School district under fire from BC Parents and Teachers for Life

‘Family group’ targets pro-gay policy Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

A South Surrey-based “pro-family” group is calling on the Surrey School Board to rescind the district’s newly minted antihomophobia policy. And BC Parents and Teachers for Life officials hope the matter of Regulation 9410.2 is one voters will keep in mind as they head to the polls next month.

“It ought to be (an election issue),” Ted Hewlett, the group’s past-president, told Peace Arch News Tuesday. “This was something that was introduced that will affect parents and students. It was not introduced with the knowledge of most parents. “It really caught us by surprise.” School trustees gave unanimous support to the Safe and Caring Schools: Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity regulation in June

2013, a year after a committee of teachers, district staff, parents and students was struck to establish it. District spokesman Doug Strachan said this week he could not speak to the criticism, but that the district is “preparing a response.” Following the regulation’s approval, one Surrey student called it “very validating.” “It signals that the board does care about students like me and students who are LGBTQ

(lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and questioning), or have gay or lesbian parents or gender-identity issues,” Anthony Hope said. “The board is recognizing this and saying that it’s OK.” Hewlett said a position paper and “hundreds” of signatures in support of rescinding 9410.2 were hand-delivered to the school board office last week. i see page 4

Residents woke up Wednesday to fallout from an overnight windstorm.

Any way the wind blows… A blustery night of winds up to 80 km/h left the Semiahmoo Peninsula littered with downed trees, power lines and other debris Wednesday morning. The powerful storm left thousands of people in the dark for hours, with many told it wouldn’t be restored until early evening. Police say the weather kept them busy, however, there were no reports of storm-related injuries.

Surrey RCMP is warning sextrade workers to be wary following two recent incidents where women were sexually and physically assaulted. Police said Monday that on Oct. 12, an officer was flagged down by a distraught woman near 144 Street and 64 Avenue. She said she had been assaulted by a man she’d met on King George Boulevard, but managed to escape her attacker and seek help. Police searched the area with dogs, but were unable to locate a suspect. Then on Oct. 18, a second sextrade worker came forward with a similar story of an incident that had occurred a month earlier, describing a similar suspect. Mounties say the suspect is described as a white man, about 35 years old, five-foot-10, weighing 200-230 pounds, with a balding or shaved head and crooked teeth. He may go by the name James or Jeff. Investigators are concerned there may be more people who have been victimized or who have information about the attacks. Anyone with further information is encouraged to contact the Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

problem from suites is the lack of parking. The city has never acknowledged in its development and zoning bylaws the effect that suites have on neighbourhood parking. Thus, in many dense neighbourhoods, such as East Clayton, parking is at a premium. The city addressed this issue with large trucks years ago, requiring that they be parked in separate lots in industrial areas. It is much harder to solve this problem for cars and trucks which people use for day-to-day travel. Some years ago, then-councillor Marvin Hunt stated that the city really didn’t get many complaints about suites, but received plenty about parking. This issue remains a challenge, with no easy solution in sight. Better transit will encourage some people to sell or never own cars – a trend that is pronounced in the younger generation. However, it is hard to get around in Surrey without a car. As most suites are located in residential neighourhoods, transit service is rarely close by. Suites are here to stay in Surrey. If most are registered, and homeowners are paying the city for extra services they consume, there will be few problems. Parking does need to be addressed, but what might work best is a town hall-type meeting where people can propose solutions. Some innovation is needed to ensure that people who live in suites do not make it impossible to park in any given neighbourhood. Frank Bucholtz writes Thursdays for the Peace Arch News.

Surrey, West Vancouver at opposite ends of the spectrum

Fraser Institute compares city spending Jeff Nagel Black Press

Metro Vancouver municipalities vary wildly in how much they spend and tax, according to an analysis released by the Fraser Institute as local election campaigns intensify. The report found West Vancouver, New Westminster and Vancouver are the cities that spent the most per resident in 2012, while Surrey, Maple Ridge and Port Coquitlam spent the least. The disparity ranged from a high of $2,118 per person in tony West Vancouver to a low of $951 in Surrey. In White Rock, the figure is $1,351. Lead author Charles Lammam said the aim

is to make it easier for voters to compare their city to others as they decide which candidates should represent them for the next four years. “We’re trying to shed light on what is otherwise a black hole when it comes to comparing local government finances,” he said. Lammam acknowledged there are many reasons for the differences – some cities simply decide their residents want different service levels from their neighbours and are willing to pay more for them. “People will vote with their feet,” he said. “They’ll move to jurisdictions that have local governments that align with their preferences.” Delta is one of the municipalities Lammam

points to as having much higher levels of spending and taxation than Surrey, despite being right next door. Delta Mayor Lois Jackson, who has been acclaimed for another term without challenge, said Delta’s stand-alone police department is a key difference from Surrey that her residents would never give up. Delta has long outspent Surrey on policing, delivering “no call too small” service. “Our people want to have the best emergency services we can provide and we are doing that,” Jackson said, who cautioned against “apples and oranges” comparisons. According to the data compiled by the Fraser Institute, Delta spends $567 per resident each year for protective services – fire

and police – while Surrey’s cost per person is $347. But Surrey’s $220 relative savings per capita on fire and police may shrink, however. Most candidates for Surrey council are promising to hire dozens more officers after a string of violent murders over the past year pushed crime to the top of the civic agenda. The report shows West Vancouver spends twice the Metro average on parks and recreation at $570 per person versus $284 regionally and just $153 in Surrey. Vancouver spends the most on general government – $270 compared to a Metro average of $176 and $81 in Surrey, while solid waste and utilities spending is highest on the North Shore.

Retiring councillor returned to White Rock city hall after hiatus

‘I still have 40 days to make noise’ Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

The upcoming municipal election marks a milestone for veteran White Rock politician Louise Hutchinson. It will mark the first time in 4½ decades that she and husband, Don, (recently named one of Surrey’s Civic Treasures) have complete freedom to do as they choose. “Together, we have no responsibilities to anything outside of ourselves,” Hutchinson said in her report to council Monday, explaining why she did not file papers to try and retain her seat on White Rock council. “I’m footloose, fancy-free and the decision, while a tough one, is absolutely the right one.” The septuagenarian first got involved with White Rock council in 1985 – “almost half a lifetime ago” – and served three terms before giving up the path in 1996 in favour of her family and a career working with special needs children. She sought a return to council in the last municipal election, she said, because she sensed something was not quite right at city hall. For the first time in recent memory, there were grumblings in the community; an apparent disconnect between those running the city and the people they represented, she said.

Ottawa shootings felt here Jeff Nagel Black Press

Security has been tightened by government authorities across the country, including in B.C., after suspected terrorist shootings that rocked Parliament Hill Wednesday morning and killed a soldier posted at the National War Memorial. The attack started with the point-blank shooting of one of two honour guards at the memorial. A gun battle with dozens of shots fired then ensued inside the Parliament building, where one male attacker was killed, report-

edly by the sergeant-at-arms. Members of Parliament, staff and media were locked down inside while police hunted for other potential suspects and swept for explosives in Ottawa amid reports of more gunfire. “We are safe,” tweeted SurreyNewton MP Jinny Sims, from the ongoing lockdown. “Cannot believe this is happening in my Canada.” At least two victims with injuries were taken to hospital and are in stable condition. Canadian Forces Bases and many other federal facilities were

closed to visitors and military personnel were reportedly directed not to wear uniforms in public unless they are on active duty. The B.C. Legislature restricted visitor access but was expected to proceed with its afternoon sitting, with extra security. In Metro Vancouver, Transit Police said they stepped up security measures, as did Vancouver International Airport. The Ottawa attack came two days after a Canadian soldier was struck and killed by a vehicle in Montreal driven by a man RCMP described as radicalized.

Input sought for all school parents i from page 1 The paper – which also calls on the district to initiate an “open discussion with parents and taxpayers to address the issues involved” – states that institution of the regulation “opened up the schools to wide-ranging indoctrination,” by mandating teachers and counsellors be trained “to be instruments of propaganda on behalf of homosexualist activism”; supporting gay-straight alliances “that spread… controversial viewpoints among students”; and “the altering of curriculum to make sure that the pro-homosexuality message permeates it.” The paper criticizes the lack of

“facts about the consequences of homosexual behaviour included in school materials designed by pro-homosexuality activists.” And, it criticizes an apparent lack of opportunity for parents to prevent the indoctrination of their children. “BC Parents and Teachers for Life wants the board to consider the viewpoints of parents who hold traditional views of sexual morality and do not wish their teachings undermined in the schools,” an Oct. 16 news release states. The regulation’s history goes back about 17 years. It began in 1997 when primary

teacher James Chamberlain asked the board of the day to approved three children’s books featuring same-sex parents. His request was denied, sparking legal action that spanned years, divided the community, garnered national attention and proceeded all the way to the Supreme Court of Canada. Hewlett said he is hopeful the concerns raised by BCPTL can be addressed “as soon as possible.” “Revisit the issues involved so that all parents get a chance to have a say. “What happens in Surrey is often very influential,” he said.

Danger lurks within Canada

fatal attack Wednesday morning on a Canadian Forces soldier at the National War Memorial, and the subsequent entry by the shooter into the nearby Parliament Buildings in Ottawa, is deeply troubling. One shooter was shot dead by police and security forces inside the Parliament Buildings. There were many reports of multiple shots inside the buildings, and Parliament was shut down for the day. The shooting came as MPs were gathering for caucus meetings, and apparently took place near their caucus meeting rooms. At Peace Arch News press time Wednesday, it was too early to say if there was more than one shooter. That morning, police were busy securing the perimeter and determining if there were more people involved. This incident comes just two days after a young man named Martin Rouleau, whom the federal government and RCMP say was “radicalized,” lay in wait for military personnel at St. Jean de Richelieu, outside Montreal, and deliberately ran one of them down. One soldier later died and the shooter himself was shot dead, after leading police on a chase and then refusing to put down a knife, when he emerged from his car after it crashed. It might be determined that both incidents could be related to the Canadian decision to send six warplanes against ISIS, the radical group which is holding a portion of Iraq and Syria and taunting western governments. The Canadian Forces decided to shut down a number of bases on Wednesday after the second incident and was warning military personnel to take extra precautions. While they are in uniform, they are an obvious target. The Quebec incident shows the danger which lurks within Canada, due to the recruiting of young and vulnerable people by ISIS and other like-minded groups. In the case of Rouleau, the RCMP had been in touch with him due to postings he had made on the Internet. All of this is almost incomprehensible. In some ways, this resembles the terrorist-like actions of the Front de Liberation du Quebec in October 1970, when it took two hostages and killed one of them, Quebec cabinet minister Pierre Laporte. That led to the “October Crisis” and imposition of the War Measures Act. Will this be a repeat of those crisis-filled days?

campaigns, I’d be asking the previously elected politicians what they’ve been up to these past few terms while on the public dime. Surely they – as individuals – have accomplished something… anything… And no, riding another politician’s coattails is hardly an accomplishment in itself. Don’t forget, the only tangible difference between mayor and councillor, on paper at least, is more face time. The mayor has exactly one vote on a council, and, in Surrey’s case, uses it only to break ties. And if your outgoing leader happened to accept credit for all your team accomplishments, that just might have to be your loss now. You wanted to make our streets safer, lobby for more public transit or build a ferris wheel? You had your chance. Same goes for their fellow incumbents – in Surrey, White Rock and any other city one might have an interest in. We voted you in last time, so your name’s a little more recognizable. Please don’t make that the primary reason why we should vote for you this time. And a word to the fledgling council politicians, at least three of whom will be elected in Surrey and two in White Rock on Nov. 15: This doesn’t have to be a popularity contest. Make it about the issues. By simply filing nomination papers, you’ve got our attention. Now hold it. We’ll assume you’re “trustworthy” and “hardworking.” Now tell us why our city will be different under your leadership, so we’ll have something to judge you on next time, when you’re the incumbent.

