BNSF launches trestle replacement, awaiting access rights to Semiahmoo First Nation land

Mayor warns of potential rail disaster Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

BNSF is gearing up to replace the aging rail bridge that spans the Little Campbell River in South Surrey. All that’s needed to get the ball rolling, railway officials say, is for Semiahmoo First Nation to grant permission to access the site. “Our plans are to replace it, we would like to replace it this year,” BNSF spokesperson Gus Melonas said Wednesday. “However,

we are working with the First Nations to arrange access rights to the property. “We have to build a road into the site, so there’s agreement issues that have to be finalized with the First Nations, and we’re working on this. We respect the process and are working through it.” Semiahmoo band councillor Joanne Charles did not return Peace Arch News’ call requesting comment. Concerns have been heard for years that

the bridge – originally constructed in 1921, with a new span built 20 years later – is becoming unsafe. White Rock Mayor Wayne Baldwin added his voice to the issue Thursday, in a letter emailed to Transport Canada. Citing the recent train tragedy in LacMégantic, Que., Baldwin writes that he has “considerable concern” with the structure’s deteriorated condition. › see page 4

Anita Lewis victim

A White Rock woman died Sunday night after being struck by a passenger train on East Beach. Anita Lewis, 42, and her husband, Mike Grahame, were jogging across the tracks at the pedestrian crossing nearest

Semiahmoo Park, in the 15600-block of Marine Drive, at 9:45 p.m. Grahame crossed the tracks ahead of his wife. When he realized Lewis was not behind him, he circled back to the tracks to find her, White Rock RCMP told Peace Arch News. The fatality was witnessed by off-duty

emergency responders who attempted to revive Lewis at the scene. Lewis worked as a mortgage broker at Dreyer Group Mortgage in Morgan Creek. She is remembered by loved ones as “a loving mother, adoring wife, sister, daughter, a special friend to all.” › see page 4

A young man killed by police in Crescent Beach two years ago was warned several times to drop his weapon before shots rang out, a jury tasked to determine the facts heard Monday. A witness testifying at the inquest into the death of Brendon Samuel Beddow told coroner Margaret Janzen he heard police give the order “eight to 10” times, followed by four shots. “He said, ‘Brendon, drop your gun. We will shoot you… put the gun down,’” Eric Benetti, who had been working nearby, recalled of the officer’s words that afternoon. Police were dispatched to the 3000block of McBride Avenue around 2 p.m. March 23, 2011, after a woman called 911 to report a domestic disturbance. Peace Arch News reported at the time that officers who arrived at a Spanish-style home moments later were confronted by a man, and shots were exchanged. An earlier investigation by Vancouver Police Department cleared the officers involved in Beddow’s death of any criminal wrongdoing. › see page 2

Witnesses describe shooting › from page 1 Monday, as Beddow’s mother listened, a woman identified only as Beddow’s girlfriend testified that the 23-year-old had showed up uninvited at the house where she was staying and became violent with her. “Choking, kicking, pushing,” the woman said. “From what I remember, Brendon said he was going to kill me and then kill himself.” Asked by inquest counsel Rodrick MacKenzie if she had seen a gun, the woman replied, “he always had guns.” Over the course of her testimony, she confirmed that both she and Beddow were under the influence Brendon Beddow of drugs at the time; that killed by police Beddow was known to use cocaine, heroin, crack and other drugs; that Beddow owed people a lot of money; and that she knew of two previous suicide attempts by Beddow. The woman – who answered many questions with one word, and often paused before doing so – told the inquest she locked Beddow out following the threat, but that instead of leaving, he went around to the back of the house and used a chair to smash through heavy glass doors to get back in. At that point, she ran next door – where Benetti and fellow carpenter Kris Elvevoll were working – and hid upstairs. Shortly after, she heard “yelling, swearing, gunshots.” Benetti said the woman’s arrival was the second time she had been on the neighbour’s property that day, and that he had seen Beddow push her during a verbal altercation shortly before. About five minutes later, she came to the workers and told them “he’s trashing the place.” She appeared to be on the phone with police at the same time, he said. “Because we were scared for her safety, we took her into the house we were working on,

White Rock

locked the door” and told her to wait in an upstairs closet, Benetti said. Police arrived and “right away” drew their guns, Benetti said. Benetti described both Beddow and the young woman as “quite agitated… maybe high on something.” He could not see if Beddow had a gun, but said the woman told him, when asked, that there was one in the house. Elvevoll testified he didn’t give the initial altercation between Beddow and the woman much weight, and said he didn’t hear anything about Beddow possibly having a gun. Regarding the verbal exchange between Beddow and police, he said Beddow was “kind of crazy with rage,” repeatedly swearing at the officers when they ordered him to drop his gun. Witness Linda D’onofrio described seeing Beddow waving a gun back and forth in front of the officers and hearing him swearing at them repeatedly as they ordered him to drop the gun. Then, she heard five pops. “It was surreal,” D’onofrio said of the incident. “I think it took a while for it to sink in that this was really happening.” A total of 19 witnesses are expected to testify at the inquest, which is scheduled for three days in Burnaby. MacKenzie told the jury they will hear evidence that Beddow was killed by a gunshot wound to the chest, but that he also had “a level of cocaine within a lethal range” in his system. It is up to the jury to determine the facts surrounding Beddow’s death. They cannot make findings of legal responsibility, but may make recommendations aimed at preventing deaths under similar circumstances. Beddow’s death was the second policeshooting fatality in less than a month. Three weeks earlier, 28-year-old Adam Purdie was killed following a police chase in South Surrey. An inquest last month into Purdie’s death offered four recommendations, including that dash cameras be installed in all active police patrol cars.

