor Bob Long suggested signs that set time limits on street parking might help reduce congestion. Cordeiro said enforcement would be “onerous” for Town-

ship bylaw enforcement staff. “If we have to go out there and enforce, then so be it,” Long replied. The idea won majority support. Councillors voted unanimously to have Township staff meet with Yorkson residents and representatives of the development industry to discuss the signs and other possible measures tio improve parking. An attempt by Councillor Kim Richter to add a requirement that staff act “immediately” failed to win enough support.

Four arrested in Langley dial-a-dope ring bust FRAN K B U CH O LT Z Ti m e s Re po r t e r

Four people have been arrested and charged following a lengthy investigation by Langley RCMP into a “dial-a-dope” operation. Facing a variety of charges are Mikhail Marinov, 30, of Burnaby; Ruslan Makhmudov, 38, believed to be a Richmond resident; and Langley residents Tyson Tull, 39, and Ashley Smits, 20. Marinov and Makhmudov have been charged with one count each of instructing an offence — trafficking in cocaine and heroin for the benefit of a criminal organization, and conspiracy to traffic cocaine and heroin. They appeared in court on Thursday, June 26 and have been remanded in custody, until a bail hearing on Thursday, July 10. Tull and Smits are each charged with one

count of committing an offence — trafficking cocaine and heroin, for the benefit of a criminal organization and conspiracy to traffic cocaine and heroin. Tull is also facing two counts of possession of cocaine for the purpose of trafficking. Smits is also charged with trafficking in a controlled substance, possession of cocaine for the purpose of trafficking and possession of heroin for the purpose of trafficking. Tull and Smits also appeared in court on June 26. They were both released on bail and will next appear in court on July 22. Langley RCMP Drug Section began its investigation in 2012. Police allege a group trafficking crack, powder cocaine and heroin in Langley operated what is referred to as a “dial-a-dope” phone line. Due to the call volume on the original line, a second Langley City “dial-a-dope” line number was generated.

“Criminal organization investigations are extremely complex and require a significant amount of time and effort to assemble the documentation necessary for Crown charge approval,” Langley RCMP spokesman Cpl. Holly Marks said in a press release. For nearly a year, the activities of the group were monitored by officers in the drug section and a number of suspects were identified as possible managers and bosses of the “dial-a-dope” line. The drugs being sold were kept in rented “stash houses” throughout the Lower Mainland. The group moved to five different “stash houses” in a period of one year. Police allege these houses were used for cooking crack, bulk packaging of drugs and counting and processing money. Over the course of the investigation, drugs were seized on four separate occa-

sions. Approximate weights of the seized substances are nearly 600 grams of crack cocaine, 100 grams of powder cocaine, and 230 grams of heroin. Just over $8,000 of cash was seized. Police estimate the total value of the cash and drugs at over $140,000. Four vehicles were seized. Two have been referred to civil forfeiture and police will be seeking criminal forfeiture of a third. The fourth was returned to the leasing company. Sgt. Jason Wilde of Langley Drug Section said “Investigations such as this one require an immense amount of resources, effort and commitment on the part of the officers on my team. We are committed to targeting those responsible for running these operations — the “bosses” and “managers.” Continued Page 7

City residents given say on townhouses BRENDA A NDER SON Times R ep or ter

Residents of an older Langley City neighbourhood under redevelopment were scheduled to get a chance to have their say on a pair of proposed townhouse developments on Monday night. Two proposals to build townhouse complexes north of the Nicomekl River â&#x20AC;&#x201D; an area designated for multi-family developments â&#x20AC;&#x201D; received first and second reading on June 23. The issue was to go to public hearing at councilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s meeting on July 7. The first development includes a plan to build 28 townhouses in the 19700 block of 55A Avenue.

The other proposal is for 24 units to be constructed at 20030, 20040 and 20050 Michaud Cres. and along 201 Street between 53 and 54 Avenues. During councilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s discussion on June 23, concerns were raised by Councillor Dave Hall over the issue of parking in and around townhouse complexes. In each development, the townhouse units include garage space for residents, and visitor parking is also provided. But Hall suggested that, as often happens, many of the garages may be used as storage space, causing vehicles to â&#x20AC;&#x153;spill outâ&#x20AC;? onto the street and into visitor stalls.

