No fifth election for MP who says he never wanted to be a ‘career politician’

Outgoing Hiebert keeps a low profile Alex Browne Staff Reporter

Conservative MP Russ Hiebert (South Surrey-White Rock-Cloverdale) is keeping mum following his surprise announcement Thursday morning that he won’t be seeking re-election for a fifth term. Hiebert spokeperson Peter Stock said the MP “will not be making further comment to any media” following the initial news release, although “he will be happy to comment on any other issues.” “It has never been my ambition to be a career

politician,” the 45-year-old – first elected to the riding in 2004 – states in the release, offering it as the primary reason for his decision. “While I am proud of the difference I have been able to make in Ottawa, both as an MP and as part of the Conservative government, it will soon be time for my family and me to move on to new challenges,” he says. Hiebert notes he intends to renew his licence to practise law, serve in some corporate directorships and pursue “other opportunities in the private sector.” The next federal election is tentatively

scheduled for Oct. 19, 2015. As a representative of the Conservative government in a riding traditionally considered a right-wing stronghold, Hiebert has not had the smoothest ride over the past decade – even within his own ranks. There have been rumblings for years among some longtime Conservatives within the community that support for Hiebert had been shaky ever since allegations he’d been “parachuted” into the riding as a candidate when he first ran for the seat. i see page 4

Coal decision delayed

Review bypasses medical officers Jeff Nagel Black Press

Fraser Health’s chief medical health officer is cautioning Port Metro Vancouver not to plow ahead with a final decision on a new coal terminal in Surrey without first letting him review new research on the project’s potential impacts on human health. Dr. Paul Van Buynder said he’s glad the port last week ordered proponent Fraser Surrey Docks to answer more questions about possible health impacts, but he is disappointed there will be no further formal comment allowed on the findings, which won’t be made public ahead of a decision or shared with the health authorities. “I believe this work should be done in consultation with health experts and in a fashion transparent to the concerned public,” Van Buynder said in an emailed statement. “It is important for the credibility of any further review and the decision outcome that the process is not undertaken by the proponent in isolation of public health.” i see page 2

Police and firefighters were called Saturday afternoon after a fire broke out at a ground-floor South Surrey apartment.

Smoking-related materials identified to be cause of blaze

Apartment fire claims life of senior An elderly woman is dead following an afternoon fire at a South Surrey apartment building last weekend. Surrey deputy fire Chief Dan Barnscher said the victim was located in a ground-floor suite at 1860 Southmere Cres. just after 4:30 p.m. Saturday and rushed to hospital. Emergency crews were alerted to the blaze

by a 911 call, and could see smoke and flames coming from the suite on arrival.

Firefighters’ night out

Inaugural fundraiser heats up

Williams Jans (wrjphoto.com) photos

The inaugural Ignite a Dream fundraiser brought nearly 300 people together Saturday for an evening of food, drinks and music. The event benefited the Surrey Fire Fighters’ program to help youth in the community.

Nearly 300 people came together for the Ignite a Dream fundraiser, to help make a difference in the lives of children in Surrey. The inaugural event, held Saturday at Semiahmoo Shopping Centre, brought in more than $20,000 for the Surrey Fire Fighters’ Charitable Society’s Ignite a Dream Educational Awards – “designed to help remove barriers and ignite the dreams of children in Surrey by providing educational opportunities…” Dozens of wine and beer exhibitors were set up alongside offerings from restaurants, allowing guests to sample from a number of menus. “It was a lovely evening with great food and great wine,” Jeri Cox said. Organizers are meeting later this week to discuss plans for next year. – Sarah Massah

Merchant concerned removing left-turn mall entrance will hurt business

Changes afoot for uptown pedestrians, drivers Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

Changes are in the wind for White Rock’s Johnston Road, with an aim to improve the safety of the uptown thoroughfare for pedestrians and motorists alike. Key steps named include the removal of a northbound, left-turn lane into Central Plaza – located just south of North Bluff Road and identified by ICBC as a hazard – and a shift south for a pedestrian crosswalk in that same area. Improvements to sidewalks and the median between North Bluff Road and Thrift Avenue are also being suggested, confirmed Coun. Al Campbell, chair of the city’s new Johnston Road reconstruction and beautification task force. Those suggestions include construction of a continuous fence on the median between traffic lights and crosswalks, to curb jaywalking. “It is extremely dangerous,” Campbell told Peace Arch News, of median turn lanes that

