Candidates tackle questions …continued from page A3

Rebecca Smith: New Democrats will not be turning back the clock by bringing back the long-gun registry.

For too long, both Liberals and Conservatives have played divisive politics with this issue. We simply refuse to do that.

Canadians can find reasonable, common-sense solutions to reduce gun violence and strengthen public protection, while respecting law abiding gun owners. Our focus right now is to crack down on crime and hire 2,500 new police officers to help make our communities safer.

13. Should the federal government invest more in Metro Vancouver public transit?

Yes, after ten years of the Conservatives, they have left our municipalities fighting against other municipalities for transit funding. An NDP government will provide long-term, stable and predictable funding to help the Lower Mainland grow. We will invest $5.2 billion in transit and infrastructure in the Lower Mainland over the next 20 years.

John Aldag: …existing infrastructure and building new systems.

I look forward to the plans and ideas from the Township of Langley, the surrounding communities and the province of British Columbia as we cooperate on achieving the best plans for

our neighbourhoods.

17. Should Canada raise taxes to fund government spending?

No. We have committed to cutting taxes for Canada’s middle class through a reduction in the second income tax rate from 22 per cent to 20.5 per cent, while a new tax rate of 33 per cent will be introduced on Canada’s top one per cent of earners.

We will honour the reduction in taxes for small businesses from 11 per cent to nine per cent. And we will not raise the corporate tax rate, to ensure Canada’s corporations remain competitive internationally and create jobs domestically.

Dean Drysdale Note: Dean Drysdale responded after the deadline.

3.Should Canada subsidize green energy production to cut CO2 emissions?

It depends on the cost and how much emissions would be cut.

6. Do you support a woman’s right to obtain an abortion as currently legislated?

I’m pro-life.

7. Does Canada Dean Drysdale Conservative candidate need stricter controls and tracking of guns?

Criminals who use guns should go to jail.

ELECTION STUFF

Advance voting starts soon Proper ID is needed under new rules.

MATTHEW CLAXTON mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

Early voting starts in Langley and across Canada this Friday for the Oct. 19 federal election.

There will be three days of advance polls, with just one site in each riding.

In Langley-Aldergrove, the advance polls will be held at Walnut Grove Secondary, 8919 Walnut Grove Dr., from noon to 8 p.m.

In Cloverdale-Langley City voting will be held at Douglas Park Community Elementary at 5409 206th St., also from noon to 8 p.m.

Advance voting at both locations will take place starting Oct. 9 and running to Monday, Oct. 12.

In Langley-Aldergrove, returning officer Cathy Li was expecting a busy weekend.

“I think there’s going to be higher numbers than normal voting this weekend,” Li said.

There have been quite a few people calling in to ask about advance voting.

On voting day, Oct. 19, polls will be open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.

Registered voters should have received voter information cards which tell them which polling station they can vote at.

If you haven’t received a voting card, you can check in with the local Elections Canada

returning office.

• Langley-Aldergrove – 604539-1380 • Cloverdale-Langley City – 604-539-2880 To vote, either by advance poll or on election day, voters must have proper ID, and the rules on ID have been tightened since the last election.

A driver’s licence or provincial ID card will suffice, but if you don’t have one of those, you will need two pieces of ID, at least one of which shows your home address. A wide variety of types of ID are accepted.

Canadians can also vote by mail, and the deadline to apply is coming up. Voters wishing to mail in a ballot must apply

by Tuesday, Oct. 13 at 6 p.m., at an Elections Canada office.

CRIME

Crime in Langley isn’t out of control, but mail theft is a concern, the head of the Langley RCMP told Township council.

centages in increases or decreases isn’t always a good indicator.

For instance, Langley saw a 100 per cent increase in homicides in 2014 compared to 2013.

That’s because there were two murders in 2014 compared to one in 2013.

In general, crimes against persons – assaults, sexual assaults, home invasions, armed robberies, and murder – rose eight per cent year over year, and were only two per cent higher than the five-

COURT

MURDER CASE

Dad frustrated, ‘angry’ Dealer

admits guilt

Nicholas Hannon’s family saw his accused killers in court Monday.

JENNIFER SALTMAN

MATTHEW CLAXTON

Special to the Langley Advance

mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

The family of murdered Langley teenager Nicholas Hannon watched his accused killers appear in Surrey court Monday morning.

Connor Campbell, Brad Flaherty, and Keith Tankard all appeared briefly in person or via video. The three co-accused, all charged with first degree murder, will be back in court on Nov. 4.

Outside the courthouse, Hannon’s father Craig said it was hard seeing the three young men, all of whom were friends of his son growing up.

“It’s very frustrating to see them,” Craig said. “It makes me angry.

He had coached the suspects in hockey and had known them for years.

It may be some time before the case comes to trial, but Hannon said his family has no concerns with the process. “It’s a long process, but we’re looking toward the end goal,” he said.

