Surrey shooting victim was nephew of Newton MLA ▼ HARRY BAINS UNCLE TO 22-YEAR-OLD MAN GUNNED DOWN ON SUNDAY

SHEILA REYNOLDS

The man killed in a shooting early Sunday morning in Surrey is the nephew of a local politician. The Leader has confirmed the 22-year-old victim, Arun Paul Singh Bains, is the nephew of Surrey-Newton NDP MLA Harry Bains. A spokesperson from the B.C. NDP said Harry Bains would be spending time with family Monday and would not be available for comment. Arun Bains was rushed to hospital shortly before 3 a.m. April 19 after being shot near 126 Street and 88 Avenue. He succumbed to his injuries shortly after. A dark-coloured, fourdoor Mazda 3 riddled with bullet holes – believed to be the vehicle Bains was in – remained at the shooting scene Sunday. The deadly shooting was another in a string of about two dozen gun incidents in Surrey and North Delta in the past month and a half. Surrey-Newton This is the first one to claim a life and is precisely what MLA Harry police feared would happen. Bains Last week, Surrey RCMP and Delta Police announced they believed the shooting spree stemmed from a drug turf war between rival groups of Somalian and South Asians. They even took the step of releasing names and photos of men believed to be involved in hopes someone would be able to shed light on their activities. Though the violence has resulted in several people being injured, the victims have not been cooperative with investigators, often mocking them and telling them they don’t need to get involved.

Lively crowd greets Indian prime minister ▼ THOUSANDS GATHER AT HINDU TEMPLE TO CELEBRATE CANADA-INDIA TIES BLACK PRESS

Music, singing and plenty of smiles greeted Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi as he arrived at a Hindu temple in Surrey on Thursday. Accompanied by Prime Minister Stephen Harper, Modi was received by thousands of jubilant people at the Lakshmi Narayan Mandir on 140 Street at 84 Avenue. The leaders’ visit aimed to strengthen ties between the two countries. “I can’t think of a greater place to talk about relations between Canada and India,” Harper said as he addressed the crowd of about 3,500 people. Modi’s two-day visit to Canada, which included stops in Ottawa, Toronto and Vancouver, was Modi’s first visit here since taking office as head of the world’s largest democracy. His Bharatiya Janata Party won an absolute majority in elections last year. Modi’s trip here is the first bilateral visit by an Indian prime minister to Canada since 1973. The last Indian prime minister to visit was Indira Gandhi and she did not come to Western Canada. Not everyone welcomed Modi’s presence, however. A group of about 200 protesters waving banners and placards also gathered outside the temple during Modi’s visit. Critics have drawn attention to the deadly riots that took place in Gujarat, India more than a decade ago while Modi was a senior minister there.

Several hundred people were killed as a result of rioting and police counter-activity. The violence was due to religious tensions, with Hindus attacking Muslims and Sikhs. In 2012, Modi was cleared of complicity by a special investigation team appointed by the Supreme Court of India. This week, Canada and India signed several memoranda of understanding in a range of areas, including civil aviation, rail regulation, education and skills development, space cooperation, and projects focused on maternal, newborn and child health. Modi also announced that India will begin issuing visas upon arrival, which will make it easier for Canadians to travel to India. “With its expanding population and impressive economic growth, India represents tremendous opportunities for Canadian companies,” Harper said. “But we have only begun to scratch the surface of our true commercial potential.

wake of deadly shooting ▶ ‘DO THE RIGHT AND BRAVE THING,’ POLICE URGE

SHEILA REYNOLDS

Police have a plan to address the recent gun violence in Surrey and Delta streets, and say although the community should be concerned, residents need not live in fear. Part of that plan, announced at a press conference Monday, was to establish a special tip line, as well as speak with suspects believed to be involved in the violence, along with their family, friends and acquaintances. Officials from local and regional police forces, along with Surrey Mayor Linda Hepner, held a press conference at RCMP headquarters in Surrey Monday, on the heels of the fatal shooting of 22-year-old Arun Bains on Sunday morning. The young man’s death is believed to be linked to a series of brazen street shootings involving rival drug dealers that has plagued Surrey and Delta in recent weeks. RCMP Assistant Commissioner Dan Malo said the situation is a complex one, “not solved

Dale Carr. He urged anyone with information to come forward “before another young person is killed.” A new 24-hour tip line has been established: 604-915-6566.

