Outpouring of grief for Langley pilot CHRISTINE LYON Black Press

About 200 people squeezed inside the Boundary Bay Airport Terminal Tuesday afternoon (July 12) to remember a friend, brother, son and beloved flight instructor. Brett Loftus, 25, was one of two men killed July 5 when the Cessna

they were flying crashed in the mountainous terrain north of Harrison Lake after taking off on a training flight from Boundary Bay Airport. His 23-year-old student, Joel Nortman of Vancouver, also died in the accident. Both were members of South Deltabased Pacific Flying Club (PFC).

“The club is a lot lonelier today without Brett. Brett loved flying, he loved his students, he loved his friends and family and he never seemed to come in without that smile that we will treasure forever,” PFC chief operating officer Pat Kennedy told the somber crowd.

Albert Jacob Jackman said he will serve his prison sentence for the 2009 sledgehammer attack that permanently disabled a Langley man, with his “head held high.” The broad-shouldered 24-year-old spoke at his sentencing hearing before a B.C. Supreme Court judge in New Westminster on Tuesday. In June, Jackman pleaded guilty on one count of aggravated assault and one count of unlawful confinement in the attack that sent 29-year-old Tyler Willock to hospital with multiple fractures. Defence counsel Brian Coleman told the hearing that Jackman went after Willock because he was making jokes about the murder of Jackman’s friend, Kevin LeClair, a Surrey Red Scorpions associate gang member who was gunned down in a Langley strip mall. Jackman and LeClair were very close, almost like brothers, according to a written statement filed by LeClair’s father. Jackman, who has a tattoo of LeClair, was enraged to hear that Willock had laughed about the murder, saying it meant he wouldn’t have to pay back $40,000 he’d borrowed from the murdered man. “He [Willock] disrespected his close friend [LeClair] whose death he [Jackman] took very, very hard,” Coleman said. “Whatever else Albert Jackman may be, he has a strong sense of loyalty.” Jackman tied up Willock in the bedroom of his Langley home, applied duct tape to his eyes and mouth and hit him 20 times with a sledgehammer. The attack splattered the walls, ceiling and furniture of the bedroom with blood. Willock suffered multiple fractures that required extensive surgery and months of rehab. He has not fully recovered from his injuries. Crown prosecutor Catherine Fedder called it a “brutal, protracted, cold-blooded, vicious assault on another young man.” She is seeking a 12-year jail term. Coleman is suggesting six. Either way, Jackman will still be in jail once he completes his assault sentence because he is also serving a life sentence of 25 years without parole for the unrelated March 28, 2009 murder of 24-year-old Kyle Barber of Aldergrove. At the close of the Wednesday hearing, Justice Robert Crawford asked Jackman if he had anything to say. Jackman stood up and expressed regret, but not for the injuries to Willock.

Fraser River levels Green urged to peak Thursday to step aside Langley crews now making daily checks of water levels

Mayor accused of ignoring will of council NATASHA JONES

Times Reporter

The surge of water that flooded parts of Prince George is heading for the Lower Fraser River and Langley, the BC River Forecast Centre says. The agency issued a “high streamflow advisory” for the Lower Fraser River Monday, warning levels at Mission were expected to reach peak levels Wednesday and Thursday. A number of homes in one Prince George neighbourhood were evacuated because of minor flooding upriver, but the waters were beginning to ebb Wednesday and some residents were allowed to return to their houses. In Langley Township, municipal crews have begun making daily checks of river levels at three dikes in Glen Valley near the Abbotsford border, Fort Langley, and near the Golden Ears bridge. Usually the dikes are checked weekly, but when the levels at the Mission River gauge rose, the frequency was increased. Currently the water is no higher than the “toe” or base of the dikes, the Township engineering department reported. The higher than usual river levels are blamed on heavier than normal rainfall through the upper portions of the Fraser River watershed and North Thompson River late last week and weekend. More rain was forecast for the Upper Fraser watershed and it was expected to cause another rise in river levels through Prince George around the end of the week or the start of the weekend, with the surge working its way downstream to the Lower Mainland by early next week.

Rising water levels soak the banks of the Fraser River on the Langley side, in an image taken on July 7. Township crews are now checking Langley’s three dikes on a daily basis, while the water level is expected to peak below flood level, sometime today (Thursday, July 14).

Langley man thrown from capsized raft Trio plunged into swollen Fraser when homemade barrel raft overturned A Langley man was among a trio of men who are lucky to be alive after their raft capsized on the Fraser River near Hope on July 8. Cpl. Tammy Hollingsworth of the Upper Fraser Valley Regional Detachment said that

RCMP received a number of 911 calls at around 2 p.m. from people who saw a man floating down the Fraser River near the Fraser Bridge, hanging on to a piece of wood and yelling for help. Hope RCMP, RCMP Air Services and Hope and District Search and Rescue were immediately dispatched to the river, where they found that three men had fallen into the river when their raft, made of barrels, capsized. Witnesses saw a man screaming for help as he floated down the middle of the river. The first RCMP officer to arrive saw him in

the water, but then lost sight of him. Police located him on the shore near the Haig Weigh Scales. He said he had been in the water for approximately 45 minutes. Two of his companions managed to swim to shore at separate locations, and were discovered a short time later. Only two of the men were wearing life jackets. One of the callers to 911 was Trudi Jarvis who was sitting in her vehicle when she heard the cries for help. She remarked that the response of police and SAR “was absolutely bloody amazing.”

Two men were taken by B.C. Ambulance to Fraser Canyon Hospital and were treated for hypothermia. The men, aged 29 to 34, were from Port Coquitlam and Langley. The men should consider themselves lucky to be alive, Hollingsworth said. “The river is still quite high and flowing very quickly,” she said, adding that taking a raft crafted from barrels on to the river “is very dangerous and not something the police would suggest attempting.” She said that neither drugs nor alcohol were factors in the incident. No names have been released.