Change are eyed along Johnston Road. provide access to Central Plaza to traffic northbound on Johnston Road and westbound on North Bluff Road. “And (ICBC) really don’t like this crosswalk situation on Johnston Road. They’ve talked about that for years as just being an accident waiting to happen. “You’ve got two driveways going in and people crossing at the exact same location, and it’s brutal.” Council was to consider the task force’s

recommendations Monday evening, after PAN’s press deadline. At least one Central Plaza merchant said she is not in favour of the northbound leftturn lane being removed. It will only hurt business, said Jessica Theriault, owner of The Gallery Art Supplies & Framing. “This whole uptown area, so many of the businesses are moving out of the area as it is, and to limit the access to just the one corner here that’s in front of Save-On and in front of the TD Bank is ridiculous,” Theriault said Monday. “They should be trying to encourage business, not limit access.” Campbell does not expect the proposed changes to be an issue, but assured there would be “really good public consultation” before any work proceeds. Overseeing public input and feedback into the reconstruction/beautification design is the newly formed task force’s mandate. Greg St. Louis, the city’s director of engi-

neering and municipal operations, said removal of the left-turn lane is likely, “because it’s been identified by ICBC, as we know as well, as a safety concern.” With it gone and the crosswalk moved, there would be opportunity to extend the left-turn lane at the intersection, he said, noting changes would also reduce “hazardous” southbound backups and congestion in the intersection. St. Louis said Johnston Road improvements are on the city’s to-do list for this year. Regarding sidewalks, Campbell said engineers have designs well underway. The existing walkways are “totally heaved” by tree roots, he said. The end result should complement the finished-concrete look already in place by the Miramar Village and Saltaire developments, he said. “Those have to be part of the big package,” he said. “Whatever we have there, we need to blend it.”

Frustration over waiting for school building funds

Trustees prod province Sheila Reynolds Black Press

It was a year ago that Shawn Wilson, head of the Surrey Board of Education, stood in an empty field in Cloverdale, hopeful that a new, much-needed high school would soon take shape there. The provincial government – three months away from an election – had announced it was committing $10.5 million to help pay for a new, 1,200-student secondary school in the Clayton area. Today, the land remains empty. “We’re hugely frustrated as a board,” said trustee Terry Allen, noting the need for more school space in fast-growing neighbourhoods is already critical, with thousands of students attending classes in 285 portables. Allen said the province needs to fulfill its promises – and fast. “They’re already committed, big time. And still, we haven’t seen one penny,” he said In a precedent-setting move in January 2012, the district put up $5 million of its own money – with the hope government would repay it – to hire architects and get a jump-start on planning new schools. The idea was that when provincial funding was approved, construction could begin immediately. Plans are tentatively ready, but the district can’t move without provincial funding, Allen said. “It’s driving us crazy,” he said. “You know and I know that government doesn’t have a whole pile of money, but there are certain things that the government is responsible to provide.” There’s been no word on repayment of the $5 million, which was used for not only a new Clayton high school, but another in Grandview and expansions at two elementaries. South Surrey’s Grandview-area high school is

Allen believes partnering with the city or health region to make better use of the space in Grandview is a great opportunity. The City of Surrey expressed interest last spring in creating a socalled Campus of Learning-Active Living and Sport Excellence, with a recreation and aquatic centre next to the planned high school. “We’ve got to have a school, there’s no question about that, so

why can’t they come up with the funding for us to start the process?” asked Allen. “If it did have a clinic attached, or community centre, how much better is that for the public than having a school that’s only open for 12 hours a day? It’s all taxpayers’ money, no matter which way you look at it.” Even if construction began today, it would take a minimum of two years to build. Meetings are planned with the Minister of Education and Surrey MLAs to highlight the district’s concerns.

