Election
Seniors wantto boost votesWhich municipality can raise voter turnoutthe most, the City or Township?by Matthew Claxtonmclaxton@langleyadvance.com
A group of Langley seniors advocates are chal-lenging local voters to hit the polls this Nov. 15and increase turnout above the recent very lowlevels.
In 2011, turnout for a highly contentiousLangley Township election was 25.9 per cent. Inthe City, it was just 20.9 per cent.
With the first four-year terms coming up forlocal leaders, this is an important election, saidMarilyn Fischer of Triple A Senior Housing.
Triple A is a coalition of local volunteer andadvocacy groups that spends much of its timecampaigning for affordable, accessible, andappropriate housing for seniors.
Fischer pointed to a number of local challen-ges, most notably in Squamish, where councilcandidate Peter Kent, a stuntman, has vowed toset himself on fire (non-fatally) if voter turnouttops 2011’s 40 per cent.
Triple A isn’t going to volunteer anyone to doa dangerous stunt, but they are encouraging alittle rivalry between City and Township, to seewhich can increase their voter turnout the most.
There are no prizes, but Fischer encouragedothers to offer incentives to help out with thefriendly contest.

An opposition group seekingchange on council is hostinga forum for Townshipcandidates.
by Matthew Claxtonmclaxton@langleyadvance.com
Despite the imposing nameof Unelection Langley, a localorganization is hoping to attractall of the Township mayoral andcouncil candidates to its debatethis Friday.
Unelection Langley was found-ed earlier this year by a groupof residents upset at a numberof the decisions of the currentcouncil.
“Obviously, there’s a lot ofpeople out there feeling thatthey’re not being heard,” saidAndy Schildhorn, the spokes-person for the group.
Over the summer, Unelectionposted a “report card” of the cur-rent council, giving five incum-bents a grade of F, two more C-grades, and two Bs. It is consider-ing endorsing a list of candidates,
said Schildhorn.The group’s issues are a col-
lection of the controversies thathave hit the Township overthe past three years, includ-ing the Brookswood OfficialCommunity Plan process, growthin Willoughby, land sales in GlenValley, the Wall development,and the Coulter Berry building inFort Langley.
Despite being highly criticalof the majority of the counciland many of their decisions,Schildhorn said hehopes to see mostof them at the allcandidates meet-ing.
“Our moderator,it’s going to behis forum,” saidSchildhorn.
The moder-ator will be Peter Holt, a formerSurrey Board of Trade CEO andmoderator of sustainability dia-logues for Metro Vancouver.
With the meeting to be held inthe George Preston RecreationCentre in Brookswood, there willbe questions about the future ofdevelopment in that neighbour-
hood, said Schildhorn.In addition to prepared ques-
tions, the meeting will have anopportunity for questions fromthe floor, said Schildhorn.
The Unelection group is a rela-tively new concept in LangleyTownship politics.
In the past, when there wasanger at an incumbent group ofcouncillors, most efforts havefocused on building a slate to runagainst them.
Most such efforts have failed.In the late 1990s,
then-mayor JohnScholtens and hisLangley LeadershipTeam group con-trolled four of thethen-seven councilseats. The LangleyCitizens Coalitionwas formed to
oppose and run against Scholtensin the 1999 election.
The vote left most members ofboth slates out in the cold, withthe independent Kurt Albertswinning the mayor’s chair.
The next major attempt to forma slate was undertaken by then-mayor Rick Green in 2011. After
a term of feuding with the incum-bents on his council, he tried tobring in a team of seven candi-dates. All of them lost.
Schildhorn was an early mem-ber of Live Langley, the only slaterunning in this election, with justtwo members. He left the groupas he was spending too muchtime on other issues.
While he said Live Langley hascarried on under candidates ClintLee and Kerri Ross, Schildhornacknowledges that some pastattempts at slates “just left a real-ly bad feeling with the generalpopulation.”
Instead of a large slate, oppon-ents of the direction of Townshipcouncil have linked up, throughmeeting in person and throughsocial media, said Schildhorn.
“I feel that momentum is grow-ing,” he said.
He won’t know if it’s enoughto change the composition of thecouncil until election day.
“Is the message getting out?”he said.
The all-candidates meeting isat the George Preston RecreationCentre, 20699 42nd Ave., from 7-9 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 7.

