ICBC launches road safety speaker tour; targets teens ▼ JOHN WESTHAVER LOST THREE OF HIS FRIENDS AND ALMOST DIED HIMSELF IN A HIGH-SPEED CRASH IN 1994 LAUREN COLLINS

Twenty-one years ago, with high school graduation mere weeks away, 18-year-old John Westhaver was doing what many teens do this time of year: Looking forward to the end of the school year. On April 29, 1994, Westhaver and three of his friends were driving down a highway in New Brunswick. Westhaver and two others had been drinking, but the friend behind the wheel had stayed sober. The driver, however, was travelling 50 km/h over the speed limit and lost control. The car hit a telephone pole and was engulfed in flames. Westhaver managed to make it out of the vehicle, but the other three were not so lucky. Westhaver was the sole survivor – but barely. He was charred black by the fire and suffered life-threatening burns to 75 per cent of his body. Doctors at the hospital’s burn unit in Saint John believed he wasn’t going to make it. They put him into a medically induced coma and his body shut down several times. When the young man finally woke up, his family and physicians wouldn’t let him see

▼ FORDY REVIEWING SURREY’S NEEDS

▶ NEW GROUP PROVIDES EXTRA EYES AND EARS FOR POLICE

As to whether Surrey can get a total of 100 new officers this year, Surrey RCMP Sgt. Dale Carr said there’s good faith amongst the upper ranks that the personnel request will be filled. They all might not be dressed and ready for duty in 2015, but Carr said the full amount should be arriving early next year. If Surrey fills those positions, it would represent a sea change in distribution. Figures obtained by The Leader show that since 2008, Surrey hasn’t received more than two per cent of the nation’s graduating recruits. Last year, Fordy said he had been assured by those higher up that the request for 100 more Mounties can be met. In his newsletter this week, he detailed how those new recruits will be used. “I plan to increase our first responders’ police presence (ie. general duty) and review our needs for traffic services, the youth unit, community policing and investigative services,” Fordy said. “This growth will allow our police officers to spend more time engaged in proactive policing initiatives across the city.”

More than 600 firefighters from across Canada gathered in South Surrey Monday to remember one of their brothers – a man who “cared about people, cared about his job, cared about helping people.” “Today was a very sad day,” said Mike McNamara Monday, following the private service at Peace Portal Alliance Church for his close friend and colleague, Kevin Hegarty. The acting captain at South Surrey’s Hall 13 died March 1 after years of helping others on the job deal with post-traumatic stress disorder, a condition he himself lived with. “He turned his battle into helping others,” fire Chief Len Garis said of the 53-year-old father. “That’s the kind of guy he was.” In Hegarty’s honour, Garis pledged that more would be done to continue the firefighter’s work. He was an advocate for mental health, worked with the BC Burn Fund and assisted the Surrey Fire Fighters’ Charitable Society. “He tried to help others with what he was suffering with,” Garis said. “That became him and he died from that. Kevin’s legacy will be something that we can build together, so this does not happen again.” McNamara said Hegarty’s death was a shock to all who knew him. In the days prior, Hegarty was “happy and jovial,” he said. Following the service, firefighters lined either side of the route leaving the church, saluting a final farewell to Hegarty as his casket passed. In lieu of flowers, donations to the Surrey Fire Fighters’ Charitable Society, the Canadian Mental Health Association or BC Burn Fund “in memory of Kevin Hegarty” are encouraged.

Municipal auditor replaces Basia Ruta ▶ SURREY POLICE COST PROBE AMONG DELAYED AUDITS JEFF NAGEL

An acting Auditor General for Local Government (AGLG) has been named, allowing work to continue on municipal audits that had been in progress, including probes of how Surrey and New Westminster manage policing costs. Arn van Iersel, a former B.C. comptroller general and acting auditor general, takes over for Basia Ruta, who was fired by the province last week after she tried to block a review of her office’s performance. “I am confident that this appointment will bring stability to the office and provide strong leadership during the transition period,” said Coralee Oakes, the minister responsible. A review of the AGLG office led by

Chris Trumpy is underway and expected to lead to further reforms in the AGLG function. The AGLG’s website indicates an audit of Sechelt’s capital procurement is next up for release in April. Police management audits were also previously announced for Merritt, Port Alberni, Victoria and Williams Lake, while several other cities or regional districts are the subject of audits of capital procurement or value for money in operational procurement. AGLG officials won’t say how advanced the Surrey policing audit is. But Surrey city officials say there have been 20 to 25 meetings since June of 2013 between the AGLG and senior city staff, the former mayor and councillors. The Surrey audit was originally scheduled for completion in

