Canine conundrum for city as it assesses public pet policy

No support for dogs on the promenade Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

A suggestion to allow dogs on White Rock’s promenade west of the pier from Sept. 15 to May 15 didn’t make it past the gate at Monday’s council meeting. The motion by Coun. Helen Fathers – posed following a delegation asking council to make the city, and particularly the promenade, more dog-friendly – received no support from other members of council, preventing the suggestion from even being discussed.

“No seconder – the motion’s lost,” Mayor Wayne Baldwin proclaimed. Disappointment with the result was audible from the approximately two dozen residents who turned out to the meeting hoping council would see fit to relax its dog rules on the waterfront. But it hasn’t lessened the resolve of those determined to improve access for owners. “Not giving up, not at all,” Mike Armstrong told Peace Arch News Wednesday. Armstrong, representing DOG White

Rock, presented to council the case for access. He told the politicians the issue was “not a yes or no question,” but about accommodating the estimated 40 per cent of White Rock residents who have dogs, as well as those who visit the city with their fourlegged friends. Citing statistics from cities that have added off-leash parks and other amenities for dog owners, Armstrong said benefits of such a move for White Rock would include improved tourism, increased revenue, less

poop and reduced crime. Armstrong noted the city’s existing bylaw – which director of planning and development services Paul Stanton described as “ambiguous and poorly written” – allows dogs on the grassy area east of the pier, to Cypress Street. Armstrong proposed that council move the allowable area – which Baldwin quipped was only legally accessible to dogs if they were brought in by boat or plane – to a less-populated stretch of waterfront west of the pier. see page 4

Population booms

Growth spurt for Surrey Jeff Nagel Black Press

Surrey and Port Moody were the fastest growing cities in Metro Vancouver in the 2011 Census, spurring the region’s population to grow rapidly. Double-digit growth was also recorded in Burnaby, Langley Township, New Westminster, Coquitlam, Pitt Meadows and Maple Ridge, according to data released Wednesday. Surrey’s population grew 18.6 per cent to 468,251, an increase of more than 73,000 since the previous count in 2006. Only Port Moody’s rate of growth was faster, climbing 19.9 per cent to 32,975 – this despite Port Moody city council’s decision a few years ago to restrict further development until the Evergreen Line SkyTrain extension is built. The City of Vancouver gained about 25,000 residents, or 4.4 per cent over the five-year period, to 603,502. Burnaby added 10.1 per cent to reach a population of 223,218 and is the Lower Mainland’s third-largest city after Vancouver and Surrey. see page 4

Keeping the faiths together for peace Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

An effort to promote love through sharing the beauties of different religions drew more than 200 people to Star of the Sea Community Centre Monday. “This was to create understanding of different religions,” Mohammad Aslam Shad, regional president of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community (AMC), said of the World Religions Conference. “There are more commonalities than there are differences.” Featuring a panel of religious scholars

representing five faiths – Buddhism (Myoshin Kate McCandless), Christianity (Father Edwin Kulling), Hindu (Suman Sharma), Islamic (Mohammad Afzal Mirza) and Sikhism (Sukvinder Kaur Vinning) – the conference was themed “Reconciling Existence of God and Human Suffering.” The event’s roots date back 116 years to when the first forum was organized by AMC. Today in B.C., about two dozen are held each year. Following a chance for each panelist to give their perspective on the theme, questions from the audience ranged from whether

suffering is simply a part of the evolutionary process, to “Is it possible for a murderer to get into heaven in your religion?” To the latter, Sharma said the cause must be considered first; Mirza said it depends whether the subject can be reformed. In Christianity, “there is no unforgiven sin,” Kulling said. “But… the person has to repent.” Shad said the exercise was a healthy one. “There can be no peace among the nations without having peace among the religions and there can be no peace in the religions without having dialogue,” he said.

Drug wars in places like Mexico have left thousands of people dead, and the fight over control of the trade in the Vancouver area seems to be once again reaching the crescendo that we saw in early 2009. All levels of government need to develop a co-ordinated approach to this issue, and all options need to be on the table. Should marijuana be regulated and sold in government outlets? When prohibition ended in the U.S. in 1933, it took mobsters out of the liquor business, but with their profits, they found many others to go into. The federal, provincial and local governments all have a role to play in this issue. Surrey may be somewhat safer due to the electrical inspections, but Surrey youth are still getting into gangs. Some of them are dying, while others are wounded in shootings like the one on Tuesday. Still others destroy the lives of many innocent people, including their own families. This is a comprehensive issue that needs full attention, and a willingness to look at innovative ideas. The electrical safety inspections were an innovative idea, and have been successful. Are there more such ideas on the horizon to help end the drug wars and perhaps save the lives of some young people? Frank Bucholtz writes Thursdays for the Peace Arch News.

news April date cited for connections from White Rock through Grandview, Campbell Heights

24 Ave bus access to Langley en route Alex Browne Staff Reporter

Christine Allen wrote to the Peace Arch News asking that people caught in a ‘no bus zone’ in South Surrey be given a break by TransLink. She was stunned to learn – the same day her letter was published (Feb. 7) – that her issue is to be addressed with a new bus route that will begin connecting Grandview Heights and the Campbell Heights business park with both White Rock and Langley in late April. “I sent the letter to TransLink, and the City of Surrey and the mayor (Dianne Watts) and anyone else I could think of,” she said, adding the most she’d hoped for was raising awareness of a long-standing issue.

Allen – who wrote contrasting the $1.4 billion TransLink is projected to spend on the Evergreen Line in Coquitlam with a lack of bus service to the newly populous area south of Highway 10 and east of Highway 99 – said she wasn’t expecting the direct response she received from the City of Surrey. Transportation planner Don Buchanan emailed her back to say the city has been advocating with TransLink for new services for residents, and giving details of the new bus service, in the middle of the ‘no bus zone’ she referred to. According to Buchanan, the new route will run from central White Rock up 152 Street, then east on 24 Avenue to 192 Street, where it will travel north to 32 Avenue, then east to

200 Street and north to the Langley Centre exchange. TransLink representatives did not respond to requests for confirmation of the route by press time. Ironically Allen, a Peninsula resident since 1975, doesn’t live in the ‘no bus zone.’ “But I have friends in that area and it’s been frustrating,” she said. “When my kids were younger, I was driving them there all the time, and to get to Langley, where they have friends, would take close to two hours by bus with transfers. “It seems silly, when they’re getting the Evergreen Line in Coquitlam, you look at the transportation maps for down here and there are big black holes.”

She described the new route as “a good start,” but one that will not solve all transportation problems in the area. Service to 32 and 16 avenues is still limited, she said. “And there a lot of people living on 20 Avenue for whom it’ll be a hike up to 24 Avenue.” She said extensive service to 24 Avenue has been a long time coming. This is not the first time one of her letters has seemed to obtain speedy results, Allen noted with a chuckle. “I wrote a letter two years ago about the fact there were no buses to Grandview Centre, and, sure enough, two weeks later there was an announcement buses were coming there,” she said. “What else should I write about?”

Surrey fire chief credits Electrical Fire Safety Initiative with decrease

‘Significant reduction’ in Surrey grow-ops Kevin Diakiw Black Press

The number of pot grow-ops found in Surrey has dropped by 82 per cent in the last four years. Surrey fire Chief Len Garis has released his annual report on the Electrical Fire Safety Initiative (EFSI), which has been instrumental in shutting down marijuana grow operations in the city. The pilot program began in 2005 and started in earnest two years later, when 445 grow-ops were found. Since then, between 100 and 150 have been uncovered annually, with only 82 grow operations discovered last year. Garis realizes that doesn’t mean the problem has gone away. Instead, he says, criminals are adapting to the measures being undertaken to find them.

BC Hydro reports any home that has three times the average daily energy usage and the EFSI team kicks into gear, placing a 72-hour notice of inspection on the door of the prop-

erty. If a grow-op exists, people usually pick up their plants and leave. Garis now thinks some of the growers are remaining under the threshold to avoid

Signs of a marijuana grow operation: • Residents rarely appear to be home and attend the house for brief periods of time. The radio and televisions are left on. Mail delivery is left unchecked and junk mail piles up. • Visitors come and go at odd hours and may behave strangely. • Entry to the home is usually through the garage or a back entrance. • The exterior of the home is often untidy, with uncut grass, used soil and plastic pots. • Windows are boarded or covered and may have a layer of condensation. • Equipment such as large fans, lights and plastic plant containers are carried into the home. • Sounds of construction or electrical humming can be heard. Strange odours (a skunklike smell) emanate from the house. • Hydro metres are tampered with, and signs of digging are found near the hydro box. • The neighbourhood experiences localized surges or decreases in power. • The property has warning signs, such as “Beware of Dog” or “Guard Dog.” (www.surrey.ca)

detection by growing smaller crops and using more effective means of lighting. He couldn’t say for sure how many growops remain in Surrey, or how much the EFSI has reduced them, except to say anecdotally, he believes the reduction has been quite significant. Garis, the architect of the EFSI program, is working on other high-tech means to disrupt the indoor plantations. He is working with a company called Telops to develop spectral analysis that can spot byproducts specific to marijuana growops and methamphetamine labs. Until that time, Garis is viewing results from the latest report as a win for his teams and a boon for the community. “We’re not getting complaints from the public. We’re not seeing fires like we used to,” Garis said. “And that means a safer community as far as I’m concerned.”

Issue must be dealt with: Baldwin from page 1 While Fathers’ motion was not supported, Baldwin said the issue has “got to be dealt with in some fashion.” He asked for staff to look at and clarify the bylaw, and confirmed the topic of improved access for dogs could be part of a community forum regarding the waterfront that is planned for April. Armstrong said Wednesday he was surprised more definitive action was not supported, particularly since the majority of the current council indicated support for it pre-election. At a Nov. 2 all-candidates meeting, “they all put up their hands”

except Couns. Grant Meyer and Al Campbell, he said. “Some of them now are forgetting what they put their hands up to,” he said. “Call me naive, but I thought that at least they would throw some initial trial of something. But there was nothing. Nobody even wanted to suggest Helen (Fathers) modify it.” During question period, prior to Armstrong’s delegation, two residents raised the issue. Eva Hompoth – who has organized a dog walk from city hall (15322 Buena Vista Ave.) in support of the cause for noon Sunday – asked why there is no off-

leash park in the city. “That’s a good question,” Baldwin responded, noting the issue is identified in the city’s parks plan as “something that should be looked at.” Susan Potzold spoke against allowing dogs on the promenade, asking if the facility were to open to the pets, “would council allow me to ride my bike on the promenade?” Potzold said she is concerned that allowing dogs on the waterfront could lead to the same issue that arose for the Semiahmoo First Nation at Semiahmoo Park, where many dog owners neglected to clean up after their pets.

Surrey not expected to sustain rate from page 1 White Rock is up 3.1 per cent to 19,339. Surrey accounted for one-quarter of the provincial gain and 37 per cent of Metro Vancouver’s. Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts predicted her city is on track to pass Vancouver’s population in as little as 10 years. Although Surrey gained nearly 50,000 residents more than Vancouver, not everyone is convinced it will be B.C.’s biggest city any time soon. Urban Futures demographer Ryan Berlin said Surrey would pass Vancouver in about 15 years

if the pace of the last five continues. “But will development in 15 years in Surrey be of the same scale and nature as it is today?” Berlin asked. “Probably not. So it probably won’t be 15 years. I think we’re looking at a couple of decades before Surrey passes Vancouver.” The council policies of both cities is also a factor, he said, noting Surrey could opt to slow the pace of greenfield development and Vancouver might push harder to densify existing neighbourhoods, despite resident opposition. Berlin said the most interesting

population changes in the Lower Mainland were the strong gains posted by Squamish and Chilliwack. The two outlying cities are about a 40-minute drive away from Metro Vancouver and offer much lower land prices than Vancouver, he said. “I think that’s why they experienced pretty significant growth – above what we experienced provincially and here in the Lower Mainland,” he said. “Instead of raising your kids in an apartment in Vancouver, maybe you choose a two-bedroom house, yard, swing set, Mr. Turtle pool – that kind of thing.”

news Nearly 200 cancer-screening cases affected by mistake

Agency fumbled patient files patients were all properly evaluated and advised of findings by counsellors at the time they were assessed. “In some cases, the next step – sending a letter back to the referring physician and outlining our recommendation – that did not occur,” she said. As a result, the agency is following up to make sure the patients and their relatives are informed. The program has already reached 188 affected patients and it’s searching for the remaining four. All of their physicians have been contacted. Anyone who was assessed by the program at the three sites in the second half of 2010 and have not yet been contacted is asked to call 604-877-6000 local 2198. “The agency and the program are very concerned that this happened,” McGillivray said.

Black Press

The BC Cancer Agency has fired a staff member it says mishandled nearly 200 files and potentially delayed screening of people identified as genetically predisposed to cancer. The compromised cases involve 192 patients who used the Hereditary Cancer Program at cancer agency sites in Surrey, Abbotsford and Vancouver between August and December of 2010. The program provides counseling and referrals for genetic testing for patients whose family histories suggest they may be predisposed to develop cancer. Because of incomplete documentation of the files, referring physicians may not have been properly notified of any findings. Dr. Barb McGillivray, the program’s medical director, said

But she stressed the risk of harm to the patients is “minimal” because the Hereditary Cancer Program does not directly diagnose and treat patients. The service typically involves determining timelines for future screening or tests, and potential preventative measures. Genetic testing does not diagnose cancer but may indicated the presence of a mutation that is known to increase the patient’s likelihood of developing cancer. A spokesperson for the Provincial Health Services Authority said the matter is being taken “very seriously” and an investigation is underway. “BC Cancer Agency and PHSA apologize and sincerely regret any stress or anxiety this situation may have caused the clients and physicians involved,” the authority said in a statement.

editorial

Legal driving age could use boost he teenage boy who died in the head-on collision early Sunday in Maple Ridge was violating conditions of his driver’s learning permit. Dawson Spencer, 17, was driving a Dodge mini-van, with two male passengers, when it crossed the centre line and collided with a car carrying three young girls. One of them, 18-yearold Crystal Weaver – stepdaughter of City of White Rock employee Al Tulev – also died. Police said the van was weaving in and out of traffic prior to the crash. Police also said speed and inexperience were factors, and have not ruled out whether alcohol played a part. It’s not known if Spencer had permission to be driving the van. But regardless, he shouldn’t have even been driving after midnight, based on restrictions under ICBC’s graduated licensing program. Nor should he have had any passengers with him. Drivers with learners’ permits must be accompanied by a fully licensed driver over the age of 25, and can only drive between 5 a.m. and midnight. The female driver of the other vehicle in the crash was a novice, under ICBC regulations, and shouldn’t have had more than one passenger either. Of course, people aren’t supposed to drink and drive or speed, or talk on cell phones or text while driving. But they do, despite statistics that show why we shouldn’t. B.C. introduced the graduated licensing program for a reason, to reduce fatalities among young drivers. And it has worked. Since it was introduced in 1998, fatal crashes involving drivers 15 to 19 years old have fallen 65 per cent. But it doesn’t go far enough. Teens can’t vote or drink until they’re 19; a 16-year-old can’t even see an R-rated movie alone. Yet, they can drive dad’s car. Vehicle crashes are the leading cause of death among teenagers, and Lower Mainland roads are cluttered with roadside memorials. Speeding is often to blame, as is alcohol, inexperience, immaturity. Perhaps the legal age to drive in B.C. should be raised to at least 18, as it is in many other countries. In the African nation of Niger, it’s 23. It may not seem fair to penalize all young drivers because of poor decisions of a few, but bumping the legal driving age up a few years is an option worth exploring. The risk of giving teens a license drive is too great, the consequences too often, as we’ve just seen, tragic.

much-smaller incision in my eye? Uh… The smaller opening means that rather than a six-week recovery time, I’ll be up and seeing in just a day or two. Only $350 a lens. Sounds convincing, even for a penny pincher like me… Also, you won’t need stitches in your eyeball. Sold! I prepare to sign, but as I first ponder how it’s cheaper for the medical system to give me eyeball stitches and six weeks of increased chance for complications, I’m asked a followup question. Do I drive at night? Sure… ’Cause if I drive at night, I might consider the lenses that cut down on glare – $450 a pop. Oh. And am I interested in the multi-focal lenses that eliminate the need for glasses for nine out of 10 users – at $2,500 an eye? Ay yi yi! Tough choices all around. Especially for those of us who still hope to find some good things to see in the years ahead. While I didn’t opt for top-of-the-line, I did chooses a stitch-free option and I am curious whether nearly all opt to pay for some sort of upgrade. Seeing as how the lowest tier seems impractical and potentially expensive, I also wonder if the system would be a little better off eliminating it from the roster. Of course, I’m not seeing things too clearly right now. Check back with me in a few days. Lance Peverley is the editor of the Peace Arch News.

letters Peace Arch News

Measuring up the opposition Editor: It is often said that the vocal minority can appear to make a majority. In the case of smart metering, I believe that is exactly what has been happening. An extremely vocal minority has been very adamantly opposed to smart metering and has been making such a protest, people are assuming everyone is opposed. We live in a world filled with electronic signals. The very laptop I am writing this letter on is currently connected to the Internet via Wi-Fi. Practically everyone uses a cellphone at some point during the week. The amount of transmission time a smart meter is going to put out is trivial in comparison to the set of signals already out there. The reality of smart metering is that it will enable BC Hydro to more effectively allocate resources. By having a better understanding of usage patterns, the right amount of electricity can be fed to the grid when needed. Hydro doesn’t know minute by minute what your usage is, it knows that in the morning you used X kWh and so on. Smart metering will enable end users to have a meter in their home with an hour-by-hour – or even real-time – display of their consumption. That data is entirely optional to produce and only sent to your device, not to Hydro. Much like many of us have learned to drive smarter and save on gas with the “fuel economy” gauge in our cars. I just had my smart meter installed this past week and I look forward to being able to reduce my consumption by understanding just how much electricity my household produces. Smart metering is a controversial topic; indeed there is some legitimate concern. However, to claim that the vast majority of citizens are opposed to it based on a few letters to the editor is absurd. Andrew Wallwork, White Rock

gathered at our church to “roll ’em up” for the local South Surrey/ White Rock Food Bank, which is operated under the caring community services umbrella of Sources Community Resource Centre – www.sourcesbc.ca This ministry at Mount Olive Lutheran Church has been ongoing for about eight years and is an outreach to local people in need. We have found it can be easily facilitated by any community individuals or as a group. A jar is labelled “Coins From Heaven” – call it what you wish – and placed where individuals or the group can easily access it and as often as they gather, just watch what happens! Before those pennies, and all coins, are worth nothing at all, we’ve decided to get them out of the jars and bags in our dresser drawers and kitchen cupboards and into the hands of someone for whom they can be beneficial. We first began this program on the challenge seen in your newspaper from a church further down the road, the name and location of which is long forgotten, but likely the food-bank recipients haven’t forgotten the help they received from those dollars. We are blessed to be a blessing to others and to be in a position to share the wealth, even if it is only coins, as they sure add up. Our recent donation was $342.25 toward fresh produce and the like.

