Transfer facility’s approval ‘no surprise’ to some opponents
All coal concerns addressed: port Alex Browne & Rick Kupchuk Staff Reporter / Black Press
Fraser Surrey Docks will soon be shipping coal overseas. Port Metro Vancouver announced Thursday morning it has approved a long-proposed coal-transfer facility at Fraser Surrey Docks. It would take at least four million tonnes of U.S. coal by train through White Rock and Surrey each year and send it by barge down
the Fraser River to Texada Island for reloading to ocean-going ships. Environmentalists, residents and other groups opposed to the project had raised concerns about the terminal’s potential harm on the environment and air quality. Fraser Health Authority chief medical health officer Dr. Paul Van Buynder called last year for a full health-impact assessment, and criticism of the project has also come
from Metro Vancouver cities, Vancouver Coastal Health, Vancity and the B.C. Nurses Union. Climate-change activists, including Voters Taking Action on Climate Change (VTACC) believe U.S. coal might stay in the ground and not be burnt overseas if new coal terminals aren’t built in Metro Vancouver or along the U.S. west coast. The South Surrey/White Rock Chamber of Commerce also took a stance against the
project, although the Surrey Board of Trade supported it, along with such stakeholders as the United Steelworkers and the International Longshore and Warehouse Union. In announcing last week that the project is going ahead, Port Metro Vancouver noted it was aware of opposition to the facility, but said “all public, municipal, agency, First Nations and other stakeholder concerns and quesi see page 4

No arrests after man dressed ‘head-to-toe’ in black leaves on foot
Bank robber pepper-sprays six victims Sarah Massah Staff Reporter
A number of South Surrey bank patrons were treated for pepper-spray injuries last week following an armed robbery The Surrey RCMP’s canine unit was called to Scotiabank in the 2400-block of 160 Street
Thursday afternoon in an attempt to track a suspect who sprayed at least six people before fleeing with an undisclosed amount of money. According to Surrey RCMP, the robbery occurred just before 1 p.m. The assailant is described as a man covered “head-to-toe” in black, with a hoodie and ban-
dana covering his face. It is believed he fled the area on foot. On Monday, a Surrey RCMP spokesperson said the investigation is still open, and no arrests had been made. Aside from those treated on-site for pepper-spray, no serious injuries were reported.
The man accused of killing a longtime White Rock resident earlier this month made an emotional appearance in Surrey Provincial Court Friday. Jeffrey Caillé, 22, appeared in court to appoint a new defence lawyer. The slight man, with shoulderlength brown hair, wore an orange prison-issued shirt and pants as he addressed the court through a French interpreter. During proceedings, Caillé’s mother, who was watching from the front row of the gallery with another woman, began to Jeffrey Caillé cry, causing the charged young man to also lose his composure. As Caillé was escorted from the courtroom after his hearing, he blew a kiss to his mother. Caillé has been charged with one count of second-degree murder, one count of assault causing bodily harm and two counts of assault in connection with the Aug. 10 death i see page 4

Police swarm South Surrey home
Accident-shooting arrest Specialized police teams descended on a South Surrey home early Wednesday to assist in the arrest of a man wanted in connection with a July shooting incident in Cloverdale. The arrest took place during a search of a home in the 15300-block of 27A Avenue, with assistance from officers with the Mounties’ High Risk Target Team, Emergency Response Team and Police Dog Services. The Cloverdale incident took place July
21 at approximately 4:30 p.m. According to police, a woman reported that a man had accidentally shot his friend in the leg at a home in the 18700-block of 60A Avenue. The perpetrator fled the scene on a motorcycle. Charges laid following the Aug. 20 arrest include aggravated assault and assault, as well as six firearms-related charges. Langley resident Robert Miskenack, 27, remains in custody and is due back in court on Aug. 28.
Man charged in Front Room murder A man has been arrested and charged in the murder of a senior outside the Front Room Drop in North Surrey last month. On July 25, police responded to a stabbing in the 10600-block of 135A Street. They found Donald
Williams Deweyn, 63, suffering from stab wounds. He was taken to hospital, where he died. Last week, the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team arrested 22-year-old Dylan Robert Dempsey. “Although an arrest has
been made, IHIT will continue to aggressively investigate this homicide as we believe there are persons of interest who have information that have yet to come forward,” IHIT Staff Sgt. Jennifer Pound said. – Kevin Diakiw

Suspected bullet wounds referred to federal government, White Rock police
Dead seals look like they were targeted Alex Browne Staff Reporter
White Rock resident Lee Lewis has called on White Rock RCMP and Fisheries and Oceans Canada after, days apart, finding two seal carcasses on the beach half a kilometre west of the West Beach picnic area. Lewis said the dead leopard seals, apparently a mother and pup, had evidently received multiple gunshot wounds somewhere in the water and washed up on shore. “I don’t think they could have been shot that far out on the water, or they would have gone to the bottom,” he said. “They were both in fairly decent condition, and the gulls hadn’t been at them – but I’m not a forensics expert.” Lewis said his early-morning walk on the beach last Thursday was marred by the dis-
covery of “a scene out of a horror movie.” He said the corpse of an adult seal he found on the shore bore what seemed to him to be multiple bullet wounds. “I immediately contacted Fisheries and Oceans to report this tragic scene of death and destruction at the hands of some disturbed individual,” he told Peace Arch News in an email Sunday. On a walk later that morning, he found the pup, also bearing what he took to be bullet wounds, a short distance from where the adult had washed up, lodged under a tree trunk. Concerned by the potential dangers, he contacted White Rock RCMP, who told him Fisheries and Oceans, after investigating the initial report, had already contacted them. White Rock RCMP spokespeople could not

