Bob Campbell says he was mocked, punished for speaking out
Environmentalist quits city committee Kevin Diakiw Black Press
A high-profile member of Surrey’s environmental committee has quit, citing the way he’s been treated and the dysfunction of the committee itself. Bob Campbell, a five-year member of the Environmental Sustainability Advisory Committee sent his resignation letter to council last month.
Campbell is the recipient of several community awards, including the Queen’s Jubilee and the City of Surrey’s Friends of Heritage Award for his activism over the years. He was also vice-chair of ESAC for three years. He’s been openly critical of several environmental issues, including Surrey’s loss of tree canopy and the creation of a galvanizing plant in South Surrey. He says in his letter of resignation he was
often derided by the former chair of the committee, Surrey Coun. Bruce Hayne. “I was openly mocked by the previous chair when I attempted to raise and discuss important issues,” Campbell writes in the June 26 letter obtained by Black Press. He says he took an active role in the community on environmental issues, often receiving calls from the media about them. “My activism was rewarded on Jan.
16, when I received a most inappropriate letter from Coun. Hayne in which he accuses me of speaking out of turn to the media,” Campbell writes in the letter, which was sent to all city councillors. In his correspondence with Campbell, Hayne took issue with two stories where he felt Campbell was speaking on behalf of ESAC. i see page 4

or most kids and teenagers, summer is a time to relax, enjoy a break from the rigors of school and spend time hanging out with friends. But for 12-year-old Jonah Daniels, summertime brings an opportunity to work on a business that he launched last year with the help of his parents, Roxayn and Jamey. It all started with a Grade 5 school project in which Jonah, a part-time White Rock resident, prepared a speech about youth entrepreneurs. Inspired by the amount of young people starting businesses that he discovered while researching his speech, Jonah came up with the idea to start his own venture, selling homemade, all-natural popsicles. “My mom always made me eat a lot of healthy foods,” Jonah explained. “So instead of buying popsicles at the store, she made her own, and very healthy.” Called Rebel Pops – to highlight the family’s rebellion against processed, unnatural foods – the frozen treats are sold by Jonah at White Rock Farmers’ Market every Sunday, as well as at markets in Maple Ridge and on Granville Island. The popsicles are made of organic fruits and herbs sourced locally and blended into unique, original creations – plum vanilla spice, peaches and cream and huckleberry wild rose are just a

Jonah Daniels, 12, and his parents Roxayn and Jamey sell Rebel Pops at the White Rock Farmers Market. few examples. “It usually takes a few different runs to fine-tune a new recipe,” Roxayn, the ‘ice-pops designer’ said. “We get inspiration from different places – maybe a jam that we’ve made, or a tea that we’ve tried.” Jonah said he helps his mom make the hundreds of Rebel Pops each week – a “very labourintensive” process – but said the
aspect of the business he most enjoys is meeting customers at the markets. “I really enjoy the energy, it’s such a happy energy,” he said. “I love seeing people walk away with a smile on their face, enjoying our product.” With a keen interest in business, Jonah said he’s researching different ways to improve their marketing, how to source out the best-
quality ingredients and how to improve their customer service. The family hopes to expand into other local markets, or perhaps into local health-food stores. For Roxayn, seeing her son so passionate about their business venture is a source of inspiration. “I’m continually amazed at what he can do at his age,” she said. “Kids can do a lot more than people expect sometimes.”
Proponents calling for more ice time in White Rock say they are “encouraged” by the direction the city is taking to address the shortage, after council voted Monday to explore the twinning of Centennial Arena. “This is probably the most visibility we’ve had on ice-time issues in a number of years now, so I’m very encouraged on the direction we’re going,” Ian Maguire, presi- ❝I think we dent of Semi- need to come ahmoo Minor Hockey Asso- up with some ciation (SMHA) solutions.❞ told Peace Arch Megan Knight News Tuesday. councillor “We’re happy to hear the city is taking it seriously, and we look forward to working with them.” The issue of an ice-time shortage for local hockey players and figure skaters was brought to council June 15, when Maguire told council members and staff that his organization spends $600,000 each year on ice time outside of the community, and urged the city to take action for more ice space.

Council debates reimbursement eligibility of post-secondary courses
Clarity sought on ‘discretional’ education Melissa Smalley Staff Reporter
A request for clarification of White Rock’s council remuneration policy raised more questions than answers at a governance and legislation committee meeting Monday. Clarification was being sought by city manager, Dan Bottrill, with regard to Policy 106, which allocates funds for “discretional educational conferences or education materials,” and was recently amended to reflect council’s four-year terms. The amounts allocated include $8,000 for the mayor and $5,400 for each councillor. Bottrill brought the policy to the committee following a request for reimbursement for a college or university course, “to assist with
their knowledge of different aspects, whether it be finance, communications, marketing or parks management,” Bottrill said. Bottrill’s query set off a lengthy discussion amongst council on the wording of the policy and whether university courses would be eligible for reimbursement. Mayor Wayne Baldwin noted the policy arose as a way for council members to gain insight into areas that would help them make better decisions. “At the time, council saw the need for the occasional opportunity, where the councillor might take a seminar on land use, or community amenity contributions or zoning, that sort of thing,” Baldwin explained, noting the term ‘discretional educational conferences’
should be “easily distinguished” from other long-term courses. Coun. Lynne Sinclair agreed, noting that her understanding was that it covered “sessions that help us to be better councillors, not something where someone gets a degree through this process.” Coun. Helen Fathers suggested the addition of “non-accredited courses” to the wording, however, Coun. Bill Lawrence said he was “apprehensive” to make that amendment, as many post-secondary institutions offer accredited courses as “one-offs.” “Someone might not be pursuing a full degree, but that one particular course would be beneficial in making them a better councillor,” Lawrence said.
Baldwin said he didn’t anticipate any members of council would be “going crazy” with the reimbursement opportunity. “I always put out the warning that, hey, if you aren’t sure, just ask yourself the question, would you feel happy if this was on the front page of the Peace Arch News?” Baldwin said. As the discussion neared the 20-minute mark, Bottrill reiterated the need for some clarity, noting he had already approved such courses for a council member in the previous year, but was still unclear on council’s intentions moving forward. At the suggestion of Baldwin, the committee referred the issue to be brought back at the July 27 council meeting, with amended wording in the policy.