Langley Memorial Hospital received a passing grade in the latest rankings of B.C. hospitals by the Fraser Institute, however Fraser Health Authority sees little value in the exercise.

Passing grade for LMH Fraser Institute releases annual report card on B.C. hospitals DAN FERGUSON Times Reporter

LANGLEY COMMUNITY FARMER’S MARKET

MAKE IT! BAKE IT! GROW IT!

Langley Memorial Hospital (LMH) received a passing grade from the latest Fraser Institute British Columbia Hospital Report Card, which rates it equal to or better than the provincial average in every category of health care except one. According to the report released July 7 by the Vancouverbased right-of-centre libertarian think tank, LMH had a worse than average stroke mortality rate, ranking 31 out of 45 B.C. hospitals. While the Fraser Institute report card doesn’t suggest why, it appears from the report rankings that communities with a high number of older people tended to report a lower than average stroke survival rate, likely because elderly victims were less likely to survive. On the other hand, LMH had a better than average pneumonia survival rate, ranking 27 out of 73 hospitals. It also reported fewer complications for first and subsequent caesarean deliveries than the

provincial averages, ranking 15 out of 52 hospitals for caesarean and eight out of 52 hospitals for primary (first-time) caesarean deliveries. The survey reviewed in-patient quality and safety in each of the province’s 95 acute care hospitals based on volumes of procedures, utilization rates, and rates of adverse events. Not all hospitals perform all procedures, so the number surveyed varied according to category. As well, hospitals that performed a very small number of procedures were not included for privacy reasons, the institute said. The Fraser Health Authority, which administers LMH, issued a written statement Wednesday in response to a Times query saying it “has concerns with the way the Fraser Institute interprets data in this report.” “Ranking hospitals against each other can be misleading as each hospital serves different patients with different needs, requiring different medical procedures,” the health authority said.

“It is more appropriate to compare hospital performance over time than to compare hospitals against each other. This concern has been noted by the Canadian Institutes for Health Information as well.” The report card uses data from the Canadian Institute for Health Information’s (CIHI) Discharge Abstract Database of patient records provided to CIHI by all hospitals. The institute praised B.C. for being the only jurisdiction to provide names of all hospitals for the report. “B.C.’s health ministry should be applauded for providing patients, taxpayers, and health care providers the opportunity to learn more about the performance of local hospitals,” Fraser Institute spokesperson Nadeem Esmail said in a press release. “This stands in stark contrast to Alberta and Ontario, where the performance of public institutions is concealed behind a veil of anonymity,” she added. All of the information in the hospital report card is available online at www.hospitalreportcards.ca.

Is there space on 8.19 acres for a school and a park? Has the Langley School District correctly calculated the number of schoolaged children in the Routley neighbourhood of Willoughby? Does the Township have legal recourse when the school district changes its mind over the location of a school that is already documented in municipal planning documents? These, and the concerns raised by residents at a public hearing two weeks ago, will form part of a staff report to Township council. Council took the action on Monday, delaying third reading of a bylaw rezoning land at 198A Street and 70 Avenue in Routley. The rezoning application involves a land swap that would see the Routley school site traded for land in the Yorkson neighbourhood.

The deal would give the district another school site in rapidly-growing Yorkson; the Routley site would be developed with 103 townhouses, adjacent

to a public park. Routley parents are adamant that a school be built in their neighbourhood, some saying that they had been assured by realtors that a school was indeed in the plans. The school district says that its needs have changed: the population of school children is concentrating around Yorkson, less so in Routley which, Township planners say, is 90 per cent built. The Yorkson school site that

would replace the one in Routley is about four blocks from Lynn Fripps Elementary, which is currently under construction. While the student population is diminishing or only just holding steady in the rest of Langley, many Willoughby schools are overcrowded. But the land swap is not the answer, Councillor Kim Richter suggested. “You can’t rob from Routley to give to another part of the neighbourhood,” she said. Councillor Bob Long said that the property size should provide “plenty of room” for a school and park, and Councillor Mel Kositsky said that part of the problem lay with the provincial government “which keeps changing the rules.” He noted that it is now the Treasury Board, not the Ministry of Education, which controls the purse strings for new schools.

History of special prosecutors

Afghanistan: what’s next?

he fact that Vancouver lawyer David Crossin was appointed special prosecutor to review the Rick Green case doesn’t mean the besieged Langley Township mayor is any more guilty or innocent than he was before the announcement was made. What it does mean is the assistant deputy attorney general who made the appointment, believes there is “a significant potential for a perceived or real improper influence in prosecutorial decision.” The words are taken from the provincial government web site that describes the function of special prosecutors, the independent lawyer brought in to defuse the most explosive cases. “The paramount consideration is the need to maintain public confidence in the administration of criminal justice” the site goes on to say. A little history lesson may be in order. The law establishing the B.C. system of independent outside prosecutors was established two decades ago after the Bill Reid controversy erupted. When Reid, a senior government MLA, was accused of improper use of lottery money but was never charged, there were howls of outrage and charges of political interference with the legal system. The complaints were so loud and persistent they led to a public commission of inquiry which called for the use of outside prosecutors. The 1990 report by Stephen Owen said independent lawyers should be brought in “where there is a significant potential for real or perceived improper influence in the administration of criminal justice because of the proximity of the suspect, or someone with a close relationship to the suspect, to the investigation, charge approval or prosecution processes.” The Green case would certainly seem to qualify. Anyone who doubts the controversy over what the mayor or may not have done has become something of a political circus is invited to have a look at the online comments posted at the Langley Times and other web sites.