Surrey taxpayers could face equivalent of 2-3% increase, estimates Coun. Linda Hepner

Tax hike urged for North Shore upgrades Jeff Nagel Black Press

A push by Vancouver and North Shore politicians to spread much of the cost of a new Lions Gate sewage-treatment plant onto the rest of Metro Vancouver is running into strong resistance in other parts of the region. The new treatment plant was originally pegged at $400 million but is now estimated at $500 to $700 million. Unless there are huge contributions from the federal and provincial governments, North Shore and Vancouver residents face skyrocketing utility costs that could add hundreds of dollars to their annual bills. Under pressure from those municipalities to ease the hit to their taxpayers, Metro Vancouver administrators are contemplating changes to the cost-allocation formula that could sharply boost the costs to homeowners in areas like Surrey, Langley and the northeast sector. “No one has yet convinced me that there’s

a need for a different formula,” said Surrey Coun. Linda Hepner, estimating Surrey households could face the equivalent of a two to three per cent property-tax hike to pay for the North Shore sewage plant. Under the existing formula, primary sewage treatment is paid entirely by the local municipality, while the region covers 70 per cent of the cost of upgrades to secondary treatment. Since an all-new Lions Coun. Linda Hepner Gate plant is needed, the benefitting Lions Gate sewerage area – Vancouver and the North Shore – must cover much more of the cost than if it was merely an upgrade to secondary at the old site. The notion of changing the formula now rankles politicians in the other suburbs because they were in the same position years

ago when the Annacis Island treatment plant was built. Back then, Surrey wanted a fairer formula to share the load across the region but North Shore and Vancouver politicians rejected the idea because it would have cost their taxpayers more. Hepner said the only way she’d accept a revised formula now is if it retroactively takes into account the extra costs paid by cities like Surrey for the Annacis treatment plant, adjusted to today’s dollars. “Our citizens had to pay for a long period of time – the last two decades – the cost of that Annacis plant,” she said. Burnaby Mayor Derek Corrigan said he’s not surprised Metro’s eastern and northeastern communities have little appetite to pay more to help Vancouver and the North Shore after being rebuffed before. “Now you want us to start paying for yours too?” Corrigan asked. “What all of a sudden made everybody on the North Shore into socialists?”

He noted Surrey might actually benefit down the road if the formula was overhauled, as Annacis will face significant upgrade costs eventually, too. The Iona treatment plant is also supposed to get a $1-billionplus replacement after Lions Gate. But Corrigan said it looks like it will be difficult to find a solution all can accept, particularly if cities that paid more for Annacis in the past are to be compensated. “I can’t see how we un-ring this bell.” One advantage of proceeding under the threat of exorbitant rate hikes on the North Shore, Corrigan said, is that there are plenty of Conservative MPs there for locals to lobby to deliver a big federal contribution to the Lions Gate project. “If anyone has the ear of the Conservative government, it’s going to be them.” North Vancouver City Mayor Darrell Mussatto, Metro’s utilities committee chair, said Metro staff are working on a new formula and the board could vote on it by early fall.

World match awaits

National chess champ at age nine Luke Pulfer is the new king of Canadian youth chess. The nine-year-old South Surrey resident captured a national under-10 title at Canadian Youth Chess Championships in Ottawa last weekend. The trip to nationals – which ran July 10-13 in the country’s capital – was not a first for Pulfer; he placed second at the event in 2011, which earned him a trip to World Youth Chess Championships in Brazil. With this year’s victory, Pulfer, along with 11 other Canadian agegroup champs, is again set to take on the world – this time in the United Arab Emirates. The World Youth Chess Championships will be staged Dec. 17-29 in Al Ain, UAE. Pulfer began playing chess in 2009, and has won more than two dozens trophies since.

Luke Pulfer is Canada’s best.

Waking from a nap at 2 p.m. last week, David found his friend of 10 years beaten senseless in the bathtub of the Newton home they rented. On the Sunday afternoon (July 7), Scott Ashley McMillan, 55, had been beaten in the head so badly, he was unable to communicate with his friend. David – who asked that his last name not be published – went next door to call 911, bringing help. But it was too late. McMillan spent the next three days in hospital on life support and died on July 10. Last Thursday, David was in the process of leaving the home they shared in the 13800block of 64 Avenue and hadn’t been updated on his friend’s condition. “How is he?” he asked, then turned away and froze for a moment when he found out McMillan had died.

Bridge up to BNSF safety standards › from page 1 “To say it is in bad shape is a gross understatement,” Baldwin writes. “Should this bridge fail while being crossed by a freight train carrying dangerous goods… it would be extremely disastrous to our residents and natural environment.” He asks for an inspection to be done “without delay,” and for the results to be made public. South Surrey resident Perry Adebar – a UBC professor of structural engineering – called for immediate action, telling CBC News Wednesday that the structure’s level of safety is inadequate. Melonas, however, said that while maintenance issues have been identified, it is regularly inspected and safe. “If the bridge did not comply to our safety standards, we would not

Fatality › from page 1 Len Doray, managing broker of HomeLife Benchmark Realty in White Rock, where Grahame has been a longtime real estate agent, told PAN Monday that Lewis’ husband was devastated. “I don’t know what to say, but he’s just beside himself,” Doray said. “It’s a very difficult time.” The police investigation is ongoing, with RCMP focusing on finding any media surveillance that may have caught the incident. Amtrak spokesperson Vernae Graham said the engineer spotted something on the tracks and he put the Vancouverbound train into an “emergency brake situation” prior to impact. She noted “the crosswalk there has no protection – there are no gates or whistles or anything.” BNSF spokesperson Gus Melonas said the crossing is posted with warning signs that are in compliance with Transport Canada requirements. The speed of the train at the time of the accident is unknown, however, the designated speed for that area is 55 km/h, Graham said. Melonas confirmed BNSF, as track owner, will have a team involved in the investigation. BC Coroners Office media contact Barb McLintock said further information will be released as soon as possible, citing limited staff – and media inquiries into Saturday’s death of television star Cory Monteith, as well as a four-person plane crash in Pemberton last month – for the delay.

