The legislation was quickly ap-
proved by the Senate and given royal
assent.
It imposes a settlement and ends
the lockout of nearly 50,000 postal
workers that began June 14 after a
series of rotating strikes at selected
cities across the country.
Angry postal workers protested
in Vancouver on Monday, denounc-
ing the Conservative governments
imposition of wages that are lower
than Canada Post had offered the
union earlier in the dispute.
Robert Mulvin, president of the
Vancouver local of the Canadian
Union of Postal Workers (CUPW),
said members are deeply disturbed
by the outcome, but will comply.
The feeling on our work oor is
that the management of [Canada
Post] has been working hand-in-
hand with the Harper government
from the beginning, he said.
The employer has had no incen-
tive to bargain in good faith, knowing
full well that the government would
intervene and impose the terms of
an agreement.
Workers at the Maple Ridge de-
livery centre and post ofce on
Lougheed Highway said they were
looking forward to getting back to
work after being locked out by their
employer, but said they arent happy
about how they are going back.
Theres denitely going to be hos-
tile, said one worker, who asked not
to be identied. Theres a lot of an-
ger and frustration right now.
CUPW local 704 president Cindy
McDonnell said the union may pur-
sue legal action to overturn the legis-
lation and allow the union to bargain
with Canada Post.
This is denitely not the end,
she said.
Last Thursday, locked out postal
workers staged a sit-in at local
Conservative MP Randy Kamps
ofce to protest the back-to-work
legislation, with a trio of workers
eventually being escorted out by
police at closing time.
The NDP Ofcial Opposition
fought the legislation, calling it a
threat to workers collective bar-
gaining rights, and tried to delay it
as long as possible.
The goal was to buy time for a ne-
gotiated deal that would supersede
the one threatened through legisla-
tion, but union leaders said Satur-
day further talks with Canada Post
were unsuccessful.
The NDP then tried to amend the
bill to raise the wage levels to be im-
posed, but the amendment was de-
feated by the Conservative majority.
An arbitrator will choose between
the nal offers of the two sides on
non-wage matters a winner-take-
all process CUPW denounced as bi-
ased against the union.
Labour minister Lisa Raitt said Ot-
tawa had to intervene because of the
risk of damage to the economy.
The service interruption spurred
many people to switch to online bill
payments or alternative delivery
services.
The ministry encourages anyone
with questions or concerns to call
1-866-866-0800.

Dont expect any major increases to education
funding while the province struggles to balance its
budget, education minister George Abbott said on
a tour of Maple Ridge schools Friday.
And while the HST wont make matters any easi-
er in the short-term, more money isnt the only in-
gredient necessary in creating a strong education
system.
Abbott was in Maple Ridge of Friday to tour
School District No. 42, as well as the independent
Meadowridge School.
The government announced of Friday it would
be increasing its education budget by 1.2 per cent
for the 2011/12 school year, an increase below the
national ination rate of three per cent.
Abbott blamed the governments scal pressure
on the continued fallout from the global economic
downturn.
B.C. has not been exempt from that, said Ab-
bott.
However, he put the onus on school boards and
district staff to come up with innovative ways to de-
liver education, within the constraints of ministry
funding.
A lot of times innovation depends not on dollars,
but on the board, Abbott said. Sometimes you
need dollars to do things, but not always. You need
to have the right plan, and then based on that right
plan ... you can move forward. But money alone will
never buy you a great education system.
However, Abbott recognized that while the pro-
vincial education budget has crept slowly upwards,
funding pressures faced by school districts have in-
creased, as well.
Has the growth been sufcient to deal with all
the pressures school district have encountered?
Abbott said. Arguably those pressures have grown
over time.
The scal pressure faced by the provincial gov-
ernment will likely worsen in the short term as a
result of the HST, he added, no matter what the
outcome of the mail-in referendum.
Its going to be challenging whether it passes or
fails, Abbott said.
If the HST is tossed out by the province-wide ref-
erendum next month, the provincial government
will have to pay back the federal government $1.6
billion. Should British Columbians vote to keep
the tax, the province will have to make good on
its promise to reduce the provincial portion of the
sales tax by two percentage points over the next
three years, causing a drop in tax revenue.
However, Abbott contends the HST will spark
economic activity in the province, resulting in a net
increase in tax revenues down the road.
We believe it is a superior way of drawing in
taxes, he said. But in the short run, it will be eco-
nomically challenging. Period. Theres no question,
its going to be challenging times.
B.C. Teachers, who are currently negotiating
with the province for a new contract, should not
expect much at the bargaining table as a result,
as Abbott reiterated the provincial governments
commitment to freeze public sector wages.
We dont have the exibility we did in 2006, he
said. Thats the reality we have to work with.
Abbott was quiet on the possibility of capital
funding for a new elementary school in the rapidly
growing Albion area of east Maple Ridge.