Temptation crosses line Editor: Encouraging another fatality? I was struck by several things I saw as I walked down at the West Beach last weekend. Those ‘several things’ were bench seats that dotted the grassy areas that run the whole length of that section from the boat launch to the museum. These benches are situated on the beach side of the railway tracks, and can only be reached by walking across the boat launch or by walking across the tracks. It seems rather shortsighted and completely illogical to have placed continuous fencing along the railway tracks on the road side of the tracks – to prevent people getting through the fencing and then walking across the tracks – if you are then ‘teasing’ them by placing a lovely seating bench just the other side of the tracks that no one is going to access by any other means than by quickly ‘hoofing’ it across the tracks where they can be reached within 20 feet rather than walk 150 or 200 metres to reach them by crossing at the boat launch. It makes no sense! Remove those benches, eliminate the need for people to even think about crossing the tracks to get to these seats and then relocate these seats to a location that makes more sense. Intersperse them on the roadside of the tracks, where there are not enough seats already on a nice sunny day for people to take advantage of. Remove the temptation and thus you have at least reduced the risks. Isn’t that what it is all about? Michael King, White Rock

Crime takes its toll Editor: On the way home from the lake, I briefly stopped in to see my dad. I parked in the underground parking lot and popped in for one hour on a Sunday afternoon at 5 p.m. During that time a thief vandalized my car and stole my overnight bag. Smash and grab. I found out from the many helpful people that live in the condo that there has been a rash of stolen cars and thefts from cars in our South Surrey/White Rock parkades. I would like to remind everyone to warn friends and family that these thieves have found our little piece of heaven and are targeting visitor undergrounds. It’s an easy way to make a living, as police have little to no time to try to catch them. Leave nothing in your car – even if you are just running in for a few minutes with a load of stuff from your weekend away, to give your dad a hug! Cathie Hayes, Surrey Q Our old white Nissan truck, 1993, was stolen from our barn in South Surrey on Sept. 17. The police thought it would show

up, but it hasn’t. We need the truck to take squash to market and to move beehives. Please notice if a truck like that is parked on your street. Thank you so much. We love our truck and want it back. ICBC wants us to renew the insurance on it! Bev Hopkins, Surrey

Nice place to visit Editor: I was a patient at Peace Arch Hospital for seven weeks, and I must say the doctors and nurses were wonderful. After they sent me home, a nurse

came to visit me three times a week to monitor my progress and change my dressings. This made space in the hospital for more patients waiting for beds. We definitely need more hospitals. The food service is very good. But I was looking forward to going home and being with my wife. Ernie Avory, Surrey

Capital idea to end violence Editor: Those in authority should bring back the electric chair. The policy should be a ‘life for a life.’ We are tired of all the killings these days.

If one knew that the consequence would be the electric chair, one would think twice before killing someone. Then, our crime rate would go noticeably down. We would be rid of those with a selfish mindset to kill. Going to the penitentiary is a holiday. We, as taxpayers, pay all their expenses. An inmate gets a room, bed, television and three meals a day. There are outdoor sports and activities. When weather hinders these outdoor activities, there are table games and movies. One can even further their education or take occupational courses. Please bring back the electric chair and let us put a stop to all these killings! Ruth J. Kile, Surrey

A retiring White Rock councillor’s views on White Rock not having room for full-size buses sparks discussion.

Debate grows over long buses Editor: Re: White Rock no place for big buses, Oct. 16. Thumbs up to White Rock Coun. Louise Hutchinson for her observations about “great, big, long buses in White Rock.” Although I do not have an opinion about the situation in White Rock, I most certainly share those exact sentiments about the dozens of the 351 bus that course through Crescent Beach each and every day. The streets in the beach area are very narrow and not at all suitable for these highway buses that run almost always empty through the neighbourhood. Nor do the drivers respect the 30 km/h speed limit within the beach area. Meanwhile the rest of South Surrey is crying for increased bus service. Translink doesn’t seem to have noticed most of the new builds are not along the western boundaries. A smaller community bus coming through the beach area would be so appreciated. Jane Wright, Surrey Q Coun. Louise Hutchinson obviously doesn’t take public transit. Her comments that “we don’t need great, big, long buses in White Rock” are ridiculous and shortsighted. We do need these buses. I use the 351 to get to Vancouver – it is easier and less polluting than driving. I doubt very much that Hutchinson has ever been on the 351 on a weekday around 6 or 7 a.m. If she saw how crowded these buses are, with the citizens she represents, she would not make such a silly statement as “my goal one day is not to have the 351s here at all.” Hutchinson would be better off complaining about all the cars with one occupant; these are the vehicles that clog our streets, it isn’t the buses. Fortunately, for all of us in White Rock, Hutchinson will not be running for council again! Susan Ellis, White Rock

Q I just moved to Thrift Avenue. I saw the bus stop when I rented our new home but assumed it was for small community buses. Little did I know that I would be living with the noise of more than 150 Greyhound-type buses speeding by my bedroom window each day, beginning at 4:27 a.m. My guess is the count is closer to 300 buses, since the majority of the buses are ‘Not In Service,’ plus there are the 354 buses as well. The NIS buses are always speeding over 50 km/h and all of the buses sound like jet planes. I have slept with my window open during all four seasons for my entire life, but now I must get up and close my window in the middle of the night after I’m woken up. This is probably best, since black plumes of smoke shoot out of the buses coming up the hill, so I’m now dealing with air and noise pollution. I moved to White Rock for the fresh air and the peace and quiet. I used to live near Davie and Denman in downtown Vancouver, and I thought the buses there were loud; they are whisper-quiet compared to the rocketships here. There is a new condo development going up on Thrift Avenue with $1.5-million units. Who is going to spend that kind of money to sit on an ocean-view deck, huff diesel smoke and not be able to hear their family or friends over the traffic? I hope that these buses are diverted down a different road in the very near future. Thrift Avenue has no businesses on it: it is a purely residential street from Winter to Oxford, with two small lanes with some room for parking. It should not be used as a corridor for speeding buses; 16 Avenue, with its four wide lanes, is designed for that purpose. I applaud Coun. Louise Hutchinson’s attempts to get rid of these buses in White Rock. I wish she were running for re-election; I would vote for her in a heartbeat. M. Hollaway, White Rock

Larry Mizen confirmed as Surrey’s 13th murder victim of year

Whalley drug-trade ‘enforcer’ found dead Kevin Diakiw Black Press

Contributed photo

Larry Mizen found dead.

A man and a myth are now dead after the killing of Larry Robert Mizen, a man who ruled the streets of Surrey’s Whalley neighbourhood for years. Say Mizen’s name out loud on Whalley’s notorious strip along 135A Street and people would scatter, as though uttering his name would summon retribution. They described him as an immense man, who patrolled the streets wearing a leather glove on one hand. Crossing the expert in martial arts was ill-advised.

Those who did had the trademark Mizen split on their forehead, a result of his gloved fist pounding their head with a single punch. He ruled the streets, and the street-level drug trade in Whalley for years. On Sunday, at about 8:40 p.m., the 54-yearold was found dead in the basement suite of a home in the 11000-block of 136 Street. The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT) is now investigating, and confirmed the dead man is Mizen. He was extremely well known to police. Black Press became aware of Mizen

Scholarship fund set up Sheila Reynolds Black Press

A high school scholarship has been set up in the name of a Surrey student killed in a car crash in Delta on Thanksgiving Day. Chantal MacLean and her boyfriend, Cody Kehler – both 17-year-old Clayton Heights Secondary students – died in a multivehicle accident on Oct. 13. MacLean’s family has established a scholarship to honour Chantal, a talented rugby player. Her sister, Shakeira, said the fund is intended to help carry on Chantal’s legacy as a dedicated, inspiring athlete. Contributions to the Chantal MacLean Scholarship Fund can be made at any Coast Capital

Savings branch, transit #301600, membership #40106956. Wire transfers may be sent to Coast Capital Savings, branch 146, account #08093016010110004050530, swift code: CUCXCATTVAN. The Delta-based Britannia Lions Rugby Club, for which Kehler played, has also set up a fund to help both families with costs they are facing. Donations can be made at http://bit. ly/1raUMMP Separate memorial services are being held for both teens this week. The MacLean family hosted Chantal’s celebration of life at Christian Life Assembly in Langley Wednesday. Cody’s celebration of life is scheduled at the same church, 21277 56 Ave., on Friday at 3 p.m.

and his reputation while working on an in-depth profile of Whalley in 2004. RCMP and bylaw officers all had stories about Mizen. Many of them involved violence and that well-known split he created on the heads of his foes. The day he was killed, he was posting angrily on Facebook, questioning whether a woman he knew was a hooker. Mizen is Surrey’s 13th confirmed murder of the year – the average reached between 2003 and 2012. Anyone with information is asked to call the IHIT tip line at 1-877-551-IHIT (4448).

Chase leads to three arrests Kevin Diakiw Black Press

Driving cars that betrayed their name, three people in two Ford Escapes have been arrested after a dramatic chase through four municipalities last Friday morning. Just after midnight, a Chilliwack man reported his car stolen and witnesses helped RCMP locate it and another Escape in that city. The two stolen cars took off heading down Highway 1, through Abbotsford, Langley and into Surrey. Once the cars began to speed excessively, Mounties broke off the chase and allowed police helicopter Air One to continue pursuit. One of the cars drove into a ditch at 156 Street and 64 Avenue. The

single occupant was unharmed and arrested without incident. The 27-year-old South Surrey driver is known to police. The second vehicle continued and was seen pulling into a parking lot in the 7100-block of Hall Road. The male driver and female passenger fled of foot. With the assistance of police dog services, the two were located and arrested. The 34-year-old driver from Langley, and his passenger, a 23-year-old from Delta, are known to police. All three suspects were arrested on multiple charges of possession of stolen property, flight from police, dangerous driving and breach of conditional sentence order.

Endowment ensures Darts Hillâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s future Surreyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Darts Hill Garden Park has a long life ahead of it, thanks to its former owner. A $4-million endowment designated by the late Francisca Dartsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; estate has been established to sustain the park in perpetuity, according to an Oct. 21 City of Surrey news release . Darts Hill Garden was established by Francisca and Edwin Darts in the 1940s and the 7.5-acre park is well-known for its variety of rare and precious plants, shrubs and trees. In 1994, Francisca gifted the garden to the City of Surrey to maintain as a

centre for preservation, enhancement and development of horticultural specimens. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Darts Hill Garden was a wonderful and generous gift from Francisca Darts to the residents of Surrey, and because of this endowment, the garden will continue to grow and flourish for the enjoyment of generations to come,â&#x20AC;? City of Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts said in the release. The Darts Hill Garden Park Endowment Fund will be managed by SurreyCares (formerly

David Hutchinson presented Emily King (centre) with the award named after his late daughter, Beth.

OCTOBER 18 - NOVEMBER 2

Creating a lasting legacy Sarah Massah Staff Reporter

Saturday will mark one year since David Hutchinson lost his eldest daughter to brain cancer. Beth, 20, passed away on Oct. 25, 2013 after battling the deadly disease for four years. In that time, both worked to raise awareness on issues related to cancer – including medicinal marijuana – and shared Beth’s inspiring story. Despite her passing, Hutchinson has continued to share his daughter’s story, and with the help of Coast Capital Savings, generations to come will know who Beth was.

This spring, Coast Capital approached Hutchinson about naming a scholarship for Beth, who was a recipient of the Coast Capital Standing Tall Award in 2012. Beth used the award to attend post-secondary at UBC. However, she was forced to give up her studies as her cancer progressed. The newly named Beth Hutchinson Standing Tall Award will now help other students in need, while doubling as a fitting legacy for Beth, Hutchinson said. “It’s a nice way for Beth to be remembered. Beth cared about education, she cared about

literacy, she cared about a lot of things,” Hutchinson told Peace Arch News. Hutchinson worked with the committee that would select the student, and on Oct. 2 was able to meet Maple Ridge’s Emily King, who was the first to receive his daughter’s namesake. “She’s a lovely young woman. She is the same age as Beth was, and her manner, demeanor and even her look, there was something about her that reminded me of Beth. It was quite emotional to see. “It’s incredible for me because Saturday will be a year since her passing. I think about her a lot.”

Three hundred participated in the 34th annual South Surrey/ White Rock Terry Fox Run, raising $11,000 for the Terry Fox Foundation and its research arm. More than 30 volunteers, mostly Rotarians, helped organize the event with assistance from the South Surrey RCMP, South Surrey Community Police Bike Patrol, St. John Ambulance and local businesses. The Rotary Club of South Surrey is very active in the support of the health, education and general welfare of young people both in our community and at an international level. Locally, they have enjoyed a long-standing relationship with the South Surrey/White Rock Learning Center, helping to encourage and support at-risk youth by providing scholarships, mentoring and other practical assistance to the students. Internationally, they are very proud of their contribution to an underserved orphanage in remote Battambong, Cambodia. Working jointly with the Rotary Clubs of Amsterdam Minerva (Netherlands) and Bangkok (Thailand) the South Surrey Club has generated funding, organizational and technical expertise to the upgrading of this orphanage. Valerie Giles writes monthly on behalf of the Semiahmoo Peninsula’s five Rotary Clubs.