That is, unless those who fought there do not abandon the people and maintain a presence – if not militarily, then through aid, training programs and more. Should the worst occur – as has happened throughout Afghanistan’s history – then Canada’s efforts there will be deemed futile and the region will be as unstable at is was before NATO arrived. But what would Canada be if it didn’t try to make a positive difference in the lives of others? As a society, we’ve agreed to have a military and to use it in as best a manner as possible. And then follow their lead with support to ensure chaos does not return. As always, these are best-laid plans. Afghanistan proved Canadian soldiers are some of the best in the world. It’s a testament to this that Canada did not lose more than the 158 soldiers over that 10-year mission. The sacrifice of those soldiers is a price Canada was willing to pay – and that will not be forgotten. Nor should Afghanistan be forgotten.The end of missions and even economic realities might see soldiers leave, but to abandon Afghanistan completely would be a mistake. – Parksville-Qualicum News The Langley Times is a member of the British Columbia Press Council, a self-regulatory body governing the province’s newspaper industry.

Numbers are there Parks free for all for Routley school Grade 8 students Editor: In your edition of Thursday, July 7 the statement is made that the school board said the number of students in Routley does not justify an elementary school. I want to emphasize that the school board’s decisions are not based on recent data. They based their statements on the number of students from Routley who go to other schools in the Langley area. This does not include preschool children and students going from Routley to Surrey and even Abbotsford. We talked to many disgruntled parents in Routley who drive their children to other schools than the Langley school district. The school board’s calculations are incorrect and misleading. I was personally involved in a survey counting the number of houses in Routley. A professional engineer and I went from house to house, and we compared the number with Google satellite images. There are a total of 927 existing, occupied units and 212 future units. At total build -out in the future, this means a total of 1139 units and a total population of 3,666 — calculated at the standard 3.0 persons for townhouses. Number of students: average 0.55 students/single family unit and 0.43/townhouse. If there was a need for an elementary school in 2008, the need now, with more occupied houses, is even greater, not less. The school board’s statement does not make any sense. Dr. Petrus J. Pretorius Langley

Editor: Nature Canada has joined with Parks Canada and the HistoricaDominion Institute to give every Grade 8 student in Canada a free pass to any Parks Canadaadministered national park or national historic site. The pass is good for a whole year, and so the family doesn’t feel left out, students can flash their pass for an instant discount on a daily family or group pass, too. With 42 national parks, 167 national historic sites and four national marine conservation areas across the country, there are many things you can do with a My Parks Pass — hiking through the Rocky Mountains, sailing down a historic canal or following in the footsteps of Canada’s great historical figures. Which adventure you take is up to you. If you share your My Parks Pass experiences through photos and stories on the My Parks Pass Web site (www.myparkspass.ca) you can win great prizes. Send in a photo of your adventure at a national park, national historic site or national marine conservation

area, or if you can’t make it out to one of those destinations, take a picture of yourself with the pass. Your photo could get you an iPod Touch or an iTunes gift card. The passes were distributed to schools across the country, including Langley, so if you have a Grade 8 student in your house, he or she should have it by now. Any Grade 8 students, including homeschooled students who were missed during the distribution, can request a My Parks Pass through the Parks Canada National Information Service at 1-888-773-8888 or information@ pc.gc.ca. As Canadians, we are remarkably fortunate to have abundant opportunities to connect with nature. For so many of us, some of our favourite childhood memories involve being outdoors – and children today can still have those same memorable moments. So I encourage you to use the My Parks Pass, get outside and have fun. Ian Davidson Executive Director, Nature Canada

HST vote a question of public trust Editor: The HST question is more than a simple tax question, it is a question of public trust in government. As far as the financial side goes, you’re paying more sales tax under the HST than you would under the PST/GST: On average about $350 per family, not including necessary big-ticket items like a new house or putting a new roof on the old house which is no longer exempt from the PST. The HST is a tax transfer from business to the public. Yes, this will be a more efficient tax collection system with collection details in just one (Revenue Canada) computer system, but I don’t want to pay $350 every year for that privilege. While this may look like a better collection system on the surface, I believe it will fuel the underground economy and tax revenue may decrease. As I mull over my HST vote I am considering something much more important than a tax collection method, and that is the slow erosion of my democratic rights

political term of office. Hell, no. I don’t want to contribute another $350 yearly for short term blunders. I don’t like politicians lying, then trying to buy my vote with promises of a future reprieve. If it works this time it will become another established political norm. Lie to the public then give the fall guy a plush job overseas. The public are indeed fortunate to have a chance to express our opinion on this subject. Myself, I expect nothing less than honesty from my government and in my opinion this is much more important to preserving our rights and freedoms than how the tax is actually collected. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to say, “enough is enough, government must listen to the people and we demand complete honesty.” Do not worry, the government will get your money. So vote ‘yes’ for honesty. George McNutt Langley

Editor: As our school year has come to a close and our Canada Day celebrations are over, CUPE members who work in the Langley School District take time to reflect on the past year and prepare for September, 2011. Working in the public school system is a great job and is also a labour of love. Students are at the centre of all we do, no matter what job CUPE members do. Our special education assistants, ESL assistants, youth care workers, Aboriginal support workers, interpreters for the deaf and hard of hearing, family support workers and other specialists work with students who need specialized support — and spend their days in and out of the classroom — ensuring that all students can be successful. They will miss the students who they supported this year and we know those students will miss them. Our bus drivers, bus monitors, library and science techs, Strong Start facilitators will return in September to support our students as well. Clerical staff will close financial accounts and get ready for auditors as well as do all the preparation for the new school year. Our collegues in CUPE Local 1851 will be hard at work keeping the schools clean and maintaining the buildings and grounds in preparation for the new school year. At the end of this year we said good bye to retiring CUPE Local 1260 members. In all, 19 members with the combined service of close to 400 years, retired by the end of the summer. We wish them well and we know our community does, too. For the CUPE staff who will be there to open up schools in September it will be a challenging year. We are seeing layoffs and reduction in hours as the district continues to deal with its deficit elimination plan. Our schools and student services also feel the effects of chronic underfunding. However, regardless of these challenges, we look forward to welcoming new and returning students when the new school year starts all over again in September and wish everyone a safe and fun-filled summer.

