Expenses necessary to do a good job for constituents, MP says

Hiebert says he would welcome audit Alex Browne Staff Reporter

Conservative MP Russ Hiebert is continuing to fight a media firestorm unleashed by news that his expenses were the second highest for an MP in Canada in 2008-2009. Hiebert (South Surrey-White RockCloverdale) has defended his budget for MP Russ Hiebert that fiscal year on grounds that travel costs had pushed the figure to $637,093,

second only to Manitoba MP Steven Fletcher (a quadriplegic with special expenses in fulfilling his duties). In a Black Press poll of Surrey MPs, all four said they would welcome an audit. Hiebert’s expenses have been widely reported and have been a steady topic on open-line radio programs. He said by email earlier this week that he and his wife, Andrea, want to keep their family together (they are parents

of two young girls), and this means they travel together the weeks Parliament is in session. In answer to further questions from the Peace Arch News, Hiebert responded by email Wednesday, holding to the line that his expenses are necessary for him to do a good job for his constituents, and that costs incurred are within House Of Commons guidelines and protocol. “I booked my travel through the

House of Commons’ travel service,” he wrote. “They work to get the best possible prices from the airlines.” Hiebert also said his travel expenses will vary year-to-year based mainly on the number of weeks the House of Commons is in session. At press time, Hiebert’s office was not able to provide a detailed breakdown of his travel expenses for 2008-2009. see page 4

Most days, Dr. Steve Larigakis can be seen cycling between his home and South Surrey office, logging 12 kilometres each way. It’s been his preferred mode of transportation when commuting to work for the past 10 years. “It’s just a lot of fun, and it’s good exercise without impacting seriously on one’s knees and joints,” he said. Larigakis turned to cycling 15 years ago, after he developed knee problems from his participation in soccer and other team sports. While he has competed in a few races, he considers himself a recreational road and mountain biker, riding to and from work during the week and joining his cycling club on Saturdays. Now, with Bike to Work Week and Bike to School Week slated to begin Monday, Larigakis hopes to encourage others to give up their cars and opt for a bicycle instead. He has joined two local teams registered with Bike to Work Week, including one comprising Peace Arch Hospital staff. The groups have signed up on the Vancouver Area Cycling Coalition’s website, where they can track their distance travelled, the greenhouse gas emissions they have saved by cycling and the calories they have burned.

Dr. Steve Larigakis checks on six-year-old Brody Burrell’s ear after cycling to his South Surrey workplace. Last year, Metro Vancouver cyclists logged more than a million kilometres on the site, and this year’s event is expected to draw more than 8,000 bike riders and 1,000 workplace teams. Larigakis said he hopes the initiatives engage individuals as well as workplace teams. Biking may not be an option for everyone – such as those who live

too close or far from the office. Larigakis suggested these people consider walking or using transit. “We’re encouraging people to take at least one day out of that week to take an alternative mode of transportation,” he said, noting that with more cyclists, the city will be encouraged to build adequate bike paths, and motorists will become more

accustomed to sharing the road. Larigakis noted most households have a bicycle. For some, it may be a matter of just dusting it off, fixing a flat and planning a tuneup. “Biking is a safe and healthy way to get around and I’d encourage people to give it a try.” For more information, visit biketoworkmetrovan.ca or biketoschoolmetrovan.ca

A former planner with the City of Surrey continues to be the target of an RCMP investigation regarding allegations of defrauding the city. The allegations came to light earlier this year when someone outside of city hall reported the irregularities to authorities. The area planner was terminated “with cause,” but Mayor Dianne Watts would not say Thursday what that cause was. Several developers are also being interviewed in the investigation. “Anyone involved in this situation is being spoken to by the RCMP,” Watts said. “They’re reviewing some of the files this individual has worked on and then they are speaking to all the people who were involved.” She would only say the amount of money in question is “significant.” Watts noted the planner in question has been with the city for some time, and that a KPMG audit will likely stretch back to the early days of the planner’s employment. After that, it will likely cover other area planners, then everyone in the planning department. The city will also address how transactions are undertaken within the city to ensure similar problems don’t occur in the future. More details will be made available if and when charges are laid.

certain segment of society is not well represented in Ottawa. Most MPs are past the age of 40. They come from a generational mindset that is very different than the one occupied by younger people. For example, the tax burden on young people is far higher than it ever was on previous generations. Many of them have difficulty getting good jobs, and if they do manage that, it often means tens of thousands in student debts. They must juggle paying taxes and debts with the added burden of very high homeownership costs. Soon they will be paying HST on many previously exempt items, adding to the pressure on their bottom line. The voices of that generation need to be heard in the House of Commons, and young voices from B.C. are an important part of the mix. However, Hiebert should make more effort to see if he can reduce his expenses in other areas, and allow for the added family travel. Taxpayers deserve to have their money treated with care, and the fact is that most employers would not pay additional expenses so that families can spend more time together. Hiebert’s devotion to his family is commendable, but he also needs to reduce his expenses to a level that is more in line with other MPs. Frank Bucholtz writes Fridays for the Peace Arch News. He is the editor of the Langley Times.

Mayor joins businesses’ bid for vote

Alex Browne Staff Reporter

Looking for parking on Marine Drive on West Beach this spring and summer? Follow the signs with the stylized orange ‘P’ – denoting valet parking. The program, spearheaded by Cielo’s restaurant owner Matthew Hale and co-operated by independent businessman Hugh Smith, started up last Friday. And it is to be in service every night of the week from 4:30 p.m. to 12:30 a.m. until late October, providing some relief from overcrowded – and expensive – public lots on the waterfront. And Smith, who said the price per evening for patrons of any Marine Drive establishment is $12, believes it’s a livable option for people who would be paying $3 an hour in the public lots anyway, under White Rock’s new rates. For restaurant staff working on Marine, it’s an even more affordable option – $5 per evening. “When you’re making $8.50 per hour before taxes, $3 per hour for parking is a big deal,” said Smith. The program has the backing of area restaurants, with the city and White Rock BIA as co-sponsors. A recently married family man, Smith was looking for a venture that could keep him closer to home this summer – and the valet parking project seemed tailor-made. “I live at the beach right behind Cielo’s… and I know parking has been a problem for a long time,” he added, noting that he had observed the pilot valet parking program pioneered by Hale two years ago. “When pay parking hit $3, I said to Matt, ‘will you be doing it again?’ But he’s got his hands kind of full,

