More high school classes crowded

ENT

463-8831

Now 53 with 30 or more students

By Nei l Corbe tt ncorbett@mapleridgenews.com

The number of crowded high school classes in the Maple Ridge-Pitt Meadows school district – those with 30 or more students – has more than tripled.

In Wednesday’s last meeting before this Saturday’s school board election, trustees heard there were 16 such crowded classrooms in 2013-2014, and this year there are 53.

Maple Ridge Teachers’ Association president George Serra said teachers are always concerned with high class sizes.

“We can say all the cliches we want about how great we’re doing, but at the end of the day, if class sizes are that large, teachers can not meet the needs of every student.”

Candidates about easing tax pain But ‘zero increase is not achievable’

By Phil M elnyc h u k pmelnychuk@mapleridgenews.com

Pitt Meadows mayoralty contender John Becker says he can create a zero-tax increase budget for residents, and do it without painful cuts that would peeve residents.

A similar process in Maple Ridge, though, would be too painful, says the mayor, seeking a third term.

Zero-based budgets are not part of Ernie Daykin’s plan, if re-elected.

“If we do a zero-based budget, or a reduction, then we have to have those real hard discussions – what are we going to cut? What are we not going to deliver? What are we not going to build?”

Passing a budget without a property tax increase next year would be just passing costs down to residents in future years. The city has a responsibility to manage its finances without burdening future generations, he added.

GJ’s TREE SERVICES

However, another candidate for mayor, Graham Mowatt, says it would be worthwhile to present a zero-based budget.

“There are lot of inefficiencies that we could find in city hall in order to get to a zero-per-cent increase.”

He’d like to staff to do zero-based budgeting exercise and wants more public input into the process.

“It may turn out we can’t do it, but that’s my goal. We should at least take a look at it.”

Mowatt says trimming spending

by between $2 million and $3 million would be enough to create no tax increase. A three-per-cent increase in property taxes works out to about $1.8 million in revenue.

If elected, Mowatt would also put a wage freeze on the non-union management staff within city hall that he says get annual two-per-cent raises.

Staff increases, though, are pegged to those that Canadian Union of Public Employees get, Daykin added.

Mowatt also opposes widening the Haney Bypass, as a further cost saver, and is also against building Fire Hall No. 4 on 112th Avenue at 240th Street.

“I’m against opening No. 4 fire hall. It’s just too much money. We just can’t afford the taxation for that at this time.”

Council, this year, re-authorized borrowing $7.4-million for that project, including equipment needed for a new fire hall.

Where to put the Pitt overpass Becker team’s traffic solution draws fire

By Nei l Corbe tt ncorbett@mapleridgenews.com

T

he Allen Way overpass being touted by mayoralty candidate John Becker and his team as the solution for Pitt Meadows’ traffic woes is extravagant, if not pie-in-thesky, according to opponents.

Becker touts the plan of having a long overpass, crossing both the CPR railway crossing and the Lougheed Highway, at Allen Way. It is a way to get commuters out of the city quickly, without having to stop for trains, and as an alternative entrance to the city would take some of the traffic pressure off the Harris Road Intersection.

Bill Dingwall, seeking a seat on council, said there is no question that traffic congestion on Harris Road and on Lougheed Hwy. through Pitt Meadows are frustrations for residents and a “really big priority issues for Pitt Meadows.”

He noted that the proposed overpass at Allen Way would easily be a $100 million project, and take years to secure funding for, let alone design and build.

The cost alone, he said means the city should seek more viable solutions.

“The citizens sure can’t afford to pay for all that.”

He said council’s role is to lobby the provincial and federal government

Congestion on Harris Road has long been a source of frustration for Pitt Meadows residents. for funding to remedy the traffic situation.

The North Lougheed Connector, to Abernethy Way, is a partial solution to east-west traffic congestion, Dingwall said, and noted that Pitt Meadows should be a good neighbour to Maple Ridge on that project.

“Maple Ridge has already invested a lot,” he said.

Council candidate Andrew Thompson said highway overpasses at both Allen Way and Harris Rd. would have to be investigated thoroughly. Harris Rd. would impact businesses, but Allen Way would take land out of the Agricultural Land Reserve.

“And what about residents on

188th Aveune?” he asked, noting that their residential neighbourhood would suddenly become a main traffic artery.

Thompson pointed out that the Coast Meridian Overpass in Port Coquitlam, which he says would be a comparable project, cost $132 million to build.

“And that was five years ago. What is it going to cost now?”

He suggested the costs could be more than $150 million.

The total cost of building a connecting road and an overpass at Harris Road was pegged at $34 million, excluding land expropriation. Another report from the city suggested the figure would be closer to $52 mil-

lion.

Thompson added that the city should concentrate on rapid bus on the highway and improving community shuttle services.

“We’re under serviced for transit.”

Mike Stark, part of Becker’s team, supports the Allen Way overpass.

A new overpass at Lougheed Hwy. and Harris Rd. would be good for eastwest traffic on the highway, he concedes, because the traffic light would be eliminated.

“But it does nothing for the Harris Road railway crossing.”

He noted that 22 trains per day travel through the city, blocking commuters before they can even get

to the congested highway.

“It seems like every time you go up Harris Rd., you’re stuck.”

Stark pointed out construction of an overpass at Harris Road would be disruptive to businesses in the area, whereas the Allen Way project would have comparatively minimal impact.

He said the project cannot be compared to the Coast Meridian overpass because the Port Coquitlam route spans an entire train yard. The Allen Way proposal could be shorter than the Coast Meridian’s 580-metre span, he estimated.

He acknowledged it is only a viable plan if it has one-third funding from both the federal and provincial governments, and if the railway puts in 15 per cent.

“If you don’t have a plan, it’s never going to happen,” said Stark.

He added, when the plan is put to residents, as he knocks on doors, “they love it.”

Becker noted that a member of his team, Coun. Bruce Bell, resurrected an old idea with the Allen Way overpass, and the team embraced it as a potential solution to gridlock in the city.

It would obviously require the support of the CPR, highways ministry, residents of the area and federal government.

The idea is to have Baynes Road continue north, elevating in time to get vehicles over the tracks and across the highway.

He concedes it would be an expensive project, and could not be done without partnerships from senior government.

“It’s not something that’s going to happen overnight,” he concedes. “But we need to plan for this, regardless.”

He said investigating the Allen Way overpass is a task the new council should undertake in the first year of its mandate.

Maple Ridge mayor’s race too close to call

By Phil M elnyc h u k pmelnychuk@mapleridgenews.com

J

udging by the two-fold increase in people in the advance polls this year, Maple Ridge residents might be eager to get the voting booth Saturday. They might be eager for a change.

And they might be eager to see someone else in the may-

or’s chair, says Gary Cleave.

Cleave is one of the five running for mayor and knows he’s not going to win. But he’s confident council will change.

“I would not be at all surprised to see a change of mayor,” Cleave said.

“I think that Ernie [Daykin] and Mike [Morden] are probably going to split the probusiness Liberal establish-

ment vote. Those guys are going at it hammer and tong.”

While Morden’s been criticizing Daykin, he might pay the price as well for being on the existing council that people want turfed.

“I would not be surprised to see both mayors lose,” said Cleave.

“But right now, the only thing I feel comfortable with

is the advance polls suggest there’s going to be a different council.”