and freedoms. Do we not live under a democratic system where taxes are imposed only after honest political discussion and if so, do we not want to keep it that way? It scares me that rights and freedoms are lost in tiny bits, often gone before we notice. Our government has established as normal that taxes can be imposed by quasigovernment bodies over which we have no control. Public-private partnerships allow an exorbitant tax to cross a bridge, regional transit levies tax your Hydro bill and gasoline and assessment authority taxes on property tax and even tax on taxes like eco fees. It also scares me that government can sell public facilities (BC Rail) for immediate gain without long term considerations. It bewilders me that government can afford a multi-million dollar fabric roof for a sports stadium, billion dollar winter festivals (Olympics) but cannot afford bridges, public transit or other long-term public infrastructure projects that outlive their

Extend Your Vehicle's Life Between bad road conditions and long idling times, winter driving causes a lot of wear and tear on your vehicle. Summer maintenance is the best way to help your car recover. A good rule of thumb is that a change of season equals a change of oil. Changing your car's oil and filter every three months or 5,000 kms, whichever comes first, will ensure that your car operates at peak efficiency. Changing oil regularly is the single most important thing that can be done to extend the life of your vehicle and keep it running smoothly.

There’s nothing secret about the cameras. Signs have been prominently posted at the intersections to advise drivers that ISC (Intersection Safety Camera) cameras are in place. Plans call for installation of 140 cameras at highcollision locations around the province. Every day, on average, ICBC says about 250 crashes occur at intersections in B.C. They are often more serious because they involve high speed and right angle or t-bone crashes. More than 40 per cent of police-attended accidents occur at intersections.

The provincial government won’t soften its 10-month-old roadside administrative penalties for impaired driving, citing a 50-per-cent drop in drunk driving deaths since the rules took effect. Nor will it embark on a public information campaign previously pledged to help revelers decide how much they can drink before they might exceed the lower blood-alcohol limit of 0.05 if caught behind the wheel.

“Half the number of people have died on the roads as a result of drunk driving based on the statistics we see,” Premier Christy Clark told reporters Monday. Preliminary numbers show 30 deaths in alcohol-related crashes in the first seven months of the new regulations, down from an average of 61 fatalities in the same Octoberto-April period of the previous five years. Police credit the new regulations — with the threat of stiff fines and car impoundments — for the improved driving safety record. Police can now impose an immediate penalty on any driver who blows in the “warn” range between 0.05 and 0.08. continued, PAGE 12

Businesses have to find ways to adapt, says assoc. president Instead of issuing a 24-hour suspension or a formal impaired charge, police can impose a 90-day driving ban, a $500 fine and impound the vehicle for 30 days, with the owner on the hook for the towing and storage charges.

Former Public Safety Minister Rich Coleman had promised a review of the new rules late last year after the bar and restaurant industry complained of lost business because patrons were drinking less. He had indicated that might lead to an

appeal period where drivers caught by police could lodge challenges before the penalties are applied. But no such legislation was tabled this spring. B.C. Restaurant and Foodservice Association president Ian Tostenson said his

“We wish it hadn’t happened. But it’s here and let’s make the best of it.” Ian Tostenson restaurant and food service assoc. president

members now accept that the rules are here to stay.

“When the theme of Families First came through from the

premier, it was pretty obvious that no one in their right mind was going to say families are important — and by the way, we’re going to loosen up on the impaired driving penalties,” he said. Business was down much more steeply in the immediate months

after the change, he said. Now, he said, the worst-hit businesses are down perhaps 10 to 12 per cent from before the change, possibly as patrons understand the rules and make alternate arrangements for transportation. He said it’s also difficult to say how much of the losses stem not from the drunk driving penalties but from consumers’ reluctance to spend due to the sluggish economy or the imposition of the harmonized sales tax. “I think we just have to adapt and find ways to make it work,” Tostenson said. “We wish it hadn’t happened. But it’s here and let’s make the best of it.” Attorney General Barry Penner is also counting on the policy change to help decongest B.C.’s crowded courts. The shift to policeimposed roadside penalties — dubbed by some defence lawyers as an effective decriminalization of impaired driving — means most of those incidents now no longer go into the court system. Penner previously called it a side benefit of the change that should help cut the backlog in the criminal courts. While those punished under the administrative system and not the courts pay a high price up front, they avoid possible court sanctions, including a criminal record, a possible one-year Canada-wide driving as well as potential jail time.

four years, he has begun spending time at Canuck Place. Canuck Place is a children’s hospice which provides specialized pediatric palliative care for children living with life-threatening illnesses and support for their families throughout the province. Canuck Place

New water restrictions in effect The Township has imposed Stage 3 Water Use Restrictions for residents on the municipal water system in the communities of Aldergrove, Gloucester, and Salmon River Uplands. These restrictions will remain in effect until Sept. 30. Higher temperatures increase municipal water usage, putting a strain on local aquifers, which are the sole source of municipal water to these communities. The Township says it must take these conservation measures in order to ensure that an adequate supply of water for drinking and emergencies is available. Other parts of the municipality receive municipal water from Metro Vancouver reservoirs. Everyone can do their part to reduce

water usage, and residents with private wells in those areas are asked to support conservation efforts by voluntarily complying with the Stage 3 restrictions which are governed by bylaw. Stage 3 restrictions mean that: * Lawn sprinkling is prohibited by homes and businesses; • Residential and most commercial gardens, shrubs, trees, and flower beds may only be watered by hand, by containers, or through drip irrigation; • Private (residential) pressure washing is prohibited, and commercial hosing or pressure washing is only allowed for health or safety reasons, or for preparing a surface for painting; • Decorative fountains must be shut down

Vista D’oro a feast for the senses THERESA HARRETT Times contributor

The drive out to Vista D’oro winery in Campbell Valley is a feast for the eyes. It seems as though once you are beyond 30 Avenue, the landscape begins to transform into a European countryside. I was amazed at how it all magically appeared, leaving me in awe of its acres of green amidst a hue of gold. Young people on horseback completed the canvas in an almost hard to believe scenic drive. It was a sunny reminder of why we live here in Langley. Camera and curiosity in hand I approached the winery, owned by Patrick and Lee Murphy, in anticipation of what I might find, and to my surprise walked straight into a packed house consisting of a large group of men. They all stood, glasses in hand, with serious attention being paid to both the wines and fruit preserves made available for sampling. Patrick waved me into the room and I was quickly invited to join the group. In that instant I knew that the Campbell Valley Wine Run was a great idea. I asked the men in this testosterone-filled room, where they had come from and what had led them out to the Valley. Who would have guessed

