Twelve years for killing Gopaul enters guilty plea for manslaughter

Cloverdale’s Sandra Hemelspeck is greeted by a cloud of coloured powder at the finish line of the Color Me Rad 5K run at Holland Park on May 23. The event left none of its estimated 5,000 participants free of washable colour.

The man accused of killing a mom of three outside a Surrey hockey arena in late 2013 pleaded guilty Friday and has been sentenced to 12 years prison. Yosef Jomo Gopaul, 27, was initially charged with second-degree murder in connection with Julie Paskall’s death, but on Friday morning (May 22), entered a guilty plea in Surrey Provincial Court to the lesser charge of manslaughter. He was sentenced following an emotional morning in court where details of Paskall’s death were reviewed and victim impact statements read. Paskall, 53, was attacked Dec. 29 while picking up

her son from hockey outside Newton Arena near 71 Avenue and 136B Street. She suffered a blow to the head with a rock in what police at the time called a robbery gone wrong. She died two days later. The court heard she had a pre-existing heart condition and suffered a heart attack. Gopaul was arrested five months after the attack. A preliminary hearing was held in January to determine if there was enough evidence to warrant a trial. A judge determined there was and Gopaul was ordered to stand trial in B.C. Supreme Court. On Friday, Gopaul also See FAMILY / Page 3

Housing market to price out lawyers, doctors By Jeff Nagel It’s not just low blue-collar service workers who are being priced out of the Lower Mainland’s hot real estate market. A new study projects a growing list of high-earning professionals won’t make enough in the years ahead to support the rapidly rising cost of owning a home in Metro Vancouver. The VanCity Savings report warns of a coming labour crisis as more skilled workers needed in the region – particularly millennials – are increasingly forced to live further away or abandon the region altogether. The crux of the problem is rising housing costs coupled with lagging pay. Wages in the region rose by 36 per cent between 2001 and 2014, the report said, while Metro Vancouver home costs climbed 63 per cent over the same period, and soared 211 per cent within Vancouver proper.

VanCity assumed housing costs will continue to climb an average of 4.9 per cent a year in Metro, significantly faster than wage growth of 0.6 to 3.2 per cent. If that proves accurate between now and 2020, the report says, only family doctors, specialists, lawyers, university professors, police officers, firefighters and certain managers and engineers will be paid enough to qualify for a typical mortgage in Metro, while more than 90 per cent of in-demand job categories will not. And by 2025, it found, only senior managers in business, construction and engineering will still make the affordability cut – doctors and lawyers would not. “In 10 years, most individuals may forgo a career opportunity in the region and relocate to a different labour market,” the VanCity report says. “If there is an abundance of outward migration, a labour crisis will occur.”

Millennials, many of whom want to own homes, are among those most likely to migrate away, it said. Among the report’s recommendations are that cities use zoning to require developers to include non-market affordable housing with new projects and that the federal government provide tax incentives to encourage more rental housing. Businesses can help, it says, by paying employees a living wage adequate to meet a family’s basic needs and perhaps investing in affordable housing for their workers. Millennials need to look harder at renting instead of owning a home, it said, along with choosing smaller homes or possibly alternatives like intergenerational community living or multi-family living through options like housing co-ops. – Black Press

Market Days are back By Jennifer Lang Cloverdale merchants and outdoor vendors are laying out the welcome mat for shoppers this Saturday for the first Market Day of 2015. As many as 30 vendors are taking part, including food trucks, and local farms selling fresh produce, plus a variety of artisans and small businesses who are joining merchants for sidewalk sales and more from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on 176 Street. It’s the first of five market days this summer being organized by an ad-hoc group of local merchants on the street. “We’re just trying to give back to the community,” says coordinator Helena Lloyd of Mates Uniforms. “People say, ‘I love Cloverdale. I live in Cloverdale.’ Everyone says it – that’s because they’re proud of what they are.’” There’s a new way to show that pride – the businesses behind the market days venture are selling $20 Cloverdale T-shirts available at participating businesses. It’s a way help bring in extra revenue to help promote market days. With two of Cloverdale’s largest community events – the summer blueberry festival and the Halloween Costume Parade in October – put on hold this year, it’s never been more important to find ways to bring new shoppers to the historic town centre, Lloyd says. “There was going to be noth-

ing happening down here until Christmas,” she says. “People do want to come down here and of course we want people to come and support Cloverdale.” In addition to being the first market day of 2015, the May 30 event is also the fifth market day since its inception. Launched in the fall of 2013, the market days give people a reason to check out the range of shopping and services the historic town centre has to offer. “This has grown a lot since last year. There’s still a lot more it could grow,” Lloyd says, adding, “Everybody loves the community feel and hometown attitude [of Cloverdale]. When they come

