‘Across-the-board’ reductions would impact Surrey programs, services and staffing, trustee says

School cuts sought for $8.5m shortfall Sheila Reynolds Black Press

The Surrey School District is facing a budget shortfall of about $8.5 million for the upcoming school year – a figure officials say could be cut in half if the province would cover the more than $4 million the district is forced to spend on portables. Trustee Terry Allen said the anticipated operating deficit means cuts will have to be made “across the board” in Surrey and could potentially impact supply budgets,

programs, services and staffing. “The instructions are to make them (cuts) as far away from the classroom as possible, but there’s nothing that we provide that isn’t classroom-driven,” said Allen. He said trustees met with local MLAs two weeks ago, but instead of “hammering away” at them over the general shortage of operating funding, which most districts are also facing, they focussed on the millions Surrey spends on portables annually. Surrey currently has about 320 portables

and must not only pay for the buildings, but for their depreciation, upkeep, utilities servicing and cleaning. Because the city is growing far more quickly than schools are being built or expanded, so-called temporary portable classrooms cost Surrey more than any other B.C. school district. “Across the province, there’s special funding for everything else,” said Allen, referring to extra grants provided to districts in colder climates to cover extra heating costs, or to rural districts for busing.

“For all of those unique functions, funding is provided. This issue around portables is completely unique to Surrey.” The concept of providing extra funding for portables is not unheard of. In 2010, thenminister of education Margaret MacDiarmid gave Surrey an extra $2.5 million to offset portable costs associated with the mandated implementation of full-day kindergarten. “A clear precedent has been set here,” Allen said. i see page 4

Caller taunts police

Wild ride A saddle bronc rider is surprised right at the gate during competition at the Cloverdale Rodeo & Country Fair Saturday. Organizers say unexpected sunshine helped draw a record crowd of more than 100,000 to the four-day event, including 21,000 who shoe-horned into the actual rodeo site, where some performances Sunday and Monday were sold out. See more photos on page 29.

A man claiming to be the suspect in last week’s homicide in Cloverdale called a TV station over the weekend and said he’s not turning himself in to police. “They have to do their job and find me,” said the man who called CTV News claiming to be Barrie McQuarrie. Police believe the caller is the real McQuarrie, 33, who’s named as a suspect after a man was shot at a home near 176 Street and 57 Avenue Surveillance image May 12. RCMP photo. A public warning was issued the next morning advising anyone who spots McQuarrie to call 911, and that he be considered armed and dangerous. i see page 4

is a five-minute drive from Carvolth Exchange, but there is no bus service between the two points. There is still no easy way to get between Cloverdale and White Rock via transit. Bus service in many Surrey neighbourhoods disappears after 7 p.m., yet the transit map proudly proclaimed all the late-night bus routes available in Vancouver. The transit map is well worth a detailed examination, as Surrey, White Rock, Delta and Langley residents will be asked soon to look over (and vote on) a list of tax increases that mayors want, to boost TransLink service. While the details have yet to be released, Jordan Bateman of the Canadian Taxpayers Federation has suggested they may include some or all of a $75 car tax, a .5 per cent increase in the sales tax, five per cent boost in property taxes, new regional carbon tax and a $1 toll on every bridge in the region. Without a solid proposal for a substantial increase in transit service, and a serious attempt to bring bus service to the blank areas of the transit map, how could anyone in Surrey or other South Fraser municipalities ever back such a plan?

Young adults injured in single-vehicle rollover near South Surrey sandpit

Eight thrown from back of pickup truck Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

Ten young adults were lucky to escape serious injury early Saturday when the pickup they were riding in flipped near 192 Street and 32 Avenue in South Surrey. According to police, eight 15- to 20-yearolds were thrown from the box of a Dodge pickup after its 17-year-old driver lost control, hit a curb and did a complete rollover, coming to rest right-side-up. “Amazing that our officers didn’t knock on doors that night to give parents the worst of news,” Surrey RCMP Cpl. Bert Paquet said Tuesday, noting the group was hanging out by a sandpit near the intersection just prior to the incident, which apparently occurred

Emergency crews assist the injured teens. as the driver attempted to manoeuvre back onto the road. All 10 occupants were able to walk from the scene; five were uninjured and three were

taken to hospital. The most serious injuries were possible broken ribs and a concussion. “These eight people were extremely lucky,” Paquet said. A passerby described the scene of the rollover as strewn with straw and hay. Five ambulances, two fire trucks and police attended. Police say all but two of the truck occupants were Langley residents; one hailed from the Aldergrove area, and one from Surrey. Paquet said investigation is ongoing, however, police believe alcohol and/or drug-use was a contributing factor. Any charges will land squarely on the driver, he said, noting the passengers should take responsibility for endangering themselves. “None of these eight young adults were

forced into the back of the pickup truck,” he said. “This is the time to thank their lucky star and learn a valuable lesson from this.” The incident was the first of two over the long weekend that saw injuries result from reckless activities. The second occurred Monday in the 10100-block of 128A Street, and left a 23-year-old man with head injury. The driver was pulling his SUV from the back of his house, down the lane and up to the front of the home, when three men decided to hop onto the open tailgate. The driver accelerated when he got onto 128A Street, and while two of the men were able to hang on, a third tumbled out and hit his head on the pavement. – with files from Kevin Diakiw

Three champions

Surrey chess mates master nationals Alex Browne Staff Reporter

South Surrey chess prodigy Luke Pulfer, 10, has scored another first. The South Meridian Elementary Grade 5 student topped his grade category in the Canadian Chess Challenge 2014, held last weekend in Winnipeg, Man. He was part of a 12-member B.C. team of students in grades 1-12 at the competition, the Canadian national scholastic chess championship. B.C. placed third overall, but Surrey was well-represented – in addition to Pulfer’s first place, fellow Luke Pulfer Surrey students grade 5 champ Joshua Doknjas (Grade 6) and Tanraj Sohal (Grade 12) also claimed top spots for their grades. It’s the second win in the competition for Pulfer, also current Canadian Youth Champion, who was the top player in his grade three years ago when the challenge was held in Victoria. “Luke was quite thrilled,” said dad Robert. “The smile on his face when he was presented with his trophy said it all – and the trophy is practically as big as he is.” Pulfer, who has been playing since he was five, also competed in the World Youth Chess Championships in Dubai last Christmas, and also two years earlier when it was held in Brazil. Unfortunately, athough he’s qualified for the world championships again – this year in Durban, South Africa – he won’t be competing. Robert – himself a former Olympic cyclist as member of the national team – explained that, unlike some other countries, chess is not considered a sport in Canada, and thus is not eligible for national sports funding. “With no funding there’s only so many events he can go to,” Robert said.

