Richmond Sun runner banned for cheatingA runner from Richmond is one of
two competitors in The Vancouver SunRun to have been stripped of their med-als and barred from participating again.
Video analysis and eye witnessaccounts demonstrated the pair cheatedto win their age categories.
Neena Cheema, who won the50-54 age category for women, andRichmond’s Mohammed Razak, whocame first in the 55-59 age category formen, were advised Wednesday by Jamie
Pitblado, vice-president promotions andcommunity investment at The VancouverSun and Province, that an investigationhad concluded they cheated in the raceby taking shortcuts. Neither denied thecharge, he said.
“We’re absolutely appalled,” Pitbladosaid in an interview.
“It’s unfair for the tens of thousandsof people who participate for the loveof the sport or the community aspectof it and who do so fair and square. We
won’t stand for it.”Contacted by a Vancouver Sun
reporter, Razak said, “I took someshortcuts but I didn’t do that purposely.”He added, “I don’t know whether that’scheating. I wasn’t there to cheat any-body.”
Cheema’s phone was not answeredwhen a reporter called.! Full story at www.richmond-news.com.

Dave Dotan considers himself to be one ofthe fortunate ones.
The product of Richmond Minor Hockeyremembers the support he got from his par-ents to achieve his potential on the ice — thesacrifices they had to make in both time andfinances to allow him to ultimately suit upon the blue line of the WHL’s Prince AlbertRaiders.
That’s why the 21-year-old, and a group offellow SFU business students, are launchinga lifestyle clothing company, called PotentialApparel, that will use part of its proceeds tohelp disadvantaged youth participate in orga-nized sports.
“Oh, wow, it was a huge commitment bymy folks,” Dotan says, sitting outside MinoruArenas where he spent a good deal of timeon the ice. “When you consider hockey sticksalone can cost $100 each, it’s a big commit-ment financially. Then you have league fees,tournament fees, skate sharpening. It adds upto a lot of money.
“And you have to be financially stableand secure because hockey is one of the mostexpensive sports you can get a kid into.”
Thankfully, his parents were able to pro-vide that. But during his travels through thelower hockey ranks and into the WHL Dotanbecame aware how lucky he was to get an“education” on the ice.
“Growing up, I realized that when mycareer was over how important sports was tome, and my friends,” Dotan said. “It’s taughtme many things in life. And over time Ibegan to see how many kids couldn’t affordto play sports. And that’s unfortunate becausethe education you get from playing sports isjust as valuable as school.”
So, using his business skills PotentialApparel was born. The line of t-shirts, hood-ies and ball caps will start being sold onlineApril 30 at potentialapparel.com.
To help give the business a push Dotan isenlisting the support of his many hockey bud-dies who now are on the cusp or have startedtheir pro hockey careers.

Eye diseases no laughing matterComic Vision event to help fund vision research
Any optometrist could see the early signs ofmacular degeneration, a disease that eventuallycauses blindness. Dark spots would appear onan image of the eye.
But 30 years ago, optometrist Dr. DonnaMockler wouldn’t tell her patients if she sawthis type of image, for there was no treatment.
“There was nothing I could offer them, Icouldn’t offer a lot of hope,” she said at herRichmond clinic on Westminster Highway.“When people would hear that, all theywould think was blindness and would becomedepressed.”
Due to advances in vision research, diseaseslike macular degeneration’s progress can beslowed and treated, and there’s also more edu-cation in prevention.
One of the leading funding bodies for visionresearch in Canada is Foundation FightingBlindness (FFB) and it comes to Richmondwith its annual fundraiser Comic Vision nextThursday, May 2 at River Rock Casino Resort.
The event features three stand-up comedi-ans and provides the opportunity for people tomeet researchers and participate in silent auc-tions.
One in nine Canadians still suffer from irre-versible vision loss, and more than 1 millionsuffer from macular degeneration — a numberthat is only increasing with the aging popula-tion.
“I’ve witnessed first-hand the devastat-ing effects of vision loss in my patients,” saidMockler, who is on the organizing commit-tee for Comic Vision. “A person loses theirsense of independence, their mobility and theirenjoyment of life.”
With a charitable organization like FFB,
funding is more likely to be provided for smalland innovative research bodies, according toMockler. These organizations tend not to havea bias that pharmaceutical companies mayhave, and are willing to take more risks thanlarger funding companies.
The result has been funds provided for
several innovative university research projectssuch as stem cell research, retinal implants anddrug treatments.
“Seeing the research gives us hope, andwe’re empowered by that hope,” said Mockler.“Comic Vision allows us to come together andcelebrate this newfound empowerment.”

Family Function is a popular col-umn that has run in the RichmondNews for almost 10 years.
The column generally focuses on

He said that for too longparents have been left out ofthe classroom, and vowed towork with teachers to sepa-rate “the legitimate wage andbenefit demands from class-room concerns.”
“The issues of the class-room should not be left oraddressed simply on a prov-
ince-wide basis,” he said.“These concerns should beaddressed locally and thereshould be input from parentadvisory committees.”
On the stabilization offunding, Cummins said itwould better allow planningefforts. He called the moves“getting back to the basics...”

