Sky’s the limit for paraplegic pilot Ben Goodridge hopes to inspire others to fly by Evan Seal
S
ince he was a young child, Ben Goodridge has dreamed about flying. You could say it’s his dad’s fault. His outgoing, often thrill-seeking, pilot father once arrived at Goodridge’s elementary school and told the teachers his son had a doctor’s appointment. Within minutes, the two were in his father’s small plane doing multiple barrel rolls high above the school. “I had to promise my dad not to tell anyone it was us flying that day,” Goodridge recalls. It’s a memory that still brings a smile to his face. Taking his first flight with his dad was the spark that ignited a lifelong Ben Goodridge passion. “It was the buzz and the open space,” says Goodridge, now 35, in a thick English accent. “Seeing the world by air as a kid, it always seemed so cool. I always felt at home, it seemed like the right place to be.” For Goodridge, a Delta resident, the delight of flight is especially freeing.
“I really want to see the expression on people’s faces.”

Convenience store clerk shot on Christmas Day by Sheila Reynolds THE SURREY man accused of killing a convenience store worker on Christmas Day in 2011 pleaded guilty to manslaughter Thursday, admitting he shot 27-year-old Alok Gupta with a sawed-off rifle during a robbery in which he stole less than $65. William Andrew Whiteside, 23, a
fair-skinned man with short strawberryblond hair and tattooed arms, was originally charged with second-degree murder, but pleaded guilty to the lesser charge in Surrey Provincial Court. Lawyers are asking for a 16-year jail sentence, minus the 10 months Whiteside has been in custody. See SHOOTER / Page 3 Alok Gupta

Pilot: Has teamed up with Surrey flight school From page 1 As a two-year-old boy on holidays with his parents in the south of France, Goodridge somehow got away from the grownups and ran out onto a crowded street. He was struck by a car – a tragic accident that left him a paraplegic. Memories of life before losing the use of his legs have long since been forgotten. “I really don’t remember life without my wheelchair, so I’ve always had to deal with it, make the best of it,” Goodridge says. Growing up in England, he would often go flying recreationally with his father and brother, and being the younger of the two siblings, was always relegated to the back seat of the aircraft. “I can remember always being envious of my older brother because he got to sit in the front seat of the plane,” says Goodridge. He always knew he wanted to be a pilot, but finding a school that would certify a paraplegic proved difficult, since traditional flight requires the use of both hand and foot pedals. However, after doing some research he found a school in California that would certify him using a hand-only controlled aircraft. After completing the six-month Ben Goodridge course, Goodridge went back to England with a plan to help others with physical challenges experience the thrill of commanding their own plane. But flying in Europe, and especially England, is viewed as a luxury due to the high costs of the hobby and few airstrips. Clients were difficult to find. Since Goodridge holds both Canadian and British citizenship, he decided to give Canada a try, due to the country’s wide-open spaces and a more recreational and available flying community. During a trip here last year, Goodridge visited some local flying schools and asked about starting a program specifically designed for disabled pilots. He found a receptive ear in King George Aviation owner Arnold Klappe. “From the beginning, Arnold has been great,” says Goodridge.
“I really want to share my dream with other paraplegics or with people who didn’t know this was possible.”

Above: Ben Goodridge takes a flight over Boundary Bay in South Surrey. The Delta man was paralyzed in a car accident in France when he was just two years old, and while he needs a wheelchair to get around on land (below), Goodridge says he finds exhilarating freedom in the air. “We really feel we can develop a niche market opportunity right here in Surrey that isn’t available anywhere else in Canada in terms of having a dedicated hand-controlled aircraft.” King George Aviation, located just south of Colebrook Road off King George Highway, offers pilot training, plane rentals, and sightseeing or discovery flights. The cost of getting a pilot’s licence for an ultralight aircraft is on average $3,500, substantially less than one for conventional aircraft, and ultralight credits are transferable towards a full pilot’s licence. And younger pilots (age 16 and older) are eligible to gain elective credits toward high school graduation. On average, earning an ultralight pilot’s licence requires 20 hours of ground school with 17 hours of flight time. “For me it’s been a very emotional journey,” Goodridge says of earning his wings. “I really want to share my dream with other paraplegics or with people who didn’t know this was possible. I really want to see the expression on people’s faces. “It’s a hell of a buzz.”

