State-of-the-art hall opens Fire chief calls $9.6-million facility near Boundary Bay Airport a game changer IAN JACQUES

i j a c q u e s @ d e l t a - o p t i m i s t .co m

It’s a game changer for the Delta Fire Department.

On Monday morning, the City of Delta unveiled a new fire hall and emergency operations centre during a ceremony attended by city officials, fire department personnel, dignitaries and members of the public.

Besides housing the fire department, the 12,739-square-foot building, located near the 80th Street overpass adjacent to the Boundary Bay Airport, also includes a post-disaster emergency operations centre, corporate training centre and state-of-the-art fire training facility.

Ground was broken on the $9.6-million project in April 2018 with the facility expected to be fully staffed and operational by June 11.

“Today it is time to celebrate the opening of this tremendous facility,” said Mayor George Harvie.

“Thanks to the dedication of our Delta police and fire departments, Delta is one of the safest places in Canada. To ensure that we maintain this high standard, I and Delta council recognize the importance of excellent training and having the best facilities possible.”

Harvie said when the project was started, it was important to Delta it be designed as a postdisaster operations centre that ensures Delta has the capability to manage all future emergencies.

“This facility provides

Fire Chief Paul Schofield (left) and Mayor George Harvie (second from right) are joined by councillors Dylan Kruger, Jeannie Kanakos, Dan Copeland and Lois Jackson at Monday’s official opening. a critical base from which emergency operations management response can be effectively implemented to ensure the highest level of emergency response for our Delta community,” added Harvie. “With this facility we are now prepared to respond more effectively to major community emergencies.”

Fire Chief Paul Schofield said from a training and operational standpoint, the new centre is a game changer.

The hall will consist of two bays with four apparatus, living quarters, training and emergency opera-

tions offices, and a stateof-the-art burn building.

Schofield said the hall will be staffed by four personnel 24/7 as well as emergency operations staff from the city.

“This facility offers enhanced training opportunities as firefighters will now be able to actively train while on shift,” he said. “It’s a unique hall because they are not only responsible for this area, but the rescue truck here will go to any major motor vehicle accidents on the highway. It’s going to be a very busy hall given its central location. The level of training here is some-

thing we have never been able to do before. It’s going to be a game changer for our firefighters.”

Inside the burn building there are live props, including a kitchen and a car. The facility is totally automated so with a few touches of a computer screen, virtually any scenario imaginable can be created.

“The hall itself is essentially a turn-key emergency operations centre, which is significant to the future of Delta’s emergency response plan capabilities,” Schofield said.

“This whole facility would not be here without Mayor

Harvie, former mayor Lois Jackson, former fire chief Dan Copeland and past and present Delta staff.”

The city paid for the project partly through increased property taxes over several years.

Finance director Karl Preuss told the Optimist in a previous interview that once the project was completed, the money that continues to be collected from taxpayers shifts to paying for the staffing and operation of the facility.

Schofield said 24 firefighters have been hired to staff the new hall and provide coverage at other halls.

Townhouse plan gets OK after 60 speak at hearing SANDOR GYARMATI

s g y a r m a t i @ d e l t a - o p t i m i s t .c o m

A controversial application to build 37 townhomes in a primarily single-family Tsawwassen neighbourhood received conditional approval from Delta council following a packed public hearing Monday evening.

Council voted 6-1 in favour with only Dan Copeland in opposition.

The majority of the over 60 speakers at the hearing at city hall spoke in favour of the development on consolidated parcels at the corner of 53rd Street and 8A Avenue, a proposal that’s gone through several revisions and has been winding its way through the civic approval process for a couple of years.

It was a familiar debate on the need to densify versus maintaining the character of single-family neighbourhoods. Most who spoke in favour reiterated the need for more affordable housing, especially for young people who want to remain in the community, and pointed

“I think the fit is good.

I think the need for townhouses in Tsawwassen is huge,” said one speaker.

There was plenty of back-and-forth on the affordability of the townhomes, with some saying $800,000 is too much for young people looking for their first home, while others said it’s relative compared to detached houses priced at well over $1 million.

get into the housing market,” said one speaker.

Many in opposition also spoke about traffic concerns and questioned the purpose of a community plan they fear can be easily amended with a developer’s land assembly.

“This will set a precedent and open up the floodgates to townhouses everywhere in Tsawwassen,” warned one resident.

However, a speaker in favour warned, “To believe change is not coming is myopic and will lead to bad planning in the future.”

Premier likes twin tunnel but questions remain SANDOR GYARMATI

s g y a r m a t i @ d e l t a - o p t i m i s t .c o m

It’s looking like there could be a solution sooner rather than later when it comes to congestion at the George Massey Tunnel — maybe.

Premier John Horgan last week pulled a bit of a surprise during a news conference by telling reporters a twin-tunnel proposal would get serious consideration by his government.

Horgan said he views the consensus among regional mayors as an opportunity to move quickly on a new crossing, although he wouldn’t provide any timeline.

Delta Mayor George Harvie, who formed the mayors’ group and is now on a new regional task force on the crossing, said he’ll seek information and clarification, noting he’s hoping the government’s mind isn’t already made up. He expressed concern about a lengthy environmental assessment that would come as a result of a twinning option.

His mayors’ group had

Liberal MLAs Jas Johal (left) and Ian Paton (right) hold a 60th birthday cake for the George Massey Tunnel with an unflattering message for the NDP government. put forward a proposal to the premier for a deep bore tunnel, something Delta South Liberal MLA Ian Paton raised in response to Horgan’s comment.

“The mayors were very clear: any replacement cannot touch the Fraser River, otherwise a lengthy federal environmental assessment would be triggered. That’s why they wanted to explore the option of a deep bore tunnel under the river bed — not a twinning of the existing tunnel as John Horgan is suggesting,” Paton said

in a statement.

RichmondQueensborough MLA Jas Johal said he suspects the premier’s comments were just another stall tactic.

Last Thursday to mark the 60th anniversary of the opening of the tunnel, Paton and Johal took part in a media event in Ladner, complete with a birthday cake, to lambaste Horgan’s government for killing the George Massey Tunnel Replacement Project, saying the bridge would have been well underway by now with a completion set for 2022.

With a perfect drive off the first tee and a pop of champagne, Beach Grove Golf Club kicked off its 90th anniversary last Friday afternoon.

Just before 12:30 p.m., club captain Lloyd Hikida hit a shot from the first tee to commemorate the first tee shot that created the Beach Grove Golf Club exactly 90 years ago to the day.

The 90th anniversary event also helped kick off four months of celebration activities and the launch of the club’s drive to 100 initiative to gain 100 new members by its 100th anniversary in 2029.

“We are committed to welcoming the entire community to our club,” said general manager Chris Hugill. “Golf is a game for the ages and we welcome all to join our club and enjoy the great game and the atmosphere of a private club that have become the social centre of the Beach Grove and Tsawwassen community.