The sentence includes a cur-
few from 9:30 p.m. to 7 a.m. for
the rst ve months and 50
hours of community service.
A judgement released ear-
lier this month details how
Schepannek was caught de-
livering a package of pot, hash
and tobacco to her common-
law partner Jimmy Benoit,
who was an inmate at the
Fraser Regional Correctional
Centre in March 2009.
Schepannek was seen by
another visitor passing a
package over a glass bar-
rier to Benoit inside the 256th
Street prison.
Corrections ofcers re-
viewed video surveillance
after the complaint and Sche-
pannek was escorted out of
the visitors area for question-
ing.
Schepannek told the of-
cers she had passed tobacco
to Benoit.
The court heard the 40-year-
old woman was a mother of
four children, aged two to 12
years, and is the sole provider
for the family.
She has had a relationship
with Benoit, the father of her
two youngest children, since
2003.
She told the court Benoit
called her and said he was
in trouble and needed help
because some other inmates
were after him.
He asked her if she could
please, please, please do a
favour for him.
Benoit wanted Schepannek
to bring tobacco into the pris-
on for him on a future visit.
She said she did not want to,
as she knew it was illegal.
Benoit told her she would
receive a telephone call later
about the tobacco and that
she was to meet a guy.
Two days later, Schepannek
received a call from a man
who told her to meet him in
a parking lot of a Burnaby
school.
There she was handed a
sock that contained a cylin-
der-shaped object about eight
centimetres long and the
thickness of a small cigar.
The next day, she smuggled
the package inside the prison
in her underwear.
Besides the nine-month con-
ditional sentence, Schepan-
nek also received a 10-year
rearms ban.

THE NEWS/opinion
VICTORIA Here
are a few items that
didnt make the daily
news cycle as B.C.
residents prepared
for the long-awaited
summer of 2011 to
begin.
After her meeting
with Prime Minister
Stephen Harper in
Ottawa last week,
Premier Christy
Clark delivered a
luncheon speech to
the Economic Club of
Toronto.
Her big talking point for the speech
was the rise of the Asia-Pacic region,
the fastest-growing middle class in the
history of humanity. The theme ran
through her pitch to the federal govern-
ment for a share of Ottawas largest-ever
shipbuilding contract, and her recent
meeting with western premiers in Yel-
lowknife.
No word on how Clarks enthusiasm for
the west as Canadas economic engine of
the future went over with the Bay Street
crowd.
After the speech, Clark took the
wheel of a Chevy Volt electric car for a
spin around Toronto with a GM Canada
vice-president riding shotgun. She pro-
nounced the car fantastic technology.
This is pertinent as B.C. residents get
ready to pay the latest increase in B.C.s
carbon tax. Effective July 1, the tax on a
litre of gasoline rises from 4.45 cents to
5.56, with comparable increases to other
carbon fuels.
Clark has inherited Gordon Campbells
aggressive climate change-clean energy
agenda, and its not yet clear what will
become of it. She has committed to the
last consumer carbon tax increase in
2012 (up to 6.67 cents on a litre of gas),
but the fate of the big hydroelectric push
remains uncertain.
Those plug-in electric cars need to
start selling before Campbells gamble of
developing increasingly costly electricity
starts to pay off. One potential com-
petitor is natural gas-powered vehicles,
taking advantage of huge new shale gas
discoveries in B.C. and elsewhere.
Campbells pending appointment
as Canadas high commissioner in the
United Kingdom should warm the hearts
of conspiracy theorists.
The story broke when Clark was in
Ottawa, and when reporters asked for
her take on the appointment, her rst
comment was that hell be a big help in
negotiating a free trade agreement with
the European Union.
Students of Bill Vander Zalm will know
that he sees the harmonized sales tax
and EU trade as an effort to impose
world government and set B.C.s sales
tax rate in Europe.
Early in his goofy anti-HST campaign,
Vander Zalm claimed this was plan B for
world government after the conspirators
failed to impose a global carbon tax.
If the HST is a conspiracy, its a mighty
big one. Finance Minister Kevin Falcon
never tires of reminding people that
140 countries already have value-added
taxes, including China and those other
Asia-Pacic tigers that are dominating
the world economy.
Douglas College in New Westminster
and the Heilongjiang Institute of Science
and Technology in Harbin, China have
celebrated the graduation of 137 students
in their dual-degree business adminis-
tration program.
The program began in 2003, with an
exchange of instructors. At the Harbin
campus, students take 52 courses to
qualify them as specialists in global
nancial markets and international
banking.
By last year, there were 94,000 inter-
national students in K-12, post-secondary
and language schools in B.C. According
to the advanced education ministry, if
considered an export service, interna-
tional education is B.C.s fth largest
export, accounting for seven per cent of
exports from the province.
Meanwhile in B.C., discussion of
international trade still tends to revolve
around lumber and logs. And accord-
ing to a recent poll, Vander Zalm is still
considered by many to be an authority
on trade and taxes.
Its time to join the worlds adult con-
versation.

