Jackie Knauer, left, and Judy Pohl of Magical Murals stand in front of their latest creation in Fenton Lane. The large landscape painting took about a week to complete — time which the women donated to the project. “We’ve seen how hard (the City and DLBA) have been working to clean up the downtown core and we wanted to help make the City pretty,” said Pohl. “We’ve seen everyone working so hard, and seen so much improvement over the last 10 years.” The artists, who have worked together for the past eight years, were publicly thanked at Monday’s City council meeting for their contribution. It can be viewed in Fenton Lane which branches off the Fraser Highway one way next to Choo Choo’s restaurant. Pohl and Knauer have also completed murals at Al Anderson Memorial Swimming Pool and Penzer Bike Park. See more of their work at magicalmurals.ca. D A N FE R GUS ON Langley Time s

Langley’s top cop off to Israel SUPT. DEREK COOKE TO ACT AS POLICE ADVISOR IN JERUSALEM MO N I Q U E TA M M I N G A Ti me s Re po r t e r

Langley RCMP Supt. Derek Cooke is leaving his post to work as a senior police advisor in Jerusalem as a member of Operation Proteus. It’s a one-year mission. He will be advising on human rights-based policing, helping to work with the Palestinian Authority security forces located in the West Bank, which is within Israel, on policies, proce-

dures and training. He is working among 20 or so top Canadian military personnel to be sent there. He is the only RCMP member involved. Operation Proteus is an important component of Canada’s broader engagement in the Middle East peace process. “For years I thought it would be amazing to be involved in a UN mission. “A position came available. I’m

getting towards the end of my career and I saw this as a great opportunity. “I discussed it at length with my wife and we decided I would apply,” said Cooke. He spoke with The Times from Ottawa, where he is in training for two weeks before being deployed sometime in August. “As I’m speaking I’m watching the missile attacks in Israel on the TV,”

he pointed out. Currently, the situation in Israel is volatile with air strikes escalating. A replacement for Cooke in Langley has not been named. RCMP members have always been involved around the world working in various peace missions in places like Afghanistan, East Timor and Sudan, for example. Continued Page 5

City beefs up security at Innes Corner STEADY GROWTH OF ILLEGAL ACTIVITY AT GATEWAY TO LANGLEY CITY DOWNTOWN BR ENDA ANDER SON Tim es Reporter

D AN FER GUS ON L an gley Tim es

Langley City Councillor Rosemary Wallace says a security camera at Innes Corner won’t stop people from using the area to buy and sell drugs. Wallace would like to see more businesses open in the area in the evening, to encourage more pedestrian activity.

Incidents of drug dealing and loitering have become so prevalent at Innes Corner plaza that the City of Langley has decided to put nearly $90,000 toward beefing up security at the busy public square — including the installation of a video surveillance camera. But one council member believes having more human eyes on the City’s downtown core is a better solution than installing a single electronic one. Council voted unanimously on Monday night to improve both lighting and visibility at the plaza and fountain, which has become a hotbed for the sale of illegal drugs. And the majority of council agreed that an even more drastic step needs to be taken to combat the steady growth of illegal activity in the public square. Of the $86,000 total cost — which will be taken from the City’s Enterprise Fund — $45,000 will be used to install video surveillance in the square, located at the corner of Fraser Highway and Glover Road. The remainder of the money will pay for new LED bulbs — to replace the current 20-year-old lighting — and to prune trees to improve sight lines around the plaza. Innes Corner plaza is a prominent gateway to the City of Langley’s downtown core, said City CAO Francis Cheung. However, from one week to the next, the City is noticing a steady increase in loitering and illegal activities, he said, adding that there is growing concern for public safety. Both bylaw enforcement and police presence have been increased in the area, but further steps need to be taken, council decided. The video surveillance camera will use infrared technology to produce clear images of people’s faces, even at night. In response to a question by Councillor Jack Arnold, regarding the monitoring of the feed, Cheung replied that it would be looked at only if there was an incident. “We can provide it to the RCMP,” he said, adding video will be available for about two weeks before being recorded over. Councillor Rosemary Wallace said that while she is in favour of installing better lighting and pruning trees, she isn’t convinced more video surveillance is

the answer. “At this time, there is not enough information on what security cameras actually do,” she said. “We’ve got security cameras at McBurney Lane and Douglas Park — now Innes plaza. “What are police on bikes doing?” “It comes down to availability and demand for police,” replied Cheung. “We’ve asked the RCMP to increase patrols, but they can’t be there at all times. Video surveillance is there all the time and it acts as a deterrent — being monitored.” “I think (police) resources are being overused in that area,” said Councillor Teri James, who relayed her own recent experience walking across Innes plaza. “I was asked today if I wanted to buy drugs by a group of about 14 people — at two in the afternoon.” When police arrive, they scatter and then re-congregate once the officers are gone, she added. Acting mayor Ted Schaffer told council that he is very much in support of installing a surveillance camera at the plaza. “They’re very, very helpful,” he said. “It’s a deterrent. If it stops one or two, even minor incidents, it’s money well-spent.” Speaking to The Times the following day about the problems at Innes Corner, Wallace remained unconvinced. She wondered aloud about the message that surveillance cameras send. “What are we trying to create here, the impression we’re a totally unsafe city? “We need to do more about public presence.” One part of the solution, Wallace said, is to encourage the kinds of businesses — restaurants and pubs, for example — that tend to be open late, to locate in the downtown core. She pointed to Vancouver’s Commercial Drive area as an example for the City to follow. “There are all kinds of people there — that’s the way life is,” she said. Wallace believes the City’s downtown merchants are doing what they can, but said it is up to developers to buy into the idea, and for people who are sitting on developable property to allow that land to be redeveloped. “Make it exciting, make it a livable city and people will come.”

