Retiring Delta chief considers deputy city manager post, as he weighs in on Surrey’s crime debate

No-call-too-small ‘crucial’ for Surrey Kevin Diakiw Black Press

It’s just before midnight on Dec. 20, and what sounds like distant machine gun fire is hitting the side of a Clayton home. A glance outside reveals a couple of drunken teens pulling Christmas lights from the house. But a call to 911 is met with laughter. Lack of police response is a story heard often in Surrey, but in Delta – like in White

Rock, where they practise “no call is too small” policing – cops attend everything. Delta Police Chief Jim Cessford says it not only possible to implement the strategy in Surrey, it’s crucial. Cessford, who is retiring from Delta in February, is being eyed for a position as a senior crime-fighting boss in Surrey. One of his tasks would be bringing the Delta model here. Coun. Barinder Rasode, a Surrey mayoral

candidate, has been working with Cessford for months on a crime-fighting plan. She wants to create the position of director of public safety – a deputy city manager who would oversee police, fire, the legal department and bylaws. And she wants Cessford in the running. Rasode said she repeatedly hears from residents that they want a model of policing like Delta, where every call is attended by police. Can it be done in Surrey?

“Absolutely,” Cessford said in an exclusive interview with Black Press at Rasode’s ‘Community Hub’ in Newton on Monday. “That’s what they did in New York. They went right down to graffiti and fare evasion… they went right back to basic policing.” Cessford is not officially endorsing Rasode as a candidate. As a police chief, he said he can’t – and won’t – get into politics. i see page 4

White Rock council is being asked to consider renaming the 15200-block of Marine Drive – something with more meaning than ‘The Hump.’

‘Eagle Hill’ suggested for rise that divides waterfront business areas

Task force seeks to rename The Hump Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

An effort to rename the Marine Drive “hump” to something with more meaning has taken wing. “We’re ready for it to be something else… to be appreciated for what it is,” said Barry Belec, explaining a suggestion to formally tag the mound in the 15200-block of Marine Drive ‘Eagle Hill.’ “Eagle Hill tells people a little more than ‘The Hump.’”

Belec is a White Rock resident who sits on the city’s Centre Street Road Allowance Improvements Task Force. He said the mound of trees and shrubbery – including tall firs where bald eagles can often be seen perched or nesting – has been known as ‘The Hump’ for “years and years and years.” But it is so much more than the colloquial moniker suggests, Belec told Peace Arch News. “Whenever you see images taken from West Beach, (they) always involve beautiful presentations of greenery on The Hump,” he said.

Sunday, October 26, 2014

With an appropriate name, “it becomes something other than a blank unknown.” The renaming recommendation was presented at the task force’s Sept. 17 meeting. Receiving unanimous support at that level, it came before council this past Monday and was referred to staff for a report. Belec was among a number of people to make the renaming suggestion, many of whom had in mind last year’s toppling of four mature Douglas firs, he said. i see page 4

Police are appealing for witnesses in a crash that sent two teens and a child to hospital Sunday night. Surrey RCMP is investigating whether excessive speed was a factor in a collision that saw a grey Mazda nearly sheared in half after it slammed into a power pole on King George Boulevard near 64 Avenue at about 7:45 p.m. Sept. 28. As of Wednesday morning, a 17-year-old passenger was fighting for his life with severe brain injuries and a broken back, and the 18-yearold male driver was in serious condition with broken limbs. A 12-year-old boy, who was a passenger in the backseat, suffered minor injuries and was released from hospital. The car’s occupants were trapped inside the car for about half an hour while firefighters used the Jaws of Life to free them. Based on witness accounts, a pedestrian was crossing King George Boulevard from east to west just before the crash, and police want to speak with that person. Investigators are also asking to speak to the occupants of a black SUV that was driving alongside the car at the time of the collision. Anyone with information about the crash is asked to call Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502.

as a community need to ask ourselves why. Surrey is filled with mostlypeaceable people who have come here from all over the world. Many who live here grew up here or nearby. Most Surrey residents want better lives for their families, and work hard to try and make that happen. Unfortunately, there is a strong underbelly of drug dealers, lowlifes and predators with tentacles in far too many places. Surrey RCMP is now the largest detachment in Canada, and has many excellent officers on staff. However, many of them are new to policing and to the RCMP, and coming to this city as a first assignment is undoubtedly overwhelming. Many RCMP officers get their start in Surrey and it often leaves an indelible impression on them. Most citizens feel that the police have too few resources to keep up with all the criminal activity, to say nothing of trying to monitor ex-cons like Raymond Caissie, who has been charged in the Vermeersch murder. Another infamous Surrey moment was when the Whalley Burnouts made national news in the 1980s, and made the city a laughing stock from coast to coast. Surrey doesn’t need to be this way. However, it will take strong and sustained action by thousand of citizens to change it. Don’t count on any politicians to make it better. Ultimately, it is up to all of us who live here.

City staff don’t have technical knowledge to begin years-long effort, council told

$20,000 allocated for rail-move advice Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

City of White Rock staff will spend up to $20,000 to have a consultant look into the application process for relocating the BNSF rail line off of the waterfront. Council voted unanimously Monday to support the request, following a report from Greg St. Louis, the city’s director of engineering and municipal operations. The consultant – identified Wednesday as former Canadian Transportation Agency board member Mary-Jane Bennett – will “help us investigate the application process and lay out a framework for us,”

St. Louis told council. The request follows a council resolution Sept. 8 directing staff “to initiate the process and application” for the relocation of the BNSF tracks off the waterfront. In bringing that motion forward, Mayor Wayne Baldwin said it was time to get the goal of relocating the railway back on track. The quest went off the rails in the wake of a jogger’s death on East Beach tracks in July 2013, which triggered orders from Transport Canada that the city is still working to comply with. Relocating the line will be a years-long exercise, Baldwin said.

Monday, in response to a question from Coun. Al Campbell, St. Louis confirmed that city staff do not have the technical knowledge and expertise needed to proceed with the application unaided. In addition to providing a framework and feasibility of moving the application forward in accordance with the Railway Relocation and Crossing Act, the consultant will assist in a risk assessment, he said. Once complete, the details will be brought back to council, St. Louis said. Mary-Jane Bennett The $20,000 – from the city’s contingency budget – consultant is to cover expenditures to the end of December.

RCM-SAR5 crews came to the aid of a stranded senior couple Monday afternoon, after the pair’s 40-foot sailboat ran aground shortly after noon after straying outside the channel. The couple were transported to Crescent Beach Marina, and a decision was made to wait for high tide to refloat the boat.

Nominations opened Tuesday for those taking a run at office in this fall’s municipal elections. While numerous people in both White Rock and Surrey have expressed an intention to run for the now-four-year council/mayoral terms, only some had made it official as of Peace Arch News’ deadline Wednesday afternoon. In Surrey, mayoral candidates to have filed papers so far include Doug McCallum (Safe Surrey), Vikram Bajwa and John Edwards. Declared council candidates include Martin Rooney and Jim McMurtry, as well as Safe Surrey teammates Beau Simpson, Justin Thind, Rina Gill and Laurie Guerra. Confirmed council candidates in White Rock include Pat Petrala, Megan Knight, Cary van Zanten and incumbent Grant Meyer. School board candidates Balraj Atwal and Jonathan Sileira have filed their papers with Surrey; incumbent Laurae McNally filed her papers in White Rock. Election day is Nov. 15. Nomination period closes Oct. 10. Visit www.surrey.ca/election2014 or www.whiterockcity.ca/election, for more information. – Kevin Diakiw & Tracy Holmes

‘Unrealistic’ to expect White Rock to match financial contribution sought from Surrey, Peninsula group told

Funding request receives only encouragement Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

Youth working to create an inclusive and safe space for teens in White Rock returned to council this week to share more specifics of their plan and request funds to help make it happen. But while city leaders praised the teens for their ideas, enthusiasm and organization, they were critical of a plan to ask White Rock and the City of Surrey to contribute equal funding to the effort. “To expect the City of White Rock and the City of Surrey to contribute the same amount is a little bit unrealistic,” Coun. Helen Fathers told teen presenters, Tayla and Kira (last names withheld by request), who spoke alongside Alexandra Neighbourhood House youth and family worker Jessie Kergan and supervisor Maxine Larmour.