down, they love it.” Two child-friendly attractions are on the bill this time only: Korki the Clown and electric bluehaired Mrs. Picasso the face painter will set up shop in Hawthorne Square from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Promoting the market is key, as is covering costs. Fortunately, several sponsors stepped forward earlier this year to help support Market Days: the Bank of Montreal, which donated $2,500, the Cloverdale District Chamber of Commerce ($1,250), ACE Hardware ($250) and the Cloverdale BIA ($2,500). Look for Market Days planned for June, July, August and October.

pleaded guilty to a robbery charge in connection with a separate attack of another woman just weeks before Paskall’s death. Crown and defence lawyers made a joint recommendation that Gopaul be sentenced to 12 years jail. Gopaul was given credit for the 18 months he’s already spent in custody, leaving ten-and-a-half years of his sentence remaining.

BRING ‘EM TO THE PROS!

The family of Julie Paskall has asked for privacy, issuing a statement Friday. “Nothing will ever bring back a wife, mother, daughter, sister and friend. Julie is gone forever,” it says, adding the family wished to thank Surrey RCMP and members of IHIT for countless hours resulting in charges and conviction of Gopaul. “As hard as it is, we now must go on with our lives without our beloved Julie.”

Federal campaign in full swing Voters may not be too engaged right now, but federal parties are in election mode

ne of the side effects of having fixed election dates in Canada, a move pioneered by the BC Liberals when they were first elected in 2001, is that campaigns have become much, much longer. In fact, having a short campaign period is now considered a disaster by most political handlers. One of the criticisms made of the Alberta Progressive Conservatives’ recent campaign (after the fact, of course), is that they only had a 28-day period to campaign in. Premier Jim Prentice in fact broke Alberta’s fixed election date law and called an election a year early. That didn’t go so well – his party placed third after being in power for 44 years. The federal election campaign has actually been underway for some time – certainly since the beginning of the year. While Parliament is still sitting and passing laws, MPs and candidates of all stripes are hard at work getting ready for the October election. Under redistribution, Surrey now has five ridings, while Delta has one. Candidates in the new Cloverdale-Langley City riding are mostly in place and several have already set up campaign offices. They are taking time off from their jobs to campaign, and that’s what they are spending much of their time doing. Because of the long campaign period, voters need to treat almost everything said or

done by political parties, and particularly by their leaders, with a great deal of skepticism. They need to follow the advice of lead singer Sting of The Police in the song Every Breath You Take: “Every vow you break Every smile you fake Every claim you stake I’ll be watching you.” NDP leader Thomas Mulcair was in Surrey for a rally. This clearly was an election-related visit. Two of the current Surrey ridings are held by NDP MPs, and the NDP are doing well in recent polls. The party has a decent shot at at least one, possibly two other Surrey seats. The surprising win by the NDP in Alberta is causing more people across Canada to look at the federal party a little more closely. Some are, for the first time, actually considering it as a government in waiting. Prime Minister Stephen Harper has also made a number of visits to the Lower Mainland in recent weeks – with at least two of them to Surrey. While they haven’t been election rallies, his visits are directly connected to the campaign. In particular, the time he spent with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Surrey was invaluable. Delta-Richmond East MP Kerry-Lynne

Findlay was in Surrey last week to announce a $3.5 million grant to Wrap, Surrey School District’s anti-gang program. She also confirmed the 100 new RCMP officers Surrey has requested will be coming – though she did not give a date. Some of her remarks in making the announcement were aimed at other parties – no surer proof these announcements are part of the larger campaign. Liberal leader Justin Trudeau will almost certainly be in the area several times in the coming months as well, as will Green Party leader Elizabeth May. Surrey is a key battleground, with at least three of the seats likely to be hard-fought. The South Surrey-White Rock race, with former Surrey mayor Dianne Watts the Conservative candidate, is more likely to be a coronation. Cloverdale-Langley City will be closer, but the seat is the Conservatives’ to lose. Findlay is almost certain to retain her Delta seat, as it too is a strong Conservative seat. Voters may not be too engaged in federal politics right now, but the parties most certainly are.

