HEPNER WINS; SURREY FIRST SWEEPS COUNCIL

▶ ‘SURREY HAS SPOKEN LOUD AND CLEAR’ KEVIN DIAKIW

Linda Hepner is Surrey’s next mayor and her Surrey First team has swept Surrey council. Hepner received 50,782 votes, almost doubling those garnered by former Mayor Doug McCallum, who took 27,982 votes.

Barinder Rasode came in just behind McCallum with 21,764 people voting for her. Surrey First also had a lock on all council seats, putting a spread of more than 7,000 votes between them and their nearest competitors. “Surrey has spoken loud and clear,” Hepner told the crowd of more than 400 gathered at

the Central City Brew Pub on Saturday night after the polls closed. “They want us to go forward, not back.” Hepner told The Leader she was delighted, but not surprised. This, she said, is what the coalition’s polling had been telling them all along. continued on page 7

Surrey Mayor Elect Linda Hepner celebrates her win Saturday night as outgoing mayor Dianne Watts looks on. Hepner garnered more votes than her two main challengers – Doug McCallum and Barinder Rasode – combined and her 21,389-vote margin of victory over McCallum is the largest of any mayor in the province.

Extreme weather beds open across region ▼ FREEZING TEMPERATURES BRING MORE SHELTER SPACES

A man who calls himself ‘Small Paul’ stands near his tent in the 13500-block of 105A Avenue in Whalley. The goal of the tents, he claims, is to ‘draw attention to the fact we need houses, not shelters. We need homes.’

JEFF NAGEL

EVAN SEAL

Several Metro Vancouver cities opened up extreme weather shelters for the homeless last week in response to the arrival of freezing overnight temperatures. Rebecca Bell, coordinator of the Greater Vancouver Shelter Society, said shelters providing extra overnight spaces were opened this week in Vancouver, Richmond, Burnaby, New Westminster, Surrey, Langley and Maple Ridge. “It’s earlier than normal,” she said, but added cold weather spaces were opened in the first week of November last year. More than 600 additional spaces can be deployed across the region to meet extra demand during cold weather when local cities issue extreme weather alerts. Extreme weather sites are often set up in churches or community centres using temporary mats and provide spaces over and above those available in regular homeless shelters. As of last Wednesday night, the extra spaces being offered across the region included 110 out of a maximum Rebecca Bell 135 in Surrey, 27 out of a maximum of 57 in Burnaby, 25 out of 45 on the North Shore, and all 30 spaces available in both Langley and New Westminster, 22 in Richmond, 20 in the Tri Cities and 15 in Maple Ridge. Bell said openings change according to anticipated need and can vary across the region because of differences in local weather. “The temperature varies across the Lower Mainland quite substantially,” she said. Bell noted Port Coquitlam also has the Tri Cities Bridge Shelter, a cold wet weather shelter that’s run seasonally from October through March. A total of 9,260 stays were recorded at Metro extreme weather shelters last winter. For more information or a list of shelters across the region see http:// gvss.ca.

He has to put his cellphone on speaker while he tries to plunge the barrel of heroin into her neck. In the six-degree Celsius cold, the rest of her veins have flattened, he says, and the plump blood vessels in her neck are the best bet. But something is stuck in the needle and no matter how how hard he tries, he can’t get the drug into her system. “Did you filter it?” a man who calls himself “Small Paul” asks the 27-year-old woman. She is unsure, so he pulls out the needle and starts over. She’s a friend, he explains, and needs his help to do this. He tells her that pushing a solid clump of heroin into her bloodstream might not have a happy ending. “The heart valves are very delicate, they’re not made to pump solids,” Paul tells her, adding it could cause a stroke. This is one bit of drama playing out in the early afternoon at 105A Avenue and 135A Street on Thursday in a park now occupied with about 10 tents and the homeless who now call it home. ▶ “I’m picking Many don’t like going to the cold up needles.

Ironically, she’s using small

amounts of heroin (chipping) to get herself off methadone. She believes in about a week’s time, she and Paul can get clean and sober and get on with the lives they were supposed to have. This impromptu injection site isn’t a welcome feature for many of the businesses in the Whalley area. Pete Nichols, owner of Whalley Printers, says just prior the election, civic officials stopped trying to clear the property of the small tent city, perhaps due to the bad optics of ousting homeless people. But the impact on local businesses has been huge, he says. “I’m picking up needles,” Nichols says Thursday. “It’s a pretty tough street.” Anything left unsecured in the area is quickly stolen, Nichols adds. He says the tent city has been up for months and city hall has done nothing about it. “There was even a guy with a small mobile trailer that would pull in there and stay a week,” Nichols says. But options aren’t that great, Paul says. He was kicked out of the Front Room drop-in centre for a week after hitting another man with a laundry bag in what Paul describes as “horseplay.” Either he finds some shelter – namely his tent – or he’ll freeze. He and his girlfriend both want a permanent home, not a temporary shelter. Meanwhile, he agrees with Nichols – it’s become a pretty tough street. There’s a guy who’s been stealing drugs from the people living in the tent city, Paul says. “There’s a reward if I smash him out.” Paul is 6’2” and 230 pounds, but says the thief is big too, and well built. Paul’s girlfriend is hoping they’ll be off the streets soon. She wants her five-year-old son back and wants to get back to her job as a professional nurse. She knows that will take time. Clean time. Shortly after the conversation begins with a reporter, Paul’s phone goes dead. Attempts to call him again fail.

