Jury shown re-enactment of murders Hours-long video played at Robert Bradshaw’s trial for double homicide after convicted killer refuses to testify Monique TaMMinga Times Reporter
A B.C. Supreme Court jury watched a police video of double murderer Roy Thielen re-enacting how he and accused murderer Robert Bradshaw carried out the killings of Laura Lamoureux and Marc Bontkes in March 2009. After Thielen, 33, was arrested in July 2010, he offered to take police through how the murders happened and who was involved, speaking matter-of-factly, as he went to the scenes and recreated the killings. The jury watched as he re-enacted how he unloaded bullets into his ex-girlfriend Lamoureux on March 14, 2009.
The video was being played at Bradshaw’s trial. He faces two counts of firstdegree murder in the killings of Lamoureux and Bontkes. Thielen is already serving a life sentence for the crimes. His “adopted” sister Michelle Motola, 21, is serving a six-year sentence for her part in the killing of Bontkes. Judge Bruce Greyell allowed the jury to watch the hours of video, but instructed them that Thielen’s accounts of those murders is hearsay and that he is “not only an unsavoury character but described as an enforcer who already pleaded guilty to these murders.” Greyell also said videos like this are not usually permitted because the accused can’t be cross-examined about his evi-

dence, which could reveal lies and inconsistencies. Thielen has been cited for contempt after refusing to testify against his coaccused last week. He could face more time for contempt but is already serving life without the chance of parole for 20 years. Thielen told police in the video that he offered, against his lawyer’s wishes, to give them everything because it’s the “right thing to do . . . because it is what his family and their families would want. “I get what I deserve. It was all for greed and personal gain,” he said. “Everyone involved, if they aren’t taken down it will happen again.” Thielen alleges that on March 14, 2009, he was driving around doing drug deals

with Bradshaw, who was working for a competing dial-a-dope operation in Langley. Bradshaw was called by Lamoureux for some drugs. Because Lamoureux and Thielen had “a beef,” the double murderer was dropped off at a park while Bradshaw — known as Paulie — took her drugs. Thielen alleges that he was dropped off at the corner of 202A Street and 50 Avenue with his loaded .45 gun. He showed how he crouched down in some bushes as he heard her boots on the pavement in the early morning hours. He shot her numerous times before getting back into Bradshaw’s car. continued, PAGE 4

$1,500 fine for killing Aldergrove flagger Vikki HOPES Black Press
A flagger who witnessed coworker Don Cain get hit by a car in Mission in July 2010 and dragged to his death sobbed in court Monday, as she told Judge Jill Rounthwaite how the incident had affected her. Ingrid Ayana, in giving her victim impact statement during the sentencing hearing for driver Thor Shay of Mission, said she can’t sleep, has panic attacks, and can’t get images of the crash out of her mind. She said she had switched places with Cain only six minutes before he was struck, and she blames herself for his death. Crying could be hear throughout the packed courtroom during her statement. The judge wiped away her own tears before stepping down from her bench to hug and comfort Ayana. Rounthwaite sentenced Shay, 59, to a $1,500 fine and a oneyear driving ban for a charge of driving without due care and attention. Shay was scheduled to begin trial on Monday in Abbotsford provincial court, but entered a surprise guilty plea. The judge acknowledged to
family members in attendance that the sentence was “laughable in comparison to the death of your son and brother. “There is nothing that the court can do that can possibly make it better or can in any way compensate, or be sufficient for, the death of a loved one,” Rounthwaite said. According to the provincial Crown c o u n s e l spokesperson, the maximum amount applicable under Don Cain the law for that offence is $2,000. Cain, a 49-year-old Aldergrove resident, was working as a flagger on Lougheed Highway just west of Oliver Street on July 15, 2010 when he was struck by Shay. It was a clear day and roads were dry at the time. Crown and defence lawyers said during their agreed statements of facts that Shay had been temporarily blinded by the sun and did not see Cain before he hit him. He was not speeding at the time, they said. But Cain’s sister, Sherry Isenor,
read from a WorkSafeBC report during her victim impact statement, indicating that an investigator from the agency had travelled the same route, at the same time of day in similar weather conditions within a week of the crash, and reported the sun was not an issue, Isenor said. She also read a portion of the report that stated Shay’s windshield had been cracked and dirty at the time of the incident. Isenor was joined in the courtroom by sister Debbie Cain, herself a flagger; mom Irene Cain; and several members of the B.C. Flagging Association. Cain’s two sons, ages Vikki HOPES/Black Press 19 and 20, were too Don Cain’s family, sister Debbie Cain, mother Irene Cain and sister traumatized to be there, Sherry Isenor, were on hand at the Abbotsford courthouse on Monday Isenor said. as the man who hit and killed the Aldergrove resident, who was workAssociation co-founder Tammy Sampson stood ing as a flagger on a job in Mission, was sentenced. up in court to suggest the laws need to be through our construction zones “A $1,500 fine is ridiculous changed for drivers who kill or on a daily basis,” she told the … He should at least be doing injure flaggers. judge. some jail time to prove the fact “I think a $1,500 fine is too Outside of court, the family that you can’t be out there killminimal.

Bus IncIdents
Man pleads guilty to two unprovoked attacks MOniquE TaMMinga Times Reporter
A 20-year-old Surrey man charged in connection with two violent attacks on local transit, including the choking of a bus driver and stabbing of a passenger in Aldergrove, pleaded guilty in Surrey Provincial Court on Wednesday. Steven Fayant was expected to go to trial, charged with aggravated assault for
the stabbing of a 41-year-old Langley man who was getting off the bus near Aldergrove Centre Mall on Feb. 21. Fayant is also charged with assault in connection with choking a Surrey bus driver on Feb. 18. Before police knew who the attacker was, the bus drivers’ union issued a public warning about the attacks. At the time, Langley RCMP said that Fayant was arrested a couple of days later
at his Surrey home. The arrest was made possible after a Langley Mountie recognized the man from surveillance footage provided by TransLink. He is also dealing with another charge of assault that took place on Sept. 25, 2011 in Langley. Fayant was denied bail and has been behind bars since the February attacks. Fayant is due back in court on Dec. 5 for a pre-sentencing hearing. The judge
has ordered a psychiatric evaluation. The victim of the stabbing wasn’t known to Fayant and it isn’t known what provoked the stabbing, said police. He was stabbed in the back as he was getting off the bus. The 41-year-old victim has recovered from the stabbing. In the Surrey incident, a rider returned to the driver and started choking him. The assailant suddenly let go and ran off the bus.

