Dead are Langley residents Shawn Kleiberg, 20 and Cheryl Brolund, 18. The couple were found unconscious in the car, parked in the 1100-block of 216 Street, at about 2 a.m. Kleiberg was in the driver's seat and Brolund was beside him, and efforts to resuscitate the couple failed. Police said autopsies of the bodies and an examination of the car would be performed this week to determine cause of deaths, although foul play is not suspected. Officials are warning the public to be wary of sitting inside idling vehicles, as carbon monoxide cannot be detected by any human senses and is commonly known as the "silent killer." If circumstances are right, it is possible for an exhaust leak to enter even a moving vehicle and harm of kill the occupants. Motorists who suspect their car has such a leak should have it inspected and repaired promptly. mm GOOD SPORTS: Old friends, Jessica Dyck and Norm Grohmann team up again this year for the Variety Club's Bowl for Kids, which begins Saturday, Jan. 6 at many bowling alleys, including Alder Lanes. Pledge sheets for the fundraiser are also available for the event, running to Jan. 21. In the past nine years, more than $1-million has been raised for children with special needs. Langley spared GVRD tax hikes BURNABY - Greater Vancouver Regional District directors have approved a 1996 provisional budget of $344.3-million, up $24.4-million over 1995. Nearly all of the increase is to cover essential upgrading programs for drinking water, wastewater treaunent, and new hospital construction and equipment. The tax impact on the average homeowner will vary widely in the region. The figures vary because lhe average house assessment is different in each municipality and, in some instances, because of significant differences in the services provided to the municipality by the GVRD. The average 1995 assessment on a single family house across the region is $289,000. In Langley township, the average assessment of $208,531 will see 1996 GVRD taxes drop by $2 to $168. The average assessment of $179,183 in Langley city will see 1996 GVRD taxes drop by $34 to $174, however this unusually large drop is due to an adjustment made this year to its regional water rate. All of the other 18 members of the GVRD will see GVRD taxes increase in 1996, ranging from North Vancouver's and Port Moody's low of $2, to the high of $32 in Coquidam. The GVRD said that the regional average increase of $7 per household is required for wastewater programs, including the $650-million upgrading of the Annacis Island and Lulu Island treatment plants to secondary treatment; an increase of $3 is required for hospital construction and equipment; $2 more is required for drinking water improvement programs. These increases are offset by a decrease in solid waste programs resulting from changes in the distribution of users. There is no residential tax increase for numerous other GVRD programs including air quality management, regional parks, strategic planning, the 9-1- 1 emergency phone service, municipal labour relations and general government. The budget includes debt charges on 1996 regional capital construction programs totalling $399-million. GVRD funds are collected with municipal taxes, some of which are shown separately on the municipal bill. The final GVRD budget must be adopted by the board of directors by the end of March. FREE CLASSIFIEDS FOR STAR SUBSCRIBERS — INFORMATION INSIDE By MONIQUE GALAZKA ALDERGROVE - January saw the first meeting of the Abbotsford City Council with a promise of no tax increases for five years, something they are working very hard to keep. Still to come for council in 1995 were discussions of a logo and coat of arms for the city, alignment of taxes between the municipalities, street renaming, the creation of a sewer connection between Abbotsford and Aldergrove, and the contentious issue of legalized secondary of suites. Meanwhile Township taxes increased. John van Dongen won the Abbotsford byelection taking much needed support from the B.C. Reform party. Fraser Valley West Reform MP Randy White launched an attack on the immigration system, in particular the case of convicted criminal Bounjan Inthavong. As the year progressed, White would push for further investigations into odier criminals abusing the immigration system. On January 6, Melanie Carpenter was kidnapped from her place of work in Surrey and subsequently killed by a man, who should have been in jail but for some strange reason was allowed to roam the streets. It was just one of many acts of extreme violence against women by men that would make headlines in 1995. Outraged citizens went on a Please see page 2...

An unidentified man was arrested and released On promise to appear in court to face firearms charges. Police said alcohol was a contributing factor in the more than three hour ordeal. Witnesses said the man fired a number of rounds from a rifle inside a residence, although police said there was no reason to believe the shots were fired at any person. Most of those inside fled, and the shooter surrendered to police without incident. Warning out on sex predator LANGLEY - RCMP have issued a warning after a man with a history of sexual offences harassed several girls and women in the Walnut Grove area on Boxing Day. The man was picked up by officers and interviewed, but has not been charged. On Dec. 26, police received two complaints about the man, the first from two twelve year olds who said he'd asked them for directions and offered them $100 if they would go with him to show him the way. The other complaint was from two women who said he'd asked for directions and then made several rude remarks to the women.

Police have determined that the car was not his own, as he usually walks or rides a mountain bike if he's not in a borrowed car. In their interview of the suspect, police said they determined he has a history for committing sex offenses and "admitted to being actively exposing himself to teenage girls in the Walnut Grove area. In the past his activities escalated from minor exposings to finally sexual assault with a weapon. Mc admits his lack of control is increasing, and (hat he is becoming more and more active." Staff sergeant Rick Lawrence said they "are not prepared to release his name or address except to confirm that he has been a resident of Langley for approximately five years." However, "Tlie safety of the community is a major concern to die Langley RCMP, and we want all citizens to be aware of this individual's presence." The suspect is described as white male, 46 years old, 5'9" tall, 165 pounds, with short greying sandy coloured hair, hazel eyes and a moustache, although he sometimes has a full beard or several day's growth of facial hair.

