Miss Canada is heading to the other side of the world in her continuing battle against human trafficking. by Heather Colpitts hcolpitts@langleyadvance.com

On Saturday, Langley’s Tara Teng will be the Community Day parade marshall. On Sunday, Teng, who is Miss Canada, jets off to Asia to lobby for an end to human trafficking. Teng will be in Asia June 19-30, travelling with her dad, Terry, and as part of a team of abolitionists with Traffick Jam and World Orphans, two organizations that work to end human trafficking. It’s not the kind of glamour that comes to mind when people think of a pageant winner but Teng has been committed to being a voice for victims of sex trafficking and child sex trafficking. “Human trafficking is the fastest growing crime on the planet, with Thailand and Cambodia notorious as sex trafficking hotspots,” she told the Langley Advance. “We will be spending our time with front line antihuman trafficking organizations in the red light districts of the major cities in Thailand and

Cambodia. Most of our time will be spent directly with the victims of sex-trafficking and child sex-trafficking. It is going to be an intense trip.” On Saturday, June 25, she will be speaking at the MTV Exit Concert in Chang Mai, Thailand. MTV Exit is a campaign to increase public awareness about human trafficking. “I hope that I can use my passion and dedication to end human trafficking to inspire others to do the same,” Teng said. “We need to all stand together and declare that we will not tolerate exploitation of human beings in any capacity and that we will do whatever we can to see human trafficking stop. It happens in Thailand and it happens in Canada as well... and enough is enough.” Teng knows this will not be an easy trip and she expects an emotional wallop. “I am expecting my heart to be shattered and rebuilt,” she said. “The sex trafficking of women and children is not something that you can come face-toface with and then walk away unchanged.” What she learns there will help Teng in her work back in Canada where the stories she learns in Asia will help people here understand the gravity of the global situation.

Education

No vote on policy to ‘muzzle’ public comments Langley school trustees will wait to vote on a policy that would limit public questions at board meetings. by Heather Colpitts hcolpitts@langleyadvance.com

The Langley District Parent Advisory Council (DPAC) is pleased that the local school district will re-examine its proposed policy that would limit public questions at board meetings. “That was a very scary motion,” Megan Dykeman, the DPAC president, told the Langley Advance after the meeting. The Langley School District was scheduled to vote on a motion at its June 14 meeting. The proposed policy would see question period become more restrictive.

Langley Township

No request for RCMP update Township council decided not to peer into an ongoing RCMP investigation of Mayor Rick Green. by Matthew Claxton mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

An early update on the RCMP investigation into Mayor Rick Green isn’t in the cards for the Langley Township council. A majority of the council turned down a motion by Councillor Charlie Fox Monday. He wanted to request the RCMP to provide an update. The Mounties have refused to say much publicly since January, when it was

learned that Green was under investigation over a complaint about a release of information that may have violated the Community Charter and Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act. Green confirmed in January that he’d been contacted by the RCMP, but maintains he’s done nothing wrong. He has blamed the investigation on politics. Only two councillors, including Fox, were in favour of asking the Mounties for an update. Green himself was not at the meeting, as he had a family emergency. The legal issues under investigation could result in a lawsuit, but not criminal charges. The investigation is by the provincial RCMP Commercial Crime Section, not local Mounties.

HST referendum

Labour dispute blocks HST votes HST ballots won’t be flying to and from voters while a postal lockout stalls the mail. by Matthew Claxton mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

Flying fur

Cooper the border collie bounded towards a tennis ball during a flyball demonstration Sunday afternoon, May 29 at the Philip Jackman Park baseball diamond in Aldergrove. The Flying Squad, a Surrey-based flyball team, participated in the Purina Walk for Dog Guides, with 100 per cent of the proceeds going to the Lions Foundation to train service dogs.

Just as Elections BC sent out ballots on the HST referendum, a Canada Post shutdown has stopped mail. As of 10 p.m. Tuesday, Canada Post locked out a large number of its employees in the Canadian Union of Postal Workers. Elections BC said that voting packages currently in the mail system will be held securely until service resumes. However, those wanting to return their

ballot may not see it delivered back to elections officials immediately. Those who haven’t received their ballot may have to wait for a while. “No changes to the referendum timetable are being contemplated at this time,” said a statement from Elections BC. For those who already have their ballot, they can complete it and drop it off in person at a collection centre at the Willowbrook Shopping Centre. The drop off point will be there every day during the referendum and is located across from the American Eagle outlet near The Bay, in the southeast section of the mall. The referendum, on whether to scrap the Harmonized Sales Tax, or to accept it, is scheduled to run from June 13 to July 22. Results are expected in August.

The other officers are also typing up reports from various files they’ve investigated earlier in the evening. An Abbotsford Police cruiser arrives as well – part of Project Bordertown, the cooperative effort by both forces to clamp down on thefts in the area. 10:43 p.m. Bloomquist is just finishing up his report, when the priority tone screams from three RCMP radios at once. The three cruisers tear out of the parking lot, and head just a few hundred yards down Fraser Highway, screeching to a halt in front of the shuttered facade of Aldergrove Elementary. It’s another gun call. 10:46 p.m. A bang rings out over the street. It will later turn out that this was just a firecracker – teenagers set off fireworks all over Aldergrove for several hours during the night. The incident didn’t actually involve a shot. As Bloomquist explains later,

For all your painting needs call

it seems that two men in Bob’s Bar and Grill started arguing. In the parking lot, one of them allegedly pulled out a gun, cocked it, and then pistol-whipped the other man in the face. The gun-wielding man then ran somewhere off to the north-east down Fraser Highway. Within minutes, officers including Bloomquist are running up and down Fraser carrying shotguns. One diminutive female officer is interviewing a group of belligerent possible witnesses, who seem to be as interested in yelling at each other as they are in talking to the RCMP. The suspect has already been identified as a 19-year-old local man, who lives near 271st street. His mother arrives. “He doesn’t have a gun!” she loudly tells an officer. Matthew Claxton will continue his ride-along narrative in upcoming editions of the Langley Advance, and online at www.langleyadvance.com.

In Part 1 of our series, Const. Braden Bloomquist started out onto the road at 7 p.m. and had already helped the SPCA seize two dogs, and talked to a mother about a runaway son. At 8:30 p.m., he and other officers were called to a report of shots fired on 32nd Avenue in Aldergrove. 9 p.m. Bloomquist explains that he arrived on the scene first, and thought he was dealing with a shooting. A window was smashed in one home, and the door was peppered with what looked like bullet marks. It’s the young officer’s first time as the first on the scene for something like this. His first thought was wondering where the gunman was, he said. Then he wondered if someone inside the house was injured. He secured the scene as more officers arrived. Over the next few minutes, he and other officers determine that, whatever happened, it doesn’t seem to have involved a gun. While the wall of the townhouse is riddled with dents, there are no real bullet holes, no shell casings to be found. The only injury is to a resident of the home who cut her feet

on broken glass. No one seems to have seen exactly what happened, either. Or at least, no one who is cooperating. A few neighbours say a woman was out front arguing with someone, when the window smashed and they heard the bangs. She says she was upstairs asleep and didn’t see anything. Neighbours say they aren’t surprised that it happened at that unit, which they claim is a drug house. By 9 p.m., the situation is calming down. Neighbours are standing in their driveways watching the police, while the owner of the home cleans up broken glass. 10:04 p.m. Bloomquist and several other officers are parked behind the Aldergrove Community Police Office, wrestling with one of the most frustrating parts of their job – the paperwork. After the missing child and shots fired incidents, Bloomquist now has to write up reports on both. B.C. is the only province in Canada to use the PRIME computer system for all police, including RCMP. It’s not taught at the RCMP Depot, so there’s an extra learning curve for officers assigned to this province. Bloomquist hammers out the details of what he saw and did, trying to

