Transit-tax campaign won’t be easy, mayor says

Surrey earmarks up to $300,000 for ‘yes’ Kevin Diakiw Black Press

Surrey is spending between $200,000 and $300,000 on its ‘yes’ campaign for a proposed new transit tax this spring. The ‘yes’ campaign launched at Surrey City Hall last week, with the mayor expressing the need for a 0.5-per-cent increase in the seven-per-cent provincial sales tax to pay for improved transit and transportation infrastructure throughout the region. Some of the work planned for Surrey

includes a light rail system, more buses and a new Pattullo Bridge. Metro Vancouver mayors are leading the charge on the ‘yes’ side, with newly elected Surrey Mayor Linda Hepner calling securing a ‘yes’ vote her first order of business. Hepner said Thursday the city is earmarking between $200,000 and $300,000 for expenses for its ‘yes’ campaign. Hepner believes costs will be closer to $200,000. That’s equivalent to the annual property taxes on 115 homes worth $650,000 in Surrey.

Regionally, Hepner said, the Mayors’ Council will spend “a few million” dollars on the ‘yes’ campaign. In Surrey, the city will be using its own staff and printing department, and will be making heavy use of social media to keep costs low, she said. Surrey will also be paying for consultants and some advertising. Hepner acknowledges the ‘yes’ campaign has some challenging work ahead. “We certainly do, it’s not going to be an easy ‘yes,’” Hepner said.

She noted the challenge will be keeping people focused on the transit plan, rather than the inner workings of TransLink. “It’s not unlike a political campaign, except it’s more important to the region,” Hepner told Black Press. Ballots will start going out by mail to Metro Vancouver homes on March 16. Voters have until May 29 to mail back their response. To participate, residents must be registered to vote in B.C.

Homeless support

Steps in the right direction Nick Greenizan & Evan Seal Staff Reporters

A few hours in the rain can go an awfully long way. That is the message that will be sent this Saturday, when teams of walkers will gather in cities across Canada – 82 in all, including White Rock, Surrey and Cloverdale – for the Coldest Night of the Year walk, which raises money to combat homelessness. White Rock’s event, hosted by Sources Community Services, has always been one of the organization’s most important fundraisers. And this year, the event holds even more significance, since Sources’ Newton-based homelessness-prevention services lost about $200,000 in annual government funding last month. Now, the community organization is aiming to cover the lost funds itself, through fundraisers and pledge drives like Coldest Night. This weekend, participants will walk a two-, five- or 10-km route, with teams raising money through pledges. Since 2011, the Coldest Night of the Year has raised $4.9 million across Canada. i see page 2

Walk ‘a realistic experience’ i from page 1 For proof of Coldest Night’s effectiveness closer to home, one needn’t look further than one of Sources’ own employees, Naomi Glenvad, and her son, Sean Neil. Glenvad, a program manager at a Sourcesrun group home for autistic adults in Ladner, took part in last year’s White Rock walk, and she also brought along Neil, 17, and the family’s homestay student, Linc, from Shanghai. “The event came up, and they weren’t really doing anything, and the walk seemed like such a good idea, so I said, ‘OK, you’re coming with me. So they were kind of ‘volun-told’ last year,” Glenvad laughed. The walk – in rainy, cold weather – had an effect on both teens, she said, because it forced them to think about the issue at hand. “It did get me thinking about my future a little bit, and about how unpredictable things are,” said Neil. “We were walking in a constant mist, and it was so cold. When it really sunk in for me, when I really realized what it was all about, was when my feet went numb. I remember trying to wiggle my toe, but it was too cold and I couldn’t feel it. “We were only outside a couple hours – but it felt like longer. I guess nature just decided to give us a more realistic experience.” Though his mom pushed him to attend last year’s event, Neil looks forward to this year. “I’m happy to be a part of it. It makes you think… It’s cold and wet, but that’s just one night. What happens the rest of the time?” Last year, the Coldest Night walk raised $45,000 in White Rock, and this year, organizers are aiming for $80,000. Teams have been collecting money for weeks, and one Peninsula woman is even using her birthday as a reason to raise money. Patti Parkinson – whose team, “54 and Holding,” had raised $685 by press deadline Monday afternoon – has been canvassing friends and family to donate, in lieu of birthday gifts, and she’s inviting the community to do the same in advance of the walk.