One of two seal carcasses found on beach. be reached for comment by PAN press time Monday; a Fisheries and Oceans communications advisor said she would investigate. As well as being disturbed by what he called a “senseless” killing of wildlife, Lewis said he is concerned that someone firing a
rifle that close to shore runs the risk of taking a human life as well. “It’s just crazy,” he said. “Bullets can ricochet – skip off the water. I’m not sure how anyone could be that reckless and stupid – there could be kids and families nearby.” Lewis, who has worked on commercial fishing boats, theorized the seals might have been targeted by commercial fishermen. It is not unknown for fishermen to shoot at seals interfering with their catch, he said, noting “sport fishermen seldom carry high-powered weapons on board their vessels.” Lewis said he hopes to raise awareness of the public to the incidents. “Maybe somebody will see something on a boat,” he said. “Hopefully they’ll report it and stop whoever it is doing this crap.”

South Surrey blaze deemed suspicious
Fire guts site of suspected grow-op
CTV News photo
Fire crews investigate 16 Avenue house fire.
Signs of a marijuana grow operation were noted at the scene of a South Surrey house that was gutted by fire Thursday morning. Fire crews were alerted to the blaze, on a heavily treed property in the 17200-block of 16 Avenue, at approximately 6 a.m. “(There was)… evidence there that would suggest or confirm there was a grow-op there at some time,” deputy fire Chief Karen Fry told Peace Arch News. “We previously had it listed as a potential grow-op.” Fry described the fire as suspicious. Traffic along 16 Avenue was diverted at 176 and 168 streets while crews dealt with the fire,
which had been “free-burning” at the seemingly abandoned house for some time before it was reported. There was concern it could spread to neighbouring homes or spark a fire in the forested area, Fry said. What remained of the two-storey house – it burned to the point of collapse – was demolished for safety reasons, Fry said. “There’s some precarious points of the building,” she said, noting demolition was also necessary to ensure any remaining “hot spots” were extinguished. Surrey RCMP is investigating. – Tracy Holmes
Surrey RCMP are continuing this week to investigate a sexual assault on a 38-year-old South Surrey woman near Alderwood Park Aug. 18. No arrest had been made in the case by Peace Arch News’ press deadline Monday afternoon, and police are still advising residents to exercise caution while walking alone. The suspect – described as a six-foot-tall, dark-haired white man, between 35 and 42 years old – may have also sustained injuries during the attack; the victim managed to head-butt him before fleeing the scene. Surrey RCMP are also still not able to connect the Aug. 18 assault to an attempted sexual assault in White Rock Aug. 8. Last week, the Surrey and White Rock detachments issued a joint warning, noting similarities in each case. In the White Rock assault, a 40-year-old woman was “accosted by an unknown male,” according to an Aug. 9 release posting on the White Rock detachment’s website. The assault occurred at 3 a.m., in the 1500-block of Merklin Street, while the victim was walking her dog. The suspect is described as a white man between 20 and 30 years old, about five-foot-10 inches tall, with short hair. White Rock RCMP did not return calls by PAN deadline Monday afternoon. Anyone with information on the Surrey assault is asked to call Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502. Anyone with information on the White Rock incident can call 778593-3600. To remain anonymous, call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222TIPS.

I’m disappointed, yes, but not surprised.” The Crescent Beach resident noted Golder Associates Ltd., which did a review of the project – and is described by Port Metro Vancouver in its releases as “an independent environmental consultant” – has a business relationship with the Macquarie Group, parent company of Fraser Surrey Docks. “They have gone into business together in different partnerships to bid on projects, including an airport tunnel in Toronto and a construction contract in Alaska,” she said. “I’m not sure of the definition of an independent third-party reviewer (that Port Metro Vancouver is using), but it doesn’t sit well.” Williams said it appeared from the Port Metro Vancouver website that Golder just spot-checked information, rather than gathering data themselves. However, Peter Xotta, vice-president of planning and operations at Port Metro Vancouver, said the decision was not taken lightly. “Through our comprehensive project review process, stakeholder consultation, as well as thirdparty validated environmental and health studies, it was determined there are no unacceptable risks and the project could be permitted.” Port Metro Vancouver says the $15-million project will provide 25 direct and 25 indirect full-time jobs.

‘Senseless loss’ i from page 1 of longtime Peninsula resident Bruce Ridout. Two women were also injured, and neighbours reported a violent altercation between a young man and woman prior to Ridout’s death. When a neighbour – who identified herself through an online comment on a Peace Arch News article as Melissa Brady – tried to intervene, she was threatened and had a knife thrown at her, before she called 911. According to police and witnesses, the attacker then went inside Ridout’s house and threw knives and other objects off the balcony. When another neighbour went in to
subdue the assailant, he discovered Ridout’s body and ran out of the house asking for someone who knew CPR. According to neighbours, Brady ran inside and attempted to assist the man. In her online comment, Brady said she was with Ridout when he died. “I shall never forget what happened and how senseless this crime was. RIP Bruce. My heart is with you everyday,” she writes. While police have not released any details regarding cause of death, witnesses say Ridout was stabbed while coming to the defence of a woman. Caillé’s next court appearance is Sept. 5.

