The event was organized by Soroptimist International of the Langleys and Ishtar Transition Housing Society.
Fake firearm used to rob restaurant Rather than pay his bill, police allege a customer opted to hold up Langley Earls

A 27-year-old man of no fixed address has been charged in two robberies, including one where his friends left him to pay the bill at Earls restaurant in Langley. Gregory James Fader has been charged with one count of robbery using an imitation firearm and another count of robbery. The first robbery took place on Nov. 17, when police allege Fader approached the cashier at the customer service desk in Langley City Save-On-
Foods and demanded the cash from the till. Cash was given to the robber before he fled the store. Later that night, Fader was at the Earls restaurant with a group of acquaintances. The rest of the group left Fader in the restaurant to settle the bill, Langley RCMP said. Police allege that rather than paying the bill, the man produced what appeared to be a firearm and demanded cash. When employees did not provide any, he allegedly took several bank deposit bags from a desk and fled. It’s believed the bags contained
over $1,000, said police. Later that evening, officers saw a man who matched the description provided by the victims in each robbery. Fader was arrested and brought back to Langley detachment cells. Fader has been remanded in custody and is scheduled to appear in Surrey Provincial Court today (Nov. 27). He is also facing break-and-enter charges along with two other charges related to an alleged crime that took place in May in Langley. One woman has already been sentenced to one day in jail for that crime.

Critics of a proposed 77-acre commercial truck park on the Surrey-Langley border say the site is more than just a former gravel pit. They made their case Wednesday afternoon to a group of Langley Township councillors who took a tour of the location at 16 Avenue and 194 Street. The visit by Langley councillors Kim Richter, Petrina Arnason and David Davis was arranged by Brian Coote of the Friends of Hazelmere/Campbell Valley group, along with David Riley from the Little Campbell Watershed Society and Kirk Stevenson, who lives beside the proposed facility on 16 Avenue, near the Langley-Surrey border. Township senior longrange planner Russell Nelson also attended. Coote said the organizers did not invite Surrey councillors to the tour, because they doubted they would attend. They might issue an invitation another time, he added. Coote told the Township council members that it was wrong to describe the
site as a “discarded gravel extraction pit.” Roughly half of the site is actually farm land, the result of landscape restoration work on the gravel pit once the digging was finished. “It’s agricultural land, productive land,” Coote said. The land has been used as a working farm to raise llamas, Stevenson said. The other half of the site is still an active excavation, but it is supposed to be filled in once it’s been completely emptied, the critics said. Stevenson, who lives in one of several houses that overlook the filled-in site, said the parking project poses a safety threat. “No one wants to live next to that (traffic generated by the big rig parking lot),” Stevenson said. “I’ve got four kids under nine, riding their bikes around.” The councillors also heard from Riley, who said contamination from the trucks could damage the Little Campbell River and contaminate groundwater in Langley’s Brookswood neighbourhood.

Landscaper crowned chief of African village ‘It is in my heart to change my village,’ says Langley’s Eric Manu, who becomes chief of a village in Ghana this January MIRANDA GATHERCOLE Times Reporter
Langley City resident Eric Manu knew one day he may be called to serve his home country of Ghana, but it did nothing to lessen the shock of being told, “You will be the next successor to lead the village.” “I said, ‘Are you kidding?’” said Manu, 32, who has been working as a landscaper since coming to Canada in 2012. “I said ‘OK, I will discuss that with my boss.” Manu approached his boss and close friend, Susan Watson, for advice. His uncle, who was chief of the Adansi Aboabo II village in the East District of Ashanti Region of Ghana, had passed away, and Manu was next in line. He had recently married a Canadian, Dorrie, and had a newborn baby at home. There was a lot to consider. Luckily, Watson was overwhelmingly supportive. Not only did she encourage him to take the position, she helped him launch the To The Moon and Back Foundation to collect donations for the village, and will be visiting him in Africa during his coronation in January. “I am so grateful for my boss and her encouragement for me to take the throne,” Manu said. “She said, ‘You have the courage, I see your spirit; you are a young guy with a positive mind and if you go for it, I am with you.’” But before the news could fully sink in, the pair had another shock to deal with: the press. It’s been a media frenzy for Manu, who in the past couple of weeks has been approached for seven different documentaries, a TV series, and several articles from media outlets around the world. He has also received an outpouring of support from organizations that want to help, such as Livecare telemedicine and Organics 4 Orphans.
“I see it to be a blessing,” Manu said. “It’s a life-changing opportunity for the village and the people. It is something that I never dreamed of. I never thought this would happen to me. The life change for me is going to affect them as well, in a positive way.” Manu has big dreams for the village of 6,000 people, who have never before received donations. Since founding the To the Moon and Back Foundation, he and Watson have already shipped a 20foot container filled with clothes, books and supplies to the village, and have many items leftover that still need to be sent.
In Ghana, we think money grows on trees in Canada, but when I came here I trimmed the trees and there’s no money on them.

