98 queue to speak on proposed eight-storey expansion in White Rock

Two days of hearings over care home Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

A proposed complex-care facility that has had neighbours up in arms for months can be moved slightly from the footprint that was first proposed – but the change will hurt, proponents say. “It’s definitely a hardship,” architect Mark Ankenman told White Rock council Monday of the approximate 17-foot shift to the

northeast, at the start of what turned into a two-day public hearing on the project. “It’s over $200,000 of added construction costs.” Ankenman is in charge of the project, which is eyed for the Evergreen Baptist Care Home campus at 1550 Oxford St. If approved, the eight-storey, 199-unit, L-shaped facility will replace 107 existing beds and include 92 new ones that were awarded to Evergreen by Fraser Health last fall.

Its planned proximity to the 12-storey Belaire complex – located immediately north of the proposed tower – has been repeatedly cited by its residents as being among many concerns. Many of those residents were among more than 100 people who turned out to White Rock Community Centre Monday evening for the public’s first official opportunity to voice opinions on the project. After 3½ hours and 56 speakers, the hear-

ing was adjourned until Tuesday evening, when it continued for another three hours at city hall. In all, 98 people spoke, either in person or by a designate. In addition to proximity concerns, those who spoke against the project cited its impact to views and natural light, the loss of 22 mature trees (which council heard would be reduced to 16 should the shifted plan be i see page 3

Barinder Rasode ‘astonished’

Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts has reorganized the city’s police committee and removed Coun. Barinder Rasode from the chair until changes are made. Rasode said she was in the throes of making changes when she found out Watts was taking her place, and was “absolutely astonished” Monday when she found out. Watts and Rasode – both members of Surrey First – have had public differences in

recent months, but Watts told Black Press the shuffling had nothing to do with those. “It’s just an interim measure,” Watts said. “There’s some restructuring going on.” The mayor said she is reorganizing so council will be better informed about what’s taking place, and that she’ll hand the chair back to Rasode when that work is done. “There’s a lot of great work Councillor Rasode and her team have done over the years,” Watts said. “And that’s not to take anything away.”

if he missed four consecutive council meetings. Rather than be pushed, he jumped. On Monday, he tearfully told the city he was resigning. “I was fine until I was actually saying it, and then you get a little emotional, because it has been just over 23 years,” Hunt told Black Press. “It’s been a phenomenal experience, it’s been awesome to serve the citizens of Surrey on Surrey council.” The mayor and council jokingly said they would not accept his resignation, noting his would be big shoes to fill. i see page 4

concern Surrey residents, such as transit, crime and public safety. Most other radio stations, whether news-oriented or music-based, consider Surrey as just another part of the “Vancouver” market and do little to try to understand the nuances that make this city in any way different. At one time, Langley was home to radio station CJJC, which appealed to Surrey as well as Langley residents. However, it hasn’t operated for more than 20 years. Having a broadcaster based in your city is a sign of maturity and recognition. In the Metro Toronto area, radio stations have been based in communities like Oakville for decades. It doesn’t seem to happen here. Hopefully, the CRTC will take some of these factors into consideration as it considers whether to grant a licence to a Surrey-based broadcaster. In terms of unique characteristics, Surrey offers a large South Asian population, people from many other nationalities, a very young audience (more people under 18 than anywhere else in Metro Vancouver), a growing business community, some urban challenges which could be used as creative opportunities for change, and a tremendous future potential. It sounds like a recipe for a creative broadcasting company to take advantage of. Frank Bucholtz writes Thursdays for the Peace Arch News. He is the editor of the Langley Times.

Intervenor status requested by cities over proposed Kinder Morgan expansion

Surrey, White Rock want say on pipeline Kevin Diakiw Black Press

Surrey and White Rock are applying for intervenor status in the upcoming hearings on the Kinder Morgan Trans Mountain pipeline expansion project. The $5.4-billion project would nearly triple the capacity of the existing Trans Mountain pipeline to 890,000 barrels per day. That would mean a seven-fold increase in shipments through Burrard Inlet, to about 400

oil tankers a year. Surrey council voted Monday – and White Rock council followed suit Tuesday – to proceed with an application as intervenor, which would give the cities the most involved level of participation in the National Energy Board (NEB) hearing process. Surrey staff recently met with a property owner about the information supplied to him by Kinder Morgan (KM). That information indicates a variation in the alignment

of the planned pipeline than the one earlier discussed with Surrey staff. “The alignment of the pipeline is of importance to the city, and since it appears that KM is continuing to vary the alignment, it is considered important for the city to participate in the NEB process,” a staff report to council states. In supporting a motion by Coun. Helen Fathers for White Rock to apply as an intervenor, Mayor Wayne Baldwin said it “doesn’t

hurt,” but added if Metro Vancouver is doing the same on behalf of the region, it would make more sense to endorse that. “If they do it, no point in us trying to duplicate what they do,” he said. White Rock council voted unanimously (with Couns. Louise Hutchinson, Al Campbell and Bill Lawrence absent) to proceed. The deadline to register for intervenor status is Feb. 12. To apply online, go to www. neb-one.gc.ca

If there’s a solution bouncing out there that I don’t know about, I would be very surprised.” Belaire resident Barry Miller challenged council to consider how they would feel “if your home was one of those affected…” Gail Smith said she is not against having complex-care facilities in the community, but is opposed to “development projects that are pushed and rushed through the approval process without much scrutiny.” Several opponents said they disagreed with amending the city’s bylaw to facilitate the project. However, proponents – including former White Rock councillor Lynne Sinclair – noted the Belaire also required concessions. “The precedent was set on this property a long time ago,” Sinclair writes in a letter presented by a designate. Former Surrey councillor Judy Higginbotham added her voice to those in support, as did former Fraser Health CEO Keith Anderson (the latter also by designate). City clerk Tracey Arthur said 185 submissions were received prior to the public hearing; 132 of those expressed support for the project. Three petitions were also received, with 148, 59 and 200 signatures. Just over half of those who signed were also supportive. Council next meets Feb. 24, when the proposal is expected – but not yet confirmed – to be on the agenda for consideration.

Two framers who fell from a South Surrey construction site last month – one of them suffering serious injuries – were not using fall-protection equipment, as required by WorkSafeBC. The information is confirmed in an inspection report issued to Surrey-based Double SR Construction. According to the report, the workers fell from the third storey of a townhouse near 160 Street and 32 Avenue Jan. 28 after a truss broke, causing one to stumble. The second worker fell 30 feet when he tried to grab and stabilize the first worker. Neither was wearing personal fall-protection – although a fallrestraint system for one was seen nearby during the inspection that day – nor had they been trained in the equipment, the report states. The report orders the employer to address the lack of training and fall-protection equipment “without further delay,” and to ensure a site-specific fall-protection plan is in place prior to working at elevations where a fall of 25 feet of more is possible. An update on the workers’ condition was not available at press time. – Tracy Holmes

Robber on run Police are searching for a man who held up a South Surrey bank Tuesday morning. A man wearing a navy ski mask and bandana produced a weapon while robbing the Royal Bank of Canada in Morgan Crossing in the 15700-block of Croydon Drive at 9:30 a.m., according to Mounties. Police would not specify what weapon was used. No one was injured. The man left with an undisclosed amount of money, and the bank was closed for part of the day, with broken glass from a shattered door littering the entrance. It is not known if the man fled on foot or in a vehicle. The suspect is described as a white male in his late 20s, fivefoot-10 with a slim build and wearing blue jeans, grey runners and gloves.

‘No quick fix’ for crime, transport i from page 1 Last month, the BC NDP criticized BC Liberals – including Hunt – whom they accused of “double-dipping� by serving two elected offices. A week earlier, NDP MLA Bruce Ralston (Surrey-Whalley) had called for Hunt to resign both offices, criticizing Hunt’s lack of public statement following December’s unsolved murder of hockey mom Julie Paskall in Newton. Hunt disagreed, expressing concern for politicizing tragedies and maintaining that he would do both jobs until the November civic election. Hunt said Wednesday his greatest accomplishment on Surrey council has been problem solving for the city’s residents. “To me, the classic has been knowing when we can change something, and when we know, no, that’s a brick wall,� he said. “It’s been that kind of stuff, being able to help people and educate them in how the system works.� His toughest decisions have stemmed from great public conflicts that arise in the city. “Things, like for example, dealing with casinos,� Hunt said, noting on one side, there’s an important revenue source for people who really need it. “On the other hand, you know the agony of people that are caught in the addictions to that.� The city council veteran said

MLA – and former councillor – Marvin Hunt leaves his civic office. he will miss representing Surrey in its entirety, but noted he will still be here looking out for the people of Panorama Ridge. He leaves knowing there are issues ahead for the city. “The big challenges are, of course, all big-city challenges that now come with the turf,â€? Hunt said. “That is the constant challenge of crime, the constant challenges of transportation‌â€? Neither has a fast fix, he said. “You want to be focusing on the long term, the next generation, so we can break the cycles that some generations get

themselves into,� he said. Because Hunt is stepping down in the same calendar year as a civic election, a byelection is not required. As for the work to come representing Surrey-Panorama, he said his first order of business is understanding the nuances of the decision process. “We’ve got lots of things that need to be done here in Surrey – we need answers, we need solutions – and I need to find out how to plug Surrey into the decision-making process so we can get things done for Surrey.�

Senior driver did not have valid licence, insurance

Vehicle ‘bounced’ off curb Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

Police and firefighters were called to a South Surrey parking lot Monday, after a senior lost control of her car and became trapped when it rolled. Witness Tony Roy said he called 911 around 3:45 p.m. Feb. 3 after a Volkswagen Jetta bounced off a curb in the 1600-block of Martin Drive and rolled onto its passenger side. It came to rest between two SUVs, on an area marked for pedestrian passage. “I was cutting hair and then, boom. I looked out and I could see this car… tumbling over,” Roy said.

