Pilot dies after charter plane tries to return to runway in Richmond

White Rock man survives plane crash Sheila Reynolds Black Press

A White Rock man was among the passengers on the small plane that crashed and burst into flames on a Richmond road Thursday afternoon, killing its pilot. But family members say Troy Zanatta is declining comment on the crash until more is known about the condition of the co-pilot and others injured in the crash. Pilot Luc Fortin, 44, of North Vancouver died of injuries suffered in the crash of the

small chartered plane, which made a belly landing short of the runway, just after takeoff from Vancouver International Airport. Reached by phone Friday morning, after Zanatta was discharged from hospital, his wife, Leanne, issued a short statement. “He’s alive and we’re grateful,” she said. Leanne wouldn’t confirm reports that Troy had escaped from the wreckage and subsequently went back in to help others, saying only that “it’s his story to tell.” She said simply that she is happy to have

her husband home. “He’s very blessed,” she said. According to Vancouver Airport Authority, the Kelowna-bound Northern Thunderbird Air Beech King Air 100 took off with seven passengers and two crew on board. The Transportation Safety Board said the plane then reported trouble and turned around. In a recording of the pilot’s discussion with air-traffic controllers before the crash, the pilot sounded calm but, minutes later, the plane came down onto Russ Baker Way.

Witnesses reported seeing the small twinengine plane bank and then hit a light standard. A car was hit, and drivers assisted people out of the flaming wreckage. Fortin died around 9 p.m. Thursday evening, after suffering fire-related injuries. Two others were listed in critical condition, with some in stable but serious condition. Zanatta, who co-owns Restwell Sleep Products in South Surrey, was with a group that had chartered the plane to Vernon. - with files from Richmond Review

Schools announced

Surrey gets lion’s share of new funds Sheila Reynolds Black Press

It’s been a long time coming, but Surrey will finally be able to build some new school space for its evergrowing number of students. The provincial government is providing $300 million in capital funding to be spent on 19 projects in seven districts throughout B.C. Of the 19 projects, eight (worth about $102 million) are in Surrey. The money – announced in Surrey Monday by Pre❝Surrey mier Christy Clark needs more – targets expansions than this.❞ to two high schools Christy Clark – Fraser Heights Secondary, which premier has 16 portables on site, and Panorama Ridge Secondary, where there are 14 portables. Also planned are two new elementaries in South Newton and East Clayton, as well as money to purchase land for four new schools – two elementaries and two secondaries – to eventually relieve overcrowding at Earl Marriott and Lord Tweedsmuir secondaries. With EMS and LT forced to adopt an extended timetable, no new school capital provided since 2005 and about 250-plus portables cluttering school grounds this year, the money was welcomed by some. see page 4

One of the last original buildings of the historic border community of Douglas was demolished, while a small crowd of neighbours looked on.

Douglas neighbours mark end of an era Alex Browne Staff Reporter

The dark salmon-pink cottage wasn’t designated a heritage home, but it held a lot of history in its walls. It was an occasion for chai tea, cookies – and a lot of memories – when a small group of neighbours gathered to mark the end of an era Wednesday as they watched the demolition of the cottage, one of the last original buildings of the historic border community of Douglas. About 10 people – ranging from children to

seniors – were present to keep alive the spirit of the community as a bulldozer tore into the wooden house, formerly the Peace Arch Coffee Shop and bakery, at 16881 Peace Park Dr. Much of the settlement of Douglas vanished in the early ’30s, bulldozed to create Peace Arch Park to complement the border landmark. But the cottage – across the street – was one of the last original survivals of the earlier community. Although accounts preserved by White Rock Museum and Archives say it was built in 1940 by Esther ‘Ma’ Crosfield, original proprietor of

the coffee shop, it’s believed the building was converted from a cottage built decades before, when record keeping was much sketchier. In 1952, it was sold to Louis Hayd – famous as Barkerville’s baker during the Depression years – who enlarged the coffee shop to add a bakery. It became a house again in the early ’60s after Hayd closed shop. The current owner plans to rebuild on the quarter-acre lot, according to Michael Bugera, the most recent rental tenant, who had lived there for the past eight years.

news Not realistic to halt construction, incumbent says

Watts challenger targets new city hall Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

A South Surrey resident running for mayor in the Nov. 19 civic election is calling for a halt to any construction on the new city hall. But incumbent Dianne Watts says Ross Buchanan’s appeal – along with claims the project will cost at least $97 million and up to $200 million – is “totally unrealistic.” “That’s not going to happen,” Watts said. “This is a whole complex plan of moving the city forward. I understand that he needs an election issue – I get that – but this has been in the works for a very long time. “There’s a big hole in the ground and contracts have been let, and so we’re not going to put all those people out of work, start cancelling contracts and leave a big hole in the city centre.” Schematics for the 180,000-square-foot facil-

ity were unveiled in June 2010. A site on the south side of 104 Avenue, east of University Boulevard, has been excavated, and construction is expected complete by the fall of 2013. Buchanan, describing the project as a “boondoggle,” cited cost as a key reason why the work should not Ross Buchanan candidate proceed. At least two Surrey Civic Coalition council candidates – Rina Gill and Stephanie Ryan – have announced they share the sentiment. In addition to the cost factor, Buchanan – one of seven mayoral candidates – said the timing is bad for this scope of a project. “This is a huge debt that we’re taking on,” Buchanan said. “My question is… is this the