Eric Manu, who goes by the name Kojo in Ghana (meaning born on a Monday), will be coronated as chief of the Adansi Aboabo II village in January. Until then, he is still working as a landscaper in Langley with his boss, Susan Watson, who will be visiting Manu in Africa in the new year.
ERIC MANU
He also hopes to revitalize the village’s culture, preserve their historic landmarks from times of slavery and create an educational exchange program. “It is in my heart to change my village,” Manu said. “We want corporate bodies to help in terms of education, health, agriculture, any opportunity that will change the life of the people.” A big part of this is through the exchange program, which Manu and Watson are very passionate about. By having Canadians stay in
Ghana, they can teach the village members valuable skills to empower them, to make them more independent and, ultimately, to keep the young people in the village, Watson said. “Eric worries about the young people going into the cities, which attracts them for money, but then they end up going into drugs and prostitution rather than making the fast buck that everyone thinks they’re going to,” she said. Likewise, Manu hopes the youth can come to Canada as well to share their culture of dancing and drumming. “We want to involve the community of Langley to be part of the foundation,” he said. “This kind of culture is not common here. So when the children come here, they can be teaching the youth here and you never
know, they can go all over B.C. and entertain people.” It is also important to quell the myths of North America that many of the youth have, he added. “They have to come here for the education,” he said. “In Ghana, we think money grows on trees in Canada, but when I came here I trimmed the trees and there’s no money on them. “You still have to wait two weeks for a paycheque. And I work hard for it.” Many of his personal paycheques have gone into building a new home in Ghana, which will be used to headquarter his foundation and house volunteers. “My longterm plan in Ghana is to be an ambassador for the foundation as well as my duties as the
chief,” he said. “I want to project Africa here, and promote the exchange program. I will be championing the cause of moving the youth through drumming and dancing and finding a way of sponsoring them here for summer exchange programs with the community.” Manu and Watson are currently looking for youth organizations to partner with longterm in exchange programs. These could be high schools, universities, community groups or even individuals. They are also taking monetary donations to cover the customs fees for the shipping container (which cost $5,000 to send, most of which Watson paid for herself), and a second crate of goods.

In Gail Martin’s 30 years of rehabilitating wildlife she has never seen anything like this season when it comes to the number of injured or orphaned bear cubs she has taken in. “We are at capacity for bears,” said Martin, founder and executive director of Langley-based Critter Care Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre, located in Campbell Valley Park. “We had 31 bears, but we lost six due to severe starvation. They were eating plastic and metal before they got to us. It’s just so sad,” she said. Critter Care is used to taking in around a dozen bear cubs each year and has enough space to accommodate that number. But now they have cubs waiting while volunteers scramble to get another enclosure ready to house the animals. The bears are coming from all over B.C. — from Merritt and Squamish to Maple Ridge. They are a bit older than the cubs that Critter Care usually takes in, and they are severely malnourished. Another cub arrived from Whistler on Tuesday. “This truly was one of the worst food years for bears, with
berries coming out too early and the forest fires, it was a tragic combination,” Martin said. “It’s also a result of hunting and poaching. The mother bears are being killed, leaving the cubs to fend for themselves.” Habitat encroachment and bears being hit by vehicles are adding to the challenge in B.C., she said. It’s a problem that many say the provincial government needs to address. Recently, however, Premier Christy Clark said she would not review the legality of trophy hunting in B.C., stating it is a economic driver. The Conservation Officer Service has seen cuts in recent years, with officers having to cover wide swaths of territory, from Hope to Whistler. “Conservation officers are doing a good job. They get a bad rap but as busy as they are, they are still finding time to bring us bears in need,” Martin said. “Like us in animal rehabilitation, their job is to deal with more than just bears, but all wildlife.” Martin said she is willing to make room for more bears, because she knows there is a need. But to do so, she would

need local fencing companies to pay for the enclosure. “It’s around $100,000 for the fencing. Fencing companies could come in and get it set up fast. That would be amazing,” she said. She said come spring time, the cubs will be big and then “they don’t like each other.” For that reason, she can’t put 10 animals in one enclosure. Once they’re released back into the wild, they have to have room to roam and food to eat. It’s a constant worry, she said. The cost to feed the bears and all the other animals in care is rising. Bears eat berries, vegetables, salmon and other perishables. Critter Care’s Christmas store opens Dec. 7 until Dec. 19, seven days a week, from 9:30 a.m. until 4 p.m. The public is invited to shop or make a donation to help cover the bears’ expenses. Items for sale include bear paw jogging pants, PJs, bear slippers, coasters, Critter Care birthday cards, calendars, socks and more. Critter Care is located at 481216 St. No viewing of the animals will be offered.

1,300 trucks now parking illegally From Page 1
Riley said the “shallow, unconfined aquifer” under the site could be at risk. The councillors who attended appeared to share the critics’ concerns. “I get that parking them by a river is not a good place to put trucks,” Richter said. The facility has been proposed by GG Metro Holdings Ltd. It is supported by the BC Trucking Association, Surrey Board of Trade and Surrey Councillor Tom Gill, who says with an estimated 1,300 big rigs parking illegally throughout the city,
A&W robbed at knifepoint The A&W restaurant in Port Kells was robbed by a man brandishing a knife on Nov. 22. A young Caucasian man, wearing baggy clothes, entered the A&W around 6:30 a.m., demanding cash. Police say he was given a sum of money and left the store. He is described as round faced, with brown eyes, a shaved head and dirty hands. He was wearing a black hoodie with silver and gold designs, black pants, with white lettering “PL” embroidered on the left thigh. Anyone with information that will help police with this investigation, is asked to call Langley RCMP at 604-532-3200.
something needs to be done to find parking spaces. The truck park would allow truckers to wash their rigs, change oil and tires, and would include washroom facilities. Gill said he would insist on the highest
environmental standards. The development plan would have to undergo a public hearing before it could come to council for approval. Coote told The Times the opponents of the project were “not at all” reassured to hear
that Surrey councillors have told their Langley counterparts that the project probably won’t proceed. The comments were made during an informal dinner meeting of the two councils. - with files from Black Press

Rudy, the Operation Red Nose mascot, and the Langley chapter of Operation Red Nose are ready to make sure people get a safe ride home this holiday season. Several party venues, including Newlands Golf Club, have made donations to the program, recognizing that many of their patrons benefit from ORN. “We have hot spots we go to, where big events are happening, but mainly it is firstcome, first-served,” she said. Castron suggests people call about 30 minutes before they want a ride.

