Committee members – joined by mayor, councillor – hear announcement in Colombia

Surrey wins 2016 world fastpitch bid Nick Greenizan Staff Reporter

The 2016 Women’s World Fastpitch Championships have been awarded to Surrey. The announcement was made Friday at the conclusion of the International Softball Federation’s congress in Cartegena, Colombia. Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts and Coun. Tom Gill joined members of the Canadian

Open Fastpitch International Championship committee – headed up by Greg Timm – in Colombia, and the committee made the announcement on Twitter and via a flurry of text messages. “We got it – I just got a text from Greg. The (ISF) called it ‘an exemplary bid.’ It’s pretty exciting, and I can tell all the guys down there are excited, too,” Chuck Westgard, a

member of the bid committee who did not make the trip south, told Peace Arch News. “It’s the first-ever world championship for Surrey, so it’s big – it’s big for the city and for softball in B.C.” In Colombia, the bid committee made a handful of presentations to the ISF congress throughout the week, and a final vote among the ISF’s more-than-130 members was held

Friday morning. “Developing our bid was 18 months of work on behalf of the bid committee, and winning today is incredibly exciting,” Timm said in a news release sent Friday afternoon. “This is the premier tournament in our sport, and bringing it home to Surrey and Canada is an incredibly proud moment.” i see page 4

North Island tragedy

New life sought for sea fest

Plane crash claims resident

Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

Efforts are underway to once again breathe new life into White Rock’s longstanding annual waterfront festival. Those rallying support for the next incarnation of the Spirit of the Sea Festival say while discussions are still in the early stages, anyone interested in getting involved is encouraged to step forward. “There is interest in, specifically, trying to pull together a celebration next year, and it’s really in regards to the 65th anniversary,” said Brian Hagerman, a longtime White Rock resident who was involved in the festival about 25 years ago. “The interest from myself and others is to see if there is a way to put together the society in a format that would really sort of celebrate that 65th anniversary, and get the full support of the city and the residents for a summer event.” Hagerman said a group of about 10 people has been meeting since mid-August – shortly after the last festival wrapped up – to explore the options, and they expect to have a new society established in the next three weeks. Creating something sustainable will take time, money and people, he said. i see page 4

A Peninsula man was one of three people killed Thursday in a floatplane crash off the northeastern tip of Vancouver Island. According to the Transportation Safety Board, the Cessna 185 carrying the trio went down as it was preparing to land near a logging camp. It hit a hillside about 20 metres from the shoreline. While several witnesses rushed to the scene – a densely wooded area near Potts Lagoon, off of Port McNeill – there was nothing they could do. At the request of family, Peace Arch News is not yet naming the Peninsula victim. Volunteers from Campbell River Search and Rescue were called to help remove the bodies. Search manager Grant Cromer said the effort posed a number of hazards, including the possibility there was still fuel onboard. “We have attended numerous plane crashes in the last few years and dealing with the terrain and i see page 4

Shooting fatality Police have identified Satwant Singh Bains as Surrey’s 19th homicide victim. The 35-year-old was found shot to death early Friday in his driveway. The incident took place in a residential neighbourhood near 156 Street and 86 Avenue. According to a news release, Bains said goodbye to his wife and children before heading to work. He walked out his door, entered his vehicle and moments later was shot to death. Surrey RCMP and paramedics arrived to find his body in his vehicle. The incident is being described as a targeted shooting, however, - Bains does not have a criminal record and was not known to police. A neighbour told CTV he heard about three gunshots at approximately 5 a.m. and then heard a car leaving the scene. The integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT) is investigating. Anyone with information is asked to call the IHIT tip line at 1-877-557-4448 or, to remain anonymous, Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS.

White Rock approached by First Nation investors, Baldwin says

Mayor wary of satellite-reserve proposal Alex Browne Staff Reporter

White Rock Mayor Wayne Baldwin said approaches received by the city from potential First Nations investors indicate any community might feel the impact of a proposed federal policy change allowing satellite aboriginal reserves. He said that – while not at liberty to discuss specific proposals received by White Rock – he is concerned the proposed satellite reserve policy would prove divisive. Baldwin was among members of Metro Vancouver’s board voting last week to lodge objections to Ottawa’s proposal to revise its additions-to-reserve policy. Critics say the changes would let aboriginal

groups buy property in any city and then convert it to reserve land, which is exempt from local zoning and other municipal rules. In the past, new land given reserve status generally had to adjoin existing reserves. That restriction would be lifted under the policy proposed, and bands would get more scope to use it for economic development. Baldwin suggested that, under the policy change, a First Nation that bought Pacific Centre mall in downtown Vancouver, and gained reserve status for it, would suddenly control an “ultra-competitive” special taxation zone where merchants’ costs might be much lower, creating uncertainty for nearby properties and businesses. “No one has talked about the issue of taxa-

tion,” he added. “If you get reserve rules should be the same as they are status I expect you would have the for everybody else. attendant taxation relief. “To be able to expand and apply “That could be quite significant – a separate set of rules doesn’t seem it does create a potential problem. right to me,” he said If merchants within that area can Delta Mayor Lois Jackson also supreduce their prices it may cause some ported the Metro Vancouver motion, difficulties for other competitors saying the change in federal policy who are not within the same block.” could create a situation in which Baldwin said he sees no problem a band from northern B.C. could Wayne Baldwin with First Nations establishing satelbuy up a city block in downtown mayor lite areas as private-property owners.

