New 6-lane Pattullo top choice – except in New West
‘It sucks all the colour out of the world’
Surrey-Coquitlam crossing one of a half-dozen options
Still grieving 20 years after the shooting of a pair of Surrey teens, families don’t want them forgotten
by Jeff Nagel A NEW six-lane Pattullo Bridge
by Sheila Reynolds
WHEN IT first happens, there is only numbness, says Wendy Chapman. A loved one is murdered, and there are initially no feelings. Nothing makes sense. Everything seems surreal. A dark shadow is cast and you can’t fathom this is your life. There’s no reprieve from the pain. “It sucks all the colour out of the world,” Chapman says. Yesterday marked 20 years since Chapman’s younger brother Chris Lussier, 16, and his best buddy 15-year-old Paul McDaniel, were shot to death beneath the Pattullo Bridge. On Sept. 11, 1993, the teens were driven to the remote spot by John Joseph Arneil, who gunned them down. A third victim, Richard Moisan, survived by pretending he was dead. Arneil, who was then 18, had confronted the trio of teens on a Surrey street earlier that evening, telling Lussier Wendy Chapman that his girlfriend had accused him of raping her. Arneil convinced them to stay put, warning he’d know Lussier was guilty if he left. The three remained, determined to prove Lussier’s innocence. When he returned, he ordered them into the car and drove to a pile of dirt under the bridge where, one by one, he turned his gun on the teens. Moisan, who was shot in the face, heard Arneil say “adios” before he shot Lussier. He waited until Arneil left and later called 911, identifying him as the killer.
“It’s still just as raw and just as painful as it was the first day.”

Going from Bantam A to the big leagues Two longtime Cloverdale friends are on the brink of hitting the NHL by Rick Kupchuk IT WASN’T too long ago that Tyler Wotherspoon and Laurent Brossoit
lived just a few minutes apart in Cloverdale, playing minor hockey on the same team. A lot has happened since those days with the Cloverdale Colts Bantam A team. They spent the next season together in Major Midget hockey with the Valley West Hawks. Both went on to play junior hockey, Brossoit with the Edmonton Oil Kings and Wotherspoon with the Portland Winterhawks. Both were drafted by a National Hockey League (NHL) team. And both will start their professional careers this season. But last weekend might have felt like old times for the two 20-year-olds. Wotherspoon and Brossoit were on the same team again, playing for the Calgary Flames at the Young Stars competition in Penticton. “We lived about five minutes away from each other,” said Brossoit, a goaltender. “Even when we were on the Cloverdale Colts, we were good friends, we’d hang out together.” It was all business for the two players last weekend. Th e Young Stars competition featured the young Wotherspoon minor leaguers and up-and-coming juniors from five NHL clubs. In addition to the Flames, the host Vancouver Canucks, Winnipeg Jets, Edmonton Oilers and San Jose Sharks all sent a group of 18-22 year-olds to Penticton for three games played over five days at the South Okanagan Events Centre. For Brossoit and Wotherspoon, it was the first time wearing an NHL jersey in a professional game. Brossoit started in two of the three Flames games, a 5-2 win over the Oilers Thursday night and a 3-2 loss to San Jose Sunday evening. He made 52 saves on 57 shots. Wotherspoon took a regular shift on defence, and Brossoit drew praise from coach Troy Ward after his second game Saturday, a 4-1 victory over the Canucks. “One thing you like about Tyler is he’s so good at times you don’t even notice he plays,” said Ward, who will be head coach of the Abbotsford Heat this season. “He’s been steady, and he keeps it real simple.” Admitting it took a few shifts to get his timing back, Wotherspoon was pleased with his first test at the professional level.