Voters in Delta have opted for more of the same. All five members of council have been re-elected to serve alongside Mayor Lois Jackson, as was Heather King, a former council-

Campbell of Jackson’s DIVA (Delta Independent Voters Association) team will return to council, as will Bruce McDonald and Jeannie Kanakos of the IWFY (Independents Working For You) banner. Independent Sylvia Bishop, who was first elected in 2011 with the second-highest vote total behind only Paton, was also re-elected with the highest vote total in this election. Bishop received 13,579 votes, with runner-up Kanakos collecting 12,028. Paton (11,803), McDonald (11,761) and King (11,339) were right behind, while Campbell (9,673) easily snared the final seat on council. Rod Binder (8,781) of DIVA was 892 votes shy of a place on council. (Delta council only had five councillors following the resignation of Scott Hamilton, who was elected MLA for Delta North in 2013). Voter turnout was 32.1 per cent, slightly down from 33.7 in 2011. Five of seven trustees on the Delta Board of Education were re-elected. While Simon Truelove did not seek re-election, Laura Dixon, Fabian Milat, Dale Saip, Val Windsor and Nick Kanakos were returned to the board. Dixon topped the polls as she did in 2011, with 12,362 votes, 1,041 more than runner-up Kanakos (11,321). Both ran under the Independents Working For You (IWFY) banner. Windsor (9,643), an independent, was a solid third in the polls, just ahead of Bruce Reid of Kids Matter. Reid earned his first term on the board with an impressive fourth-place finish, totalling 8,510 votes. REAL (Responsible Education and Academic Leadership) candidates Saip (8,231) and Milat (7,915) rounded out the top six. Two Kids Matter candidates battled for the final seat on the board, with Rhiannon Bennett (7,702) edging Nic Slater (7,656) by just 46 votes. The lone incumbent trustee to go down to defeat was independent Donna Burke. After grabbing the final seat

Sylvia Bishop on the Delta board in 2011 by placing seventh, she dropped to ninth this year, 397 votes shy of re-election.

Most Metro Vancouver mayors and councillors were re-elected when the ballots were counted Saturday night as voters largely opted to stick with the tried and true instead of turfing incumbents out of office. Burnaby’s Derek Corrigan, Richmond’s Malcolm Brodie, Coquitlam’s Richard Stewart and Port Coquitlam’s Greg Moore were among the Metro mayors who were returned by wide margins. Surrey Coun. Linda Hepner took the mayor’s chair in B.C.’s second-largest city, defying expectations of a tight threeway race with rivals Barinder Rasode and Doug McCallum and riding a strong endorsement from outgoing Mayor Dianne Watts, who has left civic politics to run as a federal Tory. Hepner got more votes than her two main challengers combined and her 21,389-vote margin of victory over McCallum is the largest of any mayor in the province. (The next closest was Corrigan who had 19,265 votes more than the next closest contender in Burnaby). It was a closer battle for Vancouver Mayor Gregor Robertson, who bested NPA challenger Kirk Lapointe by 10,000 votes. Green Coun. Adriane Carr this time topped the polls although no other Greens made it on Vancouver council and most incumbents were re-elected. But on the basis of percentage of the popular vote, the most impressive win belonged to Port Coquitlam Mayor Greg Moore, who won 89 per cent of the vote, compared to 68 per cent for Stewart in Coquitlam and 67.4 per cent for Brodie in Richmond. Neither Hepner, with 48.1 per

without challenge – Delta’s Lois Jackson, West Vancouver’s Michael Smith and North Vancouver District’s Richard Walton. Walton, the current chair of the TransLink mayors’ council, and Port Coquitlam’s Moore, the chair of the Metro Vancouver board, have been the key architects of the mayors’ $7.5-billion transit expansion plan and are now expected to resume work towards a 2015 referendum to approve new taxes for TransLink. Sitting mayors were toppled further east in the Fraser Valley, with Abbotsford’s Bruce Banman being replaced by Henry Braun, and Mission’s Ted Adlem falling to Randy Hawes, a former B.C. Liberal MLA.

