Liberal MLA says province will have to address HST petitioners
‘Can’t ignore court of public opinion’ Alex Browne Staff Reporter
As all three local MLAs await a looming B.C. Supreme Court decision on the Fight HST petition, they remain adamant implementing the new tax was the right thing for B.C. However, while Stephanie Cadieux (Surrey-Panorama) says she is hopeful that there will soon be an end to Gordon Hogg the political impasse, Gordon Hogg Surrey-White Rock (Surrey-White Rock) goes one step fur-
ther, noting he is sure a committee of the B.C. legislature will have to address the issues raised by the anti-HST campaign. The petition, championed by former premier Bill Vander Zalm – which won the signatures of 700,000 B.C. residents – is in court as a result of a challenge from a coalition of business groups that claims it is not valid under the province’s initiative legislation, because the HST is a federal tax, not subject to
provincial laws. A counterclaim filed by Vander Zalm’s lawyer argues that imposition of the HST by the B.C. Liberals should be declared unconstitutional because it was not voted on in the provincial legislature. All arguments were expected to be heard by Supreme Court Justice Robert Bauman by the end of this week, and if the decision upholds the Fight HST position, and if the business coalition
stands by its claim it will not appeal a negative decision, Vander Zalm’s proposed HST Extinguishment Act can be passed on for consideration by a committee of the B.C. Legislature. Cadieux said she respects – and believes the provincial government respects – the rights of those who signed the petition. “There’s a law in place that provides the opportunity for people (to present see page 4

Goodbye Earl’s Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter
Any lingering doubts as to the future of the Earls Restaurant in South Surrey were erased Tuesday, when the entire contents of the 1767 152 St. business were auctioned off to address unpaid bills. Marvel Auctions’ Kyle Martin said between 70 and 100 people – including a number of South Surrey and White Rock restaurateurs – turned out for the four-hour event, where everything except the wall-attached dining booths were sold. There were bargains aplenty, Martin said. “There were definitely really good deals. TVs were going out the door for $75, the chandelier in the front went for $50, cable boxes went for $50 for two... A $7,000 chest freezer went for 100 bucks.” The restaurant had been a part of the Peninsula for 18 years, one of more than a dozen independently owned locations in the chain. Its doors were closed May 16. Initially, signage indicated the closure was due to renovations. However, Mark Barry, human resources vice-president for the Earls head office, said in June that the restaurant would likely not reopen. Earls White Rock owner Al Merriman declined comment at that time. On-site Tuesday, Merriman

He is spending time in Osoyoos, and has an 11-monthold child, he said. According to a notice on the front door this week, the South Surrey business was in the red for $55,836.01. “They just got behind in rent,” Martin said. “The owner… he was trying to make it and unfortunately he just couldn’t get back on his feet.”
FANTASTIC BARGAINS Look for... Simmon’s Flyer in today’s Peace Arch News
Martin cited a shift in dining trends to establishments such as Milestones, Cactus Club and the Keg as among factors that led to the Earls closure. As well, the Peninsula’s aging demographic gravitates towards more family-style restaurants, he said. The struggling economy has not helped, he noted. In situations where business owners can’t pay their bills, the landlord can seize the assets, have a bailiff appraise their worth and
give a deadline to clear the debt, Martin said. If that deadline isn’t met, the assets can be sold. Martin noted landlords typically don’t make money in the process; it just “gets the tenant out of there, so he can re-rent the building.” Marvel Auctions was contracted by the bailiff to handle Tuesday’s auction. Martin declined to disclose the day’s proceeds, but noted the event was one of two such auctions his family’s Richmond-based see page 4

He worked his way into management and was both a close confidant (and good friend) of longtime Chief Al Cleaver, as well as an excellent trainer of new firefighters, seminar instructor and negotiator. I’ll remember Lorne best for his tremendous insights into Surrey’s past. The Valley of the Fraser, a book he wrote from notes his father had gathered, tells the story of Eric Anderson and his family. The Anderson cabin, which is now 140 years old, stands outside the Surrey Museum. That book is the best account I have read of the tribulations, day-to-day life and joys of the early settlers in Surrey. The Surrey fire department of today would not exist without Lorne’s hard work and many years of dedication. His efforts in provincial associations also helped fire departments in many other communities. This devotion to Surrey, a city that he called home for most of his 77 years, was outstanding. That’s why Surrey council named him a “civic treasure” a couple of years ago, and it’s why there is a big hole in this city because of his passing. I’d like to thank Lorne’s wife, Irene, and sons, John and Jim, for sharing so much of him with the rest of us. Our city is a better place for it.

HST ‘a liability’ for Liberals from page 1 such a petition) and that will be followed, I’m sure,” she said. Hogg, long a critic of the way the HST was announced by the B.C. Liberals, said he believes the petition will be submitted to a committee of the legislature “charged with reaching some recommendations.” “Given public opinion, and given the number of people who signed the petition, they’re going to have to, at some point, bring it before the elected representatives or submit it to a referendum,” he said. Hogg said that while the committee has a responsibility to deal with the legal process, it can’t ignore the “court of public opinion” and the number of people who have expressed their concerns. “We can’t be closing people’s mouths using the veil of the legal process or the specifics of it.” Kevin Falcon (Surrey-Cloverdale) is on vacation and couldn’t be reached for comment. He previously stated while the Liberals “could not have done a worse job in rolling it out and
explaining it” he believes the HST was “absolutely the right thing to do.” Cadieux declined to give an opinion on the challenge to the petition raised by the coalition, made up of the Council of Forest Industries, the Mining Association of B.C., the Coast Forest Products Association and the B.C. Chamber of Commerce. “I can’t comment on that, because it’s not my challenge,” she said. “I understand we’ll hear the result of the findings soon – I guess I’m hopeful we will.” Cadieux said it’s clear the way the HST was introduced has become a liability for Liberal MLAs like herself. “We’ve all stated that the communication could have been handled better,” she said. “But it was all done with the best of intentions for the province and the well-being of the people of this province. “It’s been an interesting first year in office for myself and a few others. But that’s politics – that’s what we signed up for. We’re there for the people – when they’re happy with us and when they’re not happy with us.”

