A diverse mix of age and experiencewill govern Maple Ridge for the nextnext four years.by Christopher [email protected]

Two old, two new, and two returning;that’s the makeup of Maple Ridge’s newCity council.

And it’s going to be an “interesting”four years.

Former mayor Gordon Robson andcouncillor Craig Speirs are returningafter losing their seats in 2008 and 2011,respectively.

The two often held polarizing views,resulting in heated discussions, and thathistory may explain the “I’m watchingyou” gesture Robson gave Speirs, after thefinal voter count came in at City hall onSaturday night.

“I think voters have a sense of humor,”Speirs said with a laugh, adding he andRobson were like the “odd couple” whenthey last served on council together.

“He and I are very different but we arealso friends. We actually agree more thanwe disagree.”

Addressing urban sprawl, affordablehousing, and making Maple Ridge the

centre for outdoor and agricultural tourismin the Lower Mainland, are among manythings Speirs hopes to tackle in the nextfour years.

Robson said there were a lot of thingshe “couldn’t get done last time,” whichis why he is returning to municipal pol-itics, citing improving transit, dealing withhomelessness and attracting industry toMaple Ridge as some issues he wants toaddressed.

While his last position was mayor untiloutgoing mayor Ernie Daykin defeatedhim in 2008, he is looking forward to theview from a councillor seat.

“Councillors have much more freedomto express their views,” Robson said. “Amayor has to express the views of thewhole council.”

Younger set join the mixTwo newcomers elected into office,

Tyler Shymkiw and Kiersten Duncan, willbe the youngest on council and they are

both students.Shymkiw, 28, works in film industry,

but is also a PhD candidate at SimonFraser University, and has completeddegrees in political science.

Duncan, 21, works as a lifeguard and iscurrently studying urban development andenvironmental science at the University ofthe Fraser Valley.

Duncan ran for council unsuccessfully in2011 when she was 18. She called her wina “dream come true.”

“It’s going to be a little awkward, sit-ting in class and going around the tableexplaining, ‘what I do,’” Duncan said.

“Most of my friends are working min-imum wage jobs or at the beginning oftheir careers and now, I’m a City council-lor.”

Duncan ran on a platform of improvedinfrastructure and services to supportneighbourhoods and reduce urban sprawl,expanding eco-tourism, development indowntown, and increased safety around

outdoor swimming areas.The newly elected council is proof that

Maple Ridge want change, Shymkiw said,who ran on a platform that included put-ting a moratorium on new pay-day loanbusinesses and improving the economy inMaple Ridge.

He is optimistic this new council willmove forward and away from past prob-lems.

“I think it’s going to be a much morecollaborative council,” Shymkiw said.“I think we will be able to leave someof those old divisions behind and cometogether to get some stuff done.”

Only one incumbent seeking re-electionis not returning. Al Hogarth placed 10th interms of votes, out of the roster of 26 run-ning for council. The former Maple Ridgemayor (1999 to 2002), took the defeat instride.

“I’m looking forward to a new chapterin my life,” Hogarth said, adding there isnothing he would change in his re-electioncampaign.

“I’m hopeful the community will con-tinue moving forward in a responsible andbalanced way,” said the realtor.

Corisa Bell and Bob Masse are the twoincumbent councillors, re-elected for asecond consecutive term.

Maple Ridge’s new council will besworn in on Dec. 1.

A longtime Garibaldi Art Clubmember will be showingher work at the group’s fallshow this weekend.by Troy [email protected]

Lyn Thomas has been a fixturein Maple Ridge’s arts communityfor close to three decades, andshe continues to generate newartwork.

Thomas’s art, along with thatof other members from theGaribaldi Art Club, will be show-cased this weekend (Nov. 21-23)during the club’s Fall Show &Sale at Fraserview Hall, 22610116th Ave.

Thomas’s affinity for art pre-dates her move to Maple Ridge27 years ago.

“Thirty-eight years, we’ll say,”Thomas estimated, regardingwhen she started her hobby/pas-sion.

Her method has alteredthrough the years.

She had been painting formany years in watercolours andchanged mediums.

Taking a drawing class with afriend heralded a change.

The drawings were charcoaland she was told using pastelwould be similar. Not reallywanting to get her hands messy,Thomas resisted change until shedecided to take a pastel class.

From that time, she becameinterested in this medium whichwas completely new to her.

Her very first pastel withoutany instruction was acceptedinto a juried show at the gallery.That provided thenecessary encour-agement for herto continue withpastels.

Thomas hasbeen producingmore artworkeach year sinceturning to pastels.

Although shecredits FaridaCoates andRoberta Combswith significant assistance, shesays she is now finding a way ofdoing things herself.

“I’ve been painting watercol-ours the longest, and I neverthought I would change fromwatercolours, but these two are

pastels,” Thomas said, pointingto a pair of pieces she broughtinto the TIMES office for a photo.