Helen Fathers and Bill Lawrence both suggested Monday that finding shared space might be easier for the teens, Larmour said the youth have been clear it is not their goal. Regarding the budget figures, Mayor Wayne Baldwin also described the equal ask as “unrealistic.” “You may want to play with those numbers,” he said. However, Coun. Louise Hutchinson said equal funding may well be appropriate, given the changing demographics in the White Rock/South Surrey area. It is “a very Peninsula community and it could very well be a 50-50 community,” she said. “Our bulge is getting lower and lower when it comes to demographics.” Council voted to refer the presentation to staff.

Mayoral hopefuls focus on crime i from page 1 That said, he likes her approach, as he had a lot to do with it. Cessford’s plan includes the immediate hiring of 200 community safety personnel – trained like police officers but unarmed – at a cost of $8 million annually. Under his watch, these officers would attend calls such as the Christmas-lights theft and other low-risk incidents. They would free up armed officers to tackle the more dangerous work. Cessford said he saw coverage of Sunday’s anti-crime rally in Newton, and it caused him concern. People are “getting mad,” he said. He said he wants residents to be vigilant, not vigilantes, but that’s what can happen when police aren’t answering calls. Small calls need to be addressed before they turn into big ones, Cessford said, noting community-based policing is key.

“It’s in-your-face policing,” he said. “You’re going to go to communities and find out what the problems are, and then you’re going to get in the face of those problems and solve them. And you’re going to eliminate them.” Cessford said the RCMP has some amazing officers, and that the force needs to build on what’s working and scrap what isn’t. Other mayoral candidates are also focusing on Surrey crime. Coun. Linda Hepner (Surrey First) plans to hire 100 officers in the next two years; Doug McCallum (Safe Surrey) said he will hire 95 officers by 2015; John Edwards said the RCMP needs to reduce the number of officers on leave; and Vikram Bajwa said he wants to create a municipal force. Cessford said he met with Rasode months ago to discuss how things in Surrey could change. “We talked about the fact that

we’d like Surrey to be one of the safest cities in Canada,” he said. It must start by cutting crime off at the root and reduce the number of calls that police get, he said. Cessford said that when he came to Delta in ’95, there were 45,000 calls a year. After implementing community-based policing, it is now down to 27,000 calls a year. “We did the same thing in Edmonton and it’s about twice the size of Surrey,” Cessford said. Cessford said change will require an advocate, by way of the deputy public-safety officer, who can close the gap between police, the community and council. Rasode, who was the caller laughed at by emergency dispatch when her Christmas lights were being stolen, said it’s time Surrey residents got the level of policing they deserve. She is expected to announce her crime-fighting plan this morning (Thursday).

Other ‘places of distinction’ eyed i from page 1 The trees, located on city property and a popular roosting spot for bald eagles, were cut down in May 2013 in the interest of public safety, after a deal could not be reached with the owner of an abutting lot eyed for a singlefamily home. The trees had significant roots

extending into the property which were to be cut during excavation to the point the trees would be rendered unstable. The renaming recommendation includes a call for signage identifying the site as Eagle Hill, and pointing residents and tourists alike in the right direction. “There’s some feeling that when

we do Centre Street, it would be nice to point people down the hill, as opposed to just saying ‘The Hump,’” task force chair Coun. Helen Fathers told PAN. “We just want to give it a better description.” Belec hopes city officials will see fit to extend the idea to other “places of distinction that define neighbourhoods.”

Sheila Reynolds Black Press

Two men on trial for the execution-style mass murder of six men in Surrey seven years ago are scheduled to find out their fates today (Thursday). Accused killers Cody Haevischer and Matt Johnston were expected to hear a decision from Justice Catherine Wedge in B.C. Supreme Court in Vancouver. (Check www. peacearchnews.com for updates). Haevischer and Johnston were each charged with conspiracy to murder drug dealer Corey Lal and with the first-degree murder of Lal and his brother, Michael, Eddie Narong, Ryan Bartolomeo and innocent victims Ed Schellenberg and Christopher Mohan. Mohan, 22, Ed Schellenberg lived in an apartment next to where the murders occurred on Oct. 19, 2007 and was headed out to a basketball game with friends when Chris Mohan he was pulled into the death suite. Schellenberg was a gas fitter from Abbotsford who happened to be servicing fireplaces in the Balmoral Tower apartment building that day. The other four young men had links to the drug trade and were visiting the apartment where drugs were made and packaged for sale on the streets. The nine-month trial of Haevischer and Johnston began late last September, calling 73 witnesses over 80 days of testimony. The Crown’s theory in the so-called Surrey Six case was that the Red Scorpions, prompted by Jamie Bacon, planned to kill rival drug dealer Corey Lal, but that the five others were shot to death to eliminate possible witnesses. A third accused, Mike Le, was initially on trial alongside Haevischer and Johnston. But

A police car blocks a street near the Balmoral Tower apartment building the day after the Surrey Six murders. in December, Le pleaded guilty to conspiracy to murder Corey Lal and was sentenced to spend a further three years in jail. (He spent about 4½ years prior). The trial opened last year with graphic photos of the crime scene showing the victims lying dead with hoods over their heads. The former manager of the apartment building recounted looking for Schellenberg, and entering suite 1505 to find six bodies. There was also testimony from a woman who attended a Biblestudy session with friends in the building that afternoon, and saw suspicious men wearing black leather gloves and hooded jackets in the parkade. Haevischer’s former girlfriend, who can only be identified as KM, also took the stand, saying she helped clean guns and bullets at the apartment the two shared. KM, an admitted gangster herself, said Haevischer and Johnston returned later with garbage bags filled with cash and cellphones. She testified she helped count the money while Haevischer boiled the phones in a pot of water on the stove. She saw Haevischer write a note to his brother that said “people died,” she said.

Other former drug dealers and gangsters testified in the case earlier this year. One, identified only as Person Y, is an admitted two-time murderer currently serving a life sentence, who said Johnston told him about the murders right after they occurred. Person Y said he couldn’t tolerate the fact two innocent people were killed and decided to work as a police informant, wearing wire taps during meetings with his former fellow gangsters. The defence did not call any witnesses to testify, but in closing arguments, Haevischer’s lawyer, Simon Buck, called the evidence against his client “woefully inadequate,” pointing to testimony from key witnesses he said was conflicting and unreliable. One man, who can only be identified as Person X, pleaded guilty in 2009 to three counts of second-degree murder in connection to the slaughter. Bacon is slated be tried separately in May on one count each of conspiracy to commit murder and the first-degree murder of Lal. Another man, Sophon Sek, is also awaiting trial in the case, on a charge of manslaughter. -with files from Vikki Hopes

