Ballot error aftermath

One Surrey takes aim at election officer

‘Smear’ claimed

Barinder Rasode’s campaign manager is “building a case” to have Surrey city clerk Jane Sullivan removed as the city’s chief election officer. The move came after a misprint on a ballot that left two of Rasode’s candidates without the One Surrey party affiliation beside their names during advanced voting Saturday. One Surrey campaign manager Brad Zubyk said he contacted Sullivan at about 9 a.m. and he says the polls remained open for another couple of hours. “We’re building a case with our legal team,” Zubyk said Tuesday. “To be honest, I’ve never seen such a s--t show in my life.” Sullivan sent out a notice on Monday evening indicating all procedures after the error were correct. “Independent legal counsel has confirmed that Surrey election officials took appropriate steps to ensure the integrity of the voting process,” Sullivan said in a release. “The chief election officer also confirms that all the ballot boxes containing all ballots cast prior to the temporary 55-minute suspension of voting on Nov. 1, 2014 were segregated and secured.” While it was initially estimated that 200 ballots were printed with incorrect information, it is now believed that nearly 700 of the errant ballots were cast, and more than 100 were sent out by mail. Zubyk says he has nothing against Sullivan, but suggests she’s over her head handling this election. This is Sullivan’s fifth time as chief elections officer in Surrey; she has also run civic elections in Alberta. Zubyk said he’s travelled the world observing other elections and says he’s never seen anything like this. “Once again, Surrey is in the media for all the wrong reasons,” he said. Zubyk was expected to file his case with the province this week.

White Rock’s sole mayoral challenger says a CBC news report this week – detailing a grievance he filed against the B.C. Teachers’ Federation after he was fired for allegedly threatening to “go postal” on his co-workers – is inaccurate and sensational. And, David Bradshaw says it has done nothing to sway him in his run to unseat incumbent Wayne Baldwin. “Of course I’m still running for mayor,” Bradshaw told Peace Arch News during a brief phone conversa❝The fact of the tion Wednesday. “And I’m looking formatter is, there never was any ward to Monday’s (allthreat of any candidates) meeting very much (see page 4), kind to anyone… and I’m waiting to see at any time.❞ if the coalition and Mr. David Bradshaw Baldwin have the courage to show up.” Bradshaw was featured on television news Tuesday night, after copies of an arbitration decision were anonymously distributed in recent weeks to various media. Incumbent councillor Helen Fathers – who was among 10 people to sign Bradshaw’s nomination papers – said sharing of the document “has all the appearance of a smear campaign formulated by somebody close to the BCTF.” i see page 8

30,000 youths respond to questions on drugs, alcohol, sex, mental health

Teen survey reveals less substance use Jeff Nagel Black Press

Fewer teens South of the Fraser are drinking or taking drugs than five years ago, according to a comprehensive new study that paints a generally improved portrait of adolescent health in B.C. The McCreary Centre Society surveyed 30,000 B.C. students in grades 7 to 12 in 2013 and released its detailed report Tuesday on the Fraser South region, which includes Surrey, Delta and Langley school districts.

On substance use, the survey found fewer youth in Fraser South had ever tried alcohol (37 per cent), marijuana (21 per cent) or tobacco (16 per cent) compared to 2008, when those rates were 48 per cent, 26 per cent and 23 per cent, respectively. In 2008, 74 per cent of students surveyed had their first drink of alcohol before turning 15, but that dropped to 61 per cent in 2013. Fewer also reported binge drinking. The survey found 14 per cent of students have had sex (other than oral sex), down from

18 per cent in 2008 and below the provincial average of 19 per cent. Among youth who have had sex, most did so for the first time at age 15 or 16. Fraser South students were more likely to feel safe at school and less likely to feel bullied, the report says. But the findings were more troubling on issues related to mental health. Eight per cent of girls reported attempting suicide, up from six per cent in 2008. i see page 8

The last time I checked, few developers and builders were looking out for the homeless. How is it possible for people making minimum wages to even pay for housing, even the most basic type? Surrey has fumbled the ball in providing a secure winter shelter for the homeless, claiming there is no building available. Given the sheer number of buildings of all types in this city, that seems like a hollow excuse. Surrey is also no closer to providing some sort of permanent homeless shelter, in conjunction with organizations such as the Salvation Army, which would provide not just emergency housing, but job training, financial management courses and options which help people to live independently and successfully. Surrey needs look no farther than Langley’s Gateway of Hope to see a model that really seems to work. It does not stop homelessness, but it serves to provide a real alternative. The three main candidates for mayor have not devoted much attention to this problem. They and their slate mates, along with all the independent candidates who are running, need to take up this challenge. Frank Bucholtz writes Thursdays for the Peace Arch News. He is the editor of the Langley Times.

Victim’s family expresses hope for Berner’s future

Released fatal driver deemed a low risk Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

The woman responsible for killing toddler Alexa Middelaer while drinking and driving 6½ years ago was released from jail this week. Carol Ann Berner’s freedom follows 18 months behind bars, and includes five conditions she must abide by for the next year; until the end of her 30-month sentence. In a statement issued Tuesday, Alexa’s mother, Laurel Middelaer – who is head of Southridge Junior School in South Surrey – reiterates concerns that despite efforts to influence changes in the criminal justice system, sentences for those charged with impaired driving causing death or bodily harm remain lax.

“Those criminally charged with impaired driving including fatalities or bodily harm still hear the silent and reluctant voice from the court room,” Middelaer writes. “As a province, as a community, as families – simply put – we deserve better.” Berner, now 62, was found guilty in July 2010 of two counts of dangerous driving causing death and bodily harm and two counts of impaired driving causing death and bodily harm, after losing control of her car on a Delta street in May 2008, striking and killing four-year-old Alexa – who attended preschool in Crescent Beach – and seriously injuring her aunt. She was sentenced in November 2010 to 2½ years in jail and a five-year driving ban,

Surrey’s seven mayoral candidates address members of the city’s business community at an all-candidates debate Tuesday afternoon.

Economic strategies laid out for Surrey Board of Trade audience

Mayoral hopefuls vie for business vote Kevin Diakiw Black Press

Seven candidates for mayor had their chance to win over the business community Tuesday at Eaglequest Coyote Creek Golf Club. About 170 people packed the banquet hall to hear mayoral hopefuls at an all-candidates’ meeting sponsored by the Surrey Board of Trade. After their opening statements, candidates were asked several questions in a tightly controlled setting. First, they were asked what their economic strategy is for the city. Independent Vikram Bajwa said Surrey needs an international airport. Inddependent John Edwards told the crowd Surrey needs a convention centre and a third university. Surrey First’s Linda Hepner said there’s huge interest from business to locate in the city. She said it’s important to keep costs low for businesses while forging ahead with ideas like Innovation Boulevard (the health-sector hub between SFU Surrey and Surrey Memorial Hospital). The same methods can be used for agriculture and advanced manufacturing, she said. Safe Surrey Coalition’s Doug McCallum said a good economic strategy starts with a sound

foundation, which includes a safe city and well-considered policy. Once those things are established, he said the city would be ripe for a microchip-manufacturing plant, adding that Campbell Heights in South Surrey is perfect for such a facility. One Surrey’s Barinder Rasode said the city has to protect its industrial land base. “I want nothing more for my three children than not to have to cross a bridge to get to work,” Rasode said. She also said it’s crucial to support small businesses by making their communities safer and streamlining processes at city hall. Independent Grant Rice said there needs to be a greater focus on agriculture, as it outpaces most other industries in B.C. He said Surrey should work with agricultural firms to further refine their product before shipping abroad. Independent John Wolanski said Surrey should implement apprenticeship programs. Candidates were asked if they supported reducing the marginal effective tax rate on new business investment as a policy priority. McCallum said he was opposed to such a notion because it would benefit new businesses while negatively affecting existing ones. Rasode said other costs should be reduced

for businesses, such as the price of permits and the time it takes to get them. “So I think we have to look there to make sure those costs stay low,” Rasode said. Hepner said Surrey has a single permit fee, which benefits business, and a mobile app, with which they can apply for one. In regards to the lower marginal-tax rate, Hepner said the idea requires “more analysis” rather than just saying “let’s do it.” “I don’t think we can, I don’t think as a city we’re positioned to do it,” Hepner said. Surrey’s taxes are already low, she said, adding “I don’t know where we would find those savings.” Asked to wrap up, one candidate said he could bring a divisive group together. Rice said he’s heard the main three candidates in debate and said it wasn’t pretty. “The big three don’t play well in the sandbox,” Rice said in one of the lighter moments of the debate. He noted that it will be extremely tough for them to lead a divided council. He can manage it, he said. “I work at community building, this is my background,” Rice said. “I will work with compassion and leadership.” The election will be held Saturday, Nov. 15.