holiday cheer and get them — and their vehicle — home (or wherever they’re headed next). Drivers based out of Langley will pick people up at parties in Surrey, White Rock, Langley and Aldergrove. “We are the biggest chapter, in territory,” said co-ordinator Meagan Castron. This is Castron’s first year organizing the safe ride home program. Last year, Langley’s ORN recorded 825 safe rides home. “We were third best in the province, but I’m hoping to beat that number this year,” Castron said. Teams are busiest on New Year’s Eve, when drivers and their crews work into the wee hours of the morning. There is no charge for the service but donations are accepted on behalf of Langley Gymnastics Foundation. LGF has been running Operation Red Nose each year for 17 years, with its headquarters located inside the gymnastics club’s office. Many of the main volunteers are staff, parents and others who are part of the foundation. “I’m pretty excited to get going,” said Castron. “But now, taking this on, I had no idea how much work was involved to get it all organized. I’ve had a lot of help from past co-ordinators and volunteers who have been with us for years.” The daughter of Langley Christmas Bureau co-ordinator Leigh Castron, Megan has roped her mother into volunteering, too. “She said she is all mine, once the bureau is finished,” she said.

Langley grandmother outwits pair of would-be con artists Residents warned to be aware of fake Canada Revenue collection calls DAN FERGUSON Times Reporter
Elli had never heard about the fake Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) scam until her phone rang last Friday, Nov. 20. The man on the line said he was with the CRA’s “investigation department.” He asked for her name, then told the 75-year-old Langley grandmother she owed $1,840 in back taxes and would be arrested later that day if she didn’t come up with the cash, quickly. “If you don’t pay, the police will be at your house in one hour,” the caller said. The man told Elli it would cost her more to fight the assessment than to pay it. “If you want to hire a lawyer, it will be very expensive,” he said. He told Elli she could settle the debt and avoid arrest by buying a prepaid gift card and giving the code to him. He even told her to use her cellphone to stay on the line with him while she went to a nearby Langley City supermarket to buy the card. “Something here is not right,” Elli thought. “When someone is being that pushy, I’m suspicious.” The caller was aggressive and threatening, and so was another man who claimed to be his supervisor. Then one of them demanded her social insurance number. “If you have all my papers in front of you, you would have my social insurance number,” Elli said. “I wish you good day,” she said, and hung up the phone.

Langley grandmother Elli, 75, had never heard of the fake Revenue Canada phone call scam, but quickly became supicious when a man claiming to be a collector for the tax agency threatened her with arrest. She reported the incident to police. Langley RCMP told The Times there has been more than one incident of attempted rip-offs by callers claiming to be collectors for the Canada Revenue Agency in recent weeks. The RCMP points out their officers don’t ever act as collection agents for the CRA, and the CRA states their staff never attempt to negotiate settlements using prepaid gift cards. The con men like the cards because once they have the code on the back, they can transfer the money anywhere. This summer, the CRA issued a warning about an increase in telephone scams where callers contact Canadians claiming to be from the CRA and use “ag-
gressive and forceful language to scare them into paying fictitious debt.” If you get such a call, the tax agency says to hang up and report it to the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre by calling 1-888495-8501 as well as local police (the Langley RCMP non-emergency number is 604-532-3200). When the CRA does call a taxpayer, the authenticity can be checked by phoning 1-800-9598281. Elli (who asked that her last name be withheld) said she was relieved to end her encounter with the con man without damaging her bank account. She hopes telling her story will help prevent other people from falling victim.
of travel was provided. Foot traffic in the area was substantial, so a track was unlikely to be left for a police dog to pick up, say police. The suspect is described as Caucasian, approximately 35 years old, 5’10” – 5’11” tall, 200 lbs., with a partial beard. He was wearing a baseball cap, blue jeans, a black puffy winter coat and runners. Anyone with information that might assist with this investigation, is asked to call Langley RCMP at 604-532-3200

Suspect sought in armed robbery of Langley bank Langley RCMP have released a surveillance photo of a man suspected of robbing the Bank of Montreal at gunpoint on Nov. 21. Around 1:30 p.m., the suspect entered the bank’s Willowbrook branch and approached a wicket, where he produced a note indicating he was robbing the bank. He then revealed he had a handgun and the teller provided him with a sum of money, said Langley RCMP. The suspect left on foot, no vehicle was seen and no direction

More left than an empty seat While Langley City Coun. Dave Hall’s sudden resignation on Monday came as a surprise, his decision to step away from his duties to focus on his health is completely understandable. And we certainly wish him all the best for a full and quick recovery. But his abrupt departure leaves more than just an empty chair at the council table. Hall has consistently been a dissenting voice on City council during his seven-year tenure. His stubborn insistence on detailed debate often got under other councillors’ skin, no question. In announcing the resignation, the mayor acknowledged that Hall and the other six members of council regularly found themselves on opposite sides of an issue — but not at the expense of councillors’ mutual respect. The role he played is not always easy or comfortable, but it is important And though Hall often seemed to delight in his role of gadfly, his motive, from what we could tell, was more to ensure that council remained transparent and that people attending meetings or watching at home had a firm grasp of the issues under discussion. In his absence, it’s our hope that whoever is elected in February to fill Hall’s seat will be willing to take on that role — to some degree at least. Or perhaps it will fall to another, sitting, councillor. That’s not to say that every issue has to be discussed, debated and dissected to the nth degree, but clearly, Hall’s contribution was valued by the electorate, who placed him at the the top of the polls among council candidates in the 2014 election. Hall is now facing what has been described as a “significant” battle with cancer — those are frightening words. But if there is one thing we’ve learned about the former City councillor, it’s that he definitely isn’t one to back away from a fight.

