Police have hired a forensic veterinarian

to see if the mysterious deaths of cats in

Langley and Maple Ridge were caused by

humans.

The move comes as the B.C. SPCA and

Ridge Meadows and Langley RCMP detach-

ments probe the suspicious deaths of cats

in Brookswood and the central Maple Ridge

area.

There have been a high number of

reported cases in Maple Ridge and Langley,

which occurred between June, 2011 and

this month.

At this time, it has not been clearly estab-

lished that all of the reported cat deaths are

the direct result of human actions, as it can

be extremely easy to confuse the actions of

a natural predator with those of a human,

police said.

“The joint investigation with the SPCA is

ongoing, and we’re engaging experts in this

field,” said Insp. Dave Fleugel, operations

officer for Ridge Meadows RCMP.

“Ridge Meadows RCMP Serious Crimes

Unit is regularly collaborating with SPCA’s

investigators and Langley RCMP Serious

Crimes.

Police crime analysts are also tracking and

analyzing the reports, and we have been in

contact with the RCMP’s Behavioural Sci-

ence Group, who profile and track deviant,

and unusual criminal behaviour.

“We have received tips from citizens,

which we are responding to (and) I encour-

age anyone else with information

to call the RCMP or SPCA.”

The RCMP has been working

alongside the SPCA since the

original reports surfaced last year.

There was a significant gap of

reported incidents over the win-

ter months, and the number of

reports increased this spring.

Insp. Stephan Drolet, the opera-

tions support officer at the Lan-

gley RCMP detachment, said that

the Lower Mainland District Inte-

grated Forensic Identification Ser-

vice is helping to determine if

human DNA can be recovered.

Dr. Melinda Merck, an American forensic

veterinarian, has been hired to deter-

mine if the deaths are the result of

human action, or a predatory ani-

mal. The veterinarian is performing

necropsies to find the exact cause

of death.

“We have placed a high priority

on getting to the bottom of this, and

commit to continue to work with

the SPCA, and other experts, to pro-

vide the community with answers,”

Fleugel said.

Anyone with any information is

asked to contact SPCA Const. Eilleen

Drever at 604-575-2249, Ridge Mead-

ows RCMP at 604-463-6251, or Langley

RCMP at 604-532-3200.

Stolen motorbike T-bones car, burns

MONIQUE TAMMINGATimes Reporter

A stolen motorcycle burst into

flames when it T-boned a Honda

Civic on Thursday evening in Wil-

loughby.

A 20-year-old woman from Port

Coquitlam was making a left turn

from a church parking lot in the

20300 block of 82 Avenue when

the motorcycle, which police say

was speeding, came over the hill

and drove right into the driver’s

side of her car.

The motorcyclist, a 21-year-old

from Surrey, was thrown from

the bike and his helmet came off

before he hit the ground, said Lang-

ley RCMP spokesperson Cpl. Holly

Marks.

The driver of the blue Honda had

the good sense to climb out the

passenger door as her car caught

fire. The aftermath shows that even

her headrest burned.

Both drivers were taken to hos-

pital. The bike rider’s leg is severely

injured and he also has head inju-

ries, said Marks. The female driver

didn’t suffer any serious injuries.

The bike was stolen in White

Rock, Marks said.

Police will be pursuing charges

of stolen property.

The Township of Langley, in co-operation

with Metro Vancouver Parks is trying to mini-

mize the amounts of slaps, hits and scratch-

ing locals will do this year.

Starting last week, the Township and Metro

Parks began conducting periodic aerial larvi-

cide treatments via helicopter over mosquito

breeding sites located on Brae and McMillan

Islands in Fort Langley. The Township’s nui-

sance mosquito control contractor, Culex

Environmental, is carrying out the aerial

treatments.

One year, Metro Parks decided not to use

larvicide treatments on Brae Island and an

outbreak of mosquitoes nearly shut down

camping that summer. It hurt tourism in the

village, as everyone was being attacked by

swarms of the blood sucking insects. The

Mosquito Control Hotline is 604-872-1912.

NATASHA JONESTimes Reporter

Municipal guidelines dictate that build-

ings in Fort Langley’s commercial core must

meet and respect the village’s heritage.

Eric Woodward has taken that a step

further by naming a new commercial/resi-

dential development after two enterprising

pioneers, David Coulter and John Berry.

Woodward bought the northwest corner

of the former IGA site, at Glover Road and

Mavis Street, and, adding it to the Frontier

Building Supplies property he bought sev-

eral years ago, is developing the Coulter

Berry Building.

It will sit on the site of a general store

owned by Coulter and Berry in the late

1800s.

A school teacher in Ontario for 15 years,

Coulter came to Fort Langley in 1897 on his

way to the Yukon goldfields, and stopped to

visit friends Hugh Davidson and Robert Rid-

dell, owners of the Murray’s Corners Store

in Murrayville. Coulter Court in Bedford

Landing is named after him.

Coulter contacted Berry, also a school

teacher from Ontario, about forming a part-

nership to buy the Murray’s Corners Store.

They did, and together also bought the

general store in Fort Langley. Berry settled

in Langley, and farmed in the area for many

years.

The building, which will occupy 200

feet of Glover Road frontage, is a live-work-

shop concept, said Kurt Alberts, an urban

planning consultant whose role was to

guide the public process in the project. Pre-

sented to the public in late May, the project

received mostly enthusiastic response.

The building, which includes a central

breezeway which will connect Glover Road

to the new IGA, will have 10 apartments

on the top floor, offices on the second, and

shops on the bottom.

There will be parking underground for

58 cars.

Woodward lives in Fort Langley, and as

president of the village’s Business Improve-

ment Association, his focus is to revitalize

the village’s commercial core.

The planned development will be com-

bined with the land formerly occupied by

Frontier Building Supplies, which closed in

May, 2011.

For Woodward, it was important to him

personally to add a sense of vibrancy to Fort

Langley while respecting its past.

“The corner of Glover Road and Mavis

Avenue is the most important corner in Fort

Langley,” he said.

“It is critical to get it right, for all of Fort

Langley. I take this responsibility very seri-

ously. Creating an ideal mixture of vibrancy,

and office and residential uses within a qual-

ity design is extremely important to me.”

Woodward has been involved in every

detail, and says that with the mix of retail,

office and residential within one building

“we can begin to add more consistent

weekday and evening activity to the com-

mercial area, while providing residences

adjacent to the local grocery store and local

services. I think it is a great combination.”

The one and two bedroom apartments

will range in size from 621 square feet to

1,335 square feet.

The southern end of the building over-

looks the former Trove Cottage, now Beat-

niks bistro, at 9194 Glover Rd. So that the

Coulter Berry building does not appear

too imposing, architect Norm Davis, also a

Fort resident, has tamed the south end by

stepping down two storeys. This end, Wood-

ward explained, will have a rooftop patio

with mezzanine and ground level entrance.

He is anticipating at least one other res-

taurant in the building at the ground level.

Other ground level tenants will be a mix

of shops and services which, combined

with the new IGA in a plaza-like ambience,

“will appeal to both local residents and visi-

tors,” Woodward said.

The parkade not only provides sufficient

off-street parking, it also allows much more

versatility for the site.

“The ‘rear’ is actually frontage facing the

IGA,” Woodward said. “And the breezeway,

lane way and rear area form a pedestrian

plaza that will be another unique aspect

of Fort Langley, unlike anything we have

here.”

Woodward calls the development “a team

effort of landowners, local merchants, Town-

ship staff, and mayor and council.”

And, he added, “hopefully this is only the

beginning.”

The City of Langley website was hacked

last Wednesday night by a group calling

themselves the LatinHackTeam against cor-

ruption of the governments.

The home page was replaced with a black

screen and red and yellow lettering telling

users the site was now owned by “Admin-

P4nic — a Latin Hack Team against corrup-

tion of the governments.” They said “follow

us on Twitter.”

Langley City chief administrative officer

Francis Cheung said the hacking caught

them by surprise when the page went down

from 6:40 p.m. to 7:45 p.m. It took the city

less than an hour to restore the site and

erase all the hackers information.

It was the first time the City’s website had

been hacked.

“We don’t know why we were targeted

and the message on the site was quite cryp-

tic, to be honest,” said Cheung. “It could be

because we were out there on the web try-

ing to promote the free Wi-Fi we are offering

in the City.”

Everything on the City’s website is pub-

lic, he said. There aren’t any sensitive files

on the site and it’s not linked to municipal

databases.

