Real estate council suspends licence of 8th Avenue Elite Realty ‘in the public interest’
Shutdown sidelines nearly 70 agents Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter
A South Surrey brokerage firm has had its licence suspended “in the public interest,” after allegedly failing to account for monies entrusted to them by clients. A news release issued Thursday by the Real Estate Council of B.C. indicates the suspension levied against 8th Avenue Elite Realty Ltd. took effect two days earlier and remains in effect “until further notice.” “8th Avenue Elite Realty Ltd. is prohibited from providing real estate services to or
on behalf of any member of the public as a result of this order,” the release states. The order was issued under Sec. 45 of the Real Estate Services Act, which pertains to orders issued in “urgent circumstances.” Marilee Peters, communications officer for the provincial regulatory agency, told Peace Arch News Thursday that she could not disclose when investigation into the brokerage began, the value of monies unaccounted for or the number of clients affected. She did say that such orders are “fortunately, a rare occurrence.”
Peters said “slightly less than 70” real estate agents were licensed under 8th Avenue, which was operating out of Morgan Creek Corporate Centre, at 210-15252 32 Ave. “Because the brokerage’s licence has been suspended, their licence is inoperative,” Peters said of the associated agents. However, the disciplinary step does not prevent those agents from transferring their licence to another brokerage. Efforts to contact officials at 8th Avenue were unsuccessful. The business’s website has been taken down, the second-floor office
is dark and calls to the phone number listed for contact were met with a busy signal. A note posted on the brokerage’s Facebook page Aug. 25 appeals for information on the whereabouts of two individuals. “The staff has left and the commission cheques are not being paid!” writes Julia Greene. “Please contact the Real Estate Council if you know anything…” According to the firm’s cached website, the “real estate brokerage and real estate education center” opened on Jan. 11, 2013, offering “a new brand in real estate.”

Arts fundraiser marks pier’s 100th anniversary
Party of the century ‘bears repeat’ Alex Browne & Tracy Holmes Staff Reporters
It was billed as the party of the century, and Semiahmoo Arts executive director Mary Brunet said the Aug. 28 Party On The Pier fundraiser – celebrating the 100th anniversary of White Rock’s iconic landmark and the 40th anniversary of the arts group –
was a definite success. And Mayor Wayne Baldwin was so impressed, he is predicting similar soirees on the waterfront structure will become “at least” an annual event. “A couple times a summer, it could work,” Baldwin told Peace Arch News Friday. “It’s a heritage structure, doesn’t mean it can’t be used.”
Brunet said close to 500 people, including ticket-holding guests, volunteers, entertainers and staff gathered at the pier Thursday evening to mingle and socialize to the sounds of the Powder Blues Band and Mostly Marley, who entertained at the breakwater-end of the illuminated structure. i see page 2

‘Humbled by this community’ i from page 1 “It went wonderfully,” Brunet said, noting more than 370 people paid the $100 ticket price for the event, with funds benefiting the organization’s programs to support visual, performing and literary arts on the Peninsula. “It all went smoothly – people were dancing and party-goers were happy, and the majority stayed right to the end, at 10 p.m.” Baldwin described the evening as “a lot of fun, really a neat experience,” and commended the organizing committee for a job well done. They “probably set a blueprint for future events like that,” he said, noting he would only entertain requests to host notfor-profit functions. Council voted unanimously in May to back the anniversary party, including about $3,500 in in-kind contributions from the city. At the time, Baldwin expressed concern with the event’s proximity to an active rail line in combination with the availability of alcohol. He said Friday that trains did roll by during the function, but there were no disruptions as a result. Tickets to the party were limited to 700. Those who didn’t want to spend the $100 had access to the first 200 feet of the pier.

‘Art’ was front and centre at the pier party. Baldwin said that while there were people who wanted to access the pier without a ticket, he heard no complaints overall. Lit-up sailboats and paddle-boarding passersby were added highlights of the evening, Baldwin said. Brunet paid tribute to the event’s many sponsors – including local restaurants – who picked up many of the costs of the evening, and a “wonderful response from volunteers.” “We have a very generous community,” she said. “I’m… humbled by everyone’s support.” Brunet said it would probably take a few days to assess how much money was raised. “It was definitely a successful fundraiser, and that only helps the arts in our community.”