Toaster’s toast – now what? In the course of a lifetime, how many broken toasters, busted vacuum cleaners, and malfunctioning clocks does a person incur? And where do they go, before making their way to Small Appliance Heaven? Unless you are using your old blender as a planter, chances are the answer has been the garbage dump — until now. On Aug. 1, the Canadian Electrical Stewardship Association (CESA) will be launching the Small Appliance Recycling Program in B.C., and Township residents are encouraged to take advantage of the greener alternative to throwing away old or broken household objects. “A wide range of small appliances, from things you use in your kitchen like can openers, food processors, microwaves, and coffee makers, to bathroom appliances such as weight scales and curling irons, will be included in the program,” said Tess Rutley, the Township’s solid waste technical assistant. “A number of locations are currently being set up throughout the community so that residents can conveniently and safely discard of these and other old or broken small appliances.”

WE’RE EXPANDING! {LUCY} Clothing has leased the space next door, and is expanding our store! More change rooms, mirrors and space for our fabulous dresses... we’re SOOO excited!

Technical assistant Tess Rutley and other Township of Langley’s Solid Waste staff are encouraging residents to keep their old toasters, kettles, curling irons, and microwaves out of the garbage dump and to use the new Small Appliance Recycling Program instead. A full list of small appliances included in the program and the Langley locations that will be accepting them will be posted at cesarecycling.ca. CESA is non-profit agency made up of the manufacturers,

distributors, and retailers of the products accepted in the recycling program. The Small Appliance Recycling Program is funded by eco fees submitted to the association by its members.

A meeting of artists and art teachers Students from Langley Fine Arts school participate in SFU project DAN FERGUSON Times Reporter

One of the first things the students from Langley Fine Arts school showed the student teachers at Simon Fraser University was how to begin a performance when you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have a proper curtain to raise. â&#x20AC;&#x153;One, two, three, curtain!â&#x20AC;? they said, all together. Then the show, a mix of music, spoken

word, dance and photography, began. A young woman with a white flower in her hair that matched her outfit danced to an instrumental song. The choreography featured strong, athletic movements. Another student performed an original song on her guitar, in a clear, powerful voice that filled the low-ceilinged room. Two trombone players apologized for their lack of rehearsal, then demonstrated how Bach sounds on that type of horn. It was a little ragged at first, so they started over. Two more students who learned to play the traditional upright acoustic bass went electric for an all-bass version of the Beatles song Come together.

More than a dozen students took dent artists and student teachers the stage during the late afternoon was part of RYME (Research for performance in the faculty of eduYouth, Music and Education), an cation building at SFUâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Burnaby SFU research project called Arts campus.

Teaching youth the value of the arts from PAGE 18

don’t have arts programs. If music and the arts are to thrive, O’Neill said, young people must be encouraged to get involved, even if they aren’t going to be artists themselves. “We really need to get the students really thinking about about why the arts matter,” she said. “This is the next generation.

They’re going to have children and they’re going to want the arts in their school [if RYME succeeds in raising their interest].” The meeting of student artists and student art teachers is also designed to benefit the teachers, she added. “It’s going to give them a different angle on why they’re there. They’re not just there to create performers or to give them

skills but they’re really creating young people who are passionate about what they’re doing, who are interested in expressing themselves. “I think it’s going to open up their minds to new learning opportunities.” Society as a whole will benefit, she believes. Video online at langleytimes. com.

Natasha JONES/Langley Times

Fort Langley-Aldergrove MLA Rich Coleman voted to keep the HST before he posted his ballot on Friday, July 8. Deadline to vote in the province-wide referendum is Aug. 5.

Pesticide ban eyed A provincial committee has convened to consider a possible blanket ban on home use of pesticides for cosmetic purposes throughout B.C. Liberal MLA Dr. Margaret MacDiarmid, a cancer survivor, heads the bipartisan special committee now weighing the potential to outlaw the sale of pesticides and the possible impact on farmers and forestry. Dozens of B.C. cities already have local bans on residential use but MacDiarmid said the ability to buy a herbicide or insecticide in one area and use it in another means there are grounds to consider a B.C. standard. “There’s a real patchwork around the province,” she said. Langley Township has not taken steps to prohibit cosmetic pesticides locally, but supports a province-wide ban. Retailers currently sell pesticides even in cities where their use is banned. The Canadian Cancer Society argues long-term exposure to residential pesticides poses a cancer threat to children. New Democrats have already been pressing for tighter rules. NDP leader Adrian Dix this spring proposed a ban on the sale of high-risk pesticides, leaving residents only able to use lower risk alternatives.

Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver reports 9.8 per cent increase

Home sales continue to rise Homes sales in Greater Vancouver are still increasing, according to a report by the Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver. Residential property sales increased by 9.8 per cent in June, reaching 3,262 compared to 2,972 in June 2010. New listings on the Multiple Listing Service also rose, to 5,793 from 5,544 a year ago. This represents a 4.5 per cent increase. This is good news for buyers, as the increase in listings has made the market more balanced. “With sales below the 10-year average and home listings above what’s typical for the month, activity in June brought closer alignment between supply and demand in our marketplace,” says REBGV President Rosario Setticasi. “With a sales-to-active listings ratio

of nearly 22 per cent, it looks like we’re in the upper end of a balanced market.” The benchmark price on the MLSLink Housing Price Index has increased over the last 12 months by 8.7 per cent to $630,921 in June from $580,237 last year. “The largest price increases continue to be in the detached home market on the west side of Vancouver and in West Vancouver,” Setticasi says. “Since the end of May, the benchmark price of a detached home rose more than $147,000 on the west side of Vancouver and over $80,000 in West Vancouver.” The benchmark price of an apartment increased 3.5 per cent in June to $405,200, and attached property sales reached a benchmark price of $522,424, an increase of six per cent.

