Surrey says ‘no’ to RCMP bar
$400,000 ad blitz heralds new Port Mann Bridge
Council will recommend liquor licence be denied at new Mountie HQ by Kevin Diakiw
Transportation minister defends cost to promote tolled span by Jeff Nagel THE PROVINCIAL government is spending $400,000 on an adver-
tising campaign to promote the new Port Mann Bridge. The spending comes despite repeated assurances from the province that the $3.3-billion Port Mann/Highway 1 project will be fully paid for through tolls and that there is no risk large numbers of motorists will divert to untolled crossings to avoid having to pay. “I think it is money very well spent,� B.C. Transportation Minister Blair Lekstrom said Monday of the ad blitz, which emphasizes the time savings for users. “We think it’s very important that the public is aware of the opening of the Port Mann Bridge, what to expect when it opens, when it will open – that kind of thing.� Ministry planners have projected any diversion of toll-averse drivers to free crossings will be largely offset by an influx of motorists who currently avoid the Port Mann because of congestion and are willing to pay the minimum $3 tolls for a faster trip over the new 10-lane span. Lekstrom said the province is in the final stages of putting the tolling infrastructure in place, adding more information will be coming on that in the next couple of months, in advance of the bridge opening with an initial eight lanes this December. The ministry has yet to reveal exactly what will be used and where they will be Blair Lekstrom signs placed alerting drivers to the recommended untolled route via the Pattullo Bridge and the northeast stretch of the South Fraser Perimeter Road (SFPR). Westbound drivers will have to exit Highway 1 at 176 Street in order to take the SFPR to the Pattullo.

SURREY HAS opposed RCMP plans for a police pub at its new headquarters in Green Timbers Urban Forest. On Monday, Surrey council considered a liquor licence application by E Division for its mess hall at the new facility. Council said it will recommend to the B.C. Liquor Control and Licensing Branch the Mounties be eligible for special events permits only, and said E Division should do away with plans for regular bar hours. The public reacted angrily and swiftly after the media, including The Leader, reported last week that the RCMP’s new $263-million headquarters in Green Timbers Urban Forest would include a fully licensed 500-seat mess hall capable of serving up to 1,200 people. Political will at the local level was lagging on Monday, and before the meeting, the proverbial writing was Dianne Watts on the wall – the RCMP would not get council support for a bar. Surrey’s mayor said she didn’t like the idea. “I don’t think anyone has an issue if you have a regimental dinner, or if you have a party for veterans or retirement,� Mayor Dianne Watts said before the council meeting.

Huberman has been appointed to the National Film Board. Huberman’s name was put forward by Federal Minister of Canadian Heritage James Moore, who is also the Conservative MP for Port Moody-Coquitlam-Port Coquitlam. Huberman was contacted because of her and the Surrey Board of Trade’s work in trying to develop the film industry regionally and to provide more outreach to multicultural and international business communities locally and internationally. She told The Leader Tuesday she’s looking forward to the challenge. “There’s a lot of training, a huge learning curve and orientation that I have to go through,” she said. “Certainly to make connections, the ability to put Surrey on the map, to bring in industry, that was the whole point of it all.” She said she’ll remain as CEO Anita of the board of Huberman trade, but may have to reduce some responsibilities. It’s been a fairly recent mandate of the board of trade to connect with the film industry wherever possible, she said. “This we hope will enhance it.” As to whether this signals federal ambitions for her politically, Huberman said she hasn’t given that much thought. She said she hasn’t been asked to run politically either. Huberman has been appointed for a three-year term. Her orientation begins in September, in Montreal, and then the first meeting is in November.
RCMP: ‘They can do whatever they want’
Coun. Marvin Hunt
From Page 1 “I think the other piece (the permanent pub), they need to have a look at that.” However, as a senior level of government, the Mounties don’t need Surrey’s permission in the first place. Some councillors felt the application came forward as a measure of goodwill with the city. Coun. Marvin Hunt was amazed to see the application on the city’s agenda. “Why is it even before us?” Hunt said Monday afternoon. “I have a sneaking suspicion that this shouldn’t be on the agenda whatsoever. “I’ve never heard before of the federal government ever asking the local govern-
ment’s permission to get a provincial government licence. “The reality is, they can do whatever they want because they’re the federal government,” Hunt said. RCMP Cpl. Bernie Conroy told The Leader Friday the mess hall would be used for other purposes than housing a bar, including regimental dinners and veterans’ celebrations. He also noted a pub exists at the current B.C. RCMP headquarters in Vancouver (which is moving to Green Timbers). “Currently, the mess in Vancouver is open from about 3:30 (p.m.) to about 8 o’clock at night,” Conroy said, adding there are tight controls around alcohol consumption.
And if someone has had too much, officers can use a safe ride program where Mounties can take a taxi home for free. Conroy noted that the mess hall and safe ride program is paid for entirely by the RCMP membership dues, much like a legion hall. Still, Surrey council wasn’t sold on the idea. Coun. Barinder Rasode said mess halls have been a long-standing tradition in the military and RCMP, but says it may be time for that tradition to die. “As we know with changing times, those traditions change,” Rasode said. “I think now its time for the RCMP to evaluate that.”

critic Harry Bains called the advertising campaign a waste of money. “The bridge is being built, it’s been advertised all along,” he said. “How many photo ops have they had?” Bains said the min-
istry should instead be working to deliver the promised express bus service over the Port Mann Bridge – currently on hold due to the denial of higher taxes and fares for TransLink.