Residents warned to secure windows, as search for attacker continues
Girl, 9, lured from her North Surrey home Kevin Diakiw Black Press
Surrey RCMP have issued a second alert to the public after a nine-year-old girl was taken from her bedroom and sexually assaulted Wednesday night. The investigation is in its early stages, and while it does not appear to be linked to two other recent sexual assaults – Aug. 18 in South Surrey and Aug. 8 in White Rock – the possibility has not been ruled out. Police were alerted to the latest incident – in a neighbourhood near 99 Avenue and 128 Street – at about 10:40 p.m. Aug. 27, when a mother reported that her daughter had been abducted from her bedroom. When Mounties arrived, they were told
the girl was lured out of her window by an unknown male, who took her to a nearby park and sexually assaulted her. She was then taken to a nearby yard, where she was told by the attacker to remain until he left. The child complied, then ran home, and was subsequently taken to hospital. As of Peace Arch News long-weekend press deadline Friday, her assailant remained at large and officers continued to canvass the neighbourhood for anyone who may have seen something out of the ordinary that night. “This is a priority, and we’ve redeployed members from other units, and they’re out there hitting the asphalt right now,” Sgt. Dale Carr said. A description of the attacker was also not
yet available Friday. Surrey’s Special Victims Unit is leading the investigation, assisted by the Lower Mainland District Forensic Identification Section and other units. Carr said the young victim is doing “as well as anyone could expect.” Investigations of the two previous assaults are also ongoing. White Rock RCMP Const. Shaileshni Molison said Thursday that police have received “a number” of tips regarding the Aug. 8 incident, in which a 40-year-old woman was “accosted by an unknown male” while walking her dog in the 1500-block of Merklin Street around 3 a.m. A man was seen running from the area with a small dog running behind him.
There have been no similar incidents in the seaside city since, Molison said. In the South Surrey incident, a 38-year-old woman reported being attacked at about 9:40 p.m. Aug. 18, while walking on a trail near tennis courts in Alderwood Park. Police say the assailant threw the victim to the ground and threatened her, then tried to remove her clothes and drag her into nearby bushes. In light of the latest incident in Surrey, police are asking residents to ensure that their homes are properly secured, groundfloor windows in particular. For other homesecurity tips, visit www.surrey.rcmp.ca Anyone with information about the incident is asked to call the Surrey RCMP Serious Crime unit at 604-599-0502.
Discovery ‘troubling’
Seal deaths still studied Alex Browne Staff Reporter
Two seal deaths reported in White Rock late last month can’t be officially confirmed as gunshot victims. Fisheries and Oceans Canada Pacific marine mammal co-ordinator Paul Cottrell told the Peace Arch News last week that he cannot say, from a preliminary examination, whether the adult leopard seal, discovered Aug. 21, and the pup, discovered Aug. 24, died as a result of bullet wounds. But, he said, White Rock resident Lee Lewis – who reported the mammals washed ashore– did the right thing in sounding the alarm. “It’s always troubling when you get a clustering of deaths,” Cottrell, a South Surrey resident said, adding that Fisheries and Oceans takes any report of a disturbance to marine wildlife, including the killing of marine mammals, seriously. “It’s illegal to disturb them, and killing one is the ultimate problem,” he said, adding that the maximum fine for anyone convicted of deliberately killing a marine mammal could be as high as $500,000. He said further examination is necessary to determine how the recently discovered seals died. “The pup is likely one that was weaned,” he said. “It’s hard to tell the cause of death – unfortunately it’s missing its head. For the other, older animal, the cause of death is also not clear – it may be a bullet wound but that is not confirmed yet.” Cottrell said puncture wounds in the carcasses, which might appear to observers to be bullet hits, may, in fact, be post-mortem marks of vultures or other raptors, or landbased predators, such as coyotes. “If anybody has any information regarding the animals, we’re asking that they come forward,” he said. Shooting of seals is not unknown, he acknowledged, “although it’s not as common as it used to be.” Time is of the essence in reporting any case of injured or entangled marine mammals, he added. “What people should do is call us, stay back and document,” he said. “The more eyes and ears out there, the better.”

Education Minister Peter Fassbender announces funds are now available for a new Surrey project that was first announced in February 2013.
Teachers strike quickly becomes hot topic during subsequent media scrum
Province re-announces new school Kevin Diakiw Black Press
A year-and-a-half after making the commitment, the province announced last week it will now provide funds to build a new high school in Surrey and put additions onto three elementary schools, two of which are in South Surrey. The province called a media conference Thursday morning to re-announce the construction of a $55-million high school in Clayton North, as well as $9.4 million in classroom additions. About $46 million of the combined costs is being funded by the province, while the school district has committed to $19 million. The new school will provide 1,500 spaces for students from Grade 8 to 12, helping relieve cramped conditions at Clayton Heights and Lord Tweedsmuir secondary schools. The government already committed to the project back in February 2013, but until Thursday, had not come through with the muchneeded funds in the rapidly growing neighbourhood. It’s anticipated the school will be completed by spring 2017. In addition, 16 new classrooms were announced for three overcrowded elemen-

