Health minister says health authority’s repeatedly going over budget ‘doesn’t add up for us’

Province orders probe of Fraser Health Jeff Nagel Black Press

Health Minister Terry Lake has ordered a strategic and operational review of Fraser Health to help contain rising costs and deal with persistent hospital congestion. The health region is B.C.’s largest – it consumes $3 billion a year on behalf of 1.6 million residents – but it’s running over budget once again this year and Lake said it will

require another infusion of extra money to meet patient demand. The Fraser region population, which includes those served by both Peace Arch Hospital and Surrey Memorial Hospital, has grown by 1.3 per cent a year over the past three years and the authority has received budget increases averaging six per cent a year – more than the 4.8-per-cent average for other health regions.

Despite that, Fraser went one per cent over budget last year – the third year in a row it’s failed to stay within its allocation. “That doesn’t add up for us,” Lake said. “Fraser has not been able to manage the budget targets and we want to understand why.” He said continued budget hikes of five to seven per cent can’t continue either. “We’ve been very clear that we need to

bend the cost curve down on increases in health because it’s simply not sustainable,” the minister said. It’s too soon to say how far Fraser will overshoot this year’s budget but another one per cent overrun would take an extra $30 million – money Lake said will be found from the core operations of the health ministry, not raided from other health regions. i see page 4

Woman found dead in east Surrey park

Lisa Ann Zielke victim

Police are warning sex-trade workers to take extra precautions after the body of a woman known to be living the high-risk lifestyle was found dumped in a park near the Surrey-Langley border Thursday. Officials with the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team on Monday identified 41-year-old Lisa Ann Zielke as the victim. The Surrey resident was drugdependent and actively working as a sex-trade worker, police say.

She was last seen alive at about 6:15 p.m. Oct. 30, when she was spotted getting into a vehicle near 91 Avenue and King George Boulevard. Her body was found in the parking lot of Hi-Knoll Park – in the 19500-block of Colebrook Road – about 17 hours later. Foul play is suspected. The cause of death has not been released. Police believe furniture – including a brown sofa-bed and a wooden table and chairs – that was found near the scene

may help them identify a person of interest in the investigation. “Investigators believe that the timeline of when Lisa Ann was in the park is very close to the timeline that the furniture would have been dumped,” Sgt. Jennifer Pound said Monday. “The individual(s) who dumped the furniture may have information about her death and police are looking to identify and speak with them.” i see page 2

Surrey RCMP are hunting for a man after a 15-year-old said she was grabbed on her way home from school last week. The student said she had been followed for some time We d n e s d a y before the man grabbed her arm near 136 Street and 60 Avenue at Suspect about 4:15 p.m. police sketch She broke free and ran to a family member’s home and was not injured during the brief struggle. Police canvassed the area looking for witnesses and, in consulting other specialized RCMP sections, said they found “no links to other similar reported cases.” The suspect is described as Caucasian, approximately 5’11” to 6’0”, medium build, late 30s to mid 40s, with a long, broad red nose, short light-brown hair and salt-and-pepper stubble. He was believed to be wearing baggy clothing, including blue jeans that were stained or dusty near the bottom, and a longsleeve sweater or jacket. “While we believe this to be an isolated incident, we need to warn the public and ask for their assistance in reporting suspicious persons or activities,” said Cpl. Bert Paquet.

Man Tasered by officers near school

Child held at knifepoint Kevin Diakiw Black Press

A 37-year-old man was Tasered after a child was grabbed at knifepoint at a school in Newton last week. Officers – called to a disturbance near École Regionale Gabrielle-Roy, in the 6800-block of 132 Street Thursday at 12:45 p.m. – found a man holding a nine-year-old boy with one hand and brandishing a knife in the other. After a brief negotiation, police said, they

deployed a Taser and convinced the man to release the child and drop the knife. The suspect – who police say is known to them for mental-health issues – and the Grade 4 student from Gabrielle-Roy are reported to be physically unharmed. Surrey RCMP Cpl. Bert Paquet said that because of the level of force used in apprehending the suspect, the Independent Investigations Office will be called to probe police actions in this case.