Editor: In Canada, as in the U.K., the military and entities like the RCMP are required to take an oath of fealty or allegiance to the Crown. This is to distinguish between the sovereign head of state, the Queen, and the political head of government, and is to keep them apart from political questions or potential abuse. “The Harper Government,” Conservative Party, wants to be represented whenever an MP or senator asks for a meeting with the RCMP, according to Sen. Colin Kenny in news reports. How is this not interference with the independence of the RCMP, violation of parliamentary privilege and the ability of members of Parliament to fulfil their responsibilities in Parliament – in short, a further instance of contempt of Parliament – and a violation of the principle of the rule of law? Members of the RCMP take an Oath of Allegiance to the Crown, not to the government of the day. Is not this “communications strategy” a direct violation of the Oath of Allegiance with its declaration of fealty to the Canadian monarch, H.M. Queen Elizabeth II? Brian Marlatt, White Rock

perspectives …on the Semiahmoo Peninsula

Ethan Burge is just a normal kid who happens to have dwarfism

A little person with big plans ahead Dan Ferguson

Notable little people

T

Staff Reporter

he day Ethan Burge reached 44 inches in height, the 10-year-old checked the mark on the wall of his Langley home, let out a whoop of joy and ran to inform his mother that he was now tall enough to go on the rides at Disneyland. That was when Wendy Burge learned her youngest son possessed an iPod app that displays the ride types, anticipated wait times and height requirements at the famous theme park. For Ethan, a little person who has dwarfism, overcoming the height limit was a big moment. In the four months since then, the freckle-faced Grade 5 student has been waging a relentless charm offensive to convince his family to visit Disneyland during their upcoming summer vacation. When his mother pointed out they were planning to visit relatives in Germany this year, Ethan smiled his warmest smile. “You know Germany is next to Paris,” he said. “And you know what’s in Paris.” He didn’t have to say Euro Disney. Ethan believes most obstacles can be overcome. Case in point: when spinal complications from his dwarfism required him to spend more than three years in a back brace, Ethan discovered that he could still use playground slides by lying flat on his back and using his momentum at the bottom to land on his feet. “It was tricky,” he says. The brace came off four years ago. These days, Ethan likes to demonstrate his recovery and make jaws drop by breaking out flashy dance moves that showcase his speed and balance. He demonstrates for a visitor by moving from a standing position to a handstand in one quick, smooth move. “I’m not a sports kid, I’m a dance kid,” he says.

The list of successful and notable little people is a long one which includes: Kenny Baker, who operated the R2-D2 “droid” in the Star Wars films; Tamara Detro, one of the performers who operated the E.T. alien in the Steven Spielberg film of the same name, Peter Dinklage, who portrays Tyrion Lannister in the Game of Thrones hit television series, Charla Baklayan Faddoul, a two-time competitor on the Amazing Race reality-TV show, Verne Troyer, who played Mini-Me in the Austin Powers movies, famous sex therapist Dr. Ruth Westheimer, former WWE cruiserweight champion “Hornswoggle” and Australian senator Dr. Alan Eggleston.

Ethan Burge sits with his mom, Wendy. The 10-year-old says he would like to be a filmmaker one day. His mother fondly describes him as a “Dennis-the-menace” type who has been known to break things like towel racks by using them as impromptu grab handles. One of Ethan’s favorite things is kicking back in a comfy chair and watching movies with dad Thomas on a big-screen television, with a soda in one hand and licorice in the other. He’s had to temporarily give up popcorn because he just got braces. When Ethan watches a movie, he is often interested in behindthe-scenes information, like the name of the director and other production details. “I just want to see how everything is made,” he says.

One day, he thinks he’d like to work in the industry, making the kinds of films he likes to watch. Dwarfism, as defined by the Mayo Clinic, refers to people who reach an adult height of 58 inches or less (147 centimeters). The average adult height of people with dwarfism is 48 inches (122 cm). Most people with the medical condition prefer to be called little persons. The words “dwarf ” and “midget” are considered insulting. Ethan has a condition known as achondroplasia, in which a person’s arms and legs are disproportionately short in relation to their torso. People with achondroplasia are usually of normal intelligence and

live normal life spans, but like Ethan, often have to cope with bone-related health problems. According to statistics gathered by the Little People of America (LPA) nonprofit society, achondroplasia occurs in one out of every 26,000 to 40,000 births. About 80 per cent of people with achondroplasia are born to parents of average height. Asked what he would tell people about himself if he had the chance, Ethan doesn’t hesitate. “I am a normal kid who just happens to have dwarfism,” he says. Next month (March), Ethan and his mom plan to attend the opening of a fundraising event for little people being co-ordinated

Firefighters add to charity White Rock firefighters will return to the Hero’s Panel this weekend in support of Variety The Children’s Charity. Four uniformed members of the Local 2407 crew – along with Mayor Wayne Baldwin – will take pledges from 10 a.m. to noon Feb. 12 during the 46th Annual Variety Children’s Charity Show of Hearts Telethon, broadcast live on Global BC. It will be the firefighters’ second year taking part in the fundraiser, which gets underway at 7 p.m. Feb. 11 and benefits B.C. children who have special needs. But it is not the first time their efforts have benefitted Variety. In September 2010, the firefighters spent two weeks cycling across Canada in support of the charity, raising tens of thousands of dollars for the cause. The Show of Hearts is Variety’s biggest fundraiser, generating millions of dollars every year. Last year, the telethon raised $7,012,483. For more information, visit www.variety.bc.ca/ teethon.htm To phone in a donation over the coming weekend, call 310-KIDS (5437); no area code is needed.

In 2005, my friend gave me an enduring power of attorney. He has been mentally incapable since 2007. Although there was nothing in writing I knew that he was interested in supporting a charity where we both volunteered. I annually gave $10,000 from his account to the charity, which amounted to about 20% of his income. Last week a woman at my bridge club told me that I can’t continue to do this. I would like to set her straight so please conÀrm that I am doing the right thing.

lifestyles Calendar brings in more than $2,000

Raising more than eyebrows Sarah Massah Staff Reporter

Paul McDonough says he still can’t believe the reaction he’s received since stripping down and posing around White Rock in late November. The Marine Drive restaurant owner said there has been nothing but positive feedback for his project – a nude calendar featuring himself, his staff and friends in various stages of undress, all to raise funds for prostate cancer. “The reaction completely took us by surprise,� said McDonough, who owns Jimmy Flynn’s Celtic Snug. “It was really wellreceived.� The calendar, which went on sale in early December, was the suggestion of McDonough’s friend

File image

A story on Paul McDonough’s calendar project was published in Peace Arch News in November. and photographer Elke Tobisch, who had heard McDonough and friends talk about a way to raise money for the disease after the recent diagnosis’ of friends and family.

Initially, the goal was to raise $300, but strong community support meant they were able to raise far more than that. “We raised $2,500 in total. To be able to say you raised that much,

it’s unbelievable,� he said. McDonough said he was able to keep costs down because of the support he received from Buchanan Printing, who designed and printed the calendars at a discount. “They did it all for $2.50 each. They really stepped up to the plate,� he said. Half the proceeds were donated to the White Rock/South Surrey Hospice Society with the other half going to the BC Prostate Cancer Foundation On Jan. 17, former mayor and new executive director of the hospice society Catherine Ferguson and members of the cancer foundation were on-hand at Jimmy Flynn’s to accept the cheques for the donation.

‘Amazing’ response for Relay for Life The relay challenges participants to come together to celebrate cancer survivors, remember loved ones and raise funds. To date, 15 teams have signed up. Longtime relay participant Sue Scott, a City of White Rock employee who lost her husband to cancer in 2004, knows firsthand how important such events are. “Relay is a fun, rewarding event that is so effortless and gives all participants the opportunity to meet new friends, spend the night in a safe environment, walk at your leisure with new friends, raise funds for the cause and walk away in the morning knowing you made a difference in the cure,” she said in a release.

‘Expressions of Love Bouquet’

Kevin Diakiw Black Press

When it comes to poop, Surrey’s 127,000 pups are extremely productive. In fact, according to recent figures, they generate 48 tons (43,354 kilograms, or 95,580 pounds) of excrement every day. That’s the equivalent weight of more than 20 pickup trucks. A Mustel Group market research study has found there are 127,440 dogs in the city. With the average dog generating less than halfa-kilogram of waste every day (according to a recent U.S. Environmental Protection Agency report), the volume of dog poop becomes a waste disposal issue. Leaving it in place is not an option as it poses a health hazard. As such, the fine in Surrey for failing to “scoop” after a dog is $200. But either Surrey dog owners are extremely good about picking up poop, or connecting the evidence to the culprit is difficult, because Surrey doesn’t hand out many tickets for dumping dogs and their derelict owners. In the first nine months of last year, 28 people were nabbed for having dogs at large in Surrey, and

City of Surrey staff are considering plans to eliminate excessive dog poop from its parks and public spaces. six dogs were found with no tag. Failing to fetch feces didn’t even make the top-10 list. David Justice, who walks his dog, Sunny, every day at Freedom Park in Fleetwood, says the majority of dog poop is being left on the ground. In the back trails at Freedom Park, Justice says there’s a “steaming heap” every few feet. “It’s just disgusting,” he says. “They should pick up the goddamn stuff.” What happens to the rest of it? City staff acknowledge that it ends up in a variety of places –

some is left where it lands, some is flushed down the toilet, and some is put into garbage cans and eventually taken to the landfill. The ideal situation, staff say, is to flush dog poop down the toilet, where it would undergo the same treatment as human waste. Parks manager Owen Croy said the city will soon be exploring ways to compost canine waste. “We’re looking at best practices from other communities, how to use biodegradable bags (and)... have a composting program that works,” Croy said.

The

Professionals fessionals On The Peninsula The breakthrough new way to SCULPT YOUR BODY! is pleased to have been chosen to be able to offer the treatment. How it works: As temperatures plunge, fat cells freeze long before muscle, skin or any other tissue does! Zeltiq Coolsculpting takes advantage of this by chilling fat deposits to around 45 degrees. “Damaged, frozen fat cells can’t be repaired by the body, so they’re smoothing out even stubborn fat pads within two to four months” says dermatologist Mark S. Nestor, M.D., Director of the Center for Cosmetic Enhancement in Miami, Florida. And specific troublespots can be easily targeted! What to expect: Zeltiq Coolsculpting takes about one hour per treated area. Since no anaesthetics, needles, or incisions are needed you can head back to your normal activities right away; there is no downtime. Treated areas tend to look red and feel a bit stiff for about 20 minutes, and some patients experience temporary bruising, numbness, or tenderness.

What studies show: “Zeltiq removes 20% - 25% of the fat from treated areas, but patients say their troublespots actually shrink 40% - 50%.” “It’s producing better results than the research had predicted. Patients love it!” The catch: If you’re obese, you will not be happy with this treatment, notes Caree Ludwar, owner of New Beauty Institute. “It’s meant for people who are close to their ideal body weight and want to get rid of stubborn pockets of fat - the sort of thing that wrecks the way clothing fits. However, we have had very good results with larger belly areas on some patients.”

business Employer says professional caregiver Robin Moran has a ‘gift’

‘Robin Redbreast’ lauded for work with seniors Dan Ferguson

R

Staff Reporter

obin Moran was recently recognized as caregiver of the year by her employer, Home Instead Senior Care, a White-Rock-based company that provides assistance to elderly people. During an interview with Peace Arch News about her award, Moran, a Cloverdale resident, said her clients tend to fall into one of two categories. There are those who have developed age-related cognitive problems who require supervision, and there are those whose mental faculties are fine, but need help coping with physical frailties. Like the irascible octogenarian woman who had gone blind and had tried for a while to cope by placing carpet mats around her home, indoors and out, as navigational aids. The woman’s family hired Moran to care for her, and it was a sometimes difficult experience for both the woman, an independent soul, and Moran, who had to weather her client’s occasional displays of bad temper. Every now and then, she says, the woman would get so frustrated that she would try to dismiss Moran. “You’re fired,” the woman would say. “You don’t pay me enough money

Over time, the stubborn client and feisty caregiver worked things out. The older lady learned how to maneuver through stores and streets despite her vision impairment. “Sometimes, you find that people

can do more than they think,” Moran says. The two women became friends, and the client nicknamed the upbeat Moran “Robin Redbreast.” It may have been a reference to the traditional English rhyme of “Little Robin Red Breast,” a

feisty bird who is unfazed when confronted by a cat. When her client finally passed away, Moran went to her funeral. Moran says clients who have their wits about them can be challenging, but nothing like a person suffering from Alzheimer’s

or other form of dementia. One male client with dementia once got so angry with Moran that she had to, literally, run away. For about five minutes. By then, the client had calmed down and completely forgotten all about being mad at her. “Hey, how are you doing?” Moran said on her return. “OK,” the man said. “Want to go for a walk?” “OK.” And off they went. Moran, a mother of three and grandmother of five, tried retirement, but it didn’t suit her. After a stay in Mexico, she ended up back in B.C. where she spotted an ad for professional caregivers. Her boss, Wes Colby, says Moran has a “gift” for working with older people. “You can train someone forever, but if they don’t have that gift, it’s never going to work out,” Colby says. “It’s a calling.” Moran has worked in Surrey, White Rock and Langley for the last seven years and has several long term clients. “Balancing the demands of childrearing and careers while taking care of their senior loved ones can take its toll on a family,” Colby said. “Caregivers can serve as a respite to families and help seniors remain independent for as long as possible.”

news Woman was awaiting sentencing for stuffing body into plastic tote

Faked pregnancy ended parole for Surrey mother Dan Ferguson Staff Reporter

A Surrey Provincial Court judge jailed Renee Chelsea Leblanc last month after the 39-year-old mother of eight falsely claimed to be pregnant again to excuse her failure to meet with a probation officer. Leblanc was facing jail after admitting she stuffed the body of her tenant, 67-yearold Irving Bell, into a plastic tote in October 2008. She pleaded guilty in March 2010 to one count of interfering with a dead body, but was allowed to go free on $1,000 bail until her sentencing hearing. But that bail was revoked and Leblanc was imprisoned after she failed to show up for two scheduled meetings with her probation officer in December. Details of the court ruling revoking her parole were published online today (Thursday).

According to the written transcript of the Jan. 9 hearing, Leblanc claimed she could not attend the December meetings because she had just given birth to a baby boy by C-section at B.C. Children’s Hospital in Vancouver. She claimed she carried her new baby for the foster parents of her eighth child, a boy who was seized by the Ministry of Children and Family Development after he was born last Feb. 22. Her story did not stand up. The foster parents denied any agreement to have her carry a baby for them, and there was no record of Leblanc giving birth or even staying at the hospital when she claimed. On hearing that, Surrey Provincial Court Judge Michael Hicks revoked her bail. â€œâ€ŚMs. Leblanc has not been forthright with the court, and particularly has not been forthright

in recent times in respect to the birth of a child, and has used obfuscation to delay the process of bringing this matter to a conclusion‌,â€? Hicks said. Just over two weeks later, the same judge sentenced Leblanc to 21 months in jail, to be followed by three years probation. During court proceedings, Leblanc’s daughter testified for the prosecution that she, and her mother had discussed different ways of disposing of a human body after Bell died in their Whalley home. It happened on Oct. 5, 2008, when the daughter was 11 years old. On that day, Bell phoned 911 and said he was “getting killed.â€? By the time police arrived, Leblanc had dragged the man’s body underneath a pile of laundry. The officers left after Leblanc told them the call was a prank.

The next day, using Bell’s bank card, she bought a large plastic tote. The day after that, Leblanc got her daughter to help her wrap Bell’s body in plastic and stow it in the tote.

