…Birch Bay is only 2.5 miles across but has over 19 miles of marine shoreline and because
it a shallow bay…the water is warm and the beachcombing and clamming go on forever. In fact the Lummi called this area Straf-a-wa
which means “the place for the clams.”

THE TIDES
e
Over 50% of all the housing at Birch Bay is “seasonal” with the majority of this being Canadian ownership! It is an eclectic mix of cottages, condos, and RV parks and has activities all year long including Polar Bear swims, running races, parades, fireworks, sandcastle contests, and music festivals. But it is the beach that has long attracted Canadians…where you can walk for miles when the tide is out. Both Semiahmoo Resort and Blaine are just a few minutes away and offer great boat moorage options. One of the areas merchants has become a local icon, and the building has been around since the 1920’s…the C Shop…appropriately named for the candy and ice cream available in large varieties! And The Tides will be a great “base camp” for exploring everything the Pacific Northwest has to offer.
You are going to love the beach, the family BBQ’s and the cottage interiors at The Tides.

Some plans feature an optional out-door kitchen on the private deck overlooking the forested nature preserve area. There are three designer interior packages to choose from…all with a cottage feel. A limited selection of cottage homes are available for immediate occupancy.
The Tides cottages are located in position “A” in Birch Bay…on a sunny plateau just above the beach and only a one-minute walk to the C shop! So…you can spend all day at the beach, taking in all the activities and action but at the end of the day…come home to quiet and privacy. The Tides boasts over 11 acres of land with over 7 of it set aside in a conservation easement for parks, trails and even has a stream.
Most of the cottages back onto this quiet forested setting and the stream.When you arrive at The Tides, you will immediately be welcomed by a well appointed clubhouse with a swimming pool and hot tub. A selection
different vacation home designs include one-story ranchers, single-level condos, and two-story attached cottages. Every home is finished with warm cedar shakes, board and batten siding, inviting front or back porches/patios and quality craftsman details.

Dog walker in court
Campaign for crosswalk at fatal 72 Ave. crash site
SHEILA REYNOLDSBlack Press
A Delta dog walker accused in the deaths of six dogs that allegedly died of heat ex-haustion in the back of her truck before being dumped in Abbotsford in May had nothing to say to reporters following her fi rst court date Tuesday afternoon.
While she was inside the Surrey Pro-vincial Court building, Emma Paulsen ac-tually didn’t enter the courtroom where Crown counsel and her lawyer convened briefl y. Instead, she stood in another part of the building, away from where TV cam-eras could see her through the windows.
When she bolted from the door to a waiting car, a cellphone to her ear, Paulsen did not respond to media questions.
In August, Paulsen was charged with six counts, including killing an animal; caus-ing unnecessary suffering, pain or injury; neglecting to provide adequate food, wa-ter or shelter; failing to protect and ani-mal from circumstances that are likely to cause distress; causing or permitting dis-tress; and intent to mislead police in an investigation.
She has not yet entered pleas.If found guilty, she faces a maximum
fi ne of $75,000, up to fi ve years in jail and a ban from owning or having custody of animals for a period of time determined by the judge. Owners of the deceased dogs and their supporters attended the brief court appearance Tuesday.
Stephanie Marner didn’t blame Paulsen for rushing in and out of the courthouse.
“I would be hanging my head, too,” she said, noting one of the dead dogs, a bouvi-er/poodle, was owned by her sister, niece and nephew.
Marner suggested that if found guilty, Paulsen’s access to animals should be for-ever limited.
“She deserves a lifetime ban of ever owning an animal, she should never be able to be a dog walker, she should never be able to volunteer with animals,” said Marner, adding she intended to attend all of Paulsen’s court appearances.
Paulsen initially reported the dogs sto-len from the Brookswood off-leash park on May 13, sparking a widespread com-munity search for the missing animals.
But nearly a week later she admitted that the dogs had died of heat exhaustion after she left them in her vehicle on a hot day.
She then led Langley RCMP to a ditch in Abbotsford where all six dogs were found dead. One of the dogs was a border collie owned by her ex-husband and children.
Necropsies done by the SPCA confi rmed the animals all died of heat exhaustion.
Crown counsel spokesperson Gordon Comer said the next step in Paulsen’s case will be up to her and her lawyer.
“The matter is before the courts. She’s presumed innocent at this stage,” Comer said. Paulsen’s next court date is Oct. 17.

Gary Hee says the death of a senior pedestrian on 72 Avenue last week is more tragic evidence of the need for traf-fi c calming measures where 72 Avenue crosses from Surrey into Langley.
Hee, a resident of the area, is organiz-
ing a Saturday morning rally at 10 a.m. in a church parking lot near 72 Avenue and 198B street.
That’s where an 83-year-old man died on Thursday, Sept. 4, after he and an 81-year old woman were hit by a car.

At exactly the time class would normally start for Brookswood Secondary students, on Wednesday at 8:18 a.m, six Grade 12 students walked into their school, binders in hand, wanting to learn.
“If the doors are open, we will walk into the classrooms with our binders and pens to show we want to go back to school,” said Magi McFetridge on Tuesday. She is a BSS Grade 12 student who came up with the idea to stage the walk-in.
“Both sides say they are fi ghting for the kids and yet we are the ones who have a legal right to get an education but aren’t
getting it.”She created a Facebook page called BC
Student Walk In and it has 60 members so far.
She and the other students crossed the teachers’ picket line. She spoke to several of her teachers about her plan.
“They are supportive,” she said.McFetridge said many Grade 12 students
need to be in school to start organizing post-secondary education and to complete their high school grades.
She wants to work for Free the Children and had planned to do some fundraisers for the charity through the school as part of her application. That has been set back
now, she said.“We want this to be over and fast, be-
cause we deserve an education,” she said.Teachers were voting Wednesday on
whether to try for binding arbitration to settle the bitter dispute, even though the government has repeatedly turned that option down. Teachers have been picket-ing without pay since going on a full strike in June.
At present, both sides couldn’t be further apart.
Education Minister Peter Fassbender spoke to The Times last Wednesday.
The former Langley City mayor, who left his seat here to become B.C.’s education
minister, had a clear a message to teachers: suspend the strike for a two-week period and do a “full court press on negotiating.”
“Let teachers vote on it. That way they can get back to their classrooms and get paid and we can really get down to negoti-ating a deal,” said Fassbender, just over an hour after Premier Christy Clark spoke on the same topic.
B.C. Teachers Federation president Jim Iker held a press conference of his own last Wednesday, saying there is no way the union will take a two-week break from the strike.
So the stand-off continues and “kids, families and parents suffer,” Fassbender said.

21-year saga endsas subdivision approved
ALR CONCERNS STILL AN ISSUE DAN FERGUSONTimes Reporter
A debate over development of an 11-acre Murrayville farm site came to an end Monday with its fi nal approval by Langley Township council, 21 years after the own-ers fi rst applied to build housing on two agricultural properties near 216 Street and 44 Avenue.
The matter ended up in court when the regional Metro Vancouver authority said the proposal, known as the “Hendricks et al” development, violated regional growth strategy limits and sued the Township.
Metro also sued Langley over two oth-er housing developments it said were beyond the power of the municipality to approve; the University District and the Wall farm projects near Trinity Western.
In March of this year, B.C. Supreme Court Justice Neena Sharma dismissed the Metro lawsuit and upheld the approv-al of all three projects.
Sharma said the Metro regional growth strategy, which aims to control urban growth, was only guidelines expressing policy, not enforceable laws.
That cleared the way for fi nal approval of the Hendricks development, 21 residential lots with a 15-metre landscape “buffer” to be built between the new homes and the protected farmland to the south.
The Hendricks et al properties used to be part of the protected land within the Agricultural Land Reserve (ALR), but the provincial agency in charge of the ALR,
the Agricultural Land Commission, ap-proved its exclusion after several appli-cations by the owners in 1993, 2003 and 2009.
At the Monday evening Township coun-cil meeting, there was one last debate be-fore the vote.
Councillors Michelle Sparrow and David Davis were the only voices raised against the proposal.
“This just sets a precedent, and shows that that if you try hard enough and ask enough times and spend enough money, that eventually you will be able to devel-op your agricultural lands,” Sparrow said.
Davis said the Township could lose “thousands of acres” of farmland if more buffers are allowed.
“Stop cutting farmland out,” Davis said.Councillor Charlie Fox was among the
majority who voted for the proposal, say-ing the land, a former horse training fa-cility, was “unfarmable” in part because it is located next to an urban residential neighbourhood.
Councillor Kim Richter said the “agri-cultural quality of the land is not high” and pending changes to provincial agri-cultural laws make buffers “absolutely critical” to reduce confl ict between urban residents and farmers.
Councillor Bev Dornan said the site was a “perfect spot” for a buffer that would protect both the rural and urban commu-nities.

