Back in 2002, the homeless count was 18 people. Last year there was an estimated 362 people without a roof over their heads. What’s being done?

Experts offer some advice on home and garden projects. They expect basement renos to be very big for 2016.

Try our new fun weekly contest and win gift certificates from one of three local businesses.

ADVANCE POLL

Should the federal government be running deficits?

The candidate who received the fewest votes in February’s Langley City council byelection says she plans to launch a court challenge of the results.

Serena Oh received 57 votes, the least of any of the nine candidates and well behind the 740 received by the winner.

In the Feb. 27 byelection, Nathan Pachal won with 740 of the 2,074 votes cast. Kiernan Hillan took the bulk of the remaining votes with 557.

Oh believes that she received a minimum of 1,500 votes, which would amount to almost 75 per cent of all the votes cast.

“I won at least twice as many as Nathan,” Oh said.

Oh said the only way to prove fraud would be a post-election audit, and said she would request that ballots not be disposed of.

She said she would go to court over the election and would represent herself.

“Most judges, they don’t actually know the law, I find,” Oh commented.

At present, Oh said she is trying to gather signatures from people who will say they voted for her. She told the Langley Advance she has more than 57.

Oh said the election was “manipulated.”

Langley Advance files

Serena Oh, center, at an all candidates meeting before the Feb. 27 vote.

On the right is Nathan Pachal, the eventual winner of the byelection.

She is convinced that she had the support of numerous locals, and said she believes that people from business owners to clerks and cashiers to seniors to homeless people were backing her bid for City council.

City Mayor Ted Schaffer has spoken with Oh and does not believe she has shown evidence of problems with the byelection.

“I believe everything was done legally and above board,” Schaffer said. “I totally trust the staff and the system.”

According to a spokesperson for the province’s Ministry for Community, Sport, and Cultural Development, there are only three reasons to challenge an election. One of those is that

the Local Government Act rules were not followed, another is that there was vote buying, intimidation, or that people voting when not entitled.

The deadline for a recount has passed, and candidates have 30 days following the declaration of the results to launch an official challenge.

That would give Oh until April 1 to file in court. On Tuesday, Oh said she expected to file in the next few days.

Oh ran in the 2014 civic elections in Langley Township, against incumbent Mayor Jack Froese and former mayor Rick Green.

Oh took 1,255 votes, 5.7 per cent of the total cast.

Before running in the Township mayoral race, Oh, a former realtor, was in a lengthy court battle with the city of Burnaby.

Oh was ordered to remove a kitchen in a North Burnaby duplex, a violation of bylaws against secondary suites in that municipality.

Oh tried to defend herself to Burnaby city council in 2010, then repeatedly appealed the decision, representing herself in court.

After a B.C. Court of Appeal ruling against her, she tried to appeal to the Supreme Court of Canada, but the court declined to hear her case.

In another case, Oh was declared a vexatious litigant.

Vexatious litigation is a pattern of repeatedly launching lawsuits, usually frivolous or unwarranted.

After losing a case against Vancouver Korean Press, a small newspaper, Oh sued the lawyer who had represented the paper.

She alleged fraud and perjury by the lawyer, who in turn asked that Oh be declared a vexatious litigant.

A Court of Appeal judge found in favour of the lawyer and declared Oh a vexatious litigant, awarded the lawyer $5,000, and Oh was banned from starting any legal actions related to the lawyer or Vancouver Korean Press without the leave of a justice of the courts.

Court records show Oh has been involved in several other civil court cases over the years, many of them in small claims court.

EMERGENCY

Ball of fire consumes lumberyard Owners plan to rebuild after a massive fire.

…continued from A3

TROY LANDREVILLE tlandreville@langleyadvance.com

Three of Country Lumber’s owners stood at a safe distance, away from a twisted steel and charred remains of a warehouse as firefighters mopped up and doused hot spots late Saturday morning.

It was a restless morning for Ken Humphrey, Ron Haan, and Scott Rexworthy, who watched helplessly as a section of their beam yard at 252nd Street and Fraser Highway was enveloped in flames overnight.

“We don’t know how the fire started,” Humphrey told the Langley Advance.

“We just got a call at midnight saying it was fully engulfed.”

When he arrived, Humphrey saw “a ball of fire.”

Rexworthy said he felt “a little sick to my stomach” when he saw the fire.

