Gas leak forces evacuations Kevin Diakiw Black Press

Dozens of South Surrey businesses were evacuated Monday afternoon after a natural gas line under 24 Avenue was severed. City of Surrey crews were working in the area of 24 Avenue and 160 Street when they hit the high-pressure FortisBC line around 12:30 p.m. The city was working at capping off a water main at the southeast corner of the intersection when the incident happened. Witnesses reported hearing a loud, prolonged noise prior to being evacuated. They described the sound of the leak from the four-inch pipe as “like a jet engine.” Fire crews closer to the scene said it was “deafening.” Employees and customers of businesses within a 1½-block radius of the leak – including the Peace Arch News – were ordered to clear out. Surrey and White Rock RCMP officers helped contain the scene, blocking off area roads – 24 Avenue, from King George Boulevard to 168

Drew Grainger said the evacuation was in the interest of safety. The gas discharging from the pipe was “highly flammable,” he said. “This is about as big as it gets,” Grainger told Peace Arch News of the risk.

“The potential for disaster is obviously huge.” If it detonated, the results would be “catastrophic,” Grainger said. Veronica Moretti was at work at Turner Geox in Grandview Corners when the leak occurred. The area was quickly overwhelmed by a foul odour, she said. “The smell of gas was way, way, way too much,” Moretti said. “We were all running around (asking) ‘what’s happening, what’s happening?’” Repair teams from Fortis arrived about 2:15 p.m. and the gas was shut off in about an hour. Power to the area was shut off shortly after. For some businesses, it remained off until after 6 p.m. The roads remained closed until about 5 p.m. Vincent Lalonde, Surrey’s general manager of engineering, said he was investigating how and why the pipe was damaged. “We always use (BC)1-CALL. Right now, we’re interviewing the crews to make sure exactly what happened,” Lalonde said. - with files from Tracy Holmes

A 16-year-old driving a Honda Civic suffered serious head injuries when he lost control of his vehicle in the 4300-block of 152 Street Saturday morning. Surrey RCMP said the vehicle was seen driving erratically while heading north on 152 around 7 a.m. July 28. After passing on the shoulder, the Civic crossed the centre line and collided with an oncoming Jeep Wrangler. The southbound Jeep hit the Civic’s passenger-side door. The driver of the Honda was transported to hospital, where he is expected to remain for several days. The driver of the Wrangler suffered less severe injuries, police said. Southbound traffic on 152 just before the train crossing at Colebrook Road was blocked off for approximately two hours. The investigation into the crash is continuing, RCMP said. As yet, no charges have been laid.

Child falls from window A toddler is fortunate to have escaped injury after falling from a third-storey window on the weekend. Police say the two-year-old girl was playing in a room on the third floor of an apartment complex in the 12100-block of 75A Avenue at about 2 p.m. on Saturday. Her mother went to check something on the stove, and the toddler climbed on some furniture and leaned against a screen panel, which gave way. The girl tumbled out, landing in a bush, and was taken to hospital where it was determined she hadn’t broken any bones or suffered any other serious injury.

Amanpreet Kaur Bahia killed in 2007

Murder trial set for 2014 The trial of a trio charged in what police described as the “brutal, violent” slaying of a Surrey mother of three has been scheduled for January 2014 – nearly seven years after she was killed. Amanpreet Kaur Bahia, 33, was found dead in a pool of blood in her Newton home in February 2007. Two of her three young daughters were home at the time, left alone with their mom’s body for several hours. Amanpreet’s husband Baljinder Singh Bahia, 41, Tanpreet Kaur Athwal, 42, and 33-year-old Eduard Viktorovitch Baranec

were arrested last year and charged with firstdegree murder. Their jury trial has been scheduled for Jan. 13, 2014 in New Westminster Supreme Court. In laying charges last year, police said Amanpreet’s husband was a “person of interest” early in the investigation, but it wasn’t until December 2010, when investigators from Saskatchewan provided police here with new information, that the investigation was advanced. - Sheila Reynolds

Street-light cell towers coming Kevin Diakiw Black Press

People with weak cellphone signals in Surrey may soon find themselves sidling up beside city lamp standards to get a better connection. The City of Surrey is beginning a pilot project with five cell providers (Rogers, Telus, Bell, Mobilicity and Wind) to use street lights for mini cell towers. Last week, Surrey council

endorsed a city staff plan to begin a year-long pilot project renting street lights to cellphone companies that want to install wireless transmission equipment. The first out of the gate is Mobilicity, which will be installing equipment on a light standard at 84 Avenue and 152 Street. The rental cost to the company will be $8,000 a year, along with a one-time appli-

cation fee of $1,200. “The carriers would consider the use of up to 170 street light poles at various locations throughout the city over the next three years, which would provide a strong and sustainable revenue stream,” a corporate report to council states. In fact, if all those 170 street poles were rented, Surrey would receive $1.36 million annually.

news Hutchinson cites safety, density in opposing zoning amendments

Split votes sideline White Rock projects Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