Compact Overdue transit plans unfairly abandoned homes a good start THE FRASER Heights Community Association
THE NORTH DELTA Area Plan Review, which is finally getting started, is a great opportunity to promote compact, groundoriented homes which do not have strata fees. The aging ranchers on 66-foot lots in North Delta could each be replaced by three or even four compact, attractive, innovative and affordable homes on smaller lots. These smaller homes would provide affordable home ownership options for first-time buyers; compact and accessible homes would give emptynesters a chance to downsize into a low-maintenance unit in their own neighbourhood without having to buy something that would require them to pay strata fees for the rest of their lives. Compact homes would provide more tax revenue for Delta. They could be designed in such a way as to blend in with the existing neighbourhoods better than townhouse developments and better than the 2,970 square foot homes with full basements which usually replace aging ranchers in North Delta. I urge everyone who cares about the direction North Delta will take in the next decade to make your views known to the North Delta Area Plan Review Committee, which is described on The Corporation of Delta’s website.
would like to express its concern and disappointment with the recommendation to cancel the proposed transit service improvements south of the Fraser, in particular the rapid bus along Highway 1. After years of paying a disproportionately large share of the region’s transit costs while receiving next to no investment in our own community in return, we are extremely disappointed that these long overdue improvements have been so easily abandoned. The members of our community made very clear at our recent meeting the strength of their feelings about this issue. As a community that will soon be surrounded by highways and the only tolled bridges in the
Lower Mainland, the disproportionate financial burden we will bear in support of the region’s transit system will increase even more. The inequities in transit funding and investments are painfully obvious. While we will continue to subsidize transit for the rest of the region through our property and other taxes, soon every time we cross the bridge we will be paying the full costs of the highway improvements that residents in Coquitlam, New Westminster and Burnaby will enjoy for free. How ironic that by being denied easy access to rapid transit we will instead fall back on our only practical alternative, the car, increasing, through tolls and fuel taxes, our subsidization of other people’s transit.
No one is bearing the brunt of the bad decisions by those directing and influencing TransLink more than the residents of Fraser Heights. We expect to see our elected representatives, at all levels, demanding the level of transit service in our region that we have more than paid our fair share for over the past decades. We further expect to see them fight the fundamentally unfair approach to funding which, among other things, will see only the new bridges in and out of Surrey tolled. Know that when you speak out on these issues on our behalf you have our full support. Know also that actions speak louder than words.
Students showed courage, leadership I WOULD like to publicly thank
Anthony Hope and Michaela Milne for their presentation on Thursday, June 21 at the Surrey Board of Education meeting. These two students demonstrated leadership beyond their age. Their presentation was articulate and very compelling on the issue of our district developing an anti-homophobia policy. It takes courage to stand in public and ask for something that may not be accepted by all and I congratulate them for presenting their concerns in such a professional and meaningful way. These students are two of many in our school district who demonstrate leadership and passion for their beliefs on a daily basis. We are very fortunate in Surrey to have students who step forward to make a difference in the many facets of their school community and beyond.

RE: THE PROVINCE’S anti-bullying
plan that includes a whistleblowing phone app. The idea sounds great, but anonymous reports create a great danger – how is a teacher or administrator going to investigate based on some phone app report? Also, the old rhetoric with no proof that “gay and lesbian students are more likely to be bullied and commit suicide” continues to be reported as fact. Beware of anonymous reports, especially with kids who notably have cliques. Set-ups are a real possibility here. Brian Rushfeldt

Permits the crux of suite problem APPARENTLY not enough has
been said, or more importantly listened to, in regards to the City of Surrey’s response to illegal suites. Letter writer M. Hajee states that homeowners need a permit to do any kind of construction to their homes. The problem is that most of these suites are built without any permits, thus no inspections and certainly no regulatory standards. That means the proper taxes and fees are not being collected and the inhabitants are living in ticking time bombs. The mayor, council and city hall refuse to act on reports of these illegal additions, opening

the door for more and more of them, without repercussion. Why is it that other cities have effective ways of dealing with this issue, e.g. Burnaby, where if you build it without a permit, you take it down within 30 days or they will, at the homeowner’s expense? This is not a matter of wringing your hands, city hall, it is about enforcement, which you are choosing not do. I am not a single voice, but I have a vote, one that will no longer support this mayor and council. Our neighborhoods are becoming unlivable.
attempt by students and others to bring about a standalone policy on homophobia in Surrey schools. Even more significant, a huge thanks to Anthony Hope, Michaela Milne and others for placing this so effectively on the agenda. As a parent and as a local minister at Northwood United Church, I am quite aware of the need for community institutions like the school district to be clear beyond a shadow of a doubt about the need for respect and acceptance of all people, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity. It is good to have a blanket policy against discrimination of any kind, but in today’s cultural climate, there are some things we need to be specific about because discrimination, intimidation and homophobia is unfortunately alive and well in our schools. As a local minister in a United Church which has tried to be specific about our respect and acceptance of GLBTQ folk in our community, we have come to know that “everyone welcome” is not enough. To move beyond homophobic behaviour and attitudes in schools, churches and the community in general, everyone needs to come out of the closet. Thanks, young folk, for leading the way.

