White blanket hits Langley hard

An early morning snowfall made for a treacherous commute on Thursday morning.

One car slid down an embankment near Rawlison Crescent and 232nd Street. The car was badly battered and the driver had to be extracted by Township firefighters. “Usually when they say they extricate them they have pull the by Matthew Claxton and Heather car apart to some extent,” said acting assistant fire chief Bryant Colpitts Ross. news@langleyadvance.com Firefighters and other emerSnow began falling in the early gency responders were also hours of Thursday, and by the called out to deal with a number time Langley residents woke to of other cars that wound up in go to work or school, it was time the ditches, some upside down. to dig out.

With the snow still coming down, plow drivers were concentrating on major routes, and leaving secondary roads and residential streets to their own devices. “We’re looking at pretty close to six inches in some areas,” Veer said of the snowfall.

Brody MacRory, three, didn’t seem to mind having snow in his eyes after sliding down a slope Thursday morning at Meadows Edge Park. All Langley public schools were open. The only impact was that Langley School District special needs buses weren’t running. That affected up to 135 students. Special needs busing is a door to door service. “With conditions worsening through the day, it was felt that the district might not be able to return students home safely at the end of the school day,” explained Craig Spence, the district communications manager. “There are also issues of access for some special needs students, which pose increasing levels of risk as snow accumulates.”

The Kings School, a private school with about 130 students at 21783 76B Ave., was closed due to the weather. It was likewise for Credo Christian schools and Langley Christian schools in Murrayville, and St. Catherine’s Catholic School in Brookswood. As with the first snowfall of the season, last weekend, Langley City firefighters were pleased to see no serious crashes or other problems cropping up on their roads. Deputy chief Pete Methot described conditions during the morning commute as “remarkably quiet.”

aab finds a home at Springman’s Passion for cars brings two companies together Springman’s Auto Centre is proud to announce a first - it is now the first Saab dealer in British Columbia since the Swedish car company was reborn. Victor Muller, the Dutch entrepreneur who started luxury car company, Spyker, took over Saab in early 2010. He saved it from being shut down by former owner General Motors. Muller is a car guy and he believes in the brand. And when brothers Dan and Rueben Springman started selling cars almost 30 years ago, they did so because they were car guys. “My brother and I have always loved cars,” says Dan Springman, co-owner of Springman’s Auto Centre in Langley on the Langley Bypass. “We have a passion for the automobile. When we found out that Saab was being given new life by someone who shared that passion, we knew we had to be a part of that,” he added. The brothers started Springman Motors in Langley in 1986, selling quality pre-owned vehicles, becoming a Saturn dealer in the early 1990s. Today, Dan is the General Manager and Rueben is the Service and Body Shop Manager. Springman’s has become a true family business with cousins and a niece working there and, of course, their dedicated staff is a huge part of the success of the dealership. “Our goal has always been to deliver a quality product backed by excellent service,” states Dan. “Saab has a very loyal and dedicated following,” he added. “We know that fits in very well with our reputation at a top provider of sales, service and auto body repairs in Metro Vancouver.” Saab is making a statement with current and brand new models coming to market. The 9-3 Sport Sedn, Convertible and Sport-Combi are the most recognizable models, available in four or six cylinder versions with either all wheel drive (AWD) or front wheel drive (FWD). Coming in November 2010, the totally redesigned 9-5 sedan will make its deput in the Springman’s showroom. It’s a luxury sedan in the styling loyal to Saab’s roots in the aeronautic industry. The car comes as a four cylinder turbo or six cylinder turbo AWD and inclludes the latest technogy, such as a lane departure warning system. And in April of 2011, the brand new 9-4X will debut at the Los Angeles Auto Show. A mid-size crossover SUV, it is sure to be a big

winner boasting all the elements that make up a true Saab. It’s been designed to meet the styling of an urban vehicle while still meeting the rugged demands of the weekend sportsperson. The interior boasts the comfort and luxury that Saab lovers have come to expect. The Springman brothers forsee great things in the future as the new owner of Saab brings the company back to its roots. Dan and Rueben are excited about the future with Saab. They also want to make sure all of their past and current customers know they will continue to receive the same high quality service they have come to expect. Springman’s Auto Centre is now providing Saab customers with service, warranty, parts and body shop repairs. And it continues to be the preferred warranty-approved service centre for all Saturn customers. Springman’s also specializes in all-make sales and leasing. In addition to quality repairs, the service centre is an authorized Auto Parts Plus dealer and the auto body shop is state-of-the-art. Come and see what all the excitement is about at Springman’s Auto Centre, located at 19550 Langley Bypass.

Langley farmers have seen a rise in goat-nappings of late.

Thieves hitting farms Langley farmers are not immune to the goat theft crime wave that has hit the Lower Mainland.

The farmer had three goats stolen on Nov. 8, and then four more stolen on Nov. 16. None of the goats have been located. Langley has also been the site of sales of some of the stolen Chilliwack goats. Seven of those goats were located in by Matthew Claxton Langley, after they were sold to a local mclaxton@langleyadvance.com farmer.

A pub proposed for a Willoughby neighbourhood has residents up in arms, now that a new school will be built a few blocks away. The pub is to be part of the Irish Cultural Centre development going in near 208th Street and 83rd Avenue. Caralee Randall and Hank Der, president and vice-president of the Willoughby Home Owners Association (WHOA), are gathering signatures in opposition to the plan. They will bring as many people as possible to next Monday’s council meeting, to a public hearing on the liquor licence and development permit for the project. Randall said her son will likely be attending the new school announced for about COMMENT 300 metres down the road. “I won’t be taking him ONLINE past a licensed [pub] that shouldn’t be here,” Randall said. Township rules say pubs and schools should be about 500 metres apart. Der described the pub’s proximity to the school as “unacceptable.” The pub has been a part of the Cultural Centre plans since at least 2008. Some neighbours objected its inclusion then. The province and school district didn’t disclose the site of the new school, at 210th Street and 83rd Avenue, until this fall. The pub will be around 208th or 209th Street. They won’t quite be on the same street. Ramin Seifi of the Township’s community development department, said the pub and cultural centre will be on a cul-de-sac of 83rd Avenue to the east of 208th Street. Diagrams of the road connection will be available in the Township council’s agenda package starting Friday. The other nearby portions of 83rd Avenue will be realigned to join with 82nd Avenue. A connecting road will join 83rd to 82nd near the cul-de-sac. School trustee Stacey Cody said she initially thought the juxtaposition of a pub and a school was a bit odd. However, she isn’t convinced there’s a direct connection between a pub and any extra danger of crime in the area. The surprise of finding the school site so close to a previously proposed pub is another sign that the school board and Township need to communicate better, she said. Randall and Der say they expect the council chambers to be packed with opponents of the plan Monday night. www.langleyadvance.com

Driver guilty in flagger’s death A man who ran down a construction flagger has admitted his guilt. by Jennifer Saltman

Postmedia Network Inc.

