After much debate, Pitt Mead-ows council voted to spend $70,000 to hire a consultant to help build a new parks and recre-ation department.

“This is one of the biggest, scari-est issues facing our senior leader-ship team right now,” Lorna Jones,

director of human resources, told council Tuesday.

“This is the second largest de-partment [in the city], and in 12 months we will have no expertise in this area at all.”

On Oct. 20, Maple Ridge council served notice to Pitt Meadows that after a 21-year partnership, it will opt out of the joint service agree-ment for parks and recreation, ef-fective Oct. 31, 2016.

The parks and recreation staff are all employees of Maple Ridge.

On Tuesday, Pitt council was

asked by city staff to ap-prove the hiring of a third party consultant with experience in providing parks and rec services and to work on a smooth transition providing them independently.

The consultant will “identify and evaluate op-tions for the delivery of parks and recreation ser-vices and develop a plan to transi-tion the organization from the cur-rent joint service delivery model to

the new preferred service delivery model,” said the recommendation from staff.

Couns. David Murray, Bruce Bell and Mike Stark balked at the cost, and ar-gued that Pitt Meadows shared costs in parks and rec services should buy them some of the needed information.

Bell said the existing staff should be able to provide some of this work, such as providing an inven-

tory of recreation facilities and ser-vices.

He said resources are limited, and the $2.2 million that Pitt Meadows currently puts toward parks and rec joint services should be the new budget for parks and recreation.

“We need to do some work on this,” said Bell. “There’s only so much money, and we have to repli-cate what we have, and try to make it better.”

He called the hiring “a total waste of up to $70,000.”

Grover Telford has questions and concerns about the temporary homeless shelter at 22239 Lougheed Highway.

What are the goals of the shelter? How many people are being trans-ferred into treatment? What is the success rate of treatment?

To draw attention to his quest for knowledge, the former Maple Ridge council candidate is organizing the On Site Community Expression of Concern this Saturday, at 11 a.m., across the street from the shelter.

“Please note that it is a respectful and peaceful gathering,” Telford said on the Facebook group Protecting Maple Ridge.

Maple Ridge re-membered on Tuesday.

About 5,000 residents at-tended the Remembrance Day ceremony in Memo-rial Peace Park, according to Fred Armstrong, City of Maple Ridge.

“This may have been the largest crowd that I have ever seen, and I’ve been coming to this since 1997.”

He reasoned that the large crowd may have been because the weather was sunny and mild and people had no excuse not to go to the service.

Also, the city this year set up a “Gallery of He-roes” Facebook page, on which residents sent in pictures and stories of family members in the services.

What Armstrong liked was that several pictures of younger veterans that were submitted.

The Golden Ears Preschool has been part of downtown’s landscape for years, since 1988, first out of the old Cam Neely arena, then the Ma-ple Ridge Leisure Centre.

But next August, it could be hunt-ing for a new home if it loses out in a competitive bid process for use of the city-owned space.

And that worries the non-profit Golden Ears Preschool Association, which counts on volunteers to help with the administrative chores.

“We’ve been there a long time,” says Blake Whitelaw, one of the di-rectors of the association.

Successive generations have had their first few years of school there and one former student is now a di-rector, while another former student did her teaching practicum there.

Whitelaw said if the preschool los-es out on the bid and can’t resign a lease, it will have to look elsewhere. A new location could mean costly renos and rents higher than the

$600 a month they pay now.“There’s a whole bunch of un-

knowns for us right now,” said Whitelaw.

“It’s kind of scary, because we’ve been a partner with the city for 28 years. Especially for the teachers, it’s a real stressful situation.”

Currently, there are 51 pre-school-ers attending the school, open from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. After those hours, the city uses the space for other pur-poses.

Whitelaw says the 800 sq. foot space is in a prime location and the lease amount is a good deal.

When the Leisure Centre was built, the pre-school space was spe-cifically built for that purpose.

Danielle Pope, with Maple Ridge-Pitt Meadows parks and leisure ser-vices, says that the lease expires for good in 2016.

“This was their last right to re-new,” she said. “So typically, what we would do is go out to market.”

That’s to ensure fairness in the process, she explained.

The city is also in the process of hiring a consultant who will analyze the best use of the spaces within the Leisure Centre. The city will wait until that is completed before pro-ceeding with seeking bids on the pre-school space.

Preschool may haveto find new homeGolden Ears Preschool has operating in downtown Maple Ridge since 1988

For the recordMaple Ridge municipal staff do not receive free admission or registration to parks and recreation services. A recent online comment, published in the Nov. 6th edition, contained incorrect informa-tion. City staff members and their families pay for the services that they use.

The Golden Ears Unit-ed Church congregation didn’t wait for the new government to kickstart the Syrian refugee pro-gram in order to make good an election prom-ise. The church has al-ready filed an application to bring in people that desperately need a new home.

Now members are hop-ing that paperwork to bring over a Kurdish fam-ily of four from Iran won’t be buried under the gov-ernment’s election prom-ise to bring in refugees from Syria.

“It’s wonderful that the government is taking on the promise to bring in 25,000 Syrians by the end of the year,” said Leenane Shiels, with Golden Ears. “We don’t know what that means for processing time for our application because they’re non-Syr-ians.”

It’s been a tense time for

the family, which is now waiting in Turkey, living in one room.

“It’s a family of four, mom and dad who are both in their late 30s, and an 11-year-old boy and a two-year-old boy.”

