Senate debate cut short on local MP’s private member’s bill targeting unions

Speaker blindsided by Tory colleagues Alex Browne Arts Reporter

Senate Speaker Leo Housakos admitted he was “surprised” Friday as the Conservative majority in the chamber carried a vote to shut down debate on local MP Russ Hiebert’s controversial labour bill, C-377. Housakos – himself a Conservative senator – told Peace Arch News MP Russ Hiebert he wasn’t expecting what he termed a

“drastic action” to overrule his ruling and invoke closure on debate, effectively forcing a vote on the bill this week. At PAN press time Tuesday, the private member’s bill seemed likely to be passed in the Senate by the end of the day. Hiebert did not return requests for an interview. The South Surrey-White Rock-Cloverdale MP has said in the past that C-377 is intended to provide transparency in

unions’ financial affairs by requiring them to report in detail to the Canada Revenue Agency. But many critics have attacked the bill, accusing it of being a transparent attempt at ‘union-busting’ that is both unconstitutional and so loosely drafted that it will be liable to legal challenge. As Speaker, Housakos had ruled that C-377, as a private member’s bill, was private business – not government busi-

ness – and not subject to a call for closure. Senate Opposition Leader James Cowan said he was “disappointed” by the Senate vote. He and other Liberal senators had signalled their intention earlier last week to continue the debate through the summer, expecting it would die on the vine if not passed by the Senate before this fall’s federal election. i see page 4

$23 million estimated

Water takeover in three months Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

The City of White Rock will own its water utility by the end of September, following a vote Monday to expropriate the system from Edmonton-based Epcor. Council voted unanimously to direct the chief administrative officer to work with the city’s lawyer with a view to acquire title to the water utility by Sept. 30. The vote marks the end of two years of negotiations with Epcor to buy the utility – talks that Mayor Wayne Baldwin said last month were “not going well.” In a report on proposed amendments to the city’s financial plan that factored in the need for longterm borrowing to acquire the utility, director of financial services Sandra Kurylo estimated the cost at $23 million. The sum, she explained, includes the cost of completing Epcor’s total water quality management project, which includes chlorination of the system by June 2016. i see page 2

$1.18 million spent by Surrey First exceeds proposed maximums by $300,000

MLAs call for limits on civic campaigns Tom Fletcher & Alex Browne Black Press / Staff Reporter

Candidates for a council seat in a small community should be able to spend no more than $10,000 to run for mayor and $5,000 for a council or school board seat, says a legislature committee on local election financing. For larger communities, a populationbased formula would limit a mayoral campaign for a city of 150,000 residents to just under $90,000, with other municipal candidates limited to half that. The small-town limits apply to communities up to 10,000 residents.

For larger ones, mayoral candidates would be limited to $1 per capita for the first 15,000 people, 55 cents per capita from 15,000 to 150,000 of the population, 60 cents per capita for 150,000 to 200,000 and only 15 cents for the remainder of the population in communities larger than that. In Surrey, based on a population of 470,000 from the last census, the proposal would mean that while a mayoral candidate could spend close to $160,000, a councillor candidate would have to spend under $80,000. In the 2014 Surrey First sweep, $1.18 million was spent electing Mayor Linda Hepner and

all eight candidates. Under the proposed limits, it would mean they would have collectively overspent by more than $300,000. In White Rock – with a population calculated at 19,339 in the last census – Mayor Wayne Baldwin spent $10,950 to get re-elected last fall, well within the proposed limits. But the three candidates who spent most running for a council seat in White Rock – including Dennis Lypka (highest, at $10,670), followed by successful candidates Grant Meyer ($10,310) and Megan Knight ($9,725), all exceeded the proposed limits. Fraser-Nicola MLA Jackie Tegart, who

chaired the committee as it toured the province, said the limits are aimed to make running for local government “accessible and affordable,” while recognizing the vast difference between political campaigns in large cities and those in small communities. The spending limits still have to be endorsed by the legislature, but the BC Liberal and NDP members of the committee endorsed them unanimously. They are part of a series of local election reforms that included extending terms to four years. The spending limits would be in effect starting on Jan. 1 of each election year.

Though the Semiahmoo Peninsula wasn’t one of the dozens of areas to break warm-weather records over the weekend – 64 records were broken around B.C. Saturday and Sunday – it was still beach weather for many in South Surrey and White Rock, where the mercury crept up beyond 27 C.