Injuries conceded but court told accused acted in self-defence

Defence lawyer disputes level of assault Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

The lawyer for a man accused of brutally beating a White Rock businessman four years ago said his client is not disputing that Fred Edrissi suffered serious injuries in an altercation with Darryl Brown. The manner in which Edrissi was injured, however “is in great dispute,” Jeremy Fung told Justice R. Crawford Friday, during closing arguments in B.C. Supreme Court in New Westminster. Fung is defending Brown on charges of aggravated assault and assault with a weapon. While he agreed a finding of guilt is appropriate on the lesser charge of assault, Fung said the Crown has failed to prove beyond a reasonable doubt the more serious allegation of aggravated assault. “The manner of physical interaction is up in the air with doubt,” Fung said.

Brown, 47, was charged following an incident Aug. 1, 2009 in South Surrey, on property in the 16500-block of 32 Avenue. When the trial got underway in September 2012, Edrissi testified that Brown struck him multiple times in the head with a hammer or pipe wrench, and tried to strangle him, when he went to the property to have mechanical work done on his minivan. According to Edrissi, Brown attacked him from behind while he was trying to fix a grinder that Brown had been struggling with. Last month, Brown told the court that it was Edrissi who struck first, hitting him in the arm with a grinder and then in the head with a pipe wrench. Brown testified he remembers nothing after that, beyond seeing stars and wrestling with Edrissi on the ground. Arguing his client acted in self-defence, Fung said Brown’s version of events “simply

makes more sense” than that offered by Edrissi. Brown told the court that he had agreed to do work on Edrissi’s van for $50 plus the cost of parts. He said that just prior to the altercation, Edrissi was “ranting” about having already paid for the work, and said Edrissi didn’t understand that only the parts had been paid for, not the Fred Edrissi labour. injured Fung submitted Edrissi had exaggerated parts of his story to make Brown’s actions prior to the altercation – for example, asking Edrissi to move his minivan behind a trailer – appear more suspicious. Prosecutor Jas Gahunia argued there is

“no air of reality” to Brown’s claim of selfdefence, and said physical evidence from the scene – including Edrissi’s blood on the handle and groove end of a pipe wrench – “corroborates in significant ways” with Edrissi’s version of events. The incident meets the criteria set out for determining aggravated assault, she added, citing evidence the force used by Brown was intentional as one example. Fung disagreed. “The altercation began at the hands of Mr. Edrissi. What happens next is unclear and it cannot be enough to support a conviction of aggravated assault,” he said. “(Brown) has no memory and can’t explain what happened after they went to the ground. Self defence still succeeds on that.” Crawford reserved decision on the matter. A judgment date is to be scheduled on Thursday.

MP’s bill returns

Hiebert touts poll support Alex Browne Staff Reporter

Conservative MP Russ Hiebert said a new poll shows there is consistent support for his Bill C-377, which calls for new levels of financial disclosure by labour organizations. The SouthSu r r e y - W h i t e R o c k - C l o v e rdale MP said the poll of 1,400 working Canadians – conMP Russ Hiebert ducted in July calls for disclosure and August for what he termed the “non-partisan” Canadian LabourWatch Association – shows “a broad public consensus” on the need for “financial transparency” by labour unions. In a news release last week, Hiebert said the poll confirms “83 per cent of working Canadians, 84 per cent of unionized Canadians, and fully 89 per cent of formerly unionized Canadians agree with mandatory financial disclosure.” According to its website, LabourWatch is “financially supported by national and provincial industry associations and law firms.” Amongst the information it provides is advice on how to cancel union cards and decertify unions. Critics of C-377, including the Canadian Labour Congress, note unions are already required to disclose financial information to their members and allege Hiebert’s bill is designed to hamstring unions. The bill, previously extensively modified by the Senate, is back before it in original form, on first reading, as a result of the prorogation of parliament by Prime Minister Stephen Harper.

Zombie police encourage motorists to ‘drop the cellphone’

On the prowl for distracted brains Tracy Holmes Black Press

Police walking the streets of South Surrey last week were dead-set on helping make them safer. Dressed as zombies holding ‘Happy Halloween’ signs – and armed with sharp eyes and radios connecting them to uniformed police officers waiting just down the road – the undercover Mounties tipped their peers to motorists breaking the province’s traffic laws last Tuesday, two days before Halloween. By the end of the operation – conducted at 152 Street and 32 Avenue – 45 violation tickets had been issued, including 28 for distracted

driving. “I’d like to say numbers were a lot less (than usual),” Cpl. Robert McDonald of ‘E’ Division RCMP Traffic Services said Wednesday. In addition to distracted drivers, police were

on the lookout for people who weren’t wearing seatbelts, those driving dangerously and motorists disobeying traffic signals. McDonald said it was hoped the Halloweenthemed enforcement would remind drivers to be extra cautious on the roads Halloween night, when a higher-than-usual number of children were out and about. “Now is the time to pay attention to your driving,” he said last week. “We want people to drop the cellphone… for Halloween night, if nothing else.” The initiative was a joint effort between Lower Mainland District Traffic Services and Surrey RCMP Traffic Services.

