HOUSING PLEDGES TARGET OWNERS, RENTERS JEFF NAGEL

As home prices spiral up beyond the reach of many Lower Mainland residents, the federal parties are staking out different approaches on how they would deal with the housing affordability problem if elected. Urban mayors have tried to make the issue a priority, arguing workers are being priced out of their cities, forcing many to commute farther – clogging roads and transit – and impairing future economic growth and livability.

A B.C. Supreme Court justice has found a 30-year-old Surrey woman guilty of the second-degree murder of her mother, calling the 2012 stabbing a “violent and vicious” intentional killing. Gloria Zerbinos was convicted in B.C. Supreme Court in New Westminster on

Tuesday morning. Her mom, 43-year-old Pangiota (“Yota”) Zerbinos, was found dead in Gloria’s basement suite near 88 Avenue and 148A Street on Nov. 8 2012, a knife still protruding from her chest. Gloria was arrested and charged two days later at a Vancouver strip club. Family members and friends of Yota cried as Justice Frits Verhoeven described the gruesome and brutal details of her murder, while Gloria, wearing green prison garb with her dark curly hair now shoulder length, stared intently, without emotion, as he read his judgement. He said Yota was stabbed “at least” 24

times, with wounds found all over body, including her scalp, hands, arms, legs, chest and back. During the trial, the court heard that Gloria admitted to police investigators that she’d stabbed her mom, but denied the killing was planned and deliberate. “We started arguing… I did confront her… it went sour and it went bad,” she said. But while the defence argued her admissions weren’t reliable, Verhoeven disagreed, saying even without the confession, the circumstantial facts were “overwhelming.” continued on page 4

Police are asking for public assistance in identifying a man believed to have sexually assaulted a woman in North Surrey last weekend. On Sunday, Sept. 27 at about 4:30 p.m., a man sexually and physically assaulted a woman in a wooded area near Fraser Highway and 140 Street. The victim was treated for injuries in hospital. Mounties have so far been unable to identify the suspect and, as a result, are asking the public for their assistance. The suspect is described as a black male, more than 6’, about 160 lbs. and in his late 30s, with short black hair and no facial hair. The suspect Surrey RCMP released this has a distinctive photo of a suspect in a “wandering” or sexual assault last weekend. “lazy” right eye.

Tamanawis grad part of political debate at school ▼ GREEN PARTY’S PAM SANGHA JOINS LIBERAL, NDP AND CONSERVATIVE CANDIDATES TO ANSWER STUDENT QUESTIONS RICK KUPCHUK

Roughly 400 students at Tamanawis Secondary participated in the political process Tuesday, watching the four candidates in the Surrey-Newton riding answer questions in an all-candidates forum hosted by the school. The forum featured questions prepared by the school’s social studies students to be asked directly to one of the candidates. Follow-up comments were then permitted. The candidates included incumbent Member of Parliament Jinny Sims of the NDP, former Surrey-Newton MP Sukh Dhaliwal of the Liberal party, Harpreet Singh of the Conservatives and Tamanawis graduate Pam Sangha of the Green party. Sangha was asked what could be done to “make Surrey a safer place” while struggling with gang-related violence. “How many of you have heard gunshots, how many of you are jaded to that fact, like it’s not even a thing anymore? How terrifying is that?” asked Sangha. “We need to bring back preventative measures in elementary and high schools; we need mentors and more after-school programs. “Let’s legalize marijuana, let’s implement mentorship programs, let’s bring back community, let’s focus on community.” Singh directed some blame towards Sims, noting crime is down across the country but rising in Newton.

“Why is that?” he asked. “Over the past four years, the MP has has talked about it and done nothing about it.” “I find it rather disingenuous that somebody from the governing party point the finger to the official Opposition,” replied Sims. “When you can check Parliament records, you see I am one of the most outspoken people (on the gang issue). There’s no magic pill, but we need immediate policing. And despite the fact the (government) said the police were here, the (additional) 100 are still not here.” Dhaliwal criticized the federal government for building more jails and spending $130,000 a year to incarcerate first-time offenders. “We can invest that money in young people and the societies and organizations that play key roles in their lives,” he said. “I’ve always supported tough-on-crime legislation. But at the same time, I’ve stood for and asked for more programs.” Singh was asked what the Conservatives could do to assist Surrey “with their infrastructure and transportation challenges.” ▶ “How many of Singh referred to the you have heard announcement by the Conservatives Monday of a gunshots, how $700-million commitment many of you are to a proposed $2.1-billion light rail network in Surrey, jaded to that fact, adding Canada is leading G7 like it’s not even a nations in infrastructure projects. thing anymore?”