Municipal councils were plagued with delegations calling for its removal. It was eventually removed, but in March the library board changed its mind and allowed the distribution of the publication, provided it is kept 69" above the floor or behind the counter, at the librarians discretion. A scries of prison outbreaks in the Fraser Valley sparked fear in the community and citizens began putting pressure on city councils to do something about it The federal government's push for gun control upset Canadians. Debate of the issue would finally be over in December. Aldergrove resident Fred Fischer suffered a financial setback after thieves broke into his storage locker and stole $250,000 of expensive, uninsured medical equipment. The township comes up with a pro|X>sed bylaw, to ban exotic animals and circus performances using wild animals. The bylaw would also affect their sale and possession. It left a lot of grey areas and generated lengthy and heated community debate. Local parents were upset with a clause in the teacher's contract allowing teachers with more Crime spree ABBOTSFORD - Police have arrested a man in connection with three robberies following a 13 hour crime spree on December 29 and 30. No weapon was produced during the hold-ups of the 7-11 on McCallum Road, and a Bank of Nova Scotia branch, but the suspect did brandish a knife during the robbery of the Circle K store on Clearbrook Road. The 42 year-old man, who was also arrested on a Canada wide warrant for suspension of statutory release, was charged with one count of armed robbery and appeared in court this week to face additional charges. itimmtm—ii Did you move into the area recently?V l^,^iM^i—a Are you a new mom or a mother-to-be?

February saw the beginning of the end of the Canadian Forces Station Aldergrove, but left several questions. Would it ever be truly closed, would it's closure save the federal government money, and what will happen to tlie land it sits on? Randy While contracted the same flesh eating disease as Bloc Quebecois leader Lucien Bouchard. He suffered no permanent damage and returned to work almost immediately, against doctor's orders. Talks began about the Fraser Highway bypass and are still continuing, with little progress having been made. Two contentious issues for Township council arose in February. One was was the revision of the crematorium bylaw, tlie other a plan to pay bonuses to staff who find ways to save money on the operating budget. It was also the beginning of uproar among seniors and die disabled over the home care workers strike that left many without proper care. March brought the crematorium issue back to Township council, and they backed off on proposed changes to utility billing. The Hurtubise family home was invaded by Coordinated Law Enforcement Unit officers, after they received complaints about the Cyber Playground being distributed over his bulletin board service. All computer and video equipment, including the children's Barney tape, was seized. They denied any wrongdoing. The Aldergrove Community Policing station enjoyed continued success under the supervision, of Constable Al Wakelin, who would end up taking over as the RCMP liaison officer at Aldergrove Community Secondary. Norma Janzen, the teacher fired from the Langley School district because of her refusal to join the Langley Teacher's Association, continued her fight despite serious setbacks tbat could cost her a lot of money. Amandah Sinclaire stepped up her fight to stop her dead son's child from being adopted out by the Ministry of Social Services. Her visitation rights were supervised .and limited, but will be cut off-if the child is formally adopted. The school board hired Susan Everett as the new Superintendent of schools. Players Bingo was shut down due to a lack of attendance, cutting 33 charities from their funding. In April the provincial government announced their Lower Mainland Nature Legacy program, which would see $55-mil- lion in major park expansions for the province, including tliree in Langley. Police formally announce that there is a serial arsonist at work-in the area responsible for at least 17 fires, as the intensity and number of fires increases. Two dogs went on a devastating rampage at Brian Uphill's sheep fann killing over 22 sheep. The dogs were destroyed. On the bright side community support for the Uphills was outstanding, as people came from all over to help him care for the injured animals and feed the orphaned lambs. Talks of the Fraser Highway bypass continued. Farmers plead for a break on sewage system niles. The school board cut more than 20-maintenance jobs to try to make up for a $3.1-million shortfall. B.C. transit reviewed service in Langley after years of complaints from residents and politicians. May saw the 50 Anniversary of the liberation of I loll and and over 13,000 Canadians, who had fought in the war, returned for a celebration* including Langley's Clifford Burchell, who was a member of the First Battalion of the Black Watch. Abbotsford city councillors vote themselves a pay raise for 1996. Kohler's European Sausage Ltd., one of Aldergrove's biggest businesses, gave termination notices to employees indicating that the shop would be closing. Abbotsford residents get vocal about the aftermath of the Home Care Support Workers strike, including cuts to services, and job losses. The Star starts a series of articles investigating business opportunities in Washington State. In June students at Betty Gilbert Elementary held a ceremonial potlatch to unveil their new totem pole, carved by First Nations carver Rick Harry (Xwa- lack-tun). Over 400 Township residents turned out for the hearing for the application to remove 500 acres of land surrounding the town core from the Agricultural Land Reserve. Support for the application was about 50-50. Township council began discussions on the Cultural Centre, the debate about which wUl continue for a long time to come. The Arson Task Force arrested James Delvis Morrison in connection with the series of arsons that plagued the area for over a year. In July, Agee the first polar bear trained to act in film, made her first media appearance. Many animal right's activists were angered by the media circus surrounding the bear, who will be appearing in the movie Alaska due out this year. The RCMP handed over their logo and emblem to the Disney corporation for safe keeping, because they are better able to keep control over marketing. Also the RCMP Business Watch program came to Aldergrove, with positive results. The program is similar to Crime Watch and Block Parent programs. The Aldergrove Thrift Shop celebrated its 25th birthday. The shop, nui by local volunteers, supports charities locally and worldwide. In August, although more tha 40,000 people attended Agrifair, total attendance was down by about 16%. Heavy rain is believed to be the major factor. The fair lost money, presenting an ongoing problem to Abbotsford council, who were asked for more money from fair organizers to pay off the debt and help with the future of the fair. Debate rages on about the building of a Cultural Centre in Langley. No one really knows how much it is going to cost Abbotsford council took useless action against Canadian Pallet Inc.'s illegal operation, in response to several delegations complaining about noise and dust from the plant. The case, which goes back over a year, is heading for court in February, and council is still awaiting legal advice as to what they should do in the mean-. time.