Personal flag flown Monday

Province marks Queen’s 60 years Tom Fletcher Black Press

VICTORIA – Queen Elizabeth II’s personal Canadian flag is usually flown above the B.C. legislature only during her visits, a tradition that was added to Monday to mark her 60th year on the throne. The flag was raised at the legislature at sunrise, commemorating Feb. 6, 1952 when Elizabeth II began her reign after her father King George VI died. Elizabeth II is now the longest-serving British monarch after Queen Victoria. Premier Christy Clark issued a statement congratulating the Queen on the occasion. “Her Majesty is no stranger to British Columbia,â€? Clark said. “She has visited more than a dozen cities, towns and communities during her four tours to our province, including in 1971 to mark the centennial anniversary of B.C. joining Confederation.â€? In Ottawa, Gov. Gen. David Johnston presented the Queen Elizabeth Diamond Jubilee Medal to 60 Canadians for public service. B.C. recipients included: • Tomas Avendano of Vancouver for his work with new immigrants • Barney Ellis-Perry of North Vancouver for work with Volunteer Canada • Darrell Fox of Vancouver for continuing the cancer research and education of his brother Terry Fox • Maureen Shaw of Victoria for her leadership in occupation health and safety and education for manufacturing workers • Master Seaman Christopher Mark Switzer of Victoria for his contributions to the Royal Canadian Navy and local charities • Lauren Woolstencroft of North Vancouver for her contribution to alpine skiing and the Paralympics.

B.C. shifts policy for liquefied natural gas Tom Fletcher Black Press

The B.C. government is relaxing the electricity self-sufficiency policy that has driven expansion of independent power projects, and put the focus on new electricity supply for a major expansion of liquefied natural gas exports. Premier Christy Clark made the announcement Friday in Burnaby. The self-sufficiency policy set in 2008 required BC Hydro to supply the province’s needs even in the lowest-water years when large hydroelectric reservoirs run low and B.C. has to import power. The new policy requires BC Hydro to be self-sufficient only in average-water years, and will lead to the purchase of more imported power in years of low snow and rainfall. B.C.’s announcement comes the day after the National Energy Board approved an export permit for B.C.’s second LNG facility near Kitimat. Chinese, Korean and Canadian energy

Christy Clark visits with industrial instrumentation apprentices at BCIT before making her announcement. companies have invested in the first two projects, and Shell has proposed a third. LNG production requires huge refrigeration and compression plants. The B.C. government estimates that with new electricity development it can power two plants. B.C. is joining a rush of LNG production aimed at taking advantage of high prices paid by Asian importers.

“Before I came to Dr. Nelson, my teeth showed the effects of many years of neglect, and I was not quick to smile. Also, it was difÀcult to chew food and was painful and frustrating and the reason I avoided dentists. After Dr. Nelson and the rest of his team worked on me, my teeth not only look great, but they also feel great. As far as the surgery goes, it was a minor event and the implants are just like my own teeth. If it is decided that implants are the best thing for you, or if something else is required, you will have the procedure explained and they will answer any questions you may have. As I said before, my teeth look and feel great and eating is a joy again. I now have a ready smile and people notice that.” –Alfred R.

More vaccine doses are being stockpiled in case an outbreak of whooping cough in the eastern Fraser Valley spreads further west. Hope, Agassiz and Chilliwack have so far seen most of the more than 100 confirmed local cases of pertussis, a highly contagious bacterial infection that causes adults to cough for months but can be deadly to babies. Fraser Health will acquire another 50,000 doses of vaccine by the second week of February in case public health officials decide to widen their immunization program. “We’ve seen sporadic cases in Maple Ridge, in Langley and in Surrey, so we know there’s some disease out there,” Chief Medical Health Officer Dr. Paul Van Buynder. “If it’s necessary in the next week or two we will run a program for the whole of the Fraser Valley.” Pertussis, or whooping cough, is considered more of an irritant for adults, but they act as carriers. Van Buynder said about half the very young children who contract pertussis are hospitalized and about one or two

per cent of those hospitalized die. “This is a nasty disease and it’s back in the Fraser Valley after an absence of about eight years,” Van Buynder said. Part of the challenge is that health authorities no longer use an older, more powerful vaccine due to concern over its side effects. The weaker vaccine that replaced it provides immunity for only about four to 10 years, Van Buynder said. Fraser Health wants to immunize all adults in outbreak areas who have close contact with young children, to prevent transmission. The new vaccine takes at least three doses to fully protect a child, he said, so Fraser Health is now vaccinating them earlier – as young as 14 weeks. Pregnant women are also being vaccinated, Van Buynder said, because it’s safe to use during pregnancy and immunity will extend to the newborn. Cases of pertussis in the eastern Valley took off in mid-December in Hope and nearby First Nations reserves. “We’ve started to see the spread of it down the Fraser Valley moving westward,” Van Buynder said, adding the most recent cases have been in Chilliwack.

Susanne de Pencier ‘pleasantly surprised’ at caliber of Drinking Alone auditions

Casting is key for White Rock play’s director Alex Browne

T

Arts Reporter

hey say half the battle in directing a play is making sure you cast it well. If that’s the case, Susanne de Pencier, director of the current White Rock Players Club production, Drinking Alone (Coast Capital Playhouse, 1532 Johnston Rd., until Feb. 25) has a distinct advantage. The White Rock resident recently retired after a 25-year career as a casting director for the B.C. film and television industry, including credits for MacGyver and The Commish, feature films, movies of the week and many commercials. She says she was pleasantly surprised at the calibre of actors who auditioned for the play, and pleased that Drinking Alone – which chronicles the chaotic reunion of two adult children with their long-estranged father – has turned out to be a vehicle for some of the Players Club’s betterknown actors (Roger Currie, Sheila Keating, Vanessa Klein), plus a couple of new faces (Sarah Green and Terry Thomas, seen previously in WRPC’s 20th Century). In the show, Ivan (Currie) returns to town after 15 years with a new wife, Phyllis (Keating) in tow, triggering crises for both daughter Carrie (Green), a successful television news personality who’s on the brink of alcoholism, and son Joe (Thomas), lonely manager of a moribund drycleaning business, who tries to impress his father by hiring a professional escort (Klein) to pose as his fiance. De Pencier said that although she was originally invited to direct this

marshmallow. When her dad shows up, this tough cookie turns into Jello. There’s one scene, when she confronts her father, that’s very touching. “Sarah is a gem. I hope her husband and two young sons allow her to do more theatre – she’s a real asset.” Part of the challenge of the role of Renee is that’s she’s an escort – not a hooker – de Pencier said. “She is the girl who’s hired to accompany someone to an event. When Joe wants her to pretend to be his fiance, she starts out thinking she won’t be able to do it – and then she falls very easily into the whole fantasy world of being his fiance. She starts to think it’s real. “Vanessa’s energy is amazing. I wish she had a real chance to sing in this show – she has a gorgeous voice. But I can’t imagine anyone else doing the role this justice.” De Pencier said she also appreciates Keating’s experience and subtlety as Phyllis. “She’s probably the only sane one – the only normal character in the play. She’s the voice of reason, the person that becomes the arbitrator. She’s got some subtle funny stuff, but she’s the straight person in the show. And what a prize it is to find an older woman who is so capable. “Of all the shows I’ve done, this is the most exceptional cast I’ve dealt with,” de Pencier added. Drinking Alone is presented with a warning of some coarse language. Performances are 8 p.m., Wednesday to Saturday, with a 2:30 p.m. matinee, Sunday, Feb. 19.

Brian Tate leads his City Soul Choir in a song.

Hospice Society marks 30th year

Treat Your Sweetheart this Valentine’s

Choir to spark celebration Alex Browne Arts Reporter

It’s a 30th anniversary event with a joyous musical flair. White Rock South Surrey Hospice Society will celebrate its 30th year of serving the community with a concert by Vancouver’s City Soul Choir, 7:30 p.m., Feb. 18 at White Rock Baptist Church, 1657 140 St. Founded in 2010, the choir, directed by award-winning composer Brian Tate, is a community group that draws on many

multicultural styles and traditions for a lively, wide-ranging repertoire. Often numbering as many as 90 members, the choir has won praise for its blend of gospel, world music, soul, pop and spirituals. “I’m super excited about this,” said former White Rock Mayor Catherine Ferguson, the society’s new executive director. “I haven’t yet had a chance to hear the choir, so this is going to be a real first for me,” she said. see page 35

Networking night planned for artists Calling all musicians, singers, songwriters, poets and artists – Five Corners rendezvous Coffee With Attitude (Laura’s Coffee Corner) at 15202 Pacific Avenue is offering an invitation for an evening of entertainment networking, Thursday, Feb. 16 from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. Proprietor Laura Cornale said participants are welcome to bring business cards and instruments. “It should be a fun evening – and a jam should break out,” Cornale added. For more information, call 604-538-6600.

Peninsula debut from page 33 “What’s really great is that Brian is going to lead the choir and also perform as part of Tri-Vo, a versatile a cappella vocal trio. “I’m thrilled – this is going to be a really cultural experience that is going to attract a lot of people. And those people are not only supporting hospice, they’re also helping us celebrate the anniversary.” The concert is close to her heart, she said, not only as a long-time supporter of hospice concept, but also as a former professional singer herself. Ferguson noted that City Soul, which usually does two performances a year in the Vancouver area, is

making its Peninsula debut. “One of our volunteers, Bill Ruppel was a part of the choir coming here – he’s a member of the choir, he brought it to our attention and helped us make the idea come to life.” This is the second big concert sponsored by hospice, which brought the Universal Gospel Choir to the Peninsula last May, but Ferguson said its too early to tell whether this will become a new tradition. “We’ll have to see,” she said. “It’s certainly a very positive way to start the new year.

…on the Semiahmoo Peninsula

Men’s rugby team opens season with win

‘Don’t forget about us,’ says Bayside coach Nick Greenizan Sports Reporter

Ball battle

Tracy Holmes photo

Peace Arch Rangers’ Mitch Mahjen (left) fights for position against a Surrey United Predators’ player during a U13 boys Cup soccer game Saturday at Hillcrest Park. The teams were tied 1-1 after regulation time, but the Rangers won on penalty kicks, scoring on four of five attempts.

After losing a relegation game last fall – thus bouncing them from this spring’s premier men’s rugby league – members of the Bayside Sharks didn’t let the disappointment linger. Sure, they were upset, said head coach Pat Kearney, but it wasn’t something they were going to dwell on. “I don’t think we’re really thinking about it anymore,” he said. “It’s too bad, but now we’re (in Division 1), and we’re excited to get back out on the field. We’d like to go out there and win another trophy for the club – even if it’s not the premiership trophy.” The Sharks’ top squad – for years a fixture on the CDI Premier Rugby League schedule – was eliminated from the circuit after a 20-11 win-and-you’re-in game against Burnaby Lake in late November. Now, they’re competing in an independent first division league alongside five other sides – Richmond, Cowichan, Seattle, Vancouver Rowing Club and Velox (Victoria). The Sharks hosted Seattle in the season-opener last Saturday, winning a lopsided 87-0 affair. The Sharks’ seconddivision team edged their Emerald City foes 95-17. Though they’re playing in a lower division, Kearney said the majority of the team is still in place, minus a player here or there. “We’re going a bit younger, but the core group is still intact,” he said, adding that

veteran Jason Blaak has returned to the fold after some time away, and is serving as the team captain. A few others have taken the season off, including Brodie Henderson, who currently lives in Edmonton and had been flying in for premier games in the past. Kearney said a number of premier teams also inquired about borrowing Bayside’s top players for the spring – “Pete Clifford was a hot commodity, being the leading scorer in the fall league,” Kearney said – but all, he said, declined and instead chose to stick with the Sharks for the first-division season. That allegiance paid off in a big way Saturday, as the Sharks’ cruised past their Seattle visitors with ease. “Tons of guys scored, it was a good Saturday,” Kearney said, adding that Seattle was likely not fielding its top squad, as some players stayed behind due to passport or other issues. “I think when we go down there to play, it’ll be a different game.” And though Kearney doesn’t expect the rest of the season to feature blowout victories – “I don’t imagine we’ll roll through all our games like this,” he said – he said his players are motivated, and looking to catch the attention of teams not just in their first-division league, but the current premier circuit, as well. “We’re out here now to send a message – don’t forget about us. We’ll be back in the premier league before you know it,” he said.

Zig Zag Micheal Kors

If there’s one thing stylish women on the Peninsula love, it’s being able to find the hottest fashions and accessories right in their own backyard. At Zig Zag Fashion Boutique in Peninsula Village, you’ll find the most diverse selection of trendy clothes, footwear and accessories, without having to leave White Rock/South Surrey. Kerry The appeal of Zig Zag – a favourite among shoppers on the Peninsula for 16 years – extends beyond the great selection of highly sought-after brands and hard-to-find fashions. The knowledgeable and friendly staff love nothing more than helping customers find the look that suits them perfectly, and will go out of their way to make sure you’re looking better than ever in your new purchase. The store’s wide scope of brand name merchandise makes it one of the best places to shop in town, especially with clothing brands including Not Your Daughter’s Jeans, Esprit, Tribal, Chalet, Niki Biki, Kenneth Cole and Michael Kors. The store is also the exclusive dealer of Fly London, which helps make up their wide selection of shoe brands including Michael Kors, DKNY, Bussola, Rieker, Kenneth Cole, Naots, Fit Flops and Blundstones for men and women. With so many brands to choose from, it’s no surprise residents are ditching plans to cross the border or head downtown and instead are staying home to satisfy their fashion needs. And the loyalty between Zig Zag staff and customers goes both ways. The store offers a unique discount program that rewards customers with points on every purchase of regular-priced merchandise. When a customer reaches 500 points, they receive a $50 gift card to spend in the store. If it’s your birthday, make sure you take time to visit Zig Zag, as the store offers a 25 per cent discount to help you celebrate your big day.

Bringing Vision to

Spectrum Optometry

Life

Eye Care You Can See

When it comes to taking care of your health and that of your family, having experienced, knowledgeable and caring health practitioners is of the utmost importance. Dr. Stephanie Gautier The health of your eyes is no exception – which is Dr. Michelle Elliott why SPECTRUM Optometry strives to provide great patient care on a full range of services to ensure optimum eye health for your whole family. “Providing patients with the highest quality care, service and products to enhance your unique lifestyle” is the mission statement at SPECTRUM Optometry. Whether it’s a full eye health examination – including testing for standard ocular diseases like glaucoma, cataracts and diabetes – to contact lens fitting and eyeglass dispensing, the professional and knowledgeable team at SPECTRUM Optometry can take care of it all. Patients can rest assured when visiting SPECTRUM Optometry that they’re in good hands. Dr. Michelle Elliott is a published researcher and University of Waterloo graduate with a Bachelor of Science degree in Biochemistry, as well as a Doctor of Optometry degree. Dr. Stephanie Gautier – who joined the Spectrum team in 2009 – obtained her Bachelor of Science in Microbiology and Immunology at the University of British Columbia, and her Doctor of Optometry at the University of Waterloo, and, like Dr. Elliott, has earned numerous awards for her work and studies. Both doctors believe strongly in giving back and regularly take part in eye care missions to help improve the eye health of those less fortunate. Another thing the doctors both agree on is the importance of regular eye examinations in order to maintain not only your eye heath, but overall health as well. Sun protection is important to consider all year long. Whether on vacation, sitting enjoying the back yard or walking the dog; sunglasses improve your vision and protect your long term health of your eyes. Call SPECTRUM Optometry at 604-536-2050 or visit www. spectrumoptometry.com to find out more – new patients are always welcome.

Eye care is more than a pair of lenses. Eye care is about understanding and delivering solutions to enhance your vision. Eye care is about doctors being knowledgeable to consult, diagnose, and treat eye related issues. Eye care is about being available when you need emergency care. Eye care is about more one on one time with your doctor. Let us show you, "we care about your eye care".

THE WHITE ROCK PLAYERS’ CLUB

White Rock Players Club

presents

Drinking Alone - by Norm Foster Directed by Susanne dePencier

With more than 67 years under their belt – including 51 years at their current Johnston Road location – the White Rock Players Club knows a thing or two about putting on a show. The non-profit, volunteer-run theatre group has always strived to provide top-notch entertainment for its community at the Coast Capital Playhouse Dave Baron located at 1532 Johnston Rd., and this year is no different. After their popular Christmas pantomime Mother Goose, the Club is jumping in to their next project, Drinking Alone by Norm Foster, about a comically dysfunctional family reunion. The Feb. 8-25 comedy will be directed by noted local director, Susanne de Pencier. When spring rolls around, the Club will take a slightly more serious turn with the classic drama The Lion in Winter, by James Goldman. Telling the story of the King of England trying to decide which of his three sons will inherit the kingdom, this play is set to run April 11-28, and will have award-winning director Dale Kelly at the helm. Rounding out the season will be one of Ken Ludwig’s popular farces, Lend Me a Tenor (June 13-30) following backstage chaos at an opera company in the 1930s, directed by Ryan Mooney. The Players Club produces five shows per year, offering audiences highcalibre theatre, in a convenient local venue, with free parking and affordable ticket prices. The Coast Capital Playhouse will also be hosting the Fraser Valley Gilbert & Sullivan Society’s production of The Mikado in May, Peninsula Production’s The Mousetrap in July, and Fighting Chance Production’s Little Shop of Horrors in August, as well as a variety of concerts. Check our website for details and tickets. There’s something for everyone at the Coast Capital Playhouse! And for those who may find the uptown streetscape a little dull, the White Rock Players Club is planning to do something about that, give the club a call or send an email asking how you can help decorate the south wall of the Playhouse with a beautiful mural by famous local artist Elizabeth Hollick! For more information about the season, or to reserve tickets for the shows, visit www.whiterockplayers.ca or call 604-536-7535.

Sight Testing

Debbie Mozelle Designer Optical

FREE SALE 50-100 %

For ages over nineteen and under sixty-five.

Ask about Digital Progressives with no peripheral distortion!