The movies are rolling and the corn is popping once again at South Surrey’s Rialto Theatre – part of a shakeup in the Peninsula movie theatre scene that has seen it, and the former Criterion 4, at 24 Avenue and King George Boulevard, become the latest additions to the Newton-based Hollywood 3 chain of neighbourhood theatres. The twin-screen Rialto, at 1732 152 St., reopened last Friday as Hollywood Cinemas Rialto – now a fully digital operation. Formerly part of the Criterion Entertainment chain, the theatre closed in April 28 after 20 years, with Criterion citing a “shrinking demand” for 35mm prints and prohibitive costs for shifting to digital. Hollywood 3 owner Rahim Manji, however, said he is fully committed to neighbourhood theatres and was willing to invest in digital conversion to better serve the local market. “We didn’t want to raise the ticket prices to pay for digital – that isn’t fair to the customer,” he said, noting he has retained existing staff. “They know both theatres and they know the people. There’s no reason to change that.” In an irony of the end of an era in theatre exhibition, the newly renamed Hollywood Cinemas Caprice 4, at 2381 King George Blvd., will keep 35mm equipment for one of its four screens – making it historically the last theatre of its kind in B.C. – for three weeks. That’s because director Christopher Nolan was determined to release his new film, Interstellar (which opened Wednesday), in 35 mm format – and gave the last eight or 10 film theatres in Canada a two-day lead on their digital competition as an incentive. Following that run, all four screens will be fully digital, Manji said, noting the only other principle changes, will be streamlining operations so that tickets are purchased at the concession counters, rather than separate box offices.

White Rock candidates have another unexpected chance to present their platforms to city voters in advance of the Nov. 15 civic election. An all-candidates meeting is scheduled for Nov. 10, 7:30 to 10 p.m. at White Rock Community Centre, 15154 Russell Ave. The meeting is sponsored by the citybased Democracy Direct Society, which president Raynard von Hahn said was incorporated in 2005 to “support and encourage improvement of the electoral process through fair and free elections and greater accountability and transparency.� Von Hahn said Democracy Direct anticipated holding an all-candidates meeting during this election, but was only able to get confirmation of the venue on Monday. While, as of Wednesday, only a couple of candidates had responded to personal invitations to the meeting, he was expecting 90 per cent of the candidates on the basis of it being the society’s first allcandidates meeting held during the last White Rock civic election.

Aerial spray to be used for insect infestation in Surrey, Delta

Pesticide to control moths Jeff Nagel

...Trust

Black Press

A gypsy moth infestation centred on Cloverdale has prompted the province to apply to carry out aerial pesticide spraying next year of 4,856 hectares of land in Surrey and 204 hectares in Delta. The targeted areas include most of Cloverdale from the Langley border between Highway 10 and 80 Avenue and extending as far west as 144 Street, taking in Sullivan and eastern Panorama Ridge. The other spray area is east of Highway 91 between Highway 10 and Highway 99 in Delta as well as the southwest corner of Panorama Ridge in Surrey. Forests ministry officials say they intend to use Foray 48B, a pesticide that contains the bacteria Btk and kills caterpillars after they ingest it but doesn’t harm humans, mammals, birds, fish plants, reptiles, amphibians or other insects. It’s approved for use on organic farms and would be used in four aerial applications between April 15 and June 30 next year. Btk is naturally present in the soil in B.C. and has been approved in Canada to kill gypsy moth larvae since 1961. The ministry says the destructive gypsy moth could, if not controlled, spread to other areas of B.C. via vehicles, containers,

Residents have until Dec. 6 to comment on the application and can find more details at http:// www.for.gov.bc.ca/hfp/gypsymoth/index.htm. B.C. hasn’t sprayed to control gypsy moths since a 2010 infestation in Richmond. The fuzzy leaf-munching caterpillars devour hundreds of types of shrubs and trees, threatening

fruit and tree orchards, blueberry farms and Garry oak stands on Vancouver Island. Nearly 200 male European gypsy moths were caught in pheromone traps over the summer in Cloverdale on trees along 64 Avenue. B.C. is committed to keeping the gypsy moth from becoming entrenched in the province. Failure to stop their advance could result in the U.S. tightening trade restrictions against Canada.

ith all due respect to Surrey’s chief elections officer, the Ministry of Community, Sport and Cultural Development and the opinion of an independent legal counsel – a spoiled ballot is a spoiled ballot. It’s hard not to agree with One Surrey campaigners that Saturday’s error in an advanced poll, rather than simply being a hiccup in the electoral process, is a significant compromise of the system. In a process that is supposed to be all about openness, accountability and transparency, it is simply not acceptable that two of One Surrey’s candidates appeared on the ballot without their party affiliation being listed. It’s not fair to supporters of One Surrey or to those who oppose them to not have such crucial identifying information on the ballot. Mistakes happen and misprints occur, granted. But an estimated 700 ballots were cast – and a further 100 went out in the mail – before the error was caught, and voting was temporarily suspended for almost an hour. No matter which way you slice it, that’s a significant chunk of the voting public – particularly when hotly contested seats can be decided by only a handful of votes. According to chief elections officer and city clerk Jane Sullivan, the ministry determined that steps she took were enough to ensure the integrity of the voting process, while the votes already cast through the flawed ballot have been “segregated and secured.” The votes will be part of the final count, we are told, even though it’s evident some have a chance of being based on an incomplete understanding of party affiliations. When it comes to the supposedly sacrosanct process of casting a vote, the people of Surrey deserve better. There should be no room for halfway-OK ballots or after-the-fact make-goods. It’s akin to being ‘halfway pregnant’ – there are no grey areas, only black-and-white fact. Even the potential for taint in a test is enough to invalidate an entire medical study; why should the important process of electing civic representatives be held to a lesser standard? The only right thing for officials to do, after being alerted to the error, was to suspend the polling, declare all the flawed ballots invalid and return the process to square one. That it would have been an inconvenience to voters, there is no doubt. That it could have been an embarrassment to the City of Surrey is likely. But inconvenience and embarrassment should have had no effect on the decision. When it comes to an all-important vote, and the will of the electorate, let the chips – and the results – fall where they may.

mere six inches from one another – along a median on the same stretch of road, and that’s where I draw the line. If I saw the first sign, assume that I didn’t pay attention to the 999 identical ones that followed. I know excessive signage has been a campaign practice for decades – maybe longer – but just because that’s the way things have always been done, doesn’t mean it shouldn’t change now. Adapt or die, as they say. You know what candidate would win my vote? The one who comes out and says creating a million or so election signs is an unnecessary expense, is largely ineffective – not to mention wasteful – and that he or she doesn’t believe in bombarding the community with them, and instead will focus on alternative ways to have their name and message recognized. And it’s not as though there are a lack of alternatives. Here are some free ideas, just off the top of my head (you’re welcome): Start an online campaign through social media. Advertise in a well-read newspaper. Produce a slick-looking website. Knock on doors and meet with as many people as you can. Stand outside the mall and hand out campaign fliers. Have intelligent and thoughtful answers to questions posed during all-candidates meetings. Any of those strategies would be more effective. Because if the only time I see your name is when it’s printed on a sign that’s coming through my windshield after a car crash, I’m probably going to vote for somebody else.