Police were busy, but therewere no major incidents onHalloween last Friday nightin Langley.
According to Cpl. HollyMarks, spokesperson for theLangley RCMP, officers seizedfireworks, dealt with some
drunk drivers, and broke upa couple of fights at houseparties.
There were 164 calls forpolice assistance during thecourse of the evening, com-pared to between 54 and 91calls for the previous four
Friday nights.Expecting a busy night
because Oct. 31 fell on aFriday, there was a biggerpolice presence on the streets.
“There were additionalpeople working that night,”said Marks.

The Law Society of B.C. ishaving a change of hearton the Trinity WesternUniversity law school.by Heather Colpittshcolpitts@langleyadvance.com
The Law Society of B.C. isoverturning its vote on acceptingTrinity Western University LawSchool graduates after a memberreferendum.
The society is following themandate from the member ref-erendum initiated by Victorialawyer Michael Mulligan.
Earlier this year the B.C. soci-ety debated whether to accreditTWU’s law school which thenmeans its grads can work in thisprovince. Without it, grads haveto take other measures.
The benchers of the law soci-ety (the group that governs theprofessional organization forlawyers in this province) voted25 to one to overturn its pre-vious approval. Another four
benchers abstained from thevote.
It’s the latest blow for thelaw school which is slated toopen September 2016 at the pri-vate Christian university. TWUrequires students and staff tosign a Community Covenantthat says they will abstain fromsex outside of marriage which isdefined as between a man andwoman.
The issue has sparked debateand controversyacross the countryas people debatewhether TWU’slaw school canturn out gradswho can representall Canadians.
TWU spokes-person Guy Saffold said the uni-versity is disappointed with thisoutcome.
“Trinity Western is open andwelcoming to all, and places ahigh importance on respect andcare for everyone in our com-munity,” Saffold said. “In linewith our mission and values,TWU’s new law school will
focus on developing leaders toserve those who are currentlyunderserved and vulnerable –that means educating lawyers towork in rural communities andthe not-for-profit sector.”
“The process for the TWUSchool of Law is ongoing,” saidSaffold. “We will take some timeto review our course of action inBritish Columbia.”
TWU is mounting court chal-lenges against the legal societies
of Nova Scotiaand Ontario fortheir decisionsnot to accreditthe school, whichmeans its gradscannot auto-matically practiselaw there. Those
cases are in court Dec 16-19 forNova Scotia and in mid January2015 for Ontario.
The Prairie provinces haveapproved TWU grads.
The provincial governmentapproved the law school butthat issue is not resolved. A peti-tioner represented by Torontolawyer Clayton Ruby com-
menced a lawsuit against the BCMinister of Advanced Educationto challenge the province’sDecember 2013 approval. TWUis a respondent to this litigation,which will be heard Dec. 1-5.
Langley MP Mark Warawasides with TWU, raising theissue in the House of Commonsin May and September.
“An individual’s ability tostudy and practise law shouldnot be restricted by their faith,”Warawa said in response to theLSBC overturning its approval.“Sadly, the referendum exposesan unconstitutional bias amongmembers of the Law Society. Itcould have serious implicationsfor the religious freedoms of allCanadians. I remain confidentthat this decision will be over-turned when the matter appearsbefore the Supreme Court ofCanada.”
TWU was founded in 1952,and has six professional schools,including business, nursing, edu-cation, human kinetics, graduatestudies and arts, media and cul-ture. The School of Law will beits seventh.

