Third-party suppliers the largest portion of $655 million spent last year
Surrey’s annual costs rise $56 million Kevin Diakiw Black Press
It cost $56 million more to run the city last year compared to 2011, according to financial figures released this week. Surrey’s 2012 Statement of Financial Information details how much money was received and how much was spent. The city spent $655 million in 2012, and of that, $506 million went to suppliers and
$153 million went to staff costs, which was a $3-million increase from the year prior. The big jump came by way of increases to third-party suppliers, which jumped by $53 million from 2011’s $453 million. City staff say that’s mostly due to a “very aggressive capital program” that includes the construction of a new city hall and initiatives in the “Build Surrey” program. Last year, Surrey council rang up $798,217, a
marginal drop from the $799,433 in the year prior. But a shift in spending priorities is evident as council spent 10 per cent less on civic trips ($114,990) but 40 per cent more on cellphones, faxes and Internet service ($35,896). The biggest spender on council was Coun. Marvin Hunt, who rang up $31,457. That was an increase of $11,958 from the year prior and is mostly due to civic trips. They included the World e-Government Organi-
zation in Barcelona, Spain ($5,444;) the Federation of Canadian Municipalities (FCM) Conference in Saskatoon, Sask. ($2,886); the World Hydrogen Energy Conference in Toronto, Ont. ($2,582); and the FCM Board Meeting, also in Toronto ($2,292). Closer to home, Hunt went to $1,522 worth of local events and, like all councillors, had car expenses. › see page A4

The historic White Rock Mufflers building on Marine Drive – still bearing the Santa Barbara logo it received while being used as a location for the TV series Psych – is prepared for demolition following the removal of asbestos. Final demolition permit for the 1940s-era building is expected within the next two weeks, making way for a combined residential and commercial development.
Warning issued after offender’s release The B.C. Corrections Branch issued a warning this week that a high-risk sex offender is now living in Surrey. Raymond Caissie, 42, was just released from jail into an unspecified neighbourhood of Surrey after serving a 22-year sentence for a violent sex assault. He is considered by B.C. Corrections as a high-risk offender, resulting in a comRaymond Caissie munity warning with his release. ‘high risk’ News of the release into Surrey out-
raged Mayor Dianne Watts. “The safety of the public has to come first and foremost,” Watts said, noting if Caissie is deemed high risk after serving 22 years, he shouldn’t be released. “Why has he been released? It makes no sense.” Caissie is Caucasian, with short brown hair and brown eyes. He is five-foot-11 and weighs 165 pounds. He has a criminal history including two counts of sexual assault with a weapon;

two counts of forcible confinement and robbery; break, enter and theft; theft over $1,000; and possession of stolen property. He is currently on bail supervision. He is subject to close monitoring by police and has several conditions, including staying in B.C. He is not to possess a knife (except for eating) and cannot be in possession of a weapon or tools for restraint, including duct tape or wire. He is also not to consume drugs.
Without an option handy, Coun. Marvin Hunt plans to do double-duty for another six months to avoid a municipal byelection – resolving to donate his council pay to two charities. Hunt had told Black Press in March – prior to winning the Surre y-Panorama riding for the BC Liberals – that he would avoid triggering a civic Marvin Hunt byelection by doing both jobs MLA/councillor until January. However, soon after the May 14 election, Premier Christy Clark asked all incumbent councillors to obtain unpaid leaves of absence. That would require the support of council and, as Peace Arch News reported May 28, a majority of Surrey councillors indicated they would oppose a leave of absence. A June 13 memo from city staff indicates a byelection would cost about $635,000 and would deplete the Election Reserve. That would leave the 2014 general election unfunded, leaving the city scrambling to find $1.2 million for it. › see page A4

out, coal dust can travel a fair distance. I’ve seen it on the exterior of homes in Cloverdale. These homes were more than a kilometre from the rail line, which trains use to haul coal to Roberts Bank. The third group are those who favour the proposal – mostly from the business community and the port itself. The port is under-utilized and needs additional economic activity. Part of that is due to the restrictions on the size of ships that can call there. Additional port jobs would be good-paying ones and would be a welcome boost to the Surrey economy. Others from that side of the argument have concerns about B.C. environmental organizations trying to shut down any controversial exports. This is a very relevant concern. The anti-development forces have been stacked up against oil pipeline proposals, particularly Northern Gateway, and the NDP flip-flop in the provincial election on the Kinder Morgan pipeline is widely assumed to have cost the party a victory. While Metro Vancouver has now voted against the coalexport plan, ultimately it will be up to Port Metro Vancouver to go ahead. The port has heard from the various interest groups and now must decide whether to proceed or not. It won’t be an easy decision. Frank Bucholtz writes Thursdays for the Peace Arch News.

Time running out as spa owner prepares to close doors
Struggling entrepreneur issues gift-card warning Sarah Massah Staff Reporter
A South Surrey entrepreneur is scrambling to advise her customers to redeem outstanding gift cards, as she contemplates closing her doors. West Poirier, owner and founder of The Mom Spa at the Shops at High Street, is searching for a buyer for her fledgling business, and she has sent out emails to customers asking them to redeem any gift cards they may have purchased, as she prepares to either sell her business or shut it down. “I don’t want to be one of those businesses that just closes its doors and puts up a sign for staff and customers. That’s not the right thing to do,” she told Peace Arch News, estimating there are 30-40 gift cards that need to be redeemed.

West Poirier wants to put her children first.
The Mom Spa, which caters to busy mothers by providing free child minding, has been open for more than a year and a half at 2950 King George Blvd. While she has a
growing list of clientele, the mother of two said she is unable to pay her approximately $7,000-a-month lease for the more than 2,000-square-foot retail space. “There came a point when I realized I was in over my head. It’s just too much for me to take on,” she said. “There isn’t enough traffic to sustain the businesses in this complex. It’s not realistic.” Poirier, who has a background in advertising and media, had been working with the previous owners of the High Street complex – Grosvenor – to increase awareness by spearheading a campaign to drive more customers to her spa. In order to help her business grow, Grosvenor allowed her a reduce rated of $3,000 a month for her space. However, with the complex now sold, that offer is no longer available, she said. (A
spokesperson for the new owner would not comment.) Adding to her inability to run the business is her obligation as a single mother to two young children, she said. “I had really created this environment that allowed women to be moms, but the irony of it was that I was so busy doing that, I wasn’t being the best mom to my kids,” she said. “It may not be a great financial decision, but it’s the right one for my kids.” While closing the doors of The Mom Spa seems to be inevitable, Poirier is still holding out hope that a buyer could take over her concept and build upon it. “I really want the chance to sell the business, rather than just closing my doors,” she said. “I feel strongly that the right person is going to do so well in there.”

Charges over school brawl Two women have been charged with assault and charges are being considered against a third after an all-female brawl at a local elementary school. Last Friday, North Ridge Elementary, at 62 Avenue and
135 Street, held its sports day. At about 3:30 p.m., it’s alleged, three women – 39, 34 and 33, and all believed to be related – approached a 32-year-old woman. A disagreement ensued about a traffic incident earlier in June.
The victim in the fight was taken to hospital with injuries to her forehead and face. The 39- and 33-year-old have been charged with assault. They were released with a promise to appear in court.
Council members go the distance › from page A1 Hunt said Tuesday it was a busy and productive year, which showed up in his travel costs. “We’re trying to do a bunch of new and creative things electronically and for electronic government,” he said, noting council members use iPads now. “Simple things like that, but it’s all part of a puzzle in where we’re trying to move this city.” Coun. Bruce Hayne was sec-
ond with expenses, ringing up $30,866. His expenses included several civic trips, including the World e-Governments Organization in Barcelona ($5,733); Creating Climate Wealth in Washington, D.C. ($3,728); and the FCM in Saskatchewan ($3,041). Close behind Hunt and Haynes was Mayor Dianne Watts, who spent $28,724. Most of that was for civic trips, including to Surrey’s sister city in China ($11,407).
That trip cost more than expected because Watts returned early to attend an RCMP funeral. The mayor also attended the FCM conference in Saskatchewan ($2,672) and the Geneva Mayor’s Conference in Switzerland ($2,807). Councillor expenses include: Judy Villeneuve ($17,300), Tom Gill ($13,854), Barinder Rasode ($12,281), Linda Hepner ($11,281), Mary Martin ($10,059) and Barbara Steele ($8,491).
Hunt chooses religious charities › from page A1 “That memo was delivered to members of council on the weekend,” Hunt said. “I heard from no member of council that they had changed their opinion on the basis of that information.”
Hunt plans to donate his council pay to charity, noting collecting money from two taxpayer-funded jobs would be double-dipping. He chose two religious groups – NightShift Street Ministries and Mercy Ministries – saying he
wanted to give to organizations not usually funded by the city. “I thought of doing some of the things the city technically can not do,” Hunt, the pastor with Newton’s Bible Fellowship, said Wednesday.