Workers from a variety of unions – from BCGEU and Teamsters to Unifor and Surrey Teachers’ Association – join striking city workers Tuesday.

Unions rally as White Rock city staff continue to strike

We’re not that far apart: Baldwin Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

More than 100 workers from unions across the Lower Mainland gathered on the front lawn of White Rock City Hall Tuesday afternoon to support striking city employees. “This is solidarity,” CUPE 402-01 president Mike Guraliuk proclaimed to cheers and applause. “We are not standing alone.” The rally – which lasted about an hour – was announced Friday, after mediated negotiations the day before failed to bring the two sides any closer to resolution. CUPE 402-01 has been on strike – the City of White Rock’s first ever – since May 1; full-scale job action launched May 12. Key issues are clear hours of work for employees, cash-in-lieu benefits and a long-term disability plan. The latter is a particularly sticky point on both sides of the bargaining table. Guraliuk told Peace Arch News the union simply wants the city to commit – “preferably in the contract” – to setting up a payroll deduction for the benefit. The setup would be no more onerous than that done annually for the employees’ United Way campaign deductions, he said. “CUPE staff in payroll say it’s a few hours one

morning… then it’s an automatic deduction.” City manager Dan Bottrill said the city is willing to assist the union with a CUPEadministered plan by providing a plan carrier with employee information that the union may not have. But, “we don’t believe it needs to be part of a collective agreement.” Mayor Wayne Baldwin said he is optimistic an agreement can be reached on all points. “We’re not that far apart,” he told PAN. Baldwin added that a letter explaining the issue is to go out to residents “hopefully this week.” “They should understand what’s happening,” he said. Noting limited availability of the mediator, Baldwin said he expects a return to the bargaining table next week.

Garbage and recycling are starting to pile up.

B.C. Federation of Labour president Jim Sinclair.

“We don’t want to see our employees out. They’re good people,” he said. At the rally, Guraliuk announced a message for Baldwin: “We’re not going to fall back and cower,” he said. “We’re going to fight this to the bitter end.” Meanwhile, collateral damage of the job action is growing. In addition to the strike’s impact on this weekend’s White Rock/South Surrey Relay for Life fundraiser, garbage and recycling is starting to pile up in the city. As well, Semiahmoo Minor Lacrosse players can’t host home games, leisure programs are on hold and seniors’ dances at the Kent Street Activity Centre have been cancelled.

‘I am just trying to stay out of jail’ i from page 1 Investigators determined that Sunday’s phone call came from a pay phone in Aldergrove. On Tuesday they released surveillance photos and said it is believed McQuarrie remains in the Lower Mainland. The caller admitted to pepper spraying victim Gregory Quesnelle, 32, in self-defence days before the murder, but insists he didn’t shoot him. “I didn’t go back and kill him,” he said. “I just want them to know I’m not armed and dangerous.

Schools i from page 1 Allen, who chairs the budget committee, said while he understands provincial dollars are tight, Surrey’s distinct situation should be acknowledged. “I know there’s no money. But when we have a shortfall of $8.5 million and $4.5 million of our budget is being driven by additional costs for portable classrooms, something is seriously wrong. It’s not just frustrating, it’s appalling.” Education Minister Peter Fassbender could not be reached for comment by Peace Arch News press time Wednesday. The board plans to announce its 2014-’15 operating budget on June 19. The ministry requires all districts to submit balanced budgets by June 30.

Strike planned The B.C. Teachers’ Federation plans to start one-day rotating strikes at B.C. schools next week, with Surrey’s public schools set to cancel classes Thursday. The move signals the BCTF’s rejection of a six-year contract offer made by provincial negotiators last week that offered teachers a $1,200 signing bonus if an agreement is reached by the end of the school year, or a wage cut if job action continues. BCTF president Jim Iker said Tuesday the bonus doesn’t make up for the government’s wage offer of 6.5 per cent over six years. A simultaneous threat to cut wages five per cent or more because of strike action is “just so disrespectful, so unnecessary, and we’ll be dealing with it at the Labour Relations Board,” Iker said.

Alcohol to be sold at White Rock event â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;by mid-Juneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;

Market offerings expand Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

Beer, wine and spirits will likely be on the table at the White Rock Farmersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Market this season â&#x20AC;&#x201C; but not in time for its May 25 opening day. Market manager Helen Fathers â&#x20AC;&#x201C; who is also a City of White Rock councillor â&#x20AC;&#x201C; said she expects the weekly offerings to include alcohol â&#x20AC;&#x153;by mid-June.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;As soon as the government makes the decision, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re ready to go,â&#x20AC;? Fathers said. The provincial government approved the sale of alcohol at farmersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; markets in March. Fathers said all thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s left is finalizing â&#x20AC;&#x153;across-the-boardâ&#x20AC;? policies around it. One thing is for certain, she said â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Â at no point will there be sales of open alcohol. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not what the intent of this is,â&#x20AC;? she said. Also new to the market this year is the Food & Nutrition Coupon Program â&#x20AC;&#x201C; an initiative that provides coupons to low-income families and seniors which they can then use at the

Fathers said the White Rock market has been approved for 40 families and 20 seniors, with the coupons to be administered through Sourcesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; food bank and womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s programs. It includes an education com-

Throughout the summer season (May 25-Oct. 12), the market will run Sundays from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., with â&#x20AC;&#x153;easilyâ&#x20AC;? 80 vendors every week.