Underfunding was thecommon theme at theOct. 30 forum.by Heather Colpittshcolpitts@langleyadvance.com
Approximately 70 peopleattended an election forumco-hosted by the LangleyTeachers Association andCUPE 1260.
The Oct. 30 forum useda unique format morefamiliar to beauty pageantsthan political meetings.
All the candidates wereescorted from hall at theLangley Seniors ResourceCentre and were broughtin one by one to respondto the same opening ques-tion so they all had thesame time to think abouttheir answer.
They were asked whatthey consider the most
important issue for theLangley School Districtand how they wouldtackle it.
Candy Ashdown’s replywas funding.
“We are not going in theright direction,” she said.
She said there’s been toomany cuts since approxi-mately 2001/2002.
Shelley Coburn said thedistrict needs to engagestakeholders about itsspaces and how to bestuse its resources.
Rob McFarlane said theboard must keep focusedon student achievement.
“Education in the worldaround us is changing,”said McFarlane.
Lorraine Baldwin saidthe top issue is inadequatefunding but the districtmust be a stronger voice.
During the labour dis-pute she was vocal abouteducation issues and wroteto Langley’s two MLAsdaily, she said.
“We need to bandtogether with other dis-tricts and use a collectivevoice and demand thatthey fund schools prop-erly,” Baldwin said.
Megan Dykeman saidunderfunding starts atthe federal level whichdownloads on the provincewhich downloads ontolocal governments.
“We have a chronicunderfunding problem,”Dykeman said.
Trudy Handel and LisaMoore said more fundingis needed.
That was echoed byKristine Ketter who notedthat the provincial govern-ment expects districts to
absorb increasing costssuch as wage lifts, util-ity costs and now part ofschool construction.
Alison McVeigh saidthe biggest issue for thedistrict is “our facilitieschallenge.” Despite newschools in Willoughby,there’s still insufficientspace for all the students.
“We have advocated asa board for more schoolspace,” she said.
Suzanne Perrault saidthere needs to be bettercommunication betweenall the stakeholders in edu-cation.
“I think there’s a multi-tude of issues,” saidPamala-Rose Combs.
She added that untilshe’s actually elected andsees the inner workings ofthe district, there’s littleshe can propose to change.
“I would like to bepart of the solution,” sheadded.
Rod Ross said the bigissue for the district isthe Willoughby slope andovercrowding.
“If we don’t solve thatissue, we’re going to havesome serious challenges,”he said.
Ross said the schooldistrict must educate kidseven as the province foot-drags and said the districthas to look at new orinnovative ways to findfunds.
“I know being a teacherwhat is happening in theclassroom,” said DavidTod, who teaches inAbbotsford.
He said funding is thekey issue for districts.
Rosemary Wallace saidthe district must workwith the municipalitiesto find solutions to theWilloughby slope over-crowding.
The candidates alsodrew random questionsfrom a bowl on issuessuch as private schools,LGBTQ policy, technol-ogy, corporate sponsor-ship, where to obtain morefunds, and others.
The Langley TeachersAssociation has postedvideo from the forum onYouTube.

trustee forum 7-9 p.m. onNov. 6 at the Christian LifeAssembly, 21277 56th Ave.

A dog walker will pleadguilty after six dogsdied in her care.by Jessica KerrGlacier Media
The woman facing ani-mal cruelty charges inthe deaths of six Ladnerdogs earlier this year isexpected to plead guiltynext month.
Dog walker EmmaPaulsen is facing severalcharges under both theCriminal Code and thePrevention of Cruelty toAnimals Act, includingkilling or injuring an ani-mal, causing unnecessarypain or suffering of ananimal, failing to provideadequate care to dogs, andmischief.
Paulsen’s lawyerappeared in SurreyProvincial Court on herbehalf Wednesday after-noon. Asking for the mat-ter to be set aside untilNov. 12, he told the judgeshe planned to enter aguilty plea at that time.
Paulsen initially reportedthe canines stolen fromher truck while it wasparked at a Langley parkin May. It later came outthat the canines – Buddy,a Boston terrier; Mia, a pitbull; Oscar, a Rottweiler-husky mix; Molly, a blueheeler-shepherd cross;Teemo, a Bouvier poodlecross; and Salty, the dogwalker’s own border collie– died after allegedly beingleft in the back of hertruck on a hot day.
The dogs were laterrecovered from anAbbotsford ditch.
The maximum penalty inthe case is a $75,000 fine,up to five years in jail, anda ban on owning or havingcustody of animals for aperiod of time determinedby the judge.
Jennifer Myers, whosedog Buddy was one of thesix that died, was on handfor Wednesday’s courtappearance.
“We feel better,” shesaid. “I don’t think youcan ever feel good.”
Myers added that shefeels the guilty plea is“very appropriate.”– Jessica Kerr is a Delta Optimist reporter

