SURREY BRINGS PENNE WITH HOME ITS YOUR POLITICS? REPORT CARD ▶ CITY’S QUALITY OF LIFE IS AVERAGE AND NEEDS IMPROVEMENT, STUDY SUGGESTS

RICK KUPCHUK

Surrey offers its citizens an average quality of life to residents, according to the first Vital Signs report on the city. The report, released Wednesday morning at the Surrey Arts Centre, is a joint effort between SurreyCares and the Surrey Board of Trade (SBOT) and is a combination of research and a public opinion poll. It studies 11 performance indicators established by Community Foundations of Canada, including safety, standard of living, transportation, the environment, the economy and housing. Surrey earned a C- grade in seven categories and a D+ in the other four. According to the report, C is an average performance which suggests additional effort must be made, while D is a below-average performance that Safety needs additional work. Overall, 571 respondents gave their city a C, rating Surrey’s quality of life as satisfactory but needing improvement. “We didn’t know what to expect. This is the first time doing this with Surrey Cares,” said Surrey Board of Trade CEO Anita Huberman. “It’s not a bad thing; it’s an average performance.” Transportation The city’s growing population, which is forecast to overtake Vancouver’s in the next two decades, indicates Surrey is a desired destination. But the growth also presents huge challenges in keeping pace with a population that already exceeds half-a-million people. “There are (thousands of) people moving here each month,” said Huberman. “So we’re playing catch-up in several areas. We don’t have the necessary infrastructure Arts & Culture in place, or the transportation or the education (schools). “Vital Signs is an opportunity for us. We can say to all levels of government, particularly federal and provincial, that Surrey can’t be ignored.” The report listed Surrey’s parks, festivals and events, locally grown food, natural environment and its diverse cultures as its bright spots. Leading the list of things to improve is Surrey’s crime rate. “Every gender, every neighboruhood, every income group, every ethnicity, and nearly ever age group selected crime as the top concern in Surrey,” said the report, citing homelessness, mental illness and addiction as suspected sources of criminal activity.

Pastafarian Obi Canuel submitted his nomination papers for a run at city council in Surrey on Wednesday. The ordained minister in the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster wore his formal head covering for the occasion – a stainless steel colander. EVAN SEAL

Pasta man is running for the people ▼ OBI MANUEL, AN ORDAINED MINISTER IN THE CHURCH OF THE FLYING SPAGHETTI MONSTER, WANTS TO REPRESENT THOSE ON LOW INCOMES

KEVIN DIAKIW

Surrey voters straining to decide who to vote for this fall will have a Pastafarian in the pot. The Leader has learned that Surrey’s own ordained minister in the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster is running for city council this fall. Wearing a white dress shirt, tie and formal colander (he wears the metal strainer for special occasions), Obi Canuel, 36, spoke about what he hopes to undertake as he runs for Surrey council. The former philosophy student at SFU has no election platform and no agenda, he says, other than to draw attention to the notion of council members being able to address social issues while making what he considers to be a handsome salary. Councillors make just over $60,000 per year. “What concerns me, is that when you earn that much money – the average Surrey salary is $32,000 – that puts you in a place where you are unable to represent the people that you are governing.” Canuel’s plan, if elected, is to accept a $20,000 annual salary and donate the rest to worthwhile not-for-profits. He plans to make issues important to the average wage-earner his prime concern. Canuel made headlines recently when he lost his right to wear a colander on his head – which he says is part of his religion – for his B.C. driver’s licence photo. In August, he said he believed he would be able to wear the noodle strainer when he renewed his licence last fall, because ICBC Obi Canuel allows the right to religious expression. But in a letter, the insurer told him “there is no religious requirement that prohibits you from removing the colander for the purpose of taking the photo to appear on your driver’s license (sic).” ICBC said its religious head-covering policy strives to strike a balance between respect for the driver’s religious beliefs and a need to preserve the integrity of the licensing system. The company told Canuel it would not issue him a new driver’s licence with a photo of him wearing the colander, but he was able to obtain interim paper licences in the meantime while the dispute continued to simmer. Last Friday, he was told that avenue had come to an end and he would need to submit to a colander-less photo. “We will always try to accommodate customers with head coverings where their faith prohibits them from removing it,” ICBC told CTV News Vancouver in a statement. continued on page 4

▶ SURREY FIRST OPENS ITS CAMPAIGN OFFICE Scores of people packed the Surrey First campaign office in Newton on Wednesday as the coalition officially opened its doors. The office, at 7321 137 St., is strategically placed near a crime hotspot of Newton, telegraphing the number-one issue in the fall election – crime reduction. Mayoral candidate Linda Hepner introduced her team and told the crowd “Surrey is at a crossroads” and voters must cast their ballots wisely. EVAN SEAL

Rasode rolls out her team; McCallum unveils platform ▼ NEW FACES JOIN THE CIVIC RACE, WHILE SAFE SURREY COALITION WANTS A RETURN TO FISCAL RESPONSIBILITY KEVIN DIAKIW

Surrey mayoral candidate Barinder Rasode has announced her team for this fall’s election. They include Maz Artang, Narima Dela Cruz, Merv Bayda and Darlene Bowyer. Sources also say that her team will also include Cloverdale Chamber President Brian Young and agricultural issue champion Mike Bose. The Leader spoke with both on Tuesday, but they said they could not comment on a run with Rasode until Wednesday at 4:30 p.m., after The Leader’s print deadline. Artang, a business professional, who is general manager of ▶ “This plan Brown’s Socialhouse in Sunshine Hills, brings youth to Rasode’s puts the taxpayer team. first... by having He was one of the people endorsing her at her announcegreater respect ment that she was running for mayor last month. for taxpayer Badya describes himself on dollars.” LinkedIn as the only candidate DOUG MCCALLUM who has spent his life working

in public safety. He worked for the Mounties since 1978, as investigator, research analyst, officer in charge of field training, and from 2001 to 2005, he was working with community policing. Dela Cruz is a realtor with Magsen Realty and Strata Management Inc. and says she has interests in housing, government policies and transportation. She describes herself as parent advocate for her children. Her son, Daryl Dela Cruz, 18, is a transportation enthusiast, who has often made headlines pushing for transit change in Surrey. Bowyer is the former president of the Port Kells Community Association and has sat on the city’s Heritage Advisory Committee. She has pushed for change in several areas, including the number of drug houses in Surrey and the level of clear-cutting for development that has occurred. Several calls to Rasode on Tuesday went unreturned. Rasode is running for centre chair against former mayor Doug McCallum, Coun. Linda Hepner, health professional John Edwards, Surrey businessman Vikram Bajwa, and John Wolanski, who just filed his nomination papers Thursday. On Tuesday, McCallum unveiled the platform for his Safe Surrey Coalition, which he called “fiscally responsible simple government.” The coalition said it was responding to calls from Surrey residents that they want good service for their tax dollars. “Years of out-of-control spending, waste and involvement in speculative business ventures have moved the city away from meeting the needs of Surrey residents,” McCallum said in a news release Tuesday.

▶ SECOND REPORT OUT IN 2017 from page 1

While police and crime prevention organizations are doing their jobs, more police and action on the line between mental health and crime are needed, the report said. Housing also needs improvement, according to Vital Signs. A large percentage of renters in illegal suites and a rising demand for social housing were areas of concern. Transportation was another key area where Surrey was found lacking, as the report noted there are limited transit options within the city and “affordable and fair” bridge tolls and improved SkyTrain and bus service are needed. SurreyCares is an initiative of the Surrey Foundation which aims to help the community create a

sustainable and healthy future. A second Vital Signs report is slated for 2017.

