Pedestrian killed in unsanctioned police chase through White Rock, charges allege
Victim’s sister doesn’t blame officer Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter
The sister of a woman who was struck and killed in a White Rock crosswalk nearly three years ago by a driver being pursued by police says she does not blame her sibling’s death on the officer involved. Lynné McCutcheon made the comment in Surrey Provincial Court this week, during a break in what was the first day of a preliminary inquiry to determine if evidence against Const. David Bickle is enough to warrant a criminal trial in the matter. “My family just needs this to end,” McCutcheon told Peace Arch News Tuesday. Charges against Bickle, who joined the White Rock RCMP detachment in 2009, were
announced in August 2012.

Coal impact doubted
Air tests ‘likely to ease rail concerns’ Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

Tsawwassen’s Ryan Jerome and his daughter Sterling, 3, took to the ice after operators of God’s Little Acre flooded its farm to attract skaters to the frozen landscape as temperatures fell last weekend. It was the farm’s second such fundraiser this winter – $3,700 was collected for seed, used to grow vegetables for local food banks and soup kitchens.
White Rock residents concerned about the impact of coal dust and diesel emissions on air quality will have greater insight into the issue this summer. Coun. Grant Meyer, chair of the city’s newly formed rail-safety task force, announced last month that an air-quality monitoring station will be used to get a better sense of the situation. “We’ll be able to confirm or not any potential air-quality issues with coal trains and diesel,” Meyer told council. Greg St. Louis, the city’s director of engineering and municipal operations, told task force members at their inaugural meeting Jan. 23 that Metro Vancouver has agreed to bring a mobile air-quality unit to the seaside city in the coming months. i see page 4

That is a shocking statistic. It means that there were more than 2,000 reported incidents of violent crime in Newton, a large geographical area that has more people than any other RCMP district in Surrey – more than 135,000. Even with that many people, that is a large number of violent crimes. It is completely unacceptable. The number certainly reinforces what many Newton residents have been saying – they do not feel safe on the streets, particularly at night, but now in many cases, also during the day. To compare it to other areas of Surrey, South Surrey reported just 400 violent crimes, and Cloverdale and Port Kells had 527. Guildford and Fleetwood, closer geographically to Newton and Whalley, recorded 1,160. The good news is that, in a fast-growing city like Surrey, Criminal Code offences rose just one per cent. The bad news is that it seems more and more of those offences are taking place in Newton.

Public hearing delayed as proponents review feedback for City of Surrey project
Arts-towers proposal to be revamped Alex Browne Staff Reporter
A public hearing on a contentious residential towers/arts hub development in South Surrey has been put on hold, awaiting further amendments to the plan. The public hearing, following OCP amendments given first and second readings in December, was originally expected on Jan. 13, then on several dates in February including, ultimately, Feb. 24. But City of Surrey spokesperson Amanda Silvers said the public hearing has been delayed, pending submission of an amended plan by architect Patrick Cotter, on behalf of proponents the Reifel Cooke Group and the
Surrey City Development Corporation. Silvers noted there had been two public information meetings on the project, in October and December. “They (the proponents) received quite a bit of feedback. They’re taking it away and considering it, and will be coming back to the city with an amended proposal,” she said. Silvers said the decision, while not returning the proposal to square one, would mean that the project would be resubmitted to the city’s advisory design committee before any public hearing would be scheduled. As well as upwards of 300 residential units, the two-tower proposal, for 152 Street at 19 Avenue, includes the shell of a 350-seat per-
forming arts centre and a contemporary arts centre café/gallery, which has drawn conditional support from local arts advocates. Proponents of the project say it is intended to be one of a few “landmark” developments allowed additional height in exchange for supporting cultural goals, in keeping with the city’s Semiahmoo Town Centre plan. But opponents – including the Semiahmoo Residents Association and a recently formed group, Semiahmoo Against Towers – have objected to the height of the project. The height of the highest tower was originally to be the equivalent of 30 storeys above ground level, and then, in an adjusted plan taken to the public in December, the equiva-
lent of 27 storeys. That was still too high for opponents, whose concerns include traffic, access, parking and the precedent for other highrises in the area, should OCP amendments go ahead. At a community meeting organized by opponents Jan. 20 at White Rock Christian Academy, Kristen Smith of Semiahmoo Against Towers told a crowd of about 50 people that concerns also include the pressure such a development would place on area schools and Peace Arch Hospital, the impact shadows would have on property values and quality of life in the neighbourhood, and the potential of such urbanization in attracting crime.
Roof accessed by tree
School district shares blame for boy’s fall The Surrey School District has been found 75 per cent liable for injuries suffered six years ago by a Peace Arch Elementary student who fell from the school’s roof. In rendering the decision Jan. 24 – which was posted online Friday – Judge Neena Sharma cited a failure by the district to take action to prevent children from accessing the building’s roof via trees. “I conclude it was foreseeable that trees close to the school might be used to access the roof,” Sharma found. “It is simple common sense that if a child can get onto a roof, it is reasonably foreseeable that the child might fall off that roof and get badly injured.” The injured Grade 7 student was one of two who had climbed onto the White Rock school’s roof via a cherry tree after classes on March 4, 2008. The district had argued it could not have anticipated such an event. – Tracy Holmes

Statistical breakdowns cite Newton as Surrey’s highest in homicides, sexual assaults in 2013
Violence decreases, despite record murders Kevin Diakiw Black Press
Newton had the most murder victims of any community in Surrey last year, according to 2013 crime figures released by Surrey RCMP. Of the record 25 murders across the city last year, nine of the victims were discovered in Newton, while eight were found in Whalley. Police say 17 of the city’s victims were involved in an at-risk lifestyle. The 2013 RCMP statistics – released last week – show violent crime across the city was down eight per cent last year over the prior year, while homicide was up 127 per cent. In addition to the victims found in Newton and Whalley, another five of Surrey’s murders were recorded in the RCMP district serving Guildford and Fleetwood; two were in South Surrey; and Cloverdale/Port
Kells recorded one. Carr said the higher numbers are Surrey RCMP Sgt. Dale Carr said a result of a campaign to encourage Friday that the problem with isolat- people to report sex assaults. ing a murder to any one community “We will likely continue to see is that the crime could have taken that number rise, only because peoplace elsewhere.

South Surrey (up 91 per cent). Carr said kidnapping typically
involves drug disputes: “Someone owes someone a drug debt, and they go and snatch them and hold them until friends pay them.” Despite the more alarming offences, the total number of violent crimes across Surrey was down. Guildford and Fleetwood saw a 17-per-cent drop, with 1,160 offences; Cloverdale and Port Kells had a 12-per-cent decrease with 527; and South Surrey was the most peaceful community, with 400 violent crimes (a drop of six per cent). However, while those communities showed a drop in violent crime last year, Newton and Whalley were statistically unchanged, with each seeing more than 2,100 offences. Newton is the most populous of all the RCMP’s five districts, with 135,473 residents in 2012, according to Surrey RCMP’s website. There were some big drops in
other crimes last year in Surrey as well, with attempted murder plummeting by 60 per cent, arson dropping by 38 per cent and theft over $5,000 sliding by 27 per cent. Drug crimes totalled 446 citywide. While cocaine possession was up 11 per cent, marijuana possession was up five, and pot production was down 35 per cent. Total number of Criminal Code offences in Surrey last year was 44,340 – an increase of one per cent. Carr said the Surrey RCMP is acutely aware of the challenges in Newton and has been responding to make the community safer. “We’ve got actions in place, we’ve created a number of teams, we’re bringing back a bike squad, we’re getting back the community of Newton and working together with the community and look forward to seeing the changes.”

