The man who set up an ambitious alcohol and drug recovery home in Surrey has been honoured with the Dalai Lama’s Humanitarian Award. For the first time,
the Dalai Lama recognized the contributions by an individual who, through his devotion to philanthropy and humanitarian causes worldwide, has made exceptional positive social change.
Volken arrived in Surrey about 10 years ago, with plans to use the fortune from his furniture empire to build a large recovery facility for those struggling with drug and alcohol addiction.
It was the latest in a long journey for Volken, who arrived in Canada from East Germany when he was 18 with $20 in his pocket. continued on page 4

▼ WANTS SURREY TO RESCIND ITS ANTI-HOMOPHOBIA POLICY
TRACY HOLMES
A South Surrey-based “pro-family” group is calling on the Surrey Board of Education to rescind the district’s newly minted anti-homophobia policy. And B.C. Parents and Teachers for Life (BCPTFL) 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, said 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. School district spokesman Doug Strachan said this week that he could not speak to the submission, 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 okay.” Hewlett said a position paper and “hundreds” of signatures in support of rescinding the Doug Strachan regulation were hand-delivered to the school board office last week. 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.”

Report ranks region’s top civic spenders ▼ AIM IS TO EDUCATE VOTERS AHEAD OF THE NOVEMBER ELECTION JEFF NAGEL
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. Lead author Charles Lammam said the aim of the report 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 “nocall-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, ▶ “Our people Delta spends $567 per resident each year for protective serwant to have the vices – fire and police – while best emergency Surrey’s cost per person is $347. services we can But Surrey’s $220 relative provide and we savings per capita on fire and police may shrink, however. are doing that.” continued on page 5

In 1960, the soft-spoken Mormon said he began working in fast food restaurants because “he had to eat.” Later as a salesman,
he opened a United Furniture Warehouse in Vancouver offering no-frills stock at low prices. A second store was opened in Surrey a few years later. By 2001, Volken had opened 150 stores
throughout Canada and the U.S. and was seeing annual revenues of $200 million. Two years later, after a marital separation, Volken decided to sell off his holdings and find something more meaningful

He considered a homeless shelter, but after speaking with service providers in Vancouver, he shifted his focus to helping people with addictions. He put $130 million in assets into a foundation to pay for his dream, a recovery house that he calls Welcome Home. Volken recently built a 72-unit facility in Newton at 6925 King George Blvd. The $20-million compound has a host of necessary amenities, including classrooms, an on-site dentist and gymnasium, along with a store where recovering addicts work. Clients are expected to stay for an average of four years. Those who can afford it pay $65 a day, while the less-affluent stay for free. The foundation makes about $5 million annually in lease income from Volken’s properties, which covers the costs. Volken also sold his $5.5-million West Vancouver mansion and lives in the Surrey treatment centre. He’s done all this to try and help an addicted community known to lie, manipulate, steal and abuse the people trying to help them. It would be a lot easier, Volken acknowledges, to put all of the money towards a cause like treating AIDS in Africa. But that’s just money, he says. He wanted to

get involved. He also runs a 20-bed facility in Seattle and has plans to open similar facilities in Alberta and Ontario. Volken was invited to a special ceremony at the Fairmont Pacific Rim in Vancouver on Tuesday morning to receive the humanitarian award from the Dalai Lama. It was the second stop in Vancouver for the 14th Dalai Lama, the spiritual icon of Tibetan Buddhism. The Dalai Lama was at John Oliver High School on Tuesday morning, where he fielded questions from some of the teens at the school. Matthew Morin grew up in a chaotic home and as he developed, he had a hard time connecting with kids in school. He asked the Dalai Lama if it was important to have a strong connection with a mother in order to develop compassion. “Oh yes, no question,” the Dalai Lama said, as he held Morin’s hand. “I think most important for a compassionate mind, is our mother’s compassion.” He told Morin that’s where he got his compassionate mind. After the school visit, the Dalai Lama attended the presentation of Volken’s humanitarian award and then participated in other events up until today (Oct. 23).