Promises cost

H

ere’s a simple request for candidates seeking office in the upcoming civiccouncil and board-of-education elections: Promise only what you can deliver. That might seem an obvious request but, all too often, candidates vow to achieve things they clearly cannot. They either fail to provide the true cost of their promise or they promise something outside the legal mandate of the office they seek. Call it exuberance, call it ignorance – either way, it doesn’t serve the voter and it disrespects the process. For example, there are some fairly severe limits on what a city can and cannot do. A city must work within the provincial legislation that governs its existence. A promise to silence every train whistle within the city boundaries might sound attractive, but trains are a federal responsibility and city councils can’t force them do anything. Likewise, a promise by a school-board candidate to hire more teachers won’t happen without an explanation of where the money to pay for those new employees will come from. School districts (unlike the federal or provincial government, or even a city), cannot, by provincial law, run a deficit. Which brings up the second point: money. Rarely does a promise come without a cost, and candidates have an obligation to identify what that cost will be. For example, a promise to increase the number of parks in the city might draw support from residents, but what would it cost to execute, and maintain, such a long-range plan. A promise to cut taxes – long the trusty crutch of the hopeful candidate – or at least hold them at zero, must also include details on where the cuts in services will be made – or alternate revenue found, for there is no third option – to accommodate that plan. None of this is to suggest candidates can’t have ideas – lofty or otherwise – or voice creative solutions to our community’s problems. But they have an obligation to voters to ensure that what they promise is both practical and possible. And we as voters have the responsibility to do the research and ask the tough questions to ensure these lofty ideas have some grounding in reality.

fits all answer. When it doubt, I did what many daughters do in turmoil. I called my mom. Growing up in a low-income, singleparent family, we moved. A lot. It meant being the new kid a grand total of eight times. None of those schools were necessarily ‘choice,’ but they fit the bill for a hard-working, full-time cashier who didn’t have the luxury of driving her offspring to school every day. “You went to regular schools and look how you turned out” said my mother during our late-night phone call. “Life is hard enough, why make it more complicated?” It wasn’t until dropping Molly off for her first day at her neighbourhood school, just a hop, skip and puddle jump away, that I realized mom was right. And I’m not just talking about my own mother. “Mommy, all my friends from preschool are here and they have a library and water fountains, too!” said our little scholar, grinning from dimple-to-dimple when I picked her up from her first day. On the way home she skipped through the puddles and waved to her new friends, who live in our same townhouse complex. Perhaps it’s time I started trusting my own maternal instincts rather than second-guessing every single thought, every ‘choice.’ Well, at least until it’s time to start filling out post-secondary education applications… Kristyl Clark is a former Peace Arch News reporter.

City must be vigilant

Reasons to be thankful

Editor: Re: Stop-work order for highrise, Sept. 23; Highrise developer pays $1,400 in fines, Sept. 25. This has been a controversial development site from the start. The site of the 12-storey building being built on Vidal Street is surrounded by new townhome developments and older low-rise apartment buildings, with difficult access to the street for large vehicles. If it had not been for the vigilance of the residents of Vidal Street, this information would not have come to light. The developer would have gotten away with doing the demolition work without a permit. It is troubling to me as a resident of White Rock how many buildings could have possibly been built without proper permits in place. City hall should be more observant when it comes to these large developments. They are big projects and need to be regulated and overseen by city hall. A fine of $1,400 is very low for these large developers who make millions of dollars selling these properties to off-shore customers at highly inflated prices. Fiona MacDermid, White Rock

Editor: I have many things to be thankful for, particularly that I am alive and not paralyzed. I was enjoying a nice bike ride on Sept. 20, when I had an altercation with a car. The details aren’t important, but it is safe to say the car won. I will recover, but my bike won’t. On the upside, I am now the proud owner of a unicycle. I want to thank all of the passersby who stopped to give me assistance. To the firefighters of Hall 12, thanks for keeping me safe and collecting the pieces of my bicycle. Thank you to my paramedics, Brent and Joe,

Welcome to federal politics Editor: Re: Watts to seek federal seat for Tories, Sept. 18. Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts outing as a Conservative Party of Canada candidate in South SurreyWhite Rock will be thoughtful and a positive contribution to debate. She is right to say that one of the first things you learn quickly in politics is that people are not always what they appear to be. That is true of the Harper neo-Conservatives who remain the Reform Party, provincialist, continentalist and neoconservative – not Tory and Progressive Conservative. Progressive Canadians are Progressive Conservatives, the party of Confederation, of nation-building, national vision and national unity; PCs, principled in the belief that to achieve Tory democracy requires good public policy framed around the people’s interest not party, the national interest and integrity. The young John A. Macdonald put it best: “…our aim should be to enlarge the bounds of our party so as to embrace every person desirous of being counted as a ‘progressive Conservative,’ and who will join in a series of measures to put an end to the corruption which has ruined the present government and debauched all its followers.” As the Tory candidate in South Surrey-White Rock-Cloverdale in 2006, ’08 and ’11, since the CA 2003 takeover of the Tories as the CPC, I am happy to say cordially to Mayor Watts, welcome to national politics. Brian Marlatt, White Rock

for your care and lift to the hospital and much gratitude to my Peace Arch Hospital team of nurse Sarah and Dr. Lamprecht. To the driver that hit me, I realize you didn’t see me, and it meant so much to me that you came to my hospital bed and apologized. Lastly, I am thankful for my community and the good people that live and work here. David Richardson, Langley Q The other morning I opened my door and was surprised to see a package that contained two beautiful and huge cherubs. A note accompanied the package, from a stranger, that explained she – or he – no longer had room for the cherubs and hoped that I did. I just wanted to say thank you to the wonderful and thoughtful

person who has made my day, my week, my month… In no time, these cherubs were hung adorning each side of an ornate mirror in our entry hall. I shall forever cherish this beautiful gift. Your cherubs will always have a home with me and seeing them fills my heart with warmth, remembering fondly their mysterious and exciting arrival. Thank you! Susan Strangway, White Rock I just spent one night in the emergency and two nights on the fifth floor at Peace Arch Hospital. The nurses were wonderful. Excellent food, served with a smile. The whole staff was first rate and excellent doctors. Thank you all. Marjorie Hoogenraad, Surrey

Despite a year of ramped up rail-safety efforts – and many warning signs – walking on the tracks is still common.

Transport of coal takes its toll Editor: We hope from this letter you can capture the essence of this message as we join the many who are fighting the big corporations and government to protect our community from the imposition of health hazards and noise pollution that is beginning to plague our lives. We have been residents in the White Rock/South Surrey neighbourhoods for over 30 years and are fortunate to live in a small home on the bluff overlooking the ocean and our beautiful waterfront. During these past months, and moving towards years, the changes we are now experiencing move us further and further away from the peaceful and healthy environment we have enjoyed for so many years. There are few places in the Lower Mainland that offer such outlooks and we support those who are taking issue with the transport of coal and hazardous materials through our neighbourhood destroying the very reason we came to live in this community. We have heard many people speak of the coal dust from the trains but are now conscious of these comments as we are experiencing a similar and ever-increasing buildup of coal dust on our decks and furniture which causes us great concern for health reasons. As a senior, I am troubled, disturbed and awakened by train whistles throughout the night, which causes us further concern for our restful health and peace of mind. Even with the bylaws in place, the big corporations carry on with complete disregard to the residents or governing authorities regarding whistle times and conscious consideration for those who live and sleep within hearing range of these trains. More trains, longer trains, hazardous waste, loud whistles, breach of laws and the absence of concern and consideration for the communities health and welfare seems to be the order of the day. Hopefully those opposed shall find victory in their efforts and I applaud, support and thank them all. Ronald J. Elliott, White Rock Q

Democracy is broken. Surrey, White Rock, Delta, New Westminster, Langley, Coquitlam and Vancouver councils have all voted to delay the expansion of the Fraser Surrey Docks to accommodate the U.S. coal trains until a proper, independent health study is accomplished. The GVRD voted overwhelmingly against the facility for similar reasons. A cursory study, undertaken by controversial SNC Lavalin, is accepted by the CEO of FSD, despite the fact that Dr. Paul Van Buynder, chief medical officer for Fraser Health, demands further assessment. When the citizens, who were asked to give feedback, send thousands of submissions asking to halt the project and are ignored, something is terribly wrong. In the dog days of August, while many citizens were on vacation or enjoying our sublime weather, the project was given the go-ahead. And now, with few hurdles left, the thermal coal from Wyoming will pass through the Lower Mainland, spewing black dust on its way to China to further pollute the global environment. Well done, Canada! Harvey Ostroff, Surrey

