NO SPRAYS WILL BE USED IN CAMPAIGN AGAINST APHIDS, TOWNSHIP SAYS DAN FERGUSON Times Reporter
When some ominous-looking notices of pending pesticide use went up in a Brookswood neighbourhood, there was a flurry of phone calls, emails and social media postings by people who thought the Township was planning to spray a residential area with potentially hazardous chemicals. The announcements, stapled on some ash trees near 43 Avenue between 209 to 211 Streets, did not mention spraying, but they also didn’t make any reference to the Township plan to use tree injections instead of spraying to fight an aphid infestation. Tree injection is a process where small holes are drilled into a tree so a pesticide or fertilizer can be inserted under pressure. The written notices were posted Tuesday, the day before the planned application of Orthene. The “Notice of Pesticide Use” included a warn-
ing against entering the treated areas “during application” of the pesticide. Area resident Michelle Connerty said it was an alarming thing to see on her street, especially when she looked up Orthene online and found it “can cause breathing issues and irritate eyes and throats of those who inhale it.” She said her initial posting on a Brookswood Facebook page drew over 100 comments almost instantly. The next morning, she phoned the Township and was told there would be no spraying, a point that she feels should have been mentioned on the notices. “The uncertainty about how it was going to be applied was huge for us,” Connerty said. By Wednesday afternoon, Township Recreation, Culture, and Parks director David Leavers issued a statement saying the notices referred to an injection program, not spraying. Continued Page 5

The B.C. Court of Appeal has dismissed a Langley man’s appeal of his jail sentence for drug trafficking and firearm convictions. Brendan Paterson, 30, was sentenced to four and a half years in jail for nine charges of trafficking and firearm convictions in B.C. Supreme Court in May 2013. The Langley man appealed his conviction and lost. In a May 13 B.C. Court of Appeal ruling, Justice Bennett found that the trial judge in his case was correct to agree that the police entry into his home was justified and didn’t violate Paterson’s Charter rights. It was in 2007, when police were investigating a dropped 911 call. Police came out to Paterson’s 88 Avenue Walnut Grove apartment. They smelled marijuana and questioned him about it. Paterson said he had three roaches inside. The police entered to seize the roaches, where they then saw a handgun and pills. They obtained a search warrant and, upon executing it, found drugs and various firearms, including semi-automatics, a revolver, cocaine, meth, bullet proof vest and $30,000 cash. Police learned that Paterson’s girlfriend had called 911 crying and saying she had been injured while she was in his apartment. She was taken away by ambulance before police arrived.

Importance of wild salmon highlighted MO N I Q U E TA M M I N G A Ti me s Re po r t e r
The Wild Salmon Caravan stopped in Fort Langley Wednesday, May 13 as it follows the migratory route of salmon from the headwaters down to the ocean. Made up of First Nations, and wild salmon advocates, the caravan is making its way across B.C. this week, in both a spiritual and political effort, said Eddie Gardner, a Skwah elder who lives in Chilliwack, and one of the organizers of the caravan. Kwantlen First Nation member Brandon Gabriel is taking part in the caravan as well. The idea of the caravan is to “open people’s minds and hearts to the magnificent spirit of wild salmon,” Gardner said, and to “link coalitions and campaigns into a powerful collective force. “This is a grassroots movement of First Nations and wild salmon protectors and everyone is invited to join in. “The salmon are so integral, on a cultural, physical and spiritual level. It’s about our well being, and the economy,” said Gardner. The convoy arrived at Skwah First Nation in Chilliwack at 10:30 a.m. on Wednesday, May 13 for a ceremony and lunch. The caravan travelled to Fort Langley, arriving in the afternoon at Kwantlen First Nation Longhouse Cultural Centre for a community dinner, entertainment, sharing, more celebrations and an overnight stay at the Kwantlen Sports Park on McMillan Island. On Thursday, May 14, the caravan left
Fort Langley at 9:30 a.m. and arrived at the Vancouver Art Gallery at 10:30 a.m. to begin events that will include inspirational speakers giving voice to the many serious issues impacting wild salmon. The salmon is a keystone species, he points out, and yet it is under stress from all directions. “There is no mistake in calling it the iconic species of B.C. Yet the governments are not doing what they should be to support and protect wild salmon on a regulatory level,” Gardner said. “This caravan is also sending a message to federal parties and candidates this spring asking them to explain what they are willing to do to protect the wild salmon and to provide for its resurgence.” They set up a Wild Salmon Caravan fundraising drive at gofundme.com and raised $5,000 for the caravan, and have reached about half their target of $10,000 to date. He listed some of what he called the “principal threats” to wild salmon from industrial forces: Mount Polley mine disaster, Kinder Morgan pipeline, Enbridge proposal, and the growth of open-pen fish farms in the ocean. It’s clear wild salmon are at the centre of a “storm brewing” over the province. “If the salmon go extinct it will have serious and wide-reaching implications. “We still have wild salmon to save,” Gardner said. “They show us what it means to be resilient, generous and giving.” — With files from Chilliwack Progress reporter Jennifer Feinberg

Sidewalk dining restrictions brought in D AN F ERGUSO N Ti me s Re po r t e r
A patio policy to control sidewalk dining is now in effect in Langley Township, following a vote by Township council on Monday (May 11). Outdoor food and drink service will only be permitted on public sidewalks that are at least three metres wide, and the operator must allow at least 1.5 metres of clear space for pedestrians. Even more clear space may be required “in areas of higher pedestrian usage, where concerns with mobility of wheelchairs, strollers or bicycles are raised” the policy states. Alcoholic beverages “will not be permitted on sidewalk patios utilizing the public right of way.”
Businesses will have to pay a nonrefundable $25 fee to apply for a one-year permit and another $75 if they are approved. People who operate without a permit could, potentially, face a fine of up to $500 a day. The regulations are based on a review of patio policies in other communities by staff. The new rules were unanimously approved by council Monday (Councillors Kim Richter and Blair Whitmarsh were absent). During the brief discussion that preceded the vote, Councillor Charlie Fox expressed some doubt about the clause that calls for more clear space when pedestrian use is high. It seemed vague to Fox, who warned it
might mean Township council will have to step in when staff and businesses can’t agree. “I’d like it [the requirement for tighter limits] a little more definitive,” Fox said. “We [council] do enough adjudication.” The sidewalk patio issue came up last year when Wendel’s book store and cafe in Fort Langley tried and failed to get an $100 highway use permit to use the sidewalk at the corner of Glover Road and Mavis Avenue as a patio area. At the time, there was no patio policy. A July 23, 2014 letter from Township transportation engineering manager Paul Cordeiro said a Wendel’s proposal to use the brick paver portion of the sidewalk for a patio would reduce the clear area for pedestrians to 1.5 metres “which is at times
inadequate” given the amount of pedestrian traffic on weekends, holidays and special events. “With further development in Fort Langley with projects such as McBride Station, Coulter Berry, and the Reid Block it is anticipated that sidewalk usage will further increase,” Cordeiro wrote. “There is also some concern that Wendel’s also serves alcohol and that the sidewalk area is currently being used by Wendel’s staff while serving customers” the letter added. At press time, Wendel’s had not responded to a Times request for comment. Langley City doesn’t have a specific sidewalk patio policy, because virtually every dining patio in the city is operating on private property.