Health-care conundrum

raser Health – which has routinely met concerns about the impact of overcrowding and understaffing at its hospitals with a “nothing-to-see-here” approach – may have to find different answers for a provincial government ‘strategic and operational’ review of its operations. Health Minister Terry Lake is concerned that the region, which oversees both Peace Arch Hospital and Surrey Memorial, has gone over-budget for the third year running – even though it has received annual budget increases averaging at six per cent, higher than the 4.8 average percentage for other health regions. This year’s projected one-per-cent overrun amounts to some $30 million that will have to be found somewhere. The news comes on the heels of several embarrassing reports for Fraser Health, among them the return of hallway patients to Surrey Memorial’s ER, only weeks after the opening of a widely heralded state-of-the-art emergency department five times the size of the old one. The recent case at Delta Hospital of a blind senior who was sent home alone by taxi – after midnight and in her nightclothes – was an instance of a patient falling through the cracks that was not easily explained away by the region. Lake now says he wants to understand why Fraser Health has not been able to manage its budget targets, noting five- to seven-percent annual budget increases are “simply not sustainable.” It’s the kind of language that – in other working environments – would suggest accusing fingers are about to be pointed. But the real answers – and we must assume that is what Lake is seeking – may not be to his or the provincial government’s liking. The blame for the current situation can’t be laid entirely at Fraser Health’s door, even given its representatives’ apparent readiness to contain disquieting criticism. Nor can putting Fraser Health’s strategic and operational policies under a microscope entirely explain increased costs of dealing with the health-care needs of a fast-growing population. Even Lake himself says that hospital congestion is nothing new – suggesting the problem may be one that is much broader and harder to solve than by simply cracking down on a single health region.

So far this week you’ve said…

their immunization reduces influenza transmission to patients. “I have also concluded that there is a real and serious patient-safety issue and the policy is a helpful program to reduce patient risk.” The B.C. Centre for Disease Control calculates that if all health-care workers would get immunized, the risk to patients would be reduced nearly 50 per cent. The Ministry of Health warns: “you can spread influenza for 24 hours before you have any symptoms.” What would cause educated health-care workers to defy common sense? A hint is provided by professional union promoter and publicist Bill Tieleman, who railed about the decision on his blog. This regulation is inspired by big, bad U.S. health-care corporations that would rather impose immunization than pay for sick days, Tieleman asserts. Ah, so an infected health-care employee should wander the wards until symptoms emerge, and then go home for a few days of paid rest. What a perfectly stupid idea! Last week BCNU president Debra McPherson was warning about “chaos” at the new Surrey Memorial emergency ward, her latest of a career of media protests. The big, new facility is already overflowing, and more beds and more staff are needed, stat! Perhaps if better preventive measures were taken by nurses, doctors and other staff, this chronic “chaos” would be reduced and these unions would have more credibility.

Monitoring the meters

Special force of blue plates

An open letter to BC Hydro. Now that you have installed my smart meter, please tell me how to read it to determine my usage. In the past, I could go out and read the dials to indicate my usage since the last time I had read it. Now, it just flashes a number which gives no indication if it is watts/kilowatts. Don’t tell me the information on how to read it is not ready for release yet. You forced us into installing the smart meter. If you don’t have the ability to share the info, why did you force the smart meter on us? A call to customer service indicates that, sometime in the future, BC Hydro will make the information available, once they decide what kind of devices we may need to purchase. I do not want to purchase another device to tell me what my usage is. I do not want to subscribe to BC Hydro’s website. What do people without a computer do? How and when will your secret information be released? Will the cost of upgrading to the smart meter mean we can expect higher cost for electricity to cover the expenses that BC Hydro incurs for the upgrades to your equipment to read the meters? Mike Baynes, Surrey

Editor: During my daily outings in and around White Rock I’ve often seen several blue veteran licence plates, but last month I was quite surprised not to see a significant number of these licence plates at Morgan Creek Golf Club where Equitas held a fundraiser dinner Oct. 18. However in retrospect, I put it down to my neighbours not knowing that Equitas is a national, non-partisan organization formed to support injured Canadian soldiers suffering life-long disabilities (Court, ombudsman back veterans group’s claim, Oct. 10). Now, it’s to be hoped that more awareness will provoke our local veterans, along with all fellow

Canadians to take the time to learn more about Equitas by simply ‘Googling’ their website. So in that case, there should be a sea of blue licence plates in the parking area at the next Equitas Society White Rock fundraiser. Elizabeth Kearns, White Rock

Ensuring you have insurance Editor: This letter will hopefully be a warning to anyone who has an obsolete underground oil tank on their property. I had one, but it is now gone. I was preparing to switch my home insurance to BCAA, but found they would not insure me as long as an oil tank was on my property.

