A Mother’s Wisdom for Solomon

Recreation open houses seek input Aldergrove Star

A helping hand for single mothers

By KURT LANGMANN Aldergrove Star

The YWCA Metro Vancouver is expanding its Single Mothers’ Support Services program to Aldergrove and four other new communities, thanks to a threeyear $450,000 commitment by three B.C. credit unions.

The YWCA’s Single Mothers’ Support Program works to ensure women parenting alone are able to achieve personal and economic independence. Funding commitments by Coast Capital Savings, Vancity and Envision Financial, a division of First West Credit Union, will allow new support

groups to be established in Surrey, Port Coquitlam, Aldergrove, Maple Ridge and Abbotsford.

Previously, single mothers had to travel into Vancouver to take advantage of the service.

The YWCA program expansion is the result of the vision of three female credit union CEOs

� Coast Capital’s Tracy Redies, Vancity’s Tamara Vrooman, and First West’s Launi Skinner � who decided to pool resources to ensure much-needed services are available to more single mothers in Metro Vancouver and the Fraser Valley.

SEE: Page 3

Plans to provide the community with a new recreation centre and pool in Aldergrove are being developed and the Township of Langley wants residents to have their say.

A proposed new community centre is planned for the former Aldergrove Elementary School site on Fraser Highway. Two open houses will be held this month by the Township to collect input on two facility concept plans.

The first open house will be held Saturday, Nov. 17, 10:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., at the Aldergrove Kinsmen Community Centre, 26770 - 29 Ave. This public input opportunity will be available before and after the Aldergrove Joint Town Hall meeting that will take place from 1 to 3 p.m. at the same location.

The second open house will take place Tuesday, Nov. 27, 7 to 9 p.m. at the Aldergrove Community Secondary School Library, 26850 - 29 Ave. “The new Aldergrove community recreation centre is a significant investment that will provide the Township with leisure opportunities for generations to come,” said Township Councillor Bob Long, Chair of Mayor Jack Froese’s Aldergrove Community Recreation Centre Standing Committee.

“It is important that decisions about this project are made with the public’s opinions in mind. I encourage everyone to take the time to provide input. We really want the community’s feedback.”

Residents can also have their say online.

From November 15 to 30, the public can learn more about the proposed plans and make their choice via www.placespeak.com\aldergrovecommunitycentre or simply link to it from the Township’s website www.tol.ca • Option One would see the facility located at the north end of the site, near Fraser Highway, and connected to the existing heritage schoolhouse. It would provide a modest leisure pool and a six-lane, 25-metre lap pool, both constructed indoors for year-round use, as well as fitness activity and multi-purpose rooms, a single sheet ice arena, and lobby space with food services. The Aldergrove Library would be relocated to the heritage schoolhouse. Option One SEE: Page 3

Family deals with aftermath of fire

By VIKKI HOPES Aldergrove Star

An Abbotsford couple whose home was damaged by fire on Sunday is not yet sure what their next step will be, a family friend said Tuesday. Marilyn Lechner said Bill and Annie Connor, who did not have insurance, are still trying to determine whether their home can be repaired.

Members of Abbotsford Fire Rescue Service (AFRS) escorted the family through their gutted home on Tuesday to see what personal items could be salvaged.

They were too overwhelmed to speak with media, an AFRS representative said on the scene.

The home at 29063 Downes Rd. – just east of Bradner Road – was heavily damaged after a chimney fire began in the basement at about 10 a.m. on Sunday and spread throughout the home. Although fire crews arrived quickly on the scene, the home suffered serious smoke, fire and water damage.

Lechner said, despite initial reports, this was not the home that Bill, 88, had lived in since the age of two. Rather, his family purchased the property when he was two, and he first lived in a different house on the site. He and Annie, 80, married when she was 16 and he was 24, and they were given six acres of the property on which they built a new home, Lechner said.

That residence was destroyed by an electrical fire, and the couple then built the home that was damaged in Sunday’s fire.

Lechner said the Connors were unable to get insurance because their chimney did not have the required insert, but they could not afford the $10,000 to $15,000 that it would cost to add it.

Bill worked for more than 20 years as a truck driver for Dairyland, but the couple are on a limited income, Lechner said.

