‘Dangerous offender’ to plead his case six years after judgment

Prisoner appeals assault convictions Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

A man found guilty six years ago in the 2003 kidnapping and vicious beating of a South Surrey man is scheduled to appeal his convictions in B.C. Court of Appeal today. Daniel Lewis Allan is to present his case before Justices David Frankel, Kathryn Neilson and Elizabeth Bennett at 10 a.m. Self-represented, he is appealing convictions of kidnapping, aggravated assault, rob-

bery, possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose, break-and-enter with intent to commit assault and possession of a stolen vehicle worth more than $5,000. Allan was found guilty of the charges in April 2006, in connection with an incident that occurred on Aug. 29, 2003. Crown Jennifer Duncan told Peace Arch News that that it is unusual for an appeal to be heard more than six years after a conviction. Typically, they must be heard within a year.

In dealing with those acting without a lawyer, however, there is some latitude, she said. “The self-representeds, it’s hard to crack down, because they just don’t have the skillset,” she said. Duncan said Allan will have to point out “pretty significant legal error” to win his appeal. According to earlier court documents, Allan had kidnapped his cousin from a home in the 16300-block of 20 Avenue.

Allan bound and gagged the 47-year-old with duct tape, put him in the trunk of a Lincoln, hit him in the head with a pipe, then dumped him at the side of a dirt road, the court heard. During the 2005 trial in B.C. Supreme Court in New Westminster, the victim testified that Allan had appeared unexpectedly at the bathroom door as he was getting ready for work and demanded to speak with him. › see page A4

The latest projections have it running a $1 billion deficit, largely due to low natural gas prices. Thus all unpopular taxes and tolls, such as the property purchase tax, BC Hydro and ICBC dividends, MSP premiums, bridge tolls, carbon tax and others are almost certain to stay in place, no matter who forms government. Despite all the talk from politicians at the local and provincial levels, it is ultimately up to residents to find their own way out of this morass. Nobody at the government level seems very understanding of the real challenges that most families have in balancing income and expenditures each month, although Watts at least understands the likely effect that tolls are going to have on other Fraser River crossings. Port Mann tolls, even with a monthly pass, may be the tax straw that finally breaks many peoples’ backs. While a tax revolt is unlikely, frantic attempts to keep household costs down, such as buying gas and shopping more in the United States, are almost certain. The new bridge is welcome. When the project was announced and the economy was booming, the prospect of tolls didn’t sound all that bad. Now that they are almost here, at a time when people’s pockets have been picked over and over, the feeling by many is one of deep trepidation. Frank Bucholtz writes Thursdays for the Peace Arch News. He is the editor of the Langley Times.

Spokesperson criticizes use of unnamed source, ‘racist’ statement

PAH article rebuked by Fraser Health Alex Browne Staff Reporter

A Peace Arch News article that noted acutely-ill unassigned patients at Peace Arch Hospital have been kept waiting for days has drawn criticism from Fraser Health. However, the source of the original story – a health-care professional who spoke to the paper on condition of anonymity – maintains the Sept. 18 article has met with approval from physicians and nursing staff. Because of a shortage of ‘hospitalists’ able to staff a house-doctor program, unassigned patients – those who aren’t registered with family practitioners with admitting privileges – have been waiting up to four days for doctors to administer treatment, the source avers. Fraser Health spokesperson Roy ThorpeDorward called PAN Tuesday to question the

use of an unnamed source for the news story. “Normally an unnamed source would only be used if there was fear for the person’s safety or serious retribution, personal/professional consequences, those kind of things,” he told editor Lance Peverley. “The person not named makes some pretty serious allegations about patient safety and care. So to make those kinds of serious allegations without being named, I think it’s pretty poor practice.” Thorpe-Dorward suggested a line in the original story – that “many of the unassigned patients are coming to Peace Arch outside of the catchment area… for many English is a second language” – is “a very borderline racist statement.” Asked how the statement is racist, ThorpeDorward said, “The implication is there are a lot of immigrant population people com-

ing from either nearby Surrey or Richmond or other communities that are coming to Peace Arch that don’t speak English… I think that’s a racist statement.” The source was stunned when told the statement was considered racist. “It’s not racist when you want to communicate with patients,” the professional said. Thorpe-Dorward also said it was a factual error for the source to state there were not translation services available at Peace Arch Hospital. He offered a link to the www. phsa.ca website for the Provincial Language Service, which provides interpretation and translation services for Fraser Health, with a number and a secure booking system through which interpreters can be booked. The source countered that such a service isn’t an immediate option when trying to

converse with acutely-ill patients, adding that nurses and cleaning staff have sometimes been pressed into service as interpreters. “There are no readily available translation staff – you’d have to book them.” Thorpe-Dorward also objected to not being asked to quantify the number of patients coming to Peace Arch from outside the catchment area, saying this constituted a factual error – although he said he could not provide the actual numbers without checking further, which he agreed to do. The source said it’s significant these are the main objections to the story. The professional noted there has been no denial of the basic situation, in which unassigned patients have been denied medical care and nursing staff have felt “abandoned’ while bearing the brunt of frustration and anger.

Pit bulls cited

City seeks help with dog attacks Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

White Rock’s mayor wants the provincial government to sink its teeth into issues around aggressive dogs. Monday, Wayne Baldwin got the backing of his fellow council members to do just that. Council gave unanimous support – minus Couns. Louise Hutchinson and Helen Fathers, who were absent – to a motion by Baldwin to call on the province to help municipalities better deal with issues around aggressive breeds of dogs. Baldwin brought the idea forward in light of last month’s pit bull attack on a four-year-old White Rock girl. “We all know what this deals with,” he said in introducing the motion, referring to the Aug. 23 incident that resulted in Emma Cranford needing dozens of stitches after she was bitten in the face while at a family barbecue. Emma’s parents, Elizabeth and Mike Cranford, have been calling for a province-wide ban on pit bulls ever since. Baldwin’s motion did not go that far. He asked council to direct him “to write to the provincial government requesting they review issues around breeds of dogs known to be aggressive, including the pit bull breed.” The issue, he said, is one that cities can’t effectively manage on their own. As reasoning for the move, Baldwin cited community concern around certain breeds of dogs; the difficulty municipalities have in banning or taking action against certain breeds due to cross-breeding and other variants; and the strain on a city’s resources “to deal with the matter to this degree.” “It’s just something that’s not within our resources to deal with adequately,” he said. “This is a practical solution to a difficult problem.” The letter is being sent to the B.C. Minister of Justice this week.

Bus passengers begin the transit portion of their commute Wednesday morning at the South Surrey park and ride, which currently offers free parking.