Colin Hill paid with his life to protect his family, according to a Facebook post by the popular realtor’s wife. On Sunday night, 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 the 42-year-old Cloverdale resident. In her Facebook post, Hill’s wife, Becky Zhou, said he led the would-be robber outside to give the famColin Hill ily time to hide. victim “Colin is the best real estate agent, very protective father (and) very best husband a person could ever ask for,” she wrote, asking for for privacy during this time. Hill’s killer fled the scene in a stolen vehicle. Hours later in Burnaby, RCMP were called to reports of a man brandishing a gun in an apartment complex. Surrey’s Khouri Lamar Green was arrested. He appeared in court Tuesday, charged with second degree murder.

Surrey Food Bank seeking online donations to fill hampers
Christmas in July campaign revived Boaz Joseph Black Press
O come, all ye faithful, and help the Surrey Food Bank this summer. The non-profit society has resurrected its Christmas in July program and taken it online as it expands purchases of healthier foods to meet the changing needs of its clients. There are 14,000 people served each month – 40 per cent of them children – and the need continues in the hot-weather months when donations tend to dwindle. While food donations are always welcome, the SFB is seeking more money to buy baby formula, protein, meals-in-a-tin, soups, milk, eggs and rice – the latter undergoing a world-
wide shortage and price increases. Through bulk-buying arrangements with grocery chains, each dollar donated to the food bank can buy $3 worth of food. “We buy $10,000 worth of formula every six weeks to feed to 200 babies a week,” says SFB Director of External Relations Feezah Jaffer. That number is growing, as the SFB has 87 babies waiting to be born among its clients. For the first time, the SFB is also buying bulk carrots and potatoes on a regular basis. “We’re adamant that our clients receive good food that’s as healthy as possible,” says executive director Marilyn Herrmann. “If you allow us to do the purchasing, we can do it in a much more thoughtful and effective way.”
Unlike the previous Christmas in July program, which ran until several years ago, the SFB is asking for online donations only. The money raised through Christmas in July will go directly to food purchases. The SFB continues through its programs to assist more vulnerable members of the population, including babies, people with mobility issues, new Canadians and seniors. “Hunger has no season,” says Jaffer. “If you’re hungry, you’re hungry.” The Surrey Food Bank is located at 10732 City Parkway.

Eight incidents in 24 hours
Overdoses prompt warning Surrey RCMP issued a public-safety warning to street-level drug users this week, following a series of overdoses in a 24-hour period. According to an advisory issued just before 9 p.m. Wednesday, police have responded to at least eight overdoses in which individuals were apparently ingesting heroin and immediately showed signs of an overdose.
In at least three instances, extreme life-saving measures had to be taken. All of the individuals were taken to local hospitals and are recovering. The drug in question has not been analyzed to determine its concentration or makeup, however, those affected told police they were purchasing what they thought was heroin.

Q Asbestos threat on rise A

Demolition boom to blame for increase in airborne toxin
Jeff Nagel Black Press
An alarming number of contractors are failing to safely remove asbestos before they demolish or renovate an older home, prompting WorkSafeBC to step up enforcement to prevent a new epidemic of disease in the future. The agency conducted 210 inspections last year and found 43 per cent of hazardous material surveys were inadequate, often failing to detect asbestos that further tests proved was present. “In many of these cases they’ll produce a survey by a testing firm that shows no asbestos. We will then take samples ourselves and we’ll find asbestos in that property,” said Al Johnson, WorkSafeBC vice-president of prevention services. Disreputable hazmat firms may not check enough of a building, leaving out obvious sources of risk that can include drywall, floor tiles, insulation, cement pipes, linoleum and spray-on fireproofing. Workers exposed to airborne asbestos fibres released at construction sites can contract cancers and other asbestos-related diseases decades later. Asbestos has emerged as B.C.’s top workplace killer, with 581

