Victims ‘not co-operating’ after armed men swarm 24 Avenue home

Neighbour injured in home invasion Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

Police attend scene of home invasion.

Police looking for multiple suspects in connection with an armed home invasion in South Surrey say their efforts are being hampered by unco-operative victims. Officers raced to a home in the 15200block of 24 Avenue around 1:30 p.m. June 7, after several males armed with a machete and firearms broke in. No serious injuries were reported, however, a neighbour who tried to help was struck by

a vehicle police believe was associated with the attack. “Nobody was stabbed, nobody was shot,” Cpl. Drew Grainger said the next day. “There was a bit of pushing and shoving, but nobody (in the house) was injured.” Officers with Surrey RCMP’s Major Crime Section are investigating, but Grainger said their efforts are being complicated by a lack of co-operation from the victims. He described the home’s occupants at the time of the attack as “young people that are

known to police to be involved in the drug trade.” “They’re not co-operating with the police and they are the primary people that we would need to solve this.” The suspects are described as males in their late teens to early 20s. Reports at the scene indicated an armed suspect or suspects were breaking into the home when a neighbour intervened and was hit by a vehicle as it fled the area. see page 4

U.S. man in custody

Train-top hitchhiker Passersby enjoying White Rock pier Thursday had a few extra minutes to enjoy the view, after a hitchhiker was spotted on the roof of a westbound freight train. The report prompted an emergency stop of the train, which came to rest blocking waterfront access. White Rock resident Pat Petrala said she had just departed the pier when the train rolled to a stop just before 11 a.m. She said the train engineer told her the response was due to an “unauthorized nonCanadian hitchhiker that was spotted on the roof and had jumped off and tried to run into Canada.” “We couldn’t see if they caught him or not,” Petrala said. BNSF spokesperson Gus Melonas confirmed the railway company received a report of a trespasser. “We immediately shut down the operation of the train and we’re investigating further,” he said. Surrey RCMP officers were dispatched to both ends of the train, and a 19-year-old U.S. citizen was taken into custody. Faith St. John, spokesperson for Canada Border Services Agency, confirmed shortly after noon that one person “is being dealt with,” but said she could not comment further. “We are dealing with this person as we speak,” St. John said. - Tracy Holmes

Makenzy, Isabelle and Spencer Honing are thrilled to have a new trampoline, donated after theirs was stolen last month.

The Good Samaritan who dropped by Isabelle Honing’s South Surrey home last week wants to remain anonymous. But seven-year-old Isabelle knows at least one thing about the man who brought her family a new trampoline June 1.

“I got his heart,” the youngster said, putting her hand to her chest. The sentiment referred to how news the family’s own trampoline had been stolen and destroyed had touched the man’s heart and inspired him to do what he could to right a wrong. He arrived at the Honings’ door shortly after

have much of a future as an independent city if it can’t do a better job of reducing costs and easing up a bit on the tax burden. If it loses its independence, the firefighters will be part of the Surrey fire department whether they like it or not. While many city residents can easily afford tax increases each year, many others can’t. It is time that all city governments – and their employees – realize that many of those who pay their salaries do not get annual wage increases, are on limited incomes and find it hard to pay property tax bills that keep rising each year, far beyond the level of inflation. One of the great advantages of White Rock firefighters becoming part of the Surrey department would be that it would formalize what has historically been a good working relationship between the two departments. In addition to offering many more career opportunities, being part of the fire department in B.C.’s fastest-growing city would be exciting, challenging and always interesting. It’s 2011, not pre-recession 2007. Firefighters and the city need to get past what was once a deep difference in their positions, and come together to serve the citizens of White Rock in a mature and responsible manner.

Baseball volunteers embroiled in lawsuit Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

A civil suit alleging the White Rock South Surrey Baseball Association failed to adhere to its own rules when it sanctioned two volunteers for “knowingly breaking rules” has been filed in B.C. Supreme Court. According to the notice of claim, John Hogg and Graham Edwards are seeking an order quashing the sanctions, which revoke their ability to volunteer with the association for two years. The men also want findings of misconduct expunged. “The plaintiffs seek a declaration that there has been an omission, defect, error or irregularity in the conduct of the affairs of the

defendant,” the claim states. The sanctions were issued by the association in late January; appeals by both Hogg and Edwards were dismissed mid-March; the civil claim was filed April 14. The association has yet to file a response. However, an email distributed Sunday and directing recipients to a website with further details claims the sanctions stemmed from actions last summer that effectively eliminated the 12-year-old White Rock all-star team’s chances of advancing to provincial and national championships. The association executive Tuesday posted an online notice describing the email as “unauthorized.” The same notice states efforts

are underway to resolve the matter: “Over the past year, the executive has considered the Hogg Edwards matter, levied a penalty and is currently responding to a court action.” Asked for comment, representatives of the association requested Peace Arch News not report on the matter at this time. Hogg’s and Edwards’ lawyer, Janet Winteringham, said Wednesday she has asked the association to respond to the statement of claim by June 13. Winteringham said it is unfortunate the dispute has gone this far and she is hopeful the matter can be resolved. Hogg and Edwards “exhausted all that they could internally” before turning to the courts, she noted.

Hogg declined to comment on the allegations that led to the sanctions. He said while the situation has been “extremely hard for a lot of people,” he remains hopeful an informal resolution can be reached. “One of the goals here is to ensure that there is a fair, independent and transparent process that people have access to, and that has not been afforded in this case,” Hogg said. “Hopefully, we can all get through this in a way that we’re all stronger at the end of it.” Hogg and Edwards are also seeking special, general, aggravated and punitive damages. A parent petition is calling for association directors to hold a general meeting to explain what has transpired to date.

Lister said much of the money that was collected on the Peninsula has helped the shelter cover vaccinations and food. She was also able to arrange a home for around 15 starving chickens she found caged on a property in the evacuation zone. When she first spotted the coop, five were already dead, and the rest furiously drank the water she gave them. This weekend, Niino plans to return to the residence and bring the surviving chickens to his parents’ countryside home. Lister estimates there are still thousands of animals in the evacuation zone. She said there are many roaming cows, some now with calves. While she didn’t see others tending to the pets, Lister said there are volunteers sneaking into the zone to leave food and water. As far as the evacuees, Lister said many of them think they will be returning to their homes in January – an impression Lister has a hard time believing. “I don’t think they can go back home.” While Lister has been settling back into her routine since coming home May 30, she plans to return to Japan in the fall with her husband. She is also going to continue supporting JEARS, and said anyone who also wants to contribute can drop off donations at her restaurant (1347 Johnston Rd.) to be sent to Japan.