▼ LUNCH-TIME SPORTS LEAGUES WOULD INCLUDE ALL STUDENTS A neighbour child just starting at Frank Hurt Secondary School recently told me she is desperate to play school sports. But the only ones available are after school and inaccessible to her as she cannot stay after. I was thinking how many kids would benefit from a lunch-hour league – it doesn’t seem right that all team sports are after hours. I think many kids are not allowed to stay after hours. She was so upset to be left out of floor hockey, cheerleading, soccer, etc. With today’s latchkey kids, or those busing or catching rides, it seems impossible to join high school events. So maybe a teacher can set up a lunch-hour something... and allow all kids to get exercise during school hours with others. Katheren Szabo

SkyTrain versus LRT ▼ OTHER CITIES HAVE MADE THE RIGHT CHOICE I would like to comment on the disadvantages of LRT over SkyTrain: • LRT is much slower than SkyTrain as it runs on the surface and has to stop at the traffic lights. • LRT will increase congestion. It will share roadways with other vehicles. Thus it will make rush-hour worse and will slow traffic and waste time • LRT stops won’t attract development as much as SkyTrain stations do. • LRT will have fewer riders as compared with SkyTrain. Thus the loss of revenue to TransLink would be worth billions of dollars over the next 100 years or so. • SkyTrain will make thousands of drivers get out of their cars whereas the LRT won’t be able to do that. • SkyTrain takes less travel time

SkyTrain is a much better rapid transit choice than LRT, a letter writer argues. FILE PHOTO than LRT. The value of the time savings would run into billions of dollars over its life. • Because SkyTrain will generate more ticket revenues and offer huge time savings, SkyTrain is much cheaper than LRT. All other cities in the Lower Mainland – Vancouver, Richmond,

Burnaby, New Westminster and Coquitlam – have made the smart choice by choosing SkyTrain as their cities’ rapid transit system. Even Broadway-UBC line is being planned as a SkyTrain line. Why Surrey is insisting on having LRT, I don’t understand.

▼ SUPPORT FAMILIES OF ALL SHAPES AND SIZES As some in Surrey wish the school system to return to the dark days of homophobia, bullying and repression I have to express my dismay. Having seen the crippling effects of homophobia in school systems across this country; having taught at the graduate and undergraduate level in faculties of education; and having two children who have experienced public education in two provinces, I can only say that we must support students of all sexual orientations as they begin to understand their sexual identity. The destructive force of hatred under the guise of protecting “the family” is one of which we must all be wary. Families, just as human beings, come in all sizes and shapes and need our support.

VIEWPOINT

What to do with school boards? BC VIEWS ▼ Tom Fletcher

The saddest manifestation of British Columbia’s modern democracy has produced its judgment, with the election of school trustees for the next four years. There are still independent, community-minded trustees, but mostly “boards of education” have become the neglected, exploited stepchild of B.C. politics. Teacher union locals and CUPE-dominated “labour councils” organize candidate forums and ask most of the questions, often to former teachers holding and seeking school board seats. Unions finance the campaigns of those who pledge to act as a bullhorn for constant demands for more provincial money, and instruct their members to vote for what should be called the Conflict of Interest slate. This has been going on for so long in B.C. it is seen as normal. Trustees who most loudly plump for their union masters tend to win, thanks to low turnout. The public mostly doesn’t give a damn, since school property tax authority was centralized in Victoria

many years ago, largely because of this special interest pressure. The classic case is in Coquitlam, where one could almost hear the theme from The Godfather as local CUPE boss Dave Ginter appeared before the board of education in February. He informed the elected trustees that their collective financial acumen wasn’t up to his standards and some of them would have to go this fall. “Obviously, the chore I have is to find new trustees,” Ginter clarified in an interview with the Tri-City News as the union’s candidate selection machine stirred to life. Ginter seems to have made them an offer they couldn’t refuse on Saturday, with formerly union-blessed trustees turfed out in favour of a new group. Then there’s Vancouver Island, where the 1970s survived, at least until Saturday night. Cowichan school board got itself fired by the province in 2012 for refusing to submit a balanced budget. Two of the trustees who think the job is to flout the balanced budget rule

and instead demand a “needs budget” ran again. They were joined on a slate by two others who apparently still believe the answer to every problem is to shout for “more government funding.” They didn’t get in, as voters appear to have been unimpressed by seeing their school board replaced by a provincially-appointed manager for two years. That brings up a modest proposal. How about an appointed trustee for each of the 60 school districts? School boards have lost authority over taxation, curriculum (another area of constant union social engineering pressure) and now labour relations. Do we really need them any more? After the 2013 B.C. election, the Christy Clark government wasted no time taking control of union bargaining on behalf of school districts. Trustees were pushed out of the bargaining agency, no longer trusted to represent taxpayers for that duty either. The puppet role of some school

