LEARNING CENTRES ON THE MOVE ▶ NORTH SURREY SITE RETURNING TO OLD LOCATION; CLOVERDALE CENTRE TO BE RELOCATED
SHEILA REYNOLDS
Students at North Surrey Learning Centre (NSLC) will attend school at a new location beginning this fall. The alternative program, for teens in Grades 10 to 12, is currently housed in a leased building in Newton, near 77 Avenue and 137 Street. The Surrey School District was informed the building’s owner wasn’t renewing the lease and the program would have to move at the end of the school year. There are about 240 students at the learning centre. In September, they will attend classes at the current site of Surrey College, behind the district head office at 140 Street and 92 Avenue. (The college’s programs have been downsized significantly and most of its programs will move next door to the new Resource Education Centre in the fall). The move brings the NSLC full-circle, as it was previously located at the 140 Street site, but had to move in 2008 while the school district’s new head office building was under construction. continued on page 9

MAYORS TACKLE TAX DOUBT ▶ CALLERS FROM SOUTH OF FRASER, TRI-CITIES OFFER MANY REASONS TO VOTE ‘NO’ IN TRANSIT REFERENDUM
JEFF NAGEL
Mayors from two of the region’s fastest-growing cities – Surrey and Coquitlam – pleaded for a transit referendum “yes” vote with mostly skeptical local callers in back-toback telephone town halls last week.
Surrey Mayor Linda Hepner was joined Thursday evening by White Rock Mayor Wayne Baldwin, while Coquitlam Mayor Richard Stewart took calls Wednesday with Vancouver Board of Trade CEO Iain Black. “This is one of those rare moments that is so clearly about the future,” Hepner said. “If we let this fall apart – and that is a great fear of mine – it will be years and years and years in the making before we can come up with something else.” Each mayor outlined the significant local improvements that will come to their cities, including light rail lines in Surrey, a B-Line express bus route to White Rock and much

improved transit service, with buses connecting South Surrey to the Canada Line every five minutes in rush hour. Baldwin appealed to voters to think not of how upgrades will benefit themselves, but their kids and grandchildren. “It’s not for me, this is for her,” he said Thursday. Baldwin said much of the increased transit service under the plan would be concentrated south of the Fraser, which has historically been underserved. “Finally, it’s going to be our turn.” continued on page 11

B.C. billionaire to oversee transit tax cash if ‘yes’ side wins ▶ JIM PATTISON ASKED TO ENSURE FUNDS ARE NOT MISSPENT JEFF NAGEL
Billionaire B.C. businessman Jim Pattison gave transit referendum “yes” forces a lift Thursday by agreeing to chair a committee to oversee the flow of money if voters approve the proposed sales tax increase. The move aims to bolster the assurances of the Metro Vancouver Mayors’ Council that money from the 0.5-per-cent Congestion Improvement Tax will go to the projects set out in the accompanying plan, and not be misspent by TransLink as opponents predict. Pattison told Black Press he intends to vote yes in the referendum. “For me, I think it’s the right thing to do,” he said of his personal position in the referendum. He rejected suggestions he is part of the yes campaign. “I have not joined any campaign,” Pattison said. “I have been asked to get involved to oversee – if there is a yes vote – that the funds go to where they’re supposed to go.” He was approached “in the last few days” by Vancouver Mayor Gregor Robertson, who told reporters that mayors had been planning an oversight committee for a number of months. Pattison won’t be paid for his role – which Robertson described as independent – as chair

