Lack of evidence cited by defence counsel on outstanding charges against Janet Olson

Guilty plea to 4 of 38 dog-theft charges Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

Janet Olson

A South Surrey woman who was to go to trial next month on dozens of dog-theft related charges will instead go straight to sentencing, after entering guilty pleas to a handful of charges last week in Surrey Provincial Court. Janet Olson, 60, appeared before Judge James Sutherland on Oct. 8.

“She entered some pleas and the matter was adjourned… till Jan. 2,” prosecutor Michelle Wray confirmed. Olson had been scheduled to be tried on the charges in B.C. Supreme Court starting next month. Twenty days had been set aside for the proceedings. Just one day has been reserved for sentencing submissions. Defence counsel Craig Sicotte said

Thursday the change of direction was rooted in a lack of hard evidence. “The bottom line is the Crown realized that they couldn’t prove all the rest of them,” Sicotte told Peace Arch News. “They were relying on what’s called similar-fact evidence… to prove it was her that did a bunch of the other ones.” Olson – who is a founder of A Better Life Dog Rescue – was one of two

women arrested in November 2011 in connection with the theft of a bulldog from a Coquitlam backyard. Olson told Black Press after her arrest that she had “a moral right” to take the dogs. She repeatedly told media that she took the bulldog, Samson, “because a bulldog expert advised me he was going to freeze to death.” i see page 4

Property owner says City of Surrey leaves him little choice

Couple evicted after decade in woods Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

A homeless couple who have made camp on private property in South Surrey for nearly 10 years have been given until Nov. 1 to clear out. Roy Mercer and Darlene Fox received the news on Sept. 23, delivered by a half-dozen RCMP officers and one City of Surrey bylaw officer, who explained they were acting on a complaint. “(They) came in here and told me I had to be out in 30 days,” Mercer, 56, told Peace Arch

News on Friday. “There’s something wrong here. Ask anybody around here if I’ve done them any wrong and they would say no.” Police and city officials both say the ‘eviction’ was triggered by a complaint; as well, that the property owner “doesn’t want them here anymore.” Jas Rehal, manager of bylaws and licensing in Surrey, said the issue is “between the owner and the individuals living there.”

“Ultimately, the owner has to address this,” Rehal said by email. Property owner Gary Crowder said he is reluctant to ask them to leave, but it is a step he knew would be taken eventually: the city is enforcing its rules. “I’ve known for several years that we are in violation of city bylaws,” Crowder told PAN. “If I were to let them stay there now… I’d be subject to legal action from the City of Surrey. i see page 2

A South Surrey veteran has been recognized by the French government for his contribution to freeing the country from Nazis during the Second World War. Retired chief warrant officer John Mitges, 93, was announced as the recipient of the French Legion of Honour last week, for his valiant efforts during the Battle of the Liberation of France. The French order was established by Napoleon Bonaparte in 1802. It is the highest decoration in France and is awarded for bravery and service. John Mitges The Royal then and now Canadian Engineers veteran sustained a number of injuries in France during the Second World War, and each time returned to carry on with his mission. i see page 4

RCMP Sgt. Jet Sunner talks to Roy Mercer about the need to move on after nearly 10 years.

Couple to seek new housing i from page 1 “It’s not me, it’s not my choice to tell them to leave, it’s just that the city has given me no other option.” Mercer and Fox have been homeless since 2002. They fled to South Surrey from Whalley because it felt safer, eventually finding their way to Crowder’s forested property, a site tucked between Highway 99 and 32 Avenue. Crowder said he learned from a neighbour that they were there, but “I didn’t have the heart to order them to leave.” Over the years, Mercer and Fox have found what they need in area dumpsters, recycle bins and even at the roadside; selling what they can and supplementing their less-thanluxurious existence with money earned collecting bottles. Their compound has grown from a single tent to include a makeshift cabin, storage shelters and piles of the various items they’ve collected along the way, much of it sorted and waiting for pickup. “Everything here’s been found within a couple-block radius,” Fox, 40, said. “It’s all getting recycled. Just a long, roundabout way of doing it.” The couple pride themselves on returning lost or stolen items they’ve found in

their forays; repairing cast-off items such as bicycles for donation to a local church; not collecting welfare; and on helping keep area businesses clean and free of crime. Those efforts have not gone unnoticed. “Roy’s been helping me out for 10 years,” said Phil Declerc, who owns nearby Suds City Carwash. “They keep the place spotless. They’re not thieves. They don’t live off society.” Friday, three RCMP officers and two outreach workers visited the couple, to offer “some options on where they can go.” “We’re trying to play by the rules here,” said Const. Christie Dixon. “I understand that this is their home.” Mercer said he was told they’d have to give up most of their belongings and it’s unlikely he and Fox could be housed together. While it is a civil matter at the moment, police say it could escalate if Nov. 1 comes and they receive a report that the couple are trespassing. Crowder said he is trying to remain optimistic. “I’ve been satisfied with the status quo,” he said. “I’d be happier if their campsite were tidier (but) that alone I don’t think would be enough to satisfy city hall.”

