Tears for fallen RCMP officer

Thousands attend service for Surrey constable killed in crash Black Press THOUSANDS OF RCMP officers and police from other forces as far away as

Australia marched in the rain Tuesday to honour fallen Surrey RCMP Const. Adrian Oliver. The 28-year-old Oliver received a full regimental funeral at the Langley Events Centre, a memorial second only in significance to a state funeral. When the marchers arrived at the centre, eight officers removed their regulation Stetsons and carried his casket on their shoulders into the arena with slow, careful steps. Also in attendance were customs officers and border guards, sheriffs, municipal police officers, firefighters, paramedics, coast guard members, fisheries officers, and numerous provincial, federal and international dignitaries. Oliver, a three-year member of the Surrey Bob Paulson detachment, died when his police cruiser collided with a semi-trailer truck at 64 Avenue and 148 Street in the early morning hours of Nov. 13. Const. Ben Oliver, Adrian’s twin brother and a fellow RCMP officer, spoke at the service. “I have lost my best friend in the entire world,” he told the audience in the 5,500-seat arena.

“He was unselfish to his friends, his family, and to the citizens he served.”

No stops in Surrey for Port Mann express bus Plan change ‘an act of fraud,’ transit advocate charges

by Jeff Nagel USERS OF the new Highway 1 express bus service over the Port Mann Bridge won’t be able to board or exit in Surrey as had previously been promised. The express buses start to roll on Dec. 1 when the bridge officially opens and the announcement for the

new #555 route was made by Transportation Minister Mary Polak amid fanfare last Friday in Langley. But transit advocates in Surrey are angry their promised stop near the new dedicated bus/HOV ramps at 156 Street has been quietly dropped from the plan.

See INFRASTRUCTURE / Page 8

EVAN SEAL / THE LEADER

Transit advocate Daryl Dela Cruz says Surrey has been betrayed by a decision not to send express buses from Langley down the new 156 Street HOV ramps to pick up passengers in Guildford.

Surrey exceeds its waste goals

Travis Allport, 3, holds a red maple leaf while watching uniformed officers march in a parade that was part of the regimental funeral held in Langley for fallen Surrey RCMP Const. Adrian Oliver. Allport’s grandfather was the partner of another Surrey Mountie – Const. Roger Pierlet – who died in the line of duty in 1974.

Surrey is now sending 35 per cent less trash to landfills with new waste program by Kevin Diakiw SuRRey iS already taking a big

bite out of the waste headed for landfills. A new organics diversion program launched in September has already significantly reduced the amount of trash headed for Cache Creek, while increasing the amount of organics being composted. Metro Vancouver has set a goal of a 70-per-cent waste diversion from landfills by 2015. Since Surrey’s September conversion to a new waste pick-up, where organics and food scraps are picked up separately, the city has increased its diversion from 50 per cent to 66 per cent. That’s all coming from the separate collection of food scraps that would have gone into the regular garbage stream headed for the Cache Creek landfill. Those table scraps amounted to 26 kgs (57 lbs) per household for the month of October, or .83 kgs (1.9 lbs) a day of table scraps headed for composting instead of a landfill. Rob Costanzo, Surrey’s deputy operations manager in the engineering department, said he didn’t expect to get to this level of diversion for at least a year. “I’m thrilled with the results after just one month,” said Costanzo, adding it’s now “inevitable” that the city will reach 75-per-cent diversion, exceeding the Metro Vancouver 2015 target. “The great news is now that we’ll get there sooner than later.”

Berner back in jail – then released Drunk driver’s fate ‘inconsequential,’ victim’s mom says by Tracy Holmes

Alexa Middelaer

TwO yeARS after launching an appeal of her impaired and dangerous-driving convictions, Carol Ann Berner was put in jail to begin serving her sentence for causing the death of toddler Alexa Middelaer. But her incarceration this week was short. Hours after B.C. Court of Appeal Justice Kathryn Neilson announced the decision to dismiss Berner’s appeal, the

60-year-old – who had been free on bail pending the decision – was granted release pending her appeal of her sentence. The date of that hearing is expected to be determined later this week, Crown John Gordon said. He noted that appeal court Justice Catherine Ryan has indicated she wants it heard before the end of March. The dismissal of Berner’s convictions appeal was heard in Vancouver chambers Tuesday. Gordon said outside court that

he was not surprised the appeal was dismissed. “This is good,” Gordon said. “All of the convictions were upheld.” In July 2010, Berner, 60, was found guilty of two counts of dangerous driving causing death and bodily harm and two counts of impaired driving causing death and bodily harm, after losing control of her car on a Delta street in May 2008, striking and killing Alexa.

Funeral: More than 10,000 people view service From page 1 “He was kinder, funnier, more considerate and more generous than me, and I strived every day to become a fraction of the man Adrian was,” Ben Oliver said. When they were growing up together, the two brothers both planned to become Mounties and live across the street from each other. Six months ago, Ben Oliver moved into a house next door to his brother and his brother’s fiancée, Shelagh Mitchell, who is also an RCMP officer. Mitchell also spoke, describing how the two rookie officers fell in love when they met during basic training at RCMP Depot in Regina, Sask. She called him the love of her life. “Adrian, your kindness inspires me to be a better person, your goofiness reminds me to stay a kid at heart and your dedication motivates me to try my best at anything I do,” she said. “The love we share is enough to fill me for a lifetime.” Chief Supt. Andrew Boland, a close friend of the family, told the crowd he has often said there are people the RCMP needs and there are people who need the RCMP. “In Adrian’s case, the RCMP needed him,” Boland said.

The fullest day to the last

’m sure you’ve heard the phrase many times: “Live each day as though it’s your last.” Many famous folks have said something along those lines, whether it was Eckhart Tolle, Ghandi or Steve Jobs. Well, I’ve been inspired to give it a try. Let’s see how it goes. 3 a.m. Wake wife with amorous intentions. Pushes me away. “You crazy? It’s the middle of the night.” I say it’s time to seize the day, but she’s dozed off. Undaunted, go downstairs and crank stereo with favourite all-time songs. Day must have cool soundtrack. I’m belting words to Van Halen’s “Jump,” imaginary mic in hand, dancing in the buff, channelling Tom Cruise from Risky Business. Feels awesome! Song ends, open eyes to see wife and boys standing in doorway. I give them huge hug. So precious. Love them so much. “What’s wrong with Daddy, Mommy?” six-year-old asks. 3:30 a.m. Go for jog. Muscles in motion, brisk air, sleeping city. Glorious! Pouring rain like pleasant shower. Stop at 7-Eleven, take maximum from bank, give woman twenty to let me put mouth under Slurpee nozzle while she fills it. Huge headache, but super fun. 4:30 a.m. Home. Eat pound of Chris bacon, three eggs, three cups coffee. Mmmm. Call guy who wronged me in high school, tell him to F-off. “Who’s this?” says a groggy voice. Hang up. Catharsis. Resolve to keep positive now on. 5:30 a.m. Call work. Leave message: I quit. Forgo shower, toothbrush, handwashing etc. Wasted time. Dishes in sink. Bills in trash. 6 a.m. Family finally wakes. Promise to buy breakfast, drag on SkyTrain to downtown. Sing full voice on ride, seek riders for impromptu performance of PSY’s Gangnam Style. Elderly Greek woman surprisingly limber. Wife and sons sit across aisle, avoid eye contact. 7 a.m. Breakfast at 5 Sails at Canada Place. Order champagne. Slip waiter $20 – make it

Surrey/North Delta Leader 7

Festival of Governments helping make people poor argument re: Letter wrIter Jennifer Dorey’s,