Frustration builds for jeweller after 2nd break-in commercial breakand-enters are down in South Surrey over the past four weeks – with only eight on record – the two break-ins at
Nick Greenizan Staff Reporter
A second break-in in little more than a month has one South Surrey businessman wondering how he can afford to keep his business operating. At about 4 a.m. Tuesday, Natalia Jewellers was broken into – the locked front doors were smashed – and had merchandise stolen. Store owner John Gulerian said the value of the goods stolen had not yet been tallied, adding that “they took whatever they didn’t take last time.” The South Surrey store, located in Morgan Crossing off Croydon Drive, was also broken into in the early morning hours of May 15. Gulerian said more than $40,000 of jewelry was stolen in the first incident. After the first break-in, Gulerian called for an increased police presence in Morgan Crossing, and the second incident only furthers his claim, he said. He added that, though he was fully insured for both thefts, his insurance rates are now surely to rise.
Natalia Jewellers are disconcerting. “It is extremely frustrating from a police perspective, so I can only imagine how
to see if anything else can be done to reduce crime in the area. “Obviously, we can’t be everywhere all at once, but we owe it to
the owner to engage with them to see if anything can be done to prevent this from happening again,” Paquet said.

Break-in aftermath. “It is very, very frustrating. Always the victim pays, and the bad guys go free,” he said. “It makes you sick to your stomach. “What do I have to do? Maybe I build a fortress. Maybe I have to move my business away, or close it down. It is not a healthy situation.” After the May 15 break-in, Surrey RCMP Cpl. Bert Paquet said police were keeping an eye on the area, through both uniformed and plainclothes patrols. On Tuesday, he echoed that statement, adding that patrols have increased in the area since the targeted April shooting death of Craig Widdifield. Paquet added that while statistics show

Sandpiper seeks to boost capacity Owners of the Sandpiper Pub on White Rock’s waterfront – one of them a city councillor – are looking to nearly double the establishment’s licensed capacity. According to a city staff report, an application to bump the number of patrons allowed at the 15595 Marine Dr. pub from 65 to 115 has been made to the Liquor Control and Licensing Branch. Coun. Bill Lawrence, who won a seat in last fall’s byelection, is co-owner of the pub. He told Peace Arch News in January – following a temporary suspension of the pub’s liquor licence that resulted from being found over-capacity – that an application to change the limit had been made. Following comment from White Rock fire and police officials, city staff are recommending

Stanton notes the will not extend the pub’s hours of operation, but could result in more noise at closing time; and that significant impact on the community is not anticipated.

Clear the air
T
here can be no denying last Friday’s 21-4 vote by Metro Vancouver’s board to oppose a proposed new coal-export terminal in Surrey is the strongest manifestation yet of a groundswell of public opinion against the terminal and the increased coal-train traffic that would result. But one should be cautious of over-emotional arguments and grandstanding by members of organizations that have no real power to affect the outcome. It is notable that Lower Mainland cities are asked to accept something that some U.S. cities are rejecting. And it may well be time, as opponents assert, for the country as a whole to draw the line environmentally and voice resistance to fossil fuels, such as thermal coal. However, by dragging in too many nongermane arguments against this specific plan, opponents run the risk of devaluing legitimate objections, making them all seem spurious by association. Yes, more trains in Crescent Beach and White Rock add noise and limit access to otherwise seemingly idyllic communities. And yes, on a much grander scale, coal-powered energy in China leaves behind a huge carbon footprint, with its pollution felt a continent away in notintangible smoke clouds. But worrying about such hyper-local or excessively broad issues is not the mandate of Port Metro Vancouver as the financially selfsufficient port authority serving this area. Opponents of coal should be wary of a pending health-impact assessment by Fraser Health’s chief medical officer. While this might seem positive, it is a card that can be played only once. If the findings are less than conclusive that coal-carrying trains pose a real risk, it will discredit other public-health concerns related to coal, and they will be all the harder to argue in future. Port Metro Vancouver CEO Robin Silvester has already seized on the threat that the Surrey terminal could be closed down if health concerns are proven. This, he claims, is de facto proof that coal-handling procedures, to this point, have been little cause for concern. In reality, imported coal has been handled in B.C. for decades with far less stringent controls. The coal at the proposed terminal would not be piled in the open, and port, coal industry and union reps remain adamant that coal dust can be suppressed so that it poses no risk. It behooves those who doubt this to offer even more convincing proof, rather than simply blowing smoke by resorting to easily dismissed emotional appeals.

mental well-being, which in turn makes me a better parent. I might be a more attentive parent at these programs as well, a sentiment echoed in a conversation I had with another mom. At StrongStart, she noted, she’s not worried about dirty dishes and unwashed laundry and can devote her attention more fully to her daughter. Now, my impression of this mom is that she’s a great mom all the time. But I get her point. At home there are meals to be made, floors to be swept. Of course, I wouldn’t take Elise if she didn’t look forward to it. She eagerly talks of seeing the educators at StrongStart and SFP (mentioning them often gets us out the door in a more timely fashion) and asks by name if her little friends will be there. She finds joy in dancing during circle time, attempting crafts, molding Play-Doh, and discovering new toys. Pamphlets on community resources are also available at the programs, and the educators themselves are endless sources of information, even if it’s simply in watching how they interact with the children. Semiahmoo Family Place and StrongStart BC have enriched my past year as a parent, and have surely positively impacted Elise’s development, as well. I hope they continue to receive the support from the community and provincial government that they deserve. Kristine Salzmann is a former Black Press reporter.

Money raised, not for needy
A matter of self interest
Editor: Re: Ministry raises ‘won’t cost more,’ June 13. A little over 2½ weeks post election, Premier Christy Clark’s office handed out pay raises to the tune of 18 per cent. Her chief of staff goes from $195,148 to a maximum of $230,000 per year; the new deputy chief of staff, Michele Cadario, a maximum of $195,148, up from $144,000. Fast forward to the seniors who are now going to be charged $25 for the use of wheelchairs in Fraser Health residential care homes (Wheelchair fees slammed, June 11). Further, let us not forget those individuals whose need for conveyance to needy appointments are not being met, with 37,000 requests unfulfilled last year (HandyDart riders feel left behind, June 13). As one NDP MLA John Horgan succinctly put it in your article: “It certainly seems to me that the first day cabinet meets, their priority is not the people of British Columbia, it’s their political pals.” Fran Manary, Surrey
Editor: Re: Anger over plan to take land from ALR, June 11. Surrey Coun. Marvin Hunt – newly elected Surrey-Panorama MLA – defended the developer who wants to take 37 acres out of the ALR in Cloverdale by saying that Pacific Land Group had already “spent about $100,000 on studies.” I wish he had also mentioned how many tens of millions the developer would pocket from buying ALR property at an agricultural price and selling it at market price. Hunt knows the ALR offers future generations food security. He also
Blame spender, not reporter Editor: Re: Media focuses on some MPs, June 13 letters. Letter-writer M. Penner accuses the media of bias in printing MP Russ Hiebert’s extraordinary travel expenses in 2010. For the record, those figures were first released by the government and only made headlines when it became apparent that Hiebert (South Surrey-White Rock-Cloverdale) had the second-highest expenses in the country and the highest in B.C. It was the media, doing its job, who then discovered, among other things, that Hiebert was flying his wife and children first-class to and from Ottawa, all on taxpayers’ dollars. The fault lies not with the media but with Hiebert’s sense of entitlement and lack of judgment. When raising the late Jack Layton’s expenses, Penner failed to take into account Layton was not just an MP but also the leader of his party. Of course his expenses would be higher. Penny Essex, Surrey
knows the developer may help him again at election time. I wonder how long it took him and others on council to choose self interest over what is best for the future of Surrey. Jim McMurtry, Surrey
Blackening coal credibility Editor: Re: Inconvenience of a rail route, June 13 letters. I was impressed with Michael Klaver’s very cannily crafted letter that, if you did not take time to examine it in detail, would probably convince you that coal dust is the worst thing on the planet.
Let me answer his three questions: • What is the safe limit of coal dust in human lungs? I suspect the answer is zero for any type of dust. • Why are coal-train cars not covered? At the speeds they come through our neighbourhood, how can any dust be generated? It also costs money. How “safe” do you want to be? Coal is not a toxic substance. • How many direct jobs will the expansion of coal exports from the Lower Mainland provide? I assume the letter writer is not up for one of these jobs and therefore even if it were 1,000, he would not be satisfied nor find it worth it. My car garners dust by just standing outside. Doesn’t everyone’s? Maybe White Rock is just a dustier area. Ivan Scott, Surrey

