$175,000 penalty for tree cut Developer must remedy damage, is being fined $25K, and is ordered to provide a $150K security deposit by Kevin Diakiw A LOCAL developer is fuming after being slapped with fines and a damage deposit totalling more than $175,000 for cutting down trees in Newton in August. Paul Bal said the issue has been blown out of proportion in the media, and said if there was damage, it was caused by his subcontractor, JB Demolition. The city said neither Bal or JB Demolition is accepting blame for the cut, which Surrey General Manager of Planning and Development Jean Lamontagne said went Paul Bal beyond city permits and into protected parkland areas and other private lands. City staff also said JB Demolition doesn’t have a Surrey business licence, which would be required to do the tree-cutting work.

Brian Bain

A PIT BULL belonging to a man wellknown to police attacked three people in less than an hour as it went on a vicious rampage through North Surrey in the summer. On Aug. 19, at about 5:30 p.m., Brian Bain was gardening when the black pit bull with white spots jumped his fence and bit his hand. Somehow the gardener was able to shake the dog off.

Forty-five minutes later, the dog then ran to another property and bit another man. That victim was able to get a can of bear spray and repel the dog. Just then, Lilli Leung was heading home, walking down the 13100 block of 107 Avenue at about 6:15 p.m. Suddenly from around the corner, the pit bull appeared. It leapt up, attempting to bite Leung in the face, but she was able to block it with her left arm. See PIT BULL / Page 3

Elderly wife-killer appeals murder conviction

Pit bull: Has been put down From page 1

77-year-old Sabastiano Damin stabbed Maria Catroppa to death in 2009

by Sheila Reynolds

A SuRRey senior who stabbed his wife more than 100 times

when he killed her nearly three years ago wants his seconddegree murder conviction quashed because he was mentally impaired when he did it. Sebastiano Damin, 77, was sentenced last year to life in prison with no chance of parole for 10 years for murdering 69-year-old Maria Catroppa. On Tuesday (Oct. 2) three B.C. Court of Appeal justices heard Damin’s second-degree murder appeal. During the 2011 trial in New Westminster Supreme Court, his defence lawyers sought a lesser conviction of manslaughter, arguing Damin was severely depressed and his cognitive function was impaired at the time of the murder. Damin’s lawyer made a similar argument at the appeal hearing, claiming the trial judge, Justice Ian Josephson, did not give due consideration to testimony from Damin’s psychiatrist. Catroppa’s husband, it was Justice Ian Josephson argued, didn’t know what he was doing when he killed

“This was not a single blow in a heated moment.”

Maria Catroppa was 69 years old when she died at the hands of her husband. her, due to his diminished mental state. On Nov. 24, 2009, Catroppa and Damin were sleeping in separate rooms in their townhouse near 85 Avenue and 164 Street. The court heard Damin woke in the night to get a drink when “something snapped” in his head and he took a steak knife into his wife’s room and stabbed her repeatedly. A forensic pathologist testified Catroppa had been stabbed 126 times. Damin then tried to end his own life, but couldn’t go through with it and called 911. A psychiatrist testified the elderly man said he and his wife, who had been married for about 10 years, had been having relationship troubles and Catroppa wanted him to leave.

In his original judgment, Justice Josephson said Damin’s crime showed the intent required for a second-degree murder conviction. Damin was angry his wife wanted to end the marriage “and that anger motivated the knife attack on the victim,” said Josephson. “This was not a single blow in a heated moment.” The Catroppa family has since become advocates against domestic abuse and shared Maria’s story for the short film “The Honest Truth.” They also established the The Maria Catroppa Memorial Award at Kwantlen Polytechnic University to help single mothers further their education. Judgment on the appeal was reserved to a later date.

She was unsuccessful in knocking the dog away, and the animal kept a lock on her arm. “It happened so fast and caught me by surprise,” Leung said. “The pit bull was instantly vicious and began to repeatedly attack me; it was trying to bite my face.” As it latched on to her left arm, she grabbed her purse with her right arm and attempted to pound the dog off. It was so powerful, Leung lost her footing and fell, and the animal pushed forward, shoving Leung into a hedge. All the while, Leung was screaming for help. A neighbour ran to her, throwing shoes at the pit bull, causing it to let go of her arm. Police arrived to find the pit bull in the back of its owner’s truck. At first the owner – a 32-year-old man who is well-known to police for drug and property crimes – said he was watching the dog for a friend. Then he acknowledged it was his. The pit bull has since been euthanized. But Leung is concerned because she says the man also owns a white pit bull, which she fears could be just as volatile as the first. In the late 1990s, Surrey replaced its breed-specific dog bylaw with legislation placing the onus for safety on owners. The current bylaw is silent on the capability of barring people from owning pets. Mayor Dianne Watts said there should be provision for keeping certain people from Dianne watts owning dogs, but she doesn’t think the city has the authority to make such a determination without a judicial order. Watts reiterated her reluctance to ban any specific breeds, including pit bulls. “The people that are irresponsible, that want to breed and raise vicious dogs, they will just change to a different breed,” Watts said. “It’s the people that have care and control of the dog that need to be held responsible.”

Family ‘shattered’ by hit-and-run outside temple Nephew appeals to driver after man critically injured by Kevin Diakiw

BOAZ JOSEPH / THE LEADER

with RCMP Const. Burt Paquet behind him, Ramneet Sandhu, 20, describes his uncle’s jaw injury after the 49-year-old was hit by a car in newton on Saturday evening. The hit-and-run collision left Jagdev Singh Toor with serious injuries, and police are seeking the driver of a burgundy-coloured car.