Rail safety the goal of work ordered by Transport Canada

Beachgoers urged to use new, safer crossings Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

Nearly two years after tragedy on White Rock’s waterfront sparked an order to improve safety along the rail line, city officials crossed West Beach tracks with a celebratory step. “This is a good day for us,” Mayor Wayne Baldwin said Friday, shortly before testing out one of two atgrade pedestrian rail crossings with his wife, Jane, and other officials. “It’s been a journey to get here. There’s more improvements to come, but this is a step along the way.” The crossings – at Oxford and Anderson streets – were constructed at a cost of approximately $500,000, and replace unmonitored access points that were closed to the public more than a year ago as part of efforts to discourage people from trespassing along the rail line. The work was ordered by Transport Canada, following the July 2013 death of a jogger who was struck by a passenger train on East Beach tracks.

Baldwin said the Finlay crossing where the jogger was hit and others along the waterfront were “set up in a kinder, gentler time,” when fewer and shorter trains were rolling through on a daily basis. “Things have changed,” he said. “People’s attitudes have changed. I think Transport Canada recognized that and said ‘you have to make it safer.’” The work done has made the crossings “much better than they were before,” Baldwin said. A day earlier, the city’s director of engineering, Greg St. Louis, told Peace Arch News that it’s too soon to say how much the increased access points on West Beach will discourage trespassing, but he is optimistic. In East Beach – where mesh fencing was installed along the promenade hand railing last fall and a six-foot-high, wroughtiron-style fence added for 160 feet east from the Finlay Street crossing – “we’ve been seeing a lot less.” The concept behind the reduced

Tracy Holmes photo

Coun. Megan Knight joins other officials crossing the tracks safely Friday. access in West Beach appeared lost on some visitors last week, however. In the space of less than 30 minutes Thursday afternoon, one teen was seen hopping the railing to access the rip rap, and a photographer lined up a pair newlyweds on the tracks adjacent to the pier for wedding pictures. On Friday, a pair of beachgoers – right in front of city and Transport Canada officials – decided the tracks were a better place to walk their dog. While Baldwin didn’t specifically address Friday’s flagrant disregard for the safety measures, he did say

Transport Canada’s guidelines don’t fit White Rock’s unique position, but didn’t elaborate. At the same time, he said, the federal agency has “shown some understanding for the situation that we’re in.” Work still to be done includes more comprehensive upgrades – including signals and lights – to the six waterfront pedestrian crossings (Finlay, Ash, Balsam, Cypress and Bay Street, as well as at the pier). Cost of that work was initially estimated at $1.8 million, however, St. Louis said the final tab will be more. The city’s 2015-2019 financial

plan shows $1.57 million allocated to railway pedestrian crossing work during that time, including $425,000 in 2016 for the Finlay crossing; $620,000 in 2018 for the Bay crossing; and $525,000 in 2019 for the Balsam crossing. The amounts are expected to be funded up to 50 per cent through Transport Canada’s Grade Crossing Improvement Program. Of $2.575 million anticipated to be spent after 2019 on the remaining crossings (Ash, Cypress and at the pier head, as well as on signals and lights for the two crossings opened Friday), nearly $1 million may be covered by grants. St. Louis said that while there has been no talk so far of cost-sharing the work with railway owner BNSF, there will be. He confirmed there is a provision to apply for a decision – should there be a disagreement – on cost apportionment through the Canadian Transportation Agency. It would be a council decision to take that step, he said.

Most backed ‘closure’ not ‘debate’ i from page 1 But moments after Housakos delivered his decision, Claude Carrignan, Conservative leader in the upper chamber, called on the Senate as a whole to overrule it. Carrignan’s motion was passed on a vote of 32-17, with five Conservatives abstaining and Conservative Sen. Diane Bellemare – and Housakos – voting against it. “I can’t say I’m pleased,” Housakos said Friday morning, adding that he believes that the call for closure goes against Senate principles on the division between government business and private business “that have been in place for 148 years.” “As Speaker, I was put in a difficult situation,” he said, adding that the role of Senate Speaker, unlike the Speaker of the House of Commons, is to be “a barometer of consensus.” This means that he can vote on issues and be more directly involved in discussions than his parliamentary counterpart, he said. But while Senate rules allow senators to overrule the Speaker, it is a very rare occurrence, he said. “When a ruling is on the floor, it is rarely challenged,” he said. “This is only the seventh or eighth time this has happened in the history of the Senate. I didn’t think this action was warranted.” He noted that while Senate rules

