Garrett “Rocky” Burnett was best known as an NHL enforcer during his brief hockey league stint, but his reputation didn’t protect him during a bar room brawl that put him on life support. Now, the B.C. government is suing more than 30 people, including Delta’s police chief, to recover what it spent on Burnett’s lengthy hospitalization and recovery. The B.C. Supreme Court lawsuit, filed Aug. 9, said Burnett was smashed over the head with a bar stool, injuring his brain, putting him in a coma and on life support. Delta Police Chief Jim Cessford was named as the person responsible for the two investigating officers, Paul Uppal and Lorne Pike, who the lawsuit said failed to safeguard evidence like video surveillance. “He subsequently failed to conduct a full and thorough investigation of the assault and failed to keep any adequate record of such investigation,” the lawsuit said of Uppal. The fight happened on Boxing Day, 2006 at the Cheers Nightclub inside the North Delta Inn. The lawsuit lists the owner of the inn, a dozen of its employees and 10 unknown patrons as additional defendants. The suit alleges the bar owner and its employees failed to make sure Burnett would be safe, didn’t properly alert emergency responders after the assault and didn’t have a proper system for monitoring alcohol consumption. The allegations have not been proven in court. Burnett played 39 games for the Anaheim Ducks in the 2003-2004 season. The lawsuit doesn’t specify a dollar figure for the health costs.

The B.C. government’s plan to appoint a municipal auditorgeneral has raised concerns in local government circles, but the minister responsible says it won’t mean the province is going to start telling local councils how to tax and spend money. Community, Sport and Cultural Development Minister Ida Chong met with the executive of the Union of B.C. Municipalities in late July to discuss the plan. According to a summary sent by the UBCM to its member councils, the UBCM executive complained about the lack of consultation and asked Chong if local councils’ policy decisions would be exempt from a municipal auditor’s authority, as they are in other jurisdictions. Chong said in an interview yesterday that B.C.’s municipal auditor won’t overrule local governments, but “performance audits” would highlight areas where communities can save money. The service will benefit the 160 local governments in B.C., especially the smaller ones, she said. “More than half of our municipalities have populations under 5,000,” Chong said. “They don’t have the capacity to do value-for-
money audits or performance audits.” Smaller communities also receive unconditional grants from the province, and a municipal auditor-general would check whether they are spent effectively. All municipalities get federal and provincial cost-sharing grants for major projects, and an auditorgeneral could compare a group of communities to see which ones are more efficient.
Premier Christy Clark promised a municipal auditor general while running for the B.C. Liberal leadership. Her platform promised to expand the provincial auditor-general’s office to include a municipal auditor, and to “review the municipal taxation formula.” Chong said municipal tax rates wouldn’t be the first priority, but a municipal auditor general may choose to compare rates and their effect on industrial development.

SUSPECTS SOUGHT IN BUNGLED GROW-RIP MISSION RECORD (Black Press)
Mission police are hunting for two males who invaded a Silverdale home Sunday, mistakenly believing it contained a grow-op. The pair of masked suspects, one of whom was armed, entered the Silverdale Avenue home at 2 p.m. Aug. 7 and demanded to be shown the pot. When they couldn’t find any, the men told the victims not to call police and left. The residents were not hurt. Police are asking anyone who saw any suspicious people or vehicles in the area to call them at 604-826-7161, or anonymously at 1-800-222-8477.

A dog is recovering in Kamloops, and the B.C. SPCA is investigating after finding the pet inside a vehicle parked in 31 degree heat. Special Const. Kent Kakoska says by the time rescuers had managed to release the dog Tuesday afternoon, the temperature in the direct sun inside the vehicle had topped 54 degrees Celsius. Kakoska describes the car as a blast furnace. He says the dog was in obvious distress, panting heavily and appearing to need immediate attention.

The union is looking for improved working conditions and job security after the workers’ contract expired in March 2010.