Two major development projects in White Rock have been sidelined indefinitely, after split votes on zoning amendments prevented city council from considering related development permits. Couns. Helen Fathers, Larry Robinson and Louise Hutchinson voted against both at council’s July 23 meeting. Had the changes been supported, they would have facilitated construction of a 20-unit townhouse complex at 1526, 1536, 1550 and 1556 Finlay St. and a commercial/residential project eyed for 15577, 15581 and 15585 Marine Dr. Mayor Wayne Baldwin – who, along with Couns. Al Campbell and Grant Meyer, supported the applications – described the stalemates as “interesting.”

to the community. Regarding Hutchinson’s density concerns, Baldwin said that the issue “has been discussed, beaten to death.” “As far as I’m concerned, the horse is out of the barn on this one.” Regarding the Marine Drive project, which was proposed to feature 10 condominium units and one commercial unit, both Hutchinson and Fathers expressed safety concerns with parking access directly off of Marine Drive. At an earlier land-use meeting, Hutchinson said the access “totally defeats” the OCP. “No new development was ever going to have parking accessible off of Marine Drive if there was lane access,” she said. “(It’s) totally against everything the city has been working toward all these years.”

She was also concerned that supporting the proposal – which had evolved from a six-unit residential/ three-unit commercial complex – would send the wrong message that East Beach is “dying as a commercial enterprise.” Stanton conceded that “it may be recognized that commercial units are a difficult sell for East Beach.” At council last week, Baldwin agreed that the proposed plan was “not ideal.” At the same time, it is “probably… about as good as you’re going to get. “There is a reason that this project has been through three or four owners.” Robinson said he could not support the Marine Drive plan due to concerns he has heard, including around the “angle of containment” and parking.

Whether it shuts down or keeps going under a different name, there will be no more Zellers store in the Semiahmoo Shopping Centre in South Surrey after next spring. On Thursday, the current owner of the store, the Hudson’s Bay Company (HBC), announced it will close the 64 Zellers that it didn’t sell to the Target chain. A widely circulated email to media outlets said that continuing to operate the remaining Zellers stores is “not viable, particularly given the geographic footprint of the remaining locations” and that they would be closed by March 2013. There could be exceptions, however. A few stores may stay open, but not under the Zellers name, said HBC spokesperson Tiffany Bourré. “Zellers is considering options for certain locations, including potentially re-branding some stores, which will result in certain stores remaining open for the foreseeable future,” she said. Bourré told Peace Arch News there has been no decision made about which stores would stay in business and whether the Semiahmoo outlet would be among them. Target bought 189 Zellers stores from HBC last year for $1.83 billion and plans to convert most of them to Target outlets. But not all: Target sold 39 of its newlyacquired stores to Wal-Mart and closed 28 others. The South Surrey wasn’t part of the sale to Target. About 100 people work there. In April, clients of the Semiahmoo Zellers pharmacy were told their files will be transferred to the pharmacy of the PriceSmart Foods store located in the same mall. Zellers pharmacy businesses in B.C. and Alberta, including all patient prescription files, were bought by the B.C.-based Overwaitea Food Group (OFG), parent company of Save-On-Foods, Overwaitea Foods, PriceSmart Foods, Cooper’s Foods, Urban Fare and Bulkley Valley Wholesale. The sale agreement also included pharmacies operated at Bay stores.

Border guards intercept White Rock gang members, smugglers SUPERMARKET NOW CARRYING GLUTEN FREE BREAD

BANANAS 49¢ LB.

Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

A former motorcycle-gang member and two men attempting to smuggle in 738 pounds of “kava” – a substance associated with serious liver dysfunction – were among those denied entry to Canada via the local border crossings recently. According to officials with the Canada Border Services Agency – who released the information last week – the ex-gang member arrived at the Pacific Highway office on foot on June 18 to inquire about his admissibility. He was turned away after telling border officers he was a member of the Bandidos Motorcycle Gang in Washington State from 20002005. The kava carriers were stopped June 8, after border officers found several bags of the flour-like product in the rear of their vehicle. According to CBSA, kava is restricted for import as personal use only; its products contain kavalactones, which have been associated with liver dysfunction; and Health Canada placed a stop-sale order on it in 2002. Further examination of the men’s vehicle found a larger quantity of kava concealed in a plywood compartment, which the

Investigation determined the men had imported an additional 1,000 pounds of kava into the U.S. from an unidentified foreign country. Both men – who had initially told the officers they were headed to a religious ceremony underneath the Patullo Bridge – were arrested and a total of 13 bags of kava with an estimated value of $37,000 were seized. Other travellers intercepted at the Pacific Highway border in June included: • Two gun-toting Americans who were turned away on June 26, after guards found a loaded but unchambered .38, with an additional magazine and box of ammunition, in one of the travel-

lers’ luggage. The one individual was arrested, and both the gun and vehicle were seized. Charges are pending; • A lone male who had boarded a northbound passenger bus without the driver’s knowledge and attempted to avoid detection at the border crossing by disembarking and then reboarding after the bus was inspected. A criminal-record check revealed that the man was previously been convicted of burglary with a deadly weapon and possession of stolen property over $5,000; and, • Three U.S. residents who were seeking entry to attend a spiritual retreat, after border officers determined one of the three was a member of a gang in the ’90s that committed violent acts. Criminal record checks revealed that he had spent a year in prison for ingesting one kilogram of cocaine and attempting to smuggle it from Columbia to Italy. The male was arrested and detained for an admissibility hearing. He was ordered deported on July 4; his companions voluntarily returned to the U.S. Impaired drivers were also encountered at the local ports. Of 20 such arrests last month districtwide, six were at the Douglas port and 10 at Pacific Highway border.

