They’ve become a big part ofthe Delta school district’s iden-tity.
Aimed at not only retain-ing students but also attractingout-of-district kids, the numberof academies, and studentsenrolled in them, has stead-ily grown in recentyears, providing agreater variety ofacademic choicesas well as an impor-tant source of rev-enue.
This year, 499students are in adozen academies,a number thatincludes 60 fromout of district.There are also 19international stu-dents enrolled inacademies.
The variety ofsports and fine arts offeringsinclude soccer at South DeltaSecondary in Tsawwassen anddance at Delta Secondary inLadner, to name just a couple.
The first academy was starteda decade ago when the schooldistrict partnered with theVancouver Giants to offer aspir-ing hockey players an opportu-nity to hone their skills. Basedat SDSS, that academy has nowbranched out to include com-
petitive teams that play as theDelta Wild.
The number of out-of-districtstudent athletes the hockeyacademy is attracting was evi-dent during this May’s WesternHockey League Bantam Draft,which saw nine players selected,highlighted by Alberta native TySmith being taken No. 1 overallby the Spokane Chiefs.
The fees vary according to theacademy. A pricey propositionis being part of one of the DeltaWild teams, which can costroughly $12,000 over a 10-monthseason.
An academy with one of thebiggest enrollments is the soccerprogram at SDSS, which has 58students, including two from outof district as well as four fromGermany and one from Spain.

Paige Hansen, the dis-trict’s vice-principal ofacademies, said a lot ofamazing things are hap-pening at Delta’s acad-emies.
Hansen told the schoolboard last week that plansare in the works to createan opera and performanceacademy for the 2016/17school year, a plan thatmust still get approvalfrom trustees.
“When we think of kids,we don’t normally think ofopera, but I can assure you
there is a huge appetite inDelta for theatre, music,musical theatre. Really,opera is North America’s,let’s say, cousin of musicaltheatre,” she said.
“A kid at this age doesn’tnecessarily have to singopera, but they can gothrough the creative pro-cess of engaging in musicand theatre. So it’s a reallyneat opportunity we’redeveloping for them.”
Also in the works areplans to expand the soft-ball academy to DSS anddevelop a sustainable
agriculture academy,which would be basedout of SDSS and woulduse classroom space atthe old Boundary BeachElementary site.
Assistant superinten-dent Doug Sheppardrecently told the Deltacouncil/Delta schoolboard liaison committeethe district is hoping toprovide the municipal-ity with a business plansoon and start discussionsaround what may be avail-able in terms of land.
The district is hoping to
pilot something next falleither at the Southlandsor perhaps on plots at theTsawwassen First Nation.
The Delta school boardhas heavily involved itselfwith academies to makeup for a steady enrollmentdecline, which has hadnegative consequencesfor the district’s operatingbudget. Enrollment, how-ever, is starting to level off,which means additionalrevenues coming fromacademies can be directedto other areas insteadof simply helping offset
losses.Not all the academies
have been as successful,though. The board part-nered with the VancouverWhitecaps a few years agoto create a soccer academyat North Delta Secondary,but that relationship fiz-zled and the program wascancelled.
Bursaries and financialassistance are available forthose wanting to enroll inan academy. The schooldistrict created a websiteto promote its academiesat deltaacademies.ca.

A local man’s effortsto create a breathalyzerto test for marijuana aregetting closer to havingthe device in the hands ofpolice.
Ladner’s Kal Malhi, aretired RCMP officer, hasbeen working on develop-ing a roadside breathalyzersince last year. In August,his company, CannabixTechnologies, signed anagreement with the YostResearch Group at theUniversity of Florida.
The partners havedeveloped a prototype andbegun testing. Malhi saidright now they’re gettingaccurate readings about80 per cent of the timeand the team is working torefine the system to reach100 per cent accuracy.
“Our partnership withthe Yost Research Groupand the University of
Florida immedi-ately diversifiesCannabix’s port-folio of breathtesting technolo-gies for THC,” hesaid after thepartnership wasannounced.
“Our new part-nership boosts ourability to deliver adurable, portablehand-held tool tothe market to helpdetect marijuanaimpaired drivingoffences on ourroads at a timewhen marijuana isbecoming legal inmany jurisdictionsglobally.”
Malhi said he cameup with the idea for theCannabix breathalyzer inlate 2013 while on a familytrip to India.
While waiting at theairport, he came across astudy out of Sweden about
breath testing technologydeveloped at KarolinskaUniversity in Solna. TheSwedish study showedthat breath samples couldbe collected and sent to alab for testing. Malhi tookhis idea and teamed upwith two doctors to try andmake it a reality.
Currently, marijuanause can only be detectedby testing blood, urineor saliva samples. Policehave no way to determineon the road that a driveris under the influence ofthe drug. Any evidence forcharges or a conviction incourt is largely based on
an officer’s observations.“Police officers have
a tough time [provingsomeone was drivinghigh],” Malhi said. “Ourtool would provide thatscientific evidence to go tocourt.”
The Cannabix breatha-lyzer is designed to collecta breath sample, whichis then fed into a anotherpart of the device that teststhe sample and gives animmediate result, similarto breathalyzers offic-ers use to test for alcoholimpairment during road-side checks.
With an increasingnumber of U.S. stateslegalizing marijuanasales, and the new Liberalgovernment’s campaignpromise to do the samehere, Malhi said the tech-nology is more urgentlyneeded to enforce roadsafety and crack down ondrivers impaired by thedrug.