Hugh Smith has joined forces with restaurateur Matthew Hale to provide valet service on the waterfront. so he said ‘if you want to run it, we can partner up on it.’ “It’s great to be involved in this and great that it has city and BIA support. I’ve been passionate about the city since I moved here in 1999.” The city has made available two parking spots on Martin Street near Victoria Avenue for the program, which is signed by sandwich boards on Martin Street, and city signs on Marine Drive. Users of the program just have to pull in at one of the spaces, where they receive a valet parking chit and turn over their vehicle keys. “Then one of our two drivers runs it up the hill to one of the parking spaces we’ve negotiated at private locations and business lots that aren’t being used in the evening.”

Smith said patrons can ask at whichever Marine Drive restaurant they choose about valet parking discounts. “We sell coupons to some of them, which they may give to customers for a $3 or $4 discount.” At the end of the evening, patrons can telephone the number on the parking chit, which will give drivers a chance to deliver cars down the hill before they even leave the restaurant, to avoid longer waits at Martin Street. “We’re trying to make this a fiveminute service,” said Smith. “We understand the value to this is being quick and timely.” Smith noted drivers operating the program are fully insured, experienced and with clean driving records. “They’re the same drivers who

did the pilot program, and that ran without an accident or any problems or complaints,” he said. Smith said he has met with 15 Marine Drive restaurateurs and all are very supportive of the program, which benefits them equally. “The whole beach feel has to be a positive one,” he said. “It’s a foundational thing, just like with a building. Once we get the patrons down there, and get them parked, everything settles from there. It’s up to the businesses’ own marketing to get customers in their restaurants. “Getting the backing of White Rock council is a positive thing. The brand here is not as strong as it could be, and parking has been a problem, but this is a great creative way to help solve it. White Rock is open for business.”

White Rock Mayor Catherine Ferguson is one of eight B.C. mayors and councillors to endorse the return of the business vote in local government elections. According to the Canadian Federation of Independent Business, restoring the business vote is about creating a stronger incentive to listen to the concerns of business, which are different from residents’ concerns at the municipal level. “I have to commend these municipal Catherine Ferguson mayor representatives that have made a very personal commitment to restore representation to their local business community,” CFIB’s Brian Bonney said in a release. White Rock Business Improvement Association directors are also endorsing the return of the vote, stating in a release that the initiative is important for small- and mediumsized business to be heard by local government. “White Rock has a small tax base and currently businesses are paying three times as much as residences are paying,” the release states. “Therefore, it is imperative for maintaining an affordable tax base for local residences that small business continue to prosper and grow. By having a voice at election time, businesses can hopefully express their concerns to council – and be heard.” Ferguson could not be reached for comment by press time. – Hannah Sutherland

The women, who hailed from Burnaby, Richmond and Vancouver, were ordered to appear in court in connection with the illegal harvest.

Jensen said. Penalties for first offences can also include fishing prohibitions and even vehicle forfeiture. Fishery officer Dave Clattenburg said one man who pleaded guilty to harvesting approximately 500 pounds of Manila clams from Blackie Spit in July 2008 was fined $10,000 in Surrey Provincial Court. Abbotsford resident Khai Tran, 34, spent 30 days in jail after he told the judge he couldn’t afford the penalty, Clattenburg said. The judge also ordered that a minivan seized at the time of the bust be forfeited. Clattenburg and Jensen said one challenge in tackling the problem is people don’t believe the bivalves are contaminated. Another is that many people who aren’t involved in the harvesting don’t understand how it could impact them; that it could end up on their own dinner plate, toxins and all. They encouraged anyone spotting questionable activity on the local beaches to call the DFO 24-hour hotline at 604-666-3500 or toll-free at 1-800-465-4336. Officers will drop what they are doing to deal with the priority calls, they said.

Cadman’s expense bill amounted to $263,016 for the year, but she had only been in office 5½ months at the time the figures were tallied. The all-party Board of Internal Economy, charged with overseeing House spending, turned down Fraser’s request, but, following outcry from the public and media, the Conservative government has said it plans to introduce a proposal ensuring greater transparency in parliamentary spending. It is unclear, however, whether that would include audit procedures. Hiebert said in an email that he is in favour of an audit. “With regard to this whole issue with… MP expenses, I am keen to see it resolved in a way that increases transparency,” Hiebert wrote. “I believe all MPs want Canadians to have the confidence that their dollars are being well-spent.” Dhaliwal, Grewal and Cadman voiced support this week for an audit. “If we can make improvements or achieve efficiencies, I am all in favour of an audit by the auditor general,” Dhaliwal told Black Press. “We are transparent and have nothing to hide,” Grewal offered. “If that means opening the books to the auditor general, be it so.” “I have always fought for accountability… and welcome any initiatives to improve the process,” Cadman said. – with files from Kevin Diakiw

It can also include staff travel for a training session in Ottawa – usually not more than once per year – plus other travel by Hiebert in Canada on parliamentary business, which in 2008-2009 included two caucus meetings and a Conservative party convention in Winnipeg. In addition to airfare, travel costs also include taxi fare to and from airports and Parliament Hill. Asked about printing and telephone costs, which were higher than other B.C. MPs ($81,888 on printing and $23,148 for telephone service in fiscal 2008-2009), Hiebert said it was again a matter of fulfilling his duties. “I work hard to keep in touch with constituents and find out what they are thinking, and my expenses for communications reflect that commitment,” he wrote. “Again, the House of Commons endeavours to obtain the best prices for paper, ink, longdistance services and equipment for the use of MPs.” The issue of MP expenses became a hot topic after federal auditor general Sheila Fraser had asked to perform an audit on some $533 million in annual spending by the House of Commons – a review that would include assessment of value for money and the costs incurred by sitting MPs.