Surrey business women honoured at annual awards NICK GREENIZAN
Liberal Party of Canada Leader Justin Trudeau highlighted last week’s Surrey Women in Business Awards luncheon, speaking on the value of supporting female entrepreneurship and leadership – both in Surrey and across the rest of the country. Trudeau’s speech at the sold-out event – which was hosted by the Surrey Board of Trade March 5 at Eaglequest Golf Course – was well-received by some of the city’s top business women, many of whom were honoured for their achievements over the past 12 months. Awards were handed out in four categories and judged on the nominees’ work in Surrey, business acumen, leadership, balanced lifestyle and community involvement and service. In the Entrepreneur category, the winner was Angela Herd of The Family Hope Clinic. Herd founded the clinic in 2011 and according to a news release from the board of trade, was chosen because “she has demonstrated a long-standing commitment to support people of all ages and abilities in hospitals, schools, the non-profit sector, private practice and public service.” She is also an active volunteer, it was noted. In the Professional category, Dr. Jane Fee of Kwantlen Polytechnic University was named the winner. Fee currently serves as the vice-provost/students and deputy provost at KPU, and “has been a leader in the post-secondary education sector for over three decades.”
“Her expertise is in the administration of post-secondary learner-focused programs and services and student success.” In the Not-for-Profit Leader award category, Coreen Windbeil from the Surrey Association for Community Living was honoured. Windbeil is executive director of the organization, which for the past 57 years has provided community services such as residential/home-share living arrangements, social activities and day programs and employment skills and training. “Windbiel leads by example and empowers people to feel confident in their abilities – she strives to break down barriers and search for new opportunities,” it was noted by SBOT. The award in the Corporate/Leadership category went to Hanne Madsen of GroYourBiz, a peer-topeer advisory board for women business owners, senior managers and entrepreneurs. With over 20 years experience in financial analysis and management, Madsen assists women “in overcoming their challenges, leading them to develop innovative action plans, and (provides) them with support, training and expert advice.” “Women are contributing more than ever to B.C.’s economy, but many still face barriers,” said Tamara Vrooman, president and CEO of Vancity, which was the awards luncheon’s presenting sponsor. “These awards, which recognize the hard work of Surrey’s business women and their contributions to the community, can help inspire women and men of all ages to make meaningful changes when it comes to supporting women in business and leadership.”

Simon Fraser University President Andrew Petter is urging a “yes” vote in the Metro Vancouver transit referendum for the sake of SFU’s future students. “People need to think about what’s at stake in the plebiscite in human terms,” Petter said Wednesday. “If we have a situation – which we’re close to right now
– where kids can’t get seats in buses, it means they won’t be able to get seats in classrooms.” Petter said there are already huge delays for students waiting for buses that frequently pass them by full. Both Petter and UBC President Arvind Gupta said their universities need effective transportation and urged a more informed debate in the referendum. So far the “no” side has the advantage, propelled by accusations of waste at TransLink and opposition to the proposed 0.5-per-cent regional sales tax to fund transit upgrades.

been at the forefront of the no campaign and it took another jab at TransLink Wednesday by giving the transportation authority a lifetime achievement award for wasting tax dollars. CTF B.C. Director Jordan Bateman cited TransLink’s recent move to replace its CEO but keep him on the payroll. “Only TransLink could have found a way to shoehorn more tax money into its executive suite,” he said. Bateman argues predictions of worsening congestion are fear mongering and that a no vote will force real reform at TransLink. “It’s easy for him from his perch to take a very negative approach to this,” Petter said.

Mayors had previously pledged annual audits and a separate accounting system would ensure the money wouldn’t become part of general revenue for TransLink. Surrey Mayor Linda Hepner said the additional step of naming a blue ribbon panel was taken because many voters are “still skeptical” and “the word audit makes everybody’s eyes glaze over.” No TransLink Tax campaign head Jordan Bateman predicts any audits will succeed only in uncovering waste after the fact, not preventing it, and said Pattison’s committee will have no power to force changes or penalize TransLink if funds are poorly spent. He called it a desperate “Hail Mary pass” by mayors that won’t work. Pattison is chairman and CEO of the Jim Pattison Group, Canada’s second-largest private company. Bateman said he had “the utmost respect” for Pattison but wasn’t surprised he is voting yes. “We expect most of the big business types to vote yes,” Bateman said. “He’s in a position where he can afford to pay more taxes than the average British Columbian.”

