Township of Langley crews work to extinguish a massive fire that broke out just before 4 a.m. Sunday in a wood frame building that was under construction in Murrayville. Residents of two nearby condominium complex awoke to the sounds of fire alarms and police officers pounding on doors. More than 200 people were initially evacuated from the Murray Green and Autumn Ridge complexes. Units along the east side of Murray Green suffered varying levels of heat and water damage. Firefighters pulled down ceilings in fourth floor units to check for fire in the building’s roofline and some doors were broken in by police during the evacuation.

Residents of a Murrayville condominium complex will be out of their homes for some time after a massive fire destroyed an apartment building under construction next door early Sunday. Just before 4 a.m. the wood-frame structure,

which was being built at the corner of 221 Street and 49 Avenue, caught fire and was quickly engulfed in flames. Township fire crews used two ladder trucks to pour water on the blaze, using the force of the hoses to knock burning walls inward and contain the fire. At the back of the site,

several loud explosions sent bursts of orange flame and clouds of black smoke curling into the air. The east side of Murray Green, a condominium complex that is separated from the site of the fire by a fence, suffered both heat and water damage, rendering a number of units uninhabitable, said

Fire crews battle auto shop blaze GARY AH U J A Ti m e s Re po r t e r

A car fire inside of an auto body shop kept Langley City Fire and Rescue busy on Friday morning. Firefighters responded to an alarm at 9:15 a.m. and rushed to the scene at Bert’s Automotive Transmission. “It was pretty spectacular,” said fire chief Rory Thompson of the black smoke which could be seen hovering over the building. “(But) it went down pretty easy. Thankfully most of the damage was confined to the car.” Workers were doing some welding on one of the vehicles inside the building. Thompson said they believe some hot sludge dripped down onto the sealer that is inside the car door, causing the blaze. Sixteen firefighters, three engines, a ladder truck and a rescue truck were on scene. They were on scene until shortly before 11 a.m. Police, ambulance and WCB were also on hand.

Convicted murderer Shawn Merrick was arrested hiding on the roof of a home in Murrayville last Wednesday night. RCMP say Merrick, who escaped minimum security prison on March 31, had been on the lam ever since, was arrested without incident in the 21900 block of 44A Avenue at 11 p.m. He was captured in a co-ordinated efforts between Langley RCMP, Surrey RCMP, Emergency Response Team, Integrated Police Dog Services and Air 1 were instrumental in the safe ap-

prehension of this wanted man. Tips from the public also helped lead police to locating Merrick, said Surrey RCMP Insp. Manny Mann. He has been transported back to prison to finish serving his sentence and has been charged with six new counts of robbery. As a fugitive, Merrick managed to rob six banks, four of them in Langley. The most recent

bank robbery was on May 4 in Aldergrove. Surrey and Langley RCMP are now sifting through a significant number of tips received from the public, said Mann. The viable tips will be provided to the Canadian Bankers Association, who had offered a $10,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of Merrick.

A three-year-old girl was located safe in the back seat of a car in Vancouver, following a police pursuit that started in Langley on Friday. She was reportedly taken by a man alleged to be her father after her mother was run over by a car near 200 Street and 64

Avenue. The mother’s injuries were said to be non-life threatening. Police vehicles and a helicopter chased the fleeing vehicle into Vancouver. Vancouver police said the driver rammed several police cruisers before he was arrested with the aid of a police dog team. The suspect was transported to hospital with dog bites. The child was found unharmed and strapped into her car seat. At the Langley Times’ press time on Tuesday, no names had been released.

sounding in these buildings, nobody was evacuating their residence,” police said in a written release. About 40 officers, including a number from Surrey RCMP, Abbotsford police department, the Integrated Road Safety Unit and Police Dog Services pounded on doors in an effort to get residents out of both Murray Green and nearby Autumn Ridge. Autumn Ridge residents were allowed to return home about two hours later. Victim Services was called in to attend to the approximately 150 people evacuated from Murray Green, who were bused to a temporary shelter at the nearby Blair Recreation Centre. Still wearing pyjamas and robes, with small dogs on leashes, many sat watching the fire as they waited for information. Several people expressed concern about the fate of cats that had to be left behind when they fled. Ross told them during a short briefing session at around 7:30 a.m. that the atmosphere inside the building, as far as smoke and heat levels were concerned, was “quite survivable” for any animals left inside. However, he said, RCMP had to break in a number of doors to ensure that nobody was inside, meaning some pets may have escaped from their units into the main part of the building. Police cordoned off 221 Street between 48 Avenue and Fraser Highway to traffic, but dozens of people gathered in a large vacant lot across the road to watch as the structure burned to the ground.

Township firefighters are calling the blaze suspicious. flames rose straight into the air, sparing nearby trees, however a crane on the site appeared to have suffered serious damage One firefighter was taken to hospital with exhaustion, said Ross. According to Langley RCMP, one Langley police officer also suffered from heat exhaustion and smoke inhalation. The cause of the fire is under investigation, but firefighters are calling it suspicious because the building was in the frame-up stage, with no electricity running into the site. There was no security on site, but there are surveillance cameras.