Ten kittens from two different litters were found in a box that was taped shut and left beside a dumpster on a hot day in Langley City last Thursday, July 3. According to animal shelter manager Sean Baker, a good Samaritan heard meowing from the box and opened it. Three kittens escaped and haven’t been seen since. The rest were brought to Langley Animal Protection Society. Sadly, one kitten didn’t survive and the remaining six wouldn’t have either, if it hadn’t been for the good Samaritan. Baker said the kittens were very thin and hungry and wouldn’t have survived another hour in that box. They were brought to Mountain View Veterinary Hospital to be looked at. A LAPS staff member took them home the first night to provide round the clock care. Now they are eating, playing and doing very well at the shelter, he said.

Three appear to be older and are all male. They will be available for adoption after they are fixed. The younger ones will be ready for adoption in five weeks and will spend some time in foster care. “They appear to be social and friendly. They are not feral kittens,” Baker said. He has been back to the area to attempt to locate the three miss-

Noel Booth was a former councillor and reeve in Langley Township and was well-known for his mobile store. A former store building and gas station on the property are expected to be demolished.

Israel situation volatile right now From Page 1

Langley RCMP Sgt. Dave Carr has been involved in several missions, his last being in South Sudan. Cooke said he isn’t in a place in his life where roughing it is appealing. “I like a nice shower in the morning and plumbing,” he said. His deployment to the West Bank where modern amenities

are the norm, in a location with fascinating history is the “Cadillac of assignments.” And while at most UN missions, family are not allowed to visit, if the country is stable and it is safe to do so, his wife and two daughters can come visit. “It could be an amazing cultural experience for my family,” Cooke said. There was medical, physical and psychological testing he had to get through to be accept-

ed for the mission. “I have MS. I have had it for years. I have been very fortunate in that I’ve been very stable and have no mobility issues,” said Cooke. “I have some sensory issues. But I have been cleared to go.” Cooke isn’t too worried about his safety there, although he recognizes that escalating violence between Israel and Hamas means the situation is changing all the time, he said.

Summer is here

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.

It’s been a long time coming, but a spell of hot summer weather is with us, and will likely be for at least the next few days. Farmers are taking advantage of the weather to cut and cure hay, and sunbathers are taking full advantage of the rays. Hopefully, most of them are using sunscreen, as the UV level from the sun is quite high. While the weather this spring and summer has been pretty good for the most part, it has not been hot, except for a few isolated days. That is now changing. It started to get hot on Monday and weather forecasts call for it to last into next week. It will likely be 30 degrees or better each day in Langley. Weather like this always seems to take its time in getting here, but when it arrives, few people are unhappy. As we live in a damp and generally cool climate, this type of weather is a far cry from the norm. And the fact that it still cools down in the evenings make it much easier to take as well. It’s a good time to plan on taking part in favourite summer activities over the next week. There are no shortage of them — cycling, walking, running, farm tourism, boating, sunbathing, swimming and many, many others. While doing so, think about doing something new and different — and something that is right in your own backyard in Langley. There are so many interesting things to do here, yet many Langley residents don’t know about them. Consult The Times’ Discover Guide or look online. When you do, you will discover something very interesting and unique about this community, and chances are, it will be something you enjoy doing.

Question langeytimes.com

of the week

Do you plan to spend any of your vacation time in Langley this summer?

Answer online at www.langleytimes.com

Few can argue — successfully, anyway — against the statement that mental illness touches everyone. There are, of course, those with the diagnosis. Then there are their children, siblings, parents, friends and co-workers. Even complete strangers are often hit with the ripples, as society is forced to bear the burden of missed work days, medical visits, inadequate treatment options, etc. It doesn’t matter that research has led to many strategies and treatments that, when adhered to, can help sufferers live productive, even normal, lives. Perhaps if it felt easier to talk openly about mental illness, things would be different. For those directly affected, it can feel simpler to try to ignore the reality — to keep the door closed and the windows shuttered, so to speak. Not the healthiest approach, really, but common nonetheless. And while time has led to strides in the realm of mental illness, it has done less for society’s acceptance of it as a disease. Many worthwhile stories do not get told in these pages because of the stigma attached to mental illness; the fear people have of being branded by going public with their struggle. “Mental illness” are two words that, despite so-called progress, few afflicted with the likes of depression or schizophrenia or paranoia dare to mutter outside — sometimes even inside — their immediate family. Make no mistake, there are many tireless advocates for the mentally ill. Many of these individuals are parents, siblings, friends or colleagues of those living with a mental illness. A few are those individuals themselves, who have taken that brave step into the spotlight. All know firsthand the impact of the conditions. They know the difference that acceptance — both of the conditions and the person trying to live a balanced, productive life with them — makes. We can all learn from them. Efforts by people like Olympic cyclist and speed-skater Clara Hughes, who rode coast-to-coast to help squash the stigma, are helping effect change. But there is still a long way to go. No one should feel the need to hide something they cannot control. The reality is, many of us share the blame for the fact so many people do. — Peace Arch News

Mayor not ‘with’ residents

F RANK BUC HOLTZ La n gley Tim es

Flags were in abundance at this year’s Canada Day event.