On Friday, the family held a funeral for Nicholas. Craig said they shed tears and said goodbye with friends.

Matthew Claxton/Langley Advance

Craig Hannon, Nicholas Hannon’s father, spoke to reporters outside the Surrey Provincial Court Monday after his son’s accused killers appeared.

Nicholas Hannon went missing in late February 2014. He was 19 when he disappeared.

The suspicious circumstances around his disappearance led police to turn the search over to the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT).

The Hannons offered a $10,000 reward for Nicholas’s safe return.

The police announced the arrests of all three young men over the 2015 Labour Day long weekend, and the discovery of Hannon’s remains in a heavily wooded area near Mission.

The Vancouver Sun reported last week that the parents of Campbell, one of the accused, are current and former Mounties.

- With files from the Vancouver Sun

A Langley man whom police dubbed “the Dr. Frankenstein of weapons” has pleaded guilty to a slew of firearms-related charges.

Bradley Michael Friesen, 38, appeared in B.C. Supreme Court in New Westminster on Monday morning.

Friesen admitted to a number of charges including: importing or exporting a firearm or component knowing it is unauthorized; illegally possessing a weapon/device/ ammunition for transfer; and possessing a prohibited weapon, device or ammunition knowing its possession is unauthorized.

The offences took place in Langley and Osoyoos in May, June and July of 2014.

well and I sure don’t want anybody changing the rules,” Jensen said, also promising to reverse recent changes by the Conservatives that would increase the age at which Canadians can start collecting OAS and GIS. On accessible homes, Dhillon said a Green government would call on the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation to do more, increase grants, and work with local communities.

Jensen touted the Liberals promised 10-year investment in social infrastructure.

Sangster, who has worked

in public health, said the NDP would recognize housing as a right.

On transportation, Sangster shared the story of a local woman who spent five hours getting to a medical appointment.

“That is simply not accessible,” she said, promising the NDP would increase transportation funding and make it more stable.

Jensen said the Liberals would quadruple investment in infrastructure and most of that would go towards funding for transit, particularly rapid transit projects.

Dhillon emphasized the importance of local knowledge, saying that giving provinces and municipal government the power and tools to deal with local transportation was the way to go.

The candidates also fielded a number of questions about veterans, and about whether there should be more permanent ways of dealing with seniors issues, including a dedicated Ministry of Seniors. >More at langleyadvance.com

entry to politics Every week the Langley Advance profiles one candidate for the federal election.

MATTHEW CLAXTON mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

Mark Warawa spent a dozen years as an Abbotsford city councillor and the last 11 as a Conservative MP for the Langley riding.

Now running in the re-aligned LangleyAldergrove riding, Warawa said he first got into civic politics because of a dream that he’d been elected.

The next day, a friend had also had the same dream, and Warawa, then a small business owner in Abbotsford, decided he ought to put his name on the ballot.

Warawa was one of the deciding votes on the amalgamation of Matsqui and Abbotsford, and in 1996 he ran for the provincial B.C. Reform Party, but he avoided federal politics.

With five young chilMark Warawa Conservative candidate dren, Warawa didn’t want to be heading across country to Ottawa.

It wasn’t until his kids were grown and he’d moved back to Langley, where they were born, that he jumped into the federal race for the then-new Langley riding in 2004.

“I try to stay non-partisan as much as possible,” Warawa said.

His proudest accomplishment, Warawa said, was the passage last year of the Safe at Home bill, which banned child sex offenders from living within two kilometers of their young victims.

The bill passed with almost unanimous support in the House of Commons.

Warawa has also worked on passing other private members bills or on legislation with other MPs, including making car immobilizers mandatory for new vehicles. > More at langleyadvance.com

FIRST NATIONS

KPU giving back pipeline money MATTHEW CLAXTON mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

 / FORTLANGLEY FORTLANGLEY.COM

AD SPONSORED BY

Kwantlen Polytechnic has withdrawn from a deal with Trans Mountain Pipeline that would have seen the oil pumping firm fund local scholarships and bursaries.

“My decision to withdraw KPU from this agreement was made out of respect for the Kwantlen First Nation’s right to argue its case before the National Energy Board regarding this pipeline expansion project,” said KPU president and vice-chancellor Alan Davis.

The Kwantlen First Nation members have been vigorous in their opposition to the pipeline expansion, and Kwantlen member Brandon Gabriel organized a sizable protest march through Fort Langley earlier this year.

Many members of the First Nation took part alongside environmentalists and other local residents.

The first nation is an intervenor in the National Energy Board hearings on the project and has a number of concerns about the project, said Kwantlen First Nation council member Tumia Knott.

KPU shows money not everything

I

Why should young people vote?

T

aking a look at the headline above, I’m sure most of you expected to read a stirring defence of voting, and a call to action to those between 18 and 30 to head out to the ballot boxes come this Oct. 19.

But it’s a serious question. What good will it do young people to vote?