right project and if it is, is now the right time?” Watts said Friday that the building will cost $50 million, with a portion to be recovered through leasing out the existing city hall on 56 Avenue. She said a September 2010 bylaw authorizing the city to borrow up Dianne Watts to $97 million is money that incumbent was locked in through the Municipal Finance Authority “to make available if we need it – we may not – at a very low interest rate.” Regarding lease revenue, Watts confirmed the city is “going through the process” with the provincial government to see the existing facility leased for expansion of the justice precinct. The area is currently home to the

Surrey RCMP detachment, remand centre and Surrey Provincial Court. Taxes have not been increased to pay for the project, she added. And, a satellite office will be established in a South Surrey facility. In response to Buchanan’s claims infrastructure of the existing city hall is more than adequate, Watts said the new facility is part of a larger effort to increase sustainability. In addition to a plaza and a council chamber that converts to theatre space, it will have a community daycare and space for seniors. It will also be close to SkyTrain, she said. “It’s not just around space. It’s around building a city,” she said. Buchanan maintained it’s a project that has divided the city, and that warrants review. “People would like to know the truth behind what the numbers are here,” he said. “There’s a whole bunch of people asking questions.”

50 attend school district debate

Trustee candidates talk power struggle Sheila Reynolds Black Press

The topics ranged from funding and overcrowding, to technology, standardized testing and bullying, as candidates for Surrey school trustee faced the public for a pre-election allcandidates meeting Wednesday evening. About 50 voters showed up at the District Education Centre on 92 Avenue to hear what would-be trustees had to say. Organized by the Surrey District Parent Advisory Council, 11 of 14 candidates attended. A lack of capital funding and inequitable Community Link funding for vulnerable students underlined much of the evening’s debate, with incumbent trustees fired upon for an apparent lack of success in securing provincial dollars. One spectator – applauding the Vancouver board for its “courageous” stand – said Surrey

trustees have been too quiet. Trustee Shawn Wilson, a member of Surrey First Education who’s been on the board for 12 years, said trustees have always approached the issue with the province in a “respectful and polite manner.” Trustee Terry Allen agreed, and said it’s simply a matter of the provincial government not listening. “The only people that can make the change is you,” Allen told the audience. “The truth is, you have the power.” Other candidates said a new tactic is needed. “We need people to… actually speak up,” said SCC candidate Ram Sidhu, pointing out the district’s 250-plus portables isn’t acceptable. “What do we need? We need change,” said SCC’s Moh Chelali, referring to the longtime members of the Surrey Board of Education. “We need a much more collaborative

approach,” said independent Paul Hillsdon, adding it’s not enough to go to the media every week saying, “we need more money.” Trustees were asked what changes are coming to address 21st-century learning needs. SCC candidate Laurence Greeff said he didn’t want to see Surrey become an “experiment for American-style reform” and that vulnerable children will lose out if technology is embraced too tightly. The most important thing in schools, he said, is how students are socializing. “The idea of a child sitting in front of a computer all day is not good,” Greeff said. Sidhu said it’s important to fear technology as much as embrace it, saying students learn more from a teacher than from a computer. see page 4 MORE ONLINE Ê visit peacearchnews.com

The City of White Rock has paid more than $1 million to consultants in the first nine months of 2011, officials heard last week. In presenting her third-quarter report Oct. 24, financial services director Sandra Kurylo told members of the finance and audit committee that more than half – $553,387 – of the total was spent between July and September. The report notes $269,136 was spent on consultants from April to June; another $247,598 was paid from January to March. The $1,070,121 year-to-date figure is more than double that spent on consultants in the first nine months of 2010 – a fact Kurylo said can be largely attributed to “the significant level of capital improvements underway.” “The budget for that is significantly high this year,” she said. Both figures – which are still subject to year-end review – take recoveries from grants and other contributions into account. A detailed preliminary list identifies payments ranging from $217 for a drainage-fee bylaw update, to $57,434, for a Phase 2 storm sewer condition assessment. In her report, Kurylo notes policy calls for consultant use when: • specific expertise is not available in-house; • it is not cost-effective for the project to be undertaken by staff; • it is important to limit legal liability; • there is a statutory requirement to hire a consultant; • independent, objective advice is required; or • flexibility is needed to meet tight, unexpected timeframes. The committee voted to receive the information.

Debate from page 3 Incumbent Reni Masi said incorporating technology in the classroom is an “evolutionary process.” More than 5,000 Surrey kids were in summer school doing online learning this year, he said, adding it’s more than just children sitting in front of computers and all about them working with other students and teachers. Concern was expressed about creating equity among schools, so lowerincome neighbourhoods aren’t stuck with outdated equipment, while higher-income areas can fundraise. Having “have and havenot schools” isn’t acceptable, said SCC candidate Sukhy Dhillon. Asked by one parent what candidates would do to ensure no more school days are lost to save money, Allen said there is no educational value to having a twoweek spring break but that without it, programs would have suffered. Referring to the longer spring break and the extended days implemented at overcrowded Earl Marriott Secondary and Lord Tweedsmuir Secondary, incumbent Ijaz Chatha said “all these are Band-Aid solutions. I am not in favour that this should be continued.” One man told the candidates school bullying not only continues, but at some high schools where there is a large percentage of South Asians, the harassment is becoming more caste and religion-based. Candidates Malkiat Singh Kang, Pam Glass and Laurie Larsen did not attend.

