Charges laid in wild police chase STOLEN TRUCK DROVE INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC WHILE PURSUED THROUGH LANGLEY DA N FERGU SO N Tim e s Re po r t e r
A 32-year-old man has been charged with nine criminal offences in connection with a wild two-hour police pursuit that saw a stolen pickup truck driving the wrong way against rush hour traffic on Fraser Highway in Langley. Robert Anthony Pickford appeared in Port Coquitlam Provincial Court on Thursday afternoon, Feb. 19, the day after the driver of an red Ford F150 was dragged out of the truck by police once the chase ended on the Golden Ears Bridge Wednesday afternoon. By then, three of the tires on the truck had been blown out by spike belts deployed by police. The driver had to be taken to hospital by ambulance. The charges against Pickford include multiple counts of theft, breaking and entering and possessing tools for breaking and entering. Pickford’s next court appearance is set for early March. Court records show Pickford has several prior convictions for vehicle theft and dangerous driving, including a 2005 case where he was sentenced to two-and-a-half years for dangerous driving, stealing a vehicle and operating a vehicle “in order to evade a peace officer.” At the time, Provincial Court Judge Shehni Dossa described how Pickford “went through a lot of red lights onto oncoming traffic” during an early morning police pursuit that ended when Pickford hit a light standard. “ … you are fortunate there was so little traffic on the road and that nobody was hurt,” Dossa told Pickford. “You have a long record for someone so young,” Judge Dossa added. At the time, Pickford was on parole from a 2003 conviction for dangerous driving, possession of a stolen auto and drug possession. Continued Page 5

Township begins focusing on projects for 2015 budget PROCESS WILL DECIDE PRIORITIES IN COM ING YEAR D AN F ERGUSO N Ti me s Re po r t e r
“We’re looking forward to a fun-filled day of numbers and figures” a tonguein-cheek Mayor Jack Froese said, as he prepared to open an all-day special Township council meeting on the municipal budget Monday morning. The discussion started with a staff report listing council options presented by Karen Sinclair, the deputy director of finance. To summarize: like most municipalities, much of the money is already spoken for, covering existing programs, funding financial reserves and other costs. There is more than $60 million in new projects and proposals, however, and that is where council will likely be focusing most of its attention. For instance, the staff report suggests putting aside some cash for the future widening of the 208 Street overpass connecting Willoughby and Walnut Grove across Highway 1. It calls for earmarking $1 million this year, and another $5.8 million in each of the next two years.

Mayors’ races costly F R A NK B UCHOLTZ Time s Re po rte r
The 2014 municipal election was one of the costliest in Langley history. Three-way races for mayor in Langley Township and Langley City saw candidates spend just over $182,000. In Langley City, the three candidates for mayor spent $38,840.87. Ted Schaffer handily won election as mayor after serving as acting mayor for about 18 months. He spent $30,175.32 on his campaign. Challenger Randy Caine spent $4,870.42 and challenger Ray Lewis spent $3,435.13. In Langley Township, incumbent Jack Froese spent just under $100,000 — $99,690.82. Former mayor Rick Green spent $44,025 to challenge Froese, while Serena Oh reported spending nothing on her campaign. The Times will publish details about spending and campaign contributors, as well as details about spending by candidates for council and the board of education, in Thursday’s edition. There was significant third-party spending in Langley Township. The Langley Township Unelection Campaign, which targeted five incumbents for defeat, spent a total of $8,689.06, although more than half of that was listed as in-kind donations. Three of the incumbents it had targeted for defeat, councillors Bev Dornan, Steve Ferguson and Grant Ward, lost their seats. The campaign raised a total of $4,250 in cash from nine donors. Stan Scheves donated $2,000, with Unelection organizers Andy Schildhorn and Lee Lockwood each donating $500 through their businesses. Nancy Jeakins was the next largest donor, giving $300. The campaign reported in-kind donations from Peter Holt, $2,875 for moderating an all-candidates meeting; Ian Cameron, $3,160 for web development and services; Eventstar Services, $1,075 for public address services for the candidates meeting; Far West Printing, $265 for business cards and Harold Whittell, $138 for telephones. Langley Township Firefighters, local 4550 of the International Association of Fire Fighters, spent $7,201.93 on the campaign, with it all coming from union funds. It was spent on newspaper and other advertising, $2,635.76; signs, $2,528.98 and brochures, $2,037.19. The local endorsed Froese and eight candidates for council, all but one of whom won.

Friends and co-workers of Marianna Juhasz are organizing a pub night fundraiser for Sunday, March 1 to lift the Abbotsford woman’s spirits. She and her two sons sought sanctuary in a Langley church more than two months ago. A burger and beer night at Townhall Public House in Abbotsford will be held from 5 to 9 p.m. Tickets are $25. Friends who wrote some information about the Juhasz family’s situation for the fundraiser said Marianna “is the personification of what it is to be Canadian: friendly, hard working, honest and kind.” Marianna maintained three jobs, including working in the food court at Sevenoaks Mall in Abbotsford. Her boys, Patrik, 16, and Tamas, 12, embraced their new life in Canada, taking up sports and making friends until a decision by Immi-
gration Canada came down. The government ordered them deported back to Hungary. It was 2010 when Marianna fled with her sons to Canada to escape the violence her youngest son Tamas was experiencing with his father there. Marianna was estranged from Tamas’ father and claims she suffered abuse too. He had visitation rights with Tamas. The three came to Canada on humanitarian grounds. But a judge wasn’t presented the proper documentation to find any abuse took place. Immigration Canada ordered the family be deported in November 2014. They decided to hide, looking for sanctuary in any Abbotsford church. They found it at Walnut Grove Lutheran Church, where Langley’s Jose Figueroa has been living for a year and a half. The Juhasz’ are waiting to hear if they will be granted

“We had our consultant look at it and we believe we can do a partial replacement for under $19 million,” said Green. But costs to build a high school in Willoughby are much higher. Green estimates it will be around $70 million to build a new school, which includes the cost of purchasing 10 acres of land. “The cost of land in Willoughby is expensive,” he added. The district has several sites under consideration, should the ministry come to the table with at least half the funds. The district believes it could fund up to $35 million of the cost. Selling off unused school sites is still being looked at. Letters have gone home to families in the LSS and Willoughby neighbourhoods, letting them know there is no known timeline yet, but the district will communicate with them as

