Tuff Enough For Ya?

GA RY A HUJ A Langley Time s

A Walnut Grove Secondary student splashes down on a soapy slide during the school’s annual Tuff Wally competition, held at the school on Friday, April 8. The event is a fundraiser for the Terry Fox Foundation. It helped raise $6,600 for cancer research.

Crime in Langley City is on decline, new report says RCMP looks at five-year trend, finds encouraging news, Langley’s top cop tells council members DA N FERG USON Times R ep or ter

SUP T. M URRAY P OWE R

When Langley RCMP Supt. Murray Power took his first look at the latest report on crime trends in the City of Langley, he asked the analyst to run the numbers again, just in case there was an error.

The drop in aggravated assault and cases of assault causing bodily harm was huge at 45 per cent, and the Langley RCMP’s top

officer wanted to be sure.

There was no mistake, as it turned out.

The drop was real and it is part of a continuing decline of crime in the city, according to a new RCMP review presented by Power to city council on April 4.

The analysis from 2011 to 2015 shows almost all categories of crime have recorded double-digit drops.

That shows the perception of

crime in the City has been “misrepresented,” Power said.

“Langley City is trending in the right direction,” Power told council.

“It’s something you should be proud of.”

The exceptions to the downward trend are increases in auto theft and shoplifting.

Power said stolen vehicles are a Lower Mainland-wide problem that is, slowly, starting to ebb,

while shoplifting is up because there is more enforcement by the loss prevention officers employed by local stores.

“We prosecute what’s brought to us,” Power sad.

“We’re at the mercy of (the stores).”

Power said improvements in store surveillance video systems are producing sharper images that make it easier to identify suspects and get convictions.

Teacher disciplined for slapping students GARY AHUJA Times Reporter

A Langley teacher and basketball coach has been disciplined after it was determined he’d slapped students and players on their backs multiple times as a form of punishment.

The incidents occurred during the 2014/15 school year and involved Jonathan Charles Fast, who was coaching a Grade 8 boys basketball team.

According to a consent resolution agreement released by the Teacher Regulation Branch, the incidents involved three players on the team.

In December 2014, Student A left his

gym shoes behind after a basketball practice. Fast returned the shoes to the student the next day but also slapped the student in the face — albeit, “not super hard.” The student described the slap as a four out of a scale of 10 in terms of intensity.

There were two more incidents, which took place on Jan. 13, 2015.

Fast asked Student A and Student B to remove their shirts in front of their teammates after they admitted to having forgotten to pick up permission forms. The students each received a slap on their bare back with Fast saying “this is what you get when you forget a form.”

The slaps hurt the students and left visible marks. Fast admitted the only reason the boys were asked to take their shirts off was to make an example of them in front of their peers.

That same day, Student C told Fast he wanted to take a three-point shot and that if he missed, the coach could slap him on the back. He missed and Fast’s slap left red marks on the student.

The document also states that Fast had struck players on the previous year’s team on the back during practice if they missed free throws.

The Langley School District issued a letter of discipline on March 2, 2015 and

suspended him without pay from March 1, 2015 to June 30, 2015. He was also required to enroll in a mandatory boundaries course and after returning from suspension, was transferred to a different school within the district.

He completed the BCTF boundaries workshop on March 27, 2015. He is also participating in an ongoing peer support program.

The district also stated that should he return to coaching — he also coached rugby at his previous school — he must have another school district employee with him at all coaching events, including practices, for a period of three years.

Prolific offender arrested after botched crime spree Surrey man, 21, charged with robbery; accused of trying and failing twice to rob north Langley stores using replica handgun One of Langley RCMP’s more prolific offenders has been arrested and charged after a somewhat unsuccessful crime spree on April 7.

Police were called around 11:30 a.m. for an armed robbery at the Walnut Grove Market, where a man had entered the store, produced a handgun and demanded cash.

He wasn’t successful in getting any money and was seen fleeing in a white pickup truck, said police. Forty-five minutes later, a

second robbery was reported at the Husky in Fort Langley. Once again a handgun was produced, no money was obtained and the suspect was seen fleeing in a white pickup truck, said Langley RCMP Cpl. Holly Largy.

A Langley officer spotted the truck northbound in the 7200 block of 200 Street a short time later. It’s alleged the vehicle reached speeds in excess of 120km/h and at times veered into oncoming traffic.

The truck was later found aban-

doned north of 80 Avenue on 200 Street. Witnesses told officers they had seen the suspect run west and pointed out his hiding spot in some bushes.

Mitchell Guiel, age 21, of Surrey was arrested and police allege he was responsible for the two robberies.

A black replica handgun was recovered from the truck.

Guiel is facing numerous charges, including two counts of robbery. He has been held in custody and made a brief appear-

ance in court on Wednesday.

Police had help from members of Ridge Meadows RCMP, Integrated Police Dog Services and Emergency Response Team in “the apprehension of this dangerous suspect,” said Largy.

“This significant arrest was made possible due to a number of fortunate breaks, none of which would have happened without the initial observations of attentive witnesses,” said Langley RCMP Supt. Murray Power.

“With the timely and key infor-

mation being broadcast, a number of alert members teamed up with even more citizens to complete the apprehension with no one being harmed.

“The Langley RCMP thanks our witnesses for their awareness and timely sharing of some critical information. This was a win for everyone.

We continue to appreciate the importance of all our citizens and the vital role they play in any successes, especially around dynamic events such as these robberies.”

Cause of warehouse fire unknown Loss to Langley lumber company estimated at more than $4 million MONIQUE TAMMINGA Tim es Reporter

Fire investigators say the cause of a massive blaze that destroyed a warehouse at Country Lumber on March 18 will likely never be known.

“The destruction of the fire consumed any evidence of what started that fire,” said Pat Walker, Langley Township assistant fire chief.

“We know the point of origin was inside, but its cause is undetermined.

“It could have been a number of things, like electrical or a hot piece of machinery, we really couldn’t speculate.”

The fire broke out just before midnight inside the Langley warehouse on Fraser Highway near 252 Street. It took more than 80 firefighters several hours to put out the blaze.

Country Lumber used the building to store propane-powered forklifts and backup material.

Some of the 14 to 15 forklifts exploded, said Walker. All of the equipment was destroyed.

Also inside were lifts of engineered lumber and hardy plank.

C URT IS KR E KLA U Spe c ial to the Time s

Fire crews worked to extinguish a massive blaze that destroyed a warehouse filled with lumber and related equipment on March 18.

Losses from the fire amount to about $4.3 million.

The warehouse was constructed before building codes required sprinkler systems, and it is located in a part of Langley that does not have fire hydrants.

Walker said crews worked primarily to contain the fire and prevent it from spreading to other businesses in the area.

The lumber company has 25 employees. No one lost their jobs because of the fire, however. Instead the business set up portable offices for staff to work in.

Numerous businesses and community members stepped in to help. Country Lumber remained open for business the day after the fire.

Township seeks nominees for community planning team Langley Township is now taking applications for its Brookswood-Fernridge Community Planning Team.

