At four, Kate Bishop has had three open-heart surgeries, with two more expected
Man charged in most recent Surrey homicide
‘Her spirit is amazing’
Dean Anderson, 44, faces seconddegree murder and aggravated assault charges
by Sarah Massah FOCUSED ON THE CARTOON playing on the iPad
propped up on the kitchen counter, four-year-old Kate Bishop giggles and squeals as the characters jump around on screen. The sound is turned down, but Kate doesn’t mind. To someone who had just met the carefree South Surrey toddler, it would be hard to believe that in her short life she has endured three openheart surgeries – with two more expected in the future – after being born with a rare heart defect called truncus arteriosus. Alexandria “We went into survival mode,� Kate’s mother, Bishop Alexandria, recalled of finding out about the cardiovascular anomaly. “We went numb and just dealt with the situation.� Kate’s first open-heart surgery was scheduled when she was just six weeks old. Instead having a separate pulmonary artery and aorta, each with their own three-leafed valves, Kate only had one great blood vessel – or trunk – leaving the heart, which then branches into blood vessels that go to the lungs and body. Doctors created a connection between the right ventricle and the pulmonary arteries using a valved conduit. As her heart grows, she will need to go for surgery to replace the conduit. “It’s unbelievable, though. She’s so incredibly strong-willed and resilient,� Alexandria said, with husband David noting that after her second surgery, she only spent five days at the hospital
by Kevin Diakiw A MAN HAS BEEN arrested and charged in connection to the murder of one man in Surrey last month and assault of another. On Nov. 23, Richard Lomas was killed and Donovan Foster seriously injured during an altercation at an illegal after-hours establishment. A fight took place at a property that had been shut down as an illegal bar in April, according to the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT). “Inside that residence there were approximately 30 to 50 individuals,� said Sgt. Jennifer Pound, spokesperson for the IHIT. On Dec. 4, police arrested 44-year-old Dean Anderson in connection with the homicide and the assault. Anderson appeared in Surrey Provincial Court Thursday on charges of second degree murder of Lomas and aggravated assault of Foster. His next appearance is in January. The murder of Lomas marked Surrey’s 23rd homicide of the year, an all-time high for the city. The previous record was 21 in 2005.
“We went into survival mode.�

Port Mann toll discount stays until new year Price most pay to cross doubles from $1.50 to $3 on Jan. 1 by Jeff Nagel THE HALF-PRICE TOLLS to cross
the Port Mann Bridge will remain in effect until Jan. 1, 2014 when the year-long discount ends and motorists who now pay $1.50 will be charged the full $3. Officials previously expected to open all the new Highway 1 lanes

through Coquitlam and Burnaby in early to mid-December and said the discount would be eliminated at that time. Now they say all the new lanes will be open before Christmas but the toll discount will be kept in place for the rest of the month. About 20 per cent of regular vehicles using the bridge already pay the full $3 toll, while 80 per cent qualified for the 50 per cent discount by signing up with the TReO electronic tolling system within three months of the bridge opening last December. Final work on the project will continue next year. The bridge won’t open the final two of its 10 lanes until next summer, when the old Port Mann Bridge will be fully dismantled and the outer lanes can be connected to the bridge approaches.
Pacific Assistance Dog Society (PADS) dog Torino sits with third-year SFU psychology student Shannon Smith.
Puppy love de-stresses students Service dogs come to SFU Surrey to ease exam worries by Greg Laychak IN A SUNNY CORNER of SFU’s Surrey campus, five dogs
lounged, sniffed students and received a constant flow of attention. They were an integral part of the De-Stress Fest held campus-wide Tuesday to help ease the anxiety of students during exam time. Puppy cuddling was not the only activity on hand: cakein-a-mug, aromatherapy bags and a Zumba session were also available for students who needed a break. But few passers-by could resist the Pacific Assistance Dog Society (PADS) canines waiting for a scratch behind the ears. “It’s nice to come to relax and just play with the puppies,”
“There’s just something about dogs that makes you forget about everything else.” Kristin Sedore
said Shannon Smith, a third-year psychology and criminology major who shared time with Torino, a Labrador retriever. “They’re absolutely adorable. This one seems to be really calm,” she said, petting the blond five-month-old Torino in a momentary escape from her busy study schedule. Torino’s puppy raiser, Kristin Sedore, said she’d seen a lot of smiles from visitors at the school throughout the day. “There’s just something about dogs that makes you forget about everything else,” said Sedore. “And it’s great for [the dogs] because it’s great socialization for them.” The event was social practice for the PADS dogs as they train for a placement assisting a physically disabled or deaf person.
Fighting for safe passage for his granddaughter Four year old’s grandfather asks city for street sign alerting drivers to her hearing impairment by Kevin Diakiw FIGHTING FOR HIS four-year-old granddaughter, Richard Landale
Kate Bishop
wants something very simple from the city – a small sign alerting traffic that there’s deaf kids at play. Landale appeared before the city’s transportation committee Dec. 2 (his second visit to the group over the issue) to put forward the argument that his granddaughter will be safer with a sign on the street in both directions. Kate Bishop, 4, lost her hearing when she was a year old. Landale is afraid as she grows, she won’t hear traffic coming near their home in the 1200-block of 161A Street. Kate’s mom didn’t have time in her day to argue the case to the transportation committee, but Landale is happy to pick up the fight. He told the committee there are hundreds of signs throughout the city warning drivers of potential hazards, including children at play,
school zones, cyclists, etc. “Even deer crossing,” he said. Surely, he argued, a deaf child deserves the same effort to create a safe environment. City staff noted several other nearby cities that examined the issue of signs for the deaf and ruled it out, primarily because the signs don’t change the behaviour of drivers. One city that had them is now taking them down, staff said. Kate’s mother Alexandria told The Leader the family would happily pay for the signs and alert the city when they move so that the sign could be taken down. The transportation committee referred the issue to engineering staff for more study. Landale was content with their time and consideration. “I’ve had a quality hearing,” Landale said after the meeting. “When I get a final 'no' I’m going to make it personal.”

