Court, jail await B.C. drivers who don’t pay U.S. traffic tickets Suspended licences make driving a crime by Jeff Nagel A GROWING number of B.C. motorists are getting a nasty surprise after ignor-

ing speeding tickets issued in Washington state because they don’t think the long arm of Uncle Sam can reach them. Blaine city administrators say many Canadians are regularly appearing in court there to face criminal charges of driving while under licence suspension that stem from unpaid traffic tickets. They say the typical case involves a B.C. motorist who gets caught speeding in Washington and ignores the ticket because they think they’re immune to U.S. enforcement. But about three months after the ticket is issued – if it’s not paid or disputed – state authorities declare that driver’s B.C. licence suspended in Washington. The next time the driver crosses the border they’re nabbed instantly by U.S. authorities for driving while suspended. Blaine Deputy Court Administrator Raylene King said the courthouse there is seeing a “rash of Canadians” coming as a result. The court docket in Blaine last Wednesday featured 11 arraignments of accused making first appearances, nine of them for driving while suspended. Blaine immigration lawyer Len Saunders arrives to the same scene each Wednesday morning – a courthouse parking lot jammed with Canadians arriving to face the music. “They get a speeding ticket and they blow it off thinking, ‘the Americans can’t do anything because Len Saunders I’m a Canadian’,” said Saunders. “Wrong idea.” The typical penalty there for driving while suspended is a $500 or $600 fine on top of the unpaid ticket, although the maximum is $1,000 and up to 90 days in jail. For one Surrey resident, an unpaid $150 speeding ticket in the U.S. nearly

A HANDFUL of residents from Surrey and Delta have been named among this year’s recipients of the B.C. Community Achievement Awards. The awards recognize people who have made significant contributions through their jobs or volunteer work. Morgan Leung, a Grade 12 student from Delta, was chosen for her dedication to helping others. She is not only a top youth fundraiser for the B.C. and Yukon Heart and Stroke Foundation, but volunteers to teach ballet and has helped develop several charitable programs in her schools. Surrey’s Lawrence Haiducu was recognized for his dedication to community. He is chair of UBC Medicine’s Wellness Initiative Network, founder of a project to educate Grade 10 students about sun protection and a past leader of Harmony in Action, a cultural support group. Amrik Singh Aulakh, who’s also a Surrey resident, became a volunteer of the Surrey Crime Leung Prevention Society in 1998, active on Citizens on Patrol, Counter Attack and Speed Attack. Since 2007, Aulakh has served as an auxiliary constable with Surrey Haiducu RCMP. Delta’s Jason Min was recognized for his contribution of pharmacy practice and education in B.C. He and Larry Leung co-founded Aulakh Clinicare Pharmacists and are lecturers at UBC’s Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences who have developed innovative patient care service programs working together with other Min health care providers and particularly, within First Nations communities. An independent advisory council selects the Community Achievement Award winners. This year there were 34 winners. “As British Columbians, we are inspired by those in our communities who make a difference by their efforts,” said Premier Christy Clark. The recipients will be recognized at an event in Victoria on April 29, where each will receive a certificate and medallion designed by artist Robert Davidson.

Nexus pass: Can be suspended for 10 years

From page 1

four years ago has turned into $1,500 legal run-around. In May of 2010, Jasraj Waraich was issued citation for speeding in Washington state, which he did not pay. Although he received no notification in the mail of any sort of license suspension, while crossing in the border three years later in January 2013, he was pulled aside by U.S. border guards and told because of his unpaid infraction, his B.C. driver’s licence had been suspended in the U.S. He was immediately issued a US$500 fine and sent back to Canada. Luckily he had another driver in the car and his vehicle was not towed. ‘I had no idea they could do that,” said a surprised Waraich. “It had been three years and I had a Nexus pass and I cross the border weekly because I have family in Washington state and California.” After retaining an

American lawyer, it was determined that no previous notice of suspension had been sent and all the charges were dismissed. Although he was repaid all the fines, he still had to incur the cost of a lawyer. But the pain doesn’t end there for many hapless B.C. drivers. Because driving while suspended is a criminal misdemeanour, the conviction means instant loss of the Nexus card that gives many British Columbians speedy access over the border. Waraich is now in a fight to get his Nexus pass reinstated. “I had to get a new immigration lawyer more familiar with Nexus card issues,” he said. “And we’ve had to appeal to the ombudsman in Vermont and it’s been over a year and I still haven’t heard anything.” Saunders said “Canadians have no clue what problems they can get into at the border if they fail to pay a speeding ticket.” He ties the increase

Saunders doesn’t defend criminal cases, but typically gets hired by Canadians desperate to reinstate Nexus passes. “That’s what a lot of people are worried about – having their Nexus cards gone.”