Will road pricing or new bridge tolls also come? Metro Vancouver mayors aim to introduce road pricing, which could replace the current system of tolling only new bridges with consistent tolls on all existing crossings, or per-kilometre road use charges on all major routes. So is that idea also scuttled if Metro voters defeat the proposed 0.5-per-cent sales tax increase that would fund transit expansion across the region? The Mayors’ Council intends to explore road pricing options regardless of the outcome.

A referendum No vote on the congestion tax does not block tolls on a replaced Pattullo Bridge nor does it prevent an eventual move to road pricing. Mayors propose road pricing be revenue-neutral under a Yes outcome that authorizes the new sales tax; road use fees would replace bridge tolls within eight years and allow a sixcent-per-litre reduction in the TransLink gas tax. A No vote that blocks the extra $250 million per year from sales tax may create more pres-

sure to instead pursue the idea as a revenue generator. Port Coquitlam Mayor Greg Moore said there’s been no debate about that and the province has been clear that any new funding source has to go to referendum. Road pricing is part of the mayors’ long-range vision because making drivers pay to travel by road is expected to have a profound effect on how they choose to get around. Road tolls that change by the time of day — charging more at peak times and less or

zero off-peak — would spur some drivers to drive at cheaper times or take transit, easing the worst congestion at rush hour peaks and making the system more efficient, experts say. “It spreads the peak,” said Robin Lindsey, transportation and logistics professor at UBC’s Sauder School

of Business. “Those people who are more flexible will go to the off-peak and the people that have no choice but to travel on the peak and pay will have quicker trips.” The ideal system, he says, would be one where vehicles are tracked by satellite and charged according to how far they drive.

“It’s an economist’s dream and most motorists consider it their nightmare,” said Todd Litman of the Victoria Transportation Policy Institute. He calls road pricing a smart solution compared to raising revenue from other types of taxes, because of its ability to limit congestion. “If it’s done correctly, it’s a real win-win.” A modest toll on all major bridges — $1 to $2 on any crossing of the Fraser River, Burrard Inlet and False Creek, with reductions at off-peak times — instead of higher tolls on just a few would greatly improve congestion, Litman predicts. Years of study is expected before one recommended model for road pricing emerges. Tolling gantries could also be erected to charge drivers to use highways or to cross specific lines in the region so the system captures east-west trips that don’t cross bridges, such as Coquitlam to UBC or Fort Langley to Tsawwassen. Litman also agreed a comprehensive GPSbased tracking system would be the ultimate way to track all vehicle trips and charge according to where they travel and when. Singapore has had road pricing with gantries for years but is moving to a GPS system to charge by distance. Oregon is testing a voluntary road-pricing system that uses GPS to charge 1.5 cents per mile driven in exchange for a rebate on fuel taxes. Litman said the pricing system could have a daily cap on the maximum a driver is charged, or a home zone exemption that allows a certain num-

ber of free kilometres each day. Road pricing could also fix the unfairness of the current system of just tolling new bridges, which causes people to drive far out of their way to avoid paying. The mayors’ plan projects a 24-per-cent drop in how far people drive over the next 30 years. “This progress comes partly through investment in alternatives to driving, but fully three quarters of that progress is from the introduction of time- and distance-based road tolls,” the plan says, adding “pricing will need to play a pivotal role” to reach plan targets. Any road pricing scheme would have to recover at least the $120 million a year in tolls paid at the Port Mann Bridge and $40 million at the Golden Ears, plus presumably finance new bridges to replace the Pattullo, the Massey Tunnel and potentially others in the future. According to mayors’ council estimates, each penny charged per kilometre travelled could add up to roughly $100 million per year in revenue under a road pricing scheme. It would take about $115 million to chop the gas tax from 17 to 11 cents a litre, or $350 million to eliminate it altogether. Without road pricing, new bridges are assumed to be tolled like the Port Mann. Transportation Minister Todd Stone has promised a review of the province’s current tolling policy, which allows tolls only on new infrastructure and only if there’s a free alternative.

Animal lover and former Times columnist Mike Harvey has died MONIQUE TAMMINGA Times Reporter

Somewhere in Langley, dogs and cats have let out a small whimper. A lover of animals and the written word has left this world. Mike Harvey passed away on May 9 at the age of 89. A prolific letter writer to the Langley newspapers, Harvey wasn’t afraid to share his opinion on a variety of topics. He was even a Langley Times columnist in the early 1980s.

Harvey was born in England in 1926. He endured boarding school from the age of six until lying about his age to join the Canadian Army at the age of 16. He served in Belguim, Germany and Holland during the Second World War, and became a paratrooper. His civilian life was also an adventure, from working in the newspaper profession to the hypnosis field. He also coached soccer in Langley with a lot of success. He is

Road pricing is ‘great in theory’ From Page 6

He has indicated the current tolling system would have to be reorganized in the name of fairness if the region ends up with just one heavily congested untolled crossing of the Fraser — the Alex Fraser Bridge. The No campaign leader Jordan Bateman said he’s not yet convinced the existing Massey Tunnel needs to be replaced and he doesn’t buy claims road pricing would be revenue-neutral. He said there are privacy concerns about a GPS system, which would be complex and fraught with potential problems. “In theory, road pric-

ing is great,” Bateman said. “But when TransLink gets their hands on theoretical things and makes them real, they have a disturbing habit of screwing them up.” – Jeff Nagel Referendum Questions is a Black Press series exploring issues related to the Metro Vancouver transit and transportation referendum.

also a talented author of several books, most notably Laddie, the tearjerker tale of an adopted dog who changed his life. He was a volunteer at Meals on Wheels, keen member of the Langley Seniors Centre and Langley Legion and a volunteer at the Langley Animal Protection Society. The owner of dozens of dogs and cats, sometimes 10 at a time, his affection for furry four-legged ones found its way into his writing and his heart.

