BCLC delivers ‘good sales pitch’ to business leaders fearful of splitting haul with South Surrey

Cloverdale calmed over casino Alex Browne Staff Reporter

A meeting with BC Lottery Corporation officials appears to have calmed fears of Cloverdale business leaders that a proposed South Surrey casino would “cannibalize” existing gaming business – for now, at least. Brian Young, president of the Cloverdale and District Chamber of Commerce, told Peace Arch News Tuesday that Monday’s meeting – in

which representatives met with BCLC’s vicepresident of casino and community gaming Jim Lightbody and manager of public affairs Greg Walker – had provided assurances the planned casino would not offer competition to Cloverdale’s Fraser Downs Racetrack and Casino. “It was a very good sales pitch,” Young said of BCLC’s position on the new casino, proposed as part of a 200-suite hotel and convention centre planned for 10 Avenue and 168 Street.

“The BCLC are claiming the casino proposal will not take away business from Fraser Downs, and they say they have the studies to prove it – and that’s great.” However, Young issued a news release Tuesday on behalf of the chamber, noting that representatives still do not understand why the location of the new facility was chosen, “as it appears not to meet any of the criteria and see page 4

Surrey hosts province

Let the BC Games begin Nick Greenizan Sports Reporter

After 18 months of planning, the BC Summer Games are finally set to hit fields, parks, pools and tracks throughout Surrey today. The day of warmups and practices ends with official opening ceremonies slated for Holland Park from 7-8 p.m. Competition starts Friday, with medal ceremonies scheduled throughout the weekend, wrapping up Sunday around noon. “It’s all coming together, just a few small things to put together in the next couple days,” director of sport Tom Hastie, a South Surrey resident, said Tuesday. “It’s going to be great.” The BC Games will see 3,800 athletes from across the province take part in 21 events, with the support of more than 3,500 volunteers – most from Surrey. For those wishing to take in the action close to home, there are a bevy of South Surrey, Newton and Cloverdale venues, including baseball and rugby at South Surrey Athletic Park, soccer at Newton Athletic Park, sailing at Blackie Spit and golf at Hazelmere. see preview page 29

Search continues for truck driver in hit-and-run

Cyclist ‘flew through the air’ Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

Randy Duncan normally takes 0 Avenue when he makes the drive to Penticton. But last Saturday, for reasons he can’t explain, he chose 16 Avenue instead. That decision may have saved a White Rock woman’s life. Heading east on the thoroughfare around 11:30 a.m. July 14, Duncan could see a cyclist approaching in the the “very, very small shoulder” of the westbound lane, and a tandem dump truck coming up behind her. The situation caught the Victoria man’s eye because the darkred truck wasn’t moving to go around the woman, and it

wasn’t tempering its speed to account for the oncoming traffic that made a safe pass difficult. “I was watching this truck approach the cyclist from behind and my mind said, he’s not slowing down,” Duncan recalled. “I thought, where’s he going? There was no room for him to veer over to the other side of the road.” Just as the thought finished, the unthinkable happened – the truck’s front bumper hit the rear of the bike, triggering what Duncan said looked like an explosion. “The bike flew, and parts of the bike, and of course, the cyclist flew through the air. I thought, I’m going to find somebody dead.” see page 4

night at city hall. Even though it is slated for a time when many people are away on vacation, there is a good chance there will be significant participation. If there is, that will be a good sign that many people in Surrey care about the environment, heritage and aesthetics. If the public is indifferent, perhaps that means that the developers should proceed with their plan. There has been an increased and long-overdue interest on the part of the city in looking at the environment, before simply approving development plans. While some developers get frustrated by this, the net effect is a more livable city and homes that will retain their value. In neighbourhoods such as Sullivan and Fleetwood, where many mature trees have been retained, the communities continue to have much of their former look. Many new developments have enhanced the area. In others, such as East Clayton, where hardly a tree has remained, there is virtually no sign of what once was. While the new neighbourhood had most urban services, its heritage has been obliterated, and wildlife have been displaced. Development on the Bose farm can go one of two ways. It will be up to the public to let council know their preference, and then it will be up to council to make what will likely be a difficult decision.

news Neighbours oppose zoning amendments that would allow taller townhouses

Fourth storey a concern in White Rock Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

Opponents of a townhouse development proposed for two Roper Avenue lots say that if officials allow the applicant extra height that’s been requested, it will change the face of the White Rock neighbourhood forever. “The height of these townhouses is going to be four storeys high and will not esthetically fit in with the rest of the neighbourhood,” Gale Dawson told council Monday, during a public hearing for a zoning amendment. “There is nothing in the neighbourhood that is this high.” The proposal is for a two-building, sevenunit strata townhouse complex – complete

with “flex rooms” and rooftop decks – at 15374 and 15382 Roper Ave. The zoning amendment, if approved, would allow for site-specific heights, density, lot coverage and property-line setbacks. The extra height – an additional four feet – is to accommodate ground-level garages, a staff report states. Dawson was among five residents who cited the proposed height as a problem Monday. Two noted they bought homes in the area after receiving assurances from the city that heights were limited to three storeys. Merklin Street resident Ann Taylor-Robinson – wife of Coun. Larry Robinson – told council she is “dreading” losing the sunlight that will be blocked from entering through

her patio door should the project proceed. While council did not discuss the proposal Monday – in public hearings, their role is to simply listen to citizens – Mayor Wayne Baldwin did raise his own concerns with the height last month, during the June 25 landuse and planning committee meeting. For Baldwin, the issue was more about what the developer was offering the city in return for the four feet. “We’re selling our open space, giving it away to the developer, with no return,” he said. “There should be something coming back to the public if we’re going to be allowing the developer to go higher.” Stanton said the city’s density-bonus policy

provides that opportunity. He noted the proposed density is about half of what is otherwise permitted. The site, zoned multi-family, permits up to 50 units per acre. The applicant’s proposal equates to 23 UPA. Monday, Dawson asked for more information on an “underground water source” that has led to flooding issues in the area. At the June 25 meeting, Stanton explained the flooding problem was related to an older storm-sewer connection. The applicant would have to upgrade the connection if the project proceeds, he said. Council is expected to consider the zoning amendments Monday.