▶ LONG HISTORY IN SURREY DISTRICT from page 3
And it criticizes an apparent lack of opportunity for parents to prevent the indoctrination of their children. “B.C. Parents and Teachers for Life wants the board to consider the viewpoints of par-
ents 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
school board of the day to approve 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.
▶ SURREY’S GROWTH A FACTOR from page 3
Most candidates for Surrey council are promising to hire dozens more police 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. The per person spending statistics don’t mean that’s how much each resident is actually taxed for services. In fact, taxes are spread out over business and industry as well, and revenue comes into city halls from other sources too. Surrey has by far the lowest taxes on a per-resident basis ($574 compared to a Metro average of $900.) That’s been enabled in part because Surrey’s revenues have been supercharged by growth, with $1.2 billion flowing from development fees over the 10 years to 2012, a period that saw the city’s population leap by 113,000, absorbing a third of Metro’s growth. Port Coquitlam, Maple Ridge and Langley Township have also relied more heavily on development fees, according to the report, which cautioned that can drive housing prices higher and reduce affordability. Other user fees and sales of civic services also add up – New Westminster generates more from those fees, which include pay parking charges, than it does from property tax. The findings flag Burnaby as having the highest reliance on business taxes in the
region – 52 per cent of its property tax come from business. But that could mainly indicate Burnaby is a popular place for businesses to locate, with its central geography. Burnaby’s businesses are not the most highly taxed in the region – the city ranks close to the Metro average, although its industrial property tax rate is the second highest after Port Moody. Businesses pay the highest property tax rates in Coquitlam, New Westminster, Port Coquitlam, Pitt Meadows and Maple Ridge, and the least in Surrey and Richmond.
Residential tax rates are actually highest in Maple Ridge, Pitt Meadows and Langley City – where they are applied against relatively low assessed home values compared with other parts of the region – while rates are lowest in the priciest areas: West Vancouver, Richmond and Vancouver.
Spending per person in 2012 • Burnaby – $1,249 • Coquitlam – $1,393 • Delta – $1,596 • Langley City – $1,192 • Langley Township – $1,269
• Maple Ridge – $1,139 • New Westminster – $1,837 • North Vancouver City – $1,541 • North Vancouver District – $1,454 • Pitt Meadows – $1,257 • Port Coquitlam – $1,163 • Port Moody – $1,345 • Richmond – $1,340 • Surrey – $951 • Vancouver – $1,689 • West Vancouver – $2,118 • White Rock – $1,351 • Metro Vancouver average – $1,384 See story online at surreyleader.com for an interactive chart with more data.

Security stepped up in B.C. buildings after Ottawa shootings ▶ SUSPECTED TERRORIST ATTACK ROCKS PARLIAMENT HILL RICK KUPCHUK & JEFF NAGEL
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.
Jasbir Sandhu
The attack started with the point-blank shooting of one of two honour guards at the memorial and a gun battle with dozens of shots fired, then continued inside the Parliament building, where one male attacker was killed, reportedly by the sergeant-atarms. 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. MPs from Surrey and North Delta remained in the Parliament buildings during the shooting, reporting that they were safe but alarmed after the incident and subsequent search for gunmen “We are safe,” tweeted NDP MP Jinny Sims (Surrey-Newton) from the lockdown. “Cannot believe this is happening in my Canada.” At least two victims with injuries were taken to hospital and were in stable condition Wednesday afternoon. Two Surrey MPs were in lockdown with their New Democrat colleagues, sitting quietly in the room where they were holding their weekly caucus meeting when shots rang out, with Burnaby-New Westminster MP Peter Julien saying the gunman was at one point right outside the door. Jasbir Sandhu, MP for Surrey-North, was on Twitter at about 7 a.m. (PDT), saying shots had been fired in the House of Commons. “Many many shots fired… scary,” Sandhu wrote. Shortly after, he said shots had stopped and the Parliament building was in lockdown and people in the silent room were being asked to lay down on the floor. He said some MPs were in the same room as him, while others were in a different room with heavy, armed security in the hallway.

Dealing with suites Surrey appears to be finally getting a handle on an issue that has been a sore point for most of the past 40 years – secondary suites in what are optimistically called “single-family” homes. Back in the 1970s and 1980s, the suites were not as common as they are today, but there were still a fair number of them. In the 1980s, when there was a significant economic downturn in the B.C. economy and interest rates were at record levels, they started to become essential in ensuring that many people could pay their mortgages. They were frequently called “mortgage helpers,” a description that is still used on occasion. As the late 1980s and 1990s rolled on, many larger homes began to appear – often with several suites. These were designed for multi-generational families who lived together under one roof, but often included suites for rental to others. Homes have continued to get larger, and few homes are built today which cannot easily have one or more suites added. Given the price of real estate, it is unaffordable for many younger people to live in anything but a suite, at least as they are starting out on their own. In addition, wage growth outside government work and the trades and professions is stagnant, giving little opportunity to people to save for even the most basic
home of their own. The City of Surrey said Tuesday in a press release that 25,551 secondary suites have been registered, as of the end of September. In addition, 1,063 coach houses, most of which are located in East Clayton, have been registered. This is a huge increase from even a few years ago. The city notes that it continues to do active bylaw enforcement in attempts to find unregistered suites, with 170 infraction notices issued recently. We need to know just how many suites there are in the city. It is important to know the accurate population of any given neighbourhood in order for proper planning for city services – which range from schools and police, to water and sewer lines. It is safe to say that suites are much more accepted as part of day-to-day life in most neighbourhoods than they were 20 or 25 years ago. Most people know that housing is expensive and many younger homeowners count on the rent from suites to assist in paying their mortgages. There are still some problems which remain thorny. Many firsttime homeowners do not know much about screening tenants and collecting rent and get stuck with bad tenants. Perhaps the biggest single
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. Surrey addressed the issue of 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 daily travel. Some years ago, former 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 among the younger generations. However, it is hard to get around in Surrey without a car. 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.

