A DOGGONE GOOD TIME
Two convicted in Aldergrove slaying
Trial of second man charged in Langley sledgehammer beating proceeds
DAN FERGUSON Times Reporter
In a soft, sometimes unsteady voice, Carol Barber told a B.C. Supreme Court judge what the murder of her only child has meant for her. Two years after 24-year-old Kyle Barber was killed, his mother still has moments where she expects him to come through her kitchen door for a visit. “He was my joy,” she said. She read her victim impact statement aloud in court late Friday afternoon (June 10), a few minutes after two men were convicted of the March 28, 2009 attack in an Aldergrove house that claimed her son’s life. Albert Jacob Jackman, 24, was convicted of first degree murder while Gregory Barrett, 32, was found guilty of manslaughter for being an accessory. Carol Barber told Justice Sunni Stromberg-Stein that she viewed her son as a “gift” from God, who answered her prayers when she and her then-husband could not conceive. She said Kyle was a loving and protective son who she never stopped loving even when he made what she called “wrong choices.” That was a reference to Kyle’s criminal record, which includes convictions for theft, assault, aggravated assault and threatening.
One pleads guilty in hammer attack DAN FERGUSON Times Reporter

Lincoln Boyd, 2, and his sister Mackenzie, 4, brought their three-month-old Shar Pei, Lofa, to Brookswood Summerfest celebrations on Saturday. The annual event included cake decorating and a pie eating contest. This year, the event was held in conjunction with the annual Safer Communities Day. Activities included a bike obstacle course, a chance to visit with members of the Township of Langley Fire Department and bike engraving.
Albert Jacob Jackman has pleaded guilty to his part in the brutal 2009 beating of a Langley man. The 24-year-old Jackman was scheduled to begin a jury trial in New Westminster Supreme Court on Monday (June 13) with coaccused Wesley Edward Kelemen, also 24. Instead, Jackman made a brief appearance to change his plea to guilty on one count of aggravated assault and one count of unlawful confinement in the gang-related attack that sent 29-year-old Tyler Willock to hospital with multiple fractures. A third count of assault with a weapon will be stayed. Jackman is in jail serving a life sentence imposed after his conviction Friday of first-degree murder in the death of Langley resident Kyle Barber (see related Times story on this page). He will return to court on Thursday. The assault trial is continuing with co-accused Kelemen, who is charged with one count of aggravated assault. The first two days were devoted to a hearing to decide whether certain evidence will be presented.

Disappearance Lafarge lands out of character contract Sixteen-year-old not seen since leaving her home on Saturday night Amanda (Mandy) Grace McPhee hasn’t been seen since she left her home in Langley’s Brookswood area on Saturday night, June 11, around 11:30 p.m. The 16-year-old is described as a good student who has never run away from home before. “Mandy’s family is extremely worried about her,” RCMP Cpl. Holly Marks said. “This disappearance is very out of character.” McPhee had been studying for her upcoming exams and does not suffer from any medical
conditions. “She was supposed to study with a friend on Sunday afternoon, but did not make the meeting and did not call,” said Marks. “As far as we can determine, she has not been in contact with any of her friends.” McPhee has blonde hair and blue eyes. She stands 5’3” and weighs around 160 pounds. She may have been wearing a black Gore-tex rain coat, black track pants with a thin yellow stripe on the side and black Converse running shoes at the time of her disappearance. Anyone with information about her whereabouts is asked to contact the Langley RCMP detachment at 604-532-3200.

Fox’s motion calling for update into RCMP probe of mayor defeated NATASHA JONES Times Reporter
The Township has no business interfering in an RCMP probe of Mayor Rick Green, a majority of council said on Monday. Deputy Mayor Bob Long, who was chairing the council meeting in Green’s absence, and Councillors Mel Kositsky, Steve Ferguson and Bev Dornan voted against a motion from Councillor Charlie Fox calling for an update on the investigation. “I think it’s inappropriate,” Kositsky said, adding that council does not get involved in RCMP investigations.
“When the RCMP is ready to bring forward information, they will advise us.”
Commissioner Ted Hughes found that allegations of conflict against Coleman (referred to in the literature received anonymously by Green) were without foundation. Green denied any wrongdoing. “If there is an investigation under way, I am more than happy to let it run its course. It will be proved that I did absolutely nothing wrong,” he said in January. He added: “It’s really sad and unfortunate that members of council are wasting their time on this. In my opinion, it’s a non-issue.” Green did not attend the meeting, and Councillors Kim Richter and Grant Ward were also absent. Green was absent due of the serious illness of a family member.
The Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure has awarded a $1,894,622 contract to Lafarge Canada to resurface 10.5 kilometres of Highway 13 (264 Street) from the Canada/US border to the Highway 1/264 Street interchange. The improvements will increase safety and ride comfort for drivers using this important Fraser Valley corridor by providing a smoother pavement surface. Regular resurfacing protects the road’s foundation by sealing out water and preventing potholing.This project will extend the lifespan of the highway and ensure the public’s infrastructure is maintained to a high standard. “This is a major route in our area; it connects Highway 1 with the Aldergrove border and is used by residents and tourists alike,” said Fort Langley-Aldergrove MLA Rich Coleman. “This project will extend the lifespan of the road, and make driving this section of highway safer and more comfortable,” he added. The resurfacing will be done from 0 Avenue to 56 Avenue at the interchange. Work is expected to begin this month and be finished by July, and motorists are urged to pay attention to all traffic control personnel when driving the corridor during this time. ••••• Hockey fans can watch the Stanley Cup champion crowned on the big screen at the Langley Events Centre.

Members of Langley Township council attending the conference were Councillors Bev Dornan, Mel Kositsky, Grant Ward, Bob Long, Steve Ferguson and Kim Richter. The Times regrets the error.

