A familiar face at Maple RidgeRemembrance Day ceremonies, EugeneLambright will not miss this year’s services.Story and photos by Troy [email protected]
After some hesitation, EugeneLambright will, indeed, attend Thursday’sRemembrance Day ceremony in MapleRidge.
“I’ve been in the legion for 45 years, nowand I haven’t missed a Remembrance Dayservice, yet,” said Lambright, who willcelebrate his 90th birthday in early April.
Initially, Lambright wasn’t sure if hewould attend this year’s services. He told
the TIMES last week that the usuallyinclement November weather
would likely keep him
indoors once Nov. 11 rolls around.Since then, he’s changed his mind.“I’ve marched in the rain before,” he
said.Every Remembrance Day, the memory
of a brother, Ivan, and a nephew, Merle– both casualties of the Second World War– stir up strong emotions in Lambright,who recited the Act of Remembrance at lastyear’s ceremony in Maple Ridge.
Asked what part of Remembrance Day isthe most emotional part for him, Lambrightdidn’t hesitate.
“The [moment of] silence,” he said.With crowds at Remembrance Day cere-
monies larger than ever in Maple Ridgeand across Canada, Lambright believes themessage of sacrifice hasn’t been lost on theyounger generations.
“What we are trying to do is to informthe younger people who want to knowwhat we went through,” he said. “That’swhat we are trying to teach the children.”
Lambright is a lifelong Maple Ridge resi-dent.
“My dad came out here in 1927 to geta job,” Lambright recalled. “I went to theschool here in Hammond.”
He joined the Canadian Armed Forces inMarch 1942 and served overseas with theCanadian 15th field artillery before beingdischarged after the war ended in ’45.
“I was at the command post, where theguns are,” Lambright recalled. “My job wasto take signals and give them to the officerand he in turn would pass the orders to thegunners. They were out of the way and wehad megaphones and loudspeakers to con-tact the guns.”
Lambright toured a year in England, andtraversed France, Belgium, and Hollandbefore landing in Germany just before thewar ended.
“We had an observer up with the infan-try,” Lambright explained. “If the infantrywas having trouble, this here observer,he would pass orders down to the guns.We took the orders and then put ’em onthe guns.”
Lambright and his regiment bore theforce of fire, both friendly and fromthe Germans, he explained.
“Those Germans, they had artillery,too, and their job was to knock usout,” he said. “We got blasted quite afew times.”

Michelle Wright’s acousticshow at the ACT will bea study in subtlety, whilekeeping up the energy andperforming new and old hits.by Samantha [email protected]
Canadian country singerMichelle Wright has been perform-ing and touring for the past 20years, but her current tour has acompletely different feel from any-thing she’s done in the past.
In The WrightSongs 2010 tour,Wright will be performing a moreintimate, laid-back acoustic show,and she’s bringing that to townthis Friday night, Nov. 12 startingat 8 p.m. at the ACT.
“Everything about it is different,which has been really fun andexciting and challenging and scaryand intimidating and all of thosethings,” Wright told the TIMES.
With only her guitar, a keyboardplayer and guitarist, Wright saidshe tries to keep her energy upand make the shows entertainingand dynamic.
“It has been really challengingand fun and it’s caused all of usto sharpen up our chops, becausethere’s no drums banging or bassunderneath or lights flashingor any of those things to drawpeople’s attention,” she explained.
“It’s just the three of us andthe music. It’s really beautifulactually.”
For all those who attend hershow, Wright said they, as wellas herself, need to enjoy the quietmoments in an acoustic set.
“Learning the art of subtletyhas been interesting for me,” sheexplained.
“It’s a much more subtleapproach that is required and youhave to allow for the silence. Asopposed to the drummer clicking
in the next song, I’m taking off myguitar and setting it on the standand nobody’s doing anything.”
Instead of having a full band andher customary tour buses, Wrightsaid she and her band mates andcrew are travelling in two smallvehicles, with only six people inall.
With their smaller convoy,Wright and her crew have beenable to see more of the towns andlandscape than ever before. Duringa traditional tour they would leaveat midnight and travel through thenight.
“On this tour we’re driving, andI’m driving, because I’m a controlfreak,” Wright said. “I get to seethe countryside and we’ve reallybeen enjoying it.”
The acoustic tour started in NewBrunswick last month, and theWright team has been making itsway west across Canada.
Touring can be tiring, but Wrightsaid her love of music and per-forming keeps her going.
“Besides the fact that it pays thebills – I’m a working musician – Ialso just love to sing,” she said. “Ilove to play music with my band
mates and I love to travel too.”Wright released her first album,
Do Right By Me, in 1988, and ithas been well received since itwas released again in August.
“It’s been fun for me to singsome of those songs again; I thinkthey stand the test of time,” shesaid. “I don’t say that about every-thing I’ve recorded, but there’ssomething about that album.”
That “something” can be attrib-uted to Wright’s unique sound andlyrics. Her alto voice can be heardon past hits including Take It LikeA Man, New Kind of Love andCrank My Tractor.
Wright said she still has thesame voice as on her first album,it’s just gotten a bit more polishedover the years. Her songs continueto appeal to listeners’ emotions,with her humour and insight intohuman emotions.
“I think we’re all kind of livinglife and going through the samethings,” she said.
“No matter who you are, ourhopes and our hearts, and ourneeds, and our dreams, and ourwants, and all those things I thinkare the same, in general.”
After this tour wraps up, Wrightsaid she’ll be returning home toNashville, Tenn.
“I think [people] might notknow that I’m completely sort ofa domestic, traditional woman inmany ways,” Wright said.
“I talk about how much I lovebeing at home with my husbandand my doggie, because we don’thave children, and taking care ofthem and him and keeping thehouse beautiful and cooking.”
She takes advantage of her timeat home to enjoy life, help herhusband with his business andgarden.
“I’m like the Martha Stewart ofcountry music, I call myself.”

