66 cocaine-filled condoms swallowed, as accused boarded bus for Canada
2½ years for ‘remorseful’ drug mule Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter
Ten months after he was arrested for attempting to smuggle cocaine into Canada, a man who swallowed 66 condoms containing the illicit drug was sentenced to an additional 20 months in custody for the crime. In imposing the penalty on Ricardo Vasquez in Surrey Provincial Court Friday, Judge James Sutherland said he’d heard no evidence to support that Vasquez was anything more than a courier in the operation.
At the same time, he wasn’t convinced Vasquez’s involvement was spontaneous. “There had to have been at least some degree of premeditation on the part of Mr. Vasquez,” Sutherland said. Vasquez – a 36-year-old resident of Mexico who was born in the U.S. – has been in custody since Sept. 7, after border guards at the Pacific Highway crossing in South Surrey became suspicious of information provided by Vasquez, who was a passenger on a northbound bus.
A first-time visitor to Canada, he initially told border guards he was travelling from Chicago, Ill. to Whistler to see a friend, but he had no return ticket; then he said he was travelling from Mexico via Chicago. He was also found to be carrying two cellphones, one of which bore a text message that appeared to point to a plan to import drugs, the court heard. During monitoring in a “drug loo” at Vancouver airport, Vasquez admitted to swallowing “about 20 pellets,” then began excret-
ing them about 30 minutes later. The balance of the 66 pellets – a total 725 grams of cocaine with an estimated street value of just over $25,000 – were collected at Richmond Hospital over the next two days. In sentencing submissions, federal prosecutor James Whiting had asked Sutherland to impose a four-year sentence on Vasquez. Defence counsel Evi dos Santos asked either for time served or for additional time to be in the form of a conditional sentence. › see page 2

Hip to be square
Boaz Joseph photo
The Diamond Country Dancers proved that it’s hip to be square when they took over the stage at the Pioneer Fair Saturday at the Historic Stewart Farm in South Surrey. The enthusiastic group of volunteers – some of whom have been dancing with the group since 1996 – can be seen at a number of events around the province, performing both square and round dances.
Civil libertarians want more detail on how police investigated a Canada Day bomb plot to see if officers came too close to entrapping the accused Surrey couple. John Stewart Nuttall and Amanda Marie Korody were arrested July 1 on terrorism-related charges after the planting of disabled pressurecooker bombs outside the legislature in Victoria. Doubts have grown about their ability to carry out an act of terrorism, as more details spilled out about their impoverished life inside a North Surrey basement suite, where they lived on social assistance without a vehicle and got methadone treatment for drug addiction. Police say they became “self-radicalized” to support the al-Qaida ideology and posed a serious threat to kill or maim people. RCMP officers announcing the arrests said that since February a “variety of complex investigative and covert techniques” were used to monitor and control the pair to prevent public harm. › see page 2

Smuggler lucky, defence says › from page 1 Sutherland said Friday that he considered three key issues in sentencing: motive, which Vasquez said was to repay a debt incurred as a result of medical bills for his young son; if his immigration status in Canada, or lack of, should affect the penalty; and if Vasquez should be given “enhanced” credit for the time he has already spent in custody. Sutherland said he did not consider immigration consequences relevant, given that Vasquez was never admitted to Canada, and that he was “not satisfied” that Vasquez had proven he was motivated by a desperate need to help his infant son. While Sutherland acknowledged Vasquez was “profoundly
remorseful” for his actions, he said the gravity of the offence cannot be downplayed. “Cocaine is not indigenous to Canada. Consequently, it can only enter Canada through importers like Mr. Vasquez,” he said. “Mr. Vasquez, I have no doubt that this has been very difficult for you. You will get through it, and then you can move on.” Dos Santos said outside court his client was “lucky” to receive the sentence, noting another client who tried to smuggle crystal meth into the U.S. was handed a five-year term. Vasquez roomed with that individual in jail, he said. Given Vasquez’s lack of status in Canada, he will likely serve two-thirds of the remaining sentence, then be deported, his lawyer said.
‘Too soon to say entrapment’ › from page 1 Micheal Vonn, policy director for the BC Civil Liberties Association, said the concern is that undercover officers may have interacted with the suspects to essentially advance the plot and provide assistance. Much depends on the police assessment of the level of risk the two suspects posed to public safety in the early stages of the five-month investigation. Vonn said an apparently urgent, genuine public danger would “arguably justify” undercover officers becoming part of the plot to derail it. But, she said, the calculation should be very different if police judged they were monitoring two suspects who – regardless of what they may have been saying – wouldn’t or couldn’t make and plant bombs unaided. “If we did have a case where police actively facilitated the planting of what were supposed to be explosive devices, then we are going to have to ask ourselves questions about fundamental fairness, the appropriateness of this and whether our legal system has a place for this,” Vonn said. “Because then you’re creat-
White Rock
ing a crime that otherwise would not exist.” Rob Gordon, director of SFU’s school of criminology, said police would have had to weigh the risk to public safety against their aim of allowing the Surrey suspects to generate enough evidence to get a conviction. “Here, I think they got the balance right,” he said, noting not enough is yet public to draw conclusions as to whether officers’ actions came anywhere near entrapment. “When you look at the two individuals… you can’t help but be under-impressed, and that makes me wonder about whether they really knew what they were doing.” But Gordon said he’d be surprised if police actively encouraged or assisted the suspects. Vonn and Gordon were critical of how the media accessed the couple’s suite – a privacy violation that may have court ramifications. “I think that could backfire,” Gordon said. “Defence could use it to argue that it creates bias in the minds of a jury.” RCMP Sgt. Peter Thiessen declined to comment further on investigation tactics, saying details will come clear in court.

Surrey Matters replaces party that underperformed in 2011 civic election
New party materializes as SCC dissolves Kevin Diakiw Black Press
Surrey’s opposing party is folding, making room for Surrey Matters Voters Association – a new party with a new approach. The former party, known as the Surrey Civic Coalition (SCC), was shut out of Surrey city council in the 2011 civic election and secured only one seat on the Surrey Board of Education. On June 26, the SCC general membership voted to dissolve. Sunday, SCC president Gary Robinson officially announced the Surrey Matters Voters Association, saying its founding annual general meeting at Newton Library July 2
attracted nearly 30 residents. SCC had been around since 2002, after taking over for the Surrey Civic Electors (SCE), which had some success on city council in the early 1990s. That was when the party held four seats on council, including the centre seat under then-mayor Bob Bose. Bose lost his mayor’s seat to Doug McCallum in 1996, and six years later, SCE reinvented itself as SCC. Bose was back on as a city councillor under that party. Now, after the poor showing at the polls a year-and-a-half ago (Bose lost his seat), the party feels it’s time for reinvention yet again. Robinson, who was elected Surrey Matters president, said it’s time for a new vibrant party