Brown testifies he ‘came to’ covered in blood

Accused says he was victim in violent attack Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

A man accused of brutally assaulting a White Rock businessman with a hammer and a pipe wrench testified Friday that he was the one who was attacked during the incident at a South Surrey property four years ago. Taking the stand at B.C. Supreme Court in New Westminster, Darryl Gordon Brown also told Justice R. Crawford that he remembers next to nothing of what transpired after Fred Edrissi hit him in the arm with a grinder and on the head with a pipe wrench – other than seeing “stars,” and wrestling with Edrissi on the ground. “I don’t remember anything after that. I came to at a Washworld in Surrey, covered in blood and vomit,” Brown said. Brown, 47, has pleaded not guilty to aggravated assault, assault with a weapon and robbery in connec-

The trial got underway in September 2012. At that time, Edrissi testified that a “broken hand, broken knee, broken skull, broken ribs” were among injuries he suffered in the attack, which, he said, occurred while waiting for mechanical work to be done on his minivan. Edrissi told the court that Brown hit him several times in the head with a hammer or pipe wrench and had tried to strangle him with a grinder cord. The court also heard last year from Sheri-Lyn Brown, who was married to the accused at the time of the incident. She testified she witnessed much of what transpired between Edrissi and her husband, and that she believed at the time that her husband had killed Edrissi. On Friday, prosecutor Jas Gahunia suggested to Darryl Brown that he, out of anger, struck Edrissi from behind with a hammer and a pipe wrench – a scenario he

denied. “There’s no way that I went up and hit him,” he said. Brown, a mechanic, said the incident occurred on the last of five visits Edrissi made to the property that day regarding work he wanted done on his van. On the earlier visits, discussion had covered the cost of the work, parts that needed to be picked up and a request from Brown for Edrissi to return later, as he was spending some rare alone time with his wife, he said. Brown said that immediately prior to Edrissi hitting him, Edrissi was “ranting” about having already paid for the work. Brown said Edrissi didn’t understand that he had paid for the parts needed but not the labour. “He wouldn’t listen that he had not paid me,” he said. “He said ‘bullsh-t’ about 20 times.” Brown said Edrissi swung the tools at him when he reached

around Edrissi to grab the keys to the minivan, which were needed in order for him to do the requested work. Brown said he told Edrissi at that time that he’d return the keys once he’d been paid the $50 he was owed for the labour, but that he never intended to actually withhold the keys. “It was just something to say,” he said. Brown said Edrissi swung first with the grinder, then with the pipe wrench, hitting him in the left forearm and on the right side of his head, near the hairline. “I could see stars floating around, then tunnel vision, then that’s it.” Brown said he never attended a hospital for his injuries, didn’t report the incident to police and never returned to the property where it occurred. Gahunia and defence counsel Jeremy Fung are to make closing arguments on Friday.

Murder & Mystery Dinner Mayhem

Canadian Open to take ’16 hiatus i from page 1 The world championships are set to take place in July 2016 and will likely coincide with Surrey’s Fusion Festival, according to the news release. For one year, the tournament will replace the Canadian Open, which is played each summer in

South Surrey and Cloverdale. The world championships have been held in Canada just twice before – in 1994 in St. John’s, Nfld. and in 2012 in Whitehorse. Westgard expected the process of organizing such a large event to be a grueling one. He said he and other supporters were able

to take a celebratory breather Friday. “It was a lot of hard work to put this together, and this was only the first part of it. We’ve got three years to go, and it’ll go by fast, but we’ve got Greg at the helm, so it’s lot of work, but we know we’ll be fine,” Westgard told PAN.

Past festivals faced challenges i from page 1 The latter two were key challenges faced this year, in particular, by those involved with the Community of Lights Events Society. That volunteer group formed in the late 1990s to reincarnate the festival after the previous organizing group dissolved in the wake of fraud charges against its former president. Hagerman said overcoming the negativity that still exists from all those years ago was a hurdle for the Community of Lights Events Society, and remains a hurdle going forward. “If it had run without incident for the last 25 years, I think that it almost wouldn’t be a story that some people are thinking that they would like to get involved,” he said.

Tragedy i from page 1 the logistics of recovering subjects is the hardest part,” Cromer said in a news release. “This last crash was in a very remote area and required specialized skills to perform a safe recovery. “Small aircraft made of aluminum often shred on impact and we are faced with a pile of razor blades to work around,” he added. “Not accounting for the tree hazards and fuel/explosion issues… recoveries from aircraft are one of the most dangerous things we do.” Two volunteers cut away the trees and branch limbs while another pair – a machinist and millwright by trade – were able to determine what parts of the plane to cut off in order to safely access the cabin. Investigation into the crash is ongoing. “No one likes to get the call that we are on the way to recover a deceased subject, but we all do it knowing that those people deserve an opportunity to be brought back so loved ones can find some closure,” Cromer said. The B.C. Coroner’s Service was expected to release further information Monday afternoon, after PAN’s press deadline.

White Rock Youth Ambassadors participate in the 2013 parade. The “door is open” for Community of Lights Events Society volunteers to join in the new group, Hagerman added, noting the aim is to build on elements that worked and learn from those that didn’t. Invitations have also been extended to existing groups such as swim clubs and Rotary groups to take ownership of specific

elements of the festival, so that everything doesn’t fall on the laps of one small group of organizers. The City of White Rock’s involvement would be integral, Hagerman said. Anyone wanting to get involved may contact Hagerman at 604536-5634. The next meeting is being planned for late November.

Speaker search delays summit Kevin Diakiw Black Press

The Surrey Regional Economic Summit (SRES) has been delayed for a few months because the city couldn’t find the keynote speaker it wanted for the event. The city had been wooing former U.S. Secretary of State Hilary Clinton, but at the last

minute, that plan didn’t work out. The SRES has now been pushed forward to February 2014, and Coun. Linda Hepner says another speaker has nearly been secured for the event. Previous speakers have included former U.S. presidents Bill Clinton and George

Bush, former British prime minister Tony Blair, billionaire Richard Branson and former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani. “We were looking for a speaker as significant as we have had before,” Hepner said Thursday. She said she couldn’t confirm who the city was courting for

the February event, but noted Surrey had been criticized before for being too close to the U.S., so the speaker will be coming from elsewhere. “There will be a more international flavour to it,” Hepner said. She said the city will announce who the speaker is in about three to four weeks.

