Police have hired a forensic veterinarian
to see if the mysterious deaths of cats in
Langley and Maple Ridge were caused by
humans.
The move comes as the B.C. SPCA and
Ridge Meadows and Langley RCMP detach-
ments probe the suspicious deaths of cats
in Brookswood and the central Maple Ridge
area.
There have been a high number of
reported cases in Maple Ridge and Langley,
which occurred between June, 2011 and
this month.
At this time, it has not been clearly estab-
lished that all of the reported cat deaths are
the direct result of human actions, as it can
be extremely easy to confuse the actions of
a natural predator with those of a human,
police said.
“The joint investigation with the SPCA is
ongoing, and we’re engaging experts in this
field,” said Insp. Dave Fleugel, operations
officer for Ridge Meadows RCMP.
“Ridge Meadows RCMP Serious Crimes
Unit is regularly collaborating with SPCA’s
investigators and Langley RCMP Serious
Crimes.
Police crime analysts are also tracking and
analyzing the reports, and we have been in
contact with the RCMP’s Behavioural Sci-
ence Group, who profile and track deviant,
and unusual criminal behaviour.
“We have received tips from citizens,
which we are responding to (and) I encour-
age anyone else with information
to call the RCMP or SPCA.”
The RCMP has been working
alongside the SPCA since the
original reports surfaced last year.
There was a significant gap of
reported incidents over the win-
ter months, and the number of
reports increased this spring.
Insp. Stephan Drolet, the opera-
tions support officer at the Lan-
gley RCMP detachment, said that
the Lower Mainland District Inte-
grated Forensic Identification Ser-
vice is helping to determine if
human DNA can be recovered.
Dr. Melinda Merck, an American forensic
veterinarian, has been hired to deter-
mine if the deaths are the result of
human action, or a predatory ani-
mal. The veterinarian is performing
necropsies to find the exact cause
of death.
“We have placed a high priority
on getting to the bottom of this, and
commit to continue to work with
the SPCA, and other experts, to pro-
vide the community with answers,”
Fleugel said.
Anyone with any information is
asked to contact SPCA Const. Eilleen
Drever at 604-575-2249, Ridge Mead-
ows RCMP at 604-463-6251, or Langley
RCMP at 604-532-3200.

Stolen motorbike T-bones car, burns
MONIQUE TAMMINGATimes Reporter
A stolen motorcycle burst into
flames when it T-boned a Honda
Civic on Thursday evening in Wil-
loughby.
A 20-year-old woman from Port
Coquitlam was making a left turn
from a church parking lot in the
20300 block of 82 Avenue when
the motorcycle, which police say
was speeding, came over the hill
and drove right into the driver’s
side of her car.
The motorcyclist, a 21-year-old
from Surrey, was thrown from
the bike and his helmet came off
before he hit the ground, said Lang-
ley RCMP spokesperson Cpl. Holly
Marks.
The driver of the blue Honda had
the good sense to climb out the
passenger door as her car caught
fire. The aftermath shows that even
her headrest burned.
Both drivers were taken to hos-
pital. The bike rider’s leg is severely
injured and he also has head inju-
ries, said Marks. The female driver
didn’t suffer any serious injuries.
The bike was stolen in White
Rock, Marks said.
Police will be pursuing charges
of stolen property.

The Township of Langley, in co-operation
with Metro Vancouver Parks is trying to mini-
mize the amounts of slaps, hits and scratch-
ing locals will do this year.
Starting last week, the Township and Metro
Parks began conducting periodic aerial larvi-
cide treatments via helicopter over mosquito
breeding sites located on Brae and McMillan
Islands in Fort Langley. The Township’s nui-
sance mosquito control contractor, Culex
Environmental, is carrying out the aerial
treatments.
One year, Metro Parks decided not to use
larvicide treatments on Brae Island and an
outbreak of mosquitoes nearly shut down
camping that summer. It hurt tourism in the
village, as everyone was being attacked by
swarms of the blood sucking insects. The
Mosquito Control Hotline is 604-872-1912.
NATASHA JONESTimes Reporter
Municipal guidelines dictate that build-
ings in Fort Langley’s commercial core must
meet and respect the village’s heritage.
Eric Woodward has taken that a step
further by naming a new commercial/resi-
dential development after two enterprising
pioneers, David Coulter and John Berry.
Woodward bought the northwest corner
of the former IGA site, at Glover Road and
Mavis Street, and, adding it to the Frontier
Building Supplies property he bought sev-
eral years ago, is developing the Coulter
Berry Building.
It will sit on the site of a general store
owned by Coulter and Berry in the late
1800s.
A school teacher in Ontario for 15 years,
Coulter came to Fort Langley in 1897 on his
way to the Yukon goldfields, and stopped to
visit friends Hugh Davidson and Robert Rid-
dell, owners of the Murray’s Corners Store
in Murrayville. Coulter Court in Bedford
Landing is named after him.
Coulter contacted Berry, also a school
teacher from Ontario, about forming a part-
nership to buy the Murray’s Corners Store.
They did, and together also bought the
general store in Fort Langley. Berry settled
in Langley, and farmed in the area for many
years.
The building, which will occupy 200
feet of Glover Road frontage, is a live-work-
shop concept, said Kurt Alberts, an urban
planning consultant whose role was to
guide the public process in the project. Pre-
sented to the public in late May, the project
received mostly enthusiastic response.
The building, which includes a central
breezeway which will connect Glover Road
to the new IGA, will have 10 apartments
on the top floor, offices on the second, and
shops on the bottom.
There will be parking underground for
58 cars.
Woodward lives in Fort Langley, and as
president of the village’s Business Improve-
ment Association, his focus is to revitalize
the village’s commercial core.
The planned development will be com-
bined with the land formerly occupied by
Frontier Building Supplies, which closed in
May, 2011.
For Woodward, it was important to him
personally to add a sense of vibrancy to Fort
Langley while respecting its past.
“The corner of Glover Road and Mavis
Avenue is the most important corner in Fort
Langley,” he said.
“It is critical to get it right, for all of Fort
Langley. I take this responsibility very seri-
ously. Creating an ideal mixture of vibrancy,
and office and residential uses within a qual-
ity design is extremely important to me.”
Woodward has been involved in every
detail, and says that with the mix of retail,
office and residential within one building
“we can begin to add more consistent
weekday and evening activity to the com-
mercial area, while providing residences
adjacent to the local grocery store and local
services. I think it is a great combination.”
The one and two bedroom apartments
will range in size from 621 square feet to
1,335 square feet.
The southern end of the building over-
looks the former Trove Cottage, now Beat-
niks bistro, at 9194 Glover Rd. So that the
Coulter Berry building does not appear
too imposing, architect Norm Davis, also a
Fort resident, has tamed the south end by
stepping down two storeys. This end, Wood-
ward explained, will have a rooftop patio
with mezzanine and ground level entrance.
He is anticipating at least one other res-
taurant in the building at the ground level.
Other ground level tenants will be a mix
of shops and services which, combined
with the new IGA in a plaza-like ambience,
“will appeal to both local residents and visi-
tors,” Woodward said.
The parkade not only provides sufficient
off-street parking, it also allows much more
versatility for the site.
“The ‘rear’ is actually frontage facing the
IGA,” Woodward said. “And the breezeway,
lane way and rear area form a pedestrian
plaza that will be another unique aspect
of Fort Langley, unlike anything we have
here.”
Woodward calls the development “a team
effort of landowners, local merchants, Town-
ship staff, and mayor and council.”
And, he added, “hopefully this is only the
beginning.”

The City of Langley website was hacked
last Wednesday night by a group calling
themselves the LatinHackTeam against cor-
ruption of the governments.
The home page was replaced with a black
screen and red and yellow lettering telling
users the site was now owned by “Admin-
P4nic — a Latin Hack Team against corrup-
tion of the governments.” They said “follow
us on Twitter.”
Langley City chief administrative officer
Francis Cheung said the hacking caught
them by surprise when the page went down
from 6:40 p.m. to 7:45 p.m. It took the city
less than an hour to restore the site and
erase all the hackers information.
It was the first time the City’s website had
been hacked.
“We don’t know why we were targeted
and the message on the site was quite cryp-
tic, to be honest,” said Cheung. “It could be
because we were out there on the web try-
ing to promote the free Wi-Fi we are offering
in the City.”
Everything on the City’s website is pub-
lic, he said. There aren’t any sensitive files
on the site and it’s not linked to municipal
databases.
The website is run by a third party so the
city is currently working with them to pre-
vent hacking in the future.
Submitted The new Coulter Berry Building on the corner of Mavis Street and Glover Road in Fort Langley will include apartments, office space and shops.

With gas prices hitting the
$1.50 per litre mark, Langley
RCMP are seeing an increase
in gas thefts, but one type of
thievery could cost lives, said
Cpl. Patrick Davies.
Since May 24, there have been
around a dozen separate cases of
gas theft, most involve siphoning
gas from vehicles. But more than
six cases, in Willoughby, Willow-
brook and another further south
in Walnut Grove involve someone
drilling a hole into a gas tank.
Getting underneath a vehicle
and drilling holes into a metal
gas tank could cause a spark
and start a fire or an explosion,
points out Davies. The potential
for danger is high and for the
little amount of gas that can be
taken, it can’t be worth risking
life and limb, he said.
Plus, the cost to replace a gas
tank for the vehicle owner can
be more than $500.
Other thefts in Langley have
involved siphoning from cars,
trucks and construction site
machinery.
The last time gas prices sky-
rocketed like this was in 2008.
Police across the Lower Mainland
noticed an increase in gas theft
then too.