Clear answers needed Re: Air quality to be monitored, Sept. 18. It’s great that the powers that be are monitoring the air quality in West Beach, due to the trains and coal, etc. Having said that – is there any way we could get some monitoring out here in East Beach? We live on Marine Drive, near Stayte Road, and nightly we are bombarded with strong, acrid smoke. I don’t know what it is or where it is coming from, but it’s a shame – with the wonderful cool sea air – that we are forced to shut our windows at night because the wafting smoke is suffocating us. Where is it coming from? What is it? Anyone else experiencing this same nightly phenomenon? Help! I can’t breathe! Sandy Mechefske, White Rock

White Rock council defers vote

7 Piece Dining Set

Rezoning decision on hold A controversial rezoning application for a Thrift Avenue lot has been put on hold indefinitely. White Rock council had been expected to vote Monday night on whether to give third and final readings to the Bylaw 2040 amendment, after voting Sept. 8 to defer the decision in the wake of strong public opposition. The amendment was requested to clear the way for a three-level, six-unit concrete apartment building at 14937 Thrift Ave. If approved, it would have redes-

ignated the lot as a mediumdensity, comprehensive-development zone, and increased maximum allowable density to 50 units per acre from 24. Residents who spoke against the application at a Sept. 8 public hearing criticized the project as not a good fit for the neighbourhood; and criticized council for considering amendments to the city’s Official Community Plan. Monday, council attendees learned the proponent has asked to defer both the rezoning appli-

cation and the associated development permit. Mayor Wayne Baldwin said he did not know why, but suggested it could be that the applicant wants to try to address the community’s concerns. He noted that council is not allowed to discuss the application amongst themselves or receive further information on it from the public. “At this point in time, it’s kind of in limbo,” Baldwin said. – Tracy Holmes

Tako van Popta in running for new riding

Sixth nominee enters And then there were six. Tako van Popta has entered the crowded race for the federal Conservative nomination in the new Cloverdale-Langley City riding. A nomination meeting has not yet been scheduled, but could take place later this fall. Other candidates for the nomination include former MP Gurmant Grewal, former MLA Dave Hayer, Bombay Banquet Hall managing director Paul Brar, former Langley Township councillor Dean Drysdale and lifeinsurance agent Mike Garisto. The riding is newly created for the next election – tentatively scheduled for Oct.

19, 2015 – taking in the northeast portion of the current South Surrey-White RockCloverdale riding and portions of FleetwoodPort Kells and Langley. Van Popta is a Surrey business lawyer. He stepped down as president of the Langley Conservative Electoral District Association (EDA) in order to run for the nomination. “This is something

that I have been passionate about for some time,” said Van Popta. “We are fortunate in Langley City to have been very well represented by MP Mark Warawa since 2004. I want to ensure that the same legacy of integrity, passion and commitment continues as the new CloverdaleLangley City riding seeks representation.” – Black Press

Black Press launches crowdfunding initiative B.C. communities care. So do the Black Press newspapers that directly serve those communities. Reflecting and raising awareness of that caring spirit is part of the core mandate of every Black Press community newspaper, including Peace Arch News. This publication is now part of an exciting new initiative undertaken by Black Press that works to further communicate the good work being done in B.C. communities, and provide a new opportunity for organizations and individuals to tap into that fountain of caring. BlackPress4Good.com is an online platform that brings the popular and successful phenomenon of crowdfunding to Black Press readers. Charitable projects, causes and campaigns will now be able to deliver their message on the community level, safely and securely, in an online format to reach the vast digital audience and funding sources. “Crowd-funding provides a means for individuals, organizations and businesses to raise money by appealing to the public,” explained Andrew Franklin, project lead for Black Press. “This platform is community focused and will be enhanced through the power of your local newspaper. The audience will be very aware of the campaigns and it will be up to the public as to whether they make a donation or not. Early indications show very positive signs. “In addition to the exposure through your community media, the success of the campaigns will also rely on active social media

Anyone can set up a campaign, however there are safeguards in place to ensure each campaign is legitimate,” Franklin said. Black Press launched this new community service on Oct. 1, in partnership with FundRazr, the platform at the roots of BlackPress4Good.com. More than 40,000 people and groups around the world have raised in excess of $50 million via FundRazr. Fundraisers register online via the link on this newspaper’s website home page, provide information about their objectives and fund recipients, and their project profiles are then posted on a dedicated website page to reach out to readers, who can monitor the progress of a specific cause. Supporters make their donations via PayPal, a secure and well-established digital payment system. Less than 10 per cent of the total amount raised will be levied by FundRazr, PayPal

and Black Press to recover the administration, support, marketing and hosting costs associated with this initiative. Readers will also have the opportunity to be inspired and touched by the good news content of the Black Press 4Good blog, at blogs.blackpress4good. com. This site’s content is solely based on the good news stories being reported in Black Press papers across the province. Be introduced to the countless individuals and organizations who are making their communities better places to live. BlackPress4good.com and facebook.com/blackpress4good have been created to help channel and enhance that caring spirit. Black Press is Canada’s largest independently owned newspaper company, with more than 150 titles in print and online in British Columbia, Alberta, Washington, Hawaii, California and Ohio.

Every woman has a story I peninsula

zoomers

There she is, in her natural, splendour with her coat of azure and turquoise blue. Giant, turbulent, noisy waves crashing unapologetically against the shore. Now that is one hell of a gal! And there are three more remarkable women I should like you to meet… in person. One is a woman who is born into a life of privilege only to become a closet alcoholic. She is Helen Burnham, co-founder of Avalon Recovery Centres for Women. The second is a published author, Maggie de Vries, whose sister is one of Robert Pickton’s victims. The third is a six-foot striking blonde who is a social activist and sexual-health advocate. Her name is Velvet Steele, a transgendered woman. And they all have an incredible story to tell of resilience in overcoming adversity. Come meet them at our CARP event on Sunday, Oct. 19 at Morgan Creek Golf Course from 11:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. Luncheon and fashion show included. Tickets are $50. For more information, please contact Denice at 604-538-5778. Men are welcome; you can roar with us. April Lewis is the local communications director for CARP, a national group committed to a ‘New Vision of Aging for Canada.’ She writes monthly.

A rare boost for legal aid Tom Fletcher Black Press

The B.C. government has added to its pareddown legal aid budget to finance the hiring of a second staff lawyer to handle urgent family law cases, and to expand legal advice by phone for other family disputes around the province. Attorney General Suzanne Anton announced Tuesday the expansion of a pilot program that started with a staff lawyer in Vancouver dedicated to legal aid clients with family law disputes. The second family court “duty counsel� will be based in Victoria. The program is funded with an extra $2 million a year for three years, bringing this year’s Legal Services Society budget to $74.5 million. This allows double the time for eligible clients to receive legal advice by phone. Legal Services Society board chair Tom Christensen said the phone service will now be able to offer eligible clients up to six hours with the same lawyer, to get advice on issues such as child support and parenting arrangements so they can represent themselves in family court. “There are always going to be cases where the situation is so dire

that we need to appoint a lawyer to assist somebody in court,� Christensen said. “And with family services, that’s generally where violence is threatened, or where somebody faces a serious chance of their interaction with their children being cut off, like when one parent’s going to leave the province with them, and the other parent needs to stop that.� Anton said there are three more pilot projects to come. These are an expanded model for legal aid staff lawyers in criminal cases, a parents’ legal centre for child protection cases and a family mediation referral program. The financing move comes as the Trial Lawyers’ Association of B.C. resumes its intermittent strike against legal aid work to protest the lack of funding. Lawyers are refusing legal aid for the first week of each month in a protest that began in July. The association notes that 80 per cent of people in family court are not represented by a lawyer, and that the rate paid to legal aid lawyers hasn’t changed since the B.C. government cut the Legal Service Society budget by about 40 per cent between 2001 and 2005.

