Fight HST organizers say all remaining Liberals could be targeted

MLA ‘hit list’ lives on – others to join it Melissa Smalley Staff Reporter

Following an announcement Monday that an HST referendum will be held next fall, opponents of the tax say they are moving forward with plans to oust Liberal MLAs. Fight HST organizer Chris Delaney told Peace Arch News Tuesday that while his group supports the democratic process of

a referendum, there are several factors the group takes issue with, including the timing of the vote, set for Sept. 24, 2011. “Given the pressing nature of this tax, we’re saying the referendum should be held this fall,” Delaney said. “If you hold off for a year, you could actually kill the home construction industry and the renovation industry. People will just wait to make purchases until

after the tax is repealed.” Delaney said he and fellow Fight HST coordinator Bill Vander Zalm will be unveiling their MLA recall strategy next week, which they hope to get underway in November. When asked if MLA Gordon Hogg (Surrey-White Rock) was still on the recall list – as he was one of 24 MLAs named on Fight HST’s “hit list” announced in June – Delaney

said nearly every B.C. Liberal in office could be targeted. “All the MLAs are on the list in the sense that every one of them has supported the tax, with the exception of (now-independent Peace River South MLA) Blair Lekstrom,” Delaney said. “Once we roll out the strategy… we’ll be letting everyone know at that point. But Gordon is definitely in the running.”

Parents express concern for student safety

School district stands by mould response Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

Students in two classrooms at Peace Arch Elementary returned to new floors this month, after water ingress led to the discovery of mould in the crawlspace. “My understanding is it was all… contained,” principal Janet Brine said this week of the mould. “It wasn’t in the air. People weren’t exposed to it.” Work got underway in the summer and was

complete by the start of the new school year, Brine said. And while some parents say they weren’t properly informed of the issue and that school district responses to requests for information over the summer were refused, district spokesperson Doug Strachan said the process has been as open and efficient as possible. The majority of responses to how the issue has been handled have been positive, he added. “We posted all the information on the website,

Despite assurances from senior officials that a peculiar controversy at White Rock city hall this summer had been resolved, the incident has claimed some fallout.

Reached at home Tuesday, Pepper was reluctant to discuss her reasons for leaving, saying she would prefer the issue not be mentioned in a news article.

the act, there is no reason the date has to. New housing is a critical aspect of the economy. In Surrey, it is the biggest economic generator. If construction dries up between now and next September, there will be a significant hit to the economny. In addition, new housing sales spark a lot of spin-off economic activity. People buy new furniture. Movers are hired. Their old homes are put up for sale, and the buyers of those homes (which are HST-exempt, by the way) often make plans for renovations. Housing is an enormously important part of the Surrey and B.C. economy, and any uncertainty about tax on housing that lasts for more than a year will have a devastating effect. Then there’s the political uncertainty. Campbell has always stressed stability as a key reason that outside investors will put money into the B.C. economy, and he’s right. A year of political uncertainty, which could end in the governing party being both leaderless and rudderless, is hardly the type of stability that he has talked about. Some may say that Watts is bringing up these issues because she herself may be in line to succeed Campbell. I don’t think so. What she’s saying is reflective of how many people feel. A final decision on the HST is needed, but the sooner it is made, the better for everyone. Frank Bucholtz writes Fridays for the Peace Arch News. He is the editor of the Langley Times.

School teams forced to travel for second year

EMS home games turfed, due to field Nick Greenizan Staff Reporter

The Earl Marriott Mariners football program is going to have to play a second straight season on the road. The school’s new field – which was supposed to be ready in time for this school year – is not ready. In fact, it’s in fairly rough shape, according to EMS Football president Andy Gallacher. “I went by there just the other day, and there’s a huge patch of grass that’s just completely dead. There’s been no watering, no maintenance, no anything,” he said, adding that he learned on the first day of the school year that the field wasn’t in game shape. “The grass should be growing. Something’s wrong there.” Earl Marriott principal Peter Johnston confirmed last week that the field would not be ready for the fall season and likely not in time for spring sports, either. “While there’s a possibility the field could be used in the spring, winter weather usu-

ally takes its toll on developing grass fields and precludes field use,” Johnston said in an email. Johnston would not go into detail about what caused the problems with the field. “Obviously, everyone involved is disappointed in this news,” Johnston said, adding that a contingency plan was in place for all EMS sports teams that would otherwise use the new field. “There are always variables affecting completion times with any substantial construction project; even more so for projects like an outdoor field that is subject to weather effects… the district is now focused on working with the contractor to ensure everything is done to have a great field in place for next year.” Surrey School District spokesperson Doug Strachan confirmed the district is working to find a solution.

Two towers remain in plan

City sends Bosa back for rethink Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

White Rock city councillors want more time to consider proposed changes to Bosa Properties’ two remaining towers. So while city staff this week recommended moving toward approving requested zoning and development permit amendments, the project has been referred back to the city’s advisory design panel. Councillors at the city’s land use and planning committee Monday voted unanimously on the motion – made by Coun. Doug McLean – following comments the project, at 15177 Thrift Ave., seemed to be getting rushed through. “I’m sorry, but it just seems the time hasn’t been spent on this,” Coun. Mary-Wade AnderBosa Properties graphic son said. “It’s kind of a rush, but I’m not sure White Rock council members rejected city staff recommendations to approve changes to design. why we’re rushing.” Bosa has asked for zoning and development and terms of the development permit have permit amendments in order to: increase the points to an apparent rush on the proposal.

Watts ‘not interested’ in Liberal leadership Kevin Diakiw Black Press

Despite ongoing public speculation that she will run for the provincial Liberal leadership, Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts continues to dismiss the notion. “I’m not interested in running for the leadership of the Liberal party,” Watts said last week. “I’m planning to run for mayor (in 2011).” Watts also quashed the idea of running for provincial politics while serving as mayor, which would lead to a civic byelection. “I absolutely don’t think that somebody should get in office and immediately call a byelection,” Watts said. “It’s not something that I support, nor is it something I would do.” Asked if she would run for the leadership of the B.C. Conservatives, Watts said, “I certainly haven’t had any conversations in that regard.” Speculation of Dianne Watts a new Liberal Surrey mayor leader comes as the harmonized sales tax controversy continues to mount, and some are calling for the resignation of Liberal Leader Gordon Campbell. Another name being floated by pundits to replace Campbell is former Liberal finance minister Carole Taylor. Liberal riding associations are holding annual general meetings this month and early October. They have the opportunity to hold a secret ballot as to whether they support Campbell’s leadership, prior to a Nov. 19 party convention in Penticton.