Expect a harder timethan usual finding a park-ing spot in Ladner Villagenext year.
A major utility,streetscape upgrade andbeautification project isscheduled to commencein January on Delta Street.Costing over $6 million,the work will stretch from48th Avenue to ChisholmStreet and include newsidewalks, street lighting,new pavement as well asa watermain replacement.Work is expected to con-tinue into the fall.
The end result will alsosee a decorative pedestri-an plaza at the intersectionof Delta and Bridge streets,decorative stamped/col-oured pedestrian cross-walks at intersections aswell as new bicycle racks,benches, decorative bol-lards, banner poles and
garbage receptacles.“We’ve been in touch
with the business commu-nity and what we’re goingto do is have it done block-by-block,” said munici-pal engineering directorStephen Lan said. “Thatway it will minimize theimpacts of construction formerchants and people canuse the sidewalks againand also park their vehi-cles. The inconveniencewill be a shorter durationfor each block.”
Trees will be replacedas roots are pushing upseveral street panels, asource of concern for themunicipality as peoplehave tripped on them.Drainage problems havealso resulted from unevensidewalks.
Lan said new trees willbe planted with root bar-rier systems.
“We’re kind of con-strained by the root ball,but we are going to try to
find as good a size replace-ment as we can,” he said.
Delta’s engineeringdepartment is inviting thepublic to comment onthe Delta Street RoadwayRevitalization Project andhas a feedback form thatcan be filled out until Dec.15.
The project, along withother upcoming Deltainfrastructure work, will befeatured at a public openhouse from 4 to 8:30 p.m.on Thursday, Dec. 3 at theHarris Barn.
The project is part ofthe much bigger DeltaNeighbourhood RoadImprovements Plan, whichwas introduced in 2012 toaddress aging roads andsidewalks.
Also part of that largerinitiative, and scheduledfor next year, is the firstphase of work on ArthurDrive, from 44th Avenueto Augustine House,which will see streetscape
improvements that includea new sidewalk, betterbike lanes, new pavementand street lights. The nextphase, from AugustineHouse to Deltaport Way,will include pullouts at busstops.
The 4800-block of 48thAvenue will get a new side-walk and other improve-ments in 2017.
Projects already com-pleted include the inter-section of Ladner TrunkRoad and Arthur Driveand the area near 48thAvenue and Garry Street.
Lan said Delta wouldlook at other street androad upgrade oppor-tunities in Ladner andTsawwassen as part ofthe South Delta BusinessSustainability Strategy, amajor initiative aimed athelping Delta’s businesscommunity adapt to lifeonce the Tsawwassen FirstNation mega malls opennext year.

Terry
Terry came to us as a trapped feral that has since turned quite friendly. Terry livedoutdoors and was being fed by his finder who was then able to trap him when Terrybit his own tongue and needed medical assistance. He was going to be returned tothe finder’s home after he got all fixed up but he decided that perhaps he’d rather bea friendly inside cat instead! Terry doesn’t seem to mind other cats in the shelter andcan be seen hanging out with other cats in our communal room. We feel Terry woulddo best in a home with no dog but may do well with older children who understandcat body language. Terry likely will be fine as an indoor cat in his new home as longas there’s a bright window for him to stare out and watch the world go by. Can Terryget comfortable in your home?

Ladner is a communitydesigned around automo-bile dependency, but thatcan be changed.
That’s the vision ofuniversity students AlexGaio and Aaron Meier,both Delta Secondarygrads, who came up withthe Ladner CrosstownGreenway Bike RouteConcept. It’s a series ofpotential bike/walk pathsconnecting East Ladnerwith the restof the com-munity.
The paircame up withthe proposalin responseto the FraserHealth,Coastal Healthand UBCMyHealth MyCommunitysurvey thatsuggested astrong correla-tion between health andactive transportation, butfound Delta is a commu-nity that sees lower thanaverage walking, cyclingand transit use, while hav-ing above average car use.
Gaio and Meir say thereis a great opportunity topromote healthier life-styles by providing saferwalking and cycling con-nectivity.
Their concept can beseen on a website theyset up at alex.gaio.me/ctg/ that also includes anonline survey and peti-tion. They were confused
by the lack of transporta-tion choices for studentsand wanted to explorethe option of improvingmobility, so decided togather feedback from resi-dents.
Saying they haven’tmade a presentation tothe Corporation of Delta,Gaio told the Optimistthey’re hoping to eventu-ally get the engineeringdepartment to explore thefeasibility of the potentialroute alignments onceinput from locals has been
gathered.“We put those ideas
out there as a catalyst tostart a conversation,” heexplained.
Gaio said they’d liketo eventually see a planin place that would cre-ate a bike and walk pathconnecting Ladner to anewmulti-use path thatwill be constructed inTsawwassen, a partnershipannounced this summerbetween the TsawwassenFirst Nation and provincialgovernment, as well as theGeorge Massey Tunnelreplacement bridge,
although those discussionswould be further down theroad.
“My primary goal fornow is to help increasetransportation choicein Delta and hopefullyimproving public health asa result,” he added.
Gaio and Meir pitchedtheir idea at a meeting ofthe HUB Cycling SouthDelta Committee, getting,as expected, a positiveresponse.
The committee’s PatrickThompson said the time
couldn’t bebetter to startplanningfor safe bikeroutes thatwould createconnectivitywith most ofSouth Deltato the newbridge. Rightnow, SouthDelta hasa few goodpockets ofroutes but
those dots need to be con-nected, he said.
“It’s one of our prioritiesat Delta HUB and we’rein touch with the MasseyTunnel folks because wesee that as a gate open-ing, essentially, with thebridge. Right now the tun-nel is a major obstacle,” hesaid.
As far as River Road, hesaid it has been improvedand diverting trucks to theSouth Fraser PerimeterRoad has helped, makingit safer for people to cycleto Tilbury, but more isneeded.