With Remembrance Day just around thecorner, we can expect the 100th anniversary ofWorld War One any day now.
Ahh! I know what you’re thinking.You’re shaking your head right now and
thinking I ought to get my facts straight.You’re thinking I started writing without
thinking, and that my dates are off by a fullfour years… and how could the proof readershave let such an error get by them?
You’re thinking, “What agoof!”
Well, you’d be right… andyou’d be wrong.
You see, if I’m a goof for sug-gesting that the 100th anniver-sary of the end of the war isnear, then the whole world wasfilled with goofs in 1914.
It was common knowledge 100 years agothat the war was going to be over soon – the“boys” would be home by Christmas.
That’s one of the reasons the “boys” werelining up in droves to get in on the action.
They could hardly wait to pull on a slick,new uniform, shoulder one of the king’s ownrifles, and get on the boat to Europe – maybetake in some of the sights along the way whilethey’re over there, eh? – and let that nasty ol’Kaiser have what-for.
If they didn’t hurry to enlist, all the funand excitement would be finished before theycould get in on it. If they didn’t hurry, the warwould be over and done with. By Christmas.
So if I seem to be a bit of a goof for suggest-ing that we’re very near the 100th anniversaryof the end of World War One, so be it.
In fact, the First World War didn’t end onNov. 11, 1918, anyway. It’s just when thearmistice – a formal cease-fire agreement– was signed.
The war didn’t actually end until the Treatyof Versailles was signed on June 28, 1919.
In any case, my folly – if you see it that way– catches no one any serious harm.
The folly of the world’s leaders in 1914 costmillions of lives.
And those “boys” who set off to conquer theworld for King and Country when the clarionsounded… they really were just boys, remem-ber.
Most of the eager recruits who couldn’t waitto bag themselves some glory at the expenseof a few Huns were teenagers – many of them16 or 17, if they could get their parents to signoff their fates… some only 15 or even 14, ifthey were big for their age and canny enoughto put one over on a recruiting sergeant who,truth be told, was often enough eager to have
one put over on him.With the wisdom of hindsight,
we know what horror they werereally getting themselves into –the mud, the trenches, the end-less shelling, the gas, the blood,the lost limbs and lost lives.
But they weren’t stupid. Neverbelieve that.
They weren’t even foolish.The men who goaded those boys into it were
both.But not the boys themselves.They were just young.Our wisdom of hindsight has come from
the men who returned from the mud and theblood and the lost comrades.
There are no First World War veterans left,of course. They’ve all gone to join the friendsand relatives they left in the trenches so longago that… well, they’re all gone now.
But we remember them – those old menwith heads bowed, their uniforms adornedwith medals and campaign ribbons, standingsolemnly at the cenotaph on RemembranceDay (or quietly seated because they had growntoo old and tired to stand).
They were the old men who had becomewiser than they were when they rushed to joina war that would be over by Christmas.
We remember.

OpinionOur View
Plenty of respectin plastic poppy
’Tis the season for remembering veterans.As we approach Remembrance Day, the
uniformed old men – and more and morewomen – come into focus.
Phrases like “We Remember” and “LestWe Forget” are tossed about like mapleleaves on the first windy day of autumn.
We all go out and buy our obligatoryplastic poppies from the nearest Legionnaireand dutifully pin them to our lapels or col-lars or shirt pockets to signify the respectwe all have for those who fought for ourfreedoms in the great wars past.
Some of us will even go out tovisit Legion halls and cenotaphs onRemembrance Day, and stand respectfullystill as the Last Post sounds at 11 a.m. onNov. 11, braving the cold and wet (evenmore of us when the weatherman offerscool and dry) to emphasize our respect forour country’s veterans.
This time, try to remember more thanjust the usual stuff that we’re asked toremember on Remembrance Day.
Try to remember that, though there areno more veterans from the First World Warto add solemnity to the occasion, there arestill plenty left over from the Second WorldWar.
And the Korean War.And from Vietnam (yes, many Canadians
did fight in that “police action”).And from Bosnia.And from Afghanistan.And from all of the many peacekeep-
ing functions attended by Canadians inbetween.
Never fret, it seems that, as veterans ageand threaten to dwindle in numbers, theworld has a way of providing us with more.
And try to remember also that our veter-ans don’t just pop up this time of year likemushrooms after a big rain. They’re with usall year round – try to remember that.
While you’re remembering those things,remember that when you buy a poppy,you’re supporting an organization, theLegion, that does support our veterans allyear round.
That’s real respect.– B.G.