Health Matters
Have you ever woken up with a “crick” in your neck? There is a variety of things that can contribute to neck pain, such as arthritis, but taking a look at how you sleep can help a great deal. Your neck is happiest with back or side sleeping. Ensure your pillow is soft enough to conform to your neck and support it without making it flex up or down. And use a U-shaped neck pillow when upright, such as on an airplane. Overuse of painkillers, such as acetaminophen, ASA, codeine products and anti-inflammatories, can actually cause headaches! They are termed “rebound headaches” and tend to affect people who use painkillers 10-15 days or more per month. The treatment is to stop the medications completely – but it may take up to a month for the headaches to resolve. Acupuncture is often a suggested alternative treatment. Migraines affect approximately 12 per cent of the population and often trend in families. Some

CITY OF LANGLEY “The Place to Be!”
Killer tells cops he hopes his story serves as warning from PAGE 1
He alleges the pair went back to Paulie’s basement suite and smoked dope before he was driven home, still carrying his gun. He alleges that five days later, Bradshaw, his girlfriend Motola and Thielen killed Bontkes in Hi-Knoll Park. In the video, Thielen claims they actually tried to kill Bontkes a few nights prior, but Paulie didn’t go through with it. In the “dry run,” Thielen alleges that he hid on the floor of the backseat, holding his shotgun, underneath a ski jacket. He waited for Paulie to attack Bontkes but it didn’t happen. Motola drove with Bontkes while Bradshaw pretended to be passed out in the back. They ended up dropping Bontkes off that time. The night of the murder, Thielen alleges that Motola dropped them off at Hi-Knoll Park, a place “that was off the radar for cops.” The pair got the .45 gun ready and hid under a tree, he
said. Motola called up Bontkes after 3 a.m., asking him to drive with her while she did drug deals. Motola, like all of them, was a runner for a diala-dope line. When Bontkes got out of the car at the park, Thielen alleges Bradshaw opened fire. Thielen alleges Bradshaw didn’t like Bontkes because he had kept calling Motola. As for why Thielen would want him dead, he alleges Bontkes kept ripping off everybody who worked for the diala-dope lines. After Bontkes’ murder, he alleges that they went back to Bradshaw’s house and stashed the gun in a hidden compartment underneath the kitchen sink. He alleges that later that week his drug boss ordered him to sell the gun. It was allegedly sold to a gang in Vancouver. Thielen said he told several people, and several others more knew he killed the pair. He alleges police arrested him for a random traffic stop on his way to kill someone else after those two killings.
Despite all that, it took a Mr. Big, undercover police operation, to arrest Thielen. He told the police he wasn’t angry with those officers who played a gang crime boss and gang associates. “They were that good,” he said. In between shooting reenactments, Thielen ate a burger and drank a pop, telling the officers that he hopes his actions can be a lesson for kids about the harms of drugs. “Kids don’t realize one minute you are smoking weed, next coke, then you are working a dope line and you’re in there and can’t get out,” he told police. “Dope made me think it was OK to kill those people.” Thielen was addicted to speed (meth) at the time of the killings. He remarked that he hoped to one day be able to speak to kids about what he has done because of drugs or “maybe write a book about it. I certainly have the time.” Bradshaw’s trial continues, but is expected to wrap up this week.

Town hall meeting Saturday in Langley City
Langley residents will get a chance to air concerns with representatives of all levels of government on Saturday. The latest in a series of town hall meetings will take place from 10 a.m. to 12 noon at Douglas Recreation Centre, 20550 Douglas Crescent in Langley City. On hand to speak and respond to questions from the public will be Langley MP Mark Warawa, Langley MLA Mary Polak, Langley City Mayor Peter Fassbender and Langley Board of Edu-
cation chair Wendy Johnson. This meeting is a follow-up to an earlier town hall meeting sponsored by Langley Township in the spring. That meeting involved Township Mayor Jack Froese, and attracted a large crowd. It was also the first to accept questions via Twitter. The Twitter questions were numerous, and this meeting will follow up on that new ability for elected officials to engage with the public.
Froese recently held his first Twitter town hall meeting. This meeting is sponsored and organized by Langley City. Times editor Frank Bucholtz will serve as moderator for the event. Todd Hauptman, MLA Mary Polak’s social media manager, will manage the Twitter aspect of the meeting. The hashtag #asklangley will be used and tweets will be accepted, starting on Oct. 17 and up to and during the town hall

meeting. As many relevant and appropriate tweets as possible will be addressed at the meeting, as time allows. Members of the public are invited to attend in person, and if unable to do so, to send tweets. Organizers say this is a good opportunity to have direct contact with representatives of all levels of government, and for questions that involve more than one level of government to be more easily addressed.

Fort Langley buildings draw lots of interest
Miranda Gathercole Times Reporter
There’s a “creeping homogeneity” among the buildings in Fort Langley, taking away the eclectic nature of the village, design consultant Robert Inwood told Fort Langley residents at a public meeting on Thursday night. Crowds were spilling outside of the packed Fort Langley Community Hall for a chance to listen in on the meeting about the future growth of Fort Langley. The meeting was sponsored by Fort Langley Community Association. Inwood, a design consultant and heritage specialist for the past 35 years, gives credit to business owners who have renovated their buildings to have an old-fashioned look, but says there is more that can be done. “If I was to critique some of the sort of replicative work that’s been done here in Fort Langley, it would be that the heritage elements I think are really rather generic and not particularly based in anything really interesting or truly historic,” he said. Inwood was invited by the Fort Langley Community
Association to make a presentation at the meeting along with Terry Lyster, the director of planning for the Township from 1997-2004, and Nathan Pachal, a blogger for southfraser.net, in light of the controversial Coulter Berry Building proposal. Set for the corner of Mavis Avenue and Glover Road, the Coulter Berry building is receiving flack from some village residents for reasons including being three feet taller than the limit in the Township’s heritage bylaws and for not having enough parking. When the panel members were asked for their opinions of the three-storey design plans, Pachal said the Coulter Berry Building will work well to anchor that corner. The building’s accessibility, underground parking and inclusion of shops, residences and commercial space is why he personally likes the development, he said. Lyster believes the third storey should be considered with caution. “I would really put pressure on the designers to try to come up with something that is not going to be an insult to the community,” he said. From a design point of view, Inwood says a three-sto-

rey building can be made to fit the environment of a community like Fort Langley. Traditionally, two-storey heritage buildings are actually the same height as modern threestorey structures. However, “there are elements of design as it stands that it is attractive enough, but it could be more interesting,” he said. “I would like to see future developments hopefully raise the bar a little bit in terms of the design solutions that come forward to the community.” Inwood suggests that in order to “make a nice, pleasant, attractive downtown, but not just the neo-faux-heritage Disney Land-esque” look, designers need bring more art back to their buildings. “If that means bringing artists in to the design mix along with the architects who sometimes don’t seem to know how to draw anything other than straight lines, then we need to start involving them,” he said. “I think this is a great community, but I think maybe you should challenge your designers a little bit more to start trying to create some imagery and quality here that is even more unique to Fort Langley moving forward, rather than just imitating a faux-past.”