Q

uestion: My father died leaving an estate of about 3 million. The funeral was last week and I told the brother and sister that my father appointed executors that I wanted my money right away to pay off my credit cards and put a down payment on a house. There were originally four of us children in the will but a brother was killed while my dad was in the hospital. My brother had two teenage children, so I Àgure that I should get about a million which is a third of the estate. The executors say it will take at least six months. Are they crazy? What could take so long. I need the money now.

Keep Public Charities Public Donors Rights Society

A

nswer: You raise two questions. Firstly the amount you will be getting. The children of the brother that was killed are entitled to their father’s share, so adjust your budgeting to getting a quarter of the estate. Secondly, there is a lot of work to be done by the executors before they can make an application to Court which will give them legal access to assets of the estate. Even after the application, it can take several months for the Court to grant the order. In addition the Public Guardian and Trustee must be informed about the bequest to the teenagers and they must be satisiÀed that those children are protected. This will also take time. Don’t plan on putting a deposit on a house for at least six months.

Delta proposal opposed by paramedics, criticized as downloading

‘Ride the culture wave into the City by the Sea’

Firefighter plan divisive Jeff Nagel Black Press

A plan by Delta council to train firefighters to handle more medical duties as emergency first responders is being closely watched by other cities in the Lower Mainland and is under fire from unionized ambulance paramedics. The proposed three-year pilot project wouldn’t let firefighters transport patients, but they’d be permitted to perform more tasks now reserved for paramedics, including the insertion of artificial airways, testing and treatment of blood glucose levels and administering some medications, such as injections for allergic reactions. Surrey fire chief Len Garis said it’s “refreshing” that B.C. Emergency Health Services, which runs the ambulance service, has tentatively agreed to authorize the higher level of medical service by firefighters after a previous proposal from Surrey was rejected. He wants to see what evidence comes back from Delta’s project, which still awaits final approval in late October from the Provincial Health Services Authority board. “If it were improving outcomes and service to the public, I think that’s an incredibly great thing and that would compel others to look at it,” Garis said.

Delta intends to train its firefighters to perform a broader range of emergency medical duties. The push for a greater role for firefighter first responders comes after a year of accusations from cities that ambulance service has been severely degraded by the province’s move to reduce the priority for less urgent 911 calls in favour of faster response to critical emergencies. Port Coquitlam Mayor Greg Moore said Delta’s decision may raise costs for municipal taxpayers and runs contrary to the traditional concern of local governments about downloading by the provincial government. “The province just decided to reduce their service levels and Delta in this case is deciding to

accept it and fill that hole that the ambulance service is not providing,” Moore said. “As soon as we cross that line we start to become an ambulance service, and what’s the next step after that? I think that’s a slippery slope to go down.” The concept was denounced by Bronwyn Barter, union president of the Ambulance Paramedics of B.C., who called it a costly duplication of service. Michael Hurley, president of the B.C. Professional Fire Fighters’ Association, said his organization doesn’t believe Delta’s initiative would threaten ambulance paramedic jobs and would withdraw support if that occurred.

Q healthy cooking Q oncology esthetics Q dental erosion Q breast cancer survivor story

It’s that time of the year again. Kids have returned to school and summer holidays are over, our busy lives can make it difficult to eat healthy. Preparing and cooking nutritious meals in an efficient way is key. These tips can help: • Chop extra fruit and vegetables when preparing meals so you have extra for snacks and meals the next day. • Buy pre-cut vegetables such as broccoli, squash and mushrooms. • Choose lower-sodium convenience food to help speed up prep time. Try canned or bottled tomato-based sauces, frozen of canned vegetables and fruit, canned tuna or salmon, and canned beans or lentils. • Cook on the weekend, then freeze the meals for the upcoming busy week. Options include soups, stews, casseroles, pasta dishes and chili. • Cook twice the chicken and ground beef you need and keep extras in the fridge to make chicken salad, enchiladas, chili or spaghetti sauce the next day. • Ask the kids to help. Depending on their age, they can wash and peel vegetable, tear up lettuce, wash and cut fruit, or stir a pot. • Invest in time-saving appliances, including a slow cooker, which is a great way to come home to a warm meal. A hand blender can help make quick soups, sauces and smoothies, and a mini-chopper makes dicing garlic and onions easier. Eating leftovers is also a huge timesaver, but there is no need to have the same meal twice. Leftover salmon, for instance, can be added to a salad or sandwich for a quick lunch, or mashed to make salmon cakes. For leftover chili, try stuffing peppers with it then baking, or toss it in with whole grain pasta. The same sort of solution goes for cooked vegetables. Whip them up into an omelet or add to a pasta dish. For more information visit healthycanadians.gc.ca

Dental Care with a gentle touch Family & Cosmetic Dentistry

protect your

teeth from enamel erosion Enamel erosion can happen to anyone if they don’t take care of their pearly whites properly. “We see it in young children, but more commonly in older adults because their teeth have been functioning much longer,â€? says Dr. Edmund Wong from South Point Dental in South Surrey. Enamel is a thick outer covering that covers the crown, part of the tooth that is visible. It protects your teeth from daily use, such as biting and chewing, and insulated the teeth from potentially painful temperatures. Causes of dental erosion include: • Frequent acidic exposure, such as sucking on lemons or consuming a lot of vinegar. • Frequent vomiting or gastric reflux. Stomach contents are acidic so enamel erosion is common among people with bulimia, an eating disorder that is associated with binge eating and vomiting, a source of acid. • Clenching and grinding. Many people subconsciously clench or grind their teeth, resulting in mechanical erosion of enamel. • Aggressive brushing with a hard bristle brush.

NEW PATIENTS WELCOME!

Prevention is key, says Wong. He recommends using a a soft or electric toothbrush to help ward off enamel erosion.

A night guard, an oral appliance you wear at night, can help prevent grinding. Wong also suggests reducing stomach acid by taking antacids. Since enamel is translucent, the main part of the tooth – the dentin – is responsible for tooth colour — whether white, off white, grey or yellowish.

breast cancer survivor encourages routine mammograms

Going for your routine mammogram may be a bit uncomfortable, but it’s a life-saving exam that can detect breast cancer early on. Suzanne Mihaly, who was diagnosed at 47 years old with no family history, knows the importance of detecting breast cancer in the initial stages. After feeling unusually tired, she went for a mammogram in January 2013 and found out she had Stage 1, Grade 3 breast cancer. While Grade 3 is the most aggressive type of breast cancer, she was fortunate to catch it during Stage 1. “If I had waited, it likely could have been worse,” says Mihaly, a Peace Arch News sales representative. The BC Cancer Agency recommends women over the age of 40 have a mammography every two years, but due to feeling uncharacteristically tired, Mihaly had the exam done 18 months after the previous one. (Women with a mother, sister or daughter who have had breast cancer should be screened every year.) “You need to take charge of your own health. If you feel like something isn’t OK, it’s your right to have a mammogram done more frequently,” she says. Due to early detection, Mihaly avoided chemotherapy, and kept both her breasts and hair. Instead, she had 16 treatments of radiation, a procedure that is much easier on the body than chemo. “I was diagnosed on January 18, 2013, and in the first week of February I had my first surgery to remove a tumor. It was nine millimeters in diameter. Radiation started in April.” Thankful for her relatively quick recovery, Mihaly is urging women over the age of 40 to go for a mammogram every two years. Yes, it may be a bit uncomfortable, but she says there is “absolutely no excuse” not to go, especially with the exam locations conveniently in South Surrey and White Rock. Early detection of breast cancer through mammographies increases the chances of surviving breast cancer. In Canada, one in nine women is expected to develop breast cancer in her lifetime, according to The Canadian Breast Cancer Association. Eighty-eight percent will survive for at least five years, while 1 in 30 will die from the disease. Since 1986 – when mortality rates peaked – mammography screening, advances in screening technology and improved treatments have decreased the mortality rate by 43 per cent. It is, however, still the most common cancer diagnosed in Canadian women over the age of 20. “I feel very fortunate to have caught the cancer early on,” says Mihaly. “I always wanted to have an optimistic outlook on it, and I told my family this. “If I delayed going for a mammogram – like many women do – I likely wouldn’t have been so fortunate. To make an appointment for a mammogram, call the BC Cancer Agency at 604-877-6187 or the mammography unit at Peace Arch Hospital at 604-535-4510.