Better informed, better protected

urrey RCMP’s release last week of a security video showing an acid attack on a woman in Newton is disturbing on a number of levels. First and foremost is the horrific nature of the attack itself, in which a man threw acid at Tammy Sinclair’s face after engaging her in casual conversation behind her ATV store. Sinclair’s neck and shoulder were burned by what is believed to have been muriatic acid, and she lost some of her eyesight. To watch the casual nature of the encounter – so mundane at the start – and then see the sudden viciousness is chilling indeed. One can feel nothing but sympathy for the victim of this appalling crime. But what is also disturbing is the more than fivemonth lag in releasing the security footage. It seems the video has jogged the memory of more than one person, and police have received a spate of tips since the clip was made public Friday. One wonders how many other tips would have been forthcoming if it had been released sooner. In a time of heightened awareness of crimes against women in Surrey – the apparently random beating death of Newton hockey mom Julie Paskall still in the forefront of people’s minds – would it not have been in the public interest to highlight this attack with greater urgency, before others could potentially be at risk? Perhaps officers were respecting a desire for privacy on the part of the victim. Perhaps they were following the time-honoured protocol of holding back information that only they and the perpetrator could know. Perhaps, too, police had every expectation that other leads would produce a suspect, but the release of the video suggests earlier lines of inquiry weren’t working. It’s likely true that the public, including the media, have an imperfect understanding of police methodology. But it seems – as in the recent incident in White Rock in which an RCMP emergency-response team descended on a quiet neighbourhood in search of a suspect, only to brush off questions with a ‘nothing-to-seehere’ approach – that police have an imperfect understanding of the public’s need, and right, to know, for their own peace of mind. More than a rubbernecking nuisance, an observant public ought to be considered a resource for our forces, particularly in an age of cellphone cameras and the potential for lightningquick exchange of information online. The latest call for information on a five-monthold crime seems a further acknowledgement that police could be more in step with the public they serve.

Wildlife Federation, which runs hunter training courses. Another program, Becoming an Outdoor Woman, has helped revive hunting and camping as a family activity, he said. Growing up hunting in northeastern B.C., I was taught not to shoot anything I’m not prepared to eat. I also remember the struggles to protect caribou and other endangered prey species that at one time had B.C. biologists resorting to shooting wolves from helicopters. The reopening of grizzly bear territories is marketed to urban residents as a horrible crime against nature. In fact, it’s a sign of increasing population. Problems in B.C. wildlife these days include the fragile mountain caribou herds of the Kootenays, which have been subject to intensive management including relocation of animals. The ministry has also begun a five-year study of declining moose populations across a vast area of the Interior subject to salvage logging in the wake of the pine beetle epidemic. Vancouver media recently highlighted a grizzly hunt by NHL journeyman Clayton Stoner. Typically, U.S. enviros promoted the deceased bear by name, “Cheeky,” and photos showed its carcass stripped to the skeleton by scavengers after Stoner left with the hide, paws and head. They don’t mention that the same fate awaits animals that die of starvation or other natural causes, which increase when animals overpopulate. As with many B.C. issues, there’s a cartoon version sold to impressionable city dwellers, and then there’s the truth.

Added costs of abandonment Editor: Vacant homes have been a concern in Vancouver west side for number of years, and the wave arrived at my neighbourhood here two years ago. The situation is getting worse. I live in Chantrell area, where many multi-million acreage properties are located. More and more baby boomers chose to downsize, and they sold their homes to wealthy foreign investors, mostly from Asia with hot cash. Since many of these properties – valued at $2-7 million – are for investment purpose only, irresponsible buyers often leave the houses alone without regular landscape maintenance. The result of this can bring negative impact to the community. Garbage and yard waste brings bad feelings to those who walk by every day, especially the next-door neighbours. The entire standard of the neighbourhood is being dragged down to the worse point ever. Since the standard of the community declines, it’s hard to say it won’t affect property values. There are potential security problems; chances for break-ins rise and add risk to surrounding neighbours. Who knows what’s happening in the backyards? There is also a challenge on social fairness: empty houses are treated as merchandises on shelves, a tool to boost personal properties. Those who really want to live and work in South Surrey have less selection while buying a “real home.” I don’t know what the solution for this is – how to make these wealthy buyers develop a sense of being a responsible “homeowner,” not an “investor,” and how to fit in the Canadian’s social values. Restrictions and regulations from the government might be able to help. The City of Surrey does accept complaints regarding overgrown property landscape, but I believe it has to reach the extreme level. I hope this topic is able to be brought to people’s attention. Jenny Lo, Surrey