Mayors races heat up in Surrey, White Rock

Dozens nominated for two city councils Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

The race to run for office in White Rock and Surrey has officially closed, and more than a dozen hopefuls have thrown their hats into each city’s political ring. The only uncontested race is for White Rock’s seat on the Surrey school board. Longtime trustee Laurae McNally, the sole nominee, was to be acclaimed yesterday (Monday). While Surrey council and trustee nominees were still being tabulated at Peace Arch News’ early long-weekend deadline at 4 p.m. Friday – as nominations closed – White Rock’s candidates were set.

It’s a two-man run for White Rock’s mayor’s chair. Resident David Bradshaw submitted his nomination package on Thursday, in a quest to unseat incumbent Wayne Baldwin, who is wrapping up his first term in the chair. On the councillor side, 17 hopefuls are vying for six seats: Cliff Annable, Al Campbell, David Chesney, Helen Fathers, Doug Hart, Ross Haugland, Mike Hornak, Sheila Hunter-Tubic, Megan Knight, Bill Lawrence, Dennis Lypka, Grant Meyer, Pattie Petrala, Darcy Sangster, Lynne Sinclair, Cary van Zanten and Margaret Woods. Coun. Louise Hutchinson did not file papers by nomination deadline.

In Surrey, candidates who had filed nomination papers in Surrey before PAN press time included mayoral hopefuls Vikram Bajwa, John Edwards, Linda Hepner, Doug McCallum, Barinder Rasode, Grant Rice and John Wolanski. Running for the eight councillor seats are: Maz Artang, Saira Aujla, Merv Bayda, Tanvir Bhupal, Cliff Blair, Mike Bose, Darlene Bowyer, Obi Canuel, Narima Dela Cruz, Nav Dhanoya, Jas Dhillon, Fiona Dionne, Kal Dosanjh, Rita Elvins, Shawn Francis, Stephen Gammer, Touraj Ghanbar-zadeh, Rina Gill, Tom Gill, Laurie Guerra, Bruce Hayne, Gary Hoffman, Vera LeFranc, Brenda

Locke, Mary Martin, Jim McMurtry, Martin Rooney, Rick Scorcese, Beau Simpson, Mike Starchuk, Barbara Steele, Justin Thind, Judy Villeneuve, Dave Woods and Brian Young. Surrey School Board candidates for six trustee positions include: Terry Allen, Balraj Atwal, Rayman Bhuller, Charlene Dobie, Patricia Enair, Sikandar Hayat, Bob Holmes, Nicole Joliet, Laurie Larsen, Niovi Patskicakis, Kirsty Peterson, Bal Sabharwal, Sara Sharma, Jonathan Silveira, Julie Tapley, Garry Thind, Gary Tymoschuk and Shawn Wilson. Visit www.peacearchnews.com for the most recent updates. The election is to be held Saturday, Nov. 15.

Whale watch Well-known South Surrey artist Elizabeth Hollick works to restore White Rock’s Whaling Wall. The city had the Russell Avenue wall cleaned, and hired Hollick to touch up the iconic mural, to address water and other damage. The 60-by-30-foot mural has graced the wall for 30 years, painted by noted nature artist Wyland, who gave the city his blessing to have another artist work on it, provided the original image wasn’t altered in the process. Hollick expected to finish the task last Friday. Tracy Holmes photo

Clear relationship between anti-union groups and federal policy makers, say Saskatchewan academics

Lecture casts shadow on MP’s ‘transparency’ bill Alex Browne Staff Reporter

MP Russ Hiebert’s controversial private members’ bill calling for full public disclosure of union financial affairs has come in for a detailed and scathing analysis from two professors in the faculty of business administration at the University of Regina. In a public lecture delivered on campus last Wednesday, Sean Tucker and Andrew Stevens presented evidence they say shows the South Surrey-White Rock-Cloverdale MP’s bill – while touted as wishing to promote greater transparency – seems to be part of a less-thantransparent “anti-union policy agenda” on the part of the federal government. In the presentation, Working in the Shadows for Transparency: Russ Hiebert, LabourWatch, Nanos Research and the Making of Bill C-377, Tucker and Stevens argue that Hiebert’s amendment to the Income Tax Act shows a clear relationship “between the anti-union business lobby… and federal policy makers.” And they charge that a flawed poll claiming 83 per cent public support for full disclosure of union finances – and lax regulation in the polling industry itself – call into question the practice of polling to promote public policy.