Look at the rhetoric in this election, or in any federal or provincial election for the last couple of decades.

The party leaders, all of them, will certainly talk about youth issues, and usually they’ll throw out some kind of college tuition plan, maybe some job training programs. A few million here, a few million there.

The Greens have offered the most ambitious plan, with interest-free student loans and hard caps on student debt. The NDP also wants to phase out student loan interest (over seven years) and increase student grants, the Conservatives are talking about helping with RESP contributions – which only helps if your parents have money to save – and the Liberals are touting a “Learning Passport” that would give $4,000 to $6,000 to high school grads, but spread out over four years.

But when it comes to “youth issues” most parties don’t have much to say beyond a few snippets of educational reform.

What they’re mostly focused on are two endlessly repeated mantras: “the middle class” and “families.”

Those groups are generally great for politicians, because they’re so amorphous, they cover almost everyone in the country.

Scraping by on $35,000 a year with three kids? Middle class! Married doctors MATTHEW with a vacation ski chalet?

Middle class? As for families, well, that covers people who are married, single parents, blended families, grandparents…

But for those under 30 (and even this is a random cutoff; why not 25 or 28 or 22?) neither the middle class nor family are rallying cries.

More and more people are starting families later, and having fewer children when they do. More and more people are stretching out their time in school or living with their parents because they can’t find good jobs.

All the parties say they want to address the economy, but they’ve been saying that since we still used one-dollar bills. Things are not necessarily getting worse, but they aren’t getting better, and they’re getting more and more uncertain each year.

Painful Truth

t’s no secret that colleges and universities could always use some extra cash. So it’s highly notable that Kwantlen Polytechnic University turned down $300,000 from Trans Mountain Pipelines last week.

The oil-pumping firm had offered the money – doled out over 20 years in small increments for bursaries and small scholarships, mostly – as part of its campaign for the twinning of its pipeline, which runs straight through north Langley.

Not surprisingly, the Kwantlen First Nation has not been entirely enthusiastic about the prospect of an expanded oil line running through its traditional territory. They are intervenors in the National Energy Board hearings that will determine whether or not the project goes forward.

The protest against the expansion last April, one of the largest this side of the river, began on the Kwantlen First Nation reserve, and was organized by Kwantlen member Brandon Gabriel.

Seeing the college named after them take money from Trans Mountain apparently provoked some discussions between the two Kwantlens.

Normally, we would expect this kind of thing to be brushed off. The money would go to environmental education and helping students, the university could say.

But the leaders at KPU seem to have sincerely listened to the concerns raised by the First Nation’s leadership. And last week, they announced they were pulling out of the deal with Trans Mountain.

It’s no surprise that those who are against the pipeline expansion – and there are many – have been pleased with the news.

But fans of educational independence in general should be pleased.

Major corporations always make these donations with few or no strings, maybe just naming rights. But such donations are made as part of public campaigns for goodwill. Universities must remain places of free speech, and they must not only be free, they must be seen to be free of outside influences. KPU’s decision helps keep them above the fray.

– M.C.

Maybe there’s a very good reason for young people not to vote: they don’t have a stake big enough in our society to even bother picking a side.

Once you have some social equity – a job, kids, and especially some real estate – governments are eager to crowd around and offer to help, or at least to try to not make things actively worse CLAXTON for you.

Beyond that, older people may remember a time when parties were much, much more different from one another.

This campaign has actually seen some stark differences in approach, more than many elections since the start of the century. But the parties are still crowded around the center, still more alike than they were a generation ago. Can we blame people who grew up with this situation for looking at their options, throwing up their hands, and choosing not to choose?

The problem isn’t that young people are lazy or disengaged or any of the other insults regularly lobbed at them.

If politicians care about the youth vote, give them a reason to mark an X. Read Bob Groeneveld’s Odd Thoughts online this week at LangleyAdvance.com

Letters to the editor

Former Torie supporter feels shame

Dear Editor, Hi! My name is Pat and I’m a recovering Conservative. For some time I have assimilated and regurgitated everything S.H. and his loyalists stated… I relished the lies and deception.

I cared not for the truth and I am truly ashamed.

I didn’t care that S.H. reduced the GST to help the well-to-do.

This consumption tax was far too fair.

I didn’t care that our revenue base was eroded. I cared not that S.H. reduced the corporate tax rate by six per cent. As a shareholder I was glad that profits were hoarded and jobs were shipped overseas to increase profits and my share value.

I just didn’t care that the elderly would have to work another two years – notwithstanding the viability of the CPP. Nor did I care that S.H. had raided the EI fund for $57 billion. I just didn’t care.

I didn’t care about the homeless, the working poor, unem-

ployed youth, child poverty, student debt, single moms, missing indigenous women, the scientists and regulatory bodies, 10 straight deficits, poor trade deals, continuous trade deficits, military equipment, veterans, Wounded Warriors, the environment – the list goes on. I was a model Conservative… I didn’t care.