� from page 1 ents’ request for a public information meeting involving all the parties was denied. Brine told Peace Arch News a meeting is not out of the question, but she doubts it would bring any information to light that hasn’t already been shared, via notices and the school website. “Everything there is to know about what’s going on is posted. I’m not sure a public information meeting would divulge any new information,” the principal said. “It would just be a reiteration of everything that’s happened.” Strachan said if there is increased alarm among parents, a meeting is “worth having” to address it. He noted all reports indicate the

school is “safe and appropriate” to be occupied. Strachan said a preliminary cost estimate of the remediation work is $70,000. Approximately half of each classroom’s floor was replaced, as well as drainage tiles along the outside of the school. Air-quality tests were also done to evaluate the presence of mould spores in the air; those results, received last Friday, were expected to be posted on the school website this week. The mould was the second issue to raise health concerns at the school in recent months. Extensive work was undertaken in the spring, after asbestos was found in vermiculite insulation that leaked out into the school library and four classrooms.

had said nothing about the photos coming down in council chambers. Clark and Ferguson had each responded to subsequent queries, saying the matter had been resolved. Pepper was on vacation when the issue came to a head, and said that returning to public criticism without having had an opportunity to clarify the situation or address concerns was demoralizing for everyone involved. “The whole thing was an awkward situation, at best,” she said, noting there was never any plan to put the photos in storage permanently, only temporarily during the work. Pepper described Ferguson’s leadership style as “autocratic.” “It creates a lot of challenges for both staff and council,” she said. “I’m ready to go.” Ferguson is on vacation and could not be reached for comment. Pepper’s resignation follows that of operations director David Pollock, who ended his six-year tenure with the city in February; the loss of former parks manager Dale Kitsul last November, after his position was made redundant; and the retirement of operations manager Ted Haight.

Clarkson to leave

At deadline Thursday, longtime city leisure services director Rita Clarkson announced her resignation, after an “exceptional” 23 years with the city, citing family commitments. Her last day will be Nov. 30. “I love the business, absolutely love it, and have forever,” she said. “This isn’t a retirement.”

� from page 1 “Despite enjoying positive working relationships with the city manager, senior management and a large number of employees across the organization, I feel the work environment at city hall has become unhealthy in recent months – not just for me, but for staff generally,” Pepper said. Pepper emphasized her decision had nothing to do with criticism of Epcor communications during the city’s recent boil-water advisory, noting she was not involved in any of those communication decisions. Criticism generated by PAN articles last month detailing the removal of old photographs from city hall walls, however, played a significant role. It was the culmination of a series of events – “the straw that broke the camel’s back,” she said. PAN reported Aug. 11 how Ferguson was upset to discover, upon return from vacation, that a number of photographs of past mayors and councils had been removed from the walls of council chambers and the outer hallway. Ferguson said at the time that she was told by Pepper that the photos would be put in storage, and described the move as “extremely disrespectful.” The issue was further complicated when other council members weighed in. Coun. Lynne Sinclair told PAN that Pepper had advised council in an email that the area was to receive esthetic improvements, and that she understood the photos were being cleaned and fitted with proper name plates. Later that same week, Coun. Helen Fathers noted Pepper’s email

editorial

Toughest drunk driving laws come to B.C.

eginning Monday, Sept. 20, British Columbia drivers will face the most stringent laws against drunk driving in the country. They’re being adopted to help end the carnage caused by impaired motorists that kills more than 100 people and injures 3,000 more every year. Drivers caught with a blood alcohol reading between .05 and .08 will no longer receive a 24-hour suspension and possible impounding of their vehicle; they’ll now lose their licence, and likely their vehicle as well, for three days and be subject to $450 in fines and licence reinstatement fees. If they’re caught again in a five-year period, they’ll be immediately pulled from the road for seven days and find their wallets at least $550 lighter. A third offense in five years will cost a driver his licence and vehicle for 30 days, $650 in fines and fees, and they’ll have to get an ignition interlock device installed on their vehicle for one year following their suspension. Such a device requires a driver to give a breath sample to even start their car and random samples while they’re driving to ensure they’re driving alcohol free. If a driver blows more than .08, registering a fail on the breathalyzer, they’ll immediately lose their licence for 90 days and their vehicle for 30 days, get whacked with at least $750 in fines and fees, be required to install the ignition interlock device on their vehicle when they do regain their driving privileges, and face possible criminal charges. And it won’t take much alcohol for these new levels of enforcement to kick in either; according to the University of Oklahoma Police Department’s online blood alcohol calculator, a 180-pound male who’s consumed one pint of Canadian beer in less than an hour will blow a blood-alcohol content of .06 – over the limit. That means even that quick drink on the way home from work, or that beer after the game, could land you in a world of hurt. That’s the sobering new reality drivers now face in B.C.

thoughts. About a month ago, I decided the best course of action would be to just buck up and pay somebody else to do it. Sure, it would probably cost a little more, but how could I put a price on my own peace of mind? Such do-ityourselfness is awfully stressful, and really, with the number of hammered thumbs/sore backs/lost limbs sure to result if I picked up a hammer myself, think of the time I’d waste filling out all those health insurance forms. A few weeks ago, while on a visit to check on the new house’s progress, I happened to mention my plan to one of my new neighbours – a cheerful woman who had recently moved in with her husband after downsizing from a larger home. “You know, that’s the problem with young people today, they’d rather pay for something than do it themselves,” she smiled, chiding me. “We’ve built four houses from scratch in our lives, and the last one was 3,600 square feet – and we drywalled the whole damn place ourselves.” Which is all well and good, if you have the appropriate skills and the desire to put them to use. But like I said, my toolbox is pretty empty and my friends can only eat so much free pizza and drink so much free beer (although I wouldn’t want to test them on the latter). So I’ll put up with whatever mockery comes my way from the peanut gallery, and I’ll let my neighbour hang as much drywall as she wants. I’ll just write about it once it’s done.

