Discussion about safety upgrades to 16 Avenue re-surfaced at Township coun-cil on Monday night, after Coun. Charlie Fox’s motion to get road improvements “on the table” was referred to staff for more informa-tion.

Fox said the focus of his motion, which is similar to one that was defeated in 2008, is on crossing safety. He is calling for funding in the 2017 and 2018 budgets to installs traffi c signals at 208, 224, 232, 240, 256 and 272 Streets to allow for traf-fi c activated north/south crossings.

He is also asking for more enforcement opportunities through the addition of four pull-outs — two east-bound and two west-bound — and the use of green wave tech-nology, similar to what’s used on 200 Street, to syn-chronize lights for drivers travelling at the posted speeds.

It’s a very personal matter for Fox, who lives south of 16 Avenue and crosses the road on a regular basis.

“I’ve been under a lot of pressure being the one and only council member that lives down there to actual-

ly get something going on here,” Fox said, adding that it’s been two years since any work has been done on that roadway.

“The one thing that peo-ple constantly, constantly tell me — it doesn’t matter if I’m at the Otter Co-op or at Wix Brown or where I am — we need to make this a safer route going north/south. Yes, commuters go east/west, there’s no ques-tion. But we are residents of Langley, we are taxpayers of Langley.

“Commuters don’t pay any taxes, they just want to get from A to B and they do so when they go through. We need to make it safe for our residents, the ones that pay taxes in our community.”

Fox said one of the most dangerous areas is at 208 Street, where pickup trucks towing large horse trailers from Campbell Valley Park are “putting their lives (at risk)” crossing 16 Avenue at the crest of a hill.

“People going eastbound, there’s a hill coming up. And if someone is speeding up that hill, it puts them in jeopardy.

“So I really think we need to become a little more con-scious of this,” he said.

While other members of council agreed that safe-ty improvements must be made, several said they want to wait until a joint study by TransLink, the Township, the City of Sur-rey, the City of Abbotsford, and the province is re-leased this month.

“We need to have a thor-ough discussion on this tiny report that is here,” Coun. Bob Long said while holding up a draft of the TransLink report, which was provided to council for comments during closed meetings.

“There’s a lot of informa-tion that we need to put into context of what’s be-ing suggested.

“We need to have the ex-pert advice of our staff.”

Coun. Richter agreed with Fox that immediate action should be taken, calling the Township the “ham in the sandwich” in the situ-ation.

“I think councillor Fox is 100 per cent right on this,” Richter said.

“We should just be pass-

ing this now, making it very clear that from Lang-ley Township council’s per-spective, our residents are number one.

“Not Surrey, not Abbots-ford, not regional road net-works that are going to cut our community in half and really jeopardize some of our important industries in agri-tourism in South Langley.”

Both councillors Michelle Sparrow and Angie Quaale countered that comment, saying the decision to refer Fox’s motion is putting the community fi rst.

“I just want to say to councillor’s Richter’s points that were made, that it is putting our residents fi rst by asking for a report back from staff to get an under-standing of how much this is going to cost before we vote on this,” Sparrow said.

“How could we approve this right now?” Quaale added.

“Where’s this going to come from? How are we going to pay for it?”

The referral passed with councillors Fox and Richter opposed.

Township Coun. Charlie Fox believes the intersection of 208 Street and 16 Avenue is one of the most dangerous along the busy road, as vehicles travelling eastbound speed up the hill, making it diffi cult for drivers heading north/south to safely cross.

Impairment may have been a factor when a Lang-ley man rolled an all-ter-rain vehicle into a fi eld on Saturday night.

Around 10:30 p.m., emer-gency crews were called to a fi eld in the 25200 block of 80 Avenue where they found the man trapped un-derneath the ATV.

The 37-year-old was ex-tracted from beneath the ATV and an air ambulance landed in the fi eld to take him to Royal Columbian Hospital. Police say the man suffered broken bones and other non-life threat-ening injuries.

Langley RCMP said a strong odour of liquor was detected on the victim, so a blood sample was ordered.

Langley RCMP are warning own-ers of older model Honda Civics to be extra vigilant after 12 of the vehicles were stolen recently within the span of two nights.

Over the last month, Langley has seen a steep rise in the thefts of older Civics.

This is because they are an easy target, said Langley RCMP spokes-person, Cpl. Holly Largy.

Older vehicles are easier to steal because they are less likely to have the most effective security features. 

The Honda Civic remains the most popularly stolen vehicle ac-cording to ICBC, followed by the Honda Accord.

Many of the thefts have taken place in North Langley, however police advise all Honda owners to follow a few steps to help avoid becoming a victim.

• Park in a secure, well-lit area near pedestrian traffi c. 

• Always lock doors and close windows, even if you’re away from your vehicle for a very short

time.  • If possible, park your vehicle

in your garage or driveway over-night;

• use an anti-theft device, such as an electronic engine immobi-lizer, a vehicle alarm, a steering wheel lock or a car wheel boot; 

• Don’t store a spare or valet key in your vehicle;

• Wait for garage door gates to close behind you so thieves don’t have a chance to get into your parkade.

Police advise residents who see someone suspicious lurking around vehicles in their neigh-bourhood to call police.

KURT LANGMANNBlack Press

A young refugee family from war-torn Syria has found a peaceful home in Aldergrove, thanks to a small church con-gregation.

The 50-member Aldergrove Vineyard Church sponsored the Syrian couple and their three small children under the feder-al resettlement program, with the assistance of the Menno-nite Central Committee in Ab-botsford.

About 20 church members greeted the family at Vancou-ver Airport two Fridays ago. The family, which had been living in Lebanon for the past four years, includes three boys aged four, six and eight.

“It was a very joyful event and the family is so happy to be here,” says Danise Randall Breederland, whose family is temporarily sharing their rural Aldergrove house with the ref-ugee family while the fi nishing touches are put on a basement suite in Abbotsford.

“The family had applied to the UN two years ago and fi nally were accepted by Canada,” said Breederland.

“They don’t speak any En-glish but we had an interpret-er on hand to introduce us as they came through the gate. All they had was two bags between

them, nothing else.”The family was among a

group of about 30 refugees who fl ew directly from Amman, Jor-dan to Montreal, where their documents were processed be-fore transferring to a Vancou-ver-bound fl ight. Most of the group were government-spon-sored, which meant they had no private sponsors to greet them at the airport, and were transported to temporary lodg-ings such as the Sandman in Surrey.

Breederland said she was touched by the actions of a passerby couple who noted the family’s dress and asked the church members if the family were refugees.

“When we said yes, they called out ‘Welcome to Cana-da’ and pressed a hundred dol-lars into our hands and told us to buy them something nice. That’s the heart of Canadians.”

Church pastors Joe and Char-maine Kelder believe that the commitment by the church to support and guide the family through their resettlement in Canada is a calling which must be heeded.

Under the “blended visa offi ce refugees” program, the feder-al government provides $1,400 a month for six months for a family of fi ve, and the sponsors provide the rest.

The sponsors provide housing, food, clothing and assistance in setting up bank accounts and medical coverage — altogether a $30,000 commitment from the small Aldergrove congregation.

“It’s what we’re called to do,” said Kelder. “From a faith-based perspective, God makes the re-sources available.”

The family has been settling in and have been helped to con-nect with resources such as Ab-botsford Community Services, schools for the children, as well as ESL classes and job place-ment.

Breederland also took the family to the Middle Eastern Friendship Centre in Surrey on Thursday, just to have some social connections with others who speak Arabic.

“It’s a nice resource, with books, food, potluck dinners, and then after that we went grocery shopping and had din-ner with the family,” said Breed-erland.

“I use a Google translation app to converse with them but I’m not sure it is always right; I wonder perhaps if perhaps they speak an Arabic dialect?”

“It’s a huge learning curve for us, quite an adventure,” said Kelder.

“We’re delighted and stretched, but it’s a huge privi-lege for us to do this.”

On Feb. 19, Surrey resident Jeffery Frank Kooistra, 50, called home to say he would be there in 30 minutes. He hasn’t been heard

from since.RCMP are hoping the

public can help locate him.

Kooistra was last seen leaving his place of work in north Lang-ley on Feb. 19.

He is thought to have taken a bus to Fras-er Highway and 152 Street.  He called home at around 4 p.m., and was expected to arrive a half hour later. 

He did not return home and it is out of character for him not to make contact, said police.

Kooistra is described as Caucasian, 50 years old, 5’10” tall, with a medium build, short, light brown hair and blue eyes.  He was last seen wearing blue jeans, a black hood-ie and black running shoes.

If you have informa-tion that might assist police, call Langley RCMP at 604-532-3200.

Richard Bulpitt Elementary is forecasted to more than double in student population over the next 10 years, making catchment changes necessary in elementary schools on the Willoughby slope.

