Paton gets Liberal nod

Civic councillor tops former police chief Jim Cessford for party nomination SANDOR GYARMATI

Ian Paton will be the Liberal candidate in Delta South. The civic councillor beat out former police chief Jim Cessford at a candidate selection meeting at the Delta Town & Country Inn Wednesday evening.

It was an overflow crowd of members, many newly signed up, who arrived to hear brief speeches by the two vying for the nomination before casting ballots. More than 600 voted as party members were given several hours to cast ballots, many sticking around for the result announced about 10 p.m.

“The nomination meeting is over, but we’ve got a very big job ahead of us now,” said Paton in his victory speech. “We’ve got a team of people out there that really love (current two-term MLA) Vicki Huntington and we have got to get out there. It’s a great thing that we’ve built this membership, between Jim

and his people and our people. We’ve built this membership in the last four or five months and we’ve got to keep it going.” Paton also slammed Huntington in his earlier speech, accusing the independent MLA of being disconnected with municipal council. PATON: see Page 3

The numbers are staggering and tell a troubling tale of a drug crisis that law enforcement and health officials are struggling to get a handle on. According to Fraser Health, as of July 31, there have been 433 apparent illicit overdose deaths in B.C., many of which are linked to fentanyl. Those numbers are up by a whopping 74 per cent provincewide from the same period last year. “That’s an astonishing two deaths per day,” said Dr. Arlene King with Fraser Health. “This is not an insignificant public health problem.” King said of the 433 overdose deaths, 155 occurred in the Fraser Health region, with at least two deaths in Delta. She said there have been 77 overdoses in Delta with a suspected 66 per cent fentanyl-related. King said there is no quick-fix to the issue. “This is a real complex problem. We have all kinds of users from occasional users, like youth who experiment with drugs, then we have individuals who have dependencies on illicit drugs, so it’s a real complex answer,” she said. “But that being said, we know it’s important that we work with youth to be aware that no illicit drug is safe. Unless you get medication from your pharmacist, no illicit drug is safe.” POLICE: see Page 4

Earthwise farm in the way Southlands development means relocating operation to another part of site SANDOR GYARMATI

s g y a r m a t i @ d e l t a - o p t i m i s t .c o m

The Earthwise Society’s operations at the Southlands will be impacted by the major development taking place on the Tsawwassen property. Responding to recent concerns raised by residents, the Corporation of Delta this week issued a lengthy news release explaining how Century Group is transferring 80 per cent of the Southlands to Delta, land that will be used for agriculture, natural habitat and public open space, including a Market Square and greenways. The Market Square area, however, is to be located where Earthwise currently operates at Boundary Bay Road and 3rd Avenue. The society set up its community garden and demonstration garden at the site in 2007. At the time, the land was owned by Century Group, which had not yet submitted a formal development application for the Southlands, and the company provided Earthwise with a 20-year

The Earthwise Farm won’t be impacted, but the Earthwise Farm must move to accommodate the Market Square portion of the Southlands development. lease for $1 annually. Having expressed their support for Century’s development vision, the society would go on to develop its small parcel for a variety of education programs, but apparently didn’t seem to anticipate it would now be losing part of its operation. According to Delta, certain works have to be

undertaken, although the Earthwise Garden area will not be impacted by the construction and will be retained in its current location. “Of the area impacted, the Earthwise Farm and allotment gardens would be displaced, with the affected gardeners given priority to relocate to this area in the future. The

final plans for the area in question would include a rain garden, apiary, picnic gathering area, allotment gardens, and a demonstration area for the Earthwise Farm. Upon completion of the works, the Earthwise Society will continue to have a presence in the Market Square area,” according to the Delta release.

The municipality also states that from the beginning of the application process, a public Market Square has been part of the plans for the Southlands, so the relocation of the Earthwise Farm is consistent with those plans. The Earthwise Society has been promised it will continue “to have a strong presence in the Market Square and will be provided a new area within the agricultural portion of the Southlands site for the Earthwise Farm.” A society spokesperson said yesterday that it has been given until the Thanksgiving weekend to harvest crops on its farm so they’re not lost, but at this point a new plot for farming likely won’t be available until 2019 at the earliest. The loss of farm revenue, which helps fund Earthwise’s education programs, would be “devastating” for the society, the spokesperson said. She said they’re hopeful that continued discussions will result in a positive outcome.

Paton urges members to focus on spring election

CONTINUED from Page 1 He noted that as a councillor he’s been willing to make difficult decisions, even if they meant voting against the mayor or his fellow councillors. A life-long Ladner resident and farmer, Paton’s platform includes preserving farmland and ensuring

responsible port growth. Thanking his supporters after the votes were announced, and especially his wife Pam who stood beside him at the podium, Paton acknowledged Cessford as well as the retired chief’s supporters, asking, “Let’s just keep it together, let’s just

put whatever happened tonight, put it in the past… let’s just keep focused for May of 2017 and let’s get this riding back to the Liberals.” In his opening speech, Cessford, who described Delta South as a powerhouse riding, said he’s terrible at spin, adding he

always only focused on whatever is the right thing to do. In his speech later in the evening, he said he learned a lot from the process. “Who knows, I may try this again someday,” said Cessford, who spent two decades as Delta’s police chief.