The couple had been out for their daily morning visit to the A&W fast-food restaurant in

Aldergrove when they returned home to see fire crews on the scene.

Their only child, John, who lives with them, was safe.

AFRS emergency support services assisted the family with accessing alternative accommodation, but Lechner said that covered a hotel stay only through Wednesday. She said she and her husband, Barry, have booked three additional days for them at a hotel in Aldergrove. Then, the Connors will figure out what their next step will be.

Lechner said Bill has indicated that he does not want to sell his family’s property. “He wants to stay there until he passes away,” she said.

Meanwhile, Lechner is trying to set up a trust fund to help the Connors with whatever costs they will incur.

Members of the public wanting to know how to help are asked to call AFRS emergency adviser Susan Rai at 604-864-5694 or srai@ abbotsford.ca

Fight suspected cause of motor home fire

By VIKKI HOPES Aldergrove Star

An Abbotsford man was taken to hospital on Nov. 7 after an apparent fight with his brother resulted in his suffering serious burns.

Just after 7 p.m., Abbotsford Fire Rescue Service was called to the 27000-block of Myrtle Avenue – west of Lefeuvre Road – for a reported RV fire. When they

arrived, they found that the motor home on the back of the property was engulfed in flames. A 31-yearold man on the scene was suffering from serious burns and smoke inhalation, but was conscious and was taken to hospital for treatment of non life-threatening injuries.

“Upon arrival, after talking to the family members, it appears that there may be some sort of

an assault between two brothers where one may have started the fire,” said Abbotsford Police Sgt. Amar Kingra on the scene.

The other brother, 34, fled the scene in a vehicle before crews arrived, but police were able to track him down in Mission just before 9 p.m. He was turned over to the Abbotsford Police, and arson charges are being recommended.

VICTORIA – Before the 1,200-page, $25-million Cohen Commission report on the Fraser River sockeye salmon fishery slips beneath the waves, allow me to dip my toe into the river of data that has flowed by in the past three years.

If your information on this hugely complex subject consisted of skimming a few news stories or watching protesters on TV, you will likely conclude what urban people have been indoctrinated with for years.

The whole issue is salmon farms and whether they are bad or catastrophic.

“Freeze new salmon farms on sockeye migration route: Cohen” said the headline on a Black Press report. Those who read past the headline would learn that Justice Bruce Cohen recommended a freeze on further salmon farms around the Discovery Islands group near Campbell River until 2020. It’s up to the industry to show by that time that the risk is “minimal,” or farms there should be shut down.

A B.C. Salmon Farming Association spokesman said only nine of 70 B.C. salmon farms are in that area. There are no current applications for more.

Let’s say you decide to plunge in, and download the full report from www.cohencommission.ca. If you go to Volume 2, page 102, you will see a series of graphs that show sockeye runs from riv-

Salmon mystery far from solved

ers other than the Fraser, from Washington all the way up to Alaska.

It’s not a pretty sight. From Washington up to the Central Coast, the Skeena, Nass and up to Yukon’s Klukshu and Alaska’s Alsek, most runs show a decline starting in the 1980s or early 1990s.

This includes runs that migrate down the west side of Vancouver Island, away from salmon farms.

Alaska doesn’t allow farms, preferring “ranching” – a strategy that floods the ocean habitat with millions of hatchery fish. These are commercially fished and marketed as “wild.”

B.C.’s North Coast has never had salmon farms. The area has been subject to a moratorium since an NDPcontrolled legislative committee gave its verdict on the problem in 2008.

The popular villain in those days was sea lice. Skeena MLA Robin Austin chaired the committee that called for an end to open-pen salmon farms in five years. Then-agriculture minister Pat Bell approved one NDP recommendation, a moratorium on salmon farms in North Coast waters.

This was after the Pacific Salmon Forum conducted its own four-year study, led by former fisheries minister John Fraser.

Similar to Cohen, Fraser concluded that there is no simple answer to this complex problem.

And they agreed that

salmon farms don’t explain it. Cohen’s report makes it clear that the problem is far larger than could possibly be explained by salmon farms.

How about logging impact?

Cohen concludes after much testimony that stream protection has improved significantly during the time of observed sockeye decline.

