Rail-safety measures include closure of boat launch and suggested chain-link fence along promenade

City livid over waterfront barricade Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

`

Citing an “immediate threat” to safety, a Transport Canada inspector ordered the City of White Rock to close off its West Beach boat launch, and BNSF to ensure trains are blowing their whistles from dawn to dusk, along the length of the waterfront. “What he wants is a six-foot-high fence along the promenade,” an outraged Mayor Wayne Baldwin told Peace Arch News Monday, after discussing the demands in open council. “We’re being dictated to by some petty little bureaucrat in Vancouver,” Baldwin told residents during question period. “We find this outrageous. It’s stupid. It’s an overreaction. This individual took it upon himself to safeguard the public. We will appeal.” While fencing the length of the promenade was not part of the orders issued Friday – those discussions are ongoing as part of a safety review ordered by the federal agency last summer – waterfront visitors will soon see six-foot-high chain-link fence along the west edge of Bayview Park, at the bottom of the Coldicutt Ravine and from the Finlay Street crossing east to Semiahmoo First Nation land. The fencing – to be in place this month – was proposed by BNSF after Transport Canada inspections May 30 and June 2 identified risks. A gate at the boat launch was installed Tuesday. According to orders – emailed to PAN by Transport Canada railway signal-systems officer Dennis Maskell Monday night – the directives follow a mix of incidents and inadequate steps by the city to address safety along the rail line since 1996. The most recent incident on the

The last fatality was on the East Beach tracks in July 2013, when jogger Anita Lewis was struck and killed. Transport Canada also cites the city’s push to encourage locals and tourists to the promenade; an increase in businesses, tourists and trains; increased risk factors; and an observation last week of beach visitors putting themselves at risk as further justification for immediate action.

“Pedestrians have been noted walking, jogging and stopping on the railway tracks, walking their dogs on the railway tracks and doing yoga on the railway tracks,” Maskell writes in his cover letter, noting that on June 2, “there were trespassers in front of the locomotive running to get ahead of it, six teenagers, a mother and her two children, all climbed through the railing and darted in front of the locomotive and crawled through the railing closest to the promenade parking. “There was no horn warning from

the locomotive, nor was there any whistling at the pedestrian crossings within the promenade. While discussions and communications continue, it is my opinion that the public safety of persons using the promenade and related track area are at great risk.” While signage affixed to the gate by the City of White Rock notes the closure is permanent, Maskell describes the orders and notice as “temporary measures to support rail safety and public protection.” i see page 4

Burglar advised to ‘do the right thing’

Second World War hero robbed of medals Contributed photo

A thief took Jack Miles’ medals.

A 96-year-old Surrey man is without medals recognizing his service as a pilot in the Second World War, following a break-and-enter May 30 at his 56 Avenue home. And Surrey RCMP called on the culprit this week to “do the right thing” by returning them. Among items stolen from former RAF pilot Jack Miles during the break-in are a row of five

medals honouring him for service in Canada, Burma and Southeast Asia – plus a framed certificate of appreciation issued by the British Air Ministry in 1946. The break-in took place between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m., Miles said Wednesday. While other items were taken, he told Peace Arch News he’s only concerned with seeing the medals and letter.

For many years, new RCMP recruits weren’t allowed to get married until they had served for a certain period. They also weren’t allowed to work in the province they came from. Women did not join the RCMP until the 1970s, and that was just as controversial as the turban issue. Some women have said the RCMP still does not accept them as full members. In Surrey, it is vital that the RCMP reflect a varied and diverse community. Turbanwearing RCMP members gain easy acceptance among the large South Asian population, and often can communicate more easily in a familiar language with many residents. Surrey RCMP, the largest detachment in the country, is likely one of the most diverse as well, and does a good job of serving a community that is equally as diverse. The RCMP has faced a number of serious challenges in recent years, and is not out of the woods in dealing with them. But in the case of Baltej Singh Dhillon, it made the right decision to accept him, and eventually other turbanwearing members. They have been a credit to the force, and Dhillon’s actions are worthy of the honour he was given by KPU. Congratulations to him, and to all who have followed down the trail that he blazed. He persisted at a time of deep divides, and his persistence showed that national institutions are strengthened by being open to change. Frank Bucholtz writes Thursdays for the Peace Arch News.

Surrey trustees demand voice in negotiations

Teachers vote 86% in favour of full strike Jeff Nagel & Sheila Reynolds Black Press

Next week may mark the end of the school year for Surrey and White Rock schools, after B.C. teachers voted this week in favour of a full walkout. The move by the B.C. Teachers Federation (BCTF) was to put maximum pressure on the provincial government, but as of Peace Arch News’ press deadline Wednesday afternoon, the union had not issued the required 72-hour strike notice. (Check www. peacearchnews.com for updates). Ongoing rotating strikes were scheduled to close Surrey and White Rock schools Friday. The result of the BCTF vote, conducted Monday and Tuesday, was 86 per cent in

favour – or 28,809 out of 33,387 ballots cast. Education Minister Peter Fassbender said the result was not unexpected. “While the BCTF leadership received the mandate they sought, no one should interpret this as any kind of enthusiasm on the part of teachers to shut down schools,” he said. BCTF president Jim Iker called it a “very strong message” to the province. The Labour Relations Board was to hear arguments Wednesday on the province’s application to declare exams and final grades an essential service in the event of a full strike. The province has also pledged to end its partial lockout of teachers at the end of the school year to enable summer-school operations. The government has saved $12 million in

salaries in each week of the teachers’ rotating strike, plus nearly $5 million more by cutting wages 10 per cent based on lockout-restricted teaching hours. Meanwhile, Surrey school trustees say they’ve grown increasingly frustrated that they have no say in how their employees – teachers – are treated. Trustees voted last week to demand that Fassbender return trustee representatives to the BC Public School Employers’ Association (BCPSEA) board and that a government-appointed administrator be removed. Last August, the B.C. government replaced elected trustees on the board of BCPSEA (the agency bargaining on behalf of the province) with appointee Michael Marchbank.