In the world of humanity we ﬁnd a great difference; the female sex is treated as though inferior, and is not allowed equal rights and privileges. This condition is due not to nature, but to education. In the Divine Creation there is no such distinction. Neither sex is superior to the other in the sight of God. Why then should one sex assert the inferiority of the other, withholding just rights and privileges as though God had given His authority for such a course of action? If women received the same educational advantages as those of men, the result would demonstrate the equality of capacity of both for scholarship. ~ www.bahai.org

Ave., Langley)

An open house scheduled for Wednesday, June 15, has been delayed until the end of the month. Metro Vancouver Parks will now gather residents of Langley and Abbotsford on June 28, 4 to 9 p.m., to talk about the future of Aldergrove Lake Park. The change was made when it became clear the meeting would fall on the last

night of the Stanley Cup hockey finals. The meeting would have been the first since the Metro Vancouver Parks Board announced it would not reopen the artificial swimming hole in the park. The aging concrete-lined bowl had problems ranging from environmental to health-related to structural. The park has been a host to generations of swimmers for 40 years. It has also hosted a large number of barbecues, stargazing nights, hikes, and horseback rides.

A multi-year proposed plan for which lanes will be designated as bike routes has been in the works for the past several months, with various cycling groups being consulted over the winter. A few changes have been made to the plan based on public input, said Richard Welfing, a Township project engineer. A long stretch of 200th Street, between 66th Avenue and 32nd Avenue, has been removed from the plan. Riders weren’t too enthusiastic about using the extremely busy stretch of road, even as a commuter route. Instead, several nearby streets, such as 203rd and 204th Streets, will funnel riders into and out of Langley City. In Aldergrove, 24th

Cyclists could see more bike lanes in Langley’s future. Avenue between 272nd and 264th Street was added to the plan. Sport cyclists had asked for Zero Avenue to be included, but that has not happened. “It was evaluated,” said Welfing. But it was found to be too busy, with no paved shoulders and high traffic speeds. Welfing noted that several sections of bike routes are being marked out this year, in partnership with TransLink. In particular, 200th Street will see shoulder widening, road markings, and bike lane signs installed all the way from 86th to 72nd Avenue,

completing a stretch of road that has intermittent bike lanes already. In addition, a triangle of streets in Murrayville will see marked lanes – 222nd Street, between 48th Avenue and Fraser Highway, and 48th Avenue from Fraser to 222nd Street. At the meeting that saw the plan approved, Councillor Jordan Bateman asked about whether there is a ridership target for Langley. Transportation manager Paul Cordeiro said there are no hard numbers for how many new riders an expanded bike network will attract. But he said that as soon as bike lanes are put in, the Township sees more riders. Continuous facilities attract the biggest increase in ridership. The next stage of the plan will be to determine what facilities go on what roads. There are numerous ways to build bike lanes, from simple painted lines to separated lanes. How much is built, and how soon, will depend on costs. The plan will also be changed over the years as Langley changes and grows.

Hope prevails It’s an old story, one that recurs despite society’s best efforts, and one that wrenches at the heart every time. It’s a story that every parent dreads, from the moment they started weighing the pros and cons of starting a family. That decision to bring children into the world always comes with a mass of questions based on the hopes and the dreams – and the fears – shared by everyone who takes that responsible journey into parenthood. Will my son be born with two left feet? Or will he grow up to be a hockey star? Will my daughter have difficulty making friends in school? Or will she go on to university and become a world-renowned scientist? Will my little boy fall in with the wrong crowd? Or will he grow up to be a productive member of society? Will my little girl disappear without a trace in the middle of the night? That last question probably doesn’t pop up often as newlyweds discuss the prospects of their future families. But it happens. And when it does happen to a family – a good family – a family in our own neighbourhood – there is no way for the rest of us to truly understand the depth of feeling that is being experienced by those directly affected. But it is a time when the community finds a depth of compassion within itself that is almost unmatchable by any other event. The entire community – a community of humanity that stretches far beyond the usual “community” boundaries – hopes that it all will turn out well, that there has just been an unfortunate mistake that can be corrected with a joyous homecoming. Such a joyous ending to the kind of story that is rending all of the hearts in Langley has happened before. And all those hearts are focused on such a joyous ending this week. – B.G.

HST referendum

Extinguish tax on principle People may recall that, prior to the last election, both Premier Gordon Campbell and Finance Minister Colin Hansen categorically denied that the HST would be introduced in B.C. They had apparently studied the question in depth and had determined that the possible benefits were far outweighed by the negative aspects. The HST has been uni-

laterally imposed through the deceptive actions of the Liberal government (they lied), and the deception seems to have continued, because just about every positive point made by the Liberals has been demonstrated to be false or extremely problematical. It has taken a massive effort, under difficult circumstances to bring B.C. to a public referendum. In every constituency in the

HST referendum

Tax waste biggest issue Dear Editor,

I, ever the cynic, can only respond to Ms de Boer [Facts favour HST over prior system, June 14 Letters, Langley Advance] by listing my history with taxes. I was born and went to work when there was only one tax: personal and business income. Then came the FST, a business-centered tax that allowed business to pass costs on to consumers. Next came the PST, a tax that was to provide monies, in part, for education and health care. Then came the GST, a tax to benefit all taxpayers by spreading the wealth. And now, HST is promoted to “reduce” costs and create a payback to consumers. I can hardly wait for another apologist to tell me how giving more of my hard-earned money to the government is a benefit. Perhaps tax waste should be addressed, with ways to curb it. I, for one, could do with less of my taxes going outside Canada to unappreciative countries while there is need in Canada. I would rather we put our house in order before we try to fix some other countries’ problems.

Terry Brenan, Aldergrove

HST referendum

Tax grows small businesses Dear Editor,

The HST helps grow B.C.’s small businesses. With help from the HST, I’ve been able to grow my business and hire an employee. The HST has lowered my costs and cut the nightmare of accounting in half. It keeps my small business competitive, and I can pass along savings to my customers. The HST also helps pay for health care services and education. I’m a 100 per cent believer in the HST as a fair way to tax. That is why I’m voting No to keep the HST.

Bob Edwards, Aldergrove

province, the minimum requirements were exceeded by at least 15 per cent. This effort should not be casually dismissed. Should the HST not be extinguished, then the message to the provincial government is, “Say whatever you need to say to get elected, then do whatever you want to do and wait them out. They will cave in to your demands.” Our political representatives must seek a higher standard of conduct. You may not agree with what they say, but you should be able to trust that they are telling you the truth, as they see it at that time. Considering the antics which have led us to this point, it is not possible to make an informed decision about the HST. Too much arm-twisting and back-room stuff has gone on. The solution is to extinguish the HST – clear the slate – and then, if the current government feels it is still a good idea, it can re-introduce the concept and B.C. can debate it. It is not $1.6 billion that has to be repaid. The federal government advanced about $530 million. We have a postal strike. Since our MLAs should be responsible for creating this mess, they should be instrumental in cleaning it up. They can contact Elections BC and find out how to get the ballots returned by the deadline, and then get back to you. I am new to the province. I am truly amazed at what passes for normal in B.C.

