Pitching in Adam Keizer and his son Quinn pick up litter along the South Alouette River, by Harris Road and Menzies Crossing in Pitt Meadows, on Sunday as part of the annual shoreline cleanup. Volunteers collected three large bags of garbage and two of recyclable materials within a seven-kilometre stretch.

A court-ordered payment of $54,000 for Water Act infractions by a farm company indirectly affiliated with the Aquilini Investment Group of companies in Pitt Meadows was paid on Sept. 13. The same day, the Maple RidgePitt Meadows News reported that the payment $54,000 to the Habitat Conservation Trust Foundation was overdue. The payment was to have been made in January. Company spokesman John Negrin said on Sept. 12 that he believed the conservation payment portion had been paid, and would look into it. “Upon learning that it was not paid, we promptly paid it,” said Negrin, who is president of Aquilini Renewable Energy.

Rebecca ‘Beckie’ Dyer, 19, and her boyfriend, Johnny De Oliveira, 21, died around midnight Oct. 19. 2010, when a Toyota driven by Andelina Kristina Hecimovic skidded sideways over a concrete median, flipped and landed on top of their Suzuki Swift. Hecimovic was driving in the right-turnonly lane when she crossed the intersection of Harris Road and Lougheed Highway on a red light. An expert estimated she hit the concrete median at a speed of between 100 or 110 km/hr.

Hecimovic took the stand in her defence during the trial and testified she was heading to her boyfriend’s house after a trying day working as a nurse at Eagle Ridge Hospital in Port Moody, where a suicidal young man vomited on her. Choking back tears, Hecimovic told the court she was thinking about her shift and suddenly smelled something odd as she approached the intersection. When she looked at her scrubs she noticed vomit on her shirt and burst into tears. She was trying to wipe the tears off her face and focus on the road when she realized she had run a red light.

Paws 4 Stories, helping kids read S tor y by Phil Melnychuk

Phil Melnychuk/THE NEWS

Buttons is helping kids read at Pitt Meadows library.

hey give seniors a lift and a smile and help lower the blood of pressure of hospital patients. Our canine companions can also help kids learn to read. For Buttons, presumably named because he’s as cute as one, the job of reading tutor comes naturally. All he has to do is sit quietly, and listen to kids read books out loud. By doing so, he’s an uncritical audience who won’t correct mispronunciation or grammar. That instills confidence in kids who are reluctant to read. With more confidence there’s willingness to read by themselves – and the reading gap can be bridged. “People have been reading to dogs for a while,” said librarian Susan Redmond, who started the Paws 4 Stories program in Pitt Meadows Public Library in February after being approached by the St. John Ambulance Therapy Dogs. The program resumes in September for six weeks. “Dogs have a very soothing effect. “It helps make reading seem less intimidating than it is when you’re reading to a person who you know can read better than you.

“You can be come quite flummoxed by that. But they know dogs can’t read so it doesn’t really matter. The dog just gets to listen.” Although it was rolled out as a pilot program it’s drawn good response from parents. After completing the weekly program for six weeks, students can advance two reading levels, Redmond said. Students are usually in Grade 2 or 3 and are referred to the program by local teachers. Spend a bit of time with Buttons and it’s easy to see why he’s good at his job. He loves the attention and the pats and laughs from the kids and hams up his role of entertainer is good at reading people’s different personalities. “This is Buttons, in all his glory,” says owner John McDonald as the dog is swarmed by kids during a library visit. He and his wife Yvonne, who does most of the training, offered Buttons’ services. “He’s a very happy, go-lucky dog.” According to the Therapy Dogs International website, kids with reading difficulties lack confidence in reading out loud to the class. But when reading to a dog, “The child relaxes, pats the attentive dog, and focuses on the reading.” Each reading session takes place for 15 minutes, followed by a five-minute break.

Buttons does that for four kids, putting in about an hour-long shift, then is done for the day. It’s not easy for a dog to be on his best behaviour so it has to be done in short stints, says McDonald. “It’s very tiring, being petted.” Buttons, a Lhasa-Apso – Szhitsu cross, also makes calls at the Ridge Meadows Hospital and Willow Manor which can push his work week up to four or five hours. “Any place he visits, he reckons he rules the roost.” Before a dog joins the therapy program they must be evaluated to see if they’re suitable and trained to ensure they can stand being on good behaviour for long periods of time. The program has grown to the point there’s now 53 volunteer dogs based out of the Ridge Meadows St. John Ambulance therapy dog program. “We just have all breeds. It’s the temperament of the dog that’s important,” says McDonald. “Its just something my wife and I really wanted to do. Our dog has such a positive attitude with kids and he loves doing it. As long he loves doing it, we’ll keep doing it.”

BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND

Ian Christiansen now knows the dismay of being surprised by a larger-than-expected bill, and like others living in Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows, has learned how quickly bridge tolls can add up. He recently received a $5,000 bill for Golden Ears tolls. He knew in the back of his mind a bill would be coming. His work takes him back and forth across the bridge several times a day, as he pressure washes and cleans the exterior of houses on both sides of the Fraser River. He crosses with a motorcycle, and regularly gets his invoices. But his work pickup has never been billed, despite the fact that he has a registered transponder. “The onus is on them to send me a bill. I’ll just wait until I get it,” was his thinking. After four years of free rides, he even joked with friends that he would one day get his comeuppance. Still, the amount of that first-ever bill was overwhelming, so much that Christiansen has

TransLink won’t offer a break on the bill. asked TransLink to cut him some slack. But with insurance due in December, the message he’s hearing is that ICBC will not renew his insurance until he pays $4,980.63. “I’m not saying I don’t owe them the money,” he clarifies. But he wants a breakdown of his bill. He would like the interest removed. And he wants to make payment arrangements. “I’ll go on a payment plan, and pay it off – they don’t want to talk to me,” he said. “This has been going on for years, what’s the rush now?” He spoke with a lawyer, who told him that TransLink has the legal right to collect for six years worth of debts. “I owe them the money, I’ll pay them the money, but let’s be reasonable,” he said. However, “They can’t expect me to pay interest when they don’t bill me.”

The interest portion is $90.87. The cost of a trip across the bridge is $3 for a car or pickup that is registered and has a transponder. The cost for an unregistered vehicle on a pay-as-you-go basis is $4.25 per trip. TransLink spokesperson Sany Zein would not comment on an individual account, but said TransLink is proactive in notifying customers to pay their Golden Ears Bridge tolls, through monthly invoices. When there is an outstanding balance, two notices are mailed to the customer. Errors in addresses, customers moving, customers not checking email accounts, or customers not realizing they have registered for email statements rather than paper mail are some of the common reasons why outstanding balances are not received by customers, said Zein.

About four per cent of Golden Ears Bridge toll revenue is outstanding. Christiansen’s is not the largest bill that the company has issued, but the company declined to say what that amount was. It is one of the largest. “QuickPass works closely with customers to resolve issues or queries related to statements and charges. There is also a dispute process for customers who disagree with charges. Customers can complete a dispute form, and the QuickPass office will review each file and the circumstances,” said Zein. “If QuickPass can identify an issue with its billing process or the toll system, QuickPass on a case-by-case basis may reverse some interest charges that have accrued on the account. However, QuickPass is not responsible for the errors by customers in providing mailing address or email information, as it can only bill based on the information provided by the customer. As such, the full outstanding balances are owed to QuickPass. QuickPass will not reverse legitimate toll charges.” Despite the debt, Christiansen has no problem with user-pay bridges. “I love the bridge. I went over it, I’ll pay the bill, no problem.”

