A prayer to guide us all

Christian group meets weekly in
“We thank you that we have
these facilities in our commu-
nity.”
Even B.C.’s provincial politics
were remembered, with NDP
and Liberals both mentioned,
while another prayed for MLAs
Michael Sather and Marc Dalton

medical technicians, hospitals

on the list.

ence of the upright and God’s
favour, the community of Ridge-

S
ometimes they’ll
gather around a
table in a quiet
meeting room in Maple
Ridge municipal hall,
but usually it’s in
council chambers where
the group does its work.
While council is removing open-
ing prayers from its meetings, a
handful of Christians gives their
prayers for anyone in and outside
the public’s eye and have done so
every Tuesday at noon hour, for
the past dozen years.
“We pray for the mayor and
council and the school district,”
for police officers, firefighters,
seniors, First Nations, prisoners
and politicians and “to have a
spirit of harmony in the health-
care system and so that doctors
can carry on their work,” says
Jennifer Turner.
They gather under the banner
of Prayer Canada, the goal “to
encourage Christians to pray
for their nation and to estab-
lish weekly prayer meetings in
legislative buildings, city halls,
churches and homes.”
It’s not a closed group, either.
“Whoever wants to come, can
come,” Jennifer’s husband, Bry-
an, explains at one of the meet-
ings in late November.
The couple attends Maple Ridge
Community Church.
Along with Bryan and Jenni-
fer, Eric and Violet Kwiatkows-
ki from Maple Ridge Baptist
Church have stopped in, along
with Carol Kichard, who attends
Westwood Community Church in
Coquitlam.
“I feel that what we pray for is
really good,” said Jennifer, add-
ing the group also prays for the
school system and to protect the
schools against vandalism.
Last week, only five showed up
for prayers on a gray, rainy day.
They were moved from council
chambers because council and
staff needed the room for budget
discussions.
Better weather usually brings
out more people, and Tuesday
seven of them returned to their
usual place, around a small table
in the quiet of council chambers,
for the noon-hour meeting.
Dennis Hemminger, Violet Kwiatkowski, Eric Kwiatkowski, Bryan Turner, Jennie Turner, Connie Pigeau and Nadine Sands,
pray in the Maple Ridge council chambers Tuesday morning. The group spends an hour in the council chambers every
Tuesday, praying for “the spirit of harmony and that the right decisions get made.”
Violet Kwiatkowski and Eric Kwiatkowski pray along with the rest of the group.
“We pray for God’s decisions
to guide them [politicians],” said
Bryan.
“We need to pray for a spirit of
harmony in the health system,”
added Jennifer.
“It’s very spontaneous, but we
do have a list,” she explained
earlier.
Jennifer started the prayers,
asking for the Lord’s blessing to
mayor and council, so they make
wise decisions.
Heads bowed and hands folded
as each took turns.
“We ask that you bless our
mayor and council … to make
wise decisions,” said Bryan.
“Father, I thank you that we

Meadows is exalted,” reads the
conclusion of one of the prayers.
The group is one of a 100 or so
that meet under Prayer Canada’s
banner across the country.
In Maple Ridge, the group
started when Carl Durksen was
mayor in 1994 to 1999 and has
been going every week since.
The prayer hour is not time just
for idle chit-chat, either. Each
member takes a turn offering
prayers.
While they sit in council cham-
bers, the members of the prayer
group have little communica-
tion with the politicians, though
sometimes they see Mayor
Daykin, who attends Burnett Fel-
lowship Baptist Church.
“He always says to us, ‘that I
need those prayers,’ “ adds Jen-
nifer.
“So we pray especially for
our mayor, Ernie Daykin,
that you bless him. We
pray for the council, all
councillors. We pray that
you guide them and direct
them in all the decisions
they have to make in this
country.”
Jennifer Turner
The group is aware of council’s
change of its policy in starting
its meetings. Instead of begin-
ning its regular council meet-
ings with opening prayers from
members of the Ridge Meadows
Ministerial Association, council
will now start with a “moment of
reflection,” and wants all faiths,
Christian and non-Christian, to
take turns offering prayers, read-
ings or blessings.
The prayer group prefers the
previous arrangement.
“We strongly believe in the im-
portance of prayer,” says Eric.
“We certainly are in favour of
prayers for council meetings.”
“Especially since we started
off as Christian country,” added
Jennifer.