Captain Lloyd Hikida hits a shot from the first tee to commemorate the first tee shot that created the Beach Grove Golf Club 90 years ago.

We take great pride in this role.”

Club president Dave Hamilton said to be a member you don’t have to necessarily be a golfer.

“As has been mentioned, we have a very strong and fun social network for South Delta residents,” said Hamilton.

“It was on this date in 1929 that Beach Grove Golf Club officially opened and on this date the first tee shot was struck, so it only seemed fitting to tee off

our start to the anniversary by having our club captain Lloyd Hikida to do the honour of repeating that shot that started our club.”

Built in 1929, Beach Grove has deep roots in Tsawwassen and the surrounding area.

Beach Grove is a championship layout, a par 71 course playing 6,200 yards from the back tees.

The course is filled with mature trees and boasts the truest greens in the Lower Mainland.

TED MURPHY

orgive me if I find John Horgan’s recent musings about a new Fraser River crossing a bit disingenuous.

Last week the premier suggested his NDP government could get going quite quickly on the project now that mayors and First Nations chiefs in the region have reached a consensus on what it should look like, fueling hope that a solution to the daily bottleneck at the now 60-year-old George Massey Tunnel isn’t as far away as some fear.

Yes, that was an encouraging bit of news, but exactly how serious is Horgan about quick action when his government is taking two years to study a situation that’s already been studied to death? His comments about another crossing were an off-the-cuff response to a question at an unrelated press conference, so it wasn’t like the premier was raising the issue on his own accord or, heaven forbid, actually announcing the government was doing something beyond just more study.

It’s a hopeful sign that he’s receptive to what regional politicians have proposed, but if he liked their idea so much why has he seemingly done nothing with it for the past two months? The mayors and chiefs sent Horgan a letter dated March 29 that advised him of the consensus they had reached and urged him to take action, a letter they made public a month later, presumably to apply some pressure given an underwhelming response from Victoria.

It’s more than a little ironic that the NDP, when in opposition, railed against the Liberals for not heeding local government input on the now-shelved 10-lane bridge project, but now that local government is in agreement, why isn’t that new crossing moving forward?

After the mayors and chiefs made their letter public, we figured that would expedite things, that a business case could be developed long before the fall of 2020, but a ministry response kept to the original timeline.

I guess what I’m struggling with is the NDP has maintained it would only build a crossing that meets with local government approval, but given it’s now got that, why must we wait another year-and-a-half for a plan to move this badly needed crossing forward?

Is it because the government isn’t keen to move quite as quickly as the premier wants us to believe?

Tsawwassen has catching up to do on home choice front

T

he housing crisis, especially in Metro Vancouver, may have given cause for the public to more carefully reflect on housing development applications in their communities.

I attended Monday’s public hearing on the Maple Leaf Homes application to build 37 townhomes across the street from South Delta Secondary on 8A Avenue.

Council chambers were full and overflow chairs were set up in the foyer of city hall.

As per usual, the issue of development stirs very real emotion on both sides of the ledger but I just got the sense that opposition to these perceived threats to the status quo may be waning just a little.

The no side built its case on traffic congestion in and around two school zones, the development would not fit with surrounding single-family homes and that density does not generally equate with affordability, whereas the yes side argued that housing form choice and general affordability were the issues.

Several speakers on the yes side also argued the site was well chosen and that its proximity to Winskill Park and the town centre would afford residents easy access to schools, recreational space, stores and services. If a developer is able to assemble properties in these situations, it just makes sense for builder and

Community Comment MIKE SCHNEIDER

buyer. Some no development folks suggested the site was random and some worried that density rezoning applications would start popping up everywhere in Tsawwassen.

This particular development application has been in the works for over two years.

Not Southlands or Tsawwassen Springs length, but long enough.

The application process is intense and can often hit several roadblocks along the way.

Maple Leaf has adapted to input from expert and diligent Delta staff who have clearly advised mayor and council appropriately for them to make a decision to pass third reading.

We often forget the Official Community Plan has to be a “living document” to keep our communities vibrant and sustainable.

Our governors have to recognize community need not only in the present, but more importantly, in the future.

Council’s decision to pass third

reading was certainly not an easy one but I must say that rookie councillors Alicia Guichon and Dylan Krueger gave the most eloquent and thought provoking expressions of support for the project. This was no accident.

They are engaged with the youth in our community (those that are still here or want to come back), and they represent the future of Delta.

Infill density projects are alive and well in Ladner and North Delta, but Tsawwassen has a lot of catching up to do. With 11 townhomes on the market locally in sunny town and two of them north of $1 million, the need for stock in the mid-range housing sector is clear.

A couple of no side speakers indicated that buying a townhome was a bad choice, insinuating that land footprint was the way to go to gain on your investment. These types of statements verge on discrimination. Every person or family deserves the opportunity to purchase any type of home they choose.

Unfortunately, there is not much to choose from in Tsawwassen and the granting of third reading to the Maple Leaf application is a promising indicator that maybe youth can have the chance to revitalize an aging community.

NewQUALITY and Exciting

NDP playing shell game when YOU CAN TASTE THE DIFFERENCE it comes to new river crossing

Editor: I am writing this letter because last Friday afternoon as I travelled north on Highway 17A I noticed the sign indicated travel time to Vancouver was 10 minutes. It took 40 minutes to get through the George Massey Tunnel alone.

There were no accidents — this was volume based on the fact five lanes of traffic had to merge into one lane. I guess the data from these signs must be where the premier is getting his biased information.

Last week those of us who live in South Delta were relieved to hear that Premier John Horgan announced the twinning of the tunnel would be fast tracked to relieve a totally unacceptable situation.

I have read the Cowdell

Report and I don’t see where it clearly recommends this is the best option. The report outlines a number of possible solutions based on different scenarios. Perhaps the premier was suggesting this was the best solution based upon cost only.

Also, months ago, the premier indicated improvements would commence immediately to the existing tunnel. If they were done, they were not significant enough to be noticed.

Oddly, the mayors in the Vancouver region had recently agreed (as reported in the media) that the best option was a deep bore tunnel of eight lanes.

This is likely more expensive than the previously proposed bridge.

The premier has suggested twinning the exist-

ing tunnel but there will need to be more study.

What a surprise. Has the premier not noticed the suggested tunnel would be built in a marine environment which would require countless studies, probably delaying the project for several years? That gives the premier an opportunity to suggest that any delays are based upon the environmental studies and not government inaction.

This whole situation is a monumental shell game designed to make it look like the government is doing something when in fact it is doing nothing.

Our best hope is when the next election comes along, the people in South Delta remember this fiasco. We can be sure there will be no significant progress by then.

Dog locates lost boy on Ladner trail

Editor: My miniature schnauzer Matty and I were fortunate enough to be walking the trails off Ferry Road when we met a lady who alerted us of a missing boy last Thursday.