He donated all the proceeds from the sales of his books to LAPS, donating upwards of $10,000. He also did volunteer dog walking until he couldn’t do so physically. “Mike will be remembered fondly. He will go down as the first recipient of the Patti Dale Award of Excellence,” said animal shelter manager Sean Baker. Harvey is survived by his wife Shirley, two daughters, a son and many grandchildren. No funeral service is planned.

One of the side effects of having fixed election dates in Canada, a move that was pioneered by the BC Liberals when they first were elected here in 2001, is that campaigns have become much, much longer. In fact, having a short campaign period is considered a disaster by most political handlers now. One of the criticisms made of the Alberta Progressive Conservatives (after the fact, of course), is that they only had a 28-day period to campaign in. Premier Jim Prentice in fact broke the fixed election date law and called an election a year early. That didn’t go so well. The federal election campaign has actually been underway for some time — certainly since the beginning of the year. While Parliament is still sitting and passing laws, MPs and candidates of all stripes are hard at work getting ready for the October election. Here in Langley, the candidates in the new Cloverdale-Langley City riding are mostly in place and several have already set up campaign offices. They are taking time off from their jobs to campaign, and that’s what they are spending much of their time doing. Because of the long campaign period, voters need to treat almost everything said or done by political parties, and particularly by their leaders, with a great deal of skepticism. They need to follow the advice of lead singer Sting of The Police in the song Every Breath You Take: “Every vow you break Every smile you fake Every claim you stake I’ll be watching you.” NDP leader Thomas Mulcair was in Surrey for a rally Friday night. This clearly was an election-related visit. Surrey gains a new riding under redistribution (it will have a total of five, including the Cloverdale-Langley City one). Two of the current Surrey ridings are held by NDP MPs, and the NDP are doing well in recent opinion polls. The surprising win of the NDP in Alberta is causing more people across Canada to look at the federal party a little more closely. Some are, for the first time, actually considering it as a government in waiting. Prime Minister Stephen Harper has also made a number of visits to the Lower Mainland in recent weeks — with at least two of them to Surrey. One was to the Kwantlen Polytechnic University campus in Cloverdale, part of the new riding. Other party leaders will also be nearby — and probably more than once. Voters aren’t too engaged in federal politics right now,. but the parties most certainly are.

Question

of the week

Should the process of giving Township organizations community grants be tightened up?

Answer online at www.langleytimes.com

They got it wrong they

The provincial Electoral Boundaries Commission got it remarkably wrong in terms of proposed changes to provincial boundaries in Abbotsford and Langley. They don’t make sense, as recently noted by the Abbotsford Chamber of Commerce and Mayor Henry Braun, who sent letters of opposition to the commission. From its current three, Abbotsford would see five MLAs, four of whom would also represent significant portions of Langley, Fort Langley, Mission or Chilliwack. One riding would be solely within Abbotsford. Instead of moving the Fort Langley-Aldergrove boundary to the west to take into account growth in Langley, the commissioners split Langley in half along Highway 1. But in order to find enough people to fill two of the three ridings, the commission reached deep into Abbotsford, including rural and urban areas west and south of the Abbotsford-Clearbrook town centre area, and going as far east as the Huntingdon-Sumas border crossing.These decisions serve none of the communities well. There will be four MLAs juggling Abbotsford, Langley, Mission and Chilliwack issues. Langley and Abbotsford aren’t even in the same regional district, and major transportation issues such as TransLink aren’t relevant here. The commission is accepting comments until May 26. Those with concerns can check out bc-ebc.ca for more details, or to provide input. — Abbotsford News