“Diwali: Festival of ‘war’, ” (The Leader, Nov. 15). This is obviously not the first year that Diwali has been celebrated in this city. We also have big celebrations such as the Fusion Festival, Vaisakhi parade, etc. I wonder if she was bothered by all that hoopla. Her opinion of Diwali borders on distastefulness and some poor knowledge about the vast colourful cross-section the population. We all celebrate Christmas, Remembrance Day, etc. with equal enthusiasm, and do not call the police just because my neighbour is having a noisy Christmas party.

a few days ago, I read about the City of Surrey charging more money for a lady who let her blind father-in-law live in her downstairs suite, even though she claimed zero income from rent. I was very surprised. The city should not take any money from her, even if she received some extra income from the rent. We ordinary people sacrifice part of our living space, our quality of life to make a little bit more money to help our daily life. Why is the government envious? The city just started a new garbage pick-up program and we have to spend more than $20 per

month in buying these paper food waste bags. The new Port Mann Bridge is going to charge soon. Do we have a choice? No, unless we move out of Surrey. City of Surrey, please stop milking our ordinary people dry. Elizabeth Zhang

Seniors’ savings at risk when Is it going to end, the continuing price increasing here in B.C.? I am a senior citizen and it is increasingly

more difficult to make ends meet. The families of this province are finding it an ongoing problem to feed and house their families. The rents are sky high and the politicians sit back with their fat incomes and pensions and take away from the public and spend our hard-earned money and then give themselves raises. They seem to forget it is the taxpayers’ money. Let us see politicians takes wage losses and pension cuts to help the economy.

Firecrackers the problem I wouLd LIke to just add my two

cents about the Diwali fireworks versus Halloween fireworks discussion. In Newton where I live, it was really the firecrackers (not the nicer, more gentle fireworks) we heard on both occasions, but most certainly there were more during Diwali. In fact, one of my sons even said just that to me. My dog does not like firecrackers and reacts to them much as he does to thunder – he paces the house looking for a place that he can feel safe. It was very upsetting for him, but certainly more on Diwali, as there were so many more and they went on so much longer. Firecrackers are the issue, not fireworks. Carol MacDonald

Enjoy the celebration re: Letter writer Jennifer Dorey’s

comment, “Diwali: Festival of ‘war’, ” The Leader, Nov. 15. Diwali is the festival of lights and a day of victory of good over evil. Since Dorey has associated fireworks with “war,” I guess Halloween is a festival of war too, together with Canada Day and New Year’s Eve. Diwali is celebrated throughout the world and enjoyed by every ethnic group. As for her thoughts on illegal suites, they are called “affordable accommodation” for majority of the low-income earning population. Surendra Singh

As a planning student, sustainability in Canadian cities is a very important part of my studies. To my delight, the City of Surrey has been brought up in many of my researches as a leader in urban environmental sustainability. In particular, we have North America’s largest living wall located on the Semiahmoo Public Library, a place I would frequent while attending the nearby Semiahmoo Secondary School. I have never been prouder of my home town. I would just like to share this uplifting information and say that: City of Surrey, the future lives here.

Armed Forces Gambling on mental health casualties warrant same level of respect re: the proposed South Surrey casino.

The fact is, casinos are exploiting the oftendebilitating weaknesses of many of its consumers – especially those suffering with OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder) – almost to the point of appalling callousness. There is post-secondary psychology literature that states that gamblers purposely,

I admIre and respect the RCMP and think

it a great shame if a member is killed in the line of duty. I refer to the large parade and funeral held in Langley during which thousands of uniformed mourners attended the funeral of one of their own. If it had been a Canadian soldier killed in the line of duty, would the same courtesy and respect be warranted? Would members of his regiment parade in dress uniform behind a military band? I suspect that it boils down to the fact that it is a rarity for a member of the RCMP to be killed on duty (the exception was the tragic loss of four members ambushed in Alberta a few years back) and that casualties are far more frequent in the Canadian Forces. What’s more, I’m pleased to see the RCMP get some favourable publicity for a change.

Garbage and logic gone

I have read with interest the

letters to the editor over the past few weeks with respect to the city’s recent waste cart program change. Unfortunately, I too will have to add my name to the list of frustrated citizens. Recently, recycling truck drivers have been collecting our “old” recycling blue boxes as they have been instructed to do. Two of ours were taken away despite being full of recyclables and still needed until we can get an extra recycling cart. Requests for replacements have led to no reply or action.

The city’s website states that excess recyclables that do not fit into the newly issued recycling carts can be placed in the old recycling boxes for overflow. However, additional recycling carts will not be available for purchase or delivery until the New Year. Where are citizens to place their excess recycling if their blue boxes have now been taken back? Through no fault of their own, the front-line workers are bearing the brunt of citizen frustrations. Christmas and the holi-

days are coming soon and traditionally produce the most waste (recycling). Common sense might dictate that the old blue boxes should have been collected once everyone has received their extra or revised recycling carts and the holidays have passed. The new waste program is a great concept and makes sense for the environment, but he implementation has been completely mismanaged at the top by decisionmakers.

in the area that never advanced. Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts said she was never informed the stop at 156 Street had been cancelled. “That was not the original commitment that was made,” Watts said, adding she campaigned with Langley mayors to save the express bus service on the expectation it would also stop in Surrey. “There’s no point in bypassing a city of a half-a-million people,” Watts said. “The

residents of Surrey have continued to pay through taxes for all of the infrastructure everywhere else. It’s just not fair when that infrastructure is not completed in Surrey.” Langley City Mayor Peter Fassbender, vicechair of the TransLink mayors’ council, said he knew for some time the service would initially bypass Surrey, adding he will press TransLink to “eventually” add stops there when it gains more funding. “It’s not never,” he

said. “It’s a question of timing and volume and the need for feeder routes that go into it.” Dela Cruz said it was the province’s responsibility, under the $3.3-billion Port Mann/Highway 1 project, to build the promised transit infrastructure, even though it is TransLink that operates the service. He said he’ll urge community groups and others to press TransLink to add at least a temporary stop to serve North Sur-

“That was not the original commitment... There’s no point in bypassing a city of halfa-million people.” Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts rey even if there’s no proper loop or parkand-ride yet. The 156 Street stop would serve the busy Guildford retail area and the growing population both there and across the highway in Fraser Heights. Zabel said a basic stop at the HOV ramps is impossible because the gap in the freeway is too narrow. An off-interchange bus loop would be needed, he said, but TransLink can’t afford to build it right now. He said the #509 and #590 routes from Walnut Grove to Surrey Central will use the 156 Street ramps – they currently exit the highway at 160 Street to take 104 Avenue – and they may be upgraded at some point into a #555-style route. The Highway 1 express buses will be more comfortable highway coaches with high fabric backs, reading lights and luggage racks. Polak was not available for questions and

ministry staff have not yet explained when the decision was made to shelve the 156 Street loop or how much was saved as a result. It’s not the first disappointment for riders awaiting the new service. TransLink indicated in September it would downgrade the ExpressBus plan by running it at reduced off-peak frequencies of 30 minutes between buses – instead of every 10 to 15 – due to budget constraints. It also revealed the route will initially only go as far west as Braid Station in New Westminster, not Lougheed Station as previously planned. There was no indication then the buses would not stop in Surrey. Passengers boarding in Langley at the newly built 670-stall Carvolth park-andride are promised a 20-minute trip to Braid Station over the new Port Mann Bridge.

