ROYAL CANADIAN LEGION BRANCH 21 HAD TO CLOSE LOUNGE BECAUSE IT WAS ‘BLEEDING MONEY’ SAYS REGIONAL EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR DA N F E R G US ON Time s Re po rte r
B OAZ JOSEPH Black Press

The Langley branch of the Royal Canadian Legion has closed the second-floor lounge it operates at 20570 56 Ave. The decision was made at a Saturday, Sept. 19 meeting, and took effect the next day. Employees have been laid off and the branch is looking for office space to operate its annual poppy campaign and provide space for a local service officer. “It is with sadness that we have to announce that the Langley Legion will be closing its doors,” said an online statement by David Brocklehurst, Branch 21 First Vice President.
The message posted at langleylegion.com said the legion will continue operating as a service branch. Brocklehurst said this year’s poppy campaign will go ahead as planned and so will the Remembrance Day parade. A Branch 21 membership meeting has been scheduled for Monday Sept. 28. Inga Kruse, executive director of the Legion’s B.C./ Yukon Command, called the shutdown a “tragedy.” “It’s a terrible, terrible thing.” The Langley City branch will keep its Legion charter, Kruse said.

FHA failing teens with psychiatric issues – mother MO N I Q U E TA M M I N G A Ti me s Re po r t e r
Hospitals across the region are seeing a significant increase in the number of youth in need of psychiatric services, says Fraser Health Authority CEO Michael Marchbank.
It’s an area of health care that needs to be examined, said Marchbank, speaking at the Fraser Health board meeting held in Langley on Wednesday. Marchbank was responding to the comments of a mother who expressed her frustration with
the lack of psychiatric services available — services her daughter desperately needs but isn’t getting. The board meeting, held at Cascades Casino and conference centre, was open to the public and included a question period.
Abbotsford mom Jackie Gettings asked why teens with psychiatric problems, including her daughter, are not being helped and are instead being released even though they are often a risk to themselves. The B.C. Coroner Service is
planning an inquest into the suicides of three young people who took their lives after being released from the mental health unit at Abbotsford Hospital. The system is failing kids across the region, said Gettings. Continued Page 3

Members down, costs up GOOD PEOPLE TRIED HARD TO KEEP LOUNGE OPEN – REGIONAL E.D. Legion, from Page 1
“The last thing veterans need is one less branch.” Kruse said the volunteers who managed the branch did everything they could to make a go of it, but could not overcome a combination of declining membership and higher-than-expected expenses. “They’ve been trying so hard,” Kruse said. “They’re good people and they work hard.” Until Branch 21 opens its new office, concerned members are advised to contact the regional branch at 604575-8840 if they need assistance, Kruse said. Kruse said the branch was under “probationary management” for several years, a situation where the regional command exercises more supervision than usual. “It was bleeding money,” Kruse said. “It couldn’t make a go of it as a business in that area.” She declined to discuss the financial details, but previous reports show problems at the branch were worsened by an attempt to save money through relocating from its former home on nearby Eastleigh Crescent to the smaller 56 Ave. location in 2010. If it had gone as planned, the branch would have had a substantial amount of money in the bank, but instead the organization ended up
Criteria to commit ‘needs to change’ Mental health, from Page 1
DAN FER GUS ON L an gley Time s
The Langley City Legion branch has closed its lounge and is relocating. The decision was made Saturday Sept. 19. Branch 21 will continue to offer services to veterans. The annual poppy campaign and Remembrance Day ceremony will also go ahead this autumn. $200,000 in the hole and carrying a large mortgage. That’s because the Legion had planned to spend between $400,000 and $700,000 on renovations and upgrading to its new property, but it turned out that the building they purchased needed more than $1 million in im-
provements. That was more than they’d paid for the property itself. A 2011 report by the then-financial officer of the Langley City branch predicted a shutdown was imminent. “I foresee our doors closing in the very near future,” Jerry
Gibbons wrote in the organization’s newsletter, 21 Gun Salute. In the same issue, Gail Reid, then-president of the Legion branch noted that of the Legion’s 800 members, only about 50 are active. — files from Brenda Anderson
“The second time my daughter was admitted, I begged your doctors to keep my daughter. even for three days, to stabilize her,” said Gettings. “I told the doctors, it is on them for what happens to my daughter if they release her, and they still did. Within one week she was missing. “I want some accountability. Your criteria to keep my daughter needs to change,” she said. Last week, Abbotsford Police put out an alert after Gettings’ daughter went missing while she was under serious mental distress. She was located in Surrey. Gettings’ daughter had been admitted to Abbotsford Regional Hospital twice within a threeweek period following two suicide attempts. Despite her mother’s pleas to commit her under the Mental Health Act, doctors released the teen. Parents across B.C. have been calling on health authorities to do more for youth struggling with suicidal thoughts and mental health issues, including psychotic episodes. “It’s great there are seven beds in Surrey, but what about Abbotsford, what about Langley and all the other communities?” she asked. Gettings said no one followed up with her after her daughter’s second suicide attempt. It’s very rare for anyone to be committed under the Mental Health Act, said one doctor, speaking from the audience on Wednesday. He said there are very strict criteria when it comes to committing someone against their will. “It requires two physicians to certify someone against their will. With teens, we frequently discharge them and try to connect them to programs like Youth In Crisis.” However Gettings noted such programs are voluntary, meaning her daughter cannot be forced to take part. “This is an area we need to look into. No one is disputing this is an issue,” Marchbank responded.
‘Firefighter for a Day’ contest open to kids in Grades K to 7 Hey kids, want to be a firefighter? Here is your chance. One lucky child will have his/ her name drawn to be fire chief for a day in Langley Township. That child will be picked up from their school in a fire truck and driven to the fire hall where they will report for duty and be fitted with turn-out gear.
The contest winner will spend the morning participating in firefighting activities, including looking for a missing person in a smoky room, putting out a fire with an extinguisher, learning about fire engines and going for a ride in a fire truck. The lucky winner also has the official duty of picking up the
mayor in a fire engine. The Township fire department has been hosting the Fire Chief for a Day contest for more than 20 years. “The kids really have a great time,” said Township assistant fire chief Pat Walker. “Their favourite part, I think, is being picked up by a fire engine at their school
or house. That’s a pretty unique experience.” The fire chief for a day will eat lunch with the mayor and this year’s “Safety Stars” — members of the community who have gone beyond the call of duty for safety or perhaps have even saved someone from a fire. The contest is open to kids in
grades K - 7 who live in the Township of Langley. Contest closes on Thursday, Oct. 1 at 5 p.m. Fill out a contest ballot online through the Langley Times website on the contest tab on the right top corner, on The Times Facebook page or drop by Fire Hall 6 in Murrayville and fill out a contest form.