Riding association president Kelly Guichon said the race between two good candidates was beneficial as the local membership shot up from around 300 to approximately 1,300. She said it shows there’s a lot of interest in the next provincial election, which is set for May 9, 2017.

Whistler

Alaskan Malamute/Husky Mix Breed, Grey and White, Neutered Male Adult, (Approximately 1 year old)

Whistler came to the shelter through the Traveling Tails program. This rambunctious, active pup loves to run and is looking for an active, dog-savvy home. He is working on his basic commands and learning to keep his very large paws on the floor. Whistler would do best in a home that will continue his training and has experience with his breed. Not surprising, Whistler loves to chase cats and small animals so will need to find a home without them. He is very dog social and could live with another dog but due to his sheer size we feel that Whistler would do best in an adult only home as he could easily knock down children. If you have an active household and are looking to bring your new best friend along for the ride Whistler is your boy!

CONTINUED from Page 1 In response to the growing concern around fentanyl and a Sept. 1 incident in South Delta that saw nine non-fatal overdoses during a 20-minute period, Delta police co-hosted a pair of information forums last week with the Delta School District and Fraser Health. Speakers discussed a range of fentanyl topics including what fentanyl is, why it’s dangerous, how prevalent it is and how it can impact even casual users and their families. “The forums were a good start,” said King. “We all realize that parents and youth are very concerned about what they are hearing about the overdose issues. We also know there

FENTANYL FACTS What is fentanyl?: Fentanyl is a substance that has been found in an increased number of overdose deaths. It is a synthetic opioid, 50 to 100 times more toxic than morphine. Pharmaceutical fentanyl is used medically as a painkiller or anaesthetic. There has been an increase in recent years in illicitly produced fentanyl being sold as tablets, powder and cut into other drugs. What is Naloxone?: Naloxone is a medication that can reverse an overdose. Naloxone is available free to people who use drugs and can be purchased at pharmacies for non-drug users. is a decrease in substance abuse in youth who have strong relationships with their parents and adults. If you have a loving and supportive relationship with adults, you don’t have those feelings of hopelessness and isolation, which

can lead to these substance abuse issues. “This is a sudden and explosive epidemic with fentanyl abuse, but we also want to create resilience related to all substance abuse, harmful alcohol abuse and other addic-

tions that pose problems to our young people,” she said. ••• Delta police have confirmed that one person was arrested in connection with the drug trafficking investigation and the Sept. 1 suspected fentanylrelated cocaine overdoses in South Delta. A/Sgt. Sarah Swallow said the suspect has been released without charge pending further investigation. Swallow said the investigation itself remains active. “At this point, our investigation is focused on the trafficking aspect rather than the personal possession aspect of the incident,” Swallow said.

TFN doesn’t have site picked for casino

First Nation expresses interest but doesn’t include specifics in response to lottery corporation SANDOR GYARMATI

s g y a r m a t i @ d e l t a - o p t i m i s t .c o m

They’re interested but don’t have anything specific in mind just yet. That’s essentially the response the B.C. Lottery Corporation received from the Tsawwassen First Nation when it confirmed it’s interested in being a host community for a casino. This summer, the lottery corporation asked three local governments south of the Fraser River — Delta, the Tsawwassen First Nation and Surrey — if they were interested in playing host to a gaming facility. Surrey declined but both the Corporation of Delta and the TFN submitted expressions of interest, which included answering a series of questions regarding community plans, zoning and whether the government would be able to amend any restrictions within six months. The TFN provided the Optimist with a copy of its submission, which states it has areas zoned for

entertainment but those uses do not include a casino, so a rezoning would be required. It’s the same answer provided in the Delta submission. In 2012, the TFN government passed a zoning amendment to prohibit gaming facilities, which is why a rezoning is now required, while a longstanding stipulation in Delta’s bylaws also prohibits casinos. Both also answered they currently have no FILE PHOTO restrictions that The Tsawwassen First Nation and the Corporation of Delta have both expressed interest would limit the in playing host to a casino. number of slot a tourist attraction that including the process cific site, speculation outmachines or gamaligns with the objectives side the First Nation is that moving forward. ing tables in a future facilof Delta’s Tourism Strategy The Delta submission a casino/hotel would be ity. to increase visitor volumes was fairly detailed as far in proximity or tied to the Unlike Delta’s submisand awareness about as what the municipaldestination shopping mall sion, which includes a Delta as a tourist destiity envisions for a facilcomplex opening there potential location, the nation, while extending ity, describing it as “a early next month.

the municipality, is the Delta Town & Country Inn property at the junction of Highway 17A and 99. “The 11-acre site is physically separate from Delta’s residential communities, and offers excellent transportation accessibility to people from within and outside of Delta via major transportation corridors, including the replacement bridge for the George Massey Tunnel,” the civic report states. In a letter to Mayor Lois Jackson, property owner Ron Toigo expressed support for a casino, saying the site may be ideal. BCLC says the expression of interest process is intended to be an initial step in gauging interest and does not constitute a commitment by BCLC or the local government. BCLC estimates a host local government would receive between $1.5 million and $3 million annually. It seems a long way off from what the City of Richmond has been receiving from the River Rock, revenue that peaked at $21 million in 2014.