Middelaers: Relief at ruling From page 3 The four-year-old, who attended preschool in Crescent Beach, had been feeding a horse at the side of the road with her aunt, Daphne Johanson, who was seriously injured in the collision. Berner was sentenced to two-and-a-half years in prison and a five-year driving ban. Her appeal was heard on Nov. 10, 2011. At that time, Berner’s lawyer David Tarnow asked Neilson and Justices Catherine Ryan and Elizabeth Bennett to acquit his client or call for a new trial, arguing that the trial judge had erred on several points of law in convicting Berner. Johanson – who still has mobility issues as a result of the injuries she suffered – was in attendance as Neilson released the 41-page judgment that explains the dismissal. Alexa’s mother, Laurel Middelaer, was delayed by heavy traffic, arriving shortly after the few seconds it took to announce the decision. Alexa’s father, Michael, was unable to attend. Learning that the convictions had been upheld, Alexa’s mother – who is head of Southridge Junior School – expressed relief. “We really didn’t know. We had a lot of angst leading up to this moment,” she told media outside court, referring to the length of time it took to receive a decision. “It’s a good day for our family.” Asked her feelings on Berner’s pending sentencing appeal, Middelaer said the penalty is not the family’s focus. “It’s not about Ms. Berner. We’ve elevated beyond that,” she said. “What happens to Ms. Berner is inconsequential to us.” More important is the message that the courts are sending in such cases, she said. “There are some real encouraging signs,” she said, citing a reduction in the number of fatalities on the road. Jason Tarnow – who, with his father, David, represented Berner through her trial and appeal –said that while he had been surprised at the trial’s outcome, he “wasn’t holding (his) breath” that the appeal would be successful. “I was hopeful,” he said. Tarnow noted the appeal judges did agree with certain aspects that

LEADER FILE PHOTO

Carol Berner lost control of her car on a Delta street in 2008. defence had put forward, including that Berner had effectively been detained when she was questioned by a police officer in the back of a patrol car at the crash scene. “The detention was not one of short duration,” Ryan writes. “Thus Ms. Berner ought to have been advised of her right to counsel… before her tape-recorded statement was taken.” Regardless, the court agreed the statement she gave, regarding consuming two glasses of wine more than three hours prior, was admissible. “So it really got us nowhere,” Tarnow said. “They still said… the statement should still go in as evidence.” Tarnow also pointed to the fact that the judges described destruction of Berner’s vehicle before she was charged as “disturbing.”

At the same time, Ryan notes she agrees with the trial judge’s finding that Berner’s defence was not prejudiced by the move. “At least the Court of Appeal gave it some acknowledgment,” Tarnow said. The Crown had submitted that Berner had been agreeable to being put in the police car; that the issue of the destroyed car had minimal impact at trial; and, that there was no question that Berner was guilty of dangerous driving. “She didn’t even attempt to slow the vehicle down until it was far, far, far too late,” Gordon said at the 2011 hearing. In the judgment, Ryan describes Berner’s driving on the date of the crash as “significantly different from her usual conduct,” and that evidence presented at trial “proves beyond

a reasonable doubt that Ms. Berner’s ability to drive was impaired by alcohol.” “In my view, the verdicts were ones a judge could reasonably render.” Jason Tarnow, Gordon and Middelaer all commented on the length of time – more than a year – from the appeal hearing to Tuesday’s decision. Gordon said while it is not unprecedented, it is “very unusual.” Tarnow said he was surprised and noted the wait was hard on all sides. “I sympathize with the Middelaer family for having to deal with this for over a year,” he said. “It was stressful on… everybody. “Obviously, the court wanted to make sure they got it right; it was a very carefully written decision.” Middelaer said the delay needs to be explained. “That is a question I think we, as taxpayers, need an answer to.” An application to have Berner re-released on bail, pending the hearing of her sentencing appeal, was to be heard Tuesday afternoon. She had been out on bail since shortly after her conviction in November 2010, but was required to surrender herself Tuesday morning.

Surrey closure floods other ERs with patients

MARCH 2013

Shutdown may last two weeks; ORs at SMH now open

by Jeff Nagel The indefiniTe shutdown

of B.C.’s busiest emergency department at Surrey Memorial Hospital (SMH) after a flood there Monday is putting more pressure on already congested hospitals around the rest of the region. A “couple hundred” emergency patients are likely being handled by other hospitals that would normally be at SMH, said Fraser Health spokesman Roy Thorpe-Dorward. “We’ve had reports from [Royal Columbian Hospital] and Peace Arch in particular that have seen more patients than usual,” he said. The ER at Surrey Memorial is now not expected to reopen until at least next week, Thorpe-Dorward said, and it may take two weeks to restore full service. The first floor was flooded after an excavator broke a water main during construction for the hospital’s expansion. Surrey Memorial’s ability to perform surgeries has been restored, however, with all nine

operating rooms at SMH now back in service. More than 100 elective or non-urgent surgeries had been cancelled after the flood. The ORs were initially closed due to concerns about water and power reliability and because diagnostic imaging and other equipment lost or damaged in the flood was not yet back on line. It is not known how long it will take reschedule the cancelled surgeries. Meanwhile, patients who arrive at SMH and need urgent help are being treated at a 24-hour urgent care area opened at the Jim Pattison Outpatient Care and Surgery Centre near SMH and a regional Mobile Medical Unit on stand-by for disasters is now set up there as well to act as a temporary ER. Less-serious cases will be assessed and treated there, while more seriously ill patients will be transferred elsewhere in the region. Ambulance paramedics are automatically taking patients who would normally go to SMH to other hospitals,

depending on where officials determine the most space exists. All flood water has been removed but work is now focused on drying out the ER and then assessing the restoration work needed and possible damage to sophisticated medical equipment. “Cleaning will obviously be important as we have to create a sterile emergency environment,” Thorpe-Dorward said. Crews have built a temporary wall at the back of the ER, replacing the one that collapsed Monday when water released by the water main break burst through. Thorpe-Dorward said the health authority is proud of how ER staff at Surrey performed in the initial moments of the flood when water suddenly gushed through the back wall. “We learned our staff don’t panic under pressure,” he said. He noted the incident allowed Fraser Health to activate and refine its disaster plans, which set out responses to crises “up to and including the loss of an entire hospital.

Surrey Urban Mission soon to be homeless by Kevin Diakiw A group helping the

homeless and needy in Whalley for the past decade will soon be homeless itself. The Surrey Urban Mission Society (SUMS) has to be out of its church space at 13388 104 Ave. by Jan. 25, 2013. It was an agreement made last year that SUMS would receive a cash settlement and would have to find a new home in 90 days. The church needs the space for some of its own programs. After Jan. 25, services SUMS provides to the community will stop, including an extreme weather shelter, which will close during one of the year’s coldest months. When SUMS Executive Director Joquil Hallgate talks about her society, she speaks of family. SUMS, named the Surrey Board of Trade’s top not-for-profit this month, not only offers food and shelter, but all things that will make people feel better about themselves and their community – just the same kind of thing someone would offer a family member that was in need, Hallgate says. “It’s about the quality of life,” she says. “If people come in and they’re totally isolated, we can help them build a community of people around them that become their network and their friends and their family.” Some people, newly separated from their spouse, come in for companionship more than for a need for food. She shudders at the notion the community will lose that wraparound service. As recently as September, the city had a plan to temporarily house SUMS at a nearby property. However, that plan failed, leaving the mission in the same place it was before, but with a tighter deadline. Surrey Coun. Barinder Rasode said she