Demonstration of ash tree injection. The Township will use this technique to help control aphids in 700 trees, located in Brookswood, Walnut Grove, Murrayville, Derby Hills and Aldergrove. Notices of pest control initially sent to residents did not indicate that spraying would not occur. Township of Langley submitted photo
Pesticide injection is safer than spraying, says Township From Page 1
“Orthene will never be sprayed into the tree canopies [in Langley],” Leavers said. The Township plans to treat 700 at-risk trees with injections in May and June. Leavers said injecting is more effective because the pesticide is directly applied into the vascular tissue of the tree, which means that the pesticide is transported “more uniformly.”
“It is safer because the pesticide is contained within the tree and minimizes exposure to people, pets and wildlife, unlike spray applications where the product drips off the tree,” Leavers said. The 700 trees are located in Murrayville, Brookswood, Walnut Grove, Northwest Langley (Derby Hills), and Aldergrove. “Spraying has not occurred in any communities as part of this program,” Leavers said.
“This is the Township’s standard annual practice and is not comparable to the provincial gypsy moth spraying that has occurred in Surrey and Delta recently.” Connerty intends to go to the next meeting of council to urge the Township to provide more advance notice about upcoming pesticide applications, and to suggest that the notices specify whether spraying or injection will be used.

The number of people in Langley who have already voted in the plebiscite on the proposal to boost the sales tax by 0.5 per cent to pay for transit expansion is very heartening. As of Wednesday, almost 42 per cent of Langley Township voters had voted in the referendum — with two more weeks to go until ballots must be returned. This is already more than 10 per cent above the number who voted in the 2014 municipal election. Just under 30 per cent voted at that time. In Langley City, where voter turnout is almost always abysmal, almost 39 per cent of voters have already returned their ballots. This is almost double the 20 per cent who voted last November. Why is there such interest in voting on this plebiscite? For one thing, it’s much easier to take part. All voters have to do is fill out the ballot and mail it back to Elections BC. If they want to drop the completed ballots by the Elections BC storefront at Willowbrook Shopping Centre, they can do that instead. Second, there is only one decision to make. This is very different from the municipal ballot, where voters are asked to choose one candidate for mayor, eight (six in the City) candidates for council and five (two in the City) for the board of education. It is much easier to make a decision. Third, there is strong public interest in this question. TransLink service affects many people — it offers bus and SkyTrain service to residents, and helps pay for road maintenance. It also operates the (tolled) Golden Ears and (free) Pattullo bridges. Paying more sales tax to help fund it is controversial. While many people in Vancouver, where transit service is good, are all for paying a bit more to add services (including a new subway line under Broadway, which accounts for almost one-third of the amount to be raised by the tax increase), most people in Langley will gain little in the way of new services. An LRT line is to be built here, but won’t be in service for 12 or more years. Aldergrove business people are very concerned that a higher sales tax, which will not apply in neighbouring Abbotsford, will hurt their businesses substantially. This is a genuine concern — cross-border shopping proves people will drive significant distances if they think they are saving some money. Those who have not received a ballot can call Elections BC until midnight today (Friday, May 15) and ask for one. The phone number is 1-800-661-8683. The ballots must be in the hands of Elections BC by 8 p.m. on Friday, May 29. If you are concerned about the mail-in ballot being returned on time, take the completed ballot to the office at Willowbrook. It is open during mall hours, but closed on Sundays. The participation rate indicates that many people are very interested in casting ballots on this question. If you haven’t voted yet, do so soon.

Concerns vanish they
Who would have predicted that cross-border shopping — a preoccupation of retailers and consumers in 2013, when the loonie was closer to par — would have dropped off the radar by 2015? But that is what has happened. It’s not just the dollar that is keeping Canadians closer to home, but the proliferation of online buying opportunities. While shopping online is efficient and there is great variety, it isn’t a perfect system. Canadians who make shopping close to home a part of their lifestyle keep taxes and jobs in their neighbourhood — a good thing for those eking a living in the service and retail industries, and for government budgets. But the high U.S. dollar also makes imported food and other necessities more expensive while cheaper gas doesn’t seem to offset the high costs. So while we might not be shopping down south, we are still feeling the hit to our pocketbooks. — Tri-City News

