Shooting spree continues with four more injured in Surrey
City ‘safe, but desperate for solution’ Kevin Diakiw Black Press
Shootings linked to a drug-trade turf war are edging towards Surrey’s south end. Police responded to reports of gunfire in the Sullivan area just before 10 p.m. Friday, and just after 10 p.m. Saturday in Cloverdale. Of the two incidents – which resulted in four men suffering non-life-threatening injuries – police have attributed one to gun
violence that has plagued the communities of Surrey and Delta since March. Surrey RCMP say while they believe Friday’s incident, at a home in the 5700-block of 152 Street, was targeted, it is not believed linked to the spree. Saturday’s incident, however, is thought to be connected. It occurred in the 18600-block of Highway 10, and brings to 18 the number of shootings in Surrey that are being blamed
on a feud between two groups over a dial-adope operation. (There have been more than 30 shootings since the spree began, however police say not all – including one at a home in South Surrey on May 30 – are linked to the drug turf war). Previous incidents have occurred further north in Surrey, including in the Newton and Strawberry Hill neighbourhoods. One, on April 19, killed Arun Paul Singh Bains,
the nephew of Surrey-Newton NDP MLA Harry Bains. Officers responding to Saturday’s shooting did not locate anyone at the scene, but found evidence shots had been fired and were later advised by officials at a local hospital that two men had arrived with bullet wounds. The hospital was locked down as a safety precaution. i see page 8

Butterflies freed at Centennial Park
A ‘perfect’ day for release into the wild Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter
Four-year-old Malakai Ostrosser couldn’t help but be all-aflutter Friday morning. “It tickles,” the youngster gushes, with just a hint of anxiety, over the sensation created by the delicate, brightly coloured painted lady butterflies on his neck. “Get it off, get it off.” Malakai was among enthusiasts to turn out to
the Eva Bene Butterfly Garden for the release by White Rock & Surrey Naturalist volunteers Laurence Assoignon and Frances de Montreuil. The blustery morning created the “perfect” temperature for the occasion, Assoignon said. “If it’s cool, they won’t fly too far.” She said she raised the four dozen – which included red admirals – from eggs collected in the garden, located in Centennial Park.
It is her second year of raising the insects, and Assoignon said she is hopeful an anise swallowtail that is currently in the caterpillar stage survives for the next release. De Montreuil noted that theft of the garden’s plants – reported in 2013 – continues to be a problem. The crime endangers the butterflies and other species that call the well-cared-for green space home.

White Rock residents will have a chance to share input about the future of single-family solid-waste pickup, when the city hosts a community forum later this month. The June 30 meeting at the White Rock Community Centre will “include overviews of the city’s current practices and offer an opportunity to provide input on several options” for the future of garbage, recycling and organics collection, according to a post on the city’s website. Earlier this year, the city issued a request for proposals on contracting out single-family home collection, in an effort to review costs and services. Council also voted to switch to a solid-waste-user-fee method for charging single-family residences, rather than a general tax levy, which is based on property value. In January, the city announced it would “privatize” solid-waste pickup for multi-family units and businesses, a decision – made incamera in December – that was met with a backlash. After a protest that drew hundreds of angry residents to the lawns of city hall in March, council voted to move ahead with plans to scrap public garbage pickup for multifamily residents, effective July 1. – Melissa Smalley

Bob Berger spoke to council at Monday’s meeting, following an earlymorning crash June 3 that left a car upside down in his driveway, resting against his home. A young female driver was airlifted to hospital following the crash. A dog that was in her vehicle at the time was treated for its injuries and was expected to be OK. It was the second time in three years a vehicle has crashed into Berger’s house; in October 2012, a BMW driven by a then-23-year-old smashed through one of the walls of Berger’s home, causing extensive damage. Berger presented council with a variety of speed-reduction options for Buena Vista Avenue, in a presentation that included photos of previous crashes and the steep hills leading down to the intersection near his home. Among the suggestions made by Berger was the addition of speed humps and rumble strips, or the installation a roundabout at the bot-

tom of Oxford hill. “It would effectively slow the traffic through Oxford at Buena Vista, particularly if there were speed humps prior to getting there,” he said. Berger pointed out that construction underway for a commercial/residential development at Oxford and Marine will only increase the traffic woes in the area. He urged council to commission a traffic-management study to “find an effective way of slowing the traffic before the momentum of the vehicles increase in such a way that they become missiles striking our houses.” Berger also presented council with a petition signed by 127 residents in favour of speed-reduction measures taking place. Last week, he told Peace Arch News that he has encountered nothing but support in his endeavour to slow traffic in the neighbourhood. “I haven’t had anyone who doesn’t think that action should be taken,” he said. Council voted unanimously to refer to staff for a report on the issue. White Rock RCMP continue to investigate the June 3 crash; the driver has been released from hospital and is recovering from undisclosed injuries, RCMP said Tuesday.