Down on his luck, Jagdev Singh Toor was spending time at the Gurdwara Sahib Dasmesh Darbar Sikh temple last week when his luck took a turn for the worse. During his stay, Toor was volunteering at the gurdwara, operating a leaf blower just outside one of the gates of the temple, located at 115-12885 85 Ave., on Saturday, Sept. 29 at about 9 p.m. At about that time, he was mowed down by a speeding car, which roared away, leaving him lying by the side of the road near 130 Street and 86 Avenue. Toor’s jaw was broken in about five places, and he suffered a broken leg and injuries to the ribs on the right side of his body. Toor, 49, remains in critical condition in hospital. His nephew appeared at a press conference at Surrey RCMP headquarters Tuesday morning asking for anyone with information to come forward, or better yet, for the person responsible to do the right thing.

“To the driver, I’d like him to show up and accept what he did,” said Ramneet Sandhu. “He hit my uncle, that was a bad thing. He ran away after that bad thing, and that’s not human nature.” The family has been devastated by the news of the accident, he said. “Everyone was shattered when they heard of that incident,” said Sandhu. “Now his life is in danger, his situation is critical.” Sandhu said at this point his uncle can’t remember much about the accident. “He’s not able to talk, so he can’t say anything.” Police are searching for a reddish-burgundy vehicle with severe front-end and windshield damage. The Surrey RCMP traffic section is also reviewing several surveillance tapes provided by numerous businesses in the area. Mounties are appealing to body shop workers to report any suspicious vehicles coming into the shop that are reddish-burgundy in colour. Anyone with any information about the accident is asked to call the Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502.

Investigations: by City of Surrey and the DFO From page 1

In August, the city gave permission for Bal to cut down 39 trees on his property at 5904 144 St. to make room for two residential lots. When JB Demolition arrived, those trees were cut down, along with several others in a park, along a riverbed, and on two private properties. City staff allege that the heavy equipment was delivered to the west side of the property and was driven over a tributary of Hyland Creek to work on the east portion of the land. Damage to the creek bed caught the immediate attention of the Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO), which launched an investigation. So did the City of Surrey. Don Luymas, Surrey’s manager of community planning, said it’s not clear who was at fault for the cut, but added for the city’s purposes, it doesn’t matter. The developer, who is in charge of the project, must take ultimate responsibility for his subtrades, Luymas said. Bal insists the tree cut was not his fault. He said the media blew the issue out of proportion, adding he

In all, the total bill for Bal will be more than $175,000. The bulk of that (about $150,000) is a security deposit to ensure restoration work in the park is still viable in three years, and the city says a $25,400 fine is for what it believes were 14 trees protected by Surrey’s bylaw taken down on private properties. Bal said there were

only nine trees that came down without permits. He noted not even the profits from the development are likely to cover the cost of fines and deposits. “I don’t think so, not at all, zero,” Bal said. If Bal believes his subcontractor is responsible for the damage, he can seek remedies through legal action. “If I have no choice, I will,” Bal said. He’s not sure the subcontractor has the financial means to cover the bill. Bal’s remediation plan has yet to be reviewed and accepted by both the City of Surrey and the DFO. A stop work order will remain on the property until the city and DFO sign off on the plan.

SMH cut off by closures

on Sunday, Sept. 30, I had to get to

Surrey Memorial Hospital to meet my 72-year-old mother, who was being brought in by ambulance. On my way from Cloverdale along Fraser Highway, the road was closed, and so were all other direct roads to the hospital. All this for a marathon. The marathon route was done in such a way that the hospital was surrounded by road closures for this event... not very well thought out. Surrey is a huge city. I think a route could have been found elsewhere without putting emergency services to hospital at risk. Thankfully my mother is fine, but I don’t know about others who had to endure that stupidity. Just ask any ambulance drivers who had to deal with it. Mark Loberg

We need the arts

I have a question for columnist

Tom Fletcher (re: “Swapping sociology for socket sets,” The Leader, Sept. 25). If post-secondary students are discouraged from taking English and sociology programs, then who is going to teach the English classes and provide the much-needed social services to those British Columbians that require them? Or become journalists who write articles in local newspapers? Certainly not the engineering students who are busy making robots for science fairs. Not everyone is born with the natural skills to excel in the maths and sciences. In my case, I would not be able to pass a calculus or physics class if my life depended on it. The real reason that many arts graduates cannot find full-time work is that short-sighted politicians continue to devalue the arts, as evidenced by the severe budget cuts in the arts and community social services sectors in the past few years. Arts and community social services programs cannot survive on the generosity of volunteers alone. Everyone needs to get paid a living wage as part of being valued members in a progressive society. The time has come to value everyone’s contribution, whether they are scientists or social service workers. Adele Cameron

a letter writer says the first Surrey International music marathon was a success and is looking forward to this annual event.

Thanks for a ‘heartwarming’ marathon

I dIdn’T run in the inaugural Surrey International Music Marathon (on Sunday, Sept. 30), but did have a heartwarming experience. I watched the runners go by on 100 Avenue at 144 Street. The official volunteer at the location had herself run in the Boston Marathon, so I was able to get many insights about the race. There were runners of all shapes, sizes and running styles. One lady had a big tall hat and a flowing robe. Some alternated running and walk-

ing. One lady was jogging with a young lad in a wheelchair; another was pushing her toddler in a trike with large wheels. That is uplifting to see. We cheered on the runners one and all. Across 144 Street was a Sikh gentleman shouting encouragement, sometimes in Punjabi. Two ladies came by hoping to see Fauja Singh, the 101-year-old running the Mayor’s 5K. It was a source of satisfaction for me to see many South Asian women running and there were lots of men, too.