Residents, property owners, business people, and representatives from organizations with an interest in the neighbourhood’s future, who would like to serve on a team that will help guide its development are invited to apply.

In January, Township council authorized a minor update to the Brookswood-Fernridge Community Plan for completion of undeveloped areas.

An extensive public engagement program will run throughout the process, which is anticipated to take about 18 months.

One of the first goals is to create a planning team that will be in place for the length of the planning process.

“People are very invested in plans for this community and have made it clear they want a say in its future,” said Township of Langley Mayor Jack Froese.

“We want to be sure the public is involved right from the start, every step of the way, as decisions are being made.”

We encourage people to get involved ... when it comes to BrookswoodFernridge’s future.

MAYOR JACK FROESE

Members of the Community Planning Team will help staff review materials and ideas, provide input and feedback, and report back to the community and their respective organizations.

Members will be asked to attend six to eight weekday evening meetings and workshops throughout the process, from approximately May 2016 to September 2017.

Nominations are currently being sought for up to 17 people, of whom at least 10 will live in Brookswood-Fernridge.

More details about the group’s anticipated make-up and application forms are available

online at tol.ca/brfrcpt, and on paper from the Township’s Civic Facility and the George Preston Recreation Centre.

The update process follows a new Public Engagement Strategy that was endorsed by Township council in March.

The strategy will be implemented over the next two years, and most of the actions outlined will be put in place this year to coincide with the Brookswood-Fernridge Community Plan update.

This is one of the Township’s first opportunities to see the recommendations put into action, said Froese.

“We encourage people to get involved and have their say and make a difference when it comes to Brookswood-Fernridge’s future.”

For more information, visit tol.ca/brfrcpt or email brfrcp@ tol.ca.

Forms must be submitted to the Township’s Legislative Services Department by mail, fax, at legservicesinfo@tol.ca, or in person at the Customer Service Counter. See this week’s Township Page ad for details. Deadline for submissions is Sunday, May 1.

Police have no leads in March 31 gunfire exchange in Willowbrook Multiple calls made to 911 as passengers in two vehicles shot at one another during rush hour in the heart of Langley’s shopping district MO N I Q U E TA M M I N G A Ti m e s Re po r t e r

Langley RCMP don’t have any new leads about an exchange of gunfire that took place during the busy rush hour near Willowbrook Shopping Centre on Thursday, March 31.

Langley RCMP received multiple 911 calls about people in vehicles shooting at each other in the 19600 block of the Langley Bypass just before 5 p.m.

An SUV swerved into a strip mall parking lot and then onto Landmark Way, where a blue Ford Escape was dumped, before its two occupants fled on foot.

The RCMP said there is no sign that anyone was injured and there have been no reports of anyone showing up at hospital that day with gunshot wounds.

The vehicle that got away is described as a dark-coloured sedan, which fled west into Surrey.

The Ford Escape that was dumped in the parking lot was a rental vehicle, police confirmed.

Given how busy the area was at the time, the situation was very dangerous and could have had a much worse outcome, said

police.

While gang activity and gunplay isn’t unheard of in Langley, this area hasn’t seen anywhere near the lev-

el of violence that Surrey has.

During the first three months of 2016, Surrey recorded 32 incidents of gunfire.

It’s been a three and a half months since José Figueroa got his first taste of freedom after spending two years in sanctuary at his Walnut Grove church.

Since then, Figueroa has spent his days with his wife and three kids, adapting to life without fear of being arrested by the Canadian Border Services Agency.

But the Langley City man’s struggles aren’t over yet.

Figueroa has been waiting for a work permit so he can return to his job and provide for his family.

When he was granted a ministerial exemption of his deportation order at the end of December, Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) indicated it would expedite the work

permit, saying it should take about 45 days.

Figueroa filed the required documents in early February but, still, no work permit has arrived.

“I really want to get back to work. I’ve tried to find out what the hold up is but I haven’t heard back,” said Figueroa.

Figueroa’s former employer, Roland Houle, president of Global Decking Systems, had been holding his position for him but can’t any longer.

“We were more than willing to hire him back. We’ve been holding the position for José, waiting for him to get his work permit,” said Houle.

“But now we are going into our busy season and we need to hire someone.”

Houle said Figueroa worked for him for almost three years

and he was pleased with his work. He was looking forward to having Figueroa to help with the workload.

Supporters of Figueroa have started a petition, backing his efforts to get a work permit and to finalize permanent residency status. The petition can be found on the We Are Jose Facebook page.

In the meantime, Figueroa is still fighting in federal court to have them formally recognize that he or the FMLN (the current government of El Salvador) is not on any Canadian list of terrorists. His affiliation with the FMLN, a group fighting the violent dictatorship in El Salvador during the civil war in the 1980s, was what caused the Canadian government to deport him after 16 years of living in Canada.

Compass cards being hacked JEF F N AGEL Bl ack Pre s s

TransLink admits a few fare evaders are getting through Compass fare gates without paying by using a smartphone app that makes expired Compass paper tickets valid again.

Officials say it has so far happened only about 25 times since December.

“We can see it as soon as it happens,” spokesman Chris Bryan said of the tech-savvy ticket tampering. “Right now we’re just monitoring the frequency of it. It’s been very low. We are continuing to monitor it closely. If we do see that increase we’ll have to act on it.”

He stressed it affects only the Compass paper tickets that that are dispensed as temporary fares at station vending machines — no vulnerabilities have been detected so far involving the Compass cards themselves.

A paper ticket manipulated by smartphone can be instantly detected by TransLink and it can be cancelled so it won’t work the next time the fraudster tries to tap it at a gate. Even if it’s not cancelled the ticket wouldn’t work for more than a day.

If Transit Police intercept perpetrators they could face a $173 fare evasion fine and potential criminal fraud charges.

“It is fraud, it is an offence to do what some people have done,” Bryan said, but added the overwhelming majority of passengers pay the correct fare.

Officers are equipped with mobile scanners to verify tickets in farepaid zones.

So far, some manipulated tickets have been cancelled but there have been no arrests.

Bryan said it would be an offence to either tamper with a Compass ticket or to use one to avoid paying fares.

The vulnerability with transit payment systems provided by Cubic Transportation Systems was first exposed in 2012, and similar hacks have been documented in U.S. cities where smartphones have been used to rewrite data on the chips embedded in tickets.

Bryan confirmed TransLink knew such hacks were likely to happen here too.

He said a technology solution is available to TransLink that could be considered if the problem becomes too large.

“There is a solution, it’s just a matter of measuring the costs versus the benefits,” Bryan said.

“Obviously there is an ability to manipulate this. For us it comes down to a cost-benefit analysis of what kind of impact it is having. Right now, it’s very minimal in terms of cost.”

No estimate has been provided on the cost of upgrading the system to thwart the smartphone hack.

The same type of fare ticket is used in numerous systems around the world.

“This is a lot of work to not pay a fare,” one local transit user said of the smartphone hack on Reddit, noting other fare evaders now cheat just by closely following behind paying riders as they pass through the gates.

Langley woman charged with kidnapping MONIQUE TAMMINGA Times Reporter

A 25-year-old Langley woman has been charged with kidnapping and unlawful confinement after a man ran into a store calling for help last month.