Soroptimists to host film night on Oct. 31 Soroptomist International of White Rock will host its annual film night Oct. 31 with a showing of The Whistleblower. The movie night ties in with the international volunteer organizations awareness campaign called Soroptimists Stop Trafficking, which aims to shed light on sex trafficking. The movie focuses on a UN peacekeeper who discovered a sex-trafficking ring, then risks her life to save others. The campaign was first launched by the Soroptimists on December 2, 2007 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the International Day of the

Abolition of Slavery. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a misconception that trafficking only occurs in far-away countries. It occurs everywhere, even in our own backyards,â&#x20AC;? film festival chair Liz Aubert said in a press release. Soroptimists undertake a number of projects that directly and indirectly help potential trafficking victims by providing aid to women and girls and giving economic tools and skills to women to achieve financial independence. For more information on the campaign, visit www.soroptimist.org/ stoptrafficking.html

Semiahmoo Shopping Centre art part of aquarium contest

Lots to ‘sea’ in new mural A freshly painted mural at Semiahmoo Shopping Centre is opportunity for young and old alike to ‘sea’ what they know about underwater life. What Do You Sea? challenges visitors to the South Surrey mall to identify 11 sea mammals featured in a colourful mural completed this month on the wall just inside the north entrance. The contest is being held in conjunction with the Vancouver Aquarium, with one winner of a family visit for four to the aquarium being drawn every Sunday through Nov. 17. The grand-prize winner, to be drawn after 5 p.m. Nov. 16, will receive a family visit to the aquarium plus a sea otter encounter (encounter participants must be at least eight years old). Entry forms are available at

Vojislav Morosan’s work highlighted by Tourism White Rock

‘Iconic’ artist to be featured in calendar Alex Browne

Arts Reporter

t’s a highly serendipitous combination. The opening gala of the second annual International Artist Day Festival at the White Rock Community Centre on Friday, Oct. 24, will feature the launch – and a sneak preview – of Tourism White Rock’s sixth annual Art Calendar, a tribute to an “iconic” White Rock artist. Vojislav (Voja) Morosan died in 2008 but his work – and his keen eye for the White Rock scene in every season of the year – lives on in more than 200 plein-air oil paintings he made in over a decade in the city. Now Tourism White Rock’s 2015 calendar, dedicated in “loving memory” of Morosan, will bring his art, which so accurately captured the colours and moods of the city, to a whole new audience. Tourism White Rock executive director Betina Albornoz said that, helping mark the launch of the calendar, Norma Morosan, wife of the artist for 26 years, will be a special guest at the gala and will sign calendars alongside a display of several of Morosan’s originals. Born in Belgrade in the former Yugoslavia, the French-trained Morosan had been a Canadian resident since 1968. The Morosans moved to White Rock in 1996 and the painter quickly became part of the city landscape. “Over the years, he became undoubtedly an iconic figure in our community,” Albornoz said. “He was often seen in front of an easel, wearing a white straw hat, with his faithful Yorkshire terrier Pebbles by his side. “From the time I first saw his collection, I thought this would be a very special calendar,” she added. “I was so impressed with the quality of representation of so many corners of our city in ways I’d never seen before. There is accuracy and detail, but you also see life in every painting. It’s not just the architecture and the landmarks – you see the presence of people in all of the paintings.” Albornoz said she was thrilled that Norma Morosan was so receptive to the idea. “We both thought the calendar would be the perfect channel for all these paintings to come alive again.” “This would have been the ultimate for Voja, the ultimate recognition,” Norma Morosan said.

Late artist Vojislav Morosan was well known around White Rock for his paintings of city landscapes. His work will be featured in a 2015 Tourism White Rock calendar (above right). “For him, coming to a new country, and then a new province, was overwhelming. He wanted to be accepted as an immigrant and also as a new artist, and to be accepted in the arts society in general. It was very

important to him.” A dedicated display of Morosan’s collection will follow after the conclusion of the IAD festival weekend events. The Morosan Tribute exhibit will open on

Oct. 27, from 5 to 7 p.m. at the White Rock Community Centre as part of the City of White Rock’s “Art on Display” program and will continue on until November 15. Calendars will be available for sale at all these various events and festivities. “I’m so glad, and so many people are volunteering their time to help me,” Norma Morosan said. “Because there isn’t a gallery involved with this show, it means I don’t have to deal with commissions. That means that more people have the chance to own a Morosan and that more paintings can stay in White Rock – which is what I want, to have his work seen and appreciated here.” The IAD gala will run 6 to 10 p.m. this Friday at the centre (15154 Russell Ave.) This year’s event will feature 17 master artists and their work from around the world in an intimate open air studio concept. Also featured will be a 12-inch-by-12inch gallery with more than 200 original anonymous artworks for purchase painted by artists from across Canada; live music and world- class entertainment; appetizers and culinary delights catered by Jan’s on the Beach, and a Township 7 Wine Bar. Other highlights of the IAD Festival will include a concert by classic pop and blues artists The Cooler Kings at Blue Frog Studio on Sat. Oct. 25 as well as weekendlong art talks and exhibits showcasing both local and international artistic talents. Gala tickets are still available – single tickets are $150 each, or $200 for a couples’ ticket. Each single ticket includes a $100 “Gift Art”voucher that can be applied to any art purchase during the weekend-long Festival. Tickets may be ordered by phone at 604536-8333 or at the office of Semiahmoo Arts, 14601 20 Ave.

Surging Hawks run win streak to six Rick Kupchuk Black Press

The Valley West Hawks have extended their win streak to six games, sweeping the Kootenay Ice in a pair of BC Hockey Major Midget League games in Nelson last weekend. The Hawks blanked the Ice 7-0 Saturday, then won a wild 11-7 contest Sunday morning to push their record to 6-2-0 (won-losttied), tied for third place in the 11-team league with the Okanagan Rockets. The Hawks used the powerplay to surge past Kootenay Saturday, scoring four times with the man advantage in a game delayed almost six hours. “An administrative error had refs scheduled for 5 p.m. rather than 9:45 a.m.” said Hawks head coach Jessie Leung. “Both teams went

through their regular pregame routine only to find out before we were to go on ice for warmup that the refs weren’t there.” The game eventually began, with officials, at 3:30 p.m. South Surrey’s Trevor Ayre paced the Hawks with two goals and an assist. Defenceman Matt Barberis of White Rock also had a three-point game, scoring once and adding a pair of assists. Other goal scorers were Luke Gingras and Wyatt Hicks of Langley, and Semiahmoo Minor Hockey’s Jeffrey Stewart and Shakeel Ebrahim of Surrey. Jakob Walter of Langley earned the shutout. The Hawks led 1-0 after one period and 4-0 after two. Sunday was an unusual game, with 18 goals scored and Valley West netminder Nicholas

Tallarico of Surrey earning a fighting major and game misconduct in the second period. “One of the toughest things in our league is to beat a team Saturday and wake up just as hungry to do it again on Sunday,” said Leung. “We started off well with two quick goals but I think we took our foot off the pedal. Credit to Kootenay who never quit and made us pay for our complacent play.” Down 2-0 after just six minutes of play, the Ice clawed their way back into the game over the next 35 minutes. The game was tied 6-6 early in the third period when the Hawks scored four times in four minutes to break the game open. Three players finished with five points for Valley West. Ayre scored once and added four assists, with Barberis and Gingras

assisting on five goals each. Stewart and Langley’s James Malm notched three goals and an assist each. Other goal scorers were South Surrey’s Ian Ross and Logan Webber, Christian Bosa of Langley and Cloverdale’s Daniel Chifan. The Hawks will face the Vancouver Giants next weekend, playing Saturday at home in the Langley Events Centre and Sunday at the Burnaby Winter Club. Both games face-off at 9:30 a.m. The Giants have won all eight games they have played this season, and trail only the 8-1-1 Cariboo Cougars in the standings. “I’m expecting a tough matchup that will come down to whom can capitalize on their chances,” said Leung. “I expect special teams to figure prominently in the result.”

Volleyball tournament to feature fewer teams than previous years

PAN Classic to hit court Rick Kupchuk Black Press

File photo

Last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s PAN Classic champs, from Seaquam, will not be back to defend their title this year.

The Peace Arch News Classic will have a new champion in 2014. The Seaquam Seahawks, finalists in the past three Classic tourneys â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and winners twice â&#x20AC;&#x201C; wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be back to defend their title when the 17-team field begins play tomorrow (Friday) at Elgin Park and Semiahmoo secondaries. The field is a little thinner this year, possibly due to the teacherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s strike which ended in late September and caused a little confusion in the scheduling of high school sports. But there will still be some of the provinceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best senior girls high school volleyball teams taking to the court. The Elgin Park Orcas are ranked sixth in the 4A division, while the Clayton Heights Nightriders are ranked No. 10 among 3A schools. Elgin Park is the lone senior

girls team from South Surrey competing. Also earning a top-10 ranking and competing at the Peace Arch News Classic are the Langley Christian Lightning, ranked third in the 1A category. Four Junior teams (Lord Tweedsmuir, Semiahmoo, Langley Christian and Earl Marriott Mariners) are in the field, which is split into four groups for pool play Friday. The top two teams in each group will advance to the championship round, to be played in a knockout format Saturday. The remaining nine teams will be placed into three groups of three for consolation play. Play begins at 2 p.m. and runs through to 8 p.m. at Elgin Park and Semiahmoo secondaries Friday, and 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Saturday, with two courts at each location. The gold medal game is at 6 p.m. Saturday at Semiahmoo.

Other than the dash there is still a large percentage of the interior covered in hard plastic. The upside is a well laid out interior configuration. Standard features include tilt and telescopic steering, Bluetooth connectivity, USB connection and air conditioning. The LE $1,500 upgrade package is worthwhile because it includes the very important heated front seats, larger 6.1-inch display audio with backup camera and upgraded speakers. This brings the price up to $27,835.

Drive Honda recently unveiled the new 2015 CR-V that utilizes direct injection engine technology and a slick, new continuously variable transmission. Not the case with the Toyota RAV4, it uses the same 176hp 2.5L 4-cylinder found in the last model and is matched to a 6-speed automatic. Launching from a traffic light is brisk and the noise inside the cabin is fairly low. Adjustable engine and transmission settings help the RAV4 to either use less fuel or perform better. The Eco button changes the settings of the car to improve fuel economy plus there is a small Eco light that reminds the driver when the car is being driven most efficiently. Fuel economy is rated at 10.5L/100km in the city and 8.2L on the highway. The RAV4 was a solid leader on the fuel-economy front but the new Honda CR-V now claims that crown.

Buying a used vehicle?

AskWalt p

It’s hard to remember a time when we didn’t have the RAV4 in Canada. Toyota helped develop the “cute-ute” vehicles from Japan, along with the Honda CR-V. We had never seen anything like these vehicles before but they went on to forever change the marketplace and the way a family gets around. Today the compact SUV market has become so popular it will soon exceed the compact car in terms of overall sales, which has been, for decades, the cornerstone of the Canadian marketplace. The Toyota RAV4 continues to be a sales market leader and for good reason.

Burlington, VT.- Three seems to be a number that tends to rub people the wrong way. Expressions like “Three’s a crowd” or “bad things come in threes” or someone being described as the “third wheel” don’t leave a favourable impression in people’s minds. On the flip side, there’s “third time’s a charm,” implying that the third time is the best time. Third is also a podium finish! For Mercedes-Benz, three is a magical number. Thanks to the introduction of their all-new GLA – the third installment into their compact vehicle segment – the triangle is complete. And yes, good things do come in threes. Here’s why. Of the three vehicles available in North America that are built on the same platform – the B-Class, CLA and now GLA – the GLA gives owners the ability to go on and off-road. OK, let me qualify that. Though it does come with Downhill Speed Regulation (DSR)- an off-road specific feature - it’s not meant for brutish off-roading. However, it is competent on cottage country roads or if you need to traverse into areas you couldn’t get into with a B Class or CLA. Whether you’re opting for the GLA 250 or the GLA 45 AMG, both trims come standard with MercedesBenz’s fully variable 4MATIC all-wheel drive. The GLA also marks it as the first compact premium sports utility vehicle from the German automaker. Despite its compact designation, four adults could fit comfortably inside. What’s even more impressive is the sound that comes from the AMG sports exhaust system. A system with two chrome-plated tailpipe trim elements featuring a twin- pipe design. It’s hard to imagine that’s the burble and brawn of a 2.0L, fourcylinder engine. That’s right, the 355 horsepower and 332 lb-ft of torque are created from the most powerful series production four-cylinder passenger car engine in the world. Needless to say, the engine’s pairing with the 7G-DCT 7-speed dual clutch automatic transmission is as delicious as Ben and Jerry’s Chunky Monkey ice cream; ice cream that just so happens to be made in the lovely state of Vermont. In the lesser-powered GLA 250 – which has a 2.0L, I4 turbocharged engine with 208 horsepower and 258 lbft of torque – you still have a lot of ponies to play with.