Out-of-town expenses to require Baldwin’s approval
Council gives mayor authority over travel Melissa Smalley Staff Reporter
White Rock city council voted Monday to boost its expense allocations to reflect the new four-year council terms, however one provision made to out-of-town expenses did not sit well with every council member. The policy changes were first proposed at a May 25 governance and legislation committee meeting – and voted on at Monday’s regular council meeting – and called for increases to the amounts councillors and the mayor can receive for educational expenses and reimbursement for expenses incurred at local community events. The changes also include a provision that would require the mayor’s “pre-approval” for expenses incurred outside of Metro Vancouver, a recommendation that was met with opposition by two. Coun. Helen Fathers told council she felt “there’s a problem with the language around it,” and she preferred it be changed, using her position on the Fraser Valley Regional Library Board as an example of why she didn’t agree with the provision. “A member of council who is approved
by council to serve on the Fraser Valley Regional Library Board, which is indeed outside of Metro Vancouver… this policy now speaks to also having it approved by the mayor to have the expenses submitted,” Fathers said. “And that just does not make sense.” Wayne Baldwin Dan Bottrill, the city’s chief administrative officer, told council the intent of the policy change was to “provide for those circumstances outside of the city for which there is legitimate council business,” allowing the mayor to have authority to approve expenses. Coun. Lynne Sinclair, who was not in attendance at the May 25 committee meeting when the issue was first discussed, said she understood the provision was meant to cover “one-off ” situations, and provide a level of “protection” for councillors. “As an individual councillor, I don’t want to decide whether it’s OK for me to stay somewhere,” Sinclair said. “I saw it as… a sanction that means I’m not going to be the subject
of a public discussion of where I stayed and why.” Fathers tabled a motion calling on staff to rework the language in the policy amendment; her motion was not carried, with Coun. David Chesney voting in favour and Couns. Meyer, Knight, Sinclair Helen Fathers and Mayor Wayne Baldwin voting against. (Coun. Bill Lawrence had stepped out of council chambers at the time of the vote). Prior to Monday’s decision, Baldwin told Peace Arch News that meetings outside Metro Vancouver are sometimes “pretty spur of the moment,” and members don’t have the opportunity to bring the expenses forth to council as a whole for approval. “The idea is to make sure that we treat those (expenses) consistently and that there is some kind of process to go through, so that people – not that it’s ever been an issue – don’t go running off doing stuff without getting some discussion about it first,” Baldwin said.
Baldwin said the instance of a council member taking a business trip out of town “doesn’t happen a lot,” and such expenses do not amount to significant figures. City staff told PAN that detailed information about previous council members’ outof-town expenses would require a freedom of information request, as council’s annual expenses are reported as lump-sum figures. There is currently an estimated 30-businessday wait time for such FOI requests. City clerk Tracy Arthur said she was unaware of other cities that include the provision that require the mayor’s pre-approval for out-of-town expenses. The increases to expenses allow councillors to be reimbursed up to $900 annually (currently $750) to represent the city at community events. Additionally, councillors will be allocated $5,400 for “discretional education conferences or education materials” for the four-year term; previous to Monday’s vote, councillors were allocated $4,000 for the three-year term for such expenses. The amount allocated to the mayor for educational expenses will increase to $8,000 (for four years) from $6,000 (for three years).

840,000 phone calls made to influence plebiscite outcome
Civic leaders report $5.8 million spent for ‘yes’ Jeff Nagel Black Press
The Metro Vancouver mayors’ council spent $5.8 million provided by TransLink in an attempt to swing more area residents to the ‘yes’ side in the recent plebiscite on increasing the sales tax to pay for more transit. The money financed a bombardment of media advertising, robocalls, mailouts and street canvassing to try to reach voters.
The largest expenditure – $2.3 million – was on media advertising, but voter contact was a close second. The disclosure, released by the mayors’ council, details payments to 14 firms providing public relations, communications, strategic or other support. More than 840,000 voters were robo-called to participate in one of the 15 telephone town halls conducted by mayors. The ‘yes’
campaign says 151,000 actually participated. The request from the mayors was approved by the TransLink board of directors. ‘No’ campaign leader Jordan Bateman said the mayors’ disclosure still under-estimates the ‘yes’ campaign’s war chest because it doesn’t count at least $1 million worth of staff time or in-kind contributions by municipalities such as Surrey, Vancouver and New
Westminster, or other money and effort expended by the ‘yes’ coalition. The ‘no’ campaign spent less than $40,000 with the largest contribution coming from the Canadian Taxpayers Federation, Bateman’s employer. “Whatever the result, we stood up for everyday people and made our case to the voters without wasting millions of their dollars like the mayors did,” Bateman said.
Voters were asked through the mail-in plebiscite if they approve a 0.5 per cent sales tax hike within Metro Vancouver to fund a $7.5-billion package of improvements, including new rapid-transit lines in Vancouver and Surrey, and broad improvement in bus service. Ballots that were received by May 29 by Elections BC are now being counted. The plebiscite result is expected by the end of June.

Breweries, distilleries and meaderies will be allowed to open up on farmland in the Agricultural Land Reserve, provided they meet the same rules set out for wineries. That’s one of a series of reforms announced in South Surrey by the province Monday that aim to make it easier for farmers to set up agricultural processing plants and otherwise earn more money from their land. As with wineries in the ALR, at least half the farm ingredients that go into the beer, spirits or mead must be grown on the farm. Agriculture Minister Norm Letnick noted hops farming is on an upswing in areas such as Chilliwack and Kamloops, and predicts the rule change will create an incentive for more farmers to take a risk and get into beverage production. “If that means you can enjoy some mead or some beer on a piece of farmland and that’s what it takes to get that farmland back into production, I’m OK with that,” Letnick said in an interview at South Surrey’s Evergreen Herbs, on 184 Street south of 40 Avenue. ALR land can also now be leased for farming without applying to the Agricultural Land Commission – a move the province hopes gets more unused land into production. Another change will make value-added processing easier by letting farms band together as coops and count all their members’ crops toward meeting the same 50 per cent local content rule. That’s expected to allow clusters of farms to feed into a plant in the ALR that makes something like juice or jam without seeking ALC approval. Metro Vancouver previously registered concern that looser rules for non-farm uses may result in less land being farmed and a further climb in farmland prices beyond what new farmers