Online voting only a matter of time

ur municipalities and province likely won’t be using Internet voting to help determine election results anytime soon. But that doesn’t mean we won’t eventually be using such a method to cast our ballots in future. An independent panel tasked by Elections B.C. to study Internet voting recommended this week that any such system not be implemented in time for the upcoming municipal election, nor the next B.C. vote. But it did suggest that a technical committee be struck to look into the matter further and that the legislature should support jurisdictions that wish to pursue the option in future. The preliminary report released in midOctober offered less than lukewarm support for the idea. It confirmed that making voting easier for people in this way – those who are incapacitated, can’t work a trip to their local polling station into their schedule, or are too lazy to do so come to mind – has not been shown in other jurisdictions to significantly increase voter turnout. As for the large group of people who feel their vote doesn’t matter, or don’t care enough to vote in the first place, they present another challenge altogether, one likely not solvable with online voting. Increasing voter turnout at any level still comes down to individuals and parties doing the legwork and convincing non-voters of the importance of getting engaged in their communities, and potentially making a difference through casting their ballot. That said, the world is fast becoming an all-digital environment, where computers and cellphones can be used for virtually any transaction. While the report states the current system of voting is trusted by those who vote, that factor will become less meaningful as time goes on and generations that have grown up with technology become our communities’ core voters. We may not have the most efficient or system-improving Internet voting experiences to draw from yet, but now is the best time to begin investigating this option, to be ready for when it is the best alternative.

media with her soup strike, former Liberal leader Bob Rae suggested a nearby diamond mine should share more revenue. Milke omits the substantial support and employment that mine provides, and glosses over the misguided blockades that disrupted that and other jobcreating enterprises. But he does detail the disastrous effects of passive resource wealth bestowed on impoverished aboriginal communities, and contrasts it with success stories of reserves that build their own enterprises through hard work. On public-sector pensions: Milke notes that historically, public employees traded higher wages for better benefits and job security. Now their wages are generally higher, and taxpayers have to cover their personal pension contributions (as a portion of those wages) as well as the employer contributions, plus the “defined benefit” payout, which has to be subsidized far beyond what the pension fund can support. On the debt-financed welfare state, there are memorable observations, like this one: “For the record, the generous Quebec welfare state and its ostensibly more progressive model are paid for in part with the taxes of other Canadians; Quebec is merely the North American equivalent of Greece.” The recent B.C. political crisis over adoption of the harmonized sales tax showed that there is too much emotion and too little knowledge about how taxes work. This book is a step towards addressing that.

Brighter solution

Rail movement long discussed

Editor: Re: Tour of White Rock’s track, Oct. 15. I read with interest that the City of White Rock and BNSF officials are now looking to identify options for improving pedestrian safety along White Rock’s waterfront rail line. Not only should it be safe for locals, but also for visitors who may not be aware of the train tracks. At most places, the trains’ rail line is guarded by black guardrails along the promenade. In the daylight, it’s obvious that train rails exists on the other side of the guardrail and that they – the guardrails – offer some warning to not enter the track area. In addition to the guardrails, there are also signs indicating it is unsafe and against the law to enter. But in the evenings and at night, the black guardrails are harder to distinguish from the track area. In some dimly lit areas, not only are the warning signs difficult to see, so are the guardrails themselves because of their lack of color. Their blackness give the impression that whatever is on the other side mustn’t be dangerous. If the purpose of this guardrail is to keep persons from crossing into the train track area, it should be visible all the time; not just the day. The promenade should be safe for evening and night visitors from other areas who may not know about the train tracks. Tony Roy, White Rock

Editor: In light of the most recent train derailment in Gainford, Alta., on Oct. 19 – is this the fourth since this summer in Canada? – and the horrendous situation with oil products burning out of control, I think it is only fitting that we quickly readjust our thinking and aim for the fastest possible relocation for the tracks that pass through our highly populated areas of White Rock and South Surrey. No one wants the guilt associated with the tragedy of Lac-Mégantic visited upon us here in B.C. This is not a new idea. Many people have been working on and discussing this very critical safety

Infrastructure not in place Editor: Re: Arts centre eyed, Oct. 15; Residents target towers, Oct. 17. Did anyone think about what traffic this will bring to the already overloaded streets? As much as I would love to have a centre for the arts etc., we do not have the infrastructure for this kind of development. Can the hospital cope with possible patients from two more highrises? I live close to 20 Avenue and l54 Street and we have seen a huge increase of traffic with the new construction in that area alone. J. Koloska, Surrey

Tunnel still has potential Editor: Re: Bridge vote sought, Sept. 26. I grew up in the Detroit/Windsor area where there is a bridge and tunnel connecting the cities. I fail to see why both cannot be used in this area. It would be a pity to tear out the tunnel for a new bridge, when it is still potentially useful. Eleanor Peddle, Surrey

situation for many, many years. There are maps and detailed studies with various solutions. Please restart the government movement to make this once jewel of Canada again a place where one and all can walk on the beaches and feel the wonder and the safety of what it means to live in Canada. Susan Potzold, White Rock

Take steps to stop traffic Editor: Re: Crossings to get traffic lights, Oct. 17. I read that there are more crosswalk lights coming to 148 Street to ensure safer crossing for the students. Two things came to mind:

1) Please do not install any more lights like the one that is now at the corner of 148 Street and 17 Avenue. I don’t know who is responsible for the design of this type of pedestrian crosswalk, but as a pedestrian, I can assure you that I never feel very safe using it, as I have no idea if the cars are going to stop or not because I can’t see if the lights have been activated. 2) If it is necessary that two more lights be installed to ensure the safety of the students, perhaps some education about safety should be re-introduced at the schools first. Perhaps a strong reminder that no matter your age, it is very important to look first before crossing any street, and not just stepping out there and expecting that because you are a student, all drivers will stop every 30 seconds to accommodate you. C.J. Mitton, White Rock

Hunters respond to a letter writer who questioned what he should tell his grandson when they hear their gunfire.