Economy keeps them busy from page 1 company is handling this month. A tough economy has meant brisk business for companies like Marvel. “There’s been a lot more companies going under. We’ve always done pretty well. It’s picking up because of the economy.” Not everyone is appreciative of the auctioneers, Martin said, noting death threats are not unheard of. “Not many people like to walk away
from their life support, their meal on the table, their business that they put years of work building.” One upside, he said, is the opportunity such auctions provide for new or struggling businesses to find good deals on equipment and the like. As an example, Martin said, the restaurateur who bought the chest freezer Tuesday was spared the burden of financing the expense. He paid for the freezer with money out of his pocket.

editorial
Voice of reason could be at risk remier Gordon Campbell could have used the counsel – not to mention political savvy – of a few more MLAs like Gordon Hogg before the disastrous roll-out of the HST last year. It’s ironic the Fight HST forces, earlier this year, should have placed Hogg on its hit list of potential targets for a proposed campaign to recall Liberal MLAs. Because the former minister – passed over for a cabinet post both before and after the last election – has been nothing if not consistent in his view since last year that the HST announcement was a botched job. And now he is one of the most outspoken of MLAs in delivering his view that the government will ignore a groundswell of public opinion – as represented by the HST petition – at its peril. Peninsula residents will recognize that Hogg, whether they agree or disagree with him, is more of a diplomat – and political survivor – than many of his colleagues, including Campbell himself. And Hogg recognizes it would be unwise to use the legal technicalities as a reason for not listening to the people. The veteran politician has done a lot of listening over the years. He seems to pride himself on lines of communication with his constituents, which, while sometimes heated, are seldom severed. He’s proud, too, of the constituents who’ve told him that while they may be vehement opponents of the HST, they will not consider signing a petition to recall Hogg himself. But the Surrey-White Rock MLA recognizes others will, and he praises them for showing an engagement in social and political processes. Over years as a White Rock council member and mayor, and subsequent service as MLA, Hogg has distinguished himself as a voice of reason and an ear of compassion. It’s possible that these very qualities that make local residents value him as an MLA are qualities that have hampered his career in Victoria. He is poor casting as a hard-nosed hitman, which has surely limited his chances to take on the more controversial portfolios. He has also shown an unwillingness to blindly espouse a party line, which must reduce his chances of maintaining a place among Campbell’s elite. But Hogg knows being popular at home is more important than being popular in Victoria. His willingness to talk and listen might even mean he’ll be around long after Campbell, and others of his ilk, have ridden off into the sunset.

listening to your standard street busker banging away on an old battered guitar, yowling out another tone-deaf version of Me and Bobby McGee. In fact, you have to wonder how long someone would get away with that scare gig on a Vancouver city street. Probably be arrested within an hour. It did remind me, though, of a panhandler in Surrey who had figured out that some people would offload their change for diddly in return. This guy would stand outside a liquor store with his six-string, and tune it. That’s pretty much all he did – fuss with the tuning ... and watch the coins go into his beret on the sidewalk. Remarkable. So, I suppose San Francisco hasn’t got a lock on being known as a city of tolerance. However, it’s definitely among the friendliest places I’ve been. Like the waitress at the Hard Rock Cafe, who bopped over, plunked herself down on a seat at our table, and before taking our order, just yakked away as if we were old chums. At first, my daughter and I stared at her like she had snakes growing out of her hair. But, soon enough, even this crusty Canuck had to thaw to her effervescent spirit. In fact, virtually everyone who served, drove or otherwise helped us through several days of visit were equally engaging. From Anna and I, thanks ’Frisco, it was a real treat.

School safety worth the effort Editor: Re: It’s a question of timing, Aug. 6. I would like to echo recent letter-writer Derek Lowe about his concerns about traffic safety at Chantrell Creek Elementary. Many complaints have been made to the municipality about traffic concerns, but as yet nothing has been implemented. Back in December 2004, 137 Street was marked for curb extension at 25A and 26 Avenues – but has yet to be installed. Why not? Is it not possible to reengineer the roads around every school in Surrey to make it safer for children to walk to school? Speed humps at the crosswalks, speed bumps in front of the school, sidewalks and bylaw officers coming around regularly… I’m sure all parents in Surrey would welcome the improvements. Parents must do their part, as well. Walk to school if you live close. Your child will not melt in the rain. Pay attention to the road, especially at intersections. Look for little ones crossing the road. Drive the speed limit. Be alert. Sue Pontifex, Surrey

as we can not get the required Labour Market Opinion. We have good intentions. We both work, pay our taxes and have not broken the law here. We have forms submitted to the government under the Canadian Experience Class and just need another 10-month visa. We have paid $1,550 for our Canadian Experience Class, and have had to pay another $550 for our extension, which we have been told will be refused. Where do we go from here? Tamil immigrants are allowed to continue living their lives in Canada until Immigration decides on their status. But what about us? Immigration Canada is destroying a family’s life. The Canadian people need to know what’s going on. We are not going to let this go. We are hoping that you will agree that this is wrong. Denise and Mark Hickman, Surrey

Branding word for the wise Editor: Re: Branding of White Rock back on table, June 9. Is White Rock really a city in need of re-branding itself? It seems it is already a city that has an exceptional brand, namely “White Rock”. It also has its own natural white rock – with the aid of some white paint. The name is well known across Canada and, for that matter, in many parts of the U.S.A. Locally, the City of Surrey that surrounds our city seems to be rather envious of our brand. Several of the businesses are labelled “White Rock… (whatever)” and the residents, when asked, claim they live in White Rock. If those at city hall are intent on re-inventing the wheel, perhaps they should consider the “KISS” principle. Our new branding steering committee should ask itself what, in the main, makes White Rock what it is. Hopefully, all would agree the main factor is the waterfront. People flock to the waterfront in good weather, not so much in rainy times. Waterfront activity spurs our economy and provides measurably needed dollars to our municipal coffers. So how is the wheel to be re-invented? I suggest one word is sufficient. Officially change the name of our city to: “White Rock Beach” or “White Rock Shores.” From our new official brand, perhaps our leaders at city hall will recognize the beach is in need of waterfront development to promote the city into the 21st century.

One of two boats were ordered destroyed by City of Surrey staff after Ocean Park acreage was deemed “unsightly.”
Property owners have legal rights Editor: Re: Two boats destroyed in seizure, Aug. 13. I have owned my property since 1986. It is under RA (residential acreage) density, which legally allows parking of two cars or trucks, plus house trailers, campers or boats – not to exceed three – for a combined total of five. I paid $6,000 in property taxes last year, and I have a legal right to park what was on my property. Countless properties in Surrey do not have this density but have even more vehicles parked there. My property and my son’s boats – from his late father – were not seized. They were destroyed. To my horror, I have been told that because of the word “seizure,” people might incorrectly read this to be a criminal matter. I have filed a complaint with both the city’s bylaw department and Mayor Dianne Watts’ office, and I am waiting to hear how they will rectify the damage and embarrassment their staff has caused me. I passed final approval to subdivide this property into three lots, and the City of Surrey has been paid all deposits to a total of $380,000. The bylaw officer was fully aware I had ordered bins and was in the process of doing the servicing. As part of the subdivision, I am ordered to install two lamp posts for BC hydro and an ultimate bus stop for Coast Mountain. We took over 100 pictures of the destruction on Aug. 11, and these pictures were also part of the complaint
that I registered. When I returned from city hall Aug. 13, I had a voice mail from an evicted roommate that stated: “all my phone calls to the bylaw department finally paid off, and I laughed my head off to see your property destroyed.” She only lived here one month. This message is saved and will be admitted in court, if it comes to that. Thank you for reading my story. We are preparing to put all the pictures on YouTube. Lois Wickert, Surrey
Target others, too What has taken the City of Surrey this long? When we moved to the Peninsula 23 years ago, I considered this property unsightly, which is almost a compliment the way this lot looked over the years. Let’s hope the city will target a few more “work in progress” lots in similar condition. Bylaw department, congratulations for a job well done. Ernie Brauer, Surrey Q Hooray! Somebody with guts for a change. Good for the civic official who finally took the decision to act. Perhaps more actions will be taken in other similar cases. I certainly want this to happen! Don’t we all? Ivan Scott, Surrey