Langley’s “Scooter Man” has died.
At 93 years old, Cliff Steele lived his life with his foot on the throttle and that’s how he died, said his daughter Darlene.
“Dad was a man of action and he died in action,” she said on Monday.
On Friday, after working on the scooters he was repairing, he walked from his garage to the adjoining door to his home and collapsed.
He died not long after in hos-pital, from a ruptured aneurism in his aorta.
“He died very suddenly and was in no pain,” she said.
For the past five years, the spry senior had been quietly buying used scooters and electric wheel-chairs and fixing them up to give to people in need, for free, no strings attached.
“I refurbish them and give them to people who need them. It’s a free service I’ve been offering and I’ve given away around 20 of them,” Steele told The Times in March.
With a background in mechan-ics, refurbishing scooters was a hobby and pleasure, he said.
‘He died doing what he loved’

WORKSAFE INVESTIGATION UNDERWAY
Tree faller who died in accident namedMONIQUE TAMMINGATimes Reporter
Lance Klody was the man who died in a
freak accident while falling a tree on Thurs-
day, May 31 in Aldergrove.
WorkSafe BC said it continues its inves-
tigation into why the bucket Klody was in
broke away from the boom it was attached
to, leaving the 50-year-old man to fall more
than 60 feet to the ground. He was pro-
nounced dead at the scene.
He was attempting to bring down a 130-
foot Douglas fir.
WorkSafe BC and the B.C. Coroners Ser-
vice spent sometime at the scene in the
North Otter area.
Messages from those who knew Klody
say he owned his own tree falling busi-
ness, Freelance Tree Services, based out of
Abbotsford.
He was well liked and is missed by many
friends in Langley and Abbotsford, along
with family on the Island and elsewhere.
According to his obituary, he loved his two
dogs and his brother was looking to find a
new home for them.
According to WorkSafe BC’s Megan John-
ston, investigations like these usually take
months to conclude. WorkSafe BC does not
comment on an investigation while it is still
taking place, she said.
Some comments on The Times’ website
from fellow tree fallers say Klody was likely
pushing the tree with his bucket when it
became dislodged from the boom. Pushing a
tree is common practice, said one tree faller.
In Facebook replies, some wondered if he
was wearing a safety harness. All that informa-
tion should come out of the investigation.
Board refusesto hear appeal of Garnett decision
MONIQUE TAMMINGATimes Reporter
The Langley board of education has refused to
hear R.C. Garnett parent Clint Lee’s appeal against
changing his son’s elementary school from a K-7
to a K-5 configuration.
“It doesn’t come as a big surprise,” said Lee
about the board’s decision. “In my opinion they
are afraid to debate the merits of my arguments I
have presented them, so they have refused me on
technical grounds.”
The board wrote to Lee that he didn’t file his
notice of appeal within the 30-day deadline from
when the board announced R.C. Garnett would
switch from K-7 to K-5. Any student or parent can
appeal a decision of the board that “significantly
affects the education, health or safety of the stu-
dent.” Should the board accept to hear a parent’s
appeal, the parent or parents can present a case
to the trustees.
The board wrote to Lee that his reasons for
filing an appeal late weren’t strong enough to
ignore the 30-day rule.
“To me, it shows that once again the board isn’t
putting the needs of the education of children in
front of their technicalities,” said Lee.
He said the decision is devastating but he is still
mulling over his next move. Under the School Act
he can appeal the decision, he can take the board
to Supreme Court or do nothing.
His son is in Grade Four now and will be
moved to four schools within five years. His son
will attend R.C. Garnett next year, Lynn Fripps the
next, then change over to the new middle school
for Grades 7 and 8 before switching to Mountain
Secondary.
“There is the option of moving to another juris-
diction where schooling is more stable and there
is the option of private school,” he said. He is sad-
dened but what has happened to his son’s school.
“I was thanked by a lot of parents for filing this
appeal. There is a feeling of helplessness among
parents and most have lost the fight in them,
which is unfortunate.”
His appeal argues that the board must consider
other means to alleviate overcrowding at R.C. Gar-
nett first, including the removal of non-catchment
area and non-school district children from his
son’s school.
In Lee’s appeal, he cites studies that show a
student’s academic performance is severely hin-
dered when being forced to switch schools so
many times. He also cites statistics on school bus
crashes and worries for his son’s safety as he is
bused two catchments away to school.

He was able to refur-
bish up to three scooters
a day, if given the product,
he said.
Not only did he give
the scooters away, which
cost around $4,000 to
buy new, but he also did
all the maintenance on
them for free for the dura-
tion of the equipment’s
existence.
With 20 already given
away, he was in regular
contact with most of the
people who own the
scooters now.
“A lot of these people
were housebound before,
and they get a new life
when they get a scooter,”
he said.
Steele had recently
called The Times to
say that since the article
came out about him, the
response had “been out-
standing.”
Not only were many
people willing to donate
scooters, but he had met
a man willing to do the
electrical aspects of the
scooters and another
who volunteered to pick
up and drop off the scoot-
ers that were donated or
bought by Steele.
Darlene has worked all
weekend to get all the
information about those
waiting for a scooter
from Steele.
“Everyone that was on
the wait list will get a
scooter,” she said.
But she has asked that
no more scooters be
donated.
When The Times
asked why Steele was
wanting to donate his
time for others, his reply
was simple: “When life
has been good to you, do
good for others.”
He lived life to the
fullest, even getting his
second hole in one at
Langley Golf Centre last
week.
Recently, a teacher at
an elementary school
showed the article about
Steele to his Grade 7 stu-
dents and asked them to
write a letter about what
they think of his acts of
kindness.
Luckily, he got to read
every single “heartwarm-
ing” letter just last week
when they arrived in the
mail.
“These 11-year-old kids’
words were so thought-
ful, so touching,” said Dar-
lene.
A celebration of Steele’s
life will be held at one of
his favourite places, the
Langley Seniors Centre,
on Saturday, June 16 at
2 p.m.
Bikers can gear up and explore
some of the most scenic roads
throughout Langley and the Fraser
Valley to help out two charities in
need.
Barnes Harley Davidson is invit-
ing motorcyclists of all levels to
participate in two upcoming sum-
mer charity rides — the Summer
Sizzle Charity Poker Run on June
16 and the Ride into History on
July 28.
The Summer Sizzle ride, ben-
efitting the Juvenile Diabetes
Research Foundation of Canada,
will take riders on a three-hour
route through Fort Langley that
will twist and turn out to Mission
and back through the Fraser Valley.
There will be poker stops along
the way and five observation ques-
tions that will challenge the riders
as they cruise through the route,
said Greg Huot, route co-ordinator
for the Summer Sizzle.
Advance registration is available
on Friday, June 15 at Barnes Harley
Davidson, 8859 201 St., along with
a barbeque and cruise-in night
from 5-8 p.m. Registration is also
available the day of the ride from
8-9:30 a.m.
The Ride into History, in part-
nership with the City and Town-
ship of Langley and the Kwantlen
First Nations, is an inaugural event
to raise money for the Salvation
Army’s Gateway of Hope.
The event is a celebration of
motorcycling and the History of
B.C, taking riders on a three-hour
scenic ride that will start and fin-
ish at the Fort Langley National
Historic Site. There will also be
many festival activities for the pub-
lic, including concerts by donation,
pancake breakfasts, a motorcycle
show-n-shine and a salmon bar-
beque. Events begin on Friday, July
27, with the ride on Saturday.

ADVERTORIAL
In health news these days, each story seems to bring information which confl icts with the last! But now, a study out of Germany, with
over 40,000 participants, fi nally says that coffee drinkers are at no greater risk of illnesses such as heart disease or cancer than their non-coffee drinking counterparts – and may, in fact, have a slightly lower risk of type 2 diabetes. Not enough to start drinking coffee, but enjoy it if you do.
A beverage you may want to seriously consider giving up is sodas – and not just for the reason you may think. Certainly, regular sodas are laden with empty calo-ries, but replacing them with diet sodas is not a healthy move. Replacing sodas (even diet ones) with water makes you twice as likely to lose 5% of your body weight (that proverbial 5-10 lbs). Plus, daily soda consumers are at a 43% higher risk of suffering a heart attack!
Something to increase is dietary fi bre – most of us are getting less than half of what our bodies need. Suffi cient fi bre intake is associated with a reduced risk
of cancer, obesity, diabetes and heart disease. There are 2 types of fi bre (soluble and insoluble) and both are important for optimal health. Fibre comes from a variety of sources including bran, oats, whole grains, fruits & veggies (especially their skins) and seeds.
Many people seek supplements to improve health and a commonly used one is selenium. It has been proposed that it reduces heart disease, cancer and diabetes plus a variety of other claims. However, most of us are getting more than suffi cient selenium from our diets – and excessive levels actually increase the risk of developing type 2 diabetes! No more than 60 mcg per day is needed from all sources, including diet.
Our pharmacists can help you wade through the sea of information to try to separate fact from fi ction. Weird or wacky? Bring us your questions.