For Thomas, artistic inspirationcan sometimes arrive in quickbursts. In the spring, the clubhosted a juried show with thesubject being Memorial PeacePark.

“For some reason I got on aroll, and I guess I was lookingfor different things in the parkto paint and to interpret, andI actually painted, I think, the

most that anyonehad done,” shesaid.

She painted sixpieces from thatshow.

For the upcom-ing event,Thomas plansto submit threepieces of her art-work.

Most ofThomas’s arttends to gravitate

towards buildings and, a sub-ject that’s equally unique andnostalgic – clotheslines. A ser-ies of clothesline paintings hasoccupied Thomas for many yearsand she is now doing them in

pastels. From the dreamy, softshades of watercolours, she nowlikes using the vibrant coloursmore associated with pastels.European locations with clothes-lines hanging over the streetshave provided an attractive focusfor her.

“Somehow I like buildings andyet I’m not a technical person asfar as [architecture],” Thomassaid. “I did a few in watercol-ours of clotheslines and thatseems to be something that I liketo do and people like to do.”

So what is it about clotheslinesthat fascinate her?

“Especially in watercolour,they’re really easy and niceto do, and people like them,”Thomas said.

Art has been a big part ofThomas’s life since she first putdown stakes in Maple Ridge.

She has been president of theGaribaldi Art Club twice, and ranArt in the Park for 13 years.

She originally started this artshow in her two-acre garden inMaple Ridge and since its firstyear, it has became very popularwith artists and art collectorsin the local community andbeyond.

Thomas continues to operate

her home-based picture framingbusiness, Lynton Studio, that shehas been running for 25 years.

While she has sold some ofher artwork in past, it isn’t alucrative side business.

“Oh gosh no!” Thomas replied,when asked if she’s made a goodliving from her artwork.

“It’s strictly, you have to do itbecause you love to do it,” shesaid.

Thomas series “Flying SaucerSquash” was a little whimsi-cal – “Ready for Take Off”;“Autopsy”; and “Landed” werethree of the titles, and somethingcompletely new for her to paint.

She won second place for“Landed” in the Garibaldi ArtClub Juried Spring show in 2013.Thomas also won second placefor “Catching the Wave” in2014 which was a painting atnight of the beautiful colouredlights in front of the ACT. Allof these paintings were done inpastels.

This weekend’s show runsFriday, Nov. 21 from 7-9 p.m.,as well as Saturday, Nov. 22 andSunday, Nov. 23 from 10 a.m. to4 p.m. both days.

Two new faces are set to joinveteran councillors as the Cityprepares for a new term.by Eric [email protected]

He may be happy to be taking a seaton council after a “long and exhaustingcampaign,” but for newly elected PittMeadows City councillor Mike Stark, now“the real work begins in earnest.”

Stark is one of two new councillorswho will take their place alongsidereturning councillors David Murray, TracyMiyashita, Janis Elkerton, and Bruce Bellfollowing the swearing in on Dec. 2.

Also joining the group is fellow councilfreshman Bill Dingwall.

“I am thrilled and hon-oured to have been electedto City council,” Dingwallsaid. “It is a new chapterfor me and my family thatwill include both challengesand opportunities.”

The group will be led bynew mayor John Becker,who isn’t wasting any timesettling into his new role.

Monday morning may have been a“regular work day at the office” for thePitt Meadows lawyer, but he said theday also included other new tasks suchas scheduling appointments with PittMeadows CAO Kim Grout, as well asMaple Ridge’s mayor-elect Nicole Read.

Becker will be “establishing a regularschedule at City hall to mesh with thelaw office,” he said.

The pair of newbies are also anxious to

get things going.“The residents of Pitt Meadows have

elected me to listen to their concerns,debate the issues that matter to them,and then vote my conscience in their bestinterests,” Stark said. “I plan to do justthat.”

Council is facing some “really importantand complex” issues around tax divers-ification, traffic congestion, economicdevelopment and tourism, to name afew,” said Dingwall. “I hope that coun-cil can validate a strategic vision for ourcommunity that will embrace... who weare.”

Returning councillor David Murrraysaid he was humbled and honoured tobe re-elected a second time around. AndJanis Elkerton was grateful to be return-ing: “Thank you for the re-election.”

Their colleague, BruceBell echoed the sentiments.

“Thank you to those whosupported me,” Bell said.

“To those who didn’t, Iwill work hard and do mybest to earn your supportthese next four years.”

Long-time City council-lor Gwen O’ Connell didn’tmake the cut, but isn’t har-

bouring any ill feelings about the results.“I was bit sad at first, but I’m doing

really good,” she stressed.O’Connell also works full-time at the

Wesbrooke, and she said she’s actually“excited” to have a bit more time to focuson new projects at the seniors facility.