Cenotaph and pathway unveiled at ’Bay airport

The Corporation of Delta unveiled a new Boundary Bay Airport cenotaph and officially opened the Air Cadet Commemorative Pathway last Sunday to celebrate the 75th anniversaries of the airport and the Air Cadet League of Canada (air cadets). The project also pays homage to the 29 airmen who lost their lives while serving at Royal Canadian Air Force Station Boundary Bay during the Second World War. The public is invited to reflect on the untold stories and photos posted along the pathway, detailing the sacrifices of our veterans. In the centre of the pathway sits the newly constructed, eight-foot tall granite cenotaph that recognizes those who served at Boundary Bay between 1941 and 1945. “Canada’s veterans were instrumental in protecting our freedom,” said Mayor Lois Jackson. “The cenotaph and pathway allows us to walk back through history to properly honour their memory.”

PHOTO BY GORD GOBLE

A new cenotpah was unveiled last weekend to mark the 75th anniversary of the Royal Canadian Air Force Station Boundary Bay. The project was initiated by the air cadets after having approached the Corporation of Delta with a proposal to develop a garden at Boundary Bay Airport to commemorate the anniversary of the organization’s establishment. The project quickly developed into a larger memorial that both chronicles Delta’s rich aviation history and properly commemorates the coinciding 75th anniversaries of the air cadets and the airport. Delta staff decided on

the entrance to the terminal as an ideal location to give the monument and pathway the prominence and recognition they deserve. “This project was only possible through all of the generous support we’ve received,” said Air Cadet League of Canada director Ron Rique. “We are able to forever honour the past, celebrate the present and be optimistic of our future through the youth we are developing today.”

Murphy’s Law

TED MURPHY

t looks like the honeymoon is over. Like any newly-minted politician, Carla Qualtrough was the darling of the electorate last fall when she swept aside Conservative incumbent Kerry-Lynne Findlay to easily capture the reconfigured riding of Delta for Justin Trudeau’s Liberals. Seizing on growing unrest among local voters thanks to the federal government’s handling of issues such as the radio towers, port expansion, environmental protection and more, Qualtrough rode a red wave into office on a pledge that she would respond to constituents’ concerns. There was a sense that Findlay, the minister of national revenue, was bringing Ottawa to us, not the other way around, an arrangement Qualtrough said had to change. Outspoken during the campaign, she described Terminal 2 as a disaster waiting to happen and suggested the proposal shouldn’t have even got to this stage, statements that excited voters who were weary of the economy-at-allcosts approach of the Conservatives. It’s coming up on a year in office for our rookie MP, which means constituents are looking for her to deliver on that election talk, yet the rumblings beginning to be heard are something quite different. Qualtrough met with several environmental advocates this summer, which appeared to be a good first step, but some that left the meeting with the sense that not much has changed in Ottawa. More recently, she announced the feds were investing $2 million in an effort to attract international shipping companies to the West Coast, which would suggest that T2, the port’s plan to accommodate container growth, would be moving ahead. This has left many people disillusioned. Maybe it’s too soon to pass judgment on Qualtrough, who must balance her local responsibilities with the cabinet portfolio of sport and persons with disabilities, but the early indications aren’t necessarily encouraging. That tough talk during the campaign has disappeared in her new role. Voters in these parts have elected politicians like John Cummins and Vicki Huntington because they want someone to stand up on their behalf. Qualtrough pledged last fall she’d do that too. It’s time she started delivering on that promise.

Changes will only continue as Delta takes on different look

s we enter the fall season, itself a time of change, it gives one a chance to pause and reflect on local and personal changes. Retired for a year now after 59 years of occupational pursuits, it was time to enter the penultimate lifestyle. Reportedly a retired wag once stated, “I wake up in the morning with nothing to do and by the end of the day I’m only half finished.” Sound familiar? I remain interested and active in community affairs and the days quickly pass. As one who spent the first 20 years living in Delta’s pre-tunnel era, I am one of a few who, comparatively speaking, appreciates changes in Delta. The immediate local population increase post-tunnel was extreme, and there was rapid residential growth in all areas south of the Fraser River. Canada’s population has increased by more than 50 per cent in the past half century. As the saying goes, change is the only constant and the rapidity of change is directly related to the increase in Canada’s population and the desirability of West Coast living. One hundred years ago, half of Canada’s population were farmers. In the same period the majority of Delta citizens lived on or supported themselves on farm acreage. Now less than two per