Langley RCMP is hoping to return a “signifi cant” amount of cash to its rightful owner.
The money was left in some clothing which was donated to Value Village and found by an employee as the clothing was readied for resale on Aug. 27.
All the cash has been turned over to Langley
RCMP. The amount of cash is signifi cant enough that someone is very likely missing it, said Cpl. Holly Marks.
If you recently donated clothing to Value Village and may have left a sum of money in a pocket, please contact Langley RCMP at 604-532-3200 to arrange for its’ return.
MONIQUE TAMMINGATimes Reporter
Crime really didn’t pay for a former Langley Best Buy ware-house employee, who was caught stealing the company’s electronics and selling them on Craigslist last year.
In a recent decision by the B.C. Civil Forfeiture Offi ce, $13,000 of the 23-year-old’s cash profi ts from his scam were seized.
The cash was discovered during a search of Wei-Chun Eric Wang’s Port Coquitlam apartment last year.
The money was located along with $23,000 worth of iPads, iPhones and computers taken from Best Buy.
All the stolen property was re-turned to Best Buy.
Wang was charged with theft under $5,000. He pleaded guilty and received a conditional dis-charge on June 13.
In November 2013, Langley RCMP were called to investigate an internal theft at Best Buy.
Investigators found the sus-pect and determined the prod-ucts were being sold on Craig-slist. The investigation led to a search warrant for Wang’s resi-dence.
Langley RCMP Const. Mike Schnerch, who is Langley’s asset forfeiture co-ordinator along with Anders Galasso of the Street Enforcement Unit,
reviewed the fi le and referred it for consideration of civil forfei-ture.
In late July, Langley RCMP was informed proceedings have concluded and the cash ordered forfeited.
The B.C. Civil Forfeiture Offi ce is entirely self-funded and relies on revenues from successful for-feiture. These monies are used in part to fund crime prevention efforts by police and communi-ty groups across B.C. Since the program began, it has returned approximately $15 million from successful forfeiture actions to crime prevention and victims programs in B.C, including pro-grams in the Langley area.

Hee says he’s been told by Township of Langley staff that a traffi c light will go in next year, but he and his neighbours feel something needs to be done sooner.
“We can’t keep having citi-zens killed on the street,” Hee said.
“I just want a crosswalk . . . just the basics,” Hee told The Times Tuesday.
“We can’t keep having citi-zens killed on the street.”
Last year, Hee launched a pe-tition to press for traffi c calm-ing measures along 72 Avenue around 196 Street, after a young boy was hit while rollerblading and a 19-year-old woman was struck in a hit-and-run crash and left lying in a ditch.
Hee said he has threatened to paint his own crosswalk on 72 Avenue, but was warned by Township staff that he could face criminal prosecution if he did.
At the Monday afternoon meeting of council, Ramin Seifi , the general manager of engi-neering and community devel-opment, said plans for the area include “full signalization” near the scene of the crash early in the new year.
A memo to council from the engineering division on Mon-day said the Township has the money to build a traffi c light at
196 Street and 72 Avenue, but can’t proceed until a design consultant hired by the City of Surrey fi nishes work later this year, followed by start of con-struction in the spring of 2015.
The memo noted plans for widening of 72 Avenue be-
tween 196 Street and 200 Street to four lanes, including left turn lanes and bicycle lanes.
It added Township staff plan to conduct pedestrian and traffi c counts at the
scene of the fatality, where two stops signs currently stand, “to determine if changes to the intersection traffi c control are warranted.”
A woman who witnessed the accident went to Township council Monday night to lobby for safety improvements.
“That was very diffi cult to see,” Teresa Blades said of the fatal crash.
She added traffi c accidents are all too common in the area, with vehicles ending up in the ditch “almost weekly.”
In her written submission to council, Blades said 72 Ave-nue has no marked pedestrian
crossings between 192 Street in Surrey and 200 Street in Lang-ley.
She said westbound traffi c goes from two lanes to one at 198B street, creating a “funnel-ing effect” that increases dan-ger to pedestrians on the north side while on the south side, a property under development is forcing pedestrians to “walk within the eastbound lanes.”
Councillor Charlie Fox told Blades the Township is doing what it can to improve safety on the route.
“I know we’re as concerned as you are,” Fox said.
The same night, council ap-proved construction of a hous-ing project on 72 Avenue near the 198B intersection where the two pedestrians were hit.
The 15-lot subdivision was originally approved in 2006, but fi nal approval was delayed “due to ownership challenges and market related concerns” a staff report to council said.
Construction of the project is expected to improve safety be-cause it will widen 72 Avenue by two metres.
Langley RCMP said the fatal accident was likely caused by the glare from the setting sun which caused visibility issues for the female driver who hit the two elderly Langley resi-dents.
Neither speed nor alcohol are considered factors.

From Page 5Councillor Steve Ferguson
said he was “looking forward to this thing fi nally being re-solved” after so much time.
Mayor Jack Froese said it was time to “see that this chapter is
closed and we move on.”However, there will be at least
one more round of legal wran-gling.
In April, Metro Vancouver ap-plied to the B.C. Court of Appeal to overturn the Supremo Court
decisions on the Hendricks, University District and Wall de-velopments.
The hearing of the Metro court challenge is scheduled for Dec. 8, 9 and 10 at the Court of Appeal in Vancouver.
The ‘white van scam’ has sur-faced in Langley, this time in a blue Jeep.
The scam is people selling knock-off electronics “for a fraction of the retail price” out of the back of their vehicle.
The Langley instance took place on Sept. 2 in the Army and Navy parking lot, said Lang-ley RCMP. The ‘mark’ was ap-proached by two men in a blue Jeep.
They offered to sell projec-tor units and screens. The scammers suggested that their company had been shipped too many of the items, priced at $4,300. They indicated they were willing to sell them for
only $1,000.But the scammers had met
their match. He declined the offer and recorded the license plate of the Jeep. Unfortunately, the plate had been terminated long ago, said Cpl. Holly Marks.
Typically, these scams in-volved one to three individuals. They may be casually dressed or even have uniforms. Often, they use a minivan or commer-cial vehicle (usually a white, commercial van, which can be rented inexpensively). They set up in moderately-traffi cked ar-eas such as parking lots or gas stations.
The scammers will often claim they work for some sort
of audio retailer or installer and through some sort of corporate error, they have extra items for sale. For a variety of reasons, they will be looking to sell the items at ‘well below retail’ pric-es. They may even go so far as to purportedly verify the price by displaying a website, bro-chure or magazine advertise-ment.
If the mark declines the offer, the scammer may use a variety of high-pressure negotiation sales tactics.
Police stay to be strong and don’t give in. Police also appre-ciate any reports of this activity, descriptions of suspects and li-cence numbers.

Members of the Triple A (Affordable, Accessible, Appropriate) Senior Housing Committee are hosting a seniors’ housing needs summit over two days, on Thursday, Sept. 25 and Friday, Sept. 26 at Newlands Golf and Country Club.
The one-and-a-half day event will highlight the overall strategy of awareness advocacy and action to build upon the Langley Senior Housing survey com-pleted by 540 residents, and the successful workshop last November.
The summit will go over the needs in the community, housing options avail-able currently and in the future in Langley, as well as local solutions.
Projections see Langley’s senior population increasing 137 per cent, with more than 44,270 by 2031. However, many in Langley are not homeowners but renters. Langley City currently has the highest percentage of low income se-niors in all of Metro Vancouver.
A lone senior receiving a guaranteed income supplement (GIS) lives on less than $1,500 per month. These are the reasons a summit needs to be held.
There will be a focus on keeping seniors living in their homes as long as possible.
The summit is geared to older adults, nearly seniors, family and caregivers, government leaders, civic staff, community agencies, volunteers, developers.
The registration deadline is Sept. 15.To register call Marilyn 778-878-5369 or at www.tripleaseniorhousinglangley.