drop money out of the sky and fix these problems right away, there’s processes – we’ll get through it.❞ Shawn Wilson tary schools, including Rosemary Heights and Morgan in South Surrey and Adams Road in Cloverdale. Their construction is scheduled to get underway this fall. With schools overcapacity by about 4,000 students, Board of Education chair Shawn Wilson was asked how much it helps to have only 1,500 more high school spaces two years from now. “I think this goes a long way to getting us to a place where we can manage more efficiently,” Wilson said. “You can’t just drop money out of the sky and fix these problems right away, there’s processes – we’ll get through it.”
The government announcement was quickly eclipsed by media questions about the protracted labour dispute with B.C. teachers, which, barring an unexpected agreement over the weekend, will have delayed the planned start to the school year today (Tuesday). Education Minister Peter Fassbender, who is also the MLA for Surrey-Fleetwood, dodged specifics about negotiations, noting he is hopeful they are in the hands of mediator Vince Ready. Last Wednesday, the province proposed a two-week truce between the B.C. Teachers’ Federation and B.C. Public School Employers Association to at least allow B.C. schools to reopen as scheduled while a mediated settlement is pursued. Ready was meeting with the BCTF and government negotiator Peter Cameron Friday. (Any decision in the matter would have occurred after Peace Arch News’ early long-weekend press deadline. Visit www. peacearchnews.com for updates). During the funding announcement, Fassbender clarified that the capital money for the school construction is entirely separate from operating money that would potentially be required to settled the teachers’ dispute.

Class warfare
Y
ou expect students to be on edge at the prospect of returning to school – while parents breathe a quiet sigh of relief after a long summer. But thanks to the ongoing labour dispute, our nerves are all a little frayed – as parents contemplate childcare arrangements, and the standoff between the BC Teachers Federation and the Ministry of Education shows every sign (as of this writing, at least) of dragging on. Rather than celebrating a prolonged holiday, many students are impatient to get the inevitable return over with. Compounding the confusion are union leaders who have underestimated the will of our elected officials, and mixed messages from Education Minister Peter Fassbender, who’s made it clear he has no interest in legislating teachers back to work. Indeed, it appears his government, of all stakeholders, is the least concerned with finding a genuine solution. Why else would it sooner offer parents $40 per day to subsidize childcare, than provide what could be seen as a reasonable offer? This gesture – about equal to the estimated $12 million saved in the strike – is hard to reconcile with “where is the money coming from?” arguments he’s advanced. People can also be forgiven for being confused by the ministry’s multiple pockets. The one in which it keeps $46 million in capital funds for last week’s re-announced planned Clayton North high school is not, we’re told, the same pocket in which it keeps funds for staff wages. And we should definitely not interpret the timing of the announcement as a diversion; it’s merely “business as usual” at the ministry – though circumstances appear to be anything but. Also overshadowing attempts to mediate the current dispute is the ongoing court case over Bill 28, with which the government, 12 years ago, eliminated teachers’ rights to negotiate class sizes and composition. It’s interesting the BC Liberals are proposing a new clause that would allow either side to opt out, should they be unhappy with the outcome of the court case. Given that the B.C. Supreme Court has twice found the government bargained in bad faith – a decision under appeal – it would appear only one party could ultimately benefit from such a clause. Given the lack of movement on both sides of the bargaining table, students, parents and other taxpayers can be forgiven for wondering if it’s the so-called leaders who should first be returning to class.

most international travelers. A survey by Bella Coola Valley Tourism in mid-summer found most operators losing business, from 10 to 90 per cent. A bus tour of Canadian seniors heading west from Williams Lake was terminated after 14 years. One tourism operator on Highway 20 is considering closing down. Stone and his family took the new route themselves in early August, with the minister offering sunny reports on his blog. Stone summed up his experience this way: “At the end of the day, my assessment is that the Nimpkish is a good tourism product if tourists are made fully aware as to the type of service it provides. If correct expectations are set, I believe the Nimpkish can be marketed as a valuable tourism component of the Discovery Coast Circle Tour. “The decision to do this rests squarely on the shoulders of the tourism industry and tourism operators who need to decide whether or not they want this service to work, to grow and to be viable in order to capture a share of the thousands of international tourists looking for exactly the kind of adventure the Nimpkish provides.” Got that, Discovery Coast tourism folks? If this milk run doesn’t work next year, it will be your fault. Heck, the Nimpkish has free snacks and drinks for your 10-hour voyage, much of it in the dark.