On March 28, Langley RCMP were called to a big box store on 64 Avenue, after a man ran inside, saying he had been kidnapped and needed help.

Two suspects were arrested a short

time later by members of the general duty section of the Langley RCMP, said spokesperson, Cpl. Holly Largy.

The victim sustained minor injuries during his ordeal, said police.

The Langley RCMP Serious Crime Unit took over the investigation. In the following days several search warrants were executed.

The incident is believed to have been targeted and related to an alleged un-

OPINION

Brenda Anderson | 604.514.6751 | newsroom@langleytimes.com

Burning issue Some time in the coming weeks newspapers in B.C. are going to publish a story about the number of fires burning in the province and how many of them were caused by humans.

Sadly, it’s an annual ritual. But however big or small the number of fires caused by humans is, it’s still too large.

Last year was one of the worst fire seasons the South Okanagan has seen since the Garnet Fire in 1994.

And still, we didn’t see the worst of it. The wildfire in Rock Creek destroyed more than 4,000 hectares of forest, 30 homes and 15 other buildings.

The 2015 wildfire season was the largest in Washington State history with more than a million acres burnt, including a massive complex just south of the border, which claimed the lives of two firefighters.

The fire season has already started for this year with blazes in Quesnel, Cawston and even a grass fire here at home in Penticton.

No one wants to see a repeat of last year’s fire season. It’s too early yet to say whether we’re going to be in the same drought conditions but given southern B.C.’s climate, fire is always a clear and present danger.

There isn’t much that can be done about fires started by lightning and other natural causes, but there is no reason for any fire to be traced back to a human cause.

A cigarette casually thrown out a window, a campfire not extinguished properly, playing with matches; all these activities and more can lead to untold devastation, putting not only the forests at risk, but property and lives, both civilians and the brave firefighters putting themselves in harm’s way to fight the fires.

Hopefully, the images of last year’s fires and the devastation caused by them are still seared into everyone’s memory.

Think of that before you do something that could lead to a tragic repeat of history.

But as rewarding as working with family is, there are challenges as well.

I worked in a family business for a few years and while we often celebrated our successes together we shared the gloom of the tough times as well. Problems at work came home to the kitchen table and problems at home found their way to the workplace. A family business is a lot like walking a tightrope, just don’t look down.

Someone always has to be there to open and close, so a family vacation is not really in the plans. If there is time to shut down, that is spent painting or fixing things.

Inventory is taken late at night or you come in early and meetings with accountants or suppliers are carried out on the fly from the edge of your cluttered desk because the customers are waiting and it always seems that special person arrives just when you are the busiest and an employee has phoned in sick.

Terry and Helene, well done, and thanks for sharing your family and your passion with the Langley community for so many successful years.

Flick the switch off, give that busy little train a rest and get your lives back on track.

At least that’s what McGregor says.

NDP supporters dream of world without petroleum Editor: I watched with great interest the NDP convention in Edmonton — a city that just happens to be centre of the Canadian oil industry. It was the one where they threw their leader under the bus in the hope that Bernie Sanders will miraculously leave the US election campaign and arrive here in the Great White North to take over leadership of the party.

Bernie would lead the party in the glorious signing of the leap manifesto and we would all go to bed with a sigh of relief that the world could be a better place.

I wonder how many of these good folks refused the use of petroleum-based products such as gasoline for their cars and kerosene for the jets to get them to and from the convention.

I can’t wait for the next convention in Winnipeg. The members that support the leap manifesto have just enough time to build solar powered cars, buses and planes to get them to the convention. I happen to have a set of plans to build methane gas bags for pig manure to drive engines, but alas, the engines needs dirty petroleum for lubrication.

The purest NDP-ers that have rejected the no-

A man walks his dog down a Langley trail. Letter writer Sandra Cameron says she’s noticed that many people are not picking up after their dogs, and warns it is creating a health risk for puppies that are not fully vaccinated.

Pick up after your pet Editor: Today, as we do most days recently, we took our threemonth-old puppy for a walk down the dike at Nathan Creek, on River Road in Glen Valley.

In the first quarter of our walk I counted over a dozen dog poops not picked up by owners.

This is why dogs are not allowed in many areas, because of irresponsible pet owners who do not

pick up after their dogs.

Our vet has also said it is a major health risk for puppies still going through their vaccinations.

The Township provides the bags and the disposal cans to put them in. Pick up after your pet. It’s the law, but also, it’s showing respect for your fellow pet owners.

tion of the world requiring petroleum can drive on hand sawed wooden wheels from trees that died peacefully of old age. Heaven forbid they drive on asphalt roads made from dirty petroleum.

Pork-belly shares should skyrocket as they lubricate the axles with pork lard every five miles like the pioneers of wagon trains crossing the prairies in the 1800s.

This will be the mother of all conventions. The supporters arriving tired and dusty after months of walking, peddling and driving on wooden wheels over dusty dirt roads to put the final nail in the coffin of the nasty petroleum industry and its pipelines, once and for all.

They will all join hands with Bernie and sing that the world is now a better place. Now, where do they find trees that died of old age in Manitoba, that are big enough to carve a new set of wheels to get home?

Alas, all is well in Bernieville and we all sleep in peacefully knowing that the manifesto has saved us and the world from use of nasty petroleum.

Better transportation network would help attract investment Editor: British Columbia should be attempting to impress the world by making its main economic engine — the Metro Vancouver region — hospitable and attractive to prospective corporate and individual investors.

Not replacing the George Massey tunnel, which for over 20 years has been obsolete and is outrageously lacking in vehicle capacity, will continue to have exactly the opposite effect.

Provincial and federal politicians and officials should be collaborating to expeditiously replace the tunnel with a bridge

that has sufficient vehicle and bicycle capacity to comfortably meet the region’s needs to at least 2060.

Another top priority for B.C. and federal government representatives should be identifying a legitimate “rapid transit” technology that must be used by the extensive commuter rail network that is proposed for Surrey and Langley — if it is to be eligible for federal/provincial funding.

The as-cheap-as-possible, human-driven “buses-on-rails (on already-over-crowded roadways)” technology that several of Surrey’s less far-sighted

politicians are recommending would automatically be disqualified by such a process.

For many years, when compared to most of Metro Vancouver’s 20 other member municipalities, the city of Vancouver has had a disproportionately enormous rapid transit infrastructure.

But, unlike geographically larger cities — such as Surrey and Langley — Vancouver has negligible available land to accommodate future population growth and industrial developments.

RODERICK V. LOUIS, WHITE ROCK

U.S. and Canada have lack of representation in common Editor: Re: Canada enjoys simpler, cleaner government than US (The Times, April 6).

I know how Canada works. I was born in this country and I also have lived in the United States.

We are two different governmental structures, but the fundamental likeness that is taking place in each of our countries is the lack of representation from our elected members.

Big business is controlling the United States and big business has a very large say in this country.

Free trade deals have undermined the industries that were here, which have now gone offshore because of cheaper labour and costs of material. Free trade was

established as a benefit for Canadians and it’s supposed to have been reflected in lower costs for Canadians and jobs — don’t see that.