The effect, says trustee Terry Allen, is that elected school boards no longer have a voice during negotiations with the teachers’ union. “We’ve had no say in rolling our employees’ wages back 10 per cent – and we’re the employer,” said Allen. “We’ve had no say whether they’re locked out or partially locked out. It’s become very, very frustrating.” Allen said he attended a meeting with BCPSEA, believing there might be an opportunity to express Surrey’s concerns, but was instead told how things would play out. Under the new structure, BCPSEA is “dictating” what will happen, said Allen, leaving boards to deal with consequences. “It’s totally inappropriate,” Allen said. – with files from Tom Fletcher

Cycling races on track

Strike claims family events Last month’s strike by City of White Rock employees has resulted in a few changes to next month’s Tour de White Rock cycling series. Dates for the three-day event remain unchanged – July 11-13 – as are corresponding races. But the event’s family fun zone and children’s bike parade are cancelled. Both are to return in 2015. Aside from the cycling races – the hill climb is set for Friday evening, the criterium Saturday afternoon and the Peace Arch News road race Sunday morning – other aspects of the Tour de White Rock weekend going ahead as planned include the volunteer banquet July 10 and the VIP breakfast Sunday. The cancellations are due “to time constraints,” according to a news release issued Tuesday by the city. – Nick Greenizan

Governing body considers higher penalty for loss of $100,000 in unreported transactions

Fund advisor agrees to $20,000-fine, 4½-year ban Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

A former White Rock businesswoman investigated by the Mutual Fund Dealers Association of Canada has admitted to misconduct in connection with two “off-book” sales of shares in her company. And while Penny Diann Deming has agreed a fine of $20,000 and the imposition of a 4½-year ban on conducting securitiesrelated business is an appropriate penalty, comments last week by the chair of the disciplinary panel that will impose the sanction hinted at a higher penance. “I’m trying to understand how this will look to the industry and to the public,” said Stephen Gill, noting two women each lost $50,000 in the dealings at question. “For me, it sort of doesn’t pass the smell test. Is the industry going to look at this as a reasonable penalty?” Gill asked. “My gut reaction is it’s not appropriate.” The MFDA regulates the conduct of Canadian mutual-fund dealers. Disciplinary proceedings against Deming were announced Dec. 3. An agreed statement of facts read into the record June 4 by MFDA enforcement counsel Faye Emmanuel states that Deming engaged in securities-related

business contrary to association rules and standard of conduct by selling 240 shares in her company, SHE Financial Group Ltd., while working as a mutual-fund advisor for Worldsource Financial Management Inc. Deming did not disclose the transactions to WFM, the panel heard. The shares were sold to two women identified in documents and at the hearing as A.W. and M.M. Two women who attended the hearing told Peace Arch News that the initials referred to them – Aimie Wallace and Marcie Munro, a South Surrey resident who told PAN in January that she filed the complaint that started the association’s investigation. Deming, 51, did not attend the hearing, but was represented by lawyer Simon Kent. According to the agreed statement of facts, the activities in question occurred between May and August 2010. Deming declared personal bankruptcy in May 2012, and currently resides in Mexico. In a reply last December to the MFDA notice of hearing, Deming denied “the facts alleged and conclusions drawn,” and stated the dealer she worked with “was fully aware and supported my development of the firm and at no time provided any advice that this should be handled differently.”

The panel heard last week that Deming pened to the money is “irrelevant.” “did not intentionally contravene “Some issues are left unknown in the rules of MFDA.” this document and I suggest to you In June 4 submissions, Emmanuel that’s just the way it is,” he said. pointed out that the association’s Kent said Deming became a regrules are to ensure all members “deal istered mutual-fund salesperson in fairly, honestly and in good faith 2003, and that SHE was incorpowith clients,” and that the suggested rated in 2006.

MP, residents question safety now i from page 1 Maskell could not be reached by PAN press deadline Wednesday to address Baldwin’s comments. Railway safety has been top of mind for many on the Semiahmoo Peninsula since Lewis was struck by a passenger train as she jogged across tracks in the 15600-block of Marine Drive. One week earlier, a derailment in Lac-Mégantic, Que. killed more than 40 people. Discussions were further intensified by the deteriorating condition of the Little Campbell trestle on First Nation land and the increase in rail traffic transporting dangerous goods. The incidents were all cited in a decision last fall by Baldwin and Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts to explore relocating tracks inland. Residents at Monday’s council meeting reiterated the call, describing Maskell’s orders as “decreasing safety 1,000-fold.” Some who contacted PAN since the boat-launch gate went up have described the

measure as “ludicrous”, “appalling” and “foolish,” noting that with legal access blocked from west of Bayview Park to the pier, people are crawling through and over the West Beach hand-railing, hauling beach supplies with them. At the gate Tuesday, Baldwin encouraged concerned beachgoers to contact Transport Canada. “Welcome to Berlin,” he said, gesturing toward the barricade. Coun. Grant Meyer – chair of the city’s rail safety task force – described the orders as “asinine.” “This is an absurd-slash-dangerous precedent that could affect every community across the nation,” he said. “Yeah, you want things to be safe, but how far do you go? If we have to do it, shouldn’t every other community in Canada? I just think it’s crazy.” Baldwin said that as tragic as last year’s death was, it should not have triggered current demands. “We’re spending millions of dollars for an accident that was

a mistake on the part of the individual,” he said, noting the jogger was wearing headphones when struck. (The coroner’s office confirmed Tuesday that the death remains under investigation.) “If it had happened 30 feet north, would we be closing the street off? No, we wouldn’t,” the mayor said. “It doesn’t require ridiculous lengths.” Local MP Russ Hiebert told PAN Tuesday that he, too, has concerns regarding the gate, and has asked for a review of the order. “From my perspective, it doesn’t seem to make a lot of sense to trade off railway safety for marine safety, when the boat launch is meant to be a marine access point, a rescue point,” he said. “I’m also concerned about the fact that this was created as a handicapped access point. “I’ve raised all these concerns with the ministry and now I’m going to give them a little bit of time to review them…”