White Rock Concerts, a cornerstone of cultural activity on the Semiahmoo Peninsula for close to 60 years, has named two new associate artistic directors to assist and eventually succeed series founder George Zukerman – and they’re concert artists well known to local audiences. The piano duo, wife-husband team of Elizabeth and Marcel Bergmann, named to the roles last Friday by organization president Erika Bennedik, will assume full artistic

“George kept threatening that one day he was going to retire, but for a while, nobody believed it.” Bennedik said a bout of poor health Zukerman experienced in the spring of this year – he is now fully recovered – was “a scare” that made immediate past-president Rick Gambrel’s insistence that finding an associate artistic director to ensure smooth continuity for the series needed to be addressed. She said the Bergmanns fit all the criteria advanced and were unanimously accepted i see page 34

Kindred spirits merge Alex Browne Arts Reporter

It didn’t take long for painters Ashley Jackson and Kevin ‘Jordie’ Jordan to identify each other as kindred spirits while exhibiting at the Arnold Mikelson Festival of the Arts last year. Among the expected landscapes and florals, their work Ashley Jackson stood out for a similar love of vibrant colour, unconventional subject matter, an underlying spiritual quality and a disciplined eagerness to focus on detail to achieve their effects. Kevin Jordan That’s why it’s appropriate that their work will be featured sideby-side in a joint show – A Life in Spirit and Colour – opening this Saturday (Oct. 4) at the Mind &

Matter Gallery, 13743 16 Ave. It’s the first major show for both the Pretoria, South Africa-born Jackson (who has lived on the Semiahmoo Peninsula since her family immigrated to Canada in 2001) and the London, Englandborn, Montreal-raised Jordan, who has lived in Fleetwood for the past 20 years. Jackson said re-encountering Jordan at an art show in Fleetwood earlier this year meant he was top of mind when Mind & Matter

owner Mary Mikelson – also at the same event – asked her if she’d be interested in being featured in a joint show, and whether she knew of another artist who could also be featured. “I’d never forgotten Jordie,” she said. “It’s very difficult to moved by another artist’s work, but one of his paintings – An African piece showing a mother with a child swaddled on her back – made me cry, but in a good way. “I told Mary I wanted to show

my paintings with Jordie’s – but it was only afterward that I realized how well we complement each other in our work.” That’s very much the case even though their works may ultimately appear to take very different paths, Jordan said. “Hers are really detailed abstracts, while mine are more based in realism,” he noted. Even so, Jordan is no stranger to taking pains. The largely selftaught artist – he

first discovered his love of drawing through his appreciation for the dynamic impact of comic art panels – painted an early series focusing on the wildlife of the Sahara as an exercise in pointillism. The complexity of the technique – building effects out of miniscule spots of colour – has “always been a way to focus,” he said. “It forces you to focus and also to step away from the canvas. It also forces you to know when to i see page 36

‘No one can replace’ Zukerman as artistic director

Faith

Elizabeth and Marcel Bergmann, at piano, join White Rock Concerts founder George Zukerman and president Erika Bennedik as new associate artistic directors for the series.

i from page 33 by the board. “We’re very excited and very honoured to be asked,” Elizabeth Bergmann said. “No-one can replace George, and obviously, we’re a two-headed associate artistic director, but we’re used to working together.” Both said they were looking forward to working with and learning from Zukerman during the current season and 201516. “It’s wonderful – so much better than doing things abruptly,” Marcel said. “It’s a great opportunity to do something like this well. What George has achieved is unique, and this assures the stability of the organization and the audience.” Zukerman said he remains keenly interested in the self-supporting subscription series he founded.

“You’re not going to get rid of me just yet – I’ll still be around,” he quipped, while saying he felt the series would be in good hands in future with the Bergmanns. As musicians themselves, he added, the Bergmanns understand the needs of both the audiences and the artists, and he noted that in the last few years they have also embraced his passion for bringing concerts to more remote, far-flung areas of Canada. White Rock Concerts now commands a sold-out audience of 800, with a waiting list of some 300 names. Since 1956 it has presented close to 350 concerts, bringing Peninsula audiences such stellar performers as Ben Heppner, James Ehnes, Tafelmusik, The King’s Singers, Angela Hewitt, Juillard Quartet, Louis Lortie, Octagon, Anton Kuerti, Russell Braun and Isabel Bayrkdarian.

Show runs daily until end of month i from page 33 stop, and how to have balance – as the father of two girls, I need balance.” His wife, Jackie, and their daughters, Jada and Kenya, have inspired much of his subject matter, he acknowledges, all the way from celebrating the joy of pregnancy and motherly love to the dance and basketball enthusiasms of the two girls. The upcoming show will feature representative samples of all of his work, he added, including the most recent series, inspired by the “beauty of the African people.” “A friend of mine spent some time in Africa and sent me back pictures. She said, ‘Kevin, the colours are amazing.’ I wanted to contrast the blandness of the backgrounds with

the vibrant colours that the people surround themselves with – I hope I do it justice.” Colour has also been important to Jackson from a very early age – she, too, was inspired by the bright colours she saw as a child in South Africa. “I used to do African art, and I kept the colours of that,” she said, noting that she was selftaught until a portfolio course she took with artist Chris Lagisse at White Rock’s Neighbourhood Art Studios “developed into a six-year journey filled with volunteering, freelancing and teaching opportunities.” But her fascinatingly detailed, passionate canvases – she describes the work as ‘spiritual surrealism’ – have many influences, including images that have

appeared to her both in remembered dreams and daydreams. “I get visions – images float in my mind as I paint. The images develop as I’m developing a piece. I’m thinking, what else I can put in there. “This is how I receive my information – I’ve always been very visual. There are enormous amounts of detail. The best way I can describe what I do is soul art, expressing the deep recesses of the mind. “It really is an intuitive process – I start with

a black canvas, always. It’s about bringing light to darkness. I’ve tried painting on white and it doesn’t work.” As the artists discuss the upcoming show their mutual respect is evident, along with the humour of their friendship. “We have some good laughs,” Jackson acknowledged. “I don’t think meeting Jordie was by chance – we’re so much the same in what we do.” The show is open daily from noon to 6 p.m., until Oct. 31.

Valley West beats Thompson Blazers for first victories of year

Semiahmoo!

Hawks cruise to two wins Rick Kupchuk Black Press

The Valley West Hawks dominated one of the league’s weaker teams last weekend, posting their first two victories of the season to get back to .500. The Hawks stopped the Thompson Blazers 5-1 and 6-0 in Richmond, two games which were part of the B.C. Hockey Major Midget League Showcase Weekend. Valley West is now at 2-2-0 (won-lost-tied) and in sixth-place in the 11-team league. “It was a week later than I had hoped, but it was good to notch our first wins of the season,” said Hawks head coach Jessie Leung. “I credit our team for sticking to our game plan and committing to the team game in both victories. We got contributions from our entire lineup both offensively and defensively. Lots of pressure and pace.” Luke Gingras of Langley paced the Hawks Saturday, scoring twice and assisting on another. Jeffrey Stewart of Surrey also netted a pair of goals, while Logan Webber tallied once. White Rock defenceman Matt Barberis, who has returned to the team from the training

Barberis added another two helpers for a six-point weekend. Of the 11 goals scored over the weekend, four came with the man advantage, a positive sign. While not allowing the Blazers to score on the powerplay, Leung feels the Hawks need to improve while playing a man short. “Our powerplay was lethal this weekend, which is a good sign after opening weekend,” he said. “We’ll continue to put some work into our penalty kill. We have the basic framework set up, but need a lot of repetition to really round it into form.” Although the Hawks were designated as the home team for the weekend series with the Blazers, Valley West has still to play on home ice.