Thanks for support Editor: On behalf of the Langley’s International Festival Society, I would like to thank The Times for promoting and supporting Langley Canada Day and Langley’s International Festival. The event was a huge success, and that was not possible without your help. This year, Langley Canada Day was one of the best celebrations

that we ever had in Langley. Again, thanks to you and the staff for your continue support. Very special thanks to Brenda Anderson for highlighting the celebrations. SARWAN SINGH RANDHAWA, COMMUNICATION AND MEDIA DIRECTOR, LANGLEY’S INTERNATIONAL FESTIVAL SOCIETY

Education questions Editor: I would like to address the problems outlined by international student Jinseok Kim (The Times, June 24), one at a time. First and foremost, if you can provide readers with the name of the individual(s) who forced you to leave your homeland and seek an education in Canada, we will be happy to hunt them down and ask them for a refund on your behalf. Or is your education here to increase your chances of entering a Canadian university, and not paying the rates charged to international students? If education here is not cheap, then why are you doing it? Second, the teachers have made it abundantly clear that this strike is all about you, the students — not money. You should be thanking them. Third, I am very curious, as possibly some other readers are. Who exactly does this $80 a day go to? If it’s the school district, it seems clear to me you shouldn’t be paying while the strike is in effect. However, if it’s to the host family who is providing your accommodation and meals, isn’t that still being provided? HUGH PATERSON, LANGLEY

Editor: I was fascinated to read the article on Mayor Jack Froese running for re-election (The Times, June 24). I especially found a couple of his quotes interesting. “Over the past three years of my term, I have immensely enjoyed working with the residents of Langley as we continue to build a vibrant community to meet the needs of today and future generations,” he said. At what point did he work “with” the residents? At every turn he voted in favour of whatever any developer wanted, and not what the residents wanted. He also said “I am very pleased with the progress council and I have made during this term.” That means he is pleased with the debacle that is called Willoughby. He said “We have faced many challenges as we

worked together with our community towards ‘lasting solutions’ We need to do a better job of consultation.” I have to ask, at what point did he work together with the community? He speaks about the Brookswood/Fernridge OCP and says much more consultation with the community is required. This is blatant “political speak,” as even after the huge and unprecedented movement against the Griffiths neighbourhood plan and the Brookswood/Fernridge OCP, he and Councillor Grant Ward were the only ones to ignore the community’s wishes. They both voted in support of that developer-friendly plan. We can only hope that we get to make choices in the upcoming election, before our paradise is completely paved over. DON TOCHER, BROOKSWOOD

Let’s use our resources Editor: I am appalled by the many frivolous lawsuits filed against the Northern Gateway pipeline project by various interest groups. If these groups had lived in the 1880s, when the Canadian Pacific Railway tunnels were chiselled through the Rocky Mountains, or in the 1950s and 1960s, when the Trans-Canada Highway, the longest in the world today, was built — neither would have seen the light of day. We would still be living in the horse and buggy days today. Think of how many things these resources are used for. There is gasoline, oil and diesel for transportation, building materials, clothing and countless

other items we use today. What if these conveniences were cut off to us? Yet, how stable is the supply we get from Iraq? The Northern Gateway pipeline allows Canada to become an energy superpower, by pumping an estimated 525,000 barrels of oil each day. Canada would establish self-sufficiency, create more jobs and vastly improve economic conditions. Developing natural resources is called progress. They are put there to be used wisely, not to be disregarded. GERTIE POOL, ABBOTSFORD

Langley Animal Protection is doing excellent work CRITTER CARE ALSO COMMENDED BY READER Editor: I want to say thanks to Langley Animal Protection Society, who came to the rescue when I found a puppy in a drainage ditch near the SurreyLangley border. Additional thanks go to the staff at the Super Save gas station on 24 Avenue, who let the dog stay there until LAPS came. It was a story of my dogs looking, too many bushes shadowing the ditch, a frightened

puppy whose umbilical cord area was still puffy, and a wonderful animal control officer who at the moment loved her job. LAPS and Critter Care are two of the Township’s biggest assets, helping domestic and wild creatures that deserve help just as much as we do. CATHLEEN VECCHIATO, BROOKSWOOD

A piece of aluminum foil 4. boiling water, must be very hot. Place piece of aluminum foil in bottom of container. Sprinkle baking soda over item, a thin layer should do. Pour hot water over item to cover. Use tongs to move items around in the water. The secret is that item must touch aluminum foil. The more silver in the item the faster it works. Happy cleaning.

Township of Langley councillor Bev Dornan spoke in favor of a financial bailout for the Senior Games last month to help cover an $80,000 shortfall. The city also contributed. DAN FE R GUS ON Langley Time s

Donor fatigue has hurt the 2014 BC Seniors Games, forcing organizers to seek financial help from both Langleys. Milt Kruger, president of the Langley 2014 B.C. Seniors Games Society, said it has been “very difficult” to secure local sponsorship in the wake of the 2013 BC Special Olympics Summer Games and the 2010 BC Summer Games, both held in Langley with support from local businesses. “Our fundraisers are finding that our local business community is showing signs of fatigue with respect to the sponsorship of major events,” Kruger said in a letter to the Township and City councils asking for help to cover an projected $75,000 shortfall. The society was asking for $60,000 from the Township and $15,000 from the City in the form of a cash advance, which could be partially refunded if more sponsors are found. The most recent Seniors Games in 2013 were underwritten by the host city of Kamloops through their “Tournament Capital” sports tourism initiative, Kruger noted. On Monday, June 9, both Langley councils approved the bailout. At the Township meeting, Councillor Bev Dornan was one of several who spoke in favour of the cash advance, saying “we should be there to help them [the society] get through these difficult times. At the Langley City meeting, Councillor Gayle Martin said it was “very disappointing that some of this could not have been seen when the board of directors were putting their budget together.” The latest contributions bring the estimated total donated by both Langleys to almost $200,000, $152,000 from the Township and $27,000 from the City. That doesn’t include the cost of cutting rental rates in half for Township facilities like the Langley Events Centre. The thousands of athletes who will compete in B.C. Senior Games held Sept. 9-13 were expected to produce an estimated $2 million in economic activity by the participating seniors, according to the B.C. Seniors Games Society.