“Heartbroken… but we’ll move forward,” he added.

“It’s all good.”

Between 80 and 90 Langley Township firefighters fought the blaze over

Light rail could bring new growth

Troy Landreville/Langley Advance

Langley Township firefighters walked past the charred metal and wood late Saturday morning, after a large fire destroyed a large portion of a warehouse at Country Lumber’s wholesale operation in Aldergrove. about 12 hours.

“The guys did a fantastic job containing the fire,” said district chief Pat Walker.

Every tanker in the Township fire department was in use, shuttling water to the fire, and firefighters threw up a water curtain to keep the intense heat away from the buildings to the east. They kept the fire from spreading, including to hay storage nearby.

The explosions heard during the fire were propane bottles attached to forklifts blowing up, Walker said.

The exact cause remains

unknown and probably will never be determined.

“It definitely started in the warehouse area, over by the chainsaw shop,” said Walker.

But the destruction was “so immense” that finding the exact starting point of the fire is likely impossible, Walker said.

Humphrey said the focus now is getting the business back up and operating.

“It is what it is,” he said.

“We can’t do much about it. We just want to get things up and running. We have employees who work Monday, we’ve got orders

to fill… that’s our goal, is to get up and running.”

Haan was confident the business’ engineered wood division will be operating on Monday “like normal.”

Country Lumber’s retail division is at 22538 Fraser Hwy. Its wholesale facility at 25284 Fraser Hwy. employs 25 people.

“It’ll be probably mid next week we’ll have everybody up and running,” Humphrey said.

Country Lumber is a family-run company that began in 1981 with two employees. It now has more than 90.

There are currently two transit rail proposals that have been vying for funding. Schaffer and other South of the Fraser mayors have been calling for funding for a Surrey Light Rail project, which would include a rail link from SkyTrain down Fraser Highway all the way to Langley City.

The other is the Broadway corridor in Vancouver, where a subway has been contemplated.

If the local light rail project is built, two stops in Langley City are planned – one at a lot near Innes Corners and the Cascades Casino, and another at the Willowbrook Shopping Centre.

Standing at Innes Corners earlier this week, Schaffer pointed out that under the City has already planned for growth in the area that could be driven by a rail link.

Any single-storey building in the area could be up for redevelopment, Schaffer said.

It is time for the South of the Fraser to get its rail expansion, the mayor said, after the creation of the Evergreen Line and other links to the north of the river.

With the federal government pledging up to 50 per cent of funding for transit projects, Schaffer said the money would be a “pretty good down payment to get things going.”

Both rail projects were to have been funded through the 0.5 per cent sales tax increase in Metro Vancouver, but last year’s referendum killed that plan. Since then, TransLink has not come forward with any concrete plans to add new rail lines or new transit capacity in the region.

Surrey has been trying to push the project forward, working to find funding with various partners.

Amarjit Sohi, the federal minister of infrastructure and communities, is scheduled to meet with the TransLink Mayors’ Council this week, Schaffer said.

“Once that plan comes out of draft form, we’ll have a plan of action which is always a good thing,” Holland said, adding that as the number of

homeless grows, the complexity of the situation increases.

The face of homelessness is changing, and now includes young people aging out of government care, as well as an aging population facing homelessness for the first time.

Holland said the challenges of a 70-year-old without shelter are quite different than a 45-year-old in a similar situation.

Outreach worker Fraser Holland has worked on the front lines, interacting with and assisting Langley’s homeless population since 2006.

Distracted drivers don’t notice road check A blitz targeted drivers using cellphones.

MATTHEW CLAXTON mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

The Langley RCMP nabbed a number of distracted drivers during a blitz on March 17 as part of

Distracted Driver’s Month.

Local Mounties set themselves up just south of 96th Avenue on 199 Street, where many cars head into Langley from Port Kells and the Golden Ears Bridge.

A spotter in plainclothes watched for drivers on the phone, texting, not wearing seatbelts, or commit-

ting other infractions, and radioed to uniformed officers stationed just around the curve of the road.

Drivers were then pulled over and a number were ticketed.

In one day, the officers gave out 38 violation tickets for distracted driving alone, said Cpl. Holly Largy, spokesperson for the Langley RCMP.

They also gave out another 18 tickets for not wearing a seatbelt, 15 for intersection violations, and 15 for other reasons.