Two losses at home have dropped the Kwantlen Polytechnic (KPU) Eagles men’s soccer team back to .500 and into a four-team race for three playoff positions. The Eagles were blanked 1-0 by the Quest Kermodes Saturday afternoon and lost 2-0 to the Vancouver Island Mariners Sunday in a pair of Pacific Northwest (PACWEST) Conference games at Newton Athletic Park. Now at 3-3-3 (wontied-lost), the Eagles are in second place, one points ahead of Quest, the Langara Falcons and Douglas College Royals. The top four teams will qualify for the provincial playoff Oct. 25-26 in Squamish. Saturday was KPU’s best chance to earn some points. The Eagles attacked from the start, and thought they had taken an early lead. But an offside call wiped out the goal, and although they created several chances over the 90 minutes, were unable to get on the scoreboard. Rylan Sangha, Holy Cross high school graduate Dalton San and Seaquam Secondary graduate Jacob Starheim combined to press for a tying goal, without success. “I thought we played really well, created chances and a had beautiful goal that didn’t make it on the sheet,” said head coach Srdjan

Djekanovic. “We kept pushing forward but goals changed games, they got one and, unfortunately for us, the ball just didn’t want to cross that line.” The Mariners scored once in each half to get the win Sunday, and increased their lead over the Eagles to 11 points in the standings. KPU’s women’s team picked up four points from two games on the weekend, and with their 3-3-3 mark are in fourth place, six points clear of fifth-place Quest. The Eagles topped Quest 1-0 on Saturday at Newton Athletic Park. First-year midfielder Chloe Bottrell netted the lone goal of the game for the Eagles, while rookie netminder Chantalle Bracken earned her second consecutive shutout. “We had lots of energy and lots of intensity in the second half and it made all the difference,” said KPU head coach Julie King. “We were also able to minimize the impact of our mistakes. We’re not perfect but our mistakes haven’t hurt us like they have in the past.” Against first-place Vancouver Island University Sunday in Newton, the Eagles were satisfied with a scoreless tie. The two Eagles teams will play twice against Capilano next weekend, kicking off in North Vancouver Saturday before games Sunday at noon (women) and 2 p.m. (men) at Newton Athletic Park.

OF THE WEEK!

Safety Tip: Fall can be a good time to get a deal on a new or used car, truck or SUV. If you’re shopping for a vehicle, look for the newest, safest one in your price range and check the U.S. Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) website for vehicle safety ratings.

comes with driving the 5.0L V8 in the GT. This engine is very good, it has a lot of mid-range torque making the Mustang accelerate easily and it passes well on the highway. There isn’t the classic V8 rumble but this compromise is easy to take, knowing that this model has plenty of power for the average daily commuter. The true muscle car enthusiast will be attracted to the 435hp 5.0L V8. Power goes through either a 6-speed manual or 6-speed automatic with paddle shifters on the steering wheel. The big change to the chassis is the introduction of an independent rear suspension and modified front suspension, plus bigger brakes. Carving through the canyons outside of LA was a treat, the platform is very forgiving and there is no longer any unstable mid-corner surprises found in the older cars, just a very sure-footed modern car. Verdict Fifty years is a long time to continually produce a single car model. What comes out of this is a cumulative result that is hard to

beat. The engineers have done a great job of bringing the suspension into the modern world and the new EcoBoost engine will be very popular, once people try it. The oldschool buyers will be attracted to the meaty V8 but often, sensible decisions prevail and the EcoBoost is a solid experience. The styling is stunning, inside and out. To be blunt, this car will be a homerun for Ford. There are two things I’d like to see improved. The seat back has no electric actuation, which means getting the right spot is hard to achieve. The second is the suspension in the GT can be a bit bouncy over city conditions but settles right down at highway speeds – pretty minor stuff for an all-new car.

Appia’s SOLO District rises among the clouds in Burnaby By Kerry Vital

Appia Developments’ SOLO District is heading into fall and continuing construction on the first tower, Stratus, and Burnaby’s first Whole Foods. The second tower, Altus, has recently begun sales and will soon rise as the tallest tower in Burnaby. When it’s complete, SOLO District will comprise four beautiful residential towers with over 1,400 homes and tons of

retail and other commercial space. “People are embracing the community concept,” says Lisa Murrell, sales and marketing manager for Appia. “Everything about SOLO District is about quality, from the retailers to the suites themselves.” In addition to Whole Foods, SOLO District will welcome Shoppers Drug Mart, a Signature BC Liquor Store, Uncle Fatih’s pizza, Stripped wax bar, and Ricky’s All-Day-Grill. Dr. Danial Deheshi and his staff will be moving to SOLO

NEW HOME DEVELOPMENT

District Dental next year, and an outlet of the B.C. Automobile Association will also call SOLO District home. SOLO District, which stands for South of Lougheed, is a complete community with a balanced mix of office, retail and green space, as well as gorgeous homes. The towers will soon become an iconic part of the Burnaby skyline. Altus will be the equivalent of 55 storeys tall, with homes starting from 200 feet up and office space below. Altus will also house Club 55, an enormous amenity space with a barbecue area, full kitchen, media area, billiards and ping-pong tables and generous outdoor deck space. All of this will be located on the top floor of the tower. A quieter retreat will be located on the roof deck of the 15th floor. The office tower will include a gym that residents have access to as well, and a unique outdoor multi-sport court on the third floor. SOLO District is perfectly situated for transit, shopping, education and leisure activities. Homes at SOLO District start in the low-$300,000s. For more information, visit www.solodistrict.com, call 604-2988800 or visit the presentation centre at 2131 Willingdon Avenue, open daily except Friday between noon and 5 p.m.

Burnaby’s Brentwood neighbourhood is becoming one of the top places to live in the Lower Mainland. Developers such as Bosa Developments, Appia Developments, Shape Properties and Concord Pacific are all building in the area.

Playing and living in Brentwood By Kerry Vital

Burnaby’s Brentwood neighbourhood is a rapidly growing region, with plenty of opportunities for shopping, dining, education and recreation, from golf courses to rowing to swimming. With new homes popping up every year, the area is an exciting place to live and is becoming a major urban centre. Brentwood is about 20 minutes from downtown Vancouver via SkyTrain, and about 30 minutes from the Vancouver International Airport. This contributes to the popularity of the neighbourhood with

young professionals who commute to work. Among the developers who are building in the neighbourhood are Appia Developments, Ledingham McAllister, Concord Pacific, Bosa Development, Shape Properties and Embassy Developments. Brentwood is full of opportunities for education, from preschool to post-secondary. The largest institution is Simon Fraser University, just a few minutes from the centre of Brentwood on Burnaby Mountain. Rated as one of Canada’s top three comprehensive universities for almost 20 years running, SFU is home to approximately 32,000 students and about 2,500 faculty and staff. The British Columbia Institute of Technology also has its main campus in Burnaby. Established in 1964, it was the first permanent trade school of its kind in B.C., and includes courses in business, information technology and engineering, among other disciplines.