news Sexual assault began when victim was seven or eight

TV reporter admits guilt Sheila Reynolds Black Press

Former TV news reporter Ron Bencze pleaded guilty last week in Surrey Provincial Court to sexually assaulting a child over a period of several years. The sexual assault of a boy took place from March 2003 to December 2010, beginning when the child was as young as seven or eight years old. The victim was 14 in January 2011 when his mother discovered sexually explicit text messages between her son and Bencze. Bencze, 45, was arrested soon after and, according to an agreed statement of facts read in court Thursday, he disclosed sexual contact that had taken place “over a number of years.” The court heard he engaged in masturbation, oral and manual sex with the child in Bencze’s home in Surrey. The families were close friends. In a victim-impact statement read in court, the victim said he was confused and knew what was happening to him was wrong but did not know what to do. He said he knows it has affected him emotionally and is often frustrated. “It has been difficult to trust others or trust myself in some situations,” wrote the boy, adding he’s trying to live and behave like a normal teenager.

Time to enjoy Olympic moment n the days leading up to the opening ceremonies for the 2012 Summer Olympics in London on Friday, the international media had been gleefully chronicling the myriad of gaffes and shortcomings that have organizers scrambling and issuing statements of reassurance that all will be well. First it was the weather, cold and rainy then suddenly so hot power lines for a new rail service to the Olympic stadium were melting, resulting in delays and shutdowns. Ah yes, transportation, the eternal Achilles heel of every modern Olympics; if it’s not cabbies protesting on the Tower Bridge, it’s everyday commuters fretting through gridlock to allow Olympic officials free passage along exclusive traffic lanes. There are worries about security, as the private company contracted to make the Games safe underestimated the magnitude of the job, necessitating the deployment of the military. Customs agents are threatening to strike. And nobody is sure how much it will all cost in the end. Sound familiar? Two years ago, in the run-up to the 2010 Winter Olympics here in Vancouver, we were sweating many of those very same issues. And no one was more vocal in their criticism than the British media; one paper even girded their readers for “the worst Games ever” – perhaps as a way to lower the bar for 2012, should problems arise. But back then, all of the problems were forgotten as soon as Wayne Gretzky lit the Olympic cauldron at Jack Poole Plaza. Just as they were when the torch was set ablaze by seven young British athletes in London on Friday, the culmination of a fantastically visual opening ceremonies that included, among other things, appearances by actor Daniel Craig – in character as James Bond – and the Queen herself. And now, all the pre-Games concerns aside, it is time to settle in for two weeks of dazzling athletic competition, compelling human interest stories and national pride. Locally, we have even more reason to cheer, as four with ties to the Semiahmoo Peninsula – swimmers Richard Weinberger and Hilary Caldwell, weightlifter Christine Girard and soccer manager Maeve Glass – are in London as part of Canada’s Olympic contingent.

So far this week you’ve said… yes 74% no 26% 90 responding David Andrews’ front steps and cruising down the sidewalk, the secret of balance suddenly revealed, a discovery that would yield hundreds of hours of fun with friends – Albert, Dave, Gary, Gary, Robbie, Mark, Bill – on the streets of our neighbourhood. Now, the carbon-fibre Cannondale that the Rossi begat is also the source of much recreation with riding buddies. First, there was Max, a friend who let me slow him down on trail rides and road outings until I was usually able to keep up. Then came Hush, Ziv, Sumo, Detonator and Andrew. Mario, too. Each is stronger, faster than I. But when I struggle up a hill, I sometimes think of a story about my father that I learned only after Rossi entered my life, and only after my dad died. He was about 25 when he was preparing to emigrate from Italy and was working clearing brush in a town called Castello Tesino in the Dolomite Mountains. Word came to his family’s home that he was to attend a meeting about his emigration. His brother Silvano got on a bike and rode 50 km or so to alert him and to take over my dad’s job so he could take the bicicletta and ride back to attend the meeting that would propel him to Canada. I think of this story and I imagine him pedalling a heavy, old bike. I imagine the hairy switchbacks of the Dolomiti. I imagine a determined young man in dirty work clothes and worn boots pushing to his future. I imagine this ride as but one of many challenges before him. And I keep pedalling. And for that, I blame Mario. Richard Dal Monte is editor of The TriCity News.