“The situation for Kurds is very dangerous in Tur-key at the moment,” said Shiels.

Turkey recently launched air strikes against Kurdish forces, an ethnic minority in Tur-key, although both are supposed to be fighting ISIS.

Sponsoring a refugee family requires a year-long commitment, but most church groups help the arrivals from beyond that time period.

It could be that the federal government uses different departments to process private refugees sponsorships and govern-ment-sponsored applica-tions.

“But I’m guessing that all resources are going to be focusing on the 25,000

government-sponsored refugees. We’re unsure at the moment about what it means for applications that are currently in the system.”

Shiels said it can take from months to a year to get a refugee family into Canada, while the cost for sponsoring a refugee fam-ily for a year is $27,000. Fortunately, the mom’s sister, Marziyeh, who lives in Coquitlam, has already raised $20,000, and the United Church has con-tributed $5,000.

“I think we’ve raised about $1,000,” Shiels said.

Financing the effort is up to churches or who-ever is the sponsor.

“In private refugee sponsorships, the private sponsor takes on the full cost.”

Shiels said the time for processing a refugee ap-plication often depends on where the refugees are located and whether they have the proper docu-mentation.

On Tuesday, the UN

high commissioner for refugees, António Guterres, called Canada’s goal of bringing in anoth-er 25,000 refugees a “huge gesture of solidarity with the Syrian people and the countries neighbour-ing Syria, which together are hosting more than four million refugees and bearing the brunt of the crisis.”

The St. Patrick’s Parish on 121st Avenue in Maple Ridge, however, is spon-soring two families from Syria.

One is a family of five, two daughters and a son, and the other is a family of seven, three daughters and two sons.

The first family is from Baghdad and the second is from Nineveh.

“Both are Catholic families who had fled to Turkey from Iraq due to the persecution of Chris-tians,” says St. Pat’s news-letter.

And both have been cleared by Turkish au-thorities.

Ten-year-old Janna smiled triumphantly

as she reached over the bow of her canoe to snap a trash grabber onto a plastic bottle.

Seconds later, her brother, Joseph, 8, excitedly paddled up in a separate canoe, hoping to add the same prize to his open garbage bag.

“They’re trying to see who could collect the most trash,” explained their mom, Dora Steiner.

Oct. 24 was a chilly fall afternoon. Rain clouds threatened to soak Janna and 16 other canoeists paddling Katzie Slough from Harris Road bridge westward to the Lougheed Highway overpass and beyond.

The event, sponsored by Lina Azeez of Watershed Watch, was the second of two garbage clean-ups this year inspired by Scott Magri, of the Katzie Slough Restora-tion Project.

Again, volunteers would fill a dozen bags with household and industrial trash.

“It included,” said Azeez, “a rake, styro-foam, bottles, buckets, chairs, and empty fertilizer bags.”

Janna could have been watching Saturday TV. She elected to collect a mess left by adults, instead.

“Why?” I asked. “I wanted to help the earth.” That sentiment was echoed by a long-

time Alouette Field Naturalist Fran Pattison and local scout leader Simon Matthews.

“I’ve heard of Scott’s work with the slough, and I’d love to see him succeed,” said Matthews. “Our group is sponsored by ARMS and does a number of restora-tion projects. If we can get Pitt Meadows to supply the plants, we can provide a decent amount of labor. I’m sure we can come down and do clearing and plantings a couple of times a year.”

Pattison had never canoed. She was nervous about getting into one without knowing how to paddle, but decided to join the slough clean-up anyway.

“The idea of a nature-appreciation op-portunity that contributes to a healthier environment made me want to do the trip,” said Pattison, adding she “wasn’t surprised” to see the abundance and variety of local waterfowl – ducks, coots, kingfishers, hawks, eagles.

“We’re so blessed to live in this incred-ibly natural place. It’s time to start doing something that nourishes this gift of nature in our city.”

This time and last, Azeez set fish traps that we later checked to gauge numbers and species. We found an abundance of pumpkinseed fish, a catfish, and protected three-spined sticklebacks, and multi-colored sculpins, pretty fish that can exist in

oxygen deficient water. A city-funded inventory in 2013 listed

nine species, including perch, brown bullhead, northern pike minnow, large-mouth bass, carp, black crappies, coho, and cutthroat trout. Most never head out to the Pitt River. Those that do – coho and trout – are ground up by the antiquated Kennedy pump station, which isn’t fish friendly and should be replaced.

“Katzie Slough is able to provide suit-able habitat,” concluded the Scott report. “Maintenance work to improve fish habitat and protect the city’s infrastructure could be performed during the late summer months.”

Katzie Slough could be a proud rec-reational badge for Pitt Meadows, an ecological wonderland for kids like Janna and Joseph. It’s an irrigation ditch and dump site. Millfoil weed reduces dissolved oxygen while constricting the channel. Water temperatures – above 21 degrees this summer - kill trout and coho that should thrive. In the summer – with the next drought – farmers will again fight to pull clean water for crops from Katzie sludge that gets deeper each year.

One remedy is to run more water through here from the Kennedy pump, but so far the city has failed to do this, citing flood concerns that can be avoided with new thinking and investment.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s cabinet is a re-freshing take on building federal leadership.

A scan of the cabinet line-up looks largely like a snapshot of today’s Canada. Our population includes roughly half men and women; we are no longer a country of First Nations, French and English but rather a diverse tapestry of people and cultures that includes these three but also so much more.

In decades past, the federal cabinet, like so many areas of North American culture, was dominated by white males, largely because that was who was in a position to run for parliament.