Debbie Mozelle Designer Optical is family owned and operated and has been in business for more than 21 years. With locations in both White Rock and Langley they are able to offer a wide array of quality products at very reasonable prices. In addition, they also proudly provide free sight testing. With so many different styles available, the experienced staff is able to match the right frame for your face shape for the perfect look. And for those Debbie Mozelle who think shopping online can save money, owner Debbie Mozelle says their prices for eyewear and contact lenses are about the same as what you find on the Internet, but the big difference is you can see what you’re buying before you pay, and the staff adds a personal touch by adjusting the frame to fit exactly how you like it. “We can adjust the nose pads and make changes to the angle that the frame fits with our special optical instrument before any important measurements are taken,” she said. “Some people have one ear higher than the other one, or one ear further forward than the other. “We can make any changes that may be required to the frame fit.” Debbie says she loves it when someone buys a frame online and actually brings it into the shop to have the lenses put in. In the fast-paced Internet age, the company has found ways to adapt and stay modern in their business. But regardless of the changes in business practices, one thing that won’t change is the human interaction and personal touch provided by the experienced staff at Debbie Mozelle Designer Optical. “We have one local hairdresser who comes in once every two or three months to take advantage of our free sight testing and upgrade her lenses,” Debbie said. “She loves the designer frame prices that she can find online, but likes our follow up service. Sure, you can find lower prices on the Internet but at the end of the day it costs the same and it is nice to be served by a licensed optician, as they are so knowledgeable, friendly and easy to talk to.” Providing excellent service is key to Debbie Mozelle Designer Optical’s success. Whether you lose a screw, or someone has sat on your glasses, the team is more than happy to help. The shop has an eyeglass surfacing lab on premises and can also fit contact lenses. “It is great that we have all these shopping choices and this gives more value to the customer,” Debbie said. “You are welcome to visit our store and we look forward to seeing you soon. At Debbie Mozelle Designer Optical the customer is king!”

Hillcrest Bakery & Deli Since 1972, Hillcrest Bakery and Deli has been offering up delicious, made-from-scratch food to the people in the community. Walk in on any given day and you will be greeted by the friendly, knowledgeable staff and the irresistible smell of homemade goods. With an unbeatable selection of bread, pastry, meat and other scrumptious treats, it’s no wonder the community staple has been David & Sheana Moyer around for four decades. And with new owners David and Sheana Moyer at the reins, there is no doubt it will be around for years to come. After taking over last spring, the couple have successfully continued the tradition of making fresh, delicious food. Whether it’s the light and Áuffy cinnamon bread (which David says makes a great French toast) or the chicken wings made by Raj, the deli lead, there is no end to what the team at Hillcrest can whip up. With a wide selection of tasty treats such as their sausage rolls, pies, quiches, pizza, soups and more than 60 different varieties of bread, there is a little something for everyone. Even the four-legged friend in your life can indulge in a treat from the bakery with their homemade doggy biscuits packaged up and ready to go. But it’s not all about the food. The Moyers have also maintained the impeccable customer service that Hillcrest Bakery and Deli is known for. David, who has been baking at Hillcrest for 24 years, credits his wife Sheana’s ability to make people feel welcome and at home which is why there is such a strong relationship between staff and customers. Sheana constantly reaches out to her customers to Ànd out what they want to see when they come in. “It’s important, with any business, to listen to your customers, build relationships and listen to their feedback,” Sheana said. Balancing the new with the old is essential to the Moyers, who know many of the customers coming in for a hearty bowl of homemade soup and a sandwich have been regulars for decades and love the familiarity of the bakery. While they promise to keep most of the customer favourites, they are excited to add some new creations, especially with the 40th anniversary of the bakery and deli coming up. “We’re open to new ideas,” Sheana said. “We want to move with the times.” Visit Hillcrest Bakery and Deli and the friendly staff will be happy to help you Ànd what you’re looking for, whether it’s an old favourite or a new addition, there is no going wrong with fresh, handmade goods.

Chocolaterie Bernard Callebaut For close to 20 years, Chocolaterie Bernard Callebaut has been tantalizing the tastebuds of chocolate lovers on the Peninsula with their delicious chocolate treats. Made with only the finest ingredients, these awardwinning chocolates are world-famous, and after just one taste, it’s easy to see why. Now, there is another reason to indulge in the decadence of chocolate. Customers will find that many of the prices have been lowered, but not at the expense of quality or customer service. Chocolaterie Bernard Callebaut is dedicated to Jackie Pearson sourcing the finest quality ingredients for their chocolate and chocolate products. They also aim to provide their customers with a memorable, positive, chocolate shopping experience. Owner Jackie Pearson took over the business after her father, Malcolm, passed away in 2006 and is proud to be carrying on his tradition of fine chocolate as well as community involvement. The chocolaterie has sponsored Vintage Affair since its inception – a wine tasting gala that raises money for the White Rock South Surrey Community Foundation. “It’s not just having the access to such delicious chocolate, but being able to share it with others,” says Jackie, who can be found rolling truffles and handing them out at Vintage Affair, A Taste of the Peninsula, the WRSS Chamber of Commerce mixer at Semiahmoo House and Taste of Ocean Park community fundraiser. “I always love to watch people’s faces when I give out samples at community events. You can see by their expressions that they’re experiencing absolute bliss!” Jackie also raffles huge chocolate Santa’s and Easter Bunnies from Chocolaterie Bernard Callebaut, with all proceeds going to the Food Bank operated by Sources Community Resource Centres. Stepping inside the chocolate shop, one’s senses are taken to great heights. The decadent smell of rich, creamy chocolate wafts out of the store, tempting chocolate lovers with its delicate molds, decadent bars, seasonal items and much, much more, all of which comes elegantly wrapped. One can even find the best baking supplies around – your home-baked goodies will be more popular than ever when they’re prepared with their baking bars, chocolate drops, shavings and cocoa power, all made with ingredients of the highest quality, with low sugar and high cocoa content. If you haven’t been to this delectable South Surrey shop lately, you’ll want to drop in and check out their new line-up before Valentine’s Day, which includes a set of Twelve Chocolates, beautifully packaged for the season. The Twelve contains unique pairings that are new to the Chocolaterie Bernard Callebaut line-up, using ingredients such as Earl Grey tea or mango and pink peppercorn to further enhance the decadence of their chocolate. Exciting and new, something you won’t want to miss and at a price of only $17. And for your littlest Valentine you might like to take home “Huggy Bear.” This white chocolate polar bear is specially wrapped for Valentines and sure to put a sweet smile on the face of a loved one. With such a selection, like the delicious new dark chocolate heart with a passion fruit centre, it’s no wonder Chocolaterie Bernard Callebaut has been nominated for South Surrey/White Rock’s Chamber of Commerce’s award for Business of The Year. Visit Chocolaterie Bernard Callebaut at Peninsula Village Shopping Centre, and the friendly, knowledgeable staff will be happy to help you find what you’re looking for – whether it’s a gift for your sweetheart or a special someone you want to thank, – the mouth-watering chocolates you will find are a dream come true.

Check Point Plumbing With a commitment to customer satisfaction and nearly 100 years of combined industry experience, Check Point Plumbing is proud to offer top-notch, knowledgeable service you can count on. Beth, Dave, Rich & Kent Whether it’s a clogged sink, a leaky hot water tank or a gas fireplace on the fritz, the team at Check Point Plumbing will get the job done quickly and accurately, according to coowner Beth Henderson. “We do the job right the first time and ensure that the customer is satisfied,” Henderson said. “We’re very proud of the work we do.” With winter upon us, it’s the time of year many homeowners think about replacing their old, inefficient furnace with a newer and more efficient model. In some respects, today’s high-efficiency furnaces, which generally start around $4,000, are better engineered than the $30,000 car you drive off the lot. With up to 95 per cent efficiency, more heat goes into your home than up the chimney with older models. Redesigned heat exchangers – complete with recovery coils – better insulation with state-of-the-art controls and energy-efficient blower motors, some with four speeds and quiet as a whisper, all provide long-lasting comfort. High and low-fire gas valves combined with variable speed blowers provide the perfect amount of heat required – for warmer days, the gas valve fires on low mode and the blower cuts in on low speed; for cold days, both the gas valve and the blower operate on high to bring your home up to a set temperature, where it will stay comfortably. Also important is a good digital thermostat to replace the old mechanical style you may still have. The friendly folks at Check Point Plumbing would be more than happy to visit your home to check out your existing unit and make some recommendations. With an emphasis on providing great customer service and competitive pricing, Check Point Plumbing is your best choice for all your plumbing, heating and gas fitting needs.

Poultry in Motion For more than 20 years, Holly Valentine, owner of Poultry and Motion on Marine Drive, has been the go-towoman for all things breakfast. But as hard as it is to believe, the delicious eggs and bacon she now serves up would never have existed if it had not been for customer suggestions. Before she was serving up Mishady omelettes (fluffy eggs stuffed with delicious veggies and topped with silky Holly Valentine avocados and tangy feta cheese) Poultry in Motion was a deli with glistening rotisserie chickens turning in the window (which was actually Holly’s inspiration for the name). After a suggestion to cook up the bacon she would slice and sell, she scrambled some eggs on top of her cappucino machine (a unique and successful method) - and made her breakfast staple. “I built my restaurant on eggs and bacon,” she said. After receiving an overwhelming positive response, she got rid of the deli case and focused on breakfasts. Now people come from all over to sample the fresh, local ingredients Holly combines to make her hearty, breakfast creations, whether it’s the omelettes,waffles, homemade bread or her eggs benedict with ham – which will be on special for $7.99 for the month of February as a special treat to customers. “My last name is Valentine, so I had to do something good for Valentine’s Day,” she said. And it would be impossible to talk about Holly without mentioning her “best in the world” raspberry muffins, containing a top-secret ingredient that she vows never to reveal. Holly is so serious about the ingredient, she has her staff sign a non-disclosure statement. “People always ask me how to make it at home, but I’ll never tell,” she said, laughing. As for the future, Poultry in Motion will be turning 22 in March and will be coming full circle as Holly works to bring back the deli that started it all. “I’m really excited to be incorporating the deli back into Poultry in Motion, I think people will love it,” Valentine said. But that’s not all. The store will also have more homemade breads, soups made from scratch to take home and even rotisserie chicken. So make sure to stop by Poultry in Motion, whether it’s the lure of a delicious breakfast, the outstanding view or the world’s best raspberry muffin, one thing is for sure, you won’t leave hungry.

Developer presents rehab centre with cheque from collected fines

Morningstar proud of its safety record When those who work on a construction site do not comply with the regulations imposed by WorkSafe BC, they are given a fine. Morningstar Homes decided that the funds should go to a good cause, and donated the $14,660 they collected last year to the GF Strong Rehabilitation Centre in Vancouver. “Safety is not something we take lightly at Morningstar, and (we) have incorporated policies and procedures into our daily practices to make the workplace a safe environment for all,” says Morningstar President Robert Morse. “We seek to ensure the safest workplace possible and do everything within our power to educate and facilitate safe working practices.” GF Strong is B.C.’s largest and most specialized centre for rehab. It serves people

with work-related injuries as well as those stemming from sports, an accident, a stroke or a degenerative condition such as ALS or Parkinson’s Disease. “We are happy to report that we have never incurred a serious work-related accident in the history of Morningstar,” says VicePresident of Sales and Marketing Deborah Calahan. “It is our hope that through our diligence and commitment to a safe working environment that these infractions will continue to diminish ... we lead by example and hope this will encourage others to commit to the same high standard.” Examples of fined offences include not wearing a hard hat or proper safety gear. “We are proud of our record and we intend to keep it that way,” Calahan says.

‘Stylish single-level living’

Living the creekside life at Headwaters by Kerry Vital

Situated beside creeks and sheltering trees, Headwaters in the Morgan Creek area of Surrey is a private, secluded enclave that almost reaches out and hugs you. With the creek on two sides, nature has done a superb job of creating a earthly paradise. “Nature does the job better than I ever could,” says Treegroup VicePresident of Sales and Marketing Rod Sopko. With Treegroup’s 20 years of experience building homes, South Surrey showed them it had a lot of potential to be an amazing place to live. With 13 different floorplans available, buyers at Headwaters won’t have any trouble finding the perfect condominium home to suit their needs. “There is something there for everybody,” Sopko says. The homes range from 651 to 1,279 square feet, in a variety of one-, two- and threebedroom plans. Inside, the kitchens and bathrooms are spectacular. With recessed pot lighting and beautiful shaker-style cabinetry in your choice of Rich Expresso Stain or Fresh Antique White, both the kitchen and master bathroom are calm and soothing. The kitchen backsplash is chic and modern, in either Cool Grey or Cloud White. Complemented by the white-speckled Brazilian granite countertops and island in your gourmet kitchen, dark laminate wood flooring is a true focal point throughout the main living areas.

There is something here for everybody,” says Treegroup Vice-President of Sales and Marketing Rod Sopko.

big feature at Headwaters, the on-site business centre is a selling point as well. With an Internet lounge, private offices available for meetings, a screening room and a conference room, your every business need will be taken care of. There is also a concierge available. There is also a lifestyle centre that features a fireside lounge, gourmet kitchen, screening room and a flexible lounge space. The third jewel in the Headwaters amenities crown is the fitness centre, which includes a fully equipped gym and the use of a personal trainer. If your New Years resolution to

lose those last 10 pounds is falling by the wayside, you will no longer have any excuse at Headwaters. If you feel like venturing off the property for a bit of recreation, there are several golf courses and athletic parks in the area. Shopping, restaurants and several schools are also just a short walk or drive away. Located on-site at 15428 31st Avenue, the show suite and sales centre is open daily from 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. Homes start at $256,500. For more information, visit headwatersclub.ca or call 604-535-1451.

Each home includes a workspace area that Treegroup calls a Personal Hub. This space, with a built-in desk complemented by frosted glass accent windows and recessed lighting, can be used for anything you want, from a home office to a leisure nook perfect for curling up on a rainy day. Buyers are already pleased with their purchase. “The homes at Headwaters offer stylish single-level living as well as amazing on-site amenities that allow easy work-from-home flexibility and a host of leisure opportunities,” says Craig Harrold, who was so impressed that he e-mailed 25 of his friends to tell them about it, Sopko says. While the location is definitely a

HOLTBY, Arthur Wilbur (Bill) June 4, 1918 February 3, 2012 Bill passed away peacefully at Morgan Place, Surrey, BC, with his 2 daughters by his side. Bill will be greatly missed by his loving family: his daughters Carole and her husband Ken of Priddis, AB and Georgia, of Surrey, BC., his devoted grandchildren and their families, Kerry and Andrea (Jessica, Owen, and Drew), Brett and Kara (Tyler and Ella), Jim and Jody (Madison, Miller and a baby girl to arrive later this month), Lorrenne and Jody (Zia, Annise, Mabel and Abner), his two sisters, Kay and Jean and his sister-in-law, Ruth. In 1999, Bill was predeceased by his wife, Lorraine, the love of his life. Bill was so very proud of all of his grandchildren and greatly delighted in his 11 great grandchildren. The associations through his years of working in the hospital in Melfort and Moose Jaw, SK, and his friendships made in the Rotary Club brought much fulfillment to his life. The family would like to thank all his friends for their love and concern during his illness. We would also like to send a special thank you to all the staff on the Cobden Unit at Morgan Place for their loving and compassionate care. A Celebration of Bill’s Life will be held at Victory Memorial Park Funeral Centre, 14831 - 28th Avenue, South Surrey, on Sunday, February 12, 2012 at 2:00 pm. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Bill’s memory to Prostate Cancer, at VGH and UBC Hospital Foundation, 855 West 12th Avenue, Vancouver, BC, V5Z 1M9, or a charity of your choice.

RUDOSKY, ALVINA (WINNIE) ELIZABETH NOV. 15, 1924 - FEB. 5, 2012 It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our mother Winnie after a courageous fight with Alzheimer disease. Predeceased by her husband Henry (Hank) and daughter Wendy, she is survived by her son Ross, daughter-in-law Rosa, grandchildren Zsolt andbcclassified.com Rita, great grandchildren Adam and Daniel. Winnie was born in Grayson, Saskatchewan and moved to Vancouver with the family, when she was a child. Winnie married Hank on Dec.1, 1950 and moved onto a homestead at Forest Grove, B.C. There they ranched, logged and lived a “pioneer� life until 1964, when electricity was finally brought to the homestead. After Hank passed away in 1990, Winnie moved back to Vancouver, to be with family and later to Caroline (Alberta) to be with her daughter Wendy. After the sudden passing of Wendy, her memory loss increased and she moved to White Rock to be with her family. Special thanks are given to the staff at Weatherby Pavilion in White Rock, Peace Arch Hospital for their care, attention and generosity. Thanks to Grace, her companion, who filled in when the family could not be there. We are eternally grateful. At Winnie’s request there will be no funeral. In lieu of flowers please make a donation to the Alzheimer Society of B.C.

You will be assigned some new responsibilities at work that might entail dealing with clients. You will have a lot of success, and people will want to do business with you more often.

SAGITTARIUS

At work you hear about a promotion for which you are the best candidate. You have every right to negotiate for conditions that will keep your life stress-free.

The energy of the full moon makes you daydream about travelling. If you are inspired to leave on an adventure, just make sure you don’t forget important papers on your desk.

CANCER

CAPRICORN

Friends will try to persuade you to sign up for a new, regular activity. If you agree, it will improve your social life.

You might be a little bit on edge right now, especially if you are in a difficult financial situation. Keep up your morale: the solutions to your problems are coming soon.

LEO

AQUARIUS

Action and energy levels are high this week, especially if you have young children at home. Don’t be surprised if a family member goes to live abroad for a period of time.

It feels like the most difficult negotiations are always with family members. When you let your emotions get involved, it’s harder to make a decision. Try to stand back and see your reaction.

VIRGO

PISCES

The full moon may drain your energy. This is nevertheless a perfect time to get creative and undertake a work of art that expresses your emotions.