“I wish everybody on council the best,”she said. “John will be a good mayor.”

O’Connell added that it will also be an“interesting” four years, and that she’ll“be watching council, for sure.”

The annual legioncampaign saw asignificant rise indonations this year.by Eric [email protected]

Eighteen million plasticred poppies were producedin Canada this year to helpmark Remembrance Day,and help legions nation-wide raise funds for theirorganizations.

And the supply almostran out.

For local Royal CanadianLegion Branch 88 mem-ber Jim MacDonald, theresponse to this year’scampaign can be tracedback to the deaths of thetwo Canadian service-men killed in Quebec andOntario last month.

The unprovoked attackson home soil brought thereality of conflict close tohome for many, he said.

In addition, saidMacDonald,“there seemsto be an ongoing andbuilding awareness of vet-erans, veteran’s rights, andwhat they’ve done.”

As of the TIMES pressdeadline, more than$78,000 had already beenreceived by the local

legion as a result of thisyear’s campaign.

This is a significantincrease over last year,when sales totalled around$72,000.

Awareness of the dayisn’t going to die down,said MacDonald of thefuture. In fact, quite theopposite.

“What was great to seethis year was how manyteenagers and youngpeople came and gave oftheir own accord, withoutbeing coaxed to by mom

or dad or something,” herelated.

“It seems to be the thingto do now, whereas in thepast, it was mostly theolder crowd that picked upa poppy, or attended theRemembrance Day cere-monies.”

MacDonald himself saidhe attended RemembranceDay in Maple Ridge, andestimated that about 60per cent of the crowd wasof the younger generation.

It’s good to see that kindof response, he added.

Symbolic of remembrance

Poppies pay off for vetsRoyalCanadianLegionBranch 88– like mostacross thecountry– ran out ofpoppies thisyear. Butaccording toorganizers,theymanagedto scroungeenough toget throughthe localpoppycampaign.

Tribute

November

28th

If you’re reading this on deadtrees, there’s a good chance youwere born sometime between1930 and 1980. If you were, youalso remember that, during thesecond half of the 20th century,there was a standard set of stuffthat pretty much every middle-class household possessed. Thealways-present pieces of technol-ogy were: a stove and oven, arefrigerator, a washer and dryer,a television, and a phone. In yourgarage was an internal combus-tion car. Maybe you had a rotary phone or one ofthose fancy keypad numbers, maybe your TV wasblack-and-white or colour, but the basics werethe same.

Other technology came creeping in starting the1970s – microwave ovens, VCRs, game consoles,and so forth – but they were optional. Plentyof homes still don’t have much more than aDVD player on top of the ISO Standard HomeTechnology Package.

Compared to the late 20th century, the early20th century was a time of mad upheaval.Iceboxes turned into crude refrigerators. Phoneschanged their shape and user interface radically.Washboards and buckets started to vanish. Carswent from rich man’s toy to suburban necessity.

So try this – pick up a book, especially achildren’s book with a domestic setting, writtensometime between the late 1950s and the early1990s. Don’t look at the cover or the publicationdate. Try to figure out what year it was writtenby paying attention to the technology.

It’s pretty hard. Does the TV have a remote, orknobs? Are the car’s tires whitewalls? How muchcable television is available?

That standardized suite of stuff lasted for, intechnological terms, a really long time, about 40years.

Now pick up a book written sometime betweenabout 1990 and the present. You can probablyguess the year it was written to within one or

two. Is the computer a 486? Isthe game system an Super NESor XBox 360? Does anyone own aPrius? Flip-phone or smart phone?MySpace or Twitter?

Change in the stuff we use ona daily basis is getting faster, andwe might be heading towards abig shakeup in the kinds of thingswe think of as “standard” for ourhomes.

Are we going to have a lot ofdomestic robots to do the house-work? The Roomba is 12 years

old now, but it became popular without everbecoming truly mainstream. Smarter, more ver-satile robots are being invented all the time, andlike most new technologies, they’re coming to usmainly via military surplus and toy companies.

You can also pick up a 3D printer for a fewhundred to a few thousand dollars. They’reexpensive hobbies for most people, used tomake anything from action figures to custompicture frames. If the price drops enough, maybethey’ll be handy to have around for printing newclothes, dishes, or furniture?

How about self-driving cars? That seems prettyplausible, if Google can figure out how to get thedarned things to drive in snow. Otherwise, theirmain market will be Florida and Arizona, not somuch Winnipeg.

Virtual reality? It seemed like a pipe dream foryears, but now there’s the Oculus Rift, fully fund-ed and worth billions, apparently.

The most likely answer is “something no onecan foresee.” No one in the 1960s saw videogames coming, no one in the 1970s saw mobilephones becoming ubiquitous, no one in the 1980srealized that the internet would become a near-essential utility.