Man attempted to cross border with hidden travellers in vehicle

Guilty plea for aiding and abetting fugitives A man who was caught trying to cross the border with a pair of fugitives hiding in his car will be sentenced next month in Surrey Provincial Court after pleading guilty to human smuggling. According to a statement issued Monday by the Canada Border Services Agency, Dylan Richard McBee was arrested at the Douglas (Peace Arch) border on March 19, after a man and a woman were found hiding under blankets in his vehicle. McBee had told the

border officer that he was travelling alone. The hidden travellers – reportedly connected to an April 2014 shooting of a Portland police officer and his K-9 partner – were found during a secondary search of the vehicle. One was carrying a knife; both refused to exit the vehicle. The pair were eventually talked out of the vehicle, arrested and returned to the U.S. McBee pleaded guilty on May 11 and is scheduled to be sentenced on July 27. The incident was one

City approves boat tours at pier The White Rock pier will soon be the launching pad for an Eco-tourism business, after city council gave its unanimous approval last month to a proposal from the business owner. Andrew Newman, owner of White Rock Sea Tours, plans to use the public float on the east side of the pier for picking up and dropping off passengers taking part in tours aboard his 12-passenger, 25-foot zodiac. The tours will include whale watching trips, and exploration of Georgia Strait and Semiahmoo Bay, Newman told Peace Arch News. Newman, an 11-year volunteer with the Royal Canadian Marine Search

and Rescue Crescent Beach station, said finishing touches are being done on his vessel and the tours should be up and running within a few weeks. City staff recommended an annual lease fee of $1,000 per season for use of the float – no overnight moorage will be allowed – with the option of renewing the lease after one year.

The proposal was met with excitement from city council June 15, who said they hope it will open doors to other waterfront possibilities. “I think this will be a fantastic way to continue to explore the potential for whale watching or any type of marine wildlife tours,” Coun. Bill Lawrence said. – Melissa Smalley

Plenty worth celebrating

here may be differences of opinion at present on where Canada is heading politically. Some may be sounding the alarm over moves they feel are not only damaging to democracy in Canada, but deleterious to Canada’s international prestige as a guardian of the environment and the perception of Canada’s role – long cherished by the public – as a peacekeeper. Those partisans who confuse the fortunes of political parties with the national interest must remind themselves that dissent is only another manifestation of a deeper caring and love for the country we call home. We can only hope that Canadians are passionate enough about their country to debate all these issues in the coming federal election, and manifest their love of Canada, so evident in red and white flags today, July 1, in attendance at the polls. In the meantime, we turn to celebration of Canada’s 148th birthday as a nation. And there is much to celebrate. Even before Confederation, Canada was a country that established its own independence – not by revolution, but by degrees – and which pursued a separate path in the difficult process of settlement and reconciliation of heritages as North America grew and changed. Although it has had its share of stumbles along the way, Canada won for itself, through blood and toil, a right not to be considered the shadow, or puppet, of any other nation. For all our lapses of stewardship it is still a country of unmatched beauty, of wildernesses that dwarf the imagination and natural wonders that daily give us pause, and reason to reflect on our great fortune. It is still a multicultural, humanist land where neighbours care for neighbours regardless of colour, creed or heritage; where we can play hard and also share enjoyment of our leisure; where we can toil together, not just to fill our own or others’ coffers, but also to make things that much better. For all our grief and strife and the pressures on us to follow paths of hatred, greed and selfishness there are just as many reminders that Canadians are tolerant and giving, kind and accepting and willing to work hard to make our country, and the planet as a whole, a better place. And that, in itself, is well worthy of celebration.