Mayors reject offer of two TransLink board seats Transportation minister disappointed, says province won’t return full control by Jeff Nagel
THE METRO Vancouver mayors’ council has voted against letting its chair and vice-chair sit on the appointed TransLink board that controls the transportation authority from behind closed doors. The provincial government offered the two voting seats on the nine-member board this spring as part of a modest legislative reform to TransLink, but it didn’t go far enough to satisfy mayors who want more control over TransLink’s spending. “It would provide minority seats on a board that is still dominantly appointed,� said mayors’ council
chair Richard Walton, the mayor of North Vancouver District. Langley City Mayor Peter Fassbender, the mayors’ council vice-chair, said he may still take his seat anyway, despite the opposing vote of the majority of the mayors’ council on June 20. “I’m not happy with the decision,� he said, adding he believes using the two seats would be an opportunity to “get rid of this them-and-us attitude and start to build bridges.� The mayors’ council decision isn’t directly binding, but Fassbender acknowledged other mayors could seek a vote to remove him as vice-chair if he takes the
board seat. Several mayors are worried having mayors also serve on the TransLink board would lead to divided loyalties, compromising their ability to fight for taxpayers. Fassbender called that a nonissue and said it was a chance to improve TransLink decisionmaking while working for deeper reform over the longer term. Nine professional directors on the TransLink board have made all decisions since 2008 when a previous provincial overhaul of TransLink swept aside the old elected board of mayors and councillors. The mayors’ council created
at the same time only controls whether the TransLink board gets new or increased taxes to spend expanding the system, not the details of any expansion. The two mayors would also get extra pay as a TransLink director – roughly $60,000 a year. Transportation Minister Blair Lekstrom said Monday he was disappointed with the “disheartening� decision to reject the seats, adding the two reps would have had meaningful input. “I guess what they’re saying is unless they get their way, no other way is good enough,� Lekstrom told reporters. “That’s a tough bargaining position.�
He said the province won’t blow up the existing model and hand 100 per cent control back to mayors and councillors. “I can assure them that’s not happening.� Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts said she supported using the two seats but said many others saw it as a “Band-Aid solution.� Mayors must now press Victoria for more meaningful reform, she added. Walton said the mayors’ council will commission a study of the governance problem ahead of an expected debate in the fall on what to request next of the province.

Fundraising event to help brittle bone disease sufferer
by Evan Seal
NINETEEN-YEAR-OLD Mason Alberts is used to living with pain. For nearly 20 years, Alberts has lived with a medical condition known as Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) – more commonly known as brittle bone disease, a genetic disorder in which low levels of collagen in Alberts’ bones causes them to become weak and break easily. As an active two-year-old, Alberts once rolled out of bed onto the floor of his bedroom and broke his collarbone, the same injury his mother Erica Beckstead suffered at the same age. She has OI too. Sitting on a leather sofa in a neatly kept apartment in Whalley, Beckstead lists off the numerous broken bones and surgeries hers son has had to endure. “Mason has probably broken 10 bones, including having had major surgeries to both knees and elbows,� said Beckstead. “He broke his first kneecap falling down in Grade 7 and the second kneecap the same way in Grade 9. Basically he was in a wheelchair for two years.� Slowly rubbing his hands over the long scars down the front of both knees, Alberts explains how he knows he needs to be careful. But it’s tough as a teen. “I know I shouldn’t be doing certain things, but I do anyway.� Alberts has a passion for music and playing the guitar, an interest that helps keep his mind in a positive space. It wasn’t until May of this year that Beckstead found out she too had the condition. She had broken numerous bones herself as a child, but doctors were never able to pinpoint her problem. Since May, both mother and son have been travelling to Tacoma, Wash. to take part in a new research study to help build up the collagen levels in their bones. It was there Beckstead learned what she had presumed for many years: She and Alberts have type IV OI. After giving a presentation

Surrey battles back against wire theft
Black Press
ABOUT $7 million in damages to Surrey property in the last five
years has caused this city to rethink how it will tackle wire theft. Surrey says it spends about $250,000 a month
replacing all the copper stolen from street lights. Copper thieves strip the wire, bundle it and take it to a scrap dealer,
where they are paid for the commodity. Now the city is looking at replacing all its copper wire with alu-
minum, which is worth far less on the market, to stop the thefts from occurring. It’s estimated the
replacement will cost Surrey $10 to $12 million. The city is also considering installing
WE’RE RETHINKING WASTE. Surrey is rolling out the Rethink Waste collection program in order to divert more garbage from landfills. Find out about the program and what to do with your new bins at the following events: Newton Library June 27, 5pm-8pm North Surrey Recreation Centre June 28, 5pm-8pm Guildford Recreation Centre June 29, 5pm-8pm Canada Day Celebration at Cloverdale Amphitheatre July 1, 10am-6pm Guildford Town Centre Mall July 6, 11am-3pm Crescent Beach (outdoor) July 8, 11am-3pm Grandview Corners Shopping District (outdoor) July 14, 11am-3pm Fusion Festival at Holland Park July 21/22, 11am-6pm

technology that can monitor street light circuit voltage drops in a more timely way, so police can catch thieves in the act. Police made 35 arrests in 2011 related to wire theft, but there has only been a slight decrease in the number of incidents. A staff report with recommendations will be forwarded to council once the study is complete.
All new gas stations may require alternate fuel offerings SURREY COUNCIL
is pursuing a bylaw requiring all new gas stations locating in the city to offer alternate fuel sources. Those might include level-three electric vehicle charging, compressed natural gas, hydrogen, or propane. “Surrey residents spend over a billion dollars a year on energy, with the majority of money being spent on transportation,” said Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts. “We want to encourage people to choose alternative fuel vehicles, but in order to do that, we need to make the refuelling and recharging stations more accessible.” Over the past year, the city has consulted various stakeholder groups to gather feedback on the initiative, and further consultation, including a public hearing, will be scheduled.