Naomi Glenvad and her son, Sean Neil. Surrey’s other walks will take place in Whalley, hosted by the Surrey Urban Mission, and in Cloverdale, with funds raised also going to help those who are homeless and living below the poverty line. “Often organizations struggle with their fundraising and this is a fun, family way to draw people in the community to just walk and raise funds for various organizations,” said Jim Heuving, executive pastor at Pacific Community Church, the host group in Cloverdale. “Last year, we had the walk and our goal was to raise $30,000 and we raised $64,000. It was a really huge boost.” The church, located at 5337 180 St., began serving community meals in 2013. Organizers hope to use money raised from Coldest Night to not only feed those in need, but to increase use of the kitchen for skills training and catering opportunities. The community kitchen sees a cross-section of clients, Heuving says, from the homeless, to the mentally ill, to the working poor, and recently, more seniors who are finding it hard to get by have been showing up. “That’s why we call it a community kitchen. It’s a place where people can gather,” he said. “Food is only the front door to connect people with community resources. We have to care for our own.” Anyone interested in participating in any of Saturday’s events can get more information at www.coldestnightoftheyear.org

Chaotic classroom left kids in tears

Surrey elementary teacher disciplined Sheila Reynolds Black Press

A substitute teacher in Surrey whose “chaotic” classrooms had children crying on more than one occasion and who once left kindergarten kids outside at the end of the day, has been disciplined by the B.C. Commissioner for Teacher Regulation (BCCTR). David Lee Burns worked as an on-call teacher in the Surrey School District, filling in at several elementary schools from 2009 to 2014. According to a consent-resolution agreement made public by the BCCTR, the inci-

dents in question related to times he worked at Panorama Park, Bear Creek and Don Christian elementary schools. In November 2013 at Panorama, he didn’t follow the lesson plan left by the kindergarten teacher and let things get so chaotic in the classroom that more than one student was in tears. At the end of the day, he took the class of five-year-olds outside and didn’t return them to the classroom for proper dismissal, leaving the children on the playground during a busy time when the rest of the school was being dismissed.

In January 2014, covering a Grade 6/7 class at Bear Creek, he again didn’t follow the teacher’s plan, despite leaving a note saying he had done so. He also provided “minimal instruction” and much of the day was “free time,” according to the BCCTR agreement, leaving the kids confused about what they were supposed to do. The class was so chaotic – children were coming and going freely, throwing paper airplanes, talking loudly and running around – that a frustrated child was found in the hallway crying.

During two days the next month at Don Christian, the teacher’s lesson plan again was again not followed. The school district had reprimanded Burns five years earlier, after an investigation revealed he had not properly evacuated students in his care during a fire drill, hadn’t dismissed them properly and failed to read the on-call teacher file as required. A second discipline letter was issued by the district after the 2013 and 2014 incidents. In November last year, the teacher-regulation branch investigated and Burns admitted to professional misconduct.

Murder charge

Consuls attend celebration

Caillé out on bail

The man accused of murdering White Rock resident Bruce Ridout has been released from custody while he awaits the start of his trial. Jeffrey Caillé, who was 22 at the time of his arrest last summer, was released on $100,000 bail recognizance, with surety, but without deposit, on Feb. 6. Among conditions, the bail order dictates he is to be released in the company of his father or mother, and is to reside with one or the other in Quebec. He is also not to be outside the home, except in the company of specified individuals. Caillé is charged with second-degree murder, one count of assault causing bodily harm and two counts of assault Jeffrey Caillé in connection accused with the Aug. 10 death of the longtime Peninsula resident, at his home in the 900-block of Ash Street. Prior to his release, Caillé was being held at Port Coquitlam’s Colony Farms. On Caillé’s Facebook page, the accused changed his profile photo a day after his release to one of himself snowboarding with a woman. Underneath the Feb. 7 photo, Caillé had commented “perfect day!” When asked by an acquaintance if he was “fine now,” Caillé responded “yep!” Friends and family of Ridout, 64, have eagerly awaited information about the trial, with some attending Caillé’s brief appearances in court. Ridout was discovered in his home following numerous 911 calls from neighbours. Witnesses reported seeing a man attacking a woman on the street outside the residence and, later, knives and other objects being thrown off the balcony. Caillé is schedule to appear in Surrey Provincial Court May 19 to begin his preliminary hearing.