Clark and Cull can't hide from debt legacy DAWSON CREEK - BC Reform leader Jack Weisgerber predicted that the NDP's record of increased taxes and debt will be their political swan song, regardless of who wins the leadership race. "At a time when the government is raking in almost 40% more in taxes and over double the natural resource revenues received in 1991, we still see the debt increasing by over $1-billion a year," said Weisgerber. "It took the province 120 years, until 1991, to accumulate its first $5-biIlion in direct debt, yet it has only taken the NDP four years to more than double that amount to over $10-billion. Similarly, tax-supported debt soared from about $10-billion in 1991 to over $19-billion under this gov ernment. "The most incredible fact revealed by the Public Accounts is that the government has spent every penny of its windfall revenues, year after year - and still had to borrow billions of dollars each year. "Any government worth its salt would have reduced the direct debt with a portion of the extra $5-billion a year in revenues this government is taking out of the economy, instead of doubling the debt, as Glen Clark and Elizabeth Cull have done. "Clark and Cull have been the architects of their government's tax aud borrow strategy, and, regardless of who wins the NDP leadership, they are going to have to carry the can for their record in the upcoming election."

JANUARY 3.1996 Assessments are now in the mail Recovery seen for '96 ABBOTSFORD - Property owners are now receiving their 1996 assessment notices, according to area assessor, W.W. Colbert- More than 27300 assessment notices have been mailed to property owners in the Township of Langley. All properties in the province share a common valuation date, July 1, 1995, providing an equitable market value base for property taxation. The real estate market determines the value of property, and B.C. Assessment reports that value to the property owner and taxing authorities, Colbert said. Market Movement. Most houses on this year's assessment roll are worth the same or less than they were the year before. For example, a single family home that sold for $260,000 in the summer of 1994, would likely sell for approximate- ly $245,000 in the summer of 1995. Most condominiums have also shown moderate decreases in value as evidenced by sales in the Township of Langley. Typically, a condominium which sold for $120,000 in the summer of 1994 would sell for around $ 115,000 in the summer of 1995. Townhouses generally experienced a similar drop in value. These examples illustrate local market trends for different types of property. However, trends in the market place can vary, based on many variables including location, size or age. Some residential assessments have increased due to changes on the property such as new construction, development, renovations, zoning and classification changes. Roll Growth. The Township of Langley's assessment roll has remained constant at approximately $7.5-bil- lion in the last year. "While market values have generally shown moderate decreases, there has been no overall change in the total assessment roll for the Township of Langley, as the drop in the market has been offset by new development in the area including subdivisions, rezoning and new construction. Growth in the assessment roll is less than previous years as lower market demand has affected both Farm education boosted VICTORIA - A $30,000 grant to support public education for British Columbia's diverse agriculture industry was announced by agriculture minister David Zirnhelt "The B.C. Agriculture In The Classroom Foundation is a valued partner in building public support for our farmers and ranchers," said Zirnhelt. "Through a well- informed student population, others can learn how the agri-food industry provides wholesome food, jobs and a way of life for thousands of people that contributes to the health and economic well-being of all British Columbians." The grant will help the foundation implement its long-term strategic plan, establish an office manager to oversee operations and develop content for core curriculum subjects in B.C. schools. In the past three years the ministry has provided $104,000 for projects which include a Grow B.C. teacher's handbook, commodity map of B.C. and science resource programs for grades 1-7. Ministry office space at its Cloverdale facility will also be provided to the foundation. Zirnhelt said the plan calls for strong support by B.C.'s agri-food industry. "It is essential that industry support it both financially and with educational materials." "Our students are the decision makers of the future," said Mt. Lehman dairy fanner Linde Cherry, president of the AITC Foundation. "It is encouraging that both government and industry recognize that an informed and supportive public is essential in keeping our agri-food industry strong." market trends and the development industry," Colbert said. "If any property owners feel their property assessment does not reflect market value as of July 1, 1995, or the information contained on their assessment notice is incorrect, they are encouraged to contact B.C. Assessment directly." The office has assessments by address available for property owners to view. This easy-to-use reference provides individual property values which can be compared to similar properties in the community to help owners determine if their property was fairly assessed. Lists of assessments by address are also available in Langley's local libraries. The Langlcy/Abbotsford area assessment office is located at $240-31935 South Fraser Way, Abbotsford. During the month of January, office hours are 8:30 am to 5 pm, Monday to Friday. Trees make good trails ALDERGROVE - District Scouts remind the public to bring their Christmas trees in for recycling this Saturday, Jan. 6, at Aldergrove Legion, 26607 Fraser Highway. Trees will be chipped and spread on trails at the Scouts' Camp McLean Park in south Langley.