Focus on our waterfront

W

hite Rock has taken a step back into history with what some view as a draconian Transport Canada edict to fence off access to the beach as a response to safety concerns about the proximity of pedestrians and BNSF train traffic. The death of a jogger last year, and an incident in February in which a senior wandering from a care home was struck a glancing blow by a train, have led to increasing scrutiny by the federal agency – the results of which are just beginning to be seen. A gate has just gone up at the West Beach boat launch, and six-foot-high chain-link fence is about to go up along the west edge of Bayview Park, along the foot of Coldicutt Ravine and along the stretch of rail from the Finlay Street crossing east to Semiahmoo First Nation land. The rest is under negotiation at present, but if Transport Canada gets its way, a similar sixfoot fence could stretch all the way along the waterfront promenade, limiting access to the beach to a handful of controlled crossings. It’s reminiscent of the old days, around 100 years ago, when any conflict between the city and the Great Northern Railway – granted the land under and around around the tracks in perpetuity – would result in the railway fencing off the rails regardless of the access needs of residents. In often litigious proceedings – according to Lorraine Ellenwood’s Years Of Promise, White Rock 1858-1958 the railway was often cited for violating an order from the Supreme Court of Canada to “provide and maintain reasonable crossings.” Matters were eased in later years, as both parties realized that being able to access the beach was not simply a railway safety issue but also a water-safety issue. Nothing about this has changed in the 21st century, in which the ability to respond to a marine emergency can’t be held at the mercy of railway regulations. Hopefully reason will prevail and a perceived “overreaction” will be remedied. But there’s another factor at play – the behaviour of residents around the line. It’s no use simply blaming the current moves on a single fatal misjudgment. The fact is that observation of flagrant disregard of even rudimentary safety precautions on the part of the public provided the tipping point for the current orders from Transport Canada. Some may decry the current moves as an overreaction, but we each need to take ownership of our actions.

question week

Is a six-foot fence along the White Rock waterfront needed to ensure rail safety? Vote online at www.peacearchnews.com

wondered if I was sitting on the patio of a crazy person, but the feeling soon waned. Since then, I’ve written plenty of stories about runners. The latest came Monday, when I sat at my desk and whipped up a few hundred words on the Sandcastle City Classic 10K race, which was won by Kenyan Solomon Rotich. He ran 10 km in just over 31 minutes. As a non-runner, the obvious joke, of course, is to point out that sometimes it takes me that long to drive 10 km. But that’s not entirely true. Sometimes it takes me that long just to find my keys. But it’s because of all these stories that I decided this week to give running one last try. If nothing else, it’ll get me off the couch for awhile, I figured. The fresh air will be nice, I insisted. Maybe I’ll lose a couple pounds. Somewhere, I’d heard all that before. So, I laced up my shoes, turned on my iPod and headed out on a nice, easy four-km loop around my neighbourhood. It wasn’t a particularly difficult route – it starts downhill, which helps – and I found myself chugging along just fine for a kilometre or two. And then a strange thing happened. I didn’t exactly hate it. I didn’t love it, mind you. I didn’t race home and sign up for a 10K run. And I didn’t dig through the hall closet and start cutting off the toes of all my shoes. But I hated it less. Maybe that’s a start. Nick Greenizan is the sports reporter at the Peace Arch News.

Our city by the tracks Editor: So, let me get this right. We are paying BNSF $400,000 so that we cannot have access to West Beach. If BNSF and its front man, Transport Canada, really want to make it safe for BNSF/Amtrak and us, then there is only one, obvious solution – rail relocation. Will this be enough to wake up the people south of the Fraser to get them to understand the implications that they are in the process of losing one of the few places they can get to the foreshore? It is a terrible omen of what is coming – very restricted access to the beach with more and longer trains following right behind. The ‘City by the Sea?’ More like the ‘City by the Tracks.’ Hannah Newman, White Rock Q Continuing to make beach access difficult is not the answer. Rerouting dangerous goods cargo away from the Crescent Beach/ White Rock corridor is paramount in protecting this densely populated area. It is not necessary to relocate the tracks. Move dangerous goods through the Sumas crossing and along the CPR/CNR rail corridor already established. If you review the manifests of cargoes, you will note that a disaster along this waterfront is only a matter of time. We need action now. Paul Hough, Surrey Q Over the years, 19 people have been killed by trains in White Rock. Why, now, is there this quick and secretive push to try to keep beachgoers away from the seaside? Without any public consultation, without any public awareness, apparently Transport Canada has decreed ‘Our City by the Sea’ offlimits to the public. It was great disbelief that on June 5 I discovered the six pathways allowing people – parents guiding their swimsuited small children, high spirited teens, the kayakers, paddle boarders, kite-surfers, the elderly, the disabled and me – to cross over the train tracks had been closed. To the unknown eye, any history of those city-sanctioned rail crossings had been obliterated by masterful matching of railings, paint and even wipeouts of the footpaths! How could this happen? How could it happen with such secrecy? Being a White Rock council watcher and activist – and even having attended some of the Rail Safety Committee meetings – I consider myself very aware of what is happening in White Rock, but this was out of nowhere. I watched two longtime, elderly, swimsuited female locals clamber up from the beach dragging a prized piece of driftwood for their garden. “Damn train,” they muttered, as they crawled through the two sets of railings, over the tracks with much ado and difficulty. Far more dangerous than looking both ways and walking across the tracks. Upon a call to an ‘insider,’ I was informed of more to come. And

there it was on Monday, a little White Rock mobile cart sporting the phrase ‘Our City by the Sea’ guarding the newly installed posts that would soon be part of a locked gate, keeping our tax supported boat launch off limits to our citizens. Wait there is more. A six-foot fence is scheduled to be installed at the opposite end – at East Beach. This is Canada. Why is an American rail line, BNSF, given preference over the only recreational beach front south of the Fraser? People come from Surrey, Langley, Abbotsford and farther afield to enjoy ‘Our City by the Sea.’ We know that Bakken oil, chlorine gas and many other deadly cargoes are being carried on this line through one of the most densely populated areas in B.C. It is past time to move the line! White Rock needs to become a city of “Rails to Trails,” so that all people can come and enjoy the spectacular beauty of the Salish Sea and the Semiahmoo Peninsula. Maybe the federal government needs to step up to the plate and make this a federal park. Susan Potzold, White Rock