Eric Bysouth passed away on Friday, after several months in hospital. He was 89. He was a very active member of the Langley community for over 40 years, and was a recipient of the H.D. Stafford Good Citizen Award in 1993. Among his many activities over the years were involvement in the Langley Rotary Club, Valley Transportation Advisory Council, Langley Reunification Association and the Arboretum and Botanical Society of Langley. He was also involved in Scouting and as a volunteer with the YMCA. He and his wife Helen celebrated their 65th wedding anniversary last year. Mr. Bysouth served in the Royal Canadian Air Force in the Second World War and spent many years working for the federal government. The Bysouths moved to Langley about 1970, and lived for many years on a picturesque property on 232 Street, with a tributary of the Nicomekl River flowing through. While Mr. Bysouth was involved with the Conservative and Reform parties, his main interests were in the area of public policy. He was a prolific writer of letters to the editor, with his last letter to The Times published on June 14, shortly before he was hospitalized. That letter dealt with the issue of Canada’s fiscal position and how it was important for the federal government to keep the economy strong. Even while in hospital, he was keeping up with issues that he had an interest in. His letters often prompted responses from other readers,
and one published in March, 2009 prompted several. This is an excerpt of a letter from Don Woode, responding to an attack made on a Bysouth perspective by another letter writer. “I don’t always agree with Eric Bysouth, but (letter writer) Ritchie is correct in one aspect of the letter. Eric is a legend, and not only “in his mind” as stated. He is a true legend amongst those of us who have been here a while, and know of his untiring Contributed photo contributions to Eric Bysouth received the Queen’s this community. “Without his Diamond Jubilee medal from Langley efforts, McLeod MP Mark Warawa, while he was in hosPark would not be pital this summer. anywhere near the in.

Outpouring of love comes a bit too late
T
he Amanda Todd story, as noted in the guest editorial from the Penticton Western News on this page, has captured tremendous pubic and media attention. It’s good that the issue of bullying, and in particular cyber-bullying, has again captured many peoples attention, because it is a pervasive one. It is not confined to children and teens, as much of the storyline in the media seems to indicate. There are many instances of bullying on very important stages. It happens in Parliament, in the provincial legislature, at many council tables and at many, many workplaces. Hostile, insulting and demeaning behaviour is a way of life for many people — and there are thousands of victims. One venue where bullying is available on an hourly basis is the television screen. Many shows, particularly reality shows, feature rude and abusive words and actions towards others. All this is done in the name of entertainment, but it sets a very bad example for impressionable people who watch it. Cyber-bullying has become pervasive with the rise of the internet. Young people in particular seem to not fully understand how the words and photos they post go viral and cause damage on a much greater scale than in earlier generations. This is certainly what Amanda Todd was feeling, as cyber-bullying aimed at her simply intensified, even after she changed schools. There are no simple answers. The internet isn’t going away. Rude and abusive behaviour is often learned, but when someone engages in this type of behaviour, it is very difficult for that person to change. While bullying curricula are now standard at schools, bullying behaviour is best dealt with at home. From the time children are small, parents need to model good behaviour to them — in words and actions. They need to show them that it is unacceptable to call people names, make fun of their looks and post rude things about them online. They also need to offer unconditional love and acceptance to their kids. Those who are bullied need to have immediate and ongoing support. This is hard to come by in schools, where bullies often engage in such behaviours to become popular. It is difficult to stand up to bullies in schools — even with support from principals and teachers. Leadership on many fronts is needed to help curb bullying.

f only half of the outpouring of love and support directed towards Amanda Todd had come a week earlier, there’s a good chance the B.C. teen would still be alive today. The 15-year-old Port Coquitlam girl committed suicide last Wednesday, a month after posting a haunting video to YouTube detailing her years of abuse from harassment and bullying both at school and online. Todd posted the nine-minute video online at the beginning of September, showing her holding up a series of hand-written cards describing the anxiety and depression she was suffering. The video ends with her note: “I have nobody. I need someone.” The story of her tragic suicide has captured the attention of media around the world, and more than a dozen online memorials have been set up on Facebook, with one already boasting more than 500,000 “likes.” Police have about two dozen investigators sifting through leads to find any evidence that could result in charges against individuals, while hundreds of tips are pouring into an email account set up by RCMP. While we hope police are successful in identifying those responsible for tormenting Todd, that will do nothing to prevent a repeat of this heartbreaking story. Coroner Barb McLintock said in order for her to make recommendations to prevent similar tragedies, issues ranging from school and mental health support, to cyber and social media bullying must be explored. —Penticton Western News (Black Press)

Honour House backs highway sign Editor: Re: “Highway of Heroes is confusing,” letters, The Times, Oct. 9). Unfortunately, Jacob de Raadt does not have a complete understanding of the intent or reasoning in the naming of the Langley section of Highway 1. This was so named to carry on the recognition of the sections of Highway 1 that are so named across Canada. If one were to read the sign completely, you would note that it also carries the insignias of 3rd CAV (Canadian Army Veterans), who represent the dead, living and wounded and are based in the Chilliwack area. The sign also carries the insignia of Honour House, which represents all first defenders — military, police, firefighters and paramedics. This is a first in Canada. It involved no federal help. Honour House is a home away from home for any of these people and their families to stay at no cost to them while receiving medical aid or treatment. The home is located in New Westminster. The concept came from Allan De Genova, after meeting Capt. Trevor Greene of the Seaforth Highlanders of Canada. He was severely wounded in Afghanistan and was treated in various hospitals and provinces without the benefit of free accommodations for his family and fiancée. He felt that there was a need to assist and honour these people. Honour House Society was formed. De Genova then set out to find a site,
an architect and a way to build it. He approached the Vancouver Regional Construction Association for advice. They approached me to see if it could be built on a volunteer basis. As a retired past chairman of the association and its life members, I assured both groupsies that it could be done by donations of labour, cash and Mario BARTEL/Black Press materials. Ann Bason, the mother of Aldergrove resident Master Cpl. Work was Colin Bason who was killed in Afghanistan, Allan De Genova, started in April, the president of Honour House and Barry Drews, of the 3rd 2009 and completed in October, Canadian Army Veterans, admire the mock-up of the Highway of Heroes sign before it was posted along the Trans-Canada 2011.