news Charges have been recommended against two White Rock men in connection with an Aug. 6 police incident in the 14900-block of Buena Vista Avenue. Police executing a search warrant on the home that morning seized approximately 350 marijuana plants, said Sgt. Paul Fletcher. A passerby told Peace Arch News police and bylaw officers surrounded the property around 8 a.m. The bylaw officers were wearing respiratory masks, and one man was seen lying on the ground with a police officer standing over him, the witness said. Police also had a battering ram, the witness said. Fletcher could not confirm the witness’ reports. He would not say what led police to the home, only that it was “as a result of information received.” Police believe one or both of the men facing charges – production of a controlled substance and theft of hydro – were living at the property in question.The men are due in court in late October.

White Rock explores adding electric vehicles to city fleet
Testing green machines Alex Browne Staff Reporter
White Rock is considering purchase of two electric vehicles for the city’s operations department. White Rock Mayor Catherine Ferguson and engineering and municipal operations director Rob Thompson had a chance to test a truck distributed by Electric Car B.C. earlier this month.
“It handled really well,” said Ferguson, who noted the city is going to be “looking at a couple of different vehicles from different manufacturers and suppliers” before making a decision. “We’re also looking at an electric people-mover, which holds up to six people, for crews going around doing maintenance work.” Ferguson said adding electric
vehicles to the city fleet is a “green” initiative that stands to save the city in operating costs, as well as reducing emissions. While Ferguson noted the top speed of such vehicles is around 40 km/h, there “isn’t always a need to put a big truck on the road for going around the corner for waterfront or parks maintenance.” Whistler has already embraced see page 10

Costs for the vehicles range from “somewhere under $20,000 to pushing $30,000” he said.

s “the little tip jar that could” nears $2,000, Roadhouse Bake Shoppe manager Lise Alexander gets closer to parting with her golden locks. The White Rock resident has pledged to shave her head in honour of her best friend’s 13-year-old daughter, Angelica Culley – who was diagnosed with leukemia in June – if the store can reach the fundraising goal. Alexander said her 12 staff members decided to donate their tips to the Culley family to help offset medical costs. “We put up a sign and the next thing I know, we had almost $300,” Alexander said. “It was really encouraging. We never get that much tip money.” To give the collection effort a boost, Alexander vowed to shave her head in store once the tip jar reaches $2,000. With the total already past the halfway mark, Alexander suspects she doesn’t have much longer to wait. “I am a little bit nervous,” she admitted. But she only has to look to Angelica for motivation, as the young teen began losing her hair due to chemotherapy treatments in the middle of July. Loved ones immediately rallied around her, with her mom, siblings, aunts, grandparents and friends shaving their heads, too. When it comes time for Alexander to follow suit, she hopes Angelica will visit the bakery and do the honours. If Angelica is unwell, however, Alexander may do it over Skype,

Having to drive to BC Children’s Hospital from their Langley home at least four times a week and shop at local stores rather than wholesale outlets due to a lack of time has put a dent in their gas and grocery bills. “There’s a ton of little tiny expenses that have been added on that our budget wasn’t ready for,” Jon Culley said. “It wasn’t until I sat back and looked at the first month (that I) realized how costly it is to get cancer.” Angelica’s medications have also come at a significant cost. “They’re just feeling the strain. It would just be nice to ease their financial pressure,” Alexander said. “The last thing you need to worry about is how you’re going to get to the hospital because you don’t have enough money for gas.” So far, the bakery’s tip jar has helped pay for the installation of vacuum and water-filtration systems in Angelica’s home, as
she is sensitive to dust and unable to drink regular tap water. The rest of the money raised will help support the family’s day-to-day expenses. “I’m overwhelmed with the generosity of people and the support of our friends and the support of people we’ve never even met,” Culley said. “I’m speechless.” Alexander said the cause has received a positive response from the community and beyond, with her friend’s daughter selling daisies outside her house to raise funds, and Alexander’s sister’s children collecting bottles in Ontario. “It’s just amazing how widespread the compassion reaches,” she said. “I love how this all brings people together. I know it’s really touched Angelica.” To donate, visit the store, 1763 King George Blvd., or email lise@ roadhousebakeshoppe.com

Treasure hunt winners were awarded prizes over the summer for finding missing hard hats around town.
Shopping centre’s marketing campaign catches industry’s attention P U B L I C N OT I C E
Missing hard hats found Winners of Semiahmoo Shopping Centre’s community-wide treasure hunt gathered this week to receive the small yellow hard hats they found around the Peninsula. Every week from April 5 to July 11, a hat was hidden in the community and clues to its whereabouts were released inside stores at the shopping centre, on its website, in the Peace Arch News and on Facebook and Twitter. The campaign saw 15 win-
ners, who turned in their hats to receive prizes that ranged in value from $100-$500. On Aug. 16, the hats were returned to their finders, along with commemorative “I Found a Missing Hard Hat” T-shirts. The campaign was held in conjunction with Semiahmoo Shopping Centre’s renovations, which are finishing up inside the building, according to marketing director Jeri Cox. “It was as much fun for the
shopping centre as it was for the customers to participate,” she said. The promotion was featured in Marketing Trendz, a monthly newsletter for marketing directors of shopping centres, as well as Marketing and Tactics magazines. “I think it was just innovative and different and it caught a lot of marketing people’s attention,” Cox said. - Hannah Sutherland

Membership benefits endless
W
ith summer winding down, it is renewal time for your seniors’ membership – or the perfect time to purchase a seniors’ membership – at the South Surrey Recreation Centre. Memberships are valid from Sept. 1 to Aug. 31 and are at a great value for $20.50. There are so many benefits to becoming a member. South Surrey Recreation Centre members will receive the seniors’ discount rate on a variety of registered programs, bus trips and volunteer led drop-in programs – just look for the 55+ in our leisure guide or on the drop-in schedules. You will make new friends or connect again with old friends; you will have the opportunity to learn a new skill or sport; and you will have the opportunity to volunteer at the centre. Q Our senior drop-in programs did not slow down during the summer months. Duplicate Bridge meets twice a week, on Monday and Thursdays, and the attendance has been consistent. The bridge schedule will remain the same for our fall session, which starts in September. Thursday is the informal day when players share their knowledge with each other so it is the perfect opportunity for bridge players to learn duplicate. If you already play duplicate, you and your partner can play on Mondays on a first come, first serve basis for a $2 member fee. Games generally start at 9:30-10 a.m. and players arrive early to get their tables. So if you are a bridge enthusiast, this is another good reason to purchase a senior membership. Q Other senior drop-in programs – such as pickleball and badminton – have continued to bring in new members during the summer months. The social connections made by these players were celebrated with summer barbecues and picnics and both groups always welcome new members. New classes to learn pickleball or badminton start again in September, so check