“This plan puts the taxpayer first, both in terms of allowing the city to address pressing issues and priorities, and by having greater respect for taxpayer dollars.” McCallum said he’s going to freeze property taxes for two years if elected mayor, while cutting the city’s operating budget by three per cent. The eight Safe Surrey Coalition proposals are: 1. Freeze taxes for two years; 2. Reverse growing debt through an aggressive repayment plan; 3. Shut down the Surrey City Development Corporation;

A change in philosophy and subsequent direction is an immediate step that must be taken to put Surrey back on track, added McCallum. It was under McCallum’s previous leadership that there was a nine-year freeze on property taxes. But many critics have said that hold on tax increases resulted in a shortage of services in the city.

THIS WEEK’S QUESTION: Do you think Surrey’s quality of life deserves more than a C grade average? To answer, go to the home page of our website at surreyleader.com

Last week we asked: Do you think a ‘no call is too small’ approach to policing would better serve Surrey? Here’s how you responded:

Yes 72% No 28%

Barely making the grade Surrey’s health as a community isn’t very good, according to a “Vital Signs” report issued Tuesday by SurreyCares, the brand name of the Surrey Foundation, in partnership with Surrey Board of Trade. The foundation has been in existence for more than 20 years and exists to help fund ongoing community projects in Surrey. Run by a board of directors with strong business and communication backgrounds, it would be safe to say that it is a strong believer in Surrey and its future. The same can be said for the board of trade. The report includes the results of a public opinion survey, where residents assigned grades in 11 areas that measure quality of life. Overall, the community scored C, or “average,” on its first report card. Residents did not rate the city higher than C in any of the categories, while four were rated D+. That grade mean that “additional work is required.” Note that the work is not “optional,” it is “required.” Perhaps of the most interest is that safety rated only a D+, as did getting around, housing and standard of living. In other words, those surveyed have little confidence in their

own safety, or their ability to get around the city, either by car or public transit. They also have concerns about housing and the standard of living that many Surrey residents actually enjoy. For a city of this size, which has invested hundreds of millions in hiring new police officers and building new roads, the D+ grade on safety is shocking and deeply disturbing. In the area of arts and culture, environment, health and well-being, belonging and leadership, learning, getting started and economy and work, the grades were slightly better, at C. Considering the efforts the city has made to preserve the environment, albeit in fits and starts at times, it appears the citizens are far from convinced. Safety issues will not be solved by simply hiring more police officers. There needs to be a major rethink as to how the city can help citizens to feel safe. Some of the safety issues cannot be solved by the city, but require major changes of approach in Ottawa and Victoria. These involve issues like halfway houses, how to

deal with people with mental illness and housing. In terms on getting around, Surrey has expanded many of its major roads, built new bridges and pedestrian and rail overpasses, and is the single biggest beneficiary of the expanded Highway 1, new Port Mann Bridge and new Highway 17. Nonetheless, the Highway 1 improvements come at a personal price to drivers, in the form of a toll. That may have an impact on the low rating of getting around. However, the transit service in Surrey has not come closer to keeping up with development and population growth. There has been a lot of effort to paint Surrey up in the past decade. Parks and recreation facilities have opened, a new city hall has been built and there has been a push to develop Whalley into the city centre. These efforts are important, but the Vital Signs report shows that Surrey has a long way to go. Given the events of the past two years, and particularly the recent murder of Serena Vermeersch which has galvanized the city, it is going to be a steep uphill climb.

QUITE FRANKLY ▼ Frank Bucholtz

Good policing is about relationships CHIEF CHATS ▼ Jim Cessford

In past editorials I have written about the importance of planning. A big part of our strategy at Delta Police is leveraging resources from our partners; whether it is partnering with the RCMP Emergency Response Team or with Fraser Health in our approach to dealing with the mentally ill. We are always looking to improve how we do our job by creating efficiencies or drawing from subject matter experts. It goes without saying (but I will anyways), that the most important partnership is with the public we serve. In Delta this past spring, we relied heavily on public input when we developed our 2014-2018 strategic plan. It is important that we understand the public’s perspective on crime and

safety and listen to what really matters to people. We do so not only through a formal planning process but through day to day contact with citizens. We must always listen and react to public input and concerns. It is our duty to meet demands – particularly those of the public – and to do that with any degree of efficiency we have to be strategic by entering into various partnerships. At Delta Police, our partnerships cover a broad range of services, from K9 to Forensic Identification and from the Real Time Intelligence Centre to the Unsolved Homicide Unit. By entering into these relationships and contributing resources to the complex activities that require specialized training and intense capital invest-

ment, we are able to focus on our community-based policing strategies. It is because of these partnerships that Delta Police can respond to every call and spend time on proactive and problem solving strategies. I say it often because it is worth repeating; we have to sweat the small stuff because it is the small issues that become our big problems. It is the role of a community-focused police department to deal effectively with what is considered to be “low-level” crime. Without that ability, low-level crime evolves into more serious crime. The famous Broken Windows Theory proved that minor offences are indica-

tors for more serious crime. When New York City was ranked as having one of the highest homicide rates in North America, the police cracked down on crime such as graffiti and fare evasion. The results were remarkable; the city evolved from being one of the most violent in North America, to one of the safest. There was no crackdown on homicides; instead there was an investment into community-based policing. Thanks to the integrated policing model in the Metro Vancouver region, Delta is able to continue to invest the same way. Jim Cessford is chief of the Delta Police Department and has spent more than 40 years in law enforcement.

▼ ACCESS TO BETTER EDUCATION SHOULD MATCH THE CITY’S RAPID GROWTH

Leader columnist Frank Bucholtz wrote in his Oct. 2 column that, “There has been a long series of tragic incidents in this city. At some point in time, we as a community need to ask ourselves why.” He went on to say, “Surrey is filled with mostly peaceable people who have come here from all over the world… Most Surrey residents want better lives for their families and work hard to try and make that happen.” One of the ways that people try to make those better lives happen is by getting a good education. But, along with the inadequate levels of policing, Surrey’s also been shortchanged in other significant areas – in transit, health care facilities, school district programs and college and university programs. In particular, the healthy growth of our city has been held back by the continual shortchanging of our regional university, Kwantlen Polytechnic. KPU has never been able to provide the level of access to further education that B.C.’s other regional colleges and universities have been able to. It has never received much more than half the funding, per resident in our region, that the other college regions get. Although 21 per cent of B.C.’s population lives in Kwantlen’s region, KPU gets only 11 percent of the funding. If KPU were funded at equitable levels, it would have room for 7,000 more students – more of our residents would have good jobs and our region’s employers wouldn’t have to search elsewhere for qualified employees. A related problem is the inadequate amount of upper-level English language training (ELT) offered in our region. Over 300,000 immigrants live in our south Fraser region – including 30 per cent of B.C.’s recent immigrants – and for almost all recent immigrants, English is not their mother tongue. Up until 2013, KPU was only getting one-quarter of the funding for ELT that the rest of B.C. got, relative to the number of people who needed it. Then the provincial government, in violation of its own University Act regulations, eliminated all funding for ELT programs at Kwantlen and B.C.’s other colleges and universities. Now KPU can only offer English language training for residents if it’s paid for by profits from international students’ tuition – and that’s not nearly enough to offer even the limited amount of ELT that KPU offered before these absurd cuts. So it’s up to all of us to press the provincial government to correct this long-standing inequity in post-secondary funding in Surrey. I hope the candidates in the upcoming civic election will tell us what they plan to do to make sure the provincial government lives up to its “Skills for Jobs” rhetoric and ensures that people in Surrey have as much access to the higher education and training that they need as people elsewhere in B.C. Geoff Dean Surrey

A wish list for Surrey ▶ WILL POLITICAL LEADERS MAKE ANY OF THEM HAPPEN? Now that the civic election is around the corner, here is my Top 10 wish list of everything I dream of having for my home town of Surrey. Let’s see if our political leaders can actually work with all levels of government to make it happen. • Public transportation. I would like all the town centres of Surrey such as Whalley, Guildford, Newton, Fleetwood, Cloverdale and South Surrey – as well as Strawberry Hill, Langley and White Rock – to be connected with light rail or SkyTrain. • Poverty elimination. I would like to see any resident of Surrey who falls in the bottom 25 per cent of income earners to receive an automatic monthly financial top-up. • Crime reduction. I would like to see a 1,000-person strong community police force to patrol the streets. This would be a volunteer reserve force. • Pedestrian park routes. I would like to see Surrey connected with pedestrian park routes which would be nature trails, bicycle routes and walking paths in an extensive network throughout the city. • Outdoor swimming pool. I would like to see a world-class outdoor and indoor lap pool and recreation centre built to replace and relocate the North Surrey Recreation Centre. • Street beautification. I would like to see streets lined with beautiful trees, well-main-

I would like to reduce the voting age to 16 to give youth more of a voice at city hall. • Supporting new arrivals. I would like to see a short-term housing and resource centre built for new arrivals, including immigrants to help them successfully transition to our city. • Universal hot lunch program. I would send cafeteria chefs from the Surrey School

District to France to learn how that country provides fresh, daily, nutritious meals to all of its school kids. • Seniors’ visitation and mentorship program. I would have the city to develop a new program where volunteers would go and visit seniors in the community to ensure they are managing well. There you go. Let’s see if any visionary leaders can make it happen.