I look out the window at the string of lights, coiled on the lawn ready to strike again like some colourful, venomous serpent. The little voice inside tells me I have to finish the job. The little voice sounds a lot like my Dad. The exterior illumination scene from the movie Christmas Vacation strikes a chord in every man’s heart. When Clark Griswold’s lights come on, it is man’s triumph over technology, and we all cheer. After waiting for my circulation to return and the sun to come out from behind the trees, I get the lights on the house. I haven’t turned them on yet, I’ll wait for the perfect day closer to Christmas, put on a Mel Tormé Christmas CD, and with a hot chocolate and a piece of my Mom’s short bread in hand, I’ll have my own personal lighting ceremony. Christmas Spirit is a lot like the flu. You can try to avoid it but once it gets a hold on you, you have to let it run its course. At least that’s what McGregor says.

Take advantage of public engagement opportunities Editor: Re: The Mayor’s Committee on Public Engagement open house. It is interesting to note that approximately 300 people attended the three open houses that were designed to engage the community regarding their opinions on communication related to development processes in the Township of Langley. The events were well publicized and yet less than one per cent of residents attended. I realize this committee was set up to try and avoid the challenges and difficulties that arose from the Brookswood development proposal and the development in Fort Langley. I think the TOL has covered its behind quite well by setting up a committee and providing people ample opportunity to express their opinions about communication in the development process. It would seem, by the turnout, that most people are satisfied by the public process regarding development that the TOL utilizes. There is always room for improvement, however the cost of sponsoring the open houses and hiring the firm “Modus” which specialize in engagement and facilitation to run the interactive program must have been huge to the taxpayer. I would appreciate knowing the cost of this effort and note again that less than one per cent of residents engaged. It should show that people must partake in the process of involvement in public engagement — especially regarding development policy — while there are clear opportunities, rather than after the fact when they aren’t happy with how the development process has unfolded. HOLLY STERMSHNIG, TOWNSHIP OF LANGLEY
Thanks for acknowledging feedback Editor: The following is an open letter to the mayor and council of the Township of Langley: I was very impressed, in a good way, with the feedback from the Mayor’s Committee on Public Engagement. When I attended the open house I was truly pessimistic, due to past experience, on whether any of my comments or those of others would be listened to and acknowledged. I just read the draft feedback and felt that everyone’s comments were acknowledged. I would like to say a big thank you for allowing all who participated to be heard. Of course, I will be watching to see if these acknowledgments will be acted upon in the future. I do have some hope, though. The new cabinet in Ottawa is half women, is representative of all provinces and contains people from all walks of life. The environment is set for a new Canada where the “old cliques” are gone. DIANNE KASK, LANGLEY
Canada’s new PM is more than a former part-time drama teacher Editor: The friends and relatives of letter writer Roland Seguin have probably informed him by now that Canada’s new prime minister is much more than a “part-time drama teacher” (The Times, Nov. 4). By all accounts, Justin Trudeau was a very capable and popular school teacher who taught a range of subjects, including math, English, history and French. I can only guess that Mr. Seguin’s mind was so full of admiration for Langley’s Conservative MP that he didn’t pay much attention to what the other politicians were doing.
If you think about it, there probably isn’t a better background for a political leader than high school teacher, someone who has to have good personal and communication skills, combined with honesty and integrity and a sound grasp of reality. It’s a shame that Mark Warawa’s light, humorous remark about Hair Trudeau degenerated into such a ridiculous political dust-up. GREG MCINTYRE, LANGLEY
Old Yale Road ‘a disgrace,’ says writer Editor: Old Yale Road is a disgrace to Murrayville. It is time to resurface this road.. There are two cafés, two houses of worship, a school and a medical practice office on Old Yale. I travel this road two to six times a day and note the traffic on it — any vehicles, plus pedestrians and peo-
ple on scooters. With the potholes all the way down to the bedrock in certain places, cracks and patches over patches countless of times, this is very dangerous, especially to the Scooter riders. If they happen to hit a hole and tip, this would be a unnecessary disaster.
This is not heritage, it is a disgrace to our community. Mount a chunk of the road concrete as a point of interest with the dates road was built to welcome to Murrayville. PHYLLIS NAGY, LANGLEY
Many thanks for return of ‘No left’ precious medal lost Nov. 11 sign has Editor: Every once in a while something happens to cause me to be reminded that our little world is inhabited by some very nice thoughtful people. As an example, allow me to illustrate with the following story: Although I served in the RCAF for a short time after the Second World War, I did not partake in any military war action. However, Nov. 11 has always been a very important date for me, as both my father and my grandfather served in the First World War. I often wear some of their medals when attending the service at the cenotaph as a tribute to the sacrifices they made so that we would have a better world to live in. After the ceremony this past Remembrance Day at the Fort Langley cenotaph, I noticed that one of the medals I had been wearing was missing. I presumed that it had fallen off and by this time had probably been inadvertently trampled into the soggy ground.
However, I spoke to an RCMP officer who was on duty about the loss. She asked me to describe the medal and assured me that the proper people would be notified. I was very grateful for her concern, but by this time I had reconciled myself to the fact that I would probably never see the medal again. What a wonderful surprise, when on Nov. 18, the telephone rang and it was the RCMP notifying me that a person had gone to the trouble of turning in the medal and it was going to be delivered to my home shortly by the officer to whom I had spoken at Fort Langley. We are so fortunate to be living in this wonderful place, where such considerate people live. Both the person who found the medal and the RCMP member showed that thoughtfulness, kindness, and love of fellow humans is very prominent here. With many sincere thanks to both. RENÉ DOYHARÇABAL, LANGLEY
no reason to exist Editor: In answer to Barbara Ewart’s letter (The Times, Nov. 11) about drivers ignoring the no left turn sign at 216 Street and Glover Road, perhaps it’s because there is no logical reason not to turn left. There was no restriction for many, many years before hand; why now? If you can’t turn left there, just imagine how much further you would need to go to get on Glover northbound toward the freeway or Fort Langley etc. JEFF LAURIE, LANGLEY