editorial

But what has Hiebert done? t would be uncharitable not to spare some sympathy for Russ Hiebert. The beleaguered South Surrey-White Rock-Cloverdale MP began his week thinking he was defending himself against a single news item, that listed him as one of Canada’s costliest MPs, by pointing out this was to allow his family to fly with him to Ottawa. By week’s end, he’s found himself turned into a poster-boy for government waste. Taking Hiebert’s explanation at face value, it’s a legitimate – if arguable – position. Do we really want our family-aged representatives to risk separation from their children to do our time-intensive bidding half-way across the country? But before we ponder this, we must ask whether Hiebert is not being miserly with his explanation. Fact is, travel is only one facet of our MP’s expenses that are higher than average. Printing and telephone expenses are both excessive, which he defended later in the week – via the shielded forum of email, naturally – as the cost of communicating with his constituents. As well, Hiebert justified his rankings by noting both that the report was old and that his travel costs are for a family of four, conveniently sidestepping that during the period in question – the 2008-’09 fiscal year – the Hieberts were merely a family of three, making us that much more incredulous about the mounting comparative costs. What is particularly interesting is the number of people who have said that they would be far less critical if they felt they were getting something of value for their tax money in their representative in Ottawa. Instead, they are getting a party loyalist whose accomplishments are somewhat intangible. While it could be argued Hiebert has done no real damage as a member of Parliament, even his most fervent supporters must be asking what he has succeeded in actually doing in this Conservative-friendly constituency that couldn’t be accomplished by any yes-man or yeswoman. (Yes, we appreciate any grant money to come our way; and yes, we deserve it.) By most accounts, Hiebert seems a pleasant person. He shows dedication to his causes, is quick to offer a kind word and his enthusiasm for civil niceties is to be admired. Indeed, Hiebert makes it difficult not to sympathize with him. Yet, after years of listening to his partisan rhetoric about curbing government spending, it is more difficult to support him.

59 responding case or dog whistle – have to be encased in hermetically sealed, blast-resistant plastic? Twenty-four pieces for a doll set (made of plastic, by the way) are all fastened in another piece of plastic – individually moulded and secured. That’s 24 opportunities to visit the emergency room. Then there’s the stuff that comes in a blister pack inside a cardboard box. What’s the matter with just the box? I mean, we’re not dealing with nuclear waste here. My particular peeve… spinach. Yes – the green, leafy stuff that’s good for you – in a non-biodegradable plastic container. Even more ridiculous? Organic foods that come in non-biodegradable plastic containers. Think about that. You want good, healthy produce from Mom Nature, and then you trash her with the packaging. Come on, people. We’re starting to cotton on to the cloth grocery bag concept. Now we have to stand up and tell companies to quit with the plastic. This junk didn’t exist 20 years ago, and we got along just fine. We bought six screws when we needed six screws, not 10 in a blister pack. We paid for them and put them in a pocket, or maybe a paper bag. Crude, simple, low-tech. Planetfriendly. Old tricks still work. Andrew Holota is the editor of the Abbotsford News, sister paper to the Peace Arch News.

Limited empathy

of note

Editor: Re: MP defends expense ranking as family matter, May 26. Backbench MP Russ Hiebert was elected with the mandate to fight government waste. The South Surrey-White RockCloverdale MP turns out to be one of the biggest spenders in Parliament, spending over $637,000 – $214,000 of that in travel. It is time the auditor general resets the guidelines and scrutinizes MPs’ spending. We want detailed expense accounts made public. Russ piously explains he brings his family along as he is committed to keeping his family together. We have just gone through a difficult recession, and many Canadians have had to struggle, pinch pennies and lower their lifestyles. As a taxpayer I feel Hiebert’s pious explanation is a slap in the face. Lorraine Pfortmueller, Surrey

Elitist attitude An open letter to MP Russ Hiebert. It saddened me to learn of your justification for charging taxpayers for you and your wife’s personal decisions regarding family matters. Whilst it may be laudable for you to be able to see your wife and children on a daily basis, it would be much more morally agreeable if this decision was afforded on your nickel, not mine. Yes, you may have a young family, but you chose to be parachuted into this riding. You chose to seek election knowing that the position would require time in Ottawa and, for most members of Parliament, time away from family. Whilst you feel an entitlement of taxpayer coverage for your family, you also blatantly suggest daycare services should not be provided for those who require the same in order to care for their families. Does this not suggest a doublestandard or, at the very least, an elitist attitude that your family situation is more important than that of other Canadian families? Christina MacLellan, White Rock

Job requirement The media reports that MP Russ Hiebert flies his family back and forth between here and Ottawa, his place of employment. My records show that for 21 years, I was away from home an average of 162 days and nights, logging 102 flights worldwide each year conducting business for Canada. Thousands of others have the same life; no private company pays weekly travel expenses for family members. What is the difference between an MP and a senior manager of a company directly responsible for hundreds of jobs and Canada’s balance of payments? I presume Hiebert knew what was expected of him when he accepted the nomination. Or are the travel privileges part of a new policy of “Canada’s New Government?” Wolfgang Schmitz, White Rock

The Hiebert family on election night 2008, during the fiscal year in which the MP reported $637,093 in expenses.

Submit your bills I, like most South Surrey-White Rock constituents, was shocked to learn our local MP, Russ Hiebert, last year had the second highest travel and constituency expenses in the country of $637,000. This is in a geographically small riding. No wonder the MPs of all stripes have banded together to scuttle the auditor general from examining their expense claims. Mr. Hiebert, I voted for you and now it is time for you to be transparent. Take a lead and submit all your expenses to the Peace Arch News so we can all have a look at where $637,000 of taxpayers’ money was spent or squandered. Don Hardie, Surrey

15 minutes of infamy It is human nature to want to be the best – to want to be top of the heap, head of the class, king of the hill. Unfortunately, sometimes being on top is the worst place to be. Our local MP, Russ Hiebert, is case in point. He’s absolutely the best at spending our tax dollars, and by doing so managed to put our constituency prominently into the papers. Wow! Our name is now all over the country and we have had our 15 minutes of fame. Hiebert has managed to spend more than $600,000, all the while not having a cabinet post or any particular function in Parliament that would legitimize these expenses. What is he spending money on? Taking his family to Ottawa is costly – but even that would not account for spending almost $400,000 more than the prime minister. Personally, I could have done without this dubious honour of having a spendthrifty MP, who, when running for office, proclaimed to be able to bring change and honesty to Parliament. I suggest his board have a serious

chat with their MP. This is a Conservative stronghold, but going into the next election with Hiebert at the helm might be risky business. Edie Williams, Surrey