NATASHA JONESTimes Reporter
Modifications to a retaining wall on the north
side of Fraser Highway have delayed the comple-
tion of the road widening project from the Langley
City border at Old Yale Road to just west of 216
Street.
Paul Cordeiro, the Township’s manager of trans-
portation engineering, said that the contractor for
the retaining wall has had to undertake modifica-
tions after it had already been erected.
Adding to the delay is the Township’s decision
to replace two culverts, and several days of con-
struction have been lost because of poor weather,
Cordeiro said.
Although the pedestrian underpass was paved in
time for the Langley Walk in early May, lighting still
needs to be installed.
Paving and the installation of concrete barriers
dividing the eastbound and westbound lanes are
likely to occur during the first two weeks of July.
The project was initially scheduled to be fin-
ished by the end of this month. It will now be
“substantially” complete by the middle of July,
Cordeiro said.
When the widened section of Fraser Highway
is complete, it will include a shared bicycle and
pedestrian pathway along the south side of Fraser
Highway. This path, reached by the sidewalk on
the south side of Fraser Highway, will lead walkers
to the upgraded pedestrian underpass which was
once used as a passageway for cows to travel under
the road from one pasture to another.
The total cost of the project is $4.2 million, half
of which is funded by TransLink.
It’s not the last of road improvement projects for
Fraser Highway. The Township is currently in the
design stage to widen the road between 228 Street
and the 23500 block.

WE SAY
No need foromnibus bill
The Conservativce government is set to pass Bill C-38, an omnibus budget bill which includes
amendments and changes to many statutes.
This has prompted a massive backlash from a number of groups, notably environmental groups. One aspect of their protest was the voluntary blacking out of a number of websites on June 4.
While some of their rhetoric is overblown, it is puzzling why a majority Conservative government feels it needs to proceed in this way. If it wishes to amend specific statutes, why not do so, without packaging a huge variety of changes in one bill?
The Conservatives got used to doing this in their five years as a minority government. It was one way to keep at least one opposition party on side — put something in the budget bill that they wanted, and they would vote for it.
It was an understandable tactic. The government had to compromise to the degree that it would propose legislation that one of its opponents would back. In fact, the Conservatives did have to go to the polls in 2008 and 2011 after it became clear that no opposition party was willing to back them any longer.
Now there is a majority government. No longer does the government have to keep one opposition party on side. And that’s fine. The parliamentary system is an adversarial one, with government and opposition on different sides of almost every issue.
That’s why such omnibus bills don’t seem to make senese. All they do is hamper the public from paying closer attention to what the government’s plans are, and at the same time, raise fears which in many cases are exaggerated or non-existent.
If the government doesn’t want to spend too much time on any given bill, it can invoke closure. There is no longer any stigma about doing so, and the public recognizes the need for the government to be able to enact its plans after there has been reasonable time for debate.
It seems that, with some moves like this omnibus budget bill, the Conservatives are deliberately provoking their opponents. While there may be a desire for political vengeance, they need to remember that their majority was granted to them by voters in 2011, only after a five-year testing period.
That majority can easily be taken away by voters in the next election.
THEY SAY
Grads face challenges
It’s grad season. High school seniors are in the final days of their formative education before moving
on to post-secondary studies, perhaps travel or maybe the work world.
Simon Fraser University, BCIT and Douglas College are holding grand ceremonies to bestow degrees and diplomas.
It’s a time of transition for students, as they emerge from the schools, teachers and friends they’ve known for so many years and step into new worlds, with new challenges, new demands.
It’s a time for them to reflect on what they’ve accomplished and to begin charting the path for the next phase of their lives.
The only thing certain is the uncertainty of what lies ahead. Economies in North America and Europe are sputtering. The booms in China and India have quieted.
Unemployment is up, wages are down, the social safety net is slowly unraveling as governments around the world can no longer sustain the cost of helping their citizens through tough times, or into retirement.
Some experts say we’re on the brink of a global recession.
But none of that will dull the gleaming smiles of those grads as they march up the aisle to receive their parchment, or diminish their pride of accomplishment.
After all, every generation of grads seems to have challenges to face, whether it’s the rising cost of education, changing technology, diminishing job markets, inflation, deflation, debt, sometimes even war.
Somehow, they persevere. Many thrive. Most will become upstanding citizens, carving out their little corner of the world.
Some will become leaders, improving everyone’s world.
For that we thank them all, and invite them into the world with open arms.
—Burnaby News Leader(Black Press)
Council should meet more oftenLong stretches between meetings cause a backup
Langley Township council mem-
bers received a substantial pay
raise in December, just after
six of them were easily re-elected,
despite (or perhaps because of) a
huge field of challengers.
New mayor Jack Froese is adjust-
ing to his position, and seems to be keeping
things moving along at council meetings. He is
accessible, open, friendly and works hard to get
along with everybody.
Members of council seem to be getting along
well. Even Councillor Kim Richter is seeing
many of her motions seconded, something that
rarely happened in earlier years. The tension of
the past term on council seems to be a thing of
the past.
One thing that seems hard to understand,
though, is the limited number of council meet-
ings. On Monday, council held its first meeting in
almost a month — the last regular meeting was
on May 14.
Because of the long interval, there were
numerous requests for delegations, a variety of
business at both afternoon and evening meet-
ings and a public hearing on several bylaws.
This means that everyone involved, and that
includes members of the public, has their time
compressed, because council has to work its
way through a lengthy and detailed agenda. This
is not fair to either councillors, staff or the pub-
lic.
Council needs to take a close look at its
meeting schedule and ensure that there are
enough meetings so it is able to consider
public business in a more deliberate manner.
Given the amount of business that built up
over the course of a month, there
should have been a council meet-
ing held in late May.
If council members are satis-
fied with the meeting schedule
and the amount of time they
have to listen to the public and
consider staff recommendations, then there
is even more reason to rescind the big pay
raises.
Do councillors really deserve almost $43,000
a year for a part-time job, when they meet 15
to 20 times per year? Yes, there are committee
meetings and community activities, but these
can hardly be considered as excessive extra
work.
Council members do attend the Federation
of Canadian Municipalities (many of them
just went off to Saskatoon) and the Union of
B.C. Municipalities conventions, but all their
expenses are paid. Many also make additional
money by serving on outside boards and com-
mittees.
There was considerable public concern over
councillors getting an almost 20 per cent raise
in December. Council is setting up a committee
to look into the way its pay raises are awarded,
but citizens aren’t holding their breath that
there will be any move to reduce those hefty
pay raises.
There should be an equal amount of con-
cern about the minimal number of meetings
of Township council. Its calendar calls for one
more meeting in June, two in July, none in
August and the first meeting of the fall season
on Sept. 10.
Does this seem like an excessive workload?