The Conservatives have put the emphasis on increasing home ownership. They’d expand the Home Buyers Plan to allow $35,000 to be withdrawn tax-free from RRSPs, up from $25,000 now. The Tories would also create a permanent home renovation tax credit of 15 per cent, for a maximum of $750 a year when up to $5,000 is spent on eligible renovations. A further home accessibility tax credit would give up to $1,500 in income tax relief on up to $10,000 in home improvements for seniors or the disabled. In response to concerns that foreign investment has rapidly inflated Vancouver-area prices, Conservative leader Stephen Harper has pledged to begin collecting data on foreign buyers and act to curb foreign speculators, if necessary. Other parties focus on support for rental and affordable housing. The NDP say they’d use federal tax incen-

at numerous housing co-ops in B.C. as their mortgages mature. Some of the buildings need major repairs, raising the spectre of rising rents or buildings converting to entirely market rates without extended federal aid. Liberal leader Justin Trudeau has promised deficit spending to stimulate the economy, and a big chunk of that would include more investment in affordable housing and renewed aid for co-ops.

The Liberals would eliminate GST on new capital investments in affordable rental housing as well as offer $125 million a year in other tax incentives to expand and renovate the rental unit supply. A Liberal reform to the Home Buyers Plan would let more people dip into RRSPs to buy a home without tax penalty – in scenarios like the death of a spouse, marital breakdown, relocation for a job, or taking in an elderly parent – rather than just first-time buyers. The withdrawal limit would remain $25,000. The Liberals also promise to review price trends in markets like Vancouver and convert some federal buildings and property to low-cost housing. The Greens pledge even more generous housing aid to build 20,000 new affordable housing units a year and subsidize 40,000 additional low-income homes. They also vow to retrofit every Canadian home by 2030 through an expanded EcoEnergy program to make them more energy efficient and slash building emissions.

The average price for a detached house with a yard reached $724,000 in the Fraser Valley this summer and nearly $1.5 million in Metro Vancouver. “Vancouver’s housing affordability readings are nearing the worst levels ever recorded in Canada,” an RBC Economics report found in August. The impact has varied by municipality, hitting Vancouver and some adjoining cities hardest with more than 50 per cent increases in detached house prices over five years, while houses have climbed a more modest 22 per cent in the Fraser Valley over that time frame. Five-year price gains have been much more gradual for townhomes and condos, particularly in the Valley, where prices have been flat to negative in some areas. For those who can’t afford to own, rents have also climbed. Rent and utilities now average $1,054 in Metro Vancouver – where rental affordability is rated “critical” by a new rental housing index – and $860 in the Fraser Valley, which is rated “severe.”

“Compared to Vancouver, we’re lacking in road infrastructure and public transit,” said Sims, adding the NDP would allocate $1.3 billion a year to cities for infrastructure and transit, as well as an additional one cent per litre in gas taxes collected. Dhaliwal noted the Liberals have committed to spending $125 billion over 10 years on infrastructure, $120 million of which is for

public transit. The Green party will spend $6.4 billion a year on municipal infrastructure, said Sangha, who slammed the idea of light rail for Surrey. “It’s a mistake,” she said. “A giant metropolis like Surrey deserves SkyTrain. I’m tired of Surrey getting screwed by the whole transit system.” The federal election is Monday, Oct. 19.