Airlifted to hospital

Man falls off roof Dan Ferguson Staff Reporter

A 64-year-old South Surrey man was airlifted to hospital Monday afternoon after falling two storeys off the roof of his house and suffering a head injury. The accident occurred in the 12600-block of 23 Avenue around 4 p.m. A Surrey RCMP report said the injured homeowner was conscious and alert after the fall, despite suffering lacerations to the back of his head. The victim was transported to the nearby École Crescent Park School playground for pickup by a BC Ambulance helicopter. The aircraft took off shortly around 5 p.m. and flew the patient to Vancouver General Hospital. The man was listed in serious condition the next day. One firefighter who was called to the scene Monday said the man’s injuries did not appear to be lifethreatening, but as a precaution he was being transported to hospital for an emergency exam.

Fine issued two minutes after meter was paid

Repeated parking-ticket problems the last straw Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

A South Surrey man is cautioning motorists who receive parking tickets in White Rock to take a close look at their notices before paying the fine, after he received two tickets that were issued before the time he had paid for expired. “I was livid,” Al Price said last week, of his reaction when he discovered that a ticket placed on his windshield the Wednesday evening was written up two minutes after he’d paid to park for three hours. “I paid for three hours at 8:19 p.m. The ticket was issued at 8:21 – and I’d put $9 in the meter.” Price found a similar ticket on his car on the previous Wednesday evening, July 4. That one was also issued before his paid time had expired, he said. City officials promptly threw the first ticket out, Price said, and he is confident they’ll do

Tracy Holmes photo

Al Price shows his receipt and ticket. the same with the second one. But he wonders how many other people are being wrongly penalized and not catching

the mistake; paying a fine they should never have been charged in the first place. “This is twice now. If they’re doing it to me, they’re doing it to all kinds of people,” he said, of those tasked with monitoring the city’s lots. “All it’s doing is driving people away from the beach.” City manager Dan Bottrill said Friday he has not heard the complaint before, but said he could understand how Price’s latest experience might happen. “I guess when you leave your car to purchase your ticket, I guess it’s possible that a parking enforcement officer is walking along behind you, looking at vehicles. You’ve left your vehicle to pay for your parking… so it’s possible in the intervening period of time that an officer looks at it and tickets you.” While ticketing motorists who have paid is not the intent of parking enforcement, “it can happen,” he said.

Bottrill said anyone who disagrees with a parking ticket can dispute it. Pay parking has long been a hot issue in White Rock, often blamed on driving away both visitors and business. Over the years, complaints have included that enforcement is too aggressive. In late May, a task force charged with exploring the issue – again – offered council two dozen suggestions for improvement. The report was referred to staff for further input, and council has promised to hold a planning session before bringing the matter back for public discussion in September. Price described parking as “a thorny issue with everybody in White Rock/South Surrey.” And while he and his girlfriend had been making a Wednesday evening jam session a regular outing of late, the recent tickets have soured the idea. “I’m never going down there again,” Price said.

Province’s best deserve our attention tarting today and extending throughout the weekend, some of the province’s top young athletic talents – in 21 different sports – will showcase their skills throughout the city at the Surrey-hosted BC Summer Games. For some, like former Games’ competitors Rider Hesjedal (cycling) and Dylan Armstrong (shotput), the event is a jumping-off point to even greater sporting glory – both Hesjedal and Armstrong will represent Canada later this month at the Summer Olympics in London. But for the majority of the more than 3,800 athletes taking part this weekend, the BC Summer Games will be the apex of their athletic careers – a memory they will carry with them for years to come, whether or not they continue in their chosen sport into their adult years. As such, these athletes deserve a fitting reception. They deserve to swim, run or play rugby in front of large, cheering crowds. They deserve, for one weekend – if not longer, in an ideal world – our full attention. Why not, for a few days, make these talented teenagers feel as though they’re at their own Olympics, too? So far, the BC Games organizers and volunteers are doing their part. The venues are all in tip-top shape – a new beach volleyball court was completed at Semiahmoo Secondary this week, and a new diving board was installed at the South Surrey Indoor Pool, to name but two improvements. And despite a recent editorial in this newspaper – which wondered aloud why public participation in large, civic events was seemingly on the decline – the Games has had no such issues. In fact, more than 3,500 volunteers – most from Surrey and the Semiahmoo Peninsula – will help ensure this weekend’s festivities run smoothly. At almost every turn, those attending the Games this weekend will see volunteers, from sport officials and coaches to medical staff to food services personnel. All have donated countless hours to making sure all the visiting athletes leave Surrey with smiles on their faces, regardless of whether they’ve won medals. Good on all the volunteers, and good luck to the athletes.

Indiana found that people surveyed after being ignored by a passing stranger felt more socially disconnected than those who were acknowledged with a smile or nod. For me, it’s been a bit awkward. You know the moment as two strangers are about to cross paths: will your fellow pedestrian make eye contact, or not? I will make eye contact, I’ve resolved. Still, sometimes my “hi” is so quiet I wonder if I was heard, and the smile feels forced. Easier is waving and smiling at the drivers who stop for us at crosswalks, not even knowing if eye contact was made through the glare on the windshield. When I do give out a confident, genuine smile though, it often feels like people are relieved, like I’ve given them permission to smile back. If they are also walking with a little one, that “hi” sometimes opens the door to exchanging a few pleasantries about our kids. One day, we will surely caution Elise to be wary of strangers. But by that time I hope I will have made a habit of greeting passersby, so as she gets older the carefree smiles will continue. And one day she’ll get a phone of her own, but hopefully will have learned to put it away long enough to notice the smiles and waves of others, particularly happy little babies.