The trail of debt and customers left strand-ed continues to spiral in the wake of a travelfirm collapsing this week.
Alameda Travels Ltd. suddenly shutup shop Monday morning at its office inAdmiralty Centre on McKim Way, just south-west of the Cambie and Garden City roadsintersection.
More than a dozen customers are knownto have been left almost $25,000 out of pock-et by the firm’s closure.
And one customer alleges Alameda’sowner, Deanna Leung, forged initials to altera cheque made out to the travel company topay for flights to Shanghai.
“Last weekend, I went to check my bankstatement and I noticed a cheque that I madeout to Alameda for $2,396 had been changedto be payable to Deanna Leung,” saidTingting Yao. She had forged my initials on
the change, I couldn’t believe it.”However, it didn’t become apparent there
was a problem with the two flights she’dbooked until Sunday evening, when a formerAlameda employee called her to say the firmhad folded.
“I called the airline, China Eastern, andthey said my reservations had been cancelledbecause Alameda owed them money,” saidYao. “I don’t know if I’ll ever see my moneyagain.”
No one answered the door at Alameda’soffice and its phone number clicks directlyinto voicemail. Many angry customers havecontacted Consumer Protection BC about thesudden closure.
The consumer watchdog, which is respon-sible for enforcing consumer law and issuestravel firm licences, said it received a callfrom Alameda Monday morning to say it was“ceasing operations immediately.”! For the full story, go to www.richmond-news.com.

“I can’t thank everyoneenough for their support ... I
feel very blessed,” said balletdancer Sturton, who lives inTerra Nova.
The MacNeill and Mageesecondaries grad is now pre-paring for the Miss UniverseCanada pagaent on May 19in Toronto, where she’ll com-pete against 59 other talentedyoung Canadian women.

Miss Universe bid eyed
Among them is former Vancouver Giantscaptain and now Montreal Canadiens rookiesensation Brendan Gallagher.
“Brendan is probably the perfect modelwe want for this company,” Dotan said. “He’sa small player who has been told all throughhis career he wouldn’t be able to succeed.And not only has he succeeded, he’s brokenrecords with the Giants, and he’s made theNHL.”
It’s those kinds of lessons of perseverance,Dotan said, that sports can teach youngsters.
Gallagher and the rest of the players
on Dotan’s “team” will be endorsing thePotential Apparel brand at numerous eventsduring the off season, including a charitygame featuring NHL and WHL talent.
Benefitting from the $5 to $7 from eachPotential Apparel item sold will be the chari-table groups The Right To Play and HerosHockey.
“The Right To Play helps children acrossthe world play sports,” Dotanm said. “AndHeros Hockey, which is a Vancouver-basedgroup, helps kids get on the ice to play hock-ey.” The company expects to raise $250,000for charity in the first year.

Everyone’s in a tizzy since the Americans announcedthey’re considering charging a fee to Canadian bordercrossers.
While bridges across the Lower Mainland, including the onebetween Maple Ridge and Langley, are springing up with tolls,we’ve always taken it for granted that a trip to the States will begratis. Well, for a certain value of free.
A border crossing fee, especially one of $1 to $10, won’tdeter anyone from making a once-a-year trip to see Disneylandor their American friends or relatives. But there are those whocross the border every day — truckers, mostly, but some folkschoose to live in Canada and work in the U.S., or vice versa.
Then there are those who cross once a week or so, to getcheap gas, maybe pick up some milk and eggs.
For those frequent crossers, it will be the equivalent of asignificant toll. Even a dollar a day adds up — especially if theexchange rate slips over the years.
That’s in addition to the non-monetary costs we’ve enduredalong the borders over the past decade. Increased security hasmeant the need for more ID, including passports or enhanceddriver’s licenses.
If the U.S. puts a border toll in place, they’ll be taking a smallchunk out of the Canadian economy.
We could put up a tit-for-tat fee of our own — but that wouldalso hurt us. Do we want to discourage American tourists andfilm crews from coming up here and pouring money into ourcoffers? Definitely not.
It’s been decades now since we had our debate about freetrade with the U.S. It’s ironic that, with free trade thoroughlyentrenched, the United States is now considering putting a priceon the movement of individuals through the world’s longestundefended border.
Debates seldom change people’s minds

