LONG ELECTION CAMPAIGN LAUNCHES
▶ SURREY, NORTH DELTA SEE CHANGES IN FEDERAL RIDING BOUNDARIES; PUNDIT SAYS TORIES HAVE EDGE JEFF NAGEL
Surrey and North Delta will be going to the polls this fall with a few more choices. The federal election campaign has officially started, as Prime Minister Stephen Harper has set in motion a process for a 78-day campaign – the longest in
modern history. Locally, a redistribution of federal election boundaries means there will be more federal politicians in North Delta and Surrey, as the number of ridings in those areas boomed from four to six. Delta is now a standalone riding, rather than sharing its boundaries with
Newton prior to 2013. Newton is also now its own riding. Cloverdale has been hived off from South Surrey-White Rock and now shares Langley City for representation and Surrey-Centre replaces Surrey-North. Fleetwood-Port Kells remains the same.
The changes are a result of population growth in this area. The prime minister visited Governor General David Johnston at Rideau Hall Sunday morning to dissolve Parliament and begin the election set for Oct. 19. continued on page 3

▶ ARSONIST MAY HAVE TORCHED HIMSELF, A HOUSE AND HIS OWN GETAWAY VEHICLE, POLICE SAY KEVIN DIAKIW
Police are investigating the possibility that an arsonist accidentally lit himself on fire, then ran to an SUV which his burning body set ablaze. On Wednesday at 1:30 a.m., crews responded to a fire at a home in the 7900-block of 134 Street. When they arrived, they found the garage door of a home and an SUV on fire about a halfblock away. Police believe the fire at the home was intentionally set and that the person who set it may have been on fire when they got into the SUV, setting the vehicle ablaze.
Surrey fire crews douse a flaming SUV found not far from where a home was set on fire in the 7900-block of 134 Street. Police believe the home was set ablaze intentionally and the arsonist accidently lit himself – and his getaway vehicle – on fire. SHANE MACKICHAN PHOTO

▶ LONG CAMPAIGN MEANS HIGHER COSTS from page 1
The voting day had been fixed in legislation and party leaders had been in campaign mode for weeks, but dropping the writ this far ahead means spending limits will be in force for much longer than the typical 36 days. That will give a financial advantage to Harper and the Conservatives, according to SFU political scientist Patrick Smith. “They certainly have the largest war chest,” Smith said. “Money matters in politics.” He predicts the Tories will far outspend their rivals and might be in a position to blitz advertising channels late in the campaign when NDP and Liberal coffers may be nearly exhausted. A campaign more than twice the usual length means a spending limit twice as high – more than $50 million per party – that only the Tories have a realistic shot at fully exploiting. “They have more money than the other parties so they can withstand a longer race.” The early writ drop means third-party advertising – such as union-funded anti-Tory attack ads by Engage Canada – will now be subject to a tight $200,000 spending limit, largely clamping down on their influence. That was a key motivation for starting the campaign now rather than waiting, Smith said. “It shuts up third-party advertising and at the moment they see that as problematic.” A long, financial war of attrition on the hustings could have ramifications beyond who actually wins the election. Smith currently predicts a Conservative minority. In that scenario, he says, a cash-depleted or possibly indebted Opposition will be less inclined to topple a minority Tory government and force a new election. “They’re not likely to try to trigger an election in the first six months, so that helps stabilize a Conservative minority,” Smith said. “So people who think about the longer game will be thinking
about those kinds of things.” The longest campaign in more than a century will also mean higher costs to taxpayers. Elections Canada’s costs will be higher to mobilize staff earlier. And more spending than usual by the parties would translate into a higher government subsidy back to the them for use in future campaigns. As for significant issues, Smith expects the federal push for new oil pipelines across B.C. will hurt the Conservatives in this province. But he said the slowing economy will be the dominant issue on voters’ minds in deciding which party to support. Another month of economic contraction could make a suspected recession official by September. Smith isn’t sure that would necessarily be bad for the PM. “If the economy is bad, do we have to stay with Harper because he’s the best man to manage it or does he get the blame?” The bigger danger for Harper is that “once people start humming the change tune, it’s pretty hard to reverse it.” ▶ “If the For the Conservatives to win even a minority, the Tories may economy is bad, need the anti-Harper vote split do we have to as evenly as possible between the Liberals and NDP, Smith said, and stay with Harper many votes bled off by the Greens because he’s as well.

