Metro may burn ‘special’ trash

‘Self-regulation’ now a key education strategy as B.C.’s largest school district brings neuroscience to the classroom

Hospital, cruise ship and airline waste, or oilcontaminated soils, could be destined for new incinerator

by Sheila Reynolds

by Jeff Nagel to-energy plant for Metro Vancouver might burn not just regular garbage but also special wastes that are now shipped out of B.C. That’s the thinking of some Metro directors who argue an advanced new plant might be able to handle dangerous hospital waste, foreign waste from cruise ships or airlines and maybe even oilcontaminated soils or other materials. “If we can deal with special waste in a Derek state-of-theCorrigan art incinerator that would be a smart move to make,” Burnaby Mayor Derek Corrigan argued at Metro’s waste committee Thursday.

One might be half-asleep and staring at a wall, another may be calm and working hard at the task at hand, while a third might be so hyper she’s not unable to concentrate and is disrupting fellow students. While the calm, focused child is the one able to learn most effectively, the best way to help foster that behaviour has often been elusive. Enter Dr. Stuart Shanker, a researcher at York UniverSupt.

A peaceful gathering

A crowd forms a peace sign at the Cloverdale Millennium Amphitheatre last Wednesday. Organizers had hoped to create the largest human peace sign in the world, but failed to attract enough participants. The official crowd count stood at 625 – one-tenth of the 6,000 people needed to break the world record. Aerial photographs of the event will be used for two fundraising initiatives: a charity calendar, with sales benefiting the Mercy Ships Charity Hospital Foundation, and greeting cards featuring an aerial photo of the human peace sign will be made available to local schools for fundraising.

417 trees to be axed to make way for South Surrey development City has given preliminary approval to a commercial plan near 20 Avenue and Highway 99

by Kevin Diakiw A SigniFiCAnT commercial development in South Surrey

is forging ahead to public hearing, despite council concerns about tree loss and traffic impacts. Morgan Place Developments Ltd. is planning a commercial and office space development on a 25-acre parcel of property on 20 Avenue, just east of Highway 99. The development, valued at more than $100 million, will include 25,953 square metres (279,000 square feet) of retail and restaurant uses, and 9,662 square meters (104,000 square feet) of office space. It will have 1,330 parking stalls, 676 of which will be underground. Thomas Ivanore, of Morgan Place Developments, told The Leader Thursday he’s in discussions with “several” anchor tenants. As part of the development, 417 trees will be felled, leaving just 22 of the existing trees uncut. Most of those (371) are cottonwood and alder, which don’t survive well amid development, according to a staff report to council. The rest are a mix of cedar, spruce, walnut, willow, maple, cherry and other trees. Coun. Barinder Rasode said at last Monday’s council meeting she was uncomfortable with the size of the tree cut and asked staff to work with the developer to save more. Mayor Dianne Watts said it all depends on the make-

A developer is planning to build a commercial and business complex at this South Surrey site near 20 Avenue and Highway 99. up of the trees. “I know there’s some scrub trees there and some significant trees there, so they’re going to have to do that analysis,” Watts said. Ivanore said he’ll be replacing double the number of trees

with more valuable ones, such as maples. Coun. Tom Gill had some concerns about water and sewer servicing over the long term in the area, as well as traffic issues in the short term. As a member of the city’s traffic committee, Gill said traffic problems in that area have come up regularly. Public concerns are that the new development will add to traffic volumes, particularly along 24 Avenue between 160 and 152 Streets. Gill also noted there is a lot more land in that area slated for commercial development. He said it would be prudent for all potential developers to pool their resources for sewage pumping stations and other infrastructure. Phillip Milligan, president of the Little Campbell Watershed Society, said he’s reserving judgment until that public hearing. “We’ll still have some concerns until we see the full proposal at open council,” Milligan said. “We always have concerns with habitat protection and what the city is doing to protect the habitat.” Overall, he’s pleased with the development, but noted the devil is always in the details. The public hearing will be held at Surrey City Hall on Oct. 1 at 7 p.m. If all things go as planned, Ivanore said the project should be complete by 2015.

Parents: Self-regulation session is Sept. 18 From Page 1

Surrey School District Supt. Mike McKay.

Often, it’s about figuring out a child’s stressors and what helps them stay relaxed and attentive, and then giving them the tools they need to bring themselves to that optimal state. For a hyperactive child, it may be something as simple as playing with a ball of plasticine to re-direct excess energy, or using play to spark a particular interest and engage focus. The connection between student success and self-regulation is something the Surrey School District is championing. It’s not experimental or a fad, says district Supt. Mike McKay, it’s neuroscience, with proven biological, cognitive and social components. “People are starting to embrace it in a big way,” McKay says, adding self-regulation practices are catching on across the province and the nation. Surrey is welcoming Shanker back this week (he was here in August for a seminar), when he’ll be working with local teachers to prepare

for a “first wave” of implementation of self-regulation strategies in a handful of local elementary schools. It’s all part of Surrey’s ongoing drive to address children’s unique learning needs early. McKay compares the benefits of such early intervention initiatives to saving money and the power of compound interest. “If you start early, you reap the rewards. “It’s about locking in on what really works.” Five other B.C. school districts – Coquitlam, West Vancouver, Bulkley Valley, Greater Victoria, and Nanaimo-Ladysmith – are also moving ahead with self-regulation practices. • Parents are invited to learn more about self-regulation at an information session Tuesday at the District Education Centre, 14033 92 Ave. The session, which takes place Sept. 18 from 7-8:30 p.m., is free, but registration is required.

Save time The new 10-lane bridge is twice the size of the old one, which will reduce congestion and save you time – you could cut your drive in half. Less idling also means less money spent at the gas pump, with some drivers saving up to a litre in fuel each day. A series of interchanges and overpass improvements provide faster, safer travel to and from the highway. With less congestion and more reliability, you’ll be able to better predict how long your drive will take and make sure you arrive on time.

Incinerator: Plant likely won’t open until late 2018 From page 1

He said it wouldn’t make sense to keep trucking special waste to Alberta – emitting more carbon with each trip – if it can be handled here. “I know we’re trucking out thousands and thousands of tonnes of soil with oil contained in it,” Corrigan said. Surrey Coun. Marvin Hunt also likes the idea of looking beyond municipal solid waste to see if a new incinerator can end the need to export special waste elsewhere. “I think we should be dealing with our waste in our own region instead of putting it off to somebody else,” he said. The idea was raised as Metro directors agreed they need 370,000 tonnes per year of new wasteto-energy capacity after the region stops trucking waste to the Cache Creek Landfill in 2016. That would be the minimum size of the new waste-to-energy plant – about 30 per cent bigger than the existing incinerator in south Burnaby but less than the 500,000 tonnes per year Metro officials previously envisioned.