Not BCTF’s role Editor: In the case of the B.C. Teachers Federation objecting to the elected provincial government invoking legislation, I would submit that if education is going to be a function of the provincial government, then the elected government should have the right to “call the shots.” If the citizens decide they want the BCTF to “call the shots” regarding education, then the leadership of the BCTF should be elected by the people of the province, not just by teachers. Given the huge proportion of the provincial budget devoted to education, it could be a good idea to separate it from the general provincial government, and at the same time as a provincial election have an “educational government” election. This might even work with the health care bureaucracy. That way, it would put these important governmental functions closer to the voter — that is, to the wishes of the majority of the people. PAUL M. BOWMAN, ALDERGROVE
Speed traps needed Editor: On Saturday morning before 8:30 a.m., I came upon a recently killed rabbit, very likely hit by a vehicle travelling at excessive speed on a quiet weekend morning. This occurred on 86 Avenue, a residential street, in front of Sunflower Montessori preschool, next to Alex Hope Elementary. The point of this letter is to alert motorists to slow down and also to inform the Langley RCMP about the need to implement speed watch events. This tragic accident that took the life of a rabbit could just as easily have killed or injured one of the preschoolers or young kids playing there in the summer time. The fatal accident location is between two speed tables, right in front of the Sunflower Montessori trailer. How fast would a vehicle have to travel between two closely-placed speed tables, in order to kill a rabbit to this degree? Alex Hope Park is a habitat for small wildlife, as with most parks. There will be many opportunities for the police to ticket drivers exhibiting callous driving behavior, as often witnessed by myself and my husband — so much so that we’re seriously considering getting a dashcam for each of our cars to record these events as evidence. We have seen events such as: passing on the righthand lane at a red traffic light when it goes green at 80 Avenue, both east- and westbound, at 208 Street (in front of Willoughy Elementary); routine neglect of the speed zone at Willoughy Elementary and excessive speeds of 80 to 90 km/h on 88 and 80 Avenues. I strongly urge Langley RCMP to implement public campaigns to specifically address routine speeding that’s become the norm in Langley. Issuing some tickets to deserving motorists would drive the point home quickly. PATRICIA TALLMAN, WILLOUGHBY

Concerns about spray remain Editor: Two hundred years ago, the gypsy moth was introduced to the United States. So why it is that the ministry of forests is so afraid of an epidemic here, and why is it that there is a fear that the U.S. will reject certain plants for fear of “cross boundary” contamination? The ministry explained that the need to spray was in order to protect blueberry fields, trees and ornamental shrubs. It said it would not be harmful to humans, pets and wildlife, although people with respiratory problems or sensitive skin would be affected. The spray, Foray 48B, was approved by a regulatory body who said standards were met. The ministry claimed it had done its due diligence in warning the public. So why are so many people in this area saying they received no notification of spraying or an explanation of its safety? The choice to use Foray 48B was unconscionable. The ministry obviously have given no thought to protecting the whole ecosystem.

Does that mean that work- report them to your doctor, who has to report them to Fraers could get a day off with pay? Many people have been ser Health Authority. The ministry said “life is tough for a bug.” What about affected. The ministry also said the residue could be easily washed the rest of us? SUSAN SIMMONS, off. It took three hours to clean my car. CLOVERDALE As I write this, three more days of spraying are planned from May 10 to 12. I don’t look forward to three days of Editor’s note — The ministry says the spraying concluded on Gravol, antacids and pain killers. May 12.
Gypsy moth spraying has made her ill Editor: I live in Langley — just one of the communities being sprayed for gypsy moth prevention. I understand the need for it, of course. No one wants to see everything green become eradicated by this aggressive pest. That said, I am pretty appalled at the lack of correct and consistent information being provided to whole communities. Many don’t watch TV or receive news or mailings, and aren’t informed. This spraying has made me ill. This weekend saw round two of spraying start Sunday morning at 5 a.m. My window was open overnight, and my throat was sore and congested. I felt terrible all day. I was dizzy, and feeling very off, and coughing. I had other co-workers and acquaintances advise me they felt this way too. Now (Tuesday morning), we’re on
our third morning in a row of low-level spraying. I was also initially upset at the 5 a.m. roar (yes, it’s very loud as it passes over our house) and they were still passing over at 7:30 a.m. when I left for work. However, I am more upset that officials are advising that its OK, healthwise. I am not alone with these symptoms. Not by far. They can say whatever they want to pacify the public. The immediate reaction to the spraying isn’t false. Anyone insinuating that or not believing there have been health issues from this has not had the spraying all over their homes and properties or multiple days. #gypsymoth. Grrrr. KIM HALE, LANGLEY

Decorative banners, way finding sculpture selected for City Park B REN D A AN D E R SO N Ti m e s Re po r t e r
One public art project breezed through the approval process at Langley City council on Monday night while for another, the process was a bit more of a squeaker. In January 2014, the City of Langley put out a call to artists for five public art projects, including a request for designs for street banners to hang in City Park, as well as artistic signage to direct visitors to Langley Community Music School, Al Anderson Memorial Pool and the park’s sports fields and other amenities. On Monday, a recommendation was brought forward from the City’s Recreation, Culture and Public Art Advisory Committee (RCPAC) to commission a series of banners by artist Fiona Moes Pel as well as a way finding “Info Tree” sculpture, designed by Paul Lipper and Mary Ann Liu. The sculpture’s design calls for metal limbs to branch out from the tree’s trunk and, at their tips, transform into silhouettes of people engaged in a range of sporting and cultural activities. Once the tree is installed, each branch will point in the direction where the specified activity takes place. Three members of council found the tree’s design confus-
ing and its price tag too high. Councillor Gayle Martin said that while she appreciates public art and would like to see more of it in the community, that isn’t the goal of this particular project. “This is not for public art, this is for way finding,” she said, noting that people driving by would not be able to make sense of the directions provided by the sculpture. Councillor Val van den Broek echoed Martin’s sentiments. “It’s not a way finding sign. That’s what we asked for. I want more public art, but it has to be appropriate.” When the call for the way finding sign was issued, the budget was capped at $25,000. The Info Tree sculpture is expected to cost $22,000. Councillor Dave Hall took exception to the price, saying that there are a number of parks within the City that lack adequate signage. For $22,000, it makes more sense to scale back the project and provide signage for other parks, he said. “I think we need to embrace art, whether or not we understand it,” said Councillor Paul Albrecht. “I think it’s quite unique; I’ve never seen anything like it before,” added Mayor Ted Schaffer. “It’s cool looking.”
“It’s a good selection,” said Councillor Rudy Storteboom, who represents council on the RCPAC. “I believe it would capture the imagination of the general public the way it captured the imagination of the committee.” Council voted 4-3 to proceed with the signage. Enthusiasm for Moes Pel’s banner designs, meanwhile, was more widespread. Colourful drawings separate the sports and artistic elements into two banners, but link them through use of common colours and design elements. The banners will hang along 207 Street between 48 and 51B Avenues at the edge of City Park. The City will pay the artist $250 for each design. “These are beautiful and at $500, we’re getting a deal,” said Hall. “These are very attractive,” agreed Martin. “I think this is wonderful. They’re colourful, vibrant, fantastic,” said van den Broek. Among the banner submissions, was a stack of designs from a Grade 5 class at nearby Blacklock Elementary. In addition to the larger banners, smaller banners, based on four of the school children’s designs have also been selected for display at Al Anderson pool.