Open market

urther evidence for the argument that White Rock could be doing more to attract visitor dollars is the news that the night market concept is on its way to Cloverdale Fairgrounds. The City of Surrey has announced an openair market – modelled on the successful night market that draws thousands to Richmond from the spring through the fall – will be getting a trial run this July and August, Friday and Saturday evenings from 6 p.m. to 11 p.m. It is sure to bring even more vitality to oncesleepy Cloverdale, which has been showing its renewed commitment to becoming a destination with a number of new initiatives, including last year’s launch of Fraser Valley Heritage Rail Society’s restored BC Electric Railway car. Meanwhile in White Rock – where recent arrivals sometimes seem startled to learn that they have moved to a potential tourist area – the official attitude appears to be one of complacency and caution. What potential could initiatives like the nightmarket idea have for the City of White Rock, or perhaps, Semiahmoo First Nation, if its members are so willing? The city relies on pay parking and fines for revenue, yet seems convinced that the beach, the pier and the promenade – and a strip of merchants – are more than enough to offset the unimaginative obstacles and punitive fines it has put in the way of visitors spending time here. If our knee-jerk reaction to attracting more business is fear at the prospect of promoting rowdyism and excessive drinking on the part of a minority, we must, at some point, consider what family friendly alternatives we are providing for everyone else. A restrictive street-busking policy, a limited art walk and a paid-admission museum two or three permanent exhibits short of being a bona-fide draw do little to promote a sense of a vibrant White Rock waterfront. The idea of attracting even more business to the area seems to strike fear into the heart of both residents who want only a quiet lifestyle, and existing investors who quake at the prospect of more competition. But White Rock – like neighbouring areas of South Surrey – must wake up to the fact that this is a seaside community likely to appeal to large numbers of visitors year-round. We can go on perceiving our visitors as a source of noise and nuisance or – using our much-vaunted creativity – embrace the opportunity to boost the real economic health of this community.

Last week we asked...

Have you refused to cross a picket line?

yes 52% no 48% 96 responding lack of connection. Compared to the good ol’ days of VCRs and quality service (ouch, burn), society has crippled into an introverted shell of communal disinterest. Still, keep in mind the reasons why your fellow passerby is, well, just that: a passerby. Perhaps it’s due to mildly selfdemoralizing struggles – such as a stutter – or a fear of making eye contact, or their mind is occupied with to-do lists and whatever they ate for breakfast. Or, perhaps, they simply don’t care. Regardless, it can be uncomfortable opening up to strangers. Many have no problem displaying information on Facebook, yet the idea of personally acknowledging each other seems excessive. Stutter or no stutter, it makes sense to summon the effort. In fact, if you ask me – or any other delinquent teenager who secretly longs for moments of realworld interaction – a summoned smile or chirped greeting can go a long way. It’s the little things in life that make it so extraordinary, after all – even if that little thing is sputtered into irregular clips of incomprehensible sounds. And, hey, moments ago, a pleasant stranger took on the task of opening the door for me and, heaven forbid, presented a smile. An amiable chat unfolded and, as brief as it was, it sparked that little extra something that makes life more enjoyable. “How has your day been, young lady?” “Absolutely wonderful. And yours?” And guess what: I didn’t even stutter. Emily Fenton, a Grade 11 student at Earl Marriott Secondary, spent last week on a work-placement program with Peace Arch News.

Legalization no guarantee Editor: Marijuana for non-medical use is illegal everywhere in the U.S. It will be interesting to watch how U.S. lawmakers and law enforcement deal in the longer term with the conflict between U.S. law and limited state legislation allowing personal use and commercial outlets. This is especially a matter of concern near border crossings into Canada. We have learned from the president of the Canadian Medical Association that unproven claims of medical value for marijuana are a concern where used as a ploy to justify nonmedical use. “Medical marijuana if necessary, but not necessarily medical marijuana” applies perhaps, but care is needed to avoid misleading legalization advocacy. Will the relaxation of state laws allowing marijuana possession in certain circumstances contrary to U.S. federal laws and commercialization lead to new and increased border crimes and trafficking? This has been the experience in the Netherlands where the marijuana drug trafficking crimes moved out of the Amsterdam Red Light District marijuana cafés legalized in 1976 to other communities and to the borders. Today, Dutch border concerns and social problems related to drug abuse are cited as reasons to reconsider. We should be cautious about advocates who claim street drug prices and trafficking will or has collapsed in Washington state, or if legalization occurs simply because they say so. Illegal drugs carry none of the costs of commercial sourcing, from fire safety to quality control, to fair wages and business licenses, to buying electricity, packaging and, most costly for any commercial enterprise consumable from tooth paste to beer, marketing. Trafficking may flourish under legalization. Before the dreaded words “prohibition” and “alcohol” are uttered, let us remember the violence and crimes of Al Capone were supplied by legal, regulated, taxed commercial beer and liquor smuggled into the U.S., not bathtub gin. “Legalize, regulate, tax” is a slogan too, not policy or a basis for good public policy. Brian Marlatt, White Rock

Reminder of violence Editor: It really is a small world. Yesterday my wife, Sheryl, and I were selling our Surrey shirts at the Cloverdale Rodeo when late in the evening up walked a very big tattooed man who inquired if we had 3X hoodies. We checked our stock sheet and showed him the one 3X we had which was a “Better Safe Than Surrey” design. The customer tried it on then asked to look in the mirror.

As he looked at the design featuring six bullet holes – one for each victim of the Surrey Six massacre – a strange look came over his face. He told us he couldn’t buy the hoodie and when asked why told us that he just realized it was the fifth anniversary of when he was shot at the Legacy Showroom in Cloverdale. We agreed that especially with the date that it was bad karma and asked him about the shooting. He admitted he was the target

of the hit that killed an innocent bystander in the bathroom. I went online this morning to check the date and confirmed that May 16, 2009 was the date that innocent bystander 34-year-old Chris Whitmee was gunned down with another man being shot and injured at this now-closed strip bar (‘Best dad’ gunned down in Cloverdale), May 20, 2009. Knowing this, it might be a good time to bring public attention to

one of Surrey’s most notorious unsolved murders by giving it some public attention. The Surrey RCMP previously asked for the public’s help on the one-year anniversary of the crime. Time has a way of loosening lips and maybe someone can help ID the shooter who ran off into the night five years ago after this violent incident that is believed to be drug or gang related.