Concerns about Seniors’ Centre Editor: I am writing out of a deep concern for the Langley Seniors Resource and Recreation Centre. The current board of directors seem to have lost their way. In my opinion, the purposes of the society have not been followed since October, 2014. Not only have employees and volunteers been relieved of their positions, other valued and trusted individuals have left the centre out of protest. Furthermore, members are withdrawing their services from the centre and their followers are honouring them by following them out the door. The board of directors, following a special board meeting, have offered to refund my membership fee in full, Do they want to get rid of me? Probably. At two membership meetings, I have asked pointed questions about the legitimacy, behaviour and techniques of the board, as governed by the constitution. To date, no responses have been forthcoming. During the meeting when the board asked for my membership back, they intimated that I not talk about this meeting. I felt my freedom of speech at the centre had been threatened. The membership of the Seniors Resource and Recreation Centre has taken a stand, to hold a special membership meeting for a vote of non-confidence, in order to remove the current board. It’s about time, I say. Hopefully, a new board will help restore the centre to its previous status, where members can thrive. BARBARA DALY, LANGLEY Editor: For 23 years, our chef at the Langley Seniors Resources Centre prepared amazing meals. Even the chair of our board commented on our “amazing food” last August. But now a new crew is in place, offering things like wieners in mushroom gravy or lentil stew. It’s embarrassing. Who would ever invite a friend to go there? In the past, the management team worked together to bring the senior community special events that were fantastic, and built a solid catering business serving the local corporate community. Members were proud to volunteer and do what they could to contribute to the success of the centre. Since management changed last year, many volunteers have been made to feel unwanted. They have backed away from the volunteer positions they held for years. An extraordinary meeting has been called for May 26, to vote on a special resolution to remove the directors. We want community-minded, caring staff to bring our centre back to life. JOYCE KING, LANGLEY

208 Street needs widening Editor: I have been waiting for action in regards to a statement made by Mayor Jack Froese. This was concerning the widening of the 208 Street connector, with Froese suggesting it could be paid for by the Township. At the time, I thought this was a great idea and showed real character on his behalf. This initiative would ease the everyday stress of the commuters and residents along this vital corridor. This is similar to the great foresight shown by a previous administration in the construction of the 208 Street overpass.

I have not changed my opinion in the intervening months. Having the Township head up the project would definitely speed up the process — instead of waiting for five to seven years, its benefits could be realized in two. Even if this idea is rejected by the relevant department, I wish to thank the mayor of the Township of Langley for at least trying to put all the residents of the municipality first. BRUCE JONES, LANGLEY

Death may not be due to speed Editor: I would like to respond to the letter by Patricia Tallman calling for speed traps (The Times, May 15). I fail to see how a vehicle could possibly kill a rabbit between those overkill speed bumps in front of Alex Hope school. It was more likely killed by a predator who dropped it while crossing the road. There are hawks and owls and coyotes in that area. In regards to the traffic around Willoughby Elementary, I have noticed that since the approach roads and intersection at 80 Avenue and 208 Street have been upgraded, the school zone speed signs are no longer posted. There are many crosswalk warning signs but no speed restriction signs any more. Perhaps there should be, but to the best of my knowledge when a school or playground is fenced, speed restrictions are not posted, as is the situation at Willoughby Elementary.

I do agree that people speed excessively, on 208 Street in particular. While we are on the subject, and I hope someone at the Township reads this, why is it that developers are only required to upgrade only one side of 208 Street when building a new complex? They upgrade the street in front of their project. That road is a mishmash of new and/or broken pavement. Developers should be required to pave both sides of the street, not only for everyone’s comfort and safety, but to save money, time and effort on behalf of the Township, which has to finish the other side eventually, we hope. They should be required to do both sides in order to provide smooth passage over the damage done by their heavy construction equipment. JEFF LAURIE, LANGLEY

What is lottery winner trying to hide? Editor: I am writing about the person who does not want his picture or information published, in regard to a $50 million lottery win. First of all, why should this person have the right to not let it be public. I know from reading news reports that this person has a lawyer. This is very strange. What is this person hiding from or from whom? What secret does this person have that no one should know about? Is it family that will want some of this money? Is it perhaps related to when this person bought the winning ticket? Is there a possibility that he is a fugitive? Or does he or she have a spouse that he should be sharing it with, because they were not divorced at the time? If he or she gets away with not following the rules of the

lottery , many others will want to follow suit. People would do so simply because we just do not want all our relatives and long-lost friends coming for loans. I am a senior and I was not divorced when this ticket was purchased. One cannot help but wonder. Whatever it is, to this person it must be something shady if he or she is willing to pay a lot of money to a lawyer to try to get away with this. I just feel there is much more to this story. It is something to think about. Thank you for considering publication of this letter. I believe it is important to point out that this may be due to the winner not wishing to share this lottery win with a spouse. CAROLYN HAMELIN, LANGLEY

Mike Harvey’s insights will be missed Editor: Michael Harvey (story, page 7) has been a longtime contributor to the Langley Times and the Langley Advance, and I often meet up with people who looked forward to his thoughts and opinions. As his family, we are all very sad. We will miss him dearly.

Not only as family members, but also fans of his insights and opinions, like many others in the community that he has touched we feel a great force of nature has left us. FAYE CAUSLEY, LANGLEY

Large crowd at Fort Langley May Day

Glorious weather and a host of activities, including the ever-popular parade down Glover Road, brought big crowds to Fort Langley on Monday. It was the 93rd annual Fort Langley May Day event. The parade featured marching bands, tractors, animals and many community-themed displays. The overall event also featured maypole dancing and many other family activities at Fort Langley Community Park. The weather helped make the event a big success this year, and organizers are already making plans for next year. D A N FE R GUS ON Langley Time s