VIEWPOINT
The Surrey-Nor th Delta Leader Tuesday M arch 10 2015
Do school boards have a stash of cash? School trustees across B.C., including those in Surrey and Delta, must be scratching their heads at the premier’s apparent lack of awareness about what’s going on in their schools and administration offices. Last month, Christy Clark suggested school boards grab a step-ladder and start picking some “low-hanging fruit” – to the tune of nearly $54 million over the next two years – from district administrative costs. Later, Education Minister Peter Fassbender clarified that school districts must find efficiencies to get administrative costs down to six per cent, where they were 10 years ago, which requires 0.5-per-cent savings this year and one per cent the year after. While there is a concern
that trimming administrative costs will eat up valuable dollars that must go to the classroom, the province should lead the way by showing where this cost-cutting should be made. Among the ideas being touted is converting school board meetings to a paperless model and moving professional development workshops outside school hours, thereby saving in substitute teaching costs. BC School Trustees’ Association president Teresa Rezansoff has been quoted as saying that Clark’s comments ignore the fact that school districts are already working together to save money and have been doing so for years.
RAESIDE
In fact, Surrey has the lowest administrative costs of any of the 60 school districts in the province. And it’s worth noting that Surrey is forced to spend more than $4 million in funding on portable classrooms each year due to a lack of school space. Cost-cutting measures such as bulk buying and sharing services have been tried by many school districts with more or less success, depending on the district and its circumstances. Everyone hates waste, but instead of making off-thecuff comments, would the premier please show school boards exactly where the hidden cache of cash is located?
Seniors’ advocate strikes a chord BC VIEWS ▼ Tom Fletcher
B.C.’s new seniors’ advocate has issued her second report, and the media mostly ignored it. When this new office was promised by a campaigning Premier Christy Clark two years ago, I suggested that B.C. already has 85 seniors’ advocates. They’re called MLAs, and inquiries go to their local offices. Much to the chagrin of the opposition, Seniors’ Advocate Isobel Mackenzie’s mandate is not to pursue individual cases, and so she won’t be serving up a fresh assortment of horror stories to embarrass the government. Instead, it is to look for “systemic challenges” and recommend ways to deal with them. The latest report is based on a survey of more than 500 seniors from around the province, and the key finding was not what she expected. “We were surprised to learn of the lack of awareness among seniors, particularly low-income seniors, of government programs and the subsidies available to assist them,” Mackenzie said. The survey found that 60 per cent of
seniors living on $30,000 or less annual income didn’t know they are eligible for discounts on Medical Services Plan premiums. For income less than $22,000, the entire $864 cost of individual MSP premiums is waived. Other frequently overlooked programs are a monthly rent subsidy called Shelter Aid for Elderly Renters (SAFER), grants for disability modifications called Home Adaptations for Independence, drug cost assistance called Fair Pharmacare, property tax deferment and the federal Guaranteed Income Supplement program. Those older than 75 with income of less than $30,000 reported the lowest awareness of assistance designed specifically for them. But you don’t get these benefits unless you apply and show that your income qualifies. The survey also found that the biggest fear of low-income seniors is that they won’t be able to afford to stay in their homes. See home adaptation, property tax and rent subsidy programs above. Awareness and usage of the SAFER
program was lowest in the north and highest in urban areas, perhaps not surprising since the B.C. government exists more in theory than in fact in many remote places. So what should the government do about this? Well, it could advertise these programs. The government does lots of advertising, but not about old news like the SAFER program, which dates back to the 1970s. Clark’s government did a whack of advertising in the election year, 2013. Much of it was about the B.C. Jobs Plan, heavy on the hardhats and blueprint-style graphics and arc welding and stuff like that. Then last year the government’s big ad campaign was around the teachers’ strike, and the payments to parents to help with child care while teachers demanded twice as big a raise as all the other unions. Education Minister Peter Fassbender is still bragging about the response

rate for $40-a-day parental strike pay, which was snapped up by almost 100 per cent of eligible parents. This demonstrates that the government can indeed give away money with great efficiency, just by telling people how to get it. The NDP’s version of seniors’ advocacy is to find the most tragic problems from complaints coming into constituency offices, and use those to ambush the government. A popular choice is an elderly couple who have to be separated because their medical needs are too different to keep them in the same facility. TV news loves that one. People cry on camera and denounce politicians for being heartless, as if the health minister stayed up late plotting how to break their granny’s heart. Maybe this seniors’ advocate wasn’t such a bad idea after all. Tom Fletcher is legislature reporter and columnist for Black Press.