In more recent years, women candidates began making inroads into higher-raking positions, and with them individuals of different ethnicities who before had been sorely under-represented.

Post-election, our expectations for cabinet were primarily regionally based – prime minis-ters needed to assign positions to both French and English MPs, and ensure different regions were shown a little love with a seat at the table. Other than the French/English mix, cultural considerations and gender balance were rarely discussed.

Today, Trudeau has given Canadians a cabi-net that while not perfect, better represents our country today, where a good selection of talent allowed him to challenge outdated stereotypes of what constitutes “merit.”

Should someone be chosen for a particular portfolio simply because they are male, female, French, English, Inuit or Sikh?

No.But given the array of educated, skilled and ex-

perienced MPs from which to choose, Trudeau’s leadership team provides a welcome balance that more accurately reflects the nation it represents.

Editor, The News:Re: The silence before and fol-

lowing the announcement of the pending demise of the parks and leisure services commission is deafening.

Here is an organization that has served two commu-nities very well for over 20 years being summarily dis-banded.

The decision has been made in-camera with no public consultation, despite of the fact that thousands of our citizens are affected, many of them children.

The News reported that a

deal to remedy identified cost issues was in the works. This has apparently been abandoned. As far as one can tell, there has been no at-tempt at mediation.

The benefits of the cooper-ative model have been many. Both arts and sports orga-nizations and have achieved synergies that would not have materialized had each city been operating indepen-dently.

Pitt Meadows and Maple Ridge share so much natu-rally. The school district, host of many sports facilities, is one entity for all our kids.

The health region and hos-pital are the same.

The RCMP is one unit. The geography lends itself

to cooperation. Here we are, all the people

residing between the Pitt and Stave rivers, bound by the Fraser River and the Coast Mountains. Not such a big area, and so well de-fined. Citizens move around it with ease. Many have lived in both places.

Why are we so hast-ily abandoning a model that demonstrates inter-city co-operation, effective use of re-sources, and which encour-

ages positive relationships among our citizens?

All with hardly a murmur in either place, at any level.

It all looks like a bad di-vorce.

I urge politicians in each city to give it their best shot.

At the very least, seek me-diation and speak with your citizens before undoing a proud history of creative, co-operative endeavor.

Editor, The News:Re: Masse can’t make meetings (The News, Nov. 4).It is unfortunate that elected representatives are not able

to make meetings when they are pre-scheduled. It was my understanding that individuals who run for

local office are doing so, so they will be the voice for the people who elected them.

Maybe they should think first on how they will prioritize their time and handle their own affairs before excepting these positions.

Editor, The News:Re: Sockanee not coming back to

South Alouette (The News, Nov. 6)I read with interest, and frankly, dis-

gust and amazement, that ARMS still has to “convince” B.C. Hydro to build a fishway to allow fish access to and from Alouette Lake to the South Alouette

River. There should be no convincing re-

quired; B.C. Hydro should do the right thing, or be forced to do it, and do it quickly.

Hydro has known since 1926, when the dam was built, that it wiped out the sockeye run.

Why should it build the fish ladder?How about using Justin Trudeau’s

recent and priceless answer to another stupid question: “because it is 2015.”

“We’re going to plant ourselves across the street from the shelter,” he added later.

The intent is not to provoke or con-front anyone, just to make the point that people still have questions.

“Whether you agree with the shel-ter or not, it was kind of dumped on the business area.”

Politicians talk about transparency,

but Telford questions how much transparency occurred when the shelter’s location was announced this past summer.

Maple Ridge council made a deci-sion on a location in a closed meet-ing and because rezoning wasn’t required, a public meeting wasn’t needed.

The shelter closes on March 31, but Telford is concerned about the selec-

tion process for any permanent shel-ter that may follow.

Matt Kelso has several questions about the shelter that he wants an-swered, as well.

He met with Rain City Housing staff Nov. 4, but still hasn’t received detailed replies to a list of questions.

He was told that people can inject drugs on site, providing they follow the “buddy system,” in which two us-ers watch each other, to ensure nei-ther overdoses.

He’s questioning the effectiveness

of the shelter, saying that people are not being encouraged to kick their habits.

“So someone can stay there for six months, don’t take advantage of any of the programs, stay on drugs the whole time, use everyday till it closes. Are they still allowed to stay? They said yes.”

Rain City pointed that out in a fact sheet when the shelter opened Oct. 1.

“Abstinence is not a requirement for staying at the shelter, but is one

of many possible positive outcomes that will occur for folks staying at the shelter,” said the fact sheet.

It follows the Housing First pro-gram, in which people are first found homes, then helped to deal with whatever issues they have, rather than insisting on abstinence as a condition of getting housed.

Kelso was also told that staff don’t know how many people with crimi-nal records are staying at the shelter and that there’s only one counsellor there once a week.

The operator of the third medicinal mari-juana dispensary in Ma-ple Ridge has met with Mayor Nicole Read and councillors and plans to continue operating un-der a “compassion club” model, until the new Liberal government le-galizes the drug.

Paul Hallelujah opened Weeds Glass and Gifts with partner Don Briere on 225th Avenue on Oct. 19, with the hope that newly elected Prime Minis-ter Justin Trudeau will follow through on his promise of legalization.

The downtown Maple Ridge shop was soon visited by bylaw en-forcement officers, who ticketed him for operat-ing without a business licence.

Tuesday he met with Read and two council-lors.