Dear Editor,Your correspondent [Schools fall behind
children, Oct. 30 Letters, Langley Advance]expressed outrage at the thought thatWilloughby students might have to bebused to rural schools.
The writer need not be overly worried,as there are not many rural schools leftto bus the kids to – they closed them soschool boards could better afford schools forthe town-based kids.
Countyline Elementary isthe perfect example of a solid,well-maintained little countryschool, closed, randomly rent-ed out, and now looking sad.
And where, you might ask,did those country kids go?
Can you imagine? They goton buses, and many rode off to city schools.
Go figure.Kathy Watson, Aldergrove

Dear Editor,On Remembrance Day we
recognize Canadian soldierswho served, and those whocontinue to serve. We alsopay our respects to thosethousands of Canadian menand women who paid theultimate price in service toour country.
This year our awarenessis raised higher, as we com-memorate important mile-stones in our nation’s mil-
itary history: the centennialof the First World War, the70th anniversary of D-Day,and the 75th anniversary ofthe Second World War.
With the First World War,we remember the over halfa million Canadians whofought for and defendeddemocracy and freedom.They forever changedCanada’s place in the worldand helped to forge ouridentity as a nation.
During the Second WorldWar the contribution ofCanadians was invaluable tothe Allied cause. Canadianservicemen and womenplayed an essential rolein extinguishing the evilof Nazism and liberatingthousands of people acrossEurope and the Pacific.
We also recognize ourveterans who have servedand fought in our otherconflicts since then, includ-ing Korea, Afghanistan, andother various peacekeepingand humanitarian missions.
As we reflect on therecent, tragic deaths ofWarrant Officer PatriceVincent and CorporalNathan Cirillo, we arereminded once more thatour men and women inuniform routinely put theirlives on the line in order toprotect us.
Our hearts go out to theirloved ones and friends atthis difficult time.
This November 11, letus take time to honour thefallen, commemorate thebrave, and thank our pastand present members of theCanadian Armed Forces fortheir service.
Lest we forget.Mark Warawa, MP for Langley
Remembrance Day
Veterans have earned recognition
Military service
Veterans paying for powerDear Editor,
I want to thank MP Mark Warawa and the Conservativegovernment for ensuring that my contributions to the PublicService Health Care Plan will be doubled over a four-yearperiod. As a veteran, I am more than happy to ensure thatthe Conservative government will be able to boast on theircampaign trail how they have achieved a budget surplus.
When I retired, I accepted that I must take a reduction inmy pension for having served my country for only 20 yearsinstead of the mandated 25 years. Fair is fair – but I wasassured at the time that my optional benefits would remainsacrosanct until I passed from this world.
Now the federal government, in its misguided avidity toretain power, has changed the goalposts for all veterans.
We are easy pickings, as we are only promoted to thegeneral public in November of each year; therefore we willprobably get little support from that same public in askingthem to defeat this government and any other until thislegislation is rescinded.
W.J. Farrall, NATO Service Medal, Langley
Dear Editor,I was surprised to see
Rick Green running formayor again. Perhaps hebelieves we do not remem-ber the controversy thatensued during his one term
as mayor from 2008-2011.Mr. Green lied to his
council and the Township.I do not believe his pat-
tern has changed. He recent-ly stated he is a Rotarian,however, I have not seen
him attend one meeting inthe past three years. I alsohave not seen him partici-pate in any of our celebrat-ed events, like the SpecialOlympics or Senior Games.
I also recall that Mr.Green did not attend theDouglas Day celebration ofNov. 19, 2011, the day fol-lowing his election loss, anevent that he was scheduledto emcee and honour ourpioneers, the people whobuilt this community.
My memory and pen willbe very sharp, come Nov.15, 2014.
Tim Lounsbury, Langley
Election
Sharp memory brought to the polls
Election
Change part of better futureDear Editor,
The time has come for Langley citizens to address thefuture of our Township.
Do we want more cars on the freeway? Do we want morelarge buildings or condos on the agricultural land? Do wewant to keep replacing our heritage buildings and forestswith buildings? Do we want expensive SkyTrains insteadof light rail? Do we want a pipeline going through our riv-ers and farmlands? Are developers more important thanordinary people? Should Official Community Plans andGuidelines for Communities be circumvented or ignored?
The future looks bleak unless the people of Langley getout and vote for change. Get to know the candidates for theupcoming election. It is up to the entire community.
Bays and Bob Blackhall, Langley