Alex Sangha, Surrey

Former mayor a spent force Red giants are stars that have exhausted the supply of hydrogen fuel in their cores. Surrey mayoral candidate Doug McCallum reminds me of that – a spent force. He has seized on the crime and policing issue to gain attention. He proposes to hire more police. It all costs money. I do remember when he was the mayor, he was keen on keeping taxes low – keeping them artificially low. He would put a freeze on them. The fact is we paid for that later under

Mayor Dianne Watts’ regime. Also I remember the tiff he had with Surrey RCMP when he wanted to suppress bad news about Surrey. I say no thanks. Then there is Coun. Linda Hepner. Her platform is more of the same. She has no vision. I have personal experience with her in the parks department capacity. I found her to be most bureaucratic. Patrons of the North Surrey Recreation Centre started experiencing problems with the new

parking regulations when city hall was moved there. Some of patrons’ letters were sent to her asking for help. She never even acknowledged receipt of any. I think Surrey deserves a new start and a new vision. That brings me to Barinder Rasode. She has demonstrated a penchant for dissecting issues when problems arise. I remember after hockey mom Julie Paskall’s murder she pinpointed the problem for the public, but the rest of council

ganged up on her because she didn’t keep it under wraps. She has shown a fresh approach and her own vision for the city. I support that. One point to consider for all: The city’s growth under McCallum and Watts was unbridled. Former Mayor Bob Bose used to lament about it. I believe a fresh look is needed and the unchecked paving of land slowed.

▼ POLICE SHOULD GO HIGH-TECH

▼ DELTA SCHOOL TRUSTEE WON’T RETURN

It appears most of those running for the mayor’s office in Surrey want to hire more police officers to fight crime. There is no doubt that this makes good politics. Will it solve the problem? Other areas have tried this solution only to find that the hiring of additional police officers has not resulted in any significant reduction in crime. We are living in the age of high technology. Police officers actually used to walk the beat. Those days are gone. Most police officers stay in their patrol cars unless they are at the scene of a police incident, the scene of a crime, or a crime in progress. Other times, they are in their office catching up on paperwork. Why not use our technology to its fullest extent by making our present police more effective in doing their job of fighting crime? In Britain, there is a security camera on every corner.

With great regret, I will not put my name forward as a candidate for trustee on the Delta Board of Education – a position I have held proudly since 2005. During that time I can report that the district has been exceptionally well run by our professional staff and there has been so much to celebrate in the performance of our students. It has been my great privilege to be part a system where, on all levels, people work so well together. Unfortunately the same cannot be said of the performance of our provincial government with respect to public education. My nine years have seen continual squeezing of our funding, downloading of costs and denial of responsibility for cuts by government. So, after nine years with my warmest best wishes to the next Delta Board of Education, I am passing the torch. May you continue to do the best you can on behalf of Delta students.

distracted driving tickets in a year add up to at least $634. At nine points, the Superintendent of Motor Vehicles considers licence suspension. Anton said there were 51,000 tickets issued last year for distracted driving of all kinds. “Ticket volumes show us that more drivers are ticketed for talking on an electronic device than for texting and driving, and so that is where we decided to start with the new penalty points,” Anton said. Distracted driving is the second biggest cause of fatal vehicle accidents, with an average 88 people killed per year from 2009 to 2013. That compares to 105 deaths attributed to speeding and 86 due to alcohol or drug impairment. Police can also issue tickets for driving without due care and attention to any driver who is noticeably distracted or inattentive and increasing risk to others.

‘Treasures’ of the city displayed ▶ SURREY HONOURS ARTISTIC TRIO ALEX BROWNE

Three new recipients of the Surrey Civic Treasures Award were named at the annual Business and the Arts reception Tuesday (Oct. 7) at Surrey Arts Centre. South Surrey potter and ceramics teacher Don Hutchinson, fabric artist, dancer/mentor and educator Elizabeth Carefoot and former Surrey Arts Council director and president Eileen Gratland were selected as this year’s medal winners. Now in their seventh year, the awards honour those who have made a significant contribution to culture within the city. Hutchinson spent 30 years at Langara College as a ceramics teacher and is past-president of the Potters Guild of B.C. His ceramics works reflect his interest in ancient cultures such as Turkey, Crete, Sicily, Japan and Korea but also Elizabeth show his concern with the SurCarefoot rey landscape through the use of locally-sourced materials (a study he conducted on using B.C. raw minerals for glazes led to a publication that is used by ceramic artists across Canada). Carefoot, who has created in fibre, pottery, oils, latex and watercolour as well as fabric is often inspired by history, ancient religions and the rich diversity of cultures around Eileen Gratland the world. She, in turn, has inspired many others in the city both with her colourful art and workshops and with her love of ethnic dance forms. Five childhood years experiencing the privations of an internment camp near Shanghai (she and her family were prisoners of the Japanese during World War II) fostered a passion for creating from very modest material resources and thriftily using scraps, and other flotsam and jetsam, in her work. Don Gratland, who spent 30 Hutchinson years with the Surrey Arts Council, has long been a champion of the arts as an essential component of social and economic growth. Among her accomplishments have been creating the Surrey Art Gallery’s annual juried art competition, the Greater Vancouver Golf Open juried art competition and exhibition, and the Let Me Sing community theatre project to raise funds to establish a Youth Arts Council. She has also spearheaded the arts council’s involvement in such events as the Cloverdale Blueberry Festival, Whalley Days, the Parade of Light and the Cloverdale Rodeo.

It was last expanded in 1998 to handle a population of one million, but the new expansion will allow it to serve another 250,000 residents in its catchment area. Metroâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s board in September awarded a $47.3-million contract to JJM Construction Ltd./ Geopac Inc. for the first year of work to prepare the ground and relocate utilities. It was the lowest of five bidders with proposals ranging from $53.8 to $60.9 million. A lower final price was negotiated after some project elements were removed. The ground improvement work includes the installation of 9,000 stone columns to help provide seismic protection during a major earthquake. The Annacis expansion is to be built in two phases, with the first phase to be finished in 2018 and the second stage in 2022. The project should not drive up taxes for existing Metro residents, said board chair Greg Moore, because it is being funded through development fees on new construction.

Hit-and-run goes badly for teen driver ▶ GOOD SAMARITANS GIVE CHASE ON FOOT, RETURN SUSPECT TO THE SCENE

Firefighters work to extricate a victim at a crash scene in Surrey Monday where a teen driver fled.

KEVIN DIAKIW

Eric Gatey, 20, was chopping wood in the front of his parents’ Guildford home on Monday around noon when he heard the loud screech and crash. He and his bud Casey Le ran out to see if everything was all right. Just as they did, someone came running from the accident, shoulder-checked Le, and kept running. Someone from the accident scene yelled, “It’s a hit-and-run, it’s a hit-and-run,” Gatey remembers hearing.