‘There hasn’t been an offering like this in a long time’

Edgewater a private paradise in Surrey by Kerry Vital

Your car purrs through the gated entryway, past the concierge house, and continues into a lushly landscaped courtyard. You pull into your underground parking space, and shut off the engine. All you hear is birdsong and the burbling of a creek. Welcome to your new home at Edgewater in South Surrey. Situated off a quiet cul-de-sac, Edgewater is the latest project from Barber Creek Development, and homes are selling quickly. “It’s like an exclusive private enclave,” says Cristy Edmonds, vice-president of sales and marketing for Fifth Avenue Marketing. “There hasn’t been an offering like this in a long time.” Bordered by the Nicomekl River and Barber Creek, Edgewater lives up to its name. Edmonds says that 80 per cent of the 14-acre property is park land and green space, making it the perfect place to unwind. Part of the appeal of the development is the large balconies or patios that are standard in every condominium suite so you will always have a beautiful view and space to relax with a morning cup of coffee. If you’re looking for somewhere else to unwind, homeowners at Edgewater have the use of an outdoor rooftop pool on the top of the development’s amenities building, called the Outlook. Inside, residences are given access to a fitness centre and yoga studio, entertainment room with a lounge and billiards tables, or a chef ’s kitchen and

“

You don’t have to give up entertaining,” says Vice-President of Sales and Marketing for Fifth Avenue Marketing Cristy Edmonds. private dining lounge. The building also includes a fully equipped media room and workshop. Even Fido will be at home in Edgewater, with its dog wash area and plenty of room to play outside. The development is made up of five three-storey wood frame buildings, each holding a variety of one- and twobedroom homes ranging from 680 to 1,058 square feet in the first phase. A big concern for people looking to downsize is the smaller space, and what it means for your social life. “You don’t have to give up entertaining,” says Edmonds, because there is plenty of space for dinner

parties, movie nights or just coffee with a friend. Each home includes a gourmet kitchen with no shortage of special touches. Among them are amazing floor-to-ceiling wood shakerstyle cabinets in a choice of white oak or dark maple, which are perfectly complemented by natural granite or quartz stone countertops with a matching tile backsplash. Buyers at Edgewater can expect a lifestyle filled with comfort and warmth. Tile flooring in the ensuite is heated to keep your feet warm on those cold Lower Mainland mornings, and nine-foot ceilings make the entire place feel open and airy, even on a rainy day. Bathrooms are made for pampering,

with walk-showers or a luxurious tub and separate shower combination in the ensuite, and natural marble countertops. Full-width bevelled mirrors are included, surrounded by stylish pot lights or pendant lamps to put everyone in the best light. In the living area, laminate hardwood flooring is available in your choice of two colours. An electric fireplace lends a soft glow to the room, surrounded by limestone tile and a hand-crafted wood mantle that adds a touch of elegance to an already beautiful room. Homes at Edgewater start at $199,900. For more information visit www.edgewaterliving.com or call 604-535-9655.

Feds kick in $2 million to help local businesses Canada’s Economic Action Plan has provided real results for Canada’s food producers and helped them deliver the highest quality food to consumers at home and abroad. Langley MP Mark Warawa, on behalf of Agriculture Minister Gerry Ritz, congratulated three local processing companies today on improving their business with the combined support of more than $2 million from the federal government.These investments helped the companies improve their processing lines, providing farmers with more opportunities to get their products to market. “The Government of Canada is continuously working to provide farmers as well as the entire valuechain with new and innovative technologies that increase productivity and boost their bottom line,”Warawa said.“This funding enhances the sector’s competitiveness, helps companies increase production, creates new jobs for local communities, and creates more demand for high quality Canadian agricultural products.” Recently, the AgriProcessing Initiative provided support to Freybe Gourmet Foods, Made-Rite Meat Products, and Sugarplum Desserts. Freybe Gourmet Foods received a $1,900,000 repayable contribution to

purchase and install new high pressure food processing equipment. Made-Rite Meat Products received a $376,770 repayable contribution to purchase and install a new machine to automate the packaging of beef jerky. Sugarplum Desserts received a $94,500 repayable contribution to purchase and install a specialized ingredient mixer for various flavoured cake icings/frostings and butter-creams. Freybe Gourmet Foods specializes in the production of sausages, ham and speciality deli meats. Made-Rite Meat Products is in the business of processing, packaging and selling beef jerky. Sugarplum Desserts bakes cheesecakes, layered cakes and cookies. These repayable contributions are delivered by the Agricultural Flexibility Fund through the AgriProcessing Initiative, a five-year, up to $50-million initiative designed to enhance the competitiveness of the food processing sector in Canada. It provides support to existing companies for projects that involve the adoption of innovative and new-to-company manufacturing technologies and processes that are essential to sustaining and improving the sector’s position in today’s global marketplace.