Nissan Leaf is far from a glorified golf cart The Nissan Leaf relies solely on electric power for propulsion and was the first mass production EV (electric vehicle) sold in North America. No glorified golf cart here, the Leaf can seat up to five adults and has more than enough power to be driven a highway speeds – just like a normal car. When Leaf was released as a 2011 model year vehicle Nissan already had pre-sale orders for its entire first-year production run of 20,000 units. Based on a stretched version of Nissan’s B-platform, Leaf uses a low-slung Lithium-Ion battery pack to store its electrical energy and it’s located near the centre of the vehicle, under the floor. In addition to ample rear cargo space, the battery position also helps make the Leaf more stable and more nimble than other EV’s. It’s a unique air cooled flat design of battery pack with four cells and 48 laminated modules. It weighs about 250 kg (600 lbs.) and came with an eight-year/160,000 km warranty. An 80kW AC synchronous electric motor drives the Leaf’s front wheels. It can generate 107 horsepower and 207 lb-ft of torque. Leaf has a rated driving range of 160 kilometres on a single charge, but it’s capable of going longer distances if the conditions are right. The battery pack can be charged up to 80 per cent of its full capacity within 30 minutes when connected to a dedicated DC fast charger. A level two (typical home unit) charger hooked up to a 240V outlet can do a full charge in less than eight hours. The portable (level 1) charger can be used to top-up power and connects to any (110-volt) electrical outlet. The charger

port is hidden behind a small door up front. The ultra quiet Leaf has a speaker near the front of the vehicle that makes a humming sound, at low vehicle speeds, to alert pedestrians to its presence. Like all electric motors, full power is available immediately. The (regenerative) brake pedal feel is a little different and the lack of telescopic steering may put-off some buyers. The 2012 Nissan Leaf was essentially unchanged, however, the 2013 model year brought a bunch of technology upgrades and a new lower-priced base S trim level. An upgraded 6.6KW onboard charger is capable of reducing level 2 charge time to under four hours. This Leaf also comes with an improved energy management and regenerative braking systems and improved aerodynamics. Although the Leaf has consistently received a ‘Top Safety Pick’ rating from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, the 2013 edition got a ‘poor’ rating in a new small overlap frontal crash test. This test is designed to replicate what happens when

the front corner of a vehicle collides with another vehicle or a fixed object like a tree or utility pole, at 64 km/hour. While saving money on fuel is great, most Leaf owners are more concerned about the environment and our dependency on oil. So far, general reliability appears to be very good and EV maintenance costs are typically lower than a gas engine vehicle. Limited availability on the used car market is not too surprisingly, as most owners are hanging on to their Nissan Leaf. bob.mchugh@drivewaybc.ca

The fully-electric Nissan Leaf has been on the market since 2011.

With her husband Herb she became a committed member of Ruth Morton Baptist Church, serving as a Sunday School leader, choir member, children’s choir director, camp ministry, and missions supporter. She demonstrated continued love for and interest in her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren and their visits in her later years gave her great joy and comfort.

She will be missed by her grandchildren who fondly referred to her as "junk food Nonna"... Melanie (Michael), Amanda (Joel), Danika (Doug), Joshua (Samantha), Sam, Brayden, Brenna, and Brooke. Anda was also blessed to have 8 great-grandchildren who dearly loved their "bis Nonna"; Mackenzie, Sean, Mikayla, Miles, Maclain, Miller, Elizabeth and Isabella. Anda graduated from the University of Milan in 1941. She was a professional ballet dancer in La Scala, Milan, and she also served as a Red Cross nurse until 1945.

Hallmark Carpets is your one-stop flooring store... “We sell more than just carpet!” After 36 years in business, Hallmark Carpets has seen many fads, but one thing that never changes is their ability to provide outstanding customer service and an unparalleled selection of the latest flooring products for your home or office. Offering everything from wall-to-wall carpet, laminates, sheet vinyl, vinyl planking, engineered hardwood, cork, duraceramic tile and a good selection of area rugs, Hallmark’s vast section of competitively priced floor coverings is a homeowner’s one-stop-shop dream.

Tim, Josie, Rob

ABOUT MY BUSINESS… • More than three decades of going the extra mile • Massive selection of flooring, from wall-towall carpet to hardwood to vinyl planking • Two-level, 7,000-square-foot showroom • Competitive prices • Free in-home consultations

Owned by Josie Tutte, Tim Atkinson and Rob Morrow, Hallmark offers a dedicated team of experienced, knowledgeable sales people and certified installers to help anyone find exactly what they need, at a price they can afford. “Vinyl planking is really taking off,” Josie says of current trends in flooring. “It looks good, it’s great for high-traffic areas and it works well in homes that get a lot of sunlight.” Josie says clients like the look and functionality of vinyl planking, as it’s both stylish and durable. Another recent trend is shag carpet – but fortunately, that style seems to be saved for area rugs; a shag area rug can add texture to hard surfaces, for example. No matter what you’re looking for in the way of flooring, Hallmark Carpets is there to help. Their personal service and attention to detail ensures customer satisfaction and has earned them a loyal following of repeat customers and a reputation for being the best. “That makes Tim, Rob and I feel really great,” Josie says. “We feel very fortunate to live and work in this beautiful area and are grateful to the community for its many years of support.”

SMALL BUSINESS WEEK OCT 19-25

Energy efﬁciency. Good for smaller footprints. And your bottom line. Don’t let your operating costs leave you in the cold this winter. As a small business, you probably want to focus on making money. FortisBC can help reduce your operating costs with no-cost and low-cost energy saving tips to help lower your monthly natural gas bill and reduce your environmental footprint. If you’re in the position to upgrade space and water heating systems or commercial cooking equipment, FortisBC also offers rebates on highefﬁciency models.

Small actions can add up to savings Think about cutting costs where you won’t notice it. If your business uses natural gas for heating or cooking, here are some easy tips from FortisBC to help you save energy and money. Save hot water ■ Fix leaky taps and install watersaving aerators on kitchen and bathroom faucets. ■ If running a commercial kitchen consider installing a low-ﬂow spray valve to pre-rinse dishes. These devices use approximately 50 per cent less water than standard types. ■ If you can access your hot water pipes, wrap them with foam or rubber pipe insulation to prevent heat loss.

Save heat ■ Install a programmable thermostat and program it to 20 °C when at work and no more than 17 °C when no one is there. ■ Your space could stay warm for up to an hour before the heating system needs to kick in again, so why not program your thermostat to turn down the heat an hour before you close shop. ■ If you operate a street front business, don’t leave the door open on cold days as it’ll push all your heated air out the door.

Upgrading can save you two ways When it’s time to upgrade, check out FortisBC’s rebates for highefﬁciency boilers, water heaters and cooking equipment. In addition to the rebate, you’ll experience ongoing savings on your natural gas bill with more efﬁcient appliances installed. If you’re not sure what upgrade is right for your business, consider a free consultation from a business energy advisor. It’s all part of how FortisBC is helping businesses save energy and money.

With a commitment to customer satisfaction and nearly 100 years of combined industry experience, Check Point Plumbing is proud to offer top-notch, knowledgeable service you can count on. Whether it’s a clogged sink, a leaky hot water tank or a gas fireplace on the fritz, the team at Check Point Plumbing will get the job done quickly and accurately, according to co-owner Beth Henderson. “We do the job right the first time and ensure that the customer is satisfied,” Henderson said. “We’re very proud of the work we do.” With winter upon us, it’s the time of year many homeowners think about replacing their old, inefficient furnace with a newer and more efficient model. In some respects, today’s high-efficiency furnaces, which generally start around $4,000, are better engineered than the $30,000 car you drive off the lot. With up to 95 per cent efficiency, more heat goes into your home than up the chimney with older models. Redesigned heat exchangers – complete with recovery coils – better insulation with state-of-the-art controls and energy-efficient blower motors, some with four speeds and quiet as a whisper, all provide longlasting comfort. High and low-fire gas valves combined with variable speed blowers provide the perfect amount of heat required – for warmer days, the gas valve fires on low mode and the blower cuts in on low speed; for cold days, both the gas valve and the blower operate on high to bring your home up to a set temperature, where it will stay comfortably. Also important is a good digital thermostat to replace the old mechanical style you may still have. The friendly folks at Check Point Plumbing would be more than happy to visit your home to check out your existing unit and make some recommendations. With an emphasis on providing great customer service and competitive pricing, Check Point Plumbing is your best choice for all your plumbing, heating and gas fitting needs.

Taking care of dogs is much more than a business for Megan Ferris – it’s a lifelong passion. “I have a different take on dogs,” says the owner of South Surrey’s Dog Utopia Daycare and Spa. She still recalls the pain of being separated from the dogs that were, briefly, a part of the family when she was growing up. “My dad didn’t look at dogs the way I did. If they became an inconvenience or misbehaved in any way they were gone.”

Shelby, Anastasia and Megan Ferris at Dog Utopia

It wasn’t until she was in her 20s that she was able to have her first full-time dog, Jewel, she recalls, but she found it heartbreaking that she couldn’t spend more time with her while pursuing a career in the banking industry. Came the day when she had to make the tough decision to switch paths and follow her passion, first as a dog-walker, then as the owner of her own dog day care & grooming spa. Today, Megan couldn’t be happier that she made that decision.

ABOUT MY BUSINESS… • Daycare for small to medium size dogs • Grooming for all size dogs • Training classes for all levels of obedience and all breeds • Sedation free teeth cleaning once per month

Whether your dog is at Dog Utopia for a brief pampering visit – taking advantage of a full range of services including bathing, nails, ear cleaning, de-shedding, de-matting and full grooming/ specialty cuts – or enjoying the clean, kennel-free supervised doggy daycare for small to medium sized dogs, you can rest assured that he or she will be treated just like one of the family. “I do feel like every dog who comes here is an extension of my own family – I feel like I have hundreds of dogs,” Megan says. “It’s all about focusing on what’s best for the dog; making sure they have a safe place to be and somebody looking out for their best interests.” Megan has been working with dogs for 15 years now, and she has taken care to surround herself with other dog lovers, including highly-trained and experienced groomer Anastasia Pikios and part-time assistant manager Shelby Page, as well as the training services of Jeff Rowat, whose positive reinforcement and high standard of behavior techniques result in confident and reliable companion dogs. Megan said that while grooming services are a major part of the business, the daycare is a “very integral part of what we do.” She knows all too well the additional stress of making sure that your pet is occupied, exercised and comfortable while juggling all the demands of contemporary life, work and family. “You can take some of that stress and put it on us,” she says.

ANTI-AGING CENTRE With a team of dedicated staff and a commitment to helping Peninsula residents look and feel their best with the latest revolutionary beauty treatments, it’s no wonder New Beauty Institute was recently recognized by the local business community.

Caree Ludwar

ABOUT MY BUSINESS… • Celebrating 11 years of business on the Peninsula • Cutting-edge technology offered by experienced staff • Evening and Weekend appointments available

New Beauty is celebrating 11 years in business; owner Caree Ludwar and her team at New Beauty Institute were recently presented the Business Excellence Award for the category of one to seven employees; an honour presented by the South Surrey/White Rock Chamber of Commerce. Caree is thrilled to have received such a recognition from the local business community, and wishes to thank all of her loyal clients, old and new, for their support over the past 11 years. As a cutting-edge facility offering innovative anti-aging care, New Beauty Institute strives to research the best, highly-proven tools, techniques and treatments in today’s beauty and healthcare industry. CoolSculpting is a revolutionary body-contouring treatment that precisely targets stubborn fat. CoolSculpting utilizes a precisely controlled cooling method to target, cool and eliminate fat cells in stubborn areas – such as love handles or back fat – with no downtime.

After four years of offering this amazing treatment, Caree says it is still their most highly sought-after bodycontouring procedure. “The results are undeniable to say the least.” Ultherapy skin lifting, a non-surgical procedure that targets the muscle first, then the dermis, and then the epidermis. The 3 main layers of the skin are treated and results in an immediate lift and a youthful appearance of the face which lasts for 2-4 years depending on your age and lifestyle. Ultherapy achieves undeniable skintightening and lifting in just one treatment, with no recovery time. New Beauty is offering a Fall Special of 23% off this amazing treatment. Caree, the owner of New Beauty has been trained and certified in the USA, France and Canada - this is Caree’s signature treatment. This treatment provides an uplift to the chin, jowl and brow. You can start with the jowls and when clients see it working they come back to have the eyes done, erasing years from the face. Eyes are one of the most popular areas to treat and involves lifting the hooding of the eyelid which opens up the eyes. Bat wings are another popular “trouble spot” that our clients target with this treatment. We do a free evaluation of the skin, determining a treatment plan for each individual client.

EARLY SCHOOL AND CHILDCARE CENTRE

Focused on innovative programming, research and a love of learning. “Our image of a child is somebody who is capable, intelligent and deserves respect,” says Academics preKindergarten owner and CEO Nadia Hasan. “Young children are smart. Developmental research has documented that very young children possess an active, creative, and coherent intelligence. Children know a lot more than they can show, because their understanding develops before they have the fine motor control and language necessary to express it. This is one of the reasons why integrating technology in our learning environment is key, providing another interface for learning and expression.” Academics preKindergarten, at 15300 Croydon Drive, is a program for children aged one to five, designed to give them confidence in learning even before they enter the public or private school system. “We focus on a core curriculum of math, reading and writing and science,” says Nadia. “We’re different in that we derive our curriculum from the provincial prescribed learning outcomes for children in Kindergarten to Grade 2 – coupled with the best in-class teaching methodologies from around the world.” The program also offers advanced programming to its students like Piano Lessons and soon will be integrating Karate and early Coding, she says. It’s an approach that has clearly been successful – since opening in 2010, Academics has grown to accommodate some 220 students in South Surrey, as well as a location Abbottsford, and two more, in Vancouver and Seattle, coming within a year. Academics preKindergarten was recently nominated for the 2014 Surrey Board of Trade Business Excellence award in the 11-40 employee category.