Impact from extra runoff due to pine beetle infestation couldn’t be evaluated.

Poaching on the Fraser?

Cohen didn’t get around to that. His biggest concern was climate change, warming sensitive river waters and affecting ocean conditions.

During the Cohen commission hearings, the 2010 Fraser sockeye run came in gangbusters, with 35 million fish. One leading theory is that ash from an Alaska volcano fertilized the ocean, producing algae that supported more salmon feed.

Could it be that salmon ranching from Alaska, Japan and elsewhere is simply depleting the food supply?

That too is inconclusive.

Finally, Tides Canada, a U.S. front group that diverts attention from U.S. salmon and oil tankers, spent $25,000 to publicize Cohen evidence.

But only as it relates to B.C. salmon farms, and how bad they are.

A municipality that continues to grow will require larger libraries, and in some cases that may mean relocating existing branches and opening new ones.

But on Nov. 5, Langley Township council decided that before it settles on one option, it wants the cost of all three suggestions proposed by a consultant.

The options are: 1: Expand or renew libraries in existing neighbourhoods to meet the 10-year projected population growth, and possibly provide a new library in Willoughby within 10 years; 2: Develop a large (40,000 square foot) library in a Willoughby neighbourhood within 10 years; any expansion of existing libraries would likely occur beyond the 10-year time frame, and 3: Develop a smaller, central library in Willoughby, while making the expansion of existing libraries the highest priority in years six to 10 of the plan.

There was support among council members for this option, which includes the relocation of Aldergrove Library to a new community centre/ice rink/swimming pool on the site of the vacant Aldergrove Elementary School.

Option 3 also suggests relocating the Brookswood branch to a community facility, and expanding Fort Langley library.

A majority of council voted to get costs for all three options before deciding on one.

The plan, council was told, would cost $11.4 million over 15 years. This does not include increased costs associated with enlarging libraries.

A report included data on an analysis of library space and the population. Today, there are 106,276 people in Langley, and 25,350 square feet of library.

The analysis showed that the estimated population of 127,560 in 2021 would require more than 76,000 square feet of library space, almost 50,000 square feet more than exists at the present time.

A day for child health learning, development Aldergrove Star

On Wednesday, Nov. 21, from 1 to 7 p.m., the Langley Early Child Development Committee will host CHILD (Child Health Information Learning and Development) Day at the Coast Hotel and Convention Centre in downtown Langley, 20393 Fraser Highway.

The event is intended to provide parents and caregivers of children aged 0-6 years with an opportunity to talk to experts about their child and services available in the community. It brings together public health nurses, child mental health, child development, child care, and speech and language experts as well as representatives of immigrant services, and agencies who deliver parenting and family resource programs in Langley.

“In the past, CHILD Days have been smaller events held at local elementary schools during school hours,” said Karen Custodio, Chair of the Early Child Development Committee, and Early Years Manager for Aldergrove Neighbourhood Services.

“This has made it more difficult for working parents to attend.

We’re excited to be able to offer this event at different hours in conjunction with the Lower Mainland Annual Toy and Product Fair.”

“All the research says that a healthy start for a young child has the most impact on a person’s life. Right now parents have to work harder than ever to make ends meet and to find time to spend with their children. This event is focused on helping parents and caregivers give their children the best start,” said Jenilee Woods, Manager of Early Childhood Programs at Langley Community Services and member of the Early Child Development Committee.

“We’re very pleased to be able to offer child minding at the event so that parents can bring their children and know that they are cared for while they attend CHILD Day or the Product Fair.

Langley CHILD Day is one of the products of the Langley Early Child Development Committee, made up of early child development professionals from throughout the Langley’s including representation from non-profit societies, School District 35, Langley Township, City of Langley and Ministry of Children and Family Development. CHILD Day is made possible with the funding and assistance of Langley Township, City of Langley, Aldergrove Credit Union and the United Way of the Lower Mainland.

“I am inspired by the generosity of the three credit unions and the exceptional women who lead them – Tracy Redies, Tamara Vrooman and Launi Skinner,” says Janet Austin, CEO YWCA Metro Vancouver.

“They show us the true meaning of co-operation and they demonstrate that it is possible for competitors to collaborate to drive positive social change.