A Maple Ridge mandriving an uninsured carearly Friday morningrefused to stop for police,flipped his car, and land-ed in hospital.
Ridge Meadows RCMPhave recommended sever-
al Motor Vehicle Act char-ges against the 49-year-oldafter he refused to stop atabout 3 a.m. while travel-ling through north MapleRidge.
Mounties first spot-ted the man driving an
uninsured pickup truck,and attempted to pull himover with lights and siren.
The man just kept driv-ing at or near the postedspeed limit, police noted.
The truck headed northon 232 Street, and acceler-
ated once it was past 124Avenue. That promptedthe Mountie to turn off hisemergency equipment, butthe officer kept followingat a distance.
When the pickup cameto the intersection of Fern
Crescent and 232nd Street,the truck flipped on itsroof.
The driver, who wasby himself in the truck,was injured and had to betaken to Ridge MeadowsHospital by ambulance.

About 40 people attended Saturday’srally at the local MP’s office.by Mitch [email protected]
Grey and damp, rows of veterans stoodcalmly outside the front door of MP RandyKamp’s office, standards and medals ondisplay.
They came as part of the VeteransNational Day of Protest, a Canada-widemobilization of veterans in support ofreforming and protesting the 2006 NewVeterans Charter.
Under this legislation, they argue, veter-ans new and old are being stripped of thepensions and benefits they deserve, theirsecurity being replaced with lump sumpayouts, which Maple Ridge organizerGary Grigg believes is insufficient.
Others agreed, with approximately 40people having attended the short and sim-ple protest last Saturday morning.
For Gary Fourn, a veteran himself,it’s a matter of making sure his son, anengineer headed for his second tour, isproperly compensated after returning fromAfghanistan.
Fourn said the soldiers now “gettingshot at” and receiving “more serious injur-ies” will be worse off in the new systemthan the pension he received for his dia-betes under the old one.
Philip Ryan, a former airborne soldier,said he feels the clawing back of pensionfunds from 65-year-old veterans is com-pletely ridiculous.
“To me, that’s a slap in the face,” Ryansaid.
Minister of Veterans Affairs Jean-PierreBlackburn announced on the same day
as the protests that changes to the systemwere underway, including a reduction ofbureaucratic process and at least $58,000per year for the “most severely injured”veterans.
However, feelings of goodwill towardsthe pension system were short as the pro-test wound down.
As the supporters dispersed and headedto the local Army-Navy-Air Force hall,Grigg talked about the impact he hopesthe Veterans National Day of Protest willhave on the current policy.
“This is something we hope we don’thave to do annually,” he said.