A rally is held Tuesday outside White Rock City Hall marking the second week of city workers’ full-scale strike.

We need thoughtful end to strike Editor: Re: History-making strikers target mayor, May 6. The impasse between the City of White Rock and CUPE workers appears to be, in part, a desire by the union to have a new long-term benefits plan and clearly defined working hours, and appears, on the surface, to be fairly reasonable. The question would be, who is going to pay for it? The city may feel that defined working hours will have the potential to cost more, as various services – i.e. snow fall and clearing – don’t keep a tidy time schedule. Long-term benefits also come with a large cost. White Rock taxes are already considerable, so there would be some pain for ratepayers if the city agreed to bear the costs involved. Some workers may feel that they can no longer afford to work for White Rock and may feel obliged to seek employment from employers with deeper pockets. Many White Rock residents, including my family, don’t have an employer-paid disability benefit plan and so are obliged to purchase our own. There is no shame in admitting you cannot afford to buy something that you may want, just because someone else already has it. There is probably no reason that the union could not buy such a group plan out of their own revenues. Food for thought in the new economy. While it is an admirable characteristic for a councillor to decline to cross a picket line, on his way to fulfill his council duties, as a matter of principle and/or morality, it does bring into question his qualification to be a councillor and to serve his constituents (Councillor frustrated outside of picket line, May 15). While I admire his principle and character, I believe he should step aside. In any event, hopefully this labour disturbance will resolve shortly. Bob Holden, White Rock Q It’s embarrassing that the management of the City of White Rock apparently can’t work out a timely agreement with its municipal workers that includes a long-term disability plan – something that is part of similar agreements all over the place. A city that is one of the wealthiest in B.C. can surely provide its workers with benefits comparable to cities like Surrey. Let’s get this thing settled. Bill Piket, White Rock

Q Re: ‘Shame’ is not on the mayor, May 15 letters. Letter-writer Glen Gerow’s hyperbolic rhetoric would appear intended to fan the flames in the current city labour dispute. Good job he’s not our negotiator. This strike would never end and we’d all disappear in a rising pile of our own garbage. He has purposefully taken what seems to me to be one employee’s concern over “what appears to be the complete lack of progress and no willingness to negotiate,” and twisted it into an expectation that the city cave in to the union’s demands. Quite the stretch! But the letter writer was not finished. He talks of “typical” union workers and implies that workers who belong to unions are not in the “real world” and, further, that any supporters must be “rental protesters.” Rental protesters implies that they are being paid. Does he really believe that? These workers are our employees. When this is settled, they will return to caring for our parks, collecting our garbage and providing a myriad of other valuable services. Let’s show them some respect and allow the bargaining process to proceed without adding to the acrimony. V. Coulter, White Rock Q Re: Good sense, good cents, May 6 letters. What a great letter! How refreshing to hear the fairminded and perceptive thoughts of an honourable businessman. Our city workers deserve full health coverage and long-term disability benefits. Letter-writer Jeff Baumann sees “the list of union demands” as being “quite modest.” What comes to my mind is the heavy lifting, pushing and pulling that the garbage maintenance workers must endure. This repetitive, physically demanding work necessitates a full health coverage and longterm disability safety net. Also, Mr. Mayor, please ensure that city workers’ financial security is not undermined by work-hour cutbacks. Grant them the clear hours of work that they need. Without their services, White Rock’s underpinnings would crumble. Please, Mayor Baldwin, shift your perspective. Grant our city workers these most reasonable and modest requests.

Dog walker originally reported animals were stolen

Dogs died of heat stroke Monique Tamminga Black Press

“This is truly such a dreadful thing, it is beyond belief,” said Carol Marner, after learning her daughter’s dog was one of six that apparently died of heat exhaustion inside a dog walker’s parked truck last week. Teemo, a bouvier, was a big part of the family, Marner said, noting that what makes matters worse is that the dog owners – all from the Ladner area – had been given false hope that their pets were stolen and could still be alive. “I walked into Colleen (King)’s house last night and there was no Teemo there nuzzling me,” Marner said. “Teemo loved children, and my granddaughter is just so upset.” A memorial for the “Brookswood Six” is growing at the Langley dog park at the centre of the ruse, which apparently was concocted to cover up the deaths of the dogs while in the back of a truck in Richmond. The dog walker had contacted police May 13 to report the dogs were stolen after she had taken them to play at the popular off-leash park. She claimed she returned them to the truck, closed the canopy and left to use the park washroom. When she returned 10 minutes later, she told police, the canopy was open and the dogs

This week, Langley Mounties confirmed the dogs’ bodies were retrieved from an Abbotsford ditch, after the dog walker spoke to officers on Monday. The investigation has since been turned over to the SPCA. “We will be looking for forensic evidence of the cause of deaths and the timeline of their deaths,” said Marcie Moriarty, SPCA manager of cruelty investigations. “If there is evidence the animals died of distress, we could recommend criminal charges be looked at, and it would be up to Crown to lay those charges of animal cruelty.” Moriarty noted there are several

unexplained issues. “Temperatures in a vehicle can rise within minutes, but here we have six dogs, all different breeds and ages, levels of health are different, and yet they all died,” she said. “It is more likely these dogs were left for much more than 10 minutes. It breaks my heart.” Langley RCMP confirmed Monday that they could be looking at public-mischief charges, but cruelty charges could be recommended by the SPCA. Colleen and Lyndon King said they had used the dog walker’s services for two years and that she came with good references. “Things were really good for a long time, and lately it has gone downhill,” Marner said. The dogs used to be taken for swims, Marner said, but some days Teemo would come back dry and want to use the bathroom right away. He would just lie on the grass and not move, looking exhausted. Many people have called and offered kind words and support, Marner said, but the nature of how these canines died will be hard to get over. The other five dogs killed were Buddy, a Boston terrier, Oscar, a rescue Husky, rottweiler cross, Molly, a blue heeler cross, Mia, a young pitbull and Salty, the dog walker’s own border collie.