PICKTON INQUIRY ADDS INDEPENDENT LAWYERS VANCOUVER (Canadian Press)
The public inquiry into the Robert Pickton case has appointed two independent lawyers to represent the interests of aboriginal women and residents of Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside, an attempt to pacify a number of community groups that plan to boycott the hearings. The appointments come as a growing list of advocacy groups that were granted participant status at the inquiry vow to skip the hearings because they were denied provincial government funding. The pair of lawyers appointed yesterday won’t represent any specific client, but a news release said they will take guidance from the groups that have been granted participant status.
The lawyers are former B.C. Civil Liberties Association president Jason Gratl, and Robyn Gervais, who has previously represented the Carrier Sekani Tribal Council. Gervais will also have the help of two additional lawyers working pro bono. Commissioner Wally Oppal recommended 13 participants receive public funding to pay for lawyers at the inquiry, but the provincial government only approved funding for relatives of Pickton’s victims. Some of the groups that were denied funding have already said they won’t use the independent lawyers because they feel the lawyers won’t be able to properly represent their interests. So far, more than half of the community groups that were granted status have either formally withdrawn or announced plans to do so.

Public health officers will take a hard look at any health risks posed if Metro Vancouver builds a new garbage incinerator. B.C. chief medical health officer Dr. Perry Kendall supports the planned public health impact assessment even though he doubts a modern waste-to-energy plant would pose a significant threat to the public. “Concerns have been expressed,” he said, adding it’s “useful, necessary and good practice” to study the issue. A health risk review could be 18 months away, after an expected call for bids in 2012.

TURMEL’S SEPARATIST TIES NO BIG DEAL: POLL OTTAWA (Canadian Press)
A new poll suggests few people are very concerned that interim NDP Leader Nycole Turmel is a former member of the separatist Bloc Quebecois. The Canadian Press-Harris/Decima survey found that only about 20 per cent of respondents considered it a major issue. Almost half – 46 per cent – said her earlier affiliation with the party isn’t an issue. Just over a quarter of those polled called it a minor issue.

Charkaoui says the allegations are false and represent a threat to his security.

China’s first aircraft carrier swept through fog-shrouded waters yesterday to open sea trials that underscore concerns about the country’s growing military strength and its increasingly assertive claims over disputed territory. The mission by the 1,000-foot refurbished former Soviet carrier marks a first step in readying the craft for full deployment. Information about the cruise was tightly restricted in line with the Chinese military’s habitual secrecy, although the official Xinhua News Agency indicated that the trip had been planned for some time.
Pakistan handed a key suspect in the 2002 Bali bombings over to Indonesian authorities yesterday, more than six months after he was captured in the country’s northwest, Pakistani officials said. Umar Patek allegedly built the bombs used in the suicide attacks on Bali nightclubs that killed 202 people, many of them Australian tourists. Patek, an Indonesian national, had a $1 million bounty on his head when he was captured in the Pakistani town of Abbottabad on Jan. 25, four months before Osama bin Laden was killed there in a U.S. commando attack.
The top UN envoy in Somalia is warning that warlords will fill the vacuum created by the departure of al-Shabab Islamist fighters from the capital unless the government takes immediate action to promote law and order. Augustine Mahiga told the UN Security Council in a briefing from Mogadishu yesterday that al-Shabab’s unexpected withdrawal from the city presents the first opportunity in years for the transitional government to exercise authority over the capital. If this is managed effectively, he said, it will “expedite political gains” and the delivery of humanitarian aid.
A UN food agency says that cereal prices in famine-stricken East Africa reached new peaks in several countries last month, adding to an already dramatic situation for millions of hungry people. The United Nations estimates that tens of thousands of people have died from malnutrition in Somalia in recent months. Over 11 million people across East Africa need food aid because of a long-running drought. The high prices are the result of a combination of factors, including poor harvests because of the drought and sharp increases in fuel and transport costs, the agency said.

As bemused shoppers looked on, the man spoke into a microphone inside his costume about their first date six months ago. He then peeled away his disguise and proposed. Shoppers shouted “marry him, marry him,” and she accepted.