“They stuck to their hard line,” he said. “Fed-erally, it’s illegal.”

However, he found Coun. Craig Spiers was sympathetic to his cause, and is optimis-tic about his future in Maple Ridge. For now, Hallelujah will continue to operate as a dispensa-ry, selling mostly edible marijuana products to people who need them for medicinal purposes.

“It’s a grey zone. No-body really wants to stop us from giving clean medicine to peo-ple,” he said.

And ultimately, he would like to sell legal, recreational marijuana from the same site.

His partner, Brier, owns 21 sites that sell medicinal pot, as well as paraphernalia.

Read said whether Hallelujah operates as a medical marijuana dispensary is a matter for the criminal justice system.

“Right now, it’s up to the RCMP,” said the mayor.

She reiterated to Hal-lelujah that until new legislation is intro-duced, any dispensaries are operating outside the law.

Read said council will have a discussion about dispensaries from a land-use perspective – appropriate zoning for

such operations, in the coming weeks.

She was not sure council will have an ap-petite for drafting a lot of regulations for dis-pensaries the way Van-couver has.

“This is still early days,” she said.

She would rather wait for direction from Trudeau’s government.

In the meantime, Hal-lelujah said there is a brand of vape-juice for electronic cigarettes being sold locally that contains THC.

“We’re losing our mar-ket share really fast.”

Spiers said the issue is clearly a criminal mat-ter that should be en-forced by the RCMP, if anyone. He doesn’t want

the city to get embroiled in the issue.

“My opinion is that’s inappropriate,” said Spi-ers. “This is in flux, so why would we step into it?”

The former NDP can-didate said Prime Min-ister Stephen Harper showed no leadership on the issue.

“They didn’t want to deal with it, so we end up with the mess we’ve got.”

He favours legaliza-tion.

“Education around drugs is the way to go,” he said. “Prohibition has never worked, and never can.”

And he said the dis-pensary model has proven to be an efficient

way to do it, with rec-reational distribution eventually folded into that system.

Skeptics notwith-standing, Spiers said there are sick people who rely on medicinal marijuana.

“These are people with AIDS and cancer and long-term illnesses who need medicine, and pot is the most benign thing going.”

He said dispensa-ries generally create no problems for local government, compared with bars, which “are always having police is-sues.”

Spiers said local au-thorities should “back off ” and “let the feds figure it out.”

A B.C. man convicted of trafficking underage girls in the sex trade, including one from Maple Ridge, has been handed a jail sentence of 23 years.

Reza Moazami’s sen-tence was three years longer than the pris-on term Crown had been seeking, and was handed down by Justice Catherine Bruce Tues-day in B.C. Supreme Court in Vancouver.

The 30-year-old was convicted a year ago on 30 charges, includ-ing living off the avails of prostitution, sexual assault and sexual in-terference. His crimes involved 11 teens, some as young as 14, and he used physical and verbal abuse to force the girls into working as prosti-tutes. He also drugged and raped them.

A young girl from Ma-ple Ridge was among his victims, and Diane

Sowden, the executive director of the Children of the Street Society, said no community is safe from this kind of exploitation.

“It happens in every single community, es-pecially now with tech-nology,” said Sowden, who works for a non-profit society which works to prevent the sexual exploitation of children in B.C.

She said cases of sex-ual exploitation rarely go to trial, because fearful victims are of-ten unwilling to give a statement. In the Moaz-ami case, more victims came forward after he breached house arrest, and was taken into cus-tody.

He was the first to be convicted of human trafficking in B.C.

Moazami will be giv-en five years credit for time served awaiting trail, leaving just under 18 year remaining on his sentence.

ICBC no longer allows customers who are on monthly payment plans to make special lump-sum or early payments by credit card.

There were 55,000 such payments made last year – a small frac-tion of the 1.4 million customers on monthly payment plans.

Regular monthly pay-ments have always been required to be by pre-authorized debit from a bank account, but early payments in advance of the regular ones or lumpsum payments to end the monthly plan could be made by credit

card, said spokesman Adam Grossman.

The move to end that option effective Nov. 1 is expected to save ICBC up to $1 million a year in credit card merchant fees.

Monthly plan users can still make early or lumpsum payments by debit, cheque or cash.

“We as a company have to look at any of the pre-mium costs that we can remove,” Grossman said.

About 44 per cent of all motorists use an ICBC payment plan, while the rest pay their annual insurance all at once, many of them by credit card. That option is not affected by the change.

’11th hour’Parks from front

Mayor John Becker and Couns. Tracy Miyashita and Bill Dingwall sup-ported the staff initiative.

“Staff are at capacity. This is a huge undertak-ing. The clock is ticking fast,” said Miyashita. “We need somebody actively working on a plan – what is this going to look like, how many staff do we need, what programs are we going to offer?”

Miyashita, who previ-ously served as a parks and recreation coordina-tor in Pitt Meadows, said there are people in the community who have already indicated they would serve on a steering committee, but someone is needed to manage the process.

Becker argued that ex-

isting city hall staff lack the capacity to do the job, and it is not reason-able or desirable to have parks and rec staff doing an analysis of the job they have been doing.

“Sooner or later, we’re going to be spending this kind of money,” predicted Becker, adding that parks and rec is a multi-million dollar budget.

“I think it’s money well spent, and I think we need to spend it pretty damn quick,” said Becker.

The two sides also dis-agreed over whether Pitt Meadows council should see a confidential report presented by senior parks and rec staff to Maple Ridge council, which re-sulted in the decision to leave the partnership.