OTTAWA - Residential construction and renovation spending are projected to increase next year, reports Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation, in its fourth quarter National Housing Outlook. Total housing starts are expected to reach 120,500 units next year, 12 per cent higher than the 107,700 units anticipated this year. Most of the increase will be in the single family market segment, where starts are forecast to increase 20 per cent to 74,700 from this year's level of 62,500 units. 'The upturning housing activity will be due to a combination of factors," said Gilles Prouix, chief economist at CMHC's Market Analysis Centre. "A gradual improvement in economic conditions and employment trends, as well as fewer new unoccupied houses will help sustain both the resale and the new home markets." "In the resale market, we should see more stable prices and 282,000 MLS sales or almost eight per cent more than this year," Prouix added. Provincially, Ontario housing markets are expected to lead the rest of the country with total SELL IT FAST IN THE STAR -- CALL 856-8303 starts, primarily singles, increasing by almost 23 per cent to 43,000. Quebec will also see a solid rise of 22 per cent in total starts at 25,500 units. However, this will only be a partial recovery following the drop in 1995. In British Columbia, however, housing markets will continue to be down, with total starts five per cent lower due to fewer multiple starts. There will be some improvement in the Prairie region where markets in all three provinces will see growth over 1995 figures. In the Atlantic region, New Brunswick will experience the strongest growth followed by Prince Edward Island. Marginal declines are forecast for Nova Scotia and Newfoundland. The fourth quarter NHO report also includes CMHC's Renovation Market Outlook which projects a 4.3 per cent increase in spending, to $19.4-billion, next year.

Chief Andy Thomas said the land on Victoria's Inner Harbour was given to his people as a reserve in the 1850s. But by 1859, the original "Birdcages" Parliament Buildings were being built on the village site, widiout any proof of a legal transfer of title. "Yes, we were robbed. I don't know what else you could call it," Thomas said. He said his 150-member band would be seeking compensation for the lost lands in cash when land-claim and treaty talks begin. "Though the Parliament Buildings would certainly make a heck of an administration building," Thomas said. He said his great uncle Edward Joe always maintained tlie land on which the Parliament Buildings sits was a traditional village site for his people, whose biggest and most permanent settlement was on Esquimalt Harbour where their current reserve is located. When die Esquimalt band, or Kosapsuin as they are more properly known, signed their treaty with Hudson's Bay Company governor James Douglas in 1850, provision was made for their original village sites to be reserved for them. Anthropoligist Randy Bouchard said there was no record of the decree reserving the site. However, the reserve is accepted as a fait accompli in several references during the 1850s in the correspondence of colonial officials and minutes of die colonial council. The minutes of March 25, 1859, for example, state "A Plan, contemplated by his Excellency for building the various Government Offices & residences on die Indian Reserve near James Bay & selling the Government land near the Fort to defray the Expenses was next discussed." Bouchard, who is working under contract to the Esquimalt band, said there is evidence the Kosapsum abandoned the reserve in the 1850s and offered it to sell it. What is missing is any record of such a sale taking place. "We may still find it. There are lots of places still to look," he said. The colonial and later the provincial governments reclaimed part or all of several reserves dose to white settlements through orders in council or legislation. .These "reclamations" were conducted legally, but their unilateral nature has made them the basis for specific settlements by the provincial government in the past decade. Thomas said his ancestors may have simply moved of their own accord to their main setdement on Esquimalt Harbour, perhaps to escape one of the smallpox epidemics which periodically spread to B.C. natives at Fort Victoria. He said he was speaking up now because of dissatisfaction with the current round of treaty talks. The chief said bands such as his, which have already signed. treaties, were being left out in the cold. The band may take further action if the government persists in ignoring it. "We may just go and occupy the place. I don't think it will bother anybody, not with this government," Thomas said. Sources close to the Songhees Band, which also has a reserve on Esquimalt Harbour, indicate that it too is considering making a claim on the Parliamentary grounds. The Songhees and Kosapsuin are two extended family groupings within the same tribe, Bouchard said. Aboriginal Affairs Minister John Cashore said the claim the Legislature lands were stolen was news to him. "I haven't heard about this specifically but I've heard of that happening. It wouldn't surprise mc," said Cashore. Banks rolling in dough VANCOUVER - Next time someone tells you, "We can't afford social programs," tell them about the Royal Bank. On December 5, the Royal announced humongous profits of $ 1.26-bil- lion in 1995. This is the biggest profit in Canadian banking history, and an increase of 10 per cent from last year's profits. In spite of its profits, the bank does not plan to reduce customer service charges or even to keep people employed. Royal Bank plans to shed about 1,000 jobs. The other Canadian banks are also rolling in dough. Combined profit at Toronto Dominion, Scotia Bank, Bank of Montreal, Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce and the Royal is a whopping $5.18-billion. Just for comparison, Human Resources Minister Lloyd Axworthy plans to cut $2-billion out of unemployment insurance. The federal government plans to cut about $3.5-billion out of health, welfare, and education payments to provinces over each of the next two years. They like to travel VICTORIA - While the NDP government imposes record tax increases on British Columbians, the travel budget for NDP cabinet ministers was one-third higher in the last fiscal year, BC Liberal Finance Critic Fred Gingell said. Figures obtained from the pub-. lie accounts documents released Dec. 19, show the Harcourt cabinet spent $572,000 on travel in the last fiscal year, a 34 per cent hike over the previous year. Moe Sihota's $49,000 in travel expenses were the most of any cabinet minister followed by Elizabeth Cull, who billed almost $43,000 in travel expenses. "These expenses cleariy show the government was preparing for an election this year and pulled out all the stops in an effort to get cabinet ministers around the province to tell British Columbians what a wonderful job they were doing," said Gingell. "The big losers were the taxpayers of British Columbia." And NOW Communications - the company that was established by NDP insiders after the last election to receive government contracts - received $1.6-million from the Harcourt government in the last fiscal year.