EVAN SEAL

Gatey and Le ran and cut off the fleeing 16-year-old male, and they were joined by two neighbours. The teen put up a scrap when they grabbed him, yelling “f*%*ing let go of me.” However, the group of four Good Samaritans took the teen back to the accident. He was surrounded

by onlookers when he went into his car, grabbed a bag of cash, and passed it to a woman in the crowd. Witnesses say he asked for her number so he could get the cash back later. The teen then grabbed a bag of marijuana from his car, witnesses say, and threw the bag – covered in blood – over

a fence. Police arrived and the woman who took the money gave it to RCMP saying she only held on to it so he wouldn’t run away again. The series of events started at about noon Monday as the teen was heading westbound on 88 Avenue at 140 Street in a 2004 Toyota Camry, when a collision occurred between his car and a 1993 Buick going north on 140 Street. The injured teen got out and fled, leaving an 85-year-old man trapped in the Buick. The senior had to be extracted from the vehicle and was taken to hospital with non-life threatening injuries. Police said Tuesday they had recovered a bag with several thousand dollars in it, another bag with a small amount of marijuana, drug paraphernalia and five cellphones in the teen’s possession. He was taken hospital, treated for minor injuries and brought back to police lockup. He has since been released, but is likely facing several driving-related charges, along with drug-related offences. Gatey said he’s still amazed at the events that took place outside his home Monday. “Definitely only happens in Surrey,” Gatey said. Police don’t recommend confronting people who may be involved in a crime, preferring instead to having witnesses observe and report. Surrey RCMP Cpl. Bert Paquet said it’s fortunate no one was seriously hurt in the accident. The two Samaritans were key, Paquet said, in bringing the person who fled to justice.

From robbery to murder: Crown ▶ RUSSEL BIDESI PLEADS NOT GUILTY TO SECOND-DEGREE MURDER IN THE 2012 SHOOTING OF KACEY ROGERS SHEILA REYNOLDS

Kacey Rogers was at home in Surrey with his girlfriend on the evening of Feb. 26, 2012 when he heard loud noises outside. He ran from his bedroom and looked out the kitchen window, and that’s when the 31-year-old was shot in the head and killed. That was theory put forth by Crown prosecutors on the first day of the trial of accused killer Russell Atma Bidesi. The trial began Monday in B.C. Supreme Court in New Westminster, where Bidesi is facing a second-degree murder charge in connection to Rogers’ death. Bidesi, 24, a darkskinned man with a moustache, short black hair and wearing red prison garb, pleaded not guilty. The Crown contends Bidesi and two other men, Fabien Lyde and Joshua Martinez, went to Rogers’ duplex on Grosvenor Road near 140 Street intending to commit a home invasion and robbery. It’s alleged Bidesi fired four shotgun rounds into the main front doorway, at

which time Rogers appeared at the front kitchen window to see what was going on. He was immediately shot. The trio of assailants, each carrying a firearm, then entered the home, the Crown claims, confronted Rogers’ girlfriend and demanded to know where money was. They took the cash and fled. Prosecutors say they intend to show Bidesi was the perpetrator armed with the pump-action shotgun that killed Rogers. There was no mention of a possible motive in court Monday. Evidence seized from Martinez’s apartment in New Westminster, including sawed-off shot guns, a handgun, several pairs of black gloves, and black “neck

A Surrey doctor has been temporarily suspended after admitting to going out on a date with a patient. Dr. Danilo R. Vargas was disciplined by the College of Physicians and Surgeons of B.C. for taking a patient for dinner and making sexual comments during that dinner. Vargas, a otolaryngology specialist (ear, nose and throat), admitted to violating professional boundaries. He is currently serving a three-month suspension that began Oct. 1, but two months could be cut if he follows conditions specified by the college that include ethics and boundaries training.

A trial date has been set for the three men accused of the murder of former Red Scorpions gang leader Jonathan Bacon and the attempted murder of four others. Jujhar Khun-Khun of Surrey, Michael Kerry Hunter Jones of Gibsons and Jason Thomas McBride of North Vancouver appeared in court in Kelowna and Monday, when the date for their jury trial was scheduled for April 4, 2016. The three are each charged with one count of first-degree murder, four counts of attempted murder, and three counts of discharging a firearm with intent. The Combined Forces Special Enforce-

ment Unit announced in February 2013 that the three had been arrested following an 18-month investigation that was dubbed E-Nitrogen. Bacon, 30, of Abbotsford was in a Porsche Cayenne SUV with four other people when they were shot at on Aug. 14, 2011 outside the Delta Grand Okanagan Resort in Kelowna. The shooting killed Bacon and wounded Hells Angel Larry Amero, Independent Soldier James Riach, Lyndsey Black and Leah Hadden-Watts, who was left paralyzed. At the time, police said the “cascade of violence,” which continued after the Kelowna shooting, began with the fatal

shooting of gangster Gurmit Dhak in October 2010 in a parking lot at Burnaby’s Metrotown Shopping Centre. Last week, the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT) released figures showing that the number of murders related to organized crime has dropped 20 per cent from 2013 to 2014.

Forty-one per cent of their investigations were related to organized crime in the period from Jan. 1 to Sept. 30, 2013, according to IHIT. The agency stated that the figure has dropped to 21 per cent for the same period this year. IHIT has conducted 43 investigations from Jan. 1 to Oct. 3 of this year.

Transit The thrill of live horse racing contract on Thanksgiving weekend avoids midreferendum labour spat ▶ METRO BUS DRIVERS WANT TO FIGHT FOR ‘YES’ CAMPAIGN JEFF NAGEL

TransLink’s unionized bus drivers, maintenance workers and SeaBus staff have agreed to a one-year contract extension with Coast Mountain Bus Company. The 4,700 employees represented by Unifor locals 111 and 2200 must still ratify the deal, which gives them a 1.75-per-cent pay hike next April. The deal avoids the potential for labour conflict during an expected referendum next spring on new funding for transit expansion. Nathan Woods, president of the bus drivers’ local, said the unions want to work with mayors, TransLink officials and other “yes”

The Thanksgiving long weekend is the perfect occasion to spend some time at the track! Both Cloverdale’s Fraser Downs and Vancouver’s Hastings Racecourse are prepared for an exciting weekend of live horse racing. With $500,000 in stakes purses up for grabs, the weekend promises to be exhilarating! Starting on Friday, Fraser Downs Racetrack & Casino will host “Friday Night Live”, offering contests and drink features, as well as buffet dining in The Homestretch and a chance to meet the drivers starting at 6 p.m.

Learn to Wager Ambassadors will be onhand to assist those new to horse racing with information on understanding the program and the different types of wagers, as well as how to read the tote board. Admission to the enclosed and heated grandstand is free for all ages, though you must be 19 and over to make a wager. The racing begins at 7 p.m. Hastings Racecourse will play host on Sunday and Monday, with four big stakes races on the Monday program! Live entertainment and a special Thanksgiving lunch in Silks restaurant are just two of the special

features. Admission is free, and the first race will start at 1:50 p.m. each day. If you aren’t able to make it to the track, don’t worry! You can catch these races at your local Racebook location, where you can watch and make a wager on multiple races at multiple tracks. There are Racebook locations at Fraser Downs, Hastings Racecourse, River Rock Casino, Hard Rock Casino, Chances Maple Ridge, Starlight Casino, Derby Bar and Grill, and the Best Western Rainbow Country Inn in Chilliwack. Patrons must be 19 and older.

side coalitions to win the referendum and protracted, difficult contract talks may have undermined that goal. “We want to wipe that off the slate right now and not face that challenge as well as the transit referendum at the same time,” he said. Since the province has yet to tell mayors which new tax sources it would allow or how much TransLink can raise, it’s difficult to assess TransLink’s spending limits, Woods added. He said full buses are passing up riders at the curb and a failure to add more bus service will force more people into cars and result in declining ridership.