Food-cart experiment attracts four waterfront businesses to take part
Restaurateurs take bite of city bid Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter
An invitation to enhance the experience of visitors to White Rock’s waterfront by way of food carts caught the interest of a dozen Marine Drive restaurateurs. And at least three of the four businesses that have taken all the steps – including obtaining a permit from Fraser Health – to actually operate the carts on the promenade are optimistic it is a venture that will catch on. “We thought we’d try it,” said Charlie Montgomery, owner of Montgomery’s Cottage Lunch on East Beach. “It could prove out to be OK. “On the (July 1) holiday, when all the other booths were going on… it just took off.” The idea to introduce the food carts stemmed from a suggestion made during last year’s community forum on the waterfront. Putting it into play required amendments to the city’s official community plan to allow commerce south of Marine Drive. Those amendments were finalized in early May, and interested operators had until the end of that month to apply for one of 16 available sites. They can offer food, beverage and/or ice cream service through Oct. 15. Montgomery said the success of his cart – which offers such items as potato chips,

freezies, water and pop – is dependent on the weather, and he plans to have it up and running on the weekends, “when the sun comes out.” Jimmy Flynn’s Celtic Snug is also running a cart, offering wraps and drinks. Cook Mitchell Halley said beverages have been the biggest seller so far, and that the venture is “doing really well.” Lucy Muir of Look Watts Cooking said the experience for her has also been positive. Set-up costs were reasonable, and while sales haven’t been brisk, there have been plenty of opportunities to network and let more people know about the business she runs with her mother, Liz Watts. “Everybody thought it was a good idea,” she
said. Keeping the competition at bay was another motivation for getting involved, Muir said. “I can’t have somebody else standing 20 feet from my shop selling sandwiches.” Paul Stanton, White Rock’s director of development services, said a lack of electricity for the sites limited what operators could offer. “We explained to them… we’re not set up for power and we don’t have a budget to put power in, so make the best of it you can this year, we’ll see how it goes,” Stanton said. “We also advised some of them, ‘don’t start spending a whole lot of money on equipment until you see whether it’s going to generate any revenue for you.’” Stanton said the city has fielded only one complaint about the food carts, from a restaurateur worried the carts would take business away from the waterfront establishments and generate more costs for the city. Questions were briefly raised when a cart bearing a Washington State licence plate set up shop on the promenade. Stanton said it was quickly determined that the owner, who purchased the cart in the U.S., simply hadn’t changed its registration. If the pilot project is deemed a success this summer, the city will look into the possibility of making the cart sites more permanent, including adding power, he said.
Surrey Coun. Marvin Hunt has decided he will donate his pay back to the city. After being elected as BC Liberal MLA for Surrey-Panorama in May, Hunt is stuck doing double-duty with the city and province – at least until January – to avoid a $600,000 civic byelection. Marvin Hunt Hunt had MLA/councillor previously said he would donate his council salary to either NightShift Street Ministries in North Surrey or Mercy Ministries in South Surrey – religious organizations that are not usually funded by the city. However, when asked what he would do if taxpayers weren’t happy with his choice for donation, he said giving the money back to the city was also an option. And that’s what he’s decided to do. “It’s going to be looping back to the city,” Hunt said Thursday. So far, Hunt said he’s finding doing both jobs manageable. Monday’s city council meeting was the first he’s missed. “This is where, the month of July, that I said was going to be a challenge,” Hunt said. Hunt is paid about $60,000 a year to be a councillor, so will return his pay from now until January – roughly $30,000 – to the city. By law, he can do both jobs, however, he cannot miss 60 consecutive days or four council meetings in a row or his council seat would be rendered vacant.

Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter
South Surrey residents say houses left sitting empty for months on end are driving up crime – and the rat population – in their neighbourhood. Fil Bettencourt and Al Davies say two houses sitting empty in the 15600-block of 28 Avenue and another in the 2900-block of 160 Street are regularly targeted by scavengers and other miscreants. “The abandoned houses, you can hear more than you can see,” said Davies. “It’s nightly. They’re around here all the time… looking for opportunities.” Davies said his car has been broken into twice, activity he’s sure is connected to the structures. A neighbour of the house on 160 Street said she has phoned
Stabbing charges A South Surrey man is facing charges of aggravated assault in connection with the stabbing two men outside of a Marine Drive pub in May. Police say a 37-yearold and a 28-year-old – both Surrey residents – suffered abdominal wounds in the May 5 incident, which occurred just after 2 a.m. in the 15500-block of Marine Drive. It is unclear what sparked the altercation. “The accused came out and started yelling at the two (victims) that he was going to stab them,” Const. Janelle Shoihet said. One man was arrested at a nearby hotel. Curtis Alexander Bunkowksi (aka Curtis Alexander Bunkowski), 22, is due back in court on July 16. – Tracy Holmes
police to report concerns at least five times since October, and has been to the mayor’s office at least three times. “This has been going on for… eight months,” said the woman, who asked to not be identified. “For me, it’s a crime factor,” she said. “I just feel very unsafe. It attracts that element.” Bettencourt said Thursday the rats and crime are only getting worse. But while the neighbours say the police and city need to do more to address the problem, officials from both groups say steps are being taken. Jas Rehal, Surrey’s manager of bylaw enforcement, said last month that officers, in collaboration with police, continue to monitor the two houses on 28
Avenue. “We’re trying to get a handle on it,” he said. The owner has applied to demolish the structures, he said, and “we’ll work with them to expediate the process.” Such owners are expected to ensure their properties are kept secure and tidy, he said. Cpl. Bert Paquet confirmed the South Surrey RCMP Crime Reduction Unit is also aware of the concerns. Identified as “hotspots,” police have bumped up patrols in the area, but have not noted a significant increase in crime as a result of the two sites, he said. Paquet encouraged residents who are seeing suspicious activity or individuals to always alert police.

Security boost sure to come
N
ews of a terrorism plot involving the B.C. legislature and pressure cookers filled with nails has sent shock waves through the province, and nowhere is the news hitting with more impact than in Victoria, where the iconic parliament buildings draw tourists year round. A Canada Day event there July 1 (the event the terrorists were targeting) attracted about 40,000 people to the legislative lawns. B.C. residents may say “it can’t happen here,” but it can and it does. People in Boston likely felt much the same way about the Boston Marathon, before the bombing incident this year. Whether inspired by religion, politics or just a penchant for mischief and mayhem, acts of terror are on the rise in North America. Since the infamous acts of Sept. 11, 2001, a host of plots have been uncovered and several attacks, such as the Boston one, have actually been carried out. Three people were killed and 170 injured in Boston. This has led to a dramatic increase in security at the borders and airports, in particular, but also at large public events such as the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics. The original budget for security at the Olympics was projected at $175 million. The actual cost was $900 million. Events such as Canada Day celebrations have not been seen as likely targets for acts of terror, but they do attract large crowds. The Canada Day event in Cloverdale – the main Surrey event – routinely attracts as many as 100,000 people. A similar event in downtown Vancouver event is also a large one. Security has usually been pretty straightforward at such events. But it seems likely it will have to be boosted in the future, whether to ensure that wannabe terrorists have no chance to get near an event, or drunken partiers are barred from the grounds. Such events – no matter their size or scale – often have limited points of entry, security and searches of backpacks, purses and the like. But oftentimes, even that is not enough. On principles of personal privacy, we may not want more security – more security cameras, more people searching through our bags and personal items – but certainly it is becoming more and more necessary, in order to keep all citizens safe.

