Do you feel the need for speed? B.C. government to review highway speed limits; wants public input by Jeff Nagel TRANSPORTATION MINISTER Todd Stone wants B.C. residents to weigh in on a potential increase in highway speed limits now under consideration. Stone announced the formal review of speed limits Friday in Kamloops, although he had previously indicated it was coming and technical work is already underway. The Coquihalla Highway already has a speed limit of 110 km/h, but traffic there does an average speed of 118 km/h, while drivers routinely exceed the posted limit of 90 or 100 km/h on many other provincial highways. “There’s no question the Coquihalla is a prime candidate for an adjustment in the speed limit,” Stone said, also listing sections of Highway 1 in the Lower Mainland and around Kamloops as well as the Cariboo Connector towards Prince George. It’s been a decade since B.C. last reviewed speed limits. Todd Stone Stone said any increases would involve mainly rural provincial highways between communities, not highways in urban areas of the Lower Mainland, although which specific corridors to adjust will be subject to public input.
“I am not interested in making any changes that are going to compromise the safety of motorists.”

Cost of Pattullo fix doubles TransLink sets aside $300M to fix bridge – up from $150M by Jeff Nagel TRANSLINK IS earmarking nearly $300 million to rehabilitate the aging Pattullo Bridge over the next three years even though the structure could be torn down soon after the work is done. But officials at the regional transportation authority insist they will try not to spend the money unnecessarily and
are hopeful the bulk of the outlay can be averted if a decision on replacing the Pattullo with a new bridge can be made soon enough. The projected amount to be spent repairing the bridge has doubled from a previous estimate of $150 million to $299 million after work on the span this summer gave TransLink a better idea of what is needed. Executive Vice-President of Policy
and Strategic Planning Bob Paddon said the rehab work could begin as soon as 2015 and he hopes a decision on the Pattullo’s replacement will be made in 2014. But even a quick decision on replacement won’t avert the need to expend a significant amount fixing the old bridge, Paddon said, because those repairs will be necessary before a new bridge opens.

Four more ‘civic treasures’ honoured Residents recognized for contribution to Surrey culture by Sheila Reynolds
SHE’S KNOWN as the Queen of Props, and tonight (Oct. 8), Maxine Howchin will be among this year’s recipients of a Surrey Civic Treasures award. It’s the 10th year of the Business and the Arts reception and the sixth year of the civic treasure awards. The awards were established in 2008 to honour citizens who reflect the unique character and history of Surrey or help develop or build appreciation of the city’s culture. Howchin, a longtime advocate of the arts and volunteer with Fraser Valley Gilbert and Sullivan Society (managing props), has lived in Surrey since she was a child. She is vice-president of the Arts Council of Surrey, a tap dancer and spends Howchin many an hour volunteering her time in the community. She is one of four citizens receiving a civic treasure award this year. The others are Kelly Konno Konno, Ellie King and Patricia Dahlquist. Konno is the creator of the 2010 Olympics Celebration Dance team. She is the owner and director of Triple King Threat Dance Connection and was a choreographer for Janet Jackson. King is the founder of the Royal Canadian Theatre Company, which stages a Dahlquist traditional British pantomime production in Surrey annually. She’s an acclaimed actor and teaches performing arts. Dahlquist is a Juno-awardwinning singer and co-founder of the Young Peoples’ Opera Society of B.C. The celebrated librettist is also an actor, vocal coach and theatre teacher. Howchin, Konno, King and Dahlquist will be honoured and given a medal at a reception at the Surrey Arts Centre tonight (Tuesday) at 6 p.m.

He said a higher speed limit along some stretches of highway has been made possible by billions of dollars in major road upgrades since the last review in 2003, including 180 additional kilometres of four- or six-lane highway. He also said vehicles are “much safer today than 10 years ago” as a result of traction stability control, anti-lock brakes and other improvements. Stone cited a 28-percent drop in injury-causing collisions since 2003. And he said research increasingly suggests the greatest danger isn’t speeding itself, but driving at a much different speed than most other drivers. A minority of 15 per cent of drivers who don’t keep up with the flow or who speed excessively are at greater risk of a crash than the other 85 per cent of drivers who may be going somewhat
over the posted speed limit, he said. Stone stressed decreases in the speed limit are also possible. “This review is not about increasing speed limits, it’s about making sure we have the right speed limits.” And he said there will be “no Autobahn” in B.C. where speed limits are lifted altogether. “I am not interested in making any changes that are going to compromise the safety of motorists.” He said one option could be variable speed limits that are higher in the day and lower at night. The review will pull in fresh research from around the world, and closely consider factors unique to B.C., such as its geography and high mountain passes.

Pattullo:
From page 1
“We will need to spend some money though because, even if we have a decision, we’re still going to have to figure out how to fund it and then you have to build it,” he said at a recent meeting of Metro Vancouver mayors. Much of the required work is on the bridge deck itself, in addition to seismic upgrades. CEO Ian Jarvis said TransLink is required to plan for the rehabilitation scenario in its new base plan, because it has no revenue secured yet to replace the bridge. Public consultation found most respondents back a new six-lane Pattullo, but the idea was opposed by most New Westminster residents, who would rather trucks and traffic from Surrey bypass their city. TransLink has winnowed 25 bridge replacement configurations down to six. It aims to short-list two or three preferred options this winter ahead of a final choice – if the cities of Surrey and New Westminster can unite behind one. It’s assumed the new $1-billion-plus crossing would be paid for through tolls. The Pattullo could be knocked out of service by a moderate earthquake or a ship collision, and is at risk of being undermined by river scour, according to TransLink.