Just a quick reminder about the term “SPF” on sunscreen labels. If you have the type of skin that burns in 10 minutes in the sun with no protection, then applying a sunscreen with an SPF of 15 means that you’ll be protected 15 times longer (150 minutes). An SPF of 30 gives protection 30 times as long. There is not much more advantage using sunscreens with SPF of 50 or more. While we are on the subject of sun, some medications can cause a photosensitivity reaction when we are out in the sun. Our pharmacists are familiar with these interactions and will bring it to your attention with an auxiliary label and in-store counselling if it could affect you. Good communication between our pharmacists and our customers is a cornerstone of our service. Medications can be confusing and it’s our job to make it clear. ADVERTORIAL

Ever since Kyle died, Carol Barber says she has suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder that has left her anxious and hyper-vigilant with her “senses continually on high alert.” She is unable to work. “I have been cut off from the possibility of ever having grandchildren, among other things,” she said. She said her strong faith in God has helped her through her ordeal and offered forgiveness to the two men who took her son’s life and to their relatives in the courtroom. “There are many families affected by this tragedy,” Barber said. “We have all lost something very dear.” She said she hopes to speak directly to Jackman and Barrett through a court-administered reconciliation program for victims and offenders. “I would like to leave that door open,” she said. “I have no bitterness in my heart.” In finding the two men guilty as charged, Justice StrombergStein rejected defence claims

extreme devastation,” Jackman told them. “And I hope and pray that you can forgive me one day.” One male relative stormed out. Barber’s girlfriend was not in a forgiving mood, either. She complained, loud enough to be heard, that Jackman winked at her when he was making his apology. He asked to speak again, and said that the wink was meant for his family who was sitting in a row of seats directly in front of the girlfriend. Then he left, blowing his family a kiss. Barrett will remain free a few more days until his jail sentence is decided. Crown prosecutor Christopher McPherson wanted Barrett’s bail revoked, but the judge ruled it can remain in effect at least until a Thursday (June 16) court hearing in New Westminster Stromberg-Stein said she expects to impose a “term of incarceration” on Barrett. Prosecutor McPherson plans to ask for 10 years, a term that defence lawyer Neil Cobb is expected to argue is an unprecedented and excessive “double-
digit” sentence. A ban on publishing Jackman’s name in news reports was imposed at the beginning of the Friday hearing, after his lawyer argued it would otherwise prejudice a jury trial of his client on a separate unrelated criminal matter. The other trial ended Monday for Jackman, when he entered a guilty plea (see related Times story). Jackman’s connection to the Red Scorpions gang was raised more than once during the trial, but was not considered a deciding factor in the judge’s lengthy verdict, which took over three hours to deliver. The girlfriend testified that Jackman showed Barber a Red Scorpions tattoo on his wrist and warned him that he was dealing with the notorious gang, but Jackman denied saying that. Jackman, meanwhile, claimed that he only hit Barber in the face following the struggle over the shotgun because Barber had claimed he worked with the late Kevin LeClair, a Surrey Red Scorpions associate member and friend of Jackman’s, who was gunned down in a Langley strip mall in February of 2009.

Strike may cripple vote
Learn from HST fiasco
T
he rotating postal strike isn’t inconveniencing too many people, because most people don’t rely on the mail the way they once did. However, it may prove to be a big factor in the referendum on the HST. Voting packages are now going out in the mail, and the last package is supposed to be delivered by Friday, June 24. That seems to be a hopelessly optimistic timetable at the present, given that no one knows where the postal workers will strike next, and the fact that Canada Post has reduced mail delivery to three days a week from five. On Tuesday, Canada Post struck in Toronto. Much of the country’s mail goes through Toronto, including mail that originates in B.C. It isn’t clear whether the HST referendum packages go there or not, but the modern mail delivery system is built on routing large volumes of mail through specific sorting plants. It is entirely possible that all or most of the voting packages go through Toronto before being delivered to B.C. addresses. A rotating strike is likely to be called in Vancouver sometime within the next few weeks, as it is one of a few large Canadian cities that haven’t been struck. Victoria has already been hit once, and will likely be hit again. Other major cities like Surrey, Kelowna, Kamloops and Prince George are also likely to be struck by the Canadian Union of Postal Workers. The referendum timetable calls for all completed voting packages to be in the hands of Elections BC by Friday, July 22. While there will be opportunities to drop off the completed voting packages (including a location at Willowbrook Shopping Centre), and that may be the best bet for those who want to ensure that their votes are counted, some people will return the packages through the mail system. This is particularly likely when considering that many take vacations in late June and early July and won’t be going to great lengths to find a place where a completed referendum voting package can be dropped off. The vote on the future of the HST is a very important one. Not only is it crucial in determining B.C. tax policy, it is seen by many as an opportunity to strike a blow for democracy and public consultation. While the government badly handled the HST issue for much of the past two years, it is now consulting the public in a meaningful way. It would be most unfortunate if that consultation is crippled by a postal strike.

n May 4, a group referred to as the independent panel released a report on the difference between the HST and the combined GST/PST. This panel included the CEO of a large credit union, a Simon Fraser University school of public policy professor, the Canada West Foundation chair, and British Columbia’s former auditor general. The panelists are not political heavyweights, but their credentials embody vast knowledge and experience in public finance. Their report offers neither good news nor bad news; it is a clean display of relevant and referenced facts, and it gives the names and affiliation of every person consulted (http://nlc.bc.ca/library/Its_your_ decision.pdf). Who first proposed the idea of harmonizing sales taxes in British Columbia and when the decision was made to go ahead is of no concern today. What remains a concern is the way the decision was first presented to the public. There is more to democracy than free and fair elections. Equally important is that elected politicians show respect for the maturity, responsibility, views, opinions, and preferences of the citizens they were elected to serve. Public policy is not merchandise; it is not something to be sold as one would sell a new line of lip gloss. Democratic governments are compelled to engage the public, to acquaint it with a proposed policy’s rationale and objectives, and to win broad public consent before making HST-style decisions. Governing by these principles is neither difficult nor expensive; it is both democratic and effective. The independent panel has demonstrated that it can be done. The B.C. government’s strategy to sell the HST as if it were a new line of lip gloss created a major political fiasco. continued, PAGE 8 The Langley Times is a member of the British Columbia Press Council, a self-regulatory body governing the province’s newspaper industry.