The website is run by a third party so the

city is currently working with them to pre-

vent hacking in the future.

Submitted The new Coulter Berry Building on the corner of Mavis Street and Glover Road in Fort Langley will include apartments, office space and shops.

Fort Langley gets facelift


With gas prices hitting the

$1.50 per litre mark, Langley

RCMP are seeing an increase

in gas thefts, but one type of

thievery could cost lives, said

Cpl. Patrick Davies.

Since May 24, there have been

around a dozen separate cases of

gas theft, most involve siphoning

gas from vehicles. But more than

six cases, in Willoughby, Willow-

brook and another further south

in Walnut Grove involve someone

drilling a hole into a gas tank.

Getting underneath a vehicle

and drilling holes into a metal

gas tank could cause a spark

and start a fire or an explosion,

points out Davies. The potential

for danger is high and for the

little amount of gas that can be

taken, it can’t be worth risking

life and limb, he said.

Plus, the cost to replace a gas

tank for the vehicle owner can

be more than $500.

Other thefts in Langley have

involved siphoning from cars,

trucks and construction site

machinery.

The last time gas prices sky-

rocketed like this was in 2008.

Police across the Lower Mainland

noticed an increase in gas theft

then too.

Gas theft on the rise

Langley’s “Scooter Man” has died.

At 93 years old, Cliff Steele lived his life with his foot on the throttle and that’s how he died, said his daughter Darlene.

“Dad was a man of action and he died in action,” she said on Monday.

On Friday, after working on the scooters he was repairing, he walked from his garage to the adjoining door to his home and collapsed.

He died not long after in hos-pital, from a ruptured aneurism in his aorta.

“He died very suddenly and was in no pain,” she said.

For the past five years, the spry senior had been quietly buying used scooters and electric wheel-chairs and fixing them up to give to people in need, for free, no strings attached.

“I refurbish them and give them to people who need them. It’s a free service I’ve been offering and I’ve given away around 20 of them,” Steele told The Times in March.

With a background in mechan-ics, refurbishing scooters was a hobby and pleasure, he said.

‘He died doing what he loved’

WORKSAFE INVESTIGATION UNDERWAY

Tree faller who died in accident namedMONIQUE TAMMINGATimes Reporter

Lance Klody was the man who died in a

freak accident while falling a tree on Thurs-

day, May 31 in Aldergrove.

WorkSafe BC said it continues its inves-

tigation into why the bucket Klody was in

broke away from the boom it was attached

to, leaving the 50-year-old man to fall more

than 60 feet to the ground. He was pro-

nounced dead at the scene.

He was attempting to bring down a 130-

foot Douglas fir.

WorkSafe BC and the B.C. Coroners Ser-

vice spent sometime at the scene in the

North Otter area.

Messages from those who knew Klody

say he owned his own tree falling busi-

ness, Freelance Tree Services, based out of

Abbotsford.

He was well liked and is missed by many

friends in Langley and Abbotsford, along

with family on the Island and elsewhere.

According to his obituary, he loved his two

dogs and his brother was looking to find a

new home for them.

According to WorkSafe BC’s Megan John-

ston, investigations like these usually take

months to conclude. WorkSafe BC does not

comment on an investigation while it is still

taking place, she said.

Some comments on The Times’ website

from fellow tree fallers say Klody was likely

pushing the tree with his bucket when it

became dislodged from the boom. Pushing a

tree is common practice, said one tree faller.

In Facebook replies, some wondered if he

was wearing a safety harness. All that informa-

tion should come out of the investigation.

Board refusesto hear appeal of Garnett decision


The Langley board of education has refused to

hear R.C. Garnett parent Clint Lee’s appeal against

changing his son’s elementary school from a K-7

to a K-5 configuration.

“It doesn’t come as a big surprise,” said Lee

about the board’s decision. “In my opinion they

are afraid to debate the merits of my arguments I

have presented them, so they have refused me on

technical grounds.”

The board wrote to Lee that he didn’t file his

notice of appeal within the 30-day deadline from

when the board announced R.C. Garnett would

switch from K-7 to K-5. Any student or parent can

appeal a decision of the board that “significantly

affects the education, health or safety of the stu-

dent.” Should the board accept to hear a parent’s

appeal, the parent or parents can present a case

to the trustees.

The board wrote to Lee that his reasons for

filing an appeal late weren’t strong enough to

ignore the 30-day rule.

“To me, it shows that once again the board isn’t

putting the needs of the education of children in

front of their technicalities,” said Lee.

He said the decision is devastating but he is still

mulling over his next move. Under the School Act

he can appeal the decision, he can take the board

to Supreme Court or do nothing.

His son is in Grade Four now and will be

moved to four schools within five years. His son

will attend R.C. Garnett next year, Lynn Fripps the

next, then change over to the new middle school

for Grades 7 and 8 before switching to Mountain

Secondary.

“There is the option of moving to another juris-

diction where schooling is more stable and there

is the option of private school,” he said. He is sad-

dened but what has happened to his son’s school.

“I was thanked by a lot of parents for filing this

appeal. There is a feeling of helplessness among

parents and most have lost the fight in them,

which is unfortunate.”

His appeal argues that the board must consider

other means to alleviate overcrowding at R.C. Gar-

nett first, including the removal of non-catchment

area and non-school district children from his

son’s school.

In Lee’s appeal, he cites studies that show a

student’s academic performance is severely hin-

dered when being forced to switch schools so

many times. He also cites statistics on school bus

crashes and worries for his son’s safety as he is

bused two catchments away to school.

He was able to refur-

bish up to three scooters

a day, if given the product,

he said.

Not only did he give

the scooters away, which

cost around $4,000 to

buy new, but he also did

all the maintenance on

them for free for the dura-

tion of the equipment’s

existence.

With 20 already given

away, he was in regular

contact with most of the

people who own the

scooters now.

“A lot of these people

were housebound before,

and they get a new life

when they get a scooter,”

he said.

Steele had recently

called The Times to

say that since the article

came out about him, the

response had “been out-

standing.”

Not only were many

people willing to donate

scooters, but he had met

a man willing to do the

electrical aspects of the

scooters and another

who volunteered to pick

up and drop off the scoot-

ers that were donated or

bought by Steele.

Darlene has worked all

weekend to get all the

information about those

waiting for a scooter

from Steele.

“Everyone that was on

the wait list will get a

scooter,” she said.

But she has asked that

no more scooters be

donated.

When The Times

asked why Steele was

wanting to donate his

time for others, his reply

was simple: “When life

has been good to you, do

good for others.”

He lived life to the

fullest, even getting his

second hole in one at

Langley Golf Centre last

week.

Recently, a teacher at

an elementary school

showed the article about

Steele to his Grade 7 stu-

dents and asked them to

write a letter about what

they think of his acts of

kindness.

Luckily, he got to read

every single “heartwarm-

ing” letter just last week

when they arrived in the

mail.

“These 11-year-old kids’

words were so thought-

ful, so touching,” said Dar-

lene.

A celebration of Steele’s

life will be held at one of

his favourite places, the

Langley Seniors Centre,

on Saturday, June 16 at

2 p.m.

Bikers can gear up and explore

some of the most scenic roads

ADVERTORIAL

In health news these days, each story seems to bring information which confl icts with the last! But now, a study out of Germany, with

over 40,000 participants, fi nally says that coffee drinkers are at no greater risk of illnesses such as heart disease or cancer than their non-coffee drinking counterparts – and may, in fact, have a slightly lower risk of type 2 diabetes. Not enough to start drinking coffee, but enjoy it if you do.

A beverage you may want to seriously consider giving up is sodas – and not just for the reason you may think. Certainly, regular sodas are laden with empty calo-ries, but replacing them with diet sodas is not a healthy move. Replacing sodas (even diet ones) with water makes you twice as likely to lose 5% of your body weight (that proverbial 5-10 lbs). Plus, daily soda consumers are at a 43% higher risk of suffering a heart attack!

Something to increase is dietary fi bre – most of us are getting less than half of what our bodies need. Suffi cient fi bre intake is associated with a reduced risk

of cancer, obesity, diabetes and heart disease. There are 2 types of fi bre (soluble and insoluble) and both are important for optimal health. Fibre comes from a variety of sources including bran, oats, whole grains, fruits & veggies (especially their skins) and seeds.

Many people seek supplements to improve health and a commonly used one is selenium. It has been proposed that it reduces heart disease, cancer and diabetes plus a variety of other claims. However, most of us are getting more than suffi cient selenium from our diets – and excessive levels actually increase the risk of developing type 2 diabetes! No more than 60 mcg per day is needed from all sources, including diet.