Children’s restlessness in public places is expected. It’s the parents’ decisions before and after that are suspect.
Parents make choices for us all Editor: I raised three daughters and was very involved with my grandchildren when they were small. I now spend a morning each week tutoring children in a literacy program, called One to One. I am not a crotchety old lady; I like children and enjoy being around them. In recent days, I have been exposed to very unhappy youngsters. Yesterday, we flew from Chicago to Denver, connecting to Seattle. On both flights, we were seated by children who howled, screamed and yelled throughout. Unfortunately, parents on a plane are not able to do what I used to do if my child was misbehaving in a public place – take them for a walk or to the car and sit until they calm down and are receptive to reason. I did notice, though, none of these parents had brought things along to distract their children. I used to take toys, colouring books, pencils etc. These items were only brought out when we were away from home, which meant they were interesting and novel to the children. One thing I never did was allow my children to disturb others in public. They were taken to a private place. If they still could not settle down, they were taken home. Today, my husband and I went out for breakfast. A young couple with a little girl came in, and we were seated close together. Again, we were subjected to a howling,
yelling, screaming, crying child. Her parents kept saying “use your inside voice.” She, of course, ignored them. Again, these parents brought nothing to distract the child. Why do parents not understand that most children cannot sit quietly in a restaurant for more than a minute? These parents had options: They could have taken her home, or for a walk, taking turns until the food arrived; they could have provided her with things to play with; they could have asked the waitress to bring a fruit cup. Parents like this would likely say that they are exposing their child to eating in restaurants, so they will learn how to behave. I say they are teaching them nothing. Children of this age cannot learn to sit quietly, they have to be entertained. If the entertainment doesn’t work, they have to be removed from the situation. That is how you teach them how to behave. You do not subject a whole restaurant full of people to a bored, cranky, misbehaving two-year-old. I just ate as fast as I could and left. I did not enjoy my breakfast, and I’m willing to bet others felt as I did. I did consider confronting them, but it is just this kind of parent that is more concerned with justifying their right to bring their child to a restaurant than with actually parenting their child while they are there.

City lauded for smoke-alarm strategy Kevin Diakiw Black Press
A recent smoke-alarm strategy implemented in Surrey has garnered global praise. Last week, the City of Surrey received an international award for its approach to fire prevention through a targeted smoke alarm giveaway program that has significantly reduced fires and fire losses in the city. Surrey was awarded a 2013 Community Health and Safety Program Excellence Award by the International City/County Management Association (ICMA),
which represents 9,000 local government managers around the world, for its HomeSafe program. Surrey is the only Canadian city on this year’s recipient list. Launched in 2008, HomeSafe uses local fire and demographic data to target fire hot spots for door-to-door firefighter visits and smoke alarm giveaways. Formal evaluation of its first two years showed a 64-per-cent reduction in the annual rate of fires for HomeSafe houses – approximately 4.4 times greater than the reduction (15 per cent) observed in other high-risk
homes over the same period. The program also cut fire losses in half, increased smoke alarm activations by 169 per cent, and reduced fire size and spread. HomeSafe identifies Surrey neighbourhoods with the greatest fire risk and to date has sent firefighters to more than 40,000 homes to educate residents about fire safety and offer to install a free smoke alarm. The cost-effective program leverages existing resources and community sponsorship, and can be easily adapted by other communities.

…on the Semiahmoo Peninsula
Local history buffs to meet monthly at White Rock Library
Club casts a ‘search light’ on the past Sarah Massah
H
Staff Reporter
istory buffs and aficionados on the Semiahmoo Peninsula have a new forum to relive the past with the White Rock History Club. Formed five months ago by David Cotton and Herb Spencer, the monthly meet-up at White Rock Library aims to fill a hole in the community for those who wish to delve into stories from days gone by with fellow history fans. “Both David and I have had a lifelong interest in history – he professionally and me as a hobby,” Spencer said, noting Cotton taught classics at St. John’s College of the University of Oxford in England for 35 years. “By profession, I’m a physicist, but I regard that as a training, not an education. “I find history as the best laboratory for studying human behaviour. Ethically, we can’t do experiments on humans, but history gives us a kind of search light into different attempts at how humans behave in regards to each other.” Five months ago, after initially meeting at the White Rock ❝I find history as Philosopher’s Café, the best laboratory the two began to for studying human discuss the idea of creating a similar behaviour.❞ forum for history Herb Spencer fans. “We got talking founder about how we never really get into detail within the structure of the Philosophy Café with some of these more interesting historical aspects,” Spencer said. After asking Cotton to review an essay on the history of Conservatism he had written, Spencer said both men agreed that it would be useful to discuss topics, like the one in the essay, in a more open forum with more voices added to the discussion. Adding to the reasons to form a club was the sudden ending of a night class Cotton taught five years ago, which had left interested students without an avenue to pursue further education in history. Once both agreed to form the White Rock History Club, Spencer inquired about spacing at the library and jumped at the last remaining space – the last Monday of each month. Since the idea came to fruition, the duo has hosted three sessions of the club in the library’s meeting room, drawing between 20 to 30 people to discuss topics such as

classical Greek democracy, the history of Conservatism and most recently, hunter and gatherer societies of the past. “They have been very well-received. We want this to be a discussion, not just a lecture series. And it’s open to everyone,
not just those with a professional history background,” Spencer said, noting the hunter and gatherer session was hosted by an anthropologist. “I think we’ve really tapped into something.” The summer will feature speakers
focusing Alaska’s contentious history following its sale to the U.S. from Russia, White Rock’s rail history, as well as Spencer’s wife, Eileen, who will lead a discussion on the history of women in August. “It is sure to be quite provocative,” he laughed.

Crescent Beach #240 plans June 22 event
Celebrating Legion Week Sarah Massah Staff Reporter
The Crescent Beach Legion #240 will be hosting a hoe down and serving up some tasty treats June 22 in honour of Legion Week. Longtime volunteer Henri Wendel said there will be lots of family-friendly fun available all day at the event hosted, starting with the classic car show at 1 p.m. Along with the activities, there will be food and refreshments served throughout the day by
The Ladies’ Auxiliary of Branch #240. “They’ll be flipping burgers and serving hot dogs in the afternoon and in the evening we will have barbecued chicken,” Wendel said, noting all the food will be offered by donation. “They are a big part of our organization. They really keep us going.” The goal of the week is to invite the community to find out more about the work the Legion does, Wendel said, as well as provide an avenue to connect with local veterans.
“We want to get the community to come in and see what we do and hopefully become members, so we can keep this organization going,” he said. “We want to get as many people as possible involved from all over, including Ocean Park and White Rock.” The night will be capped off with a hoe down featuring the music of Off the Whal at 8 p.m. For more information about the Crescent Beach Legion, located at 2643 128 St., call the canteen at 604-535-1043 or the office at 604-535-1080.

Grade 11 pitcher Scott Doucet had his best performance of the season for the White Rock Tritons Sunday, striking out 11 Parksville Royal batters en route to a victory.
White Rock pitcher Scott Doucet is benefitting from an off-season of hard work
‘He gives us a chance to win every time’ Nick Greenizan

Sports Reporter
t has been, without question, an up-and-down season for the White Rock Tritons – they currently sit near the bottom of the BC Premier Baseball League standings, yet have also won six of their last 10 games. But despite the team’s ebbs and flows, one constant has been the play of Scott Doucet, the Grade 11 pitcher coming off his best game of the season Sunday – a complete-game, 11-strikeout victory over the Parksville Royals. And while the strikeout numbers were eye-popping – and a season-best for any Triton pitcher – the performance was not much of a surprise to White Rock head
coach Russ Smithson, who at various times has the numbers to back up such praise. this season has referred to his rookie hurler His seven wins are just one back of league as “spectacular,” “tremendous” and “just leaders Brad Smith (North Shore Twins) automatic.” and Kyle Ross (Langley Blaze), and he’s Of the team’s 11 victories this season, eighth in strikeouts with 52 and among the Doucet has been credited with leaders in earned-run average ❝The guys know all with a 1.62 mark. seven of them. “He gives us a chance to win He also leads in the league in they have to do is every single time he goes out go out there and get complete games, with seven. there,” Smithson said Tuesday. two or three runs.❞ “That really helps me out as “The guys love him because a coach, because it makes it Russ Smithson they know all they have to do easy for me to set my pitching Tritons coach is go out there and get two or rotation (for the week), and it three runs, and it’s probably helps out our bullpen,” Smithson going to be enough to win.” said. “We’ve only got five pitchers, and have Doucet, an Earl Marriott Secondary been calling up junior guys for spot-starts, student who came up through the White so Scott’s been huge for us.” Rock-South Surrey Baseball Association, For his part, Doucet credits some hard

work in the off-season for his success on the mound. Before the season, he’d worked with strength coach – and White Rock bantam AAA head coach – Jordan Broatch, and the program has added bulk to his six-foot-one inch frame. “It’s really helped my fastball – I’ve added about five miles per-hour to it,” said Doucet. “I can hit the mid-eighties now, and last year I was at about 77 or so.” In addition to his heater, Doucet has a curveball and a cutter he can throw for strikes, which keeps hitters off-balance. “I think it’s important to be able to throw all your pitches in any count, so maybe where a batter might be expecting a fastball, › see page A22 YOUR NEXT INFINITI SERVICE