Senior dies after GRAND OPENING SPECIAL No exam fees on first visit being hit by truck Apollo
by Kevin Diakiw
AN ELDERLY South
Asian man has died after being hit by a pickup truck. At just after 9 a.m. Thursday, the 84-yearold man was crossing 96 Avenue. He was not at a marked crosswalk. A red Ford 150 pickup truck was pulling out of a parking lot and turning westbound onto 96 Avenue when it struck the senior. He suffered head injuries and was taken to hospital and succumbed to those injuries overnight Thursday. Police are describing it as a “slow-speed” accident, and they note that drugs or alcohol are not believed to be factors. The driver remained at the scene. However, police say it is too early in the investigation to say with certainty whether the 65-year-old driver of the truck will be charged. kdiakiw@surreyleader.com

NORTH DELTA DEVELOPMENT
Fair compromise
RAESIDE
W
ith MK Delta Lands’ recent proposal to develop 36 hectares near Highway 91 and 72 Avenue, the decades-long fight to protect Burns Bog in its entirety may finally reach its conclusion – and this should be cause for celebration. Part of the development proposal includes having another 78 hectares of bog land be absorbed into the contiguous Burns Bog Conservation Area, bringing the grand total of protected lands to more than 2,200 hectares. This parcel, currently zoned for industrial-scale peat extraction, is the critical last piece in the Burns Bog puzzle. The 2,250-hectare bog property was originally bought from the provincial government in 1978 by a group of investors led by the McLaughlin family, who also purchased Grouse Mountain at the time. The MK Group held a minority stake in the deal, and in 2004, became the principal and controlling investor. It was then, after decades of controversy about the future of the bog, that the MK Group sold off more than 2,000 hectares of its land for a price tag of $73 million to various levels of government so it could be used to create the Burns Bog Conservancy Area. Not long after the initial deal was struck, the Corporation of Delta expressed concerns about the lack of connecting greenspace on what is now the DeltaSouth Surrey Greenway. So the MK Group agreed to reopen the deal and sell off additional lands, leaving itself close to 115 hectares of land along Highway 91 with which to develop. The development plan calls for 1,100 residential units in the form of 650 fourstorey apartments and 450 three-storey townhouses, as well as 12,000 square metres of commercial space. The proposal will also see $30 million in Highway 91 upgrades, benefiting the hundreds of thousands of commuters who use the route every day. The property is currently zoned for industrial uses, but the MK Delta Lands’ proposal will have far less environmental impact. Under the current development proposal, only 36 hectares will actually be built on, and of that, about half will remain undeveloped. So from the 2,250 hectares of its original holdings, MK Delta Lands will be only be building on about 18 hectares – little more than half of one per cent. If that isn’t compromise, what is? – Black Press

won’t be signing the “Sensible B.C.” petition to demand a provincewide referendum on marijuana enforcement. You shouldn’t either, and here are a few reasons why. Let me start by saying I’ve been calling for legalization and regulation of pot for 20 years, to conserve police resources and reduce violent crime. Our war on drugs is a failure even for heroin and cocaine, and marijuana is obviously much easier to produce. But the current effort led by Dana Larsen, B.C.’s clown prince of pot, is not only misguided, it’s dangerous. The petition does not propose legalization. It seeks to impose a provincial law that would stop B.C. police from using any resources for simple possession charges. This would create a loophole in the federal drug law. So what would that do? It would protect otherwise innocent customers of the current illegal marijuana trade, while leaving the criminal distribution business in place. For a closer look at that, I recommend reports from the Surrey Six murder trial now underway, or the upcoming case against

cancer” on the table, he proceeded to interrupt speeches by cancer survivors and the run itself by yelling the same false slogan. You can imagine how people with terminal cancer and their loved ones would react. Some would know that marijuana may alleviate side effects of chemotherapy, just as it can ease suffering for some multiple sclerosis patients. But the suggestion of a cure is as cruel as it is moronic. Larsen’s “cannibus” has been rolling around B.C., reaping uncritical media coverage. It even blundered into the recent Walk for Reconciliation in Vancouver, an event to mark the end of federal hearings into the effects of residential schools on aboriginal children. I wouldn’t support the Larsen bunch for anything, unless it involved them looking for jobs. Just say no. Tom Fletcher is legislature reporter and columnist for Black Press and BCLocalNews. com

