Langley students walk out in protest FRUSTRATION OVER LABOUR DISPUTE SPILLS OUT OF THE CLASSROOM MONIQUE TA MMING A Time s Re po rte r

DAN FER GUSON L an gley Tim es

About 30 students walked out of Betty Gilbert Middle School Wednesday morning to protest the ongoing contract dispute between teachers and the provincial government. They were greeted outside by a school staffer who took down their names to record who was absent. Protest organizer Hailey Merritt can be seen holding a yellow sign

Students from a number of Langley schools walked out in a peaceful protest over the ongoing teachers’ labour dispute on Wednesday morning.

The students are part of a B.C.-wide walkout that had 13,000 students on a Facebook page say they were going to leave class to demonstrate their frustration.

While the labour dispute impacts students the most, both the provincial government and the B.C. Teachers Federation have not acknowledged that point yet.

A few dozen students at Betty Gilbert Middle School walked out at 9 a.m. Numerous students at D.W. Poppy Secondary also walked out, sitting and standing outside the front of the school for most of the day.

D.W. Poppy Grade 11 student Katherine is among

the organizers of the protest at her school.

“As younger citizens, we have a hard time getting heard among our elders, but this time we plan to get our message out there loud and clear,” she said.

Some students also walked out at Brookswood Secondary.

The message at all schools is the same — both parties should stop using students as their pawns in the ongoing labour dispute. Students said they aren’t taking sides — they just want to be able to have an education that isn’t interrupted or halted because of labour strife.

The government has been taking 10 per cent of teachers’ wages per day during job action, and teachers could ramp up striking.

Thus far, Langley students have missed two days off classes — on Monday of this week, and on Tuesday, May 27.

LMH delivers new maternity ward M O N I Q U E TA M M I N G A Tim e s Re po r t e r

This month, Langley Memorial Hospital has a birth announcement of its own to make.

After huge fundraising efforts, generous donations from the community and building a third floor onto the hospital, LMH is ready to announce it has a new maternity unit and clinic.

The $11.66 million project ensures that all maternity care is on one floor, (the third floor). There will be a dedicated operating room for C-sections.

The expansion and relocation will allow for seven new single maternity care rooms, so new mothers can stay in one room for a continuum of care.

The expanded nursery is already

complete and being used. There is also a new isolation room.

The new space will also be ideal for teaching for UBC medical students and Family Practice residents.

To facilitate everything on one floor, the hospital had to build a third storey onto the hospital, which is no easy feat.

“When Dr. Chapman and I

launched the maternity clinic back in 2004, we knew we were meeting a huge need for the community.

One of our biggest challenges has been our location in the hospital,” said Dr. Beth Watt, one of the founding physicians of LMH’s maternity clinic.

“We started the clinic in one area and have been moved three times.”

Short cell towers raise questions THREE CELL TOWERS UNDER 15-METRE LIMIT D AN FERGU SO N Ti m e s Re po r t e r

Telus is not trimming the height of new cell towers to avoid having to notify the public about their construction, a spokesperson for the company said last Thursday, May 29.

Liz Sauvé was responding to a Times query made after the issue was raised at a Township council meeting.

A resident had emailed council to complain a new Telus cell tower was being built at 2535 240 St. without notification.

The tower was 300 metres from the Wix Brown Elementary school, the resident said.

When Councillor Charlie Fox raised the matter during the May 5 afternoon meeting, he speculated the tower was “under the threshold” of 15 metres where a company must notify nearby residents.

Community development and engineering general manager Ramin Seifi told council when Township staff contact-

ed Telus, they were told the tower in question was just under the limit.

“We expressed some concern with the lack of consultation and apparent lack of process being followed and we were advised … that they, in

We build sites to the height that’s required.

LIZ SAUVE

fact, had made sure that the height of the tower is just below the Industry Canada requirement for public consultation of 15 metres,” Seifi told council.

“In fact, it’s 14.9 metres,” Seifi added.

He went on say that at least two other Telus cell towers were being built at the same height, just below 15 metres.

In her response to The Times, the Telus spokesperson said decisions about the height of an antennae are based on technical concerns.

“We build sites to the height that’s required,” Sauvé said.

Sauvé said the company has seven wireless sites in the Township under various stages of development ranging in size from one that is 40 metres tall to one that “is simply an antenna on the side of an existing structure.”

Sauvé added the Township has expressed a preference for shorter towers, and Telus is “respecting that by building smaller sites wherever possible, as we’re doing in this case.”

Earlier this year, federal Industry Minister James Moore announced that Canadian telecommunications companies would, in the future, be required to consult with communities when it comes to building new cellphone towers of any size.

The move by the federal government was a response to complaints that the height limit was being exploited as a loophole by cellphone companies that have

built towers across Canada just under 15 metres, apparently to bypass the requirement for public consultation.

The change does not apply to any towers approved before the new rules took effect.

Last year, after several controversies over cell tower placement, Langley Township council approved a new municipal bylaw that requires an 80 per cent yes vote from people living near any proposed new cell phone antenna.

Under the new rules, cell phone companies will have to pay the cost of polling residents within a 500 metre radius of the proposed towers.

At the time, Telus government affairs manager Chad Marlatt told council while the Township doesn’t actually have legal authority to prevent construction of cell towers, Industry Canada, the federal authority that does have the power, would likely defer to the municipality.

Marlatt also told council Telus knows most people don’t want a cell tower near their homes.

D A N FE R GUS ON Langley Time s

This recently-built cell phone antenna on 240 Street is just below the height where public notification would have been required.

Neighbourhood under siege from mail thieves MO N I Q U E TA M M I N G A Ti m e s Re po r t e r

A normally quiet street in Walnut Grove has been under siege by identity thieves, who have broken into the community mailbox more than six times in the past months, not just stealing mail but completely taking over the identities of residents there, and racking up fake credit card bills to the tune of $100,000.

“It’s been absolutely crazy,” said Trudy Larouche who lives on the street. From the mailbox theft, her husband’s identity

was stolen, credit cards made in his name and used, their email accounts hacked and more.

“We even had to change our phone number.”