Woman claims she was burned as a cup lid came loose at a Newton McDonald’s drive-thru NANSY SAAD is suing McDon-
alds after allegedly receiving serious burns from coffee spilled on her by an attendant at the restaurant. Last November, the Surrey resident was at the drive-thru at McDonald’s at 64 Avenue and King George Boulevard ordering a coffee. Saad says in her statement of claim filed in B.C. Supreme Court on June 6 that the attendant failed to affix the lid properly on the cup.
In the process of handing her the coffee, the hot liquid spilled on her, burning her thighs, genitals and abdomen, according to the statement of claim. The claim also asserts she suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder and body dysmorphic disorder (a mental condition that causes an obsession with body image or a disfugurement). None of Saad’s claims have been proven in court and McDonald’s has yet to file a legal response. The lawsuit is reminiscent of one launched by Stella Liebeck,
of Albuquerque, New Mexico, who spilled coffee on herself and sued McDonald’s in 1992. She had initially requested a settlement of $20,000, but the restaurant refused, offering her $800. She went to court, where it was determined the coffee was too hot (between 180 and 190 degrees Fahrenheit). She was awarded $160,000 in damages and $2.7 million in punitive damages. Saad’s statement of claim was filed in B.C. Supreme Court in Vancouver on June 6.

Break in rain eases stress on Fraser’s banks by Tom Fletcher B.C. EMERGENCY officials are enjoying a break from
heavy rain this week, as water from another weekend of heavy rainfall and snow melt makes its way down the provincial river system. Dave Campbell, head of the B.C. River Forecast Centre, said a pulse of water from last weekend’s rains is expected to cause the lower Fraser River to rise again by this weekend. The Mission river gauge is expected to decline and then rise again to between six and 6.6 metres by Saturday.
posit incl. de
Chris Duffy of Emergency Management B.C. said two weekend fatalities highlight the danger of high river levels, unstable banks and debris, and warned people to stay clear of streams. Edward Posnikoff, 72, was standing on a bridge that was swept away near his home in the Crescent Valley near Nelson Saturday evening. Mary Patricia Thibault, a 50-year-old Calgary resident, died Saturday on a whitewater rafting trip on the Kicking Horse River. The rafter she was riding in overturned, throwing eight passengers and the guide into the river.

Relief at Booster Juice Arrest of robber who targeted Surrey and Langley stores by Dan Ferguson ONE MAN has been arrested
in connection with a series of robberies at Booster Juice stores in Surrey and Langley this month. That’s according to Lisa Swift, who owns two Booster Juice stores in both communities that were robbed by a man who threatened staff with a knife. Swift says she was contacted by police on Tuesday, who informed her a suspect is in custody and is expected to enter a plea to multiple robbery-related charges in
Surrey and Langley. She was also told the man, if convicted, faces a possible sentence of three to five years. “I am very pleased,” Swift said Wednesday. The description of the suspect in each robbery incident was similar – a male Caucasian in his 20s, wearing a hoodie and a glove on one hand, who threatened the store staff with what appeared to be a knife. Security video footage of the Langley store holdup shows a suspect wearing sunglasses and a baseball hat with “Police” embroidered on the
front. The incident was one of at least three in recent days: On June 3, the Booster Juice outlet at 15161 Hwy. 10 in Surrey was robbed at 7:30 p.m. by a man with a knife. On June 7, another South Surrey Booster Juice store, the one at 15355 24 Ave., was robbed around 2:30 p.m. And on June 11, the Langley Booster Juice outlet at 20159 88 Ave. was robbed around 5:15 p.m. No one was reportedly hurt in the hold-ups, but the incidents “traumatized” staff, said Swift.
‘Distant, vacant stare’ for officer 62-year-old man likely facing charges after erratic driving by Dan Ferguson THE MAN behind the
wheel of a vehicle which other motorists noticed was being driven erratically had a “distant, vacant” stare when a police officer banged on the window of his car. Even with the
windows closed, the officer noticed a smell of alcohol coming from the man’s vehicle, which the officer had noted was lurching as the driver put his foot and off the brake. Langley RCMP Cpl. Holly Marks said when “the driver looked at the officer, he
appeared to have a distant, vacant stare and did not acknowledge the officer’s presence.” Marks said that the vehicle was on Glover Road, near 64 Avenue at about 2 p.m. on, June 19. The vehicle was slightly off the road in a construction zone, and was
lurching forward. Police took a 62-year-old Surrey man back to the Langley detachment where his breathalyzer reading registered three times the legal limit. Police plan to recommend charges to Crown counsel, Marks said.

Cloverdale residents picket on their corner
by Jennifer Lang
RESIDENTS asking for a crosswalk in their Cloverdale neighbourhood took their demands to the street last Wednesday, picketing on the busy corner of 168 Street and 57A Avenue during rush hour. Nearly two-dozen protesters â&#x20AC;&#x201C; who ranged from grandmas and moms to elementary school students and a toddler or two â&#x20AC;&#x201C; waived signs reading Keep our Children Safe, Safety First, and Give Us A Cross Walk. Many motorists racing past in the afternoon rush honked and waved in support, but didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t slow down much, inadvertently underscoring the residentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; concerns. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Every day you try to cross here, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a nightmare,â&#x20AC;? said Chrissy Burbank, a parent of two boys. Her youngest attends nearby Surrey Centre Elementary, while her teen goes to Lord Tweedsmuir, making for several crossings a day by foot or car. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re never sure if weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to get hit by a car.â&#x20AC;? Residents trying to turn onto 168 St. from 57A Ave. wait for a break in the stream of traffic, or wind up driving through the subdivision to 60 Avenue, adding to congestion around the elementary school at drop off and pick-up times.