Editor: I had a terrible experience this morning (Oct. 11) and something must be done. While walking my dogs, I witnessed a near fatality on the corner of 88B Avenue and 216 Street. A young boy, probably eight years old, came one second from being hit and killed by a Jeep. The boy rode his little scooter down 88B and right
onto 216 Street without looking both ways. The Jeep driver slammed on the brakes, and the skid was very loud and scary. I’m sure the Jeep driver was as shaken up as I was, if not more so. I’ll be sending this letter to the Township of Langley, insisting that they put up a lighted pedestrian crossing on that corner. I don’t want any committees
struck to study this, or any delay whatsoever. This needs to be done now. The Township doesn’t know that a lot of children going to and from school cross the road at that exact spot. Does someone have to die before anything is done? Let’s hope not. Carol Mohr, Langley
Editor: Finally we have an idea that makes perfect sense and would go a long way to solving 16 Avenue traffic woes (“Time for rethink on 0 Avene, The Times, Oct. 4). It puts matters in perspective and is far more logical than anything that has been brought forward to date. Up to this point we’ve been told: * The police are unable to patrol and pull over vehicles on 16 Avenue, due to narrow shoulders and no pullouts. This alone gives motorists all the permission they need to set their own speed limits. * There is no money to upgrade and improve 16 Avenue, at the present time. With this in mind, I shake my head and ask why? Why would the powers that be facilitate the building of an interchange at Highway 99 and 16 Avenue (“Ministry moves on 16 Ave. on-ramps,” Peace Arch
News, Sept. 25) when 16 Avenue is already overloaded with more traffic than it can handle now? It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to know this will only contribute to funnelling of more traffic onto this overloaded country road. In 2004, when council was holding meetings on the 0 Ave. speed humps, I recall Councillor Mel Kositsky being somewhat exasperated over the Township’s Master Road Plan, or lack thereof. He said he had heard of this Master Road Plan for 20 years, and had yet to see anything that resembled one. I don’t think we’ve progressed anywhere since then. It is my opinion that the Township is being reactive, not proactive, in traffic planning. It is using Band-Aid solutions on traffic situations that call for major surgery. Why not fix it once and fix it right?
Bring 0 Avenue back into the equation. It is a perimeter road that would work well for the commuters and alleviate a lot of unnecessary traffic flowing through the more populated areas. Also, as the letter writer states, it would be a much safer route, due to no cross streets. One two-lane country road should not be expected to carry all the east/west traffic for the entire portion of the southern Township. It is overtaxed and unsafe at the present time and the interchange is only going to create more traffic and many more problems. I would like to remind our mayor, council, engineers etc. that you have a responsibility for the safety of those of us who live on or near 16 Avenue, and those of us who have to use it. D. Johnston, Langley

Sad week for girls Editor: Last week was a sad and scary week for girls. Malala Yousafzai was shot because she refused to back down from speaking up for education and freedom for girls and women in Pakistan. Amanda Todd, who was lured by a pedophile to make one foolish mistake that led to endless and vicious taunting, finally was unable to stand it any longer. They are two different stories, both of which reflect a lack of respect for girls and women as valuable human beings. Thank God for men like Langley MP Mark Warawa who, in putting forward Motion 408 (opposition to sex-selective abortion), is taking a stand for girls and women while they are still in the womb of their mothers — a very good place to start with respect for girls.

SoundS of Silence
Editor: As longtime Langley Township residents, we find the silence surrounding aspects of land purchase and municipal planning to be alarming. First, there was the purchase of land adjacent to the Langley Events Centre. The following week, there was a vague reference to the possibility of the Township securing a gaming centre. Will the citizens of Langley Township be able to voice their views on this matter? The Oct. 11 issue of The Times references a lawsuit by an addicted gambler against Langley City’s Cascades Casino and the provincial government. During Langley City’s casino public hearings (we were in attendance), the vast majority spoke out against granting a licence, citing the breakdown of families and the increase of gambling addiction. The voices of those in attendance were met with silence from the existing council, with the exception of then-councillor Peter Fassbender. We urge Langley Township council to engage its citizens as it plans the future of our community. We do not want to remain silent on this matter, and ask for the opportunity to voice our concerns.

Zoo regains CAZA accreditation Monique TaMMinga Times Reporter
The Greater Vancouver Zoo has been granted re-accreditation with CAZA (Canada’s Accredited Zoos and Aquariums). The accreditation process takes place every five years where the zoo has to go through a very comprehensive application process, followed by a review from the CAZA Accreditation Committee Board. Then a team of inspectors is selected for an onsite inspection. The inspection team visited B.C.’s only zoo for “a rigorous” three and a half days in August to inspect zoo operations including animal health care, exhibits, husbandry of all our animals, educational programs, safety/security, guest services, conservation, research, staff training programs, finances and the physical facilities, said zoo manager Jody Henderson. The CAZA inspection team was comprised of a veterinarian, specialist in education and communications, and operations expert. The zoo is undergoing sev-

B.C.’s third E. coli case found in Fraser Health region Patient is recovering after eating contaminated beef which was purchased in British Columbia Jeff Nagel Black Press
An adult in the Fraser Health region is recovering after contracting the same E. coli strain spread in beef contaminated at the XL Foods plant in Alberta. It’s the third confirmed E. coli case in the province linked to the massive beef recall and it brings the total to 15 in
Canada. A second detected case announced Friday by the B.C. Centre for Disease Control was a foreign visitor who tested positive in the Vancouver Coastal region after eating beef in both Alberta and B.C. That person has returned home. The Fraser Health patient ate beef bought in B.C. and authorities are investigating, hoping to trace the exact source.
YOUR OSTOMY SUPPLY AND CARE SPECIALISTS
BCCDC officials say foodborne illness from the 0157 strain of E. coli is not uncommon and they have not detected any unusual increase in the typical rate of those cases — 110 to 180 per year. B.C.’s first case was a Vancouver Island man who has since recovered. The Canadian Food Inspection Agency has agreed to let XL Foods restart production on a limited basis. Various beef products from the plant were sold under multiple brand names and ended up in most major grocery outlets in B.C. For details on products subject to XL Foods beef recall, see http://inspection.
gc.ca/recalls_XLFoods. E. coli infection may cause mild to severe symptoms including diarrhea and stomach cramps. In severe cases diarrhea may become bloody. Symptoms start an average of three to four days after exposure to the bacteria, and usually last between five to 10 days. Rarely, it can lead to kidney failure and death. Health authorities also advise consumers to cook raw beef to at least 71 C and to avoid cross-contamination by keeping hands, knives, cutting boards and other surfaces clean.

Fantasy won’t keep ferries afloat
I
t was a sunny Thanksgiving weekend when I took my first alltransit trip from Victoria to Vancouver for a B.C. Lions football game. Despite all the doomsaying about people shunning ferries because of some mediadetermined “tipping point” in fares, you wouldn’t have guessed it that weekend. Articulated buses were jammed coming and going from the Tsawwassen terminal to the Canada Line. Returning to Vancouver Island on Sunday, I was struck by the crowds, and the low cost: SkyTrain, express bus, walk-on passenger fare and express bus to Victoria totalled about $20. This explains the surge in walk-on traffic. BC Ferries issued bulletins advising first that Tsawwassen’s parking lot and then Swartz Bay’s were full. The Tsawwassen First Nation’s shuttle parking next door was overflowing, with cars tucked into every level space. And even with hourly sailings, the major route had plenty of vehicle traffic, with all available vessels running. Now the long, late summer is gone, and the political theatre resumes. Transportation Minister Mary Polak picked up where the retiring Blair Lekstrom left off, reminding people that BC Ferries is going to deal with rising costs primarily by ceasing the practice of running vessels a third full or less. This comes as “consultation”