It’s possible to avoid or appeal the Nexus loss, but Saunders said in many cases the card is gone for 10 years. Saunders said suspended drivers who come back to Blaine for court have to make sure they don’t drive them-

selves across the border or they’ll be nailed for a second offence. There’s no disputing that they were driving at the border because automated cameras photograph drivers as they roll up to the booths. Solo drivers busted at the border typically get towed back to Canadian soil because it’s illegal for them to even drive that far. An even worse fate awaits those who ignore the court summons for driving while suspended and then try to cross the border again – regardless of whether they’re driver or passenger. “A warrant for their arrest gets issued,” Blaine prosecutor Rajeev Majumdar said. “And then when they cross the border they actually get arrested and taken to jail.” Saunders knows one B.C. woman who was handcuffed at the Highway 15 truck crossing and held overnight in jail on a four-year-old speeding ticket that had morphed into a driv-

ing-while-suspended charge. By the time the husband hired a U.S. lawyer and bailed his wife out of jail, the cost of dealing with what had been a $124 ticket

“Ignoring (a ticket) isn’t the correct option. It’s going to come back to bite you.” Raylene King had soared to $4,000. “He was furious, he couldn’t believe it,” Saunders said. “I’d be terrified if it was me,” said King, who encourages Canadians to dispute a ticket they consider unjust. “Ignoring it isn’t the correct option. It’s going to come back to bite you.” – with files from Evan Seal

Legislation tabled by the B.C. government Wednesday will extend the term of office to four years as well as tightening rules for campaign financing and advertising. Third-party advertisers will also have to register before promoting candidates, and financial disclosures will have to be filed with Elections BC within 90 days of the vote. Community, Sport and Cultural Development Minister Coralee Oakes said the new rules have been developed in consultation with the Union of B.C. Municipalities, and that discussion determined that an outright ban on anonymous donations is too strict. The disclosure rule will also apply to third-party advertisers, who will have to report sources of donations more than $50 and identify themselves in advertising. Campaign spending limits won’t be imposed until after the elections scheduled for Nov. 15, 2014. Oakes said that measure is complex because the variety of

The legislation also moves the date of local elections from November to October, but that won’t take effect until 2018. UBCM president Rhona Martin, a director of the Columbia Shuswap Regional District, said the move to four-year terms is not a “perfect solution,” but it was supported by

a majority of delegates at last year’s convention. In previous votes, some small community representatives said even three-year terms may be too long for a time-consuming commitment with little pay. The change in reporting rules creates a large task of compliance and enforcement for Elections BC. Oakes said the Elections BC will present its proposed costs to the legislature committee that determines budgets for all independent officers, including the Auditor General.

Six years jail sought for pair who killed man in Surrey Shakib Shakib and Brandon Nandan burned body in Burnaby by Sheila Reynolds FAMILY AND friends of

Burnaby grad Branson Sanders wept and embraced one another as they listened to the grisly details of the 20-yearold’s death in court on Friday afternoon. Sanders, they heard, was lured to a house in Surrey in late November 2011 by two acquaintances, where he was ambushed and fatally stabbed with a machete. His charred remains were discovered days later in a Burnaby park by a man walking his dog. Much of his body had third-degree burns and he had to be identified through fingerprints. The coroner could not determine the cause of death, but the lack of soot in his airway suggested he was burned after he died, the court heard. A sentencing hearing was held in B.C. Provincial Court in Surrey on Friday for Brandon Nandan and Shakib Shakib, who both pleaded guilty to manslaughter late last year for their role in Sanders’ death. Many members of both the killers’ and victim’s families attended the emotional hearing. Crown counsel told Judge Michael Hicks Nandan was a drug dealer and that cellphone records show he and Shakib talked about hurting Sanders in the days prior to his death. It isn’t clear what instigated the dispute. In a text message to Shakib, Nandan said he

A great read.