Liquor licence applications approved for casino, Cactus Club ALY S S A O ’ DE L L Ti m e s Re po r t e r

Langley City council approved two liquor license applications, which allow a pair of local businesses to serve alcohol to guests, 19 and older, later into the night and in more spaces than currently allowed. Council endorsed the proposals during the June 9 regular council meeting, after no residents or property owners showed up to weigh in on the issue at a public hearing in the council chambers before the vote. Cascades Casino and Cactus Club Café submitted the proposals to the City of Langley to have their liquor licences expanded, with the restaurant seeking longer hours and the casino looking

to add floor space, both inside and outside the building, where alcoholic drinks may be served. Cascades has also opened a new pub and restaurant, called Match Eatery and Public House. “They’re a great restaurant in the city,” said acting mayor Ted Schaffer of Cactus Club after both votes. “And to Cascades, you are now fulfilling the city’s interests in a greater entertainment area.” Although council unanimously approved both applications, Councillor Dave Hall voiced concern over one applicant, Cactus Club, not having a formal arrangement with a local taxi company, given the proposed later hours of alcoholic beverage service and location’s inacces-

sibility to public transit late at night. The restaurant, whose delegation at the council meeting cited an excellent record of employee training, evaluation and liquor service safety, is proposing to delay last call until 1 a.m. on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays and until 1:30 a.m. on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays. “Other arrangements must be made, and I think it’s the obligation of the service provider to come up with a plan for those arrangements,” said Hall, who finished by suggesting that the applicant research transit differences between the Langley location and other more transit- and pedestrian-friendly locals in the Cactus Club chain.

A heavy downpour drenched Langley City on Sunday May 4. It was a “1 in 75 year rainfall event” according to a Township engineering division report.

Rainfall record was set in May SPRING DOWNPOUR WAS ‘ONE-IN-75-YEAR EVENT’ DAN FERGUSON Times Reporter

If you remember thinking that it was more than a little damp out on Sunday, May 4, you were right. A rain gauge on the roof of the Township of Langley civic facility recorded a “one in 75 year rain-

fall event”, a report by the municipal engineering division said. The gauge collected 54 mm of rain in a six-hour period that started at 2 p.m. Environment Canada said that kind of concentrated rain over a short period is something that occurs once in a “70- or 80-year

time frame” the report to council said. The 24-hour rain fall total was 80 mm. The heavy downpour caused “relatively minor” impact on municipal buildings, the report said, but there were a number of calls for service from private property owners.

N O T I C E O F C O N S T R U C T I O N : 4 8 AV E N U E R E C O N S T R U C T I O N The City of Langley will be commencing reconstruction work on a portion of 48 Avenue, between 208 Street and H.D. Stafford Middle School. The work includes reconstruction of municipal services (watermain, sanitary sewer, and storm sewer improvements) as well as widening and alignment changes to the existing road surface.

Project Schedule Work on this project is anticipated to commence on or about July 14, 2014, extending until approximately mid-September 2014. Access During Construction Access to portions of 48 Avenue may be restricted to local traffic only during the construction period, with intermittent lane closures and traffic redirection in effect from time to time. Traffic control personnel will be on hand to direct vehicles and pedestrians safely. Questions/Comments Residents affected by this project may contact the Engineering Department, Langley City Hall, 20399 Douglas Crescent, Langley, BC, between the hours of 8:30am and 4:30pm excluding statutory holidays, or via telephone at (604) 514-2800.

The City of Langley reminds residents and businesses that lawn sprinkling regulations will be in effect from June 1, 2014 through September 30, 2014. Sprinkling schedule can be accessed online at: city.langley.bc.ca

During the summer months, seasonal rainfall is at its lowest and water consumption, due mainly to outdoor use, almost doubles. Sprinkling restrictions during this period of time help to manage demand on the existing Metro Vancouver and City of Langley water distribution systems.

Referendum brought forward GIGANTIC TENT SALE! many important perspectives ONE DYA!Y MSAECWHININGES FABR

A few weeks before the landmark decision declaring aboriginal title proven by the Tsilhqot’in Nation, I picked up a used university textbook that looked like a handy reference. Geography in British Columbia: People and Landscapes in Transition, by Brett McGillivray (UBC Press, Second Edition) is a good reference, except where it strays from geography into politics. This 2005 edition came out not long before the B.C. Treaty Commission started producing agreements, notably with the Tsawwassen First Nation. It recounts the establishment of the Ministry of Native Affairs by the Bill Vander Zalm government in 1990, and the election the next year of Mike Harcourt’s NDP, who reversed the province’s historical legal position and tried to accept the existence of aboriginal title. At this point the textbook departs from the facts and leads its freshman pupils into left-wing dogma. McGillivray writes: “When the Liberal Party won the 2001 election (with all but two seats), it launched a province-wide referendum on treaty negotiations, prompting commentators to suggest the government was ‘trying to impose 19th century ideas on a 21st century problem’.” “Commentators” in the above quote is of course only one commentator, veteran lefty Vancouver columnist Stephen Hume.