Editor: Langley Township’s debt per per-
son rose 175 per cent over last year, from
$275 per person to a whopping $759 per
person. It’s time to pull in the reins. So do
we really need to spend $500,000 on an
“extension” to a horse trail that very few
use?
Three lobby groups have considerable
influence on the majority of Township
council — the horse industry, developers
and unions. They are great at lobbying and
get their votes counted, unlike the silent
majority. The definition of a “lobby” is to
attempt to influence or sway, as a public
official toward a desired action. If we don’t
get out and vote we will end up with the
same as we have now. It will never change
and may get worse. Taxes keep going up,
but our real needs are put on the back
burner.
As a result of my letter to the editor
(published March 27), regarding budget
deliberations, along comes lobbyist Peter
Thiessen, as a delegation to council from
the Back Country Horsemen. This was on
April 11. He now added joggers, recre-
ational cyclists and dog walkers to the trail.
All this lobbying is for $500,000, which has
been approved by council to extend a trail
from 256 Street to Aldergrove Lake.
Thiessen claims the existing trail from
Campbell Park to 256 Street is a well-used
recreational corridor, popular with dog
walkers, joggers, recreational cyclists and
equestrians. I have viewed the South Lan-
gley trail at least eight times at different
times of the week, including weekends.
Each time the weather was excellent, and
combined I saw only four horses, two jog-
gers, seven recreational cyclists and three
dog walkers.
So what’s with the misinformation given
by Thiessen? I guess the taxpayer-funded
1,322-acre Campbell Valley Park just isn’t
big enough for these horse owners, who
make up less five per cent of the approxi-
mate 106,000 residents in the Township of
Langley.
The horse industry claims
to generate a huge amount
of tax dollars. Not so, when
compared to others.
For example: Thunderbird
Show Park is on 84 acres
and pays property tax of
$15,694, of which $3,810
goes towards protection
services, and $5,488 towards
schools. Thunderbird Show
Stables is on 156 acres and pays $10,570 in
property tax, with $2,840 towards protec-
tion services and $3,389 towards schools.
Not far away, at Gloucester Industrial Park,
a business on 23 acres, which by the way
employs 600 people, and has no transit
services, pays $589,849 in property taxes,
of which $160,357 goes towards protec-
tion services and $104,703 goes towards
schools. This business also pays $6,000 for
water.
In reviewing the Township’s businesses
by industry, horse-related businesses would
be among those at the bottom. The source
is the Township’s business licence database.
Most of the horse-related businesses would
be considered small business and most
small businesses pay very little tax.
Horses do not give us sustenance like
cows, chickens, turkeys, sheep, goats etc.,
and it takes huge tracts of land just to
produce enough food to feed a horse.
There are two and one half times as many
dogs as there are horses in the Township.
Over $350,000 is collected in dog licence
fees yearly. So why not license the horse
and use that income towards the trail and
towards picking up horse poop. After all,
horses are covered by the same bylaws as
dogs.
I like horses and see more horses and
riders on my front street, almost every day
— more than I’ve seen using the South Lan-
gley trail. But their owners should be more
responsible and less demanding.
Dennis Townsend,Langley
Editor: I wanted to thank Times sports
reporter Gary Ahuja for the ongoing coverage
of our local athletes. As our kids are growing
they are taking more interest in the paper, and
especially sports.
My son (11) often points out older siblings
of his friends or his sister’s friends. Just this
week he gets to point out his sister.
I have to admit that, until the last two years,
I did not really notice the sports section but
now that our children and their friends are
more involved and advancing in their sports,
it’s awesome to see them recognized. Thank
you for your continued involvement in recog-
nizing sports and its positive input into our
community.
Sandy Rolfe,Langley
Editor: In the June 7 edition, the car-
toon refers to Big Ben being renamed. I am
appalled at the lack of information and knowl-
edge displayed by the person who made
the cartoon, the editor of the paper and the
proofreaders who did not catch the glitch.
You have incorrectly assumed the tower
depicted at Westminster Abbey is known as
Big Ben. It isn’t. Big Ben refers to the large
main bell in the tower and was so named (Big
Ben). The tower itself (if it ever did have a
name) is not Big Ben. Check it out online, its
all available.
Bob Prest,Langley
Editor’s note — Mr. Prest is correct. The cartoonist was making a general reference to Big Ben, which is one of London’s best-known attractions. The bell itself is not being renamed.
GREAT SPORTS COVERAGE
BIG BEN KEEPS ITS NAME
Most police officers do a great job
Housing on farmland not good land useEditor: This is a response to Tod
McGovern’s letter (The Times, June 7)
and development on and around Trinity
Western on Agricultural Land Reserve
(ALR) and Rural Reserve land.
Daily I drive by the recently-erected
Development Proposal signs at the cor-
ner of Glover Road and Highway 10. I
shake my head in disbelief.
How could Metro, the ALR, and Town-
ship even consider turning more fertile
Fraser Valley farmland into housing? We
now have foreign investors buying up
our ‘rare’ valley farmland in huge swaths
at an alarming rate, because they see the
tremendous agricultural value in such a
rich natural endowment. They did not
have the foresight nor wisdom to save
farmland in their own countries.
Why would Langley even consider
such a development proposal on what is
historic Hudson’s Bay Company farmland,
and without a doubt some of our region’s
most beautiful natural geography?
Please tell me who on council and on
the ALR committee is for this, and they
will most certainly not be getting my
vote for a further term.
Let’s cut the crap, folks. This selfish
greedy nibbling away at the ALR and Rural
Reserve boundaries is about nothing other
than property development profit, and
who stands to make a quick buck by sacri-
ficing this land (our kids’ land) forever.
Greg Ewasiuk,Langley
Editor’s note — To answer the ques-tion, all members of Langley Township council, except Councillors Michelle Sparrow, David Davis and Kim Rich-ter, voted to allow housing on the Wall farm, the development he refers to.
Editor: Thank you for your editorial
(The Times, June 5) on the work of the
RCMP in the Angus Mitchell case.
I noticed that daily newspapers
devoted many pages to the heroic
actions of the RCMP during a very tense
day (Wednesday, May 30), when they
issued a warning about Mitchell, and
then confronted him in Maple Ridge.
Not only did these police officers from
all divisions protect the citizens from
further carnage by this individual, but
they put themselves directly in harm’s
way from a very dangerous person. They
did not use their weapons until they
were fired upon, and even then they
participated in the attempts to save this
man’s life, including calling for a life
flight helicopter.
What I didn’t see in the dailies was a
large headline expressing our gratitude
as citizens for what they did for all us
that day. I for one am so thankful that
they were able to protect us all, as the
day unfolded.
Recent news coverage has stated that
RCMP Commissioner Bob Paulson is
displeased at being hamstrung in dealing
with the few bad apples that make the
news all of the time. He clearly points
out that the RCMP Act needs to be
changed to give him the power to carry
out the actions that all of us — includ-
ing a whole lot of RCMP members —
want him to do.
I have a suggestion. Instead of publicly
bashing the RCMP as a group, what the
media and the citizens should be doing
is turning the spotlight on the Members
of Parliament who have the ability to
make these changes.
The RCMP are not the only profession-
als that have a few bad apples amongst
them, but they are likely the only profes-
sion that can’t get rid of these people
because of a law that needs to be
changed.
By all means, publicly embarrass the
RCMP member who acted inappropri-
ately, but please don’t lump all of the
amazing, hard-working people who
put their lives on the line for us, and
are there the minute we call 911. They
deserve a public thank you.

Students in Langley
struggling with basic
math skills will now
have the opportunity
to get extra, thanks to
efforts from the Lan-
gley School District
Foundation.
A total of $51,000
was raised at the sev-
enth annual Grand
Prix Gala, held at Thun-
derbird Show Park on
June 3, which will be
used to purchase “Do
the Math” kits for the
school district.
Nearly 70 per cent
of high school students
who do not graduate
from Grade 12 are pre-
vented from graduating
by poor math skills,
said Susan Cairns, exec-
utive director of the
Langley School District
Foundation.
“A lot of times what
happens is some kids
miss the concepts
early on, but it’s not
really recognized,” she
said. “They keep get-
ting passed and going
through the system
until about Grade
10. Then it becomes
clear they can’t do
math properly, they’ve
missed it along the way.
That’s quite tragic, they
can’t go on to univer-
sity programs and a
lot of times they don’t
graduate at all.”
The kits are designed
to teach these kids the
basic math concepts to
help students who have
fallen behind catch up.
Last year, money
raised at the annual
event went to fur-
nishing schools with
the online Kurzweil
software — a read-
ing, writing and study
skills program to help
students with learning
disabilities learn at the
same grade-level as
their classmates.
This year’s grand
prix event featured a
world-class horse jump-
ing competition, wine
tasting, gourmet food
and a silent auction
which raised $10,000.
“Even though it was
a little chilly, the event
went very well. People
enjoyed it, the venue
was fantastic and the
horses, wine tasting,
hors d’oeuvres and
silent auction,” Cairns
said.

Safety concerns have prompted
the Township to prohibit left turns
from 216 Street onto northbound
Glover Road.
The change is due to come into
effect today (Tuesday) when Town-
ship crews install the signs. Crews
have already paved and painted lines
to denote the change.
As well, 25 metres of shoulder
width will be added to Glover Road
south from 216 Street to accommo-
date right-turning vehicles.
The junction of 216 Street and
Glover Road lies north of the main
intersection of 216 Street/Crush
Crescent/Glover Road, which is con-
trolled by a traffic signal.
That intersection is not affected by
the change.
Paul Cordeiro, the Township’s man-
ager of transportation engineering,
said that the change was prompted
by concerns from Transport Canada
over vehicles backing up over the
railway line that run parallel to Glover
Road.
Transport Canada relayed those
concerns to both the Township and
the Ministry of Transportation, he
said.
There is very little distance between
the tracks and the road.
According to Transport Canada,
with the volume of traffic on Glover
Road, there is little opportunity for a
vehicle to get off the track when a
train approaches.
Cordeiro stressed that left turn
movements from Glover Road to 216
Street are not affected.
No more left turns
onto Glover at 216Traffic pattern change, which was brought on
by safety concerns, comes into effect today

FRANK BUCHOLTZTimes Reporter
Many people and organiza-
tions in Langley care about the
environment, and are doing
something to preserve it. That
message came through loud and
clear in the raft of nominations
for the 2012 Langley Environ-
mental Hero awards.
The winners were announced
Saturday at Fort Langley National
Historic Park, where they partici-
pated in the planting of a tree to
help replenish the Fort’s historic
orchard.
Individual winner was Natal
Cicuto, who is a volunteer with
Yorkson Water Stewardship Com-
mittee. He has worked closely
with the developers and contrac-
tors of a massive development
on 80 Avenue in Willoughby to
preserve the quality of Yorkson
Creek. Gemco, B and B Con-
tracting and McElhanney were
named runner-up in the busi-
ness and organization category,
for their sensitive work on the
development.
Individual runner-up was Mike
Pearson, who has championed
protection of two endangered
fish species, the Nooksack Dace
and Salish Sucker, both of which
live in Langley streams.
Business and organizational
winner was Heather Jenkins of 1
Fish, 2 Fish in Langley City, who
has championed wild fish stocks
and also supports Nicomekl
Enhancement Society.
Bob Puls, who has been
involved in numerous Langley
conservation efforts and is presi-
dent of Langley Field Naturalists,
was given a lifetime achievement
award. He has been actively pro-
moting environmental causes in
Langley for more than 30 years.
Youth winner was Deven
Azevedo, who began a compost-
ing program at Langley Fine
Arts School. Honourable men-
tion went to Maddie Millsip of
Nicomekl Enhancement Society.
See www.langleytimes.com for more details.