Free parking to end at South Surrey lot for commuters

Bus users balk at park-and-ride fees Dan Ferguson & Jeff Nagel Black Press

The planned end to free parking at the South Surrey TransLink park-and-ride lot and a proposed shift to a $2-a-day minimum fee has local commuters unhappy, but resigned. “That’s ridiculous,” said White Rock resident Virginia Tomkow, a flight attendant who relies on the King George lot to get to work at Vancouver International Airport. “We pay enough for that (already),” Tomkow told Peace Arch News Tuesday. The only positive, she said, was the parking fee might reduce congestion at the often-overcrowded lot. Tomkow said she will pay the fee, because she has no practical alternative. “It’s essential,’ she said. “I work (late) shifts and I can’t get a bus in the evening in White Rock.” Crescent Beach resident Bob Semaniuk, who was waiting in his car for a parking spot to come open, said TransLink is “nickel and diming” riders who are try-

ing to save money. “I don’t think that would be fair,” Semaniuk said of the parking fee. “People are already strapped.” Commuter Kim Ross was dismayed to hear a parking charge was being contemplated. “That sucks,” Ross said. The former White Rock resident, who returned by bus Tuesday to visit relatives, predicted the additional expense will deter people from using the transit system. “It just adds up,” Ross said. “That’s (another) $10 a week, $40 a month.”

Virginia Tomkow

Another regular rider, Kelly Craik, agreed. “It adds up,” Craik said. “That’s not right.” Among the half-a-dozen commuters whom agreed to be interviewed by Peace Arch News, only one person, a visitor from Vancouver Island who didn’t give her name, supported the notion. “It’s user pay,” she said. “Someone has to pay for it (transit).” The planned minimum parking fee of $2 a day was revealed in TransLink’s new draft 2013 plan unveiled Monday (see page 8).

“Prices will vary depending on the local markets,” TransLink vicepresident Bob Paddon said Monday. “It will bring us much needed revenues.” TransLink projects it will raise $2.2 million by charging at the free lots and raising the prices at some of the pay lots. The South Surrey park-and-ride is already heavily overcrowded, which led TransLink this year to start towing incorrectly parked vehicles. Paddon said imposing pay parking should give motorists much better odds of finding a space at crowded lots in the future. The hope is that more drivers who use park and rides will simply leave their cars at home and catch feeder buses nearby to avoid the parking fees. TransLink plans to develop more park-and-rides in the future, including ones to serve the Evergreen Line in Port Moody and Coquitlam. About 3,500 of the 4,300 parkand-ride spaces TransLink controls are already pay parking.

SEPTEMBER SPECIALS

Convicted man represents himself › from page A1 The victim recalled telling Allan it was a bad time, then waking up in Royal Columbian Hospital three weeks later. He suffered a closed-head injury, a fractured skull, throat and breathing-tube damage, a deep laceration to his right hand and bruising to his face, knees, forearms and feet. He relied on a feeding tube for more than a year. Following the conviction, Crown successfully applied to have Allan designated a dangerous offender, which carries an

indeterminate jail sentence. Allan is also appealing that designation, a date for which has not yet been set. In granting the designation on Sept. 11, 2009, Madame Justice Mackenzie noted she was “unable to find any basis at all to conclude that there is a reasonable possibility of eventual control in the community of the risk posed by Mr. Allan.” “There is insufficient evidence of any treatment to which this man would respond, and no evidence that he has any motivation

It includes two armed robberies and the 1983 fatal beating of another man in London, Ont.

family time, diminished time for after-school work and volunteer activities… important for current university and scholarship applications seeking that ‘wellrounded’ student… diminished time for sports, music and social activities which make up and enhance a well-balanced and well-rounded life,” Stromberg said. Capital funding for Surrey was announced last October for two new elementary schools, expansions at Fraser Heights and Panorama Ridge secondaries and the purchase of land for four future

schools. But Stromberg says it’s a drop in the bucket, as those projects won’t be ready until fall 2013 and students continue to flow into Surrey at a rapid pace. While enrolment numbers in the majority of B.C. school districts are declining, Surrey’s continues to increase, growing by an average of 500 students per year. Stromberg noted that extended schedules are being used at Lord Tweedsmuir, Earl Marriott, Sullivan Heights and North Surrey, with Clayton Heights, Kwantlen Park and Tamanawis likely to follow suit next year.

Liberals could still close gap

he BC Liberals may be far behind the opposition NDP in the polls, but there are a few factors bubbling along — mostly under the surface — that may change their fortunes for the better by election day next May. The Liberals still face an uphill battle in getting re-elected. The NDP is polling well, getting roughly twice the support that the Liberals are getting in recent polls. However, the most recent poll, which was published last week, showed the Liberals gaining a small amount of support, with the NDP slipping slightly. This is simply one poll, and polling results are becoming less and less reliable, as the Alberta and Quebec elections this year have illustrated. However, the Liberals will do even better if the BC Conservatives, who have taken a significant amount of support away from them, falter. The Conservatives are holding a meeting this Saturday in Langley, and one item on the agenda is a confidence vote on John Cummins’ leadership. Should he not receive the backing of almost all the membership, the Conservatives will be thrown into chaos. While such a scenario seems unlikely, the Conservatives have a history of internal revolts and leadership dissatisfaction. If there is a significant split at the meeting, the Liberals will only gain. A third factor is Premier Christy Clark herself. While Clark has taken plenty of heat, she showed on Sunday at Rich Coleman’s annual barbecue that she has a good ability to campaign and communicate. This is something Coleman and others have said — Clark is a good campaigner, and is an effective match for NDP leader Adrian Dix. This will be a significant factor as people make their minds up. Another factor is that Dix and his party have been in the lead (in the polls) for a long period. The NDP is releasing almost no policy information, and this gap in information is causing more and more questions to be asked about the party’s actual agenda. These questions raise doubts in the minds of swing voters. Should this lack of information about what an NDP government would be likely to do continue into the winter months, the Liberals may see their fortunes rise even more. Six months is a long time in politics, and next May’s election is even further away. It is very likely that by next spring, the BC Liberals and NDP will be much more competitive than they are at present.

Development dilemmas

Tense situation exacerbated

Editor: I am in the process of addressing Surrey city hall, regarding the new fashion of building monster houses in South Surrey. Lately, I’ve been observing that every time a small house is sold, it gets demolished and people come in and start building huge edifices the like of which Surrey is blighted with all over. They take over the entire property, with barely any room left for a lawn, never mind some bushes or flowers. These houses do not fit into the neighbourhood, which consists of beautiful three bedroom houses, leaving plenty of room for fauna. In White Rock proper, they built two houses on a property which formerly consisted of one house, and these look beautiful and are big enough for any family. I’d like to know who approves these monster houses and why. We always joked that living in South Surrey meant never having to say one lived in Surrey, but with this trend we eventually will fit right in. Let’s stop this before it is too late. Edie Williams, Surrey n Re: Outrage over extensive clearcutting, Sept. 13. It is absolutely disgusting that another developer has ignored the bylaws and laws of our municipality and city by clearcutting. What is more disgusting is the monetary slap-on-the-wrist penalties. These trees are part of our heritage. Some of these trees have lived on the planet longer than us. The developer pays the penalty, which is cheaper than the selective cutting that was allowed on the permit. However the root of the problem goes deeper than this clearcutting in Surrey by a developer. Has anyone driven through the development near the border? Most streets are very narrow and the houses so close together you would could open your side window and shake hands with your neighbour. These are only examples of what has transpired in Surrey over the last number of years, starting from the monster homes allowed in quiet residential neighbourhoods. No wonder many families are leaving Surrey because of the highdensity housing, row homes and less greens space in the city’s core. The mayor and the city planning department are bending backwards to accommodate developers so that Surrey can become the largest city in B.C. I am not saying all developers are guilty of abuse of the laws, as there are many reputable ones out there, but the ones who do not conform to the agreement must be subject to loss of their licence in Surrey for a specified time period. This is the only detriment that will stop this abuse. The city must also overhaul its planning department and land-use laws to ensure that our children and grandchildren live in a green city and not a ghetto. Jim Enos, Surrey

Editor: Prime Minister Stephen Harper, just a day before the violence in Libya which took the lives of the four Americans, including the ambassador, pushed the button of extremism by closing down the Canadian embassy in Iran. This decision was announced by Foreign Affairs Minister John Baird while on a trip to Vladivostok, Russia. These events are rich with irony. At the time, Baird claimed the closure was due to Iran’s support of the murderous Bakhtiar-Assad regime in Syria. Fair enough. However, the irony is that the nation Baird was in at the time, Russia, along with another one of our top trading partners, China, have both been, by far, the strongest supporters of Syria in the world.