Branson Sanders was “playing the buddy/ buddy role” with Sanders and hoped he would pass out so they could carry out their plan. That didn’t happen, however, and instead, Shakib hid in the basement of Nandan’s Surrey home and when Sanders went downstairs, Shakib thrust a machete at him. A witness, said Crown, said they heard Sanders say, “Please bro, I’m gonna bleed out.” Neither Shakib or Nandan tried to help him. There was little foren-

sic evidence, said Crown, because the accused had not only burned the body, but also removed bloodied flooring and repaired damaged walls. A recording of Branson’s mom, Hannele Sairanen, reading her victim impact statement was played in court, in which she spoke of her “beautiful, precious” only child she welcomed into the world July 27, 1991. She talked about the isolation she’s felt during the three years it’s taken for her son’s case to get to this point and the cruel and senseless manner in which his life was “snuffed out.” “As a mother, I feel bruised, beaten and forever scarred.” Sairanen said though her son had his own problems, he always showed concern for his friends and family. “The impact he made on our lives is immeasurable,” she said. “There is no moving on.”

In a joint sentencing submission, both Crown and defence lawyers recommended a six-year sentence each for Shakib and Nandan. With one-to-one credit for time served, Nandan, who is not currently in custody, would have about five-and-a-half years of his sentence remaining, while Shakib, who is in custody, would have about five years, four months remaining. While Shakib chose not to say anything in court Friday, Nandan stood and apologized, facing Sanders’ family and friends through the glass of the high-security courtroom. “I really, really am sorry,” said Nandan. Ian Donaldson, Nandan’s defence lawyer, noted his client was 18 at the time of Branson’s death and expressed not only remorse, but an understanding of the pain he’s caused. “Branson was his

friend – he was a good friend,” said Donaldson. Shakib’s lawyer, Jordan Allingham, said though he was planning on fighting with Sanders, his client had no intention to use the machete, only to scare the victim with it. In a letter to the court, Shakib said he was “truly sorry from the bottom of his heart” and was hoping to learn from his jail sentence and use it as a starting point to turn his life around. Shakib, who had just turned 19 at the time of the murder, was raised in Delta, but graduated from Burnaby Mountain Secondary. Shakib and Nandan will be sentenced April 10. A third man, who cannot be named because he was a young offender at the time of Sanders’ death, also pleaded guilty to obstructing justice in the case. His sentencing is scheduled for April 15. sreynolds@surreyleader.com

POLITICS

RAESIDE

Misuse of funds warrants much more than a shrug

t’s not just about Nigerian inheritance schemes, or people stealing credit cards or financial information. Questionable activities touch each and every taxpayer whose hard-earned dollars are siphoned by politicians for unjustified “expenses.” If we have learned anything from last year’s Senate expense scandals, and the recent revelations concerning former Alberta premier Alison Redford’s travel expenses, it’s that this is a problem that crosses all party lines and involves all political stripes. A recent example being publication of details of the vacation expenses billed by NDP MLA Jenny Kwan to the Portland Hotel Society, a not-for-profit organization already under fire for its expenses record. Kwan’s subsequent repayment of the $35,000 sum was a reason for rejoicing on the right. That jubilation has been tempered somewhat by the revelation of $5,500 in travel expenses billed by B.C. legislature Speaker Linda Reid, a B.C. Liberal MLA, for her husband – so that he could join her on a trip to South Africa. In addition to issuing a public apology, Reid has also repaid the sum in total. NDP MLA Raj Chouhan also brought his spouse on the South Africa trip, to the tune of $2,200, which he too has now repaid. Whatever the mitigating circumstances of each case, none of them inspires confidence in our democratic system. Abusing public trust and dipping into public funds should be indefensible, no matter the sputtering rants of ideologues on the left or the right, who always claim whatever the other party did was more heinous, or worse, simply shrug off their misdeeds the the retort that it’s always been done this way. Oddly, when it comes to political impropriety, our society long ago suspended any notion of justice or punishment that automatically applies to scammers in any other walk of life. With politicians going on to reap the rewards of generous pensions, lucrative posts and valuable consultancies, it’s no wonder so many average Canadians shrug their shoulders and walk in the other direction when urged to exercise their democratic rights. Our policital leaders must set better examples. We should demand it.