Civic leaders impact rail line Editor: I’ve just spent a couple hours looking at municipal council candidates’ websites in an attempt to determine who, among them, might have taken a strong stance in favour of moving those noisy, stinking, dangerous, environmentally hazardous trains from the Semiahmoo Peninsula waterfront. To my surprise, I can find no candidates who have taken any stand on this matter. Readers will note that White Rock candidates have prominently featured this issue in their platforms. This issue, at least as far as I am concerned, should be of primary importance in the forthcoming election. I would encourage all candidates to emphasize their positions on this matter. Paul Griffin, Surrey Q Moderator Gary Hollick, at the White Rock all-candidates meeting, dismissed questions about the BNSF as “falling under federal jurisdiction” (Frustrations air at W.R. debate, Nov. 4). We are the people who live along the rail line, not Ottawa or Warren Buffett. We are the ones who will be impacted by a derailment, spill or explosion. Does our city council know the contents of the increasing number of trains through White Rock? The increase alone is a problem, but the contents are a critical issue. Is the bridge on Semiahmoo First Nation land fixed? We, not some federally designated person, need to know the possible dangers and how close and prepared first responders are. How are people alerted if toxic gases are dispersed in the middle of the night? Who responds to an explosion or fire in the first few minutes? Who contains and cleans up a spill into the bay? Do we know there’s the ability for rapidly warning and removing persons at risk? Has there been training and is there ready access to combating, containment and detox equipment? What could council do to negotiate transport of toxic materials through a less-populated and environmentally significant route, keeping the few passenger trains? Susan Lindenberger, White Rock

The legality of discrimination Editor: The Law Society of B.C.’s move to reverse its original decision to approve the future Trinity Western University School of Law is a travesty. What does this say about the thousands of TWU graduates, the lawyers, teachers, doctors, nurses and business owners who are contributing to their communities? The Law Society ‘benchers’ are absolutely wrong on this one. What’s more, why doesn’t the LSBC just do away with the ‘benchers’ anyway, and put all of their

decisions up for popular vote? The law school doesn’t even open until 2016. So when did the lawyers of this province decide that the basic tenant of law is now “guilty until proven innocent”? They made this decision without a shred of evidence. There has not been one complaint against a TWU-graduated teacher since the 1991 the Supreme Court ruled on this same matter in regards to the TWU teachers program. The LSBC owes an apology to the 25,000 TWU graduates and to the students who are currently studying at Trinity. Religious and other minorities – take careful note. Should you be discriminated

against, don’t go to the lawyers of B.C. for help. They are the ones who have perpetrated it! Michael & Sandra Gorman, Surrey

Beyond the terrorist label Editor: Re: Preserving our freedom from within, Oct. 30 column Columnist Andrew Holota merely reiterates what has already been decided by Prime Minister Stephen Harper and apparently the RCMP.

He lends no credence to the distinct probability that the two perpetrators were mentally deranged; after all, a common theme in psychotic delusion is religion. The McNaughton Rules on criminal responsibility date from 1843. Notwithstanding both assailants are dead. Holota omits to mention that the government policy of ‘responsibility to protect’ as applied in Libya was in violation of international law, the Geneva Accords and the UN Charter… Little wonder Mr. Harper feels there is no need to look for “root causes.” Ergo what came first the chicken or the egg?

Letter writers encourage would-be voters to do their part in the Nov. 15 civic elections to preserve democracy.

Democratic freedom takes effort Editor: The voter turnout for the 2011 Surrey municipal election was 25 per cent. Yes, only one in four bothered. And this is for a government that has more impact on the day-to-day life of most of us than Victoria and Ottawa. At that election, all council elected were from one slate. This is not a criticism of the members or work of that council but a criticism of the attitude of the electorate. Is this really what democracy is supposed to be about? Just consider what the city has partial or total control over: safety and policing; sustainability, cleanliness of our environment, garbage and recycling; sports and recreation for children and adults; parks; some of our cultural activities; libraries; population growth, planning and control of development and infrastructure. Your recent excellent editorial on the need for a more obviously democratic council in Surrey (Incumbents already had their chance, Oct. 23 column) is surely of concern to all of us. There is going to be change. Two councillors are running for mayor, and one councillor has already won a seat in Victoria. For this election there are three slates, a group of two, plus independents. There are 42 candidates in total, eight more than last time. All slates claim to be ‘independents’ operating under one banner. Some newspaper editorials question this “independence.” They want to see a council that is at least perceived to be democratic, where there will be the chance of challenges. So what can we do about getting a balanced council? We need to look at who is out there and evaluate them. The information is available from the media, the Surrey Elections website or candidates’ literature. There are candidates who have run many times without success, some of them with the dedication and ability of being an asset to our city. There are people who have served on, or have stood for, higher levels of government. Some are on slates, some are independents. Whoever you choose, vote. Remember, you don’t have to vote for all nine. Just any you like. Semiahmoo Residents Association is hosting an allcandidates meeting on Monday, Nov. 10 at the Rotary Clubhouse in South Surrey Athletic Park, 6:30-9 p.m. Come and meet your candidates. David Cann, Semiahmoo Residents Association

Q When I read a while ago of South Asians making charges that the vandalism of election signs was racially motivated, I read it with hopes that the charge was without merit. I have been very cognizant of signage vandalism as I drive over all parts of Surrey, and I am sad to say that this charge seems to have merit. It makes me sick to think the fundamental rights of a democracy, the right to elect our representatives in a free manner, is being compromised by those who would take democracy into their hands and toss it into the gutter. We all share in this, because, in the end, we get the government we deserve. If we get a government that is elected in spite of widespread signage vandalism does that call into question the credibility of the election? It behooves all of us to think long and hard about what we truly value in our society. Canada has long been a land of opportunity, one in which people of all races have come seeking their fortune and the chance of a better life. Endemic to this is the right to take part, and even run for election, in an unfettered manner, consistent with our principles of freedom and respect for all. This is no less true of elections than it is when it comes to the importance of having access to all our democratic institutions, such as Parliament and our B.C. legislature. Safeguards must be in place so that these hallowed grounds can be both accessible as well as safe. We rely on security forces to make our Parliament safe. When it comes to election signage, we must rely on ourselves to be beacons of respect and openness in supporting the right of all to take part in the system with the knowledge they, too, regardless of racial or cultural heritage, shall have the same rights as all. That is what Canada has stood for ever since we became an independent country in 1867. While we have no required civics course in our high schools, we have to act as responsible parents in educating our children of the importance of protection of our election process. Election signs are a fundamental part of the process in a democracy. Please do your part to encourage respect for our elections, which election signs, are an integral part of – and are hallmarks of – any truly free society. If not us, whom? If not now, when?

Surrey 6 ‘misconduct’ could lead to hearing Black Press

A B.C. Supreme Court judge will decide Nov. 19 whether two men convicted in Surrey’s worst mass murder will be granted a hearing into allegations of police misconduct in the homicide investigation. In early October, Cody Haevischer and Matthew Johnston were found guilty of six counts each of first-degree murder and one of conspiracy to murder in the so-called Surrey Six case. They have yet to be sentenced, as their lawyers have requested that Justice Catherine Wedge stay the charges due to abuse of process. Haevischer and Johnston’s defence counsel have alleged police officers had sexual relationships with potential witnesses in the case, and that when arrested,

the accused were held in segregation under harsh conditions for an unduly lengthy period of time. Lawyers for Johnston and Haevischer – members of the Red Scorpion gang – want a full hearing into the allegations, and say their clients would take the stand if a hearing is ordered by the judge. (Neither testified at their murder trial). The Crown has argued none of the accusations of misconduct are serious enough to warrant throwing out six first-degree murder convictions. The pair were found guilty of conspiring and carrying out the murder of rival drug dealer Corey Lal, as well as killing his brother Michael, Ryan Bartolomeo, Eddie Narong, and innocent bystanders Ed Schellenberg and Christopher Mohan.

