Man killed during home invasion ▼ RANDOM SHOOTING LEAVES 42-YEAR-OLD DEAD AND A MAN CHARGED WITH MURDER KEVIN DIAKIW

Condolences poured in Monday for a 42-year-old man who was shot dead during a home invasion in Cloverdale on Sunday night. Police say Colin Hill confronted a 22-year-old man trying to break into his home in the 16500-block of 64 Avenue just before midnight. During the confrontation, the suspect shot and killed Hill. The attacker then fled in a stolen vehicle. At just before 2 a.m. Monday, Burnaby Mounties were called to an apartment by witnesses who said they saw a man with a gun attempting to break in. Burnaby

RCMP arrested the man, who police believe is the same man who shot and killed Hill. He has been charged with second-degree murder, but police would not name him Monday. Police say the suspect is a Surrey resident with an extensive criminal record. He was expected to appear in Surrey Provincial Court on Tuesday, after The Leader’s press deadline. Hours after the tragedy, an outpouring of grief was posted Colin Hill on Hill’s Facebook page. “I’m shocked and saddened by the news of your tragic passing,” wrote Ryan Aberdeen. “You were a great person and I’m glad we got to have many laughs together. Our thoughts and prayers are with your family.” Longtime friend Lowell Jordan said he’d been friends with Hill since elementary school. “I am devastated. A successful realtor

and wonderful family man,” Jordan wrote. “I will miss you dearly my old friend.” Chief Supt. Bill Fordy offered his condolences to the family of the victim. “There is no question that these are the most painful moments that a family can endure,” said Fordy. “For police, they are also the hardest.” Fordy said he is personally enraged at the senseless loss of life. “As a Surrey resident, a father, and the officer in charge of the Surrey RCMP, I am very protective of this community,” he said. “And dealing with violent crime is my top priority.” He said Hill’s death is not related to the spate of shootings in Surrey and Delta since March. Anyone with information about Sunday night’s shooting is asked to call the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team tip line at 1-877-551-4448 (IHIT).

Targeted pharmacies cut off PharmaCare ▼ DOZENS HAD BEEN RED-FLAGGED FOR VIOLATIONS SUCH AS KICKBACKS TO ADDICTS JEFF NAGEL

A patient holds a bottle of methadone dispensed from a pharmacy in Surrey. The practices of many methadone-dispensing pharmacies in B.C. have raised concerns within government and the College of Pharmacists of B.C. FILE PHOTO

A crackdown by the province has led to 29 Lower Mainland pharmacies closing or exiting the government-funded PharmaCare program after being redflagged for various improprieties. The health ministry had notified 46 pharmacies in May that they’d be booted from PharmaCare if they failed to swiftly explain why they should be able to continue billing the publicly funded drug plan. Most of those pharmacies have since terminated their PharmaCare enrolment or been removed, including 12 in Vancouver, seven in Surrey, four in Burnaby, two each in Richmond and North Vancouver, and one each in Maple Ridge and New Westminster. A few had previously been terminated last December. Medicine bought at now-excluded pharmacies that remain open is no longer covered by PharmaCare. Another dozen pharmacies run by two chains can continue to submit claims but are subject to special conditions. The health ministry has not released specific reasons why each of the pharmacies involved was targeted. Many were dispensing methadone and may have engaged in improper

business practices, such as kickbacks to retain drug-addicted patients. Billing irregularities were a concern in other cases, including improper filing of drug information for patients into the province’s prescription-tracking network, potentially risking their health. In other cases, false information had been provided by operators on their enrolment applications. A recent regulation change allows the government to refuse to pay pharmacies with a history of suspect practices and imposes greater disclosure requirements. A provincial review of the methadone maintenance program this year found rapid growth in billings for the drug used to counter symptoms of withdrawal from addiction to heroin or other narcotics. Methadone is now PharmaCare’s second-highest drug cost at $44 million a year for more than 15,000 addicts.

