The first time, she was in a wheelchair. This time, she walked. Sunday’s MS Walk at Douglas Park was the 11th for Langley resident Pamela Weitzel (centre in sleeveless top), who has MS and was accompanied by “Team Pamela” of friends and family.
Kim Snow of Kimz Angels pulled her truck into the back parking lot of St. Joseph’s Roman Catholic Church for the last time on Tuesday. Snow had her “Kimz Angels” truck bed full to the brim with non-perishable food like cereals, granola bars and soups to deliver to those in need, who won’t have the soup kitchen to go to anymore. Tuesday was the final day for the St. Joe’s soup kitchen after 15 years of serving up soup and
compassion to Langley’s most vulnerable citizens. “But it isn’t goodbye, it’s hello to a fresh start,” said Snow. A new priest is taking over from Father Don Larson in June and Snow is determined to work with him to get the soup kitchen reinstated. Larson announced three weeks ago that the soup kitchen would close while the church looks at restructuring its outreach programs to those in need. Continued Page 4
Murray Green residents returning home MOST UNITS RESTORED FOLLOWING MAY 17 FIRE AT NEIGHBOURING CONSTRUCTION SITE M O N I Q U E TA M M I N G A Times Re po r t e r
Most residents affected by the massive fire that melted the east wall of the Murray Green complex on May 17 are now getting back to their homes, said Langley Emergency Program co-ordinator Ginger Sherlock. There were between eight to 12 units impacted by the fire in Murrayville, she estimates. The restoration company has the exact number, she said. One or two units have severe damage.
But the restoration company has managed to fix the other units and have them ready for re-occupancy, she believes. The Langley Emergency Program opened the reception centre at the WC Blair Pool the night of the fire, when 150 people were evacuated from their homes around 4 a.m. The neighbouring apartment complex under construction went up like match sticks, causing the fire to spread to one wall of the Murray Green condo complex. As Township firefighters tried to contain the fire, police officers were having to kick

Quickly, the Langley community sprang into action wanting to help. London Drugs Langley had several of their employees live in Murray Green so they were taking donations at the till.

But then she learned no furniture donations were needed at this time. Most of the fire victims had contents insurance, Sherlock believes. The blaze is still considered suspicious, but Langley RCMP have nothing new to update the public with. Sherlock said the fire is a good reminder for people to always leave when the fire alarm goes off. But before you leave, take your pets, medication, wallet, phone and phone charger with you.

Battle over Langley seniors centre draws crowd ATMOSPHERE SAID TO BE TENSE, BOARD SURVIVES VOTE OF CONFIDENCE D AN F ERGUSO N Ti me s Re po r t e r
The Langley Seniors Recreation and Resources Centre will continue to be run by the current board of directors, following an extraordinary general meeting on Tuesday that voted to keep them on the job. On a show of hands, voting members defeated a resolution that would have removed the entire board of directors. The margin was three to one against. Several hundred people attended the meeting, overflowing the main hall into the foyer. Many were members of the centre, not the society, and did not have voting rights. Both sides in the battle agreed the centre has become a stressful and unpleasant place for many members, staff and volunteers. Words like “bullying and harassment,” “dysfunctional,” and “toxic” were used to describe the situation at the centre during a Tuesday afternoon emergency meeting of the Langley Senior Resources Society, the non-profit group that operates the facility at 20605 51B Ave. Each side complained the other was unfairly using membership lists to lobby for support. At issue is the way some staff and members have been treated recently, with the pro-board and anti-board factions each ac-

cusing the other of bad behaviour. Several centre employees have either quit or gone on medical leave since the board appointed new management with a mandate to cut costs, including food expenses for the centre cafe and what was described as “excessive” overtime by employees. Sharon Birnie, one of the founders of the centre, has asked that her name be removed from the centre’s main meeting hall. During the meeting, board chair Shauna Sailer said the board was “saddened” by Birnie’s request, and hoped she will change her mind.

derstand the society has a deficit of $95,000 that must be addressed. “The society is expected to operate within its means,” Sailer said. The former executive director of the centre, Barb Stack, was cheered by some when she spoke at the meeting and told the board the centre has routinely run deficits in the past. Stack said the board is to blame for the current problems, because it picked the wrong people to run the centre. Another speaker, Joyce King, said opponents of the changes are trying to save the centre, not destroy it. King said staff at the centre are being mistreated under the new regime. Other speakers who supported the board said it was time to end the paralysis caused by the controversy and to move on. “I see no reason for this meeting,” Bob Fulford said.
Car thief drives through glass shop garage bay door STOLEN CAR RECOVERED ACROSS RIVER MO N I Q U E TA M M I N G A Ti m e s Re po r t e r
Shawn McMahon is used to fixing broken glass, but when a thief drove through his Broco Auto Glass garage bay door, there was not much he could do. “When I got here my garage door was in the middle of the driveway and a Cadillac Escalade I had parked in the shop was gone,” said McMahon about the May 20 break-in. A thief had broken into the front door and stolen the Cadillac, making off with the vehicle by driving through the garage door. “Why the thief had to drive through the door instead of just opening it?” he asks. McMahon has owned the glass shop in
the 19900 block of Fraser Highway for 13 years, and nothing like this has happened before. “Because of the time of night I had to stay at the shop all night,” he said. Langley RCMP responded quickly and sent Air One to track the vehicle down, but the Escalade wasn’t located that night. Ridge Meadows RCMP spotted it a couple of days later and recovered the vehicle. A spokesperson for the Ridge Meadows RCMP didn’t know if any arrests were made or if charges were being recommended. If you know anything about this break-in or the Cadillac, call Langley RCMP at 604532-3200 or if you wish to remain anonymous call Crimestoppers at 1-800-222TIPS.