A total of 1,492 people showed up at the early voting booths this year, double that from 2011.

Morden’s campaign organizer, Wilson Sieg, says municipal elections are difficult to call because there isn’t the same amount of voter infor-

mation available as is in provincial elections.

Sieg has managed dozens of campaigns at the federal and provincial levels.

“When you’re this close to the action and you’re in a bubble, it’s really hard to say.”

Every candidate’s goal should be to get enough peo-

ple to turn out and then elect a good council, he said.

“It’s just about five good people wanting to become mayor.”

Nicole Read and Graham Mowatt are also seeking election as mayor.

Morden’s campaign sent out “voice-drop” messages to the land lines of about 18,000 voters Monday, with a 30-second message.

Why Do You Vote?

We asked you to write the final ad in this series.

These are your words.

Voting is a hiring process. Candidates are job applicants, and voters are the employer. Your vote is your voice, it’s one of the most powerful tools you possess – the other is your point of view. In your point of view, who is best for the job?

Who do you want to hire?

Lara Cooley It is a right that we are very privileged to have and we need to acknowledge that. Voting is an important part of democracy and a way to have you voice heard. Every vote counts, plus it’s one of the easiest ways to be involved in how our society is governed :) Miranda Tymoschuk My family has been in Maple Ridge for six generations. I’m proud to call this city home and I want to continue to be. Canadian soldiers gave their lives so we could live in a democratic country.

Do them the respect of voting.

Kiirsti Owen I vote because election day is four days after Nov. 11 and you aren't honouring the people who fought for your right to vote when you fail to do so. Not going to vote? Might as well take off that poppy pin right now.

Troy Machan Why do I vote? because it's the thing to do to be a good citizen. because I believe that my values of caring for each other should be lived out. because community spirit shows when we all engage, whether by voting or voicing our opinions.

I vote because I care about what happens in my community.

Katie Stein Sather

Who among us doesn’t want to matter, doesn’t want to make a difference, doesn’t want to be heard? In our democratic system, we have the opportunity to do all three – by voting in the upcoming civic election.

For most of my adult life, I didn’t vote. Why bother? My vote didn’t matter. One government’s as bad as all the rest. Nothing will ever change. Sound familiar?

Then, several years ago, I decided it was time to grow up and take responsibility for myself. That included realizing I had an obligation, as a citizen of Canada, to be heard, whether in a federal, provincial, or civic election.

Not only did I have an obligation to be heard, but also I had an obligation to decide what was important to me, to inform myself on what candidates had to offer in terms of what was important to me, and to get my ass out there on the appointed day and mark my ballot.

It’s time to grow up. It’s time to believe what you have to say through your vote matters. It’s time to invest in your community, the place where you live, the place where you’re raising your children, the place that will change – maybe for the better, maybe for the worse – even if you don’t vote.

To make sure the change is the right change, for you and for generations to come, get your ass out there on November 15. No excuses. Do your research. Be heard. Play an active role in your community. Stop letting other people’s voices matter more than yours. Make yours matter. VOTE! Rick Modien

There are seven polling locations open from 8:00 am to 8:00 pm on Saturday, November 15.

It’s up to you Maple Ridge.

Get engaged.

‘A real mood for change’ Mayor from 3

The numbers of unlisted phone numbers or those who only use cellphones reduces the number of land line connections that pollsters or politicians can access.

Sieg said the voice drops have produced some positive and neutral responses.

Feedback received at the front doors of residents is also hard to gauge, he said. People are reluctant to say how they feel in a small community.

Daykin, seeking a third term as mayor, said it’s obvious some people want a change. But he still considers himself the front-runner.

“I’m getting a ton of positive feedback and support.”

He says he believes he’s been a good leader of council, but may have to adjust his style.

He makes no assumptions, though.

“I think it’s going to be a tight race for sure.”

He said the high point in the campaign was the debate on homelessness and crime at the Salvation Army, where he was criticized for rising crime rates.

“Yes, it was tough to hear those things said about me.”

He’d be willing to talk about relocating the Salvation Army’s Caring Place, situated at the entrance to downtown on 222nd Street and Lougheed Highway, if other agencies agree.

Mowatt predicts an increase in voter turnout of between 10 and 20 per cent over the 25 per cent total from 2011.

“I think there’s a very real mood for change,” he said.

“The No. 1 issue is crime.

They feel nothing has been done.”

Graham Mowatt, mayoralty candidate “The No. 1 issue is crime. They feel nothing has been done.”

Mowatt predicts he’ll finish second with Daykin the winner and Morden third, “if not fourth.”

“There’s hardly anyone I find, except some Rotarians and business people, who are supporting,” Morden, he said.

Morden said by voice mail that he was feeling “happy and healthy” and was looking forward to Saturday night.

Voting time Change is a powerful word in politics. There will be change in the faces around the tables that govern our tax dollars after Saturday’s municipal elections.

Much of that change has been forced by events.

In Maple Ridge, an incumbent councillor is running for mayor. Two other sitting councillors did not seek re-election.

In Pitt Meadows, the mayor didn’t seek re-election, and Doug Bing vacated his council seat earlier in the year to fulfill his role as MLA. School board trustees Kathy Marshall and Sarah Nelson also did not run again.

So there will be change, even more on committees and regional boards as representatives fill new roles.

While change can be a powerful motivator, we wonder if it hasn’t become more rhetoric than reality.

Has the United States changed much after six years of Barack Obama?

Change and hope were his mantra.

That said, the beauty of municipal politics is its closeness. No matter who you vote for Saturday, that person is, in a sense, your neighbour.

You will see them in the grocery store, walking their dogs, at the gas station.

These are the people responsible for spending your tax dollars every year.

When the federal election comes along next year and candidates toe party lines on foreign policy issues, we will long for the relevance of municipal politics.

We salute all of the people who have had the courage of their convictions and put their names forward for election. We hope to hear more from them than a need for change, or that they’ll listen to you.

But we recognize the commitment made by these candidates, the risks they have taken.

The least we can do, as taxpayers and their neighbours, is cast a vote on Saturday.

You owe it to yourself to vote T

he civic election campaigns in both Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows are almost over, but you still have a chance to cast a ballot.

And please spare me any garbage excuses about not having enough time or you forgot the date or Sidewinder the dog ate your ID. Sandy Macdougall If you care enough about your city or the School District 42 board of trustees, you will get off your butt long enough to get to the nearest polling station to vote.

If you don’t give enough of a hoot about these things to vote, for the next four years, please don’t whine to me about your disappointment with the decisions and actions of these locally elected officials.

There are plenty of candidates for all of the offices in both cities, but they need support to make their efforts worthwhile.

If you can only find one candidate to support, then go out and vote for that single candidate, but don’t sit at home and pass up the opportunity to show your pleasure, or displeasure, with the candidates.

A recently published poll indicated

Q

uestion of the week:

widespread dissatisfaction with many local councils in Metro Vancouver, including Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows.

But does that civic displeasure apply to all incumbents or just a few?

The decision is up to voters to settle.

Have the incumbents performed sufficiently to merit further support or re-election?

Again, that is up to the voters. But the only ones who matter are the voters who actually get out to vote.

One thing I hear frequently is, “What difference does a single vote make?”

Let me tell you, it can make a huge difference.