Arguably, that’s what has emerged from the Tsilhqot’in case, which upholds provincial jurisdiction over public forest policy on environmental and fire protection on aboriginal title lands. By 2009, frustrated with a lack of progress, due to Ottawa’s inaction as well as inconsistent leadership from aboriginal communities, the Campbell government tried to cut the knot. Its proposed Recognition Act would have accepted a form of aboriginal title across the province, based on 30 historical “indigenous nations.” That idea originated not with the province but with the First Nations Leadership Council. It was rejected by a broader group of aboriginal leaders later that year. The best way forward, also endorsed in the 2002 referendum, is sharing land use planning. B.C. has also begun sharing resource revenues. The most likely path, however, is back to court for years to come. Tom Fletcher is legislature reporter and columnist for Black Press.

Benefits Of Bamboo Flooring! Bamboo is an eco-friendly, highly renewable source of material which grows much faster than traditional hardwoods. Moso Bamboo is the primary species used for the manufacturing of flooring and it can grow up to 4’ per day and 75’ in 45 days. It takes about 3-5 years for Bamboo to reach maturity. Traditional hardwoods take 20-120 years to mature. Bamboo can be harvested without replanting and in a sustainably harvested forest only 20% of the forest is harvested annually allowing for 100% harvest in a 5 year period. Bamboo naturally needs no irrigation, no fertilizers and no pesticides as it has very few pests. Trillium Bamboo Flooring is certified to meet the standards of the Forest Stewardship Council for environmental and social responsibility.

Proposed new federal government regulations for railway/ road crossings will cost the Township of Langley more than $300,000, just to carry out required safety assessments . A report to council by municipal transportation engineer Richard Welfing adds the Township will also be on the hook for the additional cost of fixing any safety issues uncovered by the assessments, fixes that must be made within five years. “The Township of Langley has 29 at-grade crossings for a total estimated assessment cost of $295,000 to $435,000,” the Welfing report says. While there is federal funding for safety improvements to atgrade crossings, the funding is limited and projects are often put on a waitlist, the Welfing report warns. Collision statistics from ICBC show of the 43,000 car and truck crashes recorded between 2008 and 2012 in Langley, 90 or less than one per cent occurred in level crossings. “Staff is concerned that if significant resources are required to address at-grade railway crossings and the new standards, that this would limit the resources available to address others locations,” the report says. It identifies other concerns about the proposed new reg-

The Township of Langley currently utilizes three full-time and one seasonal roadside grass mowers for ditch mowing. This equipment has predetermined routes, or an assigned area to follow. Should the equipment be pulled away to do a specific request it only lengthens the time it takes to fully complete all the rural boulevards and ditches. If you have a request for mowing or brushwacking, we ask that you be patient as we try to fit the work schedule in as efficiently as possible. The Township, along with Provincial and Federal agencies, have classified the open channel water systems into three categories: Class A ditches are fish bearing; Class B ditches are fish habitat. Both of these categories require formal approval before any work can be completed. Class C ditches are deemed to have no fish or fish habitat issues whatsoever and require notification only for work to take place. Therefore, how or when a ditch is cleaned will depend on its classification. We thank you for your understanding as we operate under these requirements. Engineering Division 604.532.7300

More than $60,000 was raised at the ninth annual Langley School Foundationâ€™s Grand Prix celebration at Thunderbird Show Park on June 1.

Xplorer program at Fort Langley SURGERY GONE WRONG? We have obtained large settlements for injured clients who reside in your area.

Call 604-435-6948 or visit us at: www.surgerygonewrong.ca

The new Parks Canada Xplorers program for children aged six to 12 can be checked out today (Thursday) at Fort Langley National Historic Site. From 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., there is

a launch party with fun activities, free tattoos, and a souvenir lunch bag for the first 50 participants. Regular admission fees apply. Family members can try the

program with some ramped-up activities, including a visit from Parka the Parks Canada mascot. Detail at http://www.pc.gc.ca/ eng/lhn-nhs/bc/langley/activ/ activ2.aspx.

Greenhouses to be built at schools From Page 19

One of those essential programs is meal programs at schools. “We are really doing a push on making sure all kids in the district can be fed and to keep this program sustainable,” said foundation executive director Susan Cairns.

“Sadly, the need in the district is great and there are many coming to school hungry.” Along those lines, the foundation would like to fund greenhouses at school where vegetables can be grown by the students and used in the meal programs. “Then the students can take

ownership and feel they are contributing rather than feeling like it is a hand out,” she said. This already exists at Aldergrove Secondary and the goal is to bring it to Brookswood Secondary next, said Cairns. To learn more go to langleyschooldistrictfoundation.org.

Morningstar brings luxurious view homes to Maple Ridge By Kerry Vital

Morningstar Homes has an excellent track record for building spectacular single-family homes, including nine neighbourhoods on Coquitlam’s Burke Mountain, and are one of the largest single-family builders in the area with nearly 2,000 homes built to date. Now they are heading out to Maple Ridge to showcase their expertise with their latest project, The Summit at Grant Hill.