Question langeytimes.com

A B.C. Court of Appeal ruling on the Coulter Berry building, which stated unanimously that Langley Township council had the right to proceed with approval of the building under a Heritage Alteration Permit, makes one thing very clear — it is very hard to fight city hall in court, and come out on the winning end. This should cause those thinking of fighting municipal decisions in court to think carefully and research widely before commencing a lawsuit. Chances are, they will spend a lot of money on lawyers and court costs, and be unsuccessful in the end. Chief Justice Robert Bauman, who wrote the Court of Appeal decision, states clearly that municipal councils have a considerable degree of latitude in making land use decisions. This latitude has been granted both in common law (past court decisions), but also through legislation. Thus courts are reluctant to enter the battle between municipalities and aggrieved citizens. Section 4(1) of the Community Charter, adopted in 2003, states that “The powers conferred on municipalities and their councils under this Act or the Local Government Act must be interpreted broadly in accordance with the purpose of those acts and in accordance with municipal purposes.” He agreed with the Township’s legal submission that the Local Government Act’s purpose is “to provide local governments with the flexibility to respond to the differing needs and changing circumstances of their communities.” Langley Township Mayor Jack Froese said, on hearing that the Township’s appeal was successful, that “This ruling brings clarity to municipalities’ decision-making powers.” Indeed it does. While some people who oppose some municipal decisions may feel the courts and legislature are conspiring to deprive individuals of rights to disagree and challenge a council decision, in fact that isn’t the case. As the chief justice notes, there has been a conscious move by all arms of government to ensure that municipalities have flexibility. It makes far more sense for locally-elected officials to make decisions on matters in their community, instead of federal or provincial legislators, or judges. There is accountability as well. Those who disagree with a council decision can work towards voting in new members of council. In just a few months, Langley Township voters will choose the nine members of the next council, which (for the first time) will be in power for four years. This court decision emphasizes the importance of holding councillors accountable at the ballot box. There is one other reason that challenging municipal decision in court isn’t often a good idea. Municipalities can spend unlimited funds on lawyers and court proceedings. They are funded by taxpayers. Any individual or group wishing to challenge them must pay out of their own pockets. The advantage clearly is with municipalities.

Answer online at www.langleytimes.com

Speed limits divide they

Last Wednesday the provincial government announced new, higher speed limits on 35 sections of rural highways, with more promised for later in the summer. In total, drivers will be able to put their gas foot down a little harder on 1,300 kms of blacktop. The Ministry of Transportion says serious crashes on provincial highways have decreased 28 per cent since 2003. Cars are safer, drivers have more technology and education at their disposal. Enforcement is better. While lead-footed drivers and owners of sports cars may celebrate the decision, not everyone is happy. The RCMP who patrol many of those highways and attend to the carnage that sometimes results from excessive speeding don’t like the new limits. ICBC is worried about safety and vows to monitor stretches of highway with the new limits. Truckers aren’t pleased with the new limits either. The B.C. Trucking Association says many drivers will stick to their current speed policies because the faster a fully loaded truck travels, the longer it takes to stop. Too many drivers already treat speed limits as a suggestion, rather than law. Their threshold has just been raised. — Burnaby News Leader

