LEARNING CENTRE MOVING BACK TO NORTH SURREY?

▶ PROGRAM MAY RETURN TO LOCATION IT HAD TO VACATE IN 2008 SHEILA REYNOLDS

It appears the North Surrey Learning Centre may move back to the location it was forced to leave eight years ago.

As reported in The Leader last week, the Surrey School District has been told the program – for high school students who wish to learn outside the mainstream school system – must vacate the building near 134 Street and 77 Avenue it currently calls home.

The landlord is unwilling to extend or renew the lease and the learning centre will have to move at the end of this school year.

School district staff have considered many options and have determined Surrey Community College has space to accommodate the 240 or so students who attend.

The college, operated by the school district, is located in a building beside the District Education Centre (DEC) at 92 Avenue and 140 Street – the same locale the North Surrey Learning Centre had to vacate in 2008 while DEC was under construction.

The decision to move the learning centre is not final and staff will consult with students, staff and the public before reporting back to the school board.On Jan. 15, trustees gave the go-ahead for that consultation to begin. An update is due back to the board sometime next month.

Lew Cocker never drank alcohol before he went overseas.

(PTSD) Saturday in Cloverdale.

He had witnessed first-hand atrocities that gave him such nightmares that he couldn’t – and still can’t – get more than two or three hours of sleep each night.

The dreams are usually the same: he’s being chased in an environment of rubble.

Jolted wide awake, he rarely goes back to sleep.

More than a decade since his wife left him, Cocker, 52, who lives alone in Roberts Creek on the Sunshine Coast, said that even though he has stopped drinking, he’ll never be normal.

“Normal would be going to sleep for eight hours.”

He had contemplated suicide, too, before he got help starting in 2010.

That’s not uncommon, said Dr. Greg Passey, a psychologist who works with PTSD patients in private practice and at the BC Operational Stress Injury Clinic in Vancouver.

Speaking at the Surrey forum – hosted by the White Rock-based Equitas Society, formed in 2011 to help disabled soldiers – Passey said in his studies going back to the early 1990s, he has found that 46 per cent of those with PTSD will consider suicide, and 19 per cent will make the attempt. continued on page 5

Exempt your child from the FSA

Dear parents, We work hard to give your children the best education possible. We celebrate with them when they master a new concept and help them think creatively when tackling a tricky problem.

But standardized tests like the Foundation Skills Assessment (FSA) in Grades 4 and 7 take away from those wonderful moments of learning.

The FSAs do not count for marks, create needless stress for students, are expensive, and the muchdelayed results do not actively support your child’s progress.

The data is also misused to rank schools, which puts pressure on teachers to teach to the test, instead of to students’ interests and needs.

That’s why teachers in Surrey recommend you send a letter to your school principal requesting that your child be exempted from the FSA.

▟ GLORIA ZERBINO’S SECONDDEGREE MURDER TRIAL IN MOTHER’S DEATH BEGINS

BOAZ JOSEPH

SHEILA REYNOLDS

When the coroner arrived to remove Panagiota (“Yota�) Zerbinos’ body from the Surrey suite where she was killed in 2012, a knife was still protruding from her chest.

Gloria Zerbinos, who lived in the suite, was arrested two days later for the murder of Panagiota, her mother. Gloria’s second-degree murder trial began in B.C. Supreme Court in New Westminster on Monday.

She was 28 when she was arrested for killing her 43-year-old mom.

Crown prosecutors contend Gloria stabbed Panagiota, known as “Yota,� multiple times and intended to cause her death. The court heard that the victim’s body was discovered in a house near 88 Avenue and 148A Street, where Gloria lived.

The first witness to testify at the trial, RCMP forensic investigator Cpl. Jeffrey Jackson, said the body was on the floor of the basement suite’s living room, covered with a blanket.

There appeared to be blood stains around the body, as well as what looked like bloody shoe prints, he said.

Panagoiota Zerbino Examining 107 pho(left) and her daughter tos taken at the crime Gloria. scene, Jackson pointed to wounds on both wrists of the deceased, and what appeared to be strands of black hair near or on both hands.

The accused listened to the testimony from the Plexiglass prisoner’s box wearing a green sweat suit, her hair now dark, long and frizzy.

Crown prosecutor Craig Yamashiro said Panagiota’s husband Trevor Forsyth will testify he became worried when he hadn’t heard from his common-law partner on Nov. 8, 2012 and that evening, continued on page 4

Remembering a life ▟ VOLUNTEER DOROTHY GIBBS TO BE HONOURED AT THIS YEAR’S ALZHEIMER WALK IN SURREY BOAZ JOSEPH

It’s almost a certainty that on the morning of July 10, Dorothy Gibbs will stroll down to White Rock beach, sit on one favourite bench, and remember.

With any luck, she’ll witness a train pass by.

Dorothy, 81, has done this annual pilgrimage for the 10 years since her husband Robert (Bob) passed away.

That bench on West Beach was part of a daily ritual for the two of them.

Bob would swim at 6 a.m. at a local pool. Then eat breakfast. Then he and Dorothy would sit on the bench at the beach. They wouldn’t leave until a train had passed by.