Clark’s vow to block new road or bridge tolls is being dismissed as unproductive and perhaps irrelevant by TransLink’s board chair. Nancy Olewiler said Clark’s statement in Langley March 24 rejecting universal road pricing or tolling may pose a barrier to solving TransLink’s long-term funding challenge and expanding the transit system in Metro Vancouver. “We’re going to wait and see whether that kind of statement becomes policy or not,” Olewiler said. “We have a current premier who has made an announcement. But that isn’t too helpful in terms of deciding how to move forward.” She made the comments after being asked

to have a free alternative, I don’t know what the free alternative to the Pattullo would be,” Olewiler said. “The Alex Fraser? Not so much.

about TransLink’s plans to rebuild the aging Pattullo Bridge and whether the replacement will be tolled. Olewiler said that’s one example of why the province needs to reform its current tolling policy, which allows tolls only on new infrastructure and only if there’s a reasonable free alternative. The provincial tolling policy blocks any move to road pricing, or to apply small tolls to all bridges in the region, as Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts has repeatedly proposed. The Port Mann Bridge was tolled on the basis the Pattullo offers a viable free alternative, but critics say that already questionable logic falls apart if both the Pattullo and the Massey Tunnel are also replaced with toll bridges. “Right now, if you have

can explore road pricing but must build substantial public support if the province is to consider approving it. There are many potential permutations of road pricing, but some mayors suggest it would see motorists pay small per kilometre fees to drive any significant distance in the region, rather than larger tolls only at certain bridges. There’s also been talk that it could partly replace other existing taxes. “Road pricing isn’t something that can happen today or tomorrow, but it would be nice to know it’s something we can continue to look at,” Olewiler said. Mayors’ Council Chair Richard Walton the mayors are continuing their discussions with Polak this month and as far as he is aware nothing has been taken off the table. Walton said the aim is to have a structured public discussion on road pricing over the next year or two, adding it would be a major policy shift that should not be rushed. “If anyone in senior government dismisses road pricing right now before there’s even a meaningful public dialogue, I don’t think that’s good policy,” he said. “We’re hoping all the political parties will approach this with an open mind, rather than set policy before the research and public discussion has taken place.” Olewiler said a short list of options to replace the Pattullo will go out to public consultations in mid-May. She said Surrey and New Westminster municipal representatives have agreed to work together to try to find a mutually agreeable configuration of a new bridge, which New Westminster residents fear will increase local traffic. Olewiler said the province also needs to be part of the Pattullo discussion to deal with routing of trucks and connections to provincial highways like the South Fraser Perimeter Road and Highway 1. Those talks with government will have to wait until after the election, she said, but added it’s important to “make sure the big picture is looked at and this isn’t just our little bridge in the middle of it.”

Transit use up in 2012 amid cost-cutting drive
by Jeff Nagel
fuel-efficient vehicles is another factor. Transit use is also growing – TransLink reported the number of transit trips grew nearly two per cent last year to 363 million. Financial statements show TransLink ended 2012 with a small surplus, thanks to aggressive cost-cutting. The transportation agency saved about $45 million more than it planned, much of it from running leaner bus service. Chief financial officer Cathy McLay said some of the extra money came from revenue gains. TransLink’s bus route optimization – where service is strategically shifted from underused routes to ones where more riders can be carried – has helped pull in more fare revenue. The bigger savings have helped TransLink forego its original plan – opposed by area mayors – to raise property taxes an average of $23 per home. Customer satisfaction ratings are up and complaints are down, McLay said, in part due to fewer SkyTrain system stoppages or bus breakdowns. TransLink took in 15 per cent more in tolls last year from drivers using the Golden Ears Bridge. Bus service spending accounts for about half of TransLink’s $1.3-billion budget.
Drivers are continuing to gas up less within
Metro Vancouver, resulting in an ongoing drag on TransLink’s finances. Fuel sold in the region dropped 2.1 per cent in 2012, according to TransLink’s year-end report. The transportation authority’s actual fuel tax revenue was up by 7.5 per cent to more than $335 million, but the gain only happened because TransLink’s dedicated tax was raised two cents to 17 cents per litre in April of 2012. “I think it’s a long-term trend,” TransLink board chair Nancy Olewiler said. “I don’t think we can count on fuel revenue being at the same level as in the past.” Fuel tax sales in the region have declined an average of two per cent a year for the past five years. “I don’t think it’s ever going to go back. Unless gasoline prices go back down below $1 a litre and people start going nuts again.” Olewiler attributes the drop to drivers simply not driving as much, and not primarily from them seeking cheaper gas in the U.S. or Fraser Valley. She said a trend of motorists to choose more