Councillors’ action unappreciated I wish to convey how offended I am by the recent actions of Councillors Charlie Fox and Jordan Bateman. I would encourage all fellow citizens of the Township of Langley to join me in strongly condemning their recent attempts at political grandstanding at the mayor’s expense. Even within the political arena of differing points of view, things should always stay professional and never get personal. I call upon all members of Township council to pass a motion to either censure or admonish both Councillor Fox and Councillor Bateman for their behaviour. Since council should be a reflection of its citizens, this surely does not remotely meet that standard, and brings about

embarrassment and shame to our community. We have all heard time and time again from Councillor Fox boasting about his many years as a role model to children as an educator, and Councillor Bateman’s nonstop profiling of himself as a role model as a Christian minister. These recent tactics and actions suggest that both have lost any credibility as any sort of role models in our community. Their style of politics is not needed nor welcomed in the Township, nor is their lack of any sense for human decency.

Border guard faces U.S. court A border guard has been extradited to the U.S. after allegedly working with drug smugglers. by Kim Bolan

Postmedia Network Inc.

A former B.C. border guard accused in 2009 of aiding a drug smuggling ring by allowing them to cross through the Aldergrove crossing with illicit cargo undetected has been extradited to the United States. Jasbir Singh Grewal made his first appearance Monday in a Seattle courtroom, where he pleaded not guilty to all charges, according to newly filed U.S. court documents. Grewal was ordered detained until his jury trial begins Aug. 15 before Chief U.S. District Court Judge Robert Lasnik. The case was reassigned to Lasnik earlier this month because he has presided over the court proceedings of several other B.C. men who pleaded guilty in the same smuggling conspiracy headed by former Abbotsford resident Rob Shannon and linked to the Hells Angels. Shannon is serving a 20-year-sentence handed to him in March 2009. Grewal is accused of allowing up to 3,000 kilograms of cocaine to be smuggled into B.C., worth as much as $75 million. The U.S. alleges he misused his position to allow vehicles packed with cocaine to cross at his Aldergrove post. The original indictment alleges Grewal was paid tens of thousands of dollars each for 12 shipments he allowed across the border through Aldergrove, a relative-

ly quiet crossing: “Jasbir Singh Grewal, an employee of the Canada Border Services Agency, abused his position of trust and influence with the Government of Canada by allowing the co-conspirators travelling by recreational vehicles to exit the United States through the Lynden/ Aldergrove port of entry.” The U.S. court documents maintain Grewal and other conspirators “coordinated the timing of the entry of illegal shipments of cocaine to Canada with the co-conspirators driving the recreational vehicles to coincide with his employment schedule.” The court documents detail one of the shipments linked to Grewal. “In July 2007, Jasbir Singh Grewal was on duty at the Aldergrove point of entry. He was wearing his department-issued uniform in service of the Canada Border Services Agency. Jasbir Singh Grewal was told by telephone that a recreational vehicle containing cocaine was soon to approach the international border crossing… “The driver of the recreational vehicle was told to approach the crossing at a specific booth that was staffed by Jasbir Singh Grewal. The driver complied with his instruction and Jasbir Singh Grewal knowingly passed the vehicle containing the cocaine… In exchange for the vehicle to pass, Jasbir Singh Grewal was paid $50,000.” In the Shannon-Grewal conspiracy, the U.S. government says more than $19 million worth of marijuana and cocaine was transported back and forth across the border over five years. Grewal has not faced any charges in Canada.

ne summer’s day 20 years ago, Tom Watson’s life was at a crossroads. And he chose to go on living. After first wife, Darlene, passed away from leukemia, Watson drowned in despair. “That was a very difficult time in my life and I had to surround myself with people who could help me through that,” he said. The thought of life without Darlene, who died in 1991, just days before her 28th birthday, left the suddenly single father contemplating suicide. “The boys would be better off and I would be with my Darlene. I lay in bed and, in my oppressive cocoon of darkness, I started planning how and when I would end my life,” Watson wrote in his autobiographical book Man Shoes. His plan: speed down the highway towards a river, purposely miss the bridge entrance, and crash down the embankment to certain death. Then, simple yet heartfelt words from his then fouryear-old son Brad evoked Watson’s moment of clarity. “We watched a movie together, All Dogs Go To Heaven, and at the end, Charlie, the dog, dies and goes to heaven,” Watson

recounted. “Bradley cried and said, ‘Daddy, please don’t die and go to heaven.’” Brad may not have know it at the time, but his words helped convince his dad that life was worth living. A survivor of child abuse, upheaval, and 13 foster homes, Watson learned to overcome adversity at an early age. Rescued at age five by the Watson family, he found family support that helped heal his physical and emotional wounds. Skip ahead to the present day and Watson is a founder of Your Better Life, an online company that empowers people to achieve greater success, and the owner and president of Recreation Excellence, a recreation services and facility management company. The married father of three sons – 24-year-old Brad, 21-year-old Kelly, and 17-year-old Jordan – is also, officially, a published author. Watson launched Man Shoes at a May 14 soirée in his honour at Eaglequest Golf & Country Club. A member of the Rotary Club of Langley Sunrise, Watson is donating a portion of book sales to Rotary International. It took Watson about two years to complete the book, a deeply personal account of his life’s journey, so far. “Quite the process, but it’s here and I’m very excited about that,” he said. “Man Shoes is about learning how to grow into and

It took about two years for author Tom Watson to complete his autobiographical book, Man Shoes, which is described as “the journey to becoming a better man, husband, and father.”

become the person that you are called to be.” Man Shoes is described as a book that helps readers understand what it takes to become a better man, husband, and father. “This book was actually a journal for my boys,” Watson explained. “I had no intention of writing a book.” He was inspired to write about his life after suffering a stroke seven years ago. “I wondered, if I died, what would my boys remember of me? Would they remember my history, would they remember my story... ?” Watson shared. “I keep a journal for each boy, and I read their journals and I thought, I should write my own journal about me.” Sharing his story with complete strangers wasn’t easy, but after talking it over with his wife Kathy, Watson decided to send a draft to publishing houses.

He signed a deal with Advantage Media Group and finished the book. The metaphor behind Man Shoes is it takes years to fit into your “shoes.” “Remember when our parents used to check our shoes and there was always a gap? The idea of Man Shoes is, at 18, I actually thought my feet fit perfectly into my shoes,” he said. Since he left the Watsons’ home, his “feet” grew. “My responsibilities have grown, but my feet have always been behind that,” Watson explained. “So there’s always been this gap, which I didn’t know [about]. That’s really what the book’s about: this idea of mentors – bringing mentors into your life to help you through these gaps.” The hardcover book is available at all online book retailers. A portion of book sales will be donated to Rotary International to help the needy at home and abroad. For more, visit: www.manshoes.net. • More online at www.langleyadvance.com, click on “Life”

Housing construction almost doubled since 2010 More homes, suites, and apartments are going up fast. by Matthew Claxton mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