A Surrey teenager has been selected as one of the top 20 young leaders in the country. Ivneet Bains, 19, was chosen as a recipient of Top 20 Under 20 honours, a national youth award presented by Youth in Motion that rewards young Canadians who show significant innovation, achievement and leadership. Bains, a longtime volunteer and graduate of Panorama Park Secondary, was Ivneet Bains recognized for a math mentorship program he developed. Soon after immigrating from India in 2007, Bains founded Math4me, an organization that develops youth academically and socially. It is managed by university and high school students and focuses on math and fostering self-confidence through public speaking such as debates. “Bullying and the lack of motivation and guidance among students inspired me to change (students’) attitudes through volunteering,” he says. Math4me now boasts 16 employees and has impacted more than 300 students. Some participants’ grades have increased by 60 per cent. Bains’ plans are to remain devoted to his organization so he can reach his goal of affecting a million lives and achieving Math4me’s mission statement: students today, scholars tomorrow. In an interview before his high school graduation two years ago, Bains already had big plans. “I’m so passionate about my studies and whenever I study I have the feeling I want to gain something from that. My goal is to help people in the world,” he said. His passion stretched far beyond academics even then, however, as he listed his volunteer work with local environmental groups and at the hospital. “I live, I don’t just exist,” he said.

JUNE SPECIALS

Border guard trial begins The trial of a Canadian border guard arrested following a 13-month investigation into an “infiltration” of organized crime at the Pacific Highway border got underway this week in B.C. Supreme Court in New Westminster. Surrey resident Baljinder Kandola was arrested at the com-

mercial crossing in October 2007 – along with Richmond residents Shminder Johal and Herman Riar – after a border guard was seen letting two SUVs enter Canada unchecked. A search uncovered 208 kilograms of cocaine and three prohibited handguns in one of the GMC Yukon Denalis; the search

of a home connected to a suspect in a second Denali recovered more than $200,000 cash. Kandola, who had worked at the port for six years at the time of his arrest, was charged with multiple offences, including importing cocaine. The trial is scheduled before Justice Selwyn Romilly till June 30.

Arrest unrelated to attack: police from page 1 A teenager, who said he lived at the house with his parents and sister, told Peace Arch News police were on the scene when he arrived home from school. He was not allowed past yellow police tape that stretched across the front of his and a neighbour’s home, however, his mother approached and handed him the family dog, he said. Prior to his arrival, a woman could be seen sitting on the trunk of a car comforting what appeared to be a teenage girl. The

legs of a shoeless male dressed in shorts, a hoodie and only one sock were bandaged in at least two places. While one male was taken into custody, police say no arrests have been made associated to the home invasion itself. The person arrested was identified by police at the scene as wanted in connection with an earlier roadrage incident in South Surrey, Grainger said. “He was in the wrong place at the wrong time. He just came over there to see what was going on.”

Police at the scene would not comment on the incident. Grainger described the incident as “an example of how the South Surrey area is a growing community.” As it continues to grow, police are seeing the criminal element “become more prevalent,” he said. Investigators are continuing to follow up on a number of leads regarding the latest incident. Anyone with information is asked to call Const. Mike Halskov at 604-599-7691 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

‘It turned out to be quite magical’ from page 1 They bought the trampoline a year ago, in large part as physical therapy for Isabelle, who has Down syndrome. Brother Spencer, 14, pitched in for half the cost from money he’d earned on his paper route, and the siblings, along with older brother Makenzy, 16, had played on the trampoline practically every day since. The day she discovered the crime, mom Lynda Honing described the theft and destruction as “so disturbing.” This week, while still upset that someone could do such a thing, Honing said she and her family are heartened by the outpouring

of support they’ve received since the news got out. “It’s been very emotional. I had no idea that this would happen,” Honing said of telephone and email offers to replace the trampoline. One woman even came by with a $100 cheque for Spencer. “She said she knows what it’s like to do a paper route… how hard he must have worked to save that money,” Honing recalled. “It’s unbelievable. “It all turned out to be quite magical.” Spencer and Makenzy said they, too, are feeling better in the wake of the community’s generosity.

“A lot better, that people who read the paper came up with love and, just bless their hearts, donated a trampoline and donated me $100,” Spencer said. “Very nice people.” Honing said she told the man who dropped off the trampoline about happier stories that she has been part of in PAN. In particular, she spoke of one that described a fundraiser she was involved in that raised $15,000 for an orphanage in Peru. “He goes, ‘see, I’m paying it forward because you’re already paying it forward’,” Honing said. “What comes around goes around.”

Still seeking HST answers

hom do you trust? As the campaign for voters’ hearts and minds in the provincial HST referendum reaches its final stage, most of us seem to have heavy hearts. And according to a recent Angus Reid poll, some of us have such clouded minds we’re not even clear on what the basic question means any more. It can’t be doubted that some of the confusion comes from a chorus of raised voices – not to mention stick figures – who accost us daily. Do we trust Fight HST organizers Bill Vander Zalm and Chris Delaney, whose travelling town hall meeting show comes to Kent Street Activity Centre in White Rock Sunday (June 12, 1 p.m.)? They play well to the emotions, particularly locally (a point that Finance Minister Kevin Falcon, an Ocean Park resident and SurreyCloverdale MP might want to give closer attention). But while their successful grassroots initiative resulted in the referendum in the first place, they have not been immune to charges of misleading the public on facts. Neither has the provincial NDP, which has launched a campaign to extinguish the HST and return to the GST-plus-PST structure. Do we believe their claim that going back to the GST/PST will help balance the budget sooner, as well as save taxpayers $2 billion? Falcon has attacked NDP Leader Adrian Dix for faulty math, saying the 10 per cent HST rate promised by the Liberals by 2014 is clearly less than the 12 per cent GST/PST rate championed by Dix. Falcon also wonders where the money will come from to “fix the $3-billion hole extinguishing the HST would create?” – possibly forgetting that, for taxpayers, this begs the question of who actually dug the hole. In the current believability stakes, the BC Liberals come off about as popular as a teen who – not content with taking the family car without permission and wrapping it around a tree – now presents us with the repair bill and a sanctimonious lecture on vehicle maintenance. Should we believe advertiser-conscious media pundits – who say that what’s good for business is good for the rest of us? While businesses may be getting a break with the HST, how many have actually passed savings on to the public? They can’t survive on tax breaks alone – the key to business success must be consumers with enough disposable income to buy their goods. The average taxpayer might be forgiven for wondering if, like Diogenes, one must venture forth with a lamp seeking someone who will give us a straightforward – and honest – answer.

