Neighbours question City of White Rock’s explanation of ‘naturally’ occurring settlement

Sinking feeling for Marine residents Melissa Smalley Staff Reporter

One of at least four properties affected.

Marine Drive residents are questioning the city’s explanation as to why their waterfront homes have sunk several inches over the past eight months. Significant sinking is visible on at least four properties in the 14700-block of Marine Drive, including a home rented by Terry Bird, who said the ground has shifted noticeably since

December. The fence separating his backyard from his neighbours’ used to be level, and now slopes downward towards the front of the lot. “I’ve adjusted the gate in the backyard twice since Christmas,” Bird said. “There’s something going on back there.” On his neighbours’ driveway, there is a gap of close to six inches between the steps leading to the front door and ground. The City of White Rock’s manager of engi-

neering, Bob Ambardar, told Peace Arch News Thursday that the city became aware of residents’ concerns about the sinking in March. The city consulted with the geotechnical engineer working on the nearby under-construction neighbouring development, who surveyed and monitored the area for the next three months, and said no settlement was detected over that time frame. i see page 8

One-month memorial

Keeping vigil Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

One month to the day after Hudson Brooks was shot and killed by police outside the South Surrey detachment, family and friends held a candlelight vigil at the site, determined to keep the 20-yearold’s death in the public eye. Dozens of candles were lit, hugs were shared and tears were shed during the evening event Tuesday, which drew an estimated 50 people – some of whom didn’t even know Brooks. The South Surrey man died around 2:30 a.m. July 18, after police responded to reports of a man screaming in the 1800-block of 152 Street. Police allege a struggle ensued and Brooks was shot. An officer also suffered a non-life-threatening gunshot wound, however, investigators confirmed two days later that only police-issued firearms were found at the scene. Many continue to call for answers. Brooks’ mother, Jennifer, said at the scene that she is trying to stay positive, but still can’t come to terms with how the officers’ interaction with her son could have gone so wrong, and why a lesslethal degree of force wasn’t used. Concerned that the issue will fade from people’s minds before the Independent Investigation Office’s

Police officers meet with Grandview neighbours

Search goes on week after brutal attack Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

With the accused in last week’s barbaric assault of a senior in South Surrey still at large, forensic experts are expediting analysis of evidence seized from the scene in the hopes of identifying and locating the man responsible. “I understand the lab has given priority to this investigation, because it’s a stranger sex assault,” Surrey RCMP Cpl. Scotty Schumann told Peace Arch News Wednesday. “So they’re analyzing the evidence quicker than what would normally be the turnaround time (on such tests).” The evidence was seized Aug. 12, after a 70-year-old woman was attacked in her 28 Avenue home in Grandview.

A man who entered the home with a weapon around noon restrained the woman, then assaulted her when she couldn’t comply with demands for cash and other items. After he left, the victim was able to free herself and fled to a neighbour’s for help, calling police just before 2 p.m. Police flooded the area in an effort to locate the intruder, to no avail. A safety warning was issued hours later – after details of what was initially reported as an “interrupted breakand-enter” came to light – followed by the release of photos of the suspect obtained from an ATM near 200 Street and 40 Avenue. Schumann said none of the public’s tips received so far have led to the suspect’s identity.

Earlier this week, the victim and her husband expressed appreciation of the emergency crews’ response, and the support they have received in the days following. The victim told PAN she feels stronger every day, and together, the couple is determined not to let the crime change their lives. Police have also reached out to neighbouring residents, through a meeting held last Friday at an area school. (Media were not invited.) Hosted by police and crime-prevention officials, it was attended by more than 65 people, including several of the victim’s immediate neighbours, Schumann said. It was intended to provide emotional support, as well as an opportunity to field questions and provide tips on personal and home security.

A similar meeting following last month’s murder of Cloverdale real estate agent Colin Hill was “very successful,” Schumann said. “People really appreciated the fact that police were there after the fact answering their questions and just reassuring them.” He said such a meeting is particularly important “when a suspect is still at loose.” “People are very concerned about their safety, about how this can happen in our neighbourhood, what are the police doing.” Schumann noted that despite a perception that police could be doing more, a tremendous amount of work can’t be disclosed to protect the integrity of the investigation. Anyone with information is asked to contact the Surrey detachment at 604-599-0502.

Animal seizure

SPCA advises charges Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

Charges of animal cruelty will be recommended in connection with the seizure last week of 57 animals from a South Cloverdale property. SPCA senior animal protection officer Eileen Drever confirmed this week charges against one woman under both the Criminal Code and the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act are expected to be forwarded to Crown counsel next week. Last week, BC SPCA officials investigating a complaint of animals in distress seized 35 dogs, 16 horses and six cats from a “disgusting” situation of neglect, without proper access to water, food or shelter. The animals were in various states of malnutrition, and the horses’ hooves were “grossly overgrown,” Drever said at the time. She told Peace Arch News Wednesday that officials had immediately sought a warrant to access the property when the complaint came in – instead of posting a notice requesting an inspection appointment – due to familiarity with the so-far-unnamed woman. “We’ve known this individual for 20 years,” Drever said. In the past, she said, investigators have arrived for appointments to find the animals had been removed. On Aug. 11, “we didn’t even knock on her door,” Drever said. “We just applied for a warrant right away, and this is what we found.” In addition to seizing nearly five dozen animals, the SPCA issued orders to address the conditions of approximately 15 other horses that were in less-severe states of distress. The owner was ordered to call in a veterinarian and a farrier, provide food and water, and clear the property of any hazards. Drever said a follow-up visit one week later confirmed those orders have been followed, and said monitoring will continue. i see page 8

Karna Balsillie says she is still awaiting a fair hearing on why her moorage contract at Ward’s Marina was terminated by the City of Surrey.