‘Urgent’ culvert replacement closes section of Grade Cres. M IRAN D A G AT H E R C O L E Tim e s Re po r t e r
Traffic near H.D. Stafford Middle School and surrounding residences will continue to be disrupted by construction until Oct. 16. Access along Grade Crescent, from H.D. Stafford to 203 Street, was closed last week for crews from J. Cote & Son Excavating to replace the Pleasantdale Creek culvert that runs under the road. It was an “urgent project that needed to move forward as quickly as possible,� Rick Bomhof, City director of engineering, parks and environment, told council on Sept. 14. An inspection found the culvert to be in far worse condition than previously thought — so bad, it may not have survived the winter. Video footage shows accelerated corrosion and deformation of the pipe. Worst-case scenario, it could fail and block the entire creek flow, causing a dam-effect on the water, Bomhof explained. There is also a fisheries window deadline of Sept. 30, meaning the replacement needed to happen immediately, he said. Originally, the construction was planned for next summer. The existing steel pipe is now being replaced by a larger concrete pipe at a cost of $438,000, which was

The first increase would take effect April 1, 2016. Transportation Minister Todd Stone said he is encouraged by the fare caps, the lowest increases since 2004, and a four per cent increase in BC Ferries traffic since April. Stone said the low Canadian dollar has helped BC Ferries’ tourist business, and the corporation has more work to do to cut costs.

They fought the good fight, but the mounting financial pressures facing Langley City Branch 21 of the Royal Canadian Legion proved more than its members could overcome. Last Sunday, the doors to the 56 Avenue lounge, where the local Legion served drinks and meals and offered live music in an effort to bring in more people, closed for good after failing to draw the numbers needed to balance the organization’s books. But the closure doesn’t spell the end for the Langley City Legion. Instead, Branch 21 will operate out of a new, smaller, office — the location of which has yet to be announced — providing services for its members and co-ordinating its annual poppy campaign. While it’s a sad development, the closure hasn’t come out of the blue. By 2012, Branch 21’s finances were becoming a serious problem. The purchase of a new building cost the organization far more than it had anticipated, after members learned they would be required to do extensive renovations to the two-storey structure to bring it in line with the City’s regulations. Inga Kruse, executive director of the Legions B.C./Yukon Command said at the time that she was confident the branch would pull through. “People in the Langley branch, I know, are very dedicated to seeing it survive. Our organization is not sitting around waiting to die.” On Wednesday, Kruse again — rightly — praised the membership for their effort to keep the hall open and described its closure as a “tragedy.” Despite the setback, Legion members will continue to carry out their pivotal role in the community — ensuring veterans are served and taking part in the Remembrance Day parade and services, which will go ahead as usual this Nov. 11 at the cenotaph in Douglas Park. In the weeks before that, Legion members and volunteers will be out in force, standing in front of Langley businesses with boxes of poppies for sale. Why not buy one, pin it on and show them your support?