Will you support keeping a reduced HST?

yes 32% no 68% 178 responding cropping up as far away as Chilliwack and Nanaimo. And for once, admittedly, this province has something to talk about other than gang shootings, homelessness and the HST. But since when does excitement and pride translate into egotism? Even if our Canuck pride has bordered on conceit in the eyes of some anti’nuckleheads, was there ever a season like this one? We were the first-place team during the regular season, racking up more points than ever before in team history. The league’s top point-earner was our very own Daniel Sedin, whose season was only a tad better than his brother, Henrik’s. Even Bobby-Lou – though perhaps not at his finest in Games 3 and 4 – was ranked among the top few regularseason goalies, earning himself a Vezina trophy nomination. So if being excited about our team having a record-breaking season followed by a hard-fought, exciting and emotional playoff run makes us ‘cocky’ in the eyes of non-believers, then I guess we’re all arrogant. To those across the country who have jumped on the bandwagon to cheer on the last of the Canadian teams in the hunt for the cup, welcome aboard – we’ll need your support more than ever for the next two or three games. And to those who would “rather take a slapshot to the shinbone” than see the Canucks win – as one blogger so eloquently put it – we’ve come this far without you.

Make them pay for taking off Editor: Re: Running away a cowardly act, May 25 editorial. I have given a lot of thought to the hit-and-run-driver situation. No matter what the excuse, it gives the driver time to recover from drugs or alcohol impairment before deciding to return to the scene. Or, of course, to never return. I believe a new law is necessary covering the situation. An automatic DUI guilty plea should be established, with at least double the standard penalty, for any involved driver leaving the scene of an accident. No time off for good behaviour should be allowed. Add 10 years for a second offence. Richard Bradley, White Rock

Simple solution eliminates risk Editor: Most people are now aware the World Health Organization has reclassified wireless telecommunications emissions as a Class 2B Potential Human Cancer Risk. Microwave radiation emissions are now in the same risk category as lead and DDT. It is notable that the risk is not confined to cellphone exposure, but to all wireless devices emitting microwave radiation. Would I be forced against my will to endure the spraying of DDT on my lawn and in my house every day? Would I be forced to paint my house inside and out with lead paint? Of course not! So why am I being forced to have a device of similar risk affixed to my house, emitting high-power density spikes of microwave radiation every minute or few seconds and permeating my home continuously? This is undemocratic, and further, an act of terrorism and criminality. By educated choice, our house has no wireless devices, including cellphones, as we have long been cautious about the health risks of microwave radiation, and two members of our family are medically diagnosed electrohypersensitive. Now, BC Hydro is forcing us to have a cellphone device strapped to our house emitting constant microwave radiation classified by the WHO as potential cancer risk. And what about the poor people whose home will be designated as a collection point for smartmeter wireless signals before being transmitted onwards? Are these families being asked if they wish to be the collection point for microwave radio-frequency radiation signals coming from all around their neighbourhood to their very home? Perhaps BC Hydro should be offering more money to the families who are willing to take on a higher cancer and overall health risk as the neighbourhood radiofrequency radiation collection point? For those suffering with electrohy-

persensitivity, exposure to wireless microwave radiation emissions can cause disabling health consequences. We need Energy Minister Rich Coleman and Premier Christy Clark to protect families and stop the use of microwave radio-frequency radiation with smart meters. A simple solution is to tie smart meters into the phone lines, or fibre optic cables that run to most areas. Our families, our children, must have the right to protect their health in their own homes. Una St. Clair, White Rock Citizens for Safe Technology Society

Silver lining for our province Editor: Cloud computing is becoming a big part of many people’s lives – whether they know it or not – and that growing computer cloud could have a very big silver lining for British Columbia. For those not completely up on cloud computing, it allows people

to put their files and software on remote servers which they can then access from wherever they are; on their laptop, desktop or any other computer device they own, including cellphones. So what’s the silver lining for B.C.? Well, all those remote servers that support the cloud require a lot of electricity, particularly to keep them cool. And right now, most of the cloud computing servers around the world are being powered and cooled by coal-fired electricity. In fact, information and communications technology worldwide is now believed to rival the airline industry in terms of carbon emissions. However, if the world’s cloud computing servers were moved to British Columbia, those servers could be powered by the abundance of clean, renewable energy available in this province, instead of by burning coal or gas. Moving all those energy-hungry computer servers to places like B.C., where clean electricity can be generated in abundance, seems like a very logical thing to do and a golden opportunity for British Columbia. Charles Davis, White Rock

Grads mark year of firsts Editor: The graduates of École Panorama Ridge Secondary celebrated their commencement ceremony on Monday, May 30 at the Bell Centre for the Performing Arts.

The rush to secure the 2010 Olympics led to a short-term rapid-transit solution in Canada Line, writes L.N. Giles.

We hurried up so we could wait Editor: Re: Bus Rapid Transit sounds attractive – on the surface, June 3. Columnist Frank Bucholtz’s article, in many respect, hits the nail squarely on the head. The key phrase “transit sounds attractive” has been the bane of our regional transportation system for years. Proposals sound good; however what appeared attractive turns out, in the end, to be a nightmare. Consider this: the Canada Line was a proposal designed to satisfy the minimum requirements of the Olympic committee demands as a condition to secure the Winter Olympics for Vancouver. The Canada Line was not a project based upon the long-term mass-transit needs of a rapidly growing society, the very essence of the rationale for determining the need for such a system. It was a plan to meet the Vancouver Olympic Committee’s short-term needs to secure the Olympics for Vancouver at all costs. The official opening for the Canada Line was in August 2009. Now, less that two years later, the line is swamped and does not cope well with large volumes of passenger traffic. During the morning rush, by the time trains from Richmond reach Bridgeport Station, they are near-full, leaving many passengers to wait for the next train from the airport. Station platforms are small and, in peak hours, congested. This could be dangerous. Incoming and outgoing passengers impede each other, due to limited stairways and escalators. Stations have been designed to accommodate two passenger cars,

with no consideration to future needs to add cars. Did not someone stop to think in the initial construction stages that if stations were made to be expandable, huge costs could be saved in the future? I think not; remember, we were focused on the Olympics! Toronto, in the early 1970s, put a future-looking plan into place for its transportation system that is paying dividends today. There is no chance of that here. As Surrey and other districts look at transportation needs of their communities, they better take a long, hard and serious look to the future and think outside the box. As Bucholtz points out, the bus system is designed to move passengers to SkyTrain and Canada Line terminals, which will compound the “bottleneck” problem. Bucholtz also points to transit projects that “can’t get funded,” which is not surprising, as a totally inefficient fare system is in place. Finally, there is some suggestion a turnstile system will be introduced. The honour system does not work; that fact is pretty blatant when the ticketvending machines are only busy when green-jacketed Canada Line staff are at the entrances checking tickets. Is it any wonder why transit projects can not be funded when the fare system tolerates abuse? There are exceptional mass-transit systems in service around the world. Transit officials visited many of them at considerable taxpayer cost, and it seems little was learned. The result, Vancouver’s system falls far short of what might have, or could have been in place today. L.N. Giles, Surrey