An elderly Abbotsford man has pleaded guilty to running down a flagperson near Fort Langley almost three years ago. Melle Grietinus Pool’s trial was supposed to begin in B.C. Supreme Court in New Westminster Monday, but Pool instead admitted to dangerous driving causing death. He was charged with criminal negligence causing death. Pool, 87, was driving westbound in the 23300block River Road just before 12:30 p.m. on Feb. 25, 2008, when his pickup struck 52-year-old Terry Mitchell of Pitt Meadows, an eight-year employee with Valley Traffic

Systems. Mitchell was working traffic control with a colleague while an excavator operator and Township employees cleared a ditch when he was hit. Pool was driving without a valid licence. Mitchell’s widow, Alison Stacey, said the length of time that passed since the incident – 33 months – is unbelievable. “It’s been a long ordeal,” she said outside court. “There’s a certain relief at seeing him convicted.” Crown prosecutor Don Wilson said in court that he will ask for a custodial sentence. “Nothing’s going to bring Terry bounding back through the door,” Stacey said. A pre-sentence report – with a focus on options for geriatric accused – has been ordered. Sentencing submissions are scheduled for February 2011.

Suspect arrested

A Langley woman was one of several police believe was attacked by the same man. by Matthew Claxton mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

A Surrey man has been charged with a long list of sexual assaults and druggings, including one attack on a Langley resident. Surrey police arrested a 45-year-old suspect earlier this week. RCMP Const. Peter Neily said the suspect is believed to have targeted women for sexual assault, going back to this summer. Victims were allegedly drugged, assaulted, and in several cases robbed. Neily said the victims were members of a group involved in high risk activity, but he did not say exactly what type of activity. The suspect was already in custody on an unrelated charge when the investigation focused on him, Neily said. On Nov. 18, when police learned he was about to be released, they arrested him on the new charges. Steven Beszedes has been charged with six counts of administering a noxious substance, four counts of sexual assault, one count of robbery, and one count of assault. The investigation is ongoing and more charges are expected. Police believe there are other victims who have not yet come forward. They are encouraging anyone with more information to call the sexual offences unit at 604-599-0502.

Installation Hints • Laminates are “floating” floors, which means they don’t have to be nailed or glued to the subsurface. This makes them noisier than other coverings, so use QuietWalk underlay from Windsor Plywood, to absorb the sound. • Let the planks sit in their closed box for at least 48 hours before you install them, so they’ll adapt to the room’s climate. • Inspect each plank for damage and differences in colour and thickness before installation. These problems are tough to fix after installation.

Keep your floors looking new • Clean only with a laminate floors cleaner. Spray the cleaner onto the mop or cloth, not directly on to the floor! • Never clean laminates with abrasive cleansers, scouring pads, wax, polish or mop and shine products. • To prevent scratching, pickup floor-protector pads from Windsor Plywood. Place the pads under the legs of tables, chairs and other furniture. Shell Busey - host of the Home Discovery Radio Show

Fraud artist loves coffee by Matthew Claxton mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

A bold Fort Langley-area con artist has been getting refunds for items he never bought in the first place, the RCMP says. On Sept. 17, a Fort Langley store called in the Mounties to investigate a fraud. The suspect walked into the store carrying a plastic shopping bag. He then walked around, picking up a few packages of coffee from the store shelves. The man then walked

up to the counter and asked for a refund on the same coffee. He offered an explanation for the return and even told the clerk he’d talked to the manager previously, said Cpl. Holly Marks. With almost $100 from the scam, the man left the store. Police believe the same man has hit other Fort area businesses in recent months. Police are now trying to identify the man and are asking for the public’s help. The suspect is

Power

Wind knocks out electricity Some Langley residents had a cold and dark night as power failed in several areas. by Matthew Claxton mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

Strong winds whipped through the Fraser Valley on Monday night, knocking out power to hundreds of Langley homes. According to BC Hydro, the biggest local power failure struck along the southeast side of Langley City and extended down into the Township through Brookswood. That power failure affected more than

3,000 homes and businesses. Another 2,200 homes and stores lost power in the northern half of Aldergrove, while dozens of power failures scattered around the community affected anywhere between five and 300 homes. Much of South Langley and Surrey were affected by power failures as well. By mid-day on Tuesday, most of the power failures had been repaired, but several hundred Langley residents were still waiting to get the lights turned back on. The cause of most of the power failures was listed as “wind storm” or “trees down across wires,” but several were caused by equipment failure, or even bird strikes on wires.

Robotics kids need votes

Competition is tough for local students involved in an online competition. by Samantha Shirley-Urano news@langleyadvance.com

Students at schools in Aldergrove could be getting robotics programs through the Aviva Community Fund online competition, but they need help to do it. Voting is open online, and anyone can sign up to vote with an email and password. Each email address is given nine votes in a round, and they can only vote for a certain project once a day. Tara Sutherland, the mother of an 11-yearold boy at Betty Gilbert Middle School, said on Wednesday she is optimistic that the “Robotics in Aldergrove” project would make it in the top ten for the round that ended this morning at 9 a.m. If in the top ten, the local project would advance to the semifinals. Voting for the semifinals will be from Dec. 2-15, and the competition in their category is stiff. Sutherland said having robotics at Aldergrove

The “Robotics in Aldergrove” project is going up against other entries in the Aviva Community Fund online competition. schools would be beneficial for the students. “It’s worthwhile because it can be used for kids of varying abilities,” she said. “Kids may be having trouble with different

things in school, but they can benefit because they can get into it. And [for children] at the other end of spectrum, they can challenge themselves.”

District takes on new assistant

Langley School District’s assistant superintendent is retiring, and his replacement starts in January. by Heather Colpitts hcolpitts@langleyadvance.com

The Langley School District has announced a change of the guard at the senior administrative level. Assistant superintendent Charlie Etchell is retiring, and Suzanne Hoffman has

been named to fill the spot as of Jan. 1. Hoffman is the district principal of professional and instructional services and has been with the school district since 1990. She served as a teacher, vice-principal and principal before becoming a district principal in 2005. Hoffman joins the district’s senior management team consisting of superintendent Cheryle Beaumont, new secretary-treasurer David Green and Jennifer Canas, assistant superintendent of human resources.

LIVE GREEN - SAVE GREEN

South Fraser OnTrax presents a workshop on saving money by living sustainably.