“A lot of work has gone into our success, but we have a team that is really passionate about early childhood education and what it could be. Our team focuses on research and development of new programs, like those studied in the MIT Early Childhood Cognition Lab. Our Director of Education has over 10 years experience in the field – she is our ECE backbone. I focus on the vision, and at the core what I expect as a parent and education enthusiast.” Nadia says she became involved in the business because she is a mom, but also from a perspective of having lived in the U.S., around the world and seeing first hand the exciting programs being introduced. “Being open to new ideas and learning methodologies is important to us, especially those being used as standard place in the best schools in the country and internationally.” she says. Among these is the implementation of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) toys and methodologies that familiarize young children with basic concepts important for later work in coding and rational thought, this approach encourages young girls, as well as boys, to pursue careers in those disciplines. With the focus on academics, people sometimes think this means overloading children with text and work books – but it’s not so, says Nadia. “Children learn through play, and play can have purpose; be exciting and encourage a love of learning.”

AUTO, COMMERCIAL, RESIDENTIAL GLASS Did you know that proper windshield installation is as important to your safety as seat belts, air bags and anti-lock brakes? That’s right! Today, auto glass is more than just a shield to protect the driver and occupants from wind, weather and debris. Now the windshield also keeps you and your family from being thrown from the vehicle in case of a collision and adds to the structural strength of the vehicle as a whole. Proper auto glass installation is the key to your safety. There is a right way and wrong way to install Mike and Tony auto glass. Auto glass installation requires a very strong yet flexible adhesive to bond the glass to the vehicle frame. This adhesive must have great strength to withstand the pressures put upon it in the event of a collision. The most widely used adhesive is called “automotive grade urethane.” Windshield When it comes to repair, replacement and installation, replacement and chip the government-certified technicians at Broco Auto repair Glass can do it all – car, truck and van windows; glass doors; store front glass and more!

This offer is just one example of how the Broco team go above and beyond when it comes to customer service, which has earned them a trusted reputation in the community. “We our proud of our reputation in the industry,” coowner Larisa Zenin-Sergc says. “Broco was the first auto glass shop to be approved by both the BCAA and the ICBC Glass Express program.

GOLF & TENNIS CLUB

For Frank Weber, starting the Wine Kitz store in South Surrey some 16 years ago was an extension of a long-term enthusiasm for wine-making. “I started my career as an architectural technologist, and did that for 20 years, but I felt that it was time for a change,” he says. “It was my love of wine making and wanting to go into business for myself. My wife and I investigated a number of opportunities but decided on this one.” Creating a one-stop wine-making shop catering to in-store wine makers and home vintners has been tremendously rewarding, he says, not only in pursuing his passion, but in sharing it with others. The original Wine Kitz business pioneered home wine-making kits back in the 1950s‚ and that experience backs all of its current products. “Our industry has definitely grown, people are enjoying the ability to make good wine at a reasonable price,” Frank says. While some enthusiasts go into wine-making by building their own elaborate home-based facilities, Frank estimates that 90 per cent of his business is making wine in-store for the customer. That doesn’t mean there isn’t plenty of customer input into the process, including choosing from over 200 different varieties of juices and juice blends, to determining the style of wine and whether barrel aging is desired. “There is a sense of accomplishment every time a customer makes a batch,” Frank says, adding that they will often explore many different styles from around the world before finally hitting on one or two favourites. Frank and his Wine Kitz staff are proud to present the new Passport Series of 2015 Limited Edition Wines, inviting customer to explore the exotic and uncover the unique flavours and aromas of Petit Verdot from Washington’s Yakima Valley, Pinot Gris from Oregon’s Willamette Valley, Brunello Style from Italy’s Montalcino, Pinot Noir from California’s Sonoma Valley and Volcanic Red from Chile’s Curico Valley. “Don’t miss out on these five lush, exclusive wines from some of the world’s most celebrated wine-growing regions,” Frank says. “Reserve your 2015 Passport Series wines soon before they’re gone!”

“It doesn’t matter what season it is, there’s always something happening at the club,” says Hazelmere general manager Frank Fourchalk says. Hazelmere Golf & Tennis Club has been a tradition with White Rock and South Surrey families since the facility first opened in 1962 – and no-one knows that better than Frank. It was the place where he came to celebrate special occasions when he was a child, where he started in the business as a busboy in 1998 (working his way up to general manager not only of Hazelmere but also Belmont Golf Course in Langley), where he met and married his wife, and where they now bring their own children. Hazelmere has long been appreciated by a loyal clientele of members and regular customers, but Frank says he still finds some people are confused by the term ‘club.’ “We’re a public golf course that also has members – but we’re open to the public and family-friendly in all our environments, and in the lounge as well,” he says. Located at 18150 8 Ave., the club is home to two dining destinations – The Dining Room – renowned for its awardwinning Sunday brunch – and the more casual dining experience of the West Coast Grill. One of the most elegant, spacious facilities of its kind, the clubhouse offers a full range of facilities – including the large Panorama Room, the luxurious Garden Room and the comfy Fireside Lounge – for those planning special occasions ranging all the way from weddings and conferences to holiday office parties and golf tournaments. Even though golf season is winding down, the course – known as one of the finest in the province – is still a major focal point of the operation. “It’s very playable through the winter,” Frank said, adding that the club continues to work on and perfect the course with continually upgraded drainage, continuing the work started with the major rebuild from 1998 to 2003. “We used to have the reputation for being a muddy golf course – that’s definitely changed,” he says. As golf tapers off with colder weather, so tennis picks up, he adds – the facility offers four indoor tennis courts and a full teaching staff, providing a perfect refuge from the elements and a chance to work on the serve during the winter months. But as Christmas approaches, thoughts turn to holiday celebrations, and Hazelmere is gearing up for the return of its popular Nutcracker Buffet, Monday through Friday starting at the beginning of December, and the Sunday brunch with Santa and Mrs. Claus, also running from the beginning of December until Christmas. And it’s not too early to think about making reservation’s for Hazelmere’s New Year’s Eve celebrations, Frank says – tickets always sell out early for this club tradition.

WHALE TALE

Ethan Ren & Eric Shang

ABOUT MY BUSINESS… • We’re known for our heart-smart baked Fish & Chips • All food is made fresh on-site • Try our sushi chef’s signature line of sushi rolls

BOUTIQUE

While there’s no shortage of fish and chip eateries in White Rock, Whale’sTale is making a big splash by serving up the traditional beach fare with a healthy twist. Since taking over the 18-year-old businesses three years ago, Eric Shang has added heart-smart baked fish and chips to the extensive menu of soups, salads, burgers, ice cream and more for dine in or take out. “Nothing is made in bulk and microwaved... we have a lot of health-conscious customers coming in for our food,” said Shang, who prides himself on their signature Japanese-style fish and chips. “The fish is still moist on the inside while the light batter makes it crispy on the outside.” Even the French fries aren’t deep fried, he notes. “We bake the fries in the hot air machine that does not require oil at all, but the fries still come out crispy and flavourful.” Another exciting addition to this popular eatery is Sushi Chef Ethan Ren. “Ethan comes from seven years of training in Japan and has worked at many restaurants before,” said Shang, noting that he has created a line of special rolls. “You must try his toro tataki — it’s slightly pan seared toro served with chef’s secret sauce.You’ll also love the Angel’s Roll — a delicious dessert for both sushi and ice cream lovers. It’s sweet potato tempura wrapped in sushi rice and topped with a scoop of ice cream.These are not served anywhere else and are not on our to-go menu. We will have more special chef creations along the way.” Since taking over the restaurant, Shang has enjoyed getting to know his customers — many have even become good friends. “We treat our customers like family and always try our best to satisfy their needs,” he said. Taking his customers health and happiness to heart, Whale’s Tale holds their standards to the highest level possible. “We only serve good, fresh, healthy food that’s deserving of the money customer’s pay,” said Shang matter-of-factly. “By the end of the day, everything that’s not used and cannot be kept overnight is taken home for dinner or thrown away. We will not cheat our customers.” Whale’sTale is located at 15527 Marine Dr. in White Rock. For more information, call 604-560-1208.

Clients of Physiomoves in Ocean Park are well aware of the clinic’s commitment to excellence in assessing, treating and preventing injuries – using current research and proven treatment approaches to tailor treatment to each individual’s needs. The clinic has just added three new staff members to complement and enhance the treatment available, ownermanager Tyler Dumont says. “I’m really happy with the therapists we’ve recruited to the team,” he says. “They’re unique expertise and approachable dispositions are a welcome addition to our great Ocean Park team.” Kathy Miller specializes in urinary incontinence and pelvic floor dysfunction. Keenly interested in women’s health during her training, she counts herself fortunate to have worked alongside the physiotherapists at BC Women’s Hospital. Following postgraduate work and a certificate in continence and pelvic floor re-education, she also had the opportunity to work at the Jim Pattison Outpatient Care and Surgical Centre. “We’re pleased with the emphasis on women’s health that Kathy will provide,” says Tyler. Jeff Rolland grew up in Surrey playing, refereeing and coaching baseball, box lacrosse, field lacrosse and hockey. Involved in elite levels of hockey training for the last four years, he is currently head trainer for the Greater Vancouver Canadians Major Midget Hockey Team, and has a keen interest in concussion rehabilitation and nutrition, as well as providing seminars to sports teams on injury prevention. “If you have a lacrosse injury or a hockey injury, Jeff’s the guy to see,” says Tyler.

BUSINESS INSURANCE White Rock Pharmacy is a locally owned and operated full service pharmacy that prides itself on the three C’s: customer service, convenience and community. Dinesh Chowhan opened the business back in February, taking over the Medicine Guru. Unlike its predecessor that was only open for four hours a day, White Rock Pharmacy is open seven days a week from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Mon. to Fri. and 10 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. Sat., closed Sun. The White Rock Pharmacy team is comprised of talented individuals whose goal is to better the health and wellness of their clients. “We go above and beyond to provide one-on-one time with our patients to help them achieve their medication goals,” noted Chowhan, of his team that provides a complete range of pharmacy services, including prescription and non-prescription medications, health and wellness information, counseling, clinics and programs and injections (such as flu shots). “Getting to know my clients is one of my favourite aspects of being a pharmacist and entrepreneur here in the White Rock community.” When it came to selecting a location to run his own pharmacy, White Rock just seemed like the right fit, said Chowhan. “It’s just such a welcoming and friendly community . We’ been open less than a year, but have already met so many wonderful people here. There’s no better place to run your own business!” And with the majority of customers being seniors, Chowhan feels it’s important to honour their business by offering a special discount and delivery service free of charge. “In addition to our free prescription delivery service, we give a 10 per cent discount to our senior customers,” he said. And with the dreaded cold and flu season just around the corner, White Rock Pharmacy is your one-stop shop for relief and prevention. Next month, the pharmacy will be offering flu shots. “It’s best to get immunized than react to any outbreaks of the flu,” said Chowhan.

NEIGHBOURHOOD PUB The Sandpiper Pub has been a cornerstone of White Rock’s east beach scene for more than 30 years, combining a classic neighborhood pub feel, a relaxed atmosphere and friendly staff with a panoramic ocean view from virtually every table. But while the pub continues to cater to long-time regulars with such classic pub fare as traditional fish and chips, owner Judy Baker is thrilled over many new changes on the horizon. Foremost among them is a completely revamped menu starting this month, created by Red Seal certified chef James Reder, which will highlight West Coast cuisine including more fish dishes, noodle bowls, rice bowls, jambalayas and a different range of sandwiches and appetizers. Another change is new family-friendly licensing – parents can now bring children in every day from Sunday through Thursday until 10 p.m., and up to 8 p.m. Friday and Saturday – a kids menu is also being offered – while family karaoke every Wednesday night is also on the drawing board. And the pub also features a “happy hour” with halfprice specials every day from 3 to 6 p.m. and from 9 to 11 p.m. every night except Fridays and Saturdays. “It’s very exciting,” Judy says. “It’s going to take us in a whole new direction, and make us more competitive with a lot of other food establishments.” The Sandpiper’s popular Halloween Party returns Oct. 31, featuring karaoke, food and drink specials and “thousands of dollars worth of prizes” Baker says – including a wooden box cooler filled with product worth $600 and more great prizes! The Sandpiper can always be booked for birthday or anniversary parties, and patrons who bring in parking receipts will be reimbursed by the pub. Don’t forget that the Sandpiper serves breakfast every Saturday and Sunday until 3 p.m. (for late risers) and the Sandpiper Liquor store at 1235 Johnston Rd. (near Five Corners) is open 10 a.m. to 11 p.m. every day of the year.

TAX AND ACCOUNTING SERVICES For more than 80 years, the Murray family has been selling vehicles to families throughout Canada.

Their slogan, “Call ‘Mee’ First,” has inspired people to do just that. Clients are calling Dianne Mee & Associates Inc. for professional tax and accounting services in a timely, flexible manner.

It started with just one dealership in a small town in Manitoba and has grown to become the largest family owned and operated General Motors dealer group in the country, with 29 dealerships -- including the GM, Chrysler, Mazda, Hyundai, Honda & Volkswagen brands. Cedric Gagne

Dianne Mee operates the recently expanded firm, and offers a full range of accounting and bookkeeping services, including corporate and personal tax returns.