but the South Surrey mother remembers vividly the day she knew there was something awry. “We were living in a home with hardwood floors, and the keys fell from the counter right beside her, and there was no reaction,” she said. “She didn’t flinch, she didn’t get startled.” In February 2010, Kate was diagnosed with mild to moderate hearing loss. As she has grown, the hearing loss has progressed. Last week, the family appealed to the City of Surrey to place signs alerting drivers of a deaf child in the area (see page 3). The busy family, which includes Kate’s three-year-old brother Luke, has also been raising funds each summer for B.C. Children’s Hospital with their Kuz of Kate event, which features a one- or five-km run through Queen Elizabeth Park, followed by a carnival celebration. At the fourth-annual fundraiser in June, the family brought in more than $10,000, bringing their total contribution to nearly $40,000. Despite the tumultuous four years, Kate shows no signs of slowing down, Alexandria said. “Her spirit is amazing. She’s loving and affectionate and she’s always smiling and laughing,” Alexandria said.

TRAIN TRACKS
RAESIDE
Don’t diffuse rail concern
W
e’re told there are two sides to every story. Hardly. For anybody paying attention to the polygonous rail saga on the Semiahmoo Peninsula, there are as many sides to the issue as there have been trains winding their way along the waterfront since the Great Northern Railway opened the route in 1909. Even before White Rock Mayor Wayne Baldwin announced last month that he and Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts have been discussing moving the tracks inland, residents have been making their voices heard on all things train related. Protests of coal traffic – and fears a proposed coal-terminal expansion will increase it – are merely the most recent manifestation of decades of concern. Apart from safety, noise and health concerns related to rail traffic, we have also heard much about notions quite contrary to moving the tracks. Our neighbours to the south, for example, must be a little confused about Canadians’ attitude to the BNSF line – particularly since the last thing they heard was a community gung-ho to have passenger trains once again stop in White Rock. And the Americans have their own dreams, including an economic revival spurred by the reopening of the historic Blaine Station. It seems the dream of relocating the line – however desirable – is serving as a distraction from more pressing issues concerning rail traffic through our communities. We should not lose focus on the need for basic rail safety, and protection from the shipping of dangerous goods, and those, like coal, that pose a subtler but no-less-real health and environmental threat. And we should not lose sight of the fact that more factors are at play here than simply a desire for safety. The historic reason we have rails on the waterfront is that more than a century ago, a multimillionaire with dreams of making White Rock a major international port city wanted it so, and the arrival of the track was welcomed by pioneers and real estate speculators alike. Is it too far-fetched to see profit motives – both through increased property values in White Rock and increasing development along a new rail corridor – underlying some of our current move-the-rails altruism? We must continue to add our voice to those across the nation who are calling for stronger safeguards on existing rail traffic, rather than letting these calls be diffused by smoke and mirrors. – Black Press

he federal government stepped up its sales pitch for new pipelines to the B.C. coast last week, as it prepares for the imminent release of the federal review panel’s report on the feasibility of the Enbridge Northern Gateway project. Transport Minister Lisa Raitt and Natural Resources Minister Joe Oliver arrived in Vancouver to release an expert panel’s report on the current state of tanker safety on the West Coast. It was the first of two reports that tell the Stephen Harper government in blunt terms how steep a hill it must climb to enable energy exports to Asia. Oliver gave a speech to the Vancouver Board of Trade the following morning, where he vowed to implement one of the panel’s key recommendations. Legislation is coming to ensure that polluters, not taxpayers, must pay for any environmental damage from resource development and transport. The panel was chaired by Gordon Houston, a former Prince Rupert harbourmaster and CEO of Port Metro Vancouver. Its report details the little-noticed fact that