What happened to representation?

Oil prices have skyrocketed at the pumps and oil is $35 to $40 a barrel.

Where are the lower costs of fuel at those pumps that reflects this? What happened to representation?

Costs of homes in Canada and in the Lower Mainland have skyrocketed out of control. Rents are unaffordable for low-income earners who have contributed their whole life to this country.

The next generation of Canadians are living on the streets and soon-to-be other

Canadians who lose their jobs to free trade and the market place, and inflation of the basics will find a curb to stand on. What happened to representation?

Food Banks are bigger than ever. Food costs are unspeakably high.

Children and families are going without.

There is a list that is as long as why people don’t vote.

Why do people give up on voting? There is no representation.

It’s not how the two countries are structured in their governments.

Give us back the country where you’re not indentured to the banks, where your life means more than making payments and jobs are there for our children.

Give us a country that has hope, not debt, and elected representatives that can speak for themselves instead of being whipped into a party line. Every four or five years we can vote in our governments — we who vote.

But, really, who are we voting in if representatives don’t represent the best for Canada in the air we breathe, the land we live on, our children’s and our own future, our jobs, our very lives that depend on very fundamental rights — life, equality, justice and our hope for a better life for all.

What happened to representation?

the Arthritis Society Mary Pack Award and was a finalist for the Township’s Eric Flowerdew award for volunteerism.

As someone who has had Fibromyalgia all her life, she expects to have bad days and good days on the road.

As part of the “Just One More Step” awareness walk, Young will be walking 1,100 km.

There are 17 walkers committed to make the whole trek, with many joining in from their respective towns, she said.

“We have walkers with chronic fatigue syndrome, even rheumatoid arthritis, Lyme disease, IBS, MS and depression to name a few,” she said. “It’s a really cool group of people, the team is wonderful.”

The other Langley nominee for the Women of Distinction awards has worked hard to help young people reach their full potential.

Mary Reeves, Executive Director of Big Brothers Big Sisters of Langley (BBBSL), has helped grow Big Brothers through her nine years at the helm of the agency.

Under Reeves’ leadership, BBBSL has risen to the top 10 per cent of BBBS member agencies, fulfilling its mission to provide young people with the highest quality, volunteer-based mentorship programs.

“It’s a real honour to be nominated, but I definitely didn’t get here on my own. This is a real team effort,” said Reeves about the BBBSL organization.

“By the end of 2016, there will be 400 children served in Langley this year,” Reeves said.

“Our programs are all about prevention. When we are in the schools doing programs there, it is teachers who have identified

Two Langley women have been nominated for a YWCA Women of Distinction award.

Cheryl Young, founder of the Fibromyalgia Well Spring Foundation and Mary Reeves, executive director of the Big Brothers Big Sisters of Langley are among 87 women from across Metro Vancouver who are being recognized for their contributions to their respective communities.

The 33rd annual YWCA Women of Distinction awards gala evening takes place on Wednesday, June 8 at the Vancouver Convention Centre.

Originally, Young was not scheduled to be in town to receive the award, should she be selected.

Young is leading the groundbreaking walk to Banff — a 40-day and 40-night trek from Langley to Banff to raise awareness about Fibromyalgia and other invisible illnesses.

This walk begins on May 24 at the Fibromyalgia thrift store in Langley City and passes through Aldergrove, Abbotsford on the way to Manning Park and beyond, ending in Banff.

“I’m very honoured to be nominated,” said Young. “We talked it over and decided it was important for me to be at the YWCA awards, so I’ve made arrangements for me to walk from Langley to Chilliwack, (from) where I will drive to the awards banquet,” said Young.

Once it is over she will catch up to the rest of the walkers, who will likely be in Penticton.

In 2006, Young founded the Fibromyalgia Well Spring Foundation, the first Canadian charity specifically designed to help individuals suffering from Fibromyalgia.

In 2009, the office and dropin centre moved from Young’s kitchen table to the foundation’s thrift shop in the City of Langley.

Young moderates four local support groups and manages Facebook pages and groups, which educate the community about the invisible disease.

She has previously received

children at risk.

“We are trying to get to kids before they spiral down the wrong path. I always look to the saying, ‘It is easier to support a child than fix an adult,” said Reeves.

Big Brothers Big Sisters offers three main programs. One is the traditional one-to-one matches between Bigs and Littles.

There is also an in-school mentoring program, which requires volunteers to spend one hour a week in an elementary school environment with their match. The in-school program, includes both an inter-generational aspect and teen mentors.

“We have 60 to 70 teens this year, which is just awesome,” Reeves said. “The teens are learning social responsibility and the kids have a mentor to look up to and learn from.”

There is also an after-school group program, which has been hugely successful in its three years of existence, thanks to funding from United Way. Reeves said the demand for BBBSL’s services has grown recently in Langley.

She is proud that her agency can offer all its programs because it has created sustainable funding.

“We are so fortunate in Langley to have such community support,” she said. There are several fundraisers each year, including a golf tournament and bowling.

Reeves’ vision has led BBBSL to build relationships and formalize partnerships with mayors and councils, MPs, businesses, public service organizations and schools.

While sitting on the Greater Langley Chamber of Commerce’s board of directors, she initiated its first non-profit committee, where she connected local organizations and led educational workshops.

Prior to working in Langley, she served as mayor of Abbotsford.

“I have been fortunate in my life that I have been in a position of influence to make a difference,” she said.

“That feels good.”

Mountain students help win $25K

GARY AH U J A Ti m e s Re po r t e r

The ingenuity and hard work of students at R.E. Mountain Secondary has paid off.

Students at the school found out on Wednesday afternoon that they had won the Staples Canada Superpower Your School Contest.

In collaboration with Earth Day Canada, the nationwide contest was held between Dec. 3 and Jan. 29 with nearly 630 students from across the country entering.

The schools submitted what initiatives they had implemented to help save the planet.

Out of all the submissions, 10 schools from across the country were selected as winners. Each receives $25,000 worth of new technology from Staples Canada.

The assembly was attended by Mountain’s Grade 9 students as well as members of the school’s Green Team and Aquaponics team.

The students believed they were at the assembly to learn they had been selected as a finalist.

Ranj Sehdev, the general manager of the Langley Staples store was on hand to make the announcement.

He cited the school’s recycling efforts, which include their composting system, water refilling

station, adopt a street program and their tree planting.

Since they began these programs, the projects have resulted in a significant decrease in the waste produced by the school.

Another area they excelled in was their establishment of the Green Conference, which unites Langley schools to discuss environmental issues.

And then there is the work of the aquaponics team.

Aquaponics is the creation of a small scale ecosystem in which fish feces provide fertilizer for plants, which are harvested for human consumption.

Requiring just over a cup of fish food every month, this 100 litre system has a substantial yield.

The food produced from this is then donated to a local food bank.

The idea for the aquaponics came from Grade 12 student Samantha Lee and her sister Jasmine, who is in Grade 10.

They were inspired by their dad, who has an aquaponics system in the family’s backyard.