letters Peace Arch News

No reason to add to stress Editor: I am very concerned about the plight of patients and visitors who have to pay parking fees at hospitals. I recently spoke to a senior who has to make endless number of trips to St. Paul’s Hospital in Vancouver and to the Peace Arch Hospital in White Rock. She had just returned to White Rock from a very stressful trip to St. Paul’s with her husband who requires medical attention. My sister passed away in St. Francis Hospital in Tacoma, Wash., and on the occasions that I visited her, I did not have to pay for parking and was even allowed free overnight parking. I see no reason why our hospitals here cannot provide parking if they have space, and why the government cannot fund patients when hospital parking is not available. Families and seniors are already dealing with pain and stress, without having the additional monetary challenge of paying for parking. Audrey Strong, White Rock

A better Mousetrap Editor: Friday the 13th was lucky for us. My wife and I attended Peninsula Productions’ most enjoyable production of The Mousetrap by Agatha Christie. At the end of the show, the audience was sworn to secrecy, not to reveal who dunnit. Years ago, a radio commentator stated that he had told Agatha that he had spotted a flaw in the plot. She replied, “Yes dear, I know. But no one else has noticed it, and I could not think of a way out.” We think we have spotted it, too, but cannot let on what it is, as we have taken the vow of silence. You should attend the performance and see what you think. Tony Walter, Surrey

Smart meters need review Editor: BC Hydro is spending $12 million to sell smart meters, but the business plan does not budget for finding safer alternatives or ameliorating negative long-term health impacts. So far, it’s been up to customers to do research into health consequences and privacy concerns. Customers who resist are faced with calls from BC Hydro’s PR machine – a well-scripted hard-sell, sometimes peppered with intimidation. The downside of microwave technology is naturally not divulged in the business promotion. Neither is the growing opposition of the medical and scientific community. An independent public review must be instigated to redress the smart-meter issue. Agneta Jonsson, White Rock

Arguments put forth by Coun. Larry Robinson in favour of security cameras on White Rock’s waterfront rile some.

Don Johnston

No solution for potential crime Editor: Re: The times they are a-changing, July 12 letters. White Rock Coun. Larry Robinson just doesn’t get it. Why does he think cameras can replace a beat cop? For security cameras to be effective, someone has to watch them and someone has to respond to the incident. I am a senior manager for a security company that does CCTV. I would certainly welcome the business opportunity presented by a CCTV system for White Rock. However, if my advice was sought as a security professional, I would certainly advise against it. CCTV – or what is now called remotely monitored surveillance – is intended to do exactly that, to observe. When an activity is detected, it solicits a response. If it is a criminal activity, then the police are called now, not later. This is where the value of CCTV lies, not after the fact – because the damage is done. Just ask the guy whose trailer got stolen (Thieves make off with trailer, June 19). Caught the thieves on camera, but the trailer is gone. So using a surveillance system in passive mode is not a good idea. As for deterring criminal activity, yes, but within controlled environments only – like the SkyTrain station. Public spaces makes it problematic. Every time the motion detector on the camera is tripped, someone has to investigate. And last I heard, there are no curfews on the promenade, making multiple false alarms a reality. By the way, criminals are not always stupid. Some will wear masks and give the cameras a royal salute, others will find blind spots. The only way to cover these blind spots is to use more cameras, meaning more money. And what happens when power or the Internet goes down? Simple solution to the latter, install your own wireless system like Surrey. Translation – more money. If council wants to use two or three cameras for a live view of the pier and Marine Drive, great. However, as a tool in fighting crime and creating a safe community, it’s going to cost a lot of money with little value for the price. And, please, no more comparisons with the U.K. That is a diametrically different situation. Those cameras were installed not to fight your average criminal; they were installed to fight a real and still-present terrorist threat. Darwin Nickel, White Rock Q It may have taken a little longer than predicted, but Orwell’s vision of a society where cameras and computers spy on every person’s movements is now on the verge of being a reality in our little town, half-way around the world from the most-monitored nation on our planet. Coun. Larry Robinson goes to great length in his letter to cite public-safety concerns yet fails to offer compelling statistics on the validity of CCTV in crime reduction. I did, however, note his implication that White Rock’s crime problems are caused by persons originating “north of the yellow line on North Bluff Road.” Further, Couns. Robinson and Al Campbell are

specifically vague as to who will be paying to monitor these cameras 24 hours a day, seven days a week, to control the subversive elements that they seem to fear. The looming question is this: are we to become little England, with a camera on every corner, watching our comings and goings? I reference the U.K., where the Big Brother nightmare of George Orwell’s 1984 has become a reality, with in excess of 4.2 million cameras watching public movement. Is this where we want White Rock and Canada as a whole to go? Do we really fear public spaces so much that we are willing to be scrutinized by cameras being used under the guise of public safety? The tone of the councillors’ remarks is: why worry if you have nothing to hide? However, an individual’s privacy should not be taken away simply because of the notion that it is in the public’s ‘best interests’ to comply with the government’s insatiable thirst for surveillance. We know it’s been 63 years since 1984 was written, and yes, the world has changed. But that is no excuse for the erosion of civil liberties, masquerading as public safety. Allow me to put this simply, Mr. Robinson and Mr. Campbell. Please show the citizens of White Rock, minus your fear mongering, where the real benefit lies in the citizens allowing you to install CCTV in our city. Without such understanding, your supposedly wellintended policies may be ineffective. Indeed, citizens should have the right to feel like their daily life is not recorded and watched by government employees behind cameras. It may help prevent crime and catch the minority of crooks, but it is at the expense of the government losing the trust of the vast majority. Steven Hughes, White Rock Q What a silly argument, Coun. Robinson. First of all, parents have been encouraging their kids to put coins, walk on the rails and take pictures as long as there have been trains. Is it a smart or safe thing to do? Of course not, it’s dangerous and stupid. However, to suggest that installing CCTV would somehow eliminate this stupid behaviour is just plain silly. Apparently, Peace Arch News has failed to report the massive increase in murders, thefts, gang violence etc. occurring on the promenade. That would be the only reason we should consider CCTV. Oh wait, that’s because there hasn’t been any increase in crime on the promenade. PAN did, however, report on a protest of the coal trains travelling on the rails (13 fined in train protest, May 8). Could it be that this is why BNSF is suggesting White Rock needs to increase its security? The real question is not whether we need cameras, it’s why do Canadians allow American coal to travel on our soil, in American trains, where it is exported in foreign ships to Asia where it is used to destroy our environment, with virtually no benefit to Canadians?