Don’t reward Uncertainty for vice industries new business Editor: Really, why privatize alcoholbeverage sales, thus utterly foolishly giving private interests the profits from the sales of one of the world’s worst – if not the worst of – social vices? Every cent of profit from all sales of that poison, with a figurative demon in every bottle, should not ever go to personal-monetary-gain share-holders’ pockets; it, morally speaking, should go back into, for one thing, B.C.’s seemingly-lacking public health-care system. Indeed, it’s high time that our provincial and federal governments exhibited the warranted political will to buy out the entire alcoholicbeverage and tobacco production industries. Such products should be owned by the people, especially if scores of us – and, in particular, our young people – are going to pay for, get seriously ill and die from such products. Why should any private interest profit, and so greatly so, from such addictive vices? And while they’re at it, the governments within Canada should acquire full control over all of our natural resources – to be completely government owned and operated, with all profits and benefits going to all Canadians.

Not difficult to rule on trees Editor: Re: Future of trees up in the air, July 19. The slaughter of 332 trees – welcome to Desert City! It is just amazing to see that some people cannot see a “priceless jewel” – even when they stand in front of it. Columnist Frank Bucholtz mentions in his article that it is a difficult decision. I do not see this. An intelligent person does not even have to think about it. A stand of beauty which was growing for over a hundred years, apart from giving us oxygen is also holding the earth intact and prevents erosion of the soil bed. In California, the “developers” got rid of the trees. Eventually the houses were hanging off the cliffs. The rooting systems not only help to hold everything in place, but the tree canopies give shade and the roots absorb a lot of rain. By removing trees you get enormous mudslides. This jewel should be a park for all of us without losing one tree. And the name should be “Henry Bose Park.” I. Thielemann, Surrey (Editor’s note: After this letter was submitted, Surrey council rejected the housing proposal last week, sending it back to city staff and the developer.)

Editor: Late-councillor Mary-Wade Anderson was missed last week, as White Rock council defeated two quality developments by 3-3 votes, in spite of their being in compliance with the city’s rules and guidelines. One would have finally provided condos on three empty East Beach

lots in our struggling commercial area. The other would have provided more affordable homes across from the hospital, next to a substation, not an easy area to develop. Both would have provided a bigger tax base. I am all for scrutiny and careful consideration of each proposed development, but it’s only fair to play by the rules. The defeat on Monday creates huge uncertainty for any developer who wishes to invest in White Rock. These projects had gone through land use and planning committee,

first and second readings and a public hearing, only to be defeated at third reading. I am all for careful scrutiny of proposed development, but to defeat a project at third and final reading – in the face of little public opposition and OCP compliance – does nothing for business in White Rock. How can we expect business to come to White Rock with such uncertainty? Tie votes serve no one, certainly not the taxpayers of White Rock. Lynne Sinclair, White Rock

quote of note

Let’s start saving energy one step at a time. Let’s start with matters that seem trivial but really can affect the world if we are not efﬁcient.a Sophie Zhang

Digital Vision photo

Renewable energy sources – such as wind and solar – and conservation should be our goal, say letter writers.

Forethought energizes our future Editor: In a suitably fitting tribute to Queen Elizabeth’s Diamond Jubilee, the latest data out of the U.K. shows Britain is being powered by record levels of green energy from wind, sun and even waves. Renewable energy from these and other sources now accounts for 11 per cent of the U.K.’s electricity, putting the U.K. closer to its goal of obtaining 15 per cent of its power from renewable-energy sources by 2020. Fifteen per cent may not seem like much, compared to the 90 per cent of B.C.’s energy that comes from renewable-energy sources, but it’s a big step up for the U.K., where the aging energy infrastructure they have is largely based on coal and nuclear power. And although the U.K. certainly doesn’t have the kind of hydroelectric resources B.C. has, it does have considerable onshore and offshore wind-energy resources similar to those we have here in B.C. In fact, onshore and offshore wind generation was the biggest contributor to Britain’s increase in green energy. Compared to last year, wind energy’s contribution in the U.K. was up nearly 50 per cent, leading some to suggest that Britain is poised to become the Saudi Arabia of offshore wind. All in all, if this green-energy trend continues, renewable energy may ultimately prove to be greatest legacy of Queen Elizabeth’s long and successful reign. Yolanda Lora Vilchis, Surrey Q Saving energy. Isn’t that what everything is about these days? Or is it merely a pretentious goal? Personally, I think it is more of the latter. Canada’s energy strategy boasts of its dysfunctional plans, but it is still less energy-efficient than even China; among the world’s top 12 economies, according to the International Energy Efficiency Scorecard, Canada is lagging at 11th. Canadians waste so much energy every second without even noticing. For instance, I am a Semiahmoo Secondary student currently taking summer school in Earl Marriott, and every student in my class has complained that the