Our pharmacists can help you wade through the sea of information to try to separate fact from fi ction. Weird or wacky? Bring us your questions.

Modifications to a retaining wall on the north

side of Fraser Highway have delayed the comple-

tion of the road widening project from the Langley

City border at Old Yale Road to just west of 216

Street.

Paul Cordeiro, the Township’s manager of trans-

portation engineering, said that the contractor for

the retaining wall has had to undertake modifica-

tions after it had already been erected.

Adding to the delay is the Township’s decision

to replace two culverts, and several days of con-

struction have been lost because of poor weather,

Cordeiro said.

Although the pedestrian underpass was paved in

time for the Langley Walk in early May, lighting still

needs to be installed.

Paving and the installation of concrete barriers

dividing the eastbound and westbound lanes are

likely to occur during the first two weeks of July.

The project was initially scheduled to be fin-

ished by the end of this month. It will now be

“substantially” complete by the middle of July,

Cordeiro said.

When the widened section of Fraser Highway

is complete, it will include a shared bicycle and

pedestrian pathway along the south side of Fraser

Highway. This path, reached by the sidewalk on

the south side of Fraser Highway, will lead walkers

to the upgraded pedestrian underpass which was

once used as a passageway for cows to travel under

the road from one pasture to another.

The total cost of the project is $4.2 million, half

of which is funded by TransLink.

It’s not the last of road improvement projects for

Fraser Highway. The Township is currently in the

design stage to widen the road between 228 Street

and the 23500 block.

WE SAY

No need foromnibus bill

The Conservativce government is set to pass Bill C-38, an omnibus budget bill which includes

amendments and changes to many statutes.

This has prompted a massive backlash from a number of groups, notably environmental groups. One aspect of their protest was the voluntary blacking out of a number of websites on June 4.

While some of their rhetoric is overblown, it is puzzling why a majority Conservative government feels it needs to proceed in this way. If it wishes to amend specific statutes, why not do so, without packaging a huge variety of changes in one bill?

The Conservatives got used to doing this in their five years as a minority government. It was one way to keep at least one opposition party on side — put something in the budget bill that they wanted, and they would vote for it.

It was an understandable tactic. The government had to compromise to the degree that it would propose legislation that one of its opponents would back. In fact, the Conservatives did have to go to the polls in 2008 and 2011 after it became clear that no opposition party was willing to back them any longer.

Now there is a majority government. No longer does the government have to keep one opposition party on side. And that’s fine. The parliamentary system is an adversarial one, with government and opposition on different sides of almost every issue.

That’s why such omnibus bills don’t seem to make senese. All they do is hamper the public from paying closer attention to what the government’s plans are, and at the same time, raise fears which in many cases are exaggerated or non-existent.

If the government doesn’t want to spend too much time on any given bill, it can invoke closure. There is no longer any stigma about doing so, and the public recognizes the need for the government to be able to enact its plans after there has been reasonable time for debate.

It seems that, with some moves like this omnibus budget bill, the Conservatives are deliberately provoking their opponents. While there may be a desire for political vengeance, they need to remember that their majority was granted to them by voters in 2011, only after a five-year testing period.

That majority can easily be taken away by voters in the next election.

THEY SAY

Grads face challenges

It’s grad season. High school seniors are in the final days of their formative education before moving

on to post-secondary studies, perhaps travel or maybe the work world.

Simon Fraser University, BCIT and Douglas College are holding grand ceremonies to bestow degrees and diplomas.

It’s a time of transition for students, as they emerge from the schools, teachers and friends they’ve known for so many years and step into new worlds, with new challenges, new demands.

It’s a time for them to reflect on what they’ve accomplished and to begin charting the path for the next phase of their lives.

The only thing certain is the uncertainty of what lies ahead. Economies in North America and Europe are sputtering. The booms in China and India have quieted.

Unemployment is up, wages are down, the social safety net is slowly unraveling as governments around the world can no longer sustain the cost of helping their citizens through tough times, or into retirement.

Some experts say we’re on the brink of a global recession.

But none of that will dull the gleaming smiles of those grads as they march up the aisle to receive their parchment, or diminish their pride of accomplishment.

After all, every generation of grads seems to have challenges to face, whether it’s the rising cost of education, changing technology, diminishing job markets, inflation, deflation, debt, sometimes even war.

Somehow, they persevere. Many thrive. Most will become upstanding citizens, carving out their little corner of the world.

Some will become leaders, improving everyone’s world.

For that we thank them all, and invite them into the world with open arms.

—Burnaby News Leader(Black Press)

Council should meet more oftenLong stretches between meetings cause a backup

Langley Township council mem-

bers received a substantial pay

raise in December, just after

six of them were easily re-elected,

despite (or perhaps because of) a

huge field of challengers.

New mayor Jack Froese is adjust-

ing to his position, and seems to be keeping

things moving along at council meetings. He is

accessible, open, friendly and works hard to get

along with everybody.

Members of council seem to be getting along

well. Even Councillor Kim Richter is seeing

many of her motions seconded, something that

rarely happened in earlier years. The tension of

the past term on council seems to be a thing of

the past.

One thing that seems hard to understand,

though, is the limited number of council meet-

ings. On Monday, council held its first meeting in

almost a month — the last regular meeting was

on May 14.

Because of the long interval, there were

numerous requests for delegations, a variety of

business at both afternoon and evening meet-

ings and a public hearing on several bylaws.

This means that everyone involved, and that

includes members of the public, has their time

compressed, because council has to work its

way through a lengthy and detailed agenda. This

is not fair to either councillors, staff or the pub-

lic.

Council needs to take a close look at its

meeting schedule and ensure that there are

enough meetings so it is able to consider

public business in a more deliberate manner.

Given the amount of business that built up

over the course of a month, there

should have been a council meet-

ing held in late May.

If council members are satis-

fied with the meeting schedule

and the amount of time they

have to listen to the public and

consider staff recommendations, then there

is even more reason to rescind the big pay

raises.

Do councillors really deserve almost $43,000

a year for a part-time job, when they meet 15

to 20 times per year? Yes, there are committee

meetings and community activities, but these

can hardly be considered as excessive extra

work.

Council members do attend the Federation

of Canadian Municipalities (many of them

just went off to Saskatoon) and the Union of

B.C. Municipalities conventions, but all their

expenses are paid. Many also make additional

money by serving on outside boards and com-

mittees.

There was considerable public concern over

councillors getting an almost 20 per cent raise

in December. Council is setting up a committee

to look into the way its pay raises are awarded,

but citizens aren’t holding their breath that

there will be any move to reduce those hefty

pay raises.

There should be an equal amount of con-

cern about the minimal number of meetings

of Township council. Its calendar calls for one

more meeting in June, two in July, none in

August and the first meeting of the fall season

on Sept. 10.

Does this seem like an excessive workload?

Editor: Langley Township’s debt per per-

son rose 175 per cent over last year, from

$275 per person to a whopping $759 per

person. It’s time to pull in the reins. So do

we really need to spend $500,000 on an

“extension” to a horse trail that very few

use?

Three lobby groups have considerable

influence on the majority of Township

council — the horse industry, developers

and unions. They are great at lobbying and

get their votes counted, unlike the silent

majority. The definition of a “lobby” is to

attempt to influence or sway, as a public

official toward a desired action. If we don’t

get out and vote we will end up with the

same as we have now. It will never change

and may get worse. Taxes keep going up,

but our real needs are put on the back

burner.

As a result of my letter to the editor

(published March 27), regarding budget

deliberations, along comes lobbyist Peter

Thiessen, as a delegation to council from

the Back Country Horsemen. This was on

April 11. He now added joggers, recre-

ational cyclists and dog walkers to the trail.

All this lobbying is for $500,000, which has

been approved by council to extend a trail

from 256 Street to Aldergrove Lake.

Thiessen claims the existing trail from

Campbell Park to 256 Street is a well-used

recreational corridor, popular with dog

walkers, joggers, recreational cyclists and

equestrians. I have viewed the South Lan-

gley trail at least eight times at different

times of the week, including weekends.

Each time the weather was excellent, and

combined I saw only four horses, two jog-

gers, seven recreational cyclists and three

dog walkers.

So what’s with the misinformation given

by Thiessen? I guess the taxpayer-funded

1,322-acre Campbell Valley Park just isn’t

big enough for these horse owners, who

make up less five per cent of the approxi-

mate 106,000 residents in the Township of

Langley.