HST will pay off for B.C. in long run Editor: Now that the referendum for the HST is coming closer, there seems to be many more letters in the paper advising us on what to do. Seemingly, most want to vote ‘yes’ and go back to the PST system. For those who don’t have the desire to go to the website to find some answers, here are some of the facts, not opinions.These were taken from the independent report (written from people who know finance and business). They say the HST will make business more competitive, reduce administrative costs, reduce the cost of producing goods, and create more jobs. I keep hearing about the restaurant industry suffering, but their revenues have also increased three per cent, the same as in the rest of Canada.
I think the problem with our society is that we all want instant gratification. If we don’t see a benefit immediately, we aren’t in favour. We also think we are entitled to get everything and not have to pay a bit for it. We complain about having long wait times for surgeries, about small schools being closed down, about funding cuts to programs, yet when the government sees an opportunity to fix this problem long term, we complain about that too. With the rate going down to 10 per cent, it will even cost us less for most things than under the PST/GST system. Yes, when you go out for dinner, or get a haircut, you pay an extra few dollars. Does that warrant going back to the PST system and costing taxpayers billions of dollars? Are
we really willing to put our economy on a downward trend, and fork over billions, to go back to an old system — just to teach the government a lesson? It sounds a little petty to me, and not at all money-wise. Just as businesses need to keep their companies current in order to stay competitive, so does the government. Instead of thinking only about ourselves, maybe we should look at the big picture and see what benefits the province the most. In the long run, that will benefit you the most as well. Please go to the website, check out the facts, look at the big picture and vote ‘no’ to going to back to the old ways. Angela de Boer, Aldergrove
Services will continue to cost more under HST Editor: Well here we are again, dealing with the HST. I don’t know about you, but I’ve already said no to the HST — as did over 700,000 people in the province who signed the Anti-HST petition in 2010. They didn’t want it either. Now, as if that never happened, we’ve all received the “HST Referendum Voters Guide.” It contains statements which imply that we’ll completely ruin our future as a province if we don’t accept the HST. Please be very certain — the most important result of keeping the HST is that you will pay tax on products and services. Forever. And so will your children. As long as there’s
an HST in the province of British Columbia, anyone who needs a product or service in this province will be paying tax on both: products and services. It’s like having a provincial GST. It doesn’t matter if the premier lowers the HST to 10 per cent or any per cent. Instead of paying tax on only the products you buy, you will pay that tax on your residential phone line; the Internet; the plumber, electrician, or carpenter.You will pay when you park your car; go to a movie; golf; ski; camp at a campsite; travel by air, rail and bus; go out for a meal; get a massage; get a haircut; buy vitamins; newspapers; bikes or get your shoes repaired.
You’ll be paying that tax on just about every aspect of your life. Do you want to do that? When you get that referendum ballot which asks this question: “Are you in favour of extinguishing the HST (Harmonized Sales Tax) and reinstating the PST (Provincial Sales Tax) in conjunction with the GST (Goods and Services Tax),” circle the ‘yes’. Scratch out the ‘no’ and do whatever you need to do to say yes, we want to go back to the PST/GST we had before July 1, 2010. It’s that simple. And it’s up to you — literally. Annette Gallatin, Trail
Tourism industry backs a 10 per cent HST Editor: It’s no secret that the tourism industry in B.C. has struggled with how to respond to the harmonized sales tax. However, in light of the proposed two per cent reduction, it is clear to the Tourism Industry Association of B.C. that the HST will be good for B.C.’s tourism economy in the long run. This was not black or white for us. As soon as the new HST was announced our association, which represents all of the major tourism industries in B.C., immediately began work, not to oppose the new tax, but to identify and implement ways to mitigate the effects of the tax on our sector. Part of our challenge was that the impacts of the new harmonized tax were different for different parts of tourism both by business
type and by location: hotel prices went down, the cost of restaurant meals went up, and businesses closer to Alberta, which does not have a provincial sales tax, were particularly sensitive to HST. Like other concerned sectors of the B.C. economy, we noted decreased consumer confidence around the time HST was implemented in B.C. and Ontario in July 2010. This occurred in the early recovery period after a recession. We have been relieved to see that domestic consumer confidence has begun to trend in a positive direction. We are very pleased that the provincial government has promised to reduce the HST by two per cent and is actively championing improvements to a federal visitor rebate
program that will encourage foreign buyers to choose Canada and B.C. We now share the growing concern of the broader business community over the uncertainty and considerable financial difficulties that a move back to the old PST-GST system would create for B.C. The provincial government has listened to British Columbians and we are confident they are earnest in their commitments to reduce consumer costs and help impacted sectors like tourism grow into the future. Now is not the time to take a backwards course. A 10 per cent HST is the way forward for tourism. Stephen Regan, president Tourism Industry Association of B.C., Vancouver
Agriculture benefits from a harmonized sales tax Editor: The HST is helping farmers and ranchers. I have been ranching in B.C. for 24 years. My family and I run an average-sized ranch with one employee. With our HST savings, I was able to give him a raise, as well as reinvest in our day-to-day operations. The HST The
has made running a ranch much easier. The HST is more efficient. If the HST were to be replaced with the old PST/GST system, it would be burdensome for us and would increase our expenses. As chair of the finance and taxation committee of the British Columbia Cattlemen’s
Association, I know the HST is good for B.C.’s agriculture industry. I ask everyone to please do what is right for agriculture; vote No on the ballot so that we may keep the HST. Ron Buchanan, Charlie Lake
ASK THREE TIMES Editor: Where does our taxpayer money go? To Statistics Canada. Not only do we have to sit down and answer these questions and submit them, but then the government does not do its job in processing them. The government then hires people to phone taxpayers to ask these same questions, which we filled out on paper and submitted already. It doesn’t stop there. After doing this, the government then uses our money to pay for poor young students to go door to door to ask the same questions. Last week, I witnessed a young man trying to do his job, but due to the government’s lack of co-ordination, he was abused by angry taxpayers.The people we should be mad at is our government. It is wasting taxpayers’ money trying to gather statistics that aren’t processed. This causes their employees to be abused. If we have that much extra money to spare, why not lower our taxes? The government needs a money management course. Katrina Woodward, Langley
HAVE TO VOTE ‘YES’ Editor: Re: Selling HST to the ‘me’ generation (B.C. Views, The Times, June 3). From ‘my’ perspective, Tom Fletcher omitted some key points. The main stumbling block is the way the government brought it to life. Lies and deceit. This “revenue neutral” tax is going to be a boost of $1 billion for the year to government coffers. This is taxpayers’ money, as was the $1.6 billion from the federal government. The governments of this country have it backwards when they think they can just up the ante when they need more revenue to cover their outlandish spending. They should be looking at reducing expenditures, instead of increasing the taxes. Heaven help us if this HST boondoggle gets the NDP elected next time out. I think the populace has to vote yes in the referendum to show government that we have been pushed far enough. If, as Fletcher suggests, haircuts and restaraunt meals stay taxed if we go back to the PST, that might cause a bigger kerfuffle that this one. Jim Anderson, Victoria