Roy said the driver, who was wearing a seatbelt, was trapped inside and still pushing the gas pedal when he emerged from the barber shop he manages to try and help. “The wheels were spinning like crazy. I had to go all the way around through the bushes… to let her know help was coming,” he said. Roy said passersby who tried to help – including one who climbed onto the up-ended car – were unable to lift the door open, and that efforts by the senior to lower the window were also unsuccessful. She appeared to be in shock, he

added. Surrey firefighters pulled the woman out – she was treated at the scene and released – and helped locate a dog that had apparently fled the vehicle in the chaos. Surrey RCMP Cpl. Bert Paquet said investigation determined the crash occurred when the 88-yearold Surrey driver inadvertently hit the gas pedal instead of the brake. Fortunately, no one was injured. Paquet noted the driver did not have a valid licence, and that the vehicle’s insurance expired last month. The Jetta was impounded and a driving prohibition issued, he said.

Dangers all around

I

t’s likely tempting for opponents of the rail line at White Rock’s beach to seize on the latest calamity – in which a wandering senior was struck by a freight train on Saturday night, thankfully without life-threatening injuries – as yet another reason to move the tracks inland. If the train were not there, the argument goes, the individual could not have been hit by it. Having a rail route run through such a populous area as White Rock and South Surrey, opponents have long declared, is a series of such accidents just waiting to happen. However, it’s worth remembering that in this particular incident – in which the senior in question, categorized as requiring the lowest level of care but reportedly suffering from dementia, apparently wandered away from Evergreen Baptist care home – the individual’s situation was more likely the “accident waiting to happen.” While the man’s route from the care home to the train tracks at the foot of Oxford Street may never be known, it was likely one fraught with perils. The biggest would have been the steep hill itself, which is often as challenging to walk down as it is to walk up. How the individual got to the base without stumbling or falling in the dark is anyone’s guess, and, indeed, leads to some speculation that he took a more oblique route to the beach, which, even without the train, poses many potential dangers and pitfalls for those not acutely aware of their surroundings. But whenever a resident goes missing at a care home it is always cause for alarm. Anyone can imagine the possible scenarios for a confused or disoriented senior walking outside in the dark, and few of them have a happy ending. Wandering into traffic, tripping over a rock or a curb, falling into a ditch – these are all possibilities that flash through the minds of family members, police and others who join in search efforts whenever such a case is reported. That this individual arrived at the waterfront, only to be struck by a train, is more a matter of chance than anything. That he sustained only several broken ribs and a few abrasions after coming into contact with the train is little short of miraculous. And, we must wonder, what would have been his fate had he not been stopped at the tracks? Rather than making political hay of this incident in the continuing debate over moving the rails, perhaps our energies would be better spent in being grateful that the result, while bad enough, was not tragic.

from a focus on primary care through family physicians to a greater emphasis on specialists and acute care. Med-school teachers today are usually specialists, and students tend to gravitate the same way, Sanghera says. And with the costs of training rising, students seek areas with better earning potential (read: specialization) to pay hefty student loans. Though family practice often pays less, the training costs the same. But if the A GP for Me initiative succeeds, everyone wins, Sanghera says. “We’re all coming to the same realization that things can’t continue the way they have. The only way to reduce the cost of health care is to keep people healthy – and there’s lots of things we can do to help people achieve that.” Sanghera says they plan to release the full results of their consultations in June. The goal is to recommend workable solutions that provide lasting results. “We want to align all the information we get and come up with a full, comprehensive plan.” Ironically, despite my frustration with long waits at my doctor’s office, Sanghera noted he stopped delivering babies 10 years ago due to the stress of running his office simultaneously, and said my doctor is going above and beyond. “She’s one of our heroes – she’s trying to do all she can. The rest of the people can wait, the baby won’t.” And he says the best way to improve my satisfaction is to improve her work life. “The system needs to provide her more support, and more physicians.” Chris Bryan is the editor of the BurnabyNew Westminster NewsLeader, sister paper to the Peace Arch News.

Peace Arch News

Lack of support for our heroes An open letter to MP Russ Hiebert. Your government’s treatment of current members and retired veterans of our armed forces is inexcusable. Not enough is being done to help soldiers who are physically and mentally injured while in service; they often end up with long-term disabilities or struggle with posttraumatic stress disorder. However, instead of helping them, your government is making decisions that make lives more difficult. The recent closing of eight local offices of Veterans Affairs across Canada illustrates this lack of compassion. These unsung heroes relied on these offices to get personal support when they could not access it themselves. They will now have to access Service Canada to get help, which is simply not a solution. Even worse, some of these veterans, who are very close to getting their pensions after 10 years of service, are being discharged from the service so they do not qualify for their pensions. Meanwhile, MPs – including you, Mr. Hiebert – will receive a handsome pension after six years of service, starting at the age of 55. The average annual pension in 2011-2012 for MPs was $58,051. This attitude towards veterans makes it hard for me to believe that you and your party sincerely care about the well-being of others, in particular those who have served this country and put their lives on the line. Recent polls clearly show the vast majority of Canadians feel that we have a moral duty to ensure those who have served us live a dignified life post-service, which includes access to assistance when required. It is time for the Conservatives to start reflecting the values and morals of Canadian citizens. Pamela Lockhart, White Rock

Not fun for all ages Editor: Re: No place to ban children, Jan. 9 letters. Letter-writer Julie Lornie seems to believe that children should be allowed everywhere. Really? How about adult movies, finedining restaurants, anywhere smoking is tolerated, bars, taverns, cabarets, casinos, adult parties, homes that have not been childproofed, boxing matches, strip clubs, any place that has live music, comedy clubs, live theatre, white-water rafting, bungee jumping, car races, demolition and construction sites, adult areas of libraries, hospitals (when they are not patients themselves), most workplaces, higher-end retail stores, air traffic control towers, swingers’ clubs, bathhouses, S&M clubs, heavy-metal concerts, biker rallies, tattoo parlors, art museums, firing

ranges, mechanics’ garages, auction houses, antique shops, raves… Need I name more? Basically, apart from the home and specifically child-oriented businesses or venues, it’s hard to imagine any place where children would not be potentially disruptive – even a danger. And why are some people so concerned about low birth rates? This planet would be a lot more liveable and its dwindling resources more sustainable with a much smaller human population. Jerry Steinberg, Surrey

More than a health concern Editor: Re: Clearing up coal issues, Jan. 28. I read with interest the letter from 85-year-old R. Morton in support of the transport of coal through our community. I would like to congratulate him

on his physical and mental health in spite of the seven years he spent working in a coal facility as a youth. Nevertheless, his anecdotal evidence hardly adds to the discussion. My father smoked two packs of cigarettes for decades and never showed any signs of cancer during his lifetime, but I would be a fool to draw the conclusion that smoking is not a serious health issue. As Wendy Wulff and Margie Ostroff note in their letters, we are talking about thermal coal from the U.S. being moved through the Lower Mainland en route to Asia. There will be no significant economic benefits to B.C., in much the same way there will be extremely limited benefits to B.C. and significant environmental risks from the Northern Gateway pipeline. Why should we accept the transport of this coal through our region when the Americans themselves will not? Why should we accept the transport of bitumen through our province when the benefits are so few and the risks are so high? Bill Stewart, Surrey

quote

Silent safety on the track Editor: Re: Silencing train whistles to cost $1.8m, Jan. 28. Just a layman proposal: Have a lead vehicle, purpose-built and light, running at some safe distance ahead of the train while passing through residential areas. Should any danger lie ahead, the operator on the lead vehicle would alert the train operator to slow down or prepare to stop the train. The lead vehicle may need to have rubber wheels capable of bringing itself to a complete stop over short distance in case of an emergency. And the minimum lead distance would be the braking distance of the train plus a safety margin. When not in use, the lead vehicle would be attached to the front of the locomotive. With this measure, whistle blowing can be done away with. Fen Kong Liew, Surrey

Dragging students out of bed before sunrise does little to promote learning, suggests letter-writer Jennifer Findlay.