Question
of the week
Do you think the recent increase in B.C.’s minimum wage from $10.25 to $10.45/hour goes far enough?
Answer online at www.langleytimes.com
A game of numbers they
Every politician and would-be MP or MLA knows, or at least they should, that polling numbers don’t translate into seats. Polling figures from Nanos Research released this week show the governing Conservatives, Opposition NDP and the Liberals in a virtual dead heat among decided voters, with support ranging between 29 and 31 per cent. But even if that was the last poll conducted before election day, it wouldn’t necessarily mean Parliament would split exactly down those lines. There is always a huge glut of people who are undecided up until the late stages of a campaign — some estimates put it as high as 25 per cent. In a close election race, the number of people who make up their mind just before heading to the polling station is likely far more than politicians or parties would care to see. It would be interesting to know how many people use polling figures to help them cast their vote. Unfortunately, releasing polling data has become a public relations ploy, especially with all the parties commissioning their own polls at various times. One firm hired by the NDP came back with numbers last week that said Liberal leader Justin Trudeau was trailing an opponent by 11 points in his own riding. A poll conducted for a national media company with a far larger sample size and different methodology found Trudeau to actually be leading by five points. Political parties hire pollsters to come up with numbers they feel will help them. Without a doubt, if the numbers don’t flatter them, they don’t publicize them. While stats heads might find the pre-election numbers interesting, the only ones that count are on election day. So what do we take from this? Voters can do their homework on local candidates and leave the polls for the parties to play around with. – Penticton Western News

Views on religion best kept to self Editor: Once again I feel it my civic duty to rebuke yet another of Jim McGregor’s opinion pieces, Not a time to give up (The Times, Sept. 11). His latest column makes it once again clear, his desire to push his personal religion on the rest of us. He starts off by mentioning a religiously motivated attack (9/11) and continues on to say how bibles in the schools forcibly placed among “our impressionable youth” would make for better world citizens and result in world peace. Surely I cannot be the only one to see the irony and fallacy in this statement. Put as many bibles or other holy texts from whatever religion, in as many desk drawers in your own house as you wish. I’ll gladly defend his right to do that, however stop trying to push it into my child’s education. Teaching children comparative religion is one thing, brainwashing “impressionable youth,” to use his own words, is a travesty that I will not stand for. I have two children who will be encouraged to think critically and, just as importantly, for themselves. What students and youth don’t need are more dogmatic religions shoved down their throats. I believe in parents’ rights to teach their kids their family’s traditions and customs, and if that involves using morality tales (from a number of sources preferably), that’s fine. But Mr. McGregor doesn’t want that. He wants his personal religion to be followed by everyone else. It’s not just enough for him to follow,
or his friends and family, but to indoctrinate children at such an age where critical thinking hasn’t been learned yet is the definition of immoral. This attitude that morality and ethics are solely the domain of religion is outdated and antiquated to the point of scoffing at such an ironic piece of writing as his latest article. I’m all for Mr. McGregor’s underlying message of our common humanity’s plight, and in banding together as citizens of this single and only planet that we inhabit as a species in the vastness of space and to all work together in making the world a better place for every single person on it, as well as for the future generations to come. However, as we learned on Sept. 11th, 2001, sometimes religion can cause divisiveness and creates more problems than it claims to solve. Which religion, if any at all, is the right and true one? The men who murdered 3,000 people on a September day 14 years ago, thought that by killing innocent men, women and children, they would be rewarded with eternal rewards and earn their place in paradise. This idea is not mutually exclusive to Islam either. Christianity, like most other religions, has had a sordid history of immoral and terrible injustices done in it’s name. Instead of putting Bronze Age fables into my two sons’ curriculum, why not teach them about the plight of children their own age in refugee camps on the other side of the world. Or why not a community cleanup field
trip day? Encourage students to participate in international exchange programs to learn about different cultures first hand. Let’s put our minds to it and I’m sure we could think of some even better, more effective solutions to teaching kids to be active, caring global citizens. Canadians and Americans are becoming more irreligious in every pew poll and scientific study that comes out and crime rates are at all-time lows in both our countries, despite what Fox News or other fear mongers would have us believe. Life spans are increasing for everyone in North America and every other first world country around the globe. Infant mortality rates are also at all time lows and the quality of life for almost everyone is going up. Let’s encourage these same statistics in less fortunate countries and continents worldwide in ways such as education, healthcare, women’s rights and ending poverty once and for all. So please keep your private religious beliefs to yourself, Mr. McGregor. If it makes you a better person, I couldn’t be happier for you. There is plenty of religious literature out there for inquisitive young minds. Yes, let’s all make the world a better place, but it is my duty as a father and conscionable, secular citizen to prevent the nonsense Jim McGregor would have us believe would solve all our problems, from entering our publicly funded schools. ZAK GRAHAM, LANGLEY
Helpful service deserves round of thanks Editor: I would like to say thank you to some very special people. When I go to stores and get good service — helpful and knowledgeable — I come back. So I would like to say thank you to Crystal — meat department of Buy-Low Foods in Brookswood; Joanne — Shoppers Home Health Store in Langley; Marilyn — Wil-
lowbrook Sears cosmetics; Jean — Sears menswear; Ann — ladies wear and some other very helpful people there. Also the ladies in Coles bookstore, Willowbrook mall; Mitzy, Lavina, Barrie and others — always friendly and nice. I was in Home Depot lighting and had some very helpful people find
me what I needed. I would also like to thank the young man who helped my husband on a cold November Sunday change a tire on our car. You had an Irish T-shirt. People in retail get paid a low salary, but store owners, please remember good staff are worth their weight in gold. I wish you an Irish blessing:
May the road rise to meet you. May the wind be always at your back. May the rain fall soft on your fields. Until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of his hand. Slainte. R. O’CONNOR, LANGLEY
Seniors health care strategy requires federal input Editor: The Canadian Medical Association estimates that if we had the home and community care infrastructure to look after seniors who are currently warehoused in Canadian hospitals, we could free up $2.3 billion a year in our health care system. Canadians pay some of the highest drug prices in the world. A national drug plan would save an estimated $11 billion. But a national seniors care strategy and a nation drug plan have something in common: they require leadership from our federal government. Instead, the current federal government under Stephen Harper plans to cut $36 billion in health funding and refuses to meet with the provinces on health care. The vast majority of Canadians want to see federal leadership in public health care. All parties would be wise to provide voters with a compelling plan for strengthening the system we all rely on.

