PROPOSAL TO COVER DITCH NEAR ACCIDENT SITE TURNED DOWN, SAYS PROPONENT DA N F E R G US ON Time s Re po rte r

Cops for Cancer riders rolled into Langley on Tuesday, the sixth day of their Tour de Valley fundraiser. They stopped at Shortreed Elementary school in Aldergrove, the RCMP Langley detachment, Cedarbrook Bakery, Deli and Bistro and Coast Capital Savings in Brookswood. This year’s Tour de Valley campaign raised $280,000 for cancer research. Story and more photos on page 11.

A proposed quick fix for the scene of a fatal intersection crash has failed to find support from Langley Township engineering staff. “They gave me a flat no,” said Gary Hee, who proposed covering over the ditch on 72 Avenue near 198B Street with temporary steel plates to provide an immediate, low-cost interim safety solution. He said the plate would allow better separation of pedestrians and traffic until a proper sidewalk is built. Because there is a deep ditch, residents currently have to walk within a metre of oncoming traffic near the intersection. Hee was speaking at the Monday evening (Sept. 29) meeting of Township council. A petition organized by Hee, which demands traffic calming measures at the Langley intersection, has collected more than 175 names since the Sept. 4 collision which claimed the life of an 83-year-old pedestrian hit by a car. Hee said he understands there will be improvements to the intersection next year, but something needs to be done sooner.

No money for new schools, says province LANGLEY DISTRICT LEFT IN DIFFICULT SPOT BY MINISTRY OF EDUCATION BELT TIGHTENING MO N I Q U E TA M M I N G A Ti me s Re po r t e r

The Ministry of Education is sending a message to all school boards in B.C. — there is no money for new schools, so don’t bother asking. News of the government’s new policy didn’t go over well at Tuesday evening’s Langley board of education meeting. “This is very disappointing. We have a real problem in this district with two schools opening over capacity,” said Trustee Megan Dykeman.

“Next year, how are we going to accommodate students in Willoughby?” Secretary-treasurer David Green explained that the ministry sent a letter in July, telling school boards to no longer submit five-year capital funding plans. “Normally, we submit a capital plan every fall. Not any more,” Green said. “Given the significant need for school construction in Willoughby, this change presents a significant challenge.” His sense is the province has spent money on large projects like the Port

Mann Bridge and, soon, the Massey Tunnel, and there isn’t any money left. “The money all comes from the same place,” Green said. As well, the ministry now requires school districts to fund nearly 50 per cent of any new school project — making it nearly impossible for any district. Langley has around $4 million to contribute to a new high school that would cost upwards of $30 million. Building a high school takes up to 48 months, meaning a new school would

not open any earlier than 2018. The district envisions its size would have to be similar to Walnut Grove Secondary. All this bad news from the ministry means some big decisions in Langley, Green emphasized. “The board needs to get into the thought process of disposing of properties. “We have real short term needs and no real solutions.” Continued Page 4

Canada Day in the red FEDERAL GRANT MISSING DAN FERGUSON Times Reporter

DAN FERGUSON Langley Times

Brookswood resident Kate Mumford has grown a 650-pound (an estimate based on its measurements) squash in her back yard. She plans to enter it in the Oct. 11 giant competition at Aldor Acres farm. Mumford told The Times “This is my second year growing giant vegetables in my Brookswood back garden. Last year, I grew a 375 lb. pumpkin which earned me seventh place at the annual Aldor Acres giant pumpkin weigh-off. This year I started a giant pumpkin and a giant squash to see how big they could get. Unfortunately I lost the pumpkin at about 450 lbs. to rot, but the squash is still growing strong. These two plants have taken up much of our back yard on our quarter-acre lot, much to my husband’s surprise.” They have had many visitors come to see the green giant. She says many younger people are becoming interested in growing giant vegetables.

The group that took over Langley Canada Day celebrations this year is $35,000 in the red, mostly because the federal government took away a grant they were counting on to balance their books. The admission was made during a Monday afternoon (Sept. 29) appearance before Township council by Shar Dubas and Bal Sabharwal of the Langley International Festival Society, which took over the duties of the Langley Canada Day Celebrations Society in January of this year. They said a $35,500 Canadian Heritage grant was approved, then withdrawn because the combined Canada Day and multicultural festival was supposed to run three days, not two. “There seems to have been a misunderstanding,” said Dubas, who added the International Festival Society may not be able to continue running Canada Day if funds can’t be found. Because of the unexpected deficit, the organizers are having trouble paying suppliers, Sabharwal said. “Right now, we are in a hole, and we have bills to pay,” Sabharwal said. “We are in dire need.” Councillors expressed sympathy, but said they aren’t willing to consider a bail-out until they get a more detailed look at the group’s books. “That is a lot of money,” Councillor Michelle Sparrow said. “I urge you to give us more information.” Councillors also suggested the organizers approach the City of Langley.

A 2007 Suzuki motorcycle is among the items taken from the parking garage of a condo complex on 66 Avenue during a break-in on Sept. 20.

The underground parking area of a condo complex in the 20200 block of 66 Avenue was broken into on Sept. 20. Multiple storage lockers were opened and numerous items were stolen, including a motorcycle. In the early morning hours, the thieves entered through the main gate by holding it open with a hammer. A variety of items were stolen, including a blue 2007 Suzuki motorcycle that was locked to a fence. The culprits cut the lock and took the bike. Anyone who has seen the bike or knows anything about the break-in is asked to call Langley RCMP at 604-532-3200.

Willoughby slope in schools crisis From Page 1

Developers have been clamouring to buy the Willoughby elementary site, he said. The James Anderson school program has been relocated to Apex school and the building in Willoughby now sits empty. The board and Green agreed that the slope area has hit a crisis point and if there isn’t a fix, students entering middle school will likely have to be bused to another school zone, to Langley Secondary or as far away as Aldergrove. The board also needs to decide on what to do with the aging Langley Secondary. The district doesn’t even have a site for a new high school,

said Green. The new Yorkson Creek Middle School opened for classes on Sept. 22 with 793 students. It will be well over capacity by next year. Every K-5 elementary school in Willoughby will be over capacity in September. R.E. Mountain Secondary has a capacity for 725 students but currently has a population of 1,125. There are 16 portables on the school grounds. In order to house an additional 400 to 500 students in the next 10 years, another 13 to 16 portables would be required. The physical site cannot accommodate that many portables, said Green. The hope was to turn it into a middle school once a new high

school opened. Trustee Rob McFarlane called on families to speak up and let the province know that they have to come up with money for a school “because the kids are already in Willoughby” and there is nowhere for them to go. In the end, trustees voted unanimously to send the fiveyear capital plan to the ministry, as a reminder of this district’s needs. “Even if it is just recycled,” said Dykeman. As well, the district will be meeting with parent groups in Willoughby to find out how best to go to the public about making some hard decisions about school sites and busing kids out of their home neighbourhoods.

TWU president goes coast to coast for Parkinson’s Trinity Western University President Bob Kuhn will be swapping his suit and tie for a leather jacket and motorcycle helmet on Oct. 7, when he embarks on a coast-to-coast motorcycle ride for Parkinson’s research. Kuhn has completed several long distance rides for the cause since he was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease in January 2006. “I want to share my adventure with others who have Parkinson’s, and in doing so encourage them to have their own adventures, be daring and stretch outside their comfort zone,” Kuhn said. “It’s important to show people with

Parkinson’s that they can accomplish extraordinary things, despite this disease.” From Oct. 7 to 9, Kuhn, along with fellow motorcyclist Andrew Westlund, will make the roughly 2,400 mile, 50-hour, coast-to-coast trip, beginning in San Diego, California and ending in Jacksonville, Florida. Kuhn also speaks regularly on the subject and has a blog, Positively Parkinson’s. To follow Kuhn’s adventure, or to make a donation to the Michael J. Fox Foundation visit Kuhn’s Team Fox fundraising page, or the C2C for the Cure Facebook page.