It’s hoped that will help those retiring farmers sell their farms but encourage them to stay there and perhaps mentor a new, younger farmer, Letnick said, and meet the challenge of the coming “generational change” in agriculture. Second dwellings are still on the same parcel of land, which can’t be subdivided without asking the ALC. More proposed reforms relating to agri-tourism are still being considered and are to be put to local governments for feedback in the fall. Asked if he intends to increase the ALC’s budget so it can hire more compliance and enforcement officers – just three officers patrol the entire province for violations like illegal fill dumping – Letnick said that’s under consideration. He said the ALC’s budget is now $3.4 million, up from $2 million, and potential increases will be discussed with new ALC chair Frank Leonard.
can afford. “Some people wanted us to do more, some wanted us to do less,” Letnick said. “I firmly believe that we’ve come up with the right balance that promotes agriculture and safeguards agriculture but also provide for more opportunities for farmers to earn income on their land.” Winery restaurants in the ALR will now be allowed to serve alcohol they didn’t produce, such as beer. Some reforms apply only on farmland outside the Lower Mainland, Letnick said, because farmers face a tougher struggle to earn a living. A second home can now be built on large parcels of at least 50 hectares in the ALR’s rural Zone 2 provided residential uses make up less than 43,000 square feet. Letnick said that could allow farmers to build another house for family, lodging for workers, or a rental to earn extra money to support the farm. Similarly, retiring farmers in Zone 2 will be allowed to sell the farm but lease back their farm-

Installation of new pedestrian railway crossings at White Rock’s West Beach is nearly complete.
Parking lot traffic patterns also changing due to rail work
Crossings near completion Pedestrian railway crossings under construction on White Rock’s West Beach are getting closer to completion. City officials say the two at-grade, zigzag crossings – being installed at a cost of nearly $500,000 – are on-schedule for completion by the end of this month. But the controlled crossings are not the only change residents and visitors will notice
once the project is finished. Greg St. Louis, the city’s director of engineering and municipal operations, said Friday that traffic patterns for the adjacent parking lot – located immediately west of the Metro Vancouver pump station – are also being modified, to improve flow and reduce congestion. Traffic flow in the lot will be reduced to one-way, and the
current entrance at the east end of it will likely become exit only. “We don’t want people just past the Metro Vancouver pump station making a left and backing up the intersection (at Oxford Street),” St. Louis said. There will be no loss of parking, but the promenade will gain an additional 15-20 feet of green space, he added. – Tracy Holmes

Hot vehicles no place for children, pets
I
t’s that time of year again, when you make sure the air conditioning is working in your car and maybe even consider installing an automatic car starter – if you don’t already have one – to cool down the interior before you get in, because you just know, “it’s going to be an oven in there.” And with the heat comes the annual warnings about leaving children and pets in your car. It should go without saying that small children shouldn’t be left unattended, no matter the weather, but such warnings are even more necessary as the mercury climbs. Failure to heed them can lead to tragic consequences. At least a few times each summer, we hear of police responding to reports of children left in hot vehicles – and in recent years, SPCA constables and some local governments have advocated giving authorities the right to break car windows, should an overheated pet be inside. The issue again came to the forefront last year, when six dogs died of head exhaustion under the care of a Langley dog-walker. The dogs – first reported stolen – were later found dead in an Abbotsford ditch. It was a case that tugged at the heartstrings of all pet lovers, and hopefully – in the vain search for a silver lining – drove home to all that such actions cannot be tolerated. Sure, many drivers will leave their charges in vehicles for just a short time – maybe while running a quick errand. And they’ll likely crack a window for air circulation, but studies have shown that doing so doesn’t help much to prevent dangerously high temperatures. Last June, shortly after the deaths of the six dogs, the City of Surrey strengthened its Dog Responsibility Bylaw to allow bylaw officers to directly issue tickets – up to $500 – to those who violate the care-of-dogs regulation. More needs to be done to educate – and if necessary, punish – people for putting other living creatures at risk. While not done intentionally, it is careless, and whether it’s pets, or children, or others in their care, it’s mind-boggling that some people would put others in a dangerous situation that could leave them with heat stroke – or worse, could kill them.

So far this week you’ve said…
yes 43% no 57% 86 responding And, as probably most parents leaving the ceremonies last week were reminding themselves, it’s far from over – although there’s a measure of that, since many of us will see our grads leave home at the end of summer. Like most aspects of parenthood, descriptors of changes like “empty-nest syndrome” don’t begin to articulate the feelings. Empty-heart syndrome is more like it. From daily contact and interaction, family suppers every night, homework projects and weekend activities, to texts, phone calls and occasional visits? Inconceivable, but real. How can a university possibly take the place of “home?” Yet it does. And eventually, she will have her own home, and we would wish it no other way. Nevertheless, my role now seems somewhat uncertain. For the past 18 years, it was so clearly, solidly defined. Although, perhaps it doesn’t really change too much. Give unconditional love. Provide unfaltering support. All children deserve that from their parents. I did, and I am eternally grateful for it, and the opportunity to do so myself. Now, my beautiful girl, step forward on your new path. Challenge yourself, and live your dreams. Care about your world. No mom and dad could be prouder. And as always, if you need me, I’ll be there. But you know all that.