Secretary-treasurer David Green estimates it would cost less than $19 million to do a partial replacement of the aging Langley Secondary School while the cost to build a new high school in Willoughby would be around $70 million. soon as it knows more. In the letter, superintendent Suzanne
Hoffman indicated that for Willoughby students there will
need to be some interim measures “in order to best accommodate students in Willoughby schools.” This information will be forthcoming, she wrote. “We are going to have to have a conversation on how to accommodate middle school students,” said Green. Yorkson Middle School, which opened in September, is expected to be over capacity soon. Mountain Secondary already has 16 portables. RC Garnett Elementary is now a K-5 school, but it has portables too. In last week’s budget, the provincial government announced funding to build or rebuild five schools, the nearest being Clayton North high school in Surrey, not far from Willoughby. There was no mention of funding for Langley. “All of those high schools had been approved by the government years ago, it’s just now that the funding is coming through,” said Green.

Langley Board of Education made the correct decision for the school community, in voting to keep a downsized Langley Secondary School open. The 5-2 vote on Feb. 17 went against an administration recommendation to close the school. Students, teachers and parents all made good cases as to why the school should stay open. Among the points they made was the need for minimal disruption to students; the expense of renovations to other schools if LSS was closed; and the strides LSS has made in serving a wide variety of students. However, with the board decision comes some significant challenges. There is a pressing need for another secondary school in Willoughby, and the province wants the school district to contribute a significant sum of local capital to the project. If LSS was closed, $20 million that has been allotted for seismic upgrades could be used as capital for the Willoughby project. Now it will not be available, as it will need to be used at LSS. There will also be some disruptions at LSS in the future, as it is likely a significant portion of the school will be torn down, and other areas renovated, to deal with seismic issues. Perhaps most importantly, how will the provincial government react to the trustees’ decision? As shown by its recent decision to require school districts to significantly cut administration costs, the province is keeping a very close eye on how districts spend money. Will the province demand that the school district sell off unused sites, and perhaps pressure it into closing more schools and selling those sites, to find enough funds to put towards the Willoughby project? Or will it simply not approve a Willoughby high school until a significant sum of capital has accumulated? If that is the case, R.E. Mountain Secondary may continue to be hopelessly overcrowded for many years to come.

No more borrowing for “groceries.” At least that is what Finance Minister Mike de Jong said when explaining B.C. budget surpluses this year and in the coming years will largely be used to pay down the provincial operating debt. Unless you are an already struggling family, according to the official opposition, British Columbians will face more fee and rate hikes in 2015, according to a press release issued by the NDP. Christy Clark’s Liberal government announced a balanced budget last Tuesday. Flat wages and increasing costs might have some families scraping for money to feed their families. That means there is little in the budget to help sectors like education, which is falling farther behind every budget and having to direct more money away from educating students to paying the costs of just being able to keep school doors open. Jim Iker, president of the BC Teachers Federation, points out that while the budget does include some additional funding to meet the costs of the new collective agreement settled with teachers last year, much of the money is simply being moved around by forcing cuts onto school districts in other areas. In addition, the government is increasing the Medical Services Plan premiums by four per cent, not covering inflation, and refusing to pay for the new MyEducationBC computer program, all of which will download more unfunded costs to school boards. In a time of ongoing economic uncertainty on the global stage, a free-spending budget would be a mistake. And fiscal discipline, coupled with initiatives to help challenges facing business should be applauded. But if B.C.’s economic outlook is as stable as de Jong predicts, with surpluses of more than $250 million over the next three years, perhaps it is time to start reinvesting in some of those soft costs, like education and social services, which may not show immediate benefits, but have a huge payoff down the road. — Campbell River Mirror

A lack of belief Editor: I cannot sit idly by while a “belief system” gets completely misrepresented in The Times’ opinion section. The response from James Paulgaard (The Times, Feb. 17) brings into the debate a completely debunked point of ‘atheistic governments’ committing atrocities, when those governments are wedded to no religion. I must clarify this point, although it digresses from Robert Rock’s original letter (The Times, Feb. 12). Atheism is simply a lack of belief. Totalitarian regimes like the USSR and Cambodia of the 20th century simply replaced religion with leader worship. They still included faith in the dear leader and an unquestioning attitude towards their governments. A little critical thinking and a good look at their policies and practices clears this right up. Until a society or country decides to raise their young for generations with an enlightenment attitude among the works of great thinkers like Spinoza, Einstein, Thomas Paine, Bertrand Russell, Phillip Larkin, Richard Dawkins, and Christopher Hitchens, just to name a few, you cannot even know how a true atheistic society would be put into practice. When you have rational thought and reasonable thinking combined with literature, science, philosophy and critical thinking put into place, you might have a good start. Even then, atheism is simply a lack of belief. Stalin and Hitler both had moustaches, but this doesn’t mean than moustaches caused the genocide of millions of innocents. This gets away from the debate of what right and influence does a private university have over its students’ sexual preferences and conduct? I for one am in favour of human rights for all. That being said, I don’t believe a private university should be forced to hold views contrary to their belief doctrine. While I am conflicted, in the end I do believe in basic human rights trumping discrimination. I respect a person’s right to believe in whatever religion they happen to practise, just so long as it doesn’t hurt others. ZAK GRAHAM, LANGLEY
Many who helped Editor: I would like to make a small correction to the article “Century-old carriage house restored in Fort Langley,” (The Times, Feb. 19). The owner of the carriage house and the property it sits on is Carlill, Carbolic Smokeball Corporation. It is a company incorporated in 1978, with 17 shareholders. While Dale LaVerne and Margot McKenzie are shareholders in CCS Corporation, there are also 15 other shareholders, many of whom have worked hard with fundraising, planning and organizing the exterior restoration of the Hope Carriage House. It has truly been a co-operative effort. Thanks should also be extended to the Township of Langley and the Langley Heritage Society, as well as Landstone Homes and Centra Windows. With the care and respect the old building is now receiving, we hope it will be still standing 100 years from now as a reminder of the history of Fort Langley. MARGOT MCKENZIE, LANGLEY