“When you’re distracted, you react slower. You’re four times more likely to crash if you’re on the phone while driving,” Hilary Matheson, local road safety coordinator said in a press

release. “Focus on the road, not on your phone, and watch for pedestrians and cyclists.”

Largy noted that the cost of a distracted driving ticket is higher than the cost of a Bluetooth device.

Every year, on average, 81 people are killed in distracted driving incidents in the Lower Mainland.

End near for completion of water pipeline project MATTHEW CLAXTON mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

The behind-schedule East Langley Water Project is finally close to completion, according to Langley Township senior staff.

“We’re looking at days instead of weeks or months,” said Ramin Seifi, general manager of engineering for the Township.

The pipeline is to connect Aldergrove and Gloucester to Metro Vancouver’s water supply, freeing the system there from depending on numerous local wells.

Work was originally scheduled to be finished by the summer of 2014.

Seifi said that one small section of pipe, in the area around

248th Street, is still undergoing pressure testing. Once that is done, there will be a disinfection process as the pipeline is flushed with chlorinated water.

The exact day of the system being activated depends on how quickly the pressure testing goes, Seifi said.

The system has been plagued with delays, including seal

In 2015, leaking joints required that some pipes be replaced, and there were major issues east of 248th Street.

Deficits, but not forever

40 acres and pump Eighty Years Ago March 19, 1936

ˠ A mixed epidemic of measles, mumps, and chicken pox, plus a single case of small pox, had reduced Langley school attendance by 50 per cent, and many parents were appealing to the schol board to close the schools altogether. ˠ Forty acres of land, eight of them cleared, along with a partly furnished three-room house, fruit trees, a pump, and a barn, rented at $8 per month.

Odd Thoughts

here is an argument to be made for running deficits sometimes, and it was one the federal Liberals made during their successful election campaign.

Originally, the budget deficits were going to be about $10 billion annually, with a return to balanced budgets within three years.

Now we’re looking at almost $30 billion in budget deficits, and no return to balance until after the next election, when the balancing job may or may not be the Liberals’ to undertake.

There is nothing wrong with good debt. When people say the government should be run like a business, or budgeted like a household, they often ignore the fact that virtually every business, large and small, carries lines of credit, loans, and other forms of debt to finance its start and expansion. Households borrow for mortgages, cars, and education.

Good debt turns to bad when it becomes unsustainable, and when it is used to finance day to day expenses that should be covered by ordinary sources of revenue. That’s as true of a family or business as anywhere else. If you’re using your line of credit for clothes and groceries and the heating bill, things are going badly wrong.

The Liberals told us that they were investing in Canada, and so they see this as good debt, as debt that will pay off in infrastructure and healthier, wealthier Canadians. Ultimately, if it works, we should see money flow back to the federal government in savings on social programs like EI as well as increased tax revenue as Canadians find good jobs and firms grow.

It will take time to see what the return on investment will be. The press and opposition parties will have to keep an eye on that investment over the next few years.

– M.C.

“Bang! I gotcha!” you’d drop your gun (whether a stick or a shiny cap pistol), grab your arm and shout, “Ouch! You got me in the arm!” Then you’d take up your gun in your other hand, “wounded” arm limp at your side, and recommence firing.

Nobody died until it was nearly time to go home for supper. Or you wanted your little brother to wander off because all he was allowed to do was play dead for a couple of hours.

Today, the chief misunderstanding kids have about post-apocalypse worlds is that nearly everybody dies – or gets turned into a zombie – before the game even begins.

If 99.999 per cent of life on the planet is wiped out by a super-volcano eruption in Yellowstone Park, or by a solar flare, or a mutated virus, or whatever Hollywood scientists offer us next, you and I won’t be discussing survival tactics.

Thrift stores signal decay

Dear Editor, Langley City’s big race to the bottom.

From a single all candidates meeting, held in the middle of the day, in a location not accessible by TransLink, with a well stocked audience from the Township and more plants than the local garden center.

Where, even now one failed candidate roams the streets, with a petition, in a vain attempt of a recount.

The increased homeless population, who have made the “new” Tim Hortons

Homeless HQ. Where anytime day or night one doesn’t have to look far to see open drug dealing, screaming, and shouting at each other, or just at random air.

They sit on tables, sleep and or OD in booths.

Where groups of men and women crowd into bathrooms together, before leaving without even buying a corner of a Timbit.