GET GEARED UP! One of the major fundraisers that keeps volunteer safety personnel operating on local mountains occurs Nov. 15-16 in Abbotsford. The annual Canadian Ski Patrol's (CSP) Winter Extreme Ski Show and Swap sees about 10,000 pieces of ski and snowboard equipment valued at approximately $1 million on consignment at the Ag-Rec building, selling for significant savings over new, said Denis Dion, swap manager. "You can completely outfit yourself or your family members for under $100," he said. Everything from boots to boards will be on hand, and each piece is safety inspected. Any helmets for sale are brand new. "We have extreme selection and extreme pricing." Nearly 95 per cent of the equipment is still new – just last year's models. "We don't know exactly how much we'll be getting until the

vendors show up," he added. The swap has been running since the late 1970s, said Dion, who took on the event chair position in 1994. From its humble beginnings in a church basement, the swap grew and needed more space. They went from the basement to an auditorium, then Tradex and now the Ag-Rec building. Between the Abbotsford event, and a similar one in Vancouver, these fundraisers generate enough money – about $100,000 – to keep CSP volunteers on the slopes in locales such as Hemlock, Manning and Seymour, where they are often the first responders to anyone who has a mishap while skiing inbounds. Any off-the-trail emergencies are handled by search and rescue teams. CSP funds its own first aid and avalanche training, and members pay to be a part of

the organization. All proceeds from the swap support CSP. Public consignment drop-off happens Nov. 14 from 7 pm to 9 pm, and the show is open from 9 am to 5 pm Nov. 15, and 10 am to 3 pm Nov. 16. Cheques for public consignment gear sold will be

White Rock Elks to host open house on Nov. 8

On hand for the open house will be Surrey-White Rock MLA Gordon Hogg, White Mayor Wayne Baldwin and Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts, among other community leaders. The groups who rent the 2,100-sq.-ft. hall – including dance groups, karate, tai chi and more – will also be on hand to share with visitors all the activities that take place under the Elks’ roof. “We have been in this building here since 1987,” president Thomas Corless told Peace Arch News. “But the Elks have been in the community since 1958. That’s 55-plus years of service. “Our theme is caring for our community.” Second-vice-president Lois Duke said the perception of the Elks is

The White Rock Elks will open their doors to the public Saturday. They aim to dispel misconceptions that the club is a club only for men, as it was decades earlier (left). The George Lounge, Duke noted, is a welcoming and warm environment where people can enjoy good music, the ever-popular karaoke and mingle with friends. “I can come in and sit at any table,” she said. Corless noted that there are not many venues in the area like the Elks Lounge, which is always open to the public. No membership is required, he said. “There are no organizations like

Over the years, the Elks have evolved from a mens-only club to a growing group of men and women of all ages. Cowie, who is married to Corless, noted that it was only in 1998 that she was allowed to join the organization, after a nation-wide referendum. “A lot of the older folks quit when that happened, but they came back when they realized…” “– women were useful,” Corless interjected, laughing. Since that referendum, there has been a female president and a shift in mentality, Duke said. “There’s such an opportunity for great possibilities here. When you have like-minded people come together, there’s synergy that is created. The sum is greater than the individual parts. But what needs to happen is action, so they can become concrete, real and tangible,” Duke said. The Elks are supporters of community organizations and initiatives, including their three children’s camps – located in Aldergrove, Salmon Arm and Denman Island – as well as the B.C. Hearing Resource Centre. “We’re trying to get more involved in local charities,” Duke said. “The idea of looking after your own backyard first, then spreading out. If you come together, I think more can happen. “Right now, we’re trying to get the word out that we exist. Many people didn’t know about us, what we do or why we’re here. “We’re here for our community.” For more information on the Elks, events or membership, go to www.whiterockelks.ca or call 604538-4016.

Bishop set to visit St. Mark’s Anglican Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

History will be made – twice, at 8 a.m. and 10 a.m. – on Sunday, Nov. 16 at St. Mark’s Anglican Church in Ocean Park, when the congregation will welcome the Right Rev. Melissa Skelton to preach and celebrate Holy Communion. “It is a big deal because of the gifts that she brings,” church volunteer Brian Walks said of Skelton. “We’re making church history here.” A year ago, Skelton, 63, became the first woman and the first American to be elected bishop of the 135-yearold Anglican Diocese of New Westminster. Ordained last March, she was also the first to have had a career – she was a brand manager at Procter & Gamble – outside of the church prior to ordination. Walks, who attended the Vancouver event, said Skelton is known for her talents in congregational development, something he said is “lacking throughout the Christian church.” At her last ministry post in Seattle’s St. Paul’s Episcopal Church, the congregation tripled in her nine-year tenure. Her visit to St. Mark’s, where the congregation is in good shape, is “for us to get to know her and for her to get to know us,” Walks said. She plans to visit a different diocese church each Sunday, “to get a handle on the pulse of congregations.” Since becoming bishop, “she has brought a change of

focus,” Walks said. “She wants us to look forward rather than look back to issues we have been dealing with in the last 20 years.” He cited the blessing of same-sex marriages as an example of things “not on her agenda.” Planning for Skelton’s visit began in the spring, and has involved around 50 parishioners. In addition to leading a traditional Anglican service, Skelton will present congregation member Ken Turnham with the Order of the Diocese of New Westminster. The distinction is given “to people who have given significantly of time and talent over the years.”

Walks said in Turnham’s case, the generosity has spanned

about 25 years. Anyone interested is welcome to attend one

of the Nov. 16 services. St. Mark’s is located at 12953 20 Ave.

Production to mark 100th anniversary of the war.

Mary’s Wedding opens Nov. 11

Show pays tribute to WWI Peninsula Productions is marking the 100th anniversary of the beginning of the First World War with a sincere, heartfelt and touching tribute to the sacrifices of a generation of Canadians who were forever changed by the conflict. Mary’s Wedding, a play by Stephen Massicote, will run Nov. 11 (2 p.m.) and Nov. 12-15 (8 p.m.) at The Black Box Theatre at White Rock Elementary School, 1273 Fir Street. Directed by Wendy Bollard, the 70-minute one-act play traces the relationship of two young people who typify the era. In the early months of 1914, Mary (Julia Siedlanowska), a recent immigrant from England, and Charlie (Harrison McDonald) an Albertan farm boy both seek refuge from a sudden storm. In the midst of the deluge, they find not just shelter – but each other. Six years later, on the

eve of her wedding, Mary has a dream about Charlie. She dreams of their love, of his innocence and courage. In her dream, she is with Charlie as he joins C Squadron of Lord Strathcona’s Horse, with him as the war evolves into bitter trench fighting, and with him as he fights in the historic Battle of Moreuil Wood. Blending scenes of Prairie thunderstorms and polite tea parties and the horrors of war, Massicote’s sensitive script finds a special beauty that makes the act of remembrance vivid and meaningful to current generations. The show is presented with a warning that it is not suitable for children under the age of 11. Tickets ($20) are on sale through Tourism White Rock, or online at www. peninsulaproductions. org or www. brownpapertickets. com/event/889179

1. Public safety 2. Transportation 3. Sustainable economic development I want Surrey to reach its potential as a great place to live and work by continuing to attracting new families, new businesses and new investment. People need to feel safe, and I am committed to 130 more officers on patrol in the next 24 months, while tackling root causes of crime including addictions, mental health and homelessness. I will also advocate for the establishment of a secure Mental Health Facility in Surrey, and have committed to Phase One of a new Light Rail Transit line to be completed by 2018. Under our Build Surrey: the Next Generation program, we’ll add even more rinks, parks, pools, playgrounds and fields for future generations.

1. Public Safety 2. Transportation 3. Fiscal Responsibility I believe that Surrey needs to get back to simple government that provides good services for residents within a responsible fiscal framework. Public safety is at the top of my priority list. Surrey immediately requires more RCMP and bylaw officers for an increased presence on our streets. Greater public transparency and investment in tackling the root causes of crime are also necessary. Surrey needs a strong champion for transportation investment from the federal and provincial governments, and an end to wasteful spending at City Hall. As the former Mayor, I will bring experience and leadership back to the city.

1. Crime 2. Transportation 3. Smart, Responsible Growth We must fix Surrey’s crime problem and make public safety our number one priority. The wait-and-see approach hasn’t worked. The One Surrey plan includes reducing response times by 50%, doubling the number of officers on the road, hiring 200 community safety personnel, including bylaw officers, implementing a Community Court to help chronic offenders, and providing more addictions and mental health resources. Getting people and goods moving across the city is also important, as is managing growth in a smart and responsible way. To accomplish these goals, we have to control spending at City Hall and improve accountability.