ICBC is offering its facial recognition tech-
nology to the Vancouver Police Department to
help identify those who committed crimes dur-
ing the Stanley Cup riot.
That seems mighty helpful, and useful.
And given the overwhelming embarrass-
ment, disgust and anger over the riot, public
sentiment might support such a practice.
And given the extent of damage to vehicles
and other property caused during the riot, this
technology could help curb increasing pre-
miums due to the number of claims resulting
from it, and make those responsible, pay.
But ICBC should be seeking that retribution,
not VPD.
This technology is available to ICBC to guard
against fraud.
Why dont Vancouver police have their own
facial recognition software?
Because being able to scan the face of every
Henrik, Daniel and Roberta violates the basic
rights and freedoms afforded Canadians in the
charter.
You cant treat everyone like a criminal.
In this country, we have freedom of con-
science, freedom of thought, belief, opinion
and expression.
We have freedom of association and freedom
of peaceful assembly.
Everyone has the right to be secure against
unreasonable search or seizure, to be pre-
sumed innocent until proven guilty.
With ICBCs offer, police would be able to
scan visible faces in every photo of the riot it
collects, and forever be able to trace the iden-
tity of each one. They have already received a
million images and thousands of videos.
Being flagged as associated with the riot
could affect how you are treated by police in fu-
ture or your ability to travel, or show in crimi-
nal record checks for volunteer positions, even
if you were guilty of nothing more than failing
to exit the riot zone quickly enough or were
just taking pictures.
We dont live in a police state, and we dont
want to.

EDITOR, THE NEWS:
Former premier Gordon
Campbell is set to become
Canadas High Commission-
er to the United Kingdom.
I (almost) dont believe it.
I might even think that Mr.
Campbell deserves this kind
of recognition, for 25 years of
public service.
However, theres a very
good chance that this is Mr.
Campbells reward for sell-
ing the people of B.C. out to
the federal government, by
bringing in the HST, against
the will of the people.
Now, apparently, it doesnt
matter that he had to resign,
because he had lost the con-
dence of the people of British
Columbia, and had sunk to
the lowest approval rating of
all premiers in Canada. For
some reason, all of a sudden,
he would make a great repre-
sentative for Canada. I dont
think so.
This looks like an obvious
attempt to reward him for his
loyalty.
What do you and I get? We
get to pay more tax, on sev-
eral things that werent
previously taxed. We get to
pay tax on tax on tax, and
we get to pay the bill for the
advertising that tells us how
wonderful it will be if we just
trust and wait.
Is the economy and em-
ployment improving? Have
prices come down?

Re: Pitt mayor defends insurance con-
tract (The News, June 24).
It seems the little secret at Pitt Mead-
ows municipal hall is out in the open
now and the mayor and his high-ranking
director of nance and director of corpo-
rate services are claiming that, after all
these years of buying municipal eet in-
surance from their boss, they were not
aware that they had to identify the fact
they were buying from the mayors own
insurance business.
Wow. These are people we pay with our
tax dollars to run our city and theyre
not aware of the charter?
Think again. The mayor himself has
stated he has 21 years in municipal poli-
tics and he does not know the charter?
Think again.
They claim it was done fairly by put-
ting out to bidders, but Pitt Meadows
municipal staff were the committee who
picked the winning bidder. Thats fair,
eh?
I think what should happen is they
tear up the contract and have the insur-
ance companies re-submit bids and have
an independent rm chose the winner
so there is now cloud of darkness over
the winner.
I know for a fact these people under-
stand the meaning of conict of inter-
est.

EDITOR, THE NEWS:
Re: Taking the fall (News Views, June

I must commend you on your recent
editorial regarding Pitt Meadows Mayor
Don MacLeans insurance contract.
Laurie Darcus should not be the scape-
goat.
Mayor MacLean has taken the oath
of ofce many times in his career. He
should know the content.
Pleading ignorance is not an option.
Furthermore, the attempts of some
council members to trivialize this mat-
ter is appalling.