You will be successful at work this week. You will gather a group of people together to enjoy some discounts.

Are you still searching for a soul mate to spend the rest of your life with? Don’t worry; good fortune will come your way eventually. In the meantime, there’s nothing to stop you from enjoying Valentine’s Day in the company of friends, co-workers, parents, or even your children. Make a date with some of your single friends for an evening out at a restaurant or a bar. You can celebrate the many advantages of friendship, a less intense feeling than love but just as essential to the good life. The camaraderie of co-workers is also worth celebrating with a simple Valentine’s “happy hour.” A small chocolate heart left on every desk is another gesture sure to be appreciated.

Don’t forget to give them a kiss and a hug as well! If you’re not very good at that sort of thing, why not write a few heartfelt words in a specially chosen card. They’re sure to keep it close to hand, treasuring your kind thoughts for them every time they open it. Don’t forget your children on Valentine’s Day. Showing your love is sure to touch them deeply no matter how old they are and no matter how many times you’ve already said those three little words.

Canine conundrum for city as it assesses public pet policy

No support for dogs on the promenade Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

A suggestion to allow dogs on White Rock’s promenade west of the pier from Sept. 15 to May 15 didn’t make it past the gate at Monday’s council meeting. The motion by Coun. Helen Fathers – posed following a delegation asking council to make the city, and particularly the promenade, more dog-friendly – received no support from other members of council, preventing the suggestion from even being discussed.

“No seconder – the motion’s lost,” Mayor Wayne Baldwin proclaimed. Disappointment with the result was audible from the approximately two dozen residents who turned out to the meeting hoping council would see fit to relax its dog rules on the waterfront. But it hasn’t lessened the resolve of those determined to improve access for owners. “Not giving up, not at all,” Mike Armstrong told Peace Arch News Wednesday. Armstrong, representing DOG White

Rock, presented to council the case for access. He told the politicians the issue was “not a yes or no question,” but about accommodating the estimated 40 per cent of White Rock residents who have dogs, as well as those who visit the city with their fourlegged friends. Citing statistics from cities that have added off-leash parks and other amenities for dog owners, Armstrong said benefits of such a move for White Rock would include improved tourism, increased revenue, less

poop and reduced crime. Armstrong noted the city’s existing bylaw – which director of planning and development services Paul Stanton described as “ambiguous and poorly written” – allows dogs on the grassy area east of the pier, to Cypress Street. Armstrong proposed that council move the allowable area – which Baldwin quipped was only legally accessible to dogs if they were brought in by boat or plane – to a less-populated stretch of waterfront west of the pier. see page 4

Population booms

Growth spurt for Surrey Jeff Nagel Black Press

Surrey and Port Moody were the fastest growing cities in Metro Vancouver in the 2011 Census, spurring the region’s population to grow rapidly. Double-digit growth was also recorded in Burnaby, Langley Township, New Westminster, Coquitlam, Pitt Meadows and Maple Ridge, according to data released Wednesday. Surrey’s population grew 18.6 per cent to 468,251, an increase of more than 73,000 since the previous count in 2006. Only Port Moody’s rate of growth was faster, climbing 19.9 per cent to 32,975 – this despite Port Moody city council’s decision a few years ago to restrict further development until the Evergreen Line SkyTrain extension is built. The City of Vancouver gained about 25,000 residents, or 4.4 per cent over the five-year period, to 603,502. Burnaby added 10.1 per cent to reach a population of 223,218 and is the Lower Mainland’s third-largest city after Vancouver and Surrey. see page 4

Keeping the faiths together for peace Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

An effort to promote love through sharing the beauties of different religions drew more than 200 people to Star of the Sea Community Centre Monday. “This was to create understanding of different religions,” Mohammad Aslam Shad, regional president of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community (AMC), said of the World Religions Conference. “There are more commonalities than there are differences.” Featuring a panel of religious scholars

representing five faiths – Buddhism (Myoshin Kate McCandless), Christianity (Father Edwin Kulling), Hindu (Suman Sharma), Islamic (Mohammad Afzal Mirza) and Sikhism (Sukvinder Kaur Vinning) – the conference was themed “Reconciling Existence of God and Human Suffering.” The event’s roots date back 116 years to when the first forum was organized by AMC. Today in B.C., about two dozen are held each year. Following a chance for each panelist to give their perspective on the theme, questions from the audience ranged from whether

suffering is simply a part of the evolutionary process, to “Is it possible for a murderer to get into heaven in your religion?” To the latter, Sharma said the cause must be considered first; Mirza said it depends whether the subject can be reformed. In Christianity, “there is no unforgiven sin,” Kulling said. “But… the person has to repent.” Shad said the exercise was a healthy one. “There can be no peace among the nations without having peace among the religions and there can be no peace in the religions without having dialogue,” he said.

them in Surrey, but the supply of marijuana hasn’t noticeably diminished. Drug wars in places like Mexico have left thousands of people dead, and the fight over control of the trade in the Vancouver area seems to be once again reaching the crescendo that we saw in early 2009. All levels of government need to develop a co-ordinated approach to this issue, and all options need to be on the table. Should marijuana be regulated and sold in government outlets? When prohibition ended in the U.S. in 1933, it took mobsters out of the liquor business, but with their profits, they found many others to go into. The federal, provincial and local governments all have a role to play in this issue. Surrey may be somewhat safer due to the electrical inspections, but Surrey youth are still getting into gangs. Some of them are dying, while others are wounded in shootings like the one on Tuesday. Still others destroy the lives of many innocent people, including their own families. This is a comprehensive issue that needs full attention, and a willingness to look at innovative ideas. The electrical safety inspections were an innovative idea, and have been successful. Are there more such ideas on the horizon to help end the drug wars and perhaps save the lives of some young people? Frank Bucholtz writes Thursdays for the Peace Arch News. He is the editor of the Langley Times.

news April date cited for connections from White Rock through Grandview, Campbell Heights

24 Ave bus access to Langley en route Alex Browne Staff Reporter

Christine Allen wrote to the Peace Arch News asking that people caught in a ‘no bus zone’ in South Surrey be given a break by TransLink. She was stunned to learn – the same day her letter was published (Feb. 7) – that her issue is to be addressed with a new bus route that will begin connecting Grandview Heights and the Campbell Heights business park with both White Rock and Langley in late April. “I sent the letter to TransLink, and the City of Surrey and the mayor (Dianne Watts) and anyone else I could think of,” she said, adding the most she’d hoped for was raising awareness of a long-standing issue.

Allen – who wrote contrasting the $1.4 billion TransLink is projected to spend on the Evergreen Line in Coquitlam with a lack of bus service to the newly populous area south of Highway 10 and east of Highway 99 – said she wasn’t expecting the direct response she received from the City of Surrey. Transportation planner Don Buchanan emailed her back to say the city has been advocating with TransLink for new services for residents, and giving details of the new bus service, in the middle of the ‘no bus zone’ she referred to. According to Buchanan, the new route will run from central White Rock up 152 Street, then east on 24 Avenue to 192 Street, where it will travel north to 32 Avenue, then east to

200 Street and north to the Langley Centre exchange. TransLink representatives did not respond to requests for confirmation of the route by press time. Ironically Allen, a Peninsula resident since 1975, doesn’t live in the ‘no bus zone.’ “But I have friends in that area and it’s been frustrating,” she said. “When my kids were younger, I was driving them there all the time, and to get to Langley, where they have friends, would take close to two hours by bus with transfers. “It seems silly, when they’re getting the Evergreen Line in Coquitlam, you look at the transportation maps for down here and there are big black holes.”

She described the new route as “a good start,” but one that will not solve all transportation problems in the area. Service to 32 and 16 avenues is still limited, she said. “And there a lot of people living on 20 Avenue for whom it’ll be a hike up to 24 Avenue.” She said extensive service to 24 Avenue has been a long time coming. This is not the first time one of her letters has seemed to obtain speedy results, Allen noted with a chuckle. “I wrote a letter two years ago about the fact there were no buses to Grandview Centre, and, sure enough, two weeks later there was an announcement buses were coming there,” she said. “What else should I write about?”

Surrey fire chief credits Electrical Fire Safety Initiative with decrease

‘Significant reduction’ in Surrey grow-ops Kevin Diakiw Black Press

The number of pot grow-ops found in Surrey has dropped by 82 per cent in the last four years. Surrey fire Chief Len Garis has released his annual report on the Electrical Fire Safety Initiative (EFSI), which has been instrumental in shutting down marijuana grow operations in the city. The pilot program began in 2005 and started in earnest two years later, when 445 grow-ops were found. Since then, between 100 and 150 have been uncovered annually, with only 82 grow operations discovered last year. Garis realizes that doesn’t mean the problem has gone away. Instead, he says, criminals are adapting to the measures being undertaken to find them.

BC Hydro reports any home that has three times the average daily energy usage and the EFSI team kicks into gear, placing a 72-hour notice of inspection on the door of the prop-

erty. If a grow-op exists, people usually pick up their plants and leave. Garis now thinks some of the growers are remaining under the threshold to avoid

Signs of a marijuana grow operation: • Residents rarely appear to be home and attend the house for brief periods of time. The radio and televisions are left on. Mail delivery is left unchecked and junk mail piles up. • Visitors come and go at odd hours and may behave strangely. • Entry to the home is usually through the garage or a back entrance. • The exterior of the home is often untidy, with uncut grass, used soil and plastic pots. • Windows are boarded or covered and may have a layer of condensation. • Equipment such as large fans, lights and plastic plant containers are carried into the home. • Sounds of construction or electrical humming can be heard. Strange odours (a skunklike smell) emanate from the house. • Hydro metres are tampered with, and signs of digging are found near the hydro box. • The neighbourhood experiences localized surges or decreases in power. • The property has warning signs, such as “Beware of Dog” or “Guard Dog.” (www.surrey.ca)

detection by growing smaller crops and using more effective means of lighting. He couldn’t say for sure how many growops remain in Surrey, or how much the EFSI has reduced them, except to say anecdotally, he believes the reduction has been quite significant. Garis, the architect of the EFSI program, is working on other high-tech means to disrupt the indoor plantations. He is working with a company called Telops to develop spectral analysis that can spot byproducts specific to marijuana growops and methamphetamine labs. Until that time, Garis is viewing results from the latest report as a win for his teams and a boon for the community. “We’re not getting complaints from the public. We’re not seeing fires like we used to,” Garis said. “And that means a safer community as far as I’m concerned.”

Issue must be dealt with: Baldwin from page 1 While Fathers’ motion was not supported, Baldwin said the issue has “got to be dealt with in some fashion.” He asked for staff to look at and clarify the bylaw, and confirmed the topic of improved access for dogs could be part of a community forum regarding the waterfront that is planned for April. Armstrong said Wednesday he was surprised more definitive action was not supported, particularly since the majority of the current council indicated support for it pre-election. At a Nov. 2 all-candidates meeting, “they all put up their hands”

except Couns. Grant Meyer and Al Campbell, he said. “Some of them now are forgetting what they put their hands up to,” he said. “Call me naive, but I thought that at least they would throw some initial trial of something. But there was nothing. Nobody even wanted to suggest Helen (Fathers) modify it.” During question period, prior to Armstrong’s delegation, two residents raised the issue. Eva Hompoth – who has organized a dog walk from city hall (15322 Buena Vista Ave.) in support of the cause for noon Sunday – asked why there is no off-

leash park in the city. “That’s a good question,” Baldwin responded, noting the issue is identified in the city’s parks plan as “something that should be looked at.” Susan Potzold spoke against allowing dogs on the promenade, asking if the facility were to open to the pets, “would council allow me to ride my bike on the promenade?” Potzold said she is concerned that allowing dogs on the waterfront could lead to the same issue that arose for the Semiahmoo First Nation at Semiahmoo Park, where many dog owners neglected to clean up after their pets.

Surrey not expected to sustain rate from page 1 White Rock is up 3.1 per cent to 19,339. Surrey accounted for one-quarter of the provincial gain and 37 per cent of Metro Vancouver’s. Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts predicted her city is on track to pass Vancouver’s population in as little as 10 years. Although Surrey gained nearly 50,000 residents more than Vancouver, not everyone is convinced it will be B.C.’s biggest city any time soon. Urban Futures demographer Ryan Berlin said Surrey would pass Vancouver in about 15 years

if the pace of the last five continues. “But will development in 15 years in Surrey be of the same scale and nature as it is today?” Berlin asked. “Probably not. So it probably won’t be 15 years. I think we’re looking at a couple of decades before Surrey passes Vancouver.” The council policies of both cities is also a factor, he said, noting Surrey could opt to slow the pace of greenfield development and Vancouver might push harder to densify existing neighbourhoods, despite resident opposition. Berlin said the most interesting

population changes in the Lower Mainland were the strong gains posted by Squamish and Chilliwack. The two outlying cities are about a 40-minute drive away from Metro Vancouver and offer much lower land prices than Vancouver, he said. “I think that’s why they experienced pretty significant growth – above what we experienced provincially and here in the Lower Mainland,” he said. “Instead of raising your kids in an apartment in Vancouver, maybe you choose a two-bedroom house, yard, swing set, Mr. Turtle pool – that kind of thing.”

news Nearly 200 cancer-screening cases affected by mistake

Agency fumbled patient files patients were all properly evaluated and advised of findings by counsellors at the time they were assessed. “In some cases, the next step – sending a letter back to the referring physician and outlining our recommendation – that did not occur,” she said. As a result, the agency is following up to make sure the patients and their relatives are informed. The program has already reached 188 affected patients and it’s searching for the remaining four. All of their physicians have been contacted. Anyone who was assessed by the program at the three sites in the second half of 2010 and have not yet been contacted is asked to call 604-877-6000 local 2198. “The agency and the program are very concerned that this happened,” McGillivray said.

Black Press

The BC Cancer Agency has fired a staff member it says mishandled nearly 200 files and potentially delayed screening of people identified as genetically predisposed to cancer. The compromised cases involve 192 patients who used the Hereditary Cancer Program at cancer agency sites in Surrey, Abbotsford and Vancouver between August and December of 2010. The program provides counseling and referrals for genetic testing for patients whose family histories suggest they may be predisposed to develop cancer. Because of incomplete documentation of the files, referring physicians may not have been properly notified of any findings. Dr. Barb McGillivray, the program’s medical director, said

But she stressed the risk of harm to the patients is “minimal” because the Hereditary Cancer Program does not directly diagnose and treat patients. The service typically involves determining timelines for future screening or tests, and potential preventative measures. Genetic testing does not diagnose cancer but may indicated the presence of a mutation that is known to increase the patient’s likelihood of developing cancer. A spokesperson for the Provincial Health Services Authority said the matter is being taken “very seriously” and an investigation is underway. “BC Cancer Agency and PHSA apologize and sincerely regret any stress or anxiety this situation may have caused the clients and physicians involved,” the authority said in a statement.

editorial

Legal driving age could use boost he teenage boy who died in the head-on collision early Sunday in Maple Ridge was violating conditions of his driver’s learning permit. Dawson Spencer, 17, was driving a Dodge mini-van, with two male passengers, when it crossed the centre line and collided with a car carrying three young girls. One of them, 18-yearold Crystal Weaver – stepdaughter of City of White Rock employee Al Tulev – also died. Police said the van was weaving in and out of traffic prior to the crash. Police also said speed and inexperience were factors, and have not ruled out whether alcohol played a part. It’s not known if Spencer had permission to be driving the van. But regardless, he shouldn’t have even been driving after midnight, based on restrictions under ICBC’s graduated licensing program. Nor should he have had any passengers with him. Drivers with learners’ permits must be accompanied by a fully licensed driver over the age of 25, and can only drive between 5 a.m. and midnight. The female driver of the other vehicle in the crash was a novice, under ICBC regulations, and shouldn’t have had more than one passenger either. Of course, people aren’t supposed to drink and drive or speed, or talk on cell phones or text while driving. But they do, despite statistics that show why we shouldn’t. B.C. introduced the graduated licensing program for a reason, to reduce fatalities among young drivers. And it has worked. Since it was introduced in 1998, fatal crashes involving drivers 15 to 19 years old have fallen 65 per cent. But it doesn’t go far enough. Teens can’t vote or drink until they’re 19; a 16-year-old can’t even see an R-rated movie alone. Yet, they can drive dad’s car. Vehicle crashes are the leading cause of death among teenagers, and Lower Mainland roads are cluttered with roadside memorials. Speeding is often to blame, as is alcohol, inexperience, immaturity. Perhaps the legal age to drive in B.C. should be raised to at least 18, as it is in many other countries. In the African nation of Niger, it’s 23. It may not seem fair to penalize all young drivers because of poor decisions of a few, but bumping the legal driving age up a few years is an option worth exploring. The risk of giving teens a license drive is too great, the consequences too often, as we’ve just seen, tragic.