Members of the 10th White Rock Scouts provide the honour guard Friday at Peace Arch Park.

The treaty was, literally, in the mail. That was the reason U.S. and British forces (including Canadian-based troops) were still fighting – including the fabled Battle of New Orleans of story and song – at the beginning of 1815. It was a fact commented on at a small celebration at the Peace Arch Friday that marked the 200th anniversary of the actual end of hostilities in the War of 1812. Some 50 spectators heard that as soon as the Treaty of Ghent reached the U.S. by ship, it was ratified by Congress and signed by President James Madison on Feb. 17, 1815. Organized by Christina Alexander and the United States Canada Peace Anniversary Association, the event drew U.S. Consul General Lynne Platt, Canadian Consul General James Hill, British Consul Robin Twyman and Ronald Masnik, honorary consul general of Belgium – where the Treaty of Ghent was negotiated and signed. Also on hand for the celebration were the 10th White Rock Scouts colour guard, and representatives of the Washingtonbased Society of 1812 and the Daughters of 1812, while Alexander sang the Peace Arch Anthem, Children of a Common Mother. In describing the war as a “conflict that was an unfortunate outgrowth of the Napoleonic wars,” Platt noted the late end of the hostilities. “In the days before Instagram, news didn’t get around so fast,” she said. She also noted the U.S. had over-confidently underestimated Canada in the conflict, a fact that was brought home with clarity when Canadian-based soldiers marched on Washington and burned down the White House. Platt recalled heroic figures that emerged on both sides, including Isaac Brock and Laura Secord for Canada, and Andrew Jackson and Tecumseh for the U.S. And she quoted Canadian historian Pierre Berton’s comment that as soon as hostilities ceased, “it was as if no war had been fought, or, if it was, it had been fought for no reason.” Hill said that “since the dust-up 200 years ago, things have gone remarkably well… (we’re) the strongest of commercial trading partners, with co-operation of all kinds, and in the military sphere as well.” Following Friday’s event, Alexander said she was pleased with the co-operation she had received from all the consulates. While the turnout was relatively small, she had been pleasantly surprised by the hundreds who attended a Christmas Eve celebration to mark the actual date of the treaty.

Mother, stepfather say child accidentally fell

Toddler death ‘suspicious’ (IHIT) took the lead in the case. The girl’s mother, Jennifer Johanson, and stepfather, Cody Graham, told CTV News the death of Charlee was “100 per cent accidental.” Graham said Charlee was too small to reach the bathroom sink, so she stood on a small plastic bin. She jumped down, slipped and smacked her head. She seemed fine that day, but had a “horrible seizure” the next day. The full interview can be found here: http://bc.ctvnews.ca/ video?clipId=552158

Homicide teams are investigating the death of a three-year-old Cloverdale girl last week. It’s a fatality the parents are calling a complete accident. On Wednesday, Feb. 11, Surrey RCMP was called to a home in the 5800-block of 182 Street and rushed the girl to hospital with undisclosed injuries. It was there she succumbed to her injuries. The death was classified as suspicious and the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team