Obsessions
A passion for Wine & Food by Theresa Harrett Wine Consultant Langley Liquor Store Located at Fraser Crossing Mall
www.wineobsessions.com m Don’t you just love living when the sun is shining, the Canucks are winning, the owers are blooming, the golf balls are biting just where they’re supposed to and you crack open a bottle of Meritage on the sixth hole and ďŹ nd out that the liquid you’re drinking is fast becoming your new favorite wine. Who knew that a label donning a sly fox dressed as a man in the middle of the night could be so delicious? Moon Curser Boarder Vines 2009 vintage is all that and more. The wine is a replicated Bordeaux blend consisting of six varietals, Cabernet Sauvignon, Carmenere, Malbec, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, all of which are in order of percentage. The grapes are all grown in an assorted ďŹ ve Osoyoos East Bench Vineyards. The name “Moon Curserâ€? lends itself to a bit of a history lesson regarding border smuggling back in the days of the 1860’s gold rush era. The miners working claims in Osoyoos would try to smuggle gold into the U.S. without leaving a little for the guards on their way through. If the Moon was out it made smuggling an almost impossible task and gunďŹ ghts would ensue. On the back of the label the words that are written as such “Damn you moon for lighting my run tonight. This gold is mine, and no border agent is going to tax me.â€? The avor proďŹ le of Border Vines is an inviting taste sensation consisting of ripe local blackberries, dark plump cherries with a dollop of cassis. The Carmenere (while not a typical grape varietal used in a Bordeaux blend) adds notes of toasted black pepper complimented by sweet dried spices. The ďŹ nish of this wine has just enough tannin on the back end to warrant pairing with some of my favorite dishes this season. At the time we happened to be nibbling on a variety of cheeses, beef prosciutto, thin crisp wafers and dark chocolate. None of which are in order of consumption but all of which tasted elegantly delicious with this wine. I can’t say my golf swing improved but the game itself was fantastic. Congratulations to Blasted Church which recently won “Best Red in Canadaâ€? at the 2011 All Canadian Wine Competition. If you have never sampled a bottle from this winery, I am afraid you are missing out. The artwork on the label in itself is worth checking out even if it is minutely contentious to some of the population. A small sample of this wine is enough to make believers of the entire congregation. Blasted has done an amazing job developing the character of the winery while keeping the liquid in all of their bottles pure, uncomplicated and delicious. Even the youngest of pallets can pick up the essence of chocolate, vanilla, and coffee with a bouquet leading with cherry, blackberries, plum, and vanilla. There is also a diatribe of tasting notes for this wine best left to wine snobs and judges. I say make it simple and try the wine and while you’re at it check out their web-site it is fun and informative, better yet, buy the wine and have it tonight. Spark up that BBQ, sear your favorite part of the cow add a pinch of delicious side dishes and you will have a match made in heaven. On Fathers Day Gentlemen, be sure to put your feet up and enjoy the day with glass in hand.
So join us over at the Langley Liquor Store Unit 5 - 20811 Fraser Crossing Mall.