During a wet Monday, emergencyresponders in Langley were kept busyresponding to a number of crashes.
As a rainfall warning was issued byEnvironment Canada, there were a ser-ies of crashes from the TransCanadaHighway to the Golden Ears Bridge toGlover Road.
At mid-afternoon, a crash on GloverRoad required Langley Township fire-fighters to use rescue gear to extractthe trapped driver from a CN Rail
vehicle. The truck was a modifiedvehicle capable of running on eitherroad or rails.
It tipped nose-first into a ditch at theintersection of Glover Road and SmithCrescent.
Firefighters managed to open thedoor and extract the driver.
He appeared to be unharmed andwalked to a waiting ambulance, butfirefighters could not confirm his statusby press time.
The investigation of the crash wasbeing undertaken by WorkSafe BC, saidCpl. Holly Marks, spokesperson for theLangley RCMP.

One hundred years old
A Langley woman hit amilestone – turning 100 lastmonth.by Heather Colpittshcolpitts@langleyadvance.com
Muriel Webster was borna few months after thestart of the Great War,
Oct. 19, 1914 in Billings, a smallcommunity near Grand Forksthat no longer exists, at leastaccording to Google.
Webster’s life spans a timegoing from when Google wasthe name of a First World-Warera newspaper cartoon characterto the high tech era. Family andfriends gathered recently to markher 100th birthday.
She was the fourth child ofAlbert Clifford Jeffers and Eldora(McAloney) Jeffers.
Her older sister, Verna, tragic-ally drowned in a mill pond as atoddler.
The family moved to theChristina Lakearea when Murielwas four yearsold, and she start-ed her schoolingin a school about12 miles westof Grand Forks,inhabited mainlyby UniversalBrotherhood (a less radical sectthan the Sons of Freedom).
This school was her sisterRhoda’s first teaching assignmentand their mother did not wanther alone in the teacherage.
Webster graduated high schoola year earlier than typical andhad to wait to enter nurse train-ing at Royal Jubilee in Victoria.
And she was shorter thanthe required height. Not to bedeterred, she took it lying down,staying horizontal for a few daysso she could just make it.
It was while nursing inHazelton, in northern B.C., whereshe met Bill Webster.
He had been gassed in the warand was being tended for thatand other major wounds, whichwould impact him after the war.
They married in Vancouver in1941 where they would move
to in 1943. A doctor in PrinceRupert told them Muriel was toofar along in herpregnancy totake the steam-ship south soshe deliveredprematurelythere.
They builttheir homearound1948/49.
Murielworked as a‘special’ nurse.
“She nursedboth polio out-breaks in theearly to mid1950s, as wellas people critically injured byelectrical accidents and infantsborn with critical to life situa-tions,” explained her daughterAnn Fessenden.
They moved to Ottawa in 1956where Muriel took training to bea radiology technician. She wasin charge of the Ottawa Cancer
clinic for about adecade.
“In those daysthey not only hadto be able to usethe machines.They had to beable to repair andalmost build themfrom scratch,” her
daughter noted.After Bill’s death soon after
their 50th anniversary, the “B.C.gal” wanted to return west.
“I purchased her home inLangley for her in about 1990,”Fessenden said.
The move had a stipulation:she wanted to live close to aUnited Church, having beena longtime supporter of thedenomination. The hospitalwhere she worked in Hazeltonwas run by the church.
As well as supporting her ownchurch where she lived (SharonUnited in Langley), she support-ed UC churchs in River Hebert,N.S., where her family roots lay,and Aspey Bay, Cape Breton.
In addition to her family andwork, Muriel was active incommunity efforts, such as theVancouver Red Feather cam-
paign which raised funds for theCommunity Chest (charity).
In Langley, she became knownfor her green thumb.
“Mother had a beautiful gardenand several prolific fruit trees,”Fessenden said.
She donated this bounty tothe Langley Food Bank throughthe Langley Advance-createdCommunity Harvest Program.Fessenden thanks Advance staff forpicking and delivering the fruit.
Fessenden said that thanks to
caregiver, Marivic Paclibare, hermother is able to attend churchservices and enjoy her home.