B.C. transportation plan steers OPEN HOUSE clear of ferry, toll complaints TUES. NOV. 4TH 6:00-8:30 PM

▶ MINISTER SEEKS PUBLIC INPUT AHEAD OF 10-YEAR PLAN’S RELEASE JEFF NAGEL

Transportation Minister Todd Stone is calling for public input to help guide a new 10-year provincial transportation plan he aims to unveil by the end of January. The public consultations for the plan – dubbed “B.C. On the Move” – include meetings across the province with communities and stakeholders, a Twitter town hall and a dedicated website at engage. gov.bc.ca/transportationplan. Stone said he expects local priorities coming forward may include calls for secondary road improvements, more highway passing lanes or four-lane sections, as well as enhancements to local transit or cycling routes. The ministry is accepting submissions until Dec. 12. Survey questions to the public released by the ministry emphasize highway improvements and ask nothing about coastal ferry service or fares – the main source of criticism for Stone in recent months. The ministry will instead rely on previous public consultations in 2011 by the B.C. Ferry Commissioner to guide the ferries portion of the new plan.

ancouver, BC, October 2nd—A single vehicle crash on Main Street near East 49th kills two of the passengers; October 3rd—A cyclist hits and kills a pedestrian crossing Stanley Park Drive near the Totem Poles; October 4th—A fiery collision between a Volkswagen Beetle and a truck on the Lions Gate bridge shuts down the bridge for at least two mid-day hours and snarls traffic throughout the North Shore and into the downtown core with reports of many hospitalized … October is off to a very bad start in terms of road carnage throughout the Lower Mainland. The number of traffic related fatalities for 2014 has now reached from five to eight. The three latest victims were all elderly: an 82-year-old man and a 74-yearold woman in the single vehicle crash, and a 71-year-old male pedestrian. 70 may be the ‘new 60’ in lots of ways but elderly people are more fragile and less resilient no matter how young at heart they appear to be. But beyond this there appear to be no other common factors. Investigators will check for all the usual contributing factors: drug or alcohol-impaired drivers, distracted drivers, drivers suffering acute medical conditions, speeding drivers, passengers not wearing seatbelts, vehicles with mechanical problems, adverse road

conditions…all the usual factors. Although it is unlikely we will ever learn the final conclusions regarding causation, almost certainly, one way or another, these deaths could have been avoided. Bad runs of traffic crashes happen from time to time and there are many motivators for trying to make some sense of them. Most obvious is the need to find the cause and avoid repetition. Our road traffic system is so intertwined with our lives that we take it for granted. We enjoy the benefits it provides of easy and fast connectivity. In all of human history there has never been a time when more people have been able to ‘go places’, ‘get around’, ‘travel’ near and far more easily, more quickly, cheaply and indeed safely— or at least without incident for long intervals. We may be lulled into complacency. We let down our guard. But then, suddenly, whether on our own account or through the media, there it is again, the reminder—a small event or a catastrophe — that embedded in this marvelous system is the ever-present potential for risk to materialize. Its not a perfect world, by any means. To quell our fears and do our best to stay safe and prevent ‘bad runs’ we have devised many responses, but in the main, we keep statistics. Such records allow us to find what patterns, if any, exist and to learn what counter-measures work best. Accurate and timely tabulation of statistics relating to road safety is a proven key component of the interpretative process— of trying to make sense of bad runs, of trying to understand what happened so that we can avoid it in the future. Identify a repeating problem, and solve it. …by Cedric Hughes, Barrister & Solicitor with regular weekly contributions from Leslie McGuffin, LL.B.

Province pledges to control e-cigarettes like regular smokes ▶ ‘VAPING’ NOW DODGES SMOKING BANS, SALE LIMITS JEFF NAGEL

Health Minister Terry Lake says the province is prepared to regulate electronic cigarettes so their use is governed by the same provincial restrictions as tobacco smoking. He was responding to a resolution adopted last month at the Union of B.C. Municipalities convention urging government action. The growing trend of “vaping” with e-cigarettes instead of smoking has raised questions over product safety and concerns

that years of anti-smoking gains could unravel if nicotine addiction rebounds. Lake said he’d prefer the federal government regulate the battery-powered vaporizers instead, but added the province will act within a year if Ottawa does not. The goal, he said, would be to ensure e-cigarettes face most of the same bans or

restrictions that apply on regular ones under B.C.’s Tobacco Control Act, particularly the ban on sale of tobacco to minors and the rules on advertising and display. Lake wouldn’t yet say if the provincial ban on smoking in public buildings and workplaces, or within three metres of their doors and open windows, would also apply to vaping, but he noted cities can also pass their own bylaws to restrict use of e-cigarettes. Provincial law also bans smoking on all school grounds and in vehicles carrying youth under 16.

The City of Vancouver is considering extending its smoking bylaw to e-cigarettes and adding the word “vaporizing” to its no-smoking signs. Lake is expected to continue to press for a national solution this week at a conference of provincial health ministers and federal officials. Fraser Health Authority medical health officer Helena Swinkels supports strong regulation by both the province and municipalities. “I am very concerned about e-cigarettes and their uptake among youth,” she said. “I am concerned whether they actually help people to stop smoking or prolong people’s use.” The B.C. Healthy Living Alliance argues the use of e-cigarettes to defy public smoking bans undermines a key deterrent to tobacco use. Swinkels agreed the potential “social renormalization” of the act of smoking is a concern in part because users can vape in places where they’re banned from smoking. She said the jury is out as to whether e-cigarettes are effective and safe smoking cessation aids, noting they are regulated as consumer products and have not undergone the approval process required for a medication. “There’s some evidence that people using these may end up smoking more,” Swinkels said. “There’s little oversight of what goes into them and we know some of the ingredients are respiratory irritants.” Nicotine isn’t authorized for sale in the flavoured “juice” for e-cigs, but it is readily available.

Taxi ‘turmoil’ ahead as Uber eyes Vancouver market ▶ SERVICE STANDARDS A CONCERN IF RIDE-SHARE GIANT ARRIVES IN B.C. JEFF NAGEL

A renewed drive by U.S.-based ride-sharing service Uber to enter the B.C. market is fanning fears that the tech firm may disrupt the taxi industry and leave spotty service in its wake. Uber is advertising for drivers in the Vancouver area and its arrival would crack open a highly regulated cab industry, potentially bringing lower prices and more taxi availability for passengers. Instead of flagging Uber cars down, users connect with drivers of private cars through the company’s smartphone app. The firm also uses methods like variable pricing – fares can double or triple in rainy weather or at peak times to attract enough drivers to match demand. Vancouver Coun. Geoff Meggs expects a period of “real turmoil” ahead for taxi operators – San Francisco cabbies saw their revenues plunge 40 per cent after Uber launched. ▶ “It makes “That’s devastating and it makes it very, very it very, very difficult for the existing difficult for industry to survive, never mind support specialized the existing services like accessible industry to taxis,” Meggs said. Most Metro Vancouver survive.” cab firms have invested JEFF MEGGS heavily to convert to electric hybrids and Meggs said it’s unclear whether Uber’s arrival would mean backsliding on emissions. He met Uber reps earlier in September – they are to address Vancouver council Wednesday – and Meggs believes they will operate not just in Vancouver but in other Lower Mainland suburbs, with or without regulatory approval. “I don’t have any sense they’re going to restrict their operations to the City of Vancouver,” Meggs said, adding taxi firms in other communities may be even more vulnerable to Uber because their markets are smaller. Uber tried in 2012 to enter Vancouver but backed out after B.C.’s Passenger Transportation Board said it could operate only as a limousine service charging a minimum $75 a ride. The company has argued elsewhere it’s a technology firm not a taxi company and therefore need not have vehicles or drivers licensed as taxis. Vancouver council is expected to freeze the issuance of any new taxi licences for the next six months while it studies evolving issues in the taxi industry, including demand for new ride-sharing technologies. At least one taxi firm has already warned its drivers they’ll be fired if they sign up with Uber. But B.C. Taxi Association president Mohan Kang downplays the chances Uber will actually get rolling here. “The government is not going to allow illegal operations,” he predicted. Kang said it’s unclear whether Uber drivers would be adequately insured and subject to various regulations that apply to taxi drivers, including criminal record checks. Jane Dyson, executive director of Disability Alliance BC (formerly the B.C. Coalition for People with Disabilities) said she’s concerned Uber drivers won’t have training to work with people with disabilities as is required of Metro taxi drivers. She said Uber drivers also would not accept TransLink TaxiSaver coupons, which offer elderly or disabled HandyDart clients half-price taxi subsidies. Taxi firms are meanwhile preparing to launch their own booking apps.