Those deaths were mostly due to industrial exposure of trades people at high levels 20 to 40 years ago, but Johnson fears more gradual exposure in construction and demolition will be the new killer of the future. Contributing to the problem is the soaring price of land in Metro Vancouver that has fueled a boom in demolitions as hundreds of older houses are cleared away each year to make way for the dream homes of buyers. “The housing market is playing into this in a significant way because many old homes built prior to the mid-80s are just being purchased for the land and torn down,” Johnson said. Some contractors or home owners have no clue about the risks or the health and safety
laws that apply, he said, while others are trying to dodge the cost of dealing with the danger responsibly. “You can come in and demolish with backhoe or an excavator and have a big pile of rubble and try to haul it off somewere. That’s a lot different than having a team of people go in propely protected.” Five cities – Vancouver, Coquitlam, Port Coquitlam, Saanich and Nanaimo – require demolition permit applicants to first provide hazardous material survey results. Renovations are more difficult for enforcement officers to spot and police. Johnson said WorkSafeBC is appealing to home owners to get a responsible contractor. “The last thing you want is somebody tearing out your kitchen and then somebody later on saying ‘that was all asbestos.’ Now you and your family and your kids and everybody else may have been exposed and breathed in a hazardous material.” The enforcement blitz begins this month and continues until the end of the year. More information can be found at WorkSafeBC’s asbestos information site hiddenkiller.ca

Have any missing teeth replaced. After teeth are lost it can be a slippery slope for losing more teeth. This is because a full complement of teeth provides maximum support and stability. Options for replacing missing teeth include fixed or removable prosthetic solutions. Beware of the dangers of waiting until something hurts. Issues with your teeth progress over time and often don’t hurt until they have deteriorated to the point that you notice them. Sometimes it is too late and teeth cannot be saved. Use a splint or dental orthotic. Often called a nightguard or occlusal (bite) splint. This helps provide stability and support that you would have from a full dentition. Have regular preventative hygiene appointments. By verbalizing your desire to keep your teeth for a lifetime to your hygienist and dentist, they will help you make this a reality. Talk to a dentist. Those in the profession with additional training in occlusal rehabilitation are best qualified to provide you with the most complete information to help you achieve what you want for your teeth and smile. Dr. Michael R. Layton DDS grew up in South Surrey/White Rock and is passionate about helping its residents achieve their long term goals for their smile.

Conservation is common sense
T
o paraphrase Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz … water and power and fire, oh my! Unlike Dorothy’s fears of walking through the unknown forest, the fear of forest fires, power outages and water shortages are only too real this summer across the province. While forest fires are always the summer’s hotbutton issue province-wide, the hot, dry weather has communities raising a flag on water usage, too, while BC Hydro has expressed concern about power usage. Taken together, it all sounds a little bit apocalyptic. But we haven’t reached the end of times just yet – these are precautions being taken by those in positions of authority. And despite the recent cooling pattern in the Lower Mainland over the past week – a weather system that even included some much-needed rain – the concern should remain, and common sense should always prevail. It will take more than a few hours of light rain to have the campfire and burning ban removed, and water levels won’t improve overnight. The precautions currently in place are simply good operating procedure, no matter the time of year. Regardless of usage concerns, should we not try to conserve? The water issue is one that continues to perplex residents throughout the province, with people either confused about the rules, or choosing to ignore them completely. Over the past week, numerous calls and emails to the Peace Arch News have posed the same question – do the water restrictions apply to White Rock, since the city is not tapped into the Metro Vancouver system? According to water-supplier Epcor, White Rock remains under normal – stage 1 – summer restrictions, but does it really matter? Water levels are low everywhere, so it does no harm to err on the side of caution. (On social media, the hashtag #grassholes has sprouted up, as a way to publicly shame those with perfect, green lawns who continue to flout the restrictions.) As for the water supply, experts predict that in three decades, about one-third of the world’s population will suffer from chronic shortages. So perhaps it’s time to take notice, with our systems being pressed to the limit, and wonder what it might be like in years to come, when severe restrictions are placed on our resources. Conserving a few drops of water here and there might not seem like a lot, but developing a conservationist attitude now, as individuals and as a community, will help ensure resources will be available for our next generation.

lesson does it teach that child? If you fuss long enough, you’ll get what you want, regardless of the consequences? As a toddler, will that child’s caregivers allow it to cross the street without holding their hand, simply because he/she doesn’t want to? When that child learns how to ride a bike, will he/she be exempt from wearing a helmet if they cry long enough? I knew from the experience of a friend who witnessed a similar incident that there was nothing authorities could do unless they saw the incident firsthand. The vehicle in question happened to be adorned with logos of a local insurance company, complete with a vanity plate spelling out the company’s name. So the next day, I emailed the company letting them know what I saw and how much it bothered me. Within a half hour, I received a response from the company ensuring me the incident would be investigated and that “appropriate steps will be taken so it will not happen in the future.” I felt a glimmer of relief knowing that the blatant child endangerment I saw would not go completely unnoticed. At the same time, I am still profoundly bothered to know that there are adults out there – responsible for vulnerable, dependent children – that are so utterly stupid. There’s a fine line between sticking our noses where they don’t belong and speaking up to protect those who can’t defend themselves. Putting someone’s life at risk, especially a helpless child, is something that can’t be ignored. Melissa Smalley is a reporter with the Peace Arch News.