After continuing our walk for about 15 minutes, my subconscious took over as there was a small trail that Matty had run into earlier but I didn’t follow as it was a bit overgrown. Thinking back as to why she had picked that trail, I doubled back, encountering a police officer and who I believe was a caregiver that were look-

ing for the boy.

I was able to find that trail and she ran into it immediately again so I followed and there in a clearing by the river was the boy. After calling out that we had found him, the caregiver was able to follow my voice and all ended with the boy unhurt and safe.

The caregiver had asked me to meet them at the beginning of the trails but I was just happy that Matty and I could help and we went on our way.

Matty has been welcomed by St. John’s Ambulance’s therapy team

to be part of its program and will be evaluated in August after she turns two years old. The reason for this letter is that after talking to a girlfriend who is a vet she thought that maybe Matty could be somehow useful with autistic kids and I was wondering if there was any way that I could get in contact with the caregivers of this boy to see if I could arrange something where Matty could meet some of these children, if for nothing else but training for her for the therapy dog program.

Editor: Having provided the panel reviewing the Terminal 2 proposal with evidence of actions that have caused reprehensible damage to the mother of all aquatic and wildfowl life on the Fraser River watershed and estuary, I ask that it not allow the construction of T2 as it will be the fatal blow to

the ability of the mother to continue to give birth to all aquatic and birdlife in the Fraser River estuary and beyond to the Salish Sea. The only alternative is to call for a moratorium on any further developments on the Fraser River estuary that will alter the migration of salmon that is the food source of the orcas and livelihood of many,

and require a full environmental and hydrological study to determine the effects of past and future industrial proposals.

Further, an economic study be done to determine the present and future value of retaining the life of the Fraser River as a fish and wildlife producer.

Crash on Highway 17 brings out the best in people

Editor: A single-car mishap on Highway 17 westbound last Tuesday afternoon saw a lone car, axle broken, windshield smashed, no one around, except one man squeezed between car and concrete divider, obviously comforting the occupants, and a woman

to the rear of the car balanced on the same concrete divider waving her arms like crazy and pointing to the oncoming traffic to move to the right, all the while without falling off herself.

Delta firefighters came to the rescue a few minutes later.

We all hope occupants of car are OK, but “bouquets” to the woman, the man and our Delta firefighters.

A true working example of the importance, and meaning of, “love your neighbour as you love yourself.”

Craft brewery brings a community together

Four Winds could make that happen on Southlands if opponents can get over ‘industrial’ concerns Editor: I recently completed my master’s thesis at the University of Toronto in landscape architecture on the relationship between craft beer, sustainability and community (as reflected through and facilitated by the landscape). Through my research, I discovered countless examples of breweries in the Lower Mainland and across B.C. which are enhancing community through both social and economic means.

Craft breweries afford the opportunity to facilitate connection between local businesses and compound benefits.

I first noticed this in 2013 at 33 Acres Brewing in Vancouver — serving their own fresh beer brewed in-house but also serving baked goods from local bakery Nelson the Seagull, coffee from local roaster Matchstick, chocolates from Vancouverbased Beta 5, jerky from BKH up the street on Fraser, etc.

It was truly a cooperative endeavour that reflected the skilled producers across the city. In the tasting room, local creatives mixed with industrial workers and young families, and lately more retirees during the quieter daytime hours. I should note this same dynamic exists at Four Winds’ current Tilbury location despite its distance from any significant population.

This trend also remains true in more rural areas, taking, for example, Persephone Brewing out of

Gibsons on the Sunshine Coast. Brewing out of a farmhouse/barn and using their own hops and produce to make their goods, they draw in members of the local community and visitors alike.

Their tasting room is a cross-section of society where you’ll find elderly folks around a game of crokinole sitting beside a group of young cyclists taking a refreshment break in their weekend ride, while neighbours run into each other filling up their glass growlers with the latest fresh offering — a point of pride in their community.

I was told once by an owner at Townsite Brewing in Powell River that if one wants to bring a community together all they’d need to do is open a craft brewery. The unique flavours and freshlycrafted pints attract tourists and those with refined or experimental palates, yet the competitive price point and the home-grown success story draws in those who would normally drink macro-produced lagers such as Budweiser or Molson Canadian.

The benefits also spill out from the brewery into the public realm - as can be seen in “Brewers’ Row” in Port Moody. The breweries entice members of the community to take an outing, but the neighbouring park becomes filled with people socializing and hanging out. This can clearly be offered as a parallel for Southlands with its proximity to Centennial Beach, in addition to the small-scale retail bou-

tiques also soon located in Southlands.

Craft beer transcends the social and cultural boundaries often associated with upper echelon consumable products like wine and gourmet dining.

The best beer in the world is affordable to all as conveniently demonstrated

by Four Winds, who won Canadian Brewery of the Year in 2015 and many awards since while still having more affordable fare than any top-tier cocktail bar in the city.

Winds proposal and the zoning variance, I truly think the negative response was uninformed and ultimately irresponsible. Fear-mongering over the word “industrial” in the zoning designation conjured exaggerated imaginations of what the brewery would entail — and this was left to run amok.

A quote in the Optimist from Coun. Jeannie Kanakos suggests a misunderstanding of the nature of brewing beer at the craft

FILE IMAGE

A proposal to relocate Four Winds Brewing to the Southlands was narrowly defeated by Delta council in April.

A craft brewery is perhaps the most suitable “Third Place” (a term coined by Ray Oldenburg as an alternative place to home and work) for a community, performing as an anchor and focal point for people to spend time with others. The significance of this “Third Place” in Southlands is only amplified by its relationship to a nearby public square, allowing for connection between people regardless of whether they are a patron or not.

In regards to the Four

scale. It’s hard to imagine using the word “manufacturing” to describe baking pastries or making chocolate in this size of facility.

The size of this proposed brewery is in line with the breweries noted earlier and many others that are compatible with their residential neighbours — a far cry from the scale of the Molson factory historically on display at the foot of the Burrard Bridge in Vancouver.

The “industrial” part of the operation involves little more than steeping

and boiling a combination of grains and hops, producing smells for a short period that can be morelikened to baked goods and fruits than the manure used on the neighbouring fields. The fermentation that follows is essentially odourless. All these smells are easily mitigated anyhow, which appears to be the plan in this proposal.

As for the concerns surrounding the proportion of commercial square footage used in the proposal compared to the overall allotment in the Southlands plan, I can hardly imagine a better complement for the town square or a more stable anchor to provide a steady flow of clientele to the smaller boutiques composing the rest of the commercial space in the Southlands.

Delta’s professional planning staff vocalized support, and I trust that to get to this stage in the process they have done their research on this proposal’s suitability and logistics within the Southlands vision regarding traffic and noise.

Four Winds will, without any doubt, be a reason for people to visit Tsawwassen. People will travel from across the Lower Mainland and further to spend a day (and their money) at the beach and local businesses which they might otherwise plan to spend in another community. Four Winds is already a point of pride in the community, which I think you may underestimate the reach of. I can’t recall how many

times I voice with pride to my friends that Four Winds is from my hometown. They often cite it as their favourite beer and tell me they’d love to pay a visit until they learn that it’s in Tilbury and not close to anything else.