Let tolerance beget tolerance Editor: Re: Christians share Muslims; message, Sept. 10. Kudos to Rev. Stuart Lyster for showing, again, the tolerance of our Christian ways, by reading to his congregation a translation of a passage from the Koran. I look forward to reading about a local imam giving his congregation a reading from our Holy Bible. Derek Cox, Surrey

Questions over water Editor: The pollution of our water supply is one of the very few issues that directly affect every man, woman and child living in White Rock. Although the immediate threat appears to have diminished, there are major questions that eventually will assume more importance than the recent health risk. A few of these are: Why did Epcor not make safe water available to its customers? A public-spirited independent business soon sprang to the rescue with the offer of free, clean water for everyone affected. Why did Epcor, which was still is charging its customers for the polluted water, not do that right from the start? Why the secrecy? Epcor’s notification to residents was highly selective, and subsequent information was manipulated and restricted. Is the current testing routine adequate? It is obvious that water testing is at present entirely reactive – by the time we get the bad news, the polluted water is already inside our bodies. Why cannot testing be made proactive, so that any potential problem is addressed before it becomes dangerous? Is water treatment necessary? White Rock’s water is untreated and unfiltered. It tastes and smells good, and consumers consider it superior. Other metro-area water smells bad and has a poor taste because of its additives. White Rock’s water should not be treated until it is clearly proven to be absolutely necessary. At present, there is no evidence for it. Treatment is expensive and introduces highly poisonous materials – chlorine for example. Often it is used because surface catchment and storage areas have been badly polluted through exploitation, such as by logging operations, as has occurred with the metro-area supply. This is nothing more than a way of supplying already-polluted water and sidestepping its effect on health. None of this applies to White Rock, where the supply is from an unpolluted aquifer deep underground. In our case, removal of the risk may require no more than improved testing and maintenance. Some of the answers to these and other questions are self-evident.

Others are yet to be determined. An independent commission must be established to investigate the matter and recommend solutions for public acceptance. There is no doubt that open public meetings are essential, at which Epcor, the health authorities and customers will have the opportunity to review what has happened and what is to be done. Currently, moves are being made to restrict decisions to officials in secret meetings. These issues are not ones to be dealt with secretly by corporate and bureaucratic decision makers. This is the very public matter of a single corporation, exclusively entrusted by the public with the crucial responsibility of providing an essential life-related public service. Thomas White, White Rock

Back to the beach Editor: My informal poll is in. East Beach merchants report this was not a good summer. For businesses that July 1 is the best day of the year, and Aug. 1 the next-best, this was the first time in almost 10 years that it rained or was cloudy on both. The other “culprit” are the parking rates. Hiked from $2 per hour last year, to $3 this year, makes people wonder. As one merchant put it, “the elected officials have no business

sense.” A more gradual approach might have eased sticker price shock. Of course, I measure failure as not enhancing the beach experience through “good” urbanism. East and west, the roads, the parking lots and the sidewalks could be designed with a view to enhancing the “walking experience of place.” Can we make it so that my family, or the family coming towards us, do not have to step off the curb in order to pass by one another? Can we increase parking space, rather than parking price, netting the same financial reward? Can we build a ‘Spirit Square’ on the west, and another on the east? Adding more traffic signals is not the first solution that comes to mind. Lewis N. Villegas, White Rock

Year Anniversary 25 Billboard set for Patullo Celebration

news

ON NOW!

Kevin Diakiw Black Press

Surrey is advancing its plan to erect electronic billboards at key points in the city by placing one on the Surrey side of the Pattullo Bridge. At least one councillor calls it the beginning of the “uglification” of Surrey. On Monday afternoon, Surrey approved a proposal for an electronic billboard to be located at 124 Street and King George Boulevard. There are currently two of the message boards in Surrey, one at the Surrey Sports and Leisure Complex and one at the Guildford Recreation Centre. The Pattullo Bridge sign, at 672 square feet – each side – far eclipses the existing signs, which are 200 square feet (10 feet by 20 feet). Coun. Bob Bose is opposed to the idea of billboards in Surrey. “We wouldn’t allow these on

About 30 per cent of the

advertising time will be for civic messages. Coun. Marvin Hunt said he drives by one of the signs daily and finds it quite attractive. “These signs are really unobtrusive and look really good,” Hunt told his council colleagues. Surrey will receive revenue as part of the advertising.

Concerns raised over properties Two applications to subdivide White Rock properties – one on Best Street, the other on Goggs Avenue – will go to public hearing, following council support this week for zoning amendments. The Best property, at 1438 Best St., is located within the South of Hospital Lands area, and the proposed subdivision is “very consistent” with others in the area, director of development services Paul Stanton told councillors Monday. Both subdivision lots will front on Best – a point which concerned Coun. Doug McLean, who cast the only opposing vote. McLean questioned the logic of having “a large residential side of a building” fronting four or five homes on Goggs. Stanton said there is a

precedent for the practice, set by an earlier approval on a nearby lot. At the same time, a covenant requires the design of the home in question to provide a facade “characteristic to the street.” The only way the 1438 subdivision could be oriented towards Goggs would be if it was a joint application with owners of 1428 Best St., he said, explaining that would force the two lots to co-operate. A shared-access driveway could be considered to alleviate street-parking concerns, Stanton added. The second application, for 15561 Goggs Ave., raised concerns about service connections for the new homes. Coun. Al Campbell said he was disappointed to hear that new

services will need to be installed, given that work reconstructing Goggs has already taken place. “This is something we’re going to have to be very careful of,” Campbell said. “It’s going to be very costly. It might be very prudent (to) do both of these lots at the same time.” Stanton noted existing services would also be tapped, and the owner will have to contribute to a levy for improvements. He noted service connections can’t be done until the existing house is demolished and existing services are capped. A motion to support recommendations for the Goggs zoning amendment and to direct staff schedule a public hearing passed unanimously. - Tracy Holmes

Following Terry’s lead Hannah Sutherland

Staff Reporter

s Terry Fox ran in his Marathon of Hope 30 years ago, an 11-yearold Ray Shepherd Elementary student followed the trek in awe. Dave White was already passionate about running, having been introduced to the activity when he was just five. “When I was eight, in Grade

So when the first Terry Fox Run was held on the Peninsula in 1981, White didn’t hesitate to join. “When they started the run, there was no other thing for me. I had to go and run and be a part of it.” White has participated in every Terry Fox Run since – some years running in other communities when there wasn’t a local event – and plans to continue the streak Sept. 19, when it is held at South Surrey Athletic Park. He will run in honour of the 5,373 kilometres Terry completed, as well as the impact such an accomplishment made on his life. Due to injuries he sustained in 1994 after being hit by a car, White – a competitive runner at the time – was no longer able to compete at the same level he was used to, and instead turned to drugs and alcohol. � see page 12

3, they told me I could race,” he recalled of entering track and field competitions. “Once that happened, my life was never the same. Running was everything to me.” White said running wasn’t very popular at the time, so he was inspired to learn of Fox’s undertaking. He watched clips of the crosscountry journey on the news, and received updates from his teacher. He still remembers Sept. 1, 1980, when Fox was forced to stop, due to the appearance of cancer in his lungs. By that time, Fox had already become one of White’s heroes, whether he finished the marathon or not. “What Terry did was break down barriers,” White, now 41, said. “He broke down barriers to make us believe we can do so much more.”

