IHIT looking at timeline MONIQUE TA MMING A Time s Re po rte r

The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team is now looking for information from the public about the whereabouts and comings and goings of all the Janzen family members, in the three weeks leading up to May 7. If you spoke to or saw any of the Janzen family in the last weeks of April, call the IHIT tip line at 1-877-551-4448. Plans for memorial services are underway, said Bethel Mennonite Church pastor Phil Wheaton. Murder victim Shelly Janzen was a lifelong member, and brother Randy attended occasionally with his legally blind mother Kathy, before she passed away last August. There is no immediate family left, following the three murders and suicide. Pastor Wheaton is still coming to grips to what has happened to a family he knew so well. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Randy was thoughtful, careful. This just doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t fit in anyway whatsoever,â&#x20AC;? said Wheaton. â&#x20AC;&#x153;His actions are so out of character. There must have been some sort of perfect storm happening inside his head.â&#x20AC;? In the meantime, members of Chilliwackâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s music and performing arts community have come together to honour talented singer Emily Janzen in creating the Emily Janzen Memorial Bursary Fund. Emily, 19, was a talented singer and her debilitating headaches stopped her from continuing with her goals. So far the Indiegogo campaign has raised more than $2,000 in less than three days. The Indiegogo page is at: igg.me/at/emilyjanzen.

A burned out shell is all that remains of a house on Llanberis Way in Popkum, near Chilliwack, where three bodies were recovered following an explosion and fire on Thursday. Police believe the homeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s owner, Randy Janzen, killed his daughter, Emily, and his wife, Laurel in the house before going to the Aldergrove home of his sister, Shelly Janzen and killing her. It is believed he then returned to the Popkum house and, after a four-hour standoff with police, committed suicide.

Community grants tightened up by Township council

BLOODY MAN STAGGERS THROUGH ALDERGROVE

‘WE LOOK AFTER OUR OWN’ D AN FERGU SO N Ti m e s Re po r t e r

Community groups will have to show they serve mostly Township of Langley residents if they want to get municipal grants in the future. Under a we-look-after-our-own rule adopted Monday, applicants for Township money must now prove that most of their members are Township residents and that a majority of the people they serve are Township residents. If they can’t, the amount of money they get may be trimmed to reflect the actual percentage. Non-profits will have to submit a copy of their annual general meeting minutes, which must list their directors. The measures were unanimously approved Monday at the urging of Councillor Angie Quaale, who said Township grants “shouldn’t ever be viewed as easy money.” Councillors Kim Richter and Blair Whitmarsh were not present for the vote. Councillor Charlie Fox said the measures were “long overdue.” “It’s a bit more work [for the non-profits] but it’s not being overbearing,” Fox said. The move comes in the wake of the latest debate over the amount

of money the Township gives local non-profit groups. At their April 27 meeting, council voted to approve $334,410 in grants for more than 100 projects and organizations. It would have been $15,000 more, but that would have meant going over budget and dipping into the Township contingency fund. Most of council balked at that, and voted instead to trim the total by cutting some “Nothing Without Effort” grants that go towards community beautification efforts. During that discussion, several members of council said they favoured tightening the rules for grants to non-profit organizations. Councillor Bob Long was concerned that adding more requirements could discourage people from applying. Long said the small amount of money the Township provides to the many, largely volunteer community groups produces benefits that go beyond the dollar amounts in question. “It’s money very, very well spent,” Long told the April 27 meeting. Long said he “held his nose” and voted for the new rules on Monday, May 11, because he supports the principle of transparency.

A man was arrested for public intoxication after he was seen bloodied and staggering along 272 Street near 32 Avenue on Friday around 11:40 a.m. Passersby and eventually police and paramedics came to the aid of the injured man, who had somehow cut his wrist and then wiped his face with the blood. Paramedics treated him on site for superficial wounds. The situation was especially troubling for Aldergrove residents, as it took place at the same time that police were investigating a murder on 271A Street. That murder has now been shown to have been part of a larger murder-suicide plot, with four people dying.

QUARTERLY REPORT

Dominion Lending Centres Chief Economist Says US Style Housing Crash Unlikely in Canada Responding to recent news reports about the IMF warning of an overheated Canadian housing market, the Chief Economist for Dominion Lending Centres, Sherry Cooper, says the prospect of a soft landing is good news for homeowners, “there is no doubt that letting some steam out of the boiling markets is a good thing because were prices to rise rapidly for too long, a nasty correction would be likely.”

Bank of Canada Remains On Hold With Hopes of Economic Rebound As was widely expected, on Wednesday April 15, 2015 The Bank of Canada announced that it is maintaining its target for the overnight rate at 3/4 per cent. The Bank Rate is correspondingly 1 per cent and the deposit rate is 1/2 per cent. Core inflation, at 2 percent, is a reflection of the dampening effects of a slowing economy offset by the pass through effects of the lower dollar.