I’ve seen a beer hall in Toronto fill during one of Four Winds’ “tap takeovers” with people craving to try their nationallyacclaimed beer. I was so proud of home.

The Southlands neighbourhood, especially with the potential of having Four Winds in it, holds tremendous appeal with young families who moved out of Delta but entertain the thought of moving back to raise their family.

There is no question that Tsawwassen is an aging population. The question becomes whether it is worth sacrificing the future appeal of Southlands to meet the desires of a demographic that likely won’t be able to live in it once it’s built out?

I truly don’t believe those opposed represent Delta. I do believe that the majority of people held the belief that Four Winds in Southlands was such a reasonable and worthy idea that they didn’t need to fight for it. We didn’t think it would come to this.

The supporting petitions, outcry on social media and discussions within my family/peers would suggest that people were surprised they would have to fight for something so worthwhile. I know I was.

Opinion

MP hopeful act addresses unequal treatment

Born legally blind, Carla Qualtrough knows barriers facing many Canadians with disabilities

MP’s Report

CARLA QUALTROUGH

This week is National AccessAbility Week: a time to raise awareness of the real barriers to inclusion that many Canadians with disabilities face on an ongoing basis, and a time to acknowledge the countless individuals and organizations that work tirelessly in our communities to ensure all Canadians have equal opportunities.

This week the House of Commons will also take an important step to address in law the historical unequal treatment of our citizens with disabilities by passing Bill C-81,

the Accessible Canada Act. In my opinion, this will be the most significant advancement in disability rights since the charter, and it has been a great honour to have played a role in its creation.

The Accessible Canada Act recognizes that disability can be visible or invisible, permanent or temporary, congenital or acquired.

It also recognizes that barriers to inclusion come in many forms, and can be found in our systems, our laws, our policies and our attitudes.

The act seeks to proactively identify and remove these barriers, paving the way for a fundamental shift in how we talk about and perceive disability in our country.

As a person with a disability, I appreciate what a game changer this will be.

I was born legally blind, with only 10 per cent corrected vision. Quite frankly, I was born into a world that wasn’t built for me — one where people were

going to make assumptions my whole life about what I can and cannot do.

My disability can often be invisible. It isn’t always apparent how little I can see, especially in bright light, when I am functionally totally blind. As a public figure, this can be challenging. I cannot see faces and I cannot read nametags. I cannot see people across a room, and would not notice somebody waving to me or trying to make eye contact. It takes me quite a while to recognize someone, based on a whole bunch of other clues, such as voice, body shape, hair colour and gait.

I have had to do my job as MP very differently. It quickly became apparent to me that I would have to be candid and open about my disability, something that hadn’t always come easy to me.

With the Accessible Canada Act, it is my hope more Canadians with disabilities will choose to run for office. And in this

STOP THE STINK

Environmental Appeal Board hearing on permit for malodourous composter starts next week Ian Jacques ijacques@delta-optimist.com

Stop the Stink campaign spokesperson Peggy Richardson speaks at a public meeting organized by residents last August.

T

he residents of East Ladner are not taking it on the nose anymore.

Fed up with battling putrid odours from the Green for Life/Enviro-Smart food and garden waste composting facility on 72nd Street, nearby homeowners are ramping up their campaign to finally stop the stink.

In recent months, the website Ourladner.net was created to enhance the Stop the Stink campaign and residents continue their social media blitz to draw public awareness to an issue that has negatively impacted the area for more than a decade.

Spokesperson for the Stop the Stink campaign, East Ladner resident Peggy Richardson says the smell is only a symptom of a larger problem that began back in 2004.

Richardson says their quality of life has been impacted as residents have been unable to enjoy their backyards, open windows or invite others to their homes. Property values have also been hit by the obnoxious odour, she says.

“There is a distinct difference between normal farm smells and the putrid smell emanating from the recycling of food and garden waste at this facility,” says Richardson. “The residents of East Ladner remain steadfast in their pursuit of clean air.”

Richardson says residents agree that composting is good for the earth as long as it’s done in a responsible way that does not do further environmental damage or create a nuisance or possible health risk. “In our research, however, we’ve noted a historical lack of government

interest in actually enforcing the not insignificant environmental laws we already have,” she says.

“We all agree that composting is very important in that it recycles organic matter and nutrients, allowing them to be returned to the soil. If done correctly, we should expect minimal odour during the composting process.”

Air quality permit

The previous owner of the facility was advised to obtain an air quality permit in 2007 and specifically requested to do so by Metro Vancouver in 2013. For reasons unknown to residents, the City of Delta did not require an air quality permit

when it renewed its service agreement with Enviro-Smart for taking residential food waste in 2016 just before the operation was sold to GFL. As the smells increased in the summer of 2016 and into 2017, so too did the complaints with calls in the hundreds to Metro Vancouver as well as calls, emails and letters demanding action from city hall.

After several public information meetings held by Metro Vancouver as well as one by GFL, Metro began the process of issuing an air quality permit that was finally granted to GFL last August.

When the permit was granted, many in East

May 30, 2019 The Delta Optimist A13 Ladner filed appeals to the Environmental Appeal Board, arguing the permit does not adequately protect residents from air pollutants. GFL also appealed the permit on the grounds it is too strict and not financially advantageous.

The Optimist requested comment from GFL, but a company spokesperson declined interview requests.

“In light of how close we are to the hearing related to our appeal of the air permit we are not doing interviews,” Jennifer Ahluwalia, GFL’s vice president of environmental responsibility and sustainability, stated in an email to the Optimist.

Richardson says air contaminants from facilities such as Enviro-Smart are an issue in many jurisdictions where business interests conflict with the safe environment needs of local citizens.

“In the Enviro-Smart situation, the current air quality permit issued is weak in keeping GFL accountable for how it pollutes the air, and when,” she says. “For example, potential odour releases An artist’s rendering of the proposed enclosed facility that GFL is building. during the outdoor curing, storage for volume in and volume out, there is a big McGill. “I understand that we have had some and screening are not adequately addressed possibility that they will need more farmland, differences of opinion on this as well as the in the permit.

We don’t know, but if it does and “We clearly need to do something betif there is more material, based on formulas ter and that is enclosing the facility,” says It was a standing room-only crowd as residents packed an information meeting they called last summer.

According to ALC CEO Kim Groat, because the site is on the Agricultural Land Reserve, GFL must use 50 per cent of its finished product on farmland.

Groat adds the facility does comply with ALC regulations.

“From our perspective, the ALC is the regulator,” says McGill. “I think people forget that Delta reached out to them [ALC] and said here are our concerns and they came back and said that Enviro-Smart is in compliance. We can only deal within the legislation or the regulations that we have and a very big piece of this process was understanding where the ALC was on this issue.”