Jobs, childcare and long-term care for seniors focus of NDP The Langley Times invited candidates in both the Langley-Aldergrove and Cloverdale-Langley City ridings to identify what they consider to be the top issues facing voters in the Langleys and to explain what they would do to address those concerns. Until Friday, Oct. 16, we will be publishing their answers — alternating ridings — each Wednesday and Friday. The order in which they will appear was selected in a random draw. In this issue, we hear from Margot Sangster, New Democratic Party candidate for the riding of Langley-Aldergrove.
A
fter nearly a decade of Stephen Harper, middle class families are working harder than ever, yet falling further behind. I hear this almost every day out on the doorsteps talking to people in our community. People in Langley and Aldergrove tell me again and again how hard it is for their family just to make ends meet. They’re worried about their children’s prospects. Small businesses create eight out every 10 new jobs in Canada and we need a plan to support small business owners in Langley and Aldergrove. Tom Mulcair and the NDP have committed to reducing the tax rate on small businesses from 11 per cent to nine per cent, allowing them to hire new people, buy new equipment, and spend more money in our local economy.
Our community’s health depends on having vibrant local businesses create jobs and help people work close to home and spend more time with their families. Access to quality, affordable childcare is a critical issue in Langley-Aldergrove and right across the country. Tom Mulcair and the NDP are committed to creating one million quality childcare spaces at $15 per day, with 110,000 of those spaces here in British Columbia. Far too many parents, and they are overwhelmingly women, discover that the cost of childcare eats up most or all of the income they could earn returning to work. Some are forced to abandon their careers altogether. This is bad for families, and bad for businesses that have invested in their
employees’ training and experience. Giving families in Langley-Aldergrove a quality, affordable childcare option is good for our economy, and good for parents, who can provide a higher standard of living for their children. Canadian seniors, people who have worked throughout their lives to build this country, deserve to live in dignity and be treated with respect by their government. I have spoken with many seniors and their families in Langley-Aldergrove, and they are deeply concerned that they won’t be able to access proper home care or find appropriate longterm care. Tom Mulcair and the NDP are committed to working with the provinces and territories to invest in home care, build 5,000 more nursing home beds, and deliver stable, long-term funding for seniors’ care. New Democrats will return the retirement age to 65 from 67, and provide $400 million in additional funding for the guaranteed income supplement. These were key priorities for Jack Layton, and a Tom Mulcair government will continue that work and ensure that no Canadian senior has to live in poverty.

It also needs to do a better job of communicating with its customers, particularly when there are major breakdowns and disruptions, such as when SkyTrain is shut down for hours. Fassbender has seen it from a mayor’s perspective, and now he will see it from a provincial perspective. Knowing both perspectives well is a huge benefit. He will make changes, and hopefully they will help TransLink to do an even better job. He has promised there will be significant changes by the end of the year, and called on the board to suspend its search for a new CEO until the future direction has been made plain. Hopefully, long-term planning

Fassbender was given the education minister’s job when elected. His mandate there was to reach a bargained contract with the B.C. Teachers Federation. It was a tough task, and he endured a lot of name-calling and pressure as the teachers’ strike dragged on. But he hung in there, and to his credit (and the BCTF’s), they managed to reach a contract at the bargaining table — a rarity in B.C. education labour relations. That won him a lot of credibility with his boss, Premier Christy Clark. Now he has a new task. This new challenge won’t be easy. Some of the mayors won’t be happy that he will be overseeing TransLink. But he will ensure that the organization adopts the kind of change it needs to go forward, and he will not sidestep accountability.