The consequences included the first successful citizen-initiated petition in the the province’s history, to be followed with a referendum, the resignation of the premier which in turn caused the resignation of the leader of the opposition, two party leadership contests, and one byelection. It was only after all this waste of money, effort, and goodwill that sanity gained the upper hand, and resources were applied to establish an independent panel, assigning to it the task of producing a comprehensive, unbiased, and factual report on the HST. Why was such a report not commissioned, produced, and widely circulated before the government announced the decision to harmonize sales taxes? Surely this scheme was not concocted by a couple of politicians sipping a latte in an airport lounge. And yet, the government’s flippant announcement that the HST would be revenueneutral and create hundreds of thousands of jobs — both nonsensical claims — leads one to conclude that the decision was made on the basis of sketchy calculations jotted down on a napkin. The other possibility is that the government knew the facts and decided that the best way to sell the deal to the ignorant masses was to exaggerate the positive and fudge the rest. Neither option does much to raise the public’s confidence and trust in government. The money and effort expended on the HST fiasco will not have been a waste if the government has learned a lesson from the experience. The citizens who elected you are responsible adults. We are not simpletons; we do not need your paternalistic guidance. When next you see a need to rethink a major public policy — education, health, environment, transportation — remember the HST. Resist the temptation to sell solutions. Establish instead independent panels to produce factual information and use that information to engage us. Consider our views before you make decisions that affect all our lives in the long-term. Referendum ballots, barring any disruption if the postal dispute continues, will be appearing in provincial mail boxes beginning next week. They must be returned by July 22. Voting is expected to take several weeks with results being released in late August. —Terrace Standard (Black Press)

Amazing fundraiser Trio of churches mount unique race for charity Thirty-one students from three Willoughby churches, Mountainview Alliance, Jericho Ridge Community, and the Willows Community Church, set out early on Saturday, June 11 to compete for their favourite charity in the Amazing Race 2011 – Youth Charity Edition. The students were asked to raise money for their favourite charity, however, the conditions were, that the winning team of the Amazing Race would receive all of the donated money for their registered Canadian charity, and so the students were motivated to compete hard in 23 challenges that tested their mental, physical and emotional endurance throughout the day.

Beating victim hospitalized Fractures and puncture wounds required extensive surgery from PAGE 1

Details of the voir dire, or trial within a trial, cannot be published because it took place without the jury present. The charges against Jackman and Kelemen were laid after Willock was seriously injured at a residence in the 21000 block of 86 Avenue on March 8, 2009. He was reportedly attacked with a sledgehammer and suffered multiple fractures and puncture wounds to his arms and legs that required extensive surgery and a lengthy hospital stay. At the time, the provincial gang task force said there were significant links between the assault on Willock, who was described as a gang associate, and ongoing gang investigations. According to police, Willock was the target of a previous attack, a drive-by shooting on Feb. 16, 2009 in Surrey outside the T-Barz show lounge on 137 Street near 104A Avenue. He was riding in a Range Rover with another man and two women that stopped at the intersection near the club around midnight on a Monday. Another SUV approached, and the people in it opened fire. The bullet-riddled vehicle fled to Langley, where the driver was rushed to hospital with a bullet wound in his left shoulder. He was treated and released. Investigators said the victim was an associate of the Red Scorpions gang. Five people have since been charged with attempted murder in the SUV attack, including alleged gang boss Barzan Tilli-Choli, and associates Aram Ali and Karwan Saed. Tilli-Choli was described by police as a highranking member of the United Nations (UN) gang, which fighting over control of the Lower Mainland drug trade with the rival Red Scorpions. Two other people face less serious charges in connection with the Surrey shooting.
Albert Jacob Jackman Sarah Jane Trebble of West Vancouver, 28, is charged with one count of occupying a vehicle knowing there was a firearm present, while Karwan Saed, 32, of Burnaby, is charged with accessory after the fact to attempted murder. In an unrelated matter, in April of this year Willock pleaded guilty to three firearms charges. He will be sentenced in July.

Langley College students face commutes, credit loss DAN FERGUSON Times Reporter
Some Langley College students face a choice between significantly longer commutes or more time in classrooms to complete their studies as a result of the shutdown of the 28-year-old educational institution. On May 14, the private college told students it will close Aug. 31 because the cash-strapped Langley School District has cut funding for outside programs for adults like the early childhood education courses taught at the college. Full-time students will have enough time to complete their studies, but part-timers, about half the 250 students enrolled at the college, will not. One of the part-time students, Aldergrove resident Stacey Fleming, said students were recently told they can transfer to other colleges, but some of the other colleges won’t give them full credit for their Langley courses. That will mean extra hours in
the classroom retaking subjects she has already studied. Only “one or two” of the other colleges appear willing to give the Langley students full credit, Fleming said.
“This will be a much bigger commute for me.” Stacey Fleming student
“It looks like I will be transferring to [a school in] Delta if I am accepted as their program is identical to ours,” Fleming told The Times. “This will be a much bigger commute for me and as it stands [the Delta school only offers] part-time evening classes which I am not too happy about, but I really want my certification.” Craig Spence, spokesperson for the Langley school district,
INJURED
said every effort was being made to place the displaced students. Their grades will be archived at the school district offices for prospective employers to review and sealed transcripts will also be provided. But the district can’t promise the Langley College students that “their needs will be met 100 per cent” Spence said. The early childhood education program at Langley College trained students, most of them from from Langley, Abbotsford and Surrey, to work in daycare or preschools. The college was recently given an excellent rating by the Private Career Training Institutions Agency (PCTIA), the provincial government body that audits privately-owned learning institutions in B.C. A November 2010 review of Langley College by PCTIA auditors reported the “students are receiving excellent Early Childhood Education and Health Care Assistants career training in a well-equipped and well-managed educational facility.”

256 St. signal not needed, council told Valley Ball Hockey Association
NATASHA JONES Times Reporter
Would like to thank the following sponsors for their generosity & support in helping make it possible for more than 1150 children to play organized ball hockey in the Langley area. Without the financial support from all of you we would not be able to provide these kids an awesome sport to play and the opportunity to have fun this season!