“We find that the actions of groups and individuals associated with creating, disseminating and reviewing the influential 2011 Nanos Research-LabourWatch poll and promoting C-377, show contempt for the principle of transparency,” Tucker and Stevens write. Hiebert, first elected in 2004, was not available for comment by Peace Arch News’ press deadline on Friday. Last February, he announced he would not seek a fifth term. After receiving a rough ride in the Senate last year, including flak from Conservative senators who broke ranks with the government to claim the legislation is “unconstitutional,” Hiebert’s bill was returned to the House of Commons this year – a result of Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s prorogation (postponement) of Parliament deliberations in September 2013. It has since passed in the House and is currently at second reading before the Senate. Tucker maintained Thursday his focus on C-377 has not been politically motivated. It has been a “rabbit hole,” he said, that first opened when he was asked to contribute to a CBC open-line radio program on the bill three years ago. But Tucker said his examination of the

2011 Nanos poll, sponsored by was solely an initiative of the MP. LabourWatch, found that some “Evidence suggests that C-377 is questions had been “primed” to prothe product of two ideological antiduce responses, and that answers to union organizations: LabourWatch one question – which would have and Merit Canada,” he said. contradicted the poll findings – had “LabourWatch is an organization been left out. that polls Canadians on a regu“I did bring this to Mr. Hiebert’s lar basis, aiming at putting labour attention in 2011, but he never unions in a bad light – it’s a shotgun acknowledged my letter,” he said. approach in which they ask a whole MP Russ Hiebert This is not the first time the acabunch of questions to build up a demics’ work has raised questions case, and that political pressure has about the poll; their research was cited last to go somewhere. year by the Canadian Labour Congress in “The question is, do we want public policy a complaint to the Marketing Research and shaped by ideological lobby groups?” Intelligence Association.

Your FIRST CHOICE for AUTOMOTIVE REPAIRS in White Rock & South Surrey SINCE 1989!

34 charges expected to be stayed i from page 1 In the months following the arrests, a plethora of additional charges – to a total of 38 – were sworn against Olson, in connection with incidents between Nov. 14, 2009 and Dec. 21, 2011 in White Rock, Surrey, Richmond and Abbotsford. Sicotte said Olson pleaded guilty to breaking into a Chilliwack yard to try to steal a dog in March 2009; to theft, in connection with a July 2010 incident in Richmond; and to charges of break-and-enter and theft in connection with the bulldog stolen from Coquitlam in November 2011. Sicotte – who once described

the volume of material in Olson’s file as similar to that accumulated in murder cases – said he is not surprised by the turn of events. “All of us are relieved,” he said. Sicotte expects the remaining 34 charges – which include fraud, theft, break and enter and “possess break-in instrument” – will be stayed. Wray deferred further Crown comment to Neil MacKenzie, spokesman for the Criminal Justice Branch. MacKenzie told PAN Thursday that the guilty pleas were deemed appropriate “based on the currently available evidence and the circumstances of the case.”

He said Crown’s position with respect to an appropriate sentence will be put before the court in January. Sicotte would also not comment on what sentence he planned to argue for. In September 2012, Louise Reid – the Surrey woman who had been arrested with Olson in Coquitlam – received a conditional discharge, a year’s probation and an order to pay $2,500 restitution to the owner of one of the two dogs that she had pleaded guilty to stealing. Four other women arrested over the course of the investigation were diverted to an alternate-measures program.