the teen’s death. Bonnie Moy said she and others who knew Pamela Cameron placed flowers at the Forever Garden, located on the east side of the South Surrey arena. Cameron was 16 when she was grabbed off of 152 Street on Oct. 4, 1994 in broad daylight and killed in a vacant lot by a man who had been released from prison less than a year prior after serving two concurrent 10-year sentences for rape and robbery. Last month’s killing of Surrey teen Serena Vermeersch brought the memories sharply back into focus. The body of Vermeersch, 17, was found Sept. 16 in an overgrown area near train tracks in the 14600-block of 66 Avenue and a high-risk sex offender who was released from jail to live in Surrey last year has been charged in connection with her death. Moy said there were formal plans for Saturday’s tribute; it was simply to remember.

Friends and family gathered for a ceremony at The Forever Garden at South Surrey Athletic Park on Oct. 4, the 20th anniversary of the murder of South Surrey teen Pamela Cameron. From left are friend-of-the-family Valorie Lubeck, and Lisa Mandau with her sons Kai and Dax Searle, 14 and 12 respectively. BOAZ JOSEPH

KPU tops Camosun in preseason play

A second-quarter surge erased an early deficit and helped lift the KPU (Kwantlen Polytechnic University) Eagles women’s basketball team to a 65-54 victory over the Camosun College Chargers in a preseason game Saturday afternoon. Kwantlen trailed the PACWEST (Pacific Northwest Conference) clash 14-7 after one quarter, but rallied to tie the contest 29-29 by halftime. The Eagles went up 46-40 at three-quarter time and never looked back. Second-year point guard Samantha Kelleigh was KPU’s leading scorer with 20 points. Fifth-year centre Samantha McPhail added 13 points while second-year players Harjot Ladher and Shilpa Khanna, both of Surrey, scored eight each. “We shot the ball well and established a strong inside presence in the second half,” said KPU head coach Dan Nayebzadeh, “We have to make sure we bring consistency throughout the game and play for 40 minutes, but overall, I was pleased with our team effort.” KPU will be at the Capilano University Blues tournament this weekend in North Vancouver. The KPU men’s team took to the floor for their first of four preseason games, and faced a difficult test in Surrey Friday night. The Eagles tipped off against the University of Fraser Valley (UFV) Cascades at Tamanawis Secondary, falling 111-68. “We wanted to give UFV a good game and show that we could compete at this level,” said head coach Vladimir Nikic.

Shilpa Khanna of the KPU Eagles drives to the hoop during a PACWEST preseason game against the Camosun Chargers. KPU won 65-54. BOAZ JOSEPH We are a young team, but as long as we play together we are going to do great things.” KPU begins their PACWEST schedule at the end of the month, when the Cascades will be playing in Canadian Interuniversity Sports (CIS). Sharing the court with opposition from a higher level didn’t intimidate the Eagles. They were tied 28-28 after one quarter, but UFV surged ahead in the second period for a 62-45 lead at half-time. The Cascades built the lead to 30 points in the third quarter. Jaiten Rana, a first-year guard from Devliew Secondary, was KPU’s top scorer with 128 points, following by Panorama Ridge Secondary graduate Obi Udevi with 14.

Bright spots for the Eagles included the play of rookie guard Brendan Bailey and third-year point guard Spencer Maichin, also a Delview graduate. “We learned a lot from our game last week against our KPU alumni,” said Nikic. “I thought they improved tremendously, they played harder, and they learned fast. We see positive progress as they play for the team, not just on the team.” The Eagles are scheduled to host the Blue Angels club team tomorrow (Friday) night at the Surrey campus of KPU. After two road games in Washington state the following weekend, PACWEST play will begin Oct. 31 in Abbotsford against the Columbia Bible College Bearcats.

Crusaders fall one point short ▶ FRANK HURT EDGES HOLY CROSS IN SEASON OPENER RICK KUPCHUK

Two Surrey schools clashed in the opening game of the BC High School Football Association’s Senior AA season Saturday at Frank Hurt Secondary. The Holy Cross Crusaders fell 19-18 to the

Frank Hurt Hornets in a Southern Conference contest. “I’m disappointed that we lost a close one,” said Crusaders head coach Conrad Deugau. “The team played well but we as a team made some mental mistakes that hurt us.” Two young players were the leaders for Holy Cross. Paolo Lujan, a Grade 10 wide

receiver/defensive back, returned an interception 40 yards for one score and caught a touchdown pass from Patrick Shoemay. Shoemay, a Grade 11 quarterback, ran for the third Holy Cross touchdown. The Crusaders will host the Seaquam Seahawks in their second of four regular season games Saturday at 1:30 p.m. at

Holy Cross Secondary. The Seahawks dropped their first game, a 22-7 decision, at home to the Hugh Boyd Trojans. “We look forward to playing them,” said Deugau. “We’ve had a good rivalry the past few years often trading wins. “The teams are pretty evenly matched. It should be a good game.”

The Lord Tweedsmuir Panthers have their first regular season win. The Senior AAA high school football team knocked off the Rutland Voodoos 35-6 Friday afternoon at Lord Tweedsmuir Secondary, holding the Kelowna-area team scoreless until the fourth quarter. The Panthers are now 1-1 (won-lost) in the Eastern Conference of the BC High School Football Association. “Our defense played very well against Rutland not allowing a first down until the fourth quarter when we were up by 35 points,” said Tweedsmuir head coach Kurt Thornton. Caleb Abraham rushed for 160 yards and one touchdown for the Panthers,

with Colton Zayshley running for 107 yards and one major scored. Christian MacMillan threw touchdown passes of 25 yards to K.J. Johnson and four yards to Jeff Godard. Alex Bachmeier returned an interception 25 yards for the fifth Tweedsmuir touchdown. Abrham and Hayden Hamilton led the defense with nine tackles each. Hamilton also had a quarterback sack. The Panthers travel to Coquitlam to face the Centennial Centaurs tomorrow (Friday) night, and won’be be taking their 0-3 opponents lightly. “This week we face some really fast, talented athletes from Centennial and we will have to be very disciplined in our systems and limit turnovers to be successful,” said Thornton. “We are looking forward to the challenge.

Hawks at home for the first time ▶ MAJOR MIDGET HOCKEY TEAM TO HOST VANCOUVER CANADIANS RICK KUPCHUK

Week Four of the BC Hockey Major Midget League (MML) season will see the Valley West Hawks play at home for the first time. The team, comprised of players from the Surrey, Cloverdale, Semiahmoo and Langley minor hockey associations, will host the Vancouver Canadians at the Langley Events Centre at 3:30 p.m. Saturday. The two teams will play again at the Richmond Oval Sunday, where the Canadians have played four of their six games this season. Valley West began the season with a twogame trip to Prince George against the Cariboo Cougars, then played two “home” games at the Richmond Ice Centre against the Thompson Blazers as part of the MML’s Show Weekend.

Hawks coach Jessie Leung, who has guided the team to a 2-2-0 (won-lost-tied) start in his first season as the head coach, isn’t a fan of having a bye so early in the season, noting “we’ll have two games in hand on most teams throughout the front half of the season so it will feel like we’re playing catchup until we hit the midway point.” Valley West is in a four-way tie for sixthplace, and all five teams above them in the standings have played six games to just for four the Hawks. The Canadians, after four games in Richmond to start the season, were in Prince George last week. Playing as the visitors for the first time this season, they split a pair of 3-2 decisions with the Cariboo Cougars to improve to 4-2-0 on the season. After Saturday’s game in Langley, the Hawks and Canadians play a rematch Sunday morning at the Richmond Oval.