The horse industry claims

to generate a huge amount

of tax dollars. Not so, when

compared to others.

For example: Thunderbird

Show Park is on 84 acres

and pays property tax of

$15,694, of which $3,810

goes towards protection

services, and $5,488 towards

schools. Thunderbird Show

Stables is on 156 acres and pays $10,570 in

property tax, with $2,840 towards protec-

tion services and $3,389 towards schools.

Not far away, at Gloucester Industrial Park,

a business on 23 acres, which by the way

employs 600 people, and has no transit

services, pays $589,849 in property taxes,

of which $160,357 goes towards protec-

tion services and $104,703 goes towards

schools. This business also pays $6,000 for

water.

In reviewing the Township’s businesses

by industry, horse-related businesses would

be among those at the bottom. The source

is the Township’s business licence database.

Most of the horse-related businesses would

be considered small business and most

small businesses pay very little tax.

Horses do not give us sustenance like

cows, chickens, turkeys, sheep, goats etc.,

and it takes huge tracts of land just to

produce enough food to feed a horse.

There are two and one half times as many

dogs as there are horses in the Township.

Over $350,000 is collected in dog licence

fees yearly. So why not license the horse

and use that income towards the trail and

towards picking up horse poop. After all,

horses are covered by the same bylaws as

dogs.

I like horses and see more horses and

riders on my front street, almost every day

— more than I’ve seen using the South Lan-

gley trail. But their owners should be more

responsible and less demanding.

Dennis Townsend,Langley

Editor: I wanted to thank Times sports

reporter Gary Ahuja for the ongoing coverage

of our local athletes. As our kids are growing

they are taking more interest in the paper, and

especially sports.

My son (11) often points out older siblings

of his friends or his sister’s friends. Just this

week he gets to point out his sister.

I have to admit that, until the last two years,

I did not really notice the sports section but

now that our children and their friends are

more involved and advancing in their sports,

it’s awesome to see them recognized. Thank

you for your continued involvement in recog-

nizing sports and its positive input into our

community.

Sandy Rolfe,Langley

Editor: In the June 7 edition, the car-

toon refers to Big Ben being renamed. I am

appalled at the lack of information and knowl-

edge displayed by the person who made

the cartoon, the editor of the paper and the

proofreaders who did not catch the glitch.

You have incorrectly assumed the tower

depicted at Westminster Abbey is known as

Big Ben. It isn’t. Big Ben refers to the large

main bell in the tower and was so named (Big

Ben). The tower itself (if it ever did have a

name) is not Big Ben. Check it out online, its

all available.

Bob Prest,Langley

Editor’s note — Mr. Prest is correct. The cartoonist was making a general reference to Big Ben, which is one of London’s best-known attractions. The bell itself is not being renamed.

GREAT SPORTS COVERAGE

BIG BEN KEEPS ITS NAME

Most police officers do a great job

Housing on farmland not good land useEditor: This is a response to Tod

McGovern’s letter (The Times, June 7)

and development on and around Trinity

Western on Agricultural Land Reserve

(ALR) and Rural Reserve land.

Daily I drive by the recently-erected

Development Proposal signs at the cor-

ner of Glover Road and Highway 10. I

shake my head in disbelief.

How could Metro, the ALR, and Town-

ship even consider turning more fertile

Fraser Valley farmland into housing? We

now have foreign investors buying up

our ‘rare’ valley farmland in huge swaths

at an alarming rate, because they see the

tremendous agricultural value in such a

rich natural endowment. They did not

have the foresight nor wisdom to save

farmland in their own countries.

Why would Langley even consider

such a development proposal on what is

historic Hudson’s Bay Company farmland,

and without a doubt some of our region’s

most beautiful natural geography?

Please tell me who on council and on

the ALR committee is for this, and they

will most certainly not be getting my

vote for a further term.

Let’s cut the crap, folks. This selfish

greedy nibbling away at the ALR and Rural

Reserve boundaries is about nothing other

than property development profit, and

who stands to make a quick buck by sacri-

ficing this land (our kids’ land) forever.

Greg Ewasiuk,Langley

Editor’s note — To answer the ques-tion, all members of Langley Township council, except Councillors Michelle Sparrow, David Davis and Kim Rich-ter, voted to allow housing on the Wall farm, the development he refers to.

Editor: Thank you for your editorial

(The Times, June 5) on the work of the

RCMP in the Angus Mitchell case.

I noticed that daily newspapers

devoted many pages to the heroic

actions of the RCMP during a very tense

day (Wednesday, May 30), when they

issued a warning about Mitchell, and

then confronted him in Maple Ridge.

Not only did these police officers from

all divisions protect the citizens from

further carnage by this individual, but

they put themselves directly in harm’s

way from a very dangerous person. They

did not use their weapons until they

were fired upon, and even then they

participated in the attempts to save this

man’s life, including calling for a life

flight helicopter.

What I didn’t see in the dailies was a

large headline expressing our gratitude

as citizens for what they did for all us

that day. I for one am so thankful that

they were able to protect us all, as the

day unfolded.

Recent news coverage has stated that

RCMP Commissioner Bob Paulson is

displeased at being hamstrung in dealing

with the few bad apples that make the

news all of the time. He clearly points

out that the RCMP Act needs to be

changed to give him the power to carry

out the actions that all of us — includ-

ing a whole lot of RCMP members —

want him to do.

I have a suggestion. Instead of publicly

bashing the RCMP as a group, what the

media and the citizens should be doing

is turning the spotlight on the Members

of Parliament who have the ability to

make these changes.

The RCMP are not the only profession-

als that have a few bad apples amongst

them, but they are likely the only profes-

sion that can’t get rid of these people

because of a law that needs to be

changed.

By all means, publicly embarrass the

RCMP member who acted inappropri-

ately, but please don’t lump all of the

amazing, hard-working people who

put their lives on the line for us, and

are there the minute we call 911. They

deserve a public thank you.

MIRANDA GATHERCOLETimes Reporter

Students in Langley

struggling with basic

math skills will now

have the opportunity

to get extra, thanks to

efforts from the Lan-

gley School District

Foundation.

A total of $51,000

was raised at the sev-

enth annual Grand

Prix Gala, held at Thun-

derbird Show Park on

June 3, which will be

used to purchase “Do

the Math” kits for the

school district.

Nearly 70 per cent

of high school students

who do not graduate

from Grade 12 are pre-

vented from graduating

by poor math skills,

said Susan Cairns, exec-

utive director of the

Langley School District

Foundation.

“A lot of times what

happens is some kids

miss the concepts

early on, but it’s not

really recognized,” she

said. “They keep get-

ting passed and going

through the system

until about Grade

10. Then it becomes

clear they can’t do

math properly, they’ve

missed it along the way.

That’s quite tragic, they

can’t go on to univer-

sity programs and a

lot of times they don’t

graduate at all.”

The kits are designed

to teach these kids the

basic math concepts to

help students who have

fallen behind catch up.

Last year, money

raised at the annual

event went to fur-

nishing schools with

the online Kurzweil

software — a read-

ing, writing and study

skills program to help

students with learning

disabilities learn at the

same grade-level as

their classmates.

This year’s grand

prix event featured a

world-class horse jump-

ing competition, wine

tasting, gourmet food

and a silent auction

which raised $10,000.

“Even though it was

a little chilly, the event

went very well. People

enjoyed it, the venue

was fantastic and the

horses, wine tasting,

hors d’oeuvres and

silent auction,” Cairns

said.

Safety concerns have prompted

the Township to prohibit left turns

from 216 Street onto northbound

Glover Road.

The change is due to come into

effect today (Tuesday) when Town-

ship crews install the signs. Crews

have already paved and painted lines

to denote the change.

As well, 25 metres of shoulder

width will be added to Glover Road

south from 216 Street to accommo-

date right-turning vehicles.

The junction of 216 Street and

Glover Road lies north of the main

intersection of 216 Street/Crush

Crescent/Glover Road, which is con-

trolled by a traffic signal.

That intersection is not affected by

the change.

Paul Cordeiro, the Township’s man-

ager of transportation engineering,

said that the change was prompted

by concerns from Transport Canada

over vehicles backing up over the

railway line that run parallel to Glover

Road.

Transport Canada relayed those

concerns to both the Township and

the Ministry of Transportation, he

said.

There is very little distance between

the tracks and the road.