Out of their depth

erhaps the BC Liberals should take a hint from their own problem-gambling ads. It seems that when it comes to a Liquid Natural Gas deal, they’re stuck in a high-stakes game with some world-class high-rollers – and playing with our housekeeping money. Last week the head of Petronas, Shamsul Azhar Abbas, showed decisively that the energy giant holds all the cards, by suggesting it could easily walk away from a proposed $11-billion LNG plant near Prince Rupert, shelving the project for as much as 15 years – a lifetime in political terms. He even threw down a deadline – B.C. has until the end of this month to dance to Petronas’s tune on tax and regulatory issues. Energy Minister Rich Coleman’s weak response was that B.C. will still get a deal that provides all the taxes it needs, and that the tough words were merely Petronas “indulging in a little bit of posturing.” Coleman should know. His government indulged in a great deal of LNG posturing during the last election, suggesting it would provide a windfall amounting to $1 trillion, one that would eradicate B.C.’s $6 billion debt, create 100,000 jobs and establish a $100 billion “prosperity fund.” Likely, it was promises of that ilk – coupled with the fumbling performance by the ill-prepared NDP and the short memory of the electorate – that saved the Liberals from the scrap heap during the last election. In her latest “throne speech,” however, BC Liberal Leader Christy Clark has conveniently forgotten all of those glib assurances. LNG shouldn’t be considered a windfall, she now says. We need it to fund our core services. Translation: we’ve already spent the money. Perhaps the worst part of the BC Liberals’ hubris in office is the delusion they’re in the same league as hard-nosed hardball experts like Petronas. In fact, they have acted like lightweights who scarcely understand the need to negotiate with their own citizens in good faith (if we are to believe two Supreme Court judgments that preceded the teachers strike) and whose bare-faced attempts to whitewash their own failures – like the notoriously mishandled firing of Ministry of Health public servants two years ago – have become obvious to all but their most partisan supporters. It would be foolish indeed to believe our leaders’ desperate reliance on LNG hasn’t been gleefully observed by skilled international negotiators looking for maximum leverage. And all we can do is stand by as another of B.C.’s resources is squandered in the name of positive spin.

issue is not of the utmost importance, and provide the necessary investment, both financial and time commitment, to reach satisfactory conclusions.” That’s the good news for B.C.’s thorniest historical problem, the lack of treaties across most of the province. It’s also becoming clearer that the Tsilhqot’in ruling is unique. It’s unlikely to be repeated by most other First Nations, even if they are willing and able to spend the years and millions to enrich lawyers in pursuit of it. Here’s the bad news. As of this year, the B.C. Treaty Commission has paid out $627 million to First Nations to support treaty negotiations. Most of that is in the form of loans, which are to be repaid out of the cash settlements that Ottawa contributes to settle modern treaties. Pierre acknowledges that some communities are close to completing treaties, but their debt has climbed to near what Ottawa is offering. This would leave them free but broke. Others are just “spinning their wheels” with no real hope of achieving a treaty, Pierre said. The commission is calling for an “exit strategy” for these communities, starting with loan forgiveness that would allow them to pursue economic activity. There are First Nations, Westbank and Osoyoos prominent among them, which are thriving without treaties. Haida and Klahoose have developed successful forest products businesses as they move toward self-government. Federal and provincial governments must recognize the successes, and the failures.

Think for yourselves Editor: Re: Civic-slate idea returns to White Rock, Oct. 7. Did anybody notice the obvious contradiction in terms in the White Rock Coalition’s description of the slate: “a non-partisan team of independents working together for a better White Rock.” How can you have a ‘team’ of ‘independents’? If they’re independent, how do they work together? The Canucks are a team. Would they be a team if every player decided to become independent? “Just doin’ my own thing, coach!” And ‘non-partisan’? Wouldn’t they all be favouring their own team’s positions on issues, if they all do indeed manage to agree on any given issue? White Rock council is too small for blocs, coalitions, parties or whatever, and I certainly would prefer to elect someone who is not afraid to speak their own mind and vote on issues according to their own thoughts, feelings and knowledge – said knowledge being garnered from experience, research, sounding out the electorate and debate. Sorry, you six. You’ve all just lost my vote. Think for yourselves. Grant Harrison, White Rock

his mines and donates thousands to the BC Liberal government. Why is he not to be held responsible? How does Bill Bennett, minister of energy and mines, escape attention? Are he and his ministry not responsible for safe-guarding British Columbians and the environment from exactly this type of catastrophe? Instead, you redirect attention to some phantom environmentalists, while ignoring the main players. Your laughable, little opinion piece concludes with this absurd bit of quality reporting: ”a single rainbow trout collected the day of the spill is the only confirmed aquatic casualty.” Are you kidding me? One fish? How gullible do you think your readers are? What about the untold number of invertebrates, microbes, frogs, salamanders, birds, mammals, and flora buried beneath the avalanche of polluted sludge? What about the Quesnel Lake ecosystem as a whole? You also conveniently glossed over the million or so returning sockeye salmon heading up river towards this ecological disaster to spawn. Quesnel Lake was considered one of the cleanest lakes in the world,

according to Premier Christy Clark. What was that designation worth, or I am just being emotional? What about human health? Longterm health risks from exposure to heavy metals? What about the accumulation of copper, mercury, magnesium, selenium and arsenic in fish and aquatic species over the long term? What about those people who live around the contaminated site, whose livelihoods are in jeopardy? First Nations who depend on dwindling numbers of returning salmon for survival? The long-term cost to taxpayers to clean up this mess, if it can even be cleaned up? Why this disaster was allowed to happen in the first place? The list goes on and on. One fish, eh? To think that your article is shaping opinions on matters of the environment makes me shudder, but you may be underestimating your readership. I believe many of my fellow British Columbians are wise to your obvious bias, so please don’t include them or me in the “What we know about the mine spill” title of BC Views, because “we” know better.