Expenses add up An open letter to MP Russ Hiebert. It is with the utmost pride I’ve learned that in the 2008-’09 fiscal year, you generated the second highest expenses in all of Canada among MPs, and were tops in B.C. I am very grateful that you have spent so much of our money while supporting our local economy. However, in these times of fiscal restraint, I fear you might lose sleep over how to make do with less, just like the rest of us. I noticed you spent $81,888 in “printing,” so I respectfully suggest that on your next trip to the print shop, you can order one less of those unsolicited letters to your constituents. And I’ll see if I can’t scare up something else with which to line my birdcage. I realize it’s a little thing, but given how many letters you send, I’m sure it’ll add up. Given the totals from the last fiscal year, it already has. S.K. Cheung, Surrey

Parachuted Conservative Russ Hiebert, whatever could you have been doing for the constituents to warrant such huge expenses? The media says your staff says it is trips within Canada. Is that why no one ever sees you here? Is that why you won’t meet with constituents and fear them so much you close your office when they show up? How is this the taxpayer’s best use of time, money and behaviour? I see on the government website you were in the house and voted 29 times on legislation for each term. Wow! It’s time local voters woke up to the parachuted Conservative that continues to be imposed on them. What kind of representation have we endured since 2004? Should we

taxpayers be paying for your tourist jaunts and evangelical speaking tours on behalf of the partisan interests of Prime Minister Stephen Harper? Are you a part of the Cons’ efforts to reshape the country’s social, cultural and even scientific policies, driven by ideology and a belief that Canada has a biblically ordained role to play in the final days before Armageddon? Pat Petrala, White Rock

Excessive spending It is indeed unfortunate Russ Hiebert has to be B.C.’s MP with the largest expense account. Hiebert has oft preached government restraint and, along with Conservative colleagues, seen government accountability as a key issue during election campaigns. The life of an MP is demanding. It is laudable for Hiebert and his wife to make a conscious effort at maintaining their marriage and parental requirements. That being said, I do not see why, especially in this economic climate, the taxpayer has to pay for his familial demands. Simply because this excessive spending falls under the normal guidelines of costs incurred does not excuse the hypocrisy of preaching one message and living out another. Mike Schouten, South Surrey Christian Heritage Party candidate

Claim to fame What has MP Russ Hiebert done to spend more than $637,000 of our money in a 12-month period? An aide has said he travels back to his constituency every weekend, yet we never see him. He is not available when we want to pose questions to him, closing his office at the first sign of having to face a group. He leads all MPs in spending, except a Manitoba MP who needs special arrangements because he is quadriplegic. Some claim to fame. Terry Garvey, Surrey

Smiles from Shore2Shore Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

White Rock firefighter Bira Bindra has seen the impact Variety the Children’s Charity can have. It made his daughter smile. Ramneek was just five years old when she was struck by a debilitating stroke in March 2002, after contracting an infection through a dental procedure. The stroke took her from being a healthy, energetic and athletic child to the brink of death. Doctors at the time told Ramneek’s parents she wouldn’t survive. “It was a very difficult time for our family, very difficult,” Bindra said this week. “You want to take their place, but you can’t.” Eight years later, as Bindra helps ready the fire crew for its biggest fundraiser ever – Shore2Shore, a 6,800-kilometre, cross-Canada bike relay – he is thrilled the funds raised by the effort will benefit Variety. “When (fellow firefighters) told me that they had chosen Variety Club, I was really excited about it,” he said. “I know what they do for a lot of kids in the province.” The organization provided Ramneek with a customized tricycle that enabled the youngster to ride with her friends. It came after a staff member at Sunny Hill Health Centre for Children noticed Ramneek’s love of the bike during her rehabilitation,

School jobs combined Payroll, vacation and substitute-teacher scheduling are being amalgamated in Surrey and B.C.’s three other largest school districts, in the first step of a province-wide project. Education Minister Margaret Macdiarmid said Thursday Kamloops-Thompson, Vancouver and North Vancouver were also selected because together with Surrey they represent nearly one-third of B.C.’s public school students. Macdiarmid said the project will produce savings. The savings will go back into the classroom, she said, but it is too soon to tell what savings will be had and what jobs will be gained and lost. “What we do know is government’s done this in other areas, sharing services, and they’ve saved on the order of 10 to 15 per cent,” Macdiarmid said. “The current cost estimated for the school districts is about $70 million, and so if we saved the minimum, it would be on the order of $7 million.” – Tom Fletcher

Firefighters Eric Kameka (left) and Bira Bindra show Bindra’s daughter Ramneek one of the bikes firefighters will ride. and applied to Variety on behalf of the family for a bike she could use at home. “It was completely fitted for her,” Bindra said. “For some people, it may sound like a small thing, but to us, it was huge. Just to see the smile on her face.” White Rock firefighters hope Shore2Shore will raise $100,000. With four months to go before the September ride, they are onethird of the way to their goal. Bindra was to be one of eight White Rock firefighters riding in Shore2Shore, but due to a knee injury has had to step back from the full ride. He is backing the effort by covering shifts at the fire hall during the team’s two-week journey, and is prepared to jump in should one of

the other riders – Eric Kameka, James Davison, Mike Passas, Al McNabb, Cordell Fulton, Evan Bird, Patrick Ryan or former White Rock auxiliary firefighter Mike Fraser – be forced to pull out. Bindra is not the only firefighter who can relate to the cause. Davison’s niece was helped by Variety; and Kameka spent a lot of his own childhood in hospital. “I was never in need of any care like that from Variety, but I experienced and spent time with kids that did,” Kameka said. The team launched the ride officially Wednesday at the Pacific Avenue fire hall. For more information on Shore2Shore, visit www.wrfrcharity. blogspot.com