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;No intention not to payâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Payment from front

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Upon learning that it was not paid, we promptly paid it,â&#x20AC;? said Negrin, president of Aquilini Renewable Energy. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was never our intention not to pay that. In fact, we had negotiated with the Crown to settle this incident and make restitution like that â&#x20AC;&#x201C; toward an environmental cause.â&#x20AC;? Negrin explained that the $1,000 fine portion was paid promptly because it was handled through the courts, and the company received documents and instructions on how it should be handled. The $54,000 payment was arranged by Crown counsel and the defendantâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lawyer, but there was no restitution file generated in the courts to track the payment, or give instructions on how it should be paid. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was a miscommunication between the parties,â&#x20AC;? said Negrin. He added that in no way â&#x20AC;&#x153;has the organization or family looked to avoid the fine, or not fulfill its obligations under the negotiated settlement.â&#x20AC;? The numbered company, 374917 BC Ltd., pleaded guilty to an offence under the Water Act. Crown entered a stay of proceedings in charges against Elisa, Paulo, Roberto and Francesco Aquilini, as well as other related companies. The charges first arose in 2009, after the company pumped four to five million litres of water from the North Alouette River onto berry crops that were threatened by drought, before it received final government approval. The company later received a water licence for the same property. Negrin said 374917 is â&#x20AC;&#x153;a numbered company thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s registered under

the GERI [Golden Eagle Ranch Inc.] farm group.â&#x20AC;? Golden Eagle is part of the Aquilini Investment Group, the same company that owns the Vancouver Canucks. The Habitat Conservation Trust Foundation will now award the funds to a successful applicant. Foundation CEO Brian Springinotic said the cheque arrived Tuesday, and his group will conduct a science-based review of proposals to restore or enhance wetland or riparian habitat in the area where the offence took place. Negrin also responded to criticism of another application by Golden Eagle to pump water from Blaney Creek, to be used for irrigating 200 acres of young cranberry plants. He wanted to assure the public and local environmental groups that the company is diligent, and developing a water management master plan in consultation with the Ministry of Environment and City of Pitt Meadows. That plan will see the company record and report all water usage. Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s more, he said of all the farms that pump surface water for crops in Pitt Polder, he believes Golden Eagle is on the leading edge of water conservation. In addition to only pumping at high tide, when the water system is fully charged, the company uses a Hortau irrigation management system. It uses sensors in the soil under the plants to measure the moisture there, and combines this information with weather reporting to determine when to water. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We predict and apply only the water thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s needed,â&#x20AC;? said Negrin. Golden Eagle uses a drip irrigation system on

the blueberries to use less water, and a water recapture system that recycles 70 per cent of the water used for irrigation. The system, which also measures nutrients in the soil, cost more than $2 million in the first phase, and Negrin says it makes Golden Eagle a participant in leading edge practices known in the industry as precision farming.

to the trust that resulted in a delay, which was rectified last week, as soon as the matter came to light. Again, we acknowledge that this payment was not a personal obligation of any member of the Aquilini family. Moreover, we are satisfied that there was no basis to impute any intention to ignore or delay the payment in question that can be fairly attributed to any member of the Aquilini family.

The Maple Ridge-Pitt Meadows News wishes to apologize to members of the Aquilini family for a series of recent publications that attributed to family members an intention to evade their legal responsibilities in relation to a Water Act infraction in 2009. The articles in question stated that the Aquilini family did not pay a courtordered â&#x20AC;&#x153;fine.â&#x20AC;? In fact, the $1,000 fine was paid promptly on the same day it was imposed. Moreover, the fine was not the respon-

sibility of any member of the Aquilini family. Its payment was the responsibility of a numbered company, 374917 B.C. Ltd., that is only indirectly affiliated with the Aquilini Investment Group of companies. The other obligation upon 374917 B.C. Ltd. that arose from the court order was technically not a fine, but an agreed upon condition to make a payment of $54,000 to the Habitat Conservation Trust Foundation, the trustee appointed under the Wildlife Act.Â Â We have now been advised that there was a failure to communicate the required protocol to make that payment

THE NEWS/opinion News Views

Paying it back It’s September – the start of another term for postsecondary students. And listen closely. That’s the sound of students racking up thousands in debt to pay for tuition, books, supplies, transportation and living expenses. With the average post-secondary student now accumulating $27,000 in loans, according to the Canadian Federation of Students, higher learning is becoming more and more out of reach. Such debt doesn’t giving graduates solid financial footing. What’s the solution? Let’s start with a conversation, such as the one happening south of the border right now. One so innovative that policy-makers in Canada should take note. This past summer the Oregon legislature agreed to study a trial program that would allow students to attend state universities with no money down. In other words, no tuition. The catch is students must contribute a set portion of their future income to the program – essentially paying for their debt. The “Pay Forward, Pay Back” pilot program would replace the current system of tuition and fees. Students would sign a binding contract to pay the State of Oregon, or the institution, a certain percentage of their adjusted gross income for a specified number of years following graduation. Lawmakers in Oregon were unanimous in agreeing to the study. And good on them. The benefits of post-secondary education are many, and essential for many of the careers students want. Yet the prospect of being saddled with a crushing debt load for 10 years – the average length of time for a student to pay back loans – is startling. Student loans can be a heavy burden for individuals and the economy. Much debate has already occurred over the Oregon approach. It’s not perfect. For example, the program would only cover tuition and fees, not rent, transportation, food and other expenses. The pay-back period could also last over 20 years, and there’s likely a significant up-front cost for government. But the cost of studying the idea is no doubt worthwhile. Indeed, it removes financial lenders – and their interest and fees – from the equation. It also removes the penalty on students who choose to pursue lower-paid professions. Government doesn’t have more money to boost the budgets of post-secondary institutions. Students are expected to take the hit. It might not be for everyone, but the Pay Forward, Pay Back program just might give the right students the right help at the right time. – Black Press

Harper’s Sir John A. MacDonald speech Co m m ent ar y by Kolby Solinsky

ou’ll have to forgive his grin. He doesn’t know any better, and he won’t make an effort to learn. Stephen Harper’s speech in West Kelowna that – while aiming to centre on the country’s economics – will really be remembered (if at all) for his pot-targeted stand-up routine. The jokes received laughter and applause from those in attendance, but they were his contemporaries and his fanbase and they came to see him speak. I mean, hey, even It’s Complicated had the IHOP crowd giggling. But, you’ll have to forgive Mr. Harper and all the misplaced comic wannabes like him, because he and they don’t know they’re on the wrong side of history – and they don’t care because they don’t have to. To insinuate that Sir John A. MacDonald would have somehow been on Harper’s anti-marijuana reform side – “Sir John A. spoke to British Columbians about the things that matter: About jobs and prosperity, about Canada united and strong, about economic growth, not grow-ops,” Harper said – shows just how little the Prime Minister knows about the country’s history, or how little attention he intends to properly pay to it. MacDonald served as Canada’s first Prime Minister from 1878 to 1891. His departure from the position – by death – predates Canada’s outlawing of cannabis by a good 18 years. (Drug prohibition in Canada began with the Opium Act of 1908, which was intro-

uestion of the week:

duced by future PM William Lyon Mackenzie King. King was a federal Liberal (not a Progressive Conservative, like Harper) who laid the groundwork for Canada’s welfare state with the motto, “Help those who cannot help themselves,” but also a convenient racist who happily watched over British Columbia’s internment of 22,000 Japanese-Canadian citizens during the Second World War. There’s really no pattern with this stuff, so maybe our current heffe should stop trying to create one.) If Harper really believes marijuana usage is some kind of moral vice, he should probably have read up on MacDonald’s, because the man drank like a fish during Frosh Week for his entire tenure, and you probably already know alcohol would become illegal in Canada and the United States by the end of the First World War. MacDonald may not have cared about grow-ops, but he did love his grown hops. (I’m sorry. I’m not a comedian, either.) And, while we’re on this theme of historical pinpointing, MacDonald wanted Canada to be a highly centralized unitary state. In his mind’s eye, Ottawa would have dominant power over all its provinces, and MacDonald would be at the top of the heap. This isn’t exactly the kind of willy-nilly power balance praised by Conservatives or those who see themselves as residents of the right, is it? Personally, I can’t help but cringe and slam my fists into the wall when I see someone like our Prime Minister – who heads, perhaps, the only economically knowledgeable federal party in Canada – destroy his credibility because he can’t see