trustees was evident in the recent teacher strike. When the province opted to pay parents for the disruption, there was a chorus of protest from those supposedly elected to represent the interests of parents and taxpayers. School tax rates are now set by cabinet order, and the B.C. Liberal government is considering a move to regulate local industrial taxes. (This would presumably be to keep union-influenced municipalities from trying to get too many golden eggs from those liquefied natural gas plants.) Would Education Minister Peter Fassbender and his team continue their remake by amalgamating or eliminating school boards? Not likely. With a rare teacher settlement in place, trustees will have less incentive to grandstand. And their meetings may become something more than union beef sessions.

▶ COUN. TOM GILL TAKES MORE VOTES THAN THE MAYOR Councillor

from page 1

McCallum said publicly he was surprised by the outcome, but added voters had chosen the Hepner plan over his, which “is the public’s right.” Rasode also said she was surprised, but said despite the loss, she will remain a very visible presence on the civic scene. She will be keeping the One Surrey team intact and said she may well be back on the ballot in 2018. “If you see my name on any ballot ever again, it will be at the municipal level,” Rasode said. For now she’ll be focusing on the issues facing the city. “I still believe very strongly that the issue of public safety has to be addressed immediately,” Rasode said. “The second issue is, when we talk about transportation, we need to make sure we get a ‘yes’ vote on the (TransLink) referendum.” Coun. Tom Gill topped the polls with 52,338 votes, not only edging out perennial poll-topper Judy Villeneuve, but garnering more votes than the mayor herself – an extremely rare occurrence. All of the Surrey First team was installed on council, including Gill, Villeneuve, Barbara Steele, Mary Martin, Bruce Hayne, as well as newly chosen councillor-elects Dave Woods, Mike Starchuk and Vera LeFranc. Safe Surrey’s Rina Gill was the closest non-elected council candidate, with just over 28,100 votes – 9,500 short of that necessary for a win. Surrey First Education (SFE) also installed all their candidates on school board. Incumbent SFE school trustees retained their seats, while incumbent independent Trustee Charlene Dobie lost her spot at the Surrey Board of Education table

Saturday night. SFE Trustees Terry Allen, Laurie Larsen and Shawn Wilson were re-elected, while their SFE running mates Bob Holmes, Gary Tymoschuk and Garry Thind also handily won a seat. Surrey voters elect six of the seven trustees. Independent Trustee Laurae McNally, who is White Rock’s representative on the board, was acclaimed. Dobie was running with an unofficial coalition of six candidates called Surrey Progressives, none of whom were successful. Dobie was elected in 2011, serving one term as trustee. Larsen was the top vote getter, followed by newcomer Holmes, who is the former co-chair of the Surrey District Parent Advisory Council. Larsen was elated with the result, saying she never, at any time, has been at the top of the polls.

While Thind has no board of education experience, Tymoschuk served on the Surrey board from 1996-1999 and was a city councillor between 1999 and 2005. Two Surrey trustee seats were vacated by longtime former trustees Pam Glass and Reni Masi, who both retired this year. There was a lot to celebrate in Surrey, as a large number of people hit the polls on Saturday, with reports of half-hour line-ups at the 52 voting stations across the city. In total, 88,897 people came out to vote, with another 11,747 casting ballots at the advanced polling stations. In all, it meant a 35-per-cent voter turnout of the 287,589 registered voters. It was expected to be a tight race between the three top polling mayoral candidates, but Hepner took an early lead and kept it.

With the departure of outgoing Mayor Dianne Watts, there were seven vying for the centre chair. The four others were independents Vikram Bajwa, John Edwards, Grand Rice and John Wolanski. Surrey had to elect a mayor, eight councillors and six school trustees. – with files from Sheila Reynolds

Predator faces new sex assault charge ▶ JEFFREY GODDARD HAS BEEN IN JAIL AT SURREY PRETRIAL SERVICES CENTRE SINCE DECEMBER SHEILA REYNOLDS

A convicted high-risk sex offender who lured children through social media is facing a new charge of sexual assault following a complaint at Surrey Pretrial Services Centre. Jeffery Goddard, 24, has been in custody since last December, when he was arrested for breaching probation conditions connected to previous sex-related charges. Goddard served a 20-month jail term after being convicted of invitation to sexual touching, communi-

cating via a computer to lure a child, impersonating a police officer and two charges of breaching his bail conditions. Most of his crimes were committed in Abbotsford. He has a history of assuming other identities – posing as a police officer, a teenage girl and a TV producer – to lure young teens, mostly boys, via the phone, Facebook and other social media. In spring 2013, he was released and living in Surrey, with B.C. Corrections issuing a warning he had offended in a predatory and opportunistic manner, and was at high-risk to

re-offend. By November 2013, Goddard was on the lam and police issued a warrant for his arrest, saying his behaviour indicated he may be back in a crime cycle. He was arrested a few weeks later in Maple Ridge for breaching his conditions and has been in custody since. Surrey RCMP say his latest sexual assault charge came after a two-week investigation. Goddard was due to make an appearance in Surrey Provincial Court today (Nov. 13). - with files from Monisha Martins and Vikki Hopes