A demand for a safer crossing
Protest organizer Trudy Hemrick said sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s grown frustrated by the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s refusal to install a cross walk across 168 Street at 57A Avenue, an intersection that connects pedestrians and motorists with nearby Surrey Centre Elementary. A count performed by the City of Surrey found just five people an hour cross the street here â&#x20AC;&#x201C; insufficient numbers for a crosswalk. City Engineer Amer Afridi, who met with protesters, promised to take further steps, such as performing another count at longer intervals than the previous one, and looking into adding a left hand turn lane and other line adjustments to slow traffic. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The crosswalk is definitely not an answer for this intersection,â&#x20AC;? he said. ICBC records show there have been 17 crashes involving vehicles at the intersection between 2007 and 2011; one involved a cyclist, another a pedestrian. According to ICBC, the most dangerous intersection to cross on foot in Cloverdale is 64 Avenue and 176 Street, with six pedestrians struck between 2007 and 2011. The second worst is 56 Avenue (Highway 10) and 177B Street, with five pedestrians hit over the same five-year span.

Flood could loosen derelict ships, damage bridges Province declares emergency to secure at-risk vessels as Fraser River rises by Jeff Nagel
BRIDGES, POWER transmission lines and other infrastructure along the Fraser River serving Metro Vancouver could be at risk if seven derelict ships moored at Mission are pulled loose by flood waters and swept downstream. B.C. Environment Minister Terry Lake intervened Tuesday, issuing an emergency declaration to use special powers to deal with the improperly secured vessels, which include the former Queen of Sidney ferry. A marine expert determined the vessels are at risk of breaking free of their moorings due to their poor condition, high river flows and flood debris that could put more strain on mooring lines. According to the ministry, the vessels could threaten downstream river traffic,
Student loan rules eased
Seven derelict ships – including the ferry the Queen of Sidney – are at risk of being moved by Fraser floodwaters. houseboat residents and critical infrastructure, including rail and highway bridges and other utilities alongside or crossing the Fraser. They also pose an environmental risk
by Tom Fletcher THE B.C. AND federal governments
have relaxed some of the rules for student loan repayment, part of an integrated loan program in effect starting July 1. The new repayment assistance plan allows for smaller payments for lower-income students, based on income, number of dependent children and the amount of student debt owed. The program extends the repayment time and may allow forgiveness of the original loan amount. A single parent with two children and an average annual
income of $30,000 would see the minimum interest payment on a $20,000 student loan decrease from $228 to zero. A student couple with two children, combined income of $50,000 and combined loans totalling $40,000 would see their minimum payments fall from $485 to $87. Premier Christy Clark said the new repayment rules will expand the number of B.C. students eligible for relief to 20,000, replacing strict income-based limits for loan repayment that didn’t reflect loan
size or number of dependents. “It’s going to be a really big benefit for people who might find themselves $1,000 over the eligibility line,” Clark said. “Just because you’re $1,000 better off in your gross income doesn’t mean it’s going to be a whole lot easier to pay everything back.” The new repayment assistance plan also provides for forgiveness of some or all of the loan principal if students have dependents and their income stays low over time.

disability can qualify for full loan forgiveness if they still can’t afford the full loan payment after 10 years. B.C. student loans given out before Aug. 1, 2011 are automatically moved to the new national student loan system effective July 1. Loan recipients are supposed to receive a new agreement with the terms of the integrated loan. People with B.C. student loans in default can qualify for the integrated loan program by making at least six monthly loan payments in a row on their defaulted loan or repaying it in full.

from the potential presence of hazardous materials, physical damage to downstream habitat and the risk of secondary spills if one of the derelict ships hit another vessel in the river.
Provincial emergency response staff are working with the Canadian Coast Guard and Transport Canada, the agencies responsible for shipping, navigation and ship-source spills. The province aims to recover costs of the emergency response from the responsible property owners. The region has seen key infrastructure fail before due to high water on the Fraser. Last summer, a BC Hydro transmission tower between Surrey and Coquitlam fell into the river, causing extensive power outages and forcing the closure of the Port Mann Bridge and other roads where highvoltage lines dangled dangerously close to cars.