MIRANDA GATHERCOLE Langley Times

Catchment changes planned for Willoughby elementary schools

MIRANDA GATHERCOLETimes Reporter

Changes are coming to Wil-loughby elementary school catchments in the next two years, as the Langley School District attempts to alleviate enrolment pressures.

In a report presented to the board of education on Feb. 23, staff are projecting “fairly stable enrolments” in all but one Wil-loughby slope school: Richard Bulpitt.

A rapid increase in students from 456 this year to (an an-ticipated) nearly 1,200 by 2026 makes catchment changes nec-essary.

Although the fi nal recom-mendation on new boundaries will not be made until June, a draft plan was discussed last Tuesday night.

If approved, the new bound-aries will take effect in Sep-tember, 2017 and will keep the current grade confi gurations of K-5, 6-8 and 9-12.

The biggest change is in the catchment area for Richard Bulpitt, which reduces dramat-ically in size to encompass 208 Street on the west, 80 Avenue on the north, 216 Street on the east and 74B Avenue on the south.

Lynn Fripps and Willoughby Elementary will accommodate the areas previously in the Rich-ard Bulpitt catchment. R.C. Gar-nett will also grow in size, and

Langley Meadows will decrease. These changes will put en-

rolment numbers for Langley Meadows, Lynn Fripps and RC Garnett in the mid 400s for the next 10 years, while removing pressure in other areas. There is also a proposal to potential-ly use the six classrooms and portable space at James Ander-son Learning Centre at 20381 66 Ave. as an annex for RC Garnett for three years.

Ultimately, the board is hop-ing for approval from the pro-vincial government to purchase additional land for a new ele-mentary school in north Wil-loughby.

Superintendent Suzanne Hoffman says creating the new boundaries has been a diffi cult and complicated process, but “the lines inevitably had to be drawn.”

Staff used a combination of projection programs, local knowledge — and even drove through the community — to come up with the new areas.

Beyond the elementary schools, there are also still ma-jor issues with Yorkson Creek Middle School and R.E. Moun-tain Secondary School.

Yorkson Creek will require three additional portables in 2017/18, but there is no space left on the school property for them. They may need to use Township land, or the school’s parking lot.

And R.E. Mountain — which already has 16 portables — will need two or three more in 2017/18. The school is currently using both gyms at the Langley Events Centre Field House every day, and could be seeking future classroom space there as well.

Trustee Megan Dykeman commented that staff should investigate other options, like modular schools, which are used in the United States and Alberta.

“The kids shouldn’t be caught in the middle of a pingpong game — it’s ridiculous,” she said.

Trustee Rod Ross asked if neighbourhood learning cen-tres, which are fl ex spaces of-ten used for after school care, could be removed to make more classroom space.

And Trustee David Tod noted that the James Anderson build-ing, which has been vacant since 2014, may not be seismi-cally safe.

The next step is for school district staff to plan consulta-tion meetings with parents and teachers at the affected schools. Preliminary feedback has shown that parents are eager for a grandfathering program that will keep students together with their siblings and friends.

Members of the public are in-vited to provide feedback to the district by emailing [email protected].

Protesters gathered at the B.C. legislature last week to call for an additional increase in provincial disability assistance payments, which are due to go up this year for the fi rst

time since 2007.The increase of $77

a month is to take ef-fect Sept. 1, for disabil-ity assistance that now pays $906 a month for a single person.

But the program is to begin deducting $52 a month for tran-

sit passes available to people who are able to use them, and that has sparked protests.

Social Development Minister Michelle Stil-well faced an angry opposition in the leg-islature after the rally, and again refused to

reverse the decision to charge for bus passes.

Stilwell said 45,000 people on disability assistance could not use a bus pass, and the change makes the rate fair for everyone.

Faith Bodnar, exec-utive director of the advocacy organization Inclusion BC, told the rally her online pe-tition opposing the change grew quickly to 100,000 people. She argued that bus pass or not, disability assis-tance rates remain too low.

“Government, all you did was equalize the poverty for peo-ple with disabilities in B.C.” Bodnar said.

Stilwell said the rate increase will cost $170 million over the next three years, and add-ing the bus pass fund-ing to that would cost another $20 million.

She and Finance Minister Mike de Jong have insisted they will not retain a system that helps some people more than others.

De Jong said the gov-ernment is aware of some people taking the free bus passes avail-able to disabled people and selling them on the street for whatever cash they can get.

Those people will have the option of taking the entire $77 a month increase in-stead.

A single employ-able person without a disability receives $610 a month in in-come assistance, and that amount is not increased in the B.C. budget presented in February.

Protesters call on province for more disability support

Protesters are joined by NDP MLAs at a rally in front of the B.C. legislature Wednesday against a charge for bus passes introduced along with an increase in disability assistance.

The dog was recently diag-nosed with canine T-cell lym-phoma and has been given about six months to live, unless he gets a stem cell transplant from one of his siblings.

Jasper was born in Langley on July 9, 2006.

Angela Szaito, with the help of her son, took to social media, hoping to fi nd one of Jasper’s 12 litter mates.

“We have been so fortunate and have located three of Jas-

per’s siblings,” said Szaito. “All three owners are so

kind-hearted and willing to pro-vide a blood sample from their dog to have the genetic testing done.  Moreover, all three have generously agreed to go forward with the stem cell donation if their dog is a genetic match.”

But the more siblings they can fi nd, the better the chance Jas-per can be saved.

The family bought Jasper from a Langley breeder by the name of Christine Filipczyk. She no longer breeds dogs. To further complicate matters, she lost her records in a fi re.

“In the end, all we want is to

help our dog live out his days doing what he enjoys — swim-ming, running and most of all just being with his family,” she said.

While stem cell transplants aren’t available in Canada, a veterinarian in Bellingham is leading the treatment, which is reported to be a painless procedure. They are also offer-ing a $5,000 reward if there is a match.

Anyone who has one of Jas-per’s siblings and can prove its lineage is asked to contact [email protected] or go to the Facebook page Stem Cell Donor for Jasper.

Great service is about going the extra mile We were discussing why we

go to the places we go every day when we have so many choices.

Why do we meet at that place for coffee, why do we take our car there for servicing, why do we shop at that store for clothes or groceries? The consensus of opinion was that it was not al-ways price or location, the deci-sion usually came down to the people who served us.

In these days of home shop-ping, fast foods, computerized cars and self-checkouts, it’s easy to take people out of the equation and let machines do it for us.

We can fi nd an item online, click it into an imaginary shopping cart, pay with plastic money and a stranger de-livers it to our door where we sign a tab-let with a magic pen and our shopping experience is complete.

We didn’t even have to leave the house and there was no human inter-action.

I was going to buy some clothes for my lady for Christmas. There are hun-dreds of stores that sell women’s cloth-ing in Langley. I chose to go to the mall, go to the store where my friend Adriana

works and walked behind her as she recommended the sizes, colors and styles, rang up the sale and I got a Christmas hug as well.

Everything fi t perfect and Christmas morning was a suc-cess.

I can go to anywhere for coffee in the morning and we change it around as per the or-der of the day. I can go to Hor-ton’s, wait in line explain what

I want and have a nice cup of coffee surrounded by friends.

Or, I can walk into Coastal Coffee, be greeted by name with a smile as my coffee is being poured and sit down while my breakfast bagel is being pre-pared and brought to my table.

Everything tastes warmer in that en-vironment. It’s the personal touch.

My friend Scott from Precision shared that he teaches the personal touch to his employees.

“If someone has made an appoint-ment, re-arranged their entire day, or-ganized someone to pick them up and bring them back, the last thing they want to hear from the mechanic is that we hooked it up to the computer and

could fi nd nothing wrong. We encour-age them to go for a drive, explain what the noise is or show us when the vehi-cle is doing something wrong. We want to listen to them.”

That’s old school when the mechanic would pop the hood and stand by the car while you explained things, took you for a drive and found the problem. That’s why you went back there.

Many years ago, I would run across the alley from the tire shop to Logan’s Drive-in and as soon as I entered the door Phyllis would yell, “Logan’s spe-cial, large fries and vanilla shake!”

In fi ve minutes I was back at work with my lunch. Why would I go any-where else? They treated customers as if they were happy to see them.

We taught our fi refi ghters that the accident they were attending at 3 p.m. may be the third one they had attended that day but it was a life-changing ex-perience for those victims, maybe the fi rst trauma they had ever had. They were to treat each patient as an individ-ual, give them expert customer service.

You will remember the smiles and the service long after you’ve forgotten the price.

At least that’s what McGregor says.

The 16 Avenue corridor through Langley has seen more than its fair share of carnage over the years.

Whether the result has been severe injuries or, in the worst cases, fatalities, many 16 Avenue crashes have come as a result of a driver trying to cross the busy and fast-moving corridor at an uncontrolled intersection.

