SAFE SURREY COALITION UNVEILED ▶ FORMER MAYOR DOUG MCCALLUM CREATES NEW SLATE FOCUSED ON FIGHTING CRIME 3
On Tuesday, Surrey mayoral hopeful Doug McCallum revealed his new Safe Surrey Coalition. McCallum has recruited four council candidates to run on a crime-prevention platform in the Nov. 15 civic election. EVAN SEAL

Former Surrey mayor Doug McCallum has recruited four council candidates in hopes of injecting new blood into the civic election campaign for his newly created Safe Surrey Coalition. McCallum stood before a small crowd Tuesday beside the Newton district policing sta-
tion and announced his team, which includes Surrey Now newspaper editor Beau Simpson, lawyer Justin Thind, business owner Rina Gill and community advocate Laurie Guerra. The coalition released more details about McCallum’s election platform, including plans to scrap the city police committee in favour of a Mayor’s Integrated Public Safety

Council. It would be open to the public, except when dealing with legal matters or personnel issues. McCallum – who served as mayor from 1996 until he was defeated by retiring Mayor Dianne Watts in 2005 – vowed to establish minimum thresholds for police service. He said he will double the number of officers on
patrol and accelerate the hiring of 95 more officers by 2015. He said he will also double the number of bylaw officers to 48 and invest $4 million per year into a Crime Prevention Through Social Development Strategy. continued on page 3

▼ POLICE UNIT’S ANNUAL REPORT NOTES MORE BIG CRIME CASES WILL GO TO TRIAL IN 2015 A recent drop in gang violence now has B.C.’s anti-gang police unit looking to the courts for closure on several major outstanding cases.

lated individuals were arrested and charged last year with more than 270 offences in close to 30 B.C. communities, Hackett said. The report’s release
came after the province announced policing cuts that will pare the CFSEU budget by $2.8 million. Much public attention has focused on the Surrey Six murder trial, which concluded in early July. A decision is expected to be handed down Oct. 2 in the case against two of the men accused of killing two innocents along with four other targeted victims. But a separate murder conspiracy trial for Red Scorpions gang member Jamie Bacon is slated to begin next May for his alleged role in the Surrey Six slayings. And there could be two other major gang murder trials in 2015 as well. A trial is expected to begin next year in Kelowna, where Jonathan Bacon was gunned down three years ago. Jujhar Khun-Khun, Michael Kerry Hunter Jones and Jason Thomas McBride face first-degree murder charges as well as four counts each of attempted murder. CFSEU officials say next year could also see the start of a trial against Cory Vallee,
▶ BROAD POLITICAL BACKGROUNDS from page 1
McCallum also promised to shut down every unregulated drug recovery house in the City of Surrey. He says his promises will cost $21 million annually and will be paid for with the elimination of the Surrey City Development Corporation ($10 million each year, with the SCDC owing Surrey $70 million in loans, etc.); 25 per cent of taxation from new residents and business ($5 million); and one per cent in budget savings ($6 million). The savings will include putting an end to the yearly Surrey Regional Economic Summit, McCallum said. “People are fearful in neighbourhoods across Surrey and are looking for leadership, detailed proposals and, most importantly, a plan for action on the issue of public safety,” he said. “The Safe Surrey Coalition represents a group of candidates with diverse community involvement, political affiliations and professional backgrounds that are united by one overpowering concern: public safety.” Safe Surrey Coalition candidates have a broad political background. Gill last ran for council in 2011 as a member of former mayor Bob Bose’s Surrey Civic Coalition, Guerra served as an electoral district association president for the Conservative Party of Canada in Fleetwood-Port Kells, and Thind

worked for Senate speaker Dan Hays in 2002 and is a director-at-large for the federal Liberals’ Newton-North Delta riding association. Simpson, meanwhile, has said he is on leave from his Glacier Media newspaper to run for council. Coun. Linda Hepner was named in June as Watts’ successor as leader of Surrey First, which swept the civic polls in 2011. Surrey businessman Vikram Bajwa and past Rotary president John Edwards also plan to run for mayor. Coun Barinder Rasode, who stepped down from Surrey First in April to serve as an independent, had told The Leader she would run for mayor if Watts retired. She is expected to officially announce her candidacy on Sept. 20 at SFU.

they targeted their rivals.” The six received sentences of seven to 14 years each and although UN Gang leader Barzan Tilli-Choli could be out late in 2018 due to time served, he is expected to then be deported to Iraq. Hackett was optimistic the CFSEU’s edgy End Gang Life campaign (endganglife.ca) will help persuade more gang members to reform. It plays on the emotions of gangsters with imagery of loved ones left behind after they’re dead. The annual report includes statistics on the ethnicity of gang murder victims, where the bodies are typically found (31 per cent inside a car, 20 per cent inside a residence), as well as seasonal patterns in gang violence.

who was mistakenly targeted because he was installing a stereo in a car owned by a Bacon brother. Vallee, who was arrested in August in Mexico and quickly returned to B.C., also faces conspiracy charges in relation to a UN Gang plot to kill the Bacon brothers. Hackett said a joint CFSEU-IHIT investigation also led to murder conspiracy guilty pleas last year against six UN Gang members and associates. He said the gangsters had been “ruthlessly hunting” members of the Bacon crime group in 2008-09, a period during which police efforts also prevented at least two more murders. “They displayed blatant disregard for public safety in what Crown counsel referred to as ‘human safaris’ while