Beached whale starved to death A young humpback whale that died after beaching itself on White Rock’s shores last month did indeed starve to death. While starvation had previously been named as a contributing factor in the mammal’s demise – it was found entangled from mouth to tail fluke in fishing line – Pacific marine mammal co-ordinator, Paul Cottrell, confirmed Monday that other elements did not play a role. “There were necropsy results which confirmed that the animal died from starvation,” Cottrell said by email. The whale, a two- to three-yearold male, was found on White Rock’s East Beach around 5 a.m. June 12. It died shortly after. Word of the incident drew hundreds of onlookers and several media outlets to the sandbar. Veterinary pathologist Stephen Raverty told Peace Arch News

Reports confirm that the young humpback whale starved to death. later that month that the animal was “quite severely emaciated,” and that its wounds were consistent with those caused by rope. The line “would have interfered with the ability of the animal to normally use its baleen to feed,” Raverty said. Drag caused by the gear may also have caused the whale physical pain, he said.

Monday, Cottrell described the line as “pelagic longline gear,” which likely originated from the U.S. or Asia. “It is not Canadian,” he said. The whale’s skeleton is to be rearticulated and displayed for education purposes at the whale interpretive centre in Telegraph Cove. – Tracy Holmes

news Surrey staff asked to close loopholes

Review for pesticide bylaw Kevin Diakiw Black Press

Surrey’s environmental watchdog is asking council to close loopholes in the city’s pesticide bylaw by deleting exemptions from the legislation. Instead of executing those recommendations last week, council referred the matter back to staff. On May 23, Surrey’s Environmental Advisory Committee (EAC) combed over the city’s two-yearold bylaw prohibiting pesticides for cosmetic use and recommended the only two exceptions be removed. One of them allows Surrey’s use of weed killers on athletic playing fields. The city’s parks representative told the EAC the city didn’t use any weed killer in 2010 and only a litre in 2011. EAC member Bob Campbell said that if so little is needed, the switch to none at all shouldn’t be hard. He also challenged the notion that weeds pose a hazard to user groups, of which none has reported an injury from

Surrey’s pesticide bylaw will be reviewed by staff. slipping on a weed. “Nobody’s ever died on a dandelion,” Campbell told Black Press. The other bone of contention for the EAC was an exception written into the bylaw for “infestations.” Infestation is poorly defined in the bylaw, critics say, leading some companies to spray lawns at will, claiming it is infested. Under the bylaw, an infestation is “the

presence of a pest in numbers or under conditions that involves an immediate risk of damage to property or significant financial loss in respect of the use of property.” The EAC recommended to council that both exemptions – infestations and playing fields – be stricken from the bylaw. Council received the minutes from that meeting July 9 but

didn’t move to strike those portions of the bylaw. Instead, it has been referred to staff, which Campbell notes, has made its position on pesticides abundantly clear. “If they just want to find out what parks thinks, we all know what parks thinks,” Campbell said. “If that’s the process that we need to do to get it done, then we accept that. But (councillors) have seen these issues before, and we would have liked to have seen them react.” Coun. Bruce Hayne, who chairs the EAC, said the issue has gone back and forth a couple of times, but it was prudent to send it back to staff. “Parks realizes that there has to be some middle ground,” Hayne said.

Car Insurance. Protect yourself from smash and grab thieves. Summer is here again, and you’ll probably find you’re using the car more, for going on road trips, or camping or a day jaunt to your favourite beach. Naturally, items like sunglasses, camping gear, shopping bags and cell phones for example also find their way into your vehicle. But what happens when you get back to your car from a day of fun and find the window shattered, the door forced and items are missing. If this happens, what’s covered by car insurance and what is not? While your car insurance covers many things, it usually does not extend to loss of your personal contents in the car. In addition to losing your personal property, a break-in can leave you with the hassle and expense of fixing damages such as broken window glass, typical with a break-in. If you claim against your car insurance, you’ll be paying the Comprehensive deductible. But if personal items have been stolen from your vehicle, your deductibles may not end there. Goods such as cameras, sporting equipment and clothing are usually covered under your home insurance policy, not your car insurance. You would be required to make two separate claims, one on your car insurance and the other on your home insurance. Typical deductibles on car insurance can range from $300 to $500, while $500 is the standard on home insurance. A car break in can cost you, the

insured, $1,000 in deductibles and the hassle of making two separate claims. The good news is that there are now some optional car insurance policies offering unique solutions, like the Smash and Grab coverage that can be added to BCAA’s Optional Car Insurance. The Smash and Grab coverage waives the glass deductible on all glass claims and covers your personal property up to $500, again with no deductible. Of course, prevention is always better than cure, so try and avoid making yourself an easy target by giving thieves a reason to break into your car. Keep valuable items hidden from view, or better yet keep them locked up in the trunk when you’re away from your car. You should also always ensure you lock the doors and roll up all the windows before you leave. The next time your car insurance is up for renewal, speak to a BCAA Car Insurance specialist. They’ll assess your needs and help find the options that are right for you. Lori Taylor is an Insurance Specialist with BCAA. She can be reached at lori.taylor@bcaa.com.

Rose Woller aims to assist impoverished women in Africa

A crafty way to help

South Surrey resident Rose Woller works with Global Mothers, a non-profit business that uses house sales parties to help women in the Third World.