What’s wrong with that idea?” To keep the concept fresh in people’s minds, Macdougall created an “edit card” – using an adhesive label that can be stuck on other expired cards – that is visible every time a wallet is opened to make a purchase. “It’s just a little reminder that maybe savings would be a lot more attractive on you than another little geegaw.” With more savings and less debt, people are more capable and better prepared to care for themselves, she said. “Debt is a social injustice. It means, I’m not going to be responsible for myself, you are. It’s passing the buck in a very serious way. Thrift speaks of character and responsibility.” Finding new uses for old things is “an opportunity to be one in a million, not one of a million,” Macdougall said, and it’s everyone’s responsibility to contribute to sustainability. “If you are not part of the solution, you are the problem.”

A 20 Peace Arch News Friday, August 20, 2010 L G news rosemary heights AL dental centre Free passes called too generous
TransLink under fire Jeff Nagel Black Press
Ex-bus drivers and other former TransLink staff with as little as two years service enjoy free transit passes as a retirement bonus. The arrangement, details of which were disclosed this week, is under fire from critics who say it’s too generous. More than 10,000 such free passes exist for current and retired employees and some of their family members. Employees with at least two years service who retire from TransLink, Coast Mountain Bus Co. or the Transit Police (they must not simply quit to go work elsewhere) get a lifetime pass and can get a family pass for their spouse as well. SkyTrain and West Coast Express workers are eligible for retiree passes after working five years. Current staff also get passes. TransLink spokesman Ken Hardie said the free passes were negotiated as part of the compensation package in union contracts years ago, back when BC Transit ran the local transit system. “It doesn’t cost TransLink anything to issue these passes,” he said, suggesting TransLink would end up reimbursing employees for company travel if they paid cash for tickets.
“We’re trying to promote sustainable travel options for people,” Hardie added. “So extending it to non-work related trips is a pretty sustainable move – those are cars that are not on the road.” But Canadian Taxpayers Federation spokesperson Maureen Bader argues cashstrapped TransLink might recoup millions of dollars a year if staff and retirees had to pay their own way. “That’s just out of line,” she said of the free passes. “We’ve got TransLink employees taking a free ride on the backs of tax-paying, hard working families.” Other employers partly subsidize transit passes to encourage their workers not to drive and clog parking lots, Bader said, but added there’s no reason TransLink should provide them completely free. She called it evidence of TransLink’s “misplaced priorities” and said the transportation authority seems unwilling to look hard for places to cut costs when it can simply raise taxes and fares. TransLink has for the past two years been on a cost-cutting campaign that included a significant number of layoffs, restructuring of the senior executive and elimination of several vice-presidents.

Bringing Vision to Lif
Spectrum Optometry In addition to a new fall wardrobe, pencils and binders, parents are being urged to include an eye exam on their child’s back to school list. The Canadian Association of Optometrists reports that 25 per cent of grade school children have vision problems that stop them from being as successful as they could be. Also, 60 per cent of children identified as slow learners, or learning disabled, have vision problems they aren’t aware of. The team at Spectrum Optometry in Peninsula Village can Dr. Stephanie Gautier help your child reach their maximum education potential. With an emphasis on attention to personal care, the doctors and staff Dr. Michelle Elliott at this full-service eye care clinic strive to find custom solutions specifically targeted towards each patient’s individual needs, whether they are a young child entering kindergarten or a senior. Services provided at Spectrum Optometry include comprehensive eye examinations (including screening for glaucoma, cataracts, diabetes and various eye diseases), contact lens services and spectacle (eyeglasses) dispensing. The opticians can also provide routine frame adjustment and minor repairs if necessary. When it comes to a child’s vision, most problems go undetected, according to Dr. Michelle Elliott of Spectrum Optometry. This can lead to many problems down the road. To help families focus on preventative care, Spectrum Optometry does not charge for children’s exams or retinal photos if they have BC Medical Services Plan coverage. “Children generally do not report symptoms of poor vision as they have no way of knowing what clear vision should be like,” says Dr. Elliott, who has been the primary optometrist at Spectrum Optometry since taking over ownership of the clinic back in 2002. “If a child is very farsighted (hyperopic) they will find near work such as reading and colouring to be very difficult and tiring. A child who is nearsighted (myopic) may not be able to see the blackboard at school. Eyeglasses can be used to correct these vision problems.” There are also conditions that may prevent a child from seeing clearly out of one eye – yet they’ll have no symptoms of poor vision because the other eye sees clearly. When this situation is allowed to persist the visual connections between the unused eye and the brain do not develop properly and cannot be restored later with eyeglasses, explains Dr. Elliott. “This condition, called amblyopia, can only be treated at a young age.” Children with 20/20 vision see well in the distance, however, Dr. Elliott notes they may have difficulties aligning their eyes to see single, clear images when reading. Binocular vision problems may result in losing one’s place when reading, reading words out of order, eyestrain or blur when changing focus between a blackboard and a book. “These vision problems result in the child concentrating more on trying to see the information presented, rather than processing and learning the information,” she says. “At Spectrum Optometry we can also test for colour vision deficiencies which are more common in boys than girls.” Good vision is fundamental to reading and learning. A full eye health examination at Spectrum Optometry can identify and treat vision problems, allowing your child a better chance to perform to his or her fullest potential as a student. Call today so the team can help your child have a successful start this upcoming school year and a bright future.
Serving the community since 1999
One Test Your Child Can’t Afford To Miss Because a child's vision may change frequently, regular eye and vision care is crucial to a student's classroom success. 60% of children labeled as "problem learners" may actually have undetected vision problems and are sometimes incorrectly diagnosed as having attention-deficit disorder. At Spectrum Optometry children’s eye exams are covered by the BC Medical Service Plan.