The CRTC has denied BC Telephone the broadcast licence that is necessary in order to proceed with the convergence of providing both cable television and telephone service through the same distribution system. We are the only province in Canada that is being denied competition in this matter because BC Tel is 51 per cent foreign owned, and this does not meet the requirements of the Canadian Broadcast Act. The result of this decision not to grant BC Tel an exemption from that provision of the Broadcast Act will be to maintain a virtual monopoly for such companies as Rogers Cable in the provisioning of cable television service, as well as a host of new and emerging services associated with the growth of technology, while stifling our freedom of choice of suppliers and the growth of the infrastructure necessary to provide full access to the Information Highway of tomorrow. So, while the rest of Canada is leaping ahead into tomorrow, we the people of B.C. will be denied access. It is also interesting that, at the same time as denying the Broadcast licence to BC Tel, the CRTC is also promising to open up avenues so that current holders of broadcast licences will be able to compete in providing local telephone service as well as long distance services, but obviously diey do not anticipate a two way street. The technology is currently available to build an infrastructure that would be the envy of the world. One that could provide access to voice, video on demand, interactive video, high-speed high-density data transmission, full access to tomorrow's Information Highway and a host of other state of the art services all at the same time; but, to be econom ically viable, a broadcast licence is mandatory. BC Tel may be 51 per cent foreign owned, but we, the workers of BC Tel, are Canadians. We are the people who have been providing quality telephone service to the four corners of British Columbia for over 100 years as employees of BC Tel. We tiVe in the Central and Upper Fraser Valley. We are deeply involved in our communities and community activities. We contribute to our communities through the Telephone Employees' Community fund, one of the largest charitable contribution funds in the province. We help sponsor and organize minor sports. As working members of our communities, we contribute to our local economy. Our issue for the broadcast licence has already received very positive editorials in the Vancouver Sun, the Province, and odier newspapers. The provincial government has recently signed a provincial accord widi BC Tel to use their leverage, as the largest user of telecommunications in the province, to encourage BC Tel to expand access to the technologies of tomorrow to every community within B.C. Public opinion seems strongly in favour of BC Tel, as a provider of choice, to be allowed to compete in all aspects of telecommunications; but we still need the help of every citizen and every community widiin B.C. to appeal to the federal cabinet. It has been said that every letter received by a federal politician is considered to have the weight of over 1,000 votes. I urge you to write to the federal minister responsible, the Honourable John Manley. Contact your city and municipal councils to appeal on your behalf. Talk to your elected representatives to encourage their support on this very important issue. You can write postage free to: John Manley, Minister Responsible for Industry Canada, 307 Confederation Building, House of Commons, Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0A6. RON DRISCOLL, President Local 32, TWU. — . LETTERS No support from Ottawa Editor, The Star, Sir, On December 11, the Canadian Press carried an article from Geneva, stating that the UN Human Rights Committee had rejected the claim for compensation for slave labour for Canadians who were imprisoned by the Japanese in World War II. The decision from Geneva docs not turn aside the claim. It means only that the Human Rights Committee does not have jurisdiction to rule that Canada must bear eventual responsibility. The obligation of our government arises from the fact lhat Canada let Japan off die hook by signing a peace treaty without regard for the rights of Canadian PoWs. Moreover, for the past eight years, Canada has consistently refused to support the claim against Japan filed by the War Amps al the United Nations. As chief executive officer of the War Amps and patron of the Hong Kong Veterans, I have now written to Prime Minister Chretien, pointing out that, in ils finding, the Human Rights Committee stated (hat there are remedies in Canada to resolve the dispute. One of diese remedies includes a challenge under the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, which we now have under preparation. Also, we must question the statements made in Tokyo by (he Secretary of Stale for Veterans, Lawrence MacAulay, who is quoted as stating lhat the issue is between the I long Kong Veterans and the Japanese government litis was true when wc first filed the claim in 1987. Mr. MacAulay is obviously unaware, however, (hat Canada also bears responsibility as a signatory to the Geneva Convention and (he Optional Protocol. This means that (he Canadian government is accountable for ils actions if a gross violation of the human rights of a group of Canadians by another country has occurred - and that country refuses to pay compensation. The United Nations found in 1991 that Japan had committed such gross violations of human rights and had ignored its responsibility to pay reparations. The rejections now by the Human Rights Committee does not mean that Canada can escape its obligation under international law by relying on the Committee decision which was based on technical and procedural issues. The responsibility still exists, and we will exhaust every effort to see that Canada provides payment to these aging veterans. Incidentally, if the Canadian taxpayer foots the bill (a little over $15-million), the Canadian government can go after Japan for reimbursement After all, the claim is a valid one under the Geneva Convention - one of the most important international covenants among nations in the world. |§yf H.

Introduction of the permanent system is expected to reduce NOx emissions at the plant by more dian one-third and bring the plant well within new higher standards Start year in fitness mode ALDERGROVE - It's the classic New Year's resolution: start exercising to get into shape and maybe lose a few pounds, too. If you're determined to exercise for health, the "triple" play approach offers the best chance for success, according to Barbara Grantham, a representative of Take Off Pounds Sensibly. "The three elements of the 'triple play' are aerobics, strength training, and stretching," Barbara said. • Aerobics "are the base for overall fitness," Barbara said. 'They include brisk walking, jogging, swimming, cycling and other activities that use large muscle groups at a regular pace, raising the heart rate. For best results, aerobics should be done three or more times per week for at least 20 minutes per session." * Strength training exercises like lifting weights, "fortify you for daily activities and for your aerobic exercise. They strengthen bones, lessen arthritis pain and stiffness, and ultimately help you lose weight as you reduce fat and increase muscle mass." * Stretching is an often-overlooked portion of the fitness equation. "Regular stretching keeps you limber, helps to prevent stiffness that comes with age, and increases your resistance to injury, especially during exercise." Experts recommend slow, gradual stretching after a good warm up - for instance, at the end of an aerobic exercise session. If you're exercising to lose weight encouragement is as close as your nearest TOPS chapter. TOPS members use mutual support to adhere to their exercise regimen and diets to reach their weight goals.