Family of victim looks for answers i from page 1 His current duty status is “operational.” Whether he is still with the White Rock detachment could not be confirmed by PAN press deadline Wednesday. McCutcheon, who lives in Princeton, said she decided to attend the inquiry in order to learn more
about what happened the night her sister died. “There was never a trial for Kyle,” she said. While difficult to relive what happened, McCutcheon said it was important for her to be there for Laursen’s sake. “She’d be here for me,” she said.
No coal dust found in city samples i from page 1 Concerns over potential health impacts of coal dust have been top of mind for officials and residents for more than a year, since Fraser Surrey Docks announced plans to build a new direct-transfer facility. If approved, the $15-million project is anticipated to significantly increase the number of coal trains travelling through White Rock, South Surrey and Delta. While a Port Metro Vancouver environmental-impact assessment concluded the proposed terminal won’t harm health or the environment, the report has been criticized for relying on outdated studies. In December, St. Louis told council it lacked “any useful information” on the impacts of transporting coal in White Rock. Task force members – Couns.
Larry Robinson, Al Campbell and Meyer – said they are not convinced coal dust is as big of an issue as some believe. Campbell, who lives near the waterfront, said while his deck gets “quite dirty,” it is largely from saltwater and “muck.” It is “no dirtier due to more trains,” he said. St. Louis noted the city had two samples of suspected coal dust that were brought in by residents lab-tested. While one contained “very, very” minimal traces, both were deemed to not contain the contaminant. “The conclusion was there was no coal dust in either,” he said. Meyer said the air-quality units will go a long way to “either confirm what people are thinking or put their minds at ease.”

Whistle-stop? Meanwhile, Meyer is hoping citizens will add their voice to the ongoing conversation around train whistles and speak out regarding whether they want the city to spend $1.8 million to keep that noise to a minimum. The amount was determined by a consultant hired to review the city’s six pedestrian rail crossings and assess the cost of steps necessary to maintain the city’s overnight whistle-cessation policy. “That a lot of money for a city our size,” he said, adding he wants to know “if (citizens) think it’s worth it or not.” “I really hope the public starts to come forward with emails and calls and questions and thoughts.”

Man dies in one of two Vancouver stabbings Two separate stabbings involving taxis in Vancouver Sunday have left one Surrey man dead, and another facing charges. In one, Robert Tyson Smith, 28, has been identified as Vancouver’s first homicide victim of 2014, after an incident shortly after 11 p.m. at Granville and Georgia. Police say a taxi driver got into a dispute with two men and the cab’s passenger got out and joined in. “The argument quickly escalated into a fight between the
two men and the passenger, and ended with the passenger being stabbed,” said Vancouver Police Sgt. Randy Fincham. When police arrived, they found the victim unconscious on the sidewalk. He was rushed to hospital, where he later died. Police arrested two men, but they have both been released pending further investigation. In an unrelated stabbing earlier that day, police say two men were taken to hospital after an alterca-
tion at Davie and Hamilton. According to police, two men flagged down a cab just after 1:30 a.m. and a fight broke out when two other men claimed the cab was theirs. Police located two suspects and arrested one of them. Vithna Andrew Va, 24, is charged with two counts of assault causing bodily harm, two counts of assault with a weapon and one count of possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose.

Athletes deserve our attention
F
or most of the 200-plus athletes on the Canadian Olympic team – save for an NHL star or two – there are no fancy flights, fivestar hotels or media scrums after practice, and no throngs of adoring fans hounding them for autographs at every turn. For these dedicated, shining examples of clean living and old-fashioned Canadian hard work, typically there are no interview requests, agents, contracts or the glare of television cameras. At least not between Olympic years. But now, the Sochi Winter Olympics are their time to shine, their payoff for years of early morning workouts in freezing conditions in relative obscurity. Think of the bobsledder and cross-country skier. The speed skater and the athlete who does that scary skeleton thing – bombing down a steep track of ice headfirst, on a sled no bigger than their torso. There is no Luge Night in Canada with its own theme song and a TV audience of millions every Saturday night, no wall-to-wall media coverage of the World Cup ski circuit. The Peninsula is rife with Olympians and Paralympians, including Janice Birch, Mary Benson, Sarah Hunter, Hillary Caldwell, Brittany Reimer, Richard Weinberger, Christine Girard, Lynn Kanuka and Elaine Tanner. Ask any of them about their Olympic experience, and they’ll likely tell you that being in the international spotlight was a highlight of their life. And now, this country’s latest crop of athletes deserve our attention and our support, too. The Sochi Games have – in the early stages at least – garnered something of a bad rap, from the high costs of staging the Games to warm weather and a lack of snow (sound familiar, Vancouver?), and to media and athlete accommodations that in many cases have been less than stellar, albeit amusing for those able to take the challenges in stride. But now, with the Games officially on, it is athletic accomplishments that should take centre stage. So while there are no doubt important issues away from the field of play, from the colossal misuse of money – these Olympics are the most expensive in history – to Russia’s misguided, discriminatory anti-gay laws, it is also time to think of that lonely cross-country skier, slogging day after day for years in the cold, somewhere near Calgary or Williams Lake or Sherbrooke. This is their time.

once coursed through the veins of those athletes, will diminish – like the crowds that had cheered them on. As a consequence of so much attention for so long, the ensuing silence will become deafening for many. Reality will set in. Real life is not like the highs of an Olympics and – with no eventual substitute – elite athletes may struggle for months or years to refocus on their lives. Many high-profile athletes have faced serious depression after retiring and a few have never fully recovered. So when you find yourself tuning into this Olympic spectacle over the next few days and take in the highlights of the athletes’ performances, you may just catch a glimpse of something more… the moments on the podium with the look of joy in contrast to the bitter disappointment etched into other faces. The most we can truly appreciate from the comfort of our armchairs are mere fragments of these great athletes – snapshots frozen into the framework of Olympic history. What will not be so apparent on our TV screens will be the subsequent fallout that these Games will have on those who have competed in them. Win, lose or draw is little indication of the impact of an Olympic hangover on their future lives but one thing is certain they will be forever changed because of them.

Conflict over Veterans Affairs Editor: Re: Lack of support for our heroes, Feb. 6 letters. Letter-writer Pamela Lockhart is misinformed about the closure of eight Veterans Affairs offices. The closure of the offices in medium-sized Canadian cities, such as Kelowna, was done as there has been a decline in the use of these offices as the number of veterans using such services has declined. However, veterans in these cities can still access the same, helpful, over-the-counter service from a full-time Veterans Affairs specialist at the Service Canada location in their community. In fact, in five of the eight communities, the Service Canada office is in the same building the Veterans Affairs office was in. Although we’ve closed some underused offices, our government has been greatly increasing services and funding for our veterans. Since taking office in 2006, we have increased funding by over $4 billion. We’ve established or improved 17 operational stress injury clinics and 24 integrated personnel support centres across Canada for veterans recently released from the Canadian Armed Forces. And, through the opening of new Service Canada locations, we have increased by 620 the number of locations where veterans can receive service and support. Providing a superior level of care and services for our veterans is a high priority for our Conservative government, and we’re continuing to take the positive actions to demonstrate that. MP Russ Hiebert, South SurreyWhite Rock-Cloverdale Q I totally agree with Pamela Lockhart’s letter to the editor. And to corroborate her point, I experienced the following. As a retired RCAF serviceman with 21 years in the service and two tours in Europe, I attended a White Rock audiologist for a hearing test. The audiologist, on seeing my service record, said “Oh, you have to apply to the DVA, they will take good care of you.” Three years and many bureaucratic letters followed. I was denied assistance. It was an embarrassing and frustrating experience – a waste of time. I have no respect for this government, as they are not only treating service people terribly, they are changing the face of Canada. From a trusted and peace-loving country, they are changing us into a mean-spirited country whose word is no longer trusted. We are followers instead of neutral leaders with a strong voice for peace keeping. This latest move by Prime Minister Stephen Harper, in his trip to Israel, is not politically smart. If he wants to encourage home-grown terrorists he is going about it the right way. I would venture to say Canadian tourists may now have to worry more about visiting the Middle East. By the way, an MP’s pension after six years is $58,000. My pension
after 21 years was $150 per month, or $1,800 per year. Harper should stop downgrading the United Nations; it is the reason we have not had a major war since the Second World War. John Fortin, Surrey
Brilliant vision for Semiahmoo An open letter to Surrey council. I support the Semiahmoo performing arts centre/tower proposal (Arts towers opponents out in force, Jan. 23). What a creative concept. As a twentysomething student – with a heavy study schedule, working part-time – I’d like to express my enthusiasm for the
proposal, part of South Surrey’s exciting future. We are living in a time when sustainability principles are a given in future development. Higher density is a way of being responsible with our land resources. In this case, it is a catalyst to obtain muchneeded change that benefits all of us, including greater affordability. When council adopted an Interim Land Use and Density Concept in May 2012, the wheels were set in motion to encourage high-quality urban design in Semiahmoo Town Centre. The amenity contribution of a theatre/gallery/café, in exchange for additional density, is brilliant. This proposal could literally animate a barren lot, providing a great theatre, gallery and café for the extensive talent that already exists in South Surrey. The potential to revitalize other
businesses along 152 Street and encourage local shopping is a benefit to all. It’s also useful when people can live, shop and receive services in close proximity. I am all for positive change and believe the ‘art tower’ could breathe new life into our community. Brandon Lisik, Surrey