For Harper to now claim that we closed our embassy in Iran due to security concerns – the closure was necessary because of fears of potential violence and threats to diplomatic staff have happened there in the past “at the instigation of the government” – is more than ironic. More like self-serving, if not downright duplicitous. Claiming “overwhelming support by Canadians,” the PM is using Iran as a whipping boy for his extreme tilt toward pro-American and proIsraeli policies. Who now is our foreign minister – the Israeli prime minister? This action effectively prevents over 400,000 Canadian residents of Iranian descent from having contact with the home embassy. More than this, Iran has not shown, at least prior to the assassination of the U.S. ambassador in Libya, actions which have put Canadian embassy staff at risk. At this sensitive moment in world history, when the Middle East is in flames over a ridiculous lack of

appreciation for the sensitivities of Muslims’ reverence for Mohammad, and the overreaction to this by extremist Shiite Moslems, it is a sad day, indeed, when our government, long a voice of reason, civility and communication between all aggrieved peoples of the world, should choose to fan the flames of hatred and intolerance by closing the doors of our embassy with Iran. Iran, a nation with problems, yes, but a nation with a very well educated people, a people who want communication with the outside world, a nation with whom Canada has had a long and generally respectful relationship. At a time when the world needs leadership – from leaders who will stand and deliver both admonitions and sensitive commentary on the need for more, not less, communication – it is sad, indeed, that Harper has chosen to exacerbate an already tense situation by closing our embassy in Tehran.

Readers call for solutions to Surrey’s increasingly busy – and noisy – roadways, caused by a growing population.

Sounds like full-speed in Surrey Editor: Re: Our growth-at-any-cost attitude, Sept. 11 letters. When is Surrey and, for that matter, Langley, going to wake up to the fact that traffic has grown way beyond the cities’ ability to deal with it? What used to be a quiet country road, 16 Avenue, is now a major east-west highway, especially for trucks – and yet it remains a one-lane road. Or King George Highway, which has shoulders wide enough to land a Boeing 747 and which inexplicably narrows down, in several places, to one lane in each direction. And don’t even get me started on 152 Street, especially north from that genius-inspired one-lane bridge over the freeway all the way to Guildford. I, for one, would like to see my tax dollars at work on these problems. Jim Armstrong, Surrey n Letter-writer Steven Feldman’s points are very well taken, as the dump trucks and other heavy traffic – i.e. tractor trailers, cement trucks, etc. – have taken over Surrey, with no concern from city hall. Yes, 32 Avenue is a good example. However, 120 Street is an even better one, where an endless train of these vehicles is ongoing at all hours of the day and night. Dump-truck parking in Surrey has created this, thanks to the city, and tractor-trailers using 120 Street on their way to the container port on River Road, thus avoiding the scales off Highway 91, continue unmonitored. The roadway has deteriorated terribly, and the lack

of a stop light at the intersection of 120 Street and 62 Avenue continues to invite speeding and danger to pedestrians attempting to use the crosswalk. The real property values of residences along the Highway 10-to-62 Avenue corridor continue to decrease as the result of this traffic, and the noise level is unbearable. What happened to “peaceable enjoyment” of one’s residence? When is the city going to look after the interests and safety of taxpayers, and stop pandering to self-interest groups? R. Conley, Surrey n Re: Bursting at the seams, Sept. 4 letters. I can relate to the gentleman who wrote about all the changes taking place in the Ocean Park area. We used to live in a quiet peaceful place until all the development around us. I am grateful for being able to bring up my children in a free environment surrounded by forest and lots of wild animals – foxes, deer, rabbits, possums, raccoons, skunks, frogs, snakes, salamanders and all kinds of birds. The pheasants used to sun themselves on top of my car. The deer came every day to drink from the pond and help herself to our apples. The rabbits shared the vegetable garden with us. My daughter, Sapphire, used to carry the snakes around her neck, commenting how cute they were. All the forest and wonderful creatures of God are gone. Now we just have people and constant noise.

Evergreen Line from Coquitlam opens. But TransLink will shelve a move to more frequent SeaBus sailings every 15 minutes on Sundays and holidays, year round. TransLink says it’s found $98 million over three years in efficiencies so far and has continued to reallocate bus service to routes where demand is higher. Paddon said that could mean cuts in frequency on some routes – some underused evening runs could go from every 30 minutes to every hour. The plan also pares the amount of money going to regional roads and cycling infrastructure. Bus drivers will also be under pressure to deliver the same service with less recovery time at the end of each run and Coast Mountain Bus will run with fewer spares, so a bus breakdown will be more likely to derail service on a route. TransLink will have $472 million less over the next three years than it previously assumed because of a drop in the gas tax it collects, the deferred sale of its Oakridge property, less fare revenue due to a rejected fare increase, less toll revenue from the Golden Ears Bridge and the expected cancellation of the property tax lift by the mayors. The new three-year base plan goes out to consultation this fall.

Dozens spotted on White Rock Beach

Jellyfish ‘totally normal’ Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

The lions have returned to White Rock beach. But as was the case four years ago, the seemingly unusual appearance of dead lion’s mane jellyfish along the shoreline is nothing out of the ordinary. “It’s totally normal… totally natural,” Mackenzie Neale, senior biologist at the Vancouver Aquarium, told Peace Arch News then. “Normally at this time every year, we get calls about it.” The giant jellyfish caught the attention of beachgoers on the Semiahmoo Peninsula back in 2008, and are once again being spotted by the dozen. Reilley Olexson, 17, was at White Rock beach with her mom, brother and girlfriend last week when they came across clusters of

the jellies on the shoreline west of Oxford Street. The reddish-brown, gelatinous saucer-shapes are the most common jellies in northern waters. They can grow up to five feet in diameter.

Initially enthralled with their discovery, the group’s excitement became mixed with a degree of concern as more and more of the dead creatures came into view. “The more we saw, (we thought,) that’s kind of strange,” Olexson said. “My mom said she’s never seen anything like that and she’s lived here forever.” Neale assured the numbers are “not at all” a concern. She said the jellies are “kind of at the mercy of the currents,” and can be found “pretty much everywhere.” They typically live for about a year and start to die off towards the winter, when a lot of their food supply – other jellies – disappears. She advised against touching the dead jellies, as they can still sting.