Assign Road rage or worse coming to North Surrey parking in Clayton
I, ALONG with other letter writers and other Clayton homeowners, have an idea for the City of Surrey engineering department on the parking and illegal suite issue in Surrey. The city has been called to investigate illegal suites an infinite number of times, but what really can end up happening is the kitchen cooking quarters are temporarily removed for the inspection and people pointblank lie to the bylaw officer about having that third profiting suite. Numerous and frustrated Clayton homeowners have commented on picking up the slack for inconsiderate cheating people illegally renting and taking up all the street parking because of it. Same applies to those individuals who don`t utilize their double garages for what they are intended for – parking up to two vehicles and instead using them for storage or massive dog houses. If every home in the congested areas of Clayton was assigned one numbered street parking spot as they do in some parts of White Rock, it may make the responsible property owners a little more sane and the irresponsible landlords with illegal multiple suites less greedy for profit. That one valued parking spot could be used for either a homeowner, a guest, or even a tenant. More people may then use their carports and driveways and still have that extra assigned street spot and even better yet, the coach homes with still have a two-car garage and the parking spot beside the coach and assigned a street spot. It may just cut down on the illegal basement suites then if they know they don’t think they can park anywhere. Right now I see some people parking two cars on the street and not using their garage for this purpose and numerous illegal basement suite occupants (some from the same homes whom don’t use garages either for parking) filling up the streets. Not fair at all. If we take away something that’s not deserved then it can become an eye-opener for illegal suite homeowners and responsible tax-paying homeowners who do offer off-street parking to tenants a well deserved chance to enjoy their neighbourhood.

THE TRAFFIC and detours resulting from the
new city hall construction and hotel are, to say the least, an inconvenience to the local residents, but becoming the norm. However, the planning for the re-routing of traffic needs a bit of tweaking. The northbound left-turn light on University Drive at 104 Avenue blinks to no avail, as there is no left turn possible with the road closed while the eastbound cars on University Drive opposite must sit in wait against the no-leftturn until the left-turn light turns solid. Surely there is technology to change the light sequence. The new island on City Parkway that prevents a left turn into the Safeway parking lot changes the driving route from residence coming along
University Drive. Either take a left at 105 Avenue to King George Boulevard, or drive along University Drive to U-turn back via 102 Avenue and then left at the light at City Parkway. Currently there are flag persons out along University Drive and at times along 104 Avenue. My reasons for writing is focused on the added congestion along 102 Avenue because of this re-directing. The two walkways along the small block fronting Central City Shopping Centre has always been a congested at peak points, but with the added cars on the new path toward the Safeway mall, it’s a parking lot of cars being held hostage by the pedestrians. Pedestrians come first, no qualms about that, however, would it not make sense to hire two addi-
tional flag persons for peak times to allow more than one car to travel past paths of relentless pedestrians? Patience only lasts so long when on your way home to dinner. I sat for five minutes in the bottleneck and saw three cars looking for a quick way out of the traffic by speeding through the parking lot across from the mall to get onto City Parkway. That can’t be safe. Why not toss us drivers an olive branch and prevent unnecessary anxiety with two crossing guards? Road rage is to suggest the least effect... at the most, someone is going to get hurt. Ruth Zalm Surrey
Grandkids: Check seniors’ smoke alarm RE: “DEATH of seniors partly due to
failed smoke alarm: Report,” The Leader, Oct. 3. My wife and I are both senior citizens with smoke alarms in our basement, bedrooms, and two in our hallway. Two because one is hard-wired and will not work if we have a power failure. The other one is a the typical nine-volt batteryoperated unit. On reading this story, I checked out all of our smoke detectors. Some things to watch for are steady or flashing green lights on the battery-operated units. Most smoke alarms come with a pushbutton that gives a beep if it is still working. Others are even guaranteed for 10 years. If the smoke alarm gives out a chirping sound that is annoying your wife, it probably is telling you to change the nine-volt battery. If children can run a computer, iPhone or iPad, checking out their grandparents’ smoke alarms would be child’s play – and could save a life. FILE PHOTO / THE LEADER
A letter writer suggests that making sure older people’s smoke alarms are in working order would be ‘child’s play’ for today’s technologically savvy youth.

Why is tethering not illegal in Surrey? THE PICTURE at right is of a dog that has been
living on the end of a chain in Surrey for at least four years. Her name is Wendy. She has been exposed to the recent downpours with nothing but a crate for shelter. She hates the crate and is rarely seen inside it, even in the worst weather. You can see from her coat that she hasn’t been groomed in years. She spends almost every minute of the day alone, pacing relentlessly, which is all she can do, day in and day out, for years. Her life is a misery. Wendy has been reported repeatedly to the BCSPCA but they won’t seize her because the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act does not define tethering as distress. Wendy has food, shelter and water – these days lots and lots of water – so she has everything the law requires to keep her alive. Miserable, but alive. If Wendy lived in Burnaby, New Westminster, Lion’s Bay, Richmond, Victoria, or Calgary, her suffering would be over as these communities have all banned tethering. But unfortunately for Wendy she lives in Sur-
PHOTO SUBMITTED
rey, where this cruelty is still legal. And that brings me to my oft-repeated question. Why? Why, despite a promise to enact a tethering ban a year-and-a half-ago, has Surrey still not done so? I have been asking this same question for almost a year now. But I have yet to receive an answer. Only Coun. Judy Villeneuve
gave me the courtesy of a response, but she could not provide me an answer. As a 15-year taxpayer and resident of Surrey, should not my questions and concerns be responded to more promptly? On the city website Mayor Dianne Watts states, “I believe Surrey City Council can and should be a catalyst for change and innovation. People expect leaders to lead, and if we act progressively and collaboratively we can achieve great things. I have faith in our city and its people …” But Surrey has not led the way in humane legislation. It has not even followed the lead of other municipalities. Mayor Watts may have faith in our city, but I for one have lost complete faith in her and her government. They have turned their backs on chained dogs like Wendy whose suffering has no end in sight. And they have turned their backs on it’s taxpayers who demand to know why.