Changes are coming to the foreshore. Q Re: BNSF to close West Beach waterfront railing gaps, May 27. How is it that an American railway company can prevent White Rock’s Canadian citizens from accessing its own beach front? Let’s not forget that White Rock pays BNSF over $400,000 per annum for its favours. Equally breathtaking is White Rock council’s secret acquiescence to BNSF, the suppression of any notification and the unwillingness to furnish the order they claim they received from Transport Canada. (Editor’s note: Monday, Transport Canada released two orders under the safety act and one joint notice for the city and BNSF, dated June 6.) They even refuse to honour their

obligations under freedom of information act. Does this council not realize that parking revenue is going to be adversely affected as access to the beach becomes more difficult? And, we all know who will be on the hook to make up any revenue shortfall as a result, don’t we? Does this council seriously think that everyone is going to walk the extra mile, with their children, chairs and coolers, etc., in order to access the beach rather than by simply than climbing over or squeezing through the railings? If this council has nothing to hide, why is it being so secretive? Given what is at stake for the White Rock citizens and tourist revenue, the whole affair stinks. As a result, one suspects they will be equally complicit when the ‘other shoe drops.’ High chain-link fences and controlled barriers have been installed by BNSF south of the border. Perhaps we’ll have an overhead footbridge to reach the pier. The situation is yet one more example of the dictatorial approach that prevails in White Rock. Keith G. Knightson, White Rock

Coun. Grant Meyer initially refused to cross the picket line at White Rock City Hall – spending the May 12 council meeting in his truck – then crossed to attend the May 26 meeting, saying it is his obligation as a city councillor.

Letter wrong to label councillor Editor: Re: Councillor crossed line, June 3 letters. While living in White Rock, I got to know Grant Meyer and supported his successful bid for White Rock city council, and his continuing efforts to improve the quality of life for the people of White Rock. Therefore I feel compelled to correct the misleading and disturbing letter accusing Meyer of being a scab. First, letter-writer Mary Garner misused the word “scab.” A scab is someone who crosses a picket line to perform work undertaken by striking workers. Nothing of the kind occurred. Meyer crossed the picket line to take part in a city council meeting, as a representative of the people who elected him (Councillor ‘obligated’ to cross picket line, June 3). Second, Garner’s application of that term falsely maligns Councillor Meyer. He comes from a family of proud union workers and labour-movement supporters, one of whom for example served as a secretary to former NDP premier Michael Harcourt. Anyone who is acquainted with and/or who has spoken with Meyer knows his understanding and his passionate support for the working people of B.C., their wanting to have fair working conditions, decent wages and, above all, an opportunity to strive for an excellent quality of life for themselves and for their families and loved ones. For those right reasons, Meyer has taken every step he could to avoid crossing the picket line (Councillor

frustrated outside of picket line, May 15), which could have been avoided had CUPE formally allowed elected officials to cross when they had to perform their official duties. Brendan B. Read, Belmar, N.J. Q Letter-writer Mary Garner had the gall to state union parlance would define White Rock Coun. Grant Meyer as a “scab” and a “marked man.” Unions are respectable and important organizations, and there is no union in North America that would condone a citizen publicly attacking one of its members with outrageous and fictitious accusations. Garner would be better off educating herself and learning the definition of the word ‘scab’ before using it maliciously against public figures. I believe in free speech, but I believe in speaking the truth freely. I have met Meyer on several occasions and discussed our wonderful city. During the recent strike, Meyer held meetings in local coffee shops and, in fact, used Tourism White Rock’s boardroom to carry on the crucial business of our city in order to respect the picket lines. Meyer is a man of the highest integrity and optimistic vision who never says a bad word about anybody. Meyer cares deeply about our city and works tirelessly for its citizens. I believe in free speech, I believe in White Rock and I believe in Grant Meyer. Susan Strangway, White Rock

Zajac Ranch working to increase registration for overnight camp

An allergy-safe retreat for all children Sarah Massah Staff Reporter

W

hile some parents feel a twinge of panic when they drop their children off for their first sleepover, it can usually be chocked up to separation anxiety. But for parents of children with life-threatening allergies, it’s a whole different feeling when a small mistake can lead to a hospital visit – or worse. For children who live in fear of anaphylaxis â€“ a serious allergic reaction that can be deadly – the options for safe sleepovers and overnight fun are usually slim to none. However, two South Surrey mothers are hoping to change that. Shelly Lynn Nellis and Marnie Miller are reaching out to other families who have children with severe food â??As a parent, allergies about I’m thinking, a safe summer where can I sleep-away give him that camp at Stave Zajac independence Lake’s Ranch. and confidence Nellis, whose in a safe eight-yearenvironment. old daughter, I want to give Ainsley, is him the tools to allergic to nuts and dairy, was grow up.â?ž interacting Marnie Miller with the camp organizers through her work when the idea came to her. “I said, ‘you know what, there’s nothing like this in British Columbia. I would love to see if Zajac Ranch is interested in putting on a camp for children with severe food allergies,’â€? she said. The not-for-profit getaway, located in Mission, has been running summer camps for children with disabilities and life-threatening conditions since 2004, Nellis added. The camp chefs will consult with BC Children’s Hospital

Sarah Massah photo

Shelly Lynn Nellis (left) with daughter Ainsley, and Marnie Miller with son Luke. The women are looking for more registrants for an allergy safe camp at Mission’s Zajac Ranch – the first of its kind in B.C. pediatric allergist, Dr. Edmond Chan, to carefully plan meals and snacks free of the top 10 allergens, as well as meals accommodating those with celiac disease. On top of that, the camp staff will receive training

from a nationally-recognized anaphylaxis organization and medical staff will be on location, just in case. “A lot of allergy families will support one another, but even though it’s a completely safe

camp, staff has been trained, food is safe and there are doctors and medical staff, a child that has been very in tune to close caregivers their whole life – it doesn’t matter how old they are, there is a fear.�

She noted that her 12-year-old son, Luke, has only been able to stay overnight at close family and friends’ homes because of his severe allergy to peanuts and tree nuts. The Grade 6 student said the opportunity to enjoy camp without fear would be a great experience. “I like the idea of going to camp. It’s fun and you don’t have to worry about what you’re eating,� he said. However, Nellis and Miller noted that without adequate registration, the camp may not end up taking place. Currently, there are about 17 children signed up, but approximately 40 are required. “There may be some apprehension from parents who have children with allergens, because they never are really away from us. Most outside family members or friends cannot understand the depth of all this,� Nellis said, noting even Ainsley has reservations about being away from home after suffering four anaphylaxis episodes in her life. “It’s very scary for me because I just get so freaked out. When I find out (I had dairy) I almost want to cry or scream,� she said. However, with every measure being taken to ensure a safe experience, both moms are hoping other families will follow suit. “As a parent, I’m thinking, where can I give him that independence and confidence in a safe environment? I want to give him the tools to grow up,� Miller said. “He can go to camp with kids just like him, and won’t be excluded.� The week-long camp costs $685 and is open to non-allergic friends and siblings. Each camper will recieve a free Allerject epinephrin auto-injector, as well. For more information on the allergy safe camp, visit www. zajacranch.com or email info@ zajac.com

fundraising and staff management. “We are thrilled to be recognized as one of the first hospital foundations in Canada to achieve accreditation,” foundation executive director Jackie Smith said in the announcement. “This accreditation reinforces to our donors and the community that we’re following best practices and demonstrating excellence in the five areas of compliance.”

Surrey resident to participate in ALS fundraiser

Walking for her dad Sarah Massah Staff Reporter

Amy Graham walks each year to honour of her father. The Surrey resident lost her father, Kenneth Graham, when he was 36 to Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) just two years after he was first diagnosed. “I didn’t live with my dad full time – my parents split when I was two – but I remember everything being so different when I did get to see him. He was in a scooter and his hands were crippled. His speech was different,” Graham recalled. Graham was nine years old when her father died, and the loss had a

lasting impact on her, prompting her to volunteer with the ALS Society of B.C. She is also the co-ordinator – and a regular participant – for the People’s Drug Mark Walk for ALS, set to take place June 14 at Bear Creek Park. This year, registration for the walk takes place at 10 a.m. with the walk to follow at 11 a.m. Graham hopes to see more than 300 people walking the park and helping raise the goal amount of $60,000. Money raised for the event goes to patient services and ALS research to find the cause and cure. For more information, visit www. walkforals.ca/bc

Q

uestion: My father was quite ill and because I had quit my job to look after him the last several years of his life, he decided to change his will to give me a larger proportion of his estate. He spoke to a lawyer and he prepared a draft and sent it out to my father who looked it over and approved it by making a check mark on the pages then sent it back to the lawyer. Then he had a massive stroke, was unable to speak or sign anything for several months, then died. I think that I am stuck with his earlier will that gave quite a bit to a son who had died and left children who themselves have ignored my father their whole life. Am I right?

A

nswer: Not for sure. The new Wills Estates and Succession Act now makes provision for a will not witnessed in the “old” way and while you will be required to get a Court order, you may well be successful in having the more recent will probated. Up until March 31, 2014, you would have had no chance of success. NEW CLIENTS WELCOME

Real homes for real people with MOSAIC’s York By Kerry Vital

Langley’s Willoughby neighbourhood has been growing over the past year, and offering a wide range of homes for local buyers. However, MOSAIC Homes is bringing something a bit different to the market with York, which is giving first-time buyers a chance to dip their toe into the home-owning waters with an accessible price point that doesn’t sacrifice any of the quality that MOSAIC is known for.

“It’s very rewarding to see someone buy their first home,” says MOSAIC’S Geoff Duyker. “People are taking their first step onto the market.” MOSAIC has introduced a new floorplan at York, called the Grouse plan and featuring two bedrooms and just over 1,000 square feet. “These are the most affordable homes compared to other townhomes on the market,” says Duyker. There are several other two-bedroom plans, as well as three-

NEW HOME DEVELOPMENT

bedroom plans. “There are a lot of options in this area for people buying a townhome,” says Duyker. “It’s exciting for us to be the one that people are choosing.” As evidence of this, MOSAIC opened York for sale last weekend, and already more than half of the first release of homes have been sold. In fact, Duyker notes that there were people sleeping outside the Home Store overnight the night before in order to be first in line to see the three model homes. “There is beautiful street appeal,” says Duyker. “We here at MOSAIC love design and love architecture.” That’s also proven inside, with oversized bay windows, curved archways in most homes and nine-foot ceilings on the main living level. “We call it ‘Country Modern’,” says Duyker. “It’s a more heritage-style form that’s been made contemporary. It just feels different than any other home on the market.” Homes at York start at $259,900. For more information, www.mosaichomes.com/york, stop by the Home Store on 207A off 84th in Langley, or call 604-882-6758.

Ledingham McAllister’s Waterscapes includes high-rise tower Skye at Waterscapes and The Herons at Waterscapes, a collection of four-storey low-rise buildings. Luxury is evident everywhere in the development, including the kitchen, top right, living area, bottom right, and The Cascade Club, right.

Resort-style living at Waterscapes By Kerry Vital

Ledingham McAllister brings luxury to Kelowna’s waterfront with Waterscapes, a master-planned community inspired by the sparkling lake and relaxing atmosphere. “It feels like a resort community,” says Manuela Mirecki, senior vice-president of marketing and design for Ledingham McAllister. “The response has been really, really good.” Waterscapes offers a range of home styles,

including high-rise residences at Skye and townhomes and low-rise homes at The Herons. Among the features in the homes are wood-grain shaker cabinetry in the kitchens and soaker tubs in the ensuite bathrooms. Homeowners at Waterscapes have exclusive access to The Cascade Club, which holds a fully equipped fitness centre, billiards lounge, guest suites, library and outdoor kitchen, among many other amenities. “The Cascade Club is literally your own private country club,” says Mirecki. “It’s been in constant use since it opened.” If you venture off the property, Waterscapes is just a short walk away from shopping dining and nightlife in Kelowna. “Living at Waterscapes offers you the whole life experience,” says Mirecki. “There is nothing like this anywhere else.” On June 21 and 22 between 12 and 6 p.m.,

Ledingham McAllister is hosting a blowout sales event for the remaining homes at Waterscapes, and will offer spectacular deals. “For the penthouse (at Skye), we will be reducing the price by up to $150,000, and two-bedroom-and-den homes by up to $60,000,” says Mirecki. In The Herons, Ledingham McAllister will be offering discounts of up to $80,000 on the townhomes and up to $45,000 on the two-bedroom-andden homes. “Ledingham McAllister has been in business for 109 years,” Mirecki says. “There’s no one else in Western Canada who can offer that level of experience.” For more information, visit www.ledmac. com/waterscapes, call 1-250-763-8313 or stop by the sales centre at Sky Tower, PH3, 1075 Sunset Drive, Kelowna, open daily (except Fridays) between 11 a.m. and 5 p.m.