Penitentiary motif undone
Image conscious
Editor: I just returned from a trip abroad, which included some of the beaches in France and Croatia. I liked them well enough, but, yesterday, when I took a walk on one of my favourite beach promenades, I was amazed at the inventiveness of the new décor. Kudos to White Rock Mayor Baldwin and council. The penitentiary motif is wonderful. Black chainlink would make any inmate feel at home. Imagine, when I would go to some of my favourite restaurants on the strip, in the past, I used to be able to see the ocean. How dull. They’ve even denuded some of the bluffs to enhance that bleak effect. Well done! I would, however, modestly propose just a few enhancements to this ‘Beach behind Bars’ installation. How about some razor wire on the arches and railings of the pier, or searchlights on top of the White Rock? What a sorry youth I used to have, I was taught by my parents to “stop, look and listen.” And the beaches were bereft of barriers. Harvey Ostroff, Surrey
Editor: I was appalled when Global TV viewers and local writers commented so cruelly on meteorologist Kristi Gordon’s pregnant condition and her continued appearance on television (Maternity criticisms draw fire, May 6). In the June 12 edition of Peace Arch News, I see a photo of barechested and bare-bellied man on the front page (Makeshift church given 30 days to clear, June 12). In my opinion, this ‘gentleman’ – along with the thousands of other overweight topless men who parade themselves in our communities and in the media – constitute a far more unsavory and ‘disgusting’ image than any pregnant woman ever would. Put a shirt on! Carol Prokop, Surrey
PAN fails to name names Editor: Re: Looking for substance, April 24 editorial. A title fit for two. Indeed, the long overdue and heavily backloaded budget is just another one of Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s unlimited impressions of economic competence and leadership. Since coming to office in 2006, the Conservatives have spent a ton of taxpayer time and dime on mastering the skills of the grand illusion. And grand they are, to the tune of $750 million-and-counting. Now we find out we’re on the hook for another $13.5 million to promote this so-called budget of theirs. Just typical modus operandi for the Harper government. They would rather spend a ton of money on creating false impressions and perceptions than doing the hard work that Canada truly needs for its economic and environmental health. As much as I would have liked to appreciate the editorial’s finer points, Peace Arch News’ convenient failure to exclude the names of the politicians and their affiliated parties makes for a very hollow script and seriously questions the PAN’s desire for providing substance of their own. If the PAN was really serious about wanting a challenger for South Surrey-White Rock candidate Dianne Watts (Federal voters deserve choice, April 29 editorial), then they might do a better job at providing us with information and details of a much higher quality. John Freeman, White Rock
No monopoly in the wild Editor: Re: Crows warrant a major recount, June 10 letters; Doing nothing puts birds at risk, May 29 letters. Those who want to blame all the ills in the natural world on crows would do well to read a study such as the one in Science News: Magazine of the Society for Science & the Public, by Susan Milius,
which begins in this way: “Domestic cats kill many more wild birds in the United States than scientists thought, according to a new analysis. Cats may rank as the biggest immediate danger that living around people brings to wildlife, researchers say. “America’s cats, including housecats that adventure outdoors and feral cats, kill between 1.3 billion and 4.0 billion birds in a year, says Peter Marra of the Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute in Washington, D.C., who led the team that performed the analysis. Previous estimates of bird kills have varied, he says, but ‘500 million is a number that has been thrown around a lot.’” Just sayin’. Michèle McManus, White Rock
Finding the middle ground Editor: Reality check – something is going to develop on Oxford Street, so let’s engage in a positive direction to drive it on our terms. The developers want to create two 24- and 21-storey highrise buildings. Say ‘no’ to that and say ‘yes’ to four-six storeys only. The owner has the right to make whatever proposal he wants, and council can either approve the proposal or not. Thus it is up to the community and citizens of White Rock to state their piece. The property will be developed;
how high it will be is totally up to what we are willing to accept. It is best to negotiate something that we will approve – such as a low-rise – as opposed to saying ‘no’ to it all. Focus on the reality and send a strong message to the mayor and council to listen to our thoughts, rationale and reasonable stance on middle ground with regards to this particular location. I believe our elected officials will respect the democratic process and support the majority. Now it’s up to us to get our voices heard so it is very clear what the majority wants. Building a strong Johnston Road town centre for a sustainable city in terms of density, increasing the tax base and strengthening and supporting local business is smart growth, but not in the Oxford Street residential area. Keep the highrises where they belong! With limited land mass in White Rock, we can only build up, not out – but let’s do it in a controlled way that is complementary and respectful to the neighbouring communities. Residential single-family homes are nearby and Evergreen Baptist Care Centre that backs onto this property will be an eight-storey building. The Royce condo complex, that is in the front left of the building, is a low-rise at four to five storeys – so let’s meet in the middle allowing two buildings, maximum six stories high, period. Write, email or talk to our local White Rock government officials. Speak out now before it’s too late to turn back time! Irma Bijdemast, White Rock

Efforts to involve residents in the watering process of roadside trees are being ignored, writes Heather Berger.
City’s water plea goes unheeded Editor: During my many strolls around White Rock, I have been impressed with the large numbers of new trees planted along boulevards and the walkways of parks. Knowing how unusually dry this spring has been, I was encouraged to see each young tree wrapped with a green watering bag, complete with a sticker encouraging citizens to assist in keeping the roots moist. Obviously, the message has gone unnoticed or unheeded, because many of these recent plantings are in distress, as am I, thinking of the waste of money,
time and energy spent planting trees that are dying of thirst. Many trees are standing next to homeowners’ driveways. They either don’t see, don’t care or assume that whoever planted the trees will ensure that they are kept alive. When you visit your parks, take along a large jug of water. If the trees are within reach of your garden hose, give them a drink. Adopt a tree! Save a life! Heather Berger, White Rock