Delta South MLA Ian Paton has written letters on behalf of residents to the ALC and the Ministry of Environment as well as had several meetings with ministry staff and the minister. He says he sympathizes with the residents and what they’ve had to endure.

“Because it is a farm and it is in the ALR, composting and storage is allowed so they are complying with the rules that are in place,” says Paton. “I know this is not what residents want to hear, and as much as people are upset, the best thing that could happen is GFL investing $23 million for the total enclosure. I think that is the best anyone can ask for.”

Despite what the ALC says, residents still feel that Delta, Metro Vancouver and the province are more interested in protecting GFL than their own residents.

“Why does it appear that the ALC stands idly by when it seems intuitively obvious that there is far too much compost being produced than can be utilized by the crops growing on this farm? Why is there not adequate oversight by the ALC, the Ministry of Environment, the City of Delta or Metro Vancouver? When does an international waste management facility become a farm?” asks Richardson.

“I know that government works slowly, but all these years that we have been dealing with this, this is less than a snail’s pace. Do we feel let down?

Yes, absolutely.”

Brian King of GFL addresses the crowd at a public meeting in November of 2017.

Julia, a 13-year-old short-haired tabby, has been in care at the Delta Community Animal Shelter for more than 600 days. The shelter is continuing its public appeal to find her a forever home. why Julia hasn’t found her forever home,” said shelter manager Ryan Voutilainen. “She’s 13 years old, which is senior for a cat, but she’s playful and affectionate once she gets to know you, and she’s perfectly healthy and polite.”

Voutilainen notes that while shelter care is excellent, and Julia gets lots of attention from staff and volunteers, it’s still no replacement for a loving forever family to give her the life she deserves.

“Our shelter was never intended to replace the comfort and stability of a real home,” added Voutilainen. “Julia just

needs someone to give her a chance.”

Staff and volunteers have been trying hard to find Julia her forever home. In a stroke of public relations genius, they have developed a publicity campaign around her unfortunate milestone, including proclaiming every Thursday as Julia Day. The campaign has even featured a special Q&A with Julia for “Catelaine” magazine, in which Julia describes, among other things, her biggest pet peeve (when her breakfast is a few minutes late), her relationship status (she’s lived with dogs and cats

“She’s becoming famous like her other namesakes — Julia LouisDreyfus, Julia Child, Julia Stiles, Julia Roberts — so her new family, whoever they are, should know they have a star on their hands,” said Voutilainen, who credits shelter staff for their creativity in raising Julia’s profile.

Anyone interested in Julia can visit the shelter online or on Facebook.

Voutilainen asks that even if you can’t adopt Julia, consider sharing the Facebook posts about her.

Suspicious phone call turns out to be from a good Samaritan South Delta Crime Beat

The purpose of the Crime Beat is to educate and inform the public about some of the property crime trends occurring in South Delta and other files of interest. If you see anything occurring that you believe to be suspicious, call 911 for inprogress crimes and emergencies or 604-946-4411 for other assistance.

The following are some of the calls the Delta police responded to in the previous week:

TSAWWASSEN

All parties denied racing and stated they were members of a car meet.

All drivers were cautioned against street racing or stunting. All parties were cooperative and sent on their way.

• May 21, 6:18 p.m.: Complainant reported that unknown suspects stole four Michelin winter tires from the parking garage.

The tires were stacked in the complainant’s park-

ing stall for an extended period of time. The garage is not secure.

• May 24 evening, various locations: Police dealt with a number of calls related to intoxicated youths, and youths causing a disturbance, including two instances of consensual fights (no injuries). Police seized liquor and contacted parents on a number of occasions to take care of their children.

• May 25, 8:19 p.m.: Complainant called police saying he had received a suspicious phone call from a man asking if someone with a different last name resided at his residence. The call was later determined to be a good Samaritan who had located a Nexus card and had been attempting to Google phone numbers for people associated with that name in an attempt to return the card. Nothing suspicious.

Caution urged after reports of aggressive marketers Delta police are urging residents to exercise caution following a recent increase in door-to-door marketers.

According to a news release, DPD has received at least five complaints since March 1 of a company going door-to-door, primarily in Ladner, purporting to sell a product

related to air quality. Often the sales staff will try and ask residents to respond to a survey on air quality.

Police have spoken with canvassers and have determined it is a legitimate company, albeit with high pressure sales tactics. The company has been warned by police not to be so aggressive in its marketing,

as it is causing concern among local residents and attracting police complaints.

“Should someone come to your door — whether it’s a salesperson or someone trying to collect personal information – remember you have no obligation to respond to any questions,” said DPD

Say hello to Jethro

Jethro is a nine year old male Jack Russell terrier mix weighing about 20lbs. He was given up when his owner got sick and could no longer manage. Jethro LOVES people including young children. He loves playing with other dogs and we feel a home with another dog (or two!) would be very beneficial to him. Jethro is good with cats, too! He likes car rides, long walks, longer naps, sniffing absolutely everything, suntanning, and doing squirrel and bird patrol.

He’s a real cuddler but also sleeps in his own bed. His ideal situation would include someone who works from home or can take Jethro to work with them. My foster mom says I am an amazing boy and anyone would be lucky to have me part of their family! He’s neutered, house trained, up to date on all vaccines and recently had a full dental! If you think Jethro is a good match for you, please email pbandchi@gmail.com for more info.

The typical way to respond to the moments that are wonderful is to soak it up, immerse ourselves in it fully and desire that this would be the normal way of life.

BlinDS on Sale

Acts 1:1-11 Guest Pastor: Len Batterink

The possible responses to the moments that are terrible could be to find ourselves frozen in disbelief and unable to effectively respond, react in aggressive manners, or experience fear and a desire to flee.

These are all typical human responses. The challenge before us always is to be able to celebrate and honour the value of each person and in the hard times to allow our love for one another to carry us through the turmoil into resolution.

This is life. Yes, it can be messy but it is able to be balanced by joy if we hold to our commitment to “… Love one another. As I (Jesus) have loved you…”

Ladner’s Memorial Park will be alive with the sounds of concert bands this weekend.

The 15th annual Ladner Bandfest, presented by Ladner-based Delta Music Makers, offers free concerts in the park from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday.

The festival will feature 19 bands from throughout the Lower Mainland and beyond that will perform 40-minute concerts on a pair of stages in the park.

The weekend culminates with a performance by the Naden Band of the Royal Canadian Navy at 4:40 p.m. on Sunday.

Unique this year is the presence of several military-style bands, including the Westies from the Royal Westminster Regiment, the British Columbia Regiment Band from Vancouver, the Retired Naval Veterans and the Naden Band of the Royal Canadian Navy from Esquimalt.

Ladner Bandfest is backed by a strong committee led by band mem-

“One of the things that happens is other bands hear about the Ladner Bandfest and they want to be a part of this great event,” said Jantzen, founder and music director of the Delta Music Makers.

“We have always based our registrations on first come, first served. This year we have a longer waiting list. It’s a great event and these bands love to come and watch the other bands as well.