While I didn’t opt for top-of-the-line, I did chooses a stitch-free option and I am curious whether nearly all opt to pay for some sort of upgrade.

letters Peace Arch News

Measuring up the opposition Editor: It is often said that the vocal minority can appear to make a majority. In the case of smart metering, I believe that is exactly what has been happening. An extremely vocal minority has been very adamantly opposed to smart metering and has been making such a protest, people are assuming everyone is opposed. We live in a world filled with electronic signals. The very laptop I am writing this letter on is currently connected to the Internet via Wi-Fi. Practically everyone uses a cellphone at some point during the week. The amount of transmission time a smart meter is going to put out is trivial in comparison to the set of signals already out there. The reality of smart metering is that it will enable BC Hydro to more effectively allocate resources. By having a better understanding of usage patterns, the right amount of electricity can be fed to the grid when needed. Hydro doesn’t know minute by minute what your usage is, it knows that in the morning you used X kWh and so on. Smart metering will enable end users to have a meter in their home with an hour-by-hour – or even real-time – display of their consumption. That data is entirely optional to produce and only sent to your device, not to Hydro. Much like many of us have learned to drive smarter and save on gas with the “fuel economy” gauge in our cars. I just had my smart meter installed this past week and I look forward to being able to reduce my consumption by understanding just how much electricity my household produces. Smart metering is a controversial topic; indeed there is some legitimate concern. However, to claim that the vast majority of citizens are opposed to it based on a few letters to the editor is absurd. Andrew Wallwork, White Rock

gathered at our church to “roll ’em up” for the local South Surrey/ White Rock Food Bank, which is operated under the caring community services umbrella of Sources Community Resource Centre – www.sourcesbc.ca This ministry at Mount Olive Lutheran Church has been ongoing for about eight years and is an outreach to local people in need. We have found it can be easily facilitated by any community individuals or as a group. A jar is labelled “Coins From Heaven” – call it what you wish – and placed where individuals or the group can easily access it and as often as they gather, just watch what happens! Before those pennies, and all coins, are worth nothing at all, we’ve decided to get them out of the jars and bags in our dresser drawers and kitchen cupboards and into the hands of someone for whom they can be beneficial. We first began this program on the challenge seen in your newspaper from a church further down the road, the name and location of which is long forgotten, but likely the food-bank recipients haven’t forgotten the help they received from those dollars. We are blessed to be a blessing to others and to be in a position to share the wealth, even if it is only coins, as they sure add up. Our recent donation was $342.25 toward fresh produce and the like.

Editor: In Canada, as in the U.K., the military and entities like the RCMP are required to take an oath of fealty or allegiance to the Crown. This is to distinguish between the sovereign head of state, the Queen, and the political head of government, and is to keep them apart from political questions or potential abuse. “The Harper Government,” Conservative Party, wants to be represented whenever an MP or senator asks for a meeting with the RCMP, according to Sen. Colin Kenny in news reports. How is this not interference with the independence of the RCMP, violation of parliamentary privilege and the ability of members of Parliament to fulfil their responsibilities in Parliament – in short, a further instance of contempt of Parliament – and a violation of the principle of the rule of law? Members of the RCMP take an Oath of Allegiance to the Crown, not to the government of the day. Is not this “communications strategy” a direct violation of the Oath of Allegiance with its declaration of fealty to the Canadian monarch, H.M. Queen Elizabeth II? Brian Marlatt, White Rock

perspectives …on the Semiahmoo Peninsula

Ethan Burge is just a normal kid who happens to have dwarfism

A little person with big plans ahead Dan Ferguson

Notable little people

T

Staff Reporter

he day Ethan Burge reached 44 inches in height, the 10-year-old checked the mark on the wall of his Langley home, let out a whoop of joy and ran to inform his mother that he was now tall enough to go on the rides at Disneyland. That was when Wendy Burge learned her youngest son possessed an iPod app that displays the ride types, anticipated wait times and height requirements at the famous theme park. For Ethan, a little person who has dwarfism, overcoming the height limit was a big moment. In the four months since then, the freckle-faced Grade 5 student has been waging a relentless charm offensive to convince his family to visit Disneyland during their upcoming summer vacation. When his mother pointed out they were planning to visit relatives in Germany this year, Ethan smiled his warmest smile. “You know Germany is next to Paris,” he said. “And you know what’s in Paris.” He didn’t have to say Euro Disney. Ethan believes most obstacles can be overcome. Case in point: when spinal complications from his dwarfism required him to spend more than three years in a back brace, Ethan discovered that he could still use playground slides by lying flat on his back and using his momentum at the bottom to land on his feet. “It was tricky,” he says. The brace came off four years ago. These days, Ethan likes to demonstrate his recovery and make jaws drop by breaking out flashy dance moves that showcase his speed and balance. He demonstrates for a visitor by moving from a standing position to a handstand in one quick, smooth move. “I’m not a sports kid, I’m a dance kid,” he says.

The list of successful and notable little people is a long one which includes: Kenny Baker, who operated the R2-D2 “droid” in the Star Wars films; Tamara Detro, one of the performers who operated the E.T. alien in the Steven Spielberg film of the same name, Peter Dinklage, who portrays Tyrion Lannister in the Game of Thrones hit television series, Charla Baklayan Faddoul, a two-time competitor on the Amazing Race reality-TV show, Verne Troyer, who played Mini-Me in the Austin Powers movies, famous sex therapist Dr. Ruth Westheimer, former WWE cruiserweight champion “Hornswoggle” and Australian senator Dr. Alan Eggleston.

Ethan Burge sits with his mom, Wendy. The 10-year-old says he would like to be a filmmaker one day. His mother fondly describes him as a “Dennis-the-menace” type who has been known to break things like towel racks by using them as impromptu grab handles. One of Ethan’s favorite things is kicking back in a comfy chair and watching movies with dad Thomas on a big-screen television, with a soda in one hand and licorice in the other. He’s had to temporarily give up popcorn because he just got braces. When Ethan watches a movie, he is often interested in behindthe-scenes information, like the name of the director and other production details. “I just want to see how everything is made,” he says.

One day, he thinks he’d like to work in the industry, making the kinds of films he likes to watch. Dwarfism, as defined by the Mayo Clinic, refers to people who reach an adult height of 58 inches or less (147 centimeters). The average adult height of people with dwarfism is 48 inches (122 cm). Most people with the medical condition prefer to be called little persons. The words “dwarf ” and “midget” are considered insulting. Ethan has a condition known as achondroplasia, in which a person’s arms and legs are disproportionately short in relation to their torso. People with achondroplasia are usually of normal intelligence and

live normal life spans, but like Ethan, often have to cope with bone-related health problems. According to statistics gathered by the Little People of America (LPA) nonprofit society, achondroplasia occurs in one out of every 26,000 to 40,000 births. About 80 per cent of people with achondroplasia are born to parents of average height. Asked what he would tell people about himself if he had the chance, Ethan doesn’t hesitate. “I am a normal kid who just happens to have dwarfism,” he says. Next month (March), Ethan and his mom plan to attend the opening of a fundraising event for little people being co-ordinated

Firefighters add to charity White Rock firefighters will return to the Hero’s Panel this weekend in support of Variety The Children’s Charity. Four uniformed members of the Local 2407 crew – along with Mayor Wayne Baldwin – will take pledges from 10 a.m. to noon Feb. 12 during the 46th Annual Variety Children’s Charity Show of Hearts Telethon, broadcast live on Global BC. It will be the firefighters’ second year taking part in the fundraiser, which gets underway at 7 p.m. Feb. 11 and benefits B.C. children who have special needs. But it is not the first time their efforts have benefitted Variety. In September 2010, the firefighters spent two weeks cycling across Canada in support of the charity, raising tens of thousands of dollars for the cause. The Show of Hearts is Variety’s biggest fundraiser, generating millions of dollars every year. Last year, the telethon raised $7,012,483. For more information, visit www.variety.bc.ca/ teethon.htm To phone in a donation over the coming weekend, call 310-KIDS (5437); no area code is needed.

Although there was nothing in writing I knew that he was interested in supporting a charity where we both volunteered. I annually gave $10,000 from his account to the charity, which amounted to about 20% of his income. Last week a woman at my bridge club told me that I can’t continue to do this. I would like to set her straight so please conÀrm that I am doing the right thing.

lifestyles Calendar brings in more than $2,000

Raising more than eyebrows Sarah Massah Staff Reporter

Paul McDonough says he still can’t believe the reaction he’s received since stripping down and posing around White Rock in late November. The Marine Drive restaurant owner said there has been nothing but positive feedback for his project – a nude calendar featuring himself, his staff and friends in various stages of undress, all to raise funds for prostate cancer. “The reaction completely took us by surprise,� said McDonough, who owns Jimmy Flynn’s Celtic Snug. “It was really wellreceived.� The calendar, which went on sale in early December, was the suggestion of McDonough’s friend

File image

A story on Paul McDonough’s calendar project was published in Peace Arch News in November. and photographer Elke Tobisch, who had heard McDonough and friends talk about a way to raise money for the disease after the recent diagnosis’ of friends and family.

Initially, the goal was to raise $300, but strong community support meant they were able to raise far more than that. “We raised $2,500 in total. To be able to say you raised that much,

it’s unbelievable,� he said. McDonough said he was able to keep costs down because of the support he received from Buchanan Printing, who designed and printed the calendars at a discount. “They did it all for $2.50 each. They really stepped up to the plate,� he said. Half the proceeds were donated to the White Rock/South Surrey Hospice Society with the other half going to the BC Prostate Cancer Foundation On Jan. 17, former mayor and new executive director of the hospice society Catherine Ferguson and members of the cancer foundation were on-hand at Jimmy Flynn’s to accept the cheques for the donation.

‘Amazing’ response for Relay for Life The relay challenges participants to come together to celebrate cancer survivors, remember loved ones and raise funds. To date, 15 teams have signed up. Longtime relay participant Sue Scott, a City of White Rock employee who lost her husband to cancer in 2004, knows firsthand how important such events are. “Relay is a fun, rewarding event that is so effortless and gives all participants the opportunity to meet new friends, spend the night in a safe environment, walk at your leisure with new friends, raise funds for the cause and walk away in the morning knowing you made a difference in the cure,” she said in a release. To register, visit www.relaybc.ca/ whiterock2012 or call 604-536-2940.

‘Expressions of Love Bouquet’

Kevin Diakiw Black Press

When it comes to poop, Surrey’s 127,000 pups are extremely productive. In fact, according to recent figures, they generate 48 tons (43,354 kilograms, or 95,580 pounds) of excrement every day. That’s the equivalent weight of more than 20 pickup trucks. A Mustel Group market research study has found there are 127,440 dogs in the city. With the average dog generating less than halfa-kilogram of waste every day (according to a recent U.S. Environmental Protection Agency report), the volume of dog poop becomes a waste disposal issue. Leaving it in place is not an option as it poses a health hazard. As such, the fine in Surrey for failing to “scoop” after a dog is $200. But either Surrey dog owners are extremely good about picking up poop, or connecting the evidence to the culprit is difficult, because Surrey doesn’t hand out many tickets for dumping dogs and their derelict owners. In the first nine months of last year, 28 people were nabbed for having dogs at large in Surrey, and

City of Surrey staff are considering plans to eliminate excessive dog poop from its parks and public spaces. six dogs were found with no tag. Failing to fetch feces didn’t even make the top-10 list. David Justice, who walks his dog, Sunny, every day at Freedom Park in Fleetwood, says the majority of dog poop is being left on the ground. In the back trails at Freedom Park, Justice says there’s a “steaming heap” every few feet. “It’s just disgusting,” he says. “They should pick up the goddamn stuff.” What happens to the rest of it? City staff acknowledge that it ends up in a variety of places –

some is left where it lands, some is flushed down the toilet, and some is put into garbage cans and eventually taken to the landfill. The ideal situation, staff say, is to flush dog poop down the toilet, where it would undergo the same treatment as human waste. Parks manager Owen Croy said the city will soon be exploring ways to compost canine waste. “We’re looking at best practices from other communities, how to use biodegradable bags (and)... have a composting program that works,” Croy said.

The

Professionals fessionals On The Peninsula The breakthrough new way to SCULPT YOUR BODY! is pleased to have been chosen to be able to offer the treatment. How it works: As temperatures plunge, fat cells freeze long before muscle, skin or any other tissue does! Zeltiq Coolsculpting takes advantage of this by chilling fat deposits to around 45 degrees. “Damaged, frozen fat cells can’t be repaired by the body, so they’re smoothing out even stubborn fat pads within two to four months” says dermatologist Mark S. Nestor, M.D., Director of the Center for Cosmetic Enhancement in Miami, Florida. And specific troublespots can be easily targeted! What to expect: Zeltiq Coolsculpting takes about one hour per treated area. Since no anaesthetics, needles, or incisions are needed you can head back to your normal activities right away; there is no downtime. Treated areas tend to look red and feel a bit stiff for about 20 minutes, and some patients experience temporary bruising, numbness, or tenderness.

What studies show: “Zeltiq removes 20% - 25% of the fat from treated areas, but patients say their troublespots actually shrink 40% - 50%.” “It’s producing better results than the research had predicted. Patients love it!” The catch: If you’re obese, you will not be happy with this treatment, notes Caree Ludwar, owner of New Beauty Institute. “It’s meant for people who are close to their ideal body weight and want to get rid of stubborn pockets of fat - the sort of thing that wrecks the way clothing fits. However, we have had very good results with larger belly areas on some patients.”

business Employer says professional caregiver Robin Moran has a ‘gift’

‘Robin Redbreast’ lauded for work with seniors Dan Ferguson

R

Staff Reporter

obin Moran was recently recognized as caregiver of the year by her employer, Home Instead Senior Care, a White-Rock-based company that provides assistance to elderly people. During an interview with Peace Arch News about her award, Moran, a Cloverdale resident, said her clients tend to fall into one of two categories. There are those who have developed age-related cognitive problems who require supervision, and there are those whose mental faculties are fine, but need help coping with physical frailties. Like the irascible octogenarian woman who had gone blind and had tried for a while to cope by placing carpet mats around her home, indoors and out, as navigational aids. The woman’s family hired Moran to care for her, and it was a sometimes difficult experience for both the woman, an independent soul, and Moran, who had to weather her client’s occasional displays of bad temper. Every now and then, she says, the woman would get so frustrated that she would try to dismiss Moran. “You’re fired,” the woman would say. “You don’t pay me enough money

Cloverdale’s Robin Moran (left) was recently named “caregiver of the year” by Home Instead of White Rock. to fire me,” Moran would reply. Over time, the stubborn client and feisty caregiver worked things out. The older lady learned how to maneuver through stores and streets despite her vision impairment. “Sometimes, you find that people

can do more than they think,” Moran says. The two women became friends, and the client nicknamed the upbeat Moran “Robin Redbreast.” It may have been a reference to the traditional English rhyme of “Little Robin Red Breast,” a

feisty bird who is unfazed when confronted by a cat. When her client finally passed away, Moran went to her funeral. Moran says clients who have their wits about them can be challenging, but nothing like a person suffering from Alzheimer’s

or other form of dementia. One male client with dementia once got so angry with Moran that she had to, literally, run away. For about five minutes. By then, the client had calmed down and completely forgotten all about being mad at her. “Hey, how are you doing?” Moran said on her return. “OK,” the man said. “Want to go for a walk?” “OK.” And off they went. Moran, a mother of three and grandmother of five, tried retirement, but it didn’t suit her. After a stay in Mexico, she ended up back in B.C. where she spotted an ad for professional caregivers. Her boss, Wes Colby, says Moran has a “gift” for working with older people. “You can train someone forever, but if they don’t have that gift, it’s never going to work out,” Colby says. “It’s a calling.” Moran has worked in Surrey, White Rock and Langley for the last seven years and has several long term clients. “Balancing the demands of childrearing and careers while taking care of their senior loved ones can take its toll on a family,” Colby said. “Caregivers can serve as a respite to families and help seniors remain independent for as long as possible.”

Faked pregnancy ended parole for Surrey mother Dan Ferguson Staff Reporter

A Surrey Provincial Court judge jailed Renee Chelsea Leblanc last month after the 39-year-old mother of eight falsely claimed to be pregnant again to excuse her failure to meet with a probation officer. Leblanc was facing jail after admitting she stuffed the body of her tenant, 67-yearold Irving Bell, into a plastic tote in October 2008. She pleaded guilty in March 2010 to one count of interfering with a dead body, but was allowed to go free on $1,000 bail until her sentencing hearing. But that bail was revoked and Leblanc was imprisoned after she failed to show up for two scheduled meetings with her probation officer in December. Details of the court ruling revoking her parole were published online today (Thursday).

According to the written transcript of the Jan. 9 hearing, Leblanc claimed she could not attend the December meetings because she had just given birth to a baby boy by C-section at B.C. Children’s Hospital in Vancouver. She claimed she carried her new baby for the foster parents of her eighth child, a boy who was seized by the Ministry of Children and Family Development after he was born last Feb. 22. Her story did not stand up. The foster parents denied any agreement to have her carry a baby for them, and there was no record of Leblanc giving birth or even staying at the hospital when she claimed. On hearing that, Surrey Provincial Court Judge Michael Hicks revoked her bail. â€œâ€ŚMs. Leblanc has not been forthright with the court, and particularly has not been forthright

in recent times in respect to the birth of a child, and has used obfuscation to delay the process of bringing this matter to a conclusion‌,â€? Hicks said. Just over two weeks later, the same judge sentenced Leblanc to 21 months in jail, to be followed by three years probation. During court proceedings, Leblanc’s daughter testified for the prosecution that she, and her mother had discussed different ways of disposing of a human body after Bell died in their Whalley home. It happened on Oct. 5, 2008, when the daughter was 11 years old. On that day, Bell phoned 911 and said he was “getting killed.â€? By the time police arrived, Leblanc had dragged the man’s body underneath a pile of laundry. The officers left after Leblanc told them the call was a prank.

The next day, using Bell’s bank card, she bought a large plastic tote. The day after that, Leblanc got her daughter to help her wrap Bell’s body in plastic and stow it in the tote.