I’d love to know what’s coming next, but whatI really want to know is, how long will everythingbe in flux? Will there ever be a generations-longperiod in which we get some stability, or is thatas dead and buried as rotary-dial phones?

Our View

TransLink ishard to like

On Tuesday, TransLink announced itwill adopt a host of recommendationsabout how to fix a buggy SkyTrain sys-tem that trapped hundreds of passen-gers last summer. Twice. In less than aweek.

Ask about almost any other level ofgovernment or agency in B.C., fromyour local council to the provincialParliament to the Agricultural LandCommission, and you’ll find somepeople who hate them, some who thinkthey’re doing okay.

It’s hard to find anyone with some-thing nice to say about TransLink. Andyet, sometime next year, we’ll be askedto vote in a referendum on more moneyfor the transit agency.

TransLink has been chronically shortof funds for years. Its job is not only torun transit service, but to maintain agreat many major roads. It has had todo this with several different unwieldygovernance structures and little sup-port from the province, which has neverbeen interested in taking any blame forTransLink’s failures, only credit for itssuccesses.

As development and dens-ity ramped up around the edges ofMetro Vancouver, as communities likeCoquitlam, Pitt Meadows, and MapleRidge began growing and demandingbetter – or any – bus service, TransLinkcompletely dropped the ball. Every newroute was years too late and was quick-ly swamped by pent-up demand.

TransLink now has an ambitiousplan. More buses. More service. It willcost money, and that spending has to beapproved by voters.

Specifically, by voters who havecome to hold TransLink in contempt.It’s one thing to be asked to supportsomething you mostly like, but beingasked to pony up more money forTransLink…

Our prediction is that the referendumisn’t going to be much fun.

Dear Editor,When we went to the polls a few days

ago, we at least had the right to vote for ourown candidates.

Not so for one municipality inB.C.: Jumbo Mountain Resorts.

In 2012, the B.C. governmentamended the Local GovernmentAct to enable a corporation tocreate a municipality without resi-dents or infrastructure, and withan appointed mayor and council.

The yet-to-be-built ski resort inthe beautiful Purcell mountains ofthe Kootenays has an appointed mayor andcouncil to make possible an artificial resortwith hotels and condos and cafes and res-taurants on Crown Land for a corporation

wanting to make money.The project has been in the making for

more than 20 years. Two years ago, themayor and council received $260,000 in

start-up money for its non-exist-ing community, and is now askingfor a further million dollars for thenext five years – without any elec-tions or people or community.

There is no accountability to vot-ers, because there are no voters!

Only in some banana republic,you say? No. Here in B.C.!

How far does the absurd sup-port of corporations go by our government,when so many communities are in direneed of extra funds?

Dear Editor,Paul Gregory [Canada one

of dirtiest countries, Oct.14 Letters, TIMES] claims aproblem with my numbers

[Benefits outweigh emis-sions, Oct. 7 Letters, TIMES].

He notes Canada emits16.0 and the USA 16.4 tonsof CO2 per capita. Canada

has one tenth the popula-tion of the USA, one tenththe cars, and so on.

Then he shows China at7.5 tons per capita – thecountry with the biggestpopulation in the world.The air is so thick with pol-lution, factories are forcedto shut down because ofhealth concerns, and peoplewear face masks.

Canada is in a very goodposition globally, respon-sible for 1.39 per cent ofworld CO2 totals.

Any major initiative tofurther reduce our CO2emissions will result in amajor impact to Canada’seconomy, and the resultingeffort would amount to adrop in the ocean.

I am thankful our primeminister is an economist,not a lawyer.

• The TIMES reported on the major ‘upset’in Maple Ridge, with a Silver Valley mom, apolitical neophyte, unseating incumbent ErnieDaykin for the mayor’s seat. Reader responsewas varied and somewhat unexpected...

“Why is the heading for this article “major upset”?”– Gillian Meyer

“Silver Valley Mom? Yes, she is a fabulous mom. But I can’thold it in! When Ernie Daykin was elected was he called a“Maple Ridge Dad”? I shake my head. Anyway... I am thrilledfor the citizens of Maple Ridge. Nicole Read will lead us tosuccess. Congrats!” – Billie Fletcher-Seneviratne

“Don’t see how they can say major upset when the majorityof voters chose the newcomer!!! If the majority was opposedto this, it would have reflected at the voting booths...”