COURTS BARRED FROM CHANGING AFGHAN VOTE RESULTS KABUL, Afghanistan (Associated Press)
Afghanistan’s president issued a decree yesterday stating that the country’s courts do not have the power to alter election results, appearing to bow to pressure to resolve an impasse over the parliament’s legitimacy that threatened to create a constitutional crisis. The Afghan parliament has been in limbo after a special court in June called for the removal of 62 sitting lawmakers, saying they won their seats through fraud. The dispute hamstrung the country’s already tumultuous Hamid Karzai political system, with the courts, the president and legislature all claiming the right to make the final ruling about last year’s messy elections. Afghanistan’s September 2010 ballot was plagued by irregularities and voter intimidation. Fraud monitors discarded 1.3 million ballots – nearly a quarter of the total – and disqualified 19 winning candidates for cheating. In his decree, President Hamid Karzai said that the Independent Election Commission – which organized the vote – holds the final authority on deciding vote counts and results. Presidential spokesman Siamak Herawi said the commission will evaluate the court’s findings and it will decide if any candidates should be removed.

International forces killed the Taliban insurgents responsible for shooting down a U.S. helicopter and killing 38 U.S. and Afghan forces over the weekend, but they are still seeking the top insurgent leader they were going after in Saturday’s mission, the top American commander in Afghanistan said yesterday. U.S. Marine Corps Gen. John Allen told a Pentagon news conference that an F-16 air strike Monday took out fewer than 10 insurgents involved in the attack on the Chinook helicopter. In a separate statement yesterday, the military said International forces the Monday strike killed Talhave killed the iban leader Mullah MohibulTaliban insurgents lah and the insurgent who responsible for fired the rocket-propelled shooting down a grenade at the helicopter. U.S. helicopter and The military said intellikilling 38 U.S. and gence gained on the ground Afghan soldiers over provided a high degree of the weekend. confidence that the insurgent who fired the grenade was the person killed. Allen defended the decision to send in the Chinook loaded with special operations forces to pursue insurgents escaping from the weekend firefight with Army Rangers in a dangerous region of Wardak province of eastern Afghanistan. “We’ve run more than a couple of thousand of these night operations over the last year, and this is the only occasion where this has occurred,” said Allen. “The fact that we lost this aircraft is not ... a
decision point as to whether we’ll use this aircraft in the future.” While officials believe the helicopter was shot down by a rocket-propelled grenade, Allen said the military’s investigation into the crash will also review whether small arms fire or other causes contributed to the crash. Questions remain about why the troops were called in to aid other U.S. combatants engaged in a firefight, what they knew about the situation on the ground and what role the flight path or altitude may have played in the disastrous crash.

OSLO, Norway (Associated Press)
Norwegian investigators increasingly believe the man who confessed to killing 77 people in last month’s attacks planned and committed them on his own, a prosecutor said yesterday. Anders Behring Breivik detonated a bomb in Oslo on July 22, killing eight people, followed by a massacre at a youth camp where he shot dead 69 others. There was initial speculation that others were involved in the attack, but prosecutor Christian Hatlo said that after 40 hours of questioning, police are fairly certain Breivik acted alone and that he appears to be telling the truth. Hatlo said police have been able to verify much of what Breivik told them about the attacks, and that they had not discovered “any direct lie, yet.” “That is also why we, with a certain confidence, can say that he was alone, but I have to emphasize that we have not concluded yet,” Hatlo said. Investigators searched his computer and cellphone records for any signs of contact with other extremists who may have helped or influenced him. Law enforcement agencies in other countries have assisted Norway, including in the U.S., where authorities interviewed Breivik’s sister.