Disappointed with your Thermage treatment?... Then try the TITAN!
If cellulite, stretch marks and other visible signs of aging have you worried, the team at Institute New Beauty can help. Focusing on all aspects of body and skin care, the state-of-the-art centre has built a reputation for producing amazing results, in a comfortable and caring atmosphere. Dr. Bernice Brits, the centre’s medical director, continues to offer Botox and fillers regularly, adding to the centre’s amazing range of services and procedures. If you’re a little hesitant to have Botox or fillers done, the Fibropen System is a great option. This safe,effective device uses radiofrequency technology Caree Ludwar directly inside wrinkles, causing fibroblasts stimulation, filling and revitalizing the area of concern. A newcomer in the laser skin resurfacing field – the Titan skin-tightening procedure is commonly referred to as a non-surgical face lift. The Titan Laser works in two ways: It uses an infrared-light instrument to stimulate and restore collagen. First, it causes the weaker collagen to instantly tighten and solidify. Then in the following months, it triggers the skin to produce new collagen. With the Titan procedure, some results may be seen instantly without any of the regular facelift pain or bruising. Plus the skin keeps improving due to its collagen stimulation so the effects are apparent months later. There are many areas the Titan procedure can be used to combat wrinkles or sagging. Most commonly treated areas are the forehead, cheeks, jowl, and neck. But it also works on the stomach, thighs, and arms. Even previously extremely difficult parts to treat such as elbows and knees now benefit where older methods simply failed to effectively work. It is also an excellent way to tighten up and give a youthful appearance to the abdomen after childbirth. With eyes and neck requiring three sessions Caree is pleased to offer 50 per cent off the third session. To battle unsightly sun spots, fine lines and wrinkles, Caree recommends the Pearl procedure, by Cutera. This safe, non-invasive procedure, which recently appeared on the hit show The Doctors, has been showing remarkable results since it was introduced at the centre. Few patients require multiple treatments. One of Institute New Beauty’s signature treatments, Condessa, has become one of the most sought-after and effective slimming treatments on the Peninsula. Using low frequency ultrasound technology, the machine allows a pre-determined amount of energy to be focused onto fatty tissue. As the waves converge and accumulate, the cellular membranes are broken down and the inter-cellular fluids are released and naturally metabolized. The Proellixe whole body vibration machine is another popular tool for building muscle and tone – and Institute New Beauty is back to four machines in their larger premises. Right now, you can experience this amazing body remodelling and reshaping machine – which also enhances bone density – for just $49 per month. With fall just around the corner, New Beauty Institute is offering an incredible facial special for just $48. Regularly priced at $109, this treatment, specially designed for mature skin or normal skin that needs a boost, uses the world-renowned PRIORI skin care products. If you’ve been looking for ways to look and feel your best, visit Institute New Beauty in White Rock for a free consultation, and see what a difference some care, pampering and revolutionary technology can make.
Dramatic effect for saggy skin, ideal for turkey neck. Rev up your collagen and elastin production!

Get ready for fall and save!
Fountain Tire With fall just around the corner, drivers are being urged to make sure their tires are ready for the upcoming season. By having a good set of tires under your car, you’ll have a safer, more reliable trip and peace of mind every time you’re on the road, despite the weather conditions. For more than 19 years, Fountain Tire on 2546 King George Blvd., has been helping customers enjoy maximum performance and security with its selection of top-of-theline tires for cars, trucks, minivans, SUVs and CUVs. Drew Campbell In addition to being a designated Air Care & Commercial Vehicle Inspection Facility, Fountain Tire offers complete automotive services, including car repair, truck repairs, and vehicle maintenance, as well as important tips to help you care for and maintain your investment. “We perform vehicle inspections, full repairs, and preventative maintenance services using top-of-the-line diagnostic equipment and tools,� says Fountain Tire Manager Drew Campbell who took over the Peninsula location back in 2008 with his wife Liz. “High-quality products such as NAPA auto parts and Quaker State motor oils are also used to ensure the best possible maintenance of your vehicle.� Fountain Tire is also known for its top of the line tire changer, which Drew says is the “best in the industry.� “Nobody else on the Peninsula has this tire changer, so it’s proven pretty popular,� he says of the machinery worth $25,000. “A lot of rims can scratch very easily when you’re changing a tire, but not with this Italian model. It doesn’t even touch the rim at all.� Just in time for fall, Fountain Tire is offering a special promotion to help prepare your vehicle for the changes in temperature and driving conditions, which prevents costly breakdown repairs (a savings of $10). The store is also offering 50 per cent off their 4-Wheel Alignment Special. Exclusive to Fountain Tire customers is its Air Miles program. Earn reward miles on tires, custom wheels, and mechanical service purchases. Commercial truck tires, farm tires, and retread purchases are also eligible for reward miles. Fountain Tire also takes all common lease maintenance cards such as GE Fleet, PHH, ARI, Foss Fleet – just to name a few. Giving back to the local community is high on the priority list for the Campbells, who work, live and play on the Peninsula. South Surrey Fountain Tire has donated 800 free oil changes to support local high school football programs. Fountain Tire was established back in 1956 in Wainwright, Alberta, by Bill Fountain, combining key factors such as experienced owners, licensed automotive technicians, and quality products to form a company driven to serve. Today, it has over 140 stores spanning as far west as Victoria and as far east as Thunder Bay, Ont. When you require outstanding service and quality tires, trust the team at Fountain Tire.

Checkpoint Plumbing With a commitment to customer satisfaction and nearly 100 years of combined industry experience, Check Point Plumbing is proud to offer topnotch, knowledgeable service you can count on. Whether it’s a clogged sink, Beth, Dave, Rich & Kent a leaky hot water tank or a gas fireplace on the fritz, the team at Check Point Plumbing will get the job done quickly and accurately, according to co-owner Beth Henderson. “We do the job right the first time and ensure that the customer is satisfied,” Henderson said. “We’re very proud of the work we do.” With winter in full swing, this is the time of year many homeowners think about replacing their old, inefficient furnace with a newer and more efficient model. In some respects, today’s high-efficiency furnaces, which generally start around $4,000, are better engineered than the $30,000 car you drive off the lot. With up to 95 per cent efficiency, more heat goes into your home than up the chimney with older models. Redesigned heat exchangers – complete with recovery coils – better insulation with state-of-the-art controls and energy-efficient blower motors, some with four speeds and quiet as a whisper, all provide long-lasting comfort. High and low-fire gas valves combined with variable speed blowers provide the perfect amount of heat required – for warmer days, the gas valve fires on low mode and the blower cuts in on low speed; for cold days, both the gas valve and the blower operate on high to bring your home up to a set temperature, where it will stay comfortably. Also important is a good digital thermostat to replace the old mechanical style you may still have. The friendly folks at Check Point Plumbing would be more than happy to visit your home to check out your existing unit and make some recommendations. Don’t forget, federal EcoEnergy grants are still available as an incentive to make your home more energy efficient – call Check Point today to find out more about this program and all other services they provide. With an emphasis on providing great customer service and competitive pricing, Check Point Plumbing is your best choice for all your plumbing, heating and gas fitting needs.