(operate) trains over it,” he said. Transport Canada communications officer Sau Sau Liu said by email Thursday that a rail safety inspector “found no threat to safe railway operations” during a March 12 inspection of the bridge. Liu noted BNSF’s Bridge Safety Management Program “conforms to Transport Canada guidelines.” As well, BNSF inspectors are checking the bridge on a monthly basis until the span can

be replaced, and remedial repairs will be completed in the interim. Melonas said temporary fixes planned for this month include the replacement of timber shims with steel and the replacement of braces and some bearings. The full span replacement is expected to cost US$1.3 million and take about four months. A design has been finalized and the work will be planned to not disrupt the train schedules, he said. “We’ll continue to move local, national, international freight through the corridor safely.” Melonas noted the Little Campbell bridge is not the only work BNSF is eyeing. More than US$5 million is to be spent this year on the first phase of an “approach bridge” over the Serpentine River; another US$2.44 million is planned in other areas of B.C.

B.C.’s health officer echoes calls for health-impact assessment

Kendall backs coal study

Shop for a new treasure!

Jeff Nagel Black Press

Provincial Health Officer Dr. Perry Kendall waded into the debate last week on increased coal exports through Metro Vancouver, backing calls for a healthimpact assessment on a proposed new terminal in Surrey. He spoke out Wednesday, a day after Vancouver council voted 9-2 to ban coal movement, handling or storage within city limits as a pre-emptive strike against any similar proposal. “I think it would be eminently sensible,” Kendall said, when asked by Black Press if he Dr. Perry Kendall supports the B.C. health officer requests from Lower Mainland medical health officers for a health-impact assessment. He noted Dr. Patricia Daly of Vancouver Coastal and Dr. Paul Van Buynder of Fraser Health have raised potential risks to the public from air quality degradation and coal-transportation issues related to the Fraser Surrey Docks proposed terminal, which could see eight million tonnes of

Sex sting snares woman A Surrey woman is facing child-sex charges in the U.S. after allegedly having online conversations with a man she believed was a fatherof-two, and planning the molestation of his children. The man was actually a federal agent. According to the CBC, Theresa Louise Goddard, 45, was arrested June 26 when she arrived at Dulles International Airport in Washington, D.C. The investigation by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security began after an online ad was posted by someone with the handle “pervstepmom.” The woman allegedly said she “wanted to become a stepmom to an incest family” and began corresponding with the man, who she thought had a son and daughter. Goddard has been charged with coercion of a minor, a felony offence. She is being held in custody in Virginia.

An uncovered coal train passes through White Rock’s waterfront. coal per year loaded from trains onto barges. “I think it makes sense to ask the proponent to do the studies,” Kendall said. “I think it would be a useful thing to do because it might indicate risks that can be mitigated. If you can demonstrate you can mitigate the risks, it might reassure folks.” Kendall denied he has authority under the B.C. Public Health Act to order a health-impact assessment – a City of Vancouver staff report said he can mandate one. “I don’t have that power,” he said. But Kendal noted the province delegates its air-quality authority to Metro Vancouver, so the

regional district has considerable power to require further study at the permitting stage. Port Metro Vancouver is expected to rule at any time on the Fraser Surrey Docks terminal. Vancouver is the latest city in the region to signal disapproval with increased coal exports. Metro Vancouver’s board last month passed a motion opposing more coal shipments from the Fraser River estuary – a motion aimed at the proposed new $15-million coal transfer terminal in Surrey. Opposition to the new terminal includes residents from White Rock to New Westminster. Surrey council has yet to take a position on the issue.

Safety first It’s been just over a week since a horrific tragedy struck the town of Lac-Mégantic, Que. and changed the lives of its residents. An unmanned train, consisting of five locomotives and 72 tank cars filled with crude oil, ran 11 kilometres down a 1.2-per cent grade and then derailed in the midst of town. It happened at 1 a.m. July 6. Within minutes, there was a massive fireball and 40 buildings and as many as 50 people were gone – dead or missing. Things must change as a result of this tragedy. First, railroads must rigorously follow safety procedures. That includes having at least two crew members aboard moving trains. Trainssitting in sidings for extended periods must have brakes properly applied – both air and hand brakes. Second, any train that contains explosive and/ or hazardous goods must not remain unattended for more than a few minutes. If it is sitting for hours, waiting for a crew change or delayed due to disruptions, there must be someone from the rail company in the cab. Third, no train should be parked on the crest of a hill without devices such as a derailer on the track directly in front of it. Had this train derailed as soon as the brakes failed, there would have been minimal damage and almost certainly no oil spills, let alone explosion. Fourth, municipal officials must know the entire range of goods transported on trains through their communities. (By the way, crude oil in a tank car will have a placard with the number 1267 on each car. All dangerous goods, whether in trucks or rail cars, must be placarded. Gasoline is 1203, propane is 1075). Fifth, the federal government needs to look closely into what type of tank cars are transporting crude oil and other dangerous goods. The DOT-111 or CTC-111A type cars are not sufficient. Sixth, the federal government needs to make money available to relocate some rail lines away from the centre of communities – particularly in the case of lines that are hauling a lot of dangerous goods. Alternatively, the government must make funds available for track and signal upgrades so that the tracks are as safe as possible. Dangerous goods are transported in Surrey and White Rock regularly. Firefighters say they are ready for a major spill or accident – but are other members of the community ready? As seen in Lac-Mégantic, nothing could have prepared people there for what happened. A healthy rail sector is good for the Canadian economy, but people in communities bisected by rail lines deserve to know that trains on those lines are being operated with the maximum of safety procedures.