Couple claims unfair treatment by City of Surrey

Longtime boaters want to share their side Alex Browne Staff Reporter

Boat owners Karna and Gord Balsillie are hoping they can get answers from the City of Surrey about why their contract for moorage at Ward’s Marina has been terminated – and why they face seizure of their boat. In September of last year, the couple – who have moored boats at the marina on the Nicomekl River for 23 years – heard that the moorage contract for their 40-foot cruising catamaran, Elysium, was being terminated for a series of violations. The Balsillies, who deny they have violated the contract, say they have been trying to get a hearing from city staff to tell their side of the story, but without result. Instead, they have received formal warning by the city that unless they move their boat the city intends to sell or otherwise dispose of it. Surrey media liaison Oliver Lum told Peace Arch News staff are not able to comment on the case as it is the subject of pending legal action. But Karna Balsillie said the couple have yet to receive formal notification of proceedings. She also noted that, in a sheaf of correspondence dating back to September of last year, they have dealt with at least seven different members of

city staff, without being granted a face-to-face meeting to discuss the issues. And, she said, they have also submitted cheques to pay for their continued moorage, which have not been accepted by the city. “This is our retirement,” Karna Balsillie said, adding that while the couple have largely finished refurbishing the Elysium in the seven years since they bought it, work still remains to be done on the interior. She said the boat is insured for $70,000, though she believes that it could reach $250,000 and beyond on the market when fully restored. She noted the couple have retained a lawyer, and have also received confirmation that the B.C. Ombudsman’s office is investigating. Even if they could be proven culpable of some offence, she said, they deserve a chance to discuss and resolve any issues. “We don’t want to be unreasonable,” she said. “If a third party made an independent decision, we’d go along with it.” In a Sept. 29, 2014 letter from the Surrey parks department, they were told they had been living onboard the vessel, had stored personal assets at the marina’s washdown pad without authorization, and that they had extended use of the washdown pad and boat

repair building beyond the specified term. It was further alleged they were storing personal vehicles on city parkland near the marina without authorization. Balsillie said they vehemently reject the allegations, and have asked the city to provide the “written, anecdotal and photographic” information it claims to have. A request to extend their moorage contract had previously been granted by the city on compassionate grounds, she noted, when repair work had to be delayed because the couple was dealing with a family illness. On their side, they say they can produce support letters from many Mud Bay Yacht Club members, who note their long record of positive contributions to the boating community. Balsillie said word that they are “being kicked out of Ward’s Marina” has circulated, making it difficult to find moorage elsewhere. She said she believes they are being victimized by complaints from one or two individuals, without being given a chance to respond. “We’ve talked to a lot of people and they say ‘it sounds like a witch hunt’ or ‘it sounds like a vendetta,’” she said. “Are we fighting city hall? I guess we are. If they can do this to us, they can do it to anyone.”

Supply shortage, increased prices as dry weather continues

Drought spurs hay hoarding Kevin Diakiw Black Press

Horse and cattle ranchers are stocking up on hay, as wild fires and a protracted drought continue to cause both supply shortages and increased prices. Marilyn Murdy, a bookkeeper with Cloverdale’s Vanderveen Hay Sales in Cloverdale, said the big trucks started showing up about a month ago. Ranchers and farmers are stocking up. Prices have climbed about 15 to 20 per cent, and Vanderveen is immensely busy. In her six years with the company, Murdy has seen it get hectic, but it appears ranchers are preparing for a shortage. “As far as trailer loads of hay, I’d say it’s busier this year,” Murdy said. Hay growers typically get three to four cuts of the perennial crop each year. So far, most hay growers have about three cuts harvested, but because of the heat this summer, crops have gone dormant, much like a lawn. That leaves growers waiting for rains to bring that next crop up to harvestable levels. For Jerry Keulen, of Delta’s Seabreeze Farms, it means about a 30 per cent reduction in his crop of grass and corn. “The crops are hurting because of the dry conditions,” Keulen said Wednesday. “We’re definitely getting one crop less than typically.” Seabreeze is also a dairy farm, and the crops are used to feed the cows. Keulen has had to buy feed from Washington State, as it was the only area that could provide him the volume or quality he needed. He’s not panicked by the changes, but says he has to be adaptable. “We’re not worried or nervous, but we do look at the whole picture,” Keulen said. “Adapting to climate change is what this falls under.” The shortages seem to be largely regional. Some areas of B.C. are reporting little or no impact, while others say production is down 50 per cent. The drought has been compounded by the large number

Animals deserve our attention

hen it comes to animals, there’s no question the difference they can make in our lives, and vice-versa. They can lift our spirits, benefit our well-being and make us better people all-around. In turn, we have the ability – the responsibility – when we make the choice to own one, be it a family pet or a working farm animal, to ensure that they are well-cared-for, with everything they need to live content, healthy lives. In recent weeks, Peace Arch News has reported on a range of animal/human stories. Sadly, the majority have been heartbreaking: Aug. 7, a seven-year-old girl was attacked by a family friend’s dog; Aug. 11, BC SPCA seized 57 severely neglected dogs, cats and horses from a South Cloverdale farm; and this week, animalcruelty charges were announced against a woman accused of jamming lighters, jewelry, a fish hook and other objects down a dog’s throat. Off-setting the sickening side of things is today’s story featuring Semiahmoo Animal League Inc., a South Surrey-based non-profit that works with rescued farm animals and at-risk children to break the cycle of violence (page 11). There are many lessons to be learned from these stories. From the attack on the little girl, we are reminded that animals can be unpredictable, and no matter how loving we know them to be, the reality is they can react in ways we don’t expect, when we least expect it. From the SPCA seizure – which spurred an outpouring of support from the community – it’s fair to conclude that not everyone should own animals. As for the animal-cruelty case involving the Labrador retriever – and in any case where an animal is intentionally harmed – words to describe those who are ultimately held responsible are not suitable for print. We can only hope such people are appropriately punished – and never allowed to own any animal. We can take some comfort in knowing there are people, such as the SPCA constables involved in last week’s seizure, who act swiftly when they can to rescue creatures that, through no fault of their own, fall victim to the neglect or abuse of an unsuitable caregiver. And, we have the efforts of groups like SALI to tip the scales even further towards the positive. It’s up to all of us to foster the animal-human bond in a positive way, and be vigilant in holding accountable those who chose not to.