Now, suddenly everyone is celebrating Langley becoming some sort of destination thrift, when they should be doing a

Let MPs free vote Dear Editor, Last week I heard that the Liberal Party will be whipping their members on the issue of euthanasia and assisted suicide when a government bill is voted on in the house.

I have serious concerns about this.

The members of Parliament should have the opportunity to vote their conscience. Members of Parliament should be able to have a free vote and not be told by the Liberal Party and Justin Trudeau how to vote.

I thought we lived in a democracy not a dictatorship.

Dean Clark, Langley

collective face palm.

Thrift is an animal bred to consume itself. There is no customer loyalty among thrifters. Lowest price wins!

In time the market will shake itself out. Some of the “for-profit stores” will disappear, but it is the charities who suffer until then.

Being a 55-year resident, I have watched the City evolve, and unless something changes the next big money maker will be printing signs that say FOR LEASE… Tim Attwood, Langley

Water laws for all Dear Editor, On March 22nd is 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 these strong feelings that this is the critical time for government to take action. Canada has a new leader, who loves the

environment.

This summer I am hiking the Lake Berg trail to spend time in one of our beautiful provincial parks to see incredible waterfalls made from glaciers.

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 fulfils our right to a healthy environment, including the right to clean water.

Mobile homes a seniors’ option Dear Editor, To: Triple A Seniors Housing Society I read with interest your article in the Langley Advance, page A3, March 17, regarding seniors housing.

Have you considered manufactured homes?

There are many manufactured home parks in the Lower Mainland.

In British Columbia there is over 26,000 manufactured homes.

It is a wonderful lifestyle and most important – affordable.

My husband and I moved into such a park 13 years ago, love it and would not even think of

moving.

We are not the “Trailer Park Boys” from T.V. We are communities of caring citizens who take pride in their homes and look after each other.

There are two types of manufactured home parks.

1. You buy the home and land, and pay maintenance fees for upkeep of the common ground.

2. You buy the home but rent the pad space which is more affordable for many seniors.

There are a number of parks in South Langley and White Rock area.

Nina Khodaei-Joopari

The front cover of March 17 related to this story. Apologies for its omission.

The home surrounded by police and investigated by a remote-controlled robot March 10 contained chemicals used to make methamphetamine, Langley RCMP say.

Through most of that Thursday morning, police blocked off 202A Street north of 72nd Avenue.

Police searched the home in the 7400 block of 202A with the assistance of the Clandestine Laboratory Enforcement and Response (CLEAR) team and the Explosives Disposal Unit.

Police were made aware of a collection of unknown chemicals at the residence, said Cpl. Holly Largy, spokesperson for the Langley RCMP. One man was taken into custody, but as of March 13 had not yet been charged.

The investigation is ongoing, Largy said, but she confirmed that Health Canada chemists had identified the chemicals inside.

All the hazardous materials were removed from the building, said Largy.

RCMP and Township fire department personnel were on scene to assist during the lengthy search, as were BC Ambulance paramedics as a precaution. Just before 10 a.m. the police robot was moved onto the property.

The area is south of R.E. Mountain Secondary and the road to the school was blocked off. As well pedestrians were not allowed through the area.

The community was also dealing with the aftermath of the previous night’s windstorm that caused many power outages and other problems. Power lines were down closer to R.E. Mountain and roads in front of the school were closed as repairs were done that morning.

Have you Thought about Selling?

If you're thinking of making a move within the next few months, there are two important things you need to know.

The first is the market value of your current property. That's the amount your home will likely sell for in today's market. When you know its market value, you'll have a better idea of how much money will be available to invest in a new home. The second is an overview of what's available on the market. Which of the homes currently available for sale meet your criteria with respect to the type of home, its special features (such as a big kitchen or pool), the neighbourhood, etc? How much are these homes selling for?

With those two pieces of information, you'll be able to make a better decision.

Make the Right Offer

You’ve shopped around and attended a few select viewings. Now you’ve found the home of your dreams. It’s yours – as long as you make the right offer!

So how do you make the right offer? That’s a very important question to consider.

If your offer is too low, you risk the seller turning you down. You may not get a chance to make a second offer, especially if there are already multiple offers for the property. If your offer is too high, you’ll leave thousands of dollars on the table... money that could have been used for other important things, like renovations or a family vacation.

So before deciding how much to offer for a home you want, we need to talk.