swept through a year ago. The question of limits for protecting people who choose to build homes in risky locations seldom comes up in our political-media theatre. The media’s key ingredients are sympathetic victims to fit their narrative that all corporations and governments are greedy, stingy, callous and incompetent in everything they do. What the opposition has dubbed “Christy Clark’s wheelchair tax” is another case in point. A Fraser Health Authority official patiently explained what was really going on here. An average $35 monthly rent for wheelchairs is charged at the majority of care facilities, which are contracted by the health authority. Operators charge as they see fit for maintenance, disinfection and replacement of this equipment, for patients who don’t own their own chairs. In September, a $25 fee is to be extended to the few facilities still directly run by Fraser Health, which have aging equipment and no fees. In all facilities, the fee is waived for those who can’t afford it. It would be useful for our politicians to frankly discuss the trend towards contracted health services, and the role of user fees in forcing people to take more responsibility for maintaining their own health. But that is not what happens. The narrative of dumping frail, impoverished seniors from their wheelchairs has no relationship to reality, but it’s how postmodern political theatre is done.

Political theory for origin story Editor: Re: A unique identity worth celebrating, July 2 editorial. Did the first peoples of Canada arrive on foot across the Bering Sea land bridge? First Nations believe they have been here since time immemorial, and their creation stories reflect this attitude. The Haudensaunee (Iroquois) tell about how animals co-operated to make land for stranded Sky Woman on the back of a turtle, creating “iyiniwi-ministik” (the Peoples’ Island). The Heiltsuk (Bella Bella) believe the Creator set down their ancestors on this territory before the time of the Great Flood. While archaeological evidence exists to identify the presence of people 11,000 years ago in the Valley of Mexico, other information suggests humans were here long before the last ice age. Migrations may have come from the sea. This does not, however, preclude the notion that Indigenous peoples may have been here for over 100,000 years. The Bering Land theory may derive its impetus from political considerations. If it can be convincingly argued that First Nations were fairly new immigrants to North America, they could be disqualified from being the original inhabitants and have no claim to first occupancy. Given that the B.C. provincial government refers to natives as “family groups” – and not nations or even communities – it is understandable that First Nations have been more outspoken about their origins, and thus more willing to resort to the courts to adjudicate on aboriginal title. Raven may have had to work hard to encourage man to come out of the cockle shell; let’s hope understanding about aboriginal origins does not meet the same reluctance. Bob Burgel, Surrey

Piper already has the space Editor: Re: ‘Late info’ delays decision on councillor’s pub, June 27; …a divisive issue, July 4 letters. After hearing some of the comments from individuals who expressed their concern over the application for the Sandpiper Pub to increase their licensed capacity, I feel it best to provide the definitive reasoning for the request. In addition, as owner of the Sandpiper Pub and Liquor Store I will provide clarity to a situation where it doesn’t seem to exist. The construction of the Sandpiper began back in 1980 and opened to the public in 1981. At that time, the licensed capacity of a neighbourhood pub was set

at 65 people by the Liquor Board of the day. It didn’t matter if the building maximum occupancy load was 150 people, you were set at 65 seats – for the most part –period. Based on the square footage of the Sandpiper – not including the staff areas and washrooms – the pub can hold 100 people. This is the allowable capacity that provides the necessary level of safety for people to be able to exit quickly in case of an emergency. The Sandpiper is applying to get the licensed capacity equal to the allowable building capacity. That’s it.

We’re not expanding our physical space to be able to accommodate additional people – as some incorrectly assume – we already have the space. Having those extra people inside the pub would reduce the number of usually noisy people waiting in line, thus making it quieter for our residential neighbours. I hope this provides a clearer picture of what the application entails. Hopefully those who originally disapproved of the application will see that it actually makes sense. Judy Baker, Sandpiper Pub

Deal with dogs’ aggressiveness Editor: Re: Dog killed, June 25. I am tired of dog owners of known aggressive breeds defending those dogs’ actions and allowing these pets to be off-leash in public areas.

Residents call on elected representatives from various levels of government to support positions on train traffic.

Politicians should get on board Editor: Last week, I finally saw what all the fuss is about. I was down at the waterfront around 10 a.m. and watched a very long empty coal train go by. Next came a short passenger train. Next, another coal train, this one 122 cars in length, each one containing uncovered coal. The time frame: one and a half hours. I do hear the train whistle occasionally. The last time was two blasts from the whistle at 6 a.m. this morning. So what this seems to be saying is that no matter what protests are put forth, they are falling on deaf ears. Port Metro Vancouver, along with the federal government, have their minds already made up. To hell with what the majority may feel, this is business and business is money! Enter our MP Russ Hiebert (Community being heard over coal, July 2). As our representative for this area, now would be a good time for him to step up to the plate and speak on our behalf. Fifty jobs should not be part of the criteria for allowing this obscenity to become a reality. It is folly to even consider more trains to become such an integral part of such a high tourist area. Health, safety and the environment should be of paramount concern. Fran Manary, Surrey n An open letter to Surrey-White Rock MLA Gordon Hogg. I am very concerned about the possibility of increased coal trains running through our neighbourhood. As our representative, I am curious to know what your position is on this situation, as well as the position of your party. There seems to be a lot of coverage in the media about pipelines running through the wilderness in northern B.C., while we have companies trying to run 20+ coal trains a day through residential neighbourhoods, and I have yet to hear you or your leader raise any concerns. I realize it is good politics to play the game around “big oil” but, let’s be honest, an oil spill – while having negative economic impacts – will have little to no longterm health repercussions for citizens of B.C. Coal trains through residential neighbourhoods, on the other hand, will impact people’s lives immediately and every day. I attended a forum and was informed of the considerable health risks associated with this activity in return for limited economic benefits. I am very pro