Township and province at odds over fire safety COUNCIL CONCERNED THAT PLANS FOR B.C.-WIDE BUILDING CODE WOULD OVERRIDE LANGLEY SPRINKLER REGULATIONS DAN FER GUSON Tim es Reporter

A Langley Township rule that requires sprinklers in multi-family and non-residential buildings could be eliminated by the provincial government in the name of creating a single, unified building code for all of B.C. The provincial government is planning to change the law to require all B.C. communities to give it sole control over construction safety standards, something that could mean the end of the Langley sprinkler requirements. The warning is contained in a report to Township council by fire department assistant chief Pat Walker. The Walker report said that once Langley and other local governments lose their power to set their own standards, they “would thus be expected to eliminate all technical building requirements … that provide additional life safety requirements that are inconsistent with the current B.C. Building Code. The sprinkler requirement, which exceeds the minimum, would have to go, Walker predicted. “… the Township would lose its ability to meet the unique fire protection needs and the future development potential of our municipality,” Walker said. He went on to cite statistics

DAN FE R GUS ON Langley Time s

Charlie Fox said provincial government plans that could override Langley Township fire safety regulations were “concerning.” showing the amount of fire damage in buildings with sprinklers averages $22,642.40, less than a third of the average for building without automatic water systems, $75,263.23 per fire. “Sprinklers represent a choice between a little cost and a little water when a fire starts, or a large cost and a lot of water when firefighters arrive,” Walker wrote. “A local approach allows for a response to issues that may not be a current or future provincial priority,” Walker added. He said there have been no

complaints from the construction industry about the sprinkler requirement. On Monday (Sept. 15), Township council unanimously voted to lobby the provincial government, through the Union of B.C. municipalities and a letter to local MLA Rich Coleman, to loosen the proposed new policy to allow communities to have better-than-minimum building safety requirements (councillor Grant Ward was absent). “It’s imperative that we have autonomy [to set safety regulations],” said Councillor Charlie Fox, who called the provincial move “concerning.” The report to council says several other B.C. communities face the same problem as Langley because they also have sprinkler requirements, including Pitt Meadows, Maple Ridge, West Vancouver, White Rock and Quesnel. While smoke detectors are considered a cost-effective alternative to sprinklers by agencies like the Canadian Mortgage and Housing Corporation, a Township fire department survey shows more than half the time they aren’t used or don’t work. During the most recent fiveyear period in the Township, fire department figures show that, in 33 per cent of reported fires, there were no smoke alarms while in another 25 per cent, the smoke alarms had failed.

Parliament’s duty

Published Tuesday and Thursday at 20258 Fraser Highway, Langley, B.C., V3A 4E6 by Black Press Ltd. Sales agreement No. 3298280. Contents copyright of Black Press.

The House of Commons must be the venue where Canadian involvement in the battle against ISIS, which has taken control of vast areas of Syria and Iraq, is debated. Prime Minister Stephen Harper promised that military involvements involving combat would be subject to a Commons vote when he put Canada’s further involvement in Afghanistan to a vote in 2007. Foreign Affairs Minister John Baird has now committed that any expansion of Canada’s military involvement in combating ISIS will also come to the House. A careful study of Canada’s history shows that Parliament is the very best place to make final decisions on military missions. One hundred years ago, Canada was automatically at war when Great Britain decided to declare war on Germany. This country was in for the long haul, and more than 66,000 soldiers lost their lives in what is widely seen as one of history’s most futile and destructive wars. In contrast, the decision to enter the Second World War was made by Parliament. While that commitment ended up being even more total than in the First World War, it was managed in a far better way, and the cause was one that was worth fighting for. The same can be said for combat against ISIS. The organization has no redeeming principles or values, and indeed its followers are slaughtering many Muslims, as well as adherents of other faiths, for no reason. Canada was right not to go to war against Iraq in 2003, but this is a very different matter. Nonetheless, the final decision needs to be made by MPs — not by the cabinet.

Question langeytimes.com

Little love or joy

of the week

Do you think it is likely that any LNG plants will eventually be built in B.C.?

Answer online at www.langleytimes.com

The two local mayors and councillors didn’t get much in the way of joy or love from the provincial government last week during the Union of B.C. Municipalities annual confer-

ence. A resolution was passed unanimously by UBCM delegates asking the government to rescind recent BC Ferries fare hikes and service cuts. Minutes after the resolution passed, Transportation Minister Todd Stone, a Kamloops MLA it should be noted, kiboshed the idea. “That’s not going to happen,” he told our reporter. We thought the resolution didn’t go far enough. The UBCM was asking for a rollback in fares to 2013 rates. They were too high then, as well. The motion put forward by UBCM delegates came on the heels of a report suggesting B.C. has missed out on more than $2 billion in economic activity over the past decade because of rising fares. Stone labelled the report “irresponsible” and “unsubstantiated.” When he wasn’t keeping the socialist hordes away from the gates of British Columbia, Premier W.A.C. Bennett essentially created BC Ferries in the late 1950s. A strike by employees of the private Black Ball Line was the impetus for Bennett’s plan to create a government-owned ferry service. Bennett saw it as an extension of the highway system. Say that now and watch both federal and provincial politicians run for the hills. Back at the UBCM last week, delegates passed an emergency motion related to the sharing of tax revenue by the province. This is mostly about infrastructure upgrades and the increasing difficulty municipalities (think Parksville and its water treatment plant) have funding projects. The emergency motion was thought to be required because Saanich Mayor Frank Leonard says the provincial government has ignored, for 12 months, a report detailing a partnership proposal between the province and municipalities. No word, no love, from the province on this one, either. Premier Christy Clark didn’t bring any either when she addressed the UBCM on Friday. Makes one wonder just how seriously the provincial government takes the UBCM. — Parksville-Qualicum Beach News

Provincial awards for preserving heritage Editor: It was with pleasure that we attended the B.C. Heritage Society Awards banquet and gala last weekend. It was so rewarding to witness Langley heritage supporters receiving special recognition. Harold Whittell accepted an award for the Society of Fort Langley Residents for Sustainable Development. This was for recognition of advocacy, awareness and

planning. Ted and Lynda Lightfoot and the Langley Heritage Society accepted an award for outstanding achievement in heritage preservation. These awards represent a great deal of work and effort by people, with integrity, in an attempt to save the historic elements and atmosphere of our national and provincial treasure, the “Birthplace of British

Columbia” and to preserve the heritage areas of Langley. These places are unique and to keep them viable surely we must preserve this unique quality. The value of heritage and history appears somewhat underrated and unless people are made aware of the benefits to tourism, education and of course, recreation, it will be lost forever.

Therefore, we congratulate Heritage BC for recognizing the work of our citizens for preserving heritage buildings and ideals. We are proud of the Langley recipients of these prestigious awards, who demonstrate the values of heritage preservation. BAYS AND BOB BLACKHALL, LANGLEY

An exceptional ballerina is teaching among us Editor: Our extraordinary city of Langley has another exceptional addition along the Bypass. Irina Lavrova, Prima Ballerina for 18 years in the great Odessa Opera and Ballet Theatre of the Ukraine, has located here. Lavrova Classical Ballet Academy has been located on the border of Langley and Surrey for many years. Now Langley can call this esteemed ballet mistress our own — a jewel in our

crown. We should be very proud to have this level of artistry within our borders. This studio has changed its name to “Lavrova Dance Complex,” showcasing the many other areas of dance taught there. Jazz, lyrical, contemporary, hip hop, musical theatre, acro and tap are all offered to the growing body of dancers. The other talented instructors of these disciplines have a wealth of experience and knowledge to bring to their stu-

dents. Lavrova Dance is a well-rounded studio that encompasses all the needs of a developing dancer. Irina Lavrova offers world-class ballet instruction. Lavrova Dance completes that circle of dance with its many other offerings. My daughter has danced under Ms. Irina for nine years. With every passing year, we are more thrilled and proud to call Lavrova Dance our studio of choice. Serious instruction, coupled with a sense of fun and

Salmon concerns have lasted a long time Editor: Re: “Returning salmon need some help,” (The Times, Sept 23). Along with pollution, my late father, who commercially fished for salmon for about a half century, was particularly concerned about the negative repercussions of fish farming and over-warming of waters on wild salmon stocks — a situation experienced in the Fraser River during the last two summers. Government fisheries officials and scientists — at least the ones that haven’t yet been fired by Ottawa due to their vocal concerns over industrial contaminant and other damage humankind is doing to fish-run waters — are currently implying, if not outright claiming, that the warming of the Fraser River is not such a big deal after all.