White Rock has been told to upgrade its pedestrian rail crossings, if it wants to retain its overnight ‘quiet zone.’
Silencing whistles not a solution Editor: Re: Silencing train whistles to cost $1.8m, Jan. 28. As a White Rock resident of nearly 10 years, my heart sank when I read the proposal to silence our local trains – and at a staggering cost to local taxpayers. Now I have to confess, I love everything about trains. My family settled in Bridgeview in the late ’40s, and the railway and its employees were a prominent part of our lives and included key members of my family. Pulling the train whistle was a coveted experience among the children in our family and close social circle. As a teenager growing up in Fort Langley, two blocks from the train tracks, I fell asleep to the rhythmic chugging of the train’s wheels and the mournful wail of its whistle. The popular Village Antique Mall was originally built to house my family’s antique auction, the business partners Ken Passmore and Maurice Finnegan created a game to incorporate the train’s whistle and noisy passage into the evening’s activities. The roll-up door at the back of the auction hall was quickly closed and the current high bidder was given a chance to guess on the direction the train was travelling. Correct guesses won the bidder a $5-bill. I love trains. But I understand that not everyone does. What I don’t understand is why they move next to railway tracks and then complain about the noise and force local politicians to address the problem at huge
economic and social cost to the rest of us. It’s right up there with the people who move into rural communities and then complain they don’t have a 24-hour drugstore or congestion-free super highway until the farmland all gets paved to accommodate them. There are places you can live that don’t have trains or farmland. Like a number of local children, I would miss the romance of the train whistle and resent the cost being imposed on the rest of the community. Donna Passmore, White Rock Q Does the City of White Rock truly think that these changes as outlined in Peace Arch News will truly better the sounds of rail movement between the arbitrary hours of 11 p.m. and 6 a.m.? Even for the elite few of complainers near the BNSF, this will not end in a suitable solution. A 60-plus train of rail cars in our rather short city of less than two miles will keep each and every proposed crossing clanging and chiming for a lot longer than a whistle did in years past. These proposed expenses will no doubt fall short of their objective and only result in higher property taxes. Does our city truly believe that for the total of $2.5 million of our tax money, the current sounds of such rail movements will simply be muted, go away and be a thing of the past?

Murderer denounced

Friday, Feb. 14 - Thursday, Feb. 20
Teaching ban A former Surrey teacher who killed his pregnant wife in 2006 – and is already serving a life sentence with no chance of parole for 15 years – will not be re-issued his teaching certificate for at least 25 years. Mukhtiar Singh Panghali was found guilty in 2011 of second-degree murder after the death of 31-yearold Manjit, whose charred remains were found days after attending a South Surrey yoga class. The ministry of education’s Teacher Regulation Branch last month ruled the convicted killer will be subject to a 25-year teaching ban. While the disciplinary panel does not have the authority to impose a permanent ban, the reasons for the decision say that would be the “practical effect” and that his “grave conduct” called for a substantive penalty to denounce his behaviour and maintain public confidence in the teaching profession. At the time of the murder, Panghali was a teacher at Princess Margaret Secondary. He did not file a missing-person report on wife – a teacher at North Ridge Elementary – until more than 24 hours after her disappearance, and then held a tearful press conference pleading for her return.

Star of the Sea students collect 5,000 pairs of socks for the needy
Small gesture makes big impact Students at Star of the Sea Parish provided some warmth for those living on the streets of the Downtown East Side. The students of all ages gathered 5,000 pairs of socks with a group delivering them to the needy on Feb. 7. Students Vanessa Ferronato,
Anna Borkowski and Taylor Allen, all 11, were leaders in the fundraising efforts, announcing the progress each day on the school’s PA. “It was something small that makes a big difference,” Allen told Peace Arch News. The idea to collect socks came
after the students brainstormed a way to give back, Borkowski said. In order to encourage students to participate, the school held a competition. “It was really great,” Ferronato added about the success of the campaign. – Sarah Massah

An extensive exhibit marking the 100th anniversary of the Komagata Maru’s arrival on B.C.’s shores opened at the Surrey Museum this week. Echoes of the Komagata Maru: 1914-2014 features interviews with direct descendants of the steamship’s passengers, first-hand accounts of the boat’s arrival in Burrard Inlet, and images, video and sound clips from Surrey youth on the importance of the Komagata Maru incident today and issues that persist. The Komagata Maru was a Japanese ship carrying 376 people of South Asian descent that was barred entry into B.C. by Canadian immigration officers in May 1914. The ship’s passengers, who had valid passports, were challenging Canada’s discriminatory Continuous Passage Regulation which stated all immigrants must come directly from their country of origin. Because no direct route between India and Canada existed at the time, the policy was viewed as a way to block Asian immigration, despite India
and Canada both being part of the British Empire at the time. The ship sat off the coast of Vancouver for weeks with the passengers deprived of food and water. All but 20 were deported two months after their arrival and the ship was forced to return to India. Surrey Museum is among eight institutions across the Lower Mainland to collaboratively mark the century anniversary in a project called Komagata Maru 100. Other partners are the Surrey Art Gallery, the Khalsa Diwan Society (Ross Street Temple), Museum of Vancouver, Simon Fraser University (library), Surrey Public Libraries, Progressive Intercultural Services Society (PICS), and Vancouver Maritime Museum. Each will present a unique perspective and programming to increase awareness, dialogue and understanding about the foundations of Canadian multiculturalism. Echoes of the Komagata Maru: 1914-2014 is on display from Feb. 11 to July 12. The museum is located at 17710 56A Ave. For information, call 604-592-6956.