Putting a price on our pier Editor: In regards to the ‘100th birthday of the White Rock pier’ celebrations held last Thursday, it’s very hard to believe that the community as a whole was not able to access the pier on this occasion unless you had a $100 to hand over. Whose pier is it, if it is not the people of White Rock and the tourists who come to enjoy it? Very sad state of affairs that the organizers could not have created a venue that would have complemented the pier as it was in the beginning – a meeting place for families to enjoy. As it is, the White Rock beach area already costs money to come and park. I grew up in White Rock since 1956 and have lived in the area my whole life. Our family home was on Victoria Avenue, I went to all the schools in this community and feel that it is all of ours to share – and not for $100 a ticket. All the people that came out should have had access to the pier. And if some wanted to pay to drink or eat what was offered, they could have had a stamp on their hands for that part of the event. Sad sad sad. Mike Herrick, Langley
and ends by stating that it’s located in “the heart of White Rock.” But its address, as shown in the accompanying ad, is shown as 15501 16 Ave., South Surrey. That’s not the heart of White Rock! And then, throughout the issue, as usual, there are many businesses who claim, in their name and/or in their listed address, that they’re in White Rock, but who are actually in South Surrey. The only one that’s got it the other way around is White Rock’s wonderful Tapestry Music, at 1335 Johnston Rd., which claims to have “South Surrey’s largest selection of guitars, drums…”. I’d urge Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts and White Rock Mayor Wayne Baldwin to bring in city bylaws that fine any business that claims, through its name or otherwise, to be in a city in which it’s not. White Rock is not South Surrey. Geoff Dean, Surrey
Lack of planning Editor: Re: Tree cuts stabilize, Aug. 12. Finally, I see that someone on Surrey’s Environmental Sustainability Advisory Committee has become concerned about terribly irresponsible tree cutting in
South Surrey. I also found out while reading the article that the situation is even worse than I thought. The City of Surrey issued 8,796 permits to cut down the trees since the year of 2013. Annual average, according to city planners, is 9,100. This drop is due to the downturn in the economy. Now I am glad we had a downturn in the economy, otherwise we would have had a much higher figure in tree cutting. Mayor Dianne Watts thinks the stabilization is due to implementation of the Tree Preservation Bylaw. I do not trust the mayor, and I am curious when city planners became aware of the existence of this bylaw? Just now? After so many beautiful mature trees have been cut down, having left us with congested living, heavy street traffic and a powerful overwhelming high-voltage electric line that now dominates even more over South Surrey? Have you ever seen, in any civilized city, that residential subdivisions can be built around a high-voltage electrical line on a major scale? Their existence does not contribute to the beauty of South Surrey in the first place. Now that many mature tall trees have gone, those lines are even more dominant. I am curious whether the city planners studied science at school. Looks like they have not because, if they did, they probably would know
trees improve the quality of air by absorbing carbon and cars’ toxic exhaust fumes. Instead, they are rushing to issue construction and tree-cutting permits to developers. And now we are aware of the results of this tedious job. Now we see how a used-to-be-best-place for living South Surrey area is turning into a congested residential place where it is becoming difficult to move around and breath. The city and their developers must do a better job planning and have more trees to plant instead of cutting them down unnecessarily. I am a grandmother of three grandchildren, and I am very happy that they live in London, England. They live in a great city where they have the largest number of trees grown per person in the world and they can spend quality time in numerous gorgeous civilized parks, at least three of them only a 15 minute-drive from their home. Would they live on 156 Street in South Surrey, I would be worried where to take them to play and ride their colourful bikes. In our area, in the circle of several kilometres, there is only one small children’s playground. I blame irresponsible city planners who do not do their job well and greedy developers who want to use every square inch of the land they purchased from the city. Tash Kinsley, Surrey

Bring on the fashion police Editor: On a recent trip to Paris, France, I was shocked to see so many people jaywalking across busy streets. There were almost as many jaywalkers there as there are here in White Rock! But what amazed and delighted me – and apparently Parisians – was that the jaywalkers were always beautifully dressed. I say that this delighted the Parisians because the jaywalkers were allowed to cross safely even across the death-defying 10 lanes of the Champs Elysees. Our own jaywalkers could learn a lot from the stylish Parisians. Dress nicely. Cross fashionably. Break the law with flair. If our traffic police are powerless to control the jaywalkers – as they appear to be – perhaps we could have some fashion police to improve the view if nothing else. Janice Routledge, White Rock