Students strive for robotics funds She said students can learn through robotics in many different ways, including math, reading, science and computer skills. As well, they can learn to work as part of a team. The Aldergrove schools are in the “Up to $25K” category, and if they win, the funding received would be enough to buy kits for a full class at the middle school, then hopefully later for the high school, and also to have one kit for each of the elementary schools. The goal is for a robotics club to start at Betty Gilbert Middle School and also at Aldergrove Community Secondary. There are already more than 30 children at the middle school who want to be in the robotics club, Sutherland said. They would be put into pairs or groups of three, each with one kit in the club. “There is a program you can purchase along with [the kits] that teaches them over a 6-week period,” Sutherland said, which they would like to purchase as well.

She said they would also need a volunteer or teacher to guide them through the program, and hopefully in the future they would have a strong leader who would take them to the yearly First Lego League competition. The goal is for there to be a robotics program in place at Aldergrove Secondary as well, so interested students could continue their learning in the higher grades. If the project does not win, Sutherland said the parents will apply for grants and ask for support from local businesses. To vote for “Robotics in Aldergrove” go to www.avivacommunityfund.org. Sutherland also said the children who go to school in Aldergrove can vote in the competition, with permission from their parents. “Then they can feel that they’re making a difference in what’s happening in their school,” she explained. Go to www.langleyadvance.com to check whether the Aldergrove project made it into the semifinals.

NOW, more than ever, it’s important to plan ahead.

Also, BC Hydro will talk on energy saving in the home and provide help with accessing various energy saving rebates and grants available.

Respect lacking The numbers are astounding. And embarrassing. More than 100,000 women and children are forced out of their homes to escape domestic violence – each year. That’s in Canada. This is not some backwards country in one of the world’s backwaters – the kind of country that we fancy requires our ongoing assistance to maintain civilization. This is not a country afflicted with endemic poverty and the stresses that that creates throughout the social structure. This is not a country perpetually at war with its immediate neighbours and within its own borders, so that violence has become the natural state of being for many of its citizens. This is Canada – a nation renowned and revered throughout the world for its peaceful disposition, and for the laid-back, rational world-view of its people. So it seems yet another stereotype is seriously flawed. And while we’re at it, let’s point out that the root of the problem is violence against women – the children are often caught in the middle. Ending violence against women is not just a legal issue. It’s not just a matter of sending police officers in when the shouting turns to beatings and worse. Violence against women comes in many forms, and until the social respect that all citizens deserve is recognized to be at the heart of the problem, the more visible forms of violence will continue. To beat violence down, we have to go beyond the homes in which violence occurs. We have to address unacceptable – and yet still universally accepted – social relationships that automatically place women in inferior positions. We have to address social demands born of exploitative stereotypes. And we have to address social expectations that continue to place undue burdens on women who strive to succeed in non-traditional arenas. It all comes down to respect. And 100,000 women and children aren’t getting as much of it as they deserve. – B.G.

Transportation

Look at past to move forward

Dear Editor, The “Moving Forward plan” was mentioned in your article [TransLink tax appears doomed, Nov. 19, Langley Advance]. To move forward, one needs first to see where one has been. In 1947, oil was discovered at Leduc, Alberta. The impact on Western Canada was likely the main reason for the shortsighted decision to abandon passenger services on the BC Electric Railway in the Fraser Valley in 1950. The passenger service abandonment followed the provisions of the 1907 Langley Rail, Power and Light Bylaw – and soon after, it was forgotten. We heard last year that the 1907 Bylaw is still valid in the Township. Was the City of Langley ever advised of its existence, and that it may also still be valid there? This affects the construction costs of railway crossings. In 1968, a substantial part of the BC Electric Railway was relocated through Surrey and the Langleys. To my knowledge, it was only Mayor Bill Poppy of the Township who had the foresight to schedule a meeting with BC Hydro, in which a promise was obtained for a railway overpass at the Langley Bypass (although that was located within the City of Langley) “to be built whenever traffic would warrant.” To date, after 42 years, nothing has come of this promise. Methinks traffic warrants it. If Langley City had known about that promise, and had been aware of the 1907 Bylaw, it would also have been able to solicit a similar promise for a railway overpass on 200th Street. In 1989, the Socred provincial government of the day launched the “Freedom to Move” program, with many colourful glossy brochures. The promise of lots of work for

consulting engineers, in fact, brought my family to B.C. from Yukon that summer. Under the Hon. Rita Johnstone, Minister of Transportation, it was to solve future traffic congestion in the Lower Mainland. Under the program, the Surrey-Langley Transportation Study recommended highway improvements that included a railway overpass on the Langley Bypass. Instead of a railway overpass on 200th Street, one was proposed on 196th Street. The Socreds imploded soon thereafter, and the NDP regime started a decade of general decline in construction activity. The Greater Vancouver Regional District receive transportation responsibilities that the provincial government did not want to have any more, hence GVTA/TransLink. Now, in 2010, we have new new buzzword: the “Moving Forward plan.” TransLink now acts, through its CEO, as if it calls all the shots. It is surely no wonder that all mayors south of the Fraser River are now balking at the request for more money for outdated technology on the other side of the Fraser River, where many of us never want to go. The South of the Fraser Rail Task Force has already brought these municipal councillors closer to each other. I guess they now have a better and broader view of each other’s real needs. I would therefore encourage all of them, from Delta, White Rock, Surrey, and the two Langleys, to stand together more. Now, there’s an early New Year’s Resolution! A split from Metro Vancouver would be more logical than the Langley split of 1955, which should be undone. We all have streetlights. Jacob de Raadt, Langley City [Note: A fuller version of this letter is online at www.langleyadvance.com.]

Hospice

Grief can make season difficult

Dear Editor, It’s that time of year again – a festive time of sharing and goodwill, family and friends coming together to celebrate this joyous season. Alas, that is not true for those of us who have experienced the death of a loved one. It can be a lonely, sad, and overwhelming time to go through a

first, second, or even third Christmas without our special person. The Langley Hospice Society appreciates this, and offers a helping heart at this time of year. We are hosting Journeying through the Holidays, a memorial evening of inspiration, information, and hope. Please join us in

Health care

MS sufferers lost in system

Dear Editor, Our so-called “universal” health care system, for which we pay dearly, by the way, ensures that people who smoke cigarettes, who abuse alcohol and drugs, and who are intentionally obese (and others) get all of the health care they need. But this apparently doesn’t apply to those with multiple sclerosis who have the audacity to seek treatment unavailable here, at medical clinics other than in Canada. This is the logic of our health care system. Go figure. Most doctors have integrity in their profession, but they are human, too. Thus empire-protecting, to ensure they continue to receive funding, and turf wars abound. Due diligence is understandable, and expected for any new procedures such as the Liberation treatment (a.k.a. CCSVI) for persons with MS, but the medical profession appears to have lost sight of the person suffering with MS. Perhaps the Canadian medical system and medical profession need a shake-up to remind doctors of their Hippocratic oath and that they are “obliged,” according to the Canada Health Act, to treat MS patients who suffer from any side effects of the Liberation treatment.