The line will open up more mining and hydro possibilities. The cost overrun traces back mainly to the shortage of high-skill labour such as geotechnical engineering that the remote region already faces. And this is before natural gas pipelines and LNG plants gear up. Bennett takes over from the last sheriff, Rich Coleman, who put BC Hydro through the wringer in 2011. Coleman soon abandoned his idea of putting off the Ruskin and John Hart upgrades (again) to keep rates low through the election, and saw the BC Utilities Commission jack up the rate increase to seven per cent to help slow the ballooning debt. What’s ahead for rates? The utility is looking for 32 per cent in the next three years, says energy lawyer David Austin. He calculates that only 2.5 per cent is attributable to increased private power costs. Among other things, BC Hydro needs regional emergency centres capable of functioning after a Japan-sized quake, plus expansion. Bennett came clean on another reason for rate increases – the government’s increasing dependence on taking a “dividend” as BC Hydro’s lone “shareholder.” The newly updated budget tells us this annual “dividend” is past $500 million and rising fast: $545 million this year, $611 million next year and $684 million the year after.

TransLink aims to meet demand Editor: Re: Left stranded in our wheelchairs, June 27 letters. I think anyone – including myself – who reads about letter-writer Richard Morrison’s experiences using HandyDart and wheelchair taxis can sympathize. That is a very unfortunate situation and we are working to make appropriate service available for all our customers. TransLink strives to find ways to serve the transportation needs of people with disabilities while also operating efficiently and within our means, as identified in the provincial audit of TransLink and the Regional Transportation Commissioner’s Efficiency Review. We are working hard to make the best use of existing resources and deliver as many trips as possible. Using taxis for some HandyDart trips is one example, and is a practice already used successfully by many other North American cities. By moving 10,000 service hours – less than two per cent – to taxis, we expect to deliver 7,000 more trips to our HandyDart customers. Under this pilot, those who are able to make a trip by taxi on select routes will have that service, thereby freeing up trips for others whose needs are best met by HandyDart vehicles. As it is a pilot, we are monitoring this closely. TransLink recognizes that demand for transportation services – for both conventional and custom transit – is growing. The people who live in this region and the officials who they elect to represent them are discussing how best to meet that challenge. Doug Kelsey, TransLink CEO
ER experience a gamble Editor: Over the past month or so, I have had the opportunity to experience the workings and efficiencies of three of the Lower Mainland’s emergency departments – Surrey Memorial, Delta and Peace Arch in White Rock. Since these visits, I have talked to several people who have all had visits to one of these hospitals, their experiences run from wonderful to a nightmare. All the emergency departments had instances of both. The staff at all these hospitals, without exception, were professional, kind, hardworking and dedicated. However, for my wife and I, both in our mid-70s, the experience was tiring, frustrating and dehumanizing. Having a wife in pain with what turned out to be a broken collarbone, having to sit in a major emergency ward for seven hours waiting to get an X-ray – then being told it might be more than an hour for results – is just not acceptable. Even more so when an a frail elderly woman next to you advises she has been waiting two hours for results, and had been there over nine hours! It amazed us when the senior
nurse on duty at one department, in a very stern tone, scolded us for leaving after only one hour and 45 minutes. She indicated to us that was a very reasonable time to wait. What she didn’t seem to take into consideration was one of us was in real pain. We had been told the wait would be at the very least another two hours. We went home to bed. The next morning, we went to another ER and described the pain. Within minutes I was in a bed, had heart monitors plugged in all over my body and had an X-ray and a CT scan – all within two hours. Having had such wildly varying experiences, it makes one wonder why one department gives excellent care while another appears to be slightly less than perfect. More to the point – is there an answer to this serious health
problem? When any of these ERs are busy, it appears there are never enough doctors or nurses on duty. There are never enough beds. At some of these hospitals the comfort of the chairs – for those who often must wait many hours, in real discomfort – is substandard, to say the least. A little comfort when sick or injured is important. The pay parking at the hospitals, in my opinion, is a disgrace. And the enthusiasm of the ticket givers is poetry in action. At Peace Arch, I received a $80 ticket because I had, by mistake, put an out-of datehandicap sign on my window. Having vultures prey upon people worried about loved ones is disgusting, unacceptable and must be removed from B.C. hospitals. It appears the obvious solution to the situation is money. Be it a small
user-pay amount or whatever, it boils down to money. I understand we have the MRIs, CT scans, ultrasound machines, etc.; we just do not fund the personnel to run them full-time, thus the ridiculous wait times. Larry W. Bennett, Delta

Letter-writer Steven Faraher-Amidon and others talk coal at Port Metro Vancouver’s annual general meeting in June.
Darker days ahead for Peninsula
Editor: Re: Dust-up over American coal trains, June 25 letters. Many thanks to letter-writer Terry Garvey for sharing his first-hand experience of how coal is transported, and for helping us see through the corporate whitewash about their ability to contain the coal dust. One of the reasons my wife and I moved to White Rock was that over the 25 years we lived in Ladner, we began to notice more and more black dust on window sills, outdoor plants and furniture, etc. as coal exports increased from the Roberts Bank port. Our home was 10 km away from the port and five km away from the trains. Imagine how the dust will travel from an additional 800 trains per year, the wind so often coming off the water here on the Peninsula. If the coal trains can’t be stopped, the constant cleanup of our homes and additional health services required to respond to respiratory problems and food contamination may unfortunately create more than 50 jobs. Larry Colero, White Rock n Re: Blackening coal credibility, June 20 letters. I have a suggestion for letter-writer Ivan Scott. He should get on his best white Sunday shirt, take a healthy dollop of coal dust and smear it on one side of the front of his shirt. Then take a healthy dollop of the dust his car garnered and smear it on the other side. Then wash the shirt in the normal cycle. Then he should try to imagine what that black tarry crap left on the tar dust side looks like in people’s lungs. Bruce McIntosh, White Rock
BNSF ‘an exemplary citizen’ Re: Wishful thinking, June 18 letters. Firstly, thank you, letter-writer Ian Sutor for suggesting I give my head a shake concerning my comment that we’re lucky BNSF allows pedestrian access to beaches. I took his advice, and this is what fell out:
The facts are clear. BNSF owns the foreshore adjacent to all its rail line through White Rock and much of South Surrey. They own quite a bit of the other side, too. Our MLA, Gordon Hogg, was quoted in the Oct. 22, 2010 Peace Arch News referring to his days on council: “The only contentious issue… was that we were spending a lot of money on developing parking lots and the promenade on what was someone else’s property.” BNSF property that is. Hogg was further quoted that the railway was an “exemplary citizen”. I think so, too. They allow us access to the beach across their property. Back to coal. Westshore Terminals has been shipping Powder River Basin coal for years and years and years. Because the U.S. west coast environmental lobby has been successful in electing left-thinking Democrats, does this mean we Canadians have to stop doing business? As for the global-warming argument, any student knows we’ve been coming out of an ice age for 10,000 years. Alex Barrie, Surrey
Not all coal created equal Readers need to keep in mind a couple of facts as they consider this coal-train issue. 1) All the new coal would be U.S. thermal coal, cheaper and dirtier than the metallurgical coal we now ship from Roberts Bank. Reducing or stopping this coal from being shipped from any new Fraser Surrey Docks terminal will have no impact on the 33 million tonnes of coal we now ship from Roberts Bank. 2) Metallurgical coal – for making steel – is needed by the world. So far there is no replacement for this coal. American thermal coal, not so much. With global warming occurring, and us approaching the amount of CO2 we can sustain, if we do have to produce coal, it must be metallurgical and not the dirtier, wasteful thermal coal, from which B.C. would get little in return and coming with a heavy environmental cost.