SkyTrain fire prompts free ride Goodwill gesture offered by TransLink after a major disruption

PET EXPERT

By Jeff Nagel TransLink declared all transit service free on Friday after a small fire shut down SkyTrain service on the Expo Line for 13 hours, causing major delays on the morning commute. An errant spark from a crew using grinders to maintain the track landed in a bird’s nest that caught fire around 11 p.m. and then burned about a metre of critical SkyTrain communications cable. Service was halted between Joyce Station and Waterfront until nearly noon Friday. Track grinding is routine to keep the track in good condition and SkyTrain noise levels down.

CAN BE DANGEROUS

for the Cloverdale pet and the people who love them their pets under the sweltering summer sun. A lot of dogs will run and play to the point of exhaustion, and it’s the guardian’s responsibility to make sure that doesn’t happen.

If you see a dog languishing in a hot car, please call the SPCA

Many people assume they will be just a few minutes at a bank or convenience store, only to be delayed and return too late to save their pet. With an outside temperature of just 26 degrees Celsius, the temperature inside a parked car at this time of year — even one that’s in the shade with the windows cracked — can climb to above 37 degrees Celsius in just 10 minutes and 43 degrees Celsius in 20 minutes. A dog’s normal temperature is 38 degrees Celsius. At 41 degrees Celsius, your dog begins to suffer irreparable brain damage or death.

Does your dog ever sustain a cut on the pads of his feet?

Signs of heatstroke in pets: • Exaggerated panting (or the sudden stopping of panting); • Rapid or erratic pulse; • Salivation; • Weakness and muscle tremors; • Lack of coordination; • Convulsions or vomiting; and Collapse.

With summer fast approaching, it’s time to remind pet guardians across B.C. about the serious consequences for pets left inside cars on hot days. Every year, the SPCA receives hundreds of complaints about dogs left in hot cars because many people still don’t grasp the danger of this situation. Even if you park in the shade and it seems cool outside when you leave, the sun can change direction and heat up a car’s interior in no time.

In addition to not leaving pets in the car at this time of year, guardians should use caution when exercising

ing how to compensate people with monthly passes, as well as those who paid for tickets Friday – they’re advised to hang onto them. Allen defended the response of TransLink staff to this shutdown as “very, very good” and many passengers said TransLink communications was much better than during two lengthy shutdowns last summer. Extra buses shuttled passengers around the closed section of line and they were also urged to take buses west on major Vancouver arteries to the Canada Line.

“Dog days of summer”

Lorie Chortyk

If you see a dog languishing in a hot car, please call the SPCA, animal control or local police in your area. Before the authorities arrive, members of the public can help prevent a tragedy by attempting to find the animal’s guardian. If the car is in a mall or grocery store parking lot, for example, ask to have the owner paged over the building’s PA system. Return to the car to monitor the dog’s condition.

“It’s a freak incident,” TransLink interim CEO Doug Allen said. “But obviously we’re having a look at the nesting through the system and we’re looking at restraining sparks from grinders.” Bird netting is used in strategic areas to keep birds from nesting near the tracks, but it wasn’t in place on this section as it hadn’t been identified as a problem area. TransLink apologized to passengers for the inconvenience and said free transit on Friday was a gesture of goodwill. “Their time is priceless, at least we can respond with free service for the day in question,” Allen said. TransLink is also consider-

Innovation, crime top first formal address by mayor Linda Hepner says the 147 additional police officers will arrive within the year By Kevin Diakiw In her inaugural State of the City address, Surrey Mayor Linda Hepner outlined a vision of hope and promise to a crowd at the Sheraton Vancouver Guildford Hotel. Hepner told the crowd she looked forward to getting caught up and explained her plans for the city over the next year. The theme of her speech was largely centered around innovation, pulling from the burgeoning success of Innovation Boulevard, a partnership between the City of Surrey, Simon Fraser University and Fraser Health to create a hightech health area between the three entities in North Surrey. It’s already taking off. Hepner said she wants to build upon that success by using several similar models elsewhere in the city.

Plugging into the city’s rich network of academics, clinicians and businesses can jumpstart and accelerate commerce in Surrey, she said, adding the Innovation Boulevard concept can be used to create hubs of clean tech, agriculture and cyber security. Clean tech (environmentally friendly technology) is one of Canada’s fastest-growing sectors, she said, adding Surrey is well-positioned to lead globally. She said the city recently recruited the Foresight Cleantech Innovation Centre to locate in Newton, Last month, the federal government announced $2 million in federal funding for Foresight for its clean technology development. She noted 10 per cent of B.C.’s clean tech companies are already located in Surrey. But innovation doesn’t stop

there, Hepner said. California’s ongoing drought situation is an indicator climate change has profound effects on food security. She noted that one-third of Surrey’s land base is agricultural and said the city can be part of the solution. In partnership with the B.C. Agriculture Centre for Excellence, Kwantlen Polytechnic University, SFU and BCIT, Surrey will become a living lab for agricultural innovation, Hepner said. There are plans to create a virtual incubator farm, which would serve as a portal for aspiring farmers to find services and sources of information gathering. Most importantly, she said, it will identify land upon which they can farm. Innovation will also be part of a cyber security initiative