With their support, the YWCA can create the conditions for many single mothers to build better futures for themselves and their children.”

Approximately 15 per cent of families in Langley are run by single mothers, the majority of whom reside in the city centre.

Aldergrove has the next highest population of lone parents and is a more isolated community due to poor transit. Recent research says that Langley and Aldergrove are in need of more services that will support these single mothers. At present, there are a wide range of services for families but no programs specifically designed for single mothers in this area.

The YWCA’s Single Mothers’ Support Services expansion initiative will help address this need in Aldergrove. It will mean that more single mothers can easily access these crucial services locally and gain the confidence, knowledge and tools to seek employment, go back to school or find safe, affordable housing and child care among many other things. A support group is now available at Aldergrove Neighbourhood Services.

Sarah Neault is a single mom to a six-month-old baby, Solomon, and lives in Aldergrove. Until now, she has had to spend significant time in the car traveling into downtown Vancouver to take part in the existing Single Moms’ Support Groups. She calls them her lifeline, thanks to the skills, experience, training and networks she has gained through the service, despite some of the challenges she has experienced from being a single mom in a more isolated area.

In an interview with The Aldergrove Star, Sarah said, “Just after getting pregnant — it was a surprise — I ‘googled’ single moms programs and found the Y, so I emailed Janice and she said they didn’t have anything yet for new moms; the babies had to be 18 months old. She sent me some information on things to do to get ready.

“Then a couple months later she emailed me again and said they were going to start a moms and babies program, so I joined that a year ago in October, while I was three months pregnant.

“The biggest help has been the support of the other women.

It’s been amazing having women in the same position, who have been through it recently. We

public notice Be Wild Animal Aware Langley Township is full of wildlife habitat and people share the area with animals including bears, cougars, and coyotes. Residents throughout Langley need not be continually on alert, but action can be taken to deter wild animals if they are spotted in your area.

Parents should teach children what to do if they encounter these animals, especially if they play by themselves in areas that wildlife frequent or have been seen in the past.

To help people coexist with creatures that are simply trying to survive but can be dangerous if provoked, the following information is offered: Bears: during the winter months, bears are in hibernation and do not interact with humans for three or four months.

Cougars: can have kittens throughout the year and family groups can

be seen at any time. Cougars survive on natural food sources found in the wild, primarily deer.

Cougar attacks on humans are highly unlikely. However, if you encounter a cougar, do not run. Pick children up immediately and talk to the cougar in a confident voice. Act big by waving sticks and branches, and back away slowly while still facing the cougar. If it attacks, fight back.

Coyotes: have the largest population of potentially dangerous

wildlife in the area and can be seen year round, even in residential areas.

Family groups have been regularly seen around Langley.

Coyotes are bold and easily lose their natural fear of people. Never feed a coyote. If you encounter a coyote, scare it off by making loud noise or throwing something at it to make it afraid. Never ignore a coyote. If it

public notices continues to approach, do not run. Maintain eye contact, pick up small pets or children, and slowly move to an area of increased activity.

In Residential Areas: Keep pet food inside. Garbage is the biggest attraction for bears so keep it secure and inaccessible to wildlife. Do not leave garbage cans out overnight: keep them in the house, a locked garage, or secured outbuilding that cannot be broken into by large, smart bears. Put them out only on the morning of collection. If you are worried about odour, keep garbage in the freezer until collection day. Feel free to use bird feeders in the winter months. Birds need nutrition from seeds during this time of year, and the bird food will not attract bears, as they are away hibernating.

In Agricultural Areas: Protect your investment by keeping fences secure and free of damage that predators can use for access. Coyotes burrow, so ensure surrounding netting goes deep into the ground. Be vigilant with livestock and keep them secure. Farm animals are usually killed at night, so bring them inside in the evening.

Langley Community Chorus will present a Christmas concert series titled “Merry Fa La La!” in three Aldergrove and Langley venues in coming weeks.

The Aldergrove venue will be St. Dunstan’s Anglican Church, in a Sunday afternoon matinee on December 9.

The chorus is celebrating their 20th anniversary with a fun-filled concert of varied and wonderful Christmas music, with everything from A to Z, from “Ave Maria” to “’Zat You Santa Clause?”