The community box at 93A Avenue and 204 Street has been broken into at least six times in the past five months. At least six people who live on the dead end street have had their identity compromised.

“This is sophisticated. They even created phony driver’s licences,” she said.

The community box currently has a no-

FLIPS FLIPS THAT THAT DON’T DON’T FLOP. FLOP.

tice on it from Canada Post indicating to residents that the box has been broken into, and that residents are to pick up their mail at the Cloverdale post office.

“That, of course, is a ridiculous request for those of us who work. How would we do that?”

Larouche, along with other neighbours, has been hounding Canada Post for months, asking it to change the mailbox to a new superbox.

“I couldn’t even get anyone to talk to me, but then I was transferred to someone in

New Brunswick.”

The neighbourhood wasn’t getting anywhere with Canada Post until Tuesday morning, when Larouche received a call back from the Canada Post manager in Surrey.

“He had nothing on file about our breakins, but did say he hoped to get us a new box in a month or so,” she said.

The new super mailboxes have been installed in many Langley locations, following a raft of mail theft in this area in the past year.

Expansion finally brings maternity care at LMH onto a single floor From Page 3

“With this expansion, our maternity care is now all on one floor which is very important for our patients and our physicians, nurse and clinicians.”

The Langley Memorial Hospital Foundation was instrumental in raising $4.1 million so far from their “It All Starts Here” maternity expansion campaign.

The Vandekerkhove family contributed $1 million to the campaign and many Langley family businesses followed. Fraser Health committed $6.3 million to the new unit. The maternity unit has been renamed The Vandekerkhove Family Maternity Centre, in recognition of the family’s gift to the campaign.

Turning away women in labour is something no staff member at Langley Hospital wants to do, but it had become a frequent occurrence.

When the hospital first opened in 1948, 11 beds for the 85 babies born there each year was very sufficient.

But today, the number of births has increased to 1,800 on average per year. The number of beds has increased by just two.

The new reality is, there just isn’t enough room at LMH to accommodate the growing community.

The number of yearly births is expected to continue to rise to 2,300 over the next seven years.

The LMHF also opened up a new 700 space parking lot across from the hospital to accommodate the growing number of people using this busy health facility.

If you would like to donate or learn more about the Langley Hospital Foundation go to www.lmhfoundation.com.

Friends rally around horse owners FUNDRAISER FOR LANGLEY BARN FIRE V ICTIM S

D AN FERGU SO N Ti m e s Re po r t e r

A Langley family has lost everything as a result of the Sunday fire that killed 17 horses, most of them standardbred racers.

Bill and Laurie Davis were described by Tanis Pearson as a “prominent horse racing family” in Langley, with over 35 years of experience.

“They are leaders in the racing industry and pioneers in their exceptional horsemanship,” said Pearson, a family friend, who is acting as spokesperson for the Davises.

“They’re such a phenomenal family. They’re a household name.”

In addition to the loss of the 17 horses, including a miniature pony, the fire destroyed about $100,000 worth of gear, Pearson said.

“This is such a huge tragedy.”

A trust fund has been set up to help the family rebuild.

Donations can be made to “The Davis Family Trust” at any Aldergrove Credit Union.

Money or E-transfers can be sent to billdavisfamilytrust@gmail.com with the password being mornasbigboy.

A pub night fundraiser is planned for June 18

at the Town Hall pub in Langley at 19640 64 Ave. Tickets can be purchased at A & T Equestrian in Cloverdale at 4615 190 St., or contact 604723-7250 to make arrangements to have them dropped off.

The organizers are also searching for prizes and sponsors for the event.

Pearson said donated equipment for harness racing, such as buckets, halters, stall gates, fly masks, sprays, grooming kits and any other items necessary for horse ownership, can be dropped at A & T Equestrian.

She said offers of assistance have been coming in from across the country.

“The family is very humbled and appreciative of the generosity and the outreach from the community,” Pearson said.

“It is overwhelming and amazing.”

The horses were killed in a massive barn fire which broke out about 2 p.m. on the All Seasons mushroom farm property on 224 Street, near 40 Avenue. Langley Township fire department responded in force, but was forced to rely on tanker trucks, as there are no fire hydrants in the area.

The horses were inside the barn at the time the fire broke out and were unable to be rescued.

Board in support of bargaining MO N I Q U E TA M M I N G A Ti m e s Re po r t e r

The Langley Board of Education may send a letter to both the government and the B.C. Teachers Federation, asking them to reach a settlement in the ongoing teachers’ dispute as soon as possible, but to respect the bargaining process.

Trustee Megan Dykeman moved that the board send a letter to the two parties. She thinks the board “has been very silent on this and that’s why

this letter has been drafted.”

She wants it to say that the board supports the bargaining process, not forced legislation.

Trustee Rod Ross called the letter a bit “apple pie,” but said he would support it.

The board passed Dykeman’s motion.

The only other trustee who spoke was Alison McVeigh, who said she would want all the trustees to see a final draft of the letter to reach an approved consensus on what is being sent out.

Students the losers

we

Published Tuesday and Thursday at 20258 Fraser Highway, Langley, B.C., V3A 4E6 by Black Press Ltd. Sales agreement No. 3298280.

Contents copyright of Black Press.

After weeks of job action by teachers, and increasing intransigence by the provincial government, Langley Board of Education finally ventured forth with an opinion about the destructive labour standoff in schools.

On Monday, the board of education said that the two sides need to concentrate more on bargaining, and reach a settlement soon. Even at that, the board could not agree to send a letter expressing those sentiments, unless the final version is circulated to all trustees to see if it meets with their approval.

While no one can argue that the two sides need to settle down to meaningful bargaining, much more should be expected from an elected board of education.

Its members are called “trustees” for a reason. They are to hold the education of this community’s young people in trust, because it is important and vital to our society.

However, Langley trustees have, until Monday, been silent about the fact that students have already missed two full days of school due to this dispute. They have also missed out on field trips, sports days, track meets and other activities, because of a partial lockout imposed by the employers’ association, which has been shown to be nothing more than an arm of provincial government policy.