The first time I ran for public office, I finished a long way back of the successful candidates. But the second time around, I finished just 17 votes behind Reg Franklin, a veteran member of council. I called for a re-count and subsequently closed the gap to finish within 10 votes.

For the next several months, people would approach me to explain that they were sorry and apologized for not voting.

If just 11 of those apologetic friends had got out to vote for me, I would have won.

The point I am trying to make is to emphasize that every vote is important.

And it also helps meet the obligation we have as free citizens living in a democ-

racy.

There are many important issues at stake for both city councils and the board of school trustees. Whether it’s urban sprawl, commercial development, transit, transportation, or school construction, important decisions are facing both cities and the school trustees.

We have had ample opportunity to determine the policies and attitude of the candidates on the issues we consider important and now we must express our acceptance or rejection of the candidates by way of the ballot.

And when the final counts are announced in both cities, we will have four years to decide if we made the right choices.

You owe to yourself, to your children and grandchildren to carry out the simple obligation of free citizens living in a democracy to vote.

In this past week, we gathered to remember and honour the sacrifices many people have made on our behalf so we could continue to enjoy our democratic rights and the freedoms we enjoy living In Canada.

Don’t betray the legacy of those heroes and many others who fought and died or made other sacrifices for our country by not exercising your right to vote.

THE NEWS/letters online comments Don’t be ‘farm team’ Don MacLean · retired: Re: Hayes wants all bridges tolled (The News, Nov. 12).

Perhaps the voters of Pitt Meadows should be asking the members of the left-wing ‘slate’ why three of them voted against a new mall on the north side of Lougheed Highway, which would, at completion, provide the city with $2 million of direct tax revenue and 1,000 jobs. No, not all of the jobs would be “mortgage payers.” They would, however, provide our young people an opportunity to get started in the work force close to home or to assist mom and dad with college tuition. Perhaps they would allow some of our more unfortunate citizens to avoid lining up at the food bank or even help some of our homeless. Meadowtown Mall currently contributes over $1,250,000 annually directly to the city. Try to imagine what our taxes would be without it. Try to imagine how our taxes could be reduced with another $2 million annually. Currently, the commercial and industrial tax rate is approximately 2.5 times greater than that of the residential rate, and yet they use very few of the services that we, as residents, use.

Shouldn’t we have more commercial and industrial taxpayers?

Please do not let anyone tell you that requiring the developer to pay for and build the North Lougheed Connector will somehow obligate the city to assist in building the Harris Road/Lougheed Highway interchange.

However, if the connector is not built, there is no reason for the province or feds to step forward with any grant funding for the interchange. The traffic tie-ups will continue and likely worsen.

Also, please do not let anyone tell you that their vote was to protect farmland. Three of the slate voted against reasonable farm homeplate legislation that would have protected our farmland against the continuing influx of monster estate homes on fertile land. Those lots will never be farmed again.

Finally, please don’t allow our city council to become another farm team for the provincial legislature. Provincial ideology has no place at the community level. When you vote on Saturday, please vote for those candidates whose hearts are in Pitt Meadows.

Who’s in it for public good?

Editor, The News: Wow, how exciting: five candidates for one mayoral position, 26 candidates for six council positions and 12 candidates for five school board trustees.

That’s 43 names to go through for a total of 12 positions.

And almost all claiming that they are running because we need big changes and that they are just the right person to accomplish

this.

Well, congratulations, you are accomplishing the exact opposite.

How many people do you think are going to do their due diligence and seriously wade through the pile of information to elect just the right ones for the job?

The actual result of this endless list of candidates will be that most of those who do go out to vote will throw up their hands and

vote for the names that are familiar to them, namely the status quo, and we end up with mostly the same people we have now.

And do you still wonder why we have such a low turnout of voters?

Is it not perfectly clear that it is for the same reason: they can’t be bothered spending the time to sort things out and shrug their shoulders with a ‘who cares, nothing changes

anyway.’

How I wish that many of you would not be in it for personal gain or recognition, but truly be interested in the public good.

If that were so, most of you would support the few candidates who have the best chance of unseating the old guard so that we would indeed get the change we say we desire.

Trustees must care about future Editor, The News: Trustee confusion is rampant.

Ask any Maple Ridge or Pitt Meadows resident to name a school trustee and most will say the name of a well-known Vancouver trustee.

So why does everyone know her?

Because she is doing her job: making sure school kids get

the best education possible.

She’s frequently in the media and is willing to push the government with demands for more funding. She shows her frustration for the Liberal party, which has reduced education spending by more than $3.3 billion, has sucked B.C. down to $1,000 below the Canadian average per

student funding, and is presently spending megabucks on lawyers trying to prove it can change the Canadian Charter of Rights on a whim.

Voters are about to make choices about future trustees and signs, promises and confusion are rampant.

A Remembrance Day wind storm that blasted southwestern B.C. left thousands of Maple Ridge families in the dark, and at least one family without a home.

Paul and Micheline Surridge were looking out their window on Tuesday, watching trees be battered by the wind, and wondering if any might be a threat to blow down.

Paul looked at one sturdy cottonwood, and remarked that it should certainly be able to stay upright.

“Five minutes later, that tree was on our house – it was so surreal,” said Micheline.

“I heard a big ‘crack’ and the whole place shook. The neighbours even heard it,” she said.

Their house at 249th Street, just south of 119th Avenue, was seriously damaged by the tree, to the point that power can’t be on, and they can’t stay there. They may be out of their place for months.

Colleen Flanagan/THE NEWS

Wind toppled a tree onto Micheline Surridge’s roof.

She estimated the cottonwood was 100 feet tall, and noted that it knocked over two other trees as it fell.

The first-time home owners have only lived in the 1,200 square foot rancher for about five months. Fortunately, nobody was hurt in the incident.

She noted that the tree was healthy, but it appears a stream may have undercut its roots.

The storm left 43,000 customers in the Lower Mainland and Southern Vancouver Island without power.

In Maple Ridge, at the peak of the storm, there were 9,000 B.C. Hydro customers without pow-

er between 1-3 p.m.

Hydro spokesperson Simi Heer noted that there were seven larger circuit outages in Maple Ridge, and numerous “local” outages, which affected a smaller number of customers. Most were caused by trees being down on lines.

The utility company had 11 crews, both Hydro and contractors, dealing with the issues.

They got their first call at 8:30 a.m., and were kept running for 16 hours.

Firefighters were also busy.

Assistant fire chief Michael Van Dop noted the department had 59 calls in a 24-hour period – when eight would consti-

tute a normal work load.

“We had all three fire halls going, and all hands on deck,” said Van Dop. He said 31 of those calls were for downed electrical wires, three for Hydro pole fires, five medical calls, and one was rescuing a person from an elevator that stopped between floors during a power outage. Firefighters were forced to close several roads while they dealt with downed wires.

“Storm season has been pretty intense already,” noted Heer, but said Tuesday’s events don’t compare to a 2006 storm that put 250,000 customers around the province in the dark.

Micheline Surridge is worried about the next big storm, and the trees around her property.

There is one high tree in particular that could destroy the house, she said.

With the city’s tree removal bylaw, she will ask municipal officials to visit her lot, and determine whether they can remove the trees.

“I’ll be terrified if there’s another wind storm.”