VIEWPOINT

The Surrey-Nor th Delta Leader Wednesday April 22 2015

The elderly have earned a better life B.C.’s Seniors Advocate Isobel Mackenzie has issued a report on seniors in residential care which has gained a great deal of attention. The attention is long overdue. Mackenzie points out that there are more seniors in residential care than need to be. She suggests that many could actually be in assisted living, which is less labour-intensive and less costly, or living in their homes with more assistance from community programs. Not only would this be a better way of living for these individuals, as they would have considerably more independence, it would save the B.C. government a pot of money. Mackenzie estimates that as many as 15 per cent of the 25,000 people in residential care could be in less-intensive

care facilities. Rectifying this could save the province millions of dollars each year. Mackenzie, who did a survey of the elderly in residential care and the 29,000 home care clients, also found that far too many seniors are being given drugs to control their behaviour. One-third of those in residential care are being given anti-psychotic drugs, even though the number actually needing those drugs is far smaller. Only four per cent have been diagnosed with a psychiatric disorder. Meanwhile, about twice as many seniors as actually need them are receiving anti-depressants. It’s hard not to draw the conclusion that government officials and those running

RAESIDE

care facilities are drugging residents indiscriminately, likely to control behaviour. This is simply not right. They should only be given prescription medicine they really need. Health Minister Terry Lake acknowledges that too many seniors in care are receiving anti-psychotic and anti-depressant drugs and said there is training underway to ensure that staff members know what drugs are appropriate for people living in residential care. Nonetheless, Mackenzie has highlighted two important issues which will be of benefit to both seniors and taxpayers if there is proper follow-through. Seniors deserve proper health services and they must also be treated with dignity.

Land sales leave a lingering odour BC VIEWS ▼ Tom Fletcher

The B.C. Liberal government’s sale of Crown properties to help balance its election budget was the dominant story in the legislature last week, as the NDP revealed evidence of a “fire sale” that may have left millions on the table. They started with Burke Mountain, the biggest single deal involving 14 view properties in Coquitlam. The buyer was a prominent developer whose array of companies happened to donate nearly $1 million to the B.C. Liberal Party since 2000. The $85-million price tag was similar to the B.C. Assessment Authority value on these forested properties, but an outside appraisal concluded they could have fetched an additional $43 million if they had spent more time on the hot Lower Mainland real estate market. (This sale made headlines last fall for the province’s $8 million buyout of the local First Nation’s undefined territorial claim, when it was revealed the chief of the tiny Kwikwitlem First Nation pocketed an $800,000 commission).

The government’s defence of the sale went from wobbly to weak. Citizens’ Services Minister Amrik Virk was caught flat-footed and tried to get by on platitudes rather than retreat and find some answers. Premier Christy Clark weighed in, arguing that the budget would have balanced without the property sale, and that some sales closed too late to help the election-year budget. Finance Minister Mike de Jong stressed that all these asset sales were detailed in three successive budgets. They downplayed the notion of land sales being rushed. Then the NDP produced a string of emails sent between senior officials responsible for selling two big properties across the street from the legislature. “To be part of the sale and development of over eight acres of Victoria’s beautiful inner harbour area is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. An opportunity that normally would warrant years of planning and preparation,” wrote one citizens’ services bureaucrat. “Unfortunately we don’t

have unlimited time – our goal is to have For Sale signs up by Oct. 31 with sales proceeds in the bank by March 31, 2013.” Then came a disclosure about a property in Surrey that had been bought as a potential hospital site. Once the existing hospital was expanded, that property was declared surplus. Indeed, de Jong featured this property to promote the government’s plan to stimulate local economies with private sector investment on unused land. The Surrey deal closed for $20.5 million on March 21, 2014, just days before the end of the fiscal year. NDP leader John Horgan pointed to an outside appraisal of $23.5 million, and an assessment for tax purposes of $27.2 million. The appraiser also recommended that the “highest and best use” for the Surrey land was to hold it until had been rezoned for commercial, retail or office development.