DID YOU KNOW: Iron deficiency is the leading nutrient deficiency worldwide, and the #1 cause of fatigue in females who menstruate. Fatigue, rapid heartbeat, cold hands and feet, brittle hair and nails, shortness of breath, dizziness, pale skin, leg cramps, insomnia: it can be difficult to pinpoint the cause of these non-specific symptoms, so make sure iron deficiency is not one of the suspects. Did you know it takes roughly 3 months for all of your iron-deficient blood cells to die off and be replaced by new ones? It is usually not enough to take an iron supplement for just a few weeks, but nobody wants to suffer the side effects of traditional iron pills for longer than that. Try Floradix Formula, a natural, vegetarian, plant-based source of iron from Salus. Even if you haven’t tipped into true “iron deficiency”, it’s a great way to supplement your iron stores and ensure that low iron is not holding you back from getting in shape for the summer. summ su mmer er.

…on the Semiahmoo Peninsula

Robert Genn remembered

A legacy in the art of living M

ore than 400 people packed the main stage theatre at Surrey Arts Centre Monday for a celebration of the life of painter Bob Genn. Each, in some way, had been touched, influenced, amused or inspired along the way by the internationally known landscape artist, writer and bon vivant who passed away May 27, at the age of 78, in his home overlooking South Surrey’s Serpentine Fen. Family were, naturally, at the forefront of the Alex Browne celebration: his wife Carol, their firstborn, musician-producer Dave Genn; Sara, an artist, writer and performer and her twin, James, a filmmaker; plus Genn’s immediate and extended family. Others who knew him as a fellow artist remembered the impact of his professional insights and personal encouragement with gratitude. Each of the speakers – including good friends Charles Diamond and Yulanda Faris – touched on the integral importance of the arts in Genn’s life. But the strongest impression that emerged from their words – and a rich collection of family slides assembled by James – was of a man of immense generosity, who embraced life without reservation. Perhaps, as the son of a man who owned a sign-painting shop in Victoria, and abundantly gifted – a duck he crayoned for his mother at age three already shows his unmistakeable eye for line and form – it was natural for Genn to have had a certain reckless attitude to the colours in life’s paint box. Sara, with whom her father shared a special artistic ESP, remembered his exhortation to squeeze out each colour “as if you’re a millionaire.” But it was an approach Genn, the enthusiast’s enthusiast, brought to everything. He famously collected vintage cars and boats, all of which became floating studios, as James put it, “for the purposes of Revenue Canada.” He collected many hats and knew how to wear them rakishly. But Genn also collected people – genuinely fascinated by their individual passions, everquesting to find out what made them tick, whether or not they had an artistic bone in i see page 34

here’s nothing like a 25th anniversary to underline the passage of time. Cellist/teacher/arranger Harold Birston still remembers early concerts by the Semiahmoo Strings in which some members of the youth ensemble – now long grown and with children of their own – were so tiny their feet didn’t even reach the floor as they sat earnestly bowing violins. The public has two opportunities to get involved in the music and memories when the Strings celebrate with a 25th anniversary concert next Monday and Tuesday (June 16-17) at 7:30 p.m. at the Wheelhouse Theatre, Earl Marriott Secondary, 157551 16 Ave. Under the baton of Harold’s wife, orchestra founder and violin teacher Carla, the young members will be augmented by Semiahmoo Strings alumni, some of them returning from as far afield as Nova Scotia and London, England. and a contingent of professional wind and brass players brought in for the anniversary concerts.

Pat McDermott is funny as always, making the most of his role as the man who has struggled up five flights to install the couple’s telephone. Unfortunately, he’s not matched by Ryan Elliott as the delivery man, who seems to have climbed a much shorter staircase, with packages that are evidently weightless. Sadly, Susanne de Pencier’s wardrobe choices are unflattering for the principals, outside of a couple of nice changes for Peterson. They’re also too reliant on clothing obviously fabricated in the ’80s, rather than making any attempt to evoke the early-’60s. The White Rock Players Club makes much of aiming for excellence in community theatre. But if it’s going to continue to choose era-specific subjects for its shows, it needs to join the rest of the entertainment world and realize that period clothing can’t be an unimportant detail. There are people in the audience who know the difference. Barefoot in the Park runs until June 21, Coast Capital Playhouse, 604-536-7535.

who was transitioning into another career. The Birstons moved to the city and started building the Semiahmoo Strings from the ground up in 1989 to provide invaluable ensemble experience for their students. “I was the conductor intially, for about about a year, but Carla was giving me a lot of coaching on the tempos,� Harold recalled. “I said ‘you should take over’ – without any malice. And ever since then, the Semiahmoo Strings has succeeded far beyond our expectations.� Keys to the success has been the professionalism the Birstons have modelled for their ensembles, and what Harold terms “the passing of the torch� from older to younger students. From the beginning, it has been evident in the manner, body language and focus of even the youngest players. The pre-concert placing music on stands, tuning and adjustment of instruments, and careful scanning of parts has always been consistent with the modus of much older musicians, an impression that once moved this writer to describe the ensemble

Team roster takes shape

Eagles bring locals aboard Nick Greenizan Sports Reporter

Top Shelf All-Stars coach Dave McLellan is taking his hockey team, including Aidan Kahl (left) and Brandon Lam, to Beijing later this summer.