We bought a home in a neighbourhood with a lot of very good-looking lawns. Many of them are pampered by professional lawn care service providers. It means I have to care about my lawn more than ever before. And if there weren’t city regulations banning lawn sprinkling, it would mean I would be the only guy on the block with a lawn in desert camouflage. Either that, or I would be feeling extremely guilty about wasting water to keep up with the Joneses. However, I am happy to say my neighbours also have lawns that look as though they were imported from Sudan. Until fall, that is. Then they’ll all be back to fastidious trimming, and fertilizing and declaring war on every species of green growing things that are not in the Kentucky Blue gene pool. And, alas, so will I. In the early 2000s, someone wrote a book called How To Get Your Lawn Off Grass. It suggests there are many ways to dress up the property surrounding your house without committing to the lawn love affair. There are all sorts of attractive plants that don’t mind dry conditions, and they stay short without having to be mechanically decapitated every five days. Or how about rocks? You don’t have to mow rocks or water them. And they look good with moss. I wonder what the neighbours would think if I converted my lawn into riverbed.

Sounds from another time

Let U.S. ship their own coal

Densification not the answer

Editor: Oh, the joy I felt today when, at noon, walking past Five Corners. The carillon bells began to chime one of my favourite tunes from 1963, Nino & April’s Deep Purple. I apologize to my fellow pedestrians who had to listen to me singing this song to my husband as we walked home. To whomever programs the clock, I wish to say “thank you!” You made me smile. Heather Berger, White Rock

An open letter to Fraser Surrey Docks. Let’s start with the U.S.-Canadian border, White Rock and Crescent Beach, the area we live in. Let the United States export their own coal. We do not need more, or any, American coal dust and diesel exhaust. Those coal trains pass through these two lovely locations. The only entrance and exit to and from Crescent Beach is over the railway tracks. Can you imagine the results of a fire or swimming/ boating accident plus the long waiting periods as hundreds of rail cars pass through? Just the other day, cars were backed up to 128 Street plus all the cars waiting to leave the beach area. And this is going to be doubled! This is the beginning, then to the Fraser Surrey Docks, Fraser River, then large tankers all to follow and dust, dust and more dust. There must be a way to prevent this nightmare. Could some common sense be hammered into these individuals who only care about lining one’s pocket or the almighty dollar? Surrey Docks, take note. What’s wrong with a port in Bellingham? Peter Kirsebom, Surrey

Editor: Re: Discontent grows over highrise proposal, Aug. 14. Many people are asking how can my voice be heard regarding the development of highrises. There is a petition against highrise development going around White Rock with over 1,500 signatures. Add your signature to the list. Write to the editor of the Peace Arch News. Attend any meetings regarding highrise proposals. Write, phone or email the mayor and all council members regarding your disapproval of any bylaw changes to accommodate highrises. Attend council meetings whenever possible. Inform them how you would vote should there be an election if the highrises are approved. The proposal of a 15-storey highrise at the corner of North Bluff and Nichol will affect people immensely should it be approved. It is not in the downtown area of White Rock. The density, noise level and privacy of homes for blocks around will be affected. I have lived in my current home for 40 years. I appreciate the quiet single-family-home environment and do not want it to be destroyed

Individual accountability Editor: Re: Voting together at our expense, Aug. 14 letters. I want to thank Margaret Woods for her letter published in PAN. I have wondered why a two square miles of land that composes the City of White Rock needs a coalition government? I ask, what is a coalition? My Oxford dictionary states: an alliance for combined action, especially for a temporary alliance for political parties forming a government or of states. From this meaning of the word , what crushing matters required this temporary alliance? Is it temporary? To me it means “I’ll scratch your back while you scratch mine.” It also means no one individual councillor takes responsibility for what they really think and stand for. They don’t want us to know their beliefs and where they really stand. To me it means and results in what I believe Margaret Thatcher might have called “fuzzy-headed thinking.” No matter your beliefs, the results are that we do not know who is really ruling us. Should we be paying those who are afraid to take the public position that they were paid to do? It also raises the question of the basic intentions of those running. Is it for service to their community or general personal enrichment? Also, we have a mayor who seems to indicate he had no plans when he cleared the trees on the hump (We should have had bluff plan: Baldwin, June 3). As far as I know, he never indicated – or I have never heard – how many people demanded the White Rock Farmers’ Market start later each Sunday (Frustration over market start time, Jan. 29; Market disputes mayor’s ‘complaints’, Feb. 3). How does one confirm the complaints? Are they in writing? Who complained? The farmers market was in business long before the surrounding building and apartments were even built. It appears an ultimately small group have inconvenienced a large number of business people and indeed, most of the city residents and some visitors from the surrounding area. How and why would that happen? Elizabeth Millar, White Rock

by a handful of people on council. Be proactive and let your voice be heard while there is still time. Janis Lowe, White Rock Q If White Rock amends its Official Community Plan to accommodate the highrise proposal for North Bluff Road and Nichol Road, will that then open the door to unlimited highrises and other large multidevelopment projects outside the White Rock town centre? I’m concerned about the drain on our aquifer. We may think that an aquifer provides access to an unlimited supply of water in perpetuity, but an August 2013 Newsmax article states otherwise. A synopsis of this article: after a four-year study, researchers concluded that at the present rate, the Ogallala Aquifer, most important to Kansas agriculture, will be drained by 70 per cent in 48 years from now, in 2063. We may think that if White Rock drains its aquifer, that we could always join the Vancouver water supply. But Vancouver is already at stage 3. It is predicted that there won’t be much snowpack this winter, so likely next year will be the same. Let’s slow down and seriously think about the consequences of unlimited development and its implications for water shortages in White Rock. We are not immune to climate change here in White Rock.

There’s no obvious end in sight to the road work taking place on King George Boulevard and some of its crossroads.