The number of building permits for homes in Langley Township has almost doubled in the first five months of 2011 compared to last year. Gary MacKinnon, the economic development officer for the Township, tracks permits for single family homes, apartments and townhouses, and legal secondary suites. Between January and May this year, the Township handed out permits for 131 suites, 246 single family homes, and 138 multi-family homes. That’s a total of 515 units. That compares to the same period in 2010, in which 61 suites, 143 single family homes, and 74 condos and townhouses were

approved, for just 270 units. Statistics released recenlty from the Canadian Housing and Mortgage Corporation (CMHC) show a similar upward trend. CMHC tracks the actual start of housing construction, and they saw the Township’s construction increase from 289 to 377 units, while Langley City saw a housing construction jump from 69 to 122. The prices of existing homes up for resale, and the number of homes changing hands, was also up in May according to local realtors. The Fraser Valley Real Estate Board announced that 1,608 property sales were recorded in May, an increase of nine per cent compared to 1,477 sold during May of last year. Numbers were also up slightly from April. Prices were also higher. In May, the price of what the FVREB considers a “benchmark home” was

up to $529,810. The average price was much higher, at $630,870, a trend driven by the sale of high-end homes on larger rural lots, said FVREB president Sukh Sidhu. While some housing analysts have begun

to mention the word “bubble” when talking about the B.C. or wider Canadian housing markets, MacKinnon doesn’t think Langley is overbuilding. “I’m not worried about a bubble at this point,” MacKinnon said.

He noted that both the Township and outside agencies are projecting a doubling of population – to about 200,000 people – within the next 30 years. To accommodate all those new residents, a lot of new homes will have to

Two different hotels, with two different managers and a new staff that’s already being hired.

Carnival for hospice

Party Bazaar owner Wynne Gorman, a Langley resident herself, had such a good time with her temporary Halloween store in Langley last fall – The Flying Witch – that she’s decided to expand her business into this community permanently, or so I’m being told. To mark that expansion, there’s a grand opening of her new store this Saturday, and it has a charity twist. Gorman and her team are hosting a party with music carnival games, popcorn, candy floss, and other fun surprises – all to raise money for the Canuck Place children’s hospice. The Party Bazaar has been a destination party store in Vancouver for 35 years. It recently relocated to a new home on Station Street. And now, with the addition of a location in Langley – near the intersection of 200th Street and the Langley Bypass),

Gorman felt it was time for a party. The open house runs Saturday, June 18, 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. at both of the new locations.

Anyway, that phrase could be heard being shouted recently outside the Cascades Casino, as almost 100 people attended the Downtown Langley Business Association (yes, a name change from merchants association to business association). They were asked to look skyward for an aerial photograph. The photo was taken on May 26, just prior to the DLBA’s annual general meeting in the Summit Theatre show lounge at Cascades.

What’s in Store

other highlight of the night was the unveiling of a new website. Same address, different look. It has been designed to make it easier for residents to search for and find specific products, businesses, and services in the downtown core, said chair Craig Davies, of Design One Graphics, who was among those re-elected to the board. “Every business within the BIA is represented on this website with their own page, outlining their unique products and services. The range of stores in the downtown is truly remarkable,” Davies said. Mayor Peter Fassbender spoke to the crowd about the City of Langley’s vision for the future and its new Way Finding Strategy. “We are delighted to have a close working relationship with the DLBA and as we work toward the future plans for the City we intend to develop both a comprehensive, directional signage program to get people into the Downtown and we are also committed to see redevelopment enhance what is already a great downtown,” Fassbender said. During the evening, seven directors were instated by acclamation.

Sandman builds its second hotel

Last week I told you of one Walnut Grove hotel undergoing massive renovations. Today, I’m telling you of another hotel in the making – in the same Langley neighbourhood. Many of you have probably already noticed all the construction going on along the freeway at 200th Street. However, I want to draw your attention not to all the roadwork, but rather a large building being erected in the HarleyDavidson complex. Well, I’m told Sandman is nearing completion of a 196-room Sandman Signature hotel. Now from what I’ve been told, that’s their more upscale facilities, complete with pool and hot tub, their first ever rooftop garden, as well as loft and family suites (the latter complete with bunk beds). The corporation apparently only has a handful of these deluxe hotels, and they’re usually near airports – in Toronto, Vancouver, Prince George, Edmonton, and Revelstoke. The upscale operation in Langley is slated to open some time this summer – no specific date available. Rest assured, I’m told it won’t replace the existing Sandman Hotel located just across the freeway at 202nd Street and 88th Avenue.

COMMUNITY DAY Go celebrate you Langley community spirit at Douglas Park on Saturday.

see page A25… Music

The Left takes local success to U.S.

A band, formed in 2002, just released a new EP titled Cellophane as a precursor to its full album which will launch later this year. by Teija Beck news@langleyadvance.com

ith five guys working together in harmony, it’s no wonder Langley-based band The Left is enjoying such success. While some music groups become bogged down in dramatic ego clashes between artistic temperaments, band members Kevin Gau, Eric Davis, Carl Davis, Jeremiah Dyck, and Josh Wyper have managed to channel conflicting ideas into a cohesive product – something they can all be proud of. “We have scheduled meetings throughout the week and someone will bring in an idea, and we all let that idea inspire us,” said Eric Davis, the band’s drummer. “They’ll usually write a verse, a chorus and a bridge, and only one part will be good. That kind of inspires someone else to write a part.” Describing the creative process, Davis laughs that, while brainstorming sessions can be intense, the goal is not to let someone’s idea be squandered. “If someone feels really passionate about [an idea], we usually go with that, because the song usually succeeds if there’s a real passion for it,” he explained. “We try to go with people’s visions, because if you compromise too much, it’s no one’s idea.” The Left formed in 2002 when Gau (vocals and guitar), Dyck (bass), and Eric Davis and his brother Carl decided to play together. Eric said he and Gau, who attended the same high school – Pacific Academy in Surrey – had played together but wanted to be more of a rock band. When the band formed nine years ago, Carl was only 16 years old, but his contribution on guitar and vocals was just what the band needed. About two and a half years ago, the band decided to add Wyper as keyboardist. “We were going on a tour with Blind Melon,” Eric said. “It was a blast. [Wyper] fit in perfectly, so he just recently joined the band officially.” In their current five-member form, The Left recently recorded and released an EP (extended play, an short album) titled Cellophane. Eric describes The Left’s sound as “a cross between Death Cab For Cutie and Coldplay, except a little bit edgier.”

Photo submitted by The Left

To Eric’s delight, the band is meeting with success after the release of its new EP in Canada, and in the United States for the first time. “Cellophane is the single, and we released it on the American side about two weeks ago, and we’ve had six radio stations in the States add it to their rotation,” Eric said. “Six different stations in six different states.” A different song on the EP, called Love Don’t Worry, was picked up by local radio station 100.5 The Peak, and Eric said the song is currently sitting at No. 18 on that station’s chart.” The Left actually have quite a bit of history with 100.5 The Peak. A few years ago, they participated in the station’s Peak Performance Project which aims to launch the careers of up-and-coming local bands. It was the band’s success in the contest that allowed it to record the album it plans to launch later Photo submitted by The Left this year. The Left received the most votes of any band ever in the competition, according to Eric, and was awarded about $80,000 toward its music career. “Our original plan for the record was just to mix the singles at The Warehouse [Studio] in Vancouver with Randy Staub, and after we were awarded the money, we were able to have every song on the record mixed by him,” Eric said. Eric said The Left released its EP with four songs in the

spring to generate some excitement for the launch of a fulllength album later this year. He wouldn’t speculate as to the exact date of the release, but said the whole band was really looking forward to it. In the meantime, The Left is spending a week promoting their music at some of the radio stations playing its songs in the U.S. The band is also currently experimenting with its sound by switching up lead vocals for some songs. “Kevin and Josh are kind of now taking turns on lead with some songs,” Eric said. “We’re able to do different types of genres with Josh. He fancies himself as a young Bon Jovi-sounding singer, and Kevin is more of a Death Cab sound with a softer voice. Josh is more of a growl, so they just kind of pick and choose.” Eric said all five men consider the band their top priority, and while they do take on other work, both in music and in the trades, the band is their main focus. As new opportunities arise for The Left, writing music and lyrics will continue to be a team effort. “The grade for good ideas is pretty high, so it’s pretty intense,” Eric said. “If you bet your life on an idea, you don’t really share it. We’re pretty hard on each other, after having been together so long.” But after nine years playing together, members of The Left will continue to push each other to achieve. The songs on the Cellophane EP are available to download on iTunes. To learn more about the band or to listen to the title track Cellophane, visit the website at theleft.ca.