According to Transport Canada,

with the volume of traffic on Glover

Road, there is little opportunity for a

vehicle to get off the track when a

train approaches.

Cordeiro stressed that left turn

movements from Glover Road to 216

Street are not affected.

No more left turns

onto Glover at 216Traffic pattern change, which was brought on

by safety concerns, comes into effect today

FRANK BUCHOLTZTimes Reporter

Many people and organiza-

tions in Langley care about the

environment, and are doing

something to preserve it. That

message came through loud and

clear in the raft of nominations

for the 2012 Langley Environ-

mental Hero awards.

The winners were announced

Saturday at Fort Langley National

Historic Park, where they partici-

pated in the planting of a tree to

help replenish the Fort’s historic

orchard.

Individual winner was Natal

Cicuto, who is a volunteer with

Yorkson Water Stewardship Com-

mittee. He has worked closely

with the developers and contrac-

tors of a massive development

on 80 Avenue in Willoughby to

preserve the quality of Yorkson

Creek. Gemco, B and B Con-

tracting and McElhanney were

named runner-up in the busi-

ness and organization category,

for their sensitive work on the

development.

Individual runner-up was Mike

Pearson, who has championed

protection of two endangered

fish species, the Nooksack Dace

and Salish Sucker, both of which

live in Langley streams.

Business and organizational

winner was Heather Jenkins of 1

Fish, 2 Fish in Langley City, who

has championed wild fish stocks

and also supports Nicomekl

Enhancement Society.

Bob Puls, who has been

involved in numerous Langley

conservation efforts and is presi-

dent of Langley Field Naturalists,

was given a lifetime achievement

award. He has been actively pro-

moting environmental causes in

Langley for more than 30 years.

Youth winner was Deven

Azevedo, who began a compost-

ing program at Langley Fine

Arts School. Honourable men-

tion went to Maddie Millsip of

Nicomekl Enhancement Society.

See www.langleytimes.com for more details.

Energy outlook changing,Hydro report shows

In February, this column

asked the question: “Are

B.C.’s greenhouse gas reduc-

tion targets history?”

The answer is contained in a

new draft plan from BC Hydro

on how to meet future power

demand. And while it’s not

explicitly stated, the answer is

yes.

The draft plan was released

in May for discussion pur-

poses, but so far there hasn’t

been much discussion. This

is surprising, given some of

the recommendations, such

as firing up the Burrard Ther-

mal natural gas power plant

more often and buying fossil

fuel power from the North

American market to keep up

to demand.

The plan confirms a few

things that have been evident

for a while. Dreams of export-

ing B.C. hydroelectric power

are gone for the foreseeable

future. And with mining ramp-

ing up along with natural gas

development and population

growth, BC Hydro now proj-

ects electricity demand could

rise by 50 per cent over the

next 20 years.

The emergence of huge shale

gas sources in B.C. and across

the United States has changed

the North American energy

picture dramatically, as U.S. elec-

tricity producers replace coal

by burning cheaper and cleaner

gas to ramp up power produc-

tion.

B.C. is losing gas market share

in the U.S., its only export cus-

tomer for heating fuel and elec-

tricity use.

Former premier Gordon

Campbell’s climate goals offi-

cially remain in place: 33 per

cent greenhouse gas reduction

by 2020 and a whopping 80

per cent by 2050. If the gas

boom proceeds as planned, B.C.

domestic emissions will not be

down, but up considerably by

2020.

Premier Christy Clark has a

new target for 2020: three lique-

fied natural gas production lines

feeding high-pressure tankers at

Kitimat, for export to Asia. Not

only will B.C. need to buy gas-

fired power from outside the

province to keep up to indus-

trial and residential demand,

but the natural gas industry

will need its own new gas-fired

electricity to produce LNG for

export.

Natural gas passed forestry

as B.C.’s top resource revenue

source many years ago. In 2005,

the volatile gas price spiked

up and produced $1 billion in

windfall profits that allowed the

B.C. government to buy a rare

period of public sector labour

peace through the 2010 Olym-

pics.

Now a glut of shale gas has

pushed the North American

price down from its historic

range of $4 to $6 per thousand

cubic feet to about $2.40.

Despite that low price, gas

producers in B.C. are going flat

out to develop the Horn River

and Montney shale gas deposits

in northeast B.C.

I asked David Pryce, vice-

president of the Canadian Asso-

ciation of Petroleum Producers,

why so much gas is being devel-

oped now. He said producers

have made huge investments in

B.C. shale gas drilling rights, and

are in an international race to

supply LNG to Asian countries

where the price is currently

four times higher than in North

America.

Whatever the domestic price,

B.C. gas producers have to

show LNG investors such as

Mitsubishi and Korea Gas that

they can fill a steady procession

of LNG tankers at a competitive

rate.

If LNG doesn’t fly here, B.C.’s

gas export market soon evapo-

rates. Currently gas producers

pay about $400 million a year in

royalties, and that much again to

buy up shale gas drilling rights.

The industry already employs

about 12,000 workers in B.C.

The B.C. government has little

choice but to redefine its cli-

mate targets. Instead of cutting

domestic emissions, it will try

to take credit for displacing coal

power in Asia.

Fortunately, B.C.’s main coal

exports are for high-grade coal

used in steel-making.

Hefty fine for serving minorsNew B.C. liquor regulations

include a $575 fine for adults

who buy alcohol for under-aged

drinkers, or serve them in restau-

rants and pubs.

The fines apply to serving

staff who fail to check identifi-

cation, in addition to penalties

already in place for licensed

establishments that serve

under-aged drinkers. Those

penalties range from fines of

$7,500 to $10,000 or a licence

suspension of 10 to 15 days.

Parents and guardians who pro-

vide alcohol to their under-19 chil-

dren are exempt from the tickets.

“These changes give police

and liquor inspectors another

tool to make it harder for minors

to get alcohol,” said Rich Cole-

man, minister responsible for

liquor and gambling policy.

The new tickets are part of an

effort by the B.C. government

to streamline the court system,

after imposing new administra-

tive penalties for impaired driv-

ing. For supplying alcohol to

minors, police previously handed

out court appearance notices.

The new tickets can still be

disputed in court, but the onus

is on the person ticketed to dis-

pute or pay it.

B.C. Restaurant and Foodser-

vices Association president Ian

Tostenson said the organization

supports the new penalties.

NEWS& viewsviewsGeneral Manager’s Message

Another fantastic fi scal year at Otter Co-op has come and gone, and with it the Annual General Meeting. At our meeting, members heard of the fi nancial results for the 2011 fi scal year ending March 3rd that included the following:

Strong community support from our members in the communities in which we serve, grew this organization to sales of a fantastic $154,916,678, this is an increase of 21.5% over the previous year. Bottom line savings grew to $8,189,619; or 5.3% of sales, which is also a signifi cant increase over the previous years’ 3.7% of sales. Over $5.3 million of the savings to be allocated back to you, our retail members. Some division results include our food sales in the Retail Centre remaining fl at throughout 2011. Our Pharmacy division experienced a nice increase in sales of 7.9% over the previous year. General Merchandise, which includes our hardware and family fashions, realized a decrease of 6.3% in sales due to the economy, poor weather, and cross border shopping. In Feed, we ended the year with an increase of 21.4%, and bulk petroleum sales increased an incredible 65.1%. Our Pitt Meadows location had a 7.5% increase in sales over the previous year; and our gas bar division continued to play a signifi cant role in our sales growth with an increase of 15.1% over 2010. A couple of highlights of the past year over and above the fantastic results achieved throughout our organization, include the opening of a new Produce Market and Convenience Store in Abbotsford, that is projected to have sales this coming year of $1.5 million. Otter Co-op also opened a stand-alone pharmacy in Abbotsford last fall that is projected to add additional sales of a half a million dollars this coming year. These two locations created new job opportunities for approximately a dozen people.

We continued with our plan to re-develop and rebuild our 248th gas bar and cardlock location, and hope to have that project underway by the end of this year. Development plans are underway for a new gas bar and convenience store on Highway 11, between Abbotsford and Mission. And most recently, Otter has purchased 5.36 acres of industrial land in Chilliwack, for the construction of a 6 pump, 6 lane gas bar and convenience store; an 8 pump, 7 lane cardlock facility; a bulk plant with 20 – 148,000 litre storage tanks, an oil warehouse and offi ce building, including space for a tenant. This project is expected to create additional sales for Otter Co-op in excess of $30 million per year.