“These are some of our best designs ever,” says Deborah Calahan, vice-president of sales and marketing at Morningstar. “Add to that the scenic backdrop of the Golden Ears Mountains and it’s just magical.” In fact, Calahan notes that she’s already had a lot of people contacting her wanting more information about the project, or to purchase a home immediately. “We’re thrilled at the response to our homes,” she says. “We’re bringing our best ideas from Burke Mountain to Maple

NEW HOME DEVELOPMENT

Ridge … and adding some new twists.” They also have Robertson Heights coming soon to Maple Ridge, with an expected opening in early September. “Maple Ridge is a new area for us, full of natural beauty,” Calahan says. “Here, we’ve created new designs that address the stunning views and natural surroundings and blend with the uniqueness of the neighbourhood.” In this case, it is sprawling estate homes with three-car garages and huge windows to capture the maximum amount of views and nature possible! The Summit at Grant Hill will feature 26 four-bedroom luxury homes on 1/2 acre homesites with large, private backyards perfect for a hot tub, basketball court or pool. It’s up to you! The lush greenery surrounding the homes adds to the sense of peace you’ll feel as soon as you enter your new home, and the views of the mountains and blue skies are simply stunning. Inside, the vaulted ceilings, gorgeous kitchens and relaxing bedrooms are designed to impress, and Morningstar is offering CONTINUED INSIDE

Blexo Developments’ Delta Rise is a premier real estate opportunity in North Delta, with huge balconies, spacious homes and a prime location that offers stunning views and easy access to shopping, dining, leisure and recreation opportunities.

Rising to the top with Delta Rise By Kerry Vital

Blexo Developments is bringing a new class of real estate to North Delta with Delta Rise, a curving tower with a glass facade that has buyers all over the Lower Mainland getting excited. “You have to see it to believe it,” says Satish Sharma, principal at Blexo Developments. “You can’t replicate this anywhere else.” As the tallest tower in North Delta at 37 storeys, Delta Rise offers amazing views, and large balconies to take advantage of them. “The balconies are larger than those in some single-family homes,” Sharma says. At 300 square feet, he’s right. The balcony offers tons of room for entertaining or relaxing and watching the sunset. Oversized windows let the natural light pour in, while 8’6” ceilings and spacious floorplans contribute to the luxurious feeling in every home. Homes at Delta Rise range from 475 to 1,039 square feet, in a variety of one-, two- and three-bedroom plans. The gourmet kitchen, with its stainless-steel appliances and polished quartz countertops will suit chefs of any calibre. “These finishings are extremely highquality,” says Sharma.

The bedrooms have built-in wardrobes instead of traditional closets, adding an extra level of convenience to your home, and the bathrooms are stylish and elegant, with a floating laminate vanity, polished solid quartz countertops and a deep soaker tub with integral skirt and full-height stacked porcelain tile tub surround. Delta Rise is part of the revitalization of the Delta area, which is rapidly becoming an important hub for growth and investment. It will be located minutes from the new North Delta Community Park and Rec Centre, as well as Sungod Recreation Centre and several other parks and green spaces. Schools, shopping and dining are all within walking distance. In fact, Delta Rise will have a coffee shop in its lobby, as well as a resident concierge service. Other amenities on-site include a rooftop courtyard on the third level, with a park, outdoor barbecue pit, playground, garden plots, outdoor fitness area, zen garden and much more. Inside, there will be a fitness centre, media and entertainment rooms, a workshop, a library and meeting rooms, among other amenities. “Delta is truly open for business,” says Sharma. “It has so much to offer.” Homes at Delta Rise start at $199,000. For more information, visit www.deltarise. ca, call 604-594-RISE (7473), or stop by the presentation centre at 11941 80 Avenue, Delta, open daily between 1 and 6 p.m. Monday to Friday and noon and 5 p.m. Saturday and Sunday.

plenty of options for customizing your home, from exterior gable lighting to a master bedroom sitting room. Windows are always a big thing in a Morningstar home, and that continues at The Summit at Grant Hill. This time, they’ve included walls of windows to let the natural light pour in and take advantage of the views and natural surroundings. Morningstar has built two show homes for buyers to visit. “We take the guess-work out, by providing show homes that are tangible examples of what your home will be like,” says Calahan. “Prospective purchasers can walk through the show homes and choose which floorplan is right for them!” Buyers at any Morningstar project are assured of great customer service as well as the peace of mind in knowing that they are purchasing from a reputable builder who will stand behind the homes they sell. In fact, Calahan notes that she often sees buyers looking at a Morningstar home after a friend or family member purchases one. “Word-of-mouth is our best form of advertising,” she says. “We’ve found the secret recipe for making homeowners happy.” Buyers will certainly be happy with their home at The Summit at Grant Hill. “This is definitely going to be a winner for us,” says Calahan. “We are building luxury homes on large scenic properties at great prices; now that’s something that you don’t see every day!” Purchasing a new home can be stressful, but Morningstar always endeavors to take the stress out of home-buying experience (that is the Morningstar Promise after all!), making it easy for you to sit back and enjoy the process. Morningstar is holding a grand opening of The Summit at Grant Hill on July 12, starting at noon. Calahan urges interested buyers to pre-register, which will give you earlier access to purchase one of the homes. The sales centre is located at 25465 Godwin Drive, Maple Ridge, and homes will start at $690,000 plus GST.