Tyler Wotherspoon (front) watches the puck during a game against the Vancouver Canucks at the Young Stars tournament in Penticton. Wotherspoon, a defenceman, and goaltender Laurent Brossoit, are two Cloverdale natives hoping to earn a place on Calgary’s NHL roster. “I felt good. I was a little slow after the summer break, but after a while I felt comfortable out there,” he said after practice Saturday morning. “Right now I’m just trying to play my game, play it steady, and show the management they can trust me and play my role. “I like to be a reliable guy, and getting the trust of the coaches is huge for me. I feel most comfortable when I’m not noticed and playing my game.” Both Brossoit and Wotherspoon have enjoyed plenty of success in Major Junior hockey, including each winning a championship at the expense of the other. Brossoit’s Oilers defeated the Winterhawks in a sevengame Western Hockey League (WHL) final in 2011-12. Last spring, it was Wotherspoon and the Winterhawks skating off with the championship after defeating Edmonton in six games. “Even when we separated in our junior careers we always ended up meeting in the finals,” said Brossoit. “It
was awesome, there was some pride and competitiveness within the friendship. A lot of people can’t say that they played against their best friend in a WHL final.” Teammates for many seasons before becoming friendly rivals in the WHL, they will likely be on the same side again. Barring the unexpected, both are likely to be living at home in Surrey while playing for the Flames’ farm team in the American Hockey League – the Abbotsford Heat. “It’s a win-win situation for me,” said Wotherspoon. “It would be amazing to play in Calgary and play in a great city. But even going back to Abbotsford there’s a lot of great things there. It would be an honour to play for them, and have a lot of friends and family at the games.” “To have the chance to play in your backyard is a pretty cool feeling,” Brossoit said. “I can even live at home, I’m so close.” Maybe just five minutes away from his teammate.

A fun fitness challenge
New span: Will tolls apply? From page 1
If you think conquering cancer is worth sweating over, JOIN US! Register for Workout to Conquer Cancer today.
The consultation report by a joint review team consisting of TransLink and the cities of New Westminster and Surrey was released Monday. Fifty-eight per cent of North Surrey participants supported the sixlane replacement compared to just 36 per cent in New Westminster. Conversely, 59 per cent in New West backed the $1.5-billion SurreyCoquitlam option with Pattullo refit, compared to 43 per cent in North Surrey.
Plenty in New Westminster (59 per cent) actually supported just a Surrey-Coquitlam link without replacing the Pattullo – cutting their city’s historic crossing of the river altogether. But not rebuilding something where the Pattullo now stands isn’t an option, according to the review team, which says the bypass concept wouldn’t provide the strong road connection needed between Surrey and New Westminster called for in Metro Vancouver’s regional growth strategy. Advocates of the idea
said it could increase capacity while directing traffic away from New Westminster streets and allow for better separation of trucks and cars. Only six of 25 alternatives originally studied are being advanced for more evaluation. They include the six-, five- and four-lane replacements of the Pattullo at its current location; rehabilitating the old bridge for either fouror three-lane use; and the Surrey-Coquitlam fourlane bridge with two- or three-lane refurbished Pattullo.

replacements as well as the upgrade-only options got less public support. The consultations consisted of workshops, open houses and polls that received 4,000 responses. The review team will consider the feedback, along with financial and technical information. A refined list of alternatives and further findings will be released later this year. There’s broad agreement something must be done about the 76-yearold bridge, which TransLink warns could topple from a moderate earthquake, river erosion or a ship collision. TransLink has assumed a new $1-billion crossing could be paid for with tolls. But opposition to tolling a new Pattullo, as well as demands to make existing bridge tolls equitable across the region, came through loud and clear in the consultations. Other messages from the public included demands that trucks be banned from the Pattullo, at least at certain times of day, and that something be done about rat-running by commuters through residential neighbourhoods.

Happy 20th birthday, Surrey Beware
RE: SEPT. 11, 2013 – 20 years since Surrey became a city. Twenty years ago, the municipality of Surrey took a big step into the future. The council of the day – Mayor Bob Bose and Couns. Gary Watkins, Marvin Hunt, Judy Higginbotham, Bruce Ralston, Judy Villeneuve, Ed Fomich, Bonnie Shrenk, and myself decided it was time to grow up or a least graduate to adulthood and begin to take our place as one of Canada’s great cities. From country roads and farmers’ fields, to highrises and rapid transit, we have seen the changes. From the City of Parks to the Future Lives Here. It all started in 1879 when Surrey settlers were given letters patent to form a District Municipality and then in 1993 we became a city. I remember cutting and serving the cake in Bear Creek Park and the city celebrations. From the days of reeves and provincial police to a city of culture and parks, Surrey has seen it all. There is so much more to come. I want to thank the people of Surrey who elected me and gave me a chance as a “Surrey boy” to have the honour of being an alderman, then a city councillor, and to be a small part of Surrey becoming a city. We have gone from 165,000 people in the ’80s to a city of a half-a-million now. Challenges