De Jong cited another big health property in Vancouver that sold for more than its appraised and assessed value. It’s only the actual market that determines worth, he insisted. But it’s now clear that these and perhaps other sales were done with arbitrary deadlines that had everything to do with the B.C. Liberals’ need to balance the books. When elections are a battle of sound bites, perception matters more than reality. It’s also worth recalling that the budget deficits prior to the 2013 election were largely a result of the B.C. government’s costly undoing of the Harmonized Sales Tax, rather than the harsh forces of international finance. Surplus asset sales have a long tradition in B.C., where the government owns more than 90 per cent of all land. But after this round, full disclosure will be demanded.

TransLink is not wasteful: Auditors ▼ HAS TRACK RECORD OF FINDING COST EFFICIENCIES

Letter writer L. Mackintosh (“Stop wasting taxpayer money”) has justifiable concerns about specific instances of wasted taxpayer money at TransLink, but professional auditors with the writer’s requested “definite accountability” have a different view. “They’ve tightened operations over the past few years. I don’t think they’re wasteful,” said independent commissioner Robert

in the Mayors’ Plan. As for low-income families and seniors mentioned in the letter, they will pay less than 10 cents a day per person and disproportionately benefit from the transportation improvements. That’s why the Coalition of Seniors’ Organizations, Disability Alliance BC and the B.C. Federation of Labour are among the 140 groups supporting a “yes” vote. Peter Ladner Better Transit and Transportation Coalition www.bettertransit.org

Oh wait, I know why, because she just spent $200,000 of taxpayers’ money on promoting a “yes” vote for the upcoming transit plebiscite – money that could have been spent hiring at least two

more RCMP officers. Mayor Hepner, if you’ve “had enough of this,” then perhaps you should stop talking about it and start doing something about it.

Re: “I want to see it stopped. I’ve had enough of this,” The Leader, April 15. The statement made by Surrey Mayor Linda Hepner regarding the recent gun violence in Surrey is laughable. I don’t mean that gun violence is a joke, but rather, the mayor’s comments are. For whatever reason she had, telling the public that the investigation into the recent shooting in our city is top priority is a good message, but it is nothing more than sensationalism. Let’s face it, I’m sure the RCMP take shootings as seriously as any other major crime. I’m sure they know what consequences result in gun violence, and I’m also sure they don’t need to be told by a politician how to deal with the situation. If I was the chief of the Surrey RCMP detachment my comment to her would be this: “We will investigate this as a top priority but it would be helpful if we had more officers to allocate to the task at hand.” Where are the additional officers the mayor had promised when she was elected? She’s had time to raise taxes to pay for these officers, so where are they?

Irwin after his 2013 review of TransLink’s entire operation. In Nov. 2014, Moody’s Investors Service gave TransLink an Aa2 rating because of “solid governance and management practices” and a “track record of finding cost efficiencies.” Will the 0.5-per-cent tax be increased later? That’s entirely up to the province, not TransLink. No one except the “no” campaigners have expressed any intention of increasing this tax. The ballot promises an annual, public accounting of the money raised to ensure it’s spent only on the transportation improvements

A chemical drug lab was discovered following a fire at a home in Surrey on Friday. Surrey RCMP were called after the Surrey Fire Department extinguished the blaze at about 2:30 p.m. April 17. The E-Division Clandestine Lab team attended the residence, confirmed it was the site of a drub lab and executed a search warrant. The investigation is ongoing.

Fatal crash in Delta The driver of a pick-up truck died after a crash in Delta Friday afternoon. The single-vehicle accident involving a green Chevrolet truck took place at Deltaport Way and Arthur Drive at

about 6 p.m. The truck hit a traffic light pole head on, tearing the vehicle in two.

Death investigated Police are asking for the public’s assistance following a suspicious death in Surrey early Saturday (April 18). Surrey RCMP responded to a call in the 13800-block of Hansen Rd. and learned a 57- year-old male had been found deceased by roommates. One male was arrested and interviewed by IHIT (Integrated Homicide Investigation Team), then released without charge pending further investigation. “It is our belief the victim and suspect knew each,” said Sgt. Stephanie Ashton of IHIT.

