Spring Break Bonanza Come Join in the FUN!

Medical marijuana dispensaries are as ubiquitous as coffee shops in downtown Vancouver, but municipal governments in the Fraser Valley are nipping the operations in the bud.

Dave Smith and four other directors of the Motacan Compassion Society opened their doors on 271 Street in downtown Aldergrove on Feb. 1 and within days received a letter from Bull & Hauser, the solicitors for the Township of Langley, demanding that they cease operations

by Feb. 29.

Smith says Motacan’s directors “are trying to follow the regulations and rules” and have tried to talk to the Township staff and council about how they could meet those requirements, but “no one will talk to us, they all refer us to the lawyers (Bull & Hauser).”

According to the letter from Bull & Hauser a dispensary is not a legal use.

Smith also put in a request to bring a delegation to council’s public meeting but “they never called us back.”

Motacan ceased operating as a dispensary on March 1, but Smith says they would like a business licence to continue to operate as a public consultation and education centre.

Warrant issued for prolific offender RCMP have issued an arrest warrant for one of Langley’s most prolific offenders.

Robin Allan Hibbs, 50, is wanted in relation to an alleged theft that occurred on Feb. 11 when over $900 in power tools was stolen from ROB I N a store in the Willowbrook HIBB S shopping area.

Additionally, Hibbs is wanted for failing to comply with probation stemming from a December 2014 conviction for break-and-enter.

Hibbs is described as Caucasian, 50 years old, six feet tall, 200 lbs., with brown hair, blue eyes and a scar on his forehead. Hibbs wears glasses and has been known to live in and frequent the Langley City area.

If you have information that might assist in the arrest of Hibbs, call Langley RMCP at 604532-3200 or, to remain anonymous, call CrimeStoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS.

Call him ‘Councillor Pachal,’ now By-election winner sworn in as newest member of Langley City Council, replacing the late Dave Hall DAN FERGUSON Times Reporter

When a Times reporter addressed Langley City council’s newest member as “Mr.” Pachal, one of his colleagues was quick to point out the error.

“It’s Councillor Pachal,” Coun. Rudy Storteboom said.

Nathan Pachal grinned.

On Monday night, the winner of the Langley City by-election took his seat.

Pachal read out the oath of office, as specified in the Local Government Act. Among other things, the law requires a B.C. municipal councillor to promise that they are qualified to hold the office of municipal councillor, were not involved in “vote buying or intimidation,” and will disclose “any direct or indirect pecuniary interest” in issues that come before council and refrain from debating or voting on them.

When he was done reading the oath out loud, Pachal signed the paper making it official.

“Welcome aboard,” mayor Ted Schaffer said.

On Feb. 27, Pachal won the Langley City by-election to fill the seat left vacant by the late councillor Dave Hall, taking 740 votes out of the 2,076 cast for all nine candidates.

That’s about 12 per cent of the eligible voters, which is considered good for a by-election.

Pachal had to wait until the sec-

ond council meeting following his election win before he was sworn in to allow the time limit for a legal challenge of the election results to expire.

Pachal said it all became real to him when his first councillor’s package arrived, including a manual, a thick binder and a memory stick full of files.

Pachal is a longtime advocate for improved public transit and cycling who spent much of his campaign talking about the need to revitalize the downtown, treat homelessness and fight crime.

The by-election win was his second attempt, following his near-miss in 2014 when he was edged out of a council seat by just 71 votes.

Pachal’s husband, Rob Bittner, was in the audience for the Monday swearing-in along with other friends and supporters, including former Township Coun. Grant Ward and fellow transit crusader and ally Joe Zaccaria. Zaccaria said he has moved to the U.S. but made a trip back across the border to Langley to see Pachal at his first council meeting.

The business of the City took about an hour to complete.

Pachal made his first official motion as a councillor to accept the agenda at the beginning of the meeting.

When the session wrapped up, council adjourned to a nearby coffee house for their traditional post-meeting get-together.

Nathan Pachal reads the oath of office as he is sworn in as a member of council for the City of Langley on Monday night.

Business focus ‘strictly the medicinal side,’ says owner From Page 1

“We’re not into the recreational side of cannabis, we’re strictly the medicinal side,” said Smith, noting that some of the products, such as the topical creams, don’t contain any of the active THC found in recreational pot.

“More people are choosing this route, for pain relief, for rheumatoid arthritis, and so on,” said Smith.

“We don’t sell anything to just anyone, they must have a doctor’s referral, everything is lab tested, and we monitor how much people are purchasing.

“We are helping people, not hurting them.”

Smith said Motacan originally had planned to open in Mission and while municipal staff seemed receptive to the proposal, “the RCMP said ‘not a chance.’ So we came to Aldergrove instead.”

Langley Township mayor Jack Froese told the Times the issue is the lack of a licence.

“Basically, they’re operating without a business licence,” Froese said.

“We’ll treat them the same as any other business without a licence.”

Abbotsford Mayor Henry Braun said that the city is using bylaw enforcement to fight the dispensary now, but if the injunction is won and still disobeyed, the police would likely become involved.

Abbotsford is the process of shutting down a third dispensary, Mary Jane’s Glass and Gifts on South Fraser Way, as well as banning owner Don Briere from opening any similar businesses in the future.

Briere, who owns over a dozen dispensaries in B.C. and Ontario, was denied a business licence by the city, which requires compliance with all Canadian laws.

City’s 1981 population of 15,700 had just 26 outside workers to maintain the roads, signs, water and sewer services and to renovate and repair municipal buildings.

“All those 20-year-old pipes in the ground should be regularly maintained and repaired — but being short-staffed, all we can give them is a quick patch job,” Noftall said.