I wonder how they’ll excuse themselves if they turn out to be blatantly wrong during some disastrous future salmon run. I can picture my dad whirling in his urn if he could still observe what our governments are allowing — and much more frightening, going to allow. They are allowing various industrial interests to cause serious damage, perhaps irrevocably, to our precious salmon habitat, apparently to a degree beyond what my father likely ever thought possible. So many early mornings, I’d briefly get up for a washroom break and see the light breaking through underneath his bedroom door and into the hallway’s darkness. My father was on the other side, very slowly typing missives to various politicians. I

must’ve proof read and made many grammar corrections several hundred letters of his over the years, just on this topic alone. I would assure him that the politicians do not have or will not give their time to personally respond to each concerned writer; that they almost certainly had hired staff to read the missives and use an ‘issue-template’ letter return system, with a specific template ready to respond to every potential issue. All they’d likely do is type in the letter writer’s name and address and print it out to mail back. Nonetheless, my father typed on about what were to him the greatest fish habitat concerns of the day. FRANK STERLE JR., WHITE ROCK

Is anyone paying attention to honeybees? Editor: Can anybody tell me why our members of government, who are voted in to take care of everybody’s best interests, cannot see the most basic changes to our environment? I refer to the obvious loss of honeybees. Does anybody know just what will happen if there are

no more honeybees? Does anybody care? I urge all your readers to look up what neonicotinoids are doing to you. If you don’t believe me ... good luck. DAVE COOMER, LANGLEY

positivity, is what makes this studio our home, and indeed, family. Lavrova Dance is an exquisite place of artistry and learning.

2014/2015 Season Presenting Sponsor:

Kristine Ketter has announced her intention to seek one of the five trustee seats in Langley Township on the Langley Board of Education. She has spent the past eight years observing the board’s activities in detail and feels that, with the knowledge she has gained, she would be a valuable addition to the board. A wife and mother of two children, both of whom currently attend district schools in the Walnut Grove area, she and her family have resided in Langley since 2006. Previously they lived in Victoria and Kelowna. Prior to staying home to support her children, she worked as a sign language interpreter for the deaf in the Central Okanagan School District for eight years. The experience of working with children with special needs in a classroom

setting gave her insight into their unique needs, and how to help students stay engaged in their class activities and with their peers. As she no longer works outside the home, she said that, if elected, she will have the capability to dedicate her time to getting inside schools, speaking with students, parents, teachers, and support staff to find out what works, KR ISTINE what doesn’t, and how things can be changed for the better. “I have been involved with B.C.’s education system in a variety of capacities for nearly 20 years now. I remain committed to improving the education system for all children. “We are on the edge of a paradigm shift

in how students are being taught. I would like to be a part of bringing all stakeholders together to understand what these changes are and how they will affect our children’s future for the better.” Ketter is the current president of Langley District Parent Advisory Council (DPAC). However, in accordance with DPAC policy, she is taking a KETTER leave of absence during this campaign period. She is also the chair of Langley Parents as Partners in Learning. She welcomes comments from about education issues. She can be contacted at KristineKetter@shaw.ca. Her campaign website is www.KristineKetter. com.

Dornan seeks re-election to Township council Bev Dornan is seeking her third term on Langley Township council. “I feel very privileged to have served this community for the past six years,” she said. Dornan is a longtime Township resident, having grown up in the rural Aldergrove area. She lived in Murrayville for 24 years and recently moved to Fort Langley. A graduate of Simon Fraser Uni-

versity, she is the general merchandise manager of Otter Co-op. She has been very active in the community. She is president-elect of the Aldergrove Rotary club, has chaired the Langley Relay for Life this past year and is a charter member of the BPW Women’s Group of Langley. She is a past president of Greater Langley Chamber of Commerce, board member of B. C. Chamber of Commerce

and the Langley Hospital Foundation. In her two terms on council, she has served as co-chair of the economic development committee, Tourism Langley representative, alternate for the agricultural advisory committee and for the Fraser Valley Regional Library board. She pointed to many accomplishments and challenges in the past six years. Continued, Page 12

Today’s topic is: Acquisitions

Q: I’d like to grow my company by acquiring another one. Where do I start? A: Acquiring another company can be extremely profitable, and strategically beneficial. At the same time, acquisitions must be approached with caution. Finding the right company can be a long process, with a lot of kissing frogs to get to the prince. Before making an acquisition, it’s important to be realistic about where you are as a company. Ask yourself: do I have the management strength and adequate financing in my core business to make an acquisition? What can I afford to buy? For example, if you are a company with ten million dollars in revenue, $1.5 million in earnings and a very thin management team, it’s probably going to be very difficult for you to buy a company valued at thirty million dollars. You don’t want to waste your energy and resources chasing something that is out of your reach. Secondly, you need to think strategically and analyze why it is you want to make an acquisition. Are you trying to buy growth? Are you buying technologies, services or an expanded workforce? Are you buying market share? Thirdly, you have to think about fit. If you plan on merging your acquisition with your core business, you need to think about whether you are able to undertake that merger properly and what the realistic synergies are going to be. Is this acquisition the right fit from a cultural and sales channel perspective?

An advisor can help you walk through those strategic questions, and identify targets that will benefit your core business. This part of the process can take some time – you may have to look at a number of targets before you find something that truly meets your goals. On the other hand, if you’ve already found a logical, strategic acquisition and had early discussions, an advisor can help you work out the logistics and make the deal happen. Unfortunately, many acquisitions do not end up producing additional value for shareholders and a lot of that has to do with failing to think through some of the issues we’ve outlined here. Also, some business owners are so tired after the long acquisition process and feel that they need to get back to their regular business as soon as the deal is inked. As a result, they may fail to pay adequate attention to important implementation issues, which are critical to the success of an acquisition. Buying another company can seem like an attractive way to grow. By asking the right questions before you start searching, you can ensure that you’re making the right move for your business. For more information, please contact our Langley Office at (604)455-4000 for an initial no charge consultation. Don Matthew and Kevin Mickelby, KPMG Partners

Cops for Cancer Tour de Valley rode into Langley Tuesday, on Day 6 of their journey. Their first stop of the day was at Shortreed Elementary in Aldergrove which is a memorial stop for the riders. Junior tour member Christopher Sperger attended Shortreed when he was diagnosed with cancer. He died of the disease. His mom Teresa has been meeting the riders each year at the school. The second stop for the 22 riders was the Langley RCMP detachment where the crew was greeted by fellowofficers. The next stops were at Cedarbrook Bakery and Deli and Coast Capital Savings. Local riders are Langley RCMP Const. Aaron Kehler and Jason Ryan as well as Commercial Vehicle Section Enforcement officer Randy Fullerton. Langley RCMP Const. Craig van Herk is once again in charge of organizing the tour. Tour de Valley, one of four B.C. tours, is made up of 22 riders and 21 support crew. The group will pedal more than 800 km in just nine days from Sept. 25 to Oct. 3. The riders don’t spend any money on accommodations, with the focus of all the money raised going directly to the kids. Since 1997, Cops for Cancer in BC has raised more than $32 million allowing the Society to directly fund childhood cancer research and support programs.