Dan Ferguson

Staff Reporter

outh Surrey resident Rose Woller says she got involved with the Global Mothers non-profit business to help women like Tanele, the young widow she met in Swaziland two years ago. Woller, a South African by birth, was doing charitable work in Swaziland, a tiny AIDS-ravaged country located between South Africa and Mozambique, when she got to know Tanele while playing netball, a popular game in African countries that is similar to basketball. After her husband died of HIV, Tanele was left to look after her own five children and two others whom she took ❝We want in, all on a monthly income to give value of $110 Cdn that she earns working at an organic to these honey factory. women, and The charity Woller was dignity.❞ working with was able to help Tanele, including teaching the young widow how to manage her finances better. The two women have kept in touch ever since, even after Woller moved to Canada with her husband. Woller is now the external relations director for Global Mothers, a Vancouverbased non-profit group that aims to help women in Third World countries by selling the crafts they make – online and through

in-home sales parties – similar to other home-party businesses that sell everything from beauty products to cooking utensils. According to statistics published on the Global Mothers website, women represent 70 per cent of the world’s estimated 1.3 billion impoverished citizens, many of whom, like Tanele, are caring for children who make up a large portion of the remaining 30 per cent. “We want to give value to these women,

and dignity,” Woller says. According to its online history, Global Mothers was the result of an insight by antipoverty activist Peter Morgan, an Ontario lawyer who became chairman of Canadian Food for the Hungry International (now FH Canada) in 2006. The Global Mothers website describes how Morgan realized FH and other charitable agencies were starting to use small artisan-led businesses as a way of

generating income for people in poorer countries. His daughter, Katie, researched the issue and determined that there was, as the website describes, “a growing niche market in Canada that had been virtually untapped by fair trade and not-for-profit organizations: mothers.” The result was the creation of Global Mothers, with the goal, according to its mission statement of “(improving) the economies of materially poor communities around the world by giving market access to products and support to development organizations that work with these communities.” “The problem for these women was not lack of training or expertise in production, but rather a lack of demand for their product in their impoverished communities,” the online account states. Woller is about to become a mother herself, expecting her first child later this year, and she says it makes the campaign to give mothers, like her friend Tanele, a life with dignity and adequate resources quite personal. “There’s a good cause behind us,” Woller says. “We really want to invite women on this journey with us.” For more information about Global Mothers, visit their website at www. global-mothers.com or email info@globalmothers.com

lifestyles Major Roger Prouse (left) receives the Cadet Instructor Cadet Lifetime Achievement Award from Lieut.-Col. Stephen Deschamps

Notice of Public Hearing - July 23, 2012

Contributed photo

Longtime instructor honoured by Cadets A South Surrey man whose military career began in 1953 has been honoured with a Cadet Instructors Cadre Lifetime Achievement Award. Major Roger Prouse (retired) received the distinction this month at the Vernon Army Cadet Summer Training Centre, where he served for five summers, including as deputy commanding officer. “It was wonderful to be honoured,” Prouse said after the presentation. The award recognizes a lifetime of exemplary service to the CIC and the Canadian Cadet Organization. Those nominated must “have gone above and beyond the normal scope of responsibility for their rank level.” Prouse started his association with the military as a cadet with 2290 BCR (101 DCOR) Royal Canadian Army Cadets. After 12 years with the BC Regiment, he achieved the rank of master warrant officer. In 1976, Prouse re-joined the reserves

and took his commission as a cadet instructors list officer and was promoted to lieutenant.

Peninsula princesses to gather Girls aged two to 10 will stroll down a magic carpet in their best princess outfits, meet Cinderella and be crowned with a tiara by a fairy godmother at the third annual Princess Party next month in White Rock. The event organizers aim to raise $15,000 for the White Rock firefighters charity to help build an â&#x20AC;&#x153;all abilitiesâ&#x20AC;? destination park for kids and grown-ups in the community. Local grandmother Myra Merkal originally came up with the idea of a party for little princesses to help support the local firefighters â&#x20AC;&#x153;shore2shoreâ&#x20AC;? cycling fundraiser. Each year, more girls have taken part and the event has raised more money, $3,450 in its first year for the Variety childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s charity and $10,200 for the firefighters charity in the second year, when 187 girls attended. Besides the fun of being princesses for a day, Merkal said the event helps teach girls to be positive role models. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The day will be full of opportunities for princesses to learn more about virtues such as kindness, helpfulness, thankfulness, friendliness and the effects that words and behaviours have on others,â&#x20AC;?

Summer enrolment on rise Dennis Page Black Press

What used to be a quasi-punishment for students who just missed out on passing their courses has become an increasingly popular way for students to get a jump on their education, as thousands of Surrey kids now voluntarily enrol in summer school each year. In 2007, summer school fees were removed after a B.C. Supreme Court ruling stated that all courses leading to Grade 12 graduation must be free of charge. That year, the number of enrolled students for summer courses in Surrey was approximately 2,200. For 2012, the summer enrolment is 4,200. Surrey now has the second-largest summer learning program in the Lower Mainland. “There has been steady growth in what we call full-credit courses,” said Surrey School District Assistant Supt. Dave Paul. Forty-hour, remedial summer school classes are meant to help students pass courses they did not during the regular school year. Full-credit courses are a minimum of 80 hours, with the most popular classes being

Caring for critters

A baby skunk nods off on the shoulder of Critter Care Wildlife Society intern Benjamin Petrick Sunday (above), during the organization’s annual open house. About 6,200 people came from as far as Chilliwack and North Vancouver to the event, which included rare behind-the-scenes tours of the south Langley orphaned wildlife rehabilitation centre, a barbecue and a First Nations storyteller. Funds raised will help purchase such necessities as specialized baby formula for the critters that arrive for care. Currently, those charges include about 90 raccoons, a handful of young river otters, fawns and baby skunks.