The importance of a daily routine for someone like her husband was something Dorothy had known for some time.

She learned it at an Alzheimer’s caregiver support group she attended after her husband was first diagnosed with the disease.

Around the time of his retirement, Bob, a gregarious, humourous man, showed signs that something was wrong with his memory.

After some time, a concerned Dorothy sought advice at an Alzheimer’s Society open house in White Rock.

The greeter welcomed Dorothy with a hug and asked how

she could help. “I just collapsed in tears and left,� Dorothy now recalls with a chuckle.

She did come back, of course, learned what she could, and over time, managed to convince her husband’s health care providers he was indeed having problems and was good at hiding them behind good Scottish cheer and banter.

Avalon Tournier, the support and education coordinator for Surrey/North Delta/White Rock at The Alzheimer Society of B.C., remembers Bob as “likable and quick-witted.�

While he attended a support group for those with Alzheimer’s, Dorothy took on the challenge as a caregiver and found out what she could at her own support groups.

She learned about the importance of routine, tidiness and simple communication to help her husband cope during his slow cognitive decline.

She was taught to use distractions when her husband repeated the same sentences – it was also a way to reduce his frustration, since he knew things weren’t right.

For years, he swam every morning. “It was very good for him,â€? â–ś “Why can’t says Dorothy. you carry on He only stopped swimming about two years before his an intelligent death (from an illness not reconversation?â€? lated to Alzheimer’s disease) because of an argument in the A HARSH QUESTION FOR change room.

Deadly dog walker to be sentenced SHEILA REYNOLDS

A Ladner dog walker who left six dogs to die in the back of her truck last spring and then lied about it will be sentenced next week.

A sentencing hearing took place in Surrey Provincial Court Wednesday for Emma Paulsen, who pleaded guilty in November to one count each of animal cruelty and public mischief.

Last May, Paulsen was taking care of eight dogs, including a border

collie owned by her and her ex-husband, when she reported six of the canines were stolen from her truck, which she claimed was parked at an off-leash park in Langley.

The alleged dog theft sparked searches and rewards were offered.

Paulsen eventually confessed she had gone shopping in Richmond, returning 40 minutes later to find six dogs in the back of her truck dead.

She admitted she dumped the dead dogs in the Fraser Valley. The

bodies were later found in Abbotsford and a necropsy showed they died of heat stroke.

The Crown is seeking six to 12 months in jail (three-to-six month consecutive sentences on each of the charges), a $5,000-10,000 fine, plus a lifetime ban on caring for others’ animals and a 10-year ban on owning or living with animals.

Defence recommended a conditional sentence to be served in the community. Judge James Jardine will deliver his sentence Jan. 28.

▶ TWO-WEEK MURDER TRIAL IS SCHEDULED from page 3

got the landlord to open the door to her suite, where his wife lay dead.

Also expected to

testify are a pathologist, first-responders and neighbourhood witnesses, including one who was living in the adjacent basement suite.

Yamashiro said she’ll provide evidence saying she heard noises from Gloria’s suite on the day of the murder, including a dog barking, a baby crying and someone saying “shhhhh.”

Another witness is expected to testify he saw Gloria walking to her mom’s car parked outside the home.

When he asked if she was borrowing it, she said “Shhhh, don’t tell anyone” – an answer he thought was a joke. She was unable to drive the car, however, because it was a stick shift.

The Crown alleges Gloria killed her mom and then dropped off her young son and dog at her grandmother’s house just up the street.

The grandmother, however, passed away in December 2013, so prosecutors hope to play a recording of her previous testimony at trial.

Gloria was arrested at the No. 5 Orange strip club in Vancouver two days after her mom was killed.

The trial is being heard by Justice Frits Verhoeven. It’s scheduled for two weeks.

▼ WALK FOR MEMORIES IS IN SURREY ON JAN. 25 from page 3

Bob was stunned when an acquaintance asked him point-blank: “Why can’t you carry on an intelligent conversation?”

Bob turned around and said he had Alzheimer’s disease and never went back.

Dorothy describes another incident following his death two years later.

After her husband’s memorial service, Dorothy asked one of her two daughters about why she didn’t grieve at the event that day like the rest of the family.

The daughter replied that her grieving began the day she was told her father had Alzheimer’s disease.

After he died, Dorothy continued volunteering with the Alzheimer’s Society, organizing support groups, and she still makes calls to remind clients of upcoming meetings.

This month, she’s the honouree at the society’s annual Walk for Memories fundraiser event for the Surrey/North Delta/White Rock region.

The Investors Group Walk for Memories in support of the Alzheimer’s Society of British Columbia takes place on Jan. 25 from 1-3:30 p.m. at Eaglequest Golf at Coyote Creek, 7778 152 St. Registration begins at 11 a.m. For more details, visit www.alzheimerbc.org

70,000 reasons to walk • Alzheimer’s disease is a progressive and degenerative brain illness, which causes thinking and memory to become seriously impaired.

• Several medications are available to treat some symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease. However, they do not stop its progression.

• More than 70,000 British Columbians have Alzheimer’s disease or dementia.

• 10,000 of them are under 65.

• Women represent 72 per cent of Canadians living with Alzheimer’s disease.