Many thanks to Matthew at TriCity Tank Tech, who came down for a site visit. He explained the procedures and we agreed to a date. Everything was scheduled in twohour increments: The digging, tank truck to clean out inside of the tank, pulling tank out, cutting into pieces and taking away, a visit by the environment people, etc. Once it was OK to fill in, the dirt that was taken out was replaced, four tons of washed sand was “blown” in, then approximately six yards of screened topsoil spread over, and grass seed was planted. In one complete day, it was all done. A warning to anyone who still has a tank underground, check your insurance policy or check with your agent. You may find that in a catastrophe, your insurance is null and void. David L. Henderson, White Rock

quote of note

Some parents continue to believe their children would never… be the perpetrators of aggressive Internet acts – yet the frequency of stories would indicate otherwise.a Jennifer Chandler

Classes of health care Editor: I recently visited a friend who was admitted to Peace Arch Hospital. Again I was appalled to find all the beds in emergency, including all the corridors, were full. My friend was offered a “private room” for $165 a night. It seems there are four such rooms at PAH. Each room could accommodate four regular patients, which means that keeping these special rooms available for wealthier patients keeps 16 patients in the corridors instead of in proper beds. Since these extra fees could hardly make much impact on PAH’s multimillion-dollar budget, there must be a secret agenda at work here. Has Fraser Health been told by the B.C. government to keep a quota of private rooms at each of the hospitals for their first-class friends? Apparently, these rooms are also used by third-class individuals brought in by police and prison service. Meanwhile, the second-class – the 99 per cent – are expected to provide donations to improve the PAH. All along, Fraser Health boasts of its “transparency,” but I will bet that only the government-appointed directors ever see the operating budgets for our hospitals. It would be an eye-opening event for the public to see what the top 10 paper-pushers – no direct medical services to the public – at PAH are costing the taxpayers. It’s time our hospitals had publicly appointed directors who could keep the public informed. Herb Spencer, Surrey

Online safety should be a topic for both parents and youth to learn more about, says letter-writer Jennifer Chandler.

World is watching; are parents? Editor: I attended a presentation at Elgin Park Secondary last week that was to inform parents and community about Internet Safety. The presenter was Darren Laur, a staff sergeant with the Victoria City Police Department. He has started a business with his wife, Beth, that focuses on violence prevention, safety awareness and protection strategies. As a career and educational consultant who primarily works in private practice with women and youth, I was keenly interested in how to provide my clients with more information about protecting themselves online, along with learning the importance of creating a good “digital footprint.” It is no secret that what is placed on the Internet will follow a person for many years to come, and that can influence employers and educational institutions in their decision making. I do not have any children at that school, but it was my understanding that at least two grades’ worth of students attended an Internet-safety presentation earlier that day with Laur. I also believe there are more than 1,000 students who attend that school, yet it surprised me to see less than 30 adults in attendance that evening. In an age of cyberbullying, sexting, Internet predators,

identity theft, computer viruses and scams – each of which young people can find themselves as targets –you would think more parents would have made it a priority to attend this presentation. I have listened, read and participated in discussions about these issues, and what you find is adults either feeling powerless or uninformed. Some parents continue to believe their children would never find themselves exposed to the situations outlined above or be the perpetrators of aggressive Internet acts – yet the frequency of stories would indicate otherwise. There was a lot to take in, and even those who considered themselves technologically savvy were given some valuable tips; especially noted when it came to tracking within their own phones and online language. It wasn’t all doom and gloom, either. In fact, it was fascinating to learn how our children positively use the Internet. However, only a tiny fraction of parents came away better equipped to address inappropriate behaviour online or begin the conversation of both the negative and positive role it plays in their lives. I do hope that poor attendance is not the norm for such important presentations. Jennifer Chandler, Surrey

Think tank warns B.C. to adopt ‘realistic expectations’

