Drysdale hopes to win nomination
Longtime Langley resident and business-man Dean Drysdale has announced his in-tention to run for the Conservative nomina-tion in the newly-constituted federal riding of Cloverdale – Langley City.
Drysdale, who served on Langley Town-ship council from 1996-2002 and also ran as a Canadian Alliance candidate in a Quebec riding in 2000, has a longtime interest in federal politics. He was active in the Young Progres-sive Conservatives in the 1970s and 1980s and worked in Ot-tawa during the Brian Mulroney era.
“I am running because I want to see Canada prosperous and secure. Our prosperity is best assured if we keep government small, taxes low, and our bud-gets balanced. Our security is best enhanced by a strong mili-tary and a justice system that puts victims fi rst. Only the Con-servative party is committed to these principles,” he said.
He grew up in Langley, attending D.W. Poppy and Langley Senior Secondary before obtaining his MBA in Paris and his PhD in London. In addition to teaching business at Kwantlen Polytechnic University in Surrey for 20 years, he has also served as an offi cer in the Canadian Army Reserves for 33 years.
He has been active in business for the last dozen years, fi nancing and developing sev-eral businesses.
Of his business background, Drysdale says, “I hope to be able to bring a business-like approach to fi nancial management in Ottawa. Most businesses and families try to get a dime to do a dollar’s work, and I would
like to see more of that from our government.”
A formal announcement of his candidacy took place on Saturday, Jan. 25 in the Sunrise Room at 5640 – 188 St. in Surrey, at 10 a.m. Th e meeting was open to all and memberships in the Con-servative Party were avail-able at the door.
Annual memberships are $15 and fi ve-year member-ships are $60.
Th e new riding associa-tion is being formed and a nomination meeting will
likely take place in about a year, with the federal election set for October, 2015.
Other candidates seeking the nomination are Paul Brar, Mike Garisto, Gurmant Gre-wal and Dave Hayer.
Drysdale is so far the only Langley candi-date in the race.

Hoopster hunts for Arctic-bound hockey gearBy Jennifer LangWith the dinner time temperature at -27 C and
falling on a mid-January night, and a blizzard in the forecast, the village of Arviat, Nunavut, isn’t exactly the fi rst place that springs to mind when you think of basketball or soccer.
But with all that snow and ice, it would seem like a natural fi t for Canada’s national game — hockey.
When Cloverdale sports ambassador Rick Gill returns to two villages in Nunavut next month, he hopes to bring along some spare hockey equipment
so kids there can play.Located high above the Arctic Circle, the com-
munities of Arviat and Baker Lake are worlds away from the well-equipped gyms, sports fi elds and hockey rinks of Surrey.
“We’re trying to outfi t about 20 kids right now,” said Gill, the Canadian director of Hoops 4 Hope, a charity that uses basketball and other sports to help impoverished youth in South Africa — where he once played pro basketball — and Inuit communi-ties in Canada’s Far North.
In Africa, the program trains local coaches, builds courts, and runs practices and tournaments for children in communities hit by poverty, crime and HIV-AIDS.
Gill and Hoops 4 Hope and Soccer 4 Hope pro-gram founder, New Yorker Mark Crandall, returnfi rst to Arviat on Feb. 15.
Recently, a hockey coach in one of the two com-munities reached out to Gill, asking if he can collectsome donated hockey equipment and bring it with