“I don’t think the city hall realizes that it’s eventually going to cost the taxpayers double to fix it all up a few years down the road.”

Even with the four employees back on the job, workers claimed they could not take on any additional work load “due to hazardous safety conditions.”

City clerk Bob Wilson said civic employee negotiations would most likely be ratified pending settlements in other Lower Mainland municipalities.

The City would then match those agreements.

A threatened series of wildcat walkouts by 42 local civic workers in the City of Langley was averted when four laid-off outside workers were brought back on the job.

Local members of the Canadian Union of Public Employees had threatened the walkouts, and promised to continue rejecting any overtime or weekend work, three weeks earlier after the the City released the four employees due to budget restraints.

There were a series of threats and negotiations — and even a one-day walkout and picket outside of City Hall and the works yard — before the City agreed to take the workers back.

Local CUPE spokesperson John Noftall claimed the layoffs made it impossible to continue even minimal servicing of the city, according to the front page article in the March 25, 1981 edition of the Times.

Langley RCMP hand out 38 tickets during distracted driving blitz More than one driver claimed to have been holding their wallet to their ear when they were busted for talking on phone, said police Using a hand-held device while driving has been illegal since 2010, yet many drivers still aren’t getting the message.

Langley RCMP issued 38 violation tickets for distracted driving on March 17 during a day-long enforcement campaign to remind drivers to leave their phones alone.

With March designated as distracted drivers month, the Langley traffic section has been out in full force using unmarked cars and other innovative ways to catch violators.

Beyond receiving an expensive fine — $167 plus three penalty points (a higher cost than most hands-free blue tooth devices) — the consequences of distracted driving are drastic.

According to ICBC, on average 81 people die every year in crashes related to distracted driving — the second leading cause of car crash fatalities in B.C. Those who are on their phone are five times more likely to crash, and drivers speaking on a cellphone are 50 per cent less aware of what is happening around them.

Despite these statistics, many violators on March 17 still had excuses. Some of the common

• They were holding it in their hands, but claiming they weren’t using it • It wasn’t their phone held up to their ear, it was their wallet (more than one driver said this) Langley RCMP also issued 18 seatbelt tickets, 15 intersection tickets and another 15 tickets for a variety of other reasons during the campaign.

Managing Diabetes Side Effects with Light Therapy W

e at LED Quantum Light Therapy offer light therapy ranging from the infrared, red and blue spectrums of light.

“There This article will focus on light therapy in the are no infrared spectrum. drugs, no Dr. Julian Whitaker, one of America’s needles most trusted wellness doctors, has spent over and no 30 years treating tens pain, just of thousands of people, soothing many with serious, chronic illnesses. Dr. light” Whitaker’s description of how infrared light therapy works and how it can be used to manage diabetes side effects is one of the clearest, most succinct definitions I have come across and it is the one I will share with you today.

“Infrared light therapy … delivers pulses of special wavelengths of light through the

skin directly to injured tissues. Though the light itself is invisible, its effects are readily apparent: enhanced blood flow, improved sensation, regeneration of tissues, and pain relief.

“Flexible pads containing small lights are affixed to the affected areas. The energy that pulses from the lights penetrates beneath the skin and is absorbed by deep tissues. After just 30 minutes of treatment, blood flow is enhanced by 400 percent, and this boost in local circulation persists for several hours after the pads are removed.

The key to this dramatic improvement in blood flow is a short-lived molecule called nitric oxide.

“Nitric oxide is an unstable gas that is crucial to the health of every part of the body that depends on an adequate blood supply for normal functioning.

Unfortunately, people dealing with diabetes produce less nitric oxide than healthy individuals. It’s not surprising then that people living with diabetes often suffer from problems related to poor circulation, including heart disease, poor blood

pressure health, kidney dysfunction, retinal damage, peripheral neuropathy, and impaired wound healing. This is where infrared light therapy comes in.

“As blood cells pass beneath the light unit, they absorb photons of energy, causing them to release nitric oxide. This localized release enhances blood flow in the immediate vicinity, bringing oxygen and nutrients to injured tissues and stimulating healing.

“Infrared light therapy has been the subject of at least eight clinical trials in patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy and ‘loss of protective sensation,’ an objective measure of nerve impairment and a significant risk factor for amputation.

These studies found that treatment with infrared light restored sensation in 93 percent of affected limbs, greatly reducing risk of amputation.”

“Though you may not hear about it from your conventional doctor, infrared light therapy is gaining popularity as its benefits are becoming better known.”

Light sessions are target-specific, relaxing, painless and effective. Call now for a free consultation.

OPINION

Brenda Anderson | 604.514.6751 | newsroom@langleytimes.com

Know any heroes?

If the comic books we read as children — and the rash of movies they’ve inspired over the past couple of decades — have taught us anything, it’s that heroes walk among us.

Unlike in the Marvel universe, though, real-life heroes don’t usually wear masks or hide behind secret alter egos.

That doesn’t mean they’re always easy to spot.

Langley is filled with good people doing good things, often without any thought to being recognized or rewarded for that work.

That’s about to change.

With the arrival of spring, it’s the perfect time for Langley to once again root out and acknowledge local champions of Mother Earth.

Now in its 10th year, the Langley Environmental Hero Awards committee, spearheaded by Langley-Aldergrove MP Mark Warawa, has once again put out a call for nominees and the Times is proud to serve as media sponsor for the effort.

Langley residents who have, and/or continue to, make a positive impact on the environment are eligible to be nominated in three categories: youth, individual or group/business.

Your part is simple: Think of someone whose efforts deserve to be acknowledged and submit their name and a bit of information about them on a nomination form, which can be downloaded from the web.