Pantry Restaurant Breakfast • Lunch • Dinner For over 27 years, The Pantry has been serving the Peninsula with a dedication to Guest service and healthy, hand-crafted entrees. While the popular family casual dining restaurant, located at 1812 152 St., may be well known for its comfort classics like home-baked meatloaf, 100 per cent Certified Angus Beef Burgers, or their signature Sunshine Chicken Salad, new changes and menu Margaret Conrad items have recently been introduced. After years of doing the same thing, the same way, it was time for a change. Not to change for change sake. Change for the better, according to Margaret Conrad, general manager of the White Rock Pantry. “We started by talking to You, the Guest. We had a hunch there was an untended need out there,” she says. “A need for a place that catered specifically to families – to their hectic schedules – to their expectations of quality and nutrition – to their budget responsibilities.” “Every day of the week we have a feature promotion and have also introduced a full bar, local wines and tasty cocktails – a perfect pairing to our delicious entrees and appetizers.” For busy moms on the go, The Pantry is the perfect place to sit back, relax and chat with family and friends. With a diverse menu, full of healthy entrees, you’ll be certain to find something that will be tantalizing to your taste buds. Having a work function or team celebration? The Pantry has a private room that seats 50 with a catered menu. And what’s the hottest item on the menu? Margaret says there are several favourites, but Fish & Chips seems to rank at the top of their list. “You don’t have to trek down to the beach for delicious Fish & Chips,” she says matter-of-factly. “You also don’t have to pay for parking.” The Pantry has also introduced a variety of succulent salads and tasty soups that are always “just right” for lunch or a light dinner and recently began giving out a free veggie plate to every Guest who orders an entree. The Pantry is proud to sponsor the Vancouver Whitecaps FC. Both The Pantry Restaurant and the Whitecaps FC have been a part of B.C. history since the 1970’s. Whether you are a soccer mom or dad, be sure to bring your hungry “team” to eat at The Pantry and score big with your fans. “We look forward to seeing you soon,” says Margaret.

Anna Kristina Boutique
New Fall Fashions Arriving!
It’s been a whirlwind of a year for Anna Kristina who opened her boutique last August inside the Semiahmoo Shopping Centre. Despite being the new face of fashion on the Peninsula, Anna Kristina Boutique has proved popular with trend-setting women from all over the White Rock/South Surrey area and beyond.
One of a kind jewellery designs created by Anna Kristina
“Wow, what a year it has been!” says Anna of the Anna Kristina Boutique, which had previously been located in Richmond Centre for nine years. “We have received so much support and have been made to feel very welcome here. This is truly a great community that knows its fashion... It was a really smart move.”

Anna Kristina
Helping women look and feel their best is one of the things that has kept Anna in the industry for more than three decades, and you can be sure to receive personal and friendly service when you visit her boutique. Anna Kristina Boutique offers well-known Canadian and European design collections that range in sizes from two to 20. With September just around the corner, Anna says there are plenty of new pieces to fall for. “Fashion for fall is exciting, fresh and easy to wear,” she reveals. “We’ll be seeing lots of zippers, crystals and leather detailing on everything.” In addition to basic black, which is always a classic colour, Anna says purples, greys, greens and camel hues are rocking the runways and her clothing racks.
• SHOES • ACCESSORIES • UNIQUE GIFTS AND MORE! Sizes 4-18
And what’s the biggest must have this season? Jeggings, she says. “They are very comfortable and super stretchy. But we’re also seeing a comeback in the flare and fun extras like zippers, pockets and more pockets!” Another important wardrobe staple this fall is the crew neck sweater in fine wool or, even better– cashmere. “It’s super soft and comfortable and it will last forever,” says Anna matter-of-factly. This season is more feminine and sexy than usual, which means a resurgence of flowing skirts and dresses, which you will find no shortage of at Anna Kristina Boutique. And, if you are looking to channel your inner Carrie Bradshaw, check out Anna Kristina’s selection of designer shoes to go with that perfect dress or any outfit. Anna also carries a huge selection of jewelry, including one-of-a-kind hand-crafted pieces designed and created by Anna herself, a wide range of gemstones, pearls, gold and silver. This fall, Anna says when it comes to necklaces, the more strands the merrier. “Pearls are back in a big way, and lots of them. Also multiple strands of chains with stones, pearls, in gold and sliver.The gothic look is also hitting the runways with crosses and skeletons in all different shapes and sizes.” For the past year, Anna has been busy working steadily on her new fall jewelry line, which she promises will be “absolutely gorgeous!” California-based and well known artist Judy Jensen joins Anna in November for her annual jewelry show. Anna invites fashionistas of all ages to attend. “It will be fabulous – a must see!” Visit Anna Kristina Boutique in the Semiahmoo Shopping Centre for sophisticated, funky fashion and friendly, knowledgeable service.

The local couple are encouraging homeowners to take advantage of the savings by moving forward with any major upgrades to their home this fall. “There really isn’t a better time,” says Eva also pointing out that Kokopelli is currently offering 35 per cent off of all cabinets. Working directly with wholesalers rather than retailers means Kokopelli can help you save big bucks. “It really helps when you take away the middleman,” says Eva matter-of-factly. “Also, since we are no longer operating out of a storefront we don’t have to pay the overhead... that makes a world of difference!” When it comes to home renovations, Eva warns homeowners to avoid taking the lowest bid from contractors as it can often lead to unexpected costs down the road. “The biggest mistake a homeowner can make is going with the lowest quote and not getting all the information about the company or the materials being used. Many times they’ll end up paying as much as twice as the original quote when all is said and done. Often times we’re called to fix a poor renovation which has been done with cheap materials and sloppy installation.” Clients of Kokopelli can rest assured they are getting only the finest, high-quality materials and products for their home renovation. “Our clients find that for pricing we are right at the middle mark, but that’s because everything we use is only the best, durable quality. We use all European components with our cabinets. There are no hidden costs with us.” They can also take comfort in knowing their biggest investment is in capable, experienced hands. “We treat every project as though we are renovating our own house,” says Eva.” We don’t ever want anyone to just like what we’ve done... We want them to love it. For them to be happy and feel great after we leave is the most rewarding part of our job.”