Do you plan to attend this year’sLangley Good Times Cruise-In??of the week
Questionwe asked you:Last Week
The guest editorial from the Campbell River Mirror points out the need for candidates to step forward, with local elections just over two months away.
Thus far in both Langleys, the lack of inter-est is obvious. A few candidates have informed The Times that they are running, a few others have mounted cam-paigns on social media and it is rumoured that a few oth-ers are ready to run. However, it is a far cry from the mu-nicipal election of 2011, particularly in Langley Township.
There were three candidates for mayor in that election, and no one was seen as a front-runner. The intense in-terest in the mayors’ race, combined with efforts by The Times and others such as Greater Langley Chamber of Commerce to boost the vote, led to an additional 4,000 turning out, as compared to the lacklustre 2008 election.
There was plenty of interest — almost too much — in the eight council seats. A total of 27 candidates ran, over-whelming voters at the polling booth and likely helping ensure that all incumbents were elected, despite a level of dissatisfaction with council. All but two actually lost votes from their 2008 totals, despite the additional voters taking part.
The election for the Langley Board of Education also was keenly-contested, with an informal slate which opposed many of the previous board’s initiatives taking control. The new board proceeded to fi re superintendent Cheryle Beaumont, but has generally worked together well and has led the district back to a balanced budget position — a major achievement.
Langley City, as is usually the case, saw a boring cam-paign in 2011 and a decline in voter participation. All but one incumbent was re-elected, with former 18-year coun-cillor Ted Schaffer returning.
Schaffer, who has been acting mayor since January, is ex-pected to run for the top job in November, although he has yet to announce his intentions. He joins Township Mayor Jack Froese, one of the few to actually say he is running.
This time around, local councils and boards of education will be serving for four years, so the need for competent, committed councillors and trustees who are good listen-ers is greater than ever.
It’s democracy in action.Three individuals have now declared
their intention to run for Campbell River mayor during the Nov. 15 civic election, and it’s anticipated that others may also
step forward.On top of this, more candidates are also needed for
Campbell River city council and elected positions on the Strathcona Regional District board. There will also be seats available on the local school board.
Most residents will take it for granted that there will be numerous names on the ballot to choose from.
But keep in mind, that many electoral area seats are fi lled by acclamation because there is only one candidate, while in other jurisdictions, there are just enough hope-fuls to pull an election together.
We would hope that while the nomination period is un-derway, residents throughout the Campbell River area will consider letting their name stand.
There’s no question that civic politics take up consider-able time for meetings, research and social engagements, but it’s also an opportunity to be active in your communi-ty and make a difference.
A variety of skill sets is critical given the challenges fac-ing all communities, including aging infrastructure and public demands for services while trying to ensure a fi s-cally responsible organization.
Councils are generally dominated by retirees or the self-employed, and while their involvement is positive, a broad-based perspective of ages, genders and economic backgrounds would be welcome.
Politicians are too often not held in high-esteem, but re-member that they still play a critical role in our society, and particularly at the local level, they can make a differ-ence.

Guys try hard to makethe right adjustments
While cruising the strip on Fri-day night, my buddy Frank waved and pulled me over by a 1970s-era Chevy with the hood up. I got out and Frank asks if I know anything about distributors or spark. The car owner and his lady are there and I learn he shut it off, went for dinner and it wouldn’t start.
I am not a mechanic but few men are going to say, “Gee, I know very little about the internal combus-tion engine,” especially if there is a lady there. For centuries, we are the ones who are supposed to know how to snap the reins to make the chariot go.
Looking under the hood, it was nice to actually see the engine. There were the plugs, the carb, the coil and the distribu-tor, which had been taken apart. They are unlike today’s cars, where everything is covered with black rigid plastic as if the manufacturer has designed some sort of stealth technology that we are not sup-posed to touch.
Years ago, we pulled up to a shop and a guy in greasy stained coveralls, wiping his hands on an oily rag, smiled and said, “Pull her in here and we’ll pop the hood.” For the new cars today, a scientist in a clean white shop coat with a serious look says, “We’ll hook it up to the computer and run a di-agnostic.” There are not many heavy duty wrenches in a 21st century toolbox.
“Maybe it’s the points,” I offer.“We tried them,” says Frank, “they’re not
sticking.”I try them anyway. I fi ddle with the rotor
and they have both done that too. It is get-ting dark so I get my fl ashlight and shine it
on the distributor, and we all wig-gle a few more things. A neighbour has been called and more parts are on the way from the owner’s shop.
I make a suggestion. “Three dif-ferent guys have touched this, we shone a fl ashlight on it, let’s put it back together and give a try.”
With the aid of the fl ashlight, it goes back together. I have fl ash-backs of holding the fl ashlight while my Dad worked on the car. Somehow if a wrench or a bolt
dropped to the ground, it was because I wasn’t holding the light properly so I know this is an awesome responsibility.
The owner gets back in, turns the key and the Chevy starts up and purrs like a kitten, just as the neighbour arrives with the box of extra parts. Turns out that the neighbour, Dale, and I went to high school together. He has more mechanical knowl-edge than the three of us combined, but as far as we are concerned, we got the car going again, even if we’re not sure how, but we won’t admit that.
In days gone by, we never passed a stranded motorist. Maybe we had a tool box or a set of jumper cables or just took him to get a can of gas. Today, we make a call on the cellphone and we don’t even have to stop. Not much personal touch in a 21st century tool box either.
In the end, I surmise that women are a lot like car engines. We are happy when they are purring smoothly, even if we don’t know which switches we fl icked, what ad-justments we made or what we wiggled at the right time. At least that’s what McGre-gor says.

Editor: I fi nd myself in the awkward position of trying to apologize to a man I have never met.
He might remember me, as the older man with the red face, mouth open and yelling, while driving a silver Dodge pick-up on Fraser Highway, at about 12:30 p.m.on Sunday.
I hope I didn’t ruin your Sun-day. Because of my attitude, I ruined my own.
Again,. I’m humbled by my anger and stupidity, in a show of road rage.

Editor: I just had to write to express my agreement with Valerie White’s letter in the Sept. 2 edition of The Times.
RVs parked on driveways are an unsightly blight on a neigh-bourhood and certainly do block the view up and down the street. We are always happy when the RV next door disap-pears for a few days, or even a week or two.
Do people not realize that when they go away and the RV disappears, it is so obvious that they are not home. We are look-ing forward to the day when all these RVs have to go into stor-age for the winter months, then we can see down our street.

Editor: This is an open letter to B.C. Teach-ers Federation president Jim Iker:
Dear Mr. (Str)Iker,At what point are you going to become re-
alistic in the handling of the negotiations to resolve the teachers’dispute? What a waste of everyone’s time — taking a vote among teachers with a non-starter.
I am tired of hearing how you feel bad about using the students as pawns. You had a full summer to negotiate, but you held no meetings and waited until you had the stu-dents to use as your leverage.
Then again, teachers are nor-mally off all summer, so we would not want to break that habit.
The teachers would like to be paid for a full year, when they only work less than 75 per cent of the year. Wouldn’t workers in private industry like to be treated the same way?
Smaller class sizes? There was a time when the teachers could handle up to 40 students and do
a fantastic job. What happened? They had no Pro-D days or prep time. If you teach the same sub-ject year after year, why do you need this prep time?
It is time for Iker and his team to face reality and start some serious negotiations. It is time for the teachers to show some “smarts” and get our students back where they belong.
T. MCLEOD,LANGLEY
It’s time to get serious about negotiating
JIM IKER
Teacher apologizes for all the hardshipsEditor: I am a teacher and I would like to
apologize. I would like to apologize fi rst to all the stu-
dents who are really looking forward to get-ting back to school. To you, I say I’m sorry that you can’t be in school right now. We are trying our best to get you all the support you need.
Many of you don’t know that before our contract was ripped up you were entitled to smaller classes and more time with resource teachers and support staff. You had a librar-ian in the library and a counsellor to talk with. You had speech and language help and ESL if needed. I am on strike right now be-cause I know that you need these things to reach your full potential. You can’t strike, so I will do it for you.
Secondly, I would like to apologize to the parents of the students. I am truly sorry that this strike is making things diffi cult
for you and your families. I know that you have to fi nd a place for your children to go for $40 a day and that there are not enough daycare spaces available. I appreciate your support and understanding that we are trying to make things better for your child and future children. We are trying to get a government to put back what the Supreme Court has twice told them they stole from our schools.
I would like to apologize to all the CUPE workers and other support workers that put so much of their time and energy into our schools. I know that you understand and see fi rsthand the state our schools are in. I am sorry that you are facing fi nancial hardship to support us.
Lastly, I would like to apologize to Premier Christy Clark and Education Minister Peter Fassbender. I am sorry that I am making your lives more diffi cult by requiring you to fund
public education properly.It is hard to put money in what could be
considered a ‘non-profi t’ organization rath-er than into ventures that will see a return. I know that you would much prefer privat-ization, because then you could charge for education and begin to make a profi t. This, unfortunately, would create a two-tiered ed-ucation system and again, I am sorry, but I don’t think this benefi ts the majority of peo-ple.
I am sorry that it has come to a full strike that has continued on into September.
There are too many kids in a classroom.There is not enough support.There are not enough resources.This is not OK with me. Sorry.
MEGHAN COULTER,LANGLEY
Already plenty of teachers on the payrollEditor: The present B.C. Teachers Feder-
ation demands border on insanity. Do the math.
There are 500,000 students and 40,000 teachers in the public school system today. Divide the amount of students by the num-ber of teachers, and you come up with 12.5 students per teacher.
This means that 20,000 teachers could take care of 24 students per class.
My question is, what are the other 20,000 teachers doing, besides collecting a good pay cheque each month? Now they want a $5,000 signing bonus, plus smaller class sizes too.
Come on folks, grab a brain. First you waste the summer holiday season, which should
have been used for negotiations. Now you use kids as pawns to meet your demands. Disgusting indeed.
Think. Where else can you get a good pay-ing job with three months holidays each year?
GERTIE POOL,ABBOTSFORD
Editor: So the B.C. government is appealing the two court rulings which decided in fa-vour of the teachers being able to determine what the class sizes and mix should be.
The government’s argument is that it has
the right to do what it wants without nego-tiation, regardless of any existing contract. Basically their argument is: “Yes, we put it in the contract but we didn’t mean it.”
In other words, they lied. How can you
negotiate in good faith with politicians like that? How does the BCTF think they can have meaningful binding arbitration with politicians that lie?
I would feel better if the BCTF had much
more input into deciding how tax dollars are spent on education, rather than just a merry-go-round of deceitful politicians.