An air quality advisory for Metro Vancouver and the Fraser Valley due to wildfire smoke blowing into the region has been lifted. Lower Mainland residents are breathing easier because of more favourable wind conditions from a change in the weather pattern. “We’ve seen wind coming from a cleaner direction,” said Julie Saxton, an air quality planner for Metro Vancouver. “That wind has been quite strong in places. That has brought us some cleaner air and helped move the smoke out of our area.” The advisory was first issued last Sunday for Metro Vancouver and unprecedented levels

Smoky air provided for spectacular sunsets last week. BOAZ JOSEPH of fine particulate three to four times the region’s objective were measured at several test stations over the initial 24 hours. “This has been a very unusual and difficult week for everybody here,” Saxton said. “The concentrations of fine particulate matter we saw, especially in the early part of the week on Sunday and Monday, were among the highest I’ve

ever seen for this area.” The Fraser Valley was added to the areas under advisory Monday and elevated levels of ground-level ozone were listed as an additional factor starting Wednesday. Saxton said the arrival of cloud and cooler temperatures by Friday also helped stop the generation of ground-level ozone, which is caused when nitrogen oxides and volatile organic compounds (from vehicle emissions, solvents and vegetation) react in sunlight on hot days. It’s impossible to say whether the smoke will be back in the days ahead, Saxton said, noting wildfire activity and wind direction are both unpredictable. Residents can get real-time data on air quality and shortterm forecasts online at bcairquality.ca or airmap.ca. Fraser Health spokesperson Tasleem Juma said area hospitals saw higher than usual numbers of patients treated for respiratory difficulties.

Police hunting for serial robber ▶ MAN BELIEVED TO HAVE COMMITTED FIVE ROBBERIES, FOUR WITHIN JUST OVER AN HOUR OF ONE ANOTHER KEVIN DIAKIW

Police are looking into a series of Surrey robberies believed to have been carried out by the same person. On Thursday, July 9, four robberies were committed on Fraser Highway in a span of 75 minutes. They began just after midnight at a restaurant at Fraser Highway and 160 Street, then 10 minutes later a gas station on 156 Street and Fraser Highway was hit. Forty minutes later a taxi driver was robbed, then 22 minutes later, a convenience store close to the initial robbery was struck. The following morning, at just after midnight, a fifth robbery of a convenience store near the same location occurred. Police believe the same suspect is responsible for all five robberies. The suspect is described as a white man, approximately 5’8” tall, with a thin build and possibly skin blemishes and teeth in poor condition.

He was seen with what was described as a black semi-automatic pistol. Surveillance video shows the suspect and a grey sedan, possibly a 2000 to 2006 Chrysler 300, used as a possible getaway vehicle. “Public safety is paramount and thankfully the victims in these robberies have not been harmed,” said Surrey RCMP Cpl. Robbery suspect Scotty Schumann. “They did the right thing by not resisting the suspect’s demands.” Surrey RCMP considers this person to be armed and dangerous. If you see the suspect, do not try to approach him, but call 9-1-1 right away. Anyone with information is asked to contact the Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502. Ask for Surrey RCMP Const. Simran Grewal and quote file #201597302. To remain anonymous, call or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS or leave a tip at www. solvecrime.ca

Jail time for Surrey stabbing ▶ WILLIAM ENGEBRETSEN STABBED JEREMY MCLELLAN TO DEATH IN 2012 SHEILA REYNOLDS

A Surrey man has been sent to jail for fatally stabbing a younger man to death in the apartment the pair shared with the deceased’s mother.

William Arnold Engebretsen, 56, was sentenced in B.C. Supreme Court in New Westminster on Wednesday (July 8) to four years prison. He received credit for the 105 days he spent in pretrial custody, leaving three years, seven months remaining in his sentence. Police were called to an apartment near 128 Street and 95 Avenue on Nov. 25, 2012,

where 35-year-old Jeremy McLellan was suffering from stab wounds. McLellan died in hospital. Police at the time said Engebretsen lived at the home with McLellan and McLellan’s mom. Engebretsen was originally charged with second-degree murder, but pleaded guilty to the lesser charge of manslaughter in late May. He has no prior criminal record.

VIEWPOINT

The Surrey-Nor th Delta Leader Wednesd ay July 15 2015

No apocalypse – yet Everyone – well those in the media and on social media anyway – is watching for an apocalypse to prove that climate change is truly happening. The truth is more subtle. While this year’s strange weather patterns and unusual wildfire season are upsetting, scientists say we should keep an eye on long-term trends, not the short-term aberrations. One area where this is particularly evident is in the study of salmon habits. Scientists have found that trends of ocean warming and cooling can mask the effects of climate change, with a cooler phase starting now. But at the same time, scientists are also noticing some salmon species are moving further north, even into Alaska, and some Fraser River salmon are returning early, which can affect spawning survival.