Townhouse plans cause traffic worries for City residents
Hosted by the City of Langley

• The Langley Times • Tuesday, October 16, 2012
Brenda anderson Times Reporter
Come and ask questions of your elected representatives at all levels of government If unable to attend in person, tweet questions to #asklangley during that time period On hand to speak and answer questions will be: MP Mark Warawa MLA Mary Polak Langley City Mayor, Peter Fassbender Langley Board of Education Chair, Wendy Johnson Moderator: Frank Bucholtz, editor, The Langley Times
Plans to construct a total of 46 new townhouses within two separate but related projects in the City of Langley have been met with some hesitation on the part of residents along the municipality’s western border. But it’s not the buildings themselves that are causing the most concern — it’s all the vehicles that invariably come with them. The proposal, which went to a public hearing on Oct. 1, calls for 33 units of three storeys each, to be built at 19728, 19738, 19754, 19764 and 19770 55A Ave. and another 13 units at 19765 and 19773 55A Ave. Several area residents who appeared before council raised concerns over the strain on parking that accompanies multi-family residential developments.
2012
Seven visitor spaces have been allotted for the larger of the two developments, which meets the requirement of .2 visitor spaces per unit, but one resident suggested the developer could do better. “It’s a beautiful project,” she said. “My concern is the opportunity to increase visitor parking. “There is already a lack of parking and cars lined up on both sides (of the street).” Vehicles parked along the sides of the road also block the view of drivers making left turns onto the street, another woman said. Architect Fred Adab pointed out that the developer had opted for lower density than zoning in the area permits — noting there are already two condominiums in the immediate vicinity. He explained that some areas were blocked to traffic altogether, creating a
pedestrian-friendly environment. But traffic isn’t residents’ only reservation about the project. A resident of nearby Huntsfield Green expressed concern about the ability of a retaining wall in between the properties to withstand the construction. She is also worried residents will lose privacy once the three-storey units are built. “Is it possible to have better retaining wall, and a higher wall, built?” she asked. City engineer Gary Vlieg replied that the proponent of the project is responsible for ensuring that the integrity of the wall is maintained. The two developments will be built concurrently and once construction begins, it is expected to take between eight and nine months to complete. The developments passed third reading later in the meeting.

Girl Friday Errands Life’s Busy. We can help. Time is counting down and a well deserved holiday is on the horizon. Before you go, the dog needs to visit the groomers, you have to pack and your to-do list seems to be growing by the hour. By now you are so stressed out that you are thinking, “Why am I going away in the first place?” Maybe you’ve just had a baby or started a new job with a steep learning curve. Vacuuming and cleaning up the kitchen are the last things on your mind when you walk through the door at 7:45 pm! Wouldn’t it be nice to have your own ’Girl Friday’?

This Langley company provides an all-in-one service that includes household cleaning, errands and driving services that won’t break the bank. The company was started by sisters Lisa and Christina Goeller. They lost both of their parents to terminal cancer and personally cared for their mother while she was in the last stages of the disease. They know from personal experience that things can get a little overwhelming. They found companies that provided all in one services to be expensive and impersonal. They also had very restrictive lists of client services. That’s why Lisa and Christina started Girl

Benjamin Buckingham and Julie Casselman play a crime-solving duo with sizzling chemistry in TWU’s Go Back For Murder.
Langley theatre companies and local actors, directors, producers and crew members are gearing up for another season, with a host of offerings – from the dramatic to the comedic and a musical fan-favourite
A
utumn is in the air and with it comes the unmistakable rustle of feet across the boards, all over Langley and across the Lower Mainland. From the first of what will no doubt be many Christmas offerings to a mystery, a murder and a beloved song and dance extravaganza, local theatre groups have something for everyone as they get set to hit the stage for another season.
Belles On
First out of the blocks on
Langley’s Lucas Blaney plays Danny Zuko and Alex Gullason is Sandy in Footlight Theatre’s production of Grease. Paul H. WRIGHT photo
Thursday, Oct. 18, will be the Langley Players, with their production of Christmas Belles. This hysterical holiday comedy centres around a Texas church pageant which spins comically out of control. It’s Christmastime in the small fictional town of Fayro, Texas, and the Futrelle Sisters — Frankie, Twink and Honey Raye — are not exactly in a festive mood. But ‘the show must go on’, and despite a cast and crew made up of town folk who create problem after problem, and the revelation of a family secret that has been carefully guarded for decades, the feuding sisters find a way to pull together in order to present a Christmas program the citizens of Fayro will never forget. “It’s always so exciting working on a new piece, and a comedy is always a hit,” said director Angela Bell. “When I choose a play, I specifically have the audience in mind. I’ve been doing this long enough to know what they like. They enjoy a fun evening out – and that’s exactly what we have put together for them,” said Bell. The Futrelle sisters are played by Patricia Braun, Judith Betzler and Langley’s Robyn Roukema. Rounding out the cast are Langley residents Shelly Lewis, Philip Hale and Joe Tenta, along with Brian Johnston, Emily Doreen Wilson, Jeremy Keith Goodrick, Alaina Holland and Robyn Bradley. Christmas Belles runs Thursday to Sunday, from Oct. 18 to Nov.17 at the Langley Playhouse, 4307 200 St. Show times are 8 p.m. Thursday, Friday and Saturday, with Sunday matinees at 2 p.m. All tickets are $15, season passes are $45. For reservations, call 604-534-7469, or email reservations@langleyplayers.com. Visit www.langleyplayers.com for more information.
Queen
Of
Murder
Over at Trinity Western University, meanwhile, there are mysterious happenings as the School of Arts Media and Culture (SAMC) presents Go Back for Murder, from the queen of whodunits, Agatha Christie. Set in the 1960s, this story of murder, intrigue, and romance runs from Oct. 23 to Nov. 3 – just in time for Halloween. Sixteen years before the play begins, Caroline Crale is sent to prison for murdering her husband. But when Caroline’s daughter comes of age, she receives a secret letter that Caroline wrote before she died, assuring her daughter that she was in fact innocent. Carla enlists the help of a handsome young lawyer to delve into the past and find out what really happened. Can any of the witnesses be trusted? Who has something to hide? Starring as the young, determined Carla (and also appearing in flashbacks as Carla’s mother) is Julie Casselman. Casselman, now in her final year of SAMC’s BFA acting program, has professional theatre credits to her name already. This summer she was the composer and sound designer for Scarlet Satin Productions’ original show [un] BOX[ed] in Vancouver, and in 2011 she performed in Pacific Theatre’s The Great Divorce, directed by two-time Jessie Award winner Kyle Rideout. “This show has everything you could want in a murder mystery,” said Casselman, “clues and red herrings, death by poison, romance where you least expect it, and of course the gorgeous mansion with a host of quirky characters.” Among the suspects Julie’s character investigates are a femme fatale, a secretive governess, a tycoon with a vendetta, and the friendly chemist who might be up to more than science. continued, PAGE 21