RCMP looking for suspicious male Suspect grabbed a teen near Clayton Heights Secondary School by Kevin Diakiw LAST MONTH, a 14-year-
old boy was heading back to Clayton Heights Secondary after lunch when he noticed he was being followed. On Sept. 30 at about 11:45 a.m., the young teen was near Extra Foods in the 18700-block of Fraser Highway when he noticed the stranger, who approached and grabbed him briefly. The teen pushed the attacker away and ran back to school. The boy was uninjured. The suspect is described as a Caucasian
male in his late 50s, about 6’1” with a slim build who was wearing a black hoodie with the hood up and light blue jeans. He had a grey beard. “Our investigators

evidence of drug making or growing. Caesar Tiojanco, who was the owner of suite 1505 but rented it out, took the stand Thursday at the murder trial of three men charged in the death of six men at Balmoral Tower. He told Justice Catherine Wedge that in early 2007, the year of the murders, he was first renting the suite in Balmoral Tower to a young man who the building manager later warned him was involved with illegal activities in another suite. Tiojanco said he kicked him out, and began renting to a woman named Desiree and her boyfriend, Raphael Baldini. The suite owner said he was then informed in June 2007 Desiree would be moving out and Baldini’s cousin, Chris Baldini,

would be moving in. He testified Chris looked nothing like Raphael, who appeared Italian, and more closely resembled shooting victim Christopher Mohan. Tiojanco said Raphael and Chris paid their rent in cash, handing him money at the door. He said as per strata requirements, he attended suite 1505 on Oct. 13, 2007 – six days before the murders – to inspect for any evidence of drug making or growing. Tiojanco said he had to check there was no tampering with the plumbing or electrical, which he did, and found nothing suspicious. The inspections, he said, were done every six months. Tiojanco said he also contacted Baldini about fireplace servicing scheduled to take place in suite 1505 on Oct. 19 and Baldini told him his cousin would be home. Surrey’s Christopher Mohan, 22, and Abbotsford’s Ed Schellenberg, 55, were murdered in suite 1505 on Oct. 19, 2007, along with brothers Corey and Michael Lal, Eddie Narong and Ryan Bartolomeo. Police said the Lals, Narong and Bartolomeo were known to them as having drug ties, while Mohan, a resident in the building, and Schellenberg, a gas fitter working in the building that week, were innocent victims in the wrong place at the wrong time. The Crown’s case against Cody Rae Haevischer, Matthew Johnston and Quang Vinh Thang (Michael) Le rests on the theory that Corey Lal was the intended victim of a targeted hit and that the other five men were killed so there were no witnesses. Crown prosecutors contend Corey Lal was dealing drugs on the turf of Red Scorpion gang members,

Katie Bott, a close friend of victim Bartolomeo, testified she believed the 19-year-old was a drug dealer, but she never talked about it with him and she didn’t do drugs herself. She said she overheard him talking on the phone about dealing and saw him put drugs in bags, leave, and return with no bags. Haevischer’s defence lawyer Simon Buck challenged Bott, noting in her initial police interview
Ed Schelleberg (left) and Chris Mohan were among those killed on Oct. 19, 2007. Lal’s death. The three men entered not guilty pleas Sept. 30. Throughout the week, friends and family members of the deceased took the stand at the so-called Surrey Six trial. Corey Lal’s girlfriend of two years said her boyfriend had a mechanical shop with his brother, but that she suspected he might be involved with drugs. However, she testified, he was “not at all” flashy, never had wads of cash and she saw no evidence that he was a successful drug dealer. Jourdane Lal, sister of Michael and Corey Lal, said Corey had a string of different cellphones and seemed to have the means to buy expensive things, although he didn’t have his own car. She said Narong was Corey’s best friend and that she thought the two had some trouble with the law, perhaps for drug trafficking.
shortly after Bartolomeo was killed, she didn’t say anything about drugs. Bott said she had being crying all night when she spoke to police and likely forgot to mention it. The Crown, however, pointed out that in her statement, Bott did refer to Bartolomeo being gone for 12 hours at a time “running,” which she explained was for a dial-a-dope operation. Testimony closed Thursday with Eric Akai, another friend of Bartolomeo’s. He said he talked to his buddy of three years on the afternoon of his death and didn’t detect anything wrong. There was no fear in Bartolomeo’s voice, Akai told the court, even though it was shortly before the time the Crown alleges he and the five other men were murdered. The trial continues this week in B.C. Supreme Court in Vancouver. Check surreyleader.com

including the accused, as well as one of the gang’s leaders, Jamie Bacon. The Crown alleges Bacon and Le ordered Haevischer, Johnston and another person (who can’t be named) to kill Corey Lal.