Tribute concert

Beatles live on ‘fourever’

Paul McCartney was so adored by Beatles fans. From sweet sounding ballads like Hey Jude to rockers like I Saw Her Standing There, Tennant lays it all out for everyone’s listening pleasure. Jean-Luc (George) has the keen ability to make his guitar sing sweetly on stage, much the same way the “Quiet Beatle” used to do. Add to that his voice and gentle playful demeanour and it truly transports people back to the ’60s. And last, but not least, Warwick pointed a spotlight on Paul Kaszonyi (Ringo), saying he’s the perfect compliment to the band, singing all the fun Ringo songs and all the whilst shaking his mop top. “What Beatles tribute band would be complete without the steady beat of the drums?” said Warwick. The Fab Fourever is expected to perform many of the memorable hits from 1962 to ’70, such as Can’t Buy Me Love, Love Me Do, She Loves You, Help, Yesterday, Yellow Submarine, All You Need Is Love, and Back In The USSR. “Fans won’t want to miss The Fab Fourever as they take you through when the Beatles first invaded America all the way to Abbey Road and Let It Be, Warwick said. The Fab Fourever tribute show is being held at Cascades on Thursday, June 23, at 8 p.m. Tickets are $25 at the casino guest services or at www. ticketweb.ca.

angley music lovers can pay tribute to the Beatles next week, in what is expected to be a sold-out show. The Fab Fourever, a tribute band, typically transports folks back in time to the 1960s – a time when the Beatles music was the soundtrack to a generation, said Rob Warwick, promoter of the local show being held at Cascades Casino’s Summit Theatre on Thursday. With vintage Beatle instruments and several full costume changes, the Fab Fourever spare no details to achieve that transformation, Warwick explained. “Foremost, The Fab Fourever are Beatle fans and that enjoyment of the music translates into a passion and an energy on stage, rarely seen by other Beatle tribute bands.” The show is full of raw energy, witty humour, and some of that “undeniable charisma” that took the Beatles from the Cavern Club in Liverpool and propelled them into the musical icons of past and present generations, Warwick elaborated. Take, for instance, Kevin Davey (John). He personifies the essence of John Lennon’s attitude, musicianship, and unique vocal talents. Combined with his Rickenbacker guitar and huge onstage presence, you’ve got the makings of one fourth of a great show, he said. Jody Tennant’s (Paul) great vocal range will remind the audience why

Theatre

Pair of encore performances scheduled for Lost in Yonkers Coming soon, local thespians will put their acting skills on display.

he Langley Players Drama Club is bringing the festival-winning Lost in Yonkers play to Brookswood for two encore performances. The play recently won top honours in the Fraser Valley Zone Festival and will now go against seven other plays from around the province at the Theatre BC Mainstage Festival to be held in Kamloops June 29 to July 6. “Our fantastic team is working very hard to prepare for Mainstage in Kamloops on July 4,” enthuses Director Mary Renvall, “and as

part of this preparation we are planning two additional performances.” Lost in Yonkers hits the stage Thursday, June 23 and Friday, June 24 at the Langley Playhouse, 4307 200th Street. Show time is 8 p.m. Tickets are $20 – slightly higher than normal Langley Players’ ticket prices to help cover the costs of taking the play to Mainstage. The reservation line is open at 604-534-7469, and patrons may reserve online at reservations@langleyplayers.com. Visit www.langleyplayers.com for more information. • More online at www.langleyadvance.com, click on “Entertainment”

Brookswood Secondary’s own Brandon Smith (left) plays Arthur Kurnitz in a scene along side Vancouver’s Nigel Vonas, playing Louie Kurnitz, in Langley Player’s adaptation of Lost in Yonkers. The play ran back in April and early May, and is back for two encore productions before showing at the provincial theatre competition in Kamloops next month.

Legion Week

Branch 21 members busy playing host A local branch has big plans. Royal Canadian Legions offer so much more than people realize and to show what Langley’s Branch 21 has, the members are inviting people in during Legion Week, June 18-26. The branch moved last year to a renovated building at 20570 56th Ave. For Legion Week, the members will be busy spotlighting the group that is more than just war vets who help at school Remembrance Day events. People are invited to stop for doughnuts and coffee each morning from 911 a.m. That’s when they can find out about the Legion’s support of sports programs for youth, education programs, and contributions to commun-

ity initiatives and events. Or take dad for breakfast June 19 (only $4) and stick around for a fun afternoon. There’s a ladies lunch (including bingo and trivia) on June 20 while June 21 is designated as a sports day. The day for the Ladies Auxiliary of the Legion is next Wednesday when there will be an afternoon social with door prizes and complimentary refreshments. Everyone’s invited for hot dogs starting at noon ($2.50 to eat) and thenbingo at 1 p.m. on June 23. The branch is hosting a candlelight vigil at the Fort Langley Cemetery on June 23. It gets underway at 7 p.m. The legion is hosting a VIP social

gathering June 24 and then throwing open the doors June 25. To close out Legion Week, Branch 21 has an open house that runs 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on June 25. Stop by and see the facility and findout what it has to offer. Legion members will have the barbecue fired up for hot dogs and hamburgers and there’s a ceremony at 2 p.m. to initiate new members. To be a member of a legion, people must be a citizen of Canada or a Commonwealth subject eligible to vote. People don’t have to have served in the military or police to be members.

CELEBRATE DIVERSITY

Langley City

Sense of community showing

Pancakes, a parade and fun in the park are all Saturday.

or the first time in the history of Community Day, the parade will have a grand marshall. Miss Canada Tara Teng will serve as marshall. (The day after, Teng is travelling to to Thailand and Cambodia to speak out against human trafficking.) The theme for this 17th annual event is celebrating diversity. “Community Day in the City of Langley is something very special,” said City Councillor Teri James, one of the organizers. “It not only celebrates diversity but confirms that sense of belonging that everyone likes to feel. It is our way of saying welcome, have fun and thank you for living, working and playing in this wonderful community.” The day starts with the Langley

Lions Club cooking up breakfast. People can get in on pancakes from 8-10 a.m. With stomachs satisfied, they can then enjoy the parade which travels down the one-way section of Fraser Highway. It’s slated to start at 10 a.m. After the parade, people are invited to head over to Douglas Park where there is an afternoon of activity planned. The Langley Seniors Resource Centre will be offering strawberry shortcake sales and bingo. The firefighters with Langley City will be very busy. The department puts on the firefighter challenge, where people can get a taste of the work involved in being a firefighter. There will be the kids challenge (in which they even get to put on child-sized fire gear) and a competition has been added for adult teams as well. continued on page A28…

Derek Cooke and all six City councillors competing as well as teams from the community such as the Langley Advance squad. The firefighters will also be doing their annual barbecue of hamburgers and hot dogs with proceeds going to the Langley Memorial Hospital Auxiliary.