As I write this, we’re afew hours away from thesecond of a series of all-candidates meetings anddebates for the Langley andFort Langley-Aldergroveridings. For those interestedin how the leaders of thefour major parties will per-form, there will be televiseddebates next week.
Will they change any-one’s mind?
That is what debate issupposed to do, ideally. Awell-reasoned argument isintended to change the mindof a viewer or participant.
In reality, it seldomseems to happen.
If you are a regularobserver of the politicalscene, for example, you canobserve the party faithfulgathering at local all-can-didates meetings. Half thecrowd will have their partycolours in the form of abutton or t-shirt. They’renot there to give reasonedconsideration to the otherparties. They’re there tocheer on their own candi-date, throw a few softballquestions to their own sideand a couple of tough onesto their opposition.
The same seems to holdtrue for the big televiseddebates at any level. Themost excited people will bethe pundits for TV, radio,and daily papers. They wanta good fight more than any-thing, a “knockout punch,”some serious drama. Beforethe debate, they’ll talk aboutGordon Wilson’s famousperformance in 1991, orBrian Mulroney’s savagingof John Turner in 1984.
These moments arerare, and I would argue thatthey don’t so much changepeople’s minds as bringforth ideas that have beenlong-forming.
When Mulroney attackedTurner on patronage, hewasn’t just attacking a newprime minister who hadmade unpopular appoint-ments. He was indirectlyattacking Pierre Trudeau,insider politics, shady deals,and a general sense that theLiberal party was a spentforce, a party out of touchwith the average Canadian.
Likewise, when Wilsonderisively dismissed bothNDP leader Mike Harcourtand Socred leader RitaJohnston, he didn’t cre-ate from nothing the ideathat the Socreds and NDPweren’t good enough. Heturned himself into a focusfor all those people whowere sick of Bill VanderZalm, but didn’t want to goquite that far left as to markan X for the NDP.
The common thread inthese “knockouts” is thatthey hammered alreadytired and doddering govern-ments.
The federal Liberals of1984 were always going tobe buried alive by the vot-ers; Mulroney just threw afew more shovels of dirt on
the coffin. Parties seldomrise and fall one one mis-take, one scandal, one slipof the tongue in a debate.
Let’s consider the NDP,from 1991 to 2001. Whydid they lose so badly thatthey only had two MLAsafter their electoral wipe-out?
Was it the Fast Ferries?That’s the first answer thatcomes to mind for manypeople, and it certainlydeserves to be remem-bered in the annals of greatCanadian boondoggles.
But the NDP had strug-gled back from Bingogate,from the departure of MikeHarcourt, from whateverMoe Sihota was up to inany given week.
The Fast Ferries werea political knockout, butthey came on the heels of alot of other things that hadirked people over 10 years.Any government makesunpopular decisions, and itmakes enemies faster thanfriends.
If the Liberals lose thiselection, no one will besurprised, given their cur-rent standing in the polls.We may lay the blame onthe HST, or BC Rail. Butthose will be symbols forthe slow buildup of pres-sure that happens when agovernment is in power formany years.
One debate, one knock-out, just cracks the dam andreleases the pressure that’sbeen building ever since theparty was sworn in.

The Editor,I’m hoping Richmond News readers may have information on
an Arthur Wilfred Butler (1891-1956).The village of Scotter in Lincolnshire, England is looking for
information about this man who emigrated to Canada in 1912.Wilf was born on March 3, 1891 in Yorkshire and was
brought up in Scotter with his three younger sisters Gertrude(‘Cissie’), Eva and Maud. During the First World War he servedin the Canadian Army in Lord Strathcona’s Horse. He wasdescribed as five feet 10 inches tall with grey eyes.
Scotter listed him on their village War Memorial to rememberhis wartime service.
On Sept. 10, 1932 he married Mary Hannah Bull inWinnipeg. From 1945, he worked as an accountant at FraseaFarms, Sea Island and lived in Richmond at 860 Blundell Rd.He and Mary moved to 410 No. 3 Rd. where Wilf died on Dec.7 1956.
He is written about on the Scotter Parish Council website(www.scotterpc.info) and I’d love to hear from anyone with anyknowledge of this man. Please contact Andrew by email at [email protected].