opposition is against oil, particularly heavy oil in tankers. Politics and protesters aside, these are the facts for B.C. The prosperous provinces in Canada today are Alberta, Saskatchewan and Newfoundland, based mainly on energy development. The rest are struggling. B.C. continues to lose skilled workers to Alberta, where oil sands development continues to expand despite the continuing chorus of U.S.-financed misrepresentation of its environmental impact. It’s a key moment in Canadian history. This is where we see if we can go beyond our status as a client state of the U.S. This year’s B.C. election, where pandering to urban protest backfired on the NDP, suggests a new seriousness in the public mood. More people understand today that our comfortable modern society with free-access health care is a fragile thing. We have it better than most of the world, for now.

Don’t cater to the White Rock elites Stand up for our land and water RE: THE recent meeting regarding the train
track re-alignment proposal for the White Rock and South Surrey elites. I guess an election must be coming soon. Why are the cities to pay the $400- to $500-million cost to relocate the tracks? I think if people refuse to obey the safety rules and walk along the rail tracks without paying attention, that is their own problem. If the track foundations or infrastructure are faulty, then go after the owner – the railway company. I moved to the Morgan Creek area to
specifically get away from all the railway noise in my old neighbourhood of Fraser Heights eight years ago. I bought in the Morgan Creek area knowing there were no train tracks in my area. Now White Rock and Ocean Park residents (who also purchased their homes knowing full well the train tracks were in their area) expect me to sit back and allow them to relocate the train tracks to my area? Not a chance. Furthermore, they want my taxes to rise to pay for their relocation costs? Not a chance. I guess the fact that a track relocation will
also increase the elites’ property values is not worth mentioning either. Bad optics, I guess. I and the 99 per cent of Surrey residents completely disagree with a track relocation that favors only the one per cent. I understand Mayor Dianne Watts needs to be seen to be doing something for the unhappy, noisy elites in White Rock and Ocean Park but not at my (or the rest of Surrey’s) expense.

Why is tax, tax, tax the only answer?
RE: “TOLLS at border proposed,” The Leader, Dec. 3. So Vancouver transportation planner Eric Doherty thinks it’s a great idea to toll the roads leading up to the borders - the same roads and borders that our taxes already paid for. Now they want to tax us to drive on them to restrict our freedom of movement and choice of destinations. It seems that the only answer politicians can come up with (after spending thousands of dollars on studies) is tax, tax, tax, and of course they will all jump on the band wagon because none of them can formulate a thought of their own or come up with a better answer. Doherty states that it would reduce congestion and notes people with a more legitimate reason to visit the U.S. would have shorter waits. Well I think my reasons for crossing the border are just as legitimate and should not be restricted because of unjust tax. I wonder what the feds will think of this money-grabbing scheme, as they introduced the Nexus pass to speed up border crossings. The reason people shop across the border is because of lower taxes, price of goods, quality and choice of goods and to save money that families are in need of because of the amount of taxes we already pay here. And Doherty wants to tax us more? More tolls, higher Hydro, higher gas costs, higher ferry costs, higher property taxes… where will it end? It seems that everything we do we are taxed on and that is why people cross the border to save money. Just watch the price of goods and gas go up here if this tax goes into effect. Maybe Doherty and friends should come up with a better plan on how to keep Canadians shopping at home and earn their salaries. I thought we lived in Canada. The Charter guarantees us freedom of movement and choice, along with the Constitution. I guess not. It seems like we’re living in a communist country more than in Canada.