business and do not oppose activities that benefit the province as a whole, but it seems a little strange that we would allow the U.S. to transfer their issues to us. These train tracks run past hundreds of homes as well as numerous schools. It seems to be a very shortsighted plan that is benefiting a few at the expense of many. David Prodanovic, Surrey n The Quebec tragedy should raise serious concerns regarding train traffic through White Rock. Some time ago, I wrote to the city, asking what goods went through White Rock besides the coal, and I was referred to Transport Canada. The standard response from the city is that they have no jurisdiction over length of trains, their noise levels and what they carry, and that everything is regulated by Transport Canada. I could not believe the passive response from the city when its citizens are at potential risks. Statistics indicate there is a decent possibility of derailment in our area, especially if the frequency is increased. I have a proposal for the city: Can we have our federal MP, our provincial MLA, our national Minister for Transport and our beloved mayor in the same room to discuss the concerns we have expressed often regarding the rail traffic through White Rock? I was alarmed to read that BNSF acknowledged that some petroleum products are transported on their rail but they refused to give more details. Aroon Shah, White Rock

Parental responsibility Re: Impassioned pleas over coal, July 4 letters. I am ambivalent about the increased coal-train travel. I live a mile from the tracks, enjoy the whistles from a distance and can’t say I feel the effect of coal dust. I have my share of allergies and feel for those who are affected. However, for letter-writer Harvey Ostroff to argue that someone’s child is endangered, because they are chasing a ball onto the track, ignores the law of common sense. It is your responsibility, as parents, to teach your children to stay off the train tracks. At all times. Period. Katherine Booth, Surrey

Metro Vancouver directors have rejected a proposal to let stock cars race once again at a longclosed speedway in Campbell Valley Regional Park. Metro’s environment and parks committee voted 8-3 Thursday to halt further study of the idea after passionate presentations from defenders of the South Langley park. Most committee members agreed racing would be an incompatible use, at odds with the enjoyment of nature and the use of the area by horse riders. Most also said the proposal faced multiple hurdles, including potential reviews over fishery or environmental risks, and needed approval from the Agricultural Land Commission. “From my perspective, the challenges are just too great,” said Langley Township Coun. Bob Long. Richmond Coun. Harold Steves said it would inappropriately alter the longstanding theme of nature and equestrian use at Campbell Valley. The society proposed racing at a restored speedway on a maximum of 14 days a year, with the facility acting as a multi-purpose venue for concerts and other events as well – potentially becoming a money maker for the Metro parks department. “People say it will be the ruination of the park,” said Langley City Coun. Gayle Martin, one of three directors who wanted more study on the racing option. “It’s two per cent of the park, one per cent of the time.” Abbotsford Mayor Bruce Banman and North Vancouver District Coun. Mike Little also voted against the motion to reject the speedway. The debate pitted two different sets of horsepower fans against each other – equestrians and car racers. It also left Metro

I still don’t rule out, in spite of what happened here today, the return of racing one day to Campbell Valley Regional Park.” Several directors said there’s clearly demand for a racing venue in Metro Vancouver and were hopeful a more suitable site might be found.

Crews dispatched after 17-year-old spotted in distress

Hypothermic teen rescued A teenager suffering from what appeared to be hypothermia was rescued from the White Rock breakwater earlier this month. Crew members with the Crescent Beach Royal Canadian Marine Search and Rescue were dispatched to the scene just before 6 p.m. July 4, after a citizen reported seeing a kiteboarder waving for help. An extensive search did not locate anyone in the water, however, as the crew neared the end of White Rock pier, they were directed to a group of teenagers on the breakwater who were concerned about a 17-year-old. Fire Chief Phil Lemire said a report on the incident indicates the girl started having trouble after swimming in the area for a little while. With assistance from White Rock firefighters, she was transferred to the pier and to the care of paramedics. - Tracy Holmes

Help with Parenting After Separation Everyone has heard of situations where parents separate and are then constantly in Court because they can’t agree on how to raise their children. The new Family Law Act has provided a new tool to try to assist families to resolve their own issues and re-establish communication between the parents – Parenting Coordinators. A parenting coordinator is a professional appointed by the Court or by the parties to assist the parties in resolving minor or chronic issues dealing with the children in order to reduce the stress experienced by the parties and the children. The issues addressed by the parenting coordinator may include conflicts over pick-up and drop-off times, holiday parenting time, school or family events and choice of extracurricular activities. A parenting coordinator can help design and modify a parenting plan to fit the needs of the children and parties, assist the parties in exchanging information and developing communication skills and, if necessary, resolve disputes in the role of an arbitrator. If a parenting coordinator may be of assistance in your situation, we suggest that you contact your family lawyer for more information.