GOVERNANCE
Remember the HST
RAESIDE
T
he HST is gone, finally. And while Premier Christy Clark didn’t miss the opportunity to remind voters that the harmonized sales tax had been beneficial to the film industry, manufacturers and other businesses that received input tax credits, the politicking rang a little hollow. The fact is that the HST – good or bad – became more than a tax. Historically, it will be seen as a symbol of everything that went wrong with the BC Liberal government since being granted its last mandate in 2009 – a symbol of everything B.C. governments, no matter the political stripe, should avoid in future. It’s fact that former Premier Gordon Campbell went to the polls last election stating he was not considering adopting a harmonized sales tax. It’s also fact that within weeks of being elected, the BC Liberals were rolling out plans for the HST. It was such a good thing for the province, voters were told (among the pluses, huge cash payments for provincial coffers from the federal government), that the government had had a sudden change of heart. A significantly large segment of the electorate evidently didn’t believe the message – or the timeline. They concluded they had been deceived. And while B.C. Liberal loyals have muttered darkly ever since about “misinformation” spread by Bill Vander Zalm and the Stop HST movement, the latter clearly had their fingers closer to the pulse of public feeling. Even some of the staunchest Liberals were forced to admit they had done a horrible job of selling the HST, especially after opponents gathered sufficient votes to call for a referendum. By the time then-finance minister Kevin Falcon, launched a “stick figure” campaign to explain the common-sense virtues of the HST to the public, the majority of voters were having none of it. There may have been many good reasons for an HST, but mishandling killed it, virtues, faults and all. And the writing is on the wall for whichever party forms the next government, should they choose to read it. A mandate to govern is not a signal for hubris, or over-confidence bordering on contempt for public opinion. It is not a blanket approval for anything a government decides to introduce. It is not an indication that democratic process is suspended, that questions won’t be asked, or that a docile public has gone to sleep for the next four years. Let’s hope future governments learn the lesson. – Black Press
ELECTION
his is the first of a series of policy commentaries on the four main parties contesting the 2013 B.C. election. I’m starting with the B.C. Green Party, which has higher than usual hopes for the 2013 election. It was also the first to put out a substantial policy document, albeit one that is still being debated and altered. Green Book 2013 continues the Utopian positions that only a party with no chance of forming a government has the luxury to put forward. For example, they would double the area of parks in B.C., but take 100 years to do it. Immediately, they would almost double the carbon tax, taking it from seven to 12 cents on a litre of gasoline. Greens would extend this steeply increased carbon tax to industries such as natural gas and cement production. Leader Jane Sterk told me she expects cement producers and the like to adapt, rather than shut down as their competitive position erodes. And what about the extra billions in carbon tax revenues?

Reading through Green Book 2013, I’m left with the impression that much of it remains calculated as a soothing message for urban voters who have been convinced it’s courageous to drive their cars down to an anti-tanker protest. If Weaver, Sterk or any other Greens get elected, it will be surfing a wave of protest votes from people weary of the B.C. Liberals and the NDP. It will not be due to the practicality or even internal consistency of their polices. It’s still pretty easy being Green.