The best thing pet owners can do for their dogs and cats during cold snaps is keep them inside. “That’s really the best suggestion,” said Sean Baker, manager of Langley’s Patti Dale Animal Shelter. With temperatures hovering at -4 to -6 Celsius during the day, it’s too cold for pets to comfortably live in the backyard, Baker said. Of course, dogs will still have to go outside for brief trips to answer calls of nature. “Short walks aren’t going to be really threatening to your animal,” Baker said. One thing he advised is washing or towelling the dog’s feet if there is any salt on the roads or sidewalks. “It actually stings their pads,” Baker said. He noted that shorthaired smaller dogs are affected by the cold more quickly than larger, shag-

gier breeds. Those who don’t take good care of their dogs may become the target of SPCA investigations. BCSPCA cruelty investigators have been responding to dozens of calls all over the province during the past few days about dogs being left outside. “It’s absolutely preposterous to leave a dog – particularly a short-haired breed like a pit bull – outside in this weather,” said

BCSPCA’s senior animal protection officer Eileen Drever. Dogs and cats without adequate shelter can suffer from hypothermia and even die. Drever recalled a case in Maple Ridge a few years ago in which a Dalmatian that was kept outside froze to the ground and couldn’t get up. “These cases were so tragic and so preventable,” Drever said.

Employers eager for bus service ‘Grass roots’ guy garners awards

Employees at Langley’s largest industrial park still have no bus routes.

by Heather Colpitts hcolpitts@langleyadvance.com

by Matthew Claxton mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

With TransLink’s transit expansion plans still up in the air, Langley’s largest industrial area is still no closer to getting bus service. One of Langley’s largest private employers would love to bring a new bus route to the Gloucester Estates industrial park. Dave Martin of EV Logistics said the company, which ships groceries of all kinds, would love to see regular TransLink service connected to the industrial complex to the north of Aldergrove. “For us, it’s a challenge,” Martin said of the lack of bus service. EV Logistics has about 700 employees at its two complexes, which cover more than 800,000 square feet of warehouse space. They take in a lot of entry-level employees, but when hiring they have to sort them based on whether or not the potential hires have cars. “Basically, we end up disqualifying a lot of people because they don’t have reliable transportation,” Martin said. “We basically say where we are, and they confirm that they can’t make it here,” he said. For those who can work around the lack of a car,

Langley Advance files

Gloucester Industiral Estates sees thousands of workers arrive but none by public transit. EV Logistics tries to make things easier. “We encourage carpooling,” Martin said. There are designated parking stalls for carpooling vehicles, and the company tries to help employees set up carpools. But the facilities run 24 hours a day, with several different shifts. It’s just not always possible for a worker to find a convenient carpool. Others could buy a car – if they could hold down the job for a month or two. “A lot of times, people need that entry level position prior to getting a car,” Martin said. He said his firm has already had discussions with Township Mayor

Rick Green, and is willing to talk with TransLink or collaborate on studies to build a business case for bus service to the industrial park. The issue isn’t just connected to one company. Gary McKinnon of the Township’s economic development department said it’s been an ongoing problem. “It’s been an issue for us in terms of attracting employees,” he said. However, the fact that so many of the employees at Gloucester work odd shift hours could make bus service difficult to provide, pointed out Township Councillor Bob Long. “It seems like an obvious one,” Long admitted.

But he also said that setting up a service that would pay off for TransLink in terms of ridership could be a big challenge. The most recent TransLink proposals talked about increasing bus traffic through Brookswood and South Surrey to White Rock, and the addition of RapidBus service from Willoughby across the Port Mann Bridge. Those changes are expected to go ahead if TransLink can find new funding sources by 2012. TransLink representatives confirmed there are no current plans for Gloucester. For the near future, TransLink is simply maintaining the service it already provides.

Adam Graham knows his grass, so well in fact that the Kwantlen Polytechnic University horticulture student has won a national award. A 2010 graduate of Kwantlen’s Turf Management diploma program in Langley, he’s just been named the 2010 Canadian Golf Superintendent’s Association-Toro Future Superintendent Award. “Adam is a personifica- Adam Graham has helped out tion of the old adage, on three makeovers for needy ‘if you need something families, putting to use the done, give it to a busy skills he’s learned at Kwantlen person,’” said School of Polytechnic University. Horticulture instructor Stan Kazymerchyk. “Adam is always the first person to jump in to help out, despite having a full schedule with work, studies and family.” Graham has also served as the student turfgrass club president. “He also gave back to the community, volunteering for three home makeovers for needy families,” Kazymerchyk said. Kwantlen students can take part in an annual landscaping makeover for a needy family as part of an entire home makeover project. So what does the winner of a turfgrass award receive? More education. Graham will head to Scotland to take part in a six-week training and work experience program. He’ll also travel to Minneapolis to tour the headquarters of award sponsor Toro and attend the Canadian International Turfgrass Conference and Trade Show in Vancouver. Kwantlen also received a computer from Toro as part of the award. He was also selected for the 2009 & 2010 Western Canada Turfgrass Association Scholarship Award, and the 2010 School of Horticulture Award in recognition of his outstanding achievements.

Chamber of commerce

Nominate a worthy resident “Dutch Masters” PAINT SPECIAL since 1977

The most upstanding Langley citizen of 2010 is being sought by the Greater Langley Chamber of Commerce. The HD Stafford Good Citizen Award will be handed out next month, and just a few days are left to nominate a worthy local resident. The chamber has received a few nominations already, said executive director Lynn Whitehouse. “There’s room for more, for sure,” she said.

Those in Langley who knew Harold “H.D.” Stafford often speak freely of what a remarkable man he was. Stafford dedicated an enormous amount of time and effort to make Langley one of the best places to live and do business, Whitehouse noted. Often the projects that he became involved with were new and exciting ideas that would benefit many residents of Langley, occasionally relying on his gift of being able to share his vision and enthusiasm with others to sway them to assist him in his projects. Whatever project or cause that Stafford became involved in, he

Metal theft

Scrapping stops by Matthew Claxton

mclaxton@langleyadvance.com

A Wednesday forum on scrap metal theft may lead to new bylaws in Langley Township and around the region. Representatives from cities from Vancouver to Chilliwack travelled to the Township hall for the event, which allowed them to share information and plan for the future. Metal theft, especially the theft of copper wire, has been a problem in all communities in recent years. High prices for metals caused theft to skyrocket in 2007 and 2008, when thieves were taking anything they could pry loose, from wire to lamp posts to park benches. Township Mayor Rick Green said he was pleased with the turnout, and hopes a new, uniform bylaw will be born from the event. “It is certainly not a silver bullet,” he said. But a uniform bylaw could be one deterrent to thieves, he said. Scrap recycling bylaws are aimed at getting more information about where metal comes from when it is sold to scrap dealers.

attacked it with tenacity and would not let it go until he had seen it through to a successful and meaningful completion. Many of the past winners are people who have worked behind the scenes to make Langley a better place to live, and not necessarily those who seek the limelight. Nomination forms are available at www.langleychamber.com or by contacting the Chamber office at 604-530-6656. The deadline for nominations is Monday, Nov. 29, at noon. This year’s H.D. Stafford Good Citizen award recipient will be announced at the chamber’s general meeting on Dec. 14.