▶ SURREY TO ADDRESS ISSUE APRIL 23 from page 1

Depending on the number of courses, the new fees could amount to several hundred, if not thousands, of dollars for adult students. The provincial government announced in December that as of May 1, it will no longer provide funding to school districts to cover courses for adults who already have their high school diploma – from anywhere in the world. The Ministry of Education website lists 34 classes (including English 12, Math 12 and Chemistry 12) that will no longer be subsidized. In the Surrey School District, there are about 4,000 full- and parttime adult education students – about a third of whom will be affected by the funding changes. The courses will remain tuition-free for those working toward their Grade 12 graduation for the first time. For Rahimyar, though she’s been able to take courses for free thus far, now that she’s at the Grade 11 level, she’ll be required to pay. And that’s money she simply

doesn’t have. “I have no idea,” she says when asked what she’ll do when the fees kick in. “Sometimes I don’t want to think about it.” Aaron Douglas, a teacher at Invergarry, sympathizes with his students. The school’s population, he explains, is not simply those who dropped out or didn’t try in high school, but includes people who may have suffered health issues or had learning disabilities and are working to improve their marks. But he finds the funding cuts especially unfair for immigrants like Rahimyar, who graduated abroad. “I think it’s completely unjust to charge someone who graduated in Kenya or a third-world country,” Douglas says. “Even if they have graduated, their diploma isn’t recognized by the post-secondary institutions here. You’re basically trapping them and saying ‘well, if you can afford it, great, if you can’t, too bad.’” In Delta and Vancouver, fees for the adult education courses will be $550 each.

The Surrey Board of Education has not yet set an amount but is scheduled to address the matter at the April 23 public board meeting. In making the funding announcement, Education Minister Peter Fassbender emphasized that as long as it’s an adult student’s first time finishing high school, nothing will change. It’s only already-graduated adults who’ll have to pay up. “High school is free, but further upgrading is not,” Fassbender said. “I think it is

reasonable to expect adults who’ve already graduated to contribute to these costs.” Rahimyar, however, still can’t understand why the government would put up barriers to her improving her circumstances. If she studies, she says, she can get off income assistance and better contribute to society. And that, she says, would also help make the future brighter for her daughters. “If I can’t get an education, which is everybody’s right, what is the hope for the next generation?”

Lawsuits mount over city hall

â&#x2013;ś PCL CONSTRUCTORS ALLEGES IT COST $361,720 TO MAKE SURE UNFINISHED BUILDING READY FOR MAYORâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S CHARITY GALA KEVIN DIAKIW

The City of Surrey has launched a counter-claim in response to lawsuits filed over the construction of Surrey City Hall in Whalley â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a project that went beyond both deadline and over budget. For more than a year, lawsuits have been mounting against the City of Surrey and general contractor PCL Constructors Westcoast Inc. (PCL). The 180,000-sq.-ft. city hall was to be complete by September 2013, but ran late by five months. It was then that liens on the property began to build.

They were swiftly followed by lawsuits from the trades working on the project. In December 2014, PCL filed a Notice of Civil Claim in Supreme Court claiming it is owed $8.7 million above the $125 million the company has already been paid. (The city has long maintained it was a $97 million project). Of the money it says itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s owed, PCL claims it cost $361,720 to make the unfinished city hall ready for the October, 2013 Mayorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Charity Gala event. In this monthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s response to the PCL claim, the city denies nearly all of the assertions made. In fact, none of the claims on either side have been proven in court. PCL is one in a long list of companies suing over the construction of city hall.

Zoran Vukelic, owner of Wolf Masonry Ltd., told The Leader last January the project was a â&#x20AC;&#x153;nightmare for every party involved.â&#x20AC;? Ron Fettback, vice-president of operations for WesternÂ Pacific Enterprises (WPE), said in January his company, and others, have been treated poorly by the city. Fettback says he was made responsible for retrofitting the unfinished city hall so it could be used for the mayorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s annual fundraising ball which took place Oct. 18, 2013. He said the work cost him $90,000. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s completely unacceptable to do that,â&#x20AC;? Fettback said at the time. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re having a dispute, letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s resolve it in a fair and reasonable manner.â&#x20AC;? The issue is expected to wind its way through the courts for some time.