• The Alzheimer’s Society works to promote brain health, support those living with the disease and their families, challenge the stigma of Alzheimer’s disease, and support research for effective treatments and a cure.

duced to $200 million.

Among those fighting for more recognition for veterans with PTSD is Aaron Bedard, who served as a combat engineer with the Canadian Forces from 2002 to 2010.

In 2006, he was wounded in Afghanistan, and suffers from PTSD, he told forum attendees.

Released from service in 2010, and after seeing the number of suicides among veterans, he became one of six plaintiffs in the Equitas case, a suit against the Canadian government before the BC Supreme Court to overturn the New Veterans Charter.

Among Bedard’s efforts in recent years was helping to “destroy (the reputation of MP Julian) Fantino” (as Minister of Veterans

Affairs), who was widely criticized by veterans for being insensitive to their needs.

On Jan. 5, Fantino was demoted to the position of Associate Defence Minister.

Assisting veterans pro bono through his law firm Miller Thompson LLP is lawyer Donald Sochoran.

Cocker, who is getting more involved in advocating for other veterans, admitted at the forum he was nervous bringing his story out into the open.

It was his first-ever speech at a microphone.

“I’m not looking for your sympathy,” he told the crowd of 45. “I’m looking for your help.”

More Canadian veterans have died from suicide than as battle casualties in Afghanistan, and possibly the Korean War, Passey said.

Passey served with the CF for 22 years and was released on medical grounds (including PTSD) in 2000.

He described himself as “a psychiatrist and a veteran – what a combination.”

PTSD, he explained, is not a visible injury, but is still a serious, sometimes fatal condition that affects about 15 per cent of those deployed on military missions (and is also linked to physical injuries, some of which take place in training.)

Passey said the 12-year Afghanistan mission produced 300-350 victims of PTSD each year.

Exposure to shocking or chronic events can trigger flashbacks or irrational fears when solders go back home.

Passey said he has encountered veterans at home in full-panic mode at the thought of something as seemingly mundane as grass, or others traumatized by certain sounds, colours, even the sight of children.

Many who witnessed events during peacekeeping missions in the former Yugoslavia or Rwanda were particularly hard-hit, as many of those events involved civilians.

There are other costs to all this, Passey said, involving broken families, depression, drug and alcohol addiction, and greatly increased utilization of health services for stress-related health issues, including doubling the rate of heart disease.

A life with PTSD can be shortened by 15 years.

Passey explained that the current view of PTSD by the Canadian Forces (CF) and Veterans

Affairs (VA) are lamentable, as veterans are treated with bias, stigma and discrimination.

“The whole system needs to change.”

Much of his anger is geared towards the 2006 New Veterans Charter.

Passey said in recent years, there has been a protracted clawback of services to veterans who suffer from PTSD. Front-line clinics and VA offices have closed, and the system has become increasingly adversarial, with reductions in long-term benefits for chronic physical and mental injuries.

Many veterans, he said, suffer the further indignity of rejection letters from the VA following claims and further appeals for aid.

A VA budget of $1.1 billion was recently re-

A man with a heart of gold Al Cleaver was named a Surrey Civic Treasure in 2010, but he was much more than that. He was one of the key builders of the city over the past 50 years.

He died in hospital last week at the age of 88.

As the city’s fire chief for many years, he and several others of his fire department management team were instrumental in turning the department into a professional and extremely wellrun organization. It continues to be one of B.C.’s best fire departments.

It has the respect of almost all Surrey citizens and a capacity to respond to almost anything. At the same time, the members of the department are heavily involved as volunteers in building the community and contributing to its success. That is a value that Cleaver greatly treasured, because it was in many ways the story of his life.

He came to Surrey in the 1930s. The Cleaver family lived on a five-acre property at 124 Street and 72 Avenue and grew as much of their food as they could.

The Surrey of that time was a community where neighbours co-operated and helped one another as much as possible. That was how the initial scattered fire departments in the city first came to be – they were made up of neighbours who often obtained used equipment and a hall to store it so they could

respond at a time of crisis. Given that most buildings were built of and heated with wood, there were no shortage of fire calls.

Cleaver was one of the first students at Queen Elizabeth High School, shortly after it opened in 1939. A fellow student was Connie Shepherd.

Her father Len was the MLA representing Surrey and other Fraser Valley communities in the provincial legislature from 1937 to 1945.

The Shepherds were all about giving back and several Shepherd brothers were involved in numerous businesses and community groups in both South and North Surrey and served on council and school board.

Al and Connie hit it off and she truly was the love of his life.

They married and settled in the South Westminster area where Connie had grown up. For many years, they lived on 99 Avenue, just off Scott Road, near where a lovely little park named after Al is located today.

He was originally part of the South Westminster fire department (later Hall 1) and was one of the first of the volunteer firefighters to be hired as a full-time professional firefighter in Surrey. He and other pioneers are being honoured today at the International Association of Firefighters local 1271 Barge Inn because their

efforts built the department.

Cleaver was a training officer and took over as fire chief, working closely with his deputy and good friend Lorne Pearson.