Plan to get it in gear and turn out to Langley Township firehall #5 in Brookswood on June 6, as firefighters celebrate the hall’s 60th anniversary with an open house. The family-friendly event will include booths and displays by a wide range of emergency services, including RCMP, BC Ambulance, Langley Crimewatch, Fraser Valley Search and Rescue, ICBC, Township of Langley Public Education, the TLFD Charitable Society and Langley City Fire and Rescue, said hall president Matt Gillam. Each agency will have representatives available to answer visitors’ questions. There will also be antique firetrucks and other memorabilia on display. Activities and demonstrations will include a mini-hose coupling competition, going on every hour, as well as an auto-extrication demonstration, where firefighters will use the Jaws-ofLife to simulate the rescue of a person trapped in a car. There will be free coffee and donuts while they last. Hamburgers and hot dogs will be offered for a nominal fee.

This has caused much annoyance to the neighbours, the City and also at times the priests who live on the property.”
Closing the soup kitchen isn’t going to make the issue go away, remarks Snow. Kimz Angels has been bringing food, appliances, furniture, walkers and clothing and fulfilling needs of those who come to the weekly soup kitchen for years. She has even helped house a few who have gotten to know her through the soup kitchen. She’s well-known by

everyone there. “We can’t keep pushing them from one place to the next. We have to find real solutions,” she said. The solution is housing, Snow believes. But many of the people who use the soup kitchen aren’t necessarily living on the street. “These beautiful people are not homeless, they are proud people that live from paycheque to paycheque,” she said. “They come here to connect with friends and pass the time. They can’t afford to hang out at fancy restaurants. They aren’t asking for much. Just a place to go to have a meal and a cup of coffee.” On Tuesday, there was a large crowd for the final lunch. It was made up of seniors, numerous people in wheelchairs and walkers, disabled and those with mental disabilities and mental health issues. Food packages were given to each person who attended, consisting of bottled water, soup, fruit cups, fruit juice, Kraft dinner and more.

Grade 4/5 students from Simonds Elementary greet Jaskarn Dhillon (front) and Sukhmeet Singh Sachal on Friday morning as the Cycling4Diversity group stopped by the Langley elementary school. Cycling4Diversity began in 2011 and aims to inform people about embracing cultural diversity through understanding, mutual respect and inclusion. The C4D Foundation offers opportunities for learning and discussions on the benefits of cultural diversity and the importance of eliminating racism.
Before children are old enough to enter Kindergarten, they are being offered education and support paid for by the Langley School District. It’s in programs like Strong Start, which is a play-based free daily program that offers a nutritious snack, story time, crafts and free play for caregivers and their children age 0 to six. Nine schools in the district offer Strong Start. Strong Start, Family Place and programs like this allow parents a place to go for activities, support and resources. Often the instructor at Strong Start gets to know the children and can field questions of concerns and offer resources to parents who may have questions about their children’s health or behaviour. “Our family used a resource like this and sometimes if you have this kind of constant support it can make a huge difference,” said trustee Rosemary Wallace at Tuesday’s meeting. “It’s cliche, but it can take a village to raise a child. Willoughby really seems like a neighbourhood that needs this.” Wallace was referencing the new Willoughby Early Years Centre that
opened up in Willoughby Elementary, offering a number of programs and services all under one roof. “This kind of programming prepares future students to be school ready,” said Trustee Shelley Coburn. “It also promotes neighbourhood schools.” Trustee David Tod believes that early learning services is vital. “Prevention is really important and if we can support children early, it can go a long way,” he said. Trustee Rod Ross wondered if the District should be taking on early learning as well as K-12 and adult education. Superintendent Suzanne Hoffman said the leadership team is tasked with as much as they can handle and they are of the belief that early learning is a benefit. To that end, the Willoughby Early Years Centre is hosting C.H.I.L.D. (Children’s Health, Information, Learning and Development) Day today (Friday) from 9 a.m. from 3:30 p.m. to 7 p.m. With free activities, bouncy castle, face painting, food trucks and more. There will also be free consultation on your child’s behaviour and development. Willoughby Elementary is at 20766 80 Ave.

Brookswood plan developer gets refund DAN FERGUSON Times Reporter
The company that funded a failed neighborhood development plan for Brookswood is getting a partial refund. Township council has approved returning $60,757 to the Griffith Neighbourhood Advisory Corporation, the developers who paid for municipal planning work on an updated Brookswood/Fernridge Community plan. The plan, which proposed to increase allowable housing den-
sity in the semi-rural area, was rejected last year after a lengthy public hearing that ran several days and was dominated by opponents. The refund was the idea of Councillor Angie Quaale, who said the developers should get back leftover money that went unused because the plan was defeated. Councillor Bob Long objected, warning it would mean the Township may have to give refunds to other developers who have funded
neighbourhood plans. “Did they [Griffith Neighbourhood Advisory Corporation] ask for it?�Long said. Quaale responded that it was like spending money in a store. “I don’t ask for my change back when I go to make a purchase,� Quaale said. “It’s just returned to me.� The refund was approved at the Monday, April 27 evening meeting of council, with the mayor and every councillor except Long voting in favour.