Surrey Mayor Linda Hepner addresses news media Monday afternoon.
Feud victims ‘should pay’ i from page 1 At a news conference Monday afternoon, police released the identity of one victim, noting it was the second time the 20-year-old has been injured as a result of the ongoing conflict. Ravindra Samra, they said, remains unco-operative – a situation Surrey Mayor Linda Hepner described as extremely frustrating. Hepner called for changes to B.C.’s civil forfeiture legislation that would make it possible for governments to seize the assets of unco-operative victims to pay for their hospital care. “Is there any opportunity under the Civil Forfeiture Act to change it, that they can pay back, to you and to me, the costs of their unnecessary care, given what’s going on right now?� Hepner said. “They should be paying back the costs, or their families should be paying back the costs.�
Despite the shootings – the week’s violence began June 8, with gunfire outside of a restaurant at 72 Avenue and Scott Road – Hepner stands by her claim that Surrey is safe. “I consider this city safe, but I consider this issue top-of-mind for every politician and police officer,� Hepner said. “I’m going to stick with my ‘safe city,’ but a safe city in desperate need of solving this intolerable issue.� Police are still looking for a silver Pontiac Vibe that was seen fleeing westbound on Highway 10 immediately after the shooting on Saturday. They have seized a light-coloured SUV thought to be connected to the shooting and are obtaining a warrant to gather evidence from inside. Anyone with information on any of the shootings is asked to call the tip line at 604-915-6566 or, to remain anonymous, call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 (TIPS).

The expansion of the Trans Mountain pipeline will mean more than $93 million in extra costs for taxpayers in Langley, Surrey, Coquitlam, Abbotsford and Burnaby, according to a report filed with the National Energy Board (NEB) late last month. The study by Associated Engineering, now posted on the NEB website, was funded by the five municipalities. Projected over 50 years, the report concludes the added cost of building municipal infrastructure around the new pipeline “exceeds $93,000,000.” Coquitlam would bear the biggest expense, $28.5 million, followed by Burnaby with $17.6 million, Surrey with $17.1 million, Abbotsford at $17 million and the Township of Langley

School award eases student’s journey Tracy Holmes

Staff Reporter
eninsula grads are raking in funds for their post-secondary education. Awards doled out to students this year – not including those presented by the individual schools themselves – ranged in value up to $80,000, with two of those awards landing in the hands of Semiahmoo Secondary grads and a third going to an Elgin Park student. While any amount is a welcome boost when it comes to pursuing higher learning, for some it can make the difference in whether post-secondary education is even an option. Earl Marriott Secondary grad Kyla Barton told Peace Arch News she would pursue her post-secondary goals no matter what, but her $35,000 Cmolik Foundation award has dramatically eased the journey. According to the foundation’s website, it’s presented to youth “who are financially challenged and have demonstrated tenacity to overcome a significant barrier or disadvantage in their life.”
Barton, 18, said she grew up “with many obstacles,” and has been living on her own since last August. Though she declined to go into specifics, she said she hit a speed bump in her high school journey after illness forced her to miss much of Grade 10. Determined, she attended the South Surrey/White Rock Learning Centre to make up for lost time, and graduated this year with what learning-centre principal Jim McConnell described as “unbelievable marks.” Barton – who swam competitively for six years before a shoulder injury took her out of the pool – said the Cmolik award was welcome news. “It’s nice. I would have gone to school regardless, it just would’ve been harder.” Obstacles along the way “made me to be stronger and to realize that no matter what happens, you can do anything,” she said. “There’s times you lose track of the goals. It’s all about keep getting back on your feet.” Barton said she’ll attend the SFU Beedie School of Business, and plans to pursue a
career in the financial industry. EMS officials declined to share details of other high-level scholarship winners, citing privacy. At Semi, principal Claudine Bunyan described 2014-15 as “a phenomenal year” in terms of awards claimed by International Baccalaureate students. “The group we have this year is amazing,” she said. Bunyan noted this is the IB program’s 35th year at Semi and it “just seems to be getting stronger and stronger.” Semi’s Rika Sugimoto-Dimitrova and Maro Lee both won $80,000 scholarships; Sugimoto-Dimitrova, the UBC Schulich Leadership Scholarship and Lee, from the Maryland Institute College of Art (MICA). In addition, four Semi students were among 20 in Canada shortlisted for the prestigious Blyth Cambridge Scholarship Trust. This is the first time in four years a Semi student has not won the award. “We didn’t have a winner there, but we exceeded everywhere else,” Bunyan said. At Elgin Park, Brendan Cottrell won
the $80,000 SFU Schulich Leadership Scholarship. Other Semiahmoo scholarship winners ($20,000 and up) included: • Cindy Huang, California Institute of Technology ($48,000) • Kevin (Yen Ta) Feng, MICA ($42,000) • Maggi Li, Gordon M. Shrum Scholarship, ($24,000) • Judy Song, UBC Entrance Scholarship ($20,000) • Peter Lee, Harvard bursary ($67,000) • Matthew Weins, University of Calgary, Schulich Engineering Scholarship ($56,800) • Seyoung Jeon, McGill entrance scholarship ($20,000) • Jerry Liang, Lawrence University, ($20,000) • Jill Xu, New York University ($30,000) • Amneet Mann, SFU entrance scholarship ($20,000) • Katherine Reiss, Mount Allison ($35,000) • Scott Jang, University of Michigan Business School ($26,000) • Chelsea Ribeiro, Eastern Washington University track scholarship ($35,000/year)