Former chair of Surrey’s police committee, Coun. Barinder Rasode, said it’s not a question of whether the RCMP can adjust. “I have no doubt that they could absorb it, I’m just saying they shouldn’t have to,” Rasode said. She said the solicitor general should be asked to return those services, but also to work with the local municipalities on what services should be cut, if any. Surrey was not consulted at all before the cuts were announced, she said. Former Surrey Mayor Doug McCallum, who is campaigning for the job this fall, said the timing of the budget reductions couldn’t be worse. “These cuts are completely inappropriate,” McCallum said. He agrees with Rasode that Surrey should have been consulted on the decision. “We have got to get better communication in the RCMP and the region,” said McCallum, saying it’s key to effective decision-making.

Honour system is cheaper
I
solated, frail seniors and people with mobility issues who live alone in a singlefamily home will be among those hardest hit by new Canada Post plans to discontinue house-to-house mail service by 2019. While it’s understandable that Canada Post would want to revisit so-called “snail mail” delivery and look for efficiencies in an era of digital communication, the national postal service shouldn’t discriminate against individuals who are unable to use the new community mail boxes for one health reason or another. But coming up with a simple solution to help these people is proving to be a challenge. Canada’s national mail carrier deserves credit for appointing a dedicated team to work out adjustments and accommodations for individuals with mobility issues, but requiring a doctor’s note to prove need seems heavyhanded. Surely, there are other ways to handle this situation without going to such extremes. Many of those who need home delivery – including those here on the Semiahmoo Peninsula, which boasts a large seniors population – are likely to be in straitened financial circumstances with few supports. Yet they should also be given credit for their independence and not having to rely on taxpayer-subsidized housing or hospital assistance. It seems reasonable to take them at their word rather than requiring a doctor’s note to justify a special accommodation. Even Canada’s doctors are crying foul, arguing that this requirement will burden doctors and the already expensive health care system. Perhaps Canada Post could consider allowing seniors and disability advocacy organizations to be referral agencies. An automated telephone service could also be implemented, similar to one used for Employment Insurance, for people needing special accommodation. True, there may be some people who take advantage of the situation without a proper screening. But rooting out these fraudsters might be more costly than simply going by the honour system. Like the SkyTrain fare gates situation – where the solution to fair evasion is more costly than the problem – trust is cheaper.

notion of easing the rules for secondary businesses. “You will already find situations where there’s, let’s say, a welding shop or something like that attached to somebody’s residence who lives on ALR land,” Popham said. “That sort of stuff has been allowed, but it’s always had to go through the ALC or some sort of process that’s been in place. This leaves that process out, and so I think that’s the problem people are having.” She noted that non-farm activities have a way of growing until they become the main business. A reader who attended the Kelowna session said even winery operators aren’t thrilled about the proposal to enlarge retail space and allow sales of wine or beer not made on site. He said “not one” participant there liked the idea of increasing industrial activity such as food processing or retailing. And he agreed with Popham that the ALC is doing a good job with subdivision applications. Popham also clarified the situation with the leased craft gin distillery on her own Vancouver Island farm. It started as a winery, and the conversion needed only local government approval because the production facility was already considered and taxed as light industrial. Victoria Gin has been a model for the government’s push to allow distilleries, breweries or meaderies on farmland. Given the B.C. Liberals’ love of liberalized liquor, I expect that change to go through. Tom Fletcher is legislature reporter and columnist for Black Press. tfletcher@blackpress.ca

Gaza truth kept from public

Editor: Re: Support for Israel justified, Aug. 19 letters. To all the people who are in support of Israel for bombing Gaza and killing innocent people, including children, please do yourself a favour and read this op-ed by Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu in an Israeli newspaper: http://www.haaretz. com/opinion/1.610687 Most of the private corporate media in Canada and the U.S. has been keeping the public in the dark for a long time. Hence, I won’t blame the public for their ignorance. Arun Chatterjee, Surrey
Public interest ignored
No benefit to bus Wi-Fi Editor: Re: Three buses equipped with Wi-Fi, Aug. 19 So, now we have to put up with possibly more addictive behaviour on public transit. It is shocking to me to see Translink feeding into the over-use of already problem-causing devices. I have been witness to altercations involving these gadgets escalating into near chaos. Not a very pleasant experience in a confined space. Transit is a means of getting from point A to B in as peaceful and uneventful a fashion as possible. We do not need entertaining by Translink (improve the customer experience on transit). Years ago, we got a ban on smoking on public transit. Who knows for sure if Wi-Fi isn’t even more detrimental to our health, and sanity? Why the 351 White Rock to Bridgeport as a trial run? Why spoil one of the most pleasant rides in the Lower Mainland? A. Wallis, White Rock
Editor: Re: ‘I can’t seem to get a straight answer from the city’; Vacant house has neighbours riled, Aug 5. I read with interest, concern and sympathy about the frustration experienced by White Rock residents over city hall’s coy mishandling of the “Waves on Marine” development project and the impending development project for 1575/1577 Nichol Rd. The official indifference and lack of meaningful action shown by the city to the legitimate concerns is simply shameful. But sadly, this is not a new thing. Led as they are by the developers’ champion, Mayor Wayne Baldwin, the majority pro-developmentat-any-cost clique currently in command of city council have left a record that shows a clear and unmistakable pattern. As Baldwin reportedly said, even greater density is coming to White Rock “whether we want it or not.” Whether it is the Bishop Road development, the White Rock Muffler Shop development, the Mariner’s Reach development, the Evergreen Baptist development or a multitude of other smaller
development projects, in all cases, the city has placed developer interests paramount above public interests and concerns of neighbouring residents. What do you think will happen when the Epcor Oxford Street land development project resurfaces, if all of the current developer clique on council get re-elected? Dennis Lypka, White Rock
Safety should matter here, too An open letter to Surrey-White Rock MLA Gordon Hogg: As you are my MLA, I wanted to bring your attention to some of the smart-grid business-model issues, which I believe were not much or at all communicated. As you may or may not know, every smart meter technically is a data-transmission relaying node of BC Hydro’s wireless microwave mesh system. It re-transmits the data from neighbouring devices – other smart meters. Here is the key point: a smart meter is installed on the owner’s premises, yet as smart-meter proxies the transmission of the data which the owner has nothing to do with, it means that BC Hydro is doing its commercial activity; non-related to the owner’s meter readings, gathering and re-transmitting the data not related to the owner’s electrical consumption.
It looks like an obvious violation of legal business practice – mandating the installation of a device for non-related-to-owner business,with no disclosure of the smart meter full spectrum of functionality; no request and negotiation for locating the smart meter as a device doing more than homeowner electrical consumption reading. It is not just conflict of interest, but rather, a violation of homeowners’ property rights. Michael Volasnky, Surrey Q Saskatchewan is removing all 105,000 smart meters and reinstalling the older meters for public safety. That province had at least eight smart-meter fires, but B.C. Energy Minister Bill Bennett says he’s unaware of any problems here. A Mission woman’s house burnt down due to smart meter installation; smart-meter fires also hit the news in Coquitlam, Sparwood, Port Alberni, Nanaimo, Port Hardy and Vernon. Our fire commissioner has no code for such fires, so it’s hard to ascertain the number in BC. Saskatchewan Energy Minister Bill Boyd said that any time families are at risk, actions have to be taken. Our government response, as with any smart-meter health and safety issue, is willful ignorance and a cheerful spin. Don’t we in B.C. deserve the same level of public safety as Saskatchewan residents? A. Churchill, Surrey