Vote yes for health
▼ TRANSIT TAX WILL FUND CRITICAL INVESTMENTS IN HEALTHIER TRANSPORTATION CHOICES
Re: Transportation referendum. As a public health physician and the medical health officer for Surrey, I specialize in the health of communities. A big part of my job is working with the municipality and diverse groups in the community to advance public programs, policies and investments that reduce risk of disease and injury – and ultimately save lives. I’m writing today to urge Surrey residents to vote yes in the transportation referendum. This month, you will receive a ballot in the mail asking if you support a 0.5-per-cent increase in the Provincial Sales Tax in order to fund billions of dollars in transportation improvements. If the yes vote wins, Surrey will
get more frequent rapid transit, modern light rail trains, more express buses and increased bus service overall, protected bike paths and a new, safer Pattullo Bridge. Access to frequent transit will greatly increase – with 300,000 additional people south of the Fraser able to walk five minutes or less to transit that runs every 15 minutes into evening and weekends. These improvements will enable thousands of people to have practical choices in how to get around. It will allow us to integrate exercise into our busy lives, shrink our commutes, spend less time in gridlock and gain quicker access to the services, jobs, recreation opportunities, friends and family that keep us all healthy. Even if you never take transit, you’ll still benefit: better air quality, reduced risk of traffic injuries for all road users, including those who walk, cycle, take transit or drive, less congestion, and a healthier, more connected community. This is not a vote about TransLink, but a no vote will
delay critically needed transportation improvements. I will be voting yes as someone who walks, cycles, takes transit and drives. I will be voting yes as a physician who wants a healthier community. This month, you can make history with a yes win, a win for critical investments in healthier transportation choices. Please vote. This is an opportunity we can’t afford to miss. Dr. Helena Swinkels Medical Health Officer, Surrey

Volunteer charged with child luring ▶ VICTOR OVERFIELD ARRESTED AFTER UNDERAGE SURREY GIRL FILED COMPLAINT WITH RCMP SHEILA REYNOLDS
A North Vancouver man has been arrested and charged with child luring and invitation to sexual touching a female under 16 – and Surrey RCMP are encouraging other potential victims to come forward. Victor Marco Antonio Overfield, 27, was arrested and charged Dec. 19, 2014.
The offences allegedly took place in early November last year and Surrey Mounties were contacted a month later. Overfield was charged Dec. 19. Police say Overfield volunteered with the Royal Canadian Sea Cadets in North Vancouver from 2007 to 2012 and with the Navy League Cadets in Vancouver from 2012 until his arrest late last year. Surrey RCMP Cpl. Bert Paquet said there is no indication there are additional victims, but police have released Overfield’s identity out of an abundance of caution. “If there’s even one victim out there, we need to be in contact,”
he said, adding the release of Overfield’s volunteer work with cadet groups was also intentional. “In that capacity, he would have been in touch with under-age persons.” Overfield was released from custody in January under several conditions, including that he have no contact with his alleged victim or other young people. His next court date is scheduled for March 13 in Surrey Provincial Court. Anyone with more information pertaining to Overfield is asked to contact the Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).

Surrey mayor heads to Israel ▶ CENTRE FOR ISRAEL AND JEWISH AFFAIRS PAYING FOR LINDA HEPNER’S BUSINESS TRIP KEVIN DIAKIW
Mayor Linda Hepner is going to Israel this week to shop for companies interested in the city’s Innovation Boulevard. Hepner and the City of Surrey’s Manager of Economic Development Donna Jones are heading to Israel for a week for an international
academic event. Hepner said she was amassing the names of several companies that might expand or relocate to Surrey. “The world brain conference, called Brain Tech, is happening in Tel Aviv at that same time,” Hepner said last week. “And Canada is actually doing a presen-

Dedicated lanes open on the Port Mann â–ś CHANGE BRINGS SEPARATE WESTBOUND LANES, RELOCATED EXIT FOR COQUITLAM
JEFF NAGEL
Drivers heading from Surrey to Coquitlam via Highway 1 began using separate dedicated westbound lanes over the Port Mann Bridge on March 7. The change also means westbound Highway 1’s Exit 44 to Coquitlam will now be relocated to before the bridge and just before the 152 Street inter-
change. Instead of merging onto the freeway from 152 northbound, traffic from Surrey bound for Coquitlam now splits off into the dedicated lanes. Once in a dedicated lane for Coquitlam, drivers can’t rejoin the freeway, so project officials are reminding motorists headed to Vancouver or Burnaby to keep left. HOV lane users that enter Highway 1 westbound at 156 Street in order to get the 25 per cent HOV toll discount aren’t able to access the first exit to Coquitlam and have to use Brunette instead.
Left lane hogs not a priority for police chiefs â–ś CONCERNS RAISED ENFORCEMENT MAY SPUR MORE SPEEDING JEFF NAGEL