Mental Incinerator pollution outweighs benefits illness an election priority Re: “meTRO Vancouver should end garbage
Thank yOu for speaking out on
the issue of mental illness in your newspaper. Mental illness surpasses cancer in its impact on family life, the workplace, and our communities. Clearly, we cannot afford to keep ignoring this problem. The government can cut prison costs by investing in people instead of jails. We have regressed by 170 years of using jails as a fall-back treatment. Politicians can do a great service for vulnerable people and their loved ones by making this issue a priority for their election platforms.
incineration: Study.” Incinerators are heavy polluters that are not any better to the environment than garbage landfills. I agree with the report written by Marc Lee that notes that incineration has little benefits for waste reduction and lowers the quality of health and air. Electricity generated by burning garbage is not any better than using a coal- or oil-based generator, seeing as they pollute just as much. Also, as stated in the report, burning garbage does not get
rid of it altogether, it just creates ash that must be landfilled. Building another incinerator is just going to add to the pollution and the ash created. If another incinerator is built, there will be no need for making further efforts to recycle because there will be extra garbage capacity, and the objective for diverting 70 per cent of waste from landfills by 2015 will not be completed. Yes, we will have more electricity, but the pollution created offsets by far that benefit. If we do continue to reduce waste to
nothing, the incinerators will become useless and will have to be torn down and the new incinerator will be a waste of money. Increasing the recycling capacity is a far better option. If the government doesn’t care about pollution from incinerators, then please at least think about the next generation and how the air quality will be for us.

Special hospitals needed
Re: The leadeR’s series on mental
illness. Mental illness has always been seen as a crime issue instead of a health issue. As reporter Kevin Diakiw has shown in his articles, families with members suffering from this had health issues before committing crimes. It is a shame that people who need help get incarcerated before they get the help, and when they get out, the proper medication is not available. One out of three Canadian people in jail are mental health victims who are not being treated as patients, but are restrained as criminals. In my opinion, I believe that it would be less costly and more effective for society as a whole if we keep those suffering from mental illness medicated and controlled as opposed to incarcerated and controlled. There should be a special hospital for those with mental illnesses, where they would get the support they need. Many will claim that doing that would be costly, but in the long run, it would save the government and us, the taxpayers, a lot of money. I urge the government to consider these facts, and to make the better choice for all of us, so we can all live in a better future. Sophia Zeng

The view looking west on 72 avenue towards highway 91. a letter writer says work to replace the traffic lights at this intersection with an interchange should begin right away.
lights at 72 Avenue still far off.” If the interchange construction project will not affect Burns Bog in any way at all, I say officials should start construction as soon as they can fund it. The traffic lights at 72 Avenue and Highway 91 cause long back-ups, wasting many people’s precious time waiting for the light to change so they can get going. Highway 91 is busy enough without all the congestion caused by the traffic lights. It’s getting to be a dangerous problem as well, since southbound vehicles waiting to turn gets jammed far past the left-turn lanes. It’s silly to not have a timeline for this project; an interchange at 72 Avenue is exactly what we need to save time, energy, and generally make life easier. Construction for the interchange will take about three years, so why not start now? Why wait another year to make the final decisions? Motorists have been asking for an interchange for long enough.

Teach kids about Internet dangers Re: “Online predator now living in Surrey.” I think that the main solution is to teach kids to not talk to strangers online. If we do not, children everywhere will be in danger from people like Jeffrey Goddard. Facebook is very useful for many things, such as homework, talking with friends, and planning events. But now people are using it to commit crimes. I think we should keep a closer watch on our children and make sure they do not talk to random strangers on Facebook and only friend people that they actually know. Many people on Facebook have roughly 500 “friends” and more than half they do not know. I think Facebook and other social network users should make sure they don’t talk with someone they don’t know anything about. I think this should be taught in school as well as home so the kids know what a big threat this is and can be more careful.
Dustin Wong
Tighter restrictions JeffRey GOddaRd has been
convicted before, and now he’s been convicted again. Accused of impersonation and luring children under 16 via the Internet, he now has been moved to Surrey, a city with more children than anywhere else in the area. Although he is restricted from social networking sites, and from interacting with anyone 16 years of
age or under, I believe he shouldn’t be allowed to roam around, should be kept on tighter restrictions, and should be watched closely so the risk of re-offending will be greatly reduced. In addition, kids should be taught the dangers that can be involved with the Internet, and to be more wary of strangers. As a citizen of Surrey, I myself would be concerned for the well-being of my child. Laura Wong
Ban guns, not pot
many B.C. residents smoke marijuana or have at least tried it once, and they shouldn’t be banned from the U.S. for admitting they did. Especially after Washington State residents voted to legalize marijuana. Some people have only smoked pot once, and perhaps when they were young. I think that banning them from a country is a little harsh. Smoking marijuana does more harm to the user than it does to others. The Americans should be more focused on banning guns and fixing their economy, not banning people for admitting to pot use. There are a lot of other things that are far more dangerous than marijuana.
Hema Morgan, Surrey
Psychological test for criminals i am commenting on the recent
article about the online predator living in Surrey. I think criminals shouldn’t be released unless they are not expected to re-offend. If police suspect a criminal is going to re-offend, then why would they release the criminal anyway? They should still serve in jail until their sentence is over, but then be tested psychologically to see if they are likely to re-offend. This would save money from arresting the criminals and putting them in jail again. Instead of having two separate arrests, and two sentences, you could just keep them in jail for a few months more and make sure he/she doesn’t re-offend. Even when they are let into society, there should still be restrictions.