European-made high-quality laminate flooring is featured

NEW HOME DEVELOPMENT

Boffo’s Adagio is hitting a high note in South Surrey, with elegant kitchens, luxurious bathrooms and plenty of space for living, relaxing and entertaining. Homeowners will also have access to a stunning community courtyard, among other amenities.

Italian traditions at Boffo’s Adagio

By Kerry Vital

Boffo has been one of the top developers in the Lower Mainland for decades, and they are known for beautiful homes. They’ve brought their expertise to South Surrey with Adagio, a condominium project that has already been extremely popular with local purchasers. “Everyone who has moved in already has been absolutely thrilled by the amenities, the homes and the entire aesthetic,” says sales manager Sandra Miller. “Boffo has a long history of Italian traditions and attention to detail, and these homes are reflective of that.”

A beautifully landscaped community courtyard with trees, paths and garden plots is just one of the amazing things available for residents at Adagio. “Every aspect has been taken care of here,” says Miller. “The Boffo stamp is on this project. We’re very proud of it.” Inside, the one-bedroom and den, twoand three-bedroom homes feature nine-foot ceilings (12 feet on the top floor) and large windows that let the natural light pour in. Large terraces and patios add to your living space. The kitchen is an absolute highlight. Natural granite or quartz slab countertops are matched with a complementary backsplash, and the under-cabinet and recessed lighting beautifully illuminates your tasks. Stainlesssteel appliances, including a five-burner gas cooktop and a 36-inch counter-depth fridge, and 40-inch upper cabinets are perfectly situated, and large kitchen islands feature

a wine chiller and tons of space for food preparation or casual dining. Premium laminate flooring is featured throughout the main living areas, while the bedrooms include carpet made for sinking your toes into. The bathrooms are luxurious and soothing, with either an oversize shower with frameless glass enclosure or an oversize soaker tub/ shower combination. Bathrooms include a built-in wall niche, and ensuites have a radiant heated floor. The custom suspended under-lit vanity and natural granite or quartz countertops are complemented by a matching backsplash.

Most ensuites include a his-and-hers vanity for extra convenience. The community is one of the big draws for purchasers at Adagio. “The location is fantastic,” Miller says. “You can’t beat it.” Located in the Semiahmoo neighbourhood, residents at Adagio will find everything they can possibly imagine on their front doorstep. From dining at one of the delicious local restaurants to shopping at nearby Semiahmoo Shopping Centre, Morgan Crossing or Grandview Corners, nothing is out of reach. Leisure and recreation is also close by, with several parks, pools, arenas and clubs in the neighbourhood, as well as White Rock beach. If it’s a bit of culture you’re looking for, you’ll find an art gallery, theatre and museum just minutes away.

Finding the write stuff ▶ NEW AUTHORS AND BEST-SELLING LITERARY ICONS ALIKE GET INSPIRED AT THE SURREY INTERNATIONAL WRITERS’ CONFERENCE

Outlander Series author Diana Gabaldon talked about the prejudice towards thick books during her workshop ‘How to Make Them Turn the Page’ at the 2013 Surrey International Writers’ Conference. Gabaldon is taking part again this year. BOAZ JOSEPH

KEVIN DIAKIW

On March 6, 1988, she wanted to know what it took to write a novel and whether she really wanted to do that “for real.” Diana Gabaldon began bashing away at Outlander, historical fiction about a Second World War combat nurse thrown back in time 200 years. Split between two loves in two different times, Claire Randall is in an impossible position. It was Gabaldon’s first book, but certainly not her last. Outlander was followed by seven more New York Times’ best-selling novels. She has just published the eighth epic novel in the Outlander series titled “Written in My Own Heart’s Blood,” which has reached the number-one spot on the New York Times’ best seller list for hardcover fiction. Her writing also serves as an inspiration to many, including those attending the Surrey International Writers’ Conference (SiWC), at which Gabaldon is a regular fixture. ▶ “Here I stand on the brink Even after 26 years of writing, Gabaldon is hard-pressed to describe her genre. of war again, a citizen of no She calls it “big, fat, historical fiction, à la James Clavell and James Michener.” place, no time, no country but Gabaldon is just one of a host of my own… a land lapped by presenters coming to the SiWC Oct. 24-26 – many of them inspired by no sea but blood, bordered Gabaldon’s work. only by the outlines of a face Laura Bradbury read Gabaldon’s Outlander in 2003 and was translong-loved.” formed by it. She joined the Compuserve literary QUOTED FROM DIANA GABALDON’S forum where Gabaldon often posts. ‘WRITTEN IN MY OWN HEART’S BLOOD’ Bradbury attended SiWC the following year. She has a degree in English literature and has read all of the greats, but she was completely enamoured with the plot offered in Outlander. It’s the story that transfixes the readers of Gabaldon’s books. “The Surrey writers’ conference is all about that, it’s all about storytelling,” Bradbury said. Bradbury always loved to write but hadn’t written a book for “fear of failure.” The conference got her writing, she said, but she couldn’t finish the books she started. In 2012, she was diagnosed with a rare liver disease. “My life changed from one minute to the next,” Bradbury said. “I went from a healthy, globe-trotting, writing mother of three, to looking my mortality very closely in the face.” With new resolve, she decided to finish the three books she started. She has already published her first book, a memoir, called “My Grape Escape” in November of last year. She self-published it using Kindle with the help of local social media guru Sean Cranberry. “The sales have been extraordinary. I’m a Canadian best seller already,” Bradbury said. My Grape Escape is at the number-one spot in Amazon France and holds the top 100 spot for Amazon memoirs. A sequel called “My Grape Village” is coming out before this year’s SiWC. Bradbury will be sharing her success story as a keynote speaker at the event that kindled her success. She will be talking about how life is short and writers who are thinking about it should get busy. “Creativity, and writing specifically, has been a lifeline for me,” she said. “The future is uncertain and you have to seize what you are. You are a writer. “You have to honour yourself, to write and to finish,” Bradbury said. The SiWC began in 1993 and was first held at Johnston Heights Secondary School with 100 attendees. It is now a packed annual event at the Sheraton Vancouver Guildford that attracts authors and speakers from around the globe. It runs Oct. 24-26. More information can be found at www.siwc.ca

Public art the theme at Surrey’s first PechaKucha ▶ FAST-PACED IDEA EXCHANGE COMES TO CENTRE STAGE AT CITY HALL OCT. 16 BLACK PRESS

Surrey Civic Theatres launches a PechaKucha Night series next week focussing on the theme of public art. Artists, architects, directors and coordinators will inform and entertain attendees with short, fast-paced presentations about local and international public art. The event takes place Oct. 16 at Centre Stage at Surrey City Hall (13450 104 Ave.) PechaKucha is an international movement that creates forums for the exchange of ideas relating primarily to the creative sector.

Sidekick brings all-Canadian plays to stage ▶ DELTA THEATRE COMPANY OPENS SEASON WITH THE SECRET MASK OCT. 9 Delta’s Sidekick Players Club is about to embark on its 18th season. The first play of the season, The Secret Mask, takes the stage beginning Oct. 9 and runs until Oct. 25. It’s the first of the four Canadian plays presented by the theatre company. “When I founded this group, I always wanted to include as many Canadian plays as possible,” said founder and president Carroll Lefebvre, “and I’m thrilled to finally be able to give our audiences a 100 per cent Canadian season.” The Secret Mask takes place in Vancouver and is about a man who has suffered a stroke and a son who tries to build a relationship with him. The speech therapist is the glue that keeps this relationship moving forward, even when they want to give up. Sidekick welcomes back to the stage Paul Fisher and Jeff Pannell in the lead roles. Catherine Sturney portrays speech therapist Mae. Shows take place at the Tsawwassen Arts Centre (1172 56 St.) Thursday to Saturday, 8 p.m., with two matinees Oct. 12 and 19.