Celebration planned for Sunday in Cloverdale

Historic church celebrates 130 years Jennifer Lang

Black Press

service, community barbecue, games for kids and a Sunday-school launch are just some of the ways Surrey’s oldest church will mark its 130th anniversary this weekend. A fraternal order shrouded in mystery and a genuine historic artifact will also be involved. The original silver trowel used in 1884 to lay the cornerstone of Christ Church is being donated to the church – a gift from the Union Solomon Masonic Lodge, the New Westminster-based lodge of Freemasons who were there at the beginning to put the stone in place – and whose members are still a part of yearly anniversary services held inside the historic church. Rev. Craig Vance, who took over the parish in 2005, was initially puzzled by the Masonic connection, until he was reassured by a senior cleric. Christ Church was dedicated with full Masonic rites, a reflection of the community that helped build it. “So we just kind of embraced it as a historical oddity,” Vance said during a recent tour. “At the time (it was built), you’re English, you go to the Anglican Church and you’re a Mason.” A time capsule was buried beneath the cornerstone, marked by a small plaque on the southeast corner of the church, says Vance, cradling a copy of Faith Among the Evergreens, a History of Surrey Centre. “There’s some reference to some copies of newspapers and some personal goods that they put in it,” he says. Christ Church, located just north of Highway 10 at 16613 Old McLellan Rd., is a heritage landmark valued for its arts-andcraft-meets-gothic-revival style. The church founders might be hard pressed to recognize the churchyard in 2012. Today, mature, second-growth Douglas

Rev. Craig Vance reflects on the 130 year history of Christ Church, which celebrates its anniversary Sunday. Firs soar overhead, enveloping the pitched-roofed church, its slim bell tower and cozy pioneer cemetery in shade. The gleaming white exterior paint – freshened just this summer after a location TV shoot – might seem odd, too. According to the city’s heritage experts, a more accurate 1884 paint colour would be green or even red. “Out here, in the middle of nowhere, it was what pigments were available. It was probably barnyard red.” Inside, the original tongue-andgroove wood paneling remains unpainted, as are the pews, bathing the sanctuary in rich, warm tones of brown and gold as daylight pours in through stained-

glass lancet windows. Today, the congregation of Cloverdale’s Christ the Redeemer Anglican Church stands at around 80. On any given Sunday, the descendants of some of Surrey’s oldest families can be found sitting among the pews in the modern sanctuary – built in 1990 and located just across the street. In the beginning, Christ Church was in a prime location in the growing community of Surrey Centre, although the area is a tad out-of-the way now. It’s built on land donated by the area’s first pioneer, Abraham Huck, a U.S. Union Army veteran who arrived in the area in 1872, homesteading on the hillside. Huck evidently prospered; his house was the location of the first

store and post office for Surrey Centre, chosen in 1881 as the site for the district municipal hall. It’s admirably weathered the intervening decades. It’s maintained by the parish, and the Surrey Heritage Commission provides $5,000 a year on a matching basis. “It’s a work of love, rather than a burden,” Vance says. “Many of my elders, if they could, they’d move back here in a heartbeat.” The old church is still used for special services, funerals and weddings. It’s also a frequent backdrop for film and TV productions, including Supernatural, Sci-fi TV show SG-1, which filmed an entire episode inside the church, and the film Alien vs. Predator: Reqiuem,

lending the historic church an undeniable aura of cool to a younger generation. “It’s perfect for a lot of supernatural stuff,” Vance says, joking that “there have been exorcisms” at the church – all scripted by Hollywood. On a more serious note, Vance says one of the things that attracts young people to the church is a sense of connection and belonging to something much older and larger than themselves. “People are feeling that there’s a shallowness, and a rootlessness in our world. The Christian church is one of the few institutions that has a really really long memory.” Traditions like the harvest dinner help connect today’s parishioners to their Surrey Centre pioneer predecessors, who similarly ushered in the autumn, filling every square inch of the old church with pumpkins and produce – the symbols of the harvest. “Cloverdale was never a wealthy community,” Vance says, pointing to the farmers and tradespeople who populated the valley. “There’s a sense that this was very much at the centre of their world.” On Sunday, the wider community is invited to the anniversary service. The guest preacher is Fr. Matthew Johnson, an Anglican Church street priest who ministers on Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside. That’s followed by a community barbecue featuring hamburgers, hot dogs, corn on the cob and more – available by donation. There will also be games, the launch of the first Sunday school of the year, plus a chance to visit the heritage Christ Church and its historic cemetery. The service begins at 10 a.m. in the 130-year-old church, followed by a procession across the street to the modern home of the parish, Christ the Redeemer Anglican Church, at 16633 Bell Rd.

Are they concerned that B.C. has suffered a 35,000-hectare net loss of Agricultural Land Reserve since it was introduced in 1973 – almost three-quarters of that loss from high-quality land in southwestern B.C and Vancouver Island? Even when wrong-doers are convicted of malpractice with regard to agricultural land-use decisions, the buildings which were improperly permitted remain, the loss of farm land permanent. Far from doing anything to inform the public about environmental concerns, our authorities widen the information gap. The federal government seems bent on muzzling critics; BC Provincial Parks has discontinued its valuable interpretive program; the petting zoo in Stanley Park has been terminated, despite its usefulness in connecting city children with animals; few schools in Surrey take advantage of their readilyaccessible outdoor laboratories of Green Timbers and Sunnyside Acres Urban Forests. These are short-sighted and ominous measures.

Suffering from a soft tissue injury to your neck? A new method of diagnosing and treating neck pain is now available at the Advanced Physiotherapy clinic in White Rock. The ground breaking technology, a Multi-Cervical Unit (MCU) developed by BTE Technologies, is targeted at soft tissue injuries of the neck commonly referred to as whiplash associated disorders (WAD). Using the MCU physiotherapists gather data developed during an assessment to construct a personalized recovery plan that focuses on strengthening weak muscles. Studies have demonstrated that the MCU is extremely effective in obtaining favourable outcomes although results vary. If you are suffering from neck pain, we invite you to call our office to discuss the suitability of our Neck Excellence program for your condition.

The ADDED Touch

Cobi Ladner makes a stop in South Surrey

SINCE 1984

Style authority visits Dozens of design enthusiasts turned out to House Warmings Design last week to hear Cobi Ladner share her views on design trends. The former Canadian House and Home editor – who was at the helm of the magazine for 15 years – was hosted by House Warmings owner Briar Codesmith. Considered an authority on design and decorating, Ladner was in town from Toronto for the Western Living Designers of the Year Awards, held

Sept. 13 in Vancouver. According to information on her website, she visited “some of my favourite stores in the Vancouver area” to introduce her line of cobistyle home accessories and furniture, and to share tips on decorating and ideas for the home. She also presented at McBurney Junction in Langley and Kootenai Moon Furniture Inc. in Nelson. About 50 people attended the event at House Warmings, 2443 161A St.

Contirbuted photo

Volunteers sought for ‘happy labour’ effort Habitat around Chantrell Creek Elementary is to be the focus of some tender loving care Saturday, Sept. 22. Spearheaded by Sunnyside Acres Heritage Society, the restoration effort is part

of the society’s commitment to restore and maintain links between Sunnyside Acres and nearby green spaces. Vancity, the City of Surrey and Starbucks are all supporting the Sept. 22 event, and

organizers are hopeful others in the community will also lend a hand. Volunteers of all ages are invited to turn out for a few hours of “happy labour,” helping remove invasive species and plant native plants.