1. Influence of Developers 2. Electoral Reform 3. Climate Change, Food I concede that crime is the number issue in this election. However, politicians can’t solve crime. We need to start by rebuilding our communities and looking after each other. We need to lift families out of poverty so that young people have a chance to succeed. We need to tackle the issues of addiction and mental health. Surrey needs a council that does not owe favours when they arrive in office. We need a ward system so that communities have a voice on council. We need solid environmental stewardship, and a council that can say no to harmful development.

My slogan is simple: “Get Involved. Demand Change.” We must improve public safety in Surrey – businesses are losing confidence, young people are flocking to nearby cities, and most importantly, people feel unsafe in their own backyards. We need a comprehensive crime reduction strategy that addresses the short term and long term issues. Our city needs vibrant, innovative ideas to remain a great place to raise a family and build a business. I will advocate for our city’s growth through accountable government, transparency, and fiscal responsibility. I will bring new ideas, new leadership, and be completely accessible to the citizens of Surrey.

2. Social Issues 3. Transportation

As a Surrey resident, I’ve strived hard to energetically be involved in the community. My skills in Cantonese, English, Punjabi, and Hindi have been fundamentals tools. I’m passionate about living in BC fastest growing city for the past 27 years. My next steps are to get neighborhoods involved in the safety of our homes, kids and of the environment. As a Realtor I’ve learned a lot about planning, communicating, understanding, and cultures to assist me with my road ahead. My main goal is not to act as a politician, but a mother and a concerned citizen, taking a stand for others.

I’m concerned about public safety in our city. Surrey, with its diversity and culture is the envy of the province. Unfortunately, crime is overshadowing this beautiful, vibrant city. My slogan “TIME FOR CHANGE” is my action plan to get the community involved. An immediate strategy for a community policing model is crucial to get the business and citizens rallying to reclaim Surrey. Additional police officers are vital, however, their service delivery must ensure more focus on community safety and participation. It’s Time For Change to ensure Surrey continues to remain vibrant and be the destination for new business and families.

Hi my name is Tanvir Bhupal and I’ve lived in Surrey for the past 22 years. If elected, I will bring about an implementation plan for a much needed independent police force. I will propose an affordable and efficient community patrol program to assist our current police officers. I believe strongly in maintaining the transparency and accountability of all elected officials. With all the rental suites in the city, parking has become a major issue for our residents. We must keep transportation and traffic concerns at the forefront of all community development plans. Let’s make Surrey safe once again!

Surrey is a fabulous home. We are having growing pains. Crime results from society neglecting the needs of disadvantaged people. I will toward building effective intervention and rehabilitation resources. We will grow dramatically in coming years. Industrial and residential growth demands social service growth. I will be pressing for schools, parks and facilities to be built concurrently with development. Our recent council has overcome years of anti investment politics. I will encourage a council that invites continuing growth. I will propose an aggressive plan to ensure that business leaders and provincial & federal governments help with our financial needs.

I want to improve safety for the citizens of Surrey and develop an achievable crime reduction strategy which includes greater police presence on the streets, and a community court. We also need a comprehensive transportation plan to connect town centres. I want to focus on our natural environment and use this resource as an opportunity to encourage investment and job creation. I want to balance our residential growth with commercial and industrial growth, and bring jobs to Surrey. I’ll strengthen efforts to protect farm land, and develop a value added sector in agriculture to encourage farming and quality food products.

I believe we need to ensure Surrey has a strong voice regionally, provincially and federally and that we are at the table making sure Surrey’s voice is heard with regards to transportation, safety, education, social and environmental issues. I support the practice of “no call is too small” policing, where every call is attended to and believe we need to implement that same strategy in Surrey. I strongly support economic development with the implementation of sustainable development practises, environmental and biodiversity assessments should be a priority. The well-being of our rapidly growing population of all ages should be paramount..

Dear Surrey: If any of you live paycheck to paycheck, or struggle to pay the rent, or take a bus in the rain after work, then you don’t have any representation on city council. If you make more than $130,000 then sleep easy, knowing that your mayor understands what your life is like. This strikes me as a threat to representative democracy. You don’t have to vote for me, but understand that this isn’t going to improve unless someone points out the problem. If you elect me I promise nothing except to give 2/3rds of my bloated salary to charity.

Dhanoya, Nav IND

I’m committed to working for: Safer streets, better transit, and healthier communities. We need to increase the number of RCMP officers on the road and implement a comprehensive mental health strategy. We need more buses and frequent transit services. We need to ensure our communities are vibrant, and that community associations have easier access to grants. Over my years as a volunteer with many groups, I learned that, when given the chance, people want to help make their city a better place. Surrey is a growing city but we need to ensure it grows for the benefit of all residents.

1) Hire more RCMP officers, and Community Safety officers. 2) Better Translink services and reducing Bridge tolls for Surrey residents and businesses. 3) A New Surrey Convention Centre to promote business and trade shows in Surrey. New Recreation Centres and Libraries in the City. 4) A UBC Science Campus in Surrey for medicine, engineering, research and pharmacy students. 5) Streamline business and development applications approvals within 45 days of applying. 6) Cost reduction for Community events i.e. Vaisakhi Parade, Cloverdale Rodeo, etc… 7) Support for Mental health, homeless shelters, and sustainable housing in the city.

I am dedicated to fixing Surrey’s crime problem and empowering youth to make positive life choices. Surrey can become one of the safest cities in Canada if the leadership at City Hall makes it a priority and starts investing in public safety programs. Based on my personal experiences in the community, as a social activist, and as an officer, I know the One Surrey public safety plan will work. I am passionate about mentoring youth and raising awareness about how sports and fitness can help divert our kids from a life of drugs and gangs.

1. Ward system 2. Independent police force 3. Transparency

1. Crime reduction 2. Increased public safety 3. More transportation services

I would like to see more available money in the workplace. The working poor sector. Also, Collections billings are too personal. They start calling everyday.

My intentions if elected is to change antiquated policies, that surrey has operated on for too long. I would like to bring more accountability in where our elected officials represent all areas of surrey. I believe decisions should be made public and accessible for every member of our community. I believe the city should have its own dedicated police force, independent of the RCMP. I’m passionate for young families and their economic future and ask for your support to take this challenge to bring in new ideas to City Hall. I look forward to share our ideas with voters.

First, I would increase the number of police officers to comparable levels to our neighbouring municipalities. Second, I would examine and implement strategies for crime prevention. Like expanding community watch programs, after school outreach programs, and forcing the demolition of derelict and abandoned properties. Third, I would work towards crime reduction, by cooperating with our community partners to reduce poverty in our most vulnerable neighbourhoods. And finally, transportation is the cornerstone to a healthy and vibrant community. I will push for increased transit service and keep the pressure up to expand rapid transit lines throughout our city.

1. Public Safety 2. Infrastructure Deficit 3. Accountability, Transparency, Accessibility As a life long Surrey resident I have seen massive changes with the growth in our city. The priorities of the one party at city hall have not matched those of the average person. Their priorities have been sweetheart P3 deals with developers. The people we meet on the street tell us their issues are: public safety, transportation and roads, lack of recreational facilities for youth, places for seniors to safely socialize, and support the most needy in our community – those with mental health and addictions. Team Surrey will hold city hall accountable and speak up for you.

1. Public Safety 2. Transportation 3. Fiscal Responsibility

2. Vibrant Surrey Economy 3. Public Transit No taxes increases for home owners 65 and older for 3 years. No salary increases for Mayor and Councilors for 3 years Enhanced gang task force. Local police for Surrey. NBA (basketball) for Surrey. Smart for economy, brings millions of American annually to Surrey, create jobs. Athletes are excellent role model for youth and children. Great entertainment. Solve homelessness and lack of access to basic services that are root cause of non-gang crime. SkyTrain and subsidized Light Rail on King George connecting 108 to 72, and along 104 connecting surrey central to Guildford mall. Contracting out services. Secured bike lanes.