PAINFUL TRUTH
MatthewClaxton
Letters
The Editor,The first victim in political campaigns,
as in wartime, is truth.Nothing illustrates this better than the
April 19 ad by my MLA, John Yap, andtoday’s B.C. Liberals which appeared inyour April 19 paper: “The Choice is clear.Strong Economy. Secure Tomorrow.”
Sorry, Mr. Yap, today’s Liberals areno different from the old Liberals underGordon Campbell.
Deception is not only your party’smodus operandi, it IS in your name. Justbecause you claim you are liberal does notmean you are.
You and the Liberal Party are literallywolves in sheep’s clothing; a coalition com-prised of lots of right-wing Conservatives(aka Socreds), with a few token Liberalsthrown in so they could sell their politicalsouls to gain power.
Unlike real Liberals, they are the partyof big business, the ones that rip up unioncontracts for teachers and hospital employ-ees, inflicts a carbon tax on schools andhospitals so that free enterprise can gettax credits, and fund huge parties like theOlympics and the Bollywood Awards tohelp their developer buddies and bring theworld to Vancouver and/or to woo the eth-nic vote.
They are the ones who, immediatelyafter the last election, brought in the“Hated Sales Tax,” after saying it was “noton their radar.”
The B.C. Liberal Party has recentlyshown its bending of the truth by spending$15 million of taxpayers’ money towardsvery blatant political advertising about thesuccess of the Jobs Creation Plan; in realitythat program was a total failure as was thepretense that this was government informa-tion telling the fictional truth of their inef-fective programs. Lies, lies, and more lies.
And Mr. Yap is well aware of the secre-tive backroom plan created in the premier’s
office to use more tax money to seduce theethnic voters (aka as bribing ethnic voters)to vote Liberal.
When that unethical, sneaky strategycame to light, Mr. Yap had to fall on hissword for his responsibility.
He resigned his cabinet post because ofhis admitted breach of ethics.
Funny, he doesn’t feel he has to resignhis MLA’s position for the same lack ofethics. How’s that for a double standard!
And now my MLA for Steveston has theaudacity to advertise that by voting Liberal,we will secure a strong economy and asecure tomorrow.
The BC Liberals have never had a bal-anced budget, despite what they pretendedduring the last budget.
And for the next few years, they willcontinue to run a deficit. The fairytalegoes something much like this: If theLiquefied Natural Gas Plants are built inthe far future and if the hypothetical mar-ket overseas buys our LNG, and if thereisn’t another downturn in the market like2008 and if pigs could fly, then maybe, justmaybe in about 10 years, we might be debtfree.
It’s like relying on winning the Lotto649 instead of saving for your retirement.
Just because you say it’s so, doesn’tmean it is necessarily so.
Looking back at the ad, I notice that thead only states that “the choice is clear.”
Nowhere does it boldly state the choiceis to vote Liberal.
My choice is clearly to vote for anythingbut Liberal. It’s time to kick the them out!
This time, I prefer to vote NDP. They’renot perfect, but they are clearly more hon-est than the fibbing Liberals.
I hope Christy Clark and her trainedMLA seals spin in their political graves.

To support this campaign, people can “like” the REBGV Facebook page at facebook.com/helpreducetheptt. The province introduced the PTT 26 yearsago. It was structured to add 1 per cent on the first $200,000 of the purchase price, and 2% on the balance. The government of the day touted the PTTas a wealth tax, as just 5 per cent of homes in Greater Vancouver sold for $200,000 or more. Since 1987, home prices have increased substantially.Yet, after all these years, the tax’s structure hasn’t changed. Today, 96% of homes in Greater Vancouver sell for more than $200,000. “It’s time torelieve some of the unfair tax burden the PTT places on home buyers and we’d like to know where the candidates and parties stand on this issue,”Wyant said.

A10 April 26, 2013 The Richmond News
When a new model of caror truck is launched, manu-facturers work hard to gener-
ate excitement.Silk sheets come slid-
ing off polished sheetmetal,the turntable spins, and thespokesperson booms intotheir headset while flashes
flicker: New! Improved!Efficiency! Power! Features!Style!
The magazine covers fillwith perfectly-composed PRshots, the press lauds thenew champion — out withthe old, in with the new.
But they’re still actuallyselling the current model,and the new one won’t bealong ’til the end of the yearat least. Hey! I’m still a newcar! There’s nothing wrongwith me! This must be whatPrince Charles feels like.
So it is with Acura’sstrong-selling MDX, whosereplacement already bowedat the New York Auto Show.
It’s going to be lighter,and more fuel efficient. It’sgoing to have interesting all-LED headlights and a suiteof new Acura technologies.
It all sounds great. Here’swhy you should buy the oldone instead.
DesignIn its highest-spec Elite
trim, the MDX comesequipped with a ratherhandsome-looking set ofmachine-faced 19” alloywheels.
These fill out the flaredwheel arches nicely, and givea modicum of street-cred toa conservative-yet-handsomeexterior. Viewed in side-pro-file, the MDX is very sharplooking — probably the bestapplication of Acura’s angu-lar styling. From the back,it’s a bit anonymous, but stillhandsome. From the front?Um.
There’s no getting pastit, that is one beaky-lookinggrille treatment. It resemblesa parrot you’ve just told afunny joke to.
However, smirking aviansaside, the MDX is the sort ofvehicle that’s stood the testof time in the design depart-ment. This is pretty typicalfor cars built by parent com-pany Honda, but not alwaystrue for Acura.