Commissionaire attacked in Surrey
Parking officer severely beaten Kevin Diakiw Black Press
James Dans liked his job and planned to continue it as long as possible. The 51-year-old started working as a Commissionaire in parking enforcement with the City of Surrey in 2008. But because of a punk with an apparent grudge against parking-enforcement officers, Dans’ career may come to an abrupt end. It was on June 21, at about 9:30 p.m., when Dans was contacted by Concord Security, a firm doing work for the City of Surrey, about a car parked too close to a driveway in the 10200-block of 168 Street. There was a ceremony being held by Fleetwood Park Secondary School grads at nearby Pacific Academy auditorium at the time. Dans found the vehicle and began writing a ticket. A man walked up beside him and asked him why he was giving him a ticket, and Dans told him why. (Police have since

determined the vehicle is not connected to the attacker). “He said, ‘you can’t give me a ticket, it’s a graduation,’” Dans recalled. The man pushed him to the ground and began kicking him in the head.
“He knocked me out cold,” Dans said in an interview Thursday. When he came to, he walked across the street and called his wife from his car. Next thing he remembered was waking up in hospital at about 3 a.m. with about five or six stitches in his head. “I’ve had headaches ever since… I’ve never had headaches like this before,” Dans said. Five days after the attack, he went to the hospital fearing he suffered a stroke. The hospital told him his symptoms were from the concussion suffered during the attack. As a result, he suffers from tunnel vision. He describes his attacker as an Indo-Canadian male in his late teens to early 20s, wearing khaki pants, a light-brown pinstripe shirt and pointytoed shoes. “He was really well dressed,” Dans said. Police are not sure whether
the attacker was associated with the nearby graduation ceremony. Dans is mystified as to why the man would have attacked him. “I’d like to know why he wanted to kill me over a $30 parking ticket,” Dans said. “It’s insane.” Returning to work may be a challenge. “I like my job, but after this one, I’m not too sure,” Dans said. “I’m going to have a hard time dealing with people.” Police are anxious to find Dans’ attacker. “This is an isolated incident, however, it is nonetheless a despicable act on a resident from our community who was just doing his job,” said Surrey RCMP Cpl. Bert Paquet. Anyone with further information is asked to contact the Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502 or, to stay anonymous, call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222TIPS and quote file #201378793.

Investigation continues into White Rock Canada Day blaze
‘Suspicious pieces’ to fire Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter
Fire investigators looking into a late-night Canada Day blaze in White Rock have noted some “suspicious pieces” to the puzzle. But the city’s fire chief stopped short of concluding that the flames snuffed out at a Goggs Avenue house July 1 were intentionally lit. “We’ve ruled out a number of pieces, but we don’t have it down to an exact cause,” Chief Phil Lemire said Tuesday (July 2). “We have a couple possibilities
we’re looking at.” Fire crews were called to the 15400-block of Goggs Avenue around 10:30 p.m. July 1, after neighbours spotted trouble in the recently vacated building. They arrived to find a fire burning in a cluttered room on the ground level of the two-storey house. “It was quite full of material,” Lemire said, noting the mess contributed to the danger firefighters faced at the scene. “The extreme amount of materials in the house, in that room,

They were basically in a blackout condition in a room full of stuff.” The fire damage was confined to the one room, however, the entire house suffered smoke damage, Lemire said. The house had apparently been unoccupied for about a week prior to the blaze, and police say its residents had recently been evicted. Results of the fire investigation were not available by Peace Arch News’ press deadline.

TransLink urged to keep free transit trips
Groups appeal for homeless Jeff Nagel Black Press
TransLink is being urged to find a way to ensure homeless people continue to get free use of the transit system for certain trips after the new Compass smart card and fare gates are launched this fall. Advocacy groups across Metro Vancouver have long distributed single-use transit tickets to ensure homeless clients can get transportation to a shelter when needed, or to key appointments, such as for medical care and job interviews. Money to buy those FareSaver tickets comes from the provincial government via B.C. Housing. But Vancouver Coun. Geoff Meggs wants TransLink to ensure some replacement system is in place once fare gates take effect and old ticket types are phased out. “It will be a lot harder to get on SkyTrain and the Canada Line with fare gates,” he said. “People are going to need some kind of card to get through the gate.” Meggs said homeless people may simply be able to board a bus without paying or showing any ticket – as many do already – but he argues they shouldn’t have to endure being treated as fare evaders. “This is about replacing an existing service,” Meggs stressed.
Guilty plea for guard

Sedrick Dang, 26, was accused of accepting bribes to deliver things like a screwdriver, steroids and a cellphone to prisoners between March 2011 and November 2012. In Surrey Provincial Court last week, the Burnaby man pleaded guilty to two of four charges – accepting a bribe as an officer and breach of trust by a public officer. – with files from CBC

Advocates urge TransLink to keep free fare for homeless. “These are specific trips paid for by the province for reasons determined valid by a service provider.” Meggs hasn’t proposed giving the homeless free transit passes, although he said he’s willing to separately consider the merits of that as well, noting transit fares are a major obstacle for homeless people trying to look for work. He said transit is a way to level the playing field across income groups. But Meggs has heard from plenty of critics angry with any talk of transit subsidies or free rides for some. “It’s getting tangled up in the fare evasion issue and the discomfort some people feel in providing any assistance to the homeless,” he said. TransLink spokesperson Jiana Ling said talks are underway with community partners to find a
solution that keeps transit accessible to vulnerable people, such as the homeless. “We’re still in talks about how to approach this,” Ling said, adding TransLink is committed to treating customers “with dignity and respect.” Under the new system, passengers will tap Compass cards against readers at each end of a transit trip and their account will be debited accordingly. Ling said passengers who don’t have a regular Compass card will be able to use cash to buy a cardboard version of the card valid for a single day only on buses and at stations. Also up in the air is a provincially subsidized transit program for 86,000 low-income seniors and people on disability assistance – they can buy an annual transit pass good anywhere in B.C. for $45 a year. Ling said TransLink hopes to accommodate that program through the Compass card system, but offered no specifics. Canadian Taxpayers Federation B.C. director Jordan Bateman said it’s fair to continue to provide free trips for the homeless to reach shelter, health and job appointments. “Obviously, you want to be sensitive to lower-income people and be as helpful as possible,” he said.