THIS WEEK’S QUESTION: Would you rather see SkyTrain extended in Surrey or Light Rail Transit? To answer, go to the home page of our website at surreyleader.com

Last week we asked: Do you think development is increasingly trumping the environment? Here’s how you responded:

Yes 84% No 16%

LRT: How will Surrey pay? The Surrey LRT project championed by Mayor Linda Hepner is a step closer to reality, with the confirmation Monday that a Conservative federal government will fund one-third of the cost, up to $700 million. Naturally, the Conservatives had Dianne Watts, Hepner’s popular predecessor and candidate in South Surrey-White Rock, make the announcement, along with Industry Minister James Moore, who is not running in the election. Watts had been scheduled to make the announcement with Prime Minister Stephen Harper on Sept. 3, but the news about members of a Syrian refugee family who had hoped to come to Canada and died at sea changed the focus of the news conference. LRT was not mentioned. Hepner promised in last fall’s municipal election campaign that the first phase of LRT would be up and running by 2018. On Monday, she revised that estimate, saying she now hopes work will be well underway by that time. Liberal candidate Sukh Dhaliwal, running in the Surrey-Newton riding, had earlier promised the Liberals would also fund one-third of the LRT project. The NDP has promised additional infrastructure funding as well, and it’s likely an NDP government would back the Surrey project. There are still several significant hurdles to climb for this

project – which involves an initial street-level line from Newton to Whalley and Guildford, and another line down Fraser Highway as far as Langley City – to go ahead. Before it proceeds, there must be absolute commitments for funding from all levels of government. The federal funding seems relatively secure. B.C. Transportation Minister Todd Stone said Monday Victoria would fund one-third of the LRT cost. It is an interesting about-face from the province’s 2008 position, when it insisted that the Evergreen Line project use SkyTrain technology before it would agree to help pay for it. That line, now under construction in Coquitlam and Port Moody, had been proposed as an LRT line. There is significant opposition to any LRT lines within Surrey. Daryl Dela Cruz of SkyTrain for Surrey has been the most vocal, and has produced details showing that the time passengers spend travelling by an LRT line won’t be much different from the time it takes buses and cars to traverse the same route. Dela Cruz calls for extensions to the SkyTrain line and more bus rapid transit. Many people agree that SkyTrain should be extended. The biggest obstacle, one that Hepner blithely ignored during

the discussion leading to the referendum on the proposed sales tax increase to help fund transportation projects, is the source of local funds for the project. Where will the local one-third share come from? At this time, TransLink does not have funds to contribute. Surrey could go it alone, as Hepner suggested at times, but that would be prohibitively expensive tor taxpayers. She had also suggested a P3 approach, as was done with the Canada Line, but taxpayers still must pay the private funders back. It could be done with additional premium fares on the LRT, as is done on the airport extension of SkyTrain. It is certain some will come from property taxes as well. It is possible that Peter Fassbender, the cabinet minister responsible for TransLink, will help the beleaguered organization find some ability to come up with more funds, but that won’t happen anytime soon. It seems most likely that the line will be built. But given all the hurdles it still faces, it may be just getting started by the time Hepner’s next election campaign rolls around in 2018.

Canada has a role to play on world stage YOUTH VOICE ▼ Japreet Lehal

This month, we have the opportunity to exercise our democratic right to vote and stand up for the policies and values that we believe in. I encourage all Canadians to cast their ballot. The government that will lead our country will shape both our domestic and international policies. There exists a considerable overlap between the two and one is not isolated from the other. International policies impact the domestic political and social landscape, and vice-versa. We need to elect a government which will effectively manage our country, while ensuring Canada plays a role in helping address international human rights issues, such as the refugee crisis, international development, climate change and corporate accountability. A recently leaked memo from the Department of Foreign Affairs reveals

how Canada can do much to improve its foreign policy record. As a country that has played a prominent role on the world stage, Canada has an opportunity to use its considerable political influence in international affairs for positive change. Regardless of which party wins the election, we need to make sure the government is fulfilling its promises and that it takes action on issues of importance. One such area is accountability of Canadian corporations abroad. All corporations, including resource extraction enterprises, should be held accountable when their actions infringe principles of justice. Violations of international human rights law negatively affect the lives of people. They also infringe upon the values of social justice that we as Canadians hold dear. In many cases, communities, already

In many cases, they are unable to successfully turn to the justice system in their home countries. Amnesty International, the Canadian Network on Corporate Accountability, NGOs, individuals and some Members of Parliament (at least five from the Lower Mainland) have already supported the idea of ensuring judicial access to individuals who may have been victims. They are also calling for the creation of an independent office of an “extractive-sector ombudsperson” who would have greater power to call for and scrutinize corporate compliance with human rights.