Should Maple Ridge have two fire chiefs? Yes: 4% – No: 96% (54 votes)

24 hours ahead. Then again, maybe he’s just not willing to put up that fight. His lines have already been drawn, and they’re sandbagging up. On gay rights, on marijuana reform, and on too many social issues that would be a bigger deal if it weren’t for Canada’s relatively stable economy since 2008 (globally speaking), Harper and his Conservatives seem to be chasing their American counterparts more and more every day, desperately clinging to the Tea Party’s bumper while their chins whack the road. (And, let’s not forget about George Washington and Thomas Jefferson – the founders of the founders of all founders – who personally grew and sold hemp from their own fields. Jefferson also kind of hated organized religion. How’s that for a twist?) In an effort to re-establish itself as the authority, Canada’s Conservative Party is starting to sound more and more like that broken record we all know and all fear ourselves becoming – like the Johnny Unitas haircutted types who were whiffed into extinction in 1965, like the 70-yearold who bangs his cane on his roof when music’s playing too loud above him, and like the Oxycontin addict who tears a strip of birth control advocates in the 48 states below us. If our prime minister took a second to really understand what he was saying and if he really cared whether he was right or wrong, he could only help his case and help ours, too. Then again, it’s not like it’s really going to matter. Kolby Solinsky is a Black Press online editor.

The News/letters Dike hunters show poor ethics

Editor, The News: Once again, it’s that time of year when walking on the dike one hears the sound of shotguns firing – a sound that shatters the peace and quiet of a pleasant walk. I can hear the hunters saying right now, “You bleeding heart anti-hunting activists!” True, but I have another purpose in mind. Last year when my husband and I were walking with our dog on the dike two hunters were on the parallel dike. One hunter shot at a passing duck, either wounding it or killing it. The other hunter asked him if he was going to go and get it, to which the hunter who had shot the duck replied no. When speaking with someone this morning on the dike about the hunting, he told us that last year he had a mortally wounded duck land on his car. He was so upset that all he could do was drive away, shaking. He said it was too severely injured to even consider taking it to the vet. What is the point to hunting? Are you doing it to stock your freezer, or are you doing it just to shoot your gun for the fun of killing something? My husband and I have watched these ducks and geese from hatchlings to adults. We have watched the loving care the parents have taken of their babies, probably far better care than most humans do. Geese mate for life. If their mate gets shot they will not mate again. It is heartbreaking to see a solo goose flying along the dike honking for his or her mate. The parents are very protective and stay with the goslings and ducklings even after they are adults. So, hunters, when you shoot those ducks and geese for pleasure and leave them lying in the field dead or mortally wounded in agony, remember that you are killing someone’s mother or father or daughter or son. Do you really take that much pleasure knowing you are destroying a family? Barb Stevens

Riverview was an asset Editor, The News: Last week my wife Sheri wrote a her opinion about reopening Riverview and some services she believes Riverview provided. Somehow my name ended up as the author. I have worked with the mentally ill for 31 years. Not with the clients in Riverview Hospital, but with the criminally insane. I will say that we did take advantage of all the services that Riverview could provide to our clients, such as the dentist office, x-ray department, physiotherapy department, podiatrist, optometrists, North lawn consultation – specialist doctors, North one Medical unit, their pharmacy, and a lab. These are only the departments I personally took my guys to. I’m sure there were plenty more on the Riverview grounds. As for the Riverview patients, yes my wife was correct that on the beautiful 244 acres that are left, the patients had a recreation hall with coffee shop and bowling alleys for socializing, a bank, a tucks shop (store), woodworking shop, pastoral support and many forms of therapy and counselling. The days of lock-up and throw away the key have been gone for a long time now. Even back in the day you did not have to do that at Riverview when you had a buffer zone of hundreds of acres. Group homes do have their place for some clients, but in my opinion Riverview did work and was a strong community with services, jobs, social interaction and support. Now is the government willing to give back to the people some of the most beautiful and expensive real estate in the province? – That’s the question! Steve Tretick Maple Ridge

Mike Salo operates Fraser Valley Metal Exchange in Maple Ridge and has been charged with bylaw infractions.

THE NEWS/files

Metal bylaw is heavy-handed Editor, The News: Re: Scrap metal bylaw too onerous, says dealer (The News, Sept. 19). Mike Salo of Fraser Valley Metal Exchange hit the nail on the head when he stated that industry input was disregarded when the scrap metal bylaw was drafted. After years of working with the RCMP and CPR railway police, in which he recovered substantial merchandise, he is now expected to catalogue daily, store tons of incoming metal for seven days

and report it to the RCMP. Obviously other metal exchange businesses are unable to comply with these standards because they would be forced out of business. Mr. Salo’s operation has always been in compliance with the Ministry of Public Safety and Solicitor Generals Department. I’m sure a compromise can be reached, possibly giving Mr. Salo more time to catalogue his inventory, perhaps. I think Liz Holitzki, Maple Ridge

director of licenses, permits, and bylaws, needs to spend a day at the scrap exchange sorting metal before she attempts to slap a fine on Mr. Salo’s business, which is providing local jobs and paying taxes – which, by the way, helps to pay Ms. Holitzki’s wages and benefits. Perhaps an advisory committee to the bylaw department, comprised of citizens and business owners, would be in order here. Grover Telford Maple Ridge

Safety of Hammond residents not a priority Editor, The News: Hammond ignored or forgotten, I’m writing out of frustration and a need to let the community know that it appears to the residents of the Port Hammond area don’t seem to matter to the district staff or council. A few years ago there was a meeting with Michael Eng, myself and Frank Quinn in regards to the traffic and accidents at the corner of Maple Crescent and Lorne Avenue, to see if there was anything that could be done to improve the situation there. It was suggested that a roundabout could be put there, but was quickly told it was too expensive to do, so we suggested a four-way stop. And they said they would go and take a look at it. We also requested a traffic count be done on Maple Crescent and the 203rd Street area to determine how much traffic was com-

ing from Golden Ears Bridge and other directions. The results of the traffic count stated they was no problem and nothing was done. After that, the president of the Hammond elementary PAC group, with input from the RCMP and school staff and myself, met with municipal staff at the district hall with a stop sign proposal that might help the situation. District staff said they would take the matter to the safety committee, and after a very long time of not hearing from it, I spoke to district staff again and was told a stop sign was not warranted. The same group, after some time, then asked to have the district look at putting a sidewalk down Lorne Avenue, from Maple Crescent to Princess Street, to make it safer for the children to walk down that

road. The district suggested expanding the pavement on Lorne Ave. for the kids to walk on, not a proper sidewalk for them, and we have not heard anything since about either of the requests, so I guess the safety of our residents is not a priority to them because staff won’t answer any questions about these issues. Maybe it will take another accident at either Maple Cresent or Lorne Ave. to get them to consider the concerns of the residents of Hammond. Or maybe they will continue to build traffic roundabouts at places like 232nd Street and Fern Cresesnt, where the traffic is not as high as it is in our corridors. We have also requested the upgrade of the S-curve between 115th Avenue and Westview Street for some time, and the only thing that has been done was

to clear the hedge on the west side so you can see the speeding cars and trucks coming the other way and be able to avoid them. The other item is that the Hammond Area Plan has been removed from the council matrix without a hint of when it will brought back for disccusion. But going ahead are rezonings that are eliminating our heritage building, which creates the atmosphere of the older community. District staff all seem to forget the govenment of Maple Ridge started on the McIver farm on Sept. 12, 1874 with the first council meeting and they have been trying to eliminate the community every since in favour of other areas of Maple Ridge. I only wish they would get off the pot and do something. Eric Phillips Maple Ridge

threatened her with a fake gun will spend the next four years in prison. Ian James William Campbell was sentenced Wednesday to five years