An easy, ethical hunting answer Editor: Re: Different blasts for the birds, Oct. 22 letters. I tire of the pervasive attitude than has crept quite deep into society the past few years – the one that moved people to try to get another’s hobby, pastime or activity banned if it is not in their own taste, style or desire. Letter-writer Brian Lauder writes about how he is to explain to his grandchildren what is going on when they hear shotguns in the distance. Let me help him: “Well grandson/granddaughter, what is happening is what has been going on here for many generations – hunting of waterfowl. In fact, it has been going on here since the 1800s and perhaps longer, much longer than I have lived here, and it will go on long after I am gone. It is a proud Canadian tradition that is passed down from generation to generation. In fact, there might be a grandfather down there teaching his grandson or granddaughter this tradition.” We live on the Great Pacific Flyway, where the waterfowl population is extremely healthy and robust, numbering in the tens of millions, with far less than one per cent being taken by hunters. Communities that do not allow hunting are now overrun by Canada geese, destroying park land and making fields unusable. Ethical hunting is a safe and legitimate pastime for over a million Canadians and has been a part of the fabric of Canada since there was a Canada. An ethical hunter is a conservationist, with the largest group that protects bird habitat being Ducks Unlimited – which set aside the bird preserve in Serpentine Fen, was established by waterfowl hunters, and its paying members are hunters, primarily. I expect that if the letter writer objects to the

“slaughtering” of “defenceless birds,” he is a vegetarian, not even wearing leather shoes, gloves or jackets. The birds that die and wind up on my dinner table are hunted ethically, are killed quickly and have lived a free-range life, which is far more that can be said for any meat that objectors buy in the supermarket. In fact, the Vancouver Sun reported last hunting season that the largest group of new hunters are vegetarians who stopped eating meat for ethical reasons, but now turn to hunting as the animals they hunt and eat have lived a free life and are ethically killed. Which brings me to my last point – if people in society keep trying to get activities banned that they find mildly annoying, if they try to get activities banned that they find a little distasteful, even though they cause them no harm, what are you going to do when they finally find something that you enjoy in their crosshairs? You live your life, and I will live mine. Michael J. Klaver, White Rock Q Yes it is that time of year. When Canadians and New Canadians take part in our proud Canadian heritage and go hunting. I love wildlife and support their conservation, and – if not for hunters and sportsmen alike – there would be a lot less wildlife. As for my grandchildren, they see that an animal is harvested and utilized, a part of Canadian life. Maybe you should show your grandchildren where their chicken, beef and pork come from. More of the natural bird species are killed by the common house cat than licensed hunters every year. Do you own a cat? Lance Ponych, Surrey

the future referendum on TransLink funding options because the Highway 99 crossing is a provincial responsibility. The terms of the contracts run until 2022 and the requests for proposals closed Oct. 24. The advisory-services contractors are separate from the eventual later choice of a construction team to design and build the new bridge, as well as potentially finance and operate it as a broader public-private partnership. Stone said he also plans a “refresh” of the Provincial Transit Plan in the new year.

Stone said there are demands for improved transit province-wide – not just in the Lower Mainland – that cities can’t always fund themselves. He also acknowledged the challenges of different bridges in Metro being controlled by TransLink and the province, while tolling some of them but not all has raised questions about potentially reforming the province’s tolling policy. “I think a discussion at a higher level about the need to ensure our transportation and transit system is truly integrated is a discussion we need to have.”

Surrey Six trial hears from pathologist

Lawcourt barriers erected Sheila Reynolds Black Press

The media will no longer be able to take photos of people entering the Surrey Six trial in Vancouver. Barriers were erected last Tuesday, blocking the sightline between the exterior doors and the high-security courtroom entrance at B.C. Supreme Court. By law, cameras are not allowed in courthouses, but the press often takes photos through the windows. The exit from the courtroom, where the mass-murder case is expected to be heard for the next year or so, was not barricaded, so the media will still be able to see people leaving. However, for security reasons, at least one witness has been allowed to exit the courtroom by way of an interior elevator. The court heard Tuesday that Surrey’s Chris Mohan, one of two innocent bystanders in a

Pathologist Dr. John Charlesworth performed autopsies Oct. 22 and 23, 2007 on murder victims Mohan, Ed Schellenberg, Edward Narong, Ryan Bartolomeo and brothers Corey and Michael Lal, who were killed Oct. 19, 2007. Three men – Michael Le, Cody Haevischer and Matthew Johnston – are currently on trial and have pleaded not guilty to first-

degree murder and conspiracy charges in connection with the deaths. During his testimony, Charlesworth referred to photos, which were not displayed in the public court gallery. He said Mohan, 22, had bullet wounds below his ear and in his neck. While the one below the ear missed the spinal column, Charlesworth said, the other in the neck went through the spinal cord, paralyzing Mohan immediately. The doctor testified it was uncertain which of the two injuries was sustained first. Eileen Mohan, Chris’s mother, was in court Tuesday listening to the autopsy details, but left halfway through the day. Schellenberg, 55 – the second innocent bystander – was shot in the back of the head twice, Charlesworth testified earlier in the day. Either bullet would have killed him instantly, he said. The trial continues.

It came as no surprise to White Rock resident Craig Thomas that there are big plans for Fergus Watershed Park. After discovering the South Surrey green space near 168 Street and 14 Avenue while walking with his wife Carolyn, the self-taught photographer and artist noted it was teeming with potential. “It was the first time (I had been), and it looks like such a wonderful area with potential for multi-uses,” he said. “With all that pasture, I was thinking what

The park, acquired by the city in 2009 in order to protect habitat in the eco-sensitive area, will undergo a revitalization as per a master plan being worked on by city staffers, which will recommend potential recreational

Members of the Peninsula’s Muslim community gathered to celebrate Oct. 15.

Dozens gather to mark Eid Al Adha

Holy day celebrated Dozens of Semiahmoo Peninsula residents gathered at Centennial Park Leisure Centre Oct. 15 to mark Muslim holy day Eid Al Adha – known as the festival of sacrifice. Members of the White Rock Muslim Association attended the morning prayer honouring the willingness of the Prophet Ibrahim – known in Christian and Jewish texts as Abraham – to sacrifice his only

son, Ismail, as an act of submission to Allah’s command, before Allah intervened to provide Abraham with a ram to sacrifice instead. To mark the day, a lamb, goat or cow may be offered as a sacrifice, followed by visiting family and friends, eating and donating to the less fortunate.