May Days of reign W

hite Rock has been an ideal stage for community events since the population was large enough to support social gatherings. One of the most enduring annual events, May Day, was started in 1923 by the newly formed Parent Teachers Association. Incorporating the traditions and loyalties of the predominantly British citizenry, the first pageant was held on Empire Day at the school grounds. Inevitably, the festivities included a parade, topped off with dancing at Vidal’s Auditorium on the waterfront in the evening. Expenses for the event were $177.84, offset by income of $212.20. Candidates for May Queen qualified by being a White Rock resident (who Photos courtesy White Rock Museum & Archives judged, since White Rock had no official White Rock’s first May Queen, Marion boundaries?); must have been in attendance McMillan (in back seat wearing crown at the White Rock Elementary School two of flowers) and her maids of honour in successive terms; must have passed her 11th 1923.

for the remainder of the war, 1946 saw the restoration of the ceremony with one very visible change. “When the time came to have the crowning in 1946, I was in Grade 12. We didn’t want to wear those short frilly dresses,” remembered Betty (Lee) Fernyhaugh, speaking of the ritual of the former queen crowning the newly elected one. Perhaps it was the writing on the wall, and the event had run its course. The reign of Valerie Crockford in 1949 brought the event to a close. Reactions to its demise from former participants were predictably regretful. “It was a real highlight of the year. Every kid in school was involved in it,” recalled Lynn (Woolard) Bucholtz, flower girl in 1941.

Shirley Dalgleish summed it up this way: “I wouldn’t say I blame the teachers, but I don’t think the (later) teachers were as interested in the May Day. The teachers that we had were really interested in the event, but then the school got bigger, and it was a bigger responsibility, so you can’t blame them.” Another way of putting it might be, “The times they were a-changing.” Uptown White Rock was growing rapidly, and new ideas for summertime merrymaking were being persistently voiced.

Semiahmoo student receives $3,000 scholarship

Proving dreams come true

PLANT SALE

Sarah Massah Staff Reporter

A firetruck at a high school is often not a good sign. But for Semiahmoo Secondary student Leeza Robertson, the big yellow truck parked outside her school Tuesday morning was a welcome sight. And it wasn’t just because it gave her a break from essay writing in her English class. The 17-yearold Grade 12 student was surprised by Surrey firefighters Matt Johnston and Kevin Copeland, as well as a crew from the Crescent Beach fire department, to be told she was among five students who had been selected to receive the $3,000 Ignite a Dream scholarship. “We had about 38 applicants and they all met the criteria,” Copeland said. “We wanted to give it to everyone.” The scholarship is a part of a program created by the Surrey Fire Fighters Charitable Society, which also hosted their first-ever

MODERN DENTISTRY WITH GENTLE CARE

Scholarships helping those in need

We Strongly believe in delivering the highest quality dental care

i from page 13 “I feel that we really found the top five resilient youth in Surrey,” Johnston said. “They all have a great story.” Semiahmoo teacher Terry Lescisin, who encouraged Robertson to apply for the scholarship, noted the teen fit the bill when it came to the criteria. “She’s a very good student, well-respected by her peers and she’s overcome a very difficult home situation,” he said. The soon-to-be grad, who plans to go into nursing, told Peace Arch News that without the scholarship, post secondary would have been a financial struggle. “I am paying for it all myself, so to have $3,000 towards my education is so reassuring,” she said, noting she also works part-time at McDonald’s. Robertson’s decision to become a nurse stems from a childhood filled with visits to the hospital due to her asthma. “I grew up in a broken home and my mom was

a very heavy smoker,” Robertson said. “So when I was smaller, I would have to go the hospital and being there, comforted by the nurses and knowing

they were here to take care of me, really helped.” The surprise win has proved that hard work and dedication can pay off, she added.

“For me, postsecondary is a dream. So, if you want to pursue something, you should pursue it, because dreams can happen,” she said.

Surrey Libraries hosts discussion

Putting focus on faith Surrey Libraries presents a focus on religions, beliefs and faith May 31 at Semiahmoo Library. It is part of the 4th annual Human Library Program, which aims to link people, communities and cultures through face-to-face conversation.

Taking place from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on the Saturday, Questioning Faith offers readers the opportunity to have a 20-minute, one-onone conversation with human “books” – real people who will share their stories and experiences. Surrey Libraries’ Ravi

I’ve been eating dim sum for 2 decades - the food was fresh and better than the dim sum I had in Hong Kong.

Variances examined City of White Rock staff will take a closer look at the procedures bylaw for its board of variance, following support of a motion by Coun. Helen Fathers. Fathers brought it forward out of concern with the approval last month of an application that didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t appear to meet the boardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s criteria of â&#x20AC;&#x153;undue hardship.â&#x20AC;? It was to enable a home to be built with a three-car garage, she said, noting she was also concerned a prospective buyer was able to jointly apply for the variance. Fathers told Peace Arch News the review is not about blaming the three-member board. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They made the decision on the information they were given,â&#x20AC;? she said. City staff are to report back to council May 26.

Sunday event set for Good Shepherd Church

Magis to perform concert Well-known young singer Kiel Magis will appear in concert Sunday (May 25). Praised for his vocal sound and an ability to connect with audiences, Magis will be joined by members of his graduating class from the UBC School of Music – along with South Surrey’s Stella Maris Concert Choir, for a 90-minute program at Good Shepherd Church 2250 150 St. at 3 p.m. Genres range from sacred and classical music works from art song composer Roger Quilter, a sacred piece by Dvorak arranged by local musician and composer Henri Lorieau, to folk and contemporary songs such as Londonderry Air, All I Ask of You (from Phantom of the Opera), and You Raise Me Up. Piano accompaniment will be by Lorieau, and Vivian Jin. A recent graduate of

UBC, Magis gained his bachelor’s degree in music, specializing in vocal performance. He continues to participate in the Stella Maris Concert Choir, but has also worked with international opera sensation Roelof Oostwoud and sung with the prestigious University

Singers (UBC), as well as the Corpus Christi College Chamber Choir. Tickets (available at the door) are $10, and $8 for seniors, with proceeds benefiting the BC Cancer Foundation. For more information, call 604-531-5739 or visit www. stellamaris.ca