Blind senior upset by night at Delta Hospital 90-year-old sent home by cab in her pajamas at 2 a.m.
by Adrian McNair
DELTA RESIDENT Vivian
Fitzpatrick is upset that she was discharged from Delta Hospital at 2 a.m. in her pajamas last week. Fraser Health has apologized for an incident that took place Sept. 30, after the 90-year-old legally blind woman was put in a taxi and sent home from Delta Hospital at 2 a.m. Fitzpatrick, a resident of Tsawwassen since 1964, said she had nausea, a headache, a throbbing pain in her leg, and a blood pressure reading of 206/80 around 10 p.m. Monday, so she called an ambulance. The paramedics came and insisted she go to Delta Hospital to get checked out. Fitzpatrick agreed, leaving in only her pajamas and nothing on her feet. “I just didn’t think to bring slippers,� said Fitzpatrick during an interview on Thursday. Her live-in caregiver immediately phoned her daughter, Paddy Munro, to let her know what was happening. Munro didn’t drive to the hospital, since she was familiar with her mother being taken to the hospital for precautionary reasons. Given the late hour, she assumed she would visit first thing in the morning. Fitzpatrick was rushed to the emergency where nurses read her blood pressure, added an intravenous drip, and did blood tests and X-rays. After she was declared stable, Fitzpatrick thought she was going to get a hospital bed for the night. “I was trying to go to sleep, I was so tired,� she said. But when Munro called the hospital at 7 a.m. to ask if she could pick up her mother, she was shocked by the answer of the person on the other end. “The person said she had departed emergency,� said Munro, who was flabbergasted. “That’s

not a term you want to hear associated with a hospital. And I said, ‘pardon?’ “ She was transferred to another person who informed her that the discharge had happened at around 2 a.m. Munro hung up the phone and called her mother. She couldn’t believe it when she answered. It was around 2 a.m. when hospital nurses told Fitzpatrick she was being discharged and rolled her in a wheelchair to the waiting room as they called a cab. “I was saying that I was freezing to death because I was so cold with no shoes,� said Fitzpatrick. A nurse took sympa-
thy on her and gave her a white sheet to wrap around her shoulders, she added. When the taxi arrived she said she walked out in the pouring rain and wind in nothing more than hospital socks. Since she didn’t have any money for the taxi ride, she asked the hospital to call her caregiver to scrounge up some change. Fitzpatrick was worried she wouldn’t be able to pay for the ride when she got home. During the ride, Fitzpatrick felt something wet in the taxi and figured it was just water from the rain. But when she got home her caregiver spotted the sheet, which was covered in blood. The blood flow from intravenous drip

FIRE PREVENTION & SAFETY with ignition of food or other cooking materials. • Ranges accounted for the 58% of home cooking fire incidents. Ovens accounted for 16%. • Children under five face a higher risk of non-fire burns associated with cooking than being burned in a cooking fire. • Microwave ovens are one of the leading home products associated with scald burn injuries not related to fires. Nearly half (44%) of the microwave oven injuries seen at emergency rooms in 2011 were scald burns. • Clothing was the item first ignited in less than 1% of home cooking fires, but these incidents accounted for 16% of the cooking fire deaths.
Surrey's fire-prevention program is smoking hot
Black Press Surrey’s longstanding smoke alarm strategy is saving lives – and garnering global praise. The City of Surrey’s approach to fire prevention through a targeted smoke alarm giveaway program has significantly reduced fires and fire losses in the city, and has received an international award. Earlier this year, Surrey was awarded a 2013 Community Health and Safety Program Excellence Award by the International City/ County Management Association (ICMA) – which represents 9,000 local government managers around the world – for its HomeSafe program. Surrey is the only Canadian city on this year’s recipient list. Launched in 2008, HomeSafe uses local fire and demographic data to target fire hot spots for door-to-door firefighter visits and smoke alarm giveaways. Formal evaluation of its first two years showed a 64-per-cent reduction in the annual rate of fires for HomeSafe houses – approximately 4.4 times greater than the reduction (15 per cent) observed in other highrisk homes over the same period. The program also cut fire losses in half, increased smoke alarm activations by 169 per cent, and reduced fire size and spread. HomeSafe identifies Surrey neighbourhoods with the greatest fire risk and to date has sent firefighters to more than 40,000 homes to educate residents about fire safety and offer to
install a free smoke alarm. The cost-effective program leverages existing resources and community sponsorship, and can be easily adapted by other communities. The ICMA’s Community Health and Safety Program Excellence Awards recognize local government programs or processes that demonstrate innovation, excellence, and success in the community’s safety, health and/ or wellness, including enhancement in the quality of life for the disadvantaged. Surrey received its award at the ICMA annual conference in Boston, Mass.last month. Surrey’s HomeSafe program has also served as a launching point for a provincewide working smoke alarm campaign, coordinated by the Fire Chiefs’ Association of B.C. and supported by the provincial government. Launched in March 2012, the campaign is already exceeding expectations, with 44 per cent fewer residential fire deaths and 5.1 per cent fewer residential fires reported in its first year. • Free inspections and smoke alarms The Surrey Fire Department offers free home inspections and free smoke alarms to those who need it. The program is fully paid for by corporate sponsors. Order an inspection by calling 604-543-6700. Information and resources about working smoke alarms can be found at: www. workingsmokealarms.ca
2013 Fire Prevention Week is all about preventing kitchen fires. Thirtythree percent of all fires in BC start in the kitchen. In fact, more fires start in the kitchen than in any other room of the house. Stay in the kitchen when you are frying, grilling, broiling of boiling food. • If you must leave the kitchen, even for a short time, turn off the stove. • When you are simmering, baking, or roasting food, check it regularly, stay home and use a timer to remind yourself. • If you have young children, use the stove's back burners whenever possible. Keep children and pets at least three feet away from the stove. • When you cook, wear clothing with tightfitting sleeves. • Keep potholders, oven mitts, wooden utensils, paper or plastic bags, towels or anything else that can burn away from your stovetop. • Clean up food and grease from the burners, stovetops and the oven. • Don't store combustibles in drawer below the oven.
HOME FIRES • In 2011, U.S. fire departments responded to 370,000 home structure fires. These fires caused 13,910 civilian injuries, 2,520 civilian deaths, $6.9 billion in direct damage. • On average, seven people die in U.S. home fires per day. • Cooking is the leading cause home fires and home fire injuries, followed heating equipment. Smoking is a leading cause of civilian home fire deaths. • Most fatal fires kill one or two people. In 2011, 12 home fires killed five or more people resulting in a total of 67 deaths.
HEATING • The leading factor contributing to heating equipment fires was failure to clean, principally creosote from solid fueled heating equipment, primarily chimneys. • Portable or fixed space heaters, including wood stoves, were involved in one-third (32%) of home heating fires and four out of five (80%) home heating deaths. • Half of home heating fire deaths resulted from fires caused by heating equipment too close to things that can burn, such as upholstered furniture, clothing, mattresses or bedding. • In most years, heating is the second
COOKING • U.S. Fire Departments responded to an estimated annual average of 156,600 cooking-related fires between 2007-2011, resulting in 400 civilian deaths, 5,080 civilian injuries and $853 million in direct damage. • Two of every five home fires start in the kitchen. • Unattended cooking was a factor in 34% of reported home cooking fires. • Two-thirds of home cooking fires started