We will discuss what goes into a good offer and other ways to strengthen your offer, such as getting a pre-approved mortgage certificate, a pre-inspection and reviewing other pertinent documents.

Hiring the Right Movers

How do you select the best moving company for your needs?

• Ask for recommendations.

• Beware of fly-by-night operations. They may seem like a bargain, but you get what you pay for.

• Request a written estimate and contract. (Beware of movers that just give you a price over the phone.)

• Confirm they are covered by insurance, and clarify their policy regarding lost or broken items. Make sure you receive a copy of their insurance certificate.

Finally, always ask what circumstances would result in extra charges being applied. The number one complaint received about movers by the Better Business Bureau is unexpected extra charges.

FLOORING

Finding carpet that feels right Some does and don’t for selecting new pile.

C

arpets provide both practical and aesthetic appeal inside a home.

In winter, carpets help keep homes warm, and the right colour carpet can add to design schemes.

Carpeting remains a go-to flooring material in modern homes.

In fact, many homes offer a blend of both carpeting in some rooms and different flooring choices in others, hardwood, tile etc.

When choosing carpet, it is important that homeowners follow some guidelines to prolong a carpet’s longevity and maintain its style.

The following are some common carpeting dos and don’ts: DO consider the room’s purpose and foot traffic before shopping for carpeting.

Make a list of the attributes desired (ie. soundproofing, easy care, high pile) and present these to the salesperson, so he or she can help in making the best choice.

DON’T rush into flooring choices. Unlike paint colours, flooring materials are more permanent choices that are only updated every several years or more.

Weigh all options before diving in.

DO consider conservative colours and styles.

Neutral hues and patterns

Residents are wise to do their research before taking the plunge – at least when it comes to buying the right carpet for their home. will blend better with furniture options.

This means homeowners can change furniture out and still keep the existing carpeting, which complements any new pieces.

Also, if there’s a chance of sell the home in the near future, it’s important to keep in mind that buyers tend to look for a neutral colour scheme they can make their own.

DON’T skimp on underlay to save a few dollars on the carpet installation.

The carpeting needs a solid foundation to last and look its best.

Inadequate underlay can lead to extra and noticeable wear and tear. Invest in a good foundation for the carpeting, like firm, dense padding in high-traffic areas.

DO become knowledgeable about different carpet styles,

such as frieze, Berber, Saxony, textured, and more. This will help in making the most educated decision.

DON’T just buy on price.

Consider the professionalism and expertise of the staff responsible for carpet installation.

High-cost carpet may not look very good if it isn’t installed correctly.

DO stain-protect rugs and carpeting, which can help repel stains that would otherwise become permanent and can prolong the longevity of the flooring.

There are carpet companies that guarantee the stain can be removed, or they replace it.

DON’T forget to vacuum carpets frequently to prevent ground-in dirt and debris.

DO pick textured carpets to conceal footprints and vacuum track marks.

PROBLEM SOLVING

Stained ceilings often go unnoticed A simple coat of paint might not be enough.

M

any stains are instantly noticeable. But while a wine stain on a light-coloured carpet or a gravy stain on a white shirt tend to jump out right away, other stains sneak past our radars every day.

Ceiling stains are one type of stain that tend to go unnoticed for long time.

But ceiling stains can be unsightly, and some are even indicative of a larger problem, so it pays for homeowners to address stains on their ceilings, as soon as possible.

• Start with the source. Low kitchen ceilings tend to fall victim to oil stains, which are an unfortunate side effect of cooking.

But not all stains can be so easily traced to their origins.

Stains on the ceiling might signal bigger issues.

Some ceiling stains, such as those in bathrooms, may be a byproduct of mold, while others may be indicative of plumbing problems.

Identifying the source of a stain is often the first step toward eradicating it.

• Fix the problem.

Once it has been identified what’s causing the stain, fix it. The longer those problems are allowed to fester, the bigger they become.

Some water stains on ceilings result from cracks or joints

that have not been adequately sealed or caulked.

Reseal or recaulk any cracks suspected of leading to stains.

• Cover nearby furniture. If you find ceiling stains above living areas, then be sure to cover the furniture below with a tarp. No one wants to compound a ceiling stain problem by staining the furniture, as well.

• Remove the stains.

Different stains require different treatments.

A solution made of water and bleach may be effective at remov-

ing ceiling stains, but only apply such solutions on days when the windows can be opened to air out the house.