Grocery wine sales begin ▶ SHELVES OF SAVE-ON FOODS STOCKED TRACY HOLMES

B.C. wines have arrived on the shelves of SaveOn-Foods in South Surrey. While reports of the new product coming to the South Point store have been circulating since last week, a Ministry of Justice spokesperson confirmed a liquor licence has been issued and sales began April 1. “As of this morning, you can buy wine there,” the individual told Black Press Wednesday, noting the store is the first B.C. grocery store to be licensed for wine sales. According to a Ministry of Justice news release issued last week, April 1 marked the first day that licensed grocery stores “are allowed to sell liquor through the store-within-a-store model and wineon-shelves model.” An ad on workopolis.com invited applications through April 1 for the position of ‘Wine Advisor’ at the store. “Being a part of the Save-On-Foods team, the wine advisor will work in our wine department to create an exciting legendary customer service experience with prompt service, product knowledge expertise, and quality local wine products,” the ad states.

in discord with her staff and her governing audit council. The office has so far released just three reports.

The office was created by the premier to seek savings at the local government level by comparing various municipalities.

A letter to my community We Need a Do-over

in the relationship between public charities and the community People in our communities have demonstrated time and again they have a very generous spirit. They are more than willing to support those in need. However in recent years, the number of people supporting public charities has been declining. So what’s happening? People are looking for a more personal giving experience as well as more transparency on how their donations are being used. According to the Fraser Institute, the number of people supporting public charities has been in decline since 2006 and less than 22% of people in our province that file tax returns support public charities. Reports from the BMO Philanthropy Group and Imagine Canada indicate that Canadian donors are concerned that charities will not use donations wisely and spend excessively on administration. We need a “do-over”. Many of our public charities spend a significant amount of our donations asking us for money. Glossy brochures and magazines, full page ads, radio and television promotions, bill boards, lots of staff making calls to prospective donors, we can go on and on. In my view, a charity soliciting for donations is not engaging the community. Why does community engagement matter? I believe community engagement is all about inviting people to share their ideas, their opinions, their life experiences and professional skills. It involves accepting people based on who they are and not how much money they have or how well they’ re educated. Community engagement is an open and honest discussion between people about what serves the best interests of the community without fear of rejection or ridicule. I believe many of our charities need to redefine their relationship with supporters if they are to meet the ever increasing social needs of their community. An important first step should include an invitation to all volunteers and financial supporters to join as voting members. Voting membership should be available to anyone who is prepared to commit themselves to the constitution and by-laws of the charity they support. The rights of voting members should include the right to attend the charity’s Annual General Meeting, the right to participate in the board nomination process, the right to make proposals and direct questions to board members and staff at a meeting of the membership. Voting members are more likely to become volunteers, are more likely to be generous with their donations, more likely to become vocal advocates for the work of the charity in the community. Those in the community that choose not to become members but wish to be supporters would have greater confidence making a donation with the knowledge that charity leadership is accountable to an engaged voting membership. We need a strong vibrant charity presence in every community. I believe people will respond to charities that adopt community engagement as a core operating principle. If charities begin by embracing the talents, the experience and passion of those that live in the community, people will not only respond with their cheque books, but more importantly with their hearts. Sincerely,

John Block donor, volunteer, neighbour President, Donors Rights Society

THIS WEEK’S QUESTION: Do you talk with your teenage driver about road safety? To answer, go to the home page of our website at surreyleader.com

Last week we asked: Do you plan to send your transit referendum ballot in right away or will you wait until closer to the May 29 deadline? Here’s how you responded:

I’m sending it in right away 76% I’m waiting until the bitter end 17% I’m not voting 7%