I liked the looks of theMDX more and more asthe week wore on — butcouldn’t shake the impres-sion that I should perhapsoffer it a cracker.
EnvironmentAs a direct result of the
MDX’s big, boxy demeanour,interior space is excellent.There are bigger machineson the market, but not many
offer such a sensible layout.While the third-row is
kids-only, adult second rowpassengers have plenty ofroom to stretch out. Pickingsomeone up at the airport?Flopping down the third-rowrumble seats reveals a broadswathe of luggage-swallow-ing space; folding all theseats gives you enough areato fit an Integra Type-R.
Up front, drivers will findthe usual Acura quality to fit
and finish, and an interiorlayout that hasn’t quite agedas well as the exterior. Thereare a lot of buttons, requiringtaking your eyes off the road.But buttons don’t break likefancy touchscreens do.
And while a few demeritsmust be given for the relativeage of the MDX’s interiorstyling, most of those pointsare won back by the simplefact that all this stuff will stillbe working when the car is inthe hands of its third owner.
It also feels sturdy enoughto put up with having athree-year-old scramble overthe seats in muddy shoes andthen spill apple juice directlyinto the CD-changer.
PerformanceAmong the various luxury
marques, Acura is notable fornot ever making a V8 engine.This doubtless hurt sales oftheir flagship RL sedan overthe years, but driving some-thing like an MDX reveals
why they don’t bother.Despite a curb weight of
over 2000kg, the big Acura’s300hp 3.7L V6 is smoothand powerful, and does agood job of getting thingsmoving. Sounds pretty goodtoo, not that you’d noticeunless you put the windowsdown, given all that sound-deadening.
Mated to a six-speedautomatic transmission that’ssturdier and more reliablethan early Acura transmis-sions, the MDX gets off theline quickly when it needsto, and then is happy to padalong through traffic at asensible pace. Because ofits squared-off, big-box feel,sightlines are very good– especially for the crossoversegment.
The back tailgate bearsthe acronym SH-AWD. Thisis Acura’s shorthand forthe wonderfully-Japanesey“Super-Handling All-Wheel-Drive.” Super-handling! Whowouldn’t want that?

Right now I am in love withour garden. After an initial rushof activity to tidy it up andremove some of the dead debristhat winter left behind, it is in aperfect state.
Although the daffodils havepassed, their deadheading isminimal, and right now all Ido is enjoy the lushness of the new growth.I know there are spaces where things havedied, but I haven’t quite figured out what ismissing enough to go into mourning.
The rhodos are still full of potential— their buds for the most part swelling and
ready to burst into colour inthe coming weeks.
We have a large (meteorsized) hole where my hus-band and friend Dave tookout our bamboo. I was told itwouldn’t travel, and I thinkmost of this was wishfulthinking on my part.
Although I adored the way it swayed inthe wind, it was a bit too happy and wascausing too much of the garden to become inshade. I kept thinking “just one more year,”but finally reason caught up with me. Wehave filled most of the hole with an azalea
and a hydrangea, but there is room for a splitleaf maple, I’m hoping. They grow slowlyand behave well.
The rest of the bamboo in our backyard isin pots like it should be. Lesson learned!
Now is a great time to split any hostas orornamental grasses that you find have over-grown their spaces, along with many other ofyour perennials.
It is safe to plant many of the cooler lov-ing veggies now — peas (both sweet and eat-ing) are fine, along with potatoes, bok choy,and garlic, just to name a few. Hold off onsuch things such as tomatoes and beans fora while until the soil warms up. The back of
the seed package will tell you good informa-tion to help you succeed.
Trim back any plants that have becomelanky over the winter, such as penstemon.I trim back those beautifully fragrant wallflowers after they have bloomed, unless Ineed more seed.
If you have any empty spaces that arecrying for a plant or two, visit the RichmondGarden Club’s annual plant sale, FridayMay 10, at South Arm United Church, onSteveston Highway from 9 a.m. until 7 p.m.Deb Brodie is a member of Richmond GardenClub and can be reached at: [email protected]

He was running ahead,pulling at my hand to hurryus along, and on the verge oftears if the group paused tolook at an exhibit.
I told him we had all dayand he didn’t have to worryabout missing anything, buthe was desperate to get to thenext exhibit.
As soon as we all arrivedat the next exhibit, he was
off and running again. Hedesperately wanted to seethe wolves, but barely evenglanced at them before hechecked the map to see whatwas coming up.
We all tried to slow himdown so he could enjoy themoment and soak it all in,but the excitement of every-thing that was offered atthe zoo was overloading hissystem.
When we passed thetigers, all the other children
stopped at the fence andobserved as the trainer fedthe big cats. My studentwasn’t even paying atten-tion to what was happeningright in front of him. He onlywanted to know what wasnext.
I eventually took the mapaway from him, but it didn’tslow him down. Every timewe got somewhere, he justwanted to get to the nextsomewhere. At the end ofthe day, when the tour wasfinished, he cried because itwas over.
People ask me all the timeto help them achieve theirgoals. They set their person-al, work, and financial goalsand assume that when theyreach them they will finally
be happy. People also comein all the time wonderingwhy, after achieving all theirgoals, they’re still not happy.
Achieving goals is not abad thing. Challenging your-self with novel aspirationsthat are slightly outside yourcomfort zone is the best wayto learn and grow.
However, it’s not theachieving that creates thehappiness; it’s the striving.If we aren’t paying attentionduring the journey, we missthe point.
If you ask an angstyexistential teen the meaningof life, he will say that inits simplest terms we live topass on our DNA to ensurethe survival of our geneticpool. Then we die.
If that’s the case, why iseveryone trying to rush theprocess? Goal-driven peoplewant to get to the top of themountain, and they want toget there first, but what ifthat’s where it all ends?
People rush up the pathassuming that ultimate suc-cess and happiness can befound there. They ignoresigns and avoid the otherpeople along the path only tobe told when they reach thepeak, “Okay, it’s over.” Thething they feel at that pointis regret that they didn’t takemore time and pay attentionto all the things that hap-pened along the way.
It’s true that everyone ison a slightly different path.Some are paved highwaysand some are muddy potholefilled back country foottrails. But we’re all going toend up in the same place.
If we don’t like wherewe currently are, we canget on or off any given pathat the next intersection orfork in the road. Find a roadthat challenges you but alsomakes you want to mean-der and enjoy the scenery.Nobody knows how longtheir particular journey to thetop of the mountain is goingto be, but whether it is des-tined to be short or long, wemight as well slow down andenjoy the trip.