Accused in stabbing makes appearance Dan Ferguson Black Press

The 18-year-old Surrey woman accused of killing another Surrey teenager at a Vancouver house party made a brief court appearance Wednesday morning in Vancouver Provincial Court. Katey Renieta Gonzales said nothing during the few minutes she stood in the prisoner’s box, long enough for her lawyer and the prosecutor to set a date for her next court appearance early next month. Gonzales is a tiny, round-faced woman, 5’1” in height. Her dark hair was pulled up in a knot and she was wearing a loose grey T-shirt. A number of anxious-looking relatives were in the visitor’s gallery for her first court appearance since she

turned herself into police. Gonzales is charged with seconddegree murder in the May 21 stabbing death of Angela Qiu, 17. Qiu was found lying unconscious on the sidewalk near Knight Street and East 51 Avenue around 1 a.m. suffering from multiple stab wounds. She was rushed to hospital but died of her injuries shortly after. Another girl, 16, had also been wounded. She was taken to hospital, where she was treated and released. Vancouver police said the two were stabbed after a fight broke out with another girl at a party in a nearby basement suite. About 40 drunken teens were found in the rental home, police said. It is believed no adults were at the residence when the party was happening.

They’re captured in the photo collage arranged under the glass counter near the entrance of Rae-Cene’s, as well as written in a notebook filled with farewell messages from the store’s many loyal customers. And they’re a part of the business McMillan, 66, will be able to take with her after closing its doors at the end of the month. “It’s a happy-sad ending,” she said earlier this week, when there were just a few racks of clothes left in the otherwise empty shop.

Spin-a-thon set for Elgin A 12-hour spin-athon to raise money for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation takes place June 2 at Elgin Park Secondary. The second annual event â&#x20AC;&#x201C; organized by EPSâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; student leadership team â&#x20AC;&#x201C; is hoped to raise $40,000 for the cause. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s led by Grayden Quinn, a Grade 12 student at Elgin whose brother, Mason, has juvenile (Type 1) diabetes, a chronic disease in which the pancreas does not produce the lifesustaining hormone, insulin. Type 1 diabetes must be managed 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Health complications can include kidney failure, blindness, amputation, stroke, heart attack and reduced life expectancy. Mason is one of eight EPS students living with the condition. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have a real drive to do something that moves towards a cure and helps my brother live a normal life,â&#x20AC;? Grayden Quinn said in a statement. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I want my brother to be free from the worry, the needles, the checking and the constant monitoring that characterizes every day.â&#x20AC;? The spin-a-thon was inspired by Cyclebetes, an event that was founded in 2007 after a Vancouver father

promised his daughter he would do everything in his power to find a cure for her Type 1 diabetes before she turns 18. That same year, in support of this goal, Team H2V cycled 6,000 kilometres over eight days to raise money for JDRF. As of last week, 51 teams â&#x20AC;&#x201C; including families whose children were recently diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes â&#x20AC;&#x201C; had signed up for the June 2 Elgin Park Cyclebetes Spina-Thon. The day, with bands, singers, contests, prizes, karaoke and a DJ, challenges teams of up to 12 riders to pedal a stationary bike for the cause. The event will also feature a community barbecue sponsored by Choices Markets. The top fundraiser will win two tickets to anywhere Air Canada flies in North America; the top fundraising team will win a three-hour limo ride. Prizes will also be awarded for the bestdressed team, the most original team and the best costumes. To register, contact Grayden Quinn at grayden.quinn@ hotmail.com or 604538-8790. Anyone interested in donating prizes or sponsoring the event may contact Sue Janzen at janzen_s@sd36.bc.ca

Are you looking for the right person to help with the relocation of your home or your parents’ home?

Group launches new vision The newly revised White Rock/Surrey chapter of Canadian Association of Retired Persons launched with a wine and cheese evening this month at Rotary Fieldhouse. Special guest was Susan Eng, vice president of advocacy for the national organization, who spoke May 19 on pension reform and how CARP members can affect change in the country. After about a year in inactivity, the local chapter – comprised of approximately 1,500 members – elected a new board, and is now looking to raise its profile, encourage new membership and promote the association’s “new vision of aging in Canada.” For more information on becoming a member, contact April Lewis at 604-5368717 or aprillewis@telus.net or visit www. carp.ca

Who can you trust and what supports that trust?

TRAVEL & CRUISES

Large-Ship Cruises to Antarctica? By Nicky Armstrong - Cruise Holidays of White Rock The number of large ships that will cruise the waters off Antarctica may be limited in the future, making now the perfect time to book a cruise to Antarctica during the upcoming December 2010-February 2011 high season. Antarctica’s glacial beauty can be intimidating, but it is actually a fragile ecosystem. To help protect the White Continent and its wildlife, the International Maritime Organization (IMO) passed a rule last year that will ban the use or carrying of heavy fuel oils – the type usually used by large cruise ships – in Antarctic waters. The idea is that this will remove even the possibility of a harmful spill of heavy fuel oil into the sea. Recently, the IMO set a date for the new rule to take effect: August 21, 2011. That means the coming Antarctic cruise season may be the last for some large ships (in general, those that carry more than 500 passengers).

Antarctica Cruise ships will still be allowed to use marine gas oil and marine diesel oil in Antarctic waters, which are already used by most of the smaller ships that cruise to the Antarctic. These ships often get closer to the continent than large ships can – some are even able to use Zodiac boat tenders to give guests the thrill of stepping

onto Antarctic ice. However, these smaller ships can lack the range of comforts and amenities that many leisure cruise travellers expect. Passengers on larger ships are able to see the scenic wonders of Antarctica – sparkling cliffs of ice, drifting icebergs, deep blue waters and steadfast penguins,

Last Chance to Sail Antarctica?

to name a few – while enjoying the greater variety of accommodations, dining and entertainment options that larger ships can provide. Cruise lines that have Antarctic cruises planned for the coming season include Celebrity Cruises, Crystal Cruises, Holland America Line, Princess Cruises, Regent Seven Seas Cruises and Silversea Cruises. Of these lines, Crystal and Regent Seven Seas have announced that 2010-2011 will be their last Antarctic cruise season, while Holland America has announced that it will continue to sail in Antarctica beyond 2011. In addition, Azamara Club Cruises’ Journey, a mid-size ship that carries 700 passengers, plans to enter Antarctic waters for the ﬁrst time in late 2011. To take advantage of the wide selection of ships and itineraries available for the upcoming Antarctic cruise season, talk with your travel professional at Cruise Holidays of White Rock. 604-531-3307