In order to effectively compete in today’s rapidly changing marketplace, we must continue to plan for the future. Every year the requirements and expectations of our membership increases. We need to determine what is essential and then set priorities for the prosperity of Otter Co-op. The reality is about continuing on a track record of fi scal responsibility balanced with sound marketing objectives, to ensure that we have continuous development and growth of our employees and the Co-op. Our organization is rooted in history, is relevant and revered today, and ready for tomorrow. So there you have it in a quick overview; where we’ve been last year, and some of the exciting plans for the future. Here’s looking forward to another record year at Otter Co-op!

Frank Hauzer President

President’s Message:As we begin a new year in 2012, Otter Co-op is proud to be celebrating 90 years of success in the Lower Mainland. And what a great year to be celebrating this milestone, as the United Nations has proclaimed 2012 to be the International Year of Co-operatives. Our members can be proud of the rich history of Otter Co-opOur continued success is indeed a co-operative team celebration. It can be credited to you, our loyal members purchasing goods and services; both past and present. As well, the success is part of a great effort on our staff’s part, in providing that great, friendly service that members have

come to expect and enjoy. And also credit to the management and board of past and present, in setting goals and directions for the Co-ops’ success for years to come. A couple of highlights that I am especially proud of when talking about Otter, is the fact that all profi ts generated by the Co-op stay right here in our communities, as opposed to going off to some head offi ce in Toronto or outside the country. Whether it be profi ts allocated to members in equity and cash back, or to the new and upgraded facilities we are able to invest in throughout the Lower Mainland, or to the literally hundreds of groups and organizations that Otter provides scholarships, support, and sponsorship of. Did you know that for many years Otter Co-op has donated well in excess of $130,000 a year to the many different community groups that we serve? This is so exciting to be a part of such a successful and community oriented company. Other positives for me include the fact that Otter Co-op is such a diverse company, with business opportunities in feed, food, hardware, petroleum, pharmacy, and car washes. We also have a leased facility with Tim Hortons. It is this diversifi cation that positions us well for the future, and helps in “not keeping all our eggs in one basket” in this challenging economic time. There is no doubt that Otter Co-op has a bright future, and I am honored to be your president during this anniversary year. Yours Co-operatively on behalf of the Board of Directors,

Frank Hauzer OTTER CO-OP PRESIDENT

lots of fun!

On behalf of everyone at Otter Co-op we would like to thank Gerrie Wise (7 years service) and Patrick Freeman (1 year service) as they complete their terms on the Otter Co-op Board. Both very dedicated members of the Otter Co-op Board each bringing their own qualities to compliment the board.Gerrie completed all the FCL Courses offered and achieved the Level Two Directors Certifi cate. During her seven years Gerrie served as Member Relations Chair, on the Finance Committee and as the Board Secretary. Gerrie has also commuted from Mayne Island where she and her husband moved upon retiring four years ago. Even though Patrick was only with the Otter Board for one year he came with a strong background in FCL training as he had completed all levels of FCL board management programs, was a past President of Pitt Meadows Consumers Co-op as well as

the District 4 Regional Director for FCL. Thank you both for all your commitment to Otter Co-op and we wish you all the best!

With Sincere Thanks!

The 2012 Relay for life was an experience I won’t soon forget. My daughter Hailey & I participated in this event for the fi rst time and can speak for the both of us when I say this event has changed the way we look at this horrible disease. Neither of us really knew what to expect but were up for the challenge to stay up all night and raise money for such a good cause. Our team ( The Otter Trotters) consisted of Maureen Minot (Team Captain), Marilyn Gryseels, Beppie Henry, Terry Koffman, Tim Gagner, Merna Richter and her other half Gord, my daughter Hailey and myself. To date we have raised $4,170.00 and would like to send a BIG thank you to the Otter Co-op for their generous donation to our team $2500.00 which got our fundraising efforts in motion.Our gracious Emcee for the evening was Bev Dornan who did an outstanding job informing us of the evening’s events. The opening ceremony was inspiring as the survivors gathered around the stage and preceded onto the track for the survivors lap. The Fire guard escorted the survivors around the oval as the yellow T Shirts followed in suit. As they rounded our tent we clapped and cheered them on

as if they were celebrities and in my mind they all were. I fought back the tears as I thought of how many will not win their battles and won’t be joining us for the future relays. At 10pm the Bagpiper (also a survivor) led the way playing “Amazing Grace” as the rest of us joined in on the lap to celebrate the survivors and refl ect on our fallen loved ones. I remember counting my blessings the entire length of that lap and for the rest of that evening. The lighting of the luminaries on the track and in the grand stand was an awesome sight. The overhead lights were turned off for a few minutes so we could all clearly see the words “HOPE” and “CURE” spelled out. Walking the track with my teammates on and off all night didn’t seem like such a hard job when I thought about the people battling for their lives every day. As the night went on a few of us grabbed a quick cat nap, caught a second wind and continued on to our night’s journey. The weather held out and provided a dry event which I was also very thankful for. I heard past stories from our seasoned teammates about cold, rainy past relays and was glad to have my fi rst experience a dry

one.It has been a long time since I watched the sun come up and welcomed it’s warmth into my cold, stiff bones. The sound of the birds singing at 4am was a wonderful way to start the dawn of a new day which I started by praying a cure for Cancer would come sooner than later so my family and friends would be able to enjoy these sights & sounds until their true time to leave this earth arrives.Kelly Reid

OTTER TROTTER RELAY FOR LIFE TEAM

This annual event saw about 130 ladies enjoy an evening of fun and fashion.The evening included a fashion show featuring ladies, men’s and kids fashions on models that were staff and their families, as well as customers. The models were aided by the trusty help of the Langley Township Fire Department.The ladies enjoyed appetizers, desserts, beverages, many door prizes, and a 50/50 draw put on the Langley Township Fire Department to raise funds for their charity.

The customers that bought a ticket to the event also enjoyed a grab bag full of goodies and a 20% discount on fashions and hardware. It was shop till you drop.The funds raised by the entry ticket sales were split between the Relay for Life team of the Otter Trotters and the Otter Community fund that helps out needy families.For those of you that did not get a chance to attend this fun event, keep an eye open for the Fall/Winter Ladies night that will happen in early November.

DDDDDDDeDDDDD

Coming soon to the Grocery Department!


It’s amazing to think that just a year ago I

was sitting amongst the crowd of the annual

meeting, anxiously waiting to be welcomed

onto the board, unknowing of just how much

I would learn. The knowledge that now fi lls

my head is immense. Whether it is about

Co-operative values, formal business structure,

spreadsheets of numbers in which I am still a

little uneasy, or simply good business practice,

the amount of knowledge cannot be defi ned

by the single year that it was crammed into my

head.

The way in which I was welcomed to the

board with open arms is very symbolic of the

experience the Co-op has provided me. The

board was accommodating without treating me

as a child and resulted in an environment that

opened up my eyes to knowledge that will last

a lifetime. I remember my fi rst meeting when

we were looking over fi nancial spreadsheets,

playing “where’s Waldo” with each number

being mentioned. This environment forced me

to learn quickly and eventually the numbers

began making sense. The formalities of the

meetings were completely alien to me, but the

effi ciency of such a democratic system is clearly

evident and will provide a clear understanding

as I step out of school into the real world.

After seeing the core values of the Co-op, I have

realized what an honour this has truly been. The

Co-op’s success is wholly attributed to its care

for customers. In a world of major corporations,

it is tough to compete. On my fi rst ever

business trip to the fall conference I learned

of the collective network of co-operatives that

exist and work together to survive. It was a

large scale version of any co-operative, everyone

worked together for the best interest of this

community of Co-ops, just as the member’s

of Otter are in the best interest of their

community.

It is what sets Otter Co-op apart that will keep

it strong, loyalty to the community and the

resulting community loyalty. Now on its 90th

anniversary, the Otter Co-op is in a time of

opportunity and expansion and a very exciting

time to be on the board and a member. I

cannot wait to see what the Co-op will have

grown to in 5, 10, 20 years. I have no idea what

it will have grown to, though I know it will be

thriving larger than it has ever been.

The Co-op has provides many opportunities

to young people, whether it be in the

abundance of scholarships given each year,

or the invaluably experience which I have

been granted. I cannot put into words how

worthwhile it has been. I cannot imagine there

being anything comparable to this experience

and all that it has provided me. Many doors

have been opened for me and I now know a

little more about what lies beyond each one.