But it could be bigger if the region decides it could take more fuel from other sources, possibly garbage from communities on Vancouver Island, the Sunshine Coast or Fraser Valley. Corrigan said building in some extra capacity now may be cheaper and more efficient than having to expand later. That talk worries directors like Vancouver’s Andrea Reimer, who wants to keep Metro’s disposal capacity as low as possible on the basis much more recycling will be possible. The 370,000-tonne size is based on waste-flow projections and assumes Metro Vancouver’s population will grow to 3.4 million by 2040 and that each resident generates 10 per cent less garbage by 2020. It also counts on the region hitting its 70 per cent waste diversion target by 2020 – up from 55 per cent now – although officials warn a higher recycling goal of 80 per cent may prove impossible. Directors also decided the plant must be publicly owned, which could allow a Metro partner-

ship with a local city and a private developer/ operator, but not one where the company owns and profits directly from the sale of energy. There’s been talk before the plant could go to New Westminster, Burnaby, Surrey or the Tsawwassen First Nation within Metro, or to outof-region sites like Gold River or Powell River, solving the air pollution concerns of opponents in the Fraser Valley. But the regional district is far from choosing a site. Metro will ask land owners interested in hosting the plant to step forward next year and would make the list public next September. A decision on locating it inside or outside the region wouldn’t come until at least mid-2014. Meanwhile, Metro aims to short list six waste-to-energy firms capable of building the plant and then winnow that further to three finalists who would be evaluated based on their technologies and sites. The winner would be picked in 2015 and the environmental assessment and permitting

would take until late 2016 before construction could start. The plant wouldn’t open until late 2018.

Long timeline unavoidable: Metro Part of the long timeline is to allow extensive consultations with the Fraser Valley and any other affected communities. Hunt said the “extreme” timeline is unavoidable but added he doesn’t like pushing the final decision beyond the 2014 civic elections, when a new board might unravel the project. The wait doesn’t sit well with Covanta Energy, the operator of the Burnaby incinerator that has been working since 2007 to build a new incinerator at the former Gold River pulp mill and hoped for a speedier decision. “The timing is a disappointment,” Covanta vice-president Christopher Baker said. “We have to sit back and assess the process and determine if we want T:10.3125” to be a part of it or not,

based on the timing. It’s financially draining.” Other firms that are likely proponents include U.S.-based Wheelabrator Technologies Inc., which is owned by Waste Management Inc. and has partnered with Urbaser of Spain, as well as Vancouver’s Aquilini

Renewal Energy, which has had site talks with the Tsawwassen First Nation. More than a dozen other firms were informally surveyed by Metro this summer and most intend to propose alternative technologies other than conventional mass burn incineration.

Five incineration firms told Metro they’ve already secured undisclosed sites – one within Metro and four outside the region – while two alt-tech firms said they are looking at possible in-region sites.

PORT MANN BRIDGE

RAESIDE

Share the roads –and tolls

here are no reward points to amass and no Air Miles attached, but there are plenty of other incentives to sign on to the province’s new Port Mann Bridge toll program. The province announced last week that drivers crossing the new Port Mann will pay $1.50 a trip – half the price previously announced. The cut rate applies for the first three months – until the end of February – but those who register for a tolling account by then will be guaranteed the half-price toll for the first year, There’s also a great deal of sense in getting a vehicle decal that can automatically deduct payment, saving money that would be spent mailing out invoices to non-registered users who are detected by licence plate cameras. Those who sign up by Nov. 30 also get a $30 credit, equivalent to 20 free crossings. And a further 25-per-cent discount previously promised for registered HOV lane users during peak hours will apply on top of the introductory rate, meaning commuters who car pool will pay $1.13 per crossing for the first year. Frequent bridge users can also opt for an unlimited pass – $75 per month for standard vehicles that register early. So far the province seems to think the preliminary pricing is affordable – at least for one (election) year. But the move won’t silence critics because it doesn’t address an underlying unfairness, which is the Port Mann and Highway 1 are part of a regional – indeed provincial – transportation network we all use and from which we all benefit. Thus, everyone in Metro Vancouver should pay. Whether that means slapping token tolls of $1 per trip on every bridge, tunnel and thoroughfare (Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts has long called for an equitable tolling policy across the region), or adding a $20 flat fee to property taxes, it hardly matters. The principle is everyone should share in the cost of an efficient transportation system. The current method of only charging people who use the new Port Mann – placing a disproportionate burden on people who live south of the Fraser River – is not fair, as many people who won’t use the bridge will still get to drive on the new freeway. Metro Vancouver residents might balk at the suggestion they should pay a toll or higher taxes to help pay for the new Port Mann, but fairer road pricing would benefit everyone, especially if the fee generates more cash for other transportation improvements. While we don’t sympathize with south-of-Fraser folks who would refuse tolls and yet benefit from cheaper housing, we do argue for a fairer road pricing system for all of Metro Vancouver. – Black Press

BUDGET

ike de Jong’s debut as B.C. finance minister was a grim one. The first financial update for this election year projects a $1.4 billion decline in natural resource revenues from Kevin Falcon’s one and only budget in February. Most of that is from declining natural gas revenues in the next three years. And it’s not just the price of gas that’s lower than the finance ministry’s array of private sector experts had forecast. The volume of B.C. gas sold is down as well, as abundant new sources of shale gas come on-stream in the U.S. As with oil, that’s currently the only market Canada has. And it wasn’t long ago that the energy ministry was trumpeting its monthly totals for “bonus bids” paid by gas companies for drilling rights in northeastern B.C. That gold rush has wound down as shale deposits are staked and the price falls. De Jong’s response shows how serious this problem is for any B.C. government. He inherits Falcon’s political commitment to present a balanced budget next spring.

The

Leader

The Surrey/North Delta Leader is a member of the British Columbia Press Council, a self-regulatory body governing the province’s newspaper industry. The council considers complaints from the public about the conduct of member newspapers. Directors oversee the mediation of complaints, with input from both the newspaper and the complaint holder. If talking with the editor or publisher does not resolve your complaint about coverage or story treatment, you may contact the B.C. Press Council. Your written concern, with documentation, should be sent to B.C. Press Council, 201 Selby St., Nanaimo, B.C. V9R 2R2.

How he will do that, and be believed in a heated post-HST election campaign, remains a mystery. De Jong announced a hiring freeze for government staff, and a management salary freeze across health care, universities and Crown corporations as well as government operations. He hinted at an even harder line with unions, as the government’s largest employee group continued selective strike action. This, and the familiar vow to rein in travel and other discretionary spending, won’t come close to replacing the Tom lost gas revenues. Asset sales, which Falcon came up with in a desperate effort to dig the government out of its huge sales tax hole, won’t show up on the books until next year, if they go ahead at all. Raising taxes or fees? Forget it. It’s either cut programs or run another deficit.