by M o ni s ha M a r tin s staff reporter

been in custody since he was arrested in Vancouver on Jan. 22 by members of the Vancouver Police Department’s Emergency Response Team and Ridge Meadows RCMP’s Street Enforcement Unit. His arrest came after a public appeal by police for tips in the violent abduction. The ordeal for the teen began around 8 p.m. on Jan. 19, when Campbell approached her outside the Fox’s Reach Pub during a work break. The court heard Campbell told the teen he needed help to start his broken down Cadillac sedan. The girl went to help him, but when Campbell got into her car, he pulled out what she believed was a gun. He yelled: “If you don’t cooperate, I will blow your ... brains out.” Campbell then forced her to drive out of the mall in her red 1993 Honda Civic to a secluded area on Blackstock Street, where he punched and strangled her repeatedly. Campbell also tied the teen’s hands with a dog leash and smashed her cell phone. Badly beaten, the teen still managed to fight Campbell, ripping a gold cross off him during the struggle. She escaped to a nearby house. Campbell apologized to the teen in court Wednesday. At a sentencing hearing last week, his lawyer Sandy Ross stressed that Campbell has been remorseful from the beginning. He wrote a letter to the teen and her family soon after his arrest. A crack addict, Campbell blamed the drug for fuelling his crime spree. On the day he abducted the teen, he had been smoking crack all day and was extremely paranoid. Campbell believed he was being chased by drug dealers and thought the teen was involved with them. Campbell has an extensive criminal record that begins in 2002, when he was a still a youth. It includes convictions for dangerous driving, assault and fleeing from police. Court records show Campbell came from a dysfunctional family and spent his early years in foster care. In 2008, he was sentenced to four and a half years in prison for stealing a car and leading police on a high-speed pursuit that ended with the death of passenger. At that time, Campbell was part of a group of Surrey teens who called themselves “Cop Killing Villains.”

More density in Albion pitched Council considers smaller lot sizes by Nei l Corbe tt staff reporter

Existing base density would remain in place and continue to be an option for developers, without extra cost. The proposed bylaw says the Albion Area Plan strives to balance residential development with environmentally sensitive areas and diverse housing styles. The area in question stretches from 240th Street as a western boundary, east to past 249th Street, and from Hill Avenue in the south, north to 113A Avenue. The bylaw spells out that in zoning where the base density is a lot area of 2,000 square meters, the new density bonus would allow a minimum lot area of 557m. To achieve this, the minimum lot width would be halved from 30m to 15m, and the lot depth from 40m to 27m. In zones where the minimum lot size is 557 square metres, the density bonus would al-

low 371m square, with a minimum lot width of 12m and depth of 24m. Other density bonuses for apartments and townhouses in the area are also spelled out. The maximum increase in the number of lots that could result from new developments, mostly north of 108th Avenue, would be 280. Nothstein said after the meeting that opportunities to build larger subdivisions like those in eastern Maple Ridge have become rare in the Lower Mainland. “These sorts of large development areas don’t exist anymore,” he said. “There’s a bit of a sweet spot in Maple Ridge.” Council will make a decision about the proposed planning changes at its Sept. 24th meeting. Albion would be a test area, and the density bonus could be applied to future development in other areas.

Smaller lots, more houses, and more developer cash for amenities are slated for the Albion area, if a new bylaw gets through Maple Ridge council. A public hearing was held on Tuesday evening in council chambers about a density bonus for land developers, which would include an amenities fee of $3,100 for every lot taking advantage of smaller minimum sizes. The money would be used for trails, parks and community gathering places. Craig Ruthven went to the podium twice, saying he represented the group Our Neighbourhoods, which was formed a year ago to engage the public in development and planning issues, and address concerns about missing amenities. Ruthven said he has conducted a survey showing 60 per cent of respondents either oppose or have serious misgivings about smaller lots. He said people have concerns about increased traffic in a congested area. He added that he personally finds it “concerning and disappointing,” that staff is raising the issue of density bonusing “at the 11th hour.” Jackie Chow also expressed concerns about increased traffic. She characterized the Albion area as urban sprawl, in need of nearby schools, transit and shopping to serve residents. She said the area is “100 per cent car dependent,” and increasing density without improving transit is out of synch with the district’s goal of reducing carbon emissions by one-third by the year 2020. Raymond Nothstein of Wesbild Holdings told council the company supports the amenity fee, “if council and staff use this money to create something in the short term.” Wesbild, which developed some 1,300 homes in the Foothills at Burke Mountain in Coquitlam, is to develop 46 lots in Albion. Nothstein said the company would take advantage of the density bonus, and pay the district $142,600 in amenity fees. Randy Dick of Portrait Homes in Vancouver said the company also

supports the incentives and fees as presented, but asked municipal hall to be more transparent, with specifics about what amenities it wants built in the area, and what the budget for them will be. Dick also called for townhouse zoning to allow for even more density, to enable developers to provide more affordable townhouses. Planner Lisa Zosiak said she understands that developers would like to know what the amenity fees would be used for, but that cannot be determined until the area is developed, and the total amount of funds is known. The money will be put into an Albion Area Amenities Reserve Fund. “What gets built depends on the amount in the fund,” Zosiak said. The density bonus structure would apply only to lands within the Albion Area Plan.

Says Crown failed to prove accused lived in growop house by Monisha M ar t ins staff reporter

A man accused of tending a large illegal marijuana crop in Maple Ridge was acquitted of trafficking charges earlier this month in Port Coquitlam Provincial Court. Judge Thomas Woods found Crown had failed

A young man who just served a prison sentence for a series of mail box thefts is back in custody. Ridge Meadows RCMP arrested Brandon Russell CummingHobson on Monday just three days after he was released from prison. Cumming-Hobson is currently facing charges of theft, breaching bail and fleeing from a peace officer. He was among three “prolific offenders” arrested this week by Ridge Meadows RCMP. Kevin Curtis Lawrence, 47 was arrested Sept. 10 and Richard Nelson, 33, was arrested on Saturday (Sept. 14). “These arrests are quite significant,” said

“The presence of such unopened mail suggests something other than the continuous presence of its owner at the residence and could be viewed as evidence of either a former association with the house or of only widely spaced, periodic attendances,” said Woods. The judge also noted that police only saw Jones’ car parked across the street from the growop once during the two weeks they spent watching the house. There is no direct, hands-on evidence of “production” by Jones

of the marijuana clone crop, said Woods. A second person – Shawn Nelson Cronin – was charged along with Jones. Cronin was the registered owner of the property at the time of the bust. He was arrested after leaving the house in his pickup truck with a load of clone plants. Crown characterized Cronin as the growop’s “operating mind,” while Jones was thought to be more of a caretaker. The charges against Cronin were stayed because it took to long for a trial.

He found Jones was not guilty of producing marijuana and possessing marijuana for the purpose of trafficking. In a written judgement released this week, Judge Woods noted that police seized a stack of unopened mail addressed to Jones from the house, but that didn’t prove Jones lived there.

Cpl. Alanna Dunlop. “One of the crime reduction strategies employed by Ridge Meadows RCMP is targeting prolific offenders. All three of these men are suspected of committing property crime in our community.” Charges against the trio range from possession of stolen property, fraudulent use of a credit card, theft and failing to abide by court-ordered conditions. Lawrence was released on bail, while both Nelson and CummingHobson remain in custody.

RID 911 - a success A campaign that urges people to pick up the phone and call 911 when they see a drunk

driver is being credited for a decrease in alcohol-related crashes in Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows. Ridge Meadows RCMP and Mothers Against Drunk Drivers are celebrating the one year anniversary of the Report Impaired Drivers to 911 campaign. “Over the first year, the RID 911 campaign has seen a 25 per cent increase in the number of reports of possible drinking drivers in our communities,” said Sgt. Dale Somerville, with Ridge Meadows traffic section. The detachment received a total of 692 calls from concerned citizens in the first year of the program. Overall Ridge Meadows RCMP has seen a

25 per cent decline in the number of alcoholrelated crashes in their jurisdiction. B.C.’s tough drunk driving laws and its Immediate Roadside Prohibition (IRP) program have also contributed to the decrease but Somerville added “there is little doubt the RID 911 has helped increase awareness regarding drinking and driving.” Pitt Meadows Mayor Deb Walters and Maple Ridge mayor Ernie Daykin thanked the people who called 911 to report suspected impaired drivers. “A year ago we stood together to launch this program hoping we could potentially save a life or prevent an injury – today we know we have,” said Walters.