– Kassandra Antone Kreutzer

“How is this a Major Upset? I think this is wonderful news!”– Janessa Munz

“I had the same reaction. What’s next - a comment on herhair style? Isn’t it time to get past this stuff?” – Val Patenaude

“Major upset? Really? Obviously not if you’ve been followingthe campaigns.” – Jesse Sidhu

“Here’s one. If you need things done properly, hire a woman !Congrats Nicole!” – Jennifer Howe

“Look at that group of old farts! Lol dallas buyers club see ya!And welcome young fresh female perspective.” – J.C. Gib

“I think there is way too much read into the headline. I wouldalso consider it an upset... she’s new to the scene, no onewould comment on that if she was a man. I don’t care if themayor is male or female... just do a good job representing thepeople. Good for her.” – Kelly Marshall Keno

“Congratulations all around. Voting turnout went well andchange is a coming. Old boys club got shown the door”

– Chris Broughton

Traffic safety

Brush up on intersection rulesDear Editor,

Some drivers need a refresher on intersection rules. Oncethe light has turned green and you have rolled forward overthe solid stop line, you are in the intersection and have theright of way, especially turning left on a green light.

Please, don’t try and back up behind the stop line if thelight turns amber, and don’t panic if the light turns red.Wait for those last-second red-light runners and make yourturn, safely. You have the right of way.

Odd Thoughts

Reality twistDear Editor,

Zombies are too silly toworry about because theyare not real [Laws scarierthan zombies, Oct. 28 OddThoughts, TIMES].

ISIS/ISIL is real, and notmentally ill. They have atwisted religious ideologythat they plan to impose onthe world.

Terrorism does not“kill people and destroyfamilies,” people with anagenda do. Terrorists withthis twisted view of Islammurder more Muslims thanany other group since Islambegan. Ask the Kurds.

America and Canada sendmassive aid to these coun-tries, but continue to bevilified even by their owncitizens.

The first directive for theleader of a democratic coun-try is the protection of itscitizens.

Now in its fifth year,the bi-annual eventallows parents to savemoney by recyclingchildren’s clothes.

by Christopher [email protected]

Enjoy snacks while meet-ing neighbours and getsome free children’s cloth-ing too, during the HIVENeighbourhood Centre’sfreecycle at Eric LangtonElementary on Saturday.

The biannual event, nowin its fifth year, allowsfamilies to fill a bag ofclean, gently used clothing,donated by families whosechildren may have out-grown or stopped wearing.Coffee, snacks, and hotdogs are being providedby Kiwanis, Starbucks,Envision Financial.Entertainment will be pro-vided by the Fraser ValleyRegional Library’s Live andon tour.

“This is open to thewhole community, whetheror not they donated,”said organizer Elaine

Yamamoto. “It’s about thecommunity coming togeth-er and pooling resources.”

To level the field andprevent hoarding, one bagis given to families pick-ing up clothes. They areallowed to take as muchas they can, until the bagis full. However, there is alimit of one coat each.

On Monday, families areinvited to come back andget more clothing, if anyare left. What’s leftoverafter that is donated.

On average, about 300

bags of clothing is distrib-uted at each freecycle.

Yamamoto knows of oneincident where a motherheld up a dress and com-mented that she donated it“a few freecycles ago.”

“It’s kinda neat thatway,” Yamamoto added.“After the child had wornit and enjoyed it, it cameback again.”

The event will be heldin the gymnasium of EricLangton Elementary, at12138 Edge St., from 11a.m. to 2 p.m.

An annual donation drive coordinated by realtorsfrom across the Lower Mainland kicked off thisweek in Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows.by Eric [email protected]

The value of a warm blanket or cozy jacket on a coldnight is something that many people take for granted.

But for many others, it’s a comforting luxury they sim-ply don’t have.

And it’s why – for the past 20 years – realtors fromSquamish to Chilliwack and all points in between, includ-ing Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows, have participated inthe Realtors Care Blanket Drive.

During the campaign, which kicked off Monday, Nov.17, and will continue until until Nov. 24, realtors acrossthe region will work with their clients to coordinate dona-tions of blankets, sleeping bags, warm winter clothing, as

well as new socks and under-wear for those most in need,said Jewel Yourchek, a realtorwith Macdonald Realty whohas organized the local drivefor the past six years.

“I think it encompassesmore than just the homeless,”Yourchek said.

“We’re bringing in blanketsand warm clothing ourselves, and our clients are too,”she explained.

“We also have a great connection with the other officesin town; realtors work and play in the communities inwhich they work.”

As such, she explained, all donations stay local.“Whatever’s raised in Surrey stays in Surrey, for

example,” Yourchek elaborated. “Whatever’s raised inMaple Ridge, stays in Maple Ridge. It’s all just given topeople who need it.”

In her years in charge of the operation, Yourchek saidshe has seen donations double every year.

“Except for last year,” she noted. “For one reason oranother, donations dropped off.”

She cited the movement of the drive from December toNovember last year as one possible reason for the declinein donations, but said the change of dates was made withstrategy in mind.

“They moved it to the middle of this month, partlybecause they wanted to get the donations out earlier,before the weather really got cold,” she explained.

