VIOLENT CRIME SOARS IN SURREY

▶ ATTEMPTED HOMICIDES WERE UP 600% OVERALL – 900% IN NEWTON – IN FIRST SIX MONTHS OF 2015 COMPARED TO THE SAME PERIOD LAST YEAR KEVIN DIAKIW

Violent crime in Surrey has skyrocketed by 34 per cent, with attempted murders six times that of the first half of last year. Newton led the city with the spike in attempted homi-

cides, experiencing a 900-per-cent jump in the first six months of this year compared to the same period last year. It was followed by Whalley at a 300-per-cent climb in attempted homicides, while other communities saw no change. Homicides were down 33 per cent overall. Police say the large amount of attempted murders are due to the drug turf war playing out, largely in Newton and Whalley, where two groups are battling over a dial-a-dope operation. continued on page 4

Surrey MLA to oversee TransLink Bacon trial put off until late 2016 ▶ PREMIER SHUFFLES CABINET; PETER FASSBENDER MOVED OUT OF EDUCATION MINISTRY JEFF NAGEL

B.C. Liberal backbencher Mike Bernier is B.C.’s new Education Minister, while

predecessor Peter Fassbender – MLA for Surrey-Fleetwood – takes over as Community, Sport, and Cultural Develop-

ment Minister, with responsibility for TransLink as well. The mini cabinet shuffle announced Thursday by Premier Christy Clark also shifts Coralee Oakes, who previously headed the ministry that deals with munici-

palities, to Minister of Small Business and Red-Tape Reduction, with responsibility for the Liquor Distribution Branch. continued on page 8

▼ ACCUSED IN SURREY SIX SLAYINGS WILL HAVE BEEN IN JAIL FOR 7 YEARS AWAITING TRIAL BY THE TIME HIS NEXT COURT DATE ROLLS AROUND KEVIN DIAKIW

The trial for Jamie Bacon has been postponed for more than a year due to a lengthy pre-trial process. Bacon, on trial in relation to the Surrey Six slayings in October 2007, was due to be in court on Sept. 2 on one count of first-degree murder and conspiracy to commit murder. The so-called Surrey Six slayings at Balmoral Tower in Whally left six dead, including two innocent bystanders – Chris Mohan of Surrey and Ed Schelleberg of Abbotsford. On Tuesday, July 28, the trial was put forward to Oct. 31, 2016 – seven years after Bacon was arrested in connection with the crime in 2009. “A number of factors (caused the postponement), but that included that there’s additional time that’s expected to be needed to deal with some additional pre-trial applications as well as dealing with issues arising from disclosure by Crown of some privileged material,” said Neil MacKenzie, spokesman for the provincial criminal justice branch. A ban on publication is in place on any of the pre-trial motions that are causing the delays. The trial itself is expected to last for six to nine months. To this point, four people have been convicted, or have pleaded guilty, to a role in the murders of Corey Lal, his brother Michael, associates Ryan Bartolomeo and Eddie Narong, and Schellenberg Jamie Bacon and Mohan. Last December, Cody Haevischer and Matthew Johnston were sentenced to life in prison after being found guilty of six counts of first-degree murder and one count of conspiracy. They are appealing their convictions. In 2013, Michael Le pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit murder and was sentenced to 12 years. One person, who can only be identified as Person X by court order, pleaded guilty to second-degree murder in 2009 for three of the murders and was sentenced to life with no parole for 15 years. The lengthy wait for trial isn’t likely to benefit Bacon. In non-murder trials, time in custody prior to trial often counts as double time when sentencing is given. However, that’s not the case in murder trials. Typically, time served will come off the time required for parole eligibility. For murder charges, time spent in jail prior to a conviction is counted as straight time.

In total, Surrey spent $655 million running the city last year – an 8.5-per-cent drop from the year prior, in which $760 million was spent. FILE PHOTO

Cost of running the city dropped last year ▼ SURREY SPENT $655 MILLION ON CAPITAL PROJECTS AND OPERATIONS IN 2014, DOWN $65 MILLION FROM 2013 KEVIN DIAKIW

It cost about $65 million less running the city last year compared to the 2013, according to financial figures released by the city last month. The 2014 Statement of Financial Informations details how much money was received by the city and where it was spent. In total, Surrey spent $655 million running the city last year – an 8.5-per-cent drop from the year prior, in which $760 million was spent. However, 2013 was an anomaly, with costs up significantly from the year prior, which totalled $555 million. In all, last year and the year before, costs increased more than $100 million from 2012.