Look who joined the Acura of Langley Winning Team!
Teams will play 58 games in 2013/14
Schedule changes approved by BCHL The British Columbia Hockey League held its 2013 annual general meeting last week in Richmond, with the board of governors agreeing on several on and off-ice changes. The league will move to a 58 game schedule in 2013-14, up two from last year. Each team will play 28 home and away games, plus two at the BCHL Showcase, being held in Chilliwack in September. A playoff structure hasn’t been agreed upon yet. Last season’s format didn’t
sit will with a lot of clubs, particularly those in the Coastal conference. Those teams had to play three playoff series (two bestof-fives and a best-of-seven) to reach the BCHL championship series, while the Interior conference required two bestof-sevens. Teams are being asked to submit their ideas, and a new format will be announced before the BCHL Showcase. The league has made a change regarding its trade deadline media policy. Teams will be allowed to
announce transactions as soon as all players involved have been notified. Last year’s trades, including the one sending Phil Zielonka to Chilliwack, weren’t announced by teams until the following day. An equipment change will see all players using Bauer Supreme Team sticks. The league recently signed an equipment agreement with Bauer. Teams will face escalating fines if their players use anything else. For protective gear such as helmets and padding, teams
Fastball improved › from page A21 you can give him something else,” he said. Smithson also credited Tritons’ pitching coach Brandon Gillis with helping Doucet hone his craft. Doucet, who pitched last season for the U16 Junior Tritons, admits to having some nerves earlier in the year, but he’s gained more confidence as the season went along. In fact, Smithson can pinpoint what he thinks was the turning point – a complete-game performance in the team’s last game of an Arizona exhibition tour in early-spring. “He’d had a couple so-so starts before that, but that game he was great.” His confidence was further boosted earlier
this month, when White Rock beat the Langley Blaze 2-1, handing the first-place club just their sixth loss of the season. In that game, Doucet earned the win, pitching one inning of relief. Making the victory sweeter – for the whole team, not just the Grade 11 pitcher – was the fact that the Blaze roster is full of ex-Tritons. “It wasn’t easy seeing those guys leave, so it was pretty nice to get that win,” Doucet said. Doucet and his fellow pitchers have a busy stretch of the PBL schedule coming up. The team plays Saturday against the Whalley Chiefs, twice Sunday against the Victoria Eagles, and next week has five games in a fourday span beginning Wednesday.

champions from Alberta, and the following day will face off against Quebec, followed by a tilt with Ontario June 30. “We have a good mix of experienced players as well as some young, skillful talent,” said Team BC coach Pat Fleck. “Every player on the field will need to step up and perform for us to be successful.” The National Women’s League finals will also feature an under-20 tournament, and Team BC’s entry into that event also features local talent. Bayside’s Rachel Craig and Meghan Wellis will both suit up for the provincial U20 team. In a release, under-20 coach Steph Murphy called Wellis and Craig “backs who are dynamic and speedy but… strong at the contact point.” “We will look to them to create opportunities for turnovers,” she added.

‘American Dream’ secure on both sides of border
Taking Care ofLOCATION Families One Generation toBANK theFINANCIAL Next SAME TEAM — SAME — PROUD TO BE PART OF NATIONAL FAMILY WEALTH MANAGEMENT WITH OVER 30 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE.
Kolby Solinsky Black Press
Call it Manifest Destiny 2.0, if you want. A re-imagining of the lessons of The Great Gatsby, maybe. Either way, it appears the ideals that formed the stars and stripes have headed north – way north – and landed in the provinces above the States. Reports released by BMO Private Bank (out of Toronto and Chicago) have turned heads on each side of the 49th parallel, with some reporting that the “American Dream” – the idea that individuals can come to the United States and make prosperous lives for themselves – is currently more alive in Canada. The reports say almost half of Canada’s millionaires are immigrants or first-generation Canadians, compared to just onethird of America’s millionaires. “For generations, many have considered Canada to be a place that provides opportunities for those who are willing to move here and contribute to the growth of the country. The findings of this study confirm this long-standing belief,” said Alex Dousmanis-Curtis, senior vice-president and head of BMO Harris Private Banking. “Today’s high-net worth Canadians, whether they were born here or have adopted Canada as their own, prove that hard work and an entrepreneurial spirit can result in prosperity and success.” The reports also say two-thirds of affluent Canadians are self-made and one-third are women (32 per cent), up from 21 per cent in 2010. Forty per cent of those women say they have generated their own wealth, and one-hird manage their own investments (compared to 59 per cent of men). “Today’s women are controlling more and more wealth in Canada, and that number is increasing by eight percentage points annually,” said Dousmanis-Curtis. Of all regions in Canada, the Atlantic region had the highest percentage of self-made millionaires, with 83 per cent. British Columbia had the highest rate of “new” millionaires, with 68 per cent, and the Atlantic had the highest percentage of women millionaires, at 37 per cent. Both Ontario and Alberta had 36 per cent women millionaires. It’s not all second-place for the U.S., however.

The ‘American Dream’ lives on both sides of the U.S./Canada border, according to a recent report from BMO. The report out of Chicago also said that 67 per cent of high-net worth Americans are self-made millionaires, and U.S. millionaires tend to be younger than Canadian millionaires. Twenty-four per cent of American millionaires are reported to be below the age of 40, compared to four per cent in Canada. It also says only three per cent
of Americans attribute their wealth to their inheritance, and more than one-third of the States’s wealthy are women. Twenty-nine per cent of those women attribute their wealth to their spouses. In Arizona, in particular, 58 per cent of wealthy citizens are selfmade, and 40 per cent of them are women. However, 75 per cent are 65 years or older.

The often debated, nearly always controversial Fraser Institute secondary school rankings have been released for the 2011/12 year, and private schools own 18 of the top 20 spots. Vancouver all-girls schools York House and Crofton House tied for first with the report’s only two perfect scores (10.0), and Surrey’s Southridge School ranked third with a score of 9.6. York House is the only school on the list to have a 10.0 rating in the most recent five years. Vancouver’s St. George’s (9.5) came fourth and West Point Grey (9.3) and Little Flower (9.3), both in Vancouver, tied for fifth.
The full list is available on the Fraser Institute’s website – www.fraserinstitute.org Southridge was the only Fraser Valley school to come in the top 10. Delta’s Southpointe and Surrey’s Relevant tied for 11th with scores of 8.7. “Private schools continue to dominate the controversial School Report Card ranking system,” reports the CBC. “The Fraser Institute suggests private schools score better, because they are more accountable to parents. “The institute also found 26 secondary schools across B.C., including 21 public schools, have seen their academic performance improve over the past five years.”

Appia Developments to release second phase at SOLO District
Living among the clouds at Altus Appia Developments’ SOLO District will add another gem to the neighbourhood when it launches sales of its newest phase on June 22. Altus will be the tallest building in Burnaby at the equivalent of 55 storeys, with office space on the first 14 floors and residential from 200 feet up. “The views start from the bottom (residential) floor,” says Appia Sales and Marketing Manager Lisa Murrell. SOLO District (which stands for South Of Lougheed) welcomed Altus with a preview event on June 15 that saw many potential buyers visit the SOLO District Presentation Centre. Something that sets Altus apart are
the choices it offers for three-bedroom units, which is something buyers have been asking for. SOLO District itself is one of the most exciting properties in the Lower Mainland real estate market. It will eventually be comprised of four stunning residential towers and over 1,400 homes. Construction is currently ongoing at the first phase, Stratus, with future phases Cirrus and Aerius to come. The community will also include Burnaby’s first Whole Foods. “There are several other exciting anchor tenants to be announced,” says Murrell. “This is a very, very cool community.”
living or play space. The master ensuite features a huge stand-alone claw-foot tub made for relaxing after a day on the slopes, along with a gorgeous walk-in shower with rain shower head. The kids and even adult guests will enjoy the bunk room that holds four bunk beds and plenty of space to play. A pool table is part of the prize package, furnished by Coast Spas Lifestyles. The furniture and accessories are also part of the home, from Lane Home Furnishings. The winner will also receive appliances from Coast Wholesale Appliances, luxurious outdoor furnishings from American Home & Patio, a $2,500 grocery package from IGA and one year of house cleaning from Mini Maid. One of the most impressive parts of the home is the contemporary glass walk-in wine cellar in the foyer. A glass
of wine from your own private cellar will be the perfect way to end your day on the hill. Faliszewski also notes that there is an indoor-outdoor fireplace in the greatroom that you’ll want to curl up in front of at the end of the day. “The deck (on the lower floor) wraps all the way around the outside of the house,” he says. “You can walk through the main rooms and then into your bedroom.” Tickets for the home can be purchased online, via phone at 604252-3688 or toll-free at 1-877-946-4663 or at the Fair at the PNE itself between Aug. 17 and Sept. 2. The winner will be drawn on Sept. 5. You can preview the home between July 12 and 14, July 21, July 28, and Aug. 4. For more information and to purchase tickets, visit www.pne.ca/ pneprizehome.
‘Perfect for entertaining’
PNE Prize Home an iconic B.C. tradition By Kerry Vital
The PNE Prize Home has been around since 1934 and is an integral part of the annual summer event. Now, the 2013 home is showcasing exactly why everyone loves this lottery. “We’re really excited about this year’s home,” says PNE spokesperson Laura Ballance. “This is the most affordable home lottery in British Columbia and there’s a lot of anticipation around it.” For the second year in a row, the home is being decorated by interior designer Jillian Harris. She has starred on Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, hosted Canada’s Handyman Challenge and is currently co-hosting Love It or List It Vancouver. “Jillian did a fantastic job last year,” Ballance says. “It’s (wonderful) to have her back.” This year’s home is over 3,000 square feet, designed and built by Britco. After someone wins it, it will be relocated to Sun Peaks Resort. “It’s a fun project for us,” says Tom Faliszewski, manager of special projects for Britco. “The Fair at the PNE is an iconic event in Vancouver, and the Prize Home is a historic tradtion synonymous with The Fair.”
The home is built in an open-plan style, with a large greatroom and French doors to the exterior decks. “It’s perfect for entertaining,” Faliszewski says. “It has a very spacious feel to it and feels much larger than it is.” He’s not exaggerating. With its 10-foot ceilings on the main floor and nine-foot ceilings on the upper floor, the home feels incredibly open and airy. Once relocated, the home will be right next door to last year’s PNE Prize Home, also built by Britco. The location is truly one of the best parts of the home, since it will feature stunning views over the ski and snowboard trails, surrounding mountains and valley. “We try to do something different every year,” Faliszewski says. This year, Britco decided to put the master bedroom on the main floor, and include a huge upper deck on the second floor with a hot tub and a covered area that Faliszewski says is almost like a completely separate
“
We’re really excited about this year’s home,” says PNE spokesperson Laura Ballance.