It is with great pleasure that Peace Arch Dental Centre welcomes Dr. Michael Layton. Dr. Layton will be taking over as owner of the general dental practice of Dr. Joseph McIvor. As someone who grew up in White Rock, and having practiced locally for the past three years, Dr. Layton is excited to proceed with his career and watch his family grow up in this community. He is also an avid basketball fan, coaching for the YMCA 6/7 division for the past three years. “I’ve been involved in sports for many years and have seen a lot of trauma to the face and teeth. I recommend an athletic mouthguard,” he remarks. Dr. Layton, who prefers to be known as Michael, offers these services to all his patients, and hopes to prevent many of the dental issues that patients invariably will stumble upon. “The best dentistry is preventative dentistry. I believe prevention is the way to go.” As a graduate of the University of Washington, Dr. Layton will continue general preventative dental services to Dr. McIvor’s existing patients as well as expanded dental services including, orthodontics and implants. “We hope to continue to provide the type of exceptional care that Dr. McIvor provided for close to 40 years in this area, along with welcoming the new generation to our beautiful community.” Dr. Layton is currently accepting new patients, including children, and looks forward to providing excellent dental care, while having a little fun along the way.

non-toxic to vertebrates and many beneficial arthropods it is a broad spectrum insecticide but should be applied only by experienced operators. Also quite effective are all the pyrethrin-based formulations. (Pyrethrin is the active component of pyrethrum which is secreted by several flowers in the chrysanthemum family.) Neem oil acts against leafchewing insects while rotenone is another broad spectrum agent, and insecticidal soaps can be used against soft-bodied pests. Growing garlic alongside roses deters aphids, and alternating rows of onions with carrots will protect the latter against carrot fly. This is far from an exhaustive list, but will be enough to show that banning artificial pesticides need not lead to failing gardens. One other powerful defence is to keep plants in good health and growing vigorously – rich soil, appropriate watering and fertilizing to suit soil conditions and plant requirements. Happy gardening!

Professionals fessionals being different individuals find it difficult to digest some food.

When we eat food as a part of normal digestion, the food chewed is passed on via the food pipe or esophagus to the stomach for further digestion aided by the acidic juices present in the stomach. When these acidic juices flow back to the esophagus it causes a burning sensation in the centre of the chest, also called heartburn, leading to the phenomenon causing acid reflux.

As we have mentioned earlier, its very dangerous to leave the acid reflux attack unchecked and without any treatment, hence identifying the acid reflux symptoms early is a must. Because in due course, this may result into erosion of esophageal lining called Barrett’s Esophagus which further leads to esophageal cancer. Though the acid reflux can be treated medically, it only masks the symptoms of acid reflux attack and not necessarily cures the disease. We need to find more natural methods of treating and curing this disease. We use acupuncture and Chinese herb medicine effectively as a natural treatment method for treating acid reflux condition. By treating stress and adjusting stomach, liver and spleen, acupuncture can heal acid reflux attack very well. Katarina Liao has more than 20 years experience in treating acid reflux by using acupuncture and Chinese herb in Canada and Europe.

Brightening lives one song at a time Alex Browne

Arts Reporter

iel Magis is a young singer with a wide vocal range – and just as wide a range of material. Both will be showcased at his concert this weekend at South Surrey’s Good Shepherd Church (May 30, 3 p.m., 2250 150 St.). The 21-year-old classical voice major at Douglas College has been gifted with vocal chords that can traverse the registers from baritone to high tenor. That comes in useful as a member of Star of the Sea parish’s Stella Maris Choir, directed by Trudy Stammer, and travelled with the choir on its tour of Germany last year. The choir will share the stage with him on Sunday, as well as the parish’s Schola Cantorum girls choir. “This is my first solo concert – I’m very excited, but nervous at the same time,” Magis said. “I’m trying not only to feature myself, but also some great guest performers.” He added the lineup will also include 19-year-old local singer-songwriter Anna Boots (also a member of Stella Maris), acclaimed pianist-accompanist Trevor Hoffmann and 15-year-old violinist Emma Bazinet. And the repertoire will include everything from Josh Groban originals (Remember When It Rained, Too Rare You Are, When You Say You Love Me and You Raise Me Up) to Andrews Lloyd Webber’s Pie Jesu (which he will sing with Boots) and pieces by early 20th century British art song writer Roger Quilter – even Moses Hogan’s

Singer Kiel Magis performs with special guests this Sunday at Good Shepherd Church. foot-stomping Every Time I Feel The Spirit, which Magis will perform with Stella Maris. “If I had to describe my range I’d say the word is versatile,” Magis said. “I’ve sung bass with Stella Maris, but in my head voice I can go pretty high and still have a pretty good quality of sound.” But Magis – who was born in New Westminster, but spent most of his formative years in Richmond – said his focus is not simply his voice.

“The reason for me doing this concert is not to get popular, or get my message out, but because music is something that can brighten someone’s life. You can change someone’s life with one song – music can move mountains.” Music more than made a difference to his own life, he said. “It is my life.” Magis’ mother is also a gifted singer, and through her church musical circles, he

was exposed to a wide range of sacred and secular music at a young age. It gave him an understanding of the choral idiom and laid the foundation for his fondness for it, he said. “Other music can’t compare with its richness and depth – it brings everyone together with one purpose.” But he admits he was “a little bit rebellious” about music and choral singing when he reached St. Patrick’s Secondary. That all changed when he joined school music director Tony Araujo’s chamber choir in Grade 12 – the same time he came to a realization of his own vocal gifts. “Tony Araujo is the musician who pushed me to become what I am today,” he said, noting he is now singing with Araujo’s Corpus Christi College Chamber Choir and the Phoenix Chamber Choir. It was also Araujo – who has frequently collaborated with Stammer on choral concerts – who steered Magis in the direction of the Stella Maris choir. He said he’s looking forward to working with all the guests on the program, including Hoffmann, who in addition to being an excellent accompanist, will also feature one of his own compositions. Where does Magis want to take his music professionally? He’s not sure yet, he admits. “But I do believe music will be a part of my life – and this concert will help decide that.” Tickets are available at the door, and a portion of the proceeds will benefit the B.C.