Abbotsford I N T E R N A T I O N A L

Money paid to third-party suppliers dropped last year by almost $20 million to $582.9 million. Staff costs rose by $9 million to $170 million last year., The big earners with the city are former city manager Vincent Lalonde, who earned an annual salary of $250,212, followed by General Manager of Finance and Technology Vivienne Wilke, who earned $234,593, General Manager of Planning and Development Jean LaMontagne at $223,793, General Manager of Parks, Recreation and Culture Laurie Cavan at $221,926, General Manager of Operations Gerry McKinnon at $204, 662, Fire Chief Len Garis, who made $201,414, and City Solicitor Craig MacFarlane at $192,090. Last year, city council rang up $635,056, a significant drop from 2013, when council cost $805,000. The biggest drop was in salaries, partly due to a decision by exiting councillor Marvin Hunt to not collect a civic paycheque after he was elected to provincial office. The Statement of Financial Information is a provincially mandated document which must be filed every year before the end of June.

Surrey RCMP are investigating a pair of separate stabbings that took place within 40 minutes of each other on Thursday night. The two are not linked, police say. At about 10:55 p.m. Thursday, police responded to a report of an argument between several men in the 13200-block of 108 Avenue.

During the verbal exchange between the man and about four to six others, the lone man was stabbed in the torso. The others, who are not known to the victim, fled. The victim was taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. The 36-year-old victim from Surrey is cooperating with police. Police believe it may have been a robbery attempt, but haven’t been able to interview the victim again. Then at 11:35 p.m., police were called to a stabbing near 100 Avenue and Semiahmoo Road in

▶ PROPERTY CRIMES ON THE DECLINE from page 1

The police said in a release there has been a recent drop in the number of shootings, in part because of a multi-jurisdictional clampdown on the people believed to be involved. The statistics released Friday are made public by the Surrey RCMP every quarter, as was mandated by council as part of the Crime Reduction Strategy in a move toward further transparency. Overall in Surrey, most violent crimes were on the increase, including sex assault (up 65 per cent), abduction and kidnapping (up 55 per cent), and robbery, which was up 33 per cent. No community in Surrey was spared the spike in violent crimes. Cloverdale/Port Kells saw the biggest jump at 46 per cent, followed by Guildford/Fleetwood at 41 per cent. Newton fol-

lowed with a 33-per-cent jump, and South Surrey was right behind with a 31-per-cent spike. Whalley saw the lowest climb in violent crime at 28 per cent. Sex assaults were also up dramatically across the city, with the only drop being in Whalley, which decreased by 11 per cent. The most dramatic rise in sex assaults was in Cloverdale/Port Kells, which increased by 150 per cent (four to 10). It was followed by South Surrey, up 100 per cent (from five to 10). In Newton, sex assaults climbed from 22 to 43, a jump of 95 per cent, while Guildford/ Fleetwood sex assaults shot up from 13 to 23, an increase of 77 per cent. They’re the kinds of number that are “unacceptable in any city,” according to Surrey Mayor Linda Hepner. The mayor said she doesn’t place too much stock in numbers based

only on quarterly changes, as many things can affect crime stats in a short period. She’s more interested, she said, in trends over a longer time span. “When you judge the safety of a city, you have to take in mind more than what does a quarterly stat look like?” she said. Bright spots in the second-quarter statistics were a decrease in thefts over $5,000, which fell by 33 per cent, a 21-percent decrease in residential break-and-enters, a 28-per-cent drop in identity theft and a 12-per-cent decline in business break-and-enters.

“I am pleased to see that property crime is down in our city as a result of the hard work of our target teams and residents and business owners who are taking steps to protect themselves and their property,” said Chief Supt. Bill Fordy, Surrey RCMP’s Officer in Charge. “While the news is not as good in our violent crime category, the focus we’ve placed on the shooting conflict and robberies with our law enforcement partners is leading to arrests and charges that will hopefully drive crime down as we continue to apply significant pressure to these offenders.”