It might seem like Langley is going to the dogs. An estimated 18,000 dogs live in the Township. With that many canines, LAPS is hoping to get most of them licensed. LAPS have staff who go doorto-door each year from March until the end of September, making it convenient for dog owners to comply with the licensing requirement. “This campaign has been extremely successful and has seen licensing rates almost double over the last 10 years,” said animal shelter manager Sean Baker. In fact, a 2009 study showed that the Township of Langley had the highest number of licensed dogs per household in Metro Vancouver. In 2014, approximately 12,000 dog licences were issued in the Township. The revenue generated by dog licence fees helps to offset some of the costs of providing animal services Audi Langley BMW Langley in the City and Township. LAPS animal control officers (604) 539-0255 (604) 533-0269 are on shift seven days a week to care for stray and lost AudiLangley.com BMWLangley.com dogs. Also, the Patti Dale Animal Shelter is a first class facility that provides exceptional care for dogs that need a safe place. “I have heard many dogs owners say that their dog never gets out or lost, but more than 80 do each month,” said Baker. Langley Bypass “And because of the services supported by licensing revenue, these dogs live and go home safely.” The Township charges $31 to license a spayed or neutered dog. The cost for an animal that is not fixed is $60. In the City, spayed/neutered costs $42. Not fixed is $84.

Other common problems Siverston and his team see are jaw, shoulder, knee and elbow injuries. “Each patient has a different injury or pain, different goals, and different time lines that are acceptable to them,” he said. “We work with each person in a 30 or 60 minute one-to-one appointment in a private treatment room to get them better as fast as possible.” While not all injuries are preventable, Siverston always encourages patients, no matter their age, to keep moving. “If I could give every person a ‘fit tip,’ it would be to get up more and move more. It can help you be healthier, happier and have less pain. If a person is still having troubles, Pure Form Physio is happy to assist. “ A doctor’s referral is not required for private physiotherapy and massage therapy services; however, some private health insurance companies do require a referral.

These people often have strength and muscle control imbalances that we are very good at finding and correcting.” And while lower back pain is a common concern for patients at Pure Form, it’s just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the gamut of conditions the clinic treats. “The body has 206 bones and about 400 relevant muscles -- that’s a lot of room for things to be strained, sprained, irritated or broken ,” explained Siverston. “We treat many patients that have been involved in motor vehicle accidents and so we accept ICBC claims. A couple of our therapists specialise in post-surgical management. We also see many people with hip and pelvic pain, whether it be due to sports injuries, pregnancy related problems, or from poor movement patterns and posture.

Langley Inventor to be awarded the Order of British Columbia

Norman Rolston to be recognized for his invenƟon of the Able Walker J IM MCGRE G O R

Sixteen exceptional civic leaders will be appointed to the Order of British Columbia (O.B.C.), the Province’s highest form of recognition, Lieutenant-Governor Judith Guichon, Chancellor of the Order, announced today. “For 26 years, the Order of British Columbia has recognized the remarkable accomplishments and efforts by extraordinary British Columbians,” said Lt.-Gov. Judith Guichon. “This year we honour British Columbians from a variety of fields, each recipient illustrating the positive difference just one person can make in the lives of many.” “The Order of British Columbia recognizes British Columbians whose positive impact is felt throughout the province and, in some cases, the world,” said Premier Christy Clark. “This year’s recipients have utilized their talent and passion to make a difference. On behalf of all British Columbians, I want to thank them for their dedication, and all they do to make B.C. a wonderful place to live, work and raise a family.” One of those sixteen will be a very proud resident of Langley, Norm Rolston. Norm will be recognized for his invention of the Able Walker, the first wheeled walker. “Back in 1986, I got the idea for the Able Walker from watching my aunt Maida trying to walk across the floor

pushing a kitchen chair,” Norman says. “It was a painful experience for her to move or bend so, using old shopping carts and a stroller, soon I had a walker that she could use to hold on to, to go shopping with. Well, her friends soon needed one like it and so on, and soon I couldn’t take a day off I was so busy building them. There were walkers around at the time I designed mine but, they didn’t have casters on the front so you could turn it. Mine had other features too, the handholds are at the front gave real support, and you can put on the brakes when you had to.” “My wife Myrtle and I ran off a bunch of flyers with a picture demonstrating a woman using the Able Walker. It had a few lines describing it and the price, $259.50. We stuck these flyers up in every Laundromat, bulletin board, old folk’s homes, recreation and bingo hall from Vancouver to Saskatoon. We practically lived right out of the van. By the time we got back home to Burnaby orders were starting to roll in.”

When medical people had their doubts I showed them my picture and letter from the Surgeon General and they backed down. Now I have doctors say to me, ‘Norman I wasn’t too sure about that at first. But I have no doubts about it now.’ I’ve been told by doctors that patients they had who could never before attend their clinics come in with their “Able Walkers” confident as can be. It’s the change of attitude, the independence that’s been given to them. “I just borrowed some good ideas and made them come together in place.” Norman shrugs off his lack of formal education. He had only a grade 7 education, but never let even that get in the way of success. “The biggest regret in my life was not leaving school three or four years earlier. My only credential is a D.O.P.E. - Doctor of Personal Experience.” “Sometime I would be on a stage making a presentation and here I was with no medical knowledge of bones or muscles but I was an old farm boy and could see what was needed and I listened to the people who needed help. “I got a lesson in geography when all these foreign sales orders coming in. I travelled all over bringing the idea to

While the walker was becoming popular, the biggest challenge was overcoming the skepticism of the medical profession. “They had reason to be wary. Other walkers weren’t safe. They toppled over too easily. But I meet with C. Everett Koop the Surgeon General of the United States and he thought it was a great invention.