S.H. was so clever not to invest in infrastructure when interest rates were low – kick the can down the road for our grandchildren when interest rates will be higher and inflation increases costs. After all, they must bear some of our expenses – right?

S.H. knows what it’s about.

Cater to the wealthy and upper middle class and occasionally throw some scraps to the middle class. That’s where the votes are. Those others don’t matter because they rarely vote. Genius!

I didn’t care about loyalty to friends, as long as it didn’t impact me.

Throw them under the bus, if necessary.

Gladly trade anything for recognition and power.

S.H. was my idol.

Since joining Recovering Conservatives Anonymous (RCA), I have tried hard to overcome my greed, lack of empathy, narcissism and psychopathy, and it is a daily struggle to remind myself that I am not the most important thing on this planet, and I must learn fairness and sharing.

My friends and family are my greatest support in this trying time and I sometimes forget to thank them – oh yes, I still slip.

I do give thanks each day for my salvation and hope you know that if you really wish to escape this sect and seek help, your brothers and sisters at RCA are here to help.

Please contact the RCA prior to Oct. 19 if you care about country.

Conservative candidate dropped ball Dear Editor: I was disappointed by the Conservative performance at the all candidates meeting hosted

by Panorama Neighbourhood Association on Oct. 4, which was, frankly, dismal.

And it was a performance featuring transparent rhetoric and parroted lines delivered almost apologetically – or at least, so quietly that Dean Drysdale was asked to speak up in a classroom-sized space.

His comments about the universal childcare benefit elicited shocked exclamations, grumbles of disbelief, and shaken heads from the audience.

He seems to think that it would tear families apart and force them to enrol their children at childcare facilities. He added that he disapproved of having children raised by “strangers” and praised Canadians for their ability to work around the lack of universal childcare by playing Tetris with work shifts or getting grandma to raise the kids.

Cries of “what about single parents?” and similar comments were disregarded.

Perhaps the most offensive moment occurred when the subject of Bill C-24 came up. When asked if he would disavow Harper’s euphemistic “old-stock

Canadian” comment, Drysdale gave a long-winded no.

He said that he thought the term was an appropriate description.

The sight of the Conservative candidates Drysdale and Harpreet Singh trying to sell the party line to an audience that had started out open minded but ended up mostly unsympathetic, their faces carefully blank as they gave increasingly scripted and vague answers, was almost amusing.

Less amusing is the fact that some people are still going to vote for them on Oct. 19.

his will be the 20th Cranberry Festival in Fort Langley, a testament to the popularity of the tart treat as well as its importance in the history of Langley.

The festival is always held on the Saturday of the Thanksgiving weekend to celebrate the harvest and history of the cranberry.

According to some First Nation legends, cranberries were delivered to earth in a dove’s beak by the Great Spirit.

Used as food, medicine, even dye for clothing and blankets, cranberries have a long and honoured history.

They are also a great way to attract people to a family-friendly, daylong party.

“The last few years we have had great weather, and generated attendance of approximately 60,000 people from all over the region, from Chilliwack to West Vancouver,” according to organizer Meghan Neufeld.

The Fort Langley Lions will be cooking breakfast from 8 a.m. to noon (or as long as the grub lasts).

The festival runs 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. rain or shine.

On the water No matter what the weather, there are teams of people willing to put themselves through a challenge.

Paddlers and non-paddlers of all ages and experience in teams of 10 including a steersperson will compete in three races, including the infamous Cranberry Race Final.

The 2015 Cranberry Races take place on Bedford Channel on festival day and are hosted by the Fort Langley Canoe Club.

All the team spots are filled, and there’s plenty of good spectating opportunities from the banks of the Fraser River.

ART

Works show world view A mixed media artist is showing this month.

Zuzana Vasko ponders about how people relate to the natural world and has put her thoughts down in art.

Her show “What we ask of the hills, and what the hills ask of us” is at the Fort Gallery, 9048 Glover Rd., Oct. 7 to 25.

Many of the pieces have a journalistic quality to them and consider the daily nature of life.

The work has been an opportunity for her to take further the research she did in her doctorate in Arts Education, and she is grateful to explore these issues in a way she feels is most fitting – through art.

The opening reception is Oct. 8 (tonight) at 7 p.m. in conjunction with the gallery’s First Thursday art evenings. It includes Agneta and Josine Eikelenboom on cello and recorder respectively, and a talk by the artist.

FUNDRAISER

Joint gala makes dollars, sense Big band dancing is added to second annual charity event.

ROXANNE HOOPER rhooper@langleyadvance.com

For the second year running, two Langley agencies that share a mandate of caring for the community’s dying, are joining forces on a fundraiser.

Langley Hospice and the Langley Lodge’s Langley Care Society (LCS) and foundation are hosting a Caring Hearts Gala on Saturday, Oct. 17 at Cascades Casino.