Councils are limited in what they can discuss in private – land transac-

tions, labour or person-nel issues and legal mat-ters.

Bell argued that some of the information Pitt Meadows is looking for may be found in that re-port.

It was the main issue for Stark, who said hiring of a consultant should be delayed until council sees that report.

“We haven’t seen the report from parks and leisure senior staff that went to Maple Ridge council, who had a closed meeting and voted for di-vorce,” said Stark. “I, for one, would like to see that report.

“We paid for 20 per cent of that report,” agreed Coun. Janis Elkerton, saying Pitt council should be entitled to review it.

Dingwall opposed asking for the report,

because of strained rela-tions between the cities.

“To go now and de-mand closed documents from Maple Ridge that they had, in this environ-ment, is again poking the bear,” said Dingwall.

The mayor agreed.“I think it is highly un-

likely that Maple Ridge will disgorge that report they received in camera,” said Becker. “Even if they were to do so – so what? We may or may not agree with it, but they have made their decision,” he added.

“We need to get our act together, and move on.”

Jones spoke against any delay in hiring the consultant, saying that if council wants stakehold-er and citizen engage-ment, the process needs to begin.

“This is going to take us right up to the 11th hour,” said Jones.

Although she expressed concerns about duplicat-ing services, the cost of the consultant, and her desire to see the confi-dential report, Elkerton voted with Becker, Ding-wall and Miyashita to hire the consultant.

Mayor Nicole Read re-fused to confirm that her council considered a re-port from recreation staff that has not been viewed by Pitt Meadows.

“Anything we deal with in closed [meeting], is closed. I can’t discuss any details,” said Read.

She said the same confi-dentiality rules would ap-ply if Pitt Meadows coun-cil requested information from a closed meeting.

Tuesday was a coun-cil committee meeting, which provides an op-portunity to consider and debate matters that will be referred to regular meetings. The result is a recommendation from the council in committee, that is generally, but not always, adopted at the regular meeting. The next regular council meeting is Nov. 17.


The Katzie First Nation is beginning its leader-ship selection process this month, and Chief Susan Miller will let her name stand for re-election.

A pre-nomination meeting will be held on Nov. 25, followed by nominations during the third week of January.

If a band member nom-

inates her, Miller said she will let her name stand as a candidate for chief. The election would be held in February, and a new council will begin a new two-year term starting April 1.

After her first term, Miller said there is a steep learning curve for a chief.

“I’ve learned a lot. And one of the things I’ve learned is that there’s still a lot more to learn,” she

said. In the present term,

the Katzie opened a new $4.3 million community health centre, and have programming there six days per week – from pre-school, to kids playing basketball in the gymna-sium, to adult counsel-ling.

They have also re-en-gaged a residency bylaw from 1988, which sets out the terms and conditions

for people living in their community. She said it is a tool that can be used to remove non-band mem-ber residents who are “unsavoury characters,” with the assistance of the RCMP.

The band has also started opposition to a new quarry proposed for Sheridan Hill.

In the 2014 election, there were 260 eligible voters.

MID-MONTH NOVEMBER 2015

This Saturday, November 14, is the fi nal Farmers Market for 2015. Thank you to the owners of Grow & Gather, located at 24565 Dewdney Trunk Road, for sharing their space and giving us all an extra month of great market shopping ‘under cover’. The hours are 10:00 am until 3:00 pm and the market continues to offer a superb selection of fresh vegetables, baking and preserves.

While the market is fi lled with tasty treats for your pantry this a time when our minds turn to holiday shopping. Imagine a Christmas basket fi lled with jams, jellies, chutneys, fruits and veggies harvested at the peak of fl avour and preserved like your grandmother used to do. There’s pottery, jewelry, soap and candles all produced by artists in our community. This is a place to fi nd treasures that your friends and family will really appreciate when it’s time to open the gifts or for ‘host gifts’ as you visit with friends over the next six weeks.

This is one fi nal chance to pick up fresh baking – breads, pies, tarts and special ethnic delights that you will crave until the market opens again next spring. Come on down and enjoy this

fi nal Haney Farmers Market and make sure you get your 2016 membership. Memberships make a great gift and they ensure that you get the weekly email updates so you know who’s at the market. See you Saturday.

Council will meet from 10:00 am until 3:00 pm on Tuesday, December 1, Wednesday, December 2, and Thursday, December 3. Each day will include Department Presentations and at the end of each day members of the public can ask questions during the Public Question and Answer period.

In addition, there will be a live Q&A session held on Thursday evening, December 3, from 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm where members of the public can ask questions relating to the 2016 -2020 Financial Plan in person, by email, using the City’s Facebook page or via Twitter.

INFORMED: Santa Claus Is Coming To TownMaple Ridge Celebrates Christmas in the Park Dec. 5Mark your calendars, because Santa Claus is coming to town on Saturday, December 5 and he’s doing it in style. The festival runs from 4:00 to 8:00 pm with the parade starting at 6:00

pm sharp. The Peace Tree at the corner of 224 Street and Haney Place becomes the largest Christmas tree in the Fraser Valley and marks the start of the parade.

There’s so much to do – Memorial Peace Park, in fact all of downtown Maple Ridge is decorated with thousands of lights and the traditional red bells that signal that the holidays are upon us. There will be music at the bandstand, cookies, popcorn and hot chocolate, a chance to visit with Santa and drop off your Christmas wish list in his special mailbox.