Everyone at school, from students to teachers, had a hand in Laronde Elementary’s latest project – two mosaic artworks created over a one-week period, May 5-9. With the guidance of mosaic

artists Dominique Cote and husband Mathieu Bergeron – partners in Quebec-based Atelier Phebus – all grades at the South Surrey French immersion school got involved in gluing brightly coloured tile fragments to form the two works, which will be installed in the entrance hallway

of the school. On the day the Peace Arch News visited the work in progress, principal Johane Fortin and teacher Robin Deschene were rubbing shoulders with Grade 2 students eagerly piecing together colours in the appropriate panel i see page 32

Southridge plays in Kelowna

Storm earn spot at rugby provincials The Southridge Storm’s senior boys rugby team is getting set for its first provincial contest this weekend. The South Surrey private school – which plays at the AA level – will head into provincials ranked No. 9, and will travel to Kelowna this weekend to play No. 8 seed Kalamalka (Vernon). Southridge qualified for provincials after a 29-24 come-frombehind victory over Abbotsford’s Rick Hansen Hurricanes. The Storm trailed late in the game – 24-17 with just two minutes left – before rallying for two late tries, including

the game-winner just before the final whistle. At the AAA level, No. 6 Earl Marriott – which finished second in the Fraser Valley – will play No. 11 Handsworth in the first round, while 15th-seeded Semiahmoo will square off with No. 2 St. George’s. Lord Tweedsmuir, Surrey’s third entry into the provincial tournament, is ranked 12th, and will play No. 5 Lord Byng Secondary in Round 1. After Saturday, the next rounds of provincials – for AAA teams as well – take place May 28, 29 and 31 in Abbotsford. – Nick Greenizan

Danton Heinen to begin college career this fall

A key member of the Surrey Eagles has flown the coop a year earlier than expected. Danton Heinen, who was named the BC Hockey Leagueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rookie of the year last season after leading the Eagles in scoring with 29 goals and 62 points, will leave the team after just one season to head to the University of Denver Pioneers, one of the top programs in the NCAA. Heinen committed to the Pioneers during the 2013/14 season, but his start date at the school had not been nailed down, though it was thought heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d return to the BCHL for one more season before flying south. Instead, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll begin his college career this fall. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was a very difficult decision to leave the Eagles and I had a lot of fun playing close to home,â&#x20AC;? Heinen said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But everything Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve heard about Denver is that theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have a pretty competitive team next season and I want to be a part of it.â&#x20AC;? The 18-year-old was the BCHLâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s youngest captain last year, when he was given the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Câ&#x20AC;&#x2122; after the Eaglesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; dealt former captain Brett Mulcahy to the Vernon Vipers in mid-season.

Planning next trip i from page 33 taken off, to put it mildly. “Now, this school just produces an outrageous amount of talent,” Jackson said. Though he was already well-versed in Kenyan culture – especially when it came to running – Jackson said he was most intrigued by a local training method referred in other parts of the world as “the Kenyan triple.” The method includes three running sessions, of varying intensity, throughout the day –

which Jackson pointed out is one more than in a typical training day. “It’s something I’ll try to incorporate into my own training,” he said. These days, now three years removed from running at the university level, Jackson admits his own athletic pursuits have taken something of a backseat to other things, though he still runs “just for fun.” He’s already planning a return trip to Iten, he said. “It’s a place I feel very connected to… I’ll be back. Probably soon.”

Other options include a panoramic sunroof, a heated steering wheel, ventilated front seats, tri-zone automatic climate control, and rear door window blinds. Driver-assist safety technologies are also available in abundance for those who like the car to do some thinking for them. The new Genesis is also a statement of intent: it heralds what will be the look of the seven new less-premium Hyundai products expects to grace our showrooms before 2016. When it comes to driving, it’s really a tale of two cars. The top-of-the-line model offers a big V8 5-litre power plant, with 420 horses at its disposal. Ironically, it’s best enjoyed jogged along at low speed on the highway, where it has the feel of an old-fashioned big family sedan. (It’s not a lot of fun on the twisting lakeside roads of the Okanagan.) Cars destined for the Canadian market will come with an all-new HTRAC

active wheel drive (AWD) system. Says Hyundai: “Performance of the vehicle’s all-new platform was validated in some of the world’s most demanding driving environments, including Germany’s famed Nürburgring Nordschleife and Korea’s Yeongam Formula 1 racing circuit.” The large variety of proving grounds offered by the northern Okanagan was much more appealing to me. And especially so in the car equipped with the 311 horsepower, 3.8-litre GDI V6 engine. Flipping between the Normal, Eco and Sport modes and tapping the gear-changing paddles on the steering wheel made for an enjoyable drive. Little lean in the corners and sprightly up hill. Both engines are coupled to an 8-speed automatic transmission with a SHIFTRONIC manual mode. The base price is $43,000, $48,000 gets you the Luxury version, and $53,000 loads up the tech features. If you want the V8, get ready to spend $62,000. keith.morgan@drivewaybc.ca

You’ve got your license, you’ve got your proper gear, now all you need is your motorcycle. Here are a few things to consider before signing on the dotted line.

Speaking from experience, buying through a private sale can be a good way to go, especially on a budget. I found my bike on Craigslist. But if you can’t pay cash up front, dealers generally have financing or payment plan options. Private sales don’t. Dealers also have most likely done a tune-up or some service in preparing the bike for the sale.

Check the VIN through ICBC or a trusted database

It might cost you a few extra dollars to run a bike’s VIN through a trusted database but it can save you multiple headaches in the end. It will show if the bike has been in any reported accidents and detail the damage. It’ll also show if there is money owing on the bike or if it was reported stolen. Keep in mind, if the bike is from out of the country, the record likely won’t show. When I went to buy my first bike, I had my heart set on a beautiful Yamaha R6. It looked brand new and perfect. The seller said it had never been in any accidents and had all original parts. I left thinking that the next day I’d be riding this beauty home. However, I paid my $20 (at the time) and found out the bike had been in two accidents with damage costs of more than $3,000. If you’re buying through a

Budget

Establishing a budget is probably the most important thing to outline when it comes to your new ride. If you’re buying used, this is particularly important. You might be tempted to spend an extra couple of thousand on the bike of your dreams. But if the dream bike just happens to be a nightmare and costs you an unanticipated fortune on repairs, you might find yourself in a pickle.

dealership, they might even have the bike’s history on hand for you. It never hurts to double check.