“We thought we needed a new way to have a sustainable green way of agriculture,” explained Jasmine.

“The feces from the fish go up to the plants. And the plants filter out the (bacteria) and converts it

“It is not too difficult to do. We are not geniuses,” she said.

Another member of the team, Gurkeerat Chhina said the Green Team has been instrumental as well.

“The Green team has really been carrying the school with their programs.”

“We might do some of the more innovative things but they do the more traditional things,” said the Grade 12 student.

Choo Choo’s restaurant, on the one-way, closed its doors for good last week.

The iconic family-friendly restaurant, known for its train sets and hundreds of collectibles including the huge Snoopy flying in the plane overhead, was a favourite gathering spot for many over the years.

Owners and operators Terry and Helene Casuton have retired.

On their website it reads: “To all our valued friends and fans, Choo Choo’s is officially retired. We’d like to thank you all for the fun times, support and memories that our family has shared with yours over the last 24 years.”

many chemicals and toxins by either inhalation or by touch. We also tend to spend most of our time indoors causing us to breath in the same air all day.

Accumulation of these chemicals and toxins over time can have a negative effect on the body, causing inflammation, auto- immune conditions and many other chronic health issues. A good Cleanse/Detox helps the organs and cells eliminate these from the body more efficiently leaving us feeling more energized and fresh. First Cleanse by Renew Life is a 15 day, two part herbal Rav Dhaliwal LPN cleanse formulated specifically for the ‘first time’ or ‘sensitive’ cleanser.

Q: Do the teeth whitening products work that you can buy at the drugstore? Can you whiten your teeth too much?

A:

There are several products available on the market to whiten your teeth. They vary from gums, toothpastes, strips and even some home remedies such as swishing peroxide. Although, the main ingredient in most whitening products is a form of peroxide, I would recommend staying away from unproven home remedies.

As for the rest of the products, they do work in varying degrees. The amount of whitening you receive from the products depends on the concentration of the active ingredients in them. The strongest whitening products are the ones you receive in a dental clinic. This is why you can get your teeth drastically whiter in a single visit.

However, with higher concentrations you have to be more careful because you can damage or burn the gums.

That’s why a barrier is always placed on your gums before starting. The next strongest is usually the strips or whitening trays you apply at home. They also work really well but can take 1 or 2 weeks to get results. The lowest concentration is found in chewing gums and toothpastes. They work to remove surface stains on your teeth but if you’re expecting them to make a drastic change in the colour of your teeth then you might be disappointed. It is possible to whiten your teeth too much. This can lead to a chalky look to your teeth and/or increased sensitivity in your teeth. The good news is that these issues are reversible and can be resolved by simply stopping the use of the whitening products. A sensitive toothpaste can also be used to reverse the sensitivity.

Here are two approaches to consolidating debt: One is to take on more debt by consolidating balances into one loan. If this is a solution you feel may work for you, contact your bank to discuss what they will extend you.

If you want to consolidate debt, stop interest, and/or reduce the total balance, contact a government-licensed proposal administrator and insolvency trustee.

In Canada Licensed Insolvency Trustees are the only people legally empowered to assist you in binding your creditors via a debt settlement agreement called a consumer proposal. This is an option Canada Revenue Agency, ICBC and student loans will work with.

There are three parts to the recycling process: collection, manufacturing and buying.

These three components are so important to complete the process.

Collection - Don’t Send Recyclables to the Landfill In this phase, materials are separated from the waste stream and prepared to become raw materials. Different cities and municipalities have different systems for sorting and collection materials that can be recycled.

Manufacturing - Using Recycled Materials Instead of Virgin Raw Materials Recovering the materials is just the first step. There must also be a market for it companies that want the materials and are able to remanufacture them into consumer products.

Buying - “Close the Loop” by Buying Products with Recycled Content In order to make recycling economically viable, there must be a market for recycled products. If people buy them, companies will be encouraged to make them and the whole system works.

You can lose any amount of weight you want - that is not the issue. You want to lose 20lbs? 50lbs? 80lbs? Great. But don’t sabotage yourself by deciding you must have it done too soon. The most common mistake when setting weight loss and fitness goals Kathie Marshall Owner is mis-judging the time it will take to get to your goal.

At our studio in our goal setting sessions we give our clients 1 week per 1.5lbs. If your goal stretches over summer - add 4 weeks and if it stretches over Christmas time - add 2 weeks.

belongings would be covered as well as their actions, as Tenants policies contain Personal Legal Liability of usually $1 Million or higher. However, a legal suite does not constitute coverage for the suite. As a homeowner, it is critical that your insurance company is aware of how many suites or “families” are living in your home. Failure to declare multiple families could result in a denial of a claim, in which case you would be legally liable if the claim was a result of the usage of the undeclared suite. The best advise would be to always check with your own insurance company on their requirements. Every insurance policy contains clauses and exclusions which need to be understood to ensure that you will not be on the hook when a loss occurs.

Q I AM MIDDLE AGED AND FEELING LIKE MY HEARING IS FADED A A

A: Maybe you have thought about moving but the list of improvements you planned for your house haven’t been started yet. Well, it might be a good time to let go of those dreams and capitalize on the hot market that’s happening right now. Many believe that the biggest ROI.(Return On Investment) is made with a well-thought reno but in times like these that’s usually not the case. Listing your home at the right time, with a competitive price can net huge gains in this market. Gains that could far outweigh the ROI of home improvements- remember the investment on your reno is not just dollars, its also time.Valuable time. Call your Realtor now and start the process right. You want to list your home quickly and at the same time begin the search for your next one. Yes, its possible to do both with the right Realtor. Tick tock, Time’s a wasting....

BIT. SOMEONE HAD SUGGESTED I MIGHT HAVE WAX BUILD UP AND I SHOULD TRY EAR CANDLING. DOES THIS WORK?

Ear Wax could very well be the cause of your faded hearing. When we do a complete evaluation of your hearing the first thing we do is check your ears to see if there is a buildup of wax. If the ear canal if fully occluded or plugged then we will refer you on to your family physician for removal prior to the hearing evaluation. If you are suspicious that you have wax in your ears then it’s a great idea to have the wax removed prior to coming in for your evaluation. For wax removal we recommend that you see your family physician to have him or her remove the wax. Wax removal must be done in a safe manner to ensure that damage to the eardrum does not occur. Your family physician will be able to safely and effectively remove the wax and then use an otoscope to look in the ear to make sure the eardrum is healthy.

I have not had any experience myself with ear candling and therefore cannot comment on the effectiveness of this procedure.

Once the wax is removed we recommend that everyone over the age of 50 have their hearing evaluated. This will give us an idea of what your hearing is like and how to proceed in the future.

If you or someone you know is dealing with hearing loss please call EARS HEARING LANGLEY today at (604) 427-2828 to book your FREE Hearing Evaluation.

Premier baits NDP on trade deal

Premier compares NDP’s ‘Leap Manifesto’ to Donald Trump’s campaign against free trade in the U.S. TOM FLETCH E R Bl ack Pre s s

Premier Christy Clark proclaimed her government’s support for the Trans-Pacific Partnership Wednesday with a campaign-style event touting the benefits of removing tariffs on seafood and other B.C. exports.