Upgrades could drive vote TransLink thinks a recent poll demonstrates that a referendum on transit spending is winnable. Despite the naysayers among the region’s mayors, who sometimes seem to be the biggest obstacle to transit improvements, the idea of a transit referendum makes a great deal of sense. Instead of ad hoc tax increases like the two cents a litre which mayors came up with at the last minute to help fund the Evergreen Line, residents will get a specific list of suggested transportation improvements and how they can be funded. They can then choose to accept or reject that proposal. The poll results indicate that a majority of those paying attention to this issue would likely support added spending on transit. There is significant support in areas where transit is already a reasonable alternative to driving. But even in areas like Surrey and Langley with fewer transit options, there is decent support. However, the poll indicates that south-of-the-Fraser residents are more opposed to additional taxes to fund TransLink. This is not surprising. People in this area are already paying bridge tolls – something that drivers in other parts of the region do not have to deal with, except on the rare occasion when they venture out on Highway 1 or cross the Golden Ears.
The 35 per cent of south-ofthe-Fraser residents who oppose tax hikes also likely pay more in car expenses than many others. They likely pay higher fees for driving to work, put in more gas, and pay more to maintain their vehicles, which run up mileage faster than many cars owned by people in Vancouver or Burnaby. Interestingly, the two most popular tax options in the poll were universal bridge tolls, which would even out costs among all vehicle owners, and a $75 vehicle tax, also a more evenly-distributed tax burden. Both received 27 per cent support. A one per cent rise in regional sales tax was less popular and a carbon tax had only 15 per cent support. Unlike many mayors, residents know the province isn’t giving any carbon tax revenue to TransLink and they will simply pay even more for fuel than they do now. Simon Fraser University City Program Director Gordon Price, a former Vancouver councillor and transportation expert, says the referendum has a better chance if it is framed about building for the future. If TransLink becomes a focal point, it has less chance of success. That’s likely even more true after a series of SkyTrain breakdowns and the revelation that TransLink senior staff got hefty
raises when there was supposed to be a pay freeze. Surrey could benefit from more transportation funding. The mayors’ ambitious plan calls for more rapid transit and significantly more bus service south of the Fraser. For many Surrey residents to consider a “yes” vote, those improvements must be seen to be coming soon. There have been too many promises over the years that have been slow to materialize – such as rapid bus service over the Port Mann Bridge which only began for Surrey residents last week, with the #555 bus now making a stop at 156 Street. It took the concerted efforts of 18-year-old Daryl Dela Cruz to push the city into spending $193,000 to make the stop finally happen. It should have been done by the province as it was promised as part of the Port Mann Bridge. Nonetheless, it is now reality. Dela Cruz deserves thanks from Surrey residents. Hopefully he and other transit advocates will pay close attention to the promises made about improvements to transit here, as the referendum date nears.

Social media builds trust with police CHIEF CHATS ▼ Jim Cessford
In a relatively short time, social media has made its way into every part of our lives. Not only has it become a core requirement for police to communicate, it has changed public expectation regarding transparency, timeliness and dialogue around police activity. This new form of connectedness is helping close the gap between the public and the police; a citizen can contact us through a variety of avenues, all with the understanding that their voice will be heard, their concerns dealt with or, on some occasions, their compliments of our work published in the public domain. At the beginning, there were fears in policing regarding social media, namely our inability to control it. A lot of questions were asked of our Delta Police Department’s media section: How will we manage a crisis? Will it harm investi-
gative integrity? How do we keep up? Luckily, our fears were very different from the reality of this new social phenomenon. In fact, I look back and wonder how we ever worked without these tools, recognizing now that they are an irreplaceable asset in our attempts to build and maintain public trust. We now have the capacity to push out real-time, factual information. When there is a traffic event causing gridlock, we communicate with pictures, constant updates and options for alternative routes until such time as traffic is flowing freely. If there is a serious criminal event, we may use social media to help reduce fear and keep rumours at bay. We also use it as a recruiting tool and to keep the public informed of our day-today activities. One of our big fears was whether we would be the victims of social media
“lynch-mob.” The reality is that, on the whole, the public is very supportive of the work of police and social media communities exist mostly to help, rather than hinder the role of police. We have been criticized through these channels but we deal with it. Interestingly, social media has also helped us with our relationship with traditional media outlets. We share information through a variety of channels, allowing journalists to gather the information they need to do their job. As an example, we recently had a rolled tractor-trailer unit on Highway 17. We tweeted images to give the public an idea of what we were dealing with. On this particular day, it was righting a flipped semi. On another day it may be used to explain why there is large police presence

in a quiet neighbourhood or to disseminate the image of a missing person. As is the nature of our work, there are times when we are not able to share information with the public. I believe that because we are transparent and consistent in how we communicate, that when those occasions do occur, the public trusts that we are doing our jobs and that we will put out information as soon as we are able. We live in a new age of information sharing and although there were fears at the beginning around the unknown, I believe that social media communities and the public have embraced how the police are using these new tools.

Violating youth rights ▼ STUDENTS ARE THE FUTURE OF B.C.’S ECONOMY AND DESERVE EDUCATION
We are Jessica Fasolino and Shay Welle and currently attend Clayton Heights Secondary. We are only two out of hundreds of thousands of students in the province whose rights are being violated. The rights of all students under the age of 18 are being violated because of the B.C. teachers’ strike. We understand and accept what the BCTF is fighting for: smaller classes, more special education teachers and higher wages. What the government does not seem to comprehend is that the dispute is putting
all of our futures at stake, affecting all of our careers and our economy in years to come. According to the United Nations treaty the Conventions on the Rights of the Child, which Canada signed in 1990 and officially ratified in 1991: “Governments have a responsibility to take all available measures to make sure children’s rights are respected, protected and fulfilled... This involves assessing their social services, legal, health and educational systems, as well as levels of funding for these services.” We are the future of B.C.’s economy and we deserve a right to an education. This needs to be dealt with. Shay Welle and Jessica Fasolino

▼ GOVERNMENT HOLDS ALL THE CARDS IN TEACHERS’ STRIKE I’m so tired of hearing “I’m not taking sides. They are both equally to blame.” Try asking three questions. 1). Why are the schools still closed after four months of negotiations? Answer: While one side has given up much of their demands the other side as made no compromises. 2). Who is responsible for providing a free public education to all students in B.C.? Answer: The provincial government. 3). Why do teachers not just give up and return to work? Answer: They see this as a fight to maintain the quality of public education – not only for their own children but for all children. The government holds all the cards and could end the impasse at any point. They could produce more money or they could legislate an end to the strike. Instead they have broken the law, provoked the union continually and given the false impression they were negotiating when they were not. Whatever you might think of the BCTF, either the government wanted this lengthy confrontation or they have been grossly incompetent over 13 years for not resolving it. Take your pick. Simon Truelove