What to do on the last long week-end of the summer?
Well, if you’re the Doknjas broth-ers, the answer is spending three days with 43 other people inside the hall of the Brookswood Seniors Cen-tre, competing in the Langley Open 2014 chess tournament.
For the brothers, John, 14, Joshua, 11, and Neil, 9, chess is a serious business.
The boys were taught the game by their father, Dave, when they turned fi ve. At seven they began to compete in chess tournaments. The brothers spend two hours each day studying the game and techniques of chess masters.
One of the brothers’ tournament
competitors, Butch Villavieja, a na-tional chess master and the 2012 BC Closed Tournament champi-on agrees that studying the mas-ters’ games is important to player’s growth.
“Chess is a game of mind games and you need to understand the principles in order to win games . . . by studying the masters’ moves you are looking for the meaning of the move.
“You will get ideas . . . you will learn pattern recognition . . . and then be able to implement it in your own game [and] develop your own system,” he said.
The Langley Open 2014 is run as a “Swiss format” tournament. The details of this style are important to the players involved, but to the casual observer, it means it is a non-elimination tournament with pre-determined rules on the pairing of opposing players.
This tournament has six rounds (games) and each player will play in each round.
At the end of the sixth round, the player with the highest score, deter-
mined by calculations involving the player’s moves and win/loss ratio is declared the tournament winner.
Tournament director Brian David-son said the Langley Open tourna-ment is, “fairly signifi cant [and] the winner gets to go to the BC Closed [tournament], so it is a qualifi er.
“There are only six or eight qual-ifi er tournaments in B.C. each year and this is the last one, so if you haven’t qualifi ed up until now and you want to be in the B.C. champi-onships, then you have to play here.”
In the fi nal results, the brothers made an impressive showing.
John and Joshua tied for second, along with Savvas Kyriakides.
All three won fi ve of their six rounds, and take home $200 and bragging rights.
Nine-year-old Neil came in about halfway through the pack, winning three of his six games.
Tournament champion is Bindi Cheng, a chess international mas-ter who won $550, a trophy and will now move on to compete for a championship in the B.C. Closed Tournament being held in October.

Magnus Lundh, who died recently, was a retired master mariner who was deeply committed to vol-unteering with Nicomekl Enhancement Society.
Contributed photo
Magnus Lundh, face of NicomeklEnhancement Society, passes awayNicomekl Enhancement Society has lost one of
its most passionate volunteers.“It is with a great sadness, and many fond
memories, that the Nicomekl Enhancement Soci-ety (NES) would like to acknowledge the passing of Magnus Lundh,” said president Lynn Mandla in a statement.
“Magnus joined us on Dec. 30, 2001, at the encouragement of Joe Kambietz. Little did we know the impact he would have or the joy he would bring. To many, Magnus was the face of the NES, whether it be through correspondence or in person. Magnus would always put you at ease through his welcoming persona, infectious smile and amazing hair. He was always eager to attend any event that raised awareness for the salmon, including manning information booths, attending conferences, or travelling anywhere he thought he could make a difference.
“Beyond being on the front line, Magnus was also the backbone of salmon enhancement at the hatchery, personally seeing to the rearing and re-turn of millions of salmon in his tenure. Magnus was also giving with his knowledge, spending countless hours sharing with anyone fortunate enough to hear, maintaining invaluable records, and championing the needs of salmon.
“He was vital to many projects important to the Nicomekl River, ranging from habitat restoration and salmon reintroduction, inter-hatchery co-op-eration, and most recently the efforts to have a fi sh gate installed on the Nicomekl Flood Gates.
“Without Magnus Lundh, the Nicomekl En-hancement Society would not be all that it is today, and for that we thank him. It is with this knowledge, and heavy hearts, we bid our friend everlasting peace; but know that as long as salm-on return in the Nicomekl River his legacy will live on.”
Mr. Lundh was born in Sweden in 1930 and left home at 14, seeking adventure at sea. He worked
his way across all the seas and oceans, visiting most of the major and many minor port cities of the world. Eventually he chose Vancouver as his home port, a place he considered to be the best in the world. He completed his master mariner ticket and worked over 40 years in the B.C. mari-time industry.
A reception to remember him will be held at the Delta Town & Country Inn on Friday, Sept. 12 at 1 p.m.

New polling data suggests a planned referendum next March on new taxes to expand the Metro Vancouver transit sys-tem could yet pass despite wan-ing public support for TransLink.
The survey was conducted for TransLink in two phases in May and late June by Maple Leaf Strategies, before and after the release by Metro mayors of their $7.5-billion expansion plan.
The fi rst phase found 57 per cent of respondents were very or somewhat likely to vote ‘yes’ in the referendum, followed by 56 per cent in the second phase. About a third said they were un-likely to vote in favour.
“That is very encouraging for us,” said Bob Paddon, TransLink’s executive vice-president of stra-tegic planning. “A referendum is winnable.”
The survey found 58 per cent were willing to pay higher taxes, fares or fees if the money raised is dedicated to new transporta-tion and transit projects.
A larger majority of 75 per cent agreed that “even if tax-payers don’t like new taxes and fees, they are necessary to build new transit and transportation infrastructure to deal with con-gestion.”
A further 79 per cent agreed public transit investments help ease congestion for drivers.
The surveys of more than 500
residents have a margin of error of plus or minus 4.3 per cent.
“There’s an appetite out there to solve this problem of con-gestion and people understand that’s going to cost money to do it,” Paddon said. “They also want ensure those are good invest-ments and they’ll be managed well.”
SFU City Program director Gor-don Price said he also thinks the referendum may be winnable, but cautioned there are major risks.
“Those are more optimistic results than I would have anticipated,” he said of the polling data.
A companion survey from Mustel Group indicated declin-ing overall support for TransLink — down to 68 per cent of re-spondents with a favourable opinion from 75 per cent in 2010 when the Canada Line opened.
And the polling was conduct-ed before two major SkyTrain shutdowns fueled intense crit-icism of TransLink in May, as well as this week’s release of rising payouts to senior execu-tives.
Price also noted there’s no fi nal agreement between the mayors and the provincial government on what tax mechanism would be used and no clarity on what it would cost the typical house-hold – answers that voters need as soon as possible.
Even assuming the mayors and province reach a deal, tran-sit advocates like Price expect a diffi cult battle for votes against anti-tax opponents of TransLink spending.
Much, he said, will come down to how voters perceive the ques-tion.
“If it’s a vote on TransLink, most people think it would be very tough,” Price said.
“If it’s a vote on our future, the chances increase – provided the num-ber is palatable, peo-ple believe they’re getting value for money and all parts of the region bene-
fi t.”Also essential, he said, is that
politicians across the spectrum and right up to the premier sup-port the plan and the Yes cam-paign.
The poll results also suggest the mayors’ top choice of in-creasing the carbon tax in Metro to fund their plan over the short time has less support than oth-er options.
Fifteen per cent picked the carbon tax as their preferred revenue source.
In contrast, 27 per cent listed a $75 vehicle levy, another 27 per cent chose tolls of up to $2 on all bridge crossings in the region and 17 per cent picked a regional sales tax of up to one per cent.