Man arrested in stabbing at school ▶ 34-YEAR-OLD FACING NABBED IN RELATION TO DOMESTIC INCIDENT AT ROYAL HEIGHTS ELEMENTARY KEVIN DIAKIW

A Surrey school was locked down briefly last week after a woman was assaulted with a small knife. At about 8:30 a.m. Wednesday, Surrey

RCMP were called to a domestic assault at Royal Heights Elementary School, near 116 Street and 96 Avenue. Investigators were told that a man had

just stabbed a woman known to him. A man was arrested at the scene and a knife was recovered. The woman suffered minor injuries as a result of the attack. “For obvious safety reasons, the school was in lockdown for a few minutes, until we could confirm the

safety of the students and that the suspect was in custody.” said Cpl. Bert Paquet of the Surrey RCMP. “Students were never threatened or at risk during this targeted incident between two adults.” A 34-year-old Surrey man was taken into custody.

Charges have not been finalized, as officers continue to investigate. Any potential witnesses to this assault are asked to contact the Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502 or Crime Stoppers, if they wish to remain anonymous, at 1-800-222-8477 or www.solvecrime.ca.

not take the stand as accused child sex offender Ibata Hexamer attempts to withdraw his guilty pleas to offences against children in Surrey, Delta and Vancouver. Hexamer initially faced 23 charges dating back more than 15 years but in August 2012, pleaded guilty to six – three counts of sexual assault with a weapon, one of sexual assault and two of unlawful confinement. The alleged offences took place in Surrey in 2009, North Delta in 2007 and Vancouver in 1995 and involved girls between the ages of six and 14. A plea agreement called for Hexamer to

alleging his five defence lawyers handled his case incompetently. The court has been hearing that application, with Hexamer and his five lawyers all testifying. Hexamer then filed a subpoena for Crown prosecutor Elliot Poll to testify. He alleged Poll, who has had conduct of the case for its duration, “engaged in trickery and treachery” in connection with the plea agreement. In a ruling last week, Justice Jim Williams quashed the subpoena, saying Hexamer’s allegations against Poll were without merit. The judge said it appeared the crux of Hexamer’s case was that

he entered the guilty pleas on the basis that Crown would not pursue a dangerous offender designation – a status that could potentially keep Hexamer in jail indefinitely. Court documents show Hexamer fired his third defence lawyer after entering the pleas and tried to get his fourth lawyer to negotiate a shorter sentence. Justice Williams said it was obvious Hexamer was determined to get a sentence of less than 15 years, and that’s when the plea agreement went sideways. The hearing is expected to continue Wednesday (Nov. 19).

IHIT arrests five KEVIN DIAKIW

The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team’s (IHIT) cold case unit has arrested five who are believed to be responsible for two separate murders more than five years ago. The first homicide occurred on Oct. 25, 2006 when David Mitchell was fatally beaten in North Surrey. IHIT arrested four people in relation to that murder. Khalid Damien Arnaout, 35, has been charged with second-degree murder, while three others have been charged with manslaughter and accessory after the fact: Charles Vincent Chambers, 34, Michael Ludwig Yost, 32, and Kevin Alexander Pigott. IHIT has also arrested a man in relation to a Feb. 2, 2009 murder of 25-year-old James Ward Erickson in Whalley. David Clifford Sadler, 29, has been charged with first-degree murder.

Delta cop sued by daughter of man shot near New West casino SHEILA REYNOLDS

The daughter of a man shot to death during a stand-off outside a New Westminster casino two years ago is suing a Delta Police officer accused of firing the deadly shot. The lawsuit filed by Nousha Bayrami accuses Const. Jordan MacWilliams of shooting her dad, Merhdad Bayrami, “without warning or justification” at Starlight Casino in November 2012. Merhdad Bayrami was shot in the stomach after a five-hour confrontation with the regional ERT (emergency response team) Nov. 8. Police had been called to the scene at 6 a.m. that day after a report of shots being fired and arrived to find Bayrami armed and apparently distraught. He was taken to hospital after being shot and died 10 days later. His daughter alleges her dad was “walking backwards away from the peace officers with both arms by his sides” when he was shot. Her father’s death, she claims in her suit, has deprived her of love, guidance and support. The Corporation of Delta, MacWilliams’ employer, is also named as a defendant in the lawsuit. None of the accusations have been proven in court and neither of the defendants have filed a statement of defence. Last month, MacWilliams was charged with second-degree murder in connection to the shooting, following an inquiry by the province’s Independent Investigation Office. He is now on paid administrative leave from the Delta Police Department. – with files from CTV