Cam Penner, Doug Penner and Vancouver Island firefighter Kerry Zado. Zado has already held one Ride For Doug in the Victoria area, and is holding a second ride this August. The ninth annual Ride For Doug in Langley is set for June 7.
Ride has raised $130K MO N I Q U E TA M M I N G A Ti m e s Re po r t e r
It was nine years ago when Cam Penner made the decision he needed to do something to make a difference in his young son Doug’s life. Doug was three at the time and had been diagnosed with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. Muscular Dystrophy is a genetic disorder that causes muscles in the body to gradually decline and weaken. Over time, people with muscular dystrophy may lose the ability to walk, speak and ultimately breathe. For many the disorder is fatal. There is presently no known cure, or even effective treatments. The road ahead for the kids is hard, said Penner. That is when “Ride For Doug” was born. It’s a charity motorcycle ride through picturesque Fraser Valley aimed at raising money and awareness for Muscular Dystrophy. This year, the ninth annual ride is set for June 7. Now Doug is 12 and the Ride has raised $130,000 in eight years. “With a record setting turnout last year of 113 riders, and over 350 people at the barbecue, we raised more than $30,000 for the Vancouver chapter of Muscular Dystrophy Canada,” said Cam Penner. Cam said as Doug gets older he looks forward to the ride more and more and has made friends along the way. The Grade 7 Langley Christian student is doing well and ‘enjoying life,’ said Dad. “He is getting weaker, but he is still walking, able to go up and down stairs, and ride with me on my motorcycle. He is in the transition years of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. These are the years where most of his peers are using wheelchairs.” Ride For Doug provides motorcyclists in Langley, throughout the Lower Mainland the opportunity to get together, go on a ride, and raise some money. “The thing that amazes me each year — even after eight of them — is the powerful emotional lift that having all those bikes riding with you and your family in support of the cause,” said Penner. “That’s the kind of emotional lift that we need to draw down on during the tough times. Knowing that there’s that many people in your corner really helps on those days where you are sitting at the hospital, and having to make some really tough decisions.” Muscular Dystrophy Canada uses some of the money raised to provide support and equipment assistance to families living with MD. Other funds are used for research in the quest for a cure. Several research projects are showing great promise, and funding has never been more critical. This year’s ride takes place Sunday, June 7. Registration from noon to 12:45 p.m., and a 1 p.m. departure time. Riders will return by 5 p.m. for a barbecue. The ride will start and end in the parking lot of the South Langley Church (20098 22nd Ave.) Registration for the ride will be $20 – but this fee is waived if you arrive with $50 or more in donations.

The BC Liberal government is in the process of adopting the Election Amendment Act, which will give candidates and political parties the ability to access hitherto private data about voters from past provincial elections. The NDP, unfortunately, has gone along with the basic thrust of this law. The most principled opposition has come from Green Party MLA Andrew Weaver, and independent Vicki Huntington has also been challenging the law. The main purpose behind the law is to allow well-funded political parties, notably the BC Liberals and NDP, to “mine” voter data and craft campaigns to encourage their own supporters to come to the polls, while at the same time (and likely quite secretly) coming up with ways of targeting specific supporters of the other parties from casting votes. Along the way, they will be digging into voters’ privacy in a way that has caused the Information and Privacy Commissioner great concerns. It is unfortunate that there has been so little attention paid to this. As Huntington noted in a press release, after an amendment to the bill was defeated, “People don’t want to be targeted or harassed based on whether or not they voted. This bill won’t encourage voter participation. It will reinforce voter cynicism.” The amendment, introduced by Weaver, called for a delay in implementing the law until there was more public consultation. While the NDP supported the amendment, the BC Liberal majority voted against it. B.C. is, in some ways, the wild west of politics. There are no restrictions on donations from businesses, associations, wealthy individuals or unions to political campaigns. While there are limits on spending during campaigns, the most crucial and strategic spending is often done before the campaign is underway. While there is now full disclosure of those who donate to political parties, the amounts raised by the BC Liberals and the NDP are considerably more than is truly needed to properly run a campaign. The BC Liberals alone raised more than $10 million last year. Now the political parties are being handed another tool that, in a day and age when it is easier than ever to collect a raft of data about individuals, will allow them to hone their message and specifically target individuals. Citizens should always be suspicious when governments bring in new laws that are not even on the radar screen for ordinary people. This law is designed solely to help those who are already hip-deep in politics. There was no public outcry calling for political parties to be given more information about voters. This law is an invasion of privacy and will only lead to political manipulation, all in the name of winning an election.
Staying independent they
As we age, our ability to live independently is gradually stripped from us. But a new report from the B.C. Seniors’ Advocate suggests that is happening faster than it needs to. According to Seniors Advocate Isobel Mackenzie, many seniors are being moved into residential care facilities before they need that level of care thanks to what she calls outdated and restrictive regulations. Many seniors could instead be accommodated in assisted living programs and facilities, retaining more of their independence later in life. Independent, active seniors are a big part of the community in Chilliwack where they make up a significant portion of the population and are still contributing members of the community and economy through countless hours of volunteer effort. Helping them maintain that independence should be the goal, rather than encouraging them into residential care. Mackenzie’s report calls for a “fundamental redesign” of regulations for registered assisted living, to change spousal eligibility and reduce the number of higher functioning seniors moving to residential care. It’s time the government recognized that becoming a senior doesn’t mean you are no longer a vital part of society and helped seniors in their quest to remain independent. — Chilliwack Times