Author celebrates release of second book at Murrayville coffee house by Roxanne Hooper rhooper@langleyadvance.com

uthor Mike Mason is a Murrayville resident who lives just up the hill from the centre of his fictional

Mason is the man who penned The Blue Umbrella two years ago, but prior to that, he spent 30 years writing faith-based non-fiction advice books about families, rela-

tionships, and children. Violet is a sequel, the second in a trilogy, “or possibly a longer series,” Mason said. Whereas the first book took place at Christmas, this one happens at Easter and has a different protagonist, named Ches. But otherwise, the setting is the same: a little town called Five

Musician Daniel Wesley prepares to release newest album next month

ord out this week is that Langley’s own Daniel Wesley is preparing to release his fifth studio album at the end of next month.

Recorded in both Toronto and Vancouver, Easy Livin’ is expected to hit the streets July 26. In the meantime, the first single, Head Outta Water, is already attracting a lot of attention on radio.

Some readers will remember Wesley, who first broke onto the music scene when his song Ooo Ohh became the most requested song of 2007 at 99.3 The Fox, and he and his group Goodbye

Beatdown made it into the finals in the 2009 Fox FM Vancouver SEEDS competition. Speaking of SEEDS, there are a few local groups in the running for this year’s con-

ow that temperatures are close to normal, people are hastening to buy annuals for summer containers – but some gardeners concentrate at least as much on containers of perennials and trees for more permanent plantings. A Burnaby gardener working with a very small, flat space has put dwarf trees in tall planters to add a vertical accent to the rear and centre of his three tiny garden beds. As dwarf trees, they will stay in pots for years with very little need to rootprune and top-prune. After his yard was dug up twice so workers could repair service pipes, he prepared for emergency plant removals. That’s why he pots up plants in containers then plunges them in garden beds where they look permanently rooted – but can be whisked up and away at a moment’s notice. When oriental poppies finish blooming, a Coquitlam gardener shears their dying leaves to the ground and puts a brick on either side, then pops a plant-filled container on the bricks so she has colour instead of bare

year – and the big bonus, she says, is that the huge, glossy bergenia leaves stay immaculate, instead of getting riddled by slug bites. Gardeners who have mystified guests by placing potato flowers in a vase sometimes go further. A Burnaby gardener has realized that red cabbages resemble huge roses. Her containers often feature them nestled among annuals that echo the blue and purple hues of the cabbage. Windowsills are another opportunity for innovative

plant homes. A Coquitlam couple fastened a gutter at the edge of their outside windowsill. There a thick line of sempervivums and sedums spread happily, perfectly drained under the roof overhang. Pots of plants on inside windowsills can be a falling hazard, and potted plants on outside sills doubly so. But a Chilliwack gardener has a long, thick plank fastened outside his family room window. Round pots of annuals fit securely into precise holes cut into the heavy wooden board. A Mission couple who wanted a beautiful but easymaintenance garden dug up their lawn and substituted landscape fabric under a drain rock mulch. On it they installed clusters of planted containers in harmonizing black and grey shades – a colour theme continued in pots and patio furniture throughout their yard.

Music

Local group heading south A whirlwind week of promotional appearances and concerts is in store for Tiller’s Folly. Langley-based acoustic group, Tiller’s Folly, is touring through Music City USA (aka Nashville, Tennessee) as well as several other important and influential southern American cities in late June in what is being termed an important “barnstorming week” packed with high profile media visits and public music showcase appearances. The power-packed media tour will find them playing the long celebrated live Nashville music showcase, The Billy Block Show on Tuesday evening, June 21 followed by a high profile half hour slot on the weekly live music show in Nashville, Music City Roots on Wednesday night, June 22.

They will then appear on Friday, June 24 on the noon news on WCYB Channel 5, Bristol, Tennessee’s NBC affiliate for a live performance and interview segment. Saturday, June 25 finds the band headlining for the first time on the legendary live music showcase program Blue Plate Special on Knoxville’s WDVX. This show can also be streamed live from www.wdvx.com/webcast.html They will close out the week with a full concert at The Rooster’s Wife, a celebrated music hall in Aberdeen, North Carolina on Sunday night, June 26. Tiller’s will then return to Nashville on Monday, June 27 to perform at a VIP private function of music industry leaders before flying back home the next day. This tour is designed to bring the band to the attention of notable music tastemakers and to introduce them to new audiences in the other markets.

The same gardener loves the tall evergreens in her backyards, but not their invasive roots which compete with delicate woodland plants nearby. Her vulnerable plants are now in containers under the trees – not battling their roots. The movability of containers is a huge asset. A North Vancouver gardener enjoys the powerful scent of sarcococca and moves containers of it close to doorways and sitting places when it’s in bloom – and away again when the blooms and fragrance are done. In Vancouver, a gardener whose deck has two very large containers, filled them with a combination of winter heather and bergenias for a flower-filled winter and spring. The contrasting foliage clothes the deck all

Some of Canada’s elite track and field athletes are coming to Langley in the next couple of years. The Royal Canadian Legion Branch 21 BC/Yukon Command has been awarded the 2013 and ’14 Legion National Youth Track and Field Championships. The meets, to be held at McLeod Athletic Park in August, will bring more than 800 athletes from across Canada to stay at Trinity Western University. The events will be held at MAP from Aug. 7-13 in 2013, and from Aug. 6-12 in ’14. On hand for Tuesday’s press conference were Royal Canadian Legion Comrade Lesley Maudsley, who will chair the two competitions, TWU president Jonathan S.

They’re not yet as big as their hockey bags, but two Langley eightyear-olds have shown talent big enough to invited to an international hockey tournament in Philadelphia. Pierce Lee and Brandon Santa Juana are best buds. They play on the Pacific Titans as part of spring hockey. It was their play in May in Edmonton that the boys were scouted and invited to the U.S. tourney. “We played at West Edmonton Mall at a tournament,” said Brandon. The boys (and their parents) head off for the July competition called the eighth annual OneHockey Elite Tournament. They are guaranteed five games. It will be a unique experience for the young players as they will be on a team only having skated with each other. The boys will have to work as a team with other youngsters who are strangers to them. So what did they think when they were invited? “I was excited,” said Pierce. The pals play centre, when they are not attending Grade 3 at James Hill Elementary for Brandon and R.C. Garnett Demonstration School for Pierce. If they can’t manage to play their hockey on ice, they’ll settle for just about anywhere, including playing ministicks in a hotel hallway, chuckled mom Jeanette Santa Juana. “Then we got in trouble,” Brandon added sheepishly. About the only thing that divides the two boys are their hockey heroes. For Pierce, it’s Pittsburgh

…continued from page A35 “It was really neat – really fun. I hadn’t done anything until then that was that nationally involved. It was really surprising, all the competition,” said Ellenwood, a 16-year-old Grade 10 student at Langley Secondary who was recently named the most outstanding female performer at the B.C. high school track and field championships. “I got to room with people I wouldn’t usually talk to or know. I got to know some really neat athletes. I couldn’t have done it without the Legion.” Ellenwood is gearing up for next month’s World Youth Championships in Athletics, to be held at Stadium Metropole in Lille, France, where she will compete in heptathlon (seven events including hurdles, high jump, shot put, 200m, long jump, javelin, and 800m). The Mustangs are also the home club for Braedon Dolfo, who won a bronze medal in high jump at the 2011 World Paralympic Track and Field Championships in New Zealand back in January. He is expected to compete for Canada at the Para Pan American Games in Guadalajara, Mexico this coming November.