Dr. Sherry Cooper

in the January MPR); however, the second quarter is expected to see a rebound to 1.8 percent growth, revised up from earlier expectation. The Bank continues to assert that, “Underneath the effects of the oil price shock, the natural sequence of stronger non-energy exports, increasing investment, and improving labour markets is progressing.” This will be aided by an improvement in the U.S. economy and the easing in financial conditions.

Chief Economist for The Bank is hopeful Dominion Lending Centres that global growth will strengthen in coming months to 3-1/2 percent—consistent There remains a good deal of uncertainty with their forecast in January’s Monetary in this sequence: While March Policy Report (MPR)—as a direct result employment in Canada improved of central bank rate cuts and quantitative substantially, business investment easing in Europe. Lower commodity remains disappointing, manufacturing is prices will boost growth in some weak—especially in the auto sector—and countries. The Bank also believes that the improvement in trade has been less strong growth will resume in the United than expected. States after a weak first quarter, which, of Real GDP growth is projected to rebound course, has yet to be confirmed. in the second quarter and subsequently First quarter growth in Canada has been strengthen to average about 2 1/2 per revised downward to 0.0 percent in the cent on a quarterly basis until the middle April MPR (from 1.5 percent growth of 2016. The Bank expects real GDP

growth of 1.9 per cent in 2015, 2.5 per cent in 2016, and 2.0 per cent in 2017. The Bank also believes the risks to the outlook are balanced, an upgrade since the last policy meeting in March. As a result of this view, they judge that the current degree of monetary stimulus is appropriate and have left rates unchanged. I am cautiously optimistic that the Bank has got it right, but I continue to believe that the risks are on the downside for the economy and inflation. My forecast for Canadian growth this year is 1.5 percent-below the Bank’s 1.9 percent forecast. Much hinges on the U.S. economy. The April MPR revised down its U.S. growth forecast for this year from 3.2 percent to 2.7 percent.

Cooper, one of North America’s most respected economic experts, points out that existing home sales were down 2 percent year-over-year in January, but were still up moderately outside of Alberta. Later data suggests that in February, sales rose month-over-month as gains in Toronto and Vancouver offset faltering markets in other parts of the country. More recently, Sales of existing homes in Canada rose in March from February, led by gains in the big Toronto and Vancouver markets. Sales were even up in Calgary where sales had slowed in recent months in the wake of the oil price decline. “With home ownership at a record high of 70 percent of households and interest rates at record lows, national sales growth will stabilize at a modest pace,” says Cooper. “However, steady demand from immigrants and non-resident purchasers in Toronto and Vancouver should continue to support housing markets. In addition, Millennials are in their first-time homebuying years. While many might be priced out of the single-family home market, many will take the plunge into condos.” On the supply side, housing starts and completions are down and are now trending slightly above household formation rates. Taking replacement demand into consideration, the current pace of overall home construction is at appropriate levels to meet long-run demand. We have also seen evidence of a recent increase in dedicated rental housing construction as institutional investors are providing increased funding in this long-overlooked area of the housing market. Condos have effectively replaced traditional apartment units and are an affordable alternative for those who are priced out of Toronto’s detached housing market. Rental vacancy rates remain at extreme lows in Vancouver and Toronto. Cooper says the bottom line is that there is little evidence of an upcoming U.S.-style housing crash anywhere in Canada, even in the hardest hit energycentered markets.

Homicide investigators work inside an Aldergrove home on 271A Street on Friday where the body of Shelly Janzen was discovered. Police believe Janzen was killed by her brother, Randy, who is also believed to have murdered his wife and daughter in their Popkum home before taking his own life.

Police tipped off by social media From Page 1

Another neighbour said she was very sweet. Shelly was a “very reliable” newspaper carrier for the Langley Times and the Aldergrove Star for the past six months. It was a job she really enjoyed, said Hoock. Several stacks of undelivered papers could be seen piled up at her home as police investigated the murder on Friday. Shelly had never married. She cared for her mother, who lived with her. Her mother, Kathy, passed away last August. Randy, her sister-in-law and her niece were everything to Shelly. They were all very close, said Hoock. “Randy was very kind to her,” said Hoock. Randy grew up in the church too but was no longer an active member. “There is not anger, just sad-

ness around this tragedy,” said Hoock. The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team took over both the crime scene in Aldergrove and in Popkum, east of Chilliwack, on Thursday. Just after 3 p.m. on Thursday, May 7, Langley RCMP received information obtained through social media that indicated a Rosedale man had harmed his family members. As a result of this information, Langley RCMP attended the 271A Street home and located a deceased individual in the home, said IHIT in a press release. Further information received through social media indicated there was a potential second location of concern in the Rosedale/Popkum area. Upper Fraser Valley Regional RCMP attended with the assistance of the Emergency Response Team. They attempted to make con-

tact with a man believed to be inside the home. Approximately four hours after police arrived on scene, gunfire could be heard and the residence caught fire and was quickly engulfed in flames. It’s believed Randy killed himself. “This investigation is extremely complex involving two crime scenes and potentially multiple victims,” IHIT said in a statement. The B.C. Coroner Service will be investigating the triple murder-suicide, looking at the circumstances that led to Randy Janzen’s actions. It is too early to know if a public inquest will be held or a coroner’s report. If there is a benefit to the public and it would prevent similar deaths in the future, a public inquest with a jury will be held, said B.C. Coroners Service’s Barb McLintock.