Energy outlook changing,Hydro report shows
In February, this column
asked the question: “Are
B.C.’s greenhouse gas reduc-
tion targets history?”
The answer is contained in a
new draft plan from BC Hydro
on how to meet future power
demand. And while it’s not
explicitly stated, the answer is
yes.
The draft plan was released
in May for discussion pur-
poses, but so far there hasn’t
been much discussion. This
is surprising, given some of
the recommendations, such
as firing up the Burrard Ther-
mal natural gas power plant
more often and buying fossil
fuel power from the North
American market to keep up
to demand.
The plan confirms a few
things that have been evident
for a while. Dreams of export-
ing B.C. hydroelectric power
are gone for the foreseeable
future. And with mining ramp-
ing up along with natural gas
development and population
growth, BC Hydro now proj-
ects electricity demand could
rise by 50 per cent over the
next 20 years.
The emergence of huge shale
gas sources in B.C. and across
the United States has changed
the North American energy
picture dramatically, as U.S. elec-
tricity producers replace coal
by burning cheaper and cleaner
gas to ramp up power produc-
tion.
B.C. is losing gas market share
in the U.S., its only export cus-
tomer for heating fuel and elec-
tricity use.
Former premier Gordon
Campbell’s climate goals offi-
cially remain in place: 33 per
cent greenhouse gas reduction
by 2020 and a whopping 80
per cent by 2050. If the gas
boom proceeds as planned, B.C.
domestic emissions will not be
down, but up considerably by
2020.
Premier Christy Clark has a
new target for 2020: three lique-
fied natural gas production lines
feeding high-pressure tankers at
Kitimat, for export to Asia. Not
only will B.C. need to buy gas-
fired power from outside the
province to keep up to indus-
trial and residential demand,
but the natural gas industry
will need its own new gas-fired
electricity to produce LNG for
export.
Natural gas passed forestry
as B.C.’s top resource revenue
source many years ago. In 2005,
the volatile gas price spiked
up and produced $1 billion in
windfall profits that allowed the
B.C. government to buy a rare
period of public sector labour
peace through the 2010 Olym-
pics.
Now a glut of shale gas has
pushed the North American
price down from its historic
range of $4 to $6 per thousand
cubic feet to about $2.40.
Despite that low price, gas
producers in B.C. are going flat
out to develop the Horn River
and Montney shale gas deposits
in northeast B.C.
I asked David Pryce, vice-
president of the Canadian Asso-
ciation of Petroleum Producers,
why so much gas is being devel-
oped now. He said producers
have made huge investments in
B.C. shale gas drilling rights, and
are in an international race to
supply LNG to Asian countries
where the price is currently
four times higher than in North
America.
Whatever the domestic price,
B.C. gas producers have to
show LNG investors such as
Mitsubishi and Korea Gas that
they can fill a steady procession
of LNG tankers at a competitive
rate.
If LNG doesn’t fly here, B.C.’s
gas export market soon evapo-
rates. Currently gas producers
pay about $400 million a year in
royalties, and that much again to
buy up shale gas drilling rights.
The industry already employs
about 12,000 workers in B.C.
The B.C. government has little
choice but to redefine its cli-
mate targets. Instead of cutting
domestic emissions, it will try
to take credit for displacing coal
power in Asia.
Fortunately, B.C.’s main coal
exports are for high-grade coal
used in steel-making.

Hefty fine for serving minorsNew B.C. liquor regulations
include a $575 fine for adults
who buy alcohol for under-aged
drinkers, or serve them in restau-
rants and pubs.
The fines apply to serving
staff who fail to check identifi-
cation, in addition to penalties
already in place for licensed
establishments that serve
under-aged drinkers. Those
penalties range from fines of
$7,500 to $10,000 or a licence
suspension of 10 to 15 days.
Parents and guardians who pro-
vide alcohol to their under-19 chil-
dren are exempt from the tickets.
“These changes give police
and liquor inspectors another
tool to make it harder for minors
to get alcohol,” said Rich Cole-
man, minister responsible for
liquor and gambling policy.
The new tickets are part of an
effort by the B.C. government
to streamline the court system,
after imposing new administra-
tive penalties for impaired driv-
ing. For supplying alcohol to
minors, police previously handed
out court appearance notices.
The new tickets can still be
disputed in court, but the onus
is on the person ticketed to dis-
pute or pay it.
B.C. Restaurant and Foodser-
vices Association president Ian
Tostenson said the organization
supports the new penalties.

NEWS& viewsviewsGeneral Manager’s Message
Another fantastic fi scal year at Otter Co-op has come and gone, and with it the Annual General Meeting. At our meeting, members heard of the fi nancial results for the 2011 fi scal year ending March 3rd that included the following:
Strong community support from our members in the communities in which we serve, grew this organization to sales of a fantastic $154,916,678, this is an increase of 21.5% over the previous year. Bottom line savings grew to $8,189,619; or 5.3% of sales, which is also a signifi cant increase over the previous years’ 3.7% of sales. Over $5.3 million of the savings to be allocated back to you, our retail members. Some division results include our food sales in the Retail Centre remaining fl at throughout 2011. Our Pharmacy division experienced a nice increase in sales of 7.9% over the previous year. General Merchandise, which includes our hardware and family fashions, realized a decrease of 6.3% in sales due to the economy, poor weather, and cross border shopping. In Feed, we ended the year with an increase of 21.4%, and bulk petroleum sales increased an incredible 65.1%. Our Pitt Meadows location had a 7.5% increase in sales over the previous year; and our gas bar division continued to play a signifi cant role in our sales growth with an increase of 15.1% over 2010. A couple of highlights of the past year over and above the fantastic results achieved throughout our organization, include the opening of a new Produce Market and Convenience Store in Abbotsford, that is projected to have sales this coming year of $1.5 million. Otter Co-op also opened a stand-alone pharmacy in Abbotsford last fall that is projected to add additional sales of a half a million dollars this coming year. These two locations created new job opportunities for approximately a dozen people.
We continued with our plan to re-develop and rebuild our 248th gas bar and cardlock location, and hope to have that project underway by the end of this year. Development plans are underway for a new gas bar and convenience store on Highway 11, between Abbotsford and Mission. And most recently, Otter has purchased 5.36 acres of industrial land in Chilliwack, for the construction of a 6 pump, 6 lane gas bar and convenience store; an 8 pump, 7 lane cardlock facility; a bulk plant with 20 – 148,000 litre storage tanks, an oil warehouse and offi ce building, including space for a tenant. This project is expected to create additional sales for Otter Co-op in excess of $30 million per year.
In order to effectively compete in today’s rapidly changing marketplace, we must continue to plan for the future. Every year the requirements and expectations of our membership increases. We need to determine what is essential and then set priorities for the prosperity of Otter Co-op. The reality is about continuing on a track record of fi scal responsibility balanced with sound marketing objectives, to ensure that we have continuous development and growth of our employees and the Co-op. Our organization is rooted in history, is relevant and revered today, and ready for tomorrow. So there you have it in a quick overview; where we’ve been last year, and some of the exciting plans for the future. Here’s looking forward to another record year at Otter Co-op!

Frank Hauzer President
President’s Message:As we begin a new year in 2012, Otter Co-op is proud to be celebrating 90 years of success in the Lower Mainland. And what a great year to be celebrating this milestone, as the United Nations has proclaimed 2012 to be the International Year of Co-operatives. Our members can be proud of the rich history of Otter Co-opOur continued success is indeed a co-operative team celebration. It can be credited to you, our loyal members purchasing goods and services; both past and present. As well, the success is part of a great effort on our staff’s part, in providing that great, friendly service that members have
come to expect and enjoy. And also credit to the management and board of past and present, in setting goals and directions for the Co-ops’ success for years to come. A couple of highlights that I am especially proud of when talking about Otter, is the fact that all profi ts generated by the Co-op stay right here in our communities, as opposed to going off to some head offi ce in Toronto or outside the country. Whether it be profi ts allocated to members in equity and cash back, or to the new and upgraded facilities we are able to invest in throughout the Lower Mainland, or to the literally hundreds of groups and organizations that Otter provides scholarships, support, and sponsorship of. Did you know that for many years Otter Co-op has donated well in excess of $130,000 a year to the many different community groups that we serve? This is so exciting to be a part of such a successful and community oriented company. Other positives for me include the fact that Otter Co-op is such a diverse company, with business opportunities in feed, food, hardware, petroleum, pharmacy, and car washes. We also have a leased facility with Tim Hortons. It is this diversifi cation that positions us well for the future, and helps in “not keeping all our eggs in one basket” in this challenging economic time. There is no doubt that Otter Co-op has a bright future, and I am honored to be your president during this anniversary year. Yours Co-operatively on behalf of the Board of Directors,
Frank Hauzer OTTER CO-OP PRESIDENT

lots of fun!
On behalf of everyone at Otter Co-op we would like to thank Gerrie Wise (7 years service) and Patrick Freeman (1 year service) as they complete their terms on the Otter Co-op Board. Both very dedicated members of the Otter Co-op Board each bringing their own qualities to compliment the board.Gerrie completed all the FCL Courses offered and achieved the Level Two Directors Certifi cate. During her seven years Gerrie served as Member Relations Chair, on the Finance Committee and as the Board Secretary. Gerrie has also commuted from Mayne Island where she and her husband moved upon retiring four years ago. Even though Patrick was only with the Otter Board for one year he came with a strong background in FCL training as he had completed all levels of FCL board management programs, was a past President of Pitt Meadows Consumers Co-op as well as
the District 4 Regional Director for FCL. Thank you both for all your commitment to Otter Co-op and we wish you all the best!
With Sincere Thanks!