The myth of displacements

Many new riders like to set a cap on the cc

There are differing benefits to buying new or used. New bikes have warranties, but a used bike that might not be too old could still have one. Is buying either way better than the other? Not necessarily. By buying used you could get a more upscale model for your budget.

Finding the right price for a motorcycle He said he wanted something manageable for his first bike. With long arms and legs, a 250cc bike wasn’t going to fit him! Or vice versa. I told him to look at cruisers, continued on page 41

like the Harley-Davidson Sportster, Honda Shadow, Suzuki Boulevard S40 and Yamaha Bolt. They might have a higher displacement but they’re going to be easy to manage and work much better with his body. What did he buy? A used 2006 Honda Shadow 750cc. And he loves it. I recommend buying a bike that you are comfortable on, both physically and mentally.

Test rides Private sellers won’t generally let you test ride, but ask. Dealers are more open to this, especially with newer models because they

have demo fleets.

Mechanical inspection If you’re buying used, and you are this close to making the decision, before you go to the bank and give up your savings, spend an extra $100 to $200 to get a motorcycle mechanic to look at your potential purchase. The mechanic will then let you know what things might need to be worked on in the near or distant future. I wouldn’t buy a bike without knowing what I’m getting into. alexandra.straub@ drivewaybc.ca

‘‘

Establishing a budget is probably the most important thing to outline when it comes to your new ride.

’’

Alexandra Straub

When you head out to buy your motorcycle, Alexandra Straub advises arriving armed with a budget and sticking to it.

How to get noticed in Monte Carlo Monte Carlo, Monaco: Everywhere you

look, wealth abounds. The parking spaces in front of the Hotel de Paris and Casino Monte Carlo are filled with vehicles no less than $200K. Or should I say 200,000 Euros? I’m feeling a lot out of place. Ferraris, Maseratis, Bentleys, Porsches, Bugattis (yes plural) and other exotic vehicles seem to be a dime a dozen, as it were! Even the taxis are premium makes and models.

‘‘

Within moments of parking these bikes, crowds amassed. Never mind the Porsche GT2 RS a few metres away Alexandra Straub

’’

The occasional “affordable” vehicle (like a 3 Series BMW or an Audi A5) manifests itself, but they already know they won’t be getting the premiere parking spots in town. So how do you get noticed in an area where such opulent sheet metal resides? This is a place where spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on a vehicle is the unwritten rule. And even that might

not be enough for a second glance. The answer is simple: the 2015 Ducati Diavel. You can hear them coming from a mile away (sorry, 1.60934 kilometres if we are to be continentally correct). The devilish Ducati, even with the stock exhaust – which is new for the 2015 model year – could easily conjure sinister thoughts. You’ll look around and try and figure out where the sound is coming from and why it isn’t familiar. The low-note grumble and throaty belligerence characterizes the twin pipes that are both aggressive yet sublimely pleasing to the ears. Now imagine amplifying that sound by more than 30. A flock of Carbon Whitetrimmed Diavels set out to congregate in the main plaza of Monte Carlo. That’s where our press briefing would take place. On the way to the gathering point, the adventure took us through a section of the F1 Grand Prix track. Hairpins, winding roads and silky smooth tarmac paved the way for us. A reflective feeling overrides my senses while manipulating the same roads as some of motorsports’ greatest drivers. It’s surreal. For a moment, I feel like a champion. Though, that moment lasted longer than I anticipated. The Bologna-based brand’s revised sport cruiser is one that commands attention. continued on page 42

driveway if a “handful” was measured in weight, you’re only looking at, or handling, 205 kg (452 lbs.) Speaking of hands, its handling is quite superb. Taking on the twisty roads won’t leave you scraping pegs like other cruisers. And with three modes (sport, touring and urban) to channel the 162 horsepower (100 hp if you’re in urban mode) from Ducati’s new Testastretta 11° DS engine, it won’t take off on you without your consent. With crowds taking photos of this beautiful beast, and asking to take a photo with it, I couldn’t see any other vehicles generating such fervor. It generates even more zeal when on the open road. But for now, the temporary celebrity status that these bikes bring are a welcome change from the norm. And an item that costs at least ten times less than the vehicular ornamentation perfectly placed in Monte Carlo (the Diavel Carbon White model has an MSRP of $21,995) could be considered cheap thrills, right? I guess it’s all relative. alexandra.straub@drivewaybc.ca

Even if you don’t want to look, its black holelike nature won’t let your gaze escape. Besides, you’ve already been hooked by its exhaust note and the mellifluous sound from its 1,198 cc engine, so it’s too late to even attempt to look away. Within moments of parking these bikes, crowds amassed. Never mind the Porsche GT2 RS a few metres away. Never mind the Ferrari California with pristine paint and glimmering rims. The Ducatis are stealing all the attention and for good reason. Styling-wise, it has matured since its introduction in 2012. Though it is immediately recognizable, it has been tweaked. There’s now full LED illumination, a new headlamp cover and mounting and more. Giving the bike its strong road presence is its commanding and bulbous body, matched with a 240 rear tire; a tire that was specifically made in conjunction with Pirelli for the Diavel. Though it might look like a handful, it’s not. And

DOG OWNER ETIQUETTE

Attention Dog Owners (Woof Woof)!

To help ensure that everyone enjoys their parks experiences, we are reminding dog owners to keep their pets under control at all times, and to minimize their impact while visiting Surrey’s parks. This includes: • Ensuring your dog is licensed and wearing an up-to-date ID tag; • Leashing your dog, unless in a designated off-leash area; and most importantly; • Picking up after your dog. Keeping dog waste off the ground is important to keep children, adults and other dogs healthy and safe. No one wants to step or slip in your dog’s waste. It’s not a fertilizer, and does not disappear in the rain! Tips for dog waste disposal can be found at www.metrovancouver.org. To all the responsible dog owners that follow the rules and help us take care of the City’s parks, THANK YOU! Due to the sensitive habitat, please note that dogs are not allowed on City of Surrey beaches, including the Crescent Beach Promenade, between May 15 and September 15 of each year. For some fun in the water with Rover, visit the swimming area for dogs at Blackie Spit Park: 3136 McBride Avenue, at the far north of the gravel parking lot. For more information visit www.surrey.ca/parks.