Early to rise not necessarily wise Editor: Every morning, I tiptoe in to my teenagers’ bedrooms and rouse them from their deep sleep so they can get to school on time. I always feel so bad having to drag them out of their warm beds while it’s still dark out. Why must school start so early? Why can’t children – who studies have shown would benefit from more sleep – just sleep a little longer in the morning? Wouldn’t it make sense to start the school day just one hour later? Say 9:40 a.m., instead of 8:40? Studies have shown that marks and productivity would go up significantly if our kids started their “work day” later, and ended it later. It makes sense, given their requirements for more sleep. I challenge the powers-that-be to seriously consider this idea. Supposedly they’re studying the option of year-round school. Why not look at changing the actual school hours? I know that people will rise to this question with every possible argument against it: What about parents who

have to get to work in the morning? What about afterschool activities? What about the teaching staff? What if we ask the kids themselves – at 6:45 a.m.? I suspect I know what most teenagers will say. “I just need to sleep a little longer. Can I just miss my first class?” I don’t share the opinion that we need to “toughen up” our kids for the “real world.” Soon enough, they’ll have to rise on their own with the alarm clock to get to work on time. Why not give them an opportunity for proper rest, while it’s possible and when they need it the most? I’m suggesting there are ways to adapt to something new. The kids will happily adapt to more sleep. Caretakers can arrive in the morning, instead of the afternoon. Afternoon activities can adjust their schedules. Teachers are adaptable, too. They manage quite well in schools where there are two shifts. In fact, I’m certain that teachers would love to see more alert children in classrooms. Imagine the possibilities. Happier kids, healthier kids, more engaged kids, better grades. Just a thought. Jennifer Findlay, Surrey

Josh Boden’s convictions for assault, obstructing a police officer to stand

Former Lion, Ram loses obstruction appeal Sheila Reynolds Black Press

Former BC Lion Josh Boden’s convictions for assaulting and obstructing a police officer after grabbing a woman’s buttocks will stand. Boden – who played for the South Surrey Rams before he went pro – lost his appeal of the convictions late last year but the written B.C. Supreme Court ruling

was just released last week. Vancouver Police had Boden under surveillance in September 2009 because he was a suspect in several sexual assaults in the downtown Vancouver ares. An undercover officer saw Boden approach a woman from behind and grab her rear end. Josh Boden After the incident, when a constable and police dog approached him to arrest him,

AN EVENING OF ADVENTURE TRAVEL FOR EVERYONE!

Boden tried to run. A lengthy physical struggle – which included the dog – ensued. Boden suffered 20 bites, but not before fighting with and striking two police officers, and shouting “What did I do? What did I do?” It took five officers to eventually control Boden. In December 2011, he was found guilty of two counts of sexual assault, as well as assault of a police officer and obstructing a police officer. He appealed the latter two charges

on the grounds that police didn’t state the reasons for his arrest, which entitled him to resist as he did. In his ruling, Associate Chief Justice Austin Cullen said the convictions should stand. “In the particular circumstances of this case the appellant was advised ‘promptly’ of the reasons for his arrest,” wrote Cullen. “It follows that I dismiss the appeal.” Boden, a backup wide receiver, made the Lions CFL team in 2007,

but was released after being charged with domestic assault and robbery in 2008. Though the charges were dropped, the Lions did not re-sign him. Boden was picked up by the Hamilton Tiger-Cats but cut after a single game. He had played for the Canadian Junior Football League’s South Surrey Rams (now the Langley Rams), earning a slew of awards that earned him an invitation to the BC Lions training camp in 2005.

Jewelry designer takes The Big Leap Sarah Massah Staff Reporter

When Adrienne Hubbard saw the green race car she was going to get into drive towards her at the Charlotte Motor Speedway in North Carolina last month, one of her first feelings was of relief that she wouldn’t have to ride a rollercoaster. The next was sticking to the business pitch for her jewelry company while travelling at speeds of 125 mph with NASCAR’s Danica Patrick at the wheel. The 28-year-old Elgin Park Secondary grad had three laps to convince Patrick why she should win six month’s salary from Internet-domain registrar and

web-hosting company GoDaddy in order to quit her current job and focus on growing her small business. “GoDaddy is a crazy company. We didn’t even know we were going to Carolina,” Hubbard told Peace Arch News from her home in Everson, Wash. Tuesday. “In the interviews, they asked ‘how do you feel about roller-coasters?’ because they wanted to make sure we would get into the car and go. “Roller-coasters are my biggest fear in life. I would never, ever go on one. But of course I didn’t tell them that. So when I saw the car, I thought ‘at least it’s not a rollercoaster.’ Once she was strapped into the car, her time began. A video in the

race car captured Hubbard’s pitch The perfect opportunity came for her jewelry company, Crafty when Hubbard was approached by Little Gnome, which she started casting agents in November after up five years ago while searching they had viewed her blog. Shortly for the perfect after, she was entered piece of jewelry ❝The Internet brings us into GoDaddy’s The for her wedding all a lot closer together. Big Leap contest. day.

Now, Hubbard and her family – who still reside in Ocean Park and Vancouver – are working on getting people to vote before the winner is announced on March 2 in Phoenix. Hubbard noted the exposure has already seen increased traffic to her blog www.craftylittlegnome. com “The Internet brings us all a lot closer together. There are so many opportunities out there,” Hubbard said. “I just try to say ‘yes’ to whatever comes my way, and a lot of cool things have happened.” Contestant pitches can be viewed online at www.godaddy.com by following the prompts for The Big Leap.

ife gets busy sometimes and spending time with loved ones can become difficult. Family Day, taking place Feb. 10, is the perfect reason to gather the family and take in some of British Columbia’s best attractions. Start with Big White Ski Resort, just outside of Kelowna. “There’s something for everyone here,” says Katie Balkwill, regional sales manager for Big White Ski Resort. “We’re Canada’s largest ski-in ski-out resort. Anywhere you wake up, you’ll be on the slopes, and the quality of our snow is amazing.” Black Press readers can enter to win a weekend for four (two adults and two children under 18) at Big White Ski Resort, ights with lift passes and two nights side accommodation in a slopeside rmahotel room. For more information, visit your local Black Press n paper’s website and click on the contests link. n Big White is about more than skiing and snowboarding though. Balkwill also notes that they have an ice-climbingg tower, fireworks every Saturday night overr ny the huge outdoor skating rink and many other activities for the whole family. On Feb. 10, B.C. residents will bee able to purchase a single-day lift tickoket for 50 per cent off. If you’re lookh ing for a weekend getaway, British Columbians can book any two consecutive nights and two days of skiing, and Big White will give you the third night and third day of skiing at half-price, valid between Feb. 7 and Feb. 13. The Lower Mainland is home to plenty of family-friendly outdoor spots, including Granville Island, numerous beaches and parks. If it’s indoor fun you’re looking for, attractions such as the H.R. MacMillan Space Centre, the Museum of Vancouver, Science World at the Telus World of Science, the Vancouver Aquarium and the Vancouver Art Gallery should all be tops on your list.

Outdoor activities are also plentiful in B.C. Capilano Suspension Bridge Park is one of Vancouver’s most well-known attractions, with its famous suspension bridge, Treetops Adventure, Cliffwalk and other places to explore. The North Shore mountains all offer a variety of activities, including skiing, snowboarding, snowshoeing and tobogganing, or you can go a bit farther afield to visit Whistler Blackcomb. On B.C. Family Day, lift tickets at many participating ski areas will be offered to B.C. residents at 50 per cent off. For more information and the list of participating resorts, visit www.skicanada. org. B.C. has more than 850 parks and natural areas to hike in, including Vancouver Island’s West Coast Trail.

o the uninitiated, the word opera might conjure images of larger-thanlife people with long braids and horned hats on their heads, singing complicated music they can’t understand. Vancouver Opera (VO) is well-aware of the stereotype. And the company would like to quash the inaccurate image. “Almost everyone who hasn’t seen opera have a pre-conceived notion about it,” says Doug Tuck, director of marketing for Vancouver Opera. “I think that people feel it’s unapproachable, requires a lot of knowledge to enjoy it, and is expensive. “What we’re trying to do is show them that it doesn’t take a lot to appreciate opera and the singing is beautiful.” This Saturday, Surrey and White Rock residents will have the chance to experience opera just minutes from home, as Vancouver Opera presents Opera’s Greatest Hits – and

More at Surrey Arts Centre, 13750 88 Ave. For 40 years, singers from the VO have toured Surrey schools, bringing adaptations of traditional operas to gymnasiums around the city or presenting commissioned, educational musical productions to students. “We haven’t really brought our adult programming to Surrey,” says Tuck. “And with Surrey being the burgeoning cultural centre that it’s becoming, we’re very excited to come and be there.” As of late last week, more than 200 people had bought tickets for the Surrey show, leaving just half the theatre’s seats up for grabs. Tuck said though a significant proportion of the Lower Mainland’s population lives in Surrey, few residents – roughly 10 per cent of the audience – venture to see a VO show. “So we’re coming out to them and we’re hoping to entice them downtown with a little sample, especially for those people who aren’t familiar with the art form.” The company is also looking to expand its

outreach, planning more future productions south of the Fraser. Currently in the works is a new opera called Stickboy, based on a novel by spoken word poet Shane Koyczan. The VO plans to produce it on the main Queen Elizabeth Theatre stage in November and then take it on the road to other venues, including those in Surrey. The all-ages concert this Saturday will feature a selection of songs to give audiences a taste of opera’s greatest areas and ensembles – some of them well-known, such as the solo from the Barber of Seville with its familiar “Figaro! Figaro! Figaro!” refrain. There will also be pieces from Carmen, The Pearl Fishers and more. “It should be widely appealing to people who’ve never heard opera before… and for those who have heard it, there will be some surprises, and the chance to hear it again,” Tuck says. Though performers are part of the VO’s i see page 24