The home was designed by interior designer Jillian Harris again this year, and is spectacular as always. Among the features are a contemporary glass wine cellar, top, an indoor-outdoor fireplace, above with Harris, and a luxurious claw-foot tub in the master bathroom, left.

Before buying compare space & water heating costs When you’re house-hunting, choosing a home with natural gas for space and water heating can save you money. Believe it at fortisbc.com/calculator.
SFU Surrey Campus
*These are approximate savings based on the difference between annual natural gas and electricity costs for space and water heating of a 2,300 square-foot house with average insulation and four occupants in the FortisBC Lower Mainland service area. Calculation compared standard-efficiency natural gas furnace and large storage tank water heater with electric furnace and equivalent water heater and is based on FortisBC natural gas rates as of May 2013 ($9.35/GJ) and electricity rates in the service area identified (Tier 1 and 2: $0.071 and $0.109 per kWh). Actual savings may vary. Savings do not include potential rebates and/or incentives.

Congratulations to the Peace Arch Hospital Auxiliary Society on 65 tremendous years of unprecedented fundraising, tireless volunteering and uncompromising dedication to service in our community of White Rock.

From the first $1,000 cheque given to help build Peace Arch Hospital in 1948 to the opening of the legendary Superfluity Shop in 1950, the Auxiliary has been fundamental in the creation of the incredible hospital that Peace Arch is today. As one of our collaborators in the Partners in Caring Campaign
launched in 2007, the Auxiliary helped us raise $25 million in just four years including a whopping $1 million dedicated to the new MRI machine and $1 million towards our brand new state-of-the-art maternity ward. Over the years, the Auxiliary has donated more than $10 million to Peace Arch Hospital and they’re
still going strong! On behalf of the Peace Arch Hospital and Community Health Foundation and the grateful citizens of White Rock, thank you for more than six decades of hard work, caring, compassion and commitment and here’s to another 65 years of resounding success.

65 years, $11 million raised The hard work of the Peace Arch Hospital Auxiliary has paid off for Peninsula community
O
n Nov. 16, 1948, the very first auxiliary donation was made to the community hospital, in the amount of $1,000. Little did the hardworking volunteers know that, 65 years, later, the group’s legacy of giving would reach close to $11 million. From major fundraising efforts, such as the ever-popular Superfluity Shop and hospital Gift Shop, to smaller endeavours such as bake sales, garage sales, raffles and bridge luncheons, every little bit raised by the Peace Arch Hospital Auxiliary has helped purchase essential hospital equipment, and ensure patients at the hospital are as comfortable as can be. In recent years, the auxiliary has helped with some major big-ticket items at Peace Arch Hospital. From 2006 to 2008, the auxiliary raised and donated $1 million towards the purchase of a Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) machine. This machine is a life-saving tool that helps provide the most reliable early diagnosis available to patients. It’s the only imaging tool that can detect certain life-threatening diseases and infections, particularly those in the spine and brain. Before Peace Arch Hospital purchased its MRI machine in 2009, local patients were forced to travel to Surrey Memorial or Royal Columbian Hospitals to receive an MRI. For an idea of just how needed this important piece of machinery was, in the first 13 months of operation, Peace Arch Hospital carried out 2,268 MRI scans. After working so hard to raise such a large amount, the auxiliary did anything but slow down. From 2009 to 2010, the group raised another remarkable $1 million for the hospital’s Maternity Ward project. This major renovation and expansion has resulted in three times the birthing capacity of the original ward, plus eight new single-family birthing rooms, each equipped with a flat-screen TV, a fridge, a work station, a private bathroom with a tub and shower
Tom and Marylou Kirstein celebrate the opening of Peace Arch Hospital’s new maternity ward in 2011, a project the auxiliary raised and donated $1 million towards; the group also donated $1 million towards a brand new MRI machine, which was purchased in 2009 (below, right); one of the auxiliary’s older projects, the hydrotherapy pool, is enjoyed by residents of the Weatherby and Dr. Al Hogg pavilions.
plus a comfortable sleeping space for partners. The single family rooms are also designed to facilitate all stages of the birthing experience: assessment, labour and delivery and postpartum care, meaning mom and baby do not need to be moved around from room to room. Each room features retractable, stateof-the-art medical equipment that, when not in use, is concealed within the room’s walls and other interior features. From 2002 to 2006, the auxiliary donated more than $2.2 million for a variety of hospital equipment. In 2001, they raised and donated
$55,000 for a hair salon at the hospital, and in 1997, they donated $57,000 for electric beds and stretchers and $220,000 for cardiac monitors. In 1996, the auxiliary helped purchase a 12-wheelchair van with a donation of $96,000, allowing extended care and residential patients the opportunity to get out and about in the community. Other essential equipment and machines that the auxiliary helped to fund in the early ‘90s include an ultrasound machine ($196,000) a nuclear medicine gamma camera ($680,000) and a much-needed mammography unit ($245,000). In 1988, the auxiliary donated more than $300,000 towards a major renovation of the hospital’s intensivecare unit, which helped to provide a more efficient environment for the staff to work in the seven-bed unit. Another project that has had a huge impact on the lives of patients and residents at the hospital is the hydrotherapy pool, for which the auxiliary raised $365,000 between 1983 and 1987. The body-temperature pool is used primarily by residents of the Weatherby and Dr. Al Hogg pavilions, and provides a comfortable place to practice standing, walking or to just relax. The warm water helps with pain control and deep-muscle relaxation and provides patients who are wheelchair bound the chance to go through a range of motion they can’t do on land.

In the first few decades of the auxiliary’s fundraising efforts, the group helped to fund a number of projects, improvements and equipment purchases. Some of these include a modernized X-ray room in 1960, a deep freeze, ice machine, adjustable crutches and chime-signal alarm in 1956 and a furnished doctors’ room with a couch in 1954. As the auxiliary grew in numbers over the past 6 1/2 decades, so has the support the auxiliary group has received from the community at large. From purchasing raffle tickets to attending linen sales, none of the auxiliary’s fundraising success – and the remarkable help the group has provided to the hospital and its patients – would be possible without the support of the White Rock/South Surrey community.