Increasing traffic congestion is predicted by the ‘yes’ side if Metro Vancouver residents vote ‘no’ to the proposed sales tax increase in the coming transportation referendum, but two Times letter writers are not convinced by that argument. They plan to vote ‘no.’
Many good reasons to vote ‘no’ Editor: I am voting ‘no’ in the transit plebiscite, because of the process involved. The cowardly provincial government is hiding behind TransLink and the mayors to tax us more. The provincial government has the power to increase our taxes without asking us, as they are presently doing via ICBC, B.C. Medical Plan and BC Hydro. Why not with transportation? If we, the taxpayers, give them the satisfaction of asking the government to tax us more, what will keep them from increasing that tax to one or two per cent? The “powers that be” think we, the taxpayers have to be “educated” in order to vote ‘yes.’
It appears to be more of a selling job for them. We know exactly what is at stake. It is futile for us to shovel more money at the wasteful bureaucracy of TransLink. Then there is the sheer hypocrisy of the ‘yes’ side’s cheerleaders. Immediately after the launch of their campaign, Vancouver Mayor Gregor Robertson is asking for a raise in his $154,000 salary and Surrey Mayor Linda Hepner quietly funds the court costs of one of her councilors, on what is a private matter. All of these funds come from the same taxpayer. Enough is enough. Vote ‘no’ to any increased taxes. ED WIENS, LANGLEY
Editor: I counted at least 20 forms of taxes that we pay to drive our cars to work. At that, I may be missing some. I would be happy to publish them but I am afraid that if this post is too long, people won’t bother reading it. This excludes the mayors’ newest proposal of an increase in the sales tax. Can you imagine the bureaucracy tied in with all these taxes? If they would roll it up as one tax, they could probably get rid of some of them and still make money, but these bureaucrats are killing us one drop at a time or through a thousand paper cuts. Is it the mayors’ intention to bankrupt us all? I heard on the news that Canadians are falling into record debt. Is it any wonder? I would support expansion of transportation infrastructure, but this fight is not about being in favour of such expansion. It’s about who should pay for it and about the inept management of our money.
Governments are not good money managers and voting ‘no’ will tell them to give their heads a shake. Don’t you dare believe that it will mean more congestion. No government will allow things to deteriorate to what the fear mongers are telling people, since they face the voters every four years or so. Who should pay for improvements? How about the community of millionaires who rub their hands in glee when SkyTrain comes to their doorsteps? This would be the developers, speculators, property flippers, land owners, leasing companies and the real estate agents that profit from transactions immediately around the stations. Has anyone noticed all the mega projects that currently surround these stations and the ones that are under development? Someone is making big bucks, and the mayors want you to contribute to their welfare fund? NICK SANGER, MAPLE RIDGE

Djiba Camara, a popular teacher at H.D. Stafford Middle School, is again trying to get a container of needed items to the country where he was born, Guinea in West Africa. It has been rocked by the Ebola outbreak and many people are very poor and desperate. He spoke to students at his school about his plans on Feb. 11.
Teacher wants to help people in Guinea with container of goods MONIQUE TAMMINGA Tim es Reporter
Be sure to check out Special guests!
H.D. Stafford Middle School teacher Djiba Camara is loved by students for his joking and fun nature. But when he spoke to them at an assembly on Wednesday, Feb. 11, the PE teacher was speaking to them about something very serious. Camara was asking students for donations and support to help the country of his birth, Guinea, West Africa, which is in dire and desperate shape. The Ebola outbreak has hit the already badly-impoverished country hard. “Currently, the suffering is great. Out of caution, markets, stores, schools and most public events have been closed or cancelled. People are afraid to even greet their neighbours for fear of contracting the disease. The impact has been devastating on every level of society,� said Camara. Camara said seeing the current suffering of his people has “driven me even more to do something.� Camara wants to ship a second container of supplies to Guinea by June. The container
would arrive by August. He hopes to get to Africa himself by the end of the year to make sure all the supplies got to the right people and to check on his family. “They are suffering, they don’t have food and everybody is scared of each other,� Camara said, relating what he has heard from his family there. Once a professional soccer player, and former coach of the women’s Whitecaps team, as well as a certified FIFA coach, Camara has lived a very successful life here and in Europe. But the suffering and the starvation in his home country is driving him to give back. In 2013, Camara made his first plea to the Langley community to help donate supplies, like sporting equipment, bikes, clothing and computers to be put in a container and shipped to his home country. The community came through, also providing cash donations. Camara was able to send and meet the shipping container in Conakry, the capital city of Guinea, that summer. But when he got there, he saw the need was much greater than what just one container
could provide. He came home more motivated than ever to have more supplies shipped there. But he was diagnosed with cancer shortly afterwards, forcing him to sideline his efforts to deal with his diagnosis. Three surgeries later, he has been given the good news from his doctors that he is now cancer-free. “Now, I can concentrate all my efforts into helping my people,� he said. Camara is hoping for donations of tools, construction supplies, sporting equipment, computers, gas generators and even a pickup truck. He is also looking for financial donations to pay for the cost of shipping the container, which comes to $10,500. Donations can be brought to Stafford and can be picked up by Camara if need be. Administrators at Stafford and students are already supporting their teacher’s goals. “Stafford strives to be global citizens by giving back to the community at home and abroad,� is a motto of the school. Camara can be reached a dcamara@sd35.b.c.ca or call him at 778-836-4625.

An information session on the upcoming Metro Vancouver transportation and transit plebiscite is planned for Wednesday, March 4 in Langley. On March 16, Elections BC will start mailing out ballots for the plebiscite. It is asking voters to approve an increase in the provincial sales tax of 0.5 per cent, to be put towards a number of specific transit and transportation projects.
What does it mean in Langley if the majority of people vote ‘yes?’ What does it mean if people vote ‘no?’ What does it mean for individuals and families? The session will provide details on the mayors’ plan for improving transportation in Langley, the South of Fraser region, and the rest of Metro Vancouver. This will be one of the few opportunities to learn about the
plebiscite in Langley, in a casual and accessible atmosphere. The event takes place in the auditorium of Kwantlen Polytechnic University’s Langley campus, at 20901 Langley Bypass. Doors will open at 6:30 p.m., with the presentation starting at 7 p.m. It will be followed by questions and answers until 9 p.m. Further information is available at www.southfraser.net.