The enhancement work is to get underway at 10 a.m. and will proceed rain or shine. Those planning to help are advised to dress for the weather and bring garden gloves. Meet at 2586 137A St.

Glancing east along White Rock’s Marine Drive, Gary Yee summed up the occasion in one sentence: “This is a once-in-a-lifetime event.” The South Surrey man was among Ferrari enthusiasts who turned out last Thursday in anticipation of the Ferrari Club of America’s custom 599 HGTE Rally car. The car – the last of its model to come off of the assembly line and worth around $325,000 – is making the rounds of FCA chapters across North America to commemorate the club’s 50th anniversary, Passione. Along the way, members can apply to drive various legs of the year-long, 20,000-mile trek in exchange for a donation to Ronald McDonald House. In Vancouver, the charity offers out-of-town families with seriously ill children support and a place to stay while their child receives medical treatment at BC Children’s Hospital.

Gary Yee of the Ferrari Club of America snaps a photo of Roy Kan next to the 599 rally car Sept. 13 on White Rock’s Marine Drive. before the car purred to a stop in White Rock, driven from Vancouver by Roy Kan, past-director of the FCA’s Western Canada region. Kan passed a ceremonial baton to Will Diefenbach, the pastdirector of the Northwest FCA who will take the car to Seattle. Shaun Sinclair, president of the local FCA chapter, noted it’s not just adults who are excited by the

rally car. At a stop Tuesday at Ronald McDonald House in Vancouver, a six-year-old boy fighting leukemia was “vibrating” with excitement at the chance to sit behind the wheel. That event, Sinclair said, raised about $3,000 for the children’s charity. The tour got underway last month in Monterey, Calif., and is to wrap up in Wisconsin next July.

“I lost my two front teeth when I was 7 during a playground accident. It has taken me 28 years to ﬁnd a dentist that I was comfortable with and I knew had the expertise and patient care to tend to my complicated dental case. Dr. Nelson and his team have been exceptional during the entire bone grafting procedure to correct a bone defect that has come from missing my teeth for so many years. I highly recommend Dr. Nelson when it comes to bone grafting and implants. He goes above and beyond for his patients to ensure they are comfortable and have all the information they need to make informed decisions. I’m loving my new smile!” — E. Scott

To solve this problem, the dentist can often do bone graft procedures called Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) or a sinus lift (in the upper jaw). Bone grafts in the mouth are a proven way of building a solid foundation for implants to be placed. If you’ve been putting off going to the dentist for years or have been told that you don’t have enough bone for dental implants, Dr. Nelson may be able to help you.

Enjoy your smile.... Everybody else does!

Tuesday

Bone loss in jaws always occurs when teeth are lost. Up to 50% of the bone ridge volume can disappear in the ﬁrst year after teeth extractions because there are no longer any roots to stimulate the bone. Extensive periodontal disease and ill ﬁtting dentures also lead to the thinning and shortening of the jawbone. This leads to complications when attempting to place implants as the dentist requires a suitable amount of bone to support the implant.

Delving into the world of Sex (and the Suburb) Monique Tamminga Black Press

Over several glasses of wine and numerous brainstorming sessions (usually involving more wine), three very different women, ages 25, 30 and 35, decided to create an edgy blog – where no topic is taboo – highlighting everything that is cool about living, dining and shopping in the Fraser Valley. And so sexandthesuburb.com was born. That was less than three months ago, and Sex and The Suburb has exploded in popularity, with the blog generating more than 8,500 hits in the first month. Since then, the SATS ladies – including former Peace Arch News special-sections co-ordinator Kristyl Clark, 30 – have caught the eye of several event organizers, even finding themselves co-hosting The Fox radio station’s radio show earlier this week in Vancouver. Most recently, a local sex therapist has joined the blog to answer questions people are too shy to ask out loud. But it’s the honesty these women put into the articles they write that has really connected readers with the blog, and even though there is a certain vulnerability to being that open about their personal lives, none of the women has any regrets. It’s all written from a personal perspective, touching on domestic

while also showcasing the fabulous things we have going for us here in the Fraser Valley,” says Teresa Celentano, 35. The trio had no idea the blog would become such a hit so quickly. “It came together really fast and once we saw that the domain name hadn’t been taken, we got goosebumps,” says Clark — the mommy of the trio whose often hilarious and unabashedly honest columns, Pink Laundry, appears on the blog. Earlier this year, Clark left her post at PAN after her maternity

leave to stay at home with her two young girls. Her columns are about the ups and downs of being a mom. The SATS girls recently partnered with last week’s Cork and Keg event at Cascades casino in Langley. They followed that up with visits to BBQ on the Bypass and the Fraser Valley Food Show in Abbotsford — blogging and tweeting about the tastiest treats and sips being offered, with readers posting their favourite bits and bites.

The trio had to break the news to their husbands that their private lives were going to be displayed for the world to see online. “They were totally supportive. They jokingly call themselves the Househusbands of Brookswood,” says Del Frarri, who wrote about her experience with domestic violence prior to meeting her husband. “That was hard for my husband to read, but in the end it’s been a really positive thing for us.” Celentano wrote about her painful battle with endometriosis. “I felt like I was the only one going through this but when I wrote about it and received so much feedback, I saw that I wasn’t alone,” she says. While Clark often leaves readers laughing into their wine glasses with her tales, others require a handful of tissues to get through, including one reprinted from the Peace Arch News in which she talks about her dad who died in an emergency shelter in the Downtown Eastside before Clark could tell him he was going to be a grandfather again. The ladies also thought it was important to incorporate charity work as well. They managed to fill 50 backpacks with school supplies for the Salvation Army back-toschool drive.

Three eastbound lanes open on new bridge

NEED A FAMILY PHYSICIAN? PENINSULA MEDICAL CLINIC

Cars cross Port Mann

is very pleased to welcome two new family practice physicians to its clinic. They will be accepting new patients until their practices are full.

Jeff Nagel Black Press

The first motorists began using the new Port Mann Bridge Tuesday as three eastbound lanes opened across the new span. Tolls aren’t yet being charged and won’t be until sometime in December when it officially opens with eight lanes. “Woo hooo!” tweeted Carmen Wright, one of the bridge’s first users Tuesday. “It’s beautiful! To all who worked so hard on this – great job.” The partial opening is to shift traffic to allow construction on remaining elements of the project, such as the completion of the complex new Cape Horn interchange. Highway 1 commuters experienced heavy delays Monday morning after overnight lane closures constricted traffic. Project officials warn even worse delays are ahead before work is finished. Westbound traffic will be cut to just one lane for the night of Saturday Sept. 22 and much of Sunday Sept. 23. The last weekend of September will see Highway 1 traffic reduced to one lane in each direction from Friday evening to Sunday morning.

Drivers cross the new Port Mann. Long delays are expected and drivers are urged to avoid the highway and use alternate routes if they can. For more construction delay details see www.pmh1project.com. The final two lanes of the 10-lane bridge are to be opened in late 2013 after the old bridge is dismantled. The introductory toll of $1.50 for regular cars will last one year for drivers who register and get a windshield decal (three months for those who don’t) before rising to $3.