By Saturday, it was already full again, adding some not-so-desirable aromas to our garage area. Said green bin is even smaller than our three blue recycling bins which are always full to over-flowing by their pickup day. Really? This is supposed to work? The utterly nonsensical rule of adding meat scraps to supposed “compost” (which no gardener worth her salt would ever do as meat scraps attract vermin, smell to high heaven and do no actual composting at all) is an exercise in pure ecological ignorance. Not to mention the complete abrogation of civic responsibility in the collection of citizen garbage defies all the rules of local government. What exactly is our council doing for us except to get a generous paycheque while ignoring the common-day needs of the populace? The responsibilities of local government are, mostly: a) the collection of local garbage; b) the maintenance of local roads; c) water service (pity they sold us out); d) development in accordance with citizens’ wishes and acceptance. The arrogance of our present council, with a few exceptions, is overwhelming. Secret meetings. No citizen input. No garbage collection. Indeed? Amazingly, the mayor wonders why we are not “civil” when addressing his habit of running roughshod over our commonsense rights and desires for the protection and proper running of our city. Pat Patton, White Rock Q The fun has begun! With every business and multifamily building left to make its own arrangements for garbage pickup, we now have the following situation: Instead of City of White Rock garbage trucks coming on a designated day each week, we now have everybody and his brother’s garbage trucks filling our streets and back lanes. They service a building here, and another over there… here a building, there another. Like ants on an anthill, they are all over. How insanely inefficient. I read that city hall is now putting the single-family garbage service out for tender. When our fearless leaders decided to dump (pun intended) the garbage pickup for businesses and multifamily buildings, did it occur to them to put all garbage services out for tender and get a good deal for all concerned? If not, why not? I’m forced to ask the age-old question: What are we? Chopped liver? Pat Tietzen, White Rock
Q Open letter to White Rock council. We are proud residents of White Rock. We are also very proud of our strata. We take good care of it and its surrounding gardens. This year brought with it an unexpected challenge in that we were required to hire a wastemanagement company to remove our garbage. We took you at your word and after receiving your letter, began researching companies to see who would best suit our needs both within our budget and with competency. We are quite happy with our choice. The majority of owners in this building have reached their eightieth year and all have seamlessly adjusted to the new rules for garbage collection. However, on July 8, five large bags of garbage along with a variety of debris were left on the city laneway adjacent to our cardboard/paper bin. We have locked our bins because we have for many years had problems with strangers putting their garbage in our receptacles. It appears that instead of putting garbage in our bins, strangers are now leaving garbage in the laneway. Garbage collection is expensive and so we have arranged with the company to collect it in a frequency appropriate to the bin to be emptied, in order for costs to be manageable.
I first called the city to ask about the abandoned garbage and the garbage people agreed that this is a city problem. However, they informed me that the bylaw people would not be able to inspect the area until a week has passed. Two of the bags had some food in them and even when first noticed there were holes in the bags. We realized that the city, while sympathetic, was not prepared to take action in time to stop animals from spreading food around. After discussions with our wastemanagement company, we decided to clear the garbage and put it in our waste bin. Because the bin had been emptied that morning we hoped it would not overflow before the next pickup. The wastemanagement company is aware that the garbage is not being separated. But, if we require an extra pickup, the charge will be $50. This is unacceptable to us. It should not be at our expense when a representative of the city has told us that the city is responsible. It seems to me that the city should have by now developed some kind of protocol to manage a situation like ours. In not doing so, the city is not serving its taxpayers, nor is it being vigilant about possible health hazards should vermin be attracted to the debris. Your decision to make
homeowners responsible for garbage collection is turning White Rock into a garbage dump. Garbage trucks from a variety of companies obstruct our streets and laneways. They produce enormous noise pollution. One of our owners counted nine different trucks passing his window in less than half a day. Furthermore, your tax reduction has provided us with only a third of the cost per strata lot. At the present time, we enjoy noise pollution, traffic slow-downs and stress to our incomes. How arrogant of you to be treating your citizens in this way. Our beautiful city is not so beautiful anymore. Please, at the very least, develop a protocol to respond quickly to random waste drops in our laneways by strangers. K.J. Porter, Chatsworth Manor Q Open letter to White Rock council. You should be renaming our city to Garbage Truck City. Since your very disorganized stoppage of the garbage pickup, we now have garbage trucks every day, non-stop, up and down the streets and alleys, causing nothing but chaos and traffic congestion. Thanks a lot, great job, too bad it is not an election year, I am sure all the owners in White Rock would like to see the end of you. Arlene Sweet, White Rock

The combination of steep, busy White Rock streets and longboarders is a recipe for tragedy, writes L. Wills.
Safety of longboarders top-of-mind Editor: Since summer started, I have seen kids from 10 to 15, sometimes older, longboarding on the very steep Foster and Fir streets in White Rock. These are very heavy-traffic areas and vision is often blocked. The RCMP advised us to inform the City of White Rock’s bylaw officers to warn the kids of the danger. But the bylaw officers apparently find the kids scampering away when they arrive. And then they move to a different street.
I have spoken to some of the kids but they just patronized me with, “Yeah, yeah, we know.” While we understand kids should have fun, these are very busy streets. Sooner or later there will be an accident. It would be tragic for both longboarders and drivers if they get injured or worse, particularly for something that is preventable. Parents, do you know where your kids are? Do you know that they are endangering themselves and others? Please, have a chat with your kids. L. Wills, White Rock