Surrey shortchanged Surrey will get a ninth MLA – if the recommendations of the BC Electoral Boundaries Commission are adopted by the provincial government. From a population perspective, Surrey is currently under-represented, with two of the eight existing ridings having more than 25 per cent more people than the provincial average. However, the work of the commission, which is trying to rectify the imbalance in population between rural and urban ridings, was done with one hand behind its back. The province ordered it not to increase the number of MLAs by more than two – to 87 – which it has done. However, it was also ordered not to take any seats away from three areas of the province which are consistently declining in their share of provincial population. Thus the number of MLAs in the north, the Cariboo and Thompson regions, and the Columbia and Kootenay regions stays the same. With such guidelines, the commission’s work is seriously flawed. The province is on the brink of entrenching that there be permanent imbalances in the population of ridings – as has been done on

the federal level. Thus Prince Edward Island, with 130,000 people, has four MPs and likely always will. Meanwhile, Surrey, a city of 500,000 people, has also had four MPs and will only be getting an additional representative after this October’s federal election. The provincial redistribution will see south and east Surrey get additional representation, albeit with some unusual dividing up of true population. A portion of east Cloverdale and Clayton will be rolled into the new Surrey South riding, which will include all of South Surrey east of Highway 99 and north of 24 Avenue. The Surrey-White Rock riding will be shrunk to include White Rock and the most concentrated population area of South Surrey, including Ocean Park and Crescent Beach. Surrey-Cloverdale will not include any areas south of 56 Avenue, but will go north to Highway 1 and 96 Avenue to take in Tynehead and a portion of Fleetwood. Most of the other ridings have few changes, although

there will no longer be a Surrey-Tynehead riding. It is rearranged and becomes Surrey-Guildford. All the proposed new ridings will be between eight and 14 per cent above the provincial population average. The most populous will be Surrey-Cloverdale, with an estimated 61,060 people. That is more than three times as many residents as the least-populated riding, Stikine, which has an estimated 20,616 residents. The riding is huge, though – it takes up much of the northwest quarter of the province. There is no doubt that it is more challenging to serve as an MLA in an area that widespread, and there is some justification to allowing smaller populations in some of the largest rural ridings. However, the process which the province has dictated goes against the principle of representation by population. It does discriminate against areas of the province with large and growing populations, such as Surrey.

Praise for first responders Recently someone died in our backyard. He did not die alone; our neighbour and his twoand three-year-old grandsons, the staff and customers from both our stores and 12 to 14 RCMP, firefighters and ambulance personnel were there to see him on his way. It was on “Welfare Wednesday,” or “carnival” to many. This man’s life ended surrounded by drug paraphernalia on the cold and wet gravel, partially hidden by plywood from a recent renovation and the equipment the firefighters and ambulance paramedics used fighting to bring him back to life. This was not a celebration of life; there were

no smiles or laughter remembering the good times. There were only the grim faces of the emergency service providers who went about their jobs dealing with their own emotions and knowing at any moment another call could dispatch them to a similar scenario and they would once again have to step up to the challenge. A yellow tarp was draped over the deceased and the group of men and women slowly packed up and left, leaving behind a ball cap and a shoe showing from under the tarp. The man had to wait again for his next “trip” in the back of the coroner’s van. We are lucky to have these emergency response people, whose jobs must on some days

feel like they are going around in circles. Their job is no “carnival.” Perhaps we should take some time to reflect on the job that is done by emergency services first responders in Surrey - the paramedics, the police and the firefighters that seldom take the awards and accolades home with them, instead they take the memories like those above with them, memories that in the most part we the public never see because of those men and women who dedicate their lives to help others. For the job you did yesterday and the job you will do today: thank you. Pete Nichol

ICBC rates increased 5.2 per cent in 2013. The provincial government has taken $2.036 billion of ICBC money since 2010. BC Hydro loses 85 per cent of its net income to Victoria every year. Hydro had rate increases of nine per cent (2014-15) and six per cent (2015-16). Now transit wants $250 million each year (probably forever) and Victoria says it won’t dip into another honey pot. Hah.

Replacing the Pattullo Bridge is an urgent TransLink priority because the 77-year-old span could be knocked out at any time by an earthquake, river erosion or a ship collision. Pulling it offline before a new bridge opens – eight years away at the earliest – would trigger traffic chaos in the region and force toll-averse drivers to go even further out of their way if they won’t pay to cross the river. The $980-million replacement of the Pattullo with a new four-lane toll bridge, expandable to six lanes, is by far the biggest road-related project in the Mayors’ Council plan. But “no” forces say it shouldn’t be on the ballot at all – that it’s merely bait to lure drivers to vote “yes” in the referendum for an otherwise transit-heavy plan. So will a new Pattullo come even if voters defeat the proposed 0.5-per-cent sales tax increase to fund transportation upgrades? TransLink officials said as recently as October they’d aim to rebuild the Pattullo Bridge even if the referendum fails. Other observers also say that’s likely. “The Pattullo bridge probably would go ahead anyway,” said Robin Lindsey, a transportation and logistics professor at UBC’s Sauder School of Business. “The LRT plan in Surrey is less likely, but still far from a dead prospect.” Tolls alone would cover most of the longterm financing cost of the new bridge. But an expected shortfall in toll revenue in the early years means there’s a funding gap to be plugged – $90 million over the first 10 years or $130 million over 15 years – that the mayors say would be covered through the sales tax hike. It’s unclear where that will be found if there’s a no vote. “I’m not saying it