Beware of buttercups Editor: I have seen vast areas of yellow buttercups in fields and on roadsides everywhere. I am very concerned because animals, especially horses, ponies and donkeys, eat them if they are covering the grass. They can be seriously poisoned. Normally, the animals avoid them, but as with other toxic weeds, they may be grazed if other feed becomes scarce, with serious consequences. Buttercups are found worldwide, especially in marshy fields and pastures. They have easily recognizable yellow, five-petaled flowers and deeply divided stem leaves. Symptoms of buttercup poisoning include salivation, depression, blindness, bloodstained urine, diarrhea, nervousness and abdominal pain.
The acrid juice from the plant may also cause ulceration of the animal’s skin or lips. All buttercups should be removed from the horse’s diet and supportive care should be provided. Other plants considered dangerous are hemlock, nightshade, hoary alyssum, St. John’s wort and milkweed. They should be thoroughly removed. Check pastures regularly and make sure your horses are offered nutritionally balanced diet with lots of healthy forage to keep them occupied. For more information about plants that are poisonous to livestock, go to www.weedscanada.ca. JOY RICHARDSON, WHITE ROCK
Plants stolen from centre
Editor: I am a senior, member and volunteer at the Langley Seniors Recreation and Resource Centre. I’ve been involved for about 13 years. I am a member of a small group of volunteer gardeners at the centre, and we take pride in our gardening endeavours. I was so upset and amazed that someone has stolen the beautiful carnations we had planted on the roundabout less than two
weeks ago. Did they steal them for their own garden? We “senior gardeners” take pride in our gardens at the Seniors’ Centre, and I feel so sad, as I remember all our hard work. We will replace these flowers with others, but hopefully they will survive and stay in place. DOROTHY MCDERMID, LANGLEY
Put money where mouths are Editor: The article on road pricing and tolls (The Times, May 20) spurred me and my partner on. It’s more conceptual thinking of ways to get money out of the pockets of people who own cars. Anyone living South of the Fraser River will find it difficult to move around without a vehicle and yet again, mayors are devising ways to get money out of people who own cars. I have a question for these mayors — do they all own cars and drive them daily? Shame on them if they say yes, and do and not use the public transit that is provided. It is galling that they talk about implementing sales taxes, road taxes, gas taxes and other schemes for grabbing money from the taxpayers’ wallet. They do not walk the talk. Please don’t tell me that they need to get to-and-fro quickly in order to meet their constituency needs. That’s just rubbish. They don’t want to take public transit any more than the next guy — they just need to come up with a way to reap more money from the general public to pay for a system that has
been broken for a very long time. Here are some suggestions for mayors: 1. Give half your pay to TransLink. Stand behind what you say about public transit and support it, instead of paying lip service to it. Do what you are hired to do and represent the public, instead of looking after yourselves. 2. Agree to reduce your benefits or eliminate them in order to pay for public transit. 3. Get rid of TransLink — most people in the Lower Mainland would vote ‘yes’ on that one. We lost the faith a long time ago, and if you put it to a referendum, most would not disagree with this notion. 4. Gas taxes — we all know they are dumped into general revenue where all politicians feed. Put it to proper use on roads and bridges. We have seen no accountability from TransLink, and mayors are passing the buck. Mayors must represent the people and their best interests first. SANDRA STEFFAN, LANGLEY
C o ntribu te d pho to
Langley RCMP Const. Joel Shoihet recently took time to pull over his police vehicle to sit and talk to a group of young children on the way back to their daycare in Murrayville. Listening intently are Calia Watt, Makenna Smith, Maelle Sytko and Tyler Watson.
Circle time on sidewalk Editor: I run a licenced daycare in Murrayville — Gigglez & Grinz Daycare. My kiddos and I were walking home from our morning school drop-off and we saw a police car coming. The kids get so excited when they see our local heroes, and even more excited when they can get a wave out of them. Well, this officer went above and beyond. Not only did he wave to the children, he pulled over, got out of his police car to say hi and sat on the road to
chat with them. He made them all feel so special. The world needs more kind-hearted people like this. People who go out of their way to make our children feel special and safe are so valuable. This will be a forever memory for these kids, and something I’m sure they will brag about forever. It was the day they had circle time on the sidewalk with a hero. AMBER WATT, LANGLEY
Shoplifters do resist arrest Editor: After reading the article “Man Beaten over stolen jeans,” (The Times, May 22) I thought there must be two sides to this story. It appears that the alleged thief is turning out to be the victim and the security officer is the bad guy. Having had dealings with this type of situation in my law enforcement days, I have found that a shoplifter can be very resistant to arrest and many carry knives or other items, in order to resist.
Looking at the photo of this so-called homeless person with your article, he seems to have a very muscular arm. I just wanted to ask people to hold back a little on their criticism for a while. I don’t know either person involved and am not familiar with Value Village’s attitude towards this sort of thing, but stealing is stealing and theft is theft. DON WEBER, LANGLEY

ARE YOU SUFFERING FROM FOOT PAIN? NEW AND EFFECTIVE TREATMENTS AVAILABLE FOR PLANTAR FASCITIS AND CHRONIC HEEL PAIN!
What are shockwaves? Shock waves are high-energy acoustic (sound) waves that are used to penetrate the skin to treat an injured area in the body. There is a high release of energy at the soft tissue/bone interface. The release of energy from the shock waves within the region of the affected tissues and the resultant compression and tension of cells creates a positive physiological effect. Mechano - transduction is the physiological effect thought to be responsible for stimulating normal and injured cells to produce healing factors.
How does it work? ShockWave Therapy involves using a hand-held probe to focus shock waves on the affected tissue and surrounding healthy tissue to induce physiological response that will initiate healing. it is important to accurately define the treatment area through appropriate diagnostics. We do that through taking in the patient’s concise pain history, palpation, x-rays, ultrasound, MRI etc. This ensures the most effective delivery of shock waves into the affected region. When applied to the skin, it allows an increased blood supply to the treated area by stimulation of neovascularization and growth Factors. Other benefits of ShockWave Therapy include: • Facilitates resorption of calcifications in tendons and ligaments • Re-initiates stagnant healing processes in chronic injuries • Stimulates migration (differentiation) of stem cells • Decreases inflammatory processes • Stimulates osteoclasts and fibroblasts to rebuild injured tissues
Evidence based success rates More than 80% of patients report improvement after the first treatment of the program. Most studies report a full healing rate of 65-85% after completion of the treatment program.