Garibaldi secondary had the most classes over 30 students with 16, while Pitt Meadows secondary had 14, Samuel Robertson Technical, nine, Maple Ridge secondary, eight, Westview, four, and Thomas Haney, two.

Serra said the dual track system at Pitt Meadows can create timetable issues, with some classes small and others too large.

“This district loves to laud how many innovative choice programs they have for kids, and that’s wonderful, but the more choice you give kids, the more kids will spread themselves out,

meaning you’re not always able to maximize 27-28 kids per class,” said Serra.

“Choice is wonderful if you have the money to run choice programs.”

Class size averages are also up across the district, due to budget cuts that have eliminated teaching positions.

Average class sizes in Kindergarten went from 19.3 to 20.1 students; Grades, 1-3 from 21.5 to 22; Grades 4-7, from 26 to 26.5; and Grades 8-12, from 22.1 to 22.3.

Teachers are compensated for each additional student in their class over 30.

There is a formula

based on last year’s average teacher salary and other variables.

Last year it worked out to $33.23 per student over 30 per month.

School board chair Mike Murray said people should not be fooled by an artificially low number at the Grade 8-12 level, because it includes special needs classes that can be as low as 12 students, and teacher prep time is included in the calculations – which is one block in eight.

Considering prep time, and removing these smaller classes from the average, the average class size is actually about 27 stu-

dents, he said.

“What would it [class size average] have been, but for teachers achieving what they achieved in negotiations,” remarked Murray. “What we’re seeing is movement in the wrong direction.”

Acting superintendent Laurie Meston offered three reasons for the increase in crowded classrooms: the challenge of timetabling students during job action; staffing classes at secondary schools by full-time equivalents rather than by head count; and the addition of staffing after the timetables were already implemented.

Serra said the situation underlines the need for hard class size caps guaranteed in contract language – as there is at the elementary level.

“Elementary numbers have always been maintained because there are hard limits they have to follow.

So they know they can’t go over,” he said.

“Without hard limits, what choice do they [school administrators] have?”

They have no choice but to increase the size – that’s why we have to get our class-size language back. That’s the only guarantee.”

Election signs unsightly in Pitt Candidates want more restrictions

By Nei l Corbe tt ncorbett@mapleridgenews.com

Residents are fed up with election signs sprouting like weeds on every patch of green space in Pitt Meadows, and politicians agree that they have to be reigned in.

“It is worse than I’ve ever seen it,” said Coun. Gwen O’Connell. “I hate them.”

“I hear lots of complaints that they keep breeding.”

She and Coun. Janice Elkerton have been involved in local politics since 1993.

O’Connell said council should look at limiting the number of signs, restrict them to designated areas, or even consider eliminating them altogether.

Elkerton said it is seen as a pivotal election. With Mayor Deb Walters stepping down, and Coun. Doug Bing elected MLA, there are two seats at the table which are open.

“There are a lot more signs, and it’s all sides,” said Elkerton. “It has almost become environmental pollution.

“But I understand the need for new people to get their names out.”

She would support a limit on the

One councillor believes there are more elections signs in Pitt Meadows this time because there are two open seats. number of signs a candidate can post, and limit them to private properties.

“Get out door knocking – that’s still the most effective,” suggested Elkerton.

Candidate Bill Dingwall brought the issue to council this week, saying the bylaw needs to be tightened.

“Make it much more restrictive,” Dingwall said of the city election sign bylaw. “It is really unsightly.”

He would like to see the bylaw changed to allow election signs no sooner than two weeks before the election “If I’m elected, that’ll be one of

the first things I bring forward.”

Council candidate Mike Stark also agreed the signs are unsightly, and would support some limits.

“There are no limits, and this year is ridiculous. It’s totally a sign war.”

Mayoralty candidate John Becker noted that limiting signs would favour incumbents, who already enjoy an advantage over new candidates in terms of name recognition.

He would support that signs be limited to private or business properties, rather than public properties.

“That’s a true measure of support.”

Transportation is a problem in Maple Ridge.

What will you do to change that??

We have to advocate strongly with senior government for viable long-term transit funding. The governance structure of Translink is problematic for Maple Ridge as it gives us little voice. Adding in the bridge toll puts us at severe disadvantage compared to larger cities with greater transit and no tolls. I will advocate for improved West Coast Express service, a direct link to the new Evergreen line and community shuttle improvements with focus on areas with no service.

What about schools?

Municipal government cannot promise new schools – the provincial government funds these. They have indicated Albion in 2018 as the earliest new school site. This is a serious problem for families living in Silver Valley and Albion. Under the Provincial mandate we built an official community plan to ensure complete communities with schools.

We have yet to deliver on that. I will approach the school district to set up a joint working group to see what we can realistically achieve together.

It sounds like you’ve really thought your way through this.

I have. I am a planner by nature. As a successful employer and business owner in the community I know that carefully managing your resources along with welcoming customers and treating them respectfully will ensure success.

If elected how will you communicate with your citizens?

I have maintained social media accounts and a website as open forums since 2008 and will continue to do so. I personally answer my emails and phone and this will not change.

You are invited to attend a Development Information Meeting where representatives from Mussallem Realty Ltd. will present details on Official Community Plan Amendment and Rezoning Application 2014 - 074 - CU

The purpose of the application is to temporarily allow CS-1 (service Commercial) uses within the existing C-3 (Town Centre Commercial) zoned building.

How do you plan to reduce crime?

Police need to deal with crime, not provide health care services. The homeless problem is part of my action plan. First, we will work with RCMP to ensure police services are sufficient and effective. Then, consider expanding the BIA security role in the downtown core. The combination of the these will help to ensure a safe environment for residents and business operators and do so cost effectively.

What makes you the best person for Mayor?

Six years of Council experience. I’m a successful business owner and a 28-year resident with extensive community volunteer experience in Maple Ridge. I’m focused, have strong leadership skills, and understand the need for Council to work as a team. I see the opportunities we must seize and have a realistic plan to deliver much needed change.

Jackson Farm needs to take place in planning lineup Public will be consulted B y Phi l M elnyc h u k pmelnychuk@mapleridgenews.com

It’s going to be a long process but what should emerge is a Jackson Farm park that will draw visitors from beyond Maple Ridge.

Recreation staff told council at the Nov. 3 workshop that the area at 102nd Avenue and Jackson Road must go through the master planning process.

That requires hiring a consultant, who will determine how best to engage the public and getting their feedback on what they want to see for the location.

The City of Maple Ridge acquired the park from developers in 2010 in exchange for allowing subdivision on land kitty corner to the park on 248th

The site’s history will be taken into account.

Street.

At 15 acres, it will be the largest park in the city, with sweeping views of pastoral land, evoking its farming past.

Other existing parks, such as Whonnock Lake Park, Albion Park, and Maple Ridge Fairgrounds, have gone through the same process.

THE NEWS/files

Once a consultant has been chosen, an inventory of the site takes place. That will look at natural features, watercourse, trees and the site’s history.

Feedback from the public will consist of public meetings and surveys and focus groups and include the opinions of stakeholders.

Once opinions have been gathered, guiding statements will be written to guide development followed by the writing of a draft plan.

With a draft plan in place, the public again will have its say before the concept goes to council for approval.

According to staff, Maple Ridge residents love their parks, with 87 per cent using them.

However, money remains an issue for the park.

Funds still haven’t been allocated in the city’s capital program, which allots spending priorities.