GLEE MOVIE CENTRES ON FANS, MUSIC, CHARACTERS LOS ANGELES (Associated Press)
Concert movies typically offer a peek into the private moments of a pop star’s life. Michael Jackson: This Is It revealed the entertainer’s perfectionist tendencies, and sly sense of humour. Justin Bieber: Never Say Never showed the teen singer’s drive for success. But Glee: The 3D Concert Movie, opening tomorrow, is an 83-minute romp with the fictional characters who populate the Fox TV series. It’s multi-purposing at its finest: stars Lea Michele, Cory Monteith, Kevin McHale, Chris Colfer, Amber Riley, Heather Morris and the rest maintain their Glee personae while performing hits from the show during the concert tour that traversed the U.S. earlier this summer. And that’s what sets it up for success, says director Kevin Tancharoen. “It would have been completely disconnected from what made (the show) extremely popular if it had turned into, ‘Oh, look at Lea Michele and Cory Monteith and Harry Shum Jr. be superstars and rehearse and do press and record and go on tour,’” Tancharoen said. “That’s why I think it’s different from those other concert films,” he continued. “Those are all rock stars and musicians, and these are characters who mean something different to everybody else. They are extremely talented and they all sing very well and perform very well, and that’s another big part of the
show that was very popular, so we kind of wanted to mix all that stuff together to make this 3D concert experience.” In addition to on-stage performances of songs such as Teenage Dream and I’m a Slave 4 U, the film also shows its stars giving backstage interviews in character. “I feel like I did a nice blend of Rachel and of Lea while I was onstage performing,” Michele said Saturday. “We are our characters, but at the same time when we walk on stage, we are ourselves.”

ALEC BALDWIN CONSIDERING RUN FOR NYC MAYOR
NEW YORK, N.Y. (Associated Press)
Alec Baldwin says he’s thinking of running for mayor of New York, but not until he learns more about the job. The 30 Rock actor told the New York Times he’ll sit out 2013 but will consider running in a later election. In a wide-ranging interview, the 53-yearold actor says he’s talking with two top universities about enrolling in a master’s program in politics and government. He says he wants to better understand the fiscal Alec Baldwin imperatives of the mayor’s job. He says running in 2013 also is impossible because he’s obligated to complete the current season of 30 Rock. He says he plans to establish a permanent residence in the city before running. His current legal residence is Amagansett, Long Island. He has owned a Manhattan apartment for two decades.

RAMSAY TIRED OF BAD BOY IMAGE
CTV ANCHOR ROBERTSON IN LINE FOR GEMINI AWARD
MONTREAL (Canadian Press)
The man who put the spicy “Fâ€? in food says he’s a little tired of being recognized only as the bad boy of haute cuisine. “I don’t get judged enough for what I put on a plate,â€? said a softspoken Gordon Ramsay, using none of the scorching profanity that so often reduces his TV tirades to a series of bleeps. “I get judged more, I suppose, as a persona from TV, which is a pain in the butt, to be honest,â€? he said before the opening yesterday of his ďŹ rst restaurant in Canada. “I have three Michelin stars, which was my ďŹ rst-ever ambition in cooking. Today’s media, it has its good parts and its bad parts but judge me on the plate, not me on the TV.â€? The Scottish-born Ramsay is internationally renowned through a string of acclaimed restaurants and is a familiar face staring down at Canadians from the covers of his popular cookbooks in stores. He’s also known for his volcanic demeanour on shows such as Kitchen Nightmares, Hell’s Kitchen, MasterChef and The F Word. In Britain, he’s also been in the

The chief anchor of CTV National News with Lloyd Robertson will be presented with the Gordon Sinclair award for broadcast journalism on Aug. 30, two days before his ďŹ nal newscast. Robertson is set to retire after more than 50 years in the broadcasting industry. He’s one of 10 recipients being honoured for exceptional contributions to the Canadian television and digital media industries. Other recipients include Road to Avonlea actor Cedric Smith; the National Film Board of Canada for its interactive productions and 3D experiments; and Christina Jennings of the production house Shaftesbury, which produces shows including Murdoch Mysteries and The Listener. The awards will be handed out during two industry galas for the Gemini Awards on Aug. 30 and 31.