Larger stains may require the application of a stain blocker, which may need to be applied with a roller and brush.

No matter the stain, people need to leave time for the ceiling to dry before moving on.

• Cover the ceiling with primer. Once the ceiling has completely dried, homeowners can apply a stain-blocking primer to prevent future stains. Allow the primer ample time to dry.

• Apply a fresh coat of paint. After the primer has dried completely, the ceiling can be repainted.

Some paints may blend in even if only the affected areas of the ceiling is painted, but others will require a complete repainting of the ceiling.

An eye test will help determine how much work has to be done.

Basement renovations all the rage LEARN HOW

Tips for converting the downstairs into a fun or incomegenerating space.

L

angleyites, like many Canadians, continue to fuel remodelling spending across the country.

This trend is being driven by the upward growth in real estate prices, and the rising cost to trade up to a larger home.

No surprise, revamping basements are high on that list.

In fact, basement renos are expected to be a hot trend in 2016, as buyers look to maximize available living space rather than move, and as young buyers look to offset the cost of homeownership with potential income suites.

While finishing a basement can be a great alternative to moving – especially if a person loves the neighbourhood – there are some challenges homeowners must be aware of when tackling below-grade living spaces.

For instance, choosing the right products is vital to the comfort, safety and function of the new living area.

Look for products that help to maximize energy efficiency and protect against moisture, fire, and noise.

The top points to ensure a successful basement reno:

Adding insulation and soundproofing are keys to a successful basement renovation.

• Waterproof it. Check the interior foundation and floors to make sure there are no existing moisture issues, water damage, or mould problems. Address any issues before finishing the space and examine grading to ensure water runs away from the foundation.

• Insulation is key in making a basement feel comfortable, while keeping it safe and dry.

For the best results, install a rigid board insulation against the concrete foundation before studding the wall. Finish with a moisture-resistant and dimensionally stable insulation between the studs to protect against common issues such as

mould, mildew, and rot.

• Choose a functional design.

Draw out plans, carefully taking into consideration any low ceilings or small windows.

And, try to incorporate structural features, such as attractive wood beams, while keeping the space as open as possible.

• Don’t forget to soundproof it. Whether the newfound space will function as a home theatre, music room, home office, playroom, or suite it will benefit from quality acoustic insulation, so soundproofing is the ultimate solution to maximize a basement’s quiet and privacy.

• Consider fire safety. Since many basements are now being renovated as income suites, fire protection is also a vital consideration. Follow fire and building codes.

CONSTRUCTION

Build on success A Langley firm is up for multiple awards.

Langley’s Teragon Developments and Construction Inc. is a finalist in six categories in upcoming builders awards.

The 2016 Ovation Awards by the Greater Vancouver Home Builders’ Association will be presented April 23 at a gala ceremony in downtown Vancouver.

Terragon is nominated for: • Best renovated room, • Best exterior renovation, • Best renovation ($800,000 or more), • Best outdoor living space, • Excellence in innovation and sustainability in new residential construction, and • Excellence in

building science in new residential construction.

Teragon Developments was founded in 2001 by Lars Van Linge.

“In addition to creating great spaces, the Ovation Awards also spotlight industry leaders who are changing the way we think about housing,” said association CEO Bob de Wit. For more information go to www.ovationawards.ca.

I hate making hard-boiled eggs. I find it difficult to peel them without having huge chunks of the cooked white staying attached to the shell pieces. Also, they always have that “green ring” around the yolk. Are there any tricks to help me?

Janet C. Maple Ridge Dear Janet:

Firstly, when selecting eggs to boil, one wants to make sure they are choosing older eggs rather than the freshest ones. This is because over a period of time more air develops between the shell and the shell membrane, and thus making it easier to peel. Also try rolling the cooked egg on the counter with some gentle pressure to makes cracks all over the surface, and then peel under cool running water.

The “green ring” indicates a chemical reaction between the iron in the yolk and the sulfur in the white. This happens when the egg is either cooked too long, or at too high of a temperature. Try adjusting your cooking time and plunge them into an ice water bath immediately to stop the cooking process.