The one glimmer of hope in what de Jong called the “ugly” resource revenue picture is that natural gas revenues don’t have much farther to fall. And then there is the light at the far end of the tunnel, exports to Asia where the price remains much higher. That project took two important steps forward last week. Spectra Energy and British multinational BG Group unveiled plans for a third major pipeline to bring northeast gas to the coast, this one to a site near Prince Rupert proposed for a liquenatural gas facility. Fletcher fiedAnd on Friday, the Haisla Nation and the B.C. government announced a land use agreement to develop another LNG export facility on the Douglas Channel near Kitimat.

Japanese and Korean companies. One of the bills jammed through by the B.C. Liberals in the hectic legislative session this spring was to do away with another of those federal-provincial overlaps that make industrial development so slow and difficult. Ottawa has sole authority to regulate reserve lands, but agreed to delegate that to B.C. and the Haisla, allowing them to pioneer the latest agreement. This is a major breakthrough, not just in the industrial development of northern B.C. but in dismantling the century-old logjam of aboriginal resource claims. At the centre of Premier Christy Clark’s much-promoted jobs plan is the target of having three LNG export terminals and associated pipelines in production by 2020. That now looks like a more realistic target. But the jobs and revenues won’t arrive in time to save the B.C. Liberals from their current predicament.

Why bother with crosswalks and lights?

Re: “teens hit in crosswalk.”

I lived one block from there for seven years (just moved) and there is far more to this story of a 13-year old male crossing 64 Avenue at 132 Street at a marked crosswalk. Not only is there a crosswalk there, is also a pedestrian walk/don’t walk light. Why there is a pedestrian light, I don’t know. Few obey it, particularly the students crossing the street to Ecole Panorama Ridge Secondary. They not only ignore the pedestrian light, they ignore the red/green light for vehicle traffic and walk on the red or jaywalk a few metres from the corner.

They also ignore the one to cross 132 Street at 64 Avenue. Enforcement by anyone? I’ve never seen it. There is also a greenway walk on the north side of 64 Avenue, where a hoard of students jaywalk before and after school, ignoring the lightcontrolled intersections at 64/132 and 134/64. Why more students are not injured is probably because they are young, agile teens and running between cars in the middle of the street seems to be second nature. And why wouldn’t they? Surrey has to be the jaywalking capital of Canada. Of course like most everything else in Surrey, there’s no enforcement, so why follow the rules?

This applies to vehicular traffic too. Down at my old corner, 65B Avenue, there is a marked crosswalk on 132 Street for two elementary schools and it is also used by secondary students and many seniors using the bus. Just sit in your car there and watch car, after car, after car, ignore those trying to use this crosswalk – mothers pushing baby strollers/carriages, students, etc. Why even bother with crosswalks? Let everyone do whatever they want, it is Surrey and no one gives a damn about enforcement or rules. We’d save a lot of money and paint. Terrance Fisher, Delta

Replant the trees and let them grow back to full size before allowing project to proceed Re: “City probes tree clearcut,” The

Leader, Sept. 13. Kudos to The Leader for bringing this issue to the attention of the people (great job). It just goes to show that once again Surrey has no backbone. They should have caught this disaster long before it happened. Far too often the bylaw people are not doing their enforcement job. And the mayor keeps giving us lip service, much like the secondary suite situation in Surrey: no enforcement. Al the people involved with this travesty should be charged and fined and should not be allowed to go forward with their application until all the necessary trees have been replanted and matured. Then and only then should the owner be allowed to proceed with the development under city supervision. Further, it is time that the people who issue these permits be checked out to see if they are getting any motivation to approve these permits. Let’s put some backbone into our leaders and start getting Surrey’s reputation out of the toilet and back to where we are a place people want to live and not be laughed at. Mike Hagel, Surrey

Add a few pennies to the pump; ditch all tolls

Re: PoRt Mann Bridge tolling.

I’m not sure who the bigger morons are, the politicians or the sheep that elect them? Tolling the Port Mann Bridge or any Lower Mainland bridge is counter-productive. If they had not tolled the Golden Ears Bridge, there might not be a need for a new Port Mann Bridge. Tolling the Port Mann Bridge will only put more stress on alternative crossings. Furthermore, if they need the funds to pay for the new Port Mann Bridge, just add a few pennies to the gas prices in the Lower Mainland, including Abbotsford, and remove the tolls from the Golden Ears Bridge and let’s just move on with it. Why do we need to create more infrastructure and costs with

transponders, mailings, account receivables, etc.? Oh I forgot, the elected morons prefer complicating life in order to create issues with which they can confuse the morons who elected them.

Joe Favia

Penalized by location

otheR LoweR Mainlanders who

oppose tolls on the Sea-to-Sky Highway and Burrard Inlet crossings would like us to believe that their infrastructures have always been completely paid off through tolls. This is not true. Tolls paid on the Lions Gate Bridge up to 1965 do not count

because it was owned privately by the Guinness family. When the province bought the bridge in 1965, it removed the tolls. Hence, not a single cent of the purchase price was paid for by vehicle tolls. When the bridge was completely upgraded with new decks in 2001-02, no tolls were imposed. When the Sea-to-Sky Highway was built, no tolls were imposed but everyone, including south-of-Fraser residents, are paying for it through a “shadow toll” based on the number of vehicles using it. Tolls on other bridges and crossings were collected for only a few years after opening in most cases, so one cannot claim they were fully paid for by tolls. All Lower Mainland tolls, except for the Queensborough Bridge, were removed in 1963. No

crossing can be paid off in a few years through tolls. It is arguable that the Pattullo may have been fully paid for by tolls from 1937 to 1963, The Port Mann and the Alex Fraser bridges are the only modern crossings that never had tolls. Regardless, the facts are that residents living south of the Fraser have always paid the most in tolls. With the new Port Mann Bridge and new Pattullo Bridge, they will continue to pay more in tolls unless fairer means of financing infrastructure are found. That means all taxpayers in Metro Vancouver should share the burden of transportation infrastructure. Taxpayers should not be penalized according to where they live. T. Suzuki, Delta

Waste problems on horizon

i AgRee wholeheartedly with Bruce Wyder’s letter on Sept. 6 in The Leader (“Surrey’s waste plan ill-conceived”). There should have been consultation. I have also heard that there are smaller bins for single-family homes. I phoned the Surrey waste hotline to complain about the size of my carts and to request three smaller bins. I am 4’10” in height and my bins are three feet by three feet. There are some paper bags in the bottom of one of the carts which I haven’t a hope getting out unless I upturn the bin. I have a handicap and at times I have needed the assistance of my neighbour to get my garbage and recycling to curbside. There is no way I can handle these bins. The young lady I spoke with was sympathetic with my plight and said they could switch the bins for me to a smaller size and but it would cost me $25 for each bin I exchange. I understand that the cart sizes are what I specified following the recent mailouts that occurred in late April/early May. What mailouts? I know I didn’t receive one and from the complaints I’m reading about, many others didn’t receive one. My neighbour didn’t receive one. There are half-a-dozen very large homes on our block that have one or more suites and they received the same size bins that I got. Prior to writing this letter I took a look at the waste collection program calendar Surrey puts out. Except this one is for January to May. Didn’t receive one in June neither did my neighbours. I am fully supportive of this new system. It is a program that will benefit many. But Oct. 1 will be bedlam and it’s only three weeks away. Let’s see, $25 to change each of my bins. And all residents of Surrey have to pay for their bin liners? Mayor Watts, as great as this new system will eventually be, I feel it is being crammed down our throats with poor planning by your city staff. There will be many problems come Oct. 1. and the majority could have been avoided.