I was always my mother’s favorite child and when I got into serious financial trouble a six or seven years ago, my mother gave me $190,000 to make my financial problem go away. It was always just between her and me and nothing was said to my three siblings. She has now died and I feel that the amount given to me is none of their business. I am the executor so they need never know. I’m right aren’t I?

No. Your duty as executor would be to ensure that your mother’s whole estate is brought in and dealt with in accordance with her will. The $190,000 advance is presumed to be part of her estate. If you dispute that the $190,000 should be accounted for, you must not accept being the executor. If you don’t decline, the beneficiaries are entitled to make serious and detailed inquiries into her financial affairs prior to her death, and if they are persistent, you will be found out.

…on the Semiahmoo Peninsula

Kriston Dean dons disguise for popular television series

Purdy’s boss takes on undercover role Alex Browne

Arts Reporter

riston Dean’s most recent assignment turned out to be sweet – even if it wasn’t all candy-coated. As director of merchandising and marketing for Purdy’s Chocolates her daily responsibilities include product development, branding, imaging and marketing all 61 of the company’s stores across Canada – including the Semiahmoo Shopping Centre location. But – disguised with a new identity as a trainee worker and a Purdy’s apron – she got a very different view of decisions made at the executive level when she became the subject of an episode of the reality show, Undercover Boss Canada. The results of her odyssey will air this tonight (Thursday) at 9 p.m. on the W Network (repeated Friday at 10 a.m. and 8 p.m., Sunday at noon, 7 and 11 p.m. and Monday at 9 a.m. and 1 p.m.). According to the Semiahmoo Secondary grad (class of ’94), the experience provided not only an opportunity to connect with employees but a chance to reflect on her own life. “I was expecting the businesslearning part of it, and the opportunity to work on the front lines – but I wasn’t expecting the Contributed photos personal journey,” she said. Kriston Dean in her usual work attire (left), and during her appearance on Undercover Boss (right). Dean – who lives in Langley with the decorated glasses and two fake Dean was placed in three to speak in a way that wasn’t husband Kelly and their children, tattoos – differed “quite a lot” from locations during the shoot, at corporate – I was soon answering Abby, 10, and Memphis, 8, said the real Dean, who was naturally Purdy’s stores in Toronto and as Devon.” she had to reach back to her days graduating toward a career in Edmonton, and at the Vancouver Working in the factory kitchens as a drama student at Semi to marketing even while she was at factory kitchens. was also a little nerve-wracking, tackle the new persona – Devon – Semi.

at how much of their personal lives employees were willing to share with a co-worker. “I was a complete stranger to them and, within a day, they were telling me very personal stories. I felt very honoured they would share that with me – it was sometimes very emotional. “What I took away from that is that everybody has a story, everybody has something going on in their lives,” she said. “You find yourself reflecting on your own life.” Of course, part of the point of the Undercover Boss series is for executives to hear what employees say about the business when the boss is not around. “No matter how much you visit the frontlines as a leader, there are things that are not said, and not shown,” Dean said. “I really did hear things I would not otherwise have heard.” Inevitably, she said, there were a few blushes when her identity was revealed in each situation – and employees clearly running over in their minds just what they’d said when they thought she was Devon. There was really nothing for them to worry about – and Dean said she definitely did gain insights on how the company could serve customers better. Dean said she also gained a whole new appreciation of the high level of dedication and pride that Purdy’s workers bring to their jobs. “That goes far beyond anything you can teach and train,” she said. At the end of the shoot, she was glad to say goodbye to ‘Devon.’ “I think she’s been laid to rest,” she said. “Although I did keep her leather jacket.” Dean views her Undercover Boss experience as a valuable exercise. “The whole idea of the show is to celebrate employees in the Canadian workforce and find out the things we can do better, and I would highly recommend it to other businesses,” she said.

Peninsula duo to perform for food bank fundraiser Alex Browne Arts Reporter

If there is such a thing as a win-win proposition in the arts, it’s Debra Da Vaughn and Christopher Simmons’ upcoming A Night On Broadway fundraiser for the Surrey Food Bank. First win, the popular Surrey-based husbandwife/ tenor-soprano team said, is that this year’s show – coming up Saturday, Sept. 29, at the Surrey Arts Centre mainstage, in both a 3:30 p.m. matinee and, 7:30 p.m. performance – has received full sponsorship from Envision Financial. That makes a huge difference to the bottom line of the concerts the couple have presented annually for the food bank since 2007. “The thing that audience members may not understand is that 100 per cent of ticket sales go to the food bank,” said Da Vaughn. “While people are being entertained, they’re also contributing to the cause.” “That’s what having Envision involved has done for us – we’re thrilled that they’re on board as sponsors,” said Simmons. The second win is that lovers of the Broadway tradition – and great singing – can expect a great show. In addition to the vocal talents of Simmons and Da Vaughn – well known and valued in Vancouver operatic circles and in Fraser Valley Gilbert and Sullivan Society productions – the upcoming A Night On Broadway also brings together a splendid panoply of performers to salute favourite and lesser-known selections from the rich history of musical theatre. Sharing the spotlight will be two accomplished and versatile classical artists – mezzosoprano Tamara Croft and baritone Joel Klein – plus celebrated musical theatre singer/ comedienne Cathy Wilmot, guest soprano Vanessa ColeyDonohue and several ensembles from the award winning White Rock Children’s Choir family of choral groups, under the direction

of founder Sarona Mynhardt. All-important piano accompaniment will be provided by bright emerging talent WenWen Du, in a program that will highlight everything from Leonard Bernstein and Stephen Sondheim’s witty and inspired Candide, to Andrew Lloyd Webber favourites from Phantom of the Opera, Les Miserables and Jesus Christ Superstar, to Broadway classics like Brigadoon, Evita, My Fair Lady and even reaching back into the `20s for a little-heard gem by Cole Porter, Tale Of An Oyster, from Fifty Million Frenchmen. The material provides plenty of challenges and ample scope for all the singers, including Glitter and Be Gay, a showpiece aria from Candide for Da Vaughn, and Heaven On Their Mind, Judas’ opening song from Jesus Christ Superstar, which will show a relatively unseen side of Simmons – rock singer. “I used to sing in a rock band,” he confesses. “There’s a bit of a Carl Anderson influence there – and my second eldest brother used to share an apartment with a (then) unknown singer named Ted Neeley.” While Surrey Food Bank executive director Marilyn Herrmann was instrumental in securing Envision’s support (after five concerts, she’s virtually kith and kin, the couple quips), it’s important to remember the shows are a first and foremost community inititative, Simmons noted. “This is not a food bank-produced event,” he said. “This is not their mission – but we’re glad they believe in it enough to put their logo on it.” If both of the day’s shows sell out, the event could raise as much as $20,000 for the food bank, Simmons said. “Last year we came close,” he added. The couple note that support is even more crucial this year – with the current economy, food bank resources have already been stretched to the limit prior to the usual pre-Christmas low ebb in October. Simmons and Da

Vaughn said they count themselves particularly fortunate with the current show not only in having the support of Envision, which sent out some 11,000 cards advertising the event to customers,

but also Thornley Hayne Creative, which contributed all the promotional and graphic design work. And they also say they feel blessed to have the services of Lyn › see page A33

Organizers hope to raise $20,000 way around for the couple who welcomed their first child, Cassandra, on May 5. She’s already taking an interest in all of their activities, they report. “She’s definitely been exposed to music,” Da Vaughn said. “We’ve found her sitting in the living room singing along with us while we’ve been rehearsing Handel.” Also a busy singing instructor (Coley-Donohue is one of her

students), Da Vaughn started teaching only two weeks after Cassandra was born, and went back to it full time this month. She and Simmons are lucky to be able to work from home, she adds, as well as being able to find an exemplary nanny for Cassandra. “Making commitments to roles is difficult at the moment, but we will get back on stage in shows eventually,” Simmons said. “Concert work is nice for now.”