Group helping the needy has until Jan. 25 to move out of its Whalley location “I’m part of the church community. Faith is foremost. It might not happen in my time, but I have to have faith” Joquil Hallgate still wants the city to help find an answer for SUMS, but one isn’t immediately apparent. Meanwhile, Hallgate is holding on to what she knows best – faith. “I’m part of the church community,” Hallgate says. “Faith is foremost. It might not happen in my time, but I have to have faith.” Hallgate’s daughter has started a petition, asking the church for more time before it closes its doors to SUMS. The petition can be found at http://chn.ge/ TOPsg9 SUMS offers much more than a meal. The mission also provides: • Day camps; • Weekly women’s group; • Weekly youth group; • Drug addiction counselling and support; • Help for single women and single men; • Housing assistance; • Medical care by working with the local hospitals to get aid to those in need; • A Christmas dinner for the entire city of Surrey that serves 1,500 meals every Dec. 25; • Recovery and rehab assistance; • An instrumental role in organizing the B.C. Homeless Count two years ago; • Annual “Connect Day” in which Surrey agencies can offer their services in one central location, and people receive free haircuts, dental care, medical care and as other “luxuries” they would

not normally be able to access or afford; • Invitation to the riders of “Bike and Ride” to come and spend their last night on the road with them at the end of every summer;

• The Extreme Wet Weather Zero Barrier Shelter every winter from November to March; Several American universities, church and school groups have

traveled far and wide to come and visit the Mission and be a part of the community. Several Canadian groups have also joined the Mission for weeklong stays of service.

No jail time for assault

Alberto Flores beat a woman and threatened a man on the same day by Kevin Diakiw A mAn who beat a

woman in her apartment and threatened a Good Samaritan has been given eight months community service for his crimes. Judge Jean Lytwyn said it’s tantamount to a jail sentence, because if he fails to comply with his orders, that’s where he’ll be going. Alvaro Flores pleaded guilty to beating a woman and threatening a man on Dec. 12, 2010. Crown Counsel Pam Bhatti read out a statement of facts to Lytwyn in Surrey Provincial Court on Tuesday. On the evening of Dec. 11, the victim played pool and had drinks with Flores and a woman he was with at a local bar. The victim felt they shared some Christian values, so they exchanged phone numbers, and the victim went home. Soon after, Flores and his companion showed up, and the victim let them into her suite at Bon Terra Apartments. Flores’ companion fell asleep, and Flores made sexual advances toward the victim. She rebuffed him, and Flores beat her, Bhatti told the judge. Then the victim noticed that her couch was on fire. “According to the girl he was with, it was Alvaro Flores that set the couch on fire,” Bhatti told the judge. Lytwyn quickly cut Bhatti off saying the court wasn’t going to entertain those assertions. Flores wasn’t being charged with arson. Neil MacKenzie, a spokesman with the Criminal Justice Branch, previously told The Leader in August there wasn’t enough evidence to pursue the police-recommended charges of arson against Flores. “The Crown reviewed the available evidence and concluded that there was insufficient evidence to reliably identify Mr. Flores as the person who was responsible for the fire,” MacKenzie said. Flores and the girl he was with left the apartment and drove away in a car. A short distance further, they crashed the car, Bhatti said.

The woman fled the vehicle as a Good Samaritan arrived to help Flores. Flores became verbally combative with the man who came to help, threatening him if he told anyone there was a woman in the car. “I know gang mem-

bers you don’t want to mess with who own police,” Bhatti read from the witness account. He continued that he knows his face, and if he sees him, he will gun him down, Bhatti said, adding the Samaritan was quite shaken up by the threats.

In a joint submission, Crown counsel and defence for Flores asked for six months community service for the assault and another two months community service for the threats. On Wednesday, Lytwyn said the matter of the fire was not

before her, but she was taking it into account. At the very least, she said, he left the apartment knowing the couch was on fire. She sentenced him to eight months community service, and put him on several conditions.

Drivers who wanted to take one last commute over

the old Port Mann Bridge have missed their chance. All traffic is now using the new span after the westbound lanes were redirected onto the new crossing last weekend. Eastbound traffic has been using the new bridge since late September. “As of Friday night or early Saturday morning, the last vehicles would have crossed the old Port Mann Bridge,” said Transportation Investment Corp. spokesman Greg Johnson. “It was a smooth traffic flip.” The new bridge officially opens Dec. 1 with eight lanes and drivers will have one week to try it for free before tolls kick in Dec. 8. Just five lanes are now open. “We’re just putting on the finishing touches,” Johnson said, adding the electronic tolling system is being tested and no problems have been detected so far. Another year of construction work will continue on the western portions of the Highway 1 corridor through Burnaby and Vancouver, as well as the eventual dismantling of the old Port Mann Bridge in 2014. The full 10 lanes won’t be open until late 2013 when the last two lanes are opened. When complete, there will be two lanes in both directions that will act as local traffic-only lanes directly connecting Surrey and Coquitlam. Those drivers – who account for a large portion of Port Mann traffic – will no longer have to merge with other highway traffic to cross. But drivers who enter at 152 Street and exit at Cape Horn to take those separated lanes won’t get the 25 per cent discount offered to registered HOV lane users who cross at peak times. To get the discount, Greg Johnson westbound drivers would have to detour east in Surrey and take the 156 Street on-ramp dedicated for HOVs to cross the bridge in the HOV lane. Eastbound drivers from Cape Horn will have their choice of local traffic, HOV or general lanes and would exit at 156 Street if they take the HOV option. Drivers must tick the box identifying themselves as HOV users when they register through the TReO tolling system or they don’t get the discount, which only applies on travel in HOV lanes with at least two occupants and only on weekdays between 6:30 and 8:30 a.m. and 4 to 6 p.m. Johnson said most drivers are ticking the HOV box so they get the discount when it applies, even if they normally drive alone and would rarely qualify. Tolls were to start at $3 but the province announced in September a half-price discount that will run until at least March – drivers who register with the TReO tolling system by then will get the 50 per cent discount for a full year. As of Monday, more than 250,000 people had registered for TReO, close to the province’s target of at least 300,000 by the end of February. Another deadline is coming up fast. Drivers who sign on to TReO by Nov. 30 get a credit for 20 free crossings.

“As of (last) Friday or Saturday morning, the last vehicles would have crossed the old Port Mann.”

Janet Holder, Enbridge Inc.

vice-president responsible for the Northern Gateway pipeline project, was in Victoria Tuesday to give a speech to the Canadian Club. Before the speech, she spoke with Black Press legislative reporter Tom Fletcher. Here is an edited transcript:

Tom Fletcher (TF): The International Energy Agency just released a report that says the United States expects to be self-sufficient in oil in five years because of increased shale oil production. What does that mean for oil sands and the Northern Gateway proposal? Janet Holder (JH): It has been a few years that the U.S. has talked about being self-sufficient or self-contained in oil, and people have questioned whether that includes Canadian oil or not. If that is a reality, then that increases the need to for Canada to get to tidewater with its oil. Our number one export in Canada is oil, and 99 per cent of it is going to the U.S. right now. TF: NDP leader Thomas Mulcair was just in town. He says pipe the oil to the east and refine it in Canada, absolutely no way to Northern Gateway. Your response? JH: I think there is value to moving oil to the East Coast and there are a number of possibilities there. The value of the Northern Gateway project is that it’s the most economical access to the Pacific Rim. TF: What about refining oil in B.C.? JH: As a pipeline company we can move any oil product, refined or not refined. So we’re indifferent. If it does make economic sense to refine oil in British Columbia, then we’re quite comfortable with that. TF: A lot of the opposition relates to crude oil tankers. Is that the biggest obstacle, or is it the overland route? JH: We don’t believe tankers are the toughest challenge. It may

Janet Holder says the pipeline project is in the economic interest of Canadians and can be made environmentally safe.