Aiming to secure world’s food supply LANGLEY COMPANY PRODUCING DRIED LARVAE TO SERVE AS NUTRIENT RICH FOOD MO N I Q U E TA M M I N G A Ti m e s Re po r t e r
Enterra Feed Corp. CEO Brad Marchant was on a fishing trip with David Suzuki when the two got to talking about how fish meal, a type of feed for animals, is leading to overfishing in South America. That’s when Suzuki came up with the idea for an insect farm, where the flies would be bred to produce larvae that could act as a nutrient rich food to replace fishmeal. That idea took flight years ago and last year, Enterra chose Langley to open a $7.5 million facility on 216 Street, making dried larvae feed for fish and poultry meal as well as organic fertilizer for local farmers. “Insect farming has produced sustainable feed for animals and plants,” said Marchant who toured fish and agricultural farmers as well as politicians around the Langley plant earlier this month (Sept. 10). “Our mission is to secure the world’s food supply,” said Enterra’s Victoria Leung. Enterra’s products solve two major problems: food waste and
nutrient shortage. Traditional protein sources in animal feed include fishmeal and soybean meal, explained Leung. Fishmeal is made up of small marine fish that are caught in the wild, an unsustainable practice that is being threatened by overfishing, she said. “Soybean farms take a lot of land that should be used for crops. It also uses lots of water,” she said. Keeping Metro Vancouver’s Zero Waste rules, Enterra accepts pre-consumer organic waste from a variety of sources including farms, greenhouses and grocery stores — including Overwaitea Food Group and T&T Supermarket Inc. — all over the Lower Mainland. Enterra breeds soldier flies and then feeds fruit and vegetable waste to the fly larvae. The company sells the dried larvae to feed manufacturers, who include it in animal feed, mostly for chicken and farmed fish. It is also being put in pet food.
MONIQUE TA MMINGA Langley Tim e s
Enterra marketing and sales manager Victoria Leung gave a presentation about the black soldier fly the Langley company is breeding to make larvae used as nutrient rich food for animals and fish in replacement of fish meal or soy feed. Below: Enterra CEO Brad Marchant demonstrates how humans can eat the larvae the dry and sell for animal and fish food at their $7.5 million Langley facility. They are also making organic fertilizer being used by local farmers.
If the technology works like we think it will, there will be thousands of these facilities all over the world. BRAD MARCHANT
Enterra’s larvae is cheaper than the two most common feed additives, fish meal and soybean, mainly because they are the new guy on the block but also because
it is much easier to produce larvae, said Leung. The ‘docile soldier fly’ is bigger and thinner than our household fly but if the insect does escape into Langley’s skies, it is highly unlikely it could lay eggs, said Marchant and Leung. The larvae is full of protein and energy. “One third of the world’s population relies on insects as their main source of protein. Latin America eats the most insects in crickets and meal worms,” said Marchant, who demonstrated how good the larvae is by eating one. The 35-employee facility also sells insect manure that is high in nutrients and certified organic. “We’ve created a renewable
product that up-cycles the waste material and puts it back into the food chain,” Leung said. Enterra uses only pre-consumer food, like fruit and vegetables or bakery goods that have gone bad before being sold. Enterra is currently working with Kwantlen Polytechnic University’s horticultural program to study their fertilizer because it appears it is a natural pesticide to root maggot. “That was an unexpected benefit to the fertilizer,” said Marchant. “Agriculture Canada is doing research to prove out the pesticide aspects to our fertilizer which also may have mold control aspects which could be huge for greenhouses where mold is a problem.” Enterra is actually a world lead-
er in this type of insect farming and spend a lot of time working on developing regulations around it and supporting other companies trying to develop these facilities across the world. “We are helping leaders in other countries,” said Marchant. “If the technology works like we think it will, there will thousands of these facilities all over the world.” Despite being world leaders and successfully selling their larvae feed to the U.S. and Europe, Enterra can’t sell its feed in Canada. “We have had our application into the Canadian Food Inspection Agency for four years now,” said Marchant.

Matcon donating $20K Langley-based Matcon Civil Constructors made a $20,000 contribution toward the construction of Reach Child and Youth Development’s new facility being built in Ladner. To date, almost $4 million has been raised from individual and community donors to build a new children’s community resource centre in the heart of Ladner. The proposed 20,000 square foot building will replace
the current Ladner Kinsmen House at 47th Avenue and allow Reach Society to provide new, enhanced programs for children with special needs and increase the number of children served in the communities of Langley, Surrey and Delta. In addition, the new location will make Reach services more visible and easily accessible to families. “Social responsibility is at
the heart of Matcon Civil Constructors,” said Reach Foundation executive director Renie D’Aquila. “Once complete, the new Reach Centre will serve generations to come as place of learning and belonging for children with special needs and their families.” Over 10,000 children and their families benefit from Reach’s services on an annual bases.

TIPS FOR BUYING “While location continues to be a standard for purchase, more families are also considering a home’s proximity to services valuable to them: shopping centres, grocery stores, recreational facilities, and restaurants.” Michael Trites
NEW HOME DEVELOPMENT
What to keep in mind when buying a home By Nicolle Hodges
One of the first mentions of “location, location, location,” can be traced back to a real estate classified ad in the Chicago Tribune in 1926. While it’s still a mystery who coined the phrase, more interesting is that nearly 90 years later it still rings true. New or experienced homebuyers may begin looking for a home for a variety of purposes, including downsizing, relocating, or their growing family. Regardless of the reason there are important factors to bear in mind before closing a sale. While location continues to be a standard for purchase, more families are also considering a home’s proximity to services valuable to them: shopping centres, grocery stores, recreational facilities, and restaurants. Michael Trites, managing broker and sales associate at Royal LePage Northstar Realty says homebuyers need to be aware of what the likelihood of a major rezoning or transportation expansion occurring in their area of interest. “Rapid transit routes are planned years in advance so it’s important to verify what is planned by the various government agencies,” he says. “Rezoning to higher density housing in the future can increase usage of schools and recreation facilities beyond their present capacity.” He adds that most buyers have narrowed down the possible styles of a home that are important to them, so next to keep in mind is the quality of renovations. “Poorly done renovations often entail major work and expense to correct, and if completed without permits, can also be a material latent defect which has to be disclosed to a buyer prior to their preparing an offer to purchase.” An example of a material latent defect is a defect that cannot be discovered through an inspection, such as improper framing or building construction not done to building code and hidden behind walls or floors. Non-disclosure of a grow op could also be considered a latent defect due to possible mold or electrical issues. A patent defect is one that is discoverable through inspection, such as water in a crawl space, water stains on a ceiling, and cracks in flooring or foundation. From the inner workings of a home to how it’s staged, should there be a “top priority” checklist when looking to buy, and if so, what should be on it? Trites says the home buyer will likely have created their own wish list of ‘must haves’ and ‘want to haves’ to be included in their new home, and a REALTOR® will have their own standard clauses as subjects for offers that they