Township ponders rural garbage pickup RESIDENTS BEING SURV EYED D AN FERGU SO N Ti m e s Re po r t e r
Langley Township is considering expanding garbage pickup to include 5,000 rural homes that currently must transport their own trash to waste transfer stations. As part of a general review of solid waste management, Township staff is conducting a mail-out survey of rural property owners to determine the degree of interest in “the expansion of municipal curbside garbage and organics collection to rural properties,” a memo to council from the engineering division states. The survey, of owners of single-family detached homes in the Township who do not currently receive municipal garbage and Green Can service, can also be filled out online at speakup.tol.ca (the property number from the mailed-out form is required). Homeowners who complete the survey by June 12 have a chance of winning a three-month “Go Active” family pass to the Township’s recreation facilities, with a $300 value. The Township also plans two public information sessions, the first on Tuesday, June 2 from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. at the Aldergrove Athletic Park
Field House at 29 Avenue and 267B Street, the second on Thursday, June 4 from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. at the George Preston Recreation Centre at 20699 42 Ave. The current fee for municipal residential curbside garbage and organics collection is $24.39 a month, while it now costs a minimum of $15 to truck a small residential garbage load to the Aldergrove facility. That’s because Metro Vancouver added a $5 transaction fee to all residential garbage loads in April. Metro also charges a higher minimum fee for small loads during peak times at the Surrey, Coquitlam, and North Shore transfer stations of $25. The regional authority has also banned organics, including food scraps and yard trimmings, from the transfer stations and landfills. As part of the Township solid waste review, staff have also been field-testing every-other-week garbage pickup and cart-based automated garbage and organics collection at 268 properties in urban and suburban areas. A staff report to council with recommendations is expected in early summer.
Author speaks at fundraiser Three federal Liberal riding associations are bringing author Michael Harris to town on Sunday. Harris is the author of the book “The Party of One,” which examines the level of control Prime Minister Stephen Harper exerts on his government and party. Author Farley Mowat, quoted in the book, stated that “Ste-
phen Harper is probably the most dangerous human being ever elevated to power in Canada.” The riding associations from Cloverdale-Langley City, South Surrey-White Rock and Coquitlam-Port Coquitlam are sponsoring the event, which includes a brunch. Tickets are $100 each. The event is a fundraiser for the
upcoming Liberal campaigns in those three ridings. Brunch begins at 10:30 a.m. with Harris speaking at 12 p.m. The event takes place at he Pacific Inn, located at 1160 King George Boulevard in South Surrey. Tckets can be purchased through Events.liberal.ca, or call Ginny Hasselfield at 604813-6409.

Court could overrule objections From Page 14
Pacific Northwest CEO Michael Culbert notes that answers to questions posed by the Lax Kw’alaams First Nation were submitted to federal regulators only days before they started voting on a $1 billion share of LNG proceeds over 40 years. The vote was a resounding no, despite a redesign that put pipelines on a suspension bridge over the most sensitive salmon habitat. Culbert suggests that given
some time to examine environmental mitigation work, that answer may change. Does aboriginal title offer a veto over projects like this? According to the recent Supreme Court of Canada decision on the Tsilhqot’in case, the short answer is no. Objections could be overridden if governments determine a project is in the interest of the greater public. Talks have taken place with 19 First Nations affected by pipelines and facilities, and 14 have

agreed. While they continue with Lax Kw’alaams and other Tsimshian Nations on the coast, it’s worth recalling that others are not so reluctant. The Nisga’a Nation has identified four sites as suitable for LNG terminals with a shorter pipeline route to the coast than Prince Rupert.

Committee aims to build communication
From Page 1
The decision to approve the refund came less than a month after an attempt at restarting the stalled Brookswood community plan process was rejected by council. Councillor Charlie Fox wanted to get going on a new plan, but couldn’t win enough support. Councillor Michelle Sparrow said it made little sense to revisit the Brookswood issue when a spe-
cial committee of council has begun working on ways to avoid another Brookswood battle. The newly-created Mayor’s Standing Committee on Public Engagement hopes to overhaul communication with residents in the wake of the bitter dispute over the Brookswood/Fernridge plan. Most members of council, with the exception of Long and Kim Richter, voted to postpone discussing a new Brookswood plan until after the committee has finished its work.

Funding help for poultry industry A pair of initiatives worth up to $1.58 million will be used to help the poultry industry recover from the impact of the avian influenza. The money will be used to help poultry producers in the province re-establish their operations and mitigate the impact of future risks following the avian flu outbreak in the Fraser Valley this past winter. Langley MP Mark Warawa announced
goodbye ordinary
the funding earlier this month (May 8) in Abbotsford. “These initiatives will help B.C. poultry producers deal with added costs of resuming business operations, while helping the poultry sector develop insurance options against future outbreaks,” he said. “By helping B.C’s impacted poultry farmers recover the cleaning and disinfection expensed they incurred in helping to limit the vi-
ruses spread, we’re encouraging B.C.’s farmers to continue their hard work in providing local, high quality foods,” added B.C. Agriculture Minister Norm Letnick. The initiative will also reimburse 90 percent of cleaning and disinfection costs incurred by the two small flock premises identified during the response. This initiative complements AgriStability, which is available to provide support for
income declines, including severe declines resulting from disease outbreaks. In addition, the BC Poultry Association will receive up to $325,025 in federal funding under the AgriRisk Initiatives Research and Development stream to help the industry implement an insurance product that will cover poultry producers for costs associated with any future notifiable avian influenza outbreak.