Front row( L to R) Maureen Minot, Marilyn Gryseels, Beppie Henry, Kelly Reid & Hailey Reid. Back row( L to R) Merna Richter and her friend Gord, Tim Gagner & Terry Koffman.
The 2012 Relay for life was an experience I won’t soon forget. My daughter Hailey & I participated in this event for the fi rst time and can speak for the both of us when I say this event has changed the way we look at this horrible disease. Neither of us really knew what to expect but were up for the challenge to stay up all night and raise money for such a good cause. Our team ( The Otter Trotters) consisted of Maureen Minot (Team Captain), Marilyn Gryseels, Beppie Henry, Terry Koffman, Tim Gagner, Merna Richter and her other half Gord, my daughter Hailey and myself. To date we have raised $4,170.00 and would like to send a BIG thank you to the Otter Co-op for their generous donation to our team $2500.00 which got our fundraising efforts in motion.Our gracious Emcee for the evening was Bev Dornan who did an outstanding job informing us of the evening’s events. The opening ceremony was inspiring as the survivors gathered around the stage and preceded onto the track for the survivors lap. The Fire guard escorted the survivors around the oval as the yellow T Shirts followed in suit. As they rounded our tent we clapped and cheered them on
as if they were celebrities and in my mind they all were. I fought back the tears as I thought of how many will not win their battles and won’t be joining us for the future relays. At 10pm the Bagpiper (also a survivor) led the way playing “Amazing Grace” as the rest of us joined in on the lap to celebrate the survivors and refl ect on our fallen loved ones. I remember counting my blessings the entire length of that lap and for the rest of that evening. The lighting of the luminaries on the track and in the grand stand was an awesome sight. The overhead lights were turned off for a few minutes so we could all clearly see the words “HOPE” and “CURE” spelled out. Walking the track with my teammates on and off all night didn’t seem like such a hard job when I thought about the people battling for their lives every day. As the night went on a few of us grabbed a quick cat nap, caught a second wind and continued on to our night’s journey. The weather held out and provided a dry event which I was also very thankful for.

Another fantastic fi scal year at Otter Co-op has come and gone, and with it the Annual General Meeting. At our meeting, members heard of the fi nancial results for the 2011 fi scal year ending March 3rd that included the following:
Strong community support from our members in the communities in which we serve, grew this organization to sales of a fantastic $154,916,678, this is an increase of 21.5% over the previous year. Bottom line savings grew to $8,189,619; or 5.3% of sales, which is also a signifi cant increase over the previous years’ 3.7% of sales. Over $5.3 million of the savings to be allocated back to you, our retail members. Some division results include our food sales in the Retail Centre remaining fl at throughout 2011. Our Pharmacy division experienced a nice increase in sales of 7.9% over the previous year. General Merchandise, which includes our hardware and family fashions, realized a decrease of 6.3% in sales due to the economy, poor weather, and cross border shopping. In Feed, we ended the year with an increase of 21.4%, and bulk petroleum sales increased an incredible 65.1%. Our Pitt Meadows location had a 7.5% increase in sales over the previous year; and our gas bar division continued to play a signifi cant role in our sales growth with an increase of 15.1% over 2010. A couple of highlights of the past year over and above the fantastic results achieved throughout our organization, include the opening of a new Produce Market and Convenience Store in Abbotsford, that is projected to have sales this coming year of $1.5 million. Otter Co-op also opened a stand-alone pharmacy in Abbotsford last fall that is projected to add additional sales of a half a million dollars this coming year. These two locations created new job opportunities for approximately a dozen people.
We continued with our plan to re-develop and rebuild our 248th gas bar and cardlock location, and hope to have that project underway by the end of this year. Development plans are underway for a new gas bar and convenience store on Highway 11, between Abbotsford and Mission. And most recently, Otter has purchased 5.36 acres of industrial land in Chilliwack, for the construction of a 6 pump, 6 lane gas bar and convenience store; an 8 pump, 7 lane cardlock facility; a bulk plant with 20 – 148,000 litre storage tanks, an oil warehouse and offi ce building, including space for a tenant. This project is expected to create additional sales for Otter Co-op in excess of $30 million per year.
In order to effectively compete in today’s rapidly changing marketplace, we must continue to plan for the future. Every year the requirements and expectations of our membership increases. We need to determine what is essential and then set priorities for the prosperity of Otter Co-op. The reality is about continuing on a track record of fi scal responsibility balanced with sound marketing objectives, to ensure that we have continuous development and growth of our employees and the Co-op. Our organization is rooted in history, is relevant and revered today, and ready for tomorrow. So there you have it in a quick overview; where we’ve been last year, and some of the exciting plans for the future. Here’s looking forward to another record year at Otter Co-op!

Frank Hauzer President
President’s Message:As we begin a new year in 2012, Otter Co-op is proud to be celebrating 90 years of success in the Lower Mainland. And what a great year to be celebrating this milestone, as the United Nations has proclaimed 2012 to be the International Year of Co-operatives. Our members can be proud of the rich history of Otter Co-opOur continued success is indeed a co-operative team celebration. It can be credited to you, our loyal members purchasing goods and services; both past and present. As well, the success is part of a great effort on our staff’s part, in providing that great, friendly service that members have
come to expect and enjoy. And also credit to the management and board of past and present, in setting goals and directions for the Co-ops’ success for years to come. A couple of highlights that I am especially proud of when talking about Otter, is the fact that all profi ts generated by the Co-op stay right here in our communities, as opposed to going off to some head offi ce in Toronto or outside the country. Whether it be profi ts allocated to members in equity and cash back, or to the new and upgraded facilities we are able to invest in throughout the Lower Mainland, or to the literally hundreds of groups and organizations that Otter provides scholarships, support, and sponsorship of. Did you know that for many years Otter Co-op has donated well in excess of $130,000 a year to the many different community groups that we serve? This is so exciting to be a part of such a successful and community oriented company. Other positives for me include the fact that Otter Co-op is such a diverse company, with business opportunities in feed, food, hardware, petroleum, pharmacy, and car washes. We also have a leased facility with Tim Hortons. It is this diversifi cation that positions us well for the future, and helps in “not keeping all our eggs in one basket” in this challenging economic time. There is no doubt that Otter Co-op has a bright future, and I am honored to be your president during this anniversary year. Yours Co-operatively on behalf of the Board of Directors,
Frank Hauzer OTTER CO-OP PRESIDENT

lots of fun!
On behalf of everyone at Otter Co-op we would like to thank Gerrie Wise (7 years service) and Patrick Freeman (1 year service) as they complete their terms on the Otter Co-op Board. Both very dedicated members of the Otter Co-op Board each bringing their own qualities to compliment the board.Gerrie completed all the FCL Courses offered and achieved the Level Two Directors Certifi cate. During her seven years Gerrie served as Member Relations Chair, on the Finance Committee and as the Board Secretary. Gerrie has also commuted from Mayne Island where she and her husband moved upon retiring four years ago. Even though Patrick was only with the Otter Board for one year he came with a strong background in FCL training as he had completed all levels of FCL board management programs, was a past President of Pitt Meadows Consumers Co-op as well as
the District 4 Regional Director for FCL. Thank you both for all your commitment to Otter Co-op and we wish you all the best!
With Sincere Thanks!
Gerrie Wise - 7 years service Patrick Freeman - 1 year service

The 2012 Relay for life was an experience I won’t soon forget. My daughter Hailey & I participated in this event for the fi rst time and can speak for the both of us when I say this event has changed the way we look at this horrible disease. Neither of us really knew what to expect but were up for the challenge to stay up all night and raise money for such a good cause. Our team ( The Otter Trotters) consisted of Maureen Minot (Team Captain), Marilyn Gryseels, Beppie Henry, Terry Koffman, Tim Gagner, Merna Richter and her other half Gord, my daughter Hailey and myself. To date we have raised $4,170.00 and would like to send a BIG thank you to the Otter Co-op for their generous donation to our team $2500.00 which got our fundraising efforts in motion.Our gracious Emcee for the evening was Bev Dornan who did an outstanding job informing us of the evening’s events. The opening ceremony was inspiring as the survivors gathered around the stage and preceded onto the track for the survivors lap. The Fire guard escorted the survivors around the oval as the yellow T Shirts followed in suit. As they rounded our tent we clapped and cheered them on
as if they were celebrities and in my mind they all were. I fought back the tears as I thought of how many will not win their battles and won’t be joining us for the future relays. At 10pm the Bagpiper (also a survivor) led the way playing “Amazing Grace” as the rest of us joined in on the lap to celebrate the survivors and refl ect on our fallen loved ones. I remember counting my blessings the entire length of that lap and for the rest of that evening. The lighting of the luminaries on the track and in the grand stand was an awesome sight. The overhead lights were turned off for a few minutes so we could all clearly see the words “HOPE” and “CURE” spelled out. Walking the track with my teammates on and off all night didn’t seem like such a hard job when I thought about the people battling for their lives every day. As the night went on a few of us grabbed a quick cat nap, caught a second wind and continued on to our night’s journey. The weather held out and provided a dry event which I was also very thankful for. I heard past stories from our seasoned teammates about cold, rainy past relays and was glad to have my fi rst experience a dry
one.It has been a long time since I watched the sun come up and welcomed it’s warmth into my cold, stiff bones. The sound of the birds singing at 4am was a wonderful way to start the dawn of a new day which I started by praying a cure for Cancer would come sooner than later so my family and friends would be able to enjoy these sights & sounds until their true time to leave this earth arrives.Kelly Reid