Not so fast in Albion
SmartCentres has put forward a concept plan
that doesn’t propose big box retail in the Albion
flats.
But like the Pelton proposal, it would also be
built on agricultural land.
SmartCentres has actually come up with two
proposals for the west side of the flood-prone
flats, one featuring residential space, the other
with more for light industry. Both include 390,000
square feet of “village” style commercial space,
with more walking and less parking. It would be
called “Albion Village.”
The plans also include a 90,000-square-foot agri-
cultural facility, as well as trails, green and gath-
ering spaces, and claim to respect and protect
environmental areas.
To the east, it suggests space for more employ-
ment, as well as recreation and educational uses,
more industrial, residential and commercial.
The first, and foremost, hurdle to clear is the Ag-
ricultural Land Commission, which shot down the
Pelton business park application pretty quick.
The Albion lands would have to come out of
the agricultural reserve, and a consultant hired
by the district has already said that, because of
stream setback regulations, developing a big box
shopping centre in the flats is not possible.
But SmartCentres has a little experience build-

Of course, any self-respecting physi-

Both by law and ethically, that is the
right thing to do.
On the other hand, if the same mother
would treat an animal the way she treats

That makes one wonder where our

doubt on whether anybody else in a

a darn.
Fortunately, there are other situations
that do restore my faith in humanity.

sick patients who needed to be trans-
me that I can get a hold of my specialist
colleagues in Winnipeg almost immedi-
ately after I call. That is often in sharp
contrast to the many hoops the family
physicians in the Lower Mainland have
to jump through to have the patient
admitted to a hospital.
Since one of the patients had a
woman’s health problem and the other
a cancer that had spread, I ended up
discussing the two patients with differ-
ent colleagues. And both of them agreed
that it would be better for the patient
to come to Winnipeg, but that it would
not endanger them if they made use of a
scheduled flight rather than an air am-
bulance evacuation. That is to say, they
should leave that day.
I then called back to the nursing sta-
tion and left instructions how to prepare
the patients for their travel.
In the meantime, the nurse had specifi-

he would feel strong enough to travel to

And at both places there would be a
doctor available to attend to the patient,
if necessary.
The next call was that the plane was
full and the patients could not get on.
The nurse in charge then asked if there
were any passengers willing to wait for
the flight the next day.
Without any hesitation, three pas-
sengers gave up their seats so that the
patients and their escort could get to
Winnipeg that day.
That amount of generosity towards
fellow human beings restored my faith in
humanity.

new leader and premier
of B.C.
“I think she really ap-
peals right across the
spectrum,” said Wakel-
ing, who was the con-
stituency assistant for
former Liberal MLA Ken
Stewart.
That doesn’t often
happen with politicians,
Wakeling added.
However, while she
may have strong support
among the general pub-
lic, the challenge is con-
vincing Liberal members
when they vote.
Clark said she’d raise
the minimum wage above
the $8 an hour mark, now
the lowest in the country,
and wants to scrap the $6
training wage given to
young workers.
“We shouldn’t have the
lowest minimum wage in
the country. Whatever
the minimum wage is, it
should be the wage for
everybody.”
Wakeling said that,
so far, no one has said
they want to seek the
Liberal nomination in
Maple Ridge-Pitt Mead-
ows to try to defeat NDP
representative Michael
Sather.
The next provincial
election is scheduled for
2013.
Stewart said he hasn’t
considered running
again, and that he is
backing George Abbott,
largely because he called
him first about six weeks
ago. But he could have
supported Clark if she
had called, he added.
“I think either one of
them would be a good
premier.”
Clark hasn’t said
where she’ll seek a seat if
she wins the leadership,
but likely another MLA
would resign and the
most logical is Gordon
Campbell.
After serving in the
B.C. cabinet, Clark spent
the last four years as talk
show host at CKNW,
where she learned “not
to be so scared of report-
ers,” and that everyone
has opinions that count.
“I learned that people
prefer straight talk to
bafflegab.”