Teachers praised Editor: I am responding to the letter to the editor titled “Blame the province,” (The Times, July 3), and concur with the writer’s comments. I am a member of CUPE Local 1260, an administrative assistant at R.E. Mountain Secondary and have had the distinct pleasure of working for the past 25 years with some awesome teachers. On Friday, I was beginning the task of creating new files in preparation for the new school year, when I came across a lovely little book titled “What Do You Make?” It is a book for and about teachers by Tom Hierck. I later took a few minutes to read this little book, reflecting on this gift that was presented to staff a few years ago by our school administrators at the beginning of the school year. Here are some excerpts from this book. In my opinion, they are very profound. “The dinner guests were seated around a table discussing public education. One man, a CEO, decided to explain the problem. “What’s a kid going to learn,” he argued, “from someone who decided the best option in life was to become a teacher?” “You’re a teacher, Kristin,” he said. “Be honest. What do you make?” “I make kids work harder than they ever thought they could. I can make a C+ feel like an Olympic gold medal for the student who gave it everything … and an A- feel like a knot in the stomach, if the effort wasn’t the very best it could be. I make kids apologize, because they know it’s the right thing to do.” Teachers do make a difference, and deserve to be treated fairly by the government, as do all school employees. We are all suffering during this turmoil. It is high time for the minister of education and the premier to put their hearts together for a fair resolve to these current negotiations, because it is the right thing to do. DONNA MASON, PRESIDENT, CUPE LOCAL 1260, (LANGLEY SCHOOL DISTRICT)

Selfless act July 1 Editor: On the evening of July 1 (Canada Day), my 90-year-old mother managed to catch a bus without a bus pass and not any money that I know of. She found her way to Langley. She has a mild case of Alzheimer’s and is not the same mother I knew just a few short years ago. She took in some Canada Day events and afterwards wandered aimlessly, nearly being hit by a vehicle. An exceptionally kind-hearted individual took my mother into their own car and dropped her off at the local RCMP, to be returned to us. I just wanted to say “Thank you.” Without your selfless act, my mother may not have been returned to us. You went above and beyond the call of duty. From the bottom of heart, I wanted to express my deepest appreciation and kindness. JIM CHAN, RICHMOND

D A N FE R GUS ON Langley Time s

Teachers rallied outside Langley MLA Mary Polak’s constituency office in June, shortly before the B.C. Teachers Federation mounted a full-scale strike. The contract dispute between the BCTF and employers has not been resolved.

Teachers do more than teach

Editor: Joy Stadnyk makes some valid points in her letter (The Times, July 3.) However, she may not realize that the teachers did make cuts in their wage demands in order to reduce class size and limit the number of special needs students in their classrooms. I am a retired teacher and have lived with this decision for many years, as it affects all later salary increases as well as pensions, which are based on earnings. What she may also not realize is that the Liberal government has since torn up that contract and increased class sizes and also increased the number of special needs students in any one class. They did not compensate the teachers for their losses in salary over the years. Teachers do have concern for their students but must also be compensated for the five or more years of univer-

sity with no pay. The two months summer holidays are nice but not the great perk that many think. It takes at least two weeks to “wind down” from the hectic last month of school with marking, report card preparation, class “parties,” graduation ceremonies, etc. and at least a week before school opens to prepare for the next year. There is no overtime pay or days in lieu of. These comments are not meant as complaining, as I had 36 years of very rewarding and interesting work, but I think people need to realize that teachers have needs and their students are one of, but not their only, consideration. LYLE PHILLIPS, LANGLEY

Justice prevailed on Coulter Berry Editor: As a taxpaying Langley Township homeowner, regular shopper in Fort Langley and a believer in justice and the law, my husband and I are glad this Coulter Berry lawsuit is done like dinner. For Eric Woodward and Shelly Roche, 2014 will be a won-

derful year. I had no doubt. The truth is the truth.

July 1 is Canada Day, not International Day

Editor: Looking at the front page of your paper, I didn’t realize that it was International Day. It was Canada Day, you know, Canada’s birthday. You seem to want to add In-

ternational Day to your headline. If you want that, then have an International Day on, say, July 4. DALE MILLER, LANGLEY

This year, guests can see two baby beaver, a record 14 Bambi-like fawns to watching the funny antics of kits (baby raccoons). That’s why Martin urges people to register for a tour first and that will provide you a time to return for your tour. Then people can enjoy the live entertainment, fun with the firefighters and barbecue lunch. Lots of activities for kids like the Stilt Walker & Bucky “The Beaver” on Saturday and

PRESIDENT’S REPORT

President Simpson and the Board are Ready for Another Successful Year

as a transportation route and to address concerns re flooding.

t is hard to believe that a full year has passed since I was sworn in as President, and I thank the Membership for the opportunity to serve another term in this capacity.