The deck of HMS Pinafore, at anchor in Spithead, is not the scene of valiant naval derring-do, but merely a location for flirtatious interludes and romantic misunderstandings. Harmon and long-time choreographer/collaborator Carol Seitz have taken a singularly saucy tack with some of the stage business, which might upset some more staid purists, but seems in keeping with what we now know about Victorian society. Throw in a reference to the

Fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day Jazz pianist â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;reaches peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Look-A-Like Contest Alex Browne Arts Reporter

In the rarified world of jazz, musicians donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t always win praise for being â&#x20AC;&#x153;accessibleâ&#x20AC;?. But itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a tag thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s often been applied to Toronto pianist Nancy Walker, even though critics note that â&#x20AC;&#x201C; however easy on the ears her jazz is â&#x20AC;&#x201C; it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t lack for advanced harmonies to sustain interest, and provoke excitement among listeners. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve heard the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;accessibleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; quote a lot,â&#x20AC;? said Walker, who will make a first Peninsula concert appearance with her quartet this Saturday, as part of the Community Arts Councilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s East Meets West jazz series (May 29, 8 p.m., Royal Canadian Legion Crescent Branch 240, 2643 128 St.) â&#x20AC;&#x153;What I like about it is that it implies that the music I play is able to reach people; that thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a level of communication which, after all, is what music is all about. But by no means do I desire to dumb things down â&#x20AC;&#x201C; I believe strongly thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no need to dumb things down for people.â&#x20AC;? The pianist counts herself as a devotee of John Coltrane, and what she describes as the â&#x20AC;&#x153;usual suspectsâ&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; legendary and influential keyboard players of the class of Herbie Hancock, Oscar Peterson and McCoy Tyner. But sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also appreciative of recent innovators on the instrument such as Brad Mehldau, Myra Melford and Jason Moran.

Nancy Walker will perform Saturday in South Surrey. For her own part, Walkerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s playing has been praised for â&#x20AC;&#x153;intellectualism, lyricism and heartâ&#x20AC;? and for an approach that is strongly rhythmic and harmonic. Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been nominated for a Juno, and won the National Jazz Awards keyboardist of the year honours in 2008 and the Montreal Jazz Festivalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Grand Prix de Jazz in 2003. Much of her playlist consists of original material, Walker says, but that leaves plenty of room for covers of songs that inspire her. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I know that some people love the standard repertoire,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Not that Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll necessarily be doing it in a standard way.â&#x20AC;? In working with her quartet â&#x20AC;&#x201C; which for the local concert,

and subsequent appearance at the Vancouver International Jazz Festival, will include long-time sidemen Ted Quinlan (guitar) and Kieran Overs (bass) plus well-respected Lower Mainland drummer Jesse Cahill â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Walker said she likes â&#x20AC;&#x153;a good degree of freedom and looseness.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;But at the same time I wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t feel right about not knowing what weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to play,â&#x20AC;? she said, noting there may still be an occasional deviation from the set list. But she appreciates a free interplay with sidemen, she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As far as improvising is concerned, there is no limit â&#x20AC;&#x201C; or as to how long a song is, or whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to solo, or whether weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re trading fours with the drummer. I leave that in the moment.â&#x20AC;? Curiously, for someone whose work is so rooted in the keyboard now, Walkerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s chosen instrument through her high school years â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the time she credits with turning her on to jazz â&#x20AC;&#x201C; was trumpet. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Just at the time I left high school and was going to college I had chop problems that made me wonder whether it was really the instrument for me,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I switched my major to piano. I still love the sound... I really admire anyone who plays the trumpet. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a real tough, challenging instrument.â&#x20AC;?

YMCA Healthy Kids Day!

Put some play in

Play a ‘delightful comedic romp’ YMCA Healthy Kids Day! from page 25 Admiralty, balancing the pomposity of the character with a suggestion that Sir Joseph’s ship-board interests may not be confined simply to his pursuit of elusive Captain’s daughter Josephine. Equally impressive is Reginald Pillay’s shuffling, lop-sided and contemptuous Dick Deadeye, mischief-making pariah of the Pinafore. His expressions and reactions alone threaten to steal every scene he’s in; his vocal characterization is spot-on, and the way he and other cast members play off each other is a delight. Adding immeasurably to the show is co-producer Wilmot’s thoroughly professional, beautifully sung and consummately comedic turn as Little Buttercup, who nurses a crush on Captain Corcoran, and has a dark, plotresolving secret to reveal. This performance is Exhibit A to support the contention that Wilmot, frequently, if effectively, behind the scenes, deserves to be in the spotlight more often. As Corcoran, Dane Szohner cuts a fine figure in Captain’s frock coat, and demonstrates that he, too, is no slouch in the comedictiming department. Real-life spouses

and operatic talents Debra Da Vaughn and Christopher Simmons once again contribute excellent singing and acting as romantic leads, this time as Josephine and Ralph Rackstraw, whose budding romance is frustrated by social status. Da Vaughn combines a genuineness of emotion with indisputable vocal quality, while Simmons, clearly aware of the absurdity of Ralph’s character, plays it admirably straight.