I am an entrepreneur who is very passionate about Surrey and all of the potential it has to offer residents. This belief is something that I bring to volunteering my time with a range of organizations working to contribute positively to the broader community. I am running for Council with the Safe Surrey Coalition because crime, irresponsible use of taxpayers’ money and political aspirations are getting in the way of good government that is about the people. I am fighting for public safety to become the number one priority at City Hall and for immediate action to be taken.

I care about responsible fiscal leadership, and will continue to use my professional accounting background to further facilitate financial policies and strategies, while ensuring public funds are used in the most beneficial and responsible manner.

Hoffmann, Gary

Candidate did not provide requested information or photo by entry deadline.

I am a mother of five children, and I am proud to say that I have raised my family in the wonderful City of Surrey. However, becoming a Block Watch captain in my neighbourhood of Fleetwood really awakened me to the problems of crime that all residents encounter, and the gaps that exist in maintaining public safety. I have joined the Safe Surrey Coalition because I believe in public service, particularly when it comes to our community. It is time to get away from politics by bringing commitment, dedication and most importantly action back to City Hall.

As a business owner, I want to encourage private sector investment in Surrey and create a climate of investment and innovation. Encouraging companies to relocate to Surrey while fostering a sense of entrepreneurial spirit means new jobs for our growing population. I will also ensure we preserve our natural environment for future generations with such programs as our Green Surrey initiative and our Bioconservation Strategy which will protect 10,000 acres of land in its natural state. I will also work hard to put Surrey’s transit needs first at the table with Translink and the Provincial Government.

1. Growth outpacing Infrastructure 2. Public Safety 3. Accountability, Transparency, Accessibility

My priorities will be crime reduction, community inclusion and sustainability. Addressing the roots of crime such as addiction, mental health, homelessness and poverty continues to be a top priority, as we work to build strong, connected neighbourhoods where people feel safe. One of Surrey’s greatest strengths is our multicultural and diverse nature and we must continue to ensure all people feel welcome not only to live and work in Surrey, but to celebrate what makes them unique. I advocate for social policy and support the Social Plan for Well Being, the Poverty Reduction Strategy and the Master Plan for Homelessness.

Surrey has changed. Transportation and recreational infrastructure has not kept pace with growth. Seniors and families need to feel secure again and youth need the ability to socialize in a safe environment. We need to make public safety a priority for every department in the City and add more police, bylaw officers and youth workers. Obtaining more supports for those who are living on our streets with Mental Health and Addiction challenges must be a priority. TeamSurrey will work with together with all levels of government to obtain the additional financial supports required to build a stronger city.

1. Livable neighbourhoods 2. By-law enforcement 3. Municipal spending review

1. Safer Communities 2. Affordable Housing 3. Sustainable Growth

I believe that relevant and accessible community services are the key to building and sustaining a thriving City. Surrey needs responsible and thoughtful investment in infrastructure and programs to allow young children to explore their potential, seniors to live an active life, workers to compete and win a global knowledge economy and families to build memories and experiences here at home. We will use community forums and technology like the My Surrey App to better understand what residents need, so we can deliver what Surrey needs while remaining an affordable community to live in.

I am opposed to a council hand-picked in the mayor’s living room, a $395,412 salary for a city manager, a “white elephant” city hall that was part of municipal expenses rising 16% last year, Richard Branson getting $420,000 at Surrey’s Regional Economic Summit, the mayor making $150,000 of which one-third is tax-free, a million in uncapped contributions to Surrey First at election time, and free trips for politicians to England, India, China, Colombia, Italy and Puerto Rico. If the Surrey circus is to remain the same each year, at least the clowns should change. Fight repeat offenders – don’t re-elect them!

The overall platform seeks connect the dots to create a safer and more sustainable community. To achieve this we must enforce our bylaws, increase our police force. We must also expand our transit options. We should also engage our youth, create sustainable affordable housing in all markets which includes shelters, and protect our infrastructure, defending our forests, rivers, parks farmland, firefighters and emergency responders.

1. Public Safety 2. Transportation 3. Fiscal Responsibility

As a Surrey resident and a small business developer, I am passionate about fueling small business owners and entrepreneurs with tax incentives and educational tools. Further, as a professional having worked in Hospitality, Utilities and Transportation, I will bring my 15+ years of education and experience into the City Hall making transportation efficiency, crime reduction and entrepreneurship top priorities. In addition, I will replace the ineffective Police Committee with a much more practical, unified system with free information flow that will include your neighborhood participation in reducing crime.

As the editor of the Surrey Now newspaper for the past 7 years, I have seen how the current Mayor and Council have neglected the community’s needs in favour of political glamour projects. I have a young family, and I’m running because of a sincere interest in making a contribution to improving Surrey for all citizens. The Safe Surrey Coalition is committed to Public Safety as our top priority. Our streets require greater enforcement presence, and we must invest in programs to tackle the root problems of crime. It is time to bring City Hall back to the people.

1. Our seniors programs 2. Recovery houses 3. Secondary suites and associated problems. Having served as Fire Department liaison for the Seniors Advisory and Accessibility Committee (SAAC), my goal is to ensure our seniors have access to resources to keep them active physically and socially. Our committee has dealt with personal safety, fire safety, finance, wills, seniors abuse and neglect. Also, in the last two years, the provincial government has become re-involved with recovery houses. 60 to 70 percent of these houses are not registered with the Assisted Living Registry. We need to create a dedicated team to ensure these houses are fire safe and more importantly, safe for the community.

1. Sustainability 2. Social services 3. Culture

As a city, we are respected regionally, provincially and nationally, and I will work hard to keep this image of Surrey alive. I see a city with Light Rapid Transit connecting our city centres, and development of the city centre which will attract new businesses to Surrey. I continue to be a strong proponent of our Crime Reduction Strategy, which stresses identifying the root causes of crime and intervening at an early stage. I also believe council needs to heavily lobby the Federal Government for changes in the Criminal Justice System to stop the release of dangerous offenders into cities.

My family and I have lived in many neighbourhoods across Surrey. One of the most surprising things that I have seen is the way that City Hall currently favours certain areas over others. This is completely wrong, as every resident has the same right to good services and elected officials who listen to their concerns. The Safe Surrey Coalition is about bringing back simple government. On public safety, we need immediate leadership, focus and action. Politics can be very self serving. I am motivated differently, and am running to truly give back to a city that I l love.

I want to obtain community feedback about crime and community issues, and encourage communication between council, the community and police. We need to addresses causes of crime such as mental instability, poverty, lack of employment opportunities and drug addiction. I also want to encourage responsible development while keeping the city affordable to encourage home ownership and opportunities to work in Surrey.

Public Safety is of paramount importance to residents and business alike - without this we don’t have a successful City. Transparency needs to occur in all aspects of our City! As Block Watch Captain I was not informed that property crime nearly doubled until after the quarter had finished. Public Safety should be public information, not reserved for the privileged. I believe all City Centres should be treated equally with the list of amenities and projects driven by the community, not dictated by the City. One Surrey was created to give you a voice, please use it on November 15th.

We need a City Hall that is responsive to residents, respected, inclusive and openminded; where access to services, staff and councillors is open to all. Surrey needs accessible, affordable and sustainable public transit including rapid buses, a light rail system, more police officers to address crime, with a balanced approach including more housing and supports, and more responses to those with mental health and addictions. I will foster and profile our multicultural heritage, art and creative industries.

NOVEMBER 11, 2014 Why do we wear a poppy in remembrance of our veterans? The poppy became a beloved and honoured symbol at the beginning of the 20th century and, even now, is worn proudly on the left lapel in memory of our war veterans. This is why, on November 11 — Remembrance Day—we honour the courage of those who gave their lives in wartime, sacrificing themselves for their country and for peace, by wearing this bright red flower close to the heart.