B.C. businesses bracing for teachers’ strike impact: Survey ▶ NEARLY HALF OF THOSE POLLED FEAR DISPUTE WILL PUMMEL PROFITS JEFF NAGEL
Public Hearing – September 16, 2014 The Municipal Council of The CorporaƟon of Delta will hold a Public Hearing, in accordance with the Local Government Act, to consider the following proposed project and related applicaƟon. Date: Tuesday, September 16, 2014 Time: 7:00 p.m. Place: Main Hall, Kennedy Seniors’ RecreaƟon Centre 11760 88 Avenue, Delta, BC V4C 3C5 A Council meeƟng is scheduled to immediately follow this Public Hearing in the event Council wishes to give further consideraƟon to the project at that Ɵme. Any persons who believe that their interest in property will be aīected by the proposed project shall be given an opportunity to be heard at the Public Hearing on maƩers contained in the bylaw and/or proposed by the applicaƟon.
Nearly half of B.C. small business operators fear the B.C. teachers strike will take a bite out of their profits, according to a Canadian Federation of Independent Business (CFIB) survey of its members. The survey, conducted online
from Aug. 19 to Sept. 9, found 43 per cent expect a negative impact on business if the strike continues, while 47 per cent predicted no effect, four per cent said it would be positive and six per cent said they didn’t know. CFIB Executive Vice-President Laura Jones said top concerns are lost sales, employees with children having to stay home and owners having to work longer hours. “A full-on teachers strike is disruptive for everyone, includ-
ing entrepreneurs,” Jones said. “Business owners are worried about their own businesses as well as the broader consequences of putting B.C.’s budget balance at risk.” Two-thirds of those surveyed said a new contract for teachers should be in line with deals for other public sector unions, 13 per cent said there should be no increase at all, five per cent backed the teachers’ union’s demands and 14 per cent had other responses.
Labour stands with teachers ▶ B.C. FEDERATION BLACK PRESS OF LABOUR As a demonstration COMMITS FINANCIAL of solidarity with striking teachers, affiliates SUPPORT of the B.C. Federation
A speakers list will be available for the public to sign at the entrance to the Public Hearing venue 30 minutes prior to the start of the Public Hearing. Speakers will be asked to come forward in the order of the speakers list and will be allowed up to Įve minutes to address Council regarding the bylaw under consideraƟon.
of Labour (BCFL) made a financial commitment of $8 million in interest-free loans to the B.C. Teachers’ Fed-
eration on Wednesday. “Strikes are tough on everyone. Teachers are giving up their paycheques to defend their rights and demand a high-quality public education system for our children,” said Jim Sinclair, president of the BCFL. “This support will help ensure the government cannot undermine teachers’ rights through financial hardship.” The $8 million was raised from contributions by the B.C. Government Employees Union, Hospital Employees Union , International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers,United Steelworkers, Canadian Office and Professional Employees Union Local 378 , Public Service Alliance of Canada, Federation of Post Secondary Educators, Health Sciences Association, and Unifor. “For years teachers have been at the forefront of the struggle to protect public education and have weathered repeated attacks by the B.C. Liberal government on their rights and professional work,” said Irene Lanzinger, secretary-treasurer of the BCFL. “We are here to tell the Premier Clark that the teachers are not alone; the labour movement is standing with them.”

Rise of wearable tech devices raises distracted driving fears ▶ B.C. COULD TWEAK LAW TO COVER APPLE WATCH: OFFICIALS JEFF NAGEL
The rollout of the new Apple Watch has police and provincial officials monitoring whether B.C.’s distracted driving law is broad enough to bust drivers who use new wearable technology. “We haven’t seen anyone using Google Glass or other wearable electronics yet, but I think it will only be a matter time before we start seeing it more
frequently, especially as new products enter the market,” Delta Police Acting Sgt. Sarah Swallow said. “It will be something we need to monitor,” she said. “These things are only going to get more and more popular.” Along with new iPhones, Apple’s smart watch was unveiled Tuesday and the device will allow users to read and send texts, among many other functions. Swallow is concerned the use of smart watches may not be covered under the sections of B.C.’s distracted driving law that ban the use of handheld electronics. “Something like a

drivers from using any electronic device, not just handheld ones, to send or receive email or texts, but that covers just two of the functions of the new gadgets. Police can also use the Motor Vehicle Act section against driving without due care and attention but, unlike the distracted driving law, officers must see evidence of risky driving to issue the $368 fine and six penalty points. Police have long had that ability to fine drivers who swerve while they adjust stereos, juggle a hot cup of coffee or scold children in the back seat, but the $167 distracted driving fines have been used much more frequently since their 2010 introduction. Sam MacLeod, B.C.’s Superintendent of Motor Vehicles, said his office believes the current distracted driving law is broad enough to capture Google Glass or smart watches, but added the definition of prohibited devices could be expanded if needed. “We will continue to monitor the effectiveness of our legislation against these new technologies and will make changes if needed,” MacLeod said. “We are obviously concerned about the development of any technology that could distract drivers from focusing on the road and the task of driving.” ICBC last month blamed crashes caused by distracted drivers as one factor for a proposed 5.2-per-cent increase in basic insurance rates. On average, 30 people a year are killed in distracted driving crashes in the Lower Mainland, and 88 provincewide. It’s the second leading cause of car fatalities after speed and now is narrowly ahead of impaired driving.”

SPECIALIZING IN FAMILY EYECARE FOR 30 YEARS Jean Hamilton is known for her Frank’s RedHot commercials. PHOTO SUBMITTED
Saucy actress promotes Terry Fox Run ▶ ‘REDHOT’ SPOKESWOMAN COMES TO CLOVERDALE ON SEPT. 14 BLACK PRESS
“I put that s**t on everything!” The line has made actress Jean Hamilton famous, but she admits she didn’t want to say it the first time she saw the script. The determined 91-year-old has faced many things she didn’t foresee in her lifetime, including three bouts with cancer. She’ll be talking about her experiences at this year’s Cloverdale Terry Fox Run at the Cloverdale Legion on Sunday, Sept. 14. Autographed bottles of Frank’s RedHot Sauce will also be available by donation at the annual fundraiser for cancer research. Hamilton’s first experience with cancer was cervical cancer at age 34. Radiation then was not selective, and most of her month in hospital was spent recovering not from the cancer, but from the radiation that had cooked her entire abdominal cavity. She had two young children at the time, “and I just knew that dying wasn’t an option.” When doctors recommended a radical mastectomy after the discovery ▶ “... I just of a lump in her breast knew that when she was 50, Hamilton says, “I decided that dying wasn’t radical treatment was not an option.” on the books any more. I opted for a lumpectomy, JEAN HAMILTON and they removed almost half of my left breast.” Nine years later, the cervical cancer recurred, requiring more surgery. The great-grandmother began her acting career at age 86, after a friend gave her name to an agent. It was her fifth career. She had worked in the T. Eaton Co. mail order house, which she left to pursue an accounting degree while working as a skip tracer. When the Second World War ended and the men came home, she was fired. She ran her husband’s business for 23 years, but after their divorce she found she’d gone from well-to-do to poor. What then began as administering a survey for the city welfare department morphed into her handling client intake, and eventually getting her accreditation as a social worker through UBC extension courses. After several years of travelling with her second husband, she spent three years house sitting, then ran her own gardening business until she herniated a disc. continued on page 12

▶ TERRY FOX RUNS TAKE PLACE THIS SUNDAY IN SURREY AND NORTH DELTA from page 11
She thought she was retired until the agent who’d been given her name called and told her she had an audition for her. She auditioned the next day. When they told her, “You’re perfect!” she responded, “Thank you very much. I know I am.” Since then, Hamilton has shot print and TV ads in New York and London, England. She admits that she likes a break after an hour or so of work now. “I simply don’t have the energy I had when I was 80.” Registration for the annual Cloverdale Terry Fox Run begins at 9 a.m. in the parking lot of the Cloverdale Legion at 17567 57 Ave. Hamilton will speak shortly before the run starts at 10 a.m. New to the event this year will be a Kids Zone play area with face painting, sidewalk chalk, bubble blowing and a clown making balloon animals; prize draws for new participants (one adult and one child) as well as
a returning participant who brings a newcomer; and an entire tent of Terry Fox memorabilia as part of the popular silent auction. The auction, which features more than 100 items for sale, is a significant part of the local run’s fundraising for cancer research.