This annual festival is a delight for kids of all ages and it is made possible by an army of volunteers. If you’d like to be one of ‘Santa’s Elves’ and lend your help, or if you’d like more information about the Festival and parade just go online to www.mapleridgechristmasfestival.com.

ENGAGED: CP Holiday TrainJim Cuddy is back for the 2015 Visit to Maple Ridge On Friday, December 18 at 7:00 pm the CP Holiday train will make its way into the Port Haney West Coast Express station for the annual visit. This is the single largest fundraiser for the Friends In Need Food Bank, so we wanted to get the word out as soon as possible.

Maple Ridge Firefi ghters will be out in the community the week before the visit collecting donations for the event. As well, the Friends In Need Food Bank volunteers will be on hand collecting cash and non-perishable food item donations that evening.

The train will pull into the station with the stage portion coming to rest just outside the historic Billy Miner Pub and restaurant.

That’s the place you will be able to see Jim Cuddy and a group of great musicians perform. You can take the kids for a walk

further west to see the train engine up close at the West Coast Express station.

It’s a magical evening that runs for about one hour. The best way to get there is to park downtown and walk down 224 Street, through the tunnel right out to the Port Haney Wharf area. There will

be volunteer Firefi ghters and Fire Youth Academy members helping out the Friends In Need Food Bank volunteers. There’s hot chocolate by donation and the train and Jim Cuddy’s performance will make this a ‘must see’ event. Please make sure you bring a donation for the Food Bank.

Ridge Meadows RCMP arrested a 23-year-old Maple Ridge man after a stabbing incident Tues-day.

At approximately 7 p.m., an altercation be-tween two men took place in the area of the Pitt Meadows library on Harris Road.

Police believe the sus-pect stabbed another man during a fight, then ran off.

An extensive search by police, including the as-sistance of the Integrated Police Dog Services, led to the apprehension of the suspect.

He was arrested with-out incident in the 21500 block of Dewdney Trunk Road in Maple Ridge at approximately 9:30 p.m.

The 19-year-old victim was taken to hospital with what is believed to be non-life threatening injuries. “Ridge Mead-ows RCMP want to ac-knowledge the quick ac-tions of a youth worker at the Pitt Meadows rec centre for her assistance in helping assist the vic-tim with some first aid before B.C. Ambulance Service personnel ar-rived,” said Cpl. Brenda Winpenny.

“The accused is very well known to police. Thankfully the injuries the victim suffered do not appear to be serious, and it is expected he will make a full recovery.”

“”The accused remains in custody for a hearing later today.

• Anyone with infor-mation regarding this

incident is asked to call Ridge Meadows RCMP at 604-463-6251.

Tire rim theftA 28-year-old man

was arrested at a Maple Ridge tire shop a day after another theft.

Several aluminum tire rims were stolen from the shop Friday, Nov. 6.

The suspect was ar-rested about 3:30 a.m. the next day after breaking into a fenced compound at the busi-ness.

The lead investiga-tor for the RCMP hap-pened to be there at the time and saw the man leaving with two more tire rims.

The suspect is known to police.

Holding heroin?A man, found sleeping

in his truck in downtown Maple Ridge on Monday, was arrested with what police believe were sever-al individual packages of heroin, as well as credit cards and drivers’ li-cences.

A 38-year-old man was arrested and ap-peared in court.

Decision Friday on double [email protected]

It was in October, five years ago when Debbie Dyer lost her daughter Beckie in a traffic acci-dent not far from her Pitt Meadows home.

It was September 2013 when Dyer learned the driver of the vehicle in-volved in the crash was acquitted of dangerous driving causing death.

This Friday, Debbie Dyer learns if the Su-preme Court of Canada will order a new trial or uphold the original ac-quittal of Andelina Kris-tina Hecimovic, who was charged after an Oct. 19, 2010 collision on Lougheed Highway at Harris Road, that claimed the lives of Re-becca ‘Beckie’ Dyer, 19, and her boyfriend, John-

ny De Oliveira, 21.Debbie Dyer has fol-

lowed the case through the courts, pressing for a new trial and a different decision.

During the accident, a Toyota driven by Heci-movic skidded sideways over a concrete median, flipped and landed on top of the couple’s Su-zuki Swift. Hecimovic was driving in the right-turn-only lane when she crossed the intersec-tion of Harris Road and Lougheed Highway on a red light. An expert es-timated she hit the con-crete median at a speed of between 100 or 110 km/h.

In the initial trial in September 2013, Justice Miriam Gropper ruled that Hecimovic was not trying to beat the red

light. Hecimovic told the court she was thinking about her shift and sud-denly smelled something odd as she approached the intersection. When she looked at her scrubs she noticed vomit on her shirt and burst into tears. She was trying to wipe the tears off her face and focus on the road when she realized she had run a red light.

Gropper found that Hecimovic’s behaviour was not a “marked de-parture from the norm” because many people speed along that stretch of Lougheed Highway.

The B.C. Appeal Court ordered a new trial last year after the Crown ap-pealed.

Debbie Dyer said there has to be a conviction, otherwise the same ex-

cuse can be used in simi-lar cases.

Just because many motorists drive that way doesn’t make it right, said Dyer.

“It’s the law. In this in-stance, it makes it sound like it’s OK to do that.

“Justice has to prevail at some point.”

• Dyer is marking the occasion of the fifth an-niversary of her daugh-ter’s death with a fund-raiser, Nov. 25, 6 p.m., at Samz Pub, on the corner of Lougheed Highway and Harris Road, near the location of the acci-dent.