Saturday is the annual Heritage Apple Day, which allows visitors to take a bite out of Fort Langley history. The free family event allows participants to learn all about apples, and take a walk through time. It takes place from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the heritage area in Derby Reach Regional Park. Visitors will be able to sample and taste the difference in varieties of heritage apples you won’t find in any supermarket. They can take a tour and learn about how the original heritage

orchard was saved by local volunteers. There will also be a glimpse of the future at the new “floating” orchard near the Houston House, where volunteers are growing new trees from cuttings of the heritage ones. Kids will be able to enjoy interactive games like “Experience the Fraser” and “Experience the Farm.” There will also be historical tours, and historical re-enactors Black Powder and the Royal Engineers will show the sights and (loud mus-

ket) sounds of a century past. The Langley Community School Fiddlers will be performing. It would not be Apple Day without the wisdom and wares of local apple growers — Derry Walsh, Laurelle Oldford-Down, Sheila and Dave Ormrod, and Jim and Mary Anne Rahe will be giving advice on planting and caring for fruit trees, and selling a variety of heritage apple trees. This free event is organized by the Derby Reach/Brae Island Park Association.

Stepping Stone celebrates 30 years of service today MONIQUE TAMMINGA Times Reporter

Today, (Oct. 2), Stepping Stone celebrates 30 years of providing services to people with mental illness in Langley. Stepping Stone had small beginnings. It opened in 1984, primarily for adults living with a mental illness, who worked at a recycling depot. Many of the clients at that time lived in two large homes in Langley and the people who lived independently were living in poverty. “Their quality of life was very impoverished and maybe worst of all was the absolute loneliness of the men and women who attended the sheltered workshop (the recycling depot),” said Janet Burden, executive director of Stepping Stone. “The work was dirty, there was no challenge, the rewards were little and there was nowhere to move on to. “However, even in those bleak surroundings we provided a place for people to meet, to have coffee and to visit with other people dealing with similar issues.” In September 1987, Stepping Stone’s executive director attended a conference confirming that there was a better way of providing services for people with mental illness — namely a

clubhouse model where people were welcome every day to take part in programs, lunches and other services. But the question was how to make it happen. Provincial Mental Health Services provided some funding for the model but Stepping Stone had to fundraise. And fundraise, it did. On Oct. 1, 1988 the recycling depot closed and Stepping Stone moved into a new location, with a one year lease from the City of Langley. The house was attractive, the environment warm and more and more members began to attend. In 1990, they created a sister society West Fraser Housing and opened Arbour Creek estates. This provided affordable, dignified and supported housing in the community for families as well as individuals living with a mental illness. Between 1992 and 1994, almost $1 million was raised during a capital fundraising campaign- “A House of Hope in a Community That Cares”. The result was the Stepping Stone Clubhouse — a 6,000 sq. ft. facility designed to provide psychosocial rehab programs. In 2006, services expanded to include a homeless outreach program which provides services for people who are home-

less or at risk of homelessness. They also expanded housing options. Currently, Stepping Stone serves more than 1,000 people in all of its programs. “There have been many changes in peoples’ attitudes towards people living with mental illness and also changes in the way we view our services,” said Burden. “Thirty years ago we didn’t talk about recovery, now we do. We believe that people can achieve their potential and lead full productive lives.” Members have called the clubhouse their ‘lifeline.’ “It is important to get out of the house. It is a place to talk to others, help solve problems and get steered in the right direction. It is an important part of my life,” said Walter, who attends Stepping Stone. “It means friendship. It is my salvation,” Ina-Jean said of her experience. Jane has been coming to Stepping Stone since 1988. “Stepping Stone is a place to go and to socialize. This how I found low-income housing,” she said. The open house is from 3 to 6 p.m. at Stepping Stone, 20101 Michaud Cres. on Thursday, Oct. 2 . Members will showcase their talents with a display of art work, crafts and music.

Eight baby Douglas squirrels – so young, their eyes were still closed – fell out of a nest in Cloverdale a few weeks ago. Fortunately, they landed safely at Critter Care. The critters were orphaned when their mom was killed in a construction accident on Aug. 18. Right away, the “dougies” were brought in to Critter Care Wildlife Society in South Langley. The wildlife rescue organiza-

tion is asking people to support them by taking part in the 6th annual walk-a-thon fundraiser is Sunday, Oct. 5 at Campbell Valley Regional Park. Registration starts at 10:30 a.m., and the walk begins at 11:30 a.m. Critter Care, located at 481 216 Street, is an animal rescue and rehabilitation facility that’s run on donations and staffed by volunteers and interns from all over the world. Sick, injured and orphaned native B.C. mammals are cared for, and returned to the wild.

The society’s volunteers and interns are eager to gain handson experience working with bear cubs, river otters, raccoons and more. For the walk, participants are asked to put on their wildest walking gear and bring family, friends and four-legged companions for a walk in the park, striking out on either a 2 km or 4 km route. (Meet at the south entrance, off 8 Avenue.) Visit www.crittercarewildlife. org/walkathon, or call 604-5302054 to register.

Home, sweet home for Langley Ukes BR ENDA ANDER SON Tim es Reporter

Members of the Langley Ukulele Ensemble ought to feel right at home when they perform this weekend Following a whirlwind year spent traveling from from Kelowna to Victoria, Whistler and Hawaii to Seattle, the renowned ukulele ensemble is preparing to kick off the fall concert season with a performance at Langley Free Evangelical Church this Saturday, Oct. 4. The young musicians have been kept hopping by their new director, Paul Luongo, since he took over duties from his father, Peter, one year ago. During that time, the A and B ensembles have together performed no fewer than 50 shows. “It has been extremely busy, but the ensemble has successfully made it through the transition year between directors and the association is excited to be on the rise with the evolution of the ensemble gradually taking place,” said Luongo. Among the opportunities the LUE has had to step onto a stage in the past 12 months have been at Italian Day celebrations, the Hats off day

Parade in Burnaby, Whistler’s Under the Stars arts festival, the BC Seniors Games and in Hawaii where, for the 19th year out of 20, the ensemble was welcomed back to its home away from home at the Sheraton, Waikiki. This Saturday, however, it’s all about showing some hometown pride, as the Langley Ukulele Association presents the Langley Ukulele Ensemble live in concert, featuring ukulele virtuoso and LUE alumnus James Hill, performing alongside his wife, Anne Janelle. “It will be a show of musical variety, energy, entertainment, and a fun, family-friendly, evening out in Langley,” promised Luongo. The Langley Ukulele Ensemble are preparing to tour Reno, Nevada as headline entertainers at a ukulele festival at the Golden Nugget. Additionally, the ensemble will also be headlining performances at the Stratford Music Festival in early August, as well as at the Canadian National Exhibition this August in Toronto. This Saturday, doors open at the Langley Evangelical Free Church, 20719 48 Ave., at 6:30 p.m. Showtime is 7 p.m. For tickets call 604-340-8537.

Appia’s SOLO District rises among the clouds in Burnaby By Kerry Vital

Appia Developments’ SOLO District is heading into fall and continuing construction on the first tower, Stratus, and Burnaby’s first Whole Foods. The second tower, Altus, has recently begun sales and will soon rise as the tallest tower in Burnaby. When it’s complete, SOLO District will comprise four beautiful residential towers with over 1,400 homes and tons of

retail and other commercial space. “People are embracing the community concept,” says Lisa Murrell, sales and marketing manager for Appia. “Everything about SOLO District is about quality, from the retailers to the suites themselves.” In addition to Whole Foods, SOLO District will welcome Shoppers Drug Mart, a Signature BC Liquor Store, Uncle Fatih’s pizza, Stripped wax bar, and Ricky’s All-Day-Grill. Dr. Danial Deheshi and his staff will be moving to SOLO

NEW HOME DEVELOPMENT

District Dental next year, and an outlet of the B.C. Automobile Association will also call SOLO District home. SOLO District, which stands for South of Lougheed, is a complete community with a balanced mix of office, retail and green space, as well as gorgeous homes. The towers will soon become an iconic part of the Burnaby skyline. Altus will be the equivalent of 55 storeys tall, with homes starting from 200 feet up and office space below. Altus will also house Club 55, an enormous amenity space with a barbecue area, full kitchen, media area, billiards and ping-pong tables and generous outdoor deck space. All of this will be located on the top floor of the tower. A quieter retreat will be located on the roof deck of the 15th floor. The office tower will include a gym that residents have access to as well, and a unique outdoor multi-sport court on the third floor. SOLO District is perfectly situated for transit, shopping, education and leisure activities. Homes at SOLO District start in the low-$300,000s. For more information, visit www.solodistrict.com, call 604-2988800 or visit the presentation centre at 2131 Willingdon Avenue, open daily except Friday between noon and 5 p.m.