classroom is freezing, while the sun is shining outside. I distinctly remember my friend saying, “Why is it so cold in here! I thought it was supposed to be summer!” The air conditioner surely consumes a huge amount of energy every day. I have no choice but to wear thick jackets and long pants more suitable for winter. This is beyond ridiculous. It wasn’t like that in Semiahmoo Secondary; I never felt like I was studying in an igloo. So why not set the air conditioner at a lower temperature? There are countless things like this that could be improved easily without losing much, while gaining a whole lot more in the long run. Let’s start saving energy one step at a time. Let’s start with matters that seem trivial but really can affect the world if we are not efficient. Let’s try to come in first in next year’s energy efficient score card, shall we? Sophie Zhang, Surrey Q It’s often said that energy conserved is energy that doesn’t need to be generated. Given the high cost of building new energy-generating infrastructure, energy conservation is therefore clearly the least expensive way to meet any growth in energy demand. Unfortunately, energy demand in B.C. and around the world is set to grow rapidly over the next couple of decades, and energy conservation on its own is not going to be sufficient to satisfy that demand. That means we’re going to have to build new energy generating infrastructure here in B.C., just as they are in places all over the world. A big difference here in B.C. is that we have the great fortune to be able to pick and choose from an almost limitless assortment of renewable energy resources, most of which we’ve barely even begun to tap into. So, as we look to building new energy infrastructure to meet our future needs in this province, I hope we will avail ourselves of these incredible renewable energy resources, creating jobs while also keeping ourselves on the green path to continued prosperity.

New rules for byelection candidates Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

“Just food for thought,” he said. The byelection is required to fill the seat of longtimecouncillor Mary-Wade Anderson, who died June 26 following complications from a heart-valve replacement. In the interest of reducing

the cost of holding the byelection – projected at $40,000, with funds to come from the city’s contingency budget – Arthur proposed reducing the number of advance voting days to two, from the three held last year. Other “housekeeping”

amendments were also made. The bylaws received first, second and third reading at the July 16 meeting. That same night, Arthur was appointed chief election officer; and Maureen Connelly, who is the city’s new deputy clerk, was appointed

deputy chief election officer. Both of those appointments take effect on Aug. 17. General voting day is to be Nov. 3, with voting locations set up at the White Rock Community Centre, Centennial Arena and Kent Street Activity Centre.

Bylaws to enable White Rock’s upcoming byelection are now in place – and there are changes to the rules that those considering taking a run at the Tracey Arthur council seat need to know. city clerk At the suggestion of city clerk Tracey Arthur, council voted unanimously last week to require that DOOR CRASHERS - UP TO 78% OFF! 71% OFF! candidates have at least 1L ClassIIc saucepan with cover. 20cm/8” fry pan with 10 people backing their List: $92.00.

Program credited for drop in house fires

Jack Frost

Kevin Diakiw Black Press

A new education program created by Surrey’s fire department has cut the number of fires in the city dramatically, preventing more than $1 million in damages. Two years ago, Surrey’s fire department started the Homesafe Program, which saw a city-wide blitz on informing people in high-risk areas on how to prevent home fires from occurring. Since then, the program has resulted in a reduction in the rate of fires in those areas by almost two-thirds and has prevented an estimated $1.26 million in property losses. In addition, when fires did occur in homes that had been visited under the program, the probability of smoke alarms having been activated by the fire was increased and the related fires were smaller and caused less damage. In the last two years, the program reached 18,473 addresses, representing about 14 per cent of all singlefamily homes in Surrey. As part of the program, firefighters go to homes in person to discuss issues such as smoke alarms, home fire escape plans, children and fire, senior fire safety, and how to prevent kitchen fires. The result has been a 64-per-cent decrease in fire amongst the areas visited, and in the 13 homes where fires occurred, smoke alarms were

More than one-third of the fires were confined to the room of origin, compared to 11 per cent before. And property damage to the homes was cut in half. Statistically, the drop in fires represents a life saved every year. Surrey Fire Chief Len Garis is expanding the initiative across the province in his role as president of the B.C.

perspectives …on the Semiahmoo Peninsula

Settlement services aiding newcomers

Helping hand for new Canadians Boaz Joseph Black Press

Having no knowledge about student loans when she first arrived in Canada in her late teens, Harvinder Sandhu worked four jobs to pay her way through college. Although she spoke English fluently at the time, she might have saved herself years of stress as a newcomer if she had known more about available resources in her new country. Today, Sandhu is the one giving advice. A speaker of Punjabi who gets by in Urdu as well, Sandhu is an integral part in the Settlement and Integration Program offered at the George Mackie Library in North Delta. It’s a service run by Options Community Services for immigrant and refugee newcomers, giving then information about such things as local culture, the labour market and paperwork. And it’s expanding to South Surrey, Newton and Cloverdale Recreation Centres in September, with a Youth-Can program to assist youths aged 15-25 who may be at risk of falling through the cracks in the Canadian education system. Sandhu says newcomers are often given incorrect advice by friends and relatives – with a potential waste of time and money or misdirected educational upgrades in pursuit of employment. With a staff of 12-15 people who handle all sorts of questions in languages such as Arabic, Korean, Chinese, Spanish, Tagalog and Punjabi, the settlement workers – a term Sandhu admits is a bit vague – offer the type of advice that helps immigrants deal with a Canadian bureaucracy that can seem Byzantine. Settlement workers inform newcomers about such things as assistance programs offered by different levels of government and building credit history though the use of credit cards – which weren’t used