Child porn hearing postponed Victim found online by Tracy Holmes A young woman who was shown photographs that were seized from the home of a South Surrey man charged with possession of child pornography became emotional last Wednesday (Sept. 5) when asked if the teenager pictured was indeed her. Giving evidence in the sentencing hearing of Douglas Wayne Bowers, the woman – who avoided looking at Bowers – is among 11 witnesses scheduled to appear before Judge Michael Hicks in Surrey Provincial Court. A ban prohibits publication of any information that could identify her. Wiping her eyes, she nodded, then verbally confirmed she was the subject of the photos. In one, “I must’ve only been in Grade 10 or 11,” she said. Bowers was charged in September 2009 with possessing and accessing child pornography, after an investigation that began in October 2008 led police to a man they described as a “prolific distributor of child sexual abuse images and video online.” A B.C. victim was identified. Following his initial guilty plea in December 2010, Bowers told Black Press he knew there was illegal material on his computer, but that it had been inadvertently downloaded while he was visiting adultpornography websites.

Judge Hicks heard that police seized – among other items – sexually explicit photographic prints and child sexualabuse stories from a home in the 16200 block of 40 Avenue during a June 2009 search. Bowers’ lawyer, Robert Doran, told the judge the defence was “willing to make an admission that Mr. Bowers was in possession of (the photographs), which should become part of the facts to which he pled guilty.” On Sept. 5, the young woman told Hicks Bowers first connected with her through Facebook. The communication progressed to instant messaging and text-messaging. One conversation occurred with the addition of a web-camera. “We typed while the video stream was going on,” the woman said. The pair never met face-to-face and never spoke on the phone, she said. Asked by prosecutor Keith Kinash if she’d ever told Bowers she was an adult, or if she had ever sent him photos of herself, the woman said no. The communication ended after the thenteenager told her mom that Bowers had offered her a place to stay in France. Sept. 5 was scheduled as the last day of the hearing, however, the proceedings were unexpectedly adjourned until Oct. 15, after Bowers’ lawyer reported his client was in poor health.

Pedestrian hit

Black Press

Four blocks on 152 Street in South Surrey were

closed to traffic after a car hit a pedestrian Sunday evening. Shortly before 9:30 p.m., a northbound car reportedly hit a teenager crossing at 34 Avenue in Rosemary Heights. An air ambulance landed at a sports field beside Morgan Elementary a short time later. Surrey RCMP issued a news release an hour after the collision, noting “the injuries are believed to be serious in nature.” A car with windshield damage on the driver’s side remained behind police tape north of the intersection, and cones marked off a spot in the crosswalk. Vehicle traffic in and out of Rosemary Heights West was completely blocked on its lone access route on 34 Avenue to more than 100 homes. Roads were open in time for the morning commute.

evaders got off to a shaky start earlier this month when some Transit Police officers refused to issue tickets because they hadn’t been empowered to demand identification from violators. The problem was an oversight in the legislation passed this spring that gave TransLink new ticket enforcement powers. The provincial government quickly moved to plug the loophole through a cabinet order Sept. 7 and all officers were expected to be issuing tickets as intended by Monday afternoon. Spokesperson Anne Drennan said most officers did continue to ticket fare evaders – provided they voluntarily identified themselves – but a minority weren’t comfortable with the process and were put on other duties, such as high-visibility fare checks at entrances to fare-paid zones. “They felt strongly about it. But they were out there working and doing everything they could through a different approach,” Drennan said. In the past, fare evaders who refused to identify themselves when caught could be arrested for obstruction, but the new rules initially failed to include the power to demand ID. To Transit Police, the issue was much bigger than just busting fare cheaters. Officers catch about 500 accused criminals each year who are wanted by other jurisdictions on arrest warrants – everything from breach of probation to armed robbery – by conducting fare checks and then running violators’ names through police databases. But without an ability to demand names and arrest those who don’t comply, a huge hole opened in what had been a useful anti-crime net. Without the quick revision of the regulation, officers would have had to merely escort violators off TransLink property, knowing that some might be

dangerous criminals. The rule change required Transit Police officers use new procedures in demanding fare evaders identify themselves and training is being conducted at the start of each new shift. Fare evasion fines still start at $173 but they will now climb to $213 after six months and $273 if unpaid after a year. ICBC will now refuse to issue or renew licences or insurance for violators who don’t pay and TransLink can send unpaid fines to a collection agency.

Firm retracts whooping cough remedy claim Fraser Health said vaccination program was undercut by Jeff Nagel A Port Coquitlam firm

tion in Vancouver daily newspapers but did not go as far as chief medical health officer Dr. Paul Van Buynder wished. “I am disappointed that the company has not taken the additional step of recommending vaccination to prevent the transmission of whooping cough,” he said, calling it the best protection

against the illness, also known as pertussis. “We continue to see new cases of whooping cough in Fraser Health and are concerned that we may see an increase now that kids are back in school.” Fraser Health said Enerex did comply with Van Buynder’s directive under the Public Health

2013 Community Grants the city of surrey is now accepting applications for 2013 financial grants from non-profit groups or organizations.

Fleetwood Villa 16028 83rd Ave Surrey 604-590-2889

What kinds of organizations are eligible? 10841 09.12

Space is limited. RSVP today!

Born legally blind, Tony Max is an internationally renowned painter of Vancouver scenery and B.C. landscapes.

Organizations will normally be expected to: • have an active governing body composed of volunteers, with paid staff excluded from voting membership; • have stable, ongoing financial support; and • extend their service to the general public in Surrey, not excluding anyone by reason of race, religion or ethnic background.

Who chooses the successful grant applications? City Council has established a City Grants Evaluation Committee, consisting of representatives from the community, along with two city staff members, to review all applications and make recommendations on grant payment priorities. The final decision on all grant applications is made by City Council. The Grants Evaluation Committee will review and recommend grant payments based on the following criteria: • The need for the project, the number of residents benefiting from the grant and the value to the community; • The absence of identifiable or competing services, programs or facilities in the community; • The cost per resident, funding sources and financial stability of the organization; • The effectiveness and quality of the proposed program, project or event; • The history of the organization, including past services and programs; and • The suitability for one-time only funding for specific programs, capital projects or special events. Grants will not normally be recommended for travel, operating deficits, or services that are the responsibility of other levels of government. Any organization which receives a grant should not view the grant as an automatic source of funding in the following years. An evaluation of the use of the Surrey grant must be submitted at the end of the program, project or event.