THIS LETTER is in addition to G.F. Saqib’s letter of
Aug. 28: “Pity the bus stops.” Now that the 96 B-line Newton/Guildford is here, the days of overcrowded #321 buses are over. Or so I thought. I notice most of the time when I wait for a bus at 8:30 a.m. at King George and 92 Avenue, I see a lot of B-Line buses passing by both ways with very few passengers on them (not even 30 per cent full,
assert that we’re taxed out, even if we’re paying less taxes or getting new services. By aggressively attacking the organization so that those in favour of a new tax will have to defend it before they can argue in favour of its funding, you disarm the proponents before they even begin a “yes” campaign. Meanwhile, time is running out – 442 days left til Nov. 15 (though it’s possible that the referendum might be held in May or June of 2014) – and we haven’t even got the wording yet, much less leadership for a “yes” vote. One wonders whether the Canadian Taxpayers Federation was instrumental in convincing the premier to go with the referendum idea during the election since it gives them an ideal platform to pursue their agenda. Better yet, blame for a “no” vote can be put on local politicians for their inability to convince the electorate. And the subsequent cutbacks on local transit services as other sources of revenue decline thereby justify another round of criticism of TransLink. It just doesn’t get any better than that.

by the looks of it). The addition of the 96 B-line was suppose to ease crowding of the #321 bus. However, it seems to be not the case as the #321 buses still experience the same problem, especially during rush hour. This could be due to the fact that there was a reduction in the frequency of the #321 bus. So this only proves that riders are spread out on the whole 96 B-line route. Maybe TransLink can consider having the 96
nigh – not,” Letters, Sept. 10. One side says marijuana is much less harmful than tobacco and/or alcohol, while the other side says that such vague general claims are untrue – that cannabis is not at all so innocuous. Plus, with a possible referendum in the near future on legalizing marijuana in the works, we’ll likely even hear/read much more of such polarized perspectives. Although I’ve learned about pot consumption’s effect on my health the hard way, I must admit that research regarding pot’s effect on health that “reveal” a benign or, contrarily, insidious nature of cannabis consumption make me wonder: Who commissioned the research? As cynical as it may sound, I’m one who believes that knowing the interests of the entity that has commissioned the research quite often reveal much about the research “findings.” The research commissioner will typically propagate selfdescriptive adjectives such as “independent,” but this doesn’t necessarily translate into 100-per-cent accuracy, as research methodology can be quite manipulative.

B-line buses service the whole corridor during rush hour. Likewise during these hours they can still lessen the #321 Newton/Surrey Central and maybe even run the White Rock route more. This might also work for the #320. Just my suggestion to possibly make the system more efficient and rider friendly.

Heath authority defends monthly charge by Jeff Nagel
FRASER Health has gone ahead and imposed a controversial $25 a month wheelchair rental fee at its 16 longterm care homes even though the neighbouring Vancouver Coastal Health Authority has decided to hold off. Seniors have until now had free use of wheelchairs in publicly run residential care homes. Fraser Health was the first B.C. health authority to notify residents in June that they would have to pay starting Sept. 1, unless they applied for and received a hardship waiver. At that time it was expected the policy would be consistent province-wide. Vancouver Coastal spokesman Gavin Wilson said residents there were about to also be notified of the change when a public backlash over the idea prompted the health ministry to embark on a review of all allowable fees. “It raised the issue that there are a lot of inconsistencies not only between health authorities but even within health authorities about how these fees are applied,� Wilson said. Fraser Health spokesperson Tasleem Juma said the authority decided to proceed with the fee since more than 1,000 notifications had already been sent to residents in its facilities and some had completed forms or begun applying for hardship waivers. “Rather than create confusion, we decided to say the wheelchair fee remains in place and continue the path of helping those who cannot afford it to go through the waiver process,� she said. Juma said the fee has been “quite well accepted with regard to the residents we’ve had contact with.� NDP leader Adrian Dix said Fraser Health officials should reverse the fee, which won’t actually start to be debited from residents’ accounts until the end

of September. He noted it’s the only B.C. health authority that will now be charging for wheelchair rentals. “It’s not a good idea, it’s regressive and it requires a lot of energy to collect,� Dix said. jnagel@surreyleader.com