In your Aug. 26 edition, there’s a lovely story (Whitecliff celebrates 25 years) about a retirement residence. The story gleefully reports on the White Rock community’s celebration of Whitecliff ’s 25th anniversary,

Planned chain-link mesh along East Beach is a ridiculous solution in the name of safety, writes Don Robertson.
Stop-gap measure won’t work Editor: We keep on playing this game of trains, and despite all the talk, talk, talk we seem to be going nowhere except continuing to cater to BNSF. With Transport Canada in their pocket, as well an environmentally friendly Port Metro Vancouver, now the White Rock taxpayers are being told to pay for the beefing-up of the perimeter fencing along the tracks (Mesh fencing hoped to reduce train whistles, Aug. 28). As we all know, any such solution is stop-gap and won’t work. This is a completely ridiculous solution, as the whole question is actually: should the railway be permitted to operate through built-up areas, namely White Rock’s foreshore, carrying not just a toxic grade of coal but a menu of highly dangerous cargoes? At one time this was probably acceptable in a thensparsely populated area. As with few trains with modest contents, no one objected. Now, with the threat of some 640 coal trains per annum commencing next year, on top of other goods and Amtrak, plus a cacophony of innovative whistles offered by engineers, we have an interesting future in our ‘City by the Railroad Tracks.’
The simple answer to all this waffling is to move the traffic elsewhere to rails made for heavier rolling stock, to avoid the constant shaking of our unstable soil base and removing the threat to our growing community. When the feds dictate that local taxpayers should spend their money to create a concentration-camp look along our waterfront, our democracy is increasingly shaky. Let’s have a referendum on the matter to include the fact that council is not authorized to spend our money on propping up this illusion of safety being created by Transport Canada’s s outlandish fencing ideas. Local politicians made loud noises last year about moving the railroad from our community, but that initial rush of common sense must have disturbed someone up top, as there has been a great deal of silence ever since. I urge city council to resist these arbitrary moves and put the whole scenario back where it belongs, instead of wrapping the problem in mediocre constraints in our ‘City behind the Chicken-Wire Fencing.’ The simple message is that the railway must go.

historical p p perspective
Decades later, a unique community picnic was prompted by a mischief-maker on a March night in 1950 when the iconic ‘white rock’ was painted black. After much agonized discussion, the Board of Trade, sponsors of the project to clean the paint off the rock, invited the public to make a picnic of the affair. For longtime residents, not much equals the nostalgia aroused by the mention of outings originating from White Rock Pier, aboard the Lady Alexandra or one of her sister ships bound for Victoria or Bowen Island. The first venture, billed as a businessmen’s picnic excursion, to Victoria in 1931, was the brainchild of White Rock realtor George Thrift, who convinced Surrey council to
declare the day a civic holiday. The event was such a success that the following year the steamship was chartered to sail under the Surrey Citizens Picnic banner. By 1940, the civic holiday had become the norm, “to enable citizens of Surrey to attend the Surrey Municipality Annual Basket Picnic.” Reminiscent of Leacock’s Mariposa Belle, the vessel typically arrived in White Rock about 6:30 a.m. to sound its whistle every 15 minutes until it left the pier at 8 a.m., reaching Victoria at 12:30 p.m. The day-trippers were back in White Rock at 9:30 p.m. The round trip cost $2.

Ship turned into floating restaurant i from page 9 White Rock in 1947, ready to transport eager excursionists to Victoria. In 1949, the ANAF sponsored excursion to Victoria attracted 650 passengers. Often, the ship was under the command of Captain Billy Yates, a sometime resident of White Rock. A colourful character, he was renowned for having the orchestra play Aloha Oe repeatedly on the trip home. In The Good Company, author Tom Henry gives this picture of Yates: “Aboard the Lady Alex, Cappy Yates had his own set of rules – often Billy Yates at variance captain with those of the company. Union Steamships insisted on ship limits, but under Yates, the Lady Alex, licensed for 1,400 passengers, often carried 2,000. The company also wanted ships to arrive and depart on time. Captain Yates arrived and departed when he felt like it. Once he even held up an entire ship so a crew member could retrieve a child’s hat.” He adds, “the relationship between Cappy Yates and the Lady Alex lasted throughout the 1930s and ’40s. By 1951 the cruise and excursion business was falling off, a result of an increasing fascination with the automobile for holiday transportation