Foxes help keep hope alive Katie Bartel Black Press

It took Betty Fox nearly three decades to truly understand what her son meant to the world. Tears streamed down her face as she recalled, a few years ago, watching kids in Bangladesh – without proper clothes or regular meals – running to raise money for cancer research, all in the name of her son. “They had nothing,” she said, squeezing her eyes shut. “They were living in pure poverty… I finally, truly understood what Terry meant to the people.” More than 30 years after Terry Fox, a then-unknown runner, started his Marathon of Hope, his parents, Betty and Rolly Fox, are still amazed at how far their son’s dream has come. This Sunday, Sept. 19, will mark the 30th anniversary of the Terry Fox Run. More than 800 locations across Canada will host the run, which has raised $500 million worldwide for cancer research. “Not in a million years did we ever think it would become this.” Betty thought her son was crazy when he first approached her about the idea for the run. On a September evening in 1979, the day after Terry had completed the 17-mile ‘Prince

George to Boston Marathon,’ he walked over to the kitchen where Betty was preparing dinner and told her of his plans to run across Canada for cancer research, something he’d been training for for almost a year already. Betty couldn’t believe her ears. She boiled over with anger. As far as she and the rest of the family knew, the Prince George race was supposed to be a prep run for Terry, who had been saying he was training for the Vancouver Marathon – not a catalyst

for running across Canada. She told him it was a stupid idea, that if no able-bodied person had run from Newfoundland to B.C., how was her son, who had an artificial leg, going to be able to do it? She fought him tooth and nail, told him he was crazy, but nothing she said would deter him. When Terry had been diagnosed with bone cancer two years earlier, and had his leg amputated as a result, he had seen far too many kids suffering from the disease. He was determined to stop the suffering. Betty didn’t like the idea; it made her sick with worry. She knew her son would have to share the road with semi trucks, buses and fast-speeding cars. She knew he’d be running on roads without sidewalks and paved shoulders, that he’d be running in horrendous conditions. She feared for his safety. And while that fear never left her, her opposition to the run did on April 12, 1980, the day Terry dipped his leg into the Atlantic. In the years since, Betty has travelled Canada listening to stories about how her son’s journey had touched the hearts of many. “Terry’s run will go on for as long as we still need to find the causes of cancer.”

Rotary Club of White Rock has hosted it. The goal is to continue Fox’s work, Scoffield said, as well as recognize a national icon. “The larger focus here is holding up a hero who Canadians would do well to emulate,” he said. “I can’t think of a better hero for young people growing up.” Considering what Fox went through to advance cancer research, there is no excuse not to join the run, White added. “It’s all about running hard, running as hard as you can for Terry…”

The local event usually collects around $10,000 for cancer research, with last year’s hitting the $17,000 mark. Scoffield said registration is open to anyone – whether people choose to bike, walk, run or stroll – and will be just one of 128 runs held in B.C. that same day.

Patrick Maxwell is honouring the 70th anniversary of the Battle of Britain.

Battle remembered Hannah Sutherland Staff Reporter

The 70th anniversary of the Battle of Britain will be recognized in White Rock Sunday, with a fundraiser at the Elks Hall, 1469 George St. The Sept. 19 event will feature drinks, a screening of the film, Battle of Britain, a meal of bangers and mash, onions and gravy, and live music. Organizer Patrick Maxwell said he hopes veterans will also share stories of their wartime experiences. “We’ve got a lot of vets down here in White Rock, especially in the Elks Club, we’ve got such a rich heritage of history there,” he said, noting he hopes to see about 80 attendants. “Hollywood would be hard pushed to be able to write a script the way these guys tell their stories.

“We’re planning on asking them to share a few words.” Maxwell – who has studied historical people and events, such as the Battle of Britain – said he felt it was important to recognize such an important piece of history. “The Battle of Britain is a very significant battle that happened in the Second World War,” he said of the air campaign waged against the United Kingdom by the German Air Force from July to September 1940. “It has to be one of the most pivotal turning points of the war.” The public is welcome to this Sunday’s event, and admission is upon donation to BC Elks Children’s Camps. Doors open at 2:30 p.m. For more information, call the local Elks Club at 604-538-4016.

In addition to the dinner, this year’s event, held Sunday, also featured a Nintendo Wii tournament, which transformed White Rock’s Star of the Sea School into a mini-arcade, with teams competing at four different Wii gaming stations – testing their skills in all manner of games, from Super Mario Bros. to Olympic sports-themed games. It wasn’t all just fun and games, however. Proceeds from the tournament – as well as the dinner – were earmarked for Father Peter Zago, a priest of the Salesian order, and his school in Pakistan. Since the recent floods in Pakistan, Zago’s Don Bosco School, located in the mountains of Quetta, has struggled to care for refugees who’ve been

Lise Alexander shaves head to support young friend

Keeping her promise After pledging this summer to shave her head in benefit of a 13-year-old cancer patient, Roadhouse Bake Shoppe manager Lise Alexander kept her promise last weekend. The White Rock mother-of-four said goodbye to her golden locks Saturday after her South Surrey store’s “little tip jar that could” reached $2,000 in donations. The money – which totalled $2,700 Saturday, and continues to grow – will benefit Alexander’s best friend’s daughter, Angelica Culley, who was diagnosed with leukemia in June. Angelica’s father, Jon, told Peace Arch News last month that the family is facing increased expenses as a result of her illness. “We will continue to collect for the family as long as they need it,” Alexander said via email this week. A hairdresser from the bakery’s neighbouring business, MenZone Hair Co., donated her services for the head-shaving, and a chef from McJac’s Roadhouse Grille Restaurant

Merritt, White Rock rally to help Christina Kinvig

Cities support young mom Katie Sanders Black Press

Life has thrown a few curve balls at Christina Kinvig. A young and vibrant Terrace woman, Kinvig thought her greatest challenge would be coping with the realities of being a single mother. Little did she know, just months after the birth of her son, Jack, a greater obstacle would be placed in her path. In July, at just 27 years of age, Kinvig was diagnosed with stage three colon cancer. Living with an aggressive form of cancer has turned Kinvig’s life upside down. She was expecting to be spending this time concentrating on being a mother, but now she’s having to divide her attention between her son and her own health. “My treatment started this week,” she said. “And now that’s all I do. I go to treatment, and I take care of Jack.” Kinvig’s family has rallied around her. She is living with her aunt and uncle in White Rock. Her father has taken a leave of absence from work, and her mother flies in to visit from Terrace as often as she can. “So many people are being unbelievably generous with us right now,” said Kinvig. “My mother’s employer, an airline, has given her free flights for the duration of my treatment