cent of Canadians are farmers. Similarly, Delta has suffered the loss of hundreds of farms. Fortunately, the current generation of farmers has adapted to new technologies and crops and is able to feed more people at less cost while remaining viable. Less fortunate is our fishing industry, dramatically affected by declining salmon runs entering our industrialized Fraser River. Further changes are rapidly taking place in land use in Delta, very little of which is under the Corporation of Delta’s purview. Not long ago Delta was lamenting the lack of industry to offset property taxation on our bedroom community. How quickly business and industry dynamics have found Delta an ideal location. Currently the port authority is shaping public opinion on the need for additional back-up

lands to support port expansion. First Nations and local farmers are engaged in discussions with federal and provincial authorities over the status of Brunswick Point lands. Market value of land adjacent to TFN has increased dramatically. We cannot understate TFN’s commercial and retail development in reshaping Delta’s landscape without any direct benefits. Hopefully there will be indirect financial spinoffs from traffic generated from this development. Further changes start in 2017 with the construction of a 10-lane bridge (some say to nowhere) replacing the George Massey Tunnel. It is scheduled to open in 2022. The tunnel could easily service Delta commuters, even with the Southlands development, but the new bridge addresses substantial growth in Surrey and Langley while accommodating larger container traffic accessing river ports. Dare we suggest a north-south crossing matching up with Boundary Road? Lastly, climate change is a factor in Delta’s future. Height requirements for dikes have potential to offload costs. So much change, so little time to digest. Hope you had a relaxing summer. And a good night to all Deltans. A fourth generation Ladnerite, Doug Husband is a former mayor of Delta.

TFN mega mall does little to build community

Editor: “What do you think of the new mall coming to South Delta?” If you are a retailer in South Delta, I’m pretty sure you have heard this question hundreds of times in the last few months. With the opening of the Tsawwassen Mills mega mall next month, the face of retail as we know it will change dramatically — for better or for worse, depending on your point of view. As the owner of the Runinn Delta for 15 years in Tsawwassen, I know the mall will initially have an adverse effect on my busi-

ness but I am optimistic that once the hoopla dies down, we will remain an integral part of the community of Delta. When a customer asks me what I think of the mall, I answer them honestly that I am not happy about a big mall coming into our backyard. I believe in a sense of community and as a 25-year resident of South Delta, I think a mall of that size will only hurt a lot of the small businesses here. South Delta has a population of approximately 52,000 people, of which about 20,000 are income earners, which means

that in order for the mall to succeed it will need to draw about 90 per cent of its business from outside Delta. This does not create a sense of community. When we support our locally-owned and operated businesses, we keep over 80 per cent of that money in our community. We pay property taxes, business licences, water, power, etc., which all go into supporting our community, pay for police, fire and engineering, among other services. As well, small businesses provide a majority of the donations to local events, like your baseball

MP should be leading fight for Fraser Editor: Re: Federal government shows its hand by putting environment behind economy, letter to the editor, Sept. 14 Letter writer Peter van der Velden is quite right to remind our local MP, Carla Qualtrough, that she and Pierre Trudeau’s son Justin ran on a platform that promised concern for the environment; he’s correct too to remind us that Qualtrough expressed personal concerns about the proposal to replace the George Massey Tunnel with a bridge. Rivers are lost to the environment

once they’re industrialized. Qualtrough should be leading the fight to see that Canada’s transportation needs are met without industrializing the Fraser. To the port, the Fraser and our agricultural lands look like a land of plenty that they can industrialize easily and cheaply without giving a thought to efficient use of land and without having to consider the environmental consequences. There ports that are far more efficient and far more ecological than Port Metro Vancouver

already in operation the world over, so why aren’t Qualtrough and Trudeau holding them up as good examples? Finally, Qualtrough and Trudeau should remember they weren’t elected: Stephen Harper and Kerry-Lynne Findlay were defeated. Governments are not elected, they’re defeated. Qualtrough and Trudeau should remember, too, they won a mere 39.47 per cent of the popular vote, slightly less than Harper got, 39.62, when he won his only majority. Greg J. Edwards

teams, hockey leagues, charities and events. There will be no tax benefit to Delta coming from the mall. I buy my tires from Randy’s Tire and Auto Center because he goes the extra mile when you need to get your car fixed and his family and his staff support my store. I get my books from Albany Books because they know what I like to read, know my name when I go in and have great customer service. I buy my coffee at Petra’s because they roast their own coffee locally and have probably employed

hundreds of young adults in Delta. I shop at Lucky because they have supported every community charity event that we have put on and have great staff and product. All of these actions are a calculated decision on my part to support the community I live in. I understand there are new stores in the mall that a lot of our customers will want to shop at because they don’t want to go through the tunnel to get something they can’t find in South Delta. I agree with them. I also understand there will be

jobs created at the mall for a lot of people. These things are good for all of us. We all need to think about what is important to us as a community. If we can find what we need in our local Ladner and Tsawwassen stores, then we need to support them first because that’s what will keep our community thriving. The Runinn Delta promises better customer service, product knowledge and continued support at our community events. Kevin Ridley Owner, Runinn Delta