They built the department to serve a rapidly growing community. Volunteer fire halls were gradually converted to full-time, Hall 1 and the headquarters were built, training and equipment was continually updated and the challenges facing firefighters grew increasingly complex.

Cleaver was responsible for one of the more unique aspects of Surrey fire department’s history – painting fire trucks a fluorescent green that made them stand out. He was relentlessly kidded about that decision, but stood by it.

On retiring in 1986, he and Connie became more involved with preserving Surrey history, through the museum and archives, the firefighters’ historical association and the Surrey Historical Society. He was a founder of the Friends of Surrey Museum and Archives Society, which was instrumental in raising funds for the new Surrey Museum on Highway 10 in Cloverdale.

He was a man with a heart of gold, and a love for the community that was as big as his infectious laugh. He will be greatly missed.

Trees over transit More than cops are needed ▼ GREEN TIMBERS URBAN FOREST MUST BE SAVED WITH TRANSIT EXPANSION In response to “More transit, fewer trees?”, The Leader, Jan. 15, I feel the City of Surrey needs to revise future transit plans in the Green Timbers area and save the trees. Making Fraser Highway six-plus lanes to accommodate LRT and destroy Green Timbers Urban Forest between 140 and 148 Streets is nonsense.

Extend the SkyTrain from King George station to 176 Street or Clayton using single cement pillars down the existing median. Use B-line buses on 152 and 176 Streets to feed the new stations. Build the LRT to Guildford and Newton but please save Green Timbers Urban Forest.

Only with this plan will I support the creation of a 0.5-per-cent sales tax to fund transportation improvements.

▼ COMMUNITY COOPERATION IS REQUIRED TO COMBAT CRIME IN SURREY First of all, I’d like to agree with many fellow citizens here in Surrey that more police officers on patrol is only a part of the plan to prevent crimes.

It’s true that our city has been facing such problems for a while, but it doesn’t mean that we should throw

in the towel.

Several steps are needed for the solution: 1. Physical and mental rehabilitation for those who need it.

2. Open dialogues, assistance and counselling for low-income, dysfunctional and at-risk families, especial-

Getting their motors running ▶ GREATER VANCOUVER MOTORCYCLE CLUB ROARS INTO RIDING SEASON EVAN SEAL

Ron Benderski is the president of the Surreybased GVMC. EVAN SEAL another back to life.

“It gives me something to do in my spare time. I just wish I had spare time,” he says laughing.

He currently rides a 2007 Honda Goldwing, but it was the Honda 50cc dirt bike that he bought in 1965 that helped kickstart the obsession.

“My dad always told me that if you need to borrow money, you can’t afford it, so he’s wasn’t happy that he found out my uncle had co-signed a loan for me.”

After retiring from the banking industry himself, Benderski and his wife Lillian, who only recently bought her own bike, have been able to fully enjoy the open road.

Recently he took on the role of president of the GVMC, a club origi-

nally started in the 1920s in Vancouver by longtime Vancouver motorcycle legend

nearly $200,000 for the BC Children’s Hospital and other charities, and annually hosts five major rides that are open to the public, along with on-road and off-road events.

The Surrey club will be offering Thursday evening rides for beginners.

Members of the club will be at the annual BC Motorcycle show at the Tradex in Abbotsford this weekend, Jan 23-25.

As the days get longer, many motorcycle enthusiasts are beginning to ready their steeds for the upcoming riding season.

That’s no different for members of the Greater Vancouver Motorcycle Club (GVMC), based in Surrey’s Port Kells.

For club president Ron Benderski, tinkering with his 1200cc six-cylinder 1984 Kawasaki touring bike – one of his five bikes – is a labour of love and a way to keep busy.

Pointing to the full instrument panel that looks more like the cockpit of a small plane, Benderski’s enthusiasm for motorcycles shines through as he describes how the bike, in its day, was state-of-the-art.

“It has all the gauges, even a complete stereo with a cassette player,” he says. “It was a limited edition bike too. It had absolutely everything.”

Currently he’s using one Kawasaki as a parts bike to rebuild

and businessman Fred Deeley, who owned a motorcycle dealership in Vancouver.

Over the years, the club has participated in numerous rides around North America – all with the goal of promoting motorcycle riding while building a strong sense of community among its membership.

Currently the club has 130 members, with about 40 being actively involved, riding everything from mopeds to full-sized road bikes.

Since the early 1990s the club has raised

Government-funding cuts have put Sources Community Resource Centre’s homelessness programs in jeopardy and left the non-profit organization scrambling to make up the difference.

On Friday, Sources announced that Employment and Social Development Canada would cease funding Sources’ Newton-based homeless-prevention services, which since 2005 have helped more than 11,000 Sources clients throughout the region stay in their homes.

Registration Process for the 2015/2016 School Year Delta School District is pleased to accept applications from families and students residing within and outside of the Delta School District. We offer a wide range of learning programs for all students.

Continuing Delta Students Delta students already registered in Delta will continue for the new school year.

Delta students who wish to submit a Non-Catchment Application at a new school, must submit a new Non-Catchment Application and will receive priority in this category if their application is received starting February 2nd and before: March 6, 2015.

Current Non-District students who wish to continue at the same school for the next school year, are NOT required to submit a new Non-District Application.