A move to eliminate eight nurse positions from residential-care facilities at Peace Arch Hospital is not about saving money, health officials said. Responding to concerns expressed by the B.C. Nurses Union last week, Fraser Health spokesman Roy Thorpe-Dorward said changes underway region-wide are affecting the staffing mix at Fraser Healthowned facilities – not the staffing budget. “This is not a cost-savings change,” Thorpe-Dorward said. In letter to the editor issued last week (see page 7), BCNU president Debra McPherson describes a plan to eliminate eight registered nurses and registered psychiatric nurses from PAH’s Weatherby and Dr. Al Hogg pavilions as an “ill-advised” costsavings decision that will affect the care of senior residents. It will also take support away from licensed practical nurses working in the facilities, McPherson claims. While Thorpe-Dorward confirmed the positions will be gone as of January, he disputed that it will take care away from residents. The change will actually increase the amount of one-on-one care residents

at the two facilities receive, from 2.73 hours per resident per day, to three hours, he said. Thorpe-Dorward noted that 16 RN positions will remain between the two buildings. In addition, the number of licensed practical nurses will grow by 13; and, additional care aides are being hired, he said. While McPherson conceded that hiring more LPNs is a positive, she said it “makes no sense” to take away the clinical support. “Effective healthcare delivery depends on teamwork, with RNs/ RPNs, LPNs and other healthcare

professionals working together,” she stated. BCNU spokesman Art Moses said affected staff only heard about the changes on Oct. 14. Thorpe-Dorward said they are part of a new care-delivery model that Fraser Health began implementing in June 2010. Peace Arch Hospital is the last site to transition to the new model; planning for the move began last month. Displaced nurses have been offered early retirement, education or orientation for different opportunities.

Patience pays off for Surrey schools t’s about time. On Monday morning, Surrey learned it will finally be able to build new school space for its ever-growing number of students. The provincial government announced $300 million in capital funding will be spent on 19 projects in seven school districts throughout B.C. We get our fair share; of the 19 projects, eight are in Surrey. The money will fund additions to two high schools – Fraser Heights and Panorama Ridge secondaries. Those two high schools currently have 30 portables between them. South Newton and East Clayton – both rapidly developing areas – will also be home to new elementary schools. And cash to purchase land for four new schools – two elementary and two secondary – was also given to the Surrey School District. Surrey Board of Education chairperson Laurae McNally summed the news up best: “It’s a wonderful day in the neighbourhood,” she repeated, in reference to children’s entertainer, Mr. Rogers. “We’re very happy.” The money couldn’t have come soon enough. Despite repeated appeals in recent years for help addressing an increasingly crowded situation, the district has received no new school capital funding since 2005. There are more than 250 portables perched on local school grounds and two Surrey high schools – including Earl Marriott in South Surrey – have had to adopt an extended timetable this year to accommodate their ever-burgeoning student populations. Although critics point out that Surrey needs six schools now and another eight in the next five years just to keep pace with growth, McNally said the new money addresses Surrey’s most immediate needs. But while the funding is most welcome, relief will not be felt anytime soon. Surrey will have to remain patient for a little longer. Even if construction were to start right away, it takes at least two or three years to build a school. Let’s get to work.

76 responding Saltspring Island mansion. (A surprising number of self-appointed smart-meter experts sell measuring and “shielding” services.) A reader sent me a local newspaper commentary by NelsonCreston MLA Michelle Mungall, basically a vague summary of NDP talking points about smart meters being too expensive and a possible health threat. This is interesting, because the City of Nelson owns its own power utility, which started installing wireless meters in 2004. They finished last year, with no protest. I asked Mungall why. She was on the city council that chose a different model, a “drive-by” meter. They broadcast readings every 15 seconds and still need meter readers, who no longer have get out of their trucks. BC Hydro’s meters signal only three or four times a day, but one of the oftenrepeated false claims about them is that they secretly transmit much more often with some sort of damaging energy pulses. And yet these granola-loving West Kootenay folks cheerfully endure a 24/7 bombardment of what are essentially brief cellphone signals. Mungall said Nelson council specifically rejected a smart-grid system, “because of the cost.” Somehow retaining meter readers saves the city money. She noted that rural parts of her constituency are serviced by BC Hydro, and some people are very concerned. I’ll bet they are. Not just in West Kootenay, but a few other remote areas known for production of B.C.’s numberone cash crop. Tom Fletcher is legislative reporter and columnist for Black Press.