Langley Rams’ special teams coach Kris Little watches as the offensive line (left) and defensive line get set to engage on Saturday at McLeod Athletic Park. The junior football team kicked off an intensive training camp as they ready themselves for the start of the B.C. Junior Football Conference regular season on July 26. The Rams will host the Vancouver Island (VI) Raiders in the 2014 season debut. The two teams have met in the Cullen Cup championship game — the league final — the past three years with the Raiders winning the crown in 2011 and 2013.

game,” said Mullin. “He is hard on us, but we know when he gets mad, he just wants the best for us.” She added that when he may be upset or disappointed at the team, they tend to have the ability to crack him up, forcing him to turn away so the players can’t see him laughing or smiling. “No matter what, through the ups and down, he will take (the time) to explain to you, making sure that you are doing your best and being the best you can be,” Mullin said. “He is definitely not just a coach. “If we lose but we tried, he is more than happy. But if we lose because we didn’t really try our hardest, he will get mad because he knows are better (than that).” Adams is happy with how this

season has turned out. Back in the fall, the Rebels were in danger of not having enough players to field a team, but managed to grab a few more bodies. “The core from last year, we knew they could make it to provincials and do very well,” he said. The team placed third over the weekend in Abbotsford at provincials (see page 38). The Rebels have one more tournament, as they are the lone Langley team taking part at the 2014 Canadian Open Fastpitch International championship. The annual tournament begins July 11 and runs through until July 21 at Softball City (2201 148 St.), Sunnyside Park (15455 26 Ave.) and Cloverdale Athletic Park (6410 168 St.).

We want your old, obsolete electronics. By Craig Wisehart Executive Director Electronic Products Recycling Association Western Canada

unny days are here again; it’s the perfect time to clean out the clutter and get rid of old unused items that are just sitting and collecting dust, such as old electronics. Research shows that roughly 87 per cent of BC households have at least one obsolete electronic item sitting around. A good idea is to try and get these electronic items reused by people who are in need of them. And if that option is exhausted, recycling these electronics is the next best option. The Electronic Products Recycling Association (EPRA) will recycle all those old unwanted electronics through the Return-It Electronics™ program, and they accept virtually all of your unwanted end-of-life electronics. From televisions, desktop and portable computers, gaming systems, electronic musical instruments and electronic toys such as remote control vehicles and handheld gaming devices, the 171 Return-It™ collection sites throughout BC will take these unwanted electronics for responsible recycling. Dropoff is free as an Environmental Handling Fee (EHF), which covers the cost of recycling, is applied on the sale of new electronic products. (For a full list of accepted products, visit return-it.ca/electronics/products).

Roughly 87 per cent of BC households have at least one obsolete electronic item sitting around. Once collected and sorted, items are sent to audited and approved recycling facilities throughout North America where they are broken down. Products like batteries and mercury lamps, which require special processing to recover materials, are removed. The remaining products are separated into their individual components for recovery. Through a variety of refining and smelting processes, the materials reclaimed from unwanted electronics, such as metals, glass, and plastics, are used as raw materials in the manufacturing of new products.

EPRA accepts virtually all of your unwanted electronics. In this era of rapidly advancing technologies, people are upgrading and replacing electronics at an accelerated rate, with personal computers being replaced on average every two years, and businesses replacing desktop and mobile computers every three to four years. Using and enjoying all of these electronics today means that it is very important to ensure your old electronics stay out of the landfill for a cleaner tomorrow. The EPRA is a national non-profit organization dedicated to responsible recycling of end-of-life electronics. In 2013, more than 23,000 tonnes of electronic waste were collected in BC, and since EPRA’s program began in 2007, over 110,000 metric tonnes of unwanted electronics have been recycled in BC. And, according to EPR Canada, BC has consistently received top ranking in their annual Canadian Report Card on Extended Producer Responsibility, whereby producers take a leadership role in managing the waste generated from their products. We can be proud in BC of our strong history of electronics recycling. The more we recycle, the more we can help the environment by reducing the amount of waste collecting in landfills. So take this opportunity, and drop off your old and unwanted electronics at your nearest Return-It collection site for recycling. ADVERTORIAL

A season that almost didn’t happen culminated with a podium finish at the provincial championships. Back in the fall, the Langley Rebels had just 10 players — including only one pitcher — and were in danger of folding before the season even began. But thanks to the addition of a couple of out-of-towners — including a few more pitching arms — and the Rebels season was a go. And the U18 rep B fastball squad capped things of over the weekend with the bronze medal. The Rebels were among the 16 teams that hit the ball diamond July 4 to 6 at Abbotsford’s Exhibition Park. And Langley got off to a great start with wins in five of their first six games to book a spot into the semifinals.

But the Rebels lost to the Surrey Storm 96 and then to the Cordova Bay Blackout in the double-knockout format to finish third. What stings even more is the fact Langley beat both those teams earlier in the tournament. “We had it in our grasps,” said Langley coach Rob Komorowski. “But I am really proud of the girls; it is an accomplishment they should be proud of. “We are very proud of them, there is no other way to describe it.” Komorowski said that coaches can instruct players all they want, but the time comes when the players just have to get on the field and execute. “You can teach them all you want, but when it comes down to it, they have to go and get it done.”

The Rebels now shift their focus to the 2014 Canadian Open Fastpitch International championship. The annual tournament begins July 11 and runs through until July 21. The Rebels are the lone Langley squad taking part in the elite event, which is being held at Softball City (2201 148 St.), Sunnyside Park (15455 26 Ave.) and Cloverdale Athletic Park (6410 168 St.). They will play in the Futures Select division. The majority of the teams in their division are from B.C. Three other teams are from Washington State and one is from Saskatchewan. “They are very excited,” most have them have never played at it before,” Komorowski said. He has coached teams in the past at the event, but this is his first year with this group of girls.

The Langley All-Stars warmed up for this weekend’s provincial championships with a dominating performance. The All-Stars, a team of 11, 12 and 13-yearolds, were competing at the Sea to Sky Invitational over the weekend in Whistler. And the Langley squad went a perfect 5-0, out-scoring their foes by a combined 446. The All-Stars cruised through the round robin with a 5-1 win over

Whistler, 11-3 over Dunbar and 7-1 against Squamish. In the semifinals, they h a m mered the hosts 11-1 and then shut-out Hastings 10-0 in the championship final. Langley faces Whalley in a best-of-three series this weekend in Whalley with the winner advancing to the national championships in Calgary.