Burnaby’s Brentwood neighbourhood is becoming one of the top places to live in the Lower Mainland. Developers such as Bosa Developments, Appia Developments, Shape Properties and Concord Pacific are all building in the area.

Playing and living in Brentwood By Kerry Vital

Burnaby’s Brentwood neighbourhood is a rapidly growing region, with plenty of opportunities for shopping, dining, education and recreation, from golf courses to rowing to swimming. With new homes popping up every year, the area is an exciting place to live and is becoming a major urban centre. Brentwood is about 20 minutes from downtown Vancouver via SkyTrain, and about 30 minutes from the Vancouver International Airport. This contributes to the popularity of the neighbourhood with

young professionals who commute to work. Among the developers who are building in the neighbourhood are Appia Developments, Ledingham McAllister, Concord Pacific, Bosa Development, Shape Properties and Embassy Developments. Brentwood is full of opportunities for education, from preschool to post-secondary. The largest institution is Simon Fraser University, just a few minutes from the centre of Brentwood on Burnaby Mountain. Rated as one of Canada’s top three comprehensive universities for almost 20 years running, SFU is home to approximately 32,000 students and about 2,500 faculty and staff. The British Columbia Institute of Technology also has its main campus in Burnaby. Established in 1964, it was the first permanent trade school of its kind in B.C., and includes courses in business, information technology and engineering, among other disciplines.

It is hard to be bored in Brentwood, with its selection of parks, art galleries, museums and theatres, among other activities. If it’s a bit of culture you’re looking for, you can start up on Burnaby Mountain at the Simon Fraser University Art Gallery. It’s open to the public free of charge and the displays change every few months. SFU also houses the Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology, which showcases artifacts from around the world, with a focus on British Columbia. There are several parks in Burnaby, so outdoor activity is never far away. Burnaby Lake Regional Nature Park includes a dog off-leash area, the Burnaby Sports Complex, the Burnaby Equestrian Centre and several walking and cycling trails. The lake itself has a rowing course for canoeing, kayaking and rowing training. Confederation Park is also an activity hub, with walking trails, a skate park, a lacrosse

box, a running track, a community centre, several picnic sites and playgrounds, baseball diamonds and other playing fields. It’s also home to the McGill branch of the Burnaby Public Library and the Eileen Dailly Leisure Pool and Fitness Centre. Brentwood is a well-connected neighbourhood, with several options for public transportation, walking or cycling if you feel like leaving your car behind. Because it’s nearly the centre of Metro Vancouver, it is easy to get on your way, whatever way you choose. Among the transit possibilities are SkyTrain and several bus routes. Your first stop for some retail therapy is Brentwood Town Centre, located in the centre of Brentwood and well-served by transit, including its own SkyTrain station. With a variety of shops, you’ll be able to do much of your browsing in one spot. Brentwood is a cook’s dream, with stores such as Bosa Foods, famous for amazing Italian imports, and Cioffi’s Meat Market and Deli. Grocery stores such as Safeway and Save-On Foods are also in the area.

25% OFF Chelated Zinc OFFER EXPIRES OCTOBER 31, 2014

Daily

Dose

Brace yourselves - the cold & flu season is coming! Zinc is an important player in immune function - even a slight deficiency can weaken the immune system. People at risk of zinc inadequacy include vegetarians, pregnant women, and those with gastrointestinal diseases, including chronic diarrhea. The body does not store excess zinc, so daily supplementation is a good idea for everyone. Other conditions which have been treated with zinc supplementation include wound healing, acne, and sense of taste and smell. Start ramping up your immune defense now and avoid spending your weekend at the walk-in clinic!

Online Survey: Help Reduce Litter and Illegal Dumping Over the years, the Township of Langley has received more and more requests to respond to litter and illegal dumping – and the trend is rising. Our community is growing, we are creating more waste, and yet we all know we need to reduce the amount of garbage we are throwing in the landfill. That is why the Township of Langley is working on an anti-litter and illegal dumping strategy – and we need your feedback. Please take five minutes of your time to complete a short survey on tol.ca/environment. Your input matters to us. For more information, contact: Engineering Division 604.532.7300 opsinfo@tol.ca

Draining Your Above-Ground Swimming Pool? Residents with above-ground swimming pools who drain their pools annually at this time of year are reminded to: 1. de-chlorinate the pool water prior to draining the pool 2. drain the water onto your grass/lawn No one should drain pool water into a ditch or storm drain. This causes many risks to our natural resources and our ground water. We all play an important role in protecting our environment. De-chlorination tablets are available for purchase at local hardware and pool supply stores. Follow the instructions provided with the tablets.

Second straight year City nets business award AWARD RECOGNIZES COMMITMENT TO SUPPORTING GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT OF LOCAL SMALL BUSINESS COMMUNITY The City of Langley has been awarded a B.C. Small Business Roundtable Open for Business Award. The municipality received the accolade last week at the Union of British Columbia Municipalities (UBCM) annual convention in Whistler. Offered by the province of British Columbia, the Open for Business Awards recognize local policies, projects and programs that support small business. This is the second year in a row the City has been recognized with a win for its commitment to sup-

porting the growth and development of its local small business community. “The City of Langley values the important contribution small business plays in the development, growth and success of our city,” said City of Langley Acting Mayor Ted Schaffer. “We are thrilled to be recognized for our commitment to establishing supportive government policies, programs and services, and are especially grateful to the Greater Langley Chamber of Commerce and Downtown Langley Business Association for

the excellent work they do in promoting and improving local trade and commerce.” This year, the roundtable — which provides awards of $10,000 to each winning community to support the implementation of measures that benefit small business — received submissions from all eight economic regions and short-listed 13 community finalists. Award evaluations were based on local measures that make it easier to do business in that community, including enhancing small business competitiveness,

recognizing the contributions of small businesses to the community, and promoting the principles of the B.C. Small Business Accord. “I’d like to congratulate the City of Langley for its well-deserved win,” said Langley MLA Mary Polak. “This award recognizes the great work undertaken by the City to support the small business sector, attract visitors and investment, and grow our local economy.” In addition to offering competitive taxation levels and a stream-

lined approval process, the City of Langley has developed a number of strategies and initiatives to maximize economic development in downtown Langley. These include the introduction of a Downtown Business Action Plan combined with an ‘Urban Magnets’ workshop and SWOT analysis, a community survey, and the placement of way-finding signage throughout the downtown core. “We thank the B.C. Small Business Roundtable for this prestigious award and look forward to continuing to work with our community partners to find innovative ways to support our local business community,” said Schaffer.

First West Credit Union merging with Island Savings A vote will be held next month to determine the potential merger between Island Savings and First West Credit Union. First West Credit Union, which has its head office in Langley, consists of Envision Financial, Valley First and Enderby & District Financial. “First West is inspired by one of our six big ideals — act local — because we have unique communities across British Columbia that deserve a local focus when it comes to their banking needs,” said First West CEO Launi Skinner. “The Valley First team ... are all dedicated to making a meaningful difference in the financial lives of their members and the prosperity of their communities.”

“Our boards found there was very compelling member and community value in our two organizations coming together,” said First West board chair Shawn Neumann. “Because of the nature of the arrangement, Island Savings members are required to vote. However, we will be holding information meetings for First West members too to provide more information on the value proposition and hear their feedback. We’re committed to acting locally and listening, so we’re looking forward to hearing and learning from our members.” Should the merger go through, Island Savings would retain its name, local leadership, local decision-making and community focus.

They have also said there would be no layoffs as the result of the merger. “This is great news for Island Savings and for the 70,000 members who do business with us,” said Island Savings CEO Rod Dewar. “With First West, we can offer Island families and businesses some of the most competitive products in the marketplace— without having to give up the local decision-making, local name and local community investment Islanders count on from us.” Island Savings members will vote either by mail-in ballot or in person at any branch between Nov. 5 and Nov. 12 with the results announced on Nov. 14.