South Langley residents who live near 16 Ave-nue — or cross the busy road on a regular basis —have been calling for improved safety measures for years.

To be fair, several have already been made.In a letter written to the Times last August, a

resident noted that a number of improvements have been added over the years, including the in-stallation of left turn lanes.

While these have smoothed east-west fl ow, he noted, they’ve also had the unintended effect of creating “an increased level of risk to motorists attempting to cross 16 Avenue north and south-bound, specifi cally at the major intersections that have no traffi c control signals.”

Plans to link Highway 1 to 16 Avenue via a King Road connector in Abbotsford will only add to the problem if measures aren’t taken to slow vehicles and create breaks in the traffi c.

The obvious answer would seem to be more traffi c lights.

And it’s a measure Township council is ponder-ing .

From a business perspective, of course it’s im-portant to keep trucks moving, and many drivers choose the 16 Avenue route because it’s relatively unencumbered by stop signs and red lights.

Whether they are timed, or vehicle-activated, the signals will slow the fl ow of traffi c along 16 Avenue, no question.

But when the trade-off is in potential lives saved, it’s not much of a contest.

Editor:  The present health care sys-tem we have in effect is failing us big time. 

There is no sense of urgency in the system.  The system is run on a fi rst-come, fi rst-served basis. 

The doctor fi lls out  the   form for a medical procedure, hands the request to a receptionist who then makes the appointment. 

We only live once with our bodies. We are not a car, boat, or a refrigerator, where waiting  until parts are found is OK, because these items can still be re-paired regardless of the time factor. 

The exact opposite is true  when it comes to our bodies, which are like a time bomb. 

Time is of the utmost importance in medical issues.

The forms doctors fi ll out should have three option boxes that the doctor must check off — “can’t wait,” “can wait,” and “exploratory.”

After operations for cancer, for exam-ple, further CAT scans, MRIs, etc. are re-quired. 

The waiting times are too long for these further tests and the results mean nothing as the cancer has advanced, but if the test was done using “can’t wait,” further procedures could have been done to stop the cancer from spreading further. 

If two people require knee replace-ment operations and one is still walking

without a cane while the other is walk-ing with two canes, the present system is allowing the person not using a cane to have their operation fi rst. 

There is no sense of urgency.  The per-son still walking without a cane should have the box checked off as “can wait,” and the person using two canes should have the box checked off as “can’t wait.”

All we hear about the present  medical system is that we need more employ-ees and longer operating hours. That is complete hogwash.

Put the above three-box check off sys-tem into action and the system and wait times would no longer be a factor. 

JOE SAWCHUK,

Editor: I have been keeping track of the senior advocate’s reports, which are an excellent exam-ple of extensive research that outlines all aspects of the care that our seniors are receiving in this province.

Then I read her news release, which gains much more attention than the actual report does.

She has highlighted the rising problem of “res-ident-on-resident aggression” in care facilities, and stated that she would be looking for “sys-temic issues” that contribute to this problem.

I am disappointed by this statement because the solution to this problem is contained within the information in her report, which she failed to mention in her news release. 

And that information is, that licensing viola-tions have increased by 21 per cent since 2014. And that the largest majority of those violations, at 44 per cent, are in the category of “care and supervision,” and 19.8 per cent in the category of “staffi ng.” And in assisted living, the largest per-centage of complaints are in the category of “res-ident abuse, neglect, and self abuse”. 

Eureka! I have discovered the obvious solution to improving the quality of care for our seniors, that oddly enough, the entire Health Ministry has failed to notice or acknowledge. And those are: An increase in staff levels, mandatory eval-uations for the “appropriate type” of employees, and more training for dealing with dementia-re-lated issues. All of these solutions to be found in a report that 90 per cent of B.C. citizens will never read.

Do you think that our tax dollars will now be saved because “looking for the systemic issues” should no longer be necessary?

JUDY GALLEY,

Editor: Gord Wietzel’s letter (The Times, Feb. 19) was right about one thing: Justin Trudeau has indeed  done it, and done it very well, backing away from somebody else’s misguided war on terror, fought under the guise of a military mission.

I for one am not the least bit ashamed.

That is why I waited on the fi rst day at the voting booth to get rid

of an archaic regime that would rather make war, not love, not unlike what is happening in Syria right now.

The fi rst casualty of war is al-ways the truth, but the truth is that Canada has never been a na-tion that others despise, and this is because we are a kind, gentle people.

Imagine being born and grow-ing up in a place where someone

in military fatigues represents death and destruction with a red white and blue fl ag on their arm, regardless of their NATO allianc-es.

We are all a product of our en-vironment, so I say don’t worry about a NATO snub. 

The only hope some of these people have are from those with red and white symbols, like the Red Cross and maple leaf “war-

riors” that deliver them. As a country with barely 37 mil-

lion residents with a baby boom-er medical crisis explosion loom-ing on the horizon, a poverty rate that is growing larger every day, and Syrian refugees to support, I think he made a move toward the future of life on this planet.

We have too many battles to fi ght right here to waste any more on precision guided  explosives.

So, yes, the fault is entirely ours, and I for one am proud to say I am a Canadian.

Especially if I ever get to travel abroad.

Thank you, Mr. Trudeau, for standing up for what Canada can be. A nation of peace and love, the other fi rst casualty of war.

The B.C. Liberal government made a big show of selectively easing Medical Services Plan fees in its budget for the com-ing election year.

In what is becoming a pattern for Premier Christy Clark, the biggest benefi ciaries are single parents.

The new MSP is calculated for adults only, so a single par-ent with two children saves as much as $1,200 a year.

Premium assistance is ex-panded, with discounts for sin-gle people making up to $42,000, rather than $30,000. But for sin-gles, couples and seniors who don’t qualify for discounts, the rate is going up another four per cent effective Jan. 1, 2017.

Indeed, with population growth, the fi nance ministry expects its take from MSP pre-miums to rise every year, reach-ing $2.5 billion in the coming years.

MSP revenue covers about 17 per cent of B.C.’s health budget, and Clark and Finance Minister Mike de Jong insist that Can-ada’s only direct health care charge is a vital signal to people that health care isn’t free.

This argument has failed.One seldom-discussed fact

is that for half of the people charged MSP, it’s paid by their employers.

In private sector terms it’s a hefty payroll tax, creating one more obstacle for businesses to hire full-time staff with bene-fi ts.

So most full-time employees don’t receive this supposed-

ly vital signal, unless they get laid off be-cause their employer is losing money.

Also note that politi-cians and public sector employees have never paid MSP premiums. Their employers, tax-payers, pick up the tab for them. 

People who have to pay out of pocket are what the bureaucracy calls “pay direct accounts.”

Jordan Bateman of the Ca-nadian Taxpayers’ Federation recently revealed that nearly 400,000 of these accounts are currently in arrears by more than 30 days, owing a grand to-tal of $457 million.

Of course this is Canada, so even if you haven’t paid or even registered for MSP, you still get treatment at the hospital. An-other potential signal lost in the noise.

For people who lose their jobs, MSP is like being kicked when they are down. Their employer stops paying, and the slow-moving bureaucracy charges them based on their income from the previous year.

There was a fuss in 2004 after the B.C. Liberals contracted out MSP administration to a Virgin-ia-based back-offi ce specialist, delightfully named Maximus Corporation.

Now Maximus goes after de-linquent MSP accounts with collection agency tactics, and attempts to keep up with the comings and goings from other

provinces and countries.Opposition parties de-

cry the continued ineq-uity of the MSP premium system, which charges the same for a single per-son making $45,000 or $450,000 a year.

NDP leader John Horgan rails about inequality and accuses Clark of using MSP revenues to estab-lish her prosperity “slush

fund,” but he stops short of call-ing for the elimination of MSP premiums.

One would expect the NDP to lead another “axe the tax” cam-paign, as they did with the car-bon tax and the HST, but they aren’t.

Perhaps this is because work-ers for this unnecessary Maxi-mus machine remain members of the B.C. Government and Ser-vice Employees’ Union.

Green Party leader Andrew Weaver has it right. He staged a popular petition drive to roll MSP premiums into income tax. If the government wants to send a message, it can interrupt its continuous “Jobs Plan” ad-vertising.

Scrapping MSP and raising in-come tax rates on higher brack-ets to compensate would fi x the private sector payroll deterrent, make salaried employees (in-cluding me) pay their share, and end a tax break for the wealthy.

Medical Services Plan premiums are being charged only for adults starting in 2017, and the qualifying income for reduced premiums is going up from $30,000 to $42,000 for single people.

The new system creates a break for single par-ents, who will pay a single adult rate of $78 a month instead of the current rate of $150 charged for a family of three. A single senior or single par-ent with one child and an income of $45,000 may also be eligible for reduced premiums.