Are another million people really coming? Mayors repeatedly say Metro Vancouver’s population will grow by another million people over the next 30 years. That statistic underpins the entire Yes campaign case for transportation expansion, so is it accurate? The projection the mayors use is a forecast from Metro Vancouver regional district planners that the current 2.5 million people in the region as of 2015 will reach 3.53 million in 2045. Demographer Andrew Ramlo at Urban Futures says his firm has its own population estimates and projects the extra million residents will arrive a few years sooner — in 2041 after 26 years, instead of 30. The provincial government’s BC Stats office has a slightly lower estimate of nearly 3.41 million by 2041, compared to Urban Futures’ 3.48 million that year. Ramlo says his firm assumes net migration of nearly 30,000 people into the region each year. That’s slightly above the pace of around 25,000 in the past year or two but below recent peak years of 45,000 — essentially on the average pace the region has already been experiencing. But Ramlo argues the estimated increase of one million does not tell the entire story, because the Metro-only numbers ignore population growth in the Fraser Valley, which also increases traffic congestion and transit demand in Metro. “We know we’ve got a good number of people living in the Valley who are working in Metro or living in Metro and working in the Valley,” Ramlo said. Add Fraser Valley population growth in, he says, and the gain for all of the Lower Mainland by 2041 is 1.22 million and the one-million increase is reached in 2036. “Whether it’s a million people in 2036, 2041 or 2045, we still have to plan for them and it’s the planning we can do in the short and medium term that will put us in good stead to deal with those changes.” Where do all the new people come from? International immigration is by far the largest source, adding 40,000-plus net new residents most years, while there’s typically a net outflow of several thousand from Metro to other regions of B.C., a few thousand arrive in Metro from other provinces, and smaller gains come from the “natural growth” of births exceeding deaths. Some referendum commenters suggest the region should stop accepting more people. But freedom of movement is a fundamental right in Canada, Ramlo notes, and immigration policy is set by Ottawa. “We’ve got really zero control over that because immigration levels are set at the federal level.” Adding more newcomers is essential to fill the jobs that will support the province’s aging, increasingly retired population, he added. “Where is your next nurse or care aide going to come from?” Ramlo asked. “It’s not just Starbucks jobs we’re talking about. It’s people’s doctors, people’s dentists, hygienists, your physiotherapists.” Metro cities are not entirely powerless to keep new people from coming here.
City councils could refuse to approve any more residential development — Port Moody did just that at one point until a funding impasse was resolved to get the Evergreen Line built. Ramlo acknowledged a new housing ban would be an option for cities, and there may be pressure for no-new-growth policies if the No side wins. He predicted that would slow but not stop the incoming flow of people to Metro Vancouver, resulting in enormous pressure to fit new arrivals into a capped housing supply through means such as many more illegal suites. He also warned there would be a profound effect on real estate markets if all new home construction was cut off for an extended period. “There would be very significant upward pressure on prices,” Ramlo said. “You think we have affordability challenges and issues right now? In that situation, they would grow at an exponential rate.” – Jeff Nagel Referendum Questions is a Black Press series exploring issues related to the Metro Vancouver transit and transportation referendum. Voters must mail in ballots by May 29 on whether they support the addition of a 0.5 per cent sales tax in the region, called the Congestion Improvement Tax, to fund billions of dollars worth of upgrades.

NDP leader John Horgan pronounced himself “ecstatic,” and hastened to assure reporters that Notley is “as competent as she sounds.” Notley now has to sort through a caucus that includes typical NDP place-holders, college students and union staff running in faint-hope constituencies.

A British company buying up thousands of hectares of cleared farmland in B.C.’s Interior for carbon offset projects will have to get its plans past B.C.’s Agricultural Land Commission first, Agriculture Minister Norm Letnick says. The B.C. government has compiled a list of farm properties totalling 7,000 hectares from Prince George to Quesnel that have been bought to grow trees, to offset carbon emissions from the U.K. That is in addition to nearly 1,500 hectares east of Vanderhoof that the company bought in 2008. That land was planted with aspens, and granted a 100-year covenant against logging that is required to qualify it as a carbon offset for Reckitt Benckiser Inc., a British maker of household and health care products with world-wide sales.

Albertans have always laughed about their long-standing reputation as a reckless, immature society. The classic bumper sticker, now available as a T-shirt or coffee cup in several variations, states: “Please God, give us one more oil boom, we promise not to p--it away this time.” Now they’ve thrown out the government that finally tried to stop blowing money like a roughneck fresh out of the bush. Jim Prentice had the gall to propose raising income taxes for high wage earners, doing away with former Alberta treasurer Stockwell Day’s signature flat tax. In response, voters have abruptly replaced the 44-year Progressive Conservative dynasty with an upstart NDP that wants to tax the rich and corporations even more. Facing an oil slump, layoffs and a huge structural deficit in Alberta’s lavish public service, NDP premier-elect Rachel Notley is committed to a 50 per cent increase in the minimum wage and another “review” of resource royalties. One headline in a national paper summed it up: “Go home, Alberta. You’re drunk.” In the sober days after the election, a few truths emerge. Alberta hasn’t been a fiscally conservative, small-government place for a long time. Among other things, it has ratcheted up teacher and nurse wages across the country. Alberta is broke, again, and even the NDP is afraid to resort to a sales tax. The minimum wage hike is a pet policy of Canada’s labour federations, which somehow remain convinced that poverty can be eliminated by state order.