“If we were to get a positive recommendation from the Joint Review Panel at the end of next year, we would still have hundreds of millions of dollars to spend from today until we put a shovel in the ground.” Janet Holder be perceived by a lot of individuals that that is the issue, but we are creating a world-class marine system off the North Coast of B.C. that will set the standard for ports around the world. We look at all environmental aspects equally, and we want to build a pipeline, a terminal and a marine system that is world class. TF: B.C. Environment Minister Terry Lake has described Enbridge’s testimony at federal

hearings in Prince George as “long on promises and short on solid evidence.” Your response? JH: I was quite surprised with his comments. We could not have been more forthright in our answers that day, or provided any more detail. There is a process here. We don’t have all the answers today, and we don’t pretend to. If we were to get a positive recommendation from the Joint Review Panel at the end of next year, we would still have hundreds of millions of dollars to spend from today until we put a shovel in the ground. We are continually evolving the project, and that’s how it works. You take enough information to the JRP to prove it’s in the economic interest of Canadians and to prove that you can build this pipeline in an environmentally sustainable, safe way. That being given, you refine that down more. We’re looking at a corridor that’s a kilometre wide right now, which is normal for the JRP process. If you get approval, you narrow it down to a 25-metre corridor, do more engineering studies, more studies in the field, until we can say here See ANIMALS / Page 20

Return to PST worries businesses Old sales tax next April 1 will increase paperwork, says legislative finance committee

by Tom Fletcher RetuRning to the old provincial sales tax next April 1 will increase paperwork for B.C. businesses and cost them harmonized sales tax credits on equipment and other inputs, the legislature finance committee reminded the B.C. government last week. After its annual tour of the province to get input on the 2013 budget, the committee urges Finance Minister Mike de Jong to consider its expert panel recommendations to ease the impact on business of scrapping the HST.

Some industry associations want the government to provide a tax credit that would compensate them for the PST they will have to pay on purchases of machinery and equipment. Those taxes were lifted under the HST, which recovered revenue by extending seven-per-cent sales taxes to a range of consumer services that won’t be taxed starting next spring. The finance committee was also asked to consult the public on a “made-in-B.C. value-added tax” that would accomplish some of the goals of the HST under

another name. That would be a volatile discussion to begin with a provincial election set for May 14, 2013. The administrative burden of the switch starts with businesses reprogramming cash registers and other systems to go back to two separate sales taxes. The switch to the HST in 2010 revealed some national retailers were not accurately applying the B.C. sales tax, which has decades of accumulated exemptions and rules that don’t apply in other provinces. The finance ministry has been

working on a system to allow businesses to register online for the return of the PST, and to train owners of thousands of businesses that have started up since the HST conversion in 2010. The ministry has set up a website for businesses to manage the transition at www.pstinbc.ca The finance committee has also endorsed a widespread business call to balance the provincial budget starting next spring. The effects of the worldwide financial crisis of 2008 pushed B.C.’s books into the red, and deficits continued this year as

B.C. had to repay a $1.6 billion HST transition fund provided by Ottawa. The B.C. Chamber of Commerce and other groups also called on the finance committee to ease the burden of B.C.’s carbon tax. Grain growers, greenhouse operators and cement manufacturers have called for relief from carbon tax on fuels, arguing that it puts them at a competitive disadvantage with Alberta, Washington and other jurisdictions.

Animals: Pipeline route in land already disturbed From page 19 is exactly where we’re going to go and how we’re going to build it. TF: There has been discussion about the impact on caribou migration, one of many wildlife issues. Can you talk about that? JH: We look at all species at risk, and caribou is one species where we have made a lot of effort, and hired experts to work with us. The majority of the pipeline is actually going along already disturbed land. A lot of it is due to logging and pine beetle kill. What we will do where there are caribou migration areas is actually improve the land from where it is today, and make it more conducive to caribou. TF: The issue wildlife biologists talk about is that all resource development opens up and changes the whole ecology of the area, increasing access for moose and predators like wolves. JH: You don’t want to open up land, because the caribou are easier targets as prey. More than 70 per cent of the pipeline route is actually along roadways used for taking down beetle-killed timber or other logging. Those clear rights-ofway already exist. We will berm, we will put trees in, we will actually create a friendlier environment for the caribou than what those roads and clearcuts have done. TF: Can you give me an update on discussions with aboriginal communities? JH: We had a 10 per cent equity offering out that ended just before Christmas, and we had 60 per cent of the First Nations, split evenly between British Columbia and Alberta, who have signed on to those equity agreements. We have not released any further equity, but have ongoing discussions with a number of First Nations with regard to potential procurement opportunities once we’re in construction mode. There is about $800 million worth of goods and services along the pipeline construction in British Columbia alone, and we feel probably $300 million of that or more can be provided through First Nations communities. We’re having ongoing discussions with regards to education and skills training. We have already offered training to First Nations, and of course they will be trained well before we get approval and will be off doing something else. But we hope they will come back and work for us.

The importance of proper estate planning The importance of proper estate planning cannot be overstated. Estate planning is the act of planning out your financial, legal, and other affairs in ways to ensure that your wishes are followed when you pass away or when you become incapable of making these important decisions on your own. Depending on your needs, your estate planning may be limited to a Will, or it may include a variety of other documents, including: Trusts, Powers of Attorney, and Representation Agreements. Estate planning may appear to be simple because clients know what they want; however, there are often complex issues that can only be spotted by an experienced estate planning lawyer. These issues have to be considered in order to put your plan in place. How you want to structure your affairs will depend on, and often be made more complex by many factors, such as: • your health status and mental capability (e.g. mental health issues, diminished capacity, disabilities, vulnerabilities); • the type of assets you have (e.g. land, bank accounts, business assets, personal assets); • the people you want to benefit or exclude (e.g. family, friends, charities); • the individuals you want to care for (e.g. children, elderly, mentally disabled persons); the family dynamics in place (e.g. common-law or legal marriage, blended family, second marriage, children, step-children); • the potential challenges made by other individuals to change your estate plan after death (e.g. challenges by spouses or adult children); • the applicable law that may affect your estate plan (e.g. company law, tax law, family law and Wills Variation legislation); and • the long-term goals you want to achieveThe above is by no means an exhaustive list, but is meant to provide a sampling of issues that estate planning lawyers must consider in preparing your estate plan. In forming a plan, both positive and negative contingencies need to be considered. Estate planning lawyers can anticipate many of the future issues which can arise and advise on an estate plan that deals with these contingencies in a way that is satisfactory to you. It is always important to review your plans at least every few years to confirm that they

still adequately reflect your wishes given your present circumstances. Without having spoken with an estate planning lawyer, you will not know what issues could render your estate plan vulnerable or invalid. Without proper estate planning, estate litigation could be the unfortunate result. Estate litigation typically arises after the estate planner has passed away or has become incapable, leaving the litigation on the shoulders of family members and those left behind. Not only can these disputes take years to resolve, but they are often financially and emotionally draining and may have significant negative impacts on the families involved. Be cautious of estate planning tools that appear to be “one-size-fits-all.” Proper estate planning is more than filling in the blanks about who gets what. The estate planning lawyers at McQuarrie Hunter LLP will work with you to develop a plan that reflects your instructions and circumstances, and does its best to protect your estate plan from challenges in the future. Most important, proper estate planning gives you the peace of mind knowing that your affairs are well-organized and “in order”. If you need assistance in creating an estate plan or would like more information, please contact, Kim Floeck or Allison Catherwood of McQuarrie Hunter LLP at 604-581-7001.