PET OF THE WEEK Tank is a dapper 5 month old mixed breed puppy. Judging by his looks, we guess he is a Presa Canario, German Shepherd mix. Tank is aptly named because at just 5 months old, he’s over 50 pounds! Tank is looking for a special home that has time for a puppy. He is going to require a lot of time and patience in his home in order to become a well behaved adult. He is keen on training and loves to work for his cookies! Tank is working on his house training and manners. A confident cat could be an option in his new life as well as the right dog. Tank is a lot of dog, so a home without small children is ideal. If you think that you are up for adventures with Tank, please call LAPS at the Patti Dale Animal Shelter and ask to speak to a trainer. No emails please.. 604-857-5055.

A local band makes a point of lauding women’s equality.

Local pop band and 2015 Langley’s Got Talent winners Her Brothers celebrated and reiterated Prime Minister Trudeau’s recent comments in New York at the UN Women event calling for gender equality.

Speaking in front of roughly 200 people, Trudeau said more men need to join the feminism movement and ensure pay equity, revamp paternal leave to include guaranteed time off and take steps to improve Canada’s record on violence against women, especially indigenous women.

“It’s really, really obvious that we should be standing up for women’s rights and trying to create more equal societies.

Like, duh,” he told the crowd on March 16, generating a round of applause.

Joshua, Gabe and Levi Penner, who make up the band Her Brothers (along with their dad, Jonathan on keyboards), were on their way back from a series of concerts in Alberta schools spreading a genderequal message when they happened upon Trudeau’s comments.

“Hey, that’s our message!”

Penner family

Tiana Penner is invited onstage at the concerts by Her Brothers, a Langley band made up of her brothers, including lead singer Gabe, Levi, Josh, and their dad, Jonathan. said lead singer Gabe Penner.

“As men, we are in a unique position to challenge each other to a higher standard in the way we view and treat women.”

The three brothers, taking inspiration from their little sister Tiana, released their debut album, She, early last year.

At every concert the band brings their little sister on stage

and honour her by singing a song to her.

Typically playing in schools, theatres, clubs and community events, the band has been known to ask about audience members’ sisters and mothers as a means of helping its equality message hit home.

“Together, let’s change the status quo,” said Teresa Penner,

the brothers’ mom and manager, in a press release. “Let’s make Canada and our world a better place by encouraging one half of humanity to stand up for the other half, for the benefit of all.”

All invited to the Fort’s Good Friday walk Large crowds are expected for the walk through Fort Langley.

TROY LANDREVILLE tlandreville@langleyadvance.com

A Christian tradition that each year draws hundreds to downtown Fort Langley on Good Friday will take place rain or shine March 25.

What’s still colloquially known as Stations of the Cross was changed a couple of years ago to Good Friday Walk: Stations of Holy Week.

This Good Friday’s service has broadened, becoming “Stations of Holy Week” – a recognition of both Palm Sunday and Easter Sunday in the opening and closing stations, respectively.

“The majority of the stations reflect events which occurred on Good Friday surrounding Jesus’ suffering and death,” explained Living Waters Church associate pastor Luke Knight,

the chief coordinator.

The walk is an interactive, moveable service through Fort Langley and includes a large wooden cross that is carried from station to station.

It starts from the Fort Langley Community Hall at 10 Langley Advance files a.m.

The outdoor service Good Friday Walk: Stations of Holy Week is sees participants walk- held every Good Friday in Fort Langley. ing to different locations in Fort Langley The walk lasts roughly 90 where there will be scripture minutes and at about 11:30 readings and songs. a.m., the group will arrive at Churches involved include the FLEFC building for a few Fort Langley Evangelical Free songs, and then into the gym Church (FLEFC), Living Waters for some hot cross buns and Church, Parish of St. George hot drinks.

Fort Langley Site, and Wagner Stations include: Hills Ministries.

• Fort Langley Community Hall – Glen Valley’s Wagner Hills, welcome and station one a faith-based recovery centre • Lee’s Market – stations two and for men, provides manpower, three sound equipment, and a trailer • Parish of St. George – station that is towed to each station, four and serves as a stage.

• Fort Langley Strip Mall – station five • Living Waters Church – station six • St. Andrew’s United Church – stations seven and eight • Fort Langley Cemetery – station nine • Fort Langley Evangelical Free Church – Station 10 and refreshments.

“As we read scripture, reflect and pray, we follow Jesus’ journey from Palm Sunday right through to Easter Sunday,” Knight elaborated.

“It carries with it sort of a sombre tone but it’s also a wonderful fellowship opportunity for like-minded believers in the community, even though they attend the different churches, to come together and visit,” noted FLEFC children’s ministry director Lindy Jankowiak.