Then submit that form at any of several locations listed in the story on page 6.

The winners will be announced on June 11 at Fort Langley National Historic Site, where they will receive the honour of having a heritage apple tree planted in their name, accompanied by a bronze plaque.

As well, TD Canada Trust will donate $500 to the environmental organization of each winner’s choice ( for a total of $1,500) to help those groups as they continue to don their metaphorical capes and carry out the important work of being super heroes for the environment.

He has already decided that he will retire from teaching — Brown is a PE instructor at Brookswood — in June.

He is a part-time teacher these days as he finds it difficult to stand for long periods of time because has no feeling in his right foot.

The surgeon has told him it is not likely to return as it is a result of a broken disc in his back.

But there is no way he won’t be back coaching, whether it is at Brookswood, another school, or a club team.

“I told the kids one time, I am never going to stop coaching so you are going to have to be prepared for me to have the big one (heart attack) on the floor,” Brown joked, adding that he even brought out CPR dummies for the players to practice their resuscitation skills.

And while people may think his players are in fear of this man, their response shows otherwise.

“One of the kids said (if it happened), they would have a shooting contest and the loser would have to do it,” he said.

The thought of that happening brought a rare smile to his face.

Hall remembered for support of Terry Fox Run We all have a right to clean water

Editor: On behalf of the organizing committee for the annual Langley City Terry Fox Run, I would like to extend our deepest condolences to the family, friends and colleagues of the late City Councillor Dave Hall.

He will be greatly missed by so many and, in particular, for his support and participation in the annual Terry Fox Run. I know that despite his own personal battle with cancer, he participated in last year’s run with a smile on his face.

I, along with the organizing committee members will strive to keep this annual event a reality and encourage the community to honour Dave’s memory by DAVE making this year’s run HALL on Sept. 18 a very special one.

We are grateful to have had him champion our cause for so many years, helping to keep Terry’s dream of finding a cure for cancer alive.

To quote Terry Fox in 1980: “Even though I’m not running anymore, we still have to try to find a cure for cancer. Other people should go ahead and try to do their own thing now.” Even though Dave won’t be running this year, we all will carry on.

CHAIR, TERRY FOX RUN ORGANIZING COMMITTEE

Participants lined up for the start of the 2015 Terry Fox Run in Langley City last September. Marg McGuire-Grout, chair of the run’s organizing committee, acknowledged the support shown for the event by the late Dave Hall.

Liberal tax initiatives disappointing to writer Editor: “No man is good enough to govern another man without the other’s consent” — Abraham Lincoln.

Many of us received Mark Warawa’s (MP Langley-Aldergrove) tax guide this week, which was full of useful information for helping individuals and families take of advantage of tax initiatives available to Canadians.

I was surprised to discover three areas in which the new Liberal federal government has decreased tax savings for Canadian families: Tax-Free Savings Accounts (TFSAs) — annual contribution limit will be reduced from $10,000 per year to $5,500 per year; Family Tax Cut will be repealed; Universal Child Care Benefit will be repealed.

I am disappointed in these initiatives of the Liberal government, which only serve to lessen the ability of individuals and families to support themselves with their hard-earned income.

Does Mr. Trudeau think we consented to that?

SUSAN HITCHMAN, LANGLEY

Editor: March 22 was World Water Day, and I believe that water is the most important Earth resource other than clean air.

I also believe that one of the most powerful ways to protect our water is through legislation, but those laws must apply to all people and businesses if we want to see real change.

I have the strong feeling that this is the critical time for government to take action.

Canada has a new leader who loves the environment.

It’s time for the federal government to implement the right to clean water in Canada by passing an environmental bill of rights that respects, protects and fulfills our right to a healthy environment, including the right to clean water.

KIM BUCHOLTZ, ALDERGROVE

Rash of thefts in Brookswood not work of hardened criminals Editor: My car has been broken into again. It is the sixth time my property has been vandalized since I moved here.

This kind of thing is a regular occurrence here in Brookswood—a quiet neighbourhood without the crack houses and growops of other residential areas, but a hotbed for what the RCMP call ‘crimes of opportunity’.

This means that about two or three o’clock in the morning, petty thieves skulk

through the neighbourhood looking into cars, carports, sheds etc. for anything they can steal. Presumably to trade for drugs or because, to their moronic little brains, it looks pretty.

Oh, I didn’t lose much of value, a small red flashlight, a pair of binoculars I use at the races, a black and yellow plastic toolbox with some automotive tools.

The sort of stuff you probably keep in your own car.

These aren’t hardened criminals — those guys are out to boost the serious stuff. No, these are kids belonging to your readers and are wandering the streets smoking pot or drinking beer in the local schoolyard. Most parents won’t see it that way of course.

“Not in Brookswood! Not our kids!”

Well, folks, if you see your kids playing with a new CD player (or perhaps one of the above mentioned items) that you

didn’t pay for, ask if they have receipt for it. Chances are if they can’t explain it, it’s stolen — either by them or one of their friends.

Hard words I know, but isn’t asking these questions part of parental authority?

Thank you for allowing me to say my piece. Maybe I’m just venting—or maybe I’m right.

You & The Law Death of winery founder

PRESENTS Can you move the kids after divorce?

You badly want to move back to Ontario with the kids, where you were raised and the rest of your large family lives.

Your husband objects, leading to your marriage breaking up. Like you have all along, you both co-parent the kids in the roughly two years it takes for your divorce to be sorted out.

Should you be able to move with the kids?

Our B.C. appeal court recently re-visited this thorny “mobility” question.