Truth about consequences Editor: Everything you do affects others. Everything you do has consequences – some good, some bad. If you greet your neighbour with a warm, “Hi, nice to see you,” your neighbour will likely approach others in a pleasant manner for the rest of the day. If, instead, you give them an angry one-finger salute, they will likely not be very charming to you and others for some time. If you light up in a bus shelter, you might cause others to leave the shelter, or trigger an asthma attack. Someone threw a box of rotisserie chicken bones on the sidewalk along Crescent Road. Besides being unsightly litter, those bones posed a hazard to any animal that happened upon them. Any vet will tell you chicken bones shatter and splinter easily and can cause a lot of pain, expensive operations and even death. It’s like swallowing broken glass. Please, folks, try to think of what might happen before you do anything that might hurt others, and let’s keep one of the most beautiful places on Earth beautiful. Jerry Steinberg, Surrey

school startup in September. How many readers can manage without a paycheque for 10 weeks? While our province may be one of the richest, B.C. teachers are amongst the lowest paid. They have had no increase for years. Instead the government simply ignores and threatens teachers, preys on public ignorance on the subject and breaks or imposes contracts. Unfortunately, the government has tried to deflect criticism of its own performance by painting teachers and its union as the bad guys that must be crushed. Public and media lack of factual knowledge do not help matters. I suggest Bodenheimer spend a week with a teacher managing oversized classes, communicating with parents and marking endless assignments in the evening. She might better understand where teachers are coming from. Steve Morris, Surrey Q Re: Educational reality, Oct. 25 letters. I am pretty sick of hearing the teachers complain about their jobs. They knew what they where getting into before they even started. It has been 25 years since I attended high school and even then there were portables and 30-plus

students per classroom. So, unless these teachers complaining had their head in the sand, I have no idea why they are complaining now. Since Finland was mentioned, and how well they are educated, look at the ratios. Administration versus students – here, like the U.S. – for every dollar of tax for education, 10 per cent goes to the student and 90 per cent to administration. Finland, the gap is much closer. Now, if the government was able to reduce the salaries of public servants – who should have no union, since they are paid by the taxpayers – and not be held hostage by the unions, the payroll could be cut in half and the monies put back into the students and more specialists. If teachers are told to do a job and they refuse, fire them. They can be replaced. You are a public servant. You are there to educate our children. When my bosses overwhelm me with projects, I do them. If I refused, even if I had to do other people’s jobs, they would fire me, no question. I’m so glad to see the government taking a stand against the union. We elected this government, and you, public servants, should listen to what your bosses are telling you to do. Chris Gardner, Surrey

Perspective from a visitor Editor: My wife and I just returned home after a week in your beautiful city. We stayed in a condominium on Marine Drive. We spent many wonderful hours walking along the shore and to the end of the pier. We frequented the shops and various eating places on Marine Drive. All in all, it was a great little holiday for us. One drawback was the speeding on Marine Drive. Although the speed limit is posted at 30 km/h, very few obey the law. I was in traffic enforcement for years with the Hamilton Police Service and became quite adept at estimating speeds. Most cars travelled above the posted limit, some at 50-70 km/h and, in the early morning, as high as 80 km/h. What I found disturbing was the lack of enforcement. I did not see one police officer or police cruiser all the time I was there. I don’t know what the incidents of accidents are, but I found that stretch very dangerous. Charles Evans, Hamilton. Ont.

A line in the school sand Editor: Re: Teachers paid to do entire job, Oct. 13 letters. In reading the letter from Karen Bodenheimer, it was evident the writer is unfamiliar with the issues and impact of the teachers dispute. Teachers have withdrawn some administrative or non-compensated extra tasks that are not essential or part of the job-description function. With regards to “little Johnny” and classroom issues, parents can still communicate with their teachers. The fact is, many parents – as demonstrated by poor attendance at parent/teacher nights – don’t seem to care or be concerned. Incidentally, teachers are not paid to host these nights. The same goes for extracurricular activities. Teachers do this of their own volition, not as a requirement of the contract, and without compensation. Most labour unions would not allow their members to perform activities without compensation. Teachers have been an exception to that philosophy since they organized. While teachers are not submitting marks for report cards, parents may access their child’s marks online or by communicating with teachers. What many fail to realize is marking is not done during the school day. Many a teacher spends their Saturday or Sunday having to mark dozens of tests. If a child needs assistance or there are behavioural issues, teachers are still communicating with parents. Another myth is that teachers have summer off and are paid. Teachers are not compensated from school closing in June until

Seniors in residential care need three categories of nurses, writes BC Nurses’ Union president Debra McPherson.

e-mail:

Shift in nursing care ill-advised

editorial@ peacearchnews.com

File photo

Editor: Nurses are concerned about changes being implemented by Fraser Health that fail to address the growing needs of seniors in residential care at Peace Arch Hospital. The changes will undermine nurses’ ability to collaborate and support each other in providing care at the hospital’s Weatherbee and Dr. Al Hogg Pavillions. In a move designed to save the health authority money, licensed practical nurses (LPNs) will lose the support and collaboration of registered nurses (RNs)/ registered psychiatric nurses (RPNs) on their teams on each of the facilities’ floors. Instead, a total of eight RNs/RPNs will lose their jobs, with those remaining required to float as needed throughout the facilities, with no frontline care responsibilities. At a time when Fraser Health admits it must provide

care for “increasingly complex and frail elderly in the residential sector,” the decision to eliminate experienced RNs/RPNs from the bedside nursing teams is illadvised. The move to hire additional LPNs for the facilities is positive. Taking away from these health-care professionals the clinical support of RNs/RPNs makes no sense, unless the health authority’s priority is its bottom line, not residents’ needs. Effective health-care delivery depends on teamwork, with RNs/RPNs, LPNs and other health-care professionals working together. Seniors in residential care need more nurses in all categories, not fewer. Decisions about staffing levels and staffing mix must be made with regard to the needs of the residents, not according to the health authority’s bottom line. Debra McPherson, BC Nurses’ Union president

news Corroded arches, lamp standards replaced at cost of $414,900

Would you dump chemicals in your drinking water?

Pier repair work underway Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

Work began last week to replace lamp standards and arches on White Rock pier. The project – which was approved by council on a 4-2 vote – initiated Thursday and had to be largely completed by Monday (Oct. 31) to satisfy requirements for applying federal grant money to the cost. The corroded equipment was identified in September as a “severe personal injury” risk. A $414,900 contract was awarded to deal with it. Financial services director Sandra Kurylo told council at the September meeting that the project would consume $211,000 of $356,000 currently in the city’s undesignated capital reserve and nearly half of the $214,000 pier preservation reserve.

City website launched Ten months after announcing it was in the works, the City of White Rock has launched its new website. The new site, www.whiterockcity. ca, was launched last Tuesday (Oct. 25). Incorporating the city’s new brand, the colourful site is intended to be more user-friendly. Features on the new website

include social media, a high-contrast option and an RSS feed. Victoria-based Atomic Crayon was awarded the redesign contract last December. According to a staff report at that time, total cost of the project was to be less than $40,000, not including a monthly operating cost. - Tracy Holmes

White Rock woman shares struggles with Sjögren’s Syndrome

Raising awareness of ‘invisible disease’ Melissa Smalley

Staff Reporter

t’s a disease many Canadians may have never heard of – or aren’t able to pronounce properly – but the impact Sjögren’s Syndrome has on the lives of those suffering from it is impossible to ignore. Sjögren’s (pronounced ‘showgrins’) is an autoimmune disease in which the exocrine glands – those that produce saliva and tears – are attacked, resulting in, among many other symptoms, dry eyes and mouth. Though at first glance the symptoms may not seem serious, according to one local sufferer, the impact the disease has on her daily life is “dramatic.” White Rock’s Marilyn Mulldoon suffers from primary Sjögren’s Syndrome, meaning it is the main disease afflicting her body. Secondary, related ailments she suffers from include chronic sinisitus, vasculitus (blood vessel inflammation) and osteoarthritis in every joint in her body. At 58, Mulldoon likens living with Sjögren’s to “trying to ski through a sandy desert with a piano strapped to your back.” As a professional film and television actress, the disease has drastically limited the roles she is able to take. Extreme fatigue and joint pain prevent her from spending long hours on set and a sensitivity to special effects makeup also limits her acting options. Cataracts she developed as a result of constant dry eyes means she can’t drive in the dark – something she said anyone in the TV or film industry knows is essential to accommodate long, unusual hours. “Sjögren’s has very much affected how much I’m able to work,” Mulldoon said. “You can’t say to your agent, ‘OK, I’ll go audition for something, provided I’m not filming at night.’”

Melissa Smalley photo

Marilyn Mulldoon is raising awareness about Sjögren’s Syndrome, which she was diagnosed with more than a decade ago. Recently, tennis star Venus Williams (below) announced she had the disease.

Edwin Martinez photo

It’s not just her professional life that is affected by the disease. Any outdoor activities she wants to take part in have to be carefully thought out, as exposure to sun and wind affect her dry eyes and nasal cavity. Finishing a novel takes her months instead of days or weeks, because her eyes begin to ache after just a few minutes of reading.

Even sexual intercourse is a takes patients anywhere from five struggle for Sjögren’s sufferers to nine years to be diagnosed, but – 90 per cent of whom are women suspects that many sufferers are – because of the body’s lack of still falling through the cracks. ability to lubricate itself. “So many patients go in with Sjögren’s can have much more such a broad spectrum of serious implications, including symptoms, that many of them an increased risk of have been written off choking, nutritional as nutjobs, people ❝The road for malabsorption who need therapy or many has been and lymphatic or psychiatric evaluation,” humiliating to esophageal cancer. she said. “The road For Mulldoon, get to the day of for many has been however, the struggles humiliating to get to diagnosis.❞ she faces in her daily the day of diagnosis.