Road & Sidewalk Improvements This council is committed to infrastructure improvements in our City by the Sea. As a result, the City’s Engineering and Municipal Operations department has been very busy providing much needed improvements to the city’s infrastructure. Their list of completed capital projects for 2011 is staggering and we’re only half way through the year. In 2010 the City of White Rock received close to $6 million in Provincial and Federal government grants, the most ever received in the history of our city! The benefits of this funding will continue to be evident throughout the remainder of 2011. Last year these grants enabled us to start 40 projects, allowing for major infrastructure improvements, including improvements to roads, sidewalks and safe pedestrian crossings. Recently completed road and intersection improvements: • Marine/Vidal traffic signals • Marine/Oxford traffic signals • Marine/Elm crossing improvements • Pacific/ Johnson crossing improvements • Oxford hill traction improvement • Traffic analysis (East Beach, Roundabouts, Victoria Ave., Roper/Foster, Johnston/ North Bluff ) • Traffic circle Cypress and Royal Recently completed pedestrian improvements: • Anderson – North Bluff to Russell sidewalk • Pacific – Maple to Ewson sidewalk • Magdalen sidewalk • Marine Drive – Cypress to Martin sidewalk • Vine – Oxford to Anderson • Vine at Hospital • Russell at George curb letdowns • Thrift at George curb letdowns • Roper at Fir curb letdowns • Thrift at Fir curb letdowns New curb letdowns on Fir • Best sidewalk Road and pedestrian improvements to watch for: • Pedestrian improvements on Roper Avenue between Finlay and Kent • Pedestrian improvements on Russell Avenue at Fir Street • Sightline improvements for high use intersections • Lane paving • North Bluff improvements This is just a small example of the road and sidewalk improvements throughout the City of White Rock. These improvements have increased accessibility, ensuring that the City of White Rock is a safe and accessible city for everyone.

If you could plan the best park in the neighbourhood, what would you create? Now is your chance! Maccaud Park, located on Kent Street and North Bluff Road, is currently a neighbourhood green space, but could become much more based on the desires of the surrounding residents.

PAN to change delivery days Readers of Peace Arch News will soon notice the community paper on their door steps a little earlier in the week when a distribution change takes place later this month. Effective the last week of June, PAN will be publishing on Tuesdays and Thursdays – moved from the current Wednesday and Friday publication – a change publisher Linda Klitch said will meet the growing demand for timely information. “As our community grows and changes, so does the Peace Arch News,” Klitch said. “The one constant is that people still want to

be fully engaged locally.” Citing trends in consumer shopping patterns, Klitch said the need for advertising information to be disseminated earlier is greater than ever in today’s fastpaced world. “We know that time is a precious commodity, and time is well spent staying informed,” she said, noting a recent Ipsos Reid survey that reported Peace Arch News is the preferred community newspaper of 93 per cent of readers in White Rock and South Surrey. With the upcoming change at PAN, Klitch said the newspaper

Congestion, pavement, bike lanes among gripes

Pattullo named area’s worst Jeff Nagel Black Press

The 73-year-old Pattullo Bridge has been voted the worst strip of road in the Lower Mainland in a B.C. Automobile Association survey. Although the bridge is notoriously narrow, it made third place on the list of the province’s worst roads for congestion, according to BCAA spokesman Trace Acres. “It’s no surprise that the Pattullo Bridge is on the list. Or that the ❝I don’t think Massey Tunnel (#10) is on there’s any the list,” Acres question that said. “But every road on they’re cited for congestion this list could as opposed use some to being attention.❞ cited for road conditions.” Trace Acres TransLink BCAA wants to replace the Pattullo with a new six-lane bridge, but it’s not yet clear whether a four-lane replacement will be approved instead, when it will happen and whether the new span will come with tolls. The Oak Street Bridge came in at number 15 for damaged pavement, while the Iron Workers Memorial Bridge

Tents stolen Thieves that made off with two pop-up tents from East Kensington Elementary last Friday night have cut into the school’s efforts to build a new playground. The two tents, erected Friday night in advance of the school’s annual spring fair the next day, had been borrowed from another school, and now have to be replaced at a cost of approximately $600. “We’re a small school, and we only raised $1,500 at the fair, and now for $600 of that to be spent on new tents – that’s a big chunk,” said the school’s PAC president Shari Tompe. “It’s put a big damper on our community.” Tompe said the tents were put up in an area behind the school – where they were thought to be out of sight – and when fair organizers returned Saturday morning, the tents were gone. Tompe said the tents – which measured about 10 feet by 10 feet – were white and without any school logos on them. - Nick Greenizan

appears at number 11 for poor bike paths. “When two bikes meet on that bridge the cyclists have to get off

and physically jockey the bikes by each other to continue,” Acres explained. Topping the list with 552 votes was a section of Ospika Boulevard in Prince George followed by the Mabel Lake Road near Enderby, both for damaged pavement. Silver Star Road near Vernon and the Pacific Rim Highway on Vancouver Island also made the list for pavement damage. “I don’t think there’s any question that every road on this list could use some attention,” Acres said. Some little known stretches of asphalt caused some headscratching at BCAA. Daly Road in Surrey, in a quiet area near Barnston Island, was voted into 14th place for damaged pavement. Even more respondents propelled Harris Road on Saturna Island into third place. “Obviously people in that area got the word out,” he said. Acres admits the survey wasn’t scientific – anyone could vote and round up their neighbours to help shame authorities into improving their local road. And social media websites were likely used to help spread the word, he said. A total of 4,000 people voted on the survey conducted in May.

Elizabeth Tichelman brings in thousands for breast cancer

Family inspires fundraising effort Hannah Sutherland Staff Reporter

Contributed photos

Elizabeth Tichelman with her aunt, Leslieann Tichelman, who was diagnosed with breast cancer last year. Right, Elizabeth with her grandmother, Therese Tichelman, who was her original inspiration for her fundraising efforts.