Coleman pumped for LNG

¤ ¡ ¦¤န

Jeff Nagel Black Press

Deputy premier Rich Coleman says he’s not apologizing for talking up the liquefied natural gas windfall awaiting B.C. and dismissed a report that criticizes the B.C. government for being overly optimistic. “I don’t mind being accused of being an optimist,” he said in an interview Wednesday. “I was accused of that last year when everybody thought we were not going to ever win another election in B.C.” The minister responsible for natural gas development spoke to the Surrey Board of Trade as part of a panel on LNG. He was reacting to a critical report this week from the Calgary-based Canada West Foundation, which cautioned B.C. needs to adopt “realistic expectations” and understand the case for creating a major new LNG industry is solid but not guaranteed. Titled “Managing Expectations,” the report cautions other LNG projects in Australia are further advanced and others around the world pose a threat of competition that will push down potential revenues. “B.C. is coming late to the party,” it says. “Expectations of just a year ago may be tough to deliver.” The report also notes the propo-

Rich Coleman addresses an audience at the Surrey Board of Trade. nents in B.C. face potentially large costs relative to other areas to build new pipelines to the coastal LNG plants that would chill and liquefy shale gas for export by tankers to Asia. The think tank recommends the province move fast to outmaneuver competitors but also prepare for a “more modest natural gas boom” in case the industry doesn’t blossom as fast as Victoria hopes. “I get a kick out of that because at the same time they also say there’s a huge opportunity in British Columbia for liquefied natural gas,” Coleman said of Canada West’s findings. In his address to the business audience, he said B.C. has 150 years worth of natural gas reserves

to sell that promise to “change the face of the province” like no other opportunity since the years of premier W.A.C. Bennett. Coleman said five LNG plants would be equivalent to adding $1 trillion to the B.C. economy over 30 years, making the province debt-free within 15 years and creating a $100-billion prosperity fund for future programs. He also insisted B.C. has advantages for LNG, among them its shipping proximity to Asia and the cool temperatures of the north coast, which mean cheaper costs to supercool natural gas. Coleman said a partnership led by Shell on a potential Kitimat LNG plant will see $1 billion spent just in the process of making the final investment decision.

Jeffrey Goddard wanted for breaching conditions of probation

RCMP hunt for sex offender Vikki Hopes Black Press

A high-risk sex offender, who has been living in Surrey since being released from prison earlier this year on his last set of charges, is wanted by the RCMP for breaching the conditions of his probation. RCMP have issued an arrest warrant for Jeffrey Goddard, 23, saying in a news release that “his recent behaviour progression is indicative that he may be back in a crime cycle.” Police did not release further details but described Goddard as an “untreated sex offender.” He committed his crimes while living in Abbotsford and is believed to be somewhere in the Lower Mainland or Fraser Valley.

communicating via a computer to lure a child, impersonating a police officer and two charges of breaching his bail conditions. Goddard was released from prison in February 2012, and breached his conditions that summer when he again adopted an alias on Facebook – this time, posing as a landscaper – and hired two teen boys to do yard work. He was again sentenced to jail – 180 days – and completed that term in January of this year. Goddard’s conditions of his release include that he not communicate with people under the age of 18, not use social networking sites and not use any electronic device capable of accessing the Internet. Goddard is 5’9”, weighs 150 pounds and has brown hair and green eyes. Police are warning the public to not approach Goddard and to call 911 immediately if he is seen.

…on the Semiahmoo Peninsula

Black Bond Books marks 50 years of business

Celebrating their page-turning history Alex Browne

Staff Reporter

hen Madeleine Neill was negotiating for a loan to open her first White Rock Black Bond Books location on Russell Avenue in the late 1970s, it wasn’t considered a giltedged proposition – even though Neill had already demonstrated her entrepreneurial instincts going back over a decade. “A single woman going to the bank in those days – it was quite something,” recalled Neill’s daughter, Black Bond co-owner and manager Cathy Jesson. “The bank manager finally said to her, ‘Madeleine, I don’t know if I’m doing you a favour or a bad turn, but you’re getting the money.’” It turned out to be a good bet. While it’s not on Russell anymore, that first Peninsula store became the cornerstone of a business that has since grown into a chain of 11 outlets in Vancouver and the Lower Mainland – including the Semiahmoo Shopping Centre store and the South Surrey Warehouse headquarters – celebrating its 50th anniversary this year. Among upcoming celebration events for the chain, Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield will make a personal appearance Nov. 15 at 7 p.m. at Black Bond’s Central City store, promoting his new book An Astronaut’s Guide to Life on Earth. Even though Neill retired in 1997, Jesson confirms her mom still takes a close interest in what continues to be, proudly, a family business. “She’s just so proud – she’s the biggest cheerleader for us all,” she said, adding that among the anniversary congratulations that have poured is a hand-typewritten note from legendary Canadian author Farley Mowat. Representing the third generation of the family in the company, Neill’s granddaughter, Caitlin Jesson – already a decade in the business – is now manager of the landmark Book Warehouse location in Vancouver, acquired by Black Bond when founder Sharman King retired last year. The beginning of the chain goes back to the university town of Brandon, Man. in 1963, where Neill was recruited to run a book store, although she’d had no prior experience in the business. “She was a housewife,” Jesson said. “This group of business people in Brandon