To the hoots and cheers of fellow Aldergrove Secondary school students Travis Sharman climbed aboard the dunk tank during Tuesday’s (May 5) lunch break. Within minutes he was unceremoniously dunked with a splash, by a well-aimed baseball thrown by a teacher. Aldergrove Secondary students enjoyed a dunk tank and carnival fundraiser for Wigs for Kids on Tuesday’s lunch break. It was all the in the name of good fun and fundraising for Wigs for Kids BC, a volunteer run organization helps kids living with cancer enjoy a better life. And on Wednesday it culminated with Travis having his head shaved in the school gym, with his famous curly locks destined to help create wigs for kids who have lost their hair due to cancer. Students, family and other supporters filled the bleachers at Wednesday’s lunch-time assembly for their first look at Travis without his trademark afro hairstyle. As his father, Lyall, observed, “This is the first time in almost 16 years that we have seen Travis’s scalp. He’s had that afro for almost all of his life.” Wednesday’s event started with a crew waxing the legs of socials studies teacher Kyria-

ANNUAL ARMY AND NAVY SALE DRAWS A CROWD M O N I Q U E TA M M I N G A Tim e s Re po r t e r
Forget diamonds, shoes are a girl’s best friend. Once again, women — and some men — lined up for the 66th annual Army & Navy shoe sale on Wednesday, May 6 in Langley City. Manager Sarah Cole said they served the eager shoppers Tim Hortons coffee and cookies while they waited for the doors to open. Once the doors were opened, hundreds of women headed for the right size of shoe and started filling their baskets. Cole said wedges are very popular this year, but high heels are also a go-to, as is the case with sandals. The majority of the shoes were selling for $39.99.

shearing was completed. “We’re all very proud of Travis and what he has accomplished,” added Michelle. Travis told The Star that he had raised $4,600 in on-line donations as of Tuesday, May 5, with another $800 pledged in other donations, plus whatever funds were raised in the noon-hour school carnival and dunk tank. He said he was hoping to raise as much as $8,000 in total.
“It’s been really great, we raised tons of money.” Just before the shearing, Travis’s mother, Michelle, observed that the online fundraiser was $10 short of Travis’s $5,000 goal, so she added $25 to push it over the top. “The online total stands at $5,015 and the school events raised at least another $1,000, and money is still coming in,” Lyall said just after the

CLEANSING
TOWNSHIP SURVEY SHOWS MOST COMMUNITY HALLS ARE DOING WELL DAN FERGUSON Times Reporter
A new survey of Langley Township community halls has found most are in good physical and financial shape. As of 2013, the most recent year fiscal figures were available, 11 of the 15 halls were operating in the black, three were “close to breaking even” and one was in the red. The survey doesn’t identify the lone hall that lost money. It shows eight halls have seen revenues rise, five have reported no change and two reported a drop in revenue. About half of the halls were rated in good to excellent condition by the societies that operate them, while the rest were said to be in fair shape. None of the halls were rated poor, defined as “in need of immediate repair.” One hall complained about a shortage of parking spaces. The 15 halls range in age from 35 to 118 years. The smallest is the Aldergrove Veterans and Seniors Society Hall, which accommodates up to 50 people, while the largest is the West Langley Community

Willoughby community hall recently underwent extensive renovations. Hall, with room for up to 270. Eight of the 15 halls reported annual gross revenues of $24,000 or more. The survey shows that film and television production fees were a substantial source of revenue for the 15 halls, third in importance after rentals (ranked first) and government grants (ranked second). The most common events hosted at the halls were banquets, weddings, anniversaries and special events, followed by community meetings and fitness-related classes. Most users were private individuals and nonprofit clubs and service organizations, followed by businesses, religious organizations and government agencies. Most halls report-
ed annual expenses of more than $12,000, mostly for heat, light and insurance. Nine halls have paid staff. Four of the halls have seen a drop in the number of volunteers who look after the facilities, while two have seen an increase and the other nine report no significant change. The survey was conducted by the municipal Heritage Advisory Committee while it was working on the new Community Halls Sourcebook, a “go to” guide to help non-profit societies operate and maintain the halls. It covers everything from legal responsibilities and financial management, to building maintenance and succession planning. The book was officially unveiled May 5.
If you’re feeling sluggish, have low energy, or are having difficulty concentrating, it could be time for an internal cleanse. Your body regularly detoxifies itself by eliminating toxic materials through the kidneys, liver, colon, and bodily excretions. Cleansing boosts the body’s ability to perform this detoxification more thoroughly. Come in and learn more from our knowledgeable staff. Hydration Proper hydration facilitates the detoxification process. It is recommended to drink onehalf of your body weight in ounces of water per day. Also, a daily supplement of essential fatty acids, such as omega oils, lubricates membranes allowing for optimal performance and the removal of toxins.
Fibre Daily intake of 50% soluble and 50% insoluble fibre is essential for the removal of toxins. Soluble fibre absorbs the toxins that have been eliminated by the liver, without dehydrating the colon. Insoluble fibre works to sweep the toxins off of the intestinal walls to allow for removal.

Lots of barking over suggested dog park names B REN D A AN D E R SO N Ti m e s Re po r t e r
It took a rather dogged effort to come up with a name for a park in Langley City on Monday, April 27, after several members of council decided one of their colleagues was barking up the wrong tree with his recommendation. During a 15-minute discussion during the meeting, Councillor Dave Hall, who chairs the City’s Parks Environment Advisory Committee (PEAC), told council that committee members had come up with several options for naming the off-leash dog park, located under the Hydro transmission lines off 208 Street at 44 Avenue. With a second dog park scheduled to open in the City this year, PEAC had been tasked with deciding whether a name was needed for the existing park and, if so, what it should be. Noting that one suggestion, “Central
Bark,” didn’t make the final cut, Hall offered the four names that had made PEAC’s short list: Uplands, Happy Tails, Dogwood Park and Pleasantdale Dog Park. Hall recommended that council go with Dogwood Park — both because of the play on words and because of the dogwood’s significance as B.C.’s provincial flower — and the potential for the City to one day have its own arboretum in the park. “In treeing, what used to be a wasteland, a Hydro cut … dogwoods, the symbol of British Columbia, could be added,” Hall said. Naming the park gives it an identity rather than simply calling it dog park number one, or the very confusing Brookswood dog park, he added. However, council quickly unleashed its veto power, with some members declaring the park’s name should reflect its neighbourhood — Uplands — and another questioning whether the green space even
needed a name. Councillor Rudy Storteboom said that while he appreciated the levity involved with naming a dog park, it is important that it be identified as a City of Langley park because it sits on the municipality’s border with the Township. “I’m sorry I’m not as inspired as you about that name,” Storteboom told Hall. Councillor Gayle Martin suggested the name Dogwood could cause confusion among emergency responders because it included no indication of where the park is located. “I’m not in favour of naming it,” she said. “No matter what it’s called it’s going to be, ‘Up in the dog park in Brookswood.’” “If I had a choice of these four names I’d call it Uplands, because that’s the neighbourhood it’s in.” While questioning the need for a name, Martin noted that the sign at the park’s en-