Another report issued last week found that changes in ocean physics and chemistry brought on by climate change will eventually kill off some salmon, reducing the food fishery and making salmon even more expensive than it is now. While there are those who say we can’t afford to eat salmon anyway, the warning should be heeded because of the importance of the iconic fish to the ecosystem. Salmon are a keystone species, critical to the survival of other forms of life. They fertilize our forests, feed wildlife and, like the proverbial canary in a coal mine, can inform us about our own future by changes in their habits. If the oceans are becoming too warm for salmon

RAESIDE

and the fish are returning early, local creeks will need to be maintained as cool, protected safe havens. How can we help? We can conserve water and electricity so more water can be released in the Fraser River. We can stop pouring noxious substances down storm drains and discourage development from being placed too close to creeks so trees and foliage, which moderate temperatures and water flows, and feed rivers and creeks with their nutrients, are preserved. It may be smoky and hot but that doesn’t mean the apocalypse is here. If we learn nothing else from this overheated summer, we should at least learn to be more sensitive and protective of our natural surroundings.

Is B.C. liquefied natural gas real? Yes BC VIEWS ▼ Tom Fletcher

The B.C. legislature is back in session this week, a rare summer sitting to approve a 25-year project agreement for the first large-scale liquefied natural gas (LNG) project in northern B.C. Finance Minister Mike de Jong released the lengthy legal agreement prior to the debate, saying this step should remove any doubt that an international investment group led by Petronas of Malaysia intends to go ahead. With billions invested in upstream resources and buyers waiting at home, the Pacific Northwest LNG group includes Chinese state corporation Sinopec, Indian Oil Corp., Japan Petroleum Exploration Corp. and Petroleum Brunei. The most contentious issue is the government’s intention to protect the investors from “discriminatory” tax and regulations for the life of the project. The government insists these sorts of long-term cost certainty agreements are commonplace, and don’t affect provincial and federal taxes or environmental regulations unless they single

out LNG operations. Future governments can raise corporate tax rates, carbon tax or enter into a cap-and-trade system. Ottawa can scrap capital cost allowances that were recently extended to LNG producers, which is significant because Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau has indicated he would get rid of what he calls subsidies to fossil fuels. Both the province and Ottawa allow capital cost write-offs against corporate tax to attract investment. B.C. attracted a lot of gas drilling rigs from Alberta with tax breaks for deep drilling. The B.C. government invited comparisons with Western Australia LNG producers, and NDP researchers did just that. They noted that Australia’s Gorgon and North West Shelf LNG projects have written provisions that local employment and local suppliers will get preference. Those are absent in B.C., along with apprenticeship guarantees for LNG. “There was hard bargaining by the companies, and certainly the premier went into this negotiation in a very

weak position, having to deliver on her extravagant and grandiose promises from the election,” NDP critic Bruce Ralston said. “The companies did well. Whether the citizens of British Columbia did well is certainly an open question.” Green Party MLA Andrew Weaver painted himself into a corner, having spent the last two years dismissing the B.C. LNG industry as a fantasy that will never come to pass, strictly on economic grounds. He has since branded the Petronas deal, a template for any future projects, a “generational sellout.” Another big player with gas-well investments in northeast B.C. is Shell, with a proposal for Kitimat. Its prospects have improved since it took over British Gas Group, which had its own LNG intentions here. Another group led by Altagas remains on track to ship LNG from its Douglas Channel site before the end of the decade. It’s important to remember that

without LNG exports, B.C.’s natural gas industry will shrink rapidly after 50 years of increasingly significant revenues from sales to the U.S. Leaving aside all the political positioning around the province’s largest private investment to date, if this doesn’t go ahead we will all feel the effects. De Jong had a blunt response when asked what the province gets in return for all its guarantees of low tax environment: “Their money.” At peak construction, Pacific Northwest LNG will need as many as 4,500 workers, with 500 or more operations jobs depending on how far it expands. The finance ministry forecasts that once Pacific Northwest LNG is up and running, it represents $9 billion in revenues to the province over 10 years, including gas royalties and taxes. That’s more than taxpayers can expect from the entire forest industry. Tom Fletcher is legislature reporter and columnist for Black Press.

Wildlife here first ▼ WHY DO WE KILL ANIMALS FOR FOLLOWING THEIR NATURAL INSTINCTS?