The one-, five- and 10-kilometre routes are open to all, with no registration fee or minimum donation required. Runners, walkers, cyclists, strollers and leashed pets are all welcome. There will be new Terry Fox merchandise available for purchase, with entertainment and food on site.

Two local senior police officers have been honoured with one of the highest awards given to law enforcement. Surrey RCMP Officer in Charge Bill Fordy and Delta Deputy Police Chief Lyle Beaudoin received the Order of Merit medal in Ottawa on Tuesday. The award recognizes a career of exceptional service or distinctive merit by the men and women of Canadian police services. The primary focus is on exceptional merit, contributions to policing and community development. Fordy has been in charge of Surrey detachment, the largest RCMP detachment in the country, since June of 2012. “Throughout his long and distinguished career, Bill Fordy’s superior police work and contributions to the community have been exemplary,” Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts said in a release. “His leadership, commitment and progressive approach to policing have enhanced the safety and security of our residents.” Of Beaudoin, Delta Chief Jim Cessford said: “It is an honour for one of our memBill Fordy bers to be recognized nationally with this award and it speaks to Deputy Chief Beaudoin’s commitment to public safety and the community of Delta. Deputy Chief Beaudoin continues to serve Delta with the same energy and enthusiasm as when he first started with the department.” The officers received the Order of Merit in a ceremony at Rideau Hall presided over by David Johnston, Governor General of Canada.

For the vast majority, the benefits of these medications outweigh the risks, but people ask about natural approaches every day. Family Care Pharmacy strongly believes in practicing both prescription and complementary & alternative medicine, and one of our favourite disease states to talk about with our patients is cholesterol management.

Super Cruising in a Cadillac THE ROAD RULES www.roadrules.ca
Cedric Hughes

Barrister & Solicitor
very third year, The Intelligent Transportation Society of America (ITS) hosts an international meeting concerning current plans and future goals for transportation. This year the event was held in Detroit, Michigan, September 7th to 11th. Attendees, according to the ITS website, included: “more than 10,000 of the world’s leading transportation policymakers, researchers, high-tech innovators, and business professionals from the United States, Europe and Asiaâ€?. The opening speech at the conference was made by the CEO of General Motors (GM). Within the speech (http://media. gm.com) emerged some details of the brilliant technology to be found in GM’s 2017 Cadillac vehicle. Cadillac will have driver assistance technology referred to by the manufacturer as Super Cruise. Some details from the speech are: • “hands-off lane following, braking and speed control in certain highway driving conditionsâ€? • these features to be present for “the comfort of an attentive driver on freeways, both in bumper-to-bumper traffic and on long road tripsâ€? An essential part of Super Cruise concept is reported to be vehicle to vehicle communication (V2V). The intent according to GM (http://media.gm.com) is to: • mitigate many traffic collisions and improve traffic congestion by sending and receiving basic safety information such as location, speed and direction of travel
between vehicles that are approaching each other. It will warn drivers and can supplement active safety features, such as forward collision warning, already available on many production cars. GM notes that the technology will address the following social and economic issues: • As the world becomes more congested and new populations need access to personal mobility, accidents continue to be a global concern. A recent National Highway Traffic Safety Administration study estimated that the economic and societal impact of motor vehicle crashes in the United States is more than $870 billion per year. Current deaths from motor vehicle accidents annually (2012) in the United States are reported to be approximately 30,000. World-wide (2010) the number is generally suggested to be 1.2 million deaths. Implementation of the V2V technology has been underway for some time. GM demonstrated some V2V capability in 2006 in Cadillac test vehicles. For some time, V2V has been a development focus for all of the major motor vehicle manufacturers. Competition for refinement of the system will intensify, and the protection it affords will become another standard feature, like seat belts, airbags and ABS brakes. V2V will function in the 5.9 GHz band area, a frequency reserved by the American Government in 1999 for unlicensed use by technologies such as Wi-Fi. It is reported that regulations for the standardization of V2V will be established by the end of this year for the United States. We can expect that the American leadership as regards to standards will be accepted internationally. All of this is good news. Not too long from now we will see vehicles cooperating with each other, attempting to avoid traffic jams and collisions, and increasing the efficiency of existing roadways. ‌by Cedric Hughes, Barrister & Solicitor with regular weekly contributions from Leslie McGuffin, LL.B.

former B.C. Liberal Party employee have been charged under the Elections Act for providing undeclared help to the party in its unsuccessful by-election campaign in Port Moody-Coquitlam in 2012. B.C.’s criminal justice branch confirmed Monday that the charges against Bonney, Mark Robertson and a company called Mainland Communications relate to assigning a staff member to work on the by-election campaign for Dennis Marsden, who was defeated by former Port Moody mayor Joe Trasolini in the by-election. Charges were approved by special prosecutor David Butcher, appointed in August 2013 to investigate the government’s multicultural outreach plan that resulted in Bonney and Premier Christy Clark’s deputy chief of staff resigning when it was leaked to the opposition. The charges are not connected to the outreach plan, which was revealed to have attempted to use government resources to bolster the party’s popularity with ethnic voters in the 2013 general election. Butcher expects that Brian invesBonney tigation to continue until early 2015. The three charges relate to former government caucus employee Sepideh Sarrafpour being assigned to work on Marsden’s by-election campaign, without declaring the work as an election expense. Sarrafpour’s role in the ethnic outreach plan was as a contractor to work on events such as a formal apology by the B.C. government for the head tax on Chinese immigrants in the early 20th century. A leaked memo detailed a plan to compile lists of ethnic community members from such events for use by the party in the 2013 election.