with him when he returns next month.
Th ere are no roads north from the mega malls and department stores of Winnipeg to Arviat, perched on the icy edge of Hud-son’s Bay, or Baker Lake, which is a remote community further inland. Supplies and visitors like Gill must be fl own in, usually in a prop plane from Winnipeg.
Gill, who grew up in North Delta, has been to Nunavut twice each year for the past two years with Hoops 4 Hope and Hoops4Soccer, running two-week camps for kids.
“Th e kids there really enjoy
sport,” says Gill, “and they’re enthusiastic. Th ey’re like kids anywhere in the world; they just want to play.”
Th is year, the charity is setting up sustainable community pro-grams that will continue on, and hopefully expand to other towns.
“Initially we were just going up to introduce the program and do two-week camps to see if people liked it,” he said, explaining the idea’s grown from there. Last January, he decided he wanted to create a sustainable program “so the program keeps running aft er we leave.”
Gill organized a Vancouver-area drive for sports equipment several years ago to help youth in
South Africa.If you can help track down
gently-used hockey equipment for kids aged fi ve to 14, or help with shipping expenses and stor-age until Feb. 15, please contact Gill by email at Th [email protected].
All kinds of equipment is needed, including skates, hel-mets, neck guards, gloves, and padding.
“I’m just going to take a couple of hockey bags [fi lled with dona-tions] along,” he said, adding Ex-cellent Ice in Surrey and Langley’s Sports Replay are also accepting donations but people should con-tact him fi rst before dropping off equipment at those stores.
Hockey gear for kidsFrom page one
SUBMITTEDThe NHL Players’ Association donated more than 20 sets of hockey equipment to the Arviat Minor Hockey Associa-tion in 2011. Since then, with the assistance of the NHLPA and local donations, AMHA has been able to outfi t more than 30 players between the ages of eight and 14. This has given young Arviatmiut the opportunity to participate in organized hockey and be part of a team.

Pubs are a good a place as any to teach kids how to behave
To the editor;Re: “A minor issue with new pub rules,” Jan. 9
Brenda Anderson’s opinion piece on children not belong-ing in the pubs she likes to go to is the very unwelcoming, unloving, anti-life sentiment that is discouraging our world from being open to the wonderful gift of children and con-tributing Canada’s all-time-low fertility rate of 1.5 children per woman (we need 2.1 if we’re going to replace ourselves).
Do we really want to join Japan, Italy, China, Spain, Ger-many and dozens of other countries contending with fertility rates well below replacement levels?
Yes, kids are disruptive and dis-tracting, but you were once one too, and the only way for any of us to learn how to behave like a grown-
up is to be off ered opportunities to practise it, not to be rel-egated to Chuck E. Cheese and Go Bananas, like she’s sug-gesting.
Pubs are just as good a place as any restaurant for fami-lies to practise good public behaviours. If she knew anything about children and families, she’d understand that children belong near the protective and teaching arms of their parents and should be welcome in all areas of society, not left at home with “a babysitter”.
I’d far prefer to live in a child-loving culture who welcomes even their youngest members at all their parties, restaurants, and special events (i.e. South America, the Philippines), not a barren one that views children as a necessary inconvenience.

Too devotedTo the editor;Too large a portion of Prime Min-
ister Stephen Harper’s supporters un-fortunately are his fellow theological devotees.
I fi nd it “unfortunate,” because that portion enables anti-science poli-cies to be passed and enforced by his theologically-inclined MPs, whose fundamental Scriptural beliefs are essentially a threat to healthy, life-sustaining Canadian eco-systems.
If Harper’s Biblical convictions are any indication, healthy and pristine Earthly eco-systems apparently are of no actual science based concern. For,
according to the Book of Revelation, Earth’s surface is to eventually, per-haps even imminently, be laid com-plete waste for a considerable period of time – if not permanently.
It might all be true in the end,whenever that would be in the natu-ral course of our planet and all of its life, but that’s certainly no excuse to insanely justify screwing the environ-ment in advance.
Mentality in translation, per-chance: Why the hell worry about anunhealthy state of the planet’s envi-ronment – especially when there areso many jobs to be had?
Frank G. Sterle, Jr.White Rock
The Other Door I suppose some things hold true no matter what generation you’re in. My
grandmother told my mother when she was young, that when a door closesanother will be there to open, if you look for it. My mom lived her life that way and I guess it rubbed off on me a little.
Th ere seems to be a lot of gloom in the news today and December bringsout the stress of forced happiness everywhere, and then January is the lonely month. It comes in so fast and there doesn’t seem to be anyone there to sharejoy with.
Enough of this feeling sorry for myself, I went for a walk and ran intosomeone who was doing the same thing, trying to get rid of the January blues. We smiled at one another and I started feeling better so I smiled at a few more people and before I knew it that other door had opened.
Opening that door is the beginning, you just have to be somewhere elseand smile and that door will open for you, too. Keep on smiling and every-one wants to know what you’re up to and they open a few doors of their own. Th e old saying is true: “Laugh and the world laughs with you, cry and youcry alone.”