Q: I have a metal front door, it iscurrently white and I would like topaint it. Where do I start?
A: The very first step is to start with a cleandoor. If the door is shiny, a light sanding is alsorecommended. This will improve the bond andadhesion of the paint, especially if the previouspaint was a gloss oil paint. Next you must primethe door using a primer specific for exterior metaldoors. (Do not use an interior latex primer). Applythe primer with a 10 mil or mohair smooth roller,to achieve an even application. Once the primerhas properly dried, you can topcoat with any Duluxexterior paint. We recommend the use of a satinor semigloss finish, depending on the conditionof the door, and the durability required. Applywith a 10 mil or mohair smooth roller to achievethe optimum finish. Our professionals can assistin picking that perfect front door colour, as wellas the materials needed for your DIY job to be asuccess.

Q: I often hear of businesses usinggovernment programs to grow. Howdo I know if my company qualifies?
A: When it comes to incentive programsbusiness owners often feel overwhelmed bythe perceived alphabet soup before them. IRAP,WINN, SDTC, BCIP & IDMTC are great programsbut once you’ve sorted out the acronyms it canbe tough learning which is the right fit.
Canada’s flagship tax incentive program isSR&ED (Scientific Research & ExperimentalDevelopment). SR&ED is designed to encourageCanadian businesses to develop new orimproved technologically advanced productsand processes. Many associate SR&ED with labsand white coats but that’s incorrect. A projectwhere new knowledge is generated by resolvingtechnological challenges can come inmany formsand result in cash refunds from government.
Deloitte has a long history of supportingcompanies of all sizes inmany industries includingagriculture, manufacturing and technology. Ifyou’re interested in learning more about which isthe right program for you, call or email anytime.

The TWU women areheading to the nationalchampionships in QuebecCity with another CanadaWest banner to their credit.
Trinity Western University ishome to a women’s soccer jug-gernaut.
The Spartans earned their sixthCanada West title on their hometurf on Saturday, edging theUniversity of the Fraser Valley2-1 in the gold medal game atTWU’s Rogers Field.
TWU used another game win-ning goal from Canada WestMVP Jessica King to earn thewin, which sends the Spartansas the No. 1 Canada Westseed to the CIS women’s soc-cer championship at LavalUniversity.
The Cascades will go as theNo. 2 seed out of Canada West.
The championship is theSpartans’ sixth since joiningCanada West in 2001, and theirsecond in three years.
King, a native of Liverpool,England, made it 2-0 for TWU inthe 61st minute.
The fifth year forward tooka pass up the middle frommidfielder Alessandra Oliverioand carried the ball betweentwo defenders to the top of theCascades’ penalty area.
From there, King launcheda perfectly placed ball over
UFV’s Kayla Kim and into thetop of the left corner of theCascades’ net.
If not for the fine play ofUFV’s Kim, the score couldhave been quite different.
The Cascades keeperstopped nine of the 12 TWUshots on goal, a number fromthe middle of the penaltyarea or closer, to keep theCascades in the game.
The Spartans looked to havethe opening goal in the 11thminutes when Natalie Arnettbeat Kim, but the Cascades’Tristan Corneil was able toclear the ball off of the line tokeep the match scoreless.
TWU’s Jennifer Castilloeventually tallied the openinggoal in the 24th minute. Thefifth year defender converteda rebound off a Spartanscorner kick by forward KristaGommeringer to give TWU a 1-0lead.