VANCOUVER - Once in a while we hear that some famous person such as Ronald Reagan has Alzheimer disease, and we may shrug it off as something that doesirfafiScFhs directly. It may surprise you to know that over 30,000 people - mostly over 65 - have Alzheimer disease or related dementia in B.C. alone, plus another 30,000 family caregivers also being affected. As our population ages, the numbers will keep growing, month by month, year by year. Alzheimer disease is a progressive and fatal disease of the brain. It results in memory loss, confusion and, in time, the loss of control of basic bodily functions. The cause is unknown. There is no cure. We must find answers before it overwhelms our health care system. January is Alzheimer Awareness Month. The Alzheimer Society of B.C. is part of a world-wide network of non-profit societies working to help people understand this dreadful disease. They fund local research both in B.C. and nationally and bring help to those afflicted with this disease and dieir caregivers. If you think you have Alzheimer disease in your family, real help is close by; wherever you live in B.C. contact the Alzheimer Society of B.C. at 1-800-667-3742.

Environment Minister Moe Autoplan instalments rate drops VANCOUVER - A drop in the prime rate of interest is good news for motorists purchasing automobile insurance on the Autoplan 12 instalment payment plan. "With interest rates falling across the board, we are able to lower the Autoplan 12 rate to 10.5 per cent," said Mike Dakin, Autoplan 12 manager. "At this time of year it's good to be able to offer our customers a bit of a break." At the current Autoplanl2 interest rate, which is three points above the prime rate, the financing charge for a $1,000 premium is $63,60, including a $15 administration fee. When the program was first offered province-wide in early October, an interest rate of 11.25 per cent meant a financing charge of $68. Sihota said the new regulations were far ahead of those in the rest of Canada. "The B.C. cleaner gasoline regulation - die first of its kind in Canada - will make a big difference to public health," said Sihota. j BANTAM C / BRUINS ONSORED BY: ALLIED WINDOWS & ALDERGROVE CREDIT UNION ALDERGROVE 1995 CHRISTMAS BANTAM "C" TOURNAMENT TOURNAMENT GAME SCORES & FINALS WEDNESDAY DECEMBER 27 - Aldergrove Credit Union vs Qoverdale 1 -4 Aldergrove Allied Windows vs Chilliwack 2-6 Coquitlam vs Hastings 3-0 North Delta vs New Westminster 7-4 Hastings vs Aldergrove Credit Union 8-1 THURSDAY.

VANCOUVER - November's residential sales, province wide, were like the weadier, says Rosemary Barnes, president of the British Columbia Real Estate Association. "Dull, with a few bright spots." "Sales in November were down 379 over the same month last year," she said. "Last year, 5,158 properties were sold compared to this year's 4,779. "But there have been some bright spots. Buyers have a large and competitive inventory of homes to choose from, which tends to moderate market prices. The recent decline in the mortgage rate brings more homes into the buyer's affordable range. And while almost all areas of the province are seeing a slowdown in their markets, housing sales in the Kamloops and Vancouver Island areas have, since September, been better than in the previous year." With mortgage rates at seasonal lows, Barnes recommends serious buyers obtain a pre-arranged mortgage before they start looking. 'There are bright spots in the market," she said. "You just never know when they will shine." i BANTAM A BRUINS SPONSORED BY: PAC CAN DUTY FREE ALDERGROVE 1995 CHRISTMAS BANTAM "A" TOURNAMENT DECEMBER 20 Aldergrove Bruins 3 * Mission Huskies 2 PERIOD i 11ST ALD S.Robinson (B.Henthorne) 12:00 ald S.Kobliuk (C.Cdonval, K.Roberts) PERIOD 2 10:04 mis J.McKamey (D.Bittner) EEB______ 0:44 mis D.Bittner (D.Rudd.