claim and his health records in the armed forces proved this to be true. Veterans Affairs has a process that must be followed before a former serviceman is eligible for DVA funds. The process is well supervised so no one can take advantage. My husband is very pleased with the care he has received, and so are many other veterans. As for Prime Minister Stephen Harper, I am glad he shows that our country will stand up for Israel. On Remembrance Day, we think about the tragic loss of so many people and how six million Jewish people were barbarically exterminated. It is said “never again,” and we mean it. Leone Wright, Surrey Q An open letter to MP Russ Hiebert. Your letter to the editor states that “since taking office in 2006 we have increased funding for veterans by over $4 billion.” Could you please supply a detailed breakdown year by year of the amount? Figures rounded up or down to the nearest $100,000 will suffice. I am sure Peace Arch News will gladly publish them. Wolfgang Schmitz, White Rock

Impatience a danger Editor: Last week, at about 11 a.m. Monday, I was crossing the intersection at 148 Street and 16 Avenue in South Surrey/White Rock. The light was showing the white “walk” signal, and I was halfway across when I was suddenly faced with a vehicle in my face ready to run me over. I shouted and raised my arms high, and the woman thankfully stopped. I was in awe when the driver scoffed at me, as to say “get out of my way old man.” Lady, stop and take a deep breath and slow down. You just about killed someone’s father/husband/ brother. This is so common these days. People are stressed to the max, uptight and don’t give a damn for the next person. It’s so bad driving a vehicle as well. Everyone’s in a hurry. Half of the vehicles have no rear lights. Pickuptruck drivers want control on the roads, and force smaller cars to escape the rudeness.

For what? You will have plenty of time to slow down in a cold jail cell awaiting a sentence for manslaughter. Thomas Mac Kay, White Rock

One to blame for tragedy Editor: Re: Victim’s sister doesn’t blame officer, Feb. 13. My heart bleeds for Lynné McCutcheon and her family, as well as for the victim, Marilyn Laursen. Let’s put the blame fair and square where it lies – on driver Kyle Danyliuk. Danyliuk should have stopped when told to by Const. David Bickle, but he did not. I most passionately disagree with the people that are using the officer as a scapegoat in this stupidly politically correct society that we have developed for ourselves. I take my hat off to McCutcheon for her sanity and logic in this case. After all, who was driving the car that killed Laursen? Definitely not Const. Bickle. Ivan Scott, Surrey

Caring for our veterans Editor: Re: Conflict over Veterans Affairs, Feb. 13 letters. No need for veterans to worry about being neglected by the recent closures of under-used offices, our MP, Russ Hiebert (South SurreyWhite Rock-Cloverdale), carefully explained in the letter to Peace Arch News. As for letter-writer John Fortin, who complained about the poor service he received from the Department of Veterans Affairs, his facts are perplexing.

Resident Dick Avison puts out a sign for the Peninsula’s Cold Weather Shelter whenever it is open for the night.

Sharing faith in our fellow man Editor: Care for the hungry and homeless of the Peninsula drew an unusual number of clergy together, on the occasion of the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity in late January. The Christmas memories of “no room at the inn” for the baby Jesus inspired clergy to eat together and to hear of the issues and services for those in poverty, on our affluent Peninsula. Churches may not agree on biblical interpretation, gender equality or religious language, but they can come together at their best on compassion for the poor! The lunch event was organized by the “Peninsula Homeless to Housing” (PH2H) task force, made up of individuals, service groups and churches whose mission is “to assist people who are homeless or at risk of homelessness on the South Surrey White Rock Peninsula to live in safe and appropriate housing.” Information was shared about the Cold Weather

Shelter, the low-cost community meals, the Sources Food Bank, the homeless outreach workers, and other practical resources for churches who are caring for people in poverty. There was a brief presentation on how churches and other non-profit organizations can leverage their land for low-income or subsidized housing. Opportunities for involvement and deepened service were highlighted, including last Saturday’s “Coldest Night” walk. Many of the clergy and their representatives were surprised by the statistics of poverty on the Peninsula and were impressed with what was already happening. They agreed that more individual and congregational efforts could and should be made to make a difference. After all, people are cold and hungry out there, as one person said, and they are our neighbours! Rev. Joan McMurtry, First United Church Pastor Mike Schroeder, Life Church White Rock