Hong Kong-born Cindy (names changed) came to Toronto with her Chinese family when she was four. She moved to Vancouver in 1998 after becoming a vet, and met her future husband Todd the following year. In 2000 she joined him in Victoria where he lived and worked, and they got married in 2002.

They had two children, Adam and Ellen, but after some nine and a half years of marriage, they split up over Cindy’s wish to move the family to Toronto.

Cindy went to court for a divorce and permission to move with the kids.

The key question in these mobility cases is always whether a move would be in the best interests of the children. The court looked at the various factors that have to be balanced to decide this. It stressed that each family situation needs to be treated individually.

Here, both children had an excellent relationship with Cindy and Todd, who were loving parents, and wanted to stay with both. A psychological evaluation suggested what was best for the children going forward was both parents continuing to look after them, either in Victoria or in Toronto (if both parents moved there).

Cindy argued that her moving and taking the kids was best for them – they could be closer to her extended family and benefit from more exposure to their Chinese cultural heritage.

But the court decided that, in the particular circumstances here, it was more important that Cindy and Todd continue to co-parent the kids.

One significant element was that Adam had fallen ill at 18 months and developed learning and other difficulties.

He was diagnosed as hyper-active with attention deficits and also had nonspecific communication disorder. But with a special individual education plan in school, he was making progress and could now just meet his minimum grade level standards. He was well-liked by his classmates. The disruption of moving him to a whole new environment would set him back more than other kids.

Also, Cindy could pursue her work equally well in Toronto or Victoria, but Todd couldn’t. He had worked his way up in one company over 20 years and now held an executive position there, though he didn’t have corresponding academic credentials. Unlike Cindy, if he moved to Toronto to be near the kids, a similar position was likely out of reach, so he might not be able to provide as well for the kids.

The court concluded that being co-parented in Victoria was best for the children in this case.

an wine.

Their success inspired many others, both in the Fraser Valley, on Vancouver Island and in the Okanagan.

The superb bistro at Domaine de Chaberton proved that pairing good food with good wines produced at the winery premises was a winning concept, and that wine and other forms of agri-tourism were a new and successful way to bring in significantly more dollars to the agricultural sector.

Other wineries followed their lead and opened in Langley. In addition, longstanding farms such as Krause Berry Farms and JD Turkey Farms, operated by current Langley Township Mayor Jack Froese, his wife Debbie and their family, began to pursue ways to attract people to their farms and highlight their products.

Other existing farm operations, such as Aldor Acres and numerous Christmas tree farms, found new ways to bring in customers and turn a visit to a Langley farm into a tourism experience for all ages – and to add to the farm’s bottom line.

This increase in agri-tourism also benefited agricultural-related businesses such as Otter Co-op and other local businesses.

It spawned wine passport and other tourism and marketing programs, and drew people from the urban areas of Metro Vancouver to rural Langley in increasing numbers.

Filling out census will help shape Township – mayor Every five years, Statistics Canada conducts a census to collect demographic information on every person living in the county and Canadians who are abroad.

While the census is a national undertaking, its results can be felt very close to home.

Township Mayor Jack Froese encourages all residents to participate in the census this May. “The data collected is extremely valuable, as it plays a major role in creating our community’s future. This information is used to plan for and provide the vital programs and infrastructure that our residents depend on,” Froese said.

“Having reliable, upto-date information about our population directly impacts planning for services such as police and fire protection, public transit, housing, roads, hospitals, schools, and child care.”

A statistical portrait of the country and its people, the census is

used by governments, businesses, and organizations to guide decisions for the future. The population estimates gathered through the census are used to allocate

you will help shape Langley Township’s future.”

Statistics Canada will be hiring 35,000 people from across the country from March to July to help collect

census information.

Job opportunities will be available locally for those interested in temporary, part-time work.

The Census of Agriculture will also take

place in May of 2016, to collect information from agricultural operators who intend to sell at least one agricultural product.

The successes experienced by the pioneers of agri-tourism inspired others and the shape and variety of agriculture in Langley changed dramatically.

Events such as the Fort Langley Cranberry Festival brought in thousands of tourists. The Langley Farmers Market opened other possibilities for the farm sector, and served to connect farmers with the ultimate consumers of their produce.

A pebble tossed into a pond creates a ripple effect. Claude and Inge Violet were at the forefront of a significant revolution in Langley’s agricultural economy, one that has also changed agriculture in many other parts of B.C. It is important to remember and salute their significant contribution.

They made Langley a much richer place in so many ways.

Home Church will mark Holy Week with unique ‘service of shadows’ Tenebrae, with its roots in 4th century, was comprised of three services in three days LIL I AN N E F U L L E R Ti i m e s Co n t r i b u t o r

While most churches are planning Good Friday services, Home Church Langley is planning something different for Holy Week.

Instead, the church is hosting a Tenebrae service or a ‘service of shadows’.

Tenebrae is far less common in today’s churches but is becoming increasingly popular.

Tenebrae has its origins in the 4th century and was originally comprised of three services over three days (Holy Thursday, Good Friday and Holy Saturday) with the principal ceremony being held on Holy Thursday.

This somber ceremony includes the gradual extinguishing of candles following the reading of various scrip-

tures.

Its purpose is to remember the emotional aspects of Christ’s Passion — His betrayal, abandonment and the agony of Gethsemane — and ultimately, His sufferings on Good Friday.

While Home Church Langley will put its unique stamp on Tenebrae, it will contain some traditional elements as well.

Movements, or segments will include the recitation of traditional Bible passages and various readings that relate the Passion story from all four gospels.

The candles lit at the beginning of the service will be put out after each movement until finally all of them have been extinguished.

The congregation is left in darkness.

Premier backs Green bill on sexual assault

All tours are high energy.