Current Non-District students who wish to attend a different school in Delta for the next school year, must submit a new Non-District Application and will receive priority in this category if their application is received starting February 2nd and before: March 6, 2015.

New Applicants Kindergarten Students living in a school’s catchment area should apply at the catchment area school on the designated registration date or thereafter.

Kindergarten to Grade 12 Students living in a school’s catchment area will receive priority in this category if the application is received before: June 5, 2015.

Non-Catchment area students will receive priority in this category if the application is received before: March 6, 2015.

Non-District students will receive priority in this category if application is received before: March 6, 2015.

port, landlord mediation, loans for rent and utility payments and more.

“We don’t know what will happen now if we aren’t able to continue these services,” said Sources CEO David Young.

“We help, on average, about 1,000 people every year. Now, without our (help), will some of these people end up without a place to live? I don’t know.”

Young said the cuts have come as a result of the federal government initiating a new funding approach. Under the new system, Sources submitted a proposal for continued funding, but was rejected, he explained.

The loss of funding amounts to $200,000 per year, Young said. For the next three months, Sources will fund its homeless-prevention services out of the society’s reserve funds,

but sustainable funding – both through Sources’ fundraising efforts and, potentially, other grants – will need to be found in order for the service to operate long-term.

Without continued funding, the homeless-prevention program will lose its intake worker, client-resource support worker and manager, as those positions will no longer be fully funded.

The next fundraiser on Sources’ calendar is the Feb. 21 Coldest Night of the Year walk.

Last year’s event raised about $40,000, Young said, but this year organizers are aiming to double that amount.

As well, the organization’s annual gala – set for April – has upped its fundraising target to $100,000 from $50,000.

“We’re just going to roll up our sleeves,” Young said.

Two flights, two rollovers ▶ SEPARATE INCIDENTS INVOLVE DRIVERS FLEEING FROM POLICE SHEILA REYNOLDS

Two separate crashes in Surrey Sunday resulted in rollovers when the drivers failed to stop for police.

The first took place at about 1 a.m. Jan. 18 after a Surrey RCMP officer attempted to pull over a vehicle bearing a stolen

licence plate. The silver Kia kept going, running a red light, hitting another vehicle and losing control.

The Kia rolled over, crashing down an embankment and through a chain link fence near 104 Avenue and University Drive.

The male driver got out of the SUV and fled on foot, only to be arrested a short distance away.

A second, unrelated crash took place Sunday evening after a reported fight outside the

Wings restaurant at 72 Avenue and King George Boulevard.

When police arrived, four people who were believed to be involved in the incident got in a car and fled the area. When a traffic officer in the area attempted to pull them over, the truck sped away, hitting a curb moments later and rolling over near 68 Street and 135A Avenue.

All four occupants of the truck tried to flee on foot, but were apprehended.

“Our goal is to ensure those living along the pipeline benefit from the employment generated.”

Smoky beaters in post-AirCare era JEFF NAGEL

The death of AirCare may be breathing new life into old beaters.

Aging cars and trucks that might have struggled to pass the now-terminated emissions monitoring program are increasingly popping up in online advertisements, some with jubilant reminders that the days of mandatory tests are over.

A 1997 pick-up truck going for $2,200 in Langley is just one of the ads that boasts “no more AirCare.”

Another seller of a $999 “beater” truck with “loud and stinky” exhaust in Surrey’s Clayton area is just as blunt.

“AirCare? Who cares?

Not an issue to insure this truck,” the Craigslist ad says. “If you’re concerned about your carbon footprint, then I will have to defer you to the bicycle section.

Maybe you can install a nice basket on the handlebars to haul your stuff.”

The province pulled the plug on the AirCare program effective Dec. 31 on the basis it became obsolete as vehicle pollution controls improved.

But Metro Vancouver protested the cancellation, fearing air pollution might worsen without the required repairs and retesting for vehicles that failed AirCare.

Regional district officials say they’ve also noticed the recent ads and intend to track vehicle registrations through ICBC to see if more older models now turn up on the roads.

“We’ll see if there’s a bump in older vehicles that return to the fleet in 2015 compared to 2014,” senior engineer Derek Jennejohn said.

In previous years, he said, there’s been a consistent number of vehicles that got reinspected after failing AirCare – usually meaning they made a trip to the garage to clean up their emissions.

But Jennejohn said thousands of vehicles that would normally be expected to get a re-test never showed up in the second half of 2014.

“It’s possible those vehicles were just temporarily insured or put aside and waited until 2015 to reinsure and return to the road in their failing condition,” he said.

“That’s a concern to us. Our board has directed us to try and prevent backsliding.”

He said another

potential indicator to watch is if fewer old vehicles than usual are now retired through the Scrap-It program for rebates.

Many motorists hated AirCare, considering it an inconvenient, costly and pointless imposition if their car routinely passed.

The failure rate had fallen from 14 per cent in 2007 to less than eight per cent, but more than 34,000 vehicles still failed last year.

NEW HOME DEVELOPMENT

Delta Rise lives up to its name…

Raise your expectations: A residential experience where the sky’s the limit The Delta area is moving up and quickly being recognized as a desirable place to live – so why not do it in the sky?