Last October, the ‘old Hollywood’ themed bash raised more than $38,000, which was split evenly between both charities.

Naturally, they’re wishing to surpass last year’s tally.

But more importantly, they’re hoping to gain a wealth of “invaluable” awareness for the two charities, explained hospice communications manager Shannon Todd Booth.

“It takes a village” to raise a child, and likewise that same village needs to come together to care for its members as they age, she added.

With more and more non-profits struggling to raise much-needed money and awareness in this growing community, Todd Booth applauded

Langley Lodge’s Terry Metcalfe with Marilyn Monroe (a.k.a. Tracey Bell) during last year’s Caring Hearts Gala. the innovation and synergy of this joint venture.

“Last year’s went so well that we realized we could be more efficient, more effective and – ultimately – better serve the community by joining forces once again,” said LCS past-president Terry Metcalfe.

Already ahead of last year’s attendance of 200, this year’s event is expected to bring together more than 300 for a night of dining, dancing, as well as live and silent auctions.

This year, funds raised will support the therapeutic programs, from art, horticultural, and music therapy to pastoral care at Langley Lodge. The lodge is a complex-care facility

that has been part of the community for more than 40 years and cares for 139 residents.

For hospice, the funds from this year’s gala will help provide palliative care and bereavement support programs to the more than 5,000 individuals who access their free services each year.

“These types of events provide us with an opportunity to raise awareness and important funding to help us in our mission to provide compassionate support to help people live with dignity and hope while coping with grief and the end of life,” said hospice president Kathy Derksen.

This year, they’re apparently “kicking it up a notch” with the addition of dancing to the musical stylings of a nine-piece show band.

Tony Barton’s Sharp Dressed Man stage show, featuring Langley drummer Kyle Randomsky – the manager of Langley’s Long & McQuade music store – will keep people dancing until the clock strikes midnight.

“Langley residents are encouraged to put on their dancing shoes, and open their hearts and wallets for one heck of a good time – and two very important causes,” Todd Booth said. Tickets start at $150 and are available at caringheartsgala.com or by calling 604-530-1115 or 604-532-4207.

Bonnie Walters stopped into the Penny Pincher Christmas Store Oct. 1 and found some festive items.

Secondhand funds global efforts HEATHER COLPITTS hcolpitts@langleyadvance.com

International Christian Response (ICR) started in Switzerland 46 years ago and has its Canadian base in Langley.

To help raise funds for the work it does in trouble spots around the world, the organization has expanded its Langley thrift operations.

On Sept. 25, the second local location opened, in the former Bibles for Missions site, 200th Street and 57th Avenue.

It’s had a shop at 5786 203rd St. for a few years.

That store will have a smattering of goods but will mainly be baby and kids items, including larger items as well as themed sales. Nov. 1 it becomes a Christmas store. The first store was about 2,400 square feet. The new store is 6,200 square feet.

Manager Jaylene Batten said the new store has a boutique section to give people a unique shopping experience, a vintage corner, furniture, clothing, housewares, sporting goods, and more.

“It’s not high end but nicer stuff consolidated in

one area,” she said.

A key feature is the wheelchair accessibility which includes a wheelchair accessible bathroom.

Batten noted that’s important because the store wants people in chairs to be able to shop and has volunteers in wheelchairs.

The official grand opening is Oct. 17.

ICR is the Canadian branch and works with HMK of Switzerland, an organization founded in 1969. There is also organizations in the United Kingdom and United States.

They all provide support

for Christians in areas of where they are persecuted, using people in those nations to help get the support to who needs it.

The pastors and others in the countries have been screened. They are working in nations such as Cuba, Egypt, Iraq, Syria, Vietnam, and North Korea.

The shop is open 9:30 a.m. until 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday and until 3:30 p.m. Saturdays. It’s closed Sundays and holidays.

More about ICR is at www.christianresponse.ca. > More at langleyadvance.com

The summer heat didn’t stop Langley Memorial Hospital Auxiliary members from getting in the Christmas spirit.

They were, after all, busy setting up the Penny Pincher Christmas Store.

It opened Oct. 1, with a crowd already waiting outside, and is located beside the Penny Pincher clothing area.

“It’s been fun,” said the auxiliary’s Thelma Breese about the set up.

The store uses space in the site owned by the hospital auxiliary, a storefront at 20560 Fraser Hwy. “We had so much stuff in the big store,” Breese said. “We had nowhere to put it.”

So the charity that raises funds for Langley Memorial Hospital decided to

set up a three-month Christmas store.

The Penny Pincher Christmas Store will remain open until close to Christmas when the space will be rented out.

Items from the area behind the Penny Pincher clothing store will be cleared out and the clothing area expanded into the space, Breese said.

The auxiliary has a large contingent of volunteers who work the thrift stores.

Many have signed up for extra shifts in the Christmas store so the main thrift area is not left short of staff.