Patient pleased with hospital

Editor: This letter is to thank the staff of the day surgery unit at Delta Hospital after an almost pleasant morning there as a patient. The environment was clean, calm and organized. Every staff member, without exception, took time to make me truly comfortable at each stage, and to clearly explain what was going on at every step. This really helps when you are groggy and disoriented after fasting for hours and wak-

ing up supremely early in the morning, not to mention suffering pain from the problem and anxiety about the procedure. I have experienced so much worse elsewhere — rushed through a succession of impersonal and unexplained processing by multiple remote technicians with little apparent interest in anything beyond getting to the next bed. Oh could they learn from Ladner. As for my recovery, it has been less than 24 hours, but I am mobile

and virtually pain-free despite four incisions, which tells me the surgery and anesthesia were also first class. I wish to publicly thank not only the ER doctors who diagnosed my problem, but also Dr. Robibo and the entire team involved in its resolution, for their absolutely caring and “care-full” professionalism. And there’s free parking. Support your local hospital. Ken Adams

Happy 70th

Editor: On behalf of the board of directors and staff at Delta Farmland & Wildlife Trust, we would like to express our heartfelt thanks to all of you who attended the Day at the Farm community event at Westham Island Herb Farm. We are quite proud to report that crowd numbers tallied over 4,250 — an impressive record for this event. The Ellis family is celebrating 100 years of farming on Westham Island this year. We truly appreciate the amount of hard work and planning the Ellis family takes on in order to host this event. Thank you for continuing an amazing partnership year after year and opening up your farm for everyone to enjoy and learn. We would also like to thank our generous sup-

porters without whom we could not host such an event. We are extremely grateful to the following organizations for their generous contributions: BC Fresh, BC Ministry of Agriculture Foundation, BC Youth in Agriculture Foundation, Berryhill Foods, Corporation of Delta, Dairyland, Delta Agricultural Society, Envision Financial, Farm Credit Canada, Ian Paton, Johnson Meier Insurance, Ladner Village Hardware, Lundstrum Farms, Metro Vancouver Ag Awareness Fund, Ritchie-Smith Feeds, Save-on-Foods, Tecarte Farms, Terralink, Thrifty Foods, Vancity Tsawwassen Branch & Community Foundation, Westcoast Seeds, WestGen Endowment Fund, Westshore Terminals and White Spot. To the hard working

volunteers who gave their time and tireless efforts throughout the day, thank you so very much for helping to make this day a success. To our participants, thank you for giving up part of your weekend to help spread the word about the importance of local agriculture and to raise awareness about its relationship to wildlife

Earthwise deserves better treatment

Editor: Several weeks ago the Earthwise Society received a directive from Century Group to clear out its produce garden, the hoop houses in which heirloom tomatoes are grown, the compost heap, the cob oven and some of the allotment gardens by Oct. 1. If not cleared out by that date, they would be bulldozed. Earthwise produce, including tomatoes, sold to the public is still grow-

ing. To destroy it now would destroy some of Earthwise’s income stream for the remainder of this year. That includes the 250 feet of asparagus beds that produce amazingly tasty asparagus. Such destruction seems to be wanton. Is it really necessary? Earthwise has advised Century it is unable to remove its infrastructure and produce by this date. Will Century and Delta council work with

Earthwise to reach a more equitable solution? Now more recently, Earthwise has been advised by Century Group it may be required to share its allocated space with other growers. That is not what was designated in the bylaw approved by council. So, what is this all about? Is it a broken promise or something else? It is clear that serious discussion and resolution of these issues needs to

occur. In closing, I need to make it clear I am a former director of the Earthwise board. Also, I state I have not been coached by Earthwise or Patricia Fleming to write this letter. However, I believe the Earthwise Society is a valuable force within this community and that changes need to be discussed and resolved in a spirit of goodwill, not by brute directives.

Opinion

Bridge is Clark’s $3.5-billion vanity project

Undertaking crossing when cheaper solutions exist will prove costly for other communities Richmond is about to become Los Angeles if the vanity bridge is built. The three-level interchange proposed by the provincial government will tower over the highway and dwarf the apartments and businesses nearby. With no improvements planned for local roads, including the intersection of Steveston Highway and No. 5 Road, the traffic could be stopped on the elevated off-ramp waiting for the traffic light and emitting toxic exhaust in front of the residential and commercial area. It is time for the province to work with the Metro Vancouver Mayors’ Council and accept that the mayors’ transportation plan for an integrated system is better than the George Massey Tunnel Replacement Project. In the past, two different plans were announced, one by former transportation minister Kevin Falcon and the other by former premier Bill Vander Zalm, both of which allowed for twinning of the tunnel and more buses, and the price tag was far lower than the $3.5 billion for this proposed project. NDP Leader John Horgan was quoted on CKNW recently as saying, “I think the Massey replacement is a Premier (Christy) Clark project, it is a vanity project that she put on the table, it is not a priority for the region, it is not a priority for the local mayors... The region wants their regional projects to go forward.” So now it’s official, the vanity bridge is an election issue and it will be watched by the entire province. Smaller communities across B.C. will learn that the proposed bridge would be the longest cable bridge in North America and it is not a priority for Metro Vancouver and that cheaper, more efficient transportation solutions are available that are supported by the mayors’ council. Other communities across B.C. should ask themselves what interchange or highway improvement they’re not going to get when $3.5 billion goes towards a new bridge. Who cares