The Island, South Coast and Okanagan, which produce 85 per cent of B.C.’s total farm revenue on 10 per cent of protected land, retains its strict anti-development rules. In the much larger area Bennett likes to call “Beyond Hope,” non-farm uses will be considered to help maintain the many economically marginal farmers. This is the Interior, Kootenay and North, where development pressure is mostly an urban myth. In remote areas, ALR diktats with no relation to reality are routinely ignored. Political critics were quick to call this a B.C. Liberal hidden agenda to pave the ALR for their developer pals. Certainly neither party’s 2013 platform talked about the ALR, although B.C.

Huntington is livid about the legislation, which has no effect on loss of farmland in her constituency. The growing federally regulated port supersedes provincial laws, and the Tsawwassen First Nation is growing a big shopping centre on its treaty land. Aboriginal entrepreneurs are also starting to force big-box development on southern Vancouver Island, home of the purest of the pure left. This is where farmers can’t even protect themselves against deer. The most damning charge is that the six regional ALR panels now in place are open to corruption under new rules. Panel members have always been cabinet appointments, but currently they have to be from outside the region so they are less likely to hand out exemptions to their friends. That is certainly something to keep an eye on. So is the status of B.C. farms, where the average farmer age is 56 and rising, and half of farms have income less than $10,000 a year.

It’s been more than six months since I settled in the heart of downtown Whalley and I want everyone to know about my 10 favourite things about my new ’hood. 1. I can go for a pleasant and peaceful walk in beautiful Holland Park. That’s when I actually get my lazy self to the park. 2. I can take a friend to Central City mall and grab a coffee while relaxing on the nice sofa chairs in the mall. This is great if I have a blind coffee date with some intelligent student from SFU Surrey. Doesn’t happen often. A blind date that is. 3. I can actually walk to Surrey Memorial Hospital’s emergency department if neces-

sary. This is great since I don’t have to worry about paying for parking. 4. I can listen to interesting guest speakers at the stunning new Central City library. This sure beats actually reading a book, unless I wrote it, of course. 5. I am blessed to have three SkyTrain stations in downtown Surrey. An extension down King George Boulevard would be nice so I can chill with my friends in Newton or Little Punjab. 6. Speaking of Newton, I am a short ride away from Strawberry Hill Cinemas. This is actually a major benefit as I am a Bollywood movie addict. 7. I can get some fresh air in the nearby Green Timbers Urban Forest. A one-time visit was enough but I am glad I know it’s there. Green

Timbers’ trees are the lungs of Surrey. 8. I can pump weights, do cardio, swim, or ice skate at the centrally located North Surrey Recreation Centre. I visualize doing all this while sitting and soaking in the Jacuzzi. 9. I am proud to have a competent and visionary mayor like Dianne Watts who has put Surrey on the map. She is a shining star compared to some big-city mayors in Canada – not to mention any names. 10. Last, I am so happy I can afford my own beautiful condo with my own private secure underground parking spot adjacent to the SkyTrain. In Vancouver you pay more to rent and you don’t even own the place.

of changes over the years. Our population has increased by 25 per cent over the past 10 years alone – from 394,000 to 501,000, and we have to make room and homes for all those new residents. A drive that used to take 10 minutes now takes 30. What were once fields of grass, bushes and trees are now shopping centres, car dealerships, homes and parking lots. My friends just received a notice from the Surrey Planning and Development Department announcing that much of the green space near their home is slated to be developed into hous-

I don’t know what will happen to the creek that runs through it, but I do know that it won’t be as clean as it has been, and the salmon that spawn there every winter will probably disappear forever.

nose broken by a passenger during an unprovoked attack in Surrey on Wednesday evening. Transit Police say the incident happened at around 8 p.m. The driver had picked up a man and woman at 72 Avenue and 132 Street in Newton. The man was agitated as he boarded the bus, complaining about not being able to smoke and asking for a free ride. The driver, say police, asked the pair to sit down and carried on with his route toward Guildford.