All net proceeds from the Salvation Army Thrift Store in Aldergrove go directly to benefit the services offered by The Gateway of Hope in Langley.

The colour blue is often associated with depth and stability. And it was a fitting colour for all to see on Friday morning, given the work the Langley Memorial Hospital Auxiliary volunteers have done. It was a sea of blue outside as dozens of LMH Auxiliary volunteers, donned in blue aprons, awaited the grand opening and ribbon cutting ceremony at the new Penny Pincher Thrift Store on Fraser Highway. “I see the bright blue volunteers and the bright blue sky,” said Langley Township Mayor Jack Froese. “You also have a bright blue future.” Froese was one of several dignitaries on hand for the ribbon cutting of the new Penny Pincher location at 20550 Fraser Hwy. And the Langley Memorial Hospital Auxiliary is a picture of stability these days. More than seven years ago — Nov. 5, 2007 to be exact — the LMHA auxiliary board made the decision to purchase the former Coast Capital building on the one-way section of Fraser Highway. “That is an amazing legacy that everyone here should be proud of,” said Jason Cook, the executive director of the Fraser Health Authority. “The patients will be grateful, not just today, but in the years to come, in your decision to buy a building.” “Thank you to the citizens of Langley,” said Diane Thornton, the LMH Auxiliary president. “Without your donations and support, we wouldn’t be here at all.” Thornton also thanked all those involved — whether it was the volunteers, accountants, lawyers and those who did the renovation — for helping get to this day. The thrift shop is completely run by volunteers. One hundred per cent of the proceeds from the thrift store go directly to Langley Memorial Hospital. The auxiliary donated $333,294.59 to the hospital in 2014. To learn more, go to www.langleymemorialhospitalauxiliary.ca or call 604-530-3232, or find them on Facebook.

Lochiel closure meeting tonight MO N I Q U E TA M M I N G A Ti m e s Re po r t e r

ward a notice of motion to consider the possibility of closing Lochiel and moving the U-Connect program to Simonds Elementary. A community consultation process has been underway for the past several weeks, including working with the PACs, in order to provide feedback to the board. The Lochiel site is in rural south Langley. The board is looking to sell some properties to come up with funds to contribute to building a new high school in over-crowded Willoughby. Simonds Elementary is underpopulated and this move could help save the City school from

being looked at for closure. Originally, Simonds was part of a district staff plan to be turned into a middle school. But once the board rejected closing Langley Secondary, those plans were off the table. In the meantime, two public meetings were held at Lynn Fripps Elementary on Monday, in the afternoon and evening, to ask parents for their thoughts on possible major changes to schooling in Willoughby to address overcrowding. The District is looking at reconfiguring elementary schools to K-6, reconfiguring Yorkson Middle School to Grade 7/8 and some school catchment changes.

Parents and the public can have their say tonight (May 13) on the possible closure of the Lochiel U-Connect site and moving the program to Simonds Elementary. The public consultation meeting is at 7 p.m. at Simonds, with trustees in attendance to hear people’s thoughts on the move. A final decision on whether or not to close Lochiel and move the U-Connect program to Simonds will be made at a special Board of Education meeting on June 9. This meeting is open to the public and will be held at the board office at 7 p.m. On April 7, the board put for-

port, will be inducted into the hall of fame at the Ontario Science Centre in Toronto. He will then take his place beside great Canadian aviators, leaders, and innovators such as William Avery “Billy” Bishop. “What an honour this is for George, and one he truly deserves,” said Langley Township Mayor Jack Froese. “Langley Regional Airport is an outstanding asset to our community. Not only is this thriving facility one of the top community airports in Canada, it provides transportation,

hundreds of jobs, and training opportunities for in-demand careers. The airport is a huge economic driver and it was George’s vision, commitment, and hard work that got it there.” “George is the person who made the Langley Regional Airport the national success story that it is today,” said former councillor Grant Ward, a fellow pilot and aviation enthusiast who started the process of nominating Miller for the induction into the hall of fame two years ago.

The Township of Langley told residents in northwest Langley and Willowbrook not to worry if their tap water turned cloudy on Monday. There was “a possibility they may experience turbidity in their tap water” a statement from the engineering department said. “ … please be reassured that it is from in-system and is not considered a health concern” the statement added. The cloudiness was

the result of a required 24-hour flow reversal test on the new Barnston-Maple Ridge pump station. The $46 million station at 200 Street and

The five new pumps in the station will be able to move more than 300 million litres of water a day when they begin operating.