I’d like to offer belated congratula-tions to Carla Qualtrough, whowas one of just three B.C. MPsnamed to PrimeMinister JustinTrudeau’s cabinet last week.
As a former medal-winningParalympic swimmer and human rightslawyer, our new Liberal MP is well qual-ified to handle the role of minister ofsport and persons with disabilities, so itwas heartening to see the prime minis-ter bestow that responsibility on her.
It’s hard to believe that at this timelast year Qualtrough was campaigningfor a seat on the Delta school boardand now she’s a member of the federalcabinet, but if there’s anything to betaken from those turn of events it’s thefact that a lot of good people get lostin the sea of candidates in a municipalelection.
As much as it’s a feather in the cap tobe selected to cabinet as a rookie MP, Iwas pleased to hear to Qualtrough saythat serving Delta will always be hermain job. I was even more impressedwhen she backed up those words withactions right away.
Hours after being sworn in as a cabi-net minister, Qualtrough was hit withnews that the installation of communitymailboxes in Ladner would proceeddespite her party’s desire for a mora-torium and Canada Post’s announce-ment it was putting the brakes on theprogram.
Because the Canada Post announce-ment only applied to installations forNovember and beyond, and becauseLadner’s conversion was scheduledto take place in mid-October, she wastold, as we were, that it would be goingahead, even though it was alreadyNovember and no boxes had beeninstalled yet.
Qualtrough didn’t buy the bizarrelogic and was already escalating herresponse to the issue when word camedown that Ladner would indeed beincluded in the moratorium and retainits home delivery, at least for the timebeing.
I spoke with her from Ottawa as shewas busy returning calls late one nightand during that conversation I jokedwith her that it could go south in ahurry if an MP didn’t look after thingson the home front. The rest of Canadamay want a piece of you, but it’s thepeople of Delta that ultimately deter-mine whether you remain in office. Sheassured me she’s acutely aware of thatsituation.
Eyesontheprize
We’ve all experi-enced the elec-tion process,some first handas candidates,
others in supporting roles asoffice staff, sign makers, strate-gists, et al. Like most community-minded folks on election day, wedutifully attend a polling stationand cast a ballot for our favouritecandidate(s).
This latter process is a brief butnecessary ritual. I’m one of thosewho believe voters should attenda public facility to register theirchoice of candidate under pub-lic watch. Mobile polls addresssenior and disability issues, thusfacilitating voting opportunity.
During last month’s federalelection, Maureen and I offeredour services as scrutineers. Ifound the experience fascinatingand time well spent. Voter turn-out has steadily dropped since theSecondWorld War for all levels ofgovernment.
Curious about the day ahead,I drove around to various poll-ing stations at 7 a.m. and notedheavy car and pedestrian traffic.It appeared voter interest was upas supported by the advancedpolls. Was change in the air or theincrease a product of a close elec-tion and well organized campaignactivity?
I attended HawthorneElementary and relieved the
morning shift, spending the restof the day observing/scrutineer-ing voter activity and the meticu-lous hand count of ballots anddocumentation of results.
Scrutineers are volunteersrepresenting party and candidateinterest that help validate theintegrity of the voting process.One could expect there mightbe awkwardness between partyrepresentatives. Not so. I foundall scrutineers responsible andconscientious in their duties yetaffable and approachable.
Together we could observe theebb and flow of voter activity. Theodd hold up or registration errorwas handled promptly and cour-teously by paid supervisory staff.Voting activity remained heavyand constant. There was a pre-vailing sense of purpose in thosepeople waiting patiently to casttheir ballot. The reason would
soon become self-evident.I didn’t get a sense there was
a dramatic increase in the youngvoter turnout but statistical analy-sis might prove otherwise.
Inside the polling station theparty representatives were opti-mistic about their candidates’success, perhaps less so about thenational scene. The Eastern timezone was a bit of a distractionas we neared our 7 p.m. closinghour. The last couple cast theirballots to a standing ovation asthey exited the premises.
The ballot boxes were openedunder scrutiny and the count gotunderway. There were 10 boxes tobe counted of some 4,000 ballots.Within minutes the local trendwas clear.
Unbeknownst to many insidethe polling station, CBC wasdeclaring a Liberal governmentbefore B.C. polls closed. Beforeour count was posted, concessionspeeches locally and nationallyhad occurred.
Provincial closing times requirebetter co-ordination to ensurepotential voters are not influ-enced by other jurisdictions.
A good day to observe partici-patory democracy at work andwitness a civil exchange in federalgovernance.
And a good night to you, Jim.A fourth generation Ladnerite,

Editor:Re: Community loses achampion, Nov. 6
How sad to read aboutAnn Claggett’s passing.
Our experience withAnn’s leadership wasthrough her dutiesas founding chair ofElderCollege Delta begin-ning 12 years ago.
Through Ann’s doggeddetermination, we wereable to have local venuesoffered at no charge andall our presenters, mostlyretired educators, werecoaxed to offer their ser-vices at no charge in order
for seniors to enjoy learn-ing without having to takeexaminations or travel out-side of their own commu-nity. She was adamant thatwe could provide a solidprogram with donatedtime and space.
ElderCollege Delta isthe only third age learningorganization not attachedto a post-secondaryinstitution in the LowerMainland; consequentlyvolunteers do the mailouts, registration, recruit-ing of presenters and othercomponents without theassistance common to
other senior educationalorganizations. All instruc-tors and presenters givefreely of their time.
The selection of pro-gramming has widenedsince the years of Ann’sinvolvement and we havebeen able to take advan-tage of venues donated ina variety of locations local-ly, providing easy accessby public transit, foot orby car.
Our celebrated choirwas one of Ann’s innova-tions as a publicity armand the ElderCollegeSingers continue to pro-
vide much pleasure toseniors.
All this was put intoaction with a team of vol-unteers under Ann’s boldleadership.
Many years laterElderCollege Delta is alearning community witha current membership of350 students over the ageof 50.
We see ElderCollegeDelta as a legacy createdby Ann Claggett that con-tinues to grow in size andexcellence.