Langley’s Ariel

Disney dancer takes in local celebration by Roxanne Hooper rhooper@langleyadvance.com

riel isn’t among the Disney characters expected to make an appearance at the Disney on Ice production in Abbotsford next weekend. But a young Langley woman, who’s played that role in Toyko, has been invited to the show. Breanne Dallas, who recently returned from a stint where she performed as Ariel at Toyko Disney, has been asked to be present for the opening night of Let’s Celebrate! The show runs Friday through Sunday, Dec. 3-5, at the Abbotsford Entertainment & Sports Centre, and the 20-year-old Port Kells dancer – along with three friends – is psyched to be a special guest. “I”m really, really excited. I go to Disney on Ice every year,” Dallas told the Langley Advance. “I’m such a huge Disney fan,” she added, noting it’s not uncommon for her to break into tears at least two or three times during a show. While she’s heard a rumour that part of the show includes a snow scene, and she’s looking forward to seeing that section of the production, though admittedly, the former princess is most excited about seeing her fellow princesses take to the ice. Let’s Celebrate! is bringing more than 50 Disney characters together for what promoters dub a “colossal” party on ice. Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse will be celebrating a Very Merry Unbirthday Party with Alice and the Mad Hatter; there will be a Mardi Gras with Princess Tiana and Prince Naveen; a Royal Valentine’s Day Ball with the Disney princesses; a Hawaiian luau with Lilo & Stitch; a winter wonderland with Woody, Jessie and Buzz Lightyear; and even a Halloween haunt with the Disney villains. There will be six Disney on Ice performances, running Dec. 3 at 7:30 p.m.; Dec. 4 at noon, 3:30 and 7:30 p.m.; and Dec. 5 at 1 and 4:30 p.m. Tickets range from $17 to $70, and are available online at www.abbotsfordcentre.ca or by calling 1-866-977-2372.

Corn silo works as studio for Fort Langley painter

by Hans Ongsansoy Postmedia Network Inc. rtist Brent Ray Fraser might be the perfect guy to present an exhibit entitled The Fifth Season. For example, mere days before the opening of his new show, at the Eastwood Onley Gallery (2075 Alberta St. in Vancouver) in mid-November, Fraser was in Mexico. While grateful that he took the time to answer our questions from that literal hot spot, the revelation of Fraser’s recent whereabouts made us also consider the idea that while we are in the throes of autumn, here’s a guy who could possibly still be chasing the last remnants of summer. Another point to consider is that Fraser, a painter since he was five and a recent graduate of Emily Carr, also uses a remodelled corn silo on a farm in Fort Langley as his work studio. So, in effect, when harvest season is over, Fraser could still be cultivating long into the winter – cultivating art, that is. But is that really the case? Fraser was asked: How would you describe your art in this show? “A year is divided by four seasons. Summer is the hottest, winter the coldest – leaving autumn and spring as transitional seasons. “It’s pretty basic and generally the same every year. This simple understanding leads

Nature influences me every day, living in my corn silo.” It’s a location that offers unique surroundings. “I create my art inside a living time capsule. The converted grain silo is on a huge piece of land, which also houses a movie set called Cowboy Town. It’s in the middle of nature but inside the silo is a temple of pop culture – a huge candy bar, movies, a generous selection of lava lamps and an eclectic range of music that I blast while painting,” Fraser explained. If he could own any piece of art in the history of the world, Fraser was “A year is divided by four seasons… asked what would it be and photo contribued This simple understanding leads me to why?

Bus driver back on stage Langley-raised actor Derek Metz returns to the theatre in an Arts Club show. by Roxanne Hooper rhooper@langleyadvance.com

erek Metz thanks his wife Karla for all her support and for recognizing that he just simply needs to do this “acting thing.” “I had to step away from theatre for a couple years to focus on raising my children. I took a job driving for Coast Mountain Bus Company and “It took me 28 thought my career years to have my was over,” recounted Metz, who grew dream of working up and started his for this theatre pursuit of acting in company come Langley – in part due to a former teacher. true…” But thanks now to DEREK METZ a generous employer, a leave of absence, and an understanding wife, Metz is back on stage. This time in the Arts Club Theatre’s current production of The Patron Saint of Stanley Park, starting tonight at the Revue Stage and running through to Boxing Day (Dec. 26). Metz is a graduate of the National Theatre School of Canada, making his Arts Club debut as Kevin in this production.

on raising his two kids, Charley and Avery. “It’s not that I wasn’t able to get any gigs before I took the bus driving gig, I could,” the 40-year-old shared. “But it seemed with the cutbacks that were taking place that the gap between gigs was getting longer and it left me with little choice. Either feed my family all year round, or binge eat when I was working. Driving a bus provided some semblance of stability that was totally foreign to me.” He’s not only excited to be back on stage, but in particular on an Arts Club stage. Metz credits the Arts Club – in part – for his desire to seek a career in acting. When he was 12, his teacher Mr. Ross had Arts Club season’s tickets. “One show, in particular, that they took me to was called The Late Bloomer, by John Lasarus, at the old Seymour Stage. I was so moved by Rick Scott’s comic genius, that I said right after the show that I wanted to do what he did.” “It took me 28 years to have my dream of working for this theatre company come true... good things come to those who wait.” For tickets or other information on The Patron Saint of Stanley Park, visit the Arts Club website at www.artsclub.com.

Oranges with room to grow don’t bear fruit Dear Anne,

Dear Anne,

“I have an orange tree that bloomed and produced little oranges for two years. Since then, nothing! I changed the soil, put it in a larger pot and now it has new growth. It’s healthy. What’s wrong with my orange tree?”

by Anne Marrison

Anne Marrison is happy to answer garden questions. Send them to her via amarrison@shaw.ca

higher than the others. If your larger pot is not much bigger than the original, and you’re already feeding balanced fertilizer to your orange tree, it may not be getting enough sunshine. Have you moved it to a shadier place? You don’t say specifically that it doesn’t have flowers. Flowers on plants growing inside often need hand pollination, by giving the branches with blossoms a shake once in a while. Dear Anne,

“People often tell me coffee grounds are good for houseplants. Are they?”