NDP claims budget hiding a big deficit
Angie Bunnell takes the challenge for Surrey!
GREEN FIGHTERS Fit ’n’ Healthy with Kin’s
by Tom Fletcher The B.C. NDP has kicked off its
election campaign with a more detailed attack on the B.C. Liberal government’s pre-election budget, estimating it conceals a deficit of $790 million. NDP finance critic Bruce Ralston presented his version of the budget in an effort to show it is not balanced, as claimed by Finance Minister Mike de Jong. The NDP has signalled it will run deficits if it forms a government May 15. Ralston said the party will present its own fiscal plan this week, with taxes and spending aimed at keeping the deficit from rising beyond $800 million this year. Ralston said further analysis of the February budget forecasts unrealistically low increases in spending, especially in the current fiscal year, where total spending is
budgeted to rise only 0.8 per cent. The average spending increase in the past four years has been three per cent, and it is “not realistic” that it would suddenly be contained to less than one per cent, Ralston said. In response, De Jong pointed to a new report by Moody’s Investors Service, praising B.C.’s “strong track record of meeting budget targets” and reaffirming its triple-A credit rating after studying the February budget. “Which is more credible, is really the question,” de Jong said. Ralston also questioned the $625 million budgeted for asset sales in the next two years, comparing it to the $381 million worth of provincial assets sold between 2001 and 2010. The finance ministry has only identified 16 of 100 properties up for sale, and none have actually been sold yet, he said. De Jong presented the government’s long-promised balanced
budget in February, after a string of deficits triggered by the 2009 international financial crisis and the dismantling of the Harmonized Sales Tax. He credited public service unions for agreeing to minimal wage increases and other strict spending controls for the low projected increase in spending. De Jong also borrowed from the NDP’s plans to raise revenues, increasing the income tax rate on large business from 10 per cent to 11 effective April 1. NDP leader Adrian Dix has promised to increase it to 12 per cent, and to impose an unspecified increase on personal incomes above $150,000 a year. De Jong announced in February that personal income taxes for those earning $150,000 or more would rise 2.1 per cent to 16.8 per cent starting next January, but the increase would be rolled back after two years.
Arrest in Christmas Eve killing
by Kevin Diakiw
PoliCe have laid charges in the killing of Bradley McPherson 16 months ago. The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT) announced Monday it has secured charges against an individual in the killing of McPherson on Dec. 24, 2011. McPherson was attending a house party that night when he was killed by another
person at the event. At the time, IHIT was looking for a medium- to large-built, dark-skinned male, about 6’, between the ages of 18 and 25. He was wearing a hoodie with a distinctive white crest or a camouflage jacket. The name of the accused was not released in time for The Leader’s press time on Monday morning.