The Alberta election, held last Tuesday, may or may not prove to be a seismic shift in Canadian politics. The governing Progressive Conservatives, in power under seven different premiers since 1971, were dramatically thrown out of office by voters — capturing just 10 seats and coming in third. Taking their place as the government of Alberta is the Alberta NDP, a party which has never held more than 16 seats in the legislature. In the past, most of its electoral strength has been confined to the Edmonton area. The NDP won 54 seats, although there was a tie vote in one Calgary riding. Final results there are not yet official. Political scientists are having a field day with the election. There are many reasons for the fall of the PCs and the rise of the NDP, but the overriding one seems to be that the PCs took power for granted after 44 years. While new PC leader Jim Prentice was capable and experienced, his actions in luring most of the opposition Wildrose Party’s MLAs to his caucus, and bringing in a budget that punished ordinary Albertans, seemed to infuriate voters. The NDP under Rachel Notley seemed the best option for many of them. This election could have implications for the federal election in October. The Conservatives won all but one seat in Alberta in 2011. If there is a significant shift away from them (although they are not directly connected to the Alberta PCs), it could hurt the party’s chances of being re-elected as government. The federal Liberals could also be hurt by the shift to the NDP provincially, while the federal NDP in Alberta, who now hold just one seat there, are likely to benefit. In B.C., there are also implications. Notley opposes the Northern Gateway pipeline, which would now seem to have little chance of being built. She backs the twinning of the Kinder Morgan pipeline, and she also wants more Alberta oil processed in Canada — something many people of all political stripes agree with. It is quite likely that she and B.C. Premier Christy Clark can work well together on many issues, including pipelines and adding value to resources extracted in Canada.

Question

of the week

Do you support the closure of the soup kitchen at St. Joseph’s Church in Langley City?

Answer online at www.langleytimes.com

Voters have final say they

Many parents were probably hopeful that last week’s B.C. Court of Appeal decision was the last they’d hear about the provincial government’s seemingly never-ending battle with the BC Teachers’ Federation (BCTF) over the removal of class size and special-needs support formulas from classrooms. Wishful thinking. In a judgment Thursday, four of five appeal court judges found that the province did not infringe on the constitutional rights of teachers to bargain working conditions. It was a stinging rebuke to the teachers’ union, finding that the government has the authority to set class sizes and special needs support in public schools, and that it didn’t bargain in bad faith. Regardless, the BCTF said it will try to take the case to the Supreme Court of Canada, and the historical shoving match between Victoria and the BCTF will see yet another chapter. No one would argue that class sizes should be left to expand without limits, and while support for special-needs children is vital to give those kids the tools they need to become healthy adults, both issues should not be decided by unions, contract negotiators, and subsequently, lawyers and courts. These issues are at the core of education policy and the type of learning environments provided for our children — in context of what is reasonable, affordable and sustainable over the long-term. To take this out of the hands of the public’s elected representatives — whatever their political stripes — and expect the courts to be the champions of kids through an interpretation of law, isn’t good for anyone. The public has the ability to express and test its education values as a priority at the ballot box. That’s how democracy should work. — Penticton Western News

Good intentions get left behind Editor: I have reached the conclusion that the vast majority of Conservative politicians cannot be religious. While some may start out with good intentions, they soon become part of the pack mentality. They quickly learn to cheat, lie, defame others, and act in greedy and other dishonourable manners. They do anything to hold onto power and thus advance their individual fortunes. Nowhere is this clearer than with the Republican party in the U.S. and the Conservative party in Canada. The actions of the Republican party speak for themselves, and the Conservatives follow suit here in Canada. The Conservatives have reduced revenue by: reducing the GST (the only fair tax â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and the reduction primarily benefited those with more disposable income); giving huge tax breaks to corporations (again benefiting the rich); income splitting to benefit the well-to-do; and myriad other tax breaks which can only be used by the well-off. To offset this lost revenue, the Stephen Harper Conservatives have: cut support to the Canadian Forces; ignored our veterans; reduced CPP benefits for pensioners; ignored the working poor; done very little for single parents; basically kicked the infrastructure can down the road; ignored the problems of indigenous peoples; and done nothing for the homeless or children who go to bed hungry. Of course, none of their children or grandchildren will be hungry. What a way to balance a budget. Rob the poor to give to the rich. The sad thing is that the Conservatives are aware that only a small percentage of the poor or homeless vote, so they only have to satisfy the wellto-do who vote in droves because of tax breaks. And students and younger people know whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wrong but still donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t vote. I guess the old saying that I am not my brotherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s keeper now applies in this country. It now apparently lacks our forefathersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Christian values. If I was one of the politicians (or voters) who support these policies and I considered myself to be religious (believing in the afterlife and hell), I would be afraid â&#x20AC;&#x201C; very afraid.