But she still knows people living with the disease. Just two weeks ago, one of her friends passed away.

downtown Vancouver with five of her coworkers from Dundee Realty Management in Surrey. Their team is called the Dundee Divas and Dudes. The nine-kilometre course will begin and end at the Strathcona Park Oval Track at Raymur Avenue and William Street. Beginning at 10 a.m., competitors will race through streets and alleyways, tackling more than 10 obstacles modeled on iconic British Columbian landmarks along the way. Richardson, who gets up every morning at 5:30 a.m. to work out at the gym before heading to the office, is a little nervous. “I’m trying to work

my upper body to do the monkey bars,” she said, referring to the obstacle known as the muddy waters of Lost Lagoon that she will have to swing over. Competitors will also have to leap over dozens of cars and climb several busses in what is called the Lions Gate Lockdown, crawl through the Second Beach Dash and climb two stories over the Chief. At noon, the race will culminate in an urbanstyle block party. Richardson will be cheered on by her husband, two teenage sons and her mother and sister, who are traveling from Powell River to watch her race. “They figure if I’m going to put myself

through this, they’d better be there,” said Richardson. So far her team has raised $3,355, with $1,200 raised by Richardson herself. All money raised will be donated to the B.C. Cancer Foundation and cancer research in British Columbia. President and CEO Douglas Nelson expects 24,000 people will be diagnosed with cancer in B.C. this year. The B.C. Cancer Foundation is a fundraising partner of the BC Cancer Agency and the largest charitable fundraiser for cancer research in the province. • For more information go to www.concretehero.ca or call 604488-4376.

Pitt Meadows’ firefighters are asking the public to once again dig into their pockets to help support a worthy cause. Members of Pitt Meadows Fire and Rescue Services will be collecting donations throughout the city on Saturday, Sept. 21 for its annual Fill the Boot campaign in support of muscular dystrophy. All proceeds will go towards helping those living with muscular dystrophy Brad Perrie, assistant fire chief in Pitt Meadows, said 24 members will be hitting the streets to help support this worthy cause. “We’re out there donating our time,” said Perrie, “but it’s the good people of Pitt Meadows and Maple Ridge who deserve the credit. We

couldn’t do any of this without their generosity.” Firefighters will be canvassing for donations outside the Real Canadian Superstore and the B.C. Liquor Store at the Meadowtown Centre Mall from 10 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. They will also set up shop outside at the mall at the doors of the Cineplex Odeon Theatres from 8 to 9 p.m.. Another group of volunteers will be outside of the IGA and Starbucks at the MeadowVale Shopping Centre from 10 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Once the sun goes down, firefighters will take their fundraising efforts to Samz Neighbourhood Pub and the Jolly Coachman from 9 to 10 p.m. and will finish off the day collecting donations at Roosters Country Cabaret from 10 p.m. to midnight.

Verdict from front

Crown alleged Hecimovic made a series of “deliberate” decisions that led to her losing control of her car after she hit a concrete island. Justice Gropper disagreed. She believed that Hecimovic was not trying to beat the red light. The judge found Hecimovic’s behaviour was not a “marked departure from the norm,” as many people speed along that particular stretch of Lougheed Highway. Justice Gropper also believed that Hecimovic was unfamiliar with that stretch of highway, although her fiancé had lived about a kilometre ahead, on Meadows Gardens Way, for almost two years before the crash. The Meadows Gardens Way address was also listed on Hecimovic’s novice license. “The move to the right

Debbie Dyer is consoled outside the courthouse. lane was an error, but not a deliberate attempt to get ahead of traffic,” said Justice Gropper. She found there was no evidence presented to show that Hecimovic was trying to jump the red light. “Going through a red light is dangerous, but it happens. People misperceive lights,” Justice Gropper added. “I accept the accused evidence that she did not

see the light until she was at the intersection.” In short, Justice Gropper characterized Hecimovic’s driving as “simple carelessness. “The Crown has not met the heavy onus required. I am not convinced beyond a reasonable doubt that the accused’s driving constitutes the offence of dangerous driving causing death,” she said. The “not guilty” verdict came as a surprise

to the family and friends of Dyer and De Oliveira. His father John broke a table as he left the courtroom. “I’m so shocked,” said De Oliveira’s mother, Audrey, in tears outside court. Both families want Crown to appeal the verdict. They are now part of the activist group Families for Justice. The group is lobbying Ottawa for stiffer penalties for drivers who cause fatal crashes. Quoting her daughter’s favourite phrase “Be the change you wish to see in the world,” Debbie Dyer said she had to live up to that. “It’s not over.” Beckie was her only child. “Justice wasn’t served today,” she added. “There was no example made today. It’s not fair that she gets off with nothing.”

CUPE negotiates 3.5 per cent raise by T im Fit z geral d Contributor

Parents across the province are breathing a sigh of relief after a tentative two-year contract was reached between CUPE B.C. and the B.C. Public School Employers’ Association. The deal halted a possible strike set for Monday, Sept. 23 by the

Leisure Centre Improvements 2013 Since our closure on August 25th our hard working maintenance staff have been busy improving the facility to better meet your needs. Some of these things will be obvious to you as you walk through, others are hidden from view, but will ensure the facility continues to operate safely and efficiently. Upgrades included: • Removal of 1 set of gym bleachers. Installed TRX fitness equipment in vacant location. • Installation of new fitness equipment: Treadmill, Arc Trainer, Recumbent Cycle, Upright Cycle, Chest Fly/Rear Deltoid Cable Machine, Leg Press, Smith Machine, 4 bikes and an adjustable Decline Bench. • Mechanical upgrades to pool chlorination systems, pool deck fan systems and electrical soft-starts for pumps. • Painting in high traffic areas. • Refinished all hardwood floors and tile floors. • Upgraded weight room temperature controls. • Upgraded ventilation in all pool change rooms.

33,000 unionized public school staff. On Tuesday, teachers across the province were warned of the possible job action, and vowed not to cross picket lines. The two sides had been meeting and set a deadline of Wednesday, Sept. 18 to reach a deal. CUPE B.C., which represents 27,000 of the set-to-strike workers, has tentatively agreed to a 3.5 per cent wage increase over two years of the contract. Union members will get a one per cent retroactive raise dating back to July 1, 2013, then a two per cent hike kicking in on Feb. 1, 2014, and another 0.5 per cent affective on May 1, 2014. The deal expires on June 30, 2014. “CUPE B.C.’s 27,000 education workers are vital to keeping our schools clean, safe and inclusive,” said CUPE B.C. president Mark Hancock, in a statement. “I want to thank all 85,000 of our members across the province, and our K-12 members

in particular, for their solidarity. It’s only because we held together that we were able to negotiate a fair and reasonable contract, despite demands for concessions from the government.” George Serra, president of the Maple Ridge Teachers’ Association, said while he’s happy with the raise for support workers, he is disappointed the government didn’t kick in new money for the deal. He said with no increases in school budgets, local school boards will have to make cuts to pay for the wage increase. “I find it troubling that the government negotiated a settlement, but hasn’t provided any additional funding to cover the costs,” said Serra. “The only way to meet their budget will mean more cuts.” Serra said some schools have been forced to cut full-time teacher librarians and increase class sizes because of the district’s budget shortfalls. From initial reports, he’s also pleased to see

the B.C. Public School Employers’ Association also back down off some of the concessions surrounding sick time. He added the twoyear term for CUPE members is also an indication of what is a realistic settlement between the government and teachers. Premier Christy Clark campaigned on the promise of a 10-year agreement with teachers. Serra said that idea seems unrealistic. Parents have been frustrated by job action in the school system in recent years. Teachers have sometimes been accused of playing politics in negotiations between the BCTF and the Liberal government. The BCTF openly backs the B.C. NDP. The board had to wrestle with a funding shortfall it calculated at $5.6 million. Under the province’s Cooperative Gains Mandate, boards across the province would have to find funds in their budget to pay for the increase, as the government says it will give no new money.

