Village plans rolling along

By Jennifer Lang Massive pieces of machinery began thundering along 57 Avenue last week, as workers started the next phase of the Cloverdale West Village project.

The site of the former Cloverdale Plaza Mall, torn down two years ago, is being redeveloped for a multi-phase residential and retail project.

Over the next six months, trucks, construction people will be working in the area, creating new roads and sidewalks, and adding the necessary sewer and water infrastructure needed for development.

Cars dodged a line of barrel-shaped orange cones as traffic along 57 Avenue between the Cloverdale Bypass and 175 Street was ushered past backhoes and other equipment.

Onlookers watched as crews tore up the asphalt to make way for a new water main.

The work is being done by B&B Contracting, a Surrey company specializing in general and infrastructure contracting.

The project consultant is Core Group Consultants.

Last December, when remediation

work related to a former drycleaning operation, got underway. Fencing was put up around the site, bordered by the Bypass and 175 Street, between 57 and 58 Avenues.

The project’s first phase calls for a new home for Royal Canadian Legion Branch 6 in Cloverdale. The branch will get a 10,000 square-foot hall, plus 1,800 square feet of retail space to rent out as an ongoing source of revenue.

There will also be four floors of residential space in phase one.

The projected start of construction is early 2014. The master plan is to develop several mixed-used commercial and residential buildings, with condos and townhomes, built over several years.

The overall project developer for Cloverdale West Village is the Surrey City Development Corporation, along with Townline Housing Solutions, in collaboration with the Cloverdale Legion on phase one.

“Who the tenants will be, we won’t know for a long time,” said Jim Cox, SCDC president and CEO. There are no plans to close down any roads while site servicing takes place.

Erin and Jamie O’Neill cuddle with Greyson at the neonatal unit at B.C. Children’s Hospital.

By Monique Tamminga Erin O’Neill was around 25 weeks pregnant when she went into labour.

She was undergoing a routine gestational diabetes test when she started feeling lower back pain.

“I started getting what felt like contractions,” said O’Neill.

“I downloaded a contraction app on my phone and I quickly learned that my contractions were coming every three minutes.”

As the mother of two older kids, she remained fairly calm and drove herself to the hospital.

wouldn’t have to pay for parking. I thought it would be like my other two kids,” said Erin of her seven-year-old son and fiveyear-old daughter.

But for Erin and husband Jamie, this pregnancy and birth would be anything but routine.

Greyson was born on July 24, weighing just one pound, 14 ounces. He could have fit into his father’s hand, if he wasn’t covered in the tubes and ventilators that he needed to stay alive.

When he first arrived in the world, the baby didn’t breathe for a full 15 minutes.

Doctors prepared the couple for the worst, saying they didn’t think Greyson would live.

But miracles do happen — “Greyson is living proof,” said Jamie, a first-time dad.

Greyson was rushed to Children’s Hospital in Vancouver and into the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit where he has spent the last five weeks.

So have his parents.

Erin and Jamie have remained by their baby’s side, and their world has turned into a day-to-day emotional rollercoaster as they fall in love with their tiny bundle of joy.

Two weeks ago both mom and dad got to hold baby Greyson for the first time.

Thieves hit businesses Have your say on the new park

By Jennifer Lang Business owners and merchants in Cloverdale are being warned that thieves are again targeting the area.

The warning was issued after a spate of late night break and enters last week at three local businesses, according to a Heads Up business alert distributed to members of the Cloverdale Business Improvement Association.

An alarm consisting of glass sensors and motion detectors was triggered at Western Equipment at 114 5219 192 Street at about 8:11 p.m. Aug. 25. Police found a rear door had been ripped open.

The day before, thieves were interrupted breaking into BC Plant Health Care at 184 and 53 Avenue, and two males wearing hooded jackets were spotted fleeing on foot, headed east on 54 Avenue.

Four days later, Surrey RCMP responded to an alarm at Elisabeth’s Chalet Restaurant at 17785 56 Avenue. At 12:30 a.m. Aug. 28, thieves broke a front window to gain entry to the building. The police secured the perimeter and cleared the business. No one was found inside.