Home Owners are constantly looking atways of improving their Outdoor Spaces.Whether they have a large back yard orsmall patio, they want to create a spacededicated to entertain or a simple retreatto relax. These home projects all start witha plan and, more and more, the projectsare trending towards including firefeatures, heaters, and dedicated cookingareas. Specialty Hearth Retailers are oftenbrought into design consultations to helpensure that planning hasn’t overlookedwhat is needed to properly allow for thesefeatures.First, the Home Owner must understandthe purpose of the space(s) which willdetermine what is needed. By taking amoment to sketch a layout of the areaand, if possible, to scale will be the firststep to a proper plan. With this sketchone will have the ability to break downthe overall area in smaller sub-areas suchas sitting, cooking, and ever-so-forgottenabout traffic corridors. For example, justbecause a Home Owner has a 10’ x 20’patio this doesn’t mean they will use itfor just one purpose and fill it completelywith furniture, flower pots, and heaters.A common break down of this spacecould see as three independent spaces:a 10’ x 12’ space for seating, a 3’ widecorridor for traffic to and from the house,and the final 5’ space for your outdoor
cooking/BBQ area.Just like an indoor space, aside from thefurniture, the outdoor seating space isoften complimented with a fire feature.With many available choices including firetables, fire pits, or fireplaces, the HomeOwner creates completely different ambi-ances and flows to the sitting area. Withthe presence of the fire feature addingsome warmth to the space, Home Own-ers who are looking to extend their timeoutdoors are also adding properly sizedgas or electric heaters.When reviewing the cooking/BBQ spaceone has many options to satisfy the styleand amount of cooking the Home Ownerdoes. Small decks or patios often havefree-standing portable grills that can betucked away while not in use but largerspaces are increasingly starting to seeoutdoor kitchens planned and built-in fora fully stocked entertaining environment.Finally, having a professional help yourefine the planning and building of thespace will create an Outdoor Spacewhere you can entertain your family andfriends for years to come. Whether it isa landscape designer, contractor, or ifyou have your ideas gathered, industryspecific experts like a Speciatly HearthRetail help finalizing that last detail will bewell worth the effort.~ Len Brady, The Richmond Firebox