Several people were left homeless after a three-alarm fire at a large apartment complex at 108 Avenue and King George Boulevard on Wednesday morning. Nearly 30 firefighters were called to the 253unit complex at 10838 City Parkway at about 6 a.m. There were no reports of injuries and the entire four-storey building was safely evacuated, with at least one person rescued from a balcony. The complex, called Access, was built in 2005. The cause of the fire has not yet been determined.

City gives $30,000 to music school ▶ SARAH MCLACHLAN AIMS TO OPEN UP PROGRAMS FOR SURREY AT-RISK YOUTH KEVIN DIAKIW

Surrey is providing $30,000 for the creation of a music program for at-risk children. The Sarah McLachlan School of Music (SOM) has been working to provide quality music education to Surrey students whom could not otherwise afford it. On Monday, Surrey council voted to approve a funding request by SOM for $30,000. “The Sarah McLachlan School of Music will not only be a key cornerstone in the creative heartbeat of our city but it will also be a vital program for our youth – in particular to the young people who would not normally have the opportunity to partake in such programs,” said Mayor Linda Hepner. “That is why the Sarah McLachlan School of Music will be such a welcome addition to Surrey.” SOM provides professional music instruction at no cost, in a safe and nurturing Sarah environment, for at-risk and McLachlan under-served children and youth. Funded entirely through private donations, students receive high-quality music instruction in both contemporary and classical traditions, with no previous experience required. The goal of SOM is to raise $100,000 for the Surrey program’s first year of start-up, with yeartwo programming costs remaining at $100,000 and the number of students in the program doubling. As the program grows in Surrey, the operating costs will grow at the same rate as the students’ numbers. SOM receives support from the Sarah McLachlan Foundation that covers its overhead costs, which means that all donations received support the direct costs of providing music education. For SOM Surrey, all funds raised will be allotted to Surrey only. SOM Surrey is tentatively set to launch in the spring of 2016 in three schools. Anyone wishing to support SOM Surrey can either donate at www.sarahschoolofmusic.com/ donate/ and indicate “Surrey” in the notes or send a cheque noting “Surrey” to their Vancouver address: #200, 138 East 7 Ave., Vancouver, B.C., V5T 1M6.

Rough Ride for Volkswagen

THE ROAD RULES www.roadrules.ca

Cedric Hughes

Barrister & Solicitor

or the past week, the alleged discovery of a ‘defeat device’ in Volkswagen’s [VW’s] diesel cars has been headlined as a “mess, wreckage, scandal, ‘stunning betrayal of trust’, cheat, and crisis”—in short, a story with legs. The numerical reports of implicated vehicles and locales skyrocketed almost immediately from 500,000 in North American alone to 11 million worldwide. VW shares fell precipitously; the shares of other car and car-parts companies likewise tumbled. On the personnel front: CEO Martin Winterkorn’s mid-week resignation was followed two days later by the appointment of his replacement, Matthias Mueller, the former head of Porsche. The head of VW’s US operations and top engineers at its Audi and Porsche brands are also gone. On the regulatory front: both German and North American regulators are under scrutiny. That the discovery was made, not by the US Environmental Protection Agency, but by a US nonprofit, The International Council on Clean Transportation [ICCT],working with the Center for Alternative Fuels, Engines and Emissions at West Virginia University has been detailed. We are now told that self-testing and selfauditing were routine. Backgrounders on the importance of the auto industry to the whole German economy provide context for analysis on the “cozy relationship between the industry and [German] politicians.” And on the geo-political front: alarmists have gone so far as to say that “All of a sudden, Volkswagen has become a bigger downside risk for the German economy than the

Greek debt crisis.” In debate over the pros and cons of diesel technology, some predict the certain end of diesel cars in North America. Others say the diesel/electric combination is the future for hybrids. The fix and the fix timelines are vaguely described. Germany has set an October 7th deadline for VW’s plan to bring diesel emissions from the 2.8 million affected cars on German roads into compliance. In North America stop-sell orders appear to be in place and recalls may be forthcoming. The core mystery captivates: who was responsible and what, exactly, were they thinking? Will we ever fully understand how such a well-respected brand could come to this? The discovery time line is under scrutiny. German newspapers report that VW’s own staff in 2011 and one of its suppliers in 2007 warned about software designed to thwart emissions tests, but leave open why the matter was not addressed then. We have been reminded of other emission test cheaters: in 1995 General Motors US$11 million fine for defeat devices on some Cadillacs; in 1998, Ford’s US$7.8 million fine for defeat devices on Econoline vans, and Honda’s US$17.1 million fine for disabling a “misfire” device that warned about excess emissions, and the largest penalty for defeat devices to date, the US$83.4 million fine on Caterpillar, Volvo, Renault and other manufacturers. Clearly, VW will have to pay. In many countries where VW diesel cars are on the road, there is much ado about fines, class action lawsuits, and criminal investigations. VW has reportedly already set aside US$7.3billion to cover the fallout. Some estimate the final cost at triple this amount …or more. Looks like a rough ride for otherwise wellengineered vehicles.