We are in for a cold and stormy winter.The Old Farmer’s Almanac and local weather forecasters predict that we will beexperiencing one of the coldest winters on record, with the heaviest snowfalls inmid- and late December and late February.
Will your car be ready?One of the best ways to be prepared for the severe weather on its way is to beproactive.
One line of attack is a BCAA Membership.According to Colin MacPhail, Director, Membership Marketing and Product Managementat BCAA, many people wait until the first snowfall to call and by then BCAA is alreadyvery busy responding to their existing members.“When it cools down, our call centre gets flooded with phone calls, so we aretelling people not to wait until their lock freezes or their car won’t start to call us,” saysMacPhail.Meanwhile, winter driving can be rough on your car, which is why it isimportant to properly winterize your car to avoid costly car repair problems later. Fall isthe best time to get your car ready for old man winter.
Here are a few things you can do right now:Check to ensure you have the proper winter antifreeze and keep it topped up at alltimes; check tires for tread wear (snow tires are optimum); and have an emergency kitin your car at all times - it should include a shovel, sand for weight and traction, tirechains, a blanket, water, food, candles, a flashlight, a reflector and flares.“Should you get stuck on the side of the road for a few hours, someone should know ofyour trip plans and when you are to be where,” says MacPhail, adding to always haveyour cell phone fully charged when going on a long trip.
A membership offers great peace of mind and wonderful benefits.On top of reliable roadside assistance, members also have access to thousands of ShowYour Card and Save partner locations across North America where you can save ontravel, hotels, car rentals and much more!
The price for peace of mind?Less than $100 for an individual membership and even less to add an additionalmember.

A fourth mosaic hasappeared on the streets ofdowntown Maple Ridge– this one in front of theCD Shack, on the southside of Lougheed Highwaybetween 223 and 224Streets.
The current downtownenhancement project won’tinclude any more mosaics– these four cost about$5,000 to make – but thehope is more public artwill be integrated into thestreetscape of Maple Ridge.
Maple Ridge Mayor ErnieDaykin said the mosaicsare “awesome” and theDistrict is hoping to buildon that success.
With the popularity ofthe first four, similar pub-lic art projects could bedone by the private sector,Daykin said.
“What we’re trying to dois get businesses involved.”

Two excited children won a chance tobe a firefighter for a day, and spentFriday at the Pitt Meadows firehall.by Samantha [email protected]
Two Pitt Meadows elementary studentsgot to fulfill almost every child’s dreamFriday by spending the day as a fire-fighter.
Ashanti Cristales-Carias, eight, andAyden Morris, five, won a draw tobecome fire chiefs for a day.
They were picked up at their schoolsFriday morning in a gleaming red firetruck, rode in the front of the truck, andwere shown – throughout the day – whatit’s like to be a firefighter.
In the morning they visited the publicworks yard with assistant fire chief Brad
Perrie, saw the maintenance facility, andlearned how to take care of the trucks.
The children were also given their ownfirefighting suits and hats to keep, whichPerrie said they loved.
They also stopped by Pitt Meadows Cityhall and got to sit in the mayor’s chair inthe council chambers.
At each stop the children were givencandy, and Cristales-Carias’ face lit upwhen she showed her stash of suckersand sweets in her coat pocket.
When asked what her favourite part ofthe day was she replied, “Everything.”
The two children were also treatedto lunch at Boston Pizza, and had thechance to hose down and wash a firetruck.
Morris and Cristales-Carias both com-pleted home safety checks during FirePrevention Week in October and theirnames were selected in the annual fire-hall competition.