Adding body collagen directly reduces wrinkles, increases skin elasticity, and adds vital moisture to your skin. Indirectly, collagen thickens and strengthens your hair. You may also know that collagen production slows by 1% per year after the age of 21. Can you gain it back? Yes. But not by eating collagen. You see, collagen is a protein. When you ingest it, your body breaks it down, like any other protein, and uses it as food. When you want the real beauty benefits of collagen, you have to generate it.
BioSil™ generates collagen by activating the collagen producing cells in your body known as fibroblasts. It is clinically proven to increase collagen formation. In fact, in the clinical trial the women taking BioSil™ reduced wrinkles by 30%, increased skin elasticity by 89% and thickened and strengthened their hair by 13% compared to women not taking BioSil™. So when you want genuine visible results from collagen, generate it, don’t eat it. Experience the beautiful difference for yourself!
Dr. Marita Schauch, BSc ND debunks myths about collagen “creams,” beauty industry promises and plastic surgery to show you how and why building and generating collagen is an essential component to true health and beauty in her newest book

consultations and residents within defined geographical boundaries to ensure meaningful and civil discussion. The release of Neighbourhoods represents a shift that allows residents who have been verified as living within specific neighbourhood boundaries to connect privately with others in their own neighbourhood. Key features of the GeoSocial platform include a community notice board, events calendar and neighbour messaging. Both the City of Surrey and the Surrey School District began conducting consultations using the PlaceSpeak platform in 2012. Since then, approximately 1,250 residents from Surrey have registered with PlaceSpeak. “Our new service, Neighbourhoods, will
help residents become more engaged in their community,” says Colleen Hardwick, CEO of PlaceSpeak. “All too often we hear that people don’t know who lives on their own block, let alone in the community at-large. There’s a lot of hyper local information that can be shared online; simple things like reporting incidences of crime, sharing public-safety notices, finding lost pets, or recommending babysitters. Neighbourhoods provides an opportunity for individuals to connect with other neighbours on an online platform.” Sonya Marcinkowska, secretary of the Panorama Neighbourhood Association, says it’s important for neighbours to be able to communicate, get involved and connect

South Surrey golfer set for busy summer
Svensson heating up This summer is shaping up to be a busy – and potentially lucrative – one for South Surrey golfer Adam Svensson. After spending the spring tearing up the SwingThought.com Tour in the southern United States, the 21-year-old Earl Marriott Secondary grad is back in Canada, where he’s set to compete on the PGA Tour of Canada’s Mackenzie Tour. After setting numerous school records at Barry University – an NCAA Div. 3 school in Florida – Svensson turned pro in March, and won three straight SwingThought events. In late May, he finished second at the Mackenzie Tour’s opening tournament, the PC Financial Open at Vancouver’s Point Grey Golf Course. In total, Svensson has made almost $100,000 since turning pro, and scored an $11,500 cheque for his second-place finish at Point Grey. Two weekends ago, Svensson finished in a tie

again travelled south after earning an invite to the Web.com Tour’s RustOleum Championship in Ohio, but he’ll return to Canada afterward, for more Mackenzie Tour events. On June 25, the tour heads to Fort McMurray for the Syncrude Boreal Open, and two events in the Prairies – in Saskatoon and Winnipeg – are on tap for July.

Daniel Wesley One of B.C.’s most popular independent artists, Daniel Wesley – White Rock native and soon-to-be South Surrey resident – will be the headliner for The City of White Rock’s Canada Day celebrations on Wednesday, July 1. Wesley, 33, who has been making his mark on the worldwide stage for the past decade (including a new album, I Am Your Man), is returning to his groovebased roots for the concert, with a lineup of stellar sidemen, including his longtime rhythm section – bassist Darren Paris and drummer Tim Proznick, son of Semiahmoo band guru David and brother of jazz bassist Jodi – plus saxophonist Alex Maher and keyboardist-guitarist Mike Kenney. Adding to the lineup for the free concert adjacent to the pier – concluding a full day of city-sponsored Canada Day activities – will be rising B.C.-based indie band The River and the Road. Wesley’s appearance is part of the new look for White Rock celebrations, in which the White Rock BIA, and executive director Douglas Smith (New Westminster’s Concerts at the Quay series), has been taking a role in marketing, production and presentation.

The myths and truths about chiropractic I have been a practicing chiropractor for over 35 years now. I have been in the White Rock Region for 31 of these years. Over those years people often ask the same questions regarding chiropractic. Although a question not directly asked by patients coming into the office, a percentage of the general public asks “Does it work?” The flat out answer is of course, yes! Chiropractic as a profession has been around officially since 1895. The profession continues to grow

and more and more patients are seeing chiropractors than ever before. The research in peer reviewed journals is overwhelming. Many studies have been done on all aspects of chiropractic with very good results. Chiropractors get good results with their techniques although results do vary from patient to patient. The safety of Chiropractic is another question the general public asks. Chiropractic is among the safest of the healing arts. Chiropractors are well trained professionals with at least 7 years of post high school education. Chiropractors are licensed and registered with the College of Chiropractors of B.C. Chiropractors are required to undertake education each year to maintain their license. Strict regulations are adhered to by the membership. Injuries from Chiropractic are very low. Is Chiropractic care expensive? Chiropractic is very cost effective care. Many British Columbians are covered by third party insurers. Some of these insurers pay 80-100% of the visit fees. Patients are also covered by WorkSafe B.C. and ICBC when involved in accidents. How long is my chiropractic care going to take? This question of course varies from individual to individual and also is based on their clinical picture. Care can last anywhere from a few visits to several visits. It is different from person to person. Sometimes people do require some form of ongoing or maintenance care to provide stability to a particular condition.