Parking machines at hospital targeted

Arrest in meter damage

CROSSWORD

Put Some Swing in your Step

PUZZLE NO. 694

Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

City of White Rock officials are crossing their fingers the recent arrest of two individuals will curb a rash of damage to parking meters around Peace Arch Hospital. Dan Bottrill, the city’s chief administrative officer, said 45 of the meters have been damaged since Jan. 5, in about 10 separate incidents. “It’s been a bit of an ongoing problem,” he told Peace Arch News. “It looks like they’re trying to get into the coin box.” Bottrill said police advised the city that suspects were arrested earlier this month after machines were seen being vandalized. He confirmed the targeted machines were among about 90 that posed a challenge in 2012 because they didn’t accept new-issue loonies and toonies. The city spent about $14,000 fixing the problem. Bottrill said he didn’t have a figure on the cost of addressing the recent damage, but said it was far greater than any amount the culprits responsible for it gained in stealing the coins. The machines are emptied daily, he said. “In many cases, there was no money in those meters.”

Dozens of parking meters at Peace Arch Hospital have been damaged. Bottrill described the damage to city property, and resulting cost of repairs, as “distressing,” but said it was comforting to learn the spree may finally be curbed. “We’re hopeful it won’t continue,” he said. “The fact that there was an arrest is really good.” White Rock RCMP Const. Shaileshni Molison confirmed the arrests – including of a woman “of no fixed address” – were made. Late Thursday, she announced that charges of mischief under $5,000 and theft under $5,000 have been laid against a South Surrey man in connection with a Feb. 2 meterdamage incident. William Furugori is due to appear in Surrey Provincial Court on March 5.

Surrey business community explores crime-reduction strategies

Mental health ‘number one issue’ Sarah Massah Staff Reporter

Businesses and community officials gathered in Ocean Park Friday to discuss crime prevention and crimereduction strategies in South Surrey. Surrey RCMP Chief Supt. Bill Fordy, Staff Sgt. Dan Gibbons and Coun. Barinder Rasode were on hand to answer questions from the audience at the Surrey Board of Trade’s Crime Breakfast. Topics included the state of mental health care in Surrey, the desire to create a community court and a regional police force. When asked about flaws with in the health-care system that forced those who are mentally ill back on the streets, Rasode agreed that there was work that needed to be done. “I think mental illness is the number-one issue for our community. Absolutely. Full stop,” she said, noting she hoped a representative from

Surrey RCMP Chief Supt. Bill Fordy speaks at a Surrey Board of Trade meeting last week that focused on crime reduction. Fraser Health would attend future meetings to hear the concerns. Rasode noted the city is advocating for a community court, similar to Red Hook Community Justice Center in New York. “That’s not just a model that relies on the judiciary,” she said. “When a person comes in front of a judge, an

assessment is done on why they committed the crime they committed. So if it is an addiction or mental-health issue, they are immediately mandated to programming that they actually get in the same building. “I think ultimately that should be our goal.” Surrey-White Rock MLA Gordon Hogg was one of the

two dozen or so attendees of the breakfast meeting. During the question period he asked Fordy for his opinion on regional policing. Fordy noted that increased collaboration between police following the murder investigation of Port Coquitlam murderer Robert ‘Willie’ Pickton has led to vast improvements. “The advances that have been made by law enforcement and our sharing of information, the standardization of investigation techniques, has been remarkable,” he said. Other topics included the effectiveness of Bar Watch, with Fordy noting that the RCMP is still working to gain authority to remove suspicious people from all establishments – not just suspected gang members – rather than put employees in a dangerous position. “The last thing we would want to do is put someone at risk,” he said.

Now, she hopes to share that experience with hundreds of women and girls March 8-9 in honour of Women of Aviation Worldwide Week: The Sky’s No Limit – Girls Fly Too! So far, dozens have signed up to take to the skies over Langley Regional Airport in a helicopter or airplane, including a number from White Rock and Surrey, one of the many places in the Lower Mainland that Brazier, 43, has called home. “I had my first flight about 23 years ago and I remember it well because I get the ❝When they same feeling every get into the time I go flying.