The changes will reduce rates for an addition-al 335,000 people, and 45,000 more people will be exempted from paying as long as they are reg-

istered and qualify. But rates overall continue to rise. With a four per cent increase in personal rate this year and growing population, the gov-ernment expects to collect more MSP each year of its three-year budget plan than with the current system.

B.C. is the only province that charges premiums for health services, and the NDP opposition has called for them to be eliminated as a regressive tax. De Jong argues that MSP covers only 14 per cent of a growing health care budget, and elimi-nating it would amount to hiding the cost in the general tax system.

Q: What is a dental implant?

A: If you are missing one or more teeth, you may want to consider having them replaced with dental implants. A dental implant is an artifi cial root that is inserted into the jaw bone. A replacement tooth is then attached to the dental implant, which simulates the look and feel of your natural tooth. Multiple implants may be used to replace multiple missing teeth, and a combination of single crowns, fi xed bridges, or even removable dentures may be anchored onto these implants.

Dental implants are a comfortable and long-lasting option for healthy, suitable candidates. Speak with your dentist to determine whether dental implants are the best option for you. Your dentist may have special training in placing implants, or may refer you to a specialist for the procedure. Keep in mind that the whole process will require multiple appointments, typically spanning over a period of 4-6 months before completion. Lastly, just like your natural teeth, dental implants need to be properly cleaned and cared for – that way, they will last a lifetime in your mouth.

MIRANDA GATHERCOLETimes Reporter

The Greater Langley Chamber of Commerce is looking to expand the In-ter-Municipal Business Li-cence program to include the entire Lower Mainland, from Hope to West Vancou-ver.

The program, which fi rst launched as a pilot in the Langleys in 2012, allows mobile businesses to oper-ate in more than one mu-

nicipality under a single licence, rather than pur-chase a different licence for each municipality they do business in.

The current mobile busi-nesses licence grants cov-erage in the City of Langley, the Township of Langley, Surrey, Abbotsford, Chil-liwack, Maple Ridge, Mis-sion, Hope, Pitt Meadows, Kent/Agassiz and Delta.

An expansion would offer coverage all the way to the

North Shore. This would be in addition to the four different mobile business licence programs already operating in the Lower Mainland: Fraser Valley, Metro West, North/West Vancouver and Tri-Cities.

Across the province there are 11 similar programs, with 73 municipalities par-ticipating.

“The expansion of the program will provide an opportunity for Lower Mainland businesses to further reduce the burden and confusion of manag-ing multiple business li-cences, and encourage in-

creased compliance with the entire region,” Scott Johnston, president of the Greater Langley Chamber of Commerce, told Town-ship council Monday night.

“We, as the Greater Lang-ley Chamber of Commerce, are recommending includ-ing the full region — an additional program — to provide an opportunity for mobile businesses to se-lect a program that mostly suits their needs.”

The program lends itself best to businesses in the construction industry, al-though the Chamber’s goal is to eventually make it

accessible for all business sectors.

“At the present time, the initiative is … basically (for) construction-related or businesses that would attend a construction site. And the reason for that is that the bylaws are very similar throughout (partic-ipating cities),” said Lynn Whitehouse, executive di-rector of the Greater Lang-ley Chamber of Commerce.

“But when you start to expand to include oth-er sectors, that’s where we get into a little bit of a problem. So at this point in time, we aren’t recom-

mending adding an expan-sion to other sectors. We are looking for creation of a regional business licence under the current condi-tions.

“Our goal is defi nitely to try and work to move into other sectors, but we un-derstand that there’s a lot of differences in the mu-nicipalities with regards to their bylaws and their reg-ulations, which makes it a bit more diffi cult.”

Chamber looking to expand licence program

Robin and Mike Nierychlo left Langley a few years ago to chase their dream of owning and operating their own vineyard and winery. In 2014, the couple bought Emandare Vineyard. They will be in Vancouver next Friday, sharing their story, as well as some of their wines, at Marquis Wine Cellars.

GARY AHUJATimes Reporter

A little less than three years after chasing their dream, the rewards of their efforts are continuing to grow.

It all began in 2013 for Mike and Robin Nierychlo.

The couple —  who were born and raised in Langley and actually first met when they were two years old — had moved to Victoria the year pri-or.

The original move was for a lifestyle change but in the back of their mind, the ulti-mate goal was to purchase and run their own vineyard and winery.

The pair both have busi-ness and project management backgrounds and Mike spent years working in the wine in-dustry in a media capacity.

They created multiple busi-ness plans over the years, but

never knew if their plan would come to fruition.

“We had a doubt in the back of our minds that we would never find something that would fit,” he admitted.

But that all changed when they found a property in north Cowichan, which they pur-chased in September 2013.

“It was a perfect opportunity for us to take a giant leap of faith and dive in face-first in to what became a crazy jour-ney and adventure,” Mike said.

“We were very aware of the challenges we would face. It is an insane amount of work.”

The vineyard is named af-ter their first name initials — Emandare Vineyard.

The 8.5 acre property had long been neglected and they spent months removing weeds which were anywhere between three and eight feet tall.

The vineyard had previously served as a grower for other wineries, but the Nierychlos wanted to make their own wine as well. They thought about selling that 2014 crop to build more capital.

They ultimately decided to hang on to the crop and make their own wine. They even fin-ished construction on a 3,000

square foot winery on their property in time for the Sep-tember harvest.

“One of the most mental things we have ever done but it was so worth it,” Mike said. “We made some incredible wine in 2014 and our reputa-tion is starting to precede us.”

While this is their dream, the couple still has their day jobs.

Mike, 32, runs his own cus-tom counter top business, and hung on to some of his bigger contracts, which brings him back to Langley and the Low-er Mainland for work every month. Robin, 31, still works in health care in Victoria.

The couple will be in Van-couver next week (March 11) at Marquis Wine Cellars where they will share their story ‘We Bought A Vineyard.

It is also a free wine tasting.From 3 to 4 p.m. there will be

a media and VIP guest tasting for all Marquis customers and new guests. The wine tasting will be from 4 to 6 p.m. with wine talk and a meet and greet with the winemaker.

The event is being held at Marquis Wine Cellars (1034 Davie St.).

Township honoured for environmental efforts“Bold leadership” to

take action against climate change has earned national acco-lades for the Township of Langley.

A special recognition

ceremony was held in Ottawa recently (Feb. 10) by the Partners for Climate Protection (PCP) to acknowledge Canadian munici-palities that recently

achieved milestones in its program to enhance the environment by re-ducing the amount of harmful greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions produced.

The PCP program, a partnership between the Federation of Ca-nadian Municipalities (FCM) and ICLEI — Local Governments for Sus-tainability — outlines a milestone-based framework to guide municipalities’ efforts to reduce emissions associated with their corporate operations by encouraging initia-tives and setting goals.

Only 33 municipal-ities throughout the country have achieved the fi fth and fi nal mile-stone in the program, including the Town-ship, which was pre-sented with a trophy to recognize the ac-complishment. Town-ship Councillors Kim Richter and Petrina Ar-nason, who were par-ticipating in the FCM’s Sustainable Commu-nities Conference, ac-cepted the award on behalf of the Township.

“We are really pleased to have been a part of this important initiative and proud to be recognized for our success with the pro-gram,” said Langley Township Mayor Jack Froese.

“We all need to do our part to protect the environment and be-ing responsible envi-ronmental stewards is something the Town-ship takes seriously. Our municipality is committed to creating a great quality of life for those who live here now and for genera-tions to come, and it is important that we lead by example.”

In 2001, Township Council approved par-ticipation in the FCM’s Partners for Climate Protection program and committed to measuring and reduc-ing corporate and com-munity GHGs.

During the course of the program, the Town-ship created a baseline GHG emissions inven-tory, adopted a Corpo-rate Greenhouse Gas Emissions Reduction Plan, and put the plan to action.

Led by the Town-ship’s Strategic Ini-tiative’s department, employees through-

out the corporation worked to implement GHG-reducing mea-sures, such as install-ing a geothermal sys-tem at the Aldergrove Water Treatment Plant and earning an E3 Fleet Gold Rating for excel-lence in fl eet manage-ment and green per-formance.

As part of Milestone 5, which was complet-ed in January of this year, staff completed the requirements of the program frame-work by conducting an updated GHG emis-sions inventory, docu-menting results from notable projects, and describing how stake-holders have been in-volved throughout the milestone process.

Although the pro-gram’s milestones have now been achieved, the Township will con-tinue to fi nd and im-plement innovative ways to protect the en-vironment.

“We have wrapped up the corporate PCP framework, but the Township is still com-mitted to maintaining our momentum on energy and emission reductions,” said Josh Power, Energy Pro-grams Specialist for the Township.

“We are currently de-veloping a Strategic En-ergy Management Plan to embed improved energy practices across all departments of the municipality.”