Madness of King George et al. Editor: I do not understand what is going on with the roads in South Surrey. In particular, I do not understand the planning, or lack of it, behind the decisions being made that involve our roads. For a very long time, 24 Avenue had construction occurring on it from 148 Street to King George Boulevard. Initially, it was supposed to be for a period of about four months, but then it was lengthened, several times, until the sign telling us what the period of time was, simply disappeared. We have had a very long period of fine weather when the work on this road could have been finished, but it wasn’t. Now we have a sign telling us that paving will be occurring on this stretch of road up to King George Boulevard. The first sign told us the work would start on Aug. 11 and run until Sept 15. On the weekend, I decided to check this out and there was no sign that any work had begun. At the same time,

there are signs telling us King George Boulevard is being repaved between 156 and 160 Streets, during this same period of time. The work on King George Boulevard from 32 Avenue to Crescent Road hasn’t been completed yet; it is scheduled to run until December. What I would like to know is, why is everything being done at the same time, particularly with schools opening in a few weeks and people going back to work from summer holidays? These kinds of decisions create bottlenecks in traffic, at a time when the days are shortening and life is getting busier for everyone. I think that good planning would ensure that main arteries are disrupted for the shortest possible period of time and not during the busiest periods of time whenever possible. Further, I think there should be a system in place to ensure that when roadworks are to occur that they have to start and end on the date specified. Diane Eyre, Surrey

Public response ‘heartwarming’ i from page 3 Drever expressed appreciation for the outpouring of support that has been seen since news of the seizure broke. “We’ve had an overwhelming response,” Drever said. “We’ve had people offering to foster and to adopt and to donate and to volunteer. It’s been amazing.” Drever said some of the dogs and cats have already been adopted out. Once the horses are healthy enough, their profiles will be posted to spca.bc.ca and an open house will be arranged, where potential adoptive families will be able to meet them, and submit an adoption application and sealed bid. “They may not necessarily go to the highest bidder, but it will be the best home,” she said. Drever noted the interest and support from the public – the SPCA estimated the cost of treating the animals to be $20,000, and more than $40,000 has been donated – is appreciated in more

such poor shape. “If you could just thank everybody… It’s very heartwarming.”

Water pumping ‘monitored by city’ i from page 1 Ambardar said the city then hired an independent geotechnical engineer, who also concluded that any settlement in the area was caused “naturally.” “We did determine that there are peat deposits scattered throughout the area,” Ambardar explained. “The peat can be full of water and when it dries out, it can settle, sometimes quite rapidly.” Ambardar acknowledged it’s “unusual” to see sinking take place so quickly, but said one possible cause is the drier-thannormal winter the region experienced last year. Bird, however, said he doesn’t believe the shifting can be described as “natural,” and is among a handful of residents wondering if construction of Newport Living – a large residential/commercial complex underway since June 2014 – is to blame. “This isn’t normal for the amount of time it took,” he said. “Normal settlement is 10 years or so, not six months.” Ambardar maintained that both geotechnical engineers consulted by the city concluded the sinking was not caused by the excavation. PAN attempts to reach the developer of Newport Living were unsuccessful. Neighbour Bob Berger, whose

Stone stairwells leading to a basement entry in his home have collapsed, requiring repair, and a retaining wall has begun to separate from the house. His next-door neighbours recently replaced their driveway, after the ground sank so deep that they couldn’t get one of their cars out of the garage. The cost of repairs currently underway on Berger’s home – including damage caused when a vehicle crashed into his home June 3 – is estimated at more than $10,000. “For the city to tell us it’s due to a natural shifting of ground is

highly suspect for all of us here, because it happened so fast, and around the time that the excavation occurred across the street,” he said. Berger said he and other neighbours witnessed several springs of water bubbling in the excavation site when the hole was first being dug, and wonders if the water table was affected. According to Ambardar, however, when the excavation took place, there was “very little water” in the ground, and any water that was pumped out was monitored, recorded and provided to the city. While the city is aware of residents reporting spotting springs, Ambardar said staff did not observe any firsthand.

Semiahmoo Animal League Inc. preparing to host annual gala on South Surrey acreage

‘So much more potential’ at new farm Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

n organization that believes in the power of the animal/human bond to break the cycle of violence will celebrate its new home in South Surrey at a gala event Sept. 12. Semiahmoo Animal League Inc. took possession of the four-acre property in December, transforming its outbuildings and grounds into a haven for rescued farm animals and at-risk children. “It’s beautiful,” SALI founder and executive director Keryn Denroche said this week of the property, as she took in the freshly painted red barn, stable and chicken coop, new picket fences and a flourishing garden. “By us leasing this property, we’ve got so much more potential.” SALI was created in 2008, and, three years later, began offering programs for children aged three to 12 who have been exposed to some sort of risk or trauma, or are in danger of failing in school. The children – who attend by referral only – come for one hour per week for eight weeks. Each is paired with a SALI volunteer, and participates in one animal-assisted and one garden-focused activity per visit. The opportunities are often simple, and can range from working in the garden to feeding the animals or cleaning their enclosures. The key, said Denroche, is the tasks are purposedriven; they teach the children that they can contribute in a positive way, and that what they do matters. In return, the animals give the children

“We really believe it just takes that one person to say, you are of value.” Volunteer Corie Ladouceur agreed, describing the difference she saw in the children she’s worked with through the program as “amazing.” “All of them are so different and it benefits them in so many ways,” said Ladouceur, 18. “It definitely solidified that I want to work with kids and animals.” Denroche said the Sept. 12 Black Tails & Boots Gala is an opportunity for the public to see and feel what SALI is about firsthand. In addition to seeing the results of efforts by the “army” of volunteers who helped clean and renovate the property – including from Telus, Home Depot and Semiahmoo Rotary – gala guests will be treated to a gourmet dinner, and have the opportunity to meet the people and animals of SALI. Other highlights of the evening are to include live music, cocktails, farm tours and photos with SALI’s four-legged therapists. The gala is the organization’s biggest fundraiser, and all proceeds will benefit the children’s programs and animal care. Last year, it generated $20,000, and Denroche and Mayworm are hoping this year’s event will surpass that. Denroche said sponsorship opportunities are still available; as well, they are still looking for a few more auction items. For more information and tickets, visit sali. ca.