Get a new perspective on power at the Powerhouse at Stave Falls.

Premier Christy Clark is supporting a call by Green Party leader Andrew Weaver for B.C. universities to develop policies to help prevent sexual assaults. likely that legislation can be prepared and passed this spring, but she agrees the problem of sexual assault on campuses is an urgent priority and the advanced education ministry is working on it.

“Sexual assault on campus is a cultural problem,” Clark said. “So yes, we have to help and support women if they are attacked. But we have to change the culture so it doesn’t happen.

“It’s like anti-bullying programs in schools.

We focus on changing the culture of schools so the school rewards kindness rather than meanness.”

Assisted living rules relaxed TOM FLETCH E R Bl ack Pre s s

Assisted living facilities in B.C. will soon be able to offer more services to seniors and disabled people to stay independent longer.

Health Minister Terry Lake introduced changes Monday that restrict assisted living providers to two of six prescribed services. Patients requiring more than two are now required to find space in residential care.

The change removes “arbitrary barriers” that have forced B.C. residents into higher-cost and more restrictive residential care before they need it, said B.C. Seniors Advocate Isobel Mackenzie.

“Assisted living is a very important housing option for about 22,000 seniors in this province,” Mackenzie said.

“These are your own unit, usually in an apartment-like setting where you can lock the door.

You decide who comes in and who you want to keep out, and you’re free to come and go as you wish.”

Daniel Fontaine, CEO of the B.C. Care Providers Association, said the change will be welcomed by seniors who want to stay as independent as possible. The association represents 300 non-profit and for-profit operators of residential care, assisted living and home care services.

Designated services, of which only two can currently be provided in assisted living, are: • assistance with eating, dressing, personal hygiene and other daily activities • medication management • therapeutic diets • financial management • intensive rehabilitation therapy • behavioural management

Premier Christy Clark voiced support last week for Green Party leader Andrew Weaver’s call for university policies to prevent sexual assault.

Weaver told the legislature that a Thompson Rivers University student was recently assaulted twice in one term, and was told “maybe you would be better suited to a different school.”

A University of Victoria student described a recent university investigation of her sexual assault complaint as having left her feeling “completely invalidated and silenced,” Weaver said.

A male UVic student was arrested in late February and charged with five counts of sexual assault after a series of attacks in recent months.

Weaver’s bill would require colleges and universities to develop policies to educate students and prevent sexual assault as well as support people who are assaulted on campus.

Reconciliation told through art Langley Meadows student wins trip to Rideau Hall for insightful poster on healing from residential schools MONIQUE TAMMINGA Times Reporter

Josiah Ferguson may only be eight years old but his vision for reconciliation demonstrates wisdom beyond his years.

A poster he created about healing from the damage done by residential schools — with a focus on kindness and friendship — won him a visit to Canada’s capital.

The Langley Meadows Elementary student, was one of 10 recipients of “Imagine a Canada,” a national art initiative that asked young people to share their thoughts on what the future of Canada will look like through the lens of reconciliation.

The Fergusons attended a ceremony for the winners at Rideau Hall in Ottawa on March 1.

Josiah created the poster in his class after they learned about the history of residential schools.

“The two hands mean Aboriginals and Canadians reaching out to each other in friendship and acceptance,” he explained.

“When our hands connect in friendship and peace, then our hearts can be filled with kindness and love.”

He learned about how Aboriginal children were taken from their parents to residential schools far away.

He learned that the goal of the government was to take away their culture and language.

“If the boys had long hair, which was an important symbol for their people, they had to cut it off,” he said.

Brothers and sisters couldn’t play together.

“This made me sad,” he added.

Josiah’s dad, Danny, said his son has taught their family a lot about residential schools that they didn’t learn when they were students.

This year, the provincial government made it mandatory to include Aboriginal history and culture in the B.C. curriculum.

“When you look at my art remember that we need to treat people properly — the way they were meant to be treated.

Make friends, be kind and be nice,” said Josiah.

To attend the ceremony, Josiah took his first plane ride to Ottawa, where he was honoured at the Governor General’s residence, Rideau Hall.

Josiah and his family met the Governor General and were shown around.

“We went to the Wabano Centre and on the tour I got to learn all about how the Aboriginal people are working to be healed from the past,” he said of his trip.

“I even saw a brick from one of the residential schools they keep there to remember some of the kids that died at the schools and never got to see their families again.

That made me real sad.”

He also got to meet other kids and talk about how to make the future better for Aboriginals and

all Canadians.

The students’ art will be put on display at the National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation at the University of Manitoba.

Some of the top names to emerge from B.C.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s country music industry will be honoured in Langley next month when the B.C. Country Music Association brings its Hall of Fame show to Cascades Casino.

Now in its 30th year, the Hall of Fame is welcoming in 11 new inductees: Red Robinson, Ray Ramsay, Denny Eddy, Laurie Thain, Mike Norman, Farmerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Daughter, Gerry Leiske, Tammy Ray, Redd Volkaert, John McLaughlin and Ron Sanders. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re legends,â&#x20AC;? said Linda Corscadden, vice president of BCCMA. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s years put into the country music industry so we like to reward them. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not just artists, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s behind the scenes industry folks as well. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The industry folk donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get the recognition they need as much as the artists do.â&#x20AC;?

The inductees are hand-selected by a panel of BCCMA members, based on their impact to B.C.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s country music industry.

Their focus is hyper-local. To be considered for the award, music makers must have worked in B.C. for many years, or have started their career in B.C. before venturing to larger markets, Corscadden said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have the artists we have no music. If we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have music, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pretty lonely out there. Music is healing to the soul, I think, and I think thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a big part of it for sure,â&#x20AC;? she said.

This yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s show, which is happening April 10, is featuring

The 1990s trio Farmerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Daughter is one of 11 to be inducted into the B.C. Country Music Hall of Fame this year. The group has won several BBMA Awards, Canadian Country Music Awards and a Juno Award for their music. They will be playing a medley of songs at the awards show being held in Langley on April. 10. performances by Denny Eddy, Laurie Thain, Tammy Ray and Jess Lee, a special medley sung

by Farmerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Daughter and a musical tribute to the late Mike Norman, who wrote or cowrote many hit songs for local artists. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m just excited, I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a big reunion with this group that we have this year, because a lot of them have worked together closely for many years,â&#x20AC;?

Corscadden said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everybody knows everybody,

and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a big family. So when we do any type of show â&#x20AC;&#x201D; whether itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s our Hall of Fame or our awards show â&#x20AC;&#x201D; every year is a big reunion. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pretty cool, I love it.â&#x20AC;?

The Hall of Fame show is being held at Cascade Casinoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Summit Theatre. Doors open at 1 p.m., show begins at 2 p.m.

Tickets are $25 (plus facility fee and service charges) and are available at Casino Guest Services at 604-530-2211 and online at www.ticketweb.ca.

Thanks Bruce

I have a young family, a husband and three kids and my life is very complex. I needed choice, customization and spending a lot of money on glasses was something I couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t justify. My Great Glasses experience was awesome. I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need an appointment for my eye test and I got three pairs of glasses for less than I paid for one pair at my regular optometrist. I couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t believe how great the deal was and how accommodating the staff were to me. I will not buy glasses anywhere but Great Glasses in the future.

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m so glad that Bruce was willing to fight for good customer value.

Crimes of the Heart

Babe Magrath has just shot her husband. She was aiming for his heart, but to her dismay, she got him in the stomach.

The Magrath women are once again making front page news in Hazlehurst, Miss., to the exasperation of their bossy cousin Chick. As the Magraths reunite to deal with their newest tragedy, their secrets start bubbling to the surface.

With as much humour as pathos, Crimes of the Heart weaves a beautiful portrait of three unconventional sisters and the love that unites them.

Directed by Laura McLean, the award-winning drama, featuring Langley actress Joanna Williams, begins March 30 at Little Mountain Gallery, 195 E 26 Ave. in Vancouver.

Presented by Bright Young Theatre, a creative team of all women, the play is considered one of the most nuanced and heart-wrenching depictions of sisterhood ever written for the stage.

Gender disparity onstage and off continues to be an issue today, and even more so when playwright Beth Henley created this play in 1980. The women seen in this play are flawed but powerful and refreshingly real.

Performances are being held March 30 to April 3 and April 8 to 10. Doors open at 6:30 p.m., play begins at 7 p.m. Tickets are $20 for adults, $15 for seniors and are available at the door, or online at http://crimesbyt.brownpapertickets.com.

Langley crowns Cup champs Crunch, Eagles, Wolves and Spartans victorious in respective divisions at annual Langley Cup hockey competition GARY AH U J A Ti m e s Re po r t e r

One loss helped turn the season around for the Langley LY3 Crunch.

It was during a tournament back in October and the Crunch lost in the semifinals.

“We played really well (in that loss) and those are the games that you can build from,” said coach Jamie Fiset. “I think it just helped focus us for the remainder of the year.”

Up until that point, the team was roughly a .500 squad, alternating wins and losses. But the Crunch caught fire, losing just two games the rest of the season.

They finished with a record of 317-1 and the last of those victories came on Sunday afternoon, a 7-1 win over the Langley LY7 Falcons.

The two teams were playing in the championship finals of the Langley Midget Cup at the George Preston Recreation Centre.

The Crunch scored three times in 65 seconds midway through the first period with Tyler Piluso, Nick Grant and Joey Yeomans each finding the back of the net.

Quinton Barwich made it 4-0 and after Ryan Barthelson made the score 4-1, Barwich and Colton Wellburn struck for goals 48 seconds apart to quash any comeback attempts.

Piluso had the lone goal of the third period.

Fiset said the goal at the start of the season was to make coming to the rink fun for the players. But along the way, the team found its game, resulting in a tournament win over Christmas in Abbotsford and then both the league and playoff banners for their division.

In the Cup playoffs, they beat Langley LY1 3-0 in the opener, edged Langley LY10 2-1 and then beat Langley LY7 9-5 in the semifinals.

The tournament is double knockout, so LY7 won their next game to get another crack at the Crunch.

••• Given another crack at the Langley LY6 Ice Dawgz, the Langley LY3 Eagles made the most of their second chance.

Two games earlier, the Ice Dawgz won 1-0 to advance straight to the finals of the Langley Bantam Cup. The Eagles, meanwhile, faced a must-win game in the double knockout format. And they delivered, defeating Langley LY6 by a 4-2 score to get one more chance at the Ice Dawgz and the Cup. And it was a different story the second time around with the Eagles soaring to the Cup victory thanks to a 2-0 victory on Sunday at the George Preston Recreation Centre.

Greg Song opened the scoring late in the second period and Trevor Young doubled the lead in the final minute before intermission. Both goals were set up by Colten Kenney.

And that was more than enough offence for the Eagles as Matthew Reeves picked up the shutout.

In fact, over the team’s five games at the Langley Cup, they only allowed a combined four goals — they won their opener 5-0, took game two 3-1, lost 1-0 to the Ice Dawgz and then bounced back with the 4-2 win to stay alive and closed things with the 2-0 shutout in the final.