South Surrey hockey team to play in China in August

Bantams prep for big road trip Nick Greenizan Sports Reporter

A

South Surrey-based bantam spring hockey team is taking their game to the Far East. In early August, the Top Shelf All-Stars – made up predominantly of Semiahmoo Minor Hockey members but also including players from seven other Lower Mainland associations – will board a plane for Beijing, where they’ll spend a week playing games against local Chinese teams, while also soaking up plenty of culture off the ice. The idea was hatched when the team’s coach, South Surrey resident Dave McLellan, was contacted out of the blue in April by the son of his former agent. From 1999 until 2008, McLellan – who has coached locally with the junior ‘B’ Delta Icehawks as well as in the BC Hockey League with the Burnaby Express – coached professionally in Japan, for the Nippon Cranes. Knowing McLellan had ties to Asia, his

agent’s son – now living in Beijing and working for the International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF) – wanted to know if he’d be interested in bringing his Top Shelf bantam squad to China for a series of games. “It’s funny how things happen,” chuckled McLellan, when discussing how the trip came about. “It all came together very fast, and we had to make a quick decision. It was a time challenge and also an economic challenge – it’s very expensive to fly there. Half our costs are just airfare. But there was 100 per cent support from our parent group.” In an effort to offset some of the costs, the team held a barbecue and bottle drive Saturday at Docksteader Source for Sports in South Surrey. The Lower Mainland team will play at least four games in Beijing, from Aug. 3-10, with players from all teams mixing-and-matching at various points. “It’s basically a series of friendlies, to steal a

term from soccer,” McLellan said. “We’re not sure on the exact format just yet, but there will be a bit of an exchange where one day half our team will go play for the other team, and half their guys will come play for us. “The Beijing players, they really want to have that integration on the ice. We’re going to do a meet-and-greet skate, too, and some of those kinds of things. They want to learn from us. They want to learn about hockey from a Canadian perspective.” There will be plenty of off-ice activities planned as well, McLellan said. The team will visit the Great Wall, as well as Tiananmen Square, and will also spend time with the Chinese players away from the rink. “It’s just a great exchange of hockey and culture. From my perspective, it’s all about learning, for all the kids,” the coach said. “To be able to go here because of hockey, that’s a pretty great opportunity for these guys. I mean, who would’ve ever thought you’d get to i see page 38

Say this for the Surrey Eagles – they’re staying true to their word. When owner Chuck Westgard took over sole control of the BC Hockey League team in April – buying out his remaining minority partners – he promised the team would have a renewed interest in icing a lineup of local faces. And midway through the offseason, the team has done just that, signing three players with local ties and trading for Ben Vikich another, all in Surrey Eagles the last three weeks. Last month, the Birds – who lost to the Langley Rivermen in the first round of BCHL playoffs last season – signed 20-yearold Semiahmoo Minor Hockey alum Ben Vikich, who spent the majority of last season in Maine, with the Portland Pirates of the United States Premier Hockey League. “I’m excited to come back to Surrey for my 20-year-old season,” said Vikich. “As a kid I regularly attended Surrey Eagles games hoping to one day represent my hometown team.” A week after Vikich’s arrival, the Eagles signed Surrey native Quinn Lenihan, who played Junior B last season for the Grandview Steelers in Vancouver, and on Tuesday announced that White Rock resident Sam Chatterley – who i see page 39

Sharing the sport i from page 37 go to Beijing because of hockey?” Two members of the team – defenceman Brandon Lam and goaltender Aidan Kahl – both expressed excitement about the upcoming trip, with Lam especially interested for family reasons. “I’m just looking forward to seeing the different culture, and sharing our culture with them,” Lam said. “Plus, my dad is Chinese so it will be cool to see where he’s from.” And though it’s not Japan, where he spent a decade coaching, for McLellan, the trip is a welcome return to Asia. While it stirs up plenty of memories of a time he calls “one of the best experiences of my whole life,” McLellan

also notes many similarities between where China is hockeywise now, and where Japan was in the late ’90s when he arrived. The Asian Professional Hockey League – which now has teams in Japan, China and South Korea – was founded in 2003, and McLellan said the appetite for the game is on the rise. “China is kind of where Japan was a number of years ago, but as far as infrastructure goes, it’s quite good. Hockey there seems to be on a huge, huge upswing… it’s growing,” he said. “And that’s what this trip is about – boosting interest in the sport and helping grow the sport a little bit there.” For more on the team and its upcoming trip, visit www.allstars2china. com

Mustang T5 takes a bow Our classic and collector car expert continues today with the final part of his four-part series on the restoration of public relations executive Laura Ballance’s rare 1967 Ford Mustang T5 by 360 Fabrication in Abbotsford.

The restoration story of Laura Ballance’s Mustang T5 has been interesting to follow and one that is not typical of this kind of project. Before I get carried away telling you what a T5 actually is, I have to report that with the help of the team at 360 Fabrication, suppliers White and Peters, BASF paint and the 200-plus hours of paint preparation, application, wet sanding and polishing by master painter Darren Emmerson, the car is finished. And here is the best part, it’s on time and under budget, almost unheard of in days gone by, let alone today. So what is so special about a T5 Mustang? The Ford Mustang could not be sold in Germany as a Mustang because a truck manufacturer there and later a motorcycle manufacturer owned the trademarked name Mustang. Both manufacturers offered to sell the rights to Ford for $10,000 each, but Ford declined and decided the solution would be to use the initial Mustang project name, T5, as the solution.

With all of the changes required, they should have probably paid the $10,000. With there being so many U.S. armed forces bases in Germany, export models were highly sought after. Ballance had no idea how rare her car was until she decided to embark on this project and began doing her research. The T5 registry has informed Ballance that of the 453 Mustang Hardtop T5s built in 1967, hers is one of the few examples ordered with a vinyl roof, which is listed as an option in the V.I.N. tag. There are only two T5s known to exist in Canada, hers and one in Ontario, and only 45 have survived in various states of condition worldwide. It is going to be a busy summer for Ballance, her two daughters and the Mustang. I suspect her father, never in his wildest dreams, would have thought the car would end up as a show car, let alone become a family affair involving three generations. The T5 will debut at the Vancouver Classic Car Show and Auction at the PNE on June 21 and 22. A picture of it at it’s gleaming best will be in next week’s Driveway preview of that show. Then it will head south in July to the Mustang Roundup in Bellevue, Wash., the world’s largest Mustang meet. The car is entered in the Concours restoration

The car will be viewed at least 30 or 31 times a month, gracing the walls of garages and repair shops all over North America, in a 2015 Ford calendar. This ends a restoration project with a happy conclusion.