Picture a curving tower that overlooks sprawling views of the Lower Mainland and you will begin to understand why buyers are excited about Delta Rise by Marshall Mountain Homes and ITC Construction Group. At 37 storeys high, it is the tallest tower in North Delta and offers class, convenience and security in an urban environment.

The large decks, expansive outdoor living spaces and oversized windows capitalize on the use of natural light and an airy, open setting. The decks are two to three times the size of a typical high rise, and although the sizes vary on each unit, the large outdoor space is big enough for homeowners to live the life they want.

While inside, the open-concept kitchens come equipped with a stainless steel appliance package and polished quartz countertops, perfect for cooking up a meal and entertaining guests.

Each floor plan is designed with every day needs in mind and come in a variety of configurations in one-, two and three-bedroom plans.

Prices start at $204,900 for the one-bedroom, $242,900 for the twobedroom and the three-bedrooms starting at $412,900 which include two parking spaces!

Beyond the feel of spacious luxury, OTEZS Project Marketing’s Bill Szeto says that Delta Rise offers “lock and go living” that allows homeowners to have a great home, plus safety and security to take vaca-

tions without worrying while they are away.

“There is also one level living, meaning ease of access, no stairs and smart, open floor plans, amazing views that are unobstructed and substantial amenities.”

Some of those on-site amenities include a fitness facility, library, and business workspace including guest wi-fi, an entertainment lounge and theatre. The building also has a rooftop courtyard with a playground, Zen garden and plenty of other green spaces.

However, when it comes to features that make these homes stand out, it’s all about the soaring exteriors.

“There are no other buildings that will have this many suites with incredible views,” says Szeto.

The surrounding neighborhood has plenty of essential services within walking distance, including grocery stores, medical buildings, the new North Delta Community Park and Rec Centre, Sungod Community Centre, restaurants and pubs, shopping centres and schools.

Immediately downstairs, there will also be a few businesses, including a coffee shop.

When you choose Delta Rise, you are choosing to live an upscale life with extra green efforts in a pedestrian-friendly community.

The full 2-bedroom show home is open Monday-Thursday from 1pm - 6pm and on weekends from 12pm - 5pm at 11906 80th Ave Visit the Delta Rise website for more information and housing details: deltarise.ca

Earning a point against Giants ▶ VICTORY ELUDES HAWKS IN TWOGAME SERIES LAST WEEKEND

minutes to go.

Valley West will play two home games in Richmond next weekend, playing twice against the first-place Cariboo Cougars (254-1).

“We are as good as any team in this league,” said Leung. “If we continue the level of play we’ve reached we give ourselves a chance to win every night.”

RICK KUPCHUK

A strong performance on the ice wasn’t enough for the Valley West Hawks to get a win out of a two-game set against one of the league’s top three teams.

The Hawks dropped a 5-2 decision to the Vancouver Giants Saturday night in Burnaby, then played to a 2-2 tie Sunday afternoon at the Langley Events Centre.

“It was evenly played with opportunities for both teams to come away victorious,” said Valley West head coach Jessie Leung. “We were only able to take one point from the weekend.”

The Hawks had a chance to overtake the Giants for third place in the 13-team BC Major Midget Hockey League, but instead fell to 14-86 (won-lost-tied) on the season. With 34 points in 28 games played, the fifth-place Hawks are three points back of the Vancouver Chiefs and four back of the Giants.

Leung had to make changes to the Valley West lineup for Saturday’s game, playing South Surrey forward Eric Bocale as a defenceman with two skaters unavailable.

“Bocale did a great job on the back end,” said Leung. “He played a simple game and made some fantastic outlet passes. Erik is one of the few forwards we could have put back there given his skating ability and vision.”

The Giants never trailed in Saturday’s game, opening the scoring after just 84 seconds of play. Surrey Minor Hockey product Justin De Vos tied the game midway through the first period, but the Giants regained the lead before the first intermission and led 3-1 going into the third period.

It was 4-1 before Ben Evanish of White Rock netted the second Hawks goal, then Shakeel Ebrahim pulled the visitors to within one with two minutes remaining and the Hawks playing with six skaters.

Vancouver closed out the scoring with an empty net goal in the final minute of play.

“We couldn’t penetrate the wall of bodies in front of the net to generate grade-A scoring opportunities,” said

Leung. “And the Giants were able to convert the few mistakes we made into goals.”

Valley West welcomed back Spencer Berry top the lineup Sunday. The White Rock defenceman was injured in the second game of the season,

and missed the next 25.

“I thought Berry had a great game,” said Leung.

“I think he’s added some stability to our back end which will help us down the stretch.”

The Hawks were able to get a tie when James Malm of Langley scored

with 4:12 to play. Valley West got the game’s first goal when Surrey’s Jeffrey Stewart after 11 minutes of play.

The Giants tied the game in the last minute of the opening period, and took their only lead of the game with nine

The Upcoming Gasoline Tax Referendum

THE ROAD RULES www.roadrules.ca

Cedric Hughes

M

Barrister & Solicitor

odern technology has given us buttons, levers, knobs, and keys for performing most essential activities. While gassing up has never been less physically demanding, if you are the least bit inclined towards reflection on the impact of buying gasoline…things get very complicated at the gas pump very quickly.