“We have a really strong defence corps,” said coach Clark Kemp. “(And) a good defence leads to good offence; that is what we practice.”

As for what changed between their two meetings, Kemp said his team was ready for the Ice Dawgz in Sunday’s final.

“They clogged up the neutral zone on us and that kind of confused our guys,” Kemp said. “So for the next game, we knew what we had to do, which was get the puck in deep, get in and attack.

“We set the pace ourselves and everything fell into place.”

The victory capped off a great

season for the Eagles who also won all three tournaments they entered, as well as capturing the Pacific Coast Amateur Hockey Association banner as the Fraser Valley West playoff champs for the bantam C division.

Overall, the team finished with a 39-6-4 record.

••• When the Langley LY5 Wolves surrendered a pair of late goals to force overtime, it wasn’t much of a surprise nor was the team down on itself.

The Wolves were playing in the championship final of the Langley Atom Cup on Sunday morning at the George Preston Recreation Centre.

And up 4-2 with 5:31 to play, the team looked to be in good shape. But the Langley LY1 Ice Breakers got goals form Tevan Fournier and Hayden Hall less than a minute apart to force overtime.

“I think that we were OK,” said Wolves manager Kate Ezra on whether the team was down on itself after letting a late lead slip away.

“We have had a few games that we kind of let our guard down near the end of the game.

But we managed to rebound and get back into it.”

And Jakob Orekovic — an H4 initiation player who was called up to fill an empty roster spot for the game — capped off an incredible game as he scored the overtime winner. Orekovic had all five goals in the 5-4 win.

Another affiliate player, Theo Carmichael had a pair of assists while James Veerman, Jack Bouchard, Matthew Jeske and Ethan Harcourt had an assist apiece.

Hall scored twice for the Ice Breakers while Trenton Huber had the other goal.

This was the Wolves second overtime victory of the Cup playoffs.

They beat Langley LY5 4-3 in the opener, beat Langley LY4 8-1 and then beat Langley LY6 7-3 to advance to the final.

They also won a tournament back in December.

“A few ups and downs from

Christmas until the spring but we pulled it together when we needed to,” Ezra said. “It is the last tournament, you want to finish strong.

“The coaches did a good job motivating one game at a time and the kids pulled it together.”

••• The Langley LY1 Spartans got

a measure of revenge, defeating the team which cost them the playoff banner.

The Spartans scored a 3-1 victory over the Langley LY5 Eagles on Sunday in the championship final of the Langley Peewee Cup at the George Preston Recreation Centre.

Goals galore, but Stealth fall short again G ARY AH U J A Tim e s Re po r t e r

They hung with the champs for three quarters, but the Vancouver

Stealth had no answer for a seven-minute stretch to start the fourth quarter.

The visiting Sas-

katchewan Rush erupted for seven goals in 7:19 to send the home team to a 24-16 loss on Saturday night at the

Langley Events Centre.

The Stealth — who trailed the entire game — had cut the lead to 16-15 after three quarters before being overwhelmed at the beginning of the final period.

The 16 goals were a season-high for Vancouver.

“We want to forget the first seven minutes of that fourth quarter,” said coach Jamie Batley, who was making his debut behind the Stealth bench.

“Maybe we were going a little bit too hard and the guys got tired.

We were making tired mistakes, allowing picks and those kinds of things.

“Maybe we are a little bit out of shape, maybe we got a little bit tired. We will have to fix that.”

“Up to that point, the game got away from us,” he added. “Up to that point, I thought we played great.”

The Rush were dominant to start three of the four quarters.

They scored three goals in the opening 2:23 and then another three in the first 2:21 of the second quarter.

Each time, Vancouver would battle back, making it 7-6 after one quarter and then 14-10 at the half.

The third quarter was the lone period the Stealth controlled, outscoring Saskatchewan 5-2 over those 15 minutes.

The loss dropped Vancouver to 3-8 while Saskatchewan im-

“That is a good team over there on the other side and if you give them a chance, a couple of feet, they are going to find a way to score,” said the Stealth’s Joel McCready, who scored four goals in the first quarter and finished with five goals and eight points.

Despite the Stealth losing their fourth straight game, McCready is optimistic good things are around the corner.

“This team, we are

really close to everybody putting in a full 60. We have a lot of talent in that room and everybody still believes,” he said.

“We have seven games left and we have lots of time and we are going to get it done.”

“We have 20-something guys in that room and we are going to stick to it and get through it. We just have to get out there and bust it.”

The Stealth also got big games from Rhys Duch (six goals, 11 points), Corey Small

(two goals, eight points) and Jordan Durston (one goal, six points). Cliff Smith and Justin Salt had a goal apiece to round out the scoring.

Saskatchewan outshot Vancouver 67-50 and won the loose ball battle handily 82-53.

Jeff Moleski led the Stealth in that department with seven while Matt Beers, Tyler Hass and McCready came up with six apiece.

Vancouver is in Buffalo to face the East Division-leading Bandits (7-4) on Friday night.

Why Can’t We Talk About Vaginal Health?

Erectile dysfunction, prostate cancer and “dribbling” men – we are very comfortable talking about men’s health, but when it comes to women’s health issues we suddenly blush and become shy and reticent.

Abby Medical Laser Centre is proud to introduce FemiLift .

A non-invasive procedure for vaginal tightening and urinary incontinence reduction. To discuss your options, please call for a free consultation.

The fact is that many women experience vaginal laxity as they age and more than 90% of women who have had a vaginal delivery will have some level of vaginal trauma contributing to pain and/or decreased sexual enjoyment. At the other end of the spectrum many women entering their menopausal years will experience vaginal dryness and discomfort leading to sexual dysfunction.