Students stand to miss a great deal more. Grade 12 students may not be able to graduate. Some may be kept from post-secondary education in the fall because of the partial strike by teachers, and a full lockout which is set to begin at the end of June.

Younger students may miss some end-of-term exams and getting their final marks. Special needs students, who already have learning challenges, may miss out on even more.

Trustees had an opportunity on Monday to advocate and be a strong voice for students — the only ones who really count in this dispute. They didn’t do so. Perhaps they are afraid to offend the province, the B.C. Teachers Federattion, or both.

Question langeytimes.com

of the week

Do you support Kinder Morgan’s plan to twin the Trans Mountain oil pipeline?

Answer online at www.langleytimes.com

A Kinder surprise they

Kinder Morgan has a big job ahead of it to convince the public that its $5.4 billion oil pipeline twinning project is worth doing and won’t hurt parks, waterways and public property.

True, the company can win regulatory approval but without public acceptance, the project will struggle to get built.

Kinder Morgan must, therefore, work doubly hard to provide reasons it must change the routing for its project, which now is slated to go through at least three Metro Vancouver regional parks or greenways, and possibly Bridal Veil Falls Provincial Park east of Chilliwack.

Tri-City environmentalists are also concerned about a proposal to assemble the pipeline at Colony Farm Regional Park in Coquitlam, although the company says every effort will be made to minimize impacts and provide opportunities for habitat enhancement.

As well, to reduce construction hassles for drivers, the route has been changed from Lougheed Highway to United Boulevard in Coquitlam, requiring the twinned pipeline to cross into the Brunette River Conservation Area and along the Brunette Fraser Regional Greenway before reaching Burnaby Mountain.

The Brunette River, which runs through New Westminster on the border with Coquitlam, is a salmon enhancement success story and you can bet local stream stewards don’t want a heavy oil pipeline anywhere near there. The company says it has had success operating in other environmentally sensitive areas, with twinning projects in Jasper National Park and Mt. Robson Provincial Park, and can use this experience to protect fish habitat here.

This may be good news but what’s odd about this regulatory process is that the company still seems to be investigating its various options while at the same time justifying its plans through the National Energy Board — every change to routing seems like a Kinder surprise.

While there may be sound reasons for these adjustments, and flexibility is good if it’s in response to practical and citizens’ concerns, the provisional nature of the process doesn’t inspire confidence.

We wear many hats Editor: This poem is entitled “For Women Everywhere,” and is also for men who have ever had a wife or mother.

As a graduate nurse I had a white cap, and a uniform worn with much pride, But then I replaced the cap with a veil on the day I became a new bride.

When I opened the clothes cupboard in my new home, I was really astonished to see numerous hats that I’d never worn; they were quite unfamiliar to me.

A housekeeper’s hat, and a cook’s hat were there; a gardener’s hat filled me with fears.

But those are now tattered and almost worn out as I’ve added more hats through the years.

A barber’s, a bookkeeper’s, chauffeur’s and vet’s; a farmer’s from winter through fall; hats for a seamstress and laundress, of course, and a diplomat’s hat tops them all.

Well, sometimes I shuffle and change them so much those hats get all crumbled or worse.

Oh yes, I forgot — when a loved one is sick I still wear the cap of a nurse.

DORIS RIEDWEG, LANGLEY

Vanishing Fort Langley Editor: Many people are concerned about “Vanishing Vancouver.”

Many large and small older buildings are being demolished, to make way for palatial homes. This would appear to some to be wasteful and against environmental and heritage ideals.

The other concern refers to the destruction of the “past,” to make way for present and future development. The destruction of the oldstyle house and garden is happening, to make way for more efficient modern housing, thus creating a new cityscape.

In Fort Langley, we are welcoming development in the village where “necessity is the mother of invention.” The old village, with its quaint shops and art galleries, is being changed to accommodate the burgeoning population and many tourists.

However, Fort Langley is unique in the history of B.C. It needs to retain the atmosphere of the past as an educational and recreational destination for our future families and visitors. For these reasons, the Township of Langley had experts, community planners and staff work with the community to create an official Community Plan and Heritage Guidelines. The main area of the village was legally made a “heritage covenanted” zone.

After plans for one building were rejected as non-conforming by Township planners and much community input, council voted to allow “spot zoning.” for one building. This has created a double standard, as all other builders have conformed to the heritage guidelines and bylaws. The Coulter Berry building planned for the corner of Glover and Mavis will be so massive it will dwarf the community hall.

This decision may set a dangerous precedent for the future of this sample of history — the small town which grew up around the Fort, on the banks of the Fraser River, where our province was established.

If Township council does not support their own rules and treat everyone fairly, Fort Langley, as we know it, will vanish.

Tankers don’t belong in narrow inlets and passes Editor: Re: “Kinder Morgan changes pipeline route,” (The Times, June 2).

This story states that “Kinder Morgan has changed the preferred routing for its proposed Trans Mountain oil pipeline project in some areas and wants more time from the National Energy Board to answer more than 10,000 intervenor-submitted questions.”

Yes — change the routing. But here’s a plan that the B.C. public could accept.

Otherwise, there may be no new pipelines until someone arrives in Ottawa that discusses, listens and then plans — a strange concept for bullies. The present “ready, shoot, aim” method will not work today.

We know that Alberta has lots of bitumen and requires pipelines to get this product to world markets. Canada thrives on its raw material exports. OK, but why have the pipeline proponents assumed that they could run their lines willy-nilly wherever they choose?

Yes, we know that Prime Minister Stephen Harper is connected at the hip to the Alberta oil patch community — but to assume that the B.C. Lotus Landers will accept either pipeline, as proposed, is dreaming. Just forget it.

If Ottawa, Enbridge and Kinder Morgan don’t get the message yet, then they will in October, 2015, when the real NEB (National Election Ballot) will make the correct decision.

To assume that B.C. would accept these behemoth bitumen tankers in our narrow, island-filled inlets and channels and busy passes confirms that Canada’s energy planners all still live in a cave.

ments made by the City to its suppliers last year.

Among the largest expenses for the City were a $6.65 million payment to the Receiver General for Canada.