Helga, via email offee grounds are a good source of nitrogen. In standard fertilizer numbers coffee, grounds are 2–0.3–0.2 (nitrogen, phosphorous, potash, respectively). Nitro-

gen assists growth, phosphorous encourages fruit and flowers, and potash promotes plant health. But coffee grounds are also acidic, and they’re best mixed into compost rather than used alone. As a rough rule of thumb, houseplants that are happy in peat-type potting mix could probably handle some coffee grounds. But start with a very light application, and watch your plants carefully. If any start to look sickly, add a little lime into the soil, and stop using coffee grounds. This will raise the pH level slightly. If they still have problems, repot in fresh soil. If you have an outside garden, you might be interested to know some people use coffee grounds as a slug-repelling mulch.

Florence Salama, Vancouver ou can re-use the old soil, if you add more than just bonemeal. I’d suggest a dry, balanced organic fertilizer, and feed the plants a liquid organic fertilizer every week or two.

Marty Boychuck, via email wonder how much larger your new pot is? If it’s very large, your tree may have switched to vegetative growth, because suddenly it has more soil available. When plants are busy producing new stems and leaves, they often give up on flowers and fruit. Too much high-nitrogen fertilizer can produce the same effect. You may need to replant your tree into a pot just a little larger than the original one. Or you could just wait for it to get over its vegetative phase. If you’ve been using high-nitrogen fertilizer, you should stop completely for a few months. When you resume, make sure the fertilizer is balanced. This means all numbers on the bag should be the same. Alternatively, the middle number can be a little

“I have a lot of old soil in container pots from previous years. I have sifted it with a fine strainer. I know the soil has lost its nutrients, but can I use it for planting flowers, herbs, etc. in pots in the patio. Shall I add bonemeal?”

Mustangs stop Rams

Langley built a 14-0 lead and held off the hard-charging South Delta Rams to win 2714 at MAP.

Neither Sunday’s cold nor the third-place South Delta Rams could slow down the Langley Mustangs in their quest for the Vancouver Mainland Football League bantam championship. Buoyed by a 393-yard offensive output, and anchored by yet another solid performance by their defence, the Mustangs defeated the South Delta Rams 27-14 at McLeod Athletic Park. The Mustangs’ defence made the first big play when Cameron Kaulback scooped up a Ram fumble on the Langley 35-yard line. Langley’s offence then showed why it is one of the most explosive units in the VMFL bantam division. With his team facing a thirdand-three on its own 42-yard line, Reagan Doucette broke through the Ram defenders and sprinted 68 yards for the opening touchdown to give Langley a 7-0 lead midway through the first quarter. The Mustangs increased their lead to 14-0 on their next possession, as Doucette, following the

lead blocks of offensive linemen Dylan Twells and Dalton Dietrich, found a seam and ran 72 yards for his second major of the game. The second quarter saw a return to stingy defences on both sides of the field. The Mustangs’ defence continued its strong play, shutting down South Delta at every turn. Led by Justin Brown and Brayden Norcliffe, Langley stymied a Rams’ offence that had averaged just under 30 points per game during the regular season. However, the Rams’ defence also picked up its game, and neither team was able to put any points on the board for the remainder of the first half. The third quarter saw the Rams switch their offence from run to pass orientated, which caught the Mustangs by surprise. South Delta scored its first touchdown of the game to cut the Mustang lead to 14-7 with a little more than seven minutes remaining in the third quarter. Undeterred, the Mustangs’ offence took the field and almost immediately restored the twotouchdown lead. After methodically moving the ball down to the Rams’ 26-yard line with runs, the Mustangs went to the air for the key play of the drive.

Chiefs’ transport troubles make for bumpy one-game trip by Troy Landreville sports@langleyadvance.com

The Langley Chiefs had trouble getting going, on and off the ice, on Tuesday. The Chiefs’ problems started before they even left Langley for a trip up the Coquihalla Highway to Westside, where the

Warriors were waiting to play them. Old Man Winter threw an ice-covered wrench into the team’s plans of leaving at the scheduled 1 p.m. departure time. The team bus’s brakes were frozen. The Chiefs finally left the Langley Events Centre, on a different bus, at 2:30 p.m. and arrived in Westside about an hour before game time. The players are used to getting to visiting rinks around two-and-a-half hours before puck drop, and they were jolted out

of their routine. These travel misadventures may have had a negative effect on the Chiefs, who surrendered four unanswered third period goals in a 7-3 loss to the Warriors at Royal LePage Place. The teams were tied 3-3 after 40 minutes but the final period, scoring-wise, belonged to the Warriors. Even though they were out-scored 4-0 in the third period, the Chiefs were only outshot by a 10-9 margin by the Warriors over that final 20 minute stretch.

“We just never really got noted. “It was a tough day it going, from the drop of all around.” the puck,” Chiefs associate The Chiefs managed to coach Barry Wolff said. stay with the Warriors and “We kept it led 3-2 at close and had one point “We just never chances to on a goal really got it win, but we from Josh just weren’t Hansen at going, from paying attenthe 11:46 the drop of the tion to detail mark of and it caught the middle puck.” up with us.” frame.

into a 6-3 lead before the period was six minutes old. Langley’s other goalscorers were defenceman Brad Haber in the opening frame, and top point getter Matt Ius at the 10:51 mark of the second period. The Chiefs will look to bounce back tonight (Friday) when they host the Surrey Eagles at the Langley Events Centre. The local juniors are right back at it Saturday when they host the Victoria Grizzlies at the LEC. Puck drop for both games is at 7 p.m.

Mustangs on ’Cats claw to Valley runner-up spot to VMFL final High school girls volleyball

The Bobcats fell to Clayton Heights in the Fraser Valley final.

by Troy Landreville sports@langleyadvance.com

At the Fraser Valley Triple A girls volleyball championships, Surrey’s Clayton Heights Night Riders bounced back from an opening-set loss to defeat the Brookswood Bobcats in the championship final 3-1. Set scores were 23-25, 25-21, 25-20, and 25-15. “We were a little nervous being the number-one seed and when Brookswood took game one and were leading 9-4 in the second, it looked like we were in big trouble,” said Clayton Heights head coach Gord Houchen. “But we had already discussed that there would be a point in this tournament where our backs would be against the wall and we would have to pull together to achieve our goal.” Brookswood co-coach Greg Jennens said the second-place finish was a solid accomplishment for the local team. “We entered the tournament as the second seed behind Clayton Heights with a record of 9-3,” Jennens related. “At times throughout the season we struggled a bit with consistency, but played our best ball of the season during the Fraser Valleys and are pleased with our result.” The Bobcats went 2-1 at the Fraser Valleys, with their lone loss coming in the final to Clayton Heights. Previously, they defeated Aldergrove (ranked seventh) and Elgin Park (third). – With files from the Vancouver Province