Breese said there are two volunteers assigned just to restock shelves because while the store holds a great deal, it’s a fraction of the items the auxiliary plans to sell through the storefront.

Donations of Christmas and other items must still be taken to the donation area, the back section of the main thrift store, for sorting and pricing.

Another highlight of the day was the Han Shan poetry exhibit, in which poems will hang from the trees with string.

An original donation of $2.5 million by the Blaauw family in 2013 allowed Trinity Western to buy a 25-acre parcel known locally as Grey Pit. The late Thomas Blaauw built a poultry and cranberry

Standing under a canopy of trees, members of Langley’s Opus One Women’s Choir warmed up their vocal chords at the foot of the Blaauw Eco Forest on Saturday.

The kids can pick up yogurt, eggs, cereal, juice and fruit but the most popular is the bagels. And since these are teens, the program goes through a lot of food. It costs about $8,000 annually.

“I do shop around,” Therrien said.

And the program also benefits with big donations groups such as Breakfast Clubs of Canada, Minute Maid, Sources Food Bank, grateful parents and others.

On Oct. 6 the school was a local site celebrating Breakfast Day in Canada, with local dignitaries stopping by and volunteers from Breakfast Clubs of Canada and Coca-Cola lending a hand.

Organizers also work to ensure food doesn’t go to waste. Leftover bananas go in the freezer to be used for smoothies. Leftover perishables go to the lunch room.

Kwantlen Polytechnic University helped set up the school greenhouse which is growing greens such as kale, that will be used in the breakfast program.

The program has several benefits. The kids go to class with filled stomachs so they can concentrate on school, and staff have reported fewer problems and incidents.

The breakfast club also helps ensure the kids are at school ahead of the bell so there’s fewer students late for class.

“I’ve noticed a lot of kids coming out of their shell,” Therrien noted.

Heather Colpitts/Langley Advance

Meaghan Laycock is one of the students who volunteers at Breakfast Club. The school greenhouse will supply the food program with fresh greens in the future.

Kids who wouldn’t typically mingle in the halls will eat together.

“They feel it’s a safe place to be,” Nelson said.

She volunteers through Brookswood Church and said it was easy to get church volunteers for this program.

“I think the kids really appreciate people from the community taking time to help,” Nelson said.

The program started last school year but has grown. Staff checked other programs to see what worked and what didn’t.

There’s no means test or check on family income. The Breakfast Club is open to any student.

For some students, it’s about lack of resources but for others, it’s about being rushed in the mornings and families being on the go. Others like the opportunity to break bread with friends.

Grade 11 student Meaghan Laycock, who helps out at the breakfast club, said there’s another factor for high school students.

“Everyone’s really stressed about school so they want to get extra sleep in,” she added.

G

arlic has very deep roots in history. In ancient Egypt, it was apparently a popular medicine and some of the art in the pyramids show garlic.

The Chinese are said to have been eating garlic for 6,000 years and possibly even earlier.

Most vegetables need to be watered all through their growing season. But garlic is one crop which can handle intermittent drying out through May and can do without water altogether by the time July starts.

Garlic is very hardy and pests dislike it – even the voles which may spend winter turning fall-planted shallots into rows of holes. Shallots grown in containers escape this problem.

October is the perfect month to plant garlic but there’s no huge problem planting through winter.

Gardening in Langley

Popular plant has pungent power

ANNE MARRISON

Later planting, though, means slower sprouting and cloves are often smaller.

The soil garlic loves includes compost or fish fertilizer or organic fertilizer. Mulching deters weeds and holds on to moisture even in dry spells.

This covering can be mushroom manure, compost or grass clippings.

For planting, the garlic clusters are broken apart and each clove planted with the point up. There are many different opinions on spacing,

but I’ve planted five inches apart and still harvested large cloves of hardneck garlic.

When the first garlic shoots start emerging is the time that many in-ground gardeners notice one or two renegade shoots that escaped harvesting.

If you leave them in place, each individual clove in each cluster makes make a cluster of its own. Smaller, but quite eatable.

The next time garlic needs attention is when it sprouts stalks in late spring and produces what look like large buds. These are garlic scapes and they need to be removed or the cloves will be smaller. They’re very tasty sliced into stirfries or soup.

By July, (or earlier if we have another long drought) garlic leaves start browning at the ends and sometime in August will have died right back. It’s best to harvest them in a

sunny spell because garlic cures much better in sun.

If you wait too long to harvest them the stalks shrivel up and lose contact with the clusters. At that point some clusters escape harvesting entirely.

You’ll find their newly sprouted shoots later in late fall or spring.

Garlic lasts longer if you can store it in a cool spot. Hard-neck garlic is very difficult to braid and is better stored in a mesh bag with the roots and stem cut short. Mesh fruit bags can be re-used for this.

Hardneck garlic doesn’t keep quite as well as soft-neck garlic but hard-neck has much larger cloves.