Gassing up in Metro Vancouver, British Columbia now may tend to focus us on political and philosophical issues related to taxation.

The grade of gas your vehicle requires for optimal performance, its base price, the transit levy, the carbon tax and then the sales tax—every component of your bill has been and remains the subject of environmental, biological, sociological, economic, and political debate. No matter how persuasive what you read or hear one day, the next brings rebuttal and discredit. Nothing is settled.

At this moment two questions in particular are calling for attention. The first concerns the upcoming referendum on the question of increased funding for Translink, the corporation responsible for the regional transportation network in Metro Vancouver including public transport and the major roads and bridges.

Currently Translink is funded one-third from property taxes, one third from other nongovernment sources such as transit fares, advertising, and property development, and

one-third from fuel taxes.

As of 2012 the fuel tax is 17 cents per litre.

Vancouverites must answer ‘Yes’ or ‘No’ to whether or not they “support a new 0.5% Metro Vancouver Congestion Improvement Tax, to be dedicated to the Mayors’ Transportation and Transit Plan?” Elections B.C. is planning to conduct the provincially funded referendum by mail-in ballots, which will be sent out March 16 for return by May 29, 2015.

A simple majority of 50 per cent plus one will be a win in the tax debate. If the ‘Yes’ vote prevails, the new ‘sales’ tax—however it is labeled — will apply to the majority of goods and services sold or delivered in the Metro Vancouver region. The debate is ongoing. Every time you gas up presents the opportunity to reflect on what you are hearing and what your answer will be.

The second question is the efficacy of BC’s 7 cents a litre carbon tax, first adopted in 2008. To date the only jurisdiction in North America to have enacted such a tax, BC is under widespread observation in this regard as falling gas prices spur North America wide calls for the same. Local cheerleaders claim that fuel consumption in BC declined up to 2012 while economic growth “bettered the Canada average.”

But the 6% increase in gas consumption since 2012 has overwhelmed the 4.8% drop between 2008 and 2012 and critics are massing the details that, taken together, debunk “the…appeal that [carbon taxes] can improve the environment while encouraging economic growth.” BC sold the carbon tax on the basis of revenue neutrality. Whether or not a precipitously sharp decline in gasoline prices such as we have now was properly accounted for in this regard remains to be seen. …by Cedric Hughes, Barrister & Solicitor with regular weekly contributions from Leslie McGuffin, LL.B.

Eagles must fight through losing streak: coach ▶ JUNIOR A HOCKEY TEAM STILL SEARCHING FOR FIRST WIN OF 2015 NICK GREENIZAN

The Surrey Eagles are still searching for their first win of 2015, after dropping two games last weekend.

On Friday at South Surrey Arena, Surrey fell to the Langley Rivermen 4-1, and a day later, were bounced 4-2 at Chilliwack’s Prospera Centre by the division-leading Chiefs.

With wins over the Eagles, both the Chiefs and Rivermen clinched playoff berths in the BC Hockey League’s Mainland Division, while the Eagles dropped to 7-33-3 (win-loss-overtime loss); their 17 points is 20 back of the fourth-place Coquitlam Express.

“They were tough losses, but both really good games,” said Eagles head coach Blaine Neufeld.

“Against Langley, it felt like a playoff game. It was back-and-forth, and we really traded chances with them.”

Despite the three-goal deficit, Neufeld said the game was closer than the final score made it look.

Darius Davidson – who leads the Eagles in both goals and points – was the team’s lone goal scorer, potting his 20th of the season late in the first period, which made it 2-1 for Langley after 20 minutes.

Neither team scored in the middle bracket, and Langley extended it’s lead in the third on goals from Matthew Graham and Hunter Anderson.

Defenceman Matt Barberis – who was a late cut of the Surrey Eagles in training camp and is playing Major Midget with the Valley West Hawks – earned his first career BCHL point when he assisted on the Rivermen’s third goal.

The 17-year-old Surrey native was playing in his first game with the Rivermen, as an affiliate player.

Rookie goaltender Daniel Davidson stopped 25 shots in Friday’s loss – including a penalty shot – and Neufeld said he “played tremendous.”

On Saturday, Christian Short got the start between the pipes, stopping 29 shots.

In that game, Surrey and Chilliwack were tied 2-2 after 40 minutes – Cole Plotnikoff and Jordan Wiest tallied for the Eagles – but the Chiefs scored a power-play goal early in the third, then tacked on another goal late to escape with the win.

“It wasn’t a (typical) 4-1 game (Friday). We were only down one until late, and then they capitalized on a couple bounces, and we fell behind,” Neufeld said.

“Saturday was the same thing. We’re in these games, and we’re just a bounce or two away from getting things to go our way.”

Talk of bounces aside, Neufeld admitted he doesn’t necessarily believe in teams just getting lucky breaks, and instead subscribes to the theory “that you make your own luck.”

In that regard, he said he hopes his team will be able to grab a couple victories as the season winds down, if for no other reason than it will help with his young team’s mental outlook.