Busineses were also warned about the return of several persons of interest in the area.

The alerts are a joint notification program put out by the Cloverdale BIA and the Surrey RCMP’s Port Kells/Cloverdale district office.

Staff Sgt. Martin Blais has asked the business community to report all suspicious individuals and activities to police, using the non-emergency number.

The information helps Surrey RCMP allocate personnel.

The city invites residents to Hazelgrove Park open house

By Jennifer Lang Residents of the East Clayton area are invited to an open house on the Hazelgrove Park project, poised to be the neighbourhood’s largest once complete.

The City of Surrey is looking for ideas and feedback on amenities residents would like included in the park, and is hosting an open house Tuesday, Sept. 10 at Hazelgrove Elementary School.

Parks staff and the design team will be on hand with more details about the project, as well as receive feedback and answer questions about potential plans.

Information gathered will help guide the design. A second open house is planned for November as a follow-up on how the plans are shaping up.

A new park is one of the priorities in the East Clayton Neighbourhood Concept Plan.

The site is a 3.5 hectare area between 190 and 191 Street, north of Hazelgrove Elementary.

It will be developed as a community park with outdoor recreation and greenspace, plus amenities for team sports and play, according to the City of Surrey.

In addition, youth and community stakeholder workshops about the park’s design will be taking place this fall.

The final park design should be completed in spring 2014, with construction beginning next summer.

The open house runs from 6 to 8 p.m. in the gym at Hazelgrove Elementary, 7057 191 Street.

Maybe TransLink is trying to force people on this side of the bridge to drive their cars, in turn paying the gas tax and the bridge tolls.

She says until children are about eight years old, it’s difficult for them to assess whether a vehicle is moving or not, and assume cars stop instantly, among other alarming facts.

So drivers, please use extra caution, and watch for children, especially in and around school zones in the mornings and afternoons.

And parents, review the rules of the road with your children and go over their daily route to and from school.

reader would like to say Hats Off to motorists and passersby who rushed to the aid of a senior in a scooter who tipped over onto a busy roadway in downtown Cloverdale a few weeks ago.

Dennie Hartshorn says the light had just changed at the intersection of 177B and Highway 10, where shoppers were eager to enter Clover Square Village Mall, or continue on their morning’s rush.

Her heart pounded as she watched a man riding a motorized scooter fall to the ground, along with his machine.

2013 CTHS Yearling & Mixed Sale The Canadian Thoroughbred Horse Society of BC will hold its annual sale of yearling thoroughbreds on Tuesday Sept.

10 at Langley’s Thunderbird Show Park.

The auction will start at 2 p.m.

Interested buyers are welcome to visit the Show Park on Sept. 9 to view prospective racehorse champions at the Yearling Parade at 3 p.m. Many very successful B.C.-bred racehorses have been purchased from this Sale, including last year’s Horse of the Year, Taylor Said, who was purchased in 2009 for $10,000 and went on to win over $260,000.

Another B.C.-bred sales graduate, Herbie D, recently won the 2013

Longacres Mile at Emerald Downs near Seattle, the most prestigious race in the Pacific Northwest. This was the second year in a row that a B.C.-bred horse won the race.

Last year, B.C.-bred Strait of Dover won the Queen’s Plate at Toronto’s Woodbine Racetrack. This race is Canada’s equivalent to the Kentucky Derby.

Buyers at this year’s Sale will be entered into a draw, with six lucky buyers each winning up to $10,000 towards their purchase!

Also, everyone who comes out to the Sale or Parade can enter for a chance

to win a VIP trip for two to this year’s ultimate racing event, the Breeders Cup at Santa Anita Park in California.

A free information session for those who are considering purchasing a racehorse, either individually or with a group, and who would like to learn about ownership options, syndicates, what to expect and how to read the CTHS Sales catalogue and more will take place on Sept. 4 at The Derby Bar and Grill (115 – 17637 1st Avenue, Surrey) at 6 p.m. To reserve your spot or for more information call 604-536-2878.