A legacy of giving In 1997, Kate decided to make a bequest for undergraduate awards in Medicine: “I couldn’t give a gift in real time, so I thought an estate gift was a good solution,” she explains. “It takes an organization like UBC to find a cure for major diseases like cancer, which is prevalent in our family. If I could contribute towards a cure, even in some small way—well, that would be awesome.” Kate’s generosity inspired her husband and daughter, who are also members of the UBC community, to follow suit. Robert is an alumnus who has worked in

GWYNETH GUNN 1921-2003 Currently reporting on development pressures in Brazil As Development Liaison Officer for UBC’s Development and Alumni Engagement, Kate Bush knows firsthand how estate gifts to the University help shape the experience of students through financial aid, academic opportunities, and extracurricular initiatives. “Supporting students and research is such a thrill. I can’t work in a place if I’m not passionate about the cause.” Plant Operations at UBC for almost 34 years while Laura works in Campus and Community Planning and is pursuing her degree at UBC part time. As a graduate of Physical Education, Robert plans to leave his bequest to the Athletics Department while Laura’s gift is currently undesignated, so it can be put towards the area of greatest need. “Students come to UBC to figure out who they are,” explains Laura. “You never know—you could be sitting next to someone who cures a major disease, produces a great composition or becomes the next Olympic champion. Students have so much potential, so why not support them?” Kate, Robert and Laura all agree that financial need shouldn’t bar any student from university. “If my gift helps someone gain access to higher education, that would be great,” says Laura. “People who undertake university on their own, without the help of parents or scholarship money, have a really hard time,” says Kate. “I like the idea of making someone’s life a little easier.” “Besides,” adds Robert, “you never know. The money you put towards UBC could benefit you in ways you never thought possible.”

Thank you Gwyneth Gunn, for making what I do possible. Journalism can be an expensive subject to study and the types of stories that I like to cover often mean support gives me the chance to take risks, to get out into the world and do a story that people maybe haven’t heard about. It’s so inspiring to know that there are people out there who really value the pursuit of knowledge. I hope that some day I am in a position to pass that on and encourage other young people to continue in this profession. – Lisa Hale, Master of Journalism student

Gwyneth Gunn expressed her passion for education with a bequest to UBC, which today, continues to ensure vital funding for students in the Schools of Journalism and Social Work.

Dignitaries attend memorial at Sikh temple Black Press Hundreds of people

packed a Surrey gurdwara on the weekend to pay tribute to a newspaper publisher slain 14 years ago. Tara Singh Hayer was gunned down in his garage on Nov. 18, 1998. His killer hasn’t been found.

The celebration of life held at Surrey’s Gurdwara Sahib Brookside Sikh Temple was packed, and was attended by the Consul General of India and other community leaders. “It was both heartwarming and a great honour for my family to see so many pay tribute

to the life of my father,” said Tara’s son Dave Hayer, also the MLA for Surrey-Tynehead. “The huge outpouring of support during this celebration of life was further confirmation to all of us that to have a fair and just society the fight against hatred and terrorism must never falter.”

Library to brighten up Aging Cloverdale building to get new windows by Jennifer Lang The Cloverdale Library is getting new windows

and skylights along with other improvements, thanks to a $103,000 maintenance upgrade that’s being shared with the federal government. The $50,000 in federal funds will help the City of Surrey replace the library’s exterior walls, windows, skylights and part of the building’s roof. The city is sharing costs with the federal government, which is contributing $50,000 through its Community Infrastructure Improvement Fund, or CIIF. The fund supports, on a cost-share basis, repairs and improvements to existing community infrastructure accessible to the public. South Surrey–White Rock–Cloverdale MP Russ Heibert made the announcement Nov. 14 at the Cloverdale Library, on behalf of Lynne Yelich, Minister of State for Western Economic Diversification. He was joined by Surrey acting mayor Mary Martin and Coun. Barinder Rasode, along with library staff and Lorne Aniuk, project manager of operations and maintenance for the City of Surrey. “We’re replacing the windows on the lower level,” Aniuk said, “and replacing the exterior siding, it’s quite tired.” The skylights in the upper floor that are beyond their life cycle, he added, explaining a portion of the roof on the back end of the building will also be replaced. Located at 5642 176A St., the building is a former justice building that was refurbished to house the Cloverdale Library in 1985, meaning it’s older than it might appear. The library was formerly located in what’s presently home to the Surrey Archives next door. “The building was built in the early 1970s I would think so the windows are beyond their life cycle, and they’re single-panes, too,” Aniuk said. “We’ll get more energy efficiency by replacing the windows.” The project was just one of several similar announcements in Surrey last week. For instance, the Fleetwood Library is receiving $150,000 in federal funding through the same program, enabling the City of Surrey to replace boilers with highefficiency models, along with a hot water tank and cooling tower.

and adults,” says GVHBA Chair Blake Hudema. “I am delighted so many members of our association are participating in this annual initiative.” Among the locations you can drop off donations are many Black Press publications, developers and other housing industry professionals in Abbotsford, Burnaby, Coquitlam, Delta, Langley, Maple Ridge, New Westminster, North Vancouver, Port Moody, Port Coquitlam, Surrey, Richmond, Vancouver and West Vancouver.

A dinner of sharing Tamanawis students spreading Christmas cheer Dec. 4 For the 15th year, a Surrey

high school will host a heartwarming Christmas dinner for less-fortunate families next week. On Dec. 4, Tamanawis Secondary’s Leadership 10 class will hold a free Christmas Community Dinner for lower-income families. The students have been working to organize the event for months. More than 300 people are expected to attend, and Tamanawis students hope to inspire other schools or groups to help their communities and

spread Christmas cheer to low income families who would not otherwise get a Christmas like many take for granted. The Leadership 10 class will provide a turkey dinner courtesy of Tamanawis’ Culinary Arts students.

Tamanawis’ jazz band, choir, slam poetry team and dance team will provide entertainment. To finish the night with a bang, the students have arranged for Santa to stop by and distribute toys to the children. The toys will come from a toy drive organized within Tamanawis and with the help of nearby elementary schools. In addition, the Leadership class has received various donations from generous local businesses to help put on the dinner. For more information, call Julie Do at 778-580-6115 or email juliethuydo@gmail.com

New use for old garbage cans Church seeking specific Rubbermaid bins

Black Press Fleetwood Christian

Reformed Church is looking for certain old garbage cans to put to a new use. Ed Vander Ploeg is organizing the garbage can drive after 25 members of the church volunteered at Okana-

gan Gleaners for a week over the summer. Located in Oliver, Okanagan Gleaners takes vegetables that would normally be wasted and turns them into soup mixes that are served to the hungry around the world. “While we were there, we asked what

Options for book lovers

they needed, and the one thing they said was garbage cans for the compostable waste,” said Vander Ploeg. “The old ones are getting very worn out. And here we are from Surrey, where we are getting new garbage cans and people are wondering what to do with their old ones.”

The request is very specific: The production set up at Okanagan Gleaners is designed for the Rubbermaid Roughneck (77-litre) garbage cans. If you would like to donate your Rubbermaid Roughneck garbage can, call 604584-6244.