EDITOR, THE NEWS:
Re: Taking the fall (News Views, June
24).
When I read the piece on Mayor Don
MacLeans involvement in breaking the
charter rules, the words ignorance of
the law is no excuse ring loudly in my
ears.
The utter arrogance of this mans re-
plies in his defense of the issue strongly
reect his tenure as mayor.
If anyone cares to watch the council
meetings aired on TV, you will most
likely agree. Very quick to slap down all
who break the rules, he now misdirects
and deects all criticism of his misdeal-
ing.
He should have known and needs to
do the honorable thing: give up the in-
surance contract immediately. We shall
know very quickly just how honorable
our honorable mayor is.

Thank you
EDITOR, THE NEWS:
Re: Pitt mayor defends insurance con-
tract (The News, June 24).
Council members, please take the high
road and publicly apologize to Mayor
Don MacLean regarding the insurance
contract.
I am disappointed that, as council, you
each did not check into who had the in-
surance contract. If I were on council, I
would have checked, for sure.
I would also check on other council
members who have businesses that may
have a potential to be employed by the
City of Pitt Meadows. All of you are re-
sponsible to check such matters.
As council and mayor, I also expect
you to be familiar with the charter, espe-
cially in potential or perceived conicts
interest.
I am ashamed that this information
came out at this time.
Mayor MacLean, I want to thank you
for all your years of service and dedi-
cation to Pitt Meadows. I never agreed
with you on many matters, nor did I al-
ways accept you at your word. But that
is just who I am.
You, sir, have served Pitt Meadows
brilliantly. Thank you.

Re: Can we avoid future riots (Letters, June 22).
Like Elizabeth Rosenau, I wasnt that surprised by the ac-
tions of the rioters.
I am surprised that Mrs. Rosenau feels the need to blame
young peoples actions on government debt, environmen-
tal degradation, unemployment, and climate change.
Are you kidding me?
I think if you asked one of those kids what their thoughts
are on any one of those issues, they wouldnt have one,
much less be able to spell the big words.
Older people have been in the shoes of these young
people. Mrs. Rosenau, when you graduated, there were still
problems in this world you didnt know about. You cant tell
me that everything was rosy. There is no difference when
we graduated from when the kids are graduating now, ex-
cept for more marijuana, date rape drugs, ecstasy, e-this
and e-that.
I am tired of hearing about how society causes kids to
make the wrong choices. The one thing society has been do-
ing is enabling kids to take advantage of loose laws. From
an early age, re-offenders in the community are taught
there are no serious consequences for what they do. How
many times does a kid get to steal a car before he gets it.
There is no regard for other peoples property. They could
care less about other people; its all about them, and I guar-
antee their parents taught them this.
I was tired of seeing kids pose for pics in front of a store or
car they set on re, seemingly ashing some gang symbol
they think is so cool.
So, I dont think Nathan Kotylak should be allowed to par-
ticipate on the junior national water polo team. He had to
confess, we had his picture. If that picture wasnt taken, do
you really think he would have turned himself in?
Its time to show that normal people dont do this kind of
thing. Lets have some consequences for once, and maybe,
just maybe, kids will think twice before doing something
they know is wrong.

Re: Pitt mayor defends insurance contract (The
News, June 24).
Anyone who has ever created a Request for
Proposal (RFP) knows how to do it in such a way
as to favor their preferred vendor. If the RFP were
truly objective, then it would not have included
subjective criteria such as familiarity with the citys
vehicle fleet. Subjective RFPs allow staff to follow
their process, award the contract to the vendor they
want and nobody has done anything wrong.

Re: Pitt mayor defends insurance contract (The

A more prudent and forward thinking person in the
position of mayor would have chosen to abstain
from participation in the RFP. That would have been
the correct thing to do. Too late now.

INFORMED: River Road Project
Construction Project
Nears Completion!
In the fall of 2010 construction of a storm sewer line
on River Road between Darby Street and Carshill Street
began. The project involved the installation of over one
kilometre of piping along the road and down under the
railroad tracks to the south of River Road. At the same
time, 600 metres of sewer lines, almost half a century old,
were replaced and upgraded. Over the winter there was
a temporary halt to construction due to the high amount
of rainfall, but recently crews were back in full force and
the project is nearing completion. Once all the lines are
tested, the road surface along the entire project area will be
repaved and remarked to better than the condition before
the construction. This project has addressed water and
drainage issues that have been an issue for area residents
for many years. The work should be completed by in early
August. The Engineering Department would like to thank
the residents of the area for their cooperation and patience
during the construction of this important area upgrade.
INFORMED: 2011 Property Tax
Taxes Due Monday July 4
A nal reminder that your property taxes need to be paid
by Monday, July 4, 2011. For those who prefer to pay their
taxes in person, the Tax Section of Municipal hall will be open
until 8:00 pm on Thursday June 30. You can also use the
drop box located in the lobby of Municipal Hall during ofce
hours or the outside drop box located near the Municipal Hall
entrance which faces towards the Maple Ridge Public Library.
Due to the labour disruption at Canada Post, the 2011
tax notices were mailed out early this year. Accompanying
your tax notice was a yellow information sheet that
outlines the various methods you can use to pay your
taxes and apply for your Home Owner Grant. In particular,
the information sheet highlights how you can do your
home owner grant application online and details of how
to sign up for the Pre-Authorized Withdrawal System so
that you can pre-pay your 2012 taxes in installments.
Using the information on the upper left hand corner
of your Tax Notice you can do your Home Owner Grant
application online in about ve minutes. Then pay your
outstanding tax balance using your online banking
system, and you will avoid waiting in any lineups.
Take a few minutes to review the yellow information
sheet that came with your tax notice. A few minutes
of reading could save you a lot of time in future years.