For more information about the Sale, visit www.cthsbc.org

Hospital stay will be up to three months

“That was an amazing moment,” said Jamie.

The proud papa has been keeping the Facebook world up to date on their journey, calling the public site “Greyson’s Page.” It already has more than 600 likes.

Not knowing if Greyson would make it through each day, Jamie has been on leave from his job at Target.

Erin didn’t qualify for maternity leave employment insurance because she wasn’t working at her job long enough. That means there isn’t any money coming in while the couple stay by their baby’s side, day and night.

Because Jamie doesn’t drive and Erin was told she couldn’t for the first few weeks after the birth, the pair were taking the bus into Vancouver. It took them two hours each way.

And because the couple is from Langley, which is within Metro Vancouver borders, they don’t qualify to stay at the Ronald McDonald House or Easter Seal House.

But Variety Club got wind of their situation and bought them some time at Ronald McDonald House. Their stay has been extended to the end of September.

But it will be at least three months until Greyson is allowed to come home.

“We can take him home hopefully on Nov. 6, which was Erin’s original due date,” Jamie said. That means by next week the couple will be driving in, having to pay for tolls and gas along the way.

Erin has gone back to work once a week at White Sands Day Spa in Cloverdale to generate some income.

Two weeks ago, Greyson had major heart surgery to close a valve that hadn’t fully formed. He now weighs three pounds.

He has been on life support but is a fighter, said his dad.

“He has been fighting the breathing machine.

He’s like his mom, he likes to do it his way,” he said.

In the meantime, Erin’s other two children have been staying with their dad, full-time but are eager to be with their new brother. Everyone has been very supportive, they said.

New federal riding to include Langley City Two historic centres – Cloverdale and Langley City – come under one new riding as electoral map gets adjusted

By Jennifer Lang Cloverdale will be in a new federal riding that includes part of Langley.

The final decision on federal electoral boundaries for the next 10 years was announced Aug. 21 by the Electoral Boundaries Commission for B.C., adding six new seats for the province in the House of Commons.

The new Cloverdale-Langley City riding combines Langley City, part of Langley Township west of 200 Street, north from the city boundary to Highway 1, with Cloverdale, along with a portion of Surrey as far west as 144 Street.

The new riding has a population of 108,519.

The rest of Langley township will join the riding of Langley-Aldergrove.

Langley residents had wanted Langley to remain in a single riding, according to Langley MP Mark Warawa, who spoke to the Standing Committee on Procedure and House Affairs in March, but the commission decided the riding’s population was too high.

The new boundaries take effect in the next federal election in 2015.

Warawa said he intends to run in Langley-Aldergrove.

Every 10 years, the number of electoral

districts and their boundaries are revised to reflect population shifts and growth.

The commission held 23 public hearings across B.C. last fall on proposed changes.

Various neighbouring electoral districts have been reconfigured or created.

South Surrey-White Rock is forming its own riding, with a population of 94,678.

South Surrey-White Rock-Cloverdale MP Russ Hiebert had objected to the name given to the reconfigured Surrey Centre district, proposing ‘Surrey North’ as more appropriate.

But there was significant support for keeping it as Surrey Centre

how many of them would like to be a pioneer child.

“There’s always one kid that puts up their hand,” she says, suggesting if they really knew what it was like, no hands would be going up.

Radcliffe is a volunteer with Surrey Long Ago, a school program for primary students to Grade 3 that explores what life was like growing up in Surrey in the late 19th and early 20th century.

The kids visit a real, 1870s log cabin that was built by Surrey pioneer Eric Anderson, and also attend an historical classroom lesson.

“I think it’s an eyeopener for them,” says Ratcliff, a Cloverdale resident who has volunteered with the same school program for many years.

“I go through the litany of things they would have done as a pioneer child. First off, they’d have to walk to school – there was nobody driving them.”

They also had to walk to school – sometimes as far as a kilometer, she notes drily – and some of the children didn’t even have any shoes because shoes were expensive.