Globalization hits home with a trip to Shanghai
A
s I flew into Shanghai this summer and looked out my window, I was quite unprepared for the sight — globalization illustrated on the sea below. What I saw out my window was boats — huge, ocean-going freighters with cargo destined for all points on the globe. It was not so much the size of the boats that was spectacular but the number. It was like the comings and goings of an ant colony, with each ant weighing more than 100,000 tons. In 2010, Shanghai passed Singapore to become the world’s busiest port, and now handles more than 30 million containers per year. It’s hard to comprehend that many 20-foot shipping containers, but it is worth thinking about because it impacts our lives here

China now confidently making their way onto the world stage after years of impoverishment. And we hit the buttons on our iPods, happily streaming the music of the world. How should we think globally? “Act locally, think globally” has more relevance than ever. The local consequences for Langley are fairly clear in terms of railway overpasses. The recent controversy over the Mufford Street rail overpass was resolved with a solution that consumed less of our precious local farmland than the original proposal. But this required a lot of local action. No doubt there are many such issues to come. All I can say is “think about iwt.” David Clements is a professor of biology and environmental studies at Trinity Western University.

Just across Langley’s western border, Surrey Little Theatre is gearing up for their season opening production of Catch Me If You Can, a comedic mystery by Robert Thomas, adapted from a French version by Jack Weinstock and Willie Gilbert. The play, Catch Me If You Can, first opened on Broadway in 1965 and is not to be confused with the 2002 Steven Spielberg movie of the same name.
This play, directed by Tyler Seib, will tickle your brain and tease your imagination while you try to stay ahead of the twist and turn plot. Corban — played by Langley’s Terry Thomas — is beside himself, on his honeymoon in a summer house in the Catskill Mountains belonging to his boss. His wife of two weeks, Elizabeth (Langley’s Kate Bergen) has been missing for three days when in comes Father Kelleher, who magically produces Elizabeth. Corban denies that this woman is his wife, even though she can answer Inspector Levine’s (Langley’s Raymond Hatton) questions down to the last detail. Is she his wife and has Corban gone mad, or is she an impostor? Follow the chase at Surrey Little Theatre with special half price nights on opening preview nights Thursday, Oct. 25 and Friday, Oct. 26. The production runs on Friday and Saturday evenings at 8 p.m. until Nov. 17, with Sunday matinees at 2 p.m. on Nov. 4 and 11. Tickets are $15. To reserve, call 604-576-8451 or email reservations@surreylittletheatre.com or prepaid at www.
brownpapertickets.com. Seasons tickets are now available for all three productions at $42.50. Surrey Little Theatre is located at 7027 184 St.

A little further afield — but still connected to Langley — Burnaby’s Footlight Theatre Company is getting set to present that perennial favourite, Grease. Starring Lucas Blaney (originally from Langley) as Danny Zuko, the hit musical opens on Nov. 9 at Michael J. Fox Theatre. Plot synopsis? No need. The classic, hilariously corny storyline – first love, teenaged cliques, fast friends and faster cars – will be familiar to many… and so will the ’50s-style pop/rock soundtrack, jam-packed with beloved hits. From Summer Nights and Greased Lightnin’ to Born to Hand Jive and We Go Together, audiences won’t be able to stop themselves from singing along. Tickets start at $19.59 at www.ticketstonight.ca.

Fast cars, the recklessness of youth and alcohol. It can be a deadly combination. And even those lucky enough to survive a serious crash can find their lives Broken into Pieces. That is both the premise and the title of Langley author Eleanor Ryan’s new novel. Told in the first person from the perspective of a mother whose son survived a terrible wreck only to be left with spinal cord and brain injuries, the story is not Ryan’s — exactly. But it’s not far from the author’s own experience. Broken into Pieces is a fictionalized version of events from Ryan’s life, told with the blessing of her son ‘Ron’ who suffered serious, irreversible injuries in a car crash. “If by telling my story, one kid is saved from making the same stupid mistakes I did, then it will be worth it,” Ron told his mother. His story is basically this: A teenage boy has a drink or two, climbs into his sports car late at night during a winter storm and crashes, injuring his spinal cord and brain.
The aftermath of the accident is a downward spiral into drug addiction, from which he must recover. For Ryan, the point of telling the story in a novelized form was that she wanted to underscore the universality of the issue. “This could be anybody, anywhere. Where it happened, who it happened to doesn’t matter,” she said. “That it still happens matters. “I see young people out there, screaming around in their cars like my son used to do.”
Ryan will launch and sign copies of her book at the City of Langley library on Saturday, Oct. 20. Former Langley City fire chief and author Jim McGregor will provide opening remarks. As an emergency first responder, McGregor has seen first hand, many times, the aftermath of bad choices. Ryan’s book, he noted, picks up where his and his colleagues’ involvement leaves off — with the rest of a life that will never be the same as it was. After the relief of learning your child has survived, said Ryan, “your first instinct is ‘OK, fix him.’ “But the person you knew never comes home again.” There is a particular segment of the population she hopes to reach — risk-taking youths. “I’d like to get this into secondary schools,” said the author. “I wanted it to be readable so people would pick it up — parents and kids.” Ryan will be joined by fellow Langley Writers Guild author Cora Goodyear, who will be releasing her own book, titled From Prison to Freedom.

Walnut Grove’s Laurie Belle Gets Cooking With the Stars
HELP YOU

CLEARLY
Miranda Gathercole Times Reporter
What’s the secret to turning a good meal into a spectacular meal? What is it that sets some restaurants above and beyond their competitors? Shaw TV host Laurie Belle investigates with some of Canada’s top celebrities and chefs on Get Cooking With the Stars. The Walnut Grove resident is currently preparing to launch the second season of the variety cooking show on Oct. 20. A foodie herself, getting the inside scoop from some of the Lower Mainland’s best chefs has been a rewarding experience. “I have always enjoyed cooking; I get that from my mom,” Belle said. “I love the entertaining energy that goes around it. So the show is absolutely amazing, I’m learning so much from the guests.” Being in front of the camera is nothing new for Belle, whose lengthy resumé includes roles on TV shows, in movies and in fashion modeling. This is on top of earning degrees in business and communication and a master’s in education. Last season Belle took viewers inside the cookbooks of chefs Hidekazu Tojo, from Tojo’s restaurant and David Rocco from the Food Network TV show Dolce Vita. She has also tested the kitchen skills of celebrity guests Geroy Simon of the B.C. Lions, actresses Amanda Tapping, April Telek and Jennifer Spence, and even Gene Simmons. “Every endeavor, I learn something about a celebrity chef — they are very adept at what they do,” Belle said, adding that it’s inspiring “when you meet someone superior at their craft.” While on the show, every guest must also perform some sort of variety act and “sing for their supper,” Belle explained. “Each show is different because it is tailored to the guest,” she said.