A couple of years ago, I had the opportunity to listen to Jennifer Martin, a news reporter in Alberta, speak about her husband’s suicide. He was a police officer who suffered from untreated Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, along with numerous concussions. She described in vivid detail her experiences in living with a man in this state: from being a loving and loyal husband on good days, to mean and unpredictable on the bad ones, making him at times unbearable to live with. Jennifer’s emotional account of finding her husband the day he chose to end his own life left me, and the entire audience, in a silent state of shock. Jennifer was so brave to stand up and tell her deeply intense story of suffering and grief. Sadly, hers is one of many similar stories across Canada about police officers who choose to take their own lives after experiencing trauma – whether it is a horrific
single experience or a series of tragedies over the course of a career. There are some who believe that police officers should be able to deal with stress because it is what they signed up for. With that attitude, we are sending our officers mixed messages because we want them to “suck it up,” yet we expect them to be compassionate when responding to calls. Police officers are human beings and experience the same emotions as everyone else. When a young police officer, who has just become a parent for the first time, responds to a call for the death of a child or a fatal motor vehicle accident involving young victims, it will no doubt affect him or her. In Delta, we have had some horrifying files involving families and children. The murder of two-year-old Rajvinder Kahlon by her father impacted a number of people in our department.
When Manjit Panghali was murdered, investigators kept a picture of her on the wall – they wanted a constant reminder of the woman for whom they sought justice. The same reaction by officers occurred during the investigation into the impaired driving death of four-year-old Alexa Middelaer. They named the file “Project Angel” and committed countless hours, often sacrificing their own personal lives, to hold the offender accountable for her actions. Alexa’s picture hung in many offices in the department. Some of these terrible tragedies have forced members of our staff into sick leave or resignation from policing. It’s not just the big files that can create trauma. A young officer fresh out of the police academy had to respond to a series of calls, including a father who assaulted

his young special needs child; a woman who jumped off a bridge and the police were concerned that she had taken her child with her; the recovery of her body (thankfully the child was not involved); and a call to a violent suicide in a garden shed. When you add the emotionally stressful task of death notifications, a police officer can quickly become overwhelmed by the job. In the Delta Police Department, we employ a number of strategies to mitigate the intensity of traumatic events. While we have come a long way in identifying the problem, we have a lot of work to do to ensure our strategies create meaningful change in the lives of our first responders.

▼ HERE’S A CRAZY IDEA... Once again we hear everywhere the lament: “Voter turnout too low.” A crazy idea has been fermenting in my noggin for years. The people need an incentive to show up to vote, say for instance a chance to have their name (registered voter card or separate entry form) entered after they vote for a chance to have a street, park, school or other public building in their municipality named after them. (Yours truly naturally ineligible). I know, crazy. And there is probably some silly electoral bylaw or other rule against it. H. Torenbeek

Pay parking adds insult to injury ▼ COMPASSION SHOULD BE SHOWN TO HOSPITAL PATIENTS I have one question for all the candidates who are running for Surrey council and the mayor’s position: Where do they stand on very expensive parking in and around Surrey hospitals? When someone gets sick in the family, it is not a pleasant situation to begin with, but it is like adding insult to injury when one has to pay a very high parking rate in and around the Surrey hospitals. All possible free parking on the streets around the hospitals has been eliminated, including at Surrey Memorial Hospital and the Jim Pattison Outpatient Care and Surgery Centre. Patients and their families

have no option but to get ripped off at the pay parking lots which are getting pricier and pricier every coming year. At Delta Hospital, for example, not only is the parking free on the streets around
the hospital, but the hospital parking lot is free as well. This is a calculated and deliberate attempt both by the Fraser Health Authority and the City of Surrey to pick the pockets of patients and their
families at the worst time – when someone is sick and has no option but to surrender to this robbery in the name of pay parking. Such schemes are made in back rooms by bureaucrats who are not directly accountable to the public and are cushioned behind the multiple layers of bureaucracy to please their political masters who appointed them in the first place. The public is already taxed to death by all levels of government. There is a provincial tax, federal tax, property tax, sales tax and tax on tax – you name it. There should be some compassion for patients; they do not get sick by choice and when they get sick they have no choice but to go to the hospital. They should not be forced to pay a further tax in the name of pay parking.

Canadian Forces Bases and many other federal facilities have been closed to visitors and military personnel have reportedly been directed not to wear uniforms in public unless they are on active duty. The B.C. legislature restricted visitor access Wednesday but was expected to proceed with its afternoon sitting, with extra security and the public galleries closed.
Legislature clerk Craig James said staff received a heightened risk alert this week and a small number of MLAs were made aware of it, but there was no specific threat against the B.C. legislature. In Metro Vancouver, Transit Police said they’ve stepped up security measures on the transit system, as did Vancouver International Airport. The Ottawa attack came two days after a Canadian soldier was struck and killed Monday by a vehicle in Montreal driven by a man RCMP described as radicalized. RCMP officials told reporters it was too early to discuss the possible motivations of the attack and whether it constitutes terrorism, nor would authorities say if they believe another gunman or gunmen are still at large. Flags at Surrey City Hall and all civic facilities were lowered to half-mast in the wake of the shootings in Ottawa and the attack in Quebec. “I am shocked and deeply saddened by the tragic events that have taken the lives of two of our servicemen,” said Mayor Dianne Watts. “Our thoughts and prayers go out to the families and all who have been affected. A heartfelt thank you to all the brave men and women that help keep us safe. We all stand together against this type of violence in our country.”