A few years ago, I read about an aboriginal senior citizen in Alberta who had insisted animal control officials not disturb a couple of adult bears that were invading her garbage containers. As fate would have it, a few days later those bears, somehow, got into physical contact with the woman and mortally mauled her. When I read about it, I felt admiration for that woman. I believed that she respected nature so much, especially animal life, that she in essence sacrificed her life for their lives and freedom, for bears had been on that land well before even Canada’s aboriginal peoples. When are we going to clearly acknowledge the great injustices being committed against wild animals (in this case stray adult bears and their cubs near Port Hardy, B.C.) by human encroachment via deforestation and development on the animals’ natural home grounds? Too many bears, and other potentially dangerous wild animals, are being killed when they behave in a threatening manner towards humans. Thus we’re ready and willing to kill them when we could tranquilize and relocate them all, alive and well. But it appears that humanity’s superior-minded nature allows our collective conscience to simply shoot dead such animals for reacting in their natural, predatory manner. Frank Sterle Jr.

▼ BAD TIMING FOR FLUSHING In this time of extreme water shortage (we get fined if caught watering our lawns outside of designated days) it seems incredible that the city’s parks department can waste thousands (if not millions) of litres of water to flush water mains. Is it not possible to do water main flushing during the winter months when the reservoirs are full and water is plentiful instead of now when we are being faced with shortages? Robert Gendur

Having trouble managing your Diabetes? Would you like a Diabetes Coach?

▼ THANKS TO FIRST RESPONDERS AND HEALTH CARE PROFESSIONALS

The University of Victoria and Fraser Health are conducting a study to evaluate the effectiveness of peer coaches for persons with type 2 diabetes. This research study is funded by the Lawson Foundation of Canada. Interested persons must be adults with type 2 diabetes living in the Fraser Health Region and able to speak English or Punjabi.

Recently I slipped while playing with my grandson and landed on concrete pavers. Blood was everywhere and I couldn’t see the damage to my eye. We called 911 and within five minutes the fire department was there and a few minutes later the ambulance arrived and transported me to Surrey Memorial Hospital. I was triaged within minutes and sent to acute care. A little while later, a surgeon took me into a room, cleaned my eye area and informed me I needed about eight stitches for my eye and X-rays for my knees. I have never had a stitch in all of my 63 years and was very nervous. A nurse came in to prep me, clean the massive amounts of blood in my hair and use a special road rash scrub brush to remove the debris from my knees . All the while I am trying not to cry, she was so gentle. My eye got stitched, X-rays taken and then my knees were bandaged up. I am absolutely amazed at all the care and attention I received and the professionalism of the fire fighters, paramedics, staff, nurses, technicians and the surgeon who gave me four needles and tried to comfort me as he was administering the freezing. I am so glad I live in

Surrey and thank you to everyone who helped along the way, especially the fire fighters who helped calm my seven-year-old grandson, who only could see blood everywhere and was so worried about his grandmom. Thank you again Surrey!

The purpose of the study is to determine whether Diabetes Coaches can assist persons with type 2 diabetes to better manage their condition. Interested persons will be paired with a trained diabetes coach and participate in a weekly telephone conversation with their coach for a sixmonth period. For more information please contact: Suzanne (Study Coordinator) at University of Victoria at 604-940-8973.

From lake to river to sea ▶ THE 2015 PULLING TOGETHER CANOE JOURNEY ENDS IN SURREY AFTER EIGHT DAYS ON THE WATER

▶ “When you’re out there, everyone else is relying on you and you’re relying on everyone else.”

ALEX BROWNE

As the first canoe pulled level with White Rock pier, after rounding the breakwater, it was in hailing distance of strollers and sightseers on the pier. “It’s good to see the war canoes out again,” one called out. “These aren’t war canoes,” came the voice of one the paddlers below, chuckling, as they maintained a steady pace heading for the beach. Indeed as, one-by-one, some 21 flag-decorated canoes came to rest on the shore, and paddlers alighted and pulled them, with the help of some bystanders, further up the beach, it was clear that this was a moment, far from thought of confrontation, of quiet contemplation and satisfaction at successful teamwork. The arrival at the pier around noon on July 10 marked the end of the next-to-last leg of the 2015 Pulling Together Canoe Journey – an eight-day, 160-kilometre trip involving representatives of many B.C. First Nations along with paddlers from several police forces including the RCMP and the Vancouver Police Department, and CN Rail, a major sponsor of the event. It was a chance to enjoy a quiet lunch with friends and family – and rest before the final leg of the journey, paddling the short distance to the Semiahmoo First Nation lands for the ceremonial arrival and an evening of feasting and celebration.