Teens disciplined over photos

SHEILA REYNOLDS

A dozen students at Lord Tweedsmuir Secondary in Surrey have been disciplined for allegedly circulating inappropriate photos of other students at the school. According to Doug Strachan, communications manager for the

Surrey School District, a student reported to school officials that some senior students had suggestive photos of girls at Lord Tweedsmuir. â&#x20AC;&#x153;School and district officials began an investigation and police have been notified,â&#x20AC;? said Strachan, adding

the discipline involved both boys and girls in Grades 11 and 12. He couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t say whether the students were suspended or expelled, citing privacy concerns. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s certainly unfortunate for the students involved,â&#x20AC;? Strachan said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;but also that a

Tuscan Developments’ Villa del Sol Ponente renovation was a year-long project that changed the exterior facade and took advantage of the home’s stunning Crescent Beach location. Photo supplied by Tuscan Developments

A taste of Italy with Tuscan Developments By Kerry Vital

There’s a touch of Italian luxury in Crescent Beach, thanks to Tuscan Developments and its president, Mark Peers. Their recent renovation takes advantage of a fantastic location to create a home that’s perfect for a family, and unrecognizable from the original home. Peers purchased the existing house, built in 1975, because he saw it as a “wonderful opportunity” to create something beautiful. “The home had great bones,” he says. “Everything was in excellent shape. This saved us hundreds of thousands of dollars by using the existing house.” The $2-million renovation, which changed both the layout and the exterior facade, took a year from beginning to end, and later sold for over $5 million after the house was completed. Peers calls the home Villa del Sol Ponente, which means House of the Sinking Sun in Italian. It’s an appropriate name. “From the kitchen you look through French doors over the infinity pool and to the ocean,” he says. Sunsets are never in the short supply through the huge windows, and the homeowners

are able to take advantage of unrestricted 180-degree views of the Pacific ocean to the west and the surrounding forest to the east. The original home didn’t take advantage of these surroundings. “It was designed for an urban lot that was built looking inward instead of outward,” says Peers. “We focused on the ocean and brought it into the home.” Peers and his team removed all of the interior walls from the main floor of the home, and created a seamless open floor plan. “We put in major steel beams to support the second floor after we removed the walls from the main floor,” he says. “This house had too many bedrooms, so we removed the bedroom above the living room and created 20-foot ceilings. It enabled us to place large windows above the new French doors.” Light now pours into the home through those large windows, and the doors open onto the pool and garden area. “I love the layout; it’s just to die for,” says Peers. “From the kitchen, the living room is on the left and a kids’ playroom is on the right with a fireplace and doors that open onto the pool. It means the family can all be together without being on top of each other.” The original family room is now called the Arizona Room, after Peers removed the exterior wall and replaced it with an Eclipse Moving Wall that can open up completely to the outside. It holds an indoor fire pit that can be used for barbecues year-

round, and has direct access to the pool and hot tub. The kitchen, now moved to the centre of the home, is seriously spectacular, with granite flooring and marble countertops. Peers and his team also added a spice kitchen off the main kitchen. “The spice kitchen is where the action happens!” says Peers. There is also a wine cellar and huge pantry that blends seamlessly with style of the elegant kitchen. The main floor also features a stunning powder room, which was integral to the renovation. “The powder room is the most important room in the house,” Peers says. “When people come over, they form an opinion of you and your home from looking at the powder room. This one … is really beautiful.” Another important room is the laundry room, which Peers notes is integral to the successful running of the house when you have a family. “You spend half your life in there!” he says. Now, the no-longer-utilitarian laundry room has plenty of space for sorting, folding and ironing, as well as tons of storage. The beauty continues upstairs. With the removal of some of the floors upstairs to create the 20-foot ceilings in the living area, Peers was able to create a floating walkway that adds to the incredible sense of space in the home.

“ from page.1 Every bedroom now has ocean views, a walk-in closet and an ensuite bathroom. The master bathroom in particular is gorgeous. “The old bathroom was horrid,” Peers says. “It was a 1976 shagadelic pink bathroom with no windows.” Now, the master bath has a huge window beside the soaker tub that overlooks the ocean, dual vanities and a large luxurious shower. The low-ceilinged, dark basement below the living room has become a home theatre with eight-foot ceilings after Peers raised the floor above. There is also a Tuscan-style bar and French doors that lead to the garden. Outside, the pool required a foundation that would cradle the pool six feet in the air. Peers then built the pool around it to create the infinity style. Villa del Sol Ponente is now a treasured family home, perfect for both relaxing and entertaining. “The reason you want to renovate is because you want your home to be the place you want to come home to,” Peers says. “You want it to embrace your lifestyle and reflect you. You want it to be the space where you feel most comfortable and happy.” When it comes to choosing a renovator for your home, Peers recommends that the homeowner speak to past clients. “We always ask our clients if we can show the home and have an open house,” he says. “That way future customers can talk to the owners and ask questions. Our modus operandi is to introduce future customers to old customers.” He also notes that homeowners should never rush into a renovation. “The more time you spend planning and organizing, the less it will cost you and the happier you will be,” Peers says. A renovation, no matter how large, is a major change to your home and your life, and trusting the person doing the renovation is an integral part of keeping your sanity at the end of the day. Peers and his team want to ensure that the process is as painless as possible. “All of our customers become friends of mine,” he says. “We love them, and we love what we do.”outdoor dining terrace and covered lounge.