“You wouldn’t have wanted to be a pioneer child,” she insists firmly.

“Or a pioneer teacher.

For one, you couldn’t get married.”

She also talks about how corporal punishment was meted out to

pioneer-era students who misbehaved.

“We also talk about how the girls had to wear pinafores, and no, they didn’t shower and bathe every day.”

In Surrey’s early days, most students were less removed from rural life and were familiar with hardships and deprivations that are simply astounding to today’s students.

Still, the pioneer era had its charms. The log cabin, says Radcliffe, is always a big hit with students.

“The kids love the cabin.”

Surrey Long Ago is one of three school programs needing new volunteers for fall.

People of the Land explores West Coast First Nations traditions.

Students learn about resource gathering

and other topics, and try their hand at cedar weaving and sample a traditional feast of salmon and berries.

Ancient Buried Treasures is for Grades 6-7.

Students do a simulated archeological dig, and examine reproductions of ancient Egyptian and Greek objects.

Other long-time volunteers include people like Gary Goebel, a history buff and school program docent, and Roger Bose, who frequently leads public tours and walks.

The Surrey Museum’s school programs start on Oct. 2, and are offered on Tuesdays Wednesdays and Thursdays.

There’s a volunteer orientation session on Sept. 12 for those interested in finding out more.

The positions are ideal for retired people and parents with school-age children.

Voluteers don’t need any special qualities or expertise, says Radcliffe. “I think they just need to be able to enjoy children.”

She began volunteered at her children’s schools when they were growing up and when her youngest daughter graduated from high school, Radcliffe decided to look into volunteering with the Surrey Museum’s school programs after hearing about them through an acquaintance.

“It’s a great program to do.”

When they’re learning the ropes, volunteers receive a sheet containing all the mate-

rial they need to know.

It’s not hard learning the material, and new volunteers receive lots of help from the veterans. Newbies are allowed to shadow someone until they’re comfortable working with student groups alone.

“It’s not hard,” she says.

Volunteers don’t wear costumes, she points out. They rotate

through the various stations, delivering information. Radcliffe uses cards. Others ‘wing it,” she says.

The curriculumbased programs are set up for elementary students from Grades 1 to 7 and are used by classes from across Surrey, Delta, Langley, and New Westminster, along with private schools. Several of the most popular programs have been adapted for home schoolers.

In Surrey Long Ago, students are guided through a series of stations in parts of the Surrey Museum’s permanent gallery, then outside to the cabin.

“We each have a group and take them to different stations,” she explains, adding, “After a while, you get into a rhythm and it just becomes natural.”

They also look at artifacts that would have used at home and work.

Every group is differ-

ent, she says.

“There’s a lot of information that we give out.

We try to make it fun.

Passing along Surrey’s history to a new generation has also taught her to appreciate living in an era of modern labour-saving devices, technological advances, and enlightened attitudes.

“When I see what the pioneer women, how hard they worked, and how long they worked, even though I sometimes complain at home... to get the community going, it wasn’t easy. They didn’t have the roads. They didn’t have the cars. We just don’t appreciate what we have, really.”

Recalling a day when up to 10 neighbouring homes shared one telephone party line, she wonders, “How did I live in that environment?”

In many ways, it was a simpler time.

“I think we have it easier in many ways, but I’m glad when my kids were growing up, we didn’t have things like Facebook.”

Coaches for Team B.C. were Tim Blake (head coach), Jimmy Vulcano, Cliff Folick, Royston Grosjean, and John Hogg.

It’s been a perfect post season for the Spurs.

The Cloverdale Spurs Peewee AAA baseball team, fresh off their provincial title at the B.C. Championships in Prince George, just returned from Spruce Grove Alberta, where they took on the best teams in Western Canada, reports team manager Todd O’Dell.

The B.C. squad dominated, playing 5-0 to win the Western Canadian Championship, pushing their postseason record to a perfect 11-0.

It’s the second year in a row that a Peewee AAA team from Cloverdale has won the Western Canadian title.