Unarmed not dangerous Editor: Re: Unarmed officers pose danger: Hepner, Oct. 7. Surrey mayoral candidate Linda Hepner and her team should do some research before making statements. Is Surrey any different than a city such as Winnipeg, a city about the same size with similar crime problems. Since 2009, Winnipeg has put in place a cadet program similar to what candidate Barinder Rasode would put in place. The cadets in Winnipeg answer about 20 calls a day and free up about 30 hours a day for the police to work on crime. These cadets are also unarmed, but they deal with issues such as traffic control or walking the streets in downtown Winnipeg. Residents want to see a presence of people in uniform, regardless of whether they are armed or not. Don Gustafson, Surrey

Environmental misdirection Editor: Re: What we know about the mine spill, Aug. 19 column. Since the horrific dam collapse at Imperial Metals’ Mount Polley open-pit gold and copper mine, releasing 24 million cubic meters of tailings water and heavy-metal-laden sludge and silt into Hazeltine Creek, Polley Lake, Quesnel Lake and, subsequently, the Cariboo, Quesnel and Fraser rivers, I was waiting, albeit with apprehension, to read columnist Tom Fletcher’s take on the largest tailing spill in Canadian history. True to form, he delivered. Flelcher’s column was as contaminated as Hazeltine Creek now is. You can bank on Fletcher to include a vitriolic attack on anything perceived as proenvironment, even after such an awful environmental disaster. Who are these professional environmentalists Fletcher is so keen to discredit? Is anyone who is disgusted, scared or concerned about this disaster one of these so-called professional environmentalists? Is anyone who questions what the heck is going on – when, on a calm, summer day, a massive 50-metretall dam wall holding back billions of litres of polluted, vitiated mining sludge suddenly collapses – a professional environmentalist? Why are you not slamming the majority shareholder of Imperial Metals. He lobbies the BC Liberal government for faster environmental-review processes for

Local recreational rail service will never extend beyond Cloverdale to/from Sullivan, writes G.E. MacDonell.

Railway dream a flight of fancy Re: Better ways to get around towns, Sept. 11 letters. While I enjoyed much of business journalist Brendan B. Read’s letter to the editor, I have to pour an ice bucket of cold water on his proposal for an added rail in Surrey and Langley using a diesel-multiple-unit (DMU) operated commuter train from Vancouver’s old Great Northern Railway station site all the way to Chilliwack. It ain’t not never gonna happen. While he purports that a system called the South Fraser Express would provide direct, quality service on existing tracks, “like the West Coast Express, but with short trains and platforms,” it will never get on the tracks, as it has been derailed before it can even get out of the car barn. The BC Hydro railway line from New Westminster to Chilliwack is still being used for light freight service, as it has been since 1910. Its use for commuter purposes will never happen, despite the fact that BC Hydro renewed all passenger rights in the Master Agreement in respect to the Pratt-Livingstone section of the Fraser Valley Corridor, which is heavily used by Canadian Pacific Railway and the Canadian. In a study that I carried out over a decade ago, the line is not feasible for commuter rail for the following reasons: lack of demand; cost of upgrading the line; lack of available property for stations and car-parking facilities between Scott Road and the City of Langley; and conflict with use of the line between Cloverdale and east of 232 Street on the north side of Highway 1. The line is mostly single-tracked between Pratt and Livingstone junctions, and the cost to double-track it

would be exorbitant. While parts of the line between Cloverdale and Langley City are double-tracked, extensive work would be required to upgrade it and other sections for the heavy demand that the future may bring in coal-train usage to Roberts Bank. So, in short, dreams of a commuter train serving the south side of the Fraser River from Vancouver or New Westminster to Surrey and beyond – whether it is Light Rapid Transit or DMU – are nothing more than pipe dreams of a few rail enthusiasts. Use of part of the line for Fraser Valley Heritage Railway Society’s restored BC Electric Railway interurbans 1225 and 1304 – when it is fully restored in 2017 – is all that will ever happen on the line. As a recreational train service from Cloverdale to Sullivan, FVHRS’ restored interurbans will never see their way past Cloverdale. And, as years go by, as members pass on, all that the society has acquired may end up in a warehouse owned by the City of Surrey. The city has hopes of an LRT line along the King George Boulevard from the City Centre to White Rock, as well as along the Fraser Highway to Langley. Dreams. All pipe dreams. As for extending the SkyTrain system past King George Station… don’t hold your breath. It is time to take off the rose-tinted glasses and realize that the only way to reduce congestion on our roadways is to increase the bus service. It is time to give up living in the past. G.E.