Gordon Ramsay opened his ďŹ rst Canadian restaurant last night.
about the Montreal restaurant, which has been a local favourite since 1936 when it opened as Rotisserie Laurier BBQ. Its new name: the Laurier Gordon Ramsay. Ramsay, 44, said it was natural for him to choose Montreal as his ďŹ rst Canadian stake. “Montreal in many ways chose me,â€? he said, comparing Montreal to Paris. “I fell in love with the place literally ďŹ ve years ago.â€? He had come to Quebec to shoot a documentary on wild geese and found “a stunning foodie culture evolving here. It’s quite unique.â€? Ramsay, who has a reputation for putting agging restaurants back on their feet, acknowledged he felt like he’d been taken to a retirement home when he was brought to Rotisserie Laurier BBQ for lunch two years ago. But he saw “huge potential.â€? “Businesses don’t survive on nostalgia,â€? he noted, saying he’s conďŹ dent old customers as well as new clients will be thrilled with what he’s done. While Ramsay says he’s just as excited opening his Montreal restaurant as he was opening his ďŹ rst eateries in London and Paris, he isn’t looking at setting up in any other Canadian cities just yet.

U.S. SUBSCRIBERS HANG UP ON CABLE IN Q2 NEW YORK (Associated Press)
The weak economy is hitting Americans where they spend a lot of their free time: at the TV set. They’re cancelling or forgoing cable and satellite TV subscriptions in record numbers, according to an analysis by The Associated Press of the companies’ quarterly earnings reports. In a tally by the AP, eight of the nine largest subscription-TV providers in the U.S. lost 195,700 subscribers in the April-to-June quarter. That’s the first quarterly loss for the group, which serves about 70 per cent of households. The loss amounts to 0.2 per cent of their 83.2 million video subscribers. The chief cause appears to be persistently high unemployment and a housing market that has many people living with their parents, reducing the need for a separate cable bill.
LUXURY SHOEMAKER MAY LOSE RED SOLE TRADEMARK NEW YORK (Associated Press)
A French luxury shoemaker has lost a round in its New York court battle against a rival it claims unfairly copied its line of women’s shoes with red soles. Christian Louboutin filed the lawsuit in U.S. District Court in Manhattan in April against competitor Yves Saint Laurent S.A.S., another French company based in Paris. A federal judge has denied Louboutin’s request for a preliminary injunction. The parties have been ordered back to court next week. The lawsuit says designer Christian Louboutin originated the Red Sole logo trademark nearly 20 years ago. It says he created the idea when he painted red nail polish on the black soles of a pair of women’s shoes. ADD YOUR