El became a BC notary in 1978 and opened up his office in downtown Cloverdale. After a hectic 17 year career in the finance business, which took him away from his young family having to travel to many offices across Western Canada (before fax, cell phones, etc.) El found Cloverdale to be ideal as it reminded him of the small town of Strathmore, Alberta, where he spent his childhood. For 35 years, El has provided the community with legal services for real estate transfers, preparing mortgages (previous mortgage lending experience proved very helpful), wills, power of attorney, and a host of other legal services. El’s strong involvement in the affairs of Cloverdale made him well known. Some of his community involvement included, Secretary-Clerk of the Surrey Dyking District, Director of Zion Park Manor, Kinsmen Club; a member of the Royal Canadian Legion, Ducks Unlimited (conservation), Director of the BC Notary Society, and more. El is a people person and his love of his work and the community make it difficult to quit. El works alongside his daughter, Trish Fedewich and her husband, Norman Witt, who are also BC notaries.

Staff Reporter
he last surviving daughter of one of Surrey’s pioneering families passed away June 28 at the age of 91. Georgina Stuart Strachan was the youngest daughter of Ben and Emelia Stevenson (daughter of Isaac Johnston, an early settler on what is now Johnston Road) who settled the land in Ocean Park in 1886. The longtime Peninsula resident is remembered by her five children, 12 grandchildren and 17 greatgrandchildren as a caring and generous matriarch who always had room for one more around the dinner table. “Growing up, our refrigerator belonged to everyone on the block,” laughed son, Ralph White. “If she found out anyone was without, she would invite them. There was always enough to go around.”
Strachan was born in New Westminster in 1922, the youngest of eight children. Prior to living in New Westminster, and later in Vancouver, the Stevenson family lived in Ocean Park, where Strachan’s father, Ben, had purchased a huge parcel of land bordered by the waterfront and Stevenson Road (128 Street), from and North Bluff Road (16 Avenue) to Sunnyside Road (24 Avenue). In 1918, Stevenson, who also had connections to the history of the nearby Elgin and Mud Bay communities, donated land for the first school in Ocean Park and was instrumental in securing tunnel access to the beach, under the Great Northern tracks, according to the City of Surrey website. Following the family’s move to Vancouver in order to be closer to schooling for the children, Strachan graduated from Prince of Wales High School and married
her husband Herbert Emerson White, eventually moving back to Ocean Park in 1966 to live on a plot of land her father had set aside for her. The two were married for more than 40 years, until White passed in 1986. Soon after, Strachan and her family spearheaded a movement to return a strip of land that remained at the foot of 18 Avenue back to the public. With the rest of Stevenson’s property broken up or sold, the extra parcel of real estate on Ocean Park Road was all that remained, with new homeowners on either side attempting to absorb it. However, the family pushed for it to remain open as a road allowance, Ralph said. “We held a huge demonstration. When Surrey got going, (Ben) had designated a certain amount of land as road ends, but people who lived there didn’t want that. They made an application to make that
land their own,” he explained. Following a court ruling in the family’s favour, the land was returned to the city on the condition it remain public. The small road allowance was then renamed as Ben Stevenson View Park, overlooking the waters of Boundary Bay to Point Roberts and the Gulf Islands. “Mom was very much a part of that. There was no way they were going to take her father’s land for nothing. There are hardly any places like that left,” Ralph said. “We certainly love the area.” Strachan later married Bill Stewart, who died suddenly in 1988, and then Dr. J. George Strachan, who predeceased her in 1996. For a number of years, Strachan worked at the Bank of Montreal in White Rock where, White noted, she had numerous friends.

and exceptionally proud of her waterfront home in the Ocean Park area, which was sold last year when she was admitted to Dr. Al Hogg Pavilion due to her declining health. While Georgina was the last of Stevenson’s children, Ralph said portions of his former plot are still in the family. “I live in Ocean Park on a piece of property that used to be part of my grandfather’s farm,” he said. “This area was subdivided by my mother and two aunts, and I bought one, my cousin bought one and my sister bought one. “We’re all kind of here, living on his land.” A memorial service for Strachan will be held July 10 at 1:00 p.m., at St. Mark’s Anglican Church, 12953 20th Avenue. In lieu of flowers donations to The British Columbia Lung Association would be appreciated.

Library levy to save city $60,600 Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter
When it comes to funding its library services, the City of White Rock may have booked a win. “This is finally in our favour,” Mayor Wayne Baldwin told council attendees last month, of proposed amendments to the Fraser Valley Regional Library funding formula that would reduce how much the city pays for the services by more than $60,000 per year. According to a report by White Rock’s director of financial services, the elimination of a “library usage adjustment” and a change in how shared-services costs are allocated have the greatest impact for White Rock. “These shared costs were previously allocated to municipal libraries based
on circulation and/or library spaces, and are now proposed to be allocated on a per capital basis,” Kurylo’s report states. “As a result… the annual FVRL levies for some member municipalities are anticipated to increase and for others are expected to decrease. In White Rock’s case, the overall impact is projected to be a $60,600 reduction in the annual levy” – from 825,988 to $765,398, a difference of 7.34 per cent. White Rock council voted unanimously (with Coun. Larry Robinson absent) June 24 to support the amendments. If approved – member councils have until July 17 to submit resolutions to the FVRL indicating their position – the changes will be phased in over a two-year period.

South Surrey teen raises funds, donates hair to make wigs for patients
‘Simple acts’ to cut cancer out Sarah Massah Staff Reporter
A South Surrey teen is hoping to lead by example after donating 10 inches of her hair – and raising funds – to help cancer victims. While Jaclyn Tatay, 17, had been thinking about donating her hair for some time, following a series of events – including the breast cancer diagnosis of her best friend’s mother and a cancer scare involving her own mother – the Earl Marriott Secondary grad decided there was no point in waiting any longer. On June 27, Tatay went and sheared off 10 inches of her hair in order to ensure there would be enough to make a wig for those who have lost hair as a result of chemotherapy. “With my mom’s recent cancer scare, it got real to me and I realized what it is like for other families. So I just thought if there was any way for me to help, I might