Puppy treated for marijuana ingestion after walking in South Surrey green space

White Rock dog owner warns of pot in parks Hannah Sutherland Staff Reporter

A White Rock woman who believes her dog ingested marijuana at a local park last week hopes other pet owners learn from her experience. Deborah Astells said she was walking her nine-month-old cockapoo through Southmere Village Park, 1701 Martin Dr., last Friday (Sept. 10) evening, when she first noticed Poppy acting unusual. “I was going down around the ponds and her leash felt funny to me, so I looked down and her left back leg was folding under her, and then she lost all balance and she lost bladder control.” Astells said she scooped up 15-pound Poppy and walked the short distance home, where the dog went “flat out on her side” and started twitching. Astells took Poppy to a local veterinary clinic, where she said the dog’s urine tested positive for THC, a chemical found in marijuana. Poppy was put on intravenous fluids for a few hours, she said, and was finally back to her normal self two days later. Astells said she was told by the veterinarian that it is not uncommon for dogs who have ingested marijuana to be brought in. Peace Arch News reported of the situation two years ago, when a veterinarian with the Animal Emergency Clinic of the Fraser Valley in Langley said she regularly sees dogs from around the Lower Mainland – including South Surrey and White Rock – who have been affected by the drug.

“Dogs tend to have their mouths right to the ground,” Dr. Nadine Koreman told PAN at the time. “It can happen to dogs on- or off-leash… usually, not long after they get home, they’ll notice their pet acting unusually.” Koreman said symptoms of an affected dog include sleepiness, extreme sensitivity to light and motion, low heart rate, low blood pressure and the dog urinating on itself, or dribbling urine. Treatment can include intravenous treatment or induced vomiting, she said, noting the emergency clinic sees a couple cases a week. Although Astells isn’t positive that Poppy picked up marijuana at the South Surrey park, she said the dog began exhibiting symptoms within 10 minutes of being there. Not only did the situation cost Astells $250 in vet bills, but she said it was a “major stress.” “(Poppy’s) especially dear to me because I have an anxiety and depression disorder, so my doctor wrote a prescription so I could have her for therapy,” Astells said. “So I’m very lucky to have her. “I was just terrified she was going to die when I saw all the symptoms.” She said the experience has caused her to reconsider where she walks Poppy. “I usually take her over the hills and in the grass,” she said of Southmere Village Park. “You’ve got to take your dog somewhere. I’m thinking about just (sticking to) the perimeter, on the sidewalk.”

Raymond James Welcomes

Uptown Summersault Festival attracts plenty of attendees

Party-on Peninsula, again Party-goers of all ages hit the streets of White Rock Saturday for the Uptown Summersault Festival, a popular tradition on the Peninsula. The annual event, produced by the White Rock Business Improvement Association, included sidewalk sales, barbecue, live music, a street market, an art walk and activities for children. Returning to the festival was the Rotary Club of White Rock Millennium’s second annual Chili Cook-off, which brought

local business owners and non profit groups head-to-head to compete for bragging rights in the best of beans. A range of musical acts entertained the crowd from three stages, including Dust Covers, Semiahmoo Secondary group So What, Arthur Murray Dancers, Natasha Mow and the Compound Blues Band, featuring Laura Bacon, Joe Given and the Blues Brothers Too tribute band entertained the crowd at the Tapestry Music Main Stage on Johnston Road

and Russell Avenue. The Central Plaza Stage, at North Bluff Road and Johnston Road, featured the talent of locals Glen Pearson, Tommy Alto and Kenny Eckert. Students from Tom Brewer’s rock school program, showed off their musical skills at the Hillcrest Youth Stage, Johnston Road and Thrift Avenue. In addition to the three stages, street performers dazzled the crowds with their talent at various locations throughout uptown White Rock.

Semiahmoo Roong is a local roong company specializing in re-roong and cedar conversions. Our priority is to provide a quality product along with professional service and installation. We primarily service only the Semiahmoo Peninsula, but occasionally will venture out of the area for customers’ friends and relatives. Many of our jobs have been on high-end homes and estates on the Peninsula. We have proven to take extra care and attention to property and landscapes. Here is an authentic letter and a typical response I receive from my customers. Dear Lance: Yoland and I wanted to know how much we appreciated your services while our home was being taken care of by Semiahmoo Roong. From rst contact with you, we have received nothing but premiere service. The amount of time you spent talking with us, and explaining available roong solutions, was a welcome relief that denitely eased the worries we had before we heard of you and your company. The attention you give to your clients is very evident, and we couldn’t be happier. It’s a great feeling to be able to totally trust someone in and around your home, and the comments we heard from our neighbors, reected how much everyone thought you went more than the usual lengths to make sure our yard, gardens, and deck areas were protected throughout. I hope you know how appreciative we are for that, too. Everyone in your crew was a pleasure to have on the property, and we very much enjoyed having them around as they worked on our roof. Your care and attention to detail was greatly appreciated, as was the work ethic of all the guys, especially during the heat spell that we saw during part of it. They all did a fantastic job, and should be proud of the nal results here, as Yoland and myself certainly are. Lance, thank you so very much for taking such great care of us! I invite you to take a drive by a couple of my recent jobs and see for yourself the kind of work we do. • 2295 141 Ave. • 1643 134th Ave. • 13715 18 Ave. • 13693 18 Ave.

news Persistent violators can expect more tickets

Red-light enforcement up Jeff Nagel Black Press

ICBC is installing 140 new traffic enforcement cameras at intersections across B.C. this fall to bust red-light runners. It’s a nearly five-fold increase from the 30 existing cameras that snap the licence plates of drivers who race through lights on red, earning them $167 tickets in the mail. The $20-million upgrade – first announced by the provincial government last spring – will eliminate the old film cameras, which rotated through 120 targeted intersections, in favour of new digital ones that automatically transmit images of offenders’ plates to the ticket processing centre. The new cameras will remain fixed in 140 locations that have now been determined – including one South Surrey site at 24 Avenue and 152 Street. ICBC isn’t yet releasing the list of target intersections, saying that will come via a government announcement later this year when the new system is up and running. However, it’s a fair bet that it will mean a significantly higher risk of getting caught for prolific red light scofflaws, particularly in cities where there are already plenty of intersections with camera mounts. Vancouver currently has 25 of the 92 Lower Mainland camera sites, while Surrey has 13, Burnaby and Delta have seven each and Richmond and Abbotsford have five each. “We looked at over 1,400 signalized inersections throughout the province and gradually winnowed that down,” said Mark Milner, manager of ICBC road safety programs. He estimated there will be a six-per-cent reduction in seri-