I wish Horsescould talk!What is always important to understand, in any propertyownership situation (including a dispute of most any kind), isthat despite the existence of a registered owner, on title, that isnot absolutely conclusive evidence of full legal (and beneficial)ownership of the property.
This issue arises fairly often in Estate situations, where the mixof documents that exist, and evidence of discussions amongindividuals, can lead to confusion, and ultimately a judicialconsideration of the issues. Put another way, many peopleare “promised” assets by others while the “other” is alive.Documents made may or may not support the promise (andmay not be brought to the attention of the person). After the“other” passes away, the surviving person is left to contemplatewhether to try and enforce the promise.
Earlier this month, reasons for judgment were released in thecase called Sabey v. Beardsley and Estate of Hopffgarten andothers. This is a dispute over ownership of a horse farm.
Facts
The Plaintiff first met the deceased and her husband, inWashington State, when he was a teenager. He saw themriding “dressage” and became immediately interested. Hecalled them to ask for lessons and they agreed. From that, avery close, long term relationship evolved. The Plaintiff did atremendous amount of work on the farm in Washington, andreceived lessons in return. This went for years. As the Plaintiffgrew older, he chose to do missionary work in Asia, and leftfor two years. When he returned, he was permitted back on tothe farm and continued his lessons and the farm work. He wasnot well compensated but was on occasion told of the couples’long term plans, which appeared to be in part, that the farmwould “one day be yours”. The Plaintiff was also encouragedby the couple to pursue post-secondary studies. The Plaintiffpursued Accounting at a Washington State college, and wasable to arrange his classes so that he could maximize his timeat the farm, and continue his work, and his riding (though itseemed a lot more work than riding).
At a certain point, the couple made Codicils to their Wills,where they bequeathed their farm to the Plaintiff. However,the Codicils were not witnessed by two persons, and so wereinvalid.
The Plaintiff over time, believed that the farm would be leftto him and when the husband died, in 2006, the Plaintiff hada few discussions with the surviving wife and that belief wasreinforced.
When the wife passed, in 2011, her Will said in part that thefarm was bequeathed to another person. I am sure that thePlaintiff was quite shocked when he discovered this.
Court’s decision
The case, legally speaking, was about something calledproprietary estoppel. What that means, essentially, is that if apromise is made to someone, and they rely on it, documentsmade at a certain point in time won’t override the promise.What was most interesting was that the Plaintiff was a modelwitness. His credibility was not in doubt, and his evidence wasthorough. Indeed, the Plaintiff is now well into his adult life(he is in his mid thirties) and so had a twenty plus year historywith the (now deceased) couple. He clearly organized his lifeover many years to permit him to work, largely unpaid, at thefarm. Other people who worked on the farm provided theCourt with good, corroborative evidence about the Plaintiffas well (I’m sure that if the dressage horses the Plaintiff rodecould have spoken, they would have given good evidencetoo!).
The Court seemed to have a relatively easy task of concludingthat the promise to the Plaintiff was made (more than once),the Plaintiff acted on it (over years) and did suffer detriment(a significant amount of work, though not from a negativeperspective because he had a very strong relationship withthe couple). Thus the case for the estoppel was made, and thePlaintiff was awarded the ownership of the farm. I think it wasthe proper result.
Summary
This is an important case, because this sort of thing happensoften in our society, and I question how many people are awareof the remedy that exists. Not that it is always a simple remedyto pursue, but it is worthy of consideration, especially wherea person’s life is so affected over years as was the case with thePlaintiff in this case. Understand that regardless what a titlemight show as the name of the registered owner(s), the trueowner or person entitled may be different. There’s always astory!

Three years after it was built, theUgandan library is a social hub, teemingwith kids excited to read and colour, stu-dents needing to study and older womenwanting to learn English, as they makepaper beaded necklaces.
It’s a far cry from what was there whenRichmond resident Andrea Dyck arrivedin 2010 as part of a CIDA (CanadianInternational Development Agency) intern-ship.
“We thought we’d be helping witha community library,” said the HughMcRoberts graduate, now 31.
“But when we got there, we realizedwe were two hours away from the nearestmajor town, and there was no library tospeak of.”
“We were staying in the only house, therest was mud huts.”
Slowly, Dyck and her fellow internJocelyn Preece got rid of the rat-chewedbooks — put there during the first stab ata library — fixed the roof and painted thebuilding.
Upon their return to Canada after fivemonths in Bunalwenhi village, they becameboard members of Under the Reading Tree,a Vancouver-based organization that helpsSub-Saharan African countries build librar-ies and promote literacy, as board members.
They immediately had their libraryadded to the organization’s list of libraryprojects in Uganda.
Three years later, Dyck has organizeda fundraiser tonight (Friday) with Africandrumming and dancing, crafts and a silentauction.
All proceeds go to Under the ReadingTree’s five libraries in Uganda.
“When we first got there, we hadexpected a library, whereas the owner ofthe property, John (Waibi-Walubi), hadexpected us to be bringing all the resourc-es,” she said.
Waibi-Walubi had left the village foruniversity and was a former professor whowanted to give the community access toresources it never had before.
He first attempted to build a library withhis own books from college, but without
the proper funds, couldn’t get it off theground.
Books had been rare commodities in thevillage and most of the classrooms didn’thave the required reading that students
needed to pass their exams.“Often the sustainability of foreign aid
is questioned, but to provide knowledge andbooks, there’s no agenda,” said Dyck.
“We want to provide access to knowl-
edge so that people can become empoweredthrough it.”
The two interns worked with Waibi-Walubi to set up a board of directors, traina librarian and other employees.
Acknowledging the power involved inselecting the books for the library, Dycksaid they left it up to the board.
“They know what the community needs.We asked teachers what was needed aswell.
“But we wanted to extract ourselvesfrom the process early, so it could be self-sufficient. It developed organically and in away that made the most sense for the com-munity.”
After a few hiccups — including a dona-tion of books that the U.S. government hadrendered obsolete — the library was readyto open its doors.
Floods of young children ran in, justexcited to be there and have a gatheringplace where they could flip through picturebooks and colour, recalls Dyck.
“It was pretty funny, these were reallyyoung kids, like two or three years old,”she said. “So they couldn’t really read yet,but just wanted to look at the books. It waspretty cool to see everyone so excited.”
Now, the library gives people the oppor-tunity to learn English through classes runby Waibi-Walubi’s wife Deborah Waibi andplans to hold workshops where people canlearn to read.
Through a coordinator in the village,Under the Reading Tree receives regularprogress reports and sends funds once amonth.
Dyck had returned to Uganda for 10months in 2012 and plans on going back.
“I feel very connected to it. It wassuch an eye-opening experience for me.Everyone had been so friendly and wel-coming.”
The fundraiser will be held at the AnzaClub in Vancouver at 8 p.m. It featuresdrumming by African Soul Train, followedby a DJ. Tickets cost $25.