Four Cops for Cancer bicycle teams will pedal around B.C. to raise money for pediatric cancer research.
Riders tour BC this month to raise money, awareness
Cops for Cancer hits road More than 100 police officers and emergency services personnel will slip into spandex, strap on their helmets and hit the road next month as part of the the annual Cops for Cancer cycling tours to raise awareness and money for pediatric cancer research. A total of 107 cyclists will participate in four different tours that will visit businesses and schools from Fort St. John in the province’s north to the southernmost reaches of Vancouver Island. “For more than 15 years, communities throughout the Fraser Valley have welcomed us, hosting events that we look forward to each year,� says rider Trevor Sales, the team captain for the Tour de Valley, which takes riders from Tsawwassen to Boston Bar. “It’s hard to describe the feeling when you see the lengths people go to, welcoming and supporting the riders, because they too believe that no child should have
to face cancer.� In addition to the Tour de Valley, the Tour de Rock will cover Vancouver Island, the Tour de North will travel through northern British Columbia from Prince George to Prince Rupert (with a stop in Kitimat), and the Tour de Coast will journey around Greater Vancouver and up to Powell River and Pemberton. While the rides begin in September, the cyclists are already in the midst of their fundraising and training efforts. On Saturday, for example, Tour de Valley riders – including White Rock RCMP Const, Gregg Holland – embarked on a day-long, 160-kilometre ride beginning and ending in Abbotsford. “All Cops for Cancer riders take part in rigorous training – they need to learn how to pace themselves and ride in a peloton,� says Allan Mugford, Fraser Valley regional director for the Canadian

Cancer Society. “But what they can never prepare for is the emotional impact of seeing a child with cancer and the toll it takes on their entire family.� The Cops for Cancer campaign runs through September, with money raised going to fund leading edge cancer research and support programs operated by the Canadian Cancer Society like Camp Goodtimes.

Project by activists comes as Burnaby surveying begins
Fraser drift-card drop to simulate oil spill Kolby Solinsky Black Press
While Kinder Morgan was beginning survey work on Burnaby Mountain this week, the City of Vancouver was holding a pipeline spill simulation on the Fraser River, releasing yellow cards to estimate the reach of a potential oil spill. Vancouver launched the simulation in cooperation with the Rainforest Conservation Foundation and the Georgia Strait Alliance, on both the Fraser and Burrard Inlet. The drift cards consist of small pieces of plywood marked with numbers, said Andy Rosenberger of the Rainforest Conservation Foundation. “We take them and we put them into the river. Eventually, they will wash up on shore,” he said. The yellow cards are biodegradable and carry with them messages, allowing those who find them to enter their location on the test’s interactive Salish Sea Spill Map at salishseaspillmap.org “Every single card has a distinct identification number that we can track,” said Ross Dixon of the Rainforest Conservation Foundation. “We track the exact location of where the cards end up, so we have an indication of the potential spatial extent of an oil spill affecting this area.” The $5.4-billion Trans Mountain pipeline expansion project aims to twin the existing 60-year-old pipeline that carries petroleum from Alberta to Kinder Morgan’s tanker terminal in Burnaby on Burrard Inlet. The new pipeline would tunnel under the Fraser River near the Port Mann Bridge,

The twinning would nearly triple Trans Mountain’s capacity to 890,000 barrels of oil per day and greatly increase the number of tankers passing through Vancouver harbour.

Mountain is the final piece that still needs to be assessed to satisfy the National Energy Board. “When you do a project of this nature, you know there’s going to be all kinds of different opinions about the project,” Johannesson said. “We’re looking at it from the perspective that it’s a national project.

a full opportunity for people, including the City of Burnaby, to make presentations and to provide information to the board.” The City of Burnaby has vowed to do what it can to block the project. At the site of the simulation, the George Strait Alliance’s Alexandra Woodsworth reiterated her group’s concern for the pipeline and for what a spill would do to the water in and around Vancouver and B.C. “There is no cure once the oil hits the water,” she said. “We’re looking at 15, 20, 30 per cent recovery rates. In these kind of high-consequence events, we are looking at real devastation to our marine environment and also to our economy. When we have such reliance on our beautiful B.C. brand, on tourism, on recreation, all those kinds of things. “These are the reasons British Columbians choose to live here and work here and it’s the reason people choose to visit, is that beauty and that natural abundance that we have here, that would really be at risk by an oil spill.” – with files from Mario Bartel