Everyone – well, any adult, anyways – has been there, to some extent. Life progresses and changes. And questions arise about whether this is what life was meant to be. What have I done so far? What will be next? Is it enough? Am I happy? Surrey Little Theatre’s latest comedy, Becky’s New Car (running until Feb. 22), tackles all of these highly relatable themes, taking the audience on one woman’s journey as she veers off the road she views as her mundane reality. “It’s a good story about what a woman can go through when faced with her humdrum life,” says director Marko Hohlbein, fresh off Langley Players’ production of That Darn Plot last fall. When a grief-stricken millionaire wanders into the car dealership where Becky works, she’s lured by a chance that a new life offers. “It’s about all the stuff that goes on in our lives and what keeps us steady and going and, you know, keeps the rudder in the water,” Hohlbein adds. “And then all of a sudden, somebody presents us with an opportunity for a little excitement, a little something different and we take that little tiny step and the next thing, we’re drawn right into it.” For Becky, the chance at a new life sends her, rather unintentionally, into a complicated double life. Playing the protagonist is South Surrey’s Robyn Bradley, who won a best actress award for SLT’s 2012 production of Mending Fences. She’s confident the plot will strike a chord with pretty much anyone. “I think that maybe people don’t actually act in the way that she (Becky) acted, but I think people are often presented with those kinds of choices in life. Everyone can relate to what she’s going through at some point in their life.” The comedy was what drew Bradley to the role, but the attraction to the lead part wasn’t immediate. “I actually read the script and it starts with about a six-page monologue. I looked at the monologue – I didn’t i see page 26

i from page 23 Yulanda M. Faris Young Artists Program, all of the performers are in their 20s, and are broadly trained, highly experienced performers and singers. Singers include soprano Sheila Christie, mezzosoprano Kristin Hoff, tenor Rocco Rupolo, baritone Aaron Durand, alongside pianist Kimberley-Ann Bartczak and directed by Fanny GilbertCollet. “These are people who audition from across Canada to get into our program,” says Tuck. “They’re all on their way to having careers.” It’s hoped the show will be the first of many. “We’re just sort of dipping our toes into the Surrey waters, as it were,” Tuck says. “We’re tip-toeing across the Fraser and establishing relationships with people there and bringing what we have to offer out to the already vibrant place that Surrey is.” Every ticket holder for Opera’s Greatest Hits – and More will also receive $20 “opera bucks” to be used toward purchasing a ticket to a VO production at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre this season – and anyone using their opera bucks for a show can also get a free day pass on TransLink to travel to Vancouver. Tickets ($20, $10 for children 18 and under and seniors) are available at tickets. surrey.ca or by calling 604-501-5566.

I’m folding my cards right there’,� she giggles. “Then the actor in me started to see how it would start to formulate and how I would do it.� Presenting a unique challenge for the actress is the interactive aspect of the play. Theatre’s so-called fourth wall is broken down by Becky within the first two minutes, inviting the audience to partake in the action. The prospect is both thrilling and terrifying for Bradley, who has no prior improvisational experience under her theatrical belt. Her tactic: “Try to stay loose and relaxed and let go of fear. When you’re loose and relaxed, it creates freedom and space. “In theory it’s great, eh?� she laughs. “I’m in the airplane right now about to skydive.� Hohlbein says while the uncertainty can be daunting

Also noteworthy is the challenge of staging a story that takes place in four separate locations. Hohlbein says the effect is achieved mostly

through lighting, which helps demonstrate the feverish tempo inherent in juggling two existences. “Poor Becky in the second act has to be in three different places at the same time,â€? says the director. “It shows the frenetic pace it takes to live that dual life.â€? That leaves Bradley running, literally, from scene to scene, attempting to keep pace with her character’s various conversations. “It’s what the playwright intended,â€? she says. “Her life’s unravelling and she’s not able to keep up with the facade.

Thunder blast off for Vegas Nick Greenizan Sports Reporter

Nick Greenizan Sports Reporter

The winner of last week’s 2014 U13 Canadian Accredited Independent Schools Boys Basketball Tournament was never really in doubt. On Saturday at Southridge School – host site of the national Grade 7 tournament – Vancouver’s St. George’s Saints cruised to a 33-23 victory over Upper Canada College (Toronto) in the event’s ❝They have championship game. size, and skill. The game was not as They’re just close as the score would appear, either, as the very, very Torontonians narrowed good.❞ the gap once St. George’s James Porpaczy took its starting lineup Southridge out of the game with a substantial lead. The Saints – who also won it all in 2013, and have 12 titles since 1993 – never lost throughout the three-day tournament. “It was no surprise. They were No. 1 coming in, and they have size, and skill. They’re just very, very good,’ said Southridge athletic director James Porpaczy, one of the tournament’s organizers alongside Kirby Gallant. Southridge, meanwhile, accomplished its goal of finishing among the top eight in the 16-team event. “We went 3-0 to start, and… we had a shot to get to the semifinals, but we lost a couple tight games, one to Collingwood and another by one point to (Montreal’s Lower Canada College),” Porpaczy explained. Away from the court, the tournament earned rave reviews from visiting teams, Porpaczy said, as visitors were impressed with the gym’s atmosphere, which included announcers and a live band that entertained the crowd. The school also live-streamed video of the games online, which “went off without a hitch.” A parent, as well as a BCIT broadcast student, handled much of the play-by-play i see page 28

One of the South Surrey-White Rock Thunder’s youngest softball teams is getting the season off to an early start. The Thunder’s U12 team is in Las Vegas this weekend, taking part in the American Softball Association’s Las Vegas Valentine’s Day Blast tournament. And while the Thunder will be the youngest team in the Blast’s U12 division – the team has many 10- and 11-year-olds on the roster – head coach Tracey CardinalMitchell said the event serves a number of important purposes, regardless of how things go on the field. “We’re the youngest team there a first-year team, and the competition down there is ❝It’s all about amazing, but team building.❞ for us, it’s all Tracey about team Cardinal-Mitchell building, and really playing for the love of the game,” said Cardinal-Mitchell, who coaches the team alongside her husband, Dwayne Mitchell, and their 19-year-old daughter, Miranda, the latter a Thunder program alum. The U12 supermite team has been together and practising since October, Cardinal said. Through the winter months, the team primarily works on skills indoors – at a school gym – but the recent run of good weather has meant the team has been able to work outdoors at their home field, Sunnyside Park. “It’s been good. You can do so much more outdoors,” said Cardinal-Mitchell, who doesn’t have a child on the team but continues to coach after a dozen years with the Thunder i see page 30

Porpaczy has little doubt at least a few bonds were formed as a result. “A lot of them will probably still keep in touch.

Valley West has firm grasp on third place

Hawks secure playoff spot Rick Kupchuk Black Press

The Valley West Hawks have doubled their lead over the Vancouver Chiefs in a race for third place in the BC Hockey Major Midget League. The Hawks took three of four points from the Fraser Valley Thunderbirds last weekend, while the Chiefs lost a pair of games to the Vancouver Giants. Valley West, at 21-11-2 (won-losttied), is now six points clear of the fourth-place Chiefs with six games to play. It also assures the Hawks of a top-eight finish, and a position in the provincial playoffs which begin in four weeks. In an 8-3 win Saturday in Abbotsford, Valley West took an early lead and never looked back in a victory over the Thunderbirds. Paul Savage and Ty West-

the Hawks buried Fraser Valley with four more in the second. Surrey forward Matt Bradley of Surrey notched two goals, with Jordan Funk and Davis Koch adding singles. Each team tallied twice in the final 20 minutes. Mitch Newsome of Surrey and White Rock’s Matt Barberis were the Valley West goal-scorers. The Hawks scored first Sunday, a tally from Koch with five minutes remaining in the first period, but were tied 1-1 and trailing 3-1 at the period breaks. Barberis got the Hawks to within one with seven minutes to play, then Newsome tied the contest 17 seconds later to lift Valley West into a 3-3 tie. The Hawks will host the struggling Kamloops-based Thompson Blazers for two games this weekend.

Professionals ON THE SEMIAHMOO PENINSULA

Macular Degeneration There are two types of AMD: dry and wet. The dry form is the more common, milder form. The change in vision develops slowly over time. The wet form accounts for approximately 10% of all AMD. It is a sudden leakage of weak blood vessels at the macula causing vision changes to progress rapidly. Dry AMD can progress to wet AMD.

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) affects the area of the eye that is responsible for detailed central vision. Macular degeneration causes a blur or distortion to the center of your vision making reading, driving and recognizing people’s faces to become difficult.

In the earliest stages, macular degeneration can be symptom free and only detected during a routine eye health and vision assessment. Early detection is important as there is currently no cure for AMD. Dry AMD is treated with lifestyle modifications like exercise, wearing sunglasses to reduce UV damage and stopping smoking. Many cases of wet AMD can be treated with injections of anti-VEGF therapy into the eye to stop leaking blood vessels. Ocular vitamin supplements including lutein and zeaxanthin can assist in slowing the progression of AMD. Lifelong UV prevention and good nutrition play key roles in prevention

of AMD. Living a healthy lifestyle by keeping your blood pressure down, reducing your intake of fatty foods and not smoking are all recommended. A diet high in antioxidants such as those found in fruits and leafy vegetables are recommended. Regular eye health and vision assessments are recommended every 2 years for ages 40 to 64 and then yearly for over age 65. Dr. Melanie Sherk, Dr. Cindy Anderson, Dr. Tracy Ertel, Dr. Tracey Curry, Dr. Sally Donaldson and Dr Natasha Grewal are all Doctors of Optometry. We provide a comprehensive vision and eye health exam. We have been looking after the vision and eye health care of the Semiahmoo Peninsula over 30 years.

Broken record South Surrey runner Luc Bruchet has another accolade to add to his ever-growing list. The Elgin Park grad, who is in his senior year competing for UBC, set a new school record in the men’s 3,000 at the University of Washington Indoor Preview meet last

month. Bruchet ran a blistering time of seven minutes, 54.57 seconds, breaking an 18-year-old school record by five seconds. His time also set a new meet record. In December, Bruchet won a national men’s cross-country title.

Registration open i from page 27 association. Though they aren’t new to the sport – with the exception of one player, who is in her first year playing softball – CardinalMitchell’s crew is still new to rep-level ball, so the more experience they can get early in the season, the better, the coach said. And to say the girls were excited leading up to the trip is an understatement, she added.