With one exception, every major intersection on Fraser Highway from Langley City to Aldergrove is controlled with traffic signals. The 256 Street intersection is not, and last month a local resident lobbied council to install traffic lights at the rural crossroads. After Janet Ingram-Johnson came before council “pleading for common sense before someone gets hurt,” council ordered a report from its traffic engineers. They concluded that there isn’t enough volume to justify lights, and that after left-turn lanes were installed in 2005, the number of collisions dropped to an average of 4.8 per year.

that lasted seven hours, only two pedestrians crossed the road at the intersection. Noting that school buses heading for Coghlan Elementary have to cross the road without the benefit of traffic lights, Ingram-Johnson said that at busy times of the day it is “difficult and dangerous” to cross Fraser Highway. She sometimes must wait five to 10 minutes to turn from 256 Street onto the highway, she told council. Councillor Steve Ferguson agreed that the intersection “has been a problem for years.” Fraser Highway is a Major Road Network street and as such the Township would require TransLink approval for improvements, even if the transportation authority refused to pay for them. Cordeiro assured council that the intersection would continue to be monitored.

tion engineering, said that over the past five years, “only six collisions may have been preventable with the installation of lights.” A rate of 1.2 preventable collisions per year “does not meet the minimum guideline for the installation of a traffic signal,” Cordeiro wrote. Traffic and accident data, and the small number of pedestrians, do not warrant signals, he said. Ingram-Johnson had told council that the flashing light above the intersection is not enough, and that full signals and a crosswalk are needed. Ingram-Johnson noted that there is a bus stop east of the intersection, but no marked crosswalk or pedestrian light. People have to run across Fraser Highway which has a single lane going east, a single westbound lane and a centre lane for left turns in both directions. Cordeiro said that during a traffic count

Dave Stark seeks Township council seat Although he first announced several months ago that he would seek a seat as a Langley Township councillor in the Nov. 19 election, Dave Stark officially launched his campaign with a May 25 gathering that drew approximately 40 supporters. Stark is eyeing to serve 25 years, not a single term of three years. “I was able to share my preliminary platform, information about my life, and my vast and diverse work experience,� said Stark, who is the executive director of Langley Meals on Wheels. He calls the election “a watershed election� that will either set the Township on an exciting new path to the future, or keep it stagnant by maintaining the status quo
FROM TRAINING WHEELS TO TRAILS
created by much of the current council and councils of the past. “Since I have never been one to conform or rest on the status quo, running for a seat to create this change is something that I must do as a concerned resident. My decision and passion for my hometown is backed up with the significant knowledge, skills, and education that I have acquired over a long and varied professional and personal life. He said that having worked for almost 30 years with the nonprofit sector, 20 years in municipal government, and being the owner of several businesses, he is confident that “no other candidate will have the scope and diversity of experience that I
have moving towards the election this fall.� “I am running because I know that I will bring experience, respect, integrity, humility, teamwork, and a fresh perspective to a council that appears to struggle with many of these characteristics,� he said. “I am more concerned about people in the Township than I am about the politicking that goes on in chambers. Political infighting over the past two and one-half years has been much of the focus for the majority of council, and not on the people where it should be.� He added, “During my career I have developed a credible reputation as a listener, community builder, doer, and an outside-of-the-

box thinker.� The main planks of his platform are people and democracy, fiscal responsibility, rural Langley, community planning and building, and transportation. Apart from his role with Langley Meals on Wheels, Stark is affiliated with a number of organizations, including the Langley Horse Federation and Rotary Club of Langley Sunrise. A member of Fort Langley Evangelical Free Church, Stark is a founder and chair of Langley Chamber of Community Services. He is a hobby farmer, consultant, and freelance writer. His website is www.davestarkforlangley.com, which links to his Facebook Fan Page.

And if you think they pay income or other taxes on their home businesses, I have a 1973 Pinto you might want to test drive. The subject of used cars came up last week when NDP leader Adrian Dix belatedly launched his own anti-HST tour. Apparently he’s having second thoughts about letting Bill Vander Zalm set NDP tax policy based on a world government conspiracy theory. Dix’s first media event was staged in a Burnaby kitchen. The homeowner dismissed the $350 HST rebate he has been offered to offset costs such as summer camp for his two kids, saying that will be gone several times over if he buys a used car. This clearly implies that HST has been extended to used cars. This is the sort of claim that drives much of the rage against it, as people simply scan their bills for those hated three letters. There are signs that people understand their taxes better, however. An Angus Reid poll last week found that 58 per cent of British Columbians now prefer to pay taxes on their consumption rather than their income.