Adjusting swing easier than ever
G
olfers rejoice! Those dreaded slices or hooks could become a thing of the distant past thanks to adjustable clubs and drivers. In addition to helping improve accuracy, adjustable clubs also lighten the load in your golf bag. With a few twists of a wrench or even turning the shaft of the driver itself, golfers can adjust the face angle, loft and lie angle of the driver to hit the ball farther and straighter. They can then make small adjustments to create the right loft and improve distance without having to purchase a new club or visit a club fitter. Many club manufacturers now offer adjustable drivers and other clubs.
According to an informal poll on Golf.com, 34 per cent of the 2,337 respondents owned an adjustable driver by the end of 2011. The ability to upgrade shafts has also become popular as golfers respond to what the pros are doing. Although golfers can now put adjustments into their own hands, it is still adviseable to get a professional fitting regardless of which clubs are chosen. A certified club fitter can help a person sort through the huge range of club and driver options available and make recommendations based on various factors, including the type of golf ball they’re using.

ily’s property near 103 Avenue and 145A Street. Charges were considered, but no evidence was found to support the theory that Lucy was a victim of crime. Lucy, of First Nations descent, was born in Alaska in 1935. In 1954, she married Marvin in Blaine, Wash. and settled in Surrey a year to two later. The couple had two children, daughter Linda and son Daniel, who died in his teens. At the time of her disappearance, she was five-foot-five, 110 pounds, with a dark complexion and dark brown hair. She
would be 77 now. According to police, Marvin was listed as first mate on a tugboat but was unemployed in 1961. He later remarried and raised his children. He died in the late 1990s. Investigators hope that by retelling Lucy’s story, someone may recall information. For Evans, finding out what happened to her mother, after all these years, would provide answers to a mystery that has haunted her since childhood. “I would like to know before I die,” she says. “She’s got grandkids and great-grandkids.”

July 9 - 13, 2013 ARIES
LIBRA
Someone you just met can help you to make the most of a difficult situation, Aries. It shouldn't take too long for you to get back on track and into a groove.
Libra, you have strong opinions, so don't be afraid to have your voice heard. People will be receptive to your views, even if they border on the philosophical.
TAURUS
SCORPIO
Taurus, make sure you assert yourself more in an important meeting this week. Asserting yourself can help you get ahead at work. Otherwise, you may get overlooked.
Scorpio, focus makes it easier for you to resist temptation, but this week you may find that it's very difficult to maintain your focus. Do your best to stay focused.
GEMINI
SAGITTARIUS
Gemini, take the initiative regarding a big project this week. Others might want to take the lead, but trust your instincts and take the bull by the horns..
Sagittarius, don't worry about a nagging suspicion that you will receive bad news this week. Keep yourself busy so you aren't sit around worrying unnecessarily.
CANCER
CAPRICORN
Cancer, take time this week to finish all of those little projects that have fallen by the wayside. Take advantage of some free time to catch up and clear your slate.
These “water smart” bags slowly drip water into the soil over an eight hour period – the perfect pace to get the most water to the tree’s roots. Watering like this once or twice a week is better for the tree and saves you time.
Someone new to your social situation has you feeling a little suspicious, Capricorn. You're not sure if you can trust him or her just yet. New facts will come to light this week
LEO
AQUARIUS
Negotiations will be especially rewarding this week, Leo. Your suggestions are readily accepted, and you do not have to persuade others much at all.
Aquarius, take some time this week to further hone some unique abilities that set you apart from others in your group of friends. You will soon be able to showcase your skills.
VIRGO
Get involved!
PISCES
Virgo, nothing is free in life, so don't get fooled when someone promises that you will get something without having to work for it. It's in your best interest to keep working hard.
We’ll deliver a watering bag to you for free – all we ask is that you use it for your street tree once per week this summer. After summer ends, hang on to it for next year, or pass it on to someone else with a young tree.
Pisces, there are a lot of curious people around who want to learn about what you're doing. Let them in to get some external perspective.

Eating Out(doors)!
S
ummer time is all about eating outside— games, picnics, camping, concerts or just dinner on the patio. But eating outdoors does not have to be as nutritionally compromised as “eating out” but it can be just as easy and delicious. So this weekend, whether you’re watching the Hill Climb, the Criterium or the Road Race, here are some foods to pack for the whole family to enjoy. On a hot day, there’s nothing more refreshing than fresh fruits and veggies and the local crops are in full swing. If you have time in advance, prep skewers for easy hand-held munching. Otherwise, simply rinse fruit and fill a re-usable container. Raspberries and cherries are a favourite in July for eating by the handful and are packed with fibre to fill you up, water for hydration and colourful antioxidants. Certain veggies don’t stand up to the heat, so leave your lettuce-based salads at home. Instead make mayo-less coleslaws—think Salvadorean or
Asian style. Chopped cucumbers are delicious paired with fresh herbs like dill or mint and a simple vinaigrette. Both cucumbers and cabbage are cooling foods according to traditional Chinese and Ayurvedic principles, so they are sure to balance your body in the hot weather. Meat can be dangerous if left in the heat too long and fish is definitely a no-no, so opt for plant-based proteins to sustain you at your outdoor event. Hummus is an easy option for dipping crackers or veggies and can be flavoured with lemon or mint for a summery twist. Tofu can be cubed, marinated and roasted to make a simple snack or skewer it with veggies for more of a meal. Nuts and seeds are easily turned into a trail mix or slow roasted with lemon for a snack packed with fibre, healthy fats and protein. Just be sure to keep the salt to a minimum or you can add to the dehydration already possible from the heat. Despite all the fluids in the fruits and veggies, don’t
forget to pack 1 to 2 litres of water per person—or to mix it up, make homemade iced tea with green tea and a bit of honey for a burst of energy without jitteriness. You can use it to get you off your feet and cheering for those hard-working cyclists!

Inspired by Pinterest to redo her kitchen nook, UsedEverywhere’s Lacey Sheardown works at the vintage table set she got on UsedVictoria.com
Following the flooding in Alberta, the site encouraged Albertans to donate items for flood victims on its four sites in the province: usedcalgary.com, usedreddeer. com, usedcentralalberta.com and usededmonton.com In Vancouver, you might find the community co-ordinator at the farmer’s markets or, most recently, at the Vancouver Children’s Festival where UsedEverywhere was a major sponsor. They are also involved with projects such as a car- and booster-seat recycling