‘A real need’ for more ice time
i from page 1 presented a report outlining three options the city could undertake to address the issue. The first, to convert the Peace Arch Curling Rink to be used for other ice activities, including 3-on-3 hockey, would come with a price tag of close to $1.5 million. The second option, to twin Centennial Arena, is estimated to cost $10 to $12 million, plus up to $3 million more for the additional parking.
The third option – and the one recommended by staff – was for the city to maintain the status quo, thus not providing any additional ice time despite the need. Council voted to receive the report, however, Coun. Megan Knight tabled a motion – unanimously carried – for staff to work with SMHA and White Rock Skating Club to prepare a business case for the twinning of Centennial Arena, for recommendation for the next financial-
planning session in the fall. “There is a real need in our community for more ice time, and I think we need to come up with some solutions,” Knight said. While Maguire said SMHA is hopeful that Monday’s decision is a step in the right direction, he acknowledged that building a new ice rink would be a large investment for the city. “To build a rink is a huge capital project,” he said. “The city doesn’t want to build something that’s not going to last and continue to meet our needs for a number of years.” The issue of ice time has been a concern for SMHA for years.

need to be, too. The new CEO also needs to take a long, hard look at the TransLink Police and see if there is value for money there. As Jordan Bateman of the Canadian Taxpayers Federation has pointed out, most of them are glorified fare collectors. Most have minimal files to deal with, as compared to their municipal or RCMP counterparts. Yet in 2012, more than one-third of them earned more than $100,000 per year. Many are retired police officers who already get pensions from other jurisdictions. Some of us had expressed hope that Allen was starting to cut through some of the heavy underbrush which has impeded TransLink’s cost efficiency. If Surrey and other South Fraser areas are ever going to get better bus service, it must come through a single-minded concentration on cutting costs and spending money wisely. This may be the first step in that direction, or it is nothing more than window dressing. Frank Bucholtz writes Fridays for the Peace Arch News.

Angie Dosanjh heals through sensory deprivation therapy sensory-deprivation
Finding peace in ‘nothing’ Tracy Holmes
W
Staff Reporter
hen Angie Dosanjh got the devastating news of her husband’s death, she was “completely
broken.” Tej had been her high school sweetheart, they’d been married 10 years and she was just weeks away from giving birth to their second child when police rang the doorbell of their Cloverdale home early one morning in August 2012. “There’s no manual” for dealing with that kind of loss, Dosanjh said. “It opened up my heart in a way in which I realized how traumatic life can be.” Overwhelmed by grief while focusing on remaining strong for her daughters, Dosanjh began re-evaluating her life, and looked to alternative paths to find her own healing. She found it where she least expected – in ‘nothing.’ “The experience of floating is commonly referred to as experiencing nothing,” Dosanjh explained, of the sensorydeprivation technique a friend suggested

floating in everyone’s life – whether it’s for stress relief, help managing chronic pain, injury recovery or simply to relax. (She noted her centre is the first this side of the Fraser to offer float tanks; she also offers dry-salt therapy, for respiratory and skin ailments, as well as massage.) Next month will mark the third anniversary of her husband’s death, and while her business may have evolved from the tragedy, Dosanjh said it is not centred on it. “Losing him resulted in me going off on a different path,” she said. “As tragic as it is, it’s not going to define me, but it’s going to create meaning for me… turn my scars into sacred scars. “I really feel like I want this to be a place of healing and rest for people.”

SPCA offering half-price adoption fees
Homes sought for adult cats BC SPCA is offering cat owners the opportunity to add 10 pounds of feline fun to their life for half the usual price. The July adoption event is hoped to “encourage anyone who has been considering cat adoption to take the next step and make it a reality,” says Lorie Chortyk, BC SPCA general manager of community relations. “So many adult cats are looking for loving, forever homes – why not come and see if one of them is the purr-fect match for you?” From July 17 -27, all branches are offering 50 per cent off the usual adoption fees for all adult

The SPCA needs to find homes for many adult cats. cats. The usual criteria for adopting a cat will apply, Chortyk said, but the goal is to find homes for as many as possible, freeing up space to assist more animals in
need of care. Each year, the BC SCPA rescues more than 15,000 cats and kittens across the province. Adult cats may not be as cute as kittens, but Chortyk said mature cats have plenty of advantages – they’re calmer, litter-trained, fully grown and their personalities are already developed. “But the best reason is, adult cats deserve love, too,” she said. A bag of pet food will be distributed free with every adoption as part of the promotion. To search for adoptable cats, visit spca.bc.ca
Hunting dogs to be showcased It’s a bond that speaks of centuries of dogs working together with their handlers to bring in game from land and water. The love of hunting and gun-dog breeds will be celebrated this weekend as competitors from this region will participate in The Sporting Dog Spectacular, a series of one-breed hunting dog shows back-to-back at
Hazelmere RV Park, 18843 8 Ave. The event, July 17-18, also includes agility trials. On Friday (July 17), golden retrievers and Labrador retrievers will be featured; on Saturday and Sunday, a national show will be held for Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retrievers, and on Sunday, it will be Pointers and German Shorthaired Pointers.