Alberta election â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;reality checkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; for provinceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s longtime rulers Editor:Â The Alberta election was a reality check for Jim Prentice. In 2010, Prentice left Stephen Harperâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s federal government to become a vice-president at a major Canadian bank. When scandal forced Premier Alison Redford to resign, Prentice saw it as a golden opportunity to renew his political career. Prentice strutted onto Albertaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s political stage with the self-righteous swagger of a television evangelist. Low world oil prices put a tremendous squeeze on provincial revenues. After becoming premier, PrenJ IM tice co-opted the leader and several members of the P REN TICE Wildrose party, the official opposition. Prentice then introduced a ham-fisted budget and called a premature election, cynically hoping to catch the other parties off balance.

After more than four decades of Progressive Conservative rule, Prentice had the gall to blame the provinceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fiscal mess on the people of Alberta. He dismissively told Albertans to look in the mirror to discover the reason the province was ill-prepared for the financial shock. Barrels of money have been allowed to slip past the Alberta Heritage Savings Trust Fund and go directly into the deep pockets of the governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s oil industry friends, who just happen to be generous contributors to all conservative-leaning political parties. Many Albertans are sick of fear-mongering, manipulative politicians who behave as if they have a divine right to rule. LLOYD ATKINS, VERNON

Coast Guard has backup system Editor: Re: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Coast guard cuts should worry mariners,â&#x20AC;? (letters, The Times, May 8). I noticed that The Times recently published a letter which contained some inaccuracies about the an outage at MCTS Prince Rupert. The safety of mariners is the top priority of the Canadian Coast Guard (CCG), and the government is investing in marine communications infrastructure to deliver worldclass services in Canadian waters. On April 21, between 2:34 a.m. and 3:10 a.m., MCTS Prince Rupert was unable to transmit or receive radio calls. Outages occur from time to time, and are not unique to the new system being installed at MCTS centres across the country. To address these sporadic occurrences, CCG has the established protocols and procedures in place to maintain com-

munications with mariners. During this short outage at MCTS Prince Rupert, the centre phoned the Joint Rescue Coordination Centre in Victoria to instruct all Coast Guard ships and bases in the area to monitor Emergency Channel 16 for a potential distress call. As per CCGâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s standard operating procedure, the marine community was notified of the outage via a Notice to Shipping. Within half an hour, a technician was onsite, and at 3:10 a.m., had resolved the issue. Testing of the system continued, and it was confirmed to be fully operational by 3:30 a.m. JODY THOMAS, COMMISSIONER, CANADIAN COAST GUARD

Transportation policy needs revision Editor: Lenora Nicholson makes some very valid points in her letter (The Times, April 29) regarding transportation costs and taxpayer burden. An in-depth read and analysis of the Fraser Valley Growth Strategy of June 1, 2000 is an eye-opener.Â This strategy, originating from meetings held in 1997, is a document that has as much relevance today as the news that movies are now in colour. This report is one that is in effect and apparently was utilized to plan the valleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s transportation needs. The conclusions therein have no relevance to todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s reality. The transportation forecast for the time period 2000 to 2020 are for a doubling of population and number of vehicles on the

roads â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a forecast that has absolutely nothing in line with the current traffic flows and population. Current expectations for the population of the valley are around a million people in the immediate future. The use ofÂ this document for planning our future is ludicrous. BC on the Move has come out with a new 10-year plan that apparently reflects the opinion of the residents of the Fraser Valley. In some instances, it contradicts the 2000 growth strategy. It appears that the original strategy of 2000 did not work and needs revision or updating. This is another government boondoggle. TERRY BRENAN, ALDERGROVE

The B.C. government intends to effectively shut down as many as 46 Lower Mainland pharmacies by excluding them from the PharmaCare program in the wake of a review that flagged various abuses. Letters have gone out to the pharmacies giving them three weeks to argue why they shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be denied the ability to bill the publicly funded drug plan effective next month. There have been past allegations of kickbacks paid by methadone-dispensing pharmacies to retain addicted patients, among other concerns about their practices. Health ministry officials arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t releasing specifics or the locations of the pharmacies involved. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Many of these pharmacies are dispensing methadone,â&#x20AC;? Health Minister Terry Lake confirmed.

A regulatory change that took effect in December now allows the ministry to refuse to do business with pharmacies with a history of problematic business and billing practices, and forces them to disclose their ownership, management and track record. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Until now, it could be hard for the ministry to cancel the enrolment of a pharmacy taking advantage of patients or breaking PharmaCareâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s billing rules,â&#x20AC;? Lake said. Recent audits of pharmacies have turned up hundreds of thousands of dollars in billing irregularities. The ministry says some pharmacies improperly filed drug information for patients into the provinceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s prescription-tracking network, potentially risking their health, while others gave false information on their enrolment applications. A health ministry spokesperson would not release specifics

The 20 top methadone-dispensing pharmacies in B.C. include four each in Surrey and Vancouverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Downtown Eastside, five elsewhere in Vancouver, three in Abbotsford, two in Victoria and one each in Nanaimo and Kamloops. Together they were paid more than $12 million from the PharmaCare program to supply methadone in 2013, according to a provincial review of the methadone maintenance program completed in January. The review found methadone costs covered by PharmaCare have climbed by an average of 7.6 per cent a year to nearly $44 million, making it the programâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s second-highest drug cost.