By Jeff Nagel Th e days of cheap milk and cheese luring
cross-border shoppers into Washington state may soon end if the U.S. government ends its long-standing practice of deeply subsidizing American farms.
Th e U.S. Senate has so far blocked the re-newal of subsidies, although wrangling con-tinues toward a deal that would continue them at a reduced level.
B.C. Dairy Association CEO Dave Eto said American farm subsidies are so “astound-ing” the price of milk south of the border would more than double if they were elimi-nated altogether.
Eto isn’t expecting a complete end to sub-sidies, but thinks the debt-laden U.S. govern-ment will insist they be ratcheted down over time, pulling perhaps $4 billion out of the U.S. dairy industry over the next decade.
“I defi nitely think the prices will go up,” he said.
A n y drop in the Ca-n a d i a n d o l l a r a g a i n s t the U.S. g r e e n -b a c k w o u l d also make U.S. dairy products less at-t r a c t i v e to cross-border shoppers, and rising international demand may also help push up U.S. milk prices.
Most U.S. residents don’t enjoy the cheap prices B.C. residents get when they nip across the border to Blaine or Bellingham.
Eto said aggressive pricing by retailers
close to the bor-der to pull in Canadian shoppers m e a n s U.S. milk is sold be-low cost in those areas.
He said an Octo-ber price s u r v e y
showed average supermarket prices of a gal-lon of milk was $4.05 in San Francisco and $4.89 in Portland, but dropped to $2.79 in Seattle and $2.50 in Bellingham.
“For every dollar we spend in our commu-nities, it has a fi ve times rebound eff ect,” he said.
“We don’t give that enough credence.”Other observers doubt even more expen-
sive U.S. milk will do much to dent the fl ow of shoppers heading south.
“Milk is just a small sliver of the savings waiting down south,” said Jordan Bateman of the Canadian Taxpayers Federation.
“Cheaper gas, consumer goods and fl ights make it highly unlikely that this will curbcross-border shopping.”
Other free-market advocates say Ottawashould rip up the current supply manage-ment system in Canada and let milk prices fl oat rather than be propped up.
Th at would mean more price volatility but a better deal for consumers who now pay more than necessary, said Mark Milke, a se-nior fellow at the Fraser Institute.
He said New Zealand’s system is a muchbetter model and has resulted in a huge export-oriented dairy industry that now ac-counts for 40 per cent of world trade in dairy products.
Cross-border shoppers face test if U.S. farm subsidies end

Beware of prank callers
Th e RCMP is warning Lower Mainlanders of a male prank caller phoning into businesses claiming to be with the police or fi re de-
partment. Th e purpose of him calling is to “test” the fi re suppression
system. When the caller is on the line, he threatens to impose a fi ne
should the business not conduct the test. In test-
ing the s y s t e m , he re-quests the business to pull the fi re a l a r m , which in turn sets off the sprinkler s y s t e m c a u s i n g thousands of dollars in damages.
Police are urging people not to respond to anyone over the phone should they ask an individual to con-duct this test.
Th e RCMP is asking anyone to call the appropri-ate emergency number anytime they are witness to suspicious behaviour.