hen Elizabeth Tichelman first started fundraising for breast cancer research and support, she did so with one person in mind – her grandma. Therese Tichelman had already been battling the disease for 15 years when Elizabeth requested guests to her ninth birthday make a donation to the cause instead of purchasing a present. “I knew I wanted to do that for my grandma. I didn’t care about my gifts, I just really wanted to help my grandma,” Elizabeth, now 13, said. “My mom and dad carefully explained to me I might not be able to save my nana, but I could help create a future without breast cancer.” The party generated more than $1,000, which Tichelman personally presented to the Vancouver cancer clinic that treated her grandmother. Sadly, Therese Tichelman died two years later. Elizabeth found inspiration to act once again when her aunt, Leslieann Tichelman, was diagnosed with breast cancer last year. For Elizabeth’s 13th birthday, she made the same request from party guests – donations instead of gifts – and brought in $1,900, which she donated to the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation in honour of her aunt. Elizabeth said Leslieann was brought to tears when she learned what her niece had done. “She was so incredibly happy.” While both efforts fundraised a considerable amount for the foundation, Elizabeth was to hand over her largest contribution yet this week. After teaming up with White Rock boutique owner Raz Vasanji to host a fashion show benefit last month, Elizabeth ended up with $3,000 to donate. The May 26 event was held at Boutique Vasanji – where Elizabeth browses every week after her nearby trumpet lesson – and drew more than 100 people. Elizabeth spoke at the fundraiser, and

recruited friends and school acquaintances to serve as models for the fashion show. She said her brother, 11-year-old Richard Tichelman, sang Daughters by John Mayer for the crowd, and reduced many to tears. Elizabeth’s mother said local businesses happily provided items for raffle prizes, Vasanji donated 20 per cent of weekend sales and attendants were quick to dip into their pockets for the cause. “People are overwhelmed by a young person taking the initiative that they want to give more,” Tracy Tichelman said, noting most people had been touched by the disease. “Everyone in that room was somehow connected by someone who has been affected by cancer.” Tracy noted that her daughter’s benevolence doesn’t end with cancer fundraising – she also volunteers at a seniors home, where she visits with residents. “Elizabeth likes to help people,” she said. And the community is likely to hear more from the Grade 8 Elgin Park Secondary student. “I definitely know for a fact that I will fundraise again for breast cancer,” Elizabeth said. “After you feel you’ve done something good, you feel so good about yourself. “I’ve made someone else’s life better.”

Time to play

City of Surrey officials are challenging residents to join a Canada-wide effort to log one million minutes of play during the month of June. The Million Minutes of Play Challenge is to encourage healthy, active communities, said Mayor Dianne Watts. “And with our fantastic parks, recreation facilities and natural areas, the City of Surrey provides endless opportunities to be active. So, I encourage everyone to take this challenge and get out there and play!” The challenge was initiated by the city of Ajax, Ont., as part of CBC’s Live Right Now campaign, a movement designed to help Canadians make small, manageable changes that will have a large and lasting effect on their overall health. All kinds of activities count, from skateboarding and dancing to Frisbee and playing tag. The Million Minutes of Play Challenge is the first initiative launched under Surrey’s new “Be Active Surrey” campaign. To join the challenge, visit www.surrey.ca/ millionminutes

Students from Star of the Sea School show their Canucks spirit at Sunnyside Pool (above), while residents of Crescent Gardens (right) cheer on their team.

Canuck fever hits As the Vancouver Canucks head into Game 5 on home ice tonight, fans young and old on the Peninsula are standing behind their team as they battle for the Stanley Cup. Throughout the playoffs this spring, close to two dozen residents and staff at Crescent Gardens Retirement Community have been faithfully cheering on the home team. With blue pompoms in hand and homemade signs hanging from their necks that read “We want the Cup,” the group of fans gathered Wednesday afternoon in anticipation of Game 4 between the Canucks and the Bruins. Resident Ray Scorse, who said he has been cheering for the Canucks for decades, said the group that gathers for each game is a loyal one, and has yet to be discouraged by recent losses. “It was kind of a downer,” he said, of Monday night’s 8-1 blowout by the Bruins. “But (the fans) never left, they

stayed right till the bitter end.” Scorse said residents and staff each have their own pick for best Canuck, and when the subject of favourites was brought up, response was varied. “I’m from Germany, so I like Ehrhoff,” said one resident, sitting anxiously in the front row, while her neighbour chimed in, “We have to root for Luongo right now, we just have to.” “Burr-ows! Burr-ows!” another resident, adorned in a Canucks No. 14 jersey, chanted from the back row. While Scorse said the feeling throughout the retirement residence is that the Canucks will bring home the cup, the group is hesitant to look too far ahead. “We haven’t planned anything out just yet, we’re still waiting,” he said. “But most likely, we’ll have a big celebration.” – Melissa Smalley

lifestyles Crescent Beach Invitational to hit Blackie Spit in September

Popular Gastown car show switching gears Hannah Sutherland Staff Reporter

collector-car show that has been held in Gastown the last eight years will be leaving Vancouver and looking to make a new home in South Surrey. The Steamworks Concours d’Elegance has been rebranded the Crescent Beach Invitational ahead of its Sept. 3 debut in Blackie Spit Park. The change comes after the City of Vancouver – which previously allowed the event to be held on Water Street at no charge – started requiring a fee for the use of the street, according to organizer Colin Gurnsey. The free, volunteer-run show was searching for a new location when Crescent Beach was suggested, he said. “The City of Surrey has been very helpful – they’re letting us use the Blackie Spit green area,” Gurnsey said. “We’re very pleased with the support they’re giving us for that.” Automobile owners are being invited from all over Greater Vancouver, the Victoria area and Seattle – “wherever we can find them and wherever they’re willing to come from,” Gurnsey added. “People who have rare, special automobiles, quite often they spend a lot of money getting them restored. They’ve got a lot of pride in the cars; they like to show them.” The show will feature around 80 automobiles – and 15 vintage motorbikes – grouped into various classes, including

the various groupings of cars,” Gurnsey said, noting awards will also be handed out. “We’re suggesting if people are really happy with what they see that they might donate something to (BC) Children’s Hospital.” The event has been in the planning since January by a group of people who donate their time to bring the show back each year. “We’re just volunteers ourselves and we do this because we like to bring together interesting automobiles and we just see this as an opportunity to showcase them,” Gurnsey said. And, if the location proves successful, the invitational could become a recurring celebration in South Surrey. “That’s the sort of suggestion,” Gurnsey said. “We’re sort of treating it as a first-year trial to see how it works.” For more information on the Crescent Beach Invitational, visit crescentbeachinvitational.com

It will move to Crescent Beach this September. ’55, ’56 and ’57 Chevys; muscle cars; and Corvettes.

Tragically, however, they had to attend to a death in the family instead of going to the game. The couple went to their hotel and asked if they knew of someone worthy of receiving the tickets. The hotel contacted the media, which called the Surrey RCMP. Victims Services called Craig at home early Saturday morning. She was staying at her ex-husband’s, who had been consoling her through the trauma of seeing the accident. She climbed to the top of the stairs and said, “Playoff game… we’re… going.” Craig said the game served as a great distraction after seeing a girl her daughter’s age in an accident. “It helped for the night, but it was very mentally taxing, because I have a seven-year-old daughter,” Craig said. “And this little girl just turned eight on May 24.” The girl is expected to make a full recovery.

news Tour educates on breast cancer

Pink bus to make stop The province’s first mammography and breast health education centre on wheels will be visiting White Rock this weekend. The branded bus, which is fulfilling a goal to visit more than 50 B.C. communities in less than five months, is to set up at White Rock Farmers Market – 15154 Russell Ave. – June 12 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Tour staff will guide visitors through the interactive displays and encourage women between the ages of 49 and 79 to book a free mammogram in their communities. Women who register on the pink bus will receive calls back from the Screening Mammography Program of BC to arrange an appointment for their mammogram. Visitors to the bus are also invited to sign its exterior as a commitment to adopting breast health practices and booking their free mammogram. All of the bus’s breast health information will be made available in English, Punjabi and Chinese. Since the tour hit the road last month, more than 2,000 people have been through the bus and more than 200 have signed up to arrange a mammogram. Only 51 per cent of eligible women in the province have a regular mammogram, a release states. According to the World Health Organization, if 70 per cent of eligible women went for regular mammography screenings, the number of deaths from breast cancer would be reduced by up to one third.