There were several witnesses to the attack, many of whom helped the driver after he was punched. Another Surrey bus driver was assaulted in early February. He was also punched and had his glasses taken. A suspect in that incident was arrested within days. Transit Police launched a campaign Monday called “Don’t Touch The Operator targeting bus driver assaults and harassment.

According to police, the man then started “verbally challenging” the transit worker, who did not respond, and as the bus pulled into the left turn lane at 72 Avenue and 144 Street, the male passenger stood up and punched the driver in the face. He and the woman then fled the scene. The driver was taken to hospital and suffered from an apparent broken nose, has blurred vision, a bruised jaw and loose teeth. The suspect is described as a muscular white male in his mid-20s to early-30s, between 6’2” and 6’4”, with short bleached blond hair, clean shaven, with a large tattoo on the back of his neck.

pleaded guilty to stealing merchandise from a Surrey store and was sentenced to 21 days in jail. Two weeks prior, on Jan. 28, he had already been sentenced to three months in jail and three years probation for breaching a peace bond. Court records show he is no longer in custody. B.C. Corrections issued a warning when he got out of jail last June after serving his full

sentence for the rape because he’s still considered a high-risk offender and has a varied and violent criminal history. It was July 1991 when he forced a summer student working at Abbotsford’s Trethewey House to remove her clothes and sexually assaulted her. He then drove her across the U.S. border, where he assaulted her again before tying her to a tree and fleeing.

Conditions of his release include not possessing knives or any other weapons, keeping the peace and reporting regularly to a probation officer. His criminal record also includes theft, break and enter and possession of stolen property. According to court files, he has gone by the aliases Brett Alen Stevens, Raymond Lee Carlton and Biran Peele in the past.

Do You Have a Personal Injury Case? — SIMON J. HOLMAN, LAWYER, STEPHENS & HOL MAN

If you have been injured in an accident caused by someone else, you may have a right to compensation through a personal injury claim. Personal injury law hinges on the concept of negligence: if someone else failed to act in a reasonably safe manner and you were injured as a result, that person can be held accountable for your losses. However, you must be able to prove that the other party was negligent in order to successfully win compensation in your case. Generally speaking, your personal injury claim must meet three basic requirements in order to be valid: • The responsible party was negligent – For example, if a driver crashed into your vehicle because they ran a red light, he or she would be considered negligent under the law. • The responsible party’s negligence caused you to be injured – You must demonstrate that the other party’s reckless behavior led to your injuries. • Your personal injury resulted in damages – If your injury resulted in medical bills, lost income, physical pain and suffering, emotional trauma, etc, these are all considered damages that you can be ICBC & INJURY CLAIMS compensated for.

ers will be built at South Surrey Athletic Park, the City of Surrey has announced. The site, part of a pilot project, will be located on the “service access road” that begins near the parking lot and runs south between the baseball diamonds and running track, which is in the southwestern corner of the athletic park, at 14600 20 Ave. Surrey’s manager of parks, Owen Croy, estimated the grade of the pathway to be “about 6.5 per cent,” which is especially good for boarders who are new to the sport. The location’s proximity to public transit is also noted. The city will add barriers on either side of the pathway – which is already paved – to ensure it does not intersect with any other walking paths in the area, Croy said. Appropriate signage will also be posted. He estimated the cost of the project to be “a few thousand dollars” and said he would “like to get it up and running in the next six weeks,” though he added that timeline is not definite. “It’s a work in progress, but it enga-

ges youth, and we think it’s an excellent way to get (young longboarders) off the streets, where there are safety concerns.” Croy believes the longboarding project would be the first of its kind in B.C. Longboarding – similar to skateboarding, except the board’s dimensions and wheels are bigger – has become a popular sport in recent years. And with its growth in popularity has come increased concerns about the safety of boarders, pedestrians and motorists. “It’s very unfortunate but there have been some tragic incidents in other places in recent years,” Croy said. He said the impetus for the project came from the local longboarding community, members of which had recently made a presentation to the city’s Parks, Cultrue and Recreation Committee. “We have had a growing interest in longboarding from the community, and we are responding to that interest,” he said. The pilot project will be monitored over the summer, and if deemed a success, the city would be open to creating more sites where the activity would be permitted.