B.C. Supreme Court in Vancouver has ordered the closure of two controversial lodging houses in North Surrey, however, the owner told The Leader Wednesday he plans to appeal the rulings. The two homes, one at 13901 Hansen Rd. and another at 11409 142 St., must be returned to single-family dwellings by Sept. 30, the court ordered. It’s the ruling long waited for by several residents in the community, who say they are fearful of the many alleged drug users who occupy the homes. Each house has had in excess of 100 police visits. After trying to remedy the situation for close to a year and a half, the City of Surrey took the matter to court. Mohammed Izaz, who says he owns the home with his wife Shamima Bi – who is named in the court documents – said the couple plans to ▶ “If human appeal the findings of the beings are court because they didn’t legal representation. not allowed to have The lawyer handling the case for them was in help human hospital, Izaz said. beings, “The lawyer was in intensive care,” Izaz told then who is The Leader. “We were allowed to not even told we were going to court on these help?” days.” MOHAMMED IZAZ He said he hasn’t read all the findings in the court documents, but he asserts the two houses provide shelter to two families apiece – well within Surrey bylaws. He feels he’s being unfairly picked on by the city because of the service he provides. “Because I just help the homeless people get the shelter,” Izaz said. “They don’t want the homeless people to live in homes, they just want them on the street.” Nonetheless, the courts have ordered that Bi return the two “lodging houses” back to single-family dwellings, as required by Surrey’s building bylaw.

TEENAGER DRIVERS Teenage drivers crash more than average. In those crashes last year, ICBC says that 54 died. 70% of those were guys. Many more were hurt. Assume your kid will crash their car when you buy one for them. And focus on crash test ratings and airbags. Even going 60km/h, a head on crash is going to be bad. In a poorly built car, it will be worse. Before you spend money on your kid’s first car, you should look at the videos for some of the used ones that have been head crashed by the NHTSA in the United States. You should also avoid anything without an airbag. I have many ICBC cases involving head strikes. These cases are typically much worse where there is no airbag in the car to slow your head from hitting the wheel or window. John M. Green | Lawyer

Development opponents say rejection short-lived TRACY HOLMES
A proposal to build 16 duplex units across the street from homes on acreage in Grandview Heights was denied third reading at Surrey City Hall last week. But residents who oppose the project stopped well short of calling the move a victory, saying the message from council is that duplexes on the site will still be the end result. “We might as well not even showed up,” said Gary Cameron, of the July 27 decision regarding Tara Developments’ application for the 16600-block of 26 Avenue. “There was no indication (council) heard anything we said about the development.” Tara Developments has applied to build 16 semi-detached units and one single-family home on approximately two acres. The application received first and second reading on July 13, despite a planning report recommending council refer the project back to staff and the applicant “for further dialogue with area
residents to address outstanding issues.” Those issues include residents not wanting high density in the area. They want development that is more consistent with what already exists: single-family homes, and sensitive transitions that protect the neighbourhood from encroaching urbanization. Following a public hearing July 27, council voted 5-3 against giving the application third reading, then, on a motion from Coun. Dave Woods, voted to refer it back to staff. Cameron – who helped collect more than 350 signatures in a week on a petition against the application – said the message he heard from council Monday is that a similar project will ultimately proceed. “They were basically saying the will of council is, ‘we’re going to keep high-density duplexes’,” he said. “It’s been sent back. But we’ve been told it’s going to be roughly the same development no matter what. It wasn’t a resounding victory by any means.” Residents told council the developer has refused to consider their concerns, which include that the project does not fit with the character of the large-lot neighbourhood. Other developers have
been much more receptive to compromises, they said. That point was reiterated a number of times during Monday’s public hearing, prior to the votes. Architect Mark Ankenman, however, noted the project falls within the guidelines of the Neighbourhood Concept Plan (NCP), completed in 2012. “If there’s a range of opportunities in the NCP that the neighbourhood doesn’t want, then that range of opportunities shouldn’t be in the NCP,” he said. Ankenman told council he regrets getting to this point in the process without an agreement with neighbours. In voicing opposition to third reading, Coun. Judy Villeneuve noted the residents’ interest for more dialogue. The petition, she added, is “something that we need to listen to.” “I hope if it’s referred back to planning, then somebody will move,” she said. “I do believe that a sensitive interface is important… and this project just isn’t there yet.” Mayor Linda Hepner, noting her support for the project, described it as a good compromise that will provide more options for people who want to live in properties that look like large estate homes but can’t afford to.