Family a bigger threat to seniors than scammers ▶ 40 PER CENT OF THE ELDERLY IN B.C. HAVE BEEN FINANCIALLY ABUSED: REPORT JEFF NAGEL

A new study suggests more than 40 per cent of B.C. seniors have been financially abused, usually by someone they know and trust. The report by Vancity Credit Union and a companion survey of Lower Mainland and Victoria seniors by the Mustel Group indicate the problem is much more pervasive than higher-profile fraud against seniors by unknown scammers. (View the full report at http://bit.ly/1zpstj8). It cites estimates from other researchers that 55 per cent of cases of seniors fraud or financial abuse are perpetrated by family, friends, neighbours or caregivers and that total losses could run as high as $1.3 billion in B.C. “The most common are demands for money from family members,” the report says, dubbing it an “invisible crime.” Financial abuse of seniors is defined when someone uses an elderly person’s money, property or personal information for their own benefit without authorization. It’s less often outright theft or scams and more often pressure tactics that result in scenarios that benefit the abuser. The survey found 19 per cent of southwest B.C. seniors had lost money to someone who never repaid a loan, or who borrowed money without telling the senior at all. Another 18 per cent said they’d been pressured into giving money. Common scenarios include younger family

A new report shows 55 per cent of cases of seniors fraud or financial abuse are perpetrated by family, friends, neighbours or caregivers and that total losses could run as high as $1.3 billion in B.C. EVAN SEAL members campaigning for an early bequest. “A lot of older adults are being pressured by their now grown-up children to give them their inheritance early so they don’t have to wait until you die,” said Lorraine Logan, president of the Council of Senior Citizens of B.C. Sometimes the aim is to avoid loss of family wealth to capital gains tax, she said. Logan said high home prices in Metro

Vancouver are often a reason seniors are urged to contribute to a down payment so children or grandchildren can get into the real estate market. Such transfers can be completely legitimate, or highly questionable if the senior feels forced to consent or if doubts arise about their ability to legally consent. The Vancity report says other financial abuse scenarios include:

• A family member or caregiver who shops or pays bills for a senior but spends for themselves as well using the senior’s cash, debit or credit card. • Redirecting incoming benefits cheques for deposit to the abuser’s account instead of the senior’s. • Predatory marriage to a senior to gain access to their assets. Logan said seniors and legal advisers should be on high alert for trouble whenever signing legal agreements that put financial control into someone else’s hands. “I’ve heard a young person say ‘I’m going to get power of attorney for my dad and then I’m going to go out and buy him a new car so I can drive him around.’” Few seniors ever blow the whistle on family, Logan said. “It’s so sensitive,” she said. “If you’re the victim of your son and daughter (pilfering) your bank account you probably not going to want to tell anybody.” Any senior can be at risk, the Vancity report said, but many are even more vulnerable if they lack financial understanding, are isolated without a strong social circle, a newcomer to Canada facing language or cultural barriers, unsure of the value of their home or other assets, or are impaired by medication, stress or exhaustion from medical problems. The report recommends financial institutions train frontline staff to recognize seniors financial abuse and to help seniors identify abusive scenarios. Vancity is hosting free public workshops on seniors financial abuse Nov. 19 at the North Delta branch on Wednesday, Nov. 19 from 6-8 p.m. at 7211 120 St. Register in person or call 604-877-7193.

Inspired by the passion of the people that surround us, aware of our rapidly growing population, and eager to contribute to the increasing need for support, the Surrey Homelessness & Housing Society is working to make a difference. The Society raises, manages and distributes funds to support programs, projects and initiatives for people who are homeless or at-risk of homelessness in Surrey. Each year, the Society funds projects that will reduce homelessness and increase access to safe and affordable housing in Surrey. From youth to seniors and everyone in between, our funds focus on the key pillars of change — transitional and short-term supportive housing, prevention of homelessness, employment development and addiction/health services. To date, we have invested over $2.5 million dollars into Surrey. We believe ending homelessness is possible. Help us provide hope. Read more at surreyhomeless.ca

▶ MAJOR MIDGET HOCKEY TEAM TAKES A PAIR FROM VANCOUVER CHIEFS, WILL PLAY IN VICTORIA NEXT WEEKEND RICK KUPCHUK

A sweep of the Vancouver Chiefs has lifted the Valley West Hawks into fourth place in the BC Hockey Major Midget