South Surrey filmmakers to create interactive project

Three of four trophies

Exploring the Canadian Identity

Big win for local actors

Alex Browne

Arts Reporter

wo young South Surrey-based filmmakers are soon to hit the road in pursuit of the elusive ‘Canadian Identity.’ It’s been a while since the topic – argued extensively in the 1970s – was a hot one. But that’s one of the reasons Alexandra Caulfield and partner (in film and life) Ryder Thomas White think the time is ripe for a new exploration. Armed with infectious enthusiasm, the SFU film-program grads are taking a new tack, involving both old-school and new film technologies, for their interactive project, Canadian Framelines. Travelling and living in a specially-equipped former school bus that they purchased last year, the couple will journey to communities across Canada where they will train participants in basic film-making workshops, before handing them old Super-8mm cameras and a cartridge of film on which to create their own brief visual essays of what it means to be a Canadian. “Part of the reason behind that is that it’s a very cheap medium,” said Caulfield, who Contributed photo grew up in South Surrey and graduated from Ryder White and Alexandra Caulfield with the converted school bus they plan to use as a Semiahmoo Secondary in 2006. mobile film studio while crossing Canada for their interactive documentary film. “Another great thing is that it comes in With the deadline to raise a projected $30,000 making films at the same time.” cartridges that are just over three minutes long. barely a month away, they’re continually adding The couple have not been sitting around A lot of younger people are used to shooting fundraising options, including a ‘donate-a-thon’ waiting for contributions.

Actors from White Rock Players Club production of The Lion In Winter took three of the four top acting trophies at the Theatre BC Mainstage festival awards at the Sagebrush Theatre in Kamloops earlier this month. Lori Tych picked up the Lori Tych Thespian bronze best actress statuette for best actress for her role as Eleanor of Aquitaine in the medieval black comedy, while Ben Odberg, as her husband, wily King Henry ll of England – the ‘lion’ of the title Ben Odberg – took best actor best actor honours. Winnipegbased actor Glen Surzyshyn got the nod for best supporting actor for his work as the king’s scheming son, Geoffrey, in James Goldman’s 1966 play, which takes an irreverent modern approach to the 12th century family power struggle over who will be the eventual successor to Henry. But competing groups – winners from each of Theatre BC’s regional zones – were all but shut out of other top awards July 7 by the winning show from Powerhouse Theatre (Vernon-Okanagan Zone), The Woman In Black. In addition to best production, Stephen Mallatrat’s ghostly thriller won best director honours (Matt Brown), plus awards for best sound, best lighting, best set design, best properties and best programme.

SURREY’S NEW RETHINK WASTE COLLECTION PROGRAM s

The City of Surrey is rethinking the way it manages its household waste.

Starting this October 1st, 2012, we will begin collecting combined kitchen and yard waste in new green carts on a weekly basis while alternating garbage and recycling collection on a biweekly basis.

Between mid July and mid September you will receive three new carts, one each for organics, recyclables and garbage, plus a kitchen catcher. If your household contains a registered suite you will receive a secondary kitchen catcher for your suite. We will be publishing details of our cart delivery route schedule in the local papers and on our website at www.surrey.ca/rethinkwaste

Each cart will be delivered to your curb side. Please bring your new carts onto your property but do not use them until October 1st, 2012 when our new trucks will come into operation.

Don’t worry if you’re away when your carts are delivered. We will be sending a crew to each completed route the day following delivery to move any carts remaining at curb side onto your property.

Just ahead of receiving your carts, we’ll be sending out your new Rethink Waste Collection calendar and instruction booklet, for services commencing October 1st.

For an instructional video on what to do when you receive your carts, please visit us at www.surrey.ca/rethinkwaste or contact our Waste Collection Hotline at 604-590-7289.

The Arnold Mikelson Festival of Art returns to the grounds of South Surrey’s Mind and Matter Gallery Saturday for the final weekend of its 39th year. The annual showcase for visual artists features the work of more than 100 new and established artists, spread out through the three-acre property (13743 16 Ave., 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. both Saturday and Sunday). In addition to painters, other artists on hand to sell their wares and demonstrate techniques include potters, wood and stone sculptors, glass blowers, batik-makers and jewelry creators. Among artists featured at this year’s festival is White Rock-born, Langleybased painter Jenn Williamson, who specializes in abstract and semi-abstract paintings utilizing such media as Italian plasters acrylics and resin – resulting in works that blend rich and subdued colours with refined textures and patinas. Also among featured work from further afield will be the calm colours and meticulous technique of New Westminsterbased west coast wildlife painter and photographer Wendy Schmidt, plus the Scandinavian-inspired art prints and cards of Kootenay artist Charlotte Erlandsson. First organized close to 40 years ago by gallery owner Mary Mikelson and her late husband, sculptor Arnold Mikelson, the festival has grown from a handful of artists to one of the largest art exhibitions in the region. The festival also offers free parking in the Ray Shepherd Elementary lot, just half a block to the west of the gallery on 16 Avenue. Refreshments are also available, and patrons should be aware that dogs are not allowed on the grounds during the festival. For more information, call 604-536-6460, or visit the gallery website at mindandmatterart. com

herrings. On the face of it, the situation is simple enough. A heavy snowfall has cut off Monkswell from the outside world – but not before we learn that a woman has been brutally murdered in London, and that the perpetrator may be among those stranded at the manor. Stage newcomer Laine Henderson makes a most distinguished debut as Mollie Ralston – owner of the newlyopened guest house – painting a fine portrait of a sympathetic young woman of pluck and spirit, very much in the British stiff-upper-lip mould of the time. When unfolding events evoke much deeper emotions in Mollie, Henderson conveys them naturally and believably. Another newcomer, Spenser Dunlop, makes up for his relative inexperience with an appropriately-accented and well-pitched performance as Sgt. Trotter, the youthful policeman dispatched on skis to check out a lead to the London murder at Monkswell. While a few hesitations betray his own youth, Dunlop’s overall authority and a surprisingly accurate grasp of the required manner of British officialdom mark him as a player of great promise for the