Son battling rare disease

Mother’s strength Sarah Massah

Staff Reporter

early three years ago, Krystal Shipley was told by doctors to say goodbye to her two-month-old son, Ayzac. “One day, he just went grey and limp and was struggling to breathe,” the South Surrey mom recalled of the day in September 2010. “We almost lost him in ICU.” After two days on life support, Ayzac pulled through. But there were no answers as to what caused him to become so ill, so suddenly. Five months later, the mother of three received results from a muscle biopsy confirming that her youngest child had a mitochondrial disease.The complex disease prevents the body from producing the energy it needs to sustain life, Shipley explained. “Mitochondria are in every cell of the body, except our red-blood cells, and they produce the energy to sustain life. Without that energy, the organs don’t function properly, affecting skin, muscles, tissues – everything,” she said. However, of the more than 140 known types of mitochondrial disease, Ayzac’s did Contributed photo not fit the criteria.

Semiahmoo Hotel’s new owners plan re-opening

Rob Bosley photo

The Semiahmoo Hotel closed in December 2012.

Extra Twelfth Night show announced Those who missed out on the tight fourhour window to buy tickets for Beach House Theatre’s summer performance of Twelfth Night received another chance this week. Because of the support and demand for tickets, the Peninsula-based theatre company added one more show, on Aug. 13, 8 p.m. in Crescent Beach, and began selling tickets last night (Monday) at 7:30. This is the second season of Shakespearian comedy and romance at Crescent Beach hosted

by the theatre company – the brainchild of Earl Marriott Secondary drama instructor Candace Radcliffe, and Rick Harmon, who retired from teaching drama there several years ago. Last year’s performance of A Midsummer Night’s Dream sold out almost as quickly as this year’s performance, with tickets snagged only a few days after going on sale. Tickets, sold online at www. beachhousetheatre.org, are $25, plus taxes and service charges.

New owners of Blaine’s now-closed Semiahmoo Hotel aim to have the business re-opened “at the earliest possible date.” A newly formed group, Resort Semiahmoo LLC – a subsidiary of Seattle-based Wright Hotels – announced June 21 it had purchased the resort, and its two golf courses, Semiahmoo Golf and Country Club and Loomis Trail, for $19.5 million. “We hope to hire staff and to welcome guests to a new and refreshed Semiahmoo before the end of the summer season,” said

Wright Hotels president Stuart Rolfe. Last November, Semiahmoo Resort Co. – the former owners of the property – announced it was closing the Semiahmoo Hotel effective Dec. 1, after 25 years of operation. In a news release at the time, the company, majority-owned by the Upper Skagit Indian Tribe, blamed the closure on the collapse of conferencebooking business as a result of the 2008 recession. The hotel had been on the market for several years before the December closure,

and was nearly sold in 2010 but the sale fell through. The new ownership’s immediate focus will be the re-opening of the hotel, while also aiming to make improvements. “We have a long list of improvements to be made,” Rolfe said. According to Rolfe, elements of the hotel slated for an upgrade include “a major cleaning of all areas of the resort,” as well as renovated spa and athletic facilities, restaurant improvements and interior-design and architecture upgrades.

South Surrey’s Ashley Brooks taking part in pageant reality show

Bullying victim seeks beauty-queen crown Sarah Massah Staff Reporter

A South Surrey teen vying for the title of Ms. Vancouver hopes to use the platform to advocate anti-bullying. Ashley Brooks, 18, has been selected to participate in the Vancouver Television reality show, Ms. and Mr. Vancouver Pageant, which is to chronicle the contestants’ journey to the three-day pageant this fall. With her new exposure, the Earl Marriott Secondary grad aims to increase awareness on the growing issue of bullying. After temporarily moving from the Peninsula to Winnipeg – before beginning middle school – Brooks said she soon found herself ostracized from her new friends in Manitoba. “I made friends with some people from the ‘popular’ group and I adored them, I (idolized) them, thought the world of them. Then a bunch of stuff happened…” she said. While she admits it can be hard to talk about such a personal subject, she hopes that sharing her story of using the negativity to make herself stronger will inspire others going through similar situations. “I went through so much with those girls. They put me down so much, and I had nobody. I had so much time to myself, so much time to think, that they actually motivated me to do better and be better and better myself,” she said. In April, while filming an online

Sarah Massah photo

commercial for hair extensions, Brooks learned about the pageant from the commercial’s narrator, TV host Malaika Jackson, who is also a producer at Vancouver Television, Brooks explained. “She messaged me (after the commercial) and asked me if I wanted to be a part of it,” Brooks said. Once Brooks had read more about the pageant and reviewed the contract with her mother, Brooks signed on the dotted line May 3. Throughout the show, the

contestants will film a variety of commercials for pageant sponsors – including Harrison Hot Springs Resort and Barnes Wheaton GM – all leading up to a three-day pageant Nov. 21-24, which will, include a talent portion. While Brooks admits she is not a singer or a dancer, she said she hopes to film herself painting one of her original pieces, from start to finish, editing it so it runs in fast-forward and includes music. Painting has provided Brooks an outlet to express her feelings, her mother, Lin, said, noting that one of her recent pieces features a young girl literally carrying the weight of the world on her shoulders. Another aspect of the pageant is raising funds for BC Children’s Hospital, which inspired Brooks and her mother to organize a fundraiser for BCCH in their community. On Sept. 8, the mother-daughter duo will host a cut-a-thon sponsored by L’Anza Healing Haircare, where Lin works. The cut-a-thon will be held at Hair Art Academy, 155585 24 Ave., with partial proceeds benefitting the hospital. If Brooks wins the title of Ms. Vancouver, she will also win a oneyear hosting internship at Vancouver Television, providing a stepping stone to her future career. “That’s really important because I want to go into broadcast journalism,” she said. “This is opening some doors.”