“The Township of Langley has shown bold leadership in ad-dressing these import-ant issues,” said FCM President Raymond Louie.

“Your local govern-ment is now in a lead-ership position to help mentor and encourage other municipalities that are working to-ward better energy and GHG management.”

Louie noted that, since 2008, municipali-ties in the PCP program have reported on more than 800 projects to re-duce GHG emissions, representing more than $2.3 billion in in-vestments and over 1.8 million tonnes in an-nual GHG reductions.

and fi nal milestone of program

Pancake lovers can enjoy a free short stack of buttermilk pancakes on Tuesday, March 8 in celebration of National Pancake Day in Canada.

Guests at IHOP locations across Canada will receive a free order of pancakes be-tween 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. on March 8. Guests are asked to leave behind a voluntary do-nation to B.C. Children’s Hos-pital Foundation.

Leading up to the day, the IHOP stores have also been

selling ‘Miracle Balloons’ for $1 and $5 to raise funds.

Guests who purchase a $5 balloon before March 8 re-ceive a $5 discount coupon for a future visit.

“Every pancake given away on National Pancake Day serves a purpose and over the last three years, thanks to the generosity of our guests, we were able to help so many children in need,” said Daniel Del Olmo, the president of In-ternational DineEquity Inc.,

the parent company of IHOP.More than $60,000 has been

raised over the last two years for sick and injured children from across the province.

“We know fi rst-hand the in-credible work that takes place at the hospital every day and

our family is grateful for the care Maya has re-ceived,” said Gary Ahuja, whose daughter Maya has been a patient at B.C. Children’s Hospital since birth due to a congenital heart defect.

“Nothing can prepare you for having a sick child, but knowing that fund-raisers like National Pan-cake Day are providing

funds for the urgent needs of the hospital that saved Ma-ya’s life, demonstrates the huge network of support for families like ours.”

The Langley IHOP is located at 19700 Langley Bypass.

Celebrate National Pancake Day on March 8

IHOP locations are giving away free short stacks of buttermilk pancakes — but collecting donations — to celebrate National Pancake Day on March 8.

Tell us about your career path.  How did you get your start? I had been married for almost 10 years and had 3 young children, but knew that my marriage was sadly coming to an end.  I was a stay at home mum and I was aware that I needed not just a job, but a career.  Real Estate was a natural choice for me as I loved people, and helping them, and had many offi ce-related skills that I knew would help keep me on track with paperwork and contracts.  I was also becoming a skilled negotiator with 3 children!

How long have you been in the business?I am now in my 9th year and pride myself on ongoing and continued education in the Industry, including my recent Seniors Real Estate Specialist designation.  I am consistently in the Top 3% of the Fraser Valley and top 5% in Canada with my Company, HomeLife Benchmark Realty.

Why Langley?I am originally from England, and moved to Canada in 1993.  When I got married in 1999, we moved from Abbotsford to Langley, and I’ve been here ever since.  I have raised my children here; attended Church, volunteered, been involved in the Community, and simply love it here!  There’s no better place to be and I wouldn’t want to live or work anywhere else.

Why are you successful? My success comes from an ingrained desire to do my best and be my best.  I’m focused and very driven, and won’t allow negativity to sway me.  My clients are my #1 priority and I have their best interests at heart.  I also have 3 very hungry boys to feed!  Success to me is also defi ned in my relationships with my colleagues and having good working relationships with them always helps clients in getting the best service possible.

What advice would you give to young women entrepreneurs? Stay strong and stay the course.  I started at the bottom and worked my way to the top in just a few short years - as a single mum with 3 kids in tow!  Ignore the nay-sayers!  Focus on the goal, give it your all and don’t give up!

What is your unique selling point - something that sets you apart? Not only am I a dedicated hard worker, but I pay special attention to details and client needs.  My tagline is “With You Every Step of the Way!”.  It’s my job to lead and guide my clients, thereby relieving them of much of the stress involved in buying and selling real estate.

What is your secret to keeping customers coming in? Over 85% of my business is referral business.  I provide excellent service, going above and beyond, and consistently exceeding my client’s expectations which leads to a large referral network.  Connecting on a personal level with clients and bringing much life experience to the table enables me to relate to a wide range of people from fi rst-time Buyers, divorcing couples, new parents and seniors and of course everything in between!

Do you have a short testimonial you want to share? From a happy Realtor:  “Thank you for being so organized and for your clear communications - I really appreciate your professionalism and the fact that you had everything prepared and gave everyone time to be able to do their due diligence and present off ers in a fair manner.”

Tell us about your career path. How did you get your start? Art has always been in my life, although the opportunity to start painting did not present itself until 1975. My need to paint in a realistic manner is part of my nature. My technique depends on my ability and understanding of the medium. Events in my life, be they joyful or traumatic, infl uence my choice of subject matter and have formed my philosophy.

Why did you get into this specifi c business? To me, Art is more than painting, it’s a way of thinking, a way of life.It is fi nding meaning, and searching for the essence in existence.

The book PLACES OF HER HEART, THE ART AND LIFE OF BARBARA BOLDTby K. Jane Watt in conversation with Barbara Boldt is available at my studio.

#110-4061 200 Street, Langley | 604.534.6802 | parlourdayspa.com

Please visit us for your own personal tour today

What brought you to becoming a business owner?Susan – The Spa and Salon business was a calling for as long as I can remember. I have always loved the feeling that guests that visit my family business feel better physically, feel more relaxed and walk out the front door with a special pride in themselves that will last for a very long time.

How long have you been in business? Susan – With a small family loan, I started the fi rst incarnation of what is now The Parlour Spa.Salon.Mens Den over 23 years ago in a small space in St. Andrew’s Plaza in downtown Langley. Humble beginnings is an understatement, but amazingly enough, in that old small space we began to develop our loyal and ever-growing clientele that continues to support us today in our new luxurious cutting edge 5,000 square foot location in Brookswood Village.

What is your unique selling point (USP) that sets you apart? Susan – One word: Value. Raising two girls as a single mother on a single income, you understand very well the value of a dollar. Every dollar spent needs to mean something. I will not off er a product or service within our business that I am not confi dent provides the best value and experience for the price. We are a mother and daughter owned business, not a large corporate Spa or Hair Salon chain with pure profi t-driven motivations. I know the daily fi nancial demands that life can have, but everyone needs to be able to take care of themselves and feel good about themselves while not breaking the family budget.

What is your secret to keeping customers coming in? Jena - Our value, talent and atmosphere. We have a 3,000 square foot soothing Spa complete with steam rooms and lounge specializing in RMT, esthetics and body therapy treatments. Further, The Parlour has a 1,400 square foot industry-leading hair salon, staff ed by a team of

talented Bumble and Bumble trained hair artists. We also have a separate Men’s Den Barber Shop on-site for guys to come in for a haircut and straight-razor shave from our skilled barber. There’s really something for everyone at a price that provides a great value and experience in a relaxed atmosphere for all our guests.

What about your company makes you most proud? Susan - I am most proud of our team here at the Parlour. We are a family business and the Parlour team is an extension of our family. Our Parlour family has grown both in size and talent over the years through constant coaching, training and professional development. I am so proud every day to share in the personal and professional growth of my Parlour family team.

What advice would you give to young women entrepreneurs? Jena – The challenges of managing a young family while fulfi lling a 24/7 responsibility to a business can feel overwhelming at times, but this should not prevent you from following your passion and becoming successful. First, develop a committed routine for your family to follow that maximizes your family quality time. Block unnecessary business distractions off during this time so that you can focus on life’s moments with your family. Second, identify your support network; the family and friends that can help you with the family responsibilities if and when an urgent duty at the business calls. Don’t be afraid to ask them for help. Third, have a reasonable business plan that makes sense in both a best and worst case scenario. Take the time to have friends, family or other business contacts challenge and critique your plans. Take the feedback positively and as an opportunity to view and update the business plan through benefi tting from other individual’s experience.

Congratulations to the many women in our community that contribute to our healthy and vibrant business economy.

You are true leaders who motive all of us to be better business entrepreneurs, community supporters and mentors for all women who aspire to achieve their goals

know matter how big or small.

This is only a small sample of the numerous women who represent the diverse and thriving economy within the Langley community so please join us in saluting all women in honour of International Women’s Day which is Tuesday, March 8th.

117 - 20353 64 Avenue, Langley BC604.530.1518 | www.wellseasoned.ca

Why did you get into this specifi c business?Living in the Fraser Valley before Well Seasoned openedwas quite frustrating for foodies.I used to have to drive into Vancouver on weekendsto buy specialty food items so I could cook on theweekends. I knew I wasn’t the only person in the Valleythat wanted access to gourmet food & kitchen equipment so I decided to open Well Seasoned in 2004. It was also really important to me to provide access to locally made food. In 2004, big grocery stores were squeezing out the independent, small scale producers - leaving them with nowhere left to sell their products. I want choices in my food buying and if all of the food on the grocery store shelves is controlled by a few large companies, those choices become fewer and fewer every year. I didn’t want to see that happen!