Non Emergency Pet Transportation New on the British Columbia business scene is a franchise designed to help pet owners get their pets to the vet, to the groomer or to any other destination. Pets to Vets started in June 2014 and is owned and operated by Janis Beaumont. She saw the need for non emergency pet transportation and as an avid pet owner stepped in to fill that need. She knew many seniors didn't have a car and found it impossible to take their pet to the vet or to the groomers. "Family and friends are usually open to giving a person a ride but when it comes to transporting the family dog or cat, many people are quite apprehensive," said Janis. Pets to Vets is able to accommodate large and small dogs, cats and even caged birds. Janis has large and small cages and has a hammock so the pets can relax and be safe while being transported. Pets to Vets offers service in Langley, Surrey and White Rock. Team members are pet owner themselves and each is certified in Dog Safe® Canine First Aid. In addition to your pet, Pets to Vets will pick up pet food, pet equipment and prescriptions. The company has very reasonable rates and senior’s discounts are offered. “The service price will depend on the circumstances” said Janis We accept cash, cheques and E transfers and we also have gift certificates. Pets to Vets is a Franchise and there are many opportunities still available. The company has a total of 21 territories in British Columbia and three have already been sold. There's a booming pet industry in Canada and it's estimated to be worth $8 billion a year. To learn more about the company and its franchise information visit their booth at The Pet Lover Show Feb. 27, 28 & Mar 1. Tradex , Abbotsford or visit www.PetsToVets.ca

m a life free of pain have pursued further education in manual therapy. This means we use our hands to affect joints, muscles and nerves to help people recover. We all have extensive experience in exercise prescription which allows us to give people the tools to get themselves better with as few visits to us as possible.” Everyone on board has pursued areas of special interest to them, he adds. “Three of us are certified Running Injury Specialists. Other specialisations include arthritis, pain during pregnancy, sports injuries, TMJ or jaw pain, whiplash, and concussion management.” From advanced manual therapy, dry needling (IMS) and movement rehabilitation skills, to injury prevention and education, Pure Form Physiotherapy offers a variety of treatment options to help patients achieve maximal function in their work, lifestyle and sporting pursuits. All appointments are “one-to-one,” according to Sivertson, who says their therapists only treat one patient at a time for either 30 or 60 minute appointments. “That way the patient has the therapist’s undivided attention and expertise. We do an extensive assessment based on that particular patient’s concerns.”Treatments at Pure Form Physio are also evidence-based, meaning they are supported by peer-reviewed
research. “Treatment techniques available to us are manual (“hands-on”) therapy, acupuncture or IMS, rehab exercises, the teaching of selftreatment techniques and education,” explained Sivertson. “That last two point sounds strange but our experience and modern research tells us that the more people know about what is causing their pain and the more they can do to help themselves, the more likely that they will be able to get better. Our bodies are not like cars that you can just throw money at and then magically get fixed.” And in terms of the actual facility, all treatments are conducted in clean, private treatment rooms. “We also have free, easy-access parking and the clinic is fully accessible,” he said. In addition to the top-notch client care, the team at Pure Form Physio pride themselves on being community focussed. “We were the physiotherapist for the Junior National Track and Field Championships held here in Langley in 2013 and 2014. We have enjoyed volunteering our time with the breast cancer survivor Dragon Boat club at Fort Langley, local soccer and running clubs, and other groups.” For more information about Pure Form Physiotherapy, visit www.pureformphysio.ca or call 604-510-9900.

Bullying happens when there is an imbalance of power; where someone purposely and repeatedly says or does hurtful things to someone else. Bullying can occur one on one or in a group(s) of people. There are many different forms of bullying:
PRESCHOOL, EARLY LEARNING, DAYCARE AND OUT-OF-SCHOOL CARE Reg ister now for Septem ber 2015
We teach co-operation and have a zero-tolerance policy toward bullying. www.kidsinthegrove.com
604-619-0267
◼ Physical bullying (using your body or objects to cause harm): includes hitting, punching, kicking, spitting or breaking someone else’s belongings. ◼ Verbal bullying (using words to hurt someone): includes name calling, put-downs, threats and teasing. ◼ Social bullying (using your friends and relationships to hurt someone): includes spreading rumours, gossiping, excluding others from a group or making others look foolish or unintelligent. This form of bullying is most common among girls (Canadian Children’s Rights Council).
Cyberbullying Cyberbullying involves the use of communication technologies such as the Internet, social networking sites, websites, email, text messaging and instant messaging to repeatedly intimidate or harass others. Cyberbullying includes: • Sending mean or threatening emails or text/instant messages. • Posting embarrassing photos of someone online. • Creating a website to make fun of others. • Pretending to be someone by using their name. • Tricking someone into revealing personal or embarrassing information and sending it to others. Cyberbullying affects victims in different ways than traditional bullying. It can follow a victim everywhere 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, from school, to the mall and all the way into the comfort of their home - usually safe from traditional forms of bullying.
Impacts Over time, youth who are bullied or bully others find their own ways of dealing with it. While

These include: • Threats - whether done face to face, online, over the phone or through text messaging. • Assaults - including pushing, tripping, slapping, hitting or spitting. • Theft of personal items - like a backpack, books, electronic devices, etc. • Harassment - repeated tormenting online, with
texts, phone calls and/or emails. • Sexual Exploitation - sharing videos or photos with nudity of people under 18. • Hate crime - bullying based on ethnicity, sexual orientation, religious beliefs, etc. For all of these criminal offences, it is important to notify your local police detachment or report it to CYBERTIP.CA. Based on the available information, police will decide if an investigation is warranted and whether charges may be laid.
What You Can Do Youth If you are a victim of bullying • Walk away or leave the online conversation. • Keep track of the bullying (write it down and/or save a screenshot of the online message).