Family grateful for Jumpstart support Ten years of helping kids
PROGRAM HELPS KIDS GET INVOLVED IN ORGANIZED SPORTS GARY AH U J A Ti m e s Spo r t s
Chelsea Borrowdale is a national champion in the steeplechase and one of the most accomplished swimmers for her age group in the province. But were it not for the Canadian Tire Jumpstart program, she may never have made it this far. Michelle Borrowdale was a single mother of two young kids, ages four and six, and new to Langley. The family was involved with Big Brothers Big Sisters Langley and it was through that organization they learned about the Jumpstart program (see sidebar). After getting approved, the money was used to pay for soccer and baseball for Connor while Chelsea joined the Langley Olympians Swim Club. Chelsea had plenty of success and promise in the pool. “Sports start out cheap if you are just in the having fun category,” Michelle explained. “Of course the better you get, the more meets you go to and once you get better, you go to meets that aren’t in your province and you start travelling. Not cheap.” Both kids were benefactors of the Jumpstart program up until last year, after beginning at ages four and six, respectively. Chelsea turns 16 at the end of June and Connor is 18 and set to graduate high school next month. Both teenagers are grateful for the support of the Jumpstart program. “Plain and simple, it just gave me an opportunity to play a sport that I loved,” said Connor, who is now a golfer and hoping to play the sport at the university level next year. “I was and still am super grateful for the opportunity from the money we got. “Without this money, I think it would have been a lot more difficult to enjoy the sport, having to

old racing suits. It is part of the reason she joined the humanitarian club at Walnut Grove Secondary. “I feel more connected to the community and motivated to help out and volunteer,” she said. “The community has helped me and my family so much I wanted to give back.” Michelle, who works as a special education assistant in the Langley School District, sings the praises of the Jumpstart program. “It is a great way to get your kids involved in sport if you can’t afford the fees. It gives you an idea of the things they might like and it gives you those opportunities,” she said. “I don’t think we would have done swimming if I didn’t have the help from Jumpstart.”
May 30 is national Jumpstart Day and the Langley Canadian Tire location will celebrate by hosting a barbecue. The public is invited to drop by for hot dogs, drinks and balloon art between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. Through the month of June, customers at Canadian Tire can donate $2 and will receive a red ball or puck. Jumpstart was launched in 2005 with a vision to help kids jump over financial barriers and take a kick at playing a sport and getting active. Last year, 700 kids in the Langley area were helped by the Jumpstart program, and since it began in 2005, 3,624 local kids have benefited from the program, and across Canada, 944,710 children have been beneficiaries of the program. The program is for children between the ages of 4 and 18 and the money is used to assist with the costs associated with registration, equipment and/or transportation. To apply for funding, visit www.jumpstart. canadiantire.ca. Applications can typically be submitted from Jan. 15 to Nov. 1.

McPhee takes opponent to school Xtreme cool Heat in finals TEACHER BY DAY, BOXER BY NIGHT, MCPHEE WINS WESTERN CANADIAN BANTAMWEIGHT BELT
Show and tell will be extra special for Langley’s Alisah McPhee. The Abbotsford middle school teacher won by unanimous decision over Peggy Maerz on Saturday (May 23) night at the Rumble at the Rink boxing card in Nanaimo. The victory earned McPhee the Canadian Professional Boxing Council’s Western Canadian bantamweight belt. “My students are going to be excited to see this for show and tell,” she said to the ring announcer following the bout. The fight went the full eight rounds with both combatants connecting repeatedly. McPhee — who fights out of the City Boxing Club in Langley — said she tried to keep her chin down, stay compact and keep moving laterally. “I didn’t want to get into a brawl,” she said. “I didn’t want to stay in tight; I knew that’s where danger happens for me. “I wanted to make sure that I could keep my range and do what was working for me because it was frustrating her.” The 34-year-old McPhee improved to 4-1-1 in her career, which began in 2012. She said the win feels really good because it was a fight she knew would be difficult, and was. “That’s what this sport is
It was the perfect combination of offence and defence as the Langley Xtreme 99 returned home champions. The U16 bantam girls softball team was competing at Richmond’s London Park, where they avenged an earlier loss by cooling the Kelowna Heat 16-7 in Sunday’s champion-
ship final. The Heat had beat the Xtreme 7-4 the day before. In the rematch, the teams traded runs for the first two innings and were tied at five runs apiece. But the third inning was all Langley as they scored nine runs to put the game out of reach.

It was also her second straight fight against Maerz, with the last one ending in a split decision for McPhee. “I knew she was going to come in and she was going to come hard; she’s a tough opponent,” McPhee said. She said the plan early was to
go in, make contact and then wait for her opponent to make a mistake and then take advantage of the opportunity. McPhee anticipates her next fight will be sometime this summer but probably won’t be a title defence as she is working on getting a fight lined up in New York. — with files from Greg Sakaki/Black Press

Thunder aim to remove sour taste of 2014 GARY AH U J A Ti m e s Spo r t s
Last year left a sour taste in the mouths of the Langley Thunder. Prior to 2014, the senior A lacrosse team enjoyed a successful three-year run which saw them win a pair of Western Lacrosse Association championships in 2011 and 2012 before losing in the
2013 championship series. But the team struggled to a 7-11 record in 2014, which placed them sixth out of the seven WLA teams and on the outside looking in when the post-season began. “The guys who played for us last year are sour, especially the guys who have been
around a while,” said Thunder general manager Rob Buchan. “Last year was painful really. And we are hoping to change that this year.” The Thunder began their 2015 season on Wednesday night at the Langley Events Centre with a 6-5 loss to the New Westminster Salmonbellies.