…on the Semiahmoo Peninsula
Intense work on stage in Peninsula Productions’ Death and the Maiden
Thriller to challenge cast and audience Alex Browne
W
Arts Reporter
arning: don’t bring the kids. The language will be very raw – and so will the emotions elicited by Peninsula Productions next presentation, Ariel Dorfman’s psychological thriller Death and the Maiden. It’s further evidence that the Semiahmoo Peninsula audience has grown up enough to accept the power of decidedly adult theatre fare (like Peninsula’s Agnes of God and White Rock Players’ Club’s The Crucible) alongside the usual smorgasbord of comedies and mysteries. But it’s only fair to add that the powerful drama, directed by Wendy Bollard – presented in a four-performance-only run, March 5-8, 8 p.m. at Coast Capital Playhouse, 1532 Johnston Rd. – is not for the faint of heart. Written by Chilean playwright Dorfman as his country returned to democracy after the brutal, fascistic excesses of the Pinochet regime, ❝It’s a tough show – but rich Death and the Maiden and rewarding.❞ – featuring well-known local actors Lori Tych, Guy Fauchon Ben Odberg and Guy Fauchon – serves as a warning that the nightmares of the past may always be lurking just under the surface. And it poses a question: if you were suddenly in a position to exact justice, and satisfy an understandable desire for revenge, would you find yourself replicating the brutality of your oppressors? The production was originally announced for November at Semiahmoo Arts’ Centennial Park studio-gallery, but had to be postponed because of a family emergency. Bollard acknowledges that Peninsula

Appearing in Peninsula Productions’ gritty thriller Death and the Maiden are (left to right) Ben Odberg, Lori Tych and Guy Fauchon. Productions’ decision to move the show to Coast Capital Playhouse has meant losing a limited seating, non-traditional theatre feel that would have recreated Dorfman’s original vision of presenting the three-actor psychological thriller in a very intimate space. But the postponement has allowed director and actors to dig even deeper into characterization and motive, a paring-down process that matches Dorfman’s unrelenting dissection of moral values and the potential behaviour of the human animal, she said.
“I’m really working them hard,” she said, adding she has been thrilled, not only at keeping the cast together, but by her actors’ renewed willingness to explore the material. “They were ready to jump in with both feet,” she added. Paulina Salas (Tych), a married woman in a Latin American country – which, like Chile, has returned to democracy after years of dictatorship – harbours dark secrets. As a political prisoner, she had been raped and tortured, and her principal tormentor was a doctor who ‘experimented’ on her.
When her husband, Gerardo (Odberg), unexpectedly brings home Roberto (Fauchon), Paulina is convinced that their guest is actually the doctor who brutalized her physically and psychologically. But is he? Gerardo isn’t sure – and when Paulina decides to take the law into her own hands, he finds himself cast as Roberto’s defender. It’s just the beginning of a hall-of-mirrors scenario in which every assumption about the dramatic situation – including each › see page 20
Unique collaboration on display in upcoming exhibit Arts Reporter

Linda Pearce (left) and Elizabeth Hollick.
On the face of it, it seems like an “Odd Couple” scenario. Painters Elizabeth Hollick and Linda Pearce have such contrasting personalities and artistic styles that one might think them getting together to paint once a week might be a source of conflict. Instead, both artists say they’re
enjoying what Hollick calls a “light-hearted, lively diversion.” That the chemistry of their sessions has been abundantly fruitful will be seen at a glance at their upcoming art exhibit, Linda and Liza: Painting Plenty, which opens Friday evening for three days at Semiahmoo Arts’ Centennial Park gallery. “We call it Painting Plenty because she’s painted plenty of
fruits and vegetables and I’ve painted plenty of flowers and pots,” laughed Pearce. Nearly two years ago, the pair began getting together each Friday morning to paint side-byside for hours, either at Pearce’s Ocean Park condo or Hollick’s White Rock condo. “We start with a cup of coffee and get right down to it,” Hollick said. “The first part is planning
and moving things around, then we have lunch, and then we focus in on painting.” Neither one discusses the work much, she added – at least not until they have celebratory glass of wine at the end of the day. “The last three-quarters of an hour is really exciting – that’s when we have to pull what we’re painting together,” Hollick said. › see page 21

Actors ‘having fun’ despite grim subject › from page 19 audience member’s notion of right and wrong – will be challenged. For Fauchon, returning to White Rock, where he grew up and participated in Earl Marriott and XEmpt Theatre productions before launching his professional career, it’s a perfect opportunity to showcase the powerful potential of smallervenue theatre. “It’s a tough show – but rich and rewarding,” he said, in an interview conducted during rehearsals in November. While he wondered aloud whether, given the grimness of the subject matter, it was appropriate to say he’s enjoying himself, he can’t deny the thrill of a such an exercise in pure theatre.
“I’m having such a fun time,” he admitted, with a chuckle. Fauchon said he’s also enjoying working with Bollard, whom he’s known for many years. “Wendy’s a great director; she’s very subtly creative, and, without directing anything specifically, she opens up all these areas for exploration.” The intensity of Death and the Maiden is palpable, he said. “It can get very raw,” he added. “There’s never been more hugs and laughter after a rehearsal.” One of the challenges of the show for the actors, Fauchon said, is preserving a degree of ambiguity that Dorfman has built into the script. And while he said he’s had to make a choice about Roberto “for my
own purposes,” he trusts that there is plenty of scope for audiences to argue about their perception of the truth of the storyline. “You’ll hear a line
and you’ll say, wait a minute, didn’t the same character say something just the opposite two pages ago? Was that person lying then – or is that person lying now?”
Performances are at 8 p.m. Tickets are available online at www. peninsulaproductions. org or at the box office, 604-536-7535.

Artists share love of colour › from page 19 “There’s no competition. We totally accept each other as we are, and we’re glad the other person is comfortable being who they are.” Pearce had initiated the invitation to her colleague to join her at a time when Hollick had closed her studio – her now-late husband, Mike, had gone into a serious health decline, and their hillside home was on sale. Pearce had some qualms about how it would work, she admitted. “Liza is a bouncy extrovert who enjoys the limelight and I’m a quiet introvert who doesn’t.” But both have a love of colour and working directly from real objects – Hollick likes to prowl fruit and vegetable markets for examples that inspire her, while Pearce scours thrift stores for interesting vases and pots that will complement whatever blooms she has chosen. And both like listening to the radio or recorded books while they work (Alexander McCall Smith and Bill Bryson are current favourites).
“It occupies the ‘think-too-much’ brain,” Pearce said. And while Pearce’s meticulous impressionistic approach and Hollick’s bold and vivid simplification of form, shading and colour are still seemingly divergent, there is evidence that a little of each other’s approach has rubbed off. Hollick’s current studies of chopped-up fruits and vegetables are showing increasing compositional organization, while Pearce acknowledges she is working on a faster, more spontaneous approach with her painting. Pearce, who retired from her position as a kindergarten teacher at Martha Currie Elementary five years ago, said she has been re-exploring painting and drawing after years of finding a creative outlet through brightly coloured needlepoint works inspired by nature. Opening reception for the exhibit is at 7 p.m. Friday at 14600 North Bluff Rd., with weekend hours 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Pistachio Spring Fashion Trends for 2014 #1. Jeans – Nothing is more versatile than a jean jacket! It can go over everything: jeans, capris, dresses and is a traveling necessity. Skinny ankle jeans are ideal if you can wear them, because they can be rolled up for capris. If your body shape doesn’t suit skinnies, straight legs are great. Make sure the jeans have slim thighs. Nothing adds 10 lbs quicker than baggy jeans.
Beth & Janie
#2. Colour – Juicy brights and soft pastels, white with everything; even white and black together have a fresh Spring feel and grey looks chic paired with white – especially in the new Italian look and linen combos. Add metallic to brighten your look! #3. Tops – Looser, flowy and layered, the variety is endless: high-low tops, cold shoulder tops, vintage tops, crochet tops and cardis, sleeveless sweaters with a little, tight layering top underneath, or loose t-shirts with a tight tank underneath - the layers go on and on. Ask your fashion store for help in seeing how this look works for you!
Blazers in Bloom
#4. Pattern – Pattern has gone wild! The animals have escaped from the zoo! Pairing patterned top and bottom separates takes some work. At PISTACHIO, we love mixing patterns – even if it’s just a scarf to make an outfit pop. #5. Traveling Fabrics – Whether it is the versatility of Sympli, crinkly tops and outfits that can be packed in a mini bag or the super light weight fabrics for Spring – we can help you pack it all in a carry-on! Isn’t that amazing?? #6. Shapeez – A great look begins with the right undergarments, if lumps and bumps are showing up, try on our wonderful ‘Unbelievabra’! It will make you look and feel like a new woman!
PENINSULA VILLAGE
We love this quote from Jeanne Beker which sums up our fashion philosophy at PISTACHIO – “Don’t be afraid to wear something fabulous! I say get it out and wear it. We’re seeing gorgeous necklaces paired with jeans, cashmere jackets and jeans. It’s all about mixing it up. That’s where the luxurious notion comes from.” BE CONFIDENT and HAPPY SHOPPING!!