Money for a tow? Avoid the hook ▶ POLICE BELIEVE SAME FRAUDSTER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR A NUMBER OF SCAMS IN SURREY KEVIN DIAKIW
Surrey RCMP is warning the public about an alleged fraudster who has reportedly been preying on elderly people and their generosity. Police say the scam involves the suspect telling homeowners that his car has been towed nearby and he needs money to retrieve it. In some cases, the suspect gains access to the residence during the conversation and steals further items from the homeowner. The suspect sometimes offers the homeowner an item as collateral before a return payment is made, which turns out to be stolen property. He has also returned the next day in an apparent attempt to re-pay the homeowner, which results in a further theft or robbery. The suspect uses a number of techniques in order to gain the victim’s trust including alleging knowledge of the victim’s family. Between May and June 2014, police responded to three complaints of a similar nature, however Surrey RCMP believe
there may be additional victims who have yet to come forward. The frauds have all taken place in the City Centre area of Surrey. Despite a number of investigative steps and persons of interest, police have failed to identify and locate the suspect. Officers are hoping that releasing this information and a surveillance photo will help identify who he is. The suspect is described as a South Asian male in his mid-20s, short black hair, clean cut, approximately 6’0”, with a slim to average build. Police believe the same suspect may be responsible for a series of similar frauds in the Richmond area. Anyone who has further information or who has been the victim of a similar scam is asked to contact the Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS or www.solvecrime.ca For information on protecting yourself from fraud visit the fraud prevention and seniors safety sections of the RCMP website at http://surrey.rcmp-grc.gc.ca/

SATURDAY
A Delta dog walker accused in the deaths of six dogs that allegedly died of heat exhaustion in the back of her truck before being dumped in Abbotsford in May had nothing to say to reporters following her first court date Tuesday afternoon. While she was inside the Surrey Provincial Court building, Emma Paulsen actually didn’t enter the courtroom where Crown counsel and her lawyer convened briefly. Instead, she stood in another part of the building, away from where TV cameras could see her through the windows. When she did bolt from the door to a waiting car, her cellphone to her ear, Paulsen did not respond to media questions. In August, Paulsen was charged with six counts, including killing an animal; causing unnecessary suffering, pain or injury; neglecting to provide adequate food, water or shelter; failing to protect and animal from circumstances that are likely to cause distress; causing or permitting distress; and intent to mislead police in an investigation. She has not yet entered pleas. If found guilty, she faces a maximum fine of $75,000, up to five years in jail and a ban of owning or having custody of animals for a period of time determined by the judge. Owners of the deceased dogs and their supporters attended the brief court appearance
Tuesday. Stephanie Marner didn’t blame Paulsen for rushing in and out of the courthouse. “I would be hanging my head, too,” she said, noting one of the dead dogs, a bouvier/poodle, was owned by her sister, niece and nephew. Marner suggested that if found guilty, Paulsen’s access to animals should be forever limited. “She deserves a lifetime ban of ever owning an animal, she should never be able to be a dog walker, she should never be able to volunteer with animals,” said Marner, adding she intended to attend all of Paulsen’s court appearances. Paulsen initially reported the dogs stolen from the Brookswood off-leash dog park in Langley on May 13, sparking a widespread community search for the missing animals. But nearly a week later she admitted that the dogs had died of heat exhaustion after she left them in her vehicle on a hot day. She then led Langley RCMP to a ditch in Abbotsford where all six pooches were found dead. One of the dogs was a border collie owned by her ex-husband and children. Necropsies done by the SPCA confirmed the canines all died of heat exhaustion. Crown counsel spokesperson Gordon Comer said there are about 50 reports of animal cruelty to Crown every year. He said the next step in Paulsen’s case will be up to her and her lawyer. “The matter is before the courts. She’s presumed innocent at this stage,” Comer said. Paulsen’s next court date is Oct. 17.

issues but he said there will be plenty of public notice ahead of the new line’s opening in 2016. “The Evergreen brand already has community resonance and we want people to respect that and take advantage of it,� Deby said. Coquitlam Mayor Richard Stewart said he was “surprised� to learn in recent months that TransLink wanted to call the extension the Millennium Line as well. He noted TransLink’s 2013 annual report contains a photo of SkyTrain route charts that show the Millennium Line colour and name extending all the way east to the Lafarge Lake-Douglas Station terminus in Coquitlam. While one name from Coquitlam all the way west to UBC eventually might well be simpler for TransLink, Stewart said it would upend years of planning in the Tri Cities. “To the public, the Millennium Line is in Burnaby and Vancouver. The one in Coquitlam, that’s the Evergreen Line. It doesn’t make sense to try to overcome all those years of branding.� Businesses and organizations in the Tri-Cities have also embraced the name. “We’ve made investment decisions and we’ve named facilities and projects associated with the Evergreen Line name,� Stewart said. Deby wouldn’t discuss naming implications if the Millennium Line is ultimately extended west along the Broadway corridor in Vancouver. A key goal is making sure the SkyTrain network is easy to understand, he said, adding the looping route of the Millennium Line is still confusing to some people. “Adding another service into the system is now making it a little bit more complex. What we’re looking at is: Is there a way we can look at the line naming now and make it clearer for people?� TransLink has not yet indicated whether Millennium Line passengers going to or from southeast Burnaby will have to transfer at either Lougheed or Columbia once the new line is in operation.

Buyers looking beyond home features when purchasing By Kerry Vital
The decision on where to purchase a new home goes beyond the features of the homes themselves. Beautiful countertops or elegant flooring go a long way, but there are a few other features that buyers are increasingly looking for. Those features include an amazing amenities space. “In the past, we saw amenities spaces tucked away within
buildings, which were small and uninspired compared to what is available today,” says Cressey Development Group’s Hani Lammam. “Amenities are becoming central to a building’s design.” Among the popular amenities in new home construction are a full-size gym, a yoga studio, gardens, a music room and large communal entertaining spaces. “We’re noticing that distinct architectural styles appeal to the
NEW HOME DEVELOPMENT
homebuyer, such as multi-level and indoor-outdoor amenity spaces,” Lammam says. “Specifically, we’ve seen buyers wanting amenities that they will really use and which will add to their quality of living.” To capitalize on this, Cressey has included beautiful amenities in several of their recent projects. Richmond’s Cadence features a rooftop garden and glass “Jewel Box” pavilion that holds an entertaining lounge and kitchen. Maddox in downtown Vancouver includes a full-size indoor gym as well as a podium entertaining space linked to the main building. Concord Pacific is also integrating amazing amenities in their new projects. For example, Park Avenue in Surrey’s City Centre has a tennis court, putting green, theatre, fully landscaped sky gardens and many more. Their Richmond master-planned community of Concord Gardens has a banquet hall, grand ballroom, lantern pavilion and several other stunning features.