“The girls have been counting the sleeps at every practice,” Cardinal-Mitchell said last week. And while the U12 rep squad may be set for the coming season, the Thunder organization is still accepting registration for houseleague play, which begins in late March. House-league player evaluations – for players aged 5-14 are set for Feb. 14. For more information, visit www.sswrmsa.ca

ARIES

LIBRA

Aries, you are inspired to take on the world, but you may want to focus on smaller goals this week. Finishing a long-lingering work project is a viable option.

Libra, a friend may shock you by doing something really outrageous. You do not know what to make of this change in personality, but do your best to take it in stride.

TAURUS Taurus, something does not seem to be falling into place. Take stock of things at home and at work to see if you can crack this nut. A little more investigation many be necessary.

GEMINI You may be offered a professional opportunity this week that is too good to pass up, Gemini. Despite this great offer, do your best to stay focused on work for the next several days.

SCORPIO Scorpio, work figures to put a lot on your plate in the coming week. You can handle everything that comes your way, so long as you keep your cool and continue to work hard.

SAGITTARIUS You may be tempted to sneak off and play hooky from work, Sagittarius. Just make sure you handle all of your obligations first. Now is not the best time to kick up your heels.

CANCER Exercise caution and do not jump to any conclusions at work, Cancer. While you may know what your boss expects from you, it is better to wait to hear what he or she has to say.

LEO Leo, you can envision exciting adventures ahead, and those times will be here before you know it. Channel your enthusiasm so you can get a head start on planning your adventure.

CAPRICORN Capricorn, you have so much to do now that your mind may be in a complete jumble. Others will come at you with questions, but take a deep breath and answer them one at a time.

AQUARIUS Change is not the best idea right now, Aquarius. It is much better to stick with the status quo for a little while longer. Then you will have enough stability to make a change.

VIRGO

PISCES

Virgo, you have a desire to be different from everyone else this week. It's good to be original, but don't stray too far off the beaten path or you may find yourself lost.

Pisces, you have many new ideas about how to get rich quick, but you will probably want to find more sensible ways to earn a living.

Chocolaterie Bernard Callebaut

LOVE

For chocolate lovers on the Semiahmoo Peninsula, there is no better place to indulge in tantalizing treats than Chocolaterie Bernard Callebaut®. The Peninsula Village store – with its delectable selection of mouth-watering goodies, gift ideas, baking supplies and more – has been staple for chocolate lovers in the White Rock/South Surrey community for more than 20 years. However, many fans of the chocolates may not realize Natalie - Store Manager that the tasty products they love are made with precision, care and attention right here in Canada, by a dedicated team of expert chocolate makers who have finely tuned their sweet skills over the past several decades. The magic all takes place in Downtown Calgary, at the headquarters of Cococo Chocolatiers, where the skilled team handcrafts more than 300 different products, including moulded chocolates, baking products and chocolate bars. Products are then shipped fresh to 34 Chocolaterie Bernard Callebaut locations across Canada and into the US, including right here in South Surrey. It’s all part of a deliciously well-oiled machine that was unfortunately stopped in its tracks last summer, when the headquarters was hit hard by the Calgary floods that took place in June. The damage was extensive – essential custom machinery was ruined and inventory and stock were destroyed, as staff and management waded through feet of floodwater. The team immediately got to work drying out the building and putting in countless hours of overtime rebuilding the factory. Although loyal customers may have noticed some of their favourite items have been missing from the shelves over the past several months, the company is now thrilled to announce that they’re nearly back to 100 per cent inventory – just in time for chocolate’s most popular holiday. With Valentine’s Day just over a week away, you’ll want to stop in to Chocolaterie Bernard Callebaut at Peninsula Village to pick up some sweet treats for that special someone. Back by popular demand are their filled Chocolate Hearts, made entirely by hand, and available in dark or milk, filled with an assortment of individual chocolates. Also available during Valentine’s season only are three special cream-filled hearts – dark passionfruit fresh cream, milk raspberry fresh cream and white marionberry fresh cream. The store also has a great selection of goodies perfect for kids – lollipop hearts, moulded animals, alphabet letters – and because their chocolates are made with all-natural ingredients and no artificial preservatives, you can rest assured the little ones are getting the very best tasty treats out there. Come visit the friendly staff at the Peninsula Village Chocolaterie Bernard Callebaut and rediscover what makes their chocolates world famous.

Do you have unwanted hair? Get rid of it for good. Guaranteed.

Jade Electrolysis

210-5577-153A St., Surrey

If you’ve ever struggled with unwanted hair, you know the feeling of self-consciousness and hassle brought on by dealing with hair-removal methods. Jennifer Desloges While shaving, plucking and waxing can provide short-term solutions to unwanted hair, Jade Electrolysis provides permanent hair-removal with guaranteed results. Founded by Jennifer Desloges, who herself struggled with finding a solution to unwanted hair growth, Jade is committed to helping people feel good in their own skin, by offering safe, effective hair-removal services that are guaranteed for life. Jade uses the Desloges Method of Electrolysis, proven to be more effective than laser-hair removal, which can have the adverse effect of accelerating hair growth in some people. “We are seeing more and more people come to us with bigger problems, and it’s because they’ve had laser-hair removal,” explained Jennifer. Clients are often thrilled with the speed at which their hair-removal goals are achieved, and the services at Jade often end up being cheaper than the competition, as the trained technicians can complete a treatment area more quickly. And because Jade works with a company that funds cosmetic treatments, financing is available for those concerned with being able to afford their services. If you’re ready to take the first step towards permanent hair removal that is guaranteed for life, give Jade a call today at 604-694-1332 or visit www. hairfreeforlife.com, and find out more about this safe, permanent solution. “We get the job done,” said Jennifer. “We deliver on our promise of permanent, for life hair removal.”

New Beauty Institute With a team of dedicated staff and a commitment to helping Peninsula residents look and feel their best with the latest revolutionary beauty treatments, it’s no wonder New Beauty Institute was recently recognized by the local business community. Just a few months after celebrating 10 years in business, owner Caree Ludwar and her team at New Beauty Institute were recently presented the Business Excellence Award for the category of one to seven employees; an honour presented by the South Surrey/White Rock Chamber of Commerce. Caree Ludwar Caree is thrilled to have received such a recognition from the local business community, and wishes to thank all of her loyal clients, old and new, for their support over the past 10 years. As a cutting-edge facility offering innovative anti-aging care, New Beauty Institute strives to research the best, highly-proven tools, techniques and treatments in today’s beauty and healthcare industry. One such treatment, recently named The Best Body Treatment by a leading national beauty magazine is CoolSculpting, a revolutionary body-contouring treatment that precisely targets stubborn fat. CoolSculpting utilizes a precisely controlled cooling method to target, cool and eliminate fat cells in stubborn areas – such as love handles or back fat – with no downtime. After three years of offering this amazing treatment, Caree says it is still their most highly sought-after body-contouring procedure. “The results have exceeded our expectations,” she said. Another of New Beauty’s most popular and effective age-defying treatments is Ultherapy, a non-surgical procedure that targets the muscle first, then the dermis, and then the epidermis. All 3 layers results in an immediate improvement in the youthful appearance of the face lasting for 2-4 years depending on your age. Ultherapy achieves undeniable skintightening in just one treatment, with no recovery time. Caree, the owner of New Beauty has been trained and certified in the USA, France and Canada - this is Caree’s signature treatment. This treatment provides an uplift to the chin, jowl and brow. You can start with the jowls and when clients see it working they come back to have the eyes done, erasing years from the face. Eyes are one of the most popular areas to treat and involves lifting the hooding of the eyelid which opens up the eyes. Bat wings are another popular “trouble spot” that our clients target with this treatment. We do a free evaluation of the skin, determining a treatment plan for each individual client. New Beauty will be hosting an Ultherapy Informational Evening on Thursday, Feb. 13, at their 112-1656 Martin Drive clinic, from 3 to 8 p.m., featuring free demonstrations and consultations. If you’re looking for an effective way to freshen up your complexion, New Beauty Institute is offering its popular Hydrafacial for just $99 for a limited time. This invigorating facial exfoliates, deep cleans and infuses antioxidants into the skin, leaving it feeling soft, smooth and hydrated. Call 604-541-8750 today – you’ll be happy you did!

New Beauty Institute Get your face and neck back!

Ultherapy is an innovative, non-surgical way to help reinvigorate skin that is starting to feel less firm, saggy, or too relaxed. This treatment stimulates the growth of new collagen which reduces the rate of your skin’s aging. The Ultherapy results build over the course of two to three months; it is a great way to achieve gradual,natural-looking results.

Kenkoudou Health Kenkoudou ...means Health in Japanese and that is what Hideaki Takahashi, his wife Akiko and acupuncturist Dr Linna Chen offer their clients at #2-2119 152 St. Introducing the Alpha LED Light spa: How it works: Hideaki & Akiko Takahashi ‘Even-flow’ dry heat warms up tired muscles providing complete relaxation. Zonal vibration, in combination with a heated massage bed, improves peripheral blood flow and lymphatic drainage, helping to reduce spasm of skeletal muscles and the active removal of the accumulated lactic acid. What Are The Benefits? LED light increases the penetration depth and absorption of cosmetic products to improve treatment results by up to 200 per cent! LED wavelengths have different properties, penetration depths and benefits. Thermal (heat) energy increases and stimulates the metabolism and detoxifies the skin for healthier tissue and new cell growth. Vibration energy relaxes muscles, reduces stress and relieves pain. Alpha LED Light Spa increases the effectiveness of every body and facial experience. What Treatments Are Available? • Weight Loss • Pain Relief • Skin Care • Insomnia • Detox • Energy • Balance • Relaxation And More! Hideaki Takahashi, Registered Massage Therapist (Japan) and his lovely wife, Akiko (Beam on certified) have owned and operated clinics in Tokyo for the past 25 years and are now offering to share their expertise here at Kenkoudou Health. Dr. Linna Chen, a Doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine (China) and Registered Acupuncturist (B.C.) offers consultations and treatments in acupuncture.