Response from Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows isalways generous though. And, as the campaign marksits 20th anniversary, Yourchek hopes this year will be nodifferent.

“For two decades, this program has helped the home-less and working poor living in every community withinthe Lower Mainland,” said Ray Harris, president of theReal Estate Board Of Greater Vancouver. “In a perfectworld, the need for a program like this wouldn’t exist,but we know there are many of our fellow residents whoneed our support.”

Details on the campaign are at: www.blanketdrive.ca.

Maple Ridge ConcertBand is getting set forits annual show.by Eric [email protected]

From tunes about thecivil war, to traditionalChristmas carols, theupcoming Maple RidgeConcert Band’s (MRCB)winter show will run thegauntlet of tune topicswhen the group performsat The ACT on Tuesday.

The common thread,explained MRCB’s GaleYip, is that all the songsrevolve around the subjectof colour.

The theme is the brain-child of concert coordinatorLaurie Dumas, who is also

the wife of the band’s con-ductor Ed.

“Every song we playwill be colour-related,”explained Yip.

“We’re playing thingslike White Christmas aswell as songs such as TheBlue and Grey, which isabout the civil war.”

The group performs twomain concerts a year – onein the spring and one inthe winter – and Yip saidthe shows are always fun.

MRCB has increased itsmembership as of late, andYip said the performancegroup now totals about 50members.

In addition, a beginnerand intermediate grouphas also formed, which Yipexplained allows for thosewith any level of musicalability to get involved with

the concert band.And the show itself will

include a performancefrom the intermediate per-formers.

“Our goal is to justencourage all levels ofmusic, and share in theenjoyment of musical per-formance,” Yip said.

It’s not uncommon for“family pods” to be a partof MRCB, she noted.

“Our band is filled withfamily pods: brother andsister, parent and child,husband and wife.”

The youngest member ofthe group is 14 years old,and the oldest is “some-where in the 80s.”

Tickets to the Nov.25show are available at TheACT. Showtime is 7:30p.m. More info at www.theactmapleridge.org.

my plans,” Smith said, who lives inVancouver.

“I will be engaging with neighbours andthe people in Maple Ridge to create art-work for the next three years.”

Robi’s artwork has been exhibitedthroughout Canada and the United States.She has been commissioned to cre-ate artwork by VanCity Credit Union,Earthwatch Institute, amongst others.

FOR LESS!

Thanks Bruce,I have a young family, a husband and three kidsand my life is very complex. I needed choice,customization and spending a lot of money onglasses was something I couldn’t justify. My GreatGlasses experience was awesome. I didn’t need anappointment for my eye test and I got three pairsof glasses for less than I paid for one pair at myregular optical store. I couldn’t believe how greatthe deal was and how accommodating the staffwere to me. I will not buy glasses anywhere butGreat Glasses in the future.

I’m so glad that Bruce was willing to fight for goodcustomer value.

Last week I had the opportunity tospeak at Women’s AM, a gather-ing of local business women whomeet for breakfast once a month.

They asked me, generally, to talk aboutsocial media. It’s a bigtopic and I decided tofocus on what it meansto be successful withsocial media.

Success in social mediadepends on effective con-tent. For content to reallyconnect with clients, cus-tomers and key audiences,it has to resonate.

And if content resonatesin a big way, it will goviral.

Viral, unfortunately,can’t be planned. It hap-pens, and when it happens,the results are usually unexpected.

Sean Smith, my colleague and friendfrom Campbell River, is navigating theturbulent waters of instant online successafter his personal Facebook rant about BCFerries went viral last week.

Being a social media coach, Sean is bet-ter equipped than most to deal with theoverwhelming results of one tiny little

post, but there was no way he couldanticipate the online outpouring and reac-tion his “Dear BC Ferries” post generated.

He was sitting at the breakfast table,thinking about his frustration with the BCFerries system, and he decided to post histhoughts while eating his Cheerios.

His post hit a nerve and he had 4,000likes and 1,800 shares by dinnertime– and comments, lots and lots of com-ments.

By day two, the phone started ringingand news reporters were calling.

To date. Smith has had more than 20media interviews, and estimates totallikes and shares in the 90,000 range andguesses there are close to a million views.

I know Sean, and hedoes not shy away fromthe spotlight.

At the same time, he’sbecome part of what hedescribes as “Joan ofArc syndrome.”

“I am now the focalpoint of everybody’sexpectations and theunintended leader ofthe pack,” Sean said.

He doesn’t knowwhere the pack isgoing.

He has no agendabeyond keeping the conversation goingand hoping it leads to change.

As That Social Media Guy on Facebook,he both teaches and preaches the powerof social media to create meaningful dia-logue and promote change.

His viral rant brings both huge expecta-tions and a huge opportunity to extendengagement on the topic.