Kirsten Frazier “This event is so pilot unique in that we take people from the hardware store, the grocery store… impoverished people and every walk of life that you could imagine, so when they get into the aircraft and the aircraft goes off, they’re mesmerized.” The free event is the third that Brazier has organized, with the other two held in Yellowknife, where she worked and lived before moving to Langley this year. The aim of the event is to expose women to an industry they may otherwise feel excluded from. Brazier noted that women make up less than six per cent of commercial

So you can’t picture in your head, well hey, that could be me,” she said. “So, over time, the perception is that the trade is for guys.” While the free flights are for women and girls only, Brazier noted it’s important that the family as a whole attend to provide support for the firsttime fliers. She added there will be a number of interactive educational activities, as well as a flight-line static display

of civilian and non-civilian aircrafts, that will be open to the whole family. Flight crews will be on hand both days to answer questions and speak on their experiences. “We try to have a balance of men and women in aviation,” she said. The Langley event will be the biggest Brazier has organized and she hopes that people from all over the Lower Mainland sign up and attend. “When I was in Yellowknife and we took off with our first load of 20 girls and came back, it was amazing. The girls got out of the aircraft and they were beaming and it just affected the whole crowd,” she said. “And people like me, we beam every time we get airborne.” Space is limited and preregistration required.

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

Mrs. M. tries Cold Laser Therapy for her Knee Pain Mrs. M. suffered from ever more debilitating levels of pain in both of her knees for a long time, caused by the increasingly common condition of osteoarthritis. She was having great difficulty walking for longer periods of time or going up and down stairs. Sleeping through the night had become a problem, because the pain would wake her. Even simple movements like getting up after having been seated for a while (watching television or having dinner) had become extremely painful. It came to be normal for her to rely on painkillers to help her function on a day to day basis. Over the years, she had undertaken numerous therapies and treatments to stem the tide of ever increasing pain without much success. Even full knee replacement surgery on her left knee only helped to a degree, leaving her with discomfort in the replaced knee even well after the expected post surgical healing time. When Mrs. M. first visited us at Solaj Wellness Centre, she enquired about Cold Laser Therapy and was wondering if the treatments might help in reducing the pain in her right knee, and maybe even prevent the need for knee replacement surgery in the future. After finding out some more details about Cold Laser Therapy, she decided that it was well worth her time and money to give this treatment a try. In her thinking, the upside of avoiding much more invasive and therefore risky surgery was significant and as she had found out on her other knee, replacement surgery wasn’t a guaranteed full success either. After the first four treatment sessions, Mrs. M. was experiencing significantly less discomfort in her knee and she could finally sleep throughout the night without being woken up by pain. And after just two weeks of treatment sessions, she stopped taking pain medication altogether. Having had to take painkillers on a daily basis for years and putting up with their unpleasant side effects, being able to discontinue her daily painkiller regimen was another true milestone moment for her. As she continued her treatments, Mrs. M.’s knee continued to show meaningful improvement. Now she was able to take longer walks with her husband along the beach. And she even started to ride the recumbent bike to help regain the strength in her knee. After 15 treatments over an 8 week period, Mrs. M. was able to stop her treatments. She had virtually no knee pain, had continued to stay off pain medication and was able to become more active than she had been in years. When Mrs. M. came back to Solaj two months after her last treatment for a check-up and “refresher” treatment (commonly suggested for those with significant arthritis), she continued to have no pain in her knee and she has been able to keep up with her new, increased level of physical activity. A little while later, we received this email from Mrs. M: y painful s with extremel number of year a r acement te pl re af nt ee de kn very despon one complete d an e ur did not ed at “I had become oc ic pr ritic knee th One arthroscop ely painful arth m tion in tre ica ex ed arthritic knees. e m on in d to deal with prescription pa ue in on t nt en co I nd r pe te la d de g and remaine require replacin re sic level. ba ry ve a j Wellness Cent on n itted by the Sola order to functio ld bm ou su r w it pe at pa l th ca e article was article in our lo ything int I took from th an po Then I read an try n ai to g m e in ill Th n.