Good hearing but trouble with conversation? good solution for most people.

A lot of people have trouble catching what people say, especially in group situations, despite having good hearing. What a lot of people don’t know is that this may be caused by damage to the so-called motor or amplifier function of special cells in the ear. A new type of hearing aid can help balance this out. A great many people have difficulty hearing others clearly on a daily basis. Bad acoustics, unclear pronunciation, background noise and music often make it challenging to catch what people say. This results in them having to repeatedly ask questions, straining to hear and perhaps increasingly avoiding discussions in large groups. As mentioned earlier, this may be caused by malfunctions in special cells in the ear. According to a theory proposed by hearing researchers, “motor cells” are a type of hair cell responsible for amplifying quiet sounds. They vibrate up to 20,000 times per second. If these hair cells do not work properly then

Hair cells in the ear move very rapidly and can act as an amplifier or dampener. If these cells are damaged, they can no longer properly amplify speech and dampen loud noises.

quiet sounds are no longer naturally amplified in the ear and loud sounds no longer dampened. This leads to more difficulty in hearing what is said in a lot of situations. If the hair cells have been damaged by noise or blood circulation problems, hearing aids that amplify quiet speech and dampen loud ambient noise can be a

This improvement in hearing can be achieved for some clients through the new Phonak Audéo V’s hearing aids. This cutting-edge hearing technology comes in a miniature casing that can significantly enhance the user’s ability to hear speech in company. The hearing aids attune to the person you are speaking to and can also recognize if ambient noise increases in the background. Connect Hearing is currently looking to improve hearing for people who experience these challenges and want to try this new technology. We are particularly interested in candidates who have trouble hearing speech in the situations discussed above and can benefit from a demonstration to see whether they notice an improvement. Interested people can register for a free hearing evaluation and a no-obligation demonstration of the Audéo V hearing aids by calling 1.888.408.7377.

New Beauty Institute

new-beauty.ca

With a team of dedicated staff and a commitment to helping Peninsula residents look and feel their best with the latest revolutionary beauty treatments, it’s no wonder New Beauty Institute was recognized by the local business community. This year, New Beauty will be celebrating 13 years in business.

Settle the score with stubborn sagging arms and lumps and bumps like muf¿n tops.

The most popular and effective age-defying treatment is Ultherapy – Caree’s own secret weapon on aging. This amazing, non-surgical procedure targets the muscle first, then the Caree Ludwar dermis, and then the epidermis. Targeting all three layers results in an amazing improvement in the youthful appearance of your face and body, Ultherapy achieves amazing skin-tightening with no recovery time.

CoolSculpting is another service offered at New Beauty, and is one of the most popular because of it’s non-invasive technique, and because of how effective it is on menopausal fat. Developed by Harvard scientists, the patented procedure involves freezing fat cells without damage to your skin. No surgery, no downtime – just results. “The results are undeniable that is for sure,” Caree says. “Maybe the plastic surgeon can wait.” Call 604-541-8750 today. New Beauty is always offering free consultations, 1-8 pm, Mondays to Thursdays, and Saturday by appointment only.

10 WEEKS AFTER CoolSculpting® Session

C.Mok.

Caree, the owner of New Beauty, has been trained and certified in the USA, France and Canada – this is Caree’s signature treatment. This treatment provides an uplift to the chin, jowl and brow. You can start with the jowls, and when clients see it working they often come back to have the eyes done as well, erasing years from the face. Eyes are one of the most popular areas to treat and involves lifting the hooding of the eyelid which opens up the eyes. Bat wings are another popular “trouble spot” and contouring and tightening the arms, and smoothing cellulite are very popular treatments.

BEFORE

Show off the body you’ve always dreamed of. We are proud to announce that we now offer CoolSculpting®, the revolutionary new body contouring treatment that freezes fat. Patients are seeing undeniable and lasting results in as little as one treatment. There are no needles, no special diet, no supplements and no surgery. It’s FDA-cleared, safe and proven effective. Health Canada Approved.

Once Upon a Child

onceuponachildsurrey.com

As the parents of young twin boys, Jason Reader and his wife, Jennifer Branco, know just how quickly little ones grow out of their clothes, shoes and toys. So when the couple decided to team up with Jennifer’s parents, Roy and Linda, to start a family business on the Semiahmoo Peninsula, opening up a franchise of Once Upon A Child seemed like the perfect fit. The brand-new store, which opened at 3238 King George Blvd. earlier this month, Jennifer, Jason, offers customers a chance to sell and buy Roy, Linda gently used children’s clothing, toys, furniture and accessories. “We love this idea, because we know how infrequently our kids wore certain articles of clothing when they were small,” Jason explained. “So this whole idea of recycle and reuse really struck a chord with us. We see a need for this.” Having been open for just a few weeks, the store is currently in “open to buy” status, meaning they are gathering inventory from customers and will begin selling once they meet their inventory goal. For customers interested in selling gently used items, Jason said Once Upon A Child offers a great alternative to selling online or at swap meets. “Instead of just getting rid of your kids’ clothing, or trying to sell it online and wondering if someone is going to come pick it up, we offer instant cash in your pocket,” he said. Once the store moves into selling mode – Jason points out they will continue to buy items from all seasons year-round – they will offer clearance sales and grab-bag promotions. More information on the selling process is available on the store’s website – www.onceuponachildsurrey.com – which also offers tips and guidelines for selling gently used clothing, shoes, equipment, toys and accessories.

WANTED: Gently Used Kids’ Stuff We are looking for: Children's Clothing (newborn - youth size 20) Shoes & Accessories Furniture (Toddler Bed, Changing Tables, Bassinets, Dressers) Equipment (Strollers, High Chairs, Swings, Playards and more!) Toys & Books

Panorama Place Dental Centre

Dedicated to the personalized, gentle care you deserve. panoramaplacedental.com

It’s only human to feel a little apprehensive whenever we have to go see a dentist. The friendly staff at Panorama Place Dental Centre recognize that – which is why they’re determined to make coming in for a check-up or a procedure as comfortable as possible an experience for their patients. “It’s important that everyone feel relaxed,” said Dr. Cindy Neufeld, who practices in partnership with Dr. Monika Schneiderova and Dr. Zolt Keresztes. “Even though they’re in a dental office, we want them to feel like they’re going into chat with old friends.”