••• Langley’s Kathy Lim finished two strokes off the lead at the B.C. Ju n i o r G i r l s Championship last week. The 16-year-old was consistent over her four rounds at The Dunes at Kamloops, shooting two-underpar 71’s the first three days. She was one stroke back heading into

briefs

Friday’s (July 4) final round. But Kim shot a twoover-par 75 to place second behind Victoria’s Naomi Ko. Kim finished with a four-under-par 288 while Ko was six-under-par 286. With her second-place finish, Lim was chosen to represent B.C. at the Canadian junior girls championships, which will be held July 28 to Aug. 1 at the Thornhill Golf and Country Club in Thornhill, Ont.

It took a huge toll on my mom. “We searched all across North America for help (but) there’s not much out there.” Collins, a former junior and semi-pro football player, started the foundation in 2012, raising the bulk of the money by kicking field goals.

Question of the Week Driveway test driver Zack Spencer says today’s crossover vehicles have replaced the popular station wagon of yesteryear. Do you agree? Is there something about the station wagon that appeals more to you? Go to DrivewayCanada.ca to submit your answer. QUESTION

Lexus joins the compact crossover lineup with the all-new NX.

OF THE WEEK!

Drive The worldwide launch of the NX was held right here in B.C., driving between ultra modern Vancouver and the rustic resort of Whistler. International guests were exposed to the two sides of the NX, the polished city vehicle and the weekend getaway SUV. Powering around the mountain resort, I got my first shot at the all-new 2.0L direct inject turbocharged 4-cylinder that Lexus will use in a number of its vehicles. With 235hp and 258 lb.-ft. of torque this new power plant does a good job once the NX 200t is in motion; it is getting away from a stop that could use a bit more snap. AWD is standard across the lineup but the system is designed to run in front wheel drive as much as possible to help save fuel. Lexus has made no bones about its target; it sees the Audi Q5 as the benchmark in this class. Audi has been at the small turbocharged game a lot longer and it shows, plus the handling of the NX isn’t sharp at all. In fact, all the passengers inside the base model test vehicle noticed the top-heavy body roll. Verdict What Lexus (Toyota) has been up to over the past ten-plus years is

producing hybrid cars in numbers nobody else can touch. This new NX is also available as a hybrid, but don’t expect any kind of show-stopping performance. Rated at just 194hp, the heavier NX 300h hybrid might be outclassed by just-as-thrifty diesel options in the market. The price of the NX 200T has not been set but if you look at the Audi Q5 as a target, expect the price to start at roughly $41,000 when it goes on sale at the end of 2014. Fuel economy has also not been set but with a direct injection turbocharged 4-cylinder under the hood, this new Lexus should be better on fuel than the larger RX350 equipped with a V6 engine. As the small SUV market continues to grow, and this new NX certainly is one of the most eye-catching to come along in a while. The Lowdown Power: 235hp 2.0L turbo or 194hp hybrid Fill-up: N/A Sticker price: N/A

Safety Tip: There are some quick safety checks you can make on your vehicle to protect yourself and your passengers. For starters, make sure the head restraints are at least level with the top of the head and as close as possible to the back of the head to help prevent injury.

The five cars baby boomers miss the most Baby boomers are in full nostalgia mode as they contemplate their lost youth. And as the last generation that really bought into North America’s love affair with the automobile, it’s natural that some of that nostalgia is of the fourwheeled variety. Here are five of the cars that baby boomers miss the most: Pontiac GTO: It’s still hard for Widetrack fans to believe that the by Rob Sass entire division is no more. It was a virtual tossup between Nos. 1 and 2 as to the most missed car, but with the 50th anniversary of the GTO (and arguably the muscle car itself) coming up, it has to be the Goat. Not the Australian Holden-in-disguise that we got from 2004-06, mind you, but the real 1964-72 bit of classic American muscle. Pontiac Trans Am: With Pontiac and therefore the Firebird gone, it’s reasonably certain that the famous T/A, with surely the most audacious hood decal, is gone for good

(at least from GM). For people who just can’t accept that, performance car genius Ken Lingenfelter will sell you a fantastic Trans Am-inspired Camaro LTA. Chevrolet El Camino: The half-car, half-pickup concept had real legs, lasting from the 1950s through the 1980s. It deserves another shot but GM seems to disagree, having on multiple occasions stubbornly refused to bring back the beloved El Camino. MGB: MG was the sports car Americans loved first, with servicemen bringing back MG TCs after WWII. When it was introduced in 1962, few could have imagined that the MGB would be the last new MG sold in the U.S. Nonetheless, that’s how it played out. In 1980, with the British auto industry in a free fall, the quaint factory in Abingdon, England, was closed, and that was it for MGs in the U.S. A shame; even though woefully outdated, the MGB had little to no competition and

could have gone on almost indefinitely, or at least until 1989, when the Mazda Miata was introduced. Those of a certain age still miss the little MGB on sunny days. Oldsmobile Vista Cruiser station wagon: Nearly every boomer has a story about the Vista Cruiser, whether it’s a road trip from hell or just getting

shuttled to school or Cub Scouts or Brownies in one. The Vista Cruiser, with its unique windows on the roof and the back, backseat where misbehaving siblings could be banished, was the official wagon of the wonder years for so many boomers. continued on page 44