Eric Doherty: First off, let me explain to you that I am a tax-paying citizen of this country, and to have you suggest to your Moving in Metro Summit buddies that what I do while going about my lawful business while visiting the U.S. is in any way your business, is simply ridiculous. This is Canada. What I, or anyone else from Canada, B.C., Surrey, or wherever does legally across the border is none of your concern. To even suggest that people are tax evaders or not paying their fair share for crossing the border is outrageous. To suggest a toll (tax) to do so, is in my opinion, out of touch with reality. Everyone in this country has the right to purchase anything, legally, from anywhere. You and your whole group of so-called “planners” have no right to brand any
citizen of Canada who crosses the border to the U.S. The people of B.C. are taxed to death. Overpaid, bloated planners are just grabbing at every “get a buck” idea they can. Get out of my wallet. I have had enough. Robert Gary Parkes Port Kells
Cost of commodities fuels cross-border trips IT IS a punitive step to impose tax
on border crossings under the pretext of to stopping cash from flowing into Washington State. Maybe Canadian dollars should stay within our territory and be utilized towards Canadian services, but we need to seek some sensible solution instead of bringing extra tax and harming those in society with meagre incomes. Why do our political leaders
and policy makers seem less concerned to discuss with the Canadian business community the prices of basic commodities, which are always shooting sky high and making life difficult life lowincome families. It is necessary to create situations that give consumers a better deal locally; this will stop them from going across the border. If Canadian items are expensive, then don’t expect U.S. consumers come to Canada or for our economy to reap any benefit. Canadians have been faithfully paying their fair share of taxes like income tax, sales tax, carbon tax, property tax, bridge tolls and many more. There is no need to come up with another tax. To attract more shoppers and benefit the Canadian economy, make basic products available at a cheaper cost. Hanif A. Patel Surrey
IT’S REALLY wonderful to think
that a company like Kinder Morgan wants to help the communities of British Columbia by building the new pipeline. Great! Gee, the city of Chilliwack will even receive $1 million a year in taxes. Let’s celebrate. It’s a winwin situation, is it not? Let’s put a new perspective on the situation. Why not make two major demands before this project is accepted? 1. That the 60-year-old existing pipeline be completely replaced. Earthquakes anyone? 2. That Kinder Morgan builds refineries in Alberta to convert the tar sands to oil first so that we don’t have deadly bitumen poisons flowing across our clean waters and farmlands, and shipped across the ocean. Sure it will cost them big bucks but keep one fact in mind. Richard Kinder is currently the 112th richest man on the planet who stands to get richer by building his pipeline. It’s our land Mr. Kinder and his buddies are profiting from, and they can certainly meet our demands if our governments make a deal, rather than act like naive children handed some candy for being good. Those payments they’ll pay are taxes levied by the federal government and have to be paid anyway, not anything “extra” that would normally not be paid. Let’s stand up and protect our land and water with real solid investments that will benefit everyone and not accept their bribe. They have no better choice, and we do have the upper hand in this deal, why not play it? If we don’t, in the future we’re probably going to look very foolish. Robbin Yager Chilliwack

A LIGHTED CROSSWALK is coming to the street where three pedestrians were struck, one of them fatally. Amarpeet Sivia, 16, was killed and two of her friends hospitalized in September, after a motorcycle hit them when they were walking across 128 Street near 69 Avenue. The students of Princess Margaret Secondary were jaywalking when they were hit. The tragedy spurred a call for better crossings in the area. The city’s transportation committee met last Monday and said Amarpreet the city is ready to move forward Sivia with a lighted crossing south of 72 Avenue. Several other measures, including fencing near the school, will also be used to deter teens from jaywalking. The city says it will begin work on the project in January.

15-yearold girl struck Teen airlifted to hospital last week by Tracy Holmes A 15-YEAR-OLD South
Surrey student was airlifted to hospital with non-life-threatening head injuries Wednesday evening after she was struck by a truck in a marked crosswalk. An RCMP police spokesman said the teen was wearing dark clothing when she stepped into the crosswalk in front of Elgin Park Secondary, in the 13400block of 24 Avenue, at around 5:30 p.m. and was hit by a westbound Ford F150. A Dec. 5 letter to parents from EPS principal Bruce Filsinger notes the Grade 10 student “is going to be fine.” “There are no internal injuries or head injuries and the student was being kept overnight for observation purposes only,” the letter states. The teen was airlifted to hospital from nearby South Surrey Athletic Park. The truck driver, a 54-year-old Surrey man, told police he didn’t see the pedestrian. He remained at the scene. No charges have been laid. The investigation is ongoing.

Unions fight back against violent attacks by Jeff Nagel
THREE UNIONS representing TransLink employees are helping put up $15,000 in reward money to fight back against assailants who violently attack Metro Vancouver bus drivers. Half of the money is coming from Coast Mountain Bus Co. and the District of West Vancouver, increasing the reward offer from a previous $2,000 for information leading to the conviction of those responsible for bus driver assaults. “It’s unacceptable,” said Nathan Woods, president of Unifor local 111, which represents bus mechanics and SeaBus workers. “Our members are disgusted and our riders are appalled that
Truck driver killed Black Press
A DEC. 1 collision between two tractortrailers on the TransCanada Highway claimed the life of a 30-year-old Surrey man. BC Coroners Service officials identified Gurpreet Singh Sidhu as the driver killed in the 12:30 p.m. crash that occurred about 34 kilometres east of Revelstoke. According the RCMP, the two trucks hit head-on. Preliminary investigation points to weather as a factor, he said, noting one of the trucks had jack-knifed prior to impact. Sidhu was the sole occupant of the westbound commercial transport truck he was driving. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
violence against bus drivers continues at extremely high levels, with over 1,260 assaults in the past eight years.” Union leaders say dangerous attacks on drivers have happened while buses are moving, posing a threat to passengers as well. There have been 124 driver assaults so far in 2013. Nearly two dozen cases have gone to court this year, with six convictions so far. “Being punched, kicked, choked, spit on or even verbally and physically threatened while simply doing your job trying to get riders safely to their destination is totally devastating and demoralizing for bus drivers,” said Unifor’s Ruth Armstrong, adding lost work days and medical care also cost the broader public.