Paul Hayes completes cycling journey across China

Delivering the joy of sports Nick Greenizan Sports Reporter

Paul Hayes called it “one for the ages,” and evidence suggests that description is not far from the truth. Because whether it was sandstorms, nighttime temperatures so cold that they had to buy more clothes or government blockades that forced them into lengthy detours, Paul Hayes and cycling partner Ho Young Yoo experienced an awful lot on their Chinese bike trek. Hayes, a 28-year-old Earl Marriott Secondary grad who now teaches at an English-language high school in Shanghai, and Young Yoo, one of Hayes’ students, completed their cross-China trek last month. They embarked June 30 and travelled a total of 5,342 kilometers – nearly 1,000 more than their expected 4,200. Paul Hayes They travelled through cyclist 10 provinces, and up to an elevation of 3,800 feet. The endeavour took 44 days, with one day off. Along the way, they handed out sports equipment to impoverished Chinese children. “The company we worked with was shipping us new gear every five days, we handed out so much,” Hayes said over a Skype interview. Many of the people they met live in regions so remote that they’d never seen foreigners before – “they were surprised when we showed up. Like they’d seen a ghost” – but they were thrilled by the pair’s visit nonetheless. “Our trailer never got empty because people were giving us fruit and food and all kinds of things – they were so giving. “It’s something I’ll never forget. You wouldn’t have to ask me twice to do it again.” The equipment donation was done as part

of Hayes’ We Haul 2 Play charity, which he started upon moving to China two years ago. Of course, a cycling journey of that magnitude was not without its challenges. In addition to bouts of inclement weather – including the aforementioned sandstorms and headwinds so strong that Hayes and Young Yoo “felt like we’d rode all day and not made any progress at all” – the cyclists encountered an unexpected, governmentenforced road closure, which made for a 400-km adjustment off course, around a lake. Then there were expected language

barriers and the physical toll such a ride takes on the body. “I think at some point, my brain stopped sending signals to my rear end, because by the end of it, I couldn’t feel my butt,” Hayes laughed. “At the end, it was nice to get out of a pair of spandex, believe me.” Hayes said they never once feared for their safety, though an odd experience on their second-to-last night gave him pause. A local restaurant owner had given the men permission to camp out for the night on his establishment’s patio. Midway through, however, a man “who had obviously had a

few too many” showed up, claiming that spot as his own. “He actually dropped a TV on me, and came at me with a rock,” Hayes said. “It sounds bad, but I was never that concerned with him. In the morning, it was actually kind of funny.” The rough patches, as few and far between as they may have been, were erased from memory each time they encountered a new child, he said. “We gave out as much as we could to the people, but there were a few times where we actually had to high-tail it out of there because everyone wanted a ball, but we didn’t have any more,” he said. “You give them a ball or a badminton racquet, and then you see their faces light up. “People watch the Olympics, and they see China cleaning up in the medal count, but that’s because the government takes all these kids from rural areas who show promise, and they put them in sports academies so young. But what about all those other kids? So many of them get left behind, and those are the ones I like to think we helped.”

Capilano got one goal back early in the second half, and despite Kwantlen dominating play over the final 15 minutes, the Eagles couldn’t score a third goal. The Blues pulled even in injury time, scoring off a free kick. At 1-3-0, the Eagles are in fourth place, two back of the Douglas College Royals and Vancouver Island, and one behind the Langara Falcons. Both Kwantlen teams play their first home games Saturday, with Langara, the visitors. The Quest Kermodes are the opposition for Sunday’s contest, also home games at Newton Athletic Park. Kick-off on both days are at noon for the women, and at 2 p.m. for the men.

Sukhleen Gill of Surrey earned her second shut-out of the season. Kwantlen came from behind for the single point Sunday. Trailing 1-0, the Eagles drew even on a goal from Richmond’s Shanay Sangha. The play of first-year midfielder Kaylee Dodds in the midfield and Wadley on the back line set up several Kwantlen scoring chances, but the Eagles couldn’t finish. Now with a 2-1-1 (won-tiedlost) record, the Eagles are tied with the UBC-Okanagan Heat for second place, two points behind the first-place Thompson Rivers University Wolfpack. Kwantlen’s men’s team battled the second-place Islanders for 90 minutes without either side finding the net. While noting a draw was a fair result, head coach Ajit Braich praised a pair of first-year players. “it was a very strong start for our rookies Dalton San (a Holy Cross graduate) and Rylan Sangha (of Richmond) with their enthusiasm which created lots of chances for the team early in the game.” Sunday’s tie was frustrat-

They have yet to play a home game, but the Kwantlen Eagles men’s and women’s soccer teams have a firm grip on a playoff position after two weeks of play. The women slipped into a tie for second place in the PacWest league after a 4-0 victory over the Vancouver Island University Mariners in Nanaimo Saturday and a 1-1 draw with the Capilano Blues in North Vancouver Sunday. The men, one of three unbeaten teams in the eight-team league, played to a pair of ties, playing a scoreless game in Nanaimo and drawing 2-2 against the Blues. The Eagles women got a hat trick from Burnsview Secondary graduate Danyka Wadley in their win over the Mariners. After Dominique Lang opened the scoring on a penalty kick, Wadley headed in a corner kick for a 2-0 lead. She deflected a Lang shot for her second tally, and closed out the scoring on a free kick from 30 yards out. L.A. Matheson graduate

The White RockSouth Surrey Titans midget football team kept its undefeated record intact Sunday, but it was close. The Titans edged the Meadow Ridge Knights 15-9 in Maple Ridge, improving to 3-0 in the Vancouver Mainland Football League. Alex Lane had two catches for 105 total yards and a touchdown, and Riley Born scored the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s other TD. Bornâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s scoring run â&#x20AC;&#x201C; which put the Titans ahead with just three minutes to play â&#x20AC;&#x201C; was set up after a 32-yard reception from Sapreet Chahal, who also added a 22-yard fourthquarter reception. On defence, White Rock held the Knights to just one touchdown, led by Pete Kilberg, who had 10 tackles, a sack

and a forced fumble. Tyler Leader also had a big day, with 11 tackles. In atom action, the Titans edged the South Delta Rams 32-22 at Deltaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Dennison Park. The Titans were led by Beckham Dickie, who scored all five of the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s touchdowns. White Rockâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s peewee, flag and junior bantam football squads both lost their games Sunday, with the flag team falling 11-6 to the South Delta Rams and the peewees and junior bantams losing 19-6 and 24-0, respectively, both against South Delta. All Titans teams are at home Sunday, beginning at 9 a.m. The association will also host its annual Titans Tailgate Party from 11:30 a.m. until 2:30 p.m. in the Semiahmoo Secondary parking lot.