It’s Shrek, The Musical at LSS
It’s time for brass to shine. Trumpets and trombones, tubas and flugelhorns will take centre stage once again as Kwantlen Polytechnic University’s music department presents the fourth annual Brass Blast on Friday, March 6. The annual student concert will feature performances by the Kwantlen Brass Ensemble. They will be joined by the UBC Brass Ensemble and by the professional “tentet” A Touch of Brass on stage at the Langley campus on Friday, March 6. Among the KPU music students participating in this year’s concert are Josh Sung, 20, and Alysha Lebrun, 21, who are in the third and fourth years, respectively, of their degrees. They’re encouraging anyone who has never before been to an all-brass concert to come out and give it a listen. “Everyone has this preconceived notion of a brass ensemble, that all they do is play loud,” said Sung. The trombone player ac-
Consider it a standing invitation to join them in the swamp. Langley Secondary School’s musical theatre students are jumping in with both feet as they present Shrek, The Musical, and bring the story of everyone’s favourite ogre to life on stage. In a faraway kingdom an unlikely hero finds himself on a life-changing journey alongside a wisecracking Donkey and a feisty princess, who turns out to be a far cry from the damsel in distress they’d expected.

knowledged that he learned just how diverse brass instruments are when he took part in a performance of Brahm’s lullaby. “I never knew they could play so softly,” he said. At the same time, the experience will be very different for the audience than listening to a wind symphony, for example, said Lebrun, who plays trumpet. There’s a magnificence to a collection of brass, she said. “It’s a unique sound to hear a whole ensemble (of brass) versus a section.” The evening’s repertoire includes a couple of late Renaissance pieces by Gabrieli, which have been arranged for brass, said Lebrun, referring to Giovani Gabrieli, an Italian
Throw in a short-tempered bad guy, a cookie with an attitude, and many more fairy tale creatures, and you’ve got the kind of mess that calls for a real hero. Luckily, there’s one at hand — and his name is Shrek. Shrek, The Musical features 19 new songs, plus many of the scenes from the movie re-imagined into a longer and more complete story. Part romance, part twisted fairy tale, it is all ogre-sized fun and equally appropriate for children and adults. LSS has been producing annual musicals
composer who lived from the mid16th to early 17th century. “The Gabrielis are fun to play,” she added. “It really shows off our sound.” The band will also perform Legacies of Honour a lively piece with a distinctly military vibe, which includes fanfare and taps. It’s a piece that is more typical of what people think of when it comes to brass instruments, said Lebrun. The concert will conclude with Mass Brass, as the three ensembles take to the stage together, to perform a couple final pieces. At that point, it’s BYOB — Bring Your Own Brass — for audience members (high school band students, for example) who are invited to get up and join in. “For us, it won’t be very rehearsed. It will be simple enough that people can play along,” said Sung. Admission to the fourth annual Brass Blast are $10 per adult and $5 per student. Tickets will be sold at the door. Showtime is 7:30 p.m. KPU is located at 20901 Langley Bypass.

You & The Law
PRESENTS Spousal support and income inequality – a trend arrested? Richard, 56, and Alice, 49, (names changed) were married for 20 years. They had no children. Neither made sacrifices during the marriage, and both were self-sufficient and able to make a clean break when they separated. But Alice was earning significantly more than Richard.
explore other better-paying occupations – so he was under-employed by choice. The court said his annual income should be treated as though it was between $50,000 and $60,000.
Should he get spousal support under the federal Divorce Act just because of their “income disparity”? BC’s appeal court decided this case recently. Richard argued that if roles were reversed and a husband made a lot more than his wife after they broke up, she’d almost routinely get some spousal support. Here, Alice had made a career for herself, getting bachelor’s and master’s degrees and a teaching certificate without Richard’s help. She became a high school principal, worked fulltime, and earned roughly $120,000 when the marriage broke up. Richard was working for CN full-time when they met. He continued with CN after they got married, earning up to $48,000 a year. Then he was injured in a car accident in 2001, so he later began work as a part-time personal trainer. He said he earned less than $10,000 per year when he left Alice in 2011, but wasn’t able to prove what his earnings really were. He was paid mostly in cash and didn’t keep a record of his earnings or file tax returns. Alice found out after the separation that he also had earnings from questionable activities, selling steroids and growth hormones, but Richard told the court he no longer did that. Economists told the court full-time personal trainers without university degrees averaged between $51,000 and $68,000 a year. The court concluded Richard had chosen to work only part-time and not to become certified or
The appeal court noted earlier cases where some spousal support was paid to the “disadvantaged” spouse after a long marriage, when there was substantial income inequality post-breakup. But it emphasized that marriage alone, even if long, doesn’t automatically entitle a spouse with lower income to spousal support. If you’re both self-sufficient and a clean start is possible after separation, the lower-income spouse can’t automatically lay claim to the fruits of their ex’s future labour. They must prove why they should get support – whether due to foregone opportunities, need, lack of means or other relevant factors. Here, Richard couldn’t. Another factor in this case was that, after separating from Alice, Richard started living with another woman who made a base salary of $75,000 to $90,000 plus overtime (close to what Alice earned), and they lived in a condo similar to the one Alice bought post-separation. So the appeal court agreed Richard wasn’t entitled to spousal support. (But it allowed him to keep the $17,500 Alice had paid him earlier in interim support – equivalent to transitional support payments.) Before, courts were inclined to automatically award support when there was a big difference in income between the spouses after they split. By stressing you must first prove you’re entitled to support, this decision may have put the brakes on this trend. Written by Janice and George Mucalov, LL.B.s with contribution by Milne Selkirk.