the plan. The mayors assume that money isn’t certain even under a yes vote but that it will pay the bridge off faster if it does arrive. TransLink has delayed major maintenance on the existing bridge as much as possible but a No vote will force that work to proceed – $200 million will be spent on bandaid repairs of a bridge that should soon be torn down. A yes result means those savings instead help fund the replacement. While a new Pattullo is to be user-pay, mayors intend to have a road pricing system in place by the time it opens, so it might not be tolled in the same way as the Port Mann and Golden Ears bridges, but as part of a broader system that Moore says would be more fair. Surrey-area voters also wonder if they’ll get a $2.1-billion light rail network regardless of the referendum outcome because of Surrey Mayor Linda Hepner’s election promise to find a Plan B for Light

www.surrey.ca/seniors www.surrey.ca/seniors

“It’s equitable funding from right across the region and from those who are visiting our region,” Hepner said. “A no vote means it will likely come at a very specific cost to Surrey alone.” Private partners might front the project costs but the city would still have to pay them. Hepner won’t say how money would be

raised for a light rail Plan B. But Surrey’s new mayor and council so far haven’t hesitated to raise local taxes to keep promises – they immediately imposed a $100-a-home “recreation” levy so the city could hire more police officers. Referendum Questions is a Black Press series

exploring issues related to the Metro Vancouver transit and transportation referendum. Voters must mail in ballots by May 29 on whether they support the addition of a 0.5 per cent sales tax in the region, called the Congestion Improvement Tax, to fund billions of dollars worth of upgrades.

‘Transport revolution’ could make transit obsolete: Think tank ▶ FRASER INSTITUTE SAYS UBER-LIKE CHOICES OVERLOOKED BY METRO PLAN JEFF NAGEL

A conservative think tank says Metro Vancouver’s transit expansion plan fails to consider rapidly evolving personal transportation technologies that may open up nimbler ways to get around than a rigid network of fixed routes and stations. The Fraser Institute’s Kenneth Green argues the region’s mayors underestimate the likely future influence of ride-matching services like Uber, carshare offerings like Car2Go and everything from private inter-city buses to potential autonomous “robocars.” He said Uber and Lyft are prime examples of new smartphone services that link willing drivers with passengers to create “highly dynamic” networks that can spontaneously adapt to changing demand through variable prices. “Market signals rather than transit planners determine the number of vehicles available to transport passengers,” Green wrote in a new Fraser Institute paper. Neither service is yet in Metro Vancouver, but Uber has been preparing to enter the market. He foresees much more individualized options on the road ahead. A Lyft user could book a Camry for the regular commute and a Jaguar for the late night date, he suggested. Dynamic, personalized transport may meet many goals of transit expansion supporters, he said, but potentially with less cost and less public subsidy. “We’re in the midst of a transportation revolution, yet the Metro Vancouver transit expansion plan barely acknowledges these new dynamic services that may eventually make mass transit systems obsolete,” Green said. He suggests fewer people in the future will own their own cars, more will use car- and ride-sharing options, and many of them may well use those options in concert with the public transit system. SFU City Program Director Gordon Price agrees on that point – people who give up their own cars because of shared car alternatives will likely also use more transit. But Price said no one should think any new service using cars can replace the role of mass transit by buses and trains. “The arithmetic simply does not work with that number of cars in that amount of road space,” Price said. “You cannot do it. There are laws of physics in the way.” It would be impossible to ever host another major stadium concert or sports event without transit to carry most participants, he said. Green’s paper notes criticism that new elite services may skim off the affluent, young and tech-savvy and leave transit with “a poorer, older, less diverse ridership.” Price said that outcome would dovetail neatly with the transit privatization agenda of conservatives like Green. “You take aim at the most profitable routes and then you leave the rest for an increasingly demoralized and impoverished public transit system, which makes it so much easier to cut because it’s viewed as a social service.”