By Ursula Maxwell-Lewis Th e invitation read: “Book release party event for
Everything’s Coming Up Clover! by Dora Preston.” Vancouver writer Ruth Kozak was listed as the
event host at Renaissance Books Store in New West-minster.
Being a sucker for used-book stores, emerging authors, British humour, and sunny Sunday af-ternoon jaunts, I set off in search of an interview.
Upon arrival there were two surprises.
First: Dora Preston wasn’t coming. She passed away two years ago.
Second: Dora’s gone, but she sure isn’t forgotten.
Th anks to her daughter, Glenys Preston Blackburn, and Ann Westlake, a Lad-ner editor, Dora’s dream of publishing her book, Every-thing’s Coming Up Clover! is now a reality.
Th e storyline, her dedicated fans told me, re-minded them of Dora in disguise.
Clover Rayton, a feisty senior with a wicked sense of humour, decides to retaliate when her four chil-dren have her “incarcerated in an old folks home” Her tell-all diary will, she vows, pay them back when the world reads it. She’ll go, she decides, but not quietly.
Clover, who sounds remarkably like Dora, ac-cording to those who knew her, documented one
hilarious escapade aft er another. Honeystone Mansion was clearly in for a rude
awakening when dauntless Dora marched overtheir Vancouver doorstep.
“I won’t make it easy for them,” she vowed. And she didn’t.Th anks to Dora Preston’s irrepressible Yorkshire
wit, wisdom, and writing talent, Clover could easily star in a British sitcom, or onstage with the Vancou-
ver Arts Club. In between readings and visitors singing Dora’s
praises to me, Kozak tells me she fi rst met Dorain 1989
“When I stepped into the washroom a womancame in singing in a most lovely voice,” she recalls.“I wondered who this happy person was. WhenI went into the West End Writer’s meeting, thereshe was. It was Dora!”
For ten years Dora, a popular care aide and ad-vocate for seniors, craft ed cantankerous Clover’sescapades based on observations, experiences andan irrepressible sense of fun.
Eventually, when diagnosed with terminal can-cer, Dora confessed to her daughter that she re-
gretted that her manuscript remained unpublished.Assisted by Writer’s Cramp Editing Consultants,
Glynis proudly made it happen. In January, Ann Westlake selected it as winner
of the Fourth Annual Editor’s Pick Writing Contest Award.
In Them Days, a new book written by Ontario se-nior Isobel Warren, also arrived this month.
For those who recall tales of Canadian farm life, I’d recommend it.

A veteran journalist, creative writing teacher, and co-founder of the Travel Media Association of Canada, Isobel injured her leg last summer.
Th e subsequent forced-inactivity generated time to allow her to craft the novel.
Set in a post-First World War rural communi-ty, Isobel chose Julianna Chandler, a city doctor’s daughter, as the linchpin for her well-craft ed tale of the era’s mindsets, morals and misunderstandings.
Dramatic and insightful, the story highlights what - at the time - were provocative views on women’s roles, rights, medicine and politics.
Th e reader is expertly lured into the lives of this diverse community.
Pathos, drama, historical detail, and the oc-casional hint of humour, brings these characters alive.
Chances are, some will be familiar from your own family sagas.
I fi nished it thinking it could morph into a good sequel. Who knows? Perhaps. But, hopefully minus broken bones.