The B.C. Teachers’ Federation’s latest demand, for binding arbi-tration on selected pocketbook issues of its members, is going nowhere.
This follows months of the union’s insistence on mediation. First a B.C. Supreme Court judge met with both sides and walked away. Then Vince Ready, agreed that mediation won’t fi x the cur-rent mess.
BCTF president Jim Iker an-nounced the arbitration gambit on Friday. Education Minister Peter Fassbender re-plied that with fi ve minutes’ notice to the government’s chief negotiator and lack-ing specifi cs on what would be subject to arbitration, the proposal would forfeit the government’s mandate to control costs.
“This government will not raise taxes in order to provide a settlement to one union that does not refl ect what the other public sector has done,” Fassbender said.
In short, there will be a negotiated set-tlement, eventually. The union chose to begin the strike, and now must fi nd a way to end it.
The government’s position in this dis-pute is unlike any of the many that pre-
ceded it. And it points the way to an evolution of education that cannot be stopped.
The announcement of a $40-a-day payment for days lost during a fall strike for children under 13 was greeted with scorn by the BCTF and its echo cham-bers. Parents won’t be bribed, they want school, not daycare, it’s an insult, went the refrain.
Before the fi rst week of the fall strike was over, nearly two thirds
of eligible parents had enrolled, faced with pickets at their schools and real and mounting child care and tutoring costs.
The union executive, who do not col-lect their hefty salaries while teachers do without even token strike pay, said mem-bers who are parents should refuse the money.
Some B.C. teachers have begun adver-tising tutoring services online. With dis-tance learning and other online educa-tion options expanding in all 60 public school districts, the digital revolution is unfolding quickly.
Growth of options accelerates.Largely drowned out by the noise of
1970s-style industrial labour strife, the
B.C. public school curriculum is being refashioned for this new age. Among its goals is to “allow teachers and students the fl exibility to personalize their learning experience to better meet each student’s individual strengths and needs.”
One of B.C.’s early models for self-di-rected learning is Thomas Haney second-ary in Maple Ridge. It was here that the fi rst couple of Grade 12 students showed up last week to begin making up for lost time.
Private schools are also swamped with applications from Grade 12 students look-ing for particular courses they will need by next year.
In the short term, Fassbender says the lost strike days will likely have to be re-stored to the school schedule.
“Do you put it on at the end of the year? Do you take it out of spring break? Do you take it out of Christmas holidays? My staff are looking at all of the options,” Fass-bender said.
In the longer term, the whole factory model of school is on the way out.

Buyers looking beyond home features when purchasing
By Kerry Vital
Domae Homes has long been known for high-quality homes that they themselves would want to live in. With the Summit Residences, that’s actually the case for partner Kevin Chester, who lives in the community
himself and enjoys being able to say hello to the people who have purchased a home there.
“We build homes that we care about,” he says. “Th ese are not just houses; they’re homes that people want to spend time in.”
Located in the Promontory Heights community in Chilliwack, Th e Summit
Residences are worthy of their name. With stunning views of the surrounding valley and mountains, the neighbourhood is a nature-lovers dream. Th om Creek Park is nearby, as well as trails, golf courses, lakes and other recreation opportunities.
“Th ese views are to-die-for,” Chester says.Th ere are controlled and registered
building design guidelines in place to keep that view for the homeowners at the Summit Residences, which is especially important to those buyers who put a beautiful view on the top of their list of must-haves.
Th e 52 single-family homes on the 12-acre site are available in a range of fl oorplans, including two new layouts that range in size from 2,116 to 2,324 square feet plus an unfi nished basement.
Curb appeal is not in short supply at Th e Summit Residences, with their Craft sman architecture, distinctive exposed aggregate or stamped driveways and spacious outdoor decks, patios and landscaped yards. Each home has a double-car attached garage.
“No two homes are the same,” Chester says. “We want buyers to get exactly what they want, so there is quite a variety of options.”
Spacious open-concept fl oorplans are perfect for entertaining, and homeowners can choose between two professionally selected colour schemes. Large windows maximize the view and let natural light fi ll the space. Hardwood laminate fl ooring throughout the main level is complemented by luxurious trackless carpeting in the bedrooms. A cozy stone-faced gas fi replace adds a touch of contemporary elegance to the living room.
Th e gourmet kitchens include hardwood cabinetry, classic granite countertops and a hand-set tiled backsplash. A granite-topped island adds to the overall counter space and serves as a gathering place. A spacious pantry is another masterstroke of convenience.
Th e ensuite is spa-like and relaxing, with a deluxe soaker tub, frameless glass shower and fl oating under-lit hardwood cabinet.
Homes start at $450,000. For more information, visit www.summitresidences.ca, call 604-824-6473 or stop by the sales centre at 47150 MacFarlane Place, Chilliwack, open 12 to 5 p.m. daily except Th ursday and Friday.
Submitted photosThe Summit Residences by Domae Homes is perfectly situated in Chilliwack to take advantage of everything that the area has to offer, including tons of outdoor recreation opportunities. The spacious homes are available in a variety of open-plan layouts, allowing homeowners to personalize their home.

NEW HOME DEVELOPMENT
By Kerry Vital
Th e decision on where to purchase a new home goes beyond the features of the homes themselves. Beautiful countertops or elegant fl ooring go a long way, but there are a few other features that buyers are increasingly looking for. Th ose features include an amazing amenities space.
“In the past, we saw amenities spaces tucked away within
buildings, which were small and uninspired compared to what is available today,” says Cressey Development Group’s Hani Lammam. “Amenities are becoming central to a building’s design.”
Among the popular amenities in new home construction are a full-size gym, a yoga studio, gardens, a music room and large communal entertaining spaces.
“We’re noticing that distinct architectural styles appeal to the
homebuyer, such as multi-level and indoor-outdoor amenity spaces,” Lammam says. “Specifi cally, we’ve seen buyers wanting amenities that they will really use and which will add to their quality of living.”
To capitalize on this, Cressey has included beautiful amenities in several of their recent projects. Richmond’s Cadence features a rooft op garden and glass “Jewel Box” pavilion that holds an entertaining lounge and kitchen.
Maddox in downtown Vancouver includes a full-size indoor gym as well as a podium entertaining space linked to the main building.
Concord Pacifi c is also integrating amazing amenities in their new projects. For example, Park Avenue in Surrey’s City Centre has a tennis court, putting green, theatre, fully landscaped sky gardens and many more. Th eir Richmond master-planned community of Concord Gardens has a banquet hall, grand ballroom, lantern pavilion and several other stunning features.

Natural Gas
$835
Before buying compare space & water heating costsWhen you’re house-hunting, choosing a home with natural gas for space and water heating can save you money.
Believe it at fortisbc.com/calculator.
*These are approximate savings based on the difference between annual natural gas and electricity costs for space and water heating of a 2,300 square-foot house with average insulation and four occupants in the FortisBC Lower Mainland service area. Calculation compared high-efficiency natural gas furnace and large storage tank water heater with electric resistance heating (baseboards) and equivalent water heater and is based on FortisBC natural gas rates as of July 2014 ($11.054/GJ) and electricity rates in the service area identified (Tier 1 and 2: $0.079 and $0.118 per kWh). Actual savings may vary. Savings do not include potential rebates and/or incentives.

DID YOU KNOW: Since becoming a pharmacist last year, one of the things that has surprised me the most is how many people have trouble taking prescription cholesterol medication. For the vast majority, the benefi ts of these medications outweigh the risks, but people ask about natural approaches every day. Family Care Pharmacy strongly believes in practicing both prescription and complementary & alternative medicine, and one of our favourite disease states to talk about with our patients is cholesterol management. The Natural Standard has assigned Grade A evidence-based ratings to plant sterols (such as those found in NOW Guggul Extract) and soluble fi ber (Glucomannan and Cho-Less-Terol by Organika) for cholesterol management. Visit us at one of our 5 locations and enjoy 20% off any of the products featured here.