Drive What you can’t see is the 317 kgs that the ‘15 F-series has lost, thanks to that aluminum body and the increased use of high-strength steel in the frame – but, you can certainly feel it while driving. The truck is nimbler, has less wash in the corners and simply handles better. The cab is virtually silent and for comfort, the HVAC is split side-toside, front and rear. The hood and side windows have dropped in profile for better visibility, while the size, colours and quality of the computer generated gauges and controls simplifies operation while driving. I towed with the new truck and its manners are good if not improved. In part, this is assisted by the long list of towing features like trailer sway control; tow/haul mode; Dynamic Hitch Assist, SelectShift transmission and better tow mirrors. Off-road an electronic manual rear

differential locker has been added. This truck churns mud better than ever. Verdict Payload is up (to 900 kgs) and so is towing (approx. 5.5 tonnes) yet overall body weight is down by 317 kgs. Ford offers four engines and even the smallest 2.7L EcoBoost will still tow up to 3.8 tonnes. The cab is quieter, yet larger. The floor is flat yet has more storage compartments. The dash is less cluttered yet offers more information. Do you sense a theme here? Consider that the design phase of this truck took four years and the testing was the most intense ever. The result? A list of improvements a hockey rink long – that’s a fact. Now, how will they all work together? Well Ford’s claims will have to play out on roads, across Canada, in the coming years. But from what I’ve seen in Texas, I’d say Giddy Up!

Question of the Week The all-new Ford F-150 graces the front of Driveway this week as it looks to maintain its constant premier position as the truck of choice. What do its rivals have to do to make a bigger mark in sales? Go to DrivewayCanada.ca to submit your answer. QUESTION

OF THE WEEK!

The big update is all about electronics. A new instrument cluster is larger and all the gauges are video projected.

With the distractions of technology, smartphones, television programming, life, video games and more, it can be tough to find an activity in which the whole family can participate let alone enjoy. Age differences between children, gender, and general interests can vary greatly. My brother and I couldn’t be more opposite. Rest assured, there is hope and some of it comes in the form of two wheels. Scott Ponuick, marketing and promotions manager at Popkum Motor Park, in Rosedale, raced snowmobiles and ATVs as a child. And he road raced for many years of his life. He also grew up around the racetrack as his father raced stock cars. You could say motor oil runs through his veins and that motor oil has since been passed to his family. He mentions: “Before we had kids, I bought Christine (his wife) a bike; a Honda XR 86,” since she showed interest in the sport. For all the time that Christine cheered on her husband, it was time for her to get in her own saddle. He fixed it up and it ran like new. She loved it. She explains: “It was fun watching him, but I’d rather be out there too!” Not too long after that, Christine became pregnant with their first child. “Before she (Taylor) was even born, we started talking about what bike we should get her and getting gear ready for her for when she was old enough,” Christine says. By the time Taylor was two years old she was on two wheels. With training wheels, of course. Then again, you could argue that she was on two wheels much before then because the only way she’d fall asleep as a baby was when her dad would ride her around the back yard in a harness. “She always wanted to get on the bike,” Christine recounts. “Taylor always wanted daddy to take her around.” Now that Taylor is six and her little brother, Chase, is

three, they both can ride their own bikes and have a blast doing it. At home, the kids are on Oset electric trials bikes. They don’t make any noise so they can play in the back yard until the batteries run out! There’s also a “throttle” modulator that makes sure the kids can’t get themselves into too much trouble. Scott and Christine consider themselves very lucky because everyone in the family loves to get out onto the trails, even if they aren’t moving very quickly! “It’s so cool to see Taylor and Chase progress,” says Scott. Even though Scott’s employment brings him to Popkum Motor Park weekly, he said that he’d still take the kids on dirt bikes regardless. “It’s such a great way to build motor skills, coordination, a love of the outdoors and you just create so many memories together.” He talks about the families who come out to the Park. Moms, dads, and kids alike take to the track. “There’s one family that comes to mind… I’ve watched the kids grow up over the last 12 years. For example, the dad and daughter will show up, and then they’ll turn laps together. And then they pull over and chat about their laps and the things they can work on.” Christine comments: “You value time together more when you’re all doing something that you all love. As a full-time working mom, I’m so grateful we have riding as a common bond.” Some might be concerned about safety when it comes to speed and kids. But like any other sport, with the proper equipment, training and supervision, dirt biking is quite safe. And did I mention fun? “I couldn’t think of a better way to spend the day,” Christine remarks.

Kia joins the growing list of electric vehicle (EV) manufacturers with Soul EV, a clever adaptation of its tall 5-door compact with the funky styling. Although still a small slice of the overall car market, EV sales are growing rapidly and so is the public charge station infrastructure that’s crucial to its success, especially in urban areas. A digital readout showed 187 km of driving range available as we headed out on a test loop around Metro Vancouver. And after about 30 minutes of, no special treatment, driving with frequent stops, starts, hill climbs and descents, the Soul EV showed 162 km was still available. That’s relevant, as the Soul EV’s officially rated driving range is 149 km. In addition to being quiet and fuel-free, Soul EV effectively matches the practical user features of its gasoline counterpart. It can seat 4 to 5 passengers and has the same large rear cargo area. Kia’s polymer (electrolyte) lithium ion battery pack is compact and easier to hide than others, as is can be molded into different shapes. In Soul EV it’s centrally fitted under the seats and a raised rear floor pan. The gasoline engine is replaced by a 109 horsepower liquid-cooled AC synchronous permanent magnet electric motor that

can generate a whopping 210 lb-ft of torque. That’s 59 lb-ft more than the 2.0-litre gasoline engine version of Soul. Standing starts were not as jumpy as other electric vehicles tend to be and the overall performance of the electric drivetrain was impressively smooth. Charger ports for the battery pack are hidden behind a hinged cover in the front grille. The smaller port accepts either a 120 volt (level 1) or a 240 volt (level2) charge connector. A portable level 1 unit is stored in the vehicle and Kia Canada will also provide Soul EV buyers with a level 2 charge unit (made by Bosch) for home installation, free of charge. The charger unit can also be used to pre-heat or pre-cool the Soul EV, while plugged into the grid. You can also program it to start or complete charging at a certain time. The level 1 charger plugs into any electrical outlet, but can take up to 24-hours to fully recharge the battery pack. A level 2 charger (with 30 amp service) cuts the maximum recharge time to under 5-hours. And a level 3 fast charge station can pump-in an 80 per cent charge in less than 30 minutes. We didn’t take it out on the freeway, but the Soul EV seemed very stable (it’s heavier then the gas engine Soul) and Kia claims a top speed of 145 km/hour. Kia continued on page 51

also claims that it can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/ hour faster (by 4 seconds) than a Nissan Leaf. It’s agile and peppy, with lots of initial get up and go, but it’s also no dragster. The two-tone gray interior theme came with attractive and contrasting blue stitching. Extensive use of bio-friendly interior materials also makes Soul EV the most eco-friendly vehicle made by Kia. It feature materials derived from organic substances such as sugar cane, corn, cellulose, and wood powder. The base edition of Soul EV is very well equipped and even comes with dual-zone climate control, voice-activated navigation and a rear view camera. A leather wrapped steering wheel is heated and also has both tilt and telescopic features. Moving up to EV Luxury adds features like leather (synthetic) upholstery, a heat pump (enhances the climate control system), cooled and ventilated front seats and heated rear seats. Soul EV is only available through selected Kia dealers in major Canadian urban centres (Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver). Unlike Quebec and Ontario, however, BC’s incentive program for eco-friendly vehicles ran out of cash back in March of this year. Soul EV does qualify for an $8,000 federal government rebate and that certainly helps make the purchase price more palatable. The Kia Soul EV definitely rocks and is a must-drive for anyone considering an EV in this price range.