Continued from Page 10
focus onwellness
The fi rst couple of months of the year is the time to execute our new year resolutions, to refresh our bodies and elevate our vitality, yet one of the most common complaints that we hear from our clients at this time of the
year is “low energy levels”. Of course, many of them have medical reasons for this. Many more, however, simply cannot garner enough energy to accomplish their daily chores. We have a few tips to rectify this.
EXERCISE: One needs to make time for regular exercise. Exercise stimulates the mitochondria of your body’s cells to burn fuel to generate energy. Exercise also augments the production of serotonin and endorphin for mood and alertness. Some of our clients say, “I’m too tired to do any exercise.” Well, there are ways to help break the vicious cycle. Taking “Arnicare Sport” or our own “Sport Tablets” can make unaccustomed exercise less painful, increase endurance, and speed recovery. “Endura” is great during exercise as well as in recovery, while just a few sips of “Lucozade” can provide instant energy.
EAT WISELY: Never eat more than what you need. Large meals induce outpouring of insulin and reactive hypoglycemia. Most should eat less meat and more veggies. Foods from plant sources not only have less harmful fats, but also have more fi bre and minerals. You do need a bit of meat, though, since certain vitamins (eg. Vit.B-12) are only
available from animal sources. Moderation is key. Animal fats should be avoided all together.
MANAGE STRESS: Share your troubles and achievements with people around you. Forgive people who have done you wrong. Accept your own shortcomings and those of people around you. Connect more with people who make you happy and excited. Make time for recreation. Pick-up a hobby, something that will segregate your mind from your daily troubles. Do not take on responsibilities that you cannot manage. Learn when and what to give up. “Sleep Tonight” and ”Nervoheel” can be of great benefi t in reducing stress and anxiety.
MANAGE YOUR TIME: Prioritize and organize your chores. Give up those that are less important, keeping in mind that you cannot win them all. Delegate as much as possible; share duties with your family and friends. Avoid putting off assignments or other forms of procrastination. Do not allow interruptions to occur. Sometimes, multitasking will actually slow you down; do things one at a time. Do not let TV, the internet, or social media consume your life; set time for it and stick to it. “Bach Flower Remedies” and other homeopathics could help with focus and obsessiveness.
AVOID TOXINS: Do not smoke. We feel so strongly about this that we have not sold cigarettes at Cloverdale Pharmasave since 1990, and are an active participant in the BC Government’s subsidized smoking cessation program. Do not have more than 2 alcoholic drinks a day. Cut down on caffeine (coffee, tea, colas). Note that even green tea contains caffeine. Chamomile, ginger, cranberry teas
are better choices. If you have been relying on caffeine or other stimulant drugs for energy, you should replace them with natural substitutes (see #6 below).
SUPPLEMENT YOUR DIET: If you consistently eat a healthy and balanced diet, you do not need a multi-vitamin supplement. Caffeine or ephedrine can be replaced with natural stimulants like Alfalfa Tonic and Ginseng Royal Jelly. Co-Q10, “Floradix”, “Lucozade”, “Brand’s Essence of Chicken” may increase energy naturally. “Lucozade” is a carbonated glucose drink that provides instant energy. “Brand’s Essence of Chicken” is an amino acid drink made from hydrolysed chicken meat.
STAY YOUNG AT HEART: Be naughty and playful. Don’t get too serious. Be interested in new things around you. Have confi dence. Be proactive. Psych yourself up. Never say, “I’m too old for this.” Energy can be psychologically produced or voided. Keep your mind and body busy.
Is there a shortcut to vibrant life? No. You need all seven elements for success It does not matter where you start; just aim at accomplishing all seven things in the end. Do it for faith, which does not have to be a religion. It can be someone you love, somebody you trust, or even yourself. Make a promise, sign a contract. Set a plan, believe in it, then live it.

12 The Cloverdale Reporter Thursday, January 30, 2014
Cats are commonly believed to be low maintenance, independent pets. Provide them with food, water, a litter box and perhaps a scratching post or two, and they will amuse themselves, right?
While they may not need long walks in the park, cats require interaction and stimulation – just like dogs do – to stay mentally and physically healthy. The indoor environment can be a monotonous one. Cats who are bored or frustrated may display stress-related behaviours such as re-directed aggression or over-grooming. The indoor lifestyle can be sedentary as well; inactive cats may be at risk of obesity, diabetes, arthritis and
other associated medical problems. Setting aside daily time for play is an important means of engaging your cat’s mind and body.
Compared to dogs,
domestication has changed cats relatively little. Like their wild relatives, they have evolved as predators to stalk, chase, pounce on and bite their prey. Playing “keep-away” games with
your cat provides rewarding outlets for this instinctualhunting behaviour. Move a wand toy through the air to mimic fl ying prey swooping down or along the fl oor to simulate ground
prey scurrying away. Be sure to allow your cat to catch the toy from time to time; a successful “hunt” will help keep her interested in the game. Similarly, tossing around a small toy
such as a ball or fake mouse can trigger her predatory instincts.
For additional stimulation, you can involve food in daily playtime too. Food-dispensing toys, such as balls that drop kibble as they roll, are eff ective in instigating play. Some even allow you to modify
the level of diffi culty so you can present your cat with varying mental and physical challenges.
Playing with your cat will make her day more
interesting and, thus, improve her well-being. Ultimately, the daily interaction may also strengthen the bond your share with your feline friend.