Three generations of Black Bond women, (left to right) Caitlin Jesson, Cathy Jesson and Madeleine Neill, stand in front of a mural depicting the original Brandon, Man. store. decided the community needed a book store and looked to her to manage it for them. “She ended up buying them all out.” Named Black Bond after Jesson’s two great-grandmothers, Mrs. Black and Mrs. Bond, the store brought out Neill’s potential as a people person, Jesson said. So successful a businesswoman was she,

that in the late ’70s she was hired by a Vancouver chain, Julian Books, to manage their five Lower Mainland stores – leaving Jesson to manage the original Brandon store. After five years of working for others, the pull of running her own business again proved too strong, and – encouraged by her cousin, who saw an opportunity for a book

store on the Semiahmoo Peninsula – Neill moved to White Rock. Shortly afterwards, in 1977, Jesson closed down the Brandon operation, moved to the West Coast and opened Black Bond’s Langley store. Jesson’s sister, Vicky Plett, came on board to open a Black Bond store in New Westminster, while Jesson’s former husband, and current business partner, Mel was instrumental in growing the business to its current stature. Jesson said that, at the 50-year milestone, the traditional book store clearly faces challenges from online business. “Amazon is a huge threat to all things brick and mortar,” she said, noting that even David Labistour, ❝I think young CEO of Mountain people appreciate Equipment Co-op, books, collect them has talked about the impact online and want them – business has had on and that bodes well their operations. for the future.❞ “I think we’re all Cathy Jesson in good company.” Even so, there are plenty of indications that a significant segment of the market continues to enjoy the experience of visiting and browsing among the shelves of a traditional book store, and that a lash-back against virtual stores may be growing. “We’re finding that booksellers in the U.S. are undergoing huge resurgence, with lots of new openings,” Jesson said. “And we’ve noted how appreciative people are at the Book Warehouse that we able to keep that in operation.” Other technological developments are finding their own level in the marketplace, Jesson noted. “Everybody thought the world was going to end with the e-book, but that has plateaued,” she said, adding that while e-books may make sense for some readers and frequent travellers, many are still opting for the tactile experience of reading a ‘real’ book – and other books, particularly those in larger or more luxurious formats, simply don’t translate well to the medium. “The biggest growth area in publishing is in the teen and nine to 12 age groups,” Jesson said. “I think young people appreciate books, collect them and want them – and that bodes well for the future.”

As part of the campaign, volunteers from Surrey’s RCMP district offices and the Surrey Crime Prevention Society will be out daily conducting parking-lot audits and ICBC’s Lock Out Auto Crime program. There will also be steering-wheel lock giveaways to residents who driver older-model vehicles that are often targeted by thieves.