Recreation general manager Kelly Swift said Jackson Farm has been added to the park’s master plan because of the strong public interest in the site.

The group Friends of Jackson Farm fought to preserve it from development.

Cheers to 5 Years!

The cost for that wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t come out of general revenues. Instead, money thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s accrued in a reserve fund will pay for the financing charges of that project.

Daykin disagrees with Mowattâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s claim that $2 million can be found in savings through cuts at city hall. To reach that amount of savings would mean cutting services, such as library or leisure service hours, or cutting back on installing ramps on the corners of sidewalks to make it easier for the disabled to get around or not installing crosswalk beepers that makes it easier for

blind people to cross streets. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We could â&#x20AC;&#x201C; not do that.â&#x20AC;?

Daykin said heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be willing to ask staff to do a zero-based budget if an initiative from most on council supported that. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be prepared to have those discussions, if the majority wants.â&#x20AC;?

But the feedback he gets from the public is for more services and more assets to be built.

And that costs money.

He agreed that the cost of providing services and infrastructure in areas that are already built up with some population density is cheaper than doing the same in outlying suburbs. But

both require spending and upgrades and said the new 232nd Street bridge over the North Alouette River leading to Silver Valley would have had to been replaced regardless of whether there were new houses on the mountainside.

Michael Morden, also challenging for the mayorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s chair, says itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s difficult not to increase property taxes each year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Zero tax [increase], I would say that would be difficult to achieve.â&#x20AC;?

But during the springâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s budgeting process, council made three successive cuts to the tax rate before eventually paring it down to 3.47 per cent for 2014, when utility rates and property taxes are combined.

But more fat can be trimmed, he added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not enough in my mind. We have to go further.â&#x20AC;?

Morden, responding to criticism that he supports a tax increase, pointed out that he was

chair of councilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s finance committee and said his job was to help find consensus on the budget. As result, he had to vote on those proposals. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have successfully reduced taxes from the 5.8-per-cent increase, approved by previous councils for the past decade, down to just three per cent.

This is a good start.

But there isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t much room for greater future decreases unless we make bolder decisions to reduce spending,â&#x20AC;?

Morden says on his website.

He also wants to put in performance measurements at city hall to identify any savings and proposes expanding the use of private security in Maple Ridgeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s downtown as a way of saving police costs.

But Morden doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to cut existing RCMP or fire services. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Public safety is very important.â&#x20AC;?

Neither budget can be cut, he says.

Who is Todd Oliver?

Dear Citizens of Maple Ridge, This is a pivotal year for change in our community. Your vote does defy change. I have no connection with developers, nor do I have â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;friends at city hallâ&#x20AC;?. As your elected official, a taxpayer and working class citizen like you, I am ready to tackle all chronic, current and future issues with an open mind that will put your voice first.

City hall is long overdue for a restructure. As we struggle with limited tax revenue and the high cost of civic business, change needs to start at the top. It is time to get back to the basics as there is only one employer and that is the taxpayer. City hall must get smaller and more efficient, but still deliver higher quality services. Being a civic â&#x20AC;&#x153;cheapskateâ&#x20AC;? is not a bad thing. Business as usual is no longer acceptable, nor is it sustainable. After all, it is OUR money!

As your elected official, I will: â&#x20AC;˘ Initiate a Core Service Review that will examine city hallsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; programs and services to help control expenditures, cut taxes, and enhance revenue. â&#x20AC;˘ Get tough on crime by implementing a Crime Action Plan that will involve multiple levels of agencies and possibly additional municipalities working together. Everyone has the right to feel safe in their own home and community. It is

time for us, as a community, to start pushing back. Enough is enough! â&#x20AC;˘ Review and update our outdated Bylaws to reflect the dynamic needs of our community. â&#x20AC;˘ Encourage council to review monthly department budgets and hold every department manager accountable. â&#x20AC;˘ Maximize shared services through partnering

with neighboring communities. â&#x20AC;˘ Aggressively sell this city as a destination for business and leisure to help balance our residential and commercial tax base â&#x20AC;˘ Encourage Council to review a private contract Garbage Service initiative for Maple Ridge residents that is cost effective and environmentally friendly.

Integrity, accountability and doing what is right are the staples of my well-being. Curiosity and challenge is what drives me. As your elected official, I will constantly strive to exceed your expectations and give you value for your tax dollar. I will work hard for OUR money; I will work hard for OUR community.

Emissions still going up T cut down emissions from automobiles.

Since the source of 57 per cent of our community emissions is onroad transportation, it makes a lot of sense to look for ways to achieve reductions there.

Masse suggested to look at amending Cycling the adopted Jackie Chow target in the future, and the Transportation Plan was subsequently endorsed.

Can kicked further down the road.

In 2007, with the adoption of the District’s Sustainability Action Plan, the development of a community energy plan was recommended.

This was officially added to our OCP as a “will explore” item. Now, seven years later, despite stronger calls for action from the scientific community, as well as common folks around the world, and the alarming report just released by the IPCC, we still don’t have a plan.

According to Laura Benson, manager of sustainability and corporate planning with the city, despite not having a CEP, Maple Ridge has worked on things like densification in the town core near transit and services, attracting high value local jobs and installing EV charging stations, which should definitely help.

But when it comes to planning for a truly multi-modal transportation network that will help convince more of us to choose alternative modes, safely – which will lead to lower emissions – the present Transportation Plan lacks vision, and council clearly lacks a sense of urgency.

in corporate and community emissions from 2007 levels by 2020.

At the time, council felt we were doing pretty good already and little further action was required; all the policies that were already in place at the time were thought to help us achieve the target.

Maple Ridge’s website shows a reduction of three per cent by 2010.

I doubt that our emissions would have gone down when our population increased by about five per cent, or almost 4,000 people during that time.

Unless these and more people, perhaps, all found local jobs, drove EVs, walked or biked to work, school and shopping, and moved into empty basements in existing homes.

When council discussed the 20-year Transportation Plan at the council meeting on Oct. 28, Coun. Bob Masse wanted to do more through a wellthought out Transportation Plan, which would

he Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has recently published its fifth report, which sends a dire warning to the world.

We’re on track to severely and irreversibly impact the global climate and the natural world around us, endangering survival of many plant and animal species, including ourselves.

We’re already seeing more heat waves, droughts, more severe rainfall and floodings.

The report further warns that food security is at risk, and we’ll likely see more wars as a consequence of poverty and economic shock.

Developing countries are most vulnerable to climate change, while developed and wealthier countries such as Canada are among the worst carbon emitters; we don’t have a particularly good reputation in the rest of the world when it comes to doing our share to reduce emissions.

Not only in Canada, but also world-wide, emissions are still going up.

“Leaders have to act now. Time is not on our side,” said UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon.

On the positive side, the report, which has been contributed to by thousands of scientists, states that it’s economically affordable to take action.

Unfortunately, both at the federal and the provincial level, the powers that be are singlemindedly focused on exploiting the tar sands in Alberta and LNG in B.C., with little regard for the resulting rise in emissions and other environmentally damaging consequences.

Shouldn’t we, instead of just ramping up production of nonrenewables, focus our efforts on rapidly expanding alternative energy sources, while aiming to gradually phase out the use of fossil fuels where possible?

What’s happening at the local level?