From garage sales to music concerts, golf tournaments and bake sales, the dedicated auxiliary volunteers work year-round to raise money for the hospital. To date, the auxiliary has raised close to $11 million for equipment, projects and patient-comfort efforts. In recent years, the auxiliary has donated a million dollars towards the purchase of a new MRI machine and another million dollars for the hospital’s new, state-of-the-art maternity ward. According to former auxiliary president Marylou Kirstein, the group has also helped with smaller hospital improvements designed to improve the lives of extended-care patients. “We bought a new bus for the extended-care patients, so they can go on outings,” Kirstein explained. “And we also built an entertainment room within the Dr. Al Hogg Pavilion, with a kitchen, eating area and big screen TV.” Auxiliary volunteers also work hard within the hospital on special events aimed at brightening the patients’ days. Each month, parties are thrown for residents in the Hogg Pavilion who are celebrating a birthday. At Christmastime, volunteers buy and wrap presents for each and every single resident to ensure they’re not lonely during the holidays. Through the auxiliary’s arts way program, residents are treated to
monthly entertainment – something that is enjoyed by patients and staff alike. “Fundraising is a major focus for us, because what the hospital needs is new equipment,” Kirstein explained. “But we do so many other things that don’t have an effect on the money necessarily.” When it comes to raising funds, the biggest project for the auxiliary is the ever-popular Superfluity Shop, located at 15163 Prospect Ave. This completely volunteer-run store – known as the Supe Shop – is a treasure trove of housewares, knick-knacks, clothes and other goodies. Another of the auxiliary’s main endeavours is the hospital Gift Shop, which began many years ago as a Comfort Cart and grew into its current location in 1992. The shop carries a wide selection of gift items, snacks, reading materials and crafts, as well as fresh flowers arranged by the auxiliary’s Flower Power group. While one may think that 65 years of hard work and dedication might mean the auxiliary volunteers are ready to slow down, Kirstein said that just isn’t the case, noting the drive to help is as strong as it ever was. “We are getting new members and younger members all the time,” she said. “As time goes on, this is not going to ever stop. People will always be looking to our auxiliary to do something to help.”

10 dynamic groups, one common goal N
o matter how much dedication and drive you have, raising $11 million over 65 years wouldn’t be possible without a sense of organization. The Peace Arch Hospital Auxiliary – split into 10 different sub-groups – is a prime example of how effective a group can be when you team up, work hard and strive for a common goal. Here’s a little extra info on each group and the hard work they do year after year:
in a pot. The group hosts birthday parties every month for patients of residential care at the hospital, and many of the Breakaway members also work at the Superfluity Shop. New members are welcome to join this group, which currently has 20 members. According to group leader Sherron Hogg, “We have fun raising funds.”
Flower Power
AquArius
Comprised of 31 members – including several from the recently disbanded Amigos group – Aquarius celebrated its 43rd anniversary this January. With the increased number of members came increased activity for the Aquarians, who held a new fundraiser this year called the Teddy Bear Toss. Teddy bears donated to the Superfluity Shop were taken to a Surrey Eagles game, sold to fans and then thrown onto the ice when the first Eagles goal was scored. In May, the group hosted its second annual golf tournament at Nico Wynd, which raised more than $7,000 – double the amount raised at the tournament’s first year. At Christmastime, the Aquarius group prepares special care packages for patients in the Dr. Al Hogg Pavilion, decorates a stunning Christmas Tree

and sells Christmas merchandise at the hospital as well as at the Christmas on the Peninsula Festival. The group also holds a year-round penny drive – entitled Change for a Change at Peace Arch Hospital – which includes jars placed around the community. Unique to the Aquarians is the School Tour Program, in which local students ranging in age from pre-school to Grade 2 are taken on a tour of the hospital. And like many of the other auxiliary
groups, Aquarians hosts birthday parties at the hospital and volunteer their time at the Superfluity Shop and Gift Shop. BreAkAwAy
For the past 32 years, members of the Breakaway group have hosted a variety of fundraising events to benefit Peace Arch Hospital. These fundraisers include craft sales, bake sales and garage sales, as well as raffles, including a recent Pot of Gold draw – a one-day raffle for 100 Loonies
CONGRATULATIONS AND THANK YOU to the Peace Arch Hospital Auxiliary for 65 years of supporting Peace Arch Hospital and our community!
Originally formed in 1996, the Flower Power group currently has 12 members. This lively group’s name says it all – its major fundraiser is creating beautiful flower arrangements for the hospital Gift Shop; in the course of a year, the group makes well over 1,000 arrangements. The group also uses its flowerarranging talents to create gifts and centerpieces for special events, such as birthday and Christmas parties for residential patients. Members of this group all have experience with floral design – some have even owned their own shops – and thoroughly enjoy their time spent together in the Auxiliary office working on arrangements while chatting and drinking coffee. Group leader Joyce Poley said the Flower Power members even make a point of spending time together outside of See page B6

Many of the 12 members of Kay Hogg/Goodwill are former staff members or nurses at Peace Arch Hospital, so they understand just how important their hard work is to the hospital and patients. And just this spring the group was proud to present a cheque for a whopping $16,000 to the hospital. Kwatcha
The first meeting of the Kwatcha group took place on Sept. 19, 1972 in the home of Diane Perrie, who is still a member today. Comprised of close to 40 members, the Kwatcha group’s main fundraiser in the community is the popular Linen
Sale. Linens are collected throughout the year – including vintage linens, tray cloths, large table cloths as well as teacups, saucers and small ornaments – and washed and ironed by group volunteers before they are sold at the group’s twice-yearly sales. This fundraiser usually brings in around $15,000 per year for the hospital. For many years, the Kwatcha group has also run the Gift Cart in the longterm care ward and each holiday season, the group provides residential patients with much-cherished Christmas presents. Many members of the Kwatcha group also volunteer in the Superfluity Shop. See page B8

Throughout the year, the Ruth Bruels / Coldicutt group hosts a Pull Tab fundraiser at the hospital, which also includes a draw for a wonderful hamper. They also sell pictures, picture frames and ‘white elephant’ items at a special sale that takes place in October on the hospital’s main floor. On the last Tuesday of every month, the group throws a birthday party for the residents of the Dr. Al Hogg Pavilion’s 1st floor. The residents – generally numbering around 50 – are also treated to a gift, Chinese oranges and tins of butter cookies at Christmas time. Semiahmoo
The Semiahmo group was formed in 1949, and at one point in time had 40 members, though the membership is not as high today. Fundraising initiatives for this group include Mothers Day bake and craft sales, garage sales, Christmas sales and funfilled spaghetti dinner dances and beer festivals. Members help host birthday parties in the Weatherby pavilion and lend a hand with the annual Glades Mothers Day tea event. Group leader Betty Wahl – who has been a member for around 30 years – is also the manager of the hospital Gift Shop. SunSet-ShaSta DaiSieS
This group is the product of a recent amalgamation of two groups – Sunset, first formed in 1957, and the Shasta Daisies, formed in 1999. According to group leader Joni White, the joining of the two groups earlier

this year has helped to revitalize the 30 members, and she describes her group as dynamic and fun. In the past, Sunset has held raffles, craft and bake sales and a very popular Coffee Plus Christmas Bazaar. One of the group’s most popular fundraising projects were the four cookbooks they published – the first in 1978, followed by additional volumes in 1982, 1986 and 1988. The books were so popular that just a few years ago, the group raffled off rare copies of the first and last editions at a bake sale. All the money the Sunset-Shasta Daisies now raise goes towards patient care projects, including the group’s candy basket project and Christmas baking for patients on the hospital’s sixth floor. The group is also involved in a new wing at the hospital – where patients suffer from both mental and physical afflictions – and host special ice cream parties and other fun events.

A ‘super’ place to shop Auxiliary Superfluity Shop a true treasure trove
I
t all began in a little brown cottage by a few dedicated women who wanted to raise some money by selling rummage items. Sixty-five years later, the Superfluity Shop has grown into a Peninsula landmark, helping the Peace Arch Hospital Auxiliary to raise close to $11 million for hospital equipment and patient comfort. The original Supe Shop was located on Vidal Street, in a cottage owned by local doctors T.R. Blades and Al Hogg, lawyer Bruce Fraser and accountant Bob Tait. The items that were donated to shop founders Ruth Bruels and Geraldine Fraser were referred to as “superfluous” – which is how the shop eventually got its name. That first winter, the pipes froze in that little brown cottage, and when the building was deemed too costly to repair, the Shop was moved to Washington Avenue (now

known as Marine Drive) while the cottage was torn down and another building constructed. It would be another 20 years before the shop would relocate to its current location on Prospect Avenue, where the auxiliary had purchased an old tire shop. In 1983, the shop was enlarged to its present size and in 1996, it was completely renovated. Now, as the dedicated group of volunteers who have helped keep the Superfluity Shop thriving celebrate 65 years of giving back, the popular
“treasure trove” is more popular than ever. According to Supe Shop manager Anna Setter, there are around 170 auxiliary members who volunteer their time at the Supe Shop – about 120 per month, accounting for holidays. Most volunteers work a six-hour shift once a week, Setter said, noting that they prefer auxilians to commit to at least three hours per week. While it may not seem like a lot of work running a store like the Supe Shop, Setter said the flow of donations is See page B11