White Rock needs a bylaw limiting the flying of flags to those of the city, B.C. or Canada, writes Roger Currie.
Flag exceptions unacceptable Editor: I think it is wonderful that our community can celebrate different festivals from the various culture groups that surround us. The festivals allow us to learn more about each other and to help us, I hope, to come closer together, regardless of our religious or cultural beliefs. I do ask though, that, regardless of the festival being celebrated, the flag of the nationality celebrating does not fly anywhere in the city, except at city hall or in a
flag-flying location designated by the city. I did not like the seeing the national flag of another country flying from the pier last year supported by a large balloon. The only flags that should be flying at anytime should be the flag of the City of White Rock, of the Province of B.C. and, above all, the flag of Canada. No exceptions. A bylaw should be instituted by the City of White Rock to control this. Roger Currie, Surrey

Tracking a stolen pickup truck led police to thousands of dollars worth of pilfered merchandise in Surrey. On Aug. 11, the Integrated Municipal Provincial Auto Crime Team (IMPACT) and Surrey RCMP followed the driver of a stolen Nissan pickup through the Guildford area. They followed the female driver to a residence near 100 Avenue and 138 Street where she was arrested. While there, they found five other stolen vehicles, including a Jaguar and a motorhome. Upon searching the home, police found a huge cache of other stolen merchandise including welders, power tools, generators,

…on the Semiahmoo Peninsula
Inspired by sister, Siobhan Coates takes on Ride2Survive
Finding love on two wheels Boaz Joseph
O
Black Press
n this particular day in June 2012, breakfast had taken place hours earlier, shortly after 3:30 a.m., in a church in Kelowna. By mid-day, amid seemingly interminable uphill stretches on the highway, with massive leg pain and mind-numbing fatigue having set in, an occasional glance downward kept Siobhan Coates going – for what would total 12 hours of pedalling, covering 400 kilometres from Kelowna to North Delta. Having trained the previous year as a support-crew member, this was her first Ride2Survive event as a rider, and it wasn’t easy. But she had taped to her bike a photo of her sister and nephew. Her sister, she remembered, was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2011, just one week before the first Ride2Survive event Coates was involved with. “I had no idea when I joined the group.” So, on this day in 2012, she pushed on, keeping in sync with the other riders. “I was very headstrong,” the Surrey woman – who works at Thrifty Foods in Morgan Crossing – said. “I would not listen to my legs.” Her sister had already had her surgery; a double mastectomy with reconstruction, but it wasn’t yet clear if she was out of the woods. “I had a lot of anger as well. So anytime in the ride of 2012, whenever I would get tired or think I couldn’t do it, I would just look down at the picture of my sister and think, well, my sister had no choice, so I’m gonna just focus on the fact that she powered through. “And I never wanted my nephew to not