The level above is a private haven with three bedrooms. The master bedroom has its own dressing room and luxurious ensuite. The top level has another bedroom, as well as a sitting room, library, play room and laundry room. Teragon also expanded the basement of the home, from half crawl space and half basement to a basement with 10-foot ceilings throughout. That basement now holds a games room, home theatre, wine cellar and gym, making the home an entertainer’s paradise. The home has plenty of heritage-style touches, such as walnut panelling and flooring laid in a herringbone pattern. The bronzed railing on the sweeping staircase was inspired by an art noveau railing from Brussels, Belgium, and was hand-forged. Custom millwork, five fireplaces, custom stained glass and natural stone elements are just a few of the other luxurious aspects of The Mayfair. Van Linge himself is a journeyman carpenter, noting that he enjoys bringing those old-fashioned elements to his work. “Something that sets us apart is our eye for detail,” he says. “You can’t execute these kinds of ideas without being able to see the (small) details.”

Photos supplied by Tuscan Developments

The home’s main floor now has an open-plan layout and elegant kitchen (above left and top). Peers and his team also built a Tuscan-style bar in the basement (above).

The renovations were completed last year and the owner has since sold the home, but Van Linge and his team are still involved with the new owners, assisting them with the operations of the house. “We’re still working with them to maintain and service the exterior paint and the HVAC system, for example,” says Van Linge.

Experts walk the talk on safe digging Even the experts call before they dig When a group of FortisBC gas operations managers and supervisors volunteered to plant trees and shrubs at Kelowna’s Rotary Marsh, they made sure to call BC One Call before they put any shovels in the ground. Chris Hyland, FortisBC regional manager, Interior south, said the crew knew to call BC One Call a few days before doing the work to ensure they had enough time to receive and review information about underground utilities in the area. “When you work around FortisBC utility lines regularly, it becomes second nature to call before you dig,” said Hyland, who is also president of BC One Call. “But getting the information is just the first step. It’s just as important to make sure you understand that information and then follow safe digging practices, like start with hand digging when you know you’re working near underground utilities.” The FortisBC employees received the location information of any underground utilities in the area – including natural gas and electricity lines– and clearly marked them before planting in the marsh. Only then did they start digging holes to plant ponderosa pine, dogwood, sumac, choke cherry, willow and snowberry, helping to restore the downtown wetland to its natural state.

National Safe Digging Month

caused by third parties such as construction crews, contractors and homeowners. The vast majority of those incidents could be prevented by calling BC One Call and following safe digging procedures. If you do happen to damage a natural gas line, you could be on the hook for costly repairs. “Once you have the information about underground utilities, take time to look at the map and if you have some questions we’re here to help,” said Ian Turnbull, damage prevention and emergency services manager at FortisBC.

Call before you dig Whether you’re installing a fence or doing landscaping, always call or click BC One Call before you dig and they’ll notify the member utility companies, including FortisBC. Then, the utilities will provide you with line location information for free. t Call or click: BC One Call at 1-800-474-6886, cellular *6886 or click bconecall.ca. t Review: Within two days, you will receive location information. Review it before you begin digging. t Clarify: If you’re still not sure where to dig, or don’t understand the information, ask FortisBC for help at 1-888-822-6555.

April is Safe Digging Month, a time to help educate and increase awareness about knowing what’s below ground before you start digging. FortisBC historically experiences a spike in the number of calls to repair damage to underground utility lines in the springtime with the start of construction season and homeowners starting their landscaping projects.