instead of a friend or relative, ask your REALTOR® to provide you with a sample contract of purchase and sale so you can review the standard clauses prior to actually making an offer on a property.” Whether you are an experienced buyer or still green to the housing market, it’s important to use the head and not the heart when it comes to buying a home, to not overextend yourself financially. “[A buyer] may absolutely love the home, but the costs associated to purchase and maintain it could restrict their existing lifestyle to the point of being ‘house poor,’” says Trites. “Purchase within your comfort level and view homes that fit that criteria.” The bottom line is that Real Estate has always been considered a long-term investment, and it’s likely to rise and fall many times over its lifetime. Trites says that once [a home] is paid for, it’s yours, as opposed to renting for the long term. Buy what you can afford and realize the market has factors that drive it, most of which are beyond our control.

Dancing with the Devil
All quiet on Stealth draft front G A RY AHUJA Times Sports
D A N F E RGUSON La ng ley Times
Langley Thunder’s Braiden Struss Reid attempts to sidestep a member of the Burnaby Devils during U13 field lacrosse action at Willoughby Community Park on Sunday.
A
At last year’s National Lacrosse League draft, general manager Doug Locker made a splash, landing forwards Johnny Powless and Joel McCready as well as gritty defender Rory Smith. And on the eve of the 2015 NLL draft — which takes place on Monday in Toronto — Locker was playing his cards close to his vest. “The reality of the draft is that things just develop,” Locker said on Wednesday afternoon. “Up until the draft starts, we will be continuing to look at ways to improve ourselves and be prepared to deal with any opportunities that come up.” The Stealth have eight draft picks in the six-round draft, but their first pick does not come until late in the second round, where they will select 19th and 21st overall. The picks are compensatory picks for past free agents they have lost. Vancouver — which finished second from the bottom in the nine-team league in 2015 — traded away what turned out to be the second overall
pick (as well as their top picks in 2017 and 2018) as part of last year’s moves. And while the team may lack high picks in a fairly deep draft, Locker is happy with the off-season moves the Stealth have made so far, especially at the defensive end of the floor. The team gets Matt Beers back — he missed all of 2015 due to work commitments — as well as adding Ian Hawksbee and Jeff Moleski. All three play defence and have a combined 25 seasons of NLL experience under their belts. “Three really big defensive additions who are not only going to help us experience-wise but lacrosse IQ-wise,” Locker said, “We obviously felt like we pretty exposed defensively last year; we needed to beef that up.” “We just weren’t very deep and when we did suffer injuries during the season, we really couldn’t cover. We ended up playing younger guys with not a lot of experience,” he added. “They did a great job, but it is a lot to ask of them. The good news now is that those guys
have that experience now.” With the increased depth, especially on the back-end, Locker feels the team is better prepared to handle injuries during the course of the season. They also added defender Reid Mydske and transition player Travis Cornwall in free agency. “I used to take the fact that they were a lot of good defenders for granted until the last couple of years when we really needed to find them and they didn’t seem to exist,” Locker said. “We are going to make sure we are very deep defensively.” Up front, the Stealth had a middle of the pack offence with just under 12 goals per game. The team returns all their key offensive players with new additions Colton Clark and Keegan Bal, as well as 2014 draft pick Matt Delmonico, hoping to crack the line-up. And in goal, the team will have a new No. 1 netminder after Tyler Richards off-season retirement. The Stealth did get a glimpse of life without Richards as Eric
Penney filled in admirably during the 2015 campaign. “We really liked what he did with us when he was thrown into the fire during that fivegame stretch,” Locker said. Cody Hagedorn and Adam Shute will also fight for a roster spot in the Vancouver crease. Locker would like to add a fourth goaltender — either via the draft or free agency — prior to training camp, which will be in late November. ••• The Stealth also announced former captain Kyle Sorenson — who missed all of 2015 after knee surgery — is joining the team as an assistant coach and the team’s defensive co-ordinator. “We had a very qualified group of candidates interested in this position and are humbled by their interest in joining our organization,” Locker said. “In the end, we believe that Kyle is the best person for the job. He has a tremendous mind for the game and we have seen his leadership on and off the floor. He has earned the respect of our players, and we know what he is capable of as a coach.”