Editor:The latest public rela-
tions TV ad by Port MetroVancouver about shorepower and our quality oflife doesn’t tell the wholestory.
The port’s new ad fea-turing the cruise shipfacility at Canada Place isvery misleading. It is truethey have installed shorepower at Canada Place butfail to mention that onlyabout 30 per cent of visit-ing cruise ships have shorepower capability. Those
ships that do are oftenbrought in on the wrongside of the dock, whichdefeats the electrical hookup for shore power.
The rest of the cruiseship industry uses differ-ent technology to addressair and noise pollutionand has no plans to installshore power infrastructurenow or in the future.
The story gets evenworse when we discoverthat neither the port norTransport Canada have setdown regulations, time-
lines and/or deadlines forshore power complianceat Canada Place.
In Delta, the Deltaportcontainer terminal recent-ly announced a shorepower project for one ofits three berths. This airand noise pollution pre-vention expenditure wasannounced about three orfour months ago. Again wesee no regulations, time-line or deadlines for com-pliance at Deltaport.
It is clear that PortMetro Vancouver has
spent a large sum atCanada Place andDeltaport for shore powercapability without anycompliance deadlines. Itcontinues to appear theport is happy to subjectthe citizens of Delta andGreater Vancouver to amajor source of air andnoise pollution now andwell into the future.
Does anyone trulybelieve that Port MetroVancouver is improvingour quality of life?

Editor:Re: Lack of information
on bridge concerns MLA,Nov. 4
The transportation min-ister’s comments aboutgovernment transparencyon the George MasseyTunnel replacement aresimply an attempt todeflect the main issue.
My office requested
the business case, brief-ing notes and technicaldata that supported thereplacement options cho-sen for public consulta-tion. We were told therewere no records. Linkingus to public websites and15 pages of dated trafficdata was not an answer toour question.Optimist columnist
Ian Robertson requested“documents, data, analysisprepared for the premierto allow her to determineand to announce that theMassey Tunnel would bereplaced by a bridge overthe Fraser River.” He wastold there were no records.
Government has eitherfailed to disclose, or —perhaps worse — to keep,
internal records support-ing the decision to build abridge. In my opinion, theissue is simple: the publichas a right to transparentdecisions that are sup-ported by good data andsound financial analysis.We have a right to a papertrail.Vicki Huntington, MLA

The Blue Door Interiorsfor its wonderful win-dow display in honour ofRemembrance Day and its
decision not to Christmasdecorate until after Nov.11.
Maybe more shops willdo the same next year.What is more important:
honouring those whofought for our freedomor starting our Christmasshopping?
Also, Nov. 28 is “ShopYour Neighbourhood” and
I hope that all residentsof Ladner will take partand support the wonder-ful shops right in our ownback yard.

Editor:Such needless embar-
rassment!MLA Vicki Huntington
and Delta resident IanRobertson each madefreedom of informationrequests of the Ministryof Transportation andInfrastructure for infor-mation they believedshould exist supportingthe announced location
of the George MasseyTunnel replacementbridge. Consultationsleading to that decisionare reported on the min-istry website, but moreinformation is yet to beprepared.
The ministry apparentlyresponded that the infor-mation requested doesnot exist, neglecting toadd that information not
subject to an FOI is on itswebsite. The result was anuproar in the legislatureyielding unfortunate col-umns and letters in boththe Vancouver Sun and theDelta Optimist.
This should have beenavoided by the minis-try posting a summaryproject schedule on itswebsite. Those interestedcould have learned what
work has been completedand posted, and whenremaining tasks will becompleted and the resultseither posted or availableby FOI.
Surely there must besuch a schedule. The 2017start of construction hasfor months been adver-tised alongside Highway17.

Members of RotaryInternational have beenworking on the eradicationof polio for over 30 years.
Rotary Club ofTsawwassen membersembraced World PolioDay last month with guestspeakers Chris and PennyOffer. The Offers sharedtheir experience of partici-pating in a recent NationalImmunization Day inIndia, where over 170 mil-lion children needed to bevaccinated in just one day.
In 1988, there were350,000 cases of polio inover 125 countries around
the world; in 2015,there were 37 casesin only two coun-tries.
The last timethe world saw theelimination of adisease like poliowas the eradicationof small pox duringa worldwide cam-paign from 1966 to1980.
Every child in theworld needs to bevaccinated to effec-tively kill the virusso it never appearsagain. Rotary and theWorld Health Organizationare so close to achievingthis goal that the Bill andMelinda Gates Foundationis offering to match everydollar raised by Rotarianswith two extra dollars andthe Canadian governmentis also matching two-to-one.
Tsawwassen Rotariansrecently donated over$8,700 to the cause,which turns into $43,500with matching dona-tions, according to JohnCharbonneau, founda-tion director of the RotaryClub of Tsawwassen. That
means over 51,000 chil-dren will receive the vac-cine.
“Our club is so wellknown for our local workin the community, butthat is only a part of thestory,” said club presidentShane Todhunter. “Rotarymakes an impact world-wide coming together totackle ambitious goals likethe eradication of polio. Iwas astounded by the sup-port our members showedrecently for this truly nota-ble cause.”

Tsawwassen Rotarians John Charbonneau, AlexandMatt Wood, Leslie Abramson, Garry Shearer,Rick and Sonja Sullivan, and Tyler Coe gleaned 1,100pounds of potatoes in less than 60minutes on arecent Saturdaymorning. They will deliver about250 pounds to the South Delta Food Bank each weekfor four weeks. The potatoes have been generouslydonated by Peter Guichon. Clubmembers are hopingto have another gleaning in late November.

Thanks to the outstand-ing artistic talent of thelate Margaret Elliot, thethoughtfulness of herfamily, the generosity offriends and the goodwillof the SouthDelta ArtistsGuild, morethan $7,000 wasdonated to theDelta HospiceSociety at hercelebration oflife.
Held Oct. 25at the guild’s Gallery 1710in Tsawwassen, the eventdrewmore than 150 peo-ple to remember Elliot andthen be astounded by theabundance and variety ofher award-winning work,which completely filledthe guild’s studio/work-shop.
More than 40 largeframed watercolours —landscapes, sailing shipsand portraits among them— filled the wall hang-ing space. Easels held anassortment of canvasesand scores of drawingsand sketches done duringthe guild’s life-drawingsessions, which Elliot
loved attending, coveredmany tables.
All were available for adonation to Delta Hospice,and as a result many peo-ple now have both a visibleand cherished memory ofa much-admired artist andthe knowledge they have
also helped thoseneeding specialcare, which was theaim of Elliot’s fam-ily in arranging theevent.
Her daughtersand sister areimmensely grate-ful for all the help
received in making thecelebration a resoundingsuccess. While there wassadness as friends sharedtheir loss, there was alsolaughter at happy memo-ries and the pleasure ofseeing her two younggranddaughters, taught artby their grandmother andfor whom her forthcomingbook Native in Eskdale:Another Countrywas writ-ten, viewing her paintingswith other children learn-ing about art.
Ellliot’s award-winningpainting Melrose Abbey,a gift from her family,now hangs in the lobby ofGallery 1710.