Federal government announces a set of new mortgage rules
CHBA forecasts fewer first-time buyers The federal government announced new rules for mortgages last week, including changing the maximum mortgage amortization period from 30 years to 25. Finance Minister Jim Flaherty also announced that insured mortgages will only be available to buyers purchasing a home for under $1 million. “We want people to make sure that when they purchase the most important purchase they’ll probably ever make in their life, that they do so in a prudent way,” says Flaherty. The government expects that less than five per cent of new home purchasers will be affected
by the changes, but the Canadian Home Builders’ Association sees it having repercussions on a certain demographic. “The shorter maximum mortgage amortization period will reduce housing demand by eroding affordability,” says CHBA President Ron Olson. “For those who would otherwise have selected a 30-year amortization, it will take additional income each month to service new mortgage debt. Some potential new home buyers will no longer qualify, and this will disproportionately affect younger firsttime home buyers.” The changes will take effect on July 9.
residents don’t need to take their cars out as often. The opening of the Canada Line and the subsequent success of the Marine Gateway project has proven this conclusion, and Evergreen’s proximity to the new SkyTrain line is something of which Bosa is very proud. “The access to SkyTrain is just amazing,” says Avitan. Evergreen is within walking distance of several neighbourhood amenities, including restaurants and shopping at Coquitlam Centre. A Douglas College campus is also close by, along with elementary and secondary schools. If you’re looking for a bit of outdoor time,
several parks and Lafarge Lake are also in the area. The Bosa name is one of the reasons that people have been pre-registering before the homes officially open for sale. “Bosa has quite a following. (They) do it right the first time,” says Avitan. “People feel very comfortable with that.” The sales centre is at 3005 Glen Drive in Coquitlam, and is open from noon to 6 p.m. every day. Homes at Evergreen start at $265,900. For more information, visit www.bosaproperties. com/evergreen or call 604-942-2672.
Joining an established community
Bosa Properties brings Evergreen to Coquitlam by Kerry Vital
Bosa Properties brings livability to Coquitlam with their newest project, Evergreen. Located just steps from TransLink’s upcoming Evergreen Line, the condominium tower will be bringing more than beautiful homes to the table. “There really is something for everybody,” says sales manager Madonna Avitan. With 195 homes in a variety of one- and two-bedroom plans, there is a home to suit every taste. Whether you’re looking for a one-bedroom with a work space or den or a two-bedroom penthouse with two bathrooms, you will be sure to find the perfect home. Some of the suites are part of the Evergreen Estate Collection, which feature higher ceilings, expansive outdoor balconies (some over 600 square feet) and larger floorplans. “There’s some exclusivity about them,” says Avitan. A particularly impressive feature at Evergreen is the kitchen. Imported from Italy, the Armony kitchens include an Italian woodgrain and stainless-steel backsplash that lends a touch of elegance to the space, while the solid composite stone countertops are chic and modern. The stainlesssteel appliances are complemented by the dramatic brushed chrome lighting in the cooking area and breakfast bar, while the recessed halogen valance lighting in the cabinets makes it easy to find everything you need. The glass-laminated upper cabinet doors with their integral pulls offer plenty of storage space. Moving into the bathrooms, the solid stone countertops and porcelain tile flooring are quiet odes to luxury. The master ensuite features a gorgeous soaker tub or a walk-in shower with a full-height tile surround. The recessed stone vanity shelf in the tub or shower is just one of the many convenient little touches at Evergreen. The imported Armony vanity with dual storage drawers is another beautiful touch, paired with a designer storage shelving unit beside it. The recessed halogen lighting continues in here to illuminate the toilet, sink and tub or shower, and the decorative polished chrome towel bars and paper holders are yet another little detail that adds up to a beautiful whole. Bosa has included a great set of amenities in Evergreen, including a

gym, an entertainment lounge and an open outdoor terrace with a barbecue area and firepit, Avitan says. Owners are also able to barbecue on their own balconies. Evergreen is the fourth and final building in Bosa’s Westwood Village neighbourhood, following on the heels of Altamont, Claremont and Edgemont. These past phases have built up a beautiful neighbourhood around them, so buyers at Evergreen will be able to join an established community. “The neighbourhood has been planned for a long time,” says Avitan. With it’s fantastic location along rapid transit, Evergreen is able to take advantage of easy accessibility to the entire Lower Mainland. Communities located along SkyTrain lines often experience greater public safety due to increased pedestrian traffic, and life is often more environmentally friendly as

Futures Gold starts play at Softball City Scotiabank Canadian Open organizers hoping for warm weather by Nick Greenizan UNLIKE LAST year’s tournament, there
will be no rain at this year’s Scotiabank Canadian Open Fastpitch International Championship. Tournament director Greg Timm guarantees it. “We’ve done a better job of planning this year. The weather is going to be fine,” he said Monday, five days before the annual fastpitch tournament was set to hit the diamonds at Softball City, Sunnyside Park and Cloverdale Athletic Park. Timm is kidding about the weather, of course – though after last year’s waterlogged week, no one could blame him if he’d brokered some kind of deal with the weather gods.
Because of rain, the 2011 Canadian Open was a flurry of rain delays and rescheduled games, though in the end, most of them – including all the championship finals – were played. “It was a rough year last year, probably the worst in all our years, but what that does is it makes you resilient,” Timm said. “If we can survive that, we can survive anything.” With warm weather signed, sealed and – hopefully soon – delivered, Timm and his crew of tournament organizers have turned to other duties, as teams began arriving this week for the June 30-July 9 event. Teams competing in the Women’s International Division – including Team Canada – don’t arrive until Monday, and don’t begin play until Wednesday, July
4, but the Future Selects and Showcase Selects divisions, for under-18 and under-16 teams, respectively, hit the field Saturday. The Futures Gold and Showcase Gold, meanwhile, begin Monday. In the Futures (under-18) Gold division, 30 teams – including 13 from B.C. – will vie for the championship crown which for the last two years has been won by California’s Worth Firecrackers. Other teams in the running include clubs from Brazil, Venezuela and across the U.S. “The Futures Gold division is going to be very, very strong this year,” predicted Timm. “It’s hard to say how it might (shake down) until the teams hit the ground. We don’t know what Brazil is going to look like, or what the Venezuela

youth team will look like. We do know what the Firecrackers will look like though – they’re fantastic.” The three Renegades teams – the ‘94, ‘95 and ‘96-born squads – will also be in contention, as will Surrey Storm ‘95 and the South Surrey-White Rock Thunder ‘95 ‘A’ team. “That Thunder ‘A’ team is very good, and I think they might surprise some people,” Timm said. In the Showcase Division, three more teams from the host Renegades organization will hit the field, as will the Surrey Storm ‘97 and a pair of Delta Heat teams, the ‘96s and ‘97s. Other teams include California’s Nor Cal Assault and the Oregon Panthers from Keizer, Ore.