••• Seeded fifth, the D.W. Poppy Redhawks, finished with a 2-2 record to take fourth place at the Fraser Valley Triple A championships. D.W. Poppy lost a hard fought, five-set match to Elgin Park in the bronze medal match last Thursday. Redhawks’ left-side hitter Marla McFee was named a tournament all-star. “Arguably the best player in the tournament,” Redhawks coach Greg Tener said, of McFee. Tener said leadership from Redhawks captains Danielle Richmond and Alex Allen and strong play from McFee were difference-makers during the tourney. The Redhawks defeated R.E. Mountain and Aldergrove, both in straight sets, and lost to Clayton Heights and Elgin Park during the tournament. “[The Mountain win] was a huge match for us – it meant we wouldn’t have to play Elgin [Park] until the bronze medal game instead of the game before the bronze,” Tener said. Their fourth place finish means the Redhawks join Brookswood as local teams headed to the provincial championships, to be played Dec. 2-4 at Duchess Park Secondary in Prince George. Walnut Grove Gators Walnut Grove exceeded expectations at the Fraser Valley senior girls Quad ‘A’ championships. The Gators, who co-hosted the tournament with Cloverdale’s Lord Tweedsmuir from Nov. 17-19, were seeded 12th and ended up tied for seventh. The Gators opened last Wednesday with a loss to Heritage Woods. The setback put Walnut Grove in a must-win

situation in the double-knockout tournament. The Gator girls responded with a solid three-set sweep over North Surrey last Thursday. “That was a huge win for us,” Gators coach Sandy Herbert said. “We felt really good about it, especially to win in three sets.” The Centennial Centaurs ended the Gators’ season by sweeping them in three sets last Friday. “Centennial didn’t make any mistakes,” Herbert said. In the Fraser Valley final, Port Coquitlam’s Riverside Rapids swept Surrey’s Earl Marriott Mariners in three sets to capture top spot. North Delta’s Seaquam beat Heritage Woods in the bronze medal game. W.J. Mouat, from Abbotsford, won the game deciding the fifth and final Fraser Valley seed into the B.C. championships. Looking back, Herbert said the Gators played well this season, finishing third in their zone and emerging from a nineteam Fraser Valley wildcard tournament. “I think we were competive against some very tough teams this year,” she said. “We had some extremely good matches with some tough competition.” The Gators included Grade 12s Rachel Wollenberg, Jenna Neufeld, Allicia Luck, Kaitlyn Cameron, and Sarah Mahaffey, and Grade 11s Nicole Ratel, Jessica Olszewski, Mikaela Fowler, Stina Scott, and Lauren Fordy. Herbert said Neufeld, a setter, was a workhorse who ran the offence and provided constant leadership. She added that Wollenberg provided encouragement and big swings from her middle position.

…continued from page A33 Quarterback Cory McMurchy lofted the ball deep into Ram territory, and Dallas Korfman fought off a defender and kept his feet in-bounds to give the Mustangs a first and goal at the South Delta two-yard line. The next play saw Doucette punch the ball in for his third touchdown of the game, giving Langley a 21-7 lead going into the fourth quarter. With the cold and the dark taking over, both teams showed a high degree of spirit for the remainder of the contest. South Delta clawed back and scored its second touchdown of the game to again cut the Mustang lead to just seven points early in the fourth quarter. But with time ticking down, Langley changed up its offence, balancing its offensive attack with play-action passes. McMurchy hooked up with Matt Bilmer on a 12-yard pass-and-run to restore Langley’s lead to 27-14 with a little more than six minutes remaining in the game. After that, the Mustangs’ defence took over and snuffed out any hope that South Delta may have had to get back into the game. Defensive linemen Chris Schwartz and Jake Kulak, and defensive backs Jesse Trousil and Cole Isaacson recorded key tackles to end any remaining drives by the Rams. It will be a battle of unbeaten teams for the VMFL bantam title Sunday as the second ranked Mustangs take on the first-place North Surrey Tigers at Minaru Stadium in Richmond. Opening kickoff is 3 p.m.

Tim Stephens' Astral Reflections Aries March 21 - April 19: Intellectual pursuits have top priority. That includes cultural, far travel, educational, publishing, advertising, religious, philosophical and legal affairs. These might run into a couple of unexpected glitches or shocks early and deep into this week, so time your actions for Dec. 4 onward. Government agencies, or your own “background” might be involved. Dive into chores Sunday/Monday, so you’ll have more time when opportunities and exciting emotional prospects appear (Tuesday/Wednesday). Depths, mysteries, sex, other people’s money Friday/Saturday: you might hit a mother lode! Taurus April 20-May 20: Life’s mysteries, research, depth psychology, subconscious desires, lust, finances tied to other people (e.g., stocks, marriage finances, inheritances) rise in importance. These might be imperilled this week, especially if you began a related venture in November. You might need to take quick “crisis action” Thursday/Friday. Or, you could be free of any problems – if so, wait until Saturday onward to plunge into these areas, and/or to make a commitment, change your lifestyle, or invest. Work succeeds midweek. Friendships, loves (and everything listed above) are lucky Friday p.m.! Gemini May 21-June 20: Excitement! You could take major steps in a romance or more mature relationship now, or you might face and seize a huge opportunity such as relocation, a public appearance, a business negotiation/contract. But be aware: you might succeed, and the payment is stress. Or it all might blow up (Sunday-Tuesday a.m. or Thursday/Saturday) especially if this situation began in November. But if it blows up: so what? It clears away six years of tension, liberates you – laugh at life! Midweek’s romantic. Saturday begins, small but growing, the workable opportunities, attractions. Optimism arrives!

Cancer June 21-July 22: Emotionally, a rest period is over. Now you begin two months of intensified, active, communicating, sweet (and sometimes angry, or more likely, competitive) attraction. But don’t lose sight of your main necessity for the next three weeks: work and health. These two – and your dependents, and machinery – face one or two crises or dilemmas this week (Sunday-Tuesday and Thursday/Friday). Be very careful with electricity, computers, driving, tools, especially late week. A project might demand precise, tense attention to complete: give this, and succeed. Romance whispers Thursday/Friday! Leo July 23-Aug. 22: What seemed so romantically alluring in November might meet unexpected events or sexual reactions. Or, speculation and investment quality conflict; or creative urges, projects might trip over the realities that research discovers. Whatever went so brilliantly in November meets the unexpected by Thursday. Leo, whatever happens: 1) be ethical, honest; 2) be alert, realistic. These should show you the right way. Money needs care Sunday/ Monday. Communications, travel, life’s easy Tuesday/ Wednesday. Home, safety, take no chances Thursday! Friday heals. Saturday, love, success begin. Virgo Aug. 23-Sept. 22: I warned you some weeks ago that domestic, property, security and family projects (especially those initiated in November) might hit a shock or snag by this week. It could be a crisis, or simply a snag that needs ironing out. Be patient, diplomatic. Sunday/Monday your energy is high, but everyone seems independent, ready for an argument. Thursday/Friday communications, errands flow swiftly, but an unexpected event could capsize the apple cart. Drive carefully Friday dawn, avoid unsafe tools, avoid computers. Friday p.m., love/ friendship luck! After a hectic week, relax at home Saturday.