The amount covers both the City’s share of its policing costs with the Township and income tax paid on behalf of City employees.

A further $2.09 million was paid to the Township of Langley to offset costs of civilian employees at the Langley RCMP detachment, which serves both municipalities.

A $2.9 million payment was made in 2013 to the City of Surrey for Langley City’s share of the railway combo overpass project currently being constructed on the border between the two municipalities.

Water and sewer services provided by the Greater Vancouver Regional District, cost the City $2.2 million and $1.9 million, respectively last year.

The City also paid $1.13 million for services it received as a member of the Fraser Valley Regional Library system One smaller, but notable expense was a $232,000 payment to Rockcliffe Estates — the company which successfully sued the City of Langley after a judge determined the City had undervalued land it expropriated to build the 204 Street overpass.

The money was paid to Rockcliffe last July, after an updated appraisal of the land was made in anticipation of the lawsuit.

The City of Langley encompasses four square miles and is home to about 25,000 people.

Last year, 44 of the people tasked with keeping the City of Langley running smoothly were paid more than $75,000 each to carry out their duties.

Of those, 29 earned salaries of more than $100,000 The figures were made public by the City of Langley last month, in adherence with the Financial Information Act’s rules about public sector salary disclosure.

The City’s Chief Administrative Officer Francis Cheung, topped the list, earning just over $199,000 in 2013. In addition to his salary, $2,993 in expenses were paid on Cheung’s behalf.

Among the other top earners in the City in 2013 were the municipality’s Director of Corporate Services (finance officer) Darrin Leite, who made $143,144 and claimed expenses valued at $4,303 and the City’s Director of Development Services, Gerald Minchuk, who earned $139,096 and claimed more than $11,000 in expenses.

Fire chief William (Rory) Thompson earned $138,970 and claimed expenses of $3,776.

During the May 5 council meeting when the report was made public, Councillor Dave Hall commented that $75,000 seemed like an odd threshold, noting that incomes have grown significantly over the years.

In addition to staff salaries, the report also includes the remuneration, expenses and benefits paid to members of council

last year.

In 2013, the City lost its elected mayor, Peter Fassbender, who was elected in Surrey to serve as an MLA. Before he took an unpaid leave of absence on July 31, Fassbender earned just over $40,000, was reimbursed for $3,882 in expenses and received benefits valued at $2,742 for a total of $46,850.

Acting mayor Ted Schaffer, a member of council who was chosen by his peers to assume the role in Fassbender’s absence, earned $54,188 in 2013, in addition to receiving a benefits package valued at $3,517 and being reimbursed for $6,247 in expenses.

Councillor Gayle Martin received $35,255, including remuneration for her service as deputy mayor. She claimed $5,358 in expenses and received benefits worth $2,344 for a total of $42,957.

Councillor Rosemary Wallace, who also served a term as deputy mayor in 2013, was paid $31,991, received benefits of $5,520 and claimed $2,310 in expenses.

Councillors Teri James, Jack Arnold and Dave Hall each earned $31,338.

Arnold claimed expenses valued at $3,589 and received travel and accident insurance valued at $73.

Hall claimed $625 in expenses and also received $73 in travel and accident insurance as his only benefit.

James’ benefits amounted to $5,632 and she claimed $143 in travel expenses.

George Tidball dies at 83 TIME FOR REAL ADVENTURES

MO N I Q U E TA M M I N G A Ti me s Re po r t e r

A legend in Langley has passed away.

George Tidball, founder of Thunderbird Show Park and the Keg Steakhouse restaurants died peacefully on Tuesday, surrounded by his loved ones. He was 83.

Tidball is known to many as a visionary and a cowboy who was a driving force behind growing the equestrian industry in Langley.

With his wife Dianne by his side, Tidball is responsible for bringing the first McDonald’s Restaurant to Canada in 1967. It opened up in Richmond.

He went on to open 32 more outlets.

Tidball then came up with his idea for the Keg Steakhouse. He envisioned a casual dining spot, where people could eat good food but still wear their jeans.

With his family’s passion for horses, they planted their roots in Langley in the early 1970s.

The Keg in the Country was originally attached to the first Thunderbird equestrian centre he opened at 200 Street, now the site of Colossus theatre complex.

George is survived by his wife, Dianne and the couple’s four children, Jane, Laura, Kathy and Stephen.

Daughter Jane Tidball is president and tournament director at Thunderbird, now located at 248 Street and 72 Avenue.

Thunderbird is one of the top show parks in North America.

The Tidballs were inducted into the Jump Canada Hall of Fame in 2009, recognizing their commitment to the equestrian sport. They were given the Lifetime Achievement Award by the Horse Council of B.C. in 2012.

Tidball was featured in the Times Living 60 Plus magazine in May 2013.

In that article, Tidball said he is a huge supporter of maintaining Langley as a farming commu-

Among those taking part are Gerry and Pat Wilson, who got involved in learning about multiple sclerosis as their 24-yearold son was starting to lose his eyesight.

After receiving a three-day steroid treatment, he was referred to St. Paul’s Hospital for further tests. His mother was apprehensive.

“I had this inkling that this was bigger than what we thought it would be,” Pat recalled.

She was right. Her son was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis — an inflammatory disease in which the insulating covers of nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord are damaged. The damage to the

nerve cells disrupts the nervous system’s ability to communicate, resulting in a range of symptoms including vision problems.

Most people with MS are diagnosed between the ages of 15 and 40, and the unpredictable effects of MS last for the rest of their lives. The Wilsons have been riding in the Fraser Valley Grape Escape since 2004, a bike fundraiser that visits local wineries over the course of a weekend.

“The Fraser Valley Grape Escape is hugely fun and features some lovely wines and yummy eats,” Pat said.

Gerry said “It’s a fun day and we get to know others with MS. It provides a lot of support.”

The Wilsons have raised more than $75,000 for the MS Society of Canada over the years.

LCMS year wraps with showcase

The school year is wrapping up at Langley Community Music School, with its year-end Student Showcase on Saturday, June 7, at 7:30 p.m.