When is the deadline for grant applications: All grants requests must be submitted on an official application form and received at the office of the City Clerk not later than 4:30 p.m., October 1, 2012. Application forms and additional information may be obtained by contacting: City of Surrey, Office of the City Clerk 14245 – 56 Avenue, Surrey, B.C.

Act to correct the misinformation in a previously published advertisement, which showed oil of oregano alongside a broken syringe and read: “The natural way to help combat whooping cough... It’s nice to know vaccines aren’t the only choice to combat this disease.” Fraser Health has experienced a significant whooping cough outbreak over the past year and public health officials say some parents’ unfounded opposition to vaccine use can worsen the spread. In his letter to Enerex, Van Buynder said the firm created a health hazard because the ad was likely to discourage vaccination and hamper efforts to fight the outbreak, putting small children at risk of hospitalization or even death. Van Buynder said many natural products and behaviours can enhance a person’s ability to fight and resist infections and disease, including eating well and getting enough sleep and exercise, but said they can’t prevent disease transmission. The firm said it did not intend to infer oil of oregano is as effective as vaccination against whooping cough, but maintained the product has “antibacterial and antiviral properties” and characterized the incident as a “misunderstanding.” Van Buynder, his counterpart at Vancouver Coastal Health and B.C.’s provincial health officer have also urged Health Canada to investigate the incident as a potential violation of federal legislation governing health advertising. As of Sept. 5, there have been 328 confirmed and suspected cases of whooping cough in the Fraser Health region since the outbreak began in the Hope-Chilliwack area last December. There were 23 new cases in the last four weeks and there have been no fatalities to date. All adults in regular contact with young children are urged to get the free whooping cough vaccine. Fraser Health has distributed 36,000 doses but that’s short of its target of immunizing 50,000 to 75,000 adult caregivers.

Two people are dead

after a head-on collision between a Jeep Cherokee and a gravel truck on 16 Avenue on Thursday afternoon. The two killed were inside the Jeep. The head-on collision occurred just after 12:30 p.m., said Langley RCMP Cpl. Holly Marks. The initial investigation indicates the driver of the Jeep tried to pass another vehicle across a double solid line heading west, crossing into the path of an eastbound gravel truck between 200 and 208 Street. Police are hoping to locate and speak to a driver of a smaller green car, possibly a Toyota Corolla. That

Residents have been calling for more speed enforcement for the gravel trucks and for

the Township to create better safety measures, such as roundabouts, at key intersections. Police said the lack of shoulders on 16 Avenue make it too dangerous for them to pull anyone over if they were to operate a speed trap along the route. There have been numerous dump truck rollovers along 16 Avenue in the past couple months. Langley Township Coun. Charlie Fox has made a motion asking that traffic calming options be considered for the busy route. He believes the opening of the new Port Mann Bridge will drive even more gravel trucks onto 16 Avenue. newsroom@langleytimes.com

Notice of Alternative Approval Process DELTA PARK (JARVIS PARK) DISPOSAL BYLAW NO. 7115, 2012 (Pursuant to Community Charter sec. 86) THE PROPOSED BYLAW “Delta Park (Jarvis Park) Disposal Bylaw No. 7115, 2012” received third reading on September 10, 2012. In general terms, the purpose of this bylaw is to authorize Delta to transfer all of Jarvis Park (approximately 1,946 square metres, shown on Map A) owned by The Corporation of Delta to The Board of Education of School District No. 37 (Delta) in exchange for approximately 13,340 square metres (1.334 hectares) of the Sunshine Hills Elementary School site (see Map B) owned by The Board of Education of School District No. 37 (Delta). A copy of the Bylaw is available from the Municipal Clerk’s office at the Municipal Hall on request. ALTERNATIVE APPROVAL PROCESS An alternative approval process represents an opportunity for public input regarding the proposed bylaw. Council may proceed with the proposed bylaw unless, by the deadline specified below, 10% of the electors submit elector response forms requiring Council to obtain the assent of the electors before adopting the bylaw. If this happens, Council may not proceed with the proposed bylaw unless it is approved by the electors in a referendum. If you support the bylaw, you do not need to submit anything. AFFECTED AREA The area to which the alternative approval process for the proposed bylaw applies is the whole of the Municipality. DEADLINE Elector response forms must be signed and delivered to the Municipal Clerk at 4500 Clarence Taylor Crescent, Delta, B.C., V4K 3E2, not later than 4:00 p.m. on October 22, 2012. Facsimile or email copies of this form will not be accepted. Photocopies of the form are acceptable as long as they contain an original signature. FORM OF ELECTOR RESPONSE Elector response forms must be in the form established by Council. Copies of the form are available from the Municipal Clerk’s office at the Municipal Hall on request. SUFFICIENCY OF ELECTOR RESPONSE It is estimated that 6,996 electors within the affected area must sign and deliver an elector response form to prevent Council from proceeding without assent of the electors. The elector response form may only be signed by persons who are qualified under the Local Government Act to be resident electors or non-resident property electors in the affected area referred to above.

North Delta Devils edge Richmond 2-1

Overtime win at home by Rick Kupchuk

After dropping their first game

of the season on the road, the North Delta Devils notched a victory in their home opener Saturday night at the Sungod Arena. A goal by Devon Elford three minutes into extra time lifted the Devils to a 2-1 win over the visiting Richmond Sockeyes. North Delta was defeated 4-2 by the Delta Ice Hawks last Tuesday night in Ladner. Marco Romano scored the game’s first goal just two minutes into the Pacific International Junior Hockey League game, a lead that held up for 10 minutes before Sam Chichak of the Sockeyes tied the game. Outshot 17-7 in the opening period, North Delta got a 29-save performance from netminder Tyler Read to stay in the game. The Devils held an 11-10 edge in shots in the third period, but couldn’t get a winning goal past Richmond’s Payton Lee. Eight minor penalties were called, with Richmond getting five power play opportunities and scoring once. They killed off three shorthanded situations. Against the Ice Hawks last week, the home team led 2-0 after 40 minutes on a pair of goals by Anthony Brito. Mack Wallace, who assisted on the overtime winner Saturday, and Tristan Craighead notched goals four minutes apart in the third period to pull the Devils even. Brito set up Tanner Gattinger for the winning goal with less than five minutes to play, then added his fourth point of the night by assisting on Michael Olson-Eyre’s empty net goal with 17 seconds to play.