More air time for Langley cadet Teen with pilot’s licence wins $2,500 training bursary
D AN F ERGUSO N Ti me s Re po r t e r
A 17-year-old Langley air Cadet has won more time in the air to polish his fling skills. Taewoong (Jeff) Yoon has been awarded a $2,500 bursary from the Aircrew Officer’s Association in partnership with the Air Cadet League of Canada. The AOA represents Canadian-employed pilots of Cathay Pacific. The money will go to a pilot training facility so Yoon, who already has his pilot’s licence, will be able to add more hours of flight time in order to upgrade his licence. Yoon is a Warrant Officer Second Class (WO2) with 746 Lightning Hawk Squadron Royal Canadian Air Cadets in Langley. The bursary is only one of two offered to cadets across Canada. AOA president Kevin Houghton presented the cheque. “It is important for the flying community to encourage youth to enter aviation,” Houghton said. Major Matt Dykeman, Commanding Officer of 746 Lightning Hawk, described Yoon as “an excellent leader and role model to the younger cadets.” Bruce Foster, 746 Sponsoring Committee Chairperson said Yoon was “an outstanding cadet who is well liked by his peers.”

Drive to conditions, police warn Police are warning drivers they can actually be ticketed for driving the speed limit. The caution from B.C. RCMP Traffic Services comes with the onset of darker, often rainy conditions in the Lower Mainland, and the possibility of snow in the weeks ahead. “Speed limits are maximums in ideal conditions and many drivers disregard this when the weather changes,” said Cpl. Ronda McEwen. “The roads are often wet and slippery and visibility is poor due to fog and rain. Drivers need to make the necessary adjustments.” If you’re in a crash and police determine you were travelling at
an unsafe speed for the road conditions you could be issued a violation ticket for speed relative to conditions, she said. That’s a $167 fine with three penalty points that can be issued even if you were within the posted speed limit. B.C. police issued 460 tickets to drivers last fall and winter for driving too fast for the road conditions. Motorists are also being urged to take extra precautions to watch for pedestrians, to ensure all vehicle lights and wipers are working properly, and to take time to defrost windows before heading out on the road.

Ember, a nine-year-old German shepherd, made her 20th and final blood donation at the Animal Emergency Clinic of the Fraser Valley in Langley last Saturday morning. Owner April Spiess (left) and registered veterinary technologists Kingsley Milligan (top right) and Andrea Dyck (lower right) keep a close eye on the dog, which happens to have a universal blood type that can be given to any dog.

Ember, a nine-year-old German shepherd is retiring after reaching the maximum recommended age for dogs to give blood
Susie Francis & the Versatiles presents
MONIQUE TAMMINGA Times Reporter
On Saturday, Nov. 21, Ember the dog gave her final donation of blood. The gentle giant has reached the age of nine and, in dog years, that means it’s time to retire. During her years as a donor, Ember, a German shepherd, has saved the lives of as many as 20 dogs. “She’s a very special dog,” said Andrea Dyck, blood services co-ordinator at the Animal Emergency Clinic of the Fraser Valley. “She is a great ambassador. We are calling November “No-Ember,” because we will miss her coming here,” said Dyck.
LET IT SHOW
Ember donated blood every three months, but also came in for emergencies. One time Ember was called in soon after a donation because there was an emergency. “I called to see how she was doing the next day and her owner said they had competed in agility, but Ember didn’t win like usual, so maybe she was off a bit,” said Dyck. “It clearly didn’t phase her. “The dogs that donate are given a can of food and some water after each blood donation. It’s like their juice and cookie,” she said. Dyck took over the blood donation services at the clinic in 2007 when a very small group of dogs
were donating, and only on an emergency basis. Now there are 30 canine donors and eight felines, she said. “These animals are saving lives. It’s really an amazing thing and the owners are very kind to step up,” she said. A dog has to be a minimum of 50 pounds to donate blood. She said she’s never noticed a difference in an animal’s behaviour after they’ve given blood. However, most dogs should stop at eight years of age, or go on for only another year, as Ember did, at the owner’s discretion. If you think you would like your canine or cat to be part of this program, email donateblood@animalemerg.com.

Mr. Mike’s GM Devin Deening and kitchen manager Toni Bellwood play a rousing battle of Battleship, just one of the many games offered to customers while they wait for their food at the iconic Langley eatery.
iconic restaurant offering their famous classic burgers and salad bar. While they no longer offer the salad bar, their classic burgers are still one of their number one sellers, said Bellwood. She claims their steaks are ‘second to none.’ Both Deening and Bellwood have worked at Mr. Mike’s for around five years, explaining that it is one of the best places to be employed and it feels like family. “Part of the Mr. Mike’s DNA is community involvement. That’s what makes it great to work here too,’ said Bellwood. They partner with many charities including KidSport and host a toy drive at Christmas, a car show this summer with funds raised going to God’s Little Acres Farm. They provided food at the sold out Fraser Valley Wine Festival this month. They also do a work experience program in the kitchen with people with disabilities and have employed
two from that program. One of those people is Special Olympics medalist Josh Lowe who has worked there for one year and is ‘an awesome person to work with,’ said Bellwood. For the third consecutive holiday season, Mr. Mike’s is paying it forward through their “Deeds Well Done” community program. On now until Dec. 31, guests will be encouraged to nominate fellow community members’ good deeds. A nominated “good deed doer” will be selected from Langley and will receive $1,000 from Mr. Mike’s to donate to a charity of their choice. In total, Mr. Mike’s will donate $10,000 in 10 communities across B.C., Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba this season. What game you choose says a lot about you, says Mr. Mike’s staff. • The Winner: Trivial Pursuit — Competitive in nature. • The Wordsmith: Scrabble