here is something quite strange about us men, at least when it comes to health care. I realize Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be speaking in stereotypes here, and there are obvious exceptions, but for the most part, men donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t look after themselves the way they should. After years of youth sports, perhaps we have become convinced that we can just â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;walk it off,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; even if itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a big pain in the chest or it feels like someone is shoving a sword up our innards when we head to the bathroom five times a night. Personally, I plead guilty to manly indifference to regular routines of health care. I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really say why my fellow men have similar tendencies because, quite frankly, we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t talk much about it. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s perhaps the first difference between our gender and the more health-responsible other one â&#x20AC;&#x201C; we just donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t open up much about our health, so itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s off everyoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s radar.

that I have mentioned something amiss to my wife, she has gotten upset, resulting in two outcomes. The first is that she stews about my health at the risk of her own health. Since I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to kill her worrying about me, I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t tell her much. The second problem is that she forces me to go to a doctor and find out whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wrong. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an element of risk-taking to the male psyche that measures life more by quality than quantity. This might well explain why the Jackass television series and movies had all-male casts. Taking stupid risks, for the sake of the adrenaline rush that comes with it, is a pretty typical male behaviour. I would also suggest that patience is not generally associated with high levels of testosterone, yet the health care process takes buckets of it. I have, on more than one occasion, walked out on medical appointments when I have spent more than an hour in a waiting room.

Andrew Weaver suggests any opt-out fee should only reflect costs.

Smart meter opt-out fee lower in U.S.: MLA Green Party MLA says comparisons show B.C. Hydro has no justification by Jef f Nage l Black Press

B.C. Hydro’s planned fee of $35 a month for people who continue to refuse wireless smart meters is “outrageous” and isn’t justified based on what other jurisdictions charge, according to B.C.’s lone Green Party MLA. Andrew Weaver (Oak Bay-Gordon Head) said the proposed charge for manual meter readings is as high a many people’s entire power bills. “People perceive it as price gouging,” he said, adding the fees should accurately reflect Hydro costs and not generate extra profit.” Weaver pointed to some U.S. states that have similar opt-out programs from smart meters, but charge much less. California charges $10 a month after a $75 upfront fee, while low-income customers pay $5 a month after a $10 initial fee. Maine charges $12 a month for analog meter readings, after a $40 initial charge. BC Hydro’s fees still require approval by the B.C. Utilities Commission. Weaver said he’s urging the regulators to reject the $35 fee here based on the disparity with charges elsewhere. Holdouts here can also opt to take a smart meter with the transmitter disabled for a $100 one-time fee followed by $20 each month. Maine’s radio-disabled smart meter option costs $20 up front then $10.50 a month. Weaver said he doesn’t oppose wireless smart meters but added Hydro must provide a reasonable opt-out. He said BC Hydro’s price would be more logical if it were charged not monthly but on each actual meter reading every few months. Erin Cebula, Global BC

Lower Mainland mayors are predicting disaster when Ottawa cancels medical marijuana growing licences in thousands of B.C. homes next spring in favour of new commercial producers. They warned federal officials at the Union of B.C. Municipalities convention Tuesday that the transition – without any teeth to enforce closure and cleanup of the soon-to-beillegal home grows – will push them further into the grip of organized crime and leave cities with a legacy of contaminated houses. “You created this nightmare,” Abbotsford Mayor Bruce Banman told Health Canada representatives, noting Ottawa refused to identify licensees so cities could inspect them and ensure they’re safe. He said the federal government therefore has a moral obligation to help ensure medical pot grow houses are made safe so subsequent buyers don’t unsuspectingly move their families and children into homes with serious mould problems or electrical or fire code violations. “Fix the problem you helped create,” Banman demanded. “These people are going to close these homes down, they’re going to slap a little paint on and nobody is going to be the wiser. That is borderline criminal.” Health Canada would take steps to remediate if it were tied to properties contaminated with asbestos, he suggested, so it should do the same when under B.C. law past use of a property as a grow-op must be dis-

closed for health reasons. Other mayors, including Chilliwack’s Sharon Gaetz and Kelowna’s Walter Gray, predicted medical growers won’t stop voluntarily. “Dave’s not here, man,” quipped Burnaby Coun. Nick Volkow in a rendition of Cheech and Chong. Asked by the mayor of Mission what will be done to ensure growers shut down, Health Canada’s Todd Cain said licensees will be notified they must cease production, decommission and remediate. “Beyond that, we’re really relying on them to follow the law,” he said, drawing laughter. “They’re going to take that letter and roll it in product and they’re going to smoke it – that’s what’s going to happen,” predicted Mission Coun. Dave Hensman. He demanded to know how Ottawa justified licensing 700 legal medical pot grows in Mission – a community of 30,000 people – and said he opposes his municipality spending a dime to clean up the problem. “I’m not going to shut them down and you’re not going to shut them down. So, dude, it’s not going to work.” Cain said privacy restrictions still prevent Ottawa from disclosing permitted grows. He said Health Canada could begin certifying legal producers within weeks and some of the expected 50 to 75 producers to be chosen nationwide are expected to be in operation well before the official April 1 launch date of the new system. More than 100 licence applications have been received and about 40 are from B.C., most of them located in the Lower Mainland. Hensman said the Lower Mainland doesn’t need that many commercial growers, suggesting more be located elsewhere in Canada.

VICTORIA – The B.C. government’s consultation on liquor reform has begun with a debate about allowing alcoholic beverage sales in grocery stores. “Washington State is the model I favour,” a Lower Mainland resident wrote Monday on the B.C. government’s new consultation website. “No government involvement in retailing – period. Just enforce the legal drinking age.” The B.C. government’s pointman on liquor reform, Richmond-Steveston MLA John Yap, posted his own comments on the subject Monday. Yap warned that while opening up alcohol sales is a popular suggestion, “it certainly isn’t as straightforward as it may seem.” Yap noted that beer, wine and spirits are already sold in rural grocery stores that are licensed because their service area isn’t big enough to warrant a government retail store. In urban areas, he questioned whether alcoholic beverages should be sold in convenience stores and gas

stations, larger grocery stores, or bigbox retailers. “When this topic comes up in my meetings with health, safety and lawand-order advocates, the question will surely become that already we see 30 per cent of late-night attendees at a typical B.C. emergency department report alcohol consumption in the six hours prior to their injury or illness,” Yap said. “If we make it more available for the sake of convenience, will we see rates like this rise?” The government is inviting public comments until Oct. 31 at the website, www.gov.bc.ca/liquorpolicyreview. The site also lists submissions from health care, police and alcoholic beverage industry representatives. The current review continues a remake of B.C. liquor policy that began in 2002, when cold beer and wine stores were allowed to sell spirits, and a 10-year moratorium on new private store licences was lifted. When the consultation was launched in August, Yap said licenses for serving craft beer or local wine at farmers’ markets would be considered. Pubs also want to allow under-aged children in with their parents for lunch, putting them on a level playing field with licensed restaurants.

Loneliness simply part of being human

t has been said that loneliness is a serious problem in our society. Yet we rarely hear people admitting they are lonely. It is as though to admit it is to confess a weakness or flaw in our character when the truth is that loneliness is simply part of being human; we were created to be with others. In Genesis 2, verse 18, God said: “It is not good that man should be alone; I will make him a helper comparable to him.” To show the extent of loneliness in society, pastor Charles Swindoll once referred to an ad in a Kansas newspaper, which read, “I will listen to you talk for 30 minutes without comment for $5.” Pastor Swindoll stated:“Sounds like a hoax, doesn’t it? But the person was serious. Did anybody call? You bet. It wasn’t long before this individual was receiving 10 to 20

calls a day. The pain of loneliness was so sharp that some were willing to try anything for a half hour of companionship.” Loneliness is something most of us will experience at some point in our lives – whether at 10 or 100 years old. It is an emotional response to a lack of companionship or isolation. Loneliness can be triggered by life events such as illness, loss of a loved one due to a broken relationship or death, abuse, or moving to a new location or school.