Dispensing fees worth nearly $6,500 per year to a pharmacy

RBC Dominion Securities Inc.

From Page 10

Bla ck P ress f ile p hoto

A patient holds a bottle of methadone dispensed by a pharmacy in Surrey.

5,200 in Vancouver, 3,400 in Surrey, 1,200 in Burnaby, 1,000 each in Abbotsford and Greater Victoria, and another 2,000 split between Coquitlam, New Westminster and Nanaimo. The review notes the ministry has for more than a decade dealt with methadone dispensing problems, including the offering of inducements to patients and improper billing. “There appear to be significant concerns relating to the safety, acceptability, equity and efficiency of the [program],” the review found. It also pointed to B.C.’s “generous” dispensing fees, including a witnessing fee to make sure patients drink methadone at the pharmacy, that together make it a lucrative business. Dispensing methadone to a single patient is worth nearly $6,500 a year in fees to a pharmacy net of the drug costs, the review said, and dispensing other drugs to the patient can triple that. Lake defended B.C.’s policy on fees. “The witnessing fee is important to ensure that the person who is prescribed the methadone actually takes the methadone, because there is a market value on the street and we want to ensure that the proper person is getting the medication,” he said. “There’s just a very small number of pharmacists and pharmacies that have been shown be not following the rules.” Other pharmacies exist near each targeted one, Lake said, and a smooth transition of patients and their prescriptions is expected.

it simple medication control wide range of medical equipment. In the past year, numerous drug stores have sprung up in Langley but Valley Evergreen Pharmacy is different from the rest. With extraordinary customer service this pharmacy stands head and shoulders above all the new kids on the block. Valley Evergreen Pharmacy also differs from the rest because they have opted out of the provincial methadone dispensing program, and they do not have the “big box” approach to their relationship with their customers.

Vivace, a pop-opera ensemble featuring Langley’s Tiffany Desrosiers, left, will perform at Maple Ridge Alliance Church on May 31. Other members of Vivace include Marc Devigne, Michael Ciufo and Melody Courage. Desrosiers is also in the process of promoting her six-song EP Fearless.

Presenting popera, with a twist VIVACE WILL PERFORM ON SUNDAY, MAY 31 AT MAPLE RIDGE ALLIANCE CHURCH BRENDA ANDERSON Times Reporter

Four highly trained voices raised together, combining two musical genres into one — that’s Vivace, a Lower Mainland-based vocal ensemble, which blends pop and opera into a genre that blurs musical boundaries and creates something else entirely. Dubbed “popera,” the style is growing in popularity, but in terms of music history, it is still in its infancy, said Langley’s Tiffany Desrosiers, a member of Vivace. The ensemble, whose name is Italian for “lively” or “vivid,” puts a classical spin on pop music and takes more traditional opera songs and adds a bit of pop, explained the Langley singer. Popera is becoming more and more familiar to North American audiences, with the emergence of

such acts as Il Divo, the Canadian Tenors and Josh Groban. But with the inclusion of two female voices, Vivace offers a different spin, said Desrosiers, who is joined by Melody Courage and tenors Marc Devigne and Michael Ciufo. While both women are sopranos, “Melody takes the highest notes. It’s exciting for the audience,” said Desrosiers. Like Ciufo, Courage brings a background in opera, while Desrosiers and Devigne add the ensemble’s pop element. Among the highlights of a Vivace concert, said Desrosiers, is a “four-voice spin” on Christina Perri’s A Thousand Years and the Neopolitan classic O Sole Mio turned into a pop-versus-opera competition. Nessun Dorma (None Shall Sleep)

— an aria from Puccini’s opera, Turandot — is a perennial crowd favourite. They also perform a version of Unchained Melody that sounds beautiful with four voices, said Desrosiers. In addition to wellknown pieces, the ensemble also performs original material. The four vocalists have performed together since 2010, and as Vivace for the past three years. Their upcoming Maple Ridge concert marks a return to the Valley for the group, which has been on tour across the U.S., performing in Florida, New York, Tennessee and New Mexico. At each show, Desrosiers said, the ensemble was pleased by the turnout, adding that, thanks in large part to social media, some audience members travelled for several hours to catch their show.

As she continues to tour and sing with Vivace, Desrosiers is busy building her solo career as well. The winner of the first Langley Has Talent competition in 2011, she recently completed a cross-Canada radio tour, visiting 40 stations to promote her sixsong EP Fearless, which was released three weeks ago. A video for the title track was released last year. Desrosiers describes the album as a cross between Celine Dion, Sia and Sam Smith. “It’s pop songs, more on the ballad end with electronic and classical overtones in the production.” Although she plans to have some physical copies of the EP made up for sale, the album is available online on all the usual sites, she said.