Quartetto Gelato will perform at LCMS’s Rose Gellert Hall on Saturday, Feb. 28 at 7:30 p.m.
Music to ignite the senses QUARTETTO GELATO’S REPERTOIRE IS QUITE LITERALLY OUT OF THIS WORLD Whoever said there is no sound in space? Not Canadian astronaut Robert Thirsk, who chose the music of Quartetto Gelato to enrich his outer-world star gazing experience. From the great expanse of outer space to performances around the world, Quartetto Gelato will grace the stage at Langley Community Music School’s Rose Gellert Concert Hall later this month. The concert will take take place on Saturday, Feb. 28 at 7:30 p.m. Audiences will be treated to an eclectic performance that surpasses the typical instrumental quartet and transverses the breadth of musical genres. Quartetto Gelato combines the dazzling voice of operatic tenor with the sounds of violin, cello, oboe, and accordion — and a good measure of showmanship — to create a scintillating theatrical performance that captures the spirit, at any age. With a repertoire that spans classical masterworks and operatic arias to the sizzling ener-
gy of tangos, gypsy and folk songs, the group’s dramatic stage presence and relaxed humour engages audiences in a performance that transcends the musical experience. Violinist and vocalist Peter De Sotto joins world accordion champion Alexander Sevastian, oboist (and actor) Colin Maier, and cellist Lydia Munchinsky, to perform works ranging from Edith Piaf’s “La Vie En Rose” to traditional Romanian Caravan. “Audiences of all ages and types pick up on our energy,” said a quartet member. “Recently we played for a video game launch — not our usual soft-seater theatre crowd, but a hall packed with “Generation Y” young men. They told us we were one of the best parts of the entire evening.” Tickets are $30 for adults, $25 for seniors, $20 for students, and $15 for LCMS students. Call the box office at 604-534-2848 or visit langleymusic. com purchase tickets. The Rose Gellert Hall is located inside Langley Community Music School at 4899 207 St.
Bowl for Kids Sake celebrates everyday super heroes ANNUAL BBBS FUNDRAISER IS MARCH 6 AND 7 BR ENDA ANDER SON Tim es reporter
Who’s your hero? For dozens of Langley youth in need of a mentor, it’s the Big Brother or Big Sister who steps up and takes an active interest in their life. On March 6 and 7, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Langley will celebrate its champions and raise funds to help more children in the community find their match, as they present their annual Bowl for Kids Sake fundraiser. This year’s theme is Super He-
roes. Participating team members are invited to come dressed as their favourite super hero (or just make up some new ones) and enjoy a couple of hours of serious fun for a great cause. Bowl For Kids Sake is one of the Langley agency’s main fundraisers of the year, with proceeds raised going to programs that benefit children and teens in the community. Mentors play a vital role in the lives of children and teens who are bullied — as half of all Canadian adults report they were when they were younger.
Each year, Bowl for Kids Sake aims to “strike out” bullying by helping the agency provide one-on-one and in-school youth mentoring programs. BBBS Langley is always in need of Big Brothers, with the waiting list of “Littles” growing steadily. Anyone who would like to enter a team in Bowl for Kids Sake, make a donation or learn more about the programs offered can visit the website at www.bbbslangley.ca.

Capstick sticks close to home — for now GARY AH U J A Ti me s Spo r t s
It has been quite the month for Alec Capstick. In reverse order, Capstick has reached a significant teenage milestone by celebrating his 16th birthday, committed to play next season with the junior A Langley Rivermen, and verbally accepted a full-ride scholarship to play Division 1 hockey with the Notre Dame Fighting Irish. Capstick turned 16 last week (Feb. 18), committed to the Rivermen the day before that, and the week before that (Feb. 11), announced his intentions to join Notre Dame in a couple of years — he still has two full years of high school to complete. “It is nice, now I can focus, get back in the gym,” Capstick said. “That (college decision) is out of my head now and I can focus on improving my game on and off the ice.” Capstick is a puck-moving defenceman, good in both his own zone and in leading the attack. “He has got great offensive instincts,” said Brad Bowen, Capstick’s coach with the Yale Hockey Academy’s U18 Prep team in Abbotsford. Bowen has also coached him with the Vancouver Selects spring hockey program, as well as through summer camps since Capstick was about eight years old. “He jumps into the play extremely well and he can run a power play.” Capstick played bantam rep hockey with the Langley Eagles last year, racking up 21 goals and 62 points in 70 games. He has eight goals and 20 points in 24 games this season with Yale, which plays in the Canadian Sport School Hockey League. Bowen said Capstick — who is five-foot-11 and 160 pounds — struggled a little bit in September as he made the adjustment to playing against older and bigger competition. “Because he is such a smart kid and works extremely hard in practice, it didn’t take him long to get up to speed,” Bowen said. “At times he has been our best

And among those accomplishments was winning the gold medal at a prestigious U16 tournament, the Chicago World Bauer Invite back in November, knocking off the second-ranked team in United States in the finals. The Yale team’s performance at that tournament began garnering attention from NCAA scouts. Capstick is the third member of the Lions to verbally commit.

Saskatoon Blades in last spring’s WHL bantam draft, Capstick had already decided against playing major junior and go the college route instead. “School has always been very
important to me and my family so we thought it would be best to go,” explained the straight-A student. Traditionally, a player will use the BCHL to showcase themselves for college and university scouts. But with that already done, Capstick can instead focus on developing his game and getting stronger. With a handful of BCHL teams interested, Capstick chose the Rivermen. “Just everything about it felt right,” he said, adding he really wanted the chance to play at home in Langley. He is already familiar with the Rivermen having played three games as an affiliate (under-age) player. Capstick was in the lineup last week (Feb. 19) in a 4-3 overtime victory over the Prince George Spruce Kings, registering his first point, an assist. “We are really excited to have him next year,” said Rivermen head coach and general manager Bobby Henderson. “Obviously there was no shortage of teams after him, so it was definitely nice to get him. “He projects to be a real highend defenceman; a very intelligent player.” Both Henderson and Bowen also raved about Capstick’s character off the ice. And from his brief stint in the BCHL, Henderson has been impressed. “Unbelievable poise for (an under-age) player in our league,” the coach said. “He jumped in and played regular shifts and played some special teams. Nothing really phased him, he just looked comfortable out there, which is really impressive.” Capstick and his Yale team are getting ready for the playoffs. After that, he will turn his attention on preparing for his first full junior hockey season, where he will go up against players who may be four years his senior. “He has the college commitment out of they way, which is nice, so he can focus on playing and developing and getting himself ready for the next level,” Henderson said.