In one house, power and cable have been fed into a garage where people are living, and people pitch tents on the lawn. There are also padlocks on the outside of doors, making the houses a potential deadly fire trap, witnesses say. The court ordered that the city may enter the Hansen Road property on Aug. 4 to remove the padlocks. Izaz said he will file for an appeal immediately and take the case to the highest court in the country if necessary. “Even if I lose this appeal, I will go to Canada’s Supreme Court, the highest court. If not, then God will punish them,” Izaz said. “If human beings are not allowed to help human beings, then who is allowed to help?”

The Surrey-Nor th Delta Leader Fr iday August 7 2015
THIS WEEK’S QUESTION: Have you already decided which federal party you will be voting for this coming election? To answer, go to the home page of our website at surreyleader.com
Last week we asked: Do you remember visiting Santa Claus (aka Percy Hayes) at Guildford Town Centre? Here’s how you responded:
Yes 70% No 30%
Fresh start for TransLink Peter Fassbender ran for the B.C. Liberals in 2013 because he wanted to get things done. He believed the party could win an election that pollsters and most members of the public thought would be a cakewalk for the NDP. He was right. He won his Surrey-Fleetwood seat, which had been held by the NDP’s Jagrup Brar, by 200 votes – with that narrow margin of victory likely due to an intensive door-knocking effort in the final weeks of the campaign. He talked with voters about jobs, growth and issues that mattered to them. He served as mayor of Langley City for eight years until his election as an MLA. During that time, he served for a period as chair of the Mayors’ Council - which has limited oversight powers over TransLink. Fassbender has long believed in a long-term vision for transportation in the Lower Mainland, one which would see the province, TransLink and municipalities co-ordinating their planning efforts. He is now in an ideal position to help bring that vision to fruition as the community, sport and cultural development minister in charge of TransLink. TransLink is not broken. It actually does a pretty good job of operating rapid transit, buses, roads and bridges. It is short of funds to take on ambitious new
projects, and the recent defeat of a plebiscite to add 0.5 per cent to the sales tax to give it more funds has focused a great deal of attention on it. TransLink has not been accountable to taxpayers. Its private board has closed meetings. It has other subsidiaries with their own private boards. Directors pay themselves handsomely and they pay top staff handsomely as well. Mayors have minimal oversight powers, yet under the TransLink legislation, they are the only elected officials with responsibility for the tax dollars it collects – other than the provincial minister in charge. It also needs to do a better job of communicating with its customers, particularly when there are major breakdowns and disruptions, such as when SkyTrain is shut down for hours. Fassbender has seen the organization from a mayor’s perspective and now he will see it from a provincial perspective. As a Surrey MLA and former Langley City mayor, he also knows the critical need to expand TransLink services in the fast-growing South Fraser region. Knowing all these perspectives well is a huge benefit. He has promised there will be significant changes by the end of the year, and has called on the board to
suspend its search for a new CEO until the future direction has been made plain. Hopefully, long-term planning will be co-ordinated so that plans for a Deas Island bridge, more universal (and lower-priced) tolling, new rapid transit projects and bus service expansion are all considered at the same time, and not by different government agencies ensconced in their silos. After all, there is only one taxpayer. Fassbender was given the education minister’s job when elected. His mandate there was to reach a bargained contract with the B.C. Teachers’ Federation. It was a tough task but he hung in there, and to his credit (and the BCTF’s), they managed to reach a contract at the bargaining table – a rarity in B.C. education labour relations. That won him a lot of credibility with his boss, Premier Christy Clark. Now he has a new task. This new challenge won’t be easy. Some of the mayors won’t be happy that he will be overseeing TransLink. But he will ensure that the organization adopts the kind of change it needs to go forward and he will not sidestep accountability.