Health and happiness at Royale Peninsula A

t Royale Peninsula Retirement Residence, residents enjoy new freedom, with a world of options at their fingertips in a luxurious setting. The plan at the Royale Peninsula is to provide a platform of good health, which goes far beyond diet and physical exercise. The approach taken with staff and residents provides for all aspects of basic human needs, seen as elements of a whole, in an effort to achieve happiness and balance. Because every individual has different goals for a healthy lifestyle, the Royale Peninsula provides the foundation for its residents, empowering them to provide the direction. There are four main components to the retirement resort’s Holistic Health approach. The first of these addresses the social, emotional and spiritual side of good health. At the Royale Peninsula, residents enjoy the company of their peers in a warm community that makes it easy for them to connect through

a variety of programming and common amenity space. Guided by their unique ‘Zest for Life’ philosophy, individual residents are made the focus of all of the services offered at the Royale Peninsula, from service delivery to program design and dining offerings. “Our recreation staff will make every effort to find out what makes each resident tick,” says Kim Fitzpatrick, Leisure Consultant, Retirement and Long Term Care “Is there something you wish you were able to try, but haven’t had the time? Or something you used to enjoy, and would like to experience again? Let us help reconnect you with a past hobby, recreate a meaningful experience, or fulfill a lifelong dream.” The second aspect of the Royale Peninsula’s holistic wellness approach is physical health. The on-site Recreation Manager, Diane, – also a licensed osteofit instructor – creates customized fitness plans for residents upon request. There are a selection of drop-in fitness classes available

to take part in, including Zumba and Balance Fit. In the on-site tidal pool, aqua-fit instructor Jayleen will teach individuals a gentle, yet invigorating, exercise regime – the perfect physical activity for those who may have mobility limitations. Of course, at any age, we all want to feel productive, which is the third wellness focus at the Royale Peninsula. With positions available for all talents, skills and interests – including various resident committees, newsletter contribution and preparation, recreation leaders and more – residents can truly know that they are contributing to the greater good. The final component of holistic wellness is intellectual health – recognizing that learning is a lifelong journey, the Royale Peninsula offers a wide variety of activities designed to challenge or excite the minds of residents. Their recreation program includes excursions to heritage sites, museums and other inspiring locations. For residents who prefer to stay in the comfort of their new home, online education is available in their business centre and educational classes and seminars are offered in the theatre auditorium.

The Healing Power of Cold Laser Therapy Cold Laser Therapy (often also called Low Intensity Laser Therapy or Low Level Laser Therapy) is an innovative treatment for a variety of acute and chronic – often painful – conditions. Laser light transfers energy to interior cells • Stimulates natural healing • Restores normal cellular structure and function • Prevents future injury What you will experience: • Pain goes away • Reduced inflammation/swelling • Restored mobility Why Cold Laser? • Healing, not just masking of pain • Safe, drug free & no side effects • Avoid or delay the need for surgery • Accelerate and strengthen the body’s natural healing mechanisms The Concept Behind Cold Laser Therapy The healing power of light The concept of Cold Laser Therapy is actually quite simple. As humans, light plays a very important role in our existence. Similar to how plant cells require light for photosynthesis, our cells need light to power many of the normal processes that keep us healthy and happy. As long as we are exposed to enough regular sunlight, our skin absorbs the light we need and our cells can use it for many of their normal functions. If our cells are working normally, then our bodies are able to withstand different stresses from day to day activities and heal various ailments. Light therapy is not a new concept. It has been and continues to be used by doctors to treat a wide variety of conditions. For example, light has shown to be effective for treating many skin conditions including psoriasis and acne, depression and even tuberculosis before there were medications. Most people who suffer from arthritis can attest to the fact that their pain usually reduces or even completely subsides during the summer months or on a vacation to a sunny destination. Vitamin D, critical for keeping our bones healthy and strong, is created in our bodies by a process that requires sunlight. In places where there isn’t much sunlight available year round, people are usually encouraged to take vitamin D supplements during the darker months to help support their bones and prevent against bone-softening conditions such as rickets (in children) or osteoporosis. When we experience pain or inflammation from a problem or injury in an area of our body, the normal cellular processes slow down and our body has trouble healing as a result. Blood flow to these areas also gets interrupted, which restricts the ability of important nutrients to be delivered to the cells that need to heal. The science Scientific research conducted over the last few decades has shown that human cells heal better and faster when the right wavelengths of light energy get delivered to them. Cold Laser Therapy is a breakthrough solution for musculoskeletal pain because it shines a concentrated amount of only helpful wavelengths of light vital for healing (which are in the red and infrared parts of the spectrum) directly on targeted areas. This allows our bones, ligaments, and tissues deep inside our bodies to be exposed to the healthy light that otherwise cannot reach these areas. By delivering just the helpful parts of the light spectrum, the overall laser light power can be kept at very low and therefore very safe levels, which will not burn or otherwise harm the skin or any other tissues. How Does Cold Laser Therapy Work? Cold Laser Therapy delivers light based energy to cells, helping to accelSKIN (Epidermis) erate the body’s natural healing process at the cellular level. It targets SKIN (Dermis) Red Array injured cells, resulting in elimination and prevention of pain, reduction of FAT inflammation and swelling, and improved range of motion. Laser therapy Infrared Array does not just mask the pain, it actively stimulates healing to resolve musculoskeletal conditions for the long term. MUSCLE The Bioflex Cold Laser Therapy system is a three step process, each using Infrared a different wavelength of light which has been found to optimally stimuLaser late your body’s cells. The first step uses a red light pad at 660 nm, which gets absorbed by the cells of the skin and underlying superficial layers of BONE muscle. The second step uses an infrared light pad at 830 nm, reaching deeper into the muscle layers, as well as the tendons and ligaments. The third step includes an infrared laser wand at 840 nm that is placed specifically on the affected areas by a trained laser therapist. This light is very concentrated and targets the deepest affected structures, stimulating healing inside affected joints and even bone.