Captain Kilistoff ready to lead Rivermen

GARY AH U J A Ti m e s Spo r ts

When Kevan Kilistoff skates onto the ice at the Langley Events Centre on Saturday night for the Langley Rivermen home opener, he will be fulfilling a childhood dream. “I grew up watching the (Langley) Hornets, watching the (Langley) Chiefs play,” he explained. “It is probably every kid’s dream growing up to be captain of their hometown team.” This past off-season, Kilistoff was tabbed to captain the Rivermen. “Being captain is a big honour, especially because I am from Langley,” he said. Head coach and general manager Bobby Henderson said it wasn’t a tough decision to tab the 19-yearold as the next captain of the junior A hockey club. “(Kevan) does everything right every day,” Henderson explained. “You don’t have to worry about him on the ice or off the ice, you know he is going to put his best effort in every day.” It also helps that Kilistoff is respected by his teammates and an ambassador for the team in the community. “He just seemed like a natural,” Henderson added. Kilistoff has been skating since he was two years old and played all through the ranks of the Langley Minor Hockey Association. He spent a year playing in the B.C. Major Midget Hockey League with the Valley West Hawks — a league which was fantastic for his development, he said — before joining the Richmond Sockeyes at the junior B level when he turned 16. He responded by scoring a rookie-best 26 goals and was fifth in the league with 57 points in 44 games. A move to junior A and the BCHL with the Surrey Eagles saw Kilistoff post modest numbers — seven goals and 17 points in 52 games — but gain valuable experience as the Eagles won the Fred Page Cup as league champions, won the Western Canadian Cup and then advance to the semifinals of the Royal Bank Cup, Canada’s junior A national championship. “It adds a lot of experience, just going through a huge playoff run

like that and getting a lot of games under your belt,” Kilistoff said. That summer, he was dealt to the Rivermen to complete a prior trade between the two Mainland Division rivals. While some players may be reluctant to play their junior hockey at home — missing out on the whole billeting experience and being away from home — Kilistoff is OK with it. “I like it better; it is tough sometimes going to unfamiliar places,” he said. “It can be hard to adapt. I get an advantage (being at home).” Henderson said they knew Kilistoff had plenty of upside after his rookie season in Surrey. “When he was with Surrey, he was more of a defensive specialist there,” Henderson said. “He was one of their top penalty killers in the league, and combine that with his offensive history the previous season and I thought he was a guy who could develop into a top player in the league.” Last season, his first in Langley, Kilistoff posted modest numbers with 10 goals and 29 points in 56 games. But this was despite playing in the bottom-six forwards. “I think last year, coming into a new organization, it took him a little bit to get comfortable,” Henderson said. “When we had some injuries, it gave him an opportunity to play in some more offensive situations and he made the most of the opportunities he got. “Towards the end of the year, he was arguably our best player in the playoffs.” Henderson is expecting big things from Kilistoff. “He has jumped right in from where he left off last year and had really worked on his game,” he said. “He is strong as an ox; he put in the work and you can see it.” All through minor hockey and then major midget and junior B, Kilistoff was a goal scorer. But while making plays in the offensive end can be fun, Kilistoff concerns himself more with his play in the defensive zone. “I pride myself on not getting scored on,” he said. And as for his leadership style, Kilistoff says he not the most vocal

Gulka scores twice in win

G A RY A HUJ A Langley Time s file pho to

Langley Rivermen’s Kevan Kilistoff staples a Coquitlam Express player into the boards during last spring’s Mainland Division finals. The 19-year-old Kilistoff is captaining his hometown team this junior hockey season. of leaders, but instead lets his play do the talking. “I am more of a lead-by-example kind of guy, just go out there and do the little things right,” he said. With one more of junior hockey eligibility remaining following this season, Kilistoff has both team and individual goals in mind. Personally, he is working towards securing an NCAA Division 1 scholarship. He graduated from Brookswood Secondary in 2013. And team-wise, the goal remains the same: the Fred Page Cup. Langley, which picked up its first win in three tries this season with a 4-2 win on Sunday in Vernon, captured the Ron Boileau Memorial Trophy in 2013/14 as the top team in the BCHL regular season. It was the first time a Langley junior

hockey team has won the trophy. Unfortunately, the Rivermen ran into the Coquitlam Express in the Mainland Division finals with the Express winning the series en route to captured the Fred Page Cup. “We want to build off last year’s success and we want to win the RBC Cup,” Kilistoff said. ••• For Saturday’s home opener against Nanaimo, the first 1,500 fans will receive a free foam finger. Fans will also get two-for-one entry to the game with a donation to the food bank. Some of the opening game festivities will also include a carnival themed area in the banquet hall, as well as face-painting, balloon animals, food and prizes.

A three-point game from Brendan Gulka helped the Langley Rivermen pick up their first victory of the season. Gulka scored twice in the third period — including the game-winner — to break a 4-4 tie and send the Rivermen to a 7-4 victory over the Vernon Vipers on Sunday afternoon at Vernon’s Kal Tire Place. The win improved the junior A hockey club to 1-2-0-0. “I want to contribute more to the team this season,” said Gulka, a 20-year-old forward who matched his entire goal output from last season when he scored twice in 32 games. “Not just on the fighting side of it, but more with points, so in the off-season I worked on my shot and getting to the areas where the goals are scored.” After Jacob Zeleznikar gave the Rivermen a 1-0 lead after one period, Vernon scored twice to take a 2-1 lead. But the Langley power play came through with Kevan Kilistoff and Gage Torrel both bulging the twine prior to intermission. “Our power play got a lot of work in practice,” said Rivermen assistant coach Kurt Astle. “It was a pleasure to see that hard work pay off.” Langley had a full week off practice since their last game. The teams combined for six goals in the final period with Vernon Continued Page 31

POW for TWU sniper

A seven-point weekend has netted JP Villeneuve the B.C. Intercollegiate Hockey League’s player of the week award. Villeneuve, who was the league’s co-MVP last season and the league’s leading scorer, had a hat trick and one assist for the Trinity Western Spartans in a 9-3 win on Friday night over the UVic Vikes at the Ian Stewart Complex in Victoria. He followed that up with a goal and two assists in the rematch the next afternoon, a 4-3 loss. “It’s a disappointing loss after what we accomplished last night,” said Spartans coach Barret Kropf. “I don’t think our guys backed

off any, but their goalie stood on his head and that was the difference maker. “Our guys got frustrated and we weren’t able to capitalize and he made some pretty good saves.” In the opener, TWU was up 2-0 after one period. And after the Vikes pulled to within a goal, the Spartans responded with four unanswered to close the period with a 6-1 lead. The third period was a little more even with the Spartans scoring three and the Vikes a pair. “It was a solid 60-minute effort,” Kropf said. “(And) our special teams were special when they needed to be.”

The Spartans went 3-for-4 on the power play while Victoria was 1-for-6. Besides Villeneuve’s hat trick, Blair Murphy, Jamie Russell, Cody Fidgett, Cody Stephenson, Micah Cockrill and Florian Niedermaier also scored in the victory. Silas Matthy stopped 27 shots for the victory. The second game saw the Spartans twice fail to protect one-goal leads in a penalty-filled affair. Fidgett scored twice while Villeneuve had the other Spartangoal. Nic Clark (16 saves on 17 shots) and Aaron Oakley (16 saves on 19 shots) each played 30 minutes in goal for TWU in the defeat.