THE POPPY THAT FLOWERED ON SOLDIERS’ GRAVES During the Napoleonic wars at the beginning of the 19th century, these mysterious, blood-red flowers were seen growing on soldiers’ graves once the battlefield was deserted. Then they disappeared as mysteriously as they came. More than 100 years passed and, after the Great War, they flowered anew around the graves in Flanders, France. After various tests, it was discovered that the soil in this area was rich in limestone from buildings destroyed during the First World War,

creating favourable conditions for the poppies to flower. Once the war was over the limestone dust was absorbed and the poppies disappeared. SYMBOL OF LIFE AND OF HOPE The poppy campaign begins on the last Friday in October and continues until November 11. With the funds raised, the Royal Canadian Legion is able to give financial help to veterans of the Canadian Armed Forces who are in need and can subsidize healthcare establishments, research, the purchase of medical equipment and homecare services.

THANKS TO OUR VETERANS Gordon L. Cammack “Our Best Salesman” Enlisted Kent Regiment, Kingston Ontario 1941. Transferred to BC 1941. Saw overseas duties with 1st Battalion, RCR’s. Fought in Italian Campaign 1942-1945.

Strong in wake of tragedy L

ast month’s tragic incidents in Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, Quebec and Ottawa, Ontario were ones of deep sadness for me, as they were for people across Japreet Lehal this country and around the world. My condolences are with the families of Warrant Officer Patrice Vincent and Cpl. Nathan Cirillo. On Oct. 20, Vincent was deliberately hit by a car while on duty and later succumbed to his injuries. Cirillo was volunteering at the National War Memorial on Oct. 22 – guarding the cenotaph which honours veterans and those who have died or might die while serving their country – when he was shot. The memories of these courageous individuals will live on in our hearts and minds forever. As we grieve their loss and begin the healing process, let’s all be inspired by their commitment to Canada.

‘Flapper-style’ show to benefit women’s centre A “flapper-style” dance party benefiting Sources Women’s Place Resource Centre is set to get underway Nov. 15. The fundraiser, to be held at the Royal Canadian Legion Crescent Branch 240 (2643 128 St.), will feature original sounds of the “roaring ‘20s and flirty ‘30s” courtesy of Alexander Browne and his Aristocrats. Browne, a longtime Peace Arch News reporter, has put together an eight-piece orchestra of all-star talent skilled at distilling the authentic atmosphere of the Prohibition era from genuine orchestrations of the time, in some cases even using original period instruments. “There’s a jaunty lift and an elegant devil-may-care atmosphere to all the music of this period – even as the gilded ’20s slipped into the darker days of the Depression,” Browne said. “It provides the perfect time machine, allowing us to indulge our fantasies of New York and London and Paris in the `20s and early ’30s; a magical soundtrack full of echoes of the Boardwalk Empire-Great Gatsby-Downton Abbey era, from the Charleston to the beginnings of Swing.

“The Aristocrats and I are delighted to bring this music to local audiences and fans who have wondered when we would play an affordable public event in our hometown again – and we’re thrilled that proceeds will benefit Women’s Place, which has been a favourite cause of ours over the years.” Sources Women’s Place director Denise Darrell said the event is not only a chance to have fun ‘Art Decostyle,’ but also to show support for “essential services provided to women in crisis because of violence in their lives, and/or living in poverty.” “We are working to maintain a safe place for women to make healthy changes in their lives and build a future free from violence and poverty,” she said. “We are providing more ‘basic needs’ assistance to women than ever before. Funds raised at the dance will go toward the hot lunch program, provided on a drop-in basis for women and their children – for some this is the only healthy meal they will have all day.” Tickets are $20 at the door, or can be reserved by calling 604-8336156 (after 6 p.m.) or by emailing wpdance@sourcesbc.ca

Annual auxiliary fundraiser

Linen sale for PAH Members of Peace Arch Hospital Auxiliary Society’s Kwatcha Group will host their 30th linen sale this weekend at First United Church in White Rock – and if past sales are any indication, it will be busy. “We’ve been doing it for a long time and it’s quite a successful fundraiser,” said Diane Perrie. “They come from the Island, they come from North Vancouver… they watch for it. They start lining up probably at 8:30 (a.m.).”

The sale is to run from 9:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Friday (Nov. 7) and from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday (Nov. 8), with items to include collectibles, linen, doilies and more. Perrie said a recent tally puts funds raised for the hospital through the linen sale alone at more than $130,000. “That’s quite a sum of money,” she said. “I was quite surprised when I added it all up.” First United Church is located at 15385 Semiahmoo Ave.

Cross-country season wraps up in Victoria

Surrey runners finish on provincial podium Rick Kupchuck Black Press

Nathan Tadesse has won the gold medal in the Senior Boys category at the B.C. High School Cross Country Championships Saturday at the West Shore Parks and

Recreation Complex in Victoria. The Grade 12 North Surrey Secondary student finished the 6.4-km course in 20:35, 13 seconds better than runner-up Sean Bergman of Kelowna Secondary. “I’ve been training hard for this,”

said Tadesse, 17. “We had Canadian Legions pretty late for track, I was done in midAugust. After that, I took a week off then I started building my mileage. I peaked at the right time for this.”

Five local athletes placed in the top 10 in a field of 235. Michael Milic of Seaquam placed seventh, Connor Jackson of White Rock Christian Academy was eighth and Sterling Ginther of Earl Marriott was ninth.

Chelsea Ribeiro of Semiahmoo Secondary was the top local athlete among the 225 racers in the Senior Girls group, placing 12th in 16:04, 64 seconds behind the winner, Hannah Bennison of Vernon. The girls race covered 4.3 km.

White Rock football squad now prepares for playoffs

Atom Titans first on the gridiron Though playoffs – set to begin next week – will determine the ultimate champions of the Vancouver Mainland Football League, the atom-division White Rock-South Surrey Titans already have one notch in their belt after claiming a regular-season title last weekend. Playing on their home turf at South Surrey Athletic Park on Sunday, the Titans defeated New Westminster’s Royal City Hyacks 30-14 and finished the VMFL regular season with a record of 9-0-1 – good enough for top spot in the 12-team atom bracket. The Titans’ offence was let by Marley and Max Reiffer, who scored two touchdowns apiece, while kicker Aiden Robins booted a trio of two-point converts to round out the team’s scoring. Bud Beliveau, Amir Gill, Hudson Bromley, Wyatt Pendergast and Nick Napper were the defensive leaders for White Rock. Elsewhere on the gridiron, White Rock’s peewee team lost to the Cloverdale Wildcats 40-0, and their playoff fate hangs in the balance, with one regular-season game remaining on Nov. 9. The Titans’ bantam squad, meanwhile, won on the weekend, beating the Vancouver Trojans 49-6. The association’s flag-division teams will wrap up their season this weekend at the VMFL flag jamboree in Coquitlam. Elsewhere in Surrey last weekend, the

Cloverdale was led by Rajin Chahal, who scored two touchdowns, while Jacob Russ added one. The Lions finished the regular season in sixth place, with a record of 5-5.

At the junior bantam level, the North Surrey Eagles defeated the North Delta Longhorns 44-24, thanks in large part to Jello Juatco, who paced the victors’ attack with four touchdowns. Antonio Pamintuan also had two major

scores, and Emmanuel Odong kicked for eight total points. The win lifted the Eagles to a 9-1-0 record, which puts them in first-place finish, just ahead of the 8-1-1 Longhorns. – Nick Greenizan

Fraser Downs horse racing Breeders Classic The stakes are high, the horses are ready and the riders are preparing as B.C.’s most prestigious harness racing event approaches. On November 11, Cloverdale will host the Breeders Classic Day at Fraser Downs Racetrack – B.C.’s live harness racing action at its best. The finest B.C.-bred horses and top drivers will take to the track and race to compete for over $300,000 in purses. After four grueling legs already behind them, the most able horses are being geared up for the big day – and what is surely to be a payday for many of the drivers.