period as a restriction on free speech. The BC Liberal government tried and failed several times to restrict third party spending, largely in response to the million-dollar tirades of the teachers’ union. Former attorney general Wally Oppal used to warn about Americanstyle influence by wealthy interest groups targeting scheduled elections. Their strategy was not so much to keep corporate money out of B.C. politics as to keep it flowing through the BC Liberal Party. This spring the BC Liberal majority passed Bill 20, the Election Amendment Act. Not only did this recognize the freedom of outsiders to weigh in on elections, it also did away with precampaign restrictions on registered political parties and candidates. NDP MLA Leonard Krog warned that this sets the stage for “some mad Wild West show,” with politicians so desperate to raise money they start looking for the B.C. equivalent of renting out the Lincoln bedroom in the White House. The big difference between the precampaign ads for this fall’s federal election and the next provincial vote in 2017 is that corporate and union donations to parties and candidates have been eliminated at the federal level. That means more money available for thirdparty campaigns, but it seems to be fairly well-distributed between the two sides, the Conservatives and everybody else. Here in the Wild West, nothing’s going to change as long as the BC Liberals are in the saddle. Tom Fletcher is legislature reporter and columnist for Black Press. tfletcher@ blackpress.ca

Represent us in person Editor: I attended the Communities and Coal information and all-candidates meeting on June 24 (Coal foes hear from hopefuls, June 26). I’m glad I was there. The event was well-organized and the speakers were excellent. The candidates who spoke, Joy Davies of the Liberal Party and Pixie Hobby from the NDP, were articulate and presented excellent information. Conservative candidate Dianne Watts did not deign to appear, using the lame excuse that the writ had not yet been dropped. The old Dianne Watts, whom I respected as a consensus builder, would have been there, but now that she is a Harperite, sadly, she has been muzzled. I remember similar meetings at the Ocean Park Hall where MP Russ Hiebert was the only candidate who failed to appear. It seems the Harper Conservatives don’t want to talk to the people, they only want to talk to the industrialists. Well, if they don’t want to talk to us, then they don’t deserve to represent us in Parliament. It’s too bad that Watts wasn’t there. She might have learned something. Harvey Ostroff, Surrey

Memorable performances Editor: Re: Quality events already here, June 24 letters. Letter-writer Gina VanDer Meulen is right on when she wrote regarding the following blurb that appeared in you paper a few issues ago. “The problem with a lot of local events is that they’re underfunded,” said Douglas Smith, White Rock Business Improvement Association executive director. “It means they are unable to grow or deliver the kind of quality that is going to grow and resonate with a regional audience. Now we’re in a position to do it properly... so it becomes a sustainable event that everybody knows about and knows that it will be each year.” I find the above-mentioned quote from the Peace Arch News (Summer concert series coming to White Rock, June 12) to be somewhat half-baked and way off the mark. I have lived in the area of White Rock and South Surrey for 40 years and have attended many, if not most, musical performances on the Semiahmoo Peninsula. The White Rock Sea Festival even delivered the Powder Blues Band and Dal Richards, with his full band, which is no small feat. Other than that, Smith seems to be bereft of the fact that local musicians and producers have, time and time again, come up with shows that deliver the quality that he says is lacking in our community. In fact, Gary Comeau and David Sinclair – two names on his list – have participated in such endeavours. I could name more than 50 such

events, but here are just a few to emphasize my point: Trooper at Star of the Sea, more that once. Peninsula Productions have more than a dozen highprofile presentations to their credit. One shouldn’t forget to mention Valdy appearing at Paul Beatty’s Big Blue House more than once. Juno nominee Neil Harnett has produced shows featuring his original music. What about Blue Frog, The White Rock Blues Society, Brickhouse,

The Wheat in the Barley, Alex Browne and the Aristocrats, Heidi McCurdy, Doug Towle (Guitar Player Magazine champion), Jason Mitchell, Medderick, Jordan Carrier? They are all known for participating in memorable performances in recent history. Your paper has done a good job promoting these events and, as a music lover, I greatly appreciate your service in this regard. Anne Walls, Surrey

Armida Hutt left the classroom last summer after 55 years as an educator.

Learning experience Editor: Education, as I see it, has been a world of changes. When I started teaching in 1954, with just Grade 12 and one year of Provincial Normal School in Victoria, I went to the Cassiar Asbestos Mine in Northern B.C. I taught Grades 1-3 in a tworoom school. My classroom was partitioned off at one end of the recreation hall; I had to ask the mine superintendent to close the hall during school hours, as my students and I were learning some very non-instructional language. I then taught at Mile 1202 of the Alaska Highway in a one-room school. My Grade 8 male student kept feeding the pot-bellied stove so we would keep warm – it was up to -40 F at times. I even made my own ‘jelly pad’ so I could duplicate copies. In 1957, my husband, son and I moved to Prince Rupert, where I taught until 1970, in elementary, then junior high, then senior high. We moved to Richmond, my husband having decided to become a teacher, too, at the age of 37. While he attended the UBC’s shopteacher program, I taught French 8-9, then went into counselling. In 1974, I switched to the Delta School District, as we had bought property in South Surrey. In 1981, I became a counsellor at Seaquam Secondary till 1994 when I retired