…on the Semiahmoo Peninsula
Two pitchers part of gold-medal win in Newfoundland
Boyd, Broatch win national baseball title Nick Greenizan Sports Reporter
Leon Boyd’s medal collection continues to grow. The 31-year-old Semiahmoo Peninsula native – and former White Rock Triton – was part of the Langley Blaze senior team that won gold at Canadian senior men’s national championships Aug. 24 in St. John’s, Nfld. The Blaze won the championship game with a 3-0 win over Ontario’s Tecumseh Thunder. “From the moment the plane landed in St. John’s, the guys were focused on winning and getting the job done,” said Blaze assistant coach Steve Petersen. Boyd didn’t pitch against Tecumseh – Shane Kraemer went the distance on the mound
– but saw action against Manitoba, pitching four-and-two-thirds of an inning. Boyd wasn’t the only local player on the squad. Pitcher Jordan Broatch – who, like Boyd, is another Tritons alum who now coaches White Rock’s U16 Jr. Tritons – was on the roster, as were Surrey’s Dillon Reynolds and Mason Cratty. For Boyd, the title is Leon Boyd another is a long list of accomplishments on the baseball diamond. A dual Canadian-Dutch citizen, the pitcher also won a world championship with the
Netherlands national team, and also has a Holland Series Dutch league title – with his Netherlands pro squad – under his belt. “I’ve been incredibly lucky to have been given the opportunities I have in baseball,” Boyd said. “The trifecta is pretty cool.” Boyd also pitched for the Netherlands at the 2008 Jordan Broatch Summer Olympics in Beijing. Boyd has also been involved in some of the most memorable international baseball moments in recent years.
He was part of the Dutch squad that twice pulled off massive upsets over highly ranked teams at the World Baseball Classic. In 2009, he was on the mound when the Netherlands twice defeated the high-powered Dominican Republic, and at the 2013 WBC, the Dutch beat Cuba 6-2. His performance in 2009 earned him a professional contract from the Toronto Blue Jays. After two seasons in the Jays’ organization, he was released, and returned to the Dutch pro league. He retired from pro ball a few seasons ago, and last spring announced his retirement from international play with the Dutch national squad. – with files from Gary Ahuja

n the spring of 2007, the Vancouver Giants were deep into a Western Hockey League playoff run that, a few weeks later, would culminate with a Memorial Cup championship – major junior hockey’s top prize. But first, the Giants had to get past the Medicine Hat Tigers in the Western Hockey League final. So, in an attempt to give his Giants’ teammates as much of an advantage as possible, Vancouver’s backup goaltender Blaine Neufeld – who had played in Medicine Hat the previous two seasons – found
himself in the team’s video room, Surrey Eagles’ new head coach in helping the coaching staff break July – finds himself, just as his old down tape of his old team. coach predicted. During one particular stretch It’s funny how things work out. of video study, Giants’ “I was pretty surprised coach Don Hay – one ❝It’s been a bit of when Don said that of the most successful a whirlwind.

But when a guy like Don “You know, you’re going to be a says that, you listen, and start to great coach one day.” think maybe he’s right.” Fast forward a few years, and After the Giant’s Memorial Cup behind a bench is exactly where title, Neufeld – a Winkler, Man. Neufeld – who was named the native – played his final year of
junior hockey for the Grande Prairie Storm of the Alberta Junior Hockey League. After his junior career ended, he returned home to Manitoba and began helping out with a majormidget team, eventually taking over the program as head coach. From there, the young coach moved through the ranks, as a goalie coach/assistant coach with the Junior ‘A’ Winkler Flyers, while also working out west with various hockey academies in B.C., as well as with Pro4 Sports – a sports training company now closely associated with the Eagles. Neufeld was originally hired
by the Eagles as their director of hockey operations, and a few months later was tabbed by president Chuck Westgard to take over from departed head coach/ general manager Peter Schaefer. The move – which was long rumoured in local hockey circles – seemed curious at the time, considering Schaefer had taken a rebuilding team, which was just one year removed from a BC Hockey League title, and steered it into the playoffs. But in July, Schaefer and Westgard – who bought out many minority ownership partners in i see page 20