Four measles cases confirmed in region Infected patients from Burnaby to Chilliwack have rash-forming disease by Jeff Nagel
A MEASLES outbreak in the Fraser Health region
has prompted a broader warning to residents and health professionals to be on the lookout for
the disease. Public health officials say four confirmed cases of measles have
turned up in Burnaby, Surrey, Abbotsford and Chilliwack and several more patients have symptoms consistent with measles. Fraser Health is investigating to see if the cases are linked. So far there’s no known source of expo-

two doses of measlescontaining vaccine, although many have had just one or none at all. The new cases in Burnaby and Surrey each had one vaccination, which Murti said underscores the case for getting two doses. Advice and vaccinations are being offered to anyone who may have been in contact with those infected, and anyone who is unsure about their measles immunization can get the vaccine for free. There were three cases on Bowen Island or Whistler in June. And in August Fraser Health warned that a measles-infected visitor to Abbotsford Regional Hospital exposed about 60 women and newborns in a post-natal unit. The risk of fatalities as well as significant complications like pneumonia and brain inflammation is why health leaders encourage vaccination. Measles are highly contagious starting one to two days before symptoms show up and continuing until four days after the classic measles rash begins. The droplets from coughs and sneezes can remain airborne in a room for one to two hours after the infectious person has left. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People can spread it without even knowing that theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re ill,â&#x20AC;? Murti said. Anyone who develops measles symptoms â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Â starting with a fever, runny nose, cough and red, watery eyes â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Â is urged to stay home and not expose others. Fraser Health has put up signs in its facilities warning that anyone arriving with those symptoms should advise staff immediately.

Crash victim gets $260K Mother of three ‘partially disabled’ after 2009 incident by Tracy Holmes A PROGRAM MANAGER at Semi-
ahmoo House Society (SHS) who was injured in a crash more than four years ago has been awarded more than $260,000 in damages. The funds to Jo-Ann Ahonen include $120,000 for loss of future earnings, $100,000 in nonpecuniary damages, and $30,000 for future care costs. According to a B.C. Supreme Court judgment released Sept. 4, Ahonen, a 45-year-old mother of three, was injured when her Chevrolet Uplander was struck on King George Boulevard by a Dodge Ram 1500 around 6 a.m. April 17, 2009. The Dodge driver – identified in court documents as Michael Thauli – turned left into Ahonen’s vehicle “without warning.” “There was no intersection
and the plaintiff could not have anticipated the defendant would turn as he did into her direction of travel,” Justice William Smart writes. Both vehicles suffered significant front-end damage and were written off by ICBC. The jaws of life were used to remove Ahonen from her vehicle. Taken to hospital, she was X-rayed and released. Four days later, her doctor noted severe bruising over Ahonen’s chest, lap, knees, shin and ankle, as well as reduced range of motion in her neck. She didn’t return to work until June 1, 2009. Ahonen’s husband, sister, friend, co-workers and various medical professionals gave evidence, including that Ahonen was physically active prior to the crash and employed full-time as
a program manager at SHS. Since the crash, she experiences daily neck pain, regular headaches and anxiety, the judgment states. In addition, she has had to modify her housework and limit her exercise/ recreational activities, and the “prognosis for further recovery of the injuries suffered… is poor,” stated a physiatrist who examined Ahonen. “Ms. Ahonen is probably permanently partially disabled as a result of the injuries.” Smart found Ahonen’s life was “profoundly affected” by the crash, both personally and professionally. Liability in the crash was not disputed, however the award sought was. Chrysler Financial Services Canada Inc. was also named as a defendant. tholmes@peacearchnews.com