The Summit Residences by Domae Homes is perfectly situated in Chilliwack to take advantage of everything that the area has to offer, including tons of outdoor recreation opportunities. The spacious homes are available in a variety of open-plan layouts, allowing homeowners to personalize their home.
Ascending to the peak at The Summit Residences By Kerry Vital
Domae Homes has long been known for high-quality homes that they themselves would want to live in. With the Summit Residences, that’s actually the case for partner Kevin Chester, who lives in the community
himself and enjoys being able to say hello to the people who have purchased a home there. “We build homes that we care about,” he says. “These are not just houses; they’re homes that people want to spend time in.” Located in the Promontory Heights community in Chilliwack, The Summit
Residences are worthy of their name. With stunning views of the surrounding valley and mountains, the neighbourhood is a naturelovers dream. Thom Creek Park is nearby, as well as trails, golf courses, lakes and other recreation opportunities. “These views are to-die-for,” Chester says. There are controlled and registered building design guidelines in place to keep that view for the homeowners at the Summit Residences, which is especially important to those buyers who put a beautiful view on the top of their list of must-haves.
The 52 single-family homes on the 12-acre site are available in a range of floorplans, including two new layouts that range in size from 2,116 to 2,324 square feet plus an unfinished basement. Curb appeal is not in short supply at The Summit Residences, with their Craftsman architecture, distinctive exposed aggregate or stamped driveways and spacious outdoor decks, patios and landscaped yards. Each home has a double-car attached garage. “No two homes are the same,” Chester says. “We want buyers to get exactly what they want, so there is quite a variety of options.” Spacious open-concept floorplans are perfect for entertaining, and homeowners can choose between two professionally selected colour schemes. Large windows maximize the view and let natural light fill the space. Hardwood laminate flooring throughout the main level is complemented by luxurious trackless carpeting in the bedrooms. A cozy stone-faced gas fireplace adds a touch of contemporary elegance to the living room. The gourmet kitchens include hardwood cabinetry, classic granite countertops and a hand-set tiled backsplash. A granite-topped island adds to the overall counter space and serves as a gathering place. A spacious pantry is another masterstroke of convenience. The ensuite is spa-like and relaxing, with a deluxe soaker tub, frameless glass shower and floating under-lit hardwood cabinet. Homes start at $450,000. For more information, visit www.summitresidences.ca, call 604-824-6473 or stop by the sales centre at 47150 MacFarlane Place, Chilliwack, open 12 to 5 p.m. daily except Thursday and Friday.

Raaj Chatterjee is in his first year of the mechatronics program at SFU Surrey. gram. Chatterjee developed his interest in the environment and sustainability in high school (he graduated from Semiahmoo Secondary), where he began a school composting project, and later organized a conference at Science World to link high schools students on environmental issues. Last year he became co-chair of the Surrey Youth Sustainability Network, which includes giving leadership clinics at local elementary schools and supporting environmental stewardship. The Leader newspaper gave him a Community Leader Award in June for his efforts. Chatterjee also hopes to work and volunteer abroad through the United Nations and Engineers Without Borders to improve living conditions in developing nations. With his family, Chatterjee developed a bi-weekly homemade food delivery program to distribute hot, nutritious food to the
homeless in North Surrey. He also finds time for music, earning the 2013 Best Surrey Senior Trumpet Player award at the annual Envision Jazz Festival. Lum has both participated in and led volunteer groups for several clubs in Burnaby, including Karing 4 Kids and Christmas Cheer. Both raise funds towards annual goals for local charities, including the Make-A-Wish Foundation and Burnaby’s Christmas Bureau. Lum became an executive and eventually chairperson and co-chairperson of the clubs. Her efforts, together with fellow executives, contributed a total of $32,000 to the two charities. “I was transformed by volunteering,” says Lum. Seymour Schulich, a Montreal-born Jewish Canadian business leader and philanthropist, created the annual awards program three years ago to cultivate the next-generation pioneers of global scientific research and innovation in Canada and Israel.
New novella for Surrey author SHEILA REYNOLDS
Surrey author Greg Bauder has released a new novella, Spilt Coffee. The book follows a trio of aging men with schizoaffective disorder who are lost and disillusioned and pine for the beautiful young Filipino nurse who looks after them in a psychiatric boarding home. The short novel, described as a “beacon against the dark stigma toward the mentally ill,” is available at Solstice Publishing (solsticepublishing.com) or Greg Bauder Amazon.ca. It is the latest in Bauder’s collection of writing, which includes The Temptress Ariel, Selene’s Guiding Light, and Paranoid Lost. His most recent work, which was released this week, is based on Bauder’s own 37-year struggle with schizoaffective disorder. After a battle with mental health issues in the late 70s, Bauder’s health stabilized and he earned his BA in English from UBC. Spilt Coffee is available in paperback or Kindle edition.

He’s made music videos by himself before, which were pretty good for a pre-teen. But it wasn’t until recently that 12-year-old Shon Burnett had the chance to make his first professional video. That opportunity came when he cracked the Top 6 on the YTV show The Next Star. Now in its seventh season, the Canadian reality show aims to find the most talented singer 15 years old or younger. m “I really didn’t expect to make it. I’m really grateful about that,” says the aspiring Surrey pop star. The show began last month with 12 2 young contestants trying to wow the judges, and by last week, the talent roster was pared by half. Burnett, who likes to sing pop/rockk tunes, has performed songs such as Cody Simpson’s Pretty Brown Eyes, Justin Bieber’s All That Matters and Story of My Life by One Direction. The judges – Dan Canter, Tara Oram m and Mark Spicoluk – have been mostly ly complimentary after Burnett’s performances, encouraging him to let hiss own style shine through. “They tell me to be myself,” Burnettt says, “not to try to be the artist.” His new video is for an original song called Be Your Holiday and as off Wednesday, had nearly 21,000 views on YouTube. Burnett, who turns 13 next
month, was born in Thailand and only moved to Canada with his family about a year ago. While he speaks Thai (his mom is from Thailand and dad is Canadian), Burnett clarifies that English has always been his first language and he’s attended English-speaking schools overseas. His p performing career began at age nine when he decided he wanted to be a busker and hit the Chatuchak We Weekend Market – the largest outdo market in the world. There, door he was discovered by Thai rock star Rang Rockestra, who took Burnett under his wing, mentored him and eventually had him perform at his concerts. In 2012, when Burnett was ju 10, he entered the TVN just KPOP SStar Hunt 2, a singing contest ai in Thailand, making it to the Top 10 and ear earning him fans from around the glo globe. A year later, he was a Top 7 anoth televised talent contesting in another ailand The Trainer 5. The prior TV Thailand, experien he says, has helped him on experience, The Next Star. Burnet who will enter Grade 8 at Burnett, Kwantle Park Secondary this year, says Kwantlen n all the finalists have become good friends and he’d be happy to see any one of them ta take the top spot in the competition. “Ever “Everyone else, I’ve seen how much they’ve improved – everyone deserves win to win.” vi past performances by the To view contes contestants, including Burnett, check http:/ http://nextstar.ytv.com/#thenextstar The Next Star airs Monday nights. l finale, when the winner will The live an be announced, will air Sept. 21 on YTV YTV.