While various dealerships have popped up on the Peninsula over the years, Murray Hyundai continues to stand out in the crowd. “The line-up at Hyundai has been worked on from the ground up and integrates new technology with the Hyundai standards of being fuel-efficient and the best value for the money,” said general manager Cedric Gagne.

And it’s not just the impressive fleet of fuel-efficient, sleek and affordable vehicles that has put them on the map -- it’s the people who are at the heart of this local business. “Here at Murray Hyundai, we want to provide a superior sales and service experience for customers who are looking for reliable and cost-effective transportation,” said Gagne. “We want it to be a worry-free, hassle-free experience.”

While the product does bring people in, but it’s the knowledgeable sales staff who helps make the purchase process a smooth one from start-to-finish, notes Gagne. “We are not high-pressure people. We just want to help people with what they’re looking for. If a customer wants us to help them with their research, we want to help them do that at their speed. If they want to take it slowly, we’re more than happy to do that.”

“We want children to discover that math can actually be fun,” says Crystal Lai director of Spirit of Math’s new campus in South Surrey. “It’s informative, it stretches your abilities and it’s involved in every aspect of life, from auto-mechanics to drawing and painting to medicine and engineering to building and cooking.” Spirit of Math – a program already successfully established in Ontario, and with a campus in Richmond and a franchise in Vancouver – began its South Surrey operation only in September of this year. Crystal describes it as “an after-school school” for highperforming students from Grade 1 to Grade 8 (plans are to extend it up to Grade 11, as it runs in other campuses, over the next year). The program currently runs on Wednesday nights from 4:45 to 8 p.m. at the premises of Academics preKindergarten, at Unit 100, 15300 Croydon Dr. Crystal says that ‘high-performing’ students are typically “those students who are striving for more – they’re to the right of the bell curve. We help them reach the next level, to reach their full potential.” They’re also usually children of high-performing parents, she added, who understand the importance of mathematics skills as a base for stimulating and rewarding careers. Based on the pioneering work of teacher Charles Ledger, who had a much higher than usual proportion of higherachieving students during the 20 years he taught at Zion Heights Junior High School in North York, Ontario, the Spirit of Math program was developed with his wife Gwen and their daughter Kim Langen, and has been run by Kim since the corporation passed to her in 2002. Crystal says that while Spirit of Math works with the same mathematics principles taught in school – “but we would take a topic and go deeper and broader with it, and help make the math material stick.” The four key elements of the program are drills that work on building confidence, problem solving that encourages research and experimentation, a core program including number theory and a focus on co-operative learning. “We involve students in group projects in which they learn from each other and from asking questions,” adds Crystal, who says that numerous testimonials from children enrolled in Spirit of Math programs provide positive proof that math can be fun. “Our mission statement is to promote co-operation, inspire confidence and release the genius in every child.”

According to Gagne, there is no better time to take a look at the new 2015 models at Murray Hyundai. He encourages anyone in the market for a new vehicle to swing by the dealership today and speak with a sales associate about a test drive of the 2015 Genesis or 2015 Sonata. “Hyundai always has a great promotion,” said Gagne. “Until the end of October, you can finance a vehicle for zero per cent at 84 months -- you also get five per cent cash back on the car. Isn’t that a crazy deal?

Ocean Park Chiropractic has recently become Ocean Park Chiropractic & Sports Injuries Clinic. Dr. Scott Fedyshen, who was raised in Ocean Park, purchased the clinic from Dr. Brian Whitehead back in August 2014. Scott was raised in Ocean Park and he is excited to bring his movement and exercise based Chiropractic approach to the community. Scott Says that there has been many challenges with purchasing a clinic but Dr. Whitehead has been very helpful creating a smooth transition. Dr. Whitehead will also continue to work at the clinic Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday mornings from 8:30 – 1:30. Dr. Fedyshen has a unique approach to Chiropractic and sports injuries after working for renowned sports chiropractor Dr. Jeff Cubos for the past two years in Spruce Grove Alberta. Scott integrates various assessment and treatment techniques from all manual therapies in order to provide his patients with an accurate diagnosis and optimal treatment results. Scott’s active approach to care teaches his patients why their injuries happened, how to fix them, and how to prevent reoccurrences. Having a focus on sports injuries does not mean that Dr. Fedyshen only treats athletes. He says, everyone can benefit from an active approach to care, as our bodies are all governed by the same rules. “Besides reliving symptoms, my real job is to educate my patients and empower them to take control of their own health.” It is very rewarding when you help a patient get better and they realize they did most of the work.” This follows Ocean Park Chiropractic & Sports Injuries Clinic’s mission statement of creating a healthy community though movement, education, and empowerment. “My approach to care is based on current scientific evidence and it gets results. My goal is to get patients better quickly and give them the tools to preventing re-occurrences.” We treat all injuries and conditions but we most commonly treat: • Back and neck pain • Headaches • TMJ disorders • Extremity injuries (shoulder, elbow, wrist, hip, knee, ankle) • Sports injuries • WCB/ICBC claims As the end of the year approaches and life gets busy, we must remember to take care of ourselves. If you have an injuries or conditions you would like looked at , now is the time to come in and use your remaining benefits for the year. We direct bill extended medical providers and most people have coverage for Chiropractic and massage therapy.

Custom Interiors

For about half of what it costs to buy new, Cartridge World – the world’s fastest growing ink refilling retailer – can refill or remanufacture 95 per cent of inkjet and laser toner cartridges, using top-quality, brand-specific ink and toners. Operating more than 1,400 locations in 50 countries, Cartridge World keeps money IN your pocket and hundreds of millions of empty printer cartridges OUT of landfills every year. This proactive solution to waste reduction is a win-win for customers, entrepreneurs and the environment. Frequently Asked Questions:

Rob Fisher

Q: Is there a risk to using a refilled cartridge?

ABOUT MY BUSINESS…

Not at all! There should be no difference in the print quality after the cartridge is refilled. Our 100% money back satisfaction guarantee is a sign of our confidence and removes any risk from you trying our services.

• Voted #1 in the category of toner replacement services by Entrepreneur Magazine

Q: How much money will I save by refilling?

Products and Services: • High-quality ink and toner refills for the most popular brands • Genuine and compatible ink and toner • Cartridges for all printers, copiers, postage meters and fax machines • Printer, copier and fax repair • Trained expert technicians • 100% satisfaction guaranteed!

Your savings may vary depending on your printer. As a rule of thumb, you can expect to save up to 50 per cent on refills at Cartridge World, compared to the cost of a brand new cartridge. In fact, Peninsula businesses and residents are saving hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars every year by making the switch. In addition to savings, Cartridge World also offers their customers the ability to make a choice regarding waste reduction and the environment. Q: Will using refilled cartridges void the printer manufacturer’s warranty? No. The Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act prohibits the printer manufacturer from voiding the warranty. Printer manufacturers will almost always advise you against refilling because they want you to keep buying their expensive replacement cartridges and accessories. You can feel confident that cartridges sold, refilled or remanufactured by Cartridge World will meet or exceed your expectations. Our own warranty also extends to your printer on any valid claim!

The Curtain Call Custom Interiors is well known for its unique custom window coverings – but there so much more the company’s team contributes in creating custom interiors that bring elegance and character to any room. Joan Walker emphasizes thatThe Curtain Call specializes in providing a total package of services in creating a decor for each client. “We supply everything from the initial concept to the completion of the project,” she says. “That goes from putting the original proposal together to overseeing all of the materials and contractors.” “We’re very hands-on, very involved, with great attention to detail – we pride ourselves on that.” That applies to every stage of the project. From the kitchen, to the bathroom to the furniture, flooring and accessories. “There are design basics we always look at – the form and function of what’s needed.” “But you always want to add a twist – something creative, something different, a conversation piece. I always like a bit of a twist in the design; especially with patterns, colours, fabrics and textures. Maybe using different kinds of woods to make it something unusual and unique.” Walker and her skilled team have been using their talents to transform homes into beautiful living places across the Peninsula for two decades. Her involvement in her long-time home community is as well known as her vision, style and expertise in every aspect of interior design. A passionate believer in giving back, as a past director and president of the Peninsula Community Foundation, which provides financial assistance to a number of worthy local organizations and initiatives. Joan has also been honoured as a Business Person of the Year by the Surrey-White Rock Chamber of Commerce.

Q: Is cartridge refilling and remanufacturing the only service Cartridge World provides? No. Cartridge World is a one-stop shop!

“We must be doing something right!” says Rob Fisher, owner of the Brewing Experience in South Surrey. “We’ve had an upswing of former customers coming back.” The company has been valued for 22 years for its expertise in guiding newcomers through the satisfying process of brewing their own beer, or in discovering the thrill of creating their own wine. ”But the return of past customers is an added bonus – and a significant endorsement”, says Rob, who joined the team as co-owner in 2012, with 20 years of wholesale management experience, and became full owner in January 2013. “They rely on us – they know we have a quality product. They’ve heard we had a change of management, they’ve heard we’ve done renovations. They’ve realized we’re centrally located and we’ve got good parking.” Undoubtedly part of the buzz is the return of former employee Barb Borden full-time as of September of this year. “She’s got great expertise in beer-making, she lives in South Surrey and she’s well-known and very much valued by customers,” Rob says “And former owner John Elliott is still here part time for a few hours each day!.” Other pluses are a facility that, in addition to offering step-by-step guidance in brewing beer, offers award-winning Spagnol’s wine kits (with a choice of four, six, or eight-week fermentation times), plus everything you need to create your own ice wine, ports, coolers, ciders and sparkling wine. For the Do It Yourself at home Wine Maker and Beer Maker, they can come into our store and purchase wine & beer kits to take home at a reasonable price. If its not in stock we will order it in. Being Spagnol’s largest customer in the lower mainland, we order every Monday. Physical aspects of the plant are also impressive, including a 4,000 square-foot production facility, eight European 100-litre kettles for making beer, a heated wine fermentation room, an on-site CO2 system for carbonating beer, wine, ciders and coolers, and a large fridge and freezer that ensure correct processing of all products before filtering and bottling. “But one of the great highlights of the business”, Rob said, is getting to know all the loyal customers – some of whom travel in from as far afield as North Vancouver and Mission – and hearing their stories of brewing and wine-making over the years at The Brewing Experience. “I’m still enjoying that!” says Rob. The Brewing Experience is open Monday to Friday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. And check out the company’s website (www.brewingexperience.ca) for monthly promotions and giveaways.

SHIRAZ RUGS

Mohammed Eill

ABOUT MY BUSINESS… • Hand-made rugs • Exceptional rugs value at affordable prices

PODIATRIST

Mohammed Eill has been importing and selling hand-made rugs in Vancouver for the past 25 years. While trained as computer software engineer, he came from a rug-weaving family from the city of Qum, renowned across the world as for premium handmade area rugs. Clients who visited his gallery over the last quarter-century have come to know Mohammed as a very humble man, who has been happy introducing them to the most beautiful pieces available. But his courageous decision to begin a new journey in life has led to the closing out of his Granville Street store. Within a very short period of announcing his close-out sale there, he sold out half of his inventory at prices that were hard to ignore. Now White Rock and South Surrey will have a chance to gain exceptional rug values as he brings his liquidation sale of remaining inventory to the Peninsula for seven weeks only (until the beginning of December). Mohammed says he is enjoying being able to offer local residents a chance to take a piece of history home – but most of all, he says, he is enjoying the opportunity to make some of the world’s most beautiful rugs available to more people by offering them at affordable prices.

Dr. Howard Green

Taking care of your health should be a top priority. But sometimes, people forget about one of the most used parts of their body: their feet. Everyday, people put their feet through various stresses and positions, making them vulnerable to injury or pain. For over 20 years, podiatrist Dr. Howard Green has been helping people get back on their feet – literally – with his expertise and personalized care. The longtime Peninsula resident has a slew of credentials – including holding the position as the Head of the Department of Podiatry at Vancouver General Hospital and UBC, as well as the current President of the British Columbia Podiatric Medical Association. But it’s not just the many prestigious titles he holds. Dr. Green is a full-scope podiatrist, meaning he can look after, diagnose and treat all foot-health related issues. From geriatric routine foot care to more complex procedures, such as surgical correction of foot deformities or abnormalities – Dr. Green’s vast experience allows him to help people with all footrelated ailments. In 2008, Dr. Green was one of the first Canadian podiatrists to be certified as a Master Surgeon in the HyProCure procedure – a quick, simple in-office procedure that dramatically and permanently corrects flat-foot deformities in children and adults, with a high success rate. He is also one of the few Canadian podiatrists with a state-of-the-art surgical suite in his office, meaning surgical procedures can be done under a local anesthetic, easily and with minimal health risks to patients. Most importantly, Dr. Green, while providing one-onecare, shares his knowledge with patients, educating them on the effect feet have on the whole body. With a strong focus on long-term results and patienteducation, you can feel safe putting your feet into his hands.