Ovens accounted for 16%. • Children under five face a higher risk of non-fire burns associated with cooking than being burned in a cooking fire. • Microwave ovens are one of the leading home products associated with scald burn injuries not related to fires. Nearly half (44%) of the microwave oven injuries seen at emergency rooms in 2011 were scald burns. • Clothing was the item first ignited in less than 1% of home cooking fires, but these incidents accounted for 16% of the cooking fire deaths.
Surrey's fire-prevention program is smoking hot
Black Press Surrey’s longstanding smoke alarm strategy is saving lives – and garnering global praise. The City of Surrey’s approach to fire prevention through a targeted smoke alarm giveaway program has significantly reduced fires and fire losses in the city, and has received an international award. Earlier this year, Surrey was awarded a 2013 Community Health and Safety Program Excellence Award by the International City/ County Management Association (ICMA) – which represents 9,000 local government managers around the world – for its HomeSafe program. Surrey is the only Canadian city on this year’s recipient list. Launched in 2008, HomeSafe uses local fire and demographic data to target fire hot spots for door-to-door firefighter visits and smoke alarm giveaways. Formal evaluation of its first two years showed a 64-per-cent reduction in the annual rate of fires for HomeSafe houses – approximately 4.4 times greater than the reduction (15 per cent) observed in other highrisk homes over the same period. The program also cut fire losses in half, increased smoke alarm activations by 169 per cent, and reduced fire size and spread. HomeSafe identifies Surrey neighbourhoods with the greatest fire risk and to date has sent firefighters to more than 40,000 homes to educate residents about fire safety and offer to
install a free smoke alarm. The cost-effective program leverages existing resources and community sponsorship, and can be easily adapted by other communities. The ICMA’s Community Health and Safety Program Excellence Awards recognize local government programs or processes that demonstrate innovation, excellence, and success in the community’s safety, health and/ or wellness, including enhancement in the quality of life for the disadvantaged. Surrey received its award at the ICMA annual conference in Boston, Mass.last month. Surrey’s HomeSafe program has also served as a launching point for a provincewide working smoke alarm campaign, coordinated by the Fire Chiefs’ Association of B.C. and supported by the provincial government. Launched in March 2012, the campaign is already exceeding expectations, with 44 per cent fewer residential fire deaths and 5.1 per cent fewer residential fires reported in its first year. • Free inspections and smoke alarms The Surrey Fire Department offers free home inspections and free smoke alarms to those who need it. The program is fully paid for by corporate sponsors. Order an inspection by calling 604-543-6700. Information and resources about working smoke alarms can be found at: www. workingsmokealarms.ca
2013 Fire Prevention Week is all about preventing kitchen fires. Thirtythree percent of all fires in BC start in the kitchen. In fact, more fires start in the kitchen than in any other room of the house. Stay in the kitchen when you are frying, grilling, broiling of boiling food. • If you must leave the kitchen, even for a short time, turn off the stove. • When you are simmering, baking, or roasting food, check it regularly, stay home and use a timer to remind yourself. • If you have young children, use the stove's back burners whenever possible. Keep children and pets at least three feet away from the stove. • When you cook, wear clothing with tightfitting sleeves. • Keep potholders, oven mitts, wooden utensils, paper or plastic bags, towels or anything else that can burn away from your stovetop. • Clean up food and grease from the burners, stovetops and the oven. • Don't store combustibles in drawer below the oven.
HOME FIRES • In 2011, U.S. fire departments responded to 370,000 home structure fires. These fires caused 13,910 civilian injuries, 2,520 civilian deaths, $6.9 billion in direct damage. • On average, seven people die in U.S. home fires per day. • Cooking is the leading cause home fires and home fire injuries, followed heating equipment. Smoking is a leading cause of civilian home fire deaths. • Most fatal fires kill one or two people. In 2011, 12 home fires killed five or more people resulting in a total of 67 deaths.
HEATING • The leading factor contributing to heating equipment fires was failure to clean, principally creosote from solid fueled heating equipment, primarily chimneys. • Portable or fixed space heaters, including wood stoves, were involved in one-third (32%) of home heating fires and four out of five (80%) home heating deaths. • Half of home heating fire deaths resulted from fires caused by heating equipment too close to things that can burn, such as upholstered furniture, clothing, mattresses or bedding. • In most years, heating is the second
COOKING • U.S. Fire Departments responded to an estimated annual average of 156,600 cooking-related fires between 2007-2011, resulting in 400 civilian deaths, 5,080 civilian injuries and $853 million in direct damage. • Two of every five home fires start in the kitchen. • Unattended cooking was a factor in 34% of reported home cooking fires. • Two-thirds of home cooking fires started