A family affair at Stampede After a heartbreaking loss the year before, a Langley family was victorious at the 2011 Calgary Stampede Now, finally, George de Jonge can let himself off the hook. One year ago, de Jonge, his daughter Cathy Sinclair, and his granddaughter Taylor Sinclair were just seconds away from a priceless family snapshot — winning a 7 Class championship together at the Calgary Stampede’s Team Cattle Penning Competition — before misfortune struck. Monday night at the Scotiabank Saddledome, the trio got another chance — and slammed the gate on victory. “Last year, we entered the final in first place, and our run happened so fast . . . Taylor came up with third cow, and it was so loud in here that we didn’t know it was happening,” recalled Cathy Sinclair. “The first cow spooked, and bolted back, and we lost those seconds we needed . . . so we finished fifth.” “Grandpa kept blaming himself, but we told him that no one’s to blame — because we’re family,” Taylor added. Proving that blood is thicker than melancholy, the Langley trio saddled up again on the final night of the Stampede’s Team Cattle Penning Competition — and ended up top of the heap in 7 Class, with solid runs of 38.11 seconds in the third round and 33.20 seconds in the 10-team final. The winning team laid down an aggregate, four-round time of 137.41 seconds on 12 head of cattle, collecting a cheque for $18,081 and

Cathy Sinclair (left to right), George de Jonge and Taylor Sinclair teamed up to win the Calgary Stampede’s team cattle penning competition on Monday. The grandfather/mother/ daughter combination won $18,081 and Stampede championship buckles. those coveted, hand-tooled Stampede championship buckles. Their spiffy final run triggered the fourth and final lead change of the money round, and left them standing alone among the 149 outfits that began the 7 Class showdown the week before Taylor at the Okotoks Agricultural Society. “Every penning we go to, we ride as a family,” said de Jonge. “And we did it. We finally did it.” “We came back to win these buckles,” added Cathy Sinclair. “It’s special, very special.” De Jonge, 67, has been competing for nearly 20 years, while his daughter, Cathy, 44, has competed for 14 years. Twenty-year-old Taylor has

participated for a dozen years. Team Cattle Penning, a race against the clock, gives a team of three riders on horseback 60 seconds to separate three specifically identified cattle from a herd of 30 and direct them into a 16-foot-by-24foot pen at the opposite end Sinclair cattle penner of the arena. Teamwork is key, with all three riders working in harmony to cut out the correct cattle and drive them to the pen. Standing second overall entering Monday’s final, Cathy Sinclair, her dad, and her daughter had their strategy all worked out. “We decided that even though Taylor was first in, and my dad was second rider, he

would walk in softly and find his cow. And as soon as my third cow popped out at the top of the herd, I booked it to the pen,” said Cathy. “My dad understands cattle. He’s been a farmer for 40 years.” The Calgary Stampede boasts one of the biggest team penning competitions on the continent. This year, 492 teams from across North America converged on Calgary for a piece of the $225,000 in cash and prizes that were up for grabs in four classes over four nights of competition at the Saddledome. ••••• The family hosts weekly penning practices. The Wednesday night sessions run year-round from 7 to 9 p.m. at Fast Times Farm (6622 248 St.) Penners of all skill levels are welcome to attend the sessions.

An injured foot may have hobbled Django Lovett, but it wasn’t going to stop him. Lovett was able to clear the necessary qualifying height of 2.05m at the Canadian junior national track and field championships over the weekend at Winnipeg’s University of Manitoba campus. Lovett finished second in the high jump, and in addition to the medal, he earned a spot on Canada’s Pan American junior track and field team. The squad will compete in Miranmar, Fla. from July 22-24. Lovett, a Brookswood graduate who attends the University of New Mexico, was one of four local athletes competing in Winnipeg, and all four managed to find the podium. Jade Vaughan ran the second leg for B.C. Athletics in the 4x400 relay helping the quartet take gold. Vaughan, who competes with the Coquitlam Cheetahs Track and Field Club, also finished seventh in the 400m hurdles event. The Walnut Grove graduate is attending the University of TexasArlington in the fall. Spencer Prince, a Brookswood graduate, who along with Lovett trains with the Valley Royals Track and Field Club, won a pair of medals in Winnipeg. Prince’s throw of 16.33m in the shot put earned him a silver, while his hammer throw of 61.1m won bronze. Prince attends Illinois State University. And Carolyn Sutherland, who attends Brookswood and is a member of the Langley Mustangs Track and Field Club, won silver in the long jump with a leap of 5.66m. ••••• At the world youth track and field championships in France, Georgia Ellenwood set a new Canadian youth record in the heptathlon with 4,952 points. She finished 12th in the event. The heptathlon is made up of hurdles, high jump, shot put, long jump, javelin, 200m and 800m.

As a member of the Abbotsford Heat last season, Aldergrove native Matt Keith was afforded the luxury of playing as close to home as possible. As of this fall, Keith could hardly be any further away. He signed a one-year contract last week with Orebro, a club in Sweden’s second division. The 28-year-old forward chuckles when the geographical irony is mentioned to him. “It’s funny — my buddies are wondering why I have to leave so early, since I have to go over there the first week of August,” he said. “But I’ve been around here for 18 months now, so it’s not so bad. “It’s just part of the business. The way I look at it, I was fortunate enough to get the opportunity to play (in Abbotsford). I’m proud of the way it went, and now it’s on to the next chapter.”

Langley’s Matt Keith has opted to sign with a Swedish second division club on a one-year contract. Keith led the AHL Abbotsford Heat in scoring in 2010/11 with 20 goals and 35 points. Keith is coming off a solid season with the Heat — he paced the scoring-challenged squad with 35 points (20 goals, 15 assists) in 77 games.

He was also the team’s AHL Man of the Year award recipient, recognizing his contributions to the local community and charitable organizations.

Keith had talks with the NHL parent Calgary Flames about returning, but the two parties ended up parting ways. “They just decided to go

another way,” said Keith, alluding to the Flames’ signing of AHL veterans like Ben Walter, Guillaume Desbiens and Clay Wilson to two-way contracts. “I haven’t been on an NHL contract for three years now, and it was looking like, if anything, it was going to be another AHL contract from them (the Flames/Heat). “Where I am right now in my career, I’m looking forward to going over to Europe and starting the next chapter, seeing where that takes me.” The Aldergrove Minor Hockey product is spending the summer at home in Langley, training locally with several other pro hockey players at TnT Hockey Performance Training. Keith has some experience playing in Europe, having suited up for Germany’s Ingolstadt ERC in 2008-09. With Orebro, he’s been told he’ll play on a line with Jared Aulin, a former WHL standout with the Kamloops Blazers and a longtime AHLer. “He’s a great offensiveminded guy, and that’ll make it easier,” Keith said. “I want to go with the mindset that I want to improve and get better, and keep as many doors open in North America as possible.” — with files from Gary Ahuja/Langley Times