UBCM calls on province for good-times revenue sharing Could be banked as rainy day fund for municipal infrastructure by Jef f Nage l Black Press

B.C. cities have endorsed a call for the province to share some of its revenues – not now but out in the future when hoped-for boom times arrive. That’s the centre piece of a financial reform policy paper tabled by the leadership of the Union of B.C. Municipalities that won unanimous support Wednesday. The concept is that in years when provincial revenue from all sources is up by more than an agreed threshold – three per cent is suggested – Victoria would share a portion of the excess with municipalities. Exactly how the money would be disbursed and where it could go would be up for much more debate, if the province even agrees to

the notion. So far Coralee Oakes, the minister responsible for local government, has promised nothing more than talks. But Saanich Mayor Frank Leonard, one of the architects, said the money would go into an infrastructure bank, with more of the money potentially reserved for use by cities in down years when ramped-up infrastructure spending can also help revive the economy rather than hot years with higher construction costs. Leonard said civic leaders understand that the province doesn’t want to hand over more of its existing income right now and that citizens don’t want to be hit with any new tax. He thinks the core concept will appeal to the government. “Let us be a partner in growing the economy, so much so that we

Scooter regulation plan falls short by To m Fletch e r Black Press

VANCOUVER – A bid by the town of Sidney to regulate the use of mobility scooters on sidewalks was rejected in a split vote by local politicians Wednesday. On the advice of the executive, delegates to the Union of B.C. Municipalities convention voted to drop a request for provincial licensing of sidewalk scooters, and to exclude motorized wheelchairs from any restrictions. But a majority of delegates voted against any kind of regulation. Sidney Mayor Larry Cross urged support, telling delegates there has been one fatality in his community, and two “serious rollovers” this past summer as scooters shared sidewalks with pedestrians. “We’re kind of the canary in the mine in terms of the aging population, and the incidents and conflicts can only grow over time,” Cross said. Other council members were unimpressed. “If you have a problem with your sidewalks and people are

rolling over, maybe you need to fix the sidewalks,” said Langley Township councillor Bob Long. “There are motorized bicycles, so is that the next thing, we’re going to license bicycles?” Sidney councillor Melissa Hailey said the community has “wonderful sidewalks,” but education and some regulation is needed. “There is no real legislation or any ability to deal with unsafe scootering on our sidewalks,” Hailey said. “Drinking and scootering is very hard to enforce.” Nelson councillor Robin Cherbo said some solution is needed. His community has narrow sidewalks and some scooter users take to the roadway, without flags or lights. Cranbrook Mayor Wayne Stetski was opposed, after talking with scooter and wheelchair users in his community. Saanich councillor Vic Derman agreed that scooter users and pedestrians need education, but communities should focus on local improvements to give scooter users more safe routes.

benefit financially with growth in the economy,” Leonard said. “If we were in their shoes, we think we would like to hear this.” Asked if local governments should trust the province not to shuffle its accounts and discretionary dividends from Crown corporations to keep total revenue below any sharing threshold, Leonard doubted that will be a problem. “I would think if they’re having good years – three, four and five per cent growth in

revenue – they’re not going to hide it, they’re going to be damn proud of it. And we want to be proud of it too.”

approval each year. Cities feel too dependent on property taxes that don’t reflect owners’ ability to pay. Premier Christy Clark has said future liquefied natural gas revenues could generate huge dividends for the province that could fund various benefits, including lower tolls on the Port Mann Bridge. Civic leaders would prefer a systematic method for sharing any future bounty rather than one that could be sporadic or politicized.

Location and beautiful homes combine at Verve By Kerry Vital

For people starting out the housing market, location and value are tops on the list of things you’re looking for. Porte Development is fulfilling both of these wishes with Verve, its condominium development in Surrey’s vibrant City Centre. “The location is amazing, just a six-minute walk from King George SkyTrain” says Jeanette Chaput, director of marketing and sales for Porte. “Now is a great time to buy.”

The second building, Social, is launching on Sept. 21. The first building has already had a great response. “We’re almost sold out of the first building,” Chaput says,” and construction is moving along really quickly.” There will eventually be a third building at Verve as well. Each building will be four storeys, with 66 suites each ranging from 540 to over 1,000 square feet in a range of one- and two-bedroom plans. There are some three-bedroom plans depending on the building.

“There are a lot of things that people love at Verve,” says Chaput. “There are balconies on every home, and tons of closet and storage space.” With nine-foot ceilings (11 feet on the top floor!) and open layouts, the homes at Verve feel spacious and inviting. The kitchens are particularly impressive, with polished quartz countertops, stainless-steel appliances and CONTINUED INSIDE

Surrey’s City Centre is a vibrant, thriving area with plenty of amenities, from transit via SkyTrain to shopping and dining at Central City shopping centre. You’ll also find a library, middle right, and the Surrey campus of Simon Fraser University, bottom right.

Living the good life in Surrey’s City Centre By Kerry Vital

In recent years, Surrey’s City Centre area has been growing and becoming one of the most popular areas in the Lower Mainland. With transit, shopping, dining, education and amazing homes all in the neighbourhood, it’s easy to see why City Centre is tops on many homebuyers’ lists. Among the developers that have been building in the area are Concord Pacific and Porte Development, who are both building condominum projects that have already proven popular with buyers.

City Centre’s easy access to the rest of Metro Vancouver is a large part of why it’s a perfect place to live. With SkyTrain right on your doorstep, you can take part in the downtown Vancouver nightlife or commute to work without having to deal with the hassles of driving. Perhaps you’re just looking for a nice place for a run or a picnic. Surrey is known as the “City of Parks”, so you will never need to go far to find a quiet spot. Tom Binnie Park is the home of the B.C. Lions practice facility, and also includes a playground, turf field and outdoor basketball courts, as well as the Chuck Bailey Recreation Centre. It holds a full-court gym and has a focus on youth and family. Surrey’s Holland Park is right beside Central City shopping centre, and includes art, water fountains and trails perfect for your every need, from running to cycling. It hosts a variety of events all year, including the annual Fusion Festival and Movies under the Stars. Another park in the area is the Whalley

Athletic Park, which hosts the Whalley Little League, and also includes batting cages, soccer fields, a playground and walking paths. A city is nothing without its culture and architecture, and City Centre is no different. City Centre is just blocks away from the Surrey Art Gallery, which includes a large contemporary art collection. The gallery prides itself on featuring artwork from local, national and international artists, and also hosts lectures, workshops and courses on art. But art in Surrey City Centre is not just inside the Art Gallery. Several public art installations are located throughout the area, including several in Holland Park and the City Centre Library. That library is located near Surrey’s new City Hall. It includes a cafe, several meeting spaces, a computer learning centre, a teen lounge and gaming room, and more reading materials than you could ever hope to finish, in a variety of languages. You’ll also find the Surrey campus of Simon Fraser University in City Centre, along with

You’ll find a full-sized fitness centre and yoga studio and a guest suite for your overnight visitors, as well as Club Red. This exclusive space for Verve residents includes a lounge, kitchen/bar area that opens onto a patio with a barbecue, a pool table, flatscreen TV and darts area, as well as a meeting room. Currently Porte is showcasing its Flexible Deposit Program. If you aren’t able to come up with a large deposit today, you are able to build up your downpayment while your home itself is being built. “This way you can secure the home you want and build the downpayment as you go,” Chaput says. “The second building will be ready next October, so you have a year to save.” Porte is also offering a limited-time promotion over the grand opening weekend of Social. Buyers who purchase on Sept. 21 and 22 will receive three years of strata fees on Porte, which is a great incentive to buy. Homes at Verve start at $169,900.