It’s a fundraiser for Cythera Transition House at Christmas.

Dyer said her daughter would have supported women fleeing abusive relationships.

Myths & realities:

“Mom, they don’t murder girls”

▾ MYTH: Girls and women aren’t allowed to join gangs: Reality: Girls are joining gangs across Canada and there are many documented reports of

them being extremely violent. Girls are often used to hold and/or transport drugs

and/or guns because the girls and the gangsters don’t think

that the police will stop the girl…they are wrong.

along with her daughter’s

dog Ferdinand, sit on a

to her daughter’s brutal

gang murder in 2009.

Brianna’s murder

remains unsolved.

It may be time to ensure your home is even more prepared for fall and winter than normal as just a casual perusal

of newspapers, the Internet, and television broadcasts warn of expected winter storms.

The approaching winter could end up one of the warmest on record for Canada, as a whole, according to international weather experts, as a strong El Niño persists into the upcoming winter season.

Some scientists are predicting this winter’s El Niño will be the strongest since 1998 — when weather-related home damage claims skyrocketed along the West Coast of North America.

In September, the Globe and Mail newspaper quoted a University of Victoria professor as saying, “The ‘monster’ El Niño weather system expected to hit Canada’s West Coast later this fall and winter could lead to higher tides, flooding and erosion in low-lying coastal areas.”

In the article Ian Walker, a UVic geography professor, says, “Now this year is a pretty monster El Niño, probably the largest ever witnessed.”

El Niño is a natural, tropical, ocean-temperature phenomenon, where warm water in the Pacific moves along the equator toward South America’s northern coast and then turns north, up as far as Alaska.

“As warm things expand, we see a higher water level, on the order of tens of centimetres, depending on where you are,” Walker says in the article. “So that’s superimposed on the tides and storms are then superimposed on top of that.”

So warm, wet storms can be expected in B.C.’s Lower Mainland over the next few months.

So how can homeowners prepare for El Niño? • Drainage: Heavy storms can put extra

strain on gutters and drainage systems.Ensure early that your drainage systems —

eaves-troughs, downpipes, and rock-drain beds — are cleared out and sturdy. They can expect to see a heavy workload during the next few months.

Ensure all fallen leaves and other debris have been cleared from your gutters and that the gutters themselves are solidly attached to the house.

Also, rake up any fallen leaves in your yard.This will ensure that water will not back up,

into your home, after a torrential downpour.Rain gutters help avoid house exterior damage

from water splashing up and prevents soil erosion.

Plus, when gutters over flow, water can wick up under roof shingles and cause damage to the roof sheeting. Water hitting the ground and splashing up on the house can stain stucco and paint, or start deteriorating wood siding.

Gutters should be inspected and cleaned every fall, after trees have dropped their leaves. Perforated gutter guards can be installed to prevent leaves from accumulating and clogging gutters. Gutters can be cleaned by hand or with a leaf blower.

Wire strainers can be installed at the top of a downspout to prevent downspout clogging. Water from the downspouts should be directed away from the house foundation.

And brackets that fasten gutters to the house should be inspected annually as well as the joints for leaks.

• Batten down: Any house accessory that strong winds can rip, tear, or pull away from the house should be taken down for the season.

Strong winds often accompany El Niño storms can cause a lot of damage to homes that aren’t adequately prepared for them.

Consider falling tall trees that are dying, weak or might be susceptible to strong winds. Frequently in wet-and-windy winter storms, the damage caused by large trees falling on homes is

the greatest. • Roofin’ it: Lastly, check your roof for worn

or old shingles. Windy storms can tear weary roofing from a house and leave it susceptible to water damage.

If you suspect your roof needs repairs, and it’s more than you feel comfortable working on yourself, call a professional.

Many roofing companies will come and repair various roofing types to ensure they are safe for winter storms.

Lastly, stock up on hot chocolate, books, movies, and warm blankets so you can curl up on the couch with a warm drink and a good story.

You don’t want to have to venture out more than usual during story weather.

Preparing your home for El Niño

The torrentail downpour that soaked competitors at the Fraser Val-ley championships on Oct. 28 made an unwelcomed retun at the B.C. high school cross country finals, wreaking havoc on the course and chilling run-ners to the bone.

Despite the conditions, the MRSS junior boys were able to overcome the rain and cold to make school his-tory, taking home its first-ever team bronze medal in Vancouver on Nov. 7.

MRSS head coach Ken Elphick said the race was more about survival and getting to the finish line in one piece than anything else.

“I think the day was really about guts,” said Elphick. “It was overcom-ing the conditions and being men-tally and physically strong enough. So much energy is spent on a day like that just keeping yourself warm.”

He said race officials had to adjust the course after each race because some of the corners were so tight, kids were constantly falling.

“They had to move the ropes so they could have fresh grass each time.”

In the end, the junior boys were able to persevere and make their way onto the podium.

The team was lead by Jorrin Len-ton, who finished the 4,700-metre event in a time of 19:27.80, good for 11th overall in the team competition standings.

MRSS teammate Marshall Shupe finished just behind in 12th place with a time of 19:30.29. Nico Aron finished in 32nd, Nick Kerschbaum was 56th, Jack Sayerwas 57th and

Nolan Varga was 78th. There were 23 teams in the event. Elphick said the event gave the

team a good sense of how far the runners have come, and how far they need to go to move up in the stand-ings.

Overall standings are accumulated using the team’s placement of its top four runners.