those suffering with symptoms. She runs the South Fraser support group, which meets in North Surrey every two months and hosts a variety of speakers who provide insight into the disease. The society also advocates for more awareness on the national and international level, and hopes that a recent high-profile diagnosis may help their cause. Earlier this year, tennis superstar Venus Williams withdrew from the US Open, saying she had recently been diagnosed with Sjögren’s. Though Mulldoon knows first-hand how devastating such a diagnosis can be, she said Williams’ speaking out about the disease brings potential for its heightened profile. “As much as it grieves me to see such an incredible athlete fall victim to this, I’m hoping Miss Williams will be approached by the Sjogren’s foundation in the States,” she said. “We need the awareness. People are still being written off as psychiatric nuisances.” Having experienced the long and frustrating process of reaching a diagnosis, Mulldoon advises those who think they may have Sjögren’s to take their health care into their own hands. A visit to the dentist is a great place to start, she said, as they are often the first to notice an unusually dry, damaged mouth. Attending a support group is also an important step to take, she said, because sufferers are able to exchange tips on how to deal with disease, and how to bring about more awareness of it. “Patients need to know they’re not contagious, they’re not infectious. They’re not alone, but it’s going to affect their lives dramatically.” The next Sjögren’s support group meeting in Surrey is set for Nov. 17 – for more information, call 1-888-558-0950, email info@ sjogrenscanada.org or visit www. sjogrenscanada.org

VPD Chief Jim Chu pins a medal on White Rock resident Rob Hannaford at a ceremony on Sept. 15.

Ex-cop honoured by VPD

Book a consultation to discuss your goals and your procedure.

A White Rock resident was one of 70 former police officers honoured by the Vancouver Police Department. Rob Hannaford said last week week he was surprised when he got the call from VPD chief, Jim Chu, informing him about the awards ceremony on Sept. 15 at the former Vanoc building at Boundary Road and Gravely Street, which will soon be the new headquarters for the VPD.

Dr. Harvey Strecker, MD, FRCSC

Hannaford, who was an officer with the VPD for 14 years, received a medal for outstanding service to the community and another for valour. The latter award was to commemorate Hannaford’s work during an armed bank robbery. “They took down three tellers, and my partner and I arrested the men and recovered the gun and the money,” said Hannaford. “I was quite honoured that they

remembered that. Chief Chu seems to have a knack for remembering members of the force.” In 1988, Hannaford left the VPD to work as a private investigator for ICBC until he obtained his real estate licence in August 1989. “It’s a very, very easy transition. I’m still following up on leads, except they’re called referrals and this time, the customer is always right, whereas before, they were usually wrong.”

lifestyles Invasive plant species removed during cleanup effort

Park volunteers get back to their roots Sarah Massah

M Black Press

ore than 50 volunteers dug in the dirt to remove invasive plants in Chantrell Park on Saturday morning. The volunteers, organized by the Sunnyside Acres Heritage Society and the Lower Mainland Green Team, removed Himalayan Blackberry roots and replaced them with native plants and trees, including Big Leaf Maples, Sitka Spruces and Western Red Cedars at the park, located near 22 Avenue and 140 Street. “It’s really important to remove the invasive plants because they outcompete our native plants – basically taking over – and then our native plants suffer,” said Lyda Salatian, organizer of the LMGT, a volunteer group comprising people from all over the Lower Mainland who work together once a month to help environmental groups in the region. With tools and gloves in hand, the volunteers worked for hours to remove a cubic metre of blackberry roots. If the blackberry plants had taken over, local wildlife would suffer, said Salatian, and by ensuring there is a variety of native plants, animals who live in the forest will be able to flourish. “With a wide variety of plants, there will be a wide variety of wildlife, eating and living in the area. It definitely makes it much better,” said Salatian. According to Salatian, invasive plants are often brought over from Europe as ornamentals but are discarded improperly.

Clockwise, from top left: Lower Mainland Green Team members Roger Phillips Nikit Lamba, Sheila Batin and Amanda Matton dig in during Saturday’s cleanup effort; Shawn Bergman sorts through shovels and potted plants; and Sunyoung Choo plants native species in the park. “Unfortunately, people can buy them at some garden centres for potted plants and then will throw them over their fence, thinking they’re doing some good, but then they will grow and it just takes off from

there,” Salatian said. Organizers chose the park to enhance habitat because it is a natural corridor to Sunnyside Acres Urban Forest. For information about the Lower

Mainland Green Team, visit the group’s website, www.meetup.com/the-lowermainland-green-team or for information about Sunnyside Acres Society go to www. sunnysideacres.ca

What to do with Jack With Halloween now a thing of the past, Metro Vancouver officials are appealing to residents to consider options other than the trash for their jack-o’-lanterns. Suggestions include a reminder to residents of single-family homes that they may add their pumpkins to their yardtrimmings container. Those who compost are encouraged to add their chopped-up gourds to backyard, kitchen or balcony composters; or, shredded pumpkin chunks can be placed in a shallow trench dug into a vegetable or flower garden. It’s estimated at least 200,000 pumpkins were carved in Metro Vancouver this year. The number equates to 1,000 metric tonnes of the gourds. If added to landfills, the pumpkins will contribute to the creation of methane, a greenhouse gas. By diverting them from the dumps, about 500 tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent is eliminated.