Poll shows Hepner in the lead â–ś COUNCILLOR LEADS WITH 40 PER CENT SUPPORT, FOLLOWED BY MCCALLUM (33) AND RASODE (22) KEVIN DIAKIW
A new poll released this week has Surrey First mayoral candidate Linda Hepner in the lead, with 40 per cent of decided voters saying they would cast a ballot for her. The poll, commissioned by Surrey First and conducted by Vancouver’s Innovative Research Group, tallied the opinions of 300 people by phone between Oct. 6 and 12. It showed that the top issue is crime at 36 per cent, followed by keeping property taxes down (16 per cent). Both open and honest government and attracting jobs came in third at 11 per cent. Reducing wasteful spending at city hall was the biggest issue for 10 per cent of those polled, reducing traffic congestion was at eight per cent and improving services for seniors came in at five per cent. The poll showed Hepner leads the mayor’s race with decided support at 40 per cent, followed by former mayor Doug McCallum at 33 per cent and Barinder Rasode at 22 per cent. The poll has McCallum and Hepner at inverse positions compared to an online poll conducted a week ago by Insights West. The new poll also shows 73 per cent of those asked believe the city is better now than it was nine years ago before Dianne Watts became mayor. Mayoral candidate Rasode says the inclusion of Watts and her record, both which were popular, makes the survey a bit of a push poll. A push poll is where people are asked leading questions that favour their party or candidate before asking the candidate. In those instances, responses will be more favourable of the aligned candidate. However, Innovative Research Group says there’s nothing in this poll to push respondents one way or the other. Watts’ popularity was polled, says pollster

▶ LARRY ROBERT MIZEN STRUCK FEAR INTO MANY IN WHALLEY KEVIN DIAKIW
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. If Mizen’s name was said out loud on Whalley’s notorious strip along 135A Street, people would scatter, as though uttering his name would summon retribution. They described him as an immense man who patrolled the streets wearing a leath-
er 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 street-level drug trade in Whalley for years. On Sunday (Oct. 19) at about 8:40 p.m., the 54-year-old 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 well known to police. The Leader became

Then on Oct. 18, a second sex trade 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 male, about 35 years old, 5’10’, 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.

Whatever the Cause, This Crash was Preventable
THE ROAD RULES www.roadrules.ca
Cedric Hughes
T
Barrister & Solicitor
wo 17-year-old high school students, a male and a female, died in a car crash around 3:15 pm on Thanksgiving afternoon, October 13, 2014, when the bright red car in which they were traveling to a Thanksgiving dinner crashed into oncoming traffic on Highway 10 between Highway 91 and 120th Street in Delta. Five vehicles were involved and Highway 10 was closed for hours as police began investigating. Weather, speed and distraction are three factors in issue. Photos of the crash show the red car totally demolished. Amongst the speculative commentaries online following the report on www.cbc.ca is the effort to understand what happened. ‘Speed’ is at the top of the list, with messages such as: “Maybe this is a stretch of road that SENSE BC would like to see the speed limit raised on too...” “We have to get away from the mentality of raising speed limits.” There are numerous ‘engineering design’ queries about the red car and this stretch of Highway 10: “Just curious if their car pre-dates air bags or pre-dates traction control and stability control.” “Going up or down that stretch of Hwy 10 is dangerous and scary...” “This … section of Hwy 10 …should have a concrete divider down the middle. … When
you head west past Scott Road/120th down the hill to highway 91 the road goes downhill and with a somewhat sharp curve. It is also very shaded. Very wet/icy conditions result in a slipping opportunity for anyone not paying careful attention to the road conditions. Now is the time for the highways department to step up and address this obvious safety issue.” “Drivers often take [that stretch of road] way too fast, probably still mentally at highway speed from exiting HWY 91. Even so, the limit there is 80km/h with no physical barrier between oncoming traffic. Extending the concrete barrier west beyond 120th street seems like a cheap no-brainer that could have saved these lives.” ‘Distracted driving’ was advanced as a possible explanation: “Drivers [especially the inexperienced] have to realize that to drive safely they need to be concentrating completely on the task at hand.” “Because they ‘lost control’ of a vehicle on a road that no one else did, at 3 in the afternoon? Hopefully this isn’t yet another example of distracted driving…” In response to a criticism about the reports including “the vehicle pictures,” the possible deterrent effects of seeing the results of a severe crash were recorded: “[When] I was responsible for a summer student crew… We gave them a defensive driving course, but then … took them to the local wreckers to see smashed cars close up. That had more effect on them than the course itself.” We, the general public, at the moment do not know the cause of the crash. We can however, say almost certainly, that with the exercise of due care it would have been preventable.
Province rejects region’s ban on exporting garbage ▶ POLAK CITES MONOPOLY RISK; MOORE WARNS OF RECYCLING CATASTROPHE JEFF NAGEL
The provincial government has rejected Metro Vancouver’s controversial Bylaw 280, which sought to ban the growing flow of garbage shipments out of the region.
Environment Minister Mary Polak cited concerns that the bylaw, passed by the Metro board a year ago, would create a monopoly on waste management, destabilize the private hauling industry and might increase illegal dumping. The decision is a win for private waste haulers who want free rein to send waste outside of Metro, as well as