‘Delightful’ cast enhances show from page 26 future. Stephen Benjamin Fowler – not, perhaps, obvious casting for Mollie’s husband, Giles, a blunt, hearty, plain-spoken type – nonetheless does a fine job of playing him, establishing the requisite chemistry with Henderson and convincingly registering frowning disapproval of some of the more eccentric guests, particularly flamboyant young Christopher Wren (Everett Shea). Shea’s performance as Wren is quite delightful, easily winning over the audience with Christopher’s delicate sensibilities, ardent aestheticism and macabre sense of humour – as well as revealing his underlying agitation – without ever resorting to caricature. Lori Tych, fresh from a well-deserved Theatre B.C. Mainstage best actress win as Eleanor of Aquitaine in White Rock Players Club’s The Lion In Winter, has a field day as the “mannish” Miss Casewell, investing her with a wicked sense of fun and an undisguised contempt for authority, while scoring her share of laughs with a distinctively explosive brand of jocularity. Sam Gordon is – and has – a great deal of fun as the dodgy Mr. Paravicini, who shows up unexpectedly at Monkswell when his car gets stuck in a snowbank. His performance is a romp of extravagant accent, flirtatious

glances (at Mollie) and impish reactions. But the shaved head and goatee he sports evokes 2012 more than 1952 – far too exotic in this context for the kind of character Miss Casewell describes as looking “like a spiv” (period slang for a common black market racketeer). Deborah Spitz, as endlessly complaining pain-in-the-neck Mrs. Boyle, and Paul Kloegman, as retired military man Maj. Metcalf, bring their considerable skills to two of the more ordinary characters of the mystery – although, as with all the others, appearances are deceiving. Spitz does great character work in portraying a miserably conservative, throughly unlikable woman, while Kloegman uses his always-adept way with line and physical gesture to suggest hidden motives beneath the affable exterior of the old soldier. Olund’s set design, set decoration by Patte Rust and Leigh Burton, and a background drop of a snowy landscape by Rust (along with some well-achieved snow effects) do wonders in evoking a believable Monkswell. It’s too bad that Pat McClean’s costume plot – while making a general stab at the place and period – mixes eras and presents a few singularly odd choices; while offering none of the characteristically material-heavy men’s suits of the time, and nary a twin set or a cardigan for the ladies.

Hundreds set to compete Hundreds of top, young athletes from throughout Surrey, Cloverdale and White Rock will be competing at the BC Summer Games this weekend. Here are just a few of the athletes taking part. For a full list, plus venue information, visit www.bcgames.org

South Surrey runner/hurdler Jake Hanna will compete in three events at the BC Summer Games this weekend at Bear Creek Park.

Track star takes aim at Games Nick Greenizan Sports Reporter

here are some athletes – rare as they may be – to which everything comes natural. Every movement, every throw, every run and jump, all done with grace and ease, to the point where it seems they’re not even trying. Jake Hanna, for all his impeccable skill and talent on the track, is not one of those athletes. Instead, Hanna had to work at it. It’s a point driven home by one of his coaches at Ocean Athletics Track and Field Club, when

asked about how Hanna, a 15-year-old Elgin Park Secondary student, went from being an athlete with an interest in everything – from soccer to volleyball to lacrosse – to one of the country’s best hurdlers and middle-distance runners in his age group. “I have a distinct memory of him trying hurdles for the first time,” says Mary Korpach, who has coached Hanna for the last two years, but has known him since he was in elementary school and first signed up with Ocean Athletics after seeing a classmate wearing a club T-shirt. “He was, oh, probably 11 years old, and he

was doing the 100-metre. In the 100, there are 10 hurdles, and his first time, he knocked over every single one.” Hanna doesn’t dispute the accuracy his coach’s memory, either. “I used to just plow through them all – that was my strategy back then,” he says, with a smile. He’s improved considerably since, as one might imagine. In fact, the South Surrey teen is – one health-related stumbling block aside – in the midst of the best track season of his young see page 30

Tritons out of playoff race Nick Greenizan Sports Reporter

The White Rock Tritons have been playing better baseball since the calendar flipped to July. But sitting in 12th place with just two games left in the BC Premier Baseball League season, they’ll still be on outside looking in when playoffs begin later this month. With just two games left on the schedule – Tuesday versus the Whalley Chiefs and July 23 against the Coquitlam Reds – the Tritons sit with a 13-33 win-loss record. Only the top eight squads qualify for the postseason. But on the bright side, the team’s play of late has been better. This month, the U18 baseball squad is 3-5, and are nearly .500 dating back to the end of June. On Monday, White Rock dropped a 7-3 decision to Coquitlam, and that game came

White Rock pitcher Adam Shumka struck out eight batters Sunday in a win over North Delta. on the heels of two weekend doubleheaders in which the Peninsula team earned an even split. On Saturday, the Tritons opened with a 3-2 loss to the Vancouver Cannons before rebounding to

win the second contest 4-0, and on Sunday they split with the North Delta Blue Jays, winning the first game 4-2 before losing the second, 9-5. In Monday’s loss, the Tritons managed just two hits – singles from

Kevin Irving and Talon Van Horn – off Reds’ pitchers Jeff Heidema and Curtis Taylor. Matt Stephens started on the mound for White Rock, giving up seven runs in four innings before he was relieved by Connor Kenwood. In the Tritons’ win Sunday over the Jays, White Rock was led by starting pitcher Adam Shumka, who struck out eight over seven innings to earn his fifth win of the season. Catcher Evan Douglas and designated hitter Shaylen Buis each had doubles in the win. White Rock got another strong pitching performance Saturday from Alex Webb, who shut out the Cannons and struck out seven batters along the way. Leadoff batter Tony Tabor was a key offensive catalyst in the win, with an RBI, one hit-by-pitch and two stolen bases. Shumka, playing third base, also chipped in with two singles.