…continued from page A20In response, Smith has launched a Dear

BC Ferries Facebook page devoted to con-versation about change inthe B.C. Corporation, andpromoting the #bumsin-seats hashtag.

As a result of Smith’spost, the BC Ferries pagewent from 800 visits to8,000 within a week.

Social media successindeed.

The spin-off potential forBC Ferries and for relatedbusinesses that seize the opportunitycould be significant.

Smith’s story is partly inspirational andpartly a cautionary tale.

As he says “You can’t plan viral. It hap-pens, but when it happens it’s important

to have a strategy in place for how to dealwith it.”

Based on his example, I’ll continueto coach clients to lookfor ways to resonate andengage with large audi-ences to promote products,services, and ideas whileat the same time caution-ing them to be preparedfor sudden success.

Maple Ridge Secondary graduate PaytenSmith has her dad in her corner as shecontinues her impressive wrestling careerat the university level.

by Troy [email protected]

As the daughter of “Black Jack” Smith, laterknown as “The Hangman,” there’s a lot to liveup to.

But unlike her dad Bill, a former professionalwrestler who took his knocks as part of AlTomco’s B.C.-based All-Star Wrestling promo-tion from 1984-94, Payten Smith is winning hermatches the conventional way.

In other words, she doesn’t have the advan-tage of using eye gauges, Irish whips into theturnbuckles, atomic drops, and elbow smashesto overwhelm her opponents.

Eighteen-year-old Payten has forged her ownunbelievably successful path in the amateurgame.

In what was an illustrious high school wrest-ling career, Smith went undefeated over fouryears as a member of veteran head coach BillMcCrae’s Maple Ridge Secondary Ramblerssquad.

Smith had four national titles to her creditheading into her first year with SFU.

Success spilled over in her freshman yearof university wrestling with the Simon FraserUniversity Clan.

With the Clan, Smith competes in the 82 kilo-gram weight class in Canada, (191 pounds inthe U.S.).

Smith said the culture of amateur wrestling is

quite different in university, when compared tohigh school.

“The whole atmosphere, it’s a lot moreintense,” Smith said. “There’s a lot morematches for me. I usually have a full bout.Also, just the dedication that the other wrest-lers put into the wrestling, now, is a lot morethan high school. So, I’m actually fightingpeople who are working to be where they are.”

Just this year, Smith tasted defeat, somethingthat never happened to her in high school.

“I lost twice in Texas,” said Smith, who hasalready wrestled in four tournaments with theClan. “That was my second tournament.”

“I knew it was going to come,” Smith said,about her undefeated streak coming to an end.“I knew it was going to happen. You can’t winthem all.”

After suffering that first defeat, Smith brushedthe disappointment aside because she knewshe had plenty more matches to get through ina very hectic and grueling meet.

Losing to a pair of U.S. wrestlers was used asa learning experience for Smith.

“I feel I have improved so much since then,”she said. “My coach has helped me improveon what I need to improve on, and just themistakes that I made in the competition – theywere small mistakes.”

Smith is learning to juggle university stud-ies – she plans to work towards a bachelor’sdegree in biology – with wrestling. It’s hasn’talways always easy, though.

“It can be difficult because we travel quiteoften,” she said. “When we went to Texas, wewere gone for pretty much a whole week. Ialways take a look a week ahead and plan mydays around that.”

From the time she took the sport up in Grade8 at MRSS, Smith was a natural.

“I found I had a knack for it,” she said, add-ing with a chuckle, “it might have come frommy dad’s history of being a professional wrest-ler.”

She was never really into team sports andbelieves wrestling was the perfect fit for her,athletically.

“Being on the mats, and knowing it’s all upto you,” she said, regarding what the lure is forher to wrestling. “Everything you’ve done caneither be progressive or detrimental to whatyou’re doing on the mats.”

Moving forward, Smith has a goal of com-peting at the nationals and earning a spot onthe Canadian junior national team.

As Smith continues her career, she knowsshe’ll have her dad in her corner. But Bill real-izes he has to keep his emotions in check.

“Whatever she’s involved in, I’m basicallyinvolved in. Her drive for her school is veryimpressive. Sometimes, I’ve gotta learn to keepmy mouth shut,” he said.

RIDE

The easiest way to demonstrate howgreat the Fit is at packing stuff in isto unload another car into it, as Idid. The supplies for a week-longroad trip (including toddler, andaccompanying accessories) wereferried from a packed-to-the-gillsSubaru Impreza hatchback intothe Fit, and when the transferwas completed, the Honda stillhad space aplenty. The seats foldflat, the loading height is low, youcan flip the rear seat bottoms up formore clearance, or the whole thingturns into a sort of couch when you’rein line at the ferry.