Natural disasters. Peace-of-mind protection.

2 011

With natural disasters such as earthquakes and tsunamis devastating cities around the globe, it’s becoming more and more important that we understand the risks and take precautions. In B.C., its almost forest fire season - and we have seen firsthand the devastation these can cause to our belongings and homes. While it’s impossible to prevent a natural disaster, the guarantee of peaceof-mind protection should be expected from an insurance HOME company. How INSURANCE will your insurance WITH company respond LORI if disaster strikes? TAYLOR There are some fundamental things your insurance company should do:

Help to get you back on track. Depending on the extent of damage, you may need a team of tradespeople to help you restore your home. Though your insurance company may approve a certain amount of funds for restoration, you should still have the option to quote with a contractor of your choice. Or, if you prefer, your insurance company should provide the names of skilled professionals. The benefit of working with a local insurance company is that they will be able to give you qualified recommendations in your area.

Assist with the emergency. In the event of a natural disaster, you should be able to contact your insurance company any time day or night. Once coverage is confirmed, they should assist by calling in professionals to help and arrange for items like humidifiers, or tarp for your roof, to help reduce further damage. Explain coverage details. Once an adjuster has spoken to you, or viewed your loss, your insurance company should explain to you what is and isn’t covered under the policy. They should also discuss repair or replacement of your contents to help you decide how to move forward with your claim. If a natural disaster renders your home uninhabitable and coverage allows, your insurance company should also provide options for alternate accommodations until it can be restored.

Call 310-2345 or click on bcaa.com

Keep you informed. You shouldn’t be kept guessing. From beginning to end, your insurance company should keep you updated on progress and possible delays so that you have the confidence of knowing when your home will return to normal. There’s no way to predict when a natural disaster will occur, but if you understand the risks and take precautions, you can benefit from the peace-of-mind protection of your insurance company to alleviate the stress of a claim. Contact BCAA to learn more about BCAA Home Insurance and the kind of coverage and service you can expect should loss or damage occur to your home. Lori Taylor is an Insurance Advisor at BCAA.

news Market correction possible

Home prices ‘astounding’ Jeff Nagel Black Press

A new report warns “frothy Vancouver” is vulnerable to a real estate market correction that could bring a significant price drop. “Riding a wave of wealthy immigrants, Vancouver’s house prices have nearly tripled in the past decade, spiralling beyond the reach of most first-time buyers or non-lottery winners,” according to a report by Sal Guateri, a senior economist at BMO Capital Markets. He cited strong demand from Chinese buyers, stoked by looser travel restrictions as well as stricter purchase rules and higher prices in China. Guateri examined the ratio of average home prices to median family income – a key yardstick of real estate affordability. Vancouver prices are now an “astounding” 11.2 times the median local income, he found, compared to 4.6 times the median income in the rest of Canada and 6.7 in Toronto, the highest level of a major Canadian city after Vancouver. Ten years ago, Vancouver’s ratio was only 5.4 and prices were running only modestly ahead of Toronto’s. Now Vancouver’s prices are 71 per cent higher. “While land-use restrictions and high quality-of-life rankings can justify elevated prices, current steep valuations could prove unsustainable if foreign investment ebbs or interest rates climb,” Guateri cautioned. “How much could

prices fall?” he asked. “Four corrections in the past three decades saw declines averaging 21 per cent and valuations are higher today. “Still, if interest rates stay low and wealthy immigrants continue to pour into the city, prices could stabilize sooner than in past downturns.” The recent 200809 correction – a 13 per cent drop – was actually the mildest of the four. The worst was 1981-82, when Vancouver home prices fell 36 per cent. Even a modest increase in the current ultra-low interest rates would slow the market, the report said. The Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver’s benchmark price for detached houses hit $890,800 in May, a 10 per cent increase from a year ago. Apartments were up 2.2 per cent to $407,400 and attached units gained 3.5 per cent to $517,800. The benchmark price for detached houses rose 2.8 per cent in the past year to $529,800 in the Fraser Valley, which includes Surrey, North Delta, White Rock and Langley. Unlike the benchmark (which tracks typical properties), average prices have risen faster – the result of more sales of higher-end homes or houses on big acreages. The average price for a detached house rose 11.6 per cent to $630,870 in May, according to the board. Townhouses in the valley actually dipped 1.1 per cent to $328,300 and apartments were down 0.5 per cent to $252,200.

All packaging to be covered, industry in charge

Recycling in for shakeup understand what this transition will look like,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s quite a bit of time to figure it out.â&#x20AC;? He doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t expect any deposit or eco fees that will be added to products to pay for the packaging takeback system, nor would there be any refund system to encourage returns as with beverage containers. Instead, he predicts businesses will simply absorb the new recycling costs and reflect it in their local prices. Until now the cost of blue box recycling was shifted onto local government, Macdonald said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Now itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be industry and the consumer that funds that rather than local taxpayers.â&#x20AC;? Homeowners who now pay for recycling through a fee on their utility bills could see that amount go down, but some observers expect that money may increasingly fund pickup of organic food waste. While industry will shoulder the costs of the new system theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll also get the revenue from the recyclables collected, a shift of, in some cases, millions of dollars a year from local cities or recycling societies. Environmental watchdogs want to ensure the industry meets aggressive targets for recovering packaging and printed material and proves how much of what it collects is actually recycled. The province plans meetings with stakeholders across B.C. starting in mid-June and continuing in the fall.

Jeff Nagel Black Press

Big changes may be on the horizon for blue box recycling as we know it. The provincial government has given an industry group of producers and retailers 18 months to design a plan to collect all packaging and printed materials from consumers.