Mareth Hunter is very happy to have been serving the White Rock and South Surrey community continuously for 25 years with Mareth’s Hair Studio (she formally celebrated the anniversary two months ago).

Ayreborn Audio/Video Inc. in South Surrey – admired for its exceptional selection and friendly, knowledgeable staff – is a must-visit store for all your electronics needs.

Her hairdressing career in White Rock began even earlier. Trained in her native Wales, and a member of the British Hairdressing Council, she started work as a stylist in White Rock in 1980, and opened her first salon in the city in 1984.

As the only independent store of its kind in the White Rock/Surrey/Delta/Langley area, Ayreborn provides a huge selection of home automation products, custom wiring and installation, custom home theaters, multi-room audio and video, flatpanel televisions and audio/video furniture.

After a two-year stint as an instructor at the Richmond School of Hairdressing, she returned to this community to open a new salon in 1989.

Mareth Hunter

ABOUT MY BUSINESS… • Free Consultation • Men’s Styling • Body Waves • Perms • Highlights • Low Lights • Reverse Foiling • Colouring • Ombre

Since then, Mareth and her staff have built a loyal clientele who rely on the salon’s friendly, experienced, quality service – including everything from body perms, highlights, lowlights, colouring, to hair and scalp treatments and mens hairstyling – and high-end products. The salon also offers a wig service that has helped many cancer patients through their chemotherapy treatments, and Mareth said she treasures the many strong and brave people she has met through that venture. In all, she looks back on the past 25 years in White Rock with a great deal of happiness – and amazement at how the city has grown – and looks forward to meeting new clients daily.

“This is the best community ever to get to know people,” she says. “I’ve been so fortunate to find so many friends through my business. I still have people coming to me who I met at my first salon in 1984. It’s a fantastic community to be in, for sure. “

“The shop is not me – it takes a team to make it work,” she says. “People come and go in this business but my staff members have stayed a fair amount of time – they’re very loyal. One started with me back in 1984 and although she worked other places she has been back with me for seven years. Another has been with me for the past 23 years.

CUSTOM BLINDS and WINDOW COVERINGS David and Tara Anderson – owners of the Budget Blinds franchise in Delta for the past six years – acquired the South Surrey franchise from the previous owner a year ago. Since then, they’ve established a new storefront showroom (at Unit 7, 2320 King George Blvd.), in partnership with Shell Busey’s HouseSmart Home Services Referral Network, with a market that covers all of Surrey and Delta. It’s a showcase for a selection of quality products they offer from different manufacturers – as David says, “everything from simple blinds and draperies to bedding, and everything in between.” But the key to the business’ success, he says, is that it’s actually a custom shop-at-home service, in which they go to clients’ homes to ensure not only that that the products fit their space, but also their individual tastes and lifestyle. At the showroom, Shell, his daughter Monica, and two Budget Blinds representatives are available to guide customers through a broad sampling of products and take appointments for in-home consultations. “If they like what they see there, they can book an appointment with us,” David says. It’s inevitably better to base purchases on a home visit, he adds – rather than simply coming into the showroom armed with window measurements and some general ideas about colours. There’s no substitute for seeing the actual space and reviewing samples with the clients in light of existing colours and decor, he says. “Window coverings are all part of the decorating process – they’re a statement about who you are and what you want your room to look like.” Customers seeking Budget Blinds’ advice on window treatments may also be looking at new bedding or room accents, and David and Tara are happy to work with them in selecting from a wide range of products, often picking up a colour from the draperies to harmonize with the bedding and compliment the overall scheme. “We do virtually anything to do with fabrics,” David says. “The name is a little bit misleading – when people hear Budget Blinds they’re thinking ‘cheap blinds,’ he laughs. “They’re wowed by the selection we have – people are amazed and pleasantly surprised.”

“Once you become an Ayreborn customer, we will always be there for you,” Bryan said. “From the moment you walk through our doors, our goal is to make everything simple and easy.”

With top-of-the-line, competitively priced brands including Samsung, Marantz, Cambridge Audio, Control4, Sonos, Sharp Aquos, Yamaha and more, there’s something for everyone at this one-stop electronics shop.

“It’s a joy to come to work every day.”

Hair Studio

Owner Bryan Ayres and his highly trained staff make it their priority to take care of every detail large and small for customers, from designing, building and installing a custom home-theatre system to providing reliable after-care services should you need further assistance with your purchase.

It’s never too early to start thinking about your holiday shopping list – if you have an electronics lover to buy for this year, come visit Bryan and his team; they’ll be happy to show you the latest and greatest in must-have electronics this holiday season.

Mareth gives full credit to a great staff for the success of her studio over the years.

welcome and at home. “We’ll have the same great services and friendly environment,” said Tarek of the 1,050 square-foot modern yet homey shop that offers competitive prices. “Over the years, I’ve had the chance to meet some great people as a barber – many have even become great friends!” For Tarek, being a barber isn’t just a job, it’s clearly his passion. “I love everything about it – the job itself the daily challenges, being able to see someone feel better about themselves after having a nice hair cut and the people I meet. There’s really no other job like it.” “Our goal is to help you achieve the look you want and present the best customer service possible.” Taking care of the salon side of the business are two talented Stylist – Ashley and Nicole. “They’re both great at what they do and a lot of fun to work with,” said Tarek of Nicole, who has over 14 years of experience and specializes in senior’s haircare and styling.

of Hugh & McKinnon Realty

n 1909, Surrey Pioneer Edwin Carncross, realizing the future potential of the area, established a Real Estate and Insurance Company in Cloverdale at 176 Street and Highway 10. The population of Surrey was only 1,291 and Vancouver’s 78,900. By 1909 the population of the Semiahmoo First Nations had dropped to just 38 since the Spanish arrived in Boundary Bay in 1790. Edwin Carncross and his family came to Surrey in 1888, homesteading 160 acres at Brown and State Street which is now 32 Avenue and 160 Street. Edwin’s brother Charles and his wife Mary moved to Surrey in 1897. As well as farming, Charles was a member of Surrey Council from 1898-1899, was elected Reeve in 1901 and became a Notary Public in 1917. 1909 also saw the opening of Surrey’s first bank when the Bank of Montreal opened just a few doors down from Carncross & Co. Back in Montreal, the Montreal Canadiens played their first game January 5, 1909 beating the Colbalt Silver Kings 7-6 in overtime before a crowd of 3,000 in the Jubilee Rink. Just a few years later in 1911, The Vancouver Millionaires would win the Stanley Cup. In 1916 while war raged in Europe, Charles sold his farm and joined Edwin at Carncross and Co., later that year Edwin moved to California due to ill health. In 1917 after serving in the Royal Canadian Flying Corps in WW1, Fabian Hugh joined the Company in the real estate business and the company was renamed to Carncross & Hugh. Originally a Notary Public from Ontario, Fabian received his Notary Public Seal for the province of B.C. in 1919 and was appointed SecretaryCollector for Surrey in 1921. When Charles Carncross retired from the firm in 1929, Fabian was left to run the business with Frank McKinnon who had joined the firm in 1926. For the next 10 years the two were the entire staff carrying the real estate, insurance, conveyance and dyking work, each earning $55 per month. In 1936, during the Great Depression, high school student Alan Davidson was hired as an office clerk, working in the mornings before school and on Saturdays, taking care of such chores as dusting, sweeping and learning to type. After serving in the Canadian Air Force during World War II, Davidson returned to

the firm in 1945 where he was offered a 30 per cent partnership, and was put in charge of the insurance branch. In the early 1950s, the name was officially changed to Hugh & McKinnon Ltd, a few years before Fabian Hugh retired in 1954. The 1960s and 1970s saw a great deal of expansion with branch offices opening in White Rock in 1960, Vancouver in 1961, North Surrey in 1962 and Langley in 1969. The White Rock branch first opened in 1960, and as the company continued to grow, was relocated to just south of North Bluff and Johnston Roads, across from the Central Plaza Shopping Centre in 1968. In 1978 the company was sold to Richards and Melling Inc, the White Rock office was purchased by Bill Sutherland and relocated to the corner of 140 Street and 16 Avenue in South Surrey, where it remains to this day. Hugh & McKinnon became a real estate sales and property management company, no longer involved in insurance brokerage. In 1990, Bruce Robinson and Greg Long took over the company after Larry Colby’s retirement. Larry had acquired Bill Sutherlands interests in 1988 . Greg Long’s untimely passing in 2013 has left the company in the hands of a very capable group of professional Real Estate Salespeople, Property Managers and Finance and Accounting professionals that are guiding the firms continued growth. Today the company provides management services to the owners of over 4,000 Condominium units, 300 rental properties and numerous commercial properties. The company has ownership interests in shopping centres in Walnut Grove, Brentwood Bay, Courtenay and residential projects in West Kelowna. Hugh & McKinnon’s Real Estate sales group markets property to local, national and international buyers. Our professional real estate sales people are capable of informed consultation on any type of property from first time investments to the largest estates. Through diversifying its business ventures, Hugh & McKinnon has managed to stay stable and successful through the great depression; world wars and financial crisis that have made many companies disappear. Regardless of your real estate or investment needs, with 105 years serving the Fraser Valley community Hugh & McKinnon has the experience and expertise you deserve.

Reforms unveiled to ease container hauling strife

Truckers get enforced pay, smaller fleet Jeff Nagel Black Press

The number of container truckers licensed to serve Port Metro Vancouver will be slashed and those who survive are being promised higher enforced pay as part of reforms to cement labour stability and avoid any new strike disrupting trade. B.C. Transportation Minister Todd Stone said last week that the province will legislate rates for container truckers, retroactively, and indicated the current number of 2,000 licensed trucks could drop to about 1,500. Too many trucks now chase too few loads, according to Port Metro Vancouver planning vice-president Peter Xotta, causing “intense competition” between firms, insufficient work for truckers and undercutting on agreed rates. Reducing the number of licensed operators is expected to create a better balance. A 28-day strike by container truckers last spring ended on government promises of a range of improvements, including minimum rates and compensation for long waits at terminals. But unionized truckers had warned over the summer that another strike was possible without enforcement of the rate floor to prevent undercutting by some trucking companies. Truckers now licensed to haul containers in and out of container terminals will be invited by Port Metro Vancouver to apply for new licences with mandatory performance bonds, damage deposits, driver sponsorship agreements and licence charges. Port officials aren’t yet saying how they’ll decide who is in and who is out of the new licence system. B.C. Trucking Association president and CEO Louise Yako said the new requirements aim to encourage responsible conduct and deter marginal operators who make the business more volatile. “They want to set the financial barriers high enough that it reduces the likelihood that trucking companies are going to have a race to the bottom by reducing their rates and thereby reducing compensation to drivers,” Yako said. Most BCTA members would much prefer unrestricted competition, she said. But Yako said repeated strikes have spurred the senior governments to deviate from national policy and regulate for economic stability, not just safety and the environment. “I think there is grudging acceptance that

A cut in the number of container trucks licensed to serve Port Metro Vancouver is expected to help stabilize the drayage business. a free and competitive marketplace at this time is not feasible for the sector.” The provincial and federal governments have also invested billions in port and transportation infrastructure in Metro Vancouver to assure reliable goods movement through the port, which handles 130 million tonnes of cargo a year. How well the reforms work will ride heavily on the implementation of recommendations tabled by consultants Vince Ready and Corinn Bell, she said.

Not all trucking firms are expected to join the new system, which is to be up and running by Feb. 1. Yako predicted pure drayage companies – that only haul from container terminals – will mostly seek new licences while many hybrid operators will voluntarily exit and shift their trucks to serve other business lines. Trucking companies are being promised aid during the transition to the new system, which will include the creation of a new

Container Trucking Commissioner to oversee future licensing. Other reforms introduced this year have included night openings of terminals to cut congestion and installation of GPS units in all trucks to improve efficiency and record excessive waits. Finding a viable fix for the industry has been complex, in part because of the variety of different union and non-union operations, some paid on varying hourly rates, while others are paid by trip.