‘Showy’ role change of pace for Surrey actress Alex Browne Arts Reporter
Contributed photo
Elyse Maloway.
Surrey’s Elyse Maloway is becoming a name to reckon with in theatre circles. The Cloverdale-raised actress and playwright, 22 – recent graduate of Capilano University’s threeyear Musical Theatre program – has already attracted attention in shows for Surrey Little Theatre (Get Smart and her own script, Splintered), the White Rock Players Club (The Lion In Winter), Bard in the Valley (Julius Caesar), Exit 22 and Fighting Chance Productions (A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Forum).
She’s all set to play the lead role of Lucy in the original 1927 stage version of Dracula, for Ellie King’s Royal Canadian Theatre Company, which will tour to Vancouver, Surrey and Maple Ridge in October. But this summer, she’s bursting onto the Vancouver scene in a far different incarnation – the showy role of Amber Von Tussle in Theatre Under The Stars’ production of Hairspray. The musical just opened in Malkin Bowl at Stanley Park and runs – in rotation with Oliver! – until Aug. 22. Based on the 1988 John Waters cult movie, Hairspray is set in Baltimore, circa 1962, and follows the misad-
ventures of optimistic teen underdog Tracy Turnblad, determined to become the star of her favourite pop music TV program, the Corny Collins Show. The trouble is that is Tracy far from the homogenized ‘look’ the show requires for its young performers – and she also has to contend with the equally-determined opposition of producer Velma Von Tussle and her snooty, short-on-talent daughter Amber, already enthroned as the program’s teen princess. For Maloway, playing Amber is another step away from being typed as the “innocent girl.”
It’s a quality she well-embodied in two earlier Community Theatre Coalition-nominated roles; Philia in A Funny Thing, her first big Vancouver musical, and Alais Capet in The Lion In Winter, who, while a king’s mistress, needed to suggest youth and a certain naivete. “It’s exciting to get something different to play – and exciting when people give you that chance,” Maloway told Peace Arch News. The former Martha Currie Elementary and Langley Senior Secondary student confesses that she has been a fan of Hairspray ever since she saw › see page 17

Escape to the ‘Roaring ‘20s’ Alex Browne Arts Reporter
Everything will be the ‘bees knees’ and the ‘cat’s meow’ Thursday, July 23 as Music at the Museum presents a special Roaring Twenties-themed show 6-8:30 p.m. at the Surrey Museum plaza (17710 56A Avenue). Visitors are invited to don flapper fringes and two-toned shoes and be prepared to dance at the all-ages, by-donation event, which brings together Surrey’s award-winning heritage theatre troupe The Re-enactors and the riffs and three-part harmonies of popular Lower Mainland swing ensemble the Company B Jazz Band. Those less agile can pull up a lawn chair and listen to the music and also experience true Surrey stories through story and song presented by the Re-enactors. Reeve T.J. Sullivan, farmer Zennosuke Inouye and college
student Irene Christmas Bourassa will be among the real-life characters who will return to share their insights into what life was like in Surrey in the 1920s. The Company B Jazz Band, a versatile six-piece group of vocalists/musicians with a love for vintage-style music have become firm favourites for Lindy-Hoppers at swing dance events locally and at jazz festivals across North America. They feature Juhli Conlin (vocals, mellozoo), Shannon Scott (vocals), Bonnie Northgrave (vocals, trumpet), Jens Christiansen (saxophone, clarinet), Jennifer Hodge (bass, percussion) and Dave Taylor (guitar). The event will be held rain or shine (moving indoors in the event of the former). For more information about Music at the Museum, visit www.surrey.ca/heritage or call 604-592-6956.

The rest of the cast each play multiple characters from Hitchcock’s adaptation, with Laura Caswell embodying Hannay’s potential love interests, and quick-changing ‘Clowns’ (as credited) Ashley O’Connell and Ben Odberg tackling, successfully, dozens of British accents and physical gymnastics. That all four players, at last Friday’s opening gala, made their interactions seem so effortless (when there can be little doubt that the energy required is substantial) attests to the talent on display. Director Bissett’s stagecraft is evident, as his cast make full use – and re-use – of every item on the packed stage, though I on occasion questioned his anachronistic choices when they furthered neither the plot nor, sufficiently, the laugh quotient. Other stage productions of 39 Steps, I’m told, focus on deft transitions and theatrical effects. Given the practical limitations of this one, Bissett wisely chose to make such restraints part of the overall fun. Produced by Wendy Bollard and Janet Ellis, 39 Steps runs until July 25 at Coast Capital Playhouse, 1532 Johnston Rd. Lance Peverley is editor of Peace Arch News.

Actress juggling multiple roles › from page 15 the 2007 John Travolta-Michelle Pfeiffer-Nikki Blonsky movie version of the musical, in which the Amber role was portrayed by Brittany Snow. “You love to hate Amber,” Maloway said. “She’s very spoiled – she definitely gets treated like a princess and expects to be treated that way. It’s very fun to play. “But I do try to be extra nice to people when I’m not on stage – this isn’t really me!” Not that she’s reining in any of Amber’s diva qualities when she’s in the spotlight, she said. In this, Maloway is guided by director Sarah Rogers, who she credits with having a very strong vision of what she wants and a willingness to experiment with suggestions her actors bring to the table. “We’re really going for broke with Amber – she’s very much like all of the high-school stereotypes of all the ‘popular’ girls we’ve ever
known.” Also informing her on-stage appearances is her ability as a playwright, which first came to notice when she won the Write On competition in 2008, at the age of 15. Her original script Splinters – in which a single park bench became the setting for a series of intersecting stories – was accepted for production by Surrey Little Theatre for its youth troupe in 2010. “I got to cast it and direct it – Surrey Little Theatre’s Brigitte Seib and Tyler Seib gave me wonderful support,” she said. It also gave her another writing opportunity – she and a classmate co-created an original musical based on the life of ancient British warrior queen Boudicca (Boadicea) for a workshop production. “We tried to make it as historically accurate as possible – given that there is very little history available – but it did tend more toward the theatrical,” she said.
In the meantime, the busy actress is having too much fun with her current run of theatrical ‘stretch’ roles – which, in addition to the obnoxious Amber, recently included the moody Marya in Gogol’s The Government Inspector, 10-year-old Colin in The Secret Garden, both for Exit 22, and the conspirator/assassin Cassius in Bard in the Valley’s Julius Caesar. And she’s looking forward to exploring the role of Lucy in Dracula – in which the young woman, an innocent victim at the outset, falls increasingly under the influence of the vampire count. Finding ways to show both sides of the character will also be an interesting challenge, Maloway said. “Hopefully, I don’t develop a personality disorder in the process!” she added.