Health Matters
You’ve probably heard it before, but consuming “processed” foods has been associated with increased health risks, such as heart disease, diabetes and obesity. A large part of this has been thought to be the added salt in these foods, but current research is suggesting that added sugars may be just as bad a culprit. Since neither is good for you, and since there are often other issues such as low fibre, the bottom line is: Avoid processed foods. Dietary fibre plays an important role in our bodies, playing a role in bowel health, weight and diabetes management, and lowering cholesterol. Now, two large studies are demonstrating that increasing dietary fibre actually improves survival following a heart attack – for every extra 10 grams consumed daily, there was a 15 per cent reduction in mortality. Just goes to show, it’s never too late to make positive changes for your health! Low dose aspirin (ASA) gets a lot of press about its ability to help prevent heart attacks. However, any dose of ASA has potential side effects, such as GI bleeding or drug interactions. Convention wisdom suggests not

using ASA in patients who have heart failure, but new research is suggesting that it may be helpful to these patients as well. The results weren’t dramatic enough to BOB SANGHA recommend its use, but, if Pharmacist, BSc needed for other reasons, it may be okay to take after all. Often prescribed to patients who have suffered a heart attack, low dose ASA has been shown to reduce the risk of a second attack as well as improve survival when taken in the actual throes of a heart attack. Available without a prescription, many people assume it’s safe and will take it in an attempt to prevent any heart attack; however, the evidence says it plays no role in the primary prevention of an MI – and places the user at risk of side effects. The circumstances for the use of medications vary from individual to individual. Never share medicines or make assumptions about their safety.

Connor Watson and the rest of his Langley Thunder tier 1 U16 teammates didn’t let the foggy conditions deter practice at Willoughby Community Park on Feb. 15. The Thunder were competing over the weekend at the BCLA provincial field lacrosse championships with Langley returning with the silver medal.
The Langley Thunder came up one game short in their quest for the gold medal. The U16 tier 1 team was competing over the weekend at the Burnaby Lakes Sports Complex, which was hosting the B.C. Lacrosse Association provincial field lacrosse championships. The Thunder fell 10-4 to the Coquitlam Adanacs in Sunday’s gold-medal game. Langley had beat Ridge Meadows 11-6 in the semifinals. The team also beat New Westminster 14-2 and Port Coquitlam 7-4, while tying Pacific Rim 9-9, in the round robin. The Thunder’s Colin Gormley won a Warrior Fair Play award. Langley also had a squad in the U14 tier 2 provincial tournament, with the squad going 1-2. The Thunder beat Coquitlam Adanac #3 11-2 after losing to Penticton 7-4 and Mid Island 7-6. Langley’s Ethan Olhmann won a Warrior Fair Play award while Paul Kozevnikov won the Fair Play coach award.
Spartans fall short to Golden Bears in finals The Trinity Western Spartans 16-match winning streak came to an end in the gold medal game of the Canada West championships. The Spartans fell 3-1 (2624,25-20,25-27,25-20) to the host Alberta Golden Bears on Saturday at the Saville Community Sports Centre in Edmonton. Trinity Western was up in the fourth set before Alberta rattled off a 9-1 run that effectively gave the Golden Bears the set and the match. “Against an opponent like Alberta, you have to play your best match and I thought we had one of our weaker performances of this semester,” said Trinity Western coach Ben Josephson. “As evidenced, that’s not good enough to win a conference championship.” The Spartans were led by Canada West MVP Nick Del Bianco
who had 15 kills, four aces and five blocks. Ryan Sclater, a second team conference all-star, added 13 kills, a team high 11 digs and four blocks. Despite TWU collecting 18.5 blocks to Alberta’s 12, it was the Bears efficiency that turned the tables as the home side hit .291 while the Spartans were held to a .188 hitting percentage. Alberta also had a 51-37 edge in digs. “That was two good teams playing today,” said Alberta coach Terry Danyluk, “They were a team we knew would block well, which they did, so we had to do some other things well, which we did. We out-dug them by 15, which is the other side of the coin because I didn’t think we could out-block them but I thought if we could hit smart against them and out-dig them we could win, and that’s what happened.” Both teams advance to this
week’s CIS national championships, which are being hosted by the University of Saskatchewan. The Spartans are the fifth seed and will face No. 4 Laval Rouge et Or in the quarter-finals. The Trinity Western women’s team — who won the Canada West banner (see page 19) — will also face Laval at the CIS championships. Josephson said he is confident his team will correct the mistakes they displayed against Alberta. “The good thing is that we know what we have to do and we have a few days to sort things out,” he said. “We’re excited to get back to work and on to the next challenge.” In the Canada West Final Four semifinals, the Spartans defeated the Brandon Bobcats 3-1 (2519,25-19,21-25,25-22).

Spartans top Pandas to claim first CW title TRINITY WESTERN WOMEN’S VOLLEYBALL TEAM RALLIES FROM 0-2 DOWN TO KNOCK OFF TOP-SEED ALBERTA IN CANADA WEST CHAMPIONSHIP
GARY AH U J A Ti m e s Spo r t s
For the first time in program history, the Trinity Western Spartans are the Canada West champions. The women’s volleyball program accomplished that feat on Friday, upsetting the top-seed Alberta Pandas on the Pandas home court, the Saville Community Sports Centre, in Edmonton. In six previous trips to the Canada West Final Four championships, the Spartans had won three silver and three bronze
medals. And the Spartans — who had already qualified for the CIS national championships with a victory the day before in the Canada West semifinals — looked destined for another runner-up finish after Alberta won the first two sets, 25-23 and 25-17. But the Spartans rallied, winning 2521 and 25-23 to force a fifth and deciding set, which they won 1715. “They’ve been working hard, even in practices, to never back down and never stop fighting,”
said coach Ryan Hofer. “When someone makes a mistake, just keep swinging and that’s what they kept telling each other (in the final).” Trinity Western was led by Sophie Carpentier, who had 18 kills, while Alicia Perrin had 14 kills and five blocks. Royal Richardson came off the bench to spark the team in the fourth set with her team down 9-3, finishing with eight kills and three blocks. Richardson was named player of the game while Perrin was the Final Four MVP.
The Spartans, the top-blocking team in the country, only had a 13-11 advantage in the final, but five of the blocks came in the fifth set. “It was such a rewarding experience for everybody. To see the team pull together and play really hard and never give up, to feel that we did a lot of good things to help each other play the best, perform our best, was really rewarding,” Hofer said. Finally winning that elusive Canada West banner was rewarding, but the end goal remains the same: win the program’s first CIS banner. The Spartans have won bronze in both 2011 and 2013. “It is always tougher than you expect,” Hofer said about win-

ning the Canada West title, explaining that it takes a lot of work off the court as well. “You have to put so many details in place in order for it to happen. You need a little luck, a little bit of skill, a little bit of grit and fight and we were able to find that combination.” The Spartans leave today (Tuesday) for Toronto for the CIS national championships. Trinity Western is ranked No. 1 for the tournament and will play the No. 8 Laval Rouge et Or in Thursday’s quarter-finals. Since losing four straight matches in late October — which left the team with a 3-4 league record — Trinity Western has won 20 of the past 21 regular season and playoff matches.