trance clearly indicates it is located in the City. She also wondered what it would cost to replace or change the six-foot sign. City engineer Rick Bomhof said he would look into the costs, but added that any change to the park’s designation should be advertised. “I’m not necessarily inspired by Dogwood,” said Councillor Paul Albrecht, while acknowledging the effort that PEAC put into the project. “I’m more inclined to go with Uplands. “I like the name Uplands,” said Mayor Ted Schaffer. “It states where it is and adds to neighbourhood promotion. After Hall’s motion to adopt the name Dogwood Park failed — with only Hall in favour — Schaffer moved that the park be called Uplands Dog Park. The motion passed with Martin and Storteboom opposed.

The homes at Elgin House feature rich architectural character and stunning contemporary finishings.
NEW HOME DEVELOPMENT
Elgin House is a residential community with everything right at your doorstep
I
t’s easy to have it all at Elgin House – South Surrey’s newest collection of contemporary East Coast-style homes at an incredible value. Discover the residences at the landmark master planned community of Harvard Gardens in the Rosemary Heights neighbourhood, located at the intersection of 32nd Avenue and 152nd Street. The security of a quiet residential community combined with a bustling urban environment creates a convenient lifestyle that makes Elgin House so desirable – it’s all you could want right at your doorstep, including parks and trails. From acquiring everyday needs at Southpoint Exchange, spending an afternoon of leisurely shopping the array of boutiques at The Shops at High Street or Morgan Crossing, or hitting Morgan Creek Golf Course with friends on a sunny day. Craving a night out? There are plenty of nearby restaurants including Cactus Club Café and The Keg Steakhouse if you’re looking to grab a bite to eat, watch the game, or catch up with friends. There is something for everyone only minutes away, including transit and
Highway 99 for quick access to surrounding areas. Plus Elgin House is just a 10-minute drive away from the Peace Arch Border, Crescent Beach, and all the amenities of beautiful White Rock. Even YVR is a mere 30 minutes away. Throw in some of the region’s top schools and there is no question that Elgin House is the right choice, from budding families to downsizers alike. The South Surrey condos boast a contemporary touch inspired by the best of East Coast architecture, including brick and stone cladding, natural wood and black metal detailing. Once inside, homeowners will find a mix of one and two bedrooms with rich and durable laminate wood flooring in the entry, living, dining and kitchen areas, and plush carpet in bedrooms. Enjoy the spacious luxury
of over-height, 9-foot ceilings, and engineered stone countertops with islands perfect for entertaining and casual dining. Flat-panelled cabinetry features sleek polished chrome in either high gloss white or high gloss gray, and bathrooms includes modern patterned hand-set ceramic tile tub and shower featuring marble or glass mosaic accents. Homeowners will also enjoy a membership to the exclusive 9,000 square foot Rowing Club. The resort-style amenity is located just steps from Elgin House and features an outdoor pool and spa, gymnasium, fitness facilities, a screening room and more. To see this desirable community for yourself, visit the Elgin House sales centre – open 12pm to 6pm daily except Fridays in the master planned community of Harvard Gardens. “In addition to getting a taste of the beautiful community, visitors will also be able to tour Elgin House’s two display suites and learn more about the homes that are available,” says Goldie Alam, Senior Vice President Marketing. With construction well underway, Elgin House is set to complete in early 2016. For more information, visit polyhomes.com or call 604.541.8092.

Sweet success for Langley’s Dean GARY AH U J A Ti me s Re po r t e r
Retail has long been in Kriston Dean’s blood. Both her grandmother and mother worked in the retail industry, and her mother, Diane Kelly, still does. So the fact Dean followed in the family footsteps should come as little surprise. “I grew up in retail; I went on my first buying trip when I was 12 years old,” Dean said. “I learned about buying techniques and gross margin and all those things.” “Because I was involved so young, it was just natural for me to get my first job in a retail store and then move my way up,” she said. Dean worked her way up to district manager and then buyer, and so forth. Twenty-six years later, Dean finds herself as one of design:retail magazine’s Top 40 under 40, a list of the best and brightest in the North American retail industry. The 38-year-old Dean is the vice-president of merchandising and marketing for Purdys Chocolatier.
“I feel really honoured and proud to be part of this group,” she said. “It is a North American list, which is pretty amazing, highlighting the best and brightest in retail. “There are some amazing companies on the list … so to be among that peer group, I feel very fortunate to be part of (this list).” Dean flies to New York for the awards ceremony next week (May 18). In addition to being recognized at the ceremony, the recipients will all be paired with members of the Markopoulos Circle. The Markopoulos Award is a legacy award given every year to one outstanding industry professional with a history of excellence, mentorship and achievement. The idea is to foster casual conversation about the past and future of the industry, blending the perspectives of the experienced with the up and comers, Dean explained. Dean has been with Purdys since 2007. She was recruited to the company and relocated from Cal-
gary, with her husband Kelly and their 13-year-old daughter Abby and 11-year-old son Memphis. And while at their age, Dean had already accompanied her mother on a business buying trip, her own kids have visited her Vancouver office but have not gone on a buying trip. “(But) they are well aware of my habitual research when we are shopping retail,” she said with a laugh. “In my role, we are really focused on evolving our store design and our packaging and really understanding what the customer is looking for, which is really where my passion and my role takes me,” Dean said. Purdys Chocolatier is Canadian owned and the leading chocolatier in Canada with 72 stores in B.C., Alberta and Ontario. This is not Dean’s first time in the news either. In 2012, Dean appeared on the TV show Undercover Boss Canada. Dean was in disguise working at Purdys locations in Toronto and Edmonton as well as the factory kitchen in Vancouver.