She had mentioned
inviting Vander Zalm
come talk to us, Pitt
Meadows Mayor Don
MacLean said Mon-
day.
She definitely men-
tioned Mr. Vander
Zalm to me in the tele-
phone conversation.
But he doubted
Vander Zalm would
want to talk to council
about its bylaw.
We just dont want
to be used as a forum
for a provincial issue
that is beyond our
mandate, MacLean
said previously.
When she original-
ly talked to me on the
phone, and the mayor,
we were under the im-
pression she wanted
to bring Bill Vander
Zalm to council to re-
ally talk about the
sign bylaw, as well as
the [anti-HST] cam-
paign itself, added
Darcus.
Thats where coun-
cil had a problem,
getting involved in a
political debate of a
provincial issue.
Bell, though, says
she never said Vander
Zalm would appear at
council; she just want-
ed to talk about the
signs.
Theres no way that
I would suggest that
Bill would spend his
time doing that.
But she didnt push
the matter because
she was given the
chance to speak.
Bell figures one of
two hunches could
explain the change
at Pitt Meadows city
hall.
One is the coming
municipal election in
November.
You can bet there
will be residents of
Pitt Meadows who do
want to have democ-
racy.
Or, two, the No side
could ask to put up
signs, as well.
I have a suspicion
it has something to do
for their own benefit.
Bell also cheered the
B.C. Civil Liberties
Association for writ-
ing to Pitt Meadows
last week, asking the
city to reconsider the
sign bylaw.
I think its fantas-
tic that people are
doing that. Its good
that people speak up.
Do we have a democ-
racy or not? Lets talk
about it.
Mike Vonn, with the
Civil Liberties Asso-
ciation, said the letter
told Pitt Meadows that
the sign bylaw is vio-
lating the Canadian
Charter of Rights and
Freedoms, Section 2,
on the right to politi-
cal expression.
It is sometimes dif-
ficult to bring home
to municipalities
that municipal law is
subject to the Char-
ter. All municipal law
must comport with
the Charter.
He said municipal
space can be regulat-
ed, but any restrictions
have to minimally im-
pair the right to free-
dom of expression.
And claiming that
there are some loca-
tions to put up signs,
while the majority of
space along roads is
banned under the by-
law, wouldnt stand up
in court, he added.
That was recently
reaffirmed in a recent
B.C. Appeal Court de-
cision against a Van-
couver bylaw that
restricted the right of
Falun Gong to demon-
strate.
MacLean said hes
already received the
letter and will refer it
to the citys lawyer.
Pitt residents will want democracy
HST from front
Theres no way
that I would
suggest that Bill
would spend his
time doing that.

Sofarelli and
Cheryl Let-
keman are on those
gravel roads, riding
through sleet and mud,
watching for moose,
enduring ies and
mosquitoes, you can
follow along, from the
comfort of your own
computer screen.
The Maple Ridge mo-
torcyclists leave today
for Inuvik, Northwest
Territories and the
Arctic Ocean, and you
can follow them for
many kilometres of
the way via high-def,
helmet-mounted cam-
eras, by clicking the
links on their blog at:

Thanks to wireless
Internet, motorcycle
fans can see how a
new bike on the mar-
ket, the 2012 Triumph
Tiger 800 XC, performs
in the Canadian wil-
derness.
Triumph Canada is
lending the bikes as a
type of extended road
test.
We were going to
do this ride anyways.
The Triumph is sort of
like a bonus, said So-
farelli.
The pair have
planned their camping
spots along WiFi hot
spots so they can keep
posting throughout
the trip.
While bike fans will
want to know if the
Triumph is triumph-
ing, Sofarelli wants the
focus to be on autism
and the charity Autism
Community Training.
Letkemans nephew
is autistic, so the pair
wants to use the trip to
raise some cash for the
charity.
My goal is $10,000,
said Sofarelli, a clini-
cal social worker in
the intensive care unit
at St. Pauls Hospital
in Vancouver.
So far, I think the
fact the money is com-
ing in before we leave
is hopefully a good
sign.
There wont be much
time to relax on the
long trip north.
They have to be in
Fort St. John by Can-
ada Day and in the
arctic a few weeks af-
ter that. Return date
is mid-August. GPS
tracking will provide
a constant update of
their location.
Weve got 45 days to
do the [14,000-kilome-
tre] trip.
That will also allow
them time to go off the
beaten path.
Watch riders head to the Arctic Ocean