Metric conversion impacts White Rock development

easier to just round it up. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I would almost guarantee that all of these metric setbacks are wrong.â&#x20AC;? Campbell said the rounding up has resulted in â&#x20AC;&#x153;many, many, many cases (where) the numbers are wrong, blatant.â&#x20AC;? Cooper agreed a rounding-up did occur in the transition from Imperial to metric. The new figures â&#x20AC;&#x153;are slightly higher than some years ago,â&#x20AC;? she said. However, â&#x20AC;&#x153;7.7m is the standard in the bylaw.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Twenty-five-point-three is very close.â&#x20AC;? Weighing in, Coun. Louise Hutchinson disagreed that measurement was an issue. Bigger issues, she said, include the proposed duplexâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s size, the potential for a suite and insufficient parking. The volume of comments at the Sept. 29 meeting was a stark contrast to the awkward silence that hung over council Oct. 6, when the amendment bylaw was presented for first and second reading. When no one spoke to second a motion to move the application forward, Baldwin backed it, â&#x20AC;&#x153;to get it on the floor.â&#x20AC;? After more silence, he called the question, with the responding silence taken as support. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be so shy, guys,â&#x20AC;? Baldwin said. The motion carried 5-1, with Campbell opposed. It included a direction to staff to schedule the required public hearing.

Staff Reporter

The City of White Rockâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s conversion from Imperial to metric measurements has resulted in developers receiving greater heights and setbacks than previously allowed. Director of planning and development services Karen Cooper confirmed the detail during last monthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s land-use and planning committee meeting. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Council is correct. They rounded up from the previous Imperial calculation,â&#x20AC;? Cooper said in response to concerns raised by Coun. Al Campbell. At the same time, â&#x20AC;&#x153;the metric numbers are the correct numbers,â&#x20AC;? she said. Campbell questioned the conversion during discussion of a zoningamendment application for 1230 Best St., where proponents want to build a duplex. The proposed 7.7-metre height conforms with both the current RS-1 One Unit Residential zone and the requested RT-1 Two Unit (Duplex) Residential zone. On a comparison chart, however, the figure is noted as equal to 25.3 feet â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Â .04 feet more than the actual conversion result. Campbell said that conflicts with the height maximum people are quoted for single-family homes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is not 25.3 feet,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem to make a lot of sense.

Individuals named in nine categories at the annual Police Officer of the Year Awards

Surrey’s police officers recognized S

urrey RCMP celebrated the best of their best Thursday, as the Surrey Board of Trade hosted the 2014 Police Officer of the Year Awards. Outstanding performers were named in nine categories. • Police Officer of the Year as nominated by peers is Cpl. Nicole Noonan, who was said to be the “hardest working member” under the youth Douglas umbrella. Noonan has been actingsergeant of the Youth Unit since July 2013 and in that time has revamped the program. Leading calls and investigations, conducting interviews and supporting other members when needed, Caley Noonan is a dedicated law enforcement professional, with expertise well beyond her years and service, nominators said. She has participated in Youth Week, Shop with a Cop, Code Blue, Outreach Project and the Think of Me Campaign. • Surrey RCMP Cpl. Summers Allison Douglas is Police Officer of the Year as nominated by the community. Nominators said she embodies the definition of hard work and is a team player. Douglas has played an integral part in the Surrey Coalition Against Domestic Abuse Noonan (SCADA) since its inception in 2009. She has been involved in all aspects of the planning and co-ordination of all four of the SCADA conferences that have been held in Surrey. She has demonstrated leadership in the area of community education Stromberg on domestic abuse and

Allison Douglas receives an award for Police Officer of the Year Thursday. preventing abuse is her driving passion. • Taking the Volunteer of the Year Award is Linda Stromberg. Stromberg has been a Block Watch captain for the past 13 years in Cloverdale. She not only keeps neighbours informed about crime issues and crime prevention tips, she also uses email to educate neighbours on community events, educational opportunities and community development. She is also active in school issues, the City of Surrey’s Parks and Recreation Department, the Cloverdale Community Association and Surrey Libraries. • Karen Summers is the Auxiliary Constable of the Year. For the past 22 years, nominators say she has been the unsung hero of the Surrey RCMP Auxiliary Constable program. She is a regular volunteer at many community events and is an auxiliary constable that can be counted on to assist when needed. She is also an advocate for auxiliaries to ensure they know their rights and responsibilities. • South Surrey Special Const. Susan Caley is the recipient of The Arnold Silzer Community Policing Initiative Award. Caley meets with seniors in South Surrey daily and participates in seniors’ advisory and mental health groups, drivers’ education, fraud prevention strategies and liaisons with South Surrey businesses. Caley also