Developers including work-live spaces in new projects

Achieving the work-life balance Living in the Lower Mainland can sometimes mean a long commute between work and home. Many developers are making this easier on homeowners by incorporating worklive spaces in their new homes. A work-live space is usually a small space in a home with room for a desk and often shelving and lighting. It can be a separate room, or more often, a designated nook off of the living area. Treegroup’s Headwaters takes it one step further, offering a Business Centre that includes a conference room, Internet lounge and private offices. The homes include an area that Treegroup calls a Personal Hub, with a built-in

desk and recessed lighting. Another development that offers work-live spaces is Cressey’s MTwo, which include workstations in nearly every floorplan. Their Meccanica development will also include a space for working at home. Bluetree Homes’ developments at Kanaka Creek and Bishop Creek are also in the thick of the work-live trend with their bonus room in every floorplan that is perfect for an office. When your commute can be measured in seconds rather than minutes, you’ll have more time to enjoy the sunny day and get more done when you’re not worried about fighting traffic.

A stress-free buying experience

Coming home to Morningstar’s Kingston by Kerry Vital

When you’re looking for a home fit for royalty, look no further than Morningstar Homes’ Kingston on Coquitlam’s Burke Mountain. “This is one of the most pictureperfect projects,” says Morningstar Vice-President of Sales and Marketing Deborah Calahan. “Coquitlam has not had homes of this grandeur before.” The homes opened for sale on July 7, and already over 25 per cent of them have sold. With just 26 single-family homes in the project, they are already proving very popular, and Calahan says people don’t want to miss out. “There are no other homes like it,” she says. “These are the last of the big lots on Burke Mountain.” Morningstar prides itself on its array of options that they give home buyers, and nowhere is this more evident than at Kingston. With two different floorplans (Emerald and Sapphire), both over 4,300 square feet, the homes at Kingston are truly spacious. With an open-concept layout and tons of amazing features, there is no shortage of things to fall in love with as you tour the two show homes. You can start with the huge lots, ranging from 8,000 to 10,000 square feet. All of them have plenty of usable backyard space for playing or entertaining, and back onto a protected green creek space. The four-bedroom homes include windows from floor to the 19-foot ceiling in the great room on the main floor, letting the light pour in no matter what Mother Nature is doing outside. Beside the great room, the kitchen is a chef ’s dream, with a huge granite island and the option to include a spice or butler’s kitchen. The Emerald plan includes French doors out to the backyard, which Calahan says have been a particularly popular feature. The Sapphire plan’s door opens from the side of the kitchen, continuing Morningstar’s theme of offering choices for homeowners. The kitchen and dining area includes chic hardwood flooring, while the rest is carpeted, with the option to have hardwood throughout the living areas. “We added more personal choices,” Calahan says. “That’s not typical of a volume builder.” The master suite is seriously stunning, with vaulted ceilings and private Juliet balconies perfect for

This is one of the most picture-perfect projects,” says Morningstar Vice-President of Sales and Marketing Deborah Calahan. a glass of wine or a morning cup of coffee. The ensuite bathroom is fit for a spa, with a huge soaker tub and separate glass-framed shower, and a sparkling chandelier. “There’s a real resort feel in here,” says Calahan. “They really nailed it.” On the bottom floor, Morningstar again offers you options. The basement comes unfinished, but you are also able to make it into a legal suite or a deluxe finished basement. In every case, you are able to walk out directly into your backyard, making the basement a perfect place for a media room, play area or, in the case of the Sapphire show home, an amazing wine cellar. “We aim to make the home-buying experience smooth and stress-free,” Calahan says. “We’ve put together enough choices to make it your own while keeping it easy.” Homes start at $1.1 million. For more information, visit www. mstarhomes.com or call 604-469-1648.

Beauty is the name of the game at Morningstar Homes’ Kingston, on Coquitlam’s Burke Mountain. With stunning exteriors, above, and an openplan layout with a 19-foot ceiling in the great room, middle, you’ll have plenty of space to entertain. When it’s relaxation you need, look no further than the spa-like bathroom in the master suite, top.

OBITUARIES

KERR, Robert Irving Dec. 24, 1940 - July 14, 2012

Bob Kerr passed away in the Peace Arch Hospice from complications of lung cancer. Bob was predeceased by his parents John and Jessie Kirk. He is survived by his wife Anita, step-son Jody Shields (Crystal,) and his adored grandsons, Malcolm and Jack, his sister, Rita Erskine of Montreal and his niece Morag (Mark) Robinson of Toronto and her family. Bob was born in Renfrew, Scotland. In 1959, he moved with his parents to Montreal to join his sister, Rita, and her family. He studied Engineering at McGill and Concordia and applied his knowledge to large- scale projects for SNC and Ontario Hydro. He was known for his ability to cut to the heart of the matter whether the problem was in engineering or in life. His favourite expression was “let’s use a little common sense here”. This stood him in good stead during his U.K. assignment where he was part of the inspection team for the Canadian Frigate Programme. In 1989, Bob and Anita moved to B.C. After a few years working for large companies, he decided to start up his own business, which grew to include clients in across Canada, the USA and abroad. Bob was deeply involved in his community through leadership positions at Semiahmoo House Society and his church, White Rock First United. He enjoyed a good round of golf at Peace Portal golf course and trips with his golfing buddies to those famed Scottish courses. While his handicap had suffered of late, his lifetime best was an 8. He also enjoyed a fine glass of wine preferably in his favourite place, Maui. His favourite role was being “Boompie” to his grandsons. The family would like to thank Dr. J. Scott, the Palliative Care Team at Peace Arch Hospital, the nurses from Fraser Home health care and the personnel from Bayshore for their compassionate and dedicated care over the last year.

SURREY’S STREET TREES

Trees are thirsty too! Summer is here; the weather is warm; and the trees on your street and in your yard need water. Like us, trees need long refreshing drinks of water to stay healthy. Here’s what you can do to help your neighbourhood street trees and the trees in your yard this summer: 1. Water the trees twice a week. 2. Water thoroughly at the base of the trees for 15 minutes. 3. Water during the cooler parts of the day (early morning and dusk) and when it isn’t raining. 4. Water slowly so that the water has time to soak into the dry soil and reach the roots, instead of pooling on the surface. For more information about street trees, please call 604.501.5050 For more information about private trees, please call 604.591.4675