It saddens me that there are no more that will

be able to receive this opportunity, although I

understand that it is in the best interest of the

board that it is done away with.

I am now more excited than ever to venture

further into life, having developed an interest

in business that will inevitably bring me back to

this unique world and the excitement it holds.

I must thank the Directors and the Co-op as

a whole for everything they have provided so

graciously. Who knows? Maybe one day I’ll be

back on the board.

After Lewis Bennett got in the only

fight of his life on the soccer field of

North Otter Elementary, his principal

warned that if he continued his violent

ways, he would end up in an Asian gang.

The shocking comment was made to

him nearly two decades ago, but it was

only recently that the filmmaker decided to

explore the idea that he might — perhaps

— belong to an Asian gang and just not

know it.

Bennett along with fellow writer/

filmmaker Callum MacLeod returned

to Langley from their current home of

Vancouver to make a short documentary

exploring the topic of gang life in Langley

in the 1990s.

The film features different elements of

what makes Langley unique, from the Fort

Langley Historic National site and Greater

Vancouver Zoo (where even the painted

animals look depressed) to the Langley

Ukulele Ensemble.

It also spends time in Bennett’s family

home in Langley where he shares a

hilarious conversation with his mother,

including asking her if she ever paid for

Chinese food with sex.

“My poor mother, she’s had to endure

a lot of sh** from my brother and I,” said

Bennett.

To make the film work Bennett insisted

on bringing in the

Grade 7 student he

fought all those years

ago.

“I tried to find him

on Facebook and

messaged him but

didn’t hear,” he said.

The men

reconnected through

a friend of a friend

and Bennett’s one-time

nemisis agreed to be

part of the film, so the

two met at their former

elementary school.

The 10 minute short

ends up being a laugh-

out-loud, nostalgic piece of art.

Bennett, for no better reason other than

to keep his skills sharp and to test himself

(and likely his sanity), has committed to

creating 12 short films — one for each

month of 2012.

“Well I can’t quit now and look like an

idiot,” said the D.W. Poppy Secondary grad.

But for every “smarmy” moment of

hilarity, he adds a serious element to each

film.

In this documentary, he talks to a police

officer who specialized in gangs in the

1990s as well as a young outreach worker

who is a former gang

member.

“I’m always trying to

tell real stories with a

goofy element,” he said.

Among the films he’s

made so far is one that

finds silliness in the feet

that have been washing

up on the shores of

Vancouver.

That piece took a

surprisingly dark turn

into the alleyways of

the Downtown Eastside

and a look at all the

missing women.

Shot in HD on a

Cannon 5D DSL and edited using Final

Cut Pro, the films have an impressive

professional quality.

Filmmaking is Bennett’s passion. But so

far, it doesn’t pay the bills.

“Our girlfriends are covering our budget,”

laughs Bennett.

He said he did a bit of landscaping

last week and tries to do some Internet

marketing work to pay some bills.

With a gift for comedic timing and

creating films that truly grab the viewer

from start to stop, Bennett would love to

be able to be a filmmaker full-time.

“I’d love to work on longer projects,

mixing documentary with made up stuff is

kind of my thing,” he said.

“I like writing and directing.’

MacLeod said he makes films to make

people laugh.

“Anytime I get paid for making people

laugh, then you are winning,” said MacLeod,

who is a correspondent for CFL.ca.

The two said their film Asian Gangs was

a “true collaboration.”

Bennett’s latest film introduces a Port

Kells deli shop owner dubbed by his

customers as the “sandwich Nazi.”

The Lebanese-born sandwich maker

requires that all his customers say please,

often decides what is going on sandwiches

and a ringing cellphone gets you kicked

out of his shop.

This short comes with a big warning,

said Bennett.

“Sal (the sandwich maker) is really, really

lewd and there is nudity.

“He is a very interesting guy though,” he

said.

“Our three days spent with him will not

soon be forgotten.”

A year in shorts

Langley filmmaker Lewis Bennett has challenged himself with making a short film every month this year. His first film, titled Asian Gang, revisits an incident that took place when he was a Grade 7 student at North Otter Elementary. At left, the filmmaker broaches a delicate subject with his mother. So far in 2012, he has also visited a parrot refuge, looked into the mystery of the feet that have washed up on the West Coast and paid a visit to Port Kells’ so-called “Sandwich Nazi.”submitted image

“I’m always trying to tell real stories

with a goofy element.”

BRENDA ANDERSONTimes Reporter

Langley’s ‘Dean of Art’ has died.

Well-known local artist Al Colton

passed away in his sleep on Thursday,

June 7 at Langley Memorial Hospital.

The 90-year-old painter, whose

images have hung everywhere from

the Langley Centennial Museum to

the National Gallery in Ottawa, found

much of his inspiration in the his-

tory and natural beauty of the region,

often painting local heritage build-

ings and landscapes in his distinctly

colourful impressionist style.

And if one wanted to know how

the artist felt about a particular sub-

ject, they need only flip through one

of his many sketchbooks, where Col-

ton imbued his artwork with social

commentary — often, but not always,

using humour to make his point.

Colton was a prolific painter, and

since 1998 many of his pieces have

hung in the Birthplace of B.C. Gal-

lery in Fort Langley, while literally

hundreds of others have filled the

Langley City home he shared with his

wife and fellow artist, Esther.

Colton was introduced to gallery

owners Brenda and Kurt Alberts by

Langley historian Warren Sommer,

who was collaborating with Kurt on

a book to commemorate the Town-

ship’s 125th anniversary. Several of

Colton’s paintings are featured prom-

inently in the softcover book.

During the time that Langley 125 – A Celebration was being compiled,

many of Colton’s paintings were

stored in Kurt’s office.

“His work was so impressionistic,

it took me time to get used to it,”

said Kurt.

But looking at them every day, the

style grew on him. “I ended up fall-

ing in love with his paintings. You

can always see something new (in

them).”

Born in Toronto in 1921, Colton

began his career as an artist with his

studies at the Ontario College of Art

in the mid 1930s.

When the war broke out, shortly

after his 18th birthday, he joined the

air force and spent three years as a

flight instructor on the B.C. coast.

Working with charcoal on news-

print, he sketched portraits of other

servicemen for $5 apiece.

It was during this time at Boundary

Bay that Colton met Esther. She and a

girlfriend came by for an art lesson,

and within a week, he had proposed.

They were married for 67 years and

had two children.

“One thing that came through with

Al was his love for Esther,” said Kurt.

“They were real love birds.”

After the war, Colton taught art

at both the elementary and second-

ary school levels before taking a job

as the art co-ordinator for the city

of Vancouver and then finishing up

his working life as a postal clerk in

Langley.

Sixty years later, Colton’s former

students still drop by the Fort Langley

gallery occasionally to share memo-

ries of their teacher, said Kurt, with

one woman even bringing a small

drawing the instructor had made to

demonstrate use of perspective.

“He obviously had quite an impact

on his students,” said Kurt.

Colton had been in extended care

at LMH for almost a year when he

passed away. Even in the last months,

he stayed busy drawing in his sketch

book.

“Painting kept him going. I think

he lived longer because of that,” said

Kurt.

“He truly lived his whole life to

paint,” agreed Brenda Alberts.

“His whole life represented a pas-

sion for art.”

Colton passed that passion on to

her and to the other artists who

knew him, she said.

“He had such a great sense of

humour, he was very witty. He taught

me a lot about what I do.”

“There’s not one more thing that I

think he needed to do,” said Brenda.

“He made use of every moment.”

Langley’s Tyler Seib will be at the helm

when the next production from Surrey

Little Theatre hits the stage in the fall.

Catch Me If You Can will run Oct. 25

to Nov. 17 at the little playhouse on 182

Street. But between now and then there

will be plenty to do — not least, casting the

production.

Auditions for the mystery/comedy will

be held on Monday, June 18 and Tuesday,

June 19 at 7 p.m. at Surrey Little Theatre,

7027 184 St.

No appointment is necessary, just come

on out on either one of the two nights

and read from script selections that will

be available in the lobby. Five men ages 35

to 65 and two women ages 25 to 50 will

be cast with rehearsals beginning early

September.

As well as directing the fall production,

Seib, who is currently serving as president

of SLT, will also offer technical instruction

at the upcoming Youth Summer Day Camp

for aspiring theatre folk, aged 12 to 18.

The camp will run June 16 to 20, from 10

a.m. to 5 p.m. each day. Classes will rotate

throughout the five days, with three instruc-

tors facilitating the week, one in each of the

three categories, drama, backstage/design

and technical theatre.