after 35 years of teaching. Being only 57, and having both a French master of education and a counselling psychology master, I was able to go on the TTOC (Teachers Teaching On Call) list, with Frenchimmersion, counselling, learning assistance and resource rooms. This summer, I am retiring after 55 years of teaching a tremendous, varied group of students. I found students eager to work if it interested them, and eager to learn all about this world we are lucky to live in. It is a world of fantastic changes from an education world of IQs to mixed groupings. From rote learning to group inquiry; from phonetics to sight reading and back again; from memorizing time tables to discovering how math principles really work; and, of course, laptops, iPads, etc. for research purposes. My one regret is the amount of trees we cut now to photocopy materials because of lack of textbooks. I found the students, parents, teachers and administrators very helpful and co-operative – although I did once have to administer the strap back in 1959. New teachers today have a much more difficult task. I will always appreciate and never regret my wonderful years aiding young minds to develop to the best of their abilities. Armida Hutt, Surrey

Expropriation an opportunity Editor: Re: Water negotiations ‘not going well’, June 19. It appears the City of White Rock has wisely sought public approval of the use of expropriation – a forced sale and government takeover – to now quickly acquire the Epcorowned and operated water utility. However, at its June 16 public meeting, the city heard much more than a simple carte-blanche endorsement of expropriation. The city heard that the 2.67 acres at 1454 Oxford St. that the city allowed Epcor to break off from its other utility land holdings and subdivide in May 2013, two months after the city had announced its intention to acquire the water utility, must be included in the assets the city is taking over through expropriation. This parcel of land has been sold for a reported $12 million, subject to the purchaser receiving favourable OCP amendments and rezoning to enable the construction of twin highrise towers of 24 and 21 storeys. But no such amendments and rezoning have happened; the sale is a long ways from being finalized, if ever. This land is still owned by Epcor, and one of the assets obtained when purchased for $9 million in 2005. As such, it must be included among the assets for expropriation. As a matter of principle, Epcor ought to be barred from selling off any of its assets subsequent to the city’s 2013 public announcement of its intention to acquire the water utility. Certainly receiving a fair market value of $20 million for a company that Epcor paid only $9 million for in 2005 should be a sufficient capital gain. The city has a rare opportunity with this cheap utility land to create a lasting public legacy at never-tobe-seen-again rock-bottom prices. Dennis Lypka, White Rock

Save water for emergencies Editor: I walk my dog in various areas, and I have noticed numerous neighbours watering their lawns during the heat of the day – noon to 4 p.m. Don’t they know that wastes a lot of water, because most of it evaporates before it can be absorbed? Don’t they know that watering restrictions kicked in on June 1, and that those restrictions are: evennumbered addresses may sprinkle lawns 4 a.m. to 9 a.m. Monday, Wednesday and Saturday; oddnumbered addresses may sprinkle lawns 4 a.m. to 9 a.m. Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday? Don’t they know that they could end up paying a fine of $200-$300 for not complying? How ironic would it be if their house burned to the ground because the fire department ran out of water.

Mounties say that to date, neither intended victim has been identified or come forward to file a police report.

An air quality advisory issued Saturday by Metro Vancouver due to high concentrations of ground-level ozone ended Monday morning. The advisory – the first of the summer – applied in eastern parts of Metro Vancouver and the Fraser Valley as hot weather broke temperature records in many areas. Cooler temperatures and an increase in cloud cover has since resulted in less sunshine producing ozone, according to Ken Reid, Metro’s superintendent of environmental monitoring. During advisory periods, residents are urged to avoid strenuous outdoor activities, especially the elderly, infants and those with respiratory conditions, and seek air-conditioned indoor spaces. – Jeff Nagel

ears before Louise Hutchinson moved to White Rock with her husband, Don, in the late 1970s, she unknowingly spent time at one of the Semiahmoo Peninsula’s oldest landmarks. As a seven-year-old growing up in Vancouver, she and her siblings had never experienced the many joys of summer camp. That is, until their mother took a summer job as ‘waterfront director’ at Camp Alexandra in 1947. “We came out as a family, and it was just Louise wonderful,” Hutchinson Hutchinson, a former White Rock city councillor, recalled. “We lived in the huts and got to swim and have bon fires and marshmallow roasts. We had never done anything quite like that.” It wasn’t until decades later, when she returned to the Crescent