26 • The Langley Times • Tuesday, June 12, 2012
It’s amazing to think that just a year ago I
was sitting amongst the crowd of the annual
meeting, anxiously waiting to be welcomed
onto the board, unknowing of just how much
I would learn. The knowledge that now fi lls
my head is immense. Whether it is about
Co-operative values, formal business structure,
spreadsheets of numbers in which I am still a
little uneasy, or simply good business practice,
the amount of knowledge cannot be defi ned
by the single year that it was crammed into my
head.
The way in which I was welcomed to the
board with open arms is very symbolic of the
experience the Co-op has provided me. The
board was accommodating without treating me
as a child and resulted in an environment that
opened up my eyes to knowledge that will last
a lifetime. I remember my fi rst meeting when
we were looking over fi nancial spreadsheets,
playing “where’s Waldo” with each number
being mentioned. This environment forced me
to learn quickly and eventually the numbers
began making sense. The formalities of the
meetings were completely alien to me, but the
effi ciency of such a democratic system is clearly
evident and will provide a clear understanding
as I step out of school into the real world.
After seeing the core values of the Co-op, I have
realized what an honour this has truly been. The
Co-op’s success is wholly attributed to its care
for customers. In a world of major corporations,
it is tough to compete. On my fi rst ever
business trip to the fall conference I learned
of the collective network of co-operatives that
exist and work together to survive. It was a
large scale version of any co-operative, everyone
worked together for the best interest of this
community of Co-ops, just as the member’s
of Otter are in the best interest of their
community.
It is what sets Otter Co-op apart that will keep
it strong, loyalty to the community and the
resulting community loyalty. Now on its 90th
anniversary, the Otter Co-op is in a time of
opportunity and expansion and a very exciting
time to be on the board and a member. I
cannot wait to see what the Co-op will have
grown to in 5, 10, 20 years. I have no idea what
it will have grown to, though I know it will be
thriving larger than it has ever been.
The Co-op has provides many opportunities
to young people, whether it be in the
abundance of scholarships given each year,
or the invaluably experience which I have
been granted. I cannot put into words how
worthwhile it has been. I cannot imagine there
being anything comparable to this experience
and all that it has provided me. Many doors
have been opened for me and I now know a
little more about what lies beyond each one.
It saddens me that there are no more that will
be able to receive this opportunity, although I
understand that it is in the best interest of the
board that it is done away with.
I am now more excited than ever to venture
further into life, having developed an interest
in business that will inevitably bring me back to
this unique world and the excitement it holds.
I must thank the Directors and the Co-op as
a whole for everything they have provided so
graciously. Who knows? Maybe one day I’ll be
back on the board.

MONIQUE TAMMINGATimes Reporter
After Lewis Bennett got in the only
fight of his life on the soccer field of
North Otter Elementary, his principal
warned that if he continued his violent
ways, he would end up in an Asian gang.
The shocking comment was made to
him nearly two decades ago, but it was
only recently that the filmmaker decided to
explore the idea that he might — perhaps
— belong to an Asian gang and just not
know it.
Bennett along with fellow writer/
filmmaker Callum MacLeod returned
to Langley from their current home of
Vancouver to make a short documentary
exploring the topic of gang life in Langley
in the 1990s.
The film features different elements of
what makes Langley unique, from the Fort
Langley Historic National site and Greater
Vancouver Zoo (where even the painted
animals look depressed) to the Langley
Ukulele Ensemble.
It also spends time in Bennett’s family
home in Langley where he shares a
hilarious conversation with his mother,
including asking her if she ever paid for
Chinese food with sex.
“My poor mother, she’s had to endure
a lot of sh** from my brother and I,” said
Bennett.
To make the film work Bennett insisted
on bringing in the
Grade 7 student he
fought all those years
ago.
“I tried to find him
on Facebook and
messaged him but
didn’t hear,” he said.
The men
reconnected through
a friend of a friend
and Bennett’s one-time
nemisis agreed to be
part of the film, so the
two met at their former
elementary school.
The 10 minute short
ends up being a laugh-
out-loud, nostalgic piece of art.
Bennett, for no better reason other than
to keep his skills sharp and to test himself
(and likely his sanity), has committed to
creating 12 short films — one for each
month of 2012.
“Well I can’t quit now and look like an
idiot,” said the D.W. Poppy Secondary grad.
But for every “smarmy” moment of
hilarity, he adds a serious element to each
film.
In this documentary, he talks to a police
officer who specialized in gangs in the
1990s as well as a young outreach worker
who is a former gang
member.
“I’m always trying to
tell real stories with a
goofy element,” he said.
Among the films he’s
made so far is one that
finds silliness in the feet
that have been washing
up on the shores of
Vancouver.
That piece took a
surprisingly dark turn
into the alleyways of
the Downtown Eastside
and a look at all the
missing women.
Shot in HD on a
Cannon 5D DSL and edited using Final
Cut Pro, the films have an impressive
professional quality.
Filmmaking is Bennett’s passion. But so
far, it doesn’t pay the bills.
“Our girlfriends are covering our budget,”
laughs Bennett.
He said he did a bit of landscaping
last week and tries to do some Internet
marketing work to pay some bills.
With a gift for comedic timing and
creating films that truly grab the viewer
from start to stop, Bennett would love to
be able to be a filmmaker full-time.
“I’d love to work on longer projects,
mixing documentary with made up stuff is
kind of my thing,” he said.
“I like writing and directing.’
MacLeod said he makes films to make
people laugh.
“Anytime I get paid for making people
laugh, then you are winning,” said MacLeod,
who is a correspondent for CFL.ca.
The two said their film Asian Gangs was
a “true collaboration.”
Bennett’s latest film introduces a Port
Kells deli shop owner dubbed by his
customers as the “sandwich Nazi.”
The Lebanese-born sandwich maker
requires that all his customers say please,
often decides what is going on sandwiches
and a ringing cellphone gets you kicked
out of his shop.
This short comes with a big warning,
said Bennett.
“Sal (the sandwich maker) is really, really
lewd and there is nudity.
“He is a very interesting guy though,” he
said.
“Our three days spent with him will not
soon be forgotten.”

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

BRENDA ANDERSONTimes Reporter
Langley’s ‘Dean of Art’ has died.
Well-known local artist Al Colton
passed away in his sleep on Thursday,
June 7 at Langley Memorial Hospital.
The 90-year-old painter, whose
images have hung everywhere from
the Langley Centennial Museum to
the National Gallery in Ottawa, found
much of his inspiration in the his-
tory and natural beauty of the region,
often painting local heritage build-
ings and landscapes in his distinctly
colourful impressionist style.
And if one wanted to know how
the artist felt about a particular sub-
ject, they need only flip through one
of his many sketchbooks, where Col-
ton imbued his artwork with social
commentary — often, but not always,
using humour to make his point.
Colton was a prolific painter, and
since 1998 many of his pieces have
hung in the Birthplace of B.C. Gal-
lery in Fort Langley, while literally
hundreds of others have filled the
Langley City home he shared with his
wife and fellow artist, Esther.
Colton was introduced to gallery
owners Brenda and Kurt Alberts by
Langley historian Warren Sommer,
who was collaborating with Kurt on
a book to commemorate the Town-
ship’s 125th anniversary. Several of
Colton’s paintings are featured prom-
inently in the softcover book.
During the time that Langley 125 – A Celebration was being compiled,
many of Colton’s paintings were
stored in Kurt’s office.
“His work was so impressionistic,
it took me time to get used to it,”
said Kurt.
But looking at them every day, the
style grew on him. “I ended up fall-
ing in love with his paintings. You
can always see something new (in
them).”
Born in Toronto in 1921, Colton
began his career as an artist with his
studies at the Ontario College of Art
in the mid 1930s.
When the war broke out, shortly
after his 18th birthday, he joined the
air force and spent three years as a
flight instructor on the B.C. coast.
Working with charcoal on news-
print, he sketched portraits of other
servicemen for $5 apiece.
It was during this time at Boundary
Bay that Colton met Esther. She and a
girlfriend came by for an art lesson,
and within a week, he had proposed.
They were married for 67 years and
had two children.
“One thing that came through with
Al was his love for Esther,” said Kurt.
“They were real love birds.”
After the war, Colton taught art
at both the elementary and second-
ary school levels before taking a job
as the art co-ordinator for the city
of Vancouver and then finishing up
his working life as a postal clerk in
Langley.
Sixty years later, Colton’s former
students still drop by the Fort Langley
gallery occasionally to share memo-
ries of their teacher, said Kurt, with
one woman even bringing a small
drawing the instructor had made to
demonstrate use of perspective.
“He obviously had quite an impact
on his students,” said Kurt.
Colton had been in extended care
at LMH for almost a year when he
passed away. Even in the last months,
he stayed busy drawing in his sketch
book.
“Painting kept him going. I think
he lived longer because of that,” said
Kurt.
“He truly lived his whole life to
paint,” agreed Brenda Alberts.
“His whole life represented a pas-
sion for art.”
Colton passed that passion on to
her and to the other artists who
knew him, she said.
“He had such a great sense of
humour, he was very witty. He taught
me a lot about what I do.”
“There’s not one more thing that I
think he needed to do,” said Brenda.
“He made use of every moment.”