The concert includes a special presentation of Carnival of the Animals, and features award-winning senior students, ensembles and alumni, including past and present winners of the Sharon Stevenson Career Development Scholarship.

The school recently awarded the 2014 Sharon Stevenson Scholarship to two young musicians in support of their continued music education.

Langley resident Stephen Duncan, piano/voice, and Paul Williamson, piano/cello of Mission were each awarded $6,000 towards the cost of their university education.

“Our annual showcase concert is a true highlight of the year, featuring performances from our scholarship winners, graduating students and senior ensembles,” says LCMS principal Susan Magnusson.

“I invite the community to join us in celebrating the success of these exceptional young musicians.”

Additional concert highlights include the 2013 Sharon Ste-

venson Scholarship winner Ben Su, piano, and Sunny Chan, violin, who won the award in 2011.

Sarah Yang, violin, this year’s winner of LCMS’ Concerto Competition, will also perform.

Admission to the concert is free.

LCMS awards the prestigious Sharon Stevenson Career Development Scholarship award annually to one or more LCMS students who have demonstrated musical ability, intend to pursue a career as a professional musician, and are planning to attend an accredited post-secondary institution to study music performance.

Renovated homes go on Parade with the GVHBA

By Kerry Vital

Are you looking to renovate your own home and are in need of ideas? On June 8, the Greater Vancouver Home Builders’ Association is hosting its annual Parade of Renovated Homes, and you’re sure to be inspired.

“Professional RenoMark renovators, many of them awardwinners, will be on-site to offer expert advice and discuss their craftsmanship,” says GVHBA CEO Bob de Wit. “The

renovators are very proud of being part of a professional industry which helps consumers transform their houses into dream homes.”

This year will include a record-breaking 22 homes all over the Lower Mainland, including North Vancouver, South Surrey, Burnaby and Tsawwassen. Among the renovations on the tour will be a beautiful redesign of a century-old home, incredible kitchen makeovers and the renovation of a home from the 1970s into a man’s dream retreat.

NEW HOME DEVELOPMENT

De Wit notes that Metro Vancouver homeowners will spend $3.8 billion this year on renovating their homes, and this event offers you the rare opportunity to walk through professionally renovated homes and gather some ideas and advice.

Admission is via $10 passport, which can be purchased at any of the homes and used to enter all of the homes on the tour. Children 17 and under are free. The parade takes place between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., so be sure to plan your route before heading out.

Part of the proceeds from the sales of the Parade of Renovated Homes passports will be used to fund the purchase of tools, building materials and safety gear for a carpentry training program at Guildford Park and Frank Hurt Secondary schools in Surrey, helping teach students to build new housing and renovate existing homes and fulfilling the growing need for skilled workers.

For more information about the Parade of Renovated Homes and a list of the participating homes, visit www.gvhba.org/ events/eventcalendar.

Varsity, by Redekop Kroeker Development Inc., is a collection of condominium residences that are definitely at the top of their class. With gourmet kitchens, spacious floorplans and tons of natural light, there’s something for everyone at Varsity.

A higher standard of living at Varsity

By Kerry Vital

Redekop Kroeker Development Inc. is rising to the occasion with Varsity, a fourbuilding development in Langley that’s definitely at the top of its class.

“There’s a really nice sense of community here,” says project manager Mimi Chen, adding, “The features are fantastic; it’s an amazing value.”

The two-bedroom condominiums at Varsity are spacious and open, ranging from approximately 840 to 1,090 square feet. RKDI will release the final building for sale later this year, while buyers in the current buildings are able to move in immediately.

The interiors can easily be called exquisite, with oversized windows, wide-plank laminate flooring in the entry, kitchen and living area, and two designer colour schemes to choose between, Cambridge (light) and Oxford (dark).

The kitchen will suit any aspiring gourmet, with granite countertops complemented by alder shaker frame-and-panel-door cabinetry and a ceramic tile backsplash. Under-cabinet puck lighting and stainless-steel appliances are two other beautiful details in the kitchen.

“These kitchens feel like they’re in a house,” says Chen. “You can cook without bumping elbows with someone else; there are no compromises here.”

The bathrooms are soothing and spacious, with rich marble countertops (granite in the ensuite), ceramic floor tile accented by an antique white tub surround and shaker frame-and-panel-door cabinetry. In a masterstroke of convenience, the bathrooms feature motion sensor under-cabinet lighting.

There are other details at Varsity that are proving popular.

“People love the gas connection on the balcony for a barbecue,” Chen says. “If you’re downsizing, you’re not going to lose anything.

That’s a big thing for people.”

Part of the appeal of Varsity is its convenient location. It’s within walking distance to everything you’ll need, from shopping and dining to schools to leisure and recreation. Homeowners will also be close to the new Golden Ears Bridge, making commuting easy.

“We got a walk score of 77 at Varsity,” says Chen. “That’s unusual for Langley, where you often have to take a car to everything. Even though it’s close to everything, it’s very quiet as the buildings are set back from the street.”

Varsity is bordered by two protected green spaces, lending a natural feel to the project that adds to that quiet and calm feeling when arriving home.

“Where else can you get a two-bedroom home for this price, beside green space, and in this location?” asks Chen. “It’s a no-brainer.”

Program trains visiting female leaders FR AN K B U C H O LT Z Tim e s Re po r t e r

First West Credit Union hosted a credit union CEO from Zimbabwe as part of the Canadian Co-operative Association’s women’s mentorship program.

Martha Maziva, a credit union CEO from Zimbabwe, was in Canada for a 10-day visit and was hosted by First West vice-president of communications and public relations Leslie Castellani. She met with members of First West and Envision Financial’s leadership team and observing dayto-day branch operations at Envision Financial’s Willoughby branch in Langley as well as SouthPoint branch in South Surrey.

The program matches women credit union leaders from other countries with host credit unions in Canada, to provide training on areas like human resources, corporate governance, risk management, financial reporting and marketing.

Maziva is CEO of Central Mashonaland Credit Union in northern Zimbabwe. Her credit union, Central Mashonaland in Zimbabwe, has 6,000 members (25 per cent are women) and assets of US$441,524, with a focus on microfinance.