Deal for truckers Port reopens after agreement is reached by Tom Fletcher TRUCK DRIVER representatives and

provincial government officials shook hands Wednesday evening on a deal to get picket lines down at Port Metro Vancouver Thursday morning. The United Truckers Association and Unifor representatives joined Premier Christy Clark and Jobs Minister Shirley Bond at the B.C. legislature to announce the deal, which addresses pay and wait time issues. The B.C. government will abandon back-to-work legislation to impose a 90-day cooling off period, along with stiff fines for Unifor-organized truckers who had been poised to continue their strike in defiance. More than 1,000 other non-union independent owner-operators represented by the United Trucking Association who weren’t covered by the legislation had been under threat of port access permit terminations by Port Metro Vancouver.

The federal government committed to increase trip rates by 12 per cent within 30 days, with a temporary rate hike to take effect after a week of normal operations. “What changed today was a willingness to listen,” said Unifor president Jerry Dias, adding that he had arrived in Victoria to announce a plan to defy the back-to-work law that was being debated. Federal mediator Vince Ready returned to B.C. Thursday to work out the details of the settlement. Port Metro Vancouver has agreed to consult with truckers on the licensing system to control the number of trucks calling at the port and get the multiple trucking companies to comply with rate and employment agreements. A wait time fee of $50 per trip is part of the agreement. The strike began with non-union drivers Feb. 26 and broadened to unionized drivers March 10. tfletcher@blackpress.ca

More TransLink power for region’s mayors

They save you money. AND SO DO WE. Call PARKINSON’S HEATING LTD. for a high-efficiency Lennox® home comfort system.

Move restores some control taken away in 2008 by Jeff Nagel

METRO VANCOUVER mayors are getting more power over TransLink in a legislated reform of the transportation authority unveiled Thursday by Transportation Minister Todd Stone. He introduced two bills in the legislature Thursday that aim to satisfy mayors’ demands for more control over TransLink spending, a precondition for their cooperation in a regional referendum promised by the government on new taxes to finance transit expansion. “They’re getting the governance improvements they’ve asked for,” Stone said. “They will be accountable for the decisions they make as a result.” The Metro mayors’ council will now have power to approve TransLink’s long-term 30-year regional transportation strategy and a new 10-year investment plan, which can be frequently revised. Until now the appointed board of professionals that meet behind closed doors has set all plans and priorities, leaving the mayors only to approve or reject increases in property, fuel and parking taxes to pay for improvements. The mayors’ council also takes

control over fare increases, decisions on the sale of major assets and oversight of TransLink’s complaints process – all previous duties of the now-defunct TransLink Commissioner. The commissioner’s office and its nearly $1-million budget is folded into the mayors’ council. Mayors will also now control pay levels for the TransLink executive and board of directors. The professional TransLink board retains day-to-day control of TransLink operations. But the province will now directly appoint two directors that can represent the government’s views, joining the other directors who are appointed by the mayors council after being vetted and short-listed by a provincially controlled screening panel. Stone said the province remains committed to a regional referendum before new fees or taxes are used to expand Metro’s transportation system. The plebiscite is to happen no later than June 2015, or else after on a future municipal election date. Mayors have been assembling a list of the region’s transportation expansion priorities, expected to include projects like light rail lines

in Surrey, rapid transit extension on Broadway and major bus system upgrades. But they say they’re waiting on the province to clearly signal which new taxes or tolling sources it would approve. Stone gave no further guidance on which new “funding levers” – such as a vehicle levy, a regional sales tax or regional tolling – Victoria could accept. Mayors’ council chair Richard Walton said the province has “now given us a lot of responsibility for the politically difficult stuff, but not the one thing from the very beginning we requested.” Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts called the governance reforms a step in the right direction, but said new revenue sources are also critical. “If you’ve got the governance changes but you don’t have the sustainable funding model, it will be doomed to fail,” Watts said. “One’s useless without the other.” The changes partly unwind the last big revamp of TransLink by former minister Kevin Falcon, who eliminated the old board of elected mayors and councillors in 2008 after calling it a parochial “disaster circus.”