in India with regularity until about 10 years ago. The most common request settlement workers get is advice about finding work. It’s a daunting task when qualifications, language, education, resumes and Canadian employment regulations come into play. “I have to get to know them a little bit.” Often immigrants find that highly regarded careers in their old countries mean little in Canada, and that educational challenges seem insurmountable in the short-term. It’s no urban myth that there are Vancouver-area taxi drivers who were doctors in India, says Sandhu, adding many educated people formerly employed in respected fields end up in menial jobs. While those coming from India have their challenges, some are from places such as Pakistan or Somalia and come from refugee camps. They’ve had lives so unstructured, many of them list birthdays of Jan. 1 on government forms – meaning they don’t know when they were born. These immigrants are often advised to get used to making – and keeping – appointments. “I’m still struggling with some of them,” Sandhu says with a smile. The settlement service started in 1992 with a handful of volunteers. To keep the B.C. government-funded program running, Options has partnered with Progressive Intercultural Services Society (PICS) and SUCCES., and has served 3,953 clients from October 2011 to March 2012. Offered as an outreach program at Surrey’s City Centre Library and North Delta’s George Mackie Library, the service currently runs at the Fleetwood, Guildford and North Surrey Recreation Centres. For more, visit www.options.bc.ca

NEWS UPDATE: Changes are coming to Luxe Dog Boutique You’ll be welcomed into a relaxed, friendly environment upon entering Luxe Dog Boutique and Salon, located at 1558 Foster Street in beautiful White Rock. The salon currently offers full grooming services for small to mid-size dogs as well as a small selection of retail items for sale. If your pooch is less than enthused about a visit to the doggy salon, rest assured our head groomer, Jean Hercus, will go the distance to ensure your dog’s well being while in her care. Jean joined us in July 2010 with ten years grooming experience and a grooming instructor background. Jean has extensive experience grooming dogs to standard, historical and show ring requirements. She will talk with you thoroughly ahead of time and do her best to meet any special requests you may have. Your dog will be attended to in a calm, stress free environment putting both you and your dog at ease. Luxe Dog Boutique will have your canine looking great and feeling happier than ever! A large number of dog owning seniors live in the South Surrey/White Rock area, many of whom have contributed to the community for a number of years in various ways. To show our appreciation to these individuals, Luxe Dog Boutique and Salon has designated every Wednesday as Seniors Discount Day on which the salon offers a 10% discount on pre-booked full grooming services. In addition to our current grooming services, we plan to commence offering full grooming services in the fall of 2012 for large size dogs, such as golden retrievers, labrador retrievers, boxers or other dog breeds of similar size. We will also introduce puppy and young dog basic obedience classes starting in the fall of 2012. Classes will be taught by Sue Oldridge, owner of Luxe Dog Boutique and Salon. Sue has had a love for dogs her whole life and has owned various breeds over the years. She recently acquired a German Shepherd puppy after the loss of her long-time canine companion, Sisqo to cancer. Sue started Luxe Dog Boutique and Salon in 2008 and spent every weekend at the shop assisting with bathing, nail trimming, ear cleaning and basic grooming care. She learned a lot about dog behaviour and body language. A desire to continue to expand her knowledge of dogs and her ability to train them, led to enrollment at one of only three PCTIA registered Canine Trainer schools in BC. Sue will be graduating as a Certiﬁed Canine Trainer at the end of September 2012. As well as grooming services, the boutique currently offers a selection of organic treats, clothing and accessories for the discriminating Diva or the rough and ready Rover. In the coming months, Luxe Dog Boutique will transition to grooming services and basic obedience training with a small selection of retail items. The majority of the current product selection (toys, treats, clothing, leashes, collars, harnesses), will be expanded upon to include a varied selection of food, and training devices and moved to a second location. Please check for updates on these services and to read more about this exciting news on our website: www.luxedog.ca (launching end of July 2012)

Golf event seeks help

Star of the Sea Parish’s fourth annual golf tournament is set to tee off in September, and in an attempt to raise more money for a worthy cause, organizers are seeking a title sponsor. “We haven’t had sponsors in the past, and all the money was raised by our parishioners, so with the various sponsorship packages

we’re offering now, we hope to be able to raise even more,” said Star of the Sea’s golf committee chair Mario Ylanan of the event, which is planned for Sept. 8 at Surrey’s Eaglequest Coyote Creek Golf Course. This year, funds will benefit the Star of the Sea’s King’s Banquet Soup Kitchen, which runs Tuesdays at the church (1153 Fir St.).

The tournament is still accepting registrations for those wishing to golf. Last year’s tournament had 78 golfers, and Ylanan said they’re hoping for at least 100 this time around. For more information, email starofthesea. golf@gmail.com or call the parish office at 604-531-5739.