Fraser Valley U14 strikes for gold in Las Vegas A local youth soccer team won the jackpot in Las Vegas. The Fraser Valley Selects U14 girls soccer team — which is comprised of players from Langley, Abbotsford and Chilliwack — travelled to Vegas earlier this month and returned with the gold medal from the Las Vegas Mayors Cup International Challenge. Even more impressive was the fact the team did not concede a single goal over their five games. Fraser Valley went 2-0-2 in the round robin, beating Colorado 5-0 and Edmonton 1-0 while playing to a pair of scoreless draws against Las Vegas and Montana. And they played Montana in the final as well, winning 1-0.

Thunder re-load as team readies for WLA season “We’re happy to get him, I think he can play in the league and contribute right away.” The six-foot 190-pound righthander had 48 goals and 83 points in 29 games over the last two seasons with another 29 goals and 71 points in 19 playoff games. The Thunder are coming off a 7-11 season which saw them miss the WLA playoffs for the first time in four seasons. The team allowed 163 goals, which was the second-highest in the league. They hope the addition of Jakob Doucet in the second round, 10th overall will fix that. Doucet, a member of the Jr. Salmonbellies program, is described as a big-bodied defender who works hard and can transition the ball well. “We definitely needed to address the left-hand defense and transition spots,” Buchan said. “He’s tough, gritty, in great shape and he’s going to fill a need for us quickly.”
In the third round, the team took Mykle-Winkler and Burnaby Jr. Lakers’ Tyler Buchan. Mykle-Winkler had 23 goals and 53 points for Langley last season. The Thunder also drafted a pair of goaltenders in the middle rounds, taking New Westminster’s Ross Bowman in the fourth and Burnaby’s David Mather in the fifth. Greg Finley (Delta/Langley) was taken in the seventh round and Michael Avery went in round eight. Doudelet went in the sixth round, Gladiuk in round nine and Vanden Hooven in round 10. “We’ve done our homework and every year we tend to get someone late and it pans out and hope for the same this year,” Buchan said. ••• Langley begins the 2015 WLA season on May 27 when they host the New Westminster Salmonbellies at the Langley Events Centre.

The Langley Thunder nabbed four local products out of their 11 selections in last week’s Western Lacrosse Association draft. The senior A lacrosse team added Brendan Mykle-Winkler, Dustin Doudelet, Ryan Gladiuk and William Vanden Hooven from the Langley Jr. Thunder program. Vanden Hooven plays defence while the other three are forwards. The club’s top pick was forward Anthony Malcolm, out of New Westminster, who was taken in the first round, third overall. The draft was held on Feb. 11 at the Langley Events Centre with Coquitlam’s Wes Berg taken first overall and Delta Islanders’ Eli McLaughlin second overall, to Coquitlam and Nanaimo, respectively. “We actually had Anthony anywhere in the top three,” said Thunder general manager Rob Buchan.

INFORMATION
WILKES, Len Len Wilkes passed on January 28, his loving wife, Sharon at his side in Calgary, AB. His family is grateful to have learned from
him and shared his joyful life and are struggling with broken hearts. Born September 19, 1936 in Nipawin, SK, Len ventured to Vanderhoof, BC as a very young man operating machinery for the Department of Highways. He married Eileen and they began their family, soon relocating to Burnaby. Len gained independence as an operating engineer. Fort Langley became home in 1972 and Len was known by his many friends as a man who loved to laugh and who always had time to help a neighbour. Len and Sharon transferred to Calgary where they could be central to their combined family in 1999. He always missed BC, referring to it as Gods Country and returned often to visit loved ones. Len leaves behind wife Sharon, (Calgary, AB), sisters, Gladys (Mt Unaiche, NS), June (Loreburn, SK), Kathleen (Hawarden, SK) and brother, Dennis (Surrey, BC). His daughters, Sandra (Roland) Krauer (Penticton BC), Tracy (Jack) Rees (Langley BC) & Terri (Kevan Kevener) Wilkes (Abbotsford, BC), & stepchildren
Cory (Carrie) Overlid, Janine (Simon) and Angela (Russ) Lawrie feel a huge emptiness. Sorrowfully, Len was predeceased by son, Rob at 17. Len’s 14 Grandchildren are growing into exceptional people in part as a result of his positive influence and steadfast love. A Celebration of Len’s Life will be held at 20078 Fernridge Cres, Langley, BC on March 7 at 10am. Please come prepared to share a happy memory and wear anything but black.

KALPATOO
Thomas Ramanand Dec. 21, 1948 - Feb.17, 2015 It is with profound sadness that we announce the sudden passing of Tom to a cerebral stroke on Tuesday, February 17, 2015 in Langley, British Columbia, Canada at the age of 66. He is deeply missed by his partner/wife of 35 years Deborah Strong Kalpatoo, and is survived by his brother Errol Kalpatoo (Toronto, Canada) and sister Margaret Kalpatoo (St. Joseph, Trinidad). Tom was born in Trinidad and Tobago in 1948. He graduated from St. Mary’s College before immigrating to Canada in 1972 where he attended Simon Fraser University and earned two Bachelor’s Degrees (Latin American Studies and Urban Geography). He later earned a Master’s Degree in Conflict Resolution from Antioch University, Ohio. Tom enjoyed highly-respected, diverse careers in Canada and in Trinidad and Tobago, highlighted by his position as a post-graduate lecturer in the Mediation Studies program at the University of the West Indies. In 2014 Tom was appointed as the first Honorary Consul for Trinidad and Tobago in British Columbia. Tom was many things: musician, counselor, teacher, mediator, mentor, loyal friend, loving husband, and excellent cook.