Fonyo stabbed at home Kevin DIakiw Black Press

Steve Fonyo was stabbed and taken to hospital after a home invasion last week. On Friday, Feb. 13 at 5 a.m., three people wearing dark clothing broke down the door of Fonyo’s home in the 11000-block of 136 Street. Fonyo, 49, suffered a stab wound to the back and was taken to Royal Columbian Hospital in critical but stable condition. He remains in hospital. Surrey RCMP said the stabbing was a targeted incident and they are currently looking for the three individuals believed to be involved in the attack. Fonyo, a cancer survivor who lost his leg to the disease when he was 12, was 19 when he completed a 14-month run across Canada – finishing the one-legged run of fellow amputee, Terry Fox, who had been forced to abandon the Marathon of Hope four years earlier. During his run, Fonyo raised $16 million for cancer research. Fonyo was named an Officer of the Order of Canada in 1985. Two decades later, he was stripped of the honour after he amassed several criminal convictions, including assault, forgery and drunk driving. He has also struggled with an addiction to cocaine.

Attack ‘targeted’

Sgt. Stephanie Ashton, mediarelations officer for IHIT, said “any time we investigate a suspicious death we treat it very seriously. We ask that the public keep in mind a child has died and her family is now dealing with that death.” Anyone who may have information is asked to call the IHIT tipline at 1-877-551-4448 or email at ihittipline@rcmp-grc.gc.ca If you wish to remain anonymous, provide your information on the web to Crime Stoppers at solvecrime.ca or by phone at 1-800-222-8477.

Unconvincing arguments

ordan Bateman is leading the “no” side in the referendum proposing adding 0.5 per cent to the provincial sales tax to pay for new transit projects in Metro Vancouver. He has insisted all along that the referendum is really a prime opportunity to send a message to TransLink. That message is, in his view, that it needs to deal with issues more transparently, pro- actively and cost-efficiently before it is entitled to one more cent of taxpayers’ money. His opponents, the Better Transit and Transportation Coalition, and the Mayors’ Council (except for three mayors who oppose the sales tax idea), state that the referendum has nothing to do with TransLink. They say it is about securing a source of funding to build new projects which, they admit, will be managed and operated by TransLink. Bateman’s message is clearly resonating. TransLink’s secretive board has voted to remove Ian Jarvis from the CEO position, although he will continue to collect his $468,000 annual salary until his contract expires in 2016 and will continue to advise TransLink. Jarvis is being replaced temporarily by Doug Allen, who earlier worked in reorganizing BC Ferries. He will be paid $35,000 per month. Allen had been running InTransit BC, the private company that operates the Canada Line. Even before the mayors decided on the sales tax increase as the best way to boost transit funding, it was obvious that TransLink’s record would be a big issue with voters. Bateman, who in his capacity as B.C. director of the Canadian Taxpayers’ Federation has revealed many of its blunders, had a nice, easy target. It’s high time the BC Liberals admitted that giving a number of secretive, private boards authority over how to spend and raise tax dollars at TransLink and its various subsidiaries isn’t working. When the first act of the private TransLink board was to give directors handsome retainers, it was obvious that serving the public was low on the list of priorities. Transit is an essential component of large urban areas. Much of what TransLink does works quite well. But mismanagement of SkyTrain breakdowns, the delayed release of Compass cards, transit police overtime costs and generous executive compensation have turned off a great number of hard-working taxpayers. Sorry, TransLink, but your bumbling attempt to throw Jarvis under the bus (albeit with a wallet full of cash) isn’t going to bring them back on side.

failure to keep its 2010 promise to find everyone in B.C. a family doctor. Lake allowed they’re still working on that, and then plugged the latest Conference Board of Canada study showing B.C. ranks third in the world in health care outcomes, second only to Switzerland and Sweden. Darcy, a former president of the Hospital Employees’ Union, was quick to respond: “This is surely a first in question period, the Minister of Health going back to the record of the NDP government in the 1990s, because we’ve had the best health outcomes in Canada since 1993. The fact is that we exercise more, we smoke less and we drink less, and that’s to the credit of British Columbians.” We also have more elderly people, as Premier Christy Clark argued in 2011 when the federal government changed its financing formula. After years of increasing transfers by six per cent per year, the late federal finance minister Jim Flaherty announced that starting in 2014, increases would be tied to economic growth, but wouldn’t fall below three per cent. This of course was treated as a cut, rather than continued increases above inflation. But there it is, and all provinces have to deal with it. Darcy is quite right that personal responsibility is the key, something to remember as the usual squabbling of special interests continues.