Team B.C. won all their games by at least eight runs and four of the five games by a 10-run mercy including the semi-final and final. While Team B.C. had solid pitching and great defence, their hot bats were the big story.

B.C. led the tournament with a team batting average of .546 while pounding out nearly 18 hits a game. B.C’s Damiano Palmegiani led all hitters with a batting average of .722, earning him the top offensive player award.

Cloverdale’s Bantam AAA U15 and AAA 18U teams recently won silvers at the national baseball championships.

Maze opens for the season The 14th annual attraction pays tribute to historic Cloverdale

By Jennifer Lang The Bose Corn Maze and Veggie Patch has opened for the season. The popular, family-run Cloverdale corn maze, now in its 14th year of operations, is one of Surrey’s best-loved attractions.

The 2013 maze pays tribute to historic Cloverdale with a design patterned on the Cloverdale Business Improvement Association’s logo – a steam engine, reflecting the area’s proud legacy as a transportation crossroads.

The giant maze sprawls across acres of dense corn rows, and is divided into two halves. There are numbered posts at stops along the maze route. Each has a trivia question leading in a particular direction. A correct answer will lead to the next numbered post, and so on.

“Don’t worry, we haven’t lost anyone,” the website says.

Successive generations of the Bose family have been farming in Surrey since Henry Bose landed in B.C. in 1891.

Today, Novy and Mike Bose raise field crops as well as poultry. Their corn maze is a seasonal agritourism event that runs from late August to October.

The farm also sells vegetables: lettuce, cabbage, cauliflower, red, white, and russet potatoes, kale, carrots, green onions, cucumber, bell peppers and tomatoes.

Later on in the harvest, the

Support group ‘a lifeline’ A support group for people who are caring for family members with Alzheimer’s disease is actively recruiting new volunteers in the Cloverdale area.

The Alzheimer Society of B.C. runs a free, caregiver support group that meets once a month, giving people a place to talk about how their lives are affected by dementia.

“This is their lifeline,” says Rose Puska, the society’s support and education coordinator

for the Cloverdale area.

“They can meet with people with similar issues who are in a unique position to offer support to others on the same journey. The group is a place where they can talk openly, share information and give each other mutual support.”

An estimated one in 11 B.C. residents over the age of 65 are living with Alzheimer’s disease or other form of demen-

tia, a number that’s expected to double over the next generation, the society says.

An exceptionally sunny, dry summer helped push BC Parks to an all-time record number of reservations at provincial campgrounds.

More than 115,000 camping reservations were made through the province’s Discover Camping service, up 12 per cent from last year.

Campers were allowed to make reservations at more campsites and campgrounds, including Kleanza Creek, Martha Creek, Chilliwack Lake, Mable Lake and Bowron Lake, increasing the number of reservable sites to more than 5,000 at 95 parks.

While Labour Day is the traditional end to the regular camping season, BC Parks officials are trying to pump up shoulder season camping.

They say campsites are quieter in the fall, with attractions like spawning salmon in some areas.

It’s also the time of year when “long-stay camping” is permitted, allowing campers to stay four to six weeks at reduced rates in select parks.

Seniors over 65 also get camping discounts from Sept. 3 to June 14 next year.

A: Across different educational jurisdictions reducing class size has been a popular policy initiative over the last 15 years. Intuititively, both parents and teachers Jon Mayan believe that small class sizes will allow for more individual attention and result in higher achievement. However, what does the research say? The research confirms that class size reduction does provide the environment in which teachers are able to teach differently. In smaller classes, they interact with individual students more frequently and use a greater variety of instructional strategies. Students learn more academically and socially; they are more engaged and less disruptive. It is important to note, however, that other factors greatly enhance the benefits associated with smaller class sizes. The more important being the classroom teacher.

When the classroom teacher is given the opportunity and time to learn new instructional strategies, to design quality learning experiences and collaborate more frequently with colleagues, students truly benefit from being in smaller groupings. Often parents will ask me; How many students are expected in my child’s class next year? I share with them the importance of knowing how class size in combination with a professional growth-oriented teacher will benefit their child’s learning and development.