Why Langley?As an elected Township Councillor, I might be slightly biased but...I think Langley is THE best place in BC to live. And, it truly is the HEART of food in the Fraser Valley! When you think of all the amazing food producers, wineries, breweries we have within just a few minutes of us, Well Seasoned is the perfect place to get all of the ingredients, advice and expertise you need to round out your menu or grocery list. When you think about shopping for food locally, we hope Well Seasoned is on the top of your list, part of your weekly grocery routine where you can get great, aff ordable everyday food items and super special items when you entertain or want to try something new!

What motivated you to start/continue this business? My journey in healthy living began years ago with concerns about my family’s health issues and the infl uence of diet and wellness practices. In 2008 I took a career course in which we were required to make a business plan for a future business  we were passionate about ...I chose a safe gluten free eatery since my Mom was diagnosed as a celiac in 1971.  I was painfully aware of the limited options she had for foods she could eat that tasted good.   In my quest, I spent a lot of time at Country Life Health talking to now retired Cliff McNally. One day he off ered me a job and it soon morphed into managing store. Everything about health became my passion.  When Cliff retired, he off ered the business to me and I jumped at the chance to realize my dream.  Since Cliff ’s staff ,Bonnie and Lee,  shared my passion and my dream, I asked them to join me in my new venture.

Why did you choose this specifi c business? Over the years I saw family members, friends and acquaintances aging and as they did they all seemed to gain more aches and pains. Sometimes it was due to old injuries, however, all too often the aches and pains were related to conditions associated with the aging process. I, like everyone, am aware that we all age and that that process can bring with it a set of conditions that aff ect quality of life. My thought was to bring forward something real that would improve quality of life during that process. As an L.E.D. Light Therapist, I not only believe I can make a diff erence, I know I make a diff erence.

Why Langley? Langley is the gem stone of the Fraser Valley. We live here among family and friends, and this community has it all; civic pride, community spirit, and great shopping along with amenities and care facilities. Its central location for the Valley and its freeway accessibility for those who live in the city make Langley the place to live and work.

Why are you successful?Because our service is “Old School,” should you call during offi ce hours a real person answers the phone and is there to answer queries, give directions, book appointments or connect you with one of our knowledgeable therapists. When you arrive at our state-of-the-art L.E.D. Light Therapy Clinic you are greeted by polite courteous individuals who have your health, comfort and best interest at heart. Our clinic’s spa-like environment lends to a relaxing therapeutic visit where our main goal is to listen to our clients and serve them. On top of all that the therapy we off er really works. So, you are treated with respect in a comfortable inviting environment, we listen, we serve and get results. That is why we are successful.

What is your secret to keeping clients coming back? Our clients get results. It is truly that simple. When a client comes in with, for example, hip pain due to arthritis we support the body to reduce infl ammation and the pain from the arthritis. In some cases, the pain totally disappears. Once our clients experience relief like that they trust us and keep coming back.

How do you envision your business in 10 years?The brilliant Dr. Jacob Liberman wrote a book called “Light: Medicine of the Future”. In his book, Liberman explains the many advances and uses for light therapy today. He then explains that due to the eff ective, non-invasive and side-eff ect free nature of light therapy and the countless conditions it can be used for makes light therapy the next logical evolution in medicine. With that being said I see my clinic, the fi rst of its type in Canada, thriving and being held as an example for others to follow.

What advice would you give to young women entrepreneurs?Find your passion. You know that one thing that makes you want to get out of bed each morning with a smile on your face and the enthusiasm to carry you through no matter what that day brings. Develop that passion into a product or service people need. Believe in yourself no matter what. And know that every one of us, who have gone before you, have had our ups and downs, doubts and fears, fi nancial concerns and questions. Those who have made it, started with a passion, made a plan, listened to success stories and at times simply putting one step in front of the other until it worked. Be fl exible, change your game plan when needed and surround yourself with people who believe in you.

Tell us about your career path... How did you get your start? When I was 37 years old, and my three sons were independent teenagers, a friend asked me to manage his woodworking business. One opportunity led to another, and then another. Eventually, I reconnected with a former colleague who encouraged me to study and receive my Real Estate license, which led to a great opportunity with Century Group in 1998. I was later asked to market Magnolia Gardens, the retirement phase of a master planned community known as The Meadows, which was completed in 2001.

Why did you get into this specifi c business? Marketing to seniors gave me real insight into the challenging decisions that older people face when downsizing from their homes. I was truly compelled by hearing their needs and thoughts, and when I could assist them in their decision I felt great satisfaction to know I was making a real impact in their lives. Having completed the marketing after a year or more, I came to the point where I had to make a choice to go back to real estate full time or stay on as manager of Magnolia Gardens. My heart had become so involved with all of the residents there, I found that I wanted to assist in providing them with the best possible experience. I found that I didn’t want to leave... I had found my place.

What is your secret to keeping customers coming in? Everybody who visits — whether it be family, friends or even suppliers — comments that Magnolia just ‘feels diff erent’. We have lots of tours and lunches, and we hear over and over again that this place is warm, welcoming and feels like home. Part of this feeling is that we are all so focused on the quality of life we can bring to our residents, which shows in everything we do. All seniors deserve to be treated with respect. I still learn valuable lessons from my residents each day and I feel privileged to have so many people to guide me along the way.

What about your company makes you most proud?We’re a locally-owned seniors’ community, which means we can get things done with a simple phone call. All of our Bria staff know that they make a diff erence in people’s lives every day, and we all have a genuine sense of belonging to something larger than ourselves. The overwhelming thanks we get from family members, and the level of resident satisfaction, gives all of us a great sense of pride.

What is your community involvement? For one, we are one of the founding members of the Fraser Valley Transportation Co-operative, which provides a transportation option to seniors, alternative to bus ownership. I also have a personal involvement, along with our Director of Care, in the Langley Care Initiative, a task force of medical professionals and several other seniors’ communities to solve issues around elder care.

What advice would you give to young women entrepreneursFirst, it doesn’t matter how old you are when you enter the workforce, everyone needs to start sometime. Second, be true to your personal values and convictions, fi nd something you love doing and do it to the best of your ability. And fi nally, cultivate your transferrable skills and think outside the box... being fl exible and agile will help lead you to opportunities you have not yet imagined.

Who said retirement living couldn’t be fun?

Tell us about your career path. How did you get your start? Life took me through many diff erent paths, from the military to being a correctional offi cer. But my love for cooking, especially cooking for family and friends never went away.

Why did you get into this specifi c business? After an early retirement, I jumped into the world of food trucks. “Hot Grandma’s Kitchen” was almost a overnight success. The secret was “having something for everyone on the menu, from dad to kids and dessert as well!” I took the food truck on the road to several festivals, including the Chilliwack Food Truck festival and the fi rst day, there was a lineup of hundreds outside of the truck. The food truck business only reinforced my belief that this was the road I should continue on, and even though it can be exhausting, it is worth it. When the previous owner of Prairie Cottage decided to sell, I took the opportunity to purchase the business.

What is your unique selling point (USP) something that sets you apart?Everything at Cobblestone Cottage is locally sourced and made from scratch. The borscht is my grandma’s recipe.. This meaty and fl avorful beet soup is a labor of love. We make 40-45 litres and it’s gone in ‘just like that’.

What are some of your current promotions, do you have an event or milestone coming up that you want people to know about?Easter is coming up and we will have all of your favourite Ukranian Easter breads available - Bapka, Kutia & Paska.Specials include buy 10 dozen perogies - get one free!

20399 Douglas Crescent, Langley | 604.427.2828 | www.earslangley.com | [email protected]

Why did you get into this specifi c business? Have you ever felt that you were just meant to do something? I did not choose thispath - it chose me. After high school I completed a two year program. While lookingfor my ‘real’ job I took an interim position as a receptionist at a hearing clinic. After afew months an opportunity was presented to me. My employers saw something in methat I did not recognize and off ered to provide me the necessary schooling to becomea Registered Hearing Instrument Practitioner. Fast forward 23 years, I look back onmaking that decision to abandon my original plan and I couldn’t be more grateful for theopportunity I was given. This career has become one of the most fulfi lling jobs I couldhave ever hoped for.