League. After a 4-1 victory Saturday in the Langley Events Centre and a 4-3 triumph Sunday afternoon in Coquitlam, the Hawks have improved to 9-5-2 (won-lost-tied), three points back of the Okanagan Rockets. “Hard fought battles both games that were marked by good special teams play, great goaltending, and opportunistic goal scoring,” said Hawks head coach Jessie Leung. Valley West got an early start to Sat-

urday’s game. The Hawks opened the scoring 11 minutes into the game and led the rest of the way. James Malm assisted on a first-period goal from Langley’s Christian Bosa, then scored himself to make it 2-0 late in the second. Justin De Vos of Surrey found the net with one second left in the second period for a 3-0 Valley West advantage. The Chiefs got on the scoreboard five minutes into the third, then surrendered an empty net goal to Langley’s Malm with 52 seconds left to play.

Nic Tallarico of Surrey was the winning goalie, making 31 saves. Sunday in Coquitlam, the Hawks had to come from behind to earn the two points, as the Chiefs were up 2-0 12 minutes into the game. Semiahmoo’s Jeffrey Stewart got the Hawks on the scoresheet two minutes before the first intermission, but Vancouver replied a minute into the second period for a 3-1 lead. continued on page 34

And on defense, we needed to find more speed,” said Dan Nayebzadeh, head coach of the KPU women’s team. “If we make our lay ups and our free throws, we will win games.” The Eagles played well enough for a win Friday against the Falcons, rallying from a 19-8 deficit after the first quarter to trail by just one at 29-28 at the half. The

lead changed hands several times in the third quarter, and the two teams were tied 42-42 going into the fourth. But KPU was outscored 26-7 over the final 12 minutes and lost for the third consecutive time. Shilpa Khanna was the top scorer for Kwantlen with 23 points. The Surrey resident also had four assists and six rebounds. Samantha McPhail contributed with seven points, a pair of assists and 11 rebounds.

Leader

Valley West reeled off three straight goals for the lead after 40 minutes. Semiahmoo defenceman Ian Ross netted their second goal, then Trevor Ayre (Semiahmoo) tied the score midway through the game. Daniel Watson (Semiahmoo) got the winner, his first ever MML goal, with six minutes left in the period. Malm earned an assist on Watson’s goal, his third of the game. Jakob Walter made 35 saves in the Hawks nets for the win. “Walter was sensational in the second and third periods, making big saves through traffic and off breakaways,” noted Leung. “We gave up better looks than I’d like but I’m happy that our goalies came up big for us. We got key saves at key times that helped us complete the sweep.” The Hawks travel to Victoria next weekend for a pair of games with the South Island Royals. The Royals are in seventh place at 8-7-1. “We’re only up on them by three points,” said Leung. “So we need to be ready to work or we’ll quickly find ourselves back in the pack.” BLUE LINES: Matthew Monk was called up from Langley Minor Hockey’s Midget Tier 1 team, and played both games on the weekend. Trevor Ayre continues to challenge for the league’s scoring lead. He has nine goals and 18 assists for 27 points in 16 games played to rank fourth in the MML scoring race. He is seven points back of the league leader, who has played two more games. Matt Barberis of White Rock is the leading scorers among defenceman with three goals and 22 assists for 25 points.

Eagles lose two in Prince George The road was not kind to the Surrey Eagles last week, as the struggling BC Hockey League team lost all three of its game played away from South Surrey Arena, including a pair against the Prince George Spruce Kings. The three losses – which began Nov. 10 with a 6-1 loss to the Langley Rivermen – brought to 10 the Eagles’ losing streak, and sunk the Birds to the bottom of the BCHL standings with a 3-15-0-3 (won-losstie-overtime loss) record. The Eagles have now lost 120 consecutive games, and are 12 points out of a playoff position just 21 games into a 58-game regular season. On Friday at the Prince George Coliseum, Surrey lost its ninth straight – by a 6-3 score – but through 40 minutes, it looked as though

79, and five BCHL teams have more than 90. In Saturday’s game, Darius Davidson again got the Eagles’ on the board first, scoring a power-play goal 3:53 into the game. Brian Drapluk scored the Eagles’ other goal at 3:02 of the third period, but it was all the visitors could muster against Spruce Kings’ starter Jesse Janks. The Eagles play twice next weekend, on Friday at the Langley Events Centre against the 10-7-1-3 Rivermen, and Saturday night at South Surrey Arena against the 11-7-1-2 Alberni Valley Bulldogs. Face-off Saturday is at 7:11 p.m.