Big need for Big Sisters ▶ LITTLE SISTER BRITNEY FINDS HER ‘GREATEST FRIEND’ IN HER MENTOR BLACK PRESS

Growing up in a low-income household in Surrey in the middle of four siblings, 11-yearold Britney wanted a Big Sister mentor so she’d have “someone to trust, someone who could pick me up and do fun things with me. “And be my greatest friend,” Britney says

quietly, hugging Mandy Thoohan. Britney and Mandy found each other through Big Sisters, an organization that matches adult women with girls aged seven to 17. Thoohan, 23, is currently putting herself through university to become a teacher. “I didn’t receive the kind of support I needed as a young girl,” she explains. “And after I heard about Big Sisters through a classmate, I wanted to prevent another girl from feeling that way too.”

Eleven-year-old Britney (right) and her ‘Big Sister’ Mandy Thoohan. SUBMITTED When asked how she manages her job, a full course load, and weekly visits with Britney, she laughs and explains that she doesn’t think of it as “volunteering,” and that her time with Britney is exactly what she needs to “decompress and have fun.” At the beginning of their match one year ago, the pair decided one of their goals would be to stay active. They enjoy swimming, watching puppy training classes at the local pet store and trying different kinds of sushi rolls together. Thoohan says Britney’s mom is always happy to hear that Britney has tried something new with Thoohan and that she is opening up to someone. Thoohan says that although her main goal has been to help Britney gain confidence, her little sister has actually inspired her to face some of her own fears, such as sliding down a waterslide for the first time. “I can’t swim!” she laughs. “It was extremely scary, but I’m happy Britney pushed me to try it.”

When asked how Britney thinks her life might be different without Thoohan, she looks down and shyly says “I’d probably be on the couch watching TV.” The Big Sister program has had such a positive impact on Britney that she now wants to be a Big Sister as soon as she turns 19. She also wants to be a teacher when she grows up, just like Thoohan. Big Sisters of B.C. Lower Mainland has an ongoing need for Big Sister volunteers in Surrey. There are currently 29 girls waiting to be matched. As Big Sisters looks for volunteers who live nearby and have the same interests, some girls in Surrey are currently waiting up to a year to be matched. To become a Big Sister, you must be at least 19 and be able to commit two hours each week to a girl ages seven to 17 for one year.

Beer sales help autism research

▶ CENTRAL CITY BREWERS RAISES FUNDS FOR HYPERBARIC OXYGEN THERAPY STUDY AT SFU BLACK PRESS

A Surrey-based brewery is once again donating a portion of its beer sales to autism research. In conjunction with Autism Awareness Month in April, Central City Brewers & Distillers has launched its annual IPA for Autism, supporting Simon Fraser University’s Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) and Magnetoencephalography (MEG) research for children with autism. Central City will donate $2 from every six pack of 355 ml cans and 25 centres from every 473 ml can of specially marked Red Racer IPAs. In addition, 25 cents from every pint of IPA sold at participating B.C. restaurants and pubs will be donated. The fundraising initiative hits home for Darryll Frost, president and founder of Central City, as his five-year-old son Callum was diagnosed with Pervasive Development Disorder, a type of autism, two years ago. Frost and his wife have seen great improvement in Callum’s development by combining a special diet with the hyperbaric oxygen therapy. “The change in my son was night and day,” says Frost. “He was completely non-verbal and low functioning, throwing tantrums, beating and hurting himself, displaying aggressive behaviour

Stress talk BLACK PRESS

A critically acclaimed author and therapist will speak next month at a forum aimed to help parents reduce anxiety in their children. Michele Kamboli, author of Generation Stressed, will present a lecture May 20 at 7 p.m. at Clayton Heights Secondary (7003 188 St.). The event is sponsored by the Fraser-South chapter of the Learning Disabilities Association. Tickets to the lecture are $20, or $35 for couples. Visit www.eventbrite.ca

and non-communicative. But with treatment, he is now a happy five-year-old, who is able to communicate, laugh, perform everyday things like dressing and feeding himself and is even going to kindergarten with the help of an aid.” Convinced of HBOT’s positive effects, the Frosts teamed up with SFU to facilitate research on how the therapy works for children with autism. The autism HBOTMEG study at SFU is the first in Canada that specifically studies the effectiveness of using hyperbaric oxygen therapy on children with autism. Included in the research is the use of MEG neuroimaging to evaluate whether HBOT can positively impact brain activity underlying cognition and behaviour in children with autism. The team of SFU researchers includes Dr.