U.S. landfill operator Rabanco – a major destination for the outbound garbage. They and other opponents of Bylaw 280 – including the B.C. Chamber of Commerce – had lobbied the province hard for months to kill it. The Fraser Valley Regional District and other opponents of garbage incineration also hope the decision derails Metro’s plan to

build a new $517-million waste-to-energy plant, which may not be viable if waste can flow freely to outside landfills. “It makes it very, very difficult for Metro Vancouver to justify the incinerator,” Abbotsford Coun. Patricia Ross said. “And I doubt they can afford it without Bylaw 280, which would have given them control of the whole market to charge whatever tipping fee they want.” Metro Vancouver board chair Greg Moore called the decision a catastrophic blow to Metro’s recycling record. “It completely undermines all of the efforts we’ve made over the last couple of decades to have source separation occur and led us to incredibly high diversion rates,” he said, adding haulers can now bypass Metro’s recycling system and contribute nothing. An estimated 100,000 tonnes of garbage a year is sent first to Abbotsford and then to landfills in the U.S. That volume is expected to rise rapidly without new restrictions. Haulers using that route pay much less than the $108 per tonne tipping fee in Metro and they don’t have to abide by Metro bans on the dumping of recyclables or pay surcharges on violations. Officials at the regional district have warned their bans on the dumping of various recyclables at transfer stations will be rendered ineffective without Bylaw 280. The outflow of garbage has already continued on page 19

cut Metro tipping fees by about $11 million a year and the regional district faces a $6 million budget shortfall as a result in 2015. Some Metro politicians have suggested property taxes may have to rise so tipping fees can be cut to better compete against out-of-region alternatives. Moore said it’s too soon to say if the region will be forced to rethink its waste-to-energy plans and revert to a landfill-first disposal policy. The region is committed to stop using the Cache Creek landfill. He said the decision will mean higher costs for Metro ratepayers and may jeopardize hundreds of jobs with existing recycling businesses in the region. Polak said she shares many of Metro’s concerns about unrestricted garbage hauling and said some form of waste flow control will be necessary. “We cannot leave this in an entirely unregulated situation,â€? Polak said. “The movement of waste outside the region is we need to â–ś “We cannot something be concerned about and leave this in we need to find the right way of regulating that an entirely behaviour,â€? She named Surunregulated rey-Panorama MLA situation.â€? Marvin Hunt, the MARY POLAK former chair of Metro’s waste committee, to conduct a three-month review and make further recommendations. While Polak said Bylaw 280 was “too heavy-handedâ€? she did not rule out some new form of regulation. “We have to make sure we’re not working against our goals for diversion.â€? Polak said a key consideration is what may happen if the new package and paper recycling system overseen by Multi-Material B.C. eventually extends to commercial and multi-family residential. Moore said he’s dismayed Polak listened to lobbyists, particularly those of hauler BFI Canada, which has a transfer station in Abbotsford and Cache Creek landfill owner Belkorp Environmental. “This boils down to two companies that want to continue to put garbage into landfills because that’s where they make their money,â€? Moore said.

▶ “My parents tricked me and signed me up for a horseriding camp to help with my stretching and therapy.”
For Ashley Gowanlock, overcoming adversity has been a challenge she met head on. Diagnosed with cerebral palsy at the age of two, Gowanlock was told she would never walk or talk. Extensive physiotherapy was prescribed to help build strength and flexibility, but it was a horseback riding program designed for children with disabilities that set her on a path to success. “My parents tricked me and signed me up for a horseback riding camp to help with my stretching and therapy,” said Gowanlock, but the opportunity to work closely with the horses soon blossomed into a love of riding. When she was 14 she attended a Scouts camp for disabled riders looking to develop their skills and pursue a dream of competing internationally. That exposure and train-

ing led to Gowanlock qualifying for numerous international events, highlighted by a chance to compete for Canada in the Para-dressage event at the Paralympic games in Beijing in 2008 and then again in London in 2012. “I’m a competitor in these events but it’s still amazing to see people riding with no arms or no legs controlling a 1,200-pound horse with the reins in their mouth or continued on page 22

freedom.” Although her horse was unable to compete in London because of an injury, Gowanlock placed fifth in London on a borrowed horse. After returning home she by chance watched a documentary about Right to Play, an international orga-
nization founded by Norwegian Olympic speed skater Johann Olav Koss, that uses sport and play as a tool for positive childhood development around the globe. Now 27, Gowanlock decided to get involved as a junior leader, giving her an opportunity to