Detached houses record fastest price gains JEF F N AGEL Bl ack Pre s s
Detached house prices climbed 5.2 per cent in the past year in the Fraser Valley, while townhouse and apartment prices are stagnant. The Fraser Valley Real Estate Board reported its benchmark price for houses continued to gain in the ear-
ly months of 2015 to reach $595,600 in April. That’s up 15 per cent from five years ago. The strongest gains were in South Surrey/White Rock, where houses were up eight per cent since April of 2014. Townhouses have been tepid, however, with the Fraser Valley benchmark price of $300,400 up just 0.6 per
cent from a year earlier and down 1.9 per cent from five years ago. Apartments have fared worse yet, with benchmark prices down 2.6 per cent from a year ago to $191,200. That’s a drop of 8.8 per cent from five years ago. Abbotsford has actually seen strong one-year price gains for townhouses (up
7.3 per cent) and apartments (up 11 per cent) but apartment price drops of around eight per cent or more in Langley, Surrey and North Delta have pulled the regional average down. Price gains continue to be stronger closer to Vancouver in communities tracked by the Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver, which
includes all cities north of the Fraser as well as Tsawwassen. The REBGV benchmark price for detached houses was up 12.5 per cent from a year ago to $1.08 million and runs as high as $2.5 million on Vancouver’s west side. Greater Vancouver townhouses gained 5.7 per cent on average from a year ago
to $493,300 and apartments climbed 4.4 percent to $394,200. “The supply of homes for sale today in the region is not meeting the demand we’re seeing from home buyers,” said REBGV president Darcy McLeod. “This is putting upward pressure on prices, particularly in the detached home market.”

Second-half surge sends Lightning to title GARY AHUJA Tim es Sports
The Langley Christian Lightning are bridesmaids no more. “One of the things I said to the girls this year was … we were tired of always going to Southridge’s field for the Fraser Valley final and watching them get the medals,” said Langley Christian coach Gregg Antoniuk. “And so, I said this is our year, this is the year we are going to do it. And it worked out.” Southridge had won the past four senior girls 1A soccer Fraser Valley championships and looked to be on their way to a fifth straight title after jumping out to a 2-0 halftime lead on Tuesday afternoon at Surrey’s Southridge School. But five minutes into the second half, Corina Beimers struck a free kick from 25 yards out to get the Lightning on the board. And eight minutes after that, Claire Yager scored off a scramble following a corner kick to pull Langley Christian level. After neither team scored in the 15-minute overtime, the
game went to penalty kicks. The Lightning shot second and made all five of their attempts while goalkeeper Hannah Miller stopped the second Southridge shooter for the 3-2 (5-4 penalty kicks) victory. “We set a goal this year of trying to win Fraser Valleys,” Antoniuk said. “It has been a long time since Langley Christian has won Fraser Valleys.” They last won the Valley title in 2010. During the regular season, Langley Christian, Southridge and Credo Christian all finished tied atop the league standings with 4-2 records as the teams took turns beating one another. And in Monday’s semifinal game, the Lightning once again needed penalty kicks to defeat Credo Christian 2-1 (4-2 penalty kicks) to earn a spot in the title game. That game, which was played at Credo on Monday, also required Langley Christian to rally for the win. The teams were scoreless at the half with Emily Vander-
gugten opening the scoring for the Kodiaks in the 12th minute. Langley Christian’s Tia Bruinsma tied the score in the 31st minute but neither team could score in overtime. The Lightning were forced to switch goaltenders with 12 minutes to play as Miller had another game to attend. But up stepped Beimers, who stopped two of the four Credo shooters while her teammates struck on their four attempts. Both Langley Christian and Credo Christian — as well as Southridge — will play at the provincial championships. The tournament will be held May 28 to 30 at Southridge. And regardless of what happens, Antoniuk knows the Lightning are in good shape for the years ahead as of the 22 players, just three are in Grade 12 and another three in Grade 11. “A very young team and things are looking good for the future,” he said. “There are some really good young players.”
Kodiaks qualify for provincials GARY AHUJA L an gley Tim es
Langley Christian’s Corina Beimers fends off Credo Christian’s Hannah Allison during the Fraser Valley 1A senior girls soccer semifinals at Credo Christian on Monday. Beimers was pressed into goaltending action late in the game and came up with two huge saves as the Lightning beat the Kodiaks in penalty kicks. Beimers also had a goal in the Fraser Valley final on Tuesday, which Langley Christian won 3-2 in penalty kicks over the Southridge Storm. Credo Christian took third in the Fraser Valley tournament and all three teams will compete at provincials later this month in Surrey.
GARY AHUJA Tim es Sports
After repeatedly coming up one goal short over the past few years, the Credo Christian Kodiaks are going to the B.C. championships. The senior girls soccer team defeated St.
John Brebeuf 1-0 on Tuesday afternoon at Credo Christian in the Fraser Valley 1A bronze medal game. Caitlin Sikma took a long pass from a defender and flipped it up and over the goalkeeper midway through the second half for the de-
cisive goal. “For the last several years, we have been within a goal of advancing to provincials,” said Credo coach Derek Hoogerdijk. “It was wonderful for the girls, especially after a well-played season, for them to
finally qualify for provincials.” The Kodiaks made the B.C. tournament — which will be played May 28 to 30 at Surrey’s Southridge School — for the first time since 2010. Continued Page 33
Overtime heartbreak as Redhawks fall short in Valley final GARY AH U J A Ti m e s Spo r ts
Despite controlling much of the play, the D.W. Poppy Redhawks could not score enough points, falling 13-10 in overtime to the South-
ridge Storm. The teams were playing in the Fraser Valley championship final for senior boys 2A rugby. The game was played on Wednesday afternoon at Abbotsford’s Rotary Stadium.
“The difference in the game was we couldn’t score on Southridge. They have a very strong defence,” said Poppy coach Kyle Barry. “I give them full credit for stopping our track; they
played a great defensive game.” Despite the loss, Barry was happy with his team’s performance. “We had the majority of the possession in the game
moving the ball, winning scrums and counter rucking, but just couldn’t get to the try line,” he said. The teams had also played in the first week of the regular season, with the Storm
winning that contest 12-5. Southridge was the top seed in the division while Poppy was second with a 5-2 record. Continued Page 35

‘One of the best teams I have coached’
From Page 31
“I think the goal, right from the beginning of the season, was to make provincials,” Hoogerdijk said. “We knew we would be in tough, but we worked hard. There were a couple of games early in the season that went poorly, but we built from that.” The team also won a tournament in Osoyoos. The Kodiaks have five Grade 12s and five Grade 11s, with seven Grade 10s and one Grade 9 on the roster. “We try to play a complete game,” Hoogerdijk said. “Everyone works hard to defend well and work the ball up as a team. “This has been one of the best teams I’ve coached.” He has coached the team for 14 seasons.