n January 1, 2010, laws banning driving and using hand-held electronic communication devices came into effect in BC. Drivers caught “holding, operating, communicating or watching the screen of a handheld electronic communication device” while driving would be fined $167 and three penalty points. As one government source notes: “The banned-while-driving devices include handheld cell phones, personal digital assistants, other hand-held electronic devices that process or compute data, hand-held audio players including iPods and MP3 players, GPS Navigation Systems, hand microphones, and television screens. During 2010, the RCMP issued 32,000 tickets for infractions of these new laws, and tallied 45 of the 104 driving fatalities that occurred in the areas they policed as caused by distracted driving.” In late January 2011, to motivate all drivers to redouble their compliance efforts, the police announced a distracted driving ‘crack down’ during the month of February 2011. They reminded drivers that, “distractions also include activities such as eating, drinking and even putting on makeup.” They emphasized that text messaging may be the most distracting activity of all. In 2011, there were roughly 35,000 convictions for distracted driving in British Columbia; in 2012, 41,000. This year, in early September 2013, the provincial government, The Insurance Corporation of British Columbia and B.C. police chiefs announced a month-long
campaign against distracted driving. It will involve increased enforcement efforts, increased educational efforts and, it seems, public debate between these ‘partners’ about the most effective way to solve the problem. The problem is something that time, more studies and more data gathering is showing to be a higher risk, a more intractable issue than was perhaps initially anticipated when the first International Conference on Distracted Driving was held in Toronto in October 2005. We are told the following: • Talking on a ‘hand-held’ cell phone while driving increases crash risk by a factor of 4. • Texting on a ‘hand-held’ cell phone while driving increases crash risk by a factor of 23. • The latest number of deaths per year in BC attributed to distracted driving is 91. • After speeding and impaired driving, distracted driving is now the third highest cause of fatal crashes in BC. The debate concerns how to better educate BC’s 3.2 million drivers about the dangers of distracted driving and motivate compliance with the laws. Victoria Police Chief, Jamie Graham, reportedly wants higher fines, more demerit points and more sanctions such as the authority to seize cell phones. By all accounts, no such legislation is being drafted. Existing laws are being enforced in novel ways. For example, there is a report that during a recent press event near the Vancouver Courthouse, while announcing a safety campaign, a nearby police officer disguised as a panhandler but wearing a wireless microphone and his colleague, a down-theroad uniformed officer, ticketed over a dozen distracted drivers in less than an hour. …by Cedric Hughes, Barrister & Solicitor with regular weekly contributions from Leslie McGuffin, LL.B.

replace our programs and take over recycling is out of line – most municipalities are really concerned about that.” Cities fear they’ll lose money if they continue providing the service their residents expect under the pricing structure MMBC has offered for recyclables. They can opt to decline a contract and MMBC will contract recycling pickup out as it sees fit, but mayors fear that may be at reduced service levels, with public anger directed to city hall. With those choices unappealing, many cities are expected to instead pick a third option for now that lets them keep running the blue box recycling system without compensation from MMBC. Keeping the status quo is less than ideal, Richmond Mayor Malcolm Brodie said, because the industries responsible, not cities, are supposed to pay the costs to collect and recycle packaging under the government’s plan. Effectively, their residents will pay twice – once on their property taxes and again at stores because retailers will build their costs of supporting MMBC into prices. Both mayors predict many cities will reject the deal as offered now and demand action from provincial government ministers at next week’s Union of B.C. Municipalities convention, which opens on the day of MMBC’s deadline. Prince George has already refused MMBC’s contract offer, as has Coquitlam, where Mayor Richard Stewart warned in a letter to Polak that “Coquitlam council is gravely concerned that no reputable collector would concede to these conditions and this would inevitably lead to an unacceptable degradation of the existing quality of service.” One objection is MMBC’s requirement that loads of recyclables contain no more than three per cent contamination of other materials. See CONTRACT / Page 19
Thursday, September 12, 2013 Surrey/North Delta Leader 19
Contract: Unappealing fine print From page 18 Several cities say their blue box pick-up runs above that level of contamination, meaning MMBC can hit them with heavy fines of $5,000 per truckload. Port Coquitlam estimated that could add up to $3 million per year in their city, although MMBC says fines will be capped at 24 per year, or $120,000. But Brodie, a lawyer and the chair of Metro Vancouver’s zero waste committee, said some of the fine print in the offer is even worse. “MMBC can change the terms of the contract unilaterally,” Brodie noted. “They can assign the contract so we’re not even dealing with MMBC. Those are the sorts of provisions that make it very untenable for us.” If MMBC takes over, cities face the prospect of terminating contracts with either their unionized staff or an outside contractor, and potentially being on the hook for unrecoverable capital costs for trucking fleets and other infrastructure. Brodie said it may be workable in more rural areas of B.C. where no blue box pickup exists, suggesting the program be first piloted in those regions ahead of urban areas. MMBC managing director Allen Langdon rejects claims the proposed contracts short-change cities on collection costs, adding programs in 23 cities were reviewed to determine fair pricing. “We think those costs, based on our research, provide for compensation for an efficient and effective system,” Langdon said. He said cities that don’t like how the system unfolds can terminate their contracts without penalty on six months notice, or opt for dispute resolution. Langdon also defended the short notice for cities to sign up, saying timelines
are tight to identify collectors and line up processors in time for a May 19 launch.
Newspapers balk at MMBC plan IT’S NOT JUST cities
resisting the new recycling system for packaging coming to B.C. The print newspaper industry – which is supposed to be part of the expanded blue box system – is also at odds with MMBC after a falling out last year over how they would pay their share of the costs of collecting old news-
papers and flyers. Newspapers Canada president John Hinds said the newspaper firms originally intended to make their contribution through in-kind advertising. But he said MMBC has since demanded they pay 75 per cent in cash – potentially draining $6 million a year from the struggling print newspaper industry, which has already slashed staffing to cut costs. Newspapers Canada represents the three main publishing groups – community
newspaper publishers Black Press (owner of this newspaper) and Glacier Media, as well as Postmedia, owner of the Vancouver Sun and The Province. Hinds said the entire industry pulled out of MMBC last year and is re-evaluating its options, which could include having newspaper carriers take back newsprint for recycling, or hiring other contractors to create a new collection or depot system. “Our real option is to do our own system,” Hinds said. “We have a
very sophisticated oneway delivery system that nearly goes to every house in B.C.” He said MMBC has sought to shift costs See STORY / Page 20