Bears maul Trojans 64-6 The North Langley bantam Bears routed the visiting Vancouver Trojans to the tune of 64-6 on Saturday at McLeod Athletic Park as they remained unbeaten on the season. Pablo Wigwigan crossed the goal-line all three times he touched the ball, while Zander Bailey scored twice more along the ground. Quarterback Jacob Stebbings connected with Alex Henderson on a 12-yard touchdown pass and Stebbings later intercepted a Raiders pass and ran it back for the pick-six. Kicker Charlie May was good on seven convert attempts and also added a field goal. With the game in hand, the Bears’ Riley Jones, Trevan Baarts, Kevin Solares, Brett Anderson and Hanlen all took turns running the ball as North Langley was able to experiment with some new offensive wrinkles. ••• The North Langley Bears rallied from 14 points down to tie the Abbotsford Falcons 14-14 in atom football action on Saturday. The Falcons led 8-0 at the half and then tacked on another touchdown on the second half’s opening kick-off. But from there, the Bears defence held firm, shutting the Falcons down the rest of the way. Owen Sieben got North Langley on the board with a 10-yard touchdown run in the third quarter and Keaghan Hurley tied the score on a short run

in the fourth. Ty Gallinger added the convert on the second touchdown. Ezekiel Bodill led a strong Bears defence, with Manny Fotiou, Annika Key and Caleb Price also delivering timely tackles. Reece Fennell, Taylor Bear and Evan Hoy all had strong games, moving the chains with an effective ground game. ••• The North Langley Bears flag football team split into two team squads over the weekend for a pair of games each. The red squad tied their first contest against Meadow Ridge 7-7 and then beat Abbotsford 28-0. Some of the highlights included quarterback Ryan Heutink evading heavy pressure and getting the ball to Ben Evans, who made an amazing catch and then evaded all pursuers for 50 yards to find the end zone. Colton Matheson and Ronan Langford provided exceptional pass coverage, while Gideon Bodill and Taylen Goncalves came up with quarterback sacks. The second game saw an unstoppable offensive performance as Damon Bernemann, Finlay Johnston, Sam Sieben and Jesse Davison all scored on long runs. Defensively, Aeden Ennis had a strong game at linebacker, funneling the ball carriers to the inside where Triston Todd would be waiting to make the stop. •••

The North Langley Bears lost 18-6 to the Chilliwack Blue Giants in peewee football at McLeod Athletic Park on Saturday, seeing their record fall to 2-2-1. The Bears engineered two long drives in the first half, the first of which was capped by an eightyard touchdown pass from Jaxon Stebbings to Mathieu Gale. The second drive, however, saw Gale stopped on the oneyard line on the final play. The second half saw North Langley struggle to move the ball past midfield. Jacob Deibert and Jacob Evans both had tackles for losses, while Stang, Gale, Brandon Folkerts and Nick Reimer had multiple tackles. ••• Great plays by the North Langley Junior Bantam Bears were not enough against the Abbotsford Falcons on Saturday as the Bears were defeated 44-0 in junior bantam football at Abbotsford’s Rotary Stadium. Key timing by the Bears resulted in two interceptions by Trevor Paulenz and a quarterback sack by Jude Wessel. Kevin Morrison’s blocking helped to create room for big carries by Brandon Brynjolfson, Evan Rees, Ethan Bernardin and a first down pass reception by Cadeyrn Barthelson. Defensively, the Bears slowed down the Falcons drive with tackles by Joey Yeomans, Carlos Redekopp, Ronil Chand and Dakota Jenkins.

Langley Mustangs’ Azuka Okoli (#10) follows the block of Jacob Smart (#23) as he cuts the ball upfield during his bantam football team’s 35-7 victory over the Chilliwack Giants on Sunday at McLeod Athletic Park.

Broncos unbeaten in three The Langley Broncos expanded their unbeaten streak to three games with the 30-24 victory over the Richmond Raiders. The atom football teams clashed at McLeod Athletic Park on Sunday with Vaughn Pinchin, Jordy Tomica and Liam McCormick all finding the end zone. Cody Oliver and Macram Deng led the team while Riley Dryborough gave a great effort on both sides of the ball.

Langley improved to 2-2-1 on the season. ••• The score was one-sided, but the Langley Outlaws played hard from whistle to whistle in a 49-0 loss to the North Delta Longhorns at John Oliver Park on Friday in junior bantam football. The running back-by-committee of Nick Murray, T.J. Fujimura, Chris Kongbo and Tyson Tomb took advantage of the holes

opened by their offensive line to move the ball down the field, but the Longhorns defence prevented them from crossing into the end zone. Brodie Thomas,Nico Pavicic, Gabriel West,Braxton Bedard,Michael Giustino and Roloff all had a multiple tackle games while Hayden Horan did a nice job on kick-off returns. Stryker Roloff was solid on special teams, averaging 35 yards per punt.

Lee takes title

Langley’s Matthew MacDonald tees off at the MJT Lindsay Kenney Classic held on Sunday at the Belmont Golf Club.

A birdie putt on the first hole set the tone as Langley’s Willis Lee won the juvenile boys’ title. The 15-year-old shot an even-par 70 at the MJT’s Lindsay Kenney Classic held at the Belmont Golf Club on Sunday. His score was also the lowest among the close to 90 competitors competing in the eight different divisions. “It’s encouraging for golf to see almost 90 young players come out at the end of the season,” said Neil Bidewell, the tournament director on the Maple Leaf Junior Golf Tour. Lee edged out West Vancouver’s Owen Xiong by four strokes in the boys’ 15/16 division. Langley’s Ben Whiton tied with Chilliwack’s Mitchell Thiessen for third spot. Two other local golfers also showed well, with Jackson Trozzo placed seventh and Jaxson Stobbe was 11th in the juvenile boys division. Matthew MacDonald and Connor Borrowdale finished seventh and eight, respectively, in the junior boys division and Luyang Jiang was tied for ninth in the girls division. Craig Nordin was 15th and Ryan de Bulnes was 17th in the peewee boys division and Andy Jang was tied for 13th in the bantam boys group. Also in that group, David Choi was 19th.

Turning the ball over 10 times proved to be too much to overcome for the Langley Rams as they lost any shot they had at finishing in top spot in the B.C. Junior Football League regular season. The Rams were at Kelowna’s Apple Bowl to face the Okanagan Sun on Sunday afternoon in the rubber match of the teams’ three-game season series, with the hosts winning 37-20. The Rams were able to move the ball against the Sun, with 340 yards of total offence, but were plagued by turnovers as they threw three interceptions and lost four fumbles. The other three turnovers were when the team failed on third-down gambles. “The moral of the story was turnovers; turnovers and big play momentum, that was huge,” said Langley coach Jeff Alamolhoda. “We went up early but they got a big play to get their guys riled up and back into it. “Anytime you turn the ball over that many times, you don’t really have a chance. And we were still in the game, and that is just a testament to our guys fight and their ability to fight through.” The Sun managed 315 yards, but only 112 through the air, and just two rushing touchdowns. The bulk of their damage came from the kick-off returns of Robbie Yochim, who took two kicks to the house. Each had won once previously but this latest victory gives the Sun (8-1) home-field advantage through the playoffs. The Rams (6-3) need a win this weekend — or a Kamloops Broncos (6-3) loss — against the Valley Huskers (1-8) in Chilliwack to finish second and earn home-field advantage in the

BCFC semifinals against Kamloops. Langley got off to a great start against Okanagan, jumping out to a 10-0 lead on a short field goal from Steve Thomas and a 27-yard touchdown pass from Jordan McCarty to Malcolm Williams. Following the Langley major, Yochim took the ensuring kick-off 105 yards for the touchdown to get the Sun on the board and on the final play off the first quarter, Alex Bradley found a hole and raced 50 yards for the touchdown and a 14-10 lead. Okanagan added a field goal to make it 17-10 but late in the first half — on a third-down gamble — McCarty found Daniel English from 32 yards out and the teams went to the locker room knotted at 17. The game was effectively lost in a span of less than five minutes. After being pinned deep in their own end, Langley conceded a safety rather than punt to the ever-dangerous Yochim. But on the ensuing kick-off, Yochim fielded the ball and took it back 95 yards for the score. And on the ensuing kick-off, the Rams’ John Beckerleg fumbled and the Sun recovered deep in Langley territory. A few plays later Kasey Russell scored from one yard out. Thomas added another field goal but that would be it for Langley points as the Sun countered with a field goal of their own and a punt single. Beckerleg and Ethan Schulz came up with interceptions for the defence while Clovis Lumeka had a fumble recovery and Ryan Nicholls had a blocked punt. Dylan Roper and Alex Benning each had a quarterback sack. Alex Agnoletto (seven tackles, four assists), Brandon Klein (seven tackles, two assists) and Brock Gowanlock (five tackles) led the defence.