Sometimes well disappear, off the
pavement, on purpose.
Getting to Inuvik will require riding
the Dempster Highway, which links
Inuvik on the Arctic Ocean, with Daw-
son City in the Yukon. The Dempster
can get greasy when wet because of
the calcium chloride and the chemi-
cals used during the winter.
Prudhoe Bay in Alaska is another
destination.
This isnt the pairs rst long-dis-
tance ride. Last year, they went to New
York and logged about 12,000 km.
This will be the longest trip in terms
of duration, Sofarelli said.
Its also the ride of a lifetime, she
adds.
When they return in mid-August,
the bikes go back to Langley Power
Sport and Triumph. Normally, So-
farelli rides a BMW F650GS, all-year
round. Since getting that bike last
spring, shes put 40,000 kilometres on
it.
I ride a lot probably too much.
Having a bike that can go on the
pavement as well as off road, allows
the freedom to go anywhere, on dirt,
rock or trails.
Its probably the most brilliant way
to travel on a motorcycle. Until we
grow out of this, this is the way were
going to do it for a while.
After that, it could be time for high-
way cruiser that just stays on the
pavement, Sofarelli said.
For now though, its off the beaten
path, whenever possible.
I like getting off the road. I like get-
ting away from people. You can sneak
behind the hills and everybody has to
take the main roads. Its awesome.
I like getting off the road
Pitt open houses online
The City of Pitt Meadows hopes moving
poorly attended open houses about bylaws
and regulations into a virtual realm will
attract more participation.
Residents will get a chance to comment
online about the citys draft energy and
greenhouse gas emission plan, as well as a
current review of its land use bylaw.
Open houses really dont draw the num-
bers, said city director of operations Kim
Grout.
City staff have been working on updating
Pitt Meadows land use bylaw since 2008, to
modernize the document and make it easier
to use and comprehend.
A land use bylaw regulates the use, size,
height, density and location of buildings on
properties within the city.
The other document up for comment
outlines strategies Pitt Meadows can adopt
to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions by
a minimum of 13 per cent of 2007 levels by
2017.
In a report to council, director of corporate
services Laurie Darcus said many people find
online access, at their convenience, a better
alternative to schedule open houses.
More information about the open houses is
available at pittmeadows.bc.ca. The green-
house gas emission plan will be available
for comment until July 13 and the land use
bylaw will be online throughout summer.

T
here will be lots
to do this Canada
Day with events
in Maple Ridge and Pitt
Meadows.
At Memorial Peace
Park in Maple Ridge, of-
cial ceremonies will
take place at 12:30 p.m.,
with the raising of the
Canadian ag. The Greg
Moore Youth Centre
will be awarding a youth
community achievement
award and Ineke Boek-
horst, executive director
of the BIA, will be hand-
ing out recognition for
those businesses that
participated in the Show
Your Colours for Canada
Day challenge.
Entertainment on both
stages will kick off at
10 a.m. with Suzi and
Friends for the children
and will end at 3 p.m.
with headlining folk
band Tillers Folly.
Sandra Borger, events
coordinator with Haney
House Museum, says
there will be a differ-
ent spin on Canada Day
events at the Haney
House Museum.
The theme this year
will be a carnival. There
will be face painting, a
colouring contest, crafts,
a dress up chest and
games including a bean
bag toss and croquet.
There will be refresh-
ments, as usual, includ-
ing, free popcorn and
cold drinks, cotton candy
by donation and Timbits.
In addition, staff and
volunteers in heritage
costumes will be giving
tours of Haney House.
We are giving it a
1950s air, says Borger.
Haney House is located
at 11612 224th Street
in Maple Ridge and the
Canada Day event will
run between 1 and 4 p.m.
The Maple Ridge Mu-
seum will be closed this
Canada Day.
It is shut down for two
weeks, until July 9, to as-
semble and install new
display cases purchased
with a combination of
grants from Haney Rota-
rys Wine Zest Program,
the Municipal Commu-
nity Grant Program and
private donations.
When complete, they
will display revamped
themes and new stories,
such as the history of
logging and farming in
the district, as well as the
Japanese settlement.
Only eight
per cent of our
collection is on
display, said Al-
lison White, curator
for the Maple Ridge
Historical Society, so the
new, larger display cases
will allow for more of it to
be taken out of storage.
The museum will
also have a new Finn-
ish settlement display
and one called Modern
Convenience, as well as
a temporary display fea-
turing the history of the
Maple Ridge University
Womens Club, which
performed puppet shows
and workshops at the lo-
cal library, schools, and
at arts centres around
the Fraser Valley, start-
ing in the 1970s. The club
wrote Maple Ridge: A
History of Settlement
which is still a hot seller
at the museum. Some of
the puppets they created
will be on display.
In Pitt Meadows, Cana-
da Day will be kicked off
at Spirit Square by an 8
km Athletes In Kind run
along with a pancake
breakfast, hosted
by the Pitt Mead-
ows Lions Club.
Ofcial ceremo-
nies will take place
at 10:30 a.m., featur-
ing the ag raising with
Scouts Canada and mul-
ticultural entertainment
which will continue all
day.
Following the opening
ceremonies, at 12 p.m.
there will a childrens bi-
cycle parade with prizes
for the most Canadian
bike and the most cre-
ative.
Yuens Martial Arts
and Youth Services will
be hosting interactive ac-
tivities for children.
Children are also wel-
come to take part in a
poster contest. Winning
posters will be displayed
on the website for the fol-
lowing year.
Entry forms can be
downloaded at pmcana-