The level of participation was wonderful. I hope this annual event will inspire a lot more Surrey citizens into physical activity. This and other events like the Fusion Festival promote a sense of community. We’ve got it all here and don’t have to look to Vancouver. Thanks for a heartwarming experience and community participation. Dave Bains

Get ready for liquid slop and resulting rats

I commend Surrey for implementing a new waste program that removes organic waste from landfills. However, the program relies on building occupants, most of whom have lived with the old garbage bag system all their lives, to now responsibility and judiciously separate food wastes – with few options for how to avoid a complete mess. Dry food, such as mouldy bread, potato chips and vegetables are not a problem. They can be tossed into the organics cart and then the garbage truck with little mess. But what about food wastes with liquids, like that old beef stew, or those rotten tomatoes, or that smelly can of sardines in sauce? The city advised me to simply put some newspaper on the bottom of the organics cart. But I can imagine the mess when the organics cart, full of liquid foods, is picked up and dumped into the garbage truck – bits of squishy foods that fall onto the ground and are left in the cart. Residents are advised to rinse the cart out on their front yard, which will also leave food wastes buried in the lawn. The result will be an increase in the rat population which suddenly finds tasty little morsels left all over the block. Of course, we can purchase the

special little food waste bags lined with a compostable cellulose at a few depots around the city. But these bags should be available in different sizes at all the hardware and big box stores for convenient purchase. Watery, liquid food wastes are going to be a problem. Irresponsible residents will simply put all that slop into a plastic bag and look for the nearest dumpster, or toss it into the nearest bush. I suggest Surrey property owners make sure all dumpsters are locked and prepare for an onslaught of rats.

houses in Surrey have narrow roads and some do not have even car garages to store these bins. The waste collection bins are too big to be accommodated in the garages or to be stored outside. Many residents will be forced to keep these bins on the roadside that will make the place look like a big trash centre. Though the city does offer smaller bins, those cost $25 per bin. How can the city force a size on unsuspecting residents and then charge them if one size does not fit all? While the city may save costs with this program in the name of recycling, the system taxes people as they will have to buy bags to deal with organic trash and to wash those regularly to keep those clean and avoid bad odour. That will lead to waste of water and higher water bills for those with meters. What about those who are single, retired or too old to handle these humongous monstrosities and don’t even need so much capacity? Maybe the mayor and the City of Surrey have a larger plan to create more jobs as more people will be needed to deal with raccoons and rats in near future. Or is it their HST moment? Parminder Singh President Scottsdale Village Strata Council

Reduce and reuse first Re: “oveRhaulIng garbage”

(Frank Bucholtz, The Leader, Sept. 27) is a worthy goal. But isn’t it about time we reviewed the three Rs – especially “reducing?” Recycling bins continue to be filled with packaging from all kinds of products as we proudly talk about how well we are stewarding the resources of the environment. But it’s about time we had a refresher course on how to reduce the amount of wasteful materials we take into our homes and refuse to buy over-packaged products (I mean 24 rolls of toilet paper, each individually wrapped in plastic, then covered in yet another layer of the stuff) and reject goods that come in so many layers of garbage that end up in those lovely, shiny, new recycling bins. And don’t get me started on the stacks of store flyers that get dumped into recycling bins every week without even being opened by residents, many of whom – if they had the choice – wouldn’t get them in the first place. Congratulations to Surrey on its new program. Now, how about a public relations program educating people about the first “R?”

Drivers warned about tolling security breach 99% of registered Port Mann accounts unaffected by Jeff Nagel More than 270 drivers who have just registered

for the new Port Mann Bridge tolling system are being warned a privacy breach may have compromised their accounts. An unauthorized employee who got the job in the Coquitlam service centre under false pretences and took the registrations of affected drivers by phone was fired Friday and is under investigation by the RCMP, Transportation Investment Corp. CEO Mike Proudfoot said. “This person was not who he claimed to be when he was hired,” Proudfoot said. He said the only affected customers are those who dealt with the worker by phone and they are receiving registered letters advising of the incident so they can watch their accounts for any unauthorized transactions. “There’s no evidence to indicate that personal information has been compromised,” Proudfoot said, calling the letters a “precaution.” He said accounts that were set up by drivers online – rather than by phone through the service centre – are unaffected. “The vast majority of our accounts are registered online and the payment information is encrypted and cannot be accessed by any employee.” So far, about 50,000 TReO tolling accounts have been set up covering 80,000 vehicles, meaning less

than one per cent of accounts were at risk. Port Mann Bridge users who register before March get half-price tolls for the first year as well as 20 free crossings if they sign up before December. The fired worker was with tolling contractor Trans-Canada Flow and Proudfoot said the firm is taking the matter “very seriously.” He said the TI Corp.’s immediate steps included conducting an internal review, calling in the RCMP, notifying B.C.’s Information and Privacy Commissioner and setting up dedicated phone lines where anyone affected can call and speak to a privacy specialist. Asked if the incident may reduce public confidence and slow the TReO sign-up rate, Proudfoot said it should not. “I’m confident the system is secure,” he said. “The integrity of the tolling system has not been compromised.” B.C. Freedom of Information and Privacy Association executive director Vincent Gogolek said the incident sounds serious and such breaches can allow criminals to commit not just credit card fraud but identity theft. “When you have these very large collections of personal data and personal information it becomes attractive,” he said. “If this stuff is valuable to Facebook it is also valuable to criminals.”