Drivers who run red lights will have 140 new traffic enforcement cameras at intersections around the province to worry about. ous injury and fatal crashes at intersections as a result of the cameras. The amounts paid out in claims for crashes should go down accordingly, he said, covering the cost of the new cameras. The ticket fine revenue will go to local municipalities, not to ICBC. The digital system means tickets could go out in days, rather than the current four to six weeks. Although the cameras could run all the time, Milner said each one will only be activated part of the time. The aim, he said, is to maximize safety, not fine revenue. ICBC will study which times of day and days of week it makes most sense to run the cameras. Milner didn’t rule out further expansion of the red light camera system. “It’s possible we may consider adding more further down the road,” he said. “Right now, we think we’ve got the optimal road safety benefit per site at 140.”

Surrey and Langley were among the local cities that pushed hard for an expansion of the program. Milner said ICBC has “no plans” to follow the lead of Edmonton and Calgary, where intersection cameras churn out tickets not just for red light runners but also for motorists speeding through monitored intersections on green. The provincial government has consistently said it has no plans to reintroduce any variation of the photo radar program, scrapped in 2001. The Integrated Safety Camera Unit issues 20,000 tickets a year to red light runners. Roughly 40 per cent of serious crashes happen at intersections. The province has recently toughened other provincial penalties for dangerous drivers. New regulations taking effect Sept. 20 require a minimum seven-day vehicle impoundment for any driver ticketed for excessive speeding at more than 40 kilometres over the posted speed limit.

Metro Vancouver could get into the business of buying up and renting out farmland to bolster the region’s ability to feed itself. A draft Regional Food Systems Strategy unveiled last week proposes creating a trust fund that could be used to buy threatened farmland and lease it to farmers, particularly young ones who can’t afford their own farms. Farmland in the Agricultural Land Reserve (ALR) that’s repeatedly targeted by developers could be purchased, but so could prime farmland outside the ALR that could then be added to the reserve, said Richmond Coun.

Parker said the board is stable and has gained much knowledge and appreciation for the transit system and regional needs. He predicts one of the most important but less-understood decisions has been to proceed with a smart card payment system.

Katarina Liao R.TCM.P. Masters in Acupuncture 23 years experience

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. Though we would think the main cause of acid reflux attack is what we eat and drink, the fact is a little different as it is also about how we eat and drink. This can be proved by the fact that many of us

Dr. William Liang

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.

Surrey Hospice Society sketches out ideas for a fundraiser

Loraine Wellmann

Doodle daydreams

sing a clean sheet of paper, the Surrey Hospice Society has come up with an artistic way to raise money with a Doodle Art Reception. To assist with the fundraiser, the famous and semi-famous from across Canada have submitted doodles for sale at this month. Among the contributors so far: Former B.C. premier Bill Vander Zalm, TV and radio sports Jody Vance, Vancouver Whitecaps president Bob Lenarduzzi and CityTV Breakfast Television host Dawn Chubai. A number of White Rock/South Surrey residents are also lending their support to the event, including TV personalities Kristie Gordon and Mark Madryga, as well as artists Deborah Putman and Richard McDiarmid. Among somewhat less famous folks are Linda Van Russum, executive assistant to MLA Kevin Falcon, Canadian artists Sharon Fox Cranston, Myrna Brooks Bercovitch, Nick Bantock, Pam Weber, Loraine Wellman, and (rumoured to join) some Surrey council members and their families. The invitations began going out last spring and are still coming in, says executive director Marion Bradner. The doodles, most of them autographed, will be sold at silent and live auctions at the event. The Surrey Hospice Societyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Doodle Art Reception takes place Sept. 23 from 5:30-8 p.m. at Eaglequest Coyote Creek Golf Club, 7778 152 St. The event includes a cocktail reception, live and silent auctions and music by Acoustic Groove. All proceeds will go to the hospice society. Tickets are $25. To RSVP, call 604543-7006. For more information, visit www.surreyhospice.com

Latest teen sensations coming to Surrey Chelsea Haeber Black Press

Attention teens and tweens: Allstar Weekend’s tour bus will be stopping in Surrey this month. Concert-goers can expect a party, said bassist Cameron Quiseng in an interview with Black Press. He will be jamming on stage with singer Zach Porter, guitarist Nathan Darmody and drummer Michael Martinez. Allstar Weekend has been labelled a fusion of Blink 182 – minus the tattoos – and the Jonas Brothers. Their music is pop – with an edge. Not only does the band admire Blink 182, but they also went to the same high school as the successful rock group. “They were the first band where

Contributed photo

Allstar Weekend heads for Surrey next month for concert Sept. 21.

I was like, ‘that’s what I wanna do’,” Quiseng said. Born in San Diego, the high school friends first started playing in a garage, writing their own lyrics and posting their tunes online. “With Allstar Weekend, what

you see is what you get,” Porter explained. “We do all the things that normal teenagers do, and that’s exactly what we write our songs about.” They have quickly gone from “standard dudes” to superstars. So far, they’ve racked up more than 2.5 million MySpace plays and 811,000 YouTube visits for their video of Journey to the End of My Life. Their online popularity grabbed the attention of The Walt Disney Company, and the band was chosen to participate in Radio Disney’s Next Big Thing program. The reaction was so positive, Hollywood Records snapped them up. The quartet still can’t quite believe its success. Quiseng said he is still surprised

that “a song that we wrote in one of our bedrooms when we were 16 is now number one on Radio Disney.” The fresh-faced teens are now on Disney’s Top 30 Countdown alongside Justin Bieber, Selena Gomez and Savanna. The band’s debut album, Suddenly, was released in June 2010, and despite the hundreds of fans, the members of Allstar Weekend say their biggest admirers are their parents. If watching Allstar Weekend in 2D isn’t enough, you can see them live on Sept. 21 for an all-ages concert from 6 to 9 p.m. at the Bell Performing Arts Centre (6250 144 St.). Tickets ($24.50 and $26) are available through Ticketmaster at 604-280-4444 or www.ticketmaster. ca