‘Diverse’ team to tee off at high school provincials

Totems eye top golf prize Nick Greenizan

Sports Reporter

hen Semiahmoo Secondary’s senior golf team lines up to tee off next week at B.C. High School Golf Championships in Salmon Arm, it may seem like the setup to a joke. As in, what do you you get when you cross three sisters – two of them twins – one American, and one six-foot-six hockey player, and top it off with a teacher who has spent most of his life playing and coaching volleyball? It’s no joke, of course, and the Semiahmoo Totems hope the combination is as good as gold at Shuswap ❝We certainly Lake Estates Golf and Country Club, where have the ability the province’s top high to post a low school golfers will tee score... I think off Monday. quite a mix they have a real we“It’s have here – very chance to get a diverse, and young, too,” said Semiahmoo coach medal.❞ Mike Sapic, a former Mike Sapic volleyball coach who coach also played the game professionally. “I don’t think I’d call us favourites (at provincials) but we’ve been pretty strong all season, and we certainly have the ability to post a low score... I think they have a real chance to get a medal.” The Totems’ five-person team consists of the Chua sisters – Grace, in Grade 9, and Grade 11 twins Cheryl and Cherie – Kevin Jung, who recently moved to the Peninsula from Pennsylvania, and Grade 11 Colin Hargrove, a six-foot-six hockey player with Semiahmoo Minor Hockey’s midget A2 squad. Jung, in Grade 10, spent most of the

In that tournament, held in Chilliwack, the then-

Grade 9 Hargrove finished second in the longest-drive contest. This year, the Totems are confident they can make a run at a podium finish – after all, they escaped the Surrey zone, which Sapic said is a challenge in itself. “Only four teams out of 12 make it

through Surrey, and there were a lot of good teams out there,” he said. “Earl Marriott was a really talented team, and when we advanced past them, I think that’s when the team realized that they had a chance.” In high school tournaments, the team’s overall score is calculated by taking the top four of five individual scores, which means on any given day, only one player per team can afford to have a bad round. Sapic said his squad’s success is largely a result of consistency, a claim backed up by his players, all of whom play on the local junior tours and have university golf aspirations. “You really just have to put all the negative thoughts out of your head,” said Jung. “If you have a bad shot, you just have to forget it right away.” Hargrove said it’s easy to stay calm out on the course with the knowledge that your teammates are going to play well. “It really helps to know that you’ve got some backup out there, in case you miss a shot or aren’t playing well,” Hargrove said. In the two-round provincials, Sapic figures Totems will need to average at, or preferably below, a score of 80 per round, per golfer. At Surrey Championships, the team averaged 78.5. The two lowest scores of the season came from Grace and Cheryl, who have each carded rounds of 75 this season. Regardless of what happens at provincials, all five will be back to make a run at a B.C. title again next season – and hopefully impress a few college scouts along the way. “(The Chua’s) dad always jokes with me that all this golf is costing him a fortune, but I just tell him not to worry about it – that he’ll make all his money back on scholarships,” Sapic laughed.

Prime Real Estate for Savvy Investors

White Rock Tritons drop five games last week

CHRISTOPHER SAVAGE

Slump reaches six

604.531.1909 604.764.1496

Nick Greenizan Sports Reporter

The White Rock Tritons’ losing streak reached six games after the B.C. Premier Baseball League team went winless on the long weekend, and then dropped a 10-2 decision Tuesday to the North Delta Blue Jays. The local squad began the weekend with a pair of losses Saturday to the second-place Langley Blaze – by 10-0 and 11-2 scores – before bowing to the Fraser Valley Chiefs in a doubleheader the following day, 5-1 and 10-2. The losses sank White Rock to last place in the 13-team circuit, with a 5-20 win-loss record. In the first game Saturday, White Rock batters were stymied by an old teammate. Blaze pitcher, and former Triton, Milan Mantle allowed just three hits – all singles – over six innings, while striking out eight. In the second game, the Tritons managed four hits, compared

White Rock Tritons’ Josh Sigurdson is tagged out by Fraser Valley shortstop Ryan Pidhaichuk. to Langley’s 12, but struggled in the field with four errors. In Sunday’s opener, the Tritons and Chiefs played a scoreless game until the fifth frame, when the Chiefs exploded for four runs – on three Triton errors – and then added six more runs in the sixth. The second game was closer – the only one of five games last week decided by less than eight runs – but the Tritons couldn’t overcome an early Fraser Valley lead; the Chiefs had a 4-0 advantage after two innings.

CASH

Josh Sigurdson had two of the Tritons’ three hits, including a double. He’s hitting .384 on the season. In Tuesday’s loss to the Jays, White Rock was again sloppy on defence, making five errors, and they managed just five hits on offence – two of which came off the bat of Blaine, Wash. native Tanner Weaver, playing his first game of the season. The Tritons have the weekend off, and return to the field Tuesday for a game at Nat Bailey Stadium against the Vancouver Cannons.

Totems advance Nick Greenizan Sports Reporter

The Semiahmoo Totems advanced to the round of eight at B.C. High School AAA Girls Rugby Championships with a first round 15-5 win over Lord Tweedsmuir Wednesday, while Earl Marriott nearly pulled off a big upset. The No. 4 seed Totems advanced thanks in large part to their athleticism, according to head coach Frank Ellestad. “The key with us was we just had to get running out there.” Joyce Kendon, Shasta Ishikawa and Madi Donald had tries for the Totems. 12th-seeded EMS was sent to the consolation bracket after a 17-12 loss to Courtenay’s G.P. Vanier Towhees – they can now finish no better than ninth – but came close to knocking off the third-seeded squad from the Island. “We were leading right up until the last six minutes,” said EMS coach Joanna McLennan. “But they just outplayed us at the end. They had fresh legs on the field and we just got tired and couldn’t hold on.” Sylvie Mullen had both EMS tries, while Paige Smith added a conversion. The tournament wraps up with finals on Saturday at South Surrey Athletic Park.

PARKER, Denis, October 1914 - May 2010. With sorrow, we announce the passing of Denis at Peace Arch Hospital. Survived by his wife Hazel; sister Mildred and many nieces and nephews. Denis had a keen appreciation of music, particularly brass bands and orchestral. As an avid golfer and as a ﬁsherman, Denis found ample scope to enjoy BC. One time President of the Mann Park Lawn Bowling Club; active member of the Kiwanis Club, with special interest in low-cost housing; and later an active volunteer of the White Rock Branch of the Canadian Cancer Society. By nature, Denis was a reserved person, never seeking prominence. If anything, he would prefer to be regarded as being one who served as he attempted to live out the ethics of the Christian faith. A Memorial Service to celebrate Denis’ life will be held Monday, May 31st at 2:00 pm at Mount Olive Lutheran Church, 2350-148th Street, Surrey, BC.