Clark and International Trade Minister Teresa Wat released a letter to federal International Trade Minister Chrystia Freeland supporting the trade deal, signed by 80 B.C. businesses from food producers to aircraft and forest companies.

Clark wasted little time setting the political hook for the opposition NDP, whose federal wing debated the anti-trade “Leap Manifesto” at its convention in Alberta last weekend. She compared that to U.S. presidential candidate Donald Trump’s campaign

against trade deals.

“It’s an argument we’ve seen south of the border, and now it’s an argument that’s contaminated the Canadian political debate as well,” Clark said.

The B.C. Liberals then forced debate on a motion to support the TPP in the legislature. NDP leader John Horgan quoted sources including the CEO of Ford of Canada and a former CEO of Blackberry Canada saying the agreement is bad for the Canadian car and high-tech industries.

Horgan noted that federal hearings on the TPP are being held next week.

Freeland has signed the agreement on behalf of Canada, but it requires ratification by governments in Canada, the U.S., Mexico, Japan, Australia, New Zealand, Malaysia and other Pacific Rim countries before it takes effect.

The B.C. Chamber of Commerce says fish and seafood are currently subject to 15 per cent duty in Japan and Malaysia, up to 34 per cent in Vietnam and up to five per cent in New Zealand. Beef, fresh and frozen vegetables, fresh cherries and fresh and frozen blueberries also face tariffs in Asian countries that would be eliminated by the TPP.

Dog Licence Canvassers Needed

Community Arbour Day

Each year, the Langley Animal Protection Society (LAPS) launches a “Canvass of Convenience” from April until September to allow dog owners to comply with the dog licensing requirement by purchasing licences from the comfort of their own homes.

Join the 14th annual celebration that highlights the importance of trees and the urban forest. An annual Langley Township tradition, Community Arbour Day is held each year at a different location to celebrate Earth Day and showcase the many ways trees contribute to the environment and the wellbeing of the community.

Dog licences are the best way to get lost dogs home, and part of the revenue collected is retained by LAPS to care for the animals in its shelter.

To conduct the canvass, LAPS will be hiring six friendly, outgoing, and motivated canvassers to go door-to-door in the Township and City of Langley. Canvassers will work part-time on four- to six-month contracts and are compensated by the number of dog tags they sell.

Canvassers work an average of 12-18 hours per week, including some evenings and Saturdays.

Ideal candidates enjoy working independently, are organized, have excellent communication skills, and are motivated to make a difference while earning some extra income. LAPS will provide the training and necessary materials – canvassers provide their own vehicle and friendly personalities.

If this employment opportunity sounds right for you, email jenny.ramirez@lapsbc.ca with a brief description of your experience, skills, and why you should be a part of our team.

VACATION PROPERTY

NEW HOME DEVELOPMENT

What type of vacation home property is right for you?

By Nicolle Hodges When we hear the words “second home” or “vacation home,” the mind conjures images of a luxurious oasis on a remote piece of land far, far away from WiFi. But the dream of owning a getaway property is not reserved solely for the rich and famous, or those seeking a detox from technology. Many people have dreams of the cottage life: weekends spent by the lake and the campfire. Others simply want a second home that is low maintenance, easily accessible, and similar to their actual home. As with most things in life, there are both pros and cons. For a lot of people, the decision whether or not to buy a vacation home comes down to how they plan to use it.

“There are many advantages to purchasing in a gated master-planned community,” says Eric Van Maren, managing partner of The Cottages on Osoyoos Lake. “First of all, there is the security and comfort of knowing your neighbours will keep an eye on your property when you are away. Knowing who your neighbours are will also make it easier for you to make friends.

Typical master-planned communities have a community center, swimming pools, exercise facilities, etc. These would be too expensive for a typical purchaser to construct on their own.”

Returning to the same place year after year can be comforting, especially as you familiarize with the location and your neighbours. It allows the opportunity to expand friendships with residents, as you become part of the

social fabric.

While vacation homes are a great place to connect with friends and family, he also says there are some costs people should be aware of before purchasing their second home, especially

as a standalone property.

“Insurance cost for a standalone property may be significantly higher than in a community with neighbours, who can keep an eye on your property, says Van Maren. “Property taxes, annual

maintenance, utilities even when you are not using the home, strata fees if you are part of a master-planned community, etc.”

Another disadvantage of buying a secluded standalone property is the

difficulty of building on it. “In many locations it may be hard to get sub trades and suppliers to work on the new home. Security when there’s no one around is also a concern,” says Van Maren.

If you decide to opt for property “off the grid,” make sure you have easy access to your land at all times of year. If you can’t drive in, it will be especially difficult to organize an efficient build and maintenance. There are many very inexpensive plots of land, which at first glance look like a great price, but access proves to be very difficult.

The most obvious advantage of a standalone house over is the size of the property on which a stand-alone house is built. This could also mean the value of the property increases in the long term. The size of the house is also a benefit, especially for those with growing families.

Whether you choose a masterplanned community or a standalone home, there are intangible benefits of passing property from generation to generation. Choose wisely.

Hard work pays off for Nandakumar Walnut Grove guard goes from hardly playing to provincial all-star GARY AH U J A Ti m e s Re po r t e r

After three years of riding the bench and not making much of an impact on the basketball court, Santhosh Nandakumar had had enough.

The 17-year-old spent last summer almost exclusively in the gym, whether it was at the Walnut Grove Rec Centre or next door at Walnut Grove Secondary.

Most days — and every day of the week — he was out of the house for close to 12 hours, spending his time working out, perfecting his jump shot or scrimmaging with his teammates.

“There were times I was really exhausted and wanted a day off, but then I thought this is my dream, this is my last chance,” he explained about his mindset heading into his senior year of high school.

“That picture of me playing, being successful, kept me going.”

His goal was to take 1,000 shots a day.

And the work paid off for the six-foot-two Grade 12 shooting guard.

“This is a great story. Santhosh is an exceptional learner.

“That is not just in the classroom, but on the basketball court,” raved Walnut Grove basketball coach George Bergen.

Prior to Nandakumar joining the Gators senior program two years ago, the Walnut Grove junior coach had told Bergen that he wasn’t even sure the player would be able to make the transition to senior ball.

So what changed in the summer between his Grade 11 and 12 years?

“This was my last chance and I decided I had to work as hard as I could,” Nandakumar explained.

“So I spent my whole summer playing basketball and training, trying to get better.”

“He went to work,” Bergen said.

“He got his feet into such

Walnut Grove’s Santhosh Nandakumar drives to the hoop against the W.J. Mouat Hawks during the bronze medal game at the B.C. 4A senior boys provincial basketball championships at the Langley Events Centre. Nandakumar led the Gators in scoring at the championships, earning a second team provincial all star award. shooting rhythm. It was unbelievable to watch him work at it every morning.

“His shot became effortless.”

Once the basketball season started back in the fall, Nandakumar showed well enough in practice that he earned a starting role.