This past year has presented many changes and challenges for your Board of Directors. At the Board level, Past President Angie Quaale and Community Director Sharon Newberry stepped down to announce their candidacy in the 2014 Municipal elections – we wish them both the best of luck. Our Secretary-Treasurer Eric Wilson and Directors John Claus and Mary Reeves decided not to seek another term. To all of these individuals we express our sincere gratitude for your dedication of time, expertise and resources. You have all made a positive impact as to the ‘Voice of Business’ and betterment of the Greater Langley Chamber of Commerce. Thank you!

Special Guest Speaker

J U L Y

At the AGM in 2013 I reported that the Board would continue to work on the Chamber’s succession plan and I am pleased to advise that we are on target. This summer we will introducing our newly created Membership Sales & Marketing position with expanded time and responsibilities. We have begun to consider options for relocation, to accommodate the planned increase in staffing and services. Our Advocacy efforts this past term were quite extensive. I am happy to report that we have gained the support of Chambers throughout the province for our resolutions: calling for Provincial designation of the East-West Connector between Abbotsford Airport and Highway 99 along 16th Avenue and return of 3-year funding for approved charitable and non-profit programs in our communities. As well, a policy concerning reinstatement of a business vote, which the BC Chamber Board is revising and finalizing. During last term we attended the official announcement for the expanded Aldergrove Border Crossing – something this Chamber has been advocating for and following for nine years! We reviewed the MMBC proposal and advocated for changes in support of our small business members. We have been actively involved in the dialogue on Metro Vancouver’s proposed Bylaw 280 concerning waste management. We participated in an extensive study concerning the economic impact of the Fraser River, in which the findings will be presented to the Canadian Chamber of Commerce AGM in September in Charlottetown, PEI. We are recommending a multi-level maintenance plan to keep the river open

With regards to transportation, we congratulate the Mayors Council on their recent announcement concerning the movement of goods, services and people within the region and steps to address the much needed infrastructure. We urge all levels of government to work together to identify appropriate funding sources, and to clearly inform the public of the most economical and fair solutions. Last week we had the pleasure of working with MP Mark Warawa, the Taiwan Trade Centre and Taipei Economic and Cultural Office to explore trade opportunities with Taiwan and to consider Taiwan as ‘bridge’ to mainland China markets. A major focus of the Board has been to improve our programs, services and communications, and to increase member engagement. Through our committees we have accomplished the vast majority of goals identified and will carry others forward into the Board Planning Session to take place later this month. Within the Chamber Network the landscape is constantly changing as issues arise at all levels that affect business success in Canada, the Province of BC and here at home in the City and Township of Langley. We greatly appreciate the relationship the Chamber enjoys with all of our elected representatives and look forward to continuing to work together to improve trade and commerce and Langley, and to address concerns of business. To the 2013-14 Board Members, our staff and Committee Volunteers – thank you for your efforts and support. On behalf of the newly elected Board, we look forward to continuing the efforts of the past 82 Boards of Directors to strengthen the Greater Langley Chamber of Commerce as the Voice of Business in our community, and to ensure that Langley continues to be a great place to live, work, play and conduct business.

Thunder silenced on Island road trip

DAN FER GUSON L an gley Tim es

Langley Junior Blazeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Cole Cantelon connects for the hit during his teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 5-4 victory over the visiting Victoria Junior Mariners on Sunday at McLeod Park. The Blaze have won 11 straight games and lead the league with a 28-2 record.

Jr. Blaze remain on fire

Four more victories have pushed the Langley Junior Blaze winning streak to 11 games. The U16 baseball club swept a pair of doubleheaders over the weekend at McLeod Park, beating the Nanaimo Junior Pirates 11-1 and 5-1 on Saturday and then winning twice more 5-4 and 8-1 on Sunday over the Victoria Junior Mariners. The results improve Langley to a B.C. Junior Premier Baseball League-leading record of 28-2. The first game against Nanaimo saw Jesse Unger drive in five runs, which was more than enough offence for pitcher Jake Polancic, who struck out four and allowed one run over five innings.