Township Mayor Jack Froese recalls speaking to the riders and volunteers of the Sears National Kids Cancer Ride outside the Sears at Willowbrook Shop-ping Centre two years ago.
“It was very emotional just looking at the photos of the young people that have struggled with can-cer,” Froese told a crowd gathered outside the store last week.
He was speaking as the riders made a stop in Lang-ley as part of their coast-to-coast journey, which will take them from Vancouver to Halifax over the span of 17 days.
The ride came through Langley in 2013, but Froese did not attend that day, be-cause his wife, Debbie, was in the middle of her own fi ght against cancer, under-going chemotherapy treat-ments.
“Debbie and I had many conversations about can-cer,” said Froese, fi ghting his emotions as he spoke.
“She once said, ‘If any of my grandkids had can-cer, I would want to take it from them, I wouldn’t want them to have that pain,’” he said.
“’Maybe that is why I have cancer?’” she said.
Debbie is now in remission, and doing well, Froese said.
He thanked the riders, and all the volun-teers who accompany them, for all that they do.
“You are out there taking that pain away from the children, and I am really thankful for that,” Froese said.
•••Prior to their stop in Lang-
ley, the riders embarked on the journey by dipping their bike wheels into the ocean in White Rock.
They will conclude their ride by dipping the wheels into the Atlantic Ocean.
The team of 20 riders — who take turns cycling the more than 7,000 km route — each have their
own personal reason or connection for participat-ing in the ride.
The Sears National Kids Cancer Ride — one of eight events the foundation holds each year — has contributed $7 million
over its fi rst six years.
One of the rid-ers, Ken Cross was in hospital with his daugh-ter Megan, who
had been diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia, when Jeff Rushton called him and fi rst told him about the ride.
Rushton is the co-founder and chair of Coast to Coast Against Cancer Founda-tion.
Until that point, Cross — a Sears employee — knew nothing about the ride, nor did he have any cycling experience.
“I fell into childhood can-cer like any other parent would,” he said, adding that the community sup-port his family received was amazing.
“It really does take a vil-lage to raise a child.”
Cross rode cross-coun-try in 2009, 2012 and 2013. In both 2010 and 2011,
he helped fundraise and served as an ambassador to help build awareness.
•••September is childhood
cancer awareness month and Sears stores across the country are fundraising in the fi ght against childhood cancer, said Signe Bell, the Langley store manager.
“You each have your own reason to ride,” she told the riders and volunteers.
“Someone or something has touched you enough to take personal action and make an enormous, enor-mous commitment.”
Sears partners with the ride in many ways, includ-ing hosting the entourage at various store locations across the country.
SLH Transport provides a pair of trucks.
The back of each truck serves as the sleeping quarters for the riders.
“This is how they keep costs lean, 100 per cent of the proceeds are donated to the cause,” Bell said.
“And the important thing, because of sponsors like Sears and a ton of volun-teers, we are able to give 100 per cent of that money we raise to the charities we support,” Rushton said.
Riders left the Sears store at Willowbrook Shopping Centre in Langley on Thursday, Sept. 4, embarking on the next leg of their ride to Halifax.

Nufl oors Langley along with LAPS (Langley Animal Protec-tion Society) are putting on a special pet adoption day on the Nufl oors showroom on Satur-day, Sept. 13.
The event “Sit, Stay, and Save” will have lots of kittens and puppies as well as more mature animals, all awaiting their forever home.
Volunteers from LAPS will be on hand to answer any ques-tions.
The day is partially spon-sored by the Stainmaster Cor-poration, the makers of Stain-master “Pet Protect” carpet — a revolutionary item of its type.
According to Dennis Lund-strom, a member of the Nu-fl oors management team, the new product is fully guaran-teed against anything pets can do to stain it, including #1 and #2.
To prove the carpet’s durabili-ty, test samples were put in the home of 13 kittens while they were being litter trained at the headquarters of Tinykittens.
com, a local kitten foster home affi liated with LAPS.
Tinykittens.com live streams the kittens’ adorable antics and often grabs more than a million views.
“This is the best way we can show how well it works.
“Half will be cleaned and half left as-is. The demo should be dramatic,” said Lundstrom about the kitty test sample.
As support for LAPS and their
affi liates, Nufl oors will donate $1 for every square yard of Pet Protect carpet sold during the month of September.
“We are more than pleased to make t his offer,” Lundstrom-said.
Nufl oors is located at 20771 Langley Bypass, across from La-Z-boy, next to Buns Master.
They are open Saturday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. with adoption viewing from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Nufl oors Langley hopes to prove its Stainmaster carpet can stand up to the worst that a litter of kittens can throw at it. On Sept. 13, the store on the Langley Bypass will host a pet adoption day titled Sit, Stay and Save on behalf of Langley Animal Protection Society (LAPS).

Imagine having the power and velocity to throw the ball — two key components of a successful pitcher — but not being able to fi nd the strike zone.
In baseball, this is known as the ‘yips’ and it can be potentially fatal to a players’ future in the game, no matter how young or old they are.
In fact, Rick Ankiel was a pitcher with Major League Baseball’s St. Louis Cardi-nals from 1999 to 2004 when all of a sud-den, he lost his ability to throw strikes consistently. Ankiel wound up switching to the outfi eld and played on and off in the Major Leagues until retiring this sea-son after playing more than 600 games as a position player.
Langley’s Kristjan Storrie had a severe case of the yips at the start of this season.
“For two months, I had the yips,” said the 17-year-old right-handed pitcher.
“It was not fun; it was rough, but I just powered through it. I just had to grind through it.
“And after that, it was a pretty good sea-son.”
In 2013, Storrie went 6-2 with a 2.27 earned run average and 34 strikeouts in 40 innings for the Langley Blaze.
But this past year, the 17-year-old strug-
gled, going 1-1 in fi ve appearances with a 4.08 ERA and 10 strikeouts in a dozen innings. The main problem was walks as he issues 14 base-on-balls.
“He struggled at the beginning, but he really came on in mid-June, July and got better,” said Langley coach Jamie Bodaly.
The problems were most likely exter-nal.
“He had a lot of pressure coming at him from all over, from scouts, agents and stuff,” Bodaly said.
“People put a lot on his shoulders and a lot in his head.
“They put too much pressure on him (and) everyone said something to him.”
The external pressure was the result of Storrie’s potential.
After all, Storrie had reached 93 miles per hour on a radar gun and he had a pitcher’s build, standing six-foot-four and 200 pounds despite just being in his late teens.
The Blaze coaching staff’s solution was to have Storrie not even think about pitching in a game. Instead, he began tak-ing batting practice and played the occa-sional game as a positional player.
Eventually, he regained some of his form, pitching primarily in the Seat-tle Premier League, a second league the Blaze joined in 2014.
Storrie did talk with a sports psycholo-gist about overcoming his problems and the key was to just work hard and try and forget about it.
“I just had to come out and do my thing,” he said. “I just kept throwing and got the feel back.”
And once the yips were behind him, it has been a fairly successful season.
In August, after the Blaze won the pro-vincial title, Storrie was invited to Cali-fornia for the Area Code Games, one of the biggest showcase events.
The Games see eight regional teams which are run by Major League Baseball teams.
Storrie, who played on the Northwest Team (Oregon, Idaho, Montana, Hawaii and western Canada) was one of just fi ve Canadians invited to the event.
“It is a big honour just to get invited,” Bodaly said.
“It is the most prestigious event there is and he did really well.”
And next week, Storrie is off to Toronto where he will play at the Rogers Centre as part of Tournament 12.
The event invites the top Canadian draft-eligible talent to participate as part of regional teams.