Surrey is undertaking, she said. Breakdowns in cyber security are costing governments and businesses fortunes. Surrey will be working with Israel’s Ben Gurion University as well as top companies, locally and abroad, to better understand the issue and find solutions. After highlighting plans for a bright future, Hepner also addressed what she called the “elephant in the room” – crime. She said statistics show Surrey is a safe city, but she acknowledged that people don’t feel safe. During last year’s election campaign, Hepner promised 147 more officers on the ground. She says they’ve been ordered and will arrive within the next year. Surrey will also be developing a neighbourhood policing

The University of Victoria and Fraser Health are conducting a study to evaluate the effectiveness of peer coaches for persons with type 2 diabetes. This research study is funded by the Lawson Foundation of Canada. Interested persons must be adults with type 2 diabetes living in the Fraser Health Region and able to speak English or Punjabi. The purpose of the study is to determine whether Diabetes Coaches can assist persons with type 2 diabetes to better manage their condition. Interested persons will be randomly assigned to a group that receives a coach for six months or to a group that receives usual care. For more information please contact: Suzanne (Study Coordinator) at University of Victoria at 604-940-8973.

She also plans to create a cultural corridor from Newton to South Surrey along King George Boulevard. It’s been 168 days since Hepner was elected mayor and each day has been different, she said.

know how far we have come and how much further we can go,” she said. “We have the imagination and drive to see what we have going for us, and then work to shape our city into something remarkable.”

Ice applauded Mike Bola, president of the Cloverdale Community Association, said he was happy to hear the mayor confirm news Cloverdale will get more ice rinks. The association has been pushing for four rinks to replace the current Cloverdale Ice Arena, built in the 1970s, a single sheet of ice meant to be twinned with a second sheet that never came to fruition. He’s heard the new plan is to build two replacement rinks first that would be twinned at a later date. “It’s great news. It’s a start,” he said, after listening to the mayor’s speech in person. The association has also been pushing for a new indoor pool for Cloverdale for decades, but it’s not in the cards

for now, he said. The association conducted a survey of residents last year and found 90 per cent of respondents wanted a pool and a rink as top new amenities in Cloverdale. The association is also encouraged by news the City of Surrey is embarking on an “envisioning process” for the city-owned Cloverdale Fairgrounds, home to the Cloverdale Rodeo and Exhibition and Fraser Downs Racetrack and Casino, along with land that’s ripe for redevelopment. Bola said the association would also like the soccer centre for excellence to be located in Cloverdale. The fairgrounds’ location at the crossroads of Highways 15 and 10, plus its easy border connections to the U.S. make it an easy fit for visiting soccer teams, he said. With that in mind, the association has also asked the City of Surrey to prioritize a walking/ running track around a soccer field if it’s built here. “We’ve had a lot of push from seniors,” he said.

Attendance numbers at the Cloverdale Fairgrounds were as high as they’ve been in years, as about 100,000 people came through the turnstiles over the May long weekend to take in the 127th Cloverdale Rodeo and Country Fair. The fair showcased world-class skateboarders, pig racing, lum-

berjack shows and the midway rides, to name just a few attractions. Organizers say more than 85,000 packed the fair and 23,000 attended the rodeo – one of the best turnouts in decades. Even with the added seating, the rodeo saw two back-to-back sellouts for Saturday and Sunday performances. The 69th annual rodeo show-

cased the world’s stop cowboys and cowgirls competing for $325,000 in prize money.