Dave Rogers approached the owners of the Coastal Climbing Centre in Newton about offering the space for an evening of climbing, with all proceeds going to The Ride to Conquer Cancer benefitting the BC Cancer Foundation. “I have a friend of mine whose son has leukemia. I like cycling and climbing and I thought you know, why not?” said Rogers. “And really that’s how it all started.” Rogers took part in the Ride to Conquer Cancer last year but some paperwork issues at the border didn’t allow him to complete the two-day ride all the way to Seattle, so he ended up riding the equivalent mileage (250 kilometers) in Canada. But with all his ducks now in a row, he plans on completing the ride this year. As for the climbing fundraiser, Rogers spoke to his friends who own the Coastal Climbing Centre and asked if he could rent a section of the gym for the night, explaining he would donate all the money Dave Rogers made to the cancer foundation in their name. “They thought that was a great idea.” The climbing wall will be be available for two hours with belayers (climbers who use safety ropes to make sure you don’t fall) on site throughout the night. “Rock climbing is a sport that not a lot of people try,” said Rogers. “It’s a super fun sport and a lot safer than people think. Bike riding is much more dangerous.” The Climbing for a Cure event is $20 and takes place Sunday, April 13 from 5-7 p.m. at Coastal Climbing Centre, located at #202-7728 128 St. It is open to all ages and no previous experience is necessary. Rogers is also looking for people to donate door prizes for the event. For more information, contact Dave Rogers at 604-785-4758 or email bmynbr@hotmail.com

The collaborative composition the pair of 21-yearolds submitted for their third-year children’s literature class was so original instructor Dr. Sue Ann Cairns hadn’t seen anything like it in more than three decades of teaching. Tiu and Kumar, accomplished rappers who go by the names Kalvonix and Big Love, respectively, compiled an eight-track album of rap songs called The Stuff Dreams Are Made Of, a music video and a conventional written essay. Their project explored children’s literature, including the classics Alice in Wonderland, Peter Pan, The Giving Tree and Charlotte’s Web, and contemporary young adult novels such as What I Saw and How I Lied, Skim and Tweaked. They used rap to reinterpret the books, and in the end delivered a final submission that, according to Cairns, was alternately “playful, serious and poignant.” Their work has just been published in the University of Texas’s online journal, TheJUMP: The Journal for Undergraduate Multimedia Projects. “They helped me and members of our class get inside the texts we were studying in fresh, creative ways,” Cairns said. Though rap is sometimes controversial for its use of explicit and sometimes suggestive lyrics, Kumar and Tiu wanted to showcase rap as a thoughtful form of art. “We’re always looking for different ways to branch out and this was an opportunity to prove that rap doesn’t always have to be so negative,” said Tiu. “One of the reasons we wanted to do this project was to give rap a new voice,” Kumar added. Tiu has been rapping for nine years (he was featured in The Leader when he was in high school in 2009) and has produced more than 20 solo albums using just his laptop, a studio microphone and recording software. He performed for a crowd of 12,000 at the Yaletown Olympic venue during the 2010 Winter Olympics, and in Surrey at the Sapphire Gala in support of the Child Development Foundation of B.C. Kumar has been a creative writer since childhood, making the transition into rapping in 2009. He has released one solo album and two collaborative pieces. He is also an avid writer of slam poetry and spoken word, some one which has been published in The Runner, Kwantlen’s newspaper. Together, the English majors recently created a seminar for high school and university students on the benefits of self-expression through rap, poetry and spoken word titled “Frontier Poetics.” To listen to The Stuff Dreams are made of, check http://bit.ly/1p1wIfRw

NORTH DELTA native Graeme Truelove

in 1988, becoming the first openly gay MP). “It was a leap into the unknown,” Robinson told Truelove. “It was just the most liberating moment you can imagine.” Truelove, now an Ottawa resident who works as a non-partisan procedural clerk in the House of Commons, took a year of unpaid leave to complete more than 100 interviews for his book about Robinson. The tale is about much more than politics, exploring the former politician’s difficult childhood, his realization of his sexuality and his eventual bipolar diagnosis. Truelove said it took some convincing to have Robinson agree to the intrusive process of a biography. “I’m not surprised that it took him a little while to come around to the idea, but eventually he did, and he trusted me to do it.” B.C.