Week honouring province’s coaches Coaches from across the province are being honoured this week for their hard work and dedication as part of the provincial government’s Coaches Week. “Many fine athletes have excelled in many different sports in this province and behind every one of those was at least one person who gave guidance, insight, and most importantly, their time,” said Peter Fassbender, the minister of community, sport and cultural development. “This week we honour all of the coaches in British Columbia who have helped shape an athlete’s dream.” “The active role that a coach plays in an athlete’s development cannot be overstated,” said Gordon Hogg, the parliamentary secretary for youth sports. “They are there every step of the way from the first time someone
puts on a pair of skates or grabs a ball, to the first time someone wants to compete in the 55+ B.C. Games.” The government has partnered with ViaSport to promote the recruitment and development of coaches. “Whether it’s trying a sport for the first time or going for gold, coaches are the leaders who fuel the strength, motivation and confidence needed to perform,” said Sheila Bouman, the CEO of ViaSport. As part of coaches week, British Columbians are encouraged to tweet or post a selfie of themselves and their coach on social media, using the hashtag #ThanksCoach and tagging @CoachesViaSport on Twitter or @ViaSport on Facebook and Instagram for a chance to win a prize for their coach. The winners will be announced on Monday (Sept. 28).

Stellar ‘D’ leads the way
The North Langley Bears peewee football team used a stout defensive effort to blank the Meadow Ridge Knights 20-0 on Saturday at McLeod Athletic Park. Ezekiel Bodill, Ryan Goeson, Jacob Deibert, Jordon Williams and Ethan Sledding led the defence with several key tackles. Mathieu Gale led the offence with a pair of touchdowns, while Lance Barker had the other score. Tyson Hoy added a convert and both he and quarterback Owen Sieben had some chain-moving runs to keep drives allowed. Gale also recovered an onside kick. ••• A pair of touchdown runs and 81 yards from Ethan Bernardin helped lead the North Langley Bears to victory over the Abbotsford Falcons. The bantam Bears football team grounded the visiting Falcons on Saturday at McLeod Athletic Park. Pablo Wigwigan and Evan Rees also scored a touchdown apiece while David Wegert kicked a pair of converts. The stingy Bears defence forced three Abbotsford turnovers, with Jacob Price and Connor Hurley recovering a fumble while Mitch Ray made an outstanding play, tipping a Falcons pass which Ser Ler Pwe intercepted. Ryan Taylor also had a stellar game, consistently applying pressure on the Abbotsford quarterback. ••• The North Langley Bears fell 36-8 to the Meadow Ridge Knights Blue squad in atom football on Saturday. Evan Hoy rushed for 35 yards and the team’s only touchdown. Ryan Heutink kicked a two-point convert. The Bears defence had a stellar second half, allowing just eight points after the break. Markus MacLeod, Lucca Patterson, Rowen Engele and Lucas Laroche all made key tackles while Aiden McMurty led the way with three tackles. ••• After battling the Chilliwack Giants to a 6-6 draw at the half, the Langley Mustangs came up short in the second half. The bantam football teams squared off on Sunday at McLeod Athletic Park with the visiting Giants scoring a pair of second-half touchdowns to win 22-6. The Mustangs ground game was working with Brodie Thomas (65 yards) and Nathan Goddard (25 yards) moving the ball, but the team could not find the end zone, save for a touchdown pass from Jaxon Russell to Joshua Fletcher from 15 yards. Damon Minhas was the team’s leading receiver with three catches and 30 yards. The defence was led by the trio of Joe Nickel (14 tackles), Ethan Croome (10 tackles, one quarterback sack and a fumble recovery) and Stryker Roloff (10 tackles and a pair of QB sacks). Joshua Fletcher also picked off a pass for a third straight game. AROUND THE WORLD in

Mercedes dreams sometimes come true ‘‘
At the touch of a button, or automatically on reaching a speed of 80 km/h, the MercedesBenz Concept IAA performs a fascinating transformation in which the captivatingly beautiful four-door coupé turns into an aerodynamics world champion.
’’
Keith Morgan
FRANKFURT, Germany – International auto shows have always been a veritable playground for the fantasies of car designers. The more outlandish and futuristic the concept on display the more wide-eyed showgoers become as they trudge around. The difference today is that they tend not to be wild dreams but an indication of the shape of things to come within the next couple of years. A prime example in Frankfurt is the Mercedes-Benz "Concept IAA" (Intelligent Aerodynamic Automobile). Says the prestige German brand: “It is two cars in one: an aerodynamics world champion with a Cd value of 0.19 and a four-door coupé embodying irresistible design.” At the touch of a button, or automatically on reaching a speed of 80 km/h, the Mercedes-Benz "Concept IAA" (Intelligent Aerodynamic Automobile) performs a fascinating transformation in which the captivatingly beautiful four-door coupé turns into an aerodynamics world champion: eight segments extend at the rear, increasing its length by up to 390 millimetres; front flaps in the front bumper extend by 25 mm to the front and 20 mm to the rear, improving the air flow around the front end and the front wheel arches; the Active Rims alter their cupping from 55 mm to zero; and the louvre in the front bumper moves 60 mm to the rear, improving the underbody air flow.”