Beecher Street Cafe to host whodunnit dinner Sept. 30

Murder, mystery and mayhem Melissa Smalley Staff Reporter

Crescent Beach will be the scene of a mysterious murder later this month, but don’t expect the RCMP to be investigating this whodunnit. A murder mystery dinner show, hosted by Beecher Street Cafe Sept. 30, promises to be heavier on the comedy than the mystery, according to organizers. “We create parties, we don’t create super mysteries,” producer/host Trevor Jenkins told Peace Arch News this week. “If you follow the show, you’ll get it.” The plot revolves around three comics vying for a spot

performing at the cafe. When one of the comics is poisoned, the other two begin to accuse one another, only to find they both have mutual interest in the comic’s untimely death. “We also have in improv actor who plays a magician who can never get it right,” Jenkins said. While audience members will have plenty of opportunity to take part in solving the mystery – from analyzing handwriting to decoding a cryptic note left behind by the dead comic – Jenkins said attendees can also tap into their inner comedian. The evening will include an open mic comedy

contest, with prizes awarded for best one liner. “Everyone gets a chance to participate,” Jenkins said. “Those who really want to get involved can get up and tell a joke, and those who want to relax can just sit back and watch.” Jenkins is bringing the dinner theatre production to the Peninsula after an appearance in Richmond last weekend, which he said had a “fabulous” reception. “Everybody started to get so involved after an hour or two,” he said. “Another indication is how long they stay after the performance, and it was over an hour before anyone started

to leave.” Although Jenkins has plenty of experience with productions of this sort – the show at Beecher Street will mark his 120th production in 16 years – he said there’s always an element of surprise for everyone involved. “I always tell my performers ‘beware, we have no idea where it’s going to go,’” he said. “The very act of improv with a live audience that is coming to eat is so loose and has elements of chaos. There’s no structure or format.” Tickets to the show are $50 per person and include dinner, and can be reserved by calling 604-538-1964.

South Surrey’s Nathalie Heath will be competing for another week on CTV’s So You Think You Can Dance Canada, after she avoided elimination on Tuesday night’s episode. Heath, 23, and her dance partner, 20-yearold Mackenzie Green of Regina, were able to breathe easy after learning they weren’t ranked in the bottom three couples. The Earl Marriott grad is now one of 14 contestants in Toronto competing for the title of Canada’s favourite dancer. Things didn’t go as well for one of two other Surrey competitors, who were eliminated. Despite performing a passion-filled Rumba, Kirsten Wicklund, who attended Fraser Heights Secondary, was among the bottom three couples this week. After “dancing for their lives,” the judges revealed Wicklund, 20, and Ontario’s Jesse Weafer, 25, were leaving the show. Fourteen now remain, including Heath and fellow Surreyite Danielle Gardner, 21. Two competitors are eliminated each week, and one will take home the $100,000 prize. Next week, the Top 14 will take to the stage after working with choreographers Stacey Tookey, Melissa Williams, Sabrina Matthews, Gustavo Vargas and Danny Arbour. The show is moving to a new time slot, and will be aired Wednesday, Sept. 22 at 8 p.m.

Earl Marriott’s Bobby Devaney avoids a flying tackle from a Lord Tweedsmuir player during last Friday’s game.

Senior football team tackles Salmon Arm in second pre-season tilt

Mariners look to shake off rust Nick Greenizan Sports Reporter

After watching his team face off against local competition for the first time this season, Earl Marriott Mariners head football coach Michael MacKay-Dunn had one word to describe his senior squad. Adequate. Not exactly a glowing endorsement, but then again, last Friday’s 7-6 loss to the Lord Tweedsmuir Panthers was only the team’s first preseason contest of the season, so a little rust was not unexpected. Prior to Friday’s game, the team had only played exhibition tilts against American teams, during a 10-day tour of Alaska that began Aug. 25. “We didn’t come out of the chute very well, we were lagging,” MacKay-Dunn said. “But it’s tough coming off a trip like the one

we had, where you’re playing or practising every single day and everybody’s game is tight, and now you’re back to school and there are distractions. “You’ve got guys who are changing classes and trying to settle in to school, things like that, so we didn’t have a real good week of practice (leading up to the game).” The Mariners’ lone touchdown – which went unconverted – came from running backturned-quarterback Dan Lee, who scored on a 47-yard scramble. Lee was under centre because the team’s usual starting quarterback, Bobby Devaney, was sitting out after being injured earlier in the game. “With Bobby out, we basically just put Dan back there and ran the option (play),” MacKay-Dunn explained. Defensively, the Mariners were strong in holding the Panthers to just one TD.

“We played solid, adequate. It was a lowscoring game… some of that was defence, but there was also (rust),” MacKay-Dunn said. “But we just struggled on offence. We didn’t turn the ball over a lot, but we just had real trouble moving it upfield.” Despite the loss, the veteran coach was confident his team would be in better form when the regular season kicks off next week. “Oh, we’ve got some players. We might not have looked sharp – maybe a little ragged – in our first game, but we’ve got some good players here,” he said. The team will look to reverse its fortunes today (Friday) when they host Salmon Arm Secondary in an afternoon exhibition tilt. The game, which will be played at Cloverdale Athletic Park, is set for 1 p.m. The Mariners open the regular season next Friday, Sept. 24 against the Mount Douglas Rams in Victoria.

The Surrey Eagles’ lone all-star from last season is back in the fold. Forward Mike Krgovich was back practising with the team this week, but likely won’t be in the lineup when the Eagles hit the road this weekend for two games on Vancouver Island and another in Powell River. The 20-year-old Coquitlam native spent his summer playing junior ‘A’ lacrosse for the Coquitlam Adanacs. He missed Eagles’ training camp while helping the Adanacs capture the Minto Cup – awarded to the top junior lacrosse team in the country – and then took some time off to rest and consider his hockey options. Mike Krgovich Eagles head coach back with team Matt Erhart doubted Krgovich would be in the lineup immediately. For starters, he’s only been back on skates for a week; also, the team would need to open up a spot on the roster for him, if and when he suits up. Adding Krgovich would give Erhart seven 20-year-olds – one more than is allowed. “He’s in here practising with the guys. Before we make any moves, we want to make sure it’s a fit for everyone and make sure he’s ready,” Erhart said. “If we had a 20-year-old spot, it’d probably happen sooner, we’ll just continue to talk… but if I was a betting man, I’d say he probably won’t (play this weekend).” Last season for the Eagles, Krgovich had 17 goals and 53 points in 56 games, and was the team’s lone representative at the all-star game. He spent the 2008/09 season with the Eagles and Western Hockey League’s Chilliwack Bruins. Erhart admitted that having a seventh overage player skating with the team had the potential to cause some tension within the dressing room, but didn’t think it would become an issue. “It’s a bit difficult because there are guys in the room – even other forwards, not just 20-year-olds – who might worry. But all the guys here want to win, that’s the most important thing, and Mike brings a lot to our team,” Erhart said.