Key to painting well is good preparation By Robert Prince

ainting – it’s one of those jobs that some people love, and others hate. But whether you love it or hate it, if you have to do it then you might as well do it properly. Painting projects come in all shapes and sizes, and painting doors to get the desired professional look is one of the more difficult challenges a do-it-yourselfer can tackle – not because it’s particularly difficult to do physically, but more so because it’s tricky to do the job well. This is especially true if your door has a lot of nooks and crannies. That said, it can be done well by anyone who is willing to prepare properly, then use some patience to get things just right. So says Ron Molema, branch manager for the Maple Ridge Cloverdale Paint store, who has a lot of experience in the field. As with most DIY projects, says Molema, the key is good preparation. Whether you’re planning to paint a wood or metal door, it’s important to spend a little time doing the things that will ensure the paint sticks to the surface properly when applied. This isn’t so difficult with new doors that already have a primer coat applied, says Molema. They shouldn’t be dirty yet, so a light sanding followed by a quick wipe down to remove any dust or moisture should be all you need. If you’re repainting doors that are already hanging in your home, they’ll need to be taken down off the hinges first. After that, remove the hardware, then wash the doors. Molema recommends a product like TSP to remove grime, oils and anything else that might interfere with paint adhesion. Once the washing and drying is finished, a light sanding followed by a wipe down with a lint-free cloth to remove dust should have things in order. Whatever you do, he cautions, don’t use regular household cleaners as these tend to leave a film on the surface of the door that will likely ensure the paint peels off later. So what kind of paint should you use? Molema says your best bet for getting a professional-looking finish is a waterborne latex paint with a semi-gloss finish. “Semi-gloss is the standard for doors and trim because it wears better than an eggshell finish,” he says. “It’s more washable.”

Ron Molema of Cloverdale Paint recommends a waterborne latex paint with a semi-gloss finish.

Whichever finish you choose, chances are the paint itself will be white, or slightly off-white. The paint store manager says about 98 per cent of people will choose the standard white for their interior doors but you can get any colour you like for the job. For equipment, Molema recommends a paint sprayer – if you can get your hands on one – to get the best possible finish. Failing that, a non-foam roller is your best bet, and if you have nooks and crannies in the door, then a thicker roller to get down into those hard-toreach places is a good option. You could also use a poly-blend bristle brush, but stay away from

natural bristle, as it tends to soak up paint and make things more difficult. Once the latex paint is applied let it dry for four to six hours before you attempt to do anything with it. It takes about 24 hours to cure, so the longer you can leave it, the less chance your work will be marred. After all that, re-attach the hardware and hang the door. Molema says there are a couple of anomalies to watch out for. First, if your door is not already primed you’re going to have to wash it, then coat it with an oil-based primer. Once the primer coat has dried, another wash and light sanding

will get you back on track. If the door is made of metal, you’ll need to know what kind of metal it is to get the right primer. You should also be aware that if the door you’re working on is already painted with oilbased paint, then you’ll have no choice when it comes to your paint – you’ll have to use a waterborne option. And there you have it, if you’re wanting to get those doors painted properly, use these tips, and talk to an expert if you have further questions.

The News/sports Titans set for varsity debut Samuel Roberts set to kick off first season in Langley by T i m Fitzg e r ald contributor

Years of building their football program will pay off as the Samuel Robertson Technical program kick off their first ever AA varsity season against Langley at McLeod Athletic Park Friday at 3 p.m. Head coach Mark Ogloff said his team has been working hard and is looking forward to taking the next step in it development. As for expectations, he said there will be the inevitable growing pains. “I’d like to say we don’t need luck because we have tons of skill,” said Ogloff, who also serves as president of the Ridge Meadows Knights organization. “They do have tons of skill, but what we lack is experience.” While he knows their will be bumps in the road, he’s excited for the school. Leslie McPherson, athletic director for SRT, said the shift to AA varsity means the team will be playing night games for thew first time in the school’s history. “I’m hoping over time we can create a real Friday Night Lights atmosphere,” said McPherson. “We want to be able to create some atmosphere for students and family on game night.” The Samuel Robertson Titans makes their home debut Sept. 27 against Robert Bateman of Abbotsford at 7 p.m.

Pitt Meadows Marauders The Pitt Meadows Marauders built an early lead and hung on for a 21-13 win against a tough hard-nosed Valleyview Vikings from Kamloops in its final tune-up before the start of the season on Friday. Running back Brandon Stewart galloped for 185 yards on 15 carries, including a 15-yard scamper for the game’s opening touchdown. The Marauders jumped out to a two touchdown lead after as quarterback Jake Schuster connected with Manny Gill on a 20-yard pass. Stewart put the Mauraders up 21-0 early in the second quarter with a 25-yard run. The Vikings finally hit the score sheet justbefore the half to make it 21-6 at halftime. The Vikings’ defence turned a tipped ball into six points to make the score 21-13 heading into the final quarter. Marauders’ cornerback Justin Tweedie intercepted an errant pass late in the fourth quarter to seasl the victory for Pitt Meadows. Safety Ryan Beaubien led the Marauders defence with six tackles, while defensive tackle Cole White chipped in with four tackles, including two sacks. Defensive end Callum Williamson had three tackles and two sacks. Pitt Meadows opens the regular season against the defending AA Eastern conference champion Mission Roadrunners at Pitt Meadows Secondary starting at 7:30 p.m.

Quarterback Jake Schuster of the Pitt Meadows Marauders prepares for the defending Eastern conference champion Mission Roadrunners in their home opener Friday at 7:30 p.m. at Pitt Meadows Secondary. Knights won a thriller of the Abbotsford Falcons 14-13. Taigan Godin of the Gold Knights punched in a short run to the end zone as time expired bringing his team with one of the Falcons. Going for the win, the Gold Knights lined up for the two-point conversion with Jaxon Smart split-

ting the uprights to lead the team to victory. The Gold Knights strong defence carried the team in the first half, led by the Sanderson brothers, Aiden and Tyler,. The duo help lead the defense to keep the Falcons scoreless throughout the first half of the game. Abbotsford came back to score in

the third quarter and again in the fourth taking the lead 13-6. The Gold Knights responded late in the game using their three-minute offense led by the team’s hulking offensive linemen, Kody Davey and Shamus Horobic. The two opened lanes on the final drive, including Godin’s last-second plunge for the touchdown.

Kodiaks dampen Flames on road contributed

Any momentum the Ridge Meadows Flames had coming into Wednesday night’s game against the Aldergrove Kodiaks was quickly extinguished after a 6-0 loss. The Flames had opened the season with an impressive late comefrom-behind 4-4 tie in their season opener against the Grandview Steelers last Friday and a road 3-2 win against the North Vancouver Wolf Pack the following night. But the team’s first big test was against the Kodiaks, who won the

Harold Brittian playoff title last year before falling to Richmond in the PJHL finals. The Flames and Kodiaks were scoreless after the opening period, with the shot totals favouring Aldergrove 15-10. But it was in the second period where the wheels came off for the Flames. The Spencer McHaffie opened the scoring for the Kodiaks at the 6:11 mark and from there it was all down hill three more goals just over eight minutes had the Flames trailing 4-0. The Kodiaks scored one with just under a

minute to play in the second period to run their lead to 5-0. The Flames surrendered 23 shots in the second period. One more goal just two minutes into the third sent starting goalie Tyler Read to the bench. Flames back-up Kurt Kilmek played the final 17 minutes, registering nine saves in his first regular season action of the season. The Flames went 0-8 on the power play and fired 34 shots at Kodiaks rookie goalie Tate Sproxton, who made his first PJHL start. The Flames come

home in hopes they can rebound, taking on the Mission City Outlaws Friday, Sept. 20 at Planet Ice. Ridge Meadows finishes the week with a game against the 1-2 Abbotsford Pilots Saturday in Abbotsford.

Up next • The Flames next home game is Friday, Sept. 20 against the Mission City Outlaws at Planet Ice at 7:30 p.m. • The Flames vs the Abbotsford Pilots Saturday, Sept. 21 at the MSA Arena at 7:15 p.m.