The reality is that there are numerous non surgical options for women to enhance their vaginal health and prevent or treat many of these symptoms. However many women remain unaware of their options because this topic is just not discussed.

Pelvic floor physiotherapy has a lot to offer women wishing to avoid surgical options. Topical hormone therapy for vaginal dryness is grossly underused. The newest treatment is vaginal laser rejuvenation. This is a minimally invasive treatment that employs a laser to administer burst of energy to the vaginal tissue that results in your own body regenerating collagen tissue to improve vaginal health. Clinical studies have confirmed its efficacy at vaginal tightening for mild to moderate laxity, mild stress incontinence and vaginal atrophy in menopause and

these procedures, does not mean that there is no place for a woman who wishes to rejuvenate an organ no one wants to talk about.

also in vaginal atrophy that occurs in breast cancer survivors.

Newer treatments also involve the concomitant use of platelet rich plasma injections into the vaginal tissue to stimulate rejuvenation.

There are numerous newer alternative for women who wish to explore options for vaginal health enhancement. Detractors will argue that these techniques have no place in clinical practice. These same critics will ignore the blatant reality that patients chose to enhance many aspects of their anatomy like their breasts, noses and faces – and just because these have been done for years and there is a sense of “comfort” with

Spartans close season with Cup From Page 21

“We fell short in the playoffs, and I think once that happened, it refocused everybody on what our original goal was, which was to win the (Langley) Cup,” said Spartans coach Darcy Frederick.

“So we had a little extra motivation going in.”

Carsen Grim, Sean Wade and Brian Pol

each scored a goal while Daylen Peterson finished with a pair of helpers. Ethan Wardell also had an assist.

Luke Sommerville had the lone goal for the Eagles.

The Spartans entered the Cup playoffs as the top seed and then went 4-0 en route to the championship.

They beat Langley LY4 7-2 in the opener, edged Langley LY2

2-1 and then beat the Eagles 2-1 to advance straight to the final.

With the Cup format double knockout, the Eagles won their next game to earn another shot against the Spartans.

Frederick has coached some of his players for three years now, and they won the Langley Atom Cup in both 2014 and 2015 before graduating to

the peewee level.

“The goal at the start of every year is to win the Langley Cup, that is by the players, not by us,” Frederick said.

“We went out and worked very, very hard and the boys came out ready to play every single game.

“The boys played fantastic, they played their hearts out.”

The team finished with a record of 29-5-2.

It was not the ideal way to spend celebrating his 23rd birthday.

Leigh Goossen wasn’t able to eat anything and he figures he vomited a dozen times over the course of two days.

The 48 hours leading up to last Saturday (March 12) night, Goossen was confined to his bed, trying to conserve what little energy he had.

But come game time later that evening, there he was standing on the court with his Trinity Western men’s volleyball teammates as they went for the gold medal.

The Spartans were in Hamilton, Ont. where they faced the top-seed — and hometown team — McMaster Marauders with a national championship at stake.

“Coming into the final, I hadn’t eaten in two days,” said the six-foot-five middle blocker from Kelowna.

“So during the match, I was physically weak and emotionally drained. I was feeling very weak all around and that made it difficult for me to get into the game.”

Goossen was fine for the team’s quarter-final victory on Thursday but when he woke up the next morning, something was not right.

He still managed to play in

EISLER Keith

June 30, 1933 - March 12, 2016 Born in Regina Saskatchewan on June 30, 1933 and passed away suddenly on March 12, 2016.

A Service of Remembrance will take place at 1:00pm on April 2nd at First Memorial Funeral Chapel, 27555 31 Ave., Aldergrove.

EDWARDS Dean Anton It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Dean Anton Edwards - husband, father, brother and friend. Dean passed away peacefully on March 13, 2016 after a fierce battle with cancer. He was 56 years old. Dean was born on January 26, 1960 in Calgary, AB. He was the son of a forester, and grew up moving throughout BC., Alberta, Ontario, Washington and Oregon. He was a heavy duty mechanic for Coast Tractor and then founded Daequip Premium Excavator Attachments where he enjoyed working for the past 21 years.

Dean married Dawne (Cindrich) in 1997 in Maple Ridge, B.C. They were partners and best friends for almost 20 years. They shared two beautiful children, Sydney and Alex, who he loved to take on adventures. Dean enjoyed traveling, fishing, boating, restoring vintage cars, and spending time with family and friends. Every day was a gift to be grateful for, enjoyed and celebrated.

Dean is survived by: his beloved wife, Dawne; his cherished daughter, Sydney; his adored son, Alex; his brother and friend, Kelly (Fylis); wonderful nieces and nephews; and many cousins, aunties and uncles. He was preceded in death by both of his parents, Florence (Hamilton) and Denis Edwards. He was brilliant and full of fun and humour. He will be missed dearly by many.

Special thank-you’s to the lovely team at St. Paul’s palliative ward and to the dedicated doctors & nurses at The Canadian Cancer Society. You were all important people on Dean’s road to Shambala.

Thank you for taking such good care of him - we will always carry positive memories of you in our hearts. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations can be made online at Sydney and Alex’s “Langley Relay for Life” homepages or can be mailed to: The Canadian Cancer Society; Sydney and Alex Edwards; #202 - 20434 - 64th Avenue; Langley, BC; V2Y1N4. They would like to continue their fight to help end this terrible disease that has taken too many they love.

A Celebration of Life will be held at Langley Golf and Banquet Center, 21550 - 44th Avenue, Langley, B.C. on Friday, April 22, 2016. A service will be held at 1 pm, followed by the family greeting friends and relatives, and celebrating Dean’s beautiful life from 2 - 4 pm.