Eagles open hoops season with victory Rick Kupchuk Black Press

A very young men’s basketball team from Kwantlen Polytechnic University (KPU) erased a 10-point halftime deficit and went on to an 84-82 win Friday over the Columbia Bible College (CBC) Bearcats in the first game of their Pacific Northwest (PACWEST) Conference season. With eight first-year players on their 12-man roster, the KPU Eagles trailed the Bearcats 37-27 at halftime then put up 31 points in the third quarter to take a 58-57 lead into the final period. The lead changed hands 10 times in the final period, but the Eagles got the road win, and a first-ever victory for rookie head coach Vladimir Nikic. “We showed that we can be mentally tough. We were down in the first half but we were able to adjust and in the second half we played with more integrity,” said Nikic. “I’m happy with the end result, again it was the mental toughness that helped to get us through. Everyone played really well, and overall it was a team win.” Delta’s Matt Cooley, one of the rookies on the team, netted 20 points and added 13 rebounds. Second-year guard and Panorama Ridge Secondary graduate Obi Udevi also had 20 points and added nine rebounds, with Brendan Bailey tallying 12 points.

Jaiten Rana, a Delview Secondary graduate, contributed 11 points while Trevor Schultz snared nine defensive rebounds. A huge third quarter was also the key to a win by the KPU Eagles women’s team Friday at CBC. Leading 24-19 at the half, KPU outscored their hosts 24-11 in the third period to take a 48-30 advantage into the fourth. Eagles guard and Fleetwood Park graduate Shilpa Khanna was the top scorer for KPU with 14 points, with Amelia Worrell adding 11 and third-year guard Haeley Williams scoring nine. Amber-Lee Kavanagh was the top rebounder with seven, one more than teammate Samantha McPhail. “We have to gel as a team now after a lot of change since the preseason,” said Eagles head coach Dan Nayebzadeh. “In the first half, we felt our way through some trouble and then came around in the second. We were positive with ourselves and when we do that we play better.” Both teams will play twice at the Surrey campus this week, hosting the Capilano Blues Friday night and the Quest Kermodes on Saturday. Women’s games start at 6 p.m. both nights, followed by the men at 8 p.m. Fans bringing a non-perishable food item to either game will be admitted free as part of a KPU food drive for the Surrey Food Bank.

Families are invited to attend, but are asked to remember that only those 19 or older are permitted to place bets, and to always play for fun, not to make money. The day caters to both seasoned horseplayers and racing beginners. Fraser Downs provides on-hand Wagering Ambassadors who can offer expertise on how to read the program and tote board, how

to understand what the odds mean, how to place bets, as well as answer any other pertinent questions. Then, it’s a matter of choosing from the self-serve or personal wagering windows, and getting ready for the heart-pounding experience of a live sporting event. From the thrill of the race, the highstake wagers, the pounding of hooves on the track, and the quick pace of a drive race down to the wire, all combined with the enjoyment of meeting a favored horse or rider, the Breeders Classic at Fraser Downs is an event not to miss, and one that will create many moments never to be forgotten.

Loss knocks football team out of race for second place

Panthers sunk by Knights Rick Kupchuk Black Press

A chance at clinching second place slipped past the Lord Tweedsmuir Panthers in wet, slippery conditions Friday afternoon on their home field. Plagued by four turnovers, the Cloverdale team fell 26-14 to the St. Thomas More Knights, and dropped out of the race for second place in the Southern Conference of Senior AAA high school football. “We fumbled seven times and lost four of them, including one on our five-yard line shortly before half. They scored three plays later to make it 7-0 at halftime,� said Panthers head coach Kurt Thornton. “You can’t win when you turn the ball over that much.� The win left the Knights with a 6-1 won-lost record while Lord Tweedsmuir fell to 4-2 with one game still remaining on their schedule. The Panthers will play in Kelowna Friday night, against

Against St. Thomas More, Panthers running back Caleb Abraham carried the ball 21 times for 212 yards, scoring on a nine-yard touchdown run. Christian MacMillan added the second major score on a one-yard quarterback sneak, and Jeff Godard caught a pass for a two-point conversion. Hayden Hamilton led the defence with 13

tackles, including four sacks. “It was miserable weather, but both teams had the same conditions,� said Thornton. “We thought that playing at home in the same conditions we practise in would be an advantage. In the end, STM held the ball much better than we did.� With second place

and a first-round bye now out of reach, Tweedsmuir will now go to the Okanagan seeking a win that would clinch third place and home field advantage in the opening round. “Kelowna has improved over the course of the season as much or more than any team I can remember,� said Thornton. “They have some big wins including their win over Mt. Boucherie (Bears) last week. “Our kids will have to be very disciplined on defence to contain their run game and solid on the back end against the pass. Offensively, we will have to present a bit more diversity and take advantage of what they give us.� It will be the second time in three weeks the Panthers will be in Kelowna’s Apple Bowl on a Friday night. On Oct. 24, they topped the Bears 28-18.

Welcome to the driver’s seat

TestFest puts green machines and gas-guzzlers through their paces

by Bob McHugh

You gotta love a competition that pits a small, zero emissions 74-horsepower (Smart Car) electric vehicle against a 707-horsepower, tire-smoking (Dodge Challenger Hellcat) muscle car. That’s what’s in the cards if both vehicles win their categories in this edition of the Canadian Car of the Year Competition. This was the second year in a row that TestFest was held in Niagara Falls, Ontario, and

once again, the Niagara Parks Commission, at the Legends on the Niagara Golf Course, hosted it. No golfing for Automobile Journalists Association of Canada (AJAC) members, who converged on the place in droves, but lots of opportunities to fill out score cards on the fifty 2015 model year vehicle entries arranged into fifteen categories. Same-day, back-to-back vehicle category

assessments were performed, using both specially prepared evaluation courses and on public roads by the invited journalists during the six day TestFest event. So, until the official category winners are announced December 2, here are my picks in seven categories, in which I evaluated all the entries: continued on page 34

Safety Tip: Speed-related crashes increase significantly from October to December in B.C. Speed limits are set for ideal conditions only. When roads are wet, icy or snowy, leave more following distance, slow down, and give yourself more time to get where you’re going.

driveway

Cars of the year continued from page 33

City Car: Kia Soul EV & Smart ForTwo Electric Drive. Bob’s Pick: Both entries are small electric vehicles and they’re close in terms of performance, but the Kia Soul EV is my choice. It seats five (instead of two), has more cargo space and rides nicer, making it a more practical everyday car. Price (base/as tested): $34,995/$34,995 Acceleration 0 to 100 km/hour: 10.5 seconds Braking 100 to 0 Km/hour: 43.4 metres Fuel economy (city/highway): 2.0/2.6 Le/100 km Small Car - Over $21,000: Mini Cooper, Kia Forte5 & Volkswagen Golf. Bob’s Pick: The winner of this category should be a strong contender for the overall car of the year title. Lower, longer and wider, the all-new seventh-generation Volkswagen Golf is my pick. It’s an even more refined hatchback and I loved its new base turbocharged 1.8-litre engine. Price (base/as tested): $19,995/$24,295 Acceleration 0 to 100 km/hour: 8.4 seconds Braking 100 to 0 Km/hour: 41.4 metres Fuel economy (city/highway): 9.3/6.5 L/100 km

Classic style comes through in black and white The classic look of black and white will never go out of style, which is why the 107 brand new townhomes in Burquitlam are the perfect blend of location, opportunity and price. With three storeys, two colors and endless possibility, the Black+Whites on Foster are located on a quiet residential street near several parks and schools,

while remaining conveniently close to Highway 1 and Lougheed Town Centre.

The three-bedroom Black+Whites townhomes built by Intracorp, start from the low $500,000s, while the four-bedroom homes start from $590,000. Right now, they are offering a special “Neighborhood Program” that allows for early purchasing opportunities before the public launch. The Sales Centre (when open) will be located at 548 Foster Avenue in Coquitlam. To register for more information, visit www.blackandwhites.ca

With a focus on detail, Black+Whites combines an architectural design that is sophisticated, timeless, elegant and tailored. The exterior is highlighted by formal manicured hedges, rich detailed brick and hardi-board cladding combined in strong color contrasts; creating visual appeal from the very first glance. “This community is going to have a very striking streetscape impression for decades to come,” says Sprowson. Intracorp’s philosophy is to go “beyond what is ordinary,” by creating each home with special features to make life more comfortable and more beautiful without compromising lasting quality. “In every master ensuite, we include a motioncensored under-cabinet light, allowing you to comfortably use the bathroom at night without needing