Personal flag flown Monday

Province marks Queen’s 60 years Tom Fletcher Black Press

VICTORIA – Queen Elizabeth II’s personal Canadian flag is usually flown above the B.C. legislature only during her visits, a tradition that was added to Monday to mark her 60th year on the throne. The flag was raised at the legislature at sunrise, commemorating Feb. 6, 1952 when Elizabeth II began her reign after her father King George VI died. Elizabeth II is now the longest-serving British monarch after Queen Victoria. Premier Christy Clark issued a statement congratulating the Queen on the occasion. “Her Majesty is no stranger to British Columbia,â€? Clark said. “She has visited more than a dozen cities, towns and communities during her four tours to our province, including in 1971 to mark the centennial anniversary of B.C. joining Confederation.â€? In Ottawa, Gov. Gen. David Johnston presented the Queen Elizabeth Diamond Jubilee Medal to 60 Canadians for public service. B.C. recipients included: • Tomas Avendano of Vancouver for his work with new immigrants • Barney Ellis-Perry of North Vancouver for work with Volunteer Canada • Darrell Fox of Vancouver for continuing the cancer research and education of his brother Terry Fox • Maureen Shaw of Victoria for her leadership in occupation health and safety and education for manufacturing workers • Master Seaman Christopher Mark Switzer of Victoria for his contributions to the Royal Canadian Navy and local charities • Lauren Woolstencroft of North Vancouver for her contribution to alpine skiing and the Paralympics.

B.C. shifts policy for liquefied natural gas Tom Fletcher Black Press

The B.C. government is relaxing the electricity self-sufficiency policy that has driven expansion of independent power projects, and put the focus on new electricity supply for a major expansion of liquefied natural gas exports. Premier Christy Clark made the announcement Friday in Burnaby. The self-sufficiency policy set in 2008 required BC Hydro to supply the province’s needs even in the lowest-water years when large hydroelectric reservoirs run low and B.C. has to import power. The new policy requires BC Hydro to be self-sufficient only in average-water years, and will lead to the purchase of more imported power in years of low snow and rainfall. B.C.’s announcement comes the day after the National Energy Board approved an export permit for B.C.’s second LNG facility near Kitimat. Chinese, Korean and Canadian energy

Christy Clark visits with industrial instrumentation apprentices at BCIT before making her announcement. companies have invested in the first two projects, and Shell has proposed a third. LNG production requires huge refrigeration and compression plants. The B.C. government estimates that with new electricity development it can power two plants. B.C. is joining a rush of LNG production aimed at taking advantage of high prices paid by Asian importers.

“Before I came to Dr. Nelson, my teeth showed the effects of many years of neglect, and I was not quick to smile. Also, it was difÀcult to chew food and was painful and frustrating and the reason I avoided dentists. After Dr. Nelson and the rest of his team worked on me, my teeth not only look great, but they also feel great. As far as the surgery goes, it was a minor event and the implants are just like my own teeth. If it is decided that implants are the best thing for you, or if something else is required, you will have the procedure explained and they will answer any questions you may have. As I said before, my teeth look and feel great and eating is a joy again. I now have a ready smile and people notice that.” –Alfred R.

More vaccine doses are being stockpiled in case an outbreak of whooping cough in the eastern Fraser Valley spreads further west. Hope, Agassiz and Chilliwack have so far seen most of the more than 100 confirmed local cases of pertussis, a highly contagious bacterial infection that causes adults to cough for months but can be deadly to babies. Fraser Health will acquire another 50,000 doses of vaccine by the second week of February in case public health officials decide to widen their immunization program. “We’ve seen sporadic cases in Maple Ridge, in Langley and in Surrey, so we know there’s some disease out there,” Chief Medical Health Officer Dr. Paul Van Buynder. “If it’s necessary in the next week or two we will run a program for the whole of the Fraser Valley.” Pertussis, or whooping cough, is considered more of an irritant for adults, but they act as carriers. Van Buynder said about half the very young children who contract pertussis are hospitalized and about one or two

per cent of those hospitalized die. “This is a nasty disease and it’s back in the Fraser Valley after an absence of about eight years,” Van Buynder said. Part of the challenge is that health authorities no longer use an older, more powerful vaccine due to concern over its side effects. The weaker vaccine that replaced it provides immunity for only about four to 10 years, Van Buynder said. Fraser Health wants to immunize all adults in outbreak areas who have close contact with young children, to prevent transmission. The new vaccine takes at least three doses to fully protect a child, he said, so Fraser Health is now vaccinating them earlier – as young as 14 weeks. Pregnant women are also being vaccinated, Van Buynder said, because it’s safe to use during pregnancy and immunity will extend to the newborn. Cases of pertussis in the eastern Valley took off in mid-December in Hope and nearby First Nations reserves. “We’ve started to see the spread of it down the Fraser Valley moving westward,” Van Buynder said, adding the most recent cases have been in Chilliwack.

Susanne de Pencier ‘pleasantly surprised’ at caliber of Drinking Alone auditions

Casting is key for White Rock play’s director Alex Browne

T

Arts Reporter

hey say half the battle in directing a play is making sure you cast it well. If that’s the case, Susanne de Pencier, director of the current White Rock Players Club production, Drinking Alone (Coast Capital Playhouse, 1532 Johnston Rd., until Feb. 25) has a distinct advantage. The White Rock resident recently retired after a 25-year career as a casting director for the B.C. film and television industry, including credits for MacGyver and The Commish, feature films, movies of the week and many commercials. She says she was pleasantly surprised at the calibre of actors who auditioned for the play, and pleased that Drinking Alone – which chronicles the chaotic reunion of two adult children with their long-estranged father – has turned out to be a vehicle for some of the Players Club’s betterknown actors (Roger Currie, Sheila Keating, Vanessa Klein), plus a couple of new faces (Sarah Green and Terry Thomas, seen previously in WRPC’s 20th Century). In the show, Ivan (Currie) returns to town after 15 years with a new wife, Phyllis (Keating) in tow, triggering crises for both daughter Carrie (Green), a successful television news personality who’s on the brink of alcoholism, and son Joe (Thomas), lonely manager of a moribund drycleaning business, who tries to impress his father by hiring a professional escort (Klein) to pose as his fiance. De Pencier said that although she was originally invited to direct this

marshmallow. When her dad shows up, this tough cookie turns into Jello. There’s one scene, when she confronts her father, that’s very touching. “Sarah is a gem. I hope her husband and two young sons allow her to do more theatre – she’s a real asset.” Part of the challenge of the role of Renee is that’s she’s an escort – not a hooker – de Pencier said. “She is the girl who’s hired to accompany someone to an event. When Joe wants her to pretend to be his fiance, she starts out thinking she won’t be able to do it – and then she falls very easily into the whole fantasy world of being his fiance. She starts to think it’s real. “Vanessa’s energy is amazing. I wish she had a real chance to sing in this show – she has a gorgeous voice. But I can’t imagine anyone else doing the role this justice.” De Pencier said she also appreciates Keating’s experience and subtlety as Phyllis. “She’s probably the only sane one – the only normal character in the play. She’s the voice of reason, the person that becomes the arbitrator. She’s got some subtle funny stuff, but she’s the straight person in the show. And what a prize it is to find an older woman who is so capable. “Of all the shows I’ve done, this is the most exceptional cast I’ve dealt with,” de Pencier added. Drinking Alone is presented with a warning of some coarse language. Performances are 8 p.m., Wednesday to Saturday, with a 2:30 p.m. matinee, Sunday, Feb. 19.

It’s a 30th anniversary event with a joyous musical flair. White Rock South Surrey Hospice Society will celebrate its 30th year of serving the community with a concert by Vancouver’s City Soul Choir, 7:30 p.m., Feb. 18 at White Rock Baptist Church, 1657 140 St. Founded in 2010, the choir, directed by award-winning composer Brian Tate, is a community group that draws on many

multicultural styles and traditions for a lively, wide-ranging repertoire. Often numbering as many as 90 members, the choir has won praise for its blend of gospel, world music, soul, pop and spirituals. “I’m super excited about this,” said former White Rock Mayor Catherine Ferguson, the society’s new executive director. “I haven’t yet had a chance to hear the choir, so this is going to be a real first for me,” she said. see page 35

Networking night planned for artists Calling all musicians, singers, songwriters, poets and artists – Five Corners rendezvous Coffee With Attitude (Laura’s Coffee Corner) at 15202 Pacific Avenue is offering an invitation for an evening of entertainment networking, Thursday, Feb. 16 from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. Proprietor Laura Cornale said participants are welcome to bring business cards and instruments. “It should be a fun evening – and a jam should break out,” Cornale added. For more information, call 604-538-6600.

Peninsula debut from page 33 “What’s really great is that Brian is going to lead the choir and also perform as part of Tri-Vo, a versatile a cappella vocal trio. “I’m thrilled – this is going to be a really cultural experience that is going to attract a lot of people. And those people are not only supporting hospice, they’re also helping us celebrate the anniversary.” The concert is close to her heart, she said, not only as a long-time supporter of hospice concept, but also as a former professional singer herself. Ferguson noted that City Soul, which usually does two performances a year in the Vancouver area, is

making its Peninsula debut. “One of our volunteers, Bill Ruppel was a part of the choir coming here – he’s a member of the choir, he brought it to our attention and helped us make the idea come to life.” This is the second big concert sponsored by hospice, which brought the Universal Gospel Choir to the Peninsula last May, but Ferguson said its too early to tell whether this will become a new tradition. “We’ll have to see,” she said. “It’s certainly a very positive way to start the new year.

In the meantime, there’s nothing to stop you from enjoying Valentine’s Day in the company of friends, co-workers, parents, or even your children. Make a date with some of your single friends for an evening out at a restaurant or a bar. You can celebrate the many advantages of friendship, a less intense feeling than love but just as essential to the good life. The camaraderie of co-workers is also worth celebrating with a simple Valentine’s “happy hour.” A small chocolate heart left on every desk is another gesture sure to be appreciated.

…on the Semiahmoo Peninsula

Men’s rugby team opens season with win

‘Don’t forget about us,’ says Bayside coach Nick Greenizan Sports Reporter

Ball battle

Tracy Holmes photo

Peace Arch Rangers’ Mitch Mahjen (left) fights for position against a Surrey United Predators’ player during a U13 boys Cup soccer game Saturday at Hillcrest Park. The teams were tied 1-1 after regulation time, but the Rangers won on penalty kicks, scoring on four of five attempts.

After losing a relegation game last fall – thus bouncing them from this spring’s premier men’s rugby league – members of the Bayside Sharks didn’t let the disappointment linger. Sure, they were upset, said head coach Pat Kearney, but it wasn’t something they were going to dwell on. “I don’t think we’re really thinking about it anymore,” he said. “It’s too bad, but now we’re (in Division 1), and we’re excited to get back out on the field. We’d like to go out there and win another trophy for the club – even if it’s not the premiership trophy.” The Sharks’ top squad – for years a fixture on the CDI Premier Rugby League schedule – was eliminated from the circuit after a 20-11 win-and-you’re-in game against Burnaby Lake in late November. Now, they’re competing in an independent first division league alongside five other sides – Richmond, Cowichan, Seattle, Vancouver Rowing Club and Velox (Victoria). The Sharks hosted Seattle in the season-opener last Saturday, winning a lopsided 87-0 affair. The Sharks’ seconddivision team edged their Emerald City foes 95-17. Though they’re playing in a lower division, Kearney said the majority of the team is still in place, minus a player here or there. “We’re going a bit younger, but the core group is still intact,” he said, adding that

veteran Jason Blaak has returned to the fold after some time away, and is serving as the team captain. A few others have taken the season off, including Brodie Henderson, who currently lives in Edmonton and had been flying in for premier games in the past. Kearney said a number of premier teams also inquired about borrowing Bayside’s top players for the spring – “Pete Clifford was a hot commodity, being the leading scorer in the fall league,” Kearney said – but all, he said, declined and instead chose to stick with the Sharks for the first-division season. That allegiance paid off in a big way Saturday, as the Sharks’ cruised past their Seattle visitors with ease. “Tons of guys scored, it was a good Saturday,” Kearney said, adding that Seattle was likely not fielding its top squad, as some players stayed behind due to passport or other issues. “I think when we go down there to play, it’ll be a different game.” And though Kearney doesn’t expect the rest of the season to feature blowout victories – “I don’t imagine we’ll roll through all our games like this,” he said – he said his players are motivated, and looking to catch the attention of teams not just in their first-division league, but the current premier circuit, as well. “We’re out here now to send a message – don’t forget about us. We’ll be back in the premier league before you know it,” he said.

Zig Zag Micheal Kors

If there’s one thing stylish women on the Peninsula love, it’s being able to find the hottest fashions and accessories right in their own backyard. At Zig Zag Fashion Boutique in Peninsula Village, you’ll find the most diverse selection of trendy clothes, footwear and accessories, without having to leave White Rock/South Surrey. Kerry The appeal of Zig Zag – a favourite among shoppers on the Peninsula for 16 years – extends beyond the great selection of highly sought-after brands and hard-to-find fashions. The knowledgeable and friendly staff love nothing more than helping customers find the look that suits them perfectly, and will go out of their way to make sure you’re looking better than ever in your new purchase. The store’s wide scope of brand name merchandise makes it one of the best places to shop in town, especially with clothing brands including Not Your Daughter’s Jeans, Esprit, Tribal, Chalet, Niki Biki, Kenneth Cole and Michael Kors. The store is also the exclusive dealer of Fly London, which helps make up their wide selection of shoe brands including Michael Kors, DKNY, Bussola, Rieker, Kenneth Cole, Naots, Fit Flops and Blundstones for men and women. With so many brands to choose from, it’s no surprise residents are ditching plans to cross the border or head downtown and instead are staying home to satisfy their fashion needs. And the loyalty between Zig Zag staff and customers goes both ways. The store offers a unique discount program that rewards customers with points on every purchase of regular-priced merchandise. When a customer reaches 500 points, they receive a $50 gift card to spend in the store. If it’s your birthday, make sure you take time to visit Zig Zag, as the store offers a 25 per cent discount to help you celebrate your big day. As the fall season edges winter out, expect to see lots of wedges in store, as well as retro polka dots and bright, fun colours to give a pop to an outfit – including leggings from their collection of Hues tights. And to top off any outfit, make sure you take a look at their fabulous selection of jewelry and reading glasses. Whatever style or trend you seek, the friendly staff at Zig Zag Fashion Boutique will help you find the perfect look so you’ll leave their store feeling your best.

Bringing Vision to

Spectrum Optometry

Life

Eye Care You Can See

When it comes to taking care of your health and that of your family, having experienced, knowledgeable and caring health practitioners is of the utmost importance. Dr. Stephanie Gautier The health of your eyes is no exception – which is Dr. Michelle Elliott why SPECTRUM Optometry strives to provide great patient care on a full range of services to ensure optimum eye health for your whole family. “Providing patients with the highest quality care, service and products to enhance your unique lifestyle” is the mission statement at SPECTRUM Optometry. Whether it’s a full eye health examination – including testing for standard ocular diseases like glaucoma, cataracts and diabetes – to contact lens fitting and eyeglass dispensing, the professional and knowledgeable team at SPECTRUM Optometry can take care of it all. Patients can rest assured when visiting SPECTRUM Optometry that they’re in good hands. Dr. Michelle Elliott is a published researcher and University of Waterloo graduate with a Bachelor of Science degree in Biochemistry, as well as a Doctor of Optometry degree. Dr. Stephanie Gautier – who joined the Spectrum team in 2009 – obtained her Bachelor of Science in Microbiology and Immunology at the University of British Columbia, and her Doctor of Optometry at the University of Waterloo, and, like Dr. Elliott, has earned numerous awards for her work and studies. Both doctors believe strongly in giving back and regularly take part in eye care missions to help improve the eye health of those less fortunate. Another thing the doctors both agree on is the importance of regular eye examinations in order to maintain not only your eye heath, but overall health as well. Sun protection is important to consider all year long.

THE WHITE ROCK PLAYERS’ CLUB

White Rock Players Club

presents

Drinking Alone - by Norm Foster Directed by Susanne dePencier

With more than 67 years under their belt – including 51 years at their current Johnston Road location – the White Rock Players Club knows a thing or two about putting on a show. The non-profit, volunteer-run theatre group has always strived to provide top-notch entertainment for its community at the Coast Capital Playhouse Dave Baron located at 1532 Johnston Rd., and this year is no different. After their popular Christmas pantomime Mother Goose, the Club is jumping in to their next project, Drinking Alone by Norm Foster, about a comically dysfunctional family reunion. The Feb. 8-25 comedy will be directed by noted local director, Susanne de Pencier. When spring rolls around, the Club will take a slightly more serious turn with the classic drama The Lion in Winter, by James Goldman. Telling the story of the King of England trying to decide which of his three sons will inherit the kingdom, this play is set to run April 11-28, and will have award-winning director Dale Kelly at the helm. Rounding out the season will be one of Ken Ludwig’s popular farces, Lend Me a Tenor (June 13-30) following backstage chaos at an opera company in the 1930s, directed by Ryan Mooney. The Players Club produces five shows per year, offering audiences highcalibre theatre, in a convenient local venue, with free parking and affordable ticket prices. The Coast Capital Playhouse will also be hosting the Fraser Valley Gilbert & Sullivan Society’s production of The Mikado in May, Peninsula Production’s The Mousetrap in July, and Fighting Chance Production’s Little Shop of Horrors in August, as well as a variety of concerts. Check our website for details and tickets. There’s something for everyone at the Coast Capital Playhouse! And for those who may find the uptown streetscape a little dull, the White Rock Players Club is planning to do something about that, give the club a call or send an email asking how you can help decorate the south wall of the Playhouse with a beautiful mural by famous local artist Elizabeth Hollick! For more information about the season, or to reserve tickets for the shows, visit www.whiterockplayers.ca or call 604-536-7535.

Sight Testing

Debbie Mozelle Designer Optical

FREE SALE 50-100 %

For ages over nineteen and under sixty-five.

Ask about Digital Progressives with no peripheral distortion!