Softneck is easier to braid.

But the hardneck garlic is by far my favourite and is the variety most widely sold. Varieties abound.

‘Music’, ‘Red Russian,’ ‘Persian Star,’ and

‘Fish Lake #3’ are all excellent, but there are exuberant descriptions of countless other garlic kinds.

Another interesting variety is ‘Elephant Garlic’ which is really a kind of leek). It has very large, long-storing cloves. It’s said these can weigh up to one pound. It’s a perennial but can apparently harbour diseases unless you dig it up every year and replant a few cloves.

Declutter for sale The fifth annual Langley Seniors Resource Centre garage sale is expected to attract more than 1,000 people.

The Oct. 17 sale runs 8:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. at 20605 51B Ave. “Furniture, electronics, clothing, artwork, books, toys – we even have an entire room dedicated to Christmas,” said manager of fundraising Brett O’Reilly.

With donated items completely filling a giant steel storage container and flooding into offices, space is at a premium until the big day.

The non-profit society that runs the seniors centre has been accepting donations of clean, functioning, sellable items and will right up to Oct. 16. Donate items Monday to Friday, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Those unable to drop off items can call the centre about pickup service at 604530-3020.

This has become a key fundraiser for the centre which has more than 900 recreation members and helps more than 400 people through its outreach programs. The Adult Day Program serves more than 150 adults with physical and mental limitations.

ANIMAL WELFARE

Turtle conservation program praised Turtle recovery continues to gather steam in Aldergrove.

A helping hand for some tiny terrapins has brought praise to a Langley zoo.

The Greater Vancouver Zoo has won the Peter Karsten’s Conservation Award for its efforts to help the western painted turtle. The award comes from Canada’s Accredited Zoos and Aquariums (CAZA)

Langley Advance files

Western painted turtles are locally endangered, but a breeding program is trying to bring the species back. and goes to an individual or institutional achievement in the field of conservation.

For the past three years, the zoo and its

partners have established a “head starting” program, bringing in eggs, breeding turtles, and releasing them into the wild

once they had been reared. Releasing fullgrown individuals increases the turtles’ chances of survival.

The animals were released at sites determined by the Western Painted Turtle Recovery Team.

Last year some of the turtles were released with radio transmitters glued to their shells for tracking purposes, so biologists could learn more about their behaviour, movements, and habitat needs.

In 2013, the program released 73

hatchlings. That was increased to 120 from the 2014 hatchlings, and 130 hatchlings hatched this year are scheduled for release in 2016.

“There is very little known about hatchling and juvenile turtle behaviour/ movements and habitat needs, this data will help to inform this species’ conservation,” said wildlife biologist Andrea Gielens.

The Pacific Coast population of the western painted turtle is endangered at present.

Extraction and Non-Extraction therapies?

A:

A primer should be applied to new and previously unpainted surfaces, or when bonding and/or adhesion issues are present.Use a stain-blocking primer when water or smoke damage are present.

Dulux carries a wide variety of primers and specialty primers to ensure a quality finish and a job done right the first time!

A:

Each treatment option is designed to address crowding of the teeth, the bite, and facial aesthetics. Extraction therapy is a technique in which one or more teeth are removed to make room for the other teeth in the mouth. This is in contrast to nonextraction therapy, in which the patient’s jaw is expanded and/or the shape and size of some teeth are adjusted to make them fit within the jaw. Our office’s treatment philisophy is very conservative and we do make every effort to avoid extractions. However, for severe crowding and severe jaw discrepancy cases, extraction may be required.

He harvests fruit with a forklift Scott Carley took a pair of impressive specimens to a Giant Pumpkin Weigh-off.

TROY LANDREVILLE tlandreville@langleyadvance.com

Troy Landreville/Langley Advance

South Langley’s Scott Carley leaned up against one of two pumpkins he took to Krause Berry Farms & Estate Winery for the Giant Pumpkin Weigh-Off.

My gourd, there were some humongous pumpkins at Krause Berry Farms & Winery Estate on Saturday.

Two of the biggest of the bunch at the Giant Pumpkin Weigh-Off belonged to local boy Scott Carley.

His winner was 186 inches in circumference and weighed 1,411 pounds.

His other pumpkin weighed 1,200 pounds and 173 inches in circumference.

Carley is coming off a Sept. 26 win at the Skagit Giant Pumpkin Festival in Mount Vernon, Wash., where, competing with the big growers in Washington State, he took the top prize with a

100-day-old whopper that tipped the scales at 1,427.5 pounds.

He planted his winning entry April 20 and pollinated it June 20.

And while he works for a local environmental engineering firm, Carley knows a little bit about farming, and growing pumpkins.

He grows his gourds in a 10,000 square foot area on a portion of his five-acre property in South Langley.

“It’s just a hobby,” Carley said. “I’ve got a bit of a farming background so I just kinda wanted to get into pumpkins.”