Natural living at Bridlewood in Coquitlam By Kerry Vital

Located on the banks of West Smiling Creek and a tree-lined stream, Bridlewood by Polygon will have you feeling like you’re a part of nature. The peaceful location on Burke Mountain will make you enjoy staying close to home. Since opening for sale earlier this year, these homes have been so well-received that to keep up with demand, the second and final phase of homes at Bridlewood will be released for sale on Saturday May 24th.

The executive three- and four-bedroom townhomes are built in a Craftsman style, and feature warm cedar shingles, brick facades and gables. Every home has a generous deck or patio, as well as a private fenced yard. Inside, the warm wood laminate floors on the main level combine with large windows and overheight ceilings to make for a truly beautiful living space. The kitchens include stainlesssteel appliances, engineered stone countertops, and a family sized kitchen island.

NEW HOME DEVELOPMENT

The ensuite bathroom is made for luxury, with a glass shower with rain shower head, engineered stone countertops and his-and-hers sinks. All homes feature a convenient powder room on the main level and double car garages (side-by-side and tandem). Coquitlam’s Burke Mountain is one of the most desirable neighbourhoods in the Lower Mainland. Bridlewood has hiking and biking trails on the doorstep as well as the shops and services at Meridian Corner and Meridian Crossing. Coquitlam Town Centre is just a short drive away, as well as transit via the new Evergreen Line. This is the final phase at Bridlewood and the last opportunity to own a home at this sought-after community. Homes at Bridlewood start at $429,900. For more information, visit polyhomes.com, call 604-4729018 or visit the presentation centre at 3470 Highland Drive, Coquitlam, open daily except Friday between 12 and 6 p.m.

The homes at McBride Station are inspired by Fort Langley’s history and heritage buildings, and include such gorgeous features as stainless-steel applJBnces, quartz countertops and large frameless glass showers in the ensuite.

A piece of history at McBride Station By Kerry Vital

Fort Langley can feel like a historic enclave in the middle of the otherwise-bustling Lower Mainland. Local builder Lanstone Homes is contributing to that feeling with McBride Station, an exclusive collection of townhomes that has found inspiration in the past. “This is your chance to own a piece of history,” says Michelle Taylor, director of marketing for Frontline Real Estate Services. “This is going to be one of the last

opportunities to own new product in Fort Langley.” McBride Station is located on land that was once owned by Charles Edward Hope, one of Fort Langley’s first pioneers. The 52 townhomes are inspired by four of Fort Langley’s heritage buildings: The Hope House, The Carriage House, The Station House and The Marr House. The original heritage Carriage House is located right beside McBride Station, and The Marr House and The Station House are close by. The homes range from approximately 1,150 to over 3,000 square feet, in five different master-on-main or traditional floorplans. “They feel like a single-family home,” Taylor says. “There’s nothing cookie-cutter about them.” The exteriors have tons of curb appeal, with twelve different colour schemes to choose

from, a double-car garage and a fully fenced backyard with a covered paver stone patio. Inside, engineered hardwood and nine-foot ceilings throughout the main floor welcome you home. Coffered living room ceilings and large windows contribute to the spacious feeling, and every home has a full in-ground basement. The kitchens feature stainless-steel appliances complemented by quartz countertops, a marble mosaic tile backsplash and designer cabinetry, as well as a designer lighting package with island pendants, undercabinet puck lighting, dining chandelier and recessed ceiling lighting. Relaxing bathrooms have tile floors (with a heated mosaic floor in the ensuite), quartzite countertops and polished chrome fixtures. The master ensuite also has a large shower with frameless glass and a separate soaker tub

in some homes. On-site, homeowners will have access to a large greenhouse and garden plots with a fire pit and playground, and plenty of opportunities for outdoor recreation on the McBride Station Trail that connects to the Fort to Fort Trail. Shopping at several local boutiques is just moments away, as well as restaurants, coffee shops, grocery stores, golf courses, and several other heritage sites. The homes at McBride Station have been extremely popular already. “Ninety per cent of the first release sold out in seven days,” says Taylor. Lanstone will celebrate the grand opening of the show home on May 24, as well as the release of the final phase of homes. Preregistration for VIP access is recommended. Homes start at $594,900. For more information, visit www.mcbridestation.com, call 604-888-7172 or stop by the sales centre at 9235 McBride Street, Langley, open daily (except Fridays) between noon and 5 p.m.

Watkins, Lawrence A., OMM, CD Hon Col (ret) January 1934 - May 2014 Larry peacefully closed his eyes and left us on May 13, 2014 with his loving wife and soul mate Lorna holding his hand. Missing him are his children, Laurie (Allen), Will (Barbara), Lyle (Karen), seven wonderful grandchildren, two adorable great grandchildren and one in our hearts. Staying true to his strong and dedicated character, he used his short 3 weeks “notice” to address that which was most important to him……the well being of his family and friends, and the continuity of his wonderful CF Museum at 12 SVC Bn. He was a director of the Unit’s museum for many interesting years and this brought him great joy. Larry made a significant contribution to the Reserve Army where he earned the respect of colleagues and made lifelong friends around the world. His service and dedication to the military spanned over 54 years. He was extremely proud to be a Canadian. In retirement Larry traveled the country enjoying his motor home and his RV lifestyle and friends. His exceptional memory and passion for history, music, travel and archaeology could always be counted on for lively discussions and enlightenment. Celebration of Larry’s life is to be held at Victory Memorial Park Funeral Centre, 14831 - 28 Ave, Surrey, BC on May 30th at 11:00 AM. No Flowers by request - The family would ask in lieu of flowers for those who wish, a donation to the charity of your choice be made in Larry’s name. Condolences may be offered at: www.victoryfuneralcentre.ca