Surrey/North Delta Leader 37

Seahawks seek a repeat Local schools qualify for provincial volleyball tournaments

Black Press

The cLOVerdaLe Bobcats will host the Coquitlam Wildcats in the Vancouver Mainland Football League’s Pee Wee Division final Saturday at Cloverdale Athletic Park. The Bobcats, the third place finishers in the VMFL with an 8-2 (won-loss) record, upset the 9-1 North Surrey Hawks 6-0 in their semifinal game at Bear Creek Park last weekend. Coquitlam also won their semifinal game on the road, defeating the previously unbeaten Westside Warriors 14-11 in Vancouver. Kickoff Saturday is at 10 a.m. In an Atom Division playoff game, the North Delta Longhorns fell 36-30 to the Richmond Raiders. Carter Spencer and Xavier Singfield paced the North Delta offense with two touchdowns each, while leading the defense with their solid play were Taj Jhooty and Joban Bhullar.

by Rick Kupchuk One champiOnship has been suc-

cessfully defended. But the Seaquam Seahawks still have the most important title to go after. The North Delta school has won their second consecutive Fraser Valley Senior AAA High School volleyball championship, and will be hoping to repeat as B.C. champions at next week’s provincial tournament in Vancouver. But Seahawks co-head coach Todd Clarke admits a bit of good fortune will be needed to hang another B.C. School Sports championship banner in the school’s gymnasium. “I think the kids would be disappointed in anything less than fourth place,” said Clarke, who shares the coaching job with Bill Tereposky. “Making a semifinal and winning the final is the goal, but teams need lots to happen to win a tournament like this. The best Todd Clarke players need to be the best players, we need to be injury free, and there’s some court luck. We need to make our breaks and step up when we need to.” Seaquam goes into the 16-team provincial tournament as the topseed, and is grouped with co-host Crofton House Cougars, the Kelly Road Road Runners of Prince George, and the Carson Graham Eagles from North Vancouver. Those four teams will play a round robin Thursday (Nov. 29) to determine the one- through fourseeds for the playoff round Friday and Saturday. The Hawks won the Fraser Valley championship by defeating the M.E.I. Eagles in four sets (3-1) last Wednesday at the Langley Events Centre, which hosted Fraser Valley championship matches in several categories. Nicola Laniuk of Seaquam was the tournament‘s Most Valuable Player (MVP), while teammates Amy Davidson and Mandelyn Erikson were all-stars. “We didn’t play all that well, a little like playing in mud,” said Clarke. “But we hung in there together and supported each other through the tough times and ultimately refused to lose.” The Seahawks are one of five local teams to qualify for the provincial championships.

years, and fourth overall in the program’s history. “I do feel it a little bit more now,” she said two days after returning from Victoria. “But the day of, it just felt surreal. “I don’t think I have soaked it in. I am just so exhausted and so sore.” The Spartans were in the gold medal match in Victoria, playing against the Queen’s Gaels. Together the two soccer powerhouses had combined to win the past four CIS titles, with Trinity Western winning in 2008 and 2009 while Queen’s won in 2010 and 2011. And the teams played 120 minutes of scoreless soccer in Sunday’s final, setting up penalty kicks to determine the national champion. Both teams made their first two kicks, with Stephanie Chin and Alessandra Oliverio making the Spartans shots, but the third Queen’s shooter drilled her shot off the crossbar. Natalie Boyd, a Sullivan Heights Secondary graduate, put Trinity Western University (TWU) ahead 3-2 and

With the chance to win the game, captain Colleen Webber made no mistake, burying the winner — just like she did as a freshman three years ago when Trinity Western last won the title. “Fight, heart, everything past physicality because our bodies were

DR. MICHAEL QUINN 1917-2005 Currently conducting cognitive research in Barcelona Dr. Quinn’s wonderful gift gave me an opportunity to travel to Europe for the first time and experience the benefits of a new culture and research environment. With the UBC Vision Lab I have been studying how the brain processes visual information, and with the Multisensory Research Group in Barcelona, Spain I was able to expand this research to include touch. This has uncovered new knowledge about how we process information in our everyday lives. Understanding how the brain works under normal circumstances is a critical step in ultimately helping those with conditions such as Attention Deficit Disorder or Autism. Thank you Dr. Quinn. – Allison Brennan, PhD student Dr. Michael Quinn expressed his passion for clinical psychology with a bequest to UBC, ensuring vital funding for psychology faculty and students.

just so dead,” said Castillo of the effort needed to win. “I think it needed more of our minds and hearts to be put into it because we were so tired by that point.” The players did not want the game decided by penalty kicks — Castillo admitted she was crying as she walked to the centre of the pitch — but the team was confident. “We had great confidence in the girls that had been preparing and Funk is Funk and we all know what she can do in penalties,” coach Graham Roxburgh said. In the quarter-finals, the Spartans defeated the Wilfrid Laurier Golden Hawks 2-1 on goals from Jessica King and Castillo. They knocked off the host Victoria Vikes 1-0 in the semifinals with Boyd scoring the only goal. Castillo and Boyd were just two of eight local players on the TWU roster. Castillo, Boyd and Enver Creek Secondary graduate Tessa Meyer played in all 20 games for the Spartans, with Castillo and Boyd netting five goals each and Meyer notching three. Nikki Byrne of the Surrey United club scored three goals in 13 games, while North Delta’s Jenna Di Nunzio tallied seven times in 11 games. Vanessa Kovacs, also of North Delta, was on the field for 15 games – including all three at nationals, and scored one goal. Caitlin Haines and Vannessa Weibe, both from Fraser Valley (now Surrey) Christian high school, appeared in seven and six games respective. Boyd, a midfielder, was named a second-

team All-Canadian in Victoria. The Spartans finished sixth at last year’s nationals after a dominating regular season. “Anytime you have a team that is capable of winning and doesn’t and falls at a hurdle … it just adds that extra focus, that extra concentration to say ‘we are not going to let this happen again,’ ” Roxburgh said. The coach also added that win or lose, he wanted his team to know they were part of something special. “It is more than just soccer,” Roxburgh said. “Winning is obviously a great joy, an accomplishment. But I reminded the girls, winning or losing in the final wasn’t going to take away from what we have created. “Winning would just be the cherry on top.” As for the MVP award, Castillo said she was overwhelmed to win the award. “I didn’t expect it, I was shocked but obviously was very honoured,” the thirdyear defender said. “It is amazing to get it (but) it is a team award. I know I wouldn’t have gotten it without my teammates.” Roxburgh said Castillo has the capacity to be one of the best players in the country thanks largely to her great athleticism and confidence on the ball. “She is so smooth in possession and yet she is such a warrior on the back,” he said. “She wins timely tackles, she gets up headers, she has scored crucial goals on set pieces. Her contribution is invaluable.” “She was a standout player in the tournament like she has been all year.”

Sandhu and Gill were the goal scorers Saturday, but Douglas lost 3-2 in penalties to Cegep Garneau Elans. Sandhu and Gill were named tournament all-stars.

SNORING?

SLEEP APNEA?

As recommended by Dr. Gifford-Jones M. D.

Often snorers also have sleep apnea which causes being tired all day, high blood pressure, heart attacks, strokes, irregular heartbeats (per FDA website). Millions suffer needlessly and can stop their nightly ordeals.

To my surprise, after taking Bell Snoring & Sleep Apnea Relief #23 I really didn’t snore or gasp for air anymore. I sleep through the night and feel rested and refreshed in the morning. Mark Wilson, 40, Hudson, NH < Sleep apnea capsules worked first night! For last 15 years I had sleep apnea #23 and my doctor made me buy a CPAP machine, which I could not use. Finally Bell #23 helped the first night and every night thereafter. Like a miracle. Unbelievable. Karen Braun, 67, Glace Bay, NS < For 20 years I was waking up frequently gasping for air. During the day I would start napping every time I would sit down, because I was tired. Since taking Bell #23 sleeping 6 hours is heaven. It made a substantial change in my life. Mary C. Myrick, 62, Jackson, MS <It is such a joy not having to use the CPAP machine. I have had sleep apnea for 10 years. Using Bell#23, my wife says there is no more snoring or stoppage of breathing. It is such a joy to be able to roll to left or right with no hose or mask to deal with. Thank you Bell for a great relief. I suggest anyone with these problems to try it. You will be overjoyed with the results. Wayne Burse, 63, Beamsville, ON.