time,” TI Corp. CEO Irene Kerr said. TransLink also raised the toll on the Golden Ears Bridge earlier this summer, but the increase there was not as much – five cents to $3.05 per crossing. The Port Mann increase comes after a revised TI Corp. financial outlook made public earlier this year showed annual operating losses had climbed above $100 million per year because the number of drivers using the bridge and the resulting toll revenue has not met original forecasts. But Kerr rejected suggestions that was a driver of this summer’s toll hike. “We’re right on track for meeting our financial obligations and paying back the debt,” Kerr said. The total project debt has climbed to $3.6 billion from an initial project cost of $3.3 billion and 2014 actually saw a 3.9 per cent decrease in Port Mann bridge use. TI Corp. expects improved performance in future years. Traffic has been up so far in 2015. There were 112,300 crossings per day on average in June, up 5.6 per cent from the same month a year earlier and up 3.1 per cent from June 2013. Kerr was unable to provide any guidance on the pace of toll increases motorists should expect in future years. “Our goal has been to keep the toll as low as possible and minimize increases,” Kerr said. NDP transportation critic Claire Trevena said drivers continue to pay the price for a project

that has failed to meet expectations. “The forecast in 2006 was for almost 149,000 daily crossings by 2013,” she said. “The actual crossings are nowhere near that.” Higher tolls may drive use down further, worsening the financial picture and the congestion at free crossings, Trevena said. She said the province should give drivers “fair warning” of how tolls are expected to rise in the future, as BC Ferries has done by telegraphing its intent to raise fares two per cent in each of the next four years. “There was no plan or strategy here. This toll increase came completely out of the blue.” The TI Corp. is charged with ensuring the project costs are paid off by 2050, when tolls on the bridge are supposed to end. Medium vehicles – cars with trailers, cube vans and motor homes – will now pay $6.30 per crossing instead of $6, while larger vehicles like commercial trucks and buses will pay $9.45 instead of $9. The toll for motorcycles rises from $1.50 to $1.60. The tolls are what registered TReO users pay because their vehicle’s decal is automatically detected and their account is charged. Non-TReO vehicles pay an additional billing fee that reflects the costs of scanning their licence plates and mailing out paper bills. More than 1.5 million vehicles are registered with TReO, about twothirds of all vehicles in Metro Vancouver.

Witnesses sought in fatal accident KEVIN DIAKIW

A 70-year-old woman is dead after being struck by a car in Delta last month. On Sunday, July 26 at about 2 p.m., a woman was walking with her husband north on Scott Road at 72 Avenue. She was struck by a car making a right turn from 72 Avenue onto Scott Road. Police say the driver remained on the scene and gave assistance until the woman was transported to hospital, where the Delta resident succumbed to her injuries. As a result of initial investigative efforts police believe there were witnesses to the collision that have not yet spoken to police. Delta Police are asking those people to come forward so they can get a better idea what happened. Witnesses are asked to contact Const. Grayson Smith of the Delta Police Traffic Section at 604-9464411 and quote file 15-15680.

VIEWPOINT

The Surrey-Nor th Delta Leader Wednesday August 5 2015

Cutting off the West Part of the problem with our Ottawa-centric federal government is that it can’t seem to understand why anyone in B.C. would be displeased about services – any services – being centralized “back East.” But that’s just what is happening with the Civilian Review and Complaints Commission for the RCMP. The federal government has decided to close the B.C. office – located in Surrey – and save costs by centralizing staff in Ottawa. While the RCMP investigates complaints about individual officers, the commission is intended as a further recourse for complainants who remain unsatisfied, or for addressing wider issues about RCMP policies and practice in general. The decision to close the local office removes another access point for a level of independent oversight on the force at a time when, some would argue, even greater

oversight is needed. There may be justifications for the move – a commission spokesperson says the office did not itself conduct investigations and hadn’t done any mediation recently, while eight full-time staff affected in Surrey are, we are told, either retiring or leaving voluntarily. And the work that the Newton office undertook, we are assured, will still go on in Ottawa. But it’s particularly bad optics at a time when B.C. residents continue to have lingering, and troubling, concerns about RCMP actions – ranging from the Robert Dziekanski tasering, in connection with which former officer Monty Robinson has just been sentenced for perjury, to the recent shooting of Anonymous collective member James McIntyre during a protest at a BC

RAESIDE

Hydro meeting in Dawson Creek, to the July 18 death of 20-year-old Hudson Brooks outside the South Surrey detachment. And, as B.C. Justice Minister Suzanne Anton has observed, the move – in the largest RCMP jurisdiction in Canada, where 37 per cent of all the country’s Mounties are stationed – was done with no consultation with provincial officials. The federal government, it seems, is perfectly comfortable with this lack of consultation and doesn’t seem to be aware, or much care, that unilateral decisions of this kind only serve to goad locals. It may be wise to remember that, in politics, perceptions are everything – particularly when those perceptions reinforce long-held suspicions B.C. has about its lack of representation in Ottawa.