In 2010, all members of the previous council in Maple Ridge, five of which are still representing our interests now, unanimously and ambitiously endorsed a target of 33 percent reduction

drive. It needs to be treated with respect but getting on the power or the brakes is very smooth and effortless.

The sound from the screaming engine, the Pirelli P-Zero tires squealing under acceleration or diving into each corner was a sensory overload. After dozens of laps around the track with a top speed of 230km/h down the straight, this car is nothing short of amazing. Everything else just feels slow.

Verdict The average buyer will still opt for the ($32,495) V6equipped cars sold with a solid 300 hp going to the rear wheels or all wheels, the V8-equipped cars are not offered with AWD any longer. The most amazing, but unspectacular part of the trip was driving the Hellcat back to Washington, D.C. through heavy traffic on the highway and downtown core.

As we pulled up the W Hotel, just a block from the Whitehouse, the 707 hp Hellcat returned 9.9L/100km.

Nothing short of amazing considering the cars output, but it might come down to the 411 lb.-ft. the engine puts out at just 1,200 rpm, allowing it to loaf along effortlessly. This and the $64,495 price tag will get a lot of car fans sitting up and paying attention; the world’s fastest four-door family car is an amazing engineering marvel and the price is as jaw-dropping as the car itself.

is not the correct way to wire them. Most off-road lights draw a lot of power when switching them on, and this load should never be applied directly to the switch. Using a relay for the switching duties will save your switch and lights as well as make for a safer installation.

Relays are easy to install and some lights come with them, but if not, you can pick up a relay from your local auto parts store.

Install a switch in the cab of your truck in a location that is convenient for you to reach, or tap into the high-beam circuit of the headlights to power the relay. Mount the relay inside the cab, under the dash or other location out of the way and out of the elements.

Run a wire from the battery or other positive source to the switch. This is the positive feed to switch the relay on. You will also need to run a ground wire to the switch from the frame or other ground then run a positive feed wire from the battery to the positive in position on the relay.

There will be four connectors on the relay, a positive, a negative, a positive out and a positive in from the battery. Read the packaging or directions to determine which is which.

Find the ground position on the relay and run a wire from it to a good ground on the chassis of the vehicle. Anywhere on the frame or other metal structure of the vehicle will normally produce a decent ground.

Run a section of wire from the switch output to the switched power input on the relay. Again, this will

be marked or identified on the directions that came with your relay. Run the last wire from the relay positive out position to the lights and connect it to the positive feed on the lights. Ground the lights by attaching the black or ground wire to the frame or other ground on the truck.

HID lights have become more popular with off-roaders these days.

Installation is a little more work. But the principles remain the same. Be sure to follow the instructions provided in the kit. HID stands for High intensity discharge which refers to a new technology that relies on an electrical charge to light the xenon gas contained in a sealed bulb.

Unlike the halogen bulb, the HID bulb does not have a filament, because there is no filament the bulbs are not susceptible to vehicle vibration damaged. There are however effected by and fluctuations in the vehicles electrical system and depending on the vehicle they may require some resistors.

The HID bulb creates light by bridging an arc between two electrodes, instead of heating a filament. This light is similar to the energy transfer when lightning strikes. The arc stimulates the xenon gases producing bright white beam of light.

The next wave of off-road lighting technology is LED. Rigid is a leader in this technology. Low amperage and superior light projecting forward is why most off-road racers are switch to this type of light. ian.harwood@ drivewaybc.ca

A suspension upgrade also gives CSX better handling than a Civic. warranty than Honda. Full coverage is for four years or 80,000 km, compared to three years/60,000 km from Honda.

You won’t find ratings for an Acura CSX in Consumer Reports or the results of any U.S. crash testing. However, it’s safe to assume that it would achieve similar results to the Honda Civic, which does spectacularly well in owner survey ratings and also receives top ratings occupant protection in a collision.

Used prices may be on the high side, but if you like the Honda Civic, yet desire a little extra pampering and performance, take a look and a drive in used Acura CSX. Price Check, 2006 - 2011, Acura CSX: • 2006, Premium, $9,000 to

$12,000; • 2007, Type S, $10,000 to $13,000; • 2008, Type S, $11,000 to $14,000; • 2009, Type S, $12,000 to $15,000; • 2010, Type S, $14,000 to $17,000; • 2011, i-Tech, $16,000 to $19,000.

Prices vary depending on a used vehicle’s condition, mileage, usage and history.

A complete mechanical check should always be performed by a reliable auto technician prior to purchase.

Safety Recalls 2006 to 2011, Acura CSX: • 2006/2007 – an ABS wheel speed sensor O-ring seal may allow water to enter the rear wheel bearing and eventually cause damage, especially in areas where use of road salt is prevalent. Dealers

will inspect and, if required, replace ABS sensor O-ring seals and rear wheel bearings.

• 2009 – a fault in the Electric Power Steering (EPS) system could result in an immediate loss of power steering assist without warning to the driver. The electric power steering module will be replaced under a special extended warranty (coverage of 10 years/240,000 km) for vehicles which experience this condition.

• 2011 – there’s an increased risk of fuel leakage in a roll-over crash due to a potentially faulty Roll-Over Valve (ROV) within the fuel pump module. Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the fuel pump module assembly. bob.mchugh@

he Acura CSX was made in Canada and only sold in Canada.

Essentially, it’s a sportier and more luxurious Honda Civic as it shares most major parts, other than engines.

So, an owner not only gets the renowned reliability, fuel efficiency and functionality of a Civic, but also a higher level of performance and luxury.

First released for the 2006 model year, CSX came with a 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine that can also be found in an Acura RSX, with slightly different tuning. A suspension upgrade also gives CSX better handling than a Civic and it originally came in Touring and Premium (with leather upholstery, Xenon headlights and a power sunroof) trim levels.

A new more performance oriented version called the Type-S replaced Premium for the 2007 model year. The standard 2.0-litre engine can produce 155 horsepower, but the 2.0-litre in a Type-S version can churn-out 197 horsepower. The manual transmission in a base CSX is a five-speed, while the Type-S has a six-speed.

A five-speed automatic transmission was a popular option, An automatic model also comes with steering wheel mounted paddle-shift (manual) controls. Using the newly revised (and more realistic) fuel economy rating method, a CSX (auto) should get 10.9/7.8 L/100 km (city/ highway) and 10.0/7.6 L/100 km (city/highway) with the manual transmission.

Other than leather upholstery, which became standard on every CSX, there were no significant changes for 2008 model year. In 2009, the CSX got a minor face-lift up front and 17-inch wheels, fog lights and USB port for audio players all became standard equipment. The CSX Type-S became the CSX i-Tech (and came with xenon headlights, a navigation system and Bluetooth connectivity) for the 2011 model year, its final year of production.

A used CSX doesn’t cost too much more than a top-line Civic. Not only do you get more content and performance, Acura models also come with a longer

For the love of

Puncture resistant

T

he rush of air escaping a tire is not a sound one hopes to hear deep in the outback.

According to a tire industry study, 84 percent of tire failures incurred off-road are due to sidewall puncture, often rendering tires irreparable.

BF Goodrich has done something about this deflating fact.

High in Canada’s rugged Rocky Mountains is where it chose to launch the revised KO line of all-terrain tires.

Termed “KO2,” the new boots bring forth many improvements to a tire already considered by many in the off-roading community to be the benchmark.