“We’ve been through so much this season, and it gets to the point sometimes where if you get a bad break, you start to just expect that you’re going to lose. We have to fight our way out of that,” the firstyear coach said.

On the bright side, Neufeld was pleased with the performance of his team’s two newest members, forwards Jordan Funk and Tyler Harkins.

Harkins has two assists in four games since being acquired from the Minnesota Junior Hockey League, while Funk joined the team full-time

after the Jan. 10 trade deadline that saw Surrey lose young sniper John Wesley to the Western Hockey League.

Funk – who was leading the Junior B Aldergrove Kodiaks in scoring prior to joining the Eagles – had played a handful of games with Surrey as an affiliate player this year, but was afforded permanent status when Wesley’s departure opened up a spot.

The Eagles have a busy weekend ahead of them. Today (Thursday), they’re in Prince George to take on the Spruce Kings, and the two teams will play a rematch Friday night, also in Prince George.

Surrey then returns home for a Sunday afternoon game against the West Kelowna Warriors. Puck drop is set for 4 p.m.

Chevrolet expands its electrifying portfolio with the Bolt EV Concept. With a range of more than 300 kilometres, this all-electric stylish crossover is aimed for the masses, not just the select few.

“While it’s still a concept, pricing for this type of vehicle will be in the $30,000 range. Not cheap, but certainly attainable. It even allows you to use a smartphone to perform as the key fob.”

Acura is showing off the return of its simply beautiful NSX sports car to the market. The Porsche-loving Jerry Seinfeld was flown in to add some celebrity power but there was no — because this $150,000-plus super car speaks loudly for itself.

It will be powered by a new Honda V6 mated to a ninespeed dual clutch transmission, assisted greatly by three electric motors — one for each of the front wheels and another to add torque while the turbos get up to speed.

Interesting that Honda should be getting back into F1 racing; now it features hybrid power plants!

Ford is teasing showgoers with a stunning new 600-horsepower Ford GT, which will more than likely have a price sticker similar to that of the NSX. The Infiniti Q60 concept’s premiere appearance was somewhat overshadowed by the aforementioned machines in the media here. However, Alfonso Albaisa, the Infiniti executive director of design, delivered a passionate description of the high-performance sports coupe that will come to market within the next year, with a price tag somewhat lower than the Ford and Acura products.

It would only make sense to start with Cadillac’s latest offering when it comes to their “V” series cars.

Detroit, MI – Within moments of pulling out of a parking lot in the 2015 Cadillac CTS 3.6L AWD, its pristine crimson coat was soiled by the elements. And of course, salt, dirt, grime and all that isn’t amazing about winter in Toronto.

Nevertheless, its smooth and comfortable ride didn’t disappoint along the arduous and incredibly four-plus-hour drive to Detroit, Michigan for the 2015 North American International Auto Show (NAIAS.)

cities/countries without sacrificing an enjoyable ride. Road or track, I’ll take this one for a spin any day.

Acura NSX Perhaps one of the most anticipated reveals of the last few years from the Japanese automaker, Acura, comes in the form of the NSX. The acronym, which stands for New Sports eXperience, rolled out onto the stage to a frenzy of flashes from the crowd.

While pricing hasn’t been released yet, it’ll likely be north of $150K. But, for that price, you get a vehicle that not only delivers gargantuan power, but one that is hybridized thanks to an all-new power unit. That unit is a twin-turbocharged, 75-degree DOHC V6 engine with a 9-speed dual clutch transmission (DCT) and three-electric motor Sport Hybrid system. Not to mention Acura’s Super-Handling All-Wheel Drive (SH-AWD).

Chevrolet Volt Speaking of electric motors, Chevrolet gave us a preview of the 2016 Volt. With a longer EV range and a lighter body, not to mention a new design, this plug-in hybrid is sure to win even more hearts over. Highlights include an EV range of up to 80 km, a new two-motor drive unit, which is now up to 12 percent more efficient and 45 kg (100 lb) lighter than the first-generation drive unit, and a new 1.5L range extender, designed to use regular unleaded fuel, offering a GM-estimated combined fuel consumption rating of 5.7L/100km.

Lexus NXB Concept Bike Completely changing gears, was a concept bike that caught my eye. Not only because it was totally out of place at an auto show, but also because it looks so cool.

NXB stands for Neo Xtreme Bike and comes with a Lexus original carbon frame, carbon wheels and a KYB inverted suspension up front. Even if it never is ridden, I still like the idea of a zero-emissions commute on something as interesting as this concept.

Chevrolet Bolt EV Concept For a zero emissions commute that doesn’t require muscles but rather a motor, the Chevrolet Bolt EV Concept is another step in the brand’s commitment to the electrification of automobiles.

It’s still a concept, but it embodies the philosophy of giving drivers over 300 kilometres of range out of one charge, without charging a premium for it.

The concept’s technological prowess can be linked with an App in which you can control various vehicular functions like starting the car from your smartphone. Additionally, it even incorporates the concept of automatic park-and-retrieval technology, which enables the driver to exit the vehicle and tell the Bolt EV concept to park itself – and when errands are completed, the Bolt EV concept can be summoned to return to the owner’s location.

Sounds ideal to me! alexandra.straub @drivewaybc.ca