Prospects for B.C.’s biggest investment BC VIEWS ▼ Tom Fletcher

Now that the political back-andforth is over, there are two questions left about the Petronas-led proposal to make the biggest private-sector investment in B.C. history. Will it actually happen? And is it a good deal or a bad one? Premier Christy Clark ducked the first question on the day the project agreement for Pacific Northwest LNG was approved by the B.C. legislature. “After many predictions about the Canucks and the Alberta election, I don’t make predictions any more,” Clark said. “But I can say that this project has gone farther than any of our critics said that it would.” For what it’s worth, my prediction is on record: it will go ahead. The latest evidence is the company’s continued, costly effort to gain federal and local approval for a suspension bridge to Lelu Island to minimize the marine impact. Lax Kw’alaams Band members could not have had details on that change from an underwater pipeline when they voted to oppose

the project in May. Is it a good deal? The mayors of Prince Rupert and Port Edward have made their views clear – they see it as a lifeline for an area that has struggled for years with a faded forest and fishing industry. The B.C. NDP is also now clear, having voted against the project agreement in the brief summer session of the legislature that concluded last week. Whether the project proceeds or not, this will be a key election issue in 2017. NDP leader John Horgan and other MLAs made much of the lack of job guarantees, pointing to similar projects in Australia. Natural Gas Development Minister Rich Coleman issued a statement with excerpts from the state of Western Australia’s agreement for the Gorgon LNG project. The so-called guarantees contain qualifiers like this: “... except in those cases where … it is not reasonable or economically practical to do so,

use labour available within Western Australia.” Obviously there were no job guarantees, which could only exist in a command economy, in other words a communist dictatorship. Everyone agrees that specialized trades such as welding alloys for low-temperature operation will be brought in. And LNG processing trains will be shipped in pre-fabricated from places like South Korea, as they have been in Australia and elsewhere. Pacific Northwest LNG is on record with federal regulators that in the latter stages of construction, the use of foreign labour for the project could reach 70 per cent. Does that make it a bad deal? Perhaps B.C. could attempt develop this expertise from the ground up. It seems to me that was tried with aluminum ship fabrication, and it didn’t work out too well. For David Keane, president of the

B.C. LNG Alliance, the question is how many large LNG projects, pipelines and all, can be managed at the same time as the Site C dam is being built. It was skilled labour shortages, and particularly a shortage of supervisors, that caused Australia to lose some of its proposed projects. Keane said all LNG proponents here want to use as much local labour as they can, because it’s less expensive and it builds local support. And he disagrees that B.C. is a sweet deal for the industry. Among other things, pipelines have to be built across two mountain ranges. Not only that, B.C. producers would pay an LNG income tax, which is a first in the history of the industry. Add to that PST, GST, payroll taxes, municipal taxes and federal and provincial corporate income taxes. Add aboriginal revenue sharing, and we have a deal.

‘I just want my neighbourhood back’ ▼ THE CITY AND POLICE NEED TO CLEAN UP THE AREA AROUND CHUCK BAILEY REC CENTRE I have been a citizen of Surrey since 1999. Lately I’ve been noticing a severe lack of law enforcement in the Whalley area, particularly at the Chuck Bailey Recreation Centre. I am a skateboarder and I have been using the Chuck Bailey Skate Park since its initial inception. Every year the rate of vagrancy at the park just seems to double. Every single day there are at least 15 or more people sitting in the grass around the park smoking and using needle-based drugs out in the open. They litter their needles and garbage and also defecate in the covered bowl section of the park. They relax in the sun with lawn chairs and tents with no care in the world doing any number of illicit activities. I have repeatedly called both non-emergency and emergency numbers to tell them to come get them out of the park. Several times it takes at least 30 minutes to even two hours for an officer to show up. When they eventually do show up, they take a look around, assess the situation,

then proceed to tell me they can’t do anything or they just tell one person to get out of the park. On the flip side, if a parent or a recreation centre worker calls in for someone smoking pot or drinking beer, the police will be there immediately with several squad cars and hand out tickets to everyone. I fully understand that the use of marijuana and alcohol in pub-

lic is illegal and I always tell my friends to do it elsewhere. What stuns me the most is the “super cop” mentality they have when it is for someone smoking pot or drinking. They ID every person, and search through people’s bags. I’ve seen them several times deal with vagrants with drugs and weapons on their person and have let them turn around and leave, with no ticket and defi-

▼ IT’S SUMMER TIME, AND THE FEDERAL ELECTION IS LOOMING Gosh, it is hard to think about an upcoming national election while in the midst of summer. With so many things to see and do, summer trips, barbecues and parties, the beach and reunions, it is the furthest thing from our minds. However, some of us might find that we have more time on our hands – an excellent opportunity to ask our local MPs about their party’s platform. I, for one, want to know which party will commit to getting us closer to the goal of