The change brings the route close to its final westbound configuration but more work is expected in the months ahead to add similar dedicated eastbound lanes from Coquitlam to Surrey. The bridge’s 10 lanes should all be open, with the local connection lanes in operation, by summer. A large volume of Port Mann Bridge traffic goes directly between Surrey and Coquitlam and the dedicated local lanes mean those drivers don’t have to merge onto the freeway and then exit over the bridge. That’s expected to reduce weaving and unsafe lane changes on the bridge.

Delta Hospice Society Seeks New Board Members The Delta Hospice Society is seeking a number of Society members for consideration toward nomination for Board service over the next three years. Candidates living in Delta should be visionary, open to opportunity, able to listen well and give thoughtful consideration to issues. They should be interested in leading and governing rather than being involved in how the organization runs on a day to day basis. To find more information about the board governance model or to express your interest in becoming a board member, please go to the Society’s website at www.deltahospice. org, and look under ‘who we are’, ’board of directors’. The Society works towards reducing suffering and enhancing comfort, meaning, dignity and hope for those living with lifethreatening illness, end of life and loss.
sub-committee. “We’re looking at things that can make a difference and save people’s lives,� Dubord said. “This wasn’t one of our top two priorities.� The association of police chiefs is looking forward to the promised new legislation, he said, but is concerned enforcement could encourage speeding. “What’s the message you send by enforcing against someone who’s going the speed limit and not keeping up with traffic?� Dubord asked. “Those are messages we have to be very, very careful on. We don’t want to reinforce to someone that when traffic is moving faster than the speed limit you can’t go the speed limit.� Dubord predicted any improved ticketing power would be of only “limited use� in Metro Vancouver because of frequent congestion and because drivers need to use the left lane to exit or turn off of some routes, such as Marine Way in Vancouver. Dubord said it might have some application on Highways 99 and 91, but its main use would be on rural highways outside the Lower Mainland.

▶ MAYOR DEFENDS KEEPING PRIOR TRANSLINK CEO ON PAYROLL Just 20 per cent of south-of-Fraser residents currently live within walking distance of a frequent bus route running at least every 15 minutes, but Baldwin said that would climb to 54 per cent under the plan. Mayors also pointed to the planned 80-per-cent increase in night bus service, helping late shift workers to and from work. In both town halls, callers complained about unfair bridge tolling and suggested lower tolls be charged on all bridges so that all drivers pay fairly towards transportation improvements. “Use that money so everybody pays instead of just people south of the Fraser,” a Surrey caller urged. Hepner said the planned 0.5-percent sales tax will result in “everybody paying their fair share throughout the entire region” and added tourists will contribute as well. Hepner also defended the decision to keep recently replaced TransLink CEO Ian Jarvis so his “enormous skills” could continue to be used rather than just terminating him and having to pay severance. Other issues touched on included difficult bus access from South Surrey to the Tsawwassen ferry terminal and the South Surrey Park and Ride expansion built by the province that’s been empty since it opened due to the imposition of pay parking there.

more callers vowing to vote no, citing various complaints about local transportation. “These are things we are trying to fix,” Stewart responded, adding that to reject new money that could actually improve transit is equivalent to saying “I’m going to kick myself.” Some said they can’t afford the new sales tax and will vote no because they pay too much now to cross the tolled Port Mann Bridge. Black said road pricing is proposed for the region and could reform the toll structure but said it isn’t likely to come for 10 to 15 years. One Tri-Cities caller said she doesn’t believe the vote is as critical as yes campaigners claim. “The world isn’t going to come to an end if we don’t vote this thing through in the next few months,” she said. Stewart predicted there will be no investments in transit for a decade without a yes vote. “Don’t let the perfect get in the way of the good,” he said of the proposed upgrades and the state of TransLink, which came under fire from callers in both town halls. Black, a former BC Liberal MLA, said a no vote would send a strong signal to government that the region’s residents oppose more spending and would not create any impetus to find a Plan B or reform TransLink. Baldwin warned that the Plan B being pushed by the province is higher property taxes and said the sales tax is at least more equitable than that.