After a victorious home open-er, the Trinity Western Spartans could not duplicate the desired result in their road debut, split-ting their opening two matches of the Canada West men’s soccer season.
The Spartans got a goal from rookie striker Vito Poletto in the 19th minute on Friday night at TWU’s Rogers Field and that stood as the winner in a 1-0 de-feat of the UFV Cascades.
But the next night in Victoria saw the Spartans fall behind 3-0 before losing 3-2.
Against UFV, Poletto took a pass from Cam Parkes at the top of the Cascades box, turned, beat his defender and then ripped a shot top corner.
“It’s amazing and a perfect way to start the season,” Poletto said.
“I can’t really explain it. It hap-
pened too fast, I just hit it top corner.”
That was all the offence the team needed as goalkeeper Evan Lowther made four saves for the clean sheet.
“I think we gave away too many restarts throughout the match, but having said that, I think in the second half we were a little better in that regard,” said Spar-tans coach Pat Rohla.
“Overall, there is lots for im-provement, but I’m ecstatic with a win at home on our fi rst night with a brand new group of guys. There’s a lot of room for growth, but I’m proud of the boys.
“I think Mitchell Rohla did a great job defensively for us to-night and I think Brayden Gan is back to form.”
Against the Vikes, Michael Baert potted a pair 10 minutes
apart and in the 50th minute, Cameron Stokes put the hosts ahed 3-0.
Matthew Roxburgh and Elijah Adekugby scored six minutes apart to pull the Spartans within a goal but that would be as close as the team came.
The Vikes had a 13-5 advantage in shots on goal with Andrew Hicks coming up with 10 saves.
“We absolutely shot ourselves in the foot today with the goals that we let in,” Rohla said. “All three goals were very prevent-able.”
The Spartans fi rst goal came when Roxburgh — who had drawn the free kick — was able to bury a rebound past Vikes keeper Pawlowski into the goal. The sec-ond score was also off a free kick, this time from long range, which managed to elude the keeper.
Spartans open with split
Five Blaze players off to TorontoStorrie is one of fi ve
members of the Blaze invited: Tony Pharand (SS/2B), Hayden Jaco (catcher), Kyle Ross (pitcher) and Dakota Curry (1B) are the oth-ers.
All fi ve are eligible for the 2015 MLB Draft.
Storrie, who enters Grade 12 at Lang-ley Secondary once school resumes, has already verbally com-mitted to Central Ari-zona Community Col-lege.
But getting drafted is the main goal.
Playing profession-ally has been the goal since Grade 9.
“It just clicked that I could probably go far,” he said.
And once his fastball started hitting higher speeds, the scouts be-gan paying attention.
Last summer, Storrie clocked in at 87 mph and in the fall, the speed hit 89.
And it was in Febru-ary, that Storrie’s ve-locity reached 93 mph.
He spent some time
with the Canadian junior national team program during the spring, but did not make the team’s fi nal roster. He is still on Baseball Canada’s ra-dar for 2015.
“He has off the charts potential,” Bodaly said.
“He has what scouts look for: he is a big, tall, lanky pitcher who throws the ball real hard.
“If he comes out and has a real good spring and throws strikes — because he has got
the arm — he could be a high-end draft pick.
“It is up to him now.”•••
The Langley Blaze have been named the team of the year by the B.C. Premier Base-ball League.
The Blaze were an-nounced as the win-ner on Sept. 3.
The U18 baseball team went a league-best 35-12 during the regular season and capped things off by capturing the provin-cial championship back in August.

The Langley Mustangs defence came up big, holding the Victoria Spartans to a single fi eld goal in a 21-3 victory.
The Mustangs bantam football team was play-ing at Victoria’s Westhills Stadium on Sunday in Vancouver Mainland Football League action.
The offence was led by the play of the offensive line, which delivered a strong performance that allowed the Mustangs to play a strong ball control ground game.

Defence reigned supreme for a pair of North Langley football teams as both the Bears pee-wee and bantam teams deliv-ered shut-outs in week two of the Valley Community Football League.
The games were played on Saturday at McLeod Athletic Park.
The peewee Bears hosted the Meadow Ridge Gold Knights, winning 24-0.
Mathieu Gale rushed for a pair of touchdowns, while Jordan Williams and Jaxon Stebbings ran for one touchdown each.
North Langley’s Brandon Folk-erts and Nicholas Reimer keyed a strong defensive effort.
•••The bantam Bears were on the
positive end of a 38-0 lopsided score in their game against the Westside Warriors.
In the bantam game, Ryan Barthelson raced downfi eld to
recover the opening kickoff and the Bears never looked back in a 38-0 trouncing of the Westside Warriors.
Zander Bailey rushed for four touchdowns and Andy Hanlen caught a touchdown pass from Jacob Stebbings for another score.
Jake Evans also rushed for one score and was instrumen-tal — along with Mason Block — in leading the stingy Bears’ efforts.
And kicker Charlie May had an excellent game, making sure the Warriors started their of-fensive series deep in their own end.
•••The North Langley Bears atom
squad suffered a heartbreaking loss, falling 14-6 to the Meadow Ridge Gold Knights.
Despite the defeat, the Bears had some bright spots.
Manny Fotiou delivered a pair
of quarterback sacks while Ty Gallinger also had one.
Owen Sieben was solid on both sides of the ball, recover-ing a fumble on defence, and scoring a touchdown on of-fence.
Annika Key also had several tackles for the defence while Keaghan Hurley was effective in rushing the ball to lead the Bears ground game.
•••The junior bantam Bears ran
into a strong defensive unit, falling 38-0 to the Meadow Ridge Knights.
It could have been a differ-ent game as North Langley was competitive in the fi rst half, but just missed an interception on one series and had an offensive touchdown called back on an-other due to a penalty.
One highlight for the team was Ethan Bernardin blocking a Knights kick.

In a game dominated by de-fence, it was the Okanagan Sun coming out on top in the battle of the top two junior football teams.
The Sun defeated the Langley Rams 31-10 on Saturday night at Kelowna’s Apple Bowl, im-proving to 5-1 with four games to play in the B.C. Football Con-ference regular season.
The Rams fell to 4-2.Neither team was able to gen-
erate much offence — Langley mustered just six fi rst downs and 179 yards of net offence while the Sun had 14 fi rst downs but only 139 yards of of-fence.
Both teams were sloppy as the Rams threw fi ve interceptions and twice more turned the ball over on downs. Okanagan wasn’t much better, throwing one pick and losing three fum-bles.
Langley even opened the scor-ing with Ethan Schulz scooping
up a fumble and returning it 24 yards for the major and a 7-0 lead.
But the Sun’s special teams took over, with Robbie Yochim’s 50-yard punt return tying the score and Brennan Van Nis-telrooy executing a fake punt for 40 yards and the go-ahead touchdown.
The Sun added two more touchdowns — a seven-yard pass from Cam Bedore to Le-rone Robinson and a two-yard run from Kasey Russell — as well as a fi eld goal to lead 31-7 at the half.
The Rams defence then held Okanagan to zero points and just 41 yards of net offence in the second half. And despite more success moving the ball themselves — 174 of the team’s 179 yards of net offence came in the second half — Langley was limited to three points off a Steve Thomas fi eld goal.
Jordan McCarty quarter-
backed the team in the second half and was 12-for-23 with 144 yards and one interception.
The fi rst half saw both Dylan Tucker (1-for-5, one intercep-tion) and Cecil Belanger (0-for-6, three interceptions) take snaps.
Daniel English caught six passes for 92 yards and Jordan Traversy rushed the ball 11 times for 45 yards.
The Rams offensive line held the Sun to just one sack, while Langley’s defence got to Bedore fi ve times, including a pair of sacks from Schulz.
The teams have played twice now with Langley winning 33-20 in week two. The teams will have their rubber match in Kelowna on Sept. 28.

Safety Tip:Focus on the road, not your phone. Taking your eyes off the road to check that text signifi cantly reduces your reaction time–and can have deadly consequences. In fact, distracted driving is now the
second leading cause of car crash fatalities in B.C.
Question of the WeekDriveway introduces our new northern B.C. based writer Mike Zacharias today. He challenges the image of the truck being the northern choice by testing a Ford Fiesta. What would you like Mike to test in the Prince George area?

DrivewayCanada.ca | Welcome to the driver’s seat
City commuter handles the northern roadsSubcompact cars are set up to be basic transpor-tation with emphasis placed on low cost and great fuel economy. That said, you might think they are all a bit boring and not very fun to drive or even very interesting to look at. This is not the case on the 2014 Ford Fiesta: it has had a face-lift and features more standard options than in the last model year. Usually little sub-com-pacts like this come with more plastic than a TV sports reader. The Fiesta feels different. You do get some plastic to be sure but the dash has softer materials and some of the plastic around here actually looks and feels good. For the price ($19,990 as tested), driving the Fiesta feels a bit naughty, as if maybe you have stolen a more expensive car than you can actually afford. I would love to be able to afford an Aston Martin as my daily commuter car but at this point in my life that is not an option. With the redesign, you do get the Fusion / Aston front-end styling. Now some people might say, “Well it looks too much like an Aston.” Really? That’s like someone telling a girlfriend that she looks too much like Scarlett Johansson; you’re not really going to complain, are you?
Don’t get me wrong, I am not saying it drives or feels like an Aston but it is great fun to drive, handles our roads very well and all the tech options needed to keep your eyes on the road are available. The SE model I drove came with Bluetooth, satellite radio, navigation, power locks, windows, and the My Ford Sync.I drove the Fiesta around Prince George and practicality wise it didn’t skip a beat. As I live downtown, anywhere I go in my daily life I am always driving right through the heart of the city. When I headed out
to the hockey rink, I was able to put all of my goalie equipment into the back, no problem. Parking in cities is increas-ingly becoming a premium. Parking a sub-compact like the Fiesta was a breeze even without a backup camera! As some people with larger vehicles will know, parking at places like malls in and around the city the spaces are tight with not a lot of movement space for bigger vehicles. In addition, of course, it does get worse in wintertime when the snow is piled high. With that in mind, how will it handle our winter roads?The Fiesta has good ground clearance for a smaller car and handling our
winter roads should not be a problem. Of course, you would want to invest in a good set of winter tires.Beyond the city limits, out on the highway, heading south it handled the road well, with enough get up and go for good passing power when needed.It’s quite roomy for a small car. There’s room for three in the back seat as long as those passengers are not of a larger body type, if I may delicately put it that way. If you are of a larger body type, there is plenty of room in the trunk, if you desperately need a ride at that exact moment. (Just kidding.) But it does tell you the trunk is also roomy! Verdict: No complaints. For a sub-com-pact, you get great tech options, great fuel economy, in a car that doesn’t feel like you are driving something as inexpensive as it is. It’s fun and zippy for driving around town or highway driving. If you need a small car as a
daily commuter or it’s your second car to accommodate a bigger SUV or truck, I would recommend taking one out for a test drive to see if it fits for you in what you are looking for in a car. The Fiesta right now for me is tops in the subcompact class.View our Ford Fiesta video review online at DrivewayCanada.ca