Splashes Wash Lodge There is something exciting in the car industry; it is the new way to wash a vehicle and we are inviting you to take this revolutionary car wash for a test ride. Splashes always has been on the cutting edge of the car care industry with specialized products and services such as Ryan & Greg ICBC Express Auto Glass Repair, X-Kote paint restoration and scratch repair, Armaguard Truck accessories, Roof Racks and Modula Vehicle Cargo Boxes. Splashes continues to push the boundaries with our brand new and total custom car wash. We have created the WhiteWater CarWash; an automated conveyor touchless car wash which has taken the best attributes of all the latest technologies to create something truly unique. The WhiteWater Car Wash cleans safer, better, faster and more efficiently than ever before. Some WhiteWater Wash Key Points • The ability to process 40 cars per hour meaning customers will not wait longer than a few minutes for a wash even on very busy days. • Touch-free and therefore vehicles are cleaned safely mitigating the liability of damages from a friction car wash. • New technology allows for accurate wash measurement and adjustments for each vehicle. This provides powerful and efficient cleaning for all vehicle sizes and shapes including the top surfaces. An area that most other touch-free washes struggle with. • Simple design and therefore maintenance is much less than the friction conveyor counterparts. This helps keep the wash running more often and with less chance of a mechanical failure which can often cause vehicle damage in a friction wash. • The White Water Wash has a Tire Shine Option which automatically applies an Amoral type of product to vehicle tires at the end of the wash. • We are offering the White Water wash at an introductory rate of only $10.00 for a limited time • Splashes offers complete interior vacuuming and cleaning too The WhiteWater Car Wash is something you’ll want to take for a spin. Is your ride ready for it?

Eleganté Shoes With decades of experience in the footwear industry, a dedication to customer service and a keen eye for the latest fashion trends from around the globe, it’s no wonder Eleganté Shoes in Semiahmoo Shopping Centre has been a favourite shopping destination on the Scott & Drew Robb Peninsula for years. As the oldest footwear store on the Peninsula – celebrating nearly 30 years in business – this family-owned footwear store offers an international selection of the best in shoe shopping for men and women of all ages. “It’s all about knowing who your customer is,” owner Scott Robb says. “Retail has become very challenging in the last couple of years, due to the ups and downs of the economy, but our selection and service is what really sets us apart.” While Eleganté is knows for keeping an eye out for the latest styles, they have also built a strong reputation on timeless, high-quality footwear from brands like Stuart Weiztman, Ecco, Clarks, Josef Siebel, Naot and VanEli. “European products are our specialty, but most importantly, quality is our mantra,” Scott said. As the ground begins to thaw and signs of spring show up on the Peninsula, there are plenty of footwear trends to be excited about for the upcoming season, according to Scott. Expect colours to be more prominent this spring and summer than they have in past years – nothing super bright, but plenty of light pastels that will make a subtle yet sassy statement. And just because the sun will be coming out doesn’t mean it’s time to put away the boots – spring and summer boots – some with open-toes or small heels – are expected to be popular for the upcoming months. For a casual, yet elegant look, pyranees-influenced espadrilles just might be the look of the season – the perfect addition to your spring wardrobe to combine practicality and pizzazz. To find a huge selection on all these great spring and summer looks, and for the best customer service around, visit Eleganté Shoes at Semiahmoo Shopping Centre today.

WR Mattress Gallery Home of BC made Healthy Sleep Products. Is your bedroom lacking the kind of bed or mattress that you need to have the sleeping experience that you need? Is your sleeping experience frustrating and filled with numerous interruptions? Do you find yourself unhappy or irritable when you wake up in the morning? If so, you probably have a problem with your bed or mattress. These types of problems mean that your Raman Dhaliwal mattress is either too old, or isn’t functioning properly. Maybe it has lumps or sagging spots, maybe it’s lacking in the kind of support that your back and joints need, or maybe it just isn’t comfortable. Regardless, if you are having any of these kinds of problems with your bed, it’s time to turn to a better option for your mattress or bedroom suites and furniture. It’s time to start shopping at WR Mattress Gallery. WR Mattress Gallery – which opened in August 2013 at 2390 152 St., and has a sister store in Parksville that has been in business for 13 years – has a huge selection of quality, made-in-Canada mattresses in stock to fit every customer’s needs. Whether you want your bedroom to be outfitted with an IRONMAN Mattress, natural or organic latex mattress and pillows, adjustable beds, cabinets, cabinet beds (Cabedza’s and Cabednets), bedroom furniture and more, we can serve you quickly and efficiently. Adjustable beds allow you to shift the pressure of your body so that your joints and back don’t have to deal with the constraint strain. They take the weight off of your body when you sleep and allow your joints to get the rest they need. When combined with a IRONMAN Recovery Mattress, adjustable beds can carry the ultimate comfort. WR Mattress is the exclusive Surrey/White Rock dealer of IRONMAN Recover mattresses, which give your body the support it craves, which means that your heart pumps more efficiently and the rest of your body gets extra oxygen. When your body is better supplied with oxygen, you wake up feeling rested, rejuvenated and ready to go. Unlike Memory foam, latex does not sleep hot because of it’s open cell technology. Also doesn’t sag or leave body impressions like other mattresses. Benefits sufferers of Arthritis, Diabetes, Asthma, Aches & Pains. Locally owned and operated, the team at WR Mattress has years of experience in the industry – one of the owners has been in the mattress business since 1987, and teamed up with co-owner Raman, who co-consulted the Staples Copy Centre in White Rock South Surrey for seven years. WR Mattress is committed to providing top quality products made by leading B.C. manufacturers, and strives to ensure each and every customer leaves their store satisfied. They provide a 366-night comfort guarantee on selected mattresses – the longest in the industry. It’s time to get a good night’s sleep. You deserve it.
Also available for adjustable beds and multiple positions and massage
Celliant and Celitex latex are revolutionary new technologies that harness the body’s natural energy, as well as infrared light, sunlight, and other lights through the use of optically responsive minerals and fibres. My Recovery Mattress has been clinically proven to increase blood flow and in turn bring needed oxygen to the body. Increased oxygen levels in the body helps naturally boost recovery and creates the optimal environment to help you feel better, balance body temperature and reduce pain.

Crescent Beach Vet Voted Best Veterinarian, reader’s choice newspaper poll, 2 years in a row! Any animal lover knows that pets truly are members of the family. So when your pet requires medical attention, it’s important you seek the care of a trusted professional veterinary clinic. Since opening their doors in Le-Ann, Sherree, 1998, the Crescent Beach Vet Clinic has treated Dr. Andrews and Claire pets of all shapes and sizes, from cats and dogs to pot-bellied pigs and hedgehogs. What started as a modest veterinary clinic providing vaccines, spay/neuter surgery and basic dental care has grown steadily. Today their services have expanded to include advanced diagnostic and treatment options including cancer chemotherapy, ultrasound exams, radiography, video endoscopy and stem-cell therapy. The knowledgeable and caring team at Crescent Beach Vet is led by Dr. Tim Andrews, who studied marine biology at the University of Victoria. Before becoming a veterinarian, Dr. Andrews was assistant to the head trainer at Sealand of the Pacific for seven years. He was responsible for the care and training of killer whales and sea lions, and was also a key member of the aquarium’s marine mammal rescue and rehabilitation team. After graduating from the Western College of Veterinary Medicine in Saskatchewan in 1987, Dr. Andrews traveled and worked as a locum veterinarian in over 70 clinics and hospitals in Alberta, B.C. and the Yukon. He has extensive experience working with all types of animals, including cattle, sheep and horses, bears, cougars, wolves, monkeys and reptiles. Dr. Andrews is a proud member of the American Veterinary Dental Society, because he believes dental care and oral health are an essential part of a pet’s overall health and well being. Full-service dental cleanings as well as specialized dental treatments, when needed, are also available on site. In addition to offering a range of health care services to family pets, the Crescent Beach Veterinary Clinic offers diet and nutritional advice, vaccine recommendations, and advice about training and animal behavior. Check up schedules are individually tailored to your pet’s age, breed, medical history and lifestyle. They believe preventative medicine is the best medicine. And with more than 20 years of experience performing a range of surgical procedures, including abdominal surgery, ophthalmic procedures and fracture and ligament repair, clients can rest assured their furry loved ones are in good hands with Dr. Andrews and his team. To find out more about the experienced team at Crescent Beach Veterinary Clinic and the wide range of services they offer, visit www.crescentbeachvetclinic.ca or call 604-538-7105.