helps people at the other end of the age spectrum, attending meetings with youth on probation, participating in Big Brothers/ Sisters programs, engaging elementary and high school students and much more. • Karen Klein, ICBC’s Road Safety co-ordinator, won the Police and Business Partnership Award. Klein is described as a committed partner always looking for new solutions to road safety and auto crime prevention. Klein often spearheads new initiatives around the issues of speed, impaired driving, distracted driving, and pedestrian safety. Klein introduced Project SWOOP to Surrey in the spring of 2013. Project SWOOP is designed to educate motorists about the fact speeding and high-risk driving behaviours are dangerous and they increase the probability of being involved in a crash. • Monica Prasad is the Municipal Employee of the Year. Prasad works at Surrey RCMP detachment as a diversity co-ordinator. Prior to this role, Prasad worked as a Victim Services caseworker and filled various term positions as an information officer and records clerk. As a diversity co-ordinator, Prasad organizes and participates in community celebrations such as the Vaisakhi Parade, Rakhi, and Surrey Welcoming Community events.

Prasad also teaches and leads Newcomer Tours and Introduction to Policing to Canada workshops Prasad also serves on various community committees • The Police Team Award went to the Surrey RCMP Criminal Collision Investigation Team (CCIT), which oversees all serious injury and fatal collisions. The unit continually evolves its investigative techniques to gather the most evidence possible – leading to an extremely high solve rate. Members are now applying these techniques to unsolved historical criminal collision files. CCIT members are committed to conducting thorough investigations, not only for the victims, but for the families of the victims, and to ensure that innocent parties are cleared of any wrongdoing. Since the inauguration of the CCIT team, remaining RCMP Traffic Services members have been able to concentrate on trafficrelated enforcement and education, which has resulted in a decrease of the number of fatal and serious injury collisions in Surrey by almost 50 per cent. CCIT has uncovered suspects in all but one of their 144 files to date. The Police Officer of the Year Awards were held at the Sheraton Vancouver Guildford Hotel on Thursday, Oct. 9.

Expecting parents are often advised to make a will before or shortly after their child is born. While all adults should have a will, it's especially important that parents have a will that clearly deÀnes who will inherit their assets after they die. Expecting parents may not want to think about a will when their child has yet to be born, but a will is an important document that can be used to designate who will act as a child's guardian should his or her parents die before the child is legally recognized as an adult.

LAW CORPORATION Kent Sanderson, Kim Karras, Kirsten Wharton, Tamara Huculak

Did you know?

In addition, a will can also be used to designate a trustee of your estate who will manage any assets left behind to your children until they reach adulthood. Laws regarding assets left behind by a person who died without a will vary depending on where a person lived, but many such laws are inÁexible and the government may even charge the estate to manage assets until children reach adulthood and are therefore legally recognized as able to manage the assets on their own. Parents who leave no will behind may also have no say in who raises their children, which can be difÀcult on the kids and troublesome for family members left to Àght for custody of the children. Lawyers can help parents avoid certain pitfalls that could prove problematic and costly should someone challenge the will after your death. Such pitfalls include not having enough witnesses to the will or not stating in the will that the document is, in fact, your will.

Until the end of the month, Roadhouse Grille, 1781 King George Blvd., will donate 50 cents from every bill to the run. Thrifty Foods in Morgan Crossing, 15765 Croydon Dr., will launch their Pumpkins for Patients campaign Oct.15. One dollar from each customer who purchases fresh

Supporters of Peace Arch Hospital were honoured earlier this month at the annual Friends of the Foundation celebration at the Morgan Creek Golf Club. The sixth annual event, held on Oct. 1, recognized one family, three individuals and one organization for their “extraordinary contributions to the health and wellness of the community” with a special Friends of the Foundation award. The Cameron family – longtime supports of the foundation – were recognized for their contributions and generosity, which have made a “real and lasting impact at Peace Arch Hospital.” Dave Lee, who sits on the foundation’s planned giving committee, was also recognized. According to a news release, Dave has

partnered with the foundation on more than a dozen events with local seniors, sharing his knowledge on estate planning and charitable giving. Also recognized was registered nurse Jodi-rae Kortje, who manages the ER at PAH and has been a tireless supporter of the foundation’s events, and Allan Johanson, a volunteer with the foundation for eight years, serving on the Gala and Great Pumpkin Run Walk committees. White Rock Optometry was recognized with the Community Partnership Award, for the fundraising efforts, which include matching every dollar that patients donate to the foundation and participating annually in the Great Pumpkin Run Walk, being held this year on Oct. 26.