New head coach for Sungod swimmers Former assistant returns to club, athletes in the medals at provincial meet by Rick Kupchuk
A FORMER assistant is now the new head coach of the Delta Sungod Swim Club (DSSC). Kurt Murphy rejoins DSSC after a one-year absence to take over the top coaching position, a move approved by the club’s board of
directors earlier this week. Murphy served as Delta’s assistant head coach from 2009-11, leaving to take the same position with the Richmond Rapids Swim Club a year ago. “Kurt is a highly motivational coach,” said DSSC president Barry McDonough.
“Kurt takes no excuses and holds himself and his swimmers to the highest standard.” Murphy has held coaching positions in Ontario, Nanaimo and Langley before joining the Sungod group three seasons ago. He earned a Bachelor’s of Science degree in Kinesiology
from Lakehead University, and holds NCCP (National Coaching Certification Program) Level 3 accreditation. He has success in the past coaching able-bodied, IPC (International Paralympic Committee), and Special Olympic swimmers.
■ Five Sungod swimmers won a total of 10 medals at the AA Provincials last weekend in Victoria, including Noah Landry, who qualified for the AAA Provincials in the 200m butterfly. Landry, the race winner, posted a time of 3:08.05, a full second
faster than the AAA standard. Joe Kidd won four medals, taking the gold in both the 100m butterfly and 200m freestyle. He also snared silver medals in the 50m freestyle and 400m individual medley. Nick Kidd returned

Do your homework before buying or selling a house. Selling or buying a new house can be a complicated process and involves a lot of planning - and often a little ingenuity, too. Considering the size of the investment you have made in your house, it’s worth your while to take the time to learn how to protect it and yourself. Here are some tips to get you started: Show your house in its best light. Your house might be competing against others in the area, so you’ll want to give yourself every possible advantage. A clean house makes a good impression and shows that the house has been well looked after. It’s what buyers want to see. A fresh coat of paint and some light decor can revitalize the interior and make it attractive and appealing. It presents a positive image of your house and can help make for a successful sale. Stay informed about housing market conditions. Do your research and learn what factors affect the housing market and the prices in the neighbourhood. Understand how they would apply to your house, either buying or selling it. Scan the news, real estate magazines, the Internet and any other related resources. It’s also beneficial to consult with industry professionals; mortgage brokers and realtors can advise and assist you with pricing, market conditions, financial processes and legal requirements. Confirm that your insurance coverage is current. If you’re having an open house, ensure your home and

possessions are protected. Safely store valuables whenever you are having people passing through the house in your absence, and confirm that your insurance is both valid, and provides proper coverage for your house, personal belongings and liability. Protect your new home. Securing insurance for the home is usually a requirement with mortgages, so plan ahead and be prepared.

Tyler Ang threw the final two innings, in which the Twins managed only a single. Whalley made the most of just three hits. Connor Rogers drove in one run in the second inning with a double, later scoring on a Twins miscue. In the third inning, Rogers smacked a bases-loaded double to score Brendan Lim, Will Motley and Braeden Allemann. A day later against the Cannons, the Chiefs fell behind early when Vancouver scored an unearned run in their first at-bat. Whalley responded by sending 12 batters to the plate in the bottom half of the frame, scoring seven times. Rogers hit his third double in two days to drive in the first run, then Prentice singled to put Whalley up 2-1. Alleman singled to score another two runs, scoring on a bases loaded walk to Kyle McComb. Jordan McComb drove in the final two runs with a single. North Delta resident Yuta Kikuzaki was the winning pitcher. The Cannons scored the one unearned run on five hits and a walk. Kikuzaki collected five strikeouts, and lowered his earned run average to 1.08, seventh-best in the 13-team PBL. Both Whalley and Blue Jays are idle on the long weekend, but the Chiefs will host the Victoria Mariners in a rare midweek double header on Tuesday afternoon. Game times are noon and 2:30 p.m. at Whalley Stadium.

United back to .500 Defeats North Shore
by Rick Kupchuk SURREY United evened
their record in the Pacific Coast Soccer League (PCSL), thumping the winless North Shore Eagles 6-2 Sunday evening at Cloverdale Athletic Park. United improved their record to 3-3-2 (won-lost-tied) in the 12-team women’s league, tied for sixth place with the Kamloops Heat. Rachel Pelat netted three goals for Surrey, with Nicole Stewart notching two and Jessica Hadden adding one. Stewart upped her goal total to five on the season, tied for fourth in the league. Pelat now has four goals this year, seventh-best in the PCSL. Surrey will be in Richmond Tuesday night for a contest with the 4-4-2 TSS Academy, then will be against the league-leading Vancouver Whitecaps FC (6-1-2) next Saturday (July 7) at Simon Fraser University.