The Curtain Call
Whether you’re moving into your first home, downsizing your ‘empty nest’ or just wanting to make the most out of your living space, having a distinct vision for bringing design elements together can make a world of difference in your home. Joan Walker, owner and principal designer of The Curtain Call Custom Interiors, uses her discerning eye and affinity for attention to detail to offer a range of interior-design services. For White Rock residents Kirk Mitchell and Kathy Kinloch, Joan’s passion for decor and decades of experience transforming homes has Joan Walker seen them through three separate renovations spanning more than a decade. When the Kinloch’s first moved into their East Beach home 12 years ago, they enlisted Joan’s help with a minor re-design, updating the paint colours and arranging furniture. “These small changes made a big difference right away,” Kathy recalls. A few years later when their son graduated high school, Joan was back for a major renovation, taking on a complete transformation including new furniture, window coverings, fixtures, flooring and paint. The overhaul also included a new fireplace in the living room; a complete redo of the basement including a new kitchen, fireplace and laundry room; a complete makeover of the Master ensuite, including installation of a stand-alone tub, walk-in shower and new vanity; and brand new bedding furniture and accessories for the Master bedroom. “We wanted to create a timeless space whose look could be changed seasonally with a few accessories, and the Kinlochs wanted a home in which they could entertain friends,” Joan explains. Thrilled with the results, the Kinlochs once again called upon The Curtain Call to renovate their outdated main-floor kitchen a few years later, giving Joan free rein to take on the project while they vacationed in Europe. “Joan already knew our style from having done the large reno, so I trusted her to make the decisions for us,” Kathy says, noting she wouldn’t change a thing about her new kitchen. The Kinlochs are just one of many families Joan and The Curtain Call team have worked with over the past 20 years, and represent a distinct type of customer looking to update their home in a practical yet elegant way to reflect where they are in their lives. Fresh off a trade show in Las Vegas, Joan is excited about integrating some of the latest market trends in her upcoming projects, including the latest in lighting and storage as well as automation, which is extremely popular in everything from window coverings to kitchen cabinets and doorways. Joan’s warm, spirited personality, commitment to following through with outstanding service and high-quality workmanship make for a great working relationship with all her clients, as Kathy Kinloch can attest to. “In all the years I’ve worked with Joan, I’ve never felt like there was another client more important than us.” To find out more about The Curtain Call and Joan’s design services, call today.

South Point Dental When it comes to your family’s health, finding a trusted dentist for all your oral-care needs is an essential part of maintaining overall health and wellness in your home. It’s important to see the same dentist regularly, which will allow you to establish a trusting relationship, and provide a sense of familiarity between the dentist and your oral-health needs and history. But choosing a dentist isn’t as easy as choosing a Dr. Edmund Wong restaurant to dine in; there is plenty to consider when seeking out the care of an oral-health professional. Here are some important steps to take when searching for a dentist for your family: - Getting a referral If you and your family are moving to a new community, it’s helpful to ask your current dentist if he or she can provide a recommendation. Or, ask any friends or relatives you may have in your new community if they have any suggestions. - Checking out the logistics Logistics are an important part of the selection process, including accessibility, office hours, dental emergencies and languages spoken. Not every dental office accepts new patients throughout the year, so a quick call can determine whether they’d be available to treat your family. - Paying a visit Visiting the dental office in person is an important next step, as it will help you to determine if it was easy to get to and how long the trip took from your home. You can also assess how you feel about the office and waiting room’s level of cleanliness and organization, and the overall ambience that you receive from staff when you arrive. - Talking with the doctor Once you have found an office you’re comfortable with, it’s important to discuss with the dentist their approach to treatment, the services they provide and what preventative oral-health measures they advocate. At South Point Dental Centre, the experienced team of dentists, hygienists and staff provide a wide range of dental services and welcome new patients of all ages to their South Surrey clinic.

…on the Semiahmoo Peninsula
Surrey splits two-game weekend homestand
Eagles win wild game on Family Day Nick Greenizan Sports Reporter
The Surrey Eagles’ offence ran hot and cold over the Family Day long weekend. Or, more accurately, it ran cold, then hot. The Birds – who clinched a BC Hockey League playoff spot earlier this month – began the weekend slowly, dropping a 3-0 shutout to the Penticton Vees Saturday at South Surrey Arena. But they rebounded nicely from the goalless outing by posting seven goals in a wild 7-6 win over the visiting Chilliwack Chiefs Monday afternoon. In the latter game, both teams traded goals back and forth until Surrey forward Braeden Russell – who had scored in the second period already – potted the go-ahead marker with just 40 seconds left on the clock. “It was one of those games that’s exciting for the fans, but not so much coaches,” said Eagles head coach Peter Schaefer. “It was basically last shot wins.” Russell’s two-goal effort was dwarfed only teammate Danton Heinen, who had a hat-trick, and Danton Heinen the Renouf brothers, who three goals combined for six points. Jonah Renouf had two goals and an assist and Nathan had three helpers. Chilliwack’s offence was led by Carter Cochrane, who had a goal and two assists, while a handful of players had two-point nights, including Mitchell Plevy and Jaret Babych. Bo Didur got the start in net, earning the win despite giving up six goals. Monday’s contest was the rookie netminders first game since Jan. 15; he’d been sidelined with an injury for much of the last few weeks. “I thought he was a little shaky at times, but it was his first game back,” said Schaefer. On Saturday, Schaefer said the game could have easily swung in favour of his squad, but special-teams play made the difference. “We had some chances to score early in the game, but couldn’t do it,” he said. “Then they came back at the end of the first (period) and got a couple power-play goals and that was it.” All three Vees’ goals came with the manadvantage, including one from Nic Pierog, the former Eagle who was dealt to Penticton

The Vees went 3-for-4 on the power play, compared to 0-5 for the Eagles. Schaefer has said numerous times throughout the season that his team’s commitment to defence needed improvement, and though nine goals-against in two games isn’t going to make many coaches happy, he did admit his club has shown improvement as they head towards the post season. “I think you can kind of throw out the six-goal (game). I think we’re playing more aggressively, and the gaps (between the

opposing puck-carrier and the defenceman) are smaller, so anytime you can close those gaps, you’re going to be better,” he said. Surrey sits in fourth in the Mainland Division with a 23-27-1-1 record, seven points back of the third-place Coquitlam Express. The Langley Rivermen lead the division with a 32-12-2-5 mark, which puts them seven points up on second-place Prince George and 23 higher than Surrey. But despite the point differential, Schaefer did not sound too concerned if Langley ends up being Surrey’s first-round playoff oppo-
nent, which seems likely. “There’s nobody who is really running away with it, in any (conference),” he said. “So it’s going to be a real battle for everybody once playoffs start. “You just kind of thrown out the seedings and everybody’s equal. It might just come down to who can get on a run, or who has the hot goalie.” Surrey is back on home ice this weekend, hosting Salmon Arm Friday night, before heading down to the road to Chilliwack for a game Saturday against the Chiefs.