...speed up your mortgage paydown!

As the wet weather draws near, you may notice your pet feeling a bit stiffer and less nimble than usual. Commonly, this can be caused by varying degrees of arthritis or simply joint pain.

At The Bone and Biscuit Co. Cloverdale, we offer many natural solutions to toxic pain medication often prescribed.

One option is Elk Velvet Antler – also known as EVA. This supplement is sold in powder or capsule formulas and boasts benefits such as reducing swelling in the joints, improved circulation, aiding in joint, muscle and ligament repair and increasing kidney function. This is a human-grade supplement that also can be used to benefit us!

Another great supplement is Green Lipped Mussel – also known as GLM powder. This product has come to be recognized as one of the most effective natural anti-inflammatory supplements. It helps to provide pain relief for dogs experiencing clinical signs of arthritis. This is an extremely cost effective and 100% natural.

Other notable mentions go to a high quality Omega supplement and a Recovery complex for dogs. Natural joint lubrication and reduced inflammation as well as glucosamine and chondroitin are very important factors in maintaining joint health in pets of all ages.

Answer: We offer many programs, and we want you to see our facility. So, we believe it is important that - just like at school - you meet the instructors in person. So come in and check us Karen Bennett out! Ask about our free introductory class. We want you - or your child - to have every opportunity to find the individual program that suits you, and to feel comfortable. Talk to others training here, or whose children train with us. Martial Arts is a sport you may be involved in for years, perhaps a lifetime. We believe - and have found - that friendships are formed through a family oriented school.

The prepayment privileges that come with your mortgage are there for a reason - they help you pay off your mortgage faster and reduce your interest costs.

Prepayment privileges differ from lender to lender (up to 15%, 20% + 20%, double up, lump sum). Take the Feisal Panjwani, AMP 20 + 20 privilege; it allows an annual mortgage payment increase of up to 20% of the current payment. The second 20 allows a yearly lump sum payment of up to 20% of the original principal.

Example: $200,000 mortgage amortized for 25 years at 3.5%. *Put a $2,000 lump sum each year on your principal and you’ll pay off your mortgage in 20 years and save $21,726 in interest. *Or increase your monthly payment by $200 and you’ll pay off your mortgage in 19 years and save $23,937 in interest. If you can do both, all the better; you’ll save more and pay your mortgage off faster than you ever thought possible!

Where can you find pre-payment money? How about your tax refund or bonuses from work? If your income increases, consider increasing your mortgage payment. Pretend your income didn’t increase and maintain your usual lifestyle.

We are experts at providing the advice, education and resources that homebuyers need. Let us help you build a plan to take advantage of your lender’s prepayment privileges!

I have a super-sensitive bladder and have to go very frequently. Is there a natural product that might help? Does it work for my husband who has enlarged prostate?

A SagaPro® is a new herbal product labelled for bladder frequency. It is researched, tested, and developed in Iceland. It contains a herb called Angelica Archangelica. The leaves of this plant contain an active ingredient called isoquercitrin which decreases bladder wall irritability and lessens contractility thus increasing bladder capacity. SagaPro® works for both men and women with or without other bladder conditions. Benefits can be felt in as little as 10 days after use. No side effect has been noted during clinical trials.

Bans from entering U.S. under legal challenge Abbotsford church minister among victims of ‘draconian’ power of expedited removal by U.S. border guards nesses with key staffers who service equipment they’ve sold to American clients have been barred, causing chaos for the affected firms.

“If it was applied to the CEO of a B.C. company doing business in the United States, it would be disastrous for that company,” he said.

Boos said bans on B.C. residents through the provision have been sporadic so far, but there have been signs its use will grow.

Some “hard core” border guards use it more than others, he said, and one in Blaine boasted about denying more Canadians entry than any other staffer.

“This has a chilling effect on cross-border trade and commerce,” Boos said, adding it’s open to abuse and discrimination.