That reputation was earned through a longstanding commitment to off-road racing and motor sports – winning the Baja 1000 more than all other tire manufacturers combined – and its advances in tire technology since introducing the first all-terrain tire back in 1976.

The tire manufacturer claims that the KO2 sidewall is 20 percent stronger than the original KO tire, and incorporates an advanced deflection system designed to prevent protruding objects, such as pointy branches, from snagging and splitting the sidewall.

A handful of crusty auto journalists, more used to testing cars rather than tires, ventured to Lake Lou-

ise in the Rockies to put the tires through a reality test.

BF Goodrich supplied a series of off-road exercises in which we pushed the limits of the KO2s, all of which were 20-inch 55-series tires shod upon new Chevrolet Silverado 4X4 pickups. It’s important to note that these weren’t extra-large off-road tires, they were typical replacements.

The highway portion of our drive delivered a pleasant surprise: the KO2s produced much less road noise than expected given their heavy lug-based tread pattern.

While likely not as quiet as the original-equipment tires on Chevy’s latest Silverado, their whine was modest and unobtrusive.

Forty minutes after departing the majesty of Lake Louise and its aqua-blue waters, we exited Banff National Park and headed for private testing lands.

Moving from tarmac, we encountered just about every conceivable surface one might face during an off-road excursion.

Despite my best effort to burrow the KO2s deep into a mud pit, the putty-like ooze never overwhelmed them. With a little throttle prodding, the tires managed to clear away the earthen oatmeal, finding footing enough to pull 5,500 pounds of truck out of the quagmire with ease. Other testing locales included a rock crawl, steep ascents/ descents, and a log pit with sharp upward-pointing knots. The latter reputed for

inflicting sudden death on typical trail tires.

Sidewalls are vulnerable, and the weakest part of a typical tire. A truck was parked atop a pointy knot.

Despite the pointy knot digging into the sidewall with extreme pressure, the tire never succumbed to the silent killer in the bush.

Our day in the Rockies saw 20 Silverados – in other, words 80 KO2s – performing exercise after exercise with zero failures.

No flats and no stuck trucks.

Property listings, house prices jump

By Kevin Gillies

S

tatistics released this week by the Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver aren’t showing the real story for the Pitt Meadows and Maple Ridge markets, according to one local Realtor.

According to the recently released Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver (REBGV) stats, the number of real estate listings in Pitt Meadows and Maple Ridge jumped more than 56 per cent this past October when compared to the number of listings from October 2013.

During those same periods, the number of sales went down, while the median sale price of detached homes jumped almost nine per cent locally.

The numbers paint a picture of a market with little sales compared to listings.

But Sandra Wyant says the opposite is true and the local market is in the midst of a hot year for 2014 and she cautions against taking the REBGV numbers too seriously when it comes to comparing the number of sales between the two Octobers.

“To give you an on-the-ground example, we listed a property in Maple Ridge, which would typically have sold probably around the $480,000 mark. We had 70 showings in two days with multiple offers and sold the property for $36,000 over list price,” said the Realtor from the ReMax Lifestyles Maple Ridge office.

“So that is an anomaly for the amount that it went for over list, but it is not an anomaly when it comes to anything listed under $500,000 in Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows,” said Wyant, who is also past president of the REBGV. “There is a big pent-up demand because we have more buyers than we have listings. That’s why you get multiple offers,” she explained.

Contributed

Property listings in Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows were up for October, but sales were down.

The REBGV says that the North Fraser region saw 284 property listings in October 2014 compared to 181 in October 2013, an increase of 56.9 per cent.

Despite the increase in listings from the same month a year ago did not, however, translate into a similar jump in sales. In fact, there was a decrease in actual sales for the area over the same two months.

October 2013 saw 185 actual sales compared to October 2014’s 177 sales — a decrease of 4.3 per cent.

But Wyant said those numbers do

not accurately reflect what’s happening this year in the Pitt Meadows and Maple Ridge markets.

“I gleaned something a little bit differently. Yes [this is] over the Octobers, but over the year, sales are decidedly up and listings are decidedly down,” Wyant said.

“From the beginning of the year, our sales are actually up, over this time last year, by 14 per cent for detached houses and 9.7 per cent for the townhomes. The only thing that is lower in sales is the apartment market,” said Wyant.

“And we can feel that out there, as a realtor, every day out there in the trenches. We definitely can feel that, the pent-up demand that is creating all these sales,” she added.

Last month, according to the REBGV statistics, 147 detached homes were listed in the region along with 56 attached homes and 60 apartments. During that same month 112 detached homes were sold, along with 40 attached homes and 33 apartments.

And the median selling price for a detached home in Pitt Meadows and

Maple Ridge rose from $480,000 in October 2013 to $522,500 in October 2014.

“We’ve seen strong and consistent demand from home buyers in Metro Vancouver throughout this year. This has led to steady increases in home prices of between four and eight per cent depending on the property,” said REBGV president Ray Harris.

“Detached homes continue to increase in price more than condominium and townhome properties. This is largely a function of supply and demand as the supply of condominium and townhome properties are more abundant than detached homes in our region,” Harris said.

The REBGV monthly statistics also show that the Pitt MeadowsMaple Ridge region is one of the top municipal regions for sales during the same time period, only topped

by Burnaby, Coquitlam, North Vancouver, Richmond, Vancouver East and Vancouver West.

Other areas covered by Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver include: Whistler, Sunshine Coast, Squamish, New Westminster, Port Moody, Port Coquitlam, New Westminster and South Delta.

For its entire region, the REBGV reports that home sales in the Metro Vancouver housing market continue to outpace long-term averages for this time of year.

The REBGV says that residential property sales in Greater Vancouver reached 3,057 on the Multiple Listing Service in October 2014, which represents a 14.9 per cent increase compared to the 2,661 sales in October 2013, and a 4.6 per cent increase over the 2,922 sales in September 2014.

Selling your home with Dave and John may mean more money in your pocket when all is said and done. For homes selling under $600,000, our commission rate is a flat fee of $6950 (+ GST). (*) For homes selling over $600,000, our commission structure is 1% of the sale price + $950 (+ GST). Though not all commission rates are the same, this usually equates to thousands of dollars in savings compared to rates charged by many of our competitors (often 7% on 1st $100,000 and 2.5% on balance). We firmly believe that we offer the best value proposition available in the local market today. It’s your hard earned equity - keep more of it!

Alberta Premier Jim Prentice went all in for liquefied natural gas but tiptoed around oil pipelines in his first official visit to B.C. Prentice won a seat in the Alberta legislature last week after taking over the ruling party in the wake of Alison Redford’s sudden resignation, a similar path to power as Premier Christy Clark.

And his first out-ofprovince visit as premier was to Clark’s Vancouver cabinet office Monday.

Asked about getting Alberta’s oil to the B.C. coast, Prentice echoed his days as a environment and industry minister in Stephen Harper’s federal cabinet.

“We talked about the importance of port investments, we talked about the importance of the environmental regime we both want to see off the west coast of Canada, which should be absolutely world class,” he said. “We talked about labour policies and the challenges we both face.

And certainly we talked about the whole range of projects that are being proposed right now.”

Clark also avoided direct mention of oil pipelines, stressing the economic clout of Canada’s

three western provinces to Asian trade. Both she and Prentice moved the topic to LNG, where Prentice vowed his full co-operation.