About 130 peoplewere spellbound byPeter Johnson’s descrip-tions of the poor condi-tions women faced onbride-ships during anElderCollege Delta pres-entation last Saturday inLadner.
The author of Voyagesof Hope: The Saga of theBride-Ships, Johnson toldthe crowd at Cedar ParkChurch about the plightof young women beingsent from the U.K. underthe auspices of religiousorganizations.
He detailed the fright-ening circumstances ofyoung females landing byship after three monthson the high seas with nowashing facilities, thenbeing herded throughtroughs of showering stallssurrounded by men gawk-ing at them in their naked-ness.
The second portionof Johnson’s programwas lighter content withElderCollege members
and guests playing rolesof the prospective bridesand miners who did or didnot join forces to establishB.C.’s population.
There was much laugh-ter and astonishment asseveral persons, follow-ing a script provided byJohnson, told of theirexperiences upon landing.
A last-minute addi-tion to the program wasthe inclusion of IvanSayer, past curator or theVancouver Museum, whoshared some of his privatecollection items pertainingto the bride-ships. Sayerhas the largest collectionof period costumes from1700 in Canada.

One of the things Ienjoy most about livingin our city is that peopleknow each other by name.I recently walked into alocal business and wasgreeted with a cheerful:“Hi Paul!” That may seemlike a small thing, but itmeant a lot.
Each of has a God-givendesire to be known andloved. We are meant tolive in community. We aremeant to be in relation-ship. Unfortunately, as welive in an increasingly frag-mented society, more andmore people find them-selves isolated and alone.
Jesus is a person thatloves you and knows you.In fact He knows every-thing about you, and that’s
a good thing. He is theGood Shepherd who lovesand protects His sheep.In John 10:27 He said,Mysheep hear my voice, andI know them, and they fol-low me.
Jesus is the lovingShepherd that offers eter-nal life just for the asking.By repenting of sin andbelieving that He died forour sins, we can be in areal and vital relationshipwith Him forever.
It was wonderful to begreeted by name at a localbusiness. It’s even betterto be known by the Son ofGod.

Her contribution toemerge 15 is an excerptfrom a three-generationfamily saga spanningthree continents, a projectwhose grandeur has beendescribed as “overwhelm-ing.”
But, as White says, “you
never really know whatsomething is about untilyou do it!”
Marshall is currently
working on a creative non-fiction book, a series oflinked short stories and anovel.
“I grew up in Ladner,when it was on the vergeof suburbia, in an areawe called Chung ChuckHeights,” says Marshall.“The Heights will alwaysbe with me, in my emo-tions, thoughts and deci-sions. It is always at mycore.”
emerge 15 is guest-edited by author andpoet Matt Rader, whodescribes the content as“the re-inhabited lives ofour neighbours — funny,wicked, queer, unpredict-able, vatic, curious, trou-bled, warm.” Rader invitesreaders into the anthology:“They have thrown openthe doors for you to haveyour own look around.”

Any weightloss program,as well as allexercise pro-grams, rely on
a protein-rich diet. Whyyou wonder?
Well, I think I need tostart at the beginning andexplain the basics aboutprotein and then buildfrom there.
Protein is found in everycell, muscle, tissue andorgan in our body. Thebody needs protein forgrowth (as in muscles),maintenance and repair ofour cells, metabolism (asin an increased one) anddigestion.
Protein also helps to
transport nutrients andoxygen within the blood,it fights against infectionand, on a more aestheticlevel, it is the main nutri-ent that keeps our hairshiny and healthy, ournails strong, our skin look-ing fresh and glowing,and our bones strong andhealthy. (www.cdc.gov/nutrtition.com)
Protein is actuallychains of other moleculescalled amino acids.
There are 22 aminoacids in total in thebody. Thirteen of themnon-essential, meaningour bodies are capable ofmaking these little guyson their own, and ninethat are deemed essentialbecause we need to ingestthese aminos through thefoods we eat.
When we eat the rightfoods, these nine aminoacids will get reassembledto form the different typesof protein that our bodyneeds. (www.about.com/what-is-protein).
What foods containthese nine essential aminoacids? Meat, fish, poultry,eggs, milk, cheese, yogurt
and soybeans provide allnine amino acids and aretherefore called “completeproteins.”
Plant sources, such aslegumes, nuts, seeds, grainproducts and many veg-etables, have some, butnot all, of the nine aminoacids, and are so termed“incom-pleteproteins.”Whencom-bined,though, itis possi-ble to getall ninewithouthaving toeat anyanimalproducts (great news forall you vegetarians outthere).
A diet high in protein isa very successful weightloss technique, and atried and true method forfitness-enthusiasts lookingto maintain a lean bodyweight and a high musclemass.
In a study publishedin Nutrition Metabolism,
dieters that increasedtheir protein intake to30 per cent of their dailydiet ate nearly 450 fewercalories a day and lostabout 11 pounds over the12-week study — and thatwas without employingany other dietary meas-ures. (www.msnbc.msn.
com)Worried
aboutwhat allthat extraprotein inyour bodymight doto yourheart andvessels,though?
Noneed to. In
another study, this time atJohn Hopkins University,they found that a diet inwhich roughly a quar-ter of the calories camefrom lean protein sourcesactually reduced bloodpressure, LDL (bad) cho-lesterol and triglyceridesbetter than a traditionalhigher-carb diet. (www.active.com)
However, if you have
any kidney or liver prob-lems it’s best to seek theadvice of a nutritionistbefore increasing yourdaily protein intake.
I, personally, add a pro-tein source to every mealI eat. Some plant-based,some not (a girl needs acheeseburger every sooften). Don’t be afraid todo the same to each of
your meals, too, and startreaping the many benefitsthat protein can have onyour body.PJ Wren is a local trainer
and writer who has beenknown to order a veggieburger with bacon justto see the reaction of thewaiter (none, btw). Shecan be reached at www.fitnesswithpj.com.Well on
Your WayP.J.WREN How much protein should you
be taking depends on your bodyweight, activity level and genderFor women:
If you’re not very active: Multiply your body weight (inkg) by 0.8
If you’re active or pregnant: Multiply your body weight(in kg) by 1.3
If you’re extremely active & in training: Multiply yourbody weight (in kg) by 1.8
For men:
If you’re not very active: Multiply your body weight (inkg) by 1.0
If you’re active: Multiply your body weight (in kg) by1.5
If you’re extremely active & in training: Multiply yourbody weight (in kg) by 2.0
Tip: To determine your body weight in kg divide yourweight in pounds by 2.2