He also sponsored amateur sports, and fundraised Tor the Salvation Army on a regular basis. The Abbotsford Air Show had another successful year. In September 'Auntie Meow,' Madalynn Gilmore, had to stop her efforts to find homes for stray cats, after the tenant's organization in her building ordered her to stop it. The strata rules have a limit of one cat per household. She had taken in and found home for thousands of cats over the years. Fraser River swimmer Fin Donnely passed through Matsqui Trail Park during his swim from the river's source at Mount Terry Fox to Delta* in an effort to raise awareness about the state of the river. He said the pollution level was noticeably higher as he passed Agassiz, but he did find a positive sign under the Mission bridge: a seal. Mushroom composting first reared its ugly head and would continue to be a contentious issue for Township council the rest of the year. In October the Township's chlorine disinfection of the water system began. Warnings were sent out to aquarium owners and people using kidney dialysis machines to dechlorinize the water before use. Miriam Fournier and her boyfriend were killed by her estranged husband . Fournier had feared for her life and had made several calls to police concerning her husband in the months before she was killed. Police issued a press release in November which stated that "A thorough internal reVrew. into the entire matter has revealed that in all cases, with this one exception, the department applied the appropriate policy and procedures relating to violence against women in relationships." Sixteen-year-old Tanya Smith was killed aud her friend Misty Cockerill badly beaten, sparking the biggest manhunt since the search for Olson. In the weeks that followed there were taunting telephone calls from the killer saying he would kill again. Although some similar attacks were originally attributed to him, there has not been another attack. Police released a composite drawing of the suspect and recordings of his voice, hoping it would generate a strong lead. They now have a suspect in connection with another incident, but have not laid charges in connection with the death of Smith. The Cultural centre issue came up ugly again, as Township councillors called each other names and stormed out of tlie chambers during a public meeting. The culture task force was suspended. In November White referred to the Quebec referendum results, as 'the worst of all possible scenarios, a tic.' Ted Penzer, a member of the Aldergrove Elks Lodge #66 since 1947, celebrated his 103rd birthday with fellow Lodge members. He attributes his longevity to 'the luck of the draw.' Gordon (Red) Gosling, 80, died at MSA Hospital. Red was the son of Irish immigrants, Mr. and Mrs. A.R. Gosling, who started their family business on Montrose Street in Abbotsford over 74 years ago. Inthavong was quiedy deported. White called his removal a major victory for the people of Canada, but added that he is only one thug, there are thousands more to go. In his year in review interview with the Star, White attributed this little community with forcing the federal government to open formal diplomatic relations with the People's Republic of Laos.

Although most have been captured, many were run over by cars, or succumbed to the elements. Rippin was not insured for this type of vandal ous act In December, amidst ceremonious pomp, Abbotsford finally received its new coat of arms from Chief Herald Robert Watt. Holiday festivities included a community effort to put up the lights in Aldergrove. Reindeer visited Murphy's Christmas Tree Farm and Santa set up a workshop in Downtown Langley. On the sad side, a mean-spirited Grinch stole Erik Simonsen's decorative Grinch. The major issues of the year continue: mushroom composting, and the cultural centre in the township, and the legalization of secondary suites in Abbotsford. All in all 1995 was an eventful year of ups and downs that will not soon be forgotten. Local phone rates get approvals BURNABY - The number of different rate groups for local telephone service in British Columbia will be reduced from 21 to 11 effective January 1, 1996. The Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission has granted interim approval to,BC Tel's revised prp- posal to consolidate local rates. The restructuring reflects the increasing similarity in the value of telephone service customers receive throughout B.C. Under the approved plan: • 36 per cent of residential lines in the province will sec an increase in local rates of up to seven per cent - or a maximum of 95 cents a month. The average increase will be 25 cents a month.

ASK ANNABELLE Dear Annabelle, I have just decided to switch my long distance calling to Sprint Canada - because of B.C. Tel's latest display of greed. How many of your readers have noticed the Christmas season TV commercials with that greasy twit going ou about B.C. Tel's big gift to us of lowered long distance rates up to Dec. 30? Of all the colossal gall! That hypocritical message capped a multi-million- dollar advertising campaign by the former monopoly to shut out the competition in long distance service. And how does B.C. Tel pay for that huge propaganda campaign? By putting our basic telephone rates up by nearly $3. Who pays the most for that basic service? We do - the residents of the district of Langley. With GST, our rate will soon be nearly $30 a month. B.C. Tel reigned as an arrogant monopoly for so long, its directors can't get it through their hoggish heads that they can no longer keep rubbing our noses in it. Of course die CRTC (Catering Regularly to Telephone Czars) goes along with the base rate increase; diey always do. Now, I don't know if I'll save much money by getting away from B.C. Tel long distance service, but that's not the point. The point is to stop supporting this bunch of bandits as much as I can. If we all drop their long distance "service", maybe the swinish 'louts will actually feel the pinch. Many years ago, B.C.

Happy New Year to you, too, you pack of Scrooges. Signed, Tony Eberts. Dear Tony, There are many people who feel the same way (and not only in Aldergrove.) You can write to the CRTC in Vancouver; their address is: Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission, 1380 - 800 Burrard Street, Vancouver, V6Z 2G7. Dear Annabelle, Now that tensions have eased somewhat between Russia and America, I think it is time we all concentrated on the one final threat to world security. That's right, I'm talking about alien invasion. Have you, dear Annabelle, ever stopped to consider that these gelatinous mucoids form beyond die wall of stars are waiting only for a propitious moment to pounce upon our lonely little planet and wreak havoc with their energy beams and futuristic Commie ideas. These spineless monstrosities (ever eager to drive stock market prices down) cannot be trusted - let alone trusted to look after the kids! It is time for Man to act decisively. I propose that everyone over ' IM 'agg ol u iu un cudiC'wuiiu be given the largest of Tupper- ware containers. These containers should never be out of sight. Then, when the evil fiends appear, we will be able to scoop them into the Tupperware, slap on the lid, burp it, and the foul creatures will be safely contained. If something isn't done in the very near future, I will not be held responsible for the consequences. Stressed by the Unknown. Dear Stressed, I think it's time you had a vacation. The only problem is those creatures are everywhere. I personally have seen them on our driveway when we come home from a party. You are right, something should be done. The first dung that comes to mind is to join Alcoholics Anonymous. The second thing is to write to the CRTC. Good luck. flldergroue Public market SPONSORS THE FRASER VALLEY'S LARGEST HORRY SHOW located in the ALDERGROVE MALL 1 block north on 272nd St. just off the Fraser Hwy.