Brace yourselves - the cold & flu season is coming! Zinc is an important player in immune function - even a slight deficiency can weaken the immune system. People at risk of zinc inadequacy include vegetarians, pregnant women, and those with gastrointestinal diseases, including chronic diarrhea. The body does not store excess zinc, so daily supplementation is a good idea for everyone. Other conditions which have been treated with zinc supplementation include wound healing, acne, and sense of taste and smell. Start ramping up your immune defense now and avoid spending your weekend at the walk-in clinic!

speak to kids about her life and creating a peaceful school community. Recently she had her first speaking engagement at Frank Hurt Secondary School in Surrey, where she spoke about her life growing up and her dream of becoming an Olympian. “You don’t need to have heaps of money, you can still make an impact,” she said. “Even if you are not an athlete, if you have air in your lungs you have value and you have the ability to change someone
else’s life, just find the thing you enjoy and do it and don’t let people put a label on you.” This was one of 220 school-wide presentations Right to Play Ambassadors will be delivering across Canada, educating students on Right to Play’s Sport for Development and Peace movement and how they can participate in global citizenship and social justice.

▼ A SEVEN-YEAR-OLD SURREY CHAMPION HELPS VARIETY’S FUNDRAISING EFFORTS
Surrey’s Kaden Manji,7, is fundraising to help children who have special needs through the Variety Club’s ongoing Kid Champions program. When Kaden was only 36 hours old, doctors discovered a hole in his heart. Specialized medication helped to correct the condition without surgery, but other problems persisted. He was diagnosed with apraxia and specialists feared he would never learn to speak. Variety helped the family pay for expensive speech and language therapy which made a significant difference. When Kaden was two and a half years old, he finally said his first word: “Mom.” Thanks to early intervention and his supportive parents, Kaden is hitting milestones and accomplishing little Kaden Manji victories every day. This is the fourth year Kaden has participated in the Variety’s Kid Champions program. “Champions are people we look up to for inspiration,” said Bernice Scholten, executive director of Variety - The Children’s Charity. To donate, there are Variety coin boxes in all IGA, BMO and Buy-Low locations, Variety’s website at variety.bc.ca and corporate sponsorships to raise funds through your business or by matching community donations.

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.

Spend a day at the art gallery

Surrey Little Theatre’s season begins tonight (Oct. 23) with A.R. Gurney’s adult comedy Sylvia, directed by Mike Busswood. The play follows the story of a dog that invades the lives of a pair of empty nesters – becoming much more than a dog to husband Greg and serious competition for wife Kate. The matter becomes a bone of contention for the couple, if you will. Their marriage is put in jeopardy until a series of hilarious and touching complications teach Greg and Kate to compromise, and Sylvia becomes a valued part of their world. The production features Terry Thomas and Kate Bergen, as well as Rebecca Strom as the title character. It’s the directorial debut for Busswood, and also features longtime actor Tim Driscoll, as well as character actors Kanchan Walberg and Bowen Munsil.

In a spirited, all-ages hour of entertainment, the b-boys and b-girls hold nothing back, flinging themselves into the air, spinning, twisting, and flipping in a burst of physical expression. The dancing is jet-fuelled, skillful, and so hot it sizzles. Hip hop and other street dance styles have come a long way from their beginnings in New York as an alternative to gun culture for African American youth, spreading their festive spirit of music and life across the world. Choreographer-dancer Yvon Soglo (B-boy Crazy Smooth) is one of Canada’s top street dancers. Mostly self-taught, Smooth’s passion and respect for the history of the art form has led him to study with some of New York’s foremost street dancers. He has been an instructor for acrobats from Cirque du Soleil, performed at the Nancy Jazz Festival in France, and was awarded Most Valuable B-boy at the annual Kings of NY Competition in 2006. Bboyizm Dance Company’s (www. bboyizm.ca) goal is to promote and preserve the foundation of all street dances. Tickets for the Oct. 28 show are $12.50, including all fees. Phone 604-501-5566, check tickets.surrey. ca or visit the Surrey Arts Centre box office at 13750 88 Ave.