Queen and they told him he couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t bring the walker on the plane. He told them he was going to meet the Queen and if his walker didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t go, he wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t going.â&#x20AC;? Norm has apple boxes full of testimonial letters from around the world and albums full of photos with celebrities such as George Burns, Margaret Thatcher, Juliette, Kitty Wells and Rita McNeil. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was proud to present one to Annette Funicello when she contracted MS. Her letter was very touching.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Eventually I had to have the walkers manufactured in Taiwan to meet the demand and the pricing. My goal was to have 1 million people using this device worldwide, whether it was my design or someone elseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s prototype. Early on, my legal folks told me that whether I had the patent or not, the

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Big Boysâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; would eventually out produce me if it was successful. That was good knowledge because I resigned myself to the fact that if I was prepared to give my invention to others, they couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take it from me.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was very pleased that the Able Walker was giving people back their freedom and independence and that meant more to me than money. Six months after we started selling them I received a letter from a mother of a 13 year old boy who had cerebral palsy. He was walking and playing soccer for the first time in years using his walker. I knew thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what this was all about.â&#x20AC;? In 1993, Norm was especially proud to receive the Special Humanitarian Award, which recognized the profound effect the Able Walker has had on seniorsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; freedom and independence a conference in Pasade-

na. This was only one of many accolades and awards Norm and his walker received. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Los Angeles Times voted the Able Walker one of the Top Ten International Inventions of the 1990s, and recognized it as a device that improved the quality of life for all generations.â&#x20AC;? When asked to comment on his Order of British Columbia Norm replies, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am much honored that I have good friends that would take the time to nominate me. When I heard there were over 250 nominations, I was overwhelmed that a kid from a dirt poor Saskatchewan farm will be honored in such a way. My life is pretty good right now. The Order of British Columbia will be presented to Norm at Government House on June 15th with Normâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s friends and family in attendance.

WANT TO HEAR

A SECRET?

1 in 4 people will experience hearing loss. Are you willing to take the risk?

1 in 4 Canadians identify themselves as deaf, or hard of hearing.* Hearing loss does not discriminate by race, age sex or occupation and can sneak up on you at any time, causing confusion, frustration and stress for you and your loved ones. Unaddressed hearing loss can have an impact on your earning potential, and in seniors, can put them at a higher risk of developing dementia, a loss of brain function that can affect memory, thinking, language, judgement and behaviour (Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine). A simple hearing screening can dramatically improve your quality of life!

Downsizing LILIANNE FUL L E R

There’s more to downsizing than simply moving. Seminars about the subject are being presented all over the lower mainland at senior’s centres and libraries. At these seminars, seniors are learning there’s ‘gold’ in the walls that surround them and that travel, volunteering or embracing new interests are now within their grasp. But before you can strap on your travelling shoes or embrace a new lifestyle you must first downsize and this can be very intimidating. After 30,40 or, even 50 years in the same house, there’s sure to be a large accumulation of possessions. The first step is to picture your future lifestyle and make a plan. Have you always wanted to see the world? Maybe you’d like to do some missions work? Perhaps you’d simply like more social

Mary brought it across Canada with the idea that a granddaughter would treasure it. We have two grandsons and there’s no more on the way”, commented Roger. In your will, you have the opportunity to bequeath the family home as an inheritance. But what about some of the precious family heirlooms? Why not gift your children and grandchildren early? You may have already decided who will get a favorite painting or sculpture and maybe your son has always admired his granddad’s framed war medals. Why wait

ConƟnued from page 17 until the day your will is read? Do it early. Your family will have the enjoyment of your gifts and you will have it out of your house. “Try not to feel insulted, however if your family turns down your offer of what you consider to be the family treasures. Remember, each generation has their own unique taste and style,” said Kim. It could be that a lot of the stuff in your basement, attic or garage belongs to your children. After they’ve moved out or gotten married, a lot of their possessions were left behind. Make a deadline and be firm. Tell them, if they don’t pick up their stuff by the time they’ve agreed upon, their stuff will be going to Goodwill. If you’re going from 2,300 square feet to a thousand, much of your furniture will not fit in your new space. Keith is also a volunteer housing counsellor and he suggests, “Do your best to avoid putting your furniture and extra possessions in storage, You’ll be paying monthly rent and the truth of the matter is, out of sight; out of mind,” he said. Consider selling or consigning some of your furniture and possessions. Online sales sites such as Craig’s List or Kijiji, make it

easy to dispose of items as large as furniture or as small as knickknacks. There are some simple rules to keep yourself safe when selling online but if you are hesitant ask someone to help you. “Try to move larger items to a garage or entrance to your home,” advises Kim, “That way strangers are not wandering through your house. Smaller items can even be exchanged at a public location, for example at Tim Horton’s,” she added. Incorporate your grandchildren’s help. You could sweeten the pot by promising them a commission on everything they sell and what you don’t sell, you can give to your favorite charity. Another important thing to remember is to find the right Realtor who is someone you can are compatible with and who you can trust. Some realtors specialize in working with seniors. “Today’s forms and what has to be done prior to the sale of a property is complicated,” said Macdonald. Downsizing can be daunting, but it doesn’t have to be. Just remember to start early, keep your plan in place and if you need it, ask for help. The rewards of finding a place you love and enjoying your golden years are well worth the effort it takes to downsize.