As others have said, charging for water makes it a commodity which, under NAFTA, could then be shipped by Nestle to the U.S. and Mexico. Nestle wants to buy and sell our water, but once a price is established and they pay more we may eventually pay more too... bottled or not. Gary Huntbatch, Abbotsford

committing 0.7 per cent of Gross National Income (GNI) for international aid spending. Please note that 0.7 per cent is less than one per cent. Can we not find it in our hearts and in our pockets to give those less-fortunate a hand up? Our aid contributions currently stand at just 0.24 per cent of GNI, and have dropped from $5.65 billion in 2012 to $5 billion in 2013, to $4.2 billion in 2014. Meanwhile, the UK has passed a bill that enshrines in law its commitment to spend 0.7 per cent of its GNI on aid every year, making it the first G7 country to meet the UN’s 45-year-old aid spending target. In 2013, only five other countries – Sweden, Norway, Luxembourg, Denmark and the United

nitely no better understanding of common sense and the consequences of illegal activities. I have tried working with the City of Surrey and even have put together several solutions for their problems and I have gone unheard. I have requested City of Surrey staff to come and tell people to move along and they always give me the same two answers: they will call the police, or there is nothing they can do about it.

I’ve attempted to take matters into my own hands and have kindly asked people to move along and have been threatened with bear spray and knives. This is absolutely not a responsibility I should be taking on, but I have to make it my responsibility for my safety and the safety of others around me. My friend even attempted to take the responsible route to pick up some garbage around the park and in doing so, he was pricked by a discarded needle. I just want to have my park and neighbourhood back. It’s hard to enjoy the beautiful recreation centre and skate park when there is so much negativity going on around it, not to mention the feelings of hopelessness I get when I try to call for help. I’m putting the spotlight on you, City of Surrey and Surrey RCMP. Spend one day in the area and tell me that there is nothing wrong. Other concerned citizens, go spend an hour and go look at the area. Ask yourself, would you feel safe with your children playing in this area? It doesn’t just end at the skate park. People find needles all in benches in the baseball field in Tom Binnie Park. Everyone must take a stand and take our city back. The vagrancy issue absolutely cannot be swept under the rug any longer. Calvin Dignard

▶ HEALTH CARE EXECUTIVE: NICE GIG IF YOU CAN GET IT I appreciated Jeff Nagel’s article about Fraser Health executives (“Fraser Health executives paid $2.3 million in 2014”). I had just had lunch with a friend who told me about working for Fraser Health. It was well known that the head of their department never came out of their office in their last year before retirement and how some staff take two-hour lunch breaks but the workers who confront them are treated like trouble-makers. So the poop definitely rolls downhill. Keep up the good work. Cheryl Berto Surrey

Arab Emirates – had met or exceeded the 0.7-per-cenet aid spending target. The Netherlands had consistently met the target, but fell short in 2013. Canada must prioritize international development by committing to increasing our aid spending to 0.7 per cent of our GNI by the year 2020. C’mon, pull yourself away from the barbecue or hammock for just a few minutes, or maybe an hour, and do a little research so that you are armed for that fall election. Better yet, let your MP know your thoughts while he or she is home enjoying those hazy, lazy crazy days of summer.

Connie Lebeau

Bill Barwick, Australia

I am attempting to contact descendants of Florence Mabel Sayers (1900-1990) of Surrey, B.C. Two daughters, Diane Manning of Surrey and Fern Phillips of Enderby, B.C. were living at the time of her death. Her husband, Donald William Sayers passed away in 1950. Two children, Donald Allan Sayers and Florence Gladys Wreggitt, predeceased her as well. Her funeral notice (March 3, 1990) mentions numerous grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Florence’s uncle, Harry Course formerly of Winnipeg MB, was my great-grandfather. I am working on a family history and would like to make contact and hopefully share and exchange information with Florence’s family. I can be contacted using my email: whbarwick@ hotmail.com

▶ FASSBENDER HAS EXPERIENCE WITH TRANSLINK from page 3

Fassbender headed the province’s negotiations with B.C. teachers during last year’s strike. He held out for a negotiated settlement the province achieved rather than legislating teachers back to work, as had been the pattern in several previous teacher strikes. The removal of TransLink from Transportation Minister Todd Stone’s portfolio comes in the wake of the defeat by Metro Vancouver voters of a plebiscite on the creation of a 0.5-percent regional sales tax to fund transit expansion.