end, the Surrey Eagles finished with a .500 record, splitting a home-and-home series with the Chilliwack Chiefs. Friday night at the South Surrey Arena, the Eagles won their homeopener in dramatic fashion, edging the Chiefs 3-2 in double-overtime, with rookie Drew Best netting the winning goal in extra time. The following day, this time at Chilliwack’s Prospera Centre, the Chiefs drew even with a 4-2 win. Through two weeks of BC Hockey League action, the Eagles have a 2-2 record, and sit fourth in the Mainland Division, behind 3-00-1 (won-lost-tied-overtime loss) Prince George, 3-0 Coquitlam and 2-1-1 Chilliwack. Friday, Surrey didn’t get off to a good start in front of the hometown fans, as the Chiefs leapt out to a 2-0 lead in the first period – Josh Hansen and Matt Revel each scored for Chilliwack by the 13:05 mark of the frame. However, third-year Eagle Michael Stenerson made it 2-1 with a power-play goal midway through the second period, and the Eagles struck again with the manadvantage in the third, tying the game on a Colton Mackie goal 9:20 into the final frame. Defenceman Beau Orser assisted on both markers. After neither team broke the deadlock in the first four-on-four overtime time, the game moved to a three-on-three second OT; Best scored at the 1:04 mark. Rookie net minder Glenn Ferguson stopped 27 of 29 shots on net

Local trio on Canadian team at U17 World Cup Jasmin Dhanda of Tamanawis Secondary in Azerbaijan

by Rick Kupchuk

before leaving the game in the 50th minute. “I’d describe my playing style as running down the line with the ball, beating players and scoring goals,” Dhanda said on whitecapsfc.com. “When I take to the field I try to emulate (Canadian striker) Christine Sinclair, because she plays the same position as me.” While playing for SurreyGuildford United, Dhanda also is a member of the Whitecaps FC Girls Elite Program. She was a member of Team B.C. which won a gold medal at the Western Canada Summer Games in Kamloops last year. Two students at Semiahmoo Secondary are also in Azerbaijan, but playing for different teams. Aman Shergill, also a member of the Whitecaps FC program as well as a player with Surrey United, will play as a defender for Canada. Emma Fletcher, a midfielder and a Whitecaps FC program participant while attending Semiahmoo, is suiting up for her native New Zealand.

Following the success of

the 2012 Summer Olympic Games in London, Soccer Canada is again hoping one of its female teams finds itself on the podium at the Under-17 Women’s World Cup in Azerbaijan. The team has three players on its roster with a Surrey connection, including Jasmin Dhanda, a 16-year-old student at Tamanawis Secondary. A striker, Dhanda is already with the team in Azerbaijan, training for the start of the tournament Saturday against Nigeria. Canada is grouped with the host country, Nigeria and Colombia for group play, after which the top two teams in each of the four groups advance to the quarterfinal round. Canada reached the quarterfinal round of the 2008 World Cup in New Zealand before being eliminated by Germany. Dhanda made her debut in the Canadian youth program last year, winning a silver medal at the 2012 CON-

Jasmin Dhanda CACAF Women’s under-17 Championship in Guatamala, a placing that qualified Canada to the World Cup. She excelled in four games, coming on as a substitute in a 1-0 loss to the United States and a 1-0 win over Mexico. She played all 90 minutes in a 6-1 win over Guatamala, scoring once.

G. Wilson Construction takes house down to the studs to create new paradise “ from page.1 major work including electrical and plumbing to bring it up to code but with the exception of ... some of the rooms (being) opened up to bring in more light and to create larger rooms, the layout remained the same.” The house has three floors, with the bedrooms on the top floor and some in the typical old unfinished basement of the era which had lower ceilings. “No question it was a challenge, 5,000 square feet of a complete gut job and renovation and the clients wanted to take residence in eight months,” says Wilson. “A further surprise was the clients decided they wanted the basement lowered three feet to make it usable, all in the same eight months. The approach we take on a project this size, after we have documented every detail, is to remove everything that can be reused, repaired or salvaged. Anything we didn’t reuse which still had some life in it was donated.” They took down all the light fixtures and sent to them off to storage. The beautiful front staircase was completely covered with plywood to protect it from any damage. The fireplaces were protected in place and a few other features were removed and catalogued. All the interior doors and hardware were removed and stored. When that was done they went in and completely gutted the house right down to the studs. “We then brought in the structural engineers and they went through what was required to bring the house up to twenty-first century standards,” Wilson says. “Next we removed all the electrical wiring and all the plumbing. All the mechanics were removed including a big old boiler in the basement covered in asbestos.” Once the house was rewired, replumbed and all new mechanics installed it was on to

the good stuff. The kitchen is very modern but really works. The kitchen is one of the areas of the house where walls were removed to create a larger space. The old kitchen, dinette and dining room became the new kitchen and dining room. “Sean (Ruf), the architect, did an amazing job bringing the house up to the twenty-first century but at the same time leaving the timeless elegance of the era,” Wilson says. “Even in the kitchen, which is very modern, the hardware on the doors is the original and it just looks fantastic next to this streamlined room.” Well done to all who worked on this project and the owners who fell in love and had the sensibility to see past the surface and were willing to invest.

The exterior of the house, above, was not touched except to repair anything that was rotten. The new kitchen, below, is modern and sleek, while the new bathroom, left, and living area, below left, fit perfectly in this beautiful house.

A window on the world “ from page.1 says Craig Lovell, sales manager at A1 Windows. However, the cost savings aren’t the only concern when you’re thinking about replacing old windows. “Many people are replacing single-glazed aluminum windows with energy-efficient vinyl frames, (which increases) their personal comfort and health by preventing drafts, condensation and potential mold or mildew growth,” says Lovell. “Not only are old metal frames greater conductors of heat, they are also doing a great job of conducting noise as well. Newer frames and double-glazing can significantly reduce the noise on the inside of a home or an apartment.” Lovell also notes that many older windows don’t meet current building requirements, so they can be a safety issue if not replaced. If you’re concerned about the sun doing damage to your skin, the energy-efficient coating on new windows also offers protection from harmful UV rays. When you’re considering replacing your windows, it’s best to think about a few things first. “The objective should be to get the overall best value for your budget,” says Lovell. “To do this it is always best to have a knowledgeable salesperson review the options with you at your home.” Good companies will offer free in-home estimates, which will give you a better idea of what is in store for you. A great thing about this type of renovation is how quickly your new windows will be installed, usually within a day. “People are often surprised at how quick it can be,” says Lovell. With many different options available to you, it’s best to consider the type of glass and type of frame that you are looking for.