Beach community hub with young children of her own that Hutchinson realized she had been there before. “To come back after all those years and to have those memories triggered, it was so amazing,” she said, noting the setting hasn’t changed much since she first spent time there. “The cabins are exactly the same, I totally remember it.” Hutchinson’s memories of Camp Alex are just some of the many stories that staff at Alexandra Neighbourhood House are hoping to collect leading up to the camp’s 100th anniversary next year. The storytelling project, launched last month, invites anyone who may have camped, played, learned or volunteered at Camp Alexandra to share their memories in an effort to highlight the impact Camp Alex has had on families over the past several decades, according to Neil Fernyhough, manager of community programs. “We know that there are a lot of people in Metro Vancouver who have a history with the camp in some way or another,” Fernyhough said. “We want to be able to get those stories down on paper as a

way of telling the story, not only of Alexandra Neighbourhood House and Camp Alexandra, but of Crescent Beach in general.” Some of the stories that are collected will be told on video, to be posted online, Fernyhough said, while others may be included in an artifact display that staff are hoping to put together in

partnership with Surrey Archives. There are a number of other anniversary projects in the works, Fernyhough said, though the scope of projects and celebrations will be dependent on a government heritage grant that Alex House has applied for. Some of the things staff are hoping to undertake include

historic walking tours around Crescent Beach; a travelling historic exhibit, expected to be on display in three or four locations around South Surrey next year; and a series of community engagement events examining four social themes and how they were dealt with 100 years ago, how they’re dealt with now and how they are expected to be dealt with in 100 years. The themes, Fernyhough said, include First Nation relationships and reconciliation, environment and emerging eco-economy, newcomer settlement and safety, protection and visibility of children. “All of those four issues were treated very differently 100 years ago, and they’re going to be treated very differently 100 years from now,” Fernyhough said. To top off next year’s celebration, Fernyhough said the camp is planning a large homecoming event, with details to be determined. Anyone who is interested in sharing their stories of time spent at Camp Alexandra can call Fernyhough at 604-535-0015 (ext. 236) or email alexhousestories@ gmail.com

My partner SNORES and it is driving me CRAZY. What options do we have so that we can stay together?

Help your partner realize that this is their problem. Most of the time this is the hardest hurdle to overcome. Ask them about their restfulness in the morning. Are they often tired and in need of a nap later in the day because they are so exhausted? Are they operating a vehicle? Do they know that a lack of sleep put them at a higher risk for weight gain, high blood pressure and diabetes? Help them realize that you are interested in their health and not just a good night’s sleep for you. Whatever you do, they have to want a solution. Talk with your Doctor. Snoring is a symptom of a partial obstruction of the airway but not all snoring is the same. Habitual snoring may be a sign that your partner has Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA). Take a Home Sleep Test. Worn in the comfort of your our bed, this is necessary for a sleep physician to diagnose OSA. Try a CPAP machine: This is a blower that forces air into your nose and or mouth and prevents obstruction during sleep. Talk to a Dentist. Those with training in the field of dental sleep medicine can fit you for an oral appliance. These are similar to orthodontic retainers in size and function by moving the lower jaw forward, naturally opening the airway to help eliminate snoring.

The Cooler Kings Nobody knows how to throw a summer dance party of R&B, funk, blues and rock better than groove-masters The Cooler Kings. Act fast to get tickets for their latest White Rock show, ready to blow the roof off the intimate venue Blue Frog Studios (1328 Johnston Rd.) on Saturday, July 11. It’s basically a standing-room-anddancing-only show, with Alex Browne high-top tables and a very limited number of seats in a first-come, firstserved basis. But no one is going to want to sit out the music of this eight-piece show band, which brings together multiple-threat talents for a singular, dynamic sound. It starts with the vocals of Willy Ward (formerly with the R&B All-Stars and The Powder Blues) and Renee Dora Cook, whose violin stylings are interwoven with the funky grooves of Ward and Elliott Clarkson’s horn section. Adding to the appeal is a powerhouse combination of keyboardists Bill Brooks and Jim Widdifield, augmented by the silky guitar sound of Leonard Bodin, and underscored by the driving rhythm of Paulo Silva on bass and Paul Sorbara on drums. For ticket information, go to www. bluefrogstudios.ca