Prison reform is an election issue YOUTH VOICE ▼ Japreet Lehal
Imagine being in a confined space for months on end, with little contact or communication. Earlier this year, a lawsuit was initiated against the federal government regarding its segregation, or solitary confinement, policies in prisons. According to the B.C. Civil Liberties Association (BCCLA), “solitary confinement… is the practice of confining a prisoner to a cell and depriving him or her of meaningful human contact for up to 23 hours a day, sometimes for months and years at a time.” The current form of solitary confinement which exists in our prisons is not effective or ethical. In fact, many prisoners facing mental health illnesses are simply placed in solitary confinement, which does not help alleviate their illness. Solitary confinement should not be
used in lieu of addressing underlying health problems. The BCCLA notes a form of confinement, “administrative segregation,” for instance, lacks adequate accountability, as prisoners do not receive a “hearing before an independent body” and prisoners may be left in solitary for indefinite time periods. The government should take into consideration the calls for action from numerous individuals and organizations on this issue. Prison reform needs to be on the agenda in this year’s election debate, because this issue is linked to crime, poverty, equality, mental health and community safety. Greater political discussion on prison reform would help highlight the significance of this issue, bring change to the
system, and encourage greater political will to remedy the problems that exist. Greater action needs to be taken. Howard Sapers, Canada’s Correctional Investigator, has also called for changes to the current system of dealing with prisoners. The Office of the Correctional Investigator notes that solitary confinement is used excessively. Sapers would like to see the government restrict initial administrative segregation to 30 days, implement “judicial oversight,” and stop such segregation from being used on prisoners of a certain age and those who are mentally ill. In 2012, the UN Committee Against Torture also urged Canada to make changes to its treatment of prisoners,

Minister urges pause on hiring of new TransLink CEO â–ś GOVERNANCE, PAY LEVELS MAY BE REFORMED FIRST, PETER FASSBENDER SAYS JEFF NAGEL
Communities Minister Peter Fassbender is urging TransLink to pause its search for a new permanent CEO while mayors, the board and the province consider possible governance reforms. The suggestion from Fassbender, the newly appointed minister responsible for TransLink, may ease concerns from Metro Vancouver mayors about the pay and bonus provisions for the next CEO after an online posting by TransLink offered the same compensation package as the old CEO. “It’s not just about the compensation issue,� Fassbender said. “Any person worth their salt is going to want to know clearly what their terms of reference are, what are
their responsibilities and whose responsible to whom.� He said he wants mayors, the board and the province to meet as soon as possible about possible changes and “have that hard discussion before any suggestion is made about a new CEO.� Fassbender also said he intends to quickly appoint two directors to the TransLink board to represent the province, joining the two mayors who sit on the board as had been anticipated in the previous governance changes. The defeat of this year’s plebiscite on a 0.5-per-cent sales tax hike for TransLink has spawned some accusations that the outcome puts mayors in exactly the box the premier wants – able only to raise TransLink property tax-

es but not tap any other new revenue source. “The mayors will only be in a box if they put themselves there,� Fassbender responded, adding he wants to explore all potential options to increase transit funding. Fassbender said road pricing – which mayors want to study – deserves a “serious and concerted look� to determine how and when it might work. “I think it has potential here but it’s not going to happen overnight,� he said. “In the meantime, how do we continue to build a system that needs expansion and provide more buses and more services for underserviced regions?� A delay in the hiring of a new CEO would also allow more time for mayors and the board to come to agreement on new lower limits for executive compensation – mayors feared a new
CEO would be hired at the old rates otherwise. “It makes absolute sense,� said Belcarra Mayor Ralph Drew. “The governance model that the province has provided is nothing short of a gong show,� Drew said. As for how much a new CEO should be paid, Drew suggested it be in the $250,000 to $300,000 range, but without bonuses. That would be approximately what many provincial government deputy ministers are paid to run complex ministries, but not as much as a number of other public sector executives. Former TransLink CEO Ian Jarvis, who was replaced in February but continues at the same pay as a consultant until his contract runs out, receives a base salary of $319,244. Bonuses, pension and other benefits
took his total compensation to $440,000 last year.