“Really it comes back to the fact that Alberta and British Columbia working together have the resources and the capacity to reach out into the AsiaPacific Basin to provide what the world wants,” he said.

Prentice’s visit came as lawsuits and protests continued over the Enbridge Northern Gateway pipeline proposed for Alberta to Kitimat, and federal hearings on the expansion of the Trans Mountain pipeline from Alberta to Burnaby and refineries in Washington state.

The average Metro Vancouver household will pay $427 in user fees and taxes to the regional district next year – an extra $5 – as a result of rising utility costs.

The increase was approved by the Metro board recently and the actual household impact varies somewhat by community because of different apportionment of sewage treatment upgrade costs.

The regional district’s

average charge is based on a home assessed at $715,000 and will be added to 2015 property tax bills along with municipal, school and TransLink taxes.

Metro Vancouver’s $659 million operating budget for 2015 is up 0.8 per cent.

About two-thirds of all spending goes to running the drinking water and sewage treatment systems.

Garbage tipping fees will go up $1 to $109 per tonne, but the actual charge to the average household is expected to be flat or slightly lower as a result of increased recycling and less overall disposal of garbage.

God so loved the world he gave Ac t s of Faith by Albert Foster

O

ur country, in the past few weeks, has been traumatized by the deaths of two of our military personnel.

The senseless taking of lives in a world that has lost it senses.

Remembrance Day was well attended and during the service two people read the names of those whose sacrifices have given us the freedom we have today.

During the service,

my mind went back to the one who sacrificed himself so that we have life more abundantly, and more importantly, eternal life.

Let me recite the first line of a verse that we all know, John 3:16: “For God so loved the world he gave ...”

With a simple act of faith we can accept the remainder of the verse that says:“... His only begotten son that whoever believes in Him shall have eternal life”.

We accept the sacrifice of men and women

Extreme weather shelters open Several Metro Vancouver cities have opened up extreme weather shelters for the homeless in response to the arrival of freezing overnight temperatures.

Rebecca Bell, coordinator of the Greater Vancouver Shelter Society, said shelters providing extra overnight spaces were opened this past week in Vancouver, Richmond, Burnaby, New Westminster, Surrey, Langley and Maple Ridge.

“It’s earlier than normal,” she said, but added cold

and thank them for our freedom.

We also need to accept the sacrifice of Jesus Christ and thank him for salvation.

The great thing about Jesus’ sacrifice, he goes on to say in Matthew 11:28: “Come to me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest.”

Are we weary today and tried about the things going on in society?

I know who can solve those problems. He is the master of the wind

and the maker of the rain.

Jesus Christ not only sacrificed his life for our sins, but rose again the third day to walk with us through life.

All it takes is a simple act of faith, by acknowledging our need of Jesus as our Lord and he will acknowledge us and bring us into his family, the family of God.

More than 600 additional spaces can be deployed across the region to meet extra demand during cold weather when local cities issue extreme weather alerts.

Extreme weather sites are often set up in churches or community centres using temporary mats and provide spaces over and above those available in regular homeless shelters.

The extra spaces being offered across the region include 15 in Maple Ridge.

I AM VOTING FOR Chelsa Meadus for Council

For Maple Ridge Council

Off to a winning start with SFU

By Nei l Corbe tt sports@mapleridgenews.com

O

ne of the most dominant athletes ever to graduate from Maple Ridge secondary was back for a visit on Wednesday – and for a workout.

Payten Smith has started her promising collegiate wrestling career with the Simon Fraser University Clan, and after a slow start by her stellar standards, she’s once again hitting her stride.

Smith was unbeatable.

At the national championships in Ontario as a Rambler last spring, she won all four off her matches by pin, without having a point scored against her. No fight took more than a minute.

Then she entered the Greco competition, which is more about throwing than ground fighting, and won that, too.

It was her second straight national title, and Smith won provincial silver medals in grades 8 and 9, then went on to three straight provincial championships.

She also won at the Canada Summer Games.

Her first-ever college match was at Wayland Baptist University in Texas, and she won it by pin in two rounds.

“It felt pretty good. I loved wrestling with my team,” she said. “Dual meets are pretty intense.

You have the whole team

From that single match at the Texas meet, the SFU team next went to Oklahoma, where Smith had a grueling nine matches in two days. It was more wrestling in two days than she had ever done. She suffered two losses – something that hasn’t happened once in three seasons.

“In one, I just got caught – I tried a move that I don’t do very often, and I got pinned,” she said.

“You forget about it,

CANADIAN POWER & SAIL SQUADRONS

and keep moving.”

The freshman is up against women from across the U.S., NCAA competitors, and many have been wrestling for years. Their experience shows. But she thinks the losses will make her better.

“I’m glad it did happen – I know what to improve on.”

In the seven wins in Oklahoma, two went to full time, and she won on points, and the other five were by pin.

“Some of them were really tough matches,” she said. “It’s a different

atmosphere than high school.”

It didn’t take long for Smith to get her high school swagger back.

SFU hosted a meet that she won, and then last week she won at Pacific University, in Forest Grove, Oregon. She took four matches with no points being scored against her. One of her opponents had been a national judo champion.

“I feel like I’ve improved a tremendous amount since Texas,” she said. “The intensity of my wrestling has picked up quite a bit.”

Smith also feels the “flow” of her wrestling has improved. If she tries a move and it doesn’t work, she can efficiently move into something else. Or she can fake a move, and surprise her opponent with a different one.

The health sciences are also going well, and Smith is on her way to becoming a family doctor.

It has only been a few months with her new teammates, but they are fast becoming a closeknit group.

“We’re a family. We see ourselves at our weakest moments and at our strongest moments. It creates bonds.”

SFU will be one of the best wrestling programs in North America, she predicts. Next up is a trip to California, in two weeks.

Going back to her alma mater, Smith wanted to show the Ramblers some throws and turning techniques. “And I’ll definitely give them a workout.”

cyclists like Greg LeMond. Values between 80 and 90 are sometimes achieved by runners and soccer players. Some other notable values are Lance Armstrong and Steve Prefontaine who have published values of 84-85. Some of the highest published values for women are in the 78-80 range for running, cross-country skiing and cycling.

The only reason women’s values are slightly lower than men’s is that men carry more muscle mass per kilogram of body weight, and muscle is the operative tissue involved. Average values for sedentary people are usually in the 20-35 range.

Y

ou may have heard the term VO2 max applied to an athlete’s performance.

What is this measure and how does it apply to athletes? Can you improve it and what are some common values for different groups?

The V stands for volume and the O2 stands for oxygen, so the term is the maximum volume of oxygen that someone can use while exercising at high levels for longer periods. It is essentially a level of one’s overall cardiovascular fitness and ability to maximally process energy. The more oxygen you can use, the more fuel you can burn in order to make the body’s energy molecule, ‘ATP’.

The number is expressed as the millilitres of oxygen used, per kilogram of body weight each minute. The highest recorded values (90-97 ml/kg/min) are usually male crosscountry skiers or racing

It increased the number of contacts with the ball by 24 per cent and improved running economy by seven per cent.

VO2 max is not the only predictor of sport performance.

There are many, many other variables that affect the outcome of races or games including strategy, strength, skill and coordination, stress and psychological states among others. But it is important for most sports and should not be ignored.