Listen To Your Elders For most of us, our parents are the standards of adulthood, strength, and wisdom. Late in life mental disabilities, such as dementia, catch many otherwise attentive adult children of older parents off guard, and the legal ramifications are often the true blindside. It is important for your parents to meet with a lawyer to seek advice about who should act as their legal and personal representative in the event of their incapacity, and about what the best means of protecting their rights are. Once these measures have been taken, it is just as important to keep a close eye on an aging parent’s condition. Aging parents are likely to be at their best when around people they love and trust, namely you, and more vulnerable around people who may seek to take advantage of them financially. The Public Guardian is able to step in and control an infirm person’s assets when there is a complaint of possible financial perfidy. However, implementing your mother or father’s living estate plan once that step has been taken will require hiring a lawyer to negotiate, or even wrest control of the estate back from the government. It is best, if you have any concerns about a parent’s mental abilities, to assess their capacity often. Once you have determined that someone needs to step in, keep a close eye on their accounts; and of course, keep notes about everything you do and observe.

Bernier said training the first 2,000 teachers to deliver the new curriculum this year will cost $1 million and take the equivalent of two teaching days. It’s up to local school districts to decide how that time is organized, but it may mean extra non-instructional days or parts of days when students would be sent home early. The new curriculum is being piloted this year for kindergarten

through Grade 9 and will become mandatory across the province starting next fall Curriculum updates for the higher grades are still in development. For the next two years, teachers across B.C. will use one of their current professional development days for curriculum training and an additional five hours, the equivalent of one classroom day, will also

be devoted to the new curriculum. BCSTA president Teresa Rezansoff said school boards will decide how to structure the training to “best meet the needs of teachers while minimizing any impact on student learning time.”

or damaged items will remain the same. “Fines on children’s overdue library materials present a barrier to library use,” said Surrey Libraries board chair Linda Stromberg. And for young readers who may have pre-existing fines, a new “Read-Away Fines” program is also underway, and will run until the end of November. Under the program, a one-dollar credit for each day read can be used to pay down fines to a maximum of $50. A read-away-fines reading record can be picked up at any Surrey Library branch. “Reading is an essential skill for children and now they will have free access to library materials without worrying about the threat of overdue fines. We hope this will also encourage more children to get and use their own library cards, building on their sense of ownership and responsibility,” said chief librarian Melanie Houlden.

TIPS FOR BUYING “An inspection process begins with a knowing eye— and a sharp pencil.”

NEW HOME DEVELOPMENT

Hiring a home inspector: Avoiding unfortunate surprises By Nicolle Hodges

Two people walk into a house; one sees the issues and the other does not. It may sound like the beginning of a joke, when in reality a proper home inspection is a serious step in the home buying process that is recommended to involve a Certi-

fied Home Inspector and not rely solely on the homebuyer. Technically there are no government regulations that require a home inspection, but the risk is that if a problem is overlooked, it can end up costing more money down the line. When it comes to home inspections, it’s safe to say

that James Dobney of James Dobney Inspections knows what he’s doing. His company has performed tens of thousands of pre-purchase home inspections. He says that he’s seen the industry change from a time when only about 5 percent of homebuyers used a home inspector, to today, when approximately 95 percent of resale homes are inspected prior to purchase. “The thing that has surprised me the most over the past thirty years of inspecting homes is how little most homeowners know about the condition of their homes,” says Dobney. “This, perhaps, can be explained by the fact that the majority of homeowners don’t have the knowledge to determine the condition of many of the systems in their home until they fail. The phrase, ‘out of sight, out of mind,’ may also explain the lack of knowledge of many homeowners.” Dobney implores homeowners to ask themselves when was the last time they went into the crawlspace, attic or onto the roof? Would they be able to identify an