We are certainly doing

something right. It should be a great weekend of music.”

Those planning to attend are encouraged to bring lawn chairs and picnic baskets to enjoy oldfashioned concerts in the park. Food services will be provided by TOOB, who will have a heathier menu this year to go along with their signature curly fries, burgers, and hotdogs.

Filmmaker is taking it to another level Ladner’s Jason Mills excited for world premiere of Second World War tale IAN JACQUES

i j a c q u e s @ d e l t a - o p t i m i s t .co m

Independent Ladner filmmaker Jason Mills is gearing up for the world premiere of his latest project.

Beyond The Line, his ninth film, will be shown next week at the Cinematheque Theatre in Vancouver before a worldwide release on June 28.

Beyond The Line tells the story of a British soldier, shot down from his plane over enemy territory during the Second World War, who is saved by an American soldier. The soldiers must then work together as they face their common enemy to make it back to friendly territory.

“From my last film to this film it is now at another level — a professional level,” said Mills, who directed, wrote and produced the film. “Even though the other films were released everywhere, this one will go big. It’s very exciting.”

“The movie takes place at the end of the war, so it’s about the German soldiers who didn’t surrender and are still fighting and our two main characters have to fight their way home,”

he said. “I love this genre and love war movies.

Saving Private Ryan is one of my favourite movies, so I drew a lot of influence and inspiration from that.

“That movie really draws you in. Obviously you don’t have the same budget that they did, but I did all of the costumes and we have some great CGI

and I wanted to have a great authentic feel and we have all of that.”

Mills said he is excited for the premiere and then the world-wide release.

“I went to the American Film Market in Los Angeles. I took two of my movies and I just wanted to see what was out there,” Mills said. “I dropped the

trailer for Beyond The Line with Vision Films and I didn’t think anything would come of it, but immediately they wanted to get involved, which is really rare for an independent filmmaker like myself.

“They ended up emailing me like six times, so I went back in there, we

had a good meeting and we ended up coming to a deal. It’s exciting. I’ve been doing this for 10 years.

I create films in a real unique way, which is getting noticed.”

While working on his own projects, Mills continues to give back to his craft by teaching the next generation of filmmakers at the Delta Film Academy.

He also has another documentary called Big Foot Girls set for release that has garnered interest from Netflix.

The premiere for Beyond The Line is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday, June 4.

COMMUNITY NOTICE Annual Vegetation Management Program CN is required to clear its rights-of-way from any vegetation that may pose a safety hazard. Vegetation on railway rights-of-way, if left uncontrolled, can contribute to trackside fires and impair proper inspection of track infrastructure.

As such, for safe railway operations, the annual vegetation control program will be carried out on CN rail lines in the province of British Columbia. A certified applicator will be applying herbicides on and around the railway tracks (mainly the graveled area/ballast).

All product requirements for setbacks in the vicinity of dwellings, aquatic environments and municipal water supplies will be met.

Having received confirmation of CN’s PMP, we expect that the program will take place from June 1, 2019 to September 15, 2019.

Trinity Community Choir takes the stage at Ladner United Church this Sunday in the popular Sunday @3 concert series.

Sunday @3 concert series in Ladner welcomes Trinity Community Choir

The Trinity Community Choir hits the stage this Sunday in the popular Sunday @3 concert series at Ladner United Church.

In addition to great music at the 3 p.m. concert, artist Linda Anderson will be on hand with a small showcase of her work.

The Trinity Community Choir started out as a church choir centered at Trinity Community Lutheran Church in Point Roberts. Under the direction of Natasha Neufeld, the choir supported the

Sunday services at the church.

In 2010, the choir evolved into a community choir with members from Tsawwassen, Ladner, Surrey as well as Point Roberts.

The choir traditionally has two seasons, fall and spring.

In the fall season, it sings both religious and secular songs of the Christmas season, culminating in a concert in December.

In the spring, it sings mostly secular songs with

concerts in June.

The spring concerts have a variety of themes.

The two most recent concerts were titled Cole Porter and Friends and Celtic Rhapsodies. This spring, the theme is music from stage and screen.

The choir practices on Thursdays at 6:30 p.m. at St. David’s Anglican Church in Tsawwassen.

It’s an un-auditioned choir that welcomes all people who enjoy singing.

Tickets for the Sunday @3 concert are $10 at the door.

Photography and storytelling are two art forms that have immense power to shape how we see ourselves and transform lives.

The opening reception will take place at Stir Coffee House this Saturday from 6:30 to 9:30 p.m. It is a free event open to anyone.

The pieces will remain at Stir Coffee House for some time and will then be put on display in local businesses.

Canadians are poised to celebrate Environment Week from June 2 to 8, marking three globally important days in the process.

Environment Week in Canada is always celebrated during the week of June 5, which the United Nations has adopted as World Environment Day. Environment Week also includes Clean Air Day and World Oceans Day. World Environment Day is the UN’s most impor-

tant day for encouraging worldwide awareness and action for the protection of our environment. Since it began in 1974, it is now celebrated in over 100 countries.

The idea for Environment Week in Canada emerged in 1970 when former prime minister John Diefenbaker noted the “tremendous energy, enthusiasm and initiative” of young people concerned about pollution. Diefenbaker

approached the House of Commons with the concept of setting one week a year aside to focus on environmental issues.

Later that same year, MP Tom Goode from Delta pursued Diefenbaker’s idea by introducing a bill to designate a Canadian National Pollution Awareness Week. To draw attention to all aspects of a healthy environment, the name Canadian National Environment Week was chosen.

Environment Week

There are all kinds of ways to go green on daily basis

People may wonder what they can do at a local level to make Environment Week a larger part of their lives.

Here are just a few great ways to embrace it: • Make a point to bike or walk to school or work.

If conditions are prohibitive, carpool to cut down on traffic. The fewer cars on the road, the less emissions in the air.

• Recycle e-waste in your home. E-waste is considered outdated electronic appliances that are no longer used. E-waste is considered the fastest growing waste stream in the world.

• Invest in a reusable coffee cup or water bottle. This can reduce the amount of trash that ultimately ends up in the environment.

• Connect with nature by turning off electronics for the day and getting outside. Head to a park or nature trail and immerse yourself in the great outdoors.

• Do something as

The Province of BC is the first regional government in the world to actively provide a mechanism to measure carbon reduction, using Trenchless Technology.

Trenchless technologies are viable and proven methods to install, repair and replace pipes with many advantages over open cut methods.

Picking up trash in public spaces in your community is just one way to embrace the ideals of Environment Week. simple as switching paper statements and bills to e-bills and online invoices.

This reduces reliance on trees for new sources of paper.

• Grow some edibles in your home garden or even on a windowsill. This is a fun, eco-friendly way to control the foods you consume at home and a great way to save money as well.

• Reusing and recycling

does not just pertain to water bottles and aluminum cans. Find out ways to repurpose or share items with others so they get more mileage.