P E A C E A R C H H O S P I TA L A U X I L I A R Y prepare special little tray favours for Valentine’s Day, Halloween and Easter – perhaps a little card, or bag of candy. At Christmastime, Santa Claus pays the hospital a visit and every single resident – patients on the acute-care floor – receives a wrapped gift. Tins of butter cookies, Mandarin oranges and other baked treats are also distributed around the hospital during the holiday season. For the past several years, the auxiliary has also sponsored a unique program for residents called Arts Way. Professional musicians or entertainers are invited to perform for residents each month – from opera singers to a barbershop quartet or a solo pianist – and the program has been well received, Rougeau said. “For our residents who cannot get to the opera or theatre, it’s brought to them.” As anyone who has had to take an unexpected trip to the Emergency Department knows, sometimes a quick visit can turn into an overnight stay. The auxiliary has prepared special overnight bags – containing essential items like a toothbrush and toothpaste, comb, lip balm, etc. – for people who weren’t prepared to stay at the hospital longer than a few hours. The hospital’s smallest patients are also the focus of the auxiliary’s care and attention – every baby born at the hospital is given a beautiful, hand-knit hat, a tradition that has continued for many, many years.
The group also hosts tours throughout the school year for local children, to give them a chance to get familiar with the hospital should they ever have to visit in the future. “It’s an opportunity for children to see the inside of the hospital in a nonthreatening way,” Rougeau said. For children who do unfortunately have to visit the hospital – whether it’s for a blood test or something more serious – auxiliary volunteers have made little finger puppets to be given to each young patient in an effort to cheer them up. “For the staff to be able to give the children a finger puppet, or place a bonnet on a baby’s head, that’s just tremendous,” Rougeau said. “It enables the staff to be able to do their job completely.” And the staff are not forgotten by the auxiliary, either. If there is a special celebration to be had among staff members – a retirement, anniversary or other milestone – the auxiliary hosts Tea for the Heart. Complete with china cups and tea pots and fancy cookies served on Royal Albert trays, the tea is another example of the auxiliary’s many heartfelt gestures for the hospital and its staff. “We are so fortunate,” Rougeau said when asked what the auxiliary means to the hospital. “It helps build such a community spirit. Everyone is working on a common goal to make it as pleasant as possible for the people who have to be here.”

The Game’s Afoot set for Coast Capital Playhouse stage
Whodunnit makes Canadian debut Alex Browne
I
Arts Reporter
t’s a lot easier playing Sherlock Holmes than trying to be him. That’s the crux of the matter in the comedy The Game’s Afoot by Ken Ludwig (Lend Me A Tenor) which makes its Canadian debut July 10-28 at the Coast Capital Playhouse (1532 Johnston Rd.), presented by Peninsula Productions and helmed by artistic director Wendy Bollard. Ludwig’s artistic conceit in this 1930s farce is to plunge actor William Gillette – historically renowned for creating the role of the great detective in a phenomenally long-running stage adaptation of Conan Doyle’s Baker Street milieu – into a baffling reallife mystery. When Gillette invites a number of people associated with his theatrical career to his gadgetheavy mock castle in Connecticut on Christmas Eve (with the secret agenda of solving a crime), it quickly becomes evident that his powers as a detective do not approach those of the mythical Holmes. And therein lies the farce, according to local actor Ben Odberg (The Lion In Winter, Earth
and Sky, Accomplice), who plays Gillette. Though he’s played comedy before – and his quirky, individualistic interpretations make his dramatic work consistently interesting – Odberg admits this is the first time he’s actually played in a farce. “I’m loving it,” he said. “It’s been just a blast. I love all the running back and forth, even though we’re not exactly slamming in and out of doors. It’s a lot of fun.” He’s also relishing the potential for “melodramatic and overdramatic acting” inherent in the piece, he said. Also featured in Bollard’s hand picked cast are David Quast, who plays Felix, Gillette’s “second fiddle,” who also acts the role of Holmes’ nemesis Moriarty in the opening “play within a play,” Lori Tych as sarcastic drama critic Daria; Michelle Collier as a rarity for the era – a female Detective Inspector; Everett Shea and Rebekah McEwen as the ‘juvenile and ingenue’ couple; and Valerie Dearden, who plays “the doddering old mother.” “Everybody thinks she’s not too sharp,” said Odberg. “She’s a very funny character.”
Odberg is the first to acknowledge that Ludwig’s play riffs on certain elements of the life of the real Gillette, rather than attempting to portray him accurately. For instance, in Ludwig’s tale he’s depicted as a stage star in his ’40s. “In 1936, when this is set, the real Gillette would actually have been 80,” he noted. “I think Ludwig wanted to create a murder-mystery and comedy and used whatever
facts that fit that. “The real William Gillette was the first actor who was noted because he brought in realism to the stage. That’s not the William Gillette the audience will be getting in this show.” Odberg said his inspirations in playing Ludwig’s version of Gillette have been suave movie actors of the period, such as Cary Grant and William Powell, “with a little dash of Errol Flynn.” “When I went for the readthrough, I loved the play and I loved the character. He’s charming, debonair and dashing, but at the same time he can be a complete goof – a bit like Cary Grant in Arsenic and Old Lace.” He’s particularly enjoying working with Bollard, who also directed the well-regarded Agnes of God earlier this year and last year’s successful summer production of Agatha Christie’s The Mousetrap. “She’s a really good director with lots of insights and ideas,” he said. “She likes you to explore and experiment, and her ideas are really good – she’s always working on something in the play, getting it up to speed.” He’s also enjoying the reunion
with Tych, a late addition to the cast, who last year played Queen Eleanor to his Henry in The Lion In Winter in the White Rock Players Club’s Theatre B.C. zonewinning production. “She’s wonderful to play off,” he said. “Her part is full of biting wit and she’s really playing that up.” Odberg said while he doesn’t want to spoil any of the twists in the script, the audience should be prepared for a few surprises. The initial conundrum that begins the play ends up being dwarfed by an even bigger mystery, he said. “Like all good mysteries, there has to be a murder,” he noted. “And from there, it all spins out of control.” Although the farcical element is very prominent, there’s a good underlying mystery, with plenty of red herrings thrown in. “I think people will be waiting to see who did it. It’s a gold mine for people who love mysteries – and for people who love comedy.” Performances run Wednesday through Saturday at 8 p.m. with Sunday matinees at 2:30 p.m. For tickets ($23, $18) call 604536-7535, or order online at www. peninsulaproductions.org

The Stella Maris Concert Choir is holding a benefit performance for the local food bank this weekend.
Concert for a good cause Alex Browne Arts Reporter
It’s a concert, it’s a book signing, it’s a chance to enjoy beautiful music on a (hopefully) sunny Sunday at Crescent Beach’s historic Holy Cross Church (12268 Beecher St.). But this Sunday’s (June 23) 3 p.m. performance – in which the Stella Maris Concert Choir will be joined by the choir of All Saints Community Church – is also a benefit for the Sources White Rock-South Surrey Food Bank, with donations of foodstuffs and cash gratefully accepted. “We’re hoping it’s sort of like a Christmas in summertime for them,” said Stella Maris director Trudi Stammer. She said that while the choir, based at South Surrey’s Good Shepherd Church, often contributes to overseas charities, including its support of three foster
children through the Chalice program, “it’s important not to forget our own ‘at home’ community.” While food-bank fundraising often comes to the forefront at Christmastime, the shelves tend to get a very empty look this time of year, Stammer added. “There are still people so much in need.” In addition to the music, one of Stella Maris regular choristers, Dr. Werner Spangehl, will also be signing and selling copies of his book, One Minute Medicine – a holistic guide to health, framed in an entertaining, novel format – with all proceeds going to the food bank. “He’s a wonderful man, with a great tenor voice, who also occasionally plays his viola,” Stammer said. “It’s wonderful to have him participate in this way – it adds to the rainbow of people we have in this choir.”

Joining forces with the choir of the Anglican All Saints, which uses Holy Cross (part of the Star of the Sea Catholic parish) for its Sunday services, seems a natural part of Stella Maris’ ongoing mission of “evangelization through music.” “In this Year of Faith for the Catholic Church, at a time when we have a new Pope and we are emphasizing ecumenicism and Christian brotherhood, we felt that involving All Saints was the right way to go, and Peter Klenner, the pastor of All Saints, was delighted to join us in this venture,” she said. It’s also a good opportunity for Stella Maris to try out new pieces it will take on its next tour, Stammer said, including gospel numbers, spirituals and African songs. “We have a whole bunch of new repertoire – a lot of upbeat, fun stuff,” she added.