He coordinates a group of teachers working towards a more inquiry-based approach, while integrating tools such as electronic tablets which teens use to create videos and blogs to stimulate peer discussion. Stipp also ensures his students are engaged citizens through activities like raising funds for various charitable organizations and volunteering at seniors homes. “Mr. Stipp taught us about real issues and always made learning relevant to our lives by connecting us to the global community through lessons, fundraisers, and life stories,” said one student. “He made us want to come to school, want to learn, and want to strive for better. Students admire him, are inspired by him, and reach new limits because of him.” A colleague pointed to the number of students, past and present, who are in Stipp’s classroom at lunch and after school. “It is on this foundation of genuine trust that (Stipp) has built his practice and is at the core of what teaching is about – the developing of understanding to improve the way that we relate to each other.” Intended to honour Canada’s outstanding and innovative teachers, the annual national awards recognize instructors who instill a love of learning in their students and use information and technology to better equip kids to meet future challenges. Stipp’s award includes $1,000 for professional development, website development or the purchase of equipment or other teaching resources.

Regulator scolds TransLink property sell off as imprudent Bus buying plans may also be scuttled by Metro mayors by Jeff Nagel
TRANSLINK IS being criticized by its independent regulator for its decision to inappropriately sell off surplus property to avoid transit service cuts or fare increases. TransLink commissioner Robert Irwin issued that warning in his review of the transportation authority’s new 2014 plan and outlook, but also noted the move is unavoidable because there’s no deal yet with the province to approve new revenue sources. “The sale of assets to support operations is not prudent fiscal policy,” his report says. “The only other recourse for TransLink would be fare increases or service reductions in the absence of additional funding sources.” TransLink has been drawing down its cumulative reserve on the basis new funding would be approved in time to avert cuts. But the province’s decision that there be a referendum in 2014 on new sources has delayed the expected arrival of sustainable funding and cast doubt on whether it will be approved. TransLink envisions selling major unused properties to raise $40 million in 2016 and $110 million in 2017 to

“The sale of assets to support operations is not prudent fiscal policy.” Robert Irwin rather than being bled away to keep the system running. “It’s just the worst strategy,” Richmond Mayor Malcolm Brodie said. “All you’re really doing is deferring a problem and increasing the downward spiral.” While transit service would be maintained at current levels under the plan, Irwin notes it will not keep up with the region’s rising population, meaning riders can expect deteriorating conditions. Transit service hours per capita are projected to decline back to 2007 levels by 2016 and to 2004 levels by 2020. Irwin also flagged rising labour costs as a concern after a new three-year contract signed earlier this year lifted wages for bus drivers and other unionized staff. TransLink’s $1.44 billion in annual revenue
small regional sales tax, a share of the carbon tax or, eventually, road pricing. George Heyman, the NDP’s critic on TransLink, said the government’s insistence on a referendum on new sources will condemn transit riders to worse overcrowding and longer waits in the years ahead. The commissioner also warned TransLink’s bus replacement program may be derailed if Metro Vancouver politicians block the continued allocation to TransLink of 100 per cent of federal gas tax transfers, set to be renewed next spring. That money can only be spent on capital projects, not operating costs. Metro mayors have criticized TransLink’s capital spending priorities in the past and have indicated they may seek

to instead channel some of the federal gas tax money to municipal or regional projects, such as sewage treatment plant replacements. TransLink plans to spend $367 million from the federal transfers to buy new buses and upgrade SkyTrain infrastructure. Burnaby Mayor Derek Corrigan has challenged the recent choice to buy compressed natural gas buses, which he suspects is a politically motivated decision linked to the province’s natural gas strategy.

Province urged to block new coal terminal Climate change, marine impacts stressed by opponents by Jeff Nagel A COALITION of coal
export opponents on Thursday denounced an
environmental review of a planned new terminal at Fraser Surrey Docks and urged the province to help dissuade Port
Metro Vancouver from quickly giving the project the green light. The deadline for comments on the
environmental impact assessment (EIA) is Dec. 17 and critics fear the port will make a decision soon after.