uestion: My mother always told me that I had been adopted by a man she was married to for a while many years ago. I have just received a letter from a Vancouver lawyer asking me if I was adopted by this man because he has died without a will and has an estate. The letter says his new wife, now widow, is still alive and that this amn never made a will. I have now found my adoption papers. What do I do?
Q
nswer: Send a copy of your adoption papers to the lawyer together with a photocopy of your driver’s licence and another government ID. If the facts turn out to be what you state, his widow will be entitled to the Àrst $150,000 of the estate plus one-half of the rest. You will get the rest, although some may be delayed because there are provisions which allow the widow to stay in the family home.

Justine Clift set for Tour de White Rock after car accident robbed her of ability to run
Former runner switches gears to cycling Nick Greenizan
I
Sports Reporter
t wasn’t that long ago that Justine Clift figured her athletic future would revolve around running. There was really no reason to think otherwise. After a high-school career at Elgin Park Secondary that saw her compete in a variety of sports – “I was very active in high school,” she said – the South Surrey resident graduated and moved on to UBC, where for four years she competed in both track-andfield and cross-country. But soon after graduating from university, Clift suffered serious injuries – a leg broken in multiple places, and a ruptured achilles tendon – in a car crash. What followed was months of recovery, plus a long, tedious rehab program. And it was during her rehabilitation that Clift, now 27, realized her running days were behind her. “I was pretty determined to get back running again, but it took a few false starts to realize that it wasn’t going to happen,” she explained. “Eventually, my physiotherapist said, ‘Look, this might not work out.’

“That was a really hard time for me – it was pretty hard to get my head around. But when I realized I wasn’t able to run anymore, I started looking for another competitive outlet.”
While at UBC, Clift had competed in a few triathlons – so she already owned a road bike – and she’d taken up cycling during her rehab, and found it was the easiest on her body. “I just started riding a lot more, and eventually I started riding with a group, and then just started racing – my first race was 2012.” In the three years since, Clift has dove headfirst into the sport, competing at a full schedule of events – she races with GlotmanSimpson Racing Team – while still holding down a day job as a transportation planner with a Vancouver consulting firm. Since the spring, she has competed in the Redlands Cycling Classic – a five-day stage race in California – as well as highprofile UCI (Union Cycliste International)sanctioned races in North Carolina and Quebec, along with a host of races closer to home in the Pacific Northwest. This week, she’s back racing closer to home during BC Superweek, and will be at the start line for both Tour de White Rock races – the criterium, which runs today (Friday) and Saturday morning’s Peace Arch News Road Race. Juggling a job with such a busy racing

SUMMER HOURS: Mon-Fri 9am to 9pm Sat-Sun 9am to 6pm
schedule has been difficult, Clift said, but she has so far been able to make it work, thanks to an understanding employer and the ability to work remotely from race sites. “I’ve been really lucky to be able to make it work, but there is a tension there between preparing for a race and focusing on work. You’re getting your head ready (for a race) and but then you have to be on a conference call for work,” she explained. “You get really good at compartmentalizing things. You think, ‘OK, I just got off the phone, but now it’s time to race.’ “You feel like you have a bit of an alter-ego. You take off your cycling gear and go put on office clothes for a Monday morning. There are probably some people at work who don’t quite understand what I’ve been doing all weekend.” Clift has been competing at Superweek events – which also include races in Delta, Gastown, UBC and Burnaby – for a few years, and admits that it was intimidating, at first, to race against full-time professionals. “I didn’t ever think I’d be riding at this level. I just thought it was a good way to stay fit, and be competitive, but when I first i see page 20

Excited for race
i from page 19 started, it was really scary, actually,” she said. “Cycling can seem dangerous at times – there are a lot of crashes, and high speeds. It was definitely a process to get used to it, and Superweek was really my first exposure to this level of racing.” Eventually, she said, you “get a taste for it” and develop the skills needed to compete at high-profile events that feature fields often chock full of full-time professional riders. “You always try to raise the bar, and go to harder and harder races. So my goals are always evolving, too. I’m always looking to improve, and I think I’m getting closer and closer to really being able to compete with those girls. It’s exciting.” She’s also excited about the opportunity to race in front of family and friends this weekend – her grandparents live along the road-race course, she said. “They’ll get to walk down and cheer for me.” Still, with all her successes on the bike, she admits there are times she misses her old athletic pursuits. “Sometimes you just want to go for a run, and I can’t, so that part is a little bit sad, but I have this whole new world, and a whole new community now.”

add some mobility and skill to the Eagles’ blue line. The 18-year-old defenceman – who played Junior ‘B’ last season in the Vancouver Island Junior Hockey League – was brought to the attention of Neufeld through a former Denmark coach, Enio Sacilotto, who is now an assistant with the Western Hockey League’s Victoria Royals. “Enio was a big factor in bringing Ludvig over to us,” Neufeld said. Adamsen, who is a six-footthree, left-handed shot, will suit up for Denmark at the world juniors, which means the Eagles will be without him from midDecember until Jan. 5. “It is such a great experience and honour for any player to play on a national team at that level, so we’re proud to have him as a Surrey Eagle,” said Neufeld.