Legion members, Township of Langley officials, and members of the Langley Mustangs track and field club were on hand for the announcement of the Legion National Youth Track and Field Championships coming to McLeod Athletic Park in 2013 and ’14. The events will be overseen by Maudsley, while the Mustangs will serve as the host club. “Our club has many outstanding athletes who have competed for Canada internationally,” Mustangs president Brent Dolfo said. “This meet will provide the stepping stone for our next generation of young athletes who are dreaming about following in their footsteps.” Maudsley said it is with “great pride” that the Royal Canadian Legion hosts this annual event for 14- to 17-year-olds. She added, “The Royal Canadian Legion also hosts an open category where more than 500 athletes who meet the qualifying standard enter independ-

ently to compete with the best in Canada. Youth today face many challenges, and track and field sports have a tremendous outlook on development and confidence for our young men and women, our future leaders of tomorrow.” TWU, which will host the athletes, resurrected its track and field program last fall after a seven-year hiatus, and has hired a new head coach, Laurier Primeau and acquired some high-level recruits, notably Scottish high jump champion Emma Nuttall. The 2011 championships will be held in Ottawa while the ’12 meet is in Charlottetown, PEI, prior to coming to Langley for two consecutive years.

Take away the second period, in which the Lakers scored five goals to the Jr. Thunder’s one, and it was a very close game. The Jr. Thunder led 2-1 after the first period, trailed 6-3 after 40 minutes, and had a 3-2 edge in goals in the final frame. Adam Will scored twice for the home team in a losing effort. Blake Mattinson scored three times for the Lakers. ••• The Thunder take on the Coquitlam Adanacs, the No. 1ranked team in the nation tonight, Thursday, June 16, at the LEC.

NLBA captures U15 club title

North Langley Basketball Association’s Lucas Hodgson went for a layup against the UVIC Jr. Vikes during the Basketball BC U15 Boys Club Championships ‘A’ Division final Sunday, June 12, at the Langley Events Centre.

Players representing North Langley Basketball Association were kings of the hardcourt at Basketball BC’s U15 Boys Club Championships last weekend. The inaugural tournament at the Langley Events Centre featured 12 teams, six in both the A and B divisions. In the A Division final, NLBA defeated the UVIC Jr. Vikes 55-42. Both teams were playing their fourth game in two days. The NLBA defence caused forced shots and missed lay-ups from the Vikes. The NLBA players utilized their height advantage to dominate the boards, and quick ball movement eroded the Vikes’ press. North Langley won two hard fought games on Saturday, June 11, and a very close game over Surrey Premier on Sunday to make it to the final against the Vikes. Strong play from Lucas Hodgson, Varun Kumar, and Jadon Cohee contributed to the win in the final.

Inlne hockey

Warriors, Zulu dominate A total of 45 teams rolled into the Langley Sportsplex May 27-29 to take part in the NARCh regional roller hockey tournament. Entries travelled from Alberta, Arizona, Prince George, Victoria and around the Lower Mainland to compete at the NARCh regional and qualify for the NARCh Finals to be held in Florida this July.

Mite Division (10 & under)

The Mite division saw seven teams competing for the A and B Pool titles. The North Shore Zulu (North Vancouver) proved to be the class of the tournament in winning the A championship with a perfect 6-0 record. Powered by a high-scoring offense and stingy defense, the Zulu scored a convincing 102 gold medal victory over the Westcoast (WC) Warriors 2000 (Langley). The B championship had an all-Langley matchup as the WC Warriors Grey knocked off the WC Warriors Frisk squad by an 8-2 count.

Squirt Division (12&under)

Eight teams squared off on the weekend in the always entertaining Squirt division. The Squirt A final saw another Zulu/ Warriors matchup as North Shore’s A team took on the Warriors Outcasts. This time around, it was the Warriors who proved too much to handle as they used a solid puck possession game to set up some quick strikes en route to a 6-0 championship.

The Squirt B Final was an all-Victoria affair as Eagleridge A blanked the Eagleridge B team 8-0.

Peewee (14 & under)

Peewee was the largest division at the tournament with 11 teams suiting up. The pre-tournament favourites, WC Warriors 96, lived up to their billing by claiming the A title in convincing fashion, 8-1 over the Warriors Outcasts. The gold medal victory capped off a perfect tournament for the Warriors, who cruised to a 6-0 record. The ’96 squad that featured WHL draft picks Jake Virtanen (No. 1 overall) and Ryan Donaldson. The peewee B championship came down to the Prince George Reapers scoring the game winner with 3:49 left to play and claiming the title with a 6-5 victory over North Shore Zulu B.

Bantam (16 & under)

The Bantam Division always tends to be the most competitive division each year. This year proved no different as the eight squads competing were very evenly matched. The A championship came down to the third Langley-versus-North Vancouver gold medal showdown of the day. The WC Warriors 94 claimed a tight, 4-2 victory over their rivals, the North Shore Zulu. This game saw the largest and loudest crowd of the day cheering the teams on during a tense and exciting game. The Bantam B championship saw the Delta Revolution take a three-goal halftime lead before hanging on for a 7-5 victory over the North Shore Zulu B team.

Rails and roads

Ken Zondervan of the City of Surrey (right) and Gary Vlieg of Langley City fielded questions about the 196th Street overpass plan Tuesday night.

City residents not sold on overpass Another round of tweaks to an overpass plan met with a critical response. by Matthew Claxton mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

Issues of trucks and noise dominated a Tuesday night open house on the latest changes to a controversial overpass plan on the border of Langley City and Surrey. The plans, part of an effort to create new rail overpasses from Delta to Langley, call for a fourlane divided overpass at 192nd Street, another at 196th Street, and a two-lane overpass at 54th/56th Avenues near 196th. Neighbours along the Surrey/ Langley border at 196th Street have raised numerous issues over

• 196th will be built to twolane collector standards and will remain a non-truck route. Parking spaces will be on the west side; • There will be no east-side sidewalk to reduce the possibility of vandalism, and leave more room for trees; • Street lights will minimize light spillage; • A swale on the east side of 196th will improve drainage for residents; • SuperPave asphalt, which reduces noise, will be used for 196th. Residents said they’re still worried that too many noisy trucks will use 196th to access the nearby industrial areas in the City and on the Surrey side of the border. Gary Vlieg, the City’s director of engineering, said trucks using the road without an immediate, local

the past few months about noise, dust from trains, and particularly trucks and traffic volumes. Residents wanted more assurances on a number of fronts. More than 60 people turned up for the meeting at Nicomekl Elementary, The project team added 10 changes to the design of the road along 196th, between 56th and 54th Avenues: • Berms at the south end of 196th to reduce noise; • A pedestrian connection to 53rd Avenue will connect to trails and a crosswalk; • A multi-use pathway will run on the west side of the road; • A three-metre high soundreducing wall will be built on the east side of 196th; • The builder will be responsible for monitoring vibration or settlement problems, if they occur;

reducing truck traffic to its absolute minimum on 196th Street. Several residents suggested signs directing trucks away from 196th, and towards existing truck routes like 56th Avenue, or onto Production Avenue in the industrial area. Vlieg noted that all the comments from the open house will be taken back to the team and to the local municipal councils, but the project has been approved and is going ahead.

destination will be subject to traffic tickets. “Will there be trucks? Yes,” Vlieg said. “In the volume that some people seem to think? In our considered opinion, no.” Vlieg said there will be about 200 to 400 trucks per day on the road, lower than the thousands that some other roads in the Langleys and Surrey see. Ken Zondervan, representing the City of Surrey, said the overpass team can look at methods of

Avoid Bankruptcy, Stops Creditor Calls. Much lower Payments at 0% Interest. We work for You, not Your Creditors.