Hearing aids provide a new lease on life May marks the 75th anniversary of BeƩer Hearing and Speech Month

KRI ST YL CL A R K

For anyone hard of hearing, the world can be a lonely and isolating place. In addition to feeling out of the loop amongst family and friends, untreated hearing loss can leave one feeling depressed and disconnected from their surroundings. For Edith Griese, having a set of hearing aids has given her a whole new lease on life. The 89-year-old Aldergrove resident had suffered for years from profound hearing loss in both ears, making it difficult to converse with loved ones. “I was so desperate to hear after so many years – especially when I sold my house and moved in with another lady who speaks very softly,” she said. “My son, who was always asking “can you hear me mom,” also en-

couraged me to book at appointment.” Last January, Griese finally decided to invest in her hearing health and overall well being visiting hearing specialist Kim Galick over at Ears Hearing Clinic in Langley. While it didn’t happen overnight – a year, to be exact– Griese is enjoying finally being in tune with friends and family. “At first, the lady I lived with thought something was wrong with my hearing aids, but it takes time to get used to them... it pays to be patient. I can now hear the birds singing, can go in the

garden and really enjoy myself. My hearing aids are worth every single penny.” At Ears Hearing Langley, Galick and her team provide exceptional hearing health care on a professional, yet personal basis to every patient who walks through the door. The Langley resident opened her business – a full-service audiology clinic that offers free adult hearing tests, as well as hearing aids and hearing protection – on the corner of Langley’s historic Salt Lane and 56 Ave. in April of 2013, and has since helped countless men and women

of all ages to alleviate their hearing woes. May marks the 75th anniversary of Better Hearing and Speech Month -- a time to raise public awareness, knowledge, and understanding of the various forms of communication impairments to include those of hearing, speech, language, and voice. Galick encourages anyone hesitating to have their hearing checked, to make an appointment right away. “In celebration of Better Hearing and Speech Month, why not take stock of your hearing and seek the help you need? You deserve to live life to the fullest at any age and we’re here to help.” For more information, visit www.earslangley.com or call 604427-2828.

Telling their stories POETRY AND ARTIFACTS OFFER A GLIMPSE INTO PERSONAL AND CULTURAL HISTORY BR EN D A AN D E R SO N Tim e s Re po r t e r

Joseph Dandurand quips that he writes poetry because it’s cheaper than therapy. The 50-year-old, single father of three has a serious presence, yet he’s friendly and welcoming as he sits behind his desk at the Kwantlen First Nation Cultural Centre on McMillan Island, chatting amicably. It is his collection of poems about urban Aboriginal life in Canada — with their themes of love, loss and longing, addiction and abuse, playing out in short, often haunting phrases — that lend credence to his claim. Even one offered in jest. It is this work that Dandurand will recite on Friday during a showcase at lelem’ Arts and Culture Café, where he will read from two books of original poetry. Copies of Hear and Foretell arrived so recently, that most of them are still stacked inside a cardboard box on the corner of his desk. The second book, I Want, is still at the printer’s on Vancouver Island. But he will perform selections from it as well, he said. Perform is the word he chooses to describe the way he tells his stories —laid out on the page in terse, blunt terms, seldom more than half a dozen words at a time. Usually fewer. They are the stories of a young man who was an alcoholic by

events are catered. The poet and playwright doesn’t see his work as a writer as being separate from his work at the cultural centre. “A lot of that ties into the being the manager of this space,” he said. “I tell people to come here with a good mind and a good heart, and to leave stresses and negativity outside.” Dandurand’s poetry reading will begin at 7 p.m. on Friday, May 22, inside the lelem’ Arts and Culture Café, Fort Langley, which is also owned and operated by the Kwantlen First Nation. The public is invited to stop by and listen and enjoy a coffee or a glass of wine. Lelem’ is located at #100-23285 Billy Brown Rd. in Fort Langley. For more information, contact Dandurand by email at tony@kwantlenfn.ca or by phone at 604761-2007.

BR E ND A A ND E R S ON Langley Time s

Joseph Dandurand, manager of the Kwantlen Cultural Centre on McMillan Island will perform selections from his two books of original poetry on Friday evening at lelem’ Arts and Culture Café in Fort Langley. the time he was legally allowed to drink. Who beat a drug addiction at 26. Who grew up with no roots, as a “military brat,” moving from base to base across Canada. Dandurand’s mother had grown up on the Kwantlen reservation, but left the community at 18 and married a soldier she met in Ontario. They were in New Brunswick by the time Dandurand was born. As a young adult, he returned to Ontario to study creative writing

and theatre at Algonquin College in Ottawa. It was here he discovered that he had a gift for turning words into pictures — not all of them pretty, but each one with a certain beauty that only the truth can convey. “I needed a place to belong,” he said of his decision to attend university. It wasn’t until he was 30 years old that he reconnected with his roots. As Dandurand describes it, he’d made a stop in Langley to fish

on his way to Mexico, “to drink beer on the beach and write bad poetry,” when chief Marilyn Gabriel offered him a job as steward of the Kwantlen nation’s cultural artifacts. He accepted and soon began reading, teaching himself everything he could about First Nations archaeology. Over the past two decades, the community has collected thousands of pieces — most found in the Stave Lake area, where Kwantlen lands were flooded for hydro power.