If you’ve had a bit of a slow start embracing your New Year’s fitness resolutions, a visit to Sandcastle Fitness is sure to motivate you to get yourself on the road to better health. And there’s no better time than now to check out Sandcastle’s latest fitness offering – Westbeach Crossfit. Described as an “amazingly effective” way to get fit – and designed for any fitness level – Crossfit is fast becoming the workout of choice for Peninsula residents Natalie looking to improve their overall health. The idea behind Crossfit is to mix a variety of aerobics, body weights, gymnastics and Olympic weight lifting with the goal of improving strength and fitness in regular, everyday movements. Workouts are typically short and intense, and focus on muscles that don’t often get targeted in regular gym fitness regimes. Each day there is a different workout targeting a different element of fitness, for an allaround balanced workout experience. “A lot of people don’t realize that Crossfit is for every fitness level,” explained Sandcastle fitness manager Natalie Dunnill. “If you have a good coach, anyone can do it.” Coaches at Sandcastle are all fully certified, with a background in personal training, and instruct classes with no more than 12 participants at a time. When taking part in a Crossfit program, participants are required to first take a oneon-one ‘Foundations’ class, which allows the coach to ensure the participant has all the movements correct before proceeding to a class setting. For a limited time, Sandcastle is including the Foundations class at no charge with enrollment in a Crossfit program. In addition to their new and exciting Crossfit program, Sandcastle also offers a number of other fitness classes, including spin, Zumba, pilates, yoga, sculpt, step, bootcamp, barre and more. The gym also features a dedicated Ladies Only workout section, offers personal training services and requires no contracts to be signed upon signing up for membership. Whether you’re looking for an effective, exciting new challenge with their Westbeach Crossfit program, or you want a laid-back, no-pressure place to embark on your fitness goals, visit Sandcastle Fitness at 1938 152 St. today to take the first step towards a healthier you.

Updates include a state-of-the-art contact lens fitting room and a revamped dispensary, where patients will enjoy a much larger frame selection, including the latest brand new styles for 2014.

Zig Zag For close to 20 years, Zig Zag Fashion Boutique has been a must-visit shopping destination on the Peninsula, offering a diverse selection of the hottest brands of clothes, footwear and accessories. These days the selection of designer fashions to be found is even better than ever as the South Surrey landmark enjoys their beautiful, large new location at South Point Exchange, next to Grasby’s and Kids Books. Kerry, Store Manager Having opened the doors last year to this new location – which is bigger, more spacious, elegantly laid out and an ideal setting for a shopping spree – the staff at Zig Zag are thrilled to be helping customers at the new store find the hottest fashions that suit them perfectly. With a dedicated Fly London section, the new Zig Zag is a sight to behold, where co-ordinated colours and styles make for an exciting and comfortable shopping experience. One thing that hasn’t changed with the new store is the wide scope of brand name merchandise that makes it one of the best places to shop in town, especially with clothing brands including Kut Jeans, Tribal, Chalet, Bryn Walker, Niki Biki, Kenneth Cole, Hue Leggings and Michael Kors. The store is also the exclusive dealer of Fly London, which helps make up their wide selection of shoe brands including Michael Kors, Kenneth Cole, Gold Button, Prophecy, Free Bird, Ann Klein, Naots, Rieker, Karston, Softinos and Bussolla. Another popular footwear brand gaining steam at Zig Zag is the line by Bernie Mev a super comfortable, upscale yet casual brand that’s perfect for the fashionminded, active woman. With signs of a new season springing up on the Peninsula, you’ll want to check out what’s new in store for Spring. Black and white is expected to be a popular look this coming season, with plenty of classy gold and metallic accents, including studded shoes and other funky accessories. Ankle boots will still dominate in footwear, and navy will be a popular choice for colour, along with slightly lighter than usual denim. If you haven’t visited the beautiful new Zig Zag location – or you want to see for yourself what’s hot in time for spring – stop by the popular shopping spot at 970-15033 32 Ave.

White Rock Players’ Club After wrapping up a successful fall, including a great run with their ever-popular Christmas Pantomime, the White Rock Players’ Club is gearing up for some great entertainment for the new year. First up is the classic Stephen Sondheim musical A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum. The play tells the story of a lazy Roman slave who attempts to arrange a marriage for his master in an Ryan Mooney effort to gain his freedom, but everything falls apart and hilarity ensues. Director Ryan Mooney describes this popular farce as “quite funny and over the top,” noting the cast of 18 actors range in age from 19 to in their 70s, and features both seasoned and novice musical performers. A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum opens Feb. 12 at Coast Capital Playhouse and runs until March 1. First up is the Ron Hutchinson comedy Moonlight & Magnolias, which details the infamous final-hour re-writing of acclaimed feature film Gone With The Wind. As the days pass, tempers flare, hunger and fatigue set in and audiences get a fun look at the behind-the-scenes creation of one of the most beloved films of all time. Moonlight & Magnolias features a cast of just four actors, and runs April 2 to 19. In time for summer on the Peninsula, the Players’ Club is presenting one of playwright Neil Simon’s most famous works, Barefoot in the Park. This romantic comedy follows the lives of a newlywed couple in the 1960s who discover upon moving in together their opposite lifestyles make for a challenging home life. Barefoot in the Park is set to open June 4 and run through June 21. In addition to these great upcoming productions, the White Rock Players’ Club is also thrilled to be hosting the Vancouver Theatre Sports League for a one-night-only performance March 15. And, on March 26, the club is hosting an afternoon Musical Theatre Cabaret, featuring five singers from around the Lower Mainland performing popular Broadway hits. Tickets for both these not-to-be-missed special events – as well as half-season subscriptions for the remaining three upcoming productions – are available through the Coast Capital Theatre box office, open Tuesday through Saturday from 1 to 5 p.m. Call 604-536-7535 or email boxoffice@whiterockplayers.ca, or visit www.whiterockplayers.ca to find out more.

Debbie Mozelle Designer Optical

FREE SALE 50-100%

For ages over nineteen and under sixty-five.

Ask about Digital Progressives with no peripheral distortion!

Celebrating more than 30 years since she first began working in the optical industry, Debbie Mozelle is thrilled to still be serving customers near and far with stylish collections of frames, the latest in progessive lens technology, sunglasses and contact lenses. She and the friendly team at Debbie Mozelle Designer Optical – with locations in White Rock and Langley – are experts at finding the right frame to suit your Debbie Mozelle style, personality and prescription and have the skill and experience necessary to meet all their customers’ optical needs. Debbie got her start in the industry in the spring of 1983, when she began working as an apprentice optician while completing her certification. She spent the next several years honing her skills at American Optical, expanding her knowledge base to include colour analysis. Her hands-on personality served her well, as she was always first in line to make repairs, solder frames, mount lenses, replace screws and deal oneon-one with customers. Debbie’s next career step took her to Pearle Vision, where she travelled from store to store as a contact lens-fitting expert. This experience provided Debbie with a great amount of insight into the managerial side of the business, and it wasn’t long before she had plans to open her own store, which she did in January 1991. Within a few years, Debbie’s commitment to great customer service and business smarts paid off, and she had opened several stores around the Lower Mainland. In recent years she has focused her time and attention on her two Fraser Valley stores, and making sure that each customer has a professional, pleasant and fun shopping experience. “We are licensed opticians, licensed contact lens fitters and licensed sight testing opticians,� Debbie says. “We have high-quality products at reasonable prices and most frame repairs are done right on the premises.� And for those who think shopping online can save them some money, Debbie points out that their prices for eyewear and contact lenses are on par with what you’d find on the Internet, but you get the added benefit of one-on-one service, frame adjustments and the opportunity to try before you buy. As a way to thank her loyal customers for years of dedication, customers who order eyewear before May 3 will be entered to win one of three trips to Mazatlan, Mexico.

Hate CPAP?

Peace Arch Dental A good night’s sleep is crucial to one’s overall physical health and wellness, and for the millions of adults who suffer from Obstructive Sleep Apnea, a solid, restful night can be a rare occurrence. Thankfully for sufferers on the Semiahmoo Peninsula, Dr. Michael Layton of Peace Arch Dental is one of the only dental sleep medicine providers Dr. Michael Layton in the Fraser Valley, offering the latest in alternative treatment options to those afflicted with sleep apnea. Comprehensively trained in Dental Sleep Medicine, and working closely with local sleep doctors, Dr. Layton offers sleep apnea patients the option of using Oral Appliances – a smaller, much less obstructive alternative to the Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) masks that many patients are forced to wear at night. Oral Appliances work by gently holding the lower jaw forward, unblocking the airway from the throat and tightening the neck muscles to prevent further obstruction. “The appliances look similar to orthodontic retainers or athletic mouth guards and are comfortable to wear when made and fitted by a trained dentist,” says Dr. Layton. Can any dentist treat Obstructive Sleep Apnea? “Yes, provided they have received comprehensive training in Dental Sleep Medicine, and are able to work in conjunction with a patient’s sleep doctors to properly diagnose and treat appropriately, according to the needs of the patient.” Dr. Layton and his team at Peace Arch Dental look forward to helping patients achieve a healthier life through a better night’s sleep – if you’re struggling with Obstructive Sleep Apnea and are looking for an alternative to CPAP treatment, give Dr. Layton a call today at 778-736-0116 to book an appointment. The entire Peace Arch Dental team, located at #210-15321 16 Ave., is dedicated to providing the best in health care and partners with extended health insurance providers to provide patients with the best solutions, as their tagline suggests: Better sleep, Better health, Better life. The clinic is proud to have served the dental-health needs of the White Rock/ South Surrey community for more than 34 years, and looks forward to welcoming returning and new patients for many years to come.