…on the Semiahmoo Peninsula

Totems lead South Surrey schools at B.C. Cross-Country Championships

Semiahmoo runs to junior girls crown Nick Greenizan Sports Reporter

The rain didn’t dampen the spirits – nor the speed – of hundreds of high-school runners who battled through the inclement weather in order to cross the finish line at B.C. Cross-Country Championships Saturday at Aldergrove Lake Park. And from South Surrey schools, no runners fared better than those competing in the 4.3-km junior girls race. Thanks to a handful of top-20 finishes, Semiahmoo won the overall team award, edging Vancouver’s Little Flower Academy and Langley’s Walnut Grove Secondary, who finished second and third, respectively. Heading into Saturday’s championship, Semiahmoo coach Scott Yewchuk predicted his junior girls squad would be among the top contenders, even with a few of his junior-aged girls running in the senior event. Semiahmoo’s Haley Ribiero was the top Peninsula finisher, placing sixth in a time of 17 minutes, 11.61 seconds, while her Totem teammate Jessica Williams was seventh, seven seconds back of Ribiero. Semi’s Dominika Paige and Julia Greer were 11th and 13th, respectively, while Elgin Park’s Danielle Steer, in 14th, and Earl Marriott’s Georgia Ginther, who was 15th, also finished inside the top 20. The junior girls banner capped an incredible year for Semiahmoo, whose teams nabbed multiple titles at Surrey and Fraser Valley Championships last month. Before provincials even began, Yewchuk called the season the school’s “best ever.” Other Surrey runners to fare well in the junior girls race Saturday included Semi’s Emily Liang (23rd), Sullivan Heights’ Emma Kramer (35th), Marriott’s Carly Good (45th) and Sullivan’s Alyssa Terry (46th). The soggy race – in which 223 runners took part – was won by Taryn O’Neill from George Elliott Secondary (Kelowna), who crossed the finish line in 16:40.82. In the junior boys race, which was also 4.3 km, Semiahmoo’s Connor Jackson was the fleetest afoot among the locals, finishing fifth in a time of 15:06.19. His teammate, Dawson Ribiero, was 15th, while Earl Marriott runner Jackson Silvester-Lee was 21st, nine seconds back of the top 20. In the 4.3-km senior girls run – which was won by Salmon Arm’s Glynis Sim – the top South Surrey runner was Chelsea Ribiero, in 19th, while Clayton Heights runner Christina Sevsek was 23th out of a field of 232. In the 6.3-km senior boys race, Kwantlen Park’s Michael Abreha was the top Surrey runner, placing fifth, while the first south-end runner across the line was Semiahmoo’s Brandon Figueroa, in 17th. White Rock Christian Academy’s Jordan Gin was 26th and EMS runner Sterling Ginther placed 33rd. More than 240 runners competed in the senior boys race. The top Surrey school was Kwantlen Park, which placed ninth overall in the team standings; White Rock Christian was 14th and Semi 16th out of 25 schools.

Kwantlen Polytechnic University will host the Canadian Colleges Athletic Association’s (CCAA) women’s soccer national championship Wednesday through Saturday at Newton Athletic Park. They are hoping the tournament will be among the most successful, and are guaranteed it will be the largest. For the first time, the championship tournament is an eight -team competition, up from six in previous years. The five league champions from across the country, along with the host Eagles and two wild-cards will be competing. The RSEQ (Quebec) conference and the Alberta Colleges Athletic Association (ACAC) have earned the wild-cards for this year’s tournament based on their success over the past three seasons. The Indiennes d’Ahuntsic are the defending CCAA champions, but are just third in the national rankings. RSEQ champion Elans de Garneau holds down to top spot, followed by the ACAC champion MacEwan Griffins. The Thompson Rivers University Wolfpack of Kamloops are the PACWEST (Pacific Western Conference) champions and are ranked fourth. Elans de Garneau will be the first opponent for the host Kwantlen

Eagles, who are coming off a 2-7-4 (won-losttied) record in the PACWEST league.

OBITUARIES

CUSSEN, Dorothy Louise January 4, 1925 October 29, 2013

KRAFT, Kris Lance February 18, 1946 October 23, 2013 Kris passed away peacefully in bed on October 23, 2013 at the age of 67. He arrived on February 18, 1946 in Chicago Illinois, the first of four children born to Warren & Virginia Kraft. Kris grew up in Eugene, Oregon and Mill Valley, California. He graduated Phi Beta Kappa from UC Berkeley. He then moved to Canada and pursued a master’s degree in mathematics. Kris taught at Capilano College in North Vancouver before moving to Prince George to take a teaching position at the College of New Caledonia. He then returned to the Lower Mainland, making his home in South Surrey, BC. He worked at Ebco Industries until his retirement. While at Ebco he served as Chief Shop Steward and was an active member of Iron Workers Local Shop Division 712. Kris was a talented musician and mathematician. His favourite pastime was to unravel perplexing puzzles. His hobbies included developing a solution manual to the Rubik’s Cube and creating his own Sudoku puzzles which he submitted to local newspapers. Kris was pre-deceased by his father, Warren Kraft and his brother, Konrad Kraft. He is survived by daughters Roselyn Kraft and Laura Creech, sonin-law Andy Creech, grandchildren: Jordan, Brooklyn and Carson, mother Virginia Kraft, brother Kenneth Kraft, sister Karen Miller and nephews Burke and Miles Miller.