Papers: In talks with MMBC From page 19
to newspaper firms because it’s “very much biased” in favour of huge retailers like Walmart and Loblaw and other multinational producers of packaged goods that are solely interested in minimizing their outlay, not best environmental practices for B.C. Hinds said newspaper publishing representatives continue talks with MMBC while lobbying the province. A splintering of the system with newspaper firms trying to retrieve newsprint could have wider implications, because newspaper is among the more profitable materials to recycle, unlike some other packaging materials. The estimated cost of MMBC’s system is $110 million but Hinds warns that could run higher, especially if it leads to inefficient parallel systems being run by MMBC, some cities and perhaps newspaper groups. “The sad part about this is you’re going to recreate a whole new system,” Hinds said. “You’re going to dismantle a system that works. You’re not going to save the taxpayer any money. And you’re going to spend $100 million in industry money that’s going to be taken out of the pockets of consumers.” MMBC aims to raise overall recycling rates in B.C. from 53 per cent to 75 per cent.

Waterside living in Yaletown with Pacific Point
By Kerry Vital
Yaletown is one of Vancouver’s most popular and vibrant neighbourhoods, with some of the best shopping, dining and recreation in the city. Now Bosa Development is staking its claim in the area with Pacific Point, a former rental building that Nat Bosa purchased and turned into luxury condominiums. Every suite has been completely renovated, with new appliances, new decor and new plumbing.
“It’s rare that Nat Bosa puts his name to something,” says George Wong of Magnum Projects. “This is one of those rare opportunities. This is the first thing that has caught his eye in a long time ... he fell in love with the location.” There are 214 condos in the building, ranging from 450 to 1,680 square feet. “Response has been overwhelming for Pacific Point,” says Bosa Sales and Marketing Manager Lisa Murrell. “There simply isn’t anything like it in Vancouver.”
Homeowners will enjoy the amazing views of False Creek, George Wainborn Park, David Lam Park, English Bay and downtown Vancouver, as well as the easy access to everything Yaletown has to offer. Restaurants, nightlife and shopping are right on the doorstep, as well as the seawall and transit. Homes are move-in ready and start at $344,900. For more information, visit www.pacificpointcondos.com, call 604-6850855 or visit the sales centre at 1323 Homer Street any day except Fridays, from noon to 5 p.m.