‘The work is very rewarding’

Alzheimer Society needs volunteers If you possess excellent listening and empathetic skills, a knowledge of dementia or a willingness to learn, the non-profit Alzheimer Society for White Rock, North Delta and Central Surrey would like to hear from you. It would also help if you have facilitation skills or a willingness to learn and experience in formal or informal caregiving. The society needs volunteers who can facilitate local support groups that meet each month. Training is provided, and a one-year commitment is required. “The work is very rewarding,” says local volunteer support group facilitator Doris Flumer. “I often feel I get far more back in return than I give.” The groups are based on the philosophy that people with similar issues are in a unique position to offer support to others, the society says. “I am no longer a lonely traveller but have

connected with others with similar experiences and continue to learn on my journey” says caregiver Dorothy Gibbs. “It gave me a new lease on life.” Volunteers are a priceless asset, says Avalon Tournier, the society’s regional support and education coordinator for White Rock, North Delta and Central Surrey. “They are absolutely invaluable to our team and are a big reason why we are able to meet the growing need for support and education for families living with dementia,” Tournier says. An estimated one in 11 B.C. residents over 65 already live with Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias. For more information on the volunteer positions, contact Tournier at 604-5410606 or atournier@ alzheimerbc.org. Residents can get more information on Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias by visiting www. alzheimerbc.org.

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

White Rockâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Beaches, West Beach and East Beach, and Crescent Beach are great for walking along the water or even practicing yoga. Yoga promotes joint ďŹ&#x201A;exibility, low blood pressure, proper blood circulation and can help clear the mind for rest. And for those days when the weather is just not as summery as hoped, White Rock Recreation Centre offers a slew of activities

and stretch classes and biking classes. There is even yoga available during the week for those who prefer to practice indoors. If itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the mind that needs exercising, why not try a game of Bridge or Cribbage at the Kent Street Activity Centre? With games going on throughout the week, there is an opportunity to join in for people with busy schedules. Other activities including snooker games, table tennis, dining club and arts and crafts. South Surrey Recreation Centre is also home to a slew of fun activities for Peninsula seniors, including Zumba, badminton, Pickle Ball and pilates.

Try a new exercise regime For seniors who think they won’t be able to handle traditional exercise, chair exercises or modiﬁed pilates can be effective, even for those with trouble walking or standing for extended periods of time. To get started, all one needs is some loose-ﬁtting clothing and a chair. Begin by doing some stretching movements of the neck, arms and legs. Rotate the head left

and right and in circles to stretch the neck and back muscles. Lift arms over the head and slowly drop down to the sides of the body to stretch arms and back muscles. Lift and lower the legs a few times to warm them up. To begin exercises, start slowly and gradually build up repetitions. Exercises to try include boxing or punching into the air, arm circles, and arm curls. For the legs,

Art

work the back and front of the legs. Kick the legs out in front of the body several times. Hold legs parallel to the floor (as much as possible) and do leg crosses. Put feet flat on the floor and lift up the heels. Keep feet on the floor and push down to work the buttocks and the top of the thighs. Remember to always consult a doctor before beginning any type of exercise regime.

11/12 All-Stars lose to Hastings in championship game

White Rock second at provincials Nick Greenizan Sports Reporter

Prior to leaving for Trail, host site of the B.C. Little League Provincial Championships, White Rock 11/12 All-Stars coach John Hogg said that Vancouver’s Hastings Little League were going to be tough to beat. Turns out he was right. And while the White Rock/South Surrey crew did in fact get the better of Hastings once – beating them 7-6 on July 24 in round-robin action – the Vancouver team won the most important game of the tournament, beating White Rock 20-0 in Sunday’s championship game. “The boys had a great run,” said White Rock coach John Hogg. “But Hastings is just such a strong team – they hit the ball so well… we tip our hats to them.”

With the provincial title, Hastings advances to Little League national championships in Edmonton. The winner of that tournament will go on to Williamsport, Penn. where they’ll represent Canada at the Little League World Series. White Rock was aiming to advance to nationals for the third time since 2007; WRSSBA teams played in the World Series in both ’07 and ’08. In Trail, White Rock went 5-2 over the week-long tournament, losing to only Forest Hills (North Vancouver) 10-8 last Wednesday and then to Hastings in the goldmedal matchup. They opened round-robin play July 21 with a 6-3 win over the hosts from Trail, then beat Dunbar, 13-0; Beacon Hill, 6-3; and Hastings by one run. In that game, which at the time

ABBOTSFORD ABB AB BBOTSFORD INTERNATIONAL INTERNATIONA AL

improved White Rock’s record to 4-0, the Peninsula squad jumped out to a 4-0 first-inning lead on a Perrin Finley grand slam, and after Hastings trimmed the lead to 4-2, White Rock added two more runs to take a four-run lead heading

into the sixth and final frame. In the top of the sixth, Hastings scored four runs to tie the game, but White Rock responded in the bottom of the inning when Stephen Lin – who started the inning with a single and moved to third on

a passed ball and another single from Shane Killoran – scored on a wild pitch with Jackson Hogg at the plate. But just as White Rock got the upper hand early in that game thanks to Finley’s home-run, Hastings jumped out a big lead in Sunday’s final that was too big for White Rock to overcome. Hastings plated nine runs in the first inning Sunday, added another in the second, and had eight more in the third. The game was over after four innings on account of the mercy rule. White Rock, which beat Beacon Hill in the semifinal to advance to Sunday’s big game, managed just two hits in the game, as Hastings pitcher Cole Dalla-Zanna struck out eight batters and did not give up a walk. - with files from Trail Daily Times