Langley’s Tyler Seib will be at the helm
when the next production from Surrey
Little Theatre hits the stage in the fall.
Catch Me If You Can will run Oct. 25
to Nov. 17 at the little playhouse on 182
Street. But between now and then there
will be plenty to do — not least, casting the
production.
Auditions for the mystery/comedy will
be held on Monday, June 18 and Tuesday,
June 19 at 7 p.m. at Surrey Little Theatre,
7027 184 St.
No appointment is necessary, just come
on out on either one of the two nights
and read from script selections that will
be available in the lobby. Five men ages 35
to 65 and two women ages 25 to 50 will
be cast with rehearsals beginning early
September.
As well as directing the fall production,
Seib, who is currently serving as president
of SLT, will also offer technical instruction
at the upcoming Youth Summer Day Camp
for aspiring theatre folk, aged 12 to 18.
The camp will run June 16 to 20, from 10
a.m. to 5 p.m. each day. Classes will rotate
throughout the five days, with three instruc-
tors facilitating the week, one in each of the
three categories, drama, backstage/design
and technical theatre.
Guest Instructors specializing in acting
techniques and make-up application will
also be brought in to round out the week’s
lessons. It will all lead up to a final produc-
tion, presented for parents and the com-
munity. Lunches are included in the $125
registration.
Contact Brigitte Seib at brigitte.seib@sur-

or go to www.surreylittletheatre.com for

On the phone with the
owners of her horse, Hawley
Bennett-Awad broke into tears.
She was on the phone with
Terry and Linda Paine, shortly
after being nominated for the
Canadian eventing team for this
summer’s Olympic Games in
London.
Bennett-Awad has been
chosen to ride
for Canada
aboard her
horse Gin &
Juice.
“I just started
crying. There
have been so
many ups and
downs along
the way,” said
Bennett-Awad,
on the phone with The Times
on Monday. She was on her
way back to California after
competing at the Bromont
CCI*** eventing show at the
Bromont Olympic Equestrian
Park in Quebec.
Bennett-Awad placed fourth.
The competition also served
as the selection trials for the
Canadian eventing team.
Eventing is an equestrian
sport which comprises
dressage, cross-country and
show jumping.
“This has always been the
goal and to finally be told that
yes, you are going, it is a big
relief,” she said.
Bennett-Awad, a 35-year-old
from Langley, will be making
her second appearance at
the Olympics, having also
represented Canada in Athens
in 2004.
She helped Canada finish
12th in the team competition
but did not place in the
individual event.
“That was my first time, so I
was super excited to go,” she
said.
“The excitement of not being
my first time is gone. I have a
really good horse and am more
experienced.
“I want a top 10 finish (but)
it would be amazing to get up
on the podium.”
While Bennett-Awad was
chasing her dream this
weekend in Quebec, she did
so with mixed
feelings.
“For me, it
was a very
emotional
weekend
because I
had to miss
my brother’s
wedding,” she
said about the
nuptials of her
older brother, Mike Bennett and
his fiancee Jessica.
“It was really hard because I
am so close to him.
“He is my best friend and has
been my father figure for the
last 16 or 17 years, so it was
really tough to not be there and
be a part of that.”
With that weighing on her
mind, she said the weekend
was one of the toughest
competitions she had endured
mentally.
While the weekend may have
been tough, Bennett-Awad is
glad it is over and the team has
been nominated.
The official team, featuring
five riders plus an alternate,
will be named on July 5.
“Now the pressure is off and
you can relax and focus on your
training,” she said.
“You know that you are going
and can work on your own
fitness as well as your horse’s.”
Bennett-Awad will continue
working — she operates
Hawley Bennett Eventing out
of KingsWay Farms in southern
California — for the rest of
the month and then leave for
training camp in Virginia on
July 1.
The Canadian team departs
for London on July 9.
The Olympic Games run
from July 27 to August 12.
Disappointed when she didn’t
qualify for the 2008 Games
in Beijing, Bennett-Awad is
thrilled for another crack at the
Olympics.
The track will be hilly and
long for the cross-country,
“You need a horse that will
be fast and quick and that is
exactly what she (Gin & Juice)
is.”
Bennett-Awad is no stranger
to international success, helping
Canada win silver at the World
Equestrian Games in 2010 and
the another silver medal at the
Pan American Games in 2011.
The silver at the World
Equestrian Games was Canada’s
first medal at a major world
equestrian championship since
1978 and qualified Canada for
the 2012 Olympics.
She thanked her husband,
Gamal Awad, her mom, Gerry
Bennett, and the rest of her
family and friends.
“They are the people who
have been through the good
and the bad,” she said.
“I know who they are.
“You don’t get to this spot
without good a good support
team of owners, grooms,
sponsors.
“I am very, very lucky I have
a good group of people around
me and am thankful for that.”

While the team is off
to its best start ever, that
did not stop the Langley
Junior Thunder lacrosse
squad from making a
coaching change.
Prior to their 9-5
victory over the New
Westminster Junior
Salmonbellies on June
7 at the Langley Events
Centre, head coach Dave
Wilfong was replaced by
Jake Elliott.
“It was apparent
that the coaching staff
and our management
was not on the same
page in terms of player
personnel,” said Thunder
president and governor
Joe Willmott.
“There was nothing
wrong with what
they were doing as a
coaching staff. It was
philosophy and friction
and the general manager
decided it was time to
make a change.”
Wilfong was in his first
year as the Jr. Thunder
coach and the team was
off to a 5-5 start in the
B.C. Junior A Lacrosse
League. The team has
started the season 0-4
before bouncing back to
win seven — including
Thursday’s game and
a 13-10 victory on
Saturday over Nanaimo
— of their next eight
games.
Two of his Wilfong’s
assistant coaches,
Rob Dalzell and Troy
Margetson, also stepped
down.
Dan Lewis remained
on as an assistant and
will be joined by Peter
Tellis.
Elliott has seven years
coaching experience
at the junior and
intermediate levels in
western Canada.
He also works as the
play-by-play voice of
the National Lacrosse
League’s Minnesota
Swarm and as the team’s
director of western
scouting.
Following this past
season, he was named
the winner of the Tom
Borrelli Award as the
NLL media person of the
year.
He takes over a
Thunder squad which
returned largely the
same group as the one in
2011 which qualified for
the post-season for the
first time in six years.
The victory over the
’Bellies marked the
return of 2011 MVP
Reegan Comeault, who
just completed his
freshman season at Ohio
State. Comeault had
three goals and three
assists in the 9-5 victory.
In the 13-10 win over
Nanaimo, Brett Dobray
scored six goals.
•••••
Five straight victories
have pulled the Langley
senior A Thunder into
a share of first place in
the Western Lacrosse
Association standings.
The Thunder (5-2-0)
won three times in five
days last week, defeating
the Burnaby Lakers 13-7
on June 6, 12-8 over
the New Westminster
Salmonbellies on June
7 and then on Sunday,
13-10 over the Maple
Ridge Burrards.
The latter two games
were on the road, while
the first was at the
Langley Events Centre.
Alex Turner (three
goals, two assists) and
Lewis Ratcliff (two goals,
three assists) paced the
Thunder attack.
The Thunder host
the Coquitlam Adanacs
tomorrow (Wednesday)
at the LEC.Game time is

Langley athletes
captured seven medals
at the 2012 Lafarge
International Track
Classic.
The meet was held
June 6 at Abbotsford’s
Rotary Stadium.
Leading the
way was Robbie
Gallaugher of the
Langley Mustangs
Track and Field Club,
who won gold in the
long jump with a leap
of 7.37m.
That was one of
three medals won by
Mustangs athletes as
Eli Kastelein won gold
in the 400m hurdles
in a time of 57.53 and
Ethan Wilkinson took
bronze in the 400m in
50.43.
Jarid Vaughan
of the Coquitlam
Cheetahs won silver
in the 100m race
in 10.84 seconds
while Fiona Bensen,
who competes for
the Trinity Western
Spartans, was second
in the 1500m race in
4:31.02.
Vaughan is an R.E.
Mountain graduate,
who competed for
four years with the
University of Texas at
Arlington Mavericks
and graduated with a
degree in kinesiology
in 2010.
Valley Royals’
Spencer Prince and
Zach Choboter won
silver and bronze,
respectively, in the
hammer throw and
long jump.
Prince’s throw went
53m while Choboter
leaped 6.02m.
Prince is a
Brookswood graduate,
while Choboter, who
is from Aldergrove,
attends Abbotsford’s
St. John Brebeuf.

The North Langley
Hornets are making a
steady climb up the
podium.
The squirt division
squad of 11 and
12-year-old girls
have entered three
tournaments so far
this baseball season,
finishing fourth, third
and now second.
The most recent
result came June 1-3
in North Delta when
the Hornets placed
second.
And the team is
hoping to continue
their ascent this
coming weekend
(June 22-24) when
they enter a league
tournament at Noel
Booth Park.
They have also
placed fourth at
a tournament in
Cloverdale and third
in North Surrey.
The Hornets are
currently undefeated
in league play.

In last week’s
Langley Times, a relay
team from Walnut
Grove which captured
a medal at the
provincial track and
field championships
was omitted.
The Gators’ Jason
Kimoto, Martin Allen,
Alex Wilkinson and
Austin Dumont
captured the silver
medal in the boys’
Grade 8/9 4x400 relay
event at Burnaby’s
Swangard Stadium.

completed the
event in 3:47.82,

GUY, Philip Murray March 20, 1953 – April 11, 2012

Philip is survived by his family Wayne & Carollyn Guy, Linda Anderson (sister), Richard & Cathy Guy and numerous nieces and nephews.Philips’ request was for no service, so the family had a small remembrance luncheon at his favorite food source, the A & W on Fraser Highway in Langley on Sunday, June 10th for “Bacon Burgers, fries & a root beer”.We pray Philip is now at Peace