JENNY - Lab Ret/Kelpie X/Large/ Young/Female. Sweet energetic girl needs a break. Easy in the home. Loves hiking/swimming/ toys/hugs. playful growl & boisterous with other dogs. Wary of strangers/new situations & will alert bark. Blooms with consistent handlers. A more rural, quiet home may be best. Visit the dogs at Vancouver Animal Shelter 1280 Raymur Ave 604-871-6885.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Libra Sept. 23-Oct. 22: The main emphasis lies on communications, paperwork, errands, travel, siblings and casual friends. These areas face one or two challenges this week, especially Sunday/Monday (philosophical or legal differences?) and Thursday/ Friday (romantic, creative conflicts?). In everything (communication, travel, etc.) your intention is all tied up with a partnership urge – but it is this urge that is really causing unexpected events or disagreements. Somehow, it (the urge to join or merge) is fighting the work you need to get done. By Friday p.m., the conflict’s over, and money luck flows! Scorpio Oct. 23-Nov. 21: Unexpected events could throw a monkey wrench into your money projects, particularly any projects you began in November, especially Sunday/Monday and Thursday/Friday. Do NOT purchase machinery or high tech items before Friday noon. The problem comes from your desire, hidden or not, to seek pleasure, romance, adventure or to take a gamble. You might face a choice: chase romance, or guard your money, gamble or keep your bank account, etc. Despite events, you’ll be optimistic, happy Sunday/Monday! Rest, contemplate mid-week. Your energy, charisma soar Thursday/Friday – this eve’s lucky! Sagittarius Nov. 22-Dec. 21: Watch your temper – you’re riding a wave of energy, charisma, hope, loving emotions and creative, gambling pizzazz – but this could make you impatient, too, especially with parents/kids, domestic situations, real estate, security provisions. These have caused you stress and tension for seven years, and you’re at the fed-up stage! So there might be one last explosion, especially Sunday/ Monday or Thursday/Friday. Listen: be safe, but don’t repress your temper. Have a tantrum, then look for common ground. You’ll find it Friday eve, successfully start to implement it Saturday onward.

Nov. 28 - Dec. 4 Capricorn Dec. 22-Jan. 19: Messages, information (or distribution realities) might interfere with a plan that involved government, an institution, or a “retreat.” Protect yourself from gossip. Take care in writing, speech, driving and with electrical tools. The most “accident prone days are Sunday, Monday and Friday (morning). This is a time of rest, solitude, peace and contemplation – seek an environment that promotes these. That said, your social popularity begins to revive, and you grow more talkative, more interested in wisdom and learning. Complete obligations. Happiness, optimism visit Friday! Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 18: A conﬂict between your hopes and your “available cash” might reach a climax this week, especially Sunday/Monday and Thursday/ Friday. Well, reality is reality, you gotta work with what you have. Once you accept this, you can start achieving, and your hopes will rise. In general, your popularity is rising, light romance visits, and your money picture does keep getting better! Bosses, VIPs and parents favour you again, into January – take advantage (especially Friday!). Tackle governmentrelated chores now, as a slow-down will commence here soon. Love, Tuesday/Wednesday, Saturday! Pisces Feb. 19-March 20: Relationships need patience, gentleness early week. A temperamental boss, parent or VIP could act now, especially Sunday to Tuesday (argument) and Thursday/Friday (sudden action). Be alert, good-natured, diplomatic – deflect attacks. (A VIP’s motive? Perhaps a suspicion that you are money-hungry. Deeper, it’s a power struggle.) Wisdom, gentle love, and a travel, legal or educational project return, lasting to early January. These are lucky Friday p.m. Friends begin to appear. Still, your main December goal is career, ambition. Secrets, revelations, “major money” Tuesday/Wednesday. timstephens@shaw.ca • Reading: 416-686-5014

Be a borderline bad influence. It’s hard to be good all the time. Thankfully, there’s a vehicle like the Volkswagen Tiguan to indulge your occasional vices. Making a case for the good influence side, you’ll find features like an Electronic Stabilization Programme (ESP), available 4MOTION all-wheel drive system, and room for five with sliding back seats to take all their stuff. Then, on the wild side, you’ll ﬁnd a 2.0L turbocharged 200-horsepower engine, available panoramic sunroof and Dynaudio® 300-watt sound system. To find out more about how being bad can be so good, visit vw.ca.

Langley business

Saab finds a home at Springman’s A passion for cars has brought two companies together. Springman’s Auto Centre is proud to announce a first – it is now the first Saab dealer in British Columbia since the Swedish car company was reborn. Victor Muller, the Dutch entrepreneur who started luxury car company, Spyker, took over Saab in early 2010. He saved it from being shut down by former owner General Motors. Muller is a car guy and he believes in the brand. And when brothers Dan and Rueben Springman started selling cars almost 30 years ago, they did so because they were car guys. “My brother and I have always loved cars,” said Dan Springman, co-owner of Springman’s Auto Centre in Langley on the Langley Bypass. “We have a passion for the automobile. When we found out that Saab was being given new life by someone who shared that passion, we knew we had to be part of

Springman’s Auto Centre sales manager Jason Powell stood outside the showroom and lot at 19550 Langley Bypass. that,” he added. The brothers started Springman Motors in Langley in 1986, selling preowned vehicles, becoming a Saturn dealer in the early 1990s. Today, Dan is the general

manager and Rueben is the service and body shop manager. Springman’s has become a true family business with cousins and a niece working there and, of course, their dedicated staff is a huge part

of the success of the dealership. “Our goal has always been to deliver a quality product backed by excellent service,” said Dan. “Saab has a very loyal and dedicated following,” he

added. “We know that fits in very well with our reputation as a top provider of sales, service, and auto body repairs in Vancouver.” Saab is making a statement with current and brand new models coming to market. The 9-3 Sport Sedan, Convertible, and SportCombi are the most recognizable models, available in four- or six-cylinder versions, with either all-wheel drive (AWD) or front wheel drive (FWD). Coming soon, the redesigned 9-5 sedan will make its debut in the Springman’s showroom. It’s a luxury sedan in the styling loyal to Saab’s roots in the aeronautic industry. The car comes as a fourcylinder turbo or six-cylinder turbo AWD and includes the latest technology, such as a lane-departure warning system. And in April, 2011, the brand new 9-4X will debut at the Los Angeles Auto Show. A mid-size crossover SUV, the 9-4X is sure to be a big winner, boasting all the elements that make up a true Saab. continued on page A44…