Neufeld influenced by junior coaches Hay, Desjardins i from page 19 the spring – decided a split was best. And though Neufeld has no head-coaching experience at the Junior ‘A’ level – and will be the youngest coach in the BCHL next season – Westgard told PAN earlier this summer that he was not concerned. “He’s not coming out of nowhere. He’s a hockey guy,” he said. Since joining the club’s front
office in April, Neufeld has spent much time trying to familiarize himself with the league and its players. Those efforts have simply been ramped up since adding the head-coaching job to his portfolio. He’s been busy, too, bringing in a handful of players with local ties, while also searching to find replacements for two key forwards – Boston Bruins’ draft pick Danton Heinen and Anthony Conti – who chose to leave for
the NCAA a year earlier than originally expected. “It’s been a bit of a whirlwind,” Neufeld said. “But I’m enjoying it. With the group (of players) we have, I’m very excited. I’ll be busy scouting guys, and trying to find ways to make the team better. You just have to put in the time.” Late month, Neufeld also traded Demico Hannoun – who played last year in Vernon but was a key member of the Eagles during the 2012/13 season – to the Penticton
Vees, in exchange for defenceman Alex Coulombe and future considerations. Hannoun was acquired by the Eagles earlier this offseason. The Eagles’ training camp opens this week, and Neufeld said he’s leaving a few roster spot open to competition. But regardless of how things shake down at camp, the rookie head coach said he’ll draw on lessons learned from two fairly influential former coaches – Hay
and former Medicine Hat bench boss Willie Desjardins, now the head coach of the Vancouver Canucks. “I think I’m a mix of both those guys. They’re both great coaches,” Neufeld said. “Willie is probably more of a ‘players’ coach’ than Don is, but I loved how Don challenged us. “For some guys, maybe that meant getting in our faces a little bit, but he was great. He really pushed us.”

Healthy Skin Naturally
Chinese medicine believes that the majority of skin diseases stem from internal imbalances. This means that our skin needs to heal from the inside out. For thousands of years Doctors of Chinese medicine have thus relied on herbal teas, tailor fit for the individual, as the primary method for healing the skin. Modern research confirms that this ancient practice is both safe and effective, offering good long term remission after the treatment is stopped. Dr. Erikson stocks roughly 300 high quality herbal medicines in his own clinic, the majority of which are either certified organic or have been lab tested to be free of pesticide residues and other contaminants. He refuses to use any endangered or prohibited species. Every patient receives a custom mix of herbal medicines, which are then cooked up into a strong tea using the same stainless-steel pressure cooking technology found in hospitals throughout the world. The strained tea is then packed in vacuum sealed BPA-free satchels, which are easy to use, storing the tea fresh for many weeks duration. All the patient needs to do is open and drink. Chinese medicine also has a long history of applying herbal medicines directly on the skin, through the use of washes, creams ointments and tinctures. Dr. Erikson hand makes all of his own external medicines, using traditional recipes as

the foundation. All the ingredients are plant and/ or mineral based and do not contain any steroids, parabens or petroleum products. All patients with a skin disorder are photographed, both for diagnostic purposes and to monitor progress. Treatment times vary according to the nature and severity of the disorder being treated. The range is anywhere from 2 weeks for athletes foot to well over a year for complicated cases of stubborn psoriasis and/or atopic eczema. Dr. Erikson does not treat skin cancer and if he suspects such a diagnosis he will likely refer the patient away to a western specialist.

Laing’s Sea Island farm. She graduated from Prince of Wales High School and always valued her friendships from those days. After an interesting career at Vancouver City Hall, Emma married George Dunn. Several years after George died Emma married Frank Nagy. She cared for her parents and her late husbands in their illnesses with patience. Emma was the epitome of a lady always kind and polite, and always well dressed. She will be missed by brother Jim, nephews, cousins and friends. Special thanks to all those who made her last months comfortable, but especially to the caregivers at Sunrise of Vancouver including Hans, Jovi and Maritoni. A private burial was held at Valley View Cemetery. Family and friends are invited to a Memorial Service on Saturday, September 6 at 10 am at Kearney Funeral Chapel, 450 West 2nd Ave, Vancouver BC.

It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of our dear mother, Rita, in Surrey on Friday, August 15, 2014 at the age of 88. She was embraced by her family and left us peacefully. She is the daughter of William and Leila Standeven born November 21, 1925. Rita is predeceased by her beloved husband, Hugh, in the year 2000. She is lovingly survived by her children Andrea (Raymond), Leslee (Stafford), Wendy (Dan), Christine (Lee) and Jason (Lori). As well, her ten grandchildren, two great-grandchildren, nieces, nephews and sisters-in-law Norma Thompson and Joyce Standeven. Rita graduated from UBC with a BA in English in 1946 and was a member of the Delta Zeta Chapter of Alpha Gamma Delta Fraternity. She had a wonderful life devoted to her husband and children, many friends, her beautiful family homes and, in later years, her love of travel around the world. At Rita’s request, there will be no service. Our heartfelt thanks go to the dedicated staff of Czorny Alzheimer Centre for their compassion and caring for Rita. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Alzheimer Society of BC. Mom, you are forever in our hearts. We love you.