Clearing the air appreciated Editor: Re: Can’t stop global warming, Feb. 10 column. Dr. Roy Strang’s article is an excellent and concise statement of why the highly politicized activism around CAGW (Catastrophic Anthropogenic Global Warming) should not be confused with science. We have land-based temperature records going back 150 years, but changes in the number of sites, individual siting, measurement methodology, time-of-day observation and many other variables make that data subject to great uncertainties. Much more reliable satellite-temperature measurements only go back to 1979. Sea temperatures have only been consistently measured since 2005, with the deployment of hundreds of Argo floats that periodically measure temperatures at depths up to 2,000 feet. Prior to that, it was buckets of water pulled up from passing ships, which was both inaccurate and measuring only surface temperatures. Of course, we have no temperature records from the medieval and Roman warm periods, but there are peer-reviewed studies that prove those times were warmer than today. A calculation of the dates that cherry trees bloomed, taken from diaries of members of the Japanese Imperial Court, shows that the 12th century was about 0.5 degrees Celsius warmer than today. One should also remember that your average temperature variation during the course of a single day is several times larger than the predicated variation from global warming over the next 50 years. Ed Beauregard, Surrey Q Bravo, Dr. Strang, and thank you for your very reasoned, thoughtful and sensible comments about global warming. Your final paragraph sums it up neatly. Elaine Godwin, Surrey Q Dr. Roy Strang, in his alwayseffective manner, has put paid to the foolishness of today’s globalwarming alarmists. I’ve never understood how

normally intelligent people become unhinged over an essential gas like CO2, which amounts to only .04 per cent of the atmosphere by volume. Common sense tells us that this trace gas will not cause enormous man-made climate damage. Dr. Strang has done his history and reviewed his science – warm periods, cold periods, solar activity, orbital changes, earth-axis tilting and precession – demonstrating the complex influences on our climate. Single-dimensional belief in CO2 as the driver of climate change rivals flat-earth beliefs. Man-made global warming/climate change/carbon footprint/carbon pollution – whatever the flavour of the day – was a strictly political construct from the get-go. Recent debate over export-oil pipelines

reveals the goal of authoritarian leftists – the bulk of our climate alarmists – to be the shutdown of Alberta’s Oil Sands Industry. This has always been the goal – destruction of industrial capitalism that has provided us with the highest standard of living in history. True pollution is, and has been, addressed by technology developed by industrial capitalism. CO2 is not a pollutant. Francis Patrick Jordan, White Rock Q Dr. Roy Strang’s column deserves a cacophony of cheers for disclosing (!) that the Earth’s climate has been changing for thousands of years and has embraced both extended warm and cool periods. This contradicts the current belief of so many, that climate change is

a recent phenomenon. Consider my own professional affiliation: the Association of Professional Engineers and Geoscientists of BC (APEGBC). Last year, APEGBC put out no less than a position paper stating that “the association recognizes that the climate is changing”; clearly as insightful an observation as recognizing that night follows day. Actually, climate change is recent just by its recent conspiratorial use as preferred terminology. “Conspiratorial”? Yep! Study the Climategate emails and note the discussion and mutual exhortation to use the term instead of ‘global warming’ because ‘climate change’ is much more versatile as to what events can be blamed on it. David Poole, Surrey

White Rock’s water – from both its seaside and aquifer – could be a source of revenue, suggests a letter writer.

editorial@ peacearchnews.com

White Rock’s glass is half-full Editor: This letter is to inspire all those who love to live in this quaint little city of ours by the sea. Over the past few years, it has dawned on me that the world’s lack of pride and creativity is starting to catch up with us, and White Rock is no exception. As money is worth less than ever these days, our city always appears to be cash-strapped and looking for ways to generate income (parking tickets and cottages just aren’t cutting it anymore), so we are building upwards to increase density for a larger tax base. Another thing the City of White Rock may consider, is going into business for itself to help fund projects:

email:

1) White Rock Salt Factory – salt water borders 25 per cent of our city, and residents and tourists alike would love to buy salt made by the city; and/or 2) White Rock Water Co. – if our aquifer’s recharge rate allows for it, bottle it and sell it. The final idea is for White Rock to have a small technical school/university to offer specialized training that would be sought out by students internationally. The spin-off for the above ideas, of course, would equate to more revenue to help maintain the City of White Rock’s infrastructure and services, while at the same time enhancing our city culturally.

…on the Semiahmoo Peninsula

Semiahmoo Secondary students developed and hosted free ESL program

Duo aims to break language barrier Sarah Massah

Staff Reporter

pair of Semiahmoo Secondary students have used their experience of coming to Canada to help shape an ESL program for fellow youth. Angel Chu and Rika Sugimoto, born in Taiwan and Japan, respectively, began the English Learner’s Club last year. The free program, developed and implemented by the two Grade 12 girls, was held on Monday evenings at White Rock Library from November to December. The decision to start the program came after Sugimoto, 18, learned that unlike Surrey Library’s Reading Buddies, White Rock did not have a reading club of its own. After discussing the idea with Chu, both agreed there was more need for an ESL program. “We decided to help them with oral and listening skills, rather than reading skills,” Chu, 18, said, noting they hope to repeat the program next fall if their postsecondary schedules allow. The program, which also fit into the teens’ International Baccalaureate curriculum, focused on interaction between participants in order to better learn the language, Sugimoto said. “In the beginning, they were nervous, but after a couple of sessions, they were so engaged. Having a small group worked well,” Sugimoto said. “Also focused a lot on encouraging each other.” Chu noted that the program – dubbed Stage English – was unique in that it required participants to stand for the entire class. “To maintain their focus, so they’re moving around and staying active, instead of dozing off,” she said. The duo started with pronunciation practice, then moved on to scenarios.

have the opportunity to practise my speaking and listening skills. I think that’s the confidence barrier. “I know people say it’s the language barrier that is preventing them from integrating fully into society, so I feel like it’s the confidence that will get that going.” The participation in the class was a boost of confidence for the two students as well. Sugimoto noted that despite she and Chu not having formal training to teach an ESL course, the

participants were not deterred. Chu recalled one student – a young boy – who, at first, was unwilling to participate despite his mother’s urging. By the middle of the class, he was in the very front, raising his hand to answer questions. “Even though we’re just high school students, it was great that the students and parents participated,” Sugimoto said. “I was really happy for those people who helped us develop this project as we went along.”

Non Surgical Skin Tightening by New Beauty Institute Ultherapy delivers low levels of focused heat to just the right depth below the skin to target the deep tissues. The surface of the skin remains undisturbed but the controlled injuryÂ to the deeper layers triggers a healing response in the skin. The skin contracts and tightens immediately and, like other skin tightening procedures, Ultherapy simulates the growth of new collagen, but DEEPER than ever before! A smooth applicator (placed on the skin) projects an image onto the screen that allows us to see and plan where to direct the energy. We deliver energy to two depths during a single treatment. One pass penetrates 3 mm in depth which is as deep as you can go and still be in the dermis. Another pass over the treatment area penetrates 4.5 mm into the superficial muscular apo-neurotic system (the SMAS layer). The SMAS is the layer of muscles targeted during surgical forehead, face and neck

lifts.Â An Ultherapyâ&#x201E;˘ treatment is non-surgical and cannot deliver the results of a surgical facelift. For people who are not ready for a facelift or just donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to have surgery, however, it is a non-invasive alternative that requires just a single treatment. Ultherapy can also be used to further enhance results of a surgical facelift. Your body's response to this energy is to recondition tired skin by stimulating the growth of fresh, new collagen. The result is a tightening and gradual liftingâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;or shiftingâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;of the skin back into a more youthful position and form-fitting shape.Â Unlike lasers, which penetrate the skin from the outside-in, the UltherapyÂŽprocedure bypasses the surface of the skin, specifically targeting the deep, structural skin tissues where collagen lives. Using ultrasound technology, Ultherapy actually works from the inside-out to lift and tighten skin non-invasively.