“Municipalities representing over a million people are either opposed to this or, at a minimum, want a comprehensive health assessment,” Communities and Coal campaigner Paula Williams said. “It would be irresponsible for the port to proceed and approve this proposal.” Tyee Bridge of the group Fraser Riverkeeper said coal barges heading down the Fraser River and across Georgia Strait would pass through critical rearing habitat for endangered white sturgeon. “This report doesn’t tell us how much coal is going to escape and it doesn’t contemplate any of the impacts on marine habitat,” Bridge said. Other marine life, including shellfish and the oysters of Fanny Bay, could be threatened, he suggested. Among the academics marshalled to the cause by environmental campaigners is SFU sustainable energy professor Mark Jaccard, who helped design B.C.’s climate change policy under Premier Gordon Campbell. Jaccard said in a statement the EIA is “utterly
inadequate” because it fails to consider climate change impacts, which

Port Metro Vancouver deems beyond its jurisdiction. “We should not be aiding and abetting the rapid expansion of havoc-creating carbon pollution here or abroad by increasing our production and shipping of coal,” he said.
Tim Takaro, another professor who stressed coal exports will contribute to runaway climate change, said new coal terminals are being blocked along the U.S. west coast. Chief medical health officers from Fraser Health and Vancouver Coastal Health have also called the environmental review inadequate, citing various flaws and insufficient consideration of potential health impacts from coal dust. Port Metro Vancouver issued a statement saying proponent Fraser Surrey Docks has addressed the fugitive dust issue by altering the planned terminal and ensuring anti-dust treatment of train cars that pass through White Rock and South Surrey. “Coal is a commodity that is already handled in the port and has been handled safely for decades,” it said, noting the additional coal to be shipped through the Surrey terminal equates to a 7.5 per cent increase in the port’s coalhandling capacity. The environmental assessment found coal dust poses no adverse risk of health effects along the BNSF railway or near the terminal.

The kindness of strangers Community’s generosity pours into the Surrey Christmas Bureau to help local families by Melissa Smalley
W
hile the meaning of Christmas is usually a mixture of family, faith and celebration, for most children it wouldn’t be Christmas without the presents. Yet there are families whose year-round struggles to make ends meet are compounded as the holiday season nears, and efforts to provide a little holiday happiness seem futile. For single mother-of-three Shelley Grant, those difficulties are all too familiar. It’s a tough topic to discuss for the 32-year-old, who lives in Surrey with daughter Kayleigh, 12, and sons Jayven, 6, and Malakai, 18 months. As a stay-at-home mom, Grant finds creative ways to get by each month – she has recently taken up coupon clipping in an effort to garner savings on her shopping bills – but admits that the holiday season often comes with a sense of Shelley Grant burden more so than a sense of good cheer. That is, until a few years ago, when Grant found the courage to ask for help. A client of the Surrey Christmas Bureau (SCB), her family receives presents, gift cards, diapers, formula and food vouchers from generous us donors across the city at a time when they need it the most, easing the stress of the holiday season and providingg her kids with a fun, memorable Christmas morning. ad on her family, Grant says, The impact the SCB has had is indescribable. “It’s hard to explain,” she says, ays, as tears well up in her eyes. “The generosity of people ple is amazing. There are so many things that my kids have ave got that I would never have been able to get them.” Having used the SCB’s services vices for five years off and on, Grant recalls that, at first, it was not easy accepting help from strangers. angers. “I have a hard time asking for ncomhelp, so at first I was really uncomfortable,” she says, encouraging ing others in her situation to visit it the SCB. pon“The first year we had a sponsor, and meeting them… thee emotions…” Grant trails off. l“I just remember her bawling,” Kayleigh chimes in with a giggle.
“The generosity of people is amazing.”
THE GRANTS are among hundreds of families helped each year by the Surrey Christmas Bureau, according to coordinator K.C. Gilroy. Last holiday season, the SCB registered approximately 1,700 families, including roughly 5,000 children in Surrey. Another 200 or 300 families are referred to otherr agencies, such as the Langleyy Christmas Bureau or Deltas-sist Family and Community Services, depending on where re
they live. This year the SCB has set up shop at 10636 King George Blvd., in the old Buy Rite Foods building – where dozens of volunteers are now registering applicants. In order to qualify for help, families must live within the boundaries of Surrey, must have a child aged 18 or younger and must be earning a low income. Of the 1,700 or so families that register, around 600 are placed into the Adopt-a-Family program, where they’re matched with donors from the community. Donors make contact with their adoptive families to find out the ages, interests and any particular wish-list items the children might have, then set up a day and time to deliver all the goodies – including food items and gift cards for Christmas dinner. Those who aren’t matched with donors have the opportunity to return and browse the large selection of donated toys and gift cards, as well as an extensive used-items department. Although things wrap up at the SCB by Dec. 21, Gilroy makes a point of being on-site on Christmas Eve, in case someone happens to come by looking for last-minute help. A few years ago she was visited by a parole officer the night before Christmas, wondering if they’d be able to help a woman who was just released from custody. “It was the first time she had her kids for Christmas, and she had just been released,” Gilroy explains, noting they were able to set the woman up with a number of essential items. “That’s why I hang around on Christmas Eve.”
How to help IT TAKES A HUGE
network of dedicated volunteers and donors to ensure
the Christmas season runs smoothly at the Surrey Christmas Bureau and for those who seek its help. Each year, as the number of families seeking assistance grows, so does the need for help. The biggest demand is for those willing to sponsor a family – it could be a business, a family or a group of friends wanting to give back this holiday season. If you can’t sponsor a family, simply taking up a collection at your workplace and then going on a shopping spree for toys to donate is another great way to help. “Items for teens are always tough for us – things like Eagles tickets, hockey sticks or cosmetics,” Gilroy said. “Even though they’re a bit older, they still want to be a part of Christmas.” If you have a truck and are willing to volunteer some operations. time, drivers are an integral part of the SCB’s S Becoming involved with the bureau is not only a great way to help long-term Surrey families, such s as the Grants, but also those who have arrived in the ccommunity from war-torn regions across the world, seeki seeking a safer life for their families. “I always say you can judge the global strife by who’s in they saw an influx line,” Gilroy says, noting that last year th of Syrian families seeking help. “The really moving thing for me m is when a family toys or a cheque will come in and bring some to and say, ‘six years ago, when we first came here, the Christmas bureau helped us,’” she that much says. “It makes me love Canada Can more, and love living here.” give back to an The opportunity to giv provided so much organization that has p says she hopes for is something Grant sa one day, too.