will be accepted as the future for the transportation needs of the region. In the meantime, I will do my best to educate fellow councillors from across B.C. to the dilemma we find ourselves in when I attend the UBCM confer-

relationship will develop between our MLAs and the City of Richmond so our concerns can be heard in Victoria. I also hope the mayors’ council will be heard by the province loud and clear and its good advice, research and plans

A maze of on- and off-ramps are planned for the Steveston Highway interchange. if we move the traffic from south of the George Massey Tunnel to south of the Oak Street Bridge? We need a regional plan that connects the dots and the mayors’ council has already developed that plan. Location of the bridge tower on the north edge of the Fraser River is concerning because it is the only place in Richmond at extreme risk of liquefaction in the event of an earthquake. According to the information supplied by the provincial government, the Red Zone encircles the tower and it seems illogical to build such a structure on unstable ground. The tunnel is on a bed of sand and is able to move as needed if an earthquake should occur and gates will come down at the entrance of the tunnel if the sensors detect an earthquake. What would happen to people and cars already on the 10-lane bridge if there was a significant earthquake? The $3.5 billion price tag for the bridge is really a tax but it will likely be considerably higher when you calculate the additional potential costs. For example, the Port Mann Bridge lost $82.5 million last year and $89 million the year before, while next year a $102 million loss is projected and $106 million the year after that. This could add up to $5 billion over 50 years. The bridge tolls are a form of tax and if the toll for the bridge to replace the tunnel is $7.30 each way, as has been projected, and 115,000 vehicles travel over the bridge over a 50-year period as projected, we could be talking a $15.3 billion tax. So at

this point it is reasonable to conclude the mayors’ plan is a bargain and rapid transit along with the support network are the only practical way to go. My hope is that common sense will be applied and a better working

because our global access to hearing such problems is readily available with the click of a button for radio, TV, Internet and social media. This is destructive response out of frustration. But there is a differ-

ent way. Frustration can fuel focused response. Communities can draw together around common frustrations and together make wise decisions how to address them. Instead of letting emotional reaction drive us, we can draw on other motivational tools. Reasoned, planned, fact-based and spiritually-supported processes may take some time and resources but people with committed hearts and minds can and have gained productive solutions for the good of many. Scripture exhorts us to this goal. “… whatever is noble, right, pure, lovely, admirable, excellent or praiseworthy — thinks about such things… and the Gods of peace will be with you.” (Phil. 4)

Frustration is an interesting thing that happens to we human creatures and the effect it has on our reaction is something to be aware of. For those who feel unjustly treated, frustration can fuel either destructive reactions or focused response. Protests are often fueled by frustration toward systems that repeatedly do not do what is expected, do not respond effectively, if at all, when the problem is identified, or in the worst case scenario, choose not to listen. This is when we see a spiked rise in emotions that can easily boil over into violence. We see this through the news on a seemingly increasing scale. It may also seem so prevalent

he Delta Cup DanceSport Gala is returning to the KinVillage Community Centre for its second edition next month. The ballroom dancing competition, organized by the husband and wife team of George and Wendy Pytlik, debuted last year at the Tsawwassen venue. It turned out to be very successful and got “rave reviews” from judges, dancers and attendees, says Wendy. “We were very thrilled, because you never know with your first year, how it’s going to go. To get that kind of positive feedback was just really exciting for us,” she says. The event has been expanded from a single day to three and runs Oct. 7 to 9. “That gives us an opportunity to have more events going on … and we added showcase couples,” says George. Special showcase performances are scheduled for the Friday (with a top professional American smooth couple) and Saturday (with one of the top rising star couples in Latin) evenings. A dance camp with the event’s judges takes place on the Sunday. As for the competition, there will be three sessions, Friday evening, Saturday during the day and Saturday evening. “All three sessions have all of the dance styles represented,” he explains. Approximately 200 competitors are expected to take part. While the majority are Lower Mainland dancers, some competitors are travelling from Florida, Texas, Seattle, Alberta and possibly Montreal, they note. Spectators are encouraged to cheer on the competitors by yelling out the dancers’ number or names. “The audience can go home just as tired as the dancers,” Wendy says with a laugh.

George and Wendy Pytlik are bringing their Delta Cup DanceSport Gala ballroom dancing competition back to the KinVillage Community Centre next month. Competitive ballroom dancing is called dancesport “because you have to be an athlete to do it, but then it is still an art,” she explains. “When they know there’s people there cheer-

ing for them, it gives them a boost and they work even harder… it’s really fun to see that interaction going on,” says George, noting dancers expend incredible amounts of energy.