Products ❱❱ QuAlified trAdes ❱❱ exPert Advice ❱❱

“Typically vinyl frames offer the best overall value for their insulation properties and price,” says Lovell. “It is now possible to get good quality painted vinyl that allows you to get creative if you wish.” When energy efficiency is on the top of your list, the glass makes a difference as well. “The number of panes of glass combined with reflective coatings and an inert gas fill such as Argon between the panes provides increased energy efficiency,” Lovell says. The installation of your windows also must be taken into account, since everything can be undone if it’s not completed properly. “Poor installation can negate superior window performance,” says Lovell. “Unless you are doing extensive renovations it is often best to have one company to do both the supply and the installation. They are the ones most familiar with their products and will often warranty not only the product but their installation for a period of years.” Government grants and rebates for installing energy-efficient windows are available through BC Hydro’s LiveSmart program. The ENERGY STAR system rates windows by zone, with the Lower Mainland being Zone A. Installing a window that is rated for this zone will garner you a rebate, but Lovell recommends installing a window rated for one zone higher, which will give you an even better rebate. “It doubles the rebate” per window, he says, “from $30 to $60.” Energy efficiency is a growing trend in both new home construction and renovations, but it is more than a passing fad. Keeping your energy costs low will save you money in the long run as well as protecting the planet.

When you’re considering replacing your windows to increase the energy efficiency of your home, it’s best to take a look at several factors, including the type of glass and the frame.

Adding a few decorative accents an easy change By Maggie Calloway If you want to personalize your home or you are in the process of looking for a new one, don’t be discouraged by the endless “sameness” of home after home. By some very simple applications of mouldings or baseboards, you can take a plain Jane home from boring to wow! Don’t make the mistake of thinking great crown moulding, baseboards and all endless permutations are only for big stately homes; you can put your stamp on your present home by some pretty simple but effective applications. Terry Cook, the manager of Nucasa – The Finishing Touch is an expert on finding the perfect combination for your home. “Crown mouldings work extremely well on eight-foot-ceilings, as do baseboards; they just need to be proportionate,” he says. “On an eight-foot ceiling you probably want to stay within 3 1/2 to 4 1/2 inches, 5 1/4” maximum for the ceiling but the ideal is the 4 1/4 crown moulding. ... Then you would complement that with a 4 1/4 to a 5 1/4 to as low as a 3 1/4 baseboard; don’t go any lower because it would get lost and if you go higher it’s too loud and out of proportion.” Let’s not forget door and window casings. Both present more opportunities to add depth. There are a number of applications, including rosettes. These squares of wood with a pattern, applied to the top corners of a door frame, make a huge difference when coupled with plinths at the bottom. The plinths stand about six inches tall and together with the rosettes they look stunning, taking the ordinary to the extraordinary.

“Another way to dress a doorway is the application of a header, with or without a plinth,” says Cook. “A header is a build-up of a crown mould along the top and past the casing. The header can be as plain or as detailed as you wish. One thing homeowners should keep in mind when going this route is you should follow suit throughout the whole house.” Another point to keep in mind is to stay true to your personal style. If you are comfortable with a minimalist style your mouldings should reflect that. Concrete floors and countertops are wonderful but when coupled with fancy moulding, it’s more than a little jarring. The good news is there is a product for every wish list and probably some you haven’t dreamed of yet.

Terry Cook of Nucasa says that crown moulding and baseboards aren’t just for grand mansions. Even adding some depth to the ceiling, left and above left, can make a difference. Martin Knowles photos

Saving yourself from stress when building onto your home By Kerry Vital Your home is looking a bit crowded lately, and now you’re considering building an addition. Perhaps your family has grown in recent years, or you just want a bit of extra space for entertaining. There are many things to consider when undertaking such a project, but John Friswell of CCI Renovations has some tips for homeowners. “You need to ensure you have enough space,” he says. Municipalities have different rules for the height and width of a structure, so it is important to do some research before deciding on what the addition will look like. Figuring out your budget is also important before you start speaking to renovation companies. “Budget expectations are wide and varied,” says Friswell. “It’s dependent on site, structure and what you’re putting in it. Bedrooms and living rooms are cheaper, while kitchens and bathrooms are more expensive.” As to whether you will be able to live in your home during the construction, Friswell says it depends on the type of reno-

vation. If you will be working on a master bedroom and ensuite that only connects to a hallway, that will be a different story than building another wing from scratch. “We always recommend that owners might want to head out,” he says. “It can be a lot of stress and a lot of mess for them.” When deciding on a design for your new project, it’s best to look at what you like and dislike about your current house. “We go through a questionnaire to find out their thoughts,” Friswell says. “We need to know why they’re doing a renovation. Usually it’s because they don’t have enough space.” Whether you’re expanding the living area or adding a bathroom, discussing your plans with a professional and doing your research will stand you in good stead. While it can be a long process, ending up with a home you love is never time or money wasted.

Before CCI Renovations started work, this home needed a facelift, above. Now, the family has more space and a fresh new look, below. Submitted photos

Accessorizing the bathroom easier than ever By Kerry Vital The fixtures in your bathroom are looking dated, or perhaps you’ve moved into an older home and want to give it an update. You’re contemplating replacing them with something new, but there’s a number of choices available, and you’re not sure where to start. Perhaps it’s best to get the advice of a professional. “You need to trust the sales staff,” says Shelli Auclair, showroom manager for Universal Supply. The sales staff at Universal Supply’s Artistic Baths showrooms all have over 10 years experience with helping customers find their perfect fit, so taking advantage of their expertise will give you some peace of mind. “Our people can read blueprints and know building codes,” Auclair says. “We’ve seen some bad design out there.

Finding an oasis of calm in the midst of a busy life By Maggie Calloway Long gone are the days when bathrooms were pretty basic, even utilitarian, rooms. Now we have in-home spa bathrooms with steam showers, huge walk-in rain head showers, heated towel bars and wall-to-wall granite or marble. Even if you are not in the market for all the bells and whistles, it is possible to have an inviting bathroom that not only services your family but is attractive to a possible future buyer. Mike Merakian of Blue Ocean Construction not only builds custom bathrooms but also installs scores of bathrooms for Home Depot so his experience is varied and substantial. “Obviously it all depends on the customer’s taste and budget; that is the starting point,” he says. He’s noticed that there are several recent trends. “For Home Depot we install soaker tubs, 90 per cent of the bathrooms have tile on the walls and we are doing more and more all-inone vanities. These vanities have the sink and the counter all-in-one; it’s a step that saves time and money and they are very attractive, like a piece of furniture,” he says. “Being able to fit this unit into the bathroom and just connect the plumbing is a huge time saver. Rather than ordering various parts, such as sink and counter which could take weeks to arrive, this new all-in-one system is very efficient.” Gone are the days of placing tile directly onto the walls in the shower stall and bath. Now membranes called a Schluter system, specially made for water resistance, are carefully installed seamlessly, before tiling, to prevent water leakage and mold. “There are other methods of water proofing, of course, in fact we now have five or six different applications we can use on shower

All-in-one vanities, above, are a rising trend in spa-like bathrooms. Mike Merakian of Blue Ocean Construction says that soaker tubs, bottom right, are one of the top sellers right now. Submitted photos

walls where ten years ago we just had two. Whatever method is used, it is the most important part of renovating anywhere there is water and humidity,” says Merakian. If you are building a custom bathroom the sky is the limit, Merakian says. “Custom showers and steam showers with frameless glass are big. Heated floors are huge; we used to use coil pads but by running wire and covering with a skim coat of concrete we have more flexibility. Niches in the shower stalls for shampoo and such, sometimes with custom shapes, are once again popular.” Even the sealing of the grout has come a

long way. “There are very narrow wheels you dip into the sealing solution and run over the dry grout,” says Merakian. “Now we have a lot of coloured sealers so if your grout is stained you can go over it with coloured sealer and it looks brand-new.” Have fun when planning your new bathroom but keep the main features neutral. You can’t go wrong with pure white, and if you want to introduce some colour, walls and towels are where you should concentrate.