The Langley Community Chorus, a registered non-profit society, was founded in 1992 with 14 singers and has grown over the years to more tab 80 voices today. They are a mixed voice (SATB) choral group of various ages from Langley and neighbouring municipalities, all with a love of singing.

The chorus performs two main public concerts each year, in winter and spring, as well as shares their music at Langley seniors’ residences. They are beginning to expand their venues and guest performances with the goal of providing more opportunities to perform for the public

Society offers free music lessons, instruments to youth Aldergrove Star

The Music Access Society, a Langley-based non-profit society, is looking for participants and sponsors for its free music programs. They also invite guests to come out to the Christmas Party fundraising event going on prior to the Aldergrove Christmas Parade, at Bob’s Steakhouse on Saturday, Dec. 8.

Music Access Society (MAS) is a newly-formed not-for profit initiative formed by local residents which recognizes that limitations in arts education combined with B.C.’s high cost of living leaves restricted-income fam-

ilies without the ability to afford music lessons for their children.

MAS has recently created a sponsorship program for children and youth in Abbotsford, Aldergrove, Langley, and South Surrey/White Rock. Participants are offered free music lessons and access to musical instruments to take home for the duration of the lessons.

Keyboarding is offered Mondays at the City of Langley’s Al Anderson Pool, close to the Douglas Park area. Group guitar runs Thursdays at St. Dunstan’s Anglican Church in Aldergrove.

Private lessons for seven low-

income or otherwise challenged children and youth is offered in music schools closest to the student’s home. Musical instruments are supplied by local donors.

There are still seats available for interested children and youth. Twenty-four children and youth have, thus far, begun on their musical journeys.

The Music Access Society was founded by John Briner, BAMus, LLB, LLM, a local father of four, a practicing lawyer and former private guitar instructor, and Anne Guite, BA, a local musician, along with a small group of

music educators and supporters.

The Dec. 8 fundraiser will feature Christmas, pop and folk music from Soft Focus, fiddlers and friends, as well as games and prizes. It runs from 2 to 4 p.m. at Bob’s Steakhouse, and tickets include choice of any beverage and three meal options, with desserts for the kids. Prices are $20 adult, $10 child and babies under age three are free. For tickets call 604-259-8452.

Aldergrove is a transportation hub and trucking is critical for the success of Gloucester Industrial Estates as well as smaller companies which depend on prompt deliveries. Aldergrove-based companies such as Challenger and MHL Transport are meeting these long and short haul trucking needs.

Trucking industry has great future Aldergrove Star

Job seekers are in luck when it comes to the commercial road transportation industry in British Columbia.

Trucking companies throughout B.C. require professional drivers, mechanics, dispatchers and operations staff right now, which means that job seekers with experience and/ or training may find work within their preferred region.

For those considering training prior to joining the workforce, demand for skilled workers in the industry is likely to grow – to 2020 and beyond.

There are a number of reasons for this.

For truck drivers, the industry is facing a North America-wide shortage because most are 45 years of age or older and nearing retirement (in

fact, in Canada, according to a report by the Canada Trucking Human Resources Council, 58 percent of long-haul truck drivers fall in this age range).

Similar shortages exist for other jobs, including diesel engine and heavy duty mechanics.

Aside from worker shortages, economic growth in the Asia-Pacific Gateway is also driving demand for workers in transportation.

This applies not only to companies in the Lower Mainland, but in other regions as well, since the AsiaPacific “Gateway” is actually made up of an integrated supply chain of airports, seaports, rail and road connections, and border crossings, from Prince Rupert to Surrey, with links supplied by trucking.

Today’s trucking industry is an exciting place to be.

7x7

Equipment in many companies is state of the art, meaning increased comfort and ease for drivers and opportunities for mechanics to work with technologically advanced systems, keeping both their skills and interest engaged.

Dispatch relies on sophisticated tracking and routing systems.

Others on the operations side also use information technology of many kinds to deal with everything from licences and permits, to customer services, accounting, sales and marketing.

And, people joining the industry have many career choices.

Drivers, for example, may work close to home as pick-up and delivery or short-haul drivers.