General, Family, and Cosmetic Dentistry Monika

In many ways it does feel like that for both long-term and even new patients – there’s a sense of continuity that comes from the fact that the clinic has been part of the community for 15 years and many staff members have been there for much of that time, Neufeld said.

Accepting new p patients in our modern, spacious South Surrey clinic!

The aim at Panorama Place Dental Centre is to provide a distinctive mix of experience, empathy and gentle, comprehensive care. Although currently on maternity leave, Neufeld said she knows that patients are in good hands for all their dental needs with Drs. Schneiderova and Keresztes. “And we have an amazing team working with us, who always put the patient’s needs first.” Panorama Place Dental Centre offers many services, including fillings, orthodontics and cosmetics, as well as oral sedation to provide localized comfort during procedures. The practice is also committed to providing information and clarity so that patients can make informed decisions about their oral health needs. “Between the three of us there is a lot of education, training and experience – which is why we’re able to offer so many different procedures,” Neufeld said. “Patients can be assured of getting the highest level of care.”

› from page 35 and Hoagy Carmichael’s Stardust and Georgia On My Mind. Dunnill is currently working on an album of his own original songs, but while he wants to raise the profile of his own material, he’s not planning to leave the covers behind anytime soon. “I want to have something to say with my music,” he said, adding that while he admires some contemporary songs – Take Me To Church, by Hozier, is an example – he finds he can learn a lot more from compositions from the past. “One of the best love songs I’ve ever heard is She, by Charles Aznavour – which Elvis Costello sang on the soundtrack of Notting Hill,” he said. Playing at Bin 101 has also taught him invaluable lessons in working with, instead of against, his audience Dunnill said. “Some nights I’m background music – some nights I’m putting on a show. People are in there to have their dinner. I’m not going to be screaming or playing Great Balls of Fire for four hours. “If they don’t applaud, that’s OK. Some people feel bad, and start clapping because other people didn’t. But I’m not there for that. “My job is to provide that piano lounge atmosphere, just like they did in the ’30s and ’40s.”

White Rock set for Little League World Series debut against Mexico

‘We are not just here for the ride’ Nick Greenizan

Sports Reporter

fter rolling through district, provincial and national championships – losing just a single game along the way – the White Rock AllStars are set to hit the international stage. Late Monday, the team of 12-year-olds arrived in Williamsport, Pa. – the longtime home of the prestigious Little League World Series – and today (Friday), they step onto the diamond for their first game, against Mexico. It promises to be a busy, exciting week for the Peninsula crew, and one full of new experiences. For starters, their audience will get a whole lot larger; they’ll play Friday at Volunteer Stadium in Williamsport – with a seating capacity of 5,000 – and the game will also be broadcast live on television, on TSN3. The tournament’s other venue – Howard J. Lamade Stadium – is even larger, with a maximum capacity of 40,000 fans. And when the White Rock Little Leaguers step out on the grass in front of all those fans, they’ll do so wearing Canada’s official colours, rather than the teal, black and grey White Rock uniforms they’ve sported since the beginning of the summer. Upon arrival at the World Series, the team was outfitted with black and red Team Canada threads. And though they are thrilled to be representing Canada at such an event, head coach Bob Cumiskey insists his young squad isn’t simply in “happy-to-be-here” mode. Put simply, their goal is to win. “Our expectations for Williamsport are to have a great experience, but also play the best baseball we can play and see where the cards fall,” Cumiskey told Peace Arch News. “Obviously, the best teams in the world are here, but we also feel we are very good and we believe in ourselves – we are not just here for the ride.” No Canadian team has ever won the Little League World Series, and no national team has made it to the finals since a squad from Stoney Creek, Ont. made it that far in 1965. White Rock teams have twice before represented Canada at Williamsport, during a two-year stretch from 2007-’08. In both tournaments, White Rock won once in three round-robin games and did not advance through to the playoff rounds. This year’s White Rock team has lost just once all summer – a one-run loss in a round-robin game at nationals last week in suburban Ottawa – and captured a Canadian title Sunday afternoon after a 16-0 victory

Right, the team celebrates its win at Canadian Little League Championships on Sunday. over East Nepean, Ont. “We thought (the game) versus East Nepean would be much closer, but our boys just came out swinging the bat early and took the home crowd out of it,” Cumiskey explained. No matter the outcome this week, Cumiskey said, the boys are “thrilled” to have accomplished what they have already, and also heaped praise on his home association. “It’s great to be another representative from (White Rock-South Surrey Baseball Association) as it shows the strength of all

our people who volunteer their time to grow the game of baseball,” he said. “The boys are over the moon to fulfill a boyhood baseball dream.” For more on the Little League World Series, including a full schedule (Canada’s game times beyond Friday’s opener depend on wins and losses), visit www.llws.org

Ball hockey gold

A handful of Surrey ball-hockey players returned home from national ball-hockey championships earlier this month with gold medals around their necks. South Surrey’s Jaden Bennett and Chayson Dosanjh – both Elgin Park Secondary students – along with Cloverdale’s Evan McCune and Surrey’s Arjun Raman, were all members of the B.C. Westcoast Wolverines, which won a U15 title in St. John’s, Nfld. The quartet of local players – who were named to the provincial squad after making it through six different tryout camps – helped the Wolverines defeat Alberta, 4-2 in the championship game.