Massey’s son aims to protect tunnel Petition started to retain the George Massey Tunnel after the new Delta bridge is built by Adrian MacNair
THE SON of the man widely credited for Delta’s first Fraser River crossing into Richmond wants to see his father’s life work saved from demolition. Doug Massey, a former municipal councillor, says he doesn’t want the new bridge renamed after his father, George Massey. “It doesn’t reflect my father’s wishes or dreams,” he said. “He wasn’t responsible for a bridge being built, he was responsible for the tunnel being built.” Massey has started an online petition to retain the George Massey Tunnel after the new crossing is built and it has received 83 signatures since Sept. 23. He plans on beginning a paper petition as well. If the tunnel is saved it could be used as a direct access from Ladner to Richmond and also as an express route for emergency vehicles, said Massey. “The present tunnel doesn’t allow for bicycles but if you left it you could have one lane for pedestrians and bicycles and the other for rapid transit,” he said. Massey has numerous concerns about the new bridge, including the length of approach that will be required
for elevation gain and whether the tunnel will have to be closed during construction on the same footprint. “As far as I’m concerned a tunnel would be more logical for that section of the area because the ground level is so flat,” said Massey. It’s an opinion that was passed down to him from his father. When George Massey arrived in Delta from Ireland in 1936 he would take the ferry from Captain’s Cove to Richmond and ask people why there wasn’t a tunnel from Deas Island. That idea went against the conventional wisdom at the time–that a bridge would eventually be built there, an idea supported by local businesses and the New Westminster Harbour Board. But George Massey worked tirelessly to convince the people of Delta and Richmond that a tunnel made the most sense because it would have a much smaller footprint than a bridge, and he devoted the rest of his life to seeing it happen. Massey’s plans for the tunnel were inspired by the construction of the Maastunnel in Rotterdam, Netherlands. He formed the Lower Fraser River Crossing Improvement Association and developed maps explaining why a tunnel
Man guilty in identity thefts by Kevin Diakiw A SURREY man has pleaded guilty to six offences in
relation to what police call an “identity theft factory.” In May, Surrey RCMP searched a home in the 18000-block of 96 Avenue, dismantling the identity theft operation. At the time, investigators believed fake credit cards were being manufactured from stolen identities. Hundreds of stolen and fake cards and pieces of identification were seized, including credit cards, gift cards, Social Insurance Number cards, BCID cards, B.C. driver’s licences, CareCards, birth certificates, and Canadian passports. Investigators also seized stolen mail, cheques and identification, as well as documents that contained stolen personal identification and information on them. On Sept. 13, Surrey’s Timothy Bradly Moisan, 40, pleaded guilty to six offences in relation to the operation. The offences include three counts of possession of stolen property, possess instruments to forge/falsify credit cards, identity theft, and deal with identity theft without lawful excuse. “Understanding the impact that identity theft and frauds can have on their victims, the successful conclusion of this investigation is extremely rewarding,” said Surrey RCMP Staff-Sgt Marty Blais. Moisan was sentenced to a two-year conditional sentence order and two months of probation.
made the most sense. After being elected MLA to represent Delta in 1956 he managed to convince the legislature, too. In 1967, three years after his death, Richmond city council led the call to rename the tunnel to honour George Massey’s work. Doug Massey said he agrees that Delta needs another crossing but had assumed it would be from Tilbury Island. He said the tunnel was designed to last 100 years and still has

a lot of use left. The only problem is that it was designed to traffic conditions in 1959 and doesn’t have enough lanes, he added. Doug Massey said the new bridge is only being built so the channel can be dredged deeper for coal and oil exports. “The intended purpose should always be to move people but it’s for ships and trucks,” he said, adding the tunnel is a road block for the federal and provincial government to
move raw materials. On Sept. 20, Premier Christy Clark announced a new bridge will replace the Massey Tunnel and work will begin in 2017. Although no announcement has been made on tolls, they are expected to be implemented as they were for the Golden Ears and Port Mann bridges. The Massey Tunnel opened with tolls in 1959 and continued until the construction costs were paid off in 1964.