What motivated you to start this business? I had the pleasure of working for a small, successful, hearing clinic for nearly 20 years.As I think of what a ‘Mom & Pop’ family owned business is – this is where I worked formost of my career. Working for a family business has a very diff erent feel and vibe tothe way business is done. Plain and simple, it’s looking out for the best interests of ourclients and their specifi c needs. Once my employers entered into retirement I workedfor another hearing company that was large, successful and opened me to opportunitiesthat I never could have had working at a small clinic. But the client’s needs were notbeing met. It was about achieving a monthly budget. This wasn’t the direction I wantedfor myself or my clients. In 2012 my husband and I decided to take a leap of faith andopen up our own company and go back to the basics of providing great service and tonever sacrifi ce a client’s needs. April 2013 Ears Hearing Clinics was open for business.

Why Langley? I’ve lived in Langley my entire life. Although the once little town of Langley has turnedinto a much bigger city we still have that small town feel among us. The City of Langley

especially. My dad owned his own produce market for 30years. He taught me the importance of supporting yourlocal/community businesses. It’s what keeps our localeconomy going!

What is your secret to keeping customers coming in? I’m hoping that when people are at the time in their livesto either be curious about hearing aids or know they could benefi t from hearing aids realize that ‘service and follow-up care’ are absolutely crucial to the success of their hearing aids. Hearing aids are not an overnight success, they take a lot of time and patience to be successful. The secret that keeps our customers coming back is our staff . That is not something that you can get anywhere else. Kim and Stephanie treats anyone who walks through our doors like a member of the family. Our staff makes Ears Hearing Clinics diff erent from any other clinic around because we are only interested in our client’s need.

What are some of your current promotions, do you have an event ormilestone coming up that you want people to know about? Ears Hearing Clinics – Langley is excited to present our “5th Annual 60+ Lifestyle Expo”is coming up on Thursday, May 26, 2016. We are very excited to be partnering this yearwith The Langley Times, The City of Langley and The Township of Langley. We have agreat day lined up with some pretty wonderful speakers – Global TV Medical Expert, Dr.Art Hister, Licensed Naturopathic Physician of Fort Langley Integrated Health, Dr. ErinRurak & CKNW Radio Host Maureen McGrath.

Tell us about your career path. How did you get started & how long in Business? I have been with Fashion Addition for almost 22 years now. I started my Retail career with Saan Stores 30 years ago working here in Langley & North Delta. 22 years ago I thought I wanted a change a chance to work in a quiet little offi ce but I found I needed to be surrounded by people and fashion once again so I started on my career path with Fashion Addition 14+ Managing the North Delta Store as the company grew Bill & Marilyn Booth (Owners) gave me the opportunity to move forward with the company working as their Company Supervisor.

What motivated you to continue this business?Working for Fashion Addition I have been inspired and motivated by many amazing people, starting with the owners Bill & Marilyn, their passion for fi lling the void of designer fashions for the Curvy Fashionista is contagious. Every day I am inspired by new designers, new fabrics, new styles and new fashion trends. When I think about the amazing team of women I work with here at Fashion Addition I cannot help but smile, each manager & each sales associate brings something new to the table. I have enjoyed watching women join our Fashion Addition Family as part time sales associates wanting nothing more then to be able to play dress up with clients and build amazing wardrobes for themselves, and then they suddenly get the “Bug”, the “Passion” for retail and they want to learn everything there is to know about the business.

What about your company and position makes you most proud? When asked me why I have I stayed with Fashion Addition for this long there is only one answer, I am proud to work for this company. We strive to provide the Curvy Fashionista with amazing Designer Fashions and a World-Class shopping experience. If you haven’t been into one of our stores, take the time to give us a visit and experience the wonderful world of designer fashions for the full fi gured women.

What is it that keeps your Clients returning to Fashion Addition?We have built strong relationships with our clients and strive to provide the plus size women with amazing Designer Fashions and a World-Class shopping experience.

Gators rally falls short

Trio golden at BC’s

GARY AHUJATimes Reporter

The Walnut Grove Ga-tors fought hard in the second half, clawing their way back from an eight-point defi cit to cut the lead down to a single point in the latter stages of the fourth quarter.

But a huge three-point-er from Brentwood Col-lege School’s Olamide Ollatunbosun with the shot clock winding down proved to be too much to overcome for the Gators.

The two schools were playing in the gold-med-al game of the B.C. ju-nior boys provincial bas-ketball championships on Tuesday night at the Langley Events Centre.

The game was played in front of close to 1,000 fans.

Ollatunbosun’s shot put Brentwood College up 46-42.

After the Gators cut the lead to 46-43, the Vancouver Island board-ing school iced the victo-ry with fi ve free throws to prevail 51-43.

“(Brentwood’s) de-fence was relentless,” said Walnut Grove coach Chris Bertoia. “We could not get within six feet of the rim. Their defence was absolutely amaz-ing.”

“Usually our offence dictates the pace of the game (but) there defence dictated the game,” he added.

“There was nothing we could do.”

Brentwood College was the No. 4 seed and knocked off No. 1 Hand-sworth 58-51 in Monday night’s semifi nal. In the other semifi nal, the No. 2 Gators defeated No. 3 Kitsilano 62-55, aveng-ing their only other loss of the season. For the year, Walnut Grove fi n-ished 33-2.

Bertoia said his play-ers were devastated af-ter the loss.

“The boys knew they played their hearts out, they knew they worked as hard as they could,” he said. “There are 300 teams (in the province) and we fi nished sec-ond.”

“It is pretty tough, all the work you put in over the entire year,” said Luke Adams, a Grade 10 player and captain on the team.

“At that moment, it felt worthless. But a second place fi nish in the prov-ince is nothing to hang your head about.”

James Woods — a fi rst team all-star —  led the Gators with 14 points while Luke Adams had 11 points and Dannon Stern had nine points as he hit a trio of three-point shots in the fourth quarter to get Walnut Grove back in the game.

Azino Tyrell Urefe was named a second team all-star for Walnut Grove.

Brookswood’s Trevor Weltzin has his opponent tied up his opponent during his semifi nal match last week at the B.C. high school wrestling championships in Abbotsford. Weltzin won gold in his weight class.

JOHN MORROW Black Press

Walnut Grove Gators’ Azino Tyrell Urefe was named a second team all-star at the B.C. junior boys provincial basketball championships. The Gators lost 51-43 in the gold medal game to Brentwood College School on Tuesday night at the Langley Events Centre.

GARY AHUJA Langley Times

GARY AHUJATimes Reporter

After failing to land on the podi-um as last year’s provincial cham-pionships, Trevor Weltzin was deter-mined not to let that happen again.

Weltzin fi nished fourth at last year’s championships, but another year older and stronger seemed to have done the trick as the Grade 12 Brookswood Secondary student won gold in the boys’ 70-kg division over the weekend.

“I don’t like losing,” he admitted when asked how much last year’ loss in the bronze medal match motivat-ed him.

The provincial championships were held on Feb. 27 and 28 at Ab-botsford’s Ag Rec Centre.

Weltzin went 5-0 at the meet and was also named the championships’ most outstanding wrestler. He did not concede a single point over those matches and Weltzin fi nished the season at 25-0.

His gold was one of three fi rst-place fi nishes for Langley high

school wrestlers as a pair of D.W. Poppy students also won their re-spective classes.

Pritpaul Johal, a Grade 10 student, won gold in the boys’ 51-kg division, defeating the defending provincial champion in the fi nal match.

And Grade 8 Poppy student Parm-jot Sidhu won the boys’ 41-kg com-petition. He did not concede a single point en route to the gold.

The three gold medals are the fi rst time a Langley high school wrestler has fi nished atop the podium at pro-vincials.

Langley Secondary’s Kamil Golowko — who won bronze at pro-vincials in 2015 — moved up the po-dium this year to silver in the boys’ heavyweight (110-kg plus) division.

Poppy’s Manraj Johal (boys 74-kg) placed fourth.

As a team, the Redhawks fi nished fourth in the standings with 40 points, just two back of third place and nine back of top spot.

Tyler Tsoukalas (LSS) fi nished pro-vincials in the top 10 with a 4-2 re-cord. And a trio of female wrestlers also competed at provincials. Ella Hadalin (DWP, Ella Jimenez (DWP) and Caitlin Bartakovic (LSS), and did not place but did gain valuable expe-rience.

Three gold, one bronze for Langley wrestlers at

provincial championships

Kodiaks look to build on last year’s experienceGARY AHUJATimes Reporter

The Credo Christian Kodiaks set the tone early, not allowing a single basket in the opening 10 minutes. Buoyed by that strong start on the defensive side of the ball, the Ko-diaks senior boys bas-ketball team cruised to a 68-42 victory over the Unity Christian Flames.

The two senior boys basketball teams were playing in the Fraser

Valley 1A champion-ship game on Saturday night at Chilliwack’s Unity Christian.

“Winning Fraser Val-leys was one of our goals form the start,” said Kodiaks coach Jus-tin Vanderploeg. “At the beginning of the year it was very apparent we had the talent to do it. We just had to put in a lot of work (and) the boys did just that and it was really nice to see the hard work pay off.”