Walnut Grove’s Laurie Belle is set to host the second season of Get Cooking with the Stars on Shaw TV, with a launch party on Saturday, Oct. 20. “For example, singer Sara Lynn was on the show and we tailored the menu for her because she has celiac disease. Things like that are very important.” One of the most memorable interviews she has had is with comedian Darryl Lenox, who she ended up taking on a fishing excursion. “You have to be ready for any kind of situation,” she said with a laugh. Beyond learning new cooking techniques and chatting with celebrities, the show is also a platform to highlight
local charities. Belle’s next endeavor is raising money for the Beauty Night Society through the official Get Cooking With the Stars red carpet launch party on Oct. 20. The society provides wellness, life skills development and makeovers programs for women in poverty. The launch party is being held at the Howe Street Art Gallery, 555 Howe Street, at 6 p.m. Tickets are $40 and can be purchased at www.leftcoasttv. com or by calling 604-2195181.

10 Years of Fear at Potters House of Horrors T F
his year marks the tenth year of the Lower Mainland’s most fantastic fright show. Potters House of Horrors opened Friday Oct 12 amid rave reviews. Built entirely inside their greenhouses on 72nd Ave., guests are invited to make their way through 10,000 sq ft of dark twisty hallways that lead to deadly displays and raise-thehair-on-the-back-of-your-neck surprises. The event boasts live actors, a computer operated sound system as well as extensive animation designed to scare you silly. Head of Potters Ghoul Crew Chris Pershick, told this reporter, “Construction starts right after Labour Day and continues right up to opening night. We have an experienced team of 12 who design and construct the various ‘rooms.’ We have many different sets stored in warehouses year round and to keep things fresh, we only use a portion of them each year. Every year we introduce new designs, ‘scares’ and special effects so we are able to make the event new and more exciting than the previous year.” When asked what the most popular scare is, Chris responded, “That has to be the Vortex. Many guests have a hard time getting through
without becoming incredibly dizzy. And the Moving Hallway is always a big hit.” Chris added that they have a few new ‘things’ this year that are bound to “scare the heck out of people,” but would not elaborate further. amily Hour was introduced 5 years ago and has become a big hit with those who have younger family members or adults who are a bit squeamish. The event runs ‘static’ (without actors, moving displays or special effects running) from 6 PM to 7 PM every night. It is a more subdued experience and allows you to savour all the details of each of the rooms (and they are highly detailed) without being frightened out of your wits. Still a good deal of fun, it is far less scary than the real thing. All tickets for that hour are at Child rates. Potters is open every night from now until Hallowe’en night. Readers are advised to visit the event early as the line-ups grow longer as Hallowe’en approaches. Potters is located at 12530 72nd Ave., midway between King Geo Blvd and Scott Road. The entire event including box office and line-up areas is indoors. For more information please call 604 572 7706 or visit

ing that created a lot of confusion, both with staff and residents. Even though we had posted drills, it was difficult to get the residents to react when the alarms sounded. We realized that we had to change their attitudes and encourage them to take the alarms and evacuation procedures seriously. That’s when we spoke to the Fire Department.”
Jim McGregor
A
s children, the sixty plus generation grew up living in wood frame single family homes primarily heated by wood or coal. Fire Prevention was not taught in the schools it was just common sense. Today many seniors are moving into multi-family residences, town homes or seniors’ facilities. This new living arrangement creates, among other challenges, the situation of living with and relying on other residents. Teaching people how to react to a fire or other emergency requires patience and understanding. Langley Township is fortunate to have dedicated Fire department staff with a passion for bringing the message to the seniors’ community. The Protective Services Division of the fire department is headed by Public Education Officer Captain Gary Proznick and he is assisted by Public Fire and Life Safety Educator Krista Barton. “The Township of Langley is very fortunate to have two full time staff dedicated to Public Fire and Life Safety,” states Captain Proznick. “Many other larger communities have not made that commitment. We are able to get the fire safety message out to all the community, particularly our most vulnerable, the very young and the elderly.”
“We were pleased to get involved with Harrison Pointe,” explains Proznick. “We took this as an opportunity to work on our seniors program.” “We started with an open forum with the residents where we explained the basics of evacuation procedures and the need to take the drills seriously. We encouraged them to get to know their building, the exit routes and the stairwells and where they would end up outside. Most people have a routine of coming in and out of a building one L to R: Krista Barton, Capt.

Fire Department them aware of the procedures they are more willing to listen and practice. We found that once the Fire Department was in and provided the education, the attitudes changed and we had a much greater buy in to the seriousness of the fire drill and evacuation procedures.”
“We evacuated the building and were able to show the residents where they were to gather and we timed the evacuation. One of the goals is toget better each time taking into consideration that this was the very first time for many of the residents.”
“Facilities such as these have some unique challenges,” says Proznick. “There are many residents that rely on walkers, scooters or wheel chairs to get around. We have to educate the users of these devices to move to safe areas and where to wait for assistance. During the drills we have them outside to observe what the others are doing and to show them where the congregation spots will be. It is important that they are all assured that no one will be left behind, we won’t stop until everyone is accounted for”
“After the drill the crew cooked hamburgers for everyone then we had a debrief session with residents and staff to address any of their concerns. This is as important for us as it is for them, every voice is heard.”
“When we did the drill at Harrison Pointe we did it in real time. We pulled the alarms and responded the crew from the fire hall. They were able to see the response time and realize the truck will be there before many of them are out. Assistance will be on hand.”
“Working with the fire department we have produced a pamphlet that is a simple, quick read outlining the procedures. We have used our residents in the photos and that gives them a sense of ownership as well. These procedures
“We have appointed floor wardens and outfitted them with vests,” adds Cindy. “They are now advocates for the program and they take their duties seriously and help to get the word out. Education is empowerment and we use the evacuation drills as just one more reason to keep fit and keep active.”

Award Winning Standards in energy and building materials in order to be the greenest, most energy-efficient seniors’ community in Canada.” The two most important measures incorporated into the building are: • A geo-exchange system that both stores heat and draws heat up from the earth and circulates it through the floors for comfort. There is no forced air. • Passive solar heat panels for domestic hot water that spills any excess heat back into the geo-exchange. Other measures include: • Energy efficient lighting and controls • Increased wall and roof insulation • High efficiency condensing boilers • Heat recovery units in the kitchen and parking garage that extract energy from the ambient air As a result, Sunridge Gardens expects to achieve savings of approximately 1,250tonnes of carbon emissions each year.
Other features are designed with the residents in mind. The building is built with recycled and renewal building materials with 39% of all building materials being manufactured within 800kms of the site. The communications are all state-of– the-art wireless technology and the building utilizes an extensive recycling and composting infrastructure. Jane Bryce, the Marketing Manager for Sunridge Gardens explains the benefits of this technology for the residents. “Our residents enjoy a building full of natural daylight, with large energy efficient windows throughout. All of our carpets, paints and upholstery contain no toxins or curing agents, which can make a big difference to someone living with respiratory issues.”