Pay attention to hygiene and personal safety, suggests fortune teller

Obstacles and extremes predicted for Year of the Goat A growing gap between rich and poor, a continued economic recession and many natural disasters are all in store this lunar year, suggests Lower Mainland fortune teller Sherman Tai. “The Year of the Goat is a year of obstacles and extremes, with a lot of disturbances,” the Richmond man said. “There tends to be a lot of disagreements and gossip between people with a lot of traps and people with twisted values.” The Year of the Goat—the eighth sign in the Chinese zodiac, also interpreted as a sheep or ram— starts Feb. 19. Celebrations across Metro Vancouver include countdown events, lion-dance shows, fairs and feasts. But for Tai, he’ll be busy looking into the future. This year marks the 26th time the fortune teller and feng shui master is making predictions for Asia and North America. In China, he says, the rich will get richer, the poor will get poorer. In the U.S., government will attempt to stabilize the economy through patchwork, resulting in gains for large corporations, but nothing for the lower and middle classes.

Canada, he suggests, will be directly affected by the declining U.S. economy. Yet it will fare better due to a relatively conservative economic policy. Interest rates, he suggests, will be stable and low for most of the year. The winter could bring a quarter per cent increase.

Celebrating Chamber of Commerce Week FEBRUARY 16 - 20, 2015

Decades of doing business on the Peninsula For nearly 78 years, the South Surrey & White Rock Chamber of Commerce has been dedicated to promoting local business, economic growth in the community and tourism on the Semiahmoo Peninsula. The chamber has always focused on supporting economic and social wellbeing, making the area a prosperous and favourable place to do business. What started as a small board of trade with 35 members on May 17, 1937, has become a community staple with more than 700 members, comprising businesses, professionals, community organizations and residents. With so many members, the chamber is able to provide access, support and marketing opportunities to help its members’ businesses expand and create partnerships that benefit individuals and the community alike. One of the biggest benefits to becoming a

member of the chamber is the opportunity to network, especially at monthly business showcasing the group’s events. Having a network of influential voices makes facing challenges that come with business easier to navigate. Advertising and marketing opportunities, including business listings in the chamber’s various directories, event sponsorship and brochure placement are another important part of the chamber’s mandate to promote its members. Being part of a network that comprises hundreds of businesses also means referrals – a crucial aspect to any business, new or old. Every year, the chamber fields thousands of inquiries about businesses, services, programs, accommodation and attractions in the community. A second-to-none group-health plan – including medical, dental, disability and extended benefits – is another plus.

The chamber also initiates many programs and events, including the Business Excellence Awards – held this year on Jan. 29 at Hazelmere Golf and Tennis Club – and Taste of the Peninsula. The Spirit of the Sea Festival, the regatta and an annual golf tournament for local charities are among many other ways the chamber helps promote the community as a cultural hub, attracting visitors from all over the Lower Mainland while showcasing the best the Peninsula has to offer. The chamber is constantly looking to the future as the business community on the Peninsula evolves and expands. Within the last few years, the chamber has become a part of the B.C. Chamber of Commerce, adding more support and network opportunities to its members. The chamber is also a member of the Canadian Chamber of Commerce –

18 YEARS

Canada’s largest and most-influential business association. With a network of more than 300 chambers of commerce nation-wide, representing 175,000 businesses of all sizes in all sectors, the Canadian Chamber of Commerce is a vital link between business and the federal government. The chamber also offers its members a variety of benefit programs, including discounts at various gas stations and the M2M Advantage Program, a memberto-member discount card which allows businesses to offer discounts and/or incentives to fellow chamber members and their employees. The South Surrey & White Rock Chamber of Commerce is located at 22-1480 Foster St. Hours are 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., Monday to Friday. Online: sswrchamberofcommerce.ca Call: 604-536-6844 Fax: 604-536-4994