Welcome to the driver’s seat

Honda knows how to make a good, solid car—and for 2014—things just got a little more interesting. Zack Spencer

Visit the 2014 Honda Civic gallery at DrivewayBC.ca

From rather ordinary to rather extraordinary Tampa, Florida – Being the best at something is an achievement, and doing it repeatedly is impressive. The Honda Civic’s 16-year streak as the best selling passenger car in Canada is nothing short of astounding. For the introduction the 2014 Civic, Honda chose usually sunny and hot Tampa, to introduce their latest update. It was sunny but anything from hot, with overnight temperatures near freezing. Honda has been improving the Civic continuously since the 7th generation model was introduced as a 2012 model. Last year, for 2013, they updated the styling, handling and interior of the 2013 model and now for 2014 they are at it again. Looks The styling focus for 2014 is on the coupe. Roughly 15 per cent of all Civics are sold as a coupe, the most dominant player in the small coupe market. Last year, this sedan received updates to the front and rear styling to help make it look more upscale and sophisticated, and this year the coupe gets a similar update to the front and back, but the changes are meant to provide a sportier look with a bit more aggression.

functions like radio station information are just below the front window. In addition, the front seats are very supportive and the steering wheel is low and small for a racy feel. What is new for both the sedan and this coupe is the introduction From fuel economy to reliability, of Display Audio system that is available on the resale value, cost EX and Touring models. This is a large iPad-like of ownership and touch-screen design that Inside sportiness the 2014 lets the driver access One of the reasons that Honda Civic is a good many functions from the the Civic is the best radio to apps that pigchoice selling car in Canada is gyback off your iPhone. the practical, yet sporty (No Android apps yet but interior in both the sedan Zack Spencer they are working on this.) and coupe. Many people, This taps into the power including me, didn’t of your phone, in the big screen, with initially like the split dash with the full integration. I liked the speed and speedometer on the top and the tafunction of the design but really missed chometer on the bottom, but over time a rotary dial to adjust the volume over this design has proven to be a winner. a touch screen volume design. Yes, I was wrong. The split design now there is a volume control on the steerincorporates more information to see ing wheel but one next to the radio without having to take your eyes off would complete the package. the road. The trip computer and other The most aggressive version of both the sedan and coupe is the SI model that gets an even more forceful grille and front bumper design plus a rear spoiler and lower air diffuser. Wheel sizes have also changed with the regular coupe receiving 16-inch wheels, up from 15-inches, and the SI now bumps the size from 17-inches to 18-inches.

‘‘

’’

Drive Honda has made one small change and one big change to help with fuel economy. The small one is the exhaust system has been adjusted in both the sedan and coupe to let the engine breath better, improving horsepower slightly from 140hp to 143hp. The big change is the introduction of an inhouse continuously variable transmission (CVT), replacing the old 5-speed automatic. This actually makes this little car more drivable and might be the best CVT on the market. The car snaps away from a stop and cruises with ease

on the highway, with quick changes in the gear ratio that helps mimic a conventional automatic design. In addition, there is a sport mode and paddle shifters on the steering wheel to help liven things up. Honda has done a first rate job here and their efforts have been rewarded with a six per cent improvement in city fuel economy and an overall drop from 6.2L/100km combined to 6.0L, something very hard to do with such a small car. The driving dynamics of the Civic has always been very good due to a fully independent suspension and willing engine. The 143hp is a nice match for this car and the CVT is a great complement. The 5-speed manual is a blast to drive but it could use a 6th gear on the highway, as the high-revving engine can get noisy. The steering is crisp and the car overall instills a high level of confidence. Verdict Honda admits that their Civic might not be the top choice in every reason to buy a compact car but they are near the top in all categories. From fuel economy to reliability, resale value, cost of ownership and sportiness this car is a good choice. The many improvements made to the car over the past three-model-years, has taken the Civic from rather ordinary to rather extraordinary. They know how to make a good, solid, reliable car and for 2014 things just a little bit more interesting. The Lowdown Power: 1.8L 4-cylinder with 143hp or 2.4L with 205hp Fill-up: 6.7L/5.0L/100km (city/highway) Sticker price: $15,690-$26,655 zack.spencer@drivewaybc.ca

Channelling your inner teenager in the snow Picture this: You’re a teenager with a driver’s licence, your wealthy parents have left you alone for the day and there has just been a huge snowfall. Turns out, they decided to take the SUV and the Porsche Carrera 4S is sitting all by its lonesome in the garage. All your friends are busy so you’ll need to make your own fun today. But how? The key to this stellar coupe, which generally remains under armoured guard, somehow surfaces. Then you hear a voice calling your name. You look around and wonder if you’re imagining things or if the milk you drank for breakfast had expired. You look down at the key fob and it is speaking to you. Through its German accent you decipher words Even if you mess like, “traction control off,” up, you keep going... “sliding sideways,” “car it’s part of the learning control,” and the best of all, “you won’t get in trouble.” experience. Then giddiness overcomes Alexandra Straub your body. Your eyes widen. Your smile is uncontrollable. Before you know it you’re nestled cozily in the heated sport driver’s seat, looking where you want to go and having the time of your life; sliding sideways on a snow and ice track in a $140,000 sports car. Life is wunderbar. The best part about this teenage dream is that it’s not a teenage dream. It’s a reality. For those wanting to learn car control on a designated ice/ snow track, it’s entirely possible thanks to Porsche’s Camp4 training school. The track’s location is less than a couple of hours outside of Montreal, Que. at Mecaglisse. It’s a playground for the German automaker’s, rear-wheel drive 911 Carrera S and Cayman, along with the all-wheel drive 911 Carrera 4S. You’ll have the opportunity to drive all three vehicles in various parts of the facility. Whether you are learning how to control over and understeer on the oval, or learning how to appropriately kick the back end out by blipping the throttle at the slalom, chances are, you’ll have a grin on your face the whole time. And if you spin out, you just keep going. The program commences with a driver’s briefing and drivers are introduced to their instructors. Proper seating position is explained and then it’s time to hit the track. Exercises are done with two people to each car, and each Porsche is equipped with radios that are linked together. That way, the instructor can talk to you and give you pointers while they observe what’s going on. Sometimes you get praise. Sometimes you get constructive criticism. It’s just part of the process. Two major points that were stressed in any of the exercises were: look where you want to go not where you are going and the tires can only do one job at a time. The latter means that if you are trying to brake and turn in tandem, chances are you won’t have the maximum amount of traction, and therefore, you can upset the balance of the car and possibly not execute the manouevre you were trying to do.

‘‘

’’

Even if you do make a mistake, you just dust off the snow and try again. The Camp4 program originated in Finland in 1996 and has since been executed around the world. It’s hard to believe how much you can learn in such a short amount of time. And how much your face will hurt afterwards! That’s not even because of sub zero temperatures. The cost of Camp4 is $5,195 (plus applicable taxes.) That includes three nights accommodation at The Esterel Suites & Spa (a luxury hotel in a nearby area,) two full days of driving and all your meals and transfers from the track. As I said, even if you mess up, you keep going. And no, you won’t get in trouble for having fun. It’s part of the learning experience. Visit http://www.porsche.com/canada-pde/en/winterdriving/ for more information. alexandra.straub@drivewaybc.ca

Porsche Camp4 allows drivers to maneuver different cars in snowy conditions.

Second-gen Mazda3 a zoom-zoom hit with Canadians The new generation Mazda3 launched in 2010 was an immediate hit with Canadian compact car buyers. The car, available as a sedan or 5-door hatchback, is a nicely proportioned car with curvy styling lines, more defined front fenders and a distinctive (happy face) front air take. The zoom-zoom mind-set may not be used in the advertising today but it is still very much alive at Mazda and my enthusiastic assessment following a first drive was that it was “the most refined compact car I’ve ever driven.” My enthusiastic This generation Mazda3 assessment following initially came in three a first drive was that it trim levels GX, GS and GT. There’s also a highwas the most refined performance edition compact car I’d ever called Mazdaspeed3. A hood scoop, which driven. directs air flow to a Bob McHugh turbocharged engine intercooler, gives the Madaspeed3 a more distinctive frontal appearance. Regardless of price, trim or potency, core elements of this ‘3’ are its light yet rock-solid body platform, combined with a sport-minded engineering theme. Its lighter and stiffer chassis has more high-strength steel and other enhancements to reduce body flex and combined with suspension changes the result is a tighter and better handling car. The GX and GS trim levels come with a 148-horsepower 2.0-litre engine that provides a nice balance of power and fuel economy, which is 8.1/5.9 L/100 km (city/ highway). The GT comes with a 2.5-litre that can deliver 167 horsepower and it gets 9.2/6.8 L/100 km (city/ highway). Mazda3, which was first launched in 2003, has been consistently one of the best selling cars in Canada and the Mazdaspeed3 variant typically accounts for less than 2 per cent of sales. That certainly makes it a