Ridge RCMP find three guns in car

Two men and a woman
were arrested by police
Wednesday in Maple
Ridge after officers dis-
covered several guns in
their van.
The trio were stopped
by Ridge Meadows
RCMP’s Street Enforce-
ment Unit around 10:30
p.m. while driving east
of the Albion flats on the
Lougheed Highway.
During a check of the
vehicle, officers saw a
shotgun, so the trio were
placed under arrest.
A handgun and a rifle
were discovered inside
the van after the three
were taken into custody.
The men, both aged 30,
and a 24-year-old wom-
an were held overnight
for a court appearance
Thursday.

Hydro rates rising $7 a month

Bills projected to rise
10 per cent each year
by J eff Nage l
Black Press
Expect to see your household’s
monthly electricity bill climb $7 in each
of the next three years.
B.C. Hydro is now projecting a series
of rate increases that will raise a typi-
cal monthly residential bill by $21 – a
nearly 30 per cent jump from $71 to $92
– by 2013. The Crown corporation needs
to raise $6 billion to upgrade aging
power stations, transmission lines and

system.
“To pay for these much-needed proj-

ects, we need to increase rates, while
still looking at every way to keep them
among the lowest in North America,”
B.C. Hydro president and CEO Dave
Cobb said in a statement.
The planned hikes mean a typical
home will pay about $250 more in 2013
than it did this year.
B.C. Public Interest Advocacy Centre
executive director Jim Quail said the
rate increases are likely to continue
indefinitely, with electricity bills dou-
bling about every eight years.
“There’s no end in sight,” he said. “A
number of their projections are prob-
ably optimistic. We think If anything
it’s conservative.”
The much higher cost of modern pow-
er infrastructure compared to the dams

built in the 1960s is the main reason.
But Quail also blames policy decisions
like buying higher priced “clean” elec-
tricity from run-of-river power plants
and the move to install smart meters in
every home, which he predicts will be
a billion-dollar boondoggle rather than
an investment paying off in conserva-

The utility had raised rates 9.3 per
cent on an interim basis last April, but
regulators at the B.C. Utilities Commis-
sion have ruled only a 7.29 per cent in-
crease was justified. Customers should
get the difference refunded in early
2011.

Hellebores, the new Christmas plant
G ardening by
Brian Minter
P
oinsettias have a long and interesting
history, becoming the No. 1 indoor pot-
ted plant grown in the world today.
The many new varieties and colors pro-
duced each year keep them at the forefront
as a Christmas season plant.
In the northern hemisphere, however, they
are a very long crop for growers and require
a great deal of labor and energy to produce.
A huge amount of research and breeding
work has been done to develop new varieties
that can not only finish in cooler tempera-
tures, but also be more durable to survive
both indoors and out.
For years now, I’ve been on a quest to find
alternate cool season plants that could be an
alternate to poinsettias and still have a con-
nection to many of our Christmas traditions.
The Christmas Rose, helleborus niger, is
certainly one of the top candidates.
Over the past few years, greenhouse grow-
ers have been refining their production tim-
ing and forcing them into bloom at slightly
higher temperatures in order to have those
beautiful helleborus blossoms open for the
month of December.
In zones 6 and above, this works well as an
outdoor garden or patio container plant, but
in zones 5 and lower they need more protec-
tion.
The challenge is to find a room cool enough
for them to last indoors.
In Europe, winter blooming hellebores
have been very much a traditional Christmas
gift for some time now.
The Heuger family has been at the fore-
front of new breeding to develop better early
winter blooming varieties that could be
enjoyed over the holiday season.
The concept was to develop a series of
plants that would naturally bloom in pro-
gression from November through March.
If they were gently forced into bloom at
slightly higher temperatures, they could pro-
vide a long lasting flowering plant that could
be enjoyed indoors then set back out into the
garden to be enjoyed for many years to come.
Out of this research came the Helleborus
Gold Collection, which displayed many new
characteristics. This collection all bloomed
on first year plants if they were started at the
right time.
Second, they provided lots of blooms that
produced over a long period of time, and
third, the blossoms were all forward facing