Another shooting in Newton â&#x2013;ś TWO VEHICLES INVOLVED IN GUNFIRE WEDNESDAY MORNING KEVIN DIAKIW

April has started off with a bang in Surrey, as gunplay erupted from vehicles in Newton Wednesday morning. At about 11:40 a.m., police responded to gunfire between two cars at 128 Street and 64 Avenue. As of 2:20 p.m., there were no reports of injuries from the morning violence. Police believe the gunfire may have originated from a silver four-door

sedan, as it shot rounds at a black Honda sedan. Both vehicles were heading south on 128 Street and continued on that path after the shooting. There are no available descriptions of the people in the vehicles. There were 11 shootings in Surrey last month, with many of those occurring in Newton. Four of the incidents are related, police believe. The rest are believed to be targeted. Anyone with information is encouraged to call Surrey RCMP non-emergency line at 604-599-0502 or to remain anonymous, call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 (TIPS).

Policing station stays put â&#x20AC;&#x201C; for now KEVIN DIAKIW

The search for a new place to put the Newton policing station has failed to bear fruit. The City of Surrey has searched for the last year for a new spot for the building, currently located at 7235 137 St. The RCMP was looking for better visibility. Challenges included finding a spot with the right kind of access and enough parking. â&#x20AC;&#x153;After reviewing a number of potential location alternatives, city staff and the RCMP have been unable, to date, to identify suitable alternative premises that meet the functionality, visibility and parking requirements,â&#x20AC;? Surreyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s General Manager of Engineering Fraser Smith writes in a report to council. As such, Surrey has signed an extension at the current site, with an option to terminate the lease with 180 days notice after June 30, 2016. Meanwhile, the hunt for a new location continues.

According to Jane Adams, president and CEO of Surrey Hospital and Outpatient Centre Foundation, that’s why more than $1 million in funds is needed by the health authority to establish a short-stay psychiatric unit for children aged six to 17.

During that time, those young patients would be stabilized and assessed for further treatment.

pital in Vancouver. “These 10 beds will triple the capacity in the province,” said Adams. Abbotsford resident and mother of two Karen Copeland said she still recalls having to travel to Vancouver while her now 12-yearold son received psychiatric treatment at B.C. Children’s Hospital for his mental illness. The stress of commuting, additional expenses incurred, having to be away from her daughter and home, plus the reality of what her son was dealing with was simply “overwhelming.” “Anytime you can have a service like that (a Surrey youth psychiatric unit) locally, it is such a good thing for families,” Copeland said. “I just totally believe in having it in Surrey, in Fraser Health.” According to the foundation, about one in seven young people in B.C. will experience a mental illness during their lifetimes, and up to 70 per cent of those mental health problems begin to develop before the age of 18. The approximately $9 million needed to build and operate the facility will be paid by the FHA and government funding, Adams said. The remaining $1.25 million the foundation is raising will be used for making “the environment as child-friendly and sensory-appropriate as needed,” she added.

ricultural Land Reserve (ALR). But Metro’s regional planning committee and the ALC agreed last Friday to pursue a formal implementation plan to prosecute farmland violations and collaborate on other initiatives to improve farming. “The ALR is here and here to stay,” ALC chair Richard Bullock told

the rare joint meeting with Metro directors. “If we’re going to keep it active and productive, we’ve got to make sure agriculture is the first priority and agriculture is what happens on those lands, not other things like truck parking.” Bullock sought to rally Metro directors to the ALR preservation cause and turn the

page on the province’s controversial decision to divide the land reserve into two zones, with looser rules outside the Lower Mainland. “We’re still standing folks, we need you to stand with us,” he said. Roughly half of ALR land in Metro is farmed, another quarter isn’t farmed but could be, and the other quarter is tied up in other uses from parks and roads to industry and golf courses. Farmland owners are paid handsomely to accept fill and much of the dumping is unapproved, but Bullock said the ALC alone has too few compliance and enforcement staff to stop the rampant violations. Port Coquitlam Coun. Darrell Penner said municipal bylaw staff are too busy to take on farmland. “We have homeless people, we’ve got some

ehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communications is a system for transmitting basic safety information between vehicles travelling on the same roadway to minimize, if not wholly prevent, the possibility of them crashing into one another. Road Rules has written about V2V but the topic has not received much coverage in the main stream media, buried as it has been in technology development and study of its feasibility, implementation, costs/benefits— necessary for any such massive shift in safety systems. In mid-March, in fact, we learned in a notice issued jointly by the US Department of Transportation and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) that they have been researching it for more than a decade. This notice also references a 300+ page report (‘the report’) on the readiness of V2V for application, online at Vehicle-to-Vehicle Communications: Readiness of V2V Technology for Application. The report begins by distinguishing between V2V communications and the current ‘vehicleresident’ crash-avoidance technologies, like, for example, electronic stability control, and the “host of on-board sensors, cameras, and radar applications that either warn drivers of impending danger so that the driver can take corrective action or intervene on the driver’s behalf.” The report describes V2V as follows: “On-board dedicated short-range radio communication devices … transmit messages about a vehicle’s speed, heading, brake status, and other information to other vehicles and receive the same information from the messages, with range and “line-of-sight” capabilities that exceed current and near-term “vehicle-resident”

systems …[by] nearly twice the range. This longer detection distance and ability to “see” around corners or “through” other vehicles helps V2Vequipped vehicles perceive some threats sooner … and warn their drivers accordingly.” Based on the results of the “Connected Vehicle Safety Pilot Model Deployment” the report contains much ‘good news’. Essentially the system ‘worked’: —the devices installed in the vehicles were able to transmit and receive messages; the security management system, and the particular safety applications worked. The NHSTA has the regulatory authority to mandate the system. Cost estimates based on implementation of the system by the 2020s were detailed down to the per vehicle costs for the equipment and additional fuel due to increased vehicle weight, and up to the billion dollar levels for the overall system. Likewise, the projected safety impact was significant. Based on just two of the many possible safety applications—the Intersection Movement Assist and the Left Turn Assist— annual projections were for the prevention of 25,000 to 592,000 crashes, the saving of 49 to 1,083 lives, the avoidance of 11,000 to 270,000 … injuries, and the reduction of 31,000 to 728,000 property-damageonly crashes once V2V technology is incorporated throughout the entire vehicle fleet. Of course, the report also outlines the many hurdles to implementation, and the many “additional items [that will] need to be in place.” In covering this ‘story’, the main stream media focused in particular on the “sharing the spectrum” problem, V2V communications currently using a radio frequency band currently under consideration by the US Federal Communications Commission for usage by devices under its jurisdiction. The report concludes with a call for further investigation into various aspects of V2V technology and further identified research to move toward deployment. While the challenges are great and the timeline uncertain, the successful outcome of this technological development is inevitable. …by Cedric Hughes, Barrister & Solicitor with regular weekly contributions from Leslie McGuffin, LL.B.

pretty big issues that affect people directly,” he said, suggesting there instead be a coordinated bylaw team that works through Metro on ALR enforcement. Langley Township Mayor Jack Froese said either scenario would amount to downloading from the province, which he said has failed to adequately fund the ALC. Other concerns discussed included the proliferation of organic waste composting operations that aren’t always well operated, properly zoned or approved. “These guys are cropping up everywhere,” Delta Coun. Ian Paton said. “There are two ways to make money farming these days. One is to take illegal soil on your farm and the second is to start composting.” ALC officials said it’s an open question as to whether urban organic waste composting should be done on ALR land. On one hand, farmers could benefit and be more viable if they can also sell the compost, nutrients or energy from organics, they said, but perhaps organics should instead be shipped elsewhere to keep local farmland free for farming. The surge in organic waste flowing onto farmland is the result of Metro’s ban on dumping food waste in the garbage and the accompanying curbside collection programs of local cities. “Composting is wonderful,” Bullock said. “But is it meant to be done in the cheapest possible way on the biggest agricultural piece we have and then it all of a sudden morphs into something way beyond what we all thought? “Our agricultural land is not cheap industrial land. But that’s what too many people in the Lower Mainland are looking at.” Bullock noted more change is the wings on what’s allowed in the ALR. The province is expected to soon roll out regulations that could authorize new commercial or industrial uses in the ALR after conducting consultations on a discussion paper last summer. “We’re expecting more clarity.”

Desirable high-rise urban design in a unique setting that underscores pedestrian friendly convenience and affordability.