A class act at W.E. Kinvig W.E. Kinvig Elementary teacher Mathew Zadvorny (centre with his class) had his hair shaved off for cancer at the Surrey school Friday afternoon. Zadvorny was inspired by his father, who is currently fighting the disease, and Jackie Lunot, a teacher at the school who lost her battle with cancer in January. Zadvorny, along with all the students and staff, had set out to raise $500 for cancer research, but easily surpassed that goal, collecting more than $3,000.

sand may be the first female graduates of SFU Surrey’s Mechatronic Systems Engineering (MSE) program but they certainly won’t be the last. Following their footsteps are another 41 young women – about 10 per cent of program’s total – who have since enrolled in the popular undergraduate program, which launched in 2007. Both grads would like to see more women apply their skills in the field. “So much about engineering focuses on it being a maledominant area of study,” says Luo, who came to SFU from China, where she says women engineers are plentiful. She began her studies in business at SFU before being attracted to the MSE program. Luo has worked as a co-op student for Telus, learning technical as well as character-building skills during her one-year term. She is currently working at Netricom, a design contractor for Telus. Her father is an engineer and she grew up with an avid interest in discovering how things work. Khorsand, whose family moved between Iran and Vancouver while

For her

capstone project, Khorsand and her peers created a prototype of a motorcycle visor that provided a “head’s up” display, providing details on speed, navigational aid and notices of calls and text messages, designed to aid the motorcyclist while driving. The MSE program graduated its first students last fall. In all, 25 MSE students are graduating this term, bringing the total number of grads to 52. One of SFU Surrey’s most popular programs, MSE integrates mechanical, electrical and software engineering to address the growing demand in the high-tech world.

The Surrey School District was recognized last

month for its exceptional contribution to the success of the Surrey 2012 B.C. Summer Games. Surrey 2012 B.C. Summer Games president Bill McNamara and Games director (and Panorama Ridge Secondary principal) Kevin DeBoice presented a plaque to board chair Laurae McNally and Supt. Mike McKay. Underneath gold, silver and bronze medals from the Games, the plaque mcnally reads: “In appreciation of Surrey School District’s integral partnership with the City of Surrey. Your two-year commitment of time, staff, district volunteers, facilities, equipment and expertise was paramount in the staging of a very successful and extraordinary British Columbia Summer Games, July 19-20, 2012.” McNally also received a framed poster with a series of student photos taken of the Games in appreciation for her extensive volunteering and involvement in representing the district.

Two elemenTary schools are one step closer to

reality now that builders have been chosen for the projects. Olivit Construction Ltd. won the bid to build Goldstone Park Elementary, at 6286 146 St. A total of six bids were submitted to the school district, the lowest being Olivit’s at $9.9 million and the highest at $10.7 million. Pro-Can Construction Group submitted the lowest bid to win the contract to build Katzie Elementary, at 6887 194A St. Pro-Can’s bid of $9.8 million was about $1.5 million less than the highest of the seven bidders. Names for the new schools, which should open in the next two years, were chosen this summer based on their location and historical significance. Goldstone was named for an adjacent park, while Katzie honours the traditional lands of the Katzie First Nation, on which the new school will be built.

New president at Kwantlen Alan Davis says university has ‘enormous’ promise

by Sheila Reynolds He’s been at his post since the beginning of September, but Dr. Alan Davis was officially sworn in as the new president and vicechancellor of Kwantlen Polytechnic University at a ceremony Tuesday afternoon. During his “installation” at the Surrey campus on 72 Avenue, Davis said though he started at Kwantlen about a month ago, he’s only now beginning to understand the “excitement and complexity” of what lies ahead. Telling personal anecdotes and sharing laughs with his academic colleagues

and the audience, he spoke about forming his vision for Kwantlen, saying “its promise is enormous” as it expands programs and opportunities for students. Davis is the sixth president of the institution, which has campuses in Surrey, Langley and Richmond. Representatives of staff, faculty and students each delivered formal greetings to the new president and members of the Kwantlen First Nation, whose land the university is on, also performed the Kwantlen Honour Song to welcome Davis.

Port Kells blast sparks fire by Natasha Jones

An explosion and series of smaller blasts engulfed a Port Kells trucking business in an inferno on Tuesday afternoon. The fire sent a massive cloud of dense black smoke into the air, where it could be seen miles away. One man, who was one of five in the Ken Johnson Trucking company’s shop at 9807 196A St., suffered burns to his back. He was airlifted to Vancouver General Hospital. His condition is not known, but sources say he was able to walk to a ground ambulance. The explosion was so intense that it blew parts of the tanker on which the injured man had been working over the other side of the Golden Ears Bridge ramp. It was a miracle that no one was killed, said Langley Township’s assistant fire chief, Bruce Ferguson. “It’s obvious that the explosion was the cause of the fire, but what caused the explosion is still to be determined,” Ferguson said. Damage from the blast and fire is expected to exceed $1 million.