Ninety-five spots available

Youth parliament nominees sought The B.C. Youth Parliament is looking for 95 young men and women to visit Victoria this Christmas, debate important service projects for youth and put those plans in place in 2015. Nominations of exceptional young people to take part will be accepted by the BCYP for the next three weeks, until Oct. 29. “We’re looking for young people who want to learn more about our system of government, make lifelong friends and take part in projects that benefit our province’s youth,” Darya Ali, premier for the upcoming year of BCYP, said in a news release. “We’re asking community leaders, elected officials and others to think about young people who’d be great members of this organization and make sure those youth are aware of this opportunity.” The B.C. Youth Parliament is a non-partisan, nondenominational, non-profit service organization.

It plans, fundraises for and puts in place service projects that help improve the lives of young people. These include group community service events, partnerships with community service organizations, regional model parliaments and individual youth volunteer projects. BCYP members spend time at the B.C. legislature in Victoria between Boxing Day and New Years Day every year to debate and vote on the organization’s proposed activities and issues of local, national and international importance. All members sit as independents, and are free to vote according to their conscience on the issues. Interested youth must be between 16 and 21 years old; residents of B.C. for the past year; able to commit to a year’s worth of service; and interested in learning more about how the democratic system works.

Rookie netminder Daniel Davidson earns first career victory

Drapluk OT goal gives Eagles second win Nick Greenizan Sports Reporter

Perhaps some puck luck is returning to the Surrey Eagles. After starting the BC Hockey League season with six straight losses – including two in overtime – the South Surrey-based team

earned its second consecutive victory Wednesday night. And in overtime, no less. The Eagles got their second win of the young season with a 3-2 come-from-behind effort against the visiting Salmon Arm Silverbacks.

Things looked bleak for the Birds in the early stages of the game, as the Silverbacks jumped out to a 2-0 lead on goals from former Eagle Josh Blanchard – who was just traded to Salmon Arm last week – and Carson Bolduc. The second period was a reversal

of fortunes for the home team, however, as the Eagles squared away the score at 2-2 on goals by Trevor McLean – who fired a blast from the blue-line – and captain Chase McMurphy. Neither team broke the deadlock in the third period, which sent the

game to overtime. And little time was wasted in the extra session, as Eagles forward Joe Drapluk sent the fans home happy, scoring the winner just 12 seconds into overtime. Not only did the win give i see page 18

With an eye on player retention, the Semiahmoo Minor Hockey Association (SMHA) is launching its Performance Program this season. Run for players on A1 teams in the atom (9-10), peewee (11-12), bantam (13-14) and midget (15-17) age groups, the program is a curriculum for coaches to follow, co-ordinating player development on all four rep teams. With a focus on both on-ice development of dry land training, the program will ensure “appropriate skills are taught at each level and then built upon at the next level.” “The board has been championing it for a couple of years,” said Dave Newson, executive director of SMHA. “It’s a bit of a response to the changing world of minor hockey, with all the academies, skills camps etc. We’re offering something similar, with more of a community approach.” Fulltime hockey academies have been appearing in communities across the country for several years, often attracting some of the best minor hockey players to their programs. Numerous high schools are now offering hockey academies, at which a hockey class replaces physical education. “Academies will come to you with a brochure, and sell you on what they can offer,” said Newson. “The minor hockey tradition used to be, make the team and we’ll see what happens. We’re now saying, here’s what you can expect.” In the past, the association would select rep teams, then turn them over to volunteer i see page 19

The 16-year-old Surrey native – who had only appeared in relief of starter Christian Short prior to Wednesday’s

start – stopped 32 of 34 shots. The Eagles had a light schedule over the Thanksgiving weekend, playing just one home game Sunday afternoon against the visiting Trail Smoke Eaters. The game was played after PAN’s long-weekend deadline. Tomorrow (Wednesday), the Eagles travel to Langley to face the divisionrival Rivermen.

Joint effort i from page 17 coaches each season, who would independently plan practices and training. Players going through the rep system would be asked to train differently each time they would play under a new coach. Under the Performance Program, which includes the Valley West Hawks of the BC Hockey Major Midget League and the Junior A Surrey Eagles as partners, players will receive a â&#x20AC;&#x153;co-ordinated approachâ&#x20AC;? to player development. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our strength will be the continuity over the years, from when a player first steps onto the ice to when heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in midget looking to move on to major-midget or junior hockey,â&#x20AC;? said Newson. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Eagles and Hawks will help a bit with coaching and player evaluation, but a lot through inspiration. They will be what players strive for.â&#x20AC;?