Fassbender, a Surrey MLA, has extensive history on the TransLink file as a former Langley City Mayor who once chaired the Metro Mayors’ Council as it tried to persuade the province to grant a new revenue source. Stone as minister made statements supportive of the mayors’ plan and the new tax but did not actively campaign for it during the plebiscite required by Clark on any new tax. Fassbender, along with Surrey-Panorama MLA Marvin Hunt, was more blunt, at one point speaking out against “no” campaign critics of TransLink’s record.

“Is it totally mismanaged? I don’t believe that, I never have,” Fassbender told Black Press in March, pointing to audits in recent years. “The previous commissioner looked at it and said it was a well-run organization.” Metro Vancouver board chair Greg Moore welcomed Fassbender’s new role. “It think it’s a good move,” the Port Coquitlam mayor said. “He has a deep understanding of the legislation and not only the challenges but also the opportunities of being able to work together to find solutions for TransLink.” Moore noted Fassbender,

▶ CITY BRIEFS

Help for harried commuters BLACK PRESS

The City of Surrey will be the first municipality in the province to install a real-time Travel Time Information System which will help improve the flow of goods and vehicles within the region. The system will also provide data to the city’s Traffic Management Centre and the City of Surrey’s website. “This project will improve the efficiency of the transportation network as a whole,” said Mayor Linda Hepner in a news release. “By making this investment into our community, we are improving movement of goods and people within our city which results in a better city for all who live and work in Surrey.” The system will employ Bluetooth technology and Dynamic Messaging Signs on key corridors that correspond with major truck routes in Surrey. Multiple routes are proposed

for detectors that will allow travellers to select the optimal route of travel based on real-time traffic conditions. Coun. Tom Gill, chair of Surrey’s Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, said the system is a significant step forward in improving Surrey’s ability to monitor and manage traffic. “With a population of over 500,000 residents and growing, the efficient movement of goods and traffic are top priorities for the City of Surrey,” said Gill. “The Travel Time Information System will benefit both regular commuters and commercial vehicle traffic.” Data collected from this project will also provide input into future transportation planning and infrastructure improvement projects. On July 27, Surrey council approved the funding of 50 per cent of the $2-million

installation cost of the Travel Time Information System. The remaining half will be funded by the federal government as part of the Asia-Pacific Gateway and Corridor Initiative.

Surrey sees record number of brush blazes Surrey is burning at an unprecedented rate, as a continued heat wave and dry foliage has contributed to 270 brush fires so far this year. It’s double the amount of blazes in Surrey in all of last year, and if the trend continues, Surrey fire crews will have to attend more than 450 brush fires this year. Assistant Fire Chief Steve Robinson said it’s quite likely this city will see that many fires this year. Last week alone, fire crews were called to 15 fires a day. For the most part, city

officials say the fires are completely preventable and the huge spike has prompted a warning from Surrey fire crews and the Surrey’s mayor. “I urge all residents to use extreme caution at this time to prevent fires in our city,” said Mayor Linda Hepner. “With the unprecedented dry weather we’ve had this summer, it is incumbent that we all play our part to protect our parks and public spaces.” The city says bylaw officials will be out in force this weekend to ensure

people are adhering to a total fire ban. Those caught, will be given fines of $200 and may face prosecution. Robinson said it’s quiet likely the fire restrictions will remain in place at least until the water restrictions are lifted, which is expected to be by the end of September. Anyone who sees people barbecuing or having a fire in city green spaces is urged to call the fire department at 604-5436700 and if there’s a fire out of control, call 911 immediately.

High rollers help push gambling to new record â–ś B.C. LOTTERY CORPORATION PROFIT HITS $1.25 BILLION WITH RISE IN BET LIMIT JEFF NAGEL

Foreign gamblers who bet up to $100,000 in a single hand in some B.C. casinos helped drive the provincial government’s gambling take to a record high last year. The B.C. Lottery Corporation’s (BCLC) net profit that goes to the province climbed 6.8 per cent to $1.25 billion in 2014-15, up $80 million from the previous year. The corporation’s annual report says the increase was driven by “exceptional performance� from high-limit table games, which saw the maximum bet raised from $75,000 to $100,000 at some sites. Casinos such as River Rock in Richmond and the Hard Rock Casino in Coquitlam offer “ultra-private� high-limit VIP poker rooms and baccarat salons that are popular with Asian tourists. The increase from high-limit gamblers offset weak results in lotteries, which were down because the year served up fewer large jackpots. While BCLC has gained from high rollers, the report warns their interest could wane. “The recent slowdown in some national economies and international currency restrictions present business risks,� the report said, without explicitly mentioning China, where the Beijing government has posted lower growth estimates and intervened to prop up a falling stock market. “There is risk in this revenue stream as it is heavily dependent on a relatively small