Astle said. “When we get scored on, we just have to push back, that was another big focus for us all week.” Will Cook added an insurance marker and Marcus Vela scored into the empty net to round out the scoring.

Vela, who found his name on NHL Central Scouting’s initial players to watch list released last week, finished with a goal and two helpers. Cook also finished with three points. In goal, Darren Martin stopped 23 of the 27 shots he faced.

hard to beat. The engineers have done a great job of bringing the suspension into the modern world and the new EcoBoost engine will be very popular, once people try it. The old-school buyers will be attracted to the meaty V8 but often, sensible decisions prevail and the EcoBoost is a solid experience. The styling is stunning, inside and out. To be blunt, this car will be a homerun for Ford. There are two things I’d like to see improved. The seat back has no electric actuation, which means getting the right spot is hard to achieve. The second is the suspension in the GT can be a bit bouncy over city conditions but settles right down at highway speeds – pretty minor stuff for an all-new car. The Lowdown Power: 2.3L turbo 4-cylinder with 310hp, 300hp V6 or 435hp V8 Fill-up: N/A (city/highway) Sticker price: $24,999-$52,899 zack.spencer@drivewaybc.ca

After three months of raised speed limits on stretches of major B.C. highways, are you happy with the new limits or should they be changed again – up or down? Go to DrivewayCanada.ca to submit your answer. QUESTION

OF THE WEEK!

Safety Tip: Fall can be a good time to get a deal on a new or used car, truck or SUV. If you’re shopping for a vehicle, look for the newest, safest one in your price range and check the U.S. Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) website for vehicle safety ratings.

Ford has done a good job of ensuring the Mustang feels and looks upscale even on the basic models

Three red peppers and a bright red roadster to go, please Judging by the number of people who stop to chat to members of the Driveway team in the supermarket, most of you still rely on newspapers like this one to help narrow down your next-car by Keith Morgan shortlist. Total strangers often boldly approach us in the veggies’ section to ask what car they should buy next. After a few questions about what their budget is and how they will use the vehicle, we can usually give them five products to consider. I should add, that lead reviewer Zack Spencer fields most questions in airport lounges across the country! Next to house buying, it’s generally a family’s second largest purchase made so it should be no surprise that people want to seek advice. We learned earlier this year, that polling revealed that our readers will spend a staggering $3.6 billion on new cars in the next year and another $1.69 million on used cars or preowned, if we are to be sensitive to the feelings of those vehicles with a few kilometres on their clock! It’s true there are so many electronic ways now available to do that basic research but while the internet and social media play an important role in your car selection, auto writers romance you in print over the months leading up to you signing on the dotted line. We bring you news of the latest products and test drive as many of them as we can for you. What has changed dramatically in recent years is the way we present that information. For many years, automo-

tive sections were a strictly male domain and we thought that all we needed to do was make a few remarks about a subject car’s handling, print some pictures then list its specifications. Pretty boring, really, unless you are a car nut. Now there is solid research that reveals that women play a major role in the purchase decisions made in around 80 percent of car sales. And it’s obvious that most males really do not spend their days trolling automotive websites, as some would have us believe. Some men will even admit they really don’t know that much about cars. I know, say it ain’t so. For the aforementioned reasons, we at Driveway try to bring you stories about, or involving cars, that are of a broader interest. Whenever possible, we bring your lifestyle-oriented stories that may involve, travel, fashion and even music that speak to regular folks. Just one example. Who could resist reading recently about Alexandra Straub’s about her drive in an Audi from Munich to Budapest, just to have a home cooked meal with her grandparents. – Judging by the response, not many! We even included the menu and recipe. In the coming year, we will continue to share such stories with you, to entertain you and inform you. And we want to hear your stories about your road trips, your favourite cars and what you would like to read more about in Driveway. Please don’t hesitate to drop me a line or stop me in the meat section of the supermarket, which is more likely where you will find me. keith.morgan@drivewaybc.ca

Open SATURDAYS

Tips your dad should have taught you We’re not always around a fully stocked garage, auto parts store or tool chest when the need arises to save the day with a big repair. Sometimes, when you have a breakdown you’ve got to go with what falls readily to hand, whether it’s duct tape, J-B Weld or a coat hanger. Here are five stories of some truly epic improvised repairs: Dormitory parking lot transmission repair: Rory Carroll is now the Executive Editor of Autoweek magazine. While at Michigan State University, he was foolish enough to loan his 1991 Volkswagen Golf GTI to a fellow student the day before he was supposed to make the three-hour drive home to Traverse City, Mich. “When he returned the keys to me, he told me that the car had made a loud noise when he’d parked it.” Carroll found the GTI in the dorm parking lot sitting in a pool of oil; the “friend,” however, was nowhere to be seen. Two chunks of transaxle case were lying in the middle of said pool. Carroll took a bus to a hardware store where he purchased some J-B Weld and, optimistically, four quarts of transaxle oil. He cleaned the pieces of the transaxle case in his dorm room sink, mixed up the J-B Weld and drove the Golf up onto the curb to get at the transaxle. Carroll pushed the metal fragments and J-B Weld back into place, wedged them in with a piece of wood and waited a few hours before refilling the transaxle with oil and hitting the road — into the jaws of a winter storm as only Northern Michigan can do them. Blown head gasket and cylinder head during a race: The 24 Hours of LeMons is an endurance race for $500 cars. The organizers say that the premise “isn’t just an oxymoron, it’s a breeding ground for morons.” Damned resourceful morons, anyway — perhaps even the Steve Jobs and Thomas Edison of the improvised repair world. Team Dr. Feelgood’s 1993 Dodge Shadow was participating in “Capitol Offense,” the D.C.-area version of the infamous motorsports affront, when not surprisingly; the Shadow blew a head gasket and disintegrated part of the cylinder head itself. The intrepid racers made a new gasket and slathered J-B Weld on the toasted cylinder head, allowing them to finish the race and win the coveted Judge’s Choice Award without having to resort to a bribe,

as is customary for awards in the LeMons world. Leaky radiator addressed by another kind of leak: Tim Suddard is the publisher of Classic Motorsports and Grassroots Motorsports magazines. No stranger to ill-advised road trips in old cars, Suddard (who resides in Florida) was on a cross-country road trip in a vintage motor home, when it sprang a leak in its radiator while traversing sparsely populated Wyoming. He valiantly dumped every liquid in the motor home into the radiator but still fell short of the nearest town (and bathroom) by a few miles. He killed two birds with one stone, and you can guess how.

for your convenience We accept all insurance claims including: CDI, CNS, RSA, and Family Insurance

Fabricated Florida fan belt: Another time, Suddard found himself behind the wheel of a questionable machine, a dilapidated early 1990s vintage E30 BMW 318. Rather than towing the car home, he elected to drive the tired Bimmer the 200 odd miles home. Predictably, something failed (in this case, a fan belt in I-95 Miami rush hour). The ever-resourceful Suddard reached for the only thing that fell readily to hand, a roll of duct tape known to racers affectionately as “200 mph tape.” By twisting a length of it repeatedly, and then fastening the ends, Suddard was able to fashion a temporary fan belt that allowed him to make it home. Failed generator generates repeat battery purchases: Suddard is clearly a good guy to have around when you break down in the middle of nowhere. In the third chapter of the Suddard trilogy, a few years back, he bought a 1963 Ford Ranchero. The seller assured Suddard it was ready to drive across the country. Taking him at his word, Suddard set off in the Ranchero on a cross-country drive. As it turns out, it was far from road ready with no heat and a failing generator. Given the fact that Ford had switched from alternators to generators for the 1965 model year, there were none to be found in any auto parts stores along the way. Suddard simply stocked up on batteries and a battery charger. He drove (during the daytime only) on the batteries and charged them in the hotel room at night.