Flamenco – the fiery dance and music form of southern Spain – has had a firm foothold on the Peninsula for almost a decade, thanks to Jill Tunbridge’s thriving Flamenco del Mar Spanish Dance Studio. The evidence will be on display once again – over two evenings – in the ninth annual Flamenco del Mar Festival, Sept. 3 and 4 at

True to Tunbridge’s approach, while the show will feature the performance of her own talented dance students – among them South Surrey’s Helen Fehrenberg and Langley’s Karla Woode – she will showcase them side by side with notables of the Canadian and international, flamenco scene. And Tunbridge always delights in throwing the unexpected into the mix – including, this year, guest vocalist Leanne Coleman,
known more for her work in blues singing. But Tunbridge said she finds her invitees add excitement to the festival, while blending the technique and experience of seasoned performers with the enthusiasm of her students helps create a powerful celebratory experience in which everyone is carried along in the sheer momentum of the form. Two of this year’s guest
performers qualify as Flamenco del Mar regulars, Spanish-born guitarist Juan Carreras (Juan de Marias) and Venezuelan-born cantaora (flamenco singer) Jafelin Heltin. The third is Denise Canso, born in Manila in the Phillippines, but raised in St. Catherines, Ont. Canso, a skilled athlete, fell in love with flamenco while working on her graduate thesis in see page 37

‘An eye-opening experience’ 50% OFF from page 35 public health care and epidemiology at UBC. “I was always athletic, growing up, but artistic at the same time,” she said. “I was exposed to sports and arts but never a mix of the two. But when I found flamenco, I finally found something in which I could express musicality, art, physicality, choreography and musical composition. “It offers something for everyone, regardless of age, or how you look, or how you move. It’s very accessible and inclusive and that’s what drew me to it.” Taking a break from academics, she recently spent a year and a half in Andalusia experiencing the flamenco culture of Spain firsthand. And she agrees with Tunbridge that, no matter how much exposure you’ve had to flamenco elsewhere, studying in Spain is “like starting over.” “I was dancing six to eight hours every day,” Canso said. ‘One thing I learned was patience. The message that got driven home to me there, was that it takes a lot of work and repetition. “It was very different – very eye-opening. I went in with no expectations and it blew me away with dimensions both inside flamenco and outside flamenco. I’d lived in Spain before, but before being involved in flamenco, so it was like going in with different eyes.” It’s often been observed that, in Spain,

Football squad to play against U.S. teams during 10-day trip
Mariners set course for Alaskan tour Nick Greenizan
S
Sports Reporter
ince their inaugural season in 2005, the Earl Marriott Mariners football team has travelled plenty, from Vancouver Island to the Okanagan, and even into high school football-mad Washington, where they played under the lights in front of thousands of fans last year. But later this month, the school’s senior team embarks on its longest journey yet – to Alaska. The Mariners leave on their 10-day odyssey Aug. 25; first they’ll bus to Seattle, where they’ll then fly to Sitka, Ala. After a few days in Sitka – where they’ll stay with host families and take on the Sitka Wolves on the gridiron – the Peninsula team will travel by boat, through Alaska’s inside passage, to Ketchikan, where they’ll continue their stay and play one more game against the local high school. Mariners head coach ❝We’re going Michael MacKay-Dunn was looking forward to to really having his team together immerse ourselves in early in the season, with hopes that it will the town, and the propel them to some try to meet a early-season success lot of people.❞ once the season begins Michael MacKay- in the fall. “It’s 10 days on the Dunn Mariners coach road and that’s a great way for all the guys to bond together, especially at the start of the season,” said the coach, whose team finished a disappointing 1-4 last season at the AAA varsity level. “It’s going to be a really good experience for the guys. It might seem odd that football would be so big in a place like Alaska, but it is still the United States, after all – and football is the big thing there.” But as excited as he is to see his team hit the field – including the game in Ketchikan, which will be played under the lights in front of what’s expected to be a large crowd – MacKay-Dunn said the trip was about more than just a couple of football games. The team will still practise every day during the trip, but players and coaches will also have the opportunity to go fishing and ziplining, and will also spend time learning some history of the area and its people. “It’s not a holiday – we’ll be practising and working hard, but there will be fun stuff,

The places we’re going, they’re remote, they’re fairly isolated – right on the edge of the wilderness. “We don’t want to look at this trip like we’re just hopping off an Alaskan cruise ship, wandering around for a few hours, and then we’re gone again. We’re going to be living (in each town) for four or five
days and we’re going to really immerse ourselves in the town, and try to meet a lot of people.” Though he just recently returned for a month’s vacation in Scotland, MackayDunn said he’s already starting to notice his players’ excitement for the trip. “The Facebook chatter is really starting to build, that’s for sure,” he said. Prior to leaving for Alaska, the team will
hold a five-day training camp, from Aug. 19-24. And though the team’s final roster for the coming season is not yet set in stone, Mackay-Dunn was confident he’d be able to put a strong team on the field. “There are still some guys who are up in the air about playing, but if we get everybody on the team we want, we’ll be pretty pleased,” he said.

Big Kahuna Rams improved their CJFL record to 2-2 with a thrilling 42-34 victory over visiting Victoria Rebels Saturday afternoon at South Surrey Athletic Park, where temperatures climbed near the mid-30s at field level. The win gave Big Kahuna a sweep of their home and home series with the Rebels, as well as an outstanding performance out of rookie quarterback Nathaniel White. As one of three quarterbacks used so far this season, White staked his claim as starter by completing 14 of 20 pass attempts for 412 yards and five touchdowns. He also ran the ball nine times for 89 yards, and chipped in with a tackle. White – a former Earl Marriott Mariner – didn’t waste time getting on the scoreboard as he found Matt Chapdelaine with a 42-yard scoring strike on the Rams second play of the game. Nick Boyd’s 45-yard field goal gave the Rams a 10-0 lead, but the Rebels hit back quickly. BCFC rushing leader Sam Adu slipped Nathaniel White through the middle and outran everyone to the end zone for a 70-yard touchdown. Victoria then scored an 18-yard field goal from Quinn van Gylswyk to tie the score at 10-10 five minutes into the second quarter. Nick Downey – named CJFL special teams player of the week – hauled in a pass and turned it into a spectacular 80-yard touchdown play with five minutes left in the half. Late in the half, White found Chapdelaine again, this time with a 40-yard touchdown pass that put Big Kahuna up a 24-10. At the start of the second, Van Gylswyk pulled off a short kick-off to himself that caught the Rams off guard. Rams defensive unit had to take the field in a rush and, before they had a chance to regroup, Cobb hit Kyle Pitch with a 40-yard bomb deep into Big Kahuna territory. Cobb scored himself on a six-yard run before South Surrey fans had a chance to get back in their seats. White slowed things down a bit for the Rams before connecting with Downey for a 60-yard effort that put the Rams back up by 14. The Rebels answered and – buoyed by a pass interference call – moved the ball deep. Cobb then hit Cannata with a 16-yard scoring strike. After a Rams’ 20-yard field goal that gave the squad some breathing room, another passinterference call helped the Rebels move the ball to the Rams’ one-yard line. Cobb pushed himself into the end zone and suddenly the score was 34-31 for the Rams early in the fourth quarter. With momentum on the Rebels’ side, Rams dug deep and pressured Cobb into throwing two incomplete passes, and Belah Small played hero with a key interception. On second and 13 at his own 45-yard line, White dropped back, looking to pass. With no safe throw available, he weaved his way through the Rebels’ defence on a 43-yard run. White barely had time to catch his breath, and he took the snap and threw a nice touch pass to Chapdelaine for his third touchdown of the day. It was a long, hot afternoon for the Big Kahuna defensive unit, but they came up big and turned in one of the most gutsy performances in memory. Leading the way was veteran defensive lineman Kurt Pederson, recording six solo tackles, one special teams tackle and three sacks, for a whopping total of 23 defensive points. Pederson put an exclamation point on his effort with a huge hit on Sam Adu late in the game, and a few plays later, Pederson’s third sack of the game stopped the Rebels’ drive and forced van Gylswyk to kick a 42-yard field goal. The win gave Big Kahuna a share of third place with their next opposition. The much-improved Kamloops Broncos pay a visit to South Surrey Athletic Park Saturday, Aug. 21, kickoff at 3 p.m.