B.C. casinos brought in more money last year.

international player base,� BCLC board chair Bud Smith said in the report. “We know we cannot rely on this business segment for sustainable long-term growth.� In fact, BCLC considers both lottery and casino revenues to be mature and “facing market saturation.� An estimated 51 per cent of B.C. adults gambled through BCLC at least monthly last year. That rate has fallen from 69 per cent in 2012 but BCLC is aiming to get it back up to 55 per cent next year. The average B.C. resident lost $482 a year to BCLC, up from $450 in 2012 and $382 in 2005. More than $950 million in net BCLC profit came from casinos and slot-equipped community gaming centres, compared to $304 million from lotteries and e-gaming. River Rock had the highest combined slot and table game revenue of $420 million last year, followed by $204 million

at the Grand Villa Casino in Burnaby, $150 million at Vancouver’s Edgewater Casino, $125 million at the Hard Rock Casino Vancouver, $109 million at Starlight in New Westminster, $106 million at Cascades in Langley, and $53 million at Fraser Downs Racetrack and Casino in Cloverdale, where an expansion and rebranding under the name “Elements� is underway. Overall, $1.04 billion was lost gambling at those Lower Mainland casinos in 2014. Net profits from BCLC help the province fund health, education and grants to community groups. Host municipalities also get a share of casino profits. Out of each dollar gambled in B.C., 43 cents goes to provincial and community programs, 23 cents goes to prizes, 23 cents goes to commissions and fees, nine per cent is operating expenses and two per cent is federal tax.

‘The plot was all there’

Surrey’s Rose Seiler Scott has written a novel about German refugees in Poland around the time of the Second World War – a story that parallels her own family’s history.

▶ ROSE SEILER SCOTT USES A NOVEL WAY TO TELL HER FAMILY’S HISTORY

BOAZ JOSEPH

The next morning Liesel and the boys waited at the station platform with dozens of others. A notice on the wall read: The German population of Łódź will be resettled to an area west of the river Oder. Each German is allowed to take no more than 20kg of luggage. Inventory of all dwellings and farms Houses and farms (sic) in an undamaged state are the property of Poland. Apartment and house keys must be left outside. Dwellings to remain open. Those who are not in compliance with these orders will be executed. – Excerpt: Threaten to Undo Us, by Rose Seiler Scott BOAZ JOSEPH

When Rose Seiler Scott was 10 years old in the early 1970s, her grandparents were about to celebrate their 40th wedding anniversary in Surrey. The pair had just had portraits taken, and Rose’s mother Dorothy was having trouble deciding which of the small proofs she would have enlarged. In some of the photos, her grandparents looked happy, in others, stern, gazing into the distance. Rose’s mother sought a neighbour’s assistance in choosing and the neighbour pointed to one photo which had serious faces and declared “that one tells a story.” The young girl began to ask questions, which over the years amounted to an incomplete, but interesting family history. A typical family, in theory. But the Seiler family, on her father’s side, was ethnic German, and farmed in central Poland as far back as the mid-19th century, until they were broken up and uprooted at the end of the Second World War. The Seiler family story is told by Rose in fictionalized form in her first novel, Threaten To Undo Us,

which was published in May. “I tried to make the family history as accurate as possible,” she says. There are parallels in the story with the real family, including a mother of four children in the midst of the war (the real one had five children in tow) and the gradual unravelling of the life she knew. The character Liesel – an alternate version of Scott’s grandmother Eugenie – struggles to get to the Oder River, the new western border of Poland as the Soviets retook the country from the Germans. The civilian history of the region is seldom told, or even discussed – victors tend to write history – but involved the migration of millions of ethnic Germans from the “East.” Scott struggled though official histories written in German – “it takes me an hour to translate a paragraph” – and found few public accounts by those who emigrated that were written in English. (Being German in the years following the

war was not a source of pride or subject of sympathy in the West, so most new immigrants kept quiet). Scott, 52, a part-time piano teacher and mother of four, researched the subject off and on for about 12 years. But her family’s history, even when told her in bits and pieces over the years, was a catalyst for writing the novel. “The plot was all there,” says Scott. It’s important, she says, to remember where we came from. Growing up, Scott learned about the war and the Holocaust, and felt that history included everyone – even that of her father Oswald, who was a seven-year-old German boy when the war ended. Oswald currently lives in Surrey with his wife Dorothy. Rose Seiler Scott will host a book signing of her novel on Aug. 9 from 1:30-2:30 p.m. at Black Bond Books, #1-15562 24 Ave. Threaten to Undo Us is available in paperback or for download at Amazon.ca, as well as in-store and online at Chapters and Black Bond Books.