Hawks take two from Kootenay ▼ MAJOR MIDGET TEAM MOVES UP TO THIRD PLACE AFTER A PAIR OF WINS OVER THE ICE RICK KUPCHUK

Pegasus unbeatable in VMSL Premier Division
▼ SURREY TEAMS ARE AT THE TOP OF VANCOUVER METRO SOCCER LEAGUE STANDINGS
RICK KUPCHUK
Even when shorthanded, ICST Pegasus is playing perfect soccer. The Vancouver Metro Soccer League team ran its Premier Division record to a perfect 7-0-0 (won-tied-lost) with a 3-1 victory over Surrey rival CCBRT Friday night at Newton Athletic Park. Pegasus, with 21 points, and the 6-1-0 West Van FC have pulled away from the pack at the one-third mark of the season. West Van trails Pegasus by two points, but are already nine points clear of the Langley Hurricanes and Surrey United Firefighters, two teams tied for third at 2-4-1. Friday’s win came while Pegasus was missing several starters and had nobody on their roster available as substitutes. “We had only 11 regular players, and the three players on the bench were U21 call-ups,” said head coach Paul Bahia. “We were missing four key starters including league-leading
scorer Sahil Sandhu, who is currently out with a injury. “I told the boys we needed to dig deep for the win and I thought they played exceptionally well.” Ryan Powell opened the scoring late in the first half, then Adam Costly netted the winner early in the second. Bhaj Khattra added an insurance goal with 30 minutes to play. Yassin Essa netted the lone CCBRT goal. “In the back end Gurjit Dhaliwal, Jagminder Sajjan and Diz Kambere all turned in rock-solid performances,” said Bahia. Pegasus will visit Columbus FC (1-4-1) Saturday in Vancouver. The Firefighters ended a four-game winless streak, which included three draws, with a 3-2 win Sunday over the Coquitlam Metro Ford Wolves at Cloverdale Athletic Park. Nigel Marples gave Surrey an early lead with a goal just 15 minutes into the game, but by halftime, the visiting Wolves had the 2-1 lead. Kerman Pannu pulled the Firefighters even in the 70th minute, then Lucas Johns notched the winner with just 10 minutes to play. United will also be at home again this weekend, hosting West Van FC at 3 p.m. Sunday in Cloverdale.
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-lost-tied), 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 warm up 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 ▶ “Credit to period and 4-0 after two. Sunday was an unusual game, Kootenay, who with 18 goals scored and Valley never quit and West netminder Nicholas Tallarico of Surrey earning a fighting made us pay...” major and game misconduct in JESSIE LEUNG 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. BLUE LINES: Brett Cox of Cloverdale Minor Hockey played both games as an affiliate player, called up from his Midget A1 team. Ayre and Gingras are now one-two in the MML scoring race, with Barberis in fourth place. Ayre has seven goals and 22 points while Gingras has eight goals and 20 points, both in eight games played. Barberis has played just six games, the fewest among the top 20 scorers, and has two goals and 16 assists in just six games played.

Eagles work overtime in loss to Langley, win over Express ▶ JUNIOR A TEAM PUSHED TO OVERTIME FIVE TIMES THIS SEASON NICK GREENIZAN
The Surrey Eagles just can’t seem to solve things in 60 minutes. Twice last week – once Wednesday in Langley against the Rivermen, and again Sunday at home
against the Coquitlam Express – the Birds needed overtime to determine a winner. Surrey has gone to overtime five times in 11 BC Hockey League games – and three since Oct. 8. “We’ve had a lot of them, that’s for sure,” said Eagles head coach Blaine Neufeld. The Eagles ended up splitting the recent overtime sessions,
losing Wednesday 4-3, before bouncing back Sunday to defeat the Express by the same score. “It’s nice that we’re starting to get into the win column, and put up some points consistently. The (overtime) games tell you that we’re competitive with all the teams we’re playing, and that’s encouraging,” Neufeld said. The three-point week

Joe Drapluk scored a tying goal Sunday for the Surrey Eagles. GARRETT JAMES gives Surrey a 3-5-0-3 (win-loss-tied-overtime loss) record, good for fourth spot in the Mainland Division, just two points back of Langley but 10 shy of the first-place Chilliwack Chiefs. Sunday’s win was an impressive one for the young Eagles – they gave up one-goal leads twice, but also battled back late in the game to send it to extra time. Darius Davidson opened the scoring
for the home team, potting a goal just 2:02 into the game, and the slim lead lasted until the final minute of the first period, when Daniel Fritz tied the game for Coquitlam with just 29 seconds left before the intermission. The second period followed a script similar to the first, with the Eagles scoring first to retake the lead – this time on a goal from the suddenly red-hot Ben Vikich, who has three

goals in his last three games. But again, the Express tied the score late, this time with just one second before the horn, when Daniel Lange scored a power-play goal. Coquitlam took the lead in the third, on a goal from Brett Supinski, but two minutes later, Joe Drapluk scored his fourth of the year to tie the game, which eventually went to overtime after neither
team scored over the final 14 minutes. Chase McMurphy potted the winner for the home side, scoring 3:16 into extra time. Eagles’ goaltender Christian Short earned the win for Surrey, stopping 34 of 37 shots he faced. And Short – by far the busiest goaltender in the BCHL so far this season – was the main reason Surrey managed to scoop up a point Wednesday, too. Though the Eagles fell to the Rivermen, Short was in top form, stopping 55 shots. He was especially solid in the third, when the Eagles were outshot 22-8. “He’s played really well for us,” Neufeld said of his netminder, while also adding that shots-against are still a concern for his team. “We’re still giving up too many shots. Aside from the Langley game, our (numbers) had been going down every game, but it’s an area we have to work on.” Despite the high shot totals, Neufeld said his team’s work in their own zone hasn’t been of major concern. Where the problem lies, he said, is in the neutral zone – where giveaways are an issue. “We need to do a better job holding onto the puck, because it has a ripple effect. It gives the other team the puck, and let’s them come back at us with speed.” Surrey has a busy, three-game weekend upcoming, beginning with a home tilt Friday against the Express. On Saturday, they head to Vancouver Island to visit the Victoria Grizzlies, and they finish off the three-game slate with a Sunday afternoon game against the Nanaimo Clippers.