Brett Lawrie hits a grand slam against the Oakland Athletics during the sixth inning last night in Toronto.
LAWRIE’S GRAND SLAM LEADS JAYS PAST A’S TORONTO (Canadian Press)
Brett Lawrie of Langley hit a grand slam in Toronto’s five-run sixth inning to vault the Blue Jays into the lead as they defeated the Oakland Athletics 8-4 last night. It was the second homer of his five-game majorleague career. The 21-year-old third baseman played his first game for Toronto (59-57) last Friday in Baltimore. Lawrie now has six RBIs since being called up from triple-A Las Vegas. In Lawrie’s next at-bat he lined a double off the left-field fence for a double with one out in the eighth. As he slid in to second the crowd chanted “Lawrie, Lawrie.” The Canadian then scored on a single by Rajai Davis. Lawrie was 2-for-4 on the night, and is hitting .389 (7-for-18) over his five-game career. After Lawrie scored, Yunel Escobar was hit by a pitch from left-hander Jordan Norberto and the benches cleared briefly. Order was restored quickly. Oakland (52-64) picked up a run in the ninth when Josh Willingham hit his 19th homer of the season against reliever Jesse Litsch. Reliever Casey Janssen (4-0) picked up the win, while Listch picked up his first career save.
JAYS WIN 8-4
Henderson Alvarez , called up from double-A New Hampshire, lasted 5 and 2/3 innings in his major-league debut. The 21-year-old pitcher allowed three runs and eight hits. Left-hander Gio Gonzalez (9-10) took a 3-1 lead into the sixth but left with the bases loaded with none out for left-handed reliever Craig Breslow. Gonzalez had filled the bases after Adam Lind’s double and walks to Edwin Encarnacion and Colby Rasmus. Before Rasmus walked, he missed a bunt and Lind was caught off second, but catcher Kurt Suzuki’s throw went into centre field for an error to put runners at second and third. Aaron Hill singled in a run with the bases still loaded. That set the stage for Lawrie’s grand slam. The rookie smashed a 2-0 90-m.p.h. fastball over the left-field fence to put the Blue Jays into a 6-3 lead. Lawrie had to wave from the dugout when the crowd chanted his name after the grand slam. Earlier in the day, the Blue Jays were defending themselves to the media after an ESPN story suggested Toronto was stealing signs. The article was based off complaints from four players on an opposing team and suggested Toronto used someone in the stands to send signs to Jays hitters about pitches in April of 2010. “I’ve been in the organization for a long time, this is my second year as a GM,” general manager Alex Anthopoulos said before the game. “I’ve never gotten a phone call, e-mail, or a text, nothing relating to this. It’s never come up, ever.”

NADAL SHOCKED IN ROGERS CUP SECOND ROUND MONTREAL (Canadian Press)
Another big name has fallen at the Rogers Cup. World No. 2 Rafael Nadal was ousted in three sets after a long and spectacular match against Croatia’s Ivan Dodig yesterday. After the first set, Nadal looked to be coasting to a convincing win, but Dodig came back to eliminate the Spanish star 1-6, 7-6 (5), 7-6 (5), in a match that lasted three hours eight minutes. “This is the greatest moment of my life,” said Dodig following the surprising victory. Dodig also thanked the Montreal fans, who cheered him for much of the match. The upset comes one day Rafael Nadal after fourth seed and two-time defending champion Andy Murray was sent packing after a 6-3, 6-1 loss to South Africa’s Kevin Anderson. Also yesterday, defending champ Caroline Wozniacki crashed out of the Rogers Cup women’s draw in Toronto. The top-ranked Dane was shocked by Roberta Vinci 6-4, 7-5. Wozniacki, who has won a WTA-leading five titles this year, was up 5-1 in the second set and looking to rally from a set down. However, the No. 22-ranked Italian stormed back with three break points to complete the upset.

MONTREAL COPS FINISH CHARA PROBE MONTREAL (Canadian Press)
A police investigation into Boston Bruins captain Zdeno Chara has been completed and the file has been transferred, as per standard procedure, to criminal prosecutors. Now that the investigation is over Crown lawyers must decide whether to lay charges over Chara’s devastating hit against Montreal Canadiens forward Max Pacioretty. Montreal police had held off interviewing Chara during the spring, while his Bruins were on their Stanley Cup-winning run. Investigators finally questioned him last month. Authorities in Quebec got involved in the file last March, amid a public outcry after the NHL announced it would not suspend Chara for smashing his opponent into a stanchion. Pacioretty has recovered from a cracked vertebra and concussion, and is expected to return to action next season. Before the hit, the Habs forward had been involved in a series of skirmishes with Chara in an increasingly bitter rivalry. Pacioretty later said he was disgusted by the league’s failure to suspend him, but also added that he disagreed with the decision for law-enforcement to get involved.