Well, lookie here. One minute you have a perfectly good Blue Box recycling program. The next, something new and rather questionable is being put in its place. And they thought they’d get away with it right under your nose, without telling you or asking your opinion. That’s deﬁnitely not democracy in action. The BC Government, elected by us to represent our best interests, has decided to ofﬂoad the costs of recycling to big multi-national corporations. To implement this new plan, they’ve set up an association that doesn’t really seem to hold the environment, local jobs, or the municipalities that run the Blue Box program, close to its heart.

Perhaps that’s why some of our local elected ofﬁcials are using the word “scam” to describe how the new program is being set up. It’s also perhaps why several of BC’s municipalities refuse to jump on board. That’s gotta tell you something. Now it’s your turn to let Premier Christy Clark know what you think. Contact her today to say that dismantling an already-working recycling program to replace it with something that few people think will be as good, is a bad idea.

What’s going on here?

Svenson breaks a record Surrey golfer sets career wins mark at Barry University by Nick Greenizan TO SUGGEST Earl Marriott grad Adam Svensson is merely having a good university golf season is something of an understatement. And if there was any doubt of that, the 20-year-old Barry University sophomore quashed it last weekend in Eatonton, Georgia, when he won his fifth NCAA Div. 2 golf tournament of the season, carding a threeunder-par 67 in the final round of the Bobcat Invitational. Svensson was the only golfer in the 93-player field to break par for the 36-hole tournament, finishing at one-under par. He also had a tourney-best eight birdies. The tournament’s third round was cancelled due to weather. Svensson’s five victories set an all-time school record for career wins. He’d already set Barry’s single-season wins mark when he won his fourth tournament earlier this month in Austin, Texas. “It feels pretty good to break the record,” Svensson said. “It was brutal conditions, and I just kind of stuck in there. It’s a special win, knowing that it’s a record-setting win for Barry.” He is currently the NCAA Div. 2’s top-ranked male golfer,

and the Barry Buccaneers are the No. 1-rated team in the United States. And for Svensson – who transferred to the Miami Shores, Fla. school last year after originally committing to Div. 1 University of NevadaLas Vegas – the secret to his recent success on the links is about as simple as can be. “Not making bogeys,” he told Black Press last week, when asked what the key to his game has been of late.

“It’s a special win, knowing it’s a record-setting win.” Adam Svensson Aside from that, he said not much has changed in his game this season, though he admitted his confidence on the course is as high as it’s ever been, thanks in large part to extended work with his Barry University coach Jimmy Stobs. “I’ve been working a lot down here in Miami… trying to keep the ball in the middle of the fairways, playing conservative, and just letting the birdies happen,” Svensson said.

“I’ve been playing pretty well lately, so I’m pretty happy.” For Svensson, who enrolled at Barry for the last year’s spring semester just in time to help the school to a national Div. 2 championship, being on such a red-hot streak is nothing new. It compares, he said, to the run he went on in the summer of 2010. That summer, then 16 years old, he won a B.C. Junior Golf championship, a B.C. amateur championship and a Callaway Junior World Championship all within the span of a month. “That was similar, it felt kind of the same,” he recalled, adding that the experience he gained as a junior golfer is helping him now in highpressure tournaments. “Mostly, it’s all just about getting more experience, and knowing what to do in certain situations,” he said. “But those big tournaments helped me a lot, experience-wise.” Next up for Svensson and his Barry teammates is their school’s own tournament, the Bucanner Invitational, set for March 31-April 1 at the Normandy Shores Golf Club in Miami Beach. “I’m… looking forward to the break before we play at home,” he said.

In Memory of Alvin Avinendra Prasad May 4, 1987 ~ April 2 , 2009

Beloved son, grandson, nephew and cousin You may have left us too soon, but the memories you left us can never be measured. For the short time that you were here, you were able to accomplish so much and have made everyone close to you proud. We love and miss you so very much. Deep in our hearts your memory is kept, to love, to cherish, and never forget. Born in Calgary, Alvin moved with his parents to Abbotsford, B.C. to pursue his educational goals. He was a student of the University of The Fraser Valley and was working for Canada Border Services Agency. Despite the tough commitment Alvin dedicated most of his precious time volunteering for a number of organizations and made a difference in so many lives. We are truly touched by who you were. Very sadly missed and remembered by Mom & Dad (Kamla & Bill Prasad), family and friends in Canada and abroad.