EVOLVE stresses livability and sustainability The surrounding area is part of a master-planned community of West Village. Downtown Vancouver is accessible by transit at Surrey Central Skytrain Station, and over 140 stores and retailers are located at nearby Central City Shopping Mall. The area offers a community plaza, city hall, library, shopping, recreational facilities and entertainment to ensure urban ease. Or grab a coffee, walk the dog and enjoy a jog or a stroll any time of day through the many paths and parkland of the pedestrian-friendly neighborhood. “What’s more is that Surrey was recently named one of the 7 most intelligent cities in the world, according to the Intelligent Community Forum in New York,” says Rai. Evolve is revolutionizing the living experience, and turning a buyer’s dream to own a home into a reality without compromising convenience or location. The Sales Centre is located at 13328 104 Avenue in Surrey, BC. The anticipated date of completion is early 2018. Evolve homes go on sale on Saturday, April 11, 2015.

Evolve, which is located a block from city hall, will feature a 316-square-foot studio suite for less than six figures. “This difference in square footage greatly impacts the price of our homes, while also minimizing strata fees,” she says. “Evolve homes start at $93,900, meaning that with a down payment of $5000, your monthly mortgage would be less than a car loan payment; even students can stop renting and afford to buy their own homes.” But Evolve isn’t just getting attention because of its price point. Exclusive to the Evolve Presentation Centre is their Thin-Air Augmented Reality technology that allows home shoppers to essentially walk around inside a virtual version of one of the suites using the free Evolve Condos 3D app on their own phone or tablet. Also, screens inside the presentation centre allow potential buyers to see what a 3D version of their preferred floor plan looks like. The 35-storey tower offers 406 homes in a range of floor plans, including studios, one- and two-bedrooms, two-bedroom and dens, townhome lofts, and penthouses. The homes themselves offer wood grain laminate flooring throughout the entry, bedrooms, and living spaces; 8.6-foot ceilings; large windows and spacious balconies to ensure more natural light.

Ja ck so n

he concept of ‘micro homes’ has been popular for a long time in places like London, New York, and Montréal. Now, WestStone Group is courageously bringing the concept to Metro Vancouver’s tough real estate market, where first-time homebuyers often feel pushed out or overwhelmed. Evolve is a new ‘micro’ high-rise condominium in the heart of Surrey City Centre, quickly proving that sometimes big things come in small packages. The tower is anchored in West Village, an exciting new master planned community where convenience and luxury collide. Kiran Rai, Marketing Director for Macdonald Realty Platinum Project Marketing, says the homes are perfectly priced for a first time buyer looking to get into Metro Vancouver’s real estate market. “We often hear about how unaffordable homes in Metro Vancouver can be, it can be tough for first time buyers to get into the market,” she says. “That’s exactly what makes Evolve unique to other tower homes, because Evolve offers concrete homes for less than the price of wood frame.” Evolve’s “micro” suites are designed for people seeking urban ease in a home offering strategic space. Not only are smaller homes affordable, but they are also considered easier to manage, clean and are incredibly efficient spaces. “Each home has been thoughtfully designed to ensure that there is no wasted space,” says Rai. “While we’ve maximized the square footage of each plan, it’s been done in a way where homes don’t feel cramped. They’re beautiful and functional spaces.”

Night fishing banned ▶ POACHING PATROLS PLANNED FOR FRASER TO PROTECT STURGEON JEFF NAGEL

Night fishing is being banned on the lower Fraser River and some tributaries in an attempt to stop the continued poaching of white sturgeon. The recreational angling regulation change took effect April 1 and applies on non-tidal sections of the Fraser, Pitt and Harrison rivers. Conservation officers will be out in force on the water and a ban on legal fishing at night should make it easier to detect

poachers who typically take sturgeon after dark, Sgt. Todd Hunter said. “That’s when the poaching is going on and people are taking them,” Hunter said. “So we’re going to be actively patrolling.” Sturgeon are a catch-and-release-only fish but a lucrative black market exists for their eggs for caviar. Hunter doubts the night fishing closure will be too much of an inconvenience to other anglers, such as salmon fishermen. He said the regulation, which will be in effect for two years, is essential. “This is a threatened species that has been around since the dinosaurs,” Hunter said of the river’s monstrous armoured

bottom feeders. “These things are very old. They’ll get up to 100 years old or more. So they’re very important to British Columbians and we’re going to do as much as we can on the enforcement side.” White sturgeon are the largest freshwater fish in North America, with the largest believed to reach sizes of more than 800 kilograms and six metres in length. The biggest one caught and released on record was a 3.6-metre, 500-kg sturgeon reeled in by English tourist Michael Snell in 2002 near Chilliwack. Hunter urged anglers who legally catch and release them to do so with the utmost caution when posing with them for photos.