Debbie Mozelle Designer Optical is family owned and operated and has been in business for more than 21 years. With locations in both White Rock and Langley they are able to offer a wide array of quality products at very reasonable prices. In addition, they also proudly provide free sight testing. With so many different styles available, the experienced staff is able to match the right frame for your face shape for the perfect look. And for those Debbie Mozelle who think shopping online can save money, owner Debbie Mozelle says their prices for eyewear and contact lenses are about the same as what you find on the Internet, but the big difference is you can see what you’re buying before you pay, and the staff adds a personal touch by adjusting the frame to fit exactly how you like it. “We can adjust the nose pads and make changes to the angle that the frame fits with our special optical instrument before any important measurements are taken,” she said. “Some people have one ear higher than the other one, or one ear further forward than the other. “We can make any changes that may be required to the frame fit.” Debbie says she loves it when someone buys a frame online and actually brings it into the shop to have the lenses put in. In the fast-paced Internet age, the company has found ways to adapt and stay modern in their business. But regardless of the changes in business practices, one thing that won’t change is the human interaction and personal touch provided by the experienced staff at Debbie Mozelle Designer Optical. “We have one local hairdresser who comes in once every two or three months to take advantage of our free sight testing and upgrade her lenses,” Debbie said. “She loves the designer frame prices that she can find online, but likes our follow up service. Sure, you can find lower prices on the Internet but at the end of the day it costs the same and it is nice to be served by a licensed optician, as they are so knowledgeable, friendly and easy to talk to.” Providing excellent service is key to Debbie Mozelle Designer Optical’s success. Whether you lose a screw, or someone has sat on your glasses, the team is more than happy to help. The shop has an eyeglass surfacing lab on premises and can also fit contact lenses. “It is great that we have all these shopping choices and this gives more value to the customer,” Debbie said. “You are welcome to visit our store and we look forward to seeing you soon. At Debbie Mozelle Designer Optical the customer is king!”

Hillcrest Bakery & Deli Since 1972, Hillcrest Bakery and Deli has been offering up delicious, made-from-scratch food to the people in the community. Walk in on any given day and you will be greeted by the friendly, knowledgeable staff and the irresistible smell of homemade goods. With an unbeatable selection of bread, pastry, meat and other scrumptious treats, it’s no wonder the community staple has been David & Sheana Moyer around for four decades. And with new owners David and Sheana Moyer at the reins, there is no doubt it will be around for years to come. After taking over last spring, the couple have successfully continued the tradition of making fresh, delicious food. Whether it’s the light and Áuffy cinnamon bread (which David says makes a great French toast) or the chicken wings made by Raj, the deli lead, there is no end to what the team at Hillcrest can whip up. With a wide selection of tasty treats such as their sausage rolls, pies, quiches, pizza, soups and more than 60 different varieties of bread, there is a little something for everyone. Even the four-legged friend in your life can indulge in a treat from the bakery with their homemade doggy biscuits packaged up and ready to go. But it’s not all about the food. The Moyers have also maintained the impeccable customer service that Hillcrest Bakery and Deli is known for. David, who has been baking at Hillcrest for 24 years, credits his wife Sheana’s ability to make people feel welcome and at home which is why there is such a strong relationship between staff and customers. Sheana constantly reaches out to her customers to Ànd out what they want to see when they come in. “It’s important, with any business, to listen to your customers, build relationships and listen to their feedback,” Sheana said. Balancing the new with the old is essential to the Moyers, who know many of the customers coming in for a hearty bowl of homemade soup and a sandwich have been regulars for decades and love the familiarity of the bakery. While they promise to keep most of the customer favourites, they are excited to add some new creations, especially with the 40th anniversary of the bakery and deli coming up. “We’re open to new ideas,” Sheana said. “We want to move with the times.” Visit Hillcrest Bakery and Deli and the friendly staff will be happy to help you Ànd what you’re looking for, whether it’s an old favourite or a new addition, there is no going wrong with fresh, handmade goods.

Chocolaterie Bernard Callebaut For close to 20 years, Chocolaterie Bernard Callebaut has been tantalizing the tastebuds of chocolate lovers on the Peninsula with their delicious chocolate treats. Made with only the finest ingredients, these awardwinning chocolates are world-famous, and after just one taste, it’s easy to see why. Now, there is another reason to indulge in the decadence of chocolate. Customers will find that many of the prices have been lowered, but not at the expense of quality or customer service. Chocolaterie Bernard Callebaut is dedicated to Jackie Pearson sourcing the finest quality ingredients for their chocolate and chocolate products. They also aim to provide their customers with a memorable, positive, chocolate shopping experience. Owner Jackie Pearson took over the business after her father, Malcolm, passed away in 2006 and is proud to be carrying on his tradition of fine chocolate as well as community involvement. The chocolaterie has sponsored Vintage Affair since its inception – a wine tasting gala that raises money for the White Rock South Surrey Community Foundation. “It’s not just having the access to such delicious chocolate, but being able to share it with others,” says Jackie, who can be found rolling truffles and handing them out at Vintage Affair, A Taste of the Peninsula, the WRSS Chamber of Commerce mixer at Semiahmoo House and Taste of Ocean Park community fundraiser. “I always love to watch people’s faces when I give out samples at community events. You can see by their expressions that they’re experiencing absolute bliss!” Jackie also raffles huge chocolate Santa’s and Easter Bunnies from Chocolaterie Bernard Callebaut, with all proceeds going to the Food Bank operated by Sources Community Resource Centres. Stepping inside the chocolate shop, one’s senses are taken to great heights. The decadent smell of rich, creamy chocolate wafts out of the store, tempting chocolate lovers with its delicate molds, decadent bars, seasonal items and much, much more, all of which comes elegantly wrapped. One can even find the best baking supplies around – your home-baked goodies will be more popular than ever when they’re prepared with their baking bars, chocolate drops, shavings and cocoa power, all made with ingredients of the highest quality, with low sugar and high cocoa content. If you haven’t been to this delectable South Surrey shop lately, you’ll want to drop in and check out their new line-up before Valentine’s Day, which includes a set of Twelve Chocolates, beautifully packaged for the season. The Twelve contains unique pairings that are new to the Chocolaterie Bernard Callebaut line-up, using ingredients such as Earl Grey tea or mango and pink peppercorn to further enhance the decadence of their chocolate. Exciting and new, something you won’t want to miss and at a price of only $17. And for your littlest Valentine you might like to take home “Huggy Bear.” This white chocolate polar bear is specially wrapped for Valentines and sure to put a sweet smile on the face of a loved one. With such a selection, like the delicious new dark chocolate heart with a passion fruit centre, it’s no wonder Chocolaterie Bernard Callebaut has been nominated for South Surrey/White Rock’s Chamber of Commerce’s award for Business of The Year. Visit Chocolaterie Bernard Callebaut at Peninsula Village Shopping Centre, and the friendly, knowledgeable staff will be happy to help you find what you’re looking for – whether it’s a gift for your sweetheart or a special someone you want to thank, – the mouth-watering chocolates you will find are a dream come true.

Check Point Plumbing With a commitment to customer satisfaction and nearly 100 years of combined industry experience, Check Point Plumbing is proud to offer top-notch, knowledgeable service you can count on. Beth, Dave, Rich & Kent Whether it’s a clogged sink, a leaky hot water tank or a gas fireplace on the fritz, the team at Check Point Plumbing will get the job done quickly and accurately, according to coowner Beth Henderson. “We do the job right the first time and ensure that the customer is satisfied,” Henderson said. “We’re very proud of the work we do.” With winter upon us, it’s the time of year many homeowners think about replacing their old, inefficient furnace with a newer and more efficient model. In some respects, today’s high-efficiency furnaces, which generally start around $4,000, are better engineered than the $30,000 car you drive off the lot. With up to 95 per cent efficiency, more heat goes into your home than up the chimney with older models. Redesigned heat exchangers – complete with recovery coils – better insulation with state-of-the-art controls and energy-efficient blower motors, some with four speeds and quiet as a whisper, all provide long-lasting comfort. High and low-fire gas valves combined with variable speed blowers provide the perfect amount of heat required – for warmer days, the gas valve fires on low mode and the blower cuts in on low speed; for cold days, both the gas valve and the blower operate on high to bring your home up to a set temperature, where it will stay comfortably. Also important is a good digital thermostat to replace the old mechanical style you may still have. The friendly folks at Check Point Plumbing would be more than happy to visit your home to check out your existing unit and make some recommendations. With an emphasis on providing great customer service and competitive pricing, Check Point Plumbing is your best choice for all your plumbing, heating and gas fitting needs.

Poultry in Motion For more than 20 years, Holly Valentine, owner of Poultry and Motion on Marine Drive, has been the go-towoman for all things breakfast. But as hard as it is to believe, the delicious eggs and bacon she now serves up would never have existed if it had not been for customer suggestions. Before she was serving up Mishady omelettes (fluffy eggs stuffed with delicious veggies and topped with silky Holly Valentine avocados and tangy feta cheese) Poultry in Motion was a deli with glistening rotisserie chickens turning in the window (which was actually Holly’s inspiration for the name). After a suggestion to cook up the bacon she would slice and sell, she scrambled some eggs on top of her cappucino machine (a unique and successful method) - and made her breakfast staple. “I built my restaurant on eggs and bacon,” she said. After receiving an overwhelming positive response, she got rid of the deli case and focused on breakfasts. Now people come from all over to sample the fresh, local ingredients Holly combines to make her hearty, breakfast creations, whether it’s the omelettes,waffles, homemade bread or her eggs benedict with ham – which will be on special for $7.99 for the month of February as a special treat to customers. “My last name is Valentine, so I had to do something good for Valentine’s Day,” she said. And it would be impossible to talk about Holly without mentioning her “best in the world” raspberry muffins, containing a top-secret ingredient that she vows never to reveal. Holly is so serious about the ingredient, she has her staff sign a non-disclosure statement. “People always ask me how to make it at home, but I’ll never tell,” she said, laughing. As for the future, Poultry in Motion will be turning 22 in March and will be coming full circle as Holly works to bring back the deli that started it all. “I’m really excited to be incorporating the deli back into Poultry in Motion, I think people will love it,” Valentine said. But that’s not all. The store will also have more homemade breads, soups made from scratch to take home and even rotisserie chicken. So make sure to stop by Poultry in Motion, whether it’s the lure of a delicious breakfast, the outstanding view or the world’s best raspberry muffin, one thing is for sure, you won’t leave hungry.

Developer presents rehab centre with cheque from collected fines

Morningstar proud of its safety record When those who work on a construction site do not comply with the regulations imposed by WorkSafe BC, they are given a fine. Morningstar Homes decided that the funds should go to a good cause, and donated the $14,660 they collected last year to the GF Strong Rehabilitation Centre in Vancouver. “Safety is not something we take lightly at Morningstar, and (we) have incorporated policies and procedures into our daily practices to make the workplace a safe environment for all,” says Morningstar President Robert Morse. “We seek to ensure the safest workplace possible and do everything within our power to educate and facilitate safe working practices.” GF Strong is B.C.’s largest and most specialized centre for rehab. It serves people

with work-related injuries as well as those stemming from sports, an accident, a stroke or a degenerative condition such as ALS or Parkinson’s Disease. “We are happy to report that we have never incurred a serious work-related accident in the history of Morningstar,” says VicePresident of Sales and Marketing Deborah Calahan. “It is our hope that through our diligence and commitment to a safe working environment that these infractions will continue to diminish ... we lead by example and hope this will encourage others to commit to the same high standard.” Examples of fined offences include not wearing a hard hat or proper safety gear. “We are proud of our record and we intend to keep it that way,” Calahan says.

‘Stylish single-level living’

Living the creekside life at Headwaters by Kerry Vital

Situated beside creeks and sheltering trees, Headwaters in the Morgan Creek area of Surrey is a private, secluded enclave that almost reaches out and hugs you. With the creek on two sides, nature has done a superb job of creating a earthly paradise. “Nature does the job better than I ever could,” says Treegroup VicePresident of Sales and Marketing Rod Sopko. With Treegroup’s 20 years of experience building homes, South Surrey showed them it had a lot of potential to be an amazing place to live. With 13 different floorplans available, buyers at Headwaters won’t have any trouble finding the perfect condominium home to suit their needs. “There is something there for everybody,” Sopko says. The homes range from 651 to 1,279 square feet, in a variety of one-, two- and threebedroom plans. Inside, the kitchens and bathrooms are spectacular. With recessed pot lighting and beautiful shaker-style cabinetry in your choice of Rich Expresso Stain or Fresh Antique White, both the kitchen and master bathroom are calm and soothing. The kitchen backsplash is chic and modern, in either Cool Grey or Cloud White. Complemented by the white-speckled Brazilian granite countertops and island in your gourmet kitchen, dark laminate wood flooring is a true focal point throughout the main living areas.

There is something here for everybody,” says Treegroup Vice-President of Sales and Marketing Rod Sopko.

big feature at Headwaters, the on-site business centre is a selling point as well. With an Internet lounge, private offices available for meetings, a screening room and a conference room, your every business need will be taken care of. There is also a concierge available. There is also a lifestyle centre that features a fireside lounge, gourmet kitchen, screening room and a flexible lounge space. The third jewel in the Headwaters amenities crown is the fitness centre, which includes a fully equipped gym and the use of a personal trainer. If your New Years resolution to

lose those last 10 pounds is falling by the wayside, you will no longer have any excuse at Headwaters. If you feel like venturing off the property for a bit of recreation, there are several golf courses and athletic parks in the area. Shopping, restaurants and several schools are also just a short walk or drive away. Located on-site at 15428 31st Avenue, the show suite and sales centre is open daily from 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. Homes start at $256,500. For more information, visit headwatersclub.ca or call 604-535-1451.

Each home includes a workspace area that Treegroup calls a Personal Hub. This space, with a built-in desk complemented by frosted glass accent windows and recessed lighting, can be used for anything you want, from a home office to a leisure nook perfect for curling up on a rainy day. Buyers are already pleased with their purchase. “The homes at Headwaters offer stylish single-level living as well as amazing on-site amenities that allow easy work-from-home flexibility and a host of leisure opportunities,” says Craig Harrold, who was so impressed that he e-mailed 25 of his friends to tell them about it, Sopko says. While the location is definitely a

HOLTBY, Arthur Wilbur (Bill) June 4, 1918 February 3, 2012 Bill passed away peacefully at Morgan Place, Surrey, BC, with his 2 daughters by his side. Bill will be greatly missed by his loving family: his daughters Carole and her husband Ken of Priddis, AB and Georgia, of Surrey, BC., his devoted grandchildren and their families, Kerry and Andrea (Jessica, Owen, and Drew), Brett and Kara (Tyler and Ella), Jim and Jody (Madison, Miller and a baby girl to arrive later this month), Lorrenne and Jody (Zia, Annise, Mabel and Abner), his two sisters, Kay and Jean and his sister-in-law, Ruth. In 1999, Bill was predeceased by his wife, Lorraine, the love of his life. Bill was so very proud of all of his grandchildren and greatly delighted in his 11 great grandchildren. The associations through his years of working in the hospital in Melfort and Moose Jaw, SK, and his friendships made in the Rotary Club brought much fulfillment to his life. The family would like to thank all his friends for their love and concern during his illness. We would also like to send a special thank you to all the staff on the Cobden Unit at Morgan Place for their loving and compassionate care. A Celebration of Bill’s Life will be held at Victory Memorial Park Funeral Centre, 14831 - 28th Avenue, South Surrey, on Sunday, February 12, 2012 at 2:00 pm. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Bill’s memory to Prostate Cancer, at VGH and UBC Hospital Foundation, 855 West 12th Avenue, Vancouver, BC, V5Z 1M9, or a charity of your choice.

RUDOSKY, ALVINA (WINNIE) ELIZABETH NOV. 15, 1924 - FEB. 5, 2012 It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our mother Winnie after a courageous fight with Alzheimer disease. Predeceased by her husband Henry (Hank) and daughter Wendy, she is survived by her son Ross, daughter-in-law Rosa, grandchildren Zsolt andbcclassified.com Rita, great grandchildren Adam and Daniel. Winnie was born in Grayson, Saskatchewan and moved to Vancouver with the family, when she was a child. Winnie married Hank on Dec.1, 1950 and moved onto a homestead at Forest Grove, B.C. There they ranched, logged and lived a “pioneer� life until 1964, when electricity was finally brought to the homestead. After Hank passed away in 1990, Winnie moved back to Vancouver, to be with family and later to Caroline (Alberta) to be with her daughter Wendy. After the sudden passing of Wendy, her memory loss increased and she moved to White Rock to be with her family. Special thanks are given to the staff at Weatherby Pavilion in White Rock, Peace Arch Hospital for their care, attention and generosity. Thanks to Grace, her companion, who filled in when the family could not be there. We are eternally grateful. At Winnie’s request there will be no funeral. In lieu of flowers please make a donation to the Alzheimer Society of B.C.

The energy of the full moon makes you daydream about travelling. If you are inspired to leave on an adventure, just make sure you don’t forget important papers on your desk.

CANCER

CAPRICORN

Friends will try to persuade you to sign up for a new, regular activity. If you agree, it will improve your social life.

You might be a little bit on edge right now, especially if you are in a difficult financial situation. Keep up your morale: the solutions to your problems are coming soon.

LEO

AQUARIUS

Action and energy levels are high this week, especially if you have young children at home. Don’t be surprised if a family member goes to live abroad for a period of time.

It feels like the most difficult negotiations are always with family members. When you let your emotions get involved, it’s harder to make a decision. Try to stand back and see your reaction.

VIRGO

PISCES

The full moon may drain your energy. This is nevertheless a perfect time to get creative and undertake a work of art that expresses your emotions.

You will be successful at work this week. You will gather a group of people together to enjoy some discounts.