Guest Instructors specializing in acting

techniques and make-up application will

also be brought in to round out the week’s

lessons. It will all lead up to a final produc-

tion, presented for parents and the com-

munity. Lunches are included in the $125

registration.

GARY AHUJATimes Sports

On the phone with the

owners of her horse, Hawley

Bennett-Awad broke into tears.

She was on the phone with

Terry and Linda Paine, shortly

after being nominated for the

Canadian eventing team for this

summer’s Olympic Games in

London.

Bennett-Awad has been

chosen to ride

for Canada

aboard her

horse Gin &

Juice.

“I just started

crying. There

have been so

many ups and

downs along

the way,” said

Bennett-Awad,

on the phone with The Times

on Monday. She was on her

way back to California after

competing at the Bromont

CCI*** eventing show at the

Bromont Olympic Equestrian

Park in Quebec.

Bennett-Awad placed fourth.

The competition also served

as the selection trials for the

Canadian eventing team.

Eventing is an equestrian

sport which comprises

dressage, cross-country and

show jumping.

“This has always been the

goal and to finally be told that

yes, you are going, it is a big

relief,” she said.

Bennett-Awad, a 35-year-old

from Langley, will be making

her second appearance at

the Olympics, having also

represented Canada in Athens

in 2004.

She helped Canada finish

12th in the team competition

but did not place in the

individual event.

“That was my first time, so I

was super excited to go,” she

said.

“The excitement of not being

my first time is gone. I have a

really good horse and am more

experienced.

“I want a top 10 finish (but)

it would be amazing to get up

on the podium.”

While Bennett-Awad was

chasing her dream this

weekend in Quebec, she did

so with mixed

feelings.

“For me, it

was a very

emotional

weekend

because I

had to miss

my brother’s

wedding,” she

said about the

nuptials of her

older brother, Mike Bennett and

his fiancee Jessica.

“It was really hard because I

am so close to him.

“He is my best friend and has

been my father figure for the

last 16 or 17 years, so it was

really tough to not be there and

be a part of that.”

With that weighing on her

mind, she said the weekend

was one of the toughest

competitions she had endured

mentally.

While the weekend may have

been tough, Bennett-Awad is

glad it is over and the team has

been nominated.

The official team, featuring

five riders plus an alternate,

will be named on July 5.

“Now the pressure is off and

you can relax and focus on your

training,” she said.

“You know that you are going

and can work on your own

Bennett-Awad will continue

working — she operates

Hawley Bennett Eventing out

of KingsWay Farms in southern

California — for the rest of

the month and then leave for

training camp in Virginia on

July 1.

The Canadian team departs

for London on July 9.

The Olympic Games run

from July 27 to August 12.

Disappointed when she didn’t

qualify for the 2008 Games

in Beijing, Bennett-Awad is

thrilled for another crack at the

Olympics.

The track will be hilly and

long for the cross-country,

“You need a horse that will

be fast and quick and that is

exactly what she (Gin & Juice)

is.”

Bennett-Awad is no stranger

to international success, helping

Canada win silver at the World

Equestrian Games in 2010 and

the another silver medal at the

Pan American Games in 2011.

The silver at the World

Equestrian Games was Canada’s

first medal at a major world

equestrian championship since

1978 and qualified Canada for

the 2012 Olympics.

She thanked her husband,

Gamal Awad, her mom, Gerry

Bennett, and the rest of her

family and friends.

“They are the people who

have been through the good

and the bad,” she said.

“I know who they are.

“You don’t get to this spot

without good a good support

team of owners, grooms,

sponsors.

“I am very, very lucky I have

a good group of people around

me and am thankful for that.”

GARY AHUJATimes Sports

While the team is off

to its best start ever, that

did not stop the Langley

Junior Thunder lacrosse

squad from making a

coaching change.

Prior to their 9-5

victory over the New

Westminster Junior

Salmonbellies on June

7 at the Langley Events

Centre, head coach Dave

Wilfong was replaced by

Jake Elliott.

“It was apparent

that the coaching staff

and our management

was not on the same

page in terms of player

personnel,” said Thunder

president and governor

Joe Willmott.

“There was nothing

wrong with what

they were doing as a

coaching staff. It was

philosophy and friction

and the general manager

decided it was time to

make a change.”

Wilfong was in his first

year as the Jr. Thunder

coach and the team was

off to a 5-5 start in the

B.C. Junior A Lacrosse

League. The team has

started the season 0-4

before bouncing back to

win seven — including

Thursday’s game and

a 13-10 victory on

Saturday over Nanaimo

— of their next eight

games.

Two of his Wilfong’s

assistant coaches,

Rob Dalzell and Troy

Margetson, also stepped

down.

Dan Lewis remained

on as an assistant and

will be joined by Peter

Tellis.

Elliott has seven years

coaching experience

at the junior and

intermediate levels in

western Canada.

He also works as the

play-by-play voice of

the National Lacrosse

League’s Minnesota

Swarm and as the team’s

director of western

scouting.

Following this past

season, he was named

the winner of the Tom

Borrelli Award as the

NLL media person of the

year.

He takes over a

Thunder squad which

returned largely the

same group as the one in

2011 which qualified for

the post-season for the

first time in six years.

The victory over the

’Bellies marked the

return of 2011 MVP

Reegan Comeault, who

just completed his

freshman season at Ohio

State. Comeault had

three goals and three

assists in the 9-5 victory.

In the 13-10 win over

Nanaimo, Brett Dobray

scored six goals.

•••••

Five straight victories

have pulled the Langley

senior A Thunder into

a share of first place in

the Western Lacrosse

Association standings.

The Thunder (5-2-0)

won three times in five

days last week, defeating

the Burnaby Lakers 13-7

on June 6, 12-8 over

the New Westminster

Salmonbellies on June

7 and then on Sunday,

13-10 over the Maple

Ridge Burrards.

The latter two games

were on the road, while

the first was at the

Langley Events Centre.

Alex Turner (three

goals, two assists) and

Lewis Ratcliff (two goals,

three assists) paced the

Thunder attack.

The Thunder host

the Coquitlam Adanacs

tomorrow (Wednesday)

at the LEC.Game time is

Langley athletes

captured seven medals

at the 2012 Lafarge

International Track

Classic.

The meet was held

June 6 at Abbotsford’s

Rotary Stadium.

Leading the

way was Robbie

Gallaugher of the

Langley Mustangs

Track and Field Club,

who won gold in the

long jump with a leap

of 7.37m.

That was one of

three medals won by

Mustangs athletes as

Eli Kastelein won gold

in the 400m hurdles

in a time of 57.53 and

Ethan Wilkinson took

bronze in the 400m in

50.43.

Jarid Vaughan

of the Coquitlam

Cheetahs won silver

in the 100m race

in 10.84 seconds

while Fiona Bensen,

who competes for

the Trinity Western

Spartans, was second

in the 1500m race in

4:31.02.

Vaughan is an R.E.

Mountain graduate,

who competed for

four years with the

University of Texas at

Arlington Mavericks

and graduated with a

degree in kinesiology

in 2010.

Valley Royals’

Spencer Prince and

Zach Choboter won

silver and bronze,

respectively, in the

hammer throw and

long jump.

Prince’s throw went

53m while Choboter

leaped 6.02m.

Prince is a

Brookswood graduate,

while Choboter, who

is from Aldergrove,

attends Abbotsford’s

St. John Brebeuf.

•••••

The North Langley

Hornets are making a

steady climb up the

podium.

The squirt division

squad of 11 and

12-year-old girls

have entered three

tournaments so far

this baseball season,

finishing fourth, third

and now second.

The most recent

result came June 1-3

in North Delta when

the Hornets placed

second.

And the team is

hoping to continue

their ascent this

coming weekend

(June 22-24) when

they enter a league

tournament at Noel

Booth Park.

They have also

placed fourth at

a tournament in

Cloverdale and third

in North Surrey.

The Hornets are

currently undefeated

in league play.

•••••

In last week’s

Langley Times, a relay

team from Walnut

Grove which captured

a medal at the

provincial track and

field championships

was omitted.

The Gators’ Jason

Kimoto, Martin Allen,

Alex Wilkinson and

Austin Dumont

captured the silver

medal in the boys’

Grade 8/9 4x400 relay

event at Burnaby’s

Swangard Stadium.

The quartet

completed the

event in 3:47.82,

two seconds behind

St. Thomas More

Collegiate.