Best, worst runs flagged in transit performance review
TransLink eyes underused bus routes Jeff Nagel
A
Black Press
review by TransLink has flagged underperforming bus routes that may be targeted for “service optimization” to wring more efficiency from the transit system. For a couple of years now, transit planners have strategically trimmed hours from some routes at times when buses roll by mostly empty and added more service to routes they think could carry more riders. Beneficiaries have included the 99 B-Line in Vancouver, where a 10 per cent increase in service has been added to reduce overcrowding. And an all-new White Rock-Langley route was also created to meet demand from passengers who couldn’t reasonably get between the two cities on transit. Overall, TransLink says the strategy has helped it increase the number of transit trips taken by 3.4 per cent while the average cost per trip dropped. But while the system has gained, there have been winners and losers. Richmond lost 5.5 per cent of its service hours – a change planners say is due to ongoing right-sizing to reflect the 2010 introduction of the Canada Line. And the northeast sector lost 2.3 per cent of its bus hours. The biggest gains were South of the Fraser (excluding south Delta) where 3.5 per cent more hours were added, the North Shore (up 3.4 per cent) and Vancouver (up 1.9 per cent). According to the review, some of the lowest-performing individual bus routes are in south Delta, where the average cost to carry a passenger is $2.67, the highest in the region and nearly double the Metro average of $1.34. The per passenger cost was $2.13 in Maple Ridge/Pitt Meadows, $1.92 in the Tri-Cities and $1.84 South of Fraser (North DeltaSurrey-Langley-White Rock.) Vancouver had the lowest costs of $1.08 to carry the average passenger.
A new service review from TransLink has targeted Metro Vancouver’s underperforming bus routes for “service optimization.” Most of the 25 poorest-performing suburban bus routes are served with community shuttles, and include two in Ladner, two in Tsawwassen, two in Richmond/Queensborough and one each in Maple Ridge, Pitt Meadows and Lions Bay. The top-performing routes are mainly in Vancouver and Burnaby. According to TransLink planner Peter Klitz, poorly performing routes typically are in lower density areas where residents are more car-dependent and sometimes suffer from circuitous routes or the lack of a strong anchor destination at each end.
There are already plans to make more changes to some of the underperformers in September or December, he said. Should residents in car-dependent areas with underperforming bus routes expect further frequency reductions, making transit an even worse option? Klitz said that could happen in some areas but the best solution is working harder to ensure local land-use planning supports transportation. “We need to organize where we put people and jobs to maximize the effectiveness of the transit network.”

TransLink says its strategy of right-sizing routes to try to serve more riders with the same amount of money has also generated more fare revenue – an increase of $15 million or 3.5 per cent last year. “Our expectation is we will continue to look for opportunities to optimize our service in the coming years,” Klitz said. The province has so far refused Metro Vancouver mayors’ requests for more money so TransLink can expand. But Klitz argued service optimization is a good strategy, whether or not TransLink remains at a funding standstill.

Advocates say CRTC changes give wireless users more control
Cellphone code caps roaming fees, contract length Consumer advocates are applauding a new wireless code of conduct that lets Canadians cancel mobile phone contracts without penalty after two years and sets caps on dataroaming charges. The new code unveiled Monday by federal regulators applies on new contracts for mobile phones and other devices starting Dec. 2. Besides the ability to escape three-year contracts without fees after two years, the new CRTC rules cap data-overage fees at $50 a month and national and international data roaming fees at $100 a month, unless the user explicitly wants to use more. “Canadians may finally now be freed of the worst of cellphone bill shock,” Public Interest Advocacy Centre executive director John Lawford said. He said the code should reduce the mobile device costs of many users.
Individuals and small business users will also be able to have their phones unlocked after

Police seek assault suspect Delta Police seek the public’s assistance to help identify a teenager responsible for a series of sexual assaults in Tsawwassen. In each case, the perpetrator ran up behind female victims and either grabbed their buttocks or bear-hugged them around their waist and breasts, before fleeing on foot. The victims in these incidents range in age from their late teens to early 30s, and police believe all of the assaults were random in nature. The assailant is described as a Caucasian male, 15-18 years old, five-foot-10, with a slim build, short brown hair, hazel eyes and possible acne on his face. He was seen wearing skateboard-type shoes and a hooded sweatshirt. Anyone with information can call 604-946-4411 and refer to tip 13-11497, or Metro Vancouver Crime Stoppers at 1-800-2228477.

More than 100 sentenced, 325 could still be charged
Riot charges stacking up Jeff Nagel Black Press
Sixteen more accused rioters are now charged nearly two years after the night of downtown mayhem that followed the Vancouver Canucks’ 2011 Stanley Cup final loss. A total of 229 people have now been charged with crimes including participating in a riot and 149 of them have pleaded guilty. So far, 104 have been sentenced and 32 recieved jail sentences ranging from 30 days to 20 months, while others have conditional sentences including house arrest. The Crown appealed two sentences seeking stiffer prison terms. Prosecutors wanted the 90-day jail term to be served on weekends increased to six months for Delta rioter Lincoln Kennedy Williams. The B.C. Court of Appeal upheld the original sentence but confirmed imprisonment is appropriate for convicted rioters. “He was one of the ringleaders in vandalizing, overturning, and burning the GMC truck at the ‘live site’ on Georgia Street,” according to the appeal court. While his participation in a “frightening, violent spectacle of wanton destruction” was “shockingly anti-social” behaviour, the

Sixteen more accused rioters are now charged two years later. top court also noted it was out of character and the high school grad confessed to police the next day. A 60-day intermittent jail term was also upheld for Vancouver resident Alexander Keelty Peepre, who co-operated with police after an anonymous tipster fingered him as one of the rioters. Although critics predicted the push for justice against rioters would clog the court system, Crown counsel spokesman Neil MacKenzie said he’s not aware of
any case-flow problems. “There have been a significant number of guilty pleas so there’s been significantly less court time required than if the matters had been set for trial,” he said. Just one case has so far gone to trial, and it lead to a conviction. Nine other trials involving 15 accused are pending. While prosecutors have rejected police-requested charges against 40 accused, they are still considering charge requests against another 325 suspects.

No tie to food in three brain disease cases: FHA Jeff Nagel Black Press
Three suspected Lower Mainland cases of a degenerative brain-wasting disease have nothing to do with mad cow disease or the consumption of beef, say public-health officials. One resident in the Fraser Health region is dead of CreutzfeldtJakob Disease (CJD) and two others who are ill are believed to have it. “I want to be clear there is absolutely no evidence that these three confirmed or probable cases are linked to food consumption,” said Paul Van Buynder, Fraser Health’s chief medicalhealth officer. He said these are cases of “classical” CJD that appear every year, albeit rarely, at a rate of one or two per million. Tests have ruled out the variant form of CJD linked to consumption of beef from cattle infected with mad cow disease (bovine spongiform encephalopathy). “There has never been a home-grown case of variant CJD in Canada so this is not surprising,” Van Buynder said. He said some media and social media reports wrongly referred to the local cases as “human mad cow disease.” About 30 Canadians a year contract the
Natural gas hike OK’d Jeff Nagel Black Press
A jump in natural gas rates in the Lower Mainland means most households using gas will pay about $61 more each year. The B.C. Utilities Commission approved the rate increase by FortisBC, effective July 1. Fortis officials say natural-gas prices have rebounded from low levels in 2012 after increased demand, a colder winter and a slowdown of growth in gas production. Fortis charges no markup on the commodity cost of the gas; it makes a profit only through delivery charges to transmit it. While the commodity cost is going up by $0.936 per gigajoule (GJ), the delivery charge is actually dropping by $0.294/GJ, so the net increase is $0.642. The average home uses about 95 GJ per year.
standard form of CJD. Van Buynder said the three cases are one or two more than might normally be expected here in a year, but still within what’s statistically likely.
“There is no outbreak and I want to reassure residents of the Lower Mainland that there is no risk to the public or to residents in our facilities.” The patients are from

Jail threat for distribution of raw product
Milk men convicted Black Press

SSALES ALES EVENT

Two men found guilty of civil contempt for distributing unpasteurized milk from a Chilliwack farm will go to jail if they do it again, a B.C. Supreme Court justice ruled this month. Michael Schmidt and Gordon Watson were both handed three-month suspended sentences for defying an earlier court order prohibiting the distribution of raw milk from the Prairie Central Road farm. They had argued that because the milk was being offered as a “cosmetic,” and labelled “not for human consumption,” the court order prohibiting the distribution did not apply. However, B.C. Supreme Court Justice Randall Wong said there was little doubt what the two men were up to. Said Wong in his ruling released June 6: “In this case, distributing raw milk as a purported cosmetic product was patent lip service and ruse to distribute raw milk for human consumption.” The case stems from an earlier injunction granted to Fraser Health to shut down a so-called “cow share” program initially run by Alice Jongerden. Called “Home on the Range,” the operation paid its shareholders dividends in the form of raw milk and
raw-milk products. In 2010, Fraser Health sought and received a permanent injunction against Jongerden, arguing she had breached the Public Health Act by packaging raw milk for distribution. Under the Public Health Act, milk that has not been processed by a licenced dairy is considered a health hazard. Despite the injunction, a year later both Schmidt and Watson had assumed operation of the farm and continued distribution of the raw milk. Under a “new business model,” however, the products were labeled cosmetic and given names like “Cleopatra’s Enzymatic Alpine Lotion.” In August 2011, Fraser Health received a warrant to search the property. Nothing was seized, but Fraser Health Authority spokesman Roy Thorpe-Dorward said at the time that photographs of the farm on Prairie Central Road were being reviewed to determine if a permanent court injunction issued earlier against distribution of raw milk was being obeyed by the current farm owner. The two were given a three-month suspended sentence and one-year probation. They were also ordered to pay court costs.