…on the Semiahmoo Peninsula

Plenty of Peninsula athletes reach podium at Aldergrove Lake trail race

Clifford leads charge at Fraser Valleys Nick Greenizan

Sports Reporter

eninsula runners fared well on the trails of Aldergrove Lake Wednesday, at Fraser Valley Cross-Country Championships, and none moreso than Earl Marriott’s Deon Clifford, who won the senior boys race. Clifford captured top spot out of 194 runners, clocking a time of 21 minutes, 35.16 seconds in the 6.4-km race – seven seconds quicker than second-place runner Tim Delcourt of Kwantlen Park Secondary. Lawrence Viola of Coquitlam’s Heritage Woods was third, crossing the line in 21:51.72. Clifford’s feat was even more impressive considering he was running hurt, and nearly skipped the race altogether after suffering a rugby injury the week before. The week prior to the Fraser Valley race, Clifford, playing for Bayside’s U18 team against a touring English side, took an inadvertent knee to the jaw when he went to make a tackle. He “got his bell rung” according to his dad, Jim, and was thought to have suffered a concussion. Mild headaches the next few days curtailed his training for the cross-country meet, but by Wednesday’s race, he deemed himself in good enough shape to compete. And while his head injury did not bother him during the race, his lack of training nearly caught up with him at the end. “He had to push very hard to the end… he collapsed (in exhaustion) after the race, and did his handshakes lying on his back,” his father explained. Clifford was the only Peninsula runner to finish in the top 15, although Seaquam Seahawks’ runner Michael Milic, from Delta, was fifth. White Rock Christian’s Jake Newman and Tyus Allen finished 16th and 20th, respectively, and Semiahmoo’s Jalen Sekhon was 19th. And though they had no runner inside the top 15, WRCA – who had 16 runners in the senior boys race – proved there is strength in numbers by placing third overall in team standings. Earl Marriott was fourth overall. In the 4.5-km senior girls race, Semiahmoo’s Alison Williams narrowly missed finishing on the podium, placing fourth. W.J. Mouat’s Alex Seimens and Walnut Grove’s Ashley Windsor – two of the favourites to win heading into the race – took first and second, respectively. Earl Marriott’s Ally Ginther placed sixth in the five-km run and her EMS teammate, Melanie Oster, rounded out the top 10. Earl

Marriott finished fourth overall in team standings, and Semiahmoo placed sixth. In the junior girls run, also a 4.5-km circuit, Semi Totems’ Chelsea Ribeiro grabbed the gold medal with a time of 17:42.50 – 29 seconds ahead of MEI Eagles’ Alicia Unruh, who was second. Fleetwood Park’s Aliesha Ferraby rounded out the podium finishers in third place. Elgin Park’s Kate Mason placed eighth in

the race, while her teammate, Esmee SmitAnseeuw, was 15th; Elgin placed third overall in junior girls team standings. Peninsula runners also stood out in the junior boys 5.4-km race, led by Aksel SmitAnseeuw, who was fourth overall, just 15 seconds behind the winner, Jesse MacDuff of G.W. Graham Secondary. Semiahmoo’s Brandon Figueroa was fourth, Elgin’s Mason Lin eighth and Lord

Tweedsmuir’s Liam Mckay was 10th. In the Grade 8 girls race, Semiahmoo pulled off a rare clean sweep – Totems’ runners finished took the top four sports in the five-km trail run. Julia Greer led the way, following by Dominika Paige and Lara Lauer, in second and third place respectively, and Emily Liang placed fourth, just three seconds back of Lauer. No other Peninsula runners placed in the top 10, but Marriott’s Alexis Ewacha was 11th and Sammi Klymchuk 14th. Semi’s Connor Jackson was third in the Grade 8 boys race, and EMS runner Jackson Silvester-Lee was sixth. Runners now prepare for provincial championships, which hit the trail this weekend in Kelowna.

Deltaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Seaquam Seahawks senior girls volleyball team captured its first Peace Arch News Classic title Saturday evening at Semiahmoo Secondary, after a win over the defending champion Surrey Christian Falcons. Prior to the event, tournament co-ordinator Gord Houchen, a teacher at Semi and coach at Clayton Heights, said itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s often said of the tourney that â&#x20AC;&#x153;whoever wins the PAN Classic, wins provincials,â&#x20AC;? and that could very well be the case again this year, as the Seahawks are the provinceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s No. 1-ranked AAA team. The two-day tournament, now in its 20th year running, was staged Friday and Saturday at all three South Surrey public high schools â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Elgin Park, Earl Marriott and Semiahmoo, with Saturdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s championship-round games hosted at Semi. Rounding out the top-three

finishers were the Earl Marriott Mariners, who were ranked fifth in AAAA provincial rankings heading into the PAN Classic. Houchenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Clayton Heights squad, thirdbest in B.C. AAA rankings, placed fourth, losing to EMS in the bronze-medal game. Other Peninsula squads in the mix were the Elgin Park Orcas, who placed tied for seventh, Elgin Parkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s junior girls team, which finished 19th out of 24 teams, and Semiahmoo, which finished tied for 21st with a handful of squads (games to determine a teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s exact placing were not played beyond the top six positions). Surrey Christianâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Rachel Windhorst was named tournament MVP, while all-star nods went to Breanna Evoy (Clayton Heights), Tess Frey (Clayton Heights), Tessa Davis (Earl Marriott), Kyra Tomei (Seaquam), Karli Flemmer (Seaquam) and Kim Dejaeger (Surrey Christian).