drivewayIll-Named but a Luxury Car for Real
Differing definitions of luxury in the automotive market are truly reflected in the eyes of the beholder. To one person it might be having all the refinements and gadgets available in a modern car accompanied with a smooth and quiet ride. To another buyer it might just be about the name on the front of the car, let-ting all to see it that the owner has “made it” establishing a certain status in society. For many it’s a combination of both. Enter the new K900 luxury sedan from Kia. It has all the refinement and features found in cars with a longer pedigree in the luxury space but this car offers it at a discount. Then the name on the car comes into play. Is the Kia K900 a car anyone as-pires to own? Well, after a weeklong trip with my family I’m more impressed with Kia than I have been before but the realist in me knows Kia isn’t a luxury brand, at least not yet. Looks
The K900 is an unfortunate name, it begs the question is this a dog? No, it is a full-size car about the same size as a 7-series from BMW or S-Class from Mercedes Benz. The K900 is based on the same platform as the Hyundai Equus but differs in price and content. For a full-sized
car with limo-like dimensions, the K900 starts at a remarkable $49,995 for the V6 model and $60,995 for the V6 premi-um model. The top V8 model is $69,995. The styling is strong, especially the top V8 model seen here with LED headlamps and taillights and very North American looking chrome multi-spoke wheels. The rear doors are huge and Kia has done but good job of keeping the proportions
of the car in check while grafting Kia’s signature Tiger Nose grille. The rear bumper and lower air diffuser looks especially chunky, almost mimicking the Lexus LS and its integrated exhaust tips.

InsideEvery person that sat in the K900 was blown away with the refinement, fit and finish and especially the materials used. The V8 test model had leather covering the front of the dash and piano finish on the wood trim accented. Add in tasteful chrome and aluminum, dark, rich wood on the steering wheel and centre console and the K900 looks like a million bucks. The front and rear seats came with ventilation and V8 models have a rear seat reclining feature. Despite spending countless hours behind the wheel travelling with two children in the back, the car offered a very relaxing ride for the passengers, and the kids especially liked the cooled seats on a very hot day. The centre infotainment screen is controlled with a rotary dial in-between the front passengers and is very similar to Audi’s MMI system. DriveThe V6 model comes with the very competent 3.8L engine that puts out 311hp. having tried this in other Hyundai/Kia products and it is smooth and powerful. The V8 is superb, with 420hp coming from a 5.0L V8, there is no lack of power. The shift in the auto industry is to smaller engines that utilize turbo charging but Kia is sticking with good old engine displacement to get the job done. Covering more than 1,000km, the real world fuel economy was 12L/100km on the highway. To say that the K900 is smooth and quite is an understatement,
I would put this car up against the new S-Class from Mercedes and a blindfolded passenger would have a hard time distinguishing the difference. What does be-come apparent is the K900’s lack of steering feedback to the driver and cornering ability. On Highway 3 from Hope towards Penticton the K900 wallowed in the switchback corners, it really didn’t like it at all. Driving back on the Coquihalla was a different story; the K900 shines in open road cruising, making it a wonderful long road trip companion.VerdictThe K900 is Kia’s very first pure luxury car and they got a lot right. The interior is as good as anyone in the marketplace and Kia does it at a substantial discount to the competition and power isn’t a problem especially with the big V8 available. But there were a few problems. The automatic lock and unlock feature on the outside doors only unlocked. This is probably a quick fix but an issue and the Bluetooth audio didn’t work either. Another stumbling block is the lack of all wheel drive (AWD). In this segment almost all vehicles sold come with AWD, in fact most companies only offer it. The market for this car is a happy existing Kia owner wanting to upgrade to something more and that is where the V6 model comes into play. Kia might not sell many of these cars but they have it for sale to show anyone that is interested that they can make a true luxury car, maybe not in name but in features and [email protected]

Monterrey, CA. – Look-ing at the specs, it doesn’t seem too im-pressive.
A 1.6-litre engine, 116 horsepower, 100 lb-ft of torque, a 0-100 km/h time of less than nine
seconds, 14-inch tires. Heck, my bicycle has bigger rubbers! Okay, maybe not.
But 25 years ago, the Mazda Miata was a product of those num-bers. It wasn’t neces-
sarily endowed in the engine department.
However, the two-door roadster did have ev-
erything else on its side. A sleek design, a peppy personality, a brilliant red coat and something that other cars have strived to a c h i e v e in their two-door roadsters over the years but have fall-en short – longevity.
At a quar-ter cen-tury old, the Miata/MX-5 has achieved in-credible success.
Close to a million of these drop tops have been sold worldwide. The Miata/MX5 holds a Guinness Book of World Records title of as most successful two-seat convertible roadster in history. Not bad for a car that packs in so many thrills for under $30K.
Over the years, the front-engine, rear-wheel drive car contin-ued to encourage the masses to drive top-less. Whether through a rag or hardtop, this specimen of automo-tive manufacturing and design allowed people to feel the proverbial wind in their hair with-in seconds.
I felt it as a kid as my mom was lucky enough to be one of the first Miata owners in BC when they came out in 1989 – a red one, of course – and took me out for rides frequently.
Those memories have stayed with me over the decades, though
I’ve been able to formmy own bond with thecar.
Not only have we(meaning, the various MX-5s I’vedriven inthe last in11 years)put downt h o u -sands ofkilometres t o g e t h -er, we’ve also beenp a i r e d up at theM a z d aR a c e wa y
Laguna Seca for theSkip Barber RacingSchool experience a couple of times.
Nostalgia is one pop-ular element of itsappeal, but there’s an undeniable fun factor. Whether racing it on a track or just taking it tothe grocery store, thefirst turn you carve init will rope you in like an infomercial in thewee hours of the nightwhen you can’t sleep. But in the case of theMX-5, you won’t have any buyer’s remorse.
Fast-forward through the years and you’renow viewing the fourthgeneration MX-5.
And what better way to welcome the road-ster to the stage herein California than via a little band called DuranDuran. And througha live satellite streamthat was broadcast here, and abroad in Spain and Japan.The reasoning? – Both the English musicgroup and the roadstercame into popularity inthe 80s and continued

2016 Mazda Miata/MX5 ALEXANDRA STRAUB
to succeed and grow in status over the decades. Besides, “Rio” is an incredibly catchy tune to dance to!That said the MX-5 has a new, eye-catching look to it. Not many specs have been re-leased though I can tell you this: it’s lower, wider, and sheds 100kg in the making.It also embodies the KODO or “Soul of Motion” design language.This two-seater also comes with sexy character lines from its four corners. Furthermore, up front, you’ll notice its headlights that look like they’re eyeing its prey; unlike the first generation’s pop up/down headlights that were more than welcoming.Like with all-new models of anything legendary, there will be a polarizing reception. Some might think it’s too radical. Some might fall immediately in love with it. And some will wait to drive it to make up their mind.Regardless of the way it looks – which certainly helps its cause – it’s really about how you feel on the road, behind the wheel, and when you tuck it in at night. More details about the MX-5 are scheduled to be released at this year’s Paris Auto Show.Either way, I can’t wait to drive it. [email protected]