have his mother.” The picture on the bike was only replaced this year, as the original was worn out. While Ride2Survive offered hope as cancer threatened her sister, there were also other positive distractions to come from being involved in the event every year since. Her initial connection to Ride2Survive was made by local spin instructor and ride
founder, Vicki Kunzli. “I didn’t have a road bike at this point,” she said. “I had a $200 Canadian Tire bike. I didn’t have the clip-on shoes or anything fancy.” At the time, she didn’t aspire to more than just supporting the group – 400 km in one day seemed impossible. She went on a few training rides with the group, and halfway through the 2011 training season, she splurged on a proper road bike, knowing that she was interested in joining as a rider the following year. She still rode the last 80 km in the first year – she had to pay tribute to her sister. That year, among other new friends, Coates was introduced to a veteran Ride2Survive member and cancer survivor named Graham Street. “I met Graham in 2011 and thought he was a great guy. He was a ride captain and well known within the group.” The following year, spending more time alongside others in training and on the ride day, she got to know the riders better,
including Street. “A few of the riders were like, ‘ooh, yeah, Graham’s great, and you guys should look at maybe dating,’ and I was like, ‘oh no, we’re just friends,’ that kind of thing.” It wasn’t until after the 2012 ride that the friendship flourished – their first date was two weeks later. Two full years later, and just one week after the Ride2Survive, the couple got married on June 28, 2014. “The ceremony was at the Columbia Theatre in New Westminster, and the reception was on the Fraser River Paddleboat,” Coats recalled. “My sister, Patsy, gave me away as my dad was too old to make the trip from Nova Scotia.” Half of the 60 wedding guests were Ride2Survive members. Coates is planning to re-join Ride2Survive in 2015. “It’s my friends, it’s my husband, it’s my life.” For more information, visit www. ride2survive.ca

‘Strike camps’ offered The YMCA of Greater Vancouver will be providing strike camps for children if the teacher job action continues into the new school year. Parents can contact YMCA locations to put their child on the “just in case� wait list for the camps. The organization is working towards providing just under 1,200 spaces at 34 locations in the Lower Mainland and the Sunshine Coast. According to a news release from the YMCA, at minimum there will be a limited number of spaces at four YMCA membership centres in Vancouver, Surrey and Chilliwack, as well as on the Sunshine Coast. Camps will run from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
each weekday and will be available to children aged five to 12. Cost will be $10 per day for YMCA members and $30 per day for nonmembers. Being on the wait list does not guarantee a spot, the news release states, but the YMCA “will do everything we can to offer care to all those we are able to accommodate.� Once details of the strike are known, organizers will immediately begin calling people on the wait list. The YMCA will issue a receipt for the camp costs, which can be submitted for the $40/day voucher the provincial government is providing.

Painless treatment for fungal nail infections
Many people don’t realize they have a fungal nail problem and, therefore, don’t seek treatment. Yet, fungal toenail infections are a common foot health problem and can persist for years without ever causing pain. The disease, characterized by a change in a toenail’s color, is often considered nothing more than a mere blemish. Left untreated, however, it can present serious problems. Also referred to as onychomycosis, fungal nails are infections underneath the surface of the nail, which may also penetrate the nail. Fungal nail infections are often accompanied by a secondary bacterial and/or yeast infection in or about the nail plate, which ultimately can lead to difďŹ culty and pain when walking or running. Symptoms may include discoloration, brittleness, loosening, thickening, or crumbling of the nail. A group of fungi, called dermophytes, easily attack the nail and thrive on keratin, the nail’s protein substance. In some cases, when these tiny organisms take hold, the nail may become thicker, yellowish-brown, or darker in color, and foul smelling. Debris may collect beneath the nail plate, white marks frequently appear on the nail plate, and the infection is capable of spreading to other toenails, the skin, or even the ďŹ ngernails. Nail bed injury may make the nail more susceptible to all types of infection, including

Pumpkin Run set It’s time to dust off costumes – or search for a new one – as the Peninsula prepares for the Great Pumpkin Run Walk. The Peace Arch Hospital and Community Health Foundation’s annual fundraiser is set for Oct. 26 and will benefit the building of a new emergency room at the hospital. For the eighth year in a row, residents are invited to sign up for the walk/run, don a zany costume and support the hospital. This year, the foundation aims to raise $100,000 and register more than 1,000 participants for the 5K and 1K distances – which are accessible for wheelchairs and strollers. Prizes will also be another feature at the fundraiser for firstplace finishes, top fundraisers, best costumes and other incentive prizes for participants who raise at least $100 or $50, respectively. There is an early bird draw for those who register by Sept. 12. The deadline for registration is Oct. 25 at noon. For more or to donate, visit www.pahfoundation.ca or call 604-5354520.
think can help our city progress. Furthermore, we should continue to exercise our political engagement even after we have cast our ballots, so that we can hold our elected officials accountable for the promises that they made prior to being elected. So, as this municipal election, and then the federal election in 2015, arrives, let’s all commit to learning about what is important to us. I would suggest discussing political matters with family and friends and making this conversation a part of your dinner-table talk. You can also infuse the political and civic spirit in youth by discussing these topics with your children. Not only will you gain an insight into the mind of a future voter and leader, but this will also help your children
express their political viewpoints in an open environment. It is vital that political and social issues are discussed in one’s home so that they are not seen in an isolated manner or in a context where they are separated from our everyday life. While social media has its many benefits, let’s also discuss these issues in person so that we can fully understand the human element behind politics and government, and emphasize the idea that the political process is ultimately meant to help create a brighter future for our cities, provinces and countries. We must all realize the significance of the coming election and apply ourselves to the task of choosing our political leaders with energy and knowledge. After all, the future of our city depends on it. It

is easy to forget among the campaigning and various other events going on during election time that ultimately
it is us, the electorate, that must make the important decision about who we wish to choose.