Making your kitchen into a gourmet’s dream By Maggie Calloway It seems like a dichotomy that in today’s world with everyone short of time, running here and there, that home cooking has seen a renaissance. Not only are people cooking but they are cooking from scratch. They’re not only making pasta but actually making the dough! There is a growing concern about where our food is coming from and how it is grown. The only way to really know what goes into our food is to pick it out personally, and that is where the wonderful explosion of farmer’s markets come in; we can talk to the grower directly and even form weekly relationships with our favourite farmer. The choice of fresh fruit and vegetables plus specialty cheeses and breads is enough to get the most jaded among us salivating! Dave Werner is the owner of Cookworks, two stores in Vancouver dedicated to the home chef. The stores offer up an Aladdin’s treasure trove matching the jobs to products. “It’s very interesting how people are going back to basics,” he says. “A carpenter needs good tools and a cook needs good tools too so we would recommend starting with a very good set of knives; they make preparation so much easier.” The recent recession has sparked a trend in cooking, Werner says. “People are looking for things that fall into a couple of categories. There is a return to quality products, (and) people who are really into cooking for the family plus entertaining, and want products that do the job (and) will last, and they are willing to invest. People are returning to core basics; they would rather have one good pot than dozens of gadgets.” One surprising thing Werner mentioned was how so many people are canning. That is really returning to core values! “Living where we do with such an abundance of fresh product from surrounding

farms, people are really taking advantage of the availability,” says Werner. “Pressure cooking is also having a big resurgence; people may not have a lot of time but they are finding ways of cooking healthy food.” Baking from scratch is another big thing these days with the whole family getting involved. They may not bake on a daily basis but when they do they once again want to know what is going into the food their family is eating. Werner says his stores can hardly keep stand mixers on the shelf, which is a 180-degree turn from four or five years ago. With the explosion of excellent cooking shows on the Food Network, I have to admit I have a soft spot for Jamie Oliver, a British chef who has hosted several cooking shows, including The Naked Chef, Jamie Oliver’s Food Revolution and Jamie Oliver’s Food Escapes. His genuine enthusiasm for learning and the delighted expression on his face when he completes a recipe makes me smile, and the easy access to any recipe, simple or complicated, on the web feeds the imagination. Did you know there are websites where you can list what you have in your pantry and up pops a recipe? Just Google “recipes by ingredients” and you will have a choice of websites. There are also a number of applications available for your smartphone that will give you recipe ideas and allow you to make a grocery list straight from the recipe. Next thing we know people are going to start getting rid of lawns and planting their own fruit and vegetables. Wouldn’t that be great?

Dave Werner of Cookworks, below, says that people are going back to the basics with their cooking, from making their own pasta in a stand mixer to mixing their own carbonated drinks in a SodaStream, left. Martin Knowles photos

Building the perfect home gym starts with finding a pleasing place to put it “ from page.1

at home, is to exercise in ways that actually mirror real life movements. Many old-fashioned strength moves aren’t actually applicable to how your muscles move on a daily basis, so machines that make you work the muscles that you do use are especially important. “There’s a rise in sports like Crossfit,” says Manuel. “It’s functional fitness.” Crossfit is an exercise program where people do daily workouts using jump ropes, dumbbells and their own body weight, as well as other types of apparatus. Another popular program right now is P90X, short for Power 90 Extreme. It is an at-home regimen that lasts 90 days and includes yoga, martial arts, aerobic exercise and weight training. Manuel says he’s seen many people purchase the program lately, because it doesn’t need to be done at a gym and uses minimal equipment. “There’s a convenience factor there,” he says. When you picture weight training, you probably think of a full set of free weights and a bench, with muscle men grunting and straining to finish that last repetition. However, that’s not all that’s available anymore. New innovations in strength training include weighted kettlebells, Steelbells, which are made of neoprene and filled with steel shot, weighted body bars, and weighted ropes and chains (perhaps not something to do if you live in an apartment). As always, there are still the classic barbells and dumbbells, but now they can be brightly coloured and wrapped in neoprene to lessen the chance of calluses. When it comes to where to put your home gym, Manuel says it’s important to put it in a place that you actually want to visit. “If it’s not a space that you enjoy, it will become a reason not to exercise,” he says, adding that many people put their gym in a spare bedroom or garage because they’re easy places to put equipment. “If you don’t make it easy, you won’t do it,” he says. While some people can run on a treadmill for hours without getting bored, others need something to distract them. Installing a television or grabbing your iPod might help you forget that you’re burning calories. “I believe in being productive,” Manuel says. “Some people can read a book or a magazine while exercising. I can’t!” A common misconception that many people have is that you need a large space to exercise in, but Manuel says that’s untrue. “You can do incredible things in tight spaces. ... I can give people a workout with just a medicine ball.” When deciding on what kind of equipment to buy, it’s best to consult a professional for some tips. “It’s really specific to the goals of the individual,” Manuel says. “What are you trying to accomplish?” And lest you worry about getting bored with your routine and therefore stopping before you see results, Manuel says that shouldn’t be a problem. “There are lots of tools readily available,” he says. “You’re not doing the same thing every day. There is a lot more variety.” If you’re feeling a little bit tender after a workout, you don’t have to suffer. While it’s completely normal to feel a bit of soreness when you’re doing a new routine, don’t push yourself into an injury. “You have to go by how you feel,” Manuel says. Fitness and sports stores carry several pieces of equipment that can be used to untie some of your knots, from foam rollers to the plain old tennis ball. However, it is always recommended to consult your doctor before starting on any fitness regimen, especially if you haven’t worked out in a long time or if you have any injuries or health problems.

Dai Manuel, chief operating officer of Fitness Town, recommends people looking to build their own home gym invest in one piece of resistance equipment and one piece of cardio equipment as a starting point. Resistance equipment includes functional trainers, below right, and kettlebells, below left. Cardio equipment include treadmills, bottom, or elliptical trainers. Martin Knowles photos