Surrey Mountie-turned-author takes readers on a journey behind the badge
By Evan SealAt a well-kept home on
a quiet tree-lined street in Newton, Wayne Ryan remembers seeing the bunches of balloons hang-ing inside the house, which was decorated with various ribbons and signs celebrat-ing the birthday of a six-year-old girl.
Th ere was an upright vacuum cleaner in the kitchen and the body of a young mother was laying on the fl oor.
As he made his way to the second fl oor of the house, Ryan followed a small trail of blood that ended at a closed bedroom door.
Opening the door, he remembers seeing a young girl wearing a beautiful party dress lying face up in the middle of her room.
She had been stabbed multiple times – so hard the knife handle had left an imprint in her chest.
Th e images from that day are indelibly imprint-ed in Ryan’s mind, making him unable to attend a birthday party to this day without reliving the vi-sions.
Ryan is a 19-year veteran of the Surrey RCMP and yet the memories from that day have never faded.
Following the arrest of the murderer – a family friend of the victims’ – Ryan’s job was to pick him up in Coquitlam and bring him to Surrey for a full interview.
“I had many years as a hostage negotiator and in-terviewer, but I lost it that day. I had to use every ounce of energy to leave the interview room” aft er the suspect showed no remorse, Ryan said.
“I could have probably executed him and gone for dinner that night feeling no remorse myself. Th at was a failure on my part. Th at really aff ected me. You learn you’re human.”
Aft er having a small article published in the RCMP Veterans’ Association newsletter about life as a police offi cer, Ryan decided he wanted to tell some of the real life stories about working in law enforcement and the emotional toll it oft en takes on members and their families.
Souls Behind the Badge is an emotional and oft en raw account of life wearing the uniform of Canada’s national police force.
“I wanted to put a human face to the uniform,” Ryan said, “to write about the human aspect of po-licing and the eff ect some of the things have on of-fi cers.”
Police offi cers are expected to guard their feelings on the job, and many fi nd the transition between work and home life quite diffi cult.
Referring to actual cases, Ryan guides the reader through many of his own experiences as well as those of his colleagues.
“In the book I try to talk about the emotional, professional and personal challenges of policing and I try to use real-life police stories to support that,” he said.
Dispelling the Hollywood view of policing was challenging.
“Th e public has this perception of not only what they think the police are like, but what they want them to be,” said Ryan, adding the scrutiny can be extreme.
“I always tell people, ‘everything you say and do as a police offi cer, expect it to be on the six o’clock news’.”
Keeping the peace has always been a priority for Ryan, “but some laws just have to be (enforced),” he said.
Maintaining an even keel is paramount.In one shift an offi cer may fi nd himself having to
inform the parents of a 17-year-old girl that their daughter has just been killed by a drunk driver, and then a few hours later, he is arresting an impaired driver at the roadside.
Emotions can’t take over, Ryan said.“I’ll oft en look back at some of my own failures
and say I didn’t handle that the best way.”
Ryan said all RCMP offi cers are going to have bad days.
“It’s just the law of averages. But does that mean the whole system is broken? No.”
One of the goals of writing his book was to inform those thinking about a career in policing about the realities of the profes-sion and to help families understand what their loved ones deal with.
“It’s a great career if you go into it with the right attitude,” Ryan said.
“You need the physical capabilities of a young person with the wisdom of a se-nior.”