existing or potential problem even if they did? While it isn’t practical to hire a home inspector to look at every home you are considering, a comprehensive checklist can be a significant benefit when looking to prioritize which home to place an offer on. Some inspection companies, including James Dobney Inspections, are willing to send out a checklist to assist homebuyers in their search. “A good checklist will help you narrow the field and increase the odds of finding the home of your dreams,” says Dobney. However the checklist executed by the homeowner is just the first lookover. There are still many benefits to hiring an actual home inspector. According to Dobney, the home inspection should help determine if significant repairs are required, how the condition of the home compares to one of a similar age and design, and what kinds of maintenance should be performed to keep the home functioning properly. “Knowing the condition of the home you are intending to buy is vital in determining whether it is the right home at the right price,” says Dobney. If you want a proper home inspection but are unsure about the cost, consider that typically, the larger, older and more complex the home the higher the fee will be. “The inspection fee for most single-family homes will be in the $400 to $800 range. Be wary of ‘one size fits all’ pricing,” says Dobney.

Dobney’s top 5 tips B Ask questions: What are the inspector’s qualifications? Is the inspector licensed? How long will the inspection take? What kind of report will you receive? In British Columbia, pre-purchase home inspectors are required by law to have a license, which is administered by Consumer Protection BC. When shopping for an inspector your questions should be answered by a knowledgeable person in a timely fashion. C Hiring the company: You should hire an inspection company that encourages you to attend the inspection and is able to schedule it accordingly. By being there you will maximize the benefits of your inspection. D Role of inspector: Your home inspector should never recommend whether or not you should purchase a home. The role of a home inspector is to tell you about the condition of the home not whether it is the right home for you. There could be multiple, significant problems with the house that may already be reflected in the price, or you may be able to renegotiate the price to pay for the required repairs. No house is perfect and anything can be fixed. E The bigger picture: A home inspection is only a piece in the home buying puzzle. The results should be combined with your own diligence. It’s my observation, after thirty years in the home inspection business, that the buyer who works hardest at looking for a house (usually with the assistance of a competent Realtor) makes the best choice. F Unbiased assistance: Use a company that has ongoing, complimentary telephone support to answer any technical questions you have about your home for as long as you own it. Your home inspector should not be selling any repair or maintenance services and, as such, should be able to give you an unbiased answer to your question.

KEVIN DIAKIW

extra penny from the federal gas tax to municipalities, bringing in $3.5 billion annually for roads, bridges and other infrastructure. Sandhu says jobs are the third most important issue for the Surrey-Centre riding. “This is a growing, young population here,” Sandhu said. “Eight out of 10 jobs are generated by small businesses, so we will reduce the small business tax from 11 per cent to nine per cent.” He says that will allow small businesses to expand, creating more jobs. The NDP also is aiming to help 40,000 young people with paid internships or co-op placements. The New Democrats, he says, have also pledged to pay $15 a day for daycare, allowing young parents to get into the workforce. Sandhu says his party will also invest in the aerospace industry, protecting 76,000 jobs across the country, including a large firm in Delta.

The third of a series: Over the coming weeks, The Leader continues to shine a spotlight on candidates in each of this area’s six federal ridings: Surrey-Newton, Fleetwood-Port Kells, Surrey-Centre, Cloverdale-Langley City, South Surrey-White Rock and Delta. The stories can also be read online at surreyleader.com In Surrey-Centre, home to the notorious “Whalley strip” on 135A Street, it’s perhaps unsurprising that crime tops the list of issues among voters heading into this election. Whalley is surpassed only by Newton in its rate of violent crime. That’s not lost on NDP MP Jasbir Sandhu, who says crime is at the top of his list of concerns to address. “Crime is an issue,” the former program manager for the Justice Institute of B.C. says. “I have always advocated for programs when it comes to our youth gang prevention.” He notes he had a bill in the House of Commons that asked for sustainable funding for youth gang prevention programs. And he says he has hounded the government about the delivery of the 100 additional police officers Surrey had requested. “I was up in the House more than 20 times, even after hours, asking the federal safety minister as to when these officers are going to be here,” Sandhu says. “And whether they were going to provide additional funds for youth gang prevention programs.” Sandhu says the Conservatives cut funding for such programs in 2014, then amid much fanfare, restored it this year. He says the NDP has dedicated $250 million over the next four years to train 2,500 RCMP officers. Some of them, he points out, will be coming to Surrey. “Part of that money will go to a training facility that will make sure we can turn out the police officers in Regina (at the RCMP training depot),” the 49-year-old resident from just outside the riding says. “On the other hand, I think we still need the education side, the prevention side, so I will continue to advocate for prevention programs for our young people, and also education the community for us to work on both sides of the ledger.” He noted that homelessness and mental