• Volunteer your time at an organization that has an environmental focus.

Or suggest a task with an eco-friendly slant, like picking up trash from a beach, to a local community group or club.

Early in 2019 final approval has been granted to use the Carbon Calculator, a tool developed by the Nastt-BC that allows for the calculation of carbon savings using trenchless over open cut methods.

BARBARA GUNN

PUBLIC INFORMATION MEETING Hunter Road Apartment Building Proposal You are invited to a Public Information Meeting hosted by the City of Delta to learn and ask questions about a proposed 40-unit, 4-storey apartment development at 1217, 1225, 1235, 1237 and 1243 Hunter Road (see location map below).

Meeting Date: Wednesday, June 5, 2019 Time: 5:00 pm – 7:30 pm Location: South Delta Recreation Centre (Hall A) 1720 56 Street, Delta

Location Map

This year, in a bid to jumpstart my garden, I decided to start a journal.

A journal, I thought, would keep me focused and help me go where I want to go.

I got one with some pretty flowers on the cover.

Pretty flowers, I thought, would keep me focused and help me go where I want to go.

This is how it looks so far.

Day 1: Hello, pretty journal! I am pumped! I went to the nursery today and got some lovely flowers! I have no idea what they’re called, but they’re sure to perk up the property!

Day 2: Hello, pretty journal. Today, I went to the shed and pulled out last year’s flowerpots. Some of them had spiders in them, so I got the husband to haul them out and hose them down.

Day 3: Hi, pal. It rained today so I stayed inside and watched five back-toback episodes of Love It or List It. Four of the homeowners decided to Love It. Day 4: Hi. Got some potting soil this morning and filled the pots. Put flowers in them. I can’t lift them, so I’ll have to wait until the husband returns from the driving range. (Note to self: Next year, position the pots where you want them before filling them with dirt.)

Day 6: Pots are still in the middle of the back yard because the husband was pricing drivers yesterday and I was gorging on nachos.

Day 8: Watered plants today. (Note to self: do this more often than once a week.)

Day 11: Pots have been

positioned on the deck and beside the front door.

Unfortunately, there are now yellow spots on the grass where they’d been since I filled them with mud. I mean, potting soil.

Day 13: Bought a hanging basket today. It has yellow and red things in it. The husband informed me it cost as much as six sleeves of balls. I don’t know what to make of that.

Day 17: Tried to water the hanging basket today, but the hose went haywire and kicked dirt all over my shorts. I think hanging baskets should be positioned no more than three feet off the ground so they’re easier to water.

Day 21: Officially decided not to put in a veggie garden this year.

Day 26: Hi, J. Flowers are looking straggly. Realize our property will never make the annual garden tour. Couldn’t care less.

Day 31: What? It’s almost June? Time for a small vacation, I say.

This gardening thing is exhausting.

Retirees Among Those To Benefit From New Hearing Aid Try newly released hearing aids ideal for the modern lifestyle: full surround sound, plenty of power, & no more feedback! ‡

Application File Number: LU008359 Applicant: Wesley Wollin, BURO47 Architecture Inc. Additional information on the application (File No. LU008359) can be found on Delta’s website: www.delta.ca/hunterroad www.delta.ca/hunterroad Have questions or comments?

Just weeks ago, a brand new hearing aid line was released to the public and it’s transforming the hearing experience for its wearers.

Most hearing aids deal with background noise using directional microphones that focus only right in front of you--like blinders for your ears.

No more! These new hearing aids process signals so exceptionally fast, they handle sound from all directions—greatly improving your ability to hear and comprehend speech, even in noisy environments.

Most hearing aids have to reduce gain (amplification strength) to avoid causing feedback. Not these! These

new hearing aids eliminate obnoxious screeching and whistling before it even starts—while maintaining necessary gain.

Connecting to your modern lifestyle is easy! Make hands-free calls from your smartphone, or stream audio from your phone, stereo, TV, or other Bluetooth® enabled devices.

These can even be purchased with a rechargeable lithium-ion battery option.

Yes, the future of hearing is here and it sounds better than ever. Call now to try these hearing aids for yourself!

Seniors Week

All three centres to celebrate Seniors Week McKee, KinVillage and Kennedy will acknowledge the role seniors play in our community

Seniors Week celebrates seniors and their many contributions, providing an opportunity to acknowledge the integral part they play in communities across the province.

Seniors Week will be recognized in Delta from June 3 to 8.

The City of Delta operates, in partnership with the volunteers of the McKee House Seniors Society, the McKee Seniors Recreation Centre in Ladner as well the Kennedy Seniors Recreation Centre in North Delta with the volunteers of Kennedy Seniors Society.

The other facility for seniors in South Delta is KinVillage Community Centre, which is part of KinVillage and is independently owned and operated by the KinVillage Association, a not-forprofit society.

All of the centres have a variety of events and activities planned next week, including information displays, workshops, guest speakers and recreational opportunities.

In 2020, McKee will celebrate its 15th year in Ladner.

“We have more than 100 volunteers. They

are the pulse of McKee,” said McKee Seniors Society president Ben Branscombe. “This is a second home for a lot of seniors who live here.

They live alone, they have no family around – they come here every day for coffee, classes and to socialize and meet people.

That’s what makes this building successful.”

Branscombe said McKee is always interested in having people volunteer. They look for people who are excited to serve the community, dependable and commit to their scheduled times, look for variety of cultures, experiences and hidden talents and past experience working with board of directors and non-profit organizations.

“It’s an opportunity to make new friends, socialize, have fun and, most important, you can help make a difference in the community,” he said.

Areas of need include: the café, special events, front desk and advanced computer knowledge. Just come in and visit the centre to find out more.

Tsawwassen’s KinVillage was conceived by local citizens wanting to provide a safe, supportive

support all the programs and events the centre offers.

“We have daily activities and some nightly ones as well,” he said. “Our membership numbers have remained consistent over the years.

“Volunteers are Kennedy’s life blood. We couldn’t open up the doors in the morning

without them.”

Volunteers have to be over 50 and a Kennedy member. The centre is currently looking for volunteer support in the Café Eighty Ate and at the customer service desk.

Training is provided. If you like people and want to give back to your community, drop by the centre to find out more.

There will be all kinds of activities taking place at Delta’s three seniors centres during Seniors Week, which will be celebrated June 3 to 8. environment for older adults to live, thrive and belong. While it has grown since the original model, KinVillage continues as a community-based nonprofit society supported by multiple levels of government that helps to enrich the lives of those they serve.

“I think the people who come to KinVillage Community Centre really appreciate the wide range of programs and events we offer, but really the reason I think they come is they want to feel a part of the community,” said CEO Donna Ellis.

“We, of course, have a

large number of people that live in KinVillage as well and they really view the community centre as a place where they can go and interact with others from the community.

Everything in our community centre is about connection and socializing with people. Community is really one of the things we value here and I think that’s what attracts people.”