The 1st Stray of Christmas
The 2nd Stray of Christmas
BERT is a young adult male orange tabby manx mix, about 1-2 years old. He is a little shy at first, but don’t let that coy act fool you! Once he gets comfortable with a person, he turns into a playing machine and is full of energy. He would be a great addition to a home that likes an interactive kitty pal, and has the time to play games with him. Bert’s adoption fee is $150, and he is neutered, tattooed and microchipped!
CHAMPAGNE is a sweet little teddy bear hamster who enjoys being held and playing in her roller ball. Champagne would be an excellent little pet for older children who can handle her safely and spend time with her every day. Her adoption fee is $10.00.
Merry Christmas!
The 3rd Stray of Christmas HOT COFFEE AKA ROGI is a young adult female greyhound dog. Hot Coffee has raced in her former life a little bit, and would be a great low key companion for someone who no small animals or cats, and who can take her for a daily run in a securely fenced off leash area or large yard. She would also be a fun dog to do recreational lure coursing with! She is a sweet and gentle dog who appreciates a quiet person a warm bed by a fireplace. She may be too shy for young children, but she is excellent with other dogs, especially other sighthounds. Her adoption fee is $200.00 and she is spayed, tattooed and microchipped!

The 5th Stray of Christmas MARY is a senior kitty cat who wishes she had a home of her own for Christmas, rather than spending it at the shelter. Mary is a talkative cat who likes to chat with her person and tell them about her day. She is very affectionate and can be demanding about her chin scratches, so her new human should be someone who likes a cat that walks all over them! Mary’s adoption fee is $80.00 and she is spayed, tattooed and microchipped!
ELOISE is an adult female mastiff mix, so she is a big girl! She also has a big heart, and despite being almost totally blind, Eloise wants a person she can trust who will not change the furniture around on her. Although Eloise weighs about 100lbs, she thinks she is a lap dog and wants to cuddle with everyone. She is nervous because she can see very little and will eventually be totally blind, she should have a securely fenced yard to exercise in when she is not snuggled up with her person on the sofa. Eloise’s adoption fee is $200 and she is spayed, tattooed and microchipped!
The 6th Stray of Christmas IPKISS is a middle aged male sable ferret. He is a very gentle fellow who never bites and likes to spend time curled up in your sweatshirt for a good nap. He uses his litter box and keeps his home very tidy! Like most ferrets, he likes to climb on, under and through just about anything, so adopters should do their research about how to keep him safe before adopting so Ipkiss doesn’t end up at the shelter again!

She is a very lovely girl who wants to be with her people all the time and doesn’t enjoy being left alone at all – she has a big beagle voice and is not afraid to use it! She would probably love a beagle friend in her new home, for they enjoy the company of other hounds. Like most beagles, Sweety needs to be on leash at all times as she will follow her nose! She will be a wonderful new family member and hopes to spend Christmas in her new home rather than in the shelter. Sweety is spayed, tattooed and microchipped and her adoption fee is $250.00

Joliet is a little more outgoing than his brother, but they both love to beg for almonds and orange slices. Chinchillas are quiet pets who don’t like to be handled a lot, but can be very entertaining, especially in their daily sand bath! Joilet and his brother come with a large cage so give us a call to make sure it will fit in your car!