CONST. TROY DERRICK

The first of 21 canoes in the journey gather for their final ceremony at the Semiahmoo First Nation.

It was also an opportunity to chat informally with Mayor Wayne Baldwin and other members of White Rock council who had come to the beach to welcome the canoeists. And it was also a chance, as Const. Troy Derrick, Surrey RCMP First Nations Policing officer confessed, for him to slip back to the detachment for a shave and to get cleaned up prior to the welcoming ceremonies at Semiahmoo for which he would don the dress red serge of the force. He’d been paddling with the canoes

since this year’s journey started, on July 2, at Harrison Lake in the territory of the Sts’ailes First Nation. The route of the canoeists had passed through Sumas and down the Fraser to the Lower Mainland, also including Deas Island and Tsawwassen, before heading to Crescent Beach and then to Semiahmoo Bay. “We travelled three kinds of water, from the lake to the river and then to the Salish Sea,” he said. “It was a good paddle,” he added, talking about the most recent segment of the trip.

We started from Crescent around 8:30 a.m. – it was easy.” The Pulling Together Canoe Journey, which began in 2001, traces it’s roots back to a 1997 vision quest organized by now-retired RCMP Staff Sgt. Ed Hill, in which officers and First Nations paddlers visited many nations down the coast of B.C. For Derrick, the journey, in which he has continued on page 11

â&#x2013;ś CANOE JOURNEY SYMBOLIC OF A POSITIVE, COOPERATIVE WAY OF LIFE from page 10

participated for the past nine years, is doubly significant â&#x20AC;&#x201C; both as an RCMP member and as someone of First Nations heritage, from the Gitxsan Nation. For him itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a shared experience of two minority groups â&#x20AC;&#x201C; both First Nations and police â&#x20AC;&#x201C; who are both perceived through stereotypical images perpetuated by media. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is only the second time the canoes have put in here in the last 100 years,â&#x20AC;? he noted. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very significant. For a long time anything like this would have been illegal.â&#x20AC;? But this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s journey was also about individuals â&#x20AC;&#x201C; including at-risk First Nations youth â&#x20AC;&#x201C; challenging themselves, while being part of a larger group, he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are about 500 people involved in the journey, but also 500 journeys involved,â&#x20AC;? he

Paddlers make their way towards the Semiahmoo First Nation reserve. EVAN SEAL said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s theme is Heal Thy Ways â&#x20AC;&#x201C; healthy ways for the total group, but also heal-thy-ways, for the individual.â&#x20AC;? Derrick said the journey is, in many ways, symbolic of a positive, cooperative way of life that can bring together many different groups and nations. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re out there, everyone else is relying on you and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re relying on everyone else.â&#x20AC;?

Semiahmoo First Nations councillor Roxanne Charles, who was lead paddler of her own canoe for several segments of the journey, pointed with pride to the fact that SFN had three canoes in the event. She said the trip was eased by being billeted with the Stsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ailes and Kwantlen first nations for several days, while Semiahmoo hosted the paddlers over a five day period.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;The youth involved are doing amazing â&#x20AC;&#x201C; they feel totally at home in the canoes,â&#x20AC;? she said. She also acknowledged the participation of the Department of Fisheries and Oceans and CN Rail to this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s journey. â&#x20AC;&#x153;CN made a huge contribution to Pulling Together as well as helping Semiahmoo host this year,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s neat to see everyone building strong relationships.â&#x20AC;?

Team Canada was all but untouchable in the Futures Gold (U19) division at the Canadian Open Fastpitch International Championship. The Junior National team, which will compete at the Junior Women’s World Softball Championship from August 9-15 in Oklahoma City, surrendered just three runs in five playoff games while winning the Futures championship. They clinched the title Sunday evening with a 7-0 victory over the Delta Heat ’97 In 10 playoff and round robin games, Team Canada was a perfect 10-0 (won-loss) with a runs for-against aggregate of 78-8. In the Championship game Sunday, Taylor Lundrigan hit a two-run single in the bottom of the first inning to put Canada up 2-0. Emma Entzminger with a triple and Alisha Welch with a double drove in two runs each in the bottom of the second inning. Entzminger doubled to score a run in the sixth inning, ending the game on the

As Surrey Storm ’98 catcher Anya Predojevic chases a loose ball, Megan Smith of the White Rock Renegades ’99 makes it home safely during a Futures Gold playoff game Saturday at the Canadian Open Fastpitch International Championship at Softball City.