The May 31 Vivace concert in Maple Ridge begins at 7 p.m. Doors open at 6 p.m. Tickets are $20, available at the door or by calling 604-813-5256. Maple Ridge Alliance Church is located at 20399 Dewdney Trunk Rd. Langley audiences can check out Desrosiers’ solo show live next month, during the Relay for Life on June 12 at McLeod Athletic Park. Her performance is scheduled for 5:30 p.m. On Saturday, May 30, Vivace will perform with the Chilliwack Symphony Orchestra. On June 3, Desrosiers is set to perform songs from her Fearless EP during a Camp Choice fundraiser at the Newton Boston Pizza location, 7488 King George Hwy. The event runs from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m.

Elks Lodge caps off Hearing and Speech Month with walkrun in Campbell Valley Park May is Hearing and Speech Month and Langley Elks Lodge #259 supports early hearing detection and intervention programs for children. Many of us take our hearing and speech for granted, however, one in six people has a speech, language or hearing disorder. Children are at risk of developing social, emotional, behavioral or learning problems if these problems are not detected early. Communication is a vital link between human beings. Through our ears we gain much of our information about others and the world around us. We need to ensure that all children have access to newborn hearing screening and timely intervention services to enable them to live their lives to the fullest potential. Newborn hearing screening is an essential first step in the strategy for identifying children with permanent childhood hearing loss and should be a standard of care in Canada. Early intervention is critical for children identi-

fied with communication problems. Anyone who suspects a child has a hearing loss or speech problem is encouraged to contact a physician, audiologist or speech-language pathologist. On May 24, Langley Elks will host their annual walkathon in Campbell Valley Park. The event is described as “a fun, non-competitive 1.5 km run or 3 km walk/run.” Refreshments will be provided before and after the event. There will be a prize draw, activities and entertainment for the kids. Registration starts at 9 a.m. and the walk/run at 10 a.m. You can support this event by attending, fundraising through an individual or team webpage, collecting pledges or making an online donation. Are you interested in belonging to a caring, well-established and charitable organization in the Langley Community? Call Lynn for further information about Langley Elks Lodge and meeting times at 604-427-1939.

An exhibit of work by Bruce Giesbrecht, a local artist who passed away in February, will be on display at the Fort Gallery from May 13 to 31.

Memorial exhibit celebrates artist’s life and work

Walk-ins Welcome

OVER 10 YEARS OF EXPERIENCED STAFF

N& N

From May 13 to 31 the Fort Gallery will feature a retrospective of selected paintings by Bruce Giesbrecht, a local artist who passed away in February. The strong, abstract works are charged with the vibrant energy of bold colour, which Bruce loved so much. Although he used very basic geometric forms in his compositions, one can feel the complex thinking and the disciplined seeing of an artist who loved the process of painting. Each new painting was, for him, a fresh challenge to explore a set up of colour and shape relationships and each finished piece was a joy – both to him and to others. This exhibition is sponsored, as a memorial, by Giesbrecht’s family and friends, to honour his life and his love of painting. He was a valued member of the Fort Gallery and The Open Studio Program, as well as an enthusiastic supporter of the artists in our community. He will be greatly missed. He was a friend and fellow artist to many at the Fort Gallery, and so the public to attend a special reception for him in lieu of a traditional opening, from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday, May 16. At 3 p.m. there will be a time to share personal memories of Bruce as the gathering celebrates his life and his work.

Five players from Langley were taken in the Western Hockey League bantam draft on May 7. Brendan Budy (above, left to right), Luke Zazula, Brodi Stuart and Bobby Russell all played this past season for the Delta Hockey Academy. Sean Gulka (below) spent the season with the Burnaby Winter Club.

High five: Langley quintet drafted THREE PLAYERS TAKEN IN FOURTH ROUND OF WHL BANTAM DRAFT, WHILE ONE GOES IN FIFTH AND ANOTHER IN NINTH G ARY AH U J A Tim e s Spo r t s

It is not where you are picked, it is what you do with the opportunity. That was the message from coach Yaroslav Svejkovsky to a handful of his players selected in Thursday’s (May 7) WHL bantam draft. “I always tell the guys, it is not how high you get drafted,” Svejkovsky said. “The most important thing is you get drafted in the place where they value who you are. “That is far more important than the number you were drafted.” Four local players from Langley — who all played this past season with the Delta Hockey Academy bantam prep team under Svejkovsky — heard their names called in the annual draft for 14 and 15-year-olds. Brendan Budy was the first Langley player selected, taken in the fourth round, 69th overall, by the Red Deer Rebels. And later that same round, the Kamloops Blazers nabbed Luke Zazula 82nd overall and Brodi Stuart 84th overall. Bobby Russell went in round six (123rd overall) to the Kootenay Ice. And a fifth Langley player, Sean Gulka, went to the Victoria Royals in round nine (182nd overall). Gulka plays for the Burnaby Winter Club. Aldergrove had one player drafted, Jonathan Rees. Rees, who plays for the Okanagan Hockey Academy, went in round nine (193rd overall) to the Portland Winterhawks. Budy, Stuart and Russell were all at school following the draft online while Zazula was on vacation in Hawaii — but still tracking the draft — and Gulka was on a plane ride home from Hawaii. All five were excited to be drafted, as well as relieved to have that phase of their hockey development done and over with. “It feels really good now that it is over,” admitted Budy.