nother week, and we are told that there is a Fiat-Chrysler precedent-setting recall announcement: the highest penalty yet imposed by the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (“NHTSA”) on a car manufacturer for mishandling recalls. In 2014, General Motors paid $35 million for failing to notify regulators in a timely manner and failing for a decade to recall about 2.6 million small cars with faulty ignition switches linked to at least 124 deaths. At the end of that same year, Honda Motor Co. was fined $70 million for lapses in reporting possible safety problems with its Takata airbags. Fiat-Chrysler has now allegedly topped these with its $105 million fine plus other unprecedented penalties imposed via a consent order. These include submission to an audit by an independent monitor of the company’s recall processes for up to four years, and the obligation to repurchase many pickup and heavy-duty trucks and sport-utility vehicles, model years 2008 to 2012, for loss of vehicle control caused by suspension problems. In the consent order, Fiat-Chrysler reportedly acknowledged lapses relating to the completion of 23 recalls affecting more than 11 million vehicles including older Jeeps with gas tanks mounted in the rear crumple zone linked to more than 50 deaths from gas tank explosions following rear end collisions. Wire service reports note that it is unclear how the total fine breaks down in relation to each of the 23 recalls under investigation. They note, however, that the NHTSA is authorized to impose a maximum fine of $35 million for a single recall not completed in a timely manner.
The so-called ‘fix’ for the affected Jeeps is the installation of trailer hitches to mitigate the impact of rear-end collisions but government investigators have criticized the rate of these repairs as “slow and sporadic.” In general the reports say the transgressions are threefold: “misleading and obstructing regulators; inadequate and lagging repairs; and failing to alert car owners to recalls in a timely manner.” One report says that $15 million of the total fine is a deferred penalty payable if the terms of the consent order are violated going forward. Fiat-Chrysler’s troubles may not end with this fine, however. In a law suit in Georgia brought by the parents of a 4-year-old boy killed in a “fiery rear-end Jeep crash” in which the jury initially awarded $150 million in damages, although the award was reduced to $40 million, the company’s request for a new trial was denied. An appeal of this ruling remains a possibility. News reports suggest that Mr. Sergio Marchionne, the CEO of Fiat-Chrysler is openly seeking a merger based on his belief that, in general, the auto industry must consolidate to meet the challenges of electric and autonomous (self-driving) vehicle development and compliance with increasingly stringent environmental standards. And it’s time for Fiat-Chrysler, General Motors and Ford to negotiate a new four-year labour contract with the 140,000 memberstrong United Auto Workers Union. Industry commentators say that Fiat-Chrysler faces the toughest challenge of the three, because, while having added thousands of jobs during the last four years, its workers received less in profit-sharing bonuses than their counterparts at Ford and GM. We should remember that building cars has never been an easy business. How many hundreds of automobile manufacturers started in the early 20th century and how many are still surviving?