A brochure for the event notes the Pytliks are ballroom dance teachers and were B.C.’s seven-time undefeated Latin champions in the 35-plus age group. The event has a

Stars come into focus in Boundary Bay program

Interested in astronomy but not sure where to begin? The Boundary Bay Park Association provides an opportunity to join other amateur astronomers for Stars in Focus on Saturday, Oct. 1 from 8 to 10 p.m. The date has been specifically selected as it’s also a new moon when the moon will be located on the same side of the Earth as the sun and will not be visible in the night sky. This phase will present an opportunity to observe faint objects such as galaxies because there will be no moonlight to interfere. Visibility, however, will be influenced by weather conditions. Stars in Focus will be broken into two components. The indoor session will be held in the historic Cammidge House in Boundary Bay Regional Park where an astrophysics student as well as members of the Royal Astronomical Society will make a presentation.

The Boundary Bay Park Association presents Stars in Focus next Saturday night. Light boxes will be provided for watching common constellations and other contributors will offer knowledgeable background. The success of the outdoor component to follow — weather permitting — has been well planned. Lights will be turned off, red cellophane and rubber bands will be provided to cover flashlights, and some scopes and telescopes will be available. The more experienced astronomers are encouraged to bring their own equipment.

Closing time will be flexible up to midnight. Neil Simpson, a member of the co-ordinating committee, says those with cameras and interested in astrophotography are welcome. “It’s a hobby that requires patience, experimentation and determination,” says Simpson. Hot chocolate and light refreshments will be available. For more information, call 604-943-1303 or visit boundarybayparkassociation.wordpress.com.

Unique muscle fibers play role in outcome

They influence how we respond to exercise

Have you ever wondered why some people seem to get faster and stronger more easily than others? Or, if you’re a woman, why squats and lunges seem to build your thighs up to a point where you could be mistaken for a Russian weightlifter while your friend doesn’t seem to have that problem? And then there’s those individuals who are able to run for days, while you peter out before the end of your block. What gives? Are these people gifted? Do they possess some sort of mutant gene and are now being recruited by some bald guy in a wheelchair (this joke will go right over anyone’s head who has not seen X-Men)? What is really at play here? After we take into account general fitness (because if you ain’t working out, you can’t expect to be faster and stronger, can you?), it’s muscle fibers. That’s what’s different. Every muscle in your body is unique and no two muscles are the same due to types of muscle fibers. You see, all of our muscles are made up of specific types of fibers, and it’s these fibers that influence how we will respond to exercise. Some fibers will make us better at long distance, others with short and fast bursts of exercise, while

2017 calendar sales to benefit Rotary’s splash park project

SUBMITTED PHOTO

All Saints hosts a Messy Church kick-off party tomorrow afternoon.

Messy Church returns

All Saints Anglican Church hosts a Messy Church kick-off party this Saturday at 4 p.m. This free event welcomes “kids” of all ages for messy (often edible) crafts, stories, singing and a free family meal after the activities. Offered once a month, Messy Church allows kids to make all kinds of mess and do the crafts that make many parents sigh at the thought of the clean up if they’re done at home. This Saturday’s kick-off party will feature some especially messy

goings on both outside and inside the church. All Saints is beginning renovation work to make the space more modern, accessible and userfriendly. With an improved building, the church at the corner of Arthur Drive and Ladner Trunk Road hopes to reach out further to local families and provide more opportunities for making connections such as a toy library and craft days for all ages as well as continuing to offer a free meal once a month.

Children are the focus of proceeds from the sale of 2017 Rotary calendars this fall. Starting this weekend, Rotarians will once again be selling the calendars at food and pharmacy outlets throughout South Delta with 100 per cent of proceeds going to local charities or service projects. The 2017 calendar showcases the community and its heritage through photographs. The calendar is also a lottery, with cash prizes ranging from $100 to $1,000 in weekly draws throughout the year. “Calendar sales this year will support the final stages of funding for the new Rotary Club of Ladner splash park which we are developing with our partner, the Corporation of Delta, and with the help of various sponsors and donors,” says Rotary Club of Ladner president Walt Hayward. “We hope that construction of the new water play

“That sponsorship allows us to devote 100 per cent of calendar sales to the charities or projects chosen for the year,” says Hayward. For more information, visit www.rotaryladner.org.

Got Sports?