The Seasons Go Round and Round Jim McGregor Langley Times A dry stick snapped and the brambles shivered as a small animal scurried down the bank toward the creek. “Probably a rabbit” he thought. There used to be all sorts of animals sharing his bush, but now, not so many. How long had it been since he’d seen a pheasant? Less bush and more houses had chased the deer and the coyotes deeper into last bit of forest that remained. Not like when he first bought the place. A fall morning like this would see herons beside his pond or deer at the edge of the trees nibbling his lawn. He dumped the potato skins and orange peels from the plastic ice cream bucket into the compost. This was his big chore of the day now, the walk out to the compost. He set his cane against the fence wire and leaned back on the box. He would have to rest to catch his breath and gather strength to get back to the house. He stretched his back and gazed up at the tops of the fir and spruce trees poking into the sky. Forty feet tall, they stood like guards at attention on either side of his property. He could remember placing them in the ground as seedlings. Pounding in stakes to keep them straight and giving out endless warnings to rambunctious boys
not to disturb them. As he watched, one of the boys darted out of his memory for a long pass, another faded to the left to catch a long fly ball, both of them barely missing the young trees. The picture was so vivid he almost yelled at them to be careful. They had always complained about the obstruction the seedlings presented. In their youth, they could not see the future he was seeing for the trees or the invisible stakes he had placed beside the boys to keep them growing straight. As they disappeared into the mist, he realized that they were now as mature as the trees, protecting seedlings of their own. Yet, they still found time to stop by, not so much to visit any more, but to cut lawns, prune trees, exercise the weed eater and plant and water the garden. The jobs he used to do. He turned to look at the garden, almost finished planting but that was a tedious job now. How many bags of vegetables had he loaded into the trunks of visitor’s cars over the years? He watched himself guide the roto-tiller in straight black furrows in the spring. He remembered the days he would be walking out from the corn behind the wheel barrow, arms straining with a load of pumpkins,
marrows, squash and squealing grandkids just in time for Halloween. Now, a plastic pail of table scraps was a full load. He squeezed a gnarled hand around the cane and lifted himself up to a steady balance. As he headed back to the house he stopped to watch himself go by astride the riding mower in the summer sun. He could smell the sweat and the gas and the oil. He looked around and remembered how good it looked, mowed and trimmed, and the satisfaction of a job well done. He continued back to the house. He knew she was watching from the kitchen window. She trusted his steel hips less than he did. If he went outside, she would find laundry to fold, dishes to dry or phone calls to make, chores that would let her watch from the window. She never came right out and said they should sell, that would be his decision. She would once in awhile mention that a call should be made to Carolyn, their realtor friend, just to get an idea of what it might be worth. He knew that call would start the snowball rolling down the hill. As he reached the back of the garage he turned slowly and thought he could trace a smell of smoke to the fire pit. There the family gathered around on a late October
days to clean up the branches and debris, roast wieners and talk until the embers of the fire died late in the evening. The smoke cleared and he was amazed to see the sun was fully out and streaming down on the alders and cottonwood at the back of the property. They were alive and swaying effortlessly in the wind. The grass was suddenly greener and the gentle breeze wafted one memory after another across the scene. An empty lot became a park like yard. A foundation soon supported a house which became a loving home to a large extended family. The feeling of loss was slowly replaced with a huge sense of accomplishment and completion. He realized the seasons of his life were turning once more. It was time to move on. He wiped his eyes and nose with the ever present hanky in his back pocket and headed up the ramp to the back door. Inside, he placed the cap and jacket on their respective hooks, set his cane in the corner and shuffled over to the coffee pot. He poured a cup and quietly stirred in the milk. Looking out the window, as the season passed, with an almost indiscernible catch in his voice he said, “Well Mother, I guess you should give Carolyn a call today.”

Langley’s Seniors of the Year for 2011, Allan Thain and Alice Kennedy, will be feted at the centre on Monday with a reception and on Wednesday with a formal dinner. It is all part of the centre’s annual Seniors Week celebrations. Kennedy has been an active volunteer for a number of years, at the LSRC, and can be found most days, either helping out at the front desk or or in the cafeteria. “The staff consider Alice such a helpful all around volunteer that they can ask her to help in just about any way,� wrote her nominators Jean and Alan Gregson.

book sales and other events and has helped out at Langley Community Days and the annual Terry Fox Run. After playing doubles badminton with her husband for more than 25 years, Kennedy remains an active table tennis player, bringing home multiple medals from the B.C. Seniors Games. “Alice is a wonderful woman, with a great attitude toward life, and a faithful, dedicated volunteer for her community,” wrote the Gregsons. “Alice takes leadership, is willing to help in any capacity, is fun and builds up others,” added the Senior Centre’s volunteer co-ordinator, Janice McTaggart. As an active Rotarian and Langley Lodge board member, Thain has been involved in a number of community projects in the five years he has called Langley home, but he is perhaps best known for his tireless promotion of the arts. He is the president of the Langley Arts Council and in 2009, he founded Bard in the Valley — a theatre company which mounts a Shakespeare production each summer in Douglas Park and offers youth theatre workshops, specifically for at-risk children. He has also been recognized on numer-
ous occasions by the theatre community for his contributions, both as an actor and director. Thain was flexing his volunteer muscles long before he came to Langley, however, working with the United Way, YWMCA National Special Olympics and numerous community agencies. Thain was nominated by Diane Gendron, also an active member of Langley’s theatre community. “I’ve known Allan for several years and I am constantly impressed by his vision, inclusiveness and talent,” Gendron wrote. “Allan has an infectious energy, he gives his all to his projects and he’s a terrific team builder.” The 73-year-old Thain said Rotary’s motto of “service above self” is the best way to describe his motivation. “I do it because I love the theatre and the arts,” he said. “I am really honoured they would think of me.” The accolade came as a surprise to Thain who was quick to share the credit. “This is an award also, for the people who work with me,” he said, “the young people who are in the plays, and the young at heart.”