all-candidates’ meeting for candidates competing to represent Delta-South. This year’s event will be held at Delta Secondary School’s Genesis Theatre, 5005 45 Ave., on Tuesday, April 16, from 6:45 to 9 p.m. Independent MLA Vicki Huntington, B.C. Liberal candidate Bruce McDonald, and BC NDP candidate Nic Slater will be on hand to answer questions.
The event is in partnership with the Ladner Business Association and the Tsawwassen Business Improvement Association, and will be televised by Delta Cable. • The Delta Chamber of Commerce will also be holding an all-candidates’ meeting for the Delta-South riding on Wednesday, May 1, from 7-9 p.m. at the Delta Town &

The man walked into the North Surrey corner store, began screaming, and grabbed a jug of milk and went outside, pouring the milk onto himself. Police were called to the 13100-block 104 Avenue store on March 28. The man, who police say was on drugs, said he’d been pepper-sprayed. Ambulance crews arrived to treat the man, and discovered he’d been shot in the leg. He was taken to hospital and treated for non-life threatening injuries. Surrey RCMP are asking that anyone who may have seen the man heading towards the convenience store to contact them at 604-599-0502.

Volunteers have created faithful replica of the original B.c. electric Railway station on 176A street near Highway 10.
Cloverdale Station nears completion
Passengers able to board the train in June by Jennifer Lang A slice of railway history is com-
ing to life at the foot of 176A Street, just south of Highway 10, where a faithful replica of the original B.C. Electric Railway station that acted as a bustling commuter passenger hub for decades is nearly complete. For carpenter Cole Hilton, working on Cloverdale Station is a dream assignment. “I wish I could get paid to do this all the time,” Hilton said last week. “It’s actual, traditional carpentry.” He’s been installing wainscotting, laying down flooring and performing other woodworking tasks that match the craftsmanship that went into the original, built around 1910 at the inception of the BCER’s Interurban passenger rail line. “The actual work that’s being done is what would have been done when it was being built,” he said, pausing to cut a section of flooring to size. “That’s what’s neat.” The Fraser Valley Heritage Railway Society (FVHRS) has spent the past decade working to return an Interurban car to the original line.
The society moved its operations from Sullivan Station to Cloverdale this past August, and launched a sponsorship campaign for Cloverdale Station, attracting 27 sponsors to the construction project, which broke ground in November. The station has been constructed using the original plans, and, once complete in a few weeks, will be as close to the original as possible. “The historical aspect of it is pretty huge,” Hilton said. “It’s not just building a train station, it’s actually building a train station that represents what was originally here. We’re not building a BC Transit bus stop.” Cloverdale’s newest heritage attraction is nearly ready to greet the first modern-day passengers to ride the Interurban in 60 years. Inside the station, a few concessions to modern safety standards have been necessary. Rather than a potbellied stove, heat is being provided by electric baseboard heaters, said FVHRS secretary Allen Aubert. See SPONSORS / Page 14

But otherwise, everything from the windows, doors, hinges and brackets right down to the paint colours, cream and red, are what they would have looked like in the original. “The paint colours have all been matched to their true, historic colours,” Aubert said.

cash or labour. Their generosity has made it possible to add the so-called extras, from the cedar shingles and wooden siding to the singlehung sash windows, which are custommade, double-glazed, and come courtesy of BC Hydro. Kwantlen Polytechnic University’s school of horticulture recently offered to design and install landscaping, the final piece of the puzzle. Inside, the station has two waiting rooms. One will be used as an overflow waiting area for passengers this summer, and in the winter, it will be used for heritage programming. The FVHRS is partnering with the Surrey Museum to create displays.
Interested residents have the opportunity to provide written comments regarding the application at this time. Comments are to be received before 12:00 noon, April 15, 2013.

The ticket wicket windows offer a 180-degree view onto the track, a spur line that joins the Southern Railway. In the station’s heyday, there was a steam train line along 176 Street in Cloverdale, Aubert says. “This town had three major rail lines. This wasn’t a rodeo town,” he smiled. “This was a railway town.” On June 22, the society will officially launch limited passenger service, running hourly, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., weekends to Thanksgiving. The trip from Cloverdale to Sullivan Station and return will last approximately 30 minutes. More than 100 new volunteers are being trained to work as conductors, operators, ticket masters and maintenance crew. The June launch is a month later than planned. There are still a few technical glitches to work out, Aubert said. The project is in partnership with the City of Surrey and the Southern Railway of B.C., with the assistance of BC Hydro.