Surrey’s regular starter, Christian Short, is injured. Last week, Eagles’ head coach Blaine Neufeld said he expected the netminder to be sidelined for “three or four weeks.” In the meantime, the team will roll with the rookie tandem between the pipes, though both have struggled this season. Russell, in limited action, has a goalsagainst average of 6.28, and a save-percentage of .821, while Davidson’s numbers are no better – a goals-against average of 6.44 and a save-percentage of .824. The Eagles’ have given up 118 goals through 21 games – which is the worst mark in the league. Only the Coquitlam Express, who’ve given up 104 in 24 contests, have eclipsed the 100-goals-against mark at this point in the season. Surrey is also last in goals-for, with just 49. By contrast, the Spruce Kings – who sit first in the Mainland Division – have

the visitors might actually bump the slump, but a poor third period was their undoing. The two teams were tied 2-2 after two period of play – Darius Davidson, with a first-period goal, and Chase McMurphy, with a second-period power-play marker, were the Eagles’ goal scorers – but in the third, the Spruce Kings exploded for four goals in slightly more than nine minutes. Adam Clements scored first, Justin Rai scored twice in 2:20, while Jake Lebrun added an empty-netter. Cole Plotnikoff – a Surrey resident and recent addition to the Eagles’ roster – scored the Eagles’ lone goal in the third. Kurt Russell, a callup from the Junior B Richmond Sockeyes, was the goaltender of record for the Eagles, stopping 24 of 29 shots. On Saturday, 16-year-old rookie Daniel Davidson got the start, stopping 20 of 25 shots in a 5-2 loss.

ows Marauders in the Senior AA playoffs, but won the round-of-16 clash 39-28. Josh Yanciw paced the young Seahawks to the win, throwing for a pair of touchdown passes and running for four more. “It was the most complete game we have played all year,” said Seahawks head coach Jerry Mulliss. “The defense played a heck of a game against a much bigger offensive line and running backs. We gave up quite a few yards but really came up big when we had to.” Yanciw ran for touchdowns of 15, two, three and six yards. The touchdown passes were 20 yards to Sam Orlick and 50 to Masaki Kawanami. Yanciw, the Southern Conference Offensive MVP, completed seven of 10 passes for 144 yards. Kawanami ran seven times for 105 yards, with Yanciw carrying the ball 10 times for 94 yards. Leading the defensive effort was Kawanami with 10 tackles, Joe Collier-Pandya and Rob Hodgins with nine each, and Anojan Krishna and Devon Gould with five.

Gould have a pair of quarterback sacks, with Krishna and Hodgins adding one each. “A lot of guys really stepped up, in particular senior linebacker Joseph Collier-Pandya,” added Mullis. “Joe is one of those kids that gets overlooked but he is one of the most committed kids I have ever coached – he never misses a practice, never complains, works very hard and is joy to have on the team.” The Seahawks, the second-place team in the Southern Conference with a 3-1 record, will travel to Nanaimo next weekend to play the John Barsby Bulldogs. Barsby was the top team in the Western Conference at 5-1. “John Barsby is a very good team and they have only lost one game all year and we are traveling to their park for our seventh road game of the year,” said Mullis. “However, we are on a 4-game win streak and we are playing much better now that at the beginning of the year. “We love the playoffs – one and done is great, there is absolutely nothing to lose.”

REAL ESTATE UPDATE

REALTORS with VISION W

estCor Group is a name you know or have seen if you spend more than a few minutes in the Fraser Valley. The fastest growing Real Estate team is made up of Randy Mann and Rene Sandhu with a group of support staff and agents behind the scenes. These Real Estate Visionaries are Top 1% Realtors in the Fraser Valley who have consistently sold in excess of $30 Million in Real Estate each year. They have both been Rookies of the Year at Sutton West Coast Realty and there does not seem to be any stopping them anytime in the near future. We asked Randy and Rene a few questions about Real Estate in the Fraser Valley and the

vision they have for the years to come and here is what they had to say. “We saw what others typically did in the Real Estate industry in the Fraser Valley and we completely flipped it on its head. The marketing background that we have allows us to be cutting edge in our approach to marketing and successfully selling Residential Detached and Attached homes” says Randy Mann of Westcor. “We understood the needs of the industry and built a firm base on exceptional service coupled with modern technology” adds Rene Sandhu of WestCor. “We have evolved from regular Real Estate Agents to Real Estate machines. Whether it’s marketing a

home, commercial building or development land, we have changed the face of how people look at marketing Real Estate.” What’s next for WestCor Group? Randy and Rene both agree that the Fraser Valley has only touched on its potential for growth and feel that their work with the industries leaders and decision makers will see a solid growth for the long term, foreseeable future. “As long as people and companies stay attracted to the Fraser Valley and there is a consistent growth in jobs and affordable housing, the sky is the limit.” Randy exclaims. The vision is clear; WestCor Group is poised to take the Fraser Valley to another level.