Game two was tied at one through the first five and a half innings, but in the bottom of the sixth, the Blaze scored four times in the 5-1 victory. Cole Cantelon, Dominic Baptista, Quintin Nakamura and Yi-Fan Pan had an RBI apiece. Yi-An Pan went the distance on the mound, allowing three hits and striking out four. Against Victoria the next day, Langley was trailing 4-3 and down to three outs. After Broden Bydeweg tied the score on an error, Langley had the bases loaded with two outs. And Yi-An Pan singled to left-field, scoring Baptista for the winning run.

Unger, Nakamura and Jaron Jeske each had an RBI. Aiden Mordecai picked up the win, striking out three and allowing just one hit and one walk over two innings. Parker Logan struck out five in five innings of work. And the weekend concluded with Langley erasing an early 1-0 deficit, thanks to a six-run second inning en route to an 8-1 win. Yi-An Pan and Cantelon each drove in a pair of runs. Yi-Fan Pan threw a complete game with six strikeouts. Langley is back in action on tomorrow (Wednesday) as they visit the Abbotsford Junior Cardinals at Delair Park.

With a chance to give themselves some breathing room in the Western Lacrosse Association playoff chase, the Langley Thunder are instead stuck in a pack of four teams separated by three points for a trio of post-season berths. The senior A Thunder were on Vancouver Island over the weekend where they lost to both the firstplace team and the last-place team. The former happened on July 4 at Victoriaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Q Centre, where Langley lost 12-6 to the Shamrocks (10-1-2). The latter was the following night, a 15-12 defeat at the hands of the Nanaimo Timbermen (3-8-1). And it was the latter defeat which really hurt as the Thunder led 6-1 after 20 minutes. But the Timbermen scored seven in the second to cut the deficit to 10-8 and then dominated the third, outscoring their visitors 7-2.

Athan Iannucci (five goals, two assists) and Alex Turner (three goals, five assists) led the way offensively for the Thunder. The game before saw Langley fall behind 4-0 after one period. They did cut the lead to 4-3 in the second, but could not get any closer. Turner led the way with three goals and an assist and is just two points back of the WLA scoring title with 25 goals and 58 points. Langley sits fourth in the standings at 6-7 with five games to play. Four of those will be at the Langley Events Centre, including their next game, July 9 against the Burnaby Lakers (6-5). â&#x20AC;˘â&#x20AC;˘â&#x20AC;˘ The Langley Junior A Thunder came to a close on July 4 as they lost 15-4 to the Delta Islanders. The Thunder finished with a record of 5-15-1.

Lacrosse team tops at Canada Day tournament A team of California all-stars were no match for the Langley Thunder. The Thunder defeated the Cali*Lax AllStars 6-5 in the midget A1 gold medal game at the Calgary District Lacrosse Canada Day tournament. The 38th annual box lacrosse tournament ran June 28 to June 30. Langley finished the tournament with a perfect 4-0 round robin record, outscoring their foes by a com-

won gold last month at the Rio Tinto Alcan Dragonboat Regatta in Vancouver. The team of 20 women, plus a drummer, steerperson and coach Cheryl McIntosh, took top spot in the womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s C division. The Sundragons competed in three races and finished with a time of 2:26.790, nearly three seconds ahead of Raise a Little Swell (2:29.440). The regatta was held June 20 to June 22.

In 1939, (at the age of 15), Glenn ran off to join the Canadian Artillery, served the duration, wounded following the Dday landing. Discharge, then enlistment in the Canadian Navy brought Korea and in 1950 also a wife. In 1951 Glenn secured employment with the VPD. A career that spanned decades, positions and further fueled the material for the nostalgia he so colourfully regaled to all who would listen. Glenn was tragically predeceased by his only son Garth in 1972 and wife Adele in 2007. Special thanks to Bonnie and Arnold for their steadfast presence in his life. He was a warm and caring person hidden beneath a rough exterior. If you can complete the following rhyme you knew him best...â&#x20AC;?Away away with fife and drum.