Courtney Vorster credits her time in South Delta Hockey Academy’s Skills Program in helping her become one of the top upand-coming players in the country. The 16-year-old blueliner from Richmond wore the maple leaf jersey for the very first time this summer when she was one of three B.C. players named to Hockey Canada’s U18 national team for a three game series against the United States. The roster was finalized following a Summer Showcase selection camp in Calgary. Vorster would be one of just three 2000-born players picked. “Playing for Canada for the first time was an experience I will never forget,” she reflected. “Just having the opportunity to be able to play a sport that you love, with amazing coaches and teammates, then represent the country that you love is truly an honour. When I put the jersey on, especially for the first time I was immediately filled with excitement and chills in my body.” It should only be the start of more good things to come in national team colours. If all goes well, Vorster will also be playing for Canada at the 2017 IIHF

U18 Women’s World Championship, slated for January in the Czech Republic. She will be further evaluated at the 2016 National U18 Women’s Hockey Championships, set for Nov. 9-13 in Regina. She is a lock to make the B.C. roster after being the youngest player on the team a year ago Vorster had little time to catch her breath — arriving home from national team duties and leaving for the provincial camp two days later. “The few days after Calgary were very hectic!” she continued. “It would be an unbelievable experience to be able to go to Worlds representing Canada. I am going to continue to play as I did in Calgary, plus push myself to get better so that when the World tournament does come, I will know that I have put myself in the best place I can be for getting a chance of playing with a great group of girls and coaches.” She is spending her Grade 11 year at at Shattuck-St. Mary’s — the renowned hockey boarding school that includes Sydney Crosby, Jonathan Toews, Zach Parise and U.S. women’s team star Amanda Kessell among its alumni. Vorster headed to Minnesota last year after attending South Delta

Delta Hockey Academy alumni Courtney Vorster is now in her second year at renowned Shattuck-St. Mary’s in Minnesota. Secondary and being enrolled in the academy’s skill development program. “The Delta Hockey Academy was an awesome fit for me at that time in my life as it really helped me to get a bases of what training hard everyday was and still being able to manage school,” said Vorster. “Taking the things I learned at SDSS and con-

tinuing to use them here at SSM has made my time amazing.” She has successfully secured a spot on the Sabres’ U19 Prep team, that regularly contends for U.S. high school championships. Last season, Vorster helped the Sabres U16 team capture the national title, finishing third among defenceman in scoring.

Her stint down south certainly sets her up for one of the biggest prizes among elite female hockey players — a full-ride scholarship to an NCAA Division One school. It’s no surprise Vorster was heavily recruited and has already made a verbal commitment to Quinnipiac University in Connecticut for the fall of 2018.

Pearson takes her volleyball game to Fraser Valley

Former South Delta Sun Devils volleyball standout Cassidy Pearson is taking her collegiate career closer to home. After spending her freshman year at the University of Manitoba, Pearson will be playing this coming season with the University of Fraser Valley Cascades. The Abbotsford school will open its schedule Oct. 14 against Capilano University. Pearson, a 6-foot hard-hitting left-side hitter, averaged 2.14 kills per set with Manitoba and is expected to make an immediate impact with

the Cascades. “This is a young lady who was starting not only in CIS, but in Canada West, which is in the toughest conference by far,” said Cascades head coach Mike Gilray. “We’re really excited to have her swinging outside for us. We hope that being home and being surrounded by family and friends will create a great volleyball experience for her. We’re really happy to have her.” Pearson helped the Sun Devils win three consecutive provincial championships. She was a junior call-up in her Grade 10 year and made

an immediate impact as South Delta captured its first-ever B.C. title. She earned second team all-star honours in the Sun Devils’ run to the 2014 championship in her final season. “During my time as a Cascade, my goal is to meet new people along with becoming the best person and volleyball player I can be,” stated Pearson, who begins her academic career at UFV in general studies. “I’m excited to attend UFV because it gives me the opportunity to stay close to home while I play the sport I’m passionate about.”

Ice Hawks comeback falls short A late third period rally fell just short for the Delta Ice Hawks against the lone remaining unbeaten team in the Pacific Junior Hockey League. The Grandview Steelers built up a three-goal lead then held off the Ice Hawks 3-2 on Tuesday night in Ladner to improve to 4-0-0-1 on the season. The visitors took a 1-0 advantage into the final 20 minutes and looked to be in full control after a pair of goals by Mateo Coltellaro. However, Jordan Deyrmenjian put the Ice Hawks on the scoreboard and Jonathan Stein added another with 1:49

remaining. Jacob Latrace turned aside 29 shots in a losing cause. He made 32 saves last Saturday in Delta’s 6-3 road win over the Port Moody Panthers. Henry Rhyu broke a 3-3 deadlock midway through the final frame. Emptynetters from Stein and Jordan Bogress, with his second of the night, sealed the outcome. The Hawks (2-3-0-0) will get another crack at the Steelers, this time on Sunday afternoon at the Burnaby Winter Club. They also host Port Moody on Tuesday.

No funeral by request, mom’s life will be celebrated with a small private gathering. Many thanks to the wonderful and caring staff at the Waterford L1 Care Facility and care companions. They gave our family nine additional fabulous months with our beloved mom. In lieu of flowers, donations to the Alzheimer’s Society or the S.P.C.A would be greatly appreciated.

Maddin leaves loving memories to be cherished by his wife Janette, his daughter Heather (Andrew) and his sons Stewart (Sarah) and Robert (Amanda). His grandchildren Karly, Kassie, Maddie, Emily, Kylah, Hannah, Ben, Ewan, Oliver and Liam will miss their Papa. Maddin also felt fortunate to have many other loving family and friends in his life.