And he took off from there, becoming a key component in a potent Gators attack which finished the season with a record of 29-8 and a third-place finish at the B.C. 4A senior boys provincial basketball championships.

He averaged close to 20 points during the regular season but Nandakumar was at his finest at the provincial tournament,

leading his team in scoring in three of the four games and finishing with just over 24 points per game. He also connected on nearly 47 per cent (22-for-47) of his three-point shot attempts.

His play earned Nandakumar a provincial second team all-star award. “(Santhosh) went from hardly playing to starting to being one of our key guys,” Bergen said.

“He was striving for excellence and I think he achieved it.

“He had a great tournament and a great season.”

Nandakumar has also been selected to play in the B.C. boys high school all-star game tomorrow (Saturday) at the Langley

Events Centre.

The game is for the top Grade 12 players from around the province.

“It is an honour, it is exciting,” Nandakumar said.

“All those guys are great players. I just want to show what I can do, but also get the win.”

And winning — not personal success — has always been his goal.

“I just wanted to play. When I started to play more and have some success, that just kept me motivated, wanting to do more.

But I never expected any personal success. I just wanted to win,” he said.

“We have a championship cul-

ture here (at Walnut Grove) and high expectations.

“My first goal was to play, and when that came through, the next goal we had was to win a championship. We came up a little bit short but I liked how we fought and we fought until the end.”

Nandakumar is also hoping this isn’t the end of his basketball playing days as he wants to play at the post-secondary level.

He has already earned an academic scholarship to Simon Fraser University, where he plans on studying engineering. But he is considering trying to make the Clan basketball team as a walkon player.

Stealth season on the brink of elimination Struggling lacrosse team needs to win final four games and hope Calgary loses twice The Vancouver Stealth have no margin for error after the struggling National Lacrosse League team suffered a seventh

straight defeat.

The Stealth had a great start on Saturday night, jumping out to a 3-1 lead on the host Calgary Roughnecks

— the team they are trying to track down for the third and final playoff spot in the West Division.

But after that great opening 15 minutes, Vancouver was outscored 13-4 over the next two quarters to fall 16-12 to the Roughnecks at Calgary’s Scotiabank Sad-

“In the second and third (quarters) we made some really easy plays for them,” Stealth coach Jamie Batley, told NLL.com.

“Our compete level wasn’t on some loose balls and face-offs and they took advantage of it. We have to clean it up.”

The Roughnecks gained 93 loose balls to Vancouver’s 75 while also winning 22 of 32 face-offs.

The win improved Calgary to 7-9 while the Stealth fell to 3-11.

“We have to play 60 minutes. We haven’t done that this last month,” Batley said.

To make the post-season, Vancouver needs to win their remaining four games — including tomorrow (Saturday, 7 p.m.) when they host Calgary at the Langley Events Centre — while hoping the Roughnecks also drop their season finale on April 30.

Corey Small led the Stealth offence with two goals and six assists while Logan Schuss (two goals, four assists), Rhys Duch (two goals, three assists), Keegan Bal (two goals, two assists) and Joel McCready (two goals, one assist) all had multi-goal games.

Jordan Durston (one goal, two assists) and Thomas Hoggarth (one goal) had the other Stealth tallies.

Curtis Dickson (four goals, two assists) and Dane Dobbie (three goals, two assists) did the bulk of the damage for Calgary.

The Roughnecks outshot Vancouver 57-49.

Big jump for Cholowski Dennis Cholowski is on the rise.

The 18-year-old from Langley moved up 25 spots from his midterm ranking — the highest riser among BCHL players — to be ranked 23rd among North American skaters as NHL Central Scouting released its final player ratings on Tuesday, ahead of June’s NHL entry draft.

The Chilliwack Chiefs defenceman had been ranked 48th in the middle of the season.

He is ranked third among the

six BCHL players to make the list.

Cholowski and the Chiefs begin play in the BCHL’s Fred Page Cup finals tonight (Friday) against the West Kelowna Warriors in a best-of-seven series.

In 14 playoff games, he has four goals and 11 points.

He also had 12 goals and 40 points during the regular season.

Cholowski is off to St. Cloud State in the fall.

••• Five Langley hockey players

are among the 120 players invited to take part in BC Hockey’s annual U16 camp.

The camp runs April 20 to 24 at the Shaw Centre in Salmon Arm. The top 40 players from this camp will move on to a summer camp with the final team selected in the fall.

Goaltenders Boston Bilous and Alex Rolfe, defenceman Alex Cotton and forwards Josh Williams and Caden Creasy have all been invited to the camp.

Kim starts season with win A pair of eagles on the opening day helped Langley’s Andy Kim capture both his division title and the low overall score over the weekend as the MJT Prodigy Series teed off at Surrey’s Morgan Creek Golf Club.

Kim shot an opening round 69 and then a 75 on day two as his 145 edged Surrey’s Samuel Su’s 146 to win the juvenile boys championship.

“It feels like I’m back to playing good golf over after a horrible year last year,” said the 16-year-old Kim. The win qualifies him for the U.S. Kids Teen World Championships as well as the B.C. Ju-

nior Boys Golf Championships in July.

Another Langley golfer, Andy Jang, was tied for fifth.

Fort Langley’s Jackson Jacob, 14, finished second in the bantam division with round of 7170—141.

He finished two shots back of Vancouver’s Ilirian Zalli.

And in the junior boys division, Langley’s Willis (Jung Hwan) Lee was tied for sixth.

The tour’s next stop is the MJT Lindsay Kenney Classic at Pagoda Ridge Golf Course in Langley on May 7 and 8.

••• It was a successful trip Down

Under for the Fort Langley Canoe Club’s women C Dragonboat team.

The team, Titanium, medalled in every distance they entered at the 10th club crew world championships in Adelaide, Australia. The competition was held earlier this month (April 1 to 3).

Facing some stiff competition and challenging water conditions, the team earned silver medals in both the 500m and 200m events as well as bronze in the 2000m race. In all three races, they were less than one second from the gold medal.

South Surrey has a rural area 2/3 the size of Stanley Park with similar forests, beauty and biodiversity.

ITS FUTURE HAS TREMENDOUS POTENTIAL, BUT IS THREATENED Last September Surrey City Council voted unanimously to exclude 77 acres of Little Campbell River frontage from an area plan for the 600 acre “Special Study Area” south of Campbell Heights at 192nd Street and 16th Avenue.

Council is allowing this land to be considered for industrial rezoning “in advance” of a comprehensive land use planning process.

WHY? Council’s decision: BYPASSES best practices for community planning, VIOLATES an earlier City Council resolution to not consider applications until a plan is complete, and GIVES PREFERENCE to one developer, ‘fast tracking’ their application for an industrial truck park facility

WHAT? Introducing polluting industries into the area will place at p risk: The Brookswood od Aquifer: water for or thousands of South th Surrey & Langley resisidents.

The health of vulnerarable people in three neighboring residential care homes.

Sixty years of stewardardship and restoration n of the Little Campbell River, a productive salmon/trout spawning river and the habitat for a wide variety of wildlife.