Split on the Island drops Hawks to third Win, loss for Major Midget team in Victoria by Rick Kupchuk THEY WERE looking
for a sweep to stay atop the BC Hockey Major Midget League standings, but the Valley West Hawks dropped a 5-3 decision to the South Island Royals Sunday morning in Victoria, and settled for a split of their two-game series on Vancouver Island. The loss dropped the Hawks’ record to 2-4 (won-lost), and with both the Okanagan Rockets and Vancouver Giants winning twice on the weekend to improve to 5-1, Valley West now sits third in
the 11-team league for elite 15-17 year-old players. The Hawks fell behind early in Sunday’s game but couldn’t pull even with the home side, which was looking for its first win after drive losses to start the season. A pair of goals in the final five minutes of the opening period gave the Royals a 2-0 lead after 20 minutes. It was 3-0 midway through the game before Luke Gingras of Langley netted the first score of the game for Valley West, then five minutes later Matt Bradley of Surrey

White Rock’s Davis Koch tallied with six minutes to go to put Valley West within one for the second time in the game, but an empty net goal in the final minute clinched the first win of the season for the Royals. Koch also had an assist, while Surrey’s Paul Savage and Eric Callegari of Langley each had a pair of assists. In Saturday night’s win, it was Valley West taking an early 2-0 lead and staying in front the rest of the way. Surrey forward Mitch Newsome and Bradley opened the scoring, and after South Island got their first of the game, Savage made it 3-1. The Royals made it 3-2 after one period, and traded goals with Valley West in the second, with Paul Smith of White Rock scoring for the Hawks. Jesse Lansdell (Langley) and Jordan Funk (Cloverdale) found the net for the Hawks in the third period. Funk also had two assists to finish with a gamehigh three points.

Winless weekend for Eagles
Delta Police Board Appointment
Junior A team loses three straight, falls to fourth By Nick Greenizan
PLAYING THREE games in three nights is a tall order for any hockey team, and last weekend the task was too tough for the Surrey Eagles. The defending BCHL champs dropped all three games of their Mainland Division triple-header, falling twice to the Langley Rivermen – on Friday, 4-3, and Saturday, 5-1 – before losing 5-1 to the Coquitlam Express Sunday evening at South Surrey Arena. “It was obviously not the results we wanted in any of the three games,” said Eagles head coach/ general manager Peter Schaefer. The three losses dropped the Eagles below .500 for the first time this season – they sport a 5-6 win-loss record – and they’re now fourth in the Mainland Divison, five points back of the first-place Rivermen. And while playing three in a row can be a grueling endeavour, Schaefer insisted that fatigue wasn’t part of the problem. In fact, he said the reason for the loss was, ironically, that his team didn’t really play three full games. “We just never put a full 60 minutes together any of the nights,” he said. “We would have spurts here and there where we played well, but it wasn’t enough.” Surrey’s best effort, according to the first-year head coach, came
in Sunday’s loss to Coquitlam in which the Eagles outshot the visitors 43-32, but could only beat Express goaltender Gordie Defiel once – a Nic Pierog shorthanded marker in the final minute of the second period. “Our best game was definitely the third one, so I can’t really explain that,” Schaefer said. “It might’ve been a bit of desperation, and guys not wanting to lose (three in a row). But that’s how we’re going to have to play if we want to win.”
“It was obviously not the results we wanted...” Peter Schaefer In Friday’s 4-3 loss to Langley, the Rivermen pounced on the home team and led 4-1 after 40 minutes, before Surrey mounted a comeback in the third period, scoring twice – Danton Heinen notched a power-play goal 3:29 into the third, and captain Brett Mulcahy made it 4-3 with just 11 seconds left in the game. The Eagles’ first goal was scored by Pierog, who also assisted on Heinen’s tally.
Victor Adamo was between the pipes for Surrey, stopping 21 of 25 Langley shots. On Saturday, the two clubs renewed hostilities in Langley, and the game was much the same, with the Rivermen jumping out to a lead and holding on for the win. James Robinson had three assists for Langley, and Austin Azurdia and Will Cook each had a goal and an assist. The Eagles’ lone goal came from Michael Roberts, who scored five minutes into the third period. Being the reigning Fred Page Cup champions has also put a target on the Eagles’ backs through the opening month of the season, Schaefer added – giving his players even more motivation to play their best. “It’s not going to be easy for us in any game – teams are ready for us,” he said. “And we’ve had a few different individuals step up in different games, but that’s not enough. At the end of the day, we didn’t get any points this weekend, so we all have to be better.” The Eagles will have the opportunity to get back into the win column Friday, but it won’t be easy – they host the Powell River Kings, who currently lead the BCHL’s Island Division with an 8-1 record. On Saturday, Surrey returns to the Langley Events Centre for another game against the Rivermen.