In Flanders Fields the poppies blowBetween the crosses, row on row...Where is Flanders Fields and what
do the poppies that grow there symbol-ize? Most people will remember, thanksto the poem by Canadian Lieutenant-Colonel John McCrae, that poppiesgrow in Flanders Fields in Belgium andnorthern France where many Canadiansoldiers lost their lives during the FirstWorld War – a lesson Canadian chil-dren learn in school in the weeks lead-ing up to Remembrance Day.
But part of the lesson is often leftout – why we buy poppies and wherethe money goes.
The money we pay for poppies beingsold by legion members, cadets, scouts,and community volunteers who spendendless hours around town in the colddays leading up to Remembrance Daygoes to help veterans of the variouswars Canada has fought in.
This year, the local Royal CanadianLegion, Branch 88, reported that theygot about $8,000 in just their firstweekend.
A large part of the money raised inthe community stays in the commun-ity. None of the money is allowed to beused for legion overhead, for example,for salaries, maintenance, and repairto buildings. The money is donated tolocal charities first, and then to provin-cial and global charities.
In Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows,the money is used to support veterans,sometimes those who are strugglingfinancially, or sometimes just for anappreciation dinner. In the past, moneyhas been used to pay for counsel-ling for soldiers who have post-trau-matic stress disorder. Last year, RidgeMeadows Hospital Foundation received$17,000, and Hospice Society $3,800from the poppy fund.
Canada still has veterans from theSecond World War, the Korean War,the Gulf War, and the current war inAfghanistan, as well as from countlesspeacekeeping missions.
Remember when you are out in thenext couple days, stop and chat withthe people selling poppies and even ifyou already have a poppy, throw in atoonie or more to help the veterans inour community stay active and healthy.
M.R.
There are all sorts of sayings thatpurport to deep-link our personalitiesto the people with whom we chooseto socialize.
“You can tell a man by the com-pany he keeps,” goes one such oldsaw.
But I’m here to tell you that birdsflocking together aren’t always “of afeather.”
Indeed, I was quite surprisedto learn just the other day that Ihave friends who boycott – actually boycott– Remembrance Day ceremonies.
Yup. You read that right.They boycott Remembrance Day ceremonies.We’re not talking about people who prefer to
go off quietly somewhere and contemplate ontheir own the sacrifices of people who helped tocreate the relatively benign world that most of usare able to enjoy – in some cases an ancestor…or a family member they never met.
We’re not talking about people who are toolazy – or maybe just too overworked and exhaust-ed – to get up in time for 11 a.m. RemembranceDay ceremonies at the nearest legion branch orcenotaph or grave-site memorial.
Heck, we’re not even talking about peoplewho would rather shoot a round of golf thantake some time to join with others around themand think about what has been gained – andespecially what has been lost – through war.
We’re not talking about people who don’t care.We’re talking about people who care a lot
– but have got entirely the wrong idea of whatRemembrance Day is all about.
We’re talking about people refusing to go outand honour our veterans on ideological grounds.
(I think that’s why the first part of “ideologic-al” sounds exactly like “idiot”).
And it’s not just a couple of distant acquaint-ances. When I discovered that there were suchsilly people within my circle of friends, I gotantsy. How many of the people I hang out withmight be equally foolish?
So I asked.And was surprised.No, astonished.For years, in some cases, people I
thought I knew well have consideredRemembrance Day to be an exercisein support of the death and destruc-tion of war.
They feel that going to aRemembrance Day ceremony is ademonstration of support for polit-icians who use the excuse of “leader-
ship” to stay safe at home while unthinkinglymaking decisions that send young men andwomen – our sons and our daughters – our hus-bands and wives and fathers and mothers – intoharm’s way on their behalf.
I hope no politicians are stupid enough tobelieve they have my support when I watch thedwindling ranks of Second World War veteransmarching on the cenotaph, and I try to imaginehow much more solid their bodies must havebeen when they were children marching intowar – and when I think of how the excitementin their eyes has been replaced by wisdom in theintervening years.
I hope no politicians are stupid enough tobelieve they have my support when the roll iscalled – and my breath catches in my throat atthe response, “They do not answer, sir!”
I hope no politicians are stupid enough tobelieve they have my support when I stand withmy head bowed on Thursday morning, thinkingabout all the people I’ve never met, all the menwho met bullets instead of future wives, the sol-diers who drowned in mud or watched the lightfade from dear friends’ eyes.
I hope no politicians are truly stupid enough tobelieve they have my support when I head backhome, thinking about how lucky I am that mymother and father survived what they survived.
All I have to remember on Remembrance Dayare the stories of those who have had too muchto remember.
And I promise not to forget.