Bringing a curber conman to justice can cost tens of thousands of dollars. While penalties can be high, many successful prosecutions may yield a fine of just a few hundred dollars. One case currently before the courts is five days into a trial over a $288 ticket. The costs to date of further action against the offender are now approaching $80,000. At first sight, one might think it appropriate to save public cash but the problem is allowing a dismissal to occur sets a dangerous precedent that could harm future prosecutions. Because the matter is still before the court, the accused’s name is withheld but the circumstances can be revealed because they are instructive. The Surrey man has undergone continuous legal action by the VSA (in partnership with the City of Surrey). The Provincial Court found him guilty on three charges of curbing. He continued to curb so the VSA obtained an injunction from the BC Supreme Court. That did not deter him so the VSA applied to the BC Supreme Court to find him in contempt of court. If successful the man will face a fine of $10,000 if found curbing again. This form of con clearly can be very profitable, if the perpetrators figure fines and legal expenditures are merely the cost of doing business. I’m indebted to the Vehicle Sales Authority of BC for providing the research necessary for produce last week’s typical curber profile story and today’s account of real scams. Please, if you don’t want to buy from an established dealership, do your due diligence as to the registration and condition of the vehicle you plan to buy. keith.morgan@drivewaybc. ca Check out some of the reasons why Nissan is

Electrifying and smart Which cars on the market today don’t I like? It’s a question I’m often asked and one I struggle to answer. Today’s automobiles are made so well, there are no real turkeys. But, and there is always a “but,” there are certainly cars I like more than others and some I prefer not to drive. The regular Smart ForTwo is one of them. The small dimensions are perfect as a city runabout but the lethargic gasoline engine and very

choppy automatic transmission make it more work to drive than I prefer. Well, after driving the latest Smart ForTwo Electric Drive (Smart Electric) my mood has changed to the point that this might be the best little electric car for the city, it’s that good.

Looks The Smart Electric looks like the regular Smart, with a compact little body that provides an amazing amount of interior space and a lot of crash protection on the outside. The exterior of all Smart cars have

L 3 A 1 N 20 I F

been designed as a singular safety cage, called the Tridion Safety Cell. While other cars have exterior panels that absorb impacts, the Smart’s exterior metal bits are the strongest part of the car. In crash tests, these tiny cars fare well. The Smart Electric, just like the gasoline version, is available as a coupe or cabriolet. Spotting a Smart Electric is a bit tricky; this is not like buying a Toyota Prius or Chevy Volt.

No, this little dynamo blends right in. It is only a small decal on the side with the emblem of a plug or the subtle badge on that back that gives anything away.

Inside My nine-year-old son, Charlie, really wanted to go for a ride, not because it’s electric but because he had never been in a Smart Car before and wanted to see what all the fuss was about. Since there are only two seats, he could place his seat back as far as he liked and had vast amounts of leg room. He also commented on the large cargo shelf behind the two front seats for storage. The cabin is tall and we both had a commanding view of the road. The rest of the cabin is refreshingly simple. There are two bug-like gauges on top of the dash that indicate the batteries state of charge and if the car is drawing power or regenerating power when coasting or braking. The instrument cluster provides a simple trip computer displaying the vehicle’s electric range and an “eco” meter that helps the driver be more efficient.

Drive Under the cargo shelf in the back is the LithiumIon battery pack that has 17.6kWh, roughly a 135km range, when fully charged. This little car can be quick too, thanks to the 96 ft.-lbs. of instant torque from the electric motor. This moves the car along quickly, but the throttle has been calibrated for smooth acceleration, helping the driver gain the best

efficiency. I should point out that the high centre of gravity, short wheelbase and slightly choppy ride all combine to make a less than connected car in the corners, so be aware that this car can accelerate quickly but it will not corner quickly. What the electric version has over the regular gasoline model is a much smoother delivery of power. No more anemic gasoline engine and gone is the choppy transmission. The electric motor is smooth and refined.

Verdict Once again, the Smart Car is a perfect example of how to get the most out of a small space. The electric cord that connects the car to a 120volt outlet is packaged into the tailgate of the car. In fact this is the best electric car packaging I’ve seen. Most companies just leave a bag in the trunk, while this system hides it all away. With a starting price of $26,990 for the coupe, the Smart Electric is an expensive two-seat car but a bargain in the electric world – the least expensive in Canada. The regular gasoline Smart is really an inner-city runabout, which is why the electric version makes so much sense. With up to 138 km of range, this Smart Electric will have more than enough range for existing Smart buyers and is a great second car for any family. The Smart Electric is now on my list of cars that I truly enjoy driving, the best Smart of the bunch. zack.spencer@ drivewaybc.ca

PSYCHIC CIRCLE SUMMER FAIR

Nygard Clair John

*TAROT *PALM *ESP

Nov. 4, 1946 - Jun 8, 2014 After a hard fought battle with cancer, Clair Nygard has gone fishing. He leaves his loving and caring wife of 54 years Valree, daughter Jill (Joel), son Clay, and grandsons Troy, Owen and Dylan waiting on the dock. He is survived by his sister Sharon and sister-inlaw Verla (Barry). He loved his family, cherished his dogs and thoroughly enjoyed time with his extended family and friends. A day spent outside in the garden, hunting or on the water were always his first choices and if his son was in the boat and the fish were biting all was good. He was one of the best power moochers on the West Coast catching many 50 and two over 70. He was the original sports fishing pioneer in Hakai Pass, putting it on the map as the fishing destination. He owned and successfully ran Active Sales and Marketing for over 40 years. He respected and trusted his partner Geri and his dedicated staff long after he retired. He was his unique, one of a kind guy right up to the end and that is exactly what we will miss. Please join us as we celebrate his adventure filled life on June 18 at 2:00 p.m. at Henderson’s Funeral Home in Chilliwack. No flowers please, donations to the Chilliwack Hospice are appreciated. A special thank you to the medical and nursing staff for treating him with such dignity and kindness.