How many times have you heard someone say, â&#x20AC;&#x153;itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just his/her nervesâ&#x20AC;?? Yes, physiologically the sensation of a racing heart, sweaty palms, shortness of breath, dry mouth, nausea, troubles sleeping , muscle tension and/or dizziness is mitigated by the nerves. But to anyone who has experienced these types of symptoms, just writing it off as â&#x20AC;&#x153;just nervesâ&#x20AC;? does not do anything to take away the anxiety or panic that one is feeling. There are several different types of anxiety disorders which can be diagnosed by your doctorâ&#x20AC;Śand it is never a bad idea to get checked out if there could be an underlying cause to the symptom you are experiencing. For example, if you have a personal or family history of heart issues, then please do not assume your heart palpitations are due only to anxiety! However, people who feel any combination of the symptoms above do not necessarily need a diagnosis to get some relief. Once it has been determined that there is no organic cause of the symptom, then the first things to try are the non-drug approaches. Minimizing the use of caffeine and other stimulants and avoiding the use of alcohol are easy first steps. Exercise can be beneficial , especially if is the aerobic kind that gets your heart rate up a bit. If your anxiety is disturbing your sleep, then make sure

In particular, a combination of l-theanine and ashwagandha called, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sleep Tonightâ&#x20AC;? can produce marked effects in helping the body deal with stress as well as reducing anxiety. Although the name implies that it is simply a sleep-aid, we have found many patients find it useful during the day. However, since it may induce drowsiness in some, it is prudent to use this at night until you are familiar with its effects in your body. (This latter statement applies to any and all herbs that may cause one to be overly relaxed.) Anxiety can be precipitated or elicited by many different situations or stimuli. It is important to identify these stimuli where possible and deal with them first. If you are thinking of trying a supplement to help you manage your anxiety, always consult with a healthcare practitioner first to ensure what you choose is safe for you to use.

Panthers shine at track meet Fresh off their impressive showing at the 38th annual Cloverdale Bed Races, Lord Tweedsmuir Secondary School’s track team headed to the Fraser Valley Track and Field Championships, winning the Grade 8 boys aggregate title and an individual senior boys title for thrower Ben Ingvaldson. Athletic director Mike Mitro said more than 70 plus athletes from LTS qualified for the meet, who says coaches Derrick Fournier and Sheryl Murrell are ecstatic with the team’s performance, and expect big things for the provincial championships June 4-6 in Langley. Ingvaldson won a gold medal in discus with a throw of 39.91m. H also won gold in hammer throw and a silver in shotput. Kenzos Los earned a silver in the men’s 200m sprint in 22.73 seconds. Stephanie Mernagh of Lord Tweedsmuir also won a bronze medal with a third-place finish in the women’s 400m race in 1:02.85. LTS also had four relay teams win medals. In the women’s competition, the Panthers won silver medals in the 4x400m event and the 4x100m race. In the men’s 4x100m race, the Panthers placed first and third. – Cloverdale Reporter

The Victorian era lives on at the end of Llandudno Pier.

fortune teller stalls, and souvenir shops, the famous Llandudno landmark built in 1877 is anchored by a pinball-style ‘Family Amusement’ arcade at one end and a “Deck Arcade” under a Brighton Pier-style dome jutting out into the sea. Apart from the

two arcades, the fun stuff is ‘Closed for the Season’. Waves batter the base of the Grand Hotel on the north side of the pier which, until a face appears at a second floor window, I assume is closed permanently. It’s a perfect Hitchcock set. The town will be packed at the height of the summer, but exploring in the

‘off season’ has, for a writer, its own unique charm. It’s only when contemplating the giant teacup rides that I recall Llandudno’s connection to Alice in Wonderland. Alice Liddell, a child who regularly holidayed with her family over 150 years ago, is reputed to have been the inspiration for Lewis Carroll’s ‘Alice’.

As a result, the promenade has featured in many a Mad Hatterthemed tea party and other related events. Jogging back to the warmth of the four-star St. George, I detour off the beach through the main streets. I am sorry time doesn’t allow for exploring the eclectic assortment of village shops.

Dinner, on the other hand, at The Sea Horse Restaurant, 7 Church Walks, was a complete contrast. Tucked into a refurbished ‘Victorian’ with stone walls, oak pews and priests’ chairs for casual dining, or more formal red leather furniture upstairs, I find an upbeat atmosphere catering to a decidedly trendier clientele. Owned by Don and Gill Hadwin, the personable Manchester pair clearly enjoy fine food and friendship. Don, a Master Chef, and Gill, a drama and English major, were school friends who drifted apart, but reconnected on-line in 2002 through Friends Re-United. They’re also avid fisherfolk who pride themselves on serving their own ‘fresh catch’ complemented with locally-grown and raised products for their varied menu. Grilled sea bass with garlic butter and prawns paired with a

Exploring the Great Orme, famous for an old copper mine, a 13th century church (where even your pooch is welcome to attend services), and a visit to the nearby ancient walled castle town of Conwy are on the agenda for tomorrow. Wales is steeped in mysteries, histories, and surprises. No wonder writers, poets, musicians, and independent spirits are drawn to it and thrive here.