Cold Laser Therapy: Game Changer for Arthritis? Being in my late 50s, I’ve seen my fair share of “can’t miss” investment tips, over-hyped technologies and way too many promises of miracle cures for this or that ailment. So call me a skeptic. However every once in a while science and engineering produce a technology that is truly remarkable with a profound impact on some part of our life. Some of the technologies that our kids and grand-kids take for granted were not around when I grew up. Computers really changed things. And so did the Internet. There have been quite a few breakthroughs in health care. But most of the better known involve drugs or surgery. However as I found out a little while ago, there’s a remarkable new treatment option available for a variety of conditions that involves neither drugs nor surgery. Niels’ Story Early this year my wife Maria and I were having dinner with my friend and business partner Louba and her daughter Melanie, a bright young chiropractor who had been practising for a few years since obtaining her doctorate in chiropractic. At one point in the conversation she mentioned that there was a new technology based treatment called “Cold Laser Therapy”, which seemed Niels’ Mom to have rather dramatic results for a variety of conditions. She mentioned that it was really good for accelerating the healing process for muscle tears, tendonitis and also for post surgical healing. I had remembered listening to a sports talk show some years earlier where the host had mentioned truly stunning acceleration of healing and getting back to normal when laser therapy was used after hip surgery. That all sounded very interesting as a mental note, if I ever needed such a procedure. But when she mentioned Cold Laser Therapy had seen remarkable success in the treatment of arthritis, I asked “really?” I was rather skeptical, because my mom has been suffering from osteoarthritis in an increasingly bad way for many years. People familiar with the condition know all too well, there’s no known cure for the condition, just some ways of fighting the symptoms. Some of the medication my mom had tried provided decent temporary relief, but over the years she had to get off the best of those medications because of their strong side effects and later because they interacted dangerously with her heart medication. So she found herself between a rock and a hard place. Quitting the heart medication would probably kill her so she had to live with increasingly bad arthritis pain. To use just a simple example, her hands would hurt so much that she took to changing the bedsheets over 3 days. One day to change the pillowcases, another day to change the sheets and a 3rd day to change the duvet cover. Doctor Mel (that’s what everyone calls her) continued, “yes, this therapy has a remarkable success rate”. Being a health care provider she knows that nothing in health care is ever 100%, but anything that can really help 4 out of every 5 people is truly remarkable. So the next day I called my mom in Ontario on Skype (another fabulous invention) and told her about “Cold Laser Therapy” and asked her to find a clinic in her neighborhood, who provided such treatment. Over the years my mom had tried many different treatments for her arthritis, most didn’t work, or the side effects were too negative. She was naturally a little hesitant. But when I asked her to do this as a favour to me, I think her motherly instincts took over. After about 6 treatments over 3 weeks, she was very excited. “Look! I’ve got my hands back!” waving her hands to the computer camera, so I could see them. She showed me how much the range of motion in her hands had improved, how the swelling in the joints of her hand had gone down. Why am I telling this story? Because I can’t believe that Cold Laser Therapy isn’t better known and I think it really should be. And for some people its benefits can amount to a life changing event enabling them to return to improved mobility and eliminated or reduced pain. That dinner resulted in a partnership and a clinic providing Cold Laser Therapy, encouraged by my mom’s and others’ experiences plus other research. Sure, we’d love to be your cold laser therapy clinic of choice. But that’s not the most important point of my story. What’s most important is that this remarkable treatment exists and is truly worth learning about.

Head for heat this winter While we have enjoyed, for the most part, a beautiful fall here on the Semiahmoo Peninsula, in just a few short weeks, winter will be upon us. If you’re like many retirees in our community, the colder temperatures tend to awaken the urge to head somewhere warm and sunny for a few weeks, or even a few months. There are plenty of options when it comes to sun-filled destinations, from the ever-popular islands of Hawaii, to more uncommon areas of southern Europe, according to Cruise Holidays’ owner Nicky Armstrong. While the mainstays for many seniors continue to be North American hot spots like Arizona, California and Florida, Armstrong noted that there are a number of great deals to be found in the south of Portugal and Spain this time of year. One trip in particular to Algarve, Portugal includes 26 nights in a fullyequipped apartment, plus three nights hotel in Lisbon, airfare, economy car rental and all transfers for around $2,600 per person, including taxes. If you prefer to spend your holiday aboard a luxurious cruise ship, Caribbean and Panama cruises are a popular choice for this time of year, generally lasting about 20 days. Another popular multi-week cruise, according to Armstrong, is a repositioning voyage from the South Pacific that takes place in late winter or early spring. Travellers fly down to Australia or New Zealand and cruise back up to North America over a 20-day period. “When you’re flying that far, you’re

If you’re not a fan of cold winter weather, a tropical cruise might be in order this year. not going to do just a seven-day cruise,” Armstrong pointed out. “You’ll want something a little more substantial.” Group packages are a popular choice for the older generation of travel, which allow for a nice balance of guided excursions and independent exploration, with the safety and security of travelling with others. If you like planning ahead, Armstrong said one of her agents will be flying with a group to London next fall, them embarking on a 14-day cruise down the Mediterranean. When it comes to booking a holiday – whether it’s a quick tropical getaway or an extended stay in Europe – Armstrong always recommends travellers buy both cancellation and medical insurance. For retirees, she reminds them to pack more than enough medication to get through their trip, plus an extra pair of glasses just in case, and to always ensure your travel company has emergency contact info.

Stay vibrant, healthy & wise.

Take caution with donations Many seniors fall victim to scams this time of year Charities often target certain groups of people when soliciting donations, and with the holiday season approaching, there is sure to be an increase in organizations appealing for help. Unfortunately, this time of year there is often an increase in criminals posing as legitimate organizations who tend to target specific groups of people as well. Anyone can be fooled by a fraudulent charity, but such criminals tend to target seniors more than others. Seniors often make attractive targets to con artists because they are most likely to have substantial savings, own their homes and/or have excellent credit. These factors make seniors especially attractive and vulnerable to con artists, particularly those who prey on wellintentioned men and women by posing as fake charities. But there are steps seniors can take to protect themselves from fraud. • Be skeptical of solicitors. Many con artists will indicate that persons have given to the charity in the past, hoping that prospective victims simply won’t remember if that claim is valid or not. If a solicitor or appeal letter claims that you donated in the past, don’t simply take it at face value, especially if you don’t recall making such a donation. Get specific information about alleged past donations, checking that information against your own bank records and receipts. • Don’t feel obligated to reciprocate a gift with a donation. Many charities send gifts, be it mailing labels or holiday cards, to prospective donors as a token

Con artists are fully aware of this tactic and may try to imitate it in an attempt to defraud potential victims. • Beware of solicitors pressuring you to donate. Reputable charities should not be on the verge of shut down if you fail to make a donation, so such organizations never pressure prospective donors into making donations. If a solicitor is pressuring you into making a donation over the phone or in person, chances are strong that this person is not representing a reputable charity. authorities. • Send donations directly to the charity after independently confirming their address. When making charitable donations, those donations should never be given directly to solicitors. Donations should only be made after you have independently confirmed the charity’s address and mailed straight to the organization.