Thirteen team members to play at BC Winter Games
Falcons to soar in Mission Rick Kupchuk Black Press
The Surrey Falcons are having an outstanding season. And BC Hockey has acknowledged it. Tryouts for zone teams for the B.C. Winter Games were staged last month, and 13 players from the Falcons have been selected to play in the elite tournament for under-16 female players, which is set to hit the ice Feb. 20-23 in Mission. There were roughly 50 players from across the Fraser Valley competing for the 20 positions on the Fraser Valley (Zone Three) team, and more than half the roster will be comprised of Falcons. Mackenzie Brown, Sophia Christopherson, Emily Duchak, Emily Laroue, Nicola Murray, Danika Pasqua, Alicia Perez, Jessie Sanghe, Priya Sidhu, Sadie Stoppler, Mya Taylor and Tessa Younger will wear the light blue uniforms of the Fraser Valley team. Brown, however, will miss the Games due to a recent injury. Shona Bal, a Falcons player who resides in North Delta, will play at the Gameswith the Fraser Delta (Zone 4) team. BC Hockey selects the zone teams as part of its Female High Performance Program. “They all played very well during the tryouts,” said Falcons assistant coach Don Murray, admitting it

The Surrey Falcons will compete at the BC Winter Games in Mission. was a surprise 13 players from one team were selected. “We do have a strong team.” Not all the players are Surrey residents, but come from communities without a Bantam A female team. Christopherson and Pasqua hail from Langley, while Duchak lives in Maple Ridge. The Falcons are in second place in the Pacific Coast Amateur Hockey Association’s female Bantam A league with a 12-2-4 (wonlost-tied) record, trailing only the 15-2-1 North Shore Avalanche. They have attended three tournaments, winning in Richmond and San Jose while placing second in Calgary after falling 4-1 to the
Avalanche in the championship game. With the regular season nearing an end, the Falcons will focus on qualifying for the provincial championships after the B.C. Winter Games concludes. “We thought we might have a shot at the provincials early this season,” said Murray. “We picked up some strong players from Langley and Maple Ridge, and after a few practices, it all came together.” The Games will include participants from across B.C. in 18 sports.

Looks Last year, Nissan introduced the bigger mid-sized Pathfinder SUV and this smaller Rogue shares many styling cues from its bigger brother. This, in my opinion, is a good idea. It has a sense of purpose, sophistication and commonality that helps define Nissan’s brand. Nissan wants to portray “everyday premium” with this new Rogue, including such nice touches as LED daytime running lights, wheel arch extensions, integrated mirror turn
7-passenger SUV. Granted, the third row is tight but perfect for those occasional times when extra family members are in town. In addition, this package includes navigation, a 7-inch touch screen monitor, power lift gate, blind-spot detection system, and lane departure warning system. These really are premium features found only in luxury SUVs just a few short years ago. Unfortunately, the top SL trim is only available in a two-row 5-seat configuration because

QUESTION OF THE WEEK!
it was felt the price would be too high for compact SUV buyers. Drive As hard as it might be to believe, this new, larger and slightly heavier (49kg) Rogue is actually more fuel-efficient than the last model. They were able to improve the economy by 18 per cent through the introduction of a new continuously variable transmission (CVT), aerodynamic tricks, and letting the carried-over engine breathe a bit better. Still rated at 170hp, the 2.5L 4-cylinder engine does a good job in city driving, thanks to the gearing of the new CVT but can seam a bit underpowered for higher, passing manouevre on the highway. Overall, the person filling the new Rogue up with fuel will welcome this balance of efficiency and everyday drivability. As part of the winter driving experience, I drove on an ice course in Macaglisse, Que., to highlight the vehicle’s stability system and the Active Trace Control feature. On the first run, through the twisty, sheer ice roads the entire system was shut off. As I crested a hill, then made a hard right turn, the Rogue slid all
the way out to the edges of the corner, almost hitting the opposing snow bank. On the second run, with the advanced systems on, the same road was almost uneventful. The stability and traction control kept the wheels from spinning but the Trace Control System provides just a slight amount of brake force to the inside wheels to help the Rogue navigate the sheet ice with confidence. Verdict The objective with this new Rogue was to be noticed and provide a level of refinement and creature comforts that the competition isn’t providing. The pricing is fantastic, especially the middle SV models. The larger interior dimensions will always be welcome, as buyers like to get more for their money, but it is still small and efficient enough for city buyers.

Safety Tip: Distracted driving is the third leading cause of car crash fatalities in our province, which is why police are out in full force this month as part of a province-wide distracted driving campaign.

Adventures in leaving Detroit and trusting your vehicle’s GPS and calm throughout the craziness was the Jeep Cherokee. The leather-trimmed seats were plush and comfortable to sit in for hours on end. When I started veering off the straight and narrow – aka out of my lane – the lane departure warning would gently lead me back into place. And since it was frigid outside – Ontario and Michigan in January is anything but tropical – features like a remote starter, heated seats, a heated steering wheel and dual climate zone controls keep occupants toasty warm. Not to mention there was a generous amount of power being delivered from its 3.2L, Pentastar V6 engine, which is rated at 271 horsepower and 239 lb-ft of torque. It’s then linked to a 9-speed automatic transmission. Then it happened. A sign. A sign to Canada nonetheless. Looks like we’d been routed through Sarnia. I was doing a little happy dance on the inside. Did I doubt the GPS’s ability to lead? I sure did.

Juke is extraordinarily out of the ordinary If you’re looking for something a little out of the ordinary, then check out a Nissan Juke. It was described by Nissan as a sport cross-utility vehicle, when introduced for the 2011 year. The Juke is not big or pricey; it has (let’s say) distinctive styling lines and it packs a hot little engine under hood that also provides excellent fuel economy. It is short in length yet tall in stature and has a wide stance with short front/rear body overhangs. The round headlights were rally car-inspired and are topped by distinctive “crocodile eye” light combinations. From a side view, the Juke has a two-door coupe look with “hidden” rear door handles. Even a base SV trim level of The Juke is not big Juke comes surprisingly well or pricey; it has (let’s equipped with alloy wheels, say) distinctive styling keyless entry, air conditioning, 4-wheel disc brakes, stability lines and it packs a control, steering wheel audio hot little engine under controls, heated side mirrors, a security system, Bluetooth and the hood that also connectivity. provides excellent fuel audio The sweetest part of the economy. package is the turbocharged (with intercooler) 1.6-litre Bob McHugh direct injection, 16-valve engine. Power peeks at an impressively high 188 horsepower and 177 lb-ft of torque. While its fuel economy ratings are a super-frugal 7.3/6.1 L/100 km (city/highway), this engine does prefer pricier premium fuel. An optional all-wheel-drive (AWD) system comes with a torque-vectoring feature on the rear axle. Under normal driving conditions, it directs all drive power to the front wheels for best fuel economy. It can (automatically) vary drive up to an equal split between the front and rear axles.

comes with the higher SL trim level. This trim also includes fog lights, a power moonroof, push-button start and climate control air conditioning. A 6-speed manual transmission was standard with the front-drive models and the automatic is a CVT type. Despite Juke’s compact exterior dimensions, there’s seating space (with a bit of a squeeze) for five adults on the inside. The rear seat is a handy fold-down 60/40-split bench that folds flat to provide an extended cargo floor. Juke’s centre console is a motorcycle-inspired design that has a high-gloss (colourmatched) painted finish. Juke carried-over into the 2012 model year virtually unchanged and had only minor alterations for 2013. The Navigation package includes a rear view monitor and a stereo upgrade (that was standard on Juke SL). The NHTSA overall crash test safety rating (front/side/rollover) for Juke was 4 out of 5 stars, with a 3 out of 5 stars in its frontal impact test. It received a coveted “recommended” buy