In an interview with The Times, she said that most of the loans given by the credit union are to small-scale farmers, usually for a six-month period. Loans are given for inputs, such as chemicals and supplies, and the interest rate is 16 per cent per annum. Through the credit union, members

use capital they have raised themselves through deposits to borrow money at a better rate of interest than is available from banks or private lender.

She used as an example a farmer who is growing tobacco on one hectare of land.

Over a six-month period, the total loan would be about $850, and would be repaid when the crop is sold.

“Interest rates are determined by members, and we tend to give lower rates than banks,” she said.

Other crops grown by her credit union’s members include maize, groundnuts and sunflowers.

The credit union also gets involved in business in a more in-depth way than their Canadian equivalents. One project involves chickens.

The credit union loans money to individuals, mostly women and young people, to raise chickens, but in addition to lending money, it also determines what the demand is for chickens and helps to sell them when they are fully-grown.

The institution also does training, so that people borrowing money to raise chickens know how to take care of them to get them to market.

It also loans money to individuals who travel outside Zimbabwe to buy goods and import them into the country.

“I’m learning a lot,” she said of her visit to Canada. “I have learned about governance, and how at First West, the board sets the

direction and management implements that direction.”

She has also learned about analyzing loan applications, factoring in credit ratings and reducing delinquency of loans.

“I have also observed that leadership here involves coaching more than leading,” she said.

Maziva is one of 16 women credit union leaders who arrived in Ottawa to participate in the program, a unique professional development experience for international female credit union leaders. She is meeting with First West leaders, including CEO Launi Skinner and Envision Financial president Shelley Besse.

This is the tenth time First West has hosted an international female credit union leader.

Funding for the program is provided by the Government of Canada’s Department of Foreign Affairs, Trade and Development (DFATD) and the Co-operative Development Foundation of Canada from funds raised within the Canadian co-operative sector.

This year CDF has a new campaign in collaboration with Aeroplan. The Beyond Miles campaign will use donated Aeroplan travel miles to help cover the cost of participant’s flights to Canada and to credit unions across Canada for their placements.

So Nice to Come Home to

Come see what we have to offer. Respite and Short Term rentals available.

20363 65 Avenue, Langley, BC www.retirementconcepts.com www.retirementconcepts.com

Two out of every three new homes built in Langley Township went up in the Willoughby neighbourhood during the first four months of 2014.

A development summary report generated by the Township of Langley shows the rapidly-growing neighbourhood accounted for 65 per cent of all new dwelling units in the Township between January and April of this year.

The second busiest urban area of the Township for residential construction was Fort Langley, with six per cent, and Brookswood/Fernridge was third at four per cent.

Residential construction in rural areas of the Township made up 13 per cent of overall

activity.

Every category of residential construction in the Township is showing increases compared to the same period from the previous year, with the estimated value of multi-family construction nearly doubling from $18.7 million to $35.7 million.

More development activity translated into more revenue for the Township, which collected just over $1 million in permit fees during the first four months of 2013 compared to just over $900,000 during the same period in 2013.

The Township website puts the estimated population of the Willoughby/Willowbrook area at 19,400, making it the second largest urban area after Walnut Grove, with 23,900 res-

idents.

The official Willoughby community plan describes the area as “one of the few remaining parts of the community designated for, and capable of, accommodating urban forms of development.”

It has been designated as “ a major development area” that can accommodate 65,000 people, or more than three times the current population.

A lot of that growth will be accommodated by “multi family areas north of 66 Avenue at 203 Street, along 208 Street between 80 and 82 Avenues, at 80 and 212 Street, at 72 Avenue and 208 Street, and at 200 Street between 80 and 82 Avenues and adjacent to commercial areas along 200 Street” the plan says.

A previously-released staff report to council showed Willoughby was the fastest-growing neighbourhood in the entire Township, adding 2,800 new single-family and 2,400 multi-family housing units between 2006 and 2013.

The Vancouver Stealth are making a move behind the bench after a recurrence of throat cancer for head coach Chris Hall.

Dan Perreault — who had served as the National Lacrosse League team’s offensive coach — will replace Hall.

“It has been a difficult decision for me, but necessary,” Hall said in a conference call on Tues-

day afternoon announcing the move.

Hall, who had been undergoing routine maintenance during this past season, said a biopsy showed the cancer had returned.

The long-time coach — he has been with the Stealth since 2009 — will remain in the organization as a senior advisor.

“He was a mentor to many of us and a role model to me,” said Doug Locker, the team’s presi-

dent and general manager.

The fact the team did not go outside the organization for a new head coach is of little surprise.

“He was the only choice and a good one,” Hall said.

“He is the right person for the job.”

“We are excited to have Dan Perreault take on this new role and new challenge,” Locker said.

Four months of hard work are set to pay off with two days of action-packed softball this weekend at Langley’s Noel Booth Park.

“We have been working on this since late January and it has been ramping up ever since,” said Jeff Clegg, who is serving as the tournament co-director, alongside Kimberley Payne.

What the pair are overseeing is perhaps the largest U12 girls softball regional championships ever held in British Columbia.

Eighteen people are on the organizing committee as the Langley Fastball Association and North Langley Softball are teaming up to stage the tournament.

It runs June 7 and 8 at Noel Booth Park (36 Avenue and 202 Street).

Twenty-three teams — from associations representing North Langley, Langley, Abbotsford, Mission, Cloverdale, North Delta, Chilliwack, North Surrey, Fleetwood Park, South Surrey/White Rock and South Delta — will be going for the gold medals.

“We are absolutely elated at the response we got from teams south of the Fraser,” Clegg said.

“The response has been overwhelming, absolutely fantastic.

“It has been outstanding, but also very daunting.”

That translates into more than 300 11 and 12-year-old players — as well as their parents, family members and spectators — who will descend upon Noel Booth Park for the action.

Clegg said the extensive renovations over the past few years at the ballpark on 36 Avenue played a role in helping the two local associations land the big tournament.

“It is really a fantastic softball fa-

cility and without Noel Booth Park, we wouldn’t have been able to host a tournament of this size.”