MONEY MYTHS
As if going out to dinner wasn’t fun enough, Mr. Mike’s restaurant in Langley has upped its game, literally. Since late September, Mr. Mike’s Steakhouse on 200 Street has offered board games of all types, from Jenga to Scrabble, to customers while they wait for their food to arrive. General manager Devin Deening said it’s been lots of fun to watch families, friends and people on first dates switch off their technology and break out a board game. “Kids love Jenga and checkers,” Deening said. “We have some regulars that come for Thursday’s beer night and who ever loses the crib game pays the tab.” The games, which include Trivial Pursuit, Battleship, checkers, Balderdash, crib,
chess and more, are offered in the Lodge portion of the large restaurant. The Lodge is set up like an adult rec room, but kids are welcome too. Toni Bellwood, kitchen manager, said she’s seen more and more people ordering appies and playing a game, and having fun. “There’s been some excitement around the board games for sure,” said Bellwood, who is partial to Jenga. Like other Mr. Mike’s restaurants, they have noticed that certain personalities are drawn to certain games. People who choose Jenga are usually extraverts, a little bit louder, and younger crowd. Those who are choosing Scrabble are ‘quite intellectual and competitive,” Deening said. “They’ve invested the time to win.” He’s also seen a couple first dates play a board game to keep the mood light and fun. Work Christmas parties at Mr. Mike’s will likely involve a rousing game of Apples to Apples, they said. Mr. Mike’s has been around in B.C. for 55 years, with many people’s memories of the

When: Friday, December 18, 2015 Where: Soowahlie First Nation Community Hall 4393 Soowahlie Rd. Cultus Lake, BC Ryan and Laura Koch are using their $5,000 prize from Dominion Lending Centres to launch their music career.
Langley couple’s prize winning video airing during Grey Cup Local married couple, Ryan and Laura Koch, have won a national video contest for Dominion Lending Centres. The contest, open to clients of DLC, asked entrants to create a 30 to 60 second video describing their experience with DLC. With a history of creating quirky, comedic videos, the Koch’s knew this contest was right up their alley. Laura grabbed their kids’ ukulele and they sat at their kitchen island and came up with a funny little tune. A few days later, they recorded a video of them singing it, incorporating some funny photos of their family, and submitted it to the contest. As it turns out, they were right in thinking the contest was in their wheelhouse. They have just been selected as the grand prize winners. They will receive $5,000 and their video will be used in a national advertising campaign which will air across the country in movie theatres, during the Grey Cup, and the February Super Bowl, among other featured broadcasts. The couple have a band called The Kwerks that they formed this past summer and the winnings have already been put to use helping move the band forward.
“The winnings gave us the chance to buy some sound equipment and has also helped us record our first album,” Laura said. Their album will be released in February, 2016.
To connect viewers with their music, The Kwerks have announced a release of their single, Better Together, on Nov. 29, the day of the Grey Cup. “We are really looking forward to
seeing where this takes us,” Laura said. “And to have some national exposure early in our journey as The Kwerks is really exciting.” For more on The Kwerks, visit www. thekwerks.com.

SELLING YOUR HOME NEW HOME DEVELOPMENT
How to assess property value to determine selling price By Nicolle Hodges Pricing a house correctly is the most important factor when looking to sell; you don’t want to overprice or undervalue. However, the process of achieving that golden number is not so simple, partly because real estate prices tend to fluctuate quickly. It's important to consult a variety of resources to appraise your home's current value. A house is meant to be lived in, but it shouldn’t look that way when trying to sell it. While every nick in the wall and stain on the carpet may tell a story, it’s time to prepare the home for a new chapter. The goal is to showcase the property and to appeal to a wide audience of potential buyers. It’s important not to allow an emotional attachment to those four walls create a bias towards the home’s true market value. According to Bruce Robinson, Partner at Hugh & McKinnon Realty, pricing a home is not an exact science. “You consider what is sold, what is on the market today (your competition) and fit your
property into the market at a level that you feel is competitive,” he says. “The primary method for determining the value of a property is to compare it with other homes that are on the market, along with homes that have sold and homes that might have been on the market that may not have sold.” Determining a competitive asking price for your home will be based on the current housing market information. The closer your asking to market value, the higher volume of offers you’ll tend to receive. As for tips when assessing a home’s value based on its current state? “There is no one thing that covers all properties,” says Robinson, however, get rid of clutter, clean garages, weed the gardens touch up of
paint where required.” Beyond the home, some factors to take into consideration when determining the price point include the location, the view, lot size, landscape, and presence of wildlife. As previously mentioned, the condition of the home also matters. Is the layout out-dated? When is the last time renovations were completed? Consider the quality of construction, finishes, and fixed appliances, the age of the home, whether it requires major or minor upgrades, and if there any signs of deterioration. Finding the perfect selling amount is one step, but knowing when to put it on the market is another key factor to success. To this, Robinson says that historically spring was always considered the opportune time to place a home on the market, however, the last few years the season doesn’t appear to make much of a difference. “We think it’s more important for an owner to consider where they are moving to, as it’s easier to sell today than it is to buy,” he says. “Make
sure you have a place to move to before you enter a contract to sell, [there is] nothing worse than selling, and then having to pay a premium to get back into the market.” Some additional resources to consult for guidance are: The Multiple Listing Service (MLS): This is a database that tracks homes that have been bought and sold. Your home's sales history: You bought the home at the listed price for a reason. Think back to what was appealing to you about the home and how it compared to other houses on the market and in the neighbourhood at that time. Local listings and open houses: Read local ads and visit open houses for guidance. Trends: Use local and national news to monitor changes in real estate prices. Keep an eye on mortgage rates, the overall health of the market, and other similar factors that may affect a buyer’s confidence. Hugh & McKinnon is one of the longest established Real Estate Companies in the Province; in addition to property sales they manage both Residential and Commercial Property in South West BC.