After spending loving hours with both of her daughters, Dorothy was sent on her way with a kiss from her husband, Noel “See you in Heaven” he whispered. Dorothy was cherished by her children, Jim (Meg), Siobhan (Wayne) and Melissa (Gerald) and adored by her grandchildren, Kevin, Liam, Jessica, Brendan, Taylor and Michaela. She was predeceased by her mother Rose, her father Percy, her brother Leo and her dear sister, Mona. She was born in Liverpool England. Dorothy believed each day of her life was a gift and shared that belief with everyone she touched, bringing a ray of sunshine to even the darkest days. She always found the bright star in every situation and found a way of standing behind everyone’s thoughts and wishes. She loved playing Bridge with “her girls”, and was a loyal volunteer with the Red Cross and the Hospital Auxiliary for as long as she could. Dorothy did not fear death and was at peace with herself. She went when she was ready and on her own terms. Heartfelt thank-you’s to the angels at Ocean View Care home where she lived for the last year of her life. Your love and care was endless and meant the world to all of us. We all have our memories with Dorothy and she would want us to carry them happily with us in our hearts. A Celebration of Dorothy’s Life will be held at Victory Memorial Park Funeral Centre, 14831 28th Avenue, Surrey, on Tuesday, November 5 at 2:00 pm followed by a gathering at their family home. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Canadian Cancer Society. Rest in Peace Dot. We all loved you. Hasta La Vista. Condolences may be offered at www.victoryfuneralcentre.ca

OBITUARIES

JACKSON, Barbara (Pye, Ellis) Barbara Anne Jackson, 90, of Surrey died on Sunday, October 27th peacefully at home. She was born to the late Charles Leonard and Jessie Marie Ellis, November 24, 1922 in Fawley, Southhampton, England. Memories of her childhood with her brother, John and her many trips to England to see family and friends were very important to her. In 1945, she married a Canadian soldier, John William Pye and immigrated to Canada as a war bride in 1946. From Pier 21 in Halifax she bravely journeyed by train to Vancouver. Barbara’s early life in Canada was spent in North Vancouver followed by a move to Vancouver Island where she resided for many years in Parksville and Courtney. Divorced from John, Barbara married Amos Jackson in 1972. They relocated to Surrey in 1997. Widowed in 1997, Barbara made many new friends and kept busy volunteering in her new community. Barbara worked as a bookkeeper and bank teller in North Vancouver and established her own bookkeeping business when she moved to Vancouver Island. She never lost her interest in finance and her organizational skills were exceptional. She loved to travel and met many people who welcomed her into their homes. Barbara was an excellent knitter and loved needlework, reading, and English TV dramas. Barbara is survived by two children: Cherry Harriman of Surrey and Susan Pye of Cobble Hill. She is also survived by three grandchildren: Sharel Wentz (Bob) of Langley; Julie Harriman (John Kraus) of Huntington Beach, CA and David Harriman (Erika) of Vancouver and five greatgrandchildren: Liam, Maia, Eleanor, Aidan and Sasha. Barbara will be deeply missed by family, friends and neighbours who valued her wisdom, her humour and her generosity. Their companionship during her later years made life worth living and she loved her connections with people of all generations who brought excitement and fun into her home. There is no service by her request but a tea to honour Barbara will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, the family is requesting that donations be made to Covenant House, Vancouver, a charity established to help homeless young people. Address: 575 Drake St. Vancouver, B.C.

LEGEER, Margret Tannis With great sorrow, we say good-bye to Margret Tannis Legeer who left us on October 21, 2013 after a courageous battle with cancer. Margret was born in Prince Rupert, BC and was then raised in Vancouver where she met and married the love of her life, Ronald J. Legeer in June 1945. As a naval officer’s wife, she lived in both Ottawa and Washington, D.C. before settling in the White Rock area in 1975. The joy of her life was raising her children, her son, Richard Legeer and daughter Karen Legeer. She adored the many dogs, the family had and rejoiced in the beautiful gardens she helped create. Margret took great pride in supporting the Peace Arch Hospital auxiliary through her volunteer work. She is survived by her husband of 68 years, Ronald J. Legeer, her son, Richard Legeer (Josie), her loving daughter, Karen Legeer, her grandsons, Beau and Sean Legeer and four great-granddaughters. She will be lovingly remembered by her nephews, Michael Anderson (Denise) and Rick (Karin) and their families.