THE 100TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE WHITE ROCK PIER Built with federal funds, the Pier opened in 1914 as a 628 feet long dock for coastal steamships. This coincided with the arrival of the Great Northern Railway. After adding another 983 feet, the White Rock Pier officially re-opened in 1915 making it the longest pier in Canada at 1,611 feet long. Its primary function was, then as it is now, to serve as a tourist facility for pleasure boats, for a promenade, and for fishing and swimming. Since its construction it has acted as the focus for White Rockâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s summer tourist activities. Today, the White Rock Pier is one of the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s major tourist attractions. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also one of the areaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most-photographed landmarks.

THE 100TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE WHITE ROCK PIER Built with federal funds, the Pier opened in 1914 as a 628 feet long dock for coastal steamships. This coincided with the arrival of the Great Northern Railway. After adding another 983 feet, the White Rock Pier officially re-opened in 1915 making it the longest pier in Canada at 1,611 feet long. Its primary function was, then as it is now, to serve as a tourist facility for pleasure boats, for a promenade, and for fishing and swimming. Since its construction it has acted as the focus for White Rockâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s summer tourist activities. Today, the White Rock Pier is one of the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s major tourist attractions. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also one of the areaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most-photographed landmarks.

Whitecliff celebrates 25 years
T
The 25th anniversary of Whitecliff retirement residence was celebrated by residents, staff and the White Rock community last week. A “Brunch at Tiffany’s” event, featuring the glitz-and-glam of actress Audrey Hepburn, kicked off the week. Residents and staff wore pearls, elegant gloves and high-style clothing to celebrate the iconic era. Even the food, featuring small turquoise cakes in the shape of boxes decorated with fancy bows, exemplified the popular early-1960s movie Breakfast at Tiffany’s, starring Hepburn as a young New York socialite. Then on Wednesday, emergency first responders in the community were honoured with a Westernthemed barbecue. “It was an opportunity to thank them for all they do for us in White Rock,” says Christopher Mis, executive director of Whitecliff Retirement Living. “These people put their lives on the line for the White Rock community every day, and we are very thankful.”
On Friday, the anniversary celebrations wound down with Whitecliff’s Champagne Reception. With glasses of champagne in hand, the audience listened to a speech by a long-term resident who talked about his memories of Whitecliff and the exciting future he sees for the retirement residence. Delicious food and drinks,
prepared by Whitecliff’s chef, were served, including tiger shrimp and other tasty appetizers. Whitecliff Retirement Living, which was recently renovated, is located on three acres of land in the heart of White Rock.

Hope for Osteoarthritis: Cold Laser Therapy Cold Laser Therapy (often also called Low Intensity Laser Therapy or Low Level Laser Therapy) is an innovative treatment for osteoarthritis and several other – often painful – conditions. Laser light transfers energy to interior cells • Stimulates natural healing • Restores normal cellular structure and function • Prevents future injury What you will experience: • Pain goes away • Reduced inflammation/swelling • Restored mobility Why Cold Laser? • Healing, not just masking of pain • Safe, drug free & no side effects • Avoid or delay the need for surgery • Accelerate and strengthen the body’s natural healing mechanisms The Concept Behind Cold Laser Therapy The healing power of light The concept of Cold Laser Therapy is actually quite simple. As humans, light plays a very important role in our existence. Similar to how plant cells require light for photosynthesis, our cells need light to power many of the normal processes that keep us healthy and happy. As long as we are exposed to enough regular sunlight, our skin absorbs the light we need and our cells can use it for many of their normal functions. If our cells are working normally, then our bodies are able to withstand different stresses from day to day activities and heal various ailments. Light therapy is not a new concept. It has been and continues to be used by doctors to treat a wide variety of conditions. For example, light has shown to be effective for treating many skin conditions including psoriasis and acne, depression and even tuberculosis before there were medications. Most people who suffer from arthritis can attest to the fact that their pain usually reduces or even completely subsides during the summer months or on a vacation to a sunny destination. Vitamin D, critical for keeping our bones healthy and strong, is created in our bodies by a process that requires sunlight. In places where there isn’t much sunlight available year round, people are usually encouraged to take vitamin D supplements during the darker months to help support their bones and prevent against bone-softening conditions such as rickets (in children) or osteoporosis. When we experience pain or inflammation from a problem or injury in an area of our body, the normal cellular processes slow down and our body has trouble healing as a result. Blood flow to these areas also gets interrupted, which restricts the ability of important nutrients to be delivered to the cells that need to heal. The science Scientific research conducted over the last few decades has shown that human cells heal better and faster when the right wavelengths of light energy get delivered to them. Cold Laser Therapy is a breakthrough solution for osteoarthritis pain because it shines a concentrated amount of most helpful wavelengths of light vital for healing (in the red and infrared parts of the spectrum) directly on affected areas. This allows the cartilage, bones and surrounding inflamed tissues to be exposed to the healthy light that otherwise would not reach these areas. By delivering just the helpful parts of the light spectrum, the overall laser light power can be kept at very low and therefore very safe levels, which will not burn or otherwise harm the skin or any other tissues. How Does Cold Laser Therapy Work? Cold Laser Therapy delivers light based energy to cells, helping to accelerate the body’s natural healing process at the cellular level. It targets injured cells, resulting in elimination and prevention of pain, reduction of inflammation and swelling, and improved range of motion. Laser therapy does not just mask the pain, it actively stimulates SKIN (Epidermis) healing to resolve musculoskeletal conditions for the long term. SKIN (Dermis) Red Array The Bioflex Cold Laser Therapy system is a three step process, each using a FAT different wavelength of light which has been found to optimally stimulate Infrared Array your body’s cells. The first step uses a red light pad at 660 nm, which gets absorbed by the cells of the skin and underlying superficial layers of musMUSCLE cle. The second step uses an infrared light pad at 830 nm, reaching deeper Infrared into the muscle layers, as well as the tendons and ligaments. The third Laser step includes an infrared laser wand at 840 nm that is placed specifically on the affected areas by a trained laser therapist. This light is very conBONE centrated and targets the deepest affected structures, stimulating healing inside affected joints and even bone.
Mrs. M. suffered from ever more debilitating levels of pain in both of her knees for a long time, caused by the increasingly common condition of osteoarthritis. She was having great difficulty walking for longer periods of time or going up and down stairs. Sleeping through the night had become a problem, because the pain would wake her. Even simple movements like getting up after having been seated for a while (watching television or having dinner) had become extremely painful. It came to be normal for her to rely on painkillers to help her function on a day to day basis. Over the years, she had undertaken numerous therapies and treatments to stem the tide of ever increasing pain without much success. Even full knee replacement surgery on her left knee only helped to a degree, leaving her with discomfort in the replaced knee even well after the expected post surgical healing time. When Mrs. M. first visited us at Solaj Wellness Centre, she enquired about Cold Laser Therapy and was wondering if the treatments might help in reducing the pain in her right knee, and maybe even prevent the need for knee replacement surgery in the future. After finding out some more details about Cold Laser Therapy, she decided that it was well worth her time and money to give this treatment a try. In her thinking, the upside of avoiding much more invasive and therefore risky surgery was significant and as she had found out on her other knee, replacement surgery wasn’t a guaranteed full success either. After the first four treatment sessions, Mrs. M. was experiencing significantly less discomfort in her knee and she could finally sleep throughout the night without being woken up by pain. And after just two weeks of treatment sessions, she stopped taking pain medication altogether. Having had to take painkillers on a daily basis for years and putting up with their unpleasant side effects, being able to discontinue her daily painkiller regimen was another true milestone moment for her. As she continued her treatments, Mrs. M.’s knee continued to show meaningful improvement. Now she was able to take longer walks with her husband along the beach. And she even started to ride the recumbent bike to help regain the strength in her knee. After 15 treatments over an 8 week period, Mrs. M. was able to stop her treatments. She had virtually no knee pain, had continued to stay off pain medication and was able to become more active than she had been in years. When Mrs. M. came back to Solaj two months after her last treatment for a check-up and “refresher” treatment (commonly suggested for those with significant arthritis), she continued to have no pain in her knee and she has been able to keep up with her new, increased level of physical activity. A little while later, we received this email from Mrs. M: ely painful ars with extrem a number of ye r te placement re af nt ee de kn e on very desp d one complet an e ur did not ed “I had become oc th pr ic thritic knee at One arthroscop mely painful ar tion in tre ica ex ed arthritic knees. e m on in ith pa d to deal w prescription on t en nd pe later I continue de d g and remaine require replacin Centre basic level. ry ve a on n Solaj Wellness tio order to func bmitted by the su r would it pe at pa l th ca as lo article in our m the article w fro an ok ad to re I I t ything in en an Th main po willing to try r Therapy.