Death Valley site of hot weather test for all-new Kia Sportage Kia Motors has revealed details of the intensive hot weather development tests for the all-new Kia Sportage as part of the most extreme and rigorous vehicle testing program ever devised by the company. The all-new Sportage made its global debut at the 2015 Frankfurt International Motor Show earlier this month, and will go on sale globally in the first quarter of 2016.
Easy to find, just south of the Langley Bypass at:
Now entering its f o u r t h - g e n e r at i o n , Kia’s all-new compact CUV is undergoing the final stages of its development, with engineers testing the Sportage in Death Valley – one of the hottest places on Earth, with temperatures rising as high as 56ºC (132ºF) in the summer months.

signed to operate in the harshest environments. For the all-new Sportage’s hot weather test, particular focus has been placed on developing its class-leading heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems. Kia turns the heat up for class-leading air conditioning performance
Among the various individual hot weather testing methods, three gruelling tests are often employed by Kia’s vehicle test engineers, placing huge demand on the HVAC systems and the effects they have on engine and transmission cooling when used in the extreme
heat. The first of these tests is the up-hill climb, in which the vehicle is soaked in the midday sun for an hour to bring the cabin temperature over 50ºC (122ºF). The Sportage is then driven from sea level to almost 5,000 feet elevation through the aptly-named Furnace Creek area of Death Valley, a steady climb over 27 km at 100 km/h. The test is designed to ensure that the additional load placed on the engine has minimum impact on the car’s ability to cool itself and its occupants. The second test, the stopand-go drive, simulates typical conditions in a congested urban centre. Engineers drive the all-new Sportage at 40 km/h for two minutes through Furnace Creek, becontinued next page

Bugatti premieres its visionary Gran Turismo show car at IAA FRANKFURT, Germany – Bugatti has transformed its Bugatti Vision Gran Turismo from the virtual world of bytes and pixels into a real carbon-fibre racer especially for the 66th International Motor Show (IAA). In Frankfurt the French super sports car brand unveils the project that it has designed exclusively for the PlayStation video game franchise Gran Turismo to thank its millions of fans worldwide for their loyalty and enthusiasm. Following the sale of all 450 vehicles in the Veyron series, Bugatti Vision Gran Turismo marks a new chapter in the luxury brand's history that will culminate in the unveiling of the new Bugatti super sports car.

The Bugatti Vision Gran Turismo design pays homage to Bugatti's great racing tradition of the 1920s and 1930s, in particular its victories in the 24 Hours of Le Mans race, and is based on cutting-edge motor sport technology. At the same time the virtual project also previews Bugatti's future design language.
SAVINGS EVENT
The collaboration with Polyphony Digital, creator of Gran Turismo, allows Bugatti to make the highly exclusive brand available to fans, gamers and high-performance aficionados of all ages.

driveway Seven-millionth Honda vehicle built in Canada is donated to a worthy cause in support of scienceand engineering-based education, environment and family initiatives.
“For Honda, it’s more
than just building goodwill through participation in local programs or about being recognized as a good corporate citizen – it’s about building a better community.” The Honda Canada Foundation is committed to giving back to the communities where its associates and customers live, work and play and is involved with such programs as Earth Rangers Bring Back the Wild, Junior Red Riders, Let’s Talk Science, CP24 CHUM Christmas Wish, MakeA-Wish® Canada and the Ontario Science Centre.
Honda became the first Japanese automaker to manufacture cars in Canada in 1986 when the company opened the doors of its Alliston, Ontario plant. Since then, HCM has manufactured several models including the Honda Accord, Odyssey, Pilot and Ridgeline, as well as Acura EL, CSX and ZDX vehicles.
The plants currently build Honda CR-Vs and Civics, Canada’s best-selling passenger car for 17 consecutive years.
... and now 30 million on continent
Honda marked a major milestone recently as the company's eight auto plants in the United States, Canada and Mexico reached the 30 million mark in total automobile production.
Honda was the first Japanese automaker to begin production of automobiles in North America, starting in Marysville, Ohio, in 1982, and now operates in six facilities.
Canada’s only plant is located in Alliston, Ontario.

SODERQUIST, Arnold Leonard 1931 - 2015 It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our father, Arnold Leonard Soderquist. Arnold was born September 2, 1931 in Sexsmith, Alberta and died peacefully, surrounded by his family on Saturday, September 12, 2015 at Langley Hospice. Arnold was a quiet, hardworking, faithful man who was loved by all who knew him. He is survived by his beloved wife of 65 years, Janet. Arnold also leaves his children Linda, Ida (Jacob), and Victor, 8 grandchildren and 13 great-grandchildren. He is also survived by two sisters, Edna and Helen. Arnold was predeceased by a daughter, Eileen. The family would like to thank the staff of Maple Hospice for their wonderful care of both our father and the family during this difficult time. In lieu of flowers the family requests that all donations be made to the Langley Hospice. There was a private funeral on Friday, September 18. Our loss is Heaven’s gain.
ELLIOTT, James (Jim) Michael May 17, 1949 - Sept. 15, 2015 Jim passed away peacefully after a short battle with cancer. Jim is survived by his wife Donna of 41 years, children Corey and Lisa and grand-dog Charlie. Often called “Lucky Jim” by his friends for his uncanny ability to dominate most sports pools, those who knew and loved Jim know that they are the “lucky” ones to have known him and how he enriched all of our lives with his quick wit, integrity, and courage. A husband, a father, a best friend and hero - until we meet again. No service by request.