Long before she became the marketing director for usedeverywhere.com, Lacey Sheardown was a borderline-obsessive user of the classifieds site. “I was always on there — I was an avid user,” she says with a laugh. Sheardown’s Victoria home is filled with furniture and other unique items she bought or found for free on UsedEverywhere. “So when I got this job, my friends were like, ‘Yeah, that makes sense.’” But what drew Sheardown to the site was more than the satisfaction of treasure hunting. Unlike other classifieds sites out there, this was a place where she could look for a new coffee table without stumbling across an ad for a casual NSA encounter at the local park. “We’re actually family friendly,” she says. Across more than 80 cities and towns – including usedsurrey.com – the site has a real, live monitoring team, checking ads every hour of the day, ensuring quality content and dependable transactions. “Your kid can surf our site and you can be comfortable with it.” UsedEverywhere.com is now owned by Black Press, parent company of Peace Arch News. It has as many unique visitors in Canada as Craig’s List and is the number one free classified site in Ottawa, Victoria and P.E.I. The site includes an informative blog and Facebook page. As much as the site is about buying and selling, it’s also about connecting people, building community, on- and off-line, with a flesh-and-blood UsedEverywhere community co-ordinator working locally.
program that took place last month (they recycled 83 expired seats) as well as a new initiative in the next month to work with local business, allowing them to advertise on the site and connect with buyers. Their community co-ordinators even look for personal opportunities to help locally through the Angels program. Last year, for instance, they helped a Vancouver woman undergoing chemotherapy for breast cancer by finding breast milk for her baby. Sheardown says community involvement is a big component of the company’s DNA. “It’s a social responsibility,” she says. “Our site is about reusing, reducing and recycling, and so being a part of the community and helping in other ways is connected that.” Even though the site has been embraced mostly by professional mothers like Sheardown, she says it appeals to other demographics as well. “My husband is on his site, on his phone, hitting refresh every 10 minutes,” she says, laughing. “We think he has a bit of a problem.” So what’s the coolest thing she got on UsedEverywhere? It’s a large stereo cabinet that was brought over from Europe after the Second World War. “They had the clothes on their backs, 20 bucks and this giant, enormous stereo cabinet. And we got it for free!” It’s the bonus of hearing a story or meeting new people that Sheardown appreciates about using the site. “There’s always history with the item or you meet an interesting person,” she says. “Hearing those stories is great.”

…on the Semiahmoo Peninsula
Alanna and Brianne It looks like a breakthrough summer for White Rock teen musicians Alanna and Brianne Finn-Morris. The 15 year-old identical twins, recently chosen winners of the second annual Diamond in the Rock Youth Talent Search, have a new accolade – they are among some 132 acts who made it to the semifinals of the Nashville-based Unsigned Music Competition, out of 9,000 entries from more than 100 countries. The contest is a showcase for talent as yet unsigned to any recording label. The country duo, who are also prolific composers of their own material, won their spot with a cover version of Philip Phillips Home in which both sung accompanied by Brianne on guitar. Frequently seen busking on White Rock beach and at Granville Island during the summer months, they can also be seen locally at the upcoming Ocean Park Day Aug. 17. (It was previously announced that they would entertain at this month’s three-day Village Summer Festival in Ocean Park, but instead Ministry of Misfits Band will perform before the July 19 outdoor movie screening at the Safeway parking lot, 16 Avenue and 128 St.). The twins will be heading back to Nashville this August for a third visit, during which they have several performances booked, as well as the opportunity to work with a songwriting mentor through the Nashville Songwriters Association.
Youth film school Are you a local teen interested in the current “democratization” of filmmaking, enabled by digital technology? Would-be auteurs and technicians will have a chance to work with current independent digital standard equipment and professional film techniques to make a short film at a five-day Peninsula-based Youth Film School for ages 14 to 18, running Aug. 19-23. For information on registering, call 604-356-0981, or email info@ YouthFilmSchool.com
The Game’s Afoot Mystery fans who enjoyed last year’s Peninsula Productions summer presentation, The Mousetrap, will be happy to hear ‘The Game’s Afoot’ at last. The show, by popular American playwright Ken Ludwig, will have its Canadian premiere Wednesday (July 10) at the Coast Capital Playhouse, 1532 Johnston Rd. There’s a high fun quotient to the murder mystery/comedy, helmed by Peninsula Productions’ artistic director Wendy Bollard. Set in 1936, The Game’s Afoot revolves around the stabbing death of a guest staying at the
more senior jazz fans (reservations recommended, 604-530-5297).

Organizers of White Rock’s International Artist Day (IAD) Festival – planned for Oct. 21 to Oct. 27 – are issuing an immediate call for volunteers. IAD founder Chris MacClure, and hostess Jane Baldwin, wife of White Rock Mayor Wayne Baldwin, say it’s an ideal opportunity to “make new friends and experience the art world firsthand.” The festival is still calling for artists for the visual arts exhibit component which will run Oct. 25-27 at White Rock Community Centre. That section of the festival will be a partial juried show for which artists are invited to submit up to three 12x12-inch gallery wrapped, ready-to-hang canvas pieces. Submissions will be accepted up to Aug. 15, with a delivery deadline of Sept. 15 for pieces that are chosen. Works can be anything from paintings to mixed media, provided they meet the size constraints, and organizers are prepared to entertain sculpture and photography as well, provided the work can be kept to the same scale and price point (submitting artists in these media should email organizers full details of their work). Submitting artists should email info@tourismwhiterock.com For volunteer opportunities, call 604-536-3049, visit www. internationalartistday.com or email info@internationalartistday. com

Track pair headed off to World Youth Championships
On their marks Nick Greenizan
I
Sports Reporter
t’s been a busy summer so far for members of Ocean Athletics track and field club, and for some, it shows no signs of slowing down. On the weekend, a pair of Ocean Athletics athletes – Jake Hanna and Chelsea Ribiero – left for Ukraine, where they’ll compete at the World Youth Track and Field Championships from July 8-12. In his age group, Hanna is ranked second in Canada in the 400-m and third in the 400-m hurdles, while Ribiero is ranked No. 1 in the 2,000-m steeplechase. Going up against such stiff competition, Ocean Athletics head coach Maureen de St. Croix – who describes the event as “the Olympics for 16 and 17 year olds,” – was unsure how the pair would do, but was optimistic they’d perform well. “It’s tough to (predict) what will happen, because they’re young people, and you don’t know where they stand in the world rankings or anything like that,” she explained. “But I do know that they’re both great competitors, and it’s going to be a great, great event for them.” Hanna and Ribiero are the second and third Ocean Athletics athletes to compete at the World Youth Championships – Deon Clifford is the other, having placed seventh in the steeplechase in 2011. Elsewhere in the club, Kathryn van Ryswyk – fresh off a pole-vault gold medal at the BC High School Track and Field Championships last month – was selected recently to compete with Team BC at both the Canadian Junior Track and Field Championships (Sainte Therese, Que., July 12-14) and the Canada Games (Sherbrooke, Que., Aug. 2-17). Van Ryswyk, an Earl Marriott Secondary grad, is the province’s top-ranked pole vaulter for her age. She won’t be headed to the Canadian