Kevin Pielak is running for the Christian Heritage Party and says the most important issue in the riding is transit. The 55-year-old teacher of special needs students says there’s not enough transportation and the transit Surrey does have keeps breaking down. “Christian Heritage Party has a policy where they’re going to use the Bank of Canada for lending money either at zero per cent interest or a very low interest rate,” Pielak says. “That would be given to the municipalities that need to develop the infrastructure for the transportation.” The total amount has not been determined, he says, but it will be based on need. Pielak believes the second most important issue is public safety. “There’s too much shooting in Surrey, it’s very serious,” says Pielak, who lives in the Surrey-Centre riding. He says the federal government must provide more funding to Surrey for police. His plan is to increase the federal government’s current 10-per-cent share of funding RCMP costs. He couldn’t say by how much more. Pielak’s third priority is affordable housing. continued on page 17

▶ CRIME ‘AFFECTS ALL ASPECTS’ OF LIFE from page 16

Most people who try to buy a house are mortgage poor, he says, adding that would have to be addressed. He recommends promoting modular housing, which people could expand upon when they have more money. “Plus, we have some homeless people who would need some cheaper housing,” he says. Again, he would use Bank of Canada low-interest loans for municipalities to build affordable housing that would be required.

•••

Liberal candidate Randeep Sarai says crime is the number-one issue facing Surrey-Centre. “It affects all aspects of your life, from people at home having property crime, to people that are on the strip that are on the street having to live in unsafe conditions,” Sarai says. “When I door knock, I’ve never seen so many video (surveillance) cameras that every door has now.” The 40-year-old lawyer believes a multi-pronged crime reduction strategy needs to be developed involving all stakeholders. He says people who need help, need it fast. “Say somebody has mental health issues. They don’t get any treatment for three weeks,” Sarai points out. “And that three weeks is when things get worse. They get sucked in by drug dealers and organized crime.” He says police shouldn’t have to deal with those issues and would assemble

a group of community stakeholders within 30 to 60 days of being elected. “Quickly decide what needs to be done, and figure out what needs to bond, and what government agency needs to do it.” He would also push for more funding to train new RCMP officers, as well as boost prevention and enforcement strategies. Sarai believes the second most pressing issue is economic development. “We have ports, we have the gateway to the U.S., we should be developing more jobs here, and they should be green jobs,” he says. Residents should work in or near their own city, says Sarai, who lives just outside the riding. He notes Surrey, and other cities, are taking a lead role in developing green industries. “The cities and provinces have had to come up with their own solutions. The federal government has no direction on it,” Sarai says. He also says he would set his sights on youth employment. “Young people need to get employed,” he says. The Liberals will commit $1.3 billion to a youth employment strategy, he says, which would mean thousands of more co-op jobs through schools, which he says is critical to providing younger people with work experience.

Mark the date:

Affordable housing is third on Sarai’s list of priorities. He says there’s a “silver wave” of seniors coming and their needs have to be addressed. There needs to be more seniors’ housing and care so “they can live a decent and graceful life” in their final years, he says. “I think the Liberals have a great plan for helping them, for fixing their pensions with the National Inflation Index,” Sarai says. The Liberals would also allow $25,000 worth of RRSPs to be used on both a first home purchase and a second.