The experience of the “A” team wasevident early on as it held a 2-0 lead goinginto the third of five matches.
The built up excitement for the finalthree matches quickly came to an end as a

U15 United lead host association into Coastal Cup finalsMetro Select League boys champions will be among five local teams competing for division titles next weekend
A year ago, Richmond United MetroBoys Soccer Program’s top 1998 born play-ers were the only team to miss out on theclub’s domination at the Coastal “A” CupChampionships. This time they are in thehunt with an exclamation mark.
U15 United is one of five local teamswhich will be playing for Coastal Cup titlesnext weekend on home turf. The locals hadalready secured a berth in this summer’sProvincial Cup Championships after captur-
ing the Metro Select League with a 12-2-2record, however, Jonathan Kallner’s sidewas far from done.
Richmond defeated North Vancouver2-0 in the quarter-finals then poundeddefending champion Port Moody ACSelects 7-1 last weekend to set-up a cupfinal against the Saanich Fusion on May 5(1 p.m.) at Richmond High.
United’s top 1999s will be looking torepeat as champions after advancing to the
U14 final with a 1-0 win in penalty kicksover league winner Burnaby Selects. ShawnSandhu’s squad takes on Coquitlam MetroFord next Saturday (9:20 a.m.) at MinoruPark.
Richmond is also looking for back-to-back titles at the U18 level after threestraight home field victories, includinga 1-0 triumph over North Coquitlam lastweekend. What’s impressive about thissquad is the bulk of Ted Lorenz’s roster are
U17s that won the Coastal Cup a year ago.United takes on the Burnaby Royals in thefinal May 5 (2:30 p.m.) at Minoru.
Joining the U13 All-Stars on the girlsside is Richmond Synergy. The U15 squadhas reached the final for the second straightyear after 2-0 win over the Delta Selectslast weekend. Coached by Ron Ng, the girlswill face the Central City Breakers Elitenext Saturday (9:10 a.m.) at Minoru, look-ing to avenge last year’s 2-0 loss.
U13 All-Stars rally to take impressive season to cup finalThe Richmond U13 Metro
Girls All-Stars dug deep to taketheir impressive season to theCoastal ‘A” Cup championshipgame.
The girls’ rallied for a 2-1semi-final victory over Delta lastSunday at Hugh Boyd to earna date in the cup final againstNanaimo’s Harbour City FC onMay 5 (3:10 p.m.) at Minoru Park.
From the opening whistle theRichmond girls went right at theirDelta opponents and were unluckyto have their first shot ring off thepost in the opening five minutes.Right after that play, however, thevisitors applied some pressure oftheir own, resulting in the firstgoal of the game on a well-hit shotfrom a long way out.
The Richmond girls kept uptheir fast paced passing gameagainst the Delta team who hadbunkered down protecting itsone goal lead. Delta almost gotanother goal when a ball headedtowards the Richmond goal waschased down and cleared off theline by Kirsten Wilshire. Afterthat fine play, the All-Star girlsregained their composure andcontinued moving the ball aroundlooking for their first goal.
After a half time talk withthe coaches discussing whatareas needed improving, thegirls encouraged each other andexpressed their belief that theywould be able to get it done in thesecond half.
It took all of one minute forthat belief to result in the tyinggoal when right off the kickoff,
Emilie Sherritt received a ball onthe wing and drove it across thebox for Liz Kibblewhite to fin-ish smartly. Ten minutes later,Kibblewhite continued her fineplay and laid off a ball for EbonyClarke, who ran past the markershadowing her all game to slot thewinning goal.
From that point on, defendersDakota Chan, Klara Marsh andGita Manhas shut down the Deltaforwards to prevent any otherscoring opportunities.
Jacqueline Tyrer, Kate Schmidt,Wilshire and Sherritt dominated inmidfield, while attacking playersJalen Donaldson, Kibblewhite andClarke kept up the pressure on theDelta defense. Goalkeeper KaseyWright was confident and strongin net and encouraged her team-mates to continue battling.
Coaches Clive Clarke andChantelle Donaldson were verypleased with the great team effortand congratulated the girls ontheir own belief that their highlevel of play and competitivenesswould earn them the result theywanted.
The All-Stars have fashioned a20-1-1 regular season record thisyear in winning the league whichhas also guaranteed them a spot inthe Provincial Cup finals in July.
“The girls have really improvedthis season,” says coach Clarke.“They are looking forward toplaying in the cup final in frontof their family and friends andwill display a really attractive andattacking brand of soccer for allto see.”