Kwantlen’s PACWEST future murky after announcement
Next season no certainty Rick Kupchuk Black Press
Kwantlen Polytechnic University announced last week that it will compete for just one more season in the Pacific Western Athletic Conference (PACWEST) before shutting down its varsity athletics programs. But despite those claims, PACWEST officials weren’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 met Tuesday in Vancouver to discuss the ramifications of the KPU announcement. Kwantlen teams play in PACWEST leagues, most notably in men’s and women’s soccer and basketball. KPU athletics also sponsors golf and badminton. The university posted on its website last Wednesday that 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
File photo
Kwantlen’s final season in the PACWEST Conference is in doubt. of 2016.” 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. Selkirk College dropped out of 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.” On Tuesday, Kwantlen athletes – led by soccer co-captain Jessica Anderegg – issued their own press release, stating they were “frustrated and feeling blindsided” by the school’s announcement. PACWEST is hoping KPU will put competitive teams into its respective leagues. Conference rules allow for players to transfer to other schools without 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?”

Strongest June market in Fraser Valley in 10 years SURREY, BC – Last month’s sales volumes on the Fraser Valley Real Estate Board’s Multiple Listing Service® (MLS®) were the highest for June since 2005 and rank as the fourth busiest month ever for MLS® sales in the Fraser Valley. There were 2,413 sales processed on the MLS® in June, an increase of 45 per cent compared to the 1,668 sales processed in June of last year and also an increase of 23 per cent compared to May. Jorda Maisey is the Board’s President. “This is the strongest residential market we’ve experienced
since 2005 and prior to that in the early 90’s. What’s generating all this activity? “Our informal market research shows that the majority of homebuyers in the Fraser Valley are families with children moving within their same community or moving within the Fraser Valley region. Our clients are telling us that they’re feeling confident with the current economic climate in BC and the long-term value of investing in real estate.” In addition to a surge in sales, the number of new listings also picked up in June increasing by 11 per
cent going from 2,989 last year to 3,316 last month; taking the number of active listings to 8,105. Maisey adds, “With demand for detached homes and townhomes at peak levels, our advice to prospective buyers is interview a number of REALTORS® for help navigating what can be a stressful market. With the average home selling in just over a month and many homes receiving multiple offers, you need an expert to find you a home, protect you and position you for success.”
In June, the MLS® Home Price Index (MLS® HPI) benchmark price of a detached home was $609,900, an increase of 7.3 per cent compared to June 2014 when it was $568,600. The benchmark price of townhouses in June was $302,600, an increase of 1.6 per cent compared to $297,800 in June 2014. The benchmark price of apartments decreased year-over-year by 2.6 per cent, going from $197,000 in June 2014, to $191,900 last month. – Fraser Valley Real Estate Board

CAUMARTIN, Margot Jan. 27, 1933 - May 24, 2015 It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Margot Caumartin at Peace Arch Hospital in White Rock on May 24, 2015. She was predeceased by her parents Betty and Ludwig Kiefhaber, her husband Don and her granddaughter Bettina Stelp. Margot was born in Germany and immigrated to Canada when she was 21. She lived in the Lower Mainland for most of her life. She will be remembered fondly by her daughters Andrea (Evan), Sheila, Karen (Brian) and grandchildren Cheryl, Ethan and Keira, as well as many extended family and friends. Margot greatly enjoyed working and taking care of others, and worked for many years at Surrey Memorial Hospital in the Extended Care Unit. Her many passions included gardening, reading, needle work and taking care of her companion animals. A memorial service will take place at Valley View Memorial Home and Cemetery on July 24th, 2015 at 11:00 a.m. In lieu of flowers, a donation to the SPCA would be greatly appreciated.
CAMERON, Joan Mildred (nee Bignell) 1927-2015 Our dear Joan passed away April 24, 2015, her daughter Judy at her side. Although she did not want to leave us, she was unafraid and died with dignity. Born in Vancouver July 14th, 1927 to George and Gladys, Joan enjoyed her years spent in the city before moving to the South Surrey/White Rock area in 1960 to begin a more rural life on acreage with animals. She returned to Vancouver in 1976 to resume her career as a telephone operator at BC Tel. Joan fondly recalled her years working there. Upon retiring in 1988 she came back to the White Rock area sharing her home with her mother from 1999 until her passing in 2008. The most recent years were spent visiting with family, friends, tending to her home and garden and cat Sweetie. Joan was a caring person and as a life-long animal lover a pet was always an important part of her home. Her family was her priority. We remember her as being independent, wise and practical. Always ready for a good adventure, to see or learn something new. Facing life with a ‘chin up, shoulders back’ attitude, Joan always told it as she saw it. Predeceased by husband Ron in 1972 Joan is survived by her daughter Judy and the light of her life granddaughter Quinn, cousins in Washington State and England and dear friendships spanning decades. Upon hearing a comment on her petite stature Joan would wryly reply “Good things come in small packages!” Indeed Mum. No service by request. If desired, donations to SPCA or Canadian Cancer Society on Joan’s behalf.