Thrust into the role, albeit temporarily, when first Anderson then backup Robin Lehner were sidelined with injuries, Hammond excelled in the Ottawa net. The former Surrey Eagle put up amazing numbers in an eight-game run as the Sens’ starting netminder, winning seven games – the one loss by shootout – and posting a goals against average of 1.43 with a save percentage of .954.

Their season came to a quick end Sunday afternoon in Port Coquitlam. And while they could have achieved more, the Valley West Hawks aren’t going to call it a disappointing campaign after they were eliminated from the BC Hockey Major Midget League playoffs in straight games. The Vancouver Chiefs swept the Hawks 7-5 and 5-0 to win their best-of-three quarterfinal series. The games were played Saturday and Sunday at the Port Coquitlam Recreation Centre. “It’s not the ending we were looking for, but it would be a stretch to really call it a disappointment,” said Hawks head coach Jessie Leung. “The parity across our ▶ “The parity league is incredible. “I was very proud to stand across our behind our players all sealeague is son long.

Missing players due to injury and the Canada Winter Games, the Hawks went 0-5-2 (won-lost-tied) over the last seven games of the season and dropped from a battle for third place to sixth in the final standings. They then drew the Chiefs for the first round of the playoffs, and couldn’t keep up with the league’s hottest team over the past five weeks. “We came close to a win in game one but couldn’t close the deal,” said Leung. “The Chiefs have been a machine the last month of the regular season. They bent, but did not break and found a way to win. “It was a tight game, much tighter than the score might suggest.” Playing without leading scorer James Malm, who was injured while at the Canada Winter Games, the Hawks put forth their best effort against the Chiefs early in game one. Jeffrey Stewart of Surrey gave Valley West a 1-0 lead after one period, then after the Chiefs went up 2-1 early in the second, Stewart assisted on a goal by White Rock’s Matt Barberis then scored his second of the game for a 3-2 Valley West advantage midway through the game. The Hawks took a 4-2 lead into the third period with the fourth goal from Trevor Ayre of Semiahmoo Minor Hockey, but then the wheels fell off. Vancouver scored four times in the first 10 minutes of the third period, then when the Hawks pulled to within

The Senators blew a 4-0 third period lead, but prevailed 5-4 in a shootout, prompting questions as to whether Hammond or Anderson will start tonight (Tuesday) against the Boston Bruins. But regardless, Hammond has had an impressive run he won’t soon forget. “You know what?

Sunday morning, the Chiefs scored three times in the first period and twice more in the third for the shutout victory. “We were really short staffed all weekend,” said Leung. “We had players returning from injury right in time for game one and had other players playing when they otherwise wouldn’t be. “Barberis was a warrior for us. He came down with strep throat in the days leading up to our series, which took a bit of wind out of his sails.” While the current season is now over for the Hawks, the next will begin in just a few weeks with a spring identification camp May 1-3 at Langley Twin Rinks. “I’m going to take probably a week to decompress,” said Leung. “We’ll have our exit interviews, then will be back to work shortly thereafter.”

Three days later, he stopped all but one shot in a 4-1 home-ice win over the Florida Panthers, then kicked off a five-game road trip with a 25-save effort while earning his first NHL shutout with a 3-0 victory over the Anaheim Ducks in California. His second shutout was a day later, when he blanked the defending Stanley Cup champion Los Angeles Kings 1-0, making 35 saves. He made history, and headlines, with a 4-2 triumph in San Jose over the Sharks. He became the first goalie in Sens history to win his first five NHL starts, and was named the league’s First Star of the Week on March 1. More importantly, the Senators climbed from 10 points behind the Boston Bruins for the final playoff position in the Eastern Conference to as few as three as of last Friday. “Let’s not call him a flash in the pan. He’s the real deal to me,” said Senators head coach Dave Cameron. “He’s the real deal to our hockey club right now. We wouldn’t be where we are, closing in on the gap, if it wasn’t for him.”