If rezoned industrial, Council’s actions will literally “pave the way” for industry in an agricultural area, eroding a planning process seeking highest and best use for this unique landscape in Surrey.

Fiat 500 style back in ‘57…

Safety Tip: driving is no challenge as long as you are not looking to drag race.

Once you get past the name and the style interpretation, this commemorative edition is a very different car from the real 1957 edition. It’s got all the extras today’s drivers demand, such as a comprehensive air bag system, hill start assist, electronic stability control, touchscreen navigation and comfy leather seats.

The tester also had a power sunroof, which adds a $750 to the base price of $22,995. Don’t think you would want to do without that goody. The full leather package, with classy accent stitching, adds another $2,000. With the inclusion of the $1,755 destination charge, the final sticker price for this version hit $28,755.

We were looking to buy a sedan, we called several dealers including Jonker Nissan.

The salesman on the phone was very friendly and polite. We live in Abbotsford but because of how nice Vonn was on the phone we decided to go see him the next day. We were more impressed with his professionalism and how he took care of us, so we bought a brand new Sentra from him.

Thank you so much Vonn. Mr. & Mrs. Gill

I want to take the time to thank you for the fantastic new Rogue I now drive and LOVE! I like most people dread the thought of coming to a car dealership and being cornered into a something I’m not interested in. However that was far from the case when working with Rena at Jonker Nissan. From the follow-up email to my initial inquiry she was professional and listened to what was interested in. She provided me with several different options with various different price points being sure to point out the different benefits of each option.

She was delightful to work with; I didn’t expect to purchase a new vehicle that day but Rena instilled confidence in your organization and the vehicle I wanted so I was very comfortable making that decision immediately and I have not suffered buyer’s remorse on that decision, quite the opposite...I love the new Rogue!

Over the last year, as we prepared to transition to retirement, we visited most automotive dealers in the Surrey/Langley/White Rock area in search of the right combination of vehicles that would best serve us. In the spring, we had the good fortune to meet with Les Flewelling from Jonker Nissan. Les presented us with a knowledgeable, straight forward and honest approach. Les quickly gained our trust. In May we took possession of our 2015 Nissan Murano and in September a 2015 Nissan Micra. Between our two purchases, Les also sold one of our children a previously owned Nissan. In retrospect, there is absolutely no doubt that Les and the Jonker Nissan team that supports him was the right choice for us and our family. We have great confidence in recommending Jonker Nissan to others. John

Rena was amazing! She knew all the answers to the many questions… We ended up with the Pathfinder and because she was so thorough we didn’t have any questions at the end. Rena made us feel that our business really mattered to her. We didn’t feel like just another sale which is so nice. This is our 3rd Nissan and we know why! Lisae

3 Reasons to Lease:

You pay for only part of the car you are going to use.

The payment on a lease is made on a much smaller balance than a comparable term loan. The tax is paid as you go, and not up front, as with the purchase. With a lease, you get a smaller obligation and smaller payment, and less taxes.

2

A lease gives you options that give you more control of vehicle costs.

Equity may accumulate due to Nissan’s strong resale value; the value may actually increase! A lease protects you from any loss in vehicle due to any unforeseen price influences (economic conditions, manufacture problems, accident declarations, vehicle loss of popularity, gas consumption, etc). And you can buy out the lease and own the vehicle at any time.

3

A lease can give you better cash flow.

The lease gives you a new car with smaller payments and the ability to cash in on any equity. Smaller payments may allow you to buy that new car (warranty, features, etc) rather than a used one that may involve more maintenance or repairs.

a lifestyle choice that allows you to get more car, more often, with better options and flexibility.

We bought a Nissan Juke and had a wonderful buying experience at Jonkers. Our salesman Mr. Vonn Chan is not pushy and very knowledgeable. We shopped around and Vonn gave us the best deal! Aileen Mendozae

Volkswagen Budd-e move towards comprehensive digitalization and the individualization of the driver’s workplace, these two areas have been merged to form a single information hub.

All of BUDD-e’s systems are operated intuitively by gesture control, touchscreen (displays and touch slider) or voice control. The driver can choose between various intuitive control modes (multi-modal interaction). For example, a simple “Hello BUDD-e” activates the vehicle’s voice control. The system

Ford Fusion takes stress out of traffic jams Ford can’t prevent aggravating traffic congestion, but it’s adding something new to help make traffic less stressful.

A new stop-and-go technology available for the 2017 Fusion, which piggybacks on the existing adaptive cruise control feature, can help drivers experience less stress on the road.

When activated stop-and-go automatically accelerates and brakes for the driver while maintaining a safe distance from the vehicle ahead.

Now, whether on a long-distance trip or the daily commute, customers of the 2017 Fusion equipped with adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go technology can drive with less stress.

Using dedicated steering wheel buttons, adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go allows drivers to set cruise control speed and following distance from the vehicle ahead.

The semi-autonomous technology can automatically adjust the set speed for comfortable travel – much like a human driver would – bringing the car to a full stop when traffic halts.

If the car has to stop for more than three seconds, the driver can tap the resume button or accelerator and the car returns to its preset speed. This assures the driver is paying attention in the event of a long pause in traffic.

Adaptive cruise control employs a combination of sensors and software.

When activated, the technology uses an advanced radar-and-camera based system, which reads the road every 50 milliseconds – tracking traffic and adjusting Fusion’s cruise control according to traffic flow.

In slow traffic, with minimal driver input, the car can automatically brake itself to a stop, then resume travel up to set speed and following distance. ~ Metroland Media

The new Ford Fusion offers adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go technology to help take the edge off stressful traffic.

also offers completely natural speech interaction. For example, if the driver asks “turn the heat up a bit, please”, the car will respond immediately and appropriately. The system is also able to locate the passenger giving the commands, and react accordingly. If, for instance, someone sitting in the left rear seat says “It’s too hot here”, BUDD-e can immediately lower the temperature in that passenger’s zone. keith.morgan@drivewaybc.ca

Nissan GT-R breaks record for fastest drift Nissan has set the Guinness World Record title for the fastest ever drift.

The record was broken with a speed of 304.96 km/h and 30 degrees angle using a specially tuned 2016 Nissan GT-R. Masato Kawabata, the Japanese drift champion and title holder for the Japanese drifting series, clinched the top spot from former record holder Jakub Przygonski of Poland.

The record was set during a special event that took place at Fujairah International Airport, UAE. The record-breaking Nissan GT-R was developed with the support and coordination of Nismo specialists.

It was tuned to 1,380 hp in order to set the record, and adapted so all the power went to the rear wheels.

The car was set up for agility while maintaining stability and confidence-inspiring handling characteristics - essential when performing such challenging feats.

Fujairah International Airport was strategically chosen for its 3km long airstrip which was deemed to be sufficiently long enough for the challenge.

From the outset, Nissan wanted to perform the drift at a speed of more than 300 km/h and Kawabata, who leads in the Japanese drifting series for Team Tokyo, was chosen from a group of highly specialized competition drivers. ~ Metroland Media

A Nissan GT-R has just claimed the Guinness World Record for the fasted drift at 304.96 km/h.