W I N T E R C A R C A R EW I N T E RW I N T E R C A R EC A RBrakesThe brakes must be faultless and equalized so there is no pulling to one side,which may cause skidding.
Cooling SystemIf it hasn’t been done in a while, hove your cooling system flushed out with agood chemical cleaner and put in fresh anti-freeze. Check containers, belts,hoses, the pressure caps and thermostat.
Battery and Electrical SystemCold weather is hard on batteries. If your battery is several years old, have itchecked. Be sure connections are clean and light.
EngineA diagnostic check-up of the engine can be a good pre-winter investment. Ifyou’re for a tune-up, have it done before winter sets in. Faulty wiring, wornspark plugs, a sticking choke or emission control devices that need attention,can all lead to hard starting.
Exhaust SystemCheck the muffler and tail pipe system for carbon monoxide leaks, which canbe especially dangerous cold weather driving when the windows are closed.
Fuel SystemMake sure there is plenty of gas in your tank at all times. A full tank minimizescondensation, which may cause gas line freezing. Add gasoline antifreezeoccasionally.
Heaters, Defrosters and Wipershave them checked to make sure they are operational. Install winter wiperblades and use cold weather washer fluid. Ensure your windshield can give youclear vision of the road and traffic around you.
Oil and FilterDirty oil can give you trouble in the winter, so change the oil and filter. Checkthe other filters, including the fuel, air and transmission filters.
TiresSnow tires increase traction in soft snow. Install them on all four wheels.All-season tires on all wheels with good treads are adequate in some regions.Check your tire pressure regularly-for every 5°C of temperature drop, tirepressure goes down by one pound.

Do the whitening products you buy at the drug store work?
There are a variety of products for whitening from toothpastesto whitening strips. The toothpastes are simply a marketingstrategy and they will not whiten your teeth. The effectivenessof a whitening product is dependent on the active ingredient inthe product, the strength of this active ingredient and the timeit is in contact with the teeth. The whitening strips and otherdrug store products have limitations as they are restricted as tothe active ingredient and the strength of this active ingredient.The most effective whitening products can only be dispensedby a dental professional. The drug store products are alsolimited as they are in the form of strips that are not closelyadapted to the teeth as opposed to the custom trays you getfrom the professional products. The professional products alsohave ingredients to decrease sensitivity which can be a sideeffect of the active ingredient in whitening products. For moreinformation about the different whitening products contactyour dental professional.

What does a free consultation involve in your office?QUESTION:
ANSWER:The first consultation appointment involves a medical and dentalquestionnaire. Like all medical and dental offices we requireinformation to form a picture of who we are consulting. Medicaland dental history allows us to properly assess your oral conditionsin order to propose a viable treatment plan best suited for yourspecific needs. The next step is a complete intra oral (inside yourmouth) and extra oral (head and neck) exam. At this point we arelooking for lumps and bumps that do not belong. If any anomaliesare found you are referred to the appropriate practitioner bestsuited to address your needs. In the intra oral exam the teethare checked for caries (cavities) and mobility. If you are havinga partial made we will refer you back to your dentist for anynecessary work or xrays that may need to be completed before wefabricate your partial. This is important, as you are making a largeinvestment into your teeth and the foundations must be assured.At the end of your consultation you are given a treatment plan(quote) for services. If you have insurance, we will preauthorizeyour prosthetic with your insurance company. Once we receiveyour preauthorization back from your insurance company we willcontact you with the amount your insurance is paying. You arenot obligated to go ahead, but you will know what your financialobligation will be in case you decide to have the work done. Ifyou have any questions regarding this or any other implant ordental related subject please do not hesitate to call or make anappointment for a free consultation.

QUESTION:Are there any new books on coins coming out soon?
ANSWER:Charlton Press publishes the best catalogues on Canadian coins and banknotes.The new 2016 catalogues have just arrived in stock.
Starting with the 2016 Standard Catalogue of Canadian Coins, this is the 70th edition ofwhat is the best catalogue for serious collectors of Canadian coins.It lists every coin issued for circulation from 1858 until 2015 with prices for up to10 different grades of each coin.All major and most minor varieties are included with prices.Newfoundland , Nova Scotia and P.E.I. coins are also included.Each year there is a special section at the back and this year it is on small penny varieties.The retail price of this book is $24.95
The 2016 Charlton Paper Money Catalogue has every note issued by the Canadiangovernment since 1858.As well it includes all Provincial and Municipal issues of currency.Did you know that Alberta issued a $1.00 bill in 1936 or that NorthVancouver issued $1, 5,& 10 bills in 1913.These as well as many other scarce notes are listed and priced in this catalogue.Regarding pricing ,I have noticed that most banknotes from 1937 and older increased byabout 10% and the 1954 notes increased by 5%.This catalogue sells for $34.95.
Final catalogue is CharltonVolume Two, Collector Issues.This catalogue lists every coin issued only for collectors by the Royal Canadian Mint.With 180 different coins issued in 2013, 250 different in 2014 and 350 different in 2015 thiscatalogue is a necessity just to keep up with the mint.My favorite use for the catalogue is to check the actual mintage of the coins .This catalogue sells for $34.95. All catalogues are PST exempt but we do need tocharge GST>