Helps to activate naturally millions of stem cells from our own bone marrow. The increase in stem cells released from the bone marrow into the blood stream have the potential to become other types of tissue cells with specialized function. Stem cells will multiply and are able to become heart cells, liver cells or any other organ. Located everywhere in our body, stem cells are even under our skin layered between the epidermis and dermis. This is why an increase in stem cells under our skin may help to create a more youthful cell that would replenish elastin and collagen and thus may make us look younger. If our bone marrow does not produce enough stem cells this can result in many illnesses, especially a weak heart, kidneys, liver, pancreas, in fact all healthy functions of our body are decreased. Sufficient stem cells in our body have a great potential of selfrepair and the ability to rejuvenate tissues. It does not contain live human stem cells as these can only be transplanted by surgery and are subject to immuno-suppressant drugs to avoid graft rejection. Naturopathic Doctor summarized his experience in writing after using this Stem Cell Activator: Used for all organ and tissue damage, heart attack damage, osteo-arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, traumatic brain injury, muscular dystrophy, Crohn’s disease, diabetes, lupus, spinal injuries, and other diseases and tissue damage. The results have been very satisfactory to us and to the patients and the time #63 varies with different patients depending on the extremity of the damage.

Kwantlen squads win one, lose one at home Men defeat Douglas College Royals, women top Langara Falcons by Rick Kupchuk For the third con-

secutive week, both the men’s and women’s basketball teams at Kwantlen Polytechnic University had identical records. Last weekend, with each team playing their first two home games of the PACWEST season, both Eagles squads came away with a win and a loss. The women came the closest to winning both games, earning a 65-52 victory over the Langara Falcons Friday night, then dropping an overtime decision Saturday. Leading 29-28 at halftime, the Kwantlen Eagles received double-digit scoring from a pair of players and an excellent all around effort from Jessica Villadiego of Surrey.

The graduate of Holy Cross high school grabbed seven rebounds, was credited with seven steals and scored seven points while adding six assists. Jeannine Yngresso, also a Holy Cross graduate, led all scorers with 19 points while Laura Geissert netted 10. “We competed hard, we were resilient when we were down earlier,” said head coach Dan Nayebzadeh. “After the first quarter, we really came together and started to play up to our potential.” The Eagles scored 21 first-quarter points against Douglas on Saturday, and led 30-24 at the half. But they needed a three-point shot from Sara Kurath at the buzzer to force overtime, but were outscored 10-2 in extra

Losing twice in a weekend for just the second

time this season, the Valley West Hawks have slipped into a tie for fifth place in the BC Hockey Major Midget League. The Hawks were drubbed 6-2 by the Vancouver Chiefs Saturday evening in Coquitlam, then were blasted 7-2 by the same team Sunday afternoon at the Langley Events Centre. Valley West went into the weekend series just four points back of the Chiefs with two games in hand, but are now eight points behind the league’s fourth-place team. Saturday’s game was close for 40 minutes, with the two rivals tied 1-1 after the first period and the Chiefs leading 3-2 after two. Matthew Cox of White Rock scored both goals for the Hawks, each score coming on the power play to tie the game after the Chiefs took a one-goal lead. Vancouver went ahead 3-2 with two minutes to go in the second period, then notched three unanswered goals in the third. Four of the six Chiefs goals came while on the power play. Vancouver was in control throughout Sunday’s match. They held a 3-0 lead after 20 minutes, and were ahead 4-2 as the game reached the second intermission. Spencer Unger got the first Hawks goal, the team’s third power play tally of the weekend. Mitch Newsome scored while shorthanded for Valley West’s third goal. The Hawks are tied for fifth place with the Vancouver Canadians, both with 7-7-2 (won-lost-tied) records. Valley West will be looking to break the deadlock over the next three weekends, when they play three of the four teams at the bottom of the standings in the 11-team league. They host the 6-9-1 North Island Silvertips Saturday at 7:15 p.m. and Sunday at 10:45 a.m. in the Langley Events Centre. They’re in Nelson for two games against the 2-13-1 Kootenay Ice before starting the second half of the schedule with a pair of games at the South Surrey Arena with the 1-15 Thompson Blazers.

Bosir put up huge numbers with 25 points and 21 rebounds, and earned PACWEST Player of the Week honors for his efforts.

SAS Surrey won the Award for Excellence in the Prevention and Treatment of Substance Abuse, which came with a $5,000 prize. The SAS Surrey program is a participant-centered approach to recovery for female youth and women who choose to seek sobriety, exit the sex trade, or are at risk of being sexually exploited due to abuse, addiction, or homelessness. Six other organizations shared the remaining $55,000 in awards in various categories “These expertly managed non-profits have improved the communities they operate in, helping countless families and individuals nationwide,” said Jason Clemens, Fraser Institute executive vice-president “We’re pleased to recognize their outstanding work.” The Donner Awards are Canada’s largest recognition program for non-profit social service agencies, established in 1998 to recognize and encourage best practices in non-profit management and increase public confidence and support for Canada’s non-profit sector. The awards are administered by the Fraser Institute on behalf of the Donner Canadian Foundation. This year, 554 non-profit social service agencies from across Canada applied for the awards. Participating organizations were ranked on their performance in 10 key areas, including management and governance, the use of staff and volunteers, innovation, program costs, and outcome monitoring.

dr. craig Kielburger speaks to Kwantlen polytechnic university students at a recent philosophers’ teahouse.

ore than 300 Kwantlen Polytechnic University (KPU) students, faculty, and representatives from local high schools gathered to listen to Dr. Craig Kielburger, founder of Free The Children and Me to We, present the Philosopher’s Teahouse: Waken the Activist Within event. Kielburger encouraged students at the symposium to become passionate activists within their communities and to create sustainable change in their lives now and for the future. “Craig Kielburger was amazing and inspirational,” said Dr. Wendy Royal, an English language studies student and founder of the Philosopher’s Teahouse initiative. “I am also very gratified that many of the objectives of the Teahouse seem to have been met, in terms of building bridges between ESL, international and local students; encouraging students to be more active and engaged in campus life and creating a forum for dialogue

Tea-time for change amongst students of different cultures and cultural perspectives.” Kielburger’s presentation prompted discussions about the importance of being a catalyst of change, and the relevance of volunteering and social activism. The event also practiced many of KPU’s commitments to the development of critical awareness, and cultural sensitivity. Kielburger and his brother Marc are no strangers to KPU. Both received honorary Doctor of Laws at KPU’s spring 2012 convocation ceremony. The Kielburger brothers became world-renowned through the founding of Free The Children, an international charity and the largest network of children helping children through education, in 1995.

through televised broadcasts, and inspiring a journey of lifelong social action. Also co-founded by the brothers is Me to We, a social enterprise that provides people with better choices for a better world, including socially conscious and environmentally friendly clothes and books, as well as inspirational trip experiences and motivational speakers. KPU’s Philosopher’s Teahouse is a student-focused initiative that provides an interdisciplinary forum for international, ESL and local students to dialogue on topical issues, learn from each other’s cultural perspectives and participate in effecting positive change on their campus. Volunteers from the Kwantlen Student Association and Students in Free Enterprise facilitated the discussion groups, promoting student leadership and personal development. This was the fifth Philosopher’s Teahouse.