The Salish Orca is to begin service in late 2016 on the Comox-Powell River run, while the Salish Eagle and Salish Raven begin carrying passengers in early- to mid-2017 on the Southern Gulf Islands route. The three intermediate-class vessels replace the Queen of Nanaimo and the Queen of Burnaby, which began service in the mid-1960s. The new ferries are being

built in Poland by Remontowa Shipbuilding at a cost of $165 million. They’ll be the first dual-fuel ferries in the fleet, able to run on either liquefied natural gas or diesel for propulsion and power generation. The names were chosen as part of a contest that drew more than 7,000 entries, along with satirical ones that lampooned BC Ferries’ challenges on social media.

P. Redhead is a little more dramatic with larger bunny-tail plumes that really stand out year after year. Miscanthus grasses also create magic. There’s a new trend towards smaller, more compact varieties, like my favourite Yaku Jima with its tiny flower heads that bouce back and forth in the wind. The drama queens are the larger four- to fivefoot grasses with large showy flower heads. Even without plumes, variegated miscanthus, like Cabaret and Cosmopolitan, are quite the showstoppers. Speaking of variegation, M. Strictus (Porcupine Grass) is always a hit with its yellow horizontal stripes up and down the stems. A little smaller but very elegant, M. Morning Light is a favourite for use in containers. For a pop of late summer colour, newer

varieties, like M. Ghana and Agassiz Red have rich autumn coloured foliage, as well as amazing plumes. With so many planters looking tired right now, the more compact varieties of grasses can turn a boring planter into an interesting display. Fiery-red Japanese Bloodgrass, the new Beyond Blue fescue, the new carex grasses, like Everillo, Eversheen and Everlime, are all amazing by themselves or together in combination with virtually any contrasting foliage. There’s never been such a wide selection of ornamental grasses available to add a fresh pick-up and fun to our summer gardens. They love the heat and once established, are very drought tolerant. Many are evergreen too and carry their beauty into winter. Brian Minter is a master gardener.

Seniors Come Share Society is expanding ▶ NORTH SURREY LOCATION EXPECTED TO OPEN THIS FALL MELISSA SMALLEY

Elderly residents and caregivers in North Surrey will have easier access to a host of support programs, when Seniors Come Share Society opens a new location later this year. The expansion, announced at the society’s recent annual general meeting, will see a new site in the Guilford area for its popular day program, which will accommodate 21 seniors,

Legacy fund for female soccer

according to Come Share’s executive director Sue McIntosh. Not only will the new location mean less travel time for many Surrey seniors, McIntosh said it will help to alleviate the wait lists for the two current locations in South Surrey and Newton. “For individuals in the north, they have to come down with HandyDart or have family drive them to one of the other programs,” McIntosh said. “This means more people will be able to get in the door and benefit from our programs.” Come Share’s day program offers seniors therapeutic and recreational activities, as well as meals, health monitoring and

the benefit of socializing with other seniors. The society – now in its 38th year of operation – also provides information and referral services, a friendly visitor and community meals program, telephone tree volunteers to check up on elderly residents and a volunteer lawyer clinic. McIntosh noted that over the past fiscal year, Come Share has connected with more than 51,000 seniors and their families in White Rock and Surrey. The new North Surrey location is expected to open Oct. 1, and is currently undergoing renovations to meet the program’s needs, McIntosh said.

JEFF NAGEL

The B.C. government has established a $100,000 fund to promote female participation in soccer, to carry on the interest generated by the recent World Cup games that set new attendance records at BC Place stadium. Community workshops will be held around the province this fall, with speeches by Canadian soccer personalities and free workshops to develop more coaches, officials and volunteers. More than 122,000 players are registered with the B.C. Soccer Association. While more than 40 per cent of athletes are female, only about 20 per cent of coaches and officials are. Nine World Cup games were held in Vancouver, with nearly 300,000 spectators. Canada’s quarter-final match against England was played before 54,000 people, the largest crowd ever in Canada for a national team match in any sport.

There’s never been such a wide selection of ornamental grasses available. PHOTO SUBMITTED