Dear Residents: What is the best way to introduce my grandmother to a residence? She is very social but I think a tour at a first visit would be overwhelming to her and turn her off of the whole idea. – Sarah H. Dear Sarah: There is a lot of information imparted during a tour that is difficult to retain – it is very understanding of you to consider a different approach for your grandmother. For many people, it is not the layout of the building, but rather the impression they have of the residence atmosphere or culture that helps them to make a decision. Other

family members can take on the role of exploring the amenity spaces in advance and share that information with your grandmother, but for her introduction you may want to ask the marketing director to coordinate a visit with a few welcoming residents over tea. Ask that this be planned during a quieter time in the residence so she is not overwhelmed with the activity during a larger event. We suggest you limit this to just the social visit, and make a follow up appointment to view the suites and building with your grandma on another day. – the Residents

Little Women

Following up on successful shows in November 2012 and May of this year, the show will feature many new and different paintings. Participating artists are Adrienne Moore AFCA, Carolynn Doan, Eileen Fong, Gary McDonald, Gwen Murphy, Jess Rice, Lee Caulfield, Lora Armbruster, Mac Grieve, Nicole Carrie, Sheila Symington and guest artist Marilyn Hurst. All artists will be in attendance during the show and admission is free. For more information, visit www. abreathoffreshart.com

Tickets are available now for the Surrey Youth Theatre Company (SYTCO) production of Little Women, Saturday Nov. 23 (7 p.m.) and Sunday, Nov. 24 (2 p.m.) at Earl Marriott Secondary’s Wheelhouse Theatre, 15751 16 Ave. Acted by a cast of 13- to 17 year-old student players, the heartwarming play was adapted from the classic semi-autobiographical Louisa May Alcott novel – chronicling enduring family values in New England through the heartache and hardships of the American Civil War period – by Marisha Chamberlain, and is directed by SYTCO founder and artistic director Susan Pendleton. It’s the story of the four March sisters, ambitious Meg (Jodi-Ann Wang), tomboyish Jo (Cassandra Strain), retiring Beth (Kana Saarni) and headstrong Amy (double-cast between Sofie Levy and Julia Kelleway); their devoted mother and moral guide Marmee (Marina Cyr) and boy next door Theodore ‘Laurie’ Laurence (Dennis Sorescu). Also featured are Tia Berezan as housekeeper Hannah, Shandel Riedlinger as critical and persnickety Aunt March, Frankie Xie as John Brooke, Zachary Wood as Mr. March and a special appearance by Norm Pettersson as Mr. Laurence. Tickets ($12) are available from 604-805-3855 or by emailing sytco@shaw.ca

Hounds spoof The first full-scale theatrical production at the Newton Cultural Centre (13530 72 Ave.) – The Hound of the Baskervilles, directed by Ellie King for the newly formed professional company Bad Dog Productions – closes this Thursday (Oct. 31). It’s a spoof retelling of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s most chilling, Halloween-appropriate adventure, picking up on the genre established by the stage hit version of The Thirty-Nine Steps. The Clive Francis adaptation employs a small cast (three men in this instance) to play all of the characters, male and female, with often hilarious results – but in spite of the lightning-fast changes of character, scenery and costume, it’s also a surprisingly faithful version of Conan Doyle’s plot. The Bad Dog version stars Michael Charrois, Mark Carter and James Rowley, all of whom worked with King – recently named

Well-known locally from her 10 years with the Semiahmoo Strings Youth Orchestra, Kierah has completed her classical violin studies with the Royal Conservatory of Music and is now concentrating on writing her own original tunes.

Aries, shake things up a bit to inpsire some much-needed change. Be a tourist in your own city if you cannot afford a trip or immerse yourself in new cultures.

Libra, you feel a strong need to communicate with others this week. Share some truths with your loved ones, but try not to come across as if you have an agenda.

TAURUS It is not a good week to begin new projects, Taurus. In fact, cosmic signs point to finishing up anything you have outstanding. Try to focus on financial matters as well.

hoever is in charge of hanging athletic banners at Semiahmoo Secondary is going to have to make some more room on the walls of the gym. The space is needed after the Semiahmoo Totems’ crosscountry teams returned home from Fraser Valley championships at Abbotsford’s Clearbrook Park Wednesday with three team titles – from the Grade 8 boys, Grade 8 girls and junior girls teams. “It’s by far the best we’ve ever done as a school,” said Semiahmoo crosscountry coach Scott Yewchuk. “It’s not uncommon for us to do well and come home with a banner, we’ve never won this many – we’ve never had a boys’ team win at Fraser Valleys. “Every single kid ran well – just right across the board. It was just a wonderful day.” The three banners come just a few weeks after the school nabbed four Surrey cross-country banners. Team titles are tabulated by calculating the placings of each school’s top four runners, with the lowest total score winning. Both Grade 8 titles were won by a single point – the Totem boys over Maple Ridge, the girls over Sullivan Heights – and adding to the drama, both victories were not official until the following day, after individual results were recounted and confirmed. “We were actually at school Wednesday when we heard we’d won,” said Yewchuk. “It was as tight as it could get, in both races.” In the four-km junior girls race, Clayton Heights runner Christina Sevsek placed first, crossing the finish line in 15 minutes, 15.17 seconds. Earl Marriott’s Georgia Ginther was fourth, and Semiahmoo runners Jessica Williams, Dominika Paige and Julia Greer were sixth, seventh and ninth, respectively. Danielle Steer from Elgin Park was 11th, just ahead of Semi’s Emily Liang. In the five-km junior boys