Titans rain supreme on soggy Sunday Neither the weather nor their opponents could stop the White Rock Titans last weekend. Hosting its annual Titans Day – in which each of the minor football club’s teams play on home turf – the Titans reeled off six wins and one tie during an action-packed, but rainsoaked, Sunday at South Surrey Athletic Park. The Titans’ first win of the day came courtesy of the flag division White Titans, who defeated the Coquitlam Crushers 12-6. Titans’ touchdowns were tallied by Luke Chakrabarti, Tanner Attew, Tajin Rai and Jacob Jordan-Knox. In other flag action, the Blue Titans played the Langley Bandits to a 15-15 tie. Beckham Dickie and Reid Turner each had a pair of TDs – which are worth three points in flag football – while Brandon Walton had one. In peewee, the White Titans evened their season record at 1-1 with a 36-0 victory over the Coquitlam Cougars, and the Blue Titans lost 38-12 to the Coquitlam Wildcats. Blue Titans’ Cameron Robinson and Michael Dowhaniuk each scored in a losing cause. The junior bantam and bantam Titans each put up big numbers on Sunday afternoon, with the junior bantams beating the Richmond Raiders 52-28 and the bantams shutting out the Cloverdale Leopards, 50-0. The White Rock-South Surrey midget Titans rebounded after a Week 1 loss to notch a 21-7 win over Richmond. The game was marred by turnovers by both sides, due largely to the slippery conditions and inclement weather.

Sharks lose to Old Boys Nick Greenizan Sports Reporter

Brian Giebelhaus photo

Junior bantam Titans’ Jonathon Smalley (left) evades a tackle from Richmond’s Jayden Bloom. Cole Meyer, Willie Watson and Nathan Leader scored for White Rock. Nate Huizinga also had a touchdown in the fourth quarter, but it was negated by a penalty on the play. Both White Rock’s atom division squads suffered losses earlier in the day. The White Titans lost 38-0 to the Langley Colts – Alejandro Cazorla was the Titans’ player-of-the-game – while the Blue Titans fell 40-6 to the Langley

Broncos. Quarterback Mathew Malczewksi had the Titans’ only TD, on a 14-yard run.

Titan notes

Four Titans, Beckham Dickie (flag division), Ivan Rojas (atom), Valen Garcia (peewee) and Tristan Geddes (junior bantam) were selected to represent the association at the B.C. Lions’ upcoming Punt, Pass and Kick contest.

The Bayside Sharks opened the fall elite men’s rugby schedule in much the same way as they finished the last – with a loss. Of course, by fielding a U24 side against premier-level competition, player development trumps wins and losses, even in a game as lopsided as last Saturday’s, a 51-5 loss against the UBC Old Boys at South Surrey Athletic Park. “They have pretty much a full premier team over there, and with us having so many young players, we knew it was going to be tough,” said head coach Brendan Singbeil. “There’s obviously still disappointment and frustration with a score like that, but I thought the guys handled it well. Something like that, hopefully it motivates you.” Spencer Thorpe scored the Sharks’ only try. Tackling was a main area of concern against the Old Boys, he added. “It was a bit of a problem. I know we were quite a bit smaller than they were, but we’ve got to be able to bring guys down on the deck.” Bayside is back at South Surrey Athletic Park this Saturday, for an afternoon game against Capilano. Game starts at 2:45 p.m., and will be preceded by a first division contest between the two teams at 1 p.m.

Team Rogue cyclists cross the Lions Gate Bridge Saturday morning, en route to Whistler.

Riders conquer GranFondo Two teams of cyclists based out of Peninsula Runners braved the elements – and the steep hills – at last Saturday’s GrandFondo Whistler, a team bike race from Vancouver to Whistler Village. The two local teams, dubbed Team Rogue 1 and Team Rogue 2, finished the race – which is 120 km in length, with 2,400 metres of climbing – unscathed, with Team Rogue 2 placing 44th

among 65 men’s teams, with a time of four hours, 44 minutes and 13 seconds. The GranFondo – Italian for “big ride” – is a team event, with each team’s time calculated by how long it took its top five riders to cross the finish line. Team Rogue 1 competed in the mixed division, in a time of 5:09:13. The fastest individual local

rider was Team Rogue 2’s Michael Vipond, who clocked a time of 4:24:03 – one second faster than teammate Eric Amey. Team Rogue 1’s top finisher was Andrew Brink, in 4:27:12. “It was a lot of fun – just a spectacular route to ride,” said Vipond. “ For full results, visit www. rbcgrandfondowhistler.com - Nick Greenizan

33 KUYEK, Peter

July 29, 1920 to Sept.12, 2010

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our dear father, grandfather and brother at the Peace Arch Hospital. Peter was predeceased by Lena his wife of 58 years, two sisters, Jennie and Mary, and his daughter in law Jennifer. He is survived by his son Donald and daughter Arlene (Rick), 4 grandchildren; Devlin (Alisha), Warren (Robyn), Clark (Lisa) and David, 6 great grandchildren; Una, Fanon, Harrison, Brooke, Trevor and Sierra. He also leaves behind his brothers John (Doreen), Joe (Esther), Alvin (Lily) and sisters Anne and Natalie. Peter was born in Bankend, Saskatchewan where he farmed for many years and pioneered the construction and operation of a hotel. He was a successful farmer and an outstanding member of the community. In 1979 Peter and Lena decided to move west and retire in White Rock, where they enjoyed golfing, traveling and worked tirelessly for their church. Peter will always be remembered for his kindness and generosity and will be missed by his family and friends. His 90th birthday was celebrated on July 29 of this year in Sicamous BC, with his children, grandchildren and great grandchildren who joined him from Sudbury, Montreal, Fort McMurray, Calgary and San Francisco. A celebration of Peter’s life will be held on Saturday, September 18th, at 2.00 pm. at Valley View Funeral Home, 14660-72 Avenue, Surrey, BC. In lieu of flowers donations in his memory can be made to the Peace Arch Hospital.