Pat Saunders — who returned to the team after three years of playing back east — led Langley with a goal and four points. “We had a good run the last three years (but) last year we had a lot of turnover,” Buchan said about guys taking the year off or choosing to play back east. “We got hit very hard and had to quickly try and replace those guys (we lost) and some of those guys, you can’t replace. We did what we could.” Following an 0-3 start to the season, the Thunder won six of their next eight games. But the team dropped six straight to fall out of playoff contention before winning their season finale. In five of their 11 losses, the team was held to four goals or less and they finished with just 7.67 goals per game (fifth in the league). Defensively, they were sixth out of the seven teams, surrendering 9.06 goals per contest. A dozen players from last year’s team are back, including the team’s three leading scorers: Alex Turner (34 goals, 70 points), Athan Iannucci (25 goals, 58 points) and Tyler Melnyk (21 goals, 34 points). The offence should get a boost with the return of a pair of veterans and the addition of a rookie. Lewis Ratcliff returns to Langley after two years away and was tied for the team lead with 57 points in 2012, including 26 goals. And the rookie addition is Anthony Mal-

Langley Thunder’s Brendan Mykle-Winkler fires a shot on New Westminster goaltender Eric Penney during the Thunder’s WLA season opener at the Langley Events Centre on May 27. The visiting Salmonbellies won 6-5. com, the third overall pick in February’s WLA draft. He opened the scoring for Langley in the season opener. In his past two seasons of junior A, Malcolm had 177 points in 48 B.C. Junior A Lacrosse League games, as well as another 29 goals and 71 points in 19 playoff games for the Junior Salmonbellies. Another draft pick who cracked the Thunder roster is local Langley product Brendan Mykle-Winkler. He had 23 goals and 53 points last season for the Junior Thunder. Captain Matt Leveque is back on defence but the Thunder will be without a trio of defenders for the start of the season as Brett Mydske, John Lintz and Nik Bilic are playing in the National Lacrosse League’s Champion’s Cup final with the Edmonton Rush. Melnyk is also a member of the Rush. Lintz and Bilic last played for Langley in 2011 and 2013, respectively.
Mydske was the WLA’s top defender in both 2012 and 2013. Jakob Doucet — who was taken in the second round, 10th overall of the draft — has also cracked the Thunder line-up and will help the team shore up its defensive zone play. And in goal, Brodie MacDonald — the WLA’s top goaltender in 2013 — will carry the load with rookie David Mather (fifth round) backing him up. “We want to have a certain style of players where they are not afraid to go to the net, get to the dirty areas, go the corners and fight for loose balls and stuff like that,” Buchan said. “We didn’t have the season we wanted last year but with the lineup we had, we did some good things,” said Thunder coach Rod Jensen. “This year, we bolstered our lineup and we want to get back on top again. “We’ve got a mixture of some really young kids and some great
veterans (and) we’re going to provide a good product on the floor. “Hopefully we can get back to where we were when we were playing for the Mann Cup.” The Thunder are back in action tomorrow (Saturday) as they visit the Coquitlam Adanacs. They also visit the Burnaby Lakers on Tuesday before hosting Coquitlam on Wednesday at the LEC. ••• The Langley junior A Thunder did not fare much better than the senior team. Langley also hosted New Westminster on Tuesday at the Langley Events Centre, falling 12-8 to the Junior Salmonbellies in B.C. Junior A Lacrosse League action. Trevor Chernoff and Nathaniel Kozevnikov had a pair of goals apiece while James Rahe had a goal and four assists and Bryce Brochu had six assists. The team, which is 2-6-1, visits the Delta Islanders tomorrow (Saturday) night.

are adults and the journey, or more likely commute, is long. It’s essentially a car for a couple and maybe one genetic unit but once that family grows then the CX-5 will appear on the family shopping list. That said, it’s a comfy ride in all seating positions. The rear cargo area is wonderful with rear seats flattened but limited otherwise. It’s probably fine –though for this car’s intended use and perfectly adequate for the weekly Big Shop. “Upscale” is a word rarely used when describing the fit, finish and looks of a compact car’s interior but it fits here. The lines flow pleasingly throughout and the use of red and metallic accents coupled with upmarket stitching is simply classy. The basic ingredients aren’t so basic even in the base model! – Standard equipment includes cloth seats, split-folding rear bench, push-button start, rear view camera and Mazda Connect infotainment system. The more deluxe models add nicer materials, offering premium safety and audio technology. The Front Wheel Drive version could be a good urban choice but I think Canadians will opt for the AWD CX-3. The fuel economy numbers are not dramatically different between the two options – 7.6 L/100km (FWD) 8.1 L/100km (AWD), combined city/highway. The CX-3 should arrive in local dealerships any day now. Prices have just been released. The base GX FWD starts at $20,695, the AWD version adds two grand to the sticker price, and that is also the base price for the GS. The GT starts at a hefty $28,995 and rises to $30,495. Take a long look at the GS versions.