Soccer season under way at KPU ▼ KWANTLEN EAGLES TEAMS OCCUPY PLAYOFF POSITIONS AFTER THREE GAMES RICK KUPCHUK
After playing three games in five days to start league play in the Pacific Western Athletic Conference (PACWEST), the Kwantlen Polytechnic University Eagles are in a playoff position in both men’s and women’s soccer leagues. The Eagles men’s team won two of three games to sit third in the six-team league, while the women are in fourth after a win and a pair of losses. The KPU men began their season at home last Wednesday evening (Sept. 3), blanking the Capilano University Blues 3-0 at Newton Athletic Park. Justin Turner-Pearce scored the winning goal, his first in PACWEST play, in the 47th minute. Alexander Escobar netted the final two goals in the last 15 minutes of play. Surrey native David Hicks, a graduate of Clayton Heights Secondary, earned the shutout in his first game in a Kwantlen uniform. Saturday in Coquitlam, KPU fell 3-0 to the Douglas College Royals. Spencer Deboice of Surrey tallied twice for the Royals. Playing in Richmond Sunday, the Eagles earned their second victory of the season with a convincing 4-1 decision over the Langara Falcons. Turner-Pearce opened the scoring just nine minutes into the game, then Marcos Teodoro da Silva upped the difference to 2-0 seven minutes later. With 30 minutes to play, Langara cut ▶ “We lost the difference to one, two games this before the Eagles responded with insurweekend due ance goals from Kwanto mistakes.” tlen Park Secondary graduate Abdul Kulan JULIE KING and Holy Cross high school graduate Dalton San. The KPU women’s team began their season with a win, before suffering two defeats over the weekend. The Eagles topped Capilano 2-1 at home Wednesday, with Panorama Ridge Secondary graduate Harlene Uppal and Pamela Scowby netting the goals. KPU dropped their two road games on the weekend, the first a 2-0 loss to Douglas College Saturday. They lost a two-goal decision Sunday in Richmond, falling 3-1 to the Langara Falcons in a game the Eagles led 1-0 after just 10 minutes on an own goal. “We lost two games this weekend due to mistakes,” said KPU head coach Julie King. “We’ve got a lot on our plate for practice this week so we continue to look forward towards the bigger picture and tidy up our game.” Both Eagles teams will play twice this weekend, hosting the Quest Kermodes (0-0-3) at noon (women) and at 2 p.m. (men in Newton, then traveling to Nanaimo to face the Vancouver Island University Mariners (3-0-0) on Sunday.

District puts a stop to high school sports ▼ SURREY SCHOOL DISTRICT CANCELS EXTRA-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES, INCLUDING SPORTS, DURING TEACHERS’ STRIKE RICK KUPCHUK
Just two days before they were ready to start their high school football season, Surrey schools have been sidelined. A decision by the Surrey School District to cancel all extra-curricular activities during the strike by the B.C. Teachers’ Federation meant that after weeks of practice, preseason games scheduled for last weekend didn’t take place. “On Thursday (Sept. 4), we got a call from our principal saying School District No. 36 (Surrey) has decided to put a halt to all extra curricular activities,” said Frank Hurt Hornets head coach Duane Linnen. “He gave us a lot of

The Hornets were to play the Sentinel Spartans in North Vancouver next Saturday (Sept. 13) but the game has been canceled. After another scheduled preseason game Sept. 20 in Kamloops, the Hornets were set to start regular season play Oct. 4. The Lord Tweedsmuir Panthers are in a similar situation, having a game last weekend in Victoria canceled, as well as a preseason game in Nanaimo on Saturday. Their first regular season game in the Okanagan on Sept. 19 against the Kelowna Owls is also in doubt. Meanwhile, Delta’s two high schools met at Seaquam Secondary Saturday, where the Senior AAA South Delta Sun Devils blanked the Senior A Seaquam Seahawks 31-0. “Why is (School District) No. 36 the only one not playing?” Linnen asks. “It’s very frustrating.”

Cloverdale hosts Premier Division teams Buckosky wins GrandFondo race to Whistler ▶ PEGASUS LONE LOCAL TEAM TO WIN ON VMSL’S OPENING DAY RICK KUPCHUK
ICST Pegasus was the lone winner from Surrey on the first day of play in the Vancouver Metro Soccer League’s Premier Division last Saturday at Cloverdale Athletic Park. All 12 teams Premier Division teams opened their
regular season in Cloverdale. While Pegasus edged the Vancouver Olympics 1-0, the Surrey United Firefighters played to a draw and CCBRT United lost. Sahil Sandhu scored in the 65th minute to lift Pegasus to a victory, with goaltender Andy Singh earning the shutout with several outstanding saves. The Firefighters played Croatia SC to a 1-1 draw in the final game of the day. Tommy
Lowndes scored the Surrey goal from the edge of the penalty area after a half-hour of play. Croatia tied the score with five minutes to play, beating Surrey United goalie Paul Shepherd, who earned Player of the Match honours. The Firefighters will visit Richmond on Saturday to face Richmond FC Hibernian, 3-1 winners over FC Burnaby last weekend. CCBRT United were on
the losing end of the most lopsided game of the day, a 9-2 setback against the Coquitlam Metro-Ford Wolves in the day’s first game. Missing several starters, CCBRT got goals from Derrick Bassi and David Hill. CCBRT United will be at home this weekend, hosting Columbus FC at 8:45 p.m. on Friday night at Newton Athletic Park. The Wolves will host Pegasus in Coquitlam on Saturday.