Langley forum hosted by Urban Development Institute

Mayors talk seniors, transit Jeff Nagel Black Press

Housing and transit issues dominated a forum of Fraser Valley mayors organized by the Urban Development Institute earlier this month In Langley. The Oct. 9 panel discussion featured eight mayors from Surrey to Chilliwack – most of them running for re-election – and was moderated by Vancouver real estate consultant Michael Geller. Abbotsford Mayor Bruce Banman said neighbourhood design needs to take into account the growing numbers of seniors who are used to driving their cars but may be vulnerable to suddenly losing their licence. “The loss of that independence can literally train wreck them,” Banman said. “Their life as they know it can change in a heartbeat.” Developers can help by finding ways to provide housing seniors want within walking distance of the shopping and services they need, he added. Chilliwack Mayor Sharon Gaetz also urged developers to design senior-friendly housing that fits into complete, walkable neighbourhoods. “I think we have to get past the idea of these gated communities – I can’t stand them,” Gaetz said. “It really isolates people from each other and lets them live in an artificial world. That may feel more secure to them. But a healthy community has integrated races, people and ages.” Mayors were repeatedly asked how cities can make housing more affordable in the Lower Mainland. Langley Township Mayor Jack Froese said many Fraser Valley communities – including his – need to find ways to get more rental homes on the market. “Not everybody wants to own a house,” he said. The audience included many major development and home construction firms. Froese said developers want to build as efficiently and profitably as possible, but noted municipalities must plan carefully with an eye to the future. Future residential development in Langley’s Brookswood area will be controversial, he said, but called it a logical fit with development just to the west in Surrey, where the Campbell Heights industrial park is increasingly a magnet for jobs. Geller said he’s “astounded” at the number of young people in the region who don’t have driver’s licences or opt for car co-op services instead of owning

their own vehicle, in part to save money for a home. But Banman said it makes no sense to reduce parking requirements, particularly in singlefamily residential neighbourhoods, until adequate transit is available. Providing high-quality transit in the Lower Mainland shouldn’t be that hard, he said, compared to other metropolitan areas that sprawl in all directions. “We basically go east and west,” Banman said. “Don’t tell me we can’t figure out how to move people east and west in a 100mile corridor.” Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts, who is leaving civic politics to run as a federal Conservative, said attempts to densify singlefamily neighbourhoods with nar-

rower streets and tighter homes can backfire, pointing to the failed “experiment” in Surrey’s Clayton neighbourhood. “It is an absolute disaster because everybody relies on a car.” Watts then slammed the provincial government for continuing to suggest Metro Vancouver mayors raise TransLink property taxes to fund a critical transit expansion, rather than put proposed new sources of revenue to a Metro referendum. “That’s the way this provincial government wants to go,” Watts said, admitting she’s frustrated. “They want it on property tax. We’ve been doing this for seven years. Now there’s a referendum. They’re still not moving on the referendum. They said we need to take the lead on their initiative. And we’re back to square one.” Mission Mayor Ted Adlem argued transit riders should pay higher fares. He noted Mission taxpayers send $760,000 a year to TransLink for the West Coast Express station in their community but no contribution comes from Abbotsford, home to about 40 per cent of the commuter train passengers who board there. “It shouldn’t be on the backs of the taxpayers, it should be on the back of the rider,” Adlem said.

3rd Annual KidSport

Producers can buy carbon credits under new plan

Emission limits set for LNG Tom Fletcher

Benefiting KidSport™ Surrey/White Rock

Wednesday, Nov. 12th 6:00 p.m. Hazelmere Golf & Tennis Club 18150 8th Avenue, Surrey

Black Press

VICTORIA – The B.C. government has set environmental rules aimed at making good on its promise to export the world’s “cleanest” liquefied natural gas. Environment Minister Mary Polak introduced legislation Monday to set limits for greenhouse gas and conventional air pollution. It includes an option for LNG producers to buy carbon offsets or contribute to a “technology fund” if their operations exceed greenhouse gas limits. Polak said the system will permit LNG development without exceeding the government’s greenhouse gas target of a 33-per-cent reduction by 2020 and 80 per cent by 2050. New air quality rules are also being established for nitrogen dioxide and sulphur dioxide emissions, based on a review of air quality in the Kitimat area. The “benchmark” for greenhouse-gas emissions is an average 0.16 tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent per tonne of LNG produced, which the government says is lower than the lowest-emitting LNG facilities in the U.S., Australia and Norway. Companies that exceed the benchmark will pay penalties on a sliding scale, and those that perform better than the benchmark will receive a carbon-offset

LNG tanker of the kind that would load at terminals in B.C. to transport gas at high pressure and low temperature. credit they can sell. NDP environment critic Spencer Chandra Herbert said the technology fund idea appears to be borrowed from Alberta, where a similar fund hasn’t stopped greenhouse gas emissions from rising. “I don’t know how we can meet our greenhouse gas reductions if we get five or seven LNG plants that the premier seems to suggest are coming, despite evidence to the contrary,” Herbert said. Polak said the technology fund will be developed in consultation with industry. Carbon offsets will be used to pay for projects in B.C. such as lower-emission transportation and buildings, and there is no plan to count emissions reductions from Asian users who use LNG to reduce

coal use, she said. Green Party MLA Andrew Weaver said the sliding scale for excess emissions means that taxpayers will be paying part of the penalties. He predicts that B.C. will never compete in the LNG industry, given growing international production of conventional and shale gas. But if it does, the province will not achieve reductions in emissions. “This isn’t going to fool anybody,” Weaver said. “It’s attempting to look like the government still has a plan for greenhouse-gas reductions.” The emission rules will apply to LNG processing only, not pollution and greenhouse gases from production and processing of natural gas in northeastern B.C.

Defeat on Bylaw 280 may bring higher property taxes

Metro politicians peer into recycling abyss Jeff Nagel Black Press

Metro Vancouver property taxes might have to go up if the province won't approve the regional district's controversial ban on trucking garbage to unauthorized landfills outside the region. That scenario was raised at Metro's waste committee this month by directors who said it's time to consider a backup plan if Victoria won't endorse Bylaw 280, which was passed nearly a year ago but still awaits the environment minister's okay. The regulation would stop commercial waste haulers from trucking Metro-area garbage first to Abbotsford and then sending it to U.S. landfills, skirting disposal bans here and avoiding Metro tipping fees. Metro's lost tipping fees are estimated at $11 million this year alone and officials predict haulers who avoid paying them will use their cost advantage to win more commercial hauling business, resulting in even more garbage flowing east in the years ahead. North Vancouver District Coun. Roger Bassam said Metro might have to shift much of the cost of its waste management system directly onto property taxes "so we can drive the tipping fees down to the point where there is no economic incentive to leave the region and win the battle that way." Solid waste manager Paul Henderson said the region is starting to look at its options if Bylaw 280 is rejected. He said shifting away from the user-funded garbage disposal system would bring disadvantages. Metro currently charges $108 per tonne to dispose of garbage but much less for recyclables, creating a powerful incentive to separate them. That tipping fee will rise $1 next year but officials say they can go no further due to competition from out of region. If tipping fees were slashed to compete with eastbound haulers, Henderson said, there would be less incentive

to recycle. He noted Ontario's commercial waste haulers aren't bound by the same rules as residents and as a result the commercial sector's recycling rate there is 13 per cent, compared to 39 per cent in Metro. Burnaby Mayor Derek Corrigan said defeat on Bylaw 280 would likely force Metro to revert to a landfilling strategy and abandon its plans to build a potential second incinerator to capture more energy from waste. "There is a Plan B but it's so unpleasant and it reverses everything we are doing," he said. "We stop the aggressive recycling we do and we accept the alternative is landfilling." Corrigan said it would mean abandoning the user-pay principle in favour of taxpayers subsidizing the worst waste offenders who refuse to recycle. "We will lose our reputation as a world leader in this area," he predicted, adding numerous green recycling businesses that have sprung up will fail if the recyclables they process end up in dumps instead. Opponents of Bylaw 280 contend Metro's motive is to keep garbage penned up inside the region to feed a new incinerator. "We find it outrageous that Metro Vancouver wants to use the taxpayers as hostages, basically, and threaten the province that property taxes have to go up," said Lori Bryan, executive director of the Waste Management Association of B.C. "They're forcing the taxpayers and businesses to pay for their inefficiencies and to pay for the incinerator that nobody wants." Bryan said proposed mixed-waste material recovery facilities, which sort recyclables from garbage ahead of final disposal, could play an important role in retrieving more material that now goes to landfills or incineration. Judy Rudin, spokesperson for Rabanco, a Washington State landfill receiving much of the outbound Metro waste, said Metro mayors are

Property taxes might increase if Bylaw 280 is not endorsed by the provincial government. scaremongering Other critics say with talk of dire waste flow control will consequences for let Metro sharply raise recycling. tipping fees to pay

for a new incinerator, tentatively estimated to cost $517 million. Environment Minister Mary Polak said she hopes to hand down a decision on Bylaw 280 in the next few weeks. "It's a very substantial shift," she said. "I want to be certain that any decision we make is not going to have unintended consequences." Metro estimates 100,000 tonnes of

garbage is currently being hauled east to avoid its tipping fees, up from 50,000 in 2012. Various business groups, including the B.C. Chamber of Commerce, have opposed Bylaw 280. Supporters include many Metro recycling businesses. A planned renewable energy utility on Burnaby Mountain powered by woodwaste biomass may

also be thwarted if the bylaw is blocked, said Simon Fraser University Community Trust president Gordon Harris. "If the region were to continue to allow haulers to ship garbage away unsorted, we – like other green energy businesses – would be at risk of losing our feedstock, rendering an environmentally beneficial operation uneconomic," he said.

GVHBA prepares for annual Coats for Kids campaign The Greater Vancouver Home Builders’ Association (GVHBA) is preparing for its 19th-annual Coats for Kids campaign in support of the Lower Mainland Christmas Bureau, a group whose many initiatives help to provide a brighter Christmas for families in need. “Last year the response to Coats for Kids was heartwarming as Lower Mainland residents donated more than 3,000 coats, scarves, gloves, blankets and new unwrapped toys and gifts for distribution to children, teenagers and adults,” says GVHBA

CEO Bob de Wit. “Coats for Kids has become an institution of the association. We already have members calling to sign up,” says de Wit. “Our members help to ensure we collect quality, gently used pieces of clothing, with all the buttons buttoning and zippers zipping.” “This year we are putting out a special request for hoodies, making sure that not-so-easy demographic is covered. It is so important to reach out and help families in our communities who are in need, especially during this time of the year.”

NEW HOME DEVELOPMENT

In addition to the GVHBA office, member companies at locations throughout Lower Mainland municipalities, including several Black Press community papers, will serve as coat drop-off sites from November 24 to December 4. Take the opportunity now to clean out, wash and pack up those items no longer being used. For more information about the Coats for Kids campaign and a list of participating companies and locations, check out your local Black Press community paper or www.gvhba.org starting in November.

Porte Development’s Verve features three buildings and a variety of home types. Among the features are full-size stainless steel appliances and laminate flooring. Residents will have access to multiple amenities, including a fireside lounge with flat-screen TV and games rooms.

Maximum value at The Maxx @ Verve By Kerry Vital

Porte Development’s Verve recently welcomed its newest addition: The Maxx @ Verve. The third and final phase of the popular condominium community includes all of the beautiful finishes from the first and second phases, as well as some new floorplans and amazing amenities. “This is a great opportunity for buyers,” says Jeanette Chaput, director of sales and marketing for Porte. “We’ve had a lot of firsttime buyers interested in Verve. It’s a great value and our price point is fantastic.” The homes at The Maxx range from 540 to 1,300 square feet, in a variety of junior one-bedroom, one-, two- and three-bedroom plans. The nine-foot ceilings (11 feet on the top floor) lend an incredible sense of space to your home, accented by large windows and laminate flooring throughout the main living areas. “Having ceilings this high is a great feature,” says Chaput. The kitchens feature full-size stainlesssteel appliances, polished quartz countertops

and under-cabinet valence lighting. The high-gloss upper cabinetry is complemented by warm wood lowers, and each floorplan includes some unique features such as wine racks, pantries or built-in work stations. “Our kitchens are great,” Chaput says. “People really appreciate the little details like the full-size appliances and our signature wine racks.” Spa-like ensuite bathrooms feature customdesigned vanities with polished quartz countertops, undermount sinks and vanity drawers, complemented by porcelain tile floors. The square-profile deep soaker tub is lit by recessed lighting. Most two-bedroom homes include oversized shower stalls with semi-frameless glass doors. Outside, each building at Verve (Verve, Social @ Verve and The Maxx @ Verve) has its own colour palette that complements the others. A paved stone driveway leads onto the tree-lined interior streets between the buildings, and a pedestrian walkway makes its way to trails and parks. Each home comes with a spacious garden patio or balcony, and there is plenty of space for parking. In fact, all homes come with a parking stall and most two-bedroom homes come with a tandem stall for two cars. On-site amenities for residents include a furnished guest suite, gym, yoga studio, fireside lounge with flatscreen TV, games rooms and outdoor seating. The neighbourhood has been particularly popular with buyers. “Our location is the best,” Chaput says. “We’re just a six-minute walk from King

George SkyTrain station and 13 minutes to Central City mall.” Surrey City Centre is one of the fastestgrowing areas in the Lower Mainland, so homeowners at Verve are also very close to dining, leisure and recreation opportunities as well as the Surrey campus of Simon Fraser University, the new Surrey City Hall and the City Centre library. Elementary and secondary schools are also in the area. “We’ve had several buyers who work at Surrey Memorial Hospital or the RCMP headquarters,” says Chaput. “They can walk

to work!” Porte is once again offering their popular flexible deposit program at The Maxx. “It gives buyers the chance to build their downpayment as we build their home,” Chaput says. “It can be a challenge for firsttime buyers, and this will help.” Homes at The Maxx @ Verve start at $169,900. For more information, visit www. porte.ca/verve, call 604-588-3783 or stop by the presentation centre at 13931 Fraser Highway, open daily except Friday between noon and 5 p.m.