Green light for sewage plan Jeff Nagel Black Press

The province has approved Metro Vancouver’s new liquid waste plan but is giving no assurances it will meet the region’s key demand to share in the expense of building advanced new sewage treatment plants. The plan commits Metro to replace the Lions Gate and Iona sewage treatment plants – the two remaining ones discharging – by 2020 and 2030 respectively. The two projects are expected to cost $1.4 billion and threaten to dramatically increase sewer system fees for home owners, particularly in Vancouver and the North Shore. For the Lions Gate plant, North Shore residents face the prospect of fees rising from $250 per year now to $1,400 unless the federal and provincial government

step in to share a third of the costs each. Vancouverites could see their sewage costs soar to nearly $1,200 a year. “We’re talking big bucks,” said Metro waste committee chair Greg Moore, the mayor of Port Coquitlam. “We have to get their support to build these things.” Moore said he’s still optimistic Victoria and Ottawa will look favourably on Metro’s requests for support for the plant replacements. All other treatment plants in the region are already using more advanced secondary treatment systems. Iona and Lions Gate have been targeted in the past by environmental groups, alleging the effluent discharged to the ocean contravenes the Fisheries Act. The new plan also commits Metro to treat sewage as a resource, from which nutrients, energy and water can be reclaimed.

‘Cool experience’ leads to award for local youth Alex Browne Arts Reporter

Julia Bicknell, Ashley Elliot-Orsetti, Taylor Snider and Liam Johnson.

Four White Rock Elementary fine arts program alumni have a renewed interest in filmmaking, thanks to an unexpected honour they received last month. Taylor Snider, Ashley Elliot-Orsetti, Julia Bicknell, and Liam Johnson won the award for Outstanding Achievement in Early Teen Filmmaking at the 16th EyeLens Film, Video and Animation Festival, presented by the Gulf Islands Film and Television School May 14 at Vancouver’s Rio Theatre. The four – now students at Earl Marriott

Secondary – were recognized for the short comedy video, Rob Or Be Robbed, which they co-wrote, produced and directed a year ago during a special media-intensive program for Grade 7 students of former fine arts teacher Catherine Hanna held at the Galiano Islandbased film school. The video, one of 129 entered into this year’s festival, is viewable on YouTube, where it was recently uploaded with all 2,100 videos produced at the school over its 16-year history. Clocking in at almost six minutes, it’s a slickly-paced dark comedy about a constantlybickering couple with financial problems who

resort to robbery of a local store to pay their bills. One of the more absurd touches concocted by the students is the couple’s mode of communication during the robbery. Presumably unable to afford walkie-talkies, they fall back on the time-honoured – but scarcely unnoticeable – device of a string stretched between two tin cans to carry their voices. While the students said they were surprised at Rob Or Be Robbed being chosen top video in its category – particularly after a Grade 8 year in which they haven’t had time to give it see page 34

Legacy of thrift store lives on from page 31 in some way or another, fulfilled a need in their lives. A Journey With Daisy captures Walls’ style – and both the fondness and the firmness with which she approached her official and unofficial charges. There was a rightness to their meeting, Johnston and Walls agreed, during a recent visit to the Peace Arch News to promote the book. “It was kind of dream timing,” Johnston said, both for herself and Walls, who was forced to close the store a year ago due to her landlords’ plans to redevelop the property. “All my customers had said to me ‘you need to have a book’,” Walls said. “They told me there’ll be a day when you’re not around, and you’ll need to have something to let people know what you’ve done in the last 38 years.” For Johnston, volunteering at the store, and later writing about the wonderfully varied cast of characters that were part of Daisy’s daily life provided a focus that helped her over a tough patch in her own life. “The first day I walked into Daisy’s store I had committed to going to work for the wellness centre,” she said. “It didn’t bode well for me, but I had enough faith to know that something else would come.” The sad note is that the book is a memorial for a White Rock landmark that is no more. But even the closing of the store was something that Walls met with typically fierce pride. “Every one of the people I worked with got jobs,” she said. “I made sure of that. But it wasn’t difficult – every thrift store in White Rock needed people.” “You trained them well,” said Johnston. “I sure did,” Walls agreed. But, inevitably, there have been frustrations since she closed the store, Walls admits. “I still work with people,” she said, noting the

The building that housed Daisy’s Treasure Trove on Victoria Avenue was torn down last June. Modern Service Centre continues to exist as a registered society. “But I haven’t been top story, health-wise. I’m just getting over eye surgery. If I felt as good as I looked I’d feel great. When they say to you ‘you’re going into your golden years,’ don’t believe it. There’s nothing golden about them. “It’s a battle to stay and a battle to die. But what do you want to do, die or live? There’s nothing wrong with my brain. I feel like I need something to do.” But in the interim, Walls is more than ready to promote and champion the book, which she has done with personal appearances and signings at bookstores. “I think this is a book everybody needs to read – and they need to read it two or three times,” she said. “They can’t gather up all the depth with one reading.” Published through iUniverse, the book is available through www.iuniverse.com and also from local bookstores, including Indigo Books at Grandview Corners.

“So what’s new in the Law?” This a question sometimes asked of a lawyer as an icebreaker at a cocktail party. It has been a few years now, but did you know that under the Family Relations Act a common law spouse has no rights during a spouse’s lifetime to a spouse’s property? But surprisingly a common law spouse has the full rights of a married person to claim all or part of a spouse’s property when his or her spouse dies? It’s true. It’s not consistent but according to the present law a common law spouse has more rights when his or her spouse dies than if they separate. The term “spouse” includes same sex common law spouses thanks to a decision of a former White Rock lawyer, Mr. Justice William Scarth, of the Supreme Court of British Columbia. However, the goal posts are about to be moved again for common law relationships. Proposed new family law legislation, now ready for proclamation, gives a common law spouse substantial rights to the property of his or her common law spouse during his or her lifetime. Except under complex trust laws, a common law spouse at this very moment, that is, before the new legislation is proclaimed, has no rights to the property of his or her spouse during his or her lifetime. The new proposed Act changes the goal posts so if you have been in a state resembling marriage with another person for over two years, your common law spouse will soon have a legal right to claim substantial portions of your property if you separate during your lifetime.

We are pleased to announce that Surrey is now collecting mattresses for recycling.

Mattress Collection Challenges

Surrey’s Response...Recycle It!

On January 1, 2011, Metro Vancouver placed a disposal ban on mattresses as they are operationally difﬁcult to handle and recyclable when properly disassembled. Mattresses disposed of as garbage cannot be compacted – consuming a large amount of landﬁll space. In addition, the springs within mattresses often become tangled in equipment causing costly repairs. Customers that bring mattresses to regional transfer stations for disposal as garbage are charged $20/unit and are limited to only four (4) mattresses per load.

While Surrey had consequently stopped collecting mattresses via the Large Item Pickup Program as a result of the Metro Vancouver imposed disposal ban, the City has developed a process to recycle old unwanted mattresses. The City of Surrey will accept mattresses and box springs via the Large Item Pickup Program at no additional cost to residents. The collected mattresses will be delivered to a mattress recycling facility where they will be segregated into different materials and shipped to remanufacturing facilities to be processed into new reusable products.