Businesses push for transit funding reform Concerns raised over expansion plans, existing service

by Jeff Nagel It’s no surprise when transit apostles demand more money for TransLink. But calls to reform funding for transit are now coming from an unusual corner – business groups that usually focus more on whether trucks can haul cargo efficiently. They fear the impasse between Metro Vancouver mayors and the province over how to finance TransLink may block transit expansion plans for years and even reduce existing service, clogging roads with car commuters who could be more efficiently carried by bus or rail. “There seems to be some sense that if you represent business you don’t care about transit,” B.C. Trucking Association (BCTA) president Louise Yako said, adding that’s dead wrong. The BCTA is one of the business groups that have begun quiet talks in hopes of finding a fix for TransLink’s cash woes. Yako noted more secure funding sources for transit would benefit the whole region – and avert disaster. “TransLink is facing the wall,” she said. “We have a very short window of time to try and come up with a solution that is palatable for most people.” The organizer who has brought the business groups together is Bob Wilds, managing director of the Greater Vancouver Gateway

Council, which represents port, airport and other transportation business interests. Wilds, who helped persuade the province to build the new Port Mann Bridge and other Gateway program projects, agrees transit service can’t be allowed to atrophy while the population and vehicle traffic keep climbing. “You can’t expect to solve this problem without looking at difficult and innovative ways of doing it,” he said. “Maybe we need road pricing. Maybe we need systemwide tolling. Those are the kinds of things we think we need to look at.” Billions of dollars are being spent in the region on port-related Gateway roads and infrastructure, he noted. “It will be wasted if we can’t be competitive,” Wilds said, adding road congestion and high gas taxes could easily drive container traffic away to rival ports. The business groups don’t want to give TransLink a blank cheque for expansion. Part of the challenge, they suggest, is to determine the maximum amount of revenue the region could reasonably generate for TransLink through new mechanisms – and then ratchet back spending demands to fit the funding envelope. “Everybody wants everything but there’s a finite amount of money we can generate,” Wilds said. “Maybe we have to revisit

our ideas of what we want to have here.” Alternately, he said, maybe senior governments can be persuaded they need to give TransLink ongoing operational funding, rather than just one-time capital cost sharing. That case could be made, he said, based on Metro Vancouver’s critical role as Canada’s AsiaPacific gateway. “I don’t think it’s reasonable for local citizens to bear the full brunt of it,” Wilds said. TransLink needs new funding sources because one of its biggest ones – the gas tax – has proved unreliable and is generating less money as cars get more efficient, more drivers fill up outside Metro Vancouver and transit use rises. The real estate development industry has also entered the debate. Urban Development Institute CEO Anne McMullin said project developers have increasingly become believers in strong transit after recent projects on the Canada Line swiftly sold out. She said TransLink needs a suite of new funding options, not a strategy that relies too heavily on either property taxpayers or vehicle drivers alone. The business interests aim to first agree on key principles before developing specific recommendations to TransLink, the province and the mayors.

Cities push for B.C.wide shark fin ban

Cross-border cash drain debated

Oil tanker traffic growth opposed

the cash drain on local

B.c. civic leaders voted

Delegates at the

businesses from cross-

by a razor-thin margin to

oppose oil pipeline projects that would expand tanker traffic in coastal waters. The resolution passed in a nearly split electronic vote, with 51.3 per cent of delegates in favour and 48.7 per cent opposed. “We rely solely and wholly upon the oceans for its many resources,” said Skeena-Queen Charlotte Regional District Director Des Nobles, one of several delegates who said the risks of B.C. carrying more oil to the Pacific far outweigh the benefits. Opponents of the resolution cited the damaging signal it would send of B.C.’s openness to business before environmental reviews are complete. Enbridge is in a joint review process on its proposed Northern Gateway bitumen pipeline to Kitimat, while Kinder Morgan is in an earlier stage of its plans to expand its existing Trans

Mountain oil pipeline from northern Alberta to Burnaby. “The oil in Canada is going to come out of the ground and it’s going to find its way to market,” said Prince George Mayor Shari Green, who opposed the resolution. She said Alberta oil sands crude might flow to tidewater through Alaska or Washington State instead of B.C. Kinder Morgan already has a branch of its Trans Mountain oil pipeline that also reaches the coast in Washington

CELEBRATING

YEARS

Union of B.C. Municipalities (UBCM) convention –which wrapped up last week in Victoria – voted by a wide margin to ask the province to outlaw the possession or sale of shark fins that Chinese restaurants turn into coveted bowls of shark fin soup. Activists have been going from city to city in Metro Vancouver convincing councils to impose local bans but North Vancouver City Coun. Craig Keating said a provincial ban is preferable, along with a federally imposed ban on shark fin imports, to combat the “inhumane and wasteful” practice of harvesting sharks for fins.

border shopping inspired one UBCM resolution that generated debate. Castlegar council proposed a resolution to lobby the federal government to rescind its recent loosening of overnight duty free limits, which significantly increased the value of goods Canadians can bring back after trips of at least 24 hours. “The federal government is encouraging us to go across the border and increase our spending,” Castlegar Coun. Dan Rye said. But the motion was defeated after Creston Coun. Wesly Graham opposed it and said Ottawa should simply tighten the current lax collection of duties and taxes by Canadian border guards.

apportioned equitably to other municipalities. “The current regulations are pitting communities against each other,” he said. “It’s creating an injustice between local governments around the province.” Port Coquitlam reps said they didn’t intend for host cities to lose money, suggesting the province could keep them whole while providing a per capita share of gaming profits to the have-nots – a scenario many at UBCM considered unlikely.