In 2007, Jeep introduced a new longer wheelbase, 4-door version of its iconic “Wrangler” utility vehicle that it called “Wrangler Unlimited”. It must have been a “why didn’t we think of this before?” moment for the Jeep organization, as Wrangler Unlimited quickly widened the market appeal of this outstanding off-road vehicle. Yes, a longer wheelbase THE sacrifices a degree of agil-

ity, but adds much needed interior space and utility. The stretched body not only allows Wrangler Unlimited to tote more people and/ or stuff around, the rear seat is mounted ahead of the rear axle, which gives rear passengers a less bumpy ride. When the seats are folded, they present a completely flat extended cargo floor and 2,353-litres of storage space. Fast-forward to the 2011 model year and Wrangler Unlimited may still look the same on the outside but it came with an all-new interior. Heated seats, climate control, new audio inputs, Bluetooth connectivity, power-heated side mirrors and a 115-volt electrical outlet, make roughing it outdoors just a tad more comfortable. Wrangler Unlimited is the only four-door convertible currently on the market and its standard Sunrider soft top has a clever sunroof feature, in addition to a full top-down position. Classic Jeep features include its round headlights, a flat fold-down windshield, exposed door hinges and doors that are easy to remove and available in both full or half frame. An optional Jeep Freedom Top is a three-piece modular hardtop, which fits over a retracted soft top. In addition to providing a higher level of security, it has three removable panels. There are two Targa-like removable roof panels up front and a larger panel over the rear seats. Wrangler Unlimited originally came with a torque-rich 3.8-litre V6 coupled either to a sixspeed manual transmission or a four-speed automatic. It’s not a light vehicle and tips the scales at a robust 1896 kg (4180 lb), so gas consumption is also heavy. Expect gas consumption at 15.6/11.8 L/100 km (city/highway - new five-cycle rating) with the automatic transmission. So, to provide its wilderness-wandering customers the extended driving range they expect, Jeep fits an Unlimited with an extra large (85-litre) gas tank. The base Sport and Sahara trim levels came with a second-gener-

Jeep Unlimited continued from page 31
Aimed at serious out-door enthusiasts, the Rubicon edition is probably more Jeep than most buyers need. This off-road-ready machine comes with beefier suspension and steering components, protective skid plates, a roll cage and higher ground clearance. It also has an Off-Road Rock-Trac two-speed transfer case, a 4.0:1 lowrange gear ratio, electric front- and rear-axle lockers and an electronic sway bar disconnect. The 2012 Wrangler Unlimited got a new 3.6 litre V6 engine and a 5-speed automatic transmission. Power output and fuel economy, however, are both roughly the same as the 3.8 litre V6 / fourspeed automatic combo they replaced. No significant changes were made to Wrangler Unlimited for its 2013 or 2014 model years. A champion of the unpaved path, Jeep Wrangler Unlimited allows owners to pack more gear and share their outdoor adventure. bob.mchugh@drivewaybc.ca

The timing belt maintains the connection between camshaft and crankshaft. It is very important to change the timing belt regularly in order to prevent damage to the valves, cylinder head, and prevent engine damage that could lead to costly repairs. On the plus side, replacing your timing belt will increase your gas mileage and acceleration performance as well. Come speak to our Service Advisors about a timing belt inspection today.

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved husband, father, son, brother and uncle, Tony Herbert. He was born in Fairford, Gloucestershire, England and immigrated to Canada in 1968, living in Ontario, Alberta and finally settling in White Rock, British Columbia. Tony graduated from Earl Marriott High School in 1985, where he met the love of his life, and future wife Cynthia Martin. He began his career as a Police Officer as a reservist with the Delta Police Force while pursuing Criminology at Simon Fraser University. Upon graduation from University, he joined the Vancouver Police Force, later to join the Abbotsford Police Force rising to the honourable rank of Sergeant. During his time with Abbotsford, Tony was a member of many different teams, and was a proven leader. Throughout his career he received multiple commendations for bravery and earned the respect of his peers. He was an expert marksman and a member of the SWAT Team. As a Sergeant, Tony’s team was his main concern and he felt it was his duty to ensure their well-being. To serve and protect was a motto he lived by and strived to uphold and teach. Growing up Tony was active in many sports, including floor and ice hockey, but his true passion was soccer where he both played and coached. Tony was a member of the Police Force soccer team where he continued to live his passion for the sport. After one particular soccer tournament, celebrating a victory, he returned home not only with a trophy, but with a tattoo of a dubious looking Maple Leaf. As an adult, Tony was a self-taught builder, plumber, electrician, mechanic, landscaper and all around handyman. He had a tireless work ethic not only when it came to his family, but for all his friends as well. In 1991, Tony and Cynthia (Cyn) were married, soon settling in Langley where they started their family. Tony was a devoted husband, friend and partner, helping to raise two wonderful children, Kelsey and Zachary. Tony and Cyn shared a love for spending time with family and friends. They opened their home and hearts to many and touched the lives of all. Tony was a dedicated father, always putting Kelsey and Zach first. He watched with great joy and pride many dance recitals, soccer games, ice skating competitions and floor hockey. He was a great role model and his spirit will live on through his children. As a son you couldn’t have asked for better. Tony was loving, thoughtful, kind and always there when you needed him. He filled our hearts with love and pride. As a brother, he was a protector, a shoulder to lean on and a true friend. Neither time nor distance could break the sibling bond and the love that was shared. As a friend, Tony had many long-lasting friendships. He was a true and genuine ‘mate’, sharing many laughs, drinks and good-times. Tony will be greatly missed and remembered by all the lives that he touched. His spirit will live on with shared memories of laughter, fun and love. He will be survived by his wife, Cyn, his children Kelsey and Zach, his parents Geoff and Diana, his sister Vikki and her husband Dave. He will also be remembered by his extended family, Jim and Jean, Theresa and Rob , Steve and Jacqueline, Rebecca and Scott, many nieces, nephews, cousins and countless friends. Services to be held on June 3rd at 1pm, at Abbotsford Pentecostal Assembly Church located at 3145 Gladwin Road, Abbotsford, B.C. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations to be made to the Children’s Hospital in Tony’s memory. Condolences for the family may be left online at www.arbutusfuneralservice.com