Despite repeated requests for an interview, Conservative candidate Sucha Thind did not return Leader phone calls. Communist candidate Iqbal Kahlon also did not return phone calls. Jeremiah Deneault, with the Green party, declined an interview. A representative with the Green Party of Canada says he was a place-holder candidate, offering his name so people have the choice to vote Green should they wish.

provement this week.” The win was the third in as many non-conference games for Holy Cross, and came against a team which had scored 84 points while winning their previous two starts. The Crusaders caught a break in the first quarter when Panthers receiver Chase Claypool was ejected for a pair of objectionable conduct penalties. Claypool had caught 14 passes for 396 yards in the previous two games. Holy Cross led 14-7 at the time, and extended the lead to 27-7 by halftime, then hung on in the second half as the Panthers chipped away at the Crusaders’ lead. Jordan O’Reilly had a huge outing in his first game as a running back. The Grade 12 athlete was moved from the offensive line into the backfield during practice this week. “He’s an athletic kid and was given the opportunity to show a different skill set and he rose to the occasion,” said Deugau. “He was one of our best players on the field. “He ran the ball very well and picked up many important first downs and three rushing touchdowns.” Other standouts included Grade 11 running back Jed Paclaon, who “added an element to our run game which creates a change of pace,” and receiver Marcus Browne and quarterback Patrick Shoemay. “They were once again impact players even though they were held without a touchdown between them, Deugau said. “Teams are aware of their ability and have to prep for that so even when the pair don’t get a score they still impact the game.” The Crusaders will be at home to the Robert Bateman Timberwolves of Abbotsford in their final non-conference game Saturday at 1:30 p.m.

Hawks fill the net against the Blazers ▶ MIDGET HOCKEY TEAM SCORED 14 GOALS IN TWO GAMES, WIN TWICE RICK KUPCHUK

The Valley West Hawks filled the net in two games against the Thompson Blazers last weekend, sweeping their BC Hockey Major Midget League (MML) series in Richmond by scores of 7-1 and 7-2. The Hawks remain unbeaten four games into the season with a 3-0-1 (win-loss-tie) record, behind only the 4-0-0 Vancouver Giants. There are no easy games in the MML.

Despite the scores, this weekend was no exception,” said Hawks head coach Jessie Leung. “Both were tight for most of the game until we capitalized on some powerplay chances to pull away. We also got a chance to see some of the scoring depth we could have on our team, we had six players score their first MML goals, and hope to see carry through.” Ten of the 11 MML teams were in Richmond last weekend for the Showcase Weekend. Valley West, comprised of players from Surrey, White Rock and North Delta, broke open Saturday’s game with three

second period goals for a 4-0 lead after 40 minutes.

▶ “There are no easy games in the MML.” JESSIE LEUNG

Christian Bosa paced the Hawks attack with four goals. Kabir Gill, Ilijah Colina and Carson Franklin also tallied for Valley West. Luka Burzan contributed with three assists, with Bobby Russell, Bradley Stonnell and Michael Farren adding two helpers each.

“We’re counting on Bosa to be an offensive leader for us this season. Saturday was a good sign,” said Leung. “We played Saturday without two of our best players in Ben Evanish and Ian Ross but collectively picked up the slack.” The Hawks received a pair of powerplay goals from Evanish in Sunday’s win. The White Rock resident now has seven goals in three games played, tops in the MML. Calder Newson also scored twice, with Justyn Gurney, Farren and Bosa adding one each. Stonnell collected another three assists, with Farren earning a pair. “I think we took the

game for granted for the first period and the Blazers took it to us and outworked us,” said Leung. “We really had to lean on Reece Klassen in net to bail

us out of our poor play Once we got our heads back into it we were able to pull away.” The Hawks have a bye next weekend,

then will play twice against the Vancouver Canadians Oct. 10-11. Face-off is 2 p.m. on Saturday, and noon Sunday at the Richmond Oval.

Influenza

Influenza, commonly known as the flu, is a highly contagious virus that infects millions of Canadians every year. While most recover in about a week, up to 8,000 people, most of them young children and seniors, will die due to flu-related complications. Getting vaccinated is the best way to protect against the flu. When you get vaccinated, you also help protect others by reducing the spread of the virus. Flu vaccines are designed to protect against the flu viruses that research indicates will be most common during the upcoming flu season. Canada’s National Advisory Committee on Immunizations recommends that everyone 6 months of age and older gets vaccinated. In BC, the flu vaccine is provided free to people who are at high risk of serious illness from influenza (such as young children, pregnant women, the elderly and people with certain medical conditions) as well as those able to transmit or spread influenza to those at high risk.