QUESTION:Are we better off Renovating or Re-Locating? That’s the Big Money question!
ANSWER:For obvious reasons your realtor will make a good case to simply re-locate (ah, but notso simple!) Conversely, a good Renovator can take that existing house and make it yourDream Home! In my opinion there are 3 main factors to consider:1. Do we enjoy living in our present location, as it is a lot of work and expense to re-locate.2. Can we work with this existing house and bring our ideas to life here.3. How long do we foresee ourselves in this location.All very important considerations indeed! First is going to be personal for each family andI just take into consideration the upheaval involved to re-locate.Second is where consultation with a professional Renovator can help you in there-configuration or addition to your existing layout.Third and most important with regards to your investment in any renovation is yourcommitment to location.If you have a short 1-3 year plan in mind then cosmetics and immediate repairs only oryou risk losing most of your investment. If you foresee a 5-10 year stay then I feel youare safe in the 50K to 150K investment into your property upgrades as you are nowrenovating to increase the value in your home plus adding livability and quality to yourlifestyle!Beyond that time frame it’s only about wants vs. needs and the total affordability of yourDream Project! MRP Renovations is here to solve all your renovatingWant’s and Need’s!For a free consultation call Mike Phillips Owner MRP Renovations.

Q: I’ve Been Served!A: Most of us have seen a television show or movie where a character is surprised bysomeone handing them an envelope or set of papers accompanied by an emphatic “You’vebeen served!” Sometimes a character goes to great efforts to avoid the critical moment inhopes of avoiding the law suit altogether. Drama ensues.The reality is, or should be, less dramatic. Legal service is often accomplished by having afriend or representative of the plaintiff contact the defendants and arrange for a time andplace to deliver the documents.However, few things are more anxiety-inducing than the realization you are being sued,and the temptation for some people is to create their own movie script and avoid allcontact with anyone who might possibly be bearing the legal documents. Agents for myclients over the years have encountered people brandishing weapons, people living in darkhouses behind closed curtains and people who refuse to acknowledge their own identityin desperate efforts to avoid being served. Unfortunately for these people, the plaintiff canapply to the court to approve an alternate form of service, such as posting ads in newspaperand online classifieds, and the plaintiff can then continue on without the defendant’sparticipation in the law suit.The best approach is to cooperate and accept service of the documents. Resisting servicemerely increases animosity between the parties and makes you look dishonest. But don’tstop there! Read the documents immediately so you know the case against you, how torespond, and when your response is due, so that you will be able to properly defend yourselfagainst the claim.

Q: If we have just listed our home and receive whatseems like a great offer very early, should weand do we have to take it?
A: Themarket is very hot right now andmany homes are receivingintense activity early on as buyer’s are experiencing limited choicesdue to the lack of current housing inventory. As experienced realestate advisors, we are strongly encouraging sellers of certain typesof properties to strategically wait until the new listing has had a longenough time to achieve optimal market exposure. If directed this wayfrom the beginning, buyers are instructed about when offers will bepresented and the seller can confidently know that their listing hasbeen on long enough to make a decision to accept an offer or not.Furthermore, creating a definitive plan with us before your home hitsthe market officially, will eliminate the awkwardness of turning awayreal buyers that want to write early. And, no, as a seller, you do nothave to accept an offer... even if it is full price. Many offers come withconditions thatmayormaynot be suitable to youandprice is only oneof the important parts of a sale contract.Wecanguideyou to structurethe terms of the deal that best suit your needs. In markets like this,you need an experienced real estate advisor to ensure that you do notundersell your property too early. Sometimes it’s best when the earlybirddoesn’t get theworm!

QUESTION:HOW IS THE “HIGHESTAND BEST” USE OF LANDANDPROPERTYDETERMINED?
ANSWER:If vacant the appraiser determines if the land should be developed and ifso what improvement should be built. If left vacant, when would futuredevelopment be financially feasible?• Should the existing improvements on the property be maintained intheir current state, should they be altered in some manner to makethem more valuable, or should they be demolished to create a vacantsite for a different use?• If renovation or redevelopment is warranted, when should the newimprovements be built?To determine highest and best use, the appraiser must analyze data,not just compile it. As an analogy, in applying the direct comparisonapproach the appraiser does not just compile a list of comparable salesfrom the market data; he or she analyzes the relevant sales. It is criticalthat a careful highest and best use analysis precede the applicationof the approaches to value. Otherwise, there is a high likelihood thatserious errors will be made in the valuation process.

QUESTION
I keep hearing about ‘new hearing aid technology’, buthow much can hearing aids have actually changed?
ANSWER
Like many other high-tech devices, hearing aids haveexperienced a major technological revolution in thepast decade, and specifically in the last several years.
The best of today’s hearing aids can do the following:
• Have settings adjusted by the latest iPhone® orAndroid devices
• Make listening in noisy environments easier and morecomfortable with adaptive directional microphones
• Virtually eliminate feedback
• Stream stereo sound from TVs and other mediaplayers directly to the hearing aids themselves
• Be used as hands-free Bluetooth devices
These features are contained within hearing aids thatare smaller (even invisible, in some cases) and morecomfortable and powerful than those that have beenavailable before.
We offer the latest technology available from all themajor hearing aid brands and are available at any timeto assist you. Call us at 604-943-0033 to book yourfree hearing consultation.