Sunnyside Manor, an assisted-living residence, is designed to be warm and
inviting in an English manor-style setting. The goal is to make residents feel like they are at home, but with the additional support they require. Keeping active and socializing with other residents are important aspects in both retirement residences.

Choices foster self-sufficiency â&#x20AC;ş from page 21 Over at Pacific Carlton, there are raised garden boxes so residents can plant their flowers without kneeling, and the new five-foot fish tank in the lobby has quickly become a gathering spot among those who live there. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Both residences have a homey feeling. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s good to be around people who are like-minded,â&#x20AC;? says Samantha Wright, general manager of Pacific Carlton Retirement Community, where multiple choices in the â&#x20AC;&#x153;elegant, but not too stuffyâ&#x20AC;? dining room help foster independence among residents. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Residents get to choose from four dishes for dinner. And we have great food, just like you would cook at home,â&#x20AC;? says Wright, adding residents have the chance to enjoy favourite meals, while discovering new ones. Pacific Carltonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s spacious suites â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the largest in B.C. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; with in-suite laundry help residents maintain their
self-sufficiency. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I had a lady who lives here tell me, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;this is why Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m here.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Being able to do her own laundry in her own unit meant a lot to her,â&#x20AC;? says Wright. The retirement residence, including the resort-like lobby, is designed to feel relaxed and cozy with high ceilings and warm wood tones.Both Sunnyside Manor and Pacific Carlton have suites with fireplaces, creating a welcoming, home-like atmosphere. Being pet-friendly is another important perk residents enjoy. As for staying active, both retirement residences offer activities including group exercise classes, movie nights, card games, as well as bus service to malls, parks and restaurants.