Writing Contest Finalists Share Stories of Career Changes After 50 Langley, BC- Five inspiring stories of career changes after 50 are part of the Impowerage Magazine’s “It’s Never Too Late to Change Careers” writing contest. The finalists’ new careers range from an actor, professional magician, artistic entrepreneur, storyteller to dance instructor. Their reasons for changing careers are just as diverse. Some were forced to change careers after the recession eliminated their previous jobs while others made a conscious decision to explore their passions. Dr. Carolyn Anderson, the founder of Impowerage, explains their reasoning behind the contest. “Part of our mission is to redefine aging and we wanted to reinforce that it’s never too late to do anything. I think people who read the contestants’ stories will be inspired to go after their own dream jobs no matter what their age and also realize that a layoff doesn’t have to the end of the world.” It’s an important message in an uncertain job market. One finalist, Christine Henry, was devastated when the recession caused her to lose her dream job. She found it extremely difficult to find a job in her 50s and struggled with the loss of her identity. She began taking art classes in or-
der to fill her time and soon discovered her artistic side. She is now running her own business helping others decorate, stage and de-clutter their homes. Another contestant, Gerry Hennessey, was a successful but bored real-estate agent. He made a list of everything that interested him on his 50th birthday. One after another he pursued his hobbies and passions. He earned a black belt in Akido, studied psychology and appeared in a TV series. He also turned his magic hobby into a career as an entertainer at corporate events. To read the full story of the career changes of Gerry, Christine and the others finalists visit Impowerage.com. A panel of judges selected the top five entries from stories sent in from around the world. Readers can vote for their favorite entries by Friday, June 17th. The finalist with the most votes will be announced on Wednesday, June 22nd. Impowerage is an online magazine for active older adults that publishes articles on health, wellness, fitness and lifestyle. Impowerage was founded by Langley opthamologist, Dr. Carolyn Anderson, in order to raise money for macular degeneration.

Bloom is back in the Fort Times reporter
After making its debut in March, the Bloom Market returns on June 19, with a Father’s Day art and design market at the Fort Langley Community Hall. Organizer Sarah Barrett will once again welcome up to 50 artists and designers from around the Lower Mainland —some emerging and some more established — who will display their work and offer demonstrations to the public. The market will also have live entertainment throughout the day as well as a market café. “Langley and the surrounding communities are home to many talented artists and designers,” said Barrett. “The Bloom Artist & Designer Market is a unique venue in the Fraser Valley where the community and its artists can regularly connect. “Visitors can enjoy a cup of coffee or some food from the café, listen to live music and chat with the artists.” Among the Langley talent featured at Bloom will be Stephanie Dieleman, who worked as an

Operating on a seasonal basis, Bloom Market will be open on the third Sunday in June, September and November, from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Admission is $2 for adults.

Ryan Robinson is ‘Arthur’ and Sue Sparlin plays ‘Grandma’ in the Langley Players production of Lost in Yonkers.
Lost in Yonkers returns The Langley Players Drama Club is set to stage two encore performances of its multiple award-winning production Lost in Yonkers. The play recently won top honours in the Fraser Valley Zone Festival and will now be competing against seven other plays from around the province at the Theatre BC Mainstage Festival in Kamloops June 29 to July 6. “Our fantastic team is working very hard to prepare for Mainstage in Kamloops on July 4,” said director Mary Renvall. “And as part of this preparation we are planning two additional performances.” Club President Angela Bell is equally elated. “We feel truly honoured to be representing Langley and the Fraser Valley in competition with the best of each Theatre BC Zone,” she said. “We are grateful for the support we
have received from the community, and in particular we would like to thank the Township of Langley for the Community Grant which will help to defray the costs of participating in this event. “The original show was largely sold out and these additional performances will give patrons who missed the original show another chance.” Lost in Yonkers will be performed on June 23 and 24 at the Langley Playhouse, 4307 200 St. in Brookswood. Show time is 8 p.m. All tickets will be $20 – slightly higher than normal Langley Players’ ticket prices to help cover the costs of taking the play to Mainstage. Reserve at 604-534-7469 or online at reservations@langleyplayers.com. Visit www.langleyplayers.com for more information.

Former national rugby team player and Brookswood graduate Chris Pack spoke to the district’s high school rugby players last week (June 7) as part of the second annual Langley School’s Commissioners Fifteen dinner. Pack spoke about the commitment and dedication needed to succeed. “Rugby is a unique sport that can take you many places and (you can) meet many amazing people,” he said.“So I hope this is just the beginning of your rugby accomplishments and experiences.” The top rugby teams and players in the district were honoured at the dinner, which was held at Walnut Grove Secondary. Aldergrove Community Secondary was awarded both the Bill Turpin Shield (senior boys) and the Art Smith Shield (junior boys). The Walnut Grove Gators were presented with the Gord Dennison Shield as the district’s top senior girls squad. And the Marvin Foss Shield went to the Betty Gilbert Raptors for the top Grade 8 boys’ team. As for individual honours, Aldergrove’s Connor Hunter was presented the Bill Turpin Award.

A perfect weekend pushed the Langley Blaze win streak to six games and top spot in the B.C. Premier Baseball League. The Blaze used an offensive onslaught on Saturday, clubbing the North Delta Blue Jays 13-2 and 8-1, and then won a pair of close contests on Sunday, 3-2 and 2-1 over the Parksville Royals. All four games were at McLeod Park. The team leads the U18 baseball league with a 25-7 mark. ••••• The Langley Jr. Blaze offence was smoking as they walloped the host Parksville Jr. Royals by a combined score of 28-2. The U16 baseball teams met at Parksville’s Royals Field for a doubleheader on Saturday. ••••• One week after their worse loss of the season, the Langley Thunder exacted a measure of revenge, winning their rematch with the Burnaby Lakers 7-5. The senior A lacrosse team hosted the Lakers on Saturday night at the Langley Events Centre. The Thunder also hit the road on Sunday, but could not extend their winning streak, falling 11-10 to the Maple Ridge Burrards at Planet Ice. Langley has a 2-4-1 mark in the Western Lacrosse Association. North Surrey Secondary took spot at the recent B.C. High School Dyno Day Shootout held at Langley’s Mopac Auto Supply. ••••• A five-goal deficit was too much to overcome as the Langley Jr.Thunder dropped an 11-7 decision to the New Westminster Jr. Salmonbellies. The junior A lacrosse squads squared off on Sunday night at the Langley Events Centre and the Thunder (5-7) were looking for a second straight victory after a 10-8 road win on Friday over the Port Coquitlam Jr. Saints.