Up front, Honda’s futurism is slightly moreof a mixed bag. At the top end of the scale, thecentre console is devoid of knobs. Actually, when powereddown, it’s completely blanked out.

Fire it up and there’s quite a lot of tech on display, andthe satellite navigation responds to pinch-and-swipecommands. It’s all fairly straightforward to use, but itsure would be handy to have an old-fashioned volumeknob. Happily, you get one on the base model.

You also have to wonder why there’s an HDMI inputbut no auxiliary jack. Still, with dual USB ports so thateveryone’s got enough to charge all their devices, anda number of interior cubbies, it’s a useful, comfortable,well-fitting place to be.

Performance:Even though this year’s Fit is slightly smaller than lastyear’s model, Honda’s managed to cram more powerunder hood. The engine is now a 1.5L four-cylindermaking 130hp at 6600rpm and 114lb/ft of torque at4600rpm. If you look at the torque figure, you’ll notethat it’s a little on the light side, so winding up thatlittle four-pot is required for passing or merging.

With the CVT automatic, doing so might be simply noisy.With the six-speed manual, it’s just like driving a Hondaof old. Rev it right up into the stratosphere and the Fitscurries down the on-ramp with aplomb. It’s not exactlyfast, but it’s as quick as you could want, even when loadeddown with a small family and their luggage.

Pitch it into a corner, and some of that old Honda charm

You forget you’redriving in a very small car

HondaFit

is not quite what it used to be. Thiscar is tuned for a smoother ride, and

isn’t quite as nimble as the first-genFit, or the old Civic hatchbackswere. Still, it’s no slouch and ifyou keep the revs up can still bean entertaining drive.

On longer roads at higherspeeds, the Fit’s subcompactroots do show through. Athighway speeds the tachometer

reads above 3000rpm, so there’splenty of engine noise to go with

the wind noise. I suppose it’s more acomment on the sheer amount of space

and nicely-appointed interior that youforget you’re driving in a very small car: for

its class, it’s perfectly acceptable.

Features:All Fits come with a standard backup camera andtouchscreen, power doorlocks, a tilt-and-telescopingsteering wheel, and a whole host of other features.Stepping up a level gets you those USB connectors andheated front seats, and the top-spec EX-L comes withsome pretty unique stuff.

Take Honda’s camera-based lane-watch system. Put on yourindicator and it shows you your right-side blind-spot displayedin the centre console. It’s not the only thing to look at, but anextra check that might help you spot a cyclist or similar.

Fuel economy ratings are decent, as you’d expectfor a subcompact, rated at 7.3L/100kms City and6.1L/100kms Highway for the CVT, and 8.1L/100kmsCity and 6.4L/100kms Highway for the manual.Observed consumption in the manual on the highwaywas slightly higher than rated.

Green Light:Clever interior use; good feature availability; strongfuel economy; willing performance

Stop Sign:Loud on the highway; lack of tactile controls; manualgeared on the low side

The Checkered Flag:The best interior in the segment and still solid in everyother category. Would Fit right in to your family.

today’sdriveYour journey starts here.

Fit: one syllable, two meanings. On one handyou’ve got a connotation indicating a goodheart rate, a lack of love handles, and a BMIthat doesn’t make your family doc furrow herbrow while flicking through your chart. On theother hand, it also means being the right size.

As a moniker to slap on the back of asubcompact, a company could hardly do

better, and with previous Fits, you could say muchthe same thing about Honda. Particularly in the firstgeneration to arrive in North America, the Fit wasquick, cute, capable, and fun to fling around. It wasthe most Honda-ish car in Honda’s lineup.

However, here’s the third generation and both widthand power are up. The demands of safety ratingsand comfort levels are ever-present and this car isno longer the little flighty Fit that we once knew andloved. It’s all grown up.

So, has the littlest Honda gone from Fit to Fat, Or is itstill survival of the Fittest?

Design:Like almost every other modern Honda, there’s a lotgoing on here design-wise. You’ve got your multi-layered grille, you’ve got your faux air-vents out back– it’s less cutesy than the first-gen Fit, and a tad moreaggressive than the previous model.

I quite like it. It’s very Japanese-looking, full of angularcreases and a scrunched-up profile, but the new Fit managesto look fresh without overdoing it. The rear non-functionalbumper-vents are a bit much, but other than that, it’s asharp-looking little pod. Hey little Honda, do you work out?

Base cars come with a 15” steel-wheel and the top-level EX-L trim comes with a 16” alloy. For those whoare buying a subcompact to keep the costs down, thatmeans your next set of winter tires isn’t going to breakthe bank even if you jump up to the all-the-bells-and-whistles model. There’s more good news inside too.

Environment:The Fit’s clever interior has been around long enough thatyou have to wonder why more manufacturers don’t copy it.Whatever the case, the Fit is fabulous on the inside.