Loved and admired by many, Bob passed away peacefully with Pat & his two daughters at his side after a valiant six-year struggle with liposarcoma. Bob had a passion for numerous hobbies; namely playing guitar, singing, golfing, car restoration, camping, & vacationing in Indio, California. After his own experience with long hospital stays, Bob was inspired to entertain & share his music with others. His unique & heartfelt “Man in Black” tribute to Johnny Cash was Bob’s way of brightening other people’s lives & giving back to others during his illness. His zest for life, sense of humor and kind soul stayed with him right through to his last hours by extending his love to the people closest to him, talking, laughing, crying, singing and remembering. The family wishes to extend heartfelt thanks to Dr. Rona Cheifetz and the team at the BC Cancer Agency, as well as the Palliative Care team at VGH, especially Dr. Jyothi and RN, Annaliese. A celebration of Bob’s life will be held on Friday, August 3 at Valley View Memorial Gardens: 14660 72 Avenue, Surrey; viewing at 9 am & service at 10am. In lieu of flowers, donations to: sarcomahelp.org/donations are appreciated. “…and I’ll be waiting on the far side banks of Jordan…”

In 1948 he was hired by Trans Canada Airlines, which later became Air Canada, working for a short time at London’s Heathrow Airport, returning to Montreal Dorval Airport where he worked until retirement in 1981.

After a long life, well-lived and well-loved, Lora Saunders passed away peacefully on July 20, 2012 at age 89 in White Rock, B.C. She was the second of five children born to Amos and Nellie Hartwell, in her great-grandparents’ farmhouse in Hatley, Que. She grew up in a pastoral setting and was an excellent student, earning the province’s second highest academic marks in her senior high school year. She worked as a stenographer for Rogers Sugar, Windsor Salt, and CIL Paint, before enlisting in the Women’s Royal Naval Service (WRENS) in World War Two, where she served for 2½ years in the Identification Unit. In Halifax, she met and married Navy gunner Arthur Saunders and, when the war was over, he brought her to Vancouver. In 1951, they moved to White Rock, raising five children and welcoming many others to the old house on the hill. Predeceased by Art in 1989, she is survived and lovingly remembered by her children Marilyn, Rick (Sheila), Randy (Susan), Daniel (Nonie), Tom (Pamela) - nine grandchildren and ten great-grandchildren. She was one of the kindest, gentlest, most-caring people, and we were incredibly blessed to have her as long as we did. Her gentle influence was felt by all who knew her. Special thanks to the wonderful extended-care staff at Weatherby and Dr. Al Hogg Pavilions. A Celebration of Life will be held Aug. 11, 2-4 p.m., at Hazelmere RV Park, 188438th Ave., Surrey. Donations to the Peace Arch Hospital Foundation in lieu of flowers.

VINCENT, John Scott Oct 26, 1934 ~ July 24, 2012 We are heartbroken to announce the passing of our husband, father, grandfather and great grandfather, Scotty, as he was known to everyone who knew him. Scotty was born in Otorohanga, New Zealand and immigrated to America when he was 15 years old. He made his way through the USA and finally settled in Canada. As a member of the New Zealand Navy his love for the water gave him many years of enjoyment. Although his life had many different career choices, his love for the water was the deepest. He spent many years in White Rock, BC and was deeply involved in the White Rock Legion, Branch #8, which he was a lifelong member. In his retirement years he donated his time helping out at the “Beef and Brew”, tending his many many flowers in his yard and his nightly ritual of shooting pool and playing cards with Elsie something they loved to do. Scotty was predeceased by his mother Emma, father Stanley and brother Neil. He is survived by his partner and best friend Elsie, brother Les (Esma), daughter Donna, grandson David, daughter Carol (Robert), grandson Dwayne (Michelle and great grandson Micah), daughter Cheryl, granddaughter Camille, grandson Clinton (Kate, great granddaughter Quinn), sons Curtis and Cameron and the apples of his eye - grandchildren Ashley and Shaun, along with numerous nieces, nephews and cousins in New Zealand. Respecting Scotty’s wishes there will no funeral service nor celebration of life. In lieu of flowers donations can be made to the White Rock Legion, Branch #8, 2290 152 St. White Rock, BC. V4A 4N9 The family would like to thank the Dr’s, nurses and staff members, especially Dr. Sarah Makhdoom, who cared for him during his illness and gave him the most wonderful and passionate care. We would also like to thank our close neighbors for their loving help and support during this most difficult time. The Vincent and Burback Families.

Valerie Ellis and Melanie LeBrun graduated in the Comox Valley. Her son passed away in 1957 and her daughter Shelley Arthur passed away on December 5, 2009.

Mom spent many years selling Real Estate in Ottawa, Comox and White Rock. She also taught classes and wrote for the paper.