Drawers and cabinets are filled with stone cutting blades of different shapes and sizes. Most were carved by Kwantlen people, others — clearly from someplace else — show evidence of early trade among the regions. Today, they are kept in a repository in the community’s brand new Kwantlen Cultural Centre. As part of the heritage management plan related to the Stave Lake lands, B.C. Hy-

dro paid for the construction of the large cedar building, which is managed by Dandurand. In addition to the artifact repository, it holds a long house where ceremonies are held, including weddings, funerals and the annual winter celebration, as well as an industrial kitchen, from which

You & The Law

PRESENTS What can you do about “parental alienation?” Most of us have seen a friend or family member’s marriage go bust in a bitter divorce. Sometimes the couple’s children are victims in their parents’ ongoing conflict long after the break-up. One parent, often the primary caregiver, may influence the kids to take sides and subtly turn them against the other parent. Undermining the kids’ relationship with the other parent, even unintentionally, damages children’s emotional and psychological well-being and is contrary to the Family Law Act. This phenomenon is called “parental alienation” and may lead to children not wanting to see or have anything to do with that other parent. When a child’s previously close relationship with both parents turns sour with one parent without good reason, that’s a hallmark of parental alienation. Our B.C. Supreme Court recently had to deal with parental alienation. Colin and Claire (all names changed) had two kids, Mary and Becky, born in 2000 and 2002. The couple separated in 2008 and divorced three years later. Both parents were intelligent and capable individuals who loved their children, and they agreed to equal parenting arrangements. The court subsequently gave them joint custody and joint guardianship of the kids and ordered a three-day alternating parenting schedule, later changed by Colin and Claire to a five-day alternating schedule. These arrangements worked well initially, but over time the kids became increasingly reluctant to spend time with their dad. One example: in late 2011 when Claire dropped Becky off to see Colin, Becky ran back to her mom’s car, buckled herself in and refused to come out for half an hour despite her dad’s pleading. By 2013, when Colin was to pick the girls up from a church drop-off, or was to take them after school, he couldn’t because they ran away. They also refused to see him

during a court-ordered holiday access. When interviewed by a psychologist, both children expressed strong negative views of their father, but positive ones of their mother.

Colin thus asked the court for a “custody reversal order” and other orders to help resolve the problem. The court concluded the children were a product of parental alienation – their negative feelings and rejection of their dad was significantly out of line with their actual experience with him. Both Mary and Becky suffered from emotional and mental health problems – the older girl from depression and suicidal thoughts, her younger sister from an anxiety disorder and anger issues. The focus in such cases is on the best interests of the children long-term. The court intervened in an effort to undo the girls’ alienation from their dad, to foster their future relationship with both parents and to minimize emotional damage. Colin got sole guardianship, interim custody and primary residence of the two girls for the time being, and Claire was to have no direct or indirect access to them. Claire, Colin and the children also had to enroll in a family reunification program for a year (the program’s director would make regular progress reports to the court). Parental alienation situations are complex, and each case requires a unique solution. It’s important you act quickly and get legal and other help promptly if you’re caught up in such a conflict-ridden situation.

Langley FC Wolves’ goalkeeper Alyssa Smith snares the ball during first half action against the Tsawwassen Blues in the U17 girls B Coastal Cup final game at Aldergrove Athletic Park earlier this month (May 2). The Wolves were ahead 1-0 at the half but the Blues would turn up the pressure in the second half en route to a 4-2 win. Both teams also advanced to the provincial Cup finals, which will be held in July.

Honours for UBC’s Hyun

Langley’s Winnie Hyun was named a second team National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) golf all-American. Hyun, a sophomore with the UBC women’s golf team, is a Walnut Grove Secondary graduate. She was a 2014 NAIA golf all-American last season.

Langley defeated the Tri City Titans 02 16-0 in game one as Piper French and Jacqueline Hudson teamed up for a no-hitter. French also got things done with her bat, finishing with a home run and 5 RBIs while Kaitlyn Cowie tripled to score two runs. Against the Maple Ridge Rage 02 in the next game, Kayla Michael and Sam Cox scored two runs each in the 12-3 win. Langley next faced the Rage 01 with Jayna Hagen preserving a 7-6 win with a diving catch in centre-field. The offence came to life in game four as they scored seven runs in the firs three innings to win 13-3 over the PoCo Ravens 02 to claim top spot in their pool. And in the semifinals, the Xtreme struck early and often, defeating the Richmond Islanders 01/02 12-2. Jenkins paced the offence with a three-run home run while Nadia Hudson also had an RBI and a run scored.