SGS pair qualifies for Westerns Carroll will be coaching two members of the Surrey Gymnastics Society at the Western Canadian Championships in Okotoks, Alberta next month. Treyson Cerrato and Emanuel Gutierrez Sandoval qualified for the Westerns at the Twisters Gymnastics Invitational Competition last weekend, an event which doubled as a Team BC trial event.

Cerrato, 13, also won a silver medal in all around competition. He won gold medals on rings, parallel bars and high bar, and was third on pommel horse and fifth on floor. Carroll was named as one of the Team BC coaches. Three other SGS gymnasts fared well at the Twisters event. Brady Reeleder, 11, won the all around gold medal in the Provincial 2 (10-and-under) category, after winning gold on vault, silver on floor, pommel horse and parallel bars and placing fourth on high bar. Competing in the same category, Reggie Quintana, 10, won gold on floor and placed fifth all around. Timofey Azhogin was third on rings and vault, and fourth on floor and pommel horse in the Provincial 3 (under-13) group. In girls competition, top-five scores were earned by Alanna Jones, 21, in Provincial 5 Open (fifth on vault), Emily Carroll, 17, in Junior Olympic Level 8 (fifth on beam), Maria Bashko, 11, in Junior Olympic Level 7 (third on beam), and Alexa Cannon, 12, also in Junior Olympic Level 7 (fifth on bars).

Cyclone Taylor Cup features local ties 14-394B

▶ SURREY, NORTH DELTA PLAYERS VIE FOR JUNIOR B CHAMPIONSHIP RICK KUPCHUK

Seven local players are the two Pacific Junior Hockey League (PJHL) teams which will compete at the Cyclone Taylor Cup next weekend in Mission. Five are with the host Mission City Outlaws, and two are on the roster of the PJHL champion North Vancouver Wolf Pack. After losing the first two games of the PJHL final, the Wolf Pack won four in a row against Mission City to win their first-ever league championship. The two teams will be joined by the Campbell River Storm of the Vancouver Island Junior Hockey League and the Kimberley Dynamiters of the Kootenay International Junior Hockey League at the Cyclone Taylor Cup tournament, which will decide the BC Hockey Junior B champions. The Cyclone Taylor Cup champion will advance to the Keystone Cup tournament in Cold Lake, Alberta to play for the Western Canadian championship. Ram Brar, 19, of Surrey has played for both PJHL teams which have qualified for the Cyclone Taylor Cup. The forward began the season in North Vancouver, but joined the Outlaws in mid-January and scored two goals and 13 points over the final dozen games of the season. Brar added five goals and 16 points in 15 postseason games. Four 18-year-olds from the Surrey Minor Hockey Association are on the Outlaws roster. Forward Ryan Sharma netted five goals and totaled nine points in the postseason, while defenceman Erick Miller suited up for nine games as a rookie on the Outlaws defense.

On March 27, 2015 at 7:30am The Habs lost their biggest fan as Michael passed on to eternal life, having succumbed to ALS. Michael fought his illness with grace and humanity, courage and dignity. Our hearts are heavy with the loss of a wonderful husband and father. We pray for him and that the cure for this wretched disease will be close at hand soon. Michael was predeceased by his parents, Andy & Ruth (nee Guichon) and brother Maurice. He will be forever loved and missed by his wife of 35 years Connie and children, Erin and Jordan, of whom he was so proud - they were his everything. Also missing him immensely is his brother Phillip (Lynn) of Revelstoke, sister Loretta (Rene) of Winnipeg, sister Andrea of Vancouver, brothers in-law Roderick and Colin, sister in-law Rhonda (Garry) of Newfoundland, along with many many relatives and dear friends. A Roman Catholic funeral service will be held Mon, April 6, 2015 at St. Bernadette Parish, 6543 - 132nd Ave, Surrey, BC at 10:30 a.m. Viewing to take place prior to the commencement of service. In lieu of flowers, a donation to the ALS Society, or a charity of choice is appreciated.