The
vaude squad Old-time variety shows will not vanish, if a group of active seniors has anything to sing and dance about it Q Photos by Boaz Joseph The Vaudevillians have been performing about 20 variety shows each year since the fall of 2002. The troupe of 22 regular members has been rehearsing in North Delta for the past six years.
by Boaz Joseph
A
lot of things have changed in the first 10 years of The Vaudevillians, but one thing has remained the same: The need to help others. Just like the first show in 2002 in Barkerville, where members raised $4,500 to keep an elementary school open, the seniors’ entertainment troupe keeps collecting money for annual bursaries for deserving performing arts students at Douglas College – to the tune of $72,000 so far. The elements for The Vaudevillians came from founders Fran Dowie, his daughter Susie Francis, and tap dancers linked to instructor Sandra Greene, who still helps with regular rehearsals at the Kennedy Seniors’ Recreation Centre in North Delta. Former director, current vicepresident and upcoming president Jim Trimble was also there at the beginning. Having spent seven years with Toastmasters – and getting comfortable in front of a crowd – he was the perfect Jim Trimble fit as master of ceremonies with The Vaudevillians. “I’m the only M.C. we’ve had. I think I’ve missed two shows in 10 years,” says the 81-yearold. Since then, it’s been all song, dance and comedy – a modern-day take on vaudeville stage acts of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Trimble says the calibre of the ensemble has improved greatly in recent years. Though technically they’re an amateur (and nonprofit) troupe, when they get on stage, they set the bar to a professional standard.
Trimble credits much of the improve“I Enjoy Being a Girl”; and ment to current artistic director Gordon • The Can Can dance – always an Long, a retired drama teacher from audience favourite.

Become a tree watering partner! Like our kids, our trees need nurturing in their youth. In warm summer weather trees get thirsty and need water to replenish their fluids. If you have a City street tree in front of your home, still in its youth, you can help give it a strong start by regularly watering it during hot, dry weather. Due to the success of last year’s program, we are again offering refillable watering bags to Surrey residents to water 1-3 year old City street trees in front of their homes. These “water smart” bags slowly release water into the soil over an eight hour period, reducing run-off and evaporation. Watering deeply once or twice a week is better for the tree and saves you time.
Get involved! You can help by requesting a watering bag for the young City planted tree(s) in front of your home. We deliver the bags in June and pick them up in September. All you need to do is fill it up once a week.

OBITUARIES
FUTER, Thomas Richard Born July 8, 1920 at Horn Farm, Exton near Oakham, Rutland, England; died peacefully in his own home June 18, 2012 in Powell River, B.C. of natural causes. Predeceased by his wife Mae in 1999, and elder sister Mary in 1990. Survived by his identical twin brother Fred of North Vancouver, and younger brother George of Parksville; by his daughter Pamela (Gordon Mitchell); and by the pride and focus of his later years his three grandchildren Tom, Mike, and Mary Mitchell. Tom immigrated to Canada with his parents at the age of 2 to Sedgewick, Alberta. They moved not long after to coastal B.C. where the climate was more suitable to an English family. He grew up in Cloverdale and Port Kells spending endless summer days at Whiterock roaming the beach and catching crabs. In 1940 he enlisted in the Canadian Air Force and commenced a distinguished flying career retiring after 30 years with the rank of Lieutenant Colonel. He was awarded the DFC in recognition of action over the N. Atlantic during the war. In the post war years Tom was posted to air bases all across Canada; and to NATO bases in Decimomannu, Sardinia, Italy and Ramstein, Germany. He and Mae approached those many moves with a spirit of adventure, making friends and making the most of what each new place offered. In the course of his career he flew pretty much every kind of aircraft that the RCAF operated, and, as a test pilot, some that they decided not to operate. He flew resupply to remote bases in the Artic, and Search and Rescue on the Pacific Coast. He was a jet fighter pilot, a test pilot, and a member of the RCAF’s early aerobatic team. He attributed his survival to having always flown multi-engine aircraft; no doubt he would attribute his death at the age of almost 92 to his body having been equipped with only one engine. He was a classic fly-boy possessed of the “right stuff”. Tom was a gentleman in the truest sense of the word. His conduct was unfailingly to treat others with courtesy and respect, always polite, always proper, and with a kind and gentle manner. All who knew him warmed to this easy and gentlemanly conduct. He died in the early hours following Father’s Day. Nothing could have been more appropriate because nothing was more important to him than his daughter and his grandchildren and he was able to be or talk with all of them on that final day. He was uncritically supportive of his family, showered love and approval on each of them, and, when necessary, not just with words but also with a flight home financed with funds from his “contingency account”, only wanting to know what kind of aircraft they had been on, and did they sit at the rear. The family would like to extend its thanks to the palliative care team that supported us in our support of Tom, and especially our thanks to Dr. Doug Toole, Tom’s M.O. since he moved to Powell River 20 years ago. The family would welcome a donation in Tom’s name to the Powell River Hospital Foundation. Funeral service at Stubberfield’s, Powell River on June 30 at 1300.
Sadly we announce the passing of our much loved mother, sister, sister-in-law, aunt, nana, cousin and friend. Born in Cloverdale B.C. and living her entire life there, Eleanor passed away peacefully in White Rock /South Surrey Hospice, on Sunday June 17th, 2012. Predeceased by the love of her life husband Jim, her parents Neville & Amanda Curtis, brothers Harry and Billy. Eleanor is survived and will be deeply missed by her daughter Catherine, sister Isobel (H.E. Ted Speer), sister-in law Edith (predeceased Harry Curtis) along with loving nieces and nephews Anne (Dave Marshall), Vickie (Denis Boucher), Susan (Glenn Berger), Blair (Hannah Curtis), Susan (Dennis Walton), Lisa (Byron Williams) and their families. Also survived by long time family friends Rita Robinson, Gail (George Fisher), Karen (Walter Wagner) and their families, along with other long time friends and also much loved relatives in Britain and throughout Canada. In lieu of flowers, donations to the White Rock/South Surrey Hospice www.whiterockhospice.org (for hospice use) or to the donation of your choice. A very special thank you to the amazing staff and volunteers of the hospice for the wonderful care and support they gave us. A memorial service will be held at Valley View Funeral Home Chapel 14644 72 Ave. Surrey BC on July 7/12, 2 p.m.