While Carley is a relative newbie when it comes to growing pumpkins, a hobby he took up three years ago, he’s been growing canola and wheat in Manitoba for the past two decades.

He oversees the annual seeding at the more than 1,000 acre farm owned by his mom and dad, Marg and Jack, near Russell, in southwest Manitoba.

Closer to home, the pumpkin season

was okay, but not great, Carley said.

“The daytime temperatures were so high, and the nighttime temperatures were unusually cool, and 95 per cent of the pumpkin grows at nighttime, and with the cool nighttime temperatures, they haven’t really been doing all that well.”

Carley said a shift in temperature in mid-August affected the pumpkins.

“It got really cold, cloudy, rainy, so it’s too bad,” Carley said.

Carley isn’t done, just yet.

“I have two pumpkins left that I am taking down to a big competition in the United States on Oct. 10,” he said.

“I’m hoping I will beat the record for Western Canada.”

A pumpkin weighing 1,536 pounds is the current record.

Carley will also be taking his squash next weekend and hopes to set a new B.C. record which is currently held by Langley’s Kate Mumford, set last year at 722 pounds.

What is the ideal number of martial arts classes a child should take per week?

In our opinion, twice a week is the perfect number of classes at a beginner level.

Although we appreciate that parents want to give their children the opportunity to be exposed to as many activities as possible, it is very easy to overwhelm them with too many activities. A good balance is definitely the key. Cost aside, children (and parents) that are rushing from swimming, to martial arts, then on to dance or another sport after a full day of school, will eventually risk “burn out”. Downsizing to just a couple of extra-curricular activities, will allow children to enjoy those activities a lot more, and develop their skills better, while still having important time to relax with family and friends.

Consumer Proposal?

Not all debt can be handled without a Trustee. A Consumer Proposal is the only method creditors like Canada Revenue Agency & Student Loans will accept to reduce those debts.

North Langley Bears’ Eh Hset Ta carried the ball against North Surrey last weekend in bantam football action.

Blair Canning photo

Bantam Bears A North Langley bantam team lost for the first time since 2013 as the Bears fell 28-10 to the North Surrey Tigers.

The Bears’ only touchdown was set up by a 22-yard kickoff return by Andrew Canning that gave the North Langley great field position on the Tigers’ 43-yard line.

After a couple of impressive runs by Pablo Wigwigan followed by an 11-yard reception by Eh Hset Ta, quarterback Nick Lacroix took the ball into the Tigers’ end zone from two yards out.

However, that and a 10-yard field goal by David Wegert was all the offence the Bears could manage on the afternoon.

The Bears defence was solid in a losing cause as Ser Ler Pwe Htoo and K’Paw Shee Htoo both had interceptions and Connor Hurley picked up his third fumble recovery of the season.

MIDGET FOOTBALL

RENTALS

Read Fatmeh’s story here

Stamps slay Giants What’s Last Sunday, Langley put an end to Chilliwack’s modest win streak.

The aptly named Chilliwack Giants, one of the top teams in the Vancouver Mainland Football League’s 12-man midget division, had their twogame unbeaten streak snapped by the host Langley Stampeders on Sunday.

First quarter action at McLeod Stadium was played between the 30-yard lines with both defences playing shutdown football.

In the second quarter, Langley put together a nice 70-yard drive, topped off by an 11-yard touchdown toss by quarterback Joss Yanciw to Simon Odong.

Chilliwack then responded with an 18-yard field goal.

The Giants’ final drive in the second quarter was halted with a timely interception by Riley Carter to end the half at 7-3.

Tbirds tied twice …continued from page A31

In game two at the Abbotsford Rec Center Sunday morning, the teams tied 3-3.

Mackenzie Wight with a pair and Jonathan Rees scored for Fraser Valley while Jordan Naylor manned the Fraser Valley net.

Fraser Valley is back in action Saturday at 4 p.m. at the Abbotsford Recreation Center, taking on the Vancouver North West Giants.

The Thunderbirds include Langley forwards Kaelen Anderson, Logan Hunter, Jonathan Rees, and Jonathan Stein, Aldergrove forward Baxter Anderson, Langley defencemen Matthew Dyck and Liam Visram, and Aldergrove goaltender Jordan Naylor.

The third stanza saw many exciting plays on both sides of the ball, however, neither defence conceded any points The final stanza continued to be highly competitive.

The Stampeders marched the ball from their 26 into Giants territory, before their drive stalled. But a face mask penalty against the Giants put Langley in position to add a field goal.

The Giants put two more drives together, both of which were snuffed out by the Stampeders defensive backs.

Interceptions by Dalton Delaney on one series and Kyle Clarot on another sealed the 10-3 win for Langley.

With the win, the Stampeders move into a tie for third place in their division, with a game in hand.

Next up for the Stamps in a home game Sunday, Oct. 11, against the Comox Raiders.