Credo Christian was

the top seed at Fra-ser Valleys and they beat Agassiz 85-47 in the quarter-fi nals and Meadowridge 69-54 in the semifi nals.

The Kodiaks went 6-2 in league play and 14-7 overall.

In the most recent high school rankings, the Kodiaks came in at seventh.

The team returns fi ve players from last year’s squad which fi nished fourth at the B.C. pro-vincial 1A champion-

ships, tying an all-time best for the program.

“Last year was our fi rst year to provincials in a long time so we are hoping to build on that experience with a better fi nish this year,”

Vanderploeg said. “Now we have a better idea going in the kind of hard work it will take to be successful there.”

At Fraser Valleys, Dustin Flokstra was

named an all-star while Levi Leyenhorst was the most valuable player.

“(Levi) played a great tournament, especially in the fi nals,” Vander-ploeg said. “He does a

great job running our offence from the point and scores the ball very well.”

The provincial cham-pionships run March 9 to 12 at the Langley Events Centre.

Brookswood Bobcats’ Ryan Ly looks to make his move during his team’s opening round game at the B.C. junior boys provincial basketball cham-pionships at the Langley Events Centre. The ’Cats went 2-3, closing their season with a 49-39 win over the Charles Hays Rainmakers on Tuesday.

DAN FERGUSON Langley Times

Four former Langley volleyball stars have earned all-star accolades.

University of the Fraser Valley’s Isaiah Dahl and Joel Kleingeltink —  who attended Langley Christian —  and Douglas College’s Carson Heppell were honoured as PacWest Conference second team all-stars last week.

And Columbia Bible College’s Ryan Newman was named to the confer-ence all-rookie team.

Newman and Heppell both attend-ed Langley Fundamental.

Kleingeltink is a fourth-year out-side hitter for the Cascades and he fi nished third in the league in both total offence (4.05 points per set) and kills (3.35/set).

Dahl, a second-year libero, led the conference in digs per set (3.69) and was tied for fi rst in total digs (277) despite missing four matches.

Heppell, a second-year outside hitter for the Royals, had 2.67 kills per set and 3.48 points per set.

Newman had 3.41 points per set and 2.77 kills per set.

Four earn PacWest all-stars

A pair of Langley metro basket-ball teams were crowned cham-pions in their respective divi-sions of the Basketball BC Metro League.

The championship games were played at Trinity Western Univer-sity on Sunday.

In the U12 fi nal, it was the Langley Clippers cruising past the Crescent Beach Orange Crush 45-24.

And in the U13 game, the Lang-ley Raptors defeated Surrey’s Ju-

nior Crusaders 46-37.•••

The Preston GM U13 Madrid FC girls select soccer team scored three second-half goals to cap-ture the B.C. Coastal Girls Soccer League title.

The Langley soccer team was hosting Vancouver University FC in the championship match on Sunday at Willoughby Communi-ty Park.

And after a scoreless fi rst half, Madrid scored three times: once

off a corner kick, another goal on a penalty kick and then the fi nal tally on a downfi eld rush.

•••Langley Thunder’s Sage Glad-

iuk was her team’s recipient of the Fair Play Award.

The Thunder were compet-ing at the B.C. Lacrosse Associa-tion U15 women’s fi eld lacrosse championships on Feb. 27-28 at Coquitlam’s Town Centre, where they went 1-2.

Langley’s Olivia Ohlmann won

the most valuable player award.•••

After leading his football team to the midget provincial football championship back in December, Keith Pickett has been named the Vancouver Mainland Foot-ball Association coach of the year award.

The long-time Langley Minor Football Association coach and volunteer led the midget team to the title in 2015 as well as coach-ing the bantam team to the title

in 2013.•••

National Lacrosse League com-missioner Nick Sakiewicz left town impressed with what he saw at the Langley Events Centre.

The new commissioner was in town for the Vancouver Stealth’s game against Calgary on Feb. 20.

He is also hoping to expand the nine-team league in the very near future.

Committed to safety since 1953.

How feedback has resulted in a stronger, safer and better project:

• A $100 million investment in the West Coast Marine Response Corporation (WCMRC) for marine safety enhancements.

• A commitment to offset any greenhouse gas emissions resulting from construction.• An increase in safety valves along the pipeline from 94 to 126.• An increase in pipeline wall thickness in sensitive areas, such as urban locations and at river crossings.• Routing of the pipeline to avoid 22 crossings at fi sh-inhabited rivers including

the Fraser, upper North Thompson, Albreda, Coldwater and Coquihalla.• Routing to avoid environmentally sensitive areas, such as Cheam Wetlands and three

BC Class A parks.• Routing of the pipeline to minimize community impacts to the Westsyde neighbourhood in Kamloops

and the Westridge neighbourhood in Burnaby.

For more than four years, we’ve worked together with our neighbours and local communities to hear what they have to say about our proposed pipeline expansion. By listening closely and having an open dialogue, we’ve been able to create a stronger, safer and more responsive project. We are working to meet all the requirements of the regulators, as well as consulting with communities, Indigenous people, government agencies and municipalities – and we’ll continue to work with them throughout development, construction and operations. We know how critical it is to get this right. Most importantly, we’re acting on what we hear with signifi cant changes to the Project.

“I feel strongly that by listening to people, we are making better project decisions.” - Lexa Hobenshield, External Relations Manager, Kinder Morgan Canada

I want to take the time to thank you for the fantastic new Rogue I now drive and LOVE! I like most people dread the thought of coming to a car dealership and being cornered into a something I’m not interested in. However that was far from the case when working with Rena at Jonker Nissan. From the follow-up email to my initial inquiry she was professional and listened to what was interested in. She provided me with several different options with various different price points being sure to point out the different benefits of each option. She was delightful to work with; I didn’t expect to purchase a new vehicle that day but Rena instilled confidence in your organization and the vehicle I wanted so I was very comfortable making that decision immediately and I have not suffered buyer’s remorse on that decision, quite the opposite...I love the new Rogue! Rebekah Crowley

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

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

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

We were looking to buy a sedan, we called several dealers including Jonker Nissan. The salesman on the phone was very friendly and polite. We live in Abbotsford but because of how nice Vonn was on the phone we decided to go see him the next day. We were more impressed with his professionalism and how he took care of us, so we bought a brand new Sentra from him. Thank you so much Vonn. Mr. & Mrs. Gill

Rena was fantastic and made it feel like a family environment which allowed us to make a confident as well as educated decision in our first family vehicle. Jesse

LEANEYKenneth Charles

August 30, 1934 - January 31, 2016

The family is saddened to announce the passing of Ken at Royal Jubilee Hospital on January 31, 2016 of complications following heart surgery.Leaving to mourn the loss of their best friend are his wife of 59 years, Marlene, son Douglas (Aga) and daughter Susan Hagan. He is also survived by his brother Doug (Helga) and his beloved granddaughters, Nan and Zosia, and Ebony and Ashley Rose, sisters-in-law Brenda (Ted) and Marj (Bob), brother-in-law Jim

(Brenda) and many nieces and nephews.Ken was born August 30, 1934 to Edward and Gladys Leaney in Winnipeg, Manitoba. The family moved to Calgary shortly after and lived there for several years before settling in Penticton where he fi nished his schooling. He met Marlene soon after he graduated and when the opportunity arose to join the jewellery business, he moved to Chilliwack to work for Don Lange Jewellers.He and Marlene were married in 1956 and were moved to Langley to manage the store there. In 1966 he and Marlene purchased the store and for the next 27 years worked together.Ken was always very active in the community. He belonged to the Kinsmen Club of Langley and in 1972 was made District Governor for B.C. He was also honored with a Life Membership. In the sixties, Ken organized Langley Days, which became a popular community affair. In December 1989 the couple sold the business and retired to Qualicum Beach. In 1993 Ken founded the Parksville Probus Club and was President for three years. He went on to become President of Probus Canada for two years.Ken loved to laugh, loved people and most of all enjoyed coffee with his buddies every day at Bailey’s.

A Celebration of Life will be held March 19, 2016 at 2pm at St. Stephen’s United Church in Qualicum Beach.

When not working, Terry could be found enjoying himself in the great outdoors or occupying his time with one of his many projects. He was an avid hunter, fi sherman and a skilled craftsman. He loved to go camping or hunting with family and friends or just for a quiet drive into the mountains.

Terry was predeceased by both of his parents. Terry is survived by his loving wife Lorraine, his son David (Leah), and his daughter Trisha (Jarl) and his amazing grandchildren Bailey, Tanner and Bo and his four legged friends Otis and Joey.

A memorial service for Terry will be held at First Memorial Funeral Services Fraser Heights Chapel in Surrey, BC 14835 - Fraser High-way in Surrey, BC on Saturday, March 5th, 2016 at 1:00 pm.