Regional politicians tussled last month over whether Metro Vancouver board directors or the mayors’ council should set transportation policy if TransLink is reformed yet again. Some directors argued the mayors’ decisions on how to lead the plebiscite ‘yes’ campaign led directly to the defeat of a new sales tax to fund transit, and suggested they resign as a result. “The mayors’ council

of dollars spent,” Richmond Coun. Harold Steves said at the July 31 Metro board meeting. “In the public mind, the best thing they could do is resign.” The Mayors’ Council on Regional Transportation was created in the province’s 2007 reorganization of TransLink when elected officials were turfed off the board and replaced with unelected professional directors. Mayors were stripped of any real power over TransLink and left mainly with decisions on whether to approve tax hikes. “The public clearly wants a change in how transit is done in the region and I’m not quite sure that the public has huge confidence in the mayors’ council to effect that change,” added West Vancouver Mayor Mike Smith, who supports the Metro board and staff taking on any future transportation oversight role, as well spearheading the region’s position on TransLink reform. Smith was one of three mayors who voted against holding the plebiscite in the first place and also said the robocalling of residents to push ‘yes’ messaging backfired. “It just irritated the public and the results of the referendum speak for itself,” said Smith, who said the ‘no’ vote was also a backlash to mayors spending more than $6 million to “tell people how to vote.” The mayors’ council, meanwhile, has already threatened to quit its role in the governance of TransLink unless the province grants them more control and a new funding source to resolve the impasse that has followed the plebiscite defeat by the end of this year. That’s one reason why an urgent push is now on for the Metro regional district to potentially take on a major transportation

planning role, which would mesh well with its responsibility for regional land use planning. Supporters of the shift say transportation policy could be another arm of the well-staffed regional government, alongside its water and sewer utility functions. For now, the Metro board has agreed to work jointly with the mayors’ council in determining what new governance reforms to propose to the province. Vancouver Mayor Gregor Robertson said it’s important for regional politicians to remain united and avoid wasting effort drawing up duplicate, or possibly conflicting, prescriptions for what should come next. Some directors – including White Rock Mayor Wayne Baldwin – praised the premier’s naming of new communities minister Peter Fassbender, a former Langley City mayor who once chaired the mayors’ council, to oversee TransLink, adding he expects a “genuine effort” at reform. But Burnaby Mayor Derek Corrigan called it another rotation of ministers by the province that typically has come with promises of greater understanding for cities’ concerns – followed by another shuffle. “The way they change and pop up it’s a little bit like playing whacka-mole,” he said. Corrigan predicted a showdown is imminent with the province for ultimate control over TransLink, adding the current system is dysfunctional. “We’ve got to make a decision and tell the provincial government ‘Either you run TransLink or we run TransLink. But there is no in-between.’ The reality is there has to be one master that is going to be responsible for the decisions that are made in TransLink and are going to be accountable to the public.” Other directors said the region needs to examine whether it was wise to accept the tax trade-off that came with TransLink’s creation – regional taxpayers no longer pay a hospital construction levy but took more responsibility for funding transit.

Bus riders travelling from South Surrey may be in for some savings when fare changes come into effect next month. File photo

Monthly pass users could recoup more than $500 per year

Surrey bus riders may save Earlier this month, TransLink announced the end of multi-zone fares for bus travel. So how much will riders save if they regularly take a three-zone trip that will soon cost only two zones? A regular three-zone monthly pass user now pays $170 a month but, effective Oct. 5, will be able to instead buy a two-zone month pass for $124 – a $46 saving that adds up to $552 per year. That’s the scenario for many commuters to and from Vancouver from South Surrey by express bus and then the Canada Line,

or from Langley via the Port Mann 555 express bus and then SkyTrain. A South Surrey or Langley rider whose destination is currently a two-zone trip away – such as Richmond or Burnaby – will soon be able to buy just a $91 one-zone month pass, saving $33 or $396 a year compared to the cost of a $124 two-zone pass. Similar savings can be had by frequent riders of various bus routes between Surrey/North Delta and either New Westminster or Richmond, or from Maple Ridge to SkyTrain in New West-

minster. But the biggest winners from the elimination of zone pricing on buses are likely regular riders of the 160 bus from Port Coquitlam Station to Vancouver or the 190 from Coquitlam Station to Vancouver. Those are two of only three routes in the region that traverse three zones, so regular riders on those routes who now pay $170 for a three-zone monthly pass will see that cost cut to $91. That $79 a month saving adds up to $948 a year. – Jeff Nagel

NEW HOME DEVELOPMENT

Winner of PNE Prize Home will enjoy lake view living

magine winning the lakeside home of your dreams. Since 1934, the PNE Prize Home has been one of British Columbia’s most beloved giveaways by changing lives overnight and offering everyday people the chance to own an extraordinary home. This year the Pacific National Exhibition (PNE) is proud to unveil what is anticipated to be one of the most popular Prize Homes in recent years. The historic PNE Prize Home Lottery, which awarded its first home to a lucky fairgoer 81 years ago, is relocating this year’s home to Naramata, B.C, in the heart of the Okanagan wine country. “We are proud to have located PNE Prize Homes across British Columbia, but we were looking for something very special for the site for our 2015 Home,” says PNE Vice President of Operations Jeff Stickland. “Once we saw the site in The Benchlands development we knew that we had found one of the most spectacular settings we’ve ever had for a PNE Prize Home.” The Benchlands at Naramata is located on the southeast shore of Okanagan Lake, to the north of Penticton. The area features beautiful scenery, a rich cultural history, sprawling vineyards,

wildlife reserves, and unparalleled views of South Okanagan. “We’re thrilled to have been chosen as the PNE Prize Home partner,” says Randy Kowalchuk, President of Naramata Benchland Properties Ltd. “The PNE Prize Home is an important BC tradition, and we are confident the lucky winner will be impressed with the incredible views, idyllic settings and strong sense of community that make up the Naramata Benchlands project. This is a special home, and we’re happy to welcome it to a special place in the province.” Imagine opening up the blinds of the home’s expansive windows to reveal a lake view, then enjoying a cup of coffee while seated on