Just as households can opt to
pay more for green electricity,
FortisBC is now offering to charge
its customers more to support re-
newable natural gas projects and
cut their carbon footprint.
Those who sign on will pay
about $4 extra per month to have
10 per cent of their homes natu-
ral gas designated as from biogas
sources, which avoids the extrac-
tion of fossil fuel gas.
The methane is initially being
captured at a landll in Salmon
Arm and generated from cattle
manure at Catalyst Power Inc.s
new anerobic digester in Abbots-
ford. Its upgraded to pipeline
quality before being pumped into
the gas utilitys network.
More biomethane is expected
to ow into the gas grid from
Metro Vancouver sewage treat-
ment plants in the future.
The offering is billed as a way
to choose a greener more sus-
tainable way to heat homes and
take action on climate change.
Its an innovative approach
that allows their customers to
take action on climate change in
a simple and cost-effective way,
said James Tansey, CEO of Off-
setters, a carbon management
rm that has endorsed the offer-
ing as carbon-neutral.
FortisBC (formerly Terasen
Gas) estimates the program will
save 5,000 tonnes of greenhouse
gases in the rst year, equal to
taking 1,000 cars off the road
each year.
The program will initially run
on a rst-come rst-served ba-
sis.
Theres limited supply of bio-
gas for renewable natural gas,
FortisBC spokesman Marcus
Wong said, adding it could be
opened up to more customers or
larger proportions of biogas use
as supplies increase.
Theres no locked-in contract
customers can opt out at any
time at no cost.
Subscribers pay 10 per cent less
in carbon tax on their gas bills,
because B.C.s carbon tax applies
on natural gas but not on carbon-
neutral sources.
Its the rst program of its kind
in North America.
Biogas so far costs more to pro-
duce than regular natural gas.
FortisBC is expected to sign an
agreement to buy biogas from
Metro Vancouvers Lulu Island
sewage treatment plant at $13.40
per gigajoule nearly triple the
current market price of regular
natural gas.

Carbon-neutral biogas is being pitched at a premium.