There is no shortage of things to do in Vancouver, from shopping on Robson Street, above, or Main Street, bottom right, cycling on the Stanley Park SeaWall, top right, or going for a swim in the pool at Kitsilano Beach, middle right.
Vancouver tops for living and playing
By Kerry Vital
Vancouver was recently voted as one of the top three most livable cities in the world, and it’s not hard to see why. With tons of amazing restaurants, gorgeous scenery, plenty of opportunities for shopping and beautiful homes, Vancouver truly has everything you can possibly imagine. One of Vancouver’s most well-known landmarks is Stanley Park, the 400-hectare park that recently celebrated its 125th birthday and has been designated a national historic site. With it’s nearly nine kilometres
of SeaWall, several beaches and acres upon acres of green space, Stanley Park is an outdoor enthusiast’s dream. It also holds several dining spots, the Vancouver Aquarium, Malkin Bowl, a pitch-and-putt golf course, a pool and a water spray park, among other attractions. If indoor pursuits are more your forte, you’ll find plenty to love in Vancouver with its array of arts and cultural opportunities. From the Queen Elizabeth Theatre to the Vancouver Art Gallery to the University of British Columbia Museum of Anthropology, you’ll find plenty of options for whatever you’re in the mood for. Sports fans aren’t left out either with the Vancouver Canucks at Rogers Arena or the B.C. Lions or Vancouver Whitecaps at B.C. Place. Perhaps some fine dining is on the menu; a wish that Vancouver has no problem fulfilling. Picking a great restaurant can be as easy as choosing a neighbourhood and taking a walk around. You may find your new favourite dining spot completely by accident.
Speaking of neighbourhoods, each one has its own style. Kitsilano, with its trendy shops, dining and the famous Kits Beach, is a haven for healthy living. Among the homes here is Kits360, a condominium development that gives residents access to every amenity that Kits has to offer along with gorgeous homes. If sophisticated living is what you crave, you’ll find the perfect home at Bosa Development’s Pacific Point in Yaletown. Pacific Point has gorgeous views of False Creek and downtown Vancouver, making it a spectacular place to live if you want to take advantage of the vibrant lifestyle in the neighbourhood. When you need a bit of retail therapy, you’ll find plenty of places to exercise your credit card. From Granville Island with its eclectic mix of independent shops and the Public Market to the trendy South Granville area to Robson Street and its mix of high-end and budget shops, including the brand-new Canadian flagship Victoria’s Secret store, there are a variety of options for any taste.

Renney said wrestling was done a major disservice when the IOC voted to kick it out the Games just months prior, and the softball/ baseball bid suffered as a result. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We just got caught in a political tug of war,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If any-

Khaira: AHL an option for prospect From page 31
Suiting up in an Oilers uniform for the Young Stars weekend, Khaira got off to a slow start but was pleased with his play in the end. He finished the tournament with one goal in three games played, and his six shots on goal tied for third on the team. “My first game, I thought was a slow start for me. In the first period, I thought I was slow and getting beat in battles and on face-offs,” he said after Saturday’s
loss to the Jets. “But as the tournament went on, I started getting better and feeling more comfortable.” Khaira, unlike Petan, can be sent to the American Hockey Hockey League as a 19-year-old after the main camp now underway in Edmonton. The Oilers also have the option of asking Khaira to play a season of major junior hockey with the Everett Silvertips, who acquired his playing rights in the offseason. “It’s too early to say right now,” he said when asked where he
expects to play. “It’s wherever Edmonton feels I would develop the most.” Having moved from Junior A hockey in the BCHL to the professional ranks in just two seasons, Khaira has had to make an adjustment. “It’s a different kind of game,” he said of the competition in Penticton. “Here, everyone can move the puck and everyone is strong. Every player is here for a reason. They’re all good at what they do and they all have a role to play.”

Both teens are members of 2812 Royal Canadian Army Cadet Corps, which is based in Surrey. During the summer, more than 1,200 Army, Sea, and Air Cadets from western Canada spent up to six weeks in the Okanagan Valley training centre, expanding the training they receive at their home corps, developing new skills and forming friendships. Liu and other cadets in Bravo Company enrolled in band courses focus almost exclusively on music training to improve their skills with their chosen instruments. Bravo Company also marched in community parades in Oliver and Penticton and performed several public concerts in Vernon. Cadets enrolled in the Pipes and Drums courses also spent many hours practicing Highland dancing, which they demonstrated to the cadets at VACSTC during a band concert in the final week. Bewli attended the three-week Basic Marksmanship Instructor Course, where cadets learned the principles of Army Cadet Marksmanship, and the skills necessary to conduct a summer biathlon. Cadets were also taught the marksmanship skills to improve their results in competitions.