Fundraiser for food bank Money also being raised for B.C. Cancer Parents Association KURT LANGMANN Black Press

The Stanley Cup hockey fever may be over for another year as summer activities finally arrive, but local NHL hockey fans can still get their fix this weekend when three up-andcoming professional players visit fans at their Aldergrove hometown. NHL pros Cameron Abney, Dean Arsene and Brad Thiessen all grew up in the Aldergrove area and still have family living here. The three men will be at Aldergrove Arena this Saturday, July 16 from noon to 2 p.m., to meet their hometown fans and old friends. It’s a fund-raiser for the Aldergrove Food Bank and is co-hosted by the Aldergrove Kodiaks junior B hockey team and TNT Hockey Performance Training. “Everyone who brings a nonperishable food donation of $10 or more will get autographs and photos from the players,” said

Mike Thompson, a co-owner of TNT along with Tyler Jackson. “It’s a tough time of year for the food banks and we wanted to help them out with this event.” Abney, 19, is a bruising winger who was drafted by the Edmonton Oilers in 2010 and signed a two-way contract this spring. Arsene, 30, is a defenceman who has just signed a two-way contract with the Phoenix Coyotes. Thiessen, 25, is a goalie on a two-way contract with the Pittsburgh Penguins. Thiessen had an outstanding season last year with the Penguins’ AHL affiliate and was named to the AHL All Star team. TNT’s Jackson has been training Thiessen since his Junior B Hockey days eight years ago, and says that while Thiessen “has always been under the radar” his prowess as a goalie is a result of “all hard work. I’ve never seen anyone work as hard as Brad. He’s a real determined guy.” Rick Harkins, owner and general manager of the Aldergrove Kodiaks, will also be at Aldergrove Arena this Saturday, along with some of the next season’s players, including captain Jordan Pughe. “We will be selling season

tickets at a reduced rate, and all Aldergrove Minor Hockey kids can attend Kodiaks season games free if accompanied by an adult,” said Harkins. Thompson will also have tickets available for the annual TNT charity golf tournament, August 4 at Northview Golf and Country Club, as well as the charity hockey game at Langley’s Sportsplex on the next night. All proceeds go to the B.C. Cancer Parents Association, a registered charity based in Cloverdale, and Thompson is aiming to raise at least $10,000 that weekend for the cause. For the golf tournament, companies can purchase a foursome for $400 (which includes green fees and golf cart). For that price, they get three spots, while the fourth will be filled by a professional (NHL and AHL) hockey players. Some of the confirmed players include Troy Brouwer (Washington Capitals), James Reimer (Toronto Maple Leafs), Vern Fiddler (Dallas Stars) and Greg Zanon (Minnesota Wild). For information or registration for either of these special events, call Thompson at 604-723-8198 or Jackson at 604836-2448. — with files from Gary Ahuja/Langley Times

Rams readying for season opener Football fans will get a chance to watch the Langley Rams in action on Saturday as the junior football team plays an intersquad game at McLeod Park. The Rams, who play in the B.C. Junior Football Conference, will split into two squads for Saturday’s contest. It kicks off at 2 p.m. The Rams moved to Langley this past off-season after a long and storied history in Surrey. The team is gearing up for the regular season opener on July 30 when they welcome the Vancouver Island Raiders to McLeod Park. The Rams began training camp last week (July 6) with 80 players as they look to whittle down the roster to 65 players by the end of next week.

Chaos reigns at provincials An early two-run hole was no problem for the Langley Chaos. Stephanie Digness erased the deficit with one swing of the bat, belting a three-run home run.And from that point on, the Chaos were in complete control, downing the Abbotsford Bandits 17-7. The teams were playing in the bantam C fastball provincial title game over the weekend in Chilliwack. Taylor Glass provided solid pitching after the Chaos took the lead, and then Rachelle Folk closed things out. The Chaos were undefeated through the tournament, going 4-0 in round robin play. They overcame a shaky start in the first game, rallying for a 10-9 win over Sooke. And after that, Langley cruised with an 8-0 win over North Delta, 11-1 over North Shore and 11-0 over Port Moody. In the playoff round, they beat Chilliwack 12-3, won 14-1 over West Kootenay, and tamed the Parksville Rage 9-1. The gold medal at

provincials capped off an amazing season for the Chaos, who won six tournaments and finished second twice. They had an overall record of 46-4 in league and tournament play. ••••• Their ninth win in 10 games helped the Langley Jr. Blaze clinch top spot for the second straight year. The U16 baseball team defeated the Fraser Valley Jr. Chiefs 51 on Monday. Liam Stroud threw a complete game threehitter, striking out a dozen Chiefs batters along the way. He leads the B.C. Junior Premier League with 88 strikeouts and a 9-0 record. Tanner Shaer,Tyler O’Neil and Michael Dagg had an RBI apiece. The victory, Langley’s fourth straight, improved the team to 37-6 with five games remaining in league play. The second-place Nanaimo Pirates sit six games back at 29-10. The Blaze resume league play on Sunday with a doubleheader at

McLeod Park against the Coquitlam Redlegs. ••••• Jesse Peters left the Burnaby Bulldogs with all bark and no bite. The Langley Sr. Blaze pitcher threw a gem, scattering three hits over seven innings in a 2-0 victory Tuesday night at Robert Burnaby Park. Joe Germaine and Scott Webster each drove in a run. The victory pulled the Blaze into a first-place tie with the Bulldogs in the Pacific Metro Baseball League standings. ••••• The Langley Jr. Thunder will host game two of their best-of-three playoff series against the Delta Islanders on Monday night at the Langley Events Centre. The series begins on Saturday at the Ladner Leisure Centre. If necessary, the third game would be hosted by Delta on Wednesday. ••••• The Vancouver Whitecaps women’s soccer team plays their regular season finale tomorrow (Friday) night at McLeod Park.