Meadow Ridge Rotary Club
A
ny child who attends one of the schools of
District 42 will see a long row of posters
of former students who have excelled in a vari-
ety of sports and now serve as permanent role
models for the next generation. Every year a
few new posters are added to this gallery Home
Town Heroes after the annual Rotary Sports
banquet has recognized their achievements. Any
visitor to any of our schools will be astounded by
the number of young people of our community
that has earned this distinction.
Some people exclaim, It must be the water,
but the members of the Meadow Ridge Rotary
beg to differ. Ever since the club was established
21 years ago, its members have supported our
youth by providing seed money for a variety of
sports facilities including baseball, lacrosse, an
all weather eld, elds for kids, sports courts
and many other projects. Now, our current
youth can participate and if so desired pursue
excellence in sports.
No one will dispute the benets of sports ac-
tivities while youth attend school to prepare for
their future careers. Sadly, the world economy
has been struggling for the past few years and
that has increased the number of local parents
who nd that they cannot afford to enroll their
children in the sport of their choice.
To help ll this gap in opportunities, the Mead-
ow Ridge Rotary Club with the assistance of the
Haney Rotary Club and Maple Ridge Chrysler
as our major sponsor, are proud to present the
FIRST ANNUAL ROTARY DUCK RACE, anticipat-
ed to be the most exciting community event of
the year! During the inaugural race on July 31st,
10,000 feisty rubber ducks will be launched into
the Alouette River at Maple Ridge Park to vie
for the nish line. To see the Ducks in Training
check out the YouTube video at: http://www.
youtube.com/watch?v=uXwXWEtdD_k
In addition to other amazing prizes, the Grand
Prize will be a brand new 2011 JEEP WRAN-
GLER SPORT 4x4 donated by Maple Ridge
Chrysler. The goal is to raise $100,000. The rst
$25,000 will go to the local KidSport program so
that the nancial barriers for participation in
organized sports activities are substantially low-
ered for the economically disadvantaged.
The balance of $75,000 will be disbursed to lo-
cal participating youth organizations and facili-
ties. There is still time and tickets available for
youth organizations to become involved in the
selling of the tickets. For more information email
info@rotaryduckrace.ca
How can you help? Buy one (or more) of the
feisty ducks for $10 each and you will help our
youth to become healthy citizens. And you may
also just drive home in a brand new Jeep, or
cruise to Alaska, or win any of the other amaz-
ing prizes which have all been donated by sup-
porting merchants of our community. For where
to buy tickets, visit www.rotaryduckrace.ca

Canada won the bronze medal
at last years ISF Womens World
Championships.
[We] are pleased that Surrey
has the opportunity to welcome
the worlds top fastpitch teams to
this tournament, said Bal Gosal,
Canadas Minister of State (Sport).
These young athletes will experi-
ence the thrill of participating in
an international competition and
get to know the true meaning of
spirit.
In the Womens Elite division,
the host club, the White Rock
Renegades, will be taking on
teams from California, Venezu-
ela, and Nanjing, China. The host
Renegades will have a total of six
teams taking part in the Open
Championship.
The Ridge Meadows Minor Soft-
ball Association will be well rep-
resented at the tournament with
six teams taking part. The Pride
93 and Pride 94 teams will both
be competing in the top tier U-19
Futures Gold division, while the
Rage 93 team will be competing
in the U-19 Futures Select divi-
sion.
Both the Pride 95 and 96 teams
will be competing in the U-16
Showcase Gold division, while the
Rage 95 squad will be in the U-16
Showcase Select division.
From elsewhere in Canada,
clubs from Alberta and Saskatch-
ewan will be taking part, as well
as American clubs from Alaska,
Arizona, California and Hawaii.
Tickets can be purchased online
at CanadianOpenFastpitch.com,
as well as at the parks. The action
kicks off at 10:30 a.m. on Saturday,
July 9 with womens play, as the
White Rock Renegades face-off
with the California As. The third-
place and rst-place games will
be played on Saturday July 17 at
1:30 and 6:30 p.m., respectively.
All in attendance will be treated
to some special events during the
festivities. Young softball players
aged eight to 16 can sign up for
the Shaw Youth Clinics (between
now and June 30) for a chance to
play with and learn from some
of the worlds top-ranked teams.
Registration is available online at
CanadianOpenFastpitch.com.
Visit the Scotiadome marquee
tent for the Celebration of Softball,
which offers a number of activities
and exhibits for kids, parents and
players. There will also be a Soft-
ball Heroes marquee tent, where
past superstars, umpires, local
coaches and other heroes in the
softball world will be on-hand to
enlighten and entertain you with
stories and conversation. There
will also be a Guys Night Out, a
special night dedicated to the boys
and men of fastpitch in B.C.
Both Softball Heroes and the
Celebration of Softball are free
with admission to the Scotiabank
Canadian Open Fastpitch Interna-
tional Championship.
Of course, all of this is possible
with the help of 450 volunteers
who have given their time to help
make this tournament one of the
worlds largest fastpitch champi-
onships.
A championship of this scope
requires an enormous amount of
planning and commitment on the
part of the tournament committee
to incorporate essentially three
tournaments into one event,
said Dennis Bidin, president of
Softball B.C. This championship
allows all of our softball fans an
opportunity to see what can be
accomplished by dedication, hard
work and focusing on goals to be
the best in your sport.
This year, fans and spectators
will also be able to participate in
the coverage of this event. Upload
your photos to Flickr, join in the
conversation on Facebook, and
use #COFP11 on Twitter to join
in the fun and report what youre
seeing from the stands of the ball-
parks. Specic instructions will
be available online at BCLocal-
News.com.
In addition, Black Press and its
local coverage will be providing
exclusive coverage of the cham-
pionship, with videos, stories and
multimedia going up on BCLocal-
News.com. Dont miss our special