A Chilliwack readers asks: When did it become okay to turn left, over a solid yellow line, or a double solid line to whip in for groceries, go for? – These clowns also do not seem to care if traffic is backed up behind them for blocks; they seem to think their time is more important than that of others. It’s NOT illegal to turn left across such lines as long as the manoeuvre does not cause back-ups as described by the reader. What drives-u-crazy? keith.morgan@drivewaybc.ca

Infiniti is celebrating a remarkable double 2014 AJAC New Technology Award win, as both of these ground breaking new technologies are available on its exceptional new Q50 sports sedan. Direct Adaptive Steering, which is the first production auto use of a steer-by-wire system, won the Best New Innovation Technology Award. And a Predictive Forward Collision Warning Technology won the Best New Safety Technology Award. This is the first year that AJAC (Automobile Journalists Association of Canada) has presented a second “Best New Technology” award. It was done to resolve a recurring decision dilemma that we (I’m one of the 12) face on the judging panel: No matter how a smart or innovative a new technology entry may be, how do you choose it over an entry that could potentially save lives or reduce the severity of injuries in a collision. Driving enthusiasts, almost universally, have a negative knee-jerk reaction to severing that mechanical link between the steering wheel and road wheels. Direct Adaptive Steering (DAS) is a bold move by Infiniti and it had the guile, and the racing connections, to involve the best driver in the world (fourtime F1 Champion) Sebastian Vettel in the development of Q50. On the plus side, DAS eliminates the mechanical losses that can dull and delay steering response to driver inputs in a mechanical/ hydraulic steering system. Harsh unwanted vibrations at the steering wheel are eliminated and the driver can choose, using a four-mode selector, the amount of steering effort and response that he or she prefers. DAS also has a triple-mode (three control units) clutch feature that instantly defaults it to a fail-safe mechanical steering linkage, if electrical power is cut. The Best New Safety Technology award went to Infiniti’s Predictive Forward Collision Warning (PFCW) technology. This system can warn a driver of a potential collision risk that actually lies beyond a driver’s normal field of view. PFCW not only monitors movement of a vehicle that’s directly ahead in the same traffic lane, it can also (mystically) monitor a vehicle (two cars ahead) in front of the vehicle directly ahead.
sensors warn the driver to begin braking when it detects either one of the vehicles ahead are decelerating or braking at a rate beyond a certain threshold.
PFCW can be particularly useful when following a large vehicle that obstructs forward vision like a delivery truck or a bus. Distance Control Assist

The six coolest car names ever By Rob Sass
Shakespeare famously asked, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in a name?â&#x20AC;? Frankly, in the automotive world, a hell of a lot. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s difficult to imagine a Corvette called anything else. Yet, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not on my list of cool names because prior to its application to Americaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sports car, a corvette was a not-quite-adestroyer type of small anti-submarine boat. The name only became cool after the Corvette became a success (which didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t exactly happen overnight). These six car names are just cool. â&#x20AC;˘ Mercury Marauder: The name conjures up bands of roving barbarians. In addition to providing basic transportation, who wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want a car thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also proficient at looting and pillaging? â&#x20AC;˘ Ferrari 500 Superfast: Even in the early 1960s, using this name took cojones â&#x20AC;&#x201C; something that Enzo Ferrari never lacked. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s almost over-the-top comical, not unlike Wile E. Coyoteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s business card, which listed his occupation as â&#x20AC;&#x153;Super Genius.â&#x20AC;? One can only imagine the response of todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s product liability lawyers to this one. â&#x20AC;˘ Ford Mustang: While the association with the car doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t hurt, the name Mustang was cool long before the car

Whether itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the war-winning fighter plane the P-51 Mustang or the wild horse (the car was actually named for the former), itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just plain cool.  â&#x20AC;˘ Shelby Cobra: As venomous snakes go, Cobras are wicked cool. The whole hood thing, their exotic origins and their highly concentrated venom make your ordinary rattlers and water moccasins seem, well, ordinary. It makes for one of the all-time great hood badges, too. â&#x20AC;˘ Plymouth Barracuda: As fish go, after the shark, the barracuda is arguably the most badass. Beautifully streamlined, highly aggressive and possessing a
mouthful of piranha-like teeth, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s possibly one of the most evocative names for a performance car ever. And while Mopar fans worship the way later cars were simply called the â&#x20AC;&#x2122;Cuda, we remain fans of the full name. â&#x20AC;˘ Aston Martin Vanquish: Vanquish is generally defined as follows: To utterly defeat; soundly thrash or beat; to overpower, subjugate or subdue.

Local Developer Earns Industry Accolades for Royce
Feb 13, 2014
On February 1st the Metropolitan Vancouver new home building industry held its annual celebration of excellence. Local White Rock based Developer Forge Properties turned heads as it won 4 prestigious Gold Georgie Awards® for their Thrift Avenue community called Royce. A Georgie Award is the Canadian Home Builders Association industry stamp of quality, celebrating the best of BC Construction. Royce is an exclusive collection of 87 of the most coveted luxury condominium residences in White Rock. With head-turning architecture, optimized for embracing the natural landscape with views across the Pacific Ocean, Royce is truly a local success
story. The community was designed by award winning local Ankenman Associates Architects Inc., marketed by award winning Fifth Avenue Real Estate Marketing and supported by a locally based creative team. Royce will be an appealing and proud addition to the White Rock community “The Georgie Awards reinforce the quality and value we have promised to our many buyers and we are thrilled to have the industry reinforce what we already believe!” exclaims Adriana Cikojevic, Royce Sales Manager. Cory Saran, co-lead at Forge Properties had this to say “Royce is truly the result of the hard work and devotion of
a local team. “When you’re committed to building a community specifically tailored to the locals, nothing is more exciting than the kind of overwhelm-
Royce features a community retailer of the month to help support the great places to shop and eat in White Rock. The retailer of the Month for February
ing support White Rock has given us back.” Saran goes on to explain “The building is situated to enable all residents to enjoy a warm and bright southern exposure. Homes on the upper most floors have optimal water views and have been selling at $339,900 to $1,400,000. With construction well underway Royce will be ready to enjoy in less than a year from now. As part of its local commitment
is Washington Avenue Grill - A great ocean view dining experience. In addition, local residents can receive a free regular coffee at Laura’s Coffee shop on Valentine’s Day, courtesy of Royce. The presentation centre with full display homes and a scale model of the community is located at 14855 Thrift Avenue. It is open daily noon to 5pm, though appointments are recommended.

FAMILY ANNOUNCEMENTS
FISHER, Barbara Fay Jan. 23, 1945 - Feb. 7, 2014 It is with the greatest sadness that we announce the passing of Barbara Fay Fisher at Peace Arch Hospice on Friday 7th day of February 2014. She fought cancer gallanty for 11 years. Barb is survived by Jim, her loving husband of 47 years, her daughters Joanna and Lisa and her grandchildren Audrey, Georgia and Joshua. She also leaves behind three brothers and one sister, two son-in-laws, a number of nieces & nephews and a multitude of friends from across Canada and around the world. Being married to an RCMP member caused her to move many times to different locations across Canada but was eventually able to put down roots in the Ocean Park area of Surrey where she and her family lived for the past 30 yrs. She worked for many years at the White Rock Medical Clinic. Her true passion was her garden where she spent the majority of time growing and cultivating her flowers. She also loved to travel, going on many cruises, trips to Hawaii, Europe, RVing, skiing and road trips in their vintage Corvette. She was an avid seamstress and loved to paint. Barb had a wonderful personality, was a warm and kind person who loved her home, her family and her friends. Rest in peace Barbara, you were a true Angel and we are sure you are now one, flying above us. A Celebration of Life will be held at the City of Surrey facility, Beecher Place at Crescent Beach on Sunday 13th April 2014 between 2pm-5pm. In lieu of flowers, donations to the Peace Arch Hospital Foundation or White Rock South Surrey Hospice Society would be much appreciated.