Surrey team golden at provincials

Sonics strong The host team dominated at B.C. Synchronized Swimming Championships last weekend in Surrey, winning gold medals in every team event. The B.C. Aquasonics won in the senior, junior ‘A’ and 13-15A team events, as well as in the 13-15 combo category. Olivia Zawadiuk won gold in the senior solo event, and Seray Sefayi of Surrey won a silver medal in 13-15 solo. Sefayi, Anna Seiler, Madyson Stickley and

103 total medals i from page 17 Fraser Valley head coach Al Wozney. “So a lot of that pressure was on us. The girls really came together in the second game against Vancouver Island. And that shootout win propelled us through the next two games.” On ice of a different kind, Fraser Valley’s boys curling team – skipped by Cloverdale’s Tyler Tardi – won bronze. The Tardi rink lost just once, but it was during a semifinal match Saturday, 6-3 against Zone 4’s Brayden Carpenter. In the bronze game, Team Tardi made short work of Zone 2 (Thompson-Okanagan), winning 9-3 in six ends. Tardi had a strong start, scoring two in the first end. Then after holding the Zone 2 team to one in the second end, the Cloverdale resident tacked on four points in the third medal for a 6-1 lead after just three

ends of play. “There’s less pressure when you’re not playing for the gold medal,” said Tardi. “The two teams in the final deserve to be there, they were playing very well. Bronze is what we deserved.” Rounding out medals won on ice, Surrey figure skater Benjamin Mangabat won bronze in the pre-novice men competition. In gymnastics, Surrey’s Sage Bishop-Beaurone won two gold medals – in uneven bars and vault – and added a bronze all-around medal, while the Valley’s Special Olympics basketball team also picked up a bronze medal. The hoops squad featured Surrey players Scott Laroue, Tracy Payne, Scott Stewart and Jaspreet Warach. The Zone 3 netball team – which featured Cyrille Butac and Simran Grewal – also added a bronze medal. – with files from Rick Kupchuk

AUTO FINANCING

ARIES

LIBRA

Aries, you want more than you can acquire this week and your desires may lead you astray. It is important to exercise self-restraint, even if you get a thrill from living on the edge.

Libra, it may seem like you are being led astray by one thing after another, when all you want is to focus on one task at a time. Find a way to block out any and all distractions.

TAURUS

SCORPIO

Taurus, make a concerted effort to improve your focus in the weeks ahead. There is much to lose if you cannot tackle the tasks at hand, particularly at the workplace.

Scorpio, work on a creative project with a sweetheart or friend early in the week. Ideas will flow easily and your imaginations will soar together. It is a productive pairing.

GEMINI

SAGITTARIUS

Gemini, it's unlike you to slow down, so don't be surprised when friends start looking at you curiously after you take your foot off the gas. Your free spirited nature will soon return.

This is not your week to mix love and money, Sagittarius. In fact, keep the two as separate as possible, and exercise caution before lending anyone money.

NOTICE TO CREDITORS AND OTHERS NOTICE is hereby given that creditors and others, having claims against the estate of Johannes Hermanus Schryvers formerly of #198 - 1840 - 160th St, Surrey, B.C., V4A 4X4, deceased, are hereby required to send the particulars thereof to the undersigned Executor, c/o Highpoint Law, 308-2626 Croyden Dr., Surrey, B.C., V3S 0S8, on or before March 13, 2014, after which date the estate’s assets will be distributed, having regard only to the claims that have been received. Caroline M Klein & Johannes H Schryvers Jr, Executors.

Capricorn, you want to play outside of the rules this week. You normally like to follow a relatively traditional course, so this catches others off guard.

Cancer, find a routine that works for you and then stick with it. There is no need to reinvent the wheel, and when actions become automatic, you can focus on other things.

AQUARIUS

LEO

You don't always have the patience to stick with the same routine, Aquarius. That means others cannot expect you to conform to their whims if they want you as a friend.

A need for attention could get the better of you, Leo. A little humility goes a long way and can alter others' perceptions of you. You may end up being seen in a more positive light.

PISCES

VIRGO

Pisces, you may need to sacrifice some security for a chance to have a memorable experience. Do something out of the ordinary.

Virgo, you can differentiate between right and wrong, but your judgement might be off this week. Rely on your intuition, but don't make any big decisions without first thinking carefully.