South Surrey baseball/softball player Claire Eccles tabbed for national-team duty
Two-sport star set to pitch in Japan Nick Greenizan

Sports Reporter
outh Surrey baseball player Claire Eccles is having quite a week. First, the 16-year-old Peninsula native helped lead Team BC to a bronze medal at the 2014 Senior Women Invitational Championships, which were held in Whalley Aug. 14-18. Then, after the tournament’s medal ceremony, Eccles was one of two B.C. players – 21-year-old Nikki Boyd of Whalley being the other – who were named to Canada’s national team. The Canadian squad left Friday afternoon for ❝It’s a little the Women’s nerve-wracking Baseball sometimes – a World Cup, lot of these girls which is set to run beginning are 10 years weekend older than me.❞ this in Miyazaki, Claire Eccles Japan. In addition pitcher to Eccles and Boyd, other Surrey players on Team BC were Paige McDonnell, Sydney Brown, Katelyn Bedwell, Maryse Garcia and Marina DeAngelis. Eccles – who also plays softball with the White Rock Renegades ’97 – will, without question, be among the youngest players in the World Cup, if not the youngest, but if her performance in Whalley is any indication, she won’t be overwhelmed by the experience. At the senior women invitational, Eccles – who pitches and plays in the outfield – finished with two wins, an earned-run average of 0.00 and nine strikeouts in seven and two-thirds of an inning. She was on the mound when B.C. defeated Quebec 1-0 in the third-place tilt. In the semifinals, B.C. lost 4-3 to Alberta. Eccles was no slouch at the plate, either, hitting in the No. 2 spot in B.C.’s order. She finished 3-for6, with a double, triple and four

Above right, Eccles practises with the national team. runs-batted-in. She also walked 11 times to lead the tournament, and her .823 on-base percentage was tops among 125 players in the event. “It’s a little nerve-wracking sometimes – a lot of these girls are
10 years older than me and have played for a long time. I’m usually pretty nervous before (a game) but then I get out there and it’s fine,” said Eccles, from a Guildfordarea hotel she was staying at with her national teammates, before
heading to the airport. Eccles said while she was somewhat surprised to make the national team, she “thought she performed pretty well” in Whalley, where national-team brass were scouting for players.
“I was just really excited at first, when I heard I’d made it,” she said. “But then I realized I had to pack really quick and get ready to leave, so it all happened really fast.” Since taking to the ball diamond as a youngster, Eccles has continued to play both softball and baseball; this past spring she played midget AA baseball for White Rock-South Surrey in addition to suiting up for the Renegades. And while the basics of both games are generally the same, there are adjustments that need to be made, she said. “Pitching is different, the size of the fields, the ball… but playing both sports has helped me, I think,” she said. “I think I’m a better softball player because I’ve played baseball.” The World Cup runs from Sept. 1-7. In addition to Canada, other teams taking part are the United States, Japan, Australia, Venezuela, Chinese-Taipei, the Netherlands and Hong Kong. – with files from Rick Kupchuk

Forward part of Canadian U18 hockey team
Cloverdale’s Soy wins gold Tyler Soy returned home from the Memorial of Ivan Hlinka U18 international hockey tournament with a gold medal. The Cloverdale native played for Canada’s national team at the eight-team competition staged in Slovakia and the Czech Republic Aug. 12-16. Canada won all five games played, claiming the gold medal
in the tournament final on the tournament’s last day. A forward with the Victoria Royals of the Western Hockey League (WHL), Soy tallied twice and assisted on four other goals in five games played. He got at least one point in four of the five games Canada played, but was on the scoresheet in every game. He took his only penalty
of the tournament, a delay of game minor, in the gold-medal contest. Soy completed his first full season in the WHL last spring, tallying 15 goals and 30 points in 65 games played. He went back to Victoria last week, in time to report for the Royals’ training camp. – Rick Kupchuk

ELSIE SARAH (PALMER) FEB 14TH 1934, - AUG 12TH 2014 It is with sadness we announce the sudden but peaceful passing of Elsie Moon. Left to celebrate a life well lived and to cherish her memory are her Daughter Pamela Moon and husband Kevin Kerwin, brothers Bill (Irene) Palmer, Len (Ina) Palmer, sister in law Diane (Ron) Bruce, and brother in law Robert ( Barbara ) Moon, as well as Her sweet heart Harvey Kuzmaniuk and her lifelong friend Evelyn Loree. Elsie had very special relationships with her many cousins, nieces and nephews and cultivated lasting and close friendship across the country which she cherished and nurtured. She also embraced her children’s friends as family and their children and was fortunate to be loved and called Grandma Moon by Sophie and Jake. Elsie was predeceased by her Husband Daniel C Moon, beloved son Daniel Jody; her brother, Jack Palmer and his wife Audrey. Raised on a farm in Grandview, Manitoba, Mom was taught the beauty and miracle of nature, all things practical, how things worked, to play many musical instruments, square dancing and the appreciation of life’s simple pleasures. Valedictorian of both high school and her 1958 graduating class of the Dauphin School of Nursing, Mom had a very keen mind and a thirst for knowledge which never waned. Elsie married Danny in 1959 and they created a life that took them from coast to coast and many places in between. Where ever she hung her hat she would create home for her family, a good life, friendships, and always a garden. Her many talents and interests included playing and listening to music , dancing , canoeing , volunteering , birding , gardening, camping , curling , traveling to name only a few as she was an adventuress and always “game” to try something new. She found joy in the little things, peace in nature, a strong love and pride of her country. She had a personality with a gravitational pull and had an amazing sense of humour, she loved to laugh; she was a good listener, wise, kind and generous. The family would like to send a special thank you to Dr E. Shukin, Petra, for the amazing care and friendship given to Elsie (Nurse Next Door), to her friends and neighbours in her beautiful community who always care and look out for each other Elsie’s wishes were that her remains are to be with scattered at the Lake of the Woods to be with her son and husband. In lieu of flowers a donation can be made in Elsie’s memory to the White Rock and Surrey Naturalist Society: P.O. Box 75044, RPO White Rock, Surrey BC, V4A 0B1.