Kennedy Seniors Society president Rick Stonehouse said the centre has 1,200 members with more than 100 who volunteer.

Alongside Delta staff, these volunteers run and

Four weeks from the May 6 birth of Archie

Harrison MountbattenWindsor to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, organizers of St. David’s Big Lunch will again roll out the red, white and blue in recognition of another Royal occasion.

While the celebratory decorated cake is being cut, Hamilton Street musicians will play the lullaby its pianist Strauss Whiteside — classical and

jazz pianist and composer — has added to the quartet’s program of ’20s, ’30s and ’40s tunes.

Parishioners are invited to bring friends and neighbours to the parish BBQ at 11:30 a.m. to share the official date on which Big Lunches are being held across Britain, Northern Ireland and the Commonwealth.

Lacrosse community will pay tribute to former player & coach on June 15 MARK BOOTH

m b o o t h @ d e l t a - o p t i m i s t .c o m

Thomas Haydon will continue to make an impact on Delta Lacrosse for many years to come.

The popular player and coach from Ladner lost his battle with pancreatic cancer last October at the age of 36. The Delta firefighter not only left behind a young family but a lacrosse community where he had contributed greatly as a player and a coach.

Now some of his closest lifelong friends have created an annual award in his honour.

The Thomas Haydon Memorial Award is affiliated with Delta Lacrosse and comes with a $2,500 scholarship.

“Thomas exemplified many amazing characteristics and was an outstanding member of the Ladner community. Our hope is to help a Delta lacrosse player who demonstrates some of his admirable qualities (hard work, loyalty, courage, and respect) to pursue post secondary education, work in the trades, or benefit from financial assistance.”

The inaugural winner will be announced on June 15 as part of what will be an annual special day in Haydon’s memory.

An alumni game will be played prior to the Delta Junior “A” Islanders taking on the Burnaby Lakers at 7 p.m. There will be an indoor beer garden and outdoor barbecue during the junior “A” game with all proceeds going to pancreatic cancer research on behalf of Delta Junior Islanders and Haydon Family and Friends.

The Thomas Haydon Memorial Award will be presented during the second period intermission.

The winner will receive a custom

The annual Thomas Haydon Memorial Award reflects his career as a firefighter. It comes with a $2,500 scholarship that will be presented to a Delta lacrosse player who demonstrates some of his qualities to pursue post-secondary education, work in the trades or benefit from financial assistance.

Haydon axe, reflecting his career a as a firefighter. The hope is permanent larger version of the award will be on display at the Ladner Leisure Centre.

Haydon’s friends and family thank Delta Islanders president Darcy Phillips, Steve Krawchuk and the City of Delta for their support of the award and special day.

Haydon was born in Swift Current, Sask., raised in Ladner and graduated from Delta Secondary in 2000.

He played and coached lacrosse in Ladner for over 20 years and he was the first captain of the inaugural Delta Junior “A” Islanders in 2002. His playing career also included helping the Ladner Pioneers win the President’s Cup national senior “B” championship in 2004.

Haydon was a husband, father of three, an avid outdoorsman, farmer, member of the Delta Fire Department and skilled in the trades. During his time, he was hardworking, loyal, courageous

and respectful, both on and off the lacrosse floor.

He was diagnosed with Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Cancer in the summer of 2017.

His diagnosis was complicated further by Cushing’s Syndrome.

Over the next year, he fought hard for his life, enduring many rounds of treatment. During that time, Haydon never complained and ensured his family was the top priority, even when he was very sick. The strength he demonstrated was truly inspiring.

Pioneers pull into tie for top spot by handing Adanacs first loss The Ladner Pioneers delivered an early season statement win on Sunday night.

The Pioneers came storming out of the gate and never looked back in a 13-6 road win over the previously unbeaten Coquitlam Adanacs.

The result leaves Ladner, Coquitlam and Nanaimo Timbermen all tied atop the West Coast Senior Lacrosse Association standings with 5-1-0 records.

The teams were tied at 1-1 less than two minutes into the contest when the Pioneers took control by scoring three unanswered goals. The Adanacs made it 4-2 but the visitors

were far from done in the opening frame — scoring five times in a 2:43 span.

It was an impressive debut for former Junior “A” Islanders standout Riley Phillips who finished with six points, including four goals.

The Ladner native scored 68 goals over three seasons in the B.C. Junior “A” Lacrosse League, including 31 a year ago. He was a member of the Islanders 2016 league championship team.

Ryan Keith also had a huge night with two goals and seven points. Tyler Kirkby scored twice, with singles to Cody Nass, Spencer Bromley, Josh Neumann and Jakob Doucet.

PARK, George It is with great sadness and heavy hearts we announce the sudden passing of George Park on May 26th, 2019. George was born May 19th, 1933 in Hamilton, Ontario. George, who was dearly loved passed away peacefully at the Irene Thomas Hospice in Ladner while his devoted wife of 62 years, Chuckie, was beside him checking to ensure his comfort while he slept. George was surrounded by all of his children who were a great source of love and pride for him. Although he was aware of the seriousness of his newly diagnosed condition, George’s usual great sense of humor and funny remarks were always evident.

George lived a very full life. He spent his early years in Hamilton, Ontario, where he proudly represented the Hamilton Aquatic Club swimming and playing water polo. George represented not only his Club, but also his city and country competing in Marathon Swims, British Empire and Pan America Games, as well as the 1956 Olympic Games in Melbourne, Australia.

George enjoyed countless adventures with Chuckie that included travelling Canada, US and Mexico in their motorhome. George was an amazing role model, not only to his naturally born children, but also to countless other children, adults, and their families in their personal lives as well as in sport. George’s kind and caring qualities were known to all those who came in contact with him.

George is survived by his loving wife Chuckie, his 6 children, 4 sons in laws, 9 grandchildren, and 7 great grandchildren; also countless nieces and nephews. He is also survived by his brother Thurlow and his sister Margaret.

There will be no service or celebration of life, per George’s wishes. George celebrated life every day. We will celebrate him in our hearts forever.

We would like to thank all that supported George and his family through this difficult time.

Nutte (Nick) was born in Niawier, Netherlands. He lived as a teen through WWII and in 1952 married his love, Janke (Jeanette). They immigrated soon after getting married, first to Ontario and then on to Edmonton, where Nick started his construction business. After 15 years of cold winters, friends beckoned them to the BC coast. They settled in Ladner and spent many years on the “slough” enjoying the view of mountains and feeding many ducks. Nick had a heart for people, helping many.

He was a member of Ladner Christian Reformed Church, a very supportive community, especially in his senior years and in the last few months of declining health. Nick leaves behind his loving wife, 4 children and their spouses, 13 grandchildren and 20 great-grandchildren.

We thank the Irene Thomas Hospice staff for their tender and compassionate care of Nick; it was the best. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to two charities Nick had a heart for: World Renew and Covenant House. A memorial will be held for Nick on June 8th at 11:30AM in the Ladner Christian Reformed Church.