Sports Reporter
fter a tough first few months of the season, things are finally picking up for the White Rock Tritons. The hard-luck BC Premier Baseball League team – which has been stuck in last place in the 12-team circuit for much of the season – has won four of its last five games, and is 6-4 over the last 10. More importantly, despite a 9-21 win-loss record, they’re now within striking distance of the eighth and final playoff spot, which is currently held by the Coquitlam Reds, who have a 12-20 mark. The Tritons are currently in a three-team deadlock – along with the struggling Abbotsford Cardinals and the Victoria Mariners – for the ninth spot. Last weekend, the Tritons headed south for a tournament in Seattle, but prior to their trip to the Emerald City, they reeled off
never.” In turn, the offensive boost has lifted up the rest of the team, he added. The team had received some solid pitching performances prior to the team’s June turnaround, but defence had been a struggle until recently. “It’s easing up the pitching staff, and taking some pressure off the defence, so naturally we’re playing better there, too,” Smithson said. “You don’t think that every runner that gets on first base is going to score anymore, and for awhile it felt like that. When you’re not putting up numbers, it can be difficult all around, and your problems snowball.” Smithson was especially pleased with the play of three of his veteran hitters – catcher Thomas Vincent and outfielders Aaron Wiegert and Juan Paez. Since the team’s 10-0 win over the Blue Jays on June 4, the trio has been on fire. i see page 36
Junior Tritons fourth on U16 circuit The U18 Tritons aren’t the only local baseball team that’s been on a roll of late. The under-16 Junior Tritons are right in the thick of the playoff mix in the BC Junior Premier Baseball League, sitting in fourth place with a 12-9 won-loss record. They’ve got 6-4 over the last 10 contests, and are coming off a split against the North Shore Junior Twins last weekend in North Vancouver. White Rock won the first game of the doubleheader, 7-4, on the strength of a sixth-inning comeback. Trailing 4-1 heading into the frame, the Tritons exploded for six runs to stake themselves a sizable lead. First baseman Nick Kutilin and third baseman a 10-0 win over the North Delta Blue Jays; took both ends of a doubleheader against the Mariners two Saturdays ago, and followed up June 7 by splitting a two-game set against the North Shore Twins – the team’s win streak came to
Jeremy Kelleway led the way with two hits apiece, while pitcher Matthew Leeder earned the win on the mound, striking out two while allowing four runs in five innings of work. Chris Kaufmann pitched the last inning to pick up the save. In the second game, the Twins got a measure of revenge, winning 12-7. Dawson Gray had a triple, and a run-batted-in, and Michael O’Toole had a double to lead the Tritons’ offence. The Junior Tritons are back on the field tonight (Wednesday) for a road tilt against the Abbotsford Cardinals at Abby’s Delair Park. This Sunday, White Rock will head to Coquitlam for two games against the Redlegs.
an end in the second game when they lost 7-1. But aside from that blip, they’ve been among the league’s hottest squads – a streak head coach Russ Smithson attributes largely to the team’s hitters.
“We’ve been on a nice little roll here, it’s nice,” he said. “And the difference, mostly, is offence, I gotta say. We’re not pressing, and the runs are just starting to come. It’s a little overdue, but better late than

Roster moves The Surrey Eagles continue to add to their roster in advance of training camp at the end of the summer. Last week, the BC Hockey League team announced the signing of Jon
Venter, a 19-year-old defenceman from Canterbury Prep School in Connecticut – the same school that now-departed Eagles’ goaltender Christian Short attended before coming to the BCHL. “Christian had great things to say about

sports Surrey and it was one of my top destinations in the BCHL,” Venter said. Eagles’ head coach Blaine Neufeld was excited to have the blue-liner in the fold for next season, and expects him to have a significant impact.
“We’ve seen a lot of video on him from this past season. We did our homework on him… I would expect him to come into camp and show maturity and leadership even though he will be a rookie in our league,” he said. Earlier this month,
the Eagles acquired Kyle Star – a Langley native – from the Brooks Bandits of the Alberta Junior Hockey League in exchange for future considerations. The 20-year-old forward has played two seasons in the AJHL for three teams,

Tritons’ remaining games against Abbotsford will be pivotal i from page 33 In that span, Vincent has hit .500 (7-for-14), with a double, triple, five runs-batted-in and four walks; Paez is hitting .555 with two
doubles, four runsscored, two RBI and four stolen bases; and Wiegert is hitting .461 with a triple, four RBI, four stolen bases, four runs and two walks.
“Those three are guys we were really relying on this year, and they’ve really found their groove, and that’s picked us up big time,” Smithson said.
“(Shortstop) Danny Hollins had really been carrying the offence before that, but he can only carry us so much. He needed some help, and the guys have
done it.” The coach also had high praise for pitcher Patrick van den Brink, who pitched the team to a pair of victories – first, in the win over
North Delta, and then against the Twins. In the first game, van den Brink lasted six innings, allowing just two hits and one walk, while striking