Offering the latest in home technology and environmentally conscious

features, the modernized home boasts a total value over $2.1 million. “This home is unlike anything we’ve done before, and we anticipate it will be extremely popular with our guests,” says PNE President and CEO Mike McDaniel. “The Prize Home is a very important part of our annual Fair and history, and to be able to offer such an incredibly beautiful home as part of the Prize Home Lottery is very exciting.” The PNE chose award-winning premium modular homebuilder, Karoleena, to design and build the modern Prize Home. “We’re honoured to have been chosen as the builder of the 2015 PNE Prize Home, and to be a part of its rich history,” says Kurt Goodjohn, co-founder and CMO for Karoleena. “Our goal is to improve the way people live by manufacturing and installing the most beautiful, energy efficient, and technologically advanced homes in the world. We think the Prize Home meets this goal.” The home comes equipped with indoor furnishings from Lane Home Furnishings featuring Calvin Klein

Home, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air and Maytag appliances supplied by Coast Appliances, as well as an in-home, multi-purpose recycling station brought to you by the LightRecycle program. Outdoors, the lucky homeowner will find accessories from Coast Spas Lifestyles, outdoor furniture from E9 Luxury Living and Napoleon BBQ from The BBQ Shop. A greener building can have a significant impact on longterm environmental goals, which is why the home was built for LEED Gold registration by utilizing the utmost environmental sustainability practices. This includes an engineered green roof by Architek and an energy efficient heat exchange system by Energy Saving Products. It is also extremely technologically advanced and uses smart home automations by Elan Home Systems, including touchpad- and device-controlled thermostat, security system and an audio/visual entertainment unit. It is anticipated that 100,000 fairgoers will tour the Prize Home at the PNE between August 22 and September 7 (closed August 24 and 31). After the Fair, a lucky winner’s life will be changed when they are awarded the Grand Prize Package. Then, Karoleena’s innovative home will be relocated to its permanent lot in Naramata, where living life on a lake front lot can begin in peace and comfort. Pinch yourself, it isn’t a dream, it’s home. Tickets for the Prize Home Lottery can be purchased by phone at 604252-3688, online at www.pneprizehome.ca, at Overwaitea Foods Group locations, by mail, or onsite during the 2015 Fair at the Prize Home preview (2901 E.

OBITUARIES

Victoria Gwynneth Mary Patrick (1919-2015)

Gwyn passed away peacefully at the Peace Arch Hospital in White Rock, British Columbia at 12:30pm on Monday, August 10, 2015 after a brief illness. Born on July 12, 1919 in Cuddington, Northwich, Cheshire, Gwyn moved to her beloved London, England in 1926 where she would later meet the love of her life and her future husband William Alexander Patrick who was serving with the 1st Canadian Survey Regiment during WW II. Gwyn emigrated to Canada in 1945 as a warbride, landing at Pier 21 in Halifax and travelling by train to Yorkton, Saskatchewan. Gwyn was a trained soprano, a pianist, an amateur thespian, and a stenographer and managed to find time to follow her passions while working full time and helping to raise a handful of children on Deer Park, the family farm in Yorkton. Prior to coming to Canada, she had worked as an assistant secretary at Timothy Whites and Taylors, the Ministry of Supply, Howard Wall, and the Arts Enquiry under Julian Huxley and Friedl Rothschild. A highlight was the year and a half that she was a member of the White Hart Club while the Enquiry was situated at Dartington Hall near Totnes, Devon. In Yorkton, she landed a job as traffic manager at CJGX where she also hosted her own radio show. She was a leading member of the Crosthwaite Choir, and directed and produced many plays and musical events in England and Canada. Gwyn worked for several years in Yorkton and area as a social worker, a vocation that perfectly suited her temperament. She and her husband retired to Vancouver in 1984 and a few years after Bill’s death, Gwyn moved to South Surrey where she continued to live independently, surrounded by the extended family of her loving son John and her devoted daughter-in-law and best friend Kathie. Gwyn was a voracious reader for her entire life and a wiz at crosswords. She greatly enjoyed the camaraderie of competitive bowling leagues in Yorkton and Vancouver, played a wicked game of bridge and was difficult to beat at scrabble although many of her family (children and grandchildren) tried. Gwyn was predeceased by her husband William Alexander Patrick, two infant children Christopher John Patrick and Noel Hugh Patrick, an infant brother Noel Scott Walton, and her parents Herbert Walton and Sarah Jane Walton (Wasley). She leaves to mourn her passing and to celebrate her life, “kid brother” John Walton and his wife Joyce, as well as four children, Judith Sarah Chambers (Dennis), Joanna Patrick (Vladimir), John William Patrick (Kathie), and Jill Patrick. Gwyn is lovingly remembered by 14 grandchildren and 10 great grandchildren, and will be greatly missed by other in-laws, cousins and a host of friends.

COLDWELL, Evelyn October 23, 1921 August 3, 2015 Evelyn was born on the farm 9 miles north of Yorkton, Sask. She was the third child of 9. Evelyn enjoyed living on the farm and helping her mother with her younger siblings. She was an avid reader, and horseback rider. Evelyn met John Wotherspoon Junior at a Country School dance. They enjoyed lots of laughs and had many similar interests. They were married and had one child Elaine Vinish. John and Evelyn eventually moved to Saskatoon and started a commercial cleaning business. In 1974 they moved to White Rock, B.C. to be closer to their son-in-law Edward and daughter Elaine and their 4 children, Scott, Kimberly, Kirk and Bradley. Unfortunately John’s health failed and passed away in 1979, but not before John and Evelyn instilled in their grandchildren the love of the bible and love of the grand creator Jehovah. The result of this marriage is 5 generations of Jehovah’s Witnesses. 10 years later Evelyn married Albert Bernard Coldwell. On June 9, 1990 the result of this union was 25 happy years. Bernie and Evelyn were an asset to each other, very loving & caring. You could see them walking hand in hand. They traveled extensively with family and friends. She is survived by her husband Bernie Coldwell, his children Don (Terry), Sheila Cook (Dave) and Bill Coldwell (deceased), children & grand-children. She is survived by daughter Elaine Vinish, Edward (deceased), grandchildren Scott Vinish (Lorraine) Kimberley Teunissen (Hans) deceased, Kirk Vinish (Teresa) & Brad Vinish (Veronica). A Memorial service will be held on Friday August 21st, 2015 at Kingdom Hall, 14832 - 24th Ave. in South Surrey at 2 pm.