Poppy Redhawks’ Wes Foss scores a try against G.W. Graham at D.W. Poppy Secondary last week (May 7). Poppy won the Fraser Valley 2A senior boys rugby semifinal game 37-12.
Poppy making return trip to B.C. championships From Page 31
The Redhawks defeated Chilliwack’s Graham Grizzlies 37-12 in the semifinals last week while the Storm beat the Mountain Eagles in the other semifinal. The Grizzlies beat the Eagles in the Fraser Valley third-place game and the top three teams were guaranteed spots at the provincial championships, which begin May 23. Mountain did qualify for provincials, however, after defeating a team from the Okanagan, Clearwater-Barriere, 15-5 in a wildcard game. Poppy, who won the Fraser Valley title in 2014 and finished eighth at provincials last year, has five returnees from that squad. “I think they learned that this
(Fraser Valleys and provincials) are a grind and having a full team is beneficial in the B.C.’s,” Barry said. “The team also learned this year that rugby is more than just a game: it’s a family, and a brotherhood, and it’s been amazing to see them all become friends on and off the field. “I think they have learned to play as a team and as a family.” At the start of the year, the Redhawks had a pair of goals. One of those was to win Fraser Valleys, which they came up short in. But the other goal is still attainable: a top eight finish at provincials. “Like I said to my guys today, myself and my fellow coaches are extremely proud of the year that we have put together so far

and look forward to finishing the season at provincials,” Barry said. To prepare for provincials — and to take advantage of the number of players they had — Poppy ran two senior teams: one which played in league and the other which was an exhibition team that faced 3A second division teams. Barry likes his team chances to finish in the top half at provincials. “Our team is very well-rounded; we have a solid group of forwards who all do their jobs and are strong tacklers and a back line that is good on both sides of the ball,” he said. “We won our games by executing our game plan and grew stronger as the season continued.”

Several cardiovascular disease prediction “tools” exist (Framingham is probably the most famous one), but now a new one has been developed which incorporates fitness level. Your fitness (or lack of it) has been determined to be a powerful predictor of your risk of developing cardiovascular disease, along with cholesterol/ triglycerides, blood glucose/diabetes, blood pressure, body-mass index (BMI), smoking status, age and personal history. One of the biggest obstacles to exercise is finding time, but research is finding that it only takes a little bit of exercise to reap big benefits. Investigators found that as little as 10 minutes of running per day, even at low intensity, resulted in a significant reduction is all-cause mortality – including cardiovascular disease. Better results were associated with the standard 30-40 minute/ day recommendation, but this is proof that even a little is better than nothing! A pair of PhD students in the UK has performed a systematic review of all the literature pertaining to walking groups and the findings are gratifying.
Participants experienced reductions in blood pressure, resting heart rate, cholesterol and body fat. And, while there weren’t significant improvements to fasting blood BOB SANGHA glucose or waist circumference, Pharmacist, BSc walkers enjoyed improved endurance and fitness and less depression. And, it’s just plain more fun than walking alone! Want a simple suggestion for improving fitness? Ditch the car! Those who use “active” transportation, such as walking or cycling to work/school – even if combined with using public transportation – lower their body-mass index (BMI) and body fat composition and reduce their risk of high blood pressure and diabetes. Certainly by the time you factor-in the environmental benefits, active commuting is a win-win idea! Walk-on down to our pharmacy to talk to our pharmacist about steps you can take to improve your health with exercise – cuz even a little bit of effort is going to go a long way!

It was close but no cigar for Langley United’s U15 boys soccer team. The squad was down 2-0 after the first half before eventually losing 2-1 to the Coquitlam Strikers in the Coastal Cup soccer finals at Aldergrove Athletic Park last week (May 2). Langley had plenty of chances, especially in the first half, as they hit two posts and one crossbar. Despite the loss, Langley United will join the Strikers at the Provincial Cup finals in 100 Mile House in July.

1987 AMC Alliance
By Leon Rochocco, Jr. “Sex Sells” has long been a popular tenet in advertising. And sex appeal has typically made it easier to sell cars. The movie industry has always favoured convertibles for their leading men and women, whether Carey Grant, Sophia Loren, Grace Kelly, Kevin Costner or Susan Sarandon. Virtually any car becomes sexy when you chop the top, but I did say virtually. These five cars resist the glamour and glitz that often come with convertibles. 1985-1987 AMC Alliance Convertible: Built in the United States using a 1.7-litre engine and transmission from Renault, the Alliance was very much French in feeling. It was small, mundane in appearance and less than

A good measure of its appeal then is its collectability and desirability now, which is nil. 1989 Yugo Cabriolet: The formula for the Yugo was simple and it was laughable. Buy a 20-year-old-design of a highly rust-prone Italian economy car, barely update it and ship it to America by the thousands. At first, people will buy a product that is vastly cheaper than the competition, but once the public finds out that it is slow, unattractive, outdated, uncomfortable and minimally reliable, the charm leaves in a hurry. Did a convertible version help the

this American icon, though the story would be very different if we were talking about a 1940 Ford Convertible Coupe. 1961-1963 Rambler American: The Rambler had to be one of the most sensible cars built in North America: properly engineered to conservative standards, with incredibly reliable straight-six engines and pricing within reach of middle class budgets. For 1961, the line offered a convertible and it was a lot like its sibling— responsible, sturdy and dull. In appearance and performance, the new drop-top was essentially an open-air version of an orthopedic shoe.

There’s no question that lowering the top on the Lark made for a pleasant experience, but it didn’t change the status of this car from dud to stud when it came to sex appeal. 1908-1927 Model T Ford: Ford’s Tin Lizzie has always been rugged, reliable and in a class of its own. But sexy? Not likely. The roadster or touring car versions may be fun, simply because fun goes with open-air motoring like peanut butter goes with jelly. Sex appeal, though, simply isn’t part of the equation with