There are several steps you can take to not only shorten the sale time of your home, but help it sell for greater value. The one “mistake” sellers often make is failing to see their home from the perspective of a potential buyer. Here are a few helpful tips to think about: - First, make your home available for showings. This sounds obvious, but one of the most frequent B&W and Color version GREY background complaints of Realtors representing buyers is that they can’t get proper access to the home. - Next, realize that “first impressions are lasting ones.” Drive up to your home as a prospective buyer would. What does the home look like from the street? Is the front yard manicured? Are trees cut back? Pay particular attention to your entry area. www.whiterockrealestate.ca Outstanding - Next, get rid of clutter. The way you live in a home, and the way you sell a home are two very difColonial Pacific Ltd. info@whiterockrealestate.ca ferent things. So eliminate thoseRealty knickknacks and other distractions from the true features of yourOutstandin 15414 - 24th Ave., White Rock home. The less “clutter”, the better. Each Office Independently Owned and Operated Contributor to Children’s Miracle Network - Next, remember that buyers are attracted to your home because of the “lifestyle benefits” they perceive they’ll get by living there. They’re looking for a “home” not a “house.” So highlight those special features. A few areas to think about are the entry impression, the kitchen, master bedroom, and the master bath. Make sure everything is light and bright. Outstanding - Next, fix problems ahead of time. Consider getting a home inspection before you list or show your www.whiterockrealestate.ca home. This will root out any problems a documented “clean bill of health” toOutstandin Colonial Pacific Realty and Ltd. give your home info@whiterockrealestate.ca speed the sale. 15414 - 24th Ave., White Rock

CHILDREN

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved dad, father-in-law and grandpa. Joseph passed away peacefully after a short illness at Peace Arch Hospital and Hospice in White Rock, BC. Joseph was born in Vikartovce, Slovakia and came to Canada in 1949. He met the love of his life, Elvira, in Toronto in 1952; they married and settled in Calgary in 1953. Joe worked with the City of Calgary Electric System up to his retirement and was a member of the IBEW. Joe moved from Calgary to South Surrey (White Rock) in 1997 and will be remembered by his many friends in both Calgary and BC. He is survived by two sons, David (Sandy) of Calgary and Steven (Anna) and two granddaughters, Melaina and Holly, of Bloomington, Ill. Joe is also survived by a brother, Karol, in Slovakia. Joe was predeceased by his wife, Elvira, of 38 years, in 1991. A memorial service will be held on Thursday, September 20 at 1pm in Sts Cyril and Methodius (Slovak) Church, 472 East 8th Ave, New Westminster, BC (www.cyrilmetod.org). The funeral and burial will be held in Calgary the following week. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Peace Arch Hospice. Condolences may be offered at www.fostersgardenchapel.net

‘These homes are for living’

Finding a new Vantage point Rising above the Brentwood area of Burnaby, Embassy Development’s Vantage gives you a brand-new view of the world. “These homes are for living,” says Embassy founder Ryan Bosa. “They are well-thought-out, with the homeowner in mind.” With gourmet kitchens full of stainless-steel appliances and a fullheight stone backsplash and amazing bathrooms with deep soaker tubs in the ensuite are just some of the beautiful features that come standard at Vantage. Large windows to let the natural light flood in and spacious balconies combine to bring the outdoors to you.

Located steps from shopping and restaurants, Vantage is able to take advantage of everything Brentwood has to offer. Schools and recreation are minutes away, and can be accessed by transit just outside your door. Amenities at Vantage itself include a fitness centre, on-site concierge service and a social lounge with a kitchen. Outside, Vantage is surrounded by green space, a children’s play area and a fire pit, making it the perfect place for families of all ages. Homes at Vantage start in the mid $400,000s. For more information visit www.vantagebyembassy.com or call 604-294-3339.

of Clayton Heights herself, she has no shortage of things to say about the neighbourhood. “It offers everything,” she says, adding “I care about this community. ... I’m here to help. People can come to me directly.” Clayton Heights is a rapidly growing neighbourhood, and has amenities to match. Shopping, restaurants, recreation and schools are all within walking distance, and there is easy access to everywhere else in the Lower Mainland due to being near Fraser Highway and Highway 10.

“It’s a very family-friendly development,” says Castro. “You’re away from the hustle and bustle ... (and) Clayton offers so many things for families.” For the month of September, Woodbridge is offering an incentive package for new buyers. It includes two years of no maintenance fees and an upgraded appliance package that has a value of over $8,000. Homes start at $279,900. For more information, visit www.liveatlarue.com or call Castro at 778-885-5790 or the sales centre at 604-575-2263.

‘Clayton offers so many things for families’

A taste of the European life at Woodbridge’s La Rue by Kerry Vital

Woodbridge Homes is bringing Parisian style to Surrey with La Rue, the street you want to live on. La Rue, which means “The Street” in French, is a collection of two- to four-bedroom townhomes in Surrey’s family-friendly Clayton Heights neighbourhood. “This is a fantastic way to get into the market,” says sales manager Andrea Castro. “This is going to be a legacy for years to come.” The homes at La Rue include nine-foot ceilings and chic wood laminate flooring throughout the main living areas, and your choice of two designer colour schemes. The kitchens are perfect for the home chef, with stainless-steel appliances, tons of counter space and a ceramic tile backsplash with mosaic stone accents. The cabinetry is chic and elegant, and is capped off with oil-rubbed bronze hardware as the cherry on the gorgeous kitchen sundae. The floorplans are spacious and inviting, with plenty of space for entertaining or just lounging around. Ranging from over 1,200 to more than 1,600 square feet, there truly is a home for everyone at La Rue.

“

This is a fantastic way to get into the market,” says sales manager Andrea Castro. The master ensuite is relaxing and quiet, with an oversized shower stall with a semi-frameless glass door or a separate tub and shower, depending on your floorplan. The Victorian-profile vanities with his-and-hers porcelain sinks in most plans are a convenient detail that could prevent squabbles, while the huge mirror with its polished edge makes the entire room look larger. Stone countertops are featured here too, complemented by the ceramic tile surrounds of the tub and shower. But the luxury isn’t confined to the master bathroom. The secondary bathrooms include Victorian-profile vanities of their own, as well as a soaker tub, polished chrome bath accessories and laminate countertops. “My favourite part is the beautiful foyer entrance,” Castro says. A resident

The homes at Woodbridge Homes’ La Rue include gorgeous kitchen cabinetry, above, Victorian-profile vanities in the bathrooms, left, and French details on the exterior like iron window boxes and private fenced yards, top.

And naturally, a great kitchen and beautiful finishes are a given at Morgan Crossing. The best part? you’re still just a short walk away from over 60 shops & services in the dynamic Morgan Crossing village! village life means something a little different to everyone.

Or even the fact that your car stays parked more often than not with everything you need right at your doorstep. Whatever village life means to you, one thing is for sure – you will live!