Central City Brewers and Distiller’s Red Racer IPA for Autism. SUBMITTED

Ryan D’Arcy, one of the world’s foremost neuroscientists, and Sherri Ferguson, Director of SFU’s Environmental Medicine and Physiology Unit (EMPU), home to Canada’s only civilian

research hyper/hypobaric chamber. This year, SFU has recruited Dr. Sam Doesburg as the holder of the Callum Frost Professorship in Translational Research in Autism. Doesburg will implement a translational research program in autism that will leverage recent breakthroughs in network neuroimaging and computational neuroscience to make meaningful improvements in the lives of people with autism and other neurological and neuropsychiatric disorders. Autism now affects one in 68 children. Since 2012, Central City has raised $175,000 for autism research. The company also plans to organize an autism fundraising auction later this year.

Untreated hearing loss tied to lower earning potential Maximizing oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ability to hear well should be part of any smart career strategy. Individual performance in an organization is found to be directly related to listening ability or perceived listening effectiveness. In fact, listening is one of the top skills employers seek in entry-level employees and in those being promoted. People who both hear and listen well are also more likely to establish positive working relationships with bosses, clients, and colleagues. An alarming new study by the Better Hearing Institute (BHI) reveals a direct correlation between unaddressed hearing loss and earnings. 7KH QDWLRQDO VXUYH\ HQWLWOHG Âł7KH HIÂżFDF\ RI hearing aids in achieving compensation equity in the workplace,â&#x20AC;? clearly demonstrates that KHDULQJ ORVV KDV D VLJQLÂżFDQW LPSDFW RQ SHRSOHÂśV ability to earn a livelihood. The study underscores how critically important it is for workers to treat hearing loss early in order to maximize their job performance and earning potential. According to Sergei Kochkin, PhD, author of the study: â&#x20AC;&#x153;The real tragedy in delaying hearing loss treatment is that when left unaddressed, hearing loss negatively affects individuals and their families for the rest of their lives in the form of lost wages, lost promotions, lost opportunities, lost retirement income, and unrealized dreams. But when people with even mild hearing loss use hearing aids, they improve their job performance, increase their earning potential, enhance their communication skills, improve their professional land interpersonal relationships, stave off depression, and improve their quality of life.â&#x20AC;?

Chiefs swept by Blue Jays at Mackie

â&#x2013;ś PBL RIVALS PLAY TWICE IN NORTH DELTA ON SATURDAY RICK KUPCHUK

The North Delta Blue Jays are off to a perfect start to their B.C. Premier Baseball League season, sweeping a double header at the expense of their closest rivals. The Jays defeated the Whalley Chiefs 2-0 and 11-7 Saturday at Mackie Park in North Delta, the first two games of the season for the home side. The Chiefs are struggling at the start of their schedule, with just one win in seven games. Saturdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s double header began with pitching from both teams keeping offense to a minimum. The Blue Jays received an outstanding effort from starting pitcher Daniel Gosselin. The left-hander allowed one hit and a pair of walks in five innings, while striking out eight Chiefs batters. Reliever Clint Taylor was effective over the final two innings, allowing just a two-out single. Thomas Espig of the Chiefs threw five and two-thirds innings, but allowing two runs on four hits and four walks. He had five strikeouts but took the loss. William Quito of the Blue Jays singled and scored on a fielderâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s

choice in the first inning. Noah Or added an insurance run in the sixth, drawing a walk, stealing second then scoring on Braedon Millerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s single. While the pitchers dominated the first game, batters on both teams improved their stats in game two. The Chiefs had plenty of offense early in the game, building a 5-0 lead after they batted in the second inning. But in the bottom half of the frame, the Blue Jays crossed the plate seven times to take the lead. The Chiefs tied the score 7-7 with two runs in the fourth inning, but North Delta responded with two in their half of the fourth, and three more over the next two innings. Lichel Kirakawa-Kao was three-for-four at the plate for Whalley with three runs scored and two runs batted in (RBI). Espig had a single and a double in three at-bats, driving in two runs and scoring one. For North Delta, eight batters managed at least a hit, paced by Trevor Gentles, Logan Newman and Dylan Dahl with two each. Gentles drove in three runs, with Dahl and Quito earning two RBIs each. The Chiefs and Blue Jays will both be in the provincial capital next weekend, playing twice each against the Victoria Eagles and Victoria Mariners.