Surrey leads starts in Metro Vancouver Metro Vancouver recorded 1,124 housing starts in July, reports the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation. Year-to-date, builders have started construction on 8,005 new homes in the Vancouver Census Metropolitan Area, CMHC says. “An adequate inventory of newly completed and unsold homes, and a well-supplied resale market have tempered housing starts to more modest levels,” says CMHC senior market analyst Robyn Adamache. “So far this year, Surrey has led new housing construction in the Vancouver CMA with half of the new homes started being singledetached dwellings,” she says.
“Strong population growth and an ample on industrial and commercial development as supply of land for development have encourwell, he notes. aged new home construction in the area.” “It enables you to live, work and play here,” While the total number of starts for the says Simpson, who lives in Surrey. “I don’t region is down by 10 per cent from have to leave town to go to work or for June’s new-home starts, Greater Vanrecreation.” couver Home Builders’ Association Surrey was recently ranked fourthpresident and CE) Peter Simpson best place in Canada to invest in real notes that “year-to-date, we’re more estate by the Real Estate Investment than double.” Network; REIN also ranked it first in “I prefer to see double what we the province. were last year, rather than half,” Even though starts are down this Simpson says of local housing starts.

“A relatively large number of homes for sale has created the most favourable supply conditions for homebuyers in more than a year,” says BCREA chief economist Cameron Muir. Active MLS residential listings were 21 per cent higher in July than at the start of the year on a seasonally adjusted basis, but with newly listed MLS residential units now declining, “tighter market conditions may emerge this fall,” the BCREA says.

Beauty is much more than skin deep smile or sunken face is often associated with looking old. It is also commonly the result of missing one or more teeth. Besides their obvious functions in speech and chewing, teeth are essential in holding up the structure of the mouth and lower half of the face. In many cases, loss of teeth will not only diminish that support, but also relate to the loss of surrounding bone. We know that the loss of teeth may lead to a corresponding loss of up to 70% of bone volume in that region within a short time. The resulting net decrease in facial volume may be beyond compensation by any amount of botox or dermal fillers. There is a saying that “the soft tissue may be the issue but the bone sets the tone”. As Oral Implantologists, we reconstruct the jaw by not only replacing the numbers of missing teeth, but also by reconstructing the underlying bone whenever possible. Doing so ensures that the new tooth replacement is in the right position for proper function and

support of the overlying soft tissue. In the event that it is not possible to reconstruct the missing bone, the replacement teeth can be made in such a way to mimic the original position of the bone and thereby still support the face. A fuller face generally reflects a younger look and a more beautiful smile. So reclaim your smile starting from the inside. Visit your dentist to find out how implant dentistry can make you look and feel younger.

HOME SHOWCASE
DIY jobs for weekend warriors People love to work on their homes and that the home improvement industry is going strong. But even the most ardent do-it-yourselfer likely ďŹ nds it difďŹ cult to make the time for home improvements. Commitments to work, family and social life can make it hard to get everything done around the house. However, the following projects are ideal for the weekend warrior who wants to start and ďŹ nish a project over the course of a few days. • Paint up a storm. Painting can be the ideal weekend project, one that truly gives homeowners a sense of accomplishment. When done correctly, painting can give a room or rooms an entirely new feel, making a homeowner feel as if the home he arrived home to on Friday night is not the same one he’s leaving on Monday morning. When attempting to complete a painting project in one weekend, be sure to choose rooms that only need paint. In rooms with signiďŹ cant plaster

work to be done, the project will likely take longer than the weekend, as the plaster will need to be patched before it dries and then get sanded (rooms with only minor plaster damage should be more weekend-friendly). Choose smaller rooms for weekend painting projects and reap the rewards of a weekend well spent. • Replace vanity faucets. Another easy project that can make a dramatic visual difference is to replace vanity faucets around the home. Old vanity faucets can be an
eyesore. But they can be easily replaced in a single weekend as long as there are no issues with the plumbing and the replacement parts are the same size as existing parts. Homeowners who are aware of or suspect issues with plumbing should consult a professional before replacing any faucets. Risking it and going it alone could result in disaster, one that takes more than a weekend to correct. • Tile till the heart is content.

OBITUARIES
Dr. (Edwin) Peter Robin passed away quietly and with dignity in hospital on August 15, 2010; like his wife who passed in 2008, he also loved and was loved and greatly respected by all those who knew him. He will be remembered for his humility, kindness, and great generosity. Peter was born in Prince George, BC on January 1st, 1923 to Alfred and Clara (Nelson) Robin. He grew up living in the train station at Hutton, where his father was station master. He went to school in a one room school house with his brother and three sisters in Sinclair Mills. He left Hutton before finishing school and became a radio operator in various parts of northern BC. He joined the merchant Navy as a radio operator near the end of the Second World War and sailed to various parts of the world including Africa. Upon his return, he continued with his radio operating and soon joined partnership in a radio store, Duke-Robin Radio and Electric, in New Westminster while attending school to get his high school diploma. He then went on to UBC where he received his Zoology degree and then on to get his medical degree. In 1954 he graduated as a member of the first graduating class from the new Faculty of Medicine at UBC. During his medical internship at Shaughnessy Military Hospital, he met Rose Galbraith who was to become his loving wife of 52 years. Peter began his practice in White Rock in 1957 and continued to reside and practice there until his retirement in 1989. Following his retirement Peter and Rose continued to live in White Rock until 2004 when they moved to Duncan, BC. Peter was predeceased by his loving wife Rose, his brother Ernest, and his sister Linnea. He is survived by his 3 children John (Janis), Janet, and Joan (Deni) and his grandchildren, Ashleigh (Kane), Chrissy, Katie (Adam), Vicki, Tracy, Peter, Heidi, Jenny, CJ, Duncan and Claire and his great-grandchildren, Alix and Marcus. He is also survived by his sisters Sylvia and Anna and his nieces and nephews as well as numerous cousins, relations and friends across the country and around the world. He was greatly loved and will also be missed by the many international students he and his wife, Rose “adopted” over the years. Services were held Thursday, August 19th, 3:00 pm at St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church in Duncan, BC and interment Saturday, August 21st, 10:00 am in Victoria where he will be buried with his wife at Hatley Memorial Gardens.