'It took a litde while and then it was just like Christmas," enthused member Elnora Smith. 'The replies began rolling in, not only with words of deep appreciation for our concern for the unity of Canada, but also for the caring and sharing shown by sister members from the other side of the country". She went on to say that it seems each were thrilled to hear from the other. Not only was the Houston letter read at meetings, some had it printed in English newspapers and it was mentioned in numerous Women's Institute reports. One lady sent the address of a French newspaper, suggesting Houston have their letter translated into French and send it there. "And that is what we are trying to have, done now," added Smith. Quebec Women's Institute members are predominantly English speaking, and definitely, as they said, "all good Canadians". As well as letters, the Houston members received many interesting clippings, photos, postcards, W.I. programs, several newspapers representing the Anglophone perspective, and even a lovely apple cookbook and a book on W.I. Pioneers. The Women's Institute kitchen table network has been successful again. Information on local W.I. meetings can be had by calling 533-6564.

The department wants to receive patients' views on the quality of care provided and are conducting a survey to collect this information. "One of the best ways to learn what patients think about a service is to ask them," explained Connie Cowan, the hospital's director of corporate services. "Patient feedback helps us identify where improvements pan be made which are important to those who visit the hospital. This shows us specific changes we may need to make to serve our patients as well as possible." Emergency patients will be randomly selected and given the survey questionnaire, along with a letter from medical director Ron Matthews and nursing coordinator Penny Wellar explaining the hospital's reason for doing the survey. The survey will ask for patients' ratings of service by registration staff, the triage nurse, as well as the physician and nurses involved in their treatment. Patients will be asked how often they use the emergency department, their opinion of the length of time they waited, and to identify the most important aspects of excellent emergency room service. "Patients can either fill out the survey before they leave the hospital, or return it to us by using the self-addressed envelope provided," Cowan said. The survey will also ask patients whether they read the emergency department brochure and whether it increased their understanding of how the department works. This information pamphlet was recendy produced as a way to explain the workings of the emergency department to patients. In particular, it reminds those waiting that the rule of "first come, first served" can't apply in an emergency department. Rather, each patient is assessed on arrival and those who most urgently need care get the fastest treatment.

Jane Baker Productions is proud to present this highly acclaimed classical trio. Sir Georg Solti, one of the 20th century's greatest conductors, turned impresario in order to advance The Bekova Sisters' career, by presenting them at London's Wig- more Hall. Hailed in the Soviet Union as child prodigies, Alfia (cello), Elcanora (piano), and Elvira (violin) were born in Karaganda, Kazakhstan, a small mining town situated a few miles from the Mongolian border in Soviet Cen tral Asia. Their illustrious teachers at the Moscow Conservatoire were Rostropovich (cello), Yakov Zak and Daniel Shafran (piano), and Oistrakh (violin). After winning countless awards and recognition throughout the Soviet Union, Alfia Bekova, while a participant of a cultural delegation held in London, U.K., defected due to the lack of artistic freedom allowed in her home country. It wasn't until 1989 with the arrival of Glasnost that she was joined by Eleanora and Elvira. Since then, The Bekova Sisters Trio has been described as a trio with an almost "telepathic sense of teamwork" and have been acknowledged as "outstanding" throughout Britain, Europe, and various countries of the former Busy calendar for Kawntlen music LANGLEY - Kwantlen Music presents a Faculty Chamber Music scries concert on Friday, January 18, at 8 pm in the Performance Hall of Kwanden University College Music Department, 20901 Langley Bypass.

LANGLEY - 'The Joy of Discovery", an exhibition by 15 artists from Artistic License, opens at Langley Centennial Museum and National Exhibition Center on January 9. "Sometimes I just feel the need to draw. I will see or hear something and want to put it down in my own 'words.' Next I find the best way to express what I'm trying (o say. My imagination is sometimes bigger than my skills," said Liscttc Isaak. Bonni Budlong, another Artistic License member, adds that: "Ordinary, often by-passed bils of life capture and feed my excitement: The growing rust on a discarded tincan; tlie twist of a rose petal; (lie play of light and dark on a rounded cheek; (he shadow which decorates my wall as the light passes tiirough the fronds of a fern or the diagonal thrust of a fault line as it pierces a rock mass. To try and capture that excitement on paper is often pure intense joy. Often it is also frustration, especially when there are failures. But even these never outweigh the joy of painting and I'm grateful to God for allowing this joy into my life." The show will contain artfonns as diverse as Rod Sawatsky's calligraphy, Terry Van Roon's Celtic prayer axe, a 21 foot wild horse mural by Judy Vanderveen, Dave Clark's pencil drawings or a video film clip by Jim Eldcrton.

OTTAWA - The vacancy rate for Canada's 26 metropolitan areas fell in October 1995, continuing a downward trend Uiat started in 1993, according to the results of the Rental Market Survey released by Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation. The October 1995 vacancy rate was 4.3 per cent, down from 4.6 per cent a year ago, and 4.8 per cent in October 1993. "The 1995 trend to lower vacancy rates in many centres is due to two main factors", said Greg Goy, manager of local market analysis. "Higher mortgage rates in early 1995 and uncertainty about jobs reduced the number of first time buyers moving out of rental units, while the supply of new rental units moderated". CMHC is forecasting a continuation in the lower vacancy rate trend. By October 1996, the vacancy rate is expected to be 4.1 per cent. "Excess vacancies in many markets will be slow to improve, largely because of lower household formation in Uie 18 to 39 age group," added Goy.