Taking flight to Denmark DAN FER GUSON Tim es Reporter
Joey Humberstone says his interest in trampoline gymnastics started around the age of eight, when he would experiment with ever-more-dangerous tricks. “I would just flip and hope it would work out,” the 17-yearold Fort Langley resident says. In the interest of safety, his
family decided to have Humberstone conduct his experiments in a more controlled environment and enrolled him in gymnastics training. Nine years later, Humberstone is the Canadian champion in his class and preparing to represent Canada at the world championships in Odense, Denmark next month. He trains at Flip City Gym-

nastics with coaches Rusty Pierce and Arlee Schmidt, where he especially likes trying new moves for the adrenalin rush it produces, and has, mostly, managed to avoid serious injury. That is, if you don’t count the broken finger, ankle injury and a few other consequences of trying to go higher and do more while he’s up in the air. Since his first competition at the age of nine, Humberstone has acquired a considerable amount of neck jewelry, winning medals at events across the country and the United States. The end-goal was to get a high enough score to make it to the world age group championships. He accomplished that in Calgary this summer, taking the gold medal to become the national champion in his category. Next up, Denmark, and representing his country against the best in the world. But it will cost around $6,000 for flight, travel expenses, living expenses during the competition like hotels, food, and other necessities as well as competition fees, and even purchasing specified gymnast attire. An online fundraising campaign has been set up at http://e.gofund.me/ah373sck.
Brown guns her way to share of Canada West record G ARY AH U J A Tim e s Spo r t s
The weekend did not begin with Jessie Brown expecting herself to have a big game. In fact, Brown thought she was in for another tough night on Friday at Winnipeg’s Dr. David F. Anderson Gymnasium. “My check was face-guarding me so tight my whole first shift,” said Brown, a second-year guard from Langley’s Brookswood Secondary with the Trinity Western Spartans women’s basketball team. Brown missed her first four shots — two of them free throws — committed two turnovers and had a foul in the game’s opening moments.
She figured her best bet would be to try and create some room for her teammates on the floor. And as Natalie Carkner began to hit a couple of shots — including three three-pointers — that loosened the defence on Brown and she responded in a big way. Brown tied a Canada West record with nine made three-point attempts, and none were bigger than her final shot. With 0.96 seconds on the clock and the Spartans trailing the Winnipeg Wesmen 73-71, Brown took the inbounds pass and with a defender in her face, nailed the long-distance shot for the win. “To be honest, I didn’t even think I
was going to be open,” she said. “I just hucked it up, it wasn’t even an actual shot.” The basket gave Brown 31 points and more importantly, helped the Spartans win 74-73 to snap a threegame losing streak. They finished the weekend sweep with a 73-50 win to improve to 3-3 on the season. Kayla Gordon led the team win game two with 18 points and she was one of four Spartans to hit double figures. Brown had 13 points in that game, including making four of seven threepoint attempts. She was named the Canada West third star of the week. But more importantly, Brown seems
to have shaken an early-season funk she found herself in. “I played well during preseason and then as soon as the season started, I wasn’t playing very well,” she explained. Known for her sharpshooting abilities, Brown was seven-for-22 over the first four games from beyond the arc, averaging a shade under a dozen points per game. She nearly matched the 47 points in those four games with a combined 44 points in Winnipeg. ••• The Trinity Western Spartans men’s team is still in search of their first win after dropping a pair of games to the Winnipeg Wesmen. The Spartans lost 85-68 and 90-48 to fall to 0-6.

Saints march to semis
GARY AH U J A Ti m e s Spo r t s
A blocked extra point was the difference as the Langley Saints survived their showdown with the Vernon Panthers in the senior varsity AA provincial quarter-finals. “It was a seesaw battle, back and forth,� said Saints co-head coach Ryk Piche. “It was one of those ones that really could have gone either way.� The Saints were playing the Panthers at B.C. Place on Saturday morning. Azuka Okoli opened the scoring for Langley with a 24-yard touchdown run and after a penalty moved them back, the Saints opted to go for two on the convert with Wes Van Vliet hitting Max Joseph in the corner of the end zone for the 8-0 lead. Vernon cut the lead to 8-7 in the second quarter when Justin Haverkamp ran the ball in from two yards out but with under a minute to go in the half, Van Vliet connected with Jayden Korfman to make it 15-7 at the half. The Panthers took their first lead in the second half, first tying the score on a trick play as Ben Hladik hit Levi Nicholas from 45
The Trinity Western Spartans continue to roll as they won twice more over the weekend to improve to 10-0. The women’s volleyball team won 3-1 (25-19,25-17,23-25,2518) and 3-0 (25-17,2514 and 25-11) over the Grant MacEwen Griffins at Edmonton’s City Centre Campus Gymnasium. The Spartans men’s team was also playing in Edmonton against the Griffins, improving to 7-3 after winning both matches by 3-1 scores. They won 25-19, 2325, 25-20 and 25-17 on Friday and 25-22, 3028, 23-25 and 25-23 on Saturday. See full story at www. langleytimes.com.

about in this game on Saturday. The boys were well prepared for certain situations, which was nice to see.� “It was a heartbreaking loss for my boys,� said Panthers coach Sean Smith. “They played an outstanding game and went toe-to-toe with one of the best teams in the province. “Unfortunately, we came up one point short.� The win advances the Saints to the Subway Bowl semifinals, back at B.C. Place, with Langley drawing a different Panthers team, the Abbotsford Panthers. The game will be tomorrow (Saturday) at 5 p.m. The Panthers advanced after beating the top-seed John Barsby Bulldogs, 50-36. Piche knows his team will have its hands full trying to minimize the damage of Abby’s Chase Claypool, who scored six of his team’s seven touchdowns. Piche said the team will be buoyed by the great support they have received from the students and administration at Langley as the school had several buses of fans make the trek to Vancouver last week. — with files from Black Press

yards out and then after recovering the ensuing kick-off, Haverkamp ran in his second score of the day for a 21-15 lead. Langley got right back in the game as Van Vliet threw his second touchdown pass of the day, hooking up with Joseph from 25 yards out to regain the lead 2221. Linebacker Bryce Hamilton then came up with an interception and Okoli scored his second touchdown for the 28-21 advantage. Vernon would lose Haverkamp, their quarterback, to injury, so Nicholas went under centre and the Panthers drove the length of the field before Nicholas scored from a yard out to make it 28-27. However, a missed assignment on the convert attempt, resulted in a blocked kick and the onepoint difference. The Panthers had one more chance to score, but Korfman came up with an interception. “The situational things that we worked on were very successful. And we have been working on them all year long, from our two-minute drill to all sorts of game situations,� Piche said. “It really seemed that these things we practiced all year, came