Professionals ON THE SEMIAHMOO PENINSULA

Sunscreen important for eyes as well as skin protection at all times, but especially in the summer when the sun is at its most intense. Your sunglasses should block out 99 to 100% of UVA and UVB rays, but there are other features which can give you more comfortable vision. Polarized lenses eliminate reflected glare from any flat, smooth or shiny surface for a cleaner, crisper view. This includes glare from the water, making polarized a great choice for anyone who spends time at the beach, likes fishing or water sports. A good quality polarized sunglass, such as Maui Jim, will have its polarized layer inside the lens and not just a film that can scratch or peel off.

A waterproof coating will help to shed water and an oleophobic coating will repel grease and make any smudges (from sunscreen!) easier to wipe off. A mirror coating will give added protection by deflecting some of the bright light making it useful in bright conditions. It is important to know that paying a high price does not guarantee sufficient protection. The only way to assess UV protection in a lens is to have it measured by a properly equipped optician. We invite you to bring in your current glasses and we will measure the UV protection. If it is time for a new pair we have a large selection of non-prescription sunglasses and most can be made in to prescription for you.

team? Zach Bell doesn’t need no stinkin’ team. Bell, the reigning Canadian road-race champion, cruised to victory solo – he was the only member of his Champion System team in the field – at the Tour de White Rock’ Peace Arch News Road Race Sunday, in what was one of the event’s most dominant performances in recent memory. Bell – a Watson Lake, Yukon native who now lives in the Lower Mainland – won the 134-km men’s race in less-thandramatic fashion, crossing the finish line four minutes and five seconds in front of second-place finisher Michael Schweizer, who pulled away from the chase group on the final lap of the race’s short course. German rider Florenz Knauer was third, 42 seconds behind Schweizer, his fellow countryman. And while Bell, a former Canadian track-cycling champion, admits riding solo against so many powerful teams was tough, he knew from experience – he’s competed in White Rock “five, six times, maybe more” – that a cyclist could win the race without team support. It was Bell’s first podium finish of BC Superweek, having placed no higher than 18th at both Delta and UBC races. “It’s been the story of the teams this week, and there was a lot of single riders like me, Christian (Meier) and Will (Routley) trying to fight against all these teams, but some of them are just too strong,” Bell explained. “But this is the kind of race where your team can desert you pretty quickly… I think a lot of guys are pretty intimidated by the course, and I know the course rewards guys who aren’t scared of it. It rewards the aggressive rider, if you’ve got the legs.” Bell certainly did Sunday, breaking away from the peloton midway through the long laps, first riding up front with fellow Watson Lake native Jesse Reams and then by himself. With a lead of nearly three minutes on the penultimate long lap, Bell ramped up his effort and gained 40 seconds on the field, which all but sealed the win. “There was one lap where guys started attacking, and I thought ‘This is where you can demoralize ‘em.’ So I just lit it for one lap and went pretty hard up both hills. “Then I heard the (time splits) and

thought, ‘Whoa, that’s some dreamcrushing right there.’” While Bell won the men’s road race essentially by himself, the opposite was true in the 80-km women’s road race, as the powerful Now and Novaris for MS team – which was seven riders strong Sunday – dominated the podium, with California’s Kathryn Donovan taking first place, nearly three minutes ahead of teammate Lex Albrecht. Team Tibco’s Jasmin Glaesser rounded out the top three, with Now/Novaris riders Olivia Dillon and Devon Gorry in fourth and fifth place, respectively. The win was a fitting end to BC Superweek for the Now/Novaris team, which swept Saturday’s Tour de White › see page 23

Surrey Storm ’96’s Gabby Jamieson beats Parksville Rage’s Elyssa Dunlop to first base during a Futures Selects game Sunday.

Futures, Showcase Select divisions highlight weekend action

Youth teams shine at Canadian Open The youth divisions were centre stage in the first four days of the Scotiabank Canadian Open Fastpitch International Championship, but international competition will highlight the rest of the week. And judging by the results of the US World Cup of Softball, which concluded Sunday in Oklahoma, the sixteam Women’s International tournament at Softball City is wide open. Japan defeated the United States 6-3 to win the World Cup

title. Australia edged Canada 4-3 in extra innings in the third-place game. The top four teams from Oklahoma will be in Surrey today for the first games of the Women’s international division at the Canadian Open. Japan opens against Venezuela at 3:30 p.m., followed by Canada taking on the California A’s at 6:30 p.m. Games at 8:30 p.m. include Australia against Venezuela and the A’s playing the U.S. n The Quebec Rebelles have the early lead in the four-team

Women’s Elite group. They erased an early 2-0 deficit to edge the Northwest Lady Sharks 3-2 in eight innings in the first game of the competition Saturday. They then unleashed an 18-hit attack to thump Team BC 10-3 in six innings Sunday. Team BC and the White Rock Renegades are tied for second, each with a win and a loss. n The Futures (18-and-under) and Showcase (16-and-under) Selects tournaments concluded yesterday with championship games, after Peace Arch News’

deadline. American teams claimed the top three seeds for the Futures Selects playoff round. The Spokane Diamonds, Edmonds Stars and Oregon Fastpitch were the three groups winners after round robin play, each with four wins in as many games. Two teams from the Surrey Storm rep program earned the top two seeds for the Showcase Select playoff, each with four wins in four round-robin games. – Rick Kupchuk