Rabbit rampage sparks call for pet store ban B.C. Cities are demanding the province ban

pet stores from selling unsterilized bunnies to help quell a plague of fast-breeding feral rabbits in public parks and green spaces. UBCM delegates voted 55 per cent to support a prohibition after Delta Coun. Bruce McDonald recounted the costs and challenges of dealing with abandoned rabbits that overran the grounds around Delta’s municipal hall. “We spent $350,000 replacing and repairing the damage done by the bunnies after we removed them,” he said. Bunnies are often bought close to Easter to delight children but are later turned loose in parks when they turn out to be peskier pets than families expected, he said. “The pet shops don’t really care what they do,” McDonald said. Stores don’t want to sterilize baby bunnies because they’re too young, he added, and they’re usually sold by the time they are old enough.

Looser festival booze backed Despite ConCern from some delegates, UBCM

agreed to back a liquor licensing reform that would let adults drink in the presence of minors at music festivals and certain other special events. The Whistlersponsored resolution aims to let families enjoy an event together, rather than forcing patrons who want alcohol into a segregated, enclosed beer garden. Some opponents said B.C. should be moving away from the culture of alcohol at entertainment events, not reinforcing it.

Moore stands by coast guard base cut JAmes moore is

defending the federal government’s decision to cut the Kitsilano coast guard base in Vancouver, saying the city will still have the highest level of coastal rescue response in the country. The senior Conservative cabinet minister in B.C. also took direct aim at Vancouver politicians, accusing Mayor Gregor Robertson of failing to raise his concerns directly with Ottawa before his council fired a political broadside.

“He has never phoned me, he has never contacted the prime minister,” Moore told reporters after speaking to the UBCM convention. “The City of Vancouver could try to pick up the phone.” Moore said the federal government is sticking to the decision to cut the Kitsilano base and increase the response capacity at Sea Island in Richmond as well as volunteer responders, but added Ottawa would reassess required service levels in future years. Vancouver councillors had accused Conservative MPs of dodging their repeated demands to meet on the base closure. Vancouver city hall officials challenged Moore’s account, saying council voted Sept. 18 to pursue meetings with the PM and Robertson wrote to him June 14, urging the decision be reversed. Widespread concern has been raised in Vancouver and the surrounding region that the closure will reduce rescue response times and increase the risk of fatalities.

Giving you some time back at Morgan Crossing

Living the artistic life at the lofts at The Summit House by Kerry Vital

The Summit House is bringing a touch of loft style to South Surrey’s Morgan Crossing. With all the beautiful features of the other Summit House homes as well as some new details of their own, these limited-edition lofts are a cut above the rest. “These aren’t typical condos,” says Bryan Woolley, president of Fingerprint Strategies Inc. “They’re not cookiecutter at all.” Built by Larco Investments, the two-bedroom homes feature the master bedroom and living areas on the first floor with a loft on the second floor that can be used for a bedroom, media room, library, art studio or a romantic retreat. The spacious layouts are open and inviting, and feature plenty of room for entertaining or relaxing. The homes range from 1,026 to 1,261 square feet, and include huge windows to allow in plenty of natural light. “These are the only lofts available in South Surrey,” says Woolley. “There’s been a lot of interest in these great floorplans.” In fact, nearly half of the 13 lofts have already been sold. Some of the beautiful features in the lofts include gas cooktops, soft-close cabinetry in the kitchen and incredibly high ceilings at almost 22 feet. Gorgeous hardwood laminate floors are included throughout the main living areas, while the bedrooms feature carpeting that is perfect for sinking your toes into. Electric fireplaces are cozy and inviting, while the large outdoor patios and balconies give you your own outdoor space. The cabinetry and gas cooktop aren’t the only great things about the kitchens. The 1 3/4-inch quartz countertops and glass or ceramic tile backsplash are chic and modern, while the stainless-steel appliances are a gourmet’s dream. Homeowners at The Summit House are able to take advantage of some pretty lovely amenities, including a private rooftop plaza that features a community garden, barbecue and fire pit. However, one of the best features at The Summit House is the amazing mountain views from many of the suites. They have proven inspirational in many ways. “The lofts have been attracting artists and other creative types,” says Woolley. The Morgan Crossing village has

been the biggest draw to the homes, Woolley says. With tons of shopping, eateries and leisure activities in the area, there is never a shortage of things to do. “It’s so convenient,” he says, adding “it feels like a real community.” Even dogs will find their perfect place in Morgan Crossing, with its Paws Crossing dog park. The village is perfect for those looking to meet people. Larco regularly holds community events, including hockey tournaments and fashion shows. “There is a very eclectic mix of owners,” says Woolley. The range of demographics include a 19-year-old who bought the place on his own to a 92-year-old who enjoys the vibrant atmosphere of Morgan Crossing. The convenience factor is really an integral part of the community,

“

These are the only lofts available in South Surrey,” says Bryan Woolley, president of Fingerprint Strategies.

Men’s, women’s teams at tournments in Winnipeg

Four United teams at nationals by Rick Kupchuk One team has the experience of being there

may times before, the other is making its first appearance in almost a decade. But the fact that the Surrey United Soccer Club has qualified both its men’s and women’s team for the national championship tournament this weekend in Winnipeg is a rare feat for a group that has been seeking the “double” for a decade. “It’s an honour to have both teams here,” said United club executive director Martin Foden yesterday from Winnipeg, an hour before the men played their first game. “It’s a unique accomplishment, something we’ve been waiting for for a number of years.” Surrey United won the Provincial Cup men’s soccer tournament in 2003, advancing to the nationals as B.C. champions. A year later, the United women’s team did the same. The difference is, the women have won every Provincial Cup title since. The men didn’t win a Martin Foden second title until doing so last spring. Now both are in Winnipeg, giving their club a rare chance to win a pair of national championships. But Foden knows winning either one will be a difficult task. “It’s tough competition,” he said. “And we know the quality of the opposition will be good. Every team is here because they are a provincial champion. There are no easy games.” The women’s tournament has two groups of five teams each, with round robin play taking place the first five days of the competition. The two first place teams will play for the national championship and the Jubilee Trophy Monday at 9:30 a.m. (CDT). Surrey United is the defending national champion, and is in a group with the WSA North Stars of Manitoba, the Edmonton Angels, Yellowknife FC, and Saskatchewan. The men’s team will compete for the Challenge Trophy. United is in a group that also includes Hells SC of Manitoba, and Edmonton Scottish. Two of the three teams will advance to the eight-team playoff Saturday through Monday.