Fish fence project celebrates 20 years of SHaRP success ▶ MURAL IN BLACKIE SPIT MARKS TWO DECADES OF YOUTH-DRIVEN COMMUNITY WORK TRACY HOLMES
From left: Cassidy Patton, 18, Kenzie Tran, 18, and Sonya Kang, 17, work on a legacy ‘Stream of Dreams’ fish mural last Thursday (July 30) in Blackie Spit Park. TRACY HOLMES
The North Shore mountains created a majestic backdrop for a colourful legacy project that unfolded along a fence in a corner of Blackie Spit Park last week. “It turned out really well,” said JP Hervieux, co-leader of the Salmon Habitat Restoration Program (SHaRP) Watershed Enhancement Team that installed approximately 70 painted wooden fish in the “Stream of Dreams”-style mural. The project, done with the Stream of Dreams Society, was to mark SHaRP’s 20th year of protecting and enhancing fish habitats in the city. Employing high school students for the summer – and post-secondary students as team leaders – SHaRP crews’ efforts also include invasive plant removal, riparian planting and

water-quality testing. Since its creation in 1996, more than 540 students have been a part of the program. Hervieux said the wooden fish that now grace the Blackie Spit fence in Crescent Beach – near the Maple Drainage Pump Station – were painted during a reunion event about two weeks ago, when 170 SHaRP alumni gathered to reminisce. He noted the mural project is half of the legacy effort. The other is further north, near the Scott Road SkyTrain station, where an area was cleared of blackberry bushes and replanted. On Thursday, the team also placed “woody debris” in a site immediately east of the fish mural in Blackie Spit, in preparation for fall planting. Hervieux said the logs would help bring moisture into the area. And the day before, they worked with Ducks Unlimited to remove invasive spartina from the Nicomekl estuary.

WHAT IS INVISALIGN TEEN? Invisalign Teen is the virtually invisible way to straighten your teen’s teeth without the restrictions that come with metal braces. Rather than wires and brackets, Invisalign® uses a series of clear, removable aligners that have been custom-made for your teen’s teeth. Your teen simply wears them over their teeth and changes them out for a new set of aligners approximately every two weeks. Little by little, your teen’s teeth gradually shift into place, achieving that confident smile. IS INVISALIGN AS EFFECTIVE AS TRADITIONAL BRACES? It can be when worn according to the recommendations of an experienced Invisalign-trained orthodontist. Invisalign Teen can be as effective as traditional braces for the most common teeth-straightening issues. Invisalign can effectively treat mild to severe cases, including underbite, overbite, overcrowding and gaps between teeth. The chances are very high your teen will be a great candidate for Invisalign. To find out for sure, contact our certified Invisalign Teen orthodontist office and come in for a consultation. HOW LONG DOES INVISALIGN TEEN TREATMENT TAKE? The average treatment time is about the same as with traditional braces, but the actual length of your teen’s treatment depends on the severity of their condition and can only be determined by your orthodontist.

fielding error allowed a Rebelles runner on base, and she never advanced beyond first. Goddard finished the first stage of the tournament with a 4-0 won-loss record without giving up an earned run or a walk, striking out 24 batters. She allowed just three hits in 16 innings pitched. Megan Palmer pitched the fifth inning in relief, striking out the three batters she faced. Moore with three hits, Watson, Baldry and Samuelson with two each were the leading batters. Watson also scored three runs, while Samuelson was credited with three RBIs. The Heat moved on to the second round, placed in a four-team group for a round robin. The top two advance to the eightteam double knockout playoff. Also in the second round in Montreal are the Surrey Storm ‘98, the bronze medalists at the provincial tournament. The Surrey side has won two of four games. Storm ‘98 struggled in their first game Sunday against the Alberta-champion Calgary Kaizen, falling 11-0 in five innings. Demi Rose and Taylore Jones singled to account for the only two hits from the Surrey side. The Storm recovered Monday afternoon for a 7-3 victory over the Winnipeg Lightning. Brooke Derkson was three-for-four with an RBI and a run scored for Surrey, with Noelle Johnson adding a pair of hits. Jessica Fasolino was the winning pitcher, allowing three unearned runs on three hits. She had nine strikeouts and didn’t allow a walk. Fasolino collected another complete-game victory Tuesday morning, throwing a two-hit shutout as the Storm edged the Brampton Blazers 1-0. Fasolino allowed just two singles, didn’t give up a walk and fanned 10 Brampton batters. The Storm made the most of just five hits, getting three of them in the bottom of the seventh to score the game-winning run. Singles from Emily Manhao, Derkson and Emily Chorpita led to the game’s only run.