Pacersamodelof consistencyBoys volleyball teamheading toValleys looking for 14th provincial berth in 16 yearsMARK BOOTHmbooth@delta-opt imist .com
It seems like the same old storyeach season for the Delta Pacerssenior boys volleyball team andthat’s a good thing.
The Pacers have reached theprovincial AAA championships 13of the last 15 years and the Ladnerschool’s success goes back evenfurther when Delta Sports Hall ofFame inductee Barb Salt took onthe program in 1992. She eventu-ally passed on the reins to ShellThompson who continued themomentum.
Today, the school’s co-athleticdirector has taken on a differentrole — serving more as an admin-istrator and leaving the coachingto recent university graduates.
University of Toronto alumniJay Termonti is back for his secondseason and has been joined byformer Manitoba Bison CarsonKaurenhowen.
The 2015 edition of the Pacershave been hovering among theprovincially ranked teams allseason, listed as an honourablemention in the latest poll. They area solid bet to earn one of six B.C.berths up for grabs at next week’sFraser Valley Championships andadvance to the Langley EventsCentre, early next month.
“In terms of our continued suc-cess, you have to give a shout outto Shell who has been buildingthe program for a long time,” saidTermonti. “He works hard to getkids to play at Grade 8, Junior, theclub level and just to enjoy thesport.”
The Pacers have reached theprovincial podium once, earningbronze, but have never played fora B.C. championship. The quarter-final round has typically been theirmake it or break it point. Last year,they reached the final eight beforefalling in straight sets to eventual
silver medalist Kelowna.This time, a potential medal
path appears to be less treach-erous with the province’s mostdominant teams at the AA tier forsmaller schools.
“It’s definitely a little more wideopen this year,” agreed Termonti.“I think our guys understand thattoo. We have taken the positionthat anyone can win the pro-vincials this year. Obviously, wehave a lot of work to do at FraserValleys, but if we get to provincialswe are definitely gunning for a topfinish.”
The Pacers concluded FraserValley South League play Mondaywith a straight set home win overSeaquam to finish with a 7-2record. The highlight of the regularseason came a week earlier in afive set win over defending B.C.champion and previously unbeat-en Earl Marriott.
“It was quite the game anddefinitely gave us a chance to seewhat the guys are made of,” addedTermonti. “When the going getstough, we want to see themmanup and play our strong Ladnerball. It was ice to see against a
team like Earl Marriott.“We have some passionate guys
and a group that has played a lottogether. We are definitely one ofthose teams that is not about indi-vidual parts but the sum of partsthat makes us better. If we cankeep developing the team gameand fire on all cylinders, I think wecan be really dangerous.”
Delta has been seeded third forthe Valley Championships whichmeans a bye directly to Mondaynight’s quarter-final and a prob-able match-up with No. 6 SurreyChristian.

SungodPhysioteamsupwithTsawwassenSpringsMARK BOOTHmbooth@delta-opt imist .com
It’s a homecoming of sorts forTravis Wolsey and an opportu-nity to provide yet another ser-vice in the growing TsawwassenSprings development.
The South Delta SecondarySchool graduate and formerUBC Thunderbirds footballstandout put his Human Kineticsand Physical Therapy degrees,along with various diplomas,to work when he launched hisSungod Sports Orthopaedicand Physiotherapy Clinics.Wolsey and his team not onlyestablished locations at SungodArena and the Ladner LeisureCentre but also a list of impres-sive clients that includes NHLstars Milan Lucic and BrendanGallagher, along with SeattleMariners’ pitcher James Paxton.
He also has a working relation-ship with the Vancouver Giantsand it was co-owner Ron Toigowho approached Wolsey aboutopening a third clinic at hisTsawwassen Springs golf resortcommunity.
“I’ve been taking care of theGiants for over a decade and Ronmentioned to me a few yearsago about putting this together.He thought it was a good idea tohave a physio place there and it
made sense to me too,” recalledWolsey. “For me personally, as aTsawwassen guy, it’s great to seeall three (Delta) communitieshave high level physio.
“It’s been so much fun havingthe opportunities to work withpro and Olympic athletes and it’sneat to be to have this right hereat home.”
Wolsey’s clinic, which officially
opened last week, is also anideal fit for the golfing experi-ence that is near completion atTsawwassen Springs.
A covered driving range with aseparate teaching area is now inoperation. The impressive club-house across the street includesa pro shop, gym, Pat Quinn’sRestaurant and Bar and a stu-dio that is the new home of the
Tsawwassen Wellness Centre —Pilates and Health.
Head professional Chris Hoodsays Wolsey’s services and exper-tise reflects the needs of today’sgolfer — at the competitive andrecreational levels.
“Travis is Titleist PerformanceInstitute (TPI) certified. It’sbasically fitness performanceand how it all ties into golf,”
explained Hood.“I went through TPI and it
took about 90 minutes to do allmy (body) measurements. A guywho had never seen my swingor even me pick up a golf clubbefore nailed the problems ofmy swing. It’s based on improv-ing your stretching and range ofmotion and that’s where Travisfits in.
“The clinic is also great forsomeone needing rehab workor coming off surgery that mayneed some help to get goingagain or modify his swing.
“No where else are you goingto find a one stop shop like this.Lots of places have teachingbut you are sending them offto another place for physio ora gym workout. And with PatQuinn’s (opening soon) thereis the social side of golf that istaken care of too.”
Wolsey added his businessis as much about body mainte-nance these days as it is is reha-bilitation.
“It has just exploded and whatI see a lot of is injury prevention,”he said. “There was an epidemicof ACL tears with young athletesbut now we can do a lot to pre-vent those things. That’s why yousee so much strength and condi-tioning today. Physio and sportsmedicine plays a big role in that.”

The tears in our eyes we can wipe away,the ache in our heart will always stay.
Death leaves a heart ache no one can heal,love leaves amemory no one can steal.
We think of you yesterday, today and tomorrow.We think of you out loud and in silence,with more love than you will ever know.
As the days pass, our love for youbecomes amemory, but that memorybecomes a treasure. This treasure will
be with us for ever.
Love you. Miss you,Ann, Linda, Martin, Kerry and Serena.