Morley scores five as Eagles earn weekend split Nick Greenizan Sports Reporter

A bad start and a poor finish – with one strong period in between – was enough to doom the Surrey Eagles Sunday in a 6-3 loss to the visiting Nanaimo Clippers. The Clippers, who sit just one point back of the Eagles for second place in the BC Hockey League’s Coastal Conference, pounced on the Eagles early with three firstperiod goals – with the first coming

off the stick of Brett Hartskamp just 1:21 into the game – to take a 3-0 lead at the first intermission. The Eagles regrouped, however, and scored twice in the second frame – with both goals coming on the power play from captain Tyler Morley. The third period, however, was dominated again by Nanaimo, as the Clips outscored the home team 3-1 over the final 20 minutes. Andrew Gladiuk had a pair, includ-

ing one into an empty net with 1:27 left on the clock, to give him the hat trick – he also scored a power-play goal in the first period – and Colton Cyr had Nanaimo’s other goal. Forward Charles Orzetti, with assists from Matt Esposito and Brandon Tanev, had the Eagles’ lone goal in the period. Andrew Hunt started in goal for Surrey, but was pulled in favour of backup Conor Barrie for the final two periods.

The loss to Nanaimo came just two days after an overtime victory in Coquitlam Friday – Surrey edged the Express by a 4-3 score. Morley again led the Eagles, potting a hat trick. His third goal was also the game-winner, coming on a power-play with 32 seconds left in OT. Despite opening the scoring on a goal from rookie blue-liner Devon Toews, the Eagles trailed 2-1 after 20 minutes. Morley tied the game

43 seconds into the second period, and each team scored once in the third to keep the game tied after regulation time expired. Hunt went the distance for Surrey, stopping 30 shots. Surrey plays tomorrow (Wednesday) in Chilliwack against the Chiefs, before settling in for six straight home games at South Surrey Arena, starting Friday against Victoria and Saturday against Coquitlam.

Early vision testing for children helps learning 604-536-4999

www.whiterockoptometry.com

Your child looks up to you. But how they really see you may be different than you think. One in five children has a vision disorder. Not knowing any differently, many of these children accept poor vision as normal. If vision problems remain untreated, kids with great potential are left lagging behind in learning. Taking your child to an eye doctor for a complete eye health and vision exam should begin at 6

months, then at 3 years and then once a year while the child is in school. An optometrist can complete a vision check even if your child doesn’t know their ABC’s. The whole experience is fun and child friendly. Many serious eye conditions don’t have obvious symptoms. A thorough eye exam by an eye doctor is the only way to know for sure. If vision problems are detected, the optometrists at White Rock Optometry can prescribe corrective lenses or vision therapy enabling your child to quickly catch up to their peers. At White Rock Optometry, we have a wide selection of frames for toddlers to teens that make wearing glasses something to look forward to. If your child or teen is active or doesn’t like the idea of glasses, the doctors can recommend and provide the proper instruction for daily disposable contact lenses for most children as young as 10.

EXPERIENCING HAND PAIN?

$48 FACIAL TREATMENT

A thorough eye exam is the only way to know if your child has vision problems, but a parent can be the first to detect early symptoms. Take an interactive quiz at www.absee.ca to determine if there are early warning signs of eye problems in your child. White Rock Optometry has been serving the families of the peninsula since 1982. Our patients and doctors are also proud supporters of Optometry Giving Sight. This global fundraising initiative aims to provide sight to the 670 million people who are blind or visually impaired simply because they do not have a pair of glasses. This year, we will be celebrating World Sight Day on October 13. Come visit White Rock Optometry for all your eye care needs. We are open evenings and Saturdays for your convenience. New patients are always welcome.

This isn’t a time to joke about your feelings. Take them seriously and enjoy thinking about what is important to you. You are heading towards great inner clarity.

Pluto causes your plans to be delayed for the time being. Things are not happening as you had expected, but remember that this is only a temporary situation.

TAURUS

SCORPIO

You might go on a trip during which you will learn many things. Even if you stay at home, you will acquire some new knowledge that pertains to your work.

You must put some order into your work. You find yourself wanting things to be easier, but don’t worry: you will find answers to things you previously thought had no solution.

You find yourself thinking a lot about the past. On the one hand, you need people to be frank with you, but on the other, you sense that some people just don’t see things as you do.

LEO You are becoming closer to certain people who were very important to you in the past. Your friendship with them was a wonderful experience for you, and you remember it with fondness.

This week your ideas bring you luck. Venus causes you to feel truly understood by those whom you take into your confidence. This is great for you.

You no longer know if you want to continue living where you are now. You are very hesitant at the moment, especially concerning some people in your entourage. This is worrying you a lot.

AQUARIUS

You have great hopes. You love being useful to others, and service will soon bring you a great deal of satisfaction. You bring good fortune to others.

PISCES

You can’t quite figure out how to organize certain financial matters. Soon everything will become easier for you and you will feel better. Just don’t panic: you will be able to move through this peacefully.

This week you feel in great shape. You have a good chance of success, especially if you are in a period of change. It feels good to trust yourself.