The No. 5 ranked Trinity Western University men’s soccer team saw their Canada West unbeaten streak come to an end Sunday afternoon as they fell 2-1 to the No. 4 University of Alberta at Foote Field in Edmonton. The loss gives the Spartans their first loss of the season and drops them to 7-1-2 on the season, while the win moves the Golden Bears to 7-1-3 on the season. Trinity Western sits in second in the Pacific division with 23 points and a 7-1-2 record. The Spartans got a late goal from Kenyan native Jarvis Ambaka. Ambaka, has eight points on the season, picked up his fifth conference goal when he beat Alberta goalie Jay Vetsch in injury time to ruin the clean sheet, and make the final 2-1.  Match Notes: TWU had the edge in total shots at 11 to five and corner kicks at five to two. Both teams had three offsides and eight fouls.

Preston brings the smackdown Gary ahuja Times Sports
Nasty. Not exactly the word you would expect to be used when describing a pastor’s son. But that is one of the first things Jeff Alamolhoda says when describing Jeremy Preston. Preston is a linebacker for the Langley Rams junior football team. “He is a different guy on and off the field,” said Alamolhoda, the Rams’ head coach. “Off the field, he is very nice, he is caring, he is softspoken, a happy guy, always smiling.
“On the field, he is nasty and plays with a chip on his shoulder. He is going to smack you and then he is going to let you know he is going to smack you all day. “That is the type of linebacker we like: he makes plays and finishes them.” After hearing a description like that, one might expect to meet an ill-tempered young man, but Preston is quite the opposite. After all, how many other linebackers spend their spring break in a tiny town outside of Mexico City helping build houses and paint them for the less fortunate? That is exactly what Preston
did last spring. “It was a really cool thing to experience, it puts life into perspective for you,” Preston explained. The trip was organized through his church. This was not the first time he had made the trip either, but the other times he went, Preston was much younger. “Just the happiness of the people,” he said about what stood out most to him. “They were just happy for what they do have.” Preston brings that same hard-working attitude to the football field. Preston, who is from Whalley, has played football since
he was five years old and played high school football with the Holy Cross Crusaders. “I love the intensity and I love to hit people,” he said with a smile. Preston came to the Rams on his own and approached the team for a tryout. And Alamolhoda knew quickly he had a player. “The very first time he came out, we knew he was going to make our team,” Alamolhoda said. “He is a high energy guy, a high motor guy who flies around the field. “He never quits and just shows up and works hard.”
Rams host Rebels Oct. 20 Win against the Sun has Langley hosting the Rebels at McLeod The Langley Rams junior football team bowled right through the Okanagan Sun to a 48-6 victory on Saturday in Kelowna. Nick Downey scored a pair of touchdowns, one on an 89 yard kick-off return and the other a 30 yard pass from Greg Bowcott. Bowcott also threw a 27 yard touchdown pass to Malcolm Williams. Daniel Xavier scored on a seven yard run and Jordan Linnen returned the second half kickoff 90 yards for a touchdown as the Rams rolled to a win over the Sun. The Rams now host the Westshore Rebels in the BCFC semi-final next Saturday, Oct. 20 at McLeod Stadium. Kick-off is at 4 p.m.

STRICKER, Glenearl Glenearl “Glen” Stricker, 89, passed away September 27, 2012, after a very brief illness. Born in Vancouver Dec. 24, 1922, he lived on Inverness Street in Vancouver before enlisting in the RCAF 442nd TAF Squadron, serving in the Aleutians before landing with Canadian Forces on D-Day. He continued this life, cherishing peace and questioning authority. He married the beautiful Dorothy E. Brightwell and had two sons, Gordon (New Haven Ct.) and Ken (Mission). They settled in South Vancouver where he had a lifelong career with BC Hydro, retiring to Langley. He will be greatly missed by his sons and their wives and his grandchildren and great-grandchild. As per his wishes there will be no services. He will be interred at Valley View in Surrey. In his honour, please buy a drink for the person beside you.
Jack Breaks passed away on August 8, 2012. He is survived and missed greatly by his three children Jack (Paulette), Glen (Gina) and Shari (Tom) Lyle. Jack had seven grandchildren, Sarah Breaks, Robert Breaks, Daniel Lyle, Michael Lyle, Andrea Baga, Kristina Breaks and Joanna Breaks. Jack is also survived by his brothers Bill Breaks and George Breaks.He is predeceased by the love of his life, his wife of 61 years, Irene (nee Hassell). He is also predeceased by his sisters Florence Longstaff, Evelyn Longstaff and Hannah Taylor. Jack was born in New Westminster B.C. on July 1, 1924 and grew up in the Cloverdale / Hazelmere areas. Jack remembered the economic Depression of the 1930s as a time of great struggle for his family. During this time, the Breaks family focused on agriculture and local small business as a means to survive. Jack served in the Canadian Army during WW2 then returned home to continue work on the family dairy farm in Hazelmere. A small Oliver Cletrack crawler/dozer was purchased to clear part of the farm. This was the beginning of a landclearing and earthmoving business that Jack, Bill and George would operate and grow during the late 1940s, 1950s and1960s until the business was sold in 1965. The brothers were all hard workers and together took on some of the large jobs that were required as our Province developed in those years. More and larger equipment was purchased as bigger jobs were tackled. In the 1950s they did the site preparation for the Empire Stadium, were a Prime Contractor for Bechtel Corporation’s Trans Mountain Pipeline over the Rocky Mountains (Burnaby Mountain Terminal), built the cooling line for BC Hydro’s Burrard Thermal plant and built many roads in the South Surrey/Whiterock area, from which they were based. In the 1960s they built sections of the Deas Island Freeway (#99) and portions of the TransCanada Highway #401 between Vancouver and Hope. One of the last large jobs completed by the brothers was the preparation for the Simon Fraser University site, including clearing, excavating building sites, building roads and playing fields, two years of work in all. In 1979 Jack and his wife Irene moved to a beautiful farm in the South Langley / Aldergrove area where they lived for the rest of their lives.It was on this farm that Jack would enjoy countless days working outdoors, gardening, or in the kitchen enjoying a home cooked meal by Irene. Many days were accompanied by children or grandchildren, as he was a loving and wise father and grandfather. He will be greatly missed.
Eileen ( mother, grandmother, great grandmother and friend) told us a few days before that she was going home to be with God the father in Heaven and on Oct. 9th, she peacefully left us. In 2005 when stricken with Alzheimer’s Mom left her farm in Langley and came to Victoria to be nearer her daughter (Carole Poy) and family. We are all grateful for the precious time we had with her. The family wishes to express our appreciation to all the kind and caring people at Beckley Farm Lodge for such special love and care they gave to Eileen.