Devils struggle to score Junior B hockey team drops two games in PJHL play by Rick Kupchuk SCORING ONE goal
in a game likely won’t be enough for a win in the Pacific Junior Hockey League (PJHL). The North Delta Devils learned scoring once in two games isn’t going to get the job done either. The North Delta Devils were blanked 8-0 by the North Vancouver Wolf Pack Wednesday night in North Vancouver, then
were clipped 2-1 by the Ridge Meadows Flames Saturday at home in the Sungod Arena. The Wolf Pack held North Delta to just 18 shots on goal, scoring eight themselves on 28 shots at the Devils goal. North Vancouver was two-for-seven on the powerplay, while the Devils were scoreless on five chances. After a scoreless first 20 minutes, North Vancouver scored three goals in the second period before adding five more in
the third. On home ice Saturday, the Devils fired 42 shots at Ridge Meadows netminder – and former Devil – Tyler Read, but didn’t score until the game was out of reach. Thomas Cecchi scored the North Delta goal with just seven seconds to play, but the Flames already assured of a win with a 2-0 lead. Ridge Meadows scored midway through the first period, and again five minutes into the third. North Delta

Eagles top West Kelowna, drubbed in Penticton by Nick Greenizan THE WEEKEND started off well
for the Surrey Eagles, but ended miserably, leaving the team with another two-game split – and plenty of questions about their defensive play. On Friday in West Kelowna, the Eagles started slow but scored three times in the third to edge the West Kelowna Warriors 4-3, but things did not go nearly as well Saturday in Penticton, as the Interior Division-leading Vees – whom the Eagles defeated in last year’s BC Hockey League finals – ran roughshod over the Eagles, 7-1. And while Eagles head coach Peter Schaefer was happy with how Friday’s game ended – even if the start wasn’t great – he was less than enthused with Saturday’s performance. “It was just our level of compete – it wasn’t there. We didn’t come ready to play,” Schaefer said. “I thought we’d come out better, since we played them in the finals last year, and they’re a first-place team, but it was bad enough that I don’t even think you can use the game (as a measuring stick). “You just have to forget about it, throw it out.” Saturday, Penticton led 2-0 after the first period – on goals from Ben Dalpe and Brad McClure, the latter of whom leads the BCHL with 26 goals. In the middle frame, the Vees tagged Surrey with three more goals. The visiting Eagles didn’t get on the board until the 13:51 mark of the third period, when Danton Heinen beat Penticton netminder Olivier Mantha. Bo Didur took the loss in net for Surrey, stopping 26 shots on goal. Friday’s result was better, despite the slow start – “We came out really flat in both games,” Schaefer said – as a three-goals-in-five-minutes barrage gave Surrey the win.
JOE FRIES / BLACK PRESS
Michael McEachern of the Surrey Eagles can’t slow down Brad McClure of the Penticton Vees during a BCHL game Saturday in Penticton. The Vees won 7-1. Neither Surrey nor West Kelowna scored in the opening 20 minutes, but the Warriors led 2-1 after two periods on goals from Reid Simmonds and Seb Lloyd. Jonaf Renouf replied on the power-play for the Eagles, with Matthew Dawson and Braeden Russell picking up assists. In the third period, trailing 3-1, Heinen scored twice and Luke Sandler scored the winning goal with less than five minutes left, allowing the visitors to escape with two points. The 1-1 road trip left the Eagles in fourth place in the Mainland Division, but they’re now 16 points shy of the first-place Langley Rivermen, and seven back of the third-place Coquitlam Express. Only the lowly Chilliwack Chiefs, with a record of 7-22-1-2, are below them. “We just can’t seem to put a streak together,” Schaefer said. “It was a tough road trip against two really good teams, so it’s good that we were able to come back and get the one win, but we still have a
lot of things we need to address.” Not the least of which is the team’s play in their own end. The Eagles have given up more goals than all but two other teams in the 16-team BCHL, and they’re hardly outscoring their problems – their minus-23 goal differential also puts them near the bottom of the league. Schaefer has said for the last few weeks he’d “definitely” like to address his team’s defensive deficiencies through a trade, but that “there’s not a lot going on out there right now, but we’re still trying to improve.” The Canadian Junior ‘A’ Hockey League trade deadline is Jan. 10. With their short Okanagan road trip complete, the Eagles will now stick around the Lower Mainland for the rest of the month. On Friday, they’ll head to the Langley Events Centre for a date with the first-place Rivermen, and then return to South Surrey for a game Saturday with the Nanaimo Clippers and Sunday against Coquitlam.