The hope is that larger tournaments may also help the sport retain players as they tend to see their numbers dwindle after the U12 level.

“If we can provide them with some great memories and experiences of the sport, then there is a greater chance they might stay around the game,” said Payne.

“Player retention is key,” Clegg said. “We want to keep them.”

The action gets underway on Saturday morning with the first pitch set for 8:20 a.m. and the games continuing until 6 p.m.

The opening ceremonies will begin at noon that day with a players’ banquet that evening.

The games resume Sunday at 8:50 a.m. with the finals slated for about 5 p.m. They will be followed by the medal ceremonies.

“No liquid sunshine, hopefully,” Clegg chuckled about the weather forecast.

••• In addition to the tournament, a fundraiser will be taking place on Sunday through a special hitting competition.

Bats for Bartlett is looking to raise money for Katelyn Bartlett, a member of the North Langley U10 super mite team.

The little girl has been diagnosed with stage 4 RMS (Rhabdomyosarcoma) cancer and both of her parents are off work and by her side as she undergoes treatment at B.C. Children’s Hospital.

Players, coaches, parents, friends and community members are asked to make a small donation for each ball hit in Katelyn’s honour.

This will be done between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m.

Notice of Proposed Disposition of Township Lands Notice is hereby given of the intention of the Council of the Corporation of the Township of Langley, pursuant to Sections 26 and 94 of the Community Charter S.B.C. 2003, c. 26, to sell Township owned land, the particulars of which are as follows:

In Residential Areas:

The Township of Langley is full of wildlife habitat, and residents share the area with animals including bears, cougars, and coyotes. While residents throughout Langley do not need to be continually on alert, there are a number of actions that can be taken to deter wild animals if they are spotted in your area. Parents are encouraged to educate their children on what to do if they encounter any of 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:

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 with pups, which are trained to hunt and kill, 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 continues to approach, do not run. Maintain eye contact, pick up small pets or children, and slowly move to an area of increased activity.

Reduce the smell of food by keeping barbecues clean. Keep pet food inside. Garbage is the WARNING biggest attraction for bears so Langley has a large keep it secure and inaccessible to deer population wildlife. Do not leave garbage cans USE CAUTION out overnight: keep them in the ON ROADS 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. Do not use bird feeders, as they attract bears and the birds do not need seeds when other natural food sources are available.

This is the time of year to be extra vigilant with small pets, especially cats, in areas where coyotes are around.

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. Use electric fencing to deter bears from blueberries and beehives, and pick berries and fruit as they ripen.

Be vigilant with livestock and keep them secure. Farm animals are usually killed at night, so bring them inside in the evening.

It is an offence to attract wildlife into a residential neighbourhood.

Those who do not take steps to deter bears and other wild creatures can face a fine of up to $575.

Coach was hall of fame player From Page 31

He added that when Perreault was hired as the team’s offensive coach two seasons ago, the move was made with an eye on having him replace Hall down the road.

“His knowledge, experience, leadership skills and strength of character will stand the Stealth in good stead,” Hall said.

Since Hall took over in 2009, the Stealth won one NLL championship (2010) and appeared in two other Champion’s Cup finals. He was also the league’s top coach in 2010.

Hall ranked third all-time in the NLL for victories with 96 and his 11 playoff victories

Dan Perrault goes from assistant coach to head coach next season with the Vancouver Stealth.

rank fourth. He is also just one of three coaches to have won a Champion’s Cup with multiple teams after leading Calgary to the title in 2004.

But the team slumped this past season — their first in Langley at the Langley Events Centre — with a 4-14 record.

Goal-scoring was a problem for the team, but Perreault feels the pieces are in place for the team to return to the post-season.

“We have a quality core of guys here,” he said. “I think some guys just had off years.

“The Stealth have a winning tradition and I look forward to infusing my style into the team and fulfilling that tradition in the

seasons ahead.”

Perreault is also the head coach of the New Westminster Salmonbellies junior A team and was named coach of the year in the B.C. Junior A Lacrosse League in 2008.

He is also an accomplished player, having won two Minto Cup (Canadian junior A championship) and he ranks in the top five all-time in career points with 536 in 133 games. He finished with 251 goals and 285 assists. In 182 senior A games in the Western Lacrosse Association, Perreault had 469 points (213 goals, 256 assists).

He was inducted to the Canadian Lacrosse Hall of Fame in 2009.

Blaze beat ’Dogs Jesse Peters threw a complete game with eight strikeouts and Bobby Wagner drove in a pair of runs as the Langley Blaze senior men’s baseball team beat the Burnaby Bulldogs 3-1 on Tuesday at McLeod Park.

The game was the Pacific Metro Baseball League opener. The Blaze host Coquitlam tonight (Thursday) at 7 p.m.

The team also plays in th Pacific International League and are 0-2 after losing 5-2 and 3-2 to the Everett Merchants on Saturday.

According to Google Maps, the drive to some tasty yet simple food fare will take approximately six hours and five minutes, and is about 684 kilometres. One way. That’s not including the approximately 8,300 kms travelled to get to Munich, Germany.

The destination: Budapest, Hungary, where I’ll have one night to spend with my grandparents – grandma Ilona and grandpa Pál Lencsés.

I’ve got the use of a bright red 2015 Audi A3 and a full tank of gas, so why not?

Considering I’ll be there less than 24 hours, words like “ambitious” or “motivated” or even “crazy” might describe my reasoning. But heck, if it means I get a home cooked meal, I’d travel all night.

Relatively speaking, I’m so close to them. I couldn’t let the opportunity go to waste. And anyone who loves their grandparents’ cooking will sympathize.

Putting the finishing touches to the magnificent Mustang Our classic and collector car expert continues today with the third part of his fourpart series on the restoration of public relations executive Laura Ballance’s rare 1967 Ford Mustang T5 by 360 Fabrication in Abbotsford.

The Mustang T5 body shell has been painted, clear coated, wet-sanded, recleared and finally polished to a show quality finish.

Now comes the fun part of a restoration, the reassembly, opening boxes and fitting all of those new parts.