“it’s an honour to have both teams here.”

n Surrey United also has two youth teams at national championship tournaments. At the under-14 boys tournament in Vaughn, Ontario, United will kickoff against Mount Pearl of Newfoundland and Labrador today (Thursday), before their second and final round robin game Friday against

Wednesday morning. Joel Waterman, Kyle Sohi, Manveer Dhillon and Mathew Bains scored for Surrey. United will play three more round robin games, needing to finish first in a group that also includes teams from Quebec, Alberta and Saskatchewan to play in Monday’s championship game.

Sunday in Coquitlam, the Eagles lost for the first time this season after completing the first half of their schedule with three wins and four ties. The Royals scored both goals in the first half for a 2-0 victory. Kwantlen will play its final two home games of the season next weekend, hosting the seventh place UBC-Okanagan Heat Saturday, and the fifth place Thompson Rivers

University Wolfpack Sunday. Both games kickoff at 2 p.m. at Newton Athletic Park. For the women, playing to a pair of draws with a seventhplace Douglas team was a disappointment to the Eagles. The Royals got the first goal Saturday after just 10 minutes to play, but Kwantlen replied with a goal from North Delta’s Cheley Lal from the penalty spot in the second half in what would be a 1-1 tie. Chelea Jewell, a Sands Secondary graduate, got her first start in goal Sunday in Coquitlam and earned a shutout in a scoreless tie with the Royals. With a 3-3-2 (won-tie-loss) record, the Eagles are a point back of second place the Langara Falcons, and one ahead of the UBC-Okanagan Heat. Kwantlen is at home twice next weekend, with two games at noon at Newton Athletic Park. The Heat visit Saturday, with the first-place Thompson Rivers University Wolfpack the opponent on Sunday.

The Kwantlen Eagles had a loss and a tie in two games against the first place Douglas Royals, and although they are now tied for third with the Langara Falcons they are still in a playoff position with six games to play. “This weekend was another step in the learning process of our young team,” sad head coach Ajit Braich. “However, it has showed that we can compete with the best.” Douglas and the Vancouver Island Mariners share top spot, each with five wins a three ties in eight games played.

the Cariboo Cougars used a pair of four-goal second periods to sweep a two-game series with the Valley West Hawks last weekend in Langley. The Prince Georgebased team edged the Hawks 5-4 and 4-3 at the George Preston Recreation Centre, remaining in first place in the 11-team BC Hockey Major Midget League. The Hawks dropped to a tie for fifth place with a 2-2-0 (won-losstied) record. Valley West led early on both games. Saturday evening, they took a 2-1 lead after 20 minutes, with goals by Cloverdale’s Jakub Stukel and Darien Craighead of Surrey sandwiched around a Cariboo score. The two teams traded goals in the first half of the second period, then the Cougars tallied three times in a four-minute span to take a 5-3 lead into the third period. Stukel’s second of the game got the Hawks to within one, then Cole Plotnikoff of Surrey netted the third goal. Sunday morning, the Hawks again jumped

to an early lead. Parker Wotherspoon of Cloverdale and Surrey’s Spencer Unger had the home team ahead 2-0 after a period of play. The Cougars tied the

game before Eric Callegari of Langley put the Hawks up 3-2 with six minutes left in the second period. The Cougars got goals 27 seconds apart in the final two minutes of play to take the

lead, which stood up through a scoreless third period. The Hawks are in Victoria next weekend for two games with the South Island Royals, a team which is off to a 1-2-1 start.

The Panthers used the big play to overwhelm New Westminster. Jamel Lyles scored first on a 67-yard touchdown run, and Taylor Anderson followed up with a 47-yard pass reception for another major score. Quarterback Connor McKay ran 50 yards for a third score, then threw a 55-yard pass to Cody Faulkner for a 27-0 Panthers lead. The Hyacks scored on a long run, and had an opportunity to gain some momentum. That opportunity was dashed when Joe Carter of Lord Tweedsmuir returned the kickoff 80 yards to the end zone. Short runs for two touchdowns by McKay completed the scoring. Ryan Godard and Nick Andrews led the defense, each with seven tackles. The Panthers host the Terry Fox Ravens tomorrow (Friday) at 3:30 p.m. at Lord Tweedsmiur Secondary. The Ravens also won their first regular season game, a 13-7 victory over the Notre Dame Jugglers.

Entry-level earnings start at $30.79/hour to $40.42/hour. Train Locally – The only program of its kind in BC, students can learn within their local communities via distance education, local and/or regional clinical placements, and some regional classroom delivery. This 23 month program is accredited by the College of Registered Psychiatric Nurses of BC (CRPNBC). Government student loans, Employment & Labour Market Services (ELMS), band funding & other ﬁnancing options available to qualiﬁed applicants.