Clifford will compete in the 5,000-m and the 3,000-m steeplechase, while Noel will run the 1,500-m. Closer to home, the club hosted the B.C. Junior Development Pentathlon June 22 at
South Surrey Athletic Park. At the event – in which athletes competed in high jump, 60-m hurdles, shotput, long jump and a 600-m run – Ocean Atheletics’ Niki Duchesne was among the winners. The South Surrey athlete won gold in the 11-year-old girls pentathlon, with a total of 2,174 points – 94 points higher
than second-place finisher Marin Lenz of Chilliwack. Duchesne – who has only been competing in track and field for two years – won the shotput, with a throw of 9.11-m, and hurdles, and was 10th in the high jump, and third in both the 600-m and the long jump. Last weekend, she was at Burnaby’s Swangard Stadium, competing in the Trevor Craven Memorial Meet, and this weekend will be in Nanaimo for Junior Development Provincial Championships. Other locals to make it to the podium include Nicholas Pavlovic, 9, who finished second overall in his age division – along the way, winning the long jump, and taking silver in the hurdles and bronze in the high jump and 600-m. In the 11-year-old boys competition, Ocean Athletics’ Christopher Gan and Brendan Luccock placed second and third overall, respectively, while Evan Ellison won bronze in the 12-year-old boys pentathlon. In the 14-year-old boys division, Dominic Luccock was second overall, while teammate Connor Sinclair was third and Joel Della Siega was second among three competitors in the boys 15-year-old category. The one-day event was capped by a men’s 1,500-m run, which was won by Ocean Athletics’ Clifford, who clocked a time of three minutes, 55.98 seconds, which was 1.08 seconds quicker than Nathan Wadhwani of the Golden Ears Track Club.
Popular cycling series comes into city Friday
BC Superweek gets set to roll into White Rock
File photo
The Tour de White Rock criterium is one of BC Superweek’s highlights.
Some of the world’s top cyclists have descended upon Lower Mainland streets, as BC Superweek kicked off Friday with the Tour de Delta – the first of nine races scheduled for the week. The weeklong cycling series continues today (Tuesday) in Vancouver with the UBC Grand Prix, followed by the popular Gastown Grand Prix Wednesday and the Giro di Burnaby Thursday evening. The week wraps up in White Rock, from Friday to Sunday, with a three-race schedule. On Friday, the action begins at 6 p.m. with the Just Giver For Parkinsons Amateur Hill Climb, which
gives amateur cyclists an opportunity to test their skills – and endurance – by pedaling up Buena Vista Avenue, from Oxford Street to just past Martin. Following the all-comers climb, the Tour riders will give it a go at 7 p.m. in what is one of the most spectator-friendly events of the year. On Saturday, the criterium hits the streets of uptown White Rock, in which cyclists zip around a short, crowded, one-kilometre course that includes Johnston Road, Five Corners and White Rock Elementary. The first criterium race, for men’s category 3 and 4 riders, is set for 4 p.m., while the women’s pro and
men’s pro events follow. The Tour de White Rock will wrap up Sunday with the main event – the Peace Arch News Road Race, which will begin at 9 a.m. down on Marine Drive. The race – 130 km for men, and 80 km for women – will see hundreds of riders traverse the grueling course, which is chock full of long climbs and great scenery. After the final race, two cyclists – one male, one female – with the best overall performance in all three events combined will be crowned the omnium champion.

Jamie Oleksiew shoots career-best 66 en route to provincial championship
South Surrey golfer claims B.C. junior title
BC Golf Association photo
Jamie Oleksiew won a B.C. junior golf title Friday.
South Surrey golfer Jamie Oleksiew may have stumbled ever-so-slightly down the stretch at B.C. Junior Girls Golf Championships last week, but still did enough to hold off a hard-charging Alix Kong for the title. Oleksiew, an 18-year-old Southridge School grad who just wrapped her first season golfing at the University of Colorado, shot a three-over-par 74 at Langley’s Belmont Golf Course Friday, but still beat Wong for the championship by two strokes; she had an eight-stroke lead heading into the final round, but triple-bogeyed the 18th hole. In Thursday’s penultimate round, she fired a career-best 66 to put some

elbows, or they may take over the entire body, even becoming a medical emergency. More than just a skin disease, psoriasis is the most commonly seen autoimmune disease in the western world and is associated with a wide variety of other health issues, including arthritis, diabetes, heart disease, and depression. Psoriasis is truly a systemic problem stemming from imbalances deep within the body. Proper management of psoriasis is best achieved using medicines that work from the inside out, such is the way with Chinese herbal medicine. For at least 2000 years Chinese medicine doctors, specializing in dermatology, have been using herbal medicines, drunk both as a tea and applied directly to the skin, to successfully treat complicated skin disorders like psoriasis. Modern research confirms that Chinese herbal medicine is both safe and effective for the treatment of psoriasis, and is a major

Colton Cook set to return to German soccer league this month
Euro experience a boon to keeper Sarah Massah Staff Reporter
After 4½ months in Germany last year, South Surrey soccer player Colton Cook came home with a new outlook on life and a little extra baggage. About 25 pounds worth to be exact. “They fed me a lot there. I ended up gaining 25 pounds,” Cook told Peace Arch News last week. While the extra weight was one aspect of the transformation he underwent after staying in Stätzling, Germany – a small town 60 km outside of Munich – while he played for the SC Stätzling U17 soccer team, it barely scratched the surface of how much his life changed in a few short months. The 17-year-old Elgin Park Secondary student had played with both Peace Arch and Delta associations in the past, and prior to his trip to Germany, had played the last two years with the Vancouver Fusion FC of the BC Soccer Premier League. Through connections with his coach, the goalkeeper was brought to the attention of SC Stätzling, who then offered him a chance to participate in a 10-day training camp in Germany. Following the camp, he was one of two players

It’s going to be a lot different,” he said. “I’ll be moving up a league and I’ll be staying in a sports residence with other athletes. “Before I was visiting relatives who lived nearby, but this will be really isolated. I’ll only be focusing on soccer.” With the new opportunity, there are some sacrifices, Cook said, noting it was a bit of a shock when he realized he would not be graduating with this friends, instead finishing up his high school career with online half-way across the globe. “But it’s worth it. It’s my dream. Hopefully in a couple of years I will be up there with the first team,” he said. “My original goal a couple of years ago was to play university soccer, then this opportunity came up. I never really thought I would be playing in Europe. “I look at it now and it’s like, OK, this is where I belong. Then I look at all the top goalies of my age in Germany and realize I’m not that far off.”
Peninsula NHL pair on the move A pair of Peninsula National Hockey Leaguers are on the move this month, after not receiving contract offers from their former teams. Last week, in advance of the NHL’s free-agent period which began Friday, forward Colton Gillies, 24, was cut loose by the Columbus Blue Jackets, while defenceman Colten Tuebert was not re-signed by the Edmonton Oilers. Gillies – a former first-round pick of the Minnesota Wild – played 27 games for the Blue Jackets last season, tallying two points. He joined Columbus midway through the 2011/12 season after being waived by the Wild. “Thank you everyone for your support, it’s all good. Best shape of my life right now and excited to see what happens,” Gillies, a six-foot-four leftwinger, wrote from his Twitter account July 2. The 23-year-old Teubert, like Gillies, is a former first-round draft pick – he was chosen 13th overall by the L.A. Kings in 2007 and later traded to Edmonton for Dustin Penner. He spent the 2012/13 season with the Oiler’s American Hockey League affiliate, playing 62 games with the Oklahoma City Barons. He also played 11 games in the AHL playoffs. Teubert has 24 games of NHL experience, all coming during the 2011/12 season. – Nick Greenizan