This is as close as you can get to being a car factory assembly line

worker except you are doing every task instead of just one, and you have all the time that is needed and not having to work to the speed of a moving production line.

One of the upgrades that the T5 will receive is a new product designed to dampen and suppress the driveline and road noise, making the inner cabin as quiet as possible and a bit like a modern car.

The foil covered pads have a peel off backing and are adhered to every inner sheet metal panel such as the roof, floor, doors and bulkhead. The next step is to install the new wiring harness; old wiring harnesses

become brittle over time due to heat and corrosion at the joints and terminals, ask the owner of any British Sports Car from that era!

The interior has been completely renewed from top to bottom staring with the headliner, trim panels, carpets, dash pads and the seats have all been reupholstered.

Before the new back glass and windshield are installed (all of the other glass panels have been replaced) the new vinyl top is installed. Installing a vinyl roof is not a task that is performed very often these days but 360 have the skills to

do this in-house.

LKQ stocks a huge selection of high quality muscle car sheet met-

al and parts. “If you are doing a premium muscle car restoration the only sheet metal you want to use is from LKQ,” asserted Rick Francoeur at 360.

The exterior panels will soon have their final fitting. They have been fitted and removed during the restoration process

countless times to make sure that the panel gaps are correct. The final fitting process will involve two or three people to make sure that the paint does not get chipped or damaged.

Before the original V-8 engine was removed from the car it underwent a compression check, all of the cylinders had equal and strong readings so a complete re-build was not necessary. The carburetor has been replaced with a new two-barrel, the automatic transmission has been completely re-built as has the rear axle.

Rick talked Laura out

of fitting a modern rack and pinion power steering kit or even upgrading the manual steering box to a power-assisted unit so it will be reliving the Armstrong steering experience for Laura when parking at low speeds!

One safety upgrade is the installation of original Ford front disc-brakes; these are a must in today’s traffic. Collector vehicle drivers are very cautious, invariably when accidents occur it is the drivers around you that are not paying attention or cutting you off.

360 have done their research and paid

a lot of attention to detail during this rebuild, right down to avoiding the temptation of installing an exhaust system with two tailpipes.

Next week, we will explore what exactly a T5 is? How rare they are and explore some of the events that Laura and her brand new old car car will be attending in this 50th anniversary year of the Ford Mustang.

ROSS; Donna Joan February 24, 1931 May 28, 2014

LIND, Charlcia Ann Aug. 12, 1925 - May 27, 2014 Charlcia passed away peacefully at Peace Arch Hospital, surrounded by family, who all loved her very much, and who will miss her captivating smile, laugh and wit. God rest her soul.

She lived her life as she wanted, very independent, right to the end. Her passing was sudden, just the way she wanted. Charlcia worked hard throughout her life and met any challenge head on, she was always there to help when needed, and was very conscientious. She enjoyed life and had a very fun loving personality, and was never afraid to speak her mind. She enjoyed a challenge in anything she did, whether it was crib or golf, alley bowling etc., and loved to have people over. We will certainly miss her home made cooking and baking, especially butter tarts.

Charlcia was born in Madras Oregon and lived in 19 cities and 3 provinces throughout her life. Charlcia will be sorely missed by her daughter Roberta, who was her best friend and with whom she spent so much quality time.

She cherished family and friends. She was predeceased by her husband Harold, then Bobbie, and son Leonard, her sister June and brothers Earl and Les. Charlcia was part of a large family and leaves behind her daughter Roberta (Neil), 4 grandchildren, Rob (Angie), Michelle (Steve), Dede (Rob), Nicole (Shawn), and 13 greatgrandchildren Karissa, Danielle, Brayden, Melissa, Dustin, Sean, Liam, Owen, Kaylee, Keaton, Carly, Taylor, Kiera, and 3 nieces and 9 nephews.

The last few days of her life were filled with joy and happiness. She went to her great granddaughters wedding (Karissa and Andrew) and was with all her family. We have a lot of great photos and memories that will be cherished.

We’ll miss you, and will be in our hearts forever. Thank you for sharing your life with all of us.

Donna passed away at the age of 83 at the Langley Memorial Hospital. Donna resided in Toronto and surrounding GTA until 1978. She relocated to British Columbia with her husband G. Douglas Pritchard, their five children and her parents; predeceased Fred and Ruby Lisk. Donna was predeceased by her husband Doug in 2001. She had the wonderful opportunity of remarrying her husband, James Ross in 2006. Donna will be remembered by husband James, her sons; Jason (Catharine) Pritchard and John Pritchard, daughters; Sherianne (David) Saunders, Susan (Brian) Batchelar, Sandra (Roland) Curnow and Jim’s daughter Roxanne (John) Keddy, her grandchildren; Tracy Lee, Shannon, Ryan, Andrea, Christopher, Jordan, Mitchell, extended grandchildren and great grandchildren, nieces and nephews. Donna, a member of the Eastern Star will be fondly remembered by her gorgeous smile, her love of laughter and generous nature. A Memorial Service will be conducted by Pastor Earl Wood at Legacy Church of the Nazarene, 9012 160 Street Surrey, BC on Saturday June 21, 2014 at 2:30pm. A service will be held in Toronto, Ontario, date to be determined. In lieu of flowers, you may make a donation to the Alzheimer Society of Canada.

Collie Doodle Puppies (Collie x Poodle) Born Feb 26. Mom is a Rough Collie (45 lbs) and Dad is a small Standard Poodle (50 lbs).

Both have health clearances (eyes, hips, elbows). 2 very curly black females avail. We have bred this litter special to create the perfect family companion (intelligent, gentle, easy to train, always willing to please, happy indoors and outdoors, good with children and animals, low to no shed). These puppies will not need a heavy hand to train. They are sweet, kind and sensitive puppies. They will be very similar in looks and in nature to the Golden Doodle only smaller, calmer and will mature sooner. We are a 4H (agility, obedience, showmanship) family and our dogs are a part of our home and life and we wish the same for our puppies. Please consider the time and commitment needed to raise a dog and you will have our support and guidance for life. Pups will have shots and deworming. Reduced to $850. 604820-4827