white flowers with a slight pink blush in cool-
er weather. I love their deep burgundy stems
and the blossoms have a faint perfume,
which makes them ideal as cut flowers. It is
one of the earliest blooming hellebores and
has the traditional glossy deep green foliage.
• Helleborus niger ‘Joseph Lemper’ (Zone
4), one of the very earliest to bloom, has very
large pure white blooms that appear slightly
turned, facing upwards. As the blooms
mature, they turn an attractive green. The
foliage is very attractive, and a rich, dark
green.
• Helleborus niger ‘Pink Frost’ provides a
nice variation with its burgundy and white
buds that burst open to a lovely soft pink
which darkens with age. As the blooms open
in sequence, beautiful shading, from white
to pink and red, takes place. Even if it never
bloomed, its scented deep green leaves,
unique vein display and marbled sheen
rivals any evergreen perennial.
• Some of the new varieties being released
this year are H. n. ‘Cinnamon Snow’ (Zone 5),
with its creamy white flowers touched with
rose and cinnamon. The buds also have a red
accent and as the blooms open, they create
quite a show. The leaves are very scented
and rich green, providing a nice contrast to
the blooms.
• Helleborus n. ‘Winter’s Bliss’ (Zone 4)
has rosy buds opening to a creamy white
with a delightful dark pink reverse. It’s quite
compact, but the leaves are fairly large and a
very shiny dark green.
• Helleborus n. ‘Silver Moon’ (Zone 4)
produces creamy white flowers with a tinge
of pink that ultimately changes to a beauti-
ful dusty rose. Its habit is quite upright with
lovely silver leaves held erect by rosy stems.
• Helleborus n. ‘Winter’s Song’ has dark
pink buds that open into classic ivory blooms
with a pink reverse. It’s quite a sprawler,
with fairly large lance-shaped green leaves
tinged with silver.
Placed in attractive vases as cut flowers, or
planted in wicker baskets or pots and kept
reasonably cool (12-15°C) they will last for
weeks indoors and can become a wonderful
Christmas gift and new tradition. On very
protected patios, they can stay outside in full
bloom and tolerate up to 8°C of frost without
any harm. You are going to see the first

Tips for healthy holidays
T
he winter holi-
days are a time
when we often
get thrown off our
regular routines, eat a
little extra and do less
physical activity.
Over the years, the
routine seems to be-
come so ingrained that
we just expect to put on
weight.
But if we approach
things armed with
some planning and
helpful ideas, we can
stay healthy and active
and, believe it or not,
you could even lose
some weight.
It is true that many
animals, from bugs to
bears, store fat to help
survive the cold winter
months. They do this
to insulate themselves
from the cold, but also
because food is often
scarce with a thick
blanket of snow on the
ground.
Other animals flee
the cold by migrat-
ing. Some species of
birds gain twice their
normal body weight by
fattening themselves up
before the long, ultra-
marathon migration of
thousands of miles to
warmer climes.
But since the advent
of central heating
and refrigeration and
containerization for
food distribution, we
don’t have the need for
fat storage as a survival
strategy. We can’t let
that be our excuse.
Here are some tips
that will help keep you
healthy and also won’t

Be proactive and
start a fitness routine
before the holidays.
The best defense is a
good offence. You could
even lose some weight
before Christmas. And
if you do, it will not be a
disaster if you put them
back on again during
the holiday.
With our mild
winters, there are still
many activities to do
outside during the
holidays, or you could
go swimming or public
skating indoors. Why
not try something out
of the ordinary and –
go snowshoeing on the
local mountains.
And before you say
to yourself, “I’m not
very good at skat-
ing or snowshoeing
so I wouldn’t get a
very good work-out,”
remember that poor
technique and in-effi-
cient movement require
lots of energy and still
burn calories. And
you will have fun and
improve in time with
persistence.