The petition will be issued to proponent Dana Larsen on Monday, September 9, 2013 and signature sheets must be submitted to the Chief Electoral Officer by Monday, December 9, 2013. The Title of the Initiative is: An initiative to amend the Police Act. Summary of Initiative: The initiative draft Bill entitled, “Sensible Policing Act” proposes to amend the Police Act to no longer use provincial police resources on the enforcement of current laws in relation to simple possession and use of cannabis by adults. The draft law would prohibit the use of provincial police resources for this purpose, would require police to report in detail to the Minister of Justice any actual use of resources for this purpose and why it was necessary, and require the Minister to publish that report. The Bill also proposes that the province would call upon the Federal Government to repeal the federal prohibition on cannabis, or give British Columbia an exemption, such that British Columbia is able to tax and regulate cannabis similar to the regulation of alcohol and tobacco. As well it proposes that British Columbia shall establish a Provincial Commission to study the means and requirements necessary for the province to establish a legal and regulated model for the production and use of cannabis by adults. Last, the Bill would make non-lawful possession and use of cannabis by minors an offence similar to possession and use of alcohol.

White Rock Renegades’ pair set for Canadian Open

Friends share in team success Two of the starting pitchers for the White Rock Renegades ’98 softball team will take on the best of the best at this year’s Canadian Open Fastpitch International Championship. With their complementary pitching styles, Katie Humej – a power pitcher – and offspeed pitcher Elizabeth Murphy plan to work as a team to make it another successful summer season for the Renegades. They have plenty to build on after last season – a year that included taking top honours at provincials and nationals. With the Renegades again getting set for the international tournament, Humej said she can’t wait. “I’m honestly just so excited to play ball with my team. We’re going to have a lot of good competition,” she said. The Cloverdale resident has played with the Renegades since first-year squirt division,

Renegades Elizabeth Murphy and Katie Humej. and has been a pitcher for almost all of her young career. A year and a half ago, Murphy – from Maple Ridge – was added to the roster as another starting pitcher. And while some may have anticipated a healthy dose of competition between the two teens, Murphy said the bond between them on the field has only brought them, and the whole team, closer together off it. “Everyone was really friendly as soon as I got there. Katie was really excited to have another pitcher on the team and we became really good friends right away,”

‘Great week’ for team › from page 21 Rock criterium – Gorry was first, followed by Robin Farina and Lauren KomanskiRauck – while Albreht took the White Rock omnium title for overall results. “The team has had a great week,” Donovan said Sunday. After riding near the lead for much of the race, Donovan made her final push for the win on the short course, pulling away from the chase group on the hill. “I attacked on the climb and stayed away but I still wasn’t sure how far ahead I was, so I went hard just in case,” she said. Donovan said with so many teammates in the hunt for the omnium, the team was not pushing for one particular rider to

win. Instead, they just wanted riders up near the front of the race. As for how Donovan managed to pull away on her own, she was not exactly sure. “You’d push it… then notice all of a sudden, girls were missing.” On Saturday, the men’s criterium was won by Knauer, who also claimed the men’s omnium title. Friday’s men’s hill climb was won by one of the youngest riders in the field, 18-year-old Brandon Etzl, from St. Catherine’s, Ont. Etzl finished just ahead of Knauer, who won the event in 2012. Knauer’s teammate, fellow German rider Yannick Mayer, placed third. “It was a tough race,” Etzl said. Albrecht won the women’s hill climb.

Murphy said. While both girls admit to giving their all when prepping for their game, Katie said that the most

important thing is having fun. “We all cheer for each other. It’s just such a good feeling. It’s a great sport and it’s a team sport,” Katie said. The Renegades are at home this week for the Canadian Open, which began Friday and runs until July 22. The Renegades open the tournament today (Tuesday) with two games, first against Calgary Kaizen ’97 and then against Quebec. – Sarah Massah

Daggitt, Carol bcclassified.com

After a two and a half year battle with metastasized breast cancer of the spine, Carol Daggitt (49), passed away peacefully, surrounded by family and friends. Carol was first diagnosed with breast cancer in March of 2007 and after a year of chemo and radiation she was cancer free for nearly 5 years only to find out it metastasized to her spine in 2011. Carol fought with everything she had until the very last day, and was an inspiration to many people in her community. Carol grew up in Prince George BC, with her parents and sister. This is where she was to later meet her husband of 25 years, Randy. After graduating with a degree in Physiotherapy from the University of Alberta, she moved to Victoria BC to be with her husband and begin her professional career. Shortly after their two children, Hailey and Hayden were born the family moved to South Surrey where they built a home together. Carol was a geriatric physiotherapist at Peace Arch Hospital until 2011 and had a very fulfilling career allowing her be close to home and spend time with her kids. Even during her worst days Carol was the rock of the family, always making sure that everyone else was taken care of. She loved spending time at Crescent Beach, at her cabin on the lake, playing Scrabble, watching hockey, riding her bike, and traveling. She truly defined the term “go-getter”. Carol is leaving behind her loving husband, Randy; her two children, Hailey and Hayden; her mother Joyce Nystrom (late Sidney of White Rock, BC); Sister Arlene Flynn (husband Bob of Kamloops, BC) and her beloved dog Skip, who never left her side. Carol was very close with her husbands’ family including his father Rae Daggitt (late Sharon Daggitt, of Quesnel, BC) and his two sisters Tammy Ballendine (husband Danny, of Quesnel, BC) and Shelley Pederson (husband Michael of Campbell River, BC) as well as numerous nieces, nephews, great nieces and nephews and close friends.