event, the Totems were third, led by Connor Jackson and Dawson Ribiero, who were fourth and fifth, respectively. Other south-end runners who fared well included Elgin Park’s Ben Watkins, in ninth, and Marriott’s Jackson Silvester-Lee in 11th. In the three-km Grade 8 girls event, Semi’s Haley Ribiero finished second – just four seconds back of Abbotsford’s Sienna Lenz – while Sullivan Heights’ Emma Kramer and Alyssa Terry were fourth and fifth, respectively. Semiahmoo’s Alexa Porpaczy was ninth, and three other Totems – Alina Tork, Priya Gillan and Chelsea Zhou – were inside the top-20. In the Grade 8 boys race, Earl Marriott’s Jaxon Mackie was second, in a time of 10:08.46, while EMS teammate Sajjan Sarai was ninth. Semi’s Annie Ouyang and Nick Whiteley also placed in the top 20 runners out of 56 total. In the senior girls’ four-km run, Panorama Ridge was eighth overall, while Semiahmoo was 10th. Semi’s Chelsea Ribeiro was the top individual runner among Surrey athletes, placing fourth, while Earl Marriott’s Fiona Brown was 14th and Panorama’s Chelsea Harkins was 20th. In the five-km senior boys race, Earl Marriott’s Sterling Ginther was the top Surrey finisher, in fifth, while Semi’s Brandon Figueroa was sixth and Lord Tweedsmuir’s Liam McKay ninth. Other runners to place in the top 20 included White Rock Christian Academy’s Jordan Gin and Panorama’s Philip Truong. Teams are now preparing for provincial cross-country championships, set for Saturday at Aldergrove Lake Park. Coming off a successful Fraser Valley championship, Yewchuk hoped his team would be able to contend for another banner or two. “We’ll just get out there, run as hard as we can. and see what happens,” he said.

Third periods plague Surrey in back-to-back games

‘Inconsistent’ Eagles lose two Nick Greenizan Sports Reporter

Inconsistency continues to plague the Surrey Eagles, who were saddled with two more losses on the weekend. On Friday, the Eagles lost 3-2 on the road to their BC Hockey League rival Chilliwack Chiefs, and Saturday at South Surrey Arena, fell 5-3 to the visiting West Kelowna Warriors. In both contests, the Eagles were either tied or ahead in the third period, before coughing up points to the opposition. “We’re just a little inconsistent right now – turning over the puck too much,” said Eagles head coach Peter Schaefer. “And when you’re constantly turning it over – not just in the defensive zone but on offence, too – it’s tough to get much going.” Against Chilliwack Friday, the game was knotted 2-2 after 40 minutes, until Chiefs’ leading scorer Austin Plevy scored a shorthanded goal 9:52 into the third period to give the home team the lead. Joseph Drapluk and captain Brett Mulcahy scored for the Eagles, while goaltender Bo Didur was tagged with the loss in net. The following night, against the Warriors, Surrey held a 3-2 lead heading into the final frame – on goals from Kale Bennett, Austin Ferguson and Mulcahy – but West Kelowna tied the game on a pair of power-play goals,

Devon Fordyce reaches to stop a shot from West Kelowna’s Tyson Dallman Saturday. and then Tyson Dallman, who scored the tying goal, fired home the winner with less than two minutes to go. “We just have to get back to doing the simple things right. Because when you do the small things, right, they turn into big things, and that’s when you start to get some wins,” Schaefer said.

“Right now we’re not getting the bounces, but we don’t deserve to get them right now.” Devon Fordyce took the loss in net for the Eagles. The Eagles have a 7-10-1 record as they head into November, and site fourth in the BCHL’s Mainland Division. By not picking i see page 35

Indoor cycling (spin) classes provide a total body workout that includes bursts of speed and interval drills that help you improve cardiovascular endurance. Tailor your workout by adjusting your bike to create the right intensity for you! Because you can go at your own pace, indoor cycling is a low-impact exercise that can be enjoyed by any age group.

Last week, the Eagles dealt former starting goaltender Victor Adamo to the St. Michael’s Buzzers of the Ontario Junior Hockey League for future considerations. Adamo, 20, became expendable when the team picked up 19-yearold Fordyce from the Brooks Bandits earlier this month. While Adamo had been mostly solid in net for Surrey, Schaefer said the move was made to increase roster flexibility, as dealing Adamo frees up one of six 20-year-old spots on the

roster. “He’d been good for us, but he had let in a couple weak ones lately, and 20-year-old spots, you only get six, so you need those guys to be impact players,” Schaefer said. “And Fordyce is only 19, so he can come back here next season, too.” With five other 20-year-olds still on the roster, the trade allows the Eagles to move defenceman Danny Vlanich – who turns 20 Nov. 25 – from the reserve roster to the regular roster.

OBITUARIES

ELCOMBE, Alan (Al) Roy 1934 - 2013 It is with heavy hearts the family announces the passing of Al, our dear husband, father, grandfather and friend on October 24, 2013. He will be sadly missed by Shirley, his loving wife of 57 years, sons Kelly (Susan), Kirby (Emily) and grandchildren Cayley, Adam and Madison. Al was born and grew up in the Fort Rouge area of Winnipeg. After enjoying a successful career in the real estate and insurance business and being an active member of the Winnipeg Real Estate Board, he retired to White Rock, B.C. in 1987, where he enjoyed the camaraderie of his friends at the White Rock Tennis Club. For the past 20 + years he spent the winters in Arizona enjoying an active lifestyle. The last couple of years were a struggle with many health problems but the brave warrior that he was, carried on with no complaints. With respect to his request, there will be no service but a celebration of life will be held at a later date. Many thanks to Dr. Benitez and staff at the Peace Arch Hospital for all their care and compassion. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Peace Arch Hospital or Canadian Cancer Society.

Legeer, her son, Richard Legeer (Josie), her loving daughter, Karen Legeer, her grandsons, Beau and Sean Legeer and four great-granddaughters.