Cancer June 21-July 22: A month of quietude and weariness ends Tuesday, as four weeks of high energy, charisma and effectiveness begin. Start important projects. Ask favours, call in markers. Until June 28 (next week) you might face opposition, or be attracted to a deeply alluring person. As usual, love is better than war. In the present week, especially Sunday to Tuesday, watch what you say to others: avoid secrets, gossip, etc. You are just beginning a splendid year-long popularity surge, especially at work. After Tuesday’s confusion/worry, grand inspiration flows Wednesday – follow hunches! Leo July 23-Aug. 22: Tuesday begins a month of retreat, quietude and rest. Your career luck will stay high, even rise. You can work in the background to advance your position: you’ll be especially good with government, institutional or head-office contacts. (Though these present some difficulties this Sunday and Tuesday.) Your hopes and optimism will rise also, and despite your need for solitude, you could receive an unusual amount of calls and invitations. So grab your rest when you can. This week isn’t easy, so remain realistic and diplomatic, particularly in legal, travel, sex and financial zones. Virgo Aug. 23-Sept. 22: Tackle your work Sunday/ Monday. Tuesday begins a month of celebration, flirtation, entertainment, optimism and popularity! You might meet someone very compatible in a group, someone who lifts you to humorous, good-natured heights. The year going tforward favours love – and far travel, learning, culture. Various problems and barriers confront you Sunday to Tuesday – don’t invest nor make any important commitment. This advice applies Thursday also. Inspiration returns Wednesday – and relationships turn from delusion to sweet knowing. Friday’s sexy, Saturday night’s loving, wise.

Tim Stephens' Astral Reflections Aries March 21 - April 19: The weeks ahead emphasize home, children, real estate, security, retirement, gardening, soul, nutrition and Mother Nature. It’s a splendid time for a camping vacation. (Better not to leave before June 28. You face many “home concerns” until then.) You will be ending some associations and projects now, perhaps to give new ones room to grow. Although this is usually a sluggish, restful period, you’re kept busy with a lot of communications, paperwork, errands – or wanderlust – now through July. Since your curiosity is up, investigate new income sources/ideas – they’re lucky! Taurus April 20-May 20: Be ambitious Sunday/ Monday – despite a subtle disagreement or heavyhanded legal or educational “pronouncement,” you’re on the path to success (for at least two years, financially, so be optimistic, make plans and go forth these months ahead!). Now to Aug. 2, you might spend too much, or be pushed to spend by government fees. Saving is your friend! Tuesday begins a month of paperwork, short trips, errands, casual acquaintances – you’ll be busy! Love is gentle, easy Monday to Wednesday, but you might doubt it: relax. Retreat, rest Thursday/Friday. Your energy surges Saturday p.m. Gemini May 21-June 20: This week isn’t easy for anyone. You could meet barriers or the need to compromise in finances or sex, especially Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday/Friday. On the plus side, your courage and determination grow now to early August, and so does your optimism. Group affairs grow; you’ll feel befriended. If someone criticized you to a group (secretly) these past few weeks, they prove ineffectual now. The month ahead emphasizes earnings, spending, possessions, sensuality and memory. Sunday’s gentle, mid-week’s ambitious (Wednesday best) and late week brings optimism and popularity!

June 19 - 25, 2011

Libra Sept. 23-Oct. 22: You feel romantic Sunday/ Monday, but events don’t help. Be cautious. Monday begins six weeks of partnership opportunities, possibly of legal hassles. Seek convergence, not dispute. If a partner begins talking about an international move, be wary. Recently, after a five-month respite, the sober side of your life returned to prominence – you can once again re-make your domestic, security, property and child-oriented situation – much more fortunately! (To next June.) Tuesday starts a month of ambition, and dealings with authorities. Reject relationships Thursday, embrace them Friday. Scorpio Oct. 23-Nov. 21: Mysteries fade; enlightenment comes Tuesday onward (for a month). Expect widened understanding, gentle love, international contacts, religious, educational and cultural involvements. Your life, for the next three years, will be filled with opportunities (especially financial ones) and, if you’re single, with cheerful, attractive love prospects. Every odd-numbered month, and the 10 days before it, will promote these (relationships and opportunities). E.g., July (seventh month) qualifies, with late June. Minor communication snafus this week. Romance calls Wednesday and Saturday. Sagittarius Nov. 22-Dec. 21: The (semi?) exciting events of the past few weeks yield now to a deeper, slower thrill, as intimacy, commitment, financial investment or clearing debts, grow more important for the month ahead. (It starts Tuesday morning – but make no commitments before June 28.) Secrets, research, intuition, dreams and hunches accompany this commitment trend. You might fall for someone new, or raise an ongoing romance to a more mature level, now through early August. If you’re the feisty type this phase can bring arguments and fights. Your choice! Domestic intuition strong Wednesday.

Capricorn Dec. 22-Jan. 19: Finish a project or chore Sunday/Monday. By late Monday onward (to August) a new task enters; and by Tuesday, a month of new horizons, fresh air and relationship excitement begins. This happens every early summer, but it’s more significant this year, as your romantic luck is beginning to climb strongly! If you’re married, the month ahead brings joys through children, vacation, sports and “winning.” (Singles get this, too.) Watch what you say – and legal parameters – midweek. Rest, rejuvenate, strengthen foundations Thursday/ Friday. Romance Saturday p.m. – join a group. Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 18: It hasn’t been a strong summer for you, Aquarius, but the months ahead (12 of them) bring a strong, beneficial rebuilding period, which might be marked by the purchase of a new home, better rental, the entry of a new baby, lifefreeing therapy, or other good foundational moves. One of the first requirements of this new foundation will be work, which confronts you Tuesday onward for a few weeks. Dive into this eagerly (but cautiously before June 28, as the path’s a bit rocky). You could be fooled about money Tuesday, and make a bad bet. But money inspiration’s great Wednesday. Pisces Feb. 19-March 20: Rest deeply Sunday/ Monday – Monday p.m. onward, your energy and charisma rise, and Tuesday morning begins a month of romance, creativity, pleasure and adventure! But Monday also starts six weeks of friction on the home front. Be gentle with parents and kids. Romantic urges outside the home might cause dissention within it. These same six weeks, you might have an opportunity to buy or sell real estate – OK, but strictly avoid moving into a new residence before Aug. 3. (It would “set up” long-term friction.) You might change sources of income. Joy Wednesday: thank God. timstephens@shaw.ca • Reading: 416-686-5014