“The last couple of weeks were getting a bit stressful. You are just curious to see where you are going.” While the other four all have said the Western Hockey League is the goal, Budy admits to being undecided between major junior and playing junior A and then going the NCAA route. His father played NCAA hockey with Colorado College. “Both are great leagues. I will probably think about it for quite a while,” Budy said. “My parents support me either way; it will be my decision.” Budy is a five-foot-eight 155-pound forward. He plans on returning to the hockey academy for next season. “He has got a real special shot, a very dynamic player,” Svejkovsky said, adding that Budy’s intelligence in the classroom extends to the ice. Zazula, a five-foot-eight, 150 pound defenceman and Stuart, a five-foot-nine, 150-pound forward, were both thrilled to be chosen by the same organization since they are best friends. “We are both pretty excited to be going to the same organization,” Stuart said. He figured he was bound to get some good-natured ribbing from Zazula since Kamloops selected him two picks ahead of grabbing Stuart. “It feels unreal, especially to go to Kamloops,” Zazula said. “It is an honour.” “They have just had so many good players come out of their organization so it will be a treat to go there.” Svejkovsky said that Zazula is very intense. “We always joke that Luke is the guy you would want with you if you had to go in a back alley or bad part of town,” the coach said. “I don’t think anything will shake him up in life, he is pretty intense.” As for Stuart, Svejkovsky said he has gotten better and better over the past couple

of seasons through hard work. “Brodi has gotten better every single year and now he has caught up to the players who were at one point ahead of him,” Svejkovsky said. “You wonder what’s next for him because he just keeps getting better. “Everything he has gotten, he has had to earn.” Russell is a strong two-way defenceman who can skate very well. “I saw my name pop up, and it was tons of excitement,” he said. “It took a little while to sink in, but it was mostly excitement.” Russell is five-foot-10 and 155 pounds. “He looks like a hockey player,” Svejkovsky said. “He has a really good skill set, from his skating, to his shot, to how he thinks the game. “I think he still has a couple of years of physical maturity which will help him become a better player.” All four players were with the Delta Hockey Academy for the first time this past year and Svejkovsky said they came to the program with a good skill set and foundation from their minor hockey days. “Those guys have been coached well since they were younger kids, that’s why they are enjoying so much success this time; they had good habits,” Svejkovsky said. “They had good habits and good compete level. When we got them, they were already among our better players so that makes it easier for us.” “Those kids, they love the game.” Gulka started playing with the Langley Minor Hockey Association, but has been on the move the past couple of years. He played with the Burnaby Winter Club as a peewee and has since played with the Richmond Minor Hockey Association and the North Shore Winter Club before rejoining Burnaby. And Gulka, a five-foot-10, 145-pound

Brendan Gulka was a ninth round pick in last week’s WHL bantam draft. centre, was having himself a good season when he broke his collarbone. He is almost recovered, but just waiting for the go-ahead from the doctor to resume training. “Getting drafted is something I have looked forward to so I was pretty happy about it,” he said. He described his game as being a good two-way player who likes to move the puck. One area he can improve on is his selfishness, or rather, he needs to be more selfish, said his coach this past season, John Batchelor. “He has to learn to be a bit more selfish and shoot the puck,” Batchelor said. The coach also said Gulka is a good twoway player with great vision and his season-ending injury was a big blow to the team. Rees is a five-foot-11, 160-pound forward from Aldergrove. He played this past season with the Okanagan Hockey Academy.

claimed top spot with a 7-3 win. The Storm also beat the Xtreme 10-8 in preliminary round play. In Langley’s first game, they walloped the Langley Xtreme 04 18-0 with Nicole Nordal earning MVP honours with some stellar defensive play as well as textbook slap bunts. Renee Hudson was the MVP in the 10-8 loss thanks to both her pitching and home-run hitting abilities. And the final preliminary game saw Rylee Baly earn MVP after belting a home run and flashing the leather at short-stop in a 15-0 win over the Fleetwood Force.

Nathaniel Kozevnikov led the team with a goal and two helpers while James Rahe and Moffatt had a goal and an assist apiece. Dylan Lacroix, Garrett Brown and Dayton McIntosh had the other goals. In Victoria two nights later, the Shamrocks scored the game’s first eight goals and never looked back, winning 15-7. Moffatt led Langley with three goals while Lacroix scored twice. Jesse Worley and Connor Abrams had a goal apiece. The Thunder have three games in the next five days, including a pair at home.