Hornets, ’Hawks play for second ▶ HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL TEAMS PLAY SATURDAY AT SEAQUAM RICK KUPCHUK
It’s likely second place in the Southern Conference of Senior AA high school football – and home field advantage in the playoffs – will be decided Saturday at Seaquam Secondary. The Seaquam Seahawks will host the Frank Hurt Hornets at 1:30 p.m. A Seahawks win clinches the runner-up position for Seaquam, while the Hornets will be a step closer to a playoff date at home should they triumph. The game will be the last of the regular season for the Seahawks, who improved to 2-1 (won-lost) with a 28-8 victory over the Moscrop Panthers in Burnaby last Friday night. Running back Makaki Kawanami carried the ball 21 times for 155 yards and a touchdown, while quarterback Joss Yanciw rushed for 86
yards and a pair of majors while throwing an 18-yard touchdown pass to Austin Bloom. Devon Singh converted all four scores. Linebacker Rob Hodgins with 16 tackles and a quarterback sack and Devon Gould with 15 tackles and a sack led the defense. Frank Hurt is 1-1 in league play after a 41-0 loss to the 3-0 Hugh Boyd Trojans, who clinched first place in the five-team division with the win. “Regardless of their 41-0 loss, they are a good football team,” said Seahawks head coach Jerry Mullis of the Hornets. “They are big, aggressive and talented. We will have to be at the top of our game to beat them.” The Hornets rallied from an 18-0 deficit to edge the Holy Cross Crusaders 19-18 on Oct. 4, and Mullis pays more attention to that result than the Frank Hurt loss to the Trojans, who have outscored their opponents 101-13 in three games. “(Frank Hurt) showed how dangerous they
can be when they came back from being down 18-0,” he said. “I have a lot of respect for teams that show that kind of resiliency.” ▶ The Lord Tweedsmuir Panthers are chasing second place in the Eastern Conference of Senior AAA football, and their path will go through Kelowna. The Panthers, 45-16 winners over the W.J. Mouat Hawks last Friday in Abbotsford, are 3-1 in league play with three games remaining. And two of the three are in the central Okanagan. “Travelling to Kelowna and playing presents challenges: bus legs, hydration issues can lead to cramping, nutrition management etc.,” said Lord Tweedsmuir head coach Kurth Thornton. “But they often travel so it is only fair we go there.” Several Panthers contributed to the win over W.J. Mouat. Quarterback Chrtistian MacMillan completed 10 of 15 pass attempts for 215 yards, hitting K.J. Johnson for a 68yard touchdown toss. Caleb Abraham ran for
touchdowns of one and six yards, and also returned an interception for 31 yards. Johnson also had an interception return for a score, covering 41 yards. Colton Zayshley ran for a 28-yard touchdown. Hayden Hamilton led the defense with 10 tackles and three quarterback sacks. Recording six tackles and a sack each were Abraham, Chris Atkinson and Alex Bachmeier. Looking ahead, the Panthers will likely need two more and maybe three more wins to climb into second place. “We are happy to be 3-1 after being the only AAA team to not practice during the (teachers’) strike, but we are not content as our goals are much higher,” said Thornton. “We can still improve our turnover ratio and our penalties.” The Panthers will play the 3-2 Mt. Boucherie Bears tomorrow (Friday) in Kelowna. Their final home game is a week later against the 4-1 St. Thomas More Knights.

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. Okay, let me qualify that. Though it does come with Downhill Speed Regulation (DSR)- an offroad 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 Mercedes-Benz’s fully variable 4MATIC all-wheel drive. You can shop for groceries around town in it but a trip up to a local ski hill will certainly not stress out the vehicle. Rest assured. The GLA also marks it FINANCING

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. And a location that was fortuitously placed on our drive route. The dynamics of the GLA were also as vibrant as the hues of the autumnal foliage that decorated the sur-
rounding towns of Burlington. In the lesser-powered GLA 250 – which has a 2.0L, I4 turbocharged engine with 208 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque – you still have a lot of ponies to play with. In fact, of the two engines available, this would be my choice. It has pep but also a smooth demeanor. If these engine choices look familiar to you, they are. They too can be found in the B-Class and CLA. The third time is a charm because of the compact luxury vehicles made by MB, this is my favourite. I think it has a lot to do with

Inside, the cabin is draped in ARTICO leather upholstery; a synthetic alternative to cowhide.