Mailbag
Editor,As shown by our presence in the First
and Second World Wars, the KoreanWar, the Persian Gulf War, the mission inAfghanistan and countless peacekeepingassignments around the globe, Canada’stroops have always demonstrated excep-tional courage and determination.
Our soldiers, sailors, airmen, and air-women put their lives at risk every dayto defend Canadian sovereignty, fight forour values, and help create a fairand just world for every one of us.
That’s why our Conservative gov-ernment is taking concrete actionto address gaps in the way Canadacares for our veterans and theirfamilies. We are listening to the con-cerns of military personnel, veteransand their families and deliveringreal relief for those who needit.
Today’s conflicts havecreated new challenges forour men and women inuniform, and often causethem to serve in unique anddangerous situations.
Ensuring our veterans andtheir families have the support they need,when they need it, is a priority for ourConservative government. We are work-ing to update Canada’s current supportsystem to better reflect the needs of vet-erans of modern-day conflicts and theirfamilies.
When troops return home with a ser-vice-related injury, making ends meetis a real and significant concern. Often,it is a family member who becomes thecaregiver – he or she makes the medicalappointments, pays the bills, and makes
sure the children are taken care of.That’s why this fall, our government
proposed changes to the New VeteransCharter. It will increase financial supportfor seriously injured veterans. It will helpill and injured veterans who are unableto return to work by providing them withadequate monthly income through anenhanced earnings loss benefit. It willalso boost the annual income for thosereleased at lower salary levels.
We have also announcedour support of $52.5 mil-lion, over the span of fiveyears, to the establishmentof a “Legacy of Care” – asuite of five new initiativesto help seriously injuredmen and women in uni-form.
For generations, mem-bers of our Armed Forceshave worked every dayto serve our country anduphold its most treasuredvalues.
Our Conservative gov-ernment will continue to
work with veterans organizations andadvisory groups on the issues confrontingveterans. We want to help and recognizethose who have sacrificed so much to dothe job Canadians ask of them.
It’s the least we can do for those whohave placed themselves in harm’s way inthe name of promoting peace and free-dom around the world.

Editor,Re: [Focus on core, not farms, Nov. 5
Letters, TIMES]While I pretty much agree with Peter
Tam on where shopping should be locat-ed, I took offence to his comments onparticipation in the recent Albion charette– particularly his allega-tion that those whodidn’t show up justdon’t care.
Peter seems to for-get that not everyonehas his highly flexibleworking life, where theability to devote twofull days mid-week to avoluntary activity is rea-sonable expectation.
My first thoughton hearing about thecharette was that theywanted to discourageparticipation as muchas possible and didn’twant any workingpeople there.
This exercise wasdesigned with the com-fort of those who getpaid to attend suchthings in mind.
I would hope that if the community isgoing to engage in these processes in thefuture that they reconsider the schedul-ing.
Val Patenaude, Maple Ridge
Big box stores welcomeRegarding the comments that a major-
ity voted against big box stores in AlbionFlats:
Majority of what?Those who packed one meeting in a
process?This reminds me of the distorting TV
polls that confidently announce a major-ity voted for this orthat.
Such polls onlyreflect the wishes ofthose who actuallyphone in and mayentirely misrepresentthe larger generalpopulation.
How about pollingthe larger popula-tion of East MapleRidge who are dir-ectly affected by thisongoing problemof insufficient localshopping outlets.
How about pollingall who are so tiredof the long drive toPoco and Coquitlam,or Langley to shopand who would rath-er spend their dollarslocally if there were
the suitable large retail outlets that we alllook for (Costco, Walmart, Home Depot,Future Shop, and so on).
I am certain, as the past poll of theentire community showed, that a clearmajority (I believe it was 70 per cent)wants large retail outlets in Albion Flats.

Bless youEditor,
Re: [Prayers may bechopped, Nov. 5, The TIMES]hopefully, Linda King will neversneeze during a council session.
Another council membermight make the fatal error ofsaying “Bless you” in whichcase the offending memberwould presumably be instantlydrummed out of the meeting.