It is hard to be bored in Brentwood, with its selection of parks, art galleries, museums and theatres, among other activities. If it’s a bit of culture you’re looking for, you can start up on Burnaby Mountain at the Simon Fraser University Art Gallery. It’s open to the public free of charge and the displays change every few months. SFU also houses the Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology, which showcases artifacts from around the world, with a focus on British Columbia. There are several parks in Burnaby, so outdoor activity is never far away. Burnaby Lake Regional Nature Park includes a dog off-leash area, the Burnaby Sports Complex, the Burnaby Equestrian Centre and several walking and cycling trails. The lake itself has a rowing course for canoeing, kayaking and rowing training. Confederation Park is also an activity hub, with walking trails, a skate park, a lacrosse

box, a running track, a community centre, several picnic sites and playgrounds, baseball diamonds and other playing fields. It’s also home to the McGill branch of the Burnaby Public Library and the Eileen Dailly Leisure Pool and Fitness Centre. Brentwood is a well-connected neighbourhood, with several options for public transportation, walking or cycling if you feel like leaving your car behind. Because it’s nearly the centre of Metro Vancouver, it is easy to get on your way, whatever way you choose. Among the transit possibilities are SkyTrain and several bus routes. Your first stop for some retail therapy is Brentwood Town Centre, located in the centre of Brentwood and well-served by transit, including its own SkyTrain station. With a variety of shops, you’ll be able to do much of your browsing in one spot. Brentwood is a cook’s dream, with stores such as Bosa Foods, famous for amazing Italian imports, and Cioffi’s Meat Market and Deli. Grocery stores such as Safeway and Save-On Foods are also in the area.

DENNESS, Anne Laura (nee Bevan) March 24th 1947 September 27th 2014 It is with great sadness that we announce the very sudden passing of a beloved wife, devoted mother, loving nana, faithful sister and loyal friend, fondly known as “Annie” to some. She was a care-giver by nature, selfless, and always putting the needs and happiness of

others above her own. She will be significantly missed by her loved ones and the friends and families whose lives she deeply touched. Anne was predeceased by her parents Reta and Ralph Bevan and sister Carol. She is survived

by her loving and devoted husband Paul, her children Susan (Brian) and Janet; grandchildren Jordynn, Chris, Rori, and Alicia. She is also survived by her sisters Joan (Doug), Elaine, and brother in-law Brenton. She lost a courageous battle with cancer. A very special thank you to the nurses in the SMH ICU for the comfort, care and compassion they showed her and making her final hours more bearable for all of us that had to let her go and say good-bye. A Celebration of Anne`s life (service and reception to follow) will be held October 7th at 1:30 pm. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the White Rock Hospice Society at 15510 Russell Ave., White Rock V4B 2R3

GIBSON, John Arthur 1928 – 2O14 Peacefully, on September 27, 2014 John lost his long and bravely fought battle with failing health. John was born in Fredericton, New Brunswick, the son of Lillian and Harry Gibson. He was predeceased by his parents, his sister Helen and his brother, Charles.

A graduate of the University of New Brunswick, John pursued a short career in Forestry and then entered the family business, John Gibson and Son in Fredericton – a fourth generation member. Following his retirement, he and June lived in Halifax, NS and Surrey, BC, which gave them the opportunity to spend their later years closer to their children & grandchildren, all of whom live in western Canada. The family extends heartfelt thanks to their many friends for their help and support during John’s illness; to the Seniors Come Share Program of White Rock – Surrey; to the wonderful and caring staff at Peace Portal Lodge and to the amazing doctors and nurses – especially Dr. Debra Harper, who cared for him, both privately and during his many visits to Peace Arch Hospital in White Rock.

OBITUARIES

DIERKER, ANNEMARIE ELIZABETH (nee Bahe) MAY 3, 1926 - SEPTEMBER 15, 2014

“Every day of life is a precious gift from God.” At 88 years of age, Annemarie was called to be with God and her loving husband of 63 years, Kurt. She recently boarded a nonstop flight to Heaven, waved goodbye to her family and friends, and is now in her new heavenly home. Missing her and loving her always, are son Glen, daughter in law Janice, and the twinkle of Oma’s eyes, grandson Colin. Annemarie and Kurt emigrated from Germany in 1954 to live permanently in “the best place on earth”, Canada. Annemarie was a very proud Canadian. She enjoyed quilting and knitting; being especially proud of knitting over 800 comfort dolls for orphaned children in third world countries. In early years she enjoyed traveling with Kurt to wonderful destinations such as China, Australia, Europe, and her beloved Fiji. Glen, Janice, and Colin would like to thank the wonderful people who made such an amazing impact on Oma’s life including the congregation of Mount Olive Lutheran Church, Meals on Wheels, HandyDart, her neighbours in Southwynd, and Fraser Health. During the final five months of Oma’s life she received wonderful care from several Fraser Health facilities; Peace Arch Hospital, Peninsula Seniors Village, Yale Road Centre, West Shore Laylum Rest Home, and Delta Hospital. In particular the family would like to offer sincerest thanks and “Besten Dank” to Dr. Werner Spangehl for his exceptional care of Oma over many years. A celebration of Annemarie’s life will take place at Mount Olive Lutheran Church, 2350 - 148th Street, South Surrey on Thursday, October 9, 2014 at 11:00. Oma’s long time Pastor, Peter Hanson, will officiate. In lieu of flowers, donations to either the Peace Arch or Delta Hospital Foundations, or Mount Olive Lutheran Church, would be greatly appreciated.

JEAN OCTOBER 24, 1931 SEPTEMBER 20, 2014 Jean Elizabeth Elliott, 82, of South Surrey, British Columbia, passed away on Saturday September 20, 2014 after a two year battle with lung cancer. To her final day she was laughing with her family, and died peacefully and with grace surrounded by her husband and her children. Born October 24, 1931 in London, England, she was the daughter of the late Albert Petti fer and Jane Pettifer. She married Tony Edward on Aprill2, 1952, and he survives. Also surviving are one son, John Edward of Langley BC, and three daughters, Janice Ellen of Vancouver, BC, Barbara Jane of Richmond, BC; Patricia (Tish) Lynn of Calgary, A.B; and nine grandchildren, Kyle, Siobhan, Frazer, Jamie, Alicia, Rory, Tara, Savannah and Kira; two brothers, Brian and Sam Pettifer of South Africa; and numerous cousins, nephews and nieces around the world. Two loving sisters, Marge and Judy, and a brother, Jim, preceded her in death. Jean was an amazing woman endowed with a true sense of empathy and wonderful cockney humour. As a young child she survived the London blitz as well as evacuation, often in difficult circumstances. Although she travelled widely in Canada and Europe with her family, while Tony served in the Royal Navy and later in the RCAF, in her heart she remained forever a Londoner. Tony and Jean retired for a time to Sooke, BC and eventually to settle in White Rock I South Surrey. After so long having their children far away, they all finally coalesced in the Lower Mainland, and have lived close these past 11 years. Jean worked in the fashion world in London until she married, and then stayed home to raise her four children. Later she managed numerous food operations, and for a time her own clothing business. She volunteered extensively in the community, in recent years for the Peach Arch Hospice Society. Jean enjoyed cooking for her family, particularly Sunday dinners. She was a great fan of Julia Nesrallah on CBC 2 and loved any goings-on with a social side, such as dancing, playing cards with her grandchildren, darts in the pub and the bowling league. Jean was also an avid film buff, famous for her knowledge of the Hollywood stars and movies of the '40s and 50s. Jean taught us all to laugh and smile in the midst of trouble and hopefully we always will follow that marvelous example. Memorial services will be conducted at 11:00 am on Friday, October 3, 2014 at Victory Memorial Park Funeral Centre in Surrey. The family will receive friends at a Celebration of Life at 2 pm on Saturday, October 4, 2014 at La Mesa Community Centre, 2456 Cranley Drive, South Surrey.