A third-place finish at the Fraser Valley championships helped the R.E. Mountain Eagles clinch a long-running goal. “The goal at the start of every year — and some years it is a loftier goal than others — is to make it to the provincial championships,” said coach Gura Sidhu. Sidhu has coached the Eagles senior girls team for the past handful of years — excluding last year — and he recalls two years ago when Mountain lost a heartbreaking fifth set to the Brookswood Bobcats, denying his team the chance to move on. But there would be no denying the Eagles in 2015 as the team closed out the Delta Pacers in four sets in the bronze medal match of the 3A senior girls Fraser Valley championships. It is the first time they have advanced since 2005. The four-team tournament was held last week (Nov. 18 to 20) at Clayton Heights Secondary. Mountain was 0-3 in pool play, losing to Fraser Heights 2-1, Clayton Heights 2-0 and then Delta 2-0. The last game was basically a tune-up for both squads as it was already determined they would square off in the bronze medal game. Sidhu — who doubles as a drama teacher — said he had the team do a 30-minute relaxation exercise and there was a sense of calmness among the players. On the court, Mountain raced out to a two sets to zero lead, winning 25-18 and 25-19. They lost the third set 25-19 but gained some momentum by making the score close despite at one point trailing by double digits. And the Eagles closed things out in the fourth set with a 25-17 win. Middle Lauren Ens earned all-star honours for Mountain. The team now prepares for next week’s provincial championships, which will be held Dec. 2 to 5 at Vernon Secondary.
Ice fall to T-Birds
For the first time this season the Fraser Valley Thunderbirds managed to pull off a weekend sweep. The B.C. Major Midget Hockey League team took both ends of their series over the host Kootenay Ice, winning 5-2 and 3-1 at the Nelson and District Community Complex.
Game one saw Langley’s Jonathan Stein and Jonathan Rees each chip in with a goal and an assist while Kaelen Anderson had two helpers. Rees had another goal and an assist in the second game as well. With the victories, Fraser Valley improved to 8-6-4.

Cholowski earns ‘B’ grade Dennis Cholowski has jumped up a letter grade. The Langley teen has been given a ‘B’ grade by NHL Central Scouting in their most recent players to watch list for the 2016 NHL draft. A ‘B’ grade indicates a second or third round candidate. The list was released earlier this week (Nov. 24) and is the second one leading up to the June NHL draft. In the initial rankings list released in late September Cholowski was given a ‘C’ grade, which translates into a fourth to sixth round draft candidate. Cholowski, 17, is a six-foot-one,
165-pound defenceman for the Chilliwack Chiefs and is committed to St. Cloud State for next season. In 23 games, Cholowski has five goals and 15 points in 23 games. Cholowski is one of seven BCHLers to make the list. And this was one of two lists he made this week as Cholowski is also among the invitees for Canada West’s training camp for the World Junior A Challenge. He will be joined at the camp with a pair of Langley Rivermen as both goaltender Bo Didur and forward Justin Fregosa have earned invitations.
Didur is 7-7 with a 2.89 goals against average and a .916 save percentage. Fregona is first on the team with 18 goals and second in points with 30 in 26 games. Sixty players — 18 of them from the BCHL — will take part in the selection camp, which runs Dec. 5 to 8 in Leduc, Alta. From that list, 22 will make the final roster for the World Junior A Challenge, which runs Dec. 13 to 19 in Ontario. It is being co-hosted by Couborg and Whitby and features Canada West, Canada East, the Czech Republic, Switzerland, the United States an Russia.

driveway Porsche launches Canada-wide E-Performance campaign goal of communicating the manufacturer’s pledge to offering performance-oriented and at the same time
highly efficient products. Marking an important step, the display will feature a replica of the 919 Hybrid race car – winner of this year’s 24 Hours of Le Mans and Manufacturer’s title in the 2015 World Endurance Championship, a 2016 Cayenne S E-Hybrid, an interactive touchscreen display, as well as dedicated product specialists. The display is at Toronto’s Yorkdale Mall from now until December 13 and St-Laurent Mall in Ottawa from February 26 to March 20. “We are very proud to be showcasing this initiative,” said Alexander Pollich, president and CEO, Porsche Cars Canada, Ltd. “It will allow consumers to familiarize themselves with the history and application of the incredible E-Hybrid technology which the brand has developed. Innovation and sustainability are important pillars of our brand and we are excited to be able to demonstrate this in a fun and interactive fashion.” The hybrid tradition at Porsche extends back to 1900. That year, Ferdinand Porsche designed and built the Lohner Porsche – the world's first vehicle to have a battery- powered electric drive as well as a combustion engine. That car served as an example of technology transfer from motorsport to production cars: the most advanced form of hybrid drive technology is currently implemented in the 919 Hybrid racecar. Porsche Canada has announced that it had lowered the starting price of the 2016 Panamera S E-Hybrid to $106,600 – a reduction of $3,400 compared to the 2015 model year. ~ Metroland Media

One of the biggest traffic beefs expressed by readers is about left turners who won’t move out into the intersection. Doing so, enables at least two cars and perhaps three to make the turn at the light change, which reduces frustration. What drives-u-crazy? keith.morgan@drivewaybc.ca