Consumed works with 13 familiesand couples who need organization
With the buying culture common intoday’s society, clutter may be a problemfor some families and couples in MapleRidge and Pitt Meadows, but a new tele-vision series is coming to their rescue.
HGTV Canada is looking for 13 familiesin the Lower Mainland to be in their newshow, Consumed, which will help peoplewhose lives are being hindered by theirclutter.
The series will offer professional help toget their homes and lives back in order.
The show host is professional organizerJill Pollack, who worked for more than 10years as a TV producer and has been fea-tured in many magazines and TV shows,helping people find opportunities for posi-tive change in the absence of clutter.
She now helps people get rid of clutter
in their closets, garages, offices, kitchens,bedrooms, purses and more.
The families on Consumed will undergoa 30-day de-cluttering experiment wherethey are left with only the bare essentials.
The process will be filmed of what it islike for them to live with less.
At the end of their experiment theirbelongings will be brought back and theywill decide whether to keep, toss, donateor recycle them.
Pollack’s philosophy is to “own yourstuff, don’t let your stuff own you.”
Filming for Consumed will begin asearly as this month and will take placeover the next six months.
The show will air on HGTV Canada inthe summer of 2011.
People who feel they need to de-clut-ter their lives are invited to the show’sorganizers via email at [email protected] or by calling 604-873-9777,extension 253 or 251.

At least 150 people of allages took their turn helpingcreate the Legion Leaf.by Roxanne [email protected]
Another giant maple leaf hasfallen into place in Maple Ridge.
This one was erected thisweekend in front of the RoyalCanadian Legion headquarterson 224th Street.
The giant leaf – aptly namedthe Legion Leaf – is carvedout of yellow and red cedarand symbolizing a tribute toMaple Ridge and Pitt Meadows’veterans and soldiers and theCanadian war efforts.
Applause, speeches, tears,and countless accolades flowedSunday before a crowd of about
50 – including dignitaries,legionnaires, and members ofthe Ridge Meadows EducationFoundation – who came out tosee the unveiling of the carvedwooden leaf.
This was the second leaf pro-ject undertaken by the founda-tion, but was a joint effort withthe local legion and involvedupwards of 150 different peoplewho helped carve and erect thepiece of public art, explainedCheryl Ashlie, one of the primeorganizers.
It was over a year in the mak-ing, and cost about $4,500 tomake. But what makes this pro-ject so special, said Ashlie, wasthe involvement of many youthand seniors who took their turnat carving part of the leaf.
The piece was designed by EricMuller and overseen by mastercarver Doug Morrison. But at
least 103 people from the com-munity pitched in and helpedcarve between mid-Septemberand completion on Oct. 23.
“It’s an honour to be part ofit,” Ashlie said, amid tears. “Iget emotional over anything todo with the war effort, because
of the effects the war had on mylife and my father.”
But this project is especiallydear to her heart, and seeingit realized Sunday repeatedlymoved her to tears.
A few months after thefoundation’s Spirit Leaf wasunveiled at the ACT, Ashlie wasapproached with an anonym-ous donation of $2,000 as seedmoney for another leaf project.The only stipulation was it hadto commemorate the war efforts.Legion president Jim MacDonaldwas quick to get the legioninvolved and proud to let itstand near the front door to thebranch office.
The educational foundationwill undoubtedly do a third leafproject soon, but Ashlie saidnothing is in the works just yet.
“I just know in my head it’sPitt Meadows’ time,” she said.

…continued from page A1The only time Lambright felt
like he was in mortal dangerwas when the American for-ces mistook the Canadians forthe enemy.
“They got us mixed up andthey started dropping bombson us,” he said. “We did havea lot of close calls from theGerman artillery. They hadtwo or three hits right on ourguns. We did get shelled quitea few times.”
Lambright learned aboutthe end of the Second WorldWar when he was stationed inGermany in 1945.
“We had heard rumoursthat the war was going to beended,” he said. “We were sit-ting around the camp, there,and all of the sudden we weretold, ‘The war has ended.Empty guns.’ That meansempty our artillery. We werestill thousands of miles from
home and we didn’t knowwhen we were going to gethome.”
He landed on Canadian soilto quite a reception.
Lambright said his “wholefamily was there” to greet himat the Vancouver airport.
“There was a lot of peoplethere to see us come in. Ina way, it was [emotional]. Ihadn’t seen my family for anumber of years,” he said.
Lambright returned to theHammond cedar mill, wherehe worked for 42 years, beforeand after the war.
“Some people say they hadto join the army to get a job.Well, I had a job. I worked atthe mill,” he said. “When Icame back from the war, well,I had a job waiting for me.”
He married his wife Alice(since passed away) in 1957and the couple had a son,Donald.