Surrey netminder to turn pro after four years at Bowling Green University
Hammond signs with Ottawa by Nick Greenizan
A
ndrew Hammond is one step closer to realizing a dream of playing in the National Hockey League. And though it’s a dream shared by nearly every youngster who grows up playing hockey in Canada, the 25-year-old Surrey native admits now – just days after signing with the Ottawa Senators – that it wasn’t a dream he spent much time considering during his days tending goal in the BC Hockey League (BCHL). “It wasn’t something I thought about about in the BCHL, because at the time I was more focused on securing a scholarship,” Hammond said Hammond from Binghamton, N.Y., where he was setting in with the Senators’ American Hockey League team. “When I was a kid, it was always something you dream of, but then you progress through the different levels of hockey (and) start realizing it’s a very real possibility.” Last month, Hammond wrapped up his senior year at Bowling Green State University in Ohio and signed a two-year entry-level contract with the Senators. “The whole experience has been great, but I think the best part was calling my parents, brother and sister,” he said. “All of them have always been really supportive and proud of me but to tell them what was happening was really special.” The Earl Marriott Secondary grad is likely a familiar name to those who follow the BC Hockey League – after beginning his juniorhockey career with the Westside Warriors, he played 32 games with

Andrew Hammond, pictured while playing goal for Bowling Green University, has signed a contract with the Ottawa Senators of the National Hockey League. the Surrey Eagles in 2007-08 before being shipped to Vernon, where he helped lead the Vipers to a RBC Cup national championship – the first for the team in 18 years – before heading to the NCAA with Bowling Green. “Winning the Royal Bank Cup is still my best memory,” said Hammond, a Semiahmoo Minor Hockey Association alum. “Signing with Ottawa is very exciting, but I still haven’t accomplished anything. My goal is to play in the NHL and all this does is give me an opportunity to get closer to
that goal.” Hammond came to the attention to the Senators after a strong four-year NCAA career; this past season he led the team into the second round of the playoffs, and in 2011/’12, he played in every one of his team’s 44 games. “Ottawa was a team that had come up a few times when talking to my agent – I had known they had come out to watch me this year – but our season ended (March 23) and I didn’t really know what my options would be the next morning,” Hammond explained.
“Then my agent called me and told me Ottawa had an offer on the table.” Hammond’s agent told him he expected a few other offers to roll in too, but that Ottawa’s was likely going to be the best choice. Plus, contract details aside, playing for a Canadian team was also a dream for the Surrey netminder. “It seemed like a great fit, and they were open to letting me finish school and get my degree, which was one of the most important things for me,” said Hammond, who will return to Bowling Green State’s
campus in mid-April to complete his final classes. Returning to school to tie up loose ends will also give Hammond the chance to reflect on a college career that really has gone from one extreme – not winning a single game as a freshman; to the other – going pro. “My freshman year was difficult,” he said. “I felt like I had some really good games, but it never seemed to go my way. “Looking back, that adversity was great for me. It has driven me to keep working harder every year.”

Soccer squads set for Provincial Cup play Surrey United won both men’s and women’s competitions a year ago
by Rick Kupchuk Surrey united will
attempt to repeat a rare
double in Provincial Cup play. The soccer club won both the Men’s A and
Women’s A championships last spring, sending both squads to the national championships
last October. The Surrey United women’s team will be seeking a 10th consecutive provincial championship, and are again the favourites this season. United is seeded first in the 12-team knockout playoff, and will receive a bye through the first round. They will play at home in a quarterfinal contest the weekend of April 20-21. United finished second in the Metro Women’s Soccer League’s Premier A division with a 10-1-2 (won-tied-lost) record. The BC Soccer Association announced the draw for their provincial championship competitions last Tuesday morning (April 2), and in the 16-team Men’s A group, the Delta United Hurricanes earned the number-two seed. The first round will be played April 13-14, and Delta will host Vancouver Metro Soccer League (VMSL) rivals West Van FC. The Hurricanes were sixth in the VMSL with a 9-6-7