Only a working smoke alarm can save your life! Fire Prevention Week oct. 7-14

Smoke alarms save lives

“Fall back” to smart home safety

As most Canadians turn back the clocks on November 4, here are some timely smoke and carbon monoxide (CO) safety tips: • When you change your clocks, test your smoke arlam. • You have less than three minutes to escape a fire. So when smoke alarms sound, everyone must know what to do and where to go. Having and practising an escape plan is essential. • Install one smoke alarm on every storey and outside bedrooms. Install inside bedrooms if you sleep with doors closed. • Ensure all smoke alarms are fully powered. Never take out batteries or remove an alarm from ceiling due to a false alarm. • If your home has any fuel-burning devices such as a gas furnace, gas water heater, gas appliances, or an attached garage or carport, install at least one CSAapproved carbon monoxide outside all sleeping areas. One per storey is recommended.

• Replace smoke alarms every 10 years, and CO alarms every 7-10 years (depending on manufacturer) whether battery operated or hardwired into your home’s electrical system. Carbon monoxide is colourless, odourless and tasteless. So without a CO alarm, humans cannot detect its presence. Despite the average home having several potential sources of the deadly gas, studies show that nearly 60 per cent of Canadians have not installed a CO alarm. In addition to being impossible to detect, CO also has another nefarious trait. Symptoms of carbon monoxide exposure mimic the flu, without the fever. It is routinely responsible for thousands of clinic and hospital visits each year, and is commonly misdiagnosed. Prolonged or extreme exposure causes nausea, dizziness, confusion, the loss of physical mobility, brain damage and ultimately, death. More home safety resources can be found on the www. safeathome.ca web site.

niors will often need assistance from family members to put safety measures into place. As well, family members are in the best position to reinforce the precautions necessary to help their loved ones prevent or respond to a fire. Focus on these six priorities to help aging family members protect themselves against fire in the home.

The Surrey Fire Fighters Association has had a proud tradition of serving the community we work and live in since 1957. With the support from the City of Surrey and the Surrey Fire Service, the Association administers the Surrey Fire Fighters’ Charitable Society, working to fulfill needs that are not met in our community, with special focus on Surrey’s children, youth and families. The Charitable Society has been changing lives in Surrey since it was founded in 1994. We can proudly say that all of the money donated goes directly to helping Surrey’s citizens. Our commitment to our community permeates all aspects of our work and is an integral part of the culture in which we work. Mission Statement: To provide charitable programs that benefit the citizens of our community and to assist other charities within the community that have similar goals and objectives.

Analysis was undertaken on almost 50,000 fires that occurred in Alberta, British Columbia, and Ontario over a 5-year period involving 663 fatalities. The findings demonstrated that the death rate per 1,000 fires in the absence of a present, functioning smoke alarm was 74% greater than when a functioning smoke alarm was present.

Thanksgiving turkey fires cause for concern at 9-1-1 centre E -Comm’s fire dispatch team is warning families to be mindful of their turkey cooking during Thanksgiving weekend. “A turkey isn’t something you typically see on a list of household fire hazards, but we get 9-1-1 calls about ovens going up in flames all the time,” says Corey Kelso, E-Comm fire dispatcher. “The result can be devastating if you’re not careful every time you have something cooking for an extended period of time.”

E-Comm has received some odd calls to 9-1-1 before – including someone wanting to know how long to cook a turkey – but a turkey fire is no joke. In fact, it is a leading cause of spikes in 9-1-1 calls over the holidays. “A flame in your oven can start easily and escalate quickly,” says Kelso. “Oil drippings through a thin tinfoil turkey pan or bits of leftover food residue inside your oven are extremely flammable in a high temperature setting.”

Many fatal fires start at night

Investigations into home fire deaths very often find that a smoke alarm did not sound. It may have been disconnected or not in working order. The batteries may have been dead, or someone may have taken them out. Smoke alone won’t necessarily wake you up. In fact, the fumes could put you into an even deeper sleep. Often, victims never wake up. Se-

COMMUNITY FOCUSED, COMMUNITY DRIVEN

■ INSTALL smoke alarms inside every bedroom, outside each sleeping area and on every level of the home, including the basement. ■ Larger homes may need ADDITIONAL smoke alarms to provide enough protection. ■ For the best protection, INTERCONNECT all smoke alarms so when one sounds they all sound. ■ An IONIZATION smoke alarm is generally more responsive to flaming fires and a PHOTOELECTRIC smoke alarm is generally more responsive to smoldering fires. For the best protection, both types of alarms or combination ionization and photoelectric alarms (also known as dual sensor alarms) are recommended. ■ Smoke alarms should be INSTALLED away from the kitchen to prevent false alarms. Generally, they should be at least 10 feet (3 meters) from a cooking appliance. ■ REPLACE all smoke alarms when they are 10 years old.

Our goals and objectives are to: • Provide relief from poverty • Assist members of the community that have been affected by traumatic wounds, injuries, or episodes. • Raise money for medical and health care research • Provide bursaries for community service • Sponsor programs that promote staying in school • Deliver programs that offer positive life experiences and enhance self-esteem. What separates us from other charities? • We are 100% volunteer based; • Every dollar raised goes back to the community; • We have a dedicated team of fire fighters who deliver our programs; • We support over 40 community based programs in Surrey; • We see the need in our community through our job every single day; • We aim to be the number one community charity in Surrey; • We care about Surrey’s youth, seniors, families and disadvantaged people.