of avoiding disappointment for this popular annual event. The Importance of Being Earnest, directed by Beach House founders Candace Radcliffe and Rick Harmon, is an elaborately-costumed, farcical comedy of dalliance among the British upper classes. Munsch Upon A Time, directed by Elgin Park Players alumnus Courtney Shields, is another delightful collage of stories by popular children’s author Robert Munsch.

Funk, blues, R&B and rock band The Cooler Kings are set to bring their groovy, dance-inducing show to Blue Frog Studios (1328 Johnston Rd.) July 11 for a nearly standing-room-only show.

Beach House Theatre Beach House Theatre is running true to form. The company has already sold a large block of tickets for its fourth season of live summer theatre in Crescent Beach, with phone lines and online sales jumping as soon as the box office opened last Thursday. The company will present Oscar Wilde’s masterpiece 1895 comedy of manners The Importance of Being Earnest Aug. 11-16, while the family-oriented second show,

Munsch Upon A Time, will run Aug. 12-15 in Beach House’s state-of-the-art tent auditorium, next to the beach on Blackie Spit. Production manager Sarah Adams reports that, in just one day, 50 per cent of all available tickets for ‘Earnest’ and 20 per cent of all available tickets for ‘Munsch’ were spoken for. The good news, she said, is that – while some days are close to selling out – there are still tickets available for both of the shows. But booking quickly is the best guarantee

Live theatre fans should also make sure to book tickets early for another summer treat – Peninsula Productions’ The 39 Steps. The international hit, a deliberately absurd stage version of Alfred Hitchcock’s classic 1935 spy thriller, moves into Coast Capital Playhouse (1532 Johnston Rd.) July 8-25, during the summer hiatus of White Rock Players Club. Reinvented in 2005 by Patrick Barlow, it’s a perverse exercise in comedic minimalism – just four actors playing all 150 roles in an adaptation of John Buchan’s classic novel. Directed by well-known Vancouver man of the theatre Matthew Bissett, The 39 Steps, promises a trunkload of laughs with barebones props and sets, and a versatile cast adept in physical humour. Tickets ($25; seniors/children $20) are available from www.peninsulaproductions. org or 604-536-7535.

David Rhodes on the mound for Seattle squad at Arizona championships

White Rock pitcher honoured at US tournament Melissa Smalley Staff Reporter

A young White Rock pitcher turned some heads down south last week, earning himself recognition at a national championship tournament. David Rhodes, 15, was on the mound for the Seattle Selects, who were playing in the USA Baseball 17U Championship in Arizona, and was named Pitcher of the Day June 23. Rhodes was one of only eight players in the weeklong tournament to be recognized out of close to 2,500 taking part from

across the western United States. “On the mound, Seattle Select’s David Rhodes has been dealing, and opposing hitters can’t find an answer,” a USA Baseball release said. “Rhodes has thrown 11 innings and only allowed one earned, while striking out 11.” Rhodes also went five for eight at bat, racking up three RBIs and a stolen base. The Selects ended up with a 4-4 record at the championship tourney. Rhodes’ father, Mike, told Peace Arch News Monday that his son was likely one of the youngest taking part in the 140GRILLED MINI POTATOES 500 g/1.1 lb

team tournament, making his Pitcher of the Day honour even more impressive. “He would have been one of the only 15 year olds in the U17 tournament,” Mike said. “He did very well.” During the spring season, Rhodes – a student at Langley Fine Arts – plays on a senior division team for Whalley Little League. He’s been making the trips south to Seattle during the summer months to play for the Selects since 2011. From 2008-2011, Rhodes played little league in White Rock.