Monterrey, CA. – Looking at the specs, it doesn’t seem too impressive. A 1.6-litre engine, 116 horsepower, 100 lb-ft of torque, a 0-100 km/h time of less than nine seconds, 14-inch tires. Heck, my bicycle has bigger rubbers! Okay, maybe not. But 25 years ago, the Mazda Miata was a product of those numbers. It wasn’t necessarily endowed in the engine department. However, the twodoor roadster did have everything else on its side. A sleek design, a peppy personality, a brilliant red coat and something that other cars have strived to achieve in their two-door roadsters over the years but have fallen short – longevity. At a quarter century old, the Miata/MX-5 has achieved incredible success. Close to a million of these drop tops have been sold worldwide. The Miata/MX5 holds a Guinness Book of World Records title of as most successful two-seat convertible roadster in history. Not bad for a car that packs in so many thrills for under $30K. Over the years, the frontengine, rear-wheel drive car continued to encourage the masses to drive topless. Whether through a rag or hardtop, this specimen of automotive manufacturing and design allowed people to feel the proverbial wind in their hair within seconds. I felt it as a kid as my mom was lucky enough to be one of the first Miata owners in BC when they came out in 1989 – a red one, of course – and took me out for rides frequently. Those memories have stayed with me over the decades, though I’ve been able to form my own bond with the car. Not only have we (meaning, the various MX-5s I’ve driven in the last in 11 years) put down thousands of kilometres together,
we’ve also been paired up at the Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca for the Skip Barber Racing School experience a couple of times. Nostalgia is one popular element of its appeal, but there’s an undeniable fun factor. Whether racing it on a track or just taking it to the grocery store, the first turn you carve in it will rope you in like an infomercial in the wee hours of the night when you can’t sleep. But in the case of the MX-5, you won’t have any buyer’s remorse. Fast-forward through the years and you’re now viewing the fourth generation MX-5. And what better way to welcome the roadster to the stage here in California than via a little band called Duran Duran. And through a live satellite stream that was broadcast here, and abroad in Spain and Japan. The reasoning? – Both the English music group and the roadster came into popularity in the 80s and continued to succeed and grow in status over the decades. Besides, “Rio” is an incredibly catchy tune to dance to! That said the MX-5 has a new, eye-catching look to it. Not many specs have been released though I can tell you this: it’s lower, wider, and sheds 100kg in the making. It also embodies the KODO or “Soul of Motion” design language. This two-seater also comes with sexy character lines from its four corners. Furthermore, up front, you’ll notice its headlights that look like they’re eyeing its prey; unlike the first generation’s pop up/down headlights that were more than welcoming. Like with all-new models of anything legendary, there will be a polarizing reception. Some might think it’s too radical. Some might fall immediately in love with it. And some will wait to drive it to make up their mind. Regardless of the way it looks – which certainly helps its cause – it’s really about how you feel on the road, behind the wheel, and when you tuck it in at night. More details about the MX-5 are scheduled to be released at this year’s Paris Auto Show. Either way, I can’t wait to drive it. www.mazda.ca alexandra.straub@ drivewaybc.ca
Ill-named but a luxury car for real
The Kia K900 has all the refinement and features found in cars with a longer pedigree in the luxury space but this car offers it at a discount.
‘‘
Zack Spencer

Differing definitions of luxury in the automotive market are truly reflected in the eyes of the beholder. To one person it might be having all the refinements and gadgets available in a modern car accompanied with a smooth and quiet ride. To another buyer it might just be about the name on the front of the car, letting all to see it that the owner has “made it” establishing a certain status in society. For many it’s a combination of both. Enter the new Kia K900 luxury sedan from Kia. It has all the refinement and features found in cars with a longer pedigree in the luxury space but this car offers it at a discount. Then the name on the car comes into play. Is the Kia K900 a car anyone aspires to own? Well, after a weeklong trip with my family I’m more impressed with Kia than I have been before but the realist in me knows Kia isn’t a luxury brand, at least not yet.
Looks The K900 is an unfortunate name, it begs the question is this a dog? No, it is a fullsize car about the same size as a 7-series from BMW or S-Class from Mercedes Benz. The K900 is based on the same platform as the Hyundai Equus but differs in price and content. For a full-sized car with limo-like dimensions, the K900 starts at a remarkable $49,995 for the V6 model and $60,995 for the V6 premium

model. The top V8 model is $69,995. The styling is strong, especially the top V8 model seen here with LED headlamps and taillights and very North American looking chrome multi-spoke wheels. The rear doors are huge and Kia has done but good job of keeping the proportions of the car in check while grafting Kia’s signature Tiger Nose grille. The rear bumper and lower air diffuser looks especially chunky, almost mimicking the Lexus LS and its integrated exhaust tips.
travelling with two children in the back, the car offered a very relaxing ride for the passengers, and the kids especially liked the cooled seats on a very hot day. The centre infotainment screen is controlled with a rotary dial in-between the front passengers and is very similar to Audi’s MMI system.
Inside Every person that sat in the K900 was blown away with the refinement, fit and finish and especially the materials used. The V8 test model had leather covering the front of the dash and piano finish on the wood trim accented. Add in tasteful chrome and aluminum, dark, rich wood on the steering wheel and centre console and the K900 looks like a million bucks. The front and rear seats came with ventilation and V8 models have a rear seat reclining feature. Despite spending countless hours behind the wheel
Drive The V6 model comes with the very competent 3.8L engine that puts out 311hp. having tried this in other Hyundai/Kia products and it is smooth and powerful. The V8 is superb, with

420hp coming from a 5.0L V8, there is no lack of power. The shift in the auto industry is to smaller engines that utilize turbo charging but Kia is sticking with good old engine displacement to get the job done. Covering more than 1,000km, the real world fuel economy was 12L/100km on the highway. To say that the K900 is smooth and quite is an understatement, I would put this car up against the new S-Class from Mercedes and a blindfolded passenger would have a hard time distinguishing the difference. What does
become apparent is the K900’s lack of steering feedback to the driver and cornering ability. On Highway 3 from Hope towards Penticton the K900 wallowed in the switchback corners, it really didn’t like it at all. Driving back on the Coquihalla was a different story; the K900 shines in open road cruising, making it a wonderful long road trip companion. Verdict The K900 is Kia’s very first pure luxury car and they got a lot right. The interior is as good as anyone in the marketplace and Kia
does it at a substantial discount to the competition and power isn’t a problem especially with the big V8 available. But there were a few problems. The automatic lock and unlock feature on the outside doors only unlocked. This is probably a quick fix but an issue and the Bluetooth audio didn’t work either. Another stumbling block is the lack of all wheel drive (AWD). In this segment almost all vehicles sold come with AWD, in fact most companies only offer it. The market for this car is a happy existing Kia owner wanting to upgrade to something more and that is
where the V6 model comes into play. Kia might not sell many of these cars but they have it for sale to show anyone that is interested that they can make a true luxury car, maybe not in name but in features and refinement. zack.spencer @drivewaybc.ca The Lowdown Power: 3.8L V6 with 311hp or 5.0L V8 with 420hp Fill-up: 15.7L/10.3L/100km (city/highway V8) Sticker price: $$49,995$69,995