out seven. Against the Twins, he pitched four and two-thirds of an inning, giving up just one earned run and striking out five. “Pat threw on short rest for us, and was just outstanding. He picked everybody up,” Smithson said. With just 14 games left on the regularseason schedule, the Tritons will have to continue to pick up wins if they want to stay in the hunt. They still have four games left against Abbotsford – a team that started red hot but has won just three of its last 10 games – and those games could go a long way to determining if either one can catch Coquitlam for the final playoff spot. “Those games are huge for us. It could really swing things one way or the other – for either team,” said Smithson. “We have some winnable games that can keep us in the hunt – we just have to go out there and get it done, and win them. “I’ll give the guys credit, they were never really down on themselves and they always put in the effort when we were struggling, but this kind of gives us an extra bit of energy, now that we can see ourselves potentially back in the playoff picture.” White Rock played the Whalley Chiefs last night (Tuesday) after Peace Arch News’ deadline, and then won’t play another league tilt until a June 27 doubleheader against the North Delta Blue Jays.

The Tritons’ two victories over the Victoria Mariners June 6 were part of the team’s first-ever Fanfare Day. Prior to the games, members of the Junior Tritons’ under-16 team conducted a skills clinic for some of White Rock-South Surrey Baseball’s nine- and 10-year-old players. Fans, sponsors and dignitaries also took in some pre-game activities, including a barbecue. The event “was very well-received” said Tritons’ general manager Marty Lehn.

OBITUARIES
DYCE, Roy George April 27, 1945 - June 12, 2015
Roy died peacefully surrounded by family at Surrey Memorial Hospital on June 12, 2015 at the age of 70. Roy was a devoted husband to his loving wife of 47 years Judy, a proud father of his children Lindsay (Kimberly) and Rhonda and adoring grandfather to Josh and Evan. He always felt fortunate to come from such a large family -brothers Bill (Barb), Jim, Andy (Patty), Lindsay, John (Penny) and sisters Donna (Roy), Elsie (Earl), Audrey (Walter), Brenda (Ron), Lynn (Rob), and Anna (Dave) and many nieces and nephews. Roy was also a cherished brother-in-law to Gerry and Gloria Reimer. Roy is preceded in death by his Mother, Father, two brothers Irwin and Charlie (Donna), brother-in-law Edwin Scott and sister-in-law Kathy. Roy was born in Mount Forest, Ontario to Frank and Emma Dyce. He moved west in 1966 where he met Judy and began working for Westcoast Transmission, followed by Pacific Northern Gas. Roy was a dedicated and loyal employee spending over 45 years with the company, including 17 years as the CEO. Roy will always be remembered as a kind, honest and generous family man and for his amazing smile. His favourite times were with his adoring wife Judy when he was surrounded by his family and friends and going for walks with his beloved beagle Kirby. A Celebration of Life will be held in Arthur, Ontario. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Canadian Diabetic Association. Condolences may be offered at www.victoryfuneralcentre.ca Victory Memorial Park Funeral Centre 604-536-6522
NEWNHAM, Edward Herbert Edward, born in Nanaimo, BC, passed away peacefully at Peace Arch Hospital, May 21, 2015 at the age of 94. Ed was predeceased by his wife Gwendolyn (2014), brother Robert, and sister Edna. He will be greatly missed and lovingly remembered by his daughter Heather (Allan) Northrup; granddaughter Jennifer; his brother-in-law John (Rita) Robertson; sisterin-law Marjorie (Bruce) Ellsworth; and nieces and nephews. Ed proudly served with the Canadian Armed Forces for 34 years and also had a career with the Ministry of Transport as an electronics technician. Ed and Gwen travelled the world and especially enjoyed many happy times in Hawaii with family and friends. He will be fondly remembered for his positive spirit, kindness and love of family. We would like to give a special thank you to Ed’s caregivers Jennifer and Grace, for all their loving attention, care and compassion. No service by request. A gathering to honor his memory will be held at a later date. “Until we meet again” Condolences may be offered at www.victoryfuneralcentre.ca Victory Memorial Park Funeral Centre 604-536-6522
WHEELER, Marcia May Passed away at the age of 92 at Peace Arch Hospital on Friday, June 5, 2015, with her devoted husband of 67 years, Douglas, by her side. She is predeceased by her son, Roderic, and fondly remembered by her daughter-in-law, Gail. Marcia was an avid gardener and would have smiled to see her Canterbury Bells presently blooming. Private family services will be held at a later date. Victory Memorial Park Funeral Centre 604-536-6522
Mum was born in Ontario. She trained as a RN and worked as a public health nurse for the City of Ottawa until 1955. Beulah met Albert in 1954 and they relocated to Edmonton where they married in 1955. Albert’s work took them to Northern BC, and in 1968 to Victoria where they remained until 1980 when Albert was transferred to Burnaby. Beulah was a devoted mother and homemaker. She spent countless hours volunteering with her children’s sporting clubs and she was a CGIT Leader with the United Church and was a UCW member in every community she lived. Mum & Dad moved to White Rock in 1991 where they enjoyed their gardens, seaside walks and frequent visits from their granddaughters. In 2011 they returned to Victoria to be closer to family and they have been living at the Berwick Royal Oak retirement home since then. Mum was able to remain at home during her illness only because of the unending devotion and nursing care provided by Dad. She had a full life and we are thankful for our many wonderful memories. If you are able, please buy your mother a box of Purdy’s Chocolates in her honour. A Memorial Service will be held at Gordon Head United Church in Victoria at 2:30 PM on June 20, 2015. Tea to follow at the church.