Ridge’s top four runners were a combined 111th. R.E. Mountain was tops with 66, while Dover Bay was second with 70.

In the junior girls’ event, Ilse Rafter lead the way for MRSS with a time of 19:16.41, helping propel the team to sixth out of the 25-team event. Mar-quesis Haintz finished 26th, followed by Brooke Parry in 34th, Emily Mor-ley in 43rd, Bronte Elphick-Miner in 55th and Blythe Parry in 59th.

In senior girls, Jamie Hennessey continued her strong season, finish-ing seventh in team competition with a time of 18:35.72. The result helped lead the team to 13th out of 24 teams.

In senior boys, Alex Ross was the top Ridge runner, finishing the 6,300-metre course in a time of 27:19.56. The boys finished 17th out of 28 teams.

Noteables• Graeme Roberts of Westview fin-

ished eighth overall in the indiviual junior boys’ division, with a time of 18:47. There were 210 runners.

• Madelyn Huston of Thomas Haney was 11th in senior girls with a time of 18:28. There were 218 runners.

• Liam Foster of Pitt Meadows was 52nd in senior boys with a time of 27:08. There were 240 racers.

The Taegeuk Taekwondo club took its show on the road and came home with 10 medals, including six gold at the Pan American Taekwondo Club Championships in Portland on Nov. 7.

Club coach Michell Ge said the team built momentum from the opening match as black belt Ari-anna Caredda defeated a long-

time rival from Washington in the 30-kilogram division.

“They have fought together countless times and loss after loss, it never deterred Arianna’s fighting spirit,” said Ge.

Caredda won the match 10-0 and went on to set up the team spirit and the momentum for the rest of the day, said Ge.

Caredda went on to win gold. Joining her on top of the podium was Talia Clarke in the black belt

47kg division, along with Ro-drigo Herrera at 53 kg, Santiago Herrera in the junior boys’ 63-kg division, and Ashlyn Arnold in the junior girls’ 63-kg division.

Black belt Kyler Arnold took home silver in the 45-kg cadet boys’ division, while Malakai Ayi-Bonte won bronze in junior boys’ 63-kg, along with Drew Clarke in youth boys’ 30-kg and Jacob Badalucco in the youth boys’ 35-kg division.

The Ridge Meadow Flames continue to climb in the standings after strolling into the Ladner Leisure Centre and knocking off the Delta Ice Hawks 4-1 on Tuesday, Nov. 10.

The Flames, a team that usually gives up more shots than it gets, reversed that trend, taking the game to the Ice Hawks, firing 49 shots on net, including 19 in the opening frame.

The Flames Jake Hol-land opened the scor-ing on the powerplay midway through the first period. Dale How-ell and Nolan Ferguson picked up helpers. Hol-land leads the Flames in scoring this year, with 10 goals and nine assists.

Despite being out-played, the Ice Hawks tied the game with just under three minutes left in the first,

The Flames capital-ized on the powerplay again with 1:53 left in the second period thanks to a goal from 6’5’’, 235-pound for-ward Bradley Cromp-ton, with assists going to Holland and Jacob Cronin.

Ridge scored with just 20 seconds left in the middle frame to jump ahead 3-1 when Nicho-las Maydaniuk buried a feed from Holland and Howell.

Crompton rounded out the scoring with his second of the game with just under two minutes left in the third.

Flames netminder Jake Hollett was named the game’s first star. Howell was named sec-ond star, while Cromp-ton made it a clean sweep taking the third star honours.

The win improved the Flames record to seven wins and eight losses, with one tie and two overtime defeats.

The team opened the season with a 5-4 overtime win over the Ice Hawks, then lost three straight, includ-ing a 10-2 drubbing at the hands of the Port Moody Panthers.

However, the team’s fortunes turned when they picked up Regina Pats’ prospect Hollett. At 6’5” and 185 pounds, the 16-year-old was the Regina Pats first pick in the 2014 bantam draft-er, going 13th overall.

Crompton is also making his presence on the score sheet felt this

year. The hulking forward is sec-

ond in team scoring with six goals and nine as-sists. The Flames

sit fourth in the Harold Brit-

tain conference stand-ings with 17, just one point back of Alder-grove. Mission leads the division and the league with 33, with Abbotsford in second with 25.

• The Flames are on the road to take on the Abbotsford Pilots on Friday, Nov. 13.

The Thomas Haney Thunder continue to roll-over the opposition in the Grade 8/9 boys’ soccer playoffs.

The Thunder defeated the L.A. Matheson Mustangs 6-2 in Fraser Valley quar-terfinal action on Nov. 9.

The Thunder trailed early before tying the score late in the first half.

The second half was a dif-ferent story, with the Thun-der erupting for five goals to bury any hopes the Mus-tangs had of an upset.

Marcus Tjernagel led the way with the hat-trick for the Thunder, while Ivica Fiegalstock had two goales and Kai Vockeroth had one.

The Thunder remain un-defeated on the season.

Thunder head coach Glenn Urquhart said his team showed great poise after a tight first half.

“The defence played an-other solid game, minimiz-ing the opposition’s chanc-es.” said Urquhart. “Nick Stroud played excellent in goal, making a number of saves and only allowing two goals on point-blank shots.”

The win sets up a show-down at home against the Eugene Reimer Ravens on Monday, Nov. 16 at 3 p.m. The Ravens are also unde-

feated, going 5-0 in league play, then beating the Brookswood Bobcats 2-1 on Monday in the quarter-finals.