A full digital guide of the walk will be available at fortlangleychurches.ca Thursday.

“We will also have paper copies available on Friday morning at the event,” Knight said.

COMMUNITY

CHARITY

Fire firm helps zap the public Time to bowl The annual bowl-a-thon will raise The Township has a defibrillator for community use.

RONDA PAYNE news@langleyadvance.com

Until recently, there were only six publicly accessible defibrillators in the Langleys. A lack of coverage was identified in the Township in the area around office complexes near Willowbrook.

Fortunately, local fire protection company Phoenix Fire identified the gap and jumped into action, according to Erin Patrick Williams, business development manager with Phoenix.

As part of the Heart and Stroke Foundation’s BC Public Access to Defibrillation program (PAD), Phoenix Fire bought an automated external defibrillator (AED) and donated it to the community. The new AED is stored at Phoenix Fire (which is at 20626 Mufford Cres.) and now serves a five-minute radius.

AEDs are portable, easyto-use devices to restart the heart and the PAD program works to have AEDs available in public places. If someone were to experience cardiac arrest, a call to 911 will identify the nearest device registered for public use with the program.

“They’ll call us or send someone who is along the way,” said Williams of how the AED at Phoenix Fire would be brought to the individual in trouble.

Not only can the public pick up the AED, but first responders nearby could take it where necessary as well.

Information about the PAD program can be found

Nicaraguan help

Langley resident and Burnaby firefighter Erik Vogel recently returned from Nicaragua as part of Operation Nicaragua, a program designed to help firefighters in the developing country be safer in their efforts to help their friends, neighbours, and countrymen in the case of fire.

It’s time to lace up and hit the lanes.

Big Brothers Big Sisters of Langley is hosting its 37th annual Bowl for Kids Sake on April 8 and 9.

Created to help in-need Langley kids, the event features prizes, snacks, and games as a means of raising money for the cause, and is sponsored by more than 20 companies.

Mary Reeves, execute director for BBBSL, said the event is a great way for the kids to have fun and hang out with their “big buddies.”

“There continues to be more need and fewer resources. We don’t get discouraged and try not to look at the overwhelming need, but instead focus on the ones who are being helped,” she said.

According to Reeves, comments such as, “I miss my big buddy so much between visits,” given by the kids makes everything worthwhile and keeps everyone going.

“If people just knew the background of some of the children who say these things. Our volunteers and services are really making a difference,” Reeves said.

The fundraiser is taking place at the Willowbrook Lanes, 6350 196th St. The theme is Good Sports and people are encouraged to dress as their favourite sports hero. Participants are asked to raise a minimum of $50 in pledges.

Sign up in advance. For more information, go to www.bbbslangley.com or call 604-530-5055.

INITIATION HOCKEY

Sportsplex tourney honours boy’s memory TROY LANDREVILLE tlandreville@langleyadvance.com

The Langley H2 Tigers (orange) played the Langley Hawks (in green) at the Langley Sportsplex on Saturday, during the 16th Annual Jordan Owens Memorial Initiation Hockey Tournament.

Jordan Owens’ greatest love was hockey, so it’s only fitting that an annual initiation hockey tournament in Walnut Grove honours his memory.

The 16th annual Jordan Owens Initiation Tournament was held March 18 to 22 at the Langley Sportsplex and drew 56 teams, including 26 Langley Minor Hockey Association squads, 30 from surrounding communities, and seven from outside the Lower Mainland.

The tournament is dedicated to the memory of Jordan Owens, who passed away July 8, 1999, after a long battle with cancer.

Over its previous 15 years, the tournament has raised more than $150,000 for the BC Children’s Hospital Foundation.

Meet the people ICBC doesn’t want you to meet.

Sharene D. Orstad Partner If you have been injured in a car accident, you may think ICBC will take care of you. However insurance companies have a vested interest in saving money and reducing costs, not paying you for your pain, loss or inconvenience.

Sharene has been a member of the DBM team for nearly two decades, working to protect the rights of personal injury victims. At the negotiating table or in court, Sharene will present your case in a manner that ICBC adjusters and lawyers will respect and understand.

LANGLEY OFFICE Suite 205, 19978 72nd Ave. Langley, BC V2Y 1R7 T: 604-534-2131 F: 604-939-7584