He’s confident the legal challenge should succeed because the U.S. enabling regulations indicate Canadian nonimmigrants aren’t to be subjected to expedited removal.

The only problem, he

said, is persuading the U.S. ninth circuit court of appeals that it has the jurisdiction to rule that border staff are overstepping their powers.

Oral arguments were held last week but a ruling isn’t expected for six to nine months.

Blaine lawyer Len Saunders said he’s seen perhaps one in 100 bans reversed by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CPB) staff at the post where it was imposed, but beyond that recourse is virtually impossible.

“The CPB officer is judge, jury and hangman,” Saunders said.

He’s seen a case where a B.C. resident with copies of his resume in his vehicle was barred after guards decided he was looking for work rather than vacationing.

“Usually it happens because they think the person is coming down to do something other than what they claim.”

Saunders recounts another case involving a retired Abbotsford church minister who was regularly cross-

ing the border to go to Lyndon to cover for the local minister for three weeks.

The first two times he merely said he was visiting the church when asked his reason for coming to the U.S. The third time he said he was covering for the colleague.

Although the minister was being paid only a small per diem and didn’t consider himself to be working in the U.S., CPB officers decided he’d lied to them the previous two trips and banned him for five years.

“If they can give an expedited removal to a minister from Abbotsford, they can give one to anyone,” Saunders said.

A higher profile victim was Chad Rook, a Vancouver actor.

He was slapped with a five-year ban after a nine-hour interrogation at the Peace Arch border crossing.

Rook was on his way to Los Angeles to meet entertainment industry contacts and to visit friends and vacation.

He initially neglected to

mention the business side of his trip and was accused of changing his story and trying to illegally work in the U.S.

“This draconian regime flies in the face of open borders and Canada’s long-standing friendship and trad-

Have you ever found yourself waiting in traffic, feeling impatient as you worry about keeping a particular time commitment, or simply wishing to keep moving? The summer months can be an especially busy and slow time on the road with construction crews building, expanding, and mending the byways and with vacationers filling up the lanes.

We mutter, “Why now of all days?” or “Get a move-on!” When I find myself stuck in such traffic, warning words from my mother echo in my head: “Better to be patient on the road than a patient in the hospital.” These words do help, somewhat.

On an especially late start one day last week, I was in such a predicament. Traffic was stalled and there was no alternate route to work. I just had to accept that this was how it was going to be. While I was silently fuming, a well-known Bible verse came to mind: “Be still and know that I am God” (Psalm 46:10). These words impart such truth, instilling feelings of calm, trust, and care – even in the most insignificant of life’s circumstances.

I realized that I had no control over the situation – no amount of fussing could fix it. I was required to trust and wait on others to solve the problem and simply prepare to be late with an altered schedule. Times will come when impatience Neighbourhood Bible Study will rear its head. Learning patience is an ongoing life-lesson, but I at Wired Monk 16811 60th Ave also trust that God sustains control over his creation. He loves his from 7 to 9 pm on Wednesdays people and looks out for their good, even through the most mundane of moments. When we sit back and “be still,” we can receive Children’s Bible School a sense of peace that transcends understanding in the knowledge (ages 6-12) at the church, that his will and purpose is above our own.

By Jeff Nagel A provision that lets American border guards arbitrarily bar Canadians from entering the U.S. for at least five years is under fire from B.C. business leaders who see it as a major threat to cross-border enterprise.

The B.C. Chamber of Commerce has joined a lawsuit filed in the U.S. that aims to quash the so-called “expedited removal” process.

Typically, B.C. residents barred from entry under the provision have been deemed by U.S. border staff to have lied under questioning about the reason for their visit.

“It seems like it’s pretty arbitrary in its application,” said Bellingham immigration lawyer Greg Boos, who has filed a submission in a U.S. court on behalf of the B.C. chamber, the Whatcom County chamber and other stakeholders.

Expedited removal consists of an automatic ban on entering the U.S. for either five years or for life and there’s no avenue for appeal to the courts.

Boos said B.C. busi-