Entzminger led the way offensively with a triple, a double, a single and three runs batted in. Canada’s closest game of the tournament was a 2-1 semifinal win over the White Rock Renegades ’97 Saturday evening. Holly Speers of Surrey singled to score Courtney Gilbert for a 1-0 Canada lead in the first inning, but the Renegades tied it with three consecutive two-out singles in the bottom half of the inning. In the top of the

events inning, Brielle McCullough singled to score Maude Sigouin from second base, giving Canada the one-run victory. The White Rock Renegades ’00 team won all nine games it played to become champions in the Showcase (U16) Gold division. After five round robin victories and three playoff wins, the Renegades stopped Surrey Storm ’01 7-2 in Sunday afternoon’s championship game. “Going in, we expected to do well. It was a great team performance,” said Renegades coach Rick Leche. “We got great pitching from everybody – each one of our pitchers had at least

one complete game – and the thing we’re most proud of is our team defence.” White Rock allowed just 16 runs in the nine games. They carried a 3-2 lead into the sixth inning Sunday, before scoring four times to break the game open. “We scored one in the first inning, then just kept chipping away and putting the pressure on them, and then that big inning certainly helped,” said Leche. “We ran into some tough competition along the way, and those guys gave us a heckuva run.” Storm ’01 was seeded fifth for the 12-team playoff with a 3-2 record.

But as of last weekend, PACWEST wasn’t so sure there would be one more season for KPU Eagles teams. And uncertainty is the reason why. “I don’t know if they know how their athletes and coaches will respond,” said PACWEST president Bruce Hunter Sunday. “If you were recruited to play there, are you going to be super happy going to a program that will shut down after a year?” Members of PACWEST were scheduled to meet

involved in varsity athletics at KPU. On May 29, the men’s basketball team announced five new recruits had filled out its roster for the upcoming season. And less than three weeks ago, KPU Eagles Director of Athletics and Recreation David Kent announced Mandy Botham of Prince George had been appointed head coach of the women’s basketball team and the first of two summer tryout sessions was set for Thursday (July 16). “We had a hiring that got caught in all this, and I feel terrible about this,” said Fee.

CIS (Canadian Interuniversity Sports). At the time, he said that goal was part of the reason he was hired. “It would have cost $6.7 million once we were athletically ready,” said Fee. “And we’re not there competitively within PACWEST. Our teams are not at the top.” Where the $750,000 that currently funds varsity athletics will go has still to be determined, and students will have a say. “We’ll have town hall discussions at all campuses with all students asking what they want,” said Fee, noting intramurals and club team sports are possibilities. “We’re not getting out of sports, we’re getting out of varsity sports.”

out much difficulty, which contributes to the uncertainty. “In this situation, we’re looking at various possibilities. They (KPU) would like to play this year, and meet their commitments for this season. And if they can field competitive teams, it’s a best-case scenario,” said Hunter. “But we don’t know how the athletes will respond. Are they going to play for them? It’s an unknown. Will they be competitive or will they fold midway through the season?”

volleyball a few years ago, but we knew they were struggling to get players for a while so we knew in advance. “Kwantlen has always been competitive, and we heard their vision was to go to the CIS (Canadian Interuniversity Sports) at some point. So to go from wanting to go CIS to no athletics at all was a complete shock.” PACWEST is hoping KPU will put competitive teams into its respective leagues. Conference rules allow for players to transfer to other schools with-

“But if you look at an athletics calendar, there isn’t a good time (for such an announcement.)” While aware their varsity sports programs will be eliminated, student athletes are left to wonder why. Many are questioning the decision to “refocus efforts to enhance recreational and intramural activities in support of the health and wellness of our entire study body.” “Intramurals is nice and all, but it’s not varsity sports,” said Bracken. “The coaches don’t know why, but some say it was because of funding. And that left us scratching our heads.” When hired less than two years ago, Kent set a goal of getting KPU into the

The announcement shocked players and coaches, some of whom only committed to their respective teams in recent weeks. The league and its members were also caught off guard. “We were very surprised, we had no inkling this was coming,” said Hunter, who also serves as the athletic director at Vancouver Island University in Nanaimo. “In the past, we’ve had members which were struggling financially or competitively.

KPU athletics also sponsors golf and badminton. The university posted on its website last Wednesday it would be shutting down all teams, saying “our expectation is that we will play a final year of soccer and golf in Fall of 2015, and possibly a final basketball season in spring of 2016.”