Degano signs with Yankees Nick Greenizan Sports Reporter

Former White Rock Tritons’ pitcher Jeff Degano is officially a New York Yankee. Degano, 22, was drafted by the Yankees in the second round of the Major League Baseball draft in early June, and officially signed with the club last week. According to the YES broadcast network, which is owned by the Yankees, Degano’s contract included a $650,000 signing bonus. When he was drafted, he told Peace Arch News being selected by the Yankees was “a dream come true.” “There’s a lot of history with that team, and everyone’s a Yankees fan growing up, so it’s pretty special,” he said. Since being drafted – and while details of his contract were being negotiated – Degano has been at the team’s training facilities in Tampa, Fla. The Peninsula’s other Major League Baseball draft pick, UBC pitcher Alex Webb – who, like Degano, is a former White Rock Triton – has not yet signed with the San Diego Padres, who selected him in the 36th round. Webb still has college eligibility left and can eschew a pro contract and return to UBC for one more season, then re-enter the draft next year. After being picked by the Padres June 10, Webb told PAN he was undecided about whether or not he’d turn pro.

OBITUARIES

MARY THELMA McMURDO (“Timmie”) (Nee Milsted) June 7, 1921 to June 20, 2015

Born to Alfred and Minnie Milsted on 7 June 1921 in South Vancouver passed away 20 June 2015. “Timmie” was the youngest and last survivor of the five Milsted sisters Beatrice (“Beattie” Scott) Florence (“Flossie” Brown) Margaret (“Babs” Udy) Gertrude (“Gertie” Coltart). The Milsted sisters were noted for their ability to harmonize, music and singing were a big part of their lives. Thelma’s singing may have ended but the harmonies live on through her family; son Brian (Sue) McMurdo, White Rock; daughter Barb (Doug) Smith, South Surrey; daughter Karen (Fulvio) Scrigner, South Surrey. Thelma (“GG”) was loved by her eight grandchildren, Jeff (Kelly) McMurdo, South Surrey, Ben (Rachel) McMurdo, Australia, Kim (Grant) Gibson, Australia, Jill (Kyle) Stevens South Surrey, Alexis Smith, South Surrey, Lindsay (Jarrad) Smith, South Surrey, Kandice Scrigner, South Surrey, and Karley (Gord) Scrigner, South Surrey. She was very proud of her 10 Great Grandchildren, Abbey & Max McMurdo, Sam & Alice McMurdo, Angus, Josie and Jack Gibson, Ellen Stevens, Julian Dean, and Brady Edmondson. Thelma’s many nieces and nephews will all fondly remember her. Thelma married Robert (Bob) McMurdo, (predeceased 1993) the love of her life, in Calgary in 1943 prior to his RCAF deployment in WWII. Living in South Vancouver, Thelma and Bob built a home and a life at 27 E. 60th and all three of their children were born in Vancouver. Family gatherings with all the Milsteds and McMurdos were a regular occurrence and singing was mandatory. Homemaking and hospitality were Thelma’s careers. After Bob retired they moved to South Surrey near to son Brian in White Rock. Barb, Karen and families soon followed to South Surrey. In 1994 she moved to Cambridge II apartments and made many lasting friendships. Thelma was independent and still driving at 90. “GG” enjoyed Canada Cup from her spot along the first base line. She loved bowling, golfing, socializing and watching her grandchildren’s sporting events until illness left her requiring care. In 2013 she moved to 2nd floor Weatherby Care at PAH. The family want to thank the caregivers and support personnel at Weatherby 2nd floor for their dedication and caring for Thelma. A Celebration of Life honouring Thelma McMurdo (and Bob) is being planned. Donations to Peace Arch Hospital or Weatherby would be appreciated in lieu of flowers.

LUMB, Ursula Mae Sept. 19, 1927 - June 1, 2015 Our Mom and Nan passed away peacefully on Monday, June 1st, 2015 after a lifetime full of happiness with her late husband Bill and close, loving family. In our sadness, we are comforted to know that she is once again with our Father and Papa, after 64 wonderful years of marriage. She will be greatly missed by her loving daughters Colleen and Lee; her adoring granddaughters Tara, Whitney and Carly; son-in-laws Dennis and Brian; grandson-in-law Troy; brother Lorne Misouri; and her extended family members and many friends. Our Mom and Nan will be remembered for her great devotion to her family and her unconditional love. Her many years of farming and teaching on the Prairies, before retiring to White Rock, led to her being an unparalleled baker, avid reader, gardener and strong supporter of her family. We feel truly blessed to have had such a wonderful woman in our lives and our family knows that Nan will be watching over us forever. Her wishes were for a private, family service. In lieu of flowers, please plant something beautiful in your garden and think of Nan & Papa when it blooms.