‘‘

There’s more cargo room in the hatchback, however, the added security offered by the sedan’s trunk might be preferred and used prices tend to be lower. The only significant change in 2011 was the inclusion of electronic stability and traction control as standard on all models. The 2012 model year brought the introduction of Mazda’s “Skyactiv” performance and fuel-saving technologies, offered initially on the mid-range GS trim line. A direct-injected 2.0L engine is mated to either a special 6-speed manual or a 6-speed automatic transmission. It also got a mild exterior and interior restyling job that included as updated (subdued happyface) front grille. Mazda3 is highly rated by Consumer Reports for dependability, offers great value for the money and can certainly be one of the better buys on the used car market. bob.mchugh@drivewaybc.ca

harder car to find on the used car market and while prices generally tend to be premium they also vary considerably depending on condition and history. This generation Mazdaspeed3 is a more refined highperformer. It offers a more controlled unleashing of power from its turbocharged engine, yet it is still an extremely fast car. Changes to its drive shafts were designed to reduce torque steer (which still exists) and a torque-sensing limited-slip differential was added to the drivetrain. Mazda claims a top speed of 250 km/h and zero to 100 km/h time of 6.1 seconds. Engine output (263-horsepower) is the same as the 2009, however it provides a more progressive release of torque that peeks at 3000 rpm and 280 lb-ft is available. Its fuel consumption rate is also faster at 11.5/8.0 L/100 km (city/highway). Inside there’s enough room for four, maybe five, adults provided those up front are willing to share leg room.

Cars and trucks with only one headlight shining drives many readers crazy. It may not seem like a big deal to drive with a light out in the city...until you hit a fog bank. And bear in mind that in pitch black conditions in rural areas a car with a light out looks like a motorcycle from a distance. And that’s deadly. Drivers judge distance by subconsciously noting how the two beams of an oncoming car widen as it gets nearer. What drives-u-crazy? keith.morgan@drivewaybc.ca

Local builders honoured with Avid Awards By Kerry Vital

Avid Ratings Canada has honoured Wayne Houghton of Portrait Homes with a 2014 Avid Service Award for Best Customer Service Associates in Canada. “The Avid Service Award is the first award to honour exceptional employees located throughout Canada,” says Tim Bailey, Division President of Avid Ratings Canada.” We are proud to recognize these special individuals, professionals who

commit themselves every day to delivering exceptional homes and ensuring every home owners is thoroughly delighted with the major investment they’ve made.” The award is given to employees who scored about the top fifth percentile in customer satisfaction according to the Avid Ratings Canada GoSurvey program. Adera Development Corp.’s Karen Hansen is another local recipient of the award. The awards are given to employees who deliver outstanding service to customers.

NEW HOME DEVELOPMENT

Portrait Homes has always prided itself on its approach to customer service, and has been the recipient of many Avid Awards in the past, including an Avid Gold Award in 2013 and an Avid Diamond Award in 2012, both for Best Customer Service Experience in Canada, and this customer service award for Houghton continues building that reputation. Portrait also took home five Georgie Awards on Feb. 1, including Single Family Production Home Builder of the Year and Residential Community of the Year for Hampstead in Maple Ridge. Adera also took home two Georgie Awards on Feb. 1, for Multi-Family Home Builder of the Year and Best Mult-Family Low Rise Development for Sail at the University of British Columbia. The Georgie Awards are presented by the Canadian Home Builders’ Association of B.C., and recognize excellence in the residential home construction industry. “The excellent work from the winners – and indeed all the finalists – demonstrates that B.C. is truly the leader when it comes to innovative design and quality construction,” says Rob Capar, President of CHBA B.C.

Adera is offering West Coast living at Breeze, their townhouse development in South Surrey that includes exterior cedar details, above, modern kitchens with quartz countertops and stainless-steel appliances, top right, and chic laminate flooring and oversized windows, right.

Catching the Breeze in South Surrey By Kerry Vital

West Coast living is at its finest at Breeze, Adera’s townhouse development in South Surrey with more than a touch of earthy, modern style. “There has been a lot of interest in these homes,” says Adera’s Vice-President of marketing and sales Eric Andreasen. “It’s quite exciting.”

Breeze is built in a West Coast Modern architectural style, with soaring roof lines, overhanging soffits and cedar details. Lush landscaping surrounds the buildings, adding to the beauty of the development. Oversized windows are featured in many of the homes, letting natural light pour in. “It gives you a real indoor-outdoor living feel,” Andreasen says. Entertaining is easy at Breeze, with its spacious, open floorplans. The kitchens, which Andreasen describes as “the heartbeat of the home”, are perfect for hosting, with their generously sized dining islands. The quartz countertops are chic and modern, complemented by a designer glass tile backsplash, stainless-steel appliances and Metropolitan Evoke Wide Plank laminate flooring, which is also featured throughout the living and dining areas.

Buyers at Breeze are also able to customize their home through the i.D. By Me program. This allows you to make choices for your home to truly make it your own through choosing your colour scheme and upgrading your finishes and fixtures. Among the long list of options and upgrades available are adding heated floors, custom millwork, air conditioning or a gourmet appliance package. Breeze’s amenity building, the West Coast Club, opened in November and is already one of the most impressive parts of the community With a fitness centre, yoga room, entertainment room with fully equipped kitchen, pool table, big-screen TV and large outdoor patio, it’s an amenity space that Adera is extremely proud of. “It’s a real social space,” says Andreasen. “You can meet friends here or just relax.” Located in the Morgan Heights

neighbourhood, Breeze is close to nearly everything you can imagine, from shopping and dining at Morgan Crossing or Grandview Corners to leisure and recreation activities, schools and Crescent Beach. “You’re within striking distance of downtown Vancouver and the U.S. border,” Andreasen says, adding that this contributes to the popularity of Breeze among young professionals. Transit is also close by, so you can easily leave your car at home if you so choose. For a very limited time, Adera is offering a special buyers incentive up to $15,000 on select homes. Homes at Breeze start in the low 300s. For more information, visit www. adera.com, call 604-582-1113 or visit the presentation centre at #15-16223 23A Avenue, open daily between noon and 5 p.m.

Before you purchase your home, talk to the pros! at the 20th Annual First-Time Home Buyer Seminar / gvhba.org

FREE FIRSTTIME HOME BUYER SEMINAR…

}

With so many factors to take into consideration when buying a new home it is no surprise that first-time home buyers need a little help demystifying the process. Key questions will be covered by a panel of experts at the 20th annual seminar presented by the Greater Vancouver Home Builders’ Association. Doors open at 6pm to allow time for attendees to talk to exhibitors prior to the seminar.

GODDARD, DEBORAH HETTY (NEE ADCOCK) AUGUST 24, 1953 - JANUARY 29, 2014

Deborah Hetty Goddard (Adcock) of Surrey, BC. passed away peacefully after a short battle with cancer at the age of sixty on Tuesday, January 29, 2014 at Laurel Place in Surrey. She was affectionately known to close family as Mom or Grammy. She was the daughter of Thomas and Susan (Kingston) Adcock and was born in Gimli, MB., on August 24, 1953. She attended many schools because, as she put it, she was an “air force brat” meaning that the family moved quite often as her Dad was enlisted in the Royal Canadian Air Force. She met her husband, Ray in Portage la Prairie, MB. They fell in love and eloped to Edmonton, AB where they had three beautiful daughters. It was here that she became interested in health care and decided to take medical terminology courses. Upon their completion, she began working at the Royal Alexandra Hospital in Edmonton. In 1986, they moved to Surrey, BC. She immediately got a unit clerk position at Peace Arch District Hospital and, during the next 27 years, made many lifelong friends. She loved her job and was loved and respected in return and retired from the position in September of 2013. She also took leaves of absence from the hospital to teach the unit clerk course for Kwantlen College and to do the practicum with her students. Students spoke highly of her and many remain friends still. She loved gardening and small worry stones but her pride and joy were her grandchildren. She loved to spoil them (sometimes by introducing them to things their moms did not want them to know about) and got great pleasure out of all of their shenanigans. Both good and bad. She proudly displayed their artwork like it was done by the masters themselves. Deb was generous to a fault and always saw the good in people. Friends became family and family became friends and family was what you always came home to. She was a kind and gentle soul and we will all miss her dearly. She is survived by her loving husband of 41 years, Ray; her daughters Nadine (husband Jody) of Delta, BC; Alexandra of Sechelt BC; and Kimberly (husband Gerry) of Surrey, BC; her grandchildren Darius and Linkoln (Kimberly’s); and Hayley (Nadine’s); her mother Susan of Innisfail, AB; her brothers Terry Adcock (Marsha) of Calgary, AB; Bruce Adcock (Colleen) of Red Deer, AB; and sister Firth Adcock of Red Deer, AB; along with numerous nieces and nephews. She is predeceased by her father Thomas Adcock. The Celebration of Life is to be held at Victory Memorial Park at 14831 28 Avenue in Surrey, BC on Saturday, the first of March at 2:00 pm. This is a celebration of life and as such, please dress casually or in whatever clothes that you feel comfortable wearing to the event. Be prepared for some AC/DC and other favourites. Refreshments will be served afterwards. In lieu of flowers, please send donations, in her name, to your favourite charity. Letters of condolences and any special memories that you may have of Debbie can be conveyed via the onsite memorial webpage, please visit www.victoryfuneralcentre.ca