Swiss watchmaker Tag Heuer has ended its 10-year commercial relationship with Tiger Woods, and expressed hopes the former topranked golfer can “overcome his difficulties.” Tag Heuer had stopped promoting Woods’s image in the United States in 2009, weeks after revelations about his marital problems emerged.
Olympics | Three-time Olympic rowing goldmedallist James Tomkins has been chosen as Australia’s candidate for the next IOC election. “We are confident that Tiger will eventually regain full trust with the public, and that his huge talent and mental strength will help him overcome his difficulties,” Tag Heuer chief executive JeanChristophe Babin said in a statement. “We wish Tiger all the best for the future endeavours in golf, with new business partners, and in his private life.” Tiger Woods Tag Heuer said it had enjoyed an “exemplary” partnership with Woods which had been “very beneficial to both parties.” However, the watch brand joined
11
other companies in backing away from Woods after his personal life began to unravel following a 2009 car accident at his Florida home. Babin said then that Tag Heuer had to “take account of the sensitivity of some consumers.” Woods, a 14-time major winner, has not won a tournament since his personal problems were publicly aired. Tag Heuer said it will continue to support Woods’s charitable foundation through sales of a watch he designed.

STREETS DESERTED IN HAMA, GOVERNMENT IN FULL CONTROL HAMA, Syria (Associated Press)
GADHAFI’S YOUNGEST SON SHOWN ON TV TO REFUTE DEATH CLAIMS BENGHAZI, Libya (Associated Press)
Libyan state television broadcast images yesterday of a man it said was Moammar Gadhafi’s youngest son in an attempt to refute rebel claims that he had been killed in a NATO air strike. Rebels claimed on Friday that 27-year-old Khamis Gadhafi, who commands one of the best trained and equipped units in the Libyan military, was killed in the western front-line town of Zlitan. The regime dismissed the claim and said the rebels were only trying to deflect attention from the killing last week of the opposition’s military commander, possibly by other rebels. The images on television showed the son at a Tripoli hospital visiting people wounded in a NATO air strike and said it was on Tuesday. If genuine, it would be the first time he has been seen in public since the reports of his death. The Libyan revolt that began in February has sunk into a deep stalemate in the past few months, with the rebels holding on to most of the eastern half of the country that they captured early on and Gadhafi’s regime controlling most of the west. Neither side has been able to tip the balance into an outright victory.

The streets of Hama were deserted yesterday and the city in central Syria that has come to symbolize defiance against the regime appeared to be under full government control after last week’s brutal crackdown on protesters. To the east, troops seized control of another flashpoint city, Deir el-Zour, after four days of intense shelling and gunfire. The government took journalists on a tour to see a rare glimpse of Hama, a city of 800,000 which has seen some of the largest anti-government protests of the 5-month-old uprising. About 50 armoured personnel carriers were placed on flatbed trucks heading out of the city after a week-long military assault that the government said was aimed at rooting out “terrorists.” The government blames the unrest in Syria on foreign extremists, a claim dismissed by most observers. Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan also said his ambassador reported that tanks and security forces had begun to withdraw from Hama. “Let’s hope that this develop-

Annual Rotary Abbotsford Environmental Business Awards The Rotary Club of Abbotsford-Matsqui has created the Environmental Business Awards as a Community Service to recognize business leaders in the Abbotsford community that are environmentally conscious and making efforts to reduce their business’ carbon footprint. The first Annual Environmental Business Awards Banquet will be held in the fall, where the nominees and winners will be recognized. The earth is under siege from a number of environmental challenges, and each of us as individuals and in our businesses is responsible for doing our part to preserve, and if necessary, restore the environment. It is time for us all to work together to make a difference!
ment results positively and that within 10 or 15 days the process is completed so that steps toward reforms are taken in Syria,” Erdogan said. In Hama, cement and metal barriers blocked streets and soldiers were removing some of the barricades. Piles of uncollected garbage littered the streets. At the southern entrance of the city, a two-story police station was burnt.
“We have finished a delicate operation in which we eradicated terrorists’ hideouts,” an army officer told reporters. During last week’s siege, witnesses gave a far different story, telling The Associated Press that the government shelled residential areas and snipers deployed on the rooftops, killing up to 250 people. Rights groups say about 1,700 people have been killed across Syria since March, and an aggressive new military campaign that began a week ago has killed several hundred.