How to Arrange Collection 1. Call Emterra Environmental at 604-635-5478 2. On the day of your appointment (or the evening before), place your mattress/boxspring at your curb. Ensure that your mattress is at the curb by 7:30am. * Please note that this program is available to households that are on the City’s door-to-door waste collection program. Mattresses or box springs will count towards your annual large item pickup limit of 4 items/calendar year.

For further information please visit www.surrey.ca or contact the Garbage & Recycling hotline at 604-590-7289. www.surrey.ca

rehearsals; something clearly beyond the scope of the exercise. The young musicians can rest assured that they have everything to be proud of in this monumental undertaking. But the concert was also the venue for several other performances that would have been memorable under any circumstances. Young cellist Roland Gjernes triumphed in a valedictory performance as soloist for Elgarâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Cello Concerto in E Minor with the full orchestra. Also featured was the simply splendid violin work of Lucy Wang as soloist, with the full orchestra, for Sarasateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Zigeunerweisen. Another indisputable gem was violinist Holly Wackerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s brief but polished performance, with a smaller contingent of the Strings, of Glazunovâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Meditation. The concert also spotlighted the Stringsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; younger feeder group, the aforementioned Demi-Semiahmoo Strings. Here, it was clear, we were hearing a student performance â&#x20AC;&#x201C; but one of a particularly high level, years ahead of the performersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; actual age group.

…on the Semiahmoo Peninsula

White Rock Tritons pitcher Josh Larsen throws a pitch during the first game of last weekend’s doubleheader against the Vancouver Cannons. Larsen didn’t allow a run over seven innings, and the Tritons won 1-0. James Maclennan photo

Josh Larsen, Nathan Trueblood combine to help White Rock improve PBL record

Tritons pitch pair of shutout victories Nick Greenizan Sports Reporter

The offence may still be at times inconsistent, but the White Rock Tritons have had no trouble getting production from the pitching mound. White Rock has won two of its last three – bumping its Premier Baseball League record to 10-13 – with both victories coming via shutout as the team’s top two pitchers, Josh Larsen and Nathan Trueblood, held the opposition at bay. At South Surrey Athletic Park on Sunday, Larsen and the Tritons opened a doubleheader against the Vancouver Cannons with a 1-0 victory, with Larsen picking up the win. He struck out four in six-andone-third innings, before being relieved by Trueblood, who got the final two outs to earn the save. Brandon Novak drove in the game’s only run on a first-inning double.

White Rock lost the nightcap by a narrow 2-1 margin, but bounced back Tuesday on the road with a 4-0 shutout over the 19-7 Langley Blaze. In that game, Trueblood struck out four and scattered just three hits over seven innings of work. “That was a great win for us. It was the first time all season where everything really came together – pitching, hitting, everything,” said White Rock coach Russ Smithson. “Our last three games have been really good, and Josh and Nathan have just been great for us. It really helps the rest of the guys to know that they only have to put up a couple of runs, and they’ll still have a chance to win the game.” Larsen has a 4-3 win-lost record this season, and is among the league leaders in strikeouts, earned-run average and innings pitched. Trueblood, who joined the team

last month after his Blaine High School season ended, is 1-0 with two saves and an ERA of 0.51. “Nathan’s just jumped right in and picked up where he left off last year with the Junior Tritons,” Smithson said. “He’s been super valuable for us. He’s not a real hard thrower, but he just knows how to get guys out – he’s very smart on the mound.” Josh Sigurdson – who splits his time between centre field and the infield – has also been impressive in the last week, Smithson said. Sigurdson is among the league leaders in batting average with a .344 mark, and has 20 stolen bases – tops in the PBL by five. He went 1-for-4 against the Blaze Tuesday, with a single and a stolen base. “Josh is a real dangerous threat, and has been very good the last few games,” Smithson said. “Whenever

he gets on base, he’s pretty much a lock to steal second – every single is basically a double, and he really gets into the head of the opposing pitcher.” The Tritons are in the midst of a busy schedule, as previously rainedout games are made up. Prior to last weekend’s doubleheader against Vancouver, the team hadn’t played a PBL game since May 22, although they did spend the U.S. Memorial Day weekend at the Triple Crown Tournament in Washington. “It’s been a long wait between games lately – it feels like forever sometimes,” Smithson said. “We were eight games behind (after the Triple Crown tournament), so we’ve got a pretty intense schedule coming up.” White Rock played Wednesday night against the Coquitlam Reds, and have four games this weekend – two Saturday at home against

the North Shore Twins, and two Sunday in Abbotsford against the Cardinals. They also played next Tuesday and Thursday, against the Twins and Reds, respectively.

MLB Draft A handful of PBL players were selected in the Major League Baseball draft earlier this week, led by Langley Blaze pitcher Tom Robson, who was selected by the Toronto Blue Jays in the fourth round. Robson, a Ladner resident who attends Delta Secondary, was the first Canadian chosen in the annual draft. He’s spent the past few weeks with Canada’s junior national team in the Dominican Republic, along with two Blaze teammates, Dustin Houlse and Justin Atkinson, both of whom were also drafted this week, by the Milwaukee Brewers and Jays, respectively.

STELCER, Brenda 1958 - 2011 Mother, sister, daughter, grandmother, friend and healer taken from us too soon after losing a long but brave battle with cancer. She was loved and will be missed greatly by many! Please join us for a celebration of Brenda’s life on June 17th between 4:30 pm and 10pm at Beecher Hall, Crescent Beach.

TURNER, Constance Gwendolyn (nee Willan) Born July 15, 1914 With great sadness we announce that our dear Connie, Mom and Grandma passed away on April 8, 2011 in Peace Arch Hospice. Born to Gerald & Eva (nee MacKenzie) at Erskine, AB. She had three siblings - Jean, Eileen & Jackie. The biggest influence of Connie’s life was losing her mother when she was twelve. Happy memories were of the farm, riding Daisy, running free, helping her Dad and of Buffalo Lake and the dance hall her Dad ran. She married her beloved Al in Toronto, 1941 & had a long & happy marriage settling in Edmonton & retiring to White Rock in 1972. Al passed away May ‘06 & baby Keith in 1953. Connie’s enthusiasm, optimism, strength & perseverance were incredible. She was very peppy & had a bright mind. She did her word “Jumble” & “Circles” daily. She had a way of making anything fun & made the best of everything. Above all Connie loved life & her precious family, friends, home, books & food! Forever loved & missed by her beloved daughter & grandson, Sharon and Sam. As well, son John & family, sisters-in-law Mary, Hazel & Kay, their families, several cousins on Connie’s side, many good friends & special friends Ann & Gail. A huge number of people helped Connie to live a wonderful quality of life these last years. We thank you all! Recently, special thanks to my dear friend Susan, Dr. John O’Brien, the doctors, nurses & volunteers Mom saw at hospice & all her home support aides at home. Love is not changed by death And nothing is lost And all in the end is harvest!