…on the Semiahmoo Peninsula

Semiahmoo senior boys just two wins away from spot at basketball provincials

Totems knock off Wildcats for league title Nick Greenizan Sports Reporter

The Semiahmoo Totems senior boys basketball team is headed into Fraser Valley Championships on a high this week, after taking down the reigning division champs on the weekend. Last weekend, Semiahmoo won the Fraser Valley South division

crown after a convincing 97-62 win over the Tamanawis Wildcats, who last year became the first Surrey public school in 33 years to win a Fraser Valley title. With the win, the Totems will enter the Fraser Valley tournament as the No. 6 seed, and have earned a first-round bye – a first for the program under coach Ed Lefurgy.

Last year, Semi was an 11th seed in the regional tourney. “We’ve got the bye, which is really huge for us,” Lefurgy said. “Now if we win two more games, we go to provincials.” On Friday, Semiahmoo will play its first game, against the winner of a first-round matchup between Surrey’s Queen Elizabeth Secondary

and Abbotsford’s W.J. Mouat. Semiahmoo has not faced Queen Elizabeth yet this season, but did beat Mouat earlier in the year. Semiahmoo has been playing well all season, but Lefurgy said his troops have upped their game even further since a road trip to Vancouver Island in late January, where they played three exhibition

games – against Cowichan, St. Michael’s and G.P. Vanier. “Ever since that trip, the team has just been playing great. The guys are a very close-knit group, and they’ve really started to gel now,” he said. The key to their recent success – including the win over the Wildcats i see page 20

Eagles drop two to Chiefs Nick Greenizan Sports Reporter

For members of the Surrey Eagles, there wasn’t much to love about Valentine’s Day, as the team lost a 3-2 heartbreaker on the road against the Chilliwack Chiefs. The loss was the second in a row for the Eagles against their division rivals; Friday night at South Surrey Arena, the Chiefs stomped the Eagles 8-1. While Friday’s game was something of a blowout, Saturday’s was a much closer affair, with the two teams tied until late in the third period, when Chilliwack’s Craig Putter fired one past Surrey netminder Christian Short who was nearly unbeatable otherwise. Short stopped 44 of 47 Chiefs’ shots in the loss, earning first-star honours. Eagles’ defenceman Latrell Charleson opened the scoring with a power-play goal in the first period, but the Chiefs responded with a pair themselves. The lead lasted less than five minutes, however, as Cole Plotnikoff tied the game for Surrey before the period ended. In the game’s waning minutes, the only other fireworks came when Charleson – who was chasing a puck into the corner – got his arms up near the boards, and made contact with an official, who was shoved from behind. Charleson was given a game misconduct, and while the incident will no doubt be reviewed by the league, the general consensus was that there was no malicious intent. Charleson apologized to the referee, and then took to social media to explain himself. “It was not intentional and I meant in no way to hurt the ref,” he wrote Sunday on Twitter. “After the game I apologized to the ref and we shook hands. All ended well.”

Totems to open Fraser Valleys Friday As good i from page 19 – has been a much-improved defence, Lefurgy noted. “Our defensive intensity is just much better – it has been since the Island.” As well, the play of shooting guard Curtis Harvey has helped spur the team’s offence to greater heights. Harvey lead the team with 35 points against Tamanawis,

and Lefurgy said “he’s just been playing amazing.” Friday’s contest against the yetto-be-determined opponent is scheduled to be played at Holy Cross School at 6 p.m. If the Totems are able to advance past that game, they’ll play Monday night. A win Monday, and they’ll be guaranteed one of the six Fraser

Valley berths at provincials. It’s been decades since a South Surrey public school qualified for the AAA ( now 4A) provincials. “That would be huge – it would mean everything to us,” Lefurgy said about qualifying for the provincial tournament. “But we can’t look that far ahead. First, we have to worry about Friday.”