Those who like the idea of travelling across Canada or North America can become long-haul drivers for an

employer or work as owner-operators. Drivers may haul consumer goods, fuel, logs, heavy-duty equipment, livestock – most of what we purchase or consume spent some time on the road with a commercial truck!

If you already have experience as a driver, mechanic or operations worker, most companies advertise jobs on their websites.

Members of the B.C. Trucking Association from across the province may post jobs under Careers on www.bctrucking.com, and the provincial and federal governments maintain job sites at WorkBC (http://www.workbc.ca/Jobs/) and Working in Canada (http://www. workingincanada.gc.ca/ - choose to Explore Careers by Occupation, then

by Region).

Within your own community, it

may also pay to approach a company you’d like to work for, drop off a résumé and inquire if and when they’ll be hiring.

If you’d like to enter the industry but need training, there are also many avenues to explore.

Although there is not a standard training course for professional drivers, there are numerous private schools throughout B.C. that offer programs.

For information on transportation trades in B.C., including mechanics and other technicians, visit transCDA (http://www.tcda.ca/home).

And for information on trucking careers in general, see www.truckingcareers.ca Your own community and region depend on trucking.

It may also offer the right career for you.

The names of the 158 Canadian soldiers killed in duty in Afghanistan are inscribed on this metal ribbon which wraps around a memorial pillar in the Derek Doubleday Arberetum in Murrayville. This commemorative structure was unveiled in a “Walk to Remember” dedication ceremony, Nov. 11, and the final 158th tree planting in the memory of the 158 soldiers was performed by the guests. The memorial was initiated by Langley students and siblings Michael and Elizabeth Pratt, who wished to plant a tree for every soldier lost in Afghanistan but with the support of the Township and federal governments grew to include the commemorative structure.

MP Mark Warawa also presented the arboretum with a Canadian flag, a gift from Parliament Hill.

Kodiaks keep on hot winning streak

By KURT LANGMANN Aldergrove Star

The Aldergrove Kodiaks extended their winning streak with a 3-2 overtime victory over the Abbotsford Pilots Friday night at MSA Arena.

The Pilots came out strong and it was all the Kodiaks could do to keep the puck out of their end in the first period. The Pilots opened the scoring at 2:05 and were up 1-0 at the start of the second period.

The Kodiaks evened it up in the second, with Samuel Ramsay netting one unassisted at 13:44.

The Pilots took another lead at 3:20 in the third but the Kodiaks responded at 11:25, with a goal

by Tyler Solotki, assisted by Scott McHaffie and Ryan Veillet.

This put it into overtime and it was at 3:28 in the second OT that Kodiak Stefan Gonzales scored the winner.

The Pilots outshot the Kodiaks 40-22 and Kodiaks keeper Mark Menicucci amply deserved the game’s first star for his work. Gonzales was second star of the night.

Neither of the teams scored on each of their two power plays.

The win improves the Kodiaks record to 19 points after 18 games (9-8-1-0), five points behind the Harold Brittain conference leading Pilots.

The Kodiaks travel to play the Delta Ice Hawks on Tuesday, Nov. 13 and host Grandview Steelers on Nov. 14 and the Mission City Outlaws on Nov. 21.

The Port Moody Black Panthers put up a great battle, with outstanding work by their net-minder Angus Redmond against an all-out puck assault by the Aldergrove Kodiaks Wednesday, Nov. 7 at Aldergrove Arena.

The Panthers took it into overtime, tied at three apiece, before Kodiak Roshen Jaswal netted the winner at 43 seconds into OT. The Kodiaks led in shots on goal all three periods, for a grand total of 59, versus 38 from the Panthers. The Panthers also opened the scoring in the first period at 5:23 and were up 1-0 at the start of the second.

The Kodiaks opened the scoring in the second, with one from Stephen Ryan at 3:00 on a power play, assisted by Adam Callegari and Joshua Cronin. It was a seesaw battle, however, with the Panthers responding on their power play at 6:38. This was followed with the Kodiaks’ Scott McHaffie scoring at 16:05, assisted

by Stefan Gonzales and Spencer McHaffie. This evened it up only briefly as the Panthers closed the second with another power play goal at 17:43, to go up 3-2 at the start of the
